when they've got interpreting spiderman noir under a specific cultural lens at the function [picture of me going insane]
I cant help myself.. what can i say. And since you've mentioned some research going on behind the scenes.. do you have any fun interpretations? Or even anything fun about the 1800s!
OH HI
Hm. I don't have anything as fun as historical dancing, but I suppose this does give me the excuse (thabk u) to blab about Noir's childishness.
(wow putting this under the cut bc it got longer than I thought it would LMAO)
I think what a lot of people (including Noir's contemporary writers and yes even the spiderverse interpretation) fall for when trying to read Noir's character is the imitation of his idea of what an adult is, that he hides behind. Like Noir's persona is incredibly exaggerated. He's playing pretend. Look here, he's practicing.
A lot of his persona as Noir is imitation! Imitation of his uncle, of Urich, of the violence he's been exposed to. He's running around in his uncle's old uniform. Fundamentally misunderstanding WHY his uncle had been ashamed of it and his role in the war.
And then he goes ahead and steals Urich's alias because it sounds Cool (which is such a teenage thing to do jesus christ).
But like that imitation of The Adult isn't something that's limited to that exaggerated persona that Noir encapsulates. Peter himself is trying So Hard to be grown up and tough and responsible that it loops back around to him being a brat who would try the three guys in a trench coat trick. He even gets beat up for it when trying to defend his aunt. And I mean I've posted about him being a brat.
About how he looks at Urich as a Prime Example of what a strong and knowledgeable adult is (which is part of why he reacts so volatile in response to Urich showing he's not exactly as morally righteous as himself, he's wounded and let down). Whiskey? Whiskey sounds like someone Mature and Cool would drink, I'll have it too. And then proceeds to throw his drink at Osborn and laugh about it. The illusion was broken for me then.
But well it's not broken for everyone. I mean like obviously I poked at the contemporary writers, but I'm more talking about the other characters in the narrative. Mainly Urich and Felicia.
Urich taking Peter under his wing isn't entirely under the motivation to nurture Peter. I think it Becomes that, but he's really envious of that kid. He wants to see him lose that hope that he once had (ruh roh the opposite thing happened, being around the kid made YOU more hopeful Ben. Guess you gotta be good. Hope you don't die now).
Urich really is exposing him to an extremely harsh reality, and taking him places where adults are typically only allowed. He's letting Peter get a glimpse into what it's like, which will eventually enable Noir's tool of violence. All these tests will accumulate into what Peter thinks someone powerful and strong can be and do.
Then his problematic relationship with Felicia (writers I'm malleting you for this). He's clinging to her adulthood and the safety she represents, and he's young but she sees some adult strength in him. I mean she trusts him with the blackmail Urich gave her, which she really. Shouldn't, even if that's what Urich wanted.
Anyway, strength is something she's been consistently drawn to her in her partners. Strength to feel as her own. Even if it's to hers and others' detriment. There's also a part of Peter that's drawn to Felicia because Urich was. He's still honing in the good parts of Urich he wants to be.
I think the one person in the narrative who doesn't fall for it? Is Aunt May. You could argue it's just her being naturally motherly, but for someone who was about to be eaten alive she's pretty frank with Noir. I think she can see that that violence and exaggerated grittiness comes from someone inexperienced and young. Even if she can't consciously recognize the similarities between Noir's persona and Peter's protectiveness of her. I don't think she wants to see that. I actually have a short comic script about that, but it probably will never see the light of day.
Ugh he's like a cat puffing up to scare away a predator. It's fake!!!!! It's all fake!!!!!! He gets intimidated by JJ, he never ties his shoes, gets powers and then immediately guns to beat the shit out of Osborn, sings about the sandman when he's getting his face bashed in, crawls to Felicia all pathetic and sad, and he made a costume to run over roofs at night in.
And it's funny how he's forcing himself to grow up, but also really sad because all the things he's being exposed to is already forcing him to grow up. He's witnessing things no kid should ever see or experience.
Then there's the time period to consider. The aftermath of WWI, being in the midst of the Great Depression, and WWII just around the corner. He's faced incredible hardship and is going to continue to face so much hardship, and he's going to mature faster than he ever should have. It should have made him crash and burn Hard when he became an adult, and to me he still does because I'm ignoring everyone after ewaof LMAO.
As for my research on the 1800s NY that's for my own spider iteration run I'm working on, so not too related to Noir until I reach the 30's :3
Hope that was satisfying!!
#tw grooming#critter talks#asks#the moots#fool!!!!!!#spider man noir#character analysis#abt the research like logically I know the typical new yorker isn't gonna know abt the specificities of the original dutch colony#and intricacies that the boom of industrialization had on lower class communities#but it's less about that and more of digging my hands into the Soul of NY#because NY is so Intertwined with any spider#so I'm starting from the Very beginning and digging my way up. man y'all were a hot mess#it's really fascinating though working my way through documentaries and books. the list is long and the dent I've made is about an 8th ASDF#anyway MAYBE y'all will see spiderman undiscovered one day...ask me abt it again if y'all like miles being a detective w a shoulder demon#for now it's me my 55 of world building slides several character note docs and a to read list of about 20 books long#would like to go to NY citay one day & oogle at the stinky subway draw some storefronts and people watch but thats not in the budget rn#also trying to look for movies n shows that aren't exaggerations of the culture so if anyone has recommendations DO @ me please#wanna do her justice bc I care about her#ALSO FOOL I'M SO SORRY FOR TAKING A DAY TO ANSWER#had to get my thoughts togther

Wait.. you're European? : ( I'm sorry but I can't like your blog anymore. It's obvious you're racist but I was trying to give u the benefit of the doubt. maybe you were a poc or American! Maybe that's why there's no black rep in your art.... or why your asian Lego monkie oc's do Not look Chinese. And I'm not on Tumblr to follow some cishet white girl :P please change
My brother in christ what
#Tam answers#Anon who hurt you#Not only do I have black OCs I also have black moots (maya lala <3) who I support and love to the moon and back#And also have you ever heard of stylization?? This is a fictional character. My lmk OCs aren't real people who need to look realistic-#I'm genuinely so sorry if anyone got the impression that I'm racist. Like I don't want people thinking that because I genuinely don't#Other races are fucking beautiful#Black people? LOVE. Asian people? LOVE. Hispanic people? LOVE. Middle eastern people? LOVE#all y'all are so gorgeous#But can I think that and also be proud to be European/Slavic?? Why do I need to hate my own race because some people who were also white#Did shitty stuff#Can I live not hating my skin color and finding pride in my culture and continent?

Man, it's so disheartening to keep seeing the twins from whatever media you enjoy be shipped. Especially being a twin myself, it's just so discouraging and makes me feel uncomfortable sharing anything related to me and my twin
It just got me sitting like
#i feel betrayed EVERY SINGLE TIME#like i think i find some neet art between the characters#and boom ship#this happened too many times its just not fair#and it doesn’t help that the characters end up not being that popular to begin with#so you scrap for content and you have to suck it in and pretend that you didn't see the same artist do your favourite drawing of them#also do ship art with them#and i know some moots will look at this and take a good guess as to which twins I'm currently referring to#but it aint just them#this happened too many times already#these are just my breaking point bc i actually got unnaturally attached to them#i hate vauge posting but idk if i wanna get into detail about this#i just wanna yell into the void bc it's been eating me up#cake talks#vent

Being a Jason Grace truther is bracing yourself everytime you see videos talking about "unbearably boring character povs" knowing dam well who the comments are going to be talking about and skipping the video all together because of that reason
#I'm just a jason stan y'all 😔🎀#A day in a life of a jason grace lover on any platform#My biggest green flag is that I'm loyal enough to my pookie fictional characters that I skip videos for them if I sense bad comments abt it#it's at times like this where I wish the pjo fandom hadn't gotten so mainstream popular on book tok#bc jason hate is so normalised and glorified there that we truthers can't even go outside the pjo fandom without seeing hate#that it becomes a trend where everyone wants to join in to look cooler and fit in with the majority.#and the very fact that I can sense that the bad comments r going to be about Jason based on a single video says it all tbh#before I used to want like start fights w all of them but they r so dam dumb that I'd rather advocate for pro jason over here tbh#And funnily enough it worked lol I have been told that I changed many ppls perception of Jason's character positively#Also dear followers and moots I'm sorry I've been kinda dead on Tumblr lately#I will respawn with more jason content I swear#pjo#pjo fandom#percy jackson#pjo series#jason grace#pjo hoo#pjo hoo toa#annabeth chase#leo valdez#piper mclean

Since a lot of people are interacting with my ocs/aus as of lately I'ma link the posts to my art requests and interacting with ocs again lol. These links can also be found in my bio and pinned post too. But I've noticed a lot of people who interact with me don't read either of these posts.
Link to interacting with ocs info/rules
Link to art requests rules/info (This post about requests is the most important out of the two. So even if you don't want to read both at least read this one if your gonna make a request)
#mono rambles#dw I'm not directing this at anyone lol. It's just a lot of people don't like the two posts about making requests/interacting#so I assume they haven't read it even though they're sending in requests#and I just feel its relevant to my content lol#like I said not directing it to anyone. and reading those two posts is super simple and its mainly just basic stuff lol#the art request post is the most important one out of the two!!!!#tldr for art requests: say who the ask is for cause I won't know unless you say!!!! I won't be able to do your request!#Have refs linked on a pinned post or something#I'm not going looking for refs I'm lazy and also busy. Your getting free art. The most you could do is make it easy for me to find the refs#Edit: also Idm as much if its my moots making these mistakes. Since I don't feel as nervous to approach them lol. It's just when its people#I don't interact with when I feel nervous about it

'Why is Sakura so much more interesting when paired with anyone besides Sasuke?' hey um maybe you don't like sakura at all and just wanna use her as an oc to be shipped with hot characters, self-insert wanna be
#this is not even about sasusaku#is more about pairing sakura with everyone and their mamas and being weirdly obsessed with that#like.....you just don't like her at all#which is okay#but get shame on your face or something and write an oc#i'm looking at you akatsuki x sakura shippers#this will never be about my pookies who ship inosaku cuz they're right#also i love you leesaku moots#and#may I say#or DARE I say#saisaku.....i see you#but anyways she's so much more than that#i'm over shipping at this point in life#naruto#sakura#haruno sakura

tagged by ko @tofumilanesa for wip wednesday! big shout out to writevember for making me feel like i can actually call any of these works in progress… your guide to my emoji code under the cut
wip!
🪻🐈⬛ - the doc title is still just. YOWLING but i am like 7/8 of the way done with omega yamo fic and hopefully salem isn’t reading this so i can just drop it over a year later with no warning <3
🫃2️⃣ - DEWEY^2 P2!!!! she is almost done (i am lying) but she is so close i can almost taste it. sorry to my pwp that grew its own feelings baby
😇🤭 (🕒 -> 🕜) - rip i’m not telling you about this one until it’s posted but it IS complete aside from being ao3 formatted and the eight billion edits i inevitably do right before full-sending it
☁️💧 - cloud petey fic, which exists mostly as an embarrassingly large tag on a different blog and is condensing into a narrative about as well as water at 30° N/S. the time loop fic also falls under this description
eternally in progress (short list)
🌑🐕 - tyler borzoituzzi exists… there is an index of scenes/plot points… it plays like a movie in my head…
💯❕- fantastic! ‘verse
👁️👻 - stevie brandon seeing ghosts au, which has eight different (now nine i guess but you haven't seen the mustache adam post yet) plots. sorry
just. rotating like a microwave
🍎 - because they didn’t have a pomegranate emoji, this is what i used for the fic that feels like it should be a 50k connor bedard character study hanif abdurraqib/cathal kelly thesis about legends and mythmaking in sports and eating your young. yes i know pomegranates aren’t actually pomes and apples are but it’s fine
🦈 - the one cat da fuck they doing over there meme but about the sharks just like. in general. more on this at five
tagging @colap1nto, @songsandswords, @whitenikes, @gordiemeow, @acheronist, and anybody else who wants to share!!
#i regret to inform the public (beloved mutuals who read my tags) that we have hit the doldrums re: creativity.#got SO excited because i had no prep for tomorrow and got out unreasonably early and proceeded to do nothing 🤩 zero motivation/inspiration#anyway. being a big baby. have looked at dewey^2 for too long and now hate it which makes me sad because i was on SUCH a roll solving plot#and really i just need to pick something else from my (looks at smudged hand) 10000 other documents but none of them are calling my nameeee#maybe i’ll ao3 format 🕒 -> 🕜 or maybe i’ll read wandering stars (did finish a book this morning) and then hope something strikes me#preferably very aggressively like with the force of a train? OHHHHHH YOU GUYS MAYBE I COULD MAKE SOMETHING FOR HOLY JUMPING MACKEREL FEST#because you know what DID hit me upside the head like a 2x world champ coming from behind with the steel chair WAS BERGY & JOE GUESS WHO#joey first of all did not deserve to lose those games and second of all i am SO immensely delighted i don’t know if it’s on here yet i am#so sure at least one of my beloved drw moots (beth and nik are likely culprits but all of u would) has it on here yet BUT THERE’S SO MUCH#BERGY VERY BLATANTLY CALLING JOE A NERD BC HE KNOWS ALL ABT HIS TEAMMATES &LOVES THEM!! BERGY NOT KNOWING A SINGLE FUCKIN THING ABT ANYONE!#the absolute unsurprised yet still heartbroken disbelief & disappointment of joe saying ‘he uses black tape!’ oh that’s rent-free forever#anyway.#liv in the replies#p.s. it's fic friday now don't worry about how late i am#as always ask away ask about anything in post tags y'all know i love to yap u are always welcome in the inbox or dms#i was trying to be slightly less mysterious about all of these but i am a secret-keeper sorry and also you need to live inside my brain#in order to understand half of what i'm referencing sometimes. sorry.#also there are some un-hockey fic projects i want to do but i have. so little time in my life for anything sometimes that we will make do

also y'all
does anybody have the original japanese of this line from book 5 ch 27???
bc rereading it i was like. O_O. is he. not talking about vil.
i was thinking like "the first read through you're definitely meant to think so, and vil did absolutely change rook's life, but with context from both book 6 and his halloween vignette, what he's describing here leans more towards the latter" which is like. masterful gaybait i can't even be mad. it's like that post saying "some gaybaiting is like a box propped up with a stick and a block of cheese underneath" except this has all the intricacy of a steampunk clock.
but my VERY shoddy japanese skills r telling me the line translates more to "beauty in your eyes and the darkness, lighting up your entire life for you—in a time in your existence when you'll be able to have [such an experience] (expanding on the prev line where he says they'll be able to understand his ideology in the future)"
^ and i probably mangled this so bad but the main point is i didn't hear him refer to a "someone" like he does in the english tl & i'm wondering if i missed it or if it was in fact added!!!
#txt#how should i tag this to potentially reach ppl who know the answer#twisted wonderland#rook hunt#i was gonna say the sunbeam simile does lean the other way too but iirc he does describe vil as radiant in an earlier scene so that's moot#anyway even if my translation is right you can interpret it as either of the ways i was talking about but it is/would be much more openended#much more cryptic and rookish hahahahaha#japanese is so hard dawg i only had to look up one of the words in this line to understand p much all of them but i still struggled so hard#figuring out what the words meant together😭💔#& inb4 i'm having monolingual struggles i speak mandarin chinese as a second language which Also uses topic-comment structure#i do have way less experience w japanese though & one sentence of modern japanese can feel like a paragraph of mencius to me.#modern mandarin does not do 5d chess with language quite so much

Ok I am bad with social media. But can someone explain to me like what exactly you are supposed to do with mutuals? Like I follow them and then they follow me back. Are we... supposed to do anything after that? Do I DM them afterwards? I'm very confused.
#Please help#Also is moots a short form for mutual?#Someone should come up with like a social media how to book because I open up this website and get instantly bamboozled#Its even worse on Twitter#Like#I just want to look at people's art. Why is there so much text?#Also#So many buttons#What am i supposed to do with them?#How do replies even work on there?#What does ratio mean and why is that a big deal?#I get so confused whenever I leave my homepage#Like threads? How do I read those?#Oh I got carried away in the tags#Also how do I look up stuff on there tags make no sense#Ok I'm done#I feel ashamed whenever someone in irl asks if I post on Twitter and I'm like#I am scared to touch any other button other than like

ok I know it wouldn't make much sense in canon but it'd be hilarious if Asbel took Cheria's last name after they get married. "Oh I'm supposed to be Asbel Lhant, the Lord of Lhant? WRONG. Asbel Barnes. I respect my wife more than my job 😂"
#dolphin noises#I cant figure out if his last name came first or if their family took on the name of the town#I'm not sure it really qualifies as a 'last name' anyway. It's probably more akin to 'da Vinci' yknow?#The family of Lhant are the ones who lord over Lhant. So it's really Asbel of Lhant (or the House of Lhant)#so applying modern ideas of taking a last name w marriage is probably moot yet still amusing to me#similarly Richard doesnt actually have a last name either. 'Windor' is just his fanon last name.#but I use it for organization & to distinguish him from other fandom's Richards#also it's cute for him to match Asbel :)#Pascal doesnt have a last name either which is interesting. Maybe that's not a common Amarcian custom?#You could say the same about Windor except Cheria has one 🤔#A lot of last names come from the parents' occupations so maybe I should look into whether 'barnes' has roots in a job?#Like someone who looks after a barn? But Frederick is a butler so idk 😅#Anyway this was all sparked by an irl customer with the last name Barnes so I bet w some research I can learn its meaning

Currently obsessed with the second vers Ashley's song from super smash bros and the more I listen to it I gotta agree
The instrumental really reminds me of Pinky and the Brain like the little March melody? A course singing about the main characters and what they wanna do? The little silly musical sounds in between the song? Little like Patb
youtube
which also is kinda fitting for Ashley and red in a way?
They have that grumpy character and happy go lucky character trope going on which I love they're so silly
:]
#pinky and the brain#patb#wario ware#wario ware Ashley#rambles#idk having a fixation both at the time makes me think wow they're so connected...#(literally have just similar character types as the only connection to pinky and the Brain)#it's so bad I think I gotta work on that au some time soon I keep mentioning it but when I'm done cleaning I need to work on it#I already did sketches so let's see if a second and 3rd try will finalize the designs#always thought it was a missed potential for not nintendo not dubbing it in English??#it's actually way more fitting in the English vers cause in Japanese she's like yay I wanna make friends:]#meanwhile in English she talks about how she turned her teacher into a spoon cause she didn't do homework#or how's she's gonna cast a spell on you with combining idk kitten spit and grandmas wig in a pot like??#missed potential much#also yea I needed to like really ramble about thsi I remember like info dumping this on a server years ago but nobody really looked at it#which fair JEJDJDJ two popular yet obscure media in one? I barely met anyone from either fandom that knows/intrested the other JEJDRJRJ#please would be awesome to have moots who like both it would be awesome 🙏#Youtube
