[butchfalin]

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

You know what we should bring back?

Older christianity. I mean the anti government, anti military, community based christianity. The one that cared the most about peace, equality, mercy, kindness, and radical love. The one with shared property. The one that didn't conform to society but instead existed mostly outside of it. The one where noone considered one sin worse than another because in the end, we are all sinners trying our best to be better.

"Bro, do you hear yourself?" "My man!" "I'm sorry that I am so delightful that my dimension change turns me into a fruit pop." "Do you think whoever runs this dimension just immediately saw me and clocked me as the fruitiest guy alive? I'm starting to think I /might/ give off the gayest vibes around." "If you wouldn't offer to make out with your best friend are you really even best friends?"

[killerslowpoke]

with the number of banana fish posts you put on my dashboard you are now legally obliged to rant and explain to me why i should watch it. take your time 👉✨

WELL... it's a very well-written, animated, and orchestrated piece of media. Please read its DTDD page first bc from the moment it starts to the second it ends it is an absolutely Tragic story: https://www.doesthedogdie.com/media/15970 That aside, I like it because it explores some themes that not a lot of anime do (like male victims of assault, human trafficking, street gangs) and knows how to intercut comedy with the heavier scenes and plotlines just the right amount. It has a unique style that I didn't like at first but eventually found it suits the show really well. The characters are interesting and I find that there's few that I truly hate, most of them are complex and show a side of humans that most of us can relate to, if even just a little bit.

The most prominent aspect that made me love it is (I guess general spoilers for plot but) the main character Ash deems himself a ruthless monster from the crimes he's committed, sullied by the abuse he has suffered, and unworthy of any love he was denied as a child. Then he meets this guy Eiji by chance, and Eiji, after only learning about how powerful and influential of a gang leader Ash is, treats him so normally. He tries to protect him, he tries to save him, he tries to get Ash to see himself as someone who's worthy of safety and happiness and peace.

Sorry abt the hwei posting . It will happen again

[poems-of-a-lover]

i am so. tired. i just wanna be held so i can sleep god dammit.

[mayordeas-clone]

i feel like im a little pretentious abt my lukewarm feelings towards three houses + my reluctance to enter fire emblem fan-spaces bc of the dread that everyone there is likely a three houses-head... but i also feel like this is extremely parallel to how i feel about project sekai and its effect on vocaloid fan spaces

like, i do not hate three houses or project sekai at all. three houses has Huge nostalgia credit for me + i think its characters and music are the best in the series! and project sekai while exhausting (due to it being a mobile gacha) is still a decently fun rhythm game that let me discover new songs in the vocaloid community beyond the scope of project diva's fossilized track list lmao

so because of that i feel the need to defend these games when they are derided by the people i seemingly would WANT to connect with (project sekai hatedom gotta be the most annoying people fr fr), yet at the same time these fans are saturated in the broader fandom spaces (fire emblem The 30 Year Old Video Game Franchise and The Entire Vocal Synth Multiverse) so i can imagine someone tired of this saturation being hostile towards them to like, vent

i shouldn't join in on the hostility even though it's so tempting but it is a little disappointing for me when a lotta the times when i do encounter a fellow vocaloid fan online or especially irl they mainly linger in the project sekai realm. the vocal synth community is so vast and varied yet the common fan comes from The Same Place. but that's prob just a me problem cuz i'm insane abt vocaloid but grr

(i never find fe fans irl but usually in the limited doses i get of them online it's often three houses related, or if not shipping related which isn't really my style. oh well)

big tragedy

[eddiediazenjoyer]

ranking the ways that buck denied being in love with eddie in this episode:

6. “this was not his house. he’s a renter” + “because i’m living in eddie’s old house therefore i must be in love with him? ” FANTASTIC missing of the point here. actually awesome bc that’s literally not what anybody was saying at all. like sure but also. what about literally everything else about the way buck was acting about eddie . but no he’s like SO WHAT IM LIVING IN HIS HOUSE? SO WHAT I HAUNT IT LIKE A GHOST AND SEE HIM EVERYWHERE I TURN? NOW THAT MAKES ME IN LOVE WITH HIM???? like nobody’s saying that but you man. but yes.

5. “he’s straight”. classic . clean. tried and true among gay people denying their feelings. says nothing about the state of your feelings while placing the entire weight of your argument on a fact that can (and will!) be easily refuted. great stuff.

4. “as much as everyone seems to want me to be hopelessly pining for my straight best friend it just isnt like that” love the redux of the eddie’s straight argument . and it’s IMMEDIATELY followed with him talking about what a huge insurmountable hole eddie leaves in his life. but he’s STRAIGHT . remember?

3. “are you?” “in love with eddie?” “it wouldn��t be so crazy.” “except that i’m not” the defensive tone . the pure confidence . this one is great bc it’s the first time that the unspeakable has been spoken out loud and he’s being hit over the head with it not only by his ex (who has now been confirmed to have broken up with him over this) but his sister . and he’s still closing his eyes and covering his ears and going LALALALALALAA . bc he’s CRAZYYYY 🫶🏼🫶🏼

2. “i understand him being threatened by what me and eddie have but—” like okay???? so you admit that there’s something to be threatened by? the way he says it so casually but there’s also such an undercurrent to it . simultaneously an acknowledgment and a dismissal. the subtext is getting subtextual but also clawing it’s way to the surface :)

1. “i don’t have to want to sleep with everyone i have feelings for” YAY FOREVERRRRR unbelievably awesome . no i’m not in love with him i just have feelings for him. hello???? and he SAID this. and he MEANT IT. buck buckleyyyy 😭😭😭 this one is going down in HISTORY

bestowing my highest honor as an artist to ffxv (drawing the characters in fun outfits)

thoughts under the cut

RREAAAGHHHH SO EXCITED TO BE DONE WITH THIS!!!!! it took me forevarrrr but i soldiered through as an act of love. now excuse me. yap time

OKAY SO the concept behind this was originally specific fashion subcultures for everyone!l ike noct emo ignis dark academia etc. but then decided i didnt want to pigeonhole it all and just freestyled outfits i thought would look nice on everyone

noct - i do think noct would still be emo-ish but also opt for comfy baggy stuff a lot. something you could just fall asleep in on the spot. note the details of bass pro shop shirt (of course) XV necklace, little moon + stars accents, carbuncle + fish keychains. i also wanted his metal band logo shirt to spell LUCIS but i forgor some letters but its not very readable anyways

ignis - ignit ooohghh ignos ignaurs. sorry i made him serve so much cunt it will happen again. i drew him first cause that kind of inspired this whole thing i love him so bad if i didnt draw it id explode. not much detail to note except his collar pins are like his double blade thingies

luna - lunaaa the concept was “clean girl aesthetic” idk if that happened but im actually really happy with how it came out! might be my favorite of the bunch just because she looks so pretty and happy. your honor she should have been able to just be a normal girl and just. chill

prompto - prompotoooo i had trouble picking his vibe!!! my first thought was techwear?? because weeheeeehee he loves tech and well... you know... but then i realized i didnt really like the look of anything i saw + it was so bulky and dark and serious for him! ending up going with some more youthful and baggy. i was considering something more loud and colorful but ended up not going with it. i feel like in canon he'd be too nervous to have such a flashy fit and would want to just look "cool" to fit in with the boys lol. itty bitty details here - chocobo keychain, pompompurin and bi miku buttons, and his lanyard is kings knight themed! i also thought it was funny to write LUCIS on his shirt like you know those shirts that just say BROOKLYN or TOKYO or SAN FRANCISCO and thats it. thats what its like

gladio - okay i know this is going to sound like a lie but im not horny for gladio like at all, hes my least favorite, i think he's just alright. but also i KNOW in my heart of hearts that he would LOVE being a leather daddy and so i had to make it happen. main detail to note here is that his tank top has the motifs of a cup noodle! i didnt know what else to add cause you know.. hes the cup noodle guy.. but also i didnt want it to be so in your face about it with a big as logo so kept it subtle!

(side note the leather daddy gave me an idea for a post where its like noct and prom go to a gay bar all nervous but then they run into gladio and its like "p: GLADIO YOURE GAY?" "n: nevermind that PLEASE dont tell ignis we snuck out" and then ignis walks up and theyre all like WHAT THE FUCK!!!! caption would be "the gang finds out theyre all bisexual." probably wont draw it but i think its very funny lol)

iris - iris my sweetheart.... definitely leaned into the scene vibes here and also that one image of the blonde emo anime girl. details here - of course the moogle big ass backpack and keychain (can you tell i love keychains), but also her buttons are an iris (the flower) and also a crown with hearts (haha symbolism)

anyways oh god i didnt mean to write an essay down here. usually i keep this in the tags but this time i just had Too Much To Say. can you tell i put a lot of thought and love into this . anwyays. *walks off into the sunset and fuckig dies*
