Pics that make you smile. KZN
Hullo, /c/. I've been having a rather crummy and upsetting day/week. I won't go into why unless someone asks/wants to know (because even on /c/ there are a few assholes from /b/ that will give people crap for talking about their personal life/issues.)

But in any case, it is because of my current state that I come to you today asking for pictures that usually cheer you up or make you smile when you're down. I'll post a few of my favorites.

Anyway, fanart of couples from games/anime/manga I love ALWAYS makes me happy. Uhh that and Legend of Mana is just awesome.

I'd like to know what's made you feel so bad, but it's up to you to talk about it! I've always really appreciated your contributions to /c/, so I hope my bad taste in happy things cheers you up a bit.

Well, I don't mind talking about it--I just didn't want people giving me a bunch of crap about "this isn't live journal" or something...but since you asked, I'll gladly tell you.

Basically...my older brother left yesterday to go on a trip halfway across the country, and he's going to be gone for at least a month (depending on how things go, he may never come back home.) It may seem weak, but he's always been two steps away from me for my entire life; the longest he's ever been away from home is 10 days when he was in Japan about a year ago. He's going to miss my 19th birthday, too. So, basically I don't get to see him for a really long time and I'm gonna miss him. A lot. (When he took off, I was crying like a baby. I'm such a pussy...)

Not only that, but because of his absence, I might not be able to see/hang out with someone who I really, really want to see... Anyways, sorry for blabbing so much. That's basically it in a nutshell...

My brother up and left and didn't tell anybody so...I kinda know how you feel, but when it happens this way there's that sting of betrayal and abandonment as well...Even though I never really liked him all that much, still family isn't supposed to do that.

Meh, don't worry about disgruntled anons. They're a dime a dozen and they usually move on once they know they aren't gonna get a rise out of anyone. Anyway, I understand how you feel. I used to be really close with my older bro (I mean I practically looked up to him as a father figure), but he eventually moved away for his own reasons. It hurt me a lot at first, but it's just something you have to deal with I suppose. Just try to keep in contact with him if you can and that other person if at all possible. I don't think you're a pussy for crying about it. There's nothing wrong with feeling the way you do and having a close relationship with someone you love.

Enough with my babbling and more Legend of Mana, yay!

Thanks...it's nice to know other people understand... But yeah, we're really close...so it feels rather...empty, without him. But he's not really ready to leave home for good either, even if he wants to, I think. He's still a kid, in my opinion. Not too mature. He makes me worry about him. :(

I get that sentiment, the fact my brother's a dad scares me to death; because I think of all the shit he put me through and the fact I had to get stitches due to him so many times...I'm worried for my nephew I've never seen.

Wow...I could never imagine my brother as a parent. (Although one of his friends has a baby and his wife is apparently pregnant again, they think. I can only facepalm, because this dude can't support his wife and baby currently.)

Nope; it's like an RPG law. The main character draws the hots from nearly all female characters, good or evil. Honestly. It's true. If you're a secondary character, good f'in luck. Or your Junepi and have that wondrous adventure (not going further since that'd be a /b/ move).

OP, I can't really relate to you because I never knew my brothers growing up (previous marriage, 15 years older, etc...), but things'll be OK. Promise.

Even if he never comes back home, you can always go visit him. It may be a few months, or even a year before you see him again. But I'm sure you'll see him again! And remember, you can always call him, email him, talk over webcams/mics. I know it hurts at first, but the pain'll go away. Promise.

Aww, that's a really nice quote...I should print it out and hang it on my wall.
>>699448
Thanks...I was talking to him over Google Talk today. He sounds depressed, though. There's a girl up there who he likes, and apparently she turned him down. He keeps saying he's going to kill himself now. He's most likely exaggerating, but it still worries me. This was one of the reasons I didn't want him to go...he has always had a problem with depression, and on several occasions he's said he's contemplating suicide. But now he's hundreds of miles away; I can't be there to take the lighter out of his hands when he tries to light himself on fire... I just hope he doesn't do anything foolish.

Depression is pretty hard on everybody involved I've come to realize having a slight case of clinical depressions. But, yeah, I dated a suicidal psycho bitch. She treated me horribly and I stayed with her out of pity...So, I don't know how it feels to be in that mind frame, but I gotta say dealing with it everyday was tiring.

Hmm since I don't know much about him, I can't really say if it's a good or bad thing that he's on his own at the moment. I've delt with depression my entire life and it might help him to get some counseling and perhaps some medication. It's helped me a lot, but depression is the type of thing that will always be with you. It CAN be managed, which is the most important thing of all.

It may or may not be a good thing he didn't get involved with that girl, but who knows. I've broken up with people to spare them having to deal with my problems and to let myself grow as a person, but having a loving relationship can also help. It honestly just depends on how well he got along with her. Anyway, sorry for the rambling. Just be sure to let him know that he'll always have someone that's there for him and loves him just the way he is.

Yeah, I believe the girl who turned him down was holding back on being direct with him because she didn't want to upset him...but he ended up asking her directly and well...apparently he's outta luck.
>>699932
Oh god, that was so cute...fukken bookmarked.
>>699936
I don't think he should be on his own yet...he doesn't eat enough because he's worried he doesn't have the money for food, and he keeps saying he;s going to check out of the hotel he's at and go sleep in his car...which probably isn't a good idea (heats up fast, no bed, he's not exactly staying in a good area of town...) He's just not mature enough and I think it helps him somewhat to be around his family+friends down here...

But I think in some ways it's good that he didn't get involved with the girl...he's more likely to come home that way. I just hope he'll hold out ok until he decides to come back.

I wish I had the rest of this doujin. Basically, Shirou does "Unlimited Saber Works" and summons a bunch of hot, cute versions of Saber (Maid, Bunnysuit, Glasses-girl, etc.) to distract Gilgamesh while the real Saber moves in and knocks him out. Then.... this happens.

Yeah, when it gets to the point where you have to sleep in your damn car, it's time to come home. Knowing that, I definitely have to agree that it's a good thing he didn't get mixed up with her. I hope he decides to come home and that it isn't too hard on you.

Yeah...I tried talking to him a bit earlier over GT but he's not responding much, so he's probably busy, so I don't know...but I hope he's still staying in the hotel...because if not, he's in his car, and he's a stubborn motherfucker so no amount of reasoning will convince him that it's better to come home if he doesn't have a -real- place to stay.

Glad to hear I'm appreciated.

But yeah, often HE ends up calling us when he doesn't know what to do, he's lost when he's driving, can't remember a phone #, stupid things like that. He has my mother on the phone almost constantly some days...I think he's a lot less ready to be out there on his own than he himself knows.
