big fan of characters with abandonment + attachment issues so profound that they leave claw marks in everything they touch but would sooner gnaw off their own leg than admit they just want someone to stay for once. in a totally normal well adjusted and not at all projecting way of course.

big fan of characters who are always leaving. who constantly have a suitcase in their hand. characters who start planning their exit the moment they arrive and get nervous when the people in their lives start to Know them. in a totally normal well adjusted and not at all projecting way of course

Big fan of when these characters fall in love and there is one clawing and one leaving and they can’t say a damn thing about it until they realize they can ask someone to stay and they can stay and be Known and both can be safe like this. In a totally normal well adjusted and not at all projecting way of course.

i love tragic characters who get their whole world ripped out from underneath them and then completely fuck themselves and everyone around them over in the most violent unnecessary ways imaginable

ijust think its fun when a character loses something important to them and decides to kill people and then themselves about it

i have a lot of feelings about [guy] so i wanted to draw him but i dont really feel like drawing right now so i guess i'll just explode and die

having tortured ocs is so funny bc some of em im projecting personal issues onto & some of em im just like Fuck You. Random Chimp Event

There is something so beautiful about reaching out to the monstrous with intent to touch it gently. To risk the sharp teeth and the lethal claws, to defy fear and revulsion, and choose to be delicate with something that can be, and often is, incredibly brutal.

"it's okay, i can peel back the layers of you until i find the soft and gentle core of you you've had to work so hard to hide"? no. no, it's okay, i know you're hollow; i'm here anyway. you don't have to pretend it isn't masks the whole way down. whatever face you want to wear, i still love you. i don't need you to be good or unflinching or the antonym of violence. if i did, i wouldn't be here. i wouldn't ask that of you.

they are Cancelling me for dealing with my grief as best i can . also for the vicious war Crimes

see my thing is that when a character is revealed to have conflicting principles and actions and everyone’s like oh they are such a HYPOCRITE that’s BAD i’m inclined to think it makes them a better and funnier character. on account of my taste

love when fictional men are so devoted to their partner it makes them dangerous and insane. very slutty behavior keep it up king

hm so it turns out the love was there and it mattered so much that it saved them, actually! yeah actually they’re alive and well today. and the love is still there

there's something so compelling about stories where a character's virtues intensify into flaws that lead to their downfall. loyalty and love becoming so all-consuming that compassion outside of them ceases to exist. duty overwhelming any moral compass until order becomes more important than justice. selflessness so intense it becomes self-destruction. let me watch while whatever saved the hero in the beginning destroys them. let me see them fall to their own worst impulses disguised as what once made them good.

tortured. sickly. bisexual.
