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.

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

I think I'm in the "conscious incompetence" stage of being a social animal in the real world and it sucks so majorly. bro what do you do after you realize you're bad at socializing and then in-person interaction gets harder because you know you're failing at it now.
#Robin processes emotions on main#I WANT to get good at socializing#I used to be better and I'm now worse >:[#in some ways. in some ways I've improved (e.g. am kinder). but I used to have more confidence and an easier time staying present#now I'm always shutting down and running away#literally I leave the room and go calm down in my room#I want to learn to regulate that impulse and become a chill person to hang out with. but How#I've been struggling lately with punishing myself for running away (not physically but with like. spirals of self-recrimination)#I think one good step would be to get mindful about praising myself for small steps again. I'll change faster if im kinder to myself#also I think seeking reassurance from the people I'm around more often even if it seems silly would be good#ALSO. a major problem I'm facing is that I am living with my parents. and my little sisters. and I don't... I... it's rough.#I used to parent my 15 (then 9) y/o little sister when my parents were gone and I still struggle with feeling Responsible For Her#so every time she's a little cringe I end up feeling like it's my fault and I'm gonna be punished for it and I don't know how to deal with#—how to deal with it#BIG SIGH#I'm TRYING to become a good adult who can help others rather than just living in desperate self-defensive survival mode forever#but it's so hard bro#and another issue is that I'm growing further and further apart from my parents' fundamentalist brand of Christianity#and feeling more and more incapable of making friends and bringing them to visit me. because I have to be perfect around my parents#how can I make friends if I can't offer them hospitality??#how can I be a fully realized adult if I have to hide in plain sight??#I need to move out so bad. even if I'm lonely at first I HAVE to move out#in related news my seasonal job is Over and I'm looking for full-time work! please pray for me if you're the praying type or just#send me encouraging words#that would help#<33333 I will be ok it's just a bad situation rn

I guess since it's going to be his birthday, Satoru deserves to be cuddled for once (◡‿◡✿)
This is my OC from this fic by the way
Yes, this was made using 3D models as a base, I wish I could draw poses this well by hand lol. And I wish I had the time to practice drawing more and actually color this, but I life is just (ʃᵕ̩̩ ᵕ̩̩)
Maybe one day!
So in the meantime, we get some quick, sketchy SatoYura visuals for Satoru's birthday (⺣◡⺣)♡*
#gojo satoru#satoru gojo#gojo satoru fanart#gojo satoru x oc#jjk oc#jjk#satoyura#my art#no but like i forgot about satoru's birthday lmao this was just a coincidence#i've been writing them being cute so now i wanted to SEE them being cute y know#so i'm resorting to 3D models don't judge me#because i'd feel bad copying any actual image out there but also my brain can't produce poses out of nowhere lol#but also i need to not draw over directly the 3D models next time otherwise i'll never improve lol

was trying to figure out why I feel so Wrong rn and I think it's because I didn't follow my usual daily routine like At All and now my brain is freaking out. woke up at a vastly different time, had entirely different tasks throughout the day, took a nap at a weird time (to make up for the fact I had about 3 hours of sleep last night), zero human contact for the past 15 hours, and ate different food from usual (various leftovers from social events/thanksgiving, instead of cooking for myself like normal). and before I really realized that these were all things that were Bad For My Brain I was just wandering around my house like "why do I feel like garbage?? I've literally been outside so much today my brain should be happy"
ANYWAY here's to me not remembering I have issues with unstructured living because my days have been so similar for the past 4ish years that I straight up Forgot that things being too different too fast makes me crazy ✌️
#rye.txt#I'll be fine lol#the sudden shift in my daily schedule and my generally unhealthy eating today were the big things that made me feel Bad#so now that I am actually cognizant of this I can take steps to mitigate it tomorrow#god. what the hell did I even eat#leftover soup. that was breakfast (very out of my ordinary). uhh. a lot of pie (grandma made a ton for thanksgiving).#a tangerine that miiight have been on the edge of going bad#(thought I should eat a fruit. fruit did not improve status)#reheated popcorn chicken? that was not a good decision I felt so gross after eating that#hrm. ok my issue is that I feel like I Need To Eat These Leftovers So They Don't Go Bad#otherwise i'll be Wasting Perfectly Good Food#BUT. I don't want to eat it and eating it makes me feel generally unfulfilled and kinda blehg#ough. why can't I be normallllll#I'm also not dealing with the whole 'zero human contact' very well tbh. which is weird because I'm a deeply introverted person#and usually spend my days avoiding people like the plague#but idk. it's been literal years since I've spent and extended period of time completely alone#I don't knowwww i don't know#I'm gonna invite some friends over tomorrow and get them to help me eat these dang pies#ALSO. ITS BEEN REALLY COLD TODAY. AND I HAD TO BREAK INTO MY NEIGHBORS' HOUSE#(was not breaking in; I was trying to take care of their dogs since they're out of town)#(but their door code AND their garage door code weren't working#and I didn't have a physical key to use#so I had to push my way in through a back door that'd been blocked by a pile of boxes taller than my head#and squirm into their garage in order to get inside and take care of the dogs)#(was a very stressful way to spend my early waking hours)#i ALSO had to drive to the AIRPORT this morning which SUCKED. had to drop off family#which like I'm happy to help but also airports suck so much ass I hate them#anyway. today was sort of shitty#but mostly I only have myself to blame#did not structure my day well enough

#I am losing my fucking mind#I am so sick of being treated like I'm the reason we're in this spot and having the sacrifices we HAVE made completely ignored or downplayed#I KNOW there's more to improve on but FUCK#we don't go out with friends and haven't in over a year#the two times I did go out with friends it ate me up inside because I had to spend money#I was disgusted with myself#we haven't gone to a sporting event in at least two years#we haven't had a single date night in the same time frame#and yet we get criticized for fucking. buying gifts for our birthdays and christmas#we probably spent less than $80 for christmas fuck offffffffff#and I got shit for buying my growing two year old clothes because she had NOTHING TO WEAR FOR WINTER!!!#but no that can't possibly be true we got so many free clothes from friends it's totally impossible that we didn't get anything past 18mo#TWO YEARS AGO#so obviously I'm just spending all our money on shopping sprees obviously this is all my fault I'M the problem#and now I'm seriously considering giving up swim class and a new insulin pump entirely :(#why should those get an exception but not the small hobbies keeping us from going insane#genuinely idk how I'm going to make it the next few months#we're so fucked#and God knows if I'll be able to breast feed this time#or if we'll be stuck paying boatloads for formula again#not to mention how bad the hospital bill will be...#*just to clear things up this is not a vent post about my husband it's about the family giving us financial advice :P

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

Effect I've shown to have on people in this fandom from time to time that I am proud of is making them actually speak their opinions and put them in the TAGS! Like, you guys don't know how it feels, to see someone go from "no I am afraid to say a thing because I don't want to be harassed" to "fuck it we ball tonight *passionately disagrees with the takes of toxic popular people and tags the post with fandom and character* 😎"
Like... guys, this IS the way to go, okay? More of you should finally beat it in your head that bullies draw their power from people that are AFRAID of them! If nobody covered in fear before them, they'd be nothing but stupid clowns in their stupid echo-chambers that just block away from the world and eventually having no one left to torture eat their own! This is NOT the norm when people are scared to post their interpretations in the fandom for videogames that specifically demand interpretations, shamefully resort to lurking in some private Discord servers just to share their art and thoughts, stay away from discussing a character they like because too many toxic fans put their claws on them and so on! I don't understand why many people are okay with this kind of fandom experience? And so many of them are older than me or unlike me have enough reputation to make REAL difference in the fandom, why?? I don't remember who owns a blog for suggesting headcanons for Soulsborne games but iirc they allowed bullies to scare them into making a rule against suggesting headcanons about Gwyndolin's gender because "people are mean to each other so it's a nono now and Gwyndolin is only they/them now 🥺". Like.... congratulations, you've betrayed the very point of your blog, which is to share different headcanons, to do what? To cover in fear before jerks that didn't grasp the concept of "up to interpretation"? Why would you do that, instead of showing people who can't respect different interpretations that they are NOT welcomed?
I don't know, man.. it is normal for autists to care about fandom a bit too much, I suppose. I don't see it as something inherently inferior to The Reeeeeal Life uwu. And so, I just hate to see people just willingly lend the power to bullies? Of course they are going to continue to make the fandom unpleasant, if they see that they can own the place by just leaving disheartening comments, laughing at someone with their mindless sheep mutuals in a reblog or sending a couple of anon hates! But like, when I realized a few other people saw this is unfair and should not be encouraged, and started at least saying something too.. idk, it gives me hope. It is hard to explain but I think 20+ or even 30+ age category is more than enough to move past the dumb high school dynamic! Not in the passive "eh who cares about fandoms anyway, it is not worth it and I am too mature to care" way, but in the "nah I won't stand for Cool Kids and bullies and nor should others" way
#I am sorry I just#I am reaching the point where I realise some people CAN afford telling jerks to get lost#not everyone effected is just so mentally harrowed they can't handle any confrontation#some people just choose to be passive but the thing is it won't make bullies stop#and the ones effected more are young people just joining the fandom and seeing that like..#idk that liking gehrman or shipping gehrmaria is unsafe or that only certain miquella + mohg takes are 'allowed'#and yeah gender and sexuality headcanons seen as statement and you're bad if you dont see them.#I just think fandoms can be better. at least the 16+ ones or older#but only if bullies lose the authority they hold over many active passionate fans#and that authority is something we as fandom always choose to give to them ok?#not even only soulsborne fandom. just any fandom#though I guess this post is a huge hypocrisy on my end because me and my friend did-#-get absurd amount of harassment over fandomry and met a guy put into hospital by maria simps on the way#I am dead serious those evil people planned something ridiculous against him for just-#-pointing out her moral failings back when it was seen as instant misogyny#I guess I am not the best advertising for 'saying something'?#but in my defence 1) I defeated my bully and#2) the more people disapprove the better. of course two gehrman fans dont do much#now three or five or ten? thats better#besides I improved myself haven't I?#I got better at prioritizing bad behavior and not interpretation that causes it#like I am more chill about slandering gehrman or miquella these days!#but only as long as it is not used as weapon in weird moral battle or to shun 'wrong' fans#It is complicated!!! but progress was made and I'll make sense of it some time!!!#fandomry rambles

Hello, hello. You seem to be not doing so good which is very understandable. I just hope to cheer you up a bit the same way reading through your blog has cheered me up during very sad times of mine. I figured the best option would be to draw Sigma from BSD since he seems to be your muse.
Sorry that it's sloppy and very amateur; I'm not very good at drawing. Thank you for all the art you let us see, I'm sorry for all the no good things happening to you and for the possibly weird way I'm doing this (I'm new to Tumblr), and please ignore if this makes you uncomfortable!
I've been putting off answering this because I wanted to hold onto it for a bit and give myself time to try and articulate how much it means to hear these words. but I've never been good at articulating my emotions so instead of continuing to put this off I'll just say thank you thank you thank youuuu and reading this Did make me tear up a bit. thnakyou
#ask n receive#also don't apologize for your art looking amatuer !! we all gotta start somewhere and seeing people grow and improve over time#is a wonderful thing. that's why I don't delete my old art even though I think it sucks#recognizing your own shortcomings and knowing that you can do better is the first step towards improvement and eventually#making something you can be fully proud of#all that to say: never give up !! you're doing great and I believe in you !!!!!#and thankyou again again for your words. I'm still kinda doing bad but I'll get through it <3

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 /

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
