This explains so much in these character’s relationships for sure!
Hayley ^_^
And I’m never letting either of you go.
EVER.
This is such a great project idea. What a excellent idea to help prevent self harm. The story that goes along with this particular butterfly is really heart squeezy too. I think I will do a support butterfly. That I’m aware of, no one I know self harms, but I know lots of people do and I hate the thought of that. Butterflies are a great symbol for this too.

I’m crying so hard right now guys, it’s taking a lot of effort to type properly, my vision’s all blurry from the tears and not wearing my glasses
This is my arm, covered in butterflies as part of The Butterfly Project. All are in various states of fading, except for that shiny new one, with the polka dots, which is why I’m crying.
I just got back from walking to Cosmo’s, a cafe near my house that I go to often. While I was sitting there, waiting for my drink, a man (who seemed maybe in his mid to late thirties, like 36 at the most) tapped my shoulder. I was already on-edge because I was by myself, something I don’t do often, so a strange man talking to me made me jumpy.
He had a serious look on his face, and he pointed to my arm. “Those butterflies on your arm. Are they for The Butterfly Project?”
Still flustered, and now embarrassed, I told him yes they were. “For yourself, or did you do them for your friend?” he asked. I told him that they were for myself.
“Can I sit?” he asked, and I said something like “Yeah, sure.” cause I was still all nervous and stuff
He then pulls a black Sharpie out of his pocket. “Would you please let me draw a butterfly on your arm?”
I almost started crying right there. A complete stranger wanted to give me a butterfly. I told him yes and gave him my arm, and he drew that beautiful polka-dotted butterfly right there.
I asked him how he knew of The Butterfly Project, and he told me this:
“I found out about it last year. My… My son committed suicide, because some kids at his school were bullying him because they found out he was gay. After that, I looked up as many suicide prevention and self-harm help things I could. I don’t want anyone to commit suicide or harm themselves for any reason.”
I didn’t know what to say- I’m not very god with words. I told him I was sorry that he had to lose his son like that, and I thanked him profusely for the butterfly.
We talked for a while about things; self-harm, homosexuality, bullying. When I had to go, I stood and he hugged me and said “I love you. Please, don’t ever harm yourself again. I know it’s hard, resisting the urge, but please stay strong for me.”
I had to bite my tongue to hold back the tears. I said I’d try my hardest, and he smiled and left.
I never asked his name. I wish I would have, because that man is one of the kindest, most beautiful souls I have ever met. I wish I could thank him again.
Oh my god, that is so beautiful…
This is the reason projects like this exist.
Okay I am actually crying now, fuck. People like that, random acts of kindness, are the one of the few things that make me feel good about this disgusting world.
Yes yes you Noxartemis awwww. The middle one made me chuckle though so it’s all okay. hee hee hee.
Hayley :D
Gee hee. I madez you sad with the last one.
For my little sister so it will be easier for me to show her it. She loves football!

forever reblog
This is a really nifty concept for a art instillation. Lovely work!

To Live On by Min Jeong Seo
“The stalks these flowers are already dried up but their blossoms are preserved and kept fresh by the medical infusion bags. The life-span of every living creature is limited.The infusion bags stand for the progress in medicine and the prolongation of human life.They somehow carry an ambivalent message as they refer to both death and life an the same time. Both states are immanent here. To preserve the beauty of the flowers artifically with the help of the infusion bags points out man’s inclination to repress the fact having to die and to postpone death.”
This made me smile ^_^. Congratulations to these two! Lol getting real tired of your shit.
Hayley :D
getting real tired of your shit
Aww kitty cat would like your attention, removal of glasses face snuggle!
Hayley :D
Now, this theory might be a little bit out there, but whenever I look at these panels, I always get this sneaky suspicion and ask myself if Casca might have known that she was pregnant at this point. She’s visibly upset about what had just happened in the wagon with Griffith, and she’s also making up her decision on whether to stay with Griffith or go with Guts, but Casca’s also holding her abdomen area. Knowing that she was carrying her lover’s child would have made her ultimate decision of staying with Griffith and telling Guts to proceed on his journey alone would have made it all the more heartbreaking for her (and, it would have made the events of the eclipse even more horrifying).
Now, one thing that could knock this theory down is that morning sickness doesn’t occur until a few weeks into gestation, and as far as we’ve known, Casca’s only been pregnant for about a week or so. Unless Miura was using an artistic license to excuse this, but we all know the answer to that:
On the other hand, if Casca was expecting her period around this time
and it’s so funny that her period hasn’t been used as a plot device since volumes 6 and 7and she missed it, then Casca could have at least been speculating the possibility that she was pregnant by putting two and two together after sleeping with Guts, so there’s that.In the end, I’m still going to make this face when reading volume 14:
D:
She knew….
She fucking knew…
When I made my MMV for Guts and Casca a little while ago. I noticed this stubble little panel, and I was like oh no, she at least had an inkling that she was pregnant. I think the original poster is right about it being to soon for morning sickness, but she may have missed her period by this point. Poor thing I feel so sympathetic for her. She caught between two men she has immense feelings for, and then discovering she’s pregnant by Guts and feeling she has to stay with Griffith gosh no wonder she cried. Casca really can’t catch a break, much like Guts.
Oh I love this piece, it has a really beautiful contrast and the little girls are so photogenic. As a species we humans do not vary much at all genetically, but it’s fascinating to see what environments can cause the human gnome to express. Lovely work here ^_^.
Hayley :D
Hee hee this is awesome! I’ve thought Griffith looked like a male Amalthea since the beginning and it’s only become more intense a resemblance since his rebirth lol. Oh my gosh it’s uncanny seeing a picture of them side by side. I love how Griffith’s Bishounen good looks are a part of his allure, but are a part of how destructive he has been or and maybe. His Bishounen is weaponized. As far as I’ve seen he’s the only example of Bishi in this way, although I could have just not seen or read another example, there’s so many anime and manga out there.
Hayley ^_^
guys is griffith a secret unicorn?
IS THAT WHY HE BROUGHT THEM BACK?
Welllllllllllllll, I actually had this theory that Griffith has a long lost twin sister who is going to turn out to being Fricka from Berserk The Prototype and she’s going to be the true Hawk of Light, making him the Hawk of Darkness the whole damn time.
But this uncanny resemblance (and the fact that there are fucking unicorns AND THEY’RE IN GREAT PERIL):
F Yeah! Wolf of courage! I love his “I got this!” attitude.
Hayley :D
This is so cool! I love the Dune Chronicles, I can imagine Frank Herbert had no room for anything else in his head there’s just so much to those stories!
Hayley ^_^
“…there was no room in my mind for concerns about the book’s success or failure, I was concerned only with the writing. Six years of research had preceded the day I sat down to put the story together, and the interweaving of the many plot layers I had planed required a degree of concentration I…
Oh my gosh the little Space Marine is awesome! The context with the other costumes makes me smile! XD
Hayley :D
Old but still the best costume I’ve seen in a hot minute.
He would or Deadpool would put him up to it. This is great! ^___^
Hayley XD
This made me giggle, a lot, the mid-transition is strangely fascinating. 0_o
Hayley ^_^
Whether it be fanfiction, original stories, drabbles, songs, poems, books, or anything that has to do with creative words, then reblog. Let’s gather all the writers of Tumblr together.
Yep! That I do!
this is literally the best post I’ve ever seen
The person in the box’s face when Miles says that there is no box…
Awesome. Fucking awesome.
