Kingdom Hearts 2 - Twilight Town - Mansion Basement
#kingdom hearts 2#kh2#twilight town#scenery#my gif#when wandering around i felt these rooms looked so cool that i needed to make a set about them#interesting how this area even gets its own custom graphics for the command menu#the room in the second to last gif is my favorite it has such an interesting feel to it but it was difficult to capture that#those pods are so mysterious#the novel hints at who else might have used them and it does make me raise an eyebrow but we haven't gotten anything concrete to back it up#even the pod sora slept in has those weird robot arms at the top... what's that all about#i want to make a post about the rest of the mansion because i have sooo many questions and i'm curious what you guys think about it

adulthood is being really really really excited because your neighbor, while moving out, dropped off like 300 bricks + a tub of polymeric sand on your front porch to do with as you please because they had extra (and i imagine giving them to us was less distance than taking it to the dumpster)
i'm gonna edge my garden AND extend our concrete patio with brick paving!!! fuck yeah!!!!
#i'll dig out the bit of the garden that's right next to the concrete patio. pave it. and send all the extra dirt to the rest of the garden#for a RAISED BED#do y'all see the vision#i will have to buy about 100 bucks worth of gravel to do the paving right#but this saved me like 300#not to mention! i'm composting now! the garden next summer is gonna be lush as hell~#me

actualy dutch running away at 15 haunts me a little bit because when you think of him young you tend to think of him in his 20s instead of a 15 year old whos thrown himself into the world with no plan. where would he sleep?? i doubt he knew how to make his own tent. what woukd he eat how would he bathe?? did he sneak into inns or hide little caves. little dig outs inn the ground. arthur notes that dutch isnt a man to hide in a cave. but hes just 15. hes a child. hes probably never took another mans life. he doesnt know how to hunt. maybe hes just as charismatic. charming the hearts of cowboys and working women into giving him a place to stay. sharing their meal with him. was he all alone?? did he cling to what companionship he could?? like. what did he even do with himself. hes just 15. it was probably the smallest hed ever felt
#punching concrete. yes. arthur and john get oprhaned at even younger ages and have to fight for their lives. but there has been plenty of#discussion abt this. i wanna talk about my son#and no this isnt a “oooo poor baby hes never done anything wrong ever”#this is me thinking about a dutch who was nowhere near the man he is because hes fucking 15#hes 15#and hes stupid and got mad at his mother and threw himself into the world to chase a dream#hes a teenager. and he knows nothing#and i think that dutch always had that cruelty#that manipulative nature#its built in#but i think here#in this small sliver of freedom. he is guileless#and he is small#and the mountains are towering and the fields go on for miles#anyways#yeagh#young dutch van der linde i need to take him away forever. im going to raise him right

List of my (most popular) fics because sometimes I write things and I think they’re neat.
Children and the Raising Thereof - started as a 5+1 of Shouta being baffled and slightly alarmed as he watched Izuku make friends, became a series of cute moments with the erasermic fam that may or may not be complete.
Class 1-A Is Typing - chatfic with erasercloudmic trying to teach/raise a collection of incredibly feral children. Includes Izuku who won’t stop biting villains and Hitoshi getting people to brainwash themselves by using the tried and true “Pedo says what?” Method.
Concrete Dust and Found Family - Battle trials have more realistic consequences at least when it comes to letting off a explosion in a contained space. Tenya, Ochako, and Izuku try to come to terms with the aftermath of having a building dropped on their heads.
Incoming call - Oneshot where Izuku is a frequent caller into PYHU Radio, and does what they always do when things get bad. They call in and talk to Mic.
Of Heroics and Healing - mha/hp crossover. At the end of third year Lupin heads to the only person crazy/connected enough to get Harry out of Dumbledore’s reach. That person? Sirius’ distant cousin who just so happens to be a hero in Japan. Hogwarts is not ready for the force of nature that is Shouta Aizawa with someone to protect.
Shouta Aizawa and His Feral Children - Crack. Pure crack. The birth of Biblically Accurate Hawks. Class 1-A is a collection of feral little demons only barely held in like by 16 rules put in place by Shouta.
Take Two (With Feeling This Time) - EraserGum step parents AU. Shouta and Taishiro agreed to put a pause on their relationship a year ago when they found two orphaned kids after a villain attack why needed the stability of a parent who was all in. A year later the kids are settled enough that their parents are willing to try this relationship thing again.
Two Heroes, A Kid, and Seven Death Martyrs - Izuku has a deeper connection with OfA earlier on which means they now have seven ghosts hanging around them and acting like a weird mix of friends, mental roommates, and parents. The ghosts convince them to ask for help before OfA can kill them, which leads Izuku to extra lessons/quirk counseling with Present Mic and Eraserhead.
Who Saves the Savior - mha/hp crossover. Harry is betrayed by magical Britain (generally) and Draco Malfoy (specifically) one too many times and decides to pack up his kid and two of his siblings to head for Japan and the three convenient teaching jobs that happen to be waiting for them. Includes Exhausted and Over It MoD!Harry, Actual Feral Sunshine Teddy, and three dumbasses trying to navigate emotions through mountains of trauma.
Veritas - Izuku gets kidnapped, shown the first bit of basic human decency in their life, and decides that they are going to force the world into becoming a better place through somewhat shady but ultimately altruistic means. LOV redemption.
#the elf writes#mha#bnha#harry potter#hp#fanfic#who saves the savior au#two heroes au#veritas au#take two au#15 rules au#capture weapons and lightning bolts#incoming call au#concrete dust au#class 1-A is typing au#children and the raising thereof

LIGHT. LIGHT IN HIS EYES. LOOK AT EM BIG OLE EYES. LOOK AT HIM TOUCH HIS JERSEY.
GLORY BE TO THE MIKKSY SIGNED JERSEY RAAAAAAAAA
CanesWear Signing | 7.1.24
#niko mikkola#florida panthers#the mortifying ordeal of being known#you can tell how bad i was shaking from how much the jersey moves in my hands oh it was so serious for me its not even funny#“youre my favourite player thats why” “thank you” girl i would eat concrete for you without any hesitation#“new jersey?” me sweating profusely because i have to admit i had this jersey for a while now in front of his face oh god oh FUCK#“where do you want it? here or here?” “anywhere choose where anywhere” “ill do this way”#behold decision paralysis plus the constitution of a doormat with an awful aim to please vs the assuredness of a bull romping through field#“i mean its your jersey at the end of the day”#he says without thinking because he lacks a brain to mouth filter and immediately wants to slam his head into the nearest hardest object#but its okay it got a little smile out of mikksy so maybe my motor mouth can be used for good#my voice is so hoarse because i stood under for 7 hours and also loudly cheered like never before all throughout those 7 hours yesterday#also a lot of people had tickets for both mikksy and lundy or just lundy so thats why the line was moving slowly#so at one point they went OKAY WHO HAS TICKETS FOR JUST NIKO and i raised my hand like oo oo mee ☝️ and got rushed to the front#also a lot of the stuff he was signing was nonspecific posters and hats or other players jerseys (that already had other signatures on em)#which is why the attendant was like oh sweet jersey! and mikksy was like new jersey? because there werent many people at all#comparatively his signing was priced the lowest at 39 out of all cats players. the highest currently is benny at 60#does it suck his line was shorter. there was surprise when someone toddles in with a mikksy jersey. and that his signing was priced low?#yes ofc but also i didnt have to stand in the heat for long got ushered in faster and my wallet didnt cry so lets not kid ourselves here#there are silver lining to everything but anyways first hockey jersey and first signature on it acquire call that a man on a mission 😎👉👉#long tags i love mikksy i lot you understand right <3#also im never wearing this jersey again so i might as well buy a frame and ANOTHER mikksy jersey#to bad it also has my 30th ani cats patch on it too </3

I just read the most amazing fic in the whole world and now I’m like what if I made an au where the turtles were raised by Draxum and are desi
(Here’s the fic btw in case anyone wants to read it https://archiveofourown.org/works/45294655)
#bean babbles#seriously this fic is my new favorite thing#I’m obsessed with everything about it#I could not be more in love#I wish I was raised with a more concrete connection to Hindi culture#so I could make an au based off my own experiences#rather than having to do research#but also this could be a fun way to do some research

dont touch me im thinking of arakawa and sawashiro co-parenting again
#snap chats#i was pacing my kitchen thinking of this when i got that last ask ... manifestation IS real i swear#no concrete thoughts ... just a general vibe in the brain.... gerard way in my ears is NOT helping me think straight i fear#BUT LISTEN. do you think arakawa ever dropped a 'are we raising masato right' on sawashiro or somn like that#cause theres saying 'do you think im raising masato right' but throwing a cheeky WE in there .... wo Ah ....#i hope he did so jo could justify the wording by saying he's just arakawa's most trusted confidant and Has Helped as much as he was allowed#yk what im saying. i have a fanfiction to write hang on... or a comic .... idfk im too busy for either rn#my favorite flavor of arasawa is 'are they.....'. the ambiguity of it all#turns out i really enjoy ambiguity in pairings .. or at least the notion of ambiguity. its funny to me. and interesting....#i still love the old peopel .....i really do ...... it scratches a very specific bone in my body that i cant find with a lot of ships#its VERY specific and for that it is very important to me#im doing terrible in the pr department for it tho ... i must step up my game ....#perhaps a revisit of 7 will do me good <- too busy#ok my head hurts bye#im gonna think of the old people and ill come back if i have anything <- will not come back for at least 21 business days

me quietly, sneakily witnessing arie shed the he/him more and more and accept more 'fem' presenting qualities ♡
#at the time they don't lean particularly to one or the other but there is a lot of background on how they were raised#what was expected of them#they were allowed to be whoever they wanted to be but there's a lil nagging comment on orlais seeing queerness as a ''quirk of character''#that has me chewing on concrete#how they could be whatever they wanted! but also you still have to be a husband and have children and fulfill this very gendered role#so them allowing themselves to depart from that weight and that ''duty'' is soooooo#i love them so#also it's still fine to use any pronouns with them btw#i'm just hearteyes at how they evolve as a character#i love realizing i have free will and yes i can add female aesthetics to their board???#they can absolutely have 'fem' presenting attributes and actually prefer them a lot of the times#then getting more flesh on their bones and looking less angular and more fleshy and not necessarily fully curvy#because body will body and has its limits but it still is so gender affirming and has them giggling and kicking their feet#this is not to say angular features can't be feminine but ykno in the general societaly coded perspective ykno#and also their own perspective of themselves#not to mention it also goes hand in hand with them looking actually healthy and not like some wraith#* hc.

I have a rich inner world abt both iterations of Miguel and the relationship to fatherhood <- literally just hc
#90s miguel would explode on the spot if he spontaneously became a father shdjdjfjfjf he’s barely grappling through the emotional arc of#trying to become a better man AND he has the most hang ups ever regarding parents in general.#BUT. but. his biggest issue w being a dad would honestly be his own tendency towards self sabotage AND the fact Miguel is like. desperately#scared he’s bound to his own blood. he’d honestly probably fuck up being a dad not because he lacks the capability to be a kind man (all of#2099 demonstrates he DOES have the ability and desire to change) but because#he’d be scared he’d intrinsically fuck it up and in that fear. actually fuck it up. and then see those mistakes as further proof he just#isn’t capable of this.#not to mention like. given just how complicated his relationship with his family is I don’t think fatherhood would EVER have been something#90s miguel would’ve even THOUGHT of. he’s too busy been terrified he’ll turn into his OWN father(s)#atsv miguel on the other hand. difficult to draw too many concrete strands of analysis from because we don’t know how his past will be#conceptualised. BUT I personally like to think he’s very similar to the 90s counterpart except he sees a version of himself as a father.#and he sees that version of himself be HAPPY as a father. be a *good* father. someone who raised a sweet daughter. who lives with definitive#proof that you aren’t bound to enact pain upon your children. that you CAN be a better parent than the ones you had.#I think THAT would shake Miguel. and I like to think atsv Miguel didn’t know he wanted to be a dad - didn’t even THINK of it - until he saw#a reflection of himself that said this was possible. that you can go on and have a family of your own and you can choose to make it a good#and loving thing.#ANYWAYS. ✌️ she came. she posted a huge Miguel rant. she left ✌️#tunes talks spiderverse#tunes talks 2099

Desperately trying to write Ganondorf as someone capable of desire, like it was one of my goals going in these stories (I'm aroace and trying to challenge myself on this front creatively as I have a super hard time writing romance and attraction), and......... the more I write and the more I see him sliding further and further into the ace spectrum and I'm like....... this is just.... beyond my control isn't it
#thoughts#ganondorf#shitpost#honestly I do kind of picture him somewhere in the ace spectrum canonically? like it makes the most sense out of everything?#he's into Power and magic and cool horses and fucked up creatures and uhh yep that's about it#(also I HC him as probably... bi at the Very Least in some form)#(maybe in a way that is very very repressed or never concretely comes up but)#(like... first of all have you Seen him with men it's a disaster)#(also I feel like it's the only plausible outcome of being raised exclusively with women)#(while being told to both embody AND be wary of a vague idea of masculinity he barely has concrete access to)#(the mind loves to twist the mysterious/dangerous/innaccessible/Anxiety thing into something else is all I'll say)#(wanted to explore that in descant but never really got the opportunity so vOv in a random tumblr post it goes)

Planted some bulbs today, not sure if they'll come up, I have never had much luck with daffodils, but the others were muscari, alliums, and irises, all of which have proven incorrigible when I planted them previously (still pulling alliums out of pots they were never planted in five years later).
#Earth and Stone#We will see? Idk I might not even be in this house to see them flower but I really could do with something going right#And it's better than the corner flowerbed just getting more and more overgrown#I like weeds but these weren't flowering and the whole front yard is weeds so a few spring bulbs more or less hopefully won't hurt#I DID dig up at least three caterpillars in the process though! Which has never happened to me before it's always worms I surprise#But I moved them all to another plant- there were two normal sized green ones and one massive brown one (a future moth maybe?)#Hope they make it#Just goes to show that even though there are literally no flowers or flowering trees planted round here except that buddleia#Which is attached somehow to the back of the bins and ravaged the front yard earlier this spring#That the weeds must be good for something if the caterpillars are thriving#No worms though which makes me suspect that the soil will not be good for bulbs#It's a very dry corner but then again it is a purpose built concrete raised flowerbed from the 1960s#It's always going to be an oddity#Unfortunately I also forgot where I planted some of them so the planting scheme may be a bit uneven in places#Eh I can cover it with seeds later if need be#Anyway trying to do something each day of October and this counts#I usually garden at my parents' house (mostly in pots too) so these will be the first bulbs I've planted at my own house#I tried to pick varieties that would come back every year

Your parents named you that at birth ?? Really ??
I never met them, but yes, one could assume that is the case. Not that it matters now, obviously.
#saturn posts#rotomblr#asks#//i dont actually know where Saturn comes from in my au#//but all im saying is that both he and cyrus have blue hair and blue eyes.#//nothing concrete yet but. neuron activation.#//but in any case Saturn has no idea regardless#//all i know is that he was entirely raised inside team galactic

secondhand bookshops rule so hard esp my fav one in town. there are such specific sections for everything. in the scifi shelves theyve organized things by space sci-fi, sea sci-fi, dystopia etc. there's a paranormal romance section in the romance section. they have 3 shelves longer than i am tall dedicated to the star trek novelizations organized by series and 3 under that dedicated to dragonlance books. i went to look at their craft section and they had subsections for eras and styles of embroidery. i can look for motorsport books by series or manufacturer without coming across top gear books or car manuals, which have their own sections. i can find poetry by nz poets in their own bookcase and books by māori authors all over the shop because they've been marked by a specific tag on the binding.
#when i went there last year i found a bunch of little knitting books dedicated to weird and fun tea cosies for $15#and my mother wanted to make some but was bored of the stuff she found online so i was like damn! mine now!#didnt buy anything today cos saving money and was just wasting time till next bus but they have a GIANT $90 encyclopedia of all of#shakespeares histories tragedies and comedies (all his plays!!!)#i remember 2 years back someone donated their grandfathers old racing book collection#and it was massive. 200 books. multiple in series like ''ferraris of 1958. ferraris of 1959''#and so on up until the year he died#but the BEST thing was the bookstore owner showed me#a local published book on the new zealand grand prix#which is a race held here every year that nz drivers compete in#and taped on the inside of the cover was a form#and it was the mans entry form that he submitted to race and the paper showing his result in that years race#(it was in the 70s)#like thats AMAZING#he had a good few on the rally scene in wellington which i wanted to get but got snapped up :(#rally was HUGE back when#the reason our waterfront is so huge (biiig pavement that stretches from the water and rocks to the park/sitting areas#which are all elevated) is because rallies were held on the waterfront!?#so all the spectator stuff had to be raised up so no one would be hit if the car spun out#of course that meant cars would either go off the edge of the waterfront and into the rocks/harbour or slam into concrete walls#because it was the 60s and safety wasnt. a thing they considered.
