Holy fucking shit. Holy shit.

Kristen cannot let herself be angry, and as Kristen is Cassandra's only follower, she cannot be angry without getting hurt.

It's not about Kristen hurting her, it's about Kristen not letting herself deal with her trauma.

i'm sorry but i don't think we should call this the "autism website" when there's still posts with tons of notes mocking people who:

struggle with social skills / have anxiety around social settings

are unemployed / unable to work certain jobs

have intense or "age-inappropriate" interests

haven't had certain life experiences that are deemed universal/essential

struggle with personal hygiene

don't have any friends or dating experience

don't go outside much or at all

take things literally / don't get sarcasm/jokes

have unusual ways of speaking

generally aren't "normal"

Everyone focused on the Jayvik true divorce arc of episode 6 but I’m still stuck on the ending of episode 5

You mean to tell me that

1) Vi and Powder are ACTUAL BLOOD RELATED SISTERS and not just found family

2) Their mom was one of the original architects/planners of Zaun with Silco and Vander

3) VANDER FUCKING NAMED VI????????

And both of the girls unknowingly ended up being cared by their mom’s best friends, which explains so much. Like, I think we all just assumed Vander just saw these orphaned children and was like “well I guess these are mine now” and same with Silco and Powder but NO THOSE ARE THEIR BEST FRIEND’S CHILDREN OF COURSE THEY STEPPED UP TO TAKE THEM IN!!! THEY ALREADY LOVED THEM

THE POWER OF LOVE BROUGHT VANDER BACK TO HIMSELF AND THE FUCKING GROUP HUG AT THE END DO YOU HEAR ME SOBBING

WAIT

Odysseus breaking from the monster mindset to plead with Eurylochus over the cows because he knows how this ends. They’ve already played this out. They already know the cost. After everything Odysseus being the one to see the parallels that lost him one friend and being helpless to stop the other from doing the same damn thing.

Polites was the lamb for slaughter, a death of all of their innocence and a realization that their journey was far more fraught than the war they all had just lived through, but Eurylochus could have been different. Could have, but he was stubborn, set in his ways, a cow set to pasture day after day and reliving the patterns he had learned.

Tonight @fiotrethewey and I are participating in our new favourite pastime of Low Budget Dracula Adaptations. We’ve just discovered Wrath of Dracula, which was released this year. And DEAR LORD.

MINA HARKER LEARNS KUNG FU.

MINA HARKER DOES NOT KNOW WHERE ROMANIA IS.

MINA HARKER IS IN A BUDDY-COP COMEDY WITH VAN HELSING AND WE’RE HERE FOR IT.

Angband falls. Beleriand sinks. And Maglor’s wandering when comes across an emaciated hand on the sea shore. Now, it’s not uncommon to see bodies and limbs especially with the mass death of so many orcs and elves killed in the War of Wrath.

But this one he recognises.

The ring bearing the star of the Crown Prince turned King, at the time only recently given by a dying father to his eldest son. The misshapen gold from a young nephew learning his craft, worn with pride even in the darkness of Beleriand. Favoured gemstones embedded in a more elegant ring given by a younger brother as a gift for reaching the highest level of scholarship.

But he wouldn’t need any of that. Not really. Because even scarred and bloodied and shrivelled as it is, Maglor recognises the hand of his eldest brother, left in an iron shackle on the heights of Thangorrodrim.

A hand taken trophy by a Vala and enchanted never to decay. A prize with a place of honour in Morgoth’s Iron Hell.

A hand that’s all Maglor has left of his older brother.

Cradling the slowly decaying flesh, Maglor slowly works at pulling off the iron cuff, careful not to damage Nelyo’s hand any further. It takes days. Weeks. But he refuses to make another mark on it. When it finally comes off, he tosses the cursed object to the depths of the sea, and for the first time, leaves the shore.

Ulmo watches as the Singer makes his way inland, single minded focus driving him away from his lamentation. Maglor walks and walks, weeks, months, all the while carefully protecting the last piece of his brother. The Vala of the Oceans isn’t the only one watching as he stumbles and falls and fights what orcs remain with terrifying fervour until he at last reaches what he’s looking for.

A fiery chasm. One of few left in an almost sunken Beleriand. Just big enough to do what’s needed.

Kneeling at the edge, he holds the hand to his chest, and for a moment it’s like Nelyo is there with him, promising it will be ok. It’s all the courage he needs.

When Maglor falls, he doesn’t feel fear. Pain. Grief. Or even the fire.

Only his brother welcoming him home.

I don't know if anyone can relate to this, but

Every time I get invested in *any* media, I immediately write in a new character that I think would be interesting. And create a backstory and lore and relationships for that character.

I insert them into the episodes to see how my OC holds up, and I make tweaks to them to make sure they work. And I write episodes featuring them that genuinely move me to tears, as I write this *in my own head*. And I'm not really interested in writing a fic with this OC, because it feels like it wouldn't hold the same meaning as it does in my brain.

Sometimes, these stories overlap and I can't quite figure out what story or character or media I want to latch onto. My head gets really full and I can't think straight, can't even listen to music because that's just another input.

My friends and I call it the Greek Chorus, when they overlap like that. I don't know if anyone else has a Greek Chorus or even just one solitary singer, but it's wild out here.

You gotta draw more soulless Val + Boba >:)

Something seems familiar about them ..?

And one last attempt to get a decent screenshot showing Midnight Wrath’s overall size.

(While technically using Toothless’ model as a base, it’s peculiar that they’d not make this just a costume and instead make her an entirely new Night Fury with the implication that she’s consider mystical “among night furies” despite the only other one being Toothless. Sure it’s just silly gameplay shenanigans but you just have to wonder sometimes how much of it is silly gameplay shenanigans.)

A lot of the time when seeing deathists talk on the topic of life extension makes me want to reach out and say "the cultural tech we as humans developed to avoid freaking out about death is working too well on you and you're stupid on this topic forever now. I am sorry."

What do you mean Leo made Percy a dog whistle that has "LEO + PERCY 4EVER 🖤" engraved onto it???

What do you mean it lights up in rainbow when it's used???
