He had far more interesting dates in mind when came to Mia, far more meaningful ones between the two of them, but when the world held February 14th as such a symbol of love, how could he ignore to show it to her as well? [ Marcel knew, after all, that she liked little celebrations ]. He had left the table saying he would get ready for the day, but came back a couple minutes after, hands behind back, poorly hiding the rectangular large wooden box, and the Artemis terracotta antefix within. She wasn't the simplest woman to pick gifts for. ❛❛ You know I usually get things you can wear, but I thought maybe something for your collections would be better this time. ❜❜ The box was set on the table in front of her, lips formed a grin. ❛❛ <<Happy valentine's day, Minette. >> ❜❜
valentines day ... one of those holiday's that ought to be forgotten instead of celebrated . a hallmark holiday marketed solely for sappy , idiot couples and a reminder to the loner that they are , in fact alone ( showing one's love for another should be shown everyday , not just on a fixed date . ) mia didn't particularly follow valentine's day because she remained single for so long . however she came around to the idea of it slowly even though she expressed her love freely when around marcel . he knew she wasn't that much of a fan but still somehow made it a special day anyway . she figured out eventually that he was more sentimental to things than he let's on . which of course she found endearing , much like the many other qualities about him that makes him uniquely special .
his gifts were always special and they weren't just a pair of earrings or a bracelet . marcel would always go above and beyond with his gifts because he knew she wasn't an ordinary woman . when he walked back into their kitchen with a large box , after he had just left to get ready . she knew she was in for a treat , and boy was she . inside of the box something not only rare but something really meaningful . something that tickled a part of her personality that he knew he should nurture rather than shun . mia's eyes grew wide while the tips of her finger's run over the face of artemis , and a wide smile forms on her lips . " oh you've done good , " she says before her lips part into a grin and she looks up at him . " you've done real good , " she adds before pulling him down by robe and planting a kiss on his lips .

i wish there wasn’t such a stigmatized view on platonically loving people.
I can’t call people nicknames and pet names like hun and honey without them immediately assuming i have romantic interest in them.
i can’t tell my friends i love them without adding on “platonically” or shortening the phrase “ily” “love you” “love u”
i love a lot of people. i love my sister, i love my boyfriend, and i love my best friend. All different versions of love.
let us love people openly and honestly without it being seen as “making a move” or being romantically interested.
please please please stop assuming that love is strictly romantic, i promise you life becomes so much brighter and bigger when you stop keeping love strictly romantic.

H... hello billford people...
If I didn't have commissions to work on, I swear I'd be drawing nothing but these two all day. I'd have a fucking graphic novella by now dksjhjskgh
But these are some doodles I've done while slacking off. I really hope you like them, I've honestly been excited to throw my stuff into the tumblr billford pile (seriously, there are SO many of you making artwork, and you're all so talented?? It's wild. It's like christmas every day.)
So.. I hope you like these! I like to think about Ford when he's all gullible and infatuated with his muse... before he wises up to bills bs.

Saying you’re proud of someone for doin’ their best really can make their day when things get rough for them :D
But yes Husker is getting better, and Angel is just trying his best to cover his overlord duties but sometimes it gets a little overwhelming ;0;
Y’all they’re just too dang cute I can’t 😭🩷

I love dunmeshi for the like.. built in horror of consumption. Like they eat to survive, they eat to honor their prey, they eat to possibly mourn someone. Laios eats monsters because he wants to learn more about the things he loves, Senshi eats monsters to feel included in the ecosystem because he didn't fit in with the outside and with most creatures in general, Chilchuck DOESN'T eat as much as he could because eating too much could kill all the party members, Marcille eats monsters and hates it but she still does it because she'll die before she could save Falin.

listen there really was just something about how in the book, snow’s 3-page descent from hesitant lover boy to deluded mfer happens entirely in his mind. lucy gray gives him no indication whatsoever that she suspects him, that she’s going to leave or betray him. he’s just sitting quietly in the cabin waiting for her to return when that seed of calculated suspicion, which he has needed to survive the capitol, takes a hold of him and chokes the life out of any goodness left inside him. it really drives home your terror as a reader that “oh my god did he kill her? did she escape? what happened to her? why would he even think that?” in a way that when the movie had to adjust for visualization it lost some of that holy shit this guy has lost it emphasis.

I hadn’t drawn the house of hades boys in years! Curse me! This isn’t exactly a remake of an old painting but it’s in the vibe of how I used to draw them all the time. Poetic and stealing kisses
