Apparently The Fact That This Is A Bible Class Will Not Stop Me From Bringing Up The Iliad

anything, anything

ok but can we talk about fairy tail's seven year time skip and the gaps that occurred in relations through that time?

like imagine you're erza and the guy you've known since you were a kid and you care so much about is responsible for so many horrible crimes but it wasn't really his fault, not really, but you discovered that too late. and you have hope that he'll go back to how he once was but now his memory is gone and he's gonna be in prison likely for the rest of his life but there's a chance. then you go to tenrou island and you think it's the end but when you wake up it's been 7 years and now you're still 19 years old and jellal is at least 26 and he's got his memory back and he's trying to make amends and he's so far away in life experience and relations with people and you feel you were left behind, he didn't even need you by his side to grow, to be good, and he won't really need you again

now imagine you're gray and you discover one of your oldest friends, like your brother, betrays you and the beliefs of the person you had in common but then the situation gets resolved and you can find peace between each other. but now lyon is seven years older than you and he's had longer time to advance his magic, ur's magic, and you know he's had to mourn both you and ur, and potentially looked at his magic and thought he was the last one from that little family of three from all those years ago. he doesn't know ultear, who has grown since the last time you saw her a few hours ago no wait, seven years ago, and she's also trying to make up for her many mistakes and she's more kind and gentle but you won't get to know her because she's already gone so soon after you returned

it's just so sad to think deeper about the consequences of seven years passing, lives continuing on without you and thinking about how everyone that loves you and you love thought you were dead and you don't know how to fix things or fit into this new time

nasha was THE highlight of Mickey 17 she actually felt like a character and not just the demure, loving girlfriend, she was messy and jealous and obsessive and it was such a fun watch, like she was literally this

hilson season 1: haha i too am in this episode. why is wilson always following house around.

hilson season 8: i need you because i don't know what i'm gonna do without you. i don't wanna die at the hospital i want to die here in your arms. if you die i'm alone. I need you to tell me that you love me. i'm not going to tell you that unless you fight. you're destroying your entire life. you can never go back from this

I'm sick *cough cough*

I beg you to toss the "dead fandom" narrative. Only wanting to share creations with bustling fandoms will one day absolutely have a negative effect on your presence on here. If you create like that, then you tend to me more focused on numbers and once those go down, you'll end up feeling miserable.

Waiting for a fandom to gain traction and then "hitting" when it gains popularity is also ridiculous. This is not a product you're trying to find the perfect launch date for. That kind of pseudo-economic thinking has to leave.

Instead, just create art or fic for whatever fandom you feel like creating for. Share those things. There are people out there who will absolutely find your stuff and enjoy it
