Six Sentence Sunday

Mel considered the completed sheets with a critical eye. “Just how you know all this.”

Once again Tech found himself skating the edges of direct lies. “Not all alchemists in the Republic or Empire’s employ are confined to the Academy.”

“And, what, you were bored with just taking a ride?”

“Wouldn’t you be?” He glanced up at her in the wake of that question, found her studying him intently. He couldn’t meet her gaze for more than a few seconds, resumed his work.

“Sure I'd be, but I was born on a ship. I’ve got more years before a mast than even the cap’n.”

He could feel her still watching him, resolved to not look up. “I’m not so familiar with a ship as that,” he admitted, “but it stood to reason a study of the way we navigate the ocean was just as relevant to alchemy as anything else. It’s not merely the science of transmutation, it’s the science of understanding our world at its most basic level. How can any alchemist claim to study that and ignore the oceans which rule our lives?” All of which was Kaminoan theory, but he suspected she didn’t know what that was.

#the bad batch #star wars #tbb tech #the au which is consuming me #but I am getting there on finishing it #except I had to move ord mantell #I have been desperately trying to not #actually put numeric distances on my maps #but I may need to give up and do that #so I can lay out the routes and speeds more accurately #I am going to keep trying not to though #you know what's nice about hyperspace?#IT'S FAKE #I can say whatever I want and it's not wrong

[ID in ALT] I've made posts before about Talia/Dick co-parenting Damian moments (will never happen but let me dream) and this came to me in a vision. Took me ages to finish for some reason 😭 and then even longer to post

#dc comics #dc #damian wayne #dick grayson #talia al ghul #batfamily #dc robin #nightwing #anyway. yes im a self-indulgent ''dick as damians secret third parent'' truther #like i DO think it's way more complex and nuanced than the schmoopy affectionate fan portrayal of it #they're brothers they're father and son they're partners they're the dynamic duo except only in past tense etc etc #but consider! I'm not immune to schmoopy affection in fanworks. it compells me despite itself #anyway it's technically not that crazy when it comes to dick and damian. they hug! often! at least they did #it's not as big a leap to these types of scenarios #also talia ''somewhat absent for complex reasons on both her and damians part but very loving and loved by her son'' al ghul #you will always be famous to me #son of the demon origin...bwahhh #anyway. someone made a comic kind of like this/like a post i made abt this topic #but way funnier bc dick and talia starting trying to beat each other up #so go look at that as well #anyway. it's been a somewhat difficult few weeks so I'm. desperately trying to take it easy #i got some reading with me (first vol of kevin smiths GA run that i found second hand and jaimes BB run vol 2!)#so we'll see how far i get through those. considering there's demons in my head telling me to re-read things (LET ME OUT!!!)#when i finish GA and BB i do plan on rereading robin 2021. as a treat to myself #it's a run I've really warmed up to as time went on #I'm keeping up w/ the current b&r run even though it is. admittedly very slow w/ some weird dialogue #i read it for the damian content more than anything. also nikas back so that's neat :]#idk I have a feeling that after absolute power shakes out we might get some more creative team switch ups #so if anyone at dc is interested in taking over the reigns on b&r...that could be very neat #mine

#ok sorry for mia i have been desperately trying to get all my ducks in a row re: new home #i have to do all my own landscaping and have vastly overestimated my ability to efficiently complete manual labor #but after a long day of installing chicken wire to keep the cats from escaping i am now stoned and filled with donuts 🥰#i still have to locate and procure a dining set but god i am so close to never having to exert energy ever again #me

Alex and my farmer Cosmo (he/him)

#my replacement pen came in today ican finally start working on artfight attacks YAYYYYY #ive been clawing at the walls itching to get my ideas out for weeks #i drew alex with wavy hair in the second drawing bc i got his dialogue where he stops using hair gel and i hc he has naturally #wavy hair ^_^ i think it goes well with him softening up as u get to knw him.. now im just trying to work up the courage to give #him a bouquet lol. i keep flip flopping on whether i wanna play this file thru my oc or just fuck it and go self insert #but i like building little ideas in my mind for how my farmer would fit in pelican town and how they run their farm so i think ill keep thi #an oc thing. i have another file on pc since 1.6 isnt released for mobile yet so thatll be my self insert thing where plan on #shooting my shot with harvey. HES CUTE.. I LIKE HIM #cosmo seems pretty deadpan but only bc hes hardly fazed by anything and after working at joja for like 4 years. hes #desperate to touch grass. i think his personality would bounce off well with alex's since he comes off as arrogant to get a reaction #frm others and then u have cosmo whos like 😐👍. i like to think itd drive him up the wall LOL #he gets more of a reaction out of cosmo when he shows him his soft side which encourages him not to front all the time <3 #my art #myart #my oc #oc #sdv farmer #sdv oc #stardew valley #sdv #sdv alex #alex mullner #doodles

How to Social:

*MC and the brothers are in the HoL dining room for breakfast. MC has only known the boys for two days now, so they're still a fly on the wall to most of their interactions. Incidentally, they're sat across from Leviathan today, watching him fiddle on his phone...*

*in its Ruri-chan case*

*with a Ruri-chan charm*

*wearing a Ruri-chan shirt*

*and watching a comfort episode of The Magical Ruri Hana: Demon Girl*

MC [In Their Head]: Okay so. I need to break the ice.

MC: I read the plot summary of the Ruri Hana anime on the wiki last night so I understand the premise...

MC: I know the names of a few characters and the basic plot structure of the episodes...

MC: I should try to talk to him about it now.

MC: ... But what about that whole controversy over the dub and the sub versions? The forums said that they're practically different shows! How do I know which one he saw? What if I get it wrong??

MC: Maybe I should do more research...

MC: NO! I want him to introduce the show to me properly! I don’t want to come off like I know more than he does...

MC: But what if I say something wrong and it totally pisses him off?? He may never talk to me again!!

MC: DAMMIT HOW DO I TALK TO THIS MAN?!?

*and then, much to MC's dismay, Levi finishes his buffo eggs and juice then gets up to leave the table. Not a word exchanged between them all breakfast*

MC: ... *sigh*

MC: There’s always tomorrow....

#shout out to the girl #who wears nothing but Cardcaptor Sakura shirts #and covers everything in Cardcaptor Sakura stickers #in my seminar classes #that i have been desperately trying to build the nerve to talk to #for the past three weeks #obey me #obey me shall we date #shall-we-date-obey-me #obey me leviathan #socially anxious mc #obey me incorrect quotes #neurodivergent mc

At the start of this project all I wanted was to 'learn how to draw' using comics as a medium and the MDZS audio drama as inspiration.

I've come *very* far from making simple, 3 panel black and white comics, and I truly do intend to go even further. Thank you to everyone who cheered me on throughout 2023, it has been an incredible year in so many ways I never could have imagined. I look forwards to drawing throughout 2024 B*)

#poorly drawn mdzs #art summary #It's so interesting looking back at how my style and technique changed throughout the year!#I used PD-wwx as the consistent factor (October is an exception) and you can see so many processes going on.#My little petri dish amoeba (with a little red bow to tell him apart from the other amoeba) <3 #Whether it's getting new markers or trying out a new shading style - it's cool seeing a snapshot of my journey like this B*)#There's certainly been a slower curve to my overt improvement *but* I have become so much faster!#My life outside of drawing has been hectic and at several points extremely stressful this year. For all the work this blog has been-#-It has truly been a life saving anchor when the darkest of times have hit.#Love is hard work. Change is even harder work. Sticking to a goal I set out for myself and striving to keep going was worth it.#And I love drawing. I think there has always been something in me that longed for this. And it is finally tangible! I can draw!!!#I wanted to make a more elaborate year reflection where I looked back at my favourite comics and jokes.#but I'll leave that to the one year anniversary.#I have also been collecting a ton of statistics throughout the year and I am desperate to share them. I'm that kind of nerd B*)#I can never say it enough: Thank you all for the kindness and support. I wish everyone a lovely 2024!!!

hilarious that with each new day that passes a new bit of dirt from JD Vance's past gets discovered and plastered over the internet...it's almost as if this is why presidential campaigns have always announced their running mates well before the convention...so that if glaring issues with a candidate came to light quickly there would be time to replace them on the ticket before they were officially locked in...it's almost as if certain things in political campaigns were done for a reason, donald...because the very same critical failures had happened before...but no i'm sure you and your guys attempt to recreate a fantasy version of history while ignoring all the reasons that history was a disaster will work this time...because you are built different and the 10000th time trying fascism will work like a charm...

#us politics #politics tw #i view the MAGA movement like this:#the conservatives have been desperately trying to jam a square peg into a round hole for a very long time #and they keep trying because one of these times its GOT to work! a very long time ago they heard the hole was more squarelike #so if they just TRY hard enough it will work!#failing to understand that the hole has become weathered and changed over time and the solution they are trying #will never work (if it ever did)#and then donald trump comes along and looks at the square peg #lobs one of the corners off and proclaims 'this is a triangle! THIS will work! I am so smart!'#and everyone around him is like 'whoa! this guy gets it! he's a genius and understands the problem! he's our savior!'#ignoring the fact that the peg is not a fucking triangle. it's just a deformed square now #so its still not going to work. and even if it WAS a triangle it still wouldn't work because THE HOLE IS ROUND.#it's the same damn peg but it looks a little different so everyone thinks its a genius solution that is DEFINITELY going to work #so they're all excited! they're FINALLY going to prove those idiots trying different types of oval pegs wrong!#they were right all along and it just took donald trump to see it! thank goodness he came along!#but that's just it-- he WAS just COMING ALONG. he was just walking by and saw an opportunity. he never spent time trying to make pegs #all he did was saw a crowd and took a chance to break an already failing peg even further #but because the people were desperate and it was different enough it seemed revolutionary #and now some of the conservatives--who can still see that the 'triangle' peg isnt a triangle are starting to look around #and see that elsewhere there have been some who have forced a triangle into the center of the round hole #and these people think well what if we ACTUALLY tried a real triangle?#and it does not matter to them in the slightest that it will never be the true solution to filling the hole #they just want credit for solving the problem #and so they are going to back donald trump and when the time is right put a real triangle in his hand #while the people trying ovals are busy arguing over the right type of oval #and once the triangle has been jammed into that hole...well...#it is going to be really really hard to force out #anyway thats a long and complicated metaphor and i probably should have just put it in its own post aaaaaahgh #long story short dont be a fascist triangle alright

Steve Rogers & Natasha Romanoff Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)

#my gifs #dailymarveledits #dailymarvelgifs #steve rogers #natasha romanoff #steverogersedit #captain america #the winter soldier #catws #black widow #avengers #stevenat #ummm........................ them <3 #the development of their friendship in this movie is very important to me #theyre like my favorite duo i think they compliment each other so well #theyre meeting in the middle here #steve realizing hes been a pawn in the shield/hydra nonsense and starting to seriously question his role in things #meanwhile natasha is realizing the same thing while ALSO having the background of having been a pawn of the kgb and trying to get out #steves figuring out that this is The Way of Things at the same time that natasha is getting a severe reminder of how shit works #they had both kind of naively thought they could Do The Right Thing and Work For The Right People #even though nats background would make you think she wouldnt have fallen for it quite so easily #but theyre both desperate to like. Atone for shit and Make Things Right and Do Things Properly #but thats really not possible when youre working for governmental or near governmental entities #anyways your honor!!!!!!!!!! theyre best friends!!!!!!!!!!!!#also i really like how these gifs turned out <333 #the version of catws i have is great for giffing

I see your 'QSMP players' irl romantic partners are patron gods that give them assistance in times of need' and your 'Tommy is Tubbo's patron god because of the marriage gag and Tubbo is very, very tired' and I raise you a 'CDawgVA is IronMouse's patron god who randomly appears to tell IronMouse to go to sleep and has bought nearly every Cinnamoroll in existence for her'.

Just. Think about it.

#qsmp #qsmp ironmouse #ironmouse #cdawgva #listen #I just think it's a cool headcanon #On one hand you have Philza whose patron god is the Goddess of Death (and also his wife)#On another hand you have Tubbo whose patron god literally just tricked him into a marriage that he's been desperately trying to escape sinc #And on the third you have Connor #Who has probably dumped a not insignificant amount of money into Cinnamorolls for IronMouse #qsmp tubbo #just because he's in here too #qsmp headcanon #qsmp headcanons

🇵🇸 ! DONATE HERE NOW ! 🇵🇸

Quick Link to Featured vetted Campaign

Offer until: Indefinitely! Artworks acquired: 16/~40 Raised: 229.12$

🌟Donors🌟: @donttellsilver, @amberspacedf, @horseplunko, @mikestoklassa, @frostytherobot, @stupid-interrupted, @ryujibauman, @halfinthebestoftheworst, @surviving-misfortunes

FAQ:

What do I need to do to show that I have donated to a fundraiser?

I require a link via DM/non-anon ask of the fundraiser and a screenshot of your confirmation screen/confirmation E-mail of the donation. If you wish - you may blur out the donor name but the donation and donation date (Any date after the 12th of August 2024) must be visible. Depending on the amount you donated you are then able to choose the categories under your tier!

Does it have to be a Palestinian gofundme fundraiser?

Although that is the focus of the campaign, fundraisers for causes such as Congo and Sudan are encouraged and accepted as well - though for organization to go smoothly and to guarantee your money back were something to happen to any fundraiser please do stick to gofundme as your venue !

Can I choose what I receive?

You can choose within your tier and whether you'd like something with Mike's or Jay's characters, and according to any other choices I may ask for specification after.

What can I do with the art I get?

You May: Share with friends - unless explicitly stated otherwise You May Not: Claim as your own or Repost

Is the artwork I get unique, or do others receive the same ones?

Unless stated otherwise, they are all handed out only once!

What does 'combination of previous offers' mean?

In nerd terms, you acquire 'coins' depending on how much you donated and you can choose how to spend said coins. One coin equals roughly 5$ and can be exchanged for a small doodle. Were you to donate 11$-15$ you could get an animatic or 3 doodles, and so on.

What does it mean if an offer is striked through in red?

It means you can still get it, though it will be a duplicate of what someone already received !

Why doesn't the last tier say "choose among" ?

Because you get the opportunity to receive BOTH a combination of previous' tiers according to the amount above 15$ you donated AND a wild card!

What if I don't want an artwork?

I encourage you to donate regardless!

PLEASE REFER TO THE PINNED VERSION OF THIS POST HERE TO VIEW THE LATEST VERSION

#rlm #rlmblr #redlettermedia #red letter media #blortchmod #mike #jay #rich #ahem so. well. the art hasn't been up for a reason. i'm embawassed. were circumstances different they would remain unshared-#but if this has a remote chance of doing Something then those feelings hardly matter!#also if this seems like Too Much... as stated it is very much a desperate measure i don't deny that in the least.#i'm trying to exhaust all avenues within my reach #pls do lmk if you have suggestions etc. too!

okay pitch for season 8. 911 redux of captain bill hader catching jake and amy making out at work and having a heart attack but gerard walks in on buck and eddie's first ever kiss which inevitably turns into more and just drops fucking dead on the spot.

#sami rambles #in my head it's after the first time eddie goes to church and nothing has been resolved it's actually made him a bit worse in the #immediate aftermath and buck can see it on him so he keeps trying to corner him about it but eddie does not want to talk so eventually #buck corners him in the supply closet and they have a bit of a whispered argument and then eddie just fucking kisses him #and buck kisses back because. this is eddie what else is he gonna do? and also he's forgotten all about his boyfriend who even is that?#and it's messy and desperate and a little bit spiteful but it's them it's them and then the door opens and gerard starts cursing them out #before he clutches his chest and drops to the floor and eddie just gets to work because to him this is a sign from god that he's not allowed #to be gay actually whoops!! so true bestie i will stay in this closet then! meanwhile buck is just malfunctioning #911 spoilers #911 show #buddie #evan buckley #eddie diaz #buck x eddie #911 spec
