Just walked in on my mom watching Merlin for the first time and was pumped she gave it a shot only for her to tell me she fast forwarded through some episodes because she just wants to see how it ends.
Now I‘ve got to suffer through the last two episodes with her CONSTANTLY asking questions about the plot because she was too lazy to actually watch it.
I‘m going to yell.
I just want to say it‘s so sweet how many of you gave me a warm welcome to the merlin fandom! Thank you so much guys, that‘s exactly the wholesome content i came here for (and I‘ll defo hit some of y‘all up for fic recs at some point lmao)
Discovering a fandom long after its original content released somehow feels like discovering an old religion believed to be dead, yet still thriving.
It's like an adventure.
Like when I started getting into Lord of the rings a year ago, or when I finished Merlin mere days ago I was bitter about not discovering them sooner, because I thought I'd missed the fandoms highs and everything left today would be crums of what it used to be, since their last content aired literally almost decades ago.
Yet when I look up fanfiction, fanarts or just the tags on tumblr I find their fandoms to be as alive the day the show finished.
It honestly feels like the closest I'll ever get to discovering a fantastical place like Atlantis or Kong Island or something like that and I think that's beautiful
Normally I wouldn‘t post wip‘s but I thought since it‘s Oikawa-san‘s birthday I might as well make an exception.
I‘m currently working on a series of casual-wear Haikyuu characters, but I don‘t want to post unless I‘ve got them all finished. Sooo... see this as a sneak peak I guess?
Iwachan athlete trainer ahhh ❤️❤️❤️
that scene in the finale of atla when zuko goes into irohs tent and starts giving him the long sad apology and blames himself but then iroh quickly cuts him off with a hug and they both cry is the most beautiful and touching scene in any piece of media Ever
So I found out that it’s Semis birthday today! That was such a good cause to draw him for the first time :D (Also I missed angel Yams birthday yesterday because of an important french test today and I’m in pain)
I can absolutely not believe my first ever gay ship is competing against one of my newest favourite gay ships in a final of gay ships.
I don‘t even mind who wins or looses, I‘m just absolutely delighted about who the finalists are lmaooo
(and not to mention - the man, the legend, Neil Gaiman himself commented on this makes this post certified iconic) lol that aged poorly af

Ok but Iwaizumi is such a legit ace.
Why:
1. Crazy awesome receives (those saves during the Karasuno match in season 2 where he was diving all over the court)
2. Vice captain: who even keeps the captain going (remember those end credits?)
3. Great serves: Ukai specifically said that they needed to limit Oikawa (who has the craziest serves) and Iwaizumi’s serves because they were so powerful
4. Keeps up the spirit of the team: when they lost a point but then he scored and told them that it nullified that lost point (then the coach said that he gave them back their fighting spirit)
5. only one who can keep Kyoutani in check (much to Oikawa’s chagrin)
6. Powerful spikes (on par with Japan’s top aces)
7. Technique/knowledge: when he spiked the ball between Koganegawa’s arms (like woah)
8. Motivational speeches: like the nullification one, but especially to Oikawa because his speeches always seem to flip a switch inside of him (the team with the better six is stronger…/someone who can’t see the opponent standing right in front of him..)
Something interesting I just realized, because I‘m experiencing it pretty badly at the moment:
It‘s hardly talked about, but once you are making noticable progress in your recovery from depression the damage it has done on your life really starts to kick in.
Suddenly you‘re more aware than ever how much work/social events/life in general you missed, because the question „Why did you achieve so little over the past couple of years?“ is absolutely inevitable and people will think that you were lazy during that time.
I think this is the most dangerous point of recovery for relapses, because whenever someone asks you what you did or didn‘t do while you were sick the realisation hits like a train.
Me saying this could definitely be regarded as pretentious, since I myself haven‘t exactly found a way to cope with this feeling, but I feel like it‘s very important to drown out those voices of „you didn‘t do anything“ „you were just lazy“ and „you‘re a complete failure, look at you“ with thoughts of „I survived.“ „I made it through“ „I managed not to let myself starve, I showered“ „I fed my pets/watered my plants regardless of how terrible I felt“
I‘m mainly saying this to myself in this post, but figured maybe this makes it onto the feed of someone who needs to hear this as well. Stay strong guys, we can get through this!

…
they were on a dinner date in that episode, right?
Yess!!
Like I‘ve had my moments questioning while watching Game of Thrones (Emilia Clarke) or the Avengers (Scarjo) but honestly? I‘ve never been actually too serious about it (I thought) before seeing Katie McGrath?
Just,,, Idek what she‘s doing to me, I suppose she has potential to become what Chris Hemsworth is to straight guys?? Or maybe I‘m just not straight in the first place LMAO
The fact that two girls can do basically anything with each other and not be considered gay is so distressing,,,like
I‘ve made out with at least 10 girls in my life time but I think I‘m straight…? But also girls are fucking gorgeous and oh my god and,,, am I maybe bi? am I lesbian? I‘m really fucking confused and I totally blame society for that
