You ever think how AWFUL Shadowheart’s parents lives were??? Like. Your daughter gets kidnapped and you have to watch as they twist her into someone unrecognizable. She doesn’t know who you are but she hates you. I gotta wonder if they tried to remind her who she was at the beginning and if it worked, only for her to be mind wipped again and again.

Decades of this! Kept alive only in the hope that Shadowheart would finally lose everything they ever taught her and kill them. Kept as a collar to keep their daughter in line just in case Shadowheart ever managed to escape.

We all talk about how Ketheric Thorm is a tragic parent (and he IS) but Arnell and Emmeline Hallowleaf are even more tragic to me even in a Good Shadowheart run.

I don’t want to take away from the idea that female characters should be allowed to be mean and still be loved and cherished BUT

I swear every single time Shadowheart says something mean in act 1, the very next moment she acts like it was a little triumph for her and she’s so pleased with herself and then she immediately forgets to be mean for another three sentences. I get the exact same vibes from her “mean” patterns of speech as I do from myself when I’m copying behaviors I’ve seen elsewhere trying to be “normal.”

like she’s mimicking lines she’s heard from other sharrans and then thinks to herself “I’m going to get a good grade in being acerbic! I’m so great at this” and then she starts cooing at the animals. like. sweetheart. I don’t think you’re actually mean

Contrary to popular belief the biggest beginner's roadblock to art isn't even technical skill it's frustration tolerance, especially in the age of social media. It hurts and the frustration is endless but you must build the frustration tolerance equivalent to a roach's capacity to survive a nuclear explosion. That's how you build on the technical skill. Throw that "won't even start because I'm afraid it won't be perfect" shit out the window. Just do it. Just start. Good luck.

Thunderbolts BRAINROT I cannot take more obsessions at this moment

Me when there’s so much on my mind but none of it can be manifested into words so I just sit there spinning in this never ending black hole

Can't be sincerely dark without being called edgy, can't be sincerely emotional without being called melodramatic, can't be sincerely silly without being called stupid. They're gonna hate every emotion you put in your art no matter what so make it anyway and be as sincere as you can be

I'm finally cleaning out my Pinterest so I can get some stronger ideas of my stories by narrowing down instead of continuously expanding for 3+ years...

I'm honestly so surprised at how interested in Thunderbolts I am -- I knew I'd enjoy the movie, but I wasn't sure if I'd really LOVE it like I do now.

I love you my emo avengers.
