my gf was looking through wesker's wiki page (as you do) and sent me this
and i lost my shit bc it just seems like they're looking at him like girls look at a weird bug
#this just in#im not putting this on the art blog it's not worth it lmao#but oh my god . imagine.#imagine being extrajudicially executed by Evil Johnson & Johnson and this is the last thing you see#two of your shithead genius students standing all fruity over ur dying body#i accidentally twinkified birkin but im not used to working on a rlly small scale like this so forgive me#plus he's in his 20s so i couldnt give him wrankles. im so sorry bill ive made you a twink#also wesker what's with the fit#do not need to dress up for a murder#BTW IMPORTANT IS THE PHRASING OF “PARTICIPATING IN THE ASSASSINATION”#they literally did NOTHING to help im not even sure why they were there#they sure as hell didn't kill the dude#resident evil#william birkin#albert wesker#james marcus

i vote that next year instead of reading Dracula we do a Jeeves & Wooster Book Club. those two never got the rabid tumblr shipping fandom they deserved (disqualified for the sheer technicality of being published a century too soon). we must correct this injustice
#jeeves and wooster#i want to watch tumblr go rabid i want to watch ao3 overflow with jeeves/wooster fanfiction#yes obviously the fandom EXISTS but it's a cozy little neighborhood#a handful of talented artists and writers doing their best to keep their charming little village going#but i'm tired of cozy i want this fandom TRENDING#I WANT TO SEE THIS ON MY DASHBOARD PEOPLE#i swear to you if they made a shiny new tv series tumblr would absolutely obsess over these characters. good omens levels of obsession#it's just such a great dynamic! the good-natured overly-trusting bumbling idiot in constant need of rescuing!#the stoic all-knowing genius who quietly masterminds mayhem in order to protect this one moron he's devoted himself to for some reason#jeeves as a morosexual is just such a beautiful interpretation of the original text#wooster as a happy-go-lucky himbo who stumbles his way into a relationship with a protective caring and supremely competent mastermind#the angst and social complexities of a same-sex cross-class relationship in turn-of-the century london!#oh AND half the stories are about jeeves helping wooster get out of engagements/desperately avoid marriage#two men who live together constantly scheming to maintain their bachelorhood. this is quite literally the main plot point#the gay subtext is there! the gay subtext is there and very ripe for picking!!!#this thing is LOCKED AND LOADED we can pounce literally any time

Very curious about your Spellbound AU but particularly mimic Jazz.
We know he automatically mimics the voices of people’s loved ones, but does he have any other mimicry abilities like changing his appearance or throwing his voice?
He can change his appearance too yes>:D
The catch is - he can’t do that to the point where he could be considered a full copy. He can change yes, but there will always be this uncanny feeling that something isn’t quite right. He can change himself enough for you to confuse him with other bot in the dark. You know how some animals mimic other animals? Like the caterpillar that looks like a snake but only at the first glance? And the longer you look the more obvious the difference gets? Like that.
He would also sound just like someone you love but he won’t be able to magically know the right words or intonations. So you would hear your friend or lover but there will be something wrong with the way they talk. This is why most of the mimics use cry for help to lure their prey. You don’t have time to analyse everything when you’re scared of losing your loved one.
Also lemme just. Lemme just put this here for a second. This sketch isn’t properly colored but yk. So you can see the aesthetic 🙃

#…..HOW TF DO I CALL THIS#I need a name grrhhhhh#for now#I need to come back and retag it later#jazz#tf Jazz#I’m tempted to just call it mimic Jazz au (genius I know) but there will also be Prowl with his own thing. it’s not just about Jazz hmm#tf mimics au

Thinking about the fact that Mabel and Dipper didn't know they had two great uncles.
Yeah they are 12 and at 12 I had a shotty understanding of my family tree- But really? Nobody brought up their great uncle? Stanley? Especially since they'll be staying with his twin brother, Stanford?
Shermie never went to Stan's fake funeral, which to me means the twos relationship was strained on some level. If Shermie is older that means his view of Stan was poisoned in some way, that even as kids they weren't close. If the Shermie is younger then he never even got to meet Stan and all he knew about him was how he failed his family. Hell, people probably barely mentioned Stanley TO Shermie.
The fact that Stan had become a black stain upon the Pines family name makes me so vividly upset. Stanley faked his death and the family just- seemingly decided to strike him from the record. To pretend he didn't existed to spare themselves the sadness and shame.
Stanford and Shermie Pines. The only children worth mentioning of Filbrick and Caryn Pines.
It was never Stanford that was lost to the world. It was Stanley, ever since he had to leave New Jersy- it was always him that had to be struck from the record. Change his name, change his state, change his affiliations, destroy the remains of ghost that was Stanley Pines. Kill him so the family doesn't bring him up, doesn't ask questions, stops asking "Stanford" about his twin.
I just keep thinking about the fact that since the day he made one single mistake all the way up until Ford walks out of that machine- Stanley Pines was killed and did not exist. And Stan himself had no one to blame, he had to play the part in his own demise- He is the only one who ever knew Stanley was alive and has been for decades.
He lives in the multitudes of every personality he's ever taken, all in the hope that he himself can stop being Stanley Pines.
#gravity falls#grunkle stan#stanley pines#STANLEYYYYYY#STANLEY THEY COULD NEVER MAKE ME HATE YOU STANLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#sharky rants#Just. Imagine the fucking shame you have to live with#the shame that you can never be yourself. That anything you were is unwanted and forgotten#The shame of just BEING- Of taking space of- of /breathing-/#Imagine the world; your friend; your family; your colleagues being so ashamed of having known you#that you feel more comfortable with a persona to present.#You feel more comfortable stealing the identity of someone you care for deeply if only to help#If only to feel capable for once. To feel like you belong- Like youre doing something good for once#Imagine the shame that brings you to be comfortable not being yourself for 40 years.#ALL CASE YOU BROKE ONE FUCKING PROJECT??????? COME ON#I mean- the deeprooted shame was started from earlier. He was 'the stupid twin“; 'the troublemaker”; “the cheat and thief”#This was a long time coming#But those werent MISTAKES- The one time he genuinely made a Mistake he lost everything#Like he really mattered so little to the people around him#and he cant really blame them.#My cousin is a genius. Hes smart and academically achieved since I was a baby.#The only thing I had that he didnt was my ability to draw. to be creative. The guy for the longest time had a better social life then me too#I used to get brought to tears seeing his accomplishments- seeing people praise him. The shame lived in me any time I had to see him#The shame that I was the black sheep of the family next to the golden standard for a son- for a student- for a friend.#when I was none of those things#And Im lucky he was my cousin- cause if he was my brother that would have haunted me EVERY DAY rather then once or twice a year#Im better with it now; Im more content with who I am- But trauma dump aside-#I very very very much understand Stans shame in being the stupid one. The unachieved one in a family full of achieved people#the shame thats angry at him for being better. at the family for treating him special. and most of all at yourself that you cant be better#its a visceral feeling that I sadly understand

hc that steve actually likes metal and listens to it regularly, just always pretty quietly. so when eddie, who never has his stereo turned down to anything below 40 and even that's too quiet sometimes, gets in steve's car one day to hear metallica playing through the speakers with the volume only set to like 7, he's immediately torn between being ecstatic that steve is listening to one of his favorite bands and outrage that he's not giving it the proper listening experience it deserves
#eddie goes off on one of his little tangents and some (lighthearted) bickering ensues#steve: it's not my fault loud music gives me headaches :(#eddie: i don't care. tell your headaches to stop disrespecting musical genius.#inspired by my friend constantly laughing at me for always having metal music on in my car but never turning the volume up above 10 lmao#i have sensory issues. steve has head trauma. we make do#steddie#steve harrington#eddie munson#steddie headcanon#stranger things#stranger things headcanon#headcanon#mine

i think the most frustrating part about tbosas is the fact that you want to root for coryo. you want him to be a better man for lucy gray. you want him and sejanus to become closer, to become the best friends sejanus believes them to be. you want him to run away and find a way to relearn all the oppressive and tyrannical ideals the capitol instilled in him.
but that’s not what happens.
coriolanus isn’t necessarily a good person. he’s not a bad person either, not yet, but he’s no where near good. and rather than try to be good, he gives up, he lets himself “go bad”, he rats out sejanus, he lets his anger get the best of him and loses lucy gray.
the idea that coryo could be a good person but chooses not to be is exactly the reason this book and this character are brilliant.
#idk if this comes across the way i wanted it to#i am in no way excusing his actions at all please do not think i am#he has done unimaginable things and damage and has caused so much horror#but the idea isn’t that he’s evil because there’s nothing else to be#he CHOOSES it#that’s what makes him even worse#the ballad of songbirds and snakes#tbosas#coriolanus snow#suzzane collins#lucy gray baird#sejanus plinth#i’m pretty sure people have made this connection but#i just wanted to add my two cents#suzanne collins is a genius

I think a lot about Leo’s tendency to push his way into the spotlight despite clearly being a natural in the shadows. Hell, you could argue that his worst moments are when he’s forcing himself onstage, and his best are when he does things no one notices until it’s already been done.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rottmnt headcanons#rise leo#His aptitude with subterfuge sleight of hand stealth and speed really push how being a ninja really comes naturally to him.#it’s arguable that his desperation for the spotlight and validation is an act of subterfuge against himself#note that when he’s offered a job as a mascot he’s fine being unknown#when he and splinter win the battle nexus Leo immediately says ‘they love YOU pops’#idk I think so much about how good a ninja Leo is#and how much his persona is more an actor#Leo as a tot is shown a natural skill at katana too so hear me out-#every Leo is a natural ninja but every Leo’s route in life is directly tied to their splinter so#since rise splinter is an actor Leo too aims for it#and he brings it into his whole life - masking always because a Leo makes what they do who they are#I think that Leo naturally falls more in line with that of a typical ninja#his eccentric performer self is his subterfuge skill just set to an 11 at all times#not that that’s NOT him - like I said it’s still undoubtedly a part of Leo#but? idk I think about little moments like Leo being the only one to choose stealth in bug busters#or Leo being the only one to almost get Gus’s dog tags in The Ninja Art of Hide and Seek (he was so close but luck was against him alas)#like- he’s clearly in his element there and he falls into those skills so easily#it’s like how everyone has skills in so many things but some exceed more in some than others do#like Raph? Raph’s the biggest Hero of the bunch of them let’s be perfectly real here. Raph is THE Hero#All the boys are smart in their own rights but Donnie is THE Genius.#and they all have mystic powers but Mikey is THE Mystic Warrior with immense untapped potential#likewise Leo I feel is THE Ninja#but yeah I love how much Leo goes for the spotlight anyway for better or for worse#he IS a performer again make no mistake! but again the way he does it still lines up with his natural ninja aptitude and I love it#Leo loving magic tricks and magicians so much works doubly well here because like#you’d think he’s focused solely on the performance flair - no it’s ALSO and ESPECIALLY the DECEPTION

absolutely begging dimension 20 to do a battle-heavy courtroom drama inspired season called Rules Lawyers with battle puzzles that hinge on technicalities and rules interpretation
#dropout#dimension 20#look i know d20 is more of a “introduce newbies to dnd” kind of show#and there is nothing wrong with that!!#BUT i am absolutely convince this would rule#anyways here’s my ideal cast:#aabria iyengar#as the dm#look. from the bottom of my heart i believe that between burrows end and laerryn coramar-seelie#that aabria has the level of rules knowledge and sheer evil genius to be the perfect dm for a season this psychologically intense#like my girl literally changed the wizard class forever#brennan lee mulligan#i do think brennan should be a player since “rule of cool”/“nat 20 = instant success” means less rules-lawyering and we want that shit#siobhan thompson#(gotta rep the whole law firm)#becca scott#emily axford#brian murphy#zac oyama#anyway i know that you may be asking “why zac” and like i know a lot of his Thing is being Quiet and Silly#but that man knows how to Play The Game#this is the kind of concept i would love to run at my own table#but my players don’t read the rules. so#live vicariously through others

I LOVE how Mike’s face is the second biggest on this poster. Literally name one thing he did this season besides get into arguments with every person he loves and get bonked on the head a couple times (ilyyyy my useless little guy)

#he just sat in his basement and cried#i LOVE him#he’s me core#doing none of the work but somehow getting by#Give my girl Robin a higher place though that absolute genius. She’s actually the only reason I watch s3.#(Also Hopper and Joyce were quite literally the main characters so idk wtf they’re hiding for)#mike wheeler#stranger things#byler

haikavethamtober day 2: soup "alhaitham. put that book down. the soup's getting cold." "argh, you know what? i'll make sure you finish this myself. open your mouth."
#alhaitham#kaveh#genshin impact#haikaveh#hkvhthmtober24#the only time soup isn't alhaitham's least favorite food#paying close attention he never explicitly said he dislikes soup. he just says it's hard to eat soup-based food while reading#so more troublesome than hating the food for the taste per se ig?#so maybe he doesn't have anything against soup if his senior aka roommate aka wife is the one cooking AND feeding him some#i'm a genius i know (jk)#also you can't see it but i'm punching the air so hard rn bc what do i gotta do to be alhaitham#another thing i drew this fully aware that is chinese/liyue soup spoon#maybe kaveh got it in liyue. maybe it was a gift#but it is a very optimally functional spoon for soup and porridge yes#png

can we talk about the choice to make luther the one with the music. here is a portrait of seven five siblings. none of them are in each others lives anymore. theyre dragged back together by their fathers funeral and find themselves nearly strangers, and none of them are particularly interested in changing that. but luther. luther wants them to be a team. he resents them for leaving and he resents them for not wanting to stay and solve this mystery. he is The Leader and as The Leader its his job to bring the gang back together and absolutely nobody is the least bit interested in heeding him.
but then. the first time that theres an indication that these people do have potential to be a family again. and its because luther plays a song.
its so beautiful. they could have given the music collection to any of them!! wouldn't it feel so in character for it to have been allison or klaus? or, for that matter, viktor? but they gave it to luther. the hardass who has been annoyed with everyone this whole time, the guy who is taking this all too seriously, THATS the one they give the 80s pop music to.
because he wants them to work together. and the show tells us yes, he he has that power, to help heal his family. but only by being a person with a music collection who does goofy dances and loves model planes. and not by being a superhero
#tua#the umbrella academy#been a minute since i got so overwhelmed by a detail on the show i just had to post about it#luther hargreeves#the way that straightlaced good boy number one DEFINITELY played pop music too loud in his room as an itty bitty teen#and all his siblings definitely danced to it in between superheroing and pointedly being left out of superheroing#is it not the most precious thing you ever heard#whoever did that was a genius bc thinking it over i really do think allison or klaus or viktor were more obvious choices#but its so IMPORTANT that it was luther#what this post is actually about is that we as a society dont do enough with the fact that luther is the one with the record collection

in the final episode of the show, Vanessa tells Doofenshmirtz "you're basically a nice guy who's pretending to be evil" and it changes his entire view on his life. she points out it's not actually making him happier to be "evil". that end to his character is something I think about almost every week. Doof is such an unexpectedly-popular part of this zany cartoon and they chose to point out the most obvious thing about his character only in the last episode, and it makes you look at every rewatch differently with him. it's so great. it's great that Doofenshmirtz stops being evil at the end of Phineas and Ferb. growth is essential to characters. Candace had to grow, and Doof had to grow, and they were the true main characters of the show. the only ones who needed to learn, and they learned. and now in this new season they're choosing to retcon that for the sake of the formula? weak. weak. I hate that
#make! it! count!#CHOOSE to have doof do something different with his talents#don't make him take steps backward so Perry can still go out and thwart him.#he's supposed to teach Vanessa's class over the fall. he's supposed to join OWCA on Perry's team. he's supposed to go bowling on Thursdays!#he could do so many other things than make evil inators. he's a weirdo genius and he's hilarious. don't OVERUSE him (like you started doing#but don't throw him back into the same old thing. he learned! he can be even MORE endearing by having grown and been redeemed#he loves his daughter. he loves his ex-nemesis. he can be a huge force for good AND chaos - the same way Phineas and Ferb are!#you could do a lot with him and it could be JUST as entertaining to watch his attempts to turn over a new leaf. don't make him “evil” again#what is wrong with you? backwards bad. forwards good#storytelling 101 gentlemen#same goes for candace. what a HUGE win it was to see her fight to bring her brothers back to existence in the finale!#what a HUGE win it was to see her appreciate them and see them for who they ARE in Candace Against the Universe#Candace has learned too. Candace should be DIFFERENT now#she should be learning to seize the day and STOP being anxious and trying to control everything#Jeremy teaches her that throughout the show! Stacy too! AND her brothers love her and try to point out her strengths constantly#she should be growing and changing and doing something NEW in the new summer#if Act Your Age Candace/Doof and Quantum Boogaloo Candace/Doof are to be believed they should not be busting/evil in S5#they. should. change.#the only thing that needn't change is Phineas and Ferb and their friends. they're the BASIS. they're the SETTING. they don't need to change#they change everyone AROUND them that's the POINT#RRRRRGGGGHHHH the more I think about Season 5 the more worried I become#season 5#pnf s5#pnf#phineas and ferb#phineas#ferb#ferb fletcher#candace#candace flynn

The word “love” is a hard word for me to say and admitting that I have a crush on someone including a celebrity is very hard for me to admit. “Love” is NOT my favorite word. It’s a very uncomfortable word for me to use/say. I don’t usually admit that I have a crush when I do. I don’t like to admit when I have a crush on someone. I really don’t like having crushes 😭. I’m not used to talking about my feelings on someone/anything.
The truth is that I have a huge crush on Val Kilmer and I obviously love him. I love Val Kilmer. I love him. I really do love him. I’ve had celebrity crushes before but it’s different with Val Kilmer. I never thought I could feel this way about anyone. It was very hard for me to admit that I love and have a crush on Val Kilmer but I finally admitted on tumblr and to myself. I really surprised myself.
I’m so sorry to everyone who follows my blog/follows my blog for reasons not regarding to Val Kilmer and sees/reads my posts and my “naughty” tags about Val Kilmer.
This is the only place that I can actually talk and express my opinion about Val Kilmer.
#val kilmer#top gun maverick#real genius#top gun iceman#tom iceman kazansky#chris knight#my celebrity crush#he’s so handsome#he’s so sexy#he’s so hot#he’s so cute#the things i would let him do to me#he has my heart#val <3#I want ride him#i really want to have sex with him#everything about him is sexy#i can’t stop talking about this man#i can’t stop thinking about this man#I dream about having sex with him all the time#I wish I could meet him#i want to be his girlfriend
