#I will go back to happy posts soon

[cecoeur]

Hey Laurent, Maybe it was all of you NOT being open about anything that put him under intense mental and emotional pressure for one of the most physical weekends on the calendar? And maybe, it was the way that allowed every so-called reporter in the paddock to say the nastiest shit to his face and call it journalism.

[heartorbit]

i want to know everything that makes you happy! 💫🪐🎇

[deoidesign]

Idk who needs to hear this but time and time again isn't over!!!

Webtoon removed the "time and time again will return!!!" Banner and I don't know why, but it's not over!!! There's still another 1/3 of the comic to go! There's a lot more stuff that I'm working on and it'll be coming back soon!

Please be patient with me, I know it's been a long time... But the stuff I'm making is really good and there's a lot of reasons it's taken this long. I promise I want it back more than anyone.

I'm trying to come back around the end of October. I'm doing my best to get everything ready in time, so no promises, but I'm on track to do so! I'm just one person writing and drawing everything, and my editor was fired so I'm not even getting any notes anymore. It's literally just me. I'm doing my best I promise!

[conflictofthemind]

Dyersfilms admits to lying, 2024. Colourized.

The way she tried to drag me in the mud and claim I was making things up a month when I was correct the entire time. Actually embarrassing.

[rosekasa]

there is something so. intensely frustrating about feeling incapable of showing up for people the way that they want you to

[ecogirl2759]

Every now and again I have the overwhelming urge to archive Taka lore, and, honestly? Might do that before the end of the year.

Like, idk how many people know of the comics and stuff, but there's so much going on with this one character who canonically has no backstory. He's the ONLY ONE without a backstory and it INFURIATES MEEEEEEE

And ik I've said this before, but I'll say it again: TAKA'S ALSO THE ONLY CHARACTER IN THE ENTIRETY OF DANGANRONPA AS A FRANCHISE TO HAVE AN OFFICIAL MASTERMIND OUTFIT WITHOUT EVER BEING THE MASTERMIND!!!!

(At least to my knowledge. No other character has had a MM! outfit published in an official source directly tied to Spike that I've been able to find.)

(First two pictures are definitely official (4KOMA KINGS Vol.4), the second two I can't find a source for)

I'm pretty sure everyone already knows most of this stuff, but I just want to remind people just how much about this character we either don't know or we wish would have happened to him. And also he's my favorite so there's that :)

(And, yes, MM! Taka does have two-toned boots as well lol)

This blog is, from now on, officially a Onceler dedicated blog. I will not post about anything else <3

Oh, and of course, since it's my beloved trope, enemies to lovers, we obviously have to spice up my posts with...

And as a bonus, my banner in HD quality

That's all for now! <3

[seaofashes]

I'm trying really hard to get myself to post the more simplistic pieces and doodles that I do so... have a KidKiller piece because I love them dearly

[eclairfair98]

“Oh, but you see, Kazansky,” the boy looks down at him and smiles. Engulfed by the honey-gold haze of a sharp summer sun, the sweetest, most reckless thing he’s ever seen. “I am dangerous!”

And there’s something about that smile, guilelessly fluttering across his flushed face like a hummingbird taking flight, that digs into Tom’s chest like the gentlest of knives. Cleaves its way between his ribs.

Fills his heart with light.

It’s strange, how quickly it all happens. How startlingly unremarkable it really is. How Tom takes a deep breath, lets the faint wisps of warm vanilla sugar trickle down his too-dry throat, closes his eyes, and just knows: he might’ve entered this quaint house in the middle of nowhere with a firm plan in mind to destroy any chances his father had of securing a betrothal (even if that meant stooping low-enough to make a thirteen-year-old cry) but hurting Pete Mitchell in any shape or form, wouldn’t sit right with his conscience.

Knows that there’s no reason why Mrs Mitchell should be so intent on finding her son a match at such short notice, especially when he’s so young. (Especially when she doesn’t seem like one of those parents that unfortunately, aren’t all that uncommon in the Navy: who think their omega children have little value beyond the connections they can help forge via bonding and marriage.)

Recognizes dire straits when they’re staring him in the face: the thinly-veiled distress in Mrs Mitchell’s dull green eyes; the worn dress shirt that’s almost two sizes too big for Pete — that he was probably supposed to grow into several months ago, but never did; the stale scent of grief and pain that clings to even the most carefully-polished surface of their home.

Finds himself thinking that maybe, it isn’t all that strange. Maybe, he could spend the rest of his life with this boy. Finding out what makes him smile. What makes him laugh. What is his favorite dream to dream.

In the end, it all comes down to this: Sometimes, you meet a person and it feels like you’ve known them your entire life. A quiet sense of belonging settles in your bones, and you realize you’d do anything to keep them happy and secure.

This will be my 8th pride month on this hellsite, so it’s fair to say I’ve seen my share of discourse, some reoccurring, some not. So in the spirit of making sure everyone in my little corner of the interweb is on the same page:

No cops at pride

Yes kink at pride

Terfs and truscum alike can rot in hell

Neo pronouns are valid

Using they/them for binary trans people is still misgendering

You do not have to pass or medically transition to be valid and gendered correctly irrespective of your reasons

You don’t owe people an explanation of your identity for it to be valid and worthy of respect

White queers (myself included) check your privilege and lift up poc voices

Remember we wouldn’t have a community the way we do without trans women of colour so pay your respects

Just because you don’t understand someone’s identity doesn’t mean you shouldn’t respect it

Also “Maps” - pedos - are not apart of our fuckin community (that was a weird summer)

No I will not be providing nuance, I DONT want to get in fights about this so I won’t be, and if there’s any discourse I missed, don’t ask me about! I’m sure you’ll be able to guess my views anyway! I am making this so if anyones is like “ummm actually *something racist/bigoted/ignorant/transphobic* so actually *bootlicking*” I can block them so on the off chance I reblog actually important stuff my notes don’t get flooded with assholes!

[pink-lemonadefairy]
