honestly one of my favorite things about fanfic is when you can see the canon influences come out in really subtle ways. like a canon line thats mentioned once as a throwaway is suddenly the entire premise for a fic or it influences the characterization or something. its just so cool to see how people weave their ideas around a source material, especially if its not a detail i'd thought about before

i think people get so used to their own creative work that they forget how amazing it is so i’m making this post as a reminder You are the only person capable of making art the exact way you make it. nobody else on earth can do that. there are always going to be those little habits and intricacies and details that simply cannot be replicated whether it’s in writing or painting or textiles and you make life all the better for it i love my friends’ art i love art from strangers im trying to love my own art I LOVE YOU!!! THE PERSON READING THIS!!!!!!! YOU ARE A PART OF THIS WORLD NEVER EVER STOP MAKING THINGS THAT CAN IMPACT IT

I’m never gonna get over Loki, the literal god of mischief, fixing his jacket and smoothing out his hair only to stumble over his words like an idiot when he needs to talk to a middle aged single dad who sells jet skis for a living

"That pairing would never be canon" and what of it? I'm only supposed to ship what the church tells me to or something?

Hi sorry can we talk about the use of color in Brokeback Mountain?

In a lot of the scenes where they're apart the color of the movie is desaturated and dull but when Jack and Ennis are together at Brokeback the world is made of deep saturated greens and jewel blues, their entire world is brighter and more colorful when they're together.

And then they leave and go back to their lives and the women wear these pops of color because that's what they are, I don't think that jack and Ennis don't love their wives in the beginning, but they can never be happy with them. The world around them is still colorless and oppressive.

And after 4 years of no contact Jack comes back into Ennis' life wearing red and driving a red pickup truck, literally bringing the color back in to Ennis' life.

Ennis gets in the truck and we go from seeing Alma crying in a dark dull room to beautiful greens and blues of the mountain

The scene before the end when Ennis meets Jack's parents to get his ashes their entire house is white. The floor, the ceiling, the walls, even his parents are pale and washed out. There is no color left in the world without Jack Twist.

But he finds that denim jacket in the back of Jack's closet, it's a brilliant blue, the blood on the sleeves is still red, it still smells like him.

He brings it downstairs and it is so vibrant against the white and he leaves the scene with a piece of Jack with him.

The care and attention that went into portraying what compulsory heterosexuality felt like for these two men down to the color of the movie is so understated and under appreciated. It's such a beautiful movie.

can we also talk about this shot after they say goodbye for the first time, where Ennis looks trapped while coming to the realization that he *is* trapped by his compulsory heterosexuality immediately before it smash cuts to him saying "I do." at his wedding.

The world with Jack in it is vibrant and colorful and the place hes in is dark and grey, and its just right there he can see it but hes just so afraid to take it that he convinces himself he doesn't want it.

the absolute devastating intimacy of a forehead rest. when you are both just so tired from existing in a world that demands you to be a rigid, functional individual, and you finally collapse into each other and just lean your forehead against theirs, or against their shoulder. it’s the physical equivalent of dropping your shields. it’s saying i am entirely heavy right now, and i am trusting you to bear a piece of that weight. and the most beautiful part is that the other person doesn’t even flinch. they just adjust their stance, tuck you a little closer, and absorb the impact. we were designed to divide the burden of being alive.

Jonathan making this 'oh fuck what the hell have I agreed to' face but trying to hide it behind his glass as soon as Roper turns back around will never not be amusing to me

Hi my name is Matthew Ellis Alex Goodwin Andrew Birch Jonathan Pine and I have short NATURALLY blond hair with blonder streaks (NOT BLEACHED) and icy blue eyes like limpid tears and a lot of people tell me I look like Loki (AN: if u don’t know who he is get da hell out of here!). I’m not related to pine trees but I wish I was because I love trees. I’m British but my teeth are straight and white. I have pale white skin. I’m also a spy, and I work for a secret spy club called MI6 in London where I live in a suspiciously expensive flat (that's British for 'apartment'). I’m bisexual (in case you couldn’t tell - I would not blame u for that because I couldn't tell either LMAO) and I wear mostly suspiciously expensive suits. I did not embezzle ten years of interest from 300 million dollars that is not mine and it is rude to ask about that. I also own an omega watch. Today I was wearing a dark blue suit with matching dark blue shirt and a dark blue tie (ppl say I look nice in blue) but not blue shoes because I have big feet and can only get ugly brown shoes in my size. I was at a charity gala to chat up an arms dealer. It was night so there was no sun, which I was very happy about because I prefer to work at night. A lot of preps stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them. But I only did that because it was in-character for my spy alias at the time. I would not have done it otherwise because I am very polite.
