i love you royal trio (minus akechi)
#i was listening to the world we knew by frank sinatra while drawing this to inflict maximum emotional damage 😔#royal actually shot me fifty times in the chest and slaughtered my entire family#i’m actually inconsolable over the ending what the fuck do you mean akechi chooses to die of his own volition rather than be manipulated#god it’s just. his character actually makes me violent and insane. they’re going to drag me kicking and screaming to the psych ward#he never had an ounce of control over his life. not even once. he was CONSTANTLY being yanked around like a marionette#until he was disposed of as another pawn in shido’s plan#and then out of some cruel irony he was resurrected even though he did not want to be alive#for once in death he would have found peace—only for that to be taken from him too.#and bc he thinks he’s worthless and his life is so easily gambled away he doesn’t view it as a major dealbreaker when maruki brings it up#“do you really think something as trivial as my life should stand in the way of your decision?” yes you fucking asshole#what do you mean he’s literally fated to die in every timeline? definition of doomed by the narrative#there’s not a single version of his story that doesn’t end with him being slaughtered#GODDDDD he makes me violently ill i hate goro akechi so much he’s so fucking selfish HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THAT THIS DEAL IS TEARING ME APART#i was so tempted to get the bad ending just so that he was alive ☹️#he looked so happy. he was surrounded by people who loved and treasured him.no shido. control over his life. the ability to choose his futu#TEARS IN MY EYES MARUKI WAS THE ONLY VILLAIN WHO WAS LOWKEY MAKING SENSE 😭😭😭😭😭#my toxic trait is that i think maruki was right all along 😔#ALSO SUMIRE AAUUGGHHHH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭#the survivors guilt literally eating her alive until the point where she gaslighted herself into thinking she was her sister. insane.#royal was so good bro i’m so glad i endured 200 hours of hell just to play it#terrible terrible ending with everyone going their separate ways and ren ending up in juvie for months#akechi actually being dead in the good ending is so fucked up 😭😭 i thought there was some way maruki could bring him back regardless#not ren hallucinating him in the last cutscene too 😭😭😭😭 “i still see your shadows in my room” ahh ending#persona 5 royal#persona 5#ren amamiya#akira kurusu#sumire yoshizawa#goro akechi#lotus draws

holiday gift season approaches.
do you know a FANTASY GAME ENJOYER? or someone with a YEARNING for d&d but no opportunity/ time to schedule it?
may i suggest.... my books
Where can I obtain these: Consider US & UK indie bookstores!! But, many places, like Forbidden planet online for less than a tenner. or Target.
Into the Dungeon: FUN. SILLY. Dungeon crawl! Get loot! Get eaten!
Into the Tower: Juicy fantasy novella vibe. Multiple unique endings. Wizard tower! Weird magic! Romance and horror options if you want!
BOTH: Standalone, quick reads, <1 hour to play once, no experience needed
Replayable. Achievements. Easy and hard modes
Meet creatures, kiss monsters
guest art I'm OBSESSED WITH. LOOK AT IT
Grainy VINTAGE (2018) photos of Felix Miall & Letty Wilson's inks
^ You might recognise these as the artists for many-award-winning ttrpgs including Heart: the city beneath and Wanderhome...
into the tower pics by Shazleen Khan, Faye Stacey & Sajan rai, THERE ARE LITERALLY SO MANY MORE BUT MOST ARE SPOILERS. CAN'T BELIEVE I GOT TO WORK WITH ALL THESE COOL ARTISTS TBH
Age rating FAQ: can I give Into the Dungeon to (or play with) nerdy children? yes. encouraged.
Number of players: solo, unless you read them aloud and get people to vote on their choices (I LOVE DOING THIS WITH CYOA BOOKS)
You can see more info, links to buy, character previews and a lil chart comparing the books here.
#reaching the end of the year like 'oh god forgot to remind people my books exist'#it's SO fun to hear from readers about these and i would LOVE to keep making them. and tragically that requires Promotion#ttrpg#solo rpg#gamebook#choose your own adventure#into the tower

If you're going to be a Christian you need to acknowledge its history of violence and colonization so you do not continue the violence!!!!
#this post is brought to you by those anime characters the catholic church just released that use the missionary (colonizer) rosary#i'm anti proselytizing to the end!! let people choose their own religion and build their own relationship with God even if it's in a way#i don't agree with (with the exception for cults and abuse)#progressive christian#queer christian#progressive christianity#trans christian#lgbt christian

can't express accurately how happy it makes me that c.s. lewis did not leave room for many interpretations in narnia. it's christian and you can't get around it. susan chose to care more about worldly things than what matters and he said what he said. the lion is Jesus. evil is evil and good is good and people have to choose. and that makes some readers angry because it's nearly impossible to ignore and they want to ignore it. they want it to be something else and they can't make it something else without making it not narnia. love that. that is doing it right
#that's. how. it. should. be#if there's room for interpretation in your writing as a christian you are doing it wrong#if people read your work and get to pick and choose what it means and you left it OPEN to interpretation-#-and they can divorce your fantasy world from the truth? you are doing it wrong#looking at you john ronald reuel#readers you're upset because susan cares more about “nylons and lipstick” than Aslan? 1. that's not really what lewis said#2. you should be upset because she made the wrong decision#and if you're upset because you can't get around the christianity in narnia let me share something with you - that's the point#it's a christian series#it's telling you christian things. this is not lord of the rings. this is not Cool Fantasy World open to interpretation#you can't worship the fantasy world and ignore the christian truths#you can't separate the two. that's what it should be#that's what all christian writing should be#if you write something amazing and centuries later people host parades for your fictional world and there's no God in it? no truth?#wrong. you did it wrong. they should not be able to separate the two - unless the point of your writing was to write a cool story#congratulations you wrote a cool story. but did it point people to the truth? unavoidably? no? then what a waste of freaking time#what a waste of a beautiful God-given talent#okay I got off on a tangent#my point is: be upset because Narnia is Christian and you can't get around that with ease#I am so. glad. you can't get around that with ease#this is why Lewis is my favorite author in the root of me#he did it right. this is what we as christian authors should aspire to#not LOTR. Narnia. NARNIA.#christianity#narnia#the chronicles of narnia#thoughts in the tags#doverstar's thoughts#writing#authors

#starry text#PEOPLE DIED#clingy duo#dsmp#dream smp#GOD THEIR FRIENDSHIP. MAKES ME INSANE#their story....was just choosing each other over and over#as tragic as the ending was.....the ending was ctommy choosing ctubbo.#he sacraficed himself so ctubbo could have a future#and ctubbo chose to try to die by ctommy's side cuz he couldn't lose him. not for the third time#FUCKKKKK

”—ah. seems like mother goose has been playing around in your egg salad. if you won’t dance to that tune, I got others.”
honestly, the would you kindly scene is whatever to me*, code yellow is the more interesting violation/betrayal of the body because of how beautifully it escalates the Fontaine reveal/betrayal and shows how ugly some of those ‘locks and keys’ that Tenenbaum mentions are. not only have you been a tool in another man’s hand this entire time, it goes deeper. your body is not your own.
*there used to be a meandering thought here about the would you kindly scene, but it was really just talking around the fact that I spent way too many years seeing people discuss it in the most insufferable and reductive ways possible when it’s a combination of three or four other things that make that moment compelling lmao
collage credits: heart one/heart two
⭐ places I’m at! bsky / pixiv / pillowfort /cohost / cara.app / tip jar!
#bioshock#honestly if Fontaine was upfront about wanting Ryan dead I’d have done it after ten minutes of walking around Rapture#I have (squints) somehow two ideas about suchong I want to get out. one more abt atlas and manipulation#there’s a specific kind of family adjacent horror occurring in the text and it’s WILD that suchong is the one we hear Jack refer to#in familial terms while two other men force themselves onto you by appropriating the father role over your body :)#to be clear tho I don’t actually think Fontaine had any familial sentiments towards Jack he’s just occupying Ryan’s space now#WHEEZING can you tell that I think every ‘wow a man chooses/a slave obeys is so deep!’ think piece is stupid as hell#thankfully it’s not as prevalent as it was a decade ago but my god people thought it was the height of philosophy for too long#ANYWAY ALL OF THIS TO SAY. there’s a certain kind of trans anxiety/horror in having your body betray you. or generally body#anxiety. but I read a lot about it in a medieval gender context so it’s trans to me. amongst other things.

saw a take so fucking rancid on twitter i almost deleted the entire app from my phone jesus fucking christ
first of all ao3 is an archive site. this is like going to the library and saying "oh i dont like this" on every piece of media you find that you dislike and thinking they should be stamped with some sort of a marker just cause you didnt like it
you can always click back and leave. fic writers owe you nothing to explain themselves and their creations. if they have mistagged or miscategorized fics, then i understand, however there are report tools for that instead of yelling at the artist tbh
im not saying free works arent necessarily above criticism. but this is just. fucking wild. its common courtesy to just enjoy stuff (or fucking leave if you dont, the back button is free) and if the artist specifically asks for critiques, then give one - constructive that is, shitting all over someones work is not proper criticism, mind you
i just find it fucking wild people are treating art and archive sites as social media these days like this and everything needs to be policed and ~catered to the algorithm~ like. no. ao3 doesnt have an algorithm. you should be able to fucking tell what you like and what you dont like and steer away from that kind of content and let people fucking be with their art. they dont owe you anything (except trigger warnings i'd argue, but i know some people disagree with that as well for some reason), and imagine how much more energy you'd have if you only engaged with things you liked and spent time looking at instead of going to places where you dont enjoy yourself. let alone spending time telling other people you dont enjoy what they enjoy. what a fucking life
#like what the fuck#where is the common courtesy of fandoms these days im just fucking asking. its ridiculous#the back button is free. shutting your fucking mouth is free. constructive criticism when people ask for it is nice but only then#these are fucking basic level fandom engagement things#am i old or are people just this fucking awful now that these guidelines dont exist anymore#im just. ough#sorry i had to get this out. idk as someone who has never left unsolicited advice for anyone and never gotten it back it just#it fucking grinds me that people are like this now. like fucking wow#ive been here for almost two decades soon and i still know how to behave. yall better fucking learn#im gonna go back to video game sorry i really needed to yell for a hot fucking second#if you choose to reblog this dont fucking clown on it okay. god#night is an absolute mess on main

An annoying part about any fandom discourse is the push to categorize characters, populations, and factions as representations of actual groups IRL. The most annoying one (to me) is insistence that a particular group is Indigenous Peoples and the other is the White Settlers.
Like a lot of people in the U.S., I'm mixed race. Many who are mixed race don't identify as such; they pick one or another. Why? Because mixed race identities are systematically ignored or erased on multiple levels of government and political influence: census records, diversity reports, financial aid qualifications, membership in political groups, etc. Choosing one identity alone is rewarded with greater voice and resources in different spheres. Acknowledging that this split isn't real is offensive to groups in power, both for the dominant hegemony of Whites and the coalitions of minority groups. Each group benefits from enforcing this exclusionary practice because it allows specific people to justify their leadership based solely on their heritage: a new aristocracy.
All this fake dichotomy nonsense in fandom is a replication of that mentality. Like, some media like The Terror really, truly are commentary on colonialism. There's no need to hide the ball about it. If your favorite media has nothing to do with conquest, exploitation of land and resources, or the subjugation of populations for the benefit of foreign powers, then it's not about colonialism. There's other themes to explore.
#critical role#you have no idea how many times I've been told I'm not Mexican enough to be Mexican#not chicana enough#not latina enough#guess what it's never been white people who say that#at least white supremacists just say I'm not White and I don't mind because they're right I don't get to claim a privilege I never had#maybe stop furthering this idea that mixed race people don't exist#that'd be great#that'd be a lovely world to live in#where I don't have to choose White or Other to count as a person or to speak to my experience#anyway yeah this is about critical role because mortals were created by gods and Primordials so they aren't native#the closest possible analogy for mortals is they're mixed race#and don't belong anywhere as 'Indigenous' because that's not how this works#it is completely incompatible with this worldbuilding#also killing 4 primordials is not genocide they're elemental entities on the scale of gods and that word simply doesn't work in that contex#maybe come at the story with the lens of religion and philosophy in which it was presented#instead of making up racial themes that aren't in the source material

EVERYONE VOTE SONIC FOR ME ON THIS MONTHS SONIC CHANNEL ART POLL PLEASEEEE FOR THE LOVE OF GODDDD
#ROUGE AND INFINITE ALREADY APPEARED IN SONIC CHANNEL ART THIS YEAR#AND SONIC IS MY FAVORITE LITTLE GUY AND I WANNA SEE HIM IN A CUTE OUTFIT#PLUS KNUCKLES IS THE ALREADY CHOSEN CHARACTER AND I WANNA SEE THEM TOGETHER#PLEASE#hes winning right now at the time im typing this. thank god#hes only 5 percent ahead of rouge but considering its a 3 way poll this time. the votes are divided more#so a 5 percent difference isnt as scary. since a vote against sonic isnt automatically a vote for rouge#and infinite is way further behind#thankfully for most of the polls involving characters who have already appeared in sonic channel art this year#people have been good about choosing the one that hasnt gotten to be in any art yet. like omega beat shadow which was kinda shocking#so sonic definitely has a chance

do you have youtube channel?
technically yes, but I just use it to host unlisted videos for embedding, so there's nothing, like, public on it. :') sorry! I basically don't post anywhere except here and occasionally on pixiv (in case it's not obvious, I suck at social media).
#god help me if i ever have to rely on it as a career because i will immediately die#i like being in one place where people can follow or block as they choose and not have to keep blocking me everywhere#fediverse seems like it would be ideal for that but i haven't seen any that have the thing that i really like about tumblr#which is that tags can work both as a cloud (like if i tag something as 'art' it shows up in the tag feed for 'art)#and also isolated (if you come to my blog and click the 'art' tag you can see only my posts tagged 'art')#(if there's a term for that i do not know it)#i might just be missing if there are any like that though#the people who i tend to look to for this kinda thing are mostly interested in straight-up twitter clones#which is...let's say less than ideal for posting art or organizing anything#so at this point if tumblr goes down i'll probably just take it as a sign to quit social media entirely ( ᐛ )#(my apologies i did not mean for this to turn into a tag novella)

the catholic rejection of it all
#one piece#op#trafalgar law#monkey d. luffy#gear 5 luffy#song is big god by florence and the machine#religious symbology? in my shounen anime protagonist? it's more likely than you think#im 24 years old it's the end of 2023 it's MY turn to finally make a cringe amv for christmas#to be clear. i dont think law sees luffy as his god. but i definitely think he's helped law regain some faith#i.e. catholicism (yeah hardy-hah one piece character is an ex-catholic its all very silly but let's take it unironically for a second)#it would've drilled into law as a child to believe in one true cause (that cause being god). and that will supposedly carry him through lif#give hope purpose etc. but a lot of former catholics choose instead to find that in something else. in law’s cause:#the freedom and hope corasan gave him#the freedom that luffy brings. the will of D. the goodness in the people around him#it's a transfer of faith that feels real and tangible#it's a neat concept and I don't see it talked about much#CJ's op watch-through#corasan#donquixote rosinante#sun god nika#CJ's edits#op analysis#amv

also, everyone is talking about how Simon has this huge capacity for empathy this this and that about how empathy is so integral to his character as if this guy didn't just spend the first two episodes of this show torturing a goose to death
#simon petrikov#fionna and cake#adventure time#choose goose#justice for choose goose#rhymes aren't crimes#let him go#he's not just a battery to ME#he's a jaunty little fellow with a jaunty little outfit and you ELECTROCUTED him#nearly TO DEATH#People shocked that winter king was doing some fucked shit when this guy was actively torturing waterfowl who did nothing wrong#stop him#choose goose should take him to criminal court#simon petrikov literally started out this series with a hostage he has kept for god knows how long#whatever he does past this point is anyone's guess. Who fucking knows.#I'm cancelling him
