oughggh something that makes me insane about the dynamic between Akihiro and Laura is that they're both outcasts who see themselves as Different than everyone else but the contrast is that Laura in the early days doesn't understand a lot of social skills and societal rules even if she has some idea she has a hard time following by them. but she Wants So Badly to be like other people, to be Human, she wants to fit in and she tries so hard to because she wants to be good, she wants to be better than her upbringing.
Meanwhile Akihiro has always understood societal rules and expectations, social skills, etc and is able to use them to fit in perfectly into whatever role he is playing at the moment, but he doesn't actually Care about following them at all. He's an outcast who has always viewed himself as being different than everyone else and he doesn't care at all about fitting in or trying to live in human rules. Because he doesn't care about anyone else, he doesn't want to do good, he likes hurting people because he has lost sight of their relevance.
It sets up such an interesting contrast between the two of them, Akihiro can fit in but he doesn't want to, Laura can't fit in but she wants to. Akihiro was groomed to be a killer and it's all he wants to be, Laura was created to be a killer but she wants to be good. Akihiro doesn't understand why Laura wants to do good and wants to fit in when she has such power, Laura doesn't understand why Akihiro limits himself by separating himself from society. They intrigue each other because they come from such similar places but have such different values and goals. But Akihiro is especially intrigued by why she is like this, and seeing this in her is what helped him change to be more like her.
#i think a HUGE part of why there is this difference between them is that#laura was literally FORCED to be a killer from the moment she was born. she had no choice. no other option.#she saw other Normal people living their normal and happy lives and wanted that for herself#because she never had that#akihiro on the other hand Was normal#had a normal life#and it was so traumatizing and shitty for him#where he was ostracized by normal people#so when he was given the chance to be Not Normal#to hurt back the society that had hurt him#he took it#obviously he was groomed and manipulated towards this#but i think his upbringing had a Huge part of this#theyre so fascinating.#fav: maybe power is all i have. or all i need#fav: no one owns me! i’m not a thing. i’m laura kinney! i’m the daughter of sarah. i’m the daughter of logan. i’m wolverine!!#r: i’m not here for the island#akihiro#laura kinney#x men

yknow i dont go here but sometimes i gotta go: seriously respect clowns. they have the worst pop culture representation in the world and also the best most thorough honor code. they're just here to be silly little guys who bring joy and are very conscientious about doing so responsibly. let them to their merriment in peace you dont hafta take potshots. i dont go here but like maybe i should, you all seem super chill
#my posts#im mad bc i saw a clown knight adoptable which fascinated me as a concept and then someone bought him and made him evil :(#thats so. boring. its SO BORING IM SORRY THERES A COOL CONCEPT IN THERE BUT THATS THE BORING WAY#maybe ill make my OWN oath of clowning paladin someday#...wait that's actually GOTTA be a dnd subclass somebody's made at some point#anyway also the occasional YouTuber taking potshots and being mean like you dont need to do that theyre just minding their own business :(#we should all strive to be sillier and weirder and more kind forever

the fritter (frin critter)
#inspo struck right after posting the last two. some kind of a hermit crab. a snail#they think they look all cool and mysterious under their safety shelter but if u remove it they're a disastrous puffball of uncombed fur#the hat is not accurate to an adult human btw. i tried to put them in a full size hat and they were lost forever. this is a child sized hat#they need to swap out for bigger hats as they grow#MY FRIENDS WROTE AND DREW SO MUCH FOR THE FRITTER I HOPE THEY CAN REBLOG AND ADD BC THEYRE SO GOOD <3#we started making a whole au about critter species in the wild and how they interact and survive. very fascinating.#i need to collect all the worldbuilding into one place eventually. rn all i'll say is.. overworked odile petsmart employee (tealgoat's idea#isat critters#isat#in stars and time#isat siffrin#my art#a6se/twohats (this tag only) implication then is that loop is bald i guess aksdks. loop = wild shorthair. fritter = domestic longhair.

"yellowfang? what are you doing in bluestars den? well its none of my business" -fireheart, probably
[ID: a digital painting of Bluestar and Yellowfang, two battle-scarred gray cats, from Warrior Cats. They are cuddling in loaf positions in a den with sunlight streaming in, looking towards the entrance with slight smirks. The image is drawn in a semi-realistic art style with soft colors and shading. End ID]
#me seeing people pair bluestar and yellowfang together: Yeah ill incorporate that into my belief system#i think this totally could have happened its just that the first arc was entirely from firehearts point of view#and he doesnt know about gay people. if he did he would have realized hes bisexual and mated with graystripe#he thinks ravenpaw and barley are such good friends#warrior cats#warriors#wc#bluestar#yellowfang#yellowblue#greenshipping#bluestar x yellowfang#yellowfang x bluestar#art#2024#really though this yuri is so big brained. they both had forbidden romances and forbidden kits that were doomed#and theyre both mother figures to fireheart#and like. theyre often chilling in starclan together after they both die LOL#I just think its fascinating.

getting in that spooky spirit
#ive had this on my mind for a while#and what better time to make it reality than octobor first#these stupid little skeletons for things that Should Not Have Skeletons fascinate me so much#we need more of them and they should all be wildly incorrect#i was too lazy to draw n in the second panel hes just offscreen#swapped his hand for one with a tissue to wipe his tears away#like how beau did it#just pretend i drew that part the gags much funnier with that#as it turns out you can avoid the artstyle crisis by simply Not Caring. proving effective so far#art#murder drones#murder drones uzi#uzi doorman#accidentally put that as a tag on the last one without thinking about it and im keeping it#sorry tag haters jk no im not#murder drones n#serial designation n#theyre in like an abandoned mall or something i dunno figure it out

whatever. go my scarab
ive been watching scruffys pikmin 4 playthrough (go check it out!!!!)
#specifically referencing ep11 for anyone curious but i dont wanna spoil anything.. youll know it when you see it lol#ive never played pikmin and i already know for a fact id suck ass at it bc i can only do one thing at a time. i have zero dandori#actually i have zero interest in the dandori challenges bc im more focused on the creatures and areas. id be cooked#but its still fascinating to watch how the planning and strategy works in real time and goes so well with exploring#and if youre like me and has shown little interest in pikmin games his videos are a nice warm hug for looking into it#scruffy has a nice voice and explains everything like pointing out which enemies are from prev pikmin games and how they work#and pays special attention to the adaptive music cues which pikmin is known for and its really cool to see it dissected#his other videos also pick apart sound design in other video games i highly recommend his fnaf ones. theyre excellent#scruffy youtube#myart#my art#doodles#pikmin#pikmin 4#flying pikmin

and dean winchester thought he was unlovable and didnt deserve happiness he hated himself and thought eveyone would eventually leave him and then a literal fucking angel fell in love with him. like loved him more than anything else in the world.
#and yes people have pointed out that cas has always been fascinated with the world and humans and all of gods creation#but he started Caring about the world and everyone BECAUSE OF DEAN#dont u love it when two people only fall in love with each other in One universe they get no other chances#these r the only version of themselves that said No im gonna do my own thing and they didnt play by the rules they Rebelled#THEY REBELLED FOR EACH OTHERRRRRR ONLY ONCE JUST ONCE#cas literally put everything hed ever believed in on the line for dean#he questioned everything for the first time. he began to doubt#a warrior angel and a son raised as a weapon going against everything theyve ever known for each other#they r so similar theyre both weapons for the man in charge theyve always only followed orders until they mer each other#im aware all of this has been said a billion times by literally everyone i just love them and cant stop thinking or talking about them ever#ok bye <3#supernatural#dean winchester#destiel#spn#castiel#deancas

imagine ianthe's suffering rn. its so funny to me. girl all u wanted was power and i respect that but turns out that the side effect of power isnt the moral implications or whatever, its dealing with god's personal drama.
#ianthe/john dynamic is so fascinating and amusing to me.#theyre equally awful in such different ways#post-htn especially.#ianthe's so much for the grind for the power of it all yknow. theres only one person she cares about really.#and she has to deal with the most powerful guy ever being just a very sad very lonely wet kitty of a person.#i imagine at some point the (toxic codependant) instincts kick in and she starts like. genuinely caring for him#in the way she cares for people. which is by endlessly tormenting them#and he starts caring for her the way he cares for people which i can only assume is by constantly asking her if she hates him#theyre both the worst. they can be the worst together.#the locked tomb#tlt#ianthe tridentarius#ianthe the first#saint of awe#htn#htn spoilers#harrow the ninth#john gaius

"Such a sweet, tormented soul... Please tell your princess all your woes one more time..."
#touhou#touhou project#junko touhou#junko#yuyuko#yuyuko saigyouji#junyuyu#ramble time.#ive talked about these two before but i think the idea is super cute that#since junko is a spirit she appeared in hakugyokurou before being sent to hell#yuyuko became fascinated with her as another spirit that kept her human appearance#yuyuko also became fascinated with the aura of death surrounding junko#being someone who struggled with always being surrounded by death seeing junko be totally unphased by it#it made her feel comfortable. given too junko was quite open to discussion and just a casual chat.#but also yknow yuyuko considers herself the ghost princess#princess of spirits n shit. so she thinks she can be all charming and cute and flirty#junko doesnt retaliate not because she enjoys it. shes ambivalent.#shes just too bent on revenge#theyre still a bit yuri yknow?

asuka and kaworu should've hung out sometime. it doesn't really fit with the themes of the show or the canon narrative at all but in my head kaworu showed up at the apartment one day expecting to meet shinji, only to be told in no uncertain terms by a thoroughly fed up and spiritually crushed asuka that shinji had been called over to do some tests at NERV last minute and she doesn't know when he'll be back, nor does she care. kaworu asks if he can come inside anyway; he doesn't mind waiting, however long it takes. asuka reiterates that she doesn't care, and leaves him standing there to do as he pleases as she turns back to where she was playing a video game on the tv in the living room. kaworu observes silently for a while before asuka tells him to sit down and come play with her because she's getting creeped out by him just standing there. she practically throws the controller at him when he sits beside her. after a few silent, tense rounds of multiplayer, she snaps at him that he doesn't have to let her win. he asks her with a small, strange smile on his face why she thinks that he would try to lose on purpose. asuka realizes that he's being serious, and expresses genuine derision at his lack of skills, berating him and belittling him with a spark of her old passion. she then insists on teaching him how to play properly, backseat gaming him excessively and at times snatching the controller out of his hands in a fit of frustration at his inability to follow what, to her, are simple instructions. by the end of the day he's passable enough to get soundly thrashed by her without offending her by losing, and, for a moment, it's almost normal. they're just two kids hanging out, playing games at the end of the world.
#🐉#nge#i have so many thoughts about kaworu asuka and how they would have been so fascinating#to play off of each other given the chance#especially since theyre kind of spiritual rivals despite never getting to meet#forced to oppose each other by far more powerful than themselves and with no agency of their own

in loving memory
or: what did @pkmn-monochrome mean by this
#pokepasta#pokemon monochrome#this string of updates has had me so fucked up. whats going ONNNNN!!!!!!!#i really wanted to draw this panel its such a striking image. (wearing tshirt that says 'i noticed the secret')#i want to put cody under a microscope. like whats wrong with them. like god they deserve better they deserve SO much better#but also damn dude you have ISSUES huh. like 'ive already said too much' um. Um?????????????????#cody u need to stop keeping secrets. like id like to think i understand why given theyve said it outright#(its not our business. its for the sake of survival. and the players perception of them would almost certainly change once these truths-#come forward.)#i know the creator said that it WILL come forward eventually one way or another and i await that with fear and excitement#cause for something to be so deeply and desperately hidden for fear of DEATH... that must be a pretty nasty skeleton in the closet cody.#and tbh 'ive already said too much' makes me wonder how much has gone unspoken abt red and leaf too. like god codys so good at being just.#OBTUSE with the players. an expert in toeing around the truth and saying only Just enough but never Everything.#theyre such a fascinating character to read i fucking love monochrome the writing is awesome

can you imagine being Essek and watching this tiefling on a total power trip turn into a 10 feet tall--incredibly ripped??--god and kill the boy you're catching feelings for?? And brand you with some kind of evil cursed hivemind magic you're worried might corrupt you forever?? This thing that your friends swear was once family, but all you see is something monstrous and otherworldly and tearing himself apart at the seams, screaming when all their loved ones call out to him??
Just. the way it must have felt to see Lucien go from that to. Just the most sweet and affectionate little tiefling. Gentle and curious and so full of joy and wonder. He's got the brightest smile and warm eyes and this mischievous playfulness. He runs off at first--startled, scared. But then once he's calmed, the first real word he says other than Empty is Love. And right after that he calls out for his Magician, for this man who did everything he could to save him, held him close and kissed him so tenderly on the forehead--
And Caleb throws his arms around Essek and Veth and just watches the Nein all descend on Tealeaf and embrace him amidst laughter and tears and Molly's starting to smile again and Caleb's so so happy just to see him finally alive and.
In that moment, Essek understands why they came all this way--
#it is so so fascinating to me that deuces and ess knew lucien fIRST and i am so intrigued by how that would color their perception of#tealeaf when he's reborn#but also#there's something beautiful to me about seeing someone who you can't help seeing as a villain and a 'monster' just...finally break free#from these chains and become so warm and full of joy and love#seeing lucien melt as this gente affectionate tiefling who brings beau and yasha flowers and who gave everyone tiefling virtue names#also the implications of tealeaf calling the two members of the nein he doesnt recognize 'Empty'--deciding that theyre new#blank cards in the deck just waiting to be filled--#anyway sorry this was in my drafts and im just going through them now so heres this--
