I had such a nice evening on the first of November. I was at one of the local cemeteries and watched as families lit the grave candles for their loved ones or placed grave candles in the remembrance garden. The sky was clear and as it got dark it went really quiet, you could see some flowers softly lit by burning candles. This peaceful atmosphere was perfect for remembering so that's what I did and then then I just watched, every one of those candles was a person once a person someone cares about. People create beautiful things when they care enough to remember so I hope everyone has someone to remember and someone who will remember them.
Bruce: Dick, this week, an aspect of training will be that you will need to adapt to sudden aereal acceleration and your task will be to initiate maneuvers for a safe landing facing the cause of it.
Alfred: Master Bruce?
Dick: What?
Bruce: I'll throw you around unexpectedly. You must not hit your head and land facing me. Can you do that, chum?
Dick: If I can? I got this! You could throw me in my sleep!
Alfred: Master Dick...!
Not to make it too angsty on this fine Thursday morning but I was thinking about how Bruce probably had to train Dick out of that performer's instinct to hit the landing, pause, and smile. Movement is life in Gotham, and while sometimes there is time to linger, it's never a given. Waiting for a reaction isn't always a luxury they have.
You need to already be planning your next move while you're in the air. You need to be comfortable with the fact that the ground might not be where you thought it was by the time your feet come down. Your enemy might not be where they were before you jumped. Your eyes should be on the threat at all times, and if that's not possible, you should be trying to land in a way that gives you the best vantage point when you're on solid ground again.
Dick getting thrown in that gifset is so fascinating to me. He's doing all those things in mid-air. He didn't expect to be thrown, but he didn't fumble the landing at all. He hit it, kept his head down low and safe, and took a breath while evaluating the situation calmly from afar. That kind of training doesn't happen overnight.

Will you be too scared to reblog this ? :D
1. Getting your self esteem from others.
2. Constantly attacking and putting yourself down.
3. Thinking that others are better than you.
4. Expecting things to not turn out well.
5. Living in the past.
6. Fearing the future.
7. Being afraid of change.
Well the giving roses to Juri was not nice gestures but a way to manipulate Juri so she would remember and resurface all the pent up anger she has against Shiori.
"Belive in miracles and they will know your feelings." Juri thinks that's just a load of bullshit. But that one rose Anthy gives her reminds her so strongly of the time she's been betrayed and on top of that Utena has to do something.
Naive uninformed Utena who reminds Juri of the way Shiori once was. It all drives her crazy until she can't find any other solution but to duel. I will not clarify what Juri duels.
My point with all this is that Anthy is the catalyst always have that in mind when watching this show.
All those little moments.
All those little joys Anthy took in life.
Humming to herself by the sink. Playing the piano to calm her nerves. Watching the metronome bounce back and forth for no reason. Randomly offering a flower to Juri because Juri was there. That cute little hand dance she did in episode 7. All the choices she made about what to say, about how to say it, about who to talk to. The lunch she shared with Wakaba and Utena for no reason.
They can’t all have been forced on her by Utena’s influce.
They can’t all be fake.
Can they?
I was a bit disappointed that Kuwabara wouldn't be there for the last arc brmecause he is the only one with some kind of emotional intelligence
I know Kuwabara won't do anything ever again after the whole Sensui arc but he should talk to Kurama cause he is the only one who can express emotions apparently
