Ephemer + physical touch
#khux#ephemer#you can never go wrong with a gifset inspired by the love languages on this website#I think he’s great at giving physical touch. but I actually think /his/ love language are words of affirmation#there are a lot of times where he gets strength from something one of his friends said#like when lauriam talks to him. or when skuld tells him that he has their support. so on and so forth#likewise I bet these lil gestures do a really good job at grounding the others or instilling confidence in them when they need it#the way that it’s mostly player in this…..<:)#I think /their/ love language is physical touch (and eph can tell haha)#my posts#timeless child#dandy kids

i'm starting to realize this might be an unpopular opinion but i don't really see ivan as very possessive when it comes to till?? i think his self esteem is too low for him to think he has the right to stake any claim over him tbh jvbsdk. idk, but considering the way he was jealous of sua and not mizi makes me lean towards ivan mainly just being extremely obsessive
i think if they were to ever be in a relationship ivan would definitely be more possessive, but i kind of feel like till might end up being the more possessive one of the two •_•
#ivantill#alnst ivan#alnst till#i just think that as it stands ivan doesnt see himself to be in a position where he CAN be possessive if you get me#and if they were together he'd def be possessive but he'd also be like. smug as hell and the confidence from till liking him at all would-#reassure him a lot#meanwhile... i just think till would be shit at hiding jealousy#ivan is popular and it annoys the absolute shit out of him bc ivan is so fakely Nice to everyone#being so used to ivan's intense attention makes him feel off balance when anyone else gets that attention yk#alien stage#alien stage ivan#alien stage till#cast's analyses

When your oldest brother dies on a religious crusade just as you feared he would and your father refuses to deal with his grief just as he refused to deal with it when your mother died (you were a baby btw) and then again when your other brother left home (because your dad was impossible to live with) and in spite of feeling entirely abandoned by your dad you use your newfound higher status to put yourself out on a limb in order to downgrade his punishment and that of your close friend despite grieving their involvement with the queen who led your brother to his death but instead of your father acknowledging your pain and your attempts to do what you believe will bring justice he lashes out at you by comparing your current position to the horrific way your mother died…just Eärien things
#I straight up will not tolerate Eärien hate on this post you will be blocked!!!!!!#I am not asking everyone to love her the way I do ofc but like...maybe attempt to see things from her point of view#I have seen people say the show hasn't given us enough reasons to sympathize with her and I find that pretty fucking unbelievable#given how much emotional investment I've seen fucking waldreg get (for example)#I also love Elendil!!! but he has from the start been a subpar father to her and that is simply textually a fact#Earien does not have the knowledge we have about where Númenor is headed#moreover she does not have insight into Miriel's leadership in the way Elendil and Valandil do/did#the expedition to the Southlands was a straight up disaster that Míriel herself turned course in order to embark on#I love Míriel but I can't blame Eärien for losing complete confidence in her leadership#and for wanting justice for Isildur's death#earien#rings of power#rop spoilers#Elendil critical#to be clear I think these writing choices are great and super juicy and the characterization of Elendil and his family gives me life#but the fandom reaction is NOT IT#Eärien defense squad#rop op

I’m happy for the little life I built for myself
#there’s a lot of ways to go#i am nowhere NEAR the dream life I really want to attain#or the dream person I want to be#but high school me#hell even freshman in college me#would GAWK at the life I have so deliberately made happen.#the solid network of friends I have#the confidence I’m slowly but surely growing into#the discipline I’m harvesting bit by bit. i do not claim perfection but I am 100% improving#I’m just happy idk! i don’t compare myself at all now bc I know I’m on the right track#especially compared to where I was like 5 years ago. such a different mind state from now#and no one can take that away from me#there’s a lot more to go. a lot more. but I thought I’d pause and be intentionally grateful for what has been accomplished#bc it actually puts things into perspective to look at the past rather than just look to the present. it creates contentment#i get so caught up being hard on myself for not accomplishing certain things yet#that I forget I pulled myself out of such a deep rut by the skin of my teeth#and that’s important to keep in mind even as you progress to your goals#anyway <333 happy content in my own lane etc etc#p

one (understandably) underappreciated thing about madara is that he's one of the oldest characters in the series,,,, yet even when he's literally a wrinkly old caveman on life support he never switches from using ore to using washi.
almost every other old man character uses washi, and even some of the ones that barely qualify as middle-aged (mr raikage sir you are 47???? hashirama and tobirama are even worse; you cannot tell me either of them made it past 35)
meanwhile madara's all "whatever i'm gonna get revived anyway i don't have to change shit"
#naruto#naruto shippuden#uchiha madara#i know naruto gets a lot of shit for calling everybody old#but in his defense so many characters talk like it????#like if you're gonna use washi around naruto i think it's fair for him to start calling you occhan or whatever#g-d grant me madara's level of delusional self-confidence lmao#japanese#i don't remember him ever using washi ever. and neither did obito when he made the switch from tobi to darth vadara#also this is unrelated but what the fuck is going on with obito's legs#that is not where his knee(s) should be i'm pretty sure

idk guys like zhao yuanzhou trolling zhuo yichen and wen xiao and everyone is funny and for sure he is just doing it for fun sometimes and to create safe distance other times but definitely a good chunk of the time he is genuinely like being vulnerable or trying to connect and being met with of course skepticism or some other refusal and then haha of course he was acting, he was just messing with them. Like he makes things jokes that didn’t start out as jokes. Right? Like even on day 1 when he was generally trying to be sinister and confusing like he was so happy to see wen xiao as happy as he could be about anything in that headspace anyway and really tried to tell her about his promise to protect the wilderness and then even after she scoffed and he decided to make it a joke, the “if even you don’t believe me—“ that part too came from something real, that is a real desperation that he is tamping down, and i think so many times pre-ep-17 wen xiao or zhuo yichen giving him that look, like ‘wait that seemed maybe real, or is he fucking with me again’ it’s not just because they’re naive, he’s really not so much more worldly than they are, i think it’s because they feel or see for a second that this isn’t a joke, and then either they decide no it cant be real that would be too— (too sad, too absurd, too much right now) or he decides first and either way haha what a good actor what a tricky demon. Can’t believe he got me again!
#this isnt really that subtle and not a controversial read i just was much like zyc and wx Fooled#to the point where when wen xiao Found Out It Was Her (? shige?) i was like wtf why is he crying#fangs of fortune#here i am. made into a surprised pikachu by this show yet again#it was the ost choices that finally fully convinced me of this#like he really wasnt an impenetrable wall up to ep 17. like in effect he might as well have been kinda but#you know what it is it’s how people act when they’re REALLY lonely#like ‘havent confided in a safe person in years’ lonely#you’ll just suddenly tell the truth regardless of who’s around hoping someone will see you#and if no one does or you’re afraid of letting it sit long enough for someone to (bc where did that even come from) you cover it up somehow#Deeply Lonely Person Gets Really Truly Loved is not the only angle of this show but it is Up There

A rough sketch of Lan Wangji as he is in my magic AU story A Stay of Execution.
I'm like a 3rd of the way done writing the first full chapter of this story, but I do have the prologue up on my Ao3 already, as well as a several years old "scene dump" with various moments that I was kinda laying out for the story that may or may not make it into the actual fic. Let me know if anyone wants to see this cleaned up and colored? And I can give you the link to my Ao3 as well if you're interested.
#lan wangji#lan zhan#hanguang jun#mdzs#mo dao zu shi#It's a Wangxian Story#Where WWX is the one who is in love and pining#LWJ loves him back eventually#Lan Wangji offers to marry Wei Wuxian to save him from getting executed for “war crimes”#WWX has been in love for years#LWJ... respects WWX as a person#But it's definitely a happy ending for both of them#I really love the story I have in my mind and I want to do my best to get it down to share it with others#but I'm always so nervous about my writing that it takes a ton of encouragement for me to stay motivated#Not really trying to fish for it or anything#but it's the truth.#I really need to work on that confidence level#Anyway that's enough tag rambling#let me know if you want a link to the fic#asoe#Or if you just want more details about the fic itself!

what is your favorite thing about charles and your favorite thing about erik? separately, as in what you like most about their characters :]
a devious question this one is, my friend!!! it's hard enough for me to explain my thoughts cohesively, but having to pick ONE thing i particularly love is difficult. with characters like charles and erik, theres been so much done with their characters over the decades and so they have so many components to them that make them so interesting and fun to observe. BUT I TRY FOR YOU TODAY. under the cut i kinda ramble and the size of this text box makin me anxious
i think if i were to be simple and broad, what i enjoy most about charles is his determination to help others, even if he isn't really thanked and/or if people don't even like him. ofc, this isn't to say he hasn't done wrong- to be honest, the fact he does wrong/questionable things at times is another aspect of him i really enjoy, maybe because- broadly speaking- he's meant to be altruistic (intent vs outcome and all that). i don't know if that's super exciting to most people, but it is for me
as for erik, my reason for liking him is easier to explain tbh. To Be Simple And Broad, his progression from villain to antihero over the decades has been fun to observe (as much as i have so far anyhow) and analyze. i think to be a bit more specific, him using his rage and pain as justifications for his villainous actions is definitely what compels me the most: hurt people hurt and the sort, an idea i've always found interesting (something something vicious cycles and the like). yet now, he recognizes this wasn't really. A Just Thing To Do and is beginning to change that, which i enjoy
#snap chats#may you forgive me anon i always feel awkward explaining things AVELKJEAKLJ#i feel esp awkward cause i haven't read toooo much of the comics yet- like ive read. an ok amount so far krakoa wise#can you guys tell im fighting god himself to Not write a fuckin. NOVEL#im so sorry i have an over-explaining problem my mom was mean to me growing up but anyways#i definitely want to read more and more outside krakoa. the more i read the more im fascinated by these two and their history#but to continue my prattling. as if the three paragraphs above arent enough This Is Not A Thesis RELAX#i think a. 'poignant' moment i think adds to what i like about charles too is that soliloquy where he recognizes people dont like him#yet he could always be worse- like if he's bad now to others imagine if he really just said Fuck It All#it's simple but so am i whaddyagonnadoboutit. i mean that point itself could be discussed but i'm trying to keep this brief bear with me#i so bad want to know what issue that's from tho all i know is that it's from krakoa but i neeeed the whole context#i think like. an additional bullet point to charles i also like is his loneliness#and i say this cause- I Say From My Amateur-Psychology Armchair- it's a component of why he's so earnest to help#but im keeping this point in the tags until i can confidently verify that with myself after some more reading#Unfortunately a favorite pass time of mine is psychoanalyzing characters like why else you think i major in psychology smh#im going to force myself to cap the post here because i ended up typing like 20 more tags just rambling#and as i said id like to keep this simple and clean !!!!! i have sat here for like four hours answering this ngl#ignore the fact half that time was spent getting distracted by solitaire and riffling cards ok I Am Very Easily Distracted#but fr when it comes to charles and erik- charles esp imo#i feel like i need to write a whole paper just so i can mention the nuances of the characters and like. EVERYTHING#because again six decades is A Lot of time for writing decisions to be made and for their characters to change over time#im a glazer but i wanna be a nuanced glazer yk. is that glazing at that point-- w/e anyway#its a lot. so today you will have to tolerate a very Blah answer from me which i must apologize for#down the line once ive read a comfortable amount more varying from multiple eras maybe ill revisit this question more in depth#as of right now tho .... chat i wanna get legion of x so bad i skimmed it and hhhhhhhhim gonna throw UP#i need to shake charles like a ragdoll BUT ANYWAY. bye bye for now lovelies !!!!!!!#please forgive me if i didnt answer your question efficiently ..#here i am saying i wanted to keep the tag count brief and yet !!! jesus christ. shut up My God I REACHED THE TAG LIMIT

I hate it when my chronic illnesses are chronic and my disabilities are disabling and my seasonal affective disorder is seasonally affecting me
#sorry that i've been complain-y lately but it is truly not my time right now.#i've got a dr's appt scheduled to hopefully get some meds to help but I am going THROUGH it in the meantime.#I'm no stranger to headaches and pain and lethargy and dizziness etc but it is just persistent right now on all fronts.#but I am okay and I will persevere. and I started a new animal crossing save file so that's keeping me semi-occupied.#I wish I had more brain space for creative endeavors right now but if I need to just rest through it unproductively then so be it!#at least it's just a regular flare-up and not covid or flu-A or noro. the call is coming from inside the house for better or worse I guess.#at least I can pretty confidently say that this isn't actively dangerous so much as it's just incapacitating.#i could not say the same if it were something else so we take wins where we can get them I guess!#btw all 3 of those aforementioned things are spiking right now last I checked so it is a good time to mask if you don't already!

"Wackus Bonkus" (Hand): make angst
Creator: ohh, you naughty wackus bonkus
#ooc#not queued#literally me a few weeks ago trying to force myself to not get bored of this blog#this is my excuse for making angst#also it might not seem like it but Ink is my favorite character#he's so like#idk#he's so interesting i like him so much i just don't like writing from his perspective#i love making him a really dark shade of morally grey where he's not a good person but he's not like#a bad person#he just exists a certain way#i do like dynamics between Ink and Swap where Swap is trying to see from Ink's perspective and understand him#but also on this blog him trying to justify Ink's actions because he's a friend clouds his judgement of what's generally morally correct#sorry for the ramble i really like this little paint boy if you can't tell#aforementioned ramble is correlated to the next post for the record#not very confident about it but i do want to show character stuff and give little spoilers n hints about what's happening#i gave the silly little blog a proper timeline/storyline oops#updated to include the wings i forgot to draw fml

thinking about superheroes unfortunately
#random thoughts#let me daydream about batman in peace#love the dynamic between spiderman and deadpool#it's that kind of dynamic i love where two people have power over each other in different ways#like spiderman is a well-loved public figure and deadpool's idol while deadpool is a dangerous mercenary with regeneration powers#physically deadpool probably outmatches spiderman through sheer dogged perseverance#while in the public eye spiderman is more well-liked AND deadpool is feverishly obsessed with him#i'm gonna keep forgetting the hyphen between spider and man btw fuck the world#loving the idea of a spiderman who KNOWS deadpool can do better and believes in him while deadpool gives him a space where HE can be himsel#like spiderman has so many masks he has to put on around other people#i think deadpool should be one of the few people he can truly let himself loose around#yknow before he can get to a point where he can reveal he's peter parker#also i think peter parker in his ideal state suffers from severe identity and self confidence issues#like he thinks spiderman is a seperate persona he puts on which is superior to himself in every way#(okay seperate thought: DID spiderman. the spider bite being so traumatic it led to him creating a split personality to cope.)#(or separate. whatever.)#also age difference. peter should be in his mid-twenties while deadpool should be in his thirties. need more power imbalance#also they're both sa survivors and their personalities could be interpreted as them handling it in vastly different ways#with deadpool being hypersexual and spiderman being flirtatious yet distant and peter parker being borderline celibate#though honestly i could leave spiderman being an sa survivor given it was a whole 'gay people are all predators' psa#also i think spiderman should have been held back in high school. due to struggles relating to being spiderman#so he graduated late and now he's going to community college#peter parker has the luxury of going incognito. wade wilson will always be stared at no matter what he's wearing#deadpool who every superhero hates. spiderman who every superhero organization is trying to recruit desperately#also i think peter should admire wade. physically. built like a brick shithouse that one#also the third act low point CAN'T be about spiderman feeling guilty because deadpool kills people#okay? it's overdone. we've seen it. it's lame#i prefer when their opposing views on murder are treated in a more 'death penalty or no' way rather than assuming deadpool is always wrong#because spiderman's idyllic 'people can change' beliefs can be just as wrong as deadpool's 'assholes deserve to die' beliefs#and spiderman has definitely killed people are you kidding me. both accidentally and on purpose

Does anyone else feel like the incinerator gun chair room from Zero Time Dilemma would have better fit C Team instead of D Team
#elaboration in the tags#zero time dilemma#zero escape#ztd#I think of this every time I watch a playthrough and get to that room#carlos ztd#akane kurashiki#junpei tenmyouji#c team#like just about any combination fits with the potential character growth both Akane and Junpei would have from it#I understand the main character is Carlos so if we were to keep it as him making the decision then I would have Akane in the incinerator#and Junpei in the chair#but if we’re going to throw ‘main character chooses’ then you could truly have either Akane or Junpei at the gun with Carlos in the chair#I say all this cuz there’s the obvious Akane incinerator parallels and I imagine it could trigger a breakdown for her#if Junpei is behind the gun would she beg Junpei to shoot Carlos to save her?#would Junpei see that Akane sees other players as pawns to save her own life? and if she doesn’t beg does it help Junpei#see the humanity in her? where he previously thought she was uncaring but here she clearly is to save Carlos at the cost of her own life#but my fave configuration is Junpei in the incinerator and Akane at the gun#it helps them see from each other’s point of view. how scared would Junpei be being in the incinerator and there’s nothing he can do#but rely on someone else? Junpei in characterized as pretty selfish in ZTD so this experience could have him empathize with Akane’s#‘selfishness’ in the previous games. realizing you’d do it too if your life was on the line#and Akane can see just how difficult it is being the one to directly have a hand in how people die or at least see their bodies.#and is it worth it to just save one person?#yes Akane’s games have a way for everyone to survive and win at the end. but in the moment the players don’t know that.#I think that configuration would do SO much for akane and Junpei to better empathize with one another during ZTD#this could’ve been a whole post but I wasn’t confident enough in my coherence to properly format it. so tags you get

Also as much as i hate blonde rodya you guys do realize translations differ right. The original wording used has translated differently to either dark blonde or dark brown thats why you see a split of the two. Realistically the original hair colour is still brunette so i just dont want to see him as a blonde its scary.
#floyd.txt#dark blonde aka light brown. fair blonde is when you get me . where did you get that from. disgusting#in a short time frame ive seen people be very confident that their translation was the only one which is like okay...#i dont like the blonde version but i know its out there
