Actually just had a plot bunny based off that leak: Zutara getting soulmated by the literal spirits. Katara already thinking she’s found her forever with Aang, and it has to be cause the fortune teller said so. “She’d get with a strong bender, that’s the fortune, yeah?” And Zuko just kinda accepting Mai as it “feels right.” (What he’s used too) so he doesn’t think too deeply about it.

Both of them ignoring how strongly their pull is towards each other and how magnetic everything between them feels, from their convos to their chemistry, even just sitting alone together they feel at peace. It’s hard to ignore how right everything feels between them, the way their hands sorta drift closer to each other. But they forget themselves. It’s just friendship right? Friends are just like this.

Then, they enter the spirit world, and the spirits operate as if they already together. Because of course they are, they’re intertwined, spiritually linked. Soulmates. A married old couple

Since you’ve gotten back into genshin, which characters have caught your eye?

Hi Anon,

I am reaching through the screen to put both hands on your shoulders when I say this: the answer is Lohen. I am absolutely boy-crazy about him. I thought Varka or Flins might have been my favourite, but they were kind of boring to me. The most attractive thing about either of them was Varka's black shirt in his trailer and Flins' laugh. Since Scaramouche has become a respectable adult as Wanderer, which I'm very happy about, Lohen scratches that itch that's been begging on its hands and knees for even a lick of attention.

Lohen's trailer just released, and I'm getting flashbacks to Albedo. I thought Albedo was kind of boring and bland too, but then he hit us with that smug little smile, and I absolutely fell in love. It's amplified a thousandfold with Lohen because he's always doing that smug little smirk. That raised eyebrow during the scene when Varka notices the poison in his cup? His adventurer outfit?? I feel like a Victorian man who has just seen his first ankle and wrist.

But aside from him, I think Durin is really cute. I love his relationship with Albedo and Wanderer. I feel like a proud mother watching Scara grow beyond his initial revenge-driven goals and find a family through Durin and Nahida. (I adore Nahida and all the work she's put in. Go girl, go crash Dottore's car! Plus Wanderer's soft smile when she caught him will be stored in the folds of my memory.). Plus, his most recent animated trailer was adorable. In the same vein, I like Jahoda. My girlfailure. I wish her the best and pray she always stays expressive.

Nefer is so incredibly pretty. She's the first character, in my opinion, to look better in 3D. If only I could read and wasn't stupid, maybe I could use her skill and charged attack better, but I can't, so I just end up standing there like an idiot. I think Pantalone's 3D model is also quite good, though, to be honest, I don't really care for him at the moment. He's only just been introduced, so there's still time.

Lastly, Dottore. I'm going to be honest: I don't really like his boss designs, but I've always been a fan of "casual" wear. They just seem a little too over-the-top for me, which I know is the point. But his demeanour and how crazy he was over the Traveler, plus his VA saying freaky things, is what has me kneeling over. I liked Dottore back in the webtoon, so I was kind of sad that segment wasn't shown alongside the others, but that's okay. 25, 35, and 65 have my heart. So long, sucker.

Today I was cleaning out my old emails and eventually I hit the point before I found a day job, when I was still trying to make things work out 100% as a freelance illustrator.

That was about 6 months before I was diagnosed with ADHD.

It was unnervingly easy to forget how hard all of that felt. Not having answers, just constantly feeling like I was drowning in my own skin. Blaming it on the stress, on current problems, on whatever. Generative AI was a good thing, in that sense. It forced me to go find a different and more stable solution to make my life work. It made me realize that girlbossing this one would eventually kill me.

I don't really know what's gonna happen to creative fields in the near future. I don't like how GenAI has invaded all spaces - especially where it's least welcome. But I know that won't stop big companies from pushing it even more. Collective action can definitely have consequences, but as individuals... it's bleak right now.

This PSA is more about the fact that if you happen to be a young adult, and things never seemed to click in place, and you've never looked into it too deep because all other adults around you always thought you were normal and just struggling a bit while growing up, so you could never voice your opinions out... maybe go get checked for ADHD. Especially if you happen to be AFAB.

I never failed a class. In fact, I graduated at least in the top half of all my classes. I even went to regional math competitions. I was the quiet smart kid who could not make friends for the life of her. I went to live in a different country during my university years, I didn't starve nor forget the keys nor get lost, I passed with excellent grades despite Covid, despite flying around every 3 months, despite a long distance relationship. I wasn't failing at life in all the ways people commonly expect ADHD havers to fail at life. Yet I also had so much anxiety and depression that I couldn't make it through a whole week without having a breakdown and crying myself to sleep. All the signs around me pointed towards the fact that this was considered normal and acceptable, and I just needed to suck it up and figure it out on my own.

ADHD can look invisible - especially to others. If there is something in your gut that's telling you that something is up, please don't ignore it.

It doesn't matter if you don't think your symptoms are severe enough, or if you think other people have it worse than you and therefore you're not as deserving of looking for help.

I generally don't like lore dumping about myself, but this one thing really wanted to come out today. If you're waiting for a sign from the universe to get on a waitlist for therapy, and you have the means to pursue all that, this is it.

Please take care of yourselves. The world is scary enough as it is out there.

Given that Starscream's immortal spark is perhaps TF's most famous Ghost, I really wanted GHOST being called that to be linked. It felt like such a random acronym for a bot relations/con hunting organisation, though I think they've confirmed they operated under that name at the start of the war. Maybe from a Meta angle? It doesn't help that Croft brings it up inbetween having SS on screen to hold a glaring contest over her torturing Skullcruncher.

Yeah, GHOST being named in relation to Starscream would've been pretty cool actually! That also crossed my mind while writing the last post, hehe.

But I guess they're named GHOST (apart from it being a kickass acronym for "Global Hazard and Ordinance Strike Team) simply because they operate in the shadows and are "unseen like a ghost", something like that. But since this came up while, as you already said, Croft was literally torturing a Decepticon most likely to get a rise out of Scream, the naming could also have some different background. Like. You know. Haunting someone, as ghosts often like to do.

There's a lotta room for interpretation here and I LOVE it.
