Recentish adventures in gay vampire movies:
THE VAMPIRE NEXT DOOR (2024): More properly a bisexual vampire movie (eventually, if you're patient), this is a dumb low-budget comedy about a 20-something dweeb, Cameron (Alex Matthews), who's persuaded to act as chauffeur/getaway driver for his hot new next-door neighbor Victoria (Jessica Ferguson) while she does some vampire murders around town. Meanwhile, Cameron is secretly in love with his hot blond bestie Diane (Bella Chadwick), for whom hot himbo Martin (Andrew Larkin) wants Cameron to do the Cyrano de Bergerac thing. An underwhelming throwback to the dopey (PG-rated) teen sex comedies of the '80s (with ONCE BITTEN an obvious comparison), the movie spends so much energy on the romcom stuff that it takes forever for the vampire stuff to come into focus, and, as in many bad '80s comedies, an awful lot of the plot hinges on Cameron being an "innocent" Peeping Tom. Sort of amiable despite having no real redeeming virtues, but it's weighed down by Alex Matthews, whose character is unsympathetic and whose head-lolling performance suggests that he's recently been hit with a tranquilizer dart.
BIT (2020): MEAN GIRLS meets THE LOST BOYS, featuring a teenage trans girl from Oregon, Laurel (Nicole Maines), who comes to L.A. to spend the summer with her brother (James Paxton) and falls in with a clique of gay vampire girls led by the sardonic Duke (Diana Hopper). Funny and stylish, it suffers from trying to cram at least five hours' worth of plot into 90-ish minutes of screen time. Many of the component pieces are interesting and fun, but as a whole, the movie feels jumbled and unresolved: Various subplots and secondary characters go nowhere; the other vampires (Zolee Griggs, Char Diaz, and Friday Chamberlain) get hardly any character development — Griggs' character Izzy is there mostly as Laurel's love interest, and Diaz and Chamberlain barely have any lines; and Laurel remains curiously underdeveloped, reducing her to a fairly generic teen movie protagonist. Maines is an appealing screen presence, but she can't compete with Diana Hopper, whose commandingly bitchy performance as Duke is the centerpiece of the movie. There's a lot to like about BIT, but it might have worked better as a TV series, giving the characters and story more room to breathe.
THERESA & ALLISON (2019): Extremely low-budget cinema verité horror comedy-drama about gay college girl Theresa (Arielle Hope), transformed into a vampire after a disastrous one-night stand, as she struggles to navigate her new vampiric existence while nursing a crush on a somewhat older vampire, Allison (Sarah Schoofs) — who is totally, definitely (not) broken up with her obnoxious boyfriend Tony (Charles D. Lincoln, who also wrote the script), who now won't leave Theresa alone. The production values are modest and the acting is uneven, but this is a much more cohesive movie than the other two, with far and away the most intelligent script and many inventive ideas (like the fact that New York City has social services for vampires, although like most urban social services, they're underfunded and totally inadequate). Its biggest strength is the way the story builds its vampire-related elements around familiar real-world gay girl travails, which is sometimes very funny as well as horrifying. The caveat is that this is still definitely a horror movie, and goes some quite dark places (requiring CWs for suicide and sexual violence, beyond the usual for vampire stories), with an ambiguous but rather harrowing ending.

I'd love to know about "Call to Arms" for the WIP round up. FC5 and CoD my beloveds...
Ah yes! I'd love to talk about the Call To Arms duology!
Since there were two versions of CODMW, I had been stuck on doing either the original version or the reboot. Then I remembered, "I'm a fanfic writer, I can have BOTH!" And that's how I ultimately decided to combine both, so that's going to be fun to work out.
Call To Arms is a Call Of Duty Modern Warfare fic which acts as an origin story for Nadi Sinclair, John Seed's second-in-command in my FC5 fics, explaining why Nadi is so willing to sell her soul to John and Eden's Gate and devote herself to their ideals despite the red flags.
Call To Arms is split in two (due to being a duology); the first fic focuses on the first Modern Warfare and setting up the second, acting as a prologue of sorts, while the second fic focuses on both Modern Warfare 2 & 3, where things start taking a turn for the worst. I'll be sticking with the original's timeline (mostly anyway), as the reboot's timeline just doesn't work for Silva's Hope.
Nadi Sinclair is an Iranian-Frenchwoman who joined the French army and eventually got recruited into SAS operations, specifically the 22nd SAS Regiment, due to her exceptional sharpshooting skills, and acts as designated marksman on good days and sniper on bad days. Despite the work she does, she still retains an optimistic and cheerful demeanor, earning her the nickname "Quokka". She's joined alongside one other recruit; Sergeant John "Soap" MacTavish, and are both mentored by SAS Captain John Price and Sergeant Kyle "Gaz" Garrick. The dynamics I'm going for in this group is that Nadi and Soap have this vitriolic sibling energy between them, and are considered the "younger" siblings (being in their early and mid 20s), Gaz the well-behaved one, and Price acting as the big brother everyone looks up to even when he commits the occasional war crime.
There's also Kate Laswell who's the mother hen that covers their asses when they do stupid shit, and checks in on them from time to time to make sure they're all okay. Farah and Alex are the favorite long-distant cousins they wish they got to see more of (with Hadir as the least favorite) and Nikolai is the uncle whose been to prison more than once but does get them out of trouble so he gets a pass, and Griggs is just a stand-up guy who showed up sopping wet like a kitten lost in the rain so they kind of adopted him.
Shepherd also appears a little earlier than he does in both canons (though I'm going for the original MW2 Shepherd as I despise the reboot version) who's either the most impressed dad in the world or the most disappointed. Graves and Valeria are the bad kids who the team want to keep Nadi far away from.
Ghost, Roach, Alejandro, Yuri, and all the others will be introduced in the second fic but while I don't have much to share about their relationship with Nadi now (except that Ghost kind of scares her even though he would absolutely kill anyone who bothered her and help hide the body), I must make this adamantly clear. I do not have any romance at all for this duology, the focus is more on brotherhood/sisterhood. The most you'll get is playful flirting, whatever Alejandro and Valeria got going on, and discussions of Nadi's obvious poor tastes in men and women at her expense (which may explain her crush on a certain Seed brother...).
Makarov is still his horrible self and no one wants him around.
I'm still trying to get things together for this one, I'll need to go on the hunt for the original games (it's... been a while) and replay the reboots (I don't have the third one and while I'm hesitant to get it from what I've heard, I'll do it just for the fic).
Anyway, hope you enjoyed.

For the animation I used a tutorial on animating in clip studio paint by Andrea Joan Cabral on tumblr @ayjaycabral which was SO helpful and also practiced with exercises from the youtube channel by Alex Grigg, Animation for Anyone which I totally recommend checking out if you want to animate but don't know how to start (like me)

Girl omg I am IN ABSOLUTE LOVE with your animatics- I’dmarrythemifIcould- can I ask what program do you use for animatics? And do you have any tips on making animatics (especially abt character and camera movement) or any sneak peaks into your process? I’ve been wanting to dip my toes into trying it out but I’m not quite sure where to begin.
I have Clip Studio Paint EX, but I’m still trying to figure out the animation features etc and, again, I wanna try my hand at making animatics, that’s why I’m asking :3
Okay... For almost all animatics I use Toon Boom Harmony Premium (it has a lot of stuff and it's comfortable for me) Also sometimes I use Krita and Clip Studio Paint (I used this video to understand main features of this program (Little fact, I used Clip Studio to animate "Yellow light" for the first time). Lately started animating in Procreate too, pretty funny and comfortable one About tips... I had one about smoother shifts between frames (but for some reason I can't find it? Even with the fact that I did put a special tag on it) and I don't know what exactly you need about other tips. Almost everything I make intuitively, I kinda see where to move camera too make right effect? But I can tell one most useful tip, if you really wanna animate, try to imagine how it will move in your head, use references (just watch video and copy on paper on program moves from there), look how things in your life moves, it will slowly stuck in your head if you will be stubborn enough. Because, I will be honest, I didn't learn any animation basics but over time, as I look at video lessons, I understand tha I do know them (but I think it will be important to know them theoretically, not only intuitively, if you will work with other people, because they help to specify how it should be animated (key frames, inbetweens, timing and other things) Artists which lessons I use to watch from time to time or I just love their way of animating: Toniko Pantoja, Alex Grigg // Animation for Anyone, GOBELINS Paris, ToastyGlow, pollovy, -岂几Kai-, Neal Illustrator, SAD-ist, Casserole :D, WolfyTheWitch, Rodrigo Sousa, Amelia B (There are more, but these are the first ones I always remember, and of course a lot of cartoons)
About wips...... I have a lot... "I bet my life", "Finale" Leo's pov, "Earth" and others in queue... I almost completed key frames for "Agnes" animatic (Full song, about 4 minutes? I'm making my dream live over here he-he-he), but I am so crazy about sending wips so that I created my little rabbit hole (to hide from Cass *giggle*) to stop sending them on tumblr because I want to make full emotional experience from completed work... It's not so cool if you already experienced first emotions from this when you could experience the whole thing biting your knees
I hope something from there was helpful, don't rush, try to understand how it all works firstly, try to understand what kind of animatic you want to make and what you want to show and make it~~~~ You will love it when you'll see what you're able to create~~~

I seem to have disappeared for a while, for that I’m sorry, my autism brain decided to focus on 90 other things all at once and not include Tumblr in that list 😭
As an apology, I’m gonna post all the teams for the Pokémon AU I made ages ago. I have been working on it, I promise, and art WILL be dropping soon (soon being whenever I get finished)
Anyways 😋
Roach (gym leader 1 (grass)): Oddish, Eldegloss
Gaz (gym leader 2 (water)): Wingull, Quagsire, Drednaw
Alex (gym leader 3 (fire)): Arcanine, Centiscorch, Salandit
Soap (gym leader 4 (electric)): Boltund, Galantula, Jolteon, Toxtricity
Hadir (gym leader 5 (psychic)): Rapidash, Xatu, Bronzong, Swoobat
Farah (gym leader 6 (ground)): Dugtrio, Mudsdale, Silicobra, Gastrodon
Alejandro (gym leader 7 (fighting)): Lucario, Machamp, Bewear, Throh
Ghost (gym leader 8 (Ghost (not surprising there))): Dusclops, Yamask, Drifblim, Polteageist
Nikolai (Elite Four 1 (flying)): Altaria, Noivern, Mantrine, Noctowl, Mandibuzz
Griggs (Elite Four 2 (Steel)): Perrserker, Mawile, Durant, Excadrill, Aegislash (specifically blade form)
Price (Elite Four 3 (Normal)): Drampa, Dubwool, Braviary, Diggersby, Type: Null (I have a plan for how he got the Type: Null which will be a later post)
Laswell (Elite Four 4 (Ice)): Glaceon, Arctovish, Frosmoth, Froslass, Mr. Mime (Galar form)
General Shepherd (Champion (Dragon)): Dragapult, Haxorus, Hydreigon, Kommo-o, Duraludon, Turtonator
Graves + The Shadows (Rivals? Basically Team Yell (Dark)): Zigzagoon (Galar form), Liepard, Bisharp, Like any other dark type that fits them (Graves also has a Mimikyu that he bought off an illegal Pokémon trade or something)
Ramirez (also a rival? Basically Hop (has no specific type)): Mareanie / Toxapex, Ninjask, Vulpix / Ninetales, also Joltik / Tarantula
Feel free to use this for whatever and if there are any Pokémon you think any would specifically have tell me and I’ll see what I think
Eat up pookies ❤️❤️

Okay I had to make CoD operators favorite special lethal/tactical
Tumblr media
Hold on I wanna explain my reasoning
Kazimir: Bale likes that he can just throw it out and leave it, it's fast and efficient. Price likes it because it's like a nuke. Gaz thinks it's cool and obsess with it. Alex thinks it's neat and really useful. I don't think he would use that much but he still likes it. Griggs thinks it's cool and the pulling effect can be useful (Also because he has to carry mine:)). Sparks I don't know, I just felt like since he's in the moutains he would like kazimirs.
Monkey Bomb: They think that is the cutest guy in the world. They are laughing and giggling about them all the time. Will find any excuse to use it.
Aether blade: They are also a hive mind and all like how it kills multiple things at once, but not too crazy like the Kazimir or Monkey bomb. Plus the blade coming back to them is awesome. (Lerch is gonna do trick with it and end up hurting himself or someone else)
Doesn't use that shit: Zane just doesn't want to mess with it, it honestly kinda of scares him. Nikto is also kinda of scared of it, plus it makes him like nervous. He can be persuaded to use them though. This shit freaks Yegor the fuck out, he is number hater of this special equipment. Also he's just a classics kinda of guy. Mara just doesn't care for them/see the point, her regular equipment does the job just fine. Otter is also kinda of scared of this shit, but can be persuaded to use them. Mace just doesn't care about them. He'll use them if he's like given them, but he doesn't actively seek them out or anything. Thorne does not like them because he thinks they are too destructive.
