tfw you understand the importance of the episode of Alone at Sea and you understand that it is meant to make the audience uncomfortable in a way that shows deep complexity of characters, relationships, and the conflicts that rise from abusive and toxic relationships on both ends, but at the same time watching it gives you anxiety attacks and the idea of what happened in that episode makes your skin crawl and your ribs hurt
#steven universe spoilers#* anxiety#* abuse#* triggers#Alone at Sea#personal#tell me if i need to tag this as anything else#sorry that episode wrecked me#and i really don't use the term 'trigger' lightly but#yeah sorry#this is an incredibly important episode and the fact that theyre presenting it to a younger target audience is honestly such a great thing#i like how it didnt blow it off as a joke and how serious they made the situation#and it's so important for people to watch and understand this#and i feel like i should be no exception to this#but at the same time when lapis said 'i miss her' my chest was compressing so painfully and it kept getting worse and worse#especially when she described enjoying abusing jasper#i wasnt mentally or emotionally prepared for the depth of that episode and ik im ranting but#yeah sorry this is a lot i'm just gonna stop now#rant#bri's absolutely irrelevant life#ok to reblog i guess??
