#we'll get there though

[emkini]

Got on my horse today for the first time since the accident. Overall was a pretty good experience and a friend and I worked hard to make it safe, but my horse has a really high canter transition and christ if the sudden up-down lurch didn't make my heart drop out of my chest

#Something something the way victims of abuse end up feeling inhuman #something something the way even mentioning your own trauma is taboo #something something because you are so tied to your trauma that your very self becomes taboo by proxy #Wolfwood is a survivor of medical abuse and Vash experiences treatment by his brother heavily analogous to sexual assault #both experiences in real life that render their victims ‘dirty’ for even having experienced them - @eldritchneuro

You! You get it!!! Trigun is such a complex and nuanced exploration of trauma--both Trimax and Tristamp. Almost every character goes through something, whether in the course of the story or before (or both) and it affects them! It's not just fun set pieces or drama!!! And I feel like it's most thoroughly explored in Wolfwood, Vash, and Knives. It's just *clenches fist* so good

I'm going to make the best of these two years.

But man, I just want to get married.

My beloved knows this too, but he's not ready and I really get wanting to wait until he done with his military contract.

God has plans for us, and I will have an adventure in grad school. I might even get the opportunity to perform outside of the country. Maybe if I do well enough with graduate assistantship I can walk into a doctoral program (if I immediately get my doctorate, I 1000% do not care what that will bring but I am getting married and starting a family). That'd be nice, and maybe I can get a symphony job.

I hope I can do good at whichever parish I join, whether the community one or the Newman center. I am excited about joining a Bible study and meeting with people my age. I'm excited about having access to a gym. I'm excited about campus events, even if they're geared towards undergrads. I'm excited to make new friends and also living close to my boyfriend's family to help out.

Even with all that, I really wish we could get married sooner. I hate the waiting. I just want to be with him. I don't care if we don't have our lives together, I just want to be with him.

But, I am grateful for the opportunity to continue my education and all the opportunities and experiences graduate school is going to give me. I'm very excited to get better at my instrument and become a better person.

And after grad school, we can get married, we can buy a house, and settle down. I won't have to worry about moving. We can be part of a community. We can have kids and we can teach them our love of sports, music, our faith, and loving others. I can teach, whether at a school or private lessons, and play in symphony. I do very much want to spend time with little ones and be a stay-at-home mom. I want a sweet little baby of my own.

I just have to make it through the next two years.

[egophiliac]

you know, I've been thinking about it, and there is actually one single scenario in which I would be okay with not getting a big ol' "Silver Vanrouge" out of Lilia.

(just kidding, I still need some "call me Silver, Mr. Vanrouge is my father" in my life, please don't let me down on this one Twst)

REPLICA PLAYLIST

MUSIC UNDER CUT

I have been receiving requests for any songs that inspired Replica, so here, have my personal playlist. Sorry it’s not Spotify/Soundcloud but they don’t have some of these songs available so uh… guess you’re stuck with YouTube vids. For fun I'll include my personal titles for them (which might give a few hints of what to expect in the future/end).

Replica Main Theme - “Die for You” by Grabbitz Like Father Like Son Like Brother (Omega and Shelldon) - "As Above So Below" by Alistair Lindsay Mikey's Theme / The 1st Vision - "Suzume no Tojimari" by Nanoka Hara Military (Mad) Dogs / Central Park Colony - "Imperium" by Madeon Shanghai - "Icarus" by Madeon Boom Goes the Donnie-mite (Mikey/Donnie vs the Sweeper) - "The Red Zone" by Mitsuoto Suzuki The Day the Sky Bled Red - "7 Seconds Till the End" by Nobuo Uematsu Going Out Like a Boss (Raph and Leo) - "Agape" by Nicholas Britell Remembering the Right Way (Mikey and Leo) - "The Souls of Many" - by Alistair Lindsay Mystic Hands / The 2nd Vision - "Am I Dreaming" by Metro Boomin x A$AP Book 2 Trailer - "Sea Dragon" by Covet 7 Years Later - "Iron" by Woodkid Leo's Theme / Attack on the Labor Camp - "Ego Death" by Polyphia Omega's Theme - "Touch" by Daft Punk Flat Lines (Omega Alone) - "Die Toteninsel Emptiness" by 1000 Eyes Spear - "Monsters" by Tommee Profitt Final Protocol - "The Kraken" by Katie Dey Rise / Epilogue - "Close in the Distance" by Masayoshi Soken & Tom Mills

I will admit, it's a little embarrassing since you can easily see the patterns of what I've been listening to for the past year or two. I swear I listen to more than just videogame OSTs, these songs just jive well with the story and I often find lyrics distracting when brainstorming scenes. Regardless, the music I listen to is such an important part of my creative process and some of these songs really defined the scenes I now have locked in my head. So I figured it was only fair to give them the credit they're due.

I will continue to add to this playlist, and will note in comic updates when one of these songs is applicable!

[ID in ALT] I've made posts before about Talia/Dick co-parenting Damian moments (will never happen but let me dream) and this came to me in a vision. Took me ages to finish for some reason 😭 and then even longer to post

The Search for the Scions

After Y'shtola's comment on Niviennes actions at the Praetorium, Nivienne has been dancing around actually speaking to Y'shtola about it. When they are searching for Thancred however, they have a moment alone, and she finally works up the courage. Nivienne offers to keep her distance from her comrades, especially in battle when she is at her most dangerous. Obviously the blessing of light means she will still need to participate in the Scion's activities, but she is willing to work under whatever restrictions they feel are necessary to allow her to continue her work, because she feels that it is important for the safety of the realm. It slowly dawns on Y'shtola what Nivienne is saying, and what she thought Y'shtola was referencing at the Praetorium. 

Y'shtola corrects Nivienne, saying that she meant she didn't have to push herself as hard as she did there, or sacrifice so much if herself. She tells her that several of the Scions know she was responsible for the explosion there and simply wanted to let Nivienne bring it up on her own time, since it was clearly quite upsetting to her. Nivienne feels ridiculous, so Y'shtola admits that she can be much the same when pushing her own limits, and that her ambitious teleportation spell under Ul'dah was inspired by Nivienne's pushing boundaries, which probably saved both her and Thancred's lives. After a long moment Y'shtola asks Nivienne to not think so little of her companions, that they would toss her aside so easily.

Nivienne spends a lot of time thinking that night. She’s not convinced, but it’s a start at least. 

As the other Scions begin to make their way back, Nivienne is surprised to see so many well and in good spirits, but the notable absence of Minfia’s begins to press down on her, coming to a head when her mother returns to Limsa Lominsa. When Nivienne encounters Minfilia in the Aether Sea she is terrified of what has become of her. Ever since Hydaelyn saved her in the Preatorium, Nivienne has wondered why she was still alive, and what Hydaelyn intended for her. What happens to Minfilia seems to her like a fate worse than death, but she tries to remember that Minfilia chose this. As they speak about the other realms Nivienne feels the weight of her own mission grow. It is not just her own world she needs to protect, but all the shards… and she had no idea where to begin.

Vhnemdkjf purble irep! Can we see more fairy irep and anti-fairy peri?

Yup!! During their schooling, where the most amount of swaps happened, the two would end up swapping in more than just color palettes!

Sometimes Peri would get caught scheming and plotting Irep's demise (Revenge for Ruining his Science Project). Or Irep will get caught doing something very nice and wholesome for another Fairy (Helping a new student find their way around school).

Just as Anti Cosmo and Cosmo has a bit of each other's personalities mixed up, Peri and Irep has a bit of an overlap in behaviors, haha. They both love to monologue, for example. The more swaps a pair does, the more mixed they get!
