Let the poor man rest.

#also no he doesn't want to experience life as a normal person. no he wouldn't sacrifice his powers to live again.#he LOVED being powerful. he was very proud of his powers. he was at the top of the world. what he disliked was being so lonely at the top.#which having reunited with Geto now he is not.#and he wanted to keep the next generation safe due to his past regrets and teach a generation of kids to be at the top together.#and he wanted to get rid of the corrupt higher-ups and reform the Jujutsu society.#and he did all of that. Yuta and Yuuji are both alive and safe and the kids are all reunited with each other stronger than ever #and the higher-ups are d**d.#Gojo obviously wouldn't hate to keep living. he clearly didn't expect to lose and die. but as he himself confirmed #he died doing what he loved. he went out the way he wanted. he went out with a bang. he had the best fight of his life and gave it his all.#as he said 'he had fun'. he said it would have been embarrassing if he died of old age or sickness.#and now that he's gone he's happy with his friends and especially Geto. he found peace.#He said it himself 'Now i'm wishing that it's not just a dream'.#also for those of you who say that Geto & Gojo wouldn't be together because one would go to hell and one to heaven... no. just no.#first of all. Gojo did a mass m*r*** before his death #second of all. they're Buddhists. they don't have heaven and hell. don't bring Abrahamic religions into everything.#and you'd be surprised by the excuses the Abrahamic religions find to not let people in heaven.#probably Gojo wouldn't go to heaven even if he didn't kill the higher-ups due to...idk... occasionaly doing pranks or sth.#but Gege apparently created a whole other afterlife of his own. and Toji Geto Gojo Nanami and everyone were all gathered there together.#you SAW that. so stop.#jujutsu kaisen #jjk #gojo satoru #satoru gojo #jjk gojo #gege akutami #my two cents #satosugu

Very random it's four am but I do like to believe that Ollie cared about Theo considering the two horror bros were chilling in the vents together like two seconds before Catnap died and Proto got like ten times more aggressive after his death. playing with a toy but then it rips out your organs and you have to clean the mess with acid. Rip the toy to shreds.

I love your art btw it's so tasty!! Congrats on the college :33

tribute to the fallen ^^ it's the least he can do really

#they were quite close i imagine #also “playing with a toy but then it rips out your organs and you have to clean the mess with acid. Rip the toy to shreds”. good imagery #im super curious on the extent of their bond tbh #when theo was still theo w his “imaginary” friend... did said friend use his true voice #or did he already accept his place as a prototype #is catnap privy to 1006's troubles or is he kept in the dark #amber apparently said in a discord call that proto uses preston as a mute therapist to vent abt the stresses of life #i think the only reason the former can be that vulnerable around preston is bc the guy cannot physically tattle #or talk back #or do anything. really.#genuinely beyond that it's a little difficult for me to envision post hoj prototype intentionally making himself vulnerable around ppl #so i think there's definitely a bit of distance between him & catnap + the unbalanced power dynamic of god & devoted acolyte #doesn't erase the fact that they were most likely each other’s first friends so compared to literally everyone else #1188 probably meant a lot to 1006 #now was catnap dying part of the plan? “ollie” seemed very on board w it & even unbothered tho that may be his sociopathic talent of acting #song is “brother in arms” by dire straits ^^ it was playing on our old family radio a while back so i got inspo to make this art #eurydiceryn #my art #poppy playtime #poppy playtime prototype #the prototype #experiment 1006 #oliver ludwig #ollie ludwig #catnap #theodore grambell #poppy playtime fanart #tysm as well anon!! im very happy i got accepted otherwise i really would not know what to do

I think one of the biggest tragedies of Laios & Falin and their relationship is how much his actions impact her life. But like. Specifically how much they WOULDN’T impact her life as much if they weren’t both stuck in such a shitty abusive situation.

This part of the Falin-tries-makeup daydream hour comic is what got me thinking about it again because truly it just... it seems like such a like an offhand comment that I'm sure Laios didn't mean to be cruel or anything. That's just like. A little kid not thinking about what they are saying. ESPECIALLY when the kid in question is Laios.

But man they depended on each other SO much as kids. Too much. It really feels like they didn't have any other source of positive reinforcement, or anyone else to share themselves with. So of course an offhand comment like that has a huge impact on Falin.

Or this little bit from one of the flashbacks:

This tears me apart. Do you think it tears him apart to think about? I think it does. I think Laios holds every small failure to care for Falin against himself.

And then there's the Bigger stuff. The way that him coping with his own trauma ended up impacting her.

Like his interest in monsters. Like him going to find a ghost, and accidentally revealing Falin's magic to the whole village in the process.

Like him needing to leave. And leaving her behind.

He shaped her life so much, and he carries so much guilt for it. And again, there should have been other people there to help. The same things that made Laios need to leave home are the things that made his leaving so hard on Falin. She ate alone after that. She shouldn't have had to eat alone just because Laios wasn't there.

She was 9 when he left for school, and he was 11.

Nine. And Laios feels like he failed her because he didn't stand by her through this better. As an eleven year old.

Both of these kids deserved so much better from the world.

#dunmeshi analysis #dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #falin touden #laios touden #dungeon meshi spoilers #AND this isn't even getting into her leaving the academy & how much it seems like that was directly tied to how poorly he was doing #there's a comic in the adventurer's bible where marcille is like 'yeah she had a job lined up and everything'#and like. do you think he feels bad for that too #like he wrecked her life by leaving #and wrecked her life by showing up #what do you even do at that point. if you feel like a failed protector when you are away & and a burden when you return #unable to make yourself accept. unable to make yourself resist #Laios strongest moment is when he lets himself accept that. the contradiction of his life & his relationship with Falin #that he has to kill her to save her #as a small note this came out a little more focused on Laios' POV with this stuff but Falin's experience of it is v important to me too #didn't mean to sideline her but her feelings about stuff are more speculative and probably need a post of their own

#do not listen to our last summer from ragatha's pov. whatever you do.#anyway thinking about how she was probably always wary about getting attached to him because of (ahem) previous parental figure experiences #so she kept him at a bit of an arms length and didn't want to push or pry at all when he began isolating himself more (or whatever happened #and would then end up deeply deeply regretting that #anyway its ok because look theyre frolicking in a meadow #the amazing digital circus #tadc #ragatha #tadc ragatha #kinger #tadc kinger #my art

no fry potato for the meek (oh, to be a bird going lmao into the distance. holding a birdself-sized box of food)

#they go to the seaside potato purveyor. they obtain some snacks #yakumo gets swooped by seagulls each time #under this threat. he will starve. such is the necessary savagery of the animal kingdom #he must rely on the altruism of bolder species (adelie penguin rei) to survive in this competitive seascape.#all seeing surge #the situation would differ if yakumo were responsible for securing EIDEN'S fries #see. here's the thing. if yakumo is out to retrieve a snack for peckish mr eiden #then he will protect those munchies with his LIFE. his senses will sharpen. his reaction speed will flare #if those same seagulls tried to swoop down on MR EITO'S fries... i bet yakumo would snag that thang's neck in midair #it would be with fiery eyes and a threatening voice that he grips the seagull tighter and warns... YOU DO NOT TOUCH MR EIDEN'S PLATE.....#but that's not as fun to imagine. so instead we have yakumo trying to eat and getting eaten instead #honestly.. yakumo would probably be happy to give up his fries to the local wildlife. they must be hungry if they're willing to fight for i #maybe even usurping the cook position at one of the stalls to prepare something more bird-appropriate? he WOULD.#but that's ALSO not as fun to imagine. yakumo peacefully feeding the seagull masses? NOT getting attacked in the head?#nah. he gets confused for food now.#eiden . ever as always considerate and protective eiden. will rush to yakumo's aid #but rei knows that the snake can handle himself. so he grazes unhurriedly on his own potato sticks #(if the snake cannot handle himself after all? then that will be a valuable learning experience. for the snake.)#(the point is: i must attend to my fries.)#(my fries are of the utmost importance. you understand.)#nu carnival yakumo #nu carnival eiden #nu carnival rei

Rewatching EP 13 of WHA and the fact that Sasaran deliberately calls out Agott for her lies, and says that the pointed caps are liars while implying brimhats aren't, is deeply ironic once you know about Sasaran. Sasaran saying he's liberated himself of flesh during the interaction when in fact he's lying clearly tells us deliberately within the story that it's not just the pointed caps who lie, but the brimhats themselves are also liars. It sets up that both sides are not to be trusted; that neither side is beyond using violence and hurting people to get their goals; it's a complex situation where both sides have valid criticisms of the other, but are also not without criticism.

#I find it so interesting you have Sasaran after ungwin because with her you she's not directly threatening them harm but testing them #vs Sasaran is partly doing it to test Coco but also because he clearly enjoys wielding power over people #the fact that he turns Euini into a animal-human which is not dissimilar to himself also shows a streak of malice in wanting someone to #experience what he's negatively experienced... and also p stems somewhat from Sasaran hiding in the shadows himself and seeing that in Euini #which is interesting cause it's v much like... not really something that would prompt coco specifically. not that she wouldn't fight for #euini. but Sasaran doesn't really execute a plan that would be more compelling to coco like he threatened to Agott which I think comes from #his selfish side...#anyways I just find it such a good touch that so clearly shows neither side can be trusted and both lie #probably spelled the lidless eyes name wrong... so many spellings...#hugin rambles #hugin rambles wha #wha #witch hat atelier #wha spoilers #witch hat atelier spoilers #wha sasaran #wha analysis #wha meta

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will

#svsss #scum villian self saving system #shen qingqiu #shen yuan #the fact that people think scum villain #-a series that examines and criticizes common tropes in fiction-#is somehow against criticism or being a little hater is wild to me #especially since shen qingqiu never gets punished for being a hater #heck- he's still a little hater by the end of the series #he mostly gets punished for treating life like a play and like he and the people around him are characters #(or in other words- he suffers for denying his own wants and emotions and his own sense of empathy)#I think some of y'all underestimate how much writing/art is inspired by creaters being little haters #like example off the top of my head-#the author of Iron Widow has been pretty vocal about the book being inspired by their hatred of Darling in the Franxx #I think my interpretation of Shen Yuan's transmigration is also supported by the fact that this series is an examines writing processes #side note- though i understand why people say Shen Yuan is lazy and think its a valid take it still doesnt sit right with me #i am probably biased because my own experiences with chronic pain and depression and isolation #but ya- i dont think Shen Yuan is lazy so much as he is deeply lonely and feels purposeless after denying parts of himself for 20ish years #like yall remember the online fandom boom from covid right?#being stuck completely alone in bed while feeling like shit for 20 days straight does shit to your brain #the fact that no one came to check on him + he wasn't exactly upset about leaving anyone behind supports the isolation interpretation too #+in the skinner demon arc he describes his life of being a faker/inability to stop being a faker now that he's Shen Qingqiu #as “so bland he's tempted to throw salt on himself” and “all he could do is lay around and wait for death” (<-paraphrasing)#bro wants to be doing stuff but is stuck in paralysis from repeatedly following scrips made by other people #another point on “Shen Yuan isn’t lazy” is just the sheer amount of studying that man does #also he did graduate college- how lazy can he really be #he doesnt know what hes doing but he at least tries to actively train his students #and he actually works on improving his own cultivation + spends quite a bit of time preping the mushroom body thing #+he's experiencing bouts of debilitating chronic pain throughout all this #but ya tldr: Shen Yuan's transmigration is an encouragement to write and not a punishment and also i dont think its fair to call him lazy

i think Ulysses is one of the fnv characters that benefits the most in a modern AU. let this dude be an american history professor PLEASE

#my characterization of him is mainly: decently moral and caring intelligent man is pushed again and again to his limits by the world around #him #i think even within the fallout universe if he had been dealt a better hand in life #he would be stable and doing well for himself #unfortunately. ulysses’ life has been his home (first his tribe then the Legion then Hopeville)#being taken away from him again and again #i do think he voluntarily left the legion (much different than what happened to the twisted hairs or the divide) BUT! he still Left.#i don’t think ulysses is crazy at all he’s just vastly traumatized and trying to figure out the “why” of it all #is he obsessed?? that’s another conversation #fallout new vegas #ulysses fnv #fnv #fallout #my modern au for him is that he did military service to pay for college (got ptsd from the experience) and went on to teach american history #probably at a university on the west coast or in arizona
