"Imagine still posting fanart a whole year after the game came out" brother what are you talking about

It’s incredibly important to me that the anime decided to include this scene that wasn’t in the manga. In the manga, Maomao does pass out in Jinshi’s lap after saving him from what was obviously an assassination attempt.

HOWEVER, the manga cuts off at this point, keeping strictly in Maomao’s perspective, and cuts straight to when she regains consciousness in bed after being treated for her injuries. The manga doesn’t show how she got back. They SAY how, and she briefly mentions, “wow that must have been embarrassing; he carried me back,” but we don’t SEE it. We don’t get to feel the true impact of what that means. But the anime DID show us, and holy shit.

They SHOW us how taboo this is. They show Jinshi carrying her out of the temple, after a public attempt on his life.

They show us the shock and horror on Lakan’s face as Jinshi silently walks past him. Horror at the state his daughter is in, horror at another man—a man with a status he could never dare to question—staking such a public claim over his child, horror at the fact that he could never have this level of closeness with her (as Maomao would never allow it).

Everyone hides their gazes, as is their custom when someone of his rank passes by, but the air is different this time. Jinshi is furious, he’s terrified, and he could not give a single shit about how inappropriate it looks to these palace officials.

The shot that slowly follows her trail of blood—even though it’s a small detail—that in particular leaves such a intense impression of how poignant this is for him.

Maomao talked about this scene in the manga like it was nothing to her. She did what she set out to do: she saved the person who was targeted by the attack. She didn’t even know the target would be someone she knew. But she has no idea that this happened afterwards as a result of her bravery. To her, it likely wasn’t even an act of bravery at all. She acted on impulse; she did what she knew was the right thing to do.

The anime didn’t need to include this, because the manga didn’t show it. But damn, I’m so glad they did.

So, turns out when my mum was visiting my dad whilst he was working overseas in America in 1998, the Star Trek experience was going on whist they were visiting Los Vegas and my mum told my dad; "If we get married at the Star Trek Experience, I will only do it if Jean-Luc Picard slash Patrick Stewart officiates."

Was at my grandparents house watching a movie with my cousins when they both started watching videos, no headphones.

We failed as a society when everyone stopped wearing headphones.

Okay, so I was going to do a medic TF2 sketch, and I made this. I can’t stop staring at his tits.

GOOD AFTERNOON.

Good afternoon!

The doctor's fatal flaw is that they can't stop falling in love.

Someone is getting a tarot reading and the first card is Death

The person doing the reading explains that death is usually a metaphor, and refers to a large change

The second card is The Tower

They explain that the tower often refers to tragedy when asked if that means death they say it can but doesn't always

The third card is Someone Is Actually For Real Going To Die
