#they've been doing this to me forever

absolutely love when all of my family members start talking about my weight and say that it's not about my looks but rather about my health while almost all of them smoke like a pack of cigarettes a day and eat all of them same shit i do. at least be fucking honest about what's bothering you.

Ever since we met, I haven't stopped thinking of you!

Very cool and not heartbreaking at all for the PJO show to emphasize that Percy is an outsider not only because he's new to the whole demigod thing, but also because he doesn't know the rules of being a traumatized kid with all the daddy/mommy issues possible

I've been debating for a long time on whether to orphan one of my stories. It was the first fic I ever wrote and it's garbage. No beating around the bush, lmao it's not good. I tried justifying orphaning the story because if not, people will see how horrible my writing used to be. But at the same time it shows just how far I have come and will continue to go when it comes to writing.

I've gone back and forth with myself on it and couldn't decide either way. But today I received a message on Instagram asking if they could podfic that story. They told me it was one of their favorite stories and when I tell you that I had a shocked Pikachu face.

Never in my wildest dreams would I think that that story could be someone's favorite. I disliked it so much that I made myself think that my opinion was the only right one. That surely, other people had to hate it too.

I was being my own enemy for no damn reason. I still don't like the story, and I still cringe when I think about it, but I melt inside every time I reread the podfic request message.

I think that this was a reminder that even if it's not verbalized, someone out there likes your story even if you don't. There's someone bookmarking it as I write this. There is someone grinning at their phone, loving every minute that they are wrapped up in the world that you created.

Someone loves the way you write, and the stories you create, you just might not know it yet.

omg rm9 was kinda fun To Me. i enjoyed mulder and scully going on a sushi date, scully being SOOOOO embarrassingly down bad for a man she’s known over 20 years, and of course the restaurant attacking them because mulder is a bad tipper. it’s also just nice to see them living life, you know??

i had a blast with rm9 tbh, a classic s11 well! have no idea what happened there! but i enjoyed myself! episode. just talked about it a bit but yes!! just seeing them living life!! literally the majority of s11 isn't even them going on cases they're just like. existing. and falling into Situations. in rm9 all they wanted to do was go to this sushi place. scully is of course always embarrassing as hell but what i loved loved loved loved about her in rm9 (and consequently throughout s11) is that last moment at the diner when they're both on their phones, and she puts hers away and just kinda leans over to his shoulder and takes his hand, and he puts his phone down.

i was so floored to see her do that, to ask for his attention like that. so much of the original series is scully...almost quietly suffocating, sometimes? being on the edge of his myopia and focus? wanting him to see her so bad, and then lashing out (READ: fucking serial killers) to either rebel, or get him to notice? but it's been a long time and he has been many more things to her since and now she just grabs his hand and makes him turn to her. in forehead sweat when she whines that he needs to feed her or she's leaving!! and then she does leave!!! in plus one when they aren't even "back together" yet, and she sneaks into his motel room and asks him to hold her.

scully in the revival has left him. she has struck out on her own, had her own career, lived on her own, been a doctor. and she's back and they're back because there's work to be done, and because, as james wong says: "She’s in love with him that way. She had a different career as a doctor, but she came back, because this is so important to him—she’s coming back to be there for him."

she's back, and they're back, because they're always choosing each other, and they've proven it, and they've done the work. she complains about his stakeouts. she cracks jokes about being sure he's on his meds!! she knows that their son is "guiding" them both, somehow. she doesn't question it.

she's embarrassingly down bad even after 25 years because she's never anything but adored him, but there's so much more availability now. she can openly check him out and invite him back into her room and giggle at him and sleep on his jacket in bars. she used to cry, every single time that he was present with her. she used to be so overwhelmed that she couldn't speak, when he was focused on her. this is the inverse reaction of the stability and peace that mulder has found, there's a steady foundation for scully to grow on.

I CANNOT BELIEVE the writers wrote the line "i don't want to be alone" for loki and then left him in a tree for eternity

I'm starting to dread (ha) Dreadwolf, partly because Solas is the main antagonist and I have...... Absolutely no feelings about him at all, actually. The best I can summon is a big old "meh". And if they center him (which it seems like they plan to) and make a big deal about whether you want to kill him or redeem him or stop him or join him... Well frankly I just won't care and I'm worried that means I won't have a damn thing to care about in the game's main plot

I'm also worried that his success or failure at taking down the veil will be preordained since that's too big of a plot line to leave up to the player - there just wouldn't be any way to structure future games to account for that player choice. This is obviously a less well founded worry, but it makes it really hard for me to care about the stakes of the game

Idk I'm not trying to shit on people who are excited for this game (I am too, despite the bitching and moaning) but it's really hard to get excited for a game when the one thing you know about it is so completely uninteresting to you

One of my shin soukoku reunion theories (delusions) is Fukuchi telling Akutagawa to attack Atsushi, and he does. He jumps on him, and Atsushi isn't putting up a fight, and Akutagawa's going to bite his neck, and then...! He stops, fangs just inches away from Atsushi's neck, and asks, "Why didn't you fight back?" And Atsushi smiles and responds, "I trust you."

This scenario lives in my head rent free

HOW TO GIVE ME AN HEART ATTACK VIA ASK A GUIDE BY OP

No seriously, your mind, this is amazing and the best concept ever and the perfect scenario and I'm fully ditching canon in favour of this. The Atsushi growth it expresses I'm on the floor screaming!!!! The oh so needed character development, Atsushi truly starting to trust Akutagawa the same way has Akutagawa trusted him!!! Consolidating Atsushi's act of faith of chapter 87 instead of erasing his development! Atsushi's growth in finally letting go of the prejudices he holds against Akutagawa! Them being the perfect team Dazai always knew they would have become. I'm sobbing. Op I trust you to handle the characters more than author themselves

i don't make resolutions, but if i did

it would be to finish this fic

(and to be kind to myself for however long it takes to actually do so)

Designed a dress I want to make heavily inspired by Merida from brave and then I decided to draw it on Merida.

Gonna be going off tumblr for a lil' while, its been having a genuinley negative impact on my mental health which is awesome and while usually I can deal with it it's been worse than usual. I dont wanna make a thing of it I'm just mentioning because I don't want any of my friends on here to be concerned on the off chance I'm gone for a while. Uhh maybe I'll manifest to post art or something? And I'll still be on discord n' my other socials and stuff. Comms will stay open too and the bat blog's queue will continue to run until it runs out and hopefully I'll be back before then. thumbs up !

I was SO unwell about I've Got A Dark Alley last night that my friend had to check up on me. Like it was just playing on repeat for hours and I almost cried. Anyways I feel like tonight will probably destroy all the fobbies super bad. And I'll miss all of you so much. I'll miss the live updates so much as we all watch streams together. Let's all be friends forever? I'm making friendship bracelets as we speak for each and every one of you. This might sound a little silly but I've loved this band for years and I forget sometimes what it's like to be part of a community that also loves them. But I feel like fobblr welcomed me with its arms wide open. It's been so real. Watching these streams with everyone and constantly refreshing my dash has been SUCH a wild experience but I've loved every second of it. I wouldn't trade it for the world. I love you all so much and I never want this tour to end, but tonight is the night. I'm not ready for it. I don't think any of us are.

if anyone has a few spare dollars to help a disabled trans person travel to a doctor for care that's been systematically denied to them (!!) it would help a lot ♡

this situation has become urgent & i have no other way to cover the costs- i'm unable to work & do not receive any assistance with transportation. i really need help in order to access the treatment i need (which at this point is considered life-saving).

☆ my friend helped me set up a donation page bc i don't have reliable access to technology rn ⬆️ (link is above & here)

reblogs also help, tysm !! 🏳️‍⚧️

I just saw this on twitter and immediately jumped to post it on here because this is EXACTLY how I view Watari in relation to the Wammy House project. He does care about orphans, we know that from the fact that he's founded and funded dozens of normal orphanages around the world, but the genius children at Wammy's House are the sacrifices; the ones who are indoctrinated into either seeing justice/competition as their reason d'etre or groomed in a way that'll make them want to live up to Watari's expectations no matter the consequences. It's no surprise that Watari brings all of them directly to Wammy's House when they're at their most traumatized and most malleable; many of them (if not the majority) wouldn't have chosen this way of life/thinking if they hadn't been raised in it and praised for it. That's why they're all willing to die for the cause and why some of them are even willing to kill for it, that's why everyone at Wammy's House is obsessed with either L or Watari, that's why it's been stated that "once a Wammy's kid, they're always going to be a Wammy's kid"
