Beware!

[leimarus]

I often forget COD exist so when i hear my friends talk about playing it, Im a lot more confused than I should be.

forgot call of duty existed and for one glorious split second this was the funniest youtube comment i'd seen in my life

[leimarus]

What have I really been up too? Well, I’m not too sure honestly. Binging Tv, working, and some side piece names Sukuna.

[leimarus]

...what

[leimarus]

Mareep is a great alternative consideringimg you could try to conduct electricity with it. :)

psyduck is probably like. the most achievable pokemon probably. like i don’t think i could teach a cabbage to grow legs and be a bulbasaur but there’s probably a certain threshold of mental torment i could subject a duck to that would make a psyduck

[leimarus]

I laughed way too hard at this

I saw your recent ask about describing character design and I was wondering how you would do that for clothes, especially high detail garments and accessories.

Tips on How To Describe Clothing

1.  Don’t Go Overboard

Over-describing clothing can get in the way of the flow of your scenes, so keep it short and sweet.

Do your readers really need to know what each of the five rings your character is wearing looks like? 

Do they really need to know that your character’s jeans have exactly five rips in them or that they’re wearing this very one specific Gucci shirt that you saw online and are now describing in depth for no reason?

You don’t have to info-dump everything about a character’s outfit the moment they walk in, because being completely honest, your narrator probably won’t notice all that stuff right off the bat. Stick to the basics and defining features for the first look, and you can always sprinkle in descriptions during the dialogue.  

2. Clothing can help the readers get to know your character: Make It Count!

Saying that a character walks in wearing jeans and a T-shirt doesn’t say all that much about them. I mean, you can infer some things, but it’s pretty basic and could be worn by anyone. Clothing is an excellent way to show and not tell your audience about your character, and you should utilize it to the fullest!

Take this example:

A character walks in. She has eight studs in each ear, holographic Doc Martens, ripped jeans, and a T-shirt with some obscure band logo on it. The shirt is discolored in places from when she’d spilled bleach and tried to use her black hair dye to re-stain it.

Before she’s even opened her mouth, you already have a good idea of what this character is going to be like in a matter of two sentences. Readers can piece together assumptions about a character just by their outfit alone, and it can save you a whole lot of time later.

Things you can describe about an outfit that can help give it personality:

Certain logos or patterns

The color

The condition (stains, rips, frays, etc.)

The style (Doc Martens and leather jackets to go for a more grunge/goth/punk aesthetic, loose-fitting sweaters and glasses for academia, sweatpants and sweatshirts for people who don’t care much for the status quo, etc.)

The fit (loose, tight, etc.)

Self-alterations (ie T-shirt cut sloppily into crop top, jeans rolled up, addition of pins/patches/paintings, etc.)

3. Setting Counts!

A character that lives in Minnesota isn’t going to go strutting around in booty shorts and a tank top in the dead of winter. 

Someone from a different country may not wear the same things as people in America. 

People from cities may be more fashion-forward, while people from the country choose their fashion more based on usefulness. 

People from different time periods will wear different clothes depending on gender presentation, social class, and country of origin—so research accordingly!

Scene-by-scene setting also counts! 

If a character walks into an important meeting in pajamas, it’ll tell the readers a lot about who they are as a person, so dress your character accordingly for every situation. Do they not care about how they look, or are they very dress to impress for every possible occasion?

4. Stick to What Your Narrator Knows

You might’ve researched all different kinds of fabric and styles from around the world, but unless your character is a cultural anthropologist or a fashion major, they probably won’t know what you know!

Will your character who lives off the land, has no internet, and hasn’t gone to school since the 60s really know what chiffon is, or will they just say “translucent mesh fabric”? 

Will your character who doesn’t normally don feminine clothing know what an A-line drop hem fit and flare dress is? Will your character know the minute technical details of clothing from different countries or cultures?

The chance is that they won’t, so don’t try to dump all your research onto your readers: some of them might not know these things, either!

I hoped this helped, and happy writing!

I always wondered what bakugou would think, what he would look like when he saw deku fights. Like when deku gives his all just to protect someone and.. this chapter showed it. This chapter showed bakugou’s pov.

Bakugou is worried and afraid because of Deku’s Selflessness.

Bakugou knows because he’s been there. He knows because he saw.

How pure deku’s heart is…

And how deku would do anything to save���.

Even if it destroys him…
