a new star
#i been thinkin about the asteroid again#i think about the asteroid a lot more than i think is normal#like just the complete randomness of it and how everything changed in literally the blink of an eye#like the dinoss rules the fucking earth and probably still would if space had just been a little bit different#how long did it take the asteroid to reach us#at what point was the impact inevitable#like these sound like scientific answers but i need you to know these are questions that my soul wants answered in poetry#yes the math is cool but can i talk about what tragedy looks like melted into the earth#how power and pain and mourning but also change and new life and a future were embedded in a layer of iridum that spread around the planet#can we talk about how looking at the layers of the earth is the most physical type of time travel there is#can i please talk about that layer of pain#can i mourn when i see it#or am i just a weird kid crying when i look at rocks#ALSO. was parasaurolophus alive when the asteroid hit? i dont think so#but it's too late#yall get to suffer with me#dinosaurs

To me there’s like a line between the Bad Kids who were always themselves extremely authentically and that fucked them up socially (Riz, Adaine, Gorgug) and the Bad Kids who spent a good portion of their lives playing a part and that fucked them up mentally (Fabian, Kristen, Fig)
#that’s why the latter three blended in so well to the popular kid landscape: they’re so used to playing a part#meanwhile riz adaine and gorgug are very unused to being popular and it’s a very big change for them#gorgug to an extent also has to deal with repressing his rage so he does get it a bit#however he doesn’t have to deal with his entire identity and personality for others like the other three#what fucks me up is that fabian and fig are still to some extent playing a part even if it’s changed over the years#a good part of Kristen’s arc is her being authentically herself and the consequences that brought#so she kinda gets that nice reprieve that I feel like the other two don’t get as much#and yeah the two of them have the bad kids and fig has ayda and they can drop the act around them#but they do still have to play a part#(and if you’ll allow me to be insane over fabian for a minute) the fact that outside of the party fabian doesn’t really have anyone he feels#comfortable being himself around is one of the tragedies of his character considering he’s still trying to be perfect for everyone else#even fig is learning to be her authentic self with people outside of her friends and gf and fabian just doesn’t get that#anyways. rant over. just will always be thinking about Them#autism (mads) speaks#fantasy high#the bad kids#fabian aramais seacaster#riz gukgak#adaine abernant#gorgug thistlespring#kristen applebees#fig faeth#d20 fantasy high#dimension 20 fantasy high

One of the more exasperating things about living a life on this planet has to be how doomed we are just to fall into the same pit one after another for infinite generations, even if you know the pit is coming up. It's a completely unavoidable event. Because you start out young and clever and there's all these well-meaning older people who will try to give you advice about the big picture things of being human
--and it's always some stupid trite bullshit. Despicable platitudes. If it was that easy, the world would be a different place, so you decide when you're old, you're going to say actual real meaningful things when you give advice and not just watery sop like this.
Then you get older and real experiences happen to you along the way, and you realise that's it. There isn't anything else to say. That's the absolute best advice we've got for saying the enormity of what you're feeling in these moments, stress-tested over a hundred thousand years of going through it. And it still sounds like sop, except you hear through that now to the truth inside.
And despite all this and how badly you want to warn them, no young people will ever be able to understand how genuinely and sincerely you mean it when you try to share this truth, and will only hear the platitudes and stupid trite bullshit. They won't really understand you, even if they want to believe you, because they can't. Not really. And you can't save them from going in the pit. They have to go in the pit. It's the only way.
You can even tell them that they will have to go in the pit before things begin to make a kind of sense, and sometimes they get a little mad at you because they already know everything and the pit sounds stupid. And it is. And they're still going to go in it. It will teach them and change them and then it will be their turn to be disbelieved by annoyed young people who they can't save from the future.
Sorry and good luck, I guess.
#tl;dr -- 'you'll understand when you're older' is one of the most annoying things to ever hear as a young person#but then you get older + you DO understand + it never stops pissing you off a little bit that they were right AND now you have to say it to#this is about grief primarily but it can be about whatever you want. i'm not your dad.#actually i guess it's also about being a teacher + giving students advice that 1. you know they won't take + 2. they will regret not taking#but you have to say it anyway. just in case *this time* is different. probably won't be though. just another everyday mundane tragedy.#not a sonnet

Family Resemblance
....
....
....

I
....
I had another 11pm brain worm.
Enjoy
-x-x-
Daniel Wayne, the younger toddler brother of Bruce Wayne and the son of Martha and Thomas Wayne had been kidnapped the night their parents were murdered.
Daniel had been snagged the moment their killer heard people headed to the alley and Bruce in his state of shock didn't realize it until it was far to late and could only scream in horror (from everything) as his baby brother is crying his name. (If you wanna make it even more heart wrenching, make it Danny's first time being able to say Bruce's name right and/or Bruce had said some mean things to Danny earlier after he accidentally broke something of Bruce's, something like 'I wish youd go away' or 'I never wanted a brother, you're such a bother!')
Bruce is being held by Alfred as some police officers are chasing down the Wayne's parents killer while some stay behind to see if they could do something.
Minutes turn to hours and as they wait, praying the police at least found Danny, Bruce is ridden with guilt. From his parents death to allowing his brother to be kidnapped.
Eventually the police return to give Alfred and Bruce the news. And it's not good.
The killer escaped and Danny was nowhere to be found.
And it would take many years before he would be found.
-x-x-
Bruce gets a call from Damian during school hours one day. When he answers he is greeted with Damian demanding him to get to the school and explain himself.
Confused Bruce asks what does he mean and Damian responds with
"The two new students in class today are the spitting images of you and I father! Either they are poorly created clones or you have more hidden blood children!"
-x-x-
Meanwhile the very students being discussed are calling up someone too
"Ellie? Dan? What's wrong? You better not have made too much chaos already, I just paid for the uniforms for that place."
"DAD! I THINK ANOTHER ONE OF THE FRUITLOOPS FAILED CLONES SOMEHOW SURVIVED!"
"What?"
#danny phantom#danny fenton#crossover#dp x dc#blue rambles#danny phantom dc#writing ideas#random idea#dpxdc#bruce and danny are siblings#danny was a toddler when he was kidnapped#somehow someway he escaped or was dumped out of Gotham#due to how young Danny was and how traumatized he was about that night he forgot everything but his first name#no one really connected the dots that Danny was the missing Wayne child#mostly due to no public photographs of Danny#he had been born very early and no one was sure he was going to make it#and going to the theater had been his first time being finally allowed out of the manor#only for it to end in tragedy#years later though#Danny moves to Gotham with his kids#a deaged and raised from infanthood Danielle 'Ellie' Fenton and Dante 'Dan' Fenton#Damian was not ready to see them#he thinks theyre poorly made clones since one looks more like his father than him and the other is a girl#or more secret children his father didnt know about#Ellie and Dan think Damian is an escaped clone of Vlads#Bruce and Danny meet at the school and Bruce nearly has a heart attack at the young man who looks so much like his parents#Danny is a bit weirded out because Bruce looks very familiar somehow

Introducing! ELESA, the new kid on the block! She's a tiny bedraggled child from Sinnoh and not all that familiar with Galarian, the spoken language in Unova. (One day she'll be amazing. Right now though, she just wants to go play in the mud. And maybe get a better set of hearing aids.)

When not bitterly lonely, she’s scheming to run back to her old home. Or chasing the local patrat. Or watching nervously from the sidelines as other children play on the swings. Oh elesa. (loosely inspired by @/noxstrages' incredible comics about elesa's origins! Ty for the food.)
Masterpost to my submas comics!
#art#pokemon#sketchbook#submas#myart#fanart#gym leader elesa#blitzle#nimbasa trio#elesa#character design#baby elesa is a nightmare to work with but im happy with this draft!#her clothes are supposed to be more sinnoh fashioned#and with time she slowly integrates more and more unovan clothing inspiration into her work#one day she's going to realize everything she works on is entirely unovan. and it's gonna hurt.#(i feel like part of her modeling and costume designing stuff in the future would be her trying to reclaim some of that history)#((but also the inherent tragedy of forgetting kantonese because she tries so hard to integrate into unova makes me feel things))#(((only projecting on elesa a bit. i promise)))

I love both of these moments and I think it's such a strong and compelling choice to show us Paul just unabashedly running to hug his mentors with nary an eyeblink from his family or any of the people around who work for House Atreides, people he'd be expected to some day lead (which particularly stands out in the first instance, which is on their formal arrival onto Arrakis!). In a matter of seconds it tells us not only what kind of person Paul is at this point and what these character dynamics are like, but by extension tells us about how his family has raised him and paints a picture of House Atreides.
#i appreciate that these movies in the midst of many Grim Things have a number of very good hugs#it's not a proper tragedy if the audience doesn't Care about what's being lost#and damn if this didn't get me to care#squire on arrakis#dune#dune part 1#paul atreides#thufir hawat#duncan idaho#squire's stuff#it's SUCH a good choice to so quickly say yes he treats the people who serve his family very genuinely with friendship#it's such a clear picture and it's a consistent throughline with his father as well - both in how his father interacts with him#and how his father interacts with his people - and that his people have this very *earned* personal loyalty to his family#it was so unexpected to me and i love it and it kills me#it adds so much to when paul will later be talking with grief about people who were once friends becoming followers#it makes it believable when he says to chani that gurney is family#and i can't get over the line in the book when they're preparing for the final battle#and gurney has a bit of interior thought#'since when did an atreides value things over people'#and they set that up so WELL in the films. *chef's kiss*#duke leto's little look to the side in the first gif like 'what's - oh it's just paul. there he goes'#no other reaction. that's just normal and how it goes. not even a little bit discouraged.#thufir's big fond smile. duncan's 'my boy!' they care about him! so much!#paul: if i run and leap at duncan he will surely catch me in his arms#duncan: yes! my boy!#(do i weigh anything to you? no it's like holding a couple of grapes)#(the 'you put on some muscle' 'i did?' 'no' exchange continues to crack me up - the fond teasing big brother of it all)

I’m editing now, and it is a little sad going back to the start of a book, because they don’t know what’s going to happen. they don’t know how their relationships will change. they’re making promises they’re never going to keep

I think it’s a very interesting glance into Cesare as a person that he was killed for being ‘bad’ at art and then, a thousand years later, he saw a chance to enter another creative space and based his whole brand on never making anything good
#do you think he dedicated to the ‘bad burgers’ out of fear of being punished for his skill again#or is it just coincidence that the haha funny burger seller bit mirrors the uh oh tragedy puppeteer backstory#this pit is of indeterminate depth but the ground is soft and I’m continuing to stab it aggressively with a shovel#just talking#bigtop burger#btb cesare

#lokius#mobius#loki#mcuedit#lokiedit#marveledit#the way i paused a different lokius angst set to make this one after seeing the insp 😭😭#like they truly are every form of love tragedy and admiration just completely unable to look away from each other??#a captivation which frees them just long enough to realize everything they've ever wanted has somehow become centered in their lives#yet just that little bit too close to the sun to keep ;;;;;;;#tbh almost giffed the reverse pov with a different scene and might still because the mirroring of their connection drives me INSANE#as always i was following you no i was following you 😔#owen wilson#tom hiddleston#marvel#owenwilsonedit#dianagifs

I'll defend Shaunahat til my dying day. Maybe Shauna deserves someone who likes her and will openly hold hands with her and will cut off a man's Achilles to impress her and smirk at the other yellowjackets before they get it on. Has anyone even thought of that?
#jeff was jeff#jackie was complicated#in a way it makes jackieshauna more tragic#bc jackie did like her#and they probably held hands all the time#um....#and we all remember her petty ass smirk during doomcoming#she'd be the proudest gf#but she wasnt shaunas gf and thats the tragedy#but melissa did get to be that for her#and it wasnt enough#bc she just wasnt jackie#but i still think shauna deserves it#at least for a little bit#thats the tragedy#yellowjackets#yellowjackets show#shauna shipman#melissa yellowjackets#melissa hat#shaunahat#shauna x melissa#melissa x shauna#yellowjackets s3

I made a silly uquiz while dog sitting"
(This is very Tumblr-core. There are many like it, but this one is mine.)
#i feel like the 'kinds of tragedy' that Tumblr comes up with are always like the same three#tried to get a little bit outside the box but idk#bc honestly doomed by the narrative is great but whenever people go on and on about that i begin to suspect that they just haven't read#that many tragedies#idk i did my best#fun nonsense#pontifications and creations#note also: these 'kinds' of tragedy are not mutually exclusive#like. wuthering heights alone has like half of em and I'm not even sure I'd call it a tragedy at all#uquiz
