i wish sea monsters were real
#yeah there r cool big things in the ocean but what if they were even bigger.#nothing would make me happy like a squid or octopuslike creature the size of a cruise ship that also lived close to the surface#ok i cant actually visualize how big 30 feet is (size of colossal squid) so idk#But What If It Was Bigger. And Cooler#those ocean freaks r cool already i love them the way they are.#i just want to imagine living in fantasy world with real sea monsters#basilposting

I could wax poetic about why Viktor's League backstory is inherently more interesting and more thematically resonant than where they went with him in Arcane season 2, but the cold hard truth is
a man covered in grease and probably blood who builds his own body out of scraps with his own two hands, can in fact build any contraption out of dinted metal sheets and a few screws including a deathray, performs deeply inadvisable operations on desperate but consenting people with his own tools, generates a cult following against his wishes because of his ability to inadvisably help people but the power's all his now anyway so he may as well, wants to clean up and save the undercity but is (only sort of) misunderstood as a walking Geneva Convention violation a freak and a supervillain, torments his arch-nemesis on at least a weekly basis and probably homoerotically hunts him for sport, had his life's work misattributed to people in the ruling class and is angry and tragic about it forever, tries to rip out his own emotions and is unsuccessful but pretends like he was not, is actually oddly kind to children, and is at the end of the day still just some guy,
is just hotter okay
#arcane#viktor#viktor arcane#machine herald#arcane critical#viktor the machine herald#and yes it IS more interesting and more thematically resonant and doesn't unnecessarily launch the story's stakes into orbit#as usual i'm mashing his 2011 and 2016 lore together but that seems the natural course these days because there's good in both#the conversation around viktor's league changes is unfortunately mostly about appearances from what i can tell when really#the issue is themes and story and what is ACTUALLY cooler and more interesting as character writing#and not just -bigger stakes are automatically better- because they are really really not

Early Kinktober Announcement
HI EVERYONE! so as few of you already know I have a little tradition for kinktober, that this year I decided to bring over to Tumblr/ao3, and to anticipate a bit in the hopes of cooking up something in time since my october is going to be quiiite busy. My goal would be to make a drawing each week, featuring ideas, pairings or prompts that you, yes YOU 🫵 can come up with (and send me via ask/dm/whatever), that will be chosen or mix and matched depending on what strikes my Muse. i turned anon asks on just in case it helps the more shy commenters, but dont worry I won’t publish any ask or message I get about this!
Thank you in advance and have fun! I’m really excited to see what this year’s kinktober will bring <33
#my faavoriitee time of the year i kid you NOT#also alsoo the first week's prompts coincide with the beautiful gorjus ZUKKA THIRST WEEKEND#and i alr haveee about 4 drawings planned for that Occasion#do what u will with this info kgdk#but i can draw other paairings as well hint hint nudge nudge#or well. maybe more than a pair. bigger hint bigger nudge#should i have a tag for this?? ehhh#let's go with just#kinktober#until i workshop a cooler name#send post#also uhhh i hate to say it so clearly but for the sake of honesty…. mutuals please anon off.#i wanna know. i wanna give u precedence even#pspsps hiiii hellooo mutuals pspsps mwah mwah 🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲

Does. Does the Scoundrel know that the masters are all Runts. Is she aware that these idealized idols are outcasts among space bats?
factually? yeah, she probably knows. there's no reason why she wouldn't.
but she, well. she doesn't think about it. she can't let herself think about it.
#because if she thinks about it then her entire worldview comes crashing down around her and her life falls apart#and she refuses to let that happen :)#the scoundrel is very well practiced in avoidance. part of it comes from having a violant mind that easily spirals#and part of it comes from just. who she is as a person#ask#as far as the scoundrel is concerned all of the masters are perfect and know what they're doing at all times#sure they might have made some. minor mistakes along the way. but that's not important!!#they're so much better and cooler and happier than humans could ever dream to be!! they're awesome!!! they're perfect!!!!!#who wouldn't want to be Just Like Them?#also you gotta remember this is the guy who saw mr wines' entire fall from grace and got the worst possible takeaway from it#the scoundrel is not exactly one for acknowledging the bigger picture.#scoundrelventures#as i said. self-perpetuating spiral. refusing to admit the truth bc it means her lies wont last forever#fallen london

i know that for the undertale cafe, some people traveled like, a long ways to come to it and were probably disappointed because requiem is small and most people (myself included) never got to try the food beacuse they were always out of it cause since theyre so small they can't hold very much inventory. i'm sure for homestuck it will be a lot of fun just to see other homestucks in person, but like. if you have to get on a plane to come here, i do not know if that is quite worth it, to be honest. but maybe it is to you idk! just dont get your hopes up for something spectacular when it is really gonig to be just a little nerd cafe with mediocre drinks and most likely no food..
like, i... assume there wont be as many ppl as there were at the undertale one, but at the undertale one i stood in line outside for 3 hours before going in, and they asked us to limit your visit to 20 minutes so more people can get in. (this was just for the first week or so. we went back the next week, still during the event, and it was pretty empty and there was no line and we could stay as long as we wanted, so maybe wait til towards the end if ur traveling)
also there will probably not be good parking slsdfsd the parking garage is VERY small, you will probably have to find street parking and walk a ways.
i am just seeing people talking about traveling great distances to come here and im like. haha oh jeez not sure if u wanna do all that! but again, like, if u think it would be worth it just to hang out, then thats great! i hope it is worth it for that alone! i know i am going to have fun just being in homestuck cosplay in public again, personally, even if the event itself sucks!
edit: !!!! i made a twitter thread saying this same stuff and requiem replied with this:
not really any details but it sounds promising to me! this is only their third collaboration like this so it makes sense that they’re still just getting their footing. they are a nice little queer-owned nerd cafe doing their best :’)
#homestuck cafe#requiem cafe#very intrigued by what the fuck they mean by 'lifesize height chart' tho.#these characters dont have canon heights im so. what does that MEAN#but like when i was standing in line i overheard ppl saying they came from outside the country JUST for the event#THE PICTURE ON THEIR WEBSITE IS A TAD MISLEADING I THINK LOL#it makes it look bigger and cooler than it is#its kind of just a block of cement with fun decorations#I ENJOY IT!! I LIKE THE CAFE ON ITS OWN#we went there for juices birthday! its pleasant!#but yeah.#thats all just some words of advice from a local!#haha sorry im probably just paranoid

so does Stampede Vash wear the glasses specifically to keep light from reflecting off his eyes so that people can't see the Plant pattern because if so that's so hecking clever
#not yet ary#trigun stampede#trigun#me talking#my understanding based off of posts ive seen is that the pattern isnt a thing in the original#so if his glasses in stampede DO work to cover that up#then making them bigger than the og design isn't just updating the design to something thats cooler for 2020s fashion sense#it adds them to the list of 'things that are quirky about Vash until you know whats up with him and then you go OOOOOOOHHH.... HEY'#...so being caught up and watching episodes as they air has not served to make me normal about this show#my likes are fit to burst soon

thanks for answering!! the reason I had asked was because. well. ever since I found out the word doggone existed I've been reading your URL as Doggone Outlaw. I don't even know what that word means 😭 anyways your explanation is way more understandable than whatever the fuck I was thinking, so thanks for clarifying!! (P.S. if you think yours is generic, mine is literally a variation of a username I've been using since middle school (awkward_af) so. it's much worse than yours)
LOL. This is actually awesome and hilarious, and I want to steal it for multiple reasons.
I'm from Texas and this is definitely the place where one might say "doggone" as a softer way of saying "damn". Same for "doggone it" for "dammit", "dagnabbit" for "goddammit", or "dadgum" for "goddamn". Basically, if you want some cliche redneck character in a kids movie to curse, these work without offending certain parents while keeping it PG.
I don't think I've ever legitimately said doggone. I'm just not that kind of Texan. Nor do I have a horse or any other cliche Texas thing, but I know more than enough about redneck culture and have the family to prove it. If anything I use dangit if I'm not actually cursing (because I'm at work, or around kids or family).
I can totally see some random character yelling out, "I'm sick and tired of that doggone outlaw, Red Hood. He's crossed me for the last time!" while shaking his fist in the air. Maybe Jason's in Texas fighting racist vampires, and just blew up some biker bar after a big fight. IDK.
I'm now seeing some sort of Road House (1989) type of fic with Jason as Patrick Swayze's character, Steph as Kelly Lynch's character, and Roy as Sam Elliot's character. IYKYK. Though I'd have Steph being more involved in the action as opposed to just eye candy love interest. (BTW: I haven't seen the new Gyllenhaal remake so I have no idea what the dynamics are in that film).
So yes, feel free to think of me as that Dadgum or Doggone Outlaw. 🤠
P.S. @qwkwqrdf4ck, as someone who remembers the ancient days of AOL Instant Messenger I get the nostalgia of the teenage screenname. I can't for the life of me remember any of mine, but I respect you for keeping the memory alive.
P.P.S. I initially read yours as "quick-wick-erd...?" and then I read the f4ck and then it made sense. And that's more of a judgment on me than you. My generation was less creative. It was often our name, initials, or favorite character plus our age or birth year... or favorite number if there was already a GokuFan16 and its variants. It truly was the digital wild west back then and we were mostly unsupervised.
#dg outlaw answers#I feel like Road House's Dalton (Swayze) is Jason's future self after he quits being the Red Hood (or at least tries to quit)#I can also see him giving the “Be nice” speech... similar to how he was in training Selina's guys in Gotham War#and since Jason's canonically tall and built like a tank... what would the “I thought you'd be bigger?” equivalent be for Jason?#jason todd#Cooler/Bouncer Jason Todd

wish there was lore behind the box art that vyke is in bc i wanna know why he seemed to have killed ensha, jerren, and nepheli ( of the ones i can name from their clothes )
#wHAT are you doing sir#i like it tho keep going#it would've been neat if it was tied to anything canon tho lbr but it just seemed like a scraped concept#— ooc.#scraped idea of him being cooler than he is / bigger part maybe#one can dream..............................

i know muse's (literal) death was unceremonious and underwhelming but there is something thematically satisfying about the villain that made spectacles of his killings die in such a.. bland way
#it happened after his monologue about why he does it as well#unlike his art pieces#he had no real control over his own death#and also the way his actual art was drawn#they usually took up half a page up to entire two-page spreads#and the panel of his burning body was just in a corner lol#i thought that i was maybe reading too much into it until i remember that he says something along the lines of#“you're big! they're small!”#so that's interesting !#idk i was just kinda bothered that people were like#he died so lame!#and it's like Augh not really !?#the build up to his death had a lot to give that contributed to a bigger picture to think about with his character and i think that's#more fun to think about than “i wish he died cooler”#i do wish sam's battle with him was maybe a littlee bit longer though#also also it's kind of neat how no matter what type of backstory you want to give muse#it'd work either way#sorta#like if he had a tragic backstory it'd be like okay! he's regaining a sort of control in life he lacked before#but if he Didn't and was just bored (lol)#then that's him finding or giving his own meaning to life through death#actually i think that'd be neater#since his pieces were mainly commentary above all else#i think that's all i have to say#i am only confident in about sixty percent about what i said but it's finally all outyipee!!#a.talks

i’m hoping those plans got moved around after rei cancelled the drbs but i’m a little scared of this possibility lol
#this is vee speaking#like if we get the 3rd drb as the last drb then the next set of solos would also be endgame solos#which is what i’m really hoping for tbh lol#the other two songs could be group songs of however they could split the og divisions or division all stars songs#but most division all stars songs are a separate release and not an album thing#like glory or dust was its own release!!!! but counterargument!!!! cross a line was album based which could be those two if so!!!!#i’d much rather get two eps with short group songs that form a bigger picture once you play them side by side tho#that’s a lot cooler and doesn’t continue to leave out nagosaka lol

Honestly I got no respect for people who don't have room in their heart for both Sliggoo and Goodra. Why must they fight? Why can't we love both??? Why can't we appreciate the Pokemon families where every stage has a distinct personality and execution. Who the fuck is out here saying they prefer lines that are just a linear point A to point B progression. Same for Dragonair vs Dragonite Grovyle vs Sceptile Dusclops vs Dusknoir honestly y'all are just mega haters on middle stages without realizing it. Fanart that reinterprets Goodra as just Sliggoo But Longer And Bigger makes my eyes roll like a hampter wheel because I Cannot stand Pokemon lines where it's just the same guy getting bigger twice a la Pidgey or Vanillite.
#ks talks#pokemon#this is soooo not related to anything I just get these periods where I wax poetic about middle stages#and I really don't don't like it where people are like “man I don't like what this pokemon evolves into”#and that's fine and valid#but then their reinterpretation is “okay what if it was just the same pokemon but bigger and cooler :)”#like ummm no I would rather have an uglier worse evolution that has a distinct personality and appeals to more people#than The Same Guy But Again#like I gotta respect the magmortar fans out there even though I think it's a crapass design compared to magmar#and I'd rather have magmortar than Magmar But He Is Taller And A Dragon Type And Has Spikes#not to extend this insane tangent even further but I think this is why I don't really like annihilape despite lovvving primeape#because it's kinda just primeape but a ghost type? like whatever

watching the alien prequels, Prometheus was pretty good, but I think the concept probably would have been stronger if it wasn’t a capital A Alien movie, also I wish the human tech looked clunkier like in the originals but that’s ok. I guess. 😔 Starting out Covenant and I don’t care for the guy taking over as captain.
#c’mon man if you take over after a big accident that kills the captain and you’re like NO mourning get back to WORK of course the crew won’t#like you man!! it’s probably not bc you’re religious#interesting that these are more focused on religious/philosophical points#reminding me of contact a bit#we’ll see how it goes#I find I have less patience for sequel/prequel/franchise films that try and explain things#I’m a big fan of hinting at bigger things but not actually explaining them#having an internal sense of worldbuilding/logic but it’s not necessarily all fleshed out for the audience#I find that wayyy more interesting#bc moooostttt of the time the explanation makes the mysterious initial thing less interesting#but. we shall see#there will be aliens to look forward to either way#.doc#hmm bc tbh the big bald engineers that made humans is way less interesting than the mystery of what the fuck was going on in the original#alien ship#all that big completely alien (aha) structures and creature from a long dead civilization that you’ll never understand is WAY cooler sorryyy#alien
