Even when you don't choose your soulmate, you still choose love.

or

The story where Annie isn't Armin Arlert's soulmate, and how she learns to be okay with it.

-O-

I commissioned the amazing and talented Xioviie to make a comic based on my fic for Aruani Week 2022; Day 1 - Soulmates.

TW: Gore, Dead Marco.

my eyes are wide open, my face to the sky is that you i’m hearin’ in the tall grass nearby? momma, come find me before i do die hey, hey, momma, look sharp

Attack On Titan is a Work of Love

Something I’m always in awe of, is how love is depicted in Attack On Titan. Mostly, because it feels realistic and relatable. Love isn’t always the big, over-the-top Romeo and Juliet type.

Love is Eren wrapping a scarf around Mikasa.

Armin regularly going to see Annie.

Love is Levi and Hanji knowing each other so well, they’re able to communicate without the need for words.

Historia trusting Ymir so much, that she was the first one she revealed her real name to.

Love isn’t always flowers and big confessions like the ones we see in movies or media. Daily, human love lays in the detail. It’s in consistency, in those little day-to-day gestures a person can have with another. it’s in waiting for your partner with a nice meal at home, in sharing a moment of comfort, in understanding eachother by just looking into one another’s eyes. it’s in protecting and caring and nurturing and motivating.

And it’s why love in Attack On Titan will always feel real. Palpable. Beautifully subtle.

To me, it will always be grounbreaking how, in a world so full of hatred, Isayama managed to create so many unbreakable bonds of the most imperfectly pure love, and how he was able to explore love in all of its different phases and colors.

Love between brothers/family:

Love between friends:

Idolatry (the tpye of love that makes you go blind)

Unrequited love:

Grief (the loss of someone you loved):

New-found love:

It will always be close to my heart, how Attack On Titan shows love at every corner, in every frame: in words of hope, in helping somebody who struggles, in the will to protect somebody at the highest of costs, in the joking and teasing in affectionate ways. It’s all there, in the small, in what the eye doesn’t always see. It’s always been.

So, even when Attack On Titan can be seen as a work of war and life and death and how the evil parts of the human world work, to me, it will forever be a work I remember for being overflowed with love, too.

gosh but like we spent hundreds of years looking up at the stars and wondering “is there anybody out there” and hoping and guessing and imagining

because we as a species were so lonely and we wanted friends so bad, we wanted to meet other species and we wanted to talk to them and we wanted to learn from them and to stop being the only people in the universe

and we started realizing that things were maybe not going so good for us– we got scared that we were going to blow each other up, we got scared that we were going to break our planet permanently, we got scared that in a hundred years we were all going to be dead and gone and even if there were other people out there, we’d never get to meet them

and then

we built robots?

and we gave them names and we gave them brains made out of silicon and we pretended they were people and we told them hey you wanna go exploring, and of course they did, because we had made them in our own image

and maybe in a hundred years we won’t be around any more, maybe yeah the planet will be a mess and we’ll all be dead, and if other people come from the stars we won’t be around to meet them and say hi! how are you! we’re people, too! you’re not alone any more!, maybe we’ll be gone

but we built robots, who have beat-up hulls and metal brains, and who have names; and if the other people come and say, who were these people? what were they like?

the robots can say, when they made us, they called us discovery; they called us curiosity; they called us explorer; they called us spirit. they must have thought that was important.

and they told us to tell you hello.

So, I have to say something. 

This is my favorite post on this website. 

I’ve seen this post in screenshots before, and the first time I read it, I cried. Just sat there with tears running down my face. 

Because this, right here, is the best of us, we humans. That we hope, and dream of the stars, and we don’t want to be alone. That this is the best of our technology, not Terminators and Skynet, but our friends, our companions, our legacy. Our message to the stars. 

I’m flat out delighted, and maybe even a little honored, that I get to reblog this.

why isn’t there more gravity falls/scooby doo crossover stuff ;U;;

Okay but @cirilee this could became so Angsty, imagine like….

Stan suddenly gets up from his couch, almost spilling his coffe on his shirt “W-Wait! you kids live in a van?! all 4 of you??? ”

Shaggy awkward smiled backing off one step from the adult “ and a huge dog, yes”

Stan flgotba little closer, looking at them carefully, he hasn’t seen those guys in any different clothier for the whole week, how do they sustain themselves, how long since they have taken a proper shower?

“ And a huge dog… What do you guys even eat? Do you even make any money from your… Investigating thingy ? ” an expression or slight concern appears on the old man face, as he looked at the four teenager in front of him.

Shaggy" what? No man Ahah, we just like to help people.

Also, Sometimes I eat Dog-food" the boy cheerfully laughed off

Freddy’s expression changes into a slightly disturbed one “ yeah, he does…”

Stan carefully sits back down his couch, hands on temples and eyes concerning into nowhere in particular

“ kids, have you…” been kicked out? He wanted to ask, no it wasn’t a subject he wanted to bring up, he knew how it felt when people looked at him like a poor hobo during his youth, it didn’t feel great.

“how old are you? Are you at least 18?”

Velma , the younger of the group stepped in “ no sir , Fred and Shag are both 17, and Freddie’s the only one with a license, I’m 15 and Daphne is 16, but we can manage” she got closer to her friends into a light hug.

Stan’s memories all came back to him in a rush, THEY ARE TOO YOUNG TO LIVE ON THE STREET, One of them is only two years older than Dipper and Mabel, that’s… That’s so wrong.

“ i see… So, you’re okay? Do you need any help?” he looked at them, opening his wallet and taking something like 200 bucks out of it, as they hid a little of concern behind they’re expression

“no sir we’re fine -”

“i could give you money, if you want. Some f-Food or or I dunno, clothes? ”

Stan’s voice stated cracking and his mind ran faster than his mouth, he had clothes, Mabel could make them all a sweater for the colder nights, did they have a blanket? Did they sleep on the back seats???? Maybe he could give them some pillows or-or the laundry coupons he had been saving, yes.

He needed to help those kids, this wasn’t okay.

The kids all looked at eachother

“sir…. Why do you want to help us?” now concern showing on their faces loud and clear, making Stan finally compose himself and let go of the breath he ad been holding.

“ well I… I…. Let’s just say I found myself in a similar situation as you kids when I was your age … But I was alone back then… ”

They are togheter, he tought, at least they have someone to always count on, right?

“but… But maybe you are okay” he put on a fake smile “sorry for insisting” Stan touched his harm, remembering all the nights he dreamed of his home back in New Jersey, his warm bed, his brother… Oh, how he wished to receive this kind of help from anyone, really, even a stranger when he was younger.

“ oh… we undestand now…” Daphne touched the old man’s shoulder, giving him a sad smile.

“ yea… Maybe… Maybe we could use some food? Mabel told us about your Stan-Cakes, we haven’t had a nice breakfast since last Monday” Freddie smiled, as he could litterally see Stan’s expression softening

“Sure, I can make Stan-Cakes… Hope you don’t mind one or two hair in it though” he smiled, putting on a happy face as Mabel hugged his side

“Yay! I’ll go make some Mable-juice!” she yelled as she picked up some dinosous toys from the dirty ground and run into the kitchen, leaving all of them quiet disturbed.

!!!!!!!! THIS HEALED ME OMIGOD !!

This is so awesome, that is exactly the connection i would build on! Stan himself was surviving on the road for years through parlor tricks and schemes and he instantly sees himself in them –!!

this is super adorable, thank you for actually putting words to it ;V;

(the other thing of course tho: the gang would eventually find out that he’s the local trickster, faking all his artefacts, so conflict eventually rears its beautiful head! the gang obviously doesn’t support tricking people, and stan has no patience for teens policing his mystery shack XD)

choking on water is the worst because how do you stop choking? drink something? well ive got some bad news for you

Lean your head forward, preferably to knee level, and let the water kind of drain out of your mouth. When your are able to, take deep slow breaths. No heimlich maneuver or physical assists from somebody else should be used beyond this, otherwise you could vomit and escalate the issue. Its about keeping the larynx open. Hopefully this helps.

Tsuy's room reveal! Kinda bummed we never get to see her room in the manga :/ this was a comic for the peas in a pod zine, we finally get to post our pieces. This took a little over 45 hours to complete, so Im glad I get to share it with y'all!

Birds do it, bees do it, educated fleas do it,

let’s do it, let’s 

REMAKE THE LIGHT FURY

Toothless used to be a realistic creature, designed to balance on the visual knife blade’s edge between appealing and terrifying. He borrowed his coloration from panthers and manta rays and his movement from cats because they are real animals that master that cute-fierce combo, too. He could look menacing and then loveable at the drop of a hat. 

Then in HTTYD 2 somebody hit him with the Puppy Stick. I haven’t seen any better explanation of the visual problems with Toothless from HTTYD 1 to HTTYD 3 other than this Reddit user’s, so we’re just going to skip trying. 

Read that. Anyway. Let’s move on to the Light Fury.  Everyone’s talked over and over the problems with the Light Fury’s design. So I don’t think I need to go into depth with that, either. Suffice to say, I believe that the way a character is designed should reflect their purpose in the story. She was never meant to be a species that was exciting to learn more about, unlike the Bewilderbeast or the Night Fury. She was just meant for cute interactions with Toothless. I think her design, sad as it is, reflects that lazy story direction. 

BUT NOT OUR REDESIGNS. And mine is no exception! If I’m going to change the story structure of HTTYD 3 (and I am) then the Light Fury has to change, big time. 

First we’ll talk about the species. 

We all know there are more than one Light Fury visible in the third film, and that’s the idea I hinged my little “fix it” re-write of HTTYD3 on in this post. I’m not going to restate it, but a lot of it focuses on Hiccup and Toothless discovering a whole Fury Flock who has migrated out of distant, hostile lands and is resting near Berk on their way to the Hidden World.

This way, instead of the Love Interest Fury just serving as Catnip that makes Toothless act dippy and cuddly, they actually have a purpose—because they’re tied to a mystery. They’re the whole plot. This way, instead of Toothless waking through the woods and happening upon a single personality-bland version of himself with no build-up, the Light Furies are a whole community and species that the story spends as much time on as they did the Night Fury in the first film.  Anyway. So while our heroes are uncovering all the interesting quirks and hierarchy of the Fury Flock, we’ll do the same!

So without further ado—bum-ba-da-dum, let me introduce you to—

The Sky Fury!

Yeah, okay, I know it’s a different name and not too terribly different a design, but hear me out below the cut
