: an emotional landslide :

For the most part, I was pretty fking pleased with Detective Pikachu, and Pikachu was just so adorable-- like oh my gosh, how is such cuteness even possible? (yes, I will have an icon of pikachu, I promise)-- and now the next movie to see is Aladdin. Like, I have really mixed feelings about the reboot, I mean I loved the original but when it comes down to it, I'm way more looking forward to Lion King coming out soon-- I will go to Aladdin on principle (it's disney, how can I not?) BUT I guess I will see when I see, I just think it is important to keep a potentially open mind, I may after all enjoy it, just the trailer left me kinda 'meh'-- I didn't say "I AM TOTALLY GOING TO SEE THAT", more like "well I guess I will go see it because it's Disney"

I certainly didn't tear up like I did when I saw the preview for the Lion King.

Can we talk about the "What is Snow"? episode from the new Fruits Baskets episode? Like, I warned my husband that I would cry-- but I didn't quite know how much until yesterday when the water works just started to flow, gosh darn it-- I love Hatori, can't wait to see his story get closure in this new Fruits Basket retelling.

Occasionally my brain will attach to my Chrono Trigger retelling-- the premise is of course Queen Zeal fucking with time, and there are characters that naturally occur-- like Queen Zeal doing everything to make things difficult for her children. It's a cross over in a way as it involves characters from other series that I've managed to intertwine-- but it also involves original characters-- and it involves a highly involved, not very close to reality Magus Zeal (understand this, and quite honestly don't care)-- well okay, well I still consider him in character still as long as he maintains certain key elements like his standoffishness-- but he does have a few close friends that get sucked in to the same temporal vortex as him, because I like to add an aspect of humanity to him). A character that pops up is Cid from FFXIV, because I've taken to pairing him with Schala Zeal-- like, I know that it's totally random BUT IN MY HEAD IT MAKES TOTAL SENSE and that's all that matters right? (besides visually, Cid and Schala would make a very visually stunning couple-- and I'm all about those aesthetics)

And in the past month, two more characters entered the vortex and made it convincing me how they fit into the entire spanning storyline-- like, I guess I used to have a muse town with another person, but I suppose in the interim, this is my way of making my own muse town, of relying on myself.

Alright time to do some grinding in FFXIV now! <3 Hope y'all have a lovely weekend!

Yes! Hatori is a wonderful character and furuba is making me so excited! Like so many really heart warming moments

I have mixed feeling about Aladdin too. I'm sure it'll be enjoyable, but can't go in expecting it to be anything near the same. That's going to be hard.

I ave mixed feelings on Aladdin too. I loved the original, but so far I can't bring myself to be overly excited about the trailers like I am when I see The Lion King ones.

Have a good weekend! ♥

I almost cried during the Furuba episode too, but I have a lot of trouble watching it in general--a lot of the way that Tohru (and Kana, in this episode) behaves reminds me of the way that schoolpsychnerd behaved, and well.

I'm glad you liked Detective Pikachu! I'm going to see if I can see it sometime this week. The rave I went to on Friday had some music from the movie mixed in and it got me excited again.

Yeah, well I know that feeling quite well. me, llike you, have attached characters to representations of people that I have dated and left me somewhat scarred, I'm trying to get better at it but it's still a struggle to do so. Luckily furuba holds no real attachment for me in terms of my Jennie-era of life, but I know that I have some personal hangups still involving characters that I associate with her, even though I don't want to. -_-

Oh man, the Fruits Basket remake is out now? I need to look that up....
