Going to preface this by saying I love Tailor Astarion, these are just some thoughts I'm having tonight
I don't think Astarion would be able to make garments, beyond eying something he owns and replicating it. I think embroidery served a purpose and it was an outlet that took up minimal space, plus easier to store in a chest. The room the...less favored Spawn share isn't that large. It would just feel smaller as more spawn were introduced to their corner of hell.
It's also one of those cases where I'm not certain if he would genuinely enjoy the craft or not, since it less seems a skill developed with love and more like a necessary skill. It doesn't seem he cares as much for it if he's adventuring (based on his doublet having paint instead of embroidery at the epilogue party), but that also checks out for needing a break from something you did that you enjoyed while in a traumatic situation bc it reminds you of that trauma when you try to get back to it.
But he absolutely knows he is not your guy for anything complicated but would want to pull an Emperor's New Clothes situation for anyone who tried to make him do work for them
#bat plays bg3#i mean i learned to sew in a tiny space hunched over a box that my sewing machine was on#but it's a lot of storage space and hard to hide stuff#and even if youre hand sewing#the project cant just be wadded up and thrown somewhere if you want it to turn out nice#and i am leaning towards thinking Caz wouldnt approve of them having creative outlets at all#like he just seems like he would want them to devote their every waking moment to him#and that just isnt realistic so they can like#hide journals and embroidery and small sketchbooks or other things#like they're severely limited to things they can easily store/hide#so like embroidery served a purpose and was a bit of an outlet that could be hidden and could be explained as serving a purpose by making#him more appealing to potential marks#idk why im thinking abt this so much but here we are#i also imagine cazador had strict control over what skills he allowed them to develop freely#and it was best to either make those skills useful so he didnt impose restrictions OR#keep those skills hidden#and that thought is based specifically on him forbidding the spawn from learning about certain subjects#like you have life eternal and nothing but time to absorb all the knowledge in the world#but this asshat puts these restrictions out#even tho your entire existence is tied to the fact that you cannot harm him or betray him in any way ever#like this would only benefit him#the hubris#but also like if they're a NOBLE family#the things he would look down on as being beneath them#having so many feels in the club tonight#also astarion is allergic to work

"we all agree that jupiter is a bad parent" i mean. i dont
#hes like. to me. quite realistic for a figure in that position#is he perfect? no#is any parent perfect? no#i think this is like. a very weird take#'he was pissed at morrigan for getting involved with wintersea' BECAUSE ITS DANGEROUS AND ILLEGAL#like i feel certain people want squall to look so good that theyre just. taking all the jupiter things out of proportion#'he leaves morrigan on her own a lot' like yeah. but not by herself. its clarified that if he isnt there she can go to fen and she has lots#of other adults to take care of her#also shes 11 not 6 like she doesnt need to be under constant supervision#nevermoor#jupiter north

modern rookanis au where spite is lucanis' cat who at best coexists with him and constantly knocks shit off counters and will find lucanis only to sit in front of him and yell. and then lucanis and rook get together and rook meets spite and spite immediately latches on. still a little shit, still a freak but he'll let rook pet him and he'll sit in their lap and Maybe even purr.
#i still havent gotten very far in the game because im trying to upgrade the shadow dragons shop and get everything i want from it#so this isnt incredibly informed but we're silly here its fine#i imagine before rook comes along spite is less of a pet and more of a roommate. like that cat just Lives here.#tmw 'your' cat likes your partner more than you#and if i can share my vision for what cat!spite looks like to you. if you know pangur imagine pangur but short haired and black-furred save#for one tiny tuft of white on the chest#idk what eye color he'd have. if we're trying to be realistic then he couldn't have purple-ish eyes without being albino so im not sure.#green maybe?#but considering this is made up and does Not Actually have to adhere to real life he Could have purple eyes anyway#dragon age#dragon age the veilguard#da: the veilguard#datv#spite dragon age#lucanis dellamorte#rook dragon age#rookanis

did a lil redraw of this Tessa i drew forever ago (15ish months ago) to test out the brush i made in csp to mimic my rough brush in my old program.
#my art#inn between#tessa#miss tessa#i was trying new things when i drew both of these so its not a perfect 'look how my style has grown' thing#cause even back then i was like this isnt perfect but its pretty good for what i want it for#and this one was both a test of a new brush And as realistic as my style can go without taking me forever to do#but theres still a big difference between the two and its more than i expected for 15 months. it feels like i just did the oneshot i drew#this for in the first place

i'm getting a lot of ratiorine/aventio stuff at my Tumblr feed and i do love them, however i dont know if i have the brain capacity to write them since they're both extremely smart hahaha
#can i solve ratio's equations?#yes#can i talk like him?#no 😭#i may be smart but genius isnt my lifestyle#sure you dont teachnically have to be a genius to write ratio or aventurine well#but i like to be... informed (?) even when i'm merely illustrating such concepts#for example#when i was designing Howett and Chuuya's kids#i actually researched/studied a little on genetics to find out which genes the baby would realistically inherit from its parents#i could have just gone 'one baby looks like Howett and the other is its twin that looks like Chuuya'#but no#i considered that the twin gene in Chuuya or Howett's bloodline is scarce#i also considered that noone in Howett's heritage has ever had red hair#so the chance of their baby having red hair is near impossible due to the red hair gene being super recessive#disclaimer: this is not to say people cant just say 'fuck science' and do absolutely anything#you can#i implore you#i just personally like mixing the love i have for art with the love i have for science ^_^#it is so much fun#kanrambles

#mdzs#lan wangji#jiang yanli#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#i ask bc i think the subject just never comes up in mdzs. we know how lan wangji feels about jiang cheng (he's a hater) but not yanli#which is a bit strange given how important she was to wei wuxian#uhh given that im the poll runner im not sure if i should share my own opinions. but#imo you can argue for any of these#yanli was made to be the perfect fridged woman so it feels like sacrilege for anyone to dislike her. she's too nice#and given that she's kind of similar in temperament to lan xichen i can see lan wangji thinking highly of her#especially after she sticks up for wei wuxian at the phoenix mountain hunt (it always comes back to wei wuxian)#but i can also see lan wangji focusing on the fact that she married into the sect that ultimately destroyed wei wuxian#he's not exactly reasonable when wei ying is involved. so i can see him arguing that she should have used her position#as wife of the jin sect heir to do more for wei wuxian. or that she should have convinced jiang cheng not to expel wei wuxian#when she was still living at lotus pier. or something like that#this is not reasonable and lan wangji does not have all the facts. but he isnt a reasonable person lmao#grudge holder 100. blame slinger 1000.#there is also the fact that wei wuxian super killed yanli's husband#so in a yanli lives au would lan wangji expect yanli to just get over this? so wei wuxian can be happy?#honestly i dont know#at any rate. in canon lan wangji doesnt seem to think very highly of jin ling. who is yanli's son#which seems to imply to me that he and yanli did not have any sort of friendship or acquaintanceship#so imo the most realistic option out of all the options here#is that lan wangji thinks of yanli as just wei wuxian's dead loved one. and not really her own person#in the end it all comes back to wei wuxian lol#yanyan polls#yanyan speaks#adding second tag bc i talked too much in the tags

Mumbo!
As a dragonet, he always loved puzzles and machines and creating things, and finding little opportunity for that in the rainforest, he decided to leave so he could do more of what he loved. Fearing that dragons wouldn’t take him seriously due to being a RainWing, he decided to disguise himself as a SkyWing. His disguise is very easy to see through, but it has worked well enough and he has built a good reputation for himself as a vault designer. He met Grian when they were both commissioned to design a rich dragon’s mansion (as an architect and vault designer respectively) and have been friends ever since!
He has also, unfortunately, been stuck with the name “Mumbo Jumbo” ever since.
#as a general note#in this au rainwings are a lot more varied (it isnt too uncommon to find one living outside the rainforest)#like they’re not all just “lazy pacifist loser” like 99% of them in arc 1#and different ‘wings arent as separate as they are in the books. there’s a lot more variation of traits and colours#both because them being so monolithic is less realistic and less fun to design for me!#like. you can get seawings with all sorts of cool/dark colours. and with lots of different accent colours#and some skywings have feathers. some dont. some rainwings have back spines. some dont. etc#all this to say: solo rainwing mumbo pretending to be a skywing isnt too preposterous. but its also a really bad disguise anyway#hcwof art#hcwof au#hcwof design#hermitcraft#wings of fire#hermitcraft fanart#mumbo jumbo#rainwing

Hii Percy!! I'm curious- what would be your ideal fnaf game after SOTM releases?
HI CHIP!! of course theres so many things I want to see after waiting so long but honestly I think a ggy game is what I'm expecting next. honest to god anything ranging from vanny!cassie to ggy and all the (human and not Cassies dad) characters in between I would be very happy with. it's why I'm so excited for sotm to finally release and end the mimic incorporation era. literally everything else it has left to cover are things that I would love
but yeah I think a ggy game would be absolutely hype and is actually very likely because of the THREE references/easter eggs weve gotten for him in a row!! I'm very excited to see what they're doing for him because damn ggy for Gregory's backstory has gone untouched for so long
I would love to see it explored in a campaign scenario of Gregory himself finding out about it but tbh I'm honestly expecting some prequel game about it that mostly just confirms it exists and expands upon content we dont know about from ggy like Rabs design and how he interacts with vanny. campaign would obviously be so much better for everyone involved but any ggy content is a win in my book
#it fundamentally cant be as boring as what sotm is doing if they go the game mostly about book content route#because theres a lot more freedom with ggy and things that we dont know about him that they can expand upon#and give everyone new content for#but i guess what i really want for ggy is for them to treat it like a present day campaigh#where its treated as a 'reveal' and not just boringly confirming information#like i want to see in universe as a story gregory reacting to and learning about his past#its so possible#HONESTLY if i got into it i could say my dream scenario is a ggy/gregorys backstory plotline in the big vanny!cassie villain game#where in between the campaign for the main storyline of savinf cassie#gregory learns about ggy#like that would be peak to me#but realistically we're prob gonna get 1 game exploring it and confirming it and giving us congent that fills in the gaps#which OF COURSE would be a huge win#but i just want it to affect the story in any way possible so bad#i want to see how it affects gregory#i want to know for sure confirmed if gregory really does have amnesia or not and if he rememebrs ggy#its all so interesting and it has so much potential#i feel like theres actually a good chance they could do a campaign bc gregorys mystery and mysterious backstory has#always been a huge deal about his character and like his main thing going on#so like they actually COULD try and do a storyline abt it instead of just confirming it#id be totally happy if they did a ggy campaign of gregory finding out as its own game first#outside of vanny!cassie plotline game and when that arrives gregory has knowledge abt ggy so he goes about thjngs differently#as well for sure.#literally in any way shape or form if they did a campaign present day post-sb game revealing ggy to the audience AND gregory#that would be my best case scenario#but once again truly anything that isnt mimic or Cassies dad will make me so happy#pandas.txt#pandas asks#pre ggy game#pre security breach 2

see my take is that i dont condone caits actions at all however she matches vis freak too much to not ship them in my eyes. and also i feel like the show wanted to give more depth & time to cait's "redemption" arc but it was so rushed that we never actually got to see that arc of cait realizing the consequences of her actions. i think its something thats implied to have happened off screen given the way caits already challenging ambessa but we never got that backstory so we dont actually know what was going through her mind or what led her to change her mind about ambessa.
#this is all to say i think caitvi critiques are valid and me shipping them does not condone my support for cait#i just think they look too hot together to not be together#and i also fully think that cait regretted everything she did we just never got to see that due to the rushed writing#also one thing i see is 'cait has been classist since day one' which isnt a lie#but also the person i saw who posted this was like 'even as a kid' and its like#i think the main point of this show is that so many of the younger people (jinx vi cait ekko etc) are products of the environments#they grew up in. which isnt to excuse caits actions but shes obviously grown up thinking this way about the undercity#but we also know that in s1 she really started to change her mind about the undercity!!!#which again brings me to the point of how the writing was rushed because s2 honestly just threw her entire s1 arc away i think#like fine i can understand shes angry about her mother but she changed her mind up about the undercity SO fast. like almost comically fast#which felt so werid to me#so i guess tldr is that i just think the show wanted to show caits arc but the writing got too rushed to achieve any of that in a#realistically timed manner#arcane#caitvi

#shitpost#snowbird#sera kaishurr#poll#this doesnt affect my current plans at all but i want to see if you can realistically guess what im going to do#who knows maybe my real plans arent even on here#biggest poll ive ever made for two people lol#once again only open for a day#fun fact! everything on this list was part of my planning at one point or another! except one.#have fun you two!#to celebrate my resuming of chapter five of course#just so you know if you freakishly overanalyse chapter four all the answers are right there#hell if you freakishly overexamine my whole work it spells out “THIS GAY BITCH ISN'T GOOD AT FORESHADOWING PROPERLY”#or you can just guess and see if youre right because like i said there's a very high chance that my real plan isnt on here#in case you cant tell this has been in my drafts for a few days and these are new tags

Do you think you were too nice to that teddy person in your inbox? And like how they stole content
no i don’t think there’s ever a downside to choosing kindness even when someone doesn’t deserve it. everyone’s entitled to their own reaction, and i don’t excuse plagiarism at all, but me being mean wouldn’t have helped. its either rage bait, someone looking for attention, or someone young and insecure that hopefully learned a hard lesson. honestly, i just feel pity. they’re cheating themselves out of actually engaging with fandom and growing as a writer and that’s their loss
i hope they do the right thing and learn from this, and if they ever try writing again, i genuinely hope they figure out how to do it the right way
#teddy gate#or sumthin#i know i come off as blunt perhaps but i dont like being mean when there isnt a purpose lol#im so serious when i say choosing kindness over condemnation isnt for the other persons sake#but for yours#if anything to save yourself the energy#and this is coming from someone who can be a hater#just pick and choose ur battles baby lmaoo#like yes be angry and annoyed#but like realistically what would a meaner response from me have accomplished#nothin#idk if that makes sense#asks

realtalk you guys probably dont need to know about but i know like zero weirdromantic people in real life, i think my cuddlebuddy might still be in love with me but also i dont think i mind at all. my default un-filtered way of showing affection to close friends Is near impossible to differentiate from romantic affection and i dont mind being treated with affection that is probably romantic as long as the other party doesn't expect romantic love or exclusivity from me, or lead anybody outside of us to make assumptions on our relationship. and like. i doubt they care since what i do is so close to romantic anyway. its not really leading anybody on if we've talked about it
#i kind of enjoy the feeling of having a friend be in love with me if they dont expect anything of me about it honestly#realistically this person is a Very close friend i would not have any qualms with more cuddles or kissing them or#hell even The Other Stuff Couples Do (demon in my brain saying to not say it openly) if they wanted#but i am not attracted to them and i have told them as much and it seems fine#so i guess the thing is more 'how do i ask this person if i can kiss them and whatever but like platonically though'#idk i love incredibly abnormal friendships everybody should have more incredibly abnormal friendships#also the worst that could come out of this is me falling for them which honestly would not be a problem#it all works out i think#i am also just like#incredibly touch starved so this isnt just a 'if they want to treat me like this they can'#i do want to initiate but not in a romantic context which is my main hangup honestly#im still doing pretty good though im marginally winning at the fuck amatonormativity game#veespeaks

i do think its kinda funny when i see someone in the year of our lord 2024 talk about vocal synth music like its all gone downhill since like 2010 because like dont get me wrong i love a good niconicodouga-ass 2008 ass vocaloid joint BUT also like. the past couple years have had the most fascinatingly creative and expressive uses of vocal synthesizers ive ever heard in my life DJFSKHJDFS dont write it all off just yet!!
#usually i only see that from people who havent actually listened to any vsynth music from the past 15 years so i understand why they got to#that conclusion. and also usually theyre people who didnt listen to much vsynth music in the first place LOL they just dont know#but it is still a little funny. brother there are things beyond your wildest dreams if u just look#like some personal highlights: the stuff by rinri - particularly their use of the meika girlies#dont carry our memories away is LIFECHANGING the whispers. the spoken parts. the BELTS#plus the haunting and unrelenting instrumentation. fantastic song#and naisho no pierced's propose + birthday + gift sort of trilogy of songs. gift especially has been unreal#again the dynamics of soft intimate whispers to belts but also those fuller high notes with edges of growlyness.#plus the songs just generally rock. and those LYRICS. absolutely intense like physically painful and frightening like#yearning and codependency and possession. and the tuning and production just amps it up more#OH and slave.v.v.r has been doing crazy things for even longer but i only started getting into his stuff recently and holy shit#love eater is like. the scariest vocaloid song ive ever heard not because of the lyrics. but because of the tuning#im like. scared. i cant stop listening to it. the heavy synthesized breathy main vocals and whispered harmonies plus the VOCAL FRY#i didnt realized vocaloid5? i think? has a vocal fry option built in i heard? thats crazy#but specifically in love eater the fry and growl is amped up so deep and loud and clear compared to everything else it like#emphasizes the artificiality of the voice while also amping up the expressiveness#its awesome. and on the older slave.v.v.r songs i heard i will hit you 8759632145 times with this piano. also so fucking cool#addicted to that song. 1) its a great jazzy rocky piano tune with this piano flourish at the end of each phrase that sounds fantastic#but also 2) the lyrics are insane. using kanji to write english??????#people are doing wild ass things with vocal synths rn you guys#this isnt even getting into some of the really unique synths themselves too. adachi rei is awesome i love that shes just like#the perfect inbetween of sample based and reconstruction based vocals. shes a sample based synth#but her samples were drawn by hand LOL shes like dectalks granddaughter to me.....#a really good use of adachi rei is iyowa's heat abnormal/heat anomaly/whatever its called ITS AWESOME thats what it is hjrkfdgfd#i think the fact that vocal synths can be so realistic and clean and noiseless out the gate now has made people really stop worrying#about like. realism all together and looking more into expressiveness. omg vocal synth modernist movement

watched whitepine 1. i think i want to gather all my thoughts on part 1 before moving on to the next installments but oh wow im excited to see where this story goes
#this is one of those projects that makes me wish minecraft youtubers hired professional voiceactors.#lowkey as i watch ive been imagining this as a fortiche production. & i dont mean either this or the thing about VAs as an insult!!!#it just . would feel right. this is so great i feel like im watching an award nominated indie film and not a minecraft production#and the reason i mentioned fortiche specifically is because their ability to make these odd inhuman designs (see: lest steb and babette)#fit right into the mainly realistic human world they inhabit in arcane was just wonderful and i loved it a lot#and i think that would work well with these wacky mcyt skins. like princezam is literally a yellow blob#anyway so those were all my little notes about how much i love animation . onto actually discussing the story#um . i really loved ivorys character. everyone else isnt very developed yet (understandable! ive watched 30 minutes of this thing so far)#you can get a grasp of what shes about. i liked the scene with seraptor where she freaks out a bit when asked if she doesnt like#how much he talks. it made me cry a little bit because i have Issues#and her referring to everyone as sir or ma'am and asking permission to do anything as well as always saying that she was staying#in the servant side of the house and all that is very . like just kinda sad. very interesting#i like the melancholic atmosphere everywhere as well as all the wideshots#(and i liked the parts where while following minute(? i think. not well versed in the names of this general crowd im ngl) ivory kept#looking around everywhere. and how she stood somewhere behind him when he was talking to the person at the gate or whatever#i like her!)#it all sets the tone very nicely . i like this series#go watch it maybe#voidcore.txt

Dragon Ball fandom that read super, why the fuck Goku and Vegeta trains for two/ almost three years non stop without visiting family once? I was shocked reading superhero, that was so unnecessary
#son family#dragon ball#dragon ball super#also quality writing is even worse than usual i am sorry wtf means freezer randomically closing an arc like that#granolah is perfect through#also bardock wishing for both his sons to strive#raditz did really strived...#and people complained about gt#also moro arc was so boring but he was indeed a cool villain#dbs has interesting and cool concepts#tbh i know why goku and vegeta dissapear for 2 years half#so goten and trunks can be the heroes#that is cute but dont need to be THREE YEARS#just them training on whis planet and since they need him to teleport#or maybe they dont anymore?#feel bad for pan#and bulla#trunks goten bulma chichi and gohan are used to their insanity#end rants#tbh is okay i just have to accept they are bad patriarch#but for me isnt that the issue IS THE STORY ITSELF NOT AKNOWLEDGING#people would call it realistic#and yeah this is why i hate it seeing pan being sad and then everything okah because my grandpa was the same always forgetting me

so yea running servers isnt like a cheap thing is what ive been learning these past couple weeks
#fair warning this is me just like going off new knowledge so i could be getting things wrong#buying an actual server isnt really that expensive itself! the issue is like actually running it and when you have actual ppl on said serve#thats where costs start racking up#theres different ways to go about handling a server but mainly what ive been getting from this is:#self hosting (running urself) or managed hosting (having a 3rd party run it for you)#so when ur small or solo u can get away with managed servers cause theyre pretty lowcost or free#and you usually want to go this route if you dont have the skills built up to take care of a server yourself#or if you arent interested in learning cause its pretty time consuming and u have to upkeep it#but they are scary expensive once u get a certain amount of users from what ive seen#its extremely convenient and gives u peace of mind but theres no point using the service if ur making enough money#especially since you wont have as much control of your server if its managed#so at that point just hire people to take care of your own servers you buy#however there are still server costs u need to pay (along with the people u have hired)#im only bringing this up to say that solmare is running ''two'' separate servers for two seperate games (as far as ik)#and probably arent making that much more in profit cause#me as a user...if i have two games that r practically the same on my phone im not spending money on both#its either one or the other#but you still need to pay accordingly to have both of these servers up#like realistically they arent gonna be able to keep both apps running indefinitely#but yea whatever they were saying in the beginning about having both games running and not forgetting about the og#was either a very generous guess or they were just lying#if it were like a nikki game situation where all the games r very different then maybe it would have been feasible#anyways yea sorry i needed an excuse to talk about the website stuff ive been learning!! and obey me is always in the back of my head#im like thinking about this stuff a lot cause for my site i need to have a server and its like okay we r gucci rn#i can stick with managed for now cause im assuming its gonna stay small#but like...theres always that non zero percent chance that it might not be gucci later on lol#so been researching a lot and i just dont wanna run my own server that sounds so boring its not even funny#so yea im just like AHHH
