Ooookay so I got locked out of this tumblr account on every device but my phone (moral of the story: update your email address) and I had a crazy delusion that I could get it back but that seems to be a pipe dream So this will be the last post on this blog. I've moved over to asecondglassofcinnamonwine.tumblr.com . See y'all around.

A poster on Reddit asks: What are two events that took place in the same time in history but don’t seem like they would have?

Anime aesthetics: Team Mustang (Fullmetal Alchemist) Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. Here at Central Headquarters, there was a band of brave soldiers, all willing to make that sacrifice in the name of peace. This is a tale of love and courage. A tale of the Flame Alchemist, Colonel Mustang, and his loyal team.

CLAMP + Reductress Headlines, part 4.

The funny thing about the historical usage of the term “adventurer” is how it gravitates to extremes. You look at any given “adventurer”, and I guarantee you, either they’re a murderous grave robber with delusions of grandeur, or else they just wanted to look at birds and it sort of got out of hand. No middle ground whatsoever.

[unseenphil]

Adventuress is much less binary, as it ranges from “Code for probably being lesbian or bisexual”, “Either of the above, but also set a convent on fire in order to seduce a nun”, or “We think maybe straight, but ran away from an abusive husband and accidentally founded a small kingdom in the middle east”

Your tags today are the best thing! :D #RIP Viktor Nikiforov #cause of death: Yuuri's unchained Eros #don't mourn for Viktor he died as he lived #in a constant state of near orgasm caused by his husband's ice skating

it’s only fair that Viktor suffer - it’s his own damn fault for kindling Yuuri’s sexual awakening, and by god he’s man enough to take responsibility for that

“A pacifistic exploration art game.”

“The player slips into the role of a mighty forest god to restore the harmony in a mesmerizing forest and relieve it of a mysterious infestation. This shuddersome, mothlike infestation is drawn to the conflicts of the forest’s inhabitants. 

“Through observation and by using the abilities of nurturing and withering fascinating plants, the player can solve said conflicts. NIVA’s scenic art style, relaxing music and simple but intriguing game mechanics invite you to explore the forest and have a rest from the stressful everyday life.”
