hunger is whatever shape the moonlight pulls your shadow into.

The cover and first two pages of a comic about Essek and touch, set just after episode 97 and the reveal of his treachery.

There are nine pages. I will post them in batches as I finish them, and each post will be updated with the links to the other pages. 💜

I've had this idea sketched out for several years (check out my user icon, which hasn't changed since I made this account 😉 ), and I am excited to finally sit down and finish it! Here's a close-up of the Rosohna and Xhorhaus panel on page 2.

An absence is also a presence, no?

Poetry source is ONE SIDE OF AN INTERVIEW WITH THE GHOST OF MARVIN GAYE by Hanif Abdurraqib.

Day 2 of this year's @bumblebybigbang ! I was so lucky to be paired up with the extraordinary writer @lavendermeghan - her work is beautiful and full of tender moments, and I'm just a sucker for college AUs 🥺💕 Working together to make these pieces was such a fun experience, I hope everyone checks out her amazing fic!

there’s something so adorable to me about the way sokka and suki both strive to be more like the other. like, when sokka boasts that he’s the best warrior in his village, both he and the audience know that this is only technically true. whereas suki actually is the greatest warrior in her village, and a great warrior period. and sokka, who of course knows that he is inexperienced and wholly untrained, is eager to learn from her and openly admires her. after all, she’s essentially the very embodiment of everything he always wished he could be, as a warrior and as a leader. and the fact that she doesn’t have to be a man to be a great warrior is even more affirming, because this revelation provides him with the opportunity to transcend the fixed roles he has always pressured himself to conform to.

conversely, suki is inspired to expand her reach and explore the world upon meeting sokka. she had always believed that staying in her village and defending her island would forever be her first priority, but then she sees sokka’s willingness to grow and adapt and expand his perspective beyond the limited paradigms within which he has been inculcated, and his open-mindedness rubs off on her; she decides to travel the world, to expand the possibilities of what she knows and better herself through the growth of learning. had sokka been more stubborn, perhaps suki would have simply remained in her village her entire life, convinced that there is no point in expanding one’s horizons. had suki been less skilled, perhaps sokka would have never changed his mind and found the opportunity for freedom in what lies beyond purely patriarchal dogmas.

suki is an incredible warrior and leader, and so sokka takes the opportunity to learn from her so that he may emulate her. sokka is an incredible scientist who is constantly growing as a person through exploration and discovery, and so suki decides to follow in his footsteps so that she may also reach her full potential. and when they find each other again, sokka is already a far better warrior and leader through her instruction, and suki has already helped far more people than she would have by simply sitting around her isolated village for the rest of her life. and they keep finding each other, and learning from each other, and becoming better people individually through their partnership. they are similar enough to speak the same language fluently and intuitively, but just different enough that their respective virtues synergize in a way that makes them a perfect unit. by providing the other with a model to which they can aspire, they help each other grow.

Hyping up my dog like, no man, I don't know what her problem is. Your play bow was really deep and it made you look so friendly and so fun. If someone approached me with a play bow like that, I would be playing right now for sure.

mixed reactions to nana from the hells

[somethingoriginal127]

super unpopular opinion that i say all the time incoming 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

: i HATE the

“omg why did rick make luke ask annabeth if she loved him”

“omg why did rick write annabeth to have a crush on luke”

“his only mistake was writing-”

discourse

NOOOOO it is absolutely one of the only parts of pjo that is allowed to have actual for real depth instead of treading lightly because it’s for kids it’s one of the SMARTEST PARTS of annabeth’s story he EVER wrote. annabeth having a crush on luke but him treating her like a sister until the MINUTE he needs her to side with him while some other boy (WHO SHE HAS A DEVELOPING CRUSH ON) is swaying her loyalty. OF COURSE he starts preying on/pandering to her crush even though he has never before he is DESPERATE and grappling at anything!!

it’s SO SO SO important to annabeth’s view/development on relationships and love because she has horrible example after horrible example after horrible example she doesn’t know HOW she loves luke or what it means she just knows he’s the only one who’s ever made her feel safe this is exactly. why. she cannot. let. go. and it’s WHY he is almost successful in manipulating her!! it’s just so important and so smart and i’m sorry some people don’t have the media literacy skills to determine why they should never be together, or to determine why anyone would write that storyline but I DO. i just know they’re gonna remove it from the show because of the controversy and the way everyone talks about it online but UGAHH it’s SO important to annabeth’s growth it’ll be such a loss when he undoubtedly cuts it.

i just hate when the general public ruins smart writing because they were uncomfy or weirded out. news flash, so was percy! you were SUPPOSED TO BE😭!

NO ONE GETS IT

you guys are ruining GOOD storytelling and i cry everyday at the loss of context clues/media literacy/common sense/and critical thinking skills.

I do not think evangelizing on the double standard of women being expected to wear makeup everyday to grown women is actually productive or respectful (provided they are not judging me for not wearing makeup), we can all make our own decisions on how to walk through this world, however, it is true that whenever a woman in my daily life equates making themselves decent and presentable with having a coat of natural makeup on, I do have to viscerally repress the urge to shake them by the shoulders and scream that they've been had.

all im saying is that if that pic isn't aziraphale high off of a successful performance, six sheets to the wind because he necked a bottle of wine for dutch courage, and crowley has just walked in on aziraphale to congratulate him,,, well,,, what is honestly the point
