the fact of wyll being generally accepting and good toward those who are in the midst of making mistakes, are about to do a folly of some kind, or are perceived as lesser than or in some manner "evil" in society, made me think of how, to an extent I wish we could pry more at his perceptions of monsters as a monster hunter and deep dive into that in conversation but more than that I Do Think about how he reached this point of near unflappable patience and understanding after being raised a noble's son. an honorable noble's son, yes, but a noble still (with his little stories of his Youth he gives a few times.) he doesn't deny that's how he was raised but the expectation of a noble upbringing is so far removed from how he acts today, with you. his patience + sincerity + openness. and thinking of that in the context of how he is proud of the moment he swore his pact, the moment he was shunned, but no one else was proud of him in that moment, no one else even knew. how much that singular moment of such deep misunderstanding and harshness toward him must have embedded in him a very deep capacity for empathy for failure and mishap. no one ELSE was there for him so he can continue to be the Single Person there for you when you're faltering, quite badly, maybe even embarrassingly. no one was there to help or guide him with his pact with mizora either. he had no choice but impulse and hope that he was doing the right thing. as A SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD. so he can be that guy for everyone else in the meanwhile.

TW: Self Harm and Suicide
Imagine the 118 getting a call to a house for a suicide attempt. It's a teenager, maybe 13. She's hurt herself badly, maybe she hadn't meant for it to be as bad as it was. But her parents are not happy. And not in the sense that they're worried because their daughter just potentially tried to kill herself, but they're actually upset with her.
And they start saying about how she's been hurting herself lately, but it's just for attention. (You know, that horrible thing some people say about SH...) That she's not actually got any problems, she just wants attention.
And they're all pretty pissed at the parents, but they're trying to be professional, because they have to be.
But Buck just snaps. He was a kid who was hurting himself to get his parents attention. And it was awful for him. It severely damaged his psyche. To this day he still struggles to deal with people not giving him the right attention. So he knows how this kid must feel.
And so maybe he snaps at the parents, or maybe he just totally shuts down.
Either way, the rest of the 118 pick up on it. And it suddenly hits them what he was telling them all those years ago when he was telling them about his parents. It really hits them all that he was purposely hurting himself as a kid.

[little vent -- tldr definitely not gonna have the planned art ready for the renniversary lol.]
me: "oh hell yeah i'll have a dog-sitting "job" for the next few days, so i'll have plenty of time to work on the art leading up to friday :) "
the dogs: untrained, poorly behaved, require constant attention (not their fault but it's the reality of the situation)
so uh. i might have some simple chibi art for friday if i have enough energy between putting the dogs to bed and going to sleep hghghghgh ;;;;; i'll finish the more detailed pics as i have the time and energy :')

like it's all very well to recognise that I gotta have a fucking open-ended breakdown and jump face first into the Sadness Bog sometimes instead of sitting on all my feelings
but like
I still have to go to work, you know? it's like. ok yeah have a breakdown which like until you jump into it you don't know if it's going to last an hour or a year. yeah go ahead that's all grand. you do have to get up in the morning and go to work though. you're not allowed to not do that. or to not pay the rent or not shower or not eat.
like all my friends and loved ones are constantly like 'you know you're allowed to be sad right' and it's like. AM I??? because I STILL HAVE TO PAY RENT.

Went to Target during a trip to the next state over with Mom so we could have a fun day out, and I found DC Comics Manga, and this Joker one is so tempting to grab an ebook of
This sounds like a typical fanfiction plot idea and I'm all for it
Also, found some cute Lego polybags, which is a nice bit to add to my Lego collection I'm rebuilding, as I'm mostly grabbing small bags and bricks from thrifting
A cute farmer with a scarecrow and a bunny, and a "birthday train" micro build.
Also, I decided to finally try a minifigure blind box, since my Lego are gonna need some people for them, and golly, they've changed since I was a kid
I got an Olympic runner guy with running blades prosthetics and a Harpy with articulated wings! I found out that they're making minifigs now that includes some wild fantasy elements and disability representation. I really want to find the dog groomer one with the Afghan hound and has a cochlear implant, the dog is cute and since hard-of-hearing runs in my family, that has a bit of a personal sentimental concept there...
Anyway, my Valentine's day was pretty cool. Nothing but good luck, people were very polite and friendly, and absolutely nothing went wrong this year. 🥹
