scars in fiction: I got this trying to save my lover from an assassin- but tragically, I was too late. now I carry the mark of my failure with me always, and I can never forget~

scars in real life: so I was trying to open macaroni sauce with a paring knife

there’s something so .. deeply beautiful about the scene where shigaraki finds himself in the vision sequence during the PLW arc.

when tomura sees hana first & makes sure to remind her that he doesn’t blame nor hold a grudge against her for telling their father that he found the picture of their grandmother, when in actuality, his sister unearthed the picture. he makes sure to say this with a small on his face as people are often perceptive to facial expressions when trying to see if one is telling the truth. he does this because he understands that during their childhood, hana was a victim as well. if kotaro didn’t beat tenko, he would’ve beat hana for going through his stuff.

when he sees his mother, she’s larger than life. this is unlike hana’s vestige which remained the size that she was when he accidentally killed her. tenko viewed nao as the center of his universe so her size reflects that. instantly when he realizes it’s her, he regresses to his child form. even when he had already accidentally killed mon & hana, nao still attempted to hug him to pacify her baby. hearing his mom ask if he’s okay healed a deep part of his grief that he ended up blocking out because he couldn’t move past killing his family.

his love for his mother & sister is completely unconditional. despite everything. he would probably pick them to be his mom and sister all over again.

july seventeenth, day one.

today is the day! i’m leaving for japan & honestly i’ve wanted this trip so bad for years that i’m scared that things wont live up to my expectations.

i spent some time looking for the best airport fit & i got this cute little fitted tank from garage. i don’t shop in there much but i need to. little pricy but it’s hard to find stuff that fits me so finding stuff that fit me was perfect. had to fly to detroit to get to haneda so i waited in the sky lounge. pretty nice experience! so far so good.

gonna tag all my posts with japan trip so i can access them later because this trip will last ten days 🥰

🐣 when i tell you the intensive amount of stress i’ve had this semester .. you would NOT believe it. i was in six classes & it all worked out amazingly as i finished my final semester of my undergraduate degree on the deans list.

🍒 i was running around like a chicken with my head cut off when it came to commencement. i didn’t have a dress and the one i wanted was sold out then it restocked right when i needed it and i got it!! it was so pretty. my shoes were from amazon & were just little kitten heels.

🌳 i got my hair done on sunday and it was so fucking awful that i cried. the kicker was that it was $250 dollars. the braider soaked my whole head in gel & my parts were big and uneven and it was so heavy because she added so much hair. my dad saw and said it was fine but my mom knew how bad it was once she saw so i had to book an appointment for 6am at a braid shop for tuesday morning so i was up all monday night taking my hair down and re-washing my hair. but this time my hair came out AMAZING and i felt so pretty. the new braids were only 180 pre-tip bc i was so thankful 💗💗💗

🎓 now onto my actual commencement day. i had woke up so early and then took a nap because i was drowsy. then i found out it was raining!!!!! on my big day. i did my makeup all pretty because i bought some new products the day before. i tried the hourglass skin tint and really liked it because i only like a skin like finish. the honoree degree candidate was so amazing! i liked her speech. we started at 3:30 and i didn’t walk until 7:30 … when i tell you people around me were fed up to the point they just left?????

🪻 afterwards i met with my mom, dad, brothers and godmommy. everyone acted cordially which i was scared of not happening. but it was nice i was so happy godmommy could make it and my mom didn’t make it awkward. i got pictures that i actually liked too. very happy. my godmom had to work so she didn’t make it to fogo de chao with us. all around a good day. onto my masters.

🛫 for my grad present, we are going to japan!!!!!! japan!!! yay. we are going to tokyo, osaka and kyoto. i hope i can see the mha exhibit

it’s like let down after let down after let down after let down. it’s like a never ending cycle of being let down & it hurts… badly.

when it comes to this whole older women playing lads discourse, i think some of you haven’t realized that you need to romanticize your life. you only get one life. just because you get to a certain point in life doesnt mean you’re not allowed to have fun anymore!

i collect figures, collect tamagotchis, collect stuffed animals, collect & play games, play otome, wear graphic tees and i have two college degrees. these are the things that make me who i am. i am never changing and im glad! the years of shaming myself weren’t worth it. i even have major regrets because i spent so long shaming myself for the things i like. ive missed out on so many good opportunities

I like when people like a character so way too much that it transcends even self shipping or kinning and becomes more of a patron saint that you pray to type of deal

it's called a trap house cause you can't leave

artist statement below:

i'm challenging myself to draw art that's more personal to me. addiction is a struggle i face. a particularly bad bender caused me to have a near death experience, in which i legitimately thought i was going to die and saw the grim reaper waiting to take me. that was enough to scare me sober. i've been clean for some time now. for a while, addiction has robbed me of my creativity. the time i used to spend drawing was spent on parties and doing substances. but i'm ready to let that pain go, and let it coexist with my art.

i wanted to capture the feeling of being stuck in a trap house. i’ve been stuck there for 10-20 hours, felt like 10,000 years. i wouldn’t even remember what day it was. it’s like alice falling into wonderland and chasing the white rabbit forever. that’s how i felt

when you're talking about the character and the person who likes the character starts typing for a long time

i am so exhausted that i don’t even think i want to walk for commencement. something about being made to do something i don’t want to do solely to feel like an idiot afterwards makes me dizzy & stressed
