#LIKE FUCKIN HEAR ME OUT

Hear me out

Evermore from the live action Beauty and the Beast but with bkdk

Cuz we all know about the Beauty and the Beast dynamics with bkdk. I just feel like that song fits them so well, that and litterally just the Beauty and the Beast song (the ballroom one)

Okay I'm so sleep deprived so pardon whatever this is but something that's got me FUCKED up about ai generated pictures songs writing is that it just fucking kills the ability to analyse for me because there's no fucking INTENTION behind it. Like why was this decision made why were these colours used what does that say about the work NOTHING because a bunch of programming took work that DID have intent and theme and purposeful choices and turned it into SLOP. Like I COULD analyse this but it doesn't MEAN anything it's EMPTY I want to EXPLODEEE

I've been dreaming of making a webcomic for nearly half of my life, and I've just started actually working on that, but... do you think it's worth it for me to start even with the decline of the scene? White noise is quite possibly my favorite piece of media, period, and it's in a format I love, so I figure you're a good person to ask the thoughts of.

(In reference to this post, I am guessing.)

ABSOLUTELY! 100%! MAKE YOUR WEBCOMIC!! Please don't let the whinging of us old heads deter you from making a project that you're passionate about.

I think it's important to ask yourself what would make it 'worth it' in your mind. What do you want out of making a webcomic? Is it that you want to experience the act of creation? Do you have a story you need to get out? Is your goal to get a book printed? To have a large audience? To improve your artistic and storytelling skills? To make a living on your artwork? To make merch? Some of these are way harder to do today, but some of these are goals that you will reach simply by making your webcomic.

If it helps at all, I had to do a lot of this kind of talk to myself when I was starting in 2011 (less because of the scene and more because I was low in self-confidence.) The only way I could get myself to start posting WN on Smackjeeves was to remind myself that I was doing this for myself only, and maybe no one would read it, and that would be ok, because if nothing else I would be making something I love and I would learn a lot doing it. 13 years later and I'd consider my goals met, even if I stopped WN before I'm truly done with it.

(Which speaking of, I feel very strongly that unfinished or abandoned webcomics are not a waste of time for either the reader OR the creator. Just because a story doesn't get an ending--or gets an ending you don't like--doesn't mean it's without worth!!)

The webcomic scene is not going to fully disappear anytime soon--it's just suffering the same corporatization that has gripped almost every art scene at some point in some way, and I think that problem has been compounded by the consolidation of the internet into a few social media platforms. But those platforms will crumble, and the corporations will bail once they can't squeeze any more money out of webcomics. The scene won't ever been the same as it was in the 2010s, but that's how time works, and that doesn't mean it won't ever get better than it is or that there's not gems to be found now. The only way it gets better is if more people make and read webcomics!

"Have you ever seen [Barkov] fall? Has he ever fallen? He's never fallen his entire career!" "Uh—It's, uh, funny and I don't know if he'll care that I say this, but he's got those—he doesn't like the blades that you can snap in and out quickly. So when he needs to get his skates done in the middle of a game, he's gotta fully take off his skates, get 'em sharpened and retie them up—which is like one of the few guys in the league, I think, that still do that. So sometimes he'll have absolutely no edge, and he'll just find a way to, like, compensate and get through it—which is incredible." "That kind-of sucks though 'cuz that's like a bad dream to have. You're waiting on something else, like—even if the trainers just like snapped it back in or whatever, like maybe they had something different they can put in there. He probably wouldn't even know!" "[...] this guy's particular. He knows his game and he's goddamn good at it! And we don't say a word so!" "'Barky, we need you out there for the face off! There's two seconds left!'" "That's what I mean! He'll compensate and he'll still look better than all of us! Like if any of us had no edge like that, we'd be screwed, right? And he goes out there and does the Barky things that he does. We're all grateful for it! He's been getting me paid for 10 years now, so."

Oohh, I got a question for you! Do you have a favorite god/primal and do your OCs?

*!!!!* OOUUUHUHUHU I have a favorite of the Twelve yes yes yes~ my personal fave is Byregot. He’s. He’s big 🫢💦 and of the Primals…… it’s Ravanna! The music slaps, and he just wants a thrill in combat. Can’t fault a guy for that. (Runner ups are Ramuh / Bismarck)

Chuu would gun down the Twelve for a single cornchip. No favorites. Puts Alexander down as a Solid ‘Would’ in any kinda questionnaire. (That thing’s a primal right?)

Tuesday‘s fave primal in theory would be …. Mmh…. Garuda? (Both the XV crossover and the XIV version) but I say in theory because I’m not sure he ever encounters them- I just think he’d like them xD. Fave of the Twelve would be Halone… definitely no biases… It’s a very inspiring statue in Ishgard ok,

Ishi’s favorite primal is probs… ah, the four lords aren’t primals… I would say Byakko otherwise xD they’re all pretty harrowing fights in game I think- I could safely rank Shinryu as their least favorite. I think Ramuh would take top slot- Ramuh was only concerned with protecting the Sylph’s and wasn’t about to take down the entire twelveswood unless he felt threatened. Pretty reasonable (or, able to be reasoned with) (visually, though… in a vacuum? Or if XIV was a game he was playing? Uhm, he’s making kissy noises and acting embarrassing abt Raktapaksa (Garuda-Ifrit combination from Eden) ….. their favorite of the twelve is a tie between Menphina and Nymeia

Mochiie‘s favorite primal is… hm…. If you stripped it to the bare bones I think he’d find Susano the most interesting… there’s also Phoenix? He’s firmly of the mind the only good Primal is one dispersed but like, Shiva gets a pass? So. Wait- no yeah Shiva is his favorite because he gets to know/(knew) her :T Finds a strange kinship with Azeyma of the twelve. Don’t think too much about it.

Tangy’s favorite primal is Good King Moggle Mog XII it’s hard to resist a song and dance (since I imagine the song during that fight is actually sung/performed out loud by the moogles during the fight xD) Her favorite of the Twelve is Rhalgr…

… das all my juice uvu there’s so many good primals……. Like ODIN….. fuckin- it’s a sword! It’s a sword that makes you fucked up and evil! That’s so hot
