LOTR The Return of the King - The Ride of the Rohirrim

R.I.P. Bernard Hill

ppl are too quick to point to laios' disability as the reason his friends think he's a freak sometimes. so many instances of laios getting yelled at are, in my eyes, a case of "this guy had to emotionally mature very early in order to be there for his little sister" combined with "much older friends who never had to learn to manage their own emotions to the same degree"

a lot of the time he's right about needing to be more direct/deal with things in a way that may seem scary/needing to put your gut reaction aside. he tries not to make his friends uncomfortable and he puts up with a lot because he's trying to keep the peace, but he also pushes the others out of their comfort zones purposefully to try to get them to think more constructively. everyone else in the party is prone to acting on their gut instincts and avoiding uncomfortable situations even when facing them head-on is very much necessary. part of what makes laios such a great leader is the fact that he knows from experience how to put his own feelings aside to help someone else grow.

yes, he does make a lot of social blunders by accident and he does struggle to connect with others, but not all of his positive influence on others is accidental or "despite" making people uncomfortable. a lot of the time, I think it's clear he knows exactly what he's doing and he's trying to help the people around him process emotions in a healthy way as they all go through some truly harrowing shit. all the main characters support each other as well as they can with their unique emotional skillsets. laios' skillset just happens to be "gently talk child into eating her vegetables"

May The Silenced rest in peace. His presence was so much more meaningful than he knew. Sleep well.

Also surprise!!! Y’all get Post-Haircut Wada too

I wrote all that stuff up there and most of the tags before [REDACT 085].

For real now, rest in peace little guy. You will be mourned.

So hello! This is my first post, and.. yeah idk I feel silly

[vinelark]

I grew up in Texas and most people my age don't have Texan accents, but some of my classmates in school had conditional accents (it would come out if they talked to people with a Texan accent and/or older folks).

Anyways this I'm bringing this up since I wish Kansas had a more country accent because it would be sooo funny if not only Clark but also Kon did this. Kon rescues an old lady originally from Amarillo or something idk and starts yes ma'am-ing and losing diphthongs left and right and YJ is like OH he is a country boy who happens to like punk aesthetics

my best friend has a conditional southern accent and it’s always a treat to watch the switch flip to On. that said, there’s also potential for similar scenarios with a kansas/midwest accent. consider kon in all his leather jacket punk rock glory sweeping an old lady out of the way of some alien ray mid-battle and going “ope, sorry about that” before blasting back into the sky

I posted this on TikTok for Pride and it's still doing numbers there and I was contemplating on whether or not I should put it here too but I thought y'all beautiful little people who live in my phone would like it so here

Guys, look at my terrible ass art. No I don't care that you don't wanna look at it. LOOK AT IT.
