I'm re-reading Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters for book club, and there should really be a truly epic saga about The Friendship Of Gytha and Esme, Young Witches Who Absolutely Shouldn't Get Along But Do, Shockingly (Even If Sometimes There are Minor Natural Disasters Because There Has Been A Row)
#the scene where they get into a snarly fight because the country is poisoning them against each other?#and then the scene where granny is SO pissed off that magrat and nanny have to wrestle her down#and as the trees start to shake and the wind picks up - nanny slaps her.#that is friendship.#I would love to read about how it started.#how esme (thinner than a hat rack and easily offended as a cat; charging after every scrap of knowledge she can find)#met gytha (curvy as a road through the ramtops and biddable - as long as you suggested what she wanted to do anyway)#and they ended up getting along - more than getting along. being....friends?#even when gytha was more mother than maiden and esme was mumblemumble#they were friends.#discworld

Bowser : why is Green Mario here ?? I didn't kidnap anyone this week ! Won't you pests leave me alone ?? You have a death wish or what, you wimpy little-
Luigi, scruffed by the collar : ah, I'm-I'm-I'm here for the job offer actually.
Bowser : what job offer ??
Luigi : *holds up an ad for a croupier job*
Kamek : that tracks, Sire, the casino is hiring these days.
Bowser : You ?? A dealer in MY casino ?? Since when do you that ??
Luigi, shrugging : it's-a been a while but I used to do that as a side job during my studies. I saw the ad, got nostalgic, and-
Bowser : Pah !! As if I would hire you ! I'm NOT gonna let you turn my casino into a joke ! Bet you can't even hold a deck properly !
Luigi, glaring : bet I can beat you at any card game.
Bowser, too vexed to think : DEAL !
*
Bowser, 2 hours later : ...what just happened.
Kamek : you promised him the job if he beat you, Your Baffledness.
Bowser : HOW IS HE THAT GOOD ?? He must have cheated!! I can't give him the job !!
Kamek : Sire, you gave your word-!
Bowser, grinning devilishly : he wants to work for me ? Oh, is he gonna love his new job...
#super mario bros#miscellaneous mario madness#bowuigi#sorta ?#i just listened to that world 8 theme in 3D world and it slaps#but also made me think of Luigi's casino gig#anyway Bowser keeeps trying to find out how Luigi cheats. except he never does.#Luigi is still a nervous mess outside of a poker table but when he sits down he gets in the zone#dealer Luigi in Bowser's casino AU

I love how much Lucullus can't stand Pompey, and also this
Pompey the Great: A Political Biography, Robin Seager
with something from this thrown in for extra flavor
Crassus and Pompey, on the other hand, ridiculed Lucullus for giving himself up to pleasure and extravagance, as if a luxurious life were not even more unsuitable to men of his years than political and military activities.
Plutarch, Lucullus

#there were going to be more citations for fun and whimsy but the laptop im borrowing can't handle running any kind of applications#right now and ctrl+f searching in a browser/webpage is also taking quite literally forever so I'm DONE for tonight. i need#to lay face down on the floor and scream for a minute#whining aside. i was watching etiquette for mistresses because i thought it was going to be something else than what it ended up being#but the title slaps and im thinking. hmmmm. thoughts. sulla's nightmare collection of fucked up guys. as a kabitserye type thing#which i will be fully honest. kind of doing that anyway. but i mean REALLY lean into it. embrace it.#they would all be SO awful it would be SO good. 200 episode drama material#komiks tag#lucius licinius lucullus#marcus licinius crassus#gnaeus pompeius magnus#roman republic tag#drawing tag#tris homines#ACTUALLY ANOTHER UNRELATED THING. pompey's whole thing about trying to get the upperhand over crassus#but when milo kills clodius he throws out milo. which honestly. that's about other things. but still! symbolically! it's something!#i'll unravel that thought later

i kinda don’t get people who characterize maccready as like… secretly generous, or having a heart of gold or anything. like don’t get me wrong i don’t think he’s downright malicious or anything, but the dude is absolutely a selfish jerk once you get past the charming facade. that’s the part that’s compelling!
like, he’s nice enough and open enough with the player once you get high enough affinity with him, but his reactions to player actions still point to him being a jerk overall. the sosu just happens to be in His Circle of people he can be vulnerable with. that includes you, his son, and maybe daisy. everyone else can kick rocks, the same way it was in little lamplight
he HAD to grow up with that kind of “us vs the world, every man for himself” mentality in the capitol wasteland. doing so otherwise gets you killed or taken advantage of, which is just protracted death anyways. having grown up in a place where slavers run rampant, people are all pushing each other further down just to boost themselves up and live one more day, and it’s literally impossible to make renewable food sources because the ground is so poisoned i genuinely don’t blame him for ending up a little tight fisted. the fact that he was the mayor of little lamplight just meant that he ended up being able to accept a few people as His To Protect instead of being a total lone wolf.
the way he reacts to the players open generosity isn’t just for show, he Actually Dislikes when you give stuff away without expecting anything in return. you might need that thing and now its just gone!! that person might see you as a sucker! you give an inch and they’ll take a mile! and it makes sense for his character to be like that considering everything. i don’t get why people want to change that into him just being kind of tsundere.
i understand that having your babygirl blorbo comfort character be a canonical asshole in ways that aren’t just kinda charming can be offputting, but like…. the way he treats the sosu is a very notable exception to the rest of his life & it’s a much more interesting dynamic imo. especially if you’re playing a goody two shoes martyr. but that’s just me
#robert joseph maccready#i also have come to the realization that him disliking when you give austin the cure in v88 is in character#he doesn’t know shit about how medicine works#he just sees some magical cure being used on a random sheltered vault kid who got himself into this mess anyways#meanwhile *his son* is suffering#i also think his disdain towards being generous is because of the ‘if i can’t have it no one can’ mentality#similar to how astarion acts in bg3#maccready didn’t have any help as a kid. he went through it all by himself. he had to suffer alone#seeing someone get treated with kindness after spending his whole life getting beat down#to the point where he just convinced himself that good people were made up entirely#it’s like a slap to the face#‘you mean this existed the whole time? people like YOU have been out here the whole time? and i was just unlucky?’ etc#idk i took two benadryls and now im cooking#not art

As a Kakyoin fan and artist, I'm doing my part in giving him a part 4 design 🫡 (OG ask) Throwing my headcanons at you and hitting you square in the face
Ramble under the cut
Noriaki is a successful gallery artist living with his "roommate" on Florida's Gulf Coast (I think the Tampa Bay area, specifically Bradenton, FL). They have a small bungalow near the water, Perfect for them, their office/studios, Jotaro's fish tanks, and Jolyne when she comes from her mother's during the holidays or for summer break. Jotaro is definitely a boat guy they have theirs parked on the side of the house and take it for a spin over at least once a month (or once a week when Jolyne is with them over the summer)
He still does missions for the SWF with Jotaro, but his day job is his art. He works in an abstract/contemporary style and his pieces are large and textural. Jotaro doesn't really get it but still supports his partner, Jolyne loves them though.
Also, he and Jotaro have matching wedding rings: platinum bands with emerald Inserts.
#I miss him#Oh my god they were roommates#I know the common headcanon is that Jotrao lives in Miami#But ive lived in Miami and he would hate it here#Its too loud and crowded down here#I think he would like living in the Tampa Bay Area more I feel in in my gut as a fellow Floridian#Also Its always weird for me to see my home town come up in a fic its like a slap in the face#like have they smelled the weed in bayside have they they been to palacio de los jugos have they been stuck in traffic on the 836 expresswa#Have they gotten lost in the maze that is hialeah have they had ironbeer have they beEN TO THE BASS PRO SHOP IN DOLPHIN MALL#Drives me nuts#Anyway I think Nori would love ironbeer#If your are ever in Miami go to a Cuban restaurant and get yourself an Ironbeer it life if rootbeer was good#Also yes Jotaro is a boat guy I say this with confidence coming from a boating family in Florida#Also also i doing the research for the skin grafts really got me I don't do well with medical stuff.#jojos bizarre adventure#jojo no kimyou na bouken#jjba#jjba part 4#jjba part 3#diamond is unbreakable#stardust crusaders#kakyoin#noriaki kakyoin#jotaro#jotaro kujo#jotakak#noritaro#artists on tumblr#my art#adri blabs

#my art#nu carnival kuya#nu carnival quincy#quinya#i believe that's what theyre calling it. fuck if i know#the sheer number of color combinations i tried to make this cohesive without slapping a big dumb color layer on top#(this is actually a big dumb color layer underneath)#like i dont know fellas maybe im just not a guy who needs to color#anyway quincy is just the latest victim in my 'drawing a guy from top down and his legs are inexplicably giant' trend

I'm just a psycho, babe, come and go out my mind! I didn't lose it, babe, there wasn't much to find!
Plain text:
My grip on my secrets slipping while I'm speaking in tongues Screaming at the top of my lungs in the confession booth! Take it with a pillar of salt, halt, it's not my fault! The Devil made me do it but I also kinda wanted to...
Song: 2econd 2ight 2eer, Will Wood (Spotify)
#scp art#scp fanart#scp 049#scp-049#digital art#digital sketch#music inspired art#will wood#I don't know what I was doing with the colours#I just slapped something down#There's this one artist whose 049 design I love so much and I'm trying to emulate it a little#While obviously keeping my own style and stuff#My memory is terrible but I think their url is crypticcrisps(?)#Anyways feast your eyes (the people who followed me for 049 art and then I posted other things)

girl help I started writing down oc thoughts and have started contemplating the logistics of how a city carved into the walls of a ravine would have access to fresh water
#rye.txt#MaVst#'you should do some worldbuilding' I said to myself#'it'll be easy' i said#'just write down the little thoughts you've had floating around'#I AM A FOOL#there are so many bullet points in this fuckign document#and they're all devoted to the minutiae of how the city I have in my mind would function#how the very terrain would influence the culture#couldn't just do a normal city on flat terrain noooo I had to include homes carved into rock#anyway im pretending im upset but this is so much fun#I loveee getting to think about how tiny details all affect each other and influence the greater whole#it's like problem solving but I get to make the solutions as fun and fantastical as I want#if my ocs are my silly little dolls to play pretend with#then the worldbuilding is like getting to build the doll house#which is just as fun imo#anyway im gonna give the capital city an abandoned under-city that's no longer habitable now that the original royal family is#no longer in power#it used to be lit with the light magic of the ruler that was amplified by the crown#but now it's almost impossible to navigate and so big that your torch is liable to burn out before you can explore much at all#and without a light source it's completely pitch black darkness#<- see stuff like this is so fun to think about and I can just slap it onto my world because it's cool

If you've got something to say, just spit it out. Sorry. I should have visited you earlier.
KISEKI: DEAR TO ME Ep. 12
#kiseki: dear to me#kisekiedit#kdtm#kiseki dear to me#ai di x chen yi#chen yi x ai di#nat chen#chen bowen#louis chiang#chiang tien#jiang dian#userspring#userrain#uservid#pdribs#userjjessi#*cajedit#*gif#userspicy#save me prison ai di. prison ai di save me.#i love the way ai di takes in the cake like...he is so touched and also refusing to show it#but he cant help but look at it for a minute...and literally swallow down how much it makes him feel#and then he pulls out the dage!!!!!! ONE HIT K/O#is it to remind chen yi of what chen yi thinks of him? or is it to remind HIMSELF of what he believes chen yi thinks of him#either way it's a mocking slap in the face. i love how this is one out of two times ai di uses this term to mock chen yi#i love the different connotations of language. how in both Those uses he means it in the familial sense as well as the gang sense#to cut into the way chen yi treats him and exposing how they couldn't be farther from 'brothers' in both senses#whereas at the end he uses 'da' once. but never again does he call chen yi 'ge'. when he calls chen yi his boss#the person he follows but not bc he's duty bound to - bc he's the most important person in his life. the person ai di belongs to.#anyway i really like the way ai di's laugh drops into a sneer in that gif when he says it.

You're my World
Doesn't matter where we are as long as we're together.
New Pride Flags Makeup (AXL Edition) by @pinkyjulien 💛
#cyberpunk 2077#kerry eurodyne#kerry eurodyne x v#male v cyberpunk#masc v#vincent ezaki#cp2077#Cyberpunk2077#cyberpunk vp#cp2077 vp#cyberpunk photomode#virtual photography#my vp#otp: to bad decisions#;_____;#so happy about this updated mod and that I can slap these on them now whenever I want and also in combination aaaahhhh#like I said last year with my pride pics - I don't think that kerry doesn't really give a shit about labels xD#the medias are gonna say what they're gonna say anyway and create drama out of nothing#and he is comfortable in his own skin and doesn't see a need to label himself in whatever way#so he isn't all that into going to pride anymore (even if that was probably very different when he was younger)#vince though who couldn't be himself for a too long time goes every year and loves to celebrate it with others#even if he tends to be a bit more private about personal information otherwise - so this is a great opportunity#to be himself openly and fully - because he is confident and comfy and anything but ashamed and wants to make sure people keep that in mind#and then of course kerry come's along to support him and maybe is even down to dress up a little bit#or will allow Vince to put some rainbow makeup on him at least - and in a way it's very cute and reminding him of when he was his age#and yeh uwu just sharing experiences and going places together and celebrating their love and all#cyberpride2024
