I was still babbling when Boris said: “Potter.” Before I could answer him he put both hands on my face and kissed me on the mouth. And while I stood blinking — it was over almost before I knew what had happened <…> We stood looking at each other — me breathing hard, completely stunned. “Good luck,” said Boris. “I won’t forget you.” Later — in the cab, and afterward — I would replay that moment, and marvel that I’d waved and walked away quite so casually. Why hadn’t I grabbed his arm and begged him one last time to get in the car, come on, fuck it Boris, just like skipping school, we’ll be eating breakfast over cornfields when the sun comes up? I knew him well enough to know that if you asked him the right way, at the right moment, he would do almost anything; and in the very act of turning away I knew he would have run after me and hopped in the car laughing if I’d asked one last time. But I didn’t. And, in truth, it was maybe better that I didn’t — I say that now, though it was something I regretted bitterly for a while. More than anything I was relieved that in my unfamiliar babbling-and-wanting-to-talk state I’d stopped myself from blurting the thing on the edge of my tongue, the thing I’d never said, even though it was something we both knew well enough without me saying it out loud to him in the street — which was, of course,
I LOVE YOU.

I spent Christmas Eve for drawing a long-haired man and, in general, beautiful Neji from all sides. :)

i just realized a similarity between jayce & jinx (and someone can correct me on this), but they both have been shown to have mental issues, hearing voices telling them what they should do and that are bothering them.
however, we never hear the voices of their partners. jinx never hears the voice of ekko when things are too bothersome for her. jayce never hears viktor’s voice in that cave.
and ekko and viktor literally kept them from falling off the edge. they reminded jayce & jinx of what they dreamed of since they were little (viktor renewing jayce’s passion for creating magic, ekko reigniting jinx’s dream of riding on one of those airships). it really does just take one person to care and jinx and jayce had that person be there for them at their lowest, and still deemed them beautiful.
bringing this one back because I just watched episode 107 and I’m having ✨feelings✨

I was having fun looking up what anime character’s names mean but this one just made me sad.
"Came back wrong" trope but actually the character came back right. A character who, when they were living, hid and changed so many parts of themself around others to appease them and, when they died and came back, they stopped doing so and started living as who they always have been. But everyone thinks they came back wrong because of how different they are

AFO doesn't have friends he has pawns. What AFO sees as "Friends" are those who owe him their gratitude and their lives because he gave them a quirk which is why he's underestimating both the LOV and the UA students because what they have is something he can't begin to comprehend and that's true friendship.
bonus points if the introverted one is super idealistic and has strong morals while the bright positive one is actually somewhat crazy and dark underneath 😌
no you dont get it the best dynamic characters can have is one of them being bright with high energy and constant positivity and the other one is an introverted somewhat quiet one who is drawn to the energetic one and they both think rhe world of each other and show it in different ways

I’m not afraid to die! I’d do anything to get you humans out of my forest!
