wait ok one thing i learned from my singing teacher that may or may not be relevant to other people with mountains of self-doubt and anxiety like i have. is that just because something is easy to do doesn't mean it's bad

also, you don't have to push yourself out of your comfort zone constantly. you have to find your limits first and make sure you're comfortable there - find out what your comfort zone even IS - and only then try to step out. if you're in constant survival mode while trying something new or while being creative, you will just associate these things with having a bad time, so what's the point?

we live in a culture that really encourages pushing yourself and constantly getting better, but you can't grow without roots, and you can't run with no legs to stand on. you need to have a sturdy base of confidence and joy to start from and go back to as needed

sometimes trying hard can be to your detriment. it's okay to do easy things for a bit. it might be your best work yet, even if just because you simply felt better doing it. and i think you're gonna be surprised by what you can achieve when you do something just because you like it, with no real goal in mind

reblog with your ranking of the eight cliffhangers from “not bad, actually” to “shannon, i’ll be banging on your door by sunrise”. this is. for science.

(side note: this is a ranking of the cliffhangers themselves, not how they were resolved or continued in the next book. so if a cliffhanger really hit you hard but then you found the way it was resolved in the next book to be underwhelming, that’s irrelevant. it would still be more toward the “shannon, i’ll be banging on your door by sunrise” side, and vice versa.)

mine is:

(not bad, actually)

“Sophie Elizabeth Foster is unmatchable.” (Flashback)

“I’m going to be hiding the same way the Black Swan hid you. [ . . . ] Love, Keefe.” (Unlocked)

“‘Sophie?’” (Lodestar)

“‘As of this morning, Prentice is awake.’” (Neverseen)

“‘Let’s go join the Black Swan!’” (Everblaze)

“‘Who’s Alvar?’” (Nightfall)

“‘You’re saying stellarlune is a Forgotten Secret.’ [ . . . ] ‘Bring it on.’” (Legacy)

“‘My name is Elysian,' she said. 'And I am the power source you’re all here looking for.’” (Stellarlune)

(shannon, i’ll be banging on your door by sunrise)

having terminal narwhal brainrot is kinda the worst actually bc. sometimes my brain just gets Stuck on all these tiny things and observations that are Very Funny Indeed but also like. i have no actual clue whether its Intended to be significant at all in terms of implication or if im just losing it but its rent free either way and its not going away like. take this one for a completely coincidental example i definitely havent had swirling around my head rent free for like the last 3 weeks nopers no way uhhhhh

so act I of fontaine AQ right???? first narwhal mentions we get from childe in the story???

"it" right?? which like fine yeah makes sense. mysterious massive eldritch sea creature wouldnt consider that out of place for a choice of pronoun. in no small part prolly due to ajax just taking after skirk in terms of how she refers to and views the narwhal. its not rly carrying any connotation of personhood and/or sentience purely in terms of the language used

Now. if its such an unsurprising choice. why am i fixated on this

WELL. lets say purely hypothetically. wouldnt it be like. really funny if after Multiple languages. explicitly went for a non-human moniker when it comes to childe speaking about the narwhal. that he would then like. possibly. the Second they make actual direct and personal telepathic connection with one another. pull a complete 180 on that. in like act III mayhaps

"someone" calling him??????

Like. isnt it Interesting. that he went from "it". to IMMEDIATELY assigning explicit personhood to whatever originated that whalesong call.

Its telepathic connection. Right??? like these mfs are Literally in each others heads. right??? and yet. Somehow. PURELY off of that call that single moment of fleeting impression and feeling that gravitational pull towards one another. youre Instinctively assigning sentience personhood and character to that voice. Huh

(so based and narwhalpilled ajax i knew you were a truther and an ally)

and like what makes me fixate on this so much and not just go oh its prolly nothing is just. they didnt HAVE to write it that way right??? they couldve made it "something calling me..." . or even for intentional ambiguity something like "i hear a call somewhere..." . but Nooooooo its. someone. they made ajax go from "it" to "someone". in the exact span it took for him to make direct metaphysical contact with his narwhal.

obviously like. yes ive made my case against the "lmao dumb pet that overeats" misconception Many Times Before for obvious reasons bc thats My beloved and theres Plenty enough canon material even excluding this one to very much suggest the narwhal is indeed a fully sentient immortal being capable of complex thought i just. for ajax of all people to seemingly note that so instinctively the moment they make contact as well............

yeah let me scream real quick thanks im just. HHHHHHHHHH these 2 kill me irl

and NO its not just english i triple checked. like first i checked german and that shit goes from es/etwas to jemand. non-human to explicitly person-specific

(beyond the obvious. whale as a masculine noun)

& then w chinese obviously not a speaker but i took the same lines from project ambr, got the translation and pinyin with google and as long as im not missing sth huge and/or wikipedia isnt lying about how chinese pronouns work. its explicitly non-human 3rd person to very much person-specific interrogative "who" too.

so like. that sure is a very specific and curious choice to make with the writing. multiple times. in multiple languages. when there very much were Multiple very easy ways to write it Not in such a way. for the one (1) guy with undeniably the closest and most personal bond to the narwhal. to say That. in response to its call. its just a little bit of an inch resting detail to have. just a bit

yeah ajax mister im actually going to need you to explain this one to the class as well in addition to all the OTHER shit you have the audacity to spew thanks

"OHHHH! OHHH!! ME ME ME! BINGO! HAHAHAHAHA!!! WHAT DID I WIN?"

huh. the only sounds in the room that barton was currently in were... anguished cries? maybe he was watching something, perhaps, with an actor currently on screen who was upset? oh no — wait, that was barton.

❝ you're lying... she's got to be lying about at least some of these, ❞ barton felt like he was watching interstellar all over again: like a complete mess, reduced to ugly crying whenever that certain scene came up (if you know, you know. it's the one with murph's message.) ❝ there's just no way i would be compatible with a child-killer. god, please stop giving me your toughest battles, because i am NOT one of your strongest soldiers, ❞ he was so devastated, barton was even beginning to recite something from meme culture without even realizing it. poor guy. suddenly, footsteps could be heard in the room and they revealed themselves to be belonging to matilda, who took one look at him and was very confused. but then she looked at the bingo card on the computer and it explained everything.

matilda let out a loud ' oof ' and cringed before crouching down beside her father, awkwardly patting his shoulder. ❝ hey... it's alright. it's just a card, nothing to get upset over, ❞ his daughter was about to help him up until he said, ❝ joker — she put a mark over that she doesn't hate the mask. ❞ matilda looked like she was in physical pain, now, with how much she was cringing. ❝ oh. yeah, nevermind. it is that bad. ❞ she pulled barton up and into a hug. he honestly felt like his soul had escaped his body when he saw how many bingos she'd gotten. matilda started patting his back, now, ❝ i am not going on a date with her... ever. i would rather die. ❞ she let out a soft huff, secretly rolling her eyes a bit. he was being kind of a drama queen about this, wasn't he? ❝ alright. whatever you say, dad. ❞

despite the current state of things, good things have in fact happened. if they’ve happened in the past, they can and they will happen again.

i have shared almost nothing in relation to my headcanon linebeck backstory or any of the ocs involved in that but i will share that when he was young he met a pair of pirate captains who taught him how to sail and raised him more than his actual parents did

[lunarcry]

something something i wanna see natsume wonderhoy something something how i dont think im gonna give akira any ~magic~ or even sensitivity to supernatural stuff in postmhyk settings (i do like the idea of faint magic being On them due to those bonds however but thats mostly a For Myself thing anyway), BUT...akira is a lot more...hopeful(/accepting/etc) toward magic existing after everyone theyve met. guy whos reactions goes from "?!?!?!?!" to "magic...?" even when its clearly Not magic. "almost like magic" words said with such honesty it sounds childish but there's a touch of longing in there. if that doesnt make sense just know it does for my selfindulgence. tldr i think natsume & akira would be funny
