Sun analysis !!
had some thoughts after i read this tsams confessions post about Sun and how it doesn't feel like he has bonded with his family outside of Moon. you should probably read that first bc i'll be quoting it.
so here's a bit of a (completely lowercase) rant on some of the (in-universe) reasons why i think that might be
'-seeing your entire family grieving over someone [solar] who didn't really give the same amount of love to you as they did to them'
yet sun still acted extremely upset after solar died, which is understandable, but i think has deeper meaning than just 'oh he's sad because he was close to solar (he wasn't) and then watched him die'
it could be an extension of the grieving he never got to do after old moon and lunar died
acting more distraught than he really is makes him fit in more with the rest of his family, who all were close to solar and are deeply affected
he did watch solar die so, that does contribute
not to say he wasn't upset about solar dying! or shouldn't be! it's just that he didn't really...know solar. or talk to him. they never once connected. so why would he be as upset as he is?
'How Sun just leaves, and Lunar, Earth, and Monty go off to grieve without him.'
i think this comes from how him and old moon never talked about their problems. if they felt bad, they had to suck it up and deal with it alone-- after all, you wouldn't want to burden your already stressed out brother with your insignificant problems!
sun and old moon followed that pattern for long enough that it's nature to sun now: he can't be emotional around his siblings, he's not supposed to. it's why he leaves once earth and lunar are going off to properly grief.
'When he speaks to them, he doesn't know what to say or how to respond most of the time. It sometimes sounds like he is talking to a complete stranger.'
sun and old moon were tremendously codependent. they were so close. concerningly so. sometimes, it felt as if they had zero connections outside of each other:
they spent the first years of their life in the same body, together 24/7. after that, they still live and work in the same place, once again being together 24/7. at the start of the show, it seems as if moon doesn't talk to anyone outside of sun, and that sun rarely talked to anyone else; monty and roxy, sure, but they're relationships with sun weren't great, either.
even once lunar rolled around, sun and old moon only believed they could truly trust each other. they were each other's purpose.
sun will never have that amount of a bond, or those intimate of experiences, with anyone else. sun only talked to old moon for so. long. how can he learn to talk to anyone else, if they're not him?
'-said he’s in the best mental state he’s been in a while, but sitting alone in your house just seems extremely lonely.'
old moon would get annoyed with sun easily. sun was anxious and felt the need to check up on moon a lot, make sure he wasn't doing anything that hurt him-- but moon never liked it. he got snappish.
sun and old moon's conversations went better when old moon initiated them.
sun is too afraid to try initiating affection with his siblings anymore. after all, what if they get annoyed? they have real things they're dealing with, what if he's just bothering them? not just with his problems, but with wanting to talk at all?
why even try if it'll probably end up bad anyway?
(BY THE WAY THIS IS JUST MY INTERPRETATION. NOT TRYING TO SAY ITS CANON OR ANYTHING.)

This came up on my release radar recently and all I can think when I hear it is Daryl after losing Beth, Daryl after losing Glenn, post-Sanctuary PTSD Daryl, blaming himself for Rick’s death 💔
You don't want my love
I'll let you down because
I've tied me up like a dog on a cable
I've kept me caged
A wild horse in a stable
I'm okay 'til I'm not
I'm okay when I'm not
Keep the wolf from the cattle
Hold me for I am fragile
I get so pretty for you

//Sonic IDW issue #53 SPOILERS
OH NO OH NO ON NONONOOOO
So Kit FINALLY got on the right side but Sonic just COULDNT listen to Tails ONCE AGAIN and HAD to tell Kit that Surge is dead. And OF COURSE Kit had to escape Belle to join the fight so he could help.
But what will our poor boy see? That Surge is alive! And what will his first thought naturally be? THAT SONIC LIED TO HIM!!
So OF FUCKING COURSE Kit will join Surge again and think that Sonic is a mf liar. But i cant really blame him, everyone would see that as a try for manipulation without proper explanation, and i doubt that Kit would listen to anything Sonic has to say in that moment lol.
So lets just pray that it will end well.
(Of course it will at the end, but who knows when will we get the happy ending).

I'm not Vader expert anon but I so know that Vader hardly sleeps. Like he goes days to weeks without really sleeping because he can't sleep in a normal bed because of the suit (mainly the helmet), and he doesn't always have the luxury of time to be in the bacta. Most if bot all of his sleep would be in the bacta tank.
MY BELOVED YOU ARE SO WISE
When you think about it though that makes the most sense. Like the suit is already uncomfortable as it is but trynna lay down in it? And fall asleep?? Thats gotta be like nearly impossible. And he's a very very busy man whos nearly almost always on his guard, so even if he tried to sleep in the bacta tank it would only be for a few hours at MOST
Id like to think he sees napping/sleep as more of a luxury now than anything
