Radioapple Week Day 2: Enemies / Pining

Yet again, I'm quite late but I've had a busy day XD

These drawings were sorta inspired by fanfictions like Of Saints and Sinners, where Lucifer forms an accidental collection of Alastor's things, and Finders Keepers, in which Alastor is a bit of a kleptomaniac (a lot, actually) and collects trinkets from different hotel members, including Lucifer who ends up finding him out. I just love the idea of mementos of your closest people, and in this case specifically the irony of keeping a memento of someone you claim you hate pfff

I think for all of this week's prompts I'll attempt to do both of them, tying them together in some way, one that at least makes sense in my head XD

Day 1

[inkskinned]

they want to talk about mental illness and acceptance and how everyone is a little ocd it's cute and quirky and their "intrusive thoughts" are about cutting their hair off and you say yours are about taking a razorblade to your eye and they say ew can you not and everyone is a little adhd sometimes! except if you're late it's a personality flaw and it's because you are careless and cruel (and someone else with adhd mentions they can be on time, so why can't you?) and it's not an eating disorder if it's girl dinner! it's not mania if it's girl math! what do you mean you blew all of your savings on nonrefundable plane tickets for a plane you didn't even end up taking. what do you mean that you are afraid of eating. get over it. they roll their little lips up into a sneer. can you not, like, trauma dump?

they love it on them they like to wear pieces of your suffering like jewels so that it hangs off their tongue in rapiers. they are allowed to arm-chair diagnose and cherrypick their poisons but you can't ever miss too many showers because that's, like, "fuckken gross?" so anyone mean is a narcissist. so anyone with visual tics is clearly faking it and is so cringe. but they get to scream and hit customer service employees because well, i got overwhelmed.

you keep seeing these posts about how people pleasers are "inherently manipulative" and how it's totally unfair behavior. but you are a people pleaser, you have an ingrained fawn response. in the comments, you have typed and deleted the words just because it is technically true does not make it an empathetic or kind reading of the reaction about one million times. it is technically accurate, after all. you think of catholic guilt, how sometimes you feel bad when doing a good deed because the sense of pride you get from acting kind - that pride is a sin. the word "manipulation" is not without bias or stigma attached to it. many people with the fawn response are direct victims of someone who was malignantly manipulative. calling the victims manipulative too is an unfair and unkind reading of the situation. it would be better and more empathetic to say it is safety-seeking or connection-seeking behavior. yes, it can be toxic. no, in general it is not intended to be toxic. there is no reason to make mentally ill people feel worse for what we undergo.

you type why is everyone so quick to turn on someone showing clear signs of trauma but you already know the fucking answer, so what's the point of bothering. you kind of hate those this is what anxiety looks like! infographics because at this point you're so good at white-knuckling through a severe panic attack that people just think you're stoic. even people who know the situation sometimes comment you just don't seem depressed. and you're not a 9 year old white kid so there's no way you're on the spectrum, you're not obsessed with trains and you were never a good mathematician. okay then.

mental illness is trending. in 2012 tumblr said don't romanticize our symptoms but to be fair tiktok didn't exist yet. there's these series of videos where someone pretends to be "the most boring person on earth" and is just being a normal fucking person, which makes your skin crawl, because that probably means you are boring. your friend reads aloud a profile from tinder - no depressed bitches i fucking hate that mental illness crap. your father says that medication never actually works.

you still haven't told your grandmother that you're in therapy. despite everything (and the fact it's helping): you just don't want her to see you differently.

do any other artists feel like. yeah you're a 'good artist' because you draw things that look nice, but like. TECHNICALLY? you're really not great

i really hate that i can recognise that yes, my art is good, but is it VARIED? is it dynamic?? is my anatomy good? is it full of texture and colour theory? do i know how to do This? can i do That? no, not really. and that's quite painful actually

That feeling of being so tired you get home but just sit in the car scrolling instead of going in.

First it was daddy kink, then it was pet play. Then they gave us time travel and undercover twins. Then came the reincarnated lovers and mythical creatures. Now we also have omegaverse and transmigration to other bodies for a second chance at first love.

So you know they had to fit fuck or die in there somewhere. Glad to see it was from the first uncensored wuxia bl

So, this has been in my head since the ending of todays episode. And I need to get it out so here (do with it what you will):

Honestly growing tired of seeing people add so many caveats and disclaimers when they express that they enjoyed S2. I've seen countless "I know X could have been better," and "I know Y was a bit hit or miss" and "sure, we needed more Z" comments all over the place.

Who the fuck cares. And since when does something need to be absolutely 100% perfect in order to love it?

I loved season 2. It was a beautiful season of television. I got to see my favorite characters in new situations. I laughed, I cried, I gasped, I marveled. It made me think and dream and imagine. It expanded on the story in rich and unexpected ways. It gave me so much new content to chew on, and also made me excited about what still is to come.

Seriously. Just loved it, and I can't wait to do approximately eleventy billion rewatches so I can love it even more.

Poor wally. Genuinely he's taking sleeping pills to sleep no wonder he's so drowsy all the time, HES HAVING TERRORS™️ and literally can't sleep!

He's in a constant state of EEPY!

I can only imagine he conks out sometimes when he's doing his thing during the day or the disassociating is a cause for it...

Although imagine he's just having a day with his neighbors and he just plops his head on the table and sleeps for a bit.

He was walking home and trips, falls....then stays on the ground...he fell asleep half way down.

Tubbo: We should find Richas and make him fix it! Right? You see what I mean?

Fit: Well, I don't think Richarlyson's woken up yet today, so... we might be out of luck on that one.

Tubbo: That's fine, we can wait! Where's his bed?

Fit: ...I don't know where his bed is. Why would you need to know where his bed is?

Tubbo: So we can wait for him.

Fit: You just going to stare at him when he's sleeping?

Tubbo: Yep!

Fit: Isn't that strange?

Tubbo: I don't care!

Fit: Alright, what's gotten into you, Tubbo?

-

Tubbo: Nothing! I just- I feel like this is very unjust. I feel like there's nothing wrong with, you know, correcting injustice.

Fit: I mean, it's- it's a bunch of kids fooling around, do you really want to like... stand in front of an Egg as it sleeps and just...?

Tubbo: Kids have to learn at some point!

Fit: You do- I don't know how Richarlyson's parents would feel about that, Tubbo.

Tubbo: I think they'll be fine.

Fit: No, I don't think you understand, I—
