#I'm screaming into the void

Fuck it, tag speak gets it's own post.

Jayce teaching Viktor how to meld metal/getting him to help with blacksmithing but getting distracted by being so close and Viktor sweating is rare and they decided never to do that again.

I don't know what's more unbelievable. The fact that all of what was supposed to be Good Omens season 3 is now gonna be cramped in 90 minutes. Or that I found out because of a fucking destiel meme.

c caught up, the horses are no longer slow, i repeat, the horses are no longer slow

[dollypopup]

no but like. . .it really is just so fucking depressing. it's *so* fucking depressing walking into the tags and the archives and seeing post and after post and narrative after narrative of the same damn Pen stan power fantasy of Colin on hands and knees for forgiveness. of how stupid he is. of how we want other people to swoop in for Penelope.

I love this character. That feels like a rarity in this fandom, but fuck it, I do. I love him. I love Colin. I love Colin's recklessness and his silliness and his honor and his hero complex. I love that he doesn't say the right thing and that he's all but howling for someone to hear him. I love how he makes friends with all the unconventional people and I love how he doesn't subscribe to the same narrative as all the other couples. I love him for all he is. For his mess ups and his triumphs.

And forget what the show will have happen, but what is *wrong* with us, that we can't muster up ANY empathy for him at all? Don't you remember being 20 and with no idea what you'll do with your life? Don't you remember being young and aimless and unsure? Are you always perfect with what you say? With knowing when other people are interested in you? Have you never hurt someone's feelings without meaning to? Have you never said something about someone behind their back who means so much to you in a moment of poor judgement?

Don't you deserve tenderness and understanding, too? Why are we so punitive with him? I understand angst, I understand drama, but I don't know how we can be here for any period of time and not hate what we've done to him? Hate what we've done to *them*?

Is anyone listening? Is anyone there?

Do you know? Do you even *understand* how shitty it is? To pour so much love into this couple and see nothing but us hating on him? To have him as a favorite and see people calling him stupid, useless, hoping other people make him feel like shit? Nowhere is safe for us. Even his own SHIP isn't safe for us. It's just wanting him to grovel and be humiliated and jealous and sad. Where's her pride in him? Their support for each other? Where's the encouragement? The tenderness? Why have we taken their love story, that was meant to be about being messy, making mistakes, and being loved regardless, through it all, and turned it into a 'You have to suffer to deserve love' narrative, instead? Into having to be on hands and knees begging for care? Why is it everywhere? Why is there nowhere to go that isn't permeated with it? And why are WE the weirdos for loving him? Why are we the ones who need to suck it up and shut up? Why are we the ones getting bullied by other members of our ship? IT'S HIS SHIP.

What have we turned them into?

Colin is one of the best love leads in the entire series. THE best male love lead. No, I will not change my mind. And yes, I wholeheartedly believe it. Because I LOVE this couple. I love this couple so damn much. And every time I walk into these archives, I feel like some weirdo because everyone is salivating over the same Puritanical 'MAKE HIM SUFFER' shit and there's NOWHERE to go. There is never anywhere to go.

Why don't we love him more? Colin is fantastic. And doesn't Penelope deserve a fantastic partner? Doesn't Colin deserve a partner who strives to understand him?

Is the shape of our ultimate love story really one that's drawn facedown in the dirt?

So did Bella's insane performance as Ellie rewire any more brains or just mine?

Landscape practice.

I would be really really grateful if you considered reblogging my art 💛 (esp if you add comments in the tags!)

Nothing like dealing with an existential crisis at 18 (TW: Suicidal Ideation)

Seriously though like 3 people in my family are dead/dying recently, I found out my two best friends were FAKING being my friend for the past 4 years, I'm graduating high school, AND my cousin is getting married in like- 4 days and I'm crying at 7pm because I still feel guilty about trying to sabotage my old ex-friends friendship which happened 4 years ago. Apologies mean nothing from me apparently, friendship is a lie bc I'm clearly doing something wrong/I'm not good enough, and I deserve to die but I'm too cowardly to kill myself. I wish I would get hit by a car or something because I literally don't know how much longer I can continue living like this. If someone were to break into my house I would probably be up crying and end up begging the person to kill me. We don't even have the money for me to go back to the hospital either- I'm just fucked. I have no support now, no friends, I'm loosing family, and I'm too depressed to draw. All I can do is vent my struggles onto here because I have literally no where else to go and I can't overwhelm the few people who are in contact with me. It's not fair to them, and they need all the support THEY can get because they're ALSO suicidal. I literally feel so ill I can barely even move my hands to type. I keep calling for help but nobody is answering or the people who DO notice fucking hate me so bad they refuse to help. All my tears and guilt in the world wouldn't get someone to forgive me- and it's not getting me help either so I'm... just alone. I've tried so hard to become better- to do better- and its just- not working. I'm stuck, and it hurts- and I just want to relieve the pain. Everyone else who is around me is saying I'm doing what I'm supposed to- that they're proud of me for trying- but it isn't helping. I wish I'd be forgiven at the least- or that I'd die for trying to become worthy of it. Yet I feel like I'm going backwards- If this is how everyone else lives then I don't want to live at all. I don't want to have more friends just to fuck up again- just to be lied to- I'd rather just die and rest forever.

Most people the night before an important interview: Oh! I'm so nervous! I have to get there on time, and I have to practice my answers to the potential questions! And I have to dress appropriate! And be there on time!

Me tonight: F U D G E! I messaged the person who would be interviewing me as soon as our interview was scheduled if it would be over the phone or in person and I STILL HAVEN'T GOT A RESPONSE. I DON"T KNOW WHERE I NEED TO BE FOR THE INTERVIEW. Which means I have to get up early tomorrow to call in as soon as they open (I hate talking on the phone) to ask if my interview is in person or via call (another phone call).

I. am going. to. erupt.

[oh-snapperss]

they'll fund a genocide and let their poor regions be destroyed. don't fucking forgive them for that.

my hometown is completely gone from what pictures i can find of it, i have not heard from my family (including aunts, uncles, parents, one sibling, and a grandparent), and the infrastructure in the mountain communities is wiped out. i cannot stress how catastrophic this is, or how difficult it will be for these communities to build back. i am angry, and scared, and heartbroken by everything that's happened.

and our government is spending it's money to fund a genocide.

free palestine, and don't be complicit. realize that this is not something happening that doesn't affect you--although it shouldn't take this to care about the deaths of thousands of people anyway.

guys how am I supposed to live laugh love in these conditions

I think a thing that people get wrong about Jason's anger is that it's not explosive.

It's cold. Jason isn't the type of person who storms off at every little thing or goes throwing tantrums and setting things on fire blindfully.

He's the type of person who's very practical. He keeps to himself, always. You rarely see issues where Jason's anger is reactive at the moment where the trigger happens to him. If you see his character up close, most of the time when he's triggered his reaction is calm. Even cold.

He gets triggered -> He keeps to himself → He makes a plan → And then he reacts.

Jason's anger being something explosive and out of character and out of place is actually how other people (characters) see it, because they have no idea on how it's playing out on Jason's head.

And that's a thing you can see operating since he was a child.

Where the only exceptions about this effect is either when someone he believes needs his help is involved.

See Nightwing Annual (2021)

But In Batman #411 when Jason learns the fact that Two-Face was responsible for his father's death and Bruce was keeping that from him as a secret his first reaction isn't to blow up on him.

Was to seethe.

Bruce goes up home after dealing with a Two-Face case (in my field we call that poetic irony) and asks Alfred where Jason is, Alfred's answer is that he's been sleeping all day (which is a conclusion that Alfred drew probably after going to check on Jason and seeing him in fact on his bed all day).

But when you see the next panel, even though he is on the bed, He's fully awake and both his expression and his body language shows that he's in fact angry.

This is the first time he appears again in the comics after learning that Two Face killed his dad.

Jason doesn't go towards Bruce immediately to demand an explanation or ask why he did this, or even to throw the truth on his face.

(Which could be debatable that that's something the Dick would usually do, but I'm not that literate on Dick's comics)

His reaction wasn't immediate.

His reaction was to go to his bed and stay quiet. Jason stayed calm and collected the whole trip until meeting Two Face again.

But the moment Jason as Robin has the opportunity to get his hands on Two-Face he does this

From Bruce, and maybe Alfred's perspective it could be interpreted as out of place or him storming off.

But it isn't. Jason was able to keep his cool (even though he shut off), until he was face a face to Two Face.

Does that mean he planned that to happen?

That's debatable, in any moment of this issue it is shown that Jason was actually planning to get to Two Face and do this. I my personal opinion, other and much more plausible explanation is: That he was in fact trying to keep to himself but couldn't hold back the moment that he saw his dad's murder.

You can see the same thing happening as Jason learns that Batman got another Robin in Red Hood: Lost Days.

Talia asks "You all right?" and Jason's first answer is "Sure Why Wouldn't I Be Alright?"

When he's alone he finally has the moment to break down.

(Actually both Red Hood: The lost days and Batman: Under the Red Hood are great case studies on how that usually play out on Jason's head.)

Jason is way more in control of his emotions than people ever give him credit for. The thing is that Jason holds it back until he either blows off or is capable to throw it back in someone's face.
