#I'm a little too stoned

So I'm on episode 6: Dalek and the one thing that has always stood out to me in this episode is the sheer compassion Rose shows. Yes she doesn't know what a Dalek is, the Doctor has never mentioned them or told her about them but her first instinct is to help and comfort this being she just saw be tortured.

She see's this hard metal thing, it doesn't look organic in any sense of the word, every other alien she has seen has had a more organic look to them compared to a Dalek. She asks if it's okay and if it's in pain, she reaches out to connect and comfort this cold inanimate object looking being.

Her sheer ability to empathize with others is so rooted into her very being that it changed the Dalek. Which has me wondering how much of Rose was always Bad Wolf from the very start of s1? I seriously love this season and how they interwove the story through out the episodes and I will always wish they delved more into how Bad Wolf could have changed Rose through out their adventures.

Stone thinks he's cute!

My brain is truly my biggest ally and enemy at the same time. It doesn't stfu, even when I want it to

For the Neglected Family! Darlings au, originally Daughter and Jason's relationship was that they never met in person until he came back to the manor after his debut as Red Hood. That Wife! Darling did the whole blackmailing thing after Jason's death, which made sense because it caught Bruce in a vulnerable phase of his life that allowed her to catch him by surprise. Originally, Jason had only seen the family from afar when he stalked them for information about the Batfamily, and seeing them being just a normal happy family, with a loving mother, made his chest squeeze. His relationship with N! Daughter was leaning to hostile after he came back because he was low-key jealous of her and the life she got to experience, obviously not knowing better, while also deep down wanting to bond with her.

I intentionally made this because not only it explained how Bruce would be so careless to take off his cowl in a rooftop without checking his surroundings first (the grief affected his perception), but also because in all Neglected! Readers works I've read Jason and her had a great sibling relationship where he was this reliable, beloved older brother of hers, until he died and then distanced from her. Also, he and the Wife darling usually get along too because she adopts him and all. I wanted to change it a bit

But know I've been thinking, because I love drama, how cute of a detail it would be that Jason was still alive as Robin where the family moved in, and despite knowing something was off with the marriage, he couldn't bring himself to dislike the kids. How ironic it would be that while Dick was always everyone's reliable older brother figure, Jason was Daughter's and the only one she considered her big bro? How sweet it would be that Jason, who already felt insecure about keeping up with Dick and proving his worth as Robin, suddenly has people who look up to him and trust him wholeheartedly?

I even imagine a scene between the two of them, shortly before he dies, where he goes "I'm not as good as Dick is" and she replies "You're right. You're better than him" and his heart is about to burst. He also promised her he would always be there for her, no matter that. That whenever she had a problem, let her big bro handle it for her. He would always help her.

And suddenly he's dead. Gone. Her big brother doesn't come back from the mission and no one tells her what happened. Either to spare her the pain or because they can't be bothered to. It's a huge event for her, scarring her emotionally forever and hardening her. But then, when she's finally moving on and accepting his death, turns out he's alive. He's back, but not really. Everyone says he's not the same person, but she's too ecstatic to care about his new appearance. She can only think that her big brother Jason is back, the only brother who cared about her, and sure it might take time to get used to this, but she's willing to go through it. To wait until he's ready. Surely he won't forget his promises, surely he still loves her, surely he won't break her heart like everyone else

But it doesn't happen. He doesn't look at her, outright ignores her and sometimes he almost feels hostile on purpose. He's distant and cold. No matter how hard she tries, she can't reach him. He won't her reach him. He goes on missions with the family and then disappears, never contacting her, only showing up at the manor to talk with the others.

Now I don't know if keep the original plot, or add this one....again I hate my brain

[vigilskept]

attempting to rework the veilguard finale so the powerscaling isn't so messed up but honestly...... this might be a lost cause.

you can make some OP builds in this game but there is no conceivable way you or any of your party at their current level of abilities should even be getting close enough to land a hit on elgar'nan (wiped out an entire field of spirits and ancient elves during the raid on his fortress in the blink of an eye) or solas (turned an entire platoon of qunari into a statue garden without breaking a sweat)

Hello! I just discovered your blog and I immediately became captivated by your webcomic, but I'm unsure where to read all of it. I know it's on Webtoons, but I can see it hasn't been updated for a while, and you still post about it.

Are your physical novels just prints of the webcomic? Are they a continuation? Is the story complete? Thanks in advance!

Hi there!

Glad you found me and are enjoying my comic!

It's only on webtoons, and the story is not complete yet! We're 2/3 of the way through right now. It's currently on hiatus, and it's scheduled to come back in about 2 months!

I'll explain why it's been so long if you're curious, but also for my followers who might also be wondering about it under the cut. Sorry, it's pretty much just me complaining haha

I took a month off I took 2 months to get the books printed I took a month to prepare my next comic and I took 2 months to write the rest of the series (I knew the character arcs I wanted, but not the time periods or mysteries!!!) I've been working on actual episodes since then

I had to take some time off because of some pretty extreme burnout due to the sheer amount of work it was to draw over 800 pages and write 6 complete stories in a year and a half... I was getting sick almost weekly due to the overwork, it was really really bad honestly. I was having to work 60+ hours every week just to keep up...

The nature of the comic itself is also difficult... Each of the arcs is a complete, self contained story which can be read (ideally) without context, and my arcs need to be about 10-13 episodes each... And since I have an exact number of episodes to work with, it's even harder.

It takes a ton of planning and a ton of refinement, and working week to week with no breaks I was forced to put out second or even first drafts, so I just wasn't happy with the work I was doing... And to do that for the rest of the series? I wouldn't be proud of the work I did.

Plus... To be entirely honest, webtoon has treated me quite badly IN MY OPINION... They deprioritized me before I launched (I had to beg for more promotion, I'm not exaggerating), they outright denied me the opportunity to even ask for a raise, I don't make any money on fast pass and they pay me less than my partner makes working at trader joes. My first editor left me completely hanging, my second editor (who I loved) was fired... And they told me I wouldn't get a third season before my first season even finished. So it was just repeatedly completely demoralizing.

I'm sorry it has taken so long, it'll have been 10 months by the time I come back. But I realized... I won't get promotion either way. I won't get more episodes either way. I won't get more money either way. So to finish everything, to make it feel good, to make it something I'm proud of, I chose to take longer to make it better.

I am fully aware I will lose a significant amount of my readership for this and it might genuinely affect my career moving forward. But it's what I had to do! So I'm sticking to my guns on it, and I'm confident long term it'll be worth it. It never could have been this good if I didn't take this much time.

been wanting to do a retexture of the Lunar Lattice mod for ages, which is requiring me to learn an entirely different fur painting style from the ts4 cat skins. but I think the areas where it's more finished look pretty decent so far

Finally saw Wicked today. I fear it is, in fact, actually all that and a bag of chips. Like it is genuinely that good

In Trey Parker and Matt Stone's South Park episode "I'm a Little Bit Country", Benjamin Franklin (Norman Leer) says that by allowing the people to protest, the United States government could go to war with whomever it pleases and the country would be forever blameless.

I think Jowan nags at Eldwin about drinking too much and smoking is bad for you, you know. And Eldwin's just like dude it's either this or hard drugs. Take your pick.

Of course, they could stop him. They would have to confine him to the house as his work requires him to hang out in the city a lot and they couldn't keep an eye on him 24/7. They could do that. His work as an enforcer is valuable, it's so easy to get him to do something and you know he'll do it well, but it's nothing a non-mage couldn't do.

But it would be a hassle. Frankly, it's not worth it. Because what they're working on, soon it won't matter. There are two outcomes.

Either it works, and anything regarding his health and wellbeing won't matter. Or... it doesn't work and anything regarding his health and wellbeing won't matter.

As long as he does his job, they really don't care what he does. Besides, it's not like he'll be able to forever, and he's served them so well over the past decade. Consider this current freedom a final act of mercy.

(and frankly he's a more likable person when he's on something. You know those people who drink to combat social anxiety? And like, it's a problem you shouldn't do that? yeah. Clyde encourages it at their social events because he's actually less embarrassing.)

Also like right now it's easy to not recognise it as a problem. It's only sometimes, on the these days rare occasion he's out of the house. It's not that bad. I feel like he actually gets worse when he's away from the syndicate, because when he's not living in constant fear and every moment is a fight to survive, not remembering how it feels to not be in fight or flight (or freeze and fawn in his case) when he's forced to confront his thoughts. Survival is a distraction. He doesn't know how to handle being safe.

And that's when it becomes a problem. No longer is it "just" an occasional sip or smoke to steel himself for a social event he's forced to attend or to distract himself from the acrid scent of burning flesh. No, it is when he's supposed to be free that he finds himself relying on these crutches more and more and he won't notice until it's too hard to go back.

He thought his indenture was terrible. He didn't imagine freedom could be worse.
