maglor's first time getting to go to a concert / his favorite singer attending maglor's first big concert
#silm#silmarillion#maglor#i didnt feel like inventing a name for the band so their name is just Band in tengwar#im pretty sure band means something in sindarin anyways (as in angband)#btw i have decided the band guy is named#moredhel#hes a feanorian and later a captain of maglors guard in the Gap#and yes he still dresses up like mandos for the bonus intimidation factor in battle#maglor's horses are the least easily spooked in all of beleriand because his army is half singers and all very screamy#only a few of them do the full feanturian look tho#it's very effective because everyone is scared of mandos#ranging from the people who actually know him being somewhat weirded out by his whole prophecy thing#to people who only know his reputation being absolutely terrified#maybe theres one feanturian warrior who specifically dresses as one of irmo's maia#and who specializes in those weird Songs that make people see the events of the song#ooh maybe moredhel survives to the third age and lives in rivendell#he doesn't normally wear the feanturi makeup anymore and basically nobody born post-darkening remembers feanturian-emo/goth subcultures#so when he does put the feanturian mask and makeup on half the house starts screaming about mandos#elrond unfortunately has to deal with it#at least he's causing less trouble than ''''Lindir''''

Are they......you know....
#robin draws things#persona 3#hidetoshi odagiri#keisuke hiraga#keitoshi#yes. the answer is yes#all of the kyoto conversations w/ hidetoshi and keisuke give a vibe tbh#but the third one takes the cake#context keisuke challenged hidetoshi to skip a rock across all the way to the other side of the river#and hidetoshi ended up tripping and falling in the process#'''whats the point in doing that?'' ''because... it'd make me happy?'' and hidetoshi proceeds to not deny this at all#also revealed in these convos:#hidetoshi calls keisuke by his first name with no honorifics at all#keisuke is a third year mind you so anyone else it would have been last name + senpei#this isn't even a localisation thing either its the same in the japanese version (+ that one cd drama part)#also they are childfriends and used to go skip rocks when they were in elementary school#keisuke seems more mischievous around hidetoshi#he also doesn't seem afraid to poke fun of hidetoshi and getting him a little mad

Late Night quick thing (New Age Sillies)
Bad news: That joke post about including Reset + Orchid is definitely not canon. (I legit got sad thinking about Reset being in a universe where Orchid isn't- because their stories are so so intertwined- but Nightmare 100% would NOT risk the whole twins exploding Error's soul thing.)
Good news: This means I COULD include Kane (Reset's older brother who usually dies in timelines where Reset is born) and use it to develope his character a bit more! Also! Perhaps a Blue × Dream kiddo is finally in the stars for me to design?
#new age au#really enjoying the idea of Reaper + Geno having an heir at some point (and them sending that heir over to Night's kingdom for#exposure to other places as well as to hang with his third cool knight dad who's hard at work 🙏)#Kane has little to no development besides being a perfect angel (foil to Reset's eventual turn to poor choices) so I'd love to do#to him what I do to every oc of mine. (Namely: Throw them into the Kingdom and see what they do.)#oh! and I could see Blue and Dream (beloved boys) listening to the warnings of possible complications if they try to have a lil babybones#and Dream deciding he'd take the risk and carry the growing soul#(<- though tbf this is MANY years into the future and they'd be well established knights of the realm)#i'm not evil so they *would* manage to avoid the twins curse and have a singular beautiful babybones#they'd get raised partially on the move but stay behind with Night and Error if the two had a more dangerous mission#and grow up to be an obnoxiously powerful warrior following after their dads#(but they'd probably be hesitant to follow into the footsteps of being a knight and might go on a quest with friends before choosing a#final path for themselves)#<- Most spoiled rotten kid ever. courtesy of Nightmare and Error and all their extended family <3#oh last note. Ancha has me cracking up w/ ideas for Cross potentially meeting someone and I was beamed w/ an old ship request post I saw and#I think it'd be funny to include Lust in here somehow... (probably call him smth else as a nickname but y'know-)#like. He works in the city around the castle as some sort of... idk tailor? and he's been making things for Nightmare for years without#knowing because Ccino always was discreet about the orders and providing measurements + always tipped well so it was none of his business#but one day it's like. before a big announcement ceremony or smth and Ccino drags Cross in by the scruff because no one can get him to get#clothes that actually fit aside from armor (hc he steals the others clothes a lot and wears 1 shirt until it's threadbare)#so Ccino makes him go to Lust and Lust is able to get him fitted for sone new outfits because. well. Lust doesn't do much but he's very very#handsome and Cross is super easily flustered and shy around new people and he's awkward and aughhh.#and then he thinks about the interaction for the next month before deciding he's going to ask Ccino to go back there again.#and Lust likes dressing Cross up in new outfits (everyone thinks it's great Cross is loosening up and meeting new friends cuz Lust introduce#s him to people in town) and it takes forever for Cross to get over his worries and ask Lust out to a ride on his horse (romantic. of course#) and Lust agrees because he's charmed.#and the best part would be Cross *actually* manages to keep it a secret. like. no one finds out until one morning Killer bursts into Cross'#room to wake him for surprise training and it's Cross. the weird Dog. and- holy shit did Cross have someone over???#Cross pulls the cool ones frfr 🙏#it's just a casual thing between them with little plot relevance or drama I think. just a chill lil relationship 🙏

Having Caleb as the official eng translator is hell because due to all the times he's been outright wrong (eg "you sorry excuse of a brother") (boy) or used the weirdest phrasing possible (eg "remember when Shigaraki made swiss cheese outta me") (boy) oftentimes I look at things and go "these are the same but not the same and I don't know who to trust more"
#unrelated but i have the japanese version of this panel too (just this one though :/) and uraraka uses anata for toga#and i went and listened to their latest confrontation in the anime and she used anata there too#and it stuck out to me because i remember her only ever using names instead of third person pronouns#and like i know the internet doesn't have all the answers but if you're telling me that it's either used for strangers or for your husband#if you're a woman then i'm bound to have Questions#(<- reverse psychology technique to attract someone who speaks japanese to me like a lamp for a moth akdkfjg)#togachako#mytext#animanga#bnha

My friend: I can't think while I'm at work
Me, at work, earlier that day: word for word writing a fic In my head
#not a happy one either#out here in the pharmacy aisles thinking about comas#(old news)#but it was like Elsie calling her mom and her mom asking how everyone was#namely how Elsie (heart failure) and Finch (fetus whos host is going into heart failure) are doing#and Elsie says that shes been having contractions but shes hiding them from her doctors#(even though she thinks its Braxton hicks)#and her mom yells at her and asks why she would do that and Elsie says she doesn't want to have this baby without her wife#because her wife Atticus has been in a coma for about a week after an aneurysm ruptured + she hemorrhaged and seized#and her mom is about to say like “a life for a life” vibes. when a baby is born someone dies. that's how it works#and Elsie yells at her because a) what the fuck and b) why would god choose to kill her HEALTHY wife after making Elsie so sick?#why wouldn't he take Elsie if he needed a life for a life?#anyway i wrote it when i got home lmao#and now im at work again but this time it was filling waters.#and while i was doing that i was day dreaming about Rainey and Lyria and Remus#it was a nicer daydream (Rainey and Lyria going to get icecream but Rainey has no cash. Remus has 100$)#but i knew Remus had to ve hurt or she wouldn't be there (third wheeling AND She and Lyria don't get along)#so i was trying to figure out the timeline and decided on when she tried to kill herself so Rainey is watching her#and all I thiught was: (annoyed) i promsie not to kill myself in the next half an hour 😒#(while they run to town to get icecream together and she's left at home)#james is rambling again#ocs#rambling#thoughts#writer#writing#original character

I think the biggest reason I struggled to connect with the Inquisitor as a character is because of the 'chosen one' trope
#and also bc the inquisitor imo becomes too important too quickly#i like stories where you have to drag through mud for people to respect you#like even in DA2 it's only in the third act where you get some cred to your name#in DAO you're busting your ass saving people and there's still some who'll criticize you#and i didn't feel that with the inquisitor?#like very quickly lots of people are asking help from the inquisition and you're put in this place of savior#and it's weird bc at the same time i'm being told this#by the NPCs and the narrative#i don't *feel* that?#like i know that the inquisitor is important and all but i don't get that feeling#idk how to explain#like its feels like i'm being told how important the inquisition has been for keeping the peace#and how we're helping so many people#but i don't feel that#which is strange right bc i felt that in dao#i got the dwarves elves and mages on my side and like whenever i was done with the main quests and order was restored to that place#and an NPC would be like thank you we'll help you fight the archdemon#i felt like i was doing something important#when the other characters from DA2 and DAI talk about how important the warden was for them it makes sense to me#i think the main thing is that the warden and hawke made me feel things but the inquisitor didn't#i'm playing as Adaar now and it's been more fun than with lavellan#but that feeling of i know the inquisitor is important but it doesn't feel that way is still there#and also i just really don't like chosen one narratives#bc like...ok let's look at the warden#yes the GW are the only ones who can end the blight but the warden is not the only warden there#there's still alistair or loghain#and also you have to really work your ass to get shit done in DAO with limited resources and a bounty on your head#and people will even say that the wardens aren't that necessary#and then you have hawke#who was literally a nobody

30 June: I get sick. Hacking cough, snotty nose, nausea, the works.
2 July: Mr. Geeky and Mars get sick. Both experience minor coughing. Mr. Geeky has some nausea.
5 July: Mr. Geeky and Mars are no longer sick.
7 July: I am still sick. No nausea but much snot and coughing and sinus pressure.
8 July: Mr. Geeky tells me that if I hadn't been sick first, his symptoms were so mild he wouldn't even have noticed that he was sick.
9 July: I murder my husband. It is difficult, what with all the snot and coughing, but it had to be done.
10 July: I am still sick.
#geeky talks#my fucking immune system is constantly on vacation i swear#there's just one night guard on duty#and he's had a rough few days#his pregnant wife is in her third trimester and is having a hard time sleeping#so he's constantly wakened by her tossing and turning#and he's got a bad back so he can't sleep in the couch#and all the other night guards have called in sick#but he knows those assholes are just playing hooky#so he's basically living on coffee and energy trying to keep the whole place just running#he doesn't have time to do more than the basics the poor guy#anyway his name is philbert and we love and appreciate philbert in this house#the only part of my immune system that is even trying (you're doing great sweetie)#at this point you may be asking#geeky are you okay you just made up a story about a night guard for your immune system#and listen philbert and i do not need your judgment okay we're doing our best

What Do I Ship?
Don't mistake this for a tolerance or tier list. I will read and write ships that aren't even on this list, or write ships from the secondary list sometimes, this is just to give you a general sense of the stuff I mainly support/think about and in what capacity. Might be updated periodically. Ranting and comments in the tags.
Re: the Mokuba ships, I only ship them in non-problematic ways, where either the Kaiba brothers are ageswapped, making Mokuba the same age as the rest of the main cast, or where they only get together far post-canon where Mokuba's an adult. We cool? Cool.
Primary Ships
(things I can/want to create content for; this does not include every ship I've ever written, just the ones I care about/are currently engaged in writing/plan to write multiple fics for, or ships I just stan in a way that I know it'll never end)
Euroshipping (Kaiba x Ryou)
Puppyshipping (Joey x Kaiba)
Mumbleshipping (Kaiba x Ryou x Duke)
Teaseshipping (Joey x Ryou x Kaiba)
Snareshipping (Joey x Duke)
Trustshipping (Kaiba x Ishizu)
Polarshipping (Joey x Mai)
Blueshipping (Kisara x Kaiba)
Mizushipping (Kisara x Priest Seto)
Minorshipping (Ryou x Duke)
Mastershipping (Duke x Kaiba)
Puffshipping (Joey x Ryou)
Sweetshipping (Ryou x Mokuba)
Wintershipping (Mokuba x Amane)
Rollshipping (Duke x Ryou x Joey)
Secondary Ships
(things I will read but I don't write {much, or anymore, in some cases} for one reason or other)
Wishshipping (Joey x Yugi)
Powershipping (Kaiba x Marik)
Graceshipping (Ishizu x Ryou)
Doubtshipping (Kaiba x Ryou x Marik)
Petshipping (Duke x Kaiba x Joey)
Axisshipping (Kaiba x Siegfried)
Angstshipping (Ryou x Marik)
Irateshipping (Marik x Joey)
Buddyshipping (Joey x Tristan)
Heartshipping (Yugi x Ryou)
Fragileshipping (Yami Yugi x Ryou)
Changeshipping (Duke x Marik)
Logicshipping (Priest Seto x Priestess Isis)
Gemshipping (Ryou x Thief King Bakura)
Thiefshipping (Yami Bakura x Marik)
Candleshipping (Kaiba x Ryou x Yami Bakura)
Antagoshipping (Kaiba x Yami Bakura)
Corruptshipping (Priest Seto x Thief King Bakura)
Stoicshipping (Kaiba x Priest Seto)
Shimmershipping (Duke x Mokuba)
Guardshipping (Kaiba x Roland)
Senetshipping (Ishizu x Duke)
Angelicshipping (Ryou x Rafael)
Mercuryshipping (Kisara x Kaiba x Ishizu)
Entrepreneurshipping (Duke x Kaiba x Siegfried)
Unnamed (Aigami x Marik x Yami Bakura)
Scholarshipping (Kaiba x Ishizu x Ryou)
There's also plenty of random unnamed poly ships that I want to play around with in one-shots, usually a combo of my top six fave characters.
#rose talks#my ships#ship list#creating this post just to link to it in my pinned post. don't mind me.#i might add a third section called “i just think they're neat”#what happened with thiefshipping is that I worked really hard on a one-shot for it and was pretty proud of it#but then it got like no attention and i figured my characterization must have been way off#so i didn't try to write it again after that#i wrote a lot of Marik one-shots a long time ago but I don't think my characterization of him was actually that good#that's why i haven't really written him outside of Rock Bottom in a long time#if you put kaiba ryou duke joey marik in a jar and jumble them all up and pour 2 or 3 of them out. i ship anything that comes out.#almost the same if you replace marik with ishizu but i don't see her and joey working out (unless maybe to gang up on kaiba)#currently intrigued by the idea of kaiba/ryou/ishizu and i would call that scholarshipping if the name wasn't already taken#also just discovered mercuryshipping and i think that would be so fascinating#i think guardshipping can easily be problematic but it doesn't have to be. i think it can be kinda sweet if done right.#re: the mokuba ships i've had someone tell me that shipping child characters with anyone is gross EVEN IF you age them up and um no#every adult ever is an aged-up child. that's how life works.#i'm so much more interested in mokuba as an adult than as a child anyways. just purely from a character perspective#because damn. who knows what this boy will become. ya know? it's about the potential

Also, am Intrigued by infos I have now seen on Natlan
#☆ ┆ ( .ooc. );#//First of all; Kach|na saying she likes to collect shiny gems is so cute#//Second; the Tepetlisaurs are so fucken adorable#The seem so very huggable. Also like they'd break yer ribs if they tried to kjfgkd#//Third; I fucken LOVE Koholasaurs!#//Fourth; Why does K|nich say his ppl value freedom & want Human/Saurian relations built only on trust & support; not contracts#//As if the OTHER tribes don't believe in that and strictly only bonding with saurians by contract#//But also says HE's the outlier of his tribe. Like does he not have his own companion or does he too believe it should only be by contract#//That's kinda wack; bro. If anything that should be the NORM#//Why SHOULDN'T Saurians bond bc they like the person and WANT to; instead of having to get put through a contract?#//Unless he's saying the saurians can't be trust...?#//Idk; thinkings thinkings#//And last but not least; the Yumkasasaurs are THE CUTEST FUCKEN THINGS. They're Natlan's lil trapeze artists!#//If K|nich had one attached to him and doesn't treat it nicely; it will be ON SIGHT for that fucker#//His description has me suspicious of him; so he is thus far on Thin Ice#//The gluttonous Yumkasaur is giving Snorlax jdffgfkg#//Thus I love it v much (watch me hate it once I fight it lmao)#//I am also V intrigued by the Pyro Saurian. The Qucusaur#//The name makes me think of El Cucuy; and considering its design & the description saying it's CURSED...HMMMMMM#//At least I now know which saurs to bond with Natlan oc; and potential three with Natlan ancestry

Current state of the shawl! I know the photo is at a bit of an odd angle, but the shawl is knit on the bias, and will essentially form a long parallelogram. You can see, somewhat anyhow, the open areas that the yarn-overs create in the pattern. I'm pretty happy with the colors so far and the way things are working up. It looks stripier here than I feel like it does in person (other than that transition from the green mini-skein into the knitpicks muse speckled yarn). I'm close ( knock on wood - i swear i am never so superstitious as hen I'm knitting and scared of errors or crises) to finishing this skein of Muse, and will be going on to the first skein of Wildflower Yarn's Unicorn Poop (:DDDDD - the name gets me very time, smile inducing)
I feel like I am the slowest knitter ever, and I am going to be making this thing til idk armageddon, the universe dies its cold death, or I can find a pair of shoes that makes my feet look cute (the first two are more likely - TRUST.) . However, the fabric is soft and so *bouncy*; it is eminently squishable! This color palette too just is a joy to look at. It's a lucky charms marshmallow of a thing, a my little pony pastel princess of a shawl. So, if i can manage to finish it before the end of forever (without any disasters- told you, superstitious when knitting... (¬_¬)' ) I think I just might love curling up in this thing.
#knitting#knitblr#adventures in terrible knitting!#adventures in terrible knitting#this is the shawl that doesn't end - yes it goes on and on my friends - somebody started knitting it not knowing what it was..#and she'll continue knitting it forever just because (she's really slow at knitting ok and don't judge her for that plz)#i'm going to have to think of a name for this shawl - other than the pattern name - which iirc is the palette shawl#palette shawl by expression fiber arts#knit picks muse in glee speckled#wildflower yarn unicorn poop#mini skeins are also wildflower yarn from the 2022 yarn advent calendar they did#i am doing this all in aran/worsted weight yarns currently on size 10 needles#probs coulda gone larger needles still even for more drape but meh i am happy with that i am - but glad i went up from 9s#so - so far. so good (for third cast on of this project - which is why the superstition ok - i has my reasons.)

amnesia: the bunker release obviously turning my thoughts to cherished fun guy of a baker's dozen years, amnesiac daniel of mayfair. cherished game of as many years; meanwhile he Has the ranges: tormentor/tormented, good/evil, noble/petty, scaredscaredscared/bold as brass tacks. not to mention ofc his Some Guy ft. a very dramatic nature, a lot of introspection, but not much to show for it. i do love him & he's a great choice for [i want to do fun sketches] which i also did with call on me on loop which happened to be a song i associated permanently w/him, as well as the reason my art tag is corned beef
#clapping cheering etc He Horney#amnesia#atdd#corned beef#daniel of mayfair#just watching someone's playthrough of a:tb so i dunno All the lore yet. hope there'll be more revelations abt things like Dan's Enthusiasm#further context abt the game if you weren't familiar already which: check it out!!! watch a playthrough. or play it yourself#i actually played through a third? half? the game. got stuck on a puzzle in one run then trapped in the water section later lmao....#it's a game from an indie developer & made a big splash & had Lasting Reverberations: survival horror game shift impact; namely#you have No Weapons in amnesia (though you Can kill the kaernk w/a precisely aimed barrel (or box?) or two (this isn't at all obvious))#and Daniel Gets Scared is a big component of the game. an Enemy shows up & blurred tunnel vision + the [DANGER] audio goes off#v fond memory: once yrs ago i was moving a small grandfather clock & hit smack w/like. What *Sounds* Threatening Here....#then realized the reverberation of the chimes was akin to the kind of low ringing of [daniel's Low Sanitymeter] effects#which! the game Tells You to watch your levels therein b/c enemies will find you more easily when your sanity(tm)'s low or nil#turns out this is completely untrue though lol. the player may be impeded b/c daniel's vision is crap & his mobility will cut out as well#but just as it says; enemies Aren't drawn to you any more than they ever are; they just tell you that Knowing the player will feel it lol#and it works perfectly...as well as ofc daniel having like nightmare visions / ambiguous hallucinations if he's feeling too bad lol#gotta solve a puzz son .or turn on the lights; daniel also being afraid of the dark. even though it's like yeah man in general i'd be scare#meanwhile i always forget frictional had already made penumbra games & the penumbheads would be like...scoff. amnesia easy mode#b/c penumbra doesn't give you any light? you do have a flashlight i believe. at least sometimes. but that's more ltd than a lantern#couldn't be danny w/his tinderboxes; candles; torches; etc. laudanum. blowing shit up. daniel is sososo fun to me#and it all comes back around w/pentiment like ''mithraeum....i heard of em'' fr fr lol alchemy....weird science ooo#the universe HATES him: unless it doesn't (daniel & the shadow) local locals HATE him: baron discovers one weird interdimensional trick#for real for real check out some playthrough of amnesia: the dark descent if you haven't ever seen / heard of it. or play it#we'll have a movie night of it....#corned beeeeeeeeeeeef........i'm the same boy i used to be

Had a resident's son not like an answer I gave him so he proceeded to bitch about me to the housekeeper and described me as "oh ya know, her down the hall...or whatever they are."
#fucking christ have you never seen a woman with short hair before??#like the director of resident care has short hair and you don't dare say that about her#this guy is a piece of shit anyway and treats his mom like she's a burden and yells at her#but seriously wtf just because he didn't like that his mother's toe nails didn't get cut when a nurse was in 2 weeks ago#well first of all it was on my day off so like i don't know what you want me to do about it#and second of all your mom hates if anyone cuts her nails and probably told the nurse no#and third ummm hello just ask my supervisor for the list and find out if she refused or not!! the nurse went room to room!#but no he didn't bother to even check her nails to see if they did in fact look cut or ask my supervisor for the list#just went and bitched about me to the housekeeper (who is also a dickhole by the same name)#and made me out to sound like i'm not even human#if anyone wants to say i have it easy as a gnc woman i'll pop you in the mouth#also just bc a woman is gnc doesn't mean she's nonbinary or a transmasc/trans man#kfi txt#tw transphobia

#29 - Contravention
feat Rihnn
is this any good? no. does my brain like this prompt? no. am i running on sheer spite to just finish this month? yes
"I'm so sorry," the stranger in front of xem says, their hands on their child's shoulders, shushing them gently as they cry, red-faced.
Rihnn picks xemself up off of the ground gingerly, leaning against xir staff. "It was an accident," xe says and xir lips twitch in an attempt at a smile. "Here, I am a healer, let me help," xe tells them, gesturing at the child, pretending that the words are not ash on xir tongue.
The parent smiles at xem, desperately grateful, as xir hands flicker with aether that dances along the child's skin, soothing aches and closing scrapes.
The child, wide-eyed, laughs as if they are being tickled, their tears forgotten.
"Thank you," their parent says and they shift, as if to say more and-
"Good day," xe says with a bow of xir head and xe runs. Xe runs away as much as xir leg will allow, leaning heavily on xir cane and the bile the rises in xir throat is not only because of the fire that burns in xir thigh.
It is only when xe is far enough away from the village that xe stops.
Xe stops and xe collapses against a tree and xe wants to scream. Xir throat is tight and xir hands are shaking and somewhere in the village, Ianna Carver and the child she named for a brother she doesn't remember carry on with their lives and-
"We had a deal, Rob," Rihnn whispers. Xir eyes prickle painfully. "I was supposed to bring you home to them."
It should have been xem...
#my fic#ffxivwrite#snippet#ffxivwrite2023#z'rihnn tia#look i have been looking forward to ffxivwrite all year#and then it came around and idk i think i burnt myself out trying desperately to pass my driving test and write my diss#because the first prompt hit and then the second and the third and still my brain was *meh*#it's still meh#but i was LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS#so i'm pushing through and finishign the month regardless#anyway the more i write the more i'm sorta slotting robyn and rihnn into a qpr lol#rihnn's love for him just shines thorugh constantly - and xe loves all of them theya re xir family but-#but what xe feels for robyn feels different for all that it doesn't immediately feel romantic#anyway robyn had a younger sister and he basically raised her and he sent most of his quest rewards home to her#and she was pregnant when he died and she used to joke she would name her kid for her brother#except she doesn't remember that he exists and she doesn't rocngise rihnn#she named her child robyn cos it was the name already engraved on the crib - gifted by the party - and she liekd it#but she doesn't remember#and fuck if it isn't breaking rihnn's heart cos xe was supposed ot make sure robyn made it back to them#xe promised-#rihnn continues to have a bad time
