#theyre friendship is everything to me

[grave-z-boy]

Rewatching doom patrol and I love larry and rita’s friendship so much. Season 3 episode 1 these mf made MAKING SANDWITCHES a two person job. Just say they could talk. Sick.

gaz has the most embarrassing little girl ass laugh ever and no one can change my mind. when hes just barely laughing its just a chuckle or a little huff, normal sounding, but if he gets going he is GIGGLING. full on squeaky TEEHEEHEHE type shit.

hes also absurdly ticklish. soap tortures him with it incessantly. they’ll be sitting in the rec room, scrolling on their phones or whatever, and soap will just glance over at kyle from the corner of his eye with this fuckass smirk and gaz goes into panic mode like “NO NO FUCK OFF DONT DO IT” before soap attacks him

Guess which spideys r on the mind ^_^

learning abt friendship decay and "not reaching out to your friends for months at a time unprompted is not neurotypical behaviour" has me feeling a certain way

[sea-buns]

I really like how Fig answers Gorgug's question about if she still needs him on the drums:

"Or course I do! Although I have learned how to play myself."

Like technically she doesn't need him on drums for the reason he's asking, since she's fully capable of filling in for him. Which implies that the "of course" was about needing him.

"Of course I do! You're my guy, my bestfriend, my drummer."

Fig could learn every instrument and Gorgug could invent machines to play every single one of them autonomously, but it would always go back to just them.

🪆Momo and Tokoyami being my favorite underrated duo pt 3🐦‍⬛

Bonus: If they did a collab for a beauty commercial their products would be sold out instantly💰👏

telling myself i can't start another tdwt rewrite but dear god do i want to write one focusing on alejandro and courtney in this weird situationship thats a lot more nuanced than just alejandro manipulating courtney and her falling for it. like theyre best friends they dont trust each other theyre the same person they dont know anything about the other one theres a mutual attraction theyre pining for other people theyre codependent they dont care about each other theyre platonic soulmates like i just want to do a deep dive into how messy that relationship couldve been building off of their friendship that exists in my head except the line between romantic and platonic is so fucking blurred they have no idea what they are to the other person

thinking about the silly dead detectives again. anyways, i remember vaguely the actor who plays edwin saying he’s not upset by charles not being in love with him back and honestly kinda real cause yeah maybe they won’t kiss and hold hands and go on dates and whatever else couples do but does that matter when they have everything else? they love and care for each other, they are each other’s protectors, they support each other and are stronger together, charles would go to hell for no one else and they have vowed to stay with each other forever. isn’t that what love is at the end of the day?

Shinjiham is cute when it’s romantic but tbh I think i vastly prefer the idea of them being best friends instead. Like, neither of them really saw it coming and weren’t really looking to get another best friend (Shinji has Akihiko, Kotone has Junpei and Yukari respectively) but it happens anyway. Kotone takes a liking to Shinji much faster than she does anyone else and I’d say a big reason is just the fact that he’s so reserved that it allows Kotone to do most of the talking while he just listens and they love this arrangement cuz Kotone doesn’t get to talk about her own interests very much. Though I think some of her needs to talk to Shinji stems from this insecurity that he isn’t happy in the group and she has this people pleasing problem and wants everyone to be happy so she makes a much bigger effort to talk to Shinji. And it’s very unfortunate because Shinji intentionally acts cold and distant because he doesn’t want to form any attachments because he wants to die soon, but aaaaaaaagh dammit this girl just keeps talking to him and being sweet and encouraging him to engage in his interests and share them with the others and he just can’t seem to say no when she’s got those damn puppy eyes. And Kotone is just able to get him out of his shell by being persistent but not in an overwhelming way, she’s very cheerful and supportive of him. And Shinji is able to offer her support by encouraging her to talk about herself and by making sure she’s taking care of herself. They just click really well and make such a positive dent in each other’s lives and it’s all about basic acts of kindness going a long way you know?

A HEAARRRRT IS A HOUSE FOR LOOVE AND IVE LEARRNNED THAT IT DONT TAKE MUCH TO BREAK A HEAARTT

sorry I just had to get that out lol I love that damn movie. That film, the temptations film (Paul and Cornbread my loves) and the little richard biopic will always have Leon as one of my fav actors idc idcccc also it took me way too long to find out the five heartbeats weren't a real group 🤣

IS A HOUSE ! FOR LOVE !

And I've LEARNED ( ive leaarnnned!!) 🗣‼️‼️

NO NO, DONT SAY SRRY FOR HAVING GOOD TASTE. NEVER BE SRRY FOR HAVING GOOD TASTE !!!!

ALL ur takes are MWAH. Just MWAH.

PAUL AND CORNBREAD LOL!! THE LOVES!. OUR BEAUTIFUL LOVES!!!. UGH. UGH. IM SO OBSESSED WITH THESE MOVIES. BOTH!! OF THESE GROUPS ARE REAL AS LONG AS U BELIEVE!!!

& i know dresser ran to that limo once he heard Eddie begging for his job back (our poor softie gentleman baritone baby..) but i think somebody should be jt's moral compass bcs duck is just 😭 sick of him

Leon deserved SO MANY MORE major movie roles just by being beautiful and bitchy like . His 50 cent movie cameo was so fucking funny.. TY FOR SAYING THIS. GENUINELY. I AM SO GLAD SOMEONE ELSE LOVES THESE MOVIES TOO. The characters are hilarious and tragic and I am. Infatuated with them all. They all have their lil moments to solidify them as real or to reflect them being real and it's just. Mwah.

Eddie almost at rock bttm begging for his job back bcs he loves music. He Loves. Music. But he has trauma so much trauma but he's Trying. He's trying so hard and then he opens his coat to reveal he still has their old performance uniform but makes a funny noise:

something something about Greed leaving a hole in Ling's mind And heart that he's never quite sure how or if he can even fill it ever again. never sure if anyone will even understand him as much, will tolerate him as much, will know him so deeply and truly. always knowing that he can never trust someone nearly as much as someone who knew his entire heart and body and soul. forever leaving him with the guilt that he couldn't save his best friend, who never had the opportunity to live in peace despite desperately loving and fighting to protect everything dear to him. is that anything

(alsoooo im losing my mind so. if Anyone wants to talk abt fullmetal or join my discord then haiii hiiii heyyyy (pls dm me pls))

[texeoghea]

i found my sketchbook guys. returning to my roots

[messrsrarchives]

oof we're the same, in my head remus is the only person in the hp world with the amount of patience and predisposition to understand severus because he was willing to trust him and was adult enough to REALLY have that kind of "let bygones be bygones" sort of mentality. he was calmly defending snape from HARRY of all people. i really don't see severus with anyone else unless people make up an oc especially designed for him, lol. i'm a snily and snupin solo shipper 😣

YES YOU GET ME !!!

remus is the only person who would understand him in my mind !! they have such similar backgrounds and personalities and experiences and he has the patience to unpick it all !! and he has the chance to in POA era !!

THIS MEANS SO MUCH TO ME !!! he defended him to HARRY. (see here: poa era remus convincing snape to see the lily in harry, not just the james, and eventually harry himself - BOOM! severitus)

you get me. you GET me.

there's a very special place in my heart for long term m/f friendships where theyre like soulmates but not romantically speaking. They're each other's true love but in a gay non-romantic way and it could never work romantically bcuz that is not the context of their relationship. unfortunately there are only like 3 good examples of this trope and theyre Not Good shows

I love reading fanfics that don't rely solely on byler interactions.

There's nothing wrong with focusing on mike and will and their dynamic, but I wish we got more byler fics that HEAVYLY feature the party.

Mike and will have lives outside of their relationship. Their bond with dustin, lucas, max and el is not less important just because it's platonic. So let me see them interacting with their best friends, the ones who would do the impossible to keep their party safe and sound, who would be so supportive and so so happy for mike and will.

They're. Best. Friends.

So let me see it. Show will and lucas confide in each other, lessening their burdens and talking through their problems. Show me how much lucas, the boy who risked venturing alone in the woods, in a lab full of the "bad guys", cares about will byers. Show me will being there for lucas, taking care of him when he can't bring himself to get up from max's bedside and rest. And show me mike and lucas actually talking and solving their issues from s4, let mike apologize for missing lucas game, the one that mattered. And let mike have his breakdown for lucas to pick him up.

Show me mike and dustin navigating through their grief, let them cry for eddie and carry his legacy onwards. And for god's sake show me will and dustin, standing side by side ready to carry on to another fight. Show me how much will loves dustin and how much they missed being around each other, because the party needed will in Hawkins and will really needed a trademark dustin hug!

Show me mike and max and their silly little bickering! They love each other and everyone knows that insults and half hearted jabs are just their love language!! Show me how much seeing max in that hospital bed fucked mike wheeler over, let him read to her when lucas can't bring himself to do it, when his voice fails him, let mike help her when she wakes up and has to do copious amounts of physiotherapy, when she wakes up and hates the way everyone treats her like shes made of glass and mike is always there to be a bitch to her - which is their normal. They understand each other, being so similar and all so they call each other out on their bullshit. And please I BEG YOU show me madwise bonding over their shared ud trauma, their complicated family dynamics and let them see how similar (despite their obvious differences) they are. Show me will, max and el being a menace of a trio, let them have sleepovers. Show me will drawing max just like he remembers her - so full of life and movement and color with her fiery red hair and attitude. And show me him finding her again and being a key to get her back from wtv hellscape dimension she went. Let them make jokes at their own expense, use dark humor to cope with the horrors while simultaneously terrorizing everyone with their awful no good actually horrifying jokes - they still think they're hilarious, even though mike and lucas say otherwise.

And finally, show me willel - the wonder twins! - being family, because they're bonded by something much more powerful than blood. Show me the silly little things they did to pass time during their 6 months in California and how will and el went from being strangers with a connection to the ud to no one even questioning their sibling status because after the initial strain, it comes naturally to them. Show me will being the older brother that jonathan was to him, show me willel dancing and singing to 80s pop music, show me one of them having trouble sleeping and the other being there to keep them company - because there's no one else in the world that can understand them better then the other, even with the different circumstances. Let me see el and will help each other through their lonely days in California, let them be each other's anchor.

And let mike and el be friends!!!!! Mike was el's first real friend and that's fucking important too! It's everything! They care so much and it pains me to see fics where after the breakup, mike and el basically don't interact as if mike wheeler didn't love her - just because it's not romantic doesn't mean it's less real.

The kids and their friendship are such an integral part of the show and even then - for plot reasons - the party spends most of it's on screen time fragmented. In s1 we're missing will, s2 it's eleven alone, byler as a duo and henclair + max, s3 is missing dustin and s4 is the same as s2. Still, they're best friends, all of them.

I'm just sad we don't really see them all, I guess. I just want a +100k fic that delves deeply into byler but also everyone in the party because I love them so much and they deserve the world!!

thinking abt tjat question about how jax reacted when he first arrived to the circus being answered with just “not well” paired with it being stated in ep 2 that ragatha took a while to fully adjust
