been reading rhaenicent fic lately tbh and it’s AMAZING, i’m eating well, but it also made me realize just how much smaller the yellowjackets (specifically JackieShauna) fanbase is bc i look at yellowjacket fics that have legit changed my brain chemistry and they have like. 200 kudos. sometimes less.
anyway all these words to say, if you’re a fic writer, esp a fic writer for smaller fandoms or ships, lower numbers of kudos are not an indicator of the quality of your work, believe me. your work is incredible and most of all it is appreciated and loved. there’s someone out there who sees art or reads another story or watches a movie and your work comes to their mind. maybe months or years later they’ll even come back again because they loved it so much and it stuck with them.
anyway, fic authors i love you 📖💖
and fic readers, leave comments. even if you feel like your words won’t do justice to how much you enjoyed the work. say something anyways. it goes such a long way, believe me
adding one more note to say this sentiment also applies to fan artists and gif makers and video editors etc. you are the reason the source material gets to expand & deepen and live on beyond what we see on our screens 🎨 📺

Limbus slugcats I did between uni work and owed art! Partially inspired by ari-zonia's Limbus slugcats I saw a while ago, but I also wanted to do my own take on em! Also includes iterator Dante for funsies.
I had clearer ideas for some of them than others, struggled to think of something for Hong Lu & Meursault but instantly knew what I wanted to do for Don Quixote and Sinclair. It was fun to figure out though!
All of the info/etc assumes:
All hard-mode spawns
Ascension is the goal of the campaign
Definitely not balanced, I just like numbers

DuckTales (2017) is a show that did a good job at making some changes from the source material to match the current socioeconomic climate. For example, in the 1987 run, Fenton was able to take home two paychecks from McDuck Enterprises, as Gizmoduck was listed on the payroll as a separate employee. However, in the modern adaptation, Fenton is an unpaid intern, and, seeing as most of the major characters know that he's Gizmoduck, it's likely he doesn't receive a salary for that, either.

Aita for laughing at my cat?
A few days ago my cat was cleaning herself but she was making a very derby face and I felt like I had to take a picture because she looked really weird. I forgot all about it until I found the pic again in my camera roll and I couldn't stop laughing since.
So Aita?
Here's the pic for reference
What are these acronyms?
