something I've been wondering, and not sure if it's been discussed anywhere…. what name do you suppose the emperor used to introduce himself to stelmane? 🤔

I need you to know, this question completely delights me, especially because I've thought a lot about it (also I apologize pre-emptively because this definitely went beyond the scope of your question but... hey I'll never pass up an opportunity to talk about Stelmane or the Emperor's relationship to her)

we know through some documents found throughout the game (specifically a journal found in the Hhune mausoleum) that the Emperor was introduced to at least some members of the Shield, but there's never been anything concrete as to how it and Stelmane first met. I'm of a few minds on the subject--I think it's incredibly likely that the Emperor followed her for some time before it made itself known to her, in order to assess how she might handle meeting it face to face, and gauge its safety in revealing itself

but, I also think that the Emperor always did really want an actual equal (... insomuch as a human can be to it) partner and companion to work and share its life with. I think it's most likely that the Emperor would have avoided using any name at all (in much that same way that it never gives a name to the player character) and instead probably fed her some information about things that would be useful/beneficial to her as a gesture of goodwill and inclination to work together

Indeed, we learn that the name "Emperor" was only really given to it some time into its tenure in the Shield, so it very well might not have had one at all at the time it met her (I'm certain it wouldn't have gone by Balduran, especially after what happened with Ansur). So that's a very interesting question! Oh to pick its mind and learn if it ever had any means of self identification before/during/after that (or if it ever might in the future, though I do agree with it, the Emperor is about as top tier a name as you can get)

#the emperor #bg3 #clearly the answer is John Baldur/jk #also thank you #I truly hope I am known as the Stelmane guy #it's everything I could have ever wanted #also thinking on it #I'd be shocked if it ever actually introduced itself to any members of the shield by name #I think it knows that it will only ever be viewed as The Mind Flayer #which is a touch depressing tbh but I also think the emperor is practical to a fault and would just accept its lot in life in that regard #I wonder if it was kind of relieving to finally be more or less assigned a name #and at least it was a cool as hell one

Cloud Strife

1 in 3 chance for each played 7 to create a Planet card when scored.

#........clown strife.................#if rebirth+queen's blood proves anything it's that cloud would absolutely get hopelessly addicted to balatro.#ffvii #cloud strife #balatro #my art <3 #my music <3 #ok so. obligatory commentary on the music.#this song isn't in A440! well at least the official version uploaded by louisf certainly isn't #not 100% sure exactly what it is but i approximated it to A446-ish? 446.5? kinda? it's funkyyy #(translated for non music nerds: all of the instruments are tuned sliiiiightly higher pitch than standard tuning)#gives it a ~weird~ vibe. even if just on a subconscious level #i learned a lot about pitch effects from this project actually! including how to cut/copy/paste pitch controls between patterns in FL #which WAS PURE HELL. two hours of my life GONE. because fl studio's piano roll can do everything EXCEPT copy pitch controls. 🤡🔫#so i had to dig through literally DECADES worth of obscure forums just to find a dozen obsolete workarounds and ONE actual solution.#well. at least i know how to do it now lol #boy oh boy... the price of knowledge is steep........#anyway. enjoy the cool jams 😎

43. For the ask game

43: Sexiest person that comes to my mind immediately

going straight for the jugular arent we

#i know it says sexiest but the things i consider sexy are few and far between and i dont even take seriously myself #so i just imagined the coolest thing i coukd think of and it happens to be kaito kid #NO BUT FR his whole character intrigues me like. magician phantom thief that performs heists to lure out the mafia #and gives back every heist target bc hes trying to find one specific gem that grants immortality and glows red in the moonlight #THATS SO COOL MAN COME ON #unfortunately no matter how many times i try to watch dcmk i dont think its smth ill ever be interested in. they poured #all the coolness into this guy and i can live with that i think. its also heartbreaking thinking abt how much fun itd be to explore #his dynamic with conan/shinichi if the author didnt spend so much time making them straight as hell i cant bring myself to look #otherwise i would say franziska von karma.. umm trafalgar law OR nico robin../ and i guess len kagamine #my taste varies between a mix of character design and personality so its not solely based on one thing #ask game #ask #answered #yapping #sona #puppysona #i had at least 2 other ppl send this question in so ill keep this as my answer but also. what does that say abt me if ppl wanna know that #doodles

What's gabriel in this au?

Some loser, probably.

#Gabriel Ultrakill #Rain World Ancients #Ultrakill #Rain World #I CAN POST THIS NOW THAT THE FULL ATTACK IS DONE. NICE pose referenced from Act 1's ending cutscene if that wasn't blatant already #He's as of yet unnamed but I'm working on it. And also somehow not dead. Debatably. It's a crossover AU it's not adhering to RW canon #Anyway very cool style rain world has for its murals! Tried to match it to the best of my ability but my own style definitely bleeds throug #-in places. It happens #ANYWAY the reason why he's an Ancient is just because there seem to be a lot of parallels between Angels in UTKL and Ancients in RW #Both are societies obsessed with remaining free from earthly desire and keeping order; one wishes to ascend and one has already ascended-#-and has to keep it that way lest they feel the wrath of a long-absent god #Looking at the karma murals that represented the deadly sins (ish) kind of solidified that #Plus it means I don't have to take off his helmet which is always a bonus; I don't like unmasking helmeted characters #As a bonus ancients sort of seem birdlike to me? They're meant to look vague but at least two had bird feet so hell yeah. Bird time.#Enough tag talking. Here's the actual sorting tags:#Re: Inbox #Re: Anon #RW UTKL #Hrokkall Art

hear me out: divorce ceremonies. divorce cake and divorce outfits. toasts to the uncouple spoken by the Worst Man and Maid of Dishonor (gender neutral). separate piles of gifts for the freshly parted, stuff like nice sheets and Target giftcards and cookbooks. marriage gets to have all this ritual attached to it and by god divorce deserves some of that action

#this would only work for people who are actually planning to be friends or at least neutral following their separation #but like cmon how fuckin funny and cathartic would this be. i would go to a divorce ceremony. fuck i would throw one #something something humor is what gets you through the dark times #something something humor is the reason why court jesters could speak truth to power #why get torn up about your ex when you can throw one last good time party with them where y'all get the closure you need #surrounded by loved ones who support you on your parting of ways #like isn't that sorta beautiful? and awkward as all hell #im not kidding i really think this could be cool. but yeah both members of the uncouple would have to be down with it #if you get it you get it. if you dont then its fine just get divorced the normal way with minimal fanfare (ideally)#divorce #snowswords #i am once again divorceposting #it will happen again

his sassy little thigh shift with his hands on his hips like he did something (he didn't) (the only one who rlly helped was laserbeak pretty much LOL) and then awkwardly going back to join the celebration just so he can stand there awkwardly and continue to do nothing

#he just stood like that while everyone celebrated even before soundblaster and his gang showed up to freeze time like #he is so 😭😭😭 awkward #but he can at least try and get away with it by looking cool #or by being mean so ppl see him as this one-upping bully and not the lame nerd tryhard jock he rlly is #hes so cute to me #i like how no one started cheering until he played victory music like they just snapped back into reality what the hell is going on #oh look soundwaves doing a gay little pose. maybe this mean-(stupid music plays) YIPPEEE!!!!#he looks like a proud mother and Is a proud mother. actually #he didnt rlly get his lick back personally but at least he still has his glorious thighs i guess 😭#soundwave #tf cyberverse #cyberverse soundwave #transformers #maccadam #massive magnitude cuntquake

Can you tell us your the reasons for why you like Papyrus? (I’m sure you’ve did this before xd, but I always enjoyed rambles about Papyrus. Hope you’re well!)

oh it is 100% his whole loneliness thing. growing up i was a chronic friend group hopper all the way from kindergarten to 8th grade and then by high school that didn't work anymore so i just kinda didn't have any genuine friends for basically that entire 4 years. so hyperfixating so hard on a character who's basically completely centered around that struggle helped me feel a bit less hopeless about it. the funny thing is i think pre-undertale papyrus actually had more friends than i did back then but like its the little things

that's why this fic that i'm gonna plug again hit me so hard tbh. shit sucks when you're trying so so hard to be friendly and engage in other people and then you get to a point where you have to realize they're not at all interested in returning the favor, even if they're not overtly rude about it or anything, they just don't care to get to know you any deeper than surface level convenience and it gets real hard to not let yourself get angsty about it lmao

i do think that while sometimes i wish i hadn't been given such free internet access as a kid i'm still really lucky that i was able to be exposed to undertale when i was. it's such a unapologetically hopeful game that i'm sure it absolutely impacted the way that i think about things today in terms of optimism and the ability to turn bad situations around, and papyrus plays a huuuge part of that entire message. if it weren't for him, i'm honestly not sure if i would've had the drive to keep trying to connect with other people even when it didn't work for so long.

so tl;dr thank you funny little skeleton man for constantly reminding me that making friends is still possible even when your demeanor is frankly weird as fuck. sometimes you just gotta keep truckin until you find your people even if it takes a while

#trousled rambles #emphasis on rambles #ew this is sappy as hell who put this on my blog dont read this ewwwwwwwww #btw now that i'm in college i finally ended up with a group of friends who actually make me feel like they want me around regularly #so it really is possible i promise :> yeah i woulda liked if it happened sooner but i've never had this many friends before in my lifeee #that being said do u know how annoying it was to hear those fuckers thought i was cool in high school but were too scared to talk to me #i was wearing the same 3 black hoodies every day and used to have a keychain with enough charms that could probably be a weapon if needed #i was a LOSER just TALK TO MEEEE #i'm not gonna act like i was nearly as outgoing as papyrus bc i kept to myself a lot especially in my senior year #and that's because papyrus did not cure 12 years of social anxiety/isolation. but at least he helped me be less emo about it yknow #for a while i actually thought The Loneliness didnt effect me as bad as it did him but tbh i was just repressing that shit lmao #man when the 10 year undertale anniversary comes around we're all gonna be destroyed huh. it will definitely kill me #anyway thank u toby fox for showing 11y/o me that things could work out if i just didnt give up. also make papyus the knight pls ok byeee #oh edit one more thing i havent quiiite psychoanalyzed myself or her enough for me to be certain of this yet but #im pretty sure this is also why i am very drawn to susie in deltarune. lonely skeleton but a blunt teenage girl instead like okayyyy

#Not a post against Caitlyn I love that woman #But I love her and so it's obvious she's gone a bit batshit insane after her mother died #With the chemical warfare vi and the rest of the squad were complacent #And maybe it would have been fine if they did it in a controlled amount but isn't it implied that they've been gassing the whole #Underground? Or at least a good part of people who aren't Jinx #And the only person to stand against Caitlyn becoming general is that one guy Vi drank with #(I'm sorry I don't know his name but I hope we see more of him)#Anyways poor vi and poor jinx and poor everyone and I hope vi and jinx get better #And fucking hell sevika you had one job hunny I love you for everything besides basically pulling the lever #That allowed piltover to now launch a dictatoral storming of your city #Caitvi #arcane season 2 #jinx arcane #vi arcane #caitlyn kiramman #Anyways like jinx said I hope they get to fuck nasty before they both inevitably died #Can you tell I just finished part one?#Sorry I didn't talk about Jay or vik they are so cool here really love vik getting a sense of purpose as becoming #The shimmer abusers' personal jesus #Good for you bud

reading Krakoa era out of order bc reading lists online make it confusing and my local library only has so many books

just as god intended right on my friend you're doing everything right and don't let anyone tell you otherwise

#snap chats #the key to reading comic books isnt to read them in order or even all of them just the ones you like #until eventually someone tells you some wack as hell fact about an issue and then you go read that one #many such cases why do you think i picked up onslaught revelation. cause that fucker is back #why do you think i picked up wolverine number 3 because my beautiful wife is hammered for two pages in it #brother was just talkin to me casually bout onslaught one day and i was like NO FUCKIN WAY thats how you do it !!!!!!!!#like the first krakoa story i read technically was resurrection of magneto followed by the trial of magneto #clearly we see i had an agenda vjALKJKLAJ BUT STILL #it was STILL a really good run ... i could piece together enough of the background before then and really enjoyed it on its own #with that said tho it was very cool/funny to see crumbs Of trial of magneto in way of x #BUT NOW I HAVE LEGION OF X HAHAAAA i cant wait to properly sit and read it ..... after i get through my New Mutants issues ....#i got those a while ago but i kept putting off reading them ... oops ..... i read the first one at least #i was gonna say something but i forgot. oh no i didnt i remember thats what i love about comic books #because theres So Many and so many timelines and stories it invites a lot of community interaction #just to be like 'oh hey did you know This happened in This issue you should check it out'. thats beautiful #even if. its to talk about utter dog shit like she lies with angels BUT STILL ITS COMMUNITY !!!!! we can be lovers AND haters together <3 #its why i love getting physical comics too. i mean i dont have friends or people who visit me LOL #but i like the idea of bringing up what i have and letting people borrow it. community ......
