getting a note on a super old post

[maya-tl]

thought this would be Interesting so

i'm not saying any of these movies are good. i just liked them enough to remember

decided to put these in a bit of a chronological order as i can’t help but form a story behind the scenes. it’s a storyteller’s habit. and yeah i do have an idea i would genuinely like to explore with gail simone as a crossover comic. 

i don’t want to be the writer for this. but at the same time i always found diving into these things and exploring the character chemistry was the best way to get an artistic feeling for it.

this is also how i usually develop my own stories.

anyhow, while many think this is me drawing some shipping, in fact this a proof of concept for an adventure story  featuring lara and diana. Gail simone at some point asked if they would kiss and i gave it some genuine thought. i am a character first kind of a writer, myself, so i contemplated this. then i decided, yes, probably.

after all, romantic subplots have been the bread and butter of adventure writing since its inception and i always liked that aspect of adventure stories.

 i hope this puts some things in context from my end XD

and while there will probably be a few more of these, there will be no nsfw pics. after all, camera pans away from indiana jones in those moments as well  XD

okay… there may be a chance of a kiss… but that’s about it.  (edit, i added the rest of them here along with the antagonist)

So, let me guess– you just started a new book, right? And you’re stumped. You have no idea how much an AK47 goes for nowadays. I get ya, cousin. Tough world we live in. A writer’s gotta know, but them NSA hounds are after ya 24/7. I know, cousin, I know. If there was only a way to find out all of this rather edgy information without getting yourself in trouble…

You’re in luck, cousin. I have just the thing for ya.

It’s called Havocscope. It’s got information and prices for all sorts of edgy information. Ever wondered how much cocaine costs by the gram, or how much a kidney sells for, or (worst of all) how much it costs to hire an assassin?

I got your back, cousin. Just head over to Havocscope.

((PS: In case you’re wondering, Havocscope is a database full of information regarding the criminal underworld. The information you will find there has been taken from newspapers and police reports. It’s perfectly legal, no need to worry about the NSA hounds, cousin ;p))

Types of brain fog:

Brain is primordial sludge & you are drowning in it

U are a ghost and nothing is real

Mental equivalent of attempting to stream some high-res video game when all you have is dial-up

The thing you want to articulate is *right there* but you're just scrabbling at it like a cat continually failing to catch the bird on the other side of the window

The Void

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

“I’ll just rest my eyes” is the biggest lie you’re going straight to snorkmimimi land

❝...that lament which is named Noldolantë, the Fall of the Noldor, that Maglor made ere he was lost.❞

In honor of @maedhrosmaglorweek Day 5: Artists, here's another photo of my Maglor cosplay from Dragoncon!

I love how I was able to capture Maglor's anguish as he painfully tells the story of his people's crimes. Yet for all his regrets, he can't seem to stop falling further into darkness, as Maedhros and their brothers are the only ones who remain always at their side....

This photo is one of my absolute favorites because of its expressiveness. I really enjoy bringing the stories of the Silmarillion to life through cosplay and I can't thank @camcammeii enough for her incredible direction during the shoot!

Cosplay made by @knights-of-beleriand, character design by me.
