#there are always exceptions ofc

[markiafc]

the important thing about me is most wholesome and lighthearted media makes me feel bad, and/or upset, and/or severely dislocated. but the intense and extreme stories with problematic themes make me a whole lot better, so much more relieved, more comforted, etc. i'm frequently soothed and my spirits are lifted.

Dick and Cass' adoptions being visual parallels is so beautiful actually. The focus on their expressions, as Bruce stumbles through a speech about how overdue the adoption is:

But how different the adoptions are too. How Bruce tells Cass she's free of David Cain, but says the opposite about Dick's parents; how Cass' adoption is framed as a choice, but Dick's as an inevitability. Because that's what both of them needed. Cass needed to make the choice, and Dick needed to know that the choice was always already made.

And he had great influence, both from the favours which he bestowed and the fear which he inspired, but more from the fear. At any rate, Sicinnius, who gave the greatest annoyance to the magistrates and popular leaders of his day, when asked why Crassus was the only one whom he let alone and did not worry, said that the man had hay on his horn. Now the Romans used to coil hay about the horn of an ox that gored, so that those who encountered it might be on their guard.

Just crazy to think about all the things the Doctor doesn't do, that he did for Rose. He never asks twice for someone to come with him. He doesn't go back to give people closure after they get separated. He leaves people behind and he doesn't look back. He doesn't do goodbyes

Wishing there were more disabled destiny characters in game...

One of the hardest parts of the books to adapt into a show is the characters. WHERE are they gonna find a convincing Andrew/Aaron or Neil.

honestly there’s no correct answer to this other than using unknown actors. i do NOT wanna see anyone’s disney channel ass playing any of the mains. jeffrey dean morgan as wymack whatever, matthew lillard as rhemann WHATEVER. but i don’t want to recognise like. any of the mcs.

i’m sure there’s exceptions for like allison, or nicky maybe idk but if i see fuckin. jacob tremblay playing neil id kill myself

Steve and Dally and Soda and Johnny and Two-Bit just causing mischief because they’re all near the same age and then Ponyboy and Darry playing go fish or Monopoly at home because they’re the two extremes- oldest and youngest. So they end up with each other a lot and their thing is just board games and small talk and just relaxing in each other’s presence

i love how quackity no longer lets his uneducated white friends make microagressive and sometimes downright racist comments towards him cause as a latina girl it was always a little disheartening seeing streamers that i liked laugh at a mexican for being called a slur and reduce hispanic culture to drugs and tacos

Since it femuary can You tell us more about Jade? She’s my baby girl I love her.

Yes! For starters she is actually shared OC! I’ve said this before but she’s shared between me and @spjs ! She first appeared briefly in Lost Opportunity and I absolutely fell in LOVE with her and JDs relationship like I legit could not see him without her in my mind SOOOO I uh… kidnapped her

She first appears in one of my works in this comic and then my fic Not the Only One !

For a throwback here’s the pic I’ve ever drawn of her!

Compared to one of the more recents

You can see how much she has changed and my arts developed XD I’m still using my funky pen tho hehehe

Some facts for the Jade you see in N2 au

She is the oldest of two siblings

She has partial iridescence in her hair

She and JD dated in high school

She hadn’t learned to cook until having a child (her parents wouldn’t let her near the stove)

She learned how to support herself and be independent through trial and error (self made woman)

She is very into wood carving and has made most of her own cutlery and dish ware

She also makes her own clothes, and has a knack for cross stitch

Unlike her son, she has no known allergies (Lief is allergic to stout berries)

She fights hard for what she wants but occasionally needs a push to start the fight

She both has a need to be in control of every situation but hates controlling people which occasionally leads to action paralysis

She has a deep love for her music and nature

Her favorite colors are pink and mermaid green and comprise most of her normal wardrobe (unless I’m playing dress up doll with her hehehehe)

Her voice claim for me is Penelope (Anna Lea) from Epic

I said she’s the oldest of 2 because she has a younger brother named Jasper! He was part of the group cut off during the last trolls time so Jade thinks he’s dead (and blames herself for it)

This is what he looks like! He’s a fully iridescent troll which means his colors shift in the light, he was favored by their parents because of it but hated both the attention and the way they treated Jade. Jade and him were very close and despite her objections he fully supported her moving out even if it meant leaving him behind. (He also lost an arm during the last trollstice so ye hehehehe)

Jade is a part of a few aus there's the main au linked above, a wip au called Jadepunzel ATM,

there's a DND au which I haven't spoken about at length yet but have a few drawings and lore some of which will be cross posted ambiguously on my main blog cuz it's only semi related

and then the Explorer au which has a few posts already!

She is so near and dear to my heart and I LOVE HER SO FREAKING MUCH

forever obsessed with how the movie and the musical versions of "the outsiders" read the part of the novel where ponyboy talks about how he doesn't like dally and doesn't see him as a buddy and the part where dally clearly doesn't like anyone in the gang except for johnny and immediately went "this sign can't stop me because i can't read" and made dally the most overprotective mother hen to both ponyboy and johnny and actually affectionate towards the rest of the gang
