this is what scaea looks like rn. i like the look in general but im going to be changing up her colour scheme Considerably for a few reasons but mostly because she is way too tethras esque rn, which is incredibly distracting and she would hate it. so she might look quite different shortly but i expect to keep the general vibe. weâll see how that goes :)
#she needs to be silver coded instead of gold coded i think?#weâll put a few hours into mindlessly spinning her in the black emporium#and see what comes out the other side#scaea cadash

Wow I have been nonstop thinking about tennis king yuuta and his little baby boy Iâm going to kill you (affectionate) - @yuutito
teeheeeeeeeeeâŠ.. hereâs some more, aleks :â) enjoy :))))))
âEverybody thinks he looks like me, but I donât see it that way. Maybe itâs because every time I look at him, I see my wife and Iâm reminded of her [âŠ] Iâm a little biased so I see her in everything.âÂ
You find yourself with tears welling in your eyes the more you read into Yuutaâs latest magazine interview. Between his sweet quotes and the pictures of him with your son, itâs taking everything in you not to burst into full-blown tears.Â
Your boys look so handsome. You and Yuuta shared your concerns with publicizing your child at such a young age, but you two came to the conclusion that youâd rather have the control in the narrative than to let private family pictures be leaked uncontrollably. As another point of reassurance, Yuutaâs career provided him with just enough lime-light to be a household name without the crazy fame and criticism that came along being a true celebrity. BesidesâYuuta talked enough about you and your son in press conferences and interviews that it was bound to happen sooner rather than later.Â
The article wasnât entirely about you, or your familyâor at least, youâre sure it wasnât intended to be; you knew your husband had a knack for rambling about his loved ones, even where work was concerned. As you continue to read, you find a segment where the author compared Yuutaâs current statements with something similar heâd said about you twelve years agoâat the very start of his professional career: âIf I owe this [winning Gold] to anybody, itâs my girlfriend. Sheâs always believed in me, even when I didnât believe in myself. I wouldnât have qualified or even thought to qualify if it werenât for her.âÂ
It feels like you and Yuuta were just two kids in love back then. You didnât think it could be more than thatâyou didnât think you could love Yuuta more than you did all those years ago, but somewhere along the way just being in love wasnât enough to describe it; Yuuta became your partner, someone you loved fundamentally, but also because you couldnât stand to see yourself without him. And just when you thought you couldnât love anyone nearly as much as you love him, you turn the page to a picture of your husband and son peeping through the holes of a racket and your heart feels full.Â
When you scan the image more closely, you realize that it isnât just any racketâitâs an old one, one youâd given to Yuuta as a gift probably back in high-school. You had no idea heâd kept it, but you suppose you shouldnât be all that surprised; Yuuta is nothing if not sentimental.Â
âAh, there she is~â Yuutaâs voice cuts through your thoughts. When you turn, you see him, with your baby boy on his hip, sliding the back porch door closed.Â
Both boys approach you with a smile on your face, and you set the magazine aside to sit up in the lounge chair to greet them. Yuuta presses a kiss to your forehead, then your lips before you do the same to your son. Immediately after, he reaches his arms out for you, and Yuuta chuckles, âYou wanna be with your mama? Canât blame you, I missed her, too.âÂ
He hands the baby off to you, and takes a seat on the other end of the chair, reaching over to coo at his son as you smother his face in kisses.Â
âHow was the farmerâs market?â you question, letting the baby settle into your lap.Â
âGood, he picked out some very bright peppers, and we got some more strawberries, know youâve been craving them,â Yuuta smiles, reaching over to pat your sonâs head, when the closed magazine catches his eye, and he reaches for it, quickly flipping through, âAhâI guess that interviewâs out. Heâs grown so much, even though it was only a few months ago.âÂ
You find the blush on his cheeks beyond endearing. Yuuta always finds room to be bashful no matter how many times heâs waxed poetic about his love for you, or his familyâhis cheeks always stain pink like the first day you met him.Â
âItâs sweet. Youâre sweet,â you smile, sparing a hand to run through Yuutaâs hair, charmed by the way he leans into your touch, âI didnât know you still had that racket.âÂ
âOf course, I keep everything you give me,â he says, earnestly. He closes the magazine and scoots a little closer, taking advantage of the proximity and of your touch to lay his head on your shoulder, âDid you⊠read all of it?âÂ
âAlmost, but no, why?â you question, with a light-hearted grin, âDid you say something that would lead the world to believe youâre somehow even more in love with me? Because you might already be past the threshold, dear.âÂ
Yuuta hums. He reaches to take you son out of your lap and carefully shifts himself to that heâs laying down, his head on your lap, and the baby in his arms, happily giggling and cooing as Yuuta holds him up. He lowers and raises him back and forth a few times, nuzzling their noses together when their faces are close, before sitting him up on his chest.
Then he tilts his head up to look at you, wide, love-filled eyes blinking slowly before he says, âMaybe⊠depends on if me saying I want more kids is past the threshold or not.âÂ
#answered#this is like... set before the press conference drabble and interview is like when the baby is maybe 9mos?#and comes out when baby boy is just shy of 1 year teehee#yuuta my wife my wife my wife okkotsu#has plenty of gold medals around his neck in pictures and the quotes are still oh i love my wife ~~~#SICK!!!! I NEED HIM!!#he would enjoy this level of fame i think bc he gets to yap to the whole word about his family#but then its still chill yk? like paparazzi dont stalk him people dont follow him and interrupt his day#he just gets to do what he loves and have enough money to support his family#and come back to you and your baby every day... dream life for him#also not pictured bc money and power is attractive sorry: the back porch door opens to the lounge/porch ofc#but beyond that pls imagine a regulation size tennis court#and all the expensive tennis accuoutrements one might need#see also also on the OTHER side of the backyard: the regulation size swimming pool that you dont need but yuuta thinks the kid(s) should#learn to swim... also for gojo LOLOLLLL#yuuta x reader#yuuta.ask#tennis au

Poppy for N2 au, it took me so long to make her design cuz I didn't really know what I wanted to do only because I feel like her design is pretty perfect.
But then I just thought about fun outfits to give her or outfits that I would find comfortable if I was wearing them and it all came together.
Poppy here is pretty much the same as here movie counterpart, as nothing really changes on her end of things other than having more insight on Branch through his brothers, and through Lief. Shes also a bit more understanding a bit earlier on because of it but it doesnt do much to change her own character arc I would say.
Bonus
Part of Poppys design was based off a design I had made for previous rulers of Troll Village/Tree
Namely Queen Protea who I designed as Poppys grandmother
Named after the Protea flower which part of her design is based off :D
In the context of this Au Protea was the one who conceptualized the tunnels while her son, King Peppy, was the one to follow through after her death
#my art#dreamworks trolls#trolls#trolls 3#trolls au#trolls band together#trolls branch#trolls poppy#trolls oc#trolls oc lief#trolls oc protea#its really hard to mess with poppy at least in the context of this au cuz like i said nothing really changes on her end#whats changed in this au was just stuff on Branchs side of things#Poppy can witness these things but she herself isnt really changed by them#she of course would have more insight on Branchs life through his brothers and the addition of Lief as a character#but idk if that would fully change her approach with him other than what ive displayed#where shed try to relate to branch rather than trying to force him to relate to her#which would then most likely make her more understanding going forward than she was in canon#im still figuring her out#also since im in the tags and nobody really reads this#i feel brave enough to say#that secretly#ive been kind of sort of#posting a fanfic of this au under the name not the only one#on ao3#and thats where Protea comes from#its not well written in the slightest#but its just for fun and practice so in my mind it doesnt really have to be entirely#but i am having fun with it#so if you see this and check it out please be so very nice to me please

I know Mickey said he likes them sweet in season 1 and yes this is mostly true because Ian can be very sweet particularly in the early seasons.
but also Mickey never wouldâve been so down bad for Ian from the get go if Ian wasnât also a bit of a messy asshole who was able to give as good as he got and was just as flawed and fucked up as Mickey. and Ian wouldnât have been as interested in Mickey if Mickey wasnât also the messy asshole he was. Ian was immediately smitten with the wild angry guy in front of him.
I mean they literally started fucking because they were beating each other up and got turned on by it.
#mickey milkovich#shameless#ian gallagher#gallavich#like I said before the reason theyâre perfect for each other is because they are both as fucked up as each other#another reason why acting like Ian is angel baby cupcakes whoâs done no wrong doesnât make any sense#mickeys hurt by Ianâs actions but is able to forgive him because heâs always known Ian isnât perfect#and vice versa#and he LIKES that Ian isnât perfect. he doesnât want that it would never work for him#it also kinda connects to why Ian is desperate for a normal relationship after he comes back from being with Monica#but why none of them ever worked out because what drew him to Mickey in the first place was Mickeyâs darkness#see my post about Ianâs other relationships for more info about that#I feel like Mickey was endeared by Ianâs sweetness but what sealed the deal for him was Ianâs dark side#ian was smitten with mickeys wildness and anger and violence from the get go#but fell for his softer side all the same#but he doesnât want one without the other#hence: âI want the shit talking piece of south side trash I fell forâ#and âI donât do normal Gallagherâ. âme neitherâ#Ian in the later seasons still struggles with letting go of the idea of a ânormalâ relationship#but any time Mickey is his usual fucked up self Ian canât help but be like đ„°#shameless meta#gallavich meta#meta#again idk if this is even meta

i feel like im not making any sense but does anyone else feel like there are stories that let u run with them and ones that spell everything out for you
#im reading that post that says artists are directors of audience reaction and not its dictator:#'you cannot guarantee that everyone viewing your work will react as you are trying t make them react. a good artist knows that this is what#allows work to breath. by definition you cannot have art where the viewer brings nothing to the table ... this is why you have to let go of#the urge to plainly state in text exactly how you think the work should be interpreted ... its better to be misinterpreted sometimes than#to talk down to your audience. you wont even gain any control that way; people will still develop their opinions no matter what you do#im thinking abt this again cuz i was thinking maybe the thing that lets adventure time work so well the way it does is cuz it doesnt#take itself too seriously that it gives the audience enough room to fuck with subtext and then fuck with them back yknow. i think it was#mentioned somewhere that they werent even planning to run with the postapocalyptic elements that are hinted in the show but changed their#mind after the one off with the frozen businessmen and dominoed into marcy and simons backstory. on the other side there are stories that#explain too much to let the story speak for itself and i think it ends up having to do more with the crew trying to lead ppl in a certain#direction than expand on what they have and i see a lot of this with miraculous. like when interviews and tweets are used as word of god in#arguments and it becomes a little stifling to play around with it knowing the creator can just interject. u can say its the crews effort to#engage with its audience but it feels more like micromanaging. and none of this is to say there ISNT room for stories that spell things out#theyre just suited for different things. if sesame street tried abstract approaches to themes and nuance itd be counterproductive#a lot of things fly over my head so i need help picking things apart to get it- but it doesnt have to be from the story itself. ive picked#picked up or built on my own interpretations listening to other ppl share their thoughts which creates conversation around the same thing#sometimes stories will spell things out for you without being so obvious abt it that it feels like its woven into the text. my fav example#for this might be ATLA using younger characters as its main cast but instead of feeling like its dumbed down for kids to understand why war#is bad its framed from a childs point of view so younger audiences can pick up on it by relating to the characters. maybe an 8 year old#wont get how geopolitics works but at least they get 'hey the world is a little more complicated than everyone vs. fire nation'. same for#steven universe bc its like theyre trying to describe and put feelings into words that kids might not have so they have smth to start with#especially with the metaphors around relationships bc even if it looks unfamiliar as a kid now maybe the hope is for it to be smth you can#look back to. thats why it feels like these shows grew up with me.. instead of saving difficult topics for 'when im ready for it'#as if its preparing me for high school it gave me smth to turn in my hands and revisit again and again as i grow. stories that never#treated u as dumb all along. just someone who could learn and come back to it as many times as u need to. i loved SU for the longest time#but i felt guilty for enjoying it hearing the way ppl bash it. bc i was a kid and thought other ppl understood it better than me and made#feel bad for leaning into the message of paying forward kindness and not questioning why steven didnt punish the diamonds or hold them#accountable. but im rewatching it now and going oh. i still love this show and what it was trying to teach me#yapping#diary

One of my favorite things about bkdk is how easily they fall into just about any AU
And Hori gave us so many to work with, winter and fantasy and pirates and steampunk and dragon riders and even band AUâs, and more and I just realized
It doesnât matter what world you put bkdk in, it works because the chemistry is there in canon
#idk how to say it any better#bkdk works no matter what works you put them in#and that makes the fandom experience so much richer and more exciting#bkdk#bakudeku#they are at the actual top of my OTPs#it doesnât get better thank bkdk#and it makes me feel so sad for the haters who canât see past surface level#or let a character grow and change and redeem themselves#because I promise bkdk is so much more thank a bulky and a victim#and itâs beautiful on this side of the fence#come on in the waters perfect#Katsuki and Izuku as characters are so fleshed out and complex and interesting#so their stories end up being fleshed out and complex and interesting and beautiful#I just finished a personal chef/nanny AU that was incredible#then saw the author also had a band AU that I canât wait to read#and I just feel so lucky to get to be a part of this#bkdk is so much bigger than any other ship Iâve loved

if 9&10 were "dont wander off", and 11&12 were "the doctor lies", 13s rule #1 is "dont question me"
"have we not had a good time together" shes pointing yaz to the rule that yaz very well knows is there: we can travel if you dont ask me any difficult questions. yaz knows this is the rule - "because you ask too many questions", "this team structure isnt flat" - but she also was the one to invite the doctor into her home so im pretty sure she also knows shes not gonna kicked out that easily. she has some leeway. which she has been using between revolution and flux, which is why the doctor reminds her of the rules
i dont think she'd kick her out though. she wouldnt. i think it's just that the more you break the rule, the more unpleasant she becomes to be around, and eventually youre gonna walk out on your own. she doesnt want you to, she'd rather you stay and dont ask questions. but if youre gonna try to ask questions anyway, i think thats whats gonna happen
and yaz must think so too. because she does back off. because she doesnt want that to happen either. and it does anyway
#dont question me/dont challenge me. questions are the sore spot but the challenge is one she says explicitly once#because you see this in how she is with other people too. dont try her patience. dont act like shes smaller. dont challenge her or Die#based on the giggle - 'i thought i was clever' 'what do i say?! because im always sooo certain' - i dont think 14 is like this#also based on the expressions of affection#hes not that......reactive. to this. specific thing#so i wonder if it runs over to 15#he seems chill. i think? he seems fairly chill. but also i think we've so far only seen him mostly in control of things#faced with the maestro temporarily not entirely in control hes Notably Less Chill#but still bigger picture. hes mostly in control of things right now i think#or uhhhh based on how eager he seems to get out of the role of doctor#hmmmmm#13 didnt want it but like. was stuck with it i think#didnt want it but nobody else was gonna do it. thats why 12 regenerated#15 comes out 14 Literally Quitting#he doesnt want it and hes decided hes not stuck with it. maybe#none of this is true btw im just saying words recreationally#like those 13 moments are super cherrypicked and i havent rewatched in forever so#dont believe me gfkjghgjh#this is based more on how i write them than what ive seen basically#anyway in terms of 14/yaz i think it takes yaz a while to figure out how to deal with 14 Not being like this#bc she got soooo practiced at handling 13. most of which was abt like not tripping this rule too much#she'd keep it up with 14 and he'd just do stuff that like breaks the rule from his side and yaz wouldnt have any idea how to deal with it#he'd show her hes chilled out a bit. about this. over and over and it'd still take her moooooonthssssssss to start relaxing#just muscle memory at this point. doesnt help that shes also like this#i wonder if 14 - in a sort of compelte reversal - wants to be told what to do and how to do and#seeks out situations where someone else knows more than him so he can sit down and say 'teach me'#i think thats what he does. about all the human stuff. hes like teach me. all of it. show me how to do this

I would call that a suicide tbh. I don't think what Penny (or Pyrrha, or Yang, or Hazel,) did counts, since it wasn't "I want to die" and more "I have to die for people to win.".
Ruby wanted to die. Huge difference. As far as she and the other characters know, she pretty blatantly just committed suicide. After being tortured and told over and over and over that the world is better off without her.
Fuck, man. Of all the characters they could have had for a scene like that, Ruby is by far the most gut wrenching.
#rwby#rwby spoilers#rwby volume 9#rwby volume 9 spoilers#now. obviously i dont think shes actually dead or gonna lose memories or anything like that#idk what i do think is going to happen#but a reset on her character wouldnt really make narrative sense. imo. so i think shes gonna go through the tree#probably see summer and all that#and then come out the other side as her#with the understanding she'll never be the same girl again. and that she HAS to move forward.

Unfamiliar showers

idk about anyone else but this seasons opening emergency really has reminded me why I fell in love with this show in the first place. like fandom can truly taint the joy of just enjoying and loving your fave tv show. idc care about ship wars or who should be kissing who. just give me the drama and the angst. give me character development and meaningful relationships. give me comedy and silliness. i just want to enjoy the show that i love and share my love with others.
#donât get me wrong Iâm still gonna be rooting for bucktommy and all the potential they have but like#Iâm so tiredddddd of all the hate and the negativity and the vile shit that comes with shipping#I just want to enjoy this dumb weewoo show#see my fave characters go through it and come out the other side wiser and happier#I want to talk head canons and theories of what is going to happen#and I know thst with no Tommy this episode bad side of the fandom are just going to amp up the vileness and hate even more#anyway iâve said my piece#911#911 discourse#911 abc#911 spoilers#bucktommy

i like ghostflower (hell I draw fanarts for them) but Iâve decided I like the version of them in my head more and will just stay away from the fandom in general cuz Iâve seen some discussion and they just make me go âwhat on earth are yâall onâ đđđđ
#âmiles will immediately forgive gwen when he sees sheâs gathered a whole team to save him WHAT#heâll save himself first then befriend Miles G. and Miles G. will start hissing like the cats when that team comes and Miles looks upset#like I firmly believe miles will only talk to Hobie and Margo after all that cuz they r the two that stand by his side thru whole that#like that take is so insane when Hobie is the reason Miles can run away in the first place and Margo risks everything to allow Miles leaving#AND HE KNOWS#u donât even need a scale to see who Miles will associate with safety and protection more after atsv#also âmiles keep getting up after heâs beaten down cuz that what Gwen told him to do in itsv is ALSO insane cuz WHAT#the thing she said when she and others were berating and crowding Miles for not knowing how to be Spider-Man just FEW DAYS after heâs bitten#??????#THAT THING????#not his momâs words or his uncleâs or idk THATâS HOW HE IS???#*walk in the tag* *walk out immediately*#u donât have to make them the only person in each otherâs life to prop the ship up especially in this case cuz it makes no sense đ#actually the first point srl piss me off cuz that team was only possible in the first place cuz of Hobie and Margo and Miles laying#the groundwork by just being a sweetheart he is#charming and inspiring ppl so ofc these kids will rally behind him and team up to save him#ykno LIKE IN THE COMIC TOO???#ppl just have to take the only thing I donât like in the movie (miles suddenly obsessed over Gwen when they didnât even interact that much#in itsv) and magnify it x100 in fandom#if she ainât a gremlin girl that is trying her best to regain Milesâ trust but itâs a slow process and Miles needs space and time first then#I donât want it

I love singNsong again reminding people in Side Story that Dokja wanted other people to read TWSA (he wrote reviews and comments! It was his first wish), and he only stopped bothering because people harassed him for it. He didn't gate-keep the story. When he's avoiding talking to Sangah about it at the beginning of ORV, it's because he knows what happens when he tells people about the story, not because he's gate-keeping it from her. He notes he's not proud of his hobby (likely because he's been bullied all through his life, including for reading the thing he loves): he finds it embarrassing to talk about, and better respects her studying Spanish in her free time (learning another language is a generally accepted thing in society). He assumes she won't care or will look at him funny (or worse) for when she learns about the novel he's into.
Basically anyone writing "let's gatekeep ORV" posts because of the anime announcement or because they dislike the manhwa or some other weirdness, y'all are the villains in the scenario.
The literal climax of the story is about sharing ORV with as many people as possible. What story were y'all reading?
#orv#really tired of the stupid gate-keepy bs in some parts of this fandom#omniscient reader's viewpoint#kim dokja#side story spoilers#it's been quite fascinating seeing novel fanatics come out of the woodwork against potential anime fans#while showing how much they hate the manhwa and manhwa fans too#the only actual official English translation we have is the manhwa#acting like we're all in this together like no#I adore the novel and the manhwa#and folks who started with the manhwa or just happen to also like the manhwa but also like the novel see you for what you are#avoiding talking about something is not gatekeeping#it's often recognizing various social cues#like oh this person probably isn't familiar and I don't care to explain#or I'm worried they'll treat me badly if they know#when you're trying to connect with someone you tend to look for things you share not stuff you don't#if Dokja heard about people trying to gatekeep orv he would be disgusted#also NOT gatekeeping orv is literally the climax of the story I am so deeply confused by people encouraging gatekeeping of it#you're making han suyeong mad#she didn't nearly kill herself writing orv in order to share it to everyone they could find so people could gatekeep it#that is literally the opposite of the goal#it's not bad to ask if folks have read the novel because for a variety of reasons folks may not have#but it is bad to act like reading the novel is a fandom requirement especially given all we have is a fantranslation using MTL#or you must love the novel above others or the novel only#I want singnsong to get fucking rich from this story they shared and which I and many adore#gatekeeping does not make that happen#also good luck getting people to buy the Yen Press novel translation when it comes out when you act like this#the manhwa is available in at least seven languages officially fuck off with this gatekeeping crap#don't get me started how a lot of y'all don't even know what twatf is and a good chunk of y'all who won't even touch it when you do know#and that doesn't exactly bother me but it does bug me when book purists get all high and mighty

I know we skirt around and sometimes talk about the ~trauma~ of it all, but I think seeing how loudly Taylor and Travis support each other on main (while still carving out a private life together) really starts to illuminate to an even clearer degree how many of Taylor's choices and actions were a response to all of ~that~ in the last decade or so (and particularly since 2016).
Again, which is not to say it's all bad, and many of them were choices she needed to make at the time for her own health and I'm sure there are some things from the time period she's continued to keep with her, but it's just really striking that she's, like, in full bloom now. And as a lot of people here are saying, she's probably more like herself these days than she'd been in the last decade. It's getting to the point (at least for me) that sometimes I can't even imagine her the way she was in the last few years because she just seems soooooo much more comfortable in her own skin. Which is silly, because that was as much her as the person she is now, she is an amalgamation of all those parts of her (just like any other person is).
But you just see *how much* she just loves so freely -- not just romantically but in everything she does -- and it's even sadder to think about how she felt like she had to slice off all these parts of her and like she had to accept a certain way of living (and being loved) in order to survive and have a life of her own.
I'm just really happy for her that she seems to be healing every passing day and is just embracing everything coming her way.
ok gonna word vomit more in the tags
#like i'm just trying not to drag certain people too much because really what's past is past etc lol#but it's just like... seeing how she's come out the other side in the last 10 months#I can't even picture her being locked away in her house and agreeing to be kept like a secret by ANYONE#and again it's not that it was all bad (e.g. with j*e) -- i have no doubt that the privacy was something she craved in 2016#and that it probably started off as a relief to her#but I can't picture her in a relationship at this point in her life where her partner won't even say her name in public#and where she goes to extreme degrees to not appear with them#(ahem EVEN WHEN THEY'RE AT THE SAME FESTIVAL)#and navigating that 24/7#and the fuck of it all is that it wasn't even just one relationship like that! There were multiple!#and like not to psychoanalyze or whatever lol#but the whole 'you accept the love you think you deserve' of it all#and maybe it's like she felt this extreme privacy to the point where they publicly almost couldn't acknowledge they existed#was the only way it was possible to have any kind of home life#idk idk i'm having a lot of feelings on her behalf#i guess the tl;dr is that i feel like because of all the things that happened to her#she made choices that i don't think she'd be making at this point
