Stevie Nicks, 1984.
this panel is so beautifully drawn. before this, the other panels are more zoomed in on the two of them, but this one takes quite a few steps back and they seem so small.
the way it shows tori so small immediately sent my brain to making a connection to how she might feel alone in this because she doesn’t have many/any people to talk to who will understand aspec identities in general (PLEASE GO BECOME BEST FRIENDS WITH ALED PRETTY PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU-), and her and charlie are the only two in the panel, alone in the world. there’s so many other people there but they’re separated. just like there’s so many people in the lgbtqia+ community but aspec people often feel set apart and are often less understood or less accepted overall.
not to mention how the speech bubble is (proportionally) so large in this panel compared to the others. this is like, woah, it’s a scary thing to say, but you said it. and they’re at the top of the ferris wheel and the climax/breaking point of their conversation. tori figured herself out, she knows that she’s ace, and i have a feeling telling this to charlie is so freeing to her and takes such a weight off of her chest.
I JUST THOUGHT OF THIS WHILE TYPING - the two birds in the top corner are little bits of tori and charlie. one of them is the weight lifted from tori, she’s letting it go, setting it free, and the other is a bit of charlie going with that bird to help it and guide it through the sky to a safe place, he’ll help her feel safe and loved no matter what. i love them so much.

i don’t want to be a hater but some of you guys are really boring with your ships. ‘oh i can’t ship that it’s too unhealthy’ skill issue
you can pry happy endings from my cold-dead hands. It can be the most heart stopping, gut wrenching fic that has every existed and I will read every drop of it if I get my happy ending. I have had enough painful endings in real life, give me happy in my fantasy world. It can be at the last second, it can be a single sentence, even a single word. Give me all the angst and hurt in the world for 500,000 words, but please give me the comfort I need in the ending. please and thank you.
i hate hate hate HATE the interpretation of magnus as a “soft boi uwu” just because he’s a healer. that man is an absolute menace to society and does not get enough credit for all the problems he causes.
someone: hey can you give me some relationship advice?
me who's aroace: communicate.
someone: I tried but it didn't-
me: break up. /hj
The sad thing with my allo friends is that they think that romantic love is the strongest love possible. And maybe it is for them. But I feel like they'll never understand how strong platonic love can be. They'll never know how much I like them. Because they're convinced that, because I'm aroace, I'll always like them less than their partner, when, in fact, I just like them differently.
