f1 ollie bearman upon being asked about his girlfriend in an interview at the Saudi Arabian grand prix: "When I saw her for the first time, all of my focus went out the window. To me, everyone else was just a blur and my heart started beating so fast I thought my chest was going to explode. It felt like time froze just so I could look at her. And when she looked at me, my brain went on a hiatus. She was so pretty she literally broke my brain,"

EVERYONE HEAR ME OUT (I think I was so close to entering the void)

From what I noticed, void is literally just as simple as sleeping, but because we suddenly heared about it we thought it's something way too complicated and "impossible" and that's what made us take a little processing the whole thing and practicing it ig, but the last week I was sick, and tbh I had no energy to overthink the attempt like I always did, so I layed down in my bed, wrapped up myself in a blanket and since I always fall asleep when I'm laying, I sat a LITTLE and supported my back with pillows so My position can be both comfortable and a mix between sitting+ laying, and literally I was just there, took breathes, said I'm in void (affirming), and I had a void subliminal playing out on my sister's phone (mine is broken), as I said I had no energy to do extra work which is (overthinking it/overcomplicate it) and as I'm sick I was low-key between being aware and unaware, I took like 10 or 20 minutes idk but it was the most successful attempt so far, I suddenly realized that I can't hear the subliminal on my sister's phone? I LITERALLY CANT HEAR ITT, I was like bitch where is it? It's just gone even tho it was right next to my pillow, but what confused me is I could first feel my body and second feel my room, I wasn't in void completely or idk really, I still affirmed anyways, and once I was done (let me tell you how I was done, once i stopped hearing the subliminal.. my dumbass started wondering why it stopped and where did it go lmao, so i focused on it again and thats where i started hearing it which means if i was close now im not☠️😭 ) I realized it wasn't void but I guess it was close enough? I have no clue but guys! This gave me so much hope and knowledge, I knew it's just by letting the whole thing go and literally just exist!!! (Even while im laying down i had soooo many thoughts i cant even remember them, i was just randomly overthinking while breathing and being there) Yk when you're down and you have ZERO energy to go throughout the day? Yes, do this with the void, act so chill and be like meeh and you'll be in, plus I read a post here that's still stuck in my head idk the acc but it said : "void is just like sleeping, when ur going to sleep do you complicate it and say I'm going to sleep I'm going to sleep? Like you're going to war or smthn?"

The point is to not complicate it and remember that BITCH YOU'RE DOING IT FOR THE SAKE OF YOU!!!!!!! DONT BE LAZY, DONT COMPLICATE IT BECAUSE YOU DESERVE HAVING IT SO EASY SINCE U STRUGGLED FOR THIS LONG, IT ALL FOUND YOUUUU FOR A REASON, YOU GO GET THAT REASON DONEE!!!!!

Note:

1. I'm consistently affirming for void whenever I can despite what I feel or see.

2. It exists

3. It's easy af.. It's like- idk for example its as easy as walking but I can't explain walking so you gotta do it yourself type of thing

I hope I helped <3

[aihoshiino]

I just rewatched the first episode of Oshi no Ko again and I have to spew at someone who understands the brainrot lmao

It always gets me how Ai is such a kind and loving person that she LITERALLY EXTENDS COMPASSION TO HER OWN MURDERER. She acknowledges that she's not sure she truly loves him and her other fans, but she WANTS to. She remembers who he is, remembers his name, and remembers the gift he got her. And this is all after he, you know, stabbed her and hurled a tirade of misogynistic slut-shaming at her.

And while she's bleeding out on the floor, she idly wonders if the dome concert and her movie gig will get canceled; the thought of her death inconveniencing others makes her sad. And of course, she spends her last breaths telling her children how much she loves them.

idk dude it just kills me that Ai is such a deeply loving, compassionate, and warm person and yet convinced herself that she's nothing but a liar who's incapable of love. This is what being abused as a child does to you 😭

i was white knuckle gripping this ask for So long because I wanted to add something intelligent or substantive to it but. man. MAN!!!!! this really is just the whole damn thing isn't it.

I think this scene in particular is why I was always so baffled by people who seemed to ready and able to jump to assumptions about Ai that amount to like... not necessarily that she was Secretly Evil but that everything about her was some Epic Manipulationz and even stuff like her scene with Ryosuke was just her being Such A Good Liar and being an Epic Female Sigma Manipulator or what the fuck ever. Or that she was lying all the way through 45510 and Viewpoint B.

Because like... at that point, are you even really engaging with the character or the text? No, you're explaining it away and erasing it. And after that, what is left? What emotion and narrative weight do we have left if all those incredible scenes were just pretend all along? Essentially, what people who advocate for this reading of her character are trying to push is a version of the series in which the reader's baseline emotional investment in the fucking premise is meaningless and ultimately betrayed.

I think there are stories in which that intentional sense of anticlimax and betrayal are both intentional and thematically resonant - Umineko immediately comes to mind but there are also plenty of other stories in which we're presented with a character on a pedestal only to have it crumble in front of us and both reader and characters alike must process what that means for them.

Oshi no Ko very deliberately does not do this because its core point is that Ai didn't want to be on the fucking pedestal! She just wanted to be treated like a normal human being. The deconstruction of her character is really, at the end of the day, an indictment of the people around her who contributed to deifying and dehumanizing her. The deep dark secret that the series spends 130+ chapters building towards is, after all, "Ai Hoshino was just a normal girl you could find anywhere."

[rontra]

your failteacher comic is so cool…. i can’t stop thinking about how masterfully textured your characterizations are, and while i had no context for the games (aside from, well, the Adult Women In Persona Curse lmao) being an ffxiv player made those gags really fun to read too ^_^

the best part of everything is that i genuinely want to try making comics about my own yuri rarepairs now… i was wondering if you’d ever be open to talking about your process when tackling these comics wrt the writing process and layout? you have such a strong understanding of panel composition that ive found myself admiring even small technical things things like your text and panel spacing. thank you so much for sharing your work!!

AUUYFDH THAJNK YOU .... this is so sweet 😭 i'm really glad you're enjoying it so much!!

if you're insane like me (been in pain like me) i totally recommend trying to make your own comics . its a very fun medium to work in!! comics have their own toolkit and language that i think is really strong and fun to play with. if you have specific questions for me about it i don't mind, but i will say that i'm kind of like ... yknow

FTyuri is drawn really loosely. i make a lot of "mistakes" (or at the very least, sub-optimal choices) in my paneling/layouts because i don't really have a plan for each page (LOL). i'm "self-taught" in the sense of "guy who reads a lot of comics and has internalized a lot of things as a result", so sometimes i do things based on intuition and vibe more than anything (and sometimes that does not work out super well!)

i guess what i'm saying is i'm a hobbyist who just kinda does whatever feels good, so my advice won't be particularly Scholarly AHJBHF but i love comics (reading AND making) a lot, so i don't mind if you're wondering about specific things i've done or how i approach them

i think... most importantly, you know, a comic is kind of a huge undertaking. it's A Lot of drawing. but it's also very fun. so pace yourself and choose a project with a length you think is manageable, but do try it! 😤😤

the second thing is... a comic is not just a collection of pictures, right? it's important to guide the reader through each page in the correct order, while also controlling the pace and flow of the story. you place speech bubbles or eyecatching elements where you want the reader's eye to go, and use things like the size and placement of panels and the gutters between them to slow down or speed up time. i have done some FUCKED UP text box placements in FTyuri that are totally wrong and it makes me crazy whenever i see them in hindsight but THATS OKAYYYY

'cause the third thing is you're always learning new things. even if you make a not-so-great layout or even if you never actually finish the comic, you're still learning stuff that will go into your next comic. and so on...

now, here's the "maybe don't actually do what i do" part AJHREDHB

i actually don't really plan anything at all. sometimes i have a specific idea for a page layout and have it in my mind beforehand, but most of the time i just pull up a canvas and start adding panels to it willy-nilly. i also don't write anything down in advance. at most i have a loose "i want to someday draw a scene where X happens" in my mind, but all the layout and dialogue happens when i get there

YOU SHOULD PROBABLY WRITE DOWN AT LEAST A ROUGH SCRIPT/OUTLINE. AND DO SOME THUMBNAILS FOR YUOUR PAGES. ESPECIALLY IF YOURE JUST STARTING OUT

edit: check the replies for a cool link about planning out a comic!!!

planning out the scope of your project is important! i'm just not that kind of girl 😭 and that does result in a lot of mistakes! but the alternative is that i never get around to actually making anythign at all, which is worse to me

for me, that stuff slows me down and drains all my energy before i even start. but this approach uh. does not work for everyone and its probably best to start with a more planned-out approach 😂 though, if you do try to pre-plan and find it makes your brain explode like mine does, you can try just drawing it and seeing what happens. bc like. hey. it works for me . i dunno

but yeah like i said if you have a specific topic/question i don't mind answering that more specifically!!! comics is a very broad subject so it's hard to know what to say about it just like Generally hahaha. thank you so much <3

I just notice that all the kings are like... really tall...

So... Could I request some headcanons about the kings with a smol MC (smolllll) are going for a walk, then MC tries to keep up with their long steps and said "Wait for me! I got little legs!!!". The king's reactions plssssss 😭😭 (sorryyyyy for the grammar 🥹)

They’re HUGE and perfect this way. PB didn't skimp on giving them growth steroids. And I'm talking about all their sizes. 38 cm… AHKEM back to the point. Poor Satan, he's the only one of reasonable size in human terms and suffers for it lmao Mocking him for it is my love language

Also, don't worry about your English, it's good! As long as we understand each other everything is fine. I'm not native english speaker myself.

꧁:･ ✡ ･:꧂

Satan will look at you over his shoulder. He walks quite fast and is always in front to protect you. Usually, he will slow down a bit, but he won't want to walk hand in hand with you unless you are in a safe place or someone else is in front of you. For safety. If he wants to tease you, he'll pretend he doesn't hear you down there (do you know how satisfied that makes him? Finally, someone shorter than him). Ah, if you need to get somewhere fast, be ready to be thrown over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. And he really hope it pisses you off~

Mammon slows down immediately. His Master's words are his command. It will take him a while to learn to walk really slowly, he is huge, his one step is your three. “Maybe we can work on speeding you up, Master? Maybe I'll carry you in my arms? Sedan chair? Levitating shoes? What do you mean, such thing doesn't exist? We will invent it for you. Walking slower is enough? Alright, then be it.” Still, he likes the idea of carrying you the most, so be prepared that sometimes your walk will be in his arms.

Beelzebub will speed up, turn on his heel and walk backwards, teasing you in the process. “These poor little legs need some work out, what do you say to run with me~?” His taunts go in one ear and out the other because you wonder how he hasn't tripped yet. When he gets tired of teasing you, he will come over and wrap his arm around your waist. That way he won't forget to go at your pace (suuure, we all know that’s not the real reason).

Leviathan will stop in place. If you run into his back, expect a glance of contempt over his shoulder. "Pathetic." But despite his muttering to himself, he'll be the only one who remembers it. Always. You may not pay attention to it anymore, because from now on he will always walk at a pace that is not a problem for you. He will remember it and adjust his speed to you every time. After all, he's perfect, isn't he?

HIII>< Good day to you my dearest🤗🤗 Have you eaten? Drink? If not then please do! I know I said It might not be able to interact with you but like the weather is so bad in my country(there's like three storm rn), also some volcanic activities and some freaking illness going around rn😭😭 Whatever spiritual power there is hates my country cause what is this😭😭. Anywayyyy, I lost track again°>° well uh I just got suddenly curious on how, when, where fyodor and his darling got married. Like what was the process of it, the preparation, the people invited and such. I'm imagining it as somewhat very private event and very intimate (It's fyodor obv) Probably not a lot of people invited. It'll obviously be in a cathedral of sort with a priest and such. Ohh now I wonder how it'll work considering different cultures and religions (of darling). Like in my culture you can invite the whole village! Your distance cousin's friend might even be there😆 I'm kinda exaggerating but it does happen. Also the wedding clothes of darling and Fyodor! Ahhh I'm imagining Fyodor rn🥰🥰🥰

Also I'm really really sorry🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️ for overwhelming you with my ask! Well that's the end of it! Ig??? I'm going to do my projects now... Thank you for listening to my yapping and being so kind! 🫵❤️❤️❤️Truly you are amazing. I hope you have/gotten a good day🙏

Sincerely —🧛🏻‍♀️🫀Anon

Good day, my love, 🧛🏻‍♀️🫀-anon! ♥️ I’m doing well and hope the same for you. Please take care—it sounds truly concerning. 🥺

Regarding your request, I must admit I never thought about it either, lmao. By the way, you can invite the whole village in my culture too—though I wouldn’t do that! 😭 Close family and friends are all I need. ♥️ I wrote some headcanons, I hope you enjoy reading them!♥️

Also, I’ve come up with pictures for my 🍷💝-anon who needs visualizations.

Fyodor x ideal type fem!darling, marriage, wedding, visualisation, religious themes etc.

Fyodor & his darling’s wedding

The process would be very thorough, with high security measures and many people involved in the preparations.

As Fyodor’s little princess and soon-to-be bride, you won’t experience any discomfort because of it.

There will be plenty of people handling the arrangements for you.

All you need to do is relax, choose your wedding gown, select your jewelry from the exquisite vintage pieces Fyodor orders from around the world, and provide your preferences for the cake flavors and the flowers.

You’ll only need to engage in the preparations that interest you—your fiancé ensures that you’re always comfortable with everything that’s happening.

I don’t see either of you inviting many people due to security measures, and honestly, Fyodor has no one to invite.

So, it will likely be just the two of you, your close family (such as your parents and siblings), and the priest along with the staff who will be serving you.

Since you’re marrying Fyodor, it will naturally be very intimate and private. We can’t expect much glamour or razzamatazz.

The vows would be exchanged in the cathedral, and later you’d move to a medieval-themed setting for the wedding celebration.

There, you’d enjoy a meal and your wedding cake. Perhaps you might even dance to your favorite waltz—who knows?

Considering different cultures and his ideal type, your darling, being introverted and easygoing, would likely embrace Fyodor’s vision of their wedding.

This means there might be no village invitations, which could seem a bit sad, but it’s all part of Fyodor’s unique way of doing things.

~

Those are elegantly feminine. Fyodor would certainly admire the lace, as it’s traditionally seen as a symbol of femininity—something he would appreciate for its delicate beauty and timeless charm.

Those gowns are fine, but they show the maximum amount of flesh permissible for a cathedral setting, especially when marrying a traditional, possessive man like Fyodor.

You’d definitely need a veil if you choose to wear such a wedding gown.

Fyodor could wear just about anything, but here are some classic groom outfits. I can definitely see him opting for the white one, as most of his clothing is white and he associates himself with the color.

However, the darker outfit could also suit him, especially considering the official picture of him in a fancy dark-colored tuxedo.

- genkazuryusen poly is so good because kazugen must feel so incensed with senryuu hiding shit from them and going off together to try and save the world by themselves.. and it’s not even because they don’t respect kazugen it’s just that senryuu cares for kazugen too much and they’re trying to shoulder the burden just between the two of them. gaahhhh okay i need to make a chart before i lose it bc like HOLD AWNNNN (i didn't put it here but banjo specifically understanding the reasons/heart of sento's decisions is such a good flavor between all four of them)

lads i am so hyped for IWMOY 😔🫵 just wanna say, I read this fic when it still had 8 chapters I believe ?? and I opened the day I was leaving my job and I got a surprise burger on my break from one of the chefs ((I then moved country))) SO UH YEAH !! Fics that hit me hard always have a very VERY specific memory to me. Like I read it in hours flat I’d say, I have never felt so emotional over a fic like I’ve sobbed happy and sad tears-

💕💕

ANYWAYS AS FOR LIKE QUESTIONS !!!

-What inspired you to create IWMOY ?

-I’m curious but in the flashbacks - did Cooper die? When he stopped breathing and Leo panicked? I’m wondering about this and if Kenny may have ever seen Cooper die until well when he shot himself…. I’m only asking because I like to read so heavily into details and little stuff like this and I just want my own personal confirmation LMAO !!

-What was the most challenging part when creating some of the lore for the fics ??

First of all, I just wanna say that I appreciate you so much Volta 😞🙏💖. You’ve fr been the best tumblr moot I’ve ever had because you’re the only one that’s always interacting with me. I WILL LITERALLY DIE FOR YOU HOMIE, JUST ASK AND I WILL KILL FOR YOU TOO!!! 🗣️🗣️🔥💯 Okay okay answering time!

[this post will contain I Will Make of You spoilers for chapter 8 to 14 🙂‍↕️]

IWMOY is so interesting because it was those types of projects where there were a lot of mini-things that pushed me to create it, and it all just came together all at once.

From what I could remember, I think it first started with the idea of “what if Kenny has a child and that child goes back in time to meet him when he’s a teenager?” It was pretty comical in my head. Like it’s one thing for Kenny to be a parent, but him meeting said kid when he’s still a teenager? Hilarious! I always though next gen fan-kids where pretty fun if done right, and there was a big lack of content for it on ao3, along with time travel stories. Then, another idea came to me (I don’t remember if this was before the other one, or after): “what if Kenny met another immortal?” At first, I thought of Karen turning out to be immortal, or someone else getting that ability, but none of them stuck. Either way, I had this idea floating in my head;;; I for sure wanted to right a bunny centric story too, so I was just daydreaming of different story ideas for those two. It wasn’t until I suddenly got an epiphany….. “What if Kenny’s son ends up having the same powers of immortality as him?” I saw so much potential with this idea because I could only imagine the guilt he would feel as a parent!! (I sort of mention this here too) It was something worth exploring, so I decided to write the concept in my notes app.

*my usual process before starting a fic is me writing an idea in my notes app, and if I want to continue exploring the idea, I move it to my docs*

Since it was a sci-fi/time travel focused idea, I decided to rewatch a lot of different time travel movies in the meantime (Back to the Future, the Adam Project, Predestination, etc). It wasn’t until I rewatched Meet the Robinsons, and I heard "Another Believer" that I FINALLY got a song to inspire me into establishing the relationship between Kenny and his future son. I wasn’t writing scenes just yet, I was actually just daydreaming of this concept and potential scene ideas, mentally brainstorming, but I was still lacking a solid plot! Around this time, my friends and I were doing a watch party, and my movie choice was the new South Park special the “End of Obesity.” While watching it, there was this part where Butters got stuck in a tesseract.

(Okay but looking back and seeing Butters being the one stuck in the tesseract inside the black hole is actually funny given how my story is going to play out😭)

I didn’t understand this reference at first, until one of my friends told me it was suppose to be an ‘Interstellar’ reference. I was like??? What??? Then Lyn and another friend of mine were like “YOU HAVENT SEEN INTERSTELLAR?!?!” And I was like??? No??? So when we finished watching the special, we put the movie on and… IT FUCKING CLICKED. The music, the science, the family, YEARNING, THE HUMAN EMOTIONS— that, coupled with what I got from Meet the Robinsons. IT WAS LIKE MY BRAIN JUST OPENED. I kid you not, I sat in front of my computer, put the interstellar soundtrack and just started drafting and brainstorming on my Docs on July 14 of 2024:

No food or sleep, just moving my freaking hands on the keyboard. Eventually, I was writing all these scenes appearing in my head, and i was like???? I can literally start drafting the chapters out instead??? I was typing for a total of three days straight when I finished outlining and drafting the entirety of IWMOY 💀💀…. But, I was still going through it tho 🙁. For one, I realized this story was going to have an OC as a main character, and me personally, I kinda don’t like OCs in fics…. So I didn’t think people were gonna like this fic in the first place. Another, was the time travel dilemma. There are so many contradictions and plot holes with A LOT (and I mean… pretty much all) of time travel focused movies. 💀 I’m so over critical and it got on my nerves when it kept happening, so I had to create SOMETHING that would make time travel work! (Which eventually became the One-Tab Guide). I wasn’t going to post this fic at all, and maybe wait until I was done posting all the IBMT chapters I had outlined, but… I just couldn’t stop thinking about that fic. I had it all basically figured out, and I was so fascinated with the concept I had created… but, “it’s an oc centric fic,,,,, maybe people won’t like it and it would all be for nothing…”

It wasn’t until my 2 bffs gave me some encouragement that I finally gave in; I finished the first chapter of IWMOY and got it posted on August 6th of 2024 :,) I didn’t think it would become as huge as it is now. So I truly mean it when I say that I’m so incredibly happy people are enjoying a project I thought no one would like <333. I cannot thank you guys enough.

[SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 14]

So, yes. Cooper did actually die in that scene 😔. His cause of death was Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome (Y’know, that thing where babies just??? die??? Just cuz??? 😭??). Coopers first actual death was back in the artificial womb in chapter 13. His second was that scene with Butters. And his third death was when he was 4 (Cooper considers that death his first because it’s the only one he could recall). The only real death Kenny witnessed before Cooper shot himself was the one in the artificial womb 💔 sadly (would’ve saved a whole lot of complications if they just communicated 😫 but no).

Actually— let me explain what happened in that scene with Butters POV (because it’s actually pretty dark): Kenny went back to the lab to attend on some work-related issues, and Butters decided to go out in the meantime to do some quick grocery shopping. So he took baby Coop in a carrier and they both went out! While he was shopping, he’s picking out things here and there when he notices something is… off. “Coop, baby?” He checks up on Cooper to see if he’s okay, but he’s oddly still and cold to the touch. “Cooper? Baby, wake up… ” He starts to pull him out of the carrier to check on his vitals, “Wake up, Cooper!!” but he’s not responding at all. “Oh Jesus, COOPER! Somebody!! Help me!!! My baby-” Since Cooper isn’t responding, Butters starts to sob and ask for help, but everyone keeps ignoring him. “SOMEBODY, PLEASE!! MY BABY NEEDS HELP MY BABY, HE’S-” But just when Butters realizes that Cooper is, in fact, dead, his tears suddenly halt. He puts Cooper back in the carrier, and returns to his shopping…. Butters probably left Cooper in the car and in that carrier; it gave Cooper the chance to respawn in his crib before Kenny arrived. I feel like deep down, that part of Butters’ who had that immense amount of parental love for his baby WANTED to fight against the curse. As he was going on about his day as his son lay dead, I imagine how he was probably screaming in pure anguish inside of his head while his body was in this weird autopilot type of dissociation :(. And since he was trying so hard to fight it, a fraction of the memory stayed. It’s why he had that "nightmare" in his sleep. *Sigh…..*

-

Surprisingly, this fic wasn’t as challenging compared to the other series I’m working on. But if I were to choose something that was sort of complicated, I think it would be the time travel aspect of the story and Cooper’s characterization. I have this need to always use logic in every situation; everything has to have an answer or a meaning. I try my best NOT to be like that, but…. I can’t help it 🥲. I basically review my story the way an English teacher would LMAOOO. In the question of “why did the author describe the curtains being blue?” I’m not a “there’s no real meaning, the curtains are just blue” I’m a big “YES, YES THEY’RE BLUE FOR A REASON! THANK GOD YOU NOTICED!!!” type of person 😭.

I mentioned earlier that I wanted to work around the time travel dilemma: “how do you make time travel work and fix around its plot holes?” Thankfully, I was able to pull out my trusty whiteboard and go on different scientific rambles regarding the theories and paradoxes with my friends. “How will Cooper go back in time and talk to Kenny without causing a grandfather paradox?” or “if they do save Butters and Kate, wouldn’t that cause a split?” Basically, all of the questions Craig and Kyle were asking in chapter 14, I was asking them myself🫡.

As for the other one, it was mainly Cooper’s characterization and how to make him a likable OC. He’s not an actual canon character, which means that most people won’t care about him like they would with one of the other South Park boys. I had to figure out his personality, backstory, and his motivations in a way that would hook readers. I didn’t want to make him exactly like Kenny or a carbon copy of Butters— I wanted to give him his own autonomy, but have his personality reflect the way he was raised, and his troubles with immortality in a realistic way [his attitude throughout the story was a buildup for the reveal in chapter 8 and his backstory arc]. He’s kinda like Kenny, yes, but I wanted to give him quirks that parallel differences between the two. One of them was suppose to be their immortality. Cooper views it as power and a way to escape trouble, while Kenny sees it as a painful curse he could occasionally use as a tool for the sake of scientific progression. It’s why Cooper is all willy-nilly about ending his life while Kenny (current timeline as well) is stressing his balls off 💀. I was afraid that Cooper acting like a reckless dick in the first couple of chapters was going to put people off, and.. maybe it has… but giving his reasoning in his POV arc hopefully painted some kind of explanation 😣, bro just loves his family and wants them back. It would’ve been less complicated if Cooper just explained things to Kenny early on, BUT;;; I mean, Cooper’s just a 14 year old kid that believes he can handle everything on his own because of his powers [sadly lil bro is NOT immune 🙁], he was still grieving, and he was afraid of disappointing his father for failing his dad and sister— yeah, even disappointing his younger version. Hm.

-

I don’t think those doubts and anxiety when it comes to my own writing will ever leave, especially with the upcoming projects I’m planning on writing. I really put my heart and soul into these things, and I want to give it my all; it’s not just a fanfiction to ME guys!!!! And I want you to FEEL the same feelings I feel whenever I consume a piece of media that makes me feel human. “This is what humans were meant to be doing! Feel alive! Not work a 9 to 5 just to survive!” 😫. But anyways, thanks for this ask Volta 🥹❤️‍🩹 hope you enjoyed this answer.

Crimson Rivers thoughts pt. 12

chapter 22:

1. 😟😟 all james wants is for sirius to be there for james the way james ALWAYS was for sirius

2. 😟 james wished hodge happy birthday even though hodge died yesterday. i- i am not okay

3. “Regulus never fails to look up. Evan would be proud of him for that, he thinks.” 😧 that was vile to put in there

4. james has resorted to BEGGING for medicine from sirius and can’t understand why sirius won’t send any. this hurts so bad

5. nope. i’m done. i can’t read any more. james started looking forward to death cause he would be out of this arena and out of pain. jfc i’m done

6. anyways. i’m back cause i couldn’t stop reading.

7. REGULUS AND JAMES ARE REUNITED!!! THANK GOD!!! 😊

8. 😧 wait nevermind. james just mistook regulus for sirius. “James has never, not once in his life under any circumstances, mistaken Regulus for Sirius”

9. james is delulu from medicine and reg just found out that the plan has always been to get reg home. this hits like a motherfucking truck

10. james is high as a fucking kite, can’t figure out why “sirius” is being mean to him, cause he’s never been mean to him. and is also wondering why “sirius” is oddly attractive for being mean

11. it takes james half a chapter, and reg cutting his shirt for james to realize it’s not sirius. cause sirius has different scars. i love james sm 😭😭

12. “What was Sirius thinking? Drugging James? In the middle of the fucking hunger games? That might be the most idiotic thing Regulus has ever known his brother to do, and this is Sirius he's talking about, so that's saying a lot. Sirius once flipped a cigarette in the air and tried to catch it with his mouth while it was lit, and kept doing it until he could actually consistently manage it, no matter how much it burned him. Though, in fairness, he can still do that trick to this day.”

LMAO WHAT??? that’s so random and i love it

13. 😧 legit sobbing. reg says that james lost the spark in his eyes. and he’s the one person he expected to never lose his spark

14. reg reveals that they both can go home. james’ spark is back. i’m sobbing harder now. they’re so in love

15. i eat, breathe, and dream those author end notes. bizzarestars writes their end notes the way my brain processes the fic. <33

chapter 23:

1. starting the chapter off with pain, i see. losing vanity changed james. like. horribly changed him.

2. “What Regulus hates more than James is his suffering.” jfc he’s so emotionally constipated

3. james is sad and all reg can think is hmmmm i want him to start flirting with me again, because it meant he was happy bitch wtf

4. awww they’re cuddling and just got a package! my babies are gonna make it out!

5. reg realizes he has to put on a show, so he offers to feed james. and wants to gouge his eyeballs out for offering that. 😭😭😭😭

6. i’m dying from embarrassment but this is also so fucking funny. reg is like. let’s talk about our feelings. for each other. and james is just like *head tilt* ???

7. “"You weren't my first crush, James," Regulus whispers. "You were my first love."”

james didn’t just make reg feel good, he made reg feel and i am NOT okay.

8. “This whole time, Regulus has been steady on the fact that he wouldn't kiss James to save his own life, but he's apparently willing to do it to save James'.”

JFC why is he so emotionally constipated???

9. THEY KISS????? james is gonna be heartbroken when he realizes it was all an act

10. oh thank god james realized. at least it broke his heart now and not in two weeks

11. *squints* now reg has never wanted anything more than this kiss. girl. please. realize.

12. god, i’ve never read a kiss more beautifully and emotionally desperate written.

13. 😏 reg called him baby again!

14. oh god, maybe i’m just as bad as everyone in the hallow. maybe i’m just as bad as them. cause i enjoy their romance. i enjoy it so much. maybe i’m just as bad as the hallow for that. i- i think this every time i read the hunger games.

15. “James wants to sink his teeth into Regulus and leave the deep imprints of his teeth from one jutting hip bone to the other.” sometimes i forget that jegulus is a little unhinged in ways like this. and every time i’m reminded, I LOVE IT

16. “"You treat me like I'm stupid for daring to see good in people, but if there's no good in anyone, then what's the fucking point?"”

this entire section. this. this is what james is all about

17. 😟 authors note just told me i’m no better than a hallow. for my excitement over jegulus. and- yeah. i guess so. i’m so sorry y’all

[dirtbagcore]

HELLO im thinking about your saiki k / spyxfamily au...... im so fascinated by this family dynamic. does kuriko still have all her powers, or just telepathy? in your comic it looks like she still does the telepathic communication which i LOVE. pairs well with anyas constant yapping...... also, if kuriko does have all her powers, how powerful is she? id imagine she'd be about at the level of 16-year-old saiki with limiters, since in the time travel episode he was a bit older and a bit stronger (but he also didnt have glasses so i guess he didnt have the power to turn people to stone yet? i wonder if there are other powers he unlocks later. its probably in the manga but im only halfway through 😭). man, just imagine the shenanigans those kids would get up to..... even just putting kuriko in anyas place would be hilarious, but then also throwing anya AND kuusuke into the mix???? these kids are gonna accidentally destroy the world lmfao

but im also fascinated by the dynamic of. anya and kuriko being siblings and knowing about each others powers, but no one else knows about them (except probably kuusuke?). cause like. kusuo originally can use his powers at home, so now he can use them less freely, but anya originally had NO ONE who knew about them and now she has 2 siblings who do, so she can use them more freely. which would probably result in an even more reserved kuriko and an even more outgoing anya. plus kuusukes inferiority complex would be doubled..... loid has no idea what he just got himself into lmao. just absolutely insane family dynamics all around im obsessed

ANYWAY sorry for yapping in your inbox but i would love to hear any other thoughts you have about this au..... if you wanna share.....

^((TLDR; [in my S×F / Saiki K crossover AU where kuriko & anya are twins] what are kurikos powers? what's the new family dynamic?))

HIII! ( ≧∀≦)ノ THANKS 4 THE ASK!!! v happy to answer, i was thinking kuriko would:

1. still have all her powers, and

2. they would be weaker than in canon since she got her limiters early⬇️

this obv includes the fact that she can remember all her time as an infant, so thinking of that (considering the vague experiments anya went thru in canon) i deffo think ur right about her being even more reserved ( ´,_ゝ`) </3 tho tbf anya being kuriko's voice and seeming (from an outside perspective) to always just KNOW what she wants, no matter how specific, sounds really freaking cute ( T∀T)

i imagine her other powers coming up in little scenes (+ prob main plot stuff but im not writing allat for a thought experiment lol)⬇️⬇️

overall, i think the family dynamic would be like this⬇️⬇️⬇️

kusuke wouldnt be threatened by anya cause all she can do is read minds, shes no genius on top of that. his relationship with kuriko tho, i feel like would be similar to how it was in canon, except that since kuriko is more fragile here, id imagine that she'd be less willing to indulge kusuke's games- leading him to harbour more genuine resentment, in turn leading her to kinda fear him. it'd make their dynamic more angsty than the og, but tbh i feel that that lends well to the new setting/kusukes new role.

i dont think kuriko would mind loid or yor, but since she can remember their bio parents (kuniharu & kurumi) better than anya, i dont think she'd be able to accept them as her parents right away, especially yor.

the only other thing i wanted to mention was:

how did kusuke get into eden without parents, you ask? (you didnt but--) YOU ASK?? well obvi its cause he's a super genius and probably achieved something so crazy that the schoolboard REALLY wanted him as an alum, so he completely skipped over the regular admission process. he would live in the dorms and probably avoided talking abt his parents entirely (cause who would share their personal trauma with ants??), leaving a very convenient spot for loid to slip into lol

anyway! thats basically it!! thanks again for the ask, hope at least some ppl appreciate our wall of text!! (me n you are like this 🤞 btw. YAPPING 🔛🔝🔥) ☆(゜∇^d)!!

[justajsworkshop]

There's so much content, so many opinions on what works and what doesn't. I'm just scared to commit because I dont want to waste my time following the wrong teachings and rules😭Its been years in this community. do you maybe have any advice for me? As in who/what I can follow and what to do?

my advice is to take a step back and think about this from another perspective. let me give you a hypothetical:

for two seconds, just pretend that manifesting doesn't exist, and we gotta do everything the good ol' 3D way.

you have a friend who wants to lose weight, but they've never been to a gym before, they don't know a lot about healthy eating, they have no clue where to begin. they start researching weight loss tips but everyone is saying different stuff. keto, paleo, veganism, carb cycling, reverse dieting, lift weights, do cardio, workout every day, get rest days in, get 10k steps a day, etc.

this friend is frustrated, confused, and worried about how they're going to achieve their goal when everyone has different advice and perspectives. they pick up one approach for a day or two, maybe even a week or two, but ultimately back down from it because they're afraid it's all been a waste because someone else said something different works better. they're making zero progress along the way and losing faith in themselves and their ability to "do this right."

they come to you for advice and ask: what do i do?

what's your answer?

and i literally mean tell yourself the answer because your advice is going to be the best advice for yourself since no one knows you better than you. the biggest piece of advice i could give you right now is to learn how to become your own best friend on this journey.

there's a lot of different voices and opinions out there because there's literally infinite ways to manifest/shift. there is no one right way; there's only your way. manifesting isn't about what so-n-so says on zwitter or what j posts on tungles. it's not about methods or processes. it's about YOU.

at a certain point, you gotta be willing to break out of your fear and break some eggs to make an omelette. try stuff, test it out, see what you like and don't like. you're never going to find the right approach that works for you from the sidelines. no one likes to talk about the trial and error period because they don't wanna come off as limited, but honestly, some stuff you can't find out for yourself unless you just give it an honest shot to see if it resonates for you.

focus less on committing to/doing the wrong thing and adopt a growth mindset around this. be a scientist. experiment, document, reflect, iterate. like, you literally cannot "lose" anything from that perspective because you're always gaining knowledge and understanding of yourself and what works/resonates with you.

i really don't get why people are so afraid of trying because idk, maybe it's just my business mindset, but in business, we always say "fail fast." cuz when you do, it breaks you out of this overwhelming fear of messing up. just do it imperfectly. do it scared. do it confused. just TRY NEW THINGS and see what happens. no one can deem what does or doesn't work for you but YOU.

conscious manifesting is not a spectator sport. it's literally in the name lmao. you gotta be a conscious, i.e., an active, participant in the process. don't confuse this with efforting hard. you really just gotta be aware of yourself. that's it.

i know it's not the sexy "just decide you're doing it perfectly" -- which you def can do, and this helps. really, start encouraging yourself and telling yourself you're doing great and youre proud of yourself, too. healthy/positive self talk works wonders. but sometimes you literally just have to get over your own fear and insecurities and just try shit out because reality can't move until you do. you might as well start now!

really, just break some fuckin eggs.

[catboylesterr]

hi hi it’s @bamtwozled of “trying not to be completely insane in the tags of your failed ritual au” fame! (I hate using my main for asks forgive me lmao) this au compels me so bad and I was wondering if you had any lore for it you’d like to share besides what’s in the art 👀

AUGH thankyouthankyouthankyou for asking because I've REALLY been meaning to make a post talking about this au in more depth outside of art !!! I just keep getting preoccupied and forgetting 😭😭

(I had also specifically wanted to talk to u abt it via tags but even tho I've been on this app a couple years I still don't really know how reblogging other people's reblogs of your posts. works. so I'm glad you asked!! :3 )

Failed Ritual's lore is essentially the same as canon DAPC up to a certain point, that point being Slime, of course. Though we don't know much, we can assume the crafties met online in the same or a similar way as actual dnp. I personally think they split from real life events shortly b4 the first DAPC upload after they both begin to obsess over the occult. Maybe it stared from them looking at forums? Either way it devolves very fast.

We also know later on, pre-Slime, they were locked up together in a government facility for an undetermined amount of time and then escaped. I dont think just calling it 'obsessive occult practices' really comes close to scratching the surface of what they've been doing in universe at all, but we dont see all of their uploads, so we have to take what we have.

As for where I think it splits in Slime, there are so many things that had to go perfectly for the ritual to work that I think you can decide what you think the actual wrong move was for yourself, honestly!! It could've been like 10 seperate things. Maybe more than one, maybe just one tiny detail ruining everything. The actual Slime could've been made wrong prior to burning the night before, the ritual circle could've been sloppy, they could've just been out of practice from being in containment, even a candle accidentally snuffing out as Dan carved Phil's heart out. I like to think it was something very small that they were too preoccupied to notice.

Whichever you choose, when Dan begins to try and bring Phil back as he always has, [indicated by potato prints, Phil seems to be the one that usually dies and returns] it doesn't work. And Dan doesn't process it at first, waiting for a sign of life, but it begins to sink in quite quickly when nothing happens after a significant time. He tries everything he can think of to set things back on course and nothing works.

He doesn't leave Phil's side for days. But, eventually, he does, because otherwise he'll starve and have no way of even maybe getting him back. He doesn't have anything to dig with so he has to leave Phil where he is.

When he leaves, he absolutely takes Phils heart with him. He wouldn't dare leave it.

In regards to what happened on Phil's side.. he's not all gone, but it's arguably worse. The ritual only going partially right has left this soul in a sort of limbo, unaware and waiting for something he doesn't know will never come. With no physical body to return to, he remains. And though he can't see where he is, and doesn't quite know who he is, he knows something is missing. Someone.

Dans life post-ritual is something I want to touch on ALOT more than I have. I believe he and craftie Phil became codependent due to necessity thoughout the years, with being locked up and practicing carefully done rituals. He never really adjusts to being by himself. 15 years of Phil rattling on about something in his ear and suddenly it's replaced with nothing but rumors of police investigations and habits he picked up from him.

My most recent art regarding this au, a bloodied phil looking up from a dark red pool, is regarding nightmares I absolutely think craftie Dan gets. Trusted with Phil's life to bring Him back and failing and never ever recovering from the emotional turmoil. Sure, it may get a little better, but it'll never truly fade. He will be on the run forever.

At its core, intricacies aside, Failed Ritual, to me, is an au about grief. A bone deep grief and sense of anguish that will leave you haunted forever by your semidead cultist partner. You never really recover from that.

This au is also totally moldable to whatever someone's specific vision of a 'failed ritual dapc', I'm down to hear literally ANYTHING anyone wants to say because it's nearly been a yr since dapc has returned (and been put to rest) and I miss them really really badly everyday of my life it's agony like I miss dapc so badly oh mygod help help help he- (gets shot)

[yuukei-yikes]

aauuuhhhhhggghhh i feel so bad for kano ........ as someone who Has gone to therapy and has Many disorders and also related very strongly to kano as a kid (funnily enough takane/ene also. takane and kano were my faves of all time.) i can very assuredly say that sometimes even if you ARE going to therapy and even if you WANT to get better sometimes all it can be is a bandaid if you don't have the right situation/aren't ready to change the situation...

like it's really not a cure-all. it's like what if you were in a box, and your doctor had to treat you by 1) relying on you for accurate descriptions of your problems, where things hurt, what color the injury is, how extensive it is.... 2) identifying accurately what might be wrong, 3) describing what you need to be able to heal yourself, and 4) giving you advice and then instructions on how to get all that equipment necessary and perform the treatment yourself, cause they really Can't be in your brain. and not only that but sometimes you yourself won't think there's a Problem or that something Isn't A Big Deal when it is and you just won't think to mention it... anyway my mom (licenced therapist) always says therapists are like professional interrogators more than anything. and kano is a Professional Liar. so even if he IS going to therapy i can see a million places that would break down

ok sorry for the therapy ramble but anyway it's Very much a leap of faith and it can see him being really nervous to actually take that leap, much less actually ADMIT he's afraid of taking it.... there's a certain amount of wanting to get better that goes into therapy but there's ALSO a certain amount of willingness to be hurt by Every Single Thing You've Been Hurt By Before in order to process and get better from it, and it is honestly REALLY REALLY HARD especially without actual interpersonal supports..... when u had him actually confide in kido i nearly cried because that to me felt like one of the biggest steps he was able to take in a Long While... and that they were still mad at shintaro on his behalf ever since!!

oh boy. oh boy this is getting really long but uh. um. yeah even therapy is really really hard and an act of trust in and of itself, and. i don't blame kano for what he's going through at all not even a little bit. i want to give him some good friends, this last update was absolutely devastating. every shred of pride and even the little pedestal he kept ayano on. just. shattered. that's the kind of situation where if i saw that happen to my friend id follow them home to make sure they're ok and make them dinner or something. augh. augh. ok rant over sorry thank you for the comic 😭👍✨

this is so interesting and definitely a lot more eloquent than i'd ever be able to put together as a hater of therapy myself (ok well not hater. i haven't been lucky LMAO)

i did keep thinking about kano going to therapy and i imagine the kind of stuff he'd say or how he'd act... i actually think in this Kagefuture Universe, the fact he even goes is because ayano insists. i think ayano's on therapy herself or sees a psychiatrist, i definitely think she's medicated. like she did in fact kill herself. and she did it in front of kano so it's no wonder she'd ask him CONSTANTLY about how he's doing and talks about her own therapy and asks for contacts to give to him to try it out.

in fact i think at first he probably LIED about going but eventually gives it a try for real and in some form of miracle it's a PERFECT match for him so he goes back. there's a show i like that's called never have i ever and while it's totally unrelated because it's a highschool comedy, the protagonist regularly attends therapy and her therapist is like constantly calling her out and mc gets mad and stops going and then resumes it's like. yeah. something like that i definitely think it's someone who matches his energy. i think miss therapist (yes it's a woman) was a kanoshin truther she was probably like he genuinely sounds really nice :) and kano's like FUUUCK WHAT DO U KNOW UR SUPPOSED TO BE ON MY SIDE

im glad u pointed out when he breaks down on kido because to me that moment was like. idk all the way back to one of the first comics where he fights with shintaro and i wrote "that night kano wondered what all that therapy had been for" is literally ironic because like... kano the fact u could go home and yell at him exactly how u were feeling WAS IN FACT A DIRECT RESULT FROM THERAPY. EXACTLY LIKE HIM CONFIDING IN KIDO... in canon he breaks down on seto, who has to LITERALLY READ HIS MIND!! for it to happen. and also kido complained they're the last one to find out things, and tells kano to confide in them too, they're siblings after all. so... yeah it was a no brainer to me to pick kido to comfort him at some point.

i think this is also why i was thinking maybe he stopped going for a bit in these last few comics, maybe after part 11 or something lol(obv he'll go back) but i think he's like dude i don't even wanna TALK TO ANYONE

I want you to know your fics and Drabbles have inspired me! Especially your designationless reader to the point I have a whole plot line nestling within my head and it is CHAOTIC 😂.

It somehow involves a reincarnated Bell from BO6, the issues that arise with all of that AND dealing with the crippling loneliness bc Bell is once again a designationless person but also not having the support system and care they had in Perseus growing up (and THAT is another bag to unpack later).

I’m somehow throwing in William ‘Crash Out’ ‘Case’ Cauldron in somehow I will. Confrontation with an older Adler who’s somehow alive and also Graves’ dad.

Reincarnated!Bell getting tapped by the secret alphabet agency and met Laswell after several years of working as a black agent and having started at WAY TOO young of an age, and toward the end of ‘retirement’ it ends with a shit show of such epic proportions it got buried and makes the events of Cold War and BO6 look like a good dream, getting into a fist fight with a surprisingly strong geriatric (Adler) and a HEAVILY redacted file to the point that it’s mostly just sharpie.

Bell ends up in the 141.

May god help them all.

I also wanna throw in an angst thing down the line after Bell bonds with the team and maybe there’s traitor accusations and Bell GTFO of dodge before she could be captured and interrogated bc the trauma of being interrogated by people you bonded with is very much there and then they links up again with a rogue black ops team like it’s BO6. And then it’s a process of them clearing their name, taking out the enemy, and also wreaking havoc bc Case is there and that duo is terrifying.

Some highlights:

-Bell still has their same face (Adler’s reaction was quite funny)-which they’re happy about.

-Bell is still 5’4 ft of somewhat still brainwashed lethal killer

-Scene where Nikolai compliments their excellent fluency in Russian and Bell only cracks a smile

-gonna be a lot of angst in the perceived betrayal/false traitor arc ngl

-Bell needs a hug in this entire story not just the above arc

-Bell has beaten each and every single member of the 141 in the sparring ring. They don’t know it, but Bell ALWAYS held back in training.

-They quickly find out how much Bell held back during the false traitors arc.

-Bell’s name eventually gets cleared and they had sent Laswell and the 141 and GRAVES critical intel

-As for how it ends…

-it started and ended at Solovetsky, the first time. And maybe it ends there again.

I’m ngl I only know the names here lmao i’ve never been interested in the other games that don’t have the 141 in them 😭😭 but you’ve got whole, wonderful plot so I say go for writing it!!

First of all, hello, beautiful

Warmest wishes for a speedy recovery!!! It's always terrible to get sick. Get well soon!

«... I continued writing the Tattoo, the angel/devil and began a DJ/Barkeeper and will continue to do so. Maybe I'll even start the baby au (I wanted to start that when I have finally uploaded Tattoo and magic)». AAAA! My beautiful baby AU (I gave myself away, didn't I?).  I can't wait to see him (* mention that I'm still kissing your hands*). But that's not really why I'm here.

«I once again showed my friends Vale and Marc and they called Vale ugly. I showed different photos. They still called him ugly and me tasteless (I think I need to cry) They also called him the straightest motherfucker alive.»

WHAAAT? I do not know, maybe everyone has different eyes, but I absolutely sincerely want to note that I knew what Valentino looked like even before I became seriously interested in motogp, and he was always hot as fuck (at that time, I didn't like him very much because of the story with Marс, the baby really didn't like that someone so beautiful and legendary was insulting her Marс😭). Even now, when he has aged a lot (hello, Grandpa!👋) He's still sooo attractive + there's such a thing as charisma, and I saw the name on Wikipedia, and there's a picture of Vale there, so it turns out he came up with it. Therefore, here. Please don't cry. Art is not meant for everyone. Hug you tight, goodbye.

(«the straightest motherfucker alive» It doesn't need any comments. He ate Marc with his eyes in every imaginable and fictional pose, two hundred times, and that's just at a press conference + lesbian bob era =  the obvious bi vibe. this man values sex too much to waste his resources like that. I can guarantee that he definitely tried it.)

OH YOU AGAIN HELLOOO

Ahhh thx <3

And even if you're not here for that, I still wanna gift you something for the wonderful and heartwarming ask(s)

Yes, to everything you said btw, especially the last sentence like *chefskiss* YES!!!!! So true so true. Luckily, I could at least corrupt one of them (He is in the middle of the process to being introduced to motogp through Marc&Vale lmao)

And here the little something I got (first glimpse onto the baby au)

Luca stares at the screen of his phone. Lifts his glare again and stares at Vale, who right now blows at her face under loud laughter from two. Lowers it to stare back at his screen again.  

“Vale.”, he calls for his brother. “Yeah Fratellino?”, the older replies without even turning around to him. “Why does you the internet goes crazy about a picture of you and your daughter?”, Luca asks him, raising an eyebrow and waiting curious for the excuse that will surely follow. Vale only shrugs. “Because she is a sweet angel that deserves every bit of attention on this world?”  

Luca exhales slowly and pinches the bridge of his nose. “No, why do they have a picture of you with her, three days after her birth was announced. Does Marc even know about this?” Vale rocks back and forth, swinging her in his arms. “Sure, he does. I think everyone has seen it by now.”  

The younger has to remember once again to keep breathing. Calmly. In and out.  

Then he opens his eyes once more.  

“And why did you decide to do that out of nowhere?”, he questions, swearing himself it will be the last thing he will ask, for the sake of his own sanity. For the first time in this talk, Vale actually shifts his attention towards him, to grin at him. “Because it makes fun watching them.”  

Luca slowly blinks at him. But Vale has already gone back to admiring his beautiful daughter and doesn’t pay attention towards him anymore.
