#The world has gone insane

[our-future-is-up-to-us-2]

Ok but on a serious note, I have so much to analyse/rant about with Jekyll and Hyde like it's so BRILLIANT and for what:

FYI: Only listened to the 1994 Gothic Thriller Album and thus call 'Emma' by 'Lisa' (and will only refer to her as Lisa, thank you very much <3)

ALRIGHT BUT- Take Me As I Am is the most beautiful romance song ever... Like they're swearing to each other and accepting each other and god they're the most beautiful couple ever.

And then: 'give me your hand, give me your heart!' 'swear to me, we'll never part!' THE FACT THAT LISA IS SO LOYAL TO JEKYLL. She is always by his side, she defends him against her own father in His Work And Nothing More and THEN Jekyll is the one to swear about never parting... But he dies anyway IN FRONT OF HER ON THEIR WEDDING DAY. Tragedy tragedy I'm not crying, you are...

Also about His Work And Nothing More... The overlap is so beautiful. Utterson worries about Jekyll and his work/sanity, Sir Danvers questions everything, Lisa defends Jekyll, and then JEKYLL FINALLY CALLS OUT TO LISA... aaaaaaa

Can I just say asw, the steampunk aesthetic in The World Has Gone Insane... It drives ME INSANE. How it works and blends the madness into something as methodical as like- Train tracks and machinery and work which is everything that Henry Jekyll is all about...

Honorary mention to: 'I see the reaper grinning at my door!' being such an iconic and creepy line for Hyde in that song.

I don't really care for Lucy all that much (sorry Lucy stans). I understand her plight and empathise with her but... Getting with Hyde... Or trying to... Just remember that he's a psycho PLS

Also I love how Hyde's evilness is rather subtle until 'Alive' and then you get the full extent of Jekyll's descent into madness + the murders later on and the whole take over situation... Ofc Confrontation is already iconic but now I understand it and it's brilliant... I think that's enough for today but have fun with that <33

Come on, we all know you missed it. That's why I am saying yall might get a full on fanfiction. (I know yall hate me for it.)

But first: Link for the short prompt story.

You don't need to know much, the summary explains enough and the story as well. If you want to know more, go to my Masterpost and search through the DystopiaStricklake!AU.

alright.... SO. since there has been.... a very big influx of people asking for Fake Peppino hugs. i have taken the liberty of making this easier for myself and shoved them all into (mostly) one drawing!! hooray!!!

(aside from 2 that i couldn't fit, and felt like drawing differently. but... you'll see!)

but anyways, i hereby present... THE FAKE PEPPINO HUG PILE!!!

featuring the hug-ees @noodletime (don't worry, he's been given VERY strict rules not to eat you.), @juliatv, @lavenderrvalleyy, @cyanityinsanity101, @yoyosiuwu, @hamsterrodent, and @creat0rstudi0! i hope i drew you all right 🤗😊

.... and now, two more Fakeys for your (hopefully) viewing pleasure!!

for the lovely @thatspecificanomaly, with their "Fake" Brick... i think getting a hug might be a bit too dangerous for them though, Fake seems fairly suspicious...... 👀💧

and then for my friend @abbyroseflame24, because i couldn't figure out where the heck to fit her into the big drawing... so she gets a full-body snuggle instead 🤗

(... phew, that's like 10 asks out of the way now at least 😅)

[stormimur]

hello bello !! i was just wondering, since i've seen you mention them a few times, what does "kvei" mean?

Kvei is shorthand for Kveikur, who is a character of mine from my own personal stories! They're the base for the Y/N for Days Gone By and Cold Front. She's a bit different vs that actual Y/N so it's not impossible to project yourself onto, but admittedly the further I get into the story, the more I wonder how much I can get away with Y/N being so vague lmfao. We shall see, I guess!!

Wish I had more to show at this moment because I do REALLY, REALLY love Kvei as a character because of DGB, but I actually only started to develop her because of DGB so she...has no art or reference atm. I know exactly what she looks like though so it'll be fixed soon for art reasons.

[weewoo911]

My absolute favourite thing about 911 is that the characters go through such ridiculous situations and the mains are so practically unkillable that they’ll reference surviving the most insane shit in front of randoms and then turn to them like:

[mightierthanthecanon]

I like the stories where the villain was the man beside you the whole time. The best villains don't see themselves as evil. They're fighting for a good cause, willing to get their hands dirty.

Jack and Mai's dynamic have 3 sides

#1. Teacher - Student: Jack teaches her the ways of the samurai. She learns how to attack, to defend herself, and to "jump good"

#2. Father - Daughter: He takes care of her as if she was a child of his own. He always gives food, shelter and comfort to the little creature

#3. Besties: Mai is a 8 year old whose life was devoid of any (positive) social interactions and Jack is a 25 year old who spent his whole childhood and teenage years on training to be a warrior. When they're together they just share 1 braincell that goes play

Mai: can we play-

Jack: yes

*proceed to play*

Extra: There have been instances where #2 is inverted. Something happens to Jack and Mai's the one who becomes all motherly and takes care of him 😭❤️

[kuya-hyacinth]

You know what? I'm going to make a Dr. Henriette and Ms. Eleanor alternate universe. Which is a Jekyll and Hyde musical type of thing but instead of the gay men we love, they are lesbian women and Dr. Henriette struggles to be a doctor because of what society used to be before and creates Ms. Eleanor is her alter ego who lift women up by encouraging them and possibly kiss them so that women's rights existed in the 18th century instead happening very lately.

[ameteurchef]

must everything "move the plot forward"? is it not enough to watch a man in the throes of agony for an hour straight?

[pa-rou]

the grumbo resurgence got me publishing on ao3 and shi

[wayward-sherlock]

thinking abt how someone’s gonna die next season but all of the characters have such complex relationships with each other that no matter what it’s going to hurt real fucking bad.
