Something that I find so special about that article is that daniel is the only person on the grid who could give that interview. No other driver could have provided such an extremely personal view on Max and what he has accomplished. Daniel could give that insight because he’s been there since the beginning. Sure you have other drivers who’ve known Max as long or longer but Daniel played a significant role in Max’s growth and has felt the impact of Max and his talent perhaps more than any other driver. And even when it was difficult he always appreciated and respected Max for who he is both as a person outside of the sport and as driver with insane talent and ability. That article used just about every label imaginable to describe what they’ve been to each other over the years but through it all It’s just Max and Daniel and i think that’s pretty neat.

thinking about how aziraphale loves quietly and yet still so loudly, and how crowley loves loudly and yet still so quietly

when i say that azi loves quietly but still so loudly, he doesn’t really say it but he shows it, and it’s so obvious. between the two of them, aziraphale wasn’t the one to make the loud declarations of love, he’s always just receiving it, but it doesn’t mean it isn’t there. you can always see from his expressions, his eyes, his little and big smiles, the little gestures, the touches — he’s so quiet in a verbal sense, but his actions always speak louder than words.

crowley, on the other hand, is the one to do all those dramatic declarations, the offers to run away, the one to always say they’re on their own side. he’s the one to say what they were both feeling but never thought to acknowledge for the past 6000 years. he expresses what he thinks through words. and yet, he’s still so quiet, not knowing what to say nor do most of the time when he’s with his angel. he’s impulsive, and rash, and even at his confession, that even though he planned it, he still has to say it all in a rush. and he still couldn’t say it directly. and he can’t exactly express the feelings through his eyes because they’re covered most of the time, and to avoid aziraphale from knowing his true feelings after the confession, he covers them up again. so, in a way, he also loves quietly, because there are still words that remain unsaid.

I think it’s safe to say both Gojo and Geto had a problem opening their hearts after they separated. Like an emotional scar they never resolved.

It’s kinda Husband & Wife-coded imho. (Husband&Husband, Wife&Wife, whatever - you get my drift).

Geto at his death asked about his family. He wasn’t concerned about how they’d mourn for him or considered if they’d want him saved, etc. Like the scrolls adorning the back of the temple, he didn’t view himself to be much if he couldn’t be strong - punishment to the weak and foolish.

Gojo upon the lead up to the battle seemed to believe he would win either way (aligned with what he told Megumi) and that wasn’t bothered with his body - but he admittedly did feel annoyed that his longest living friend, Shoko, wasn’t upset on his behalf. (I HC that I think he understood that there was no other person who had love for him like with Geto.)

Spoilers for 261:

Given the circumstances, Shoko also had to do what was necessary to support him, regardless of her feelings towards the request. She has always been respectful of boundaries I think. More avoidant with her feelings (remaining stoic) rather than ambivalent. She is a medic after all... you have to put aside your personal feelings.

To some extent both Gojo and Geto it difficult to regard themselves as worthy of loving and genuine care. People may have cared like Geto’s family etc. but the problem lies in their ability to recognise and reciprocate it. He felt alone and couldn’t smile sincerely in his life. It was easier for him to give love than to receive it.

Gojo had a few students who did, but they perhaps came at a time too late (it was mere months after Geto died?) where he didn’t have the time to actually open up his heart too much in the end... before he was sealed, and then had to make the decision to enter the battle. Fortunately, by that time, he didn’t feel lonely anymore as he said in ch236 after death, but there was certainly a line where he didn’t feel he could be understood by others. He was born too different, perhaps? His pragmatic and callous facade made it difficult for others to get close enough to see the real Gojo Satoru. A part of it was about unparalleled strength. The magnitude of it. It wasn’t something Sukuna understood either, since he never knew love and lost it.

We can see that Gojo held different standards for Geto than he did himself though. In the anime many speculated that he was bringing the bouquet for Geto’s grave (or something similar). He must’ve given his body back to Mikiko and Nanako (or hidden it) because he didn’t have it processed & cremated by Shoko, (which would’ve been completely adhering to the orders of the institution). He also wanted to reclaim it for a proper burial from Kenjaku.

This feels so much like a husband & wife thing.

Widowed Husband goes: “Ah, just toss my ashes in the river.” But will get his wife flowers for her grave, ensure she has a clean gravestone, no weeds growing on her plot, leaves a plate out during anniversaries, etc.

Gojo’s love for Geto is also very Yang-coded (which is inherently more male) where he will cling on unwaveringly and there is something about reverence in how he patiently accepts Geto and tried to fulfil everything he wanted. In this sense, where he is portrayed as a loyal widower, he may surround himself with friends, activities, look after the kids, etc. but he will always honour and cherish his wife until his dying day.

Geto who is Yin-coded loves maternally, self-sacrificially. She will be willing to make sacrifices for the sake of her kin. Even if separated from her husband, she will nurture and build a family around her, uncomplaining. She may appear to cope on the surface, as she is used to her emotional needs being unmet without her partner/Husband, until her own dying day.

This is totally anecdotal of course, but to give myself some credit, I’ve talked intimately with more than my fair share of people in grief to see a pattern (and understand it in a personal level too)... we all grieve differently, love differently, value different things...

This is just my two cents. Any thoughts?

Feel free to comment or reblog with your own take.

Literally love their lil couple matching outfit moments

Since I’m pretty new to tumblr, I felt like sharing some silly/fluffy zukka hc snippets that I haven’t put into writing form or they’re too short to turn into fics.

Zuko once made the mistake of calling Sokka his ‘panda lily’ and, despite being grown and kind of mature now, Sokka still sulked for an entire day because it wasn’t manly

The gaang go on a camping trip for old time’s sake but Zuko and Sokka keep Toph awake with their tent shenanigans, so Toph stands outside their tent at dawn and yells: WAKE UP FALL, proceeding to cause a mini rock fall around their tent. Our two favourite dumbasses cling on to each other, thinking it’s a real rock fall in the middle of the damn woods. Sokka laughs at the ‘wake up call’ pun later around the campfire

Zuko leaves a scroll of parchment under Sokka’s pillow for him to find and he titles it: Things of Utmost Importance to the Firelord. Sokka panics when he finds it and unrolls it more, thinking he’s been a terrible consort, but it just says: Sokka and Druk (Zuko rethinks this stance at 2am when Sokka is practicing boomerang throws in his sleep while Zuko is trying to cuddle him and Druk is singeing holes in their pillows because he’s dreaming about chasing Momo)

When Aang finally regales them all with the tale of Zuko rescuing him from Zhao dressed as the Blue Spirit, Sokka is super annoyed that this hot sounding alter ego with really tight black clothing, swords, and flexibility to make him faint is now at the bottom of Lake Laogai. He carves Zuko a new Blue Spirit mask based on Aang’s story and it looks nothing like the original. Zuko forgot to mention the one he threw into the lake was a copy

If anyone else wants to share theirs, please do, I love reading them on here ❤️

the ladybug and black cat are the two most powerful miraculous because of the wish

the ladybug and black cat are the two most powerful miraculous because of the wish

when they say that they’re the most powerful miraculous in the show they’re not saying they’re the most effective in battle or that their holders are meant to be equals in every way, it’s about the wish. it’s about the power to combine them to change reality. so no the black cat holder doesn’t need to have an equal number of magic powers as the ladybug because that statement isn’t about the holders. and yes some of the other holders like the rabbit might have more effective powers than the holders of the ladybug and black cat. it’s not about that. it’s about the magic jewelry themselves.

Been a long day; I think I deserve to draw some monkes for comfort

All posts about my primate designs are now under #Making Mystic Monkeys! Feel free to read about em over there!

I updated my Wukong design a wee bit! Now his fur patterns resemble cracks to really sell the “stone” idea. They fuse together after his experience in the furnace, leaving a more speckled look in their place :]

(What do you mean that’s not how rocks work?)

Day 58

[littencloud9]

i need to add that i adore how their designs are made for each other. aside the obvious white/black hair + right/left imagery, noé has black sleeves, white pants, black socks. and vanitas has white sleeves, black pants, white socks. they also wear opposite colour gloves. noé’s design in a lot more simple, with a smaller bow and thin belt, while vanitas has much more fabric on him and a bigger belt

idk. their designs balance each other out super well. it’s like they were designed together

i think rafa just posting the video as is and ronen posting it with “hot in here” is the simplest and most perfect representation of them
