character dynamic ask game

qs focusing around how two characters interact with & see each other. any kind of matchup (partners, friends, mortal enemies, etc.) is fair game!

rules: send two characters and a question (or more!)

what were A's first impressions of B? were they mostly correct or have they changed?

if asked to describe B to a stranger, what would A say? are they mostly truthful, or is there anything they omit?

what's something A thinks in their head about B that they would NEVER tell them out loud? alternately, what's something they want to say to them but haven't/can't, and why not?

how does A refer to B (first name/last name/pet name/title/etc) in their head, to them directly, and to others? are they different? why?

A has to get B a [birthday/christmas/whatever] gift. right now. what would they get? how long would they spend thinking about it?

what does A think B thinks of them? or, if asked to describe their relationship, how would they do it? are they right?

are there any habits, mannerisms, practices etc. A does because of B? anything they do because they saw B doing it, or got advice from them about it, or something rubbed off on them? alternately, are there any little things B does that annoy them?

is there anything they really disagree on? what are they most likely to argue about?

what do outsiders think their relationship is? do they consciously or unconsciously act different around others?

how well does A think they know B? are they correct?

what's something A knows about B that most people don't? alternately, what's something most people believe about B that A doesn't?

if B asked A for help, how likely would they be to give it?

if A needed help, how likely would they be to ask B for it?

for two characters that met very recently, how would their dynamic be different (if at all) if they had known each other for much longer? for characters that are childhood/longtime acquaintances, how would it be different if they met for the first time today?

what's A's absolute favorite (or least favorite) thing about B?

free space: what's your favorite thing about their dynamic, as a fan or as a writer?

-This is the last book of the series LIAB, please go read the other two books before this, or you will be very confused-

Zuko has been taken by the Earth Kingdom army to who-knows-where, and Sokka is determined to get him back.

But he can’t do it alone.

With Suki and the Kyoshi Warriors by his side, Sokka is headed to Ba Sing Se to find Katara and Aang so they can go rescue his fire bender.

Things aren’t as easy as he had hoped. Corruption, lies, and unknown horrors await them inside the city’s walls. None of this is helping Sokka’s mental well-being.

Hakoda and his men face a problem of their own as Azula approaches with the intentions of making it rain fire.

Sokka and Zuko will both find themselves having to reintegrate back into a life they thought they left behind, with people they hardly remember. It isn’t easy for anyone, especially when they don’t recognize the person standing in front of them.

I don't really talk about my system that much on this blog, mostly because I forget that pluralkit doesn't work on Tumblr and my posts are not automatically labeled with my name on here

[loveletterworm]

Omg these are from like a million years ago (this july) and i never posted them but can you guys look at this space core gijinka i drew at some point i just found him randomly again looking through my art folder. I just think he's so cutes he's a little astronaut guy. That's awesome.

Scavacule is so fun because you get so many dynamics between different pairs packed into one big dysfunctionally functional relationship that despite everything somehow WORKS

[unsupervisedsoup]

another one.

funny thing, i'm much too terrified to write the story itself, so the draft just simmers in my docs and then i throw-up the scenes on here

(approaching tangent territory)

i had absolutely no design for the gods at all, not even the owl-mask wearing one. just made it their default because barn owls specifically freak me out. and masks in general are a literal symbol for anonymity but when added with cloaks, it just gives a sense of mystery i really wanted the character to have

same goes for the three to four other gods, there was no planning beforehand, i mean it turned out well anyway

of course i wouldn't leave them without backstory, that's what the animatic i made was about but i don't think i did too good of a job with showing it. sorry, if ever that was the case, i'm still getting used to the drawing part of stories

i just hope it'll improve enough that people get what i'm saying either in writing or illustrating. and yeah, steer clear of barn owls

that's about it, thank you for whoever decided to read through all of this

One last comment on the marriage situation before I’m done. It’s always rubbed me the wrong way that people look down upon, judge or laugh at fans who are upset that their favorite is getting married. The whole “he was never going to marry you” line is so condescending and diminishing of peoples very valid feelings. People are allowed to feel what they feel — especially when their favorite is marrying someone 16 years younger than them and who wasn’t legally able to rent a car without an additional fee and/or adult approval until a year ago and this image said celeb cultivated isn’t exactly what it seems to be — and they shouldn’t be made to feel bad about it. I’ve never been in the camp of blindly accepting your favorite celebs choices or that not agreeing/liking it makes you less of a fan.

BUT being upset, sad, whatever is different than actively bullying and harassing his partner, his family and her family.

You can be upset and hurt while not resorting to calling that person names or wishing ill upon them. At the end of the day, he’s a grown ass man and can do whatever he wants, you don’t have to like or respect it and you are allowed to be mad/unhappy with his choices. But at the end of the day it’s his choices and harassing him/her/their loved ones isn’t gonna help.

So mourn and be sad, but don’t be a dick or a lunatic about it. What you feel is valid but that doesn’t give you a pass to express those feelings to these REAL people on their REAL relationship.

Supermarket Poke Bowls

For reference, it's been months since I wrote a recipe. This recipe has, by default, no raw fish, but you are welcome to prepare raw fish at your own risk to add. It also has rice, so I don't know if it's gluten-free. This is ultimately a modular recipe, so you can change out anything you like for other items, but this is my recommendation. Some items might be less accessible at an average supermarket, I'll mark them with an asterisk (*) to indicate them. Ingredients: Cooled/Leftover Sushi Rice* or white rice (short or medium grain) Cucumber Carrot (You can use shredded carrot if you don't wanna cut your own) Half an Avocado Pre-cooked tail-off frozen shrimp Smoked salmon (most packages at the store are pre-cut) Imitation Crab Meat (I used flake shape but stick/"leg" shape works too with some cutting) Optional: Pickled Daikon Radish* (there's not really any good replacements, but it's also an acquired taste in my experience. It's really sweet.) Optional: Nori* (Like the little snack seaweed stuff, seasalt flavour is probably the best in my opinion.) Optional: Toasted sesame seeds Optional: Sriracha* (I hear there's some kind of shortage? If you know any alternatives you can use that, but vinegar-based western hotsauce is not a good substitute here. You can also just not use it if you don't want spicy.) Optional: Japanese mayo* (Regular mayo also not a good substitute, but my local supermarket carries it at a cheap price recently) Sushi rice addendum: Sushi rice is of course the uncooked sushi rice, the water needed to cook it, and then cooking sake, rice vinegar, and mirin. I don't know the exact amounts you want for these things; for 2 cups raw rice i used 2.5 cups water and 1/3rd cup cooking sake, 1/3rd cup rice vinegar, and I think 1-1/3d cup mirin. (You can sub out any of these ingredients for equal parts the other ingredient, except maybe using all rice vinegar or all cooking sake.) I set it to boil, and once it reached a boil turned the heat off for 1 minute, then simmered it for 20 minutes. Then I folded in the mixture and let it cool- then I made sushi rolls with it, and used the leftovers for the poke bowl. TLDR: Cook rice as per instructions and if you have the stuff you can make it sticky rice by adding specific stuff to it. There are other alternative sticky rice mixes you can use on the internet too.

Equipment: Whatever you need to cook the rice (Rice cooker? Tall pot and stovetop?) A spoon or rice paddle Cutting board Paring knife/kitchen knife (Multiple, really) Spoon for avocado Bowl to serve in Instructions: Prepare rice as necessary (see above Sticky rice addendum) Cut cucumber in half or quarters length, then cut into thin paddle-like shapes (or just cut into julienne slivers, or however else you want to cut it)

Cut avocado in half, starting by stabbing it next to the stem and pressing the knife around in a circle around the pit. Then twist the hemispheres apart and remove the pit by chopping it with your knife to get it stuck on the knife. Afterward, remove the flesh from the skin with a spoon and place the flesh cavity-side down. Cut the flesh length-wise into slices. Cut the carrot into julienne slices or shred as needed; if you bought pre-shredded you can skip this step

If you have pickled daikon, cut it into roughly centimeter size cubes.

Thaw the frozen shrimp in the microwave for 15 to 60 seconds based on your microwave and the frozenness of your shrimp. Just cook until no longer frozen; maybe just in 15 second intervals. You don't want them to be hot, though.

Do any more additional preparation as necessary, such as cutting imitation crab sticks.

Add rice to the bottom of your bowl, enough to cover the bottom with at least half an inch thickness

Add your vegetables to your bowl starting with the cucumber at the 12 o clock position, and your carrot at 11 o clock, and avocado between them and yourself. Add the daikon if you have it at the 2 o clock position. at 1 o clock add the thawed shrimp, then add your smoked salmon at the 7 o clock spot, probably overtop the avocado. Then add the imitation crab at the remaining space.

From here, you can optionally drizzle the mayo and sriracha, shred the nori sheets up with your hands and place it in the center, then add sesame seeds.

Note: this photo features an additional ingredient that is not easily found, tobiko (fish eggs). It's a raw fish ingredient and I don't actually count it as a necessary part of the recipe, just decoration.
