want to be cremated by abu-se-ken ft. hatsune miku

“you seem like a good liar, and you’re good at turning me on”

[mattithecatti]

decided to do an interpretation of the song, “want to be cremated” by abu-se-ken for fun.

cw for suicide, abuse, genital mention

The monster vomits time and time again

Don’t you ever dare let that filthy child touch me.

Yes, at least, that much I understand

Just looking at this house brings a stinging to my eyes.

At night I want to become the beast myself

And I know for fact that it’s a beast that I can kill but

I can’t become the destructive beast myself

So I’ll walk in the night just as I am.

Understand the parallels

The wolf’s having dinner and I’m going for the night.

My instinct drags my soul to Hell

That’s the price I paid to survive.

Frannie, how ugly you are!

Try to climb higher, that’s okay.

Soon I’ll also be gone

From this painful place.

What’s this I’ve been praying to?

I’m a horrid beast

And I should’ve told you.

Deaf to my howls and growls and roars

If you choose not to hear then I can’t help you.

Look at you, lying naturally to get your way!

You must be so proud of yourself, making me feel this way!

And before I could blink I fell asleep in the same place.

Would you look at that, it seems that Frannie has had my child.

Frannie kept vomiting time and time again

God I beg, please have mercy on her child

This is truly the only thing I wish

But tell me what the hell was Zoe doing there?

The fluids were leaking out of her wounds

The amniotic fluid containing a child

Finally I can be a horrid monster

I can finally become destructive and wild.

It’s impossible for me, why can’t you see?

But you kept begging me to “Stay with me please”

I stopped on my walk just so I could see

Truly so stupid

Just kill me.

To set me free I’ll die quietly

Just let me die even if it saddens me

I know you’d love a normal family

I want the sight of me to be all you’ll see.

Ovaries

Testes

Liver

Lungs as well

Spirit

Instinct

Faith too

I feel sick.

Distorted

Degrading

And fragile

And grating

It’s vicious

True nature

It’s all so clear to me.

The parallels are a tragedy

Back here with the wolf to eat our meal

Instinct, broken things that we believe

The value of this life was never even real.

Frannie, how ugly you are

Is it alright if I try to fly away?

Soon I’ll also be gone

But I’m trapped in this painful place

What’s this I’ve been praying to?

It’s a horrid beast and now I know the truth.

Deaf to my howls and growls and roars

Is it true that you can’t hear them at all?

For the rest of my life I’ll be a dangerous beast

That’s what you said, you gave me this dream.

Is this really love, or a tomb for me?

My childhood was suffering made for me.

This Earth really isn’t heaven for me

As flowers bloom on the grave of poor Frannie

As I laugh and I laugh for no reason at all

Since I was born I’ve always believed.

I loved you, I killed you, that much is plain to see

That’s it

That’s why you tied that rope, it’s all because of me.

No matter how I howled or growled or roared

You said no matter what, you’d always love me.

My opinion on the Latino Jason Todd headcanon

While I do understand ppl's criticism of the latino Jason todd headcanon and how its kind of racist to make the kid with parents with drug problems as the latino one, to me its more of a reclamation BECAUSE of DC's racism.

Read any 80s/90s batman issue that covers gang violence and drugs, most if not ALL of the criminals are poc; black people and latinos visibly make up the majority in the poorer neighbourhoods in Gotham. Aside from the caricaturist way they r drawn/speak, its not THAT weird cause its a reflection of irl big cities where immigrants and marginalised ppl are often forced to live in such situations, (like most of my dominican family lives in the bronx... it aint racist to say dominicans tend to flock there), BUT...the weird part is when the second a sympathetic character comes from that area, he's white and has a name thats "too fancy for the streets".

Obviously, Jason was created to look like the old robin, so I can't say that the whole "diamond in the rough" situation was purposely a tad bit racist, but its still a lil weird (especially with bruce's comment).

If Jason were a part of the overwhelming demographic in his area, the good-kid-in-a-bad-area trope has less connotations. DC is currently trying to fix this trope is by making crime alley whiter, which isn't bad but they could've just yk... humanised the non-white residents.

I also feel like the messed up way Jason was treated post-death is what makes him so relatable to latino readers. His tragic story of dying while trying to save his only living relative is turned into a lesson for newer vigilantes. Jason's particular disdain for abusers on a few occasions was twisted (by both writers and characters) into him always being dumb, reckless, cocky, angry and disobedient, always violent, never having been able to get over his upbringing. None of those things were true (he was a normal level of reckless and cocky like every other robin, not more), but its an easier narrative to digest compared to how it was in reality; a kid who worked so hard and loved even harder, died to save a woman who couldn't care less about his existence. He was an emotional AND smart kid who wanted so bad to help others get better but was remembered as too emotional (in a bad way).

THIS is the reality for many latino diasporas in day to day life; Theres no question that Latino culture is passionate and emotive, but people from other cultures assume that it is followed by instead of logical. both can coexist. emotion does not mean u have no logic. Emotions can be irrational but they aren't inherently that way, and I wouldn't say that the moments where Jason lashed out as a teenager were irrational (in og runs, not rewrites post red hood), they were mostly done to protect someone (going crazy on abusers, disobeying batman to save sheila, that time he got into a fight at school to defend his friend).

A lot of euro-centric culture is OBSESSED with the idea that rationality is separate from feelings and emotions, but not crying at a funeral doesn't mean you're better than those who do. Emotions are the basis of human ethics and morals, they define the way we interact as a collective and ignoring them does not mean they are not there. Theres no winner to a contest of who can feel the less. And the way Jason's emotions are treated (pre-rh, hes definitely unhinged afterwards lol) is so in line with how white culture tends to punish those who aren't ashamed to feel.

I TOTES UNDERSTAND that some ppl who headcanon Jason as latino are doing it for the complete opposite of reasons, like "oh here some angry emotional guy with druggie parents, haha must be latino". Its weird. I dont like it. And its only brought up so he can swear in spanish in some rlly bad text post where his emotions are getting out. But to me there's so much potential for metanarrative and commentary on how latinos are treated in media that can be exemplified through the way his character is treated. Being latino would add SO MUCH DEPTH to his character and his dynamic with the others.

This was going to be a panel of a little comic but I got too invested in drawing minute background details so, here.

Theory: some High-Ends use the corpses of past OFA users

There aren't tons of High-Ends. They can't be mass-produced so easily, and there's only one that's blatantly female, literally named Woman and with a tall, defined figure

Maybe Woman's original identity is already confirmed, but... she's similar to Nana in build, isn't she?

It's hinted that All For One actually kept Nana's corpse. How, 20+ years later, could he give Tenko his grandmother's pristine hand? Is he just keeping their hands? Or their actual corpses?

Also, when looking at corpses to give multiple Quirks to, One For All users are the best for this. Having inherited One For All, their bodies had maintained multiple Quirks when they were alive, even if they couldn't use more than their natural Quirk and One For All's physical ability. And to their bodies, One For All doesn't count as just one Quirk; the natural one, and Yoichi, are already too much for a human. But Shinomori shows that it counts each previous user's Quirk, on top of Yoichi's and one's own natural one.

Their bodies adjusted to holding multiple Quirks, and when they were alive, they didn't become deformed or lose brain function. They were perfectly fine, and only had shortened lives—but that doesn't matter as corpses.

Nomus go brain dead when they have multiple Quirks. But the past users didn't, being completely fine, making them perfect for Nomu development.

High-Ends can think. They're all physically powerful, and One For All users make the best basis, even from leftover embers and physique. So why not use that great base to make the best outcome Nomus (High-Ends)?

In a Week by Hozier ft. Karen Cowley

“The raven is death, obviously. When I die, I want a good tombstone—something right spooky. LT’s got something against the underground, though you’d think that would be just his kind of place. That’s alright. He needs to, he can cremate me. It’s not exactly Catholic, and Mam would turn in her grave, but God is a unicorn and no one is pure anymore, so. What’s all that got to do with me?”

Johnny “Soap” McTavish has a journal. Had. It is his no longer.

Simon “Ghost” Riley had dreams—awful ones, the kind that sank claws into his lungs, dragged him into sleep, and then sent him careening out of it. He still has dreams, but they’re different, now. Better. Johnny’s pages have folded themselves under his eyes and gotten into his head, brighter and more infectious than anything else has ever been. It’s more than the past, that rotting carcass behind him, and more than now. Now is nothing. Now is ash. It’s like, it’s like—blinding, is what it is. He’s a blind man.

It is biblical now. Ghost has read it backward and forward and sideways and inside out. When he runs out of things to read, he reads them again, and when that is not enough, he reads between the lines.

I will say that the mourn watch background makes so much sense of rook's occasional social awkwardness. this poor fucker had really barely ever been outside before when they were kicked out from home for shenanigans and varric adopted them like a puppy slash poor little meow meow because they reminded him so much of hawke when they were young ssssh that's my headcanon. what's more they were raised by a bunch of fifth house style freaks (affectionate) who also had never been outside before. as baby jesus was laid in a manger baby rook was laid in a coffin. as baby moses was found in the bullrushes, baby rook was found among the shin bones. they may have glimpsed normalcy before once on a sunny day, but only about three degrees removed and around a corner.

considering their circumstances and previous life experiences I think they're doing great at social interactions actually don't worry sweetie you're doing amazing, realizing most people get a bit nervous if you talk too much about skulls and bone saws around them is a great first step! a joke not landing with your audience here and there is detail work we can fine tune at another time let's get some of these fundamentals in place first <- me and varric encouraging them as they're stepping into this brand new world

if law and luffy get married, would that make the heart pirates and the strawhat pirates.... crewmates in law???

[deva-arts]

Don't you find the concept of graves weird?

Like "hey my relative's corpse is buried in a box below this here stone"

When I die I want them to turn my corpse into a Halloween decoration.

I find the concept of graveyards weirder. "Hey I paid for land to stick my dead uncle in. No he is not alone."

könig catching a bug for you then showing it to you in his hand, “see he’s tiny. he can’t hurt you”. cue you screaming to get it away

i'd SCREAM. i'm so terrified of all bugs, i've been jumpscared by a fly since i thought it was a spider... but, if he ever showed me a centipede, i'd sob SO HARD 😭 i'd scream so loud, they're so scary and terrified, jesus

“schatzen, its alright.. they have lots of legs, yes.. but, he won't hurt you..- wait, what are y-”

meanwhile i'm curled up in a ball, crying and rocking myself back and forth and squirming away whenever he comes closer.

and i'd make him wash his hands 100 times 'til they're raw, atleast then i know they're clean.. 😞

[wxstfulthoughts]

lucy gray, against all odds, won the 10th hunger games and is sent back to district twelve. however, unlike the previous years, the fallen tributes aren't shipped back to their home districts, their families.

instead, much like the single remaining copy of the 10th games' footage, dr gaul keeps them to herself. deep in her lab, with only few assistants knowing (or caring) where these bodies came from.

$300 cremation and I don’t even get a name plate for his urn

I learned this week that Costco has an entire section titled Funeral on their app.
