grabs microphone. the killers received five grammy nominations for their debut album hot fuss but didn’t get shit, even though hot fuss was probably one of the biggest albums of the early 2000s and even now 20 years later we still know all the words to these songs, even if you’ve never—hey what the fuck give me that back GIVE IT TO ME—even if you’re unfamiliar with the killers and their debut album you know mr. brightside, somebody told me, all these things that i’ve done, smile like you—SMILE LIKE YOU MEAN IT, JENNY WAS A FRIEND OF MINE—GLAMOROUS INDIE ROCK AND ROLL, YOUVE HEARD THEM YOU KNOW THEM THE KILLERS ARE CRITICALLY UNDERAPPRECIATED EVEN AFTER SHAPING AN ENTIRE DECADE OF CLUB AND ROCK MUSIC—

thinks about the dichotomy of valkyrie arle and valkyrie doppel. plus a carby

drew this on a drawpile and kinda really like how it turned out! if you're wondering why I chose to do valkyrie arle from the varle&carbuncle alt its because that one shares a rose motif with vdoppel. if vdoppel is the thorns varle is the petals, or something, and then there's even more dichotomy right? sure

So since Gideon is Jesus and has a stigmata, and Harrow frequently can't trust her own perception, what are the chances atn will have a Doubting Thomas stigmata-touching scene?

Look, Batman is clearly and obviously queer. Have you seen that guy? Ignoring the fact that he runs around in fetish gear, has liaisons with bondage users, and his longtime partner is a twink in hot pants.

IGNORING ALL THAT

This man has his symbol on everything he owns. It's on his car. It's on his weapons. It's on his belt! This is a man who understands aesthetic. This is a man who serves justice and looks in equal measure.

Bruce Wayne, meanwhile, is depressingly heterosexual and—

I love you characters with avoidant attachment styles, I love you characters who adopt surface level philosophies of stoicism or nihilism for the sake of survival, I love you characters who will sacrifice themselves for a cause they never intended to sign up for but that they have nonetheless become emblematic of like it’s their day job, I love you characters who are obligate martyrs and tools and weapons and figureheads and icons, I love you characters who are not sure what’s left of their old selves underneath the layers and layers of scar tissue and the reputation that’s been placed upon them, I love you characters that are too afraid to find out, I love you characters that despite their own efforts remain deeply compassionate at the core, who have internal compasses that run hot and completely against the philosophies they use to reason with their fate, who know the way they love and care is both antithetical and their only option, who want to live so badly they’re willing to die for it, who don’t think they deserve it, who know that they do, who

I don't remember if I tried to rec that one to you yet but based on your latest danmei post: I think you should check out Thousand Autums, it has a pretty good political plot and an evil milf main character. He even has greying hair and fat tits

so ive been told! i do plan to read it eventually because i hear the main character is a bit like svsss shen qingqiu who is easily top 3 characters of all times but i haven't really pushed further. i think i have it downloaded though so i'll give it a try! i didn't know there was a political plot at all i thought it was mostly sect business......... this is unrelated entirely but has anyone read priest's revitalization of fu yao sect... in the depths of my autism i imagine the foxes in a xianxia setting having a run down poor little cultivation sect and kevin being the bigwig from a larger sect seeking shelter with them. NEED to see kevin teach neil how to use a sword asap

*taps the mic* personally i think yotsuyu and tsuna should have a homoerotic rivalry where she does the the villain chin grab thing on her (you know the one) because uhhh they became accidental narrative foils to one another and even though yotsuyu was my favorite before I even played this video game i did NOT design tsuna to be so similar on purpose I SWEAR

vestiges

(doodle dump + design notes under cut)

Had some fun with my thought process for these designs so I thought it'd also be fun to share <3

The two of them don't have skin per se— Koda is described to be a being of obsidian in the show so I wanted to lean into that as an overarching theme for the vestiges, where the solid part of their bodies (I think all vestige forms are like 30%-40% magical mist/smoke/whatever and 60%-70% actual physical mass, though the makeup varies between vestige) more closely resemble minerals and the like than anything organic. Koda specifically was designed after marbled obsidian, and Benevolence after shattered porcelain that is repaired via the Japanese art of Kintsugi, where broken pottery is repaired with a gold dyed glue medium.

Benevolence only appears 'human' from about the chest up, the entire lower half of his body is a floating mass of hands and mist obscured by the robes the hands hold up. I like to think most vestiges look entirely inhuman like Koda does, but Benevolence assumed a (slightly) more human-like appearance after integrating himself with Hominine, likely in some attempt to appear more welcoming to his followers. His hair is also always moving as though weightless or underwater, functioning like the misty haze that makes up part of his form rather than how natural human hair should function. His halo also appears perfectly behind his head no matter what angle you look at him from, and can be slightly disorienting and almost nauseating to look at.

My Koda has antlers because of the Chaperones at the Auction choosing stags for their avatars, even if stags have no connection to Koda in canon I just liked the symbolism/look of it :3. My Benevolence is also blind, the significance of which I touch on a bit in this hc post abt prestige and its affects that I made a few weeks ago!

Other inspirations for their designs specifically are Kalameet from Dark Souls 1 for Koda and Miquella from Elden Ring for Benevolence!

sometimes i go through old sketches of mine and i go FAWK okay that was cute

this one was from wayyyyyy before we got big ben, so he's got more of a lean look to him here. also if you could flip through all my other benrius sketches you'd probably detect a trend and that would be ben giving darius all the kisses he could ever want. this is MY #truth
