i dont think we can solely blame the authors for poorly written books. yes most of the work is on them but when you read something that just feels awkward as hell or like the author was roaming free doing what they wanted, that's because the editor(s) were asleep at the wheel. when an author wants to go on a tangent and use overwritten metaphors for every single thing they want to describe, the editor's supposed to say "hey dial that back". when an author indents way too many time to for "dramatic effect" an editor is supposed to say dont do that lol. like where are the line editors lmao?
#angel posts#theres a lot that the author ideally would know better than to do#but they cant do everything#and besides when you spend a long time with a work#and you get way too close to it#you just miss shit#happens to everyone!#hence the editors#who are a) fresh eyes and b) keen enough that they can point out things that need fixing#im thinking of a breakdown for fourth wing i watch#by readswithrachel#where the author would Write. Like. This. for drama i guess?#but it was overdone#and didnt flow#which like. editor hello where tf are you#also anachronisms#someone who loves you and wants you to succeed WILL point those out#because that shit breaks immersion so fast lmao#writing is a collaboration etc etc

tiefling jon's first day at the Archives
#id in alt#the magnus archives#tma#magnus archives#elias bouchard#jonathan sims#tma jon#jon tma#jon sims#tma dnd au#tiefling jon#gammijart#tma s4#so this is that comic i was talking about a few weeks ago. with way too many backgrounds and effort#ill say i did enjoy doing the backgrounds a lot and thats worth a whole lot. but also. if this gets no notes i will. cry#anyways. love drawing a correct perspective grid and then fucking it up in favor of something that is wrong but FEELS right <3#also any anachronisms shall be explained by this being a fantasy setting#always difficult to post something that's not a joke. sincerity. yuck#and this does still have some jokes. just less punchy than id usually post. also no jmart or other ships. whoof#i havent done enough with elias. he's such a slimy bastard - v fun to write#he talks a bit more formally here than in canon but tbf he is an elf so /shrug#EDIT: aaaah between panels 4 and 8 i forgot i gave him an ace ring!!

christmas is not a traditional shadowhunter holiday but still gets celebrated in a lot of places bc will and tessa, who both grew up mundane, made a point of bringing that part of their culture into their institute which then made it into shadowhunter culture as a whole.... wessa your impact will forever be felt in the whole world
#also a little funny when you remember tessa & will are canonically bold atheists if only bc they never mention god once in the entire series#despite. you know. being american & welsh-british in the 1870s#(it's just intentional anachronism. i know. but it's fun to look at it this way)#pioneers of making christmas a cultural holiday over a religious one......so ahead of their time <3#personal#tid#tsc#the infernal devices#the shadowhunter chronicles#wessa

ok i know translation of ancient lit is inherently anachronistic / all words’ etymologies carry the history of their passage through time and the existence of that history is what makes them anachronistic to ancient lit / and yet translation exists on the line between possible and impossible / the distance in language and time is what necessitates translation / translation of ancient lit must navigate different forms and strengths of anachronism while being made of anachronism. logically i know all of this. it is just that the etymologies of Some words are toooo new and too Visible in their newness. this post brought to you by me being completely thrown by emily wilson’s translation of the iliad using the word ‘mesmerised’. as in franz mesmer the 18th century physician. like there is an entire anachronistic proper noun in there
#and i would be interested if the anachronism was Doing something??? but it is not#except distracting me. and that could also be interesting. except it is not.#i’m gonna check the greek in a bit but right now im eating lunch and grumpy. hrgh#wiliad#beeps

How many death threats do you think I'd get if I wrote a queer book where the Devil falls in love with Adam from the Garden of Eden when something causes him to Fall from Heaven? And they both have to unlearn their religious trauma? And I retcon the existence of god because I think that's a more interesting take on the concepts of heaven and hell?
#from the desk of anachron#like adam resents him for the garden and lucifer did do that intentionally but regrets the consequences of acting in anger that way#but he also hates that Adam looks down on him for being the Devil#he knows he was prideful in his youth and he knows he didn't really get it#but eons of interaction with human souls will do wonders to make you realize some stuff about yourself#anyway fixing millenia of religious trauma by enjoying sin in moderation to prove good and evil don't actually exist#except as moral judgements we place on ourselves and others

I love fics that send Shen Yuan back to his world but I really want to see more angst on the initial "waking up". Like, imagine if you just spent 15 or so years of your life in another world. You were actually happy, you had friends (unlike in your past life), got over your emotional intimacy problems and found love; just for everything to stop, be gone. I know this happens to some people who were in comas, but i think it would be a little different because it was actually real.
I was listening to Girl Anachronism (great song btw) and just had the very vivid scene of Shen Yuan going through a bit of a mental break after "coming back to life". He's been living in a different time and different world. How would he even readjust to the modern world?
Anyway, here's a sketch of how I think he would be feeling :3
You can tell
From the glass on the floor
And the strings that're breaking
And I keep on breaking more
And it looks like I am shaking
But it's just the temperature
And then again
If it were any colder I could disengage
If I were any older I could act my age
But I don't think that you'd believe me
It's not the way
I'm meant to be
It's just the way
The operation made me
#shen yuan#svsss#angst#Reverse transmigration#girl anachronism#song lyrics#panic attack#how do i tag stuff#Shen Yuan is having so much fun#someone give him a hug#Someone give him his husband back#Even better if airplane is also there#I love when his family is there too#I love Shen family angst#Drawing#digital art#sketch#crappy art

Someone asked why my cat guy was in a bikini, and the answer is: Men and them can wear bikini’s too!
To demonstrate, here’s Lan Wangji and his brunch friend Elle Woods at their weekly summer hangout.
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan wangji#elle woods#not posting the ask for Reasons.#I personally do not and will not wear a bikini but it is very fun and silly to draw my sona in one.#It is also important that I introduce the Regal Legal Lawyer Elle Woods Into pd-mdzs canon.#Planting the seeds now so when she returns…there was some foreshadowing.#Do you guys think lwj would be a brunch person?#I can see wwx drinking 10 am mimosas. Maybe having a runny benny coated in hot sauce.#Lwj could make a good brunch spread. I think that would be the only reason he would attend.#To study. To learn. To immerse himself in the brunch culture. To make a nice brunch for his beloved.#Now…LXC…JGY….the bunchiest kings to ever order a cloud egg at 11am. That is *their* outing.#This is all extremely anachronical and me being a silly jester again. Jingle jingle jingle.

historians in my podcasts repeatedly asserting that medieval conceptions of childhood were vastly different in that teenagers as young as 14 were already given adult responsibilities (especially if they were royalty) if not considered legal adults depending on the time period and this is just feeding my headcanon that yaad and thistle don't see themselves as children
#especially thistle. don't get me wrong he is a kid but neither he nor those around him view him as such#being a member of a different race justifies their treatment of him further in their minds#delgal doesn't view him as a child and maybe that's less him being an idiot and more to do with cultural context#yaad i think has different ideas since a thousand years of thinking might sow new perspectives into one's head#but i think even he doesn't fully grasp that thistle is a Kid kid and it's only started to dawn on him post-dungeon#hell i don't believe yaad views *himself* as a kid but he does struggle with a dysphoric self-perception because of that disconnect#roomba media#dunmeshi#dmposting#melinis#yaad#thistle#thistle dungeon meshi#yaad melini#txt#i guess one should also consider how elven influences shaped the other races' ideas#since dm's anachronisms seem to be a result of those influences#food for thought!
