MISSING: female, mid 20's, blonde hair, blue eye, facial scarring. last seen: losing herself at the bottom of an ocean of blood.

intro post.

member of @thepluckycharms — all stances held there are held here. I am an adult but we are bodily 17, act accordingly.

source connected introject of Ava from Iron Lung (2026). do not fucking call me captain unless the following are both true:

you are my friend

you are making a joke

if one or both of these things are not true I can and will tell you to fuck off.

trying to figure out who I am as a human being separate from the Consolidation of Iron. so far, I like to make art, and I care about my friends, and I'm vaguely interested in meteorology.

if you don't like my source character for whatever reason, just. leave me alone, please. i don't like discourse, and frankly, I don't have time for anyone who thinks I'm an irredeemably horrible person. if that's you, then congrats! you missed the entire point of what the movie was trying to say.

ava out.

sometimes the guilt is a tiny little droplet in the back of my head and sometimes it's the jaws of an anglerfish god ripping my soul apart with its teeth but it's always there. i can take on endless jobs for the system, i can be polite and make myself useful and never again use my voice to command another person, but none of it will wash the blood off my hands

[starry-eyed-combat-laced]

1.10%. Fuck. Just, fuck.

happy birthday to me! my birthday is 108/350 EIC, which translates to April 18th in the Gregorian calendar. I am officially Negative 338 Years Old :-)

[ID: a flaming text gif that reads "DYSCALCULIA FUCKUP" in all caps. End ID.]

I FUCKED UP MY MATH

I'm actually -316. I messed up the conversion between Gregorian and EIC somewhere. Whoops.

people will really watch the COI torture a man for 2 hours and then come out the other side going "yeah the COI was right and Ava did nothing wrong and actually Simon deserved it because he's an Evil Criminal"

the moon is a rock you can stand on

[the timestamp is when I started the drawing— that's what the moon looked like then. it's much, much bigger now.]

Get in loser, we're going to the moon

[nasa]

That's us, together.

While we're looking up at the Artemis II astronauts journeying to the Moon, they're looking back home at us. 

In this image, Earth peeks through the capsule window, reminding us that a view like this relies on the ingenuity and hard work of countless people back home.

In the second image, we see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere.

Follow the Artemis II astronauts on their journey to the Moon:

you ever listen to a song and it makes you so thoroughly ill and then you show it to your friend and it makes them so thoroughly ill too and you are once again hit with the fact that all of the divisions were fake and neither side was better than the other because everyone was subhuman either way

survivor's guilt

PC crashed and made me lose a few hours of progress on several drawings so I decided to edit the pics I took of Ava while at the movies to not baby rage about it
