#expression is key

if you have a good/ healthy relationship with your mom cherish that, & maybe hug em extra tight for me today. i will forever long for such a bond as nurturing and special as that.

So, I'm still getting the hang of this app's format. I used to be quite active on Tumblr, staying up all night writing Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan fiction. Now, I want to dive back into blogging because I see the potential for more meaningful connections. I'm here to engage with people on various levels and topics.Occasionally, I might post something a bit blasphemous for shock value, just to see if anyone's paying attention. It's challenging to find platforms where you can freely express yourself; Facebook is becoming overly sensitive, and Twitter isn't my thing. On the other hand, I have a blast creating goofy TikTok videos when I'm feeling lively 🔥—seriously, don't knock it until you try it!Giving Tumblr another shot seems like a good idea. They used to be pretty chill about content, but I'm not sure if that's still the case (not that I plan on posting a lot of controversial stuff, just good to know). If anyone has tips for a newbie like me, I'm all ears and welcome constructive criticism and feedback.

honestly wanted to try new brushes and realized how better these are lol…

version without the bubble under the cut

idk how to draw either backgrounds or trains so…. I tried. (also just took different parts of cool trains I saw??)

undertrack by @fivebecomesnone, @ken-tfc and @youregonnahavetime

also code and dionysus are there, but they take like 3 pixels

code sans by @callmeherry (he’s taking a nap to pass the time)

dionysus sans by @javaxzun (yep, he’s drinking wine to pass the time)

(because 3 pixels is not enough for them) (sorry no backgrounds even though i love these two so much aksjjdhddh)

Do you ever look at this?

And see this?

And doesn’t it just make you want to go like this?

Sebek, you know what to do.

No because what is this endless cycle of “I can love them but they can’t love me?”

I know I talked about their self-hatred a bit here.

I know the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree but this is ridiculous??

Always seeing it as a lens of giving to others but not recieving.

Lilia -> hatches Malleus and wakes Silver but runs away from them.

Malleus -> wants to make Lilia proud and helps raise Silver but doesn’t see the happiness his birth brought and calls himself useless in front of Silver who took comfort in him enough to be vulnerable with him.

Silver -> loves Lilia and Malleus but believes he doesn’t deserve that love given his heritage.

Sebek is out here just: 🧍‍♂️ “I’m surrounded by idiots”

It’s just so frustrating?? I know there’s learned habits of love but it’s ridiculous when you have learned habits of sacrifice too.

Because if you are always thinking about love this way, aren’t you diminishing the love given to you?

In return, does that not continue this cycle? That we see? Over and over? Because you are not receiving it as was intended hence the one who gives it to you freely…feels it’s not enough. Will never be enough. So they try harder and feel this self-depreciation because of it.

When that is not true!! It is enough! Always enough!! Ahhhhhh *hugs Sebek* 😭😭😭

(There are many more moments that show this cycle between the three but I chose these moments because they are the most well known and tumblr 10 limit image on the app my beloathed.)
