no cause no one gets them like I do. no one gets the dynamic between them like I do. no one sees them like I do. I just want them to be happy. please just let them be happy. let them find peace. let them heal. let them be.


with the exception of @hyperfixatedfandomer cause they get it too
#I can't even put it into coherent words#I'd kill for them#I'd go to war for them#I'd die for them#I understand their complexity#I would sit for hours and hours untangling every one of their layers and intricacies#I would right essays and ballads and symposiums for them#I *get* them#I want to hug them#avatar 2#avatar the way of water#spider socorro#miles spider socorro#miles socorro#neytiri#avatar#neytiri te tskaha mo'at'ite#neytiri sully#I think about them and cry

Blitzøs entire life spent being unwanted. So he adapted, and learned how to be something needed, something to be used.
Which is why I think he firmly believes he is being used by Stolas. He simply cannot fathom a different reality, one in which he is wanted for once in his life.
#if you get it you get it#I don’t understand how Blitzo haters don’t get it#he’s complex and he fucks up but it’s because he cannot fathom being genuinely wanted and loved by someone#since he has never felt genuinely loved or wanted#and the few people who maybe made him feel that way#he ruined their lives#I’m writing a fanfic currently with this concept if anyone’s interested lmao#stolitz#helluva boss#stolas#blitzo#hellaverse#helluva blitzo#helluva boss blitz#helluva boss trailer#blitzo x stolas#hazbin hotel#imp#imp helluva boss#blitzo buckzo#protective blitz#protective blitzo

an angle i enjoy in cosmic/eldritch horror is when, instead resorting to the old classic "the horrors being so incomprehensible that they break your brain and drive you mad" cliché, the premise is that in comprehending the horrors you are so changed by the experience that your new state is indistinguishable to an outside observer from madness. you comprehend the unknowable just fine, but actually communicating that to anyone else is impossible because they just don't have the mental framework required to understand it. the eldritch horrors don't drive you mad. what does is the ordinary everyday horror of finding yourself isolated, ridiculed and doubted at every turn, no matter how hard you try to make yourself heard and understood.
#🐉#this is why i liked the way tma did it#where the eldritch is more or less a direct allegory for trauma (among other things)#and how those experiences can make the entire world seem like a different place and make you feel crazy#when other people dont understand what seems so clear and obvious to you#apartment 'complex'? actually i find it quite simple. no guys really its so simple you gotta believe me. why dont you believe me.

why is it "this is what happens when you tell white boys they're devils :(" when it comes to the white male alt right pipeline but no one calls for empathy for uneducated right wing white women. what about the high school girl to isolated stay at home mom pipeline. where is their loneliness epidemic
#how come i never see ''this is what happens when you tell white girls they exist to give white men sons :(''#it's ''how do we reach today's young white men :(('' but no one has tips for reaching right wing women#why is that i wonder#i feel deeply betrayed by female class traitors and have done my best to understand why they are the way they are#but they're a lost cause and white men aren't because women are not complex human beings#and men are just so sensitive you don't understand

"kabru doesn't even like laios"
meanwhile, kabru:









#i dont even mean this as a romantic thing necessarily its just people do not understand kabrus relationship w laios at all#he was chasing after laios the whole time how could you say he hates or doesnt like laios#labru#kabru#laios touden#dungeon meshi#anyway the characters and relationships in this series are so good and so complex but ppl are incapable of seeing past surface level#and its frustrating

My lame hot take is that Stan doesn't pay his taxes because he genuinely doesn't know how tf it works. He was kicked out at 17 and he technically just lived out in his car the whole time so it's not like anyone ever taught him how, so he just doesn't.
#This is also from the perspective of someone who also doesn't understand taxes#And I don't imagine any of you adults knowing exactly how it works ngl#That stuff looks complex asf!!#sput chatters#my post#stan pines#stanley pines#grunkle stan#gravity falls#Tax evasion? Nuh uh- this man has no idea how tf taxes even work

MDZS x Firefly AU: A ragtag crew.
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#mdzs au#firefly#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#lan wangji#jiang yanli#Wen Ning#Wen Qing#nie huaisang#xue yang#A-qing#That's right! this month's flavour of MDZS AU is Space Western!#I recently rewatched the show and forgot that the lore essentially made everyone bilingual in Mandarin and English.#It's fun to hear characters talk in mandarin and now understand a little bit of what they're saying!#A Firefly AU fits them so well and I need to talk about it.#I have strong thoughts about my placement for all of these characters. Let's start with the most likely to be contraversial:#I think a less thought-out AU would pitch Wei Wuxian as the Captain or a Companion.#But there are a several reasons why that would simply not be the case:#Wei Wuxian is smart! He's good at what he finds a passion and interest in! Piloting is a complex skill that grants him a freedom to explore#He wants to kick back and chill! He would hate the responsibility of being the captain! That's JC's job!#In my heart he's also second in command - which does make WWX essentially Zoe and Wash smashed together.#Companions are also persons of high rank in this universe. Something WWX is very...not defined as.#Someone beautiful of higher social rank...someone who yearns for someone they want to explode in their mind...It was no contest.#I think there are a lot if really interesting things to explore with LWJ as a companion. Functionally they are similar to Courtesans -#But it isn't always about the sex - A Lan Wangji who sees himself only through the wants and needs of others -#is a really interesting angle I have been pondering a lot about.#Final thought to close up this long ramble: Yes. It is so essential that every space crew have a 'Weird Teen (girl optional) on board'.#Will I post more of this? Maybe! If people want to see more!

You draw Glinda with such innocence and trauma in her gaze, her brain is either empty or too full of informtion.
also i want to eat ur art i love it sm thank you
Glinda, my complex lil idiot child I love her a lot <3 and as my fav she gets the fun treatment™️
I see her as someone who feels very deeply and where her words fail, her demeanor speaks instead. Those sad brown eyes and anxiety brows carry a lot of weight, and I’m sure there’s a certain green bean who’d love to lighten that load one day.
Thank you for the ask :D I hope my stuff keeps you and everyone else well fed!
#fooze#confused-reading-ink-rat#wicked#wicked the movie#wicked the musical#wicked fanart#grin and bear it#glinda upland#elphaba thropp#gelphie#I’m so glad Glinda exists as a character. she’s a 10-course meal of complexity#honestly all of them are but she’s my favorite so I hyperfocus on her the most#the one thing everyone can understand about her is she wants to be with her Elphie :(

being an alfred pennyworth fan is so strange because so many of you are wrong. what do you mean he's a saintly father figure there to quip at everyone and be the voice of reason???? you don't even KNOW him.
alfred 'abandoned his daughter to run off to gotham only to not raise bruce as well, who promoted all of bruce's worst habits like the #boymom he is, who chose bruce over the children but still didn't let him forget that he was not his father, who lied to the family about julia's existence and blamed her for their bad relationship' pennyworth?
I love him because he ruins everything he touches and is the world's worst father. you like him because you have fundamentally misunderstood him as a person.
you're saying THEE #1 dc toxic boy mom is a saint? what the fuck are you guys ON about?
#seeing people want alfred to be perfect and getting mad at JULIA FOR EXISTING#theyre my two favorite characters nons of you understand them#HES MORALLY GREY!!! HE'S NOT A SAINT. YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THE NUANCE AND THE COMPLEXITIES. NOOOOO!!!#i like him BECAUSE hes lowkey a bad person#pennyworth 2019 return to me.... you understood him#i feel like i may be swinging a bat a hornets nest hmmm#dc#alfred pennyworth#batman#dc comics#julia pennyworth#bruce wayne

I love when people play with the idea that Dick and Jason are bound together by a father that no longer exists. It's something only they can relate to each other on. If one of them goes down, the surviving one loses the one other person in the world who understood what it was like to have Bruce as a father before trauma flayed the skin from Bruce's bones.
#this is one of the reasons why i love sibling characters so much#sometimes your sibling is the only other person who will understand how you grew up and what your parents are actually like#but it can be way more complicated than that#because sometimes siblings have the same parents but grow up completely differently#like the first born child might get so little from the parents but then a child that's born 10 years later will get so much from the parent#it's so interesting how complex it can all be#Dick Grayson#Jason Todd

no but it cracks me up that all this time buck was walking around with this feeling of “my bro is the most attractive dude on the planet. like, he’s so pretty, any girl would be lucky to have him. i’m kind of jealous of them (joking, of course. or am i?..), but i get it. and he’s also such an amazing dad. and he’s so smart, and so brave, and so reliable, and so funny, and so cool. literally the best person alive. i’m just happy for his girlfriends, ‘cause they get to have this guy to themselves. but also i hope he never has another best friend like me, ‘cause no one is allowed to take my place in his life. it’s all i have”
and eddie was walking around with this feeling of “wow, i just made the bestest friend in the world. he cares about me and he loves my child so much. i want to spend all my time with him. i want to talk with him about everything. i want to listen to him talk about everything. i want to see him every day. i trust him with my life. i trust him with my son, which is even more important than my life. now that i’ve gotten to know him, i can’t really imagine my future without him in it. also, i have this weird swirl of feelings inside my chest when i see him with his romantic partners, but i have no idea what it is. it’s too confusing for me, so my brain is just kind of unable to process it. i trust him with my darkest secrets and i’m not afraid of him seeing me at my lowest, ‘cause i feel like he always accepts all of me with understanding instead of judgment. my life feels empty and wrong without him by my side. i might need him almost as much as i need my son at this point, wow. he’s just the most important person in my life. again, after my son. but i realized that i need both of them beside me to feel happy”
and for 7 years, they genuinely didn’t understand what it meant, because eddie was too inexperienced and emotionally repressed to be able to comprehend what his feelings actually meant, and buck was too unaware of what his feelings for men meant
so all these years they were really just walking around being in love with each other but not having a single idea that they were, because they really thought that this is just how platonic camaraderie feels like -
until tommy's intervention and eddie's move to el paso finally opened their eyes and gave them a new perspective from which they could look at their feelings toward each other and finally be able to understand them
their story gets me every time. like, it’s so stupid and unhinged and beautiful
and something like this really could only happen by accident, ‘cause i don’t think any tv show writer is smart enough to create something so raw and complex as their relationship from scratch
it just kind of happened by itself. and i love it
#buddie#also i feel like people who don’t understand how eddie can be gay are allergic to complex characters#have you seen his backstory??#plus demisexuals exist you know#evan buckley#eddie diaz#bi buck#gay eddie diaz#buck x eddie#911#911 abc#911 show#911 meta

Yami has placed people in two categories: 'Yuugi' and 'Everyone Else'
#yami: i love yuugi and all non-yuugi's the same amount#kaiba is seething in the corner because he's been relegated to 'everyone else'; jonouchi tells him to stop being so dramatic#to be fair i'm pretty sure jonouchi does the same thing as yami so he can't blame he other#when i'm in the 'who treasures yuugi the most' competition and my competitor is yami:#but seriously this shows how much yami misses yuugi and how much he values him and his company#not that he does not love the others any less#its just that yuugi is yami's most precious; yami would do anything for his aibou#yuugi understands him and knows him in a metaphysical level#calling them partners is a bit redundant to describe them because what they have is so intricate and complex#they are more like two halves of the same being#they drive me insane#puzzleshipping#yami yugi#yuugi mutou#yugi motou#yugi moto#yugi mutou#yugi mutoh#yugioh#cide watches yugioh#cide watches yugioh dm#yugioh dm#yugioh duel monsters

'He would not fucking say that' only it's 'That child would not speak in full fucking sentences.'
#basic rule of thumb is two year olds are expected to be able to use TWO words in a row.#some can do more. some can do less.#but please assume that if a child is under three they are not speaking thoughts more complex than 'I want that' or 'I am [sad/hungry/mad]'#Occassionally you'll hear a pretty complex thought like 'It's snowing outside!' but that's only certain kids#If they draw your attention to something it's usually just the word 'LOOK' and a bunch of pointing#If they're upset words go completely out the window and you'll just hear crying/screaming. possibly the word 'no' or 'Mama' or 'Daddy'#Kids tend to say 'mama' or 'daddy' even if those people aren't in the immediate area#Tho I have had the hilarious experience of hearing an angry kid loudly scream for his older sister#are there exceptions to the rule? yes of course#also: most kids understand social cues before they can actively participate in them#So for instance when I put on my coat they all start yelling 'Bye Maggie!' even if I am actively having a conversation#They also know that it's typical to greet someone when they come in the door but they don't know WHEN or HOW#which results in them just. Yelling your name at you when you come in the room. Sometimes they'll say 'MAGGIE HERE.'#When the phone rings they yell 'HELLO??' at it.

Let us be brutally honest with ourselves and with eachother for a moment. If he weren't obese you motherfuckers would be capable of percieving evrart claires sexy sexy moral ambiguity and complex charms
#i am (lesbian) sipping him like a fine DESSERT WINE#my evidence by the way is very simple and very damning. joyce messier. there i said it.#if you guys can appreciate the fact that Joyce is a complex figure worthy of disgust yes but also worthy of empathy#despite being a venal coward facilitating acts of violence and slaughter of the organized working poor of martinaise in the name of capital#if you can understand that she is a dimensional figure while also being an embodiment of the moral apathy and cruelty if capital owners#but you cant look at evrart and see that he is (while deeply flawed and morally suspect) also a dimensional figure#on top of the fact that his motivations are eminently relatable and dare i say it baser#and his greatest failing imho is in failing to advocate for the interests of *all* the poor of martinaise#opting instead to marginalize the inhabitants of the fishing village in favor of a power grab in the interests of himself and his union#though this is imo a bit of a grey area morally. undeniably a wrong and bad thing to do but done in service of clairs political goals#to gather power to advocate for the working class against ultraliberal monoliths like wild pines and fascistic orgs like krenel#still super wrong but i can follow the moral arithmetic there tho i don't like it#but like my point is if u can see that joyce is evil and pathetic but still cool and sexy but you consider clair flatly distasteful#thats cus hes not conventionally attractive#cus he is *every bit* as dimensional and interesting as joyce and he is not nearly as politically shite even if hes interpersonally a jerk
