#and that’s my sales pitch

[wind-up-boy-toy]

Maybe Dewey is a bit jealous of the support that Huey and Louie have with their parent/uncle, Huey and Louie could probably go out and do things with their parents but Scrooge just wants Dewey out of his hair most of the time.

Maybe Huey is also a lil jealous of Donald too,

Unrelated AU drawing once again!

I figured I should explain how Huey, Dewey and Louie view each other in this AU. Oh boy.

Keep reading

i think sometimes parsing down solavellan into just a sentence or two really highlights how insane it is. like hey imagine if god created your world by mistake and is horrified that you even exist. but then he falls in love with you. are you fucking kidding me

Shakaijin Yuri Light Novel 'Did You Think My Yuri Was a Sales Pitch?' License in English

On Saturday, at Anime NYC 2024, Yen Press announced that it has licensed Neru Asakura's Yuri light novel Did You Think My Yuri Was a Sales Pitch? (Watashi no Yuri mo, Eigyou da to Omotta?). The single-volume is illustrated by Chigusa Minori (Shino to Ren).

Yen Press describes the light novel:

Suzune Senmiya, a young voice actress, has been struggling for six months to get over the retirement of her favorite idol, Karin Kanezuki. One day, Karin shows up as a new voice actress in Suzune’s agency! While Suzune tries to play it cool and keep her distance, Karin aggressively closes the gap between them. And as Suzune starts to see unexpected sides of Karin, she begins to perceive her not just as an idol but as a woman. 

Did You Think My Yuri Was a Sales Pitch? was published in Japan in 2023 under Kadokawa's Dengeki Bunko imprint. It received generally positive reviews from audiences who noted it was short, light, and cute with just a little bit of drama.

The novel is written by Yuri light novel author Neru Asakura, who has published a few light novels in the past few years, including Kare nanka yori, Watashi no Hou ga Ii desho? Did You Think My Yuri Was a Sales Pitch? is their first work to be licensed in English. It is illustrated by Minori Chigusa who is primarily known for their original Yuri works and light novel illustrations. Jenny McKeon (Bloom Into You, Kobayashi's Dragon Maid) translates the light novel into English.

Short chubby brambleclaw and tall muscular Nightcloud, I don't know why but I like bramblenight

come back and tell me if you find out

Like father, like son.

I feel like we talk a lot about how similar Wilbur is to his mom, which makes sense given that at first glance it looks as if mother nature just went "copy, paste and genderbend" and called it a day, but I love the fact that there's also a bunch of little moments in the movie that show that Wilbur is very much his father's son too.

So, The Glass Scientists by Sage Cotugno is one of my absolute favourite Jekyll and Hyde stories and I would highly recommend it.

It has the same tone of lighthearted silliness mixed with genuine tragedy which I loved about the original novella

I gives Jekyll and Hyde both ample screentime so you get to see both of their perspectives, and get to know them both as people

It doesn't play the "Jekyll's pure good, Hyde's pure bad" card, which I appreciate

The character designs are great and Hyde's facial expressions are priceless!

It keeps in the queer narrative, which is a major part for many people reading the novella but I haven't seen other adaptations do it very well

It has a werewolf, and he's a very nice and sweet young man

And it's Webcomic, so it's free to read on the internet!

Hey, you, pssst, over here!

Are you looking for some audio fiction to escape The Horrors of real life?

Do you like gruff, monologuing private investigators who hate the cops?

What about floating cyberpunk cities?

…on Jupiter?

Trans femme fatales?

Hyenagirl trans femme fatales?

How would you feel if we threw in a society with at-will body swapping, body theft, mysterious characters with equally mysterious backstories, and anti-capitalism?

And what if there were excellent voice acting, production, and sound design?

If all that appeals, then let me introduce you to The Dakota Gold Mysteries.

Its first installment, Cloud City Sonata, is being released as we speak!

Part 3, Vivo Glissando Along the Vagus Nerve airs tomorrow, November 15.

To listen, find The Dakota Gold Mysteries by Law of Names Media on your listening platform or choice, or go here:

strqrock summer for @sracha !!

[breezy-cheezy]

Sometimes, someone will reach out to help you, someone you’d least expect...

First of these is a sketch my friend @forwantofacalling did after a mutual brain rot....I lined and colored and screamed at it, and here we are :> Jamil and Azul are friends ok it’s rocky but they are-

Annnnd second one is inspired by my friend @insertsomthinawesome ‘s art, specifically this piece! Vil was the third character in her training camp so I raised my little hand like “what if” so!! (Also did you know cats purr to help healing? Comfort?? Leona caught purring to help a cub Riddle, Vil’s not sure what to do with that info LMAO)

Please don’t tag with any pairing tags, all of these pieces are platonic in intent. Thanks!

[thevegetablewhichnoonedaresname]

hold on a dang second. is Marf able to use a wood saber because of all her. stuff. because she's mastered the stuff??

[nelyoslegalteam]

please tell me about your dnd campaign, stranger

hi hi hi hi hi hi hi do you have any idea how happy i am to get this ask. you have activated my trap card this is going to be SO long i am sorry in advance but The People Need To Know About My D&D Campaign.

so we’re playing in Adventures in Middle Earth, which is. supposedly a Tolkienverse-specific 5e mod but frankly it’s robust enough to fully count as its own system if you ask me. like it has its own guidebooks, character sheets, premade adventures, and features mechanics that 5e just straight up doesn’t have. it’s like if 5e were actually good. anyway. may i present to you:

｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ The Mirkwood Campaign ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

so what, exactly, happened in the intervening years between the events of the Hobbit and LOTR? we did, BAYBEEEEEE!!

we are:

Murdoc, a hobbitish warden (adventures in middle earth’s version of a bard), played by yours truly!! raised in the shire and eventually moved out to the middle of mirkwood by an eccentric uncle who idolizes bilbo baggins, murdoc is the heir apparent to the brandybuck family inn. unfortunately for murdoc, he has developed extremely nasty prophetic dreams and is now burdened with the ability to see the future! a skill that has definitely left him with a very normal relationship to his new day job of Being An Adventurer!! i am unhinged and have uh. Talked About Him A LOT If You Care To Read This, but he is full of murderous rage and also tea and loves his friends very much. he also, more recently, surrendered himself as bait to the great werewolf plaguing mirkwood, trusting completely that his friends would come and save him. he was right. they did. and he lost his right hand in the process. :)

Ríros, an elven warrior (aime version of a fighter), played by @jaz-the-bard. tall, buff, sunshiny, and an absolute himbo. ALSO loves his friends VERY much and this is KEY. unfortunately for ríros, he is a redhead, and that does cause problems in a world where maedhros feänorion once existed. (stranger, i am so sorry if you are not one of my silmarillion regulars and did not know what you were getting into by asking me, a silmarillion blog, to tell you about my d&d campaign, and now have no idea who or what the fuck i am talking about). ríros is notably not maedhros though! he isn't even noldorin!! maedhros is a ghost who lives in his sword (and who is also played by jaz)! and who also maybe kind of accidentally possessed him one time, if you wanna read this here for a better explanation of ríros mostly but also all of the above.

The Bearer, a human slayer (aime barbarian), played by @thymo-leonta. grumpy old man. unwilling father to all these young and stupid adventurers he’s been stuck with. are they all adults? yeah sure. they’re still Children. we are making him go grey. also full of murderous rage. looks like he's running from his perfectly normal, happy, loving family. is actually acutely aware of the fact that he has been doomed to die. killed the werewolf that took murdoc's hand. as a consequence, became the werewolf that took murdoc's hand. has two dogs, both named Dog <3

Déorwyn, a human wanderer (aime ranger), played by @shadowkat2000. resident party Horse Girl. a fellow sufferer of The Bad Prophetic Dreams^TM. because this is not quite unfortunate enough for her, déorwyn Hears Dead People. apparently our GM gives her extra secret bonus ghosts that the rest of us do not hear or know about! this being the source of her foresight makes her pretty distinct from murdoc, despite them both seemingly suffering from the same thing, in ways that i have LOTS of emotions about. her horse is named windrider and Their Bond Is Unbreakable uwu

and @potatoobsessed999, our obligatorily Extremely Ominous GM!

(we are also occasionally joined by Ioreth, a human treasure hunter (aime rogue), whose player is unfortunately not on tumblr. a founding member of the party, has earned the epithet The Feral, mostly loves to hang out in the woods by herself, look for shiny things, and cause chaos. as a beorning, she CAN astral-project herself as a bear. it rules. once got possessed by a ringwraith, probably holds the most compassion for characters who have been through similar out of any of us. is usually covered in mud.)

initially in the employ of radagast the brown, a tenure that did not last due to murdoc's insistence that saruman is evil (i mean. yeah lol.), we're a group of adventurers traveling mirkwood with the aim to defend it as sauron slowly gathers power. we are

very

successful at the Fighting And Killing Things part of this

we specialize in:

lugging unconscious bodies through the woods!

lugging DEAD bodies through the woods!

lugging EACH OTHER'S bodies through the woods!

lugging things through the woods in general!

setting things on fire (usually murdoc's fault)!

making fun of our enemies so bad they just give up!

INCLUDING the ringwraiths (shoutout to ríros)!

serving annoying politicians subpoenas!

murdering them like the one time it was totally justified we promise!

accidentally convincing the council of mirkwood that murdoc's inn is a small fiefdom!

being generally cursed (except for ríros) (he just looks that way)!

HIRE US to take care of whatever problems are happening in YOUR local cursed forest! wights? patricidal politicians? generally awful politicians? sauron? the same fucking werewolf again? it's definitely just tuesday to us!

you can count on

｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ the union of murdoc ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆

anyhow, jaz is absolutely wonderful and has written several fics of our party, including (but not limited to):

Cooking Contest for the Free Peoples, based on an in-game conversation about beating sauron at competitive cooking,

In Which There Are More Ghosts, which is not canon to game but is in fact Extremely Representative of the exact kind of nonsense we get up to (campaign's haunted),

A Stranger With a Friend's Face, a canon to game horror story of how ríros got slightly possessed, the party acquired maedhros, and neither murdoc nor déorwyn managed to explain the presence of the vengeful ghost residing in murdoc's scepter and bullying him in his dreams to any of the rest of the party right up until this very moment,

and this wonderful drabble from the horror arc in which we were isolated inside of a haunted longhouse. complete with party memes here.

there's more, and i am going to a.) pick on jaz to add them if they can find them, and b.) pick on my beloved friends in general to Please Help Me Infodump About our Game!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is the author's perspective on the most challenging parts of writing a story, and what advice do they offer to writers struggling with different phases of storytelling?

Okay I'm going to be real with you, the syntax of this ask was weird enough I went to your blog to try to see what your deal is and whether you're a chatbot.

Your blog turned out to be about two weeks old and consist largely of reblogs from one person. (@cy-cyborg and sideblogs thereof.) Your blog header and all your (few but voluminous) original posts read like they were composed by a chatbot trying to somehow sell the concept of reading?? books????? Cozy book times??? The experience of following your blog as an extension of the pleasure of reading books?? The literary aesthetic?

But while you have the chirpy redundant sentence structure of a machine learning algorithm and a habit of falling into the customer-service-plural-first, you don't actually descend into nonsense at any point I noticed, rendering those posts ambiguously human in the same way as the average recipe blog. Also you commit flagrant instagram-style tag spam.

I'd have blocked and ignored and possibly reported you as a spambot, except on some of your reblogs-with-commentary you turn into a normal human person who lives in Australia, so I kinda threw up my hands. Maybe you have blood idk.

I have no idea what the point and/or goal of your blog is. Altogether baffling.

Anyway I definitely don't speak for some collective hivemind of authors and this question is way too vague for me to do much with. If I didn't suspect it of coming from a robot I'd have put in some effort to engage meaningfully, but trying to figure out what manner of entity was farming me for content used up all the spoons I had available.
