"aphobia doesn't exist"
bitch literally not that long ago an aroace youtuber animator was insulted by almost half of its community for being it
#i did some research about it and found out that the problem was principally that she had previous experience in the romantic area#so people just didn't take her seriously and said she was lying#even though she stated multiple times that she wasn't comfortable in those situations#now things are more calmed but damn#mind your own bussiness#i believe she knows more about herself than you#sorry if i offended you with this comment but i hate how aro/ace/aroace people are always left behind#insulted and rejected because they “dont know what they are talking about”#or because they “just have to wait for the right person”#or because they are “psychopaths and they are missing something”#i love that animator and she helped me realise a lot about myself#and now that i know the context i think i will start making a list and killing aphobes one by one#aromantic#arospec#asexual#aroace#acespec

On your most recent From the Couch post... is that a dragon tattoo I see poking out of Zuko's collar? ...................may we see more of it?
You may see all of it.
#dema answers#atla#avatar the last airbender#zuko#atla fanart#atla art#prince zuko#tales from the couch#atla modern au#atla au#zuko art#zuko fanart#atla zuko#Tattooed Zuko#For context!#He got those tattoos during what would be S2 in this AU#This was right before being accepted back home. So he got them during a—let's say—crossroads of destiny *wink wink*#Those are his shame tattoos. He's terribly embarrassed by them so the Gaang tease him about them. (He's secretly very proud of them tho)#It's all about the duality inherent to fire (and himself!) as well as protection.#The red dragon has his back at all times. It protects Zuko from his past—from everything that he has left behind and is walking away from.#The Blue dragon guards him front unknown threats. It curls over his left arm (his most vulnerable side) and rests its head over Zuko's heart#It's all very symbolic#Zuko loves his tattoos but is also embarrassed and ashamed of how he got them. He was in a very bad place at the time.#If he got the chance to get his tattoos done *now*—he probably wouldn't do it.#He wouldn't change a thing tho. They're part of who he is. A reminder of who he was.#Also they're kinda hot#So that helps#Also...I forgot to draw the blue dragon's body on the back of his shoulder so... Oops?#Let us all ignore that and focus on the sun/starbust tattoo on his chest instead#the gaang

Me when Ashton Greymoore is denied honorable and meaningful self-sacrifice, and now must face the reality that they MUST keep living after it’s All Over
#critical role#critical role spoilers#cr spoilers#ashton greymoore#bells hells#cr ashton#like#Tal and Ash were both so clearly ready#for Ashton to sacrifice themselves. and comparing that to Ashton’s backstory#to Ashton being left behind as a sacrifice. and becoming bitter(er) and lonely and denouncing ever growing close to someone again#to meeting letter. and learning from letters. and so much about telling letters not to self sacrifice.#but then letters does. and Ashton is ready to go to. he’s prepared to go out to save everyone#and he was so prepared for that to be where his story ends#but he doesn’t. and not through failure but through success#and now (though more trials still await) they must face the reality they must keep living after it all#and face the reality that they will not survive alone.#that they have come out the other side. alive but changed. but not in some miraculous way.#they are not healed. they did not go out protecting those they loved. and they are forced to contend#with the fact they will continue to walk this earth. as it is changed. but not miraculously fixed. but not sacrificed#and like. Ashton having to contend with the change. that the Thing is over. but they are not alone#they are alive. and have friends and a love. and a world familiar and new to love and learn#that they have a connection to but not an ancient force they are upholden to#that they and the earth will learn together#I’ll be honest only the first half of these tags was planned when I started typing about ash being forced to contend with having to live#having to live despite it all. that there’s no big change. no miracle. good or bad. but you must keep going. and how beautiful that is#for Ashton’s story and just in general for people who would resonate with him#but then like I remembered they’re gonna scare off the gods and so exandria is totally gonna change but like#consider my initial point and how beautiful it is#and how I managed to shoehorn it in to still make sense#babblestar

Fury made Alanna gasp for breath. How could anyone get well in a menagerie? How could Jonathan breathe? This went against all the commonsense rules Maude had taught her for healing: clean air, quiet, absolute cleanliness, calm and reassuring voices. Didn't these people know anything?
#song of the lioness#tamora pierce#alanna the lioness#alanna the first adventure#tortall#watercolour#so elephant in the room is i remembered that I forgot to buy a card reader for the new computer and so i had to do a phone photo to finish#and i think youll agree that theres some very egregious artifacting going on#it is what it is i wanted to finish and didn't want to buy a card reader yet#anyway my thinking here is this would all be that much more tragic if everyone was in desecrating Jons childhood bedroom/tween nursery that#that maybe he hadn't quite left behind yet for a more appropriate crown-princling set of rooms because this is the turning point right#Jons dying he's not going to be allowed to grow up- Alanna is frustrated by the limitations of her own age and size and postilion#so alanna reaches outside those limits- with myles/with the gods and in doing so neither children are ever the same#that's my ted talk thanks for listening ive had a couple of months to think about it because I myself had several serious flu's that i cant#seem to shake while ive been picking away at doing this one i could have referenced myself for jons sweaty knocking on deaths door pose

Do you think Adrien sees himself in this new image he has of his father—in the way Chat Noir always sacrifices himself for Ladybug and the greater good, and now he believes his father has done the same? Giving his life so that Ladybug can live, so that Monarch would be destroyed?
#miraculous ladybug#ml london spoilers#ml london special#ml spoilers#adrien agreste#im having..Thoughts#would he feel justified in his father’s sacrifice? in his own?#or does he now see just how sacrifice can affect those left behind?

*in the Rebellion inside Echo’s minivan ship*
Rebel, showing Echo some photos: Yeah these are my kids. A boy and a girl. I do this all for them. How many do you have?
Echo: I have five.
Rebel: Aw you must have your hands full! How old are they?
Echo: Four are 312 months and the youngest is 156 months.
Rebel: …
Echo: …
Rebel, trying to do the math: How old did you say you were again?
#this was inspired by those boy mom satire videos where it’s like ‘my baby boy is only 400 months old 😭’#and the fact that I strongly headcanon that the remora is basically like a stereotypical soccer mom minivan on the inside#youve got snacks you have capri suns there are puke bags for if anyone feels sick#there’s something that’s been left behind by one or more kid#everyone in the rebellion wants to go on missions with Echo because they want those capri suns goddammit#they were all surprised to learn that he wasn’t ‘technically’ a parent#because what do you MEAN the ‘kid’ calling echo because his stomach hurt is actually a former sniper in his twenties#or that the main consumer of the capri suns is an absolute TANK of a man#star wars tbb#star wars the bad batch#the bad batch#incorrect bad batch quotes#arc trooper echo#tbb echo#mama echo#mama echo monday#mama echo strikes again#incorrect tbb quotes

Bonus 9: So that's where the turtle came from!
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#bonus comic#tulu xuanwu#lan sizhui#Thank you Stackedbirds for the inspiration behind this comic!#The original plan was that they would kill the turtle - only for it to be revealed there was little baby turtles she was protecting#and those turtles left the cave to then be chilling in a river by yi-city 20 years later.#This version has less turtle death and is way more straightforward.#But yes; A-Qing's turtle was always supposed to be linked to the tulu xuanwu. I enjoy call-backs and set-ups immensely.#What other creatures does LSZ have in his sleeve pockets? What other endangered beasts have been accidently translocated?#Will the turtle ever make an appearance again? So many questions. Which I will now answer:#1) At least one rabbit and a few songbirds have made a permanent home in there.#2) I like to think all the cultivators leaving baoshan sanren's mountain are accidently translocated endangered creatures.#3) Yes. The tulu xuanwu will be pivotal presence in the climax of the story. Dare I say - the hero of the darkest hour.

Arthur being in disguise or hiding (because villain of the week is trying to kill him) and he overhears what his own people think of his father
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Two guards speaking quietly about the new locked gates policy
“But The King says — “
“The child-slayer? I won’t listen to a word that man says — let the family pass”
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Two peasant women gathering herbs
“The mad tyrant has ordered yet another attack on the druid community. A shame I say, most of my recipes come from them, and if he kills them all, how will the potion makers survive?!”
“He burned my aunt you know — she had no magic! She never studied, she knew no spells or anything, but she was a midwife. A woman with knowledge of herbs and how to best practice medicine — that was treason enough”
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
A group of servants walking past him
“I was sweeping in Lord Alders chambers when he complained to Gaius about paying his secret tax again”
“A secret tax?”
“Yes! Apparently his wife, the Countess, knows magic and The King allows it! Lord Alders pays him a handsome sum a year so his wife gets to keep her head on her shoulders. His estate you know, is next to the river and we need fish to eat”
“So The King allows a noble woman to live because her estate is of convenience to the kingdom?! All-while my father, a shoemaker, lost his head for knowing how to read druidic? The Hypocrisy!”
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
A drunk father grieving in the tavern
“My boy was only five summers old! He didn’t know how to read his own name, let alone study magic! But still, he was to hang”
“But why? What was his crime?”
“He was playing in the field with the other boys, and the wheat made him sneeze and suddenly his hair changed and became blue. He didn’t even realise what happened until the others pointed it out. Apparently, there was no need for a trial. He was guilty…
A little boy had to hang because of one moment, one spark of something he must’ve been born with because he never learned, and The Rotten King tied a noose around his neck.”
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Arthur returning home safely after Gaius was able to identify the poison the attackers used
“May I ask where you found this information?”
“In one of my books, my lord. Here, I belive you read from this when Merlin drank from the poisoned chalice.”
He flips through the pages haphazardly before releasing
“But this is a book of magical poisons and plants!”
“Well yes sire…how else would I be able to recognise the symptoms?”
Arthur thinks back to the woman who was arrested last week for having a book on magical plants. She was deemed a witch and a traitor with clear intentions of killing the royal family, and was subsequently burned alive
“So the information is useful in your hands, but traitorous in anyone else’s?”
“It’s just a book Arthur. What one chooses to do after reading it, is entirely up to oneself”
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Arthur needs some time to think
Maybe Merlin could help…
#I’m not sure if this could be canon bc we’re told many like uther#but i feel like there are untold stories of those left behind the magic trials#bbc merlin#merlin#uther pendragon#Would be fun to see Arthur realise his fathers hypocrisy#Like why is gaius allowed to read books on magical beasts and poisons#like we see the books gaius reads and the monsters and poisons within them#arthur pendragon#merlinmylove#bbc merlin meta

The WALL-E au no one asked for
#i can't even watch an animated film without finding a way to shove those stupid homo pilots in it#anyways i was thinking for this au it follows the same premise/story as wall-e where the human race has left earth due to uninhabitable#conditions but instead of robots it's select groups of people chosen to stay behind to “clean up”#by clean up i mean they're actually being left for dead because the ones being left have rendered lawless by upper command#or troublesome/rebellious etc etc#but the groups they're able to live for a few generations with the resources and stuff they have. hence mav#mav is out scouting or doing whatever solo when the ship lands and out comes one (1) iceman kazansky#looking for some sort of proof of life (those among the space vessel assuming everyone/everything has perished by this point)#shenanigans ensue#they fall in love and bring the ship back to earth yadda yadda#idk it's too late to form coherent sentences#hope you enjoy my silly word vomit#top gun#top gun au#tom iceman kazansky#pete maverick mitchell#icemav#wall-e! au#top gun art#top gun fanart#frozen's art tag#tw blood#< just in case

Did she keep you trapped?
#critical role#ygifs#fearne#cr3#the way fearne Immediately needs to liberate trapped creatures with a desperation that makes my heart ache :) comedy?? nah Trauma :)#a lonely little girl growing up in a nightmare and her heart is so big she only sees the dream#and she grows up believing with all her love that her parents Love her. her nana Loves her. and they'll be together one day.#and then it's growing up realizing just how dark the shadows were around her but no her home was always lovely it has to be#and it's not their fault if something hurts. if anything it's hers right. shes the solution for them of course she was the problem after al#the nana she loves can't be the hag who took her for a prize the parents she's searching for can't have left her behind.#her home was never a cage she just Has to free every trapped creature she sees#she'll laugh lightly and often and shrug it all away because it's not heavy. it doesn't hurt her. she's fine. she's fearne.#love nana morri to death also a thousand percent sure she modified little fearne's memory A Ton to keep her :).#how times did fearne try to run away crying only to be given a grin and a postcard and those fears are just one more thing taken from her#and it's all so lovely and nothing hurts and she's totally fine#my galpaloway
