#I've had the cutest interaction today#So like yesterday? There was this post I saw on my dash that was like “you want to know extra info about museums? Just befriend a–#guide! That way you can also unlock the Secret Backscene” and I was like. Lmao. Who could ever befriend a museum guide I've never–#even personally met anyone who works at museums?#... Well. Guess what happened today#I was following this guided museum tour with a friend and when the tour came to an end I was happily chatting with her when the guide.#Shyly chimed in and was like “is that an Atsushi keychain?” And I was like !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#And I was like‚‚ omg‚‚‚ Do you happen to know‚‚‚ This one series‚‚‚‚‚‚#And they unsheathed their phone like a fbi distinctive in American movies to show me their fyo/zai background amjdsgawsjda it was SO cute.#They were adorable. And I got so embarassed but trying to keep my cool while internally I was like‚‚‚#Omg the Cool Museum Guide™ is talking with me about my hyperfixation‚‚‚‚‚‚ What is happening#We talked a bit about the manga it was such a nice and sweet exchange. They said they like Dostoyevsky and I was like yeah he's so cool!!!#They said they're sorry about Bram it was REALLY cute (´;ω;`)#I didn't want to hamper them too much so I took my leave shortly after but I'd actually really like to pay visit again–#when the new chapter is out??#Hhhhhhh I don't want to look stalkery and like go look for them on their job.

So, i went to a convention today. And checking out the comic artist section i found an animator doing sketch commisions for 45 dollars. He said hed do any character.
So today i commisioned a drawing of mr cycle from Ran Lamarre, an animator whos been working in the industry since 1984, who worked on the original animated tmnt series, animated batman series, care bears, the animated transformers movie, caillou, astro boy, jem, and im assuming a whole bunch more
He was so cool, dude

This is a PROFFESIONAL drawing of mr cycle, guys. A real proffesional, like, hes been doing this for forty years. I payed a proffesional animator of forty years to draw a minecraft character from a youtube series. Im actually going insane
#i hope you guys also find this super cool#because im seriously going crazy over this like omg#he was SO COOL TOO#like genuinely such a chill guy#hes probably old enough to be my grandpa but when i showed him mr cycle he was like “oh minecraft”#i cannot stress how cool this guy was#ran lamarre. go check him out#he doesnt have social media but he has an imdb#he deserves so much respect. he worked with PAPER. HAND DRAWN ANIMATION. THAT WAS HIM.#genuinely found myself a new inspiration guys i wanna be like ran lamarre#slimecicle#charlie slimecicle#mcyt#charlie slimesicle fanart#dsmp#mr cycle#mr cicle#mr cycle tales of the smp#tales of the smp

I think you made me start shipping Marchil
Your posts got me thinking about their dynamic then I wrote a fic that was supposed to be platonic but midway through I realized it could actually be interpreted as romantic too and now I'm just sad about how little time they'll have together
First of all, you have a lovely icon, second, I’m so honored… I finally read Not a bad way to go and it was soo so good like. My god!!! Pre-canon is underused and you did so many interesting things with it.
It sounded like a cruel joke, that the one who needed her concern the most was also the one least interested in it.
^^^ go read it go read it
Chilchuck was drunk enough that he needed to hold onto the walls not to fall, but apparently still sober enough to remember emotional vulnerability was his worst enemy, as he made sure to avert her eyes and said: “Namari made me come talk to you ” to make it clear he wasn't being nice voluntarily.
Yeah.
“Of course I'm scared of dying.” He scoffed. Did she really think so little of him? “But if I could choose, I would want to die doing something I love, like drinking. Or maybe fucking,”
Maybe you wish you didn’t know but my new favorite HC because of this is that Chil dies yes prematurely not of liver failure though but during coitus. Especially if marchil, the thought of him busting a nut and his heart giving out makes me laugh so hard. My god. Lmao. Oh god. Lmfao. Worst day of her life
Marcille knew Chilchuck wasn't a kid, but she often struggled to take him seriously as an adult because he was just so adorable and small. In this moment, however, she saw them exactly for what they were, even if it was just a glimpse. A sheltered, naive little girl trying to tell a tired, much more experienced man how to live the rest of his life.
Standing ovation
She tried to find an explanation to give him, but she couldn't even find one for herself. Why would she miss him? He was just Chilchuck, her coworker, Chilchuck who was cold, aloof, sometimes crass, evasive, and even outright mean. He who was level headed, reliable, trustworthy, perceptive and clever. He who had the least time left, even in a best case scenario. “I guess that despite your best efforts, there's still a lot to like about you.”
This fic goes so hard, standing ovation pt 2
“I just think it's better if we don't get too close. Don't you agree?” “I… maybe” she said, uncertain as he didn't know how to feel about that. Caring about people would only hurt her in the wrong run, she knew that, but unfortunately she couldn't help it.
I looove how they can be read to be similar on this aspect. My hand clenching around my phone as I rear up to rant about Marcille and the way she does keep people at an arm’s length subconsciously again my god my goood. Obsessed with this obsessed with this, underused for marchil. Terrified of loss through death vs rejection duo I love youuu
Brilliant ending I’m in shambles. I’m not gonna spoil it
You get marchil so much you truly do. The way they mesh, the way their views on mortality clash and both soothe & bruise… He doesn’t have much time left even in best case scenario (which Mr I won’t eat well I’ll drink and smoke a lot I’ll stress all day every day is determined to not make happen) which makes it all the more meaningful for Marcille’s arc when she learns from him to finally enjoy the present moments… It’ll only be a fraction of her life, but to him he’s giving her the rest of his life. What are some decades of love worth? Worth it, surely, if nothing else

#My only nitpick is that canonically they rarely hang out after work and you wrote that they did it often but that’s lit the only thing#Chilchuck tims#dunmeshi memes#ask#I have friends big fans of the timeline where Chil is one of those who miraculously live to 70#Marcille is always bracing herself year after year to lose him and it just becomes anticlimatic#Chilchuck the old fart grumpy husband who REFUSES to die#I wanna write pre-canon marchil as well eventually…#Anyways i hope u don’t mind me putting ur fic on blast!! I liked it a lot and again i couldn’t be happier i made you like the ship#Or even write fic like omg… i hope you make more!! You got them down real well#Thank you for the ask and thank you for the content!!! Made my day. Bith when u sent it and when i rea the fic i was having a bad day#Like his dad WOULD say that. ‘I heard you crying what the fuck’ aughh they’re so so compelling pre canon oh my god#I looove ‘platonic or romantic you choose’ fics and tackling alcoholic Chil is an instant like. The 1 flirty line was a nice treat#Marchil union is brainstorming Coraline AUs btw they all go so hard I’m looking forward to that wave#Tried to keep this a lil more composed than the ao3 comments I make lmaoo but yeah know that i’d do rabid keysmashes about it#‘You’re easy to love despite it all/even if you try to make it hard to’ is such a core of marchil

Nine! About time I drew him
#my son! (is only like 7 yrs older than him)#sonic prime#nine the fox#tails nine#miles nine prower#sonic prime nine#him and his many tags#ibispaintx#digital art#artwork#my art#as you can see I’ve given up on line art cuz my lines are never straight (and neither am I)#when drawing him I just realized how complex his design is like omg#I struggled#I’m still not over that trailer he’s off his rockers he’s going insane he has done nothing wrong ever cuz I said so#I’m still pissed at sonic for saying that line#when he says ‘he messes with all of us’ does that include the chaos council???#I hope not they were they literally committed crimes against humanity#the council are only working with them for selfish reasons and are only looking out for themselve#so yeah I am now taking custody of nine because of that line#oh sonic doesn’t want him anymore? ok then mine now#don’t talk to me or my son ever again#sonic prime fanart

need the current hotd ao3 economics explained to me like I'm five, what happened there with aemond and luke?
and like don't get me wrong, I understand that those targs are built different and there's no avoiding alabama dynamics, that's okay ig. but the least y'all could've done is chosen the velaryon brother that isn't 13, come on now 😭😭 the bar was already low, how did y'all manage to still be limbo dancing with the devil
#jokes aside though I'm not really judging or certainly not looking to attack anyone I'm just genuinely curious#cause i am 2 years late to the fandom and all#and I wanna know what caused this as I didn't see anything that interesting in what aemond and luke got going on#except for the eye thing obv#and even then it was jace's knife and it was jace who attacked first and it was jace who was being protected by the final slash#and if you go through the show all aemond's parallels and most interactions go through jace as well#so what did happened there can someone pls enlighten me#was that some inside joke that got really out of control or#hotd#house of the dragon#aemond targaryen#lucerys velaryon#hope y'all are not forgetting to age up luke in your works though omg😭😭

“Kajiyama?” “Fuuta.” Even a statue would be moving more than him, as Mikoto’s mouth hangs agape, staring unblinking at Kajiyama, his prior confessions all but forgotten. Mikoto is stuck isolated in a freeze-frame caught at the moment that word escaped his mouth, and even Kajiyama’s head has snapped up in shock, and he’s pretty sure neither of them are even breathing at this point because, surely, that’s not - “What?” Kajiyama is first to break their eye contact, turning away as he quietly mutters out, “My name. It’s my name, Kajiyama Fuuta.”
I've been going crazy over @lostxmelody 's assassin au, Parts of a Human ! Little tribute to a moment that made me actually gasp out loud (and promptly apologize to my sister for teasing her for the habit...)
(Lighter version but I think I like the first better)
#milgram#mikoto kayano#fuuta kajiyama#a few details are changed for composition purposed but OUGH that scene made me absolutely insane#i made fuuta smiling for the contrast but LMAO i love that he was as annoyed as usual even during such a meaningful/vulnerable confession#the physical closeness/trust/irony/unexpectedness of this scene just HIT - i hope i could do some of it justice#and yeah... i always make fun of my sister for gasping and saying things out loud while watching movies so i had to apologize 😅#tried something new with lighting this time - i hope it worked idk#i wanted to draw brown hair mikoto but he did dye his hair by this scene lol#and fuutas EARRING i wasnt expecting that OUGHHHH but i was sad i needed him facing the wrong way so you cant see it here#this chapter destroyed me omg

Based on that one tag game: Do you wanna tell the story of how you got your switch? 👉👈 ^^
DEFINITELY >:·3
It's been a while now, but it was from that tag game of how you got into loz. This one wont be that long tho (I hope) XDSJADH.
I bought my switch in 2017 (bro is so tired in 2025 I feel bad for them omg), but not in March cause I had to study, so I bought it in June, AND OMG IT WAS ALWAYS SOLD OUT, so you can imagine.
Classic 14 year old excited to get the new nintendo but gets to the store and there's no switch in sight. And it was like that for a whole week. I would go to the store at 10am when they just opened and the lady would tell me they're sold out.
BUT, one of those days (I think by the 6th day going there the lady just knew who i was lol 💀) I went asking for a switch like a victorian child dirty from soot begging for bread for the 34899845th time, and she told me "okay, come this thursday at 10 and I'll save one for you when we restock, so when you come you can get it" cause the truck with all the store's restock would come that thursday, and omg I got too excited.
So I went to the store again that thursday and she was there, asked for the console and gave it to me, and I said thanks like 93579375 times XD. And oh boy, I even cried when I placed it on the shopping cart, I was so happy seeing it in the damn cart and knowing I could play with it that very same day, I waited for so long and saved a lot of money to buy it and I was just too happy hahaha!!! My mom told me I looked silly but I didn't care ngl, I wanted that new nintendo so bad. So badly that I didn't even realized what games were out for the switch to play XDDKSJA.
So then I looked over the videogame section and made the great decision of buying the new Zelda game which I didn't know if I was gonna like or not (I did). And 1, 2 switch (which is really boring if you're an only child and don't have friends to play with lol).
I also remember getting home and unboxing it, it felt so weird, the joycons were so different from the Wii remotes, and I will always remember being pissed off because the menu didn't have music/camera/flipnote studio/silly menu games/THEMES, I'm still mad to this day lol, I hate the switch in general, love the games but the console? Boring. The 3DS is the superior console. But yeah, turning it on and plugging the joycons in was really epic atm, I was just :O the whole time XDDSALJH. It's been 8 years almost omg. 💀
So yeah, that was my switch story :·3, it could've been shorter but my professional yapper ahh can't shut up so I made it longer
This could be a chain/tag game too but don't wanna pressure people, so if you wanna talk about how did y'all get your switch or some random experience with it feel tagged or tag me :·3 or tell me in my askbox! :D
#yap#tag game#?#hope you didn't fall asleep while reading this XDKASJDH#my life's quite boring or normal ngl#let's see how the switch 2 goes!#omg I felt so old saying that wtf#I'm not buying it tho#I'll wait#not making the same mistake I did with the switch#cause I never used the dock and I'll always regrert not getting a switch lite instead#now I want the zelda switch lite but the switch 2 will be out soon#and who knows if there will be a lite version#I'm buying that one if they release them but yeah no one knows yet#and as long as there's no new zelda game before I'm not buying the regular switch 2#please nintendo think about students who don't work :'·3

i nearly anon'd the thorki non-con fic out of SHAME but in two weeks it's become my third most clicked-on fic of the year, behind only a multichapter fic and a bit of angsty sifki porn lololol
#this is about 560 hits btw which i know is not much for bigger fandoms and it's just that i tend to be in some weird niche but gosh!#i'd written thorki before but it wasn't e-rated so if the non-con tag really did work against it then wow no wonder ppl write this pairing!#you ever been to reddit where someone posts about how their latest fic only got 20k hits in a week and you're like “WTF”?#and it turns out they're in some hugely popular fandom and that's the least read fic for that pairing on the entire site by a mile.#that's like glimpsing a parallel universe. what a strange place. why would any fic ever have more than 1000 hits omg!#and 1000 would be for if you wrote something Surprisingly Popular. like e-rated thorki non-con apparently is.#meanwhile 'cockroboros' may only have 35 hits but every one of those 35 people agrees that i was right to write that thing!!#and me and the other 86 people who wanted to see missy interact with jamie moriarty are besties now <3#SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I TURN THE NUMBERS BACK ON OH NOOOOOO THIS WAY LIES MADNESS!!!#the sifki one had a bump recently which i must assume came from one of those 'recced it in a discord but never said a word' incidents.#those are increasingly common and i hope i am not alone in finding them ever so slightly creepy#if you're going to look at me you need to at least pat me on the head to cancel out the anxiety of that damn it!#*flashes back to when i hid that one ten'n'donna fic because nobody would tell me where all the readers were coming from*#fic related#anyway i think it's important to mention i wrote thorki non-con fic in case anyone following me thinks i am Unproblematic in some way.

I just saw the first 7 minutes of season 2 of XO, Kitty and I just want to say that I am even more excited for the season. Like, nothing can ruin this for me at this point. Everything is how I imagined it and I am so pumped so far!!
I haven't freaked out this much since the Haikyuu Dumpster Battle movie was added to Crunchyroll (and I didn't know it was going to be added so it was a surprise & it was amazing)!!
I'm not even sorry that this show and is going to be the only thing I think about for the next 3 days until it's finally released and then I don't know how long it's going to stay in my head and how many times I'm going to rewatch it until it's memorized! I'm so excited!!
It's all perfect. Every character is perfect! I'm so excited! I can't wait to meet the new characters!! Everybody has done everything great and I'm so excited to see where this season goes!!
Alex was there (obviously we knew he was going to be there- but he was there)!!
I'm going to cry and it was only 7 minutes!!
♡
#xo kitty#xo kitty season 2#xo kitty spoiler reaction#thank you Netflix#I'm thinking because I'm so excited but I have to go to bed so I can get over work- this is chaos#love#omg#I really don't want Alex put on the back burner this season so this has allowed mevto still hold out hope#alex finnerty

Laishuro College AU prompt, and notes:
-first note, we’ve seen in casual doodles in the adventurer’s Bible that Toshiro seems to have an eye/interest for art and aesthetics. My gf for this AU is that he knows how to draw people and plants pretty well, but not animals or buildings. -second note, I’m using a chuck of Lokh’s own college AU idea where Laios is actually a online, novel writer on the side.
Toshiro, less interested in the DM campaign than he is staring at his surroundings, especially when said sessions took place at the old Touden House, he’s always looking around at the family pictures and nicknacks. Half-hoping he’d eventually see Falin’s childhood room, though having the sessions there was as rare enough.
So Toshiro isn’t super happy when the opportunity of exploring the home does arise, it’s to help Laios with his part of their assignment. When Toshiro looks around (reluctantly) Laios’ room, he notices all the bugs inside frames, and shelves full of animal parts like feathers and bones. So much so that even Laios notices Toshiro is distracted, and so he shows Toshiro his rarest souvenirs from going around the forest as a kid.
Toshiro is shaken to see a feather with similar patterns and colors as it was described in one of his favorite indie novels. Inside a rusty lunch box was also a few rocks and ores, but that feather stood out. Laios puts it all away before Toshiro can form the right question, a part of him also thinking it could just be a coincidence. The seed has been planted though, and so he can’t help but seeing the other similarities in Laios and the descriptions in the novel. Even notices his style of narration whenever they have a DM session after that.
Just a slow burn of Toshiro connecting dots and felling super frustrated yet enamored by the similarities, while planing to find a way to figure it out without anyone, especially Kabru (bc he would eventually just make fun of him anyways lol) finding out. So he has no other choice… Toshiro is going to have to get Laios all alone to confirm his suspicions and perhaps even… Admit his admiration for Laios work. If that’s all he’s found himself to enjoy about Laios that’s is.
This got my brain juices going. Drabble under the cut.
It never felt like it was the right moment to catch Laios. It was only fair, he was a busy guy outside of club meetings. So, Toshiro decided to do things the old-fashioned way.
When the class they shared together ended, he turned to Laios, opening his mouth to speak, but then he was bombarded by their peers sitting nearby in the neighboring rows.
Realizing that it was yet again not a good time, Toshiro stood from his chair and grabbed his things, leaving the classroom. As students flooded out of the door, someone else came rushing after him.
"Hey! Toshiro!"
Startled by his name being called, Toshiro turned around, meeting with Laios face-to-face again.
"Sorry it took me so long," he panted, catching his breath. "Did you wanna talk to me about something?"
Feeling put on the spot, Toshiro wanted to flee. Then he remembered, he needed to speak to Laios for a reason; a really good one. But he needed more time to gather his bearings about this.
"Can you meet me at the restaurant later tonight?" Club sessions weren't tonight due to everyone's schedules being packed, so they'd have a table to themselves.
"Sure!" Laios nodded. Another friend of his presumably called after him, catching his attention, but he made sure to properly say goodbye to Toshiro first.
Then, it was back to being invisible again.
Later, Laios met him at the restaurant as promised. He was on time, which wasn't unusual, but Toshiro was expecting him to postpone because something had come up.
Toshiro just had a coffee, because he had assignments he preferred to stay up late completing after this. He let Laios order whatever he wanted, though. He even offered to share some of his food with Toshiro, one of which was a gigantic plate of french fries.
Toshiro gave into trying just one, dipping it into the glob of ketchup on the side of the plate. It was incredibly salty, but it tasted incredible.
"Good, right?" Laios grinned. Toshiro smiled back. Okay, here goes nothing...
When Toshiro vouched to change the subject, Laios picked up another fry. "Try another!"
Seeing Laios dangle the salty fry at his face, Toshiro took it from him, taking a bite. Laios' smiled brightly, and then he began to talk to Toshiro about plans for their next campaign.
It was impossible to get Laios to stop when he was on a passionate tangent, so Toshiro let him. He paid for their check, insisting it was his treat and not Laios', and then they left the restaurant. Thankfully, judging by the silence, Laios must've run out of steam.
"Laios," Toshiro began, ignoring his racing heart as he continued. "Do you... do you remember when you showed me your collection at your house?"
Laios perked up. "Oh. Yeah, I do. Why?"
Toshiro stopped walking. Laios stopped a few steps ahead of him, noticing Toshiro wasn't moving anymore.
"That feather I saw in your lunch box," Toshiro said after, "I noticed, that it was also mentioned in one of your novels..."
Laios was quiet for some time, making Toshiro panic, wondering if he said the wrong thing. Then, he heard a chuckle come from the other man.
"So," he started, hands in his pockets as he approached Toshiro. "I'm guessing you figured it out, huh?"
Toshiro could only blink in utter confusion. "What?"
"I thought I was being subtle, well, kinda." Laios said with a bashful smile on his lips.
"I don't-" Toshiro shook his head, frowning. "Understand..."
"You basically just told me you read my novels, only someone that does would know this at all," Laios said, being more direct this time. "I haven't shown anyone other than Falin that feather."
This must mean Laios wanted to show him his collection, just Toshiro, and only him.
"Are you serious?"
Laios laughed, ruffling the back of his head. "Yeah. Y'know, it really makes me happy knowing you like my work."
Toshiro walked past him, pink coloring his pale cheeks, and it wasn't from the cold weather.
"Wait, Toshiro! Where are you going?!" Laios chased after him.
"Far away from you." Toshiro muttered.
"Just hold on a second!" Laios grabbed his arm, shifting in front of him on his feet. "I'm not trying to make fun of you about it!"
"The similarities between you and your writing made me feel like I've gone insane, and I've been keeping this in for weeks and weeks without saying a word about it," Toshiro confessed. When he saw that Laios wasn't reacting, he came to a disturbing conclusion. "How long have you known?"
"Hmm..." Laios hummed, taking his hand off Toshiro's arm. "I just had a feeling, I guess? Besides, you were kind of acting off since then. At first I thought you were freaked out, but that can't be the case. Then there was the possibility you knew about my work. I didn't want to ask you outright. I thought it was a stretch, so I was hoping you'd come to me about it."
There was no reason to try to fight this. Laios had him cornered.
"I'd have to admit, you are a remarkable writer," Toshiro said begrudgingly. "You and your protagonists have some things in common. Brash, insatiable, oblivious, surprisingly perceptive to other's emotions." And those just happened to be the traits that drew Toshiro to Laios in the first place. "But their resolve..." Laios stared at him intensely as he continued, hoping he could ignore his nerves, "is nothing like I've ever seen, I can't believe I'm saying this, I feel as if if they keep going on they could rule the world someday and succeed."
Laios' smile was warm, hearing Toshiro's feedback. "Yeah?"
He was suddenly closer than before, close enough for their lips to touch if he had taken another step.
"Yes." Toshiro whispered, a breath away from feeling Laios' lips on his, a hand on his chest, tilting his head up slightly.
Just as Laios was about to grant that wish, stirring Toshiro's gut, he snapped out of it last minute, stepping away.
"I should, uh, get home-" Toshiro blurted, eyes darting from Laios.
"Oh," Laios coughed, covering his mouth with his palm. "Okay. Sorry, I know you have an exam tomorrow morning. Can I walk you home?"
Toshiro waved his hand. "You don't have to do that-"
"Please." Laios begged, coming closer again. Toshiro stumbled back, because if he were in the same position as he were in before he was going to do something he'd regret in the morning. "Can I?"
Laios was just walking him home - an innocent gesture of kindness he'd been doing for some time now. It shouldn't mean anything, should it? He practically confessed that he idolized Toshiro and how happy it made him to know Toshiro was a reader of his novels. It was sure to affect their relationship in some capacity; but maybe if they pretended otherwise, it wouldn't make things weird between them.
Toshiro nodded. When he walked, he slowed his pace for Laios to catch up. Somehow, their arms couldn't stop brushing on the entire walk back, but neither of them could bring themselves to look at each other, far too embarrassed to.
Who were they kidding, they couldn't be subtle about their feelings on the situation to save their lives.
