Y'all, sometimes it's not your trauma or the disorder or the way you process information. Sometimes you're just in the wrong and you could have behaved better. Sometimes you're just a dickhead and you gotta recognize it and own it.
Knowing the difference is tough, but it really does help you on the road to recovery or on the road to managing your symptoms. Taking the time to recognize that in myself helps me know when I can give more or when I really do need help and understanding. Sometimes we are just assholes and that's when you gotta go "I'm sorry, what can I do moving forward?" And in that asking? You get to explain where you need help.
Using the hobbit age of adulthood (33) and average life expectancy (100), and comparing them to the legal age of adulthood in 1937 England (21) and life expectancy at the time (~late 50s early 60s):
Frodo (51, physically unchanged since 33) is the equivalent of a human 32-33 year old, and looks 21
Sam (39) is the equivalent of a human 24-25 year old
Merry (37) is the equivalent of a human 23-24 year old
And Pippin (29) is the equivalent of a human 18-19 year old, and by both hobbit and 1937 English tradition, still underage.
When we first meet them before the timeskip:
Frodo (33) - the equivalent of a 21 year old (barely, it was the days after his birthday)
Sam (21) - the equivalent of a human 13 year old (Which is adorable, bc his father describes him as constantly being over at the Baggins’ house, listening raptly to Bilbo’s stories)
Merry (19) - the equivalent of a human 12 year old (which is really funny because Merry is chilling at Frodos house and helping him distribute the stuff from Bilbo’s will and kind of affectionately sasses Frodo quité a bit and that’s so much funnier thinking of Merry as a literal child, which didn’t occur to me when I was listening to that scene)
We don’t meet Pippin but he’d be 11. The equivalent of a human 7 year old.
During the timeskip it talks about how Frodo mostly hangs out with the younger hobbits and is closest to Merry and Pippin out of everyone, and when I was listening, I was just like “oh okay his friends just happen to be younger” but no they were both literal kids for most of that timeskip, Frodo’s that guy who hangs out with kids because grownups all exhaust him.
(and meanwhile, the kids are just like LOOK ITS OUR COOL BIG BROTHER FRODO)
Bonus – I don’t remember the exact numbers, but Bilbo is basically a guy in his 80s who looks 33. Which really drives the ring thing home imo
'my significant bother' lmaooo
my esteemed rival,
I just wanted to talk about this scene because I noticed something: Levi is picking Hanji up, but the way he is leaning at the door and looking, I think he was waiting there for a longer time and didn’t just came at the very moment . And when he called Hanji to get moving(because she didn’t listen to poor Moblit), she looked surprised, as if she didn’t knew he was there the whole time(when he just came she would have heard his footsteps and we , the watchers ,would see him coming at this moment)
So I call it a levihan scene because it seems as if Levi watched her working and was waiting in patient for her while the others left them
Levihan Week Day 4: Private/Season
My interpretation: Levi and Hanji wish to be alone together when they die… I tried…
