"Do You Believe In Love?" I Believe In Fictional Men Loving Every Aspect Of Their Lover

being and dressing dark academia, looking mysterious, having hyper fixations on topics you like and finding dark topics interesting but when they get to know you, you are an optimistic, romantic person with a sunny disposition is my kind of dark academia.

How can a fictional character be more complex than me. Bitch you dont even exist give me your depth

ik blue period addresses a lot of topics in art and wouldve eventually transitioned into talking abt art for the sake of aesthetic and how not everything has to be imparted with deep meaning (kind of feels like what yotasuke’s arc is gearing up to be) , but i really reaally enjoy hearing hashida talk abt velázquez in ch 35 .

he and yotasuke both kind of encapsulate the part of it that i really enjoy so idk im just 🙈🙈🙈 these chapters r like . getting me so excited . ive always been sooo invested in like . just the overall visuals and looking specifically at the brushwork and the technical aspects of it all vs the more abstract stuff that yatoras been preoccupied w

i mean he kind of transforms it into thinking the skill sets themselves r full of meaning which is fine and definitely applicable 2 a lot of pieces and how diff movements are interpreted (like impressionism), but i also like the convo of things just existing 2 be because u wanted them to or bc you thought it looked good , pretty .

i also found the crab to be a super interesting part of the chapter. i read a comment from someone who said that everyone fawns over the tiny crab while yatora himself could not be less enthused. but after he goes to the exhibit w yotasuke and hashida and talks abt purpose, meaning, and the lackthereof, he ends the scene by painting the same crab from earlier , symbolizing his shift in mentality

aaa i loved it . one of my fav chapters honestly
