I feel profoundly called out omg
Just starting my staycation and trying to get my marbles together after losing them daily for the past half a year.
I can't believe it's August already.
I will draw again, I promise. Thank you to everybody who is patient with me

Just because someone can talk themselves into believing they consent to being enslaved, doesn't mean they're not in an abusive setting.
That's not consent. That's selling yourself to someone and giving up your autonomy.
You can't consent when you don't have a choice.

OOOOH.
Well then that might be the only ever situation I will utter those words, so mark the moment as once in a lifetime event:
I'm glad Halsin was there to pull you back. And in his real, not-dreamt form.
There's more to be said about imperfect being most important.

Oh so now there's two others instead of me. Feeling like a true priority right after everything else.
Alright. Alright. I see.

And he tries his best, bless his heart. Last time he said "thank you for not quitting yet" which was both hilarious and heartwarming.

Also taking credit for forcing your mind to confront you with the real Halsin

Might be pointed to Republicans. Trying to not offend them by using words they don't understand, without recognizing they're "big words" to ease their potential intellectual insecurity

Rosie O'Donnell called him king Joffrey and that's spectacularly on point. Her whole response to him is amazing

Listen I get it and I wouldn't dare to school you on anything. I just think compliments are here to make someone feel special, otherwise it's just talking
I think
Like sometimes I don't even ask for feedback at work, I just tell my boss "you can praise me now" as I send him my project lmao

As in i'm not saying you were rude, I get it, I love his James Dean style wrinkles too. Like drink me flat like a caprisun daddy.
But we never know where someone's insecurity lay, and he just had a mirror in hand so

I think that's because it's a backhanded compliment. "I like your signs of aging" unprompted sounds kinda rude.
Like I'd be mad too. I don't see wrinkles on my face, so someone complimenting them would sound a little pointed. Like what do you mean, I'm not your doting grandmother???

I actually think it's genuine. Half of him would probably prefer his juice box to be dead to keep his secret, but half was scared what would happen if they figured out it's him who killed their leader.
I also think he was scared whoever's close to him ends up dead even without Cazador.

I understand it, and I agree they're just fuckers all around, full scale.
But speaking of caring for common good first, I do think there's some validity, if not responsibility, to care for your close one first, especially when children are involved. I've been abandoned before for "higher purposes".

And I don't blame him one bit for falling for someone who would. And be ready to offer the world once he found it, only to have this person stay by his side. For it to last as long as it can, even if he later admits he was just counting days, convinced it's too perfect to happen and stay anyway.

We all want to feel safe when talking to a loved one without getting hurt, even accidentally. I think that's very important and plays a major role in overall feeling of safety and support. Hearing jabs and/or not being understood without words is just tiresome and lonely.

After time I noticed that's his way of dipping the toes into possibility of having tag/durge as a friend. See if his sense of humour fits with theirs, if they like him enough to engage in little discussions. If they're kind enough to banter and not be rude. Eg. talking about his mole

Mmm that's flirt for sport. It's not about the words, it's about playing the game. Same with the hypothetical question about biting someone

Ahhh yes... I just had the mirror moment in camp and hearing his purring voice... They say cats purr have the healing frequency, linked to calming down anxiety & even faster body healing.
Astarions purrs have frequencies that heal my heart. Simply as is.

When you put something at the end of the priority list, you're no longer prioritizing it ahahahha
I'm gonna use it now, saying "of course it's a priority, right after everything else"

Wait I thought it was gonna be about empathy with no regards for one's well being?
