#and accepting me

[imagine-a-life-like-this]

I'm in a soft mood, so I want to make a post thanking the people that have helped me feel so loved and accepted.

Every single follower I have, I want to thank you. I always receive a lot of love and support on my posts and it really keeps me going. So really and truly, thank you. Also we're all besties now. I love you all 💕

@hobasimp89 I want to thank you for coming into my life 8 years ago and never leaving. We've had our fair share of fights, but we always work things out and I'm forever grateful. You showed me what true friendship really is and I don't think I thank you enough for that. Here's to 8 years and many more to come 💕

@maeleelee and @mxnsxngie I want to thank you for helping me get out of my comfort zone. And for being there whenever I need you guys. And I know I've sent you 2 so many sappy messages before, but I truly love you both. When I was feeling insecure as more people joined our group, thinking you'd like them more and leave me behind, you reassured me over and over that that will never happen. Wifey trio is forever 💕

I would also like to thank two others, but I'm not sure if they'd be comfortable being tagged. So I hope you both see this. Zhane and Ari, I love you both so freaking much. You both were the first friends I made here on tumblr and both of you honestly mean the absolute world to me. You're both always there for me and have helped me with my confidence and I appreciate you both so much. I only hope I can give that same feeling to both of you as well. And I hope you guys know how much I love you 💕

Something I'm sure not a lot of people know is I struggle a lot with talking to people. I hide behind this (semi) anonymous tumblr and interact with people, and still I second guess every word I say to everyone. I just wanted to be loved and accepted.

Then the wifey trio decided to make a discord server and allow anyone to join. It was chaotic but fun. People found other people they clicked with and made new friends.

Honestly, I wasn't expecting to make new friends. I had my roomie, the wifey trio, as well as Zhane and Ari, and that seemed good enough for me.

Then @bunnyiix @acrylishly @cadenonlinelive and @babyboyquokka came along. And it hasn't been that long since we've all been talking, but you all have already made my life so much better. And I love you all more than words can ever explain.

It hasn't been that long since the 8 of us have been a group, but it really does feel like fate. We were meant to meet and start our own little family.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for giving me a safe space and a family. It feels right being here with you guys like this.

8 really is fate.

8 makes 1 team, my greatest loves. Here's to forever 💕💕💕

I need non autistic people to realise meltdowns are a real debilitating thing that has a serious effect on your mental and physical health NOWWWWW!!! The way its been trivialized and lessened pisses me the fuck off. It's not a tantrum and it doesn't come from "being too weak-willed" it's painful and it's embarrassing AND MOST OF ALL IT'S INVOLUNTARY!! Don't claim to be an ally to autistic or disabled people and then make fun of people who have meltdowns. Literally get the hell out of my sight

When Izzy first walked out I was worried that he would be made into a joke that the crew would laugh at

but then he started singing and the dancing began and I realized that he wasn’t meant to be a joke at all. This is the most open and happy we’ve ever seen Izzy and the show treated it that way. Not mocking him but instead celebrating this moment.

When we talk about queer representation it’s usually just focused on queer relationships, but what I love about this episode is it shows other sides of being queer. That moment where Izzy saw Wee John doing his makeup and had a realization that he wanted that too? That is what being queer means to me. The crew singing along and cheering for him? That is what being apart of the queer community means to me.

What i love about this show is that it shows queer joy, not in a sanitized way, but in away that is messy, beautiful, and without any mockery or shame.

no but it's the way for aziraphale "nothing lasts forever" meant "i'm willing to give up the bookshop if it means i can be with you safely" and for crowley it meant "nothing lasts forever, not the bookshop, not earth, not us"

i love getting to see day one expac launch bugs such as "eating pizza breaks male au ra faces" and "syrcus tower now has savage level difficulty mechanics"

I have some questions about karaoke night, Alex Hirsch. Very Important Questions. Which I will happily scream at a poor hapless baby triangle who can have no answers for me, and possibly also does not have object permanence yet.

Follow-up that is I guess suggestive, but let's be real here, Bill's a fucking triangle:

Dude slipped right into his birthday suit, lmao

this is so stupid :D

Anyway, I don't care what anyone says, this brilliant individual knows what's up - Bill is absolutely way more of a monsterfucker than Ford could or ever will be, full stop.

the ordeal of being known is in fact mortifying

I think one of the biggest tragedies of Laios & Falin and their relationship is how much his actions impact her life. But like. Specifically how much they WOULDN’T impact her life as much if they weren’t both stuck in such a shitty abusive situation.

This part of the Falin-tries-makeup daydream hour comic is what got me thinking about it again because truly it just... it seems like such a like an offhand comment that I'm sure Laios didn't mean to be cruel or anything. That's just like. A little kid not thinking about what they are saying. ESPECIALLY when the kid in question is Laios.

But man they depended on each other SO much as kids. Too much. It really feels like they didn't have any other source of positive reinforcement, or anyone else to share themselves with. So of course an offhand comment like that has a huge impact on Falin.

Or this little bit from one of the flashbacks:

This tears me apart. Do you think it tears him apart to think about? I think it does. I think Laios holds every small failure to care for Falin against himself.

And then there's the Bigger stuff. The way that him coping with his own trauma ended up impacting her.

Like his interest in monsters. Like him going to find a ghost, and accidentally revealing Falin's magic to the whole village in the process.

Like him needing to leave. And leaving her behind.

He shaped her life so much, and he carries so much guilt for it. And again, there should have been other people there to help. The same things that made Laios need to leave home are the things that made his leaving so hard on Falin. She ate alone after that. She shouldn't have had to eat alone just because Laios wasn't there.

She was 9 when he left for school, and he was 11.

Nine. And Laios feels like he failed her because he didn't stand by her through this better. As an eleven year old.

Both of these kids deserved so much better from the world.

i understand why people hc that post-canon thistle might stay with or near falin assuming that he lives which i am because he does live, leave me alone. faligon caring for thistle and the mother-child imagery, etc. i get it. but i don't see falin actually being ready to take care of a traumatized 1000 year old teenager who would be struggling massively after having all his desires eaten.

there is, however, a character who's up to the task imho

she historically adopts short-lived races, but i think thistle's unique situation would be interesting enough for her to consider it. AND thinking about how thistle's fear of his short-lived family members dying was an issue, i think a caretaker who will die before him is ummmmm, not gonna be great for him.

also, she has some experience with ex-dungeon lords who have had their desires eaten (and if we wanna make this into a mirumisu situation where she asks mithrun's help with figuring out the best way to take care of thistle and then they fall in love? i won't complain)
