that shitty thing some people do where they compliment something about you, only to take it back and reveal that it was meant to be a joke at your expense when you sincerely thank them for it, used to bother me until i realised that you can just. keep it. refuse to hand that power back to them. they are never prepared to deal with this.

#🐉#i sometimes get hit with this 'you poor deluded naive little idiot. you actually thought someone could admire your pathetic ass' routine #usually for the slightly eccentric way i dress. sometimes for the earnest and honest way i act.#but nobody ever knows what to do when i just keep responding to their attempts at mocking me with complete sincerity #someone once asked me where i got my outfit so they could give it a try themselves in a very obvious 'i am making fun of you #by implying how ridiculous i would look if i dressed like you' way and i just started suggesting how he could #put an outfit like mine together completely straight faced. and he quickly realised hed tried the wrong door.

Turtle Takedown Teamwork.

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #lan wangji #tulu xuanwu #Something about changing the action sequence to something gentle is hilarious to me.#The lesson here is “Be nice to turtles. They are gentle creatures. And many are very endangered.”#don't get me wrong here; I love this scene a lot. LWJ's string technique is one of my favoyrite things.#We do get a fair amount of LWJ fighting but I always loved how the theme of strings comes into play.#There is actually a lot to unpack with LWJ being associate with 'strings'.#The musicianship: Of dedication and rigor in one's practice.#The tension between following along a path or composing your own way forwards (playing what has been written vs composing)#A string is a tightly coiled/taunt entity; The same tension that makes it sing so beautifully can be it's downfall if pushed too hard.#And as a non-musical string - something that binds. Be it to his sect and family or how he binds his fate to WWX -#LWJ cannot exist without his binds. It is not something which ties him down though. It keeps him together.#And he himself *is* a bind. He 'ties wwx down' in ways that are initially negatively viewed ('come to gusu' - feels like: come be trapped)#But later it is shown how (despite being introduced as a free spirit) WWX truly wants to be bound to something and someone.#Marriage is a bind he wants. He wants to be tied and grounded by LWJ.#It's starting to sound like innuendo. Let's call his fondness for being literally tied up smart thematic writing.#Finally. Sex scenes that are important to the plot and characters

When I saw you making For the Spirits art I was so excited, wow, one of my favourite artists is reading this too, how nice!! Then I realised you’re actually the author and I just want to ask, how?? Are you so talented???? I love this fic and I love your art so so much, thank you for sharing it all with us. Can’t wait for the next update!!

Ah, thank you! This is literally so sweet! For the Spirits (adding a link for the curious folks out there!) is my love child. This project owns my heart and soul, and it's truly so rewarding that you like it! I want to sketch so many different scenes, really, but I'm doing my best to give you some quality artwork of my favorite moments in the story. It's a slow process.

As for next chapter—soon! I'm working on some sketches for this particular scene, and I am so excited to share it with everyone! Things start to pick up from here... But, for now, have a (very little) sneak peek ❤️

Zuko stood at the end of the world, surrounded by miles of snow and the resounding echo of his own shallow breaths. He took everything in, closed his eyes to receive Agni’s light, and howled.

Something howled back, and he smiled.

#dema answers #atla #avatar the last airbender #zuko #atla fanart #prince zuko #atla art #atla fic #atla fanfic #new gods au #for the spirits #spirit touched zuko #atla zuko #the painted lady #Izumi of Jang Hui #lu ten atla #lu ten #Royal Guard Ming #atla ming #Ghost Lu Ten #*insert creepy noises*#Isn't it fun how Lu Ten doesn't really look like a ghost at all?#In ATLA spirits (in terms of soul projection or whatever that's called) are these shiny blue semi-transparent souls...#But that's not really how they work in FTS. A HUGE part of Zuko's struggle with his “gift” comes from his inability to...#...distinguish spirits and ghosts from living humans. At least at first. He's much better at it now.#But I digress #He's experiencing The Terrors and I love him for it #Putting this story together and bringing to life is so important to me! I always wonder how you guys will receive FTS.#Thank you so much for all the love #As for the story itself... Keep an eye out for next chapter. That little bit I shared is actually quite important 👀

it's hell on earth to be heavenly them's the breaks, they don't come gently

#daniel ricciardo #dr3 #went on a hike the sunday after the official announcement and listened to this song on repeat for probably 3 of the 8 miles #POV: me in the middle of the woods telling myself to get it together #while crying about a 35 year old millionaire before I end up passing someone on the trail and they call the police on me #so song is about how female stars are treated overtime and when they first arrive they're praised for being authentic and refreshin #but once the shine wears off and they're a little older and reveal imperfections or they struggle they become a target for ridicule #and then they're discarded for the next new thing in town and the cycle keeps repeating itself forever #which to me so closely mirrors daniel's trajectory in F1 in the eyes of the media #but also when you take the lyrics at face value they are just so daniel...#the f1 ecosystem and more specifically the redbull “family” are fake as hell #and yet daniel is one of their most genuine products who actually can't be easily reproduced (but by god they'll try)#he showed a great deal of promise despite coming from a place that really never should've produced a successful f1 driver #because the cards were stacked against him and nobody really thought he would make it #but he did and he gave us 13 brilliant years (and he has SO much more to give and do and succeed at and he will)#but the wheel of time keeps spinning and the cycle continues for the next shiny new toy that they can nurture and then destroy #anyway i'm not totally in love with these gifs but I need to be done w/them and I had to exorcise this demon that was making me sad

es rarepair week 2024 day 1 | AU/future

lil ghostic au of mine!!! yuzuru and the rest of fine are long since trapped souls in an abandoned mansion of which rst come across while looking for shelter during a storm :] it doesnt um. particularly end well

#doodles #duck scribbles #es rarepair week 2024 #midoyuzu #yuzumido #i Was gonna do the stardew au but then it made me kind of sad. actually this is even worse in that aspect but im in a mood #enstars #midori finds his diary of which details the life of and events leading to yuzuru and the rest of the residents' deaths and w it slowly #becomes able to see/interact with (to an extent) yuzurus spectre himself #midori takamine #yuzuru fushimi #ghostswere initially rather aggressively hospitable in order to keep lost strangers there to eventually die and become a lost soul like the #but most w time grew to just want to be freed and be able to pass on in peace. more hostile ghosts become vague wisps of what they were bef #ore once theyve lost their tether to humanity but those with a strong will still have more control and effect on their surroundings somewha #yuzuru specifically was determined to maintain the mansion and has for decades and maybe centuries kept it orderly hence the clarity of his #spirit!!! having been one of those hostile spirits himself before has moved on to gently guiding guests away from the more dangerous areas #and assisting them so as to ensure their safe leave #they look for a way to break the curse on the mansion together so as to free all their souls!! unfortunately for midori she fell in love w #someone who has long since died 👍#the lil ballroom scene was a funny thing i dreamed about a while ago actually. i like to think watarus ghost put on some music unprompted #oh and since the rest of rst is also there technically you can expect chiaki is Not having a very good time

#he doesn't want to fight with you ai di, he wants to Kiss🙄💘🥺

Nat Chen as CHEN YI KISEKI: DEAR TO ME (2023)

#kiseki: dear to me #kisekiedit #kdtm #kiseki dear to me #chen yi x ai di #ai di x chen yi #nat chen #chen bowen #louis chiang #chiang tien #jiang dian #userspring #uservid #userrain #userspicy #userjjessi #*cajedit #*gif #okay i made this specifically for the 3rd gif bc chen yi's expressions are making me giggle nonstop i was doubled over in tears last night #HE JUST WANTS TO KISS!! AI DI HE LOVES YOU LET HIM HIT IJDKSKG #okay real talk though the fact that he actually gives ai di space 90% of the time. lets him hang out at the bar #like he isnt following him around or constantly dogging him about giving him an answer not does he ever rly ACCUSE ai di of anything #he uses the zhang teng excuse to keep ai di from avoiding him but he doesnt try to keep him where he can see him constantly.#he lets ai di do his own thing and just spends time connecting the dots during the moments ai di comes back of his OWN VOLITION #& he slowly puts together what ai di is refusing to admit and makes his own intentions known without putting them in words either #besides stating his observations (& watching ai di react). Every interaction between them when ai di gets out of prison is like that #gifs 1&2 vs 4&5... letting ai di pull away because he doesnt know whats going on vs pulling him back both to say hey we arent done-#& say im still here FOR YOU - to see how ai di reacts being so close to chen yi after finding him hugging his jacket in his sleep #and then once hes Figured It Out he still keeps the space!! sends gifts... he only Acts when ai di comes back to him himself!!!!#and this time he's READY. and a simp. like. PLS the last 2 gifs..........dude. he wants to kiss so bad

pygmalion and galatea for aroace people

you should tell your friends what I look like, riz gukgak.

#fantasy high #fantasy high sophomore year #fhsy #riz gukgak #baron from the baronies #fh class quangle #class swap babeyy! bard!riz that's whats goin on!#I really need tags for these now I think lmao #ask to tag #I feel like this should be tagged something. but I dont know what #in my brain after the initial kidnapping class swap baron's thing is every time riz keeps his story abt them up in front of his friends #they get a little bit closer. they send him pictures of where they supposedly are n stuff #theres a scene in my brain only of kristen and riz on top of the van and kristen is like everything kinda sucks rn can u tell me abt baron #cause what you guys have is so nice and beautiful. and riz almost doesn't but he ultimately can't deny kristen a little peace #lmao I feel like dipping into baron stuff with the class swap is like showing my whole ass online again I just. I'm a #horror person before all else... I cant stop myself. canon baron is Great and Cool but that is kind of the thing. for a horror thing theyre #Too Cool. I think cool is kind of the neutralizer of scary. when a monster is a certain amount of cool it overrides the scary #and now u just have a Cool Monster #its so fucked for bard!riz this year bc he doesn't have an office (he's mooching off the school wifi from the AV club room lol)#so there's no buffer between adventure and home life. so baron just shows up in the strongtower apartment lmao #sophomore year bard!riz looks like a slasher protag so I just leaned into it I guess. he gets a mr. x if mr. x is made up by leon kennedy #well. its worse actually. they can show up where he is at any moment theyve proven this. but they dont #they choose to punish him slowly as he lies to his friends instead. baron is mr. x if mr. x is made up by leon and also a bitch #I think its gonna pop up if class swap baron ever speaks in a comic I do but their voice comes from like. inside their hollow face #it sounds like it's a lot deeper in there than that skull should be #tbh what I have rn is kinda like a bag of loose pieces that Can fit together into something great but I dont have the energy to #really sit down with them yet lol. Im doing this inbetween other things #it comes or it doesn't! it's fine. funny how today's bad comic day also. I wont say this is for bad comic day bc all my comics are #flawless and beautiful and perfect and awesome and beautiful and the best #but u should. if u havent drawn a comic today or at all ever u should draw a comic

me: *seeing people yell about how they did Glintshore & Percy's death in the show*

also me: ..................anyway

#maybe its because its been fuck knows how many years since i watched 90% of c1 #but i actually find the way they're changing things up super fascinating #i have questions to be sure and i think they're all having so much fun watching people go THEY'RE NOT GONNA PERMAKILL PERCY ??#(they're obviously not going to leave percy dead)#but because so many things have been folded on top of each other to keep the pace in this several hundred hour campaign adaptation #idk! i just think it's neat! obviously we're not done with ripley yet so we'll see what happens there #also people being like “i didnt need a sad backstory for ripley” like that wasn't the most obvious vehicle to introduce the assembly #a lot of these scenes they're adding in or folding together are doing a LOT of work #the storytelling action economy is honestly astounding #like don't get me wrong i get why people are weirded out by it (i am too! It's strange!) BUT it's not being done carelessly #some of you lot just want everything done 1:1 when they simply do not have the time to be doing that #i think i might do a full write up of how impressive some of this is when the season ends bc it really is a mammoth task they've had #the legend of vox machina #tlovm #legend of vox machina #critical role #c1 #vox machina #lvm spoilers #tlovm spoilers #edit: to be very clear. i have been here since the very beginning. don't fuck with me lmao

They made hyoga look so much cooler in the anime hes just standing there , in the manga theyre all dripping wet and bedraggled and senku is dying as usual

#Dr stone #isnt it cute that he was holding onto tsukasa for dear life for that whole sequence .....#after hearing his name called so weakly im sure he would not have let go of tsukasa come hell or high water ... he was covering his wound #with such a shaky hand like he was so fucking stressed out but he couldnt let tsukasa be swept away from him he had to keep both their head #afloat the whole time they were fighting against the current and tsukasa is also twice his size and complete dead weight #ALSO HANG ON WAIT I JUST REALISED SOMETHING #HYOGA... wanted to get senku alone to talk to him but he attacked tsuaksa ... and when hyoga wanted to hit tsukasa he attacked mirai #thats scary because he immediately identified that theyre ride or die together ... hyoga is the original tsukasen shipper #hes like oh you guys love each other ? Well that makes it easier for me #also this was the first time i noticed he wears short shorts and leather thigh high boots. omg slay queen where did you get your boots !#they wanted to make him a classic withdrawn coolguy with a samurai-esque work ethic but actually hes mega camp and a sweety (killed someone

genuinely find it insufferable when ppl conflate any minority receiving the same dark attributes that any other dimensional character could get (god forbid any are written to be a villain or antagonist), especially when it is written as largely informed by their experiences in their society to highlight flaws in the dehumanization faced by these groups, with “this is a stereotype!!” and “we are being told disabled ppl are evil bc they are disabled!” i think u guys might just be uncomfortable with these underrepresented groups being written as human beings affected by their experiences and offered the same level of complexity and intrigue and diversity of roles that everybody else gets regularly

#anyways asoiaf they could never make me hate u #tyrion lannister especially u will always be everything #an actually good character is gonna be better rep than whatever moralizing bullshit u all keep implying u want #always grouping together trends instead of looking at what a story is doing lol
