Forgive Me Lord For I Have Imagined A Life Far More Soft And Tender Than The One You Created For Me

love them forever and ever

I hope fandom atleast noticed that during 'umi e' Mafuyu was actually drowning metaphorically and had to think of Ritsuka's face in Minato Mirai to try to keep himself grounded

(I think Ritsuka's voice helped him at last). And he started being lively only after 'umi e' ended and they played another song.

'umi e' wasn't something Mafuyu wanted or requested for. He was thrown into it. While already having an emotional crisis because things were reminding him too much of his past which he would've rather forgotten.

The memories were what he was thrown into! He was trying to fight them, find his bearing. He had to look away from it to look at the memory of Ritsuka's face when he confessed to Ritsuka, he was trying to cling to Ritsuka's memory to keep himself grounded. He was so brave and looking for Ritsuka to anchor him.

But it wasn't enough. See he was drowning still!

And then Ritsuka started singing.

Ritsuka saved him. Ritsuka's voice brought him back from a nasty panic attack, brought him back from giving up, because he could recognise the kindness, the love, however misguided.

Also if I may point it out, before Ritsuka started singing, no one even understood that it was indeed a love song! Mafuyu was drowning in grief, NOT in love.

Ritsuka's voice was what brought the love out. Because Ritsuka himself was the source of the love. And pulled Mafuyu out of 'the sea'.

For Reference, in case you have stupid in your life as well …

Teen Wangxian during the cloud recesses arc!

I still can’t believe that Wei Wuxian shared that book with Lan Wangji and he didn’t even look at it himself 🙄

"And forever after, his eyes could never move away from him again."

Holy shit I think this took like 10 years off my life.

anyway I'm trying to learn how to use CSP cause it has more options than SAI so this took... forever. But hey, I think I'm getting the hang of it.

Everyday is like. Endure Emotions and Complete Tasks. Can I die

The Voltron creative really had James and Keith giving each other "fuck me" eyes every scene they were in together and yet barely had them speak. Cowards.

What happens to me and probably many artists

Lan Wangji’s transition from awkward teen afraid of his feelings to give-no-fucks 30’s after Wei Wuxian returns is truly immaculate, like the person who used to annoy the crap out of him is now hated by everyone except him and as the head of the Wei Wuxian defense squad, his argument is literally “ok but have u considered that he’s hot?”
