Could we have some more Kinger x Pomni art from the boxer au pretty please?

Made this at work yesterday. Drawing @burrotello’s AU Kinger is like trying to draw a giant puffball.

Hello everyone!

As the start of September draws near (and the reveal of the calendar) I'd just like to take the time to answer some questions people have had/might have! If you have additional ones, please don't hesitate to send an ask!

'Is it only for artists?'

Nope! Lodgetember is for everyone! Artists, writers, crafters, musicians, cosplayers, just general ramblers- anything you can think to do, you can do it! As long as it relates to the lodger or prompt of that day! Want to just talk about how much you love a lodger on their day? Or info dump and give fun facts? You can do that! This isn't just limited to artists :3

'Can I only post things on the certain day?'

On the day and anytime after! Once the official post for a certain day comes out, it's free reign! So, say Helsby's day has already passed and you were unable to do something for him before or on the day, well, you're still free to do stuff for him any time after! Just use the specific tag for that day, and you're good to go!

We understand that people are busy and life can get in the way, and we just want everyone to have fun with this with minimal time restraints. Even once September has ended, feel free to keep posting things!

'When are the posts for each day coming out?'

We're going to aim for the daily posts to be uploaded around 9 am EST ( or 6 am PST, so about 20 minutes before TGS pages drop), and once they're up you can start posting your submission for that day!

'Can I make something in advance for a certain day?'

You're absolutely welcome to start drawing or writing something for a certain day before it comes out! Just hold off on posting it until that day has come or passed :3

'How will participant posting be done?'

Each day will have a specific hashtag (ie LodgetemberArcher, LodgetemberFlowers, LodgetemberShips), and then we'll have an overall tag of Lodgetember24 for everyone to use! So, overall tag, then specific day tag! This'll help keep submissions a bit more separate when we do this again next year!

Additionally, we will be reblogging things people create, so all daily lodger and prompt posts from us will be tagged with #daypost24 to help keep them separate and easier to find via searching!

Otherwise, keep an eye on the blog, because the Calendar will be revealed within the next few days! Kitty is working very hard to make sure it looks amazing, and we're very excited to reveal it!

What is your opinion on the Beetlejuice 2 Dream Theory?

My short answer is that it's plausible, but not likely that that's what the writers or Tim intended. That said, every viewer is entitled to their own interpretation. When a piece of media leaves the author's hands, then it doesn't belong exclusively to the author anymore; the story takes on a new form when it falls in the hands of the audience ("the death of the author is the birth of the reader" etc).

I'd have to rewatch the movie with my brain prepared to point out references that may show that everything we're witnessing as the movie plays out is not real.

As for my personal interpretation, I don't think that's the case. There was indeed a dream sequence at the end though; we have to decide, when does the dream start? Was it when Betelgeuse and Lydia were dancing in midair? (Betelgeuse does break the 4th wall to tell the audience "I love a good dream sequence", so that's possible). Or was it later after Lydia says her goodbye to Delia? I've only watched the movie once so far, so my thoughts may change when I rewatch it, but for now, this is where I think the dream starts:

I think the dream started with Lydia quitting her show. She may not have quit it at all, as a matter of fact, but her dream started with this because she's now hoping for a fresh start and quitting her show is part of what she has identified as her ideal life, going forward. She's dreaming about a perfect life, believing herself rid of Betelgeuse and Rory and her past, and starting fresh with Astrid, focused on being her mother and being there for her this time. Astrid and Lydia only have each other now after the loss of Delia and Charles, as far as family goes. All of that from that moment on is the dream. In truth, she isn't rid of Betelgeuse, and she is pretty isolated now. So she is shaken awake by the nightmare (I already made a detailed post about that, so I won't go into detail about the dream and what I think it means here). I think the dream ends when she hears/feels Betelgeuse in bed with her. Betelgeuse isn't gone and he's still very much in love with her, which may not be a very comforting thought to her just yet lol.

Now as I'm writing this, as a matter of fact, her little jumpscare when feeling Betelgeuse in bed with her might have a double meaning. Why was she dreaming about him being in bed with her? To be honest, when I first saw that in the theater I thought the wedding had gone through, since they were sharing a bed now! Lydia may be beginning to realize her feelings about Betel have changed, which understandably scares her right now. Then she wakes up again and he's gone. There is a question here, was he part of the dream or was he truly in bed with Lydia? Maybe he was there after all (which is what I personally believe).

Anyway, I am beginning to ramble, but Tl;Dr: There was a dream, but it starts when Lydia quits her job (or maybe after she quits, when she and Astrid are in vacation together).

Again, if it's the same theory I read (which I totally love and find super intriguing), it does make good points, so in short I would say it's plausible. Today I read a post about how the name "Richard" repeats in the movie in several instances, which may add to the "none of this is real, it's all a dream" theory. But to be honest, for me at least, there is more reason to believe that what we witnessed in the film did happen, and Astrid, Rory, Richard, etc are all real and part of Lydia's life.

That Lydia isn't married to Betel by the end of this film doesn't mean her feelings about him will remain as they are and that she will never accept him or even love him, though. This movie was SO a setup for a third film and I am sure of that. It was left open ended so in the event it didn't land well, the franchise could be set to rest with this sequel which was mostly a passion project for those involved, but now we know the movie was a massive hit, so it's very likely and I have no doubt we will get a final third part. There is a LOT of "the rule of three" around Betelgeuse, starting with the fact that you need to say his name three times to summon him. "Third time's a charm", you know what I mean? So I believe the final movie will see them married (yep, not just together or just friends, but married). Marriage is a very important theme in Beetlejuice, both for the series and the titular character himself, so that wedding will happen and it will go through next time, for better or worse (and I hope for better!) Again, rule of three applies here. I think the story is prime for either a soulmate story, or a tragic "true love will set you free" kind of story in which Lydia has to marry Betelgeuse in order to free his soul so he can move on (it was pointed out to me that this resembles the story of Corpse Bride, which is also a movie directed by Tim Burton). If he goes with the latter, then that doesn't mean Lydia won't love him and will just marry him to free him (as in she’s his true love but she doesn’t love him back romantically); she may still fall in love with him, but will find a way to break his attachment/curse to set his soul free and "let him go" for now (it could go either way tbh 😭), and they can still find each other in the afterlife. And wouldn't that be nice? If the two of them can move on to a better place in the great beyond in the finale? To spend eternity together in peace.

Anyway, rambling again! This is my answer. Sorry for replying a little late (and "yapping" so much lol), but trust me I was thinking about this question all day.

[askpercyandspringtrap]

is the machine broken beyond repair now or...?

First part: here

[angelinecarax]

Beyond the usual suspects*, the answer would be... Minfilia.

Angeline I think never gets the real pleasure of knowing Minfilia personally - at least, that's what she feels when she hears Thancred speak so fondly and deeply about her - because, from her perspective, Minfilia was almost entirely artifice and Angeline was never comfortable in her presence. from the very first overly-familiar "we're a familyyyy" to the Bloody Banquet.

The Bowl of Embers marked the first time Angeline's shit got well and truly Rocked in her life, and how she felt Minfiia sent her in unequipped and unprepared for the reality of what was happening (not even completely sure it would work) would be bad enough. Thancred being the one to be like "yes by the way the Flames you were with, all of them? They've been quietly killed by now, just so you know, no choice", quietly to her so Minfilia wouldn't hear and stop him? Minfilia wouldn't have let Angeline know? From that moment something went inert in Angeline's chest and made certain she never had to spend more time than necessary or say more sentences than as necessary to her.

@wildknightblaze thank you I think for the last time lmao, I appreciate getting a chance to dig into these questions at their own pace

[the-spookiest-graphics]

Is there any examples of userboxes, dividers and etc?? I wanna request one or some but I'm not too familiar with names and etc and I'm scared I might mess up or make it confusing lmao/gen

oh, yes!

userboxes are basically little images that say ‘this user x’, some examples that i’ve stolen from my mutuals are;

dividers are basically long strips that, well, divide a post, some examples i got from glitter graphics are;

blinkies are like,, little boxes that have text attached (not sure how else to explain) here’s some examples i’ve got from tumblr + glitter graphics;

i will explain stamps in a reblog because i ran out of space and i don’t feel like grabbing my laptop

[gortash-week]

I've loved the submissions and reading and kudosing them on Ao3, but noticed the other creators and writers are not supporting or reviewing each other. Could you remind everyone that one of the goals here is to help raise all of the creator's works and they should be supporting each other?

hi anon!! sorry i didn't answer this quicker - i've been busy!

obviously i can't force people to interact with content, especially if it's something they may not be interested in or if they dislike what's written & the whole point of this specific blog is to collect and share everything in one place so that if people want to share and engage with other's work, they can

i know i personally had plans to read every fic that came out but with the AO3 collection reaching 80 fics (and most likely still counting), it's going to take a bit! (bedtime stories are sorted for the next few weeks, though)

it's really up to people to decide how much they want to engage - some people are more happy dropping their work and running away, other's will go through and like everything they can! it depends on the person

it may either take a while for people to get through the fics (again, there's quite a few now!) or maybe people aren't interested in certain topics & will avoid them! i know you mean well anon and i hope this response doesn't come across badly (i have all the love in my heart for you and understand how annoying it can be when your work isn't getting a similar amount of attention - it's just the way things can be sometimes!)

i've tried to leave little comments on the art shared & when i get around to reading i'll kudos and leave a comment, but that's just me doing this (and as the host of the event i feel as if i need to a] thank everyone for joining and b] leave a nice comment as well)

my main (and really only goal) for this week was to celebrate gortash because i know there's a hefty fanbase for him with some really talented people in it - i honestly had no idea it would grow this big! the fact that people took time out of their schedules to make or read or share something for this week is incredible and all you really can do is keep kudosing and sharing and doing your part

again, i hope this doesnt sound too bad or anything & obviously if you can share & kudos & maybe even leave a little comment on other people's work, that would be great! i've seen a lot of people leave comments in the tags and thats wonderful! i'm not expecting everyone to read everything but if you do end up reading something - a little comment or kudos might not hurt ;D

[hitomisuzuya]

I’m curious but to ask, what’s your sexuality?

i have no problem answering this. i am bi sexual girl. i really enjoy writing yuri as well.

[culinarycrucible]

How’s production going team?

And you’re all doing great work!! And take your time!!

Hey, thanks for asking! I’d love to give you a slightly more in depth look at where we’re at right now!

We have received all of our merch and our team is currently packing up what we have so that when the books arrive, we can start shipping as soon as possible.

Our books are now fully edited and off to print! Editing took a bit longer than anticipated due to one of our mods stepping down, as well as the fact that the book is twice as long as we originally anticipated. Plus, we wanted to make sure that everything looked perfect!

At this time, we have completed our digital bundles as well, and will be sending those out to everyone in the next couple days! Don’t worry- we’ll update again once they’re sent so you know to check your email!

The Culinary Crucible team would like to thank everyone for their patience! Your support has meant so much to us, and we’ve been working really hard to put together a great project. We will continue to keep you updated as we move forward into this final stretch of production and shipping!!!

would Pomni and gummigoo sing “Loser, Baby”?

The difference from the Hazbin version’s that Pomni and Gummigoo would make the song sound hotter ���

[chuuyathechibi]

would you still love me if i was a worm?

(- @dazai-mackerel )

You know what, yeah. I would still love you if you were a worm

[pan-chandbgt]

Did you ever get judged for shipping Trupan? Do you believe that the hate is unnecessary because these characters aren’t real?

yeah i have if you seen some of older ask posts! and yeah it's especially annoying when people hate on Trupan but don't hate on or have problems with Goten x Bulla when they the same age gap and (i don't have problems with the ship btw but they don't even interact in GT or Z like Trunks and Pan) but think Trupan is bad lol

[1dr1nkpa1nt]

Ask for Knockout:

How’s the husband(Breakdown)? Also what are your opinions on Starscream’s leadership?

bonus!! 🌟 (i thought it was cute)

[angelinecarax]

Angeline would say she collects hobbies the way she collects everything else, and everything she does she does to unwind, and that vague answer serves to safeguard the truth:

she only really unwinds when nobody knows where she is.

At her most stressed moments she'll pick a direction and charge into it until she finds a hidden enough, secluded enough, quiet enough place to just dissolve outwards, driving out stress (and other thought) like carrying detritus out on a landslide until there's nothing else remaining that isn't already present here in this temporary someplace.

When she plays the violin again, it's here that she would compose, though it's rare she'd bother to remember them. (G'raha* will write them down if he happens to overhear them. She'll play or re-discover their favorites for him and Aymeric later.)

She has a lot of card-based thinking stims, like shuffling her deck or arbitrarily sorting the cards she pulls. While initially solely her triple triad cards, mounts, weapons, minions, and entire outfits would eventually show up in there. Many esoteric personal games with them.

I imagine, especially when she has extended free time on her hands, she'd get into tons and tons of different random shit though at the end of the day she'd probably dedicate the most time overall to her Menagerie.

thank yoooouououo @viiioca for the deep deep thinkin quastions
