Thinking about season 3 and how a large part of the Roy and Keeley break up was that Roy didn’t see how he fit in Keeley’s life anymore and he didn’t want to hold her back and get in the way of her career and aspirations
And thinking about how a big part of season 3 was Keeley moving on with Jack at the same time as we were seeing Roy figuring out what to do with his single person time by volunteering to help Jamie get even better and reach his career aspirations…
Also thinking about season 1 and how Jamie was portrayed as a big man baby who couldn’t do anything by himself and constantly needed Keeley around and to do things for him by the way Keeley made his appointments for him and picked him up and went with him and how he brought a backup date and was sleeping with someone else right after the break up with the whole what was I supposed to do shower alone thing
And about how in season 2 the issue we saw with Roy and Keeley was Roy enjoying spending every minute together and doing everything together while Keeley felt smothered by his constant presence
And in season 3 how Keeley’s two exes that were too codependent on her became codependent on each other and spent more time with each other than anyone else without there ever being a plot line or even throw away comment about them being sick of each other from spending so much time together (and instead even after they got in a literal fight and spent the entire night together it’s hey are you hungry let’s go get something to eat together)
#And how Keeley having a spend all your time together thing with Jack was great for her at first and imploded#I love RJK but the RJ dynamic set up is way stronger than the rest of the stuff for if 2 were going to be together at the end of season 3#successfully but also this is more reason Keeley needs them both and they keep each other company when she needs a break#RoyJamie#RoyJamieKeeley#Roy Kent#Jamie Tartt#Keeley Jones#Roy x Jamie#Roy x Jamie x Keeley#Ted Lasso#Mine

He's a magician
#how does eiden keep doing that#that. naked magic. tablecloth sweep but suddenly it's rated oops for selective nudity#this is the 2nd time i've drawn eiden motion blur swiping yaku's clothes off. will this become a pattern?#yes i am still thinking about aegis r2. naked apron forever#i know there was probably an interlude. a moment between R1 and R2 [R1.5]#where eiden said TAKE OFF YOUR CLOTHES ok now put the apron back on#and yakumo's all ??? JUST the apron? ?? ??#then we go into R2 and it starts with yakumo questioning eiden's costume direction#but i wouldn't put it past eiden's mystical part time abilities#to be able to selectively nakify his clan members#haHA! behold! the art of misdirection! NOW WITH SEXY CONSEQUENCES!!#at some point in the future eiden will show off his tablecloth swoosh trick (the legitimate one. that actually uses the tablecloth)#and yakumo will be mildly wary the entire time. hands hovering near his crotch area as he was lucky to do the FIRST time#anyway eiden performs the trick successfully. no one's clothes slide off. the tablecloth is swooshed. the dishes are intact.#now we can either leave it at that or go the route of Violence#like the dramatic samurai strike. there's a moment of nothing . THEN EVERYONE IN THE ROOM LOSES THEIR CLOTHES IN A GUST OF WIND#EIDEN'S ULTIMATE ATTACK!!!!! PENULTIMA NAKED FLAME RENDING SHREDDINATOR RISING TORNADO!!!!!!!#nu carnival#yakuei#nu carnival eiden#nu carnival yakumo

protyping the beast
#it's still funny to me that when i got into keeping reptiles i thought of leopard geckos as aggressively boring#but than i stayed with someone who had one as a pet and she won me over so hard with her personality#now i'm obsessed with them and working on becoming a breeder#idk when you start out you sometimes want the coolest and rarest creatures but over time i started caring more about how comfortable they#are around humans and if they can successfully be captive bred#also i'm autistic about genetics/animal breeding and leos are great for that#especially because absurd fancy names for gene combos aren't common so getting into it is easier than with ball pythons where morphs are#called hyper vanilla extract road rage

I simply think this fandom doesn't give Wei Wuxian enough credit for the various ways in which he saved Lan Wangji
#mdzs#mo dao zu shi#wangxian#idk man- i just see a lot of “Lan Wangji has always been protecting Wei Wuxian” posts and its like...#I mean... Lan Wangji has always certainly been trying to protect Wei Wuxian#it took him a long time to figure how to successfully do that though#rereading the books rn and noticing theres a lot of instances that could be read as lwj being frustrated over his inability to protect wwx#like he seemed ready to cry when wwx went missing for a while and then came back with the cursed leg#lwj has always been great at protecting wwx from physical threats (ex: waterborn abyss) but had no idea how to protect him from himself#meanwhile wwx has always been instictually good at saving lwj from both#like I'm 100% lwj would've become like Jiang Cheng if wwx hadn't snapped him out of the blindly following authority thing#and also like... 15 y/o lwj wasnt happy with his life. he was lonely and stressed and literally signing up to be flogged whenever he goofed#wwx is who allowed lwj to grow up by showing him what it was like to actually be a kid (shown in story whenever lwj gets drunk)#he led lwj to having a more flexible mindset. and it both let lwj relax and set lwj up to be a better parent#looking into lwj's dynamic with the juniors- he lets them break a fuck ton of the petty rules and encourages them to question authority#he also teaches them to not be married to any one meathod of problem solving#wwx is also able to save lwj from his own stubbornness#ex: carrying lwj when he broke his leg. getting lwj to cough up bad blood. getting lwj to keep the rabbits#wwx also tends to give lwj the words he has trouble saying himself. helps him communicate#wwx also protects lwj in fights a lot but thats narratively less important#except the various times wwx puts himself in danger to help lwj. those times are what made it so lwj could never move on from wwx#like with the cave incident#or when wwx helped surpress the arm instead of using the chaos to escape cloud recesses#tldr i guess: i think this fandom tends to treat lwj being the best like its natural to him when really wwx accidentaly rewired his brain#I'm looking directly at fanfic writers who act like the Lans would've treated wwx better than the Jiangs#lwj had to do so much work and self reflection post meeting wwx to be the way he is. he is not the sole product of the Lan teachings

Just so we clear: never wanna see anyone who praises the crap out of How To Train Your Dragon live action complain about Disney Live Actions again, because they literally the same thing: slop that is just made to bank on nostalgia, with How To Train Your Dragon live action not even trying to make any changes from sounds of things, going shot for shot while Disney at least tries to throw some changes into their live actions to add justification to their existance (not all of them are good, aka look at Lilo And Stitch 2025 being American propaganda basically).
#saying this now because apparently the live action has apparently had the biggest opening day in the httyd franchise which is just...#y'all can fucking boycott the crap out of snow white successfully#only to then go and see lilo and stitch and how to train your dragon 2025....ensuring we gonna keep getting this slop#well fucking done i guess#do not complain about the next live action cause its the same slop no matter what this point...

#listen... hes just a guy who wants to protect his shifu via going to the only guy whos ever successfully kept said shifu safe#I like to think he looks up to qingge because this is the only person on the whole peak who has ever kept shifu safe and mf is someone who#wants to be strong.. and then everyone loves shifu one way or another be it paternal maternal platonic romantic aesthetic#how could you not want to be like the strongest person in the world (to you anyway) esp when this strong person keeps your parental figure#safe... anyway thats just my interpertation#ming fan#svsss#scum villian self saving system#art#digtial art#my art

What if we were both magic prodigies and it otherized us in different ways and we devoted ourselves to protecting a family member who has general other goals & priorities. What if we both did self-sacrifical devotion in opposite ways.
What if we were dark mirrors of each other and where I've grown overcontrolling you've grown complacent. What if, bought as a servant into a pretty loving home, ownership and control is what love looks like to me, and to you neglected and lonely growing up, love is gratefully taking any scraps of it you’re lent.
By belonging to someone, even if she comes back injured or fails at finding Delgal, she feels like she belongs and is cherished, by owning someone he feels safe in them not leaving him.

She’s what’s tethering him do you see… And he’s the only thing giving her direction and purpose in her state. She needs a compass and he needs a support.

They’re both so out of it 😭 It’s the weirdly intense and unearned mutual trust and reliance on each other?? They’re each other’s weird little comfort codependent teddy bear. Or at least they were headed towards that before SHE DIED THEN HE DIED THEN THEY BOTH FORGOT ABOUT EACH OTHER AND NEVER MET EVER AGAIN. Though she’s also the guard attack hound keeping him safe… And vice versa he heals her and can rewrite her very being with just one wave of his hand. They’re both so so mentally and physically vulnerable both but they cling onto each other. They can’t perceive things accurately but despite it all someway somehow they stumble into something closer to resembling companionship just before they both die. Falin is just that kind and Thistle is just that lonely. Overworked.
We both haven’t lived for ourselves in a very long time, haven’t we.


They both have a similar devotion to the people they love but again the difference is that Thistle starts overtsepping while Falin is self-effacing. The other difference between them is that people care about Falin <3 People have given up on Thistle long ago, and he has given people reasons to, while people refuse to give up on Falin. Yaad has a mini arc about it dw about it it’s ok he’s not all alone in the end 😭😭 He reached out for Marcille’s hand but they already all wanted to help him, they just had to be given the chance to, Yaad just had to be given the chance to, it’s okay I’m okay
Hey what if we learned to get in touch with our own identity and the world around us and living in the present again through being in the worst codependent situationship ever.
Falin and Thistle sitting in a tree, sucking on flowers together because they’re h-u-n-g-r-y 💕💕💕


I bet he’s only ever thought of flowers as useless ornaments. Weak weeds. But she shows him they’re tasty and useful and good and pretty in their own right too and deserve existing without proving their worth and waaa <33 Thistles…... Did you know thistles taste sweet if you remove the thorns and eat them?
"Even as a chimera, her kind nature remains" you can’t suppress her in the way that matters. You can’t soothe him in the way that matters. It’s doomed. You’re doomed. It’s all doomed. Save me.
#Spoilers#dungeon meshi manga spoilers#Thistle#falin touden#thistlin#OOOOH UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIP THAT SOMEHOW WORKS OUT SAVE ME#I need them to be traumabonded kittens to not separate post-canon#I’m seeing a raise in post-canon thistle content/interest which makes me v happy#Fumi rambles#Falin learning to disobey orders with Thistle is one of my fave things. EAT THAT CURRY GIRL!!!! Nvm that it’s gonna get you killed#It’s good for the character arc#Falin and thistle sitting on a web o-b-s-e-s-s-i-n-g <3#This is somewhat of a tldr of my huge thistlin post. Plus some thoughts i had in discord or twitter#Keeping it for another day but tbh if you see their dynamic in canon as her thinking/having picked him as her mate it changes nothing#about her behavior which I find funny. Thistle accidentally claimed himself a parrot mate bc he’s bad with monsters confirmed#Ik my thing of them learning to relax and live in the present moment again is pretty fanon BUT IT’S WHAT KUI POINTED TOWARDS#With her calming him down from a panic attack and eating berries. With the baths for dandruffs. Etc. Thistle hasn’t socialized in a long#time and he wouldn’t if it wasn’t a tool he needed to interact with BUT it’s still socialization and it’s getting him in touch with his#surroundings again even if just a bit slowly but surely!! The Toudens have a superpower in reaching Thistle. Bless#How’s that one post go again. he refuses to develop he's part of the problem he maintains the cycle he's trapped in the cycle.#she's growing she's finding her place she escaped her original role she wants to help people she will never save him she will never save hi#Something something they have to abstract each other bc relationships with humans have always been too charged and unsafe#Only by seeing each other as more concept than person more object than peer can they truly be vulnerable#Like the fuckedupness lf their dynamic and state is WHY they’re so attached. Why their dynamic could be so raw and needy#The stars aligned in the worst way. Mission successfully faile#Tfw we both need to feel needed

ok so @arrowfortea tagged me for an oc vibes meme, but i don't have. pictures. but i wanted to yap about my lavellan regardless. so i made this little expression chart to show her General Vibes.

i'll tag @moonsomniari and @octosan and @icharchivist if you want to post some vibes based images of an oc! i would love to see them >:)
#jpg#i have never successfully found Images for a character in my life alas...#afira lavellan#<- she has rather understated jumpscare reactions bc she is a dirthamen tenets follower#and thinks that showing any sincere emotions in general and especially fear is Cringe and Unacceptable#i left the vallaslin off bc it's hard to draw on a small scale and keep readable but she's got it#also if she saw something cute: no she didn't! fake news! slander! she is above such things! she is looking away.#thank you for coming to my oc lore ted talk#i like making little expression charts for characters it's very fun to try and get the features vaguely on model#and figure out how they would express things

Have you ever wanted to draw something but you fought due to your skill level at the time you decide not to do it
Nope. Anytime I want to draw something, I draw it. I absolutely refuse to let anything stop me from making what I want. No dumbass insecurities are gonna keep me from releasing the artistic energy from my brain.
I actually ran into that feeling when I started drawing furries for my COTL comics. I'm definitely not as good as cerian artists when it comes to drawing them. Am I going to let my "lower skill level" stop me from drawing them? HELL NO!
Not to mention, placing yourself into a level of "skill" greatly hinders your artistic mind. Don't bother thinking about where you lie on a certain meter of talent or intelligence when it comes to art. Just DO IT.
Art isn't about completing something when you're ready for it. It's about exploding your brains out onto a canvas of your choosing because your brain needs to speak to something that can understand it.
Go watch literally all of these dudes videos to understand what I'm saying
#asks#I refuse to be weak and let my fears and anger keep me from successfully drawing things from my brain#if i cant find a way to draw it properly from my own effort#i study artists who already understand what im lacking it to see how they break down what i want to draw#never EVER give into your insecurities

Starlo's personality
I'm still confused about this man's 'true self,' gotta admit. How much of 'himself' IS there in 'North Star'?
What we know about real Star:
He's a nerd/geek obsessed with westerns; that's where he got the inspiration to build WE
He looks different than with the hat on and used to wear braces
Was shy in his teenage years around Ceroba (no idea how he acted normally) + couldn't confess to her
His mom (after killing him) says how he's never been the one to follow rules. I wonder what she meant by that. Rules, like, you're supposed to hate humans like everyone else or rules, like, no sneaking off to practice your shooting and lasso skills? Both?
Ed describes the 'old him' as a fearless leader and as a monster who could 'make his own fun in the little things' (you mean he used to be more humble but at the same time remained an ambitious risk-taker?)
Is insecure about where he comes from and what he looks like
We don't have enough info to know what he was like as a kid. I'm curious if absolutely everything about North Star is the opposite of Starlo (I don't think it is); both are kind and protective. Still, I can't help but wonder if the Starlo after Showdown, in both routes, is the real him or not. Maybe 50% yes and 50% no
Just from the end credits, the only thing I got about him was that he's kind and friendly and optimistic and charming (North Star is this way too, but more exaggerated). Nothing new
So maybe Starlo IS North Star, but more modest (aka not as exaggerated)
I'm curious about your thoughts guys.
Also I forgot to mention how he wanted to plan a PARTY for Kanako, in neutral says that the PARTY in the saloon was great (and the letter he sent was pretty charming), wants to accompany Ceroba in the Steamworks, is open about how he feels (immediately openly confronts Ceroba and calls her out; he's assertive), not afraid to get physical if it means protecting Clover & Martlet, can be pretty loud (like when he spotted Clover after sparing him in neutral, he was like "DEPUTY!!!"
I'm left wondering if all this is the real him or not. I think it is. Just maybe toned down a bit :) It's the only explanation for the fact he's been doing all this for a really long time and never showing signs of wanting to stop/that it exhausted him
#undertale yellow#uty#starlo uty#uty starlo#I wanna analyse his personality in a lot of detail#Just have to figure him out first#Is he actually a quiet shy guy or nah#Personally I think nah#Since he decided to be an entertainer#And 110% adores the role#I mean the dude successfully kept the persona FOR YEARS and dina didn't suspect he was a fraud#How the heck did he find the motivation and strength to keep up the act for that long#And use the fake accent#I don't think that's an introvert trait#I'd get exhausted after 1 day of acting#Also he wasn't as excitable as AFTER he discovered westerns#My boy just wanted a purpose and had none before#Love how dedicated passionate and ambitious he is#He took a HUGE risk by building this town but took it anyway for everyones sake#So they'd have a fun place to go to to pretend they're on the surface#Starlo DID value status but isn't it controversial to build a wild west town based off of HUMAN history#It was a risk for stars reputation in the underground and he TOOK it#He's way less selfish when you think of it this way#Sure he adored the attention but it wasn't the only motivation

help I am intricately designing things in my brain instead of sleeping again
#original#this is a regularly occurring problem#I went to bed over three hours ago#I was doing some 3D modeling before bed#working on a small box in which to contain my knitting stitch markers for easy access#it's decent but could be better#I wrote down some notes for future me so I wouldn't keep thinking about them and went to bed#I successfully did not think further on how to improve that box#instead I ended up ironing out several wrinkles in the design of a DIFFERENT project I last touched... oh. five or six years ago#pentomino battleship#so now I have a nice solid plan for how I want to model that#which is fabulous#but I was not intending on doing that tonight#and I have plans in the morning starting in 7 hours#not counting the getting ready in the morning and going there#Octopus Makes It Complicated#again.
