#ANON I'M SO SORRY

[foodtruckery]

Your abo idea is so good and you mentioned the idea of ford obsessing over who else has helped stan with his heats but what I'm wondering is if ford would obsess over /him/ helping. Wondering what wouldve been different if stan presented when they were younger (then probably dismissing it thinking how their father wouldve blown a gasket) or if stan had called him and told him when it happened or if he had known even when he came out of the portal

I think abo stancest has potential for some fun dynamics and your characterization of those too would make it soooo good omega old man stan who's still just as much of an ass as he usually is and it both drives ford up the wall and makes him a little bit more crazy with his scent

oho you've activated my "i haven't stopped thinking about this idea and have more to share than you asked for" trap card! (and you've given me an excellent excuse to step away from halloween party prep for a minute, so thank you, anon!!) btw this is. so much fucking longer than i meant for it to be, i'm SO sorry.

but absofuckinlutely ford would be as haunted by that thought as i am by this whole premise. i'm putting this behind a cut JUST because i managed to ramble for 1,000 words about this because it is eating me alive. please know that if i hadn't been forced to spend the last several days locked in on party planning, there would already be something more coherent in the works for this lol.

i like to think that when he was younger, ford would've been just. obsessed with the fantasy of it all, right? when he's still heavily embedded in that society and wrapped up in the expectations of how alphas are supposed to be, how omegas are supposed to be. how could he NOT think about the ways things may have been different. what stan would have smelled like with that sweeter omega edge, or how much different, how much wetter, it may have sounded when he overheard him masturbating in the dark when stan thought he'd fallen asleep.

and what a perfect excuse to finally act on those less-than-acceptable feelings he's had about his brother. sure, it's not the done thing, but they're already so close, and they share all their space, and who would really blame him for being completely overhwelmed by all those pesky new instincts when stan went into heat for the first time?

but that's fantasty land, and older ford is the universe's smartest boy, so he knows that's obviously never going to happen. instead, i like to think our super intelligent idiot goes and develops a thing for betas instead, which he blames on the FWB thing he has going on in college with fiddleford and never inspects anymore closely than that. he's entirely too much of an intellectual to be fussed with all that secondary instincts nonesense, after all, and ford is NOT a natural caretaker/pack leader sort, can't stand the idea of some simpering omega expecting him to handle everything for them all the time, so it makes sense that he gravitates towards betas on the blessedly rare occassion where he seeks out a partner -- usually to get over a rut or something similar.

and then....well, there's the whole portal thing. and wouldn't you know it? not a lot of secondary genders in the multiverse! well, multi-genders, absolutely, but it's surprisingly rare to come across anyone else with the specific sort of secondary gender alignments from his universe. but that's even better, because it just separates him even further from the expectations he was always outside the lines of anyway.

of course, when he gets BACK, it's....hard to adjust to finding out that stan did, actually, present after he was kicked out left. but as an alpha. which...that makes sense! it's what they expected after ford presented, right? twins and all that. explains why they brawled right after he got home -- stupid, useless alpha hormones vying for dominance. and because smartest boy ford is so separated from all this by the time he comes back, it doesn't ever occur to him that stan would have to be feigning more than just his name and an ID card to impersonate ford for 30 years.

and why would he think stan was anything else, after all? sure, ford is a little rusty with identifying scents like these nowadays, but he isn't incompetent. stan smells like an alpha. and he sure as hell acts like one -- the worst kind, even. cocky, loud, physical, brash. ford definitely doesn't spend any time at all disappointed by this turn of events. and he certainly doesn't spend any other time fantasizing about bitching stan to make a point about reclaiming his home and his territory. he doesn't strip his dick to that idea at all.

needless to say. by the time things...settle down, ford's made some peace with the situation. he's found enough middle ground with stan that he isn't willing to fuck up rebuilding some kind of (loathe though he is to admit it) pack with his brother over a fleeting fantasy.

having all of that upended again, though? it's like turning a tap on full blast after you just got the damn thing to stop dripping. hard to hold on to the "i prefer to fuck betas" and "i am over this obsession with my brother" mentality when you're face to face with the bedrock of every lewd, overindulgent sexual fantasy you had between presenting and college. and how could he not consider all the things he missed, that could have actually been within reach?

where the hell was stanley when he went into heat for the first time? he wouldn't have known to start suppressents or pheremone drugs before that. did he ride it out alone in the back of that damn car someplace, getting slick all over the upholstery and his hands? did he think about ford to get through it? or did he find somebody to help out? to give him a door to lock or, worse, a bed to share. if he was fucking a stranger through his first heat, did he think about ford to get through that?

what if he'd said something the night he came to gravity falls? hell, by that point, ford can't even remember how stan had smelled that night, not in the midst of the torture and the paranoia and the insomnia -- if he hadn't been in the middle of bill's psychological warfare, would he have noticed that stan had presented? or would he have fallen as easily for whatever drugs stan may have been hiding behind then as he did when he came back?

but if he had noticed, would it have changed anything? it probably would have made things worse if it had, of course. bill knew all about stan and, worse, the fantasy of stan of ford held on to all those years. realistically, it would only have been horrible if stan had shown up on his doorstep halfway being dragged into a heat. but the idea of it -- of fucking stan through it in the basement instead of fighting over the portal and his journals. well, that's a nice thought.

it does beg the question, though: if ford can't remember how stan was presenting that night, there's a chance he hadn't been masking as an alpha yet. and even if he was, ford knows enough about the illicit drug trade to know that it's never a sure thing. did stan ever lapse? 30 years is a breathtakingly long time to be on those sorts of drugs, and they can't have all come from reputable places or been easy to get a hold of. especially in the woods in oregon.

it's clear with the situation now that being off those drugs has pointed and rather immediate consequences. does that mean that stan went into heat in the shack at some point? maybe multiple points? if it happened early on, would he have nested in ford's room, with whatever might have still smelled like him? or did he find someone in town to help? worse, was there someone in town who helped regularly when this sort of thing came up? and most importantly if so, who?

ford has QUESTIONS to say the least, but he is taking all of this QUITE WELL GIVEN THE CIRCUMSTANCES, thank you very much.

Angeal:*jiggles keys to get Zack to focus on him*

Sephiroth:*uses a squeaky toy*

Genesis:*snaps fingers*

Cloud:*whistles*

At first it's funny, sure, even Zack will admit that. But over time he starts to wonder—is that really how his friends see him? As some inattentive, dumb kid incapable of responding to verbal cues?

He starts to reminisce on the past weeks. He has been overly forgetful lately, and maybe he did space out during that Kalm mission and forget to bring his materia entirely, but that doesn't mean he's stupid.

Angeal jingles the keys once more to grab Zack's attention, and this time the cacophony of the metal corrodes his eardrums and makes him want to rip his own head off.

Genesis snaps his fingers again, and Zack finds himself fighting back the urge to break them.

Cloud whistles. Zack just looks at him, a silent plea to tell him why he does this, why he can't just use his name. He wants to shake his best friend and tell him that "He's here, he's coherent, and that sometimes he just spaces out."

Sephiroth uses the squeaky toy one last time. Zack flies at him, unable to control the wave of fury that washes over him. He screams, the pent-up emotion bubbling out of him in ugly screeches as he knocks the toy out of Sephiroth's hand.

He pins the older man to the wall, feeling his fingers dig into Sephiroth's skin as the wall cracks beneath him. It's the first time Zack has ever seen Sephiroth look stunned—scared, even. As for Sephiroth, it's the first time he's seen Zack cry.

Tears spill from his blood-shot eyes.

"ZACK!" He yells at him. "JUST SAY ZACK!" He chokes. "I'M NOT A DOG, SEPHIROTH!"

Sephiroth only manages a weak nod as he forces his own mouth shut.

original King Dragon Sovereign!reader [like nibelung] who’s powers were taken by the Primordial One then cast and trapped into/in the abyss when he(they?) couldn’t kill KDS!Reader

(humanoid w/prominent dragon features please~)

^ KDS!Reader meeting FL in the abyss (maybe on an exploration for the Fatui, maybe when Childe originally fell in, maybe they knew eachother before Childe! the choice of lore is yours!)

mainly inspired by a plot idea that’s been eating at my brain for the last month or so~ feel free to take the idea in whatever direction you please!

anon, my dear, i won't lie to you. for a split second i actually, genuinely thought that "Nibelung" was a really janky spelling of Neuvillette i'm so sorry

it's cold and dark and claustrophobic in the Abyss, and you hate it. hate it and everything around you, especially that horrible sneering god and the rest of your kind. what once was a proud race of dragons now reduced to just a few including yourself, and yet they still had not a single thought towards the rest of the world. admittedly, you can't even say that the Abyss is a particularly bad place to be right now, with the land above equally as devastated. it's still awful, and you despise the whispers that crawl up your spine and the craggy vines that threaten to entangle you, but there's some semblance of life in the air engulfing your torn wings and battered scales. the ancient blood running through your veins keeps the worst of the Abyss at bay, and you can do nothing but sit and slowly pick at your injuries, everything aching in this diminished form

there's something watching you. something quiet and hidden in the shadows. your ears flick, a soft growl slipping from your throat, and the presence flinches in the dark. slow footsteps tentatively draw near, a crimson mask following suit as an Abyssal monster emerges from the gloom, tilting its head slightly. immediately you hiss, baring your teeth and claws. it jumps back with a yelp, whining pitifully as the beast slowly lowers itself to the ground, trying to seem unintimidating. you growl again as it inches closer, but the sound is quiet and pained. the creature finally sits at your feet, crouching low and looking up at you quietly before reaching out and gingerly placing something on your knee- a length of sturdy plant fiber. it sits back on its haunches again, watching you intently with a single crystalline eye until you struggle and wrap it around the worst gashes on your body

it purrs, and for a moment you almost purr too

he calls himself Foul Legacy, you find after deciphering his rumbling, chirping language, and he's a scion of the Abyss just as you are of the world above. Foul Legacy follows you determinedly no matter how many times you tell him to leave, whimpering and fussing over your wounds and trying to protect you while your power is depleted... or chasing your tail around as it whips back and forth, tapping his talons gently against your scales and fawning over your slit pupils and pointed ears. gradually he leads you up, pushing you forward towards that distant drop of sunlight and sleeping curled around you during your exhaustion, his glimmering wings draped over yours. you need the open sky, and he's always wanted to see the real stars, his dream now including you in his company whenever he imagines it. so he takes you there, guiding you out of the darkness and back to where you belong

you still hate the Abyss. but perhaps you don't hate everything in it, anymore

Do you think that Glitchtrap could infect a Pacific Rim Jeager

I assume this is how furries are made

[mcyt-rarepair-tournament]

Just wanna say: I was supposed to put QPR Missa x Phil somewhere in here but by the time I realized I'd already posted the poll and it'd already gotten votes. So to that anon that submitted them I am so sorry I meant to put them in here but my dumb brain got all scrambled trying to get all the posts up at once. Consider this your formal acknowledgement. Cheers <3

[fuckitwebhaal]

see when i started my durge playthrough i shipped them with orin and part of their backstory was their fucked up relationship

i was like yeah she’s my murder wife yk

so anyway then i found out they’re siblings :|

HELP. I'm sorry I did laugh a little bit at reading this. This is one of the reasons I don't encourage anyone to build a backstory before playing. I'm so sorry. I hope you have been coping well. I would love to hear what backstory you ended up making instead.

Also, they do call themselves siblings, but I think they are technically (great)uncle and (great)niece? It may just be an age thing between them that they call themselves siblings. Orin is the grandchild of Sarevok, who is a pure Bhaalspawn--that makes Durge and Sarevok (half)siblings, so... yeah. Great-uncle and great-niece. Love that for our Durges.

Hello! Im the anon who asked ab the next chapter and i truly didn't mean it with an attitude. I really apologize for making it seem like i was demanding something when in fact i was not. English is my third language and words sometimes don't end up having the same intention behind them lol

I don't really spend much time on here so i mostly just drop by peoples' accounts and see if my favourite series (is that even what it's called lmao) have been updated and i was just really looking forward for the next chapter.

I wish you a speedy recovery and lots of luck for your exams! Been there done that, i 100% understand.

oh anon, I'm so sorry

I think this was just a huge miscommunication between all parties. I struggle a lot when it comes to the tone of people, especially when it comes to over text when I can't hear what people are actually saying and I have to infer what they mean. i've gotten a lot of pushy anons so I assumed that was your intention and I'm so sorry for doing that

I'm sorry giving you an attitude, that was rude of me. I hope that you can forgive me and I hope that even after this you're still excited for the next update. I hope to get it out soon for you and for everyone else is waiting

please have a good day, make sure you eat and drink water.

[heketsbroodau]

(Same anon from the Christmas ask)

Alright, here you go my lady! *Gives an ungodly amount of (and I mean like several piles—one thick pile about as high as the bigger mushrooms in Anura per item—of everything listed) meat, trinkets, crystals, two huge statues filled to the brim with devotion and other things she and the froglets like* I wasn't quite sure which one you'd all prefer more so, I just got a little bit of everything, I hope you don't mind!

(The amounts are purely comedic, I have absolutely no idea how anyone would get this many of any of these)

Heket: Yes, that is... an impressive amount...

Froglets: MOTHER THERE IS SO MUCH MEAT! *O*

Heket: Yes, my children, so I see.

Froglets: MOTHER CAN WE EAT IT PLEASE WE'RE HUNGRY!

Heket: You can not possibly eat all of it, but of course you may eat what you can.

Froglets: YAY FOOD! 8D

Love your coloring and art style 💖 can I ask you a question how you get better at drawing? I'm new (year 2) and struggling with digital art off and on. It's only been two years I'm drawing digitally but I just want to draw better. Like even better. If you have advice or tips, that's awesome. Hopefully it doesn't come off the wrong way. But thanks in advance.

not me forgetting that I had asks on 😭 if you're still interested, here's the (extremely) late response (again, super sorry 😭)

In terms of coloring, there isn't a lot I can say (being a learner as well), but I think seeing how others color can be really interesting! Do they use reddish hues or blueish hues for shades? Or do they use both? I personally use a slightly desaturated salmon pink-ish color with a low opacity (also desaturated) sky-blue. It can help to try out a variety and finding what works for you!

example: (this is an old piece of mine and I used red and blue as my tools for shading)

The same can be said for base colors. For those, I recommend color-studies and seeing how relative colors can influence how you perceive the entire piece. Rather than focus on the colors as separate entities (blue as blue, yellow as yellow), it's really helpful to instead look at it instead as something meant to intermingle with (if that makes any sense 🥲).

In a blue-prevalent piece, straight-up grey might look reddish or even pink. In a purple piece, the skin-tone might look like light-magenta than a peachy color. Yet, when you look at the piece as a whole, it definitely looks like a skin-tone.

example: you can tell that the skin looks like a skin tone, but when you actually pull it out and look at it in comparison to a peachy tone, it's purple! And this is because of the idea of relative colors. Against a white background, a color might seem saturated and dark, but against a dark background, the same color might seem super light.

For lineart (if you do them at all), it might help to experiment with brushes and thickness of lines! Do you prefer boxy lines? Smooth lines? Thick or thin lines? It might seem redundant, but you'll eventually find yourself a style that fits you the best, even if it doesn't seem that way ^^

Another tip I have is that if you have a bunch of artists you really like (whether that be their composition, style, coloring, etc), examine what exactly you like about them and try to imitate it and see how well it works for you! If it doesn't, then that's fine, but if it does, then thats even better!

If you have artist mutuals, do the 'friends' artstyle challenge'! You might learn something interesting that might take your fancy and at the worst, you'll just have more experience under your belt when it comes to style :D

Though it may seem like everyone's saying this and it feels of little use, studies (whether that be pose or coloring) will help a lot! Also, try tracing over those free dynamic pose photos if you want to improve in the aspect of anatomy! Try see where limbs are placed and how they work. It's sort of like seeing the answers to a math question: once you know the answer, you can work backwards to see how to get it :D

Sorry for the delay and super sorry if this isn't of any help at all 😭 Honestly, I don't really know how to do the stuff I do at all, either. Half of the time, I'm just winging it and tweaking stuff until it looks decent, but I hope this helped!

(Also, really really sorry for not replying 😭)

[faffreux]

it's weird to be attracted to an ugly frog like wtf is even your taste in men

i won't argue with you about whether or not fawful is ugly but it is weird yes, i agree

i have long accepted that i am weird

Someone eats Sephiroth’s big mac in front of him, while annoying the shit outta him.

SOLDIER Vlogging Shenanigans pt. 45

[The video starts with pure motion blur. Zack is laughing so hard he can't hold the camera up. When it finally stills, Zack films his own face and there are tears rolling down his cheeks]

"I read Sephiroth an ask one of you guys sent." Zack desperately tries to catch his breath. "And—Sephiroth, what did you just ask me?"

[Zack pans the camera around and points it at Sephiroth, who's sitting at his desk, and Angeal quietly snickering in the opposite seat. Sephiroth looks confused]

"Who's Big Mac?" Sephiroth asks innocently.

[Zack and Angeal lose it. They're both screaming, grabbing each other and laughing. The camera falls to the ground with a thunk. The video ends]

Please share your idea you always have such amazing takes 🙏

fuck nasty!Ghost who shows you how much he misses you.

You were out running errands, leaving Simon, home from his latest deployment, to his own devices. All was going well—so you thought—until you heard the telltale ping of your phone and saw that he had texted you.

Simon probably needed you to pick something up for him on the way home. Mm. Doable. You opened the text under that innocent assumption.

And you know what they say about making assumptions.

Because right there in front of your very eyes was a picture of underwear. Your underwear. Your favorite pair of underwear. Your favorite pair of underwear you'd been searching for while you were getting dressed this morning.

They were covered in cum. Simon's cum.

You receive another text not even a second later: Miss you, sweetheart.

It was a miracle you didn't drop your phone.

[egophiliac]

do skully have pokemon?

Pumpkaboo is the obvious one, but y'know, sometimes the obvious one is the right one! (we'll say SUPER SIZE Pumpkaboo, just for fun. big pumpkin for big skeleton boy.) and another person actually also suggested Greavard, which I somehow hadn't considered, but feels so perfect that I feel like I should have. dangit.

(they can also have little Nightmare Suit costumes :D)

I resurrected my tumblr just to post this
