Tldr: I'm about to go on a tangent about the word 'doll'. That's it, that's the post! Feel free to click off now 🤼♂️
Ok now for those who are interested:
Ok.
So in Japanese, 人形 (Ningyō) can be translated as 'doll' or 'puppet'; which I find very interesting
because to me, dolls are made to be loved. The connotation of "made to be controlled" doesn't immediately come to mind when I think of dolls.
Dolls are also most commonly referred to as 'a child's plaything', so I guess in that context the meaning of their relationship can be pretty scathing. Dolls can be proudly put on display as prized objects, but the same thing can be said about puppets. I do think puppets have been put into museums before-- And let's not forget the millions of videos of people blowing up Barbie dolls but I guess I'm not referring to dolls that are being massed produced for consumption lol, at least...not in this context, maybe?
The way my brain is making all these correlations is: Callum looks like a doll. He is also canonically referred to as pretty and maybe he has been called both 'a doll' and 'a puppet'. The double meaning of how this concept can be interpreted intrigues me. It can be as dreadful as a puppet on wire, or as sweet as a doll made to be loved.
cough and if we're bringing the "mass-produced" into this, it might hint that he's not the first and only "doll" but ofc I don't intend their relationship to be this way but it's an interesting thing to think about, regardless.
Although love is another terrifying concept and that in of itself is another tangent holy-
In conclusion: He's master's special, in what way hell if I know. Love is complicated and dolls and puppets are the same but not really. Drink water, hug your mother, ok bye.

I also wanted to caption this something else like how the reflection turns into aaravos so it's technically not "reflected" it's- more like refracted lol or sth?
Or maybe it's a representation of how they're close but really really distant(mentally and biologically) kinda like how humans are finite so it's like--representing the distance between now and eternity?
Ok now I'm finished! Thanks for reading this massive brainrot 🧙♂️✨

Weekend Workshops – Paper Dolls @ Wilton Historical Society
Paper dolls have been a common toy for centuries across the globe. Traditionally, in the United States and Europe, paper dolls have consisted of figures cut out of paper or thin card stock, with clothing fashioned out of paper held onto the dolls with paper folding tabs. Mass production of these dolls began in the early 1800s and continued into the 20th century.
On Saturday, September 10, from…
The Barbie movie reminded me about how when I was little my parents were upset that I kept making my Barbie dolls kiss, so they bought me a Ken doll. The next day they found me having a funeral for poor Ken in the garden, he had died of tuberculosis. All the Barbies were in attendance and I buried him under our rose bush. The Barbies were too poor to afford a headstone (it was 1875) so I didn’t mark where the grave was and I never could find him again. He’s probably still there.
i dont like the idea that kids these days are doing their fandom rps with ai chatbots. that's how you're supposed to make lifelong friends as a weird really online teen.
just thought of a funny post then imagined the annoying asks i'd get about it and got mad and closed the new post editor . then imagined getting to call them a dumb cunt and opened it again. then realized that was insane and started typing this. actually since i'm already in here (post editor) might as well make a fakepost of the entire situation so u all can experience it too

I meant to draw this back when I did this other doll comic as another side, to show a doll that had been cared for instead of abused, but somehow I wasn't able to finish it till like 10 minutes ago, anyway I did it *confetti*
