He was beautiful and strong and fast, and he carried me like I was made of feathers. The Black angel took me to a fine house with gold ceilings, like ones in the picture houses. And that's when i guessed I was in Heaven.

yeah to me it feels like the popular idea that John was homophobic/beat his kid(s)/taught them that having emotion makes you weak is just ppl choosing to interpret 'abusive father' in the shallowest most black-and-white movie villain way possible. when the ways he fucks them up in canon are so much more interesting and complicated.
#if anything it seems like his problem is being excessively emotional and fragile to the point where they had to walk on eggshells around him#he was like step 1 parentify 1st kid until he believes desire is inherently selfish and that it's his job 2 save the entire world.#step 2 make other kid a Symbol of Lost Innocence in a way that subtly Others and Infantilizes him.#step 3 isolate them so they only have each other step 4 tell one to 'save or kill' the other step 5 DIE.#supernatural#john winchester

Thank GOD for those new promo pics.... I've always said this was the way I picture Aziraphale in modern day if he'd been the demon instead, and now I have the perfect angel!Crowley to match!
#no offense to anyone with other headcanons#but i always find reverse omens to be way too ooc for me#not bc aziraphale is a demon and crowley is an angel that makes total sense#but making crowley an innocent lil bean and aziraphale a scruffy badass just kinda....#idk i feel like you don't have to change their inherent them-ness just bc they're reversed#esp bc the point is that they're so similar in so many ways and what they are doesn't define who they are#ANYWAY all that to say aziraphale would still be stuffy and old-fashioned and prissy and soft#and crowley would still try to be the coolest mfer alive and both succeed and fail bc he's actually a huge lovesick dork#and these pics captures that aesthetic in my head SO perfectly#(also bonus headcanon that instead of getting snake eyes aziraphale's hair darkens along with his wings to symbolize his fall from grace)#good omens#reverse omens#Aziraphale#crowley#ineffable husbands#aziracrow#gomens#angel crowley#demon aziraphale#passengers 2016#rivals 2024#david tennant#michael sheen

One of those Hua Cheng reverts to Wuming scenarios where Wuming comes to understand the that 1) He and Xie Lian are sexually and romantically entangled 2) Xie Lian is married to a ghost king named Hua Cheng. The conclusion he derives from this is that he is Xie Lian's lover?? servant he fucks sometimes?? some sort of concubine??? He is trying to figure out how legitimate their affair is.
#qtzl txt#heaven official's blessing#tgcf#what does this hua cheng think about their relationship??#at some point he develops the theory that hc married xie lian as a status symbol to say fuck you to heaven#and thus doesn't really care if xl has an affair#which works for him except his highness is not some ornament to keep#but then he also understands that xie lian had hard times so it's his fault for failing to providethat xl had to accept such an arrangement

Uploading all my Tomgreg art at once from the past few week before season 4 hits, who knows in what kind of mental state i'm gonna be once it does :')
#tomgreg#succession#dont even talk to me i started watching this show when i had nothing to do at work and now i watch it with averiel my good friend averiel#and we are going to watch s4 together and i feel physically ill from bein so excited#so ya thats what ive been up to... anyway. i love these idiots they desever nothing but the worst (affectionate)#im also a tomshiv lover btw. im the one who yells 'THIS IS HOW TOMSHIV CAN STILL WIN' while they are actively losing on screen#thats the kind of person i am#dont look at me (lying on the floor)#okay i was not going to say stuff in the tags and let the art speak for itself but i NEED to point out details in the wine Painting..#i put a lot of work into that one. thinly veiled metaphors and symbolism yknow..#greg is gripping the stem of the wine glass with his full fist. tom and greg are dressed in the same outfit (sock garters included)#greg look appalled but he is not doing anything about the spill. tom is fondly pouring greg more and more wine. he is doing him a favor#i colored the red wine the same way i would color blood :) oh and tom is not really touching greg#only holding the chair in place. greg is making himself look smaller than he is like usual#oh and @ the person who said that it's the inverse of the tom and nate scene i love the way you think. i did not think of that before#but god. yeah. i actually thought about the scene change from when roman uhh.. christens his office in s1. the one with the coffee machine#i always go insane at that cut. this is not exactly the same since it's more.. about emotions but yknow.. it can be.. the same...

#they make me SICK#i hate them so much#if arthur had found out about his magic earlier and took it poorly…he’d be the only person able to kill him#merlin handing over the sword as a symbol of his utter trust in arthur#god imagine arthur finding out (au everyone lives) and being torn between wanting to cast the sword away but also wanting to keep it on him#he hates the weight of merlins life that now seems attached to the blade#he doesnt want it#but he cant cast it away bc what if someone gets their hands on it?? then merlins life is in their hands#he is BAFFLED that merlin would give HIM - uther pendragons son - the only thing that could kill him#he asks after days of fitful sleep and consideration and merlin is just like#‘its /you/ arthur.’ he says like its painfully obvious#NCJGSKSNSDIBSKSB TEYH MKAE ME VIOELTNT#bbc merlin#merlin emrys#arthur pendragon#excalibur#immortal merlin#merthur#im just thinking of percabeth when percy tells annabeth where his mortal point is and she is the ONLY person who knows#and she has to carry that tidbit of information around like its not the heaviest burden shes ever carried - more so than the sky#that one quote 'love is giving someone the power to destroy you but trusting them not to'#idk you get it#arthur and annabeth being the only people who can destroy the one they love#merlin and percy having unwavering trust and faith in their other half that they place their life in their hands#literally#sorry im done

*clasps your shoulders gently and looks you straight in the eye*
Keferon. Please read Ninth by Kyn on AO3. I think you would love it very much. It has a large chapter count, but don't be intimidated, it's very easy to get into. It is currently unfinished, but is being updated regularly.
You are the seventh person that recommended this fic to me so ahahahaha yeah
I’m doing great Help I hate some parts of it but I love the other parts I’m spinning in the blender
…..I made the moodboard….
#chapter 37#of 120 or something#I must be like 90k words in haha#large word count is not an intimidation. It’s an invitation haha#I love the fics that I can’t read in just one hour:)#I gotta say I don’t enjoy the concept of making robots into organic life#it’s just my preference#seeing them as humans or animals or whatever feels so fucking wrong#the concept itself drives me off#like. Strongly#But at the same time. This fic isn’t about them being ‘haha cute organics’#it’s ‘oh god. I was turned into something I’m not’#instead of teeheee they’re fluffy#it’s please free me from this fucking nightmare. please let me be myself again.#idk how to explain. I resonate I guess#it often feels very disturbing but the characters are also disturbed#So now I’m kind of stuck reading this fic because I just can’t stop lol#just politely skipping the parts that make me too uncomfortable#also#the body horror is….damn. Impressive. I didn’t expect to read about grotesque fleshy creature turning itself inside out#it’s not even aesthetic or symbolic#it literally looks like a fucking nightmare. Which is impressive also.#the flesh is g r o s s#the beginning got me struggling and skipping#but the intermission is currently ruining my sleep schedule#oh fuck….I usually send my posts to the authors of the fics I read…..but I feel like I might offend the author of Ninth if do this……..#there’s a tiny chance they’re following me….if it’s true then I wanna tell I’m sorry pls don’t take this seriously#your fic got me waay out of my comfort zone#huge points for writing Ratchet. Drift in this fic is…the grossest fucking thing I could probably imagine but Ratchet doesn’t even hesitate#he helps him and he cares for him. Which is…..imma be real my first instinct would be to set Drift on fire to end his misery

#devil may cry#beanie art#vergil devil may cry#vergil dmc#nelo angelo#urizen dmc#v devil may cry#v dmc#dmc fanart#devil may cry fanart#i mean do i have to tag the nightmares too#anyways let me elaborate on the piece here in the tags#its based on Triple Self Portrait by Norman Rockwell#planned to do a thing where each reflection is holding in its left hand whatever vergil's 'heart' is at each point in his life#while the right hand would hold his 'weapon'#like the symbolism at the end of VoV where the young vergil is holding the book and the yamato#for nelo angelo it's the amulet as his heart and mundus's sword as his weapon#for urizen he has nothing in his hand as his heart and the qliphoth fruit as his weapon#v was meant to have his book in his hand as his heart and the familiars as his weapon#and ofc young vergil has the amulet and the yamato (hes looking at nelo angelo in the leftmost mirror whats he thinking HMMM)#but regardless the way the piece worked out you cant see everybodys hands!!!#it be like that sometimes i hope someone reads these tags and sees the intent lol

hmm. even better than "obi-wan was cody's whole life before o66" is "cody had a tentatively blooming life outside the gar, had non-clone and even non-jedi friends, had hope and plans for the future, and the combination of the trauma of being mind-controlled to do endless battle by a person who saw him and his command as fleshdroids and also being forced to attempt to murder the man he loved and respected and swore to protect caused him to mentally and emotionally regress by fucking years"
#i dont buy that cody was obsessed with obi-wan pre-o66 or that obi-wan was the only point of joy or hope in his life#i DO buy that cody became obsessed with the idea of obi-wan post-o66 and that he had little joy or hope in life after his 'death'#like i think trying and almost succeeding in killing obi-wan Changed cody. but i dont think the Change was all grief that his love was dead#in a way obi-wan's death was a symbol that cody's life - the life he had planned and fought for - had been torn away from him#does that make sense? idk#codywan#commander cody#may the force be with you

SHERLOCK | Martin Freeman as John Watson
#inspiration for creating gifs was the wonderful @meandhisjohn#he emerged from the mist like a ghost with sadness etched on his face like the imprint of a recent storm#In his eyes a shadow of despair lingered but at the same time an unrelenting thirst for life beat in his heart#the world around him seemed empty a lifeless canvas devoid of color and sound#his brown jacket rough and worn a symbol of the storm raging within his soul gave him a harsh yet captivating appearance#and at that momen like a beacon of light in utter darkness he met him#their gazes met and the world around them burst into vibrant hues#as if a painter inspired by a divine muse had poured his palette onto the canvas#john lost in the abyss of despair suddenly found purpose meaning in his existence#he was like a ship tossed about in a tempest finding sanctuary and calm in a harbor#their encounter became a turning point illuminating his life with a gentle light comparable to the first rays of dawn#breaking through the darkness of night#love immense and unfathomable enveloped their hearts forging them into one#It was like a magical elixir awakening forgotten feelings and dreams#martin freeman#mf/serial#bbc sherlock#john watson#sherlock#sherlock bbc#benedict cumberbatch#pilot

Wardrobe Woes
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#Yes: there are people who read these comics who don't know much about mdzs. Several are my beloved and supportive friends B'*)#This comic in particular is one that I've been thinking about for a very long time and I'm so happy to finally be here!#I was trying to think about how to explain the social rules of the forehead ribbon and the reason lwj was so upset#and the metaphor of 'it's kind of like wwx accidently undoing lwj's bikini in front of a crowd.' came to mind.#of course there's a bit more to it than that but the point here is that - accident or not - it still embarrasses lwj#wwx doesn't get the entire context behind it (at the time. Now he *does* and it all makes a bit more sense)#But he knows he made lwj upset. He knows he doesn't want to put lwj in another embarrassing situation.#Not after all this. Not after everything. Not after realizing that his desire for friendship might be the kind of desire that ruins lan zha#Love the symbolism of the archery outfits being red during this moment of 'whoops only married couples can do that' moment.#What if we accidental proposed............accidental marriage....accidental kiss the bridegroom....accidental fall in love.#Guess we did inadvertently get the puffy sleeves and bikini outfits in the end.#wwx in an old timey bathing suit is so important to me. I'll die on this hill.#lwj's cute little box is inspired by @lazycranberrydoodles's cute fan art <3 I love it a lot

sets myself on fire
#mk1#takeda takahashi#kenshi takahashi#kung jin#jinkeda#mk fanart#mortal kombat community#harvart#for the tattoos im not good at designing them at all so it's a very rough idea as seen . the point is to just get the idea down#while Kenshi's tattoos resemble a Komainu which is a symbol of protection . i like to think Takeda would have a black koi fish theme#black koi symbolise overcoming darker challenges :3#i also like to think he'd only have it going down one arm while kenshi has tattoos going down both#also kinda thinking he started doing his hair up in the braid ponytail after staying at the shirai ryu#I love him so much cries

where was the seaside cave that tom visited as a child do you think?
somewhere among the seven sisters in east sussex:
why?
because the cave is the location in which he hides the only horcux which connects him to his mother.
"the seven sisters" is a term used to refer not only to these cliffs, but to the pleiades star formation.
and one of the stars of the pleiades...
is merope.
#asks answered#tom riddle#lord voldemort#bonus points if he never realises the symbolism#since it's clear he doesn't know his mam's name...
