I know it's such a cliche at this point to the point of garnering eye rolls, but we really cannot lose sight of the fact that 2x97 is the Most Episode of All Time. You cannot ignore Essek in that episode, obviously, but honestly the fact that that happened only serves to highlight how buckwild everything else was. That was when Veth got her body back. That was when Caleb first directly set his sights on Ludinus. That was when Fjord tried to ask Jester on a date and instead ending up thirdwheeling Yasha and Beau, who WERE essentially on a date. That was when Jester locked Sharpe on the balcony. That was when Cad got Beau SO high and Fjord was forced to babysit. That was when Fjord and Yasha told Marius he had to kill someone to stay on the crew.
If any ONE of these things had happened on top of the Essek reveal, it would've been notable or memorable, but no, the BREADTH of unhinged happenings in that episode is actually stunning.
#critical role#mighty nein#genuinely just. INSANE episode#there is nothing not unhinged in that episode#weren't there also jokes about Marion thinking they were having an orgy. like i don't even remember.#I've definitely written this post before but I'll DO IT AGAIN#like it does sometimes feel like over time people gloss over the fact that this episode has SO much#cuz a lot of the fandom remembers it as the essek reveal episode#and that IS a major turn in the plot of the narrative but#it's really like. one of SO MANY THINGS#also honestly can we all just take a minute to rewatch that conversation with Ludinus at the party.#i feel like it would improve a lot of the c3 discourse.

A glimpse into the mind and body of a bloodbag survivor!
Here is a little profile on Declan's health (physical and mental) post captivity! Keep in mind that he was kidnapped, tortured, fed from, and mind-controlled to the point of catatonia...
tw / mentions of physical and mental health conditions
(tagging some people who expressed particular interest on my previous post about this! apologies if you did not wish to be tagged!)

Happy summer, everybody!
This has been a big project to take and while there's stuff to improve I'm pretty happy with it. Be sure to zoom in the big picture for details and read the comic from left to right. (Needless to say, please don't try A.B.A's behaviour.. For your safety)
Bonus doodle:
#a.b.a#paracelsus#slayer#guilty gear#I almost forgot slayer's shirt pattern! I was also supposed to draw his cape floating over sharon to shield her from the sun but...#this whole drawing collection took roughly a month to complete and I forgot. I'm too tired right now#speaking of. it's my first time drawing sharon I hope she's okay!#yes slayer carries and wears in the nose his 200 spf sunscreen from xrds treasure hunt animation :)#as for the big main picture. it left me quite exhausted and I know the lighting leaves a lot to be desired but I'm proud! learnt a lot#first time drawing blue para too. I hope his metallic sheen is alright#more than aba's skin sheen for sure. I'll improve it in the future! btw tweaked a bit her attire's palette from last time and made her keep#the headband cause trying to figure out how her hair would properly fall was a hassle lmao#fun fact: the bird is an european herring gull#the crab is an edible crab and the palm trees are coconut palm trees with no fruit lol#I wanted to draw fan palms which are a kind of palm tree that deserves more love but the leaf shape was so difficult to draw#I did struggle a lot with these two.. they look more like feathers but again. that can be studied and improved in the future#despite all the lows summertime can have for me whenever it's a nice day and we can go to the beach I feel everything is worth it and will#be okay. hope I could translate that here. hi new people I tend to ramble a lot in my post tags#art tag2b named#sharon

People really need to give Steel Wool a break sometimes, man- They messed up with Security Breach and now people act like EVERYTHING wrong with modern fnaf is all exclusively their fault when it's really not.
#Chip Chatter#especially when the issue literally WASN'T ATTACHED TO THEM AT ALL!!!#People really just say shit I stg#there's probably one person who'll think this is about one particular post#this post is a culmination of things#the twitter bs going on right now about modern lore and some people pinning all the blame on steel wool even though they don't write the#lore. A conversation I had yesterday with some people where one person kept blaming and shitting on SWS for the smallest of things#The fact that any time I try to talk about a small issue with modern fnaf in any fucking way I'll have people tell me shit like#“it's steel wool what were you expecting” regardless of if the problem was even their fault#and just generally people giving Steel Wool so much shit and most of the time it being over fucking nothing#Like I GET that Steel Wool fumbled with Security Breach oh my fucking god that was almost 2 years ago can we MOVE ON!!!!#They're improving!!! They fumbled one game and a lot of the factors involved weren't their fault anyways!!! Can we give them a fucking#break and just move on with the rest of the series already!!! I'm so sick of hearing people complain about SB when it's been almost 2 years#and Steel Wool is showing nothing but signs of improvement#Cough uhm anyways#of course you can criticize Steel Wool and I'm not saying they've never done anything wrong ever#just don't needlessly shit on them especially if the problem was out of their hands.#Rant over I'm going to bed

ough. just finished 100%ing the help wanted dlc, corn maze ending and all. i am so excited to never have to play another fuckin plushbaby level for the rest of my life god bless
#it's cool seeing how steel wool has improved over time#like not only with how they improved from security breach to ruin#but with how they improved from hw1 to hw2. i liked hw1 but. hw2 is so much more polished and adapted WAAAY better to flat mode#............ and also hw2 doesn't have hw1's plushbaby levels. they have some levels inspired by em but. boy howdy they're Better.#they've grown a lot since hw1 is my point!! it's been neat seeing that for myself while playing the games all outta order hehe#i'm real excited to see more from the team. the most impressive thing to me across their games so far has been their creativity!#very cool visuals and settings and really fun ways of storytelling#like the princess quest ending in hw2?? i'll never ever get over that ehehe#that's why i'm real excited for secrets of the mimic. bc they've rly demonstrated that they can make games that knock my socks off :3#thank u for coming to my ted talk ldkslkfdj#fnaf /

Pew-pew! Incoming re-draw of alt-Giegue/Gregory! I haven't drawn in months, so it's a bit shaky, but I don't think that it's too bad all things considered.
#.peanutart#giegue#giygas#.gregory#earthbound zero#earthbound#earthbound beginnings#mother 1#mother 2#gun /#gun tw#idk how to draw guns for crap so forgive this iteration#I'm sure that I'll improve over time

Well, bad news ;-; I have to go to the hospital... Like, not just visit it, stay in it. Bed and flavorless food and checkups and all. ;-;
Hopefully tomorrow, can't be today unfortunately.
#personal#health#looooove it that as soon as my mental health started to improve my physical one-#-fell apart at the seams#when it is not one thing it's another#hilariously enough I prefer physical pain over mental one#I can't describe it well#but like..#to not have to focus on my grudges and want to kill myself 90% of the time is great#knowing my luck sooner or later I'll lose peace of mind again#some asshole will wreck my life out of grudge or envy or wish to prove themselves#but hell if I am not enjoying the calm before the storm!

on healing and on fear (tags)
#(typed this up at 3am and scheduling for later) no one needs to read this 🙏#today i went back to the site where i got injured back in may to partake in a sport which i haven't touched at all since the injury#and i think what struck me was the realization that#i don't know if i'll ever be able to stop being scared again :')#for a time climbing was very special to me...#it was one of the only ways i could feel myself improving so tangibly when improvement is usually so difficult to track#i liked seeing myself get better at something 😭 i liked going with friends and puzzling over the same problems... i liked having something#to look forward to after work. and perhaps having something to look forward to sounds simple... but for me it meant so much :')#for the first couple months after the injury i couldn't wait to get back into it#and then one day i woke up and i was just afraid#the fear feels so much more tangible now that i know i am not overreacting... it's awful knowing that in a way i was right to be afraid#i always knew there were risks associated; i have always been cautious#but i had just been starting to learn to be braver 😭#and fuck... today i stood there and looked at the wall and thought. how can i ever not be afraid again?#how can i go back to how things were before? when i loved this? when i could tell myself that - despite the fear - it was meaningful to try#i wanted to come away with the takeaway that i could take things slowly and get back into climbing - maybe precisely because#i remember so keenly how i loved it - but how could it ever be the same?#😭 i know this is just part of growing up but#in some ways i am tired of growing up... :') in some ways i just want that joy as it was then#delete later probably#i suppose i haven't lost anything but typing this made me sob for something i couldn't quite name

OMG ASK GAME???!!! 🥹🤗 IM SO HYPEEE. okay lemme ask no.21 and 26 pls and thank u. Okay for the freebie question I always wanted to ask you: when did you realize that you LOVE Aki? Not like “hey this character is my fave” but the “yeah, I’m down bad and in love” stage.
thank you so much for asking me :D and sorry it took me a moment to get to answering 🏃♀️
21) if you're a fic writer and have written for this character, what's your favorite thing to do when you're writing for them? what's something you don't like?
aki is so fun to write... I really enjoy writing his personality and his dialogue!! I love writing him in all different aus and ideas but my favorite thing is when I get to write cutie romantic aki... I think he'd canonically be such a shy sweetheart when it comes to romance... forever obsessed with writing him as the sweetie he is. also I often browse the manga when I'm writing for him to better understand his dialogue and little quirks!!
and as far as something I don't like... hmmm there isn't much I can think of, I do really enjoy writing dialogue for him, but sometimes it can be hard because he's so matter-of-fact when he speaks haha
and for the freebie... okay so basically... aki was always my fave when I first read the manga, but once I actually finished it that's when I fell in love... I think the conclusion to his story is so beautiful. and it really shows all the pieces coming into place, and how kind he is and how much he's changed as a character because of his love for denji and power. it made me so emotional, and after that I couldn't stop thinking of him :,)
#aaaakkkkgggii...#like when I saw aki at first#I was like damn he's hot#but then when I finished the manga#he took my heart with me#I reread the manga again a while later because I missed him#and I noticed so many things about him that I didn't before#and then you know I wanted to read fics of him#but there weren't many at the time#so I was like well you know what. maybe I'll try writing my own#and the rest is historyyyy#it's so crazy that it's been over two years since I wrote my first aki fic!!#and my writing has improved so much#I'm extremely happy so many people enjoyed the first few fics I made because I probably wouldn't be here without their support#ask mags

Man nothing like talking to other writers to make you feel like you're not a proper writer
#(everyone is being very nice and it's interesting to hear about everyone's process)#it's just like. i don't really HAVE a process or think about flow or plot or character development#i just spit what's in my head down on the page and then usually read it over and make minor changes#and post#and like. it seems to work for me but also i feel like i don't know shit about like. the craft of being a writer or whatever#and like. i don't really want to? like i want to write well and improve but like#reading writing advice and stuff makes me want to scream (think that's a pda thing)#and I know there are certain things I *could* do to improve but im lazy and want instant gratification#i know if i take the time to slow down and spend more time editing in depth or whatever#i just WON'T. and then will never finish or post anything#anyway this is one of those things that feels like it's an autistic (possibly adhd) thing for me#but also other autistic/ADHD writers DON'T struggle so much with this stuff or actively enjoy it or w/e#and i know i know if you've met one autistic person you've met one autistic person#but it's just another thing that makes me feel like im failing at being a person#not just a neurotypical person but an autistic person as well..just failing at being a person#anyway this is fucking stupid and obvious validation bait or whatever so feel free to ignore#i just needed to vent#i should just not talk to people ever bc somehow it always makes me feel worse about myself#I'll shut up now

Kaj's Kink January #3
Es ist wieder so weit!
Einige von euch erinnern sich sicherlich noch an das Spiel, für alle anderen: Ich habe a) sehr viel Spaß an monatlichen Writing Challenges, b) nicht immer einen besonders guten Zugang zu den offiziellen Kinktober Prompts, zumal ich mich im Oktober auch noch um Flufftober und Whumptober kümmere, und c) Spaß daran, kinky Porn in allen möglichen Zusammensetzungen zu schreiben, deswegen will ich wieder versuchen, im Januar jeden Tag ein mehr oder weniger kinky, mehr oder weniger smutty Ficlet zu posten (vermutlich wieder zu je 700 Wörtern) und bitte dafür um Prompts! Jeder im DDF Fandom ist herzlich eingeladen, sich zu beteiligen!
Ich hab ein Dokument erstellt, wo ihr Prompts eintragen könnt, das vermutlich bis ~Mitte/Ende November offen sein wird. Jede Bearbeitung ist vollkommen anonym, also tobt euch aus. Da wir ja doch ein relativ kleiner, gut erzogener Fandom sind, hoffe ich einfach mal, dass nicht irgendein Witzbold Blödsinn damit macht.
Link zum Dokument
Prompts via ask, reply oder DM sind natürlich auch okay!
(Wer zu einem prompt etc seinen Username/ao3 name added, würde das ganze auch als gift bekommen, aber das ist euch überlassen.)
#kink january#kaj rambles#und wie immer: ihr könnt grundsätzlich *alles* requesten es ist nichts zu kinky oder zu dark#ob ich am ende auch alles fülle ich allerdings eine andere frage#eigentlich wollte ich noch ein zwei tage warten und es nicht *direkt* am 1. november aufmachen#aber heute geht schon wieder so weiter wie gestern aufgehört hat#and seeing the prompts/ideas always improves my mood#so go wild#i'll reblog this a couple times over the next days/weeks#currently still debating putting a link on ao3 since there are apparently parts of the fandom that aren't... fond of me and#i don't want anyone potentially messing with the doc...#i mean i usually save a copy at least every other day but still...#idk. anyway. have at it.

new lia ref!
#art#traditional art#watercolour#oc art#ocs#oc group: lia crystal darling#oc: lia#basically the same except now theres slight tweaks to her design#and i emphasized more of her vaguely neurodivergent aspects of her character#SHE is a woman who will look at u with an intense gaze but she is not thinking about you#she is thinking about lasers. and if u let her talk about the lasers thats when you get the :D#and you gotta love someone like that. you gotta love it#i dont know if i'll redraw any other refs. a certain fight of art is coming up. i might do like rough redraws.#most oc refs i drew were like a year or two ago before i started using better quality watercolour paints#so theres a bit of a disparity there along with me improving over time#but also my usual sketchbook paper got slightly worse quality in their manufacturing lately so maybe that makes up for the disparity LOL

Ok at the wise hour of 1am I've decided I need to start some sort of musical or physical hobby to enrich my life, and if I actually get the motivation to do it I'll document my progress on tumblr to hold myself a bit accountable. But first things first, I don't know what do to, so help me decide.
#setting the results a week from now so i have time to mull over and decide for myself too#hm i do have some preferences but i don't want to skew what others vote#not that I'll necessarily listen to the poll i might decide on my own lol#anyway woo self improvement hopefully

Hehe tomorrow yall get to see my Observer cosplay!! It's kinda shit but it's a good framework to improve it in the future. Dunno if I'll be able to finish their cane though, as I can't get the resources I need for it...
So expect some gags with the costume- memes, jokes, and the like. And maybe details on Don't Freak Out, Don't Resist! >:)
#astrid speaks#fr fr its gonna look BAD but i'll improve it over time#rn it's just a pain to get what i need
