#thirteen months a year

[iwritenarrativesandstuff]

Feel like making people miserable today. Anyways, here's Gon experiencing like. Textbook symptoms of trauma in the CAA, in case there was any lingering doubt about this or anything:

Initial denial that the experience happened or was traumatic

[ID: A screenshot from episode 85 of HxH 2011. Gon, eyes bright and with a smile, says "Kite is alive!" End ID.]

Flashbacks

[ID: Two screenshots from episode 95, and a third from episode 110. In the first, Kite's arm is shown in the foreground, bleeding and blurred. In the second, a close of Pitou's wide eyes, looking animalistic. In the last, puppet Kite's mangled and scarred face stares emptily ahead - the scene is greyed out. End ID.]

Intense distress at real or symbolic reminders of the trauma

[ID: Two screenshots from episode 116. In the first, Gon's fist can be seen in the foreground, with Pitou shielding an unconscious Komugi just barely seen. The narrator says "The girl lying before them brought back". In the second, Komugi has a medical respirator on. The narrator continues "images of a broken Kite to Gon's mind". End ID.]

Physical sensations such as pain, sweating, nausea or trembling

[ID: A screenshot from episode 116. Gon's fists slam into the ground as he says "That isn't fair...". Sweat drips down his arms. End ID.]

Extreme alertness/hypervigilance

[ID: A screenshot from episode 116. Part of Pitou can be seen in the foreground as Gon stares at them intensely, crouched on the ground with his arm resting on his knee, obscuring his lower face. End ID.]

Angry outbursts or other extreme behaviour

[ID: Two screenshots, one from episode 116, and the other from episode 127. In the first, Gon shouts "Is something wrong with you?!" as his face contorts with rage. His aura floats black around him. In the second, Gon, his face shadowed eerily with thin lines, says "The next time you try to delay me, I'll kill her." End ID.]

Feeling like you have to keep busy

[ID: A screenshot from episode 94. A close up of Gon's face from the side as he says "I want to focus on my training." End ID.]

Doing things that are reckless and self-destructive

[ID: Three screenshots, one from episode 95 and the other two from episode 131. The first is stylized as a black outline of Gon's figure over a background like parchment or a projector - he's been hit in the face and sent to the right from the force of the blow. The second is a close up of Gon's face, almost completely shadowed, with intense and vacant eyes - he says "I don't care". The third continues with a close up of his eye filling with darkness - "if this is the end..." End ID.]

Feeling like nobody understands ("since it means nothing to you")

[ID: A screenshot from episode 116. In a whitish-room with a crack on the wall between them, Gon stands ahead of Killua, facing away from him. They are both in shadow. End ID.]

Ignoring offers of help and shutting out loved ones... poor Killua :(

[ID: A screenshot from episode 136. A spotlight on both Killua, in the foreground, and Gon, walking away from him in the background. Killua thinks "I wanted you to ask for my help in defeating Pitou!" End ID.]

Self-loathing, self-punishment, and lack of self regard

[ID: Three screenshots, two from episode 110 and the third from episode 131. The first is a close up of Gon's face over Morel asking "When would you try to hurt yourself?" The second is a continuation. Morel looks down at Gon who is facing away from the camera as Gon replies "When I couldn't forgive myself." In the last, adult Gon, staring ahead, is animated in black and white with the only colour being the blood from the stump of his right arm. His left hand grips his shoulder. End ID.]

Blaming yourself for what happened

[ID: Two screenshots, one from episode 95 and the other from episode 130. In the first, Gon hugs puppet Kite around his waist. In the second, Gon stares blankly ahead with tears streaming down his face as he thinks "I killed Kite." End ID.]

Overwhelming feelings of anger, sadness, guilt, and shame

it is unendingly funny to me that the very first words the average person will read about this series (besides the title, keeper of the lost cities) are incorrect

youtube stop recommending me that five hour long “fall of doctor who” video challenge. there is not a video i could be less interested in watching.

i hear you requested mgv asks?

i have a mgv ask.

how does mgv impact House's ducklings and their relationships with each other and him. like. we've established that thirteen and chase are his children. but how does that develop? does having house like them strain their relationships with the other ducklings? do they have a movie-nights-and-hugs kinda relationship with house or a maybe-slightly-less-cruel-to-you kinda relationship?

-🎸

the only ducklings to get jealous is cameron (she initially misinterprets house and chase's interactions due to her momentary crush on house, but after she figures out theyre purely familial she thinks it's kinda cute) and kutner (he has fomo)

otherwise foreman and taub think it's weird and foreman will tease chase and thirteen sometimes for it but other than that nobody else really cares and it doesnt affect inter-duckling relations very much.

and no they do not have movie night cuddle parties 😭 house is still a grouch to them bc they are still his underlings, now it's just interspersed with random infrequent niceties, like house praising chase on a tricky surgery, or house showing interest in thirteen's personal life genuinely. he's not incredibly outwardly affectionate as that just his nature and hasn't exactly had a great paternal role model himself but he tries

Pride day 20!

After a few too many dangerous adventures in a row 13 decides to take yaz to the biggest water park in the universe (or smth)

Surprisingly nothing bad happens and they actually have a good time. The doctor is obsessed with the big water slides while yaz likes the lazy river

13 insists they get matching souvenirs

Yaz lowkey is gay panicking the entire time over 13 in a swimsuit

if 13-14 year old newbie writer me knew I preferred to write either established relationships or relationships where they were broken up for a loooong period of time before they reunited, I feel like he'd either glare at me, hit me over the head with the nearest frying pan or ask me what the fuck happened.

Panini have published a new anthology collecting all the Fourth Doctor comic strips from DWM, no doubt because the The Star Beast has been adapted.

Even though this is an obvious 60th cash in, I do hope we get more anthologies like this as many of the previous collections are now out of print. Not sure how they'll do the Fifth Doctor though since there aren't really enough stories to fill an anthology. Might be best to bundle them with the Sixth Doctor stories and release one bumper volume.

I sincerely wonder if I'll ever stop feeling like an awkward kid.

shoutout to me when i was like eight years old setting my neopets birthdate to some random day in 1989 so it could be a pain in the ass every single time i randomly decided to log in again for the rest of eternity

Happy new year my dudes!!! May 2024 be so much fucking better than whatever the hell 2023 was!

[theinfinitedivides]

random thing to post over here especially since i've like. never mentioned it ever but why is it every time i see an rp that looks interesting enough to make me dust off my old skills and dip my toe back in the water after six? seven years? it's always some sh*t like 'discord exclusive' or '21+' or 'invite only' exactly what is going on in the community these days

[redrosecut]

I don't know what it is about Doctor Who but I either binge it like crazy or I need forever to get through a series.
