Statement Begins

maggie stiefvater was right!!!!!! wake up!!! the world will collapse without art!!!! dreamers will fall asleep and the world will fall asleep and magic will fall asleep but we can do something!!!! make something!!! paint something, see something, weave something, write something, draw something, play something!!!!!! do every stupid thing that makes you feel alive!!!!!!!! care about something so hard that it hurts!!!!! there is still time!!!!!

Nightwing #90 is just- I just need a minute hold on

Wally is just there. He's just there and he's so happy that Dick is alive and Dick is so confident in their friendship. He knows that Wally would literally tear a building apart, piece by piece, until he found him. It's not even a question

And Wally basically forcing Dick to sleepover at his house? Top tier. I'm in love. Wally took one look at Dick, said 'is anyone going to make this man look after his mental & physical health?' and then didn't wait for an answer.

Wally with blue eyes is freaking me out but otherwise? This issue is spectacular. Can't wait for the second part.

team by @beautifully-brokenxx is seriously one of my favorite fics ever!! It’s so well written and most accurate service dog fic I’ve read to date. Some of Bakugou’s experiences as a first time team are exactly what I went through, I love it so much ❤️❤️❤️

[ID: two digital colored doodles. First of Bakugou with his face against and an arm wrapped around his black shepherd service dog Arlo, who wears a muted dark orange collar. Bakugou looks somewhat frustrated, but distracted by Arlo. In the second drawing Arlo stands at Bakugou’s side, the latter in his school uniform looking down at Arlo with a small smile, the former looks up at him with ears turned attentively. Arlo’s vest is dark teal with muted orange lining, a big bright orange patch reads “service dog”, two smaller, darker green patches read “please do not touch” all in Japanese. /End ID]

That has to be the most humiliating way to describe one of Earth's most terrifyingly effective predators.

Chip jrwi but he has longer hair,, yeah

soul on fire

ive never seen a single episode of bsd but this feels right

By popular demand (hi Nawy) I’m making a separate post for that bit on the latest Chuuya post that I cut out about Chuuya’s relation to emotional vulnerability, and how fics exploring this could be really nice. (For clarity, I cut it out because I didn’t think it flowed with the rest of the post, even if it is related to it.)

“There is a part of Chuuya that wants to be treated kindly without expectations - real friendship, an equal dynamic. It's notable in the particular moments that actually endear him to a person - the Flags going out of their way to give him information about his past simply because they're his friends, Adam trying to cheer him up by giving him hope about finding out his identity from N, whatever happened to result in his unshakeable trust in Dazai. You could even make an argument for the way he frantically and instinctively reached out to hold his own younger, weaker clone self in his arms as he died. I keep thinking about @originalaccountname’s desire to see more fics that focus on Chuuya receiving care and allowing himself to not have to always be the strong one. I'd like to see this too tbh, but not just because Chuuya deserves to feel comfortable enough to open up these vulnerabilities - but also because the entire notion of such a thing would be deeply conflicting to him, I believe, and that could make for some intriguing character study. 

See, that no-strings kindness runs completely counter to the self-concept he has and that image of himself he's built up as "the one who does the protecting". Favours are no problem, because those don't dig into his inner self and can be easily repaid.  But when it comes to more personally meaningful gestures, he's not great at accepting them, and tends to respond in one of two ways: getting defensive and looking for the "trap" or "catch", or briefly reacting with gaping surprise or muted happiness before immediately bottling that up with feigned irritation or indifference. I'm of the mind that it would take a long time to get him to the point where he could accept personally meaningful kind gestures and, god forbid, anything to do with emotional support, because in the end, it seems like he has a much easier time taking betrayal and pain in stride than acts of care. Chuuya expects danger. Kindness without expectation towards his person appears to be more shocking.”

A lot of the fics I’ve been working on involve tackling this particular contradictory aspect of Chuuya, but unfortunately they are all wips and for some reason do not write themselves. I highly encourage anyone who likes doing character study type pieces or just likes to see their favourite characters get some affection to play with this concept a bit. There’s a lot there to work and play with!
