#BECAUSE THAT DYNAMIC IS SO GOOD

there are so many ābestā AUs and the ones I label as they best definitely change according to my mood but right now the BEST kind is the kind where the AU reveals that in different circumstances the two characters end up in completely opposite roles in their dynamic because the SOULMATISM of it allāthe realization that these people respond EXACTLY the same way to thingsāTHATS EVERYTHING TO ME RIGHT NOW
#OKAY YEAH THIS IS FUELED BY ME GETTING OBSESSED WITH THE PREMISE OF MY OWN WIP blablablah self obsorbed blablablah touch grass#DO I LOOK LIKE I CARE#the prev post about enemies who make each other who they areāYEAH I MEANT IT WHEN I SAID IT IMPACTED ME#BECAUSE THAT DYNAMIC IS SO GOOD#Iām obsessed with the character everyone sees as the darker one being CANONICALLY hopeful to a fault#being SO DRIVEN by the need to do good that it perhaps morally corrupts him beyond any return#and Iām OBSESSED with his counterpart being the OPPOSITE she said āyes Iām cynical what about itā AND SHES SO RIGHT FOR THAT#and Iām OBSESSED with moving their interactions to a time BEFORE his hope was corrupted. BECause the thing is she can actually be#the very thing that turns his hope into reality. She just needs to STOP BEING SO CYNICAL#AND I LOVE THAT#Aleksander: canonically is fueled by his hope to build a sanctuary for those unprotected by society and those literally hunted for their#existence (canonicaly spends hundreds of years doing this)#Alina: canonically assumes the worst (yes sheās valid Iām not saying sheās not. sheās also just very oh no looky here another FUCKING THING#TO DEAL WITH) (at SEVENTEEN YEARS OF AGE)#and yes I know these two people are actually terrible for each other (specifically uhh aleksander is terrible for Alina) but the IDEA that#in different circumstances they wouldnāt beā#LET ME HAVE IT OKAY LET ME HAVE JT#itās just funny that aleksander is like that because of the hundreds of years he spent learning that loss is inevitable and it might as well#serve a purpose#and Alina is like that because sheās had enough shit by age seventeen that sheās just gonna fuck shit up if one more thing goes wrong#also no in this Alina does not become a despot thatās not the point the point is she becomes incredibly world weary and apathetic while#aleksander is the one who is doing his damndest to help the world

i know itās like years old at this point but i love that one collab mumbo and grian did with tommyinnit bc itās like the single most concentrated example iāve seen of mumboās Chaos Nullification Powers
you get to see a bit of it on hermitcraft, mostly via his interactions with grian, but until seeing that collab it didnāt really hit me just how completely mumbo can no-sell other peopleās attempts to control a situation. tommyinnit is possibly the single shoutiest, most chaotic minecraft youtuber out there, and in most videos iāve seen he pretty much overwhelms everyone else and sets the tone for interactions because of this. but mumbo just. doesnāt let him. no matter how much tommy escalates in intensity, mumbo reacts with *exactly* the same energy he always does. grian largely comes across in the whole video as annoyed and reluctant to engage with the whole thing, but mumboās not even affected. he just rolls with anything he finds funny and basically ignores anything he disapproves of, only seeming more and more unflappable the harder anyone tries to get a rise out of him.
AND imo, this is the key to my favorite interpretation of him as a character
see, when the people around him are being more reasonable/calm, i think mumbo often comes across as anxious and a bit easily overwhelmed. the thing is, his nervous wet cat vibes do not scale. he has one setting. his responses to the last life āah-ha!ā jokes and to hermitcraft 8 starting to crumble to pieces under a falling moon are almost identical.
mumbo jumbo is inexorably and eternally Just Some Guy, but that gets stranger and stranger the weirder his surroundings become. the giggly incredulousness that makes him an easy target for goofy puns looks Very different when itās also his reaction to the impending end of the world.
#anyway yeah i have this whole idea in my head about mumboās friendship with grian from a characterization standpoint#bc i agree with the somewhat? common consensus that being friends with mumbo has made grian softer and friendlier over time#but i donāt think it was in a āreflecting back the kindness heās being shownā way#i think itās because the more harsh and chaotic you try to be towards mumbo the more you feel ineffectual and out of control#and grian canāt handle it so he slowly becomes nicer until he feels like theyāre on equal footing again#like donāt get me wrong i think they genuinely are good friends#and i donāt think this is necessarily something mumbo is doing on purpose#but i think the power dynamic going on under the surface is much more bizarre and weighted in mumboās favor than it seems at first glance#mumbling

I'm not going back to Gusu with you.
[First]Ā PrevĀ <ā-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan wangji#wei wuxian#Those last two high effort comics where just a warm up for this masterpiece. My true magnum opus.#I was originally going to do this gag as a 'alternate version of comic 155'#Then I realized that they have the 'Come back to Gusu with me' conversation twice. So here we are!#I did consider having WWX say 'I'm not going back to gusu with you' in the comic for the better plot accuracy.#I'm invoking the rule of silly by having Wei Wuxian read between the lines of 'Come back to Gusu with me'.#Because it does feel like a confession! It is a confession of 'I care about your safety and I worry for what may happen.'#It is also poorly articulated. You can't really blame WWX for reading into it as 'LWJ is just another person trying to control me.'#The relationship between them is not good! It is two parties who genuinely want to be closer with each other but cannot communicate it.#You can't really have what makes these two work so well as a dynamic without the past history of:#āBack then I really wanted to be your friend.ā They are a *missed connection*!#WWX reaches out and LWJ rejects him. And now when LWJ reaches out it is WWX who pushes them apart.#It is a tragedy about the consequences of being out of tandem and realizing what you want far too late.#The momentum of WWX's downfall is far to fast to reverse now. It's a 'When' not ''if' question.#Back to your normal style of PD-MDZS next update. Thank you for reading!

Sequel to Sunshade
#my art#warrior nun#wn fanart#avatrice#still set in:#au where they get to go home and take a nap at the end of s2#Ig I felt bad I drew a fluffy snuggling scene and still didnāt let poor B rest#my painting āsunshadeā is structured around a visual pun#(cause people call B a āsunshine protectorā and funny if more literal)#but what makes avt so good is how A coaxes B out of the protector role and A is given space to not always be sunny#the sunshine protector/knight-princess dynamic is exhausting for both parties (which is why JC/ Ava doesnāt work)#so hereās the natural follow up#couldnāt think of a good pun for the caption though. Moonshine?#I actually really enjoy where the series left off. Their relationship is thematically complete.#(<- Burying this deep in the tags because I know nobody agrees with me)#imerr fanart#me: Iām totally over WN ā also me:

If Sergeant John 'Soap' MacTavish has a dirty job to handle, he already knows his Captain John Price, will be there to clean it up with him, no questions asked. One thing I appreciate about MWII (and the thing with Shepherd in MWIII) and the og Call of Duty games is how we see Price as a morally gray characterāsomeone whose loyalty isnāt aligned strictly with duty, but first and foremost with his men. His loyalty lies there above all. The Task Force is called 141 (one for one), but heās always got their six.
(If you like it support me with REBLOGS- it helps always a lot to stay in CoD circle!)

I cannot believe the canon bkdk dynamic though.
Katsuki, completely whipped, 100% on board to spend the rest of his life with Izuku, living the dream as heroes.
Izuku, completely oblivious to his own worth, oblivious to how Katsuki really feels about him now, just so oblivious to it all.
#bkdk#bakudeku#straight out of a fanfic actually#I keep thinking about the āone fell first but the other fell harderā dynamic#and a lot of people say Kats fell first so Izuku fell harder#but I gotta say it feels like the reverse#feels like Izuku fell first#ages ago#when they were kids#heās just really good at compartmentalizing it#not thinking about it because itās not possible#thereās no way his symbol of victory would ever feel anything even close to live for a useles deku like him so itās no use even hoping#meanwhile Katsuki flipped a switch and went from 0 to 100 in a heartbeat#izuku left UA to be a vigilante and it put everything into perspective for Katsuki#and from then on he was a complete goner#thinking about Izuku constantly#thinking about him as he died#jump starting his own heart to come back and find Izuku#propelling himself across the country just to give Izuku one last push#planning to be with him for the rest of their lives#being distraught that Izuku lost his quirk again#listen#izuku fell first. Kats fell harder

horrible children who are. so so mean to each other
#tlt#the locked tomb#my art#precanon griddlehark dynamic is SO funny. the way they are just no-holds-barred absolutely AWFUL to each other.#the fact that harrow made fun of gideon for saying 'i love you' over her dead mother's grave so gideon nearly choked her to death#and then when gideon recalls this story in gtn she's just like 'yeah lol we were wild kids'#also remember when gideon responded to harrow being kind of bossy with 'your parents must have been so relieved to die' like#imagine saying that knowing full well her parents killed themselves in front of her when she was ten!!!! insane!!#there's no sense of going 'too far' between them. they casually hit what would be considered by most ppl to be 'too far' and then keep going#anyway i don't usually go in for characters-being-kids-together stuff but i will admit that childhood gid+harrow#following each other around absolutely terrorizing each other because they're desperate for each other's attention but also full of#hatred and vitriol#does compel me#like...2 very lonely very traumatized children with only each other for company. what will they do? ENDLESSLY TORTURE EACH OTHER!!!#and yet they are each other's emotional support person. its so good.

Blind side (Patreon)
#Doodles#UT#Handplates#Sans#Papyrus#Gaster#Sans closing his good eye every once in a while and keeping his blind eye open - obviously he does so in-game as well so it's a style-match#It's just interesting in the context of him being textually-confirmed blind in Handplates hehe#There's a level of vulnerability there! Not more than closing both eyes around someone - and potentially also distrust!#''I'm baring myself blind right now but /you/ don't need to know that'' - it suits him āŖ#Especially when he does it around Papyrus! Because obviously Papyrus knows about his partial blindness#But when he's trying to be duplicitous - the way he looks at him sidelong with his blind eye when he's trying to lie unsuccessfully ugh <3#And again-again it being about how much he trusts Papyrus! That he can be a little lazy or spacey and Papyrus will help him!#Also something about his entire right side being impaired - pawing around with his plated hand for something he can't see on that side#The dynamics! Internal and external! Very good like them lots#And then there's Gaster lol āŖ Throw him into the mix I'm sure it won't make a mess at all haha#I guess he's visiting? Just spacing out - he and Sans have a lot on their minds - separately haha#I do love how Sans pushes Gaster to be kind to Papyrus - very deservedly! He wants Papyrus to be happy of course#And he's obviously still angry with Gaster a lot but how might that present itself when Papyrus is Papyrus at Gaster hehe#Even just in that small jokey way of ''you tryin' to step on my turf?'' hehehe#Especially since the comparison wouldn't even come up if he had two functioning eyes hm?? Right Gaster???? Lol#Speaking of that scene and Sans' partial blindness tho ughhughuhg <3 <3 The fact that Sans stands with Gaster to his blind side#It's the vulnerability/distaste/confidence of it all! He's grown up so much it's all right there in how he holds himself#That he either trusts Gaster enough not to attack him - starting to believe him - or that he has enough faith in himself to protect himself#And only looking at him with his peripherals unless he looks directly at him hghhhgh I am Normal about shot composition I swear lol#Also I like how that last panel turned out lol - Sans just appears at the bottom of the steps like how's it going. care to gtfo thx

I just realized some people are confused about events in the alluded to past in Mouthwashing, particularly about how long the crew has been working together.
The only person who is truly new is Daisuke and itās why his dynamic with the crew and role in the story is very unique and somewhat distant. Curly didnāt just get Jimmy this job on the Tulpar, he got him the job with the Pony Express. Heās been his copilot for probably a couple of years but still not as long as theyāve been friends. None of them are new with the freight industry, Anya and Swansea especially have been doing this for years, together.
Jimmy is the newest on the regular crew, maybe just a few assignments, but itās not his first time working with them. I think itās just something important because this isnāt just one bad mistake that snowballed with giving Jimmy the job. None of them thought Jimmy would do anything, no matter how off-put by him they couldāve been, since he hadnāt done a thing since being there. Generally unpleasantness isnāt a crime and heād be aware of that.
It was a festering thing and a sort of forced trust they had to give him that he knowingly took advantage of. He was the black sheep and still a wolf under the wool. He expected when he lashed out, that he had been there long enough for it to be looked over completely. Got too comfortable in the space he inserted into and did a lot of damage with his claws when he felt he was going to get shaken out.
#I think acting like if Curly just didnāt give Jim the job this wouldnāt have happened is underplaying that theyāve all been working for PE#for a bit and that Jimmy got comfortable enough to do something horrible like#a lot of factors made the trip being out the worse parts of them but Jimmy was slowly letting his worse parts show and I think people assume#that this was one a few mission he went on with Curly and that he advocated for him completely when it was more likely#he pulled some strings so Jimmy could work right under him and stay out of trouble with a decent job and it back fired cause Jimmy is just#not a good person like I see people acting like his breakdown and choice to crash the ship was because this was probably one of the last#chances to fix his life and he couldnāt admit he fucked up soemthing literally handed to him so badly and cruelly#I think people forget that predators like Jimmy rarely do anything the first day. or week or month or year#they ingrain themselves into the schedule and dynamic and build a sort of stability that make it harder to knock them down or push back#he has Curlyās trust as the co pilot and as a friend#Swansea doesnāt like him but doesnāt trust him and Anya is just wary initially#he doesnt even attack her at the start of the trip itās implied it happens after the psyche evals and when she confides in Curly how#patronizing he is to her and her position. heās retaliating against a perceived slight to his stability to him it was pure act of power and#anger because heās at his core an avoidant bully who canāt take responsibility#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#jimmy mouthwashing#I didnāt want this to be a Jimmy post but it is#more so about how abusers like Jimmy work but I digress cause most of itās in the comments

Hi hello i just finished Hunger Pangs and i am so mad I donāt have any more to read now?? Pls let me know how the second book is looking i am very much in Need and in Must Have for this book pls i beg.
I loved the 3 main doofuses and i loved the little book puns and easter eggs (Lydia and Kitty Collins is it i see you i see what youāre doing), i loved the little pepperings of politics and doom that made it into what was mainly a romance book until they just went WHAM PLOT NOW
Also there were several things that made my chekhov gun spidey sense tingle and i NEED TO KNOW WHICH ONES REALLY ARE CHEKHOV GUNS PLEAAASEEEEE
She's in the slow cooker still, but we're getting there.
And thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it and want more. As for the Chekov guns, it's probably all of them lmao. I am not subtle š
. (Except for puns, and even then not really.)
#hunger pangs asks#it would have been more but I recently ripped out 20k because I realized the character dynamic makes more sense in the third book#there was a lot of swearing#but it was a good thing to catch before I committed to it so hey ho
