xie lian took 2 days to heal after his stab wound on beizi hill
he tooks several months to recover after the temple scene with white no-face
he took a year+ to heal after being trampled in banyue
the quick pace of healing after the temple scene makes me headcanon that he didn't give himself enough time to do it properly, meaning he was in a lot of physical as well as mental pain during the no-face arc.
to quote my bestie and pulitzer prize winner tony kushner “hope isn’t a choice, it’s a moral obligation, an obligation to the cells in your body” and “it is an ethical obligation to look for hope; it is an obligation not to despair.” like god. it is so fucking hard it is harder than anything in the world to wake up and have faith that things will be better and we can change things but it is the only thing we tangibly have and can pass on to other people. idrk where i was going with this but yea
profs will set the due date for the final as april 24 and then STILL NOT HAVE THE FUCKING ASSIGNMENT UP TO SUBMIT THE PAPER BY 11PM ON APRIL TWENTY FUCKING THIRD
St. Michael and St. Joan of Arc discuss those incorrigible English!
___
JOKE-OGRAPHY:
1. St. Joan claimed to have visions from heaven which featured three saints, one of whom was St. Michael. In this cartoon, she gets to hang out with him all the time 'cause they're in heaven together.
2. There are many revisions of St. Joan's story in media, but for this cartoon, St. Michael is referencing a specific play that's running in London this month. To appeal to modern audiences, the play portrays Joan as "genderqueer" and vaguely spiritual, rather than the obsessively Catholic girl we know from historical testimonies. Such reinterpretations of Joan are nothing new, however. In fact, the first recorded reinterpretation accusing Joan of being an antireligious antiwoman was in 1431, and that show was ALSO put on by the English. History really does rhyme.
3. At the end of her trial, the English-aligned Catholics excommunicated Joan, abandoning her to secular authorities they knew would burn her on the spot. However, that didn't stop the French from ultimately defeating the English thanks in part to her inspiration.
4. St. Michael lightheartedly refers to the play as a "theater of war". "Theater" in this sense can either mean "a place where plays are performed" or "an area of activity in a war", so it's a pun. He's saying that the English are using the play in a figurative war against Joan's legacy.
Vs. DJ Subatomic Supernova Heaven Studio Mix (v 0.1)
So, I remade my original Vs. DJSS mix in Heaven Studio. Actually, I've been sitting on this for a while, but tumblr just didn't want to upload the video for whatever reason.
Since HS doesn't have every game from this mix in it yet, I had to do some substitutions. Of note, Sick Beats was replaced mostly by Fireworks and Launch Party and I had to change the last game, but the original "joke" is still intact.
I didn't do too much with the visuals (except the very last part), and the skill star is messed up, so I'm not going to release the playable version until I get all that fixed. I'd really like there to be some cleaner transitions between games, and maybe even do some custom graphics. We'll see if either happens.
Okay I legitimately need to break from watching OP for a bit because A. I’ve been binging nonstop and I need to actually like. Be a human person and do something else other than sitting and watching TV for 6 hours straight And B. I’m at Sabaody now and I’m fucking SCARED man. Things are so fun and lighthearted rn and I know it’s all going to shit soon and my heart isn’t READY for that yet,,
I guess I will elaborate on everything later but, FUCK.
Did you see this? How Porsche enjoys knowing the power he has over Kinn. They are so drunk on pleasure, they are so high on each other. I really can't, they are just so overwhelmingly beautiful together. It feels like an out of body experience, IT'S SO AMAZING, the touches, the look on their faces, their moans, the way they interact. It keeps delivering greatness!
You're walking home, or to work or school, or wherever- and you get caught in the rain. It starts to downpour. Like, big fat droplets of Gaia tears; Thick 'my son-husband has secretly hidden children within me causing a terrible migraine so welp; here baby Cronus, take this flint sickle and castrate brother-daddy' kinda rain. I'll stop with the Greek Mythology now, I'm sure you get it. Heavy rain.
You're getting soaked despite whatever you're using to protect your skin from it all (A binder, a bag, your jacket, a hat,.. an umbrella perhaps), your nose is cold, and you can barely see 10 feet in front of you apart from any street lights around, when-
A car pulls up directly next to you. You have the horrible panicked moment of 'am i going to be kidnapped today', before you recognise the car and the side door is thrown open in front of you.
Your F/O gestures and/or calls for you to get in. They knew you would be out at this time (They're familiar with your basic schedule ^^), saw the downpour and thought immediately 'Oh shit wait, Y/N's out in this'- and came right over to get you out of it.
What's their car like? Is it sleek and well taken car of? Is it a regular old thing? Does it look like its gonna break down any time now?
Do they have a blanket for you to throw over your legs? Or do they throw you their coat??~~~
Do they enforce seat belts? Are they gonna refuse to go if you just pull the blanket over your shoulders and 'forget' (Or genuinely forget) to buckle up or will they lean over and buckle you themselves?
Are they taking you to your destination or are they taking you to their house because you need a hot shower and to get warm or you're gonna catch a cold? Are they kind about it or bossy? XD
Will they stop by a drive thru to get you something to eat and/or drink? Maybe something lovely and hot?? Or are you two the crazy people who eat ice cream when its cold 'cuz it wont melt'?
Possibly most importantly; Is their any chance that your F/O would kick you back out into the rain for any reason? XD
