The duality of "If you even imply that being aro or ace condemns someone to a sad and lonely life I will fucking fight you"

and

"being aro and ace is the most isolating thing I will ever experience"

New hyperfixation?

I spent. So many days on this. Reworking, recolouring re shading, I despise drawing real people with a passion, I never think they look good. But here’s what I was finally satisfied with 🙏 my two favourite boys. The Holmes brothers 💙

#WOW!#young sherlock #sherlock holmes #mycroft holmes #young sherlock fanart

Every time any of the dbda cast post something on Instagram, I think about dbdtwt and how happy this will make them. I’m 99% glad to no longer be on the bird app but these are the 1% moments when I really really miss it. Sending lots of love to everyone on over there 💙❤️

#George’s new post even includes a raffy photo and I just know that dbdtwt is having a field day :))#dbda #dead boy detectives #George rexstrew #dbda fandom

every time I see a pic of Dónal I haven’t seen I think to myself ‘what the fuck’ because he’s just too gorgeous and perfect and pookieful

(Dónal rehearsing for Albion 2020, photos by Marc Brenner)

Mr Hayward, if you had asked me what I wanted, I would have told you I never wanted Mr Ryder. I have never loved Mr Ryder. I love you. I have only ever loved you.

#yeah I am also obsessed with how his mouth starts twitching upwards when he hears that Mary does not love mr ryder #you can see the hope manifesting in real time #tom hayward #yearner of the century #tobs #the other bennet sister

I've been listening to the PHM soundtrack on repeat these last few months, and I love all the songs (for example, Centrifuge is a bop and no-one can tell me otherwise), but Grace Go Home exists on its own level of genius I think. and yes, I will elaborate.

the music sets in at the exact moment Rocky asks "so, Grace die, question" and at the start it's these lonely double heartbeats with no anchor and so much near-silence in between that they just float through empty space (pun intended). the change starts as soon as Rocky says "Rocky watch crew die. Could not fix. Grace say Grace will die. Rocky fix", and slowly but surely the heartbeats become steady and solid, from then on consistently underpinning the music. and the strings set in and suddenly there is substance to the music again. And then when Rocky says "Grace go home" the choir starts, human voices in the music that literally call grace home to his own planet, which is so freaking powerful. The music then softens when Grace goes into the hug, and when Rocky thumps against the glass in reply, it's like the choir exhales one final time as if in relief.

And I'm sure someone with more musical knowledge will know whether the chords switch from minor to major or something like that, but I don't know enough music maths to provide that side of the analysis. I just think the piece is a masterclass of how a scene and its music can be intertwined and work together. You can feel it, even when you can't understand it yet. And I think that's beautiful.

#see this is exactly what I meant #it just works in the scene but once you unpack it there are so many layers of genius to this song #phm #project Hail Mary

I'm making so many hadestown gifsets and my heart is full - I've literally been wanting to make them for over a year and now I feel like my soul is finally at peace with the world.
