hater alert! far too many people say that juri’s character arc ‘isn’t about her being sad about being gay, it’s about being sad about unrequited love that happens to be gay’ and. well. that is not true and by saying that you are completely flattening the brilliance of juri’s character arc which literally culminates in her being able to accept her own lesbianism despite her unrequited love, despite all her shame and self-loathing, despite this pursuit by Some Fucking Guy to try and ‘save’ her from these feelings. like if you think juri’s entire character is just ‘sad about shiori’ how do you appreciate even a modicum of the emotion packed into that final juri duel. it is both about shiori and, even broader, her lesbian identity and what that means to her intrinsically as a person, removed from romantic relationships and just purely as like. you know. Who She Is. the idea that even when juri’s locket is cut from her neck she is still a lesbian that’s still who she is and she cant change that and, crucially, she doesn’t want to even as she is agonised by these feelings. that’s why she forfeits the duel!!!! she’s clocking out she’s quitting she’s saying no!!!!!! this is me and ive got to be ok with that this is me and i can accept that this girl might not love me and i can keep living despite that. like. god im so normal arisugawa juri im so sorry that no one understands you and your intrinsically unapologetically lesbian storyline like i do

everyone shut up!! I'm thinking about how Hannibal wants to outdo and put up his middle finger at the Catholic Christian god because he feels that God is playing a cruel and unfair game with his life, and giving him horrible trials he didn't deserve,
and I'm thinking about how he's gay,
and I'm thinking about how I felt when I was 11 and realized I was queer for the first time in the deep south bible belt where I was raised Christian and went to church twice a week.

While we're talking about Shah Rukh, tell me why the FUCK hasn't anyone fully capitalized on that man's exponential queer energy like he's hasn't been putting his entire pussy into making bedroom eyes at his male co-stars since at least 2003 (*sides eyes kal ho na ho*)

no this is fine actually this is so fine. you're so tired. you're so tired. you're given images of a beautiful world, visions of a better future, of things peaceful and idyllic and everything you could have, if you're just willing to- stop. step away. be normal again. if. if. if. (the devil is in the details. the devil is in the details of the moon and- whatever. the devil is in the if). you're tired and you've been fighting with what feels like yourself and the world for so long. theres a beautiful vision, theres beautiful promises, theres a promise of peace, of a sure answer. it sounds so appealing. you're so tired.
(your friends are tired too, you know. he looks at you and his arm is tattoed red and heavy, with grief and with the way he fights so hard to protect you all. He has every reason to regret, everything to hate. He has something on his skin that has such different meanings, now.
He says: no, it didnt taint it, not really. its still them. its still him, and will.
its okay that its different than what he thought. everything about his life is different.
it can mean whatever, the red and the white and the moons. people have been making meaning and crying and weeping under them for ages.
its not tainted. its still his.
she looks at you and says. shes worried about you. that she understands the appeal. she understands considering. but theres more unknown unknowns.
she tells you. you have the choice. thats your superpower, more than the other ones you have. you can make whatever choice you make, and ill support you, you understand? you can have peace without making this trade. you can have peace on your own terms, a quiet life. you can have it. you have that choice. you have it. its yours.)
you are so tired. if you could just be normal- if thats what you want. if it could give you what you want. if.
"Our weirdness makes us right."
"the better halves make a better whole. you have to love all of it."

Its past midnight, but late transsexual thursday joy:
I love being confusing. People don't understand me and that's ok. I love being chaotic and disruptive. I'm tired of playing the people pleaser. I'm free from protecting feelings and expectations of people who only love one version of me.
There's freedom in the chaos of gender queerness. And I am basking in that freedom
It's not too late for me, but exactly. I stopped caring when I actually started liking myself, much less loving where I am now (still a process!)
