cc's be normal challenge difficulty: easy actually, they just have to put in the work which they never want to do

goddamn i miss link dude

the fact that he's played by a shitty person now is fucked up

even if he does come back it wont be the same, mf changed too much.

man :(

nopixel mutuals hold me

he started to lose interest anyways. didnt think he was gonna yknow..... abandon it all and replace it with a shit attitude towards content/content creators in general. like dude what happened to you. genuinely

the fact that he's just going to make the same mistakes over and over again makes it even worse. he hasnt learned his lesson and he's not even willing to learn his lesson.

i miss his old content dude. what happened.

seriously though i know im mostly a comics blog so complaining is expected and is second nature and there is a LOT to complain on (from disgusting writers to character developments being nuked) thats justified but also i love comics so so much.... i love this medium and how unique it is and the story opportunities it gives. i love seeing so many different art styles and writers and how comics can be dialogue or visual heavy (or a balance of both) and how theyre equally important or emotionally moving. i love how many stories and arcs these characters can have. i love when you can tell something is a passion project and when you can tell someone truly loves these characters. i love how long theyve been around and seeing the development of them and the way they been empowering or something to look forward to and bring hope or laughter or excitement since the 1930s. i love that i can not like something in a specific story but still enjoy the character or medium because theres so many different factors in that one story alone but also because theres so many different writers and stories and spin offs and solos and everything to still read and enjoy if that particular one isn't for me. i love how their timelines can be complete bullshit and how sometimes an event is important and sometimes theres no consequences and the only way to find out is to keep reading. i love the melodramas, i love the cheesiness, i love the camp, i love the passion projects, i love the dark themes, i love the slow and developing timelines and arcs, i love the tragedy and humor and horror and action and how many different genres it can have while still in this one medium and still about this one character. i love how any character, no matter how minor, can have a person that loves them and gets excited to see them. i love the community aspect of them (sometimes) and i love how so many different people can enjoy the same comic for different reasons and have their own community of mutuals that enjoy it the way they do. i just love comics so so much.

7. Do they take part in ink battles? What kind and how often?

Absolutely! Inksport leagues are what most of the NSS do outside of agent duties. Theyre a major part of most Inkfish's lives in my writing, a lot of the themes I explore revolve around uh. Sport Movie kinda dealios BAHAHAH (alongside rhe Horrors but shh. When it comes to ocs outside the NSS, Inksports are the main focus)

3s a turf war legend both topside and underground. They were there when the sport was something only the delinquents did, unregulated and dangerous, matches that moved at a fast pace and where they had to leave IMMEDIATELY after or be caught by the authorities. Squid Force eventually found this sport and started sponsoring a safer, more regulated version of it. 3 rose up the ranks all the same (while complaining abt how EASY it is now). Theyve been here since the start. Their splashtag is whispered in awe ans reverence. They are usually followed around by a gaggle of fans or press (please leave them alone qoskw). They still participate in trench turf to satisfy their desire to turf like the good old days. 4 and 8 and Neo3 have no clue about it. They show up with new light scarring and people think its from agent stuff they do on their own -- nope!!

They also play ranked. Tower Control is their favorite mode! Positioning is critical in all modes, but this one has some very specific spots they can exploit and the battles have a flow thats easily readable to them. Its the same route every time! Opposing teams move in pretty specific ways! Its like chess to them. Massages their brain just right.

4s a rising star in the turf leagues. She was great at it back in her hometown in the highlands (the sport has been established here for awhile), but she feels that people are intentionally throwing their matches against her because shes a clan singer. She wanted to have the Real Deal. Moving to Inkopolis, she had a taste of what real turf matches are like...and saw how much more brutal they are. She grit her beak and learned, explosively, in fact, how to play properly. She rose up the ranks quickly the second she found her main weapon class. Shes only ever played topside turf but she is a force to be reckoned with. 3 complains that the new regulations made the game "easier", but someone who grew with the rules can see that its added more complexity. You cant just brute force everything in here. 4 weaves around these added limitations with ease. One can argue shes just as good as 3, if not better...

Her favorite ranked mode is (obviously) Rainmaker. Sneaking around, getting up close and personal with the carrier or their teammates clumped around them is something she greatly enjoys. Holding the nuke itself also gives her quite the rush!! Literally. Shes so beefy that she can carry it faster than the rest of her team (Judd flags her for that, she has to slow herself down to keep the game fair for everyone else). The Rainmaker mode is also reminiscent of some of the ceremonies she does/participates in back in the highlands. Its her job in those ceremonies to call the rain. It involves moving from place to place, carrying a relic that will make her voice heard to the heavens. Despite her not liking how suffocated she was in her homeland, she admits that she misses it, as well.

8 is relatively new to the turf scene. Shes always yearned to be a part of it, back when she was still underground. Now that shes on the surface, she frankly doesnt understand why its such a big deal anymore. Its just a game?? Why are people sweating over this?? And why is all this violence so revered here?? I think her general dislike for combat/conflict may be due to her being raised in a wartime context. She got out of that life, shes not going to go back to it. Still, bc she adores hanging out with 4 (and later 3), she plays the more casual turf war leagues. She occasionally plays ranked modes (splat zones are a favorite), but she tends to stick to the casual side of things. The high octane action and vigilance of the pro leagues makes her uncomfortable...

Neo3 is very new to the turf scene. She compares it to the sacred salmon runs that shes been a lucky witness to (its her only point of reference, bless her hearts). A fight for honor! A fight to the death! And you get to keep living after them? Its the best of both worlds! She enjoys terrorizing the opposing team in any mode. Shes as tenacious and as stubborn as a salmonid that easily slithers over enemy ink. Hitting from blind spots. Easily overwhelms foes with strength and numbers. As annoying as a flyfish. Occasionally, she claws and bites her opponents...which gets her flagged down by Judd. Its fine!! Shes having fun here!

Her favorite ranked mode is definitely Clam Blitz. In salmonid spawning season, the survivors of the runs gather the dropped eggs around the battleground into the nesting grounds to hatch them. Neo3 is reminded of that time as she gathers clams. She defends them as if they were eggs. (And then you see her trying to crack the clams open so she can eat them after the match....)

dragons are not interesting to me if theyre just dumb animals. if youre going to include mythical creatures in your story but they are indistinguishable from mundane beasts of burden then… whats the point? if the targaryen dragons where Just weapons, where Just nukes… then why not make them that? why couldntve the targaryens conquered westeros with fantasy guns. its Important that the dragons are Alive. i think. that theyve been shown rejecting some riders and accepting others. that they have thoughts and opinions.

so, speaking of asoiaf dragon intelligence. i imagine the Average targ dragon has the intelligence of about an octopus or dolphin. ‘the intelligence of a 5 year old human’ or however they try to explain it to lay people. they are intelligent beings with the ability to think and reason. i think their sapience grows with age. when theyre younger they mostly react off instinct, as they age theyre able to Think about things. like humans, just on a much longer timeline.

i have to bring up balerion, cause hes a special case. because of his age and the fact that he was the last of the valyrian born dragons (more on that in a minute), he was uniquely… eloquent. i dont think the average targ dragon/rider bond can directly communicate, but theres still a connection there, a transference of wordless thought and emotion. if the rider is a dreamer that opens things up a bit more. balerion knew, Something, about this barrier of communication and so even with his non-dreamer riders was better able to communicate his feelings, he knew how to get his point across, essentially. so when he did have an actual dreamer rider, they could have full on conversations.

despite how old balerion was and how big he grew, i like to think that for a *valyrian* dragon, he was *small* and *young*. valyrian dragons could live thousands of years and grow the size of cities. their sapience, their ability to Understand, growing alongside them. the westerosi dragons, however, are cut off from their homeland. deprived of the warmth and life of an active volcano. they suffer for it, physically and mentally. we know they started to get smaller. i think they also started to loose their ability to Think. they did start to become more like dumb beasts than intelligent creatures, only reacting out of instinct, never reason. balerion would also be in the unique position to be the only one able to recognize this change, and the reason for it.

Also, in light of the new pmmm movie coming out soon (I am also in love with madoka magicia), which magical girls would you assign to each GF character? It can also be characters from Magia Record! I haven’t caught up to the storylines of all those magical girls yet though.

dude. dude. madomagi is my life blood. the new movie trailers made me hyperventalate. ive been waiting for this since 2016 ..... middle school me is crying rn .............

OOOOO THIS SOUNDS FUN OKAY OKAY so.......

favorite character syndrome makes me want to put madoka and stan in the same category. AND THEY KINDA ARE. they both give up themselves to save the world and the people they love (esp because theyve struggled with self worth issues their entire life). BUT ALSO. god stan's whole thing was chaining himself to gravity falls to try and get ford back for 30 years and ... if that aint homura-core ... i dont know what else is...

going off that fanart you rbed from fillerfarts, ford and homura are. very similar esp personality wise. and also being huge criminals with large arsenals of weaponry. ford's quantom distabilizer and homura's nukes are like. the same to me. same energy

the other characters i feel are kinda hard to associate characters with? no one really slots up neatly from the GF cast to the madomagi cast. kyoko and wendy have surface level similarities, but even then kyoko's a hot head while wendy's whole thing is that she's always chill. i think maybe dipper and mabel come close to the sayaka & kyoko relationship? one trying so hard to live up to the idea of a hero and isolating themself while the other reminds them its okay to not be alone. but even then i think maybe its a stretch from me? kyosaya is so good and so specific. if i twist my brain i could see dipper being like sayaka and mabel being the kyoko to that? if youre pickin up what im puttin down? but also i sound like this

mami is such a funny outlier. only girl to not be cursed with yuri instead shes cursed with Insta Death LOLOLOL. god maybe at most i could associate fiddleford with mami? maybe? but thats me also stretching like an olympian

RAAAGHHGHH i just feel like we got lucky with the stans because theyre the only ones with a weirdo fucked up THING going on. the rest of the gravity falls cast are relatively normal, its just the stans are the crazy people. meanwhile everyone in madomagi has something crazy going on

AS FOR THE MAGIA RECORD GIRLS!!!! HONESTLY ??? i uh. erm. i dont really care for magia record (gets boo'd off the stage). ITS A CUTE MOBILE GAME FOR SURE some of the designs are fun but i feel like its just a jank add on to the madomagi story. like im glad its not canon, its just one of the Many Timelines homura goes through that branches off to a happy ending of defeating walpurgisnacht (in the game. the anime is different). i watched the anime and tried to get into the mobile game but it just didnt have the same punch. nothing will ever grab me the way homura and madokas freak situationship did, especially cus everyone in magia record is so Normal by comparison LOLOL

but also this girls design screams candy to me

[stuck-in-the-ghost-zone]

OKAY. OKAY. WINTERS FAMILY TORMENT NEXUS. as i've said before this is all REALLY vague rough outlines bc i wanted to bounce it all back n forth with u. but. what i have:

>winters family (mark & ashe & fridged mom/wife) live in a location hit by the simurgh

>mark is at work when she arrives. something horrific happens at home. maybe his wife is injured or hurt, but not killed. ashe (7/8/9) triggers. whatever his powers are, they. do Not help heal his mom. in fact the opposite.

>mark tears back home asap instead of leaving as soon as he hears her song, actively choosing to stay in her effect zone for his family. finds newly triggered baby ashe & the rest of that scene.

>theyve spent too long in the affected zone to be allowed to go free, especially since ashe triggered from it. mark nukes his whole past life & ashe's to escape without undergoing all the protocols. he spends ages doing shit work to support him & ashe bc theyre both legally dead, ends up working for overlord, manages to get enough of a fake past to get through cauldron background checks & get powers? it'll pay so much better than the grunt work he's doing now & he has to support ashe (powered)(legally dead)(would probably be executed if anyone Found Out)....

anyway to me the trickster is like. the endgame of this specific simurgh rube goldberg. somehow it doesn't end horrifically, for once! but it gets. bad. the fact that they're simurgh survivors is always looming over their heads. its why mark fucking freaks out when ashe joins the wards. literally have nothing more specific than this though u gotta help me put meat on these bones!!!!! STOP "being responsible" and "doing work" and stuff START thinking incessantly abt nhw ashe!!!!! i don't even know his powers bc i have no clue how he triggered!!!! augh. god. them..... mods torture that blonde man in the most narratively satisfying and fucked up way possible!!!!

QUIT YOUR JOB JOIN MY EMO WARDS !!!!!!!!!!!!! god dude god dude I'm gonna be thinking about this all fucking DAY . who needs to be responsible and have a job. not me!!!! FUCK !!!!!!!! dude im just. thinking abt mark being at work getting the notice to evacuate and starting to hear the song and. bc it's important to me that he's a little bit of a coward. it takes him longer than he will ever admit to decide to go back to his family. he definitely hesitates and hates himself for it because. what if he had gotten there 10 minutes earlier! who fucking knows! he never will!!

god man I'm just thinking about. that scene where they're in the hospital waiting to hear back about noelle and the person (ai?) at the desk is giving them the rundown of all the containment procedures and handing them paperwork and asking them if they can pay for the medical care. how fucked up would that be to hear after you're in the midst of losing everything. mark winters the universes most hated man. I looooooove the satisfaction in thinking about that snap decision where he goes from "relatively normal if a little emotionally repressed but otherwise does his best suburban dad" to "my wife is dead and my son is fucked up and there's this fucking sound in my head that won't go away I'm about to erase everything and break several laws in order to get us out of here" and how that eventually leads into. supervillain. it's just soooooooo. sickos haha yessss the downfall of this fucking miserable blonde guy. when do you think he consciously made that choice. he heard "you're never going to get out of here and live a normal life again" do you think he just . sat with that for a while. ashe unresponsive either due to shock or fear or the trauma of triggering/whatever his powers are and mark just has to sit there. by himself. like what the fuck am I gonna do now. auaghghghghhhh I need 2 make him so miserable forever. fuck that guy i hate his ass (<< me when I lie)

I THINK . I NEED TO SIT FOR A WHILE AND FINISH THESE NEXT COUPLE CHAPTERS AND PROCESS A LITTLE MORE BEFORE I MAKE A SOLID DECISION ON ASHES POWERS. but you knowwwww it's gonna be some fucked up horror shit. it has to be. it has to be something fucked up enough that mark forbids him from using his powers and keeps him . at home isolated for his own good. but not TOO fucked that he wouldn't be able to join the wards.

actually speaking of. HOW THE FUCK DOES HE JOIN THE WARDS. I know mark basically fucking erased their whole identity and everything but. there's noooo way the prt would let this kid join them. right?????? right????. how the hell would that even be a possibility with all the precautions in place for simurgh survivors. THEY EXPLODED THAT ONE CAPE GUYS HEAD BECAUSE HE STAYED IN PROXIMITY FOR A LITTLE BIT TOO LONG. maybe it's unofficial. maybe he never Officially joins them but he sneaks out while mark is gone and meets the boys somewhere and they become friends out of costume first. and then they learn about his powers and ashe is like "I can help!" and helps them like. as a rogue or something. but hes never registered as an official cape. is this anything. im thinking about him so much what the fuuuuuck have we done. what have we done !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[the-owl-tree]

about to tear somebodys head off we really almost had an interesting political drama story that while flawed would have been more interesting than even more starclan nonsense and now theyve gona and nuked it with a travel book, starclan nonsense, and whatever the hell they SPAYING FROSTPAW thing is

i'm trying to remind myself leaks of have been inaccurate and misleading before and to wait for the full book before i get too annoyed but man. that ending. (sorry anon im using ur ask to complain even more. i'm so annoyed)

like...if it's accurate, doesn't this effectively render this new addition to the code useless? why would anyone ever want to challenge a leader if it means you can be exiled? congratulations authors, you've successfully given the cats democracy and then made it so the most high ranking cats can successfully kick you out if you actually do challenge them. who would ever enforce this code if the leader can just tell you to fuck off and get back in line, there's literally no one to enforce this. i don't get it, and i don't think i'm meant to be seeing tigerheartstar or puddleshine as bad for this because this whole scene is just about how Smug and Bad berryheart is. we're meant to see this as a Le Epic Win for Autocracy. remember kids! starting a group that violently opposes outsiders and enforces clan purity is, well, not great but the REAL evil thing in this situation is disagreeing with your leader planting warriors in a rival clan. thank fuck we got this sicko out of here before she could disagree with him again.

why is THAT what she gets exiled for. come the fuck ooooonn.

there r so many things torchwood doesnt bother to explain and i wonder about them. i could make a list but currently im thinking abt carys not killing owen. obvi they just couldnt kill him off but i wish there was an in-universe explanation of why, bc by all means within the context of the episode she shouldve. i once saw someone say its bc hes trans and yanno what ill take it but within what the writers were thinkin themselves i woulda loved an explanation. like maybe the alien in her sniffed him n went 'atrocious vibes No Thanks' FSHJKFD (although that wouldnt make sense bc some of the guys she kills had worse vibes than owen). or maybe an alien had recently splashed some goop on him and it threw his smell off and the sex alien was like 'u smell weird Ew'. or maybe it's tied to whatever shit he's got going on w the weevils??? like i wish there was some kind of canonical explanation. its crazy to me several of the torchwood members have weird shit going on with them and its never explained. gwen n ianto are both mildly psychic. ok, they grew up on the rift and theyre empaths, fine, whatever. wtf's going on w owen. shawty whats ur problem. besides the human mental illness like what are the aliens sensing thts scaring them / making them not want to be near him. maybe it is the mental illness maybe his unmedicated toxic ass is just that scary. the weevils can connect w him telepathically cuz hes been studying them or smth n close proximity n then theyre just scared shitless by all his inner angst bc weevils dont experience shit like that. like imagine being a kinda-animal living comfortably n then u get whammied with the inner turmoil of a dude who feels 500 emotions a minute. i'd whine and growl too. this turned into yet another 'whats the deal w owen n the weevils' rant but oh well. actually i would take that explanation like that one or a few weevils bonded with owen bc he studies them and spends more time with them than any other human n then bc they can all broadcast shit to each other hes familiar to all of them but they also cannot handle the shit hes got going on and then once the whole death thing happens its Worse. fucked up weevil jesus but hes accidentally nuking them w suffering the likes of which theyve never seen. oh i dont know i just dont know

[msparp-hell]

i like hex and all, but i'm beginning to get really fucking annoyed. first, nuking vpn users to combat ban evaders. one hundred percent their prerogative, sure. just annoying. but to then just nuke all t-mobile users in california is fucking wild. why am i and my friends getting punished bc YOU can't figure out how to ban someone. i was chipping into their ko-fi but i will not be doing so going forward until this is dealt with

as easy as i know it is to whack-a-mole a ban evader, hex is literally just one person running an outdated knockoff of msparp so theres a slightly usable holdover of a roulette site for people to use. like yes it sucks, yes its not a good solution, yes id personally do more, but theyve obviously got career and financial and other shit to deal with so im not gonna like hate them for it lmao

[the-crimson]

…

Not to make this all about my blorbo but i really hope this is the final straw that causes bbh to finally drop dteam

Like dteam is going to nuke themselves sooner or later they are a sinking ship and im worried bbh is going to be dragged down with them

Like dteam is like family to him, theyve been making content together for nearly a decade. I understand how difficult it can be to accept someone you love is not the person you thought they were but clinging to them will only drag you down too

Two of three members have been accused of sexual harassment/assault. One by another cc which holds significantly more weight unfortunately than fan accusations. Some times you need to amputate a limb to survive.

Please please please bbh dont defend george. Please

[namethatghostling]

part of me cant help but feel bad for the lgbtq staff members that are stuck dealing with the aftermath of their raging manbaby ceo, but no amount of corporate-speech apologies is going to make me forgive the tumblr team as a whole, in part because its not my forgiveness to give.

i see other tme and particularly cis queer folks talking like "oh phew so glad there are some good gays on the team so i can feel safe here on tumblr again" and its like. YOU were never the ones in danger! certainly not to the degree that trans women were and ARE! you are out here talking about how relieved you are while tma peoples blogs are still being nuked, their content still being falsely flagged, their inboxes still overflowing with violent bigotry! it has literally only increased since the matt incident and the best apology post in the world would not undo that damage!

imo the absolute least staff could do right now is reinstate the blogs that were taken down due to their bullshit moderation system, followed by a massive and visible effort to make amends with the communities theyve harmed. and even if they do, its certainly not up to tme folks, who are again literally not the people being targeted here, to forgive them.

[plasticfreckles]

how aforementioned fictional men from this post would react to the fact that my prof failed my paper WITHOUT EVEN READING IT

(we're still in love obvs bc ive had so many breakdowns about this over the weekend that theyve kinda fused into one long-winded breakdown just lemme have this my sanity is holding on by a thread and its getting thinner by the second)

jaal ama darav: would still not have this problem, but would let me cry into his chest tentacles and go to my university and cause a scene my guy

liam kosta: well guess what bitch we're having takeout and boba and comfort movies and SO MANY BLANKETS AND STRING LIGHTS

saren arterius: would have either bribed prof and/or uni so this would not happen, but if it DID happen theyve got another thing coming honey

thane krios: ok now he'll help. help me write long sentences and also intimidate the prof bc wow are you a dishonorable shitbag sweet chalupa jesus

zevran arainai: murder now? too late already did it you're welcome oh they already marked it failed in the system? no problem let me just [daggers the servers] now lemme smash

banck trevelyan: we are now having a mental breakdown together we're writing a new paper and it only says [prof is a whorechild] its very cathartic

dorian pavus: the audacity on this professor. runs them out of their job faster than they can say "failed"

jackie welles: ok now they're getting beat up within an inch of their life he said he'd catch a case if the prof didn't let me pass and they didn't so now he's gotta back his words up with action its really on the prof your honor

johnny silverhand: assuming the place had not been nuked prior to this event would do it then even if he told me to shut up, stop crying and cowgirl up earlier. (could also just mean you're too dumb for this degree shit. - well YEAH but they could've figured it out BEFORE im about to start my thesis paper thankyouverymuch)

goro takemura: that would mean that really, the arasaka goon he got to write my paper for me failed, so they're getting run out of their job so far they may as well just live in a cardboard box. also blackmail the prof

river ward: damn girl that sucks. need a hug? want me to run for another pizza? drive you to a different library? like tell me what you need and youll have but you'll need to tell me (river i dont KNOW what i need) damn girl that sucks. need another hug?

dorn il-khan: the sucker is so dead he'll find a way to get into lunia and kill them again bc obviously dying once wasn't enough for them to get their shit together

rasaad yn bashir: would go to the prof and just talk at them until they read the fucking paper

data: honestly would just download the grading guide and do it himself also add the fact i was failed without having been assessed into the profs file dont worry about it its fine

thranduil oropherion: bitch NOT ONLY did they assign THE QUEEN a paper they FAILED her?! lemme drag their ass to mordor ill drop their disgusting head into the firepits myself and it will not be attached to their body anymore

kim nam joon: damn girl that sucks. want me to check if there's a place you can report it to? because that doesn't sound normal. are we sure they're not on a power trip and you just got to deal with it? anyway we'll fix this together and you'll pass don't you worry about a thing

dustin bates: wow they FAILED you without doing their fucking WORK? [drops track about aint-shit opportunist bastards and capitalism commercializing education like bitch i paid 160€ in this assumed free education country for a degree the least you could do is do your fucking job]

the apocalypse dj: ["accidentally" backflips into the prof so they drop their notebook and it breaks wow looks like karma's a bitch huh]
