Leave alone as long as safe to do so

Nods. I agree death is not the only self sacrifice. Others include: - sacrificing one's Personal moral standards for greater good of those who care about. Example: A character who ardently against mind control because they had been victimised by it themselves but was forced into a scenario where they had to use mind control or something more awful and abusive would occur to great number of people.

ok but like when did self-sacrifice become synonymous with death? writers seem to have forgotten that people can make personal sacrifices for the greater good without giving their lives. plots about self-sacrifice and selflessness don’t always have to end in death. suffering doesn’t have to be mourning. you can create drama and emotional depth on your show without killing everyone. learn to explore the meaning of living rather than dying

Cool test, I got The Protector.

Hamatora the Animation Episode 7 (Waring: Spoilers)

I really dislike Moral now... He is a good villain, but I hate him.

Why Art? He was my favourite character! Why...? Moral is horrible, he didn't even let Art answer the damn phone! What's with the overkill, and ugh!

Sorry, Im just raging over this... It's so unfair. I knew he die from the comments before I watched the episode but geez... Moral you are getting on my nerves! Which means he's a good villain, but still...

RIP Art...  (If he's dead, I hope his not...)

Also I wonder what Moral said to him before he died... Hmm... I will not be able to go asleep tonight easily... Sigh. 

Best episode so far, despite Art's death. At least Art didn't give in, his determination is admirable. Anyway that's my rant.

This is so relaxing & beautiful

Cool examples of various African Architecture styles. A great series of sharp shots. This sort of thing. Really helps in fleshing out creating world settings. I never had a good reference guide for this sort of architecture, definitely a few styles that would be amazing in what call the Spring Continent & the Summerlands Continent.

i feel like we don’t talk about things like this enough

This looks link it would be great quick reminders of what to do when such things happen.

Here to help y'all gorgeous children

Please reblog and add your nationality in the tags along with what you answered! I'm very curious about this; and it's not to shame anybody, so don't be rude!

That definitely looks like a portal to the feywild.
