And all was right in the world.

You are everything I aspire to be

If parenting has taught me anything, it is the importance of getting down on your hands and knees and teaching not just facts, but love and enthusiasm for the natural world.

This is my son Q and me. I have dozens of photos like this by now, even though he is just two years old.

Every chance I get, I will kneel down with him and show him the little creatures all around us. Especially when they are frogs. He loves frogs for some reason. No idea why.

It is important that we all see this together. It is beautiful. It is magnificent. We are here. It is improbable to the highest degree. It is fleeting, but it is everything we get. And we can get so, so much of it. If we just get our faces into it and really absorb it.

So that's what l'm trying to do here, I guess. Get all of you to join me in the reeds. And I am so happy to have so many of you along for the journey.

Wait, do we know who / what literature works do the Flags take their names after anyways? I always assumed Albatross took his name from the poem L'Albatros by Charles Baudelaire, and of course I know who Walter Lippmann is, but what about the others?

Why do you like Vax so much?

You're seriously asking me this question? Have you SEEN this beautiful half elf??? This cute, broody, 'I will sacrifice myself for my friends because that's all i think im worth' half elf.. This man that grew up being nothing but a bastard child, a thief, who grew fucken wings and became the angel of death (champion of ravens) and started to have a purpose outside of Vexahlia. This flirtaious, snarky bisexual disaster who cares so much about his found family that he'll die for them.. He deserves so much happiness.

I just really want to say I really love your angle of portraying Mew as just as omnipotent as arceus, but often forgetting she too is a creature of emotions and needs. it's such a cool angle to see with mew and not one you usually see

Aww thank you^^

Ermmmm adding onto the puppet!reader… what if they’re a creation the same way Raiden Shogun or Kuni is to Ei (minus the abandonment and whatnot??)

a Cyborg who grew up in a humble family but had everything ripped away from him, now existing not just for himself but to reenact justice and revenge through the cosmos.

Then theres a Puppet who’s essentially “born” into royalty due to being the creation of a ruler, whose purpose is to maintain order in their land.

I had a vision, sorta

and a brilliant vision at that!

boothill had a humble upbring with a family that was forged through compassion and care, yet you had everything. you're sole purpose was to be crafted into royalty to then take your creators place yet no amount of family could be felt. the only thing you two had in common was your lack of humanity.

the ipc had forced his hand into seeking out revenge but it was still ultimately his choice to shed himself of his remaining humanity. you never had a say, you're creator created you for a sole purpose that was dictated from the very minute you became alive. and in that way you could almost be envious that boothill was no more human than you were yet he still had control over his future.

the lucio nation army has decided to back off (same anon as before- hiya~) and now we feast. how about some cassidy cuddles?

FIVE MORE MINUTES – COLE CASSIDY X READER

Soft is the very last word he’d use to describe himself, but you know it for sure: your Cole Cassidy is a total softie. 

CONTENT.⠀gender-neutral reader. just fluff. Cass calls you 'sweetheart' and refers to you as his partner. ~0,6k words

NOTES.⠀I'm so sorry for this horrendously late response LOL it's been a busy week. Here's a sleepy, clingy Cassidy for the soul <3

You don’t think Cole realises just how affectionate he is.

A pat on the back, a gentle clasp on the shoulder after a job well done, a noogie if he’s feeling playful. He’s changed a lot over the years, but he’s still the same man you love. He’s carefree, keeping tension off the air with his chatter. He’s close to the rookies, putting up with Hana’s teasing jabs or going through one of Zarya’s ‘easier’ regimens. He trains at the shooting range with Fareeha every Thursday. He tries to help Baptiste with whatever he can, even if he’s more distracting than helpful.

He’s not shy with physical affection—that much is obvious. He’s more careful with his superiors (as he should be, you think bemusedly) but with you?

Total free rein.

He kisses your cheek every morning, greeting you with a good morning, sugar that never fails to elicit a reaction from you. He kisses your forehead every night, holds you close against his chest as his fingers dance across your skin until you both fall asleep. He likes having his arm around your waist, loves letting your hands brush together when you walk side by side.

Soft is the very last word he’d use to describe himself, but you know it for sure: your Cole Cassidy is a total softie. 

If it were any other time, you’d tease him for it, but your love for him consumes your being entirely. You let the innate desire for him to be yours, heart, mind and soul, grow stronger every time he glances your way. You want to be the only one who gets to see him like this—asleep, at peace, at home. He’ll call you a sap if you ever say these things out loud, but the redness at the tips of his ears will betray him. Much like the smile on his face will.

The morning sun shines and peeks through the gap between the curtains as the day begins its course. Cole grumbles something in his sleep, not quite ready to start the day just yet, and languidly pulls himself closer to your body. You can feel his chest against your back, rising and falling with each breath he takes. It falls into a rhythm that lulls you into a state of tranquillity, but as much as you’d like to stay here, there’s a lot of work to catch up with today.

Begrudgingly, you push yourself into a sitting position. The sooner you get it done, the sooner you can rest, right?

“Cass,” you whisper, gently shaking him awake. “Get up.”

He blinks one eye open, his brows furrowed until his gaze lands on you. Relaxing and sinking deeper into the sheets, he wraps his hand around your wrist and pulls you back down. An endearing chuckle rumbles in his chest at the surprised yelp you let out.

“It’s our day off, sweetheart.” Sleep is still evident in his voice as he speaks. He leans forward to press a gentle kiss to the back of your neck. “Work can wait.”

You sigh in mock exasperation, though you don’t make an effort to pry his arm off your waist. “You promised to help out Torbjörn and Baptiste today, remember?”

“No clue what you’re talkin’ about.”

“Cass.”

“Hmm.”

You bite back a smile. “You’re gonna prove Hana right, y’know. About you being a lazy bum.”

“Can’t I just spend the morning in bed with my partner?” His complaint is more playful than it is of genuine upset. With how close you are to him, figuratively and literally, you can just tell that he’s in a good mood. “Come on, sweetheart. Five more minutes.”

And his five more minutes will turn into ten more, fifteen more until someone inevitably comes to look for one of you and rings the buzzer at the door. It’s never five more minutes with him, but as he peppers soft kisses from your neck to the curve of your shoulder, you think you don’t mind spending the entire morning like this.

YOUR PART IN THE QSMP STORY ANIMATION WAS SO GOOD, OH MY GOODNESS. It took me a hot second to realize, but after that it was like, how could I have missed it? It was so obviously your art style, your version of Quackity, and it was so *good*.

It's amazing to see how much better your animation has gotten since the days of Your Obedient Servant and Tubbo and Quackity's 'don't trust anyone, not even me', but it's still so obviously your animation. It's just incredible.

All the kudos to you though. That was such a good MAP, and it was an incredibly pleasant surprise to see a familiar artist in the fray.

[Link to the MAP]

THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH!!! Yes that is me... it was such a good community to work with. I've never been involved in a MAP before and I'm so honoured to be a part of this! Please check out the entire multi-animator project, everyone is brilliant.

here's a bit of my process (I had to cut down on my final part due to my schedule!)

and some more testing gifs...

HUGE shoutout to the mods for being so accommodating, professional and kind throughout the entire process. I'm still here, okay!!! I love the MCYT community with my whole heart <3

yosuke isn't cool, he's cringe yet free.

yeah dude!!!!! Yu's a weird little man and he would only choose the second weirdest little man to be his (ai)boo

for serious tho: Yosuke's "cool" for the shit he doesn't try to do. He's not cool when he gets a fuckin' scooter or he trying to act smooth or when he thinks he's being "funny".

he's cool cause he's a loyal friend and cares bout his team and the people around him and manages to pull them together to do shit as a group. He's cool cause he took Teddie when he had nowhere to be in and cool cause he cares about Yu and Nanako and he's cool cause he lets shit roll off his back even though it hurts (and he does this because he's found something more important- friendship)

I’m curious to know, have you seen the reed900 movies?

I take it you want my opinion?

Although I'd ask you to be more specific -- pretty sure there are several Reed900 fan films out there -- I'm gonna assume you're referring to the Oct*punk ones. I haven't heard/seen any buzz about anything else in the fan film category.

The director used to follow me on X/Twitter many years ago. I've seen one of the actors liking my works, too. So I'm aware of them. I think I was one of the creators who inspired her fan films as she included some very specific things (speaking lines, concepts) that I haven't seen used anywhere else outside of my fic A&E. I could be wrong, but it caught my eye. It's always nice to hear that my works inspire.

That said, I personally don't like those fan films.

For anyone who can't handle constructive criticism, stop reading now.

It's a love story that's Reed900 in name and setting only considering that it directly contradicts canon. Niner is canonically described as "not likable, not sweet, but intimidating and scary." Maximilien's portrayal is none of those things.

I don't think we knew Niner's canon personality when these fan films were made -- most ppl still don't know Niner's canon personality, and frankly, most ppl (sadly) don't even care -- but that doesn't change that it directly contradicts the source material. I never vibe with works like that. Respecting the source material is my no. 1 priority in fan creations whether I'm creating them myself or engaging with others' works. If I published an original work, and someone contradicted it in their fan creations, I'd be livid. I want my vision of my works to be respected (...and I know I'm among many creators who feel that way.)

I have several other criticisms, but that one is the main reason.

(If anyone involved with the production reads this... know likes/dislikes are subjective. Considering the majority of the Reed900 fanbase seems to love your stuff, my 1 voice means practically nothing to you, so there's that. Your work is simply not for me and that's my right.)

[tired-fandom-ndn]

like, shit, i never really got into harry potter, but it's wild how people act like still being a hp fan in current year is uniquely evil (it's even funnier when people who like stuff made by equally shitty people say it like if youre a fucking south park fan shut up about the wizard books). my theory is that a lot of the people performatively shitting on hp now were annoyed at ppl being "too into" the series and now have the perfect excuse to shit on them (w/o knowing how hyperfixations work)

Totally agree. A lot of the people behaving that way are the same people who get into constant discourse and make a million posts about how you're evil if you do x or don't do y and suicide bait people in post replies. Like it really is just another excuse to be a bully and hide it behind being "progressive." It gets real fucking exhausting.

[quins-makeshift-menagerie]

Why are you so closed off with your story? Other Mewtwo creators are very open with a lot of their plans.

That’s their choice! It’s mine to be more secretive about details.

Could you draw the “You’re stupid, I like that in a man.” Meme with one of your favorite ships?
