(never degraded someone before) you have your mother's cruelty. and your father's cowardice.

Maybe it's naive of me, but whenever I see portraits like this, with just a father and daughter, it restores my faith in humanity a little. Because people seem to love this idea that fathers never loved their daughters in the past and only saw them as bargaining chips for marriage or whatever, but look at the guy in the first portrait on the left, he loves that little girl! And the dad trying to do his work while his daughter bothers him with an Old Timey Barbie. The man teaching his daughter geography, his expression is so soft! The way the man in the last portrait holds the little girl's hand! And none of these are incidental, these aren't photographs, someone (probably the father) paid good money and sat down for hours so that they could have a painting of themselves and their daughter. Probably because they loved their daughter.

(this is probably somewhat related to my other favourite genre of painting, Husband With Multiple Kids Making Come Hither Eyes At His Wife)

I wanted to draw prisonblee. He was plotting in there.

Literally for a second thought I saw something it was the damn hairstyle

Finding some random artists OC and getting so incredibly attached to the character and design out of nowhere like hi. I’ve just met you and your Pet Freak. I’m going to Monitor You so I can one day catch another sighting of your Pet Freak

former living weapon whumpee who doesnt know any of their "favourite things". theyve been stripped of autonomy and identity for so long that piecing together fragments of what they might want or like feels foreign and wrong to them. they basically have to rebuild a personality from scratch.

this video cursed me i literally can’t listen to this song now without thinking of this

yes, I’d love for my ship to be canon too, but I feel like fandom culture today focuses too much on “my ship must be canon or else I will be a bitch and harass people about it” energy that we’ve lost the main point of shipping two fictional characters together, why we do it in the first place, which is that it’s fun. it brings us comfort and joy. and even if the ship isn’t canon, we have fan contents, so many amazing fan art and fanfics. you can create whatever you want about them. make them kiss. make them yearn for each other. make them confess their love under the rain.

“but it’s not canon” THEY ARE ALREADY FICTION. canon or not. they are a fragment of imagination forged by their canon creators, meaning YOU can create your own art about them too.

canon = art made by canon creators, they created it, it’s out there, it exists, it’s valid.

fan contents = art made by you, you created it, it’s out there, it exists, it’s just as valid.

One of the things that I appreciate 03 doing was having Roy meet Zolf again after he was released from prison and joins the military again.

Im so upset we didn’t get that in BH OR the manga 😔

Yes!! It's such a missed opportunity. It SUCKS that Mustang has almost no reaction to hearing Kimblee is at Briggs, iirc

Dude should at least be freaked the fuck out that Kimblee is out of prison

Even if he heard of his release before that scene, we should've seen that!
