Pictures of my dolls. @haunteddollshelf - Tumblr Blog

Welcome post.

I’ve been really into my dolls lately, and I want to get back to taking pictures of them. So it’s time for a side blog!

You’ll be seeing my collection of Asian Balljointed Dolls, my Living Dead Dolls, my Disney Nuimos, and probably guest appearances from a Plushie or two.

Also some art reblogged from ScribblingPlace, where I post my art and writing, since occasionally I draw my dolls and write little stories about them.

You can find my non doll related art there if you're interested.

And my personal blog at DarkAnachronism.tumblr.com

I'm Camille, I'm 26, She/Her, some kind of asexual, not quite sure where on that scale I fall given...

A place to store my assorted creative endevours. I follow back and comment from DarkAnachronism...

Entirely forgot to post our folk festival adventure!

The guys at the fish booth remembered us. (Me, my husband, and also the dolls.)

not-wholly-unheroic

I was thinking about how in the final Jake and the Neverland Pirates episode (which isn’t my favorite but has its moments), a kiss from Wendy is what saves both Peter and Hook. There’s this object that turns people/things into stone but every time a person uses it, it starts turning them to stone bit by bit…using dark magic slowly corrupts them. A bit like the ring in Tolkien. But love is what saves them. That further sparked the thought of love as a theme in the original Barrie story and…something occurred to me… I don’t know if there’s much to it but I’d love to hear others weigh in.

In the story The Velveteen Rabbit, there is a theme of love making someone/something “real”… I’m wondering if there is something to that in Peter Pan as well. Loving and being able to accept love from others changes you…but Peter can’t change and so can never be “real.” Wendy loves him but he can’t accept that. He can never be touched, never quite be “real,” always stuck in the in-between. The boys who manage to come back to the real world do so because they can accept the idea of a mother’s love. Arguably, Hook doesn’t really know how to give or accept love at all and so he vanishes entirely from the storyline, with even Peter (who isn’t quite “real” himself) eventually forgetting him. His memory will die with die with Wendy. Tink is a bit tricky because her love for Peter is what kills her. His love for her sort of brings her back, but he can’t do it alone—not without support from real people in the audience…and eventually, in the end, she fades away after her death as well with Peter forgetting her. She never quite reaches “real” status either.

This is honestly me just thinking aloud and not a fully fleshed out concept, but it’s been jostling around in my brain today and I just wanted to put it out there and see if anyone thinks I’m onto something.
