The Corpse Bride will forever be one of my comfort movies, not even mentioning how AMAZING YOUR ART IS!!
Historically accurate Corpse Bride
Drawing inspirations from the 1870s-1880s . So perhaps the film might be set in the 1890s-1900s, if this dress was her mothers dress.....its a stretch, but that time period with fashion has the perfect silhouette for the hip hugging bodice she wears in the film - as you can see in my brainstorming sketches at the bottom. And instead of the bones of her ribs visible under the hole on her bodice, you can see the bones of her....corset 😅.
i live for ur demonbae hcs. got anymore? even ones pertaining to mabel or greg
I was talking about this today with @that-one-girl-behind-you
Wirt is not immortal, not as he is right now. He doesn’t know it yet but he will get to live a normal (or as normal it can be when you are an all powerful demon) life. He will grow old and such. The difference is that when he dies he will go straight back to the Unknown to take over as the Beast.
He will wake up to a smiling Beatrice, who after helping him up will slap him for leaving her all the work with taking care of the souls and the dark lantern. Then she will hug him because deep down he had always been afraid she would never get to see him again.
It’s a bit surprising to see himself young again, and to realize how the antlers that had before been present only on his shadow are now really on his head.
But all of it is nothing compared to seeing the young man waiting next to the trees, a smile on his face, and looking as young as he does.
Wirt will break down in ugly tar like tears because it has been 5 years since Dipper died, 5 years he had lived with the fear that he would never see him again, and now he’s here, and they have all of eternity together.
Mabel will join them years later, not because she is a lost soul, but because she sold her soul to Wirt in exchange of never getting a heatstroke while wearing her sweaters. Best deal ever.
a little bit earlier I was having a conversation with my mom about how I'm antisocial, and all I could think about was
I'm an alien. people don’t even believe in my existence, and those that do, when they see me, everyone thinks they’re lying.
okay, so i know i still have 1 year(which is about to start) before going into high school and im terrified. i want to go, its just that my brain has all these terrifying scenarios playing out about it and im freaking out. i cant tell if i should or shouldnt go

Do you think Killua and Gon's love languages are compatible and how so?
Heya!
huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh depends what you mean by that?
Gon’s way to reach out, to remind Killua how much he likes being with him, the declarations out of the blue, those are all compatible for Killua - everytime Gon had been vocal out of the blue about his affections for Killua, we saw direct physical reaction from him showing he was touched. So I think that works out.
On the other hand, Gon is rather perseptive, while he can’t realizes everything and is still oblivious at time, he has a strong understanding of some situation which allow him to get past some of Killua’s barrers and therefore, can make up for the amount of time Killua does not talk about his feelings. So Gon can look past how Killua closes himself about his feelings, and can still identify the actions Killua takes that are completely genuine. It can help with Killua’s language barrers a lot.
It works, but on the long term, they need to instore more communications. While so far they managed to get a lot through those, a lot of the unsaid is what brought the mutual breakdowns from the CA arc. Because sometimes Killua is too quiet for Gon to pick up what to cheer him up from, (The needle, the Bisky dilema, and Killua almost dying were all stuff Killua kept hiden from Gon and that Gon could never pick up on his own, no matter how perseptive he can be) or Gon will try cheering Killua up before the actual issue (Spending his time as he woke up from the Kite’s attack to reassure Killua only then to be in denial, which had Killua feel unable to tell Gon the truth by fear he may end up blaming him - and the fact when Gon legit killed himself he spent his last minutes reassuring Killua.).
The thing is that both knows that the other have a huge affection for them. On the most part, some of it works. But the CA arc also showed that, pushed to some extreme, those two behaviors wouldn’t be as compatible as they could have been in the Greed Island Arc. The GI arc showed us a lot of this Unsaid Understanding between those two, of Gon reading the situation despite Killua’s quietness over his feelings, and Gon acknowledging Killua’s action. This is the exact thing we can see as a parallel in the CA arc while, while pushed to personal extreme, those doesn’t work anymore.
I don’t think it’s a question of love language. It’s a little more complicated than that, and it enters a lot of conditional situations for it to work. The GI arc was proof that yes, their love languages were compatible, but the CA arc, with both pushed to those extreme, proved als that it wasn’t. Because they were at different personal mental state where it wasn’t working as well as before.
Again, i’ll repeat it over and over again, but they are in desperate need of communication. It may have worked in the begining with their unsaid understanding, but on the long term…. They need to talk more, to be honest. Killua needs to talk about what he feels, Gon needs to stop putting reassuring Killua over the things they should be talking about.
So y e. Idk i don’t think it’s a love language thing, and it’s not that easy to narrow down because Gon and Killua changed a lot during the course of the series and the events that happened to them challenged their habits and their ways to react to it. IT’s not that easy, it can’t be that easily narrowed down imo.
Take care!
theres a lot of things that scare me in this world, but i'd like to think that as of late, i've been working twards a better life, a slightly better me, slowly but surely.

Goddamn I love writing meta so here’s some more meta. A huge thank you to @owlphallacies for helping me revise this monster!
In this I’m going to be talking about something that’s been percolating in my brain for a long time: the relationship that Kite and Killua have to each other as characters. Specifically, that Kite is likely to be a narrative foil to Killua. A narrative foil is a literary device that contrasts two things (plots, settings, characters, etc) by either setting them up as ‘completely different’ or ‘extremely similar except for one key difference’. This example would be the latter, definitely, and as a matching set Ging is certainly a foil to Gon (there’s a lot to say there, but this is already a 20 page Word doc so >.> I’ll just touch on it at times).
It’s not unreasonable for Kite and Ging to be a ‘previous generation’ version of Killua and Gon given how that’s a common thing in shonen manga—One Piece, for example, is rife with characters inheriting the unfulfilled dreams of their mentors. It’s a good way to establish character motivation, in that case, but in this one would more of a catalyst for character development than protagonist-vs-antagonist plot events.
tl; dr: In all likelihood Kite acts as a narrative foil to Killua through his relationship to Ging, which is similar to Killua and Gon’s except that the power imbalance is more exaggerated. On the more theoretical side, I predict that what prompts Gon and Killua to truly air out their respective issues and begin working to improve their relationship will be the dramatic destruction of Kite and Ging’s, proving the consequences of allowing such issues to fester over time.

do y'all think that maybe killua loved illumi at all?
i wanna think that before the training started, maybe he did, probably thought he looked kinda weird but still loved him even tho he looked creepy
“first. he touches you and you light on fire. your wrist blazes where his fingers meet your skin. the burns don’t show, but it’s hard to breathe with ash in your lungs. it’s so hard to breathe. you’re suffocating daily. second. it hurts to watch him. he shines. he’s brighter than the sun, he’s too beautiful for your eyes. it’s hard to look at him. it’s even harder to look away from him. you’re going blind. third. your ears are tuned to his voice. you could pick him out in a sea of thousands. his voice makes pretty singers who sing pretty songs sound dull. his voice makes everything else sound ugly. fourth. the color of his eyes is blue enough to drown in. he is turning you into a clichéd love-wrecked being. you’re drowning, always sinking. down, down, down. fifth. you know him. you love him. through a thousand lifetimes, across millions of stars, you’d find him, you’d never leave him. you love him, till death do you part. ( sixth. he loves you, too. )”
