I loved your tags in the post about Joel and Ellie and saving the world! I think you're very right. It's not about the love for a child, but in general a love for a person. For a brother. For a husband. You name it. I would do the same for my wife because there is nothing more important than her, regardless of whether or not the cure would have worked. Do you think you would do the same for the people you love?

I, like Joel, am not a hero. I’m a person who largely only gets by BECAUSE I have people I love, who love me, to keep the world from feeling utterly bleak. So, uh. If it came down to the world or my wife? The world or my younger sibling? Yeah. I get his choice.

By the way, a lot of readers tend to be surprised about it whenever I talk about it so here's another post to say that independent projects literally live and die by their audience's enthusiasm!! Even if YOU can't support something financially, spreading the word or making fan stuff to create a cool space for other folks to hang out in and engage with the work is just as important! My own comic was going to end this December without funding, and the only reason we've made as much progress as we have towards the goal was because my readers made such an effort to help it find the support it needs.

Indie creators are on our own out here, the only thing that can help us is the audience!! Every share or comment helps even if you think it doesn't!! Literally just existing in a tag so it's not totally dead when someone else goes looking is contributing something really significant to the projects you love, please don't forget how much power you hold as a Reader Of Things.

trying to save someone whose throat has been cut is such a fantastic catch-22 of helplessness honestly. you either do nothing and watch them bleed out because of your inaction, or attempt to staunch the bleeding by putting pressure on the wound and watch them asphyxiate with your hands around their neck. either way they'll drown, and your only choice is whether you're going to watch it happen, or help to push them under.

i might rework saga's appearance (and therefore backstory) a tiny bit bc honestly i never actually worked out why she looks a lil weird and thinking on it, it looks a little silly and is hard to convey through art

but i also have no idea what i'd do otherwise. should i lean in and make her be half-elemental? give her like actual rock formations? idk. that might be hard to draw too 😭

i kinda wish i'd just made her like, a normal goliath but i was going through a Phrase where every character had to be Weird bc i was desperate to not hate every character i made. tbh i think going to far out of the box made it a little difficult to come up w a solid idea of who they were which is what was making me dislike them. it took me FOREVER to like saga bc i focused on "ooo she has this mysterious backstory that even i don't know!" but that's. so hard to play lmao

luckily it's been so long since we've played AND idk if anyone actually like. remembers that she's a little weird lookin' so i could probably change it without a fuss.

i just want you to know that i have to do some analysis of "for sale: baby shoes, never worn" for an english assignment and that joke you made one time on a stream about the shoes never being worn because it was an unexpectedly massive baby has been in the back of my mind the entire time. thank you

I remember! "For sale: baby shoes, never worn. Massive baby."

Always astounds me Hemingway is held up as such a great writer when the man didn't even realise adding these two simple words would make his story cool and happy and kinda funny (cause of the inclusion of a huge baby) instead of it being, like, super sad. Absolute rookie move imo.

AOS Kirk, drunk: Hey Uhura... Spock takes good care of you, yeah? He treats you right?

Uhura, who isn't dating Spock anymore but does Not want to flirt with Jim Kirk: Yes. He does.

Kirk, wistfully: I'll bet he does. He seems like the type to really know how to treat a person. He's caring, y'know? You're lucky. Lucky. *he trails off into drunken mumbling*

Uhura, who is rapidly coming to a realization: ???

Family of Distinguished People.

So like what if, the Fenton family is just a family full of heroes, villains, and vigilantes. like.. just imagine a long line of people that had or has contributed to the world somehow. Like the Fenton parents as Supervillains, Jazz as a Vigilante, Danny as Hero. Dani just decides to travel not too interested, but does help with her family if needed, Dan does the same thing.

BUT WHAT IF joker is actually a close relative of the Fenton Family (ex. Uncle, Cousin,Family Friend) and like he's just there all happy with his (found)family during family reunions, birthdays and shit.

And the batfam are just like so confused and stressed to why the joker goes missing once a month.

While Joker is literally having a game of Monopoly with the elementary kids at amity park (the kids couldn't bother, they've saw scarier things they handled scarier things) cue Joker giving the kids a hundred dollars because he lost.

This is just one of my what if prompts, that i got locked up in a vault. Might delete this later who knows.

Sorry, but we’re burying your girlfriend alive. Yeah, she decided that the laws of Zeus take precedence over the laws of the state. Your father’s trapping her in a cave in punishment for giving her brother a burial. I mean, you can try to talk him out of it, but good luck. So sorry.
