ok hi......

[flowerakatsuka]

i'm painted in colors here and there and you, too, are painted in colors everywhere

i'd like to personally thank @brofightiscancelled & @awittlebabbyboy for giving us the most glorious yanaichi feast they've been giving us with their postgrad plan au, ( also for just giving us the au in general, it's so freaking interesting and i love so much about it oh my god?? )

anyways, fellas, is it gay to happily wear the color you associate with your totally platonic roommate?

it’s always a good time to lie awake in bed late at night and think about the fantasy lore in your head. you will surely not regret staying up til ungodly hours thinking about the fantasy lore in your head. things you have to do tomorrow are temporary made up fictional details are forever

kinda thinking about how the women who serve as maternal figures/raise kids in yyh are never quite ready for it. genkai's an arguable exception, but like.. atsuko had yusuke at 15, shizuru's basically in charge of kazuma full time in her early 20s/late teens (depending on version) with very very absent parents, and even shiori is given a kid she wasn't expecting, in the form of an old, old demon rather than like. a regular, blank slate ass human baby. and although shiori seems to do quite well with kurama, kurama can never be honest with shiori about who he is, or much of what he's seen. if he was, it'd probably make things far more complicated and overwhelming. atsuko, no matter how much she cares for yusuke, Could Not Have Been and thus wasn't ready to have him at 15. her attempts to make the most of that situation have had middling success at best. shizuru has also been placed into a parental role. we don't really know how long she's been raising kuwabara, but that's.. probably still parentification anyway. she shouldn't have to do that, and she shouldn't have to do that so young. and i think some of her coarseness with kuwa is out of frustration with her own inexperience + inadequacy + uncertainty, his not cooperating, and their parents for putting this on her in the first place. the ones who know the full extent of their situation grow desperate and it squeaks out in unpleasant ways, and the one who seems unbothered by it is the only one who has no idea that she's in way over her head. and i mean. ok. gonna preface this by saying keiko is NOT yusuke's mom in any sense of the word. but she does take care of him in a way atsuko couldn't manage to. she's often looking after him and cleaning up after his messes and stuff. she takes him on as a responsibility, and that is, in a way, a caretaker role. not to say that it SHOULD be her responsibility, but it's how she ends up being.

and when the stress of trying to make someone take care of themselves or be kind or good or Whatever goes awry, again, the violence and arguing and distance and ugliness of caring for someone reveals itself.

and i wonder about that. for a series dedicated to physical fighting as a form of communication, what does it say that this extends to the complicated, quietly desperate situations of so many of the women/girls it depicts, whom our more central characters were shaped and raised by?

hell, even hiei touches on this, because hina loved hiei, but there was no way she was prepared for him, obviously, nor for the pain of losing him. rui (whom i also see as a sort of caretaker figure to hiei, inasmuch as either of them were caretakers) literally throws him off a cliff because she couldn't face down the village elders, and out of some mixture of care for hina and, likely, fear for her own survival. and the guilt and pain of that killed hina and deeply wounded rui.

it's like motherhood, this thing that's so often treated as sacred and beautiful, is a kind of stitched up, painful, eggshell-walking thing that hurts parent and child and it's just. oughh

have you ever taken an edible that makes you draw a fursona for the cookie thats the absolute least likely to have a fursona (or know what a fursona is). have you also ever been completely unable to sleep to the point where you lose your shit and whip out your art tablet and draw the wackiest shit ever while blasting gay furry breakcore at 4am. have you ever had this much power

I was surprised why you were angry when I asked about the review because there was nothing wrong with it before I searched and found out I got the channel name wrong

The one I was looking for was Michael The Cinemafile's review. It's 100 percent positive and I'm comparing the benefits of Hazbin Hotel to Wish so I thought I'd ask because I remember you saying you jumped on the Wish hate train and I was curious if you knew it

OHHHHH! IVE WATCHED THAT ONE! It's really good at breaking down how Hazbin clearly outshines Wish as a musical. And Hazbin definitely does do villain songs way better than whatever was going on with Disney. For anyone curious, here's the video:

And when I mean Disney...I mean Disney. I'm not gonna blame the creators of Wish completely bc Disney pressured them to work faster. Although, they still hired a pop songwriter to create songs for a musical, which was certainly.....a choice.

Also, I'm extra salty at Wish for making ppl get mad LMM, as if he had anything to do with this x3 Like, if Lin worked on Wish, you would know that the songs would be decent. They tried to copy his work but then forgot to add the passion that goes with it.
