dandelions are magic. literally tiny suns in the grass that turn into the moon and then the stars when you blow on them. fucking insane.

I hate the animefication of the characters post aa4. The whitewashing (giving phoenix and Maya blue eyes) is so fucked up but also the characters are generally less Round and more Pointy and it sucks so bad. Aa6 phoenix looks WEIRD to me who is that guy. The official art for the trilogy is so warm and nice and silly in comparison. Just wanted to say this thanks.
"animefication" is such a good word for it. you're so right
something i appreciate about this site is how often i see friends, mutuals and strangers salivating over the most Some Guy looking people i’ve ever seen. i think it’s actually good for your psyche to see people carnally desire people that you would not even think twice about. it’s good for the self esteem, a good reminder that for every random ass person on the world there is a subset of people that wants to do unspeakable things to them
Here’s a video so you can hear the water and the thrushes. I took it for you because you couldn’t be there. <3
for the love of god, write all the self-indulgent scenes you want. be utterly shameless about including every last fantasy. i know everyone likes to share quotes and quips about how miserably hard writing is, but please please try thinking of it as a joyful act where you get to be a messy human who makes art rather than some pain filled quest for icy perfection.
If you've been harmed by cbt, I see you. You're valid, and you do not deserve to be subjected to more clumsy attempts. Just because The System(TM) claims cbt is a magical perfect cure for all mental troubles doesn't mean that's true for you, in your current place and time. I wish you strength and patience in all things, but especially in finding a healing path that respects you as a person.
