Every 21st Century Piece Of Writing Advice: Make Us CARE About The Character From Page 1! Make Us Empathize

Henry and Francis at any given moment

Working on something rn but until then take at look at these guys my mum got me for easter

BSD MINI MOCHIS!!!! I got a bundle of Atsushi, Kyouka, Dazai, Kunikida, Yosano and Akutagawa. (The squishmallow is a 7in one that's there for scale).

They're so silly i love them dearly. My personal favourite is Kyouka because I love the details of her outfit and design (she has hairband, a bow on her back and flowers in her hair it's so cute).

Also here's this photo I took of the Aku one.

Bunny Corcoran be like “I know a spot” and then scams you with a 300$ bill in an expensive restaurant

Read this book recently how’s my lineup

I think it's interesting that many of the languages Henry learns are liturgical/sacred/associated with religious works.

Ancient Greek goes without saying, but there's also (If I remember correctly, don't have access to the text at the moment) Coptic, Latin, and Pali.

Henry has been searching for something beyond the physical world to believe in, and feel at home in because he isn't altogether connected to this world. He uses the skill he knows he has, languages, to search for a place he feels spiritually at home.

Him suggesting the bacchanal tells us he does believe in the Greek pantheon, but if we stick with this reading, that makes sense because Julian encourages a tendency he already had.

Henry's headaches could perhaps be likened to trances, further cementing him as a character drawn toward faith. His material wealth also highlights this, as he is mostly disconnected from the real world in the sense of needing to know how much things cost.

His search for faith begins before joining the greek class. This could bring him into a parallel with Richard, who recognizes he himself was in the right circumstances to be in a cult, also searching for something more than his physical/material life

"Do you really? You’re adorable when you joke that way with a serious face.” But it was no joke. It was true.

Dazai Osamu, No Longer Human

me, I fear...

Like, I know the entire point of tsh is not to romanticise the characters in the way Richard does, and not to do everything for the aesthetic but... tweed and classics :(

Richard was really giving y/n energy when he almost died from hypothermia and needed to be saved by a big smart man with dark hair.

Hycanith and Apollo sillys
