16 hours of making gifs today lol...... This show is so goddamn good. I've never done anything like this with any other piece of media.

I finished making all the scenes that i couldnt get out of my head. The brainrot is real.

Thankfully, now that I finished them, I think I can function during the weekday LMFAO.

Enjoy the GIFs! I'll prolly post a few more in the coming days, depending on my schedule.

Can't wait for Act 2!

in todays news of asinine bullshit discourse on tiktok: apparently there's a hot debate over whether or not you're entitled to nice greetings and conversations with cashiers/retail workers. and. now here's the kicker. whether or not thinking no one's entitled to the pleasantries of an overworked exhausted employee is counterintuitive to the idea of a "third space". yes this is real life

@myszkaa It is completely bizarre to me, when I consider the story of Dungeon Meshi to be so clearly laid out, but I know it's because 1) fandom will always rally around the easiest, shallowest readings, the quickest and least challenging impressions, and, more importantly, 2) these attitudes will always affect characters of color in the most negative light possible. Seeing what's been happening to Kabru and Toshiro (and inevitably with Thistle I'm sure) feels like living through a time loop because they're the exact things I've seen happen in every fandom, like clockwork. The takes are all the same, just with different set dressing.

Because Kabru is positioned in the story in a way that is the slightest bit "oppositional" to golden boy Laios, and because he is not white, he is treated as inherently sinister and antagonistic, assumed to be full of himself and incorrect, because Laios is "right" so therefore Kabru must be "wrong." He is not given anywhere near the same amount of grace that his white counterparts are given. For example, I cannot imagine a fandom that would let Chilchuck be their darling if he were not white.

Even the most positive depictions of Kabru- normally from people invested in shipping him, so they don't register what they're doing as biased- often portray him as more aggressive than he is, whether that's making him short-tempered and violent or just mean and catty. Or he will be a prop for another character. Or they will go in the opposite direction and claim that there's absolutely no good reason anyone could possibly ship Kabru with anyone, and donwnplay his significance in the story to an absurd level.

Meanwhile his very obvious PTSD has only recently started to be talked about in fandom. I seriously did not see anyone actually use the term PTSD to describe Kabru until about a month ago, despite the fact that his PTSD is portrayed as clearly as Laios's autism, complete with triggers and flashbacks and panic episodes.

I like to write about Kabru because I find him and the story fascinating, but part of my motivation is that I want to make the fandom sympathize with him more. I'm trying to purify polluted waters one drop at a time.

Alex?

My veldi Alex isn't actually that big. I just thought it would be fun to draw them as a giant monster.

Anyways, this isn't canon to the crossover. But IMAGINE since my veldigun Alex was held captive like Winfrey was. Leon realising the people he was sent to work for, under the deise of finding his lost cousin, were holding his lost AND VERY MUTATED cousin in the basement. Like damn.

Extras + Crossover info below.

Crossover au stuff

Leon and Alex were both socially awkward kids. So they often hung out during family gatherings. Hence their closeness.

Alex was the first person Leon wanted to talk to after the events of Racoon city. But he was prohibited by the government. Not too long later Eastridge was closed off to the world and Leon could no longer contact Alex.

Leon wasn't as close to Louis Williams (i think that's the child's name-) as he was to Alex Williams. This was mostly due to the age gap. Leon still felt terrible when he died.

Leon was sent to work with the Lankmann foundation alongside Chris and Ashley (Ashley needs to be around more. Freaking love her). He only found out Alex was missing after arriving and trying to visit them. (Lankmann lies and says Alex is missing, probably eaten by the eastridge demon, after learning them and Leon are related.)

Leon is initially on a quest for revenge, but after almost killing Clyde he learns the truth and decides to abandon the mission and help Alex.

Chris is deaply untrusting of the Veldiguns and believes Leon is under their control.

Ashley is conflicted, but trusts Leon more.

Both Alex and Leon have a strong sense of justice, and also deal with survivor's guilt. (Alex: the halloween incident. Leon: Raccoon city)

its always so interesting to see with each chapter the different sides of shima. to peel back the layers and see how hes not at all an easy going popular pretty face. hes childish. hes unable to let go of the past. hes unable to reciprocate others' feelings properly. hes unable to express or even feel his own feelings. this latest bit with his mom felt so harsh, but i so so enjoy seeing that side of him and his character. hes fifteen and hes avoided unpacking anything thats happened to him in his past, which includes abuse and the trauma of being involved in a scandal as a child actor. people think hes perfect, and want him to be perfect, and he tries to fit that mold. so seeing these moments where hes being pushed, where his mom tries to be there for him now despite her past abuse, and seeing how he reacts to that. augh. he so clearly doesnt want to think about it. he just wants to take care of everything himself and distance himself from everyone. aughhh shimaaaaaa

When BIG dropped I was sitting in the passenger seat of my mother’s car. We were waiting for a red light to change. The youtube notification pinged and my I got goosebumps.

In all honesty I thought it was... not a joke exactly, but I thought for sure it was clickbait, that there was some kind of spin. I didn't believe it was actually happening. I went to twitter and saw some of the responses and I thought... I don't know what I thought. Everyone was (obviously) taking him very seriously and yet I still didn't believe it was actually happening. For some reason I just assumed it was being blown out of proportion. Still I was cautiously optimistic, thinking ok, maybe it’s real, but I never imagined Dan would explicitly come out the way that he did. 

An hour or two later I got home and watched it in my bedroom, alone, and cried. It was real. He was putting himself out there in a way that he could not walk back. I was so fucking proud of him. But more than that, I felt seen. Understood. The fear and the shame he talked about was so real to me. Specifically I remember that was a lot of stress about nothing and I didn’t think they’d reject me these days, but coming out is still a surprise and to anyone that isn’t out, it’s okay.

I was 23 and closeted to my immediate family and only just beginning to really accept my own gender crisis. I had so much fear about actually voicing my queerness to anyone in my family. I was out as a lesbian at work and had one friend that I even remotely said anything to about gender (which was mostly me shrugging and saying it was something I thought about, but not a whole lot.) But none of it was authentically me. I wasn’t living my truth, you know? I didn’t even know my truth because I didn’t do a lot of the work to figure myself out. I’ve always thought that I would never fully live my life until my family was gone, so I didn’t see the point in doing much exploring.

And then I saw this incredible person that I’d watched and looked up to for years had a courage that I didn't think I’d ever have. He gave words to the anxiety inside of me. I cried and I didn’t have anyone to hug but myself. 

I’m 28 now and I’m still not out to my family. It’s still scary to me. But I’ve looked inside myself a lot, and I’ve accepted the truth about who I am. I am queer. I am trans. That doesn’t change no matter who I do or do not tell. And I only have courage to accept myself because of Dan, and Phil, and entire community of people who are unapologetically themselves. 

Five years ago BIG gave me the courage to be honest with myself, and I will forever be grateful for that.

noticing the fact that he wore a shirt with the word "home" on its chest (in big bold red letters) while deciding to let go of the only thing close to home he's ever found, while literally being on the verge of dying, while finally realising that there is someone who will always choose him, has been decremental to my mental health and obliterated my sanity to unreachable realms
