user232 girl, pipe down

user890 I don't see the problem?

user52 why do you assume that? do you know her financial situation? or you a close friend of either of theirs who knows what's going on? if the answer to these questions are no, shut the fuck up, thanks<3 peace and light to you.

How did you get into bookbinding? What would you recommend for someone who's interested in getting started?

Hey there,

thank you for asking. I got into bookbinding by undergoing training. I'm a professional bookbinder, which made it much easier (just getting shown how things are done and having experienced binders look at my mistakes and explain where I went wrong is incredibly helpful).

For someone who's interested in getting started in bookbinding and does not have the opportunity to take classes. I would say, first pick the style of binding you want to try. I would recommend to start simple. Give yourself the time to build up your skills and get to know your materials (glue, paper, board, maybe bookcloth). Many like the coptic binding to start with, but you can start out with a case binding too. It will be more complex, but it's totally do-able to begin with too. Then search the medium you learn well from and look for information there. For example, there are fantastic, beginner friendly books. I like 'Books boxes and portfolios' by Franz Zeier in that respect. It focuses on the basics, but not only of books but also boxes, folders and portfolios.

There is also really great online content written and with pictures to lead you through the processess step by step.

As for videos. Sealemon has easy to follow instructions. I'm personally not a huge fan of how she works, because she skips too many steps I find important too, BUT professional binder here. As straightforward bookbinding is in theory, there are a lot of details one can pay attention to, but which are not essential to produce a fully functional and good looking book and she does get one there. Bookbinding can be a money drain, but it doesn't have to be! You can go a long way with simple, improvised tools. Pretty paper can be bought in craft shops and printer paper from bureau supply sections, box cutter and x-acto knives. Cans of food, milkpack, big stones for weights. If you don't own a cutting matt, you don't need one. Some flat and clean board that is 2mm thick or more will perfectly do. The few things I do recommend a bonefolder, it just makes things easier on the fingers (and nails) and other materials can leave coloured streaks. (As do rings and nailpolish btw. so if you like that, apply a clear top coat on the polish and take off rings before working with white paper). A 25/3 or 30/3 linnen thread for sewing together with a block of beeswax to wax the thread before sewing. (Beeswax candles will do, but not normal candles. They are made of stearine which will make the thread sticky and more difficult to use). On a last note, there's @renegadepublishing and their discord serverw here you find all stages of binders. experienced ones and beginners to ask questions. The server is huge and can be a bit overwhelming, but there's always soemone there (or a few) who will do their best to help and likely has run into a similar problem at some point. So this got a bit lengthy and I'm sorry for that but I hope it helps.

Do you have any tips for improving art? Love your blog btw

first off, thank you! 🫶🏻 but sure, lemme lay some out for you.

DRAW THINGS THAT INTEREST YOU. this could be anything. favorite animal, favorite character(s), a musician or actor you really like. this is the absolute key for me. you can always find variety within the niche, but having a muse that inspires you is what will give you the power and the motivation to follow the next few steps. you can study their features, put them in all different situations, and really master their likeness.

TRY SOMETHING NEW EVERY TIME. once you have that muse that really captures you, don’t let yourself get stuck drawing the same exact thing over and over. push yourself to try the difficult pose, the daunting reference, the style you haven’t had the courage to attempt. every time i start a piece i have the possibility of trying something different in the back of my mind, even if it’s a very small difference. this is how you find what works for you!

GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO FAIL. no matter how much art you’ve made, there’s always going to be that moment where the final product doesn’t match what you had in your head. that’s alright. you can always start over and try again, or move on to the next thing, but don’t let yourself get stuck in something that didn’t turn out how you’d hoped. if you find this happening often, try shifting to a different medium for a bit. (i did paper collage!)

QUANTITY IS GREAT; QUALITY IS BETTER. now you may say, you’re one to talk, you post art every other day. and yes that is true, and it has definitely increased the rate at which i’ve improved. however this is a very new phenomenon for me, and i’ve always been able to find improvement regardless of the amount of art i was making because of the first few tips. it’s better to make art with purpose than to drudge out things you aren’t inspired by.

WATCH ARTISTS ON YOUTUBE. they could be teachers, or just creators that share their process, but either way it’s a fantastic way to passively soak up technique like a sponge. it’s good to seek out those with a similar style/process to you, but my personal favorites are marco bucci, robin sealark, james gurney, art coach, arleebean, and peter draws.

Feel free to decline if you get to busy. Your well-being comes first! Have a fantastic day and I wish you luck on all future endveavours!

Hello fellow INTJ, thank you for participating!!! I had lots of fun writing your request, it was genuinely cute 🥹❤️ Btw you remind me a lot of Fyodor haha but I didn't match you with him... anyway, I hope you'll enjoy your match! Let me know if you do, my dear Fyodor-anon ❤️🍡 *some dango to enjoy while reading*

🔮 So for my event, your match is... SIGMA

🔮 Why did I choose him for you?

• Okay first, Sigma is an absolute sweetheart with 100% lee energy, which matches your ler vibes • I feel like he'd be amazed by how many talents you have! He's the kind of guy who'd sit down and watch you play an instant for hours • He'd always take you with him at the casino, but he wouldn't make you stay in the middle of the crowd... he'd probably let you watch the cameras and see how people are playing. He'd love to hear your sarcastic comment's about the lack of brain of some people • I feel like the perfect date for you two would be an indoor date or exploring hidden gems where you can be almost alone and admire the landlord • I feel like his laughter goes from extremely high-pitched to silent... you'd probably tell him "Now I can play another instrument" just to see him blush • He'd be ✨️hopeless✨️ in a chess match against you, which would lead to him pouting at you... and obviously it would mean cheer-up soft tickles!! (I feel like he'd prefer a softer touch in this context) • HOWEVER... he'd be a great match against you in card games because he can memorize the cards so he'd have a big advantage to match your superior strategizing abilities! • I'm sure you'd annihilate him at Risiko, and he'd destroy you at Memory hahaha (if I had a game night with you two, I'd have to get ready for a major humiliation /hj) • I can imagine you two having a window on your ceiling to fall asleep while stargazing, although sometimes you'd also go out • I'm positive that Sigma would close the casino for one night just to do stargazing with you from such a high and secluded spot! • I feel like you'd enjoy reading together sometimes, and then you'd comment on the books you read at night... Sigma would LOVE your more formal speech style • Thanks to his amazing memory, Sigma would remember to make sure you follow a diet full of iron and take iron integrators... he'd do his best to take perfect care of you

🔮 Tickle scenario

Note: "мой ангел" means "my angel"

Fyodor Dostoevsky and Nikolai Gogol probably weren't the best guys around... to be honest, they weren't even close to being good, but they actually did the best thing when they introduced you to Sigma.

He was an angel to you, even if he couldn't see it. How he both listened and opened up to you, watched you play instruments as if you were a music deity, how he showed appreciation towards you and the quality time you spent together... you two were a match made in heaven. Different enough to complete each other and similar enough to be compatible.

You were thinking all of this as you watched your little angel asleep on the couch, breathing deeply but without making a sound. He looked like he was having a peaceful dream.

You had asked him if he could listen to a cello piece you were practicing on. It was an extremely relaxing piece, some critics even said it was probably a lullaby written by the composer for his children, but you didn't really think it would work on your boyfriend.

However, you had to interrupt that blissful moment for Sigma's sake. It was almost dinner time and sleeping at that time was surely going to mess up his sleeping schedule. You chuckled, glancing at that sleeping angelic face once more before tracing his back lightly to wake him up softly.

A smile formed on the dual-haired guy's face and it got wider and wider until it turned into a sleepy, groggy giggle. "Good morning, мой ангел~" you smirked while he looked up at you, still giggling as the last traces of sleep left his eyes.

"I wanna sleep... just keep playing your cello..." he tried pointlessly to swat your hands away. "No can do," You sing-songed "It's dinner time, and you need to get up if you want to sleep tonight." Your words made him groan, but he knew you were right.

"Go awayyy" He whined, and then he made the worst mistake. "Did you... just throw a pillow at my face?" You asked, showing playful indignation, and decided to make him regret that choice.

"5... 4... 3..." You started counting, and Sigma knew what was coming. You ignored his pleads and neutralized every attempt he made to get away, "2... 1..."

"Gyahahahahaha Ihihi'm sohohorryehe pleheheahase nohohohot thihihis!!!" He kicked with his legs and punched the couch, as if doing that would give him any relief or protection from the tickling he was receiving on his back, sides, ribs and underarms. "I'm afraid I have to decline your request, dear... you had your chance to listen to me, and now you have to face the punishment for not doing so." You solemnly scolded him. You didn't know why but that kind of tone always flustered him.

"YohOHOu're meHEahAHan..!" He complained while you drew little circles in the hollow of his underarms. "Says the one who threw a pillow at my face..." You quickly retorted, and then you decided to go for the kill without any kind of warning.

"NAHAHAHAHA NOHOHOT THEHE NEHEHEHEHEHEHECK!!! I'M SOHOHOHORRY IHIHI'M SAHAHAHAHARRYEHEHE IHIHI'LL GEHEHET UHUHUHUHUP!!!" He immediately caved in. It was adorable for you how he could've handle even two fingers tracing his neck.

"I didn't even get to use my whole hands there... but I got what I wanted and I'm getting quite hungry, so I'll let you off the hook this time." You decided to be merciful and helped him sit up, giving a couple of minutes to recover.

You noticed how late it was, and noticing that Sigma was fully recovered, you got up and walked towards the door of the living room. "Come on, let's go to din-" You tried to say before getting interrupted by two hands squeezing your sides.

"Hahaha I got you!" Sigma exclaimed proudly, eager to finally get his revenge on you... only to find out, to his dismay, that you weren't even twitching.

"Nice try, мой ангел~"

"H-how can this- No! Nononono wait wait wahAHAHAHAHAIT..!"

[dollarstoreartsupplies]

i lowkey would totally be interested in your richie and stan dance moms au lore. I read that fic ages ago and now can't get richie and stan being dancers out of my brain. especially because im a dancer myself

Richies strengths are performing (obviously), but i also think she would have this super cool and unique quality to her dancing while stan is super technical. and i think stan would struggle with a perfectionistic mindset (ugh dont we all) and sometimes lose her artistry while richie is relaxed and genuinely just dances for enjoyment, not really caring if shes not completely technically sound

(btw you are such a talented writer i could read ur writing forever. and you characterization skills are so fucnjkh good)

(Here's the fic for reference btw)

Dude, homie, bestie, my dear like it’s so STUCK IN MY BRAIN because like?? I in general am of the opinion that gals Stan and Richie were in dance classes as little kids together, because I think it’s fun, and I ALSO think they’re the two funniest characters to throw onto reality television? Like,,,, come on?  

(Also like I’m Bad at describing dance for a person who dances so unfortunately there isn’t nearly enough dance info forthcoming in this as there is in my brain)

SO the basic timeline and lore built out in my head is:

Age 2: Richie and Stan start dancing at the ALDC in those baby ballet classes, Andrea and Maggie become friends sitting in waiting rooms and tiny Richie and Stan baby bond INSTANTLY, so they’re best friends immediately 

Age 8: The show starts filming, and it follows the actual real life incredibly fucked up dance moms lore where everyone thought they were signing up for a short documentary style thing about dancing and got locked into YEARS OF TELEVISED CHILDHOOD TRAUMA

They’re in a one year contract at first, which then gets upped to a five year contract once the show starts picking up, so six years in total that they’re REQUIRED to be on the show.

Stan genuinely is very invested in dance and both her and her parents specifically put a lot of weight in her being successful (without meaning to be kind of fucked up about it), and she’s an only child with a stay at home mom who can spend all her time on Dance, so that’s why they sign on

Richie is pretty much Gonna Do What Stan Is Doing and is generally having fun (-ish) with the being a minor celebrity of it all because she’s Nine Years Old so she’s down

She does have one older sister but she’s way, way older (18 when Richie is 8 kind of vibe) so she’s going to college by the time the show begins and therefore Maggie and Went feel comfortable committing to it

(There are some episodes where Maggie isn’t there because of Richie’s sister and Abby thinks she’s a bad mom because of it and says it a lot)

It’s also important to note that they’re just normal people being intensely manipulated by production to sign on

At the start of the show A La Maddie (DISCLAIMER: i refuse to write any semblance of real person fanfiction, Abby doesn’t count because she fucking sucks, so decide on ur own if the normal real dance moms girls are there or there are just other random Dance Children) Stan is very much the golden child who Always wins and Always gets very good solos because she’s abby’s favorite

Their solos are mostly Ballet and Lyrical because they are technically incredible and a very pretty dancer

HOWEVER like you said she is SUCH a perfectionist (mood) and takes every loss REALLY personally, so it becomes a sort of toxic fandom mindset that she is a spoiled brat because they cry a lot and have panic attacks over not liking how a dance went (FILMED LIVE ON FUCKING TELEVISION AT EIGHT! WUH OH!) 

Richie is sort of set up to be a Jojo type character, where she’s REALLY REALLY fun to watch dance and a ball full of energy but because she’s so Much all the time the producers end up painting her as very, very rude and sort of lazy brat

But she’s a fantastic performer, which is crazy important in dance, and it’s not like she’s BAD she’s just not super technical? Which actually sometimes works in her favor because she ends up being a really a super versatile dancer

Jazz and musical theater are her Big Two but she’s pretty much good at everything except ballet because WHO IS? (Stan)

The dynamic is basically Stan is a incredible dancer but really just at certain styles (idk if I’m describing this well but she’s very much the kind of dancer you watch and think Wow She’s Good At Dancing and Doing This Correctly) and Richie is very much a jack of all trades master of none

They’re very good at duets though because Richie gets Stan to loosen up and Stan refuses to let Richie Not Practice Constantly

Richie’s coasting the bottom of the pyramid WEEKLY even when she wins because of her ‘behavior’ and Stan is usually at the top

Generally the production team tries to frame the two of them as enemies because they’re SO different that it makes good television for perfect, ballerina Stan to be constantly butting heads with obnoxious brat Richie but they’re genuinely such good friends it Does Not Work

One episode is set up to sort of push the Hate Each Other narrative in season one where they give Stan a really cheesy, big performance jazz number and Richie a really, really technical ballet number, expecting it to be a big competition and fight but instead they just help each other practice and cheer each other up when they get upset

Stan wins the first nationals, obviously

Age 9-10ish: By the second season it sort of starts to pick up in intensity and both of them start to get homeschooled/setschooled and the show becomes their entire lives, which is Bad

By this point both of their mental health isn’t Awesome but Stan is really not doing great, especially because they’re so anxious the social media perception is really getting to them, and her mom is trying really hard to get out of their contract, but they’re stuck. 

Stan and Richie (along with their moms) decide they’re both leaving together the second their contracts are up.

Someone else from their team wins nationals second season but because Stan is so in her head about everything she gets like fourth, which is also Bad For Her and the narrative starts to slightly switch from ‘golden child’ into ‘is she Still the golden child?’

Age 11: THIRD SEASON, though, Richie win’s nationals and Stan gets second, which like… isn’t supposed to happen

(Fun actual Dance Moms fact: pretty much all the competitions are rigged but nationals are Less Rigged like they’re tilted in their favor but the judges are a little more real)

Abby is PISSED and basically tries to make it seem like the judges messed up scoring or it was a mistake and it’s one of those Famous dance moms scenes because Abby is basically saying that Stan should have won because she is better and Richie is clearly very genuinely upset (which doesn’t happen a lot she’s very good at like making when she’s upset a joke when the cameras are around) and Stan fully stands up to Abby and calls her out on her bullshit 

After that the whole energy skews more against Stan where suddenly production is airing a lot more of the little insults they usually cut out specifically for Stan to try and push the agenda that Abby is unfairly nice to them

Everyone sort of blames Richie for it a lot of the time, though, and the two of them probably have a thinly veiled duet called like The Bad Influence 

Age 12: Abby really fucks up and says something Genuinely So Bad (and probably Pretty Antisemetic im ngl because have you fucking watched dance moms?) to Stan so production literally cannot make them stay legally, like with Kelly situation, where it could get them into actual trouble so Stan and Andrea are allowed to break their contract and leave the show

The show runners cut most of the argument out and edit it to seem like it wasn’t Abby’s fault

Richie and her mom try to follow but because it’s a specific situation that wasn’t aimed at Richie they aren’t allowed

They both know they’re leaving when the contract is up but there's still two years stuck on the show without her immediate best friend support system and it really sucks

People make a lot of sad edits about it and Richie thinks it’s really funny but also it's genuinely the crux of why she's QUITE so mentally ill (in general being hated by abby was never good for her but once Stan leaves it's ROUGH)

Age 14: Richie’s off the show, she knows she’s gonna be off the show, so she like fully flips Abby off in the dressing room after nationals and storms out with her mom and the show honestly just keeps it in because it’s good tv to have a big reason like that to explain why she left

They worked it out so Stan and her mom are waiting outside and they drive them home and hang out and it’s a good time :)

OTHER LOSERS LORE:

Richie and Stan were best friends with Mike from before the show and they went to school together/continued to post both of them leaving the show

She’s in One (1) episode for two seconds at like a party or something and Richie and Stan pretty much Just Post That Scene when they’re older, like if someone asks them about their favorite moment they’re like oh yeah when mike was there

She’s got a big social media following from the two of them and thinks it’s hilarious

They meet the rest of the losers in college

Bill and Mike are college roommates who are crushing hard on eachother so she becomes their friend through Mike

Stan and Ben are roommates and Ben is dating Bev so that’s how they become friends

Bev was a childhood Dance Moms stan, like ran a fan instagram account and went to meet ups because I think that's really funny don’t worry she’s better now

Bill and Eddie have been best friends since elementary school so she gets dragged to a lot of their hangouts and is completely and entirely unaware that Stan and Richie are like c-list celebrities for a WHILE

tbh this is like a very train of thought bare bones explanation but do with it what you will :)

random game roundup 1

The Other Side

included in: Indie Bundle for Abortion Funds but also it’s pwyw with no minimum

this is a game where you are trapped in a room and need to follow instructions on the terminal to drill through the walls and escape. it is very short (i completed it in about 14 minutes). this game excels massively in atmosphere in art direction. i found that interacting with objects was not extremely clear (as in it was hard for me to figure out where exactly it wanted me to be clicking). really enjoyed having to diegetically press the keys on the keyboard to interact with the terminal.

overall would recommend if you want a quick horror experience, especially for the asking price of “free”

My Little Pony: Super Ethical Shipping Climax!

included in: Indie bundle for Palestinian Aid, also it’s free

i am not the target audience for this game.

Naughty Elves - Christmas puzzle game

included in: Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality, Indie bundle for Palestinian Aid

not porn :/

fairly straightforward puzzle game. santa’s elves stole all the presents so you need to throw snowballs at them through the window until they fall over. i think it’s really funny but not very well communicated that you are stuck outdoors (presumably can only enter houses through the chimney)

i don’t think you should play this

Attention Heroes!

included in: Indie bundle for Palestinian Aid & it’s pwyw with no minimum

required minimum of two players so unfortunately i will have to skip. the description is really funny tho i really want to find out what self-centered gameplay means

Epic Battle Fantasy 4

included in: Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality

honest to god fucking flash game. fantastic. this is a jrpg which are typically very hard to get an impression of in such a short time period but fortunately this one lets you loose basically instantly. i can tell theres insane depth to this already. the humor is really dated (its from 2014 so whatever) but the art style is generally very cute. music is hot ass tho. i am actually probably going to come back to this one after i’m done with this post

Discovering Colors - Animals

included in: Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality

Bara Blackjack

included in: Queer Games Bundle 2022

this orc did not come dressed for strip poker.

it’s literally exactly what it looks like. which is awesome. main complaint is that his dialogue would show up and vanish so fast i had no idea what he said most of the time. he really wanted me to see his penis though

he’s circumcised btw

Hungry Frog

included in: Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality, but it’s also free

no shit this is frog fractions but sincere

1977: Radio Aut

included in: Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality + it’s free

i didnt realize peppino was a real name i thought pizza tower made it up

this was really cool tho its a short biography on the life of a communist who was killed by the sicillian mafia for standing up against them.

This Call May Be Recorded

included in: Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality + it’s free

 what if telemarketing had undertale combat

i kinda didnt like this at all tbh. it didnt feel like it was trying to make a point. like not even the point of expressing frustration at working at a call center. the people you call are all really annoying caricatures and you are just a poor guy following an incoherent script. this really needs more time in the oven

[littleeyesofpallas]

btw the game i've been liveblogging unprompted is Volcano Princess, currently on sale on Steam for under $10 until July 13th.

It's a riff on the old Princess Maker games, which were a cult classic hit of the 90s following the mystique of Princess Maker 2's failed English release. The original Princess Makers games were made by Studio Gainax(yes, that Gainax)'s short live videogame department, and was a unique spin on the stat management and "pet simulator" genres. While some of the series's contemporaries were things Digimon or Tamagatchi, with more fantastical premises of being the custodian of fantasy creatures, Princess Maker opted to take that same approach to raising a (mostly) human child.

Like it's contemporaries, it boasted a complex tree of variable outcomes, with various endgame elements could exist independently yet simultaneously to create a disproportionately large number of unique endings: so daughter's career, her marital status, and relationship with you as her parent could all be mixed and matched depending on different stat levels and story prompts you did or didn't achieve over the course of her lifetime. (There were something like 50 basic endings to Princess Maker 2, all with unique character portraits, and that's before factoring in narrative endings that were only distinguished in end game text, or marriage options that each had their own secondary illustrations.)

It was a great novel little game experience that bafflingly never saw many knockoffs or copy cats, despite being a pretty easy, if tedious, formula to emulate. There have been various super small indie type games in the style in just the past decade or so, but until this none that really capture the proper charm of the original Princess Maker games.

There have been a few extremely sketchy porn games made for things like flash that use some variation on this formula, and one fairly big production by the infamous Illusion studio, all which of course lose the implicit charm of the original. But for a very long time that was it. And then the much more wholesome, but narratively more linear, Long Live the Queen(also available on Steam) provided a much needed breath of life back into the formula in 2012.

Speaking of Steam the first 4(?) Princess Maker games are also available now, most of which are their first English release ever. (When I was a kid I had to have a fansite open with crudely edited menu guides and translated game scripts just to be able to take a guess at wtf was going on.)

Anyway, all this to say that Volcano Princess, with all it's clever subtle little innovations and updates to a familiar and near and dear to my heart gameplay experience is quite literally the game I've been waiting for for decades. So if anything in this weird rant has piqued your interest this is absolutely worth the price of a cheap lunch that they're asking, even when not on sale.

⭐𝐇𝐞𝐛𝐢'𝐬 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭 𝐃𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐨𝐱⭐

Hey, guys! I've opened a Secret Drawing Box (you can find the link in my blog's pinned post) and after a long day I decided to check if any of you had left something in there...

...And I've realized that YOU ARE ARTISTS.. I mean...

I'm going to comment each drawing I got so far qwq♥ So I can support each of you and tell you all how special you are for Hebi♥

I'll give a name to each masterpiece too x3 (don't take it too seriously, I'm simply behaving stupidly♥).. so

Let's get started!!...

⭐𝐀 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫��𝐭 𝐚𝐝𝐦𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐫?!

~Okay.. First of all, I got this handsome senpai right here confessing their feelings for me.. It kinda looks like Gentaro but.. I'm not sure that it's actually "Yumeno-senpai".. I can't hide the fact that I smiled brightly after seeing this, because this person right here is so cutee..! Also.. The drawing style looks so adorable as well. QwQ Seriously.. I'm happy that you guys like me and my content! I'll keep doing my best to "feed you" xD♥

By the way (I'm talking to the person who made this..) I love you too! :D Keep it up, queen/king!♥

⭐"𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐊𝐮𝐤𝐨"

~I knew it!! I knew that someone would have drawn Kuko for me! Haha!! I didn't give this masterpiece a name because the artist has already given one.. and.. it's "it's Kuko". You cannot deny the fact that the artist didn't need to tell us who the subject of their masterpiece was.. Because Kuko is Kuko!! And you recognize him immediately after seeing his eyebrows and expression..!

Jokes aside, it's so cute! I love it! qwq♥ Thank you so much for this small goofy Kuko (btw.. Kuko is already goofy haha xD)♥

⭐𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐀𝐳𝐮𝐥 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐨

~This anon artist right here simply decided to give us a masterpiece which goes beyond the frame of a fantastic painting..!! It's a revelation!! This is the one and only portrait of the actual form of Azul Ashengrotto!! No one has ever seen Azul's actual physical appearance... No one knows about his secret.. Only this person.. This anon artist has been able to see him in person.. to discover what humans' eyes do not really know.. to discover and realize how terrible, how frightening the reality is..!! Which is.. that Azul Ashengrotto.. is an octopus with very big eyes!!... Legends say that this anon artist has never been found.. People say that they have tried their best to escape this evil creature.. but that Azul is taking them kidnapped and forcing them to look at his BIG octopus' eyes!!...

(Okay.. maybe I've overdone.. Lol! Jokes aside, thank you so much for this! ♥ I really like it! It seems so fool but so cute too! Like.. a small octopus pet? qwq I'd like to have Azul as a small pet--- noooooo--- wait--- *hebi.exe stopped working...*)

⭐𝐑𝐚𝐦𝐮𝐝𝐚, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭…?

~The anon who drew these two cuties here (and the following Doppo) already texted me in my inbox to be sure that I had recieved them.. At first I thought they were kinda linked. I mean.. It really looks like that Sasara is speaking to Ramuda! Like.. "Ramuda.. You know that Hypmic is getting a season 2?!" and the news really explains well why Ramuda has that shocked expression on his face! Haha!♥ Btw I've already told this anon.. They look so talented! Thank you so much!♥

⭐𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐚-𝐃𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐨-𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚

~Finally it's this cutie's turn.. I decided to name it "Monna-Doppo-Lisa" because... He looks like Da Vinci's MonnaLisa somehow?! I mean.. Doppo's eyes are so lost in thoughts.. He's looking at the viewer but, at the same time, he's absent, completely lost in his thoughts while he's letting his arms down, as if he's completely stressed and fed up of thinking... No one can really imagine what he's thinking about. .We only can tell that he's tired...

...And that he's so cute and pure and precious- AAAAAAAAAA- *Hebi faints*

⭐Thank you so much for sending me these cute and adorable drawings!⭐

If you want to send me a drawing, check this link here--->♥

Damn Good Pizza Recipe

My Awesome Chowder recipe seems to have gotten pretty popular, which makes me very, very happy. Good food for all! So, let’s follow it up with the latest iteration of my “Detroit style” pizza recipe. Had some tonight and ... damn! Hence the name. So, if you don’t mind a bit of history, here’s where it started.

https://www.seriouseats.com/detroit-style-pizza-recipe

Please start with that version, because I’m only going to describe my twist(s) on it. J. Kenji López-Alt did a fantastic job putting it together. It moved me. So I got the right kind of pan, and some “brick” cheese, and made this several times over the period of almost a year. It was good. Fun fact BTW: I used to live in Detroit, just north of Hamtramck, where Buddy’s became famous for this style ... but I didn’t remember them. When I asked my brother about that, he said, “Yeah, we preferred Shield’s” (which made the same style and was also close by) so I guess that’s why. Anyway, when I replaced the pepperoni with kielbasa, “Hamtramck Style Pizza” was born and became a family favorite.

But I still wasn’t satisfied. The crust kept turning out a bit too focaccia-like for my taste. As it turns out, I have a friend who’s a great cook. I noticed that she and her hubby made a similar kind of pizza regularly, but in a cast-iron skillet. I asked, and she said it was not preheated. Just a cold skillet. OK, I thought. Let’s try it. In fact I made the same dough, with half going into a Detroit-style steel pan and half going into the skillet. I also realized at the last moment that I was out of brick cheese, so I used some cheese curds (from Wegmans) that I had on hand.

Oh. My. God.

The skillet version was hands down the winner. Excellent crunchy crust, like any good pizza should have IMO. Squeaky curds. The first time I made it with Italian sausage, this time I made it with the family-traditional kielbasa, and both have been amazing. To summarize, here are the differences from the version at Serious Eats.

Half recipe for the dough (to fit the skillet)

90 minutes rise time, 20 minutes relax time (so 40 minutes quicker - yay!)

Kielbasa instead of pepperoni

Curds instead of brick cheese

Light on the sauce (a matter of personal taste - my wife prefers none at all)

24 minutes at 450°F

The previous version was pretty good for an amateur. This version is “fuck your pizza shop, I’d rather eat my own” good. Friend confirms that they never order pizza out any more either. I just hoovered up 2/3 of the last one, and could probably have eaten the whole thing gladly if I didn’t need to feed my wife as well. It’s just ... Damn Good Pizza. I hope you enjoy it.

Qiubai’s swordsmanship is actually just extremely pragmatic and not at all Wuxia

But it IS actual wuxia though.

As in actual concept and not the genre of crouching tiger hidden dragon (great movie btw). To brush off her (swordplay techniques) as a 'antithesis of wuxia' kind of undermines the whole point of her character that she's a walking, purist (or pragmatic) embodiment of the concept, instead of just being a 'wuxia soul with anti-wuxia swordplay'. (Which is why I was bitching so much about her costume design months back)

Her skill names even have actual names instead of being 'Skill 1/2/3/ stronger attack / triple arts attack' (it would have been very funny though) they're just not as fantastical as Crimson Firmament—Shadow Assault !!!!1

To quote from that wikipedia page above

Although it lacks the fancy and stylish movements of typical swordplay styles, it is more effective than the most complicated form of sword attacks.

That's one trait of her style: efficiency, and i think generally most wuxia martial arts tend to follow suit, to borrow an excerpt from Gu Long's essay

But once one’s martial arts reaches its peak, there’s no longer any need for any weapon, because he “can send flowers flying and pluck leaves and wound people with those”, any object in his hand a potential weapon. Because his sword’s form has already transformed to formless. So the top masters in wuxia fiction often wear loose robes with big sleeves and don’t carry an inch of iron. That’s quite an interesting phenomenon.

It's mentioned multiple times how she just keeps sharpening her sword just like how you sharpen knives to cut stuff easier yea? yea

Idk how good this analogy is but it's like how punk is a whole subculture but nowadays has been reduced (in most media, the public etc) to its aesthetics stripped of its ideology among other things like YES i know wuxia is technically is a genre but its not as shrimple as 'wandering swordsmaster that strikes at injustice, usually by lakes and rivers' with flashy moves even, they're not just limited to that. Exacting justice is a core tenet but it's not the only trait either where was I going with this

not that important to the topic but there's a mis-TL in the first screenshot: she was surrounded by fellow operators and not enemies (仇白被一堆干员围在中间的场面)

and another in file 3 where someone asked qiubai how many chivalrous people like her are in Yan: it's not 'only me'

“……最好一个也没有。” > '...hopefully none at all.'

And in case anyone else read the wiki profile TL and thought/is wondering if 'lakes and rivers' is (exclusively/physically) literal: no lol

Oh yeah, one of the funniest revelations that come with Qiubai’s eventual playable release and Files is that, once she arrived at Rhodes Island, a few people enthusiastically asked her for her attack names, which greatly confused her. For reference, Qiubai is a professional, dedicated wandering swordswoman from Yan with a strong sense of justice, so RI Operators expected her to have flowery, dramatic names for her martial techniques, much like Ch’en and Mr. Nothing do. The result?

“What in tarnation are you talking about?”

This is immediately followed by the confirmation that Wuxia in fact exists in Terra:

So basically, Rhodes Island is huge into Wuxia (I mean, they do have movie superstar FEater in their roster), and Ch’en and Nr. Nothing are dramatic chuuni freaks specifically, but otherwise, no, actual Yanese swordsmasters aren’t going around yelling forty-word long attack names. And then comes the next reveal: Qiubai’s swordsmanship is actually just extremely pragmatic and not at all Wuxia:

She doesn’t seek beauty or elegance in her style, she Gets The Job Done. Because she actually fought for her life a lot of the time, no aesthetics, no superfluence, just actual, honest-to-Sui swordswork.

Basically, Rhodes Island expected her to bust out Judgment Cut when they heard this stupidly good swordswoman was coming on board, but then they test her and she’s just

And the thing is, it works really well because she IS insanely good with a sword, just, using actual pragmatic skill instead of Wuxia supermoves. She is Not A Wuxia character in terms of her fighting style, despite being otherwise a Wuxia As Hell character in terms of concept, as this wandering swordsmaster that strikes at injustice, usually by lakes and rivers.

Which is extra hilarious when you consider she was named after Dugu Qiubai, a character known as the Sword Devil from Wuxia novels who was so Wuxia that he could use sword techniques without a sword.

“Qiubai, are you going to use your Three Tragedies One Sever Sword Of Pilgrim’s Gratitude Slash technique!?”

“W-what? No, I’m just going to defeat the enemy by disarming them, don’t be weird about it.”

Review Blurbs: Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach - Ruin DLC

General:

-For one, huge props to the devs for this DLC; you can definitely tell they looked at community feedback and reception from SB and not only polished the game a lot more, but also added in stuff they knew the players would like (ex. the wet floor sign bots have an actual purpose in the game + lore implications, Glamrock Bonnie official appearance and backstory regarding Monty, the Map Bot callback with the Mask Bot, etc)

-They also returned to their roots with making Ruin feel more horror-based than SB was. SB wasn't bad for not being as horror-based, but I know a lot of FNAF fans felt disappointed with the lack of horror considering FNAF is not only a horror franchise, but was a huge part of the indie horror game scene. They upped the atmosphere and it payed off pretty well

-Cassie was a great character, her sassy attitude felt very natural and fun, and unlike most horror video game protags she actually questioned the weird shit happening around her like a normal person would. Plus her backstory with Gregory was brief but gave us plenty to work with, I feel like the two have great matching personalities and it makes so much sense why they're friends

-Somehow they managed to make the animatronics even greasier than in SB post-pizzaplex fire. Chica having a garbage bag hanging out of her gut when she kills you in the bathroom was haunting, I loved it and I want more (also Monty physically should not be able to function)

-Ok the devs definitely looked at community fan works cause fucking Eclipse was canonized like I can't believe the crazy bastards did it lmao. I'm very curios about those implications cause I don't think Sun and Moon were ever Eclipse before, they would shift around on duty and the virus in SB is what made Moon go haywire, but somehow we made the two merge entirely and that caused the virus to leave them? And become a secret third option called Eclipse?? I'd love to know what that whole thing was about

-SB was completely different from how the previous FNAF games were and some felt like it was following the new indie horror mold and abandoning the iconic FNAF style, so it was nice seeing the camera and puzzle system implementation; though its still a first-person survival game, the new system made it feel more like classic FNAF

-The V.A.N.N.I. system was interesting, from a lore standpoint I think its a bit silly that a pizzaplex would have all this extremely advanced AI technology (SB was kind of a disaster as much as I loved it) but the mechanic was fascinating; I like how they took a little part of SB (Rocky's eyes letting you see through walls) and sort of expanded on that to make it a fun play feature in the DLC (though the potential to miss things when you're on either V.A.N.N.I. or Real World mode does stress me out but that's just me lmao)

-Love how it said "Security Node Breached" when you completed the code breaks. Cause Security Breach. Haha. Anyways.

-That one part where you're going down a ladder and the security bot is dead right in front of you was fantastic and deserves its own spot here

-I can't believe the game made the most difficult and tense enemy in the game the mini-DJs but didn't show us the actual DJMM. This is a crime against me specifically.

-The Security AI was a great character to force the player to be vigilant and put pressure on them when doing the node breaks, makes it so you can't just stay in AI Mode to avoid the animatronics

-Everything with Roxy was 10/10. Her reaction to Cassie not being Gregory and immediately going into human-companion mode, her still being pissed as fuck at Gregory and wanting her eyes back (which was hilarious btw), her remembering Cassie's birthday during that scene and protecting her from the Mimic... it does beg the question though of how exactly Roxy is unaffected by the virus where Monty and Chica weren't, cause even in SB she showed a level of sentience that Chica and Monty didn't. Questions questions...

-Headless stomach-mouth Freddy was not the boss fight I was expecting but damn did it slay, like I said they upped the spookiness and it payed off

-Gregory helping us escape the Mimic underground but then killing us "so they wouldn't get tracked" is confusing, I think that was the Mimic talking to us still and also the one killing us in the elevator, but does that mean we never talked to the real Gregory? Was there a point where we talk to the real one? Does it depend on the ending? God I have so many questions

Criticisms:

-I watched one letsplay so this might not be a thing on other people's runs but the enemies (animatronics and the Security AI) didn't really seem like threats. The game AI might've been jank cause it was pretty easy to get past their pathfinding, and it took a long time of being "caught" by the Security AI for you to actually die. The game felt like it had no stakes which decreased the intensity (they needed better pathfinding to chase the player around more consistently, and the Security needed to be more difficult to avoid/quicker to kill the player)

-I know its a DLC so its gonna be shorter but the sections went by way too quickly, I don't know if that was intentional or if the devs were on a time crunch but it felt hard to get immersed in the chase scenes cause of how fast they went by. I think one section had a jumpscare and then a chase scene that lasted 20 seconds before it was over, they needed to give more time dedicated to chase scenes and the jumpscares that start them (the Monty one at the beginning was great for example)

-Cassie's voice didn't always feel suited to the scene, they gave her a bit of a whiner/impatient voice which is fine, but even people with her fed-up attitude will have moments of fear, sadness, anger, and I think Cassie's VA needed more voice direction cause in moments when she should've sounded terrified, it sounded like she hit an annoying inconvenience rather a life threatening situation (she needed more range basically)

-How did Roxy come back when we deactivated her? Cassie essentially just hit the power down button so I know she wasn't dead but how did she push her own power button back on? Someone else would have had to do it for her to save Cassie. If I'm missing something then criticism rescinded but if not, its a loophole

Final Thoughts:

The game was less lore-heavy and character interaction-driven than SB, so the pitfalls of the gameplay were a bit glaring. Regardless, it had many shining moments and the devs really did listen to the community which is always much appreciated and shows care for the audience. Ruin is a solid horror game to play and I recommend it for anyone into FPS games and FNAF.

Biweekly Media Roundup

- Across the Spider Verse (Movie) - I pretty much already knew this movie was going to be amazing given how Industry-changingly Incredible the first one was, but wow man-What a spectacle. Visually I think it’s even more impressive than it’s predecessor and honestly the best looking thing I’ve seen all year, with the different animation styles for each character and dimension being a joy to behold every time. Gwen’s watercolor dimension was my favorite location and I loved how the colors would shift with the characters emotions and bleed down the screen. Spider-Punk was a standout as well with his paper-craft style and fantastic design making him steal every scene that he was in. I also really liked Miles as a protagonist in this one, he really got to shine here. I don’t really have a lot to complain about, the writing was tight, both villains where fantastic, the soundtrack slapped, the only thing I’m mad about is that I have to wait a year to see the story resolved-but that’s a feature, not a complaint.  As a side note I do find it pretty funny how horny everyone is for Miguel btw, like don’t get me wrong I get it, he’s a big tiddied well designed tragic backstory vampire cringe fail DILF, he’s lab tested to be popular on the internet, it’s just pretty funny that I can’t scroll for 5 minutes without seeing his thiqq ass plastered on my screen, y’all are thirsty. 

- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Video Game) - Progressing a bit slowly due to some other stuff I’ve got going on, but still greatly enjoying it! I beat the water temple and now ghost Sidon follows me everywhere which is cute, and I’ve enjoyed seeing the memories play out. I wish it was a bit easier to make money given how much I spend, but maybe that’ll change once I do more story stuff or spend more time in the Abyss, we’ll see. 

- Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (Movie) - I’m surprised with how much I enjoyed this, given how little I’ve heard about it. It’s a really cute and fun little found family story in a classic fantasy world. The movie is accessible to any audience (As my parents loved it with no knowledge of DnD), but you can tell that the creators had a lot of love for the game in how the characters and dynamics are depicted. I love that the two main characters are a completely platonic male female pair who are best friends and raise a child together without any hint of romance? Incredible. I love how there’s a character with huge “OP NPC the DM created for lore purposes who despite the players protests the DM won’t let join the party because that would make the game to easy” vibes. There’s a lot of creative and funny scenes, and while I wish there were more explicitly queer characters, it’s nice to see familiar DnD conventions in a well-made product. I would love if they made more of these and would recommend it to basically anyone as a fun family film. 

- Stalker (Movie) - My dad wanted to watch this old indie Russian film after reading an article about it being a formative sci fi film, so we watched it and. well. It certainly was a film. I will give it credit in that the idea of a location that miraculously grants ones deepest desires being portrayed as sinister not due to a monkey’s paw style twisting of how the wish is granted but due to the self-reflective horror of having to face what your deepest desire truly is and what that says about you as a person is pretty rad, but outside of that cool idea this movie was kind of a mess. There were a lot of self indulgent “Auter” style rants on art criticism and faith which honestly just came off as more complaining than anything else, and while I can respect the unique shots they were able to get the majority of the time I was just thinking “Man, it looks like they are straight up filming at an worn out/ abandoned sewage tunnel, it can’t possible be safe to have the actors crawling around in all this rancid water can it?”. Turns out I was even more right than I thought as they were in fact filming on an abandoned nuclear waste facility and just a few years after this film the director, his wife, and several members of the crew died from cancer that was heavily speculated to be the result of the radiation poisoning from filming this movie. Insane. Anyway my main take away from this film is thank god we have OSHA now.

- Kill the Lights (Webcomic) - Read this as a quick self indulgent relaxing one, and I enjoyed it for what it was. I have a soft spot for Skip Beat! style actor-based narratives where you get to see the actors thought process on how to enhance/ play out a scene, so that aspect was fun. Actually, I kind of wish the story was way more about that, I was getting into those scenes and found myself disappointed whenever it switched back to the romance stuff, despite that being the reason I came here in the first place. Aw well, I wouldn’t exactly say this is memorable enough to recommend to anyone outside the BL genre, but I liked the protagonist, side characters, and art. Also, how weird is it that with this, Mo Dao Zu Shi, and End of the Road, there are 3 completely unrelated stories in which an asian man who’s ruffian background made him adept at combat dies young and is then reincarnated into the existing body of a rich twink with a reputation for sleeping around who then runs into an even richer man from their past who turns out to have secretly been harboring a borderline obsessive crush on the protagonist and is now the sole person able to recognize them in their new body? Like, 3 isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened thrice right?

- Heavenly Delusion (Anime) - Genuinely impressed by how often this mystery show will pull the rug out from under you, lulling you into a false sense of security in which you think you have the plot figured out and then hitting you with a reveal that leaves you with more questions than answers - Good work.

- Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies (Video Game) - I think I took a long enough break, I’m ready to finish the Ace Attorney series now. The Dual Destinies DLC case was too long for my liking but at least had decent characters, and I do like both Athena and Blackquill, I wish they didn't have to share time with the previous leads and just got to do their own thing though. 

- Crazy Ex Girlfriend (TV) - How does this show have so many straight up bangers. My Spotify playlist is wrecked now. 

- The S Classes That I Raised (Webcomic) - Some interesting revelations in recent chapters that shed Han Yoohyun’s motivations in a new light. I’ll admit, while I did quite like him as a character, this new information is helping to retroactively fix some of my complaints about his actions towards Han Yoojin in the first timeline, making me like him even more- The brothers are just very cute honestly I love how much they care about each other. Also adding a Yoo Myeongwoo photo here because I miss him. 

Listening to: A bunch of Crazy Ex Girlfriend songs, including After Everything You Made Me Do, A Diagnosis, and Remember That We Suffered, Eat Your Young by Hozier, LosT by Bring Me the Horizon, Let’s Get This Over With by They Might Be Giants, Read Between the Lines and Hey I Don’t Work Here by Tom Cardy, That’s What I Want by Lil Nas X, He Mele No Lilo by Mark Keali’i Ho’omalu, Stalkers Tango and Lent by Autoheart, Across the Spiderverse OST.

hey, I realise this is a. very broad question, but what's hermitcraft actually like? what are the vibes? bc I used to watch mindcrack uhc and I know a few of them ended up doing hermitcraft stuff (beef, for example) but part of the reason I never tried watching dsmp is because it was wayyy too fucking dramatic and emotional for me. so is hermitcraft a little more lighthearted? if so, where should I start? (btw, I know I personally love a good opportunity to ramble abt my current interest, but if this is too much info I'm asking for dw abt it!)

Please don't apologise for giving me an excuse to ramble about hermitcraft! I wish more people would let me loose to infodump so thank you for this! I am so sorry this has become as long as it has and that I took so long to answer lol

The best way I can describe hermitcraft is a chill, fun vanilla server in which the hermits collab together on and build just the most ridiculous things. Just so many big builds. It's super light-hearted and honestly, if you like just pure minecraft gameplay with great creators this is really the best place for it.

Now for a place to start, I would highly recommend the latest season, season 9. Whenever the hermits start a new seed/world they call it a new season, and a new season is to both give the hermits a break from the minecraft grind and allow them to start up again with fresh ideas. There can be callbacks and references to previous seasons as you move forward, but each season tends to be its own self-contained thing so you don't need to watch 1000's of hours of content to "catch up" if you don't want to.

Starting with s9 is great because it’s only been going for a bit over a month so there isn't a tonne of backlog if you want to see if you like the vibe. It has been packed with collaborative events such as the spawn village, secret fools and currently an easter egg hunt is running. S9 has been fantastic so far as all the hermits are at the top of their game and the builds done already are jaw dropping. I made a post with pictures of a few of their "starter bases". Starter bases!

(This is Scar’s starter base...)

In regards to lore like in DSMP, individual hermits may have storylines or themes their season follows and there will be occasionally a server wide event such as the s6 civil war, the s7 mayoral race and uhhh,,, "moon big" in s8. But most of the time hermits will be either working on their major project for the season, whether it be their mega base or somehow breaking minecraft to get 1 billion item drops in their farms.

(Season 8 is an exception here as it was a highly experimental but condensed season which had lore relating to "moon big". It is an incredible season, with many of the hermits sharing bases and all jammed together on a small island, but if you just want plain minecraft gameplay it can be a little jarring. I adored it but I can see how it might not be everyone's cup of tea.) 

If you do end up wanting to watch previous seasons (which I do highly recommend), I would personally start with s7. There is a post on it that expands on this way more than I do, but s7 and s8 are fantastic and can give you some more insight into each hermit, as well as some great content.

Which hermits to watch is a little trickier because there are currently 26 hermits and they all tend to have their own style and vibe. I was writing out all the hermits I'm watch but I'm actually embarrassed how many of them there are lmao

But for the sake of honesty my favourites that I'm watching this season are Gem, Grian, Scar, Zedaph and Beef. (I would also be watching Etho and Mumbo but alas they're on a break right now ;-; they are very missed)

For hermits I would recommend if you were used to the old mindcrackers maybe start with Beef, Bdubs or DocM. If not, Grian or Scar are always fun, as well as maybe Keralis, Tango or False. Check out hermitcraft.com for a full list of all the hermits or let me know what kind of things you like to watch and I can give you specific recs :)

You did mention UHC so if you wanted something a little more self-contained and death game-y then please watch 3rd Life and Last Life. They are short series run by Grian and are full of a bunch of hermits and non-hermits. 3rd Life is around eight episodes and although it is very, very different to hermitcraft, it’s a great way to see a bunch of hermits interacting.  I could write up a whole seperate post on why everyone needs to watch 3rd Life and Last Life but I'll save you from that haha

If you have any other specific questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I can info dump about hermitcraft all day, every day!

[maglors-anion-gap]

Character bingo! You said one character, but I can't resist asking you the Doriath triad after all the thought we put on understanding them - pretty please? 🐍🥺

Of course! Shameless plug for my new fic for medusas-hairband, which sheds some light on the things I say here.

Funnily, celeborn doesn't fit in a lot of these squares, but he is no less blorbo for not winning a bingo ("phrases that only come out of my mouth on tumblr.hell" for 500, please)

Celeborn matches pound for pound galadriel's weird-girl energy and this is why they fuck so severely (they are made for each other; they give other people headaches). hence cryptid and fish love me.

I have a lot of thoughts about both Celeborn and Galadriel because they both have arcs about losing their homes, either by voluntary rejection or or unpreventable destruction. Galadriel rejects her home to cross the ice (but first the key element to it is destroyed), Celeborn rejects his home to follow galadriel east over the mountains (and then his home is destroyed), Galadriel rejects the call to return over the sea because celeborn doesn't want to leave middle earth (and also she wants her own empire, which is a whole other can of worms), celeborn doesn't sail for like, another 1000+ years after her and then gives up his third home in a series of homes to go live with galadriel again, lots and lots of history there. hence angst machine.

gender envy: don't we all love a man who graciously submits to being manhandled???

Galadriel:

feral, autism, and chihuaha: these go hand in hand. I am specifically thinking about her beef with feanor. for the record, he fills these boxes too, and this is why they don't get along. that's maybe a good thing, because if they did, they might have blown up Tirion Mark-Watney-The-Martian style. She wants power, she wants knowledge, she has goals and it only takes her like 6000 years to achieve them but she knows what she wants. This is central to falling into bed with Luthien - power appeals to her, and if she can't be Luthien then she's more than happy to let Luthien [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] her. I am not personally sold on the autism tm square just because i'm not autistic and i have some reservations about making that the new Funny Man du Jour neurotype, but I am neurodivergent and that was as close as I could get.

closely related: the "adult in the room" is only half filled in because she's only sometimes the adult in the room, even if she thinks she is. related to "beloved, derogatory" because this is absolutely the energy I had in elementary school. On second thoughts, I should have filled in the "relate to them too much" square. not me outing myself as anal retentive ffff.

Fish love me, women (and the men of the riddermark) fear me: see celeborn.

gender envy: nerwen?? hello? this is not supposed to make me think trans thoughts? Also: wanting to be Luthien is still very gender even when I'm writing them both as cis women because it's about Themes. I'm allowed a little leeway to make characters upset about the people they turn into icons and then can't mimic perfectly... :(

Luthien:

The comments about Weird Girls Celeborn and Galadriel apply to Luthien as well.

Ummm I know tolkien writes luthien as being like, angelic or w/e, but I do maintain that she had issues relating to her parents, the people around her, and herself. I know it's a staple of the romantic epic to have love at first sight, but I genuinely think she fell in love with beren because he didn't have any expectations or preconceived notions about her. She really was willing to do the equivalent of dropping out of med school to become a beach bum for this guy (the odds of his head game being fantastic are excellent, btw - the one thing I think it would be really fun(ny) to write is a spinoff of the doriath ot3 fic for their meeting and like, galadriel meeting beren. I don't think she would know what to do with him fr).

Luthien needs therapy because of her parents. Not that I think they were bad parents, but rather that at a point kids become adults and you have to stop sticking your nose in their business. Thingol really misses the mark when he uses his daughter as a political tool. I'm wrapping the best and worst parts of both my parents up in this buy, aren't I?

Luthien is also the only person to escape the tragedy of the silmarillion, which is why she's in the wrong genre.

hiiiii 💫 content creator appreciation!! list five favourite sets/gifs/creations/graphics/art things/etc. you've made and send this ask to five other content creators!

hiiiii 💫 right back at you, you lovely hooman! tysm for thinking of me bestie!? *hugs you* and what a fantastic creator ask game btw! (we all love talking about our work, even if we pretend vehemently not too eheheh).

okies, seeing as this ask is from a (tip-top, go follow) TEEN WOLF blog, imma start with some sterek stuff...

1. YOU NEED ME TO SURVIVE. This piece of artwork is still my favourite stiles/derek piece and, imo, one of my best pieces in general. the amount of times i've tried to recreate... whatever it is i captured... yeah, no! seems to be a one off lol. but i strive! maybe one day i'll do something i like better :)

2. DRAW YOUR SWORDS is probably the personal favourite of my sterek fics. it doesn't have the most kudos/hits etc and certainly isn't a groundbreaking piece of writing, but i just... like it. it's an under 10k one-shot getting together fic w lots of UST which is then resolved. it has lots of feels. like, lots. look, it's basically emo porn and i like emo porn, okay? and i like them in this (sti and der-bear kinda wrote it really, not me).

3. MAGIC IS MAGIC IS MAGIC is maybe my favourite piece from my (quite extensive!) sterek poetry collection. listen, there's a few bloody wonderful people on here who seem to appreciate my humble attempts at verse AND I LOVE THEM LIKE I LOVE BREATHING... but generally speaking, my poetry doesn't really get much attention, which is fine; i adore writing poetry and will continue to pour out my thoughts into stanzas regardless. so, regardless of that, i love this piece. it's definitely not my best work but it's a derek POV almost stream of consciousness that kinda rhymes a bit and I just really, really enjoyed writing it and really, really enjoy reading it back, when i remember it's existence, lol.

and now some other stuff:

4. LAZARUS RISING is a destiel/spn quite recent piece of mine i really like. it's based on s04e01, same title, and it's one of those pieces where i set out to achieve something... and DID! as in, in turned out (pretty much, it's almost never exactly, you know?) the way i wanted it to.

5. BEAUTY & THE BEAST is my last choice. it's something new and us creators tend to like the new stuff we've made (until the next piece!). it's pynch art, my magical bois adam parrish and ronan lynch from the raven cycle/dreamers trilogy book series. i love using colour in my art... but also adore a monochromatic piece! i love love love the styles of artists like AUBREY BEARDSLEY and HARRY CLARKE and always try to capture just a little of the atmosphere they create (try being the operative word there) when i make black and white pieces, while still making the piece my own.

asdfhjkljjjjsksk i thoroughly enjoyed this! a hundred thousand thank yous for giving me the opportunity to show off @ohhalefire!!! imma get on sending this to some other content creators! <333
