On a cheerier subject matter than the dumpster's fire that's my IRL situation, can someone tell me why the author decided to name two characters who appear together often Seiken and Suikan???

Even if the kanji are very different, sound-wise they're just way too close!! Why??? Why?????????

Not going to go into details but things are Royally Sucking IRL

Just... The comfort of getting some actual good news in the middle of this horrible mess is kind of overwhelming. I'm so tired...

Junco Couple Chat!

Another iconic bird--this one of bird feeders and front yards, the dark-eyed junco! This little junco couple is having a cute conversation over some winter berries.

This is part of a weekly bird challenge with @elleskinner-justart and @elizabethpatricianart so check out theirs, too!

In my shop!

ah yes. the classic "I can't sleep because it will be tomorrow in an instant and tomorrow requires things of me and I Simply Do Not Vibe With That". so I'll go through said tomorrow on 2 hours of sleep. very smart and once again no lessons will be learned

FMA is fascinating because there aren't many works about what it means to be an atheist and a heretic to a god that you can not only see, but who has personally snatched body parts off of your living body and made fun of you for it.

The curse of people being actually interested in reading the stuff so I can't spoil them to death so I have an outlet </3

I still believe that for something to really grip fandom creators it can only be like. 60-70% good.

The writing, concept, and/or characters have to be there. But there has to be a flaw that requires transformation. Maybe a character arc is fumbled, or there’s scenes that we don’t see or a relationship that’s only implied. Maybe it gets cancelled too early!

It obviously can’t just be bad. If the characters don’t feel compelling, or the setting just isn’t exciting, people aren’t going to latch on.

But it also can’t be too good! If there’s no space for discovery, what’s the point of the transformation! It already does everything you could want! The only people who can create there are gif makers if it’s a visual medium, but even then if it’s perfectly shot and coloured why would they want to?

The struggle of wanting to scream about Asebi stuff but what if one of you actually *reads*/watches the stuff. That lady is a walking spoiler.

I still have so many feelings about the Ukigumo short story too. Like mother, like daughter...
