this book im reading is giving every indication that it takes place in the 1920/30s and yet. and fucking yet the main character starts singing a taylor swift song. get out of my face. please just fucking decide what time period your book takes place in instead of doing this. it also has some of the dumbest takes and brings too much dumb internet discourse straight onto the pages. the main character actually said the line "or maybe he's gaslighting me?" shut up

#i think im getting too old for YA but this is still just so bad #and yet i can't look away #ngl i got this secondhand as a fairyloot edition bc it came out in the YA box after i switched my subscription to the adult book #and the early access sale for book 2 is coming up so i thought this was a good time to read it in case i wanted to buy the matching edition #of the sequel. which will not be happening. IF i decide to read it (which. i probably won't) I'll get the library book #text post #also to clarify cause idk if my tags were confusing:#i didn't buy the book to decide if i wanted to take part in the early access sale #i bought it a few months back bc i was genuinely excited about the release and was bummed i missed out on the pretty fairyloot edition #and found it on pango book for like $11 and ordered it #the book 2 release motivated me to finally pick it up today #alas. it is a huge let down

Reuniting with a distorted past.

Extra:(New personality tested gone wrong)

wanted to play with rin living in the aftermath aus aswell and had these drawings laying around to share so yay

Panel 1: Was buried alive.

Comic 1: Who are you supposed to be?

new friends

Comic 2: Misguided protection.

obito still sensing the warning signs of rin losing her temper. anyways they proceeded to be dragged into the ocean by rin like some sea monster

Comic 3: Finding out (Now what will you do?)

obito is harshly brought back from his delusions because now its not just kushina but rin too who he needs to ripped out the tail beast from

#naruto #naruto fanart #kakashi hatake #rin nohara #obito uchiha #naruto sukea #fanart #art #my art #sketch #drawing #digital art #hope i can add something new and if not may i shall add fuel to the fire for rin!! :)#So Rin loses ALL of her memories forever (kinda)#the only thing that remains for sure is the feeling of missing something that she'll never reach it again #she's alone and is left to roam directionless until she meets an elderly civilian that is also alone #she stays with her for a year+ but she passes away. But Rin with her new identity decides to walk forward (with love comes pain #but to love at all was the greatest thing to her.) She cherishes her new memories and won't let it stop her from moving on #inbetween this time frame she meets isobu in her mind after he gains enough form within her (who is also without memories)#Now WAY LATER she meets Sukea who looks like he's about to panic and she tries to help (which uh doesnt work too well)#but then Sukea joins her on her travels (sending minato an letter through his summons of rin being alive and forgetting the mission)#they both wander around (he doesnt know how to bring up their past) but then obito appears (always at the wrong times)#At first glance he's pissed but then realizes that this isnt fake AND its both the worse thing yet best thing to ever happen #Now Rin thinks she made two new friends who give her feelings of warmth but they both also reminded her of something old she thinks #PS Minato and Kushina are freaking out back in the village but can't do anything about it (Obito hasn't acted on his plans yet so yes)

Izuna's Secret Technique

Shinobi: Seems like you have two of the world's most powerful men wrapped around your finger. Madara's your brother, but how did you manage to tame the Senju's White Demon? Izuna: *Smirks* I suppose it's a combination of both intelligence and charisma. Using those two things you can persuade anybody.

~Later~

Tobirama: No Izuna: -lease please please please please please please please Tobirama: ... Izuna: *Breathes in* Tobirama: Okay fine.

#tobiizu #he's a little bit stupid your honour #look I hc Izuna as cunning and competent and sly #but you've gotta balance it out with a fair amount of sheer dumbheadedness #is it true stupidity tho if it works?#what Izuna learned growing up with Madara: be annoying and or adorable enough and you can get away with anything #somehow he has yet to be proven wrong #in my ideal world this somehow also is what lead to peace between the clans #He decided to be annoying and/or adorable at Tobirama #Which somehow causes Tobirama to go: 'well I can't NOT fuck him'

MDZS x Hollow Knight Part 3: The Rebugging

Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 4

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #hollow knight #mdzs au #mdzs hollow knight au #Thecornermushroom's fanart re-awoke the art of my brain where the bugs live. I drew this in a mad frenzy in the middle of the night.#I'll never be the same again. In the most positive way ever I think I have been permanently changed by that art.#I will eventually do the reverse crossover but for now - take some extra bugs!#It is so wild looking back at the past parts - I really do love drawing in this style but I'm far more comfortable with it now!#I am just vibrating with so much art energy. I am loose and in your vicinity. You can't catch me. I have bugs to show people.#This is a bit of a time capsule considering that these are references to where pd-mdzs the comic is at in the story.#More notes: Wen Zhuliu is an ant and Wang Lingjiao is a firefly.#Yes I have yet to explain the juicebox. We are a handful of comics away from that pay off.

walking through lucanis' mind prison. the tam lin of it all

#his mind keeps changing forms and you just have to show him you won't let go of him #it doesn't even really matter what you say to him just that you're consistently there to say it. your voice is a comfort. im in pain #I'm having so many feelings about like... rook can't be here. because of all things in the world rook means 'safe'. what if I exploded #what if I just shattered into a thousand pieces and was swept away by the wind actually #'it's better that I stay here than risk losing you' is such pitch perfect trauma logic. freeze logic specifically #on some level he seems to think he keeps rook safe like. existentially. by staying here #it's heartbreaking child magical thinking that makes me wonder like. has he basically been in a place like this inside #ever since his parents died? before that? the ossuary is just new set dressing the underlying logic is OLD. and very very sad to me #'I keep everyone safe by staying here'#(and then the perfect hilarity of having an actual demon be like 'ROOK. YOU TALK TO HIM HE NEVER LISTENS TO ME'#tfw your inner demon gets worried enough to stage an intervention and get you therapy whether you want it or not lmao)#dragon age #dragon age spoilers #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age: the veilguard #rook x lucanis #lucanis dellamorte #rookanis #rye staying mostly in gentle professional mode for this one b/c this is literally his training #('I may not be batting a hundred at being a person but I DO know how to deal with fade shenanigans! not to worry I've got you')#except in that last part with the illario mind ghost where he roundaboutly admits 'I need you I don't know how to do this without you'#in rye speak that is very big it's like. third base of his soul or something. we do not ask for things for ourselves in this house #(because we already know we will not receive anyway so that sounds both humiliating and ultimately pointless. no thank you!)#and yet. the things we'll admit for love #the feeling that some of the things varric did for rye immediately post-exile rye is paying forward with lucanis now. don't look at me

Sisko/Garak/Bashir where sometimes Ben's got two subs and sometimes Julian's got two Doms (and a lot of the time it's a much greyer line than that).

I really like the idea of scenes where Ben makes Garak dom for Julian. Imagine Julian being into kinks that Ben's not comfortable doing, and so he orders Garak to do them for him instead.

And also, I can imagine that initially Garak is unsure in himself about whether he can provide the necessary aftercare, which is something that Ben is eager and happy to give. And so it helps Garak relax more on occasions where he wants to enjoy his sadistic side, because he doesn't have to worry about overdoing it, he knows he has oversight and is in fact doing it because both his partners want it from him.

#Siskarashir #This worded better in my brain #But yes I am trying to do an ITPM parallel with their roles and their sex lives 😅#Julian Bashir #Benjamin Sisko #Elim Garak #(bonus: pre-negotiated scene where Julian's tied up and Ben's “called away” and tells Garak to look after him - but not to touch him)#(but of course Garak “can't resist”)#(... This started well in my head but I haven't got to the end yet apparently)#(hey ho)#(this is why I can't write threesomes - I only care about what's happening to Julian...#...and I've realised there'd have to be some payoff on the Siskarak side oops 😅)#I'm rambling #Let's stop #Julian au concepts #Wsb #My trek musings

Still thinking about how Clover on the No Mercy Route likely would've given up their quest for vengeance and lived with Martlet had Axis not told them that he killed Integrity. The only real difference between Aborted No Mercy Run Clover and No Mercy Run Clover are a few more destroyed robots and the knowledge of what Axis did, which sent their LOVE skyrocketing to LV 19.

Look at them. They can't even look Ceroba in the eye after they inflict the final blow.

#undertale yellow #personally i see Clover's journey on the No Mercy Route as them feeling immense guilt and disgust with themself for killing monsters #but they HAVE to. it's self-defense. they're monsters. any one of them could have killed one of the other children. anything they can #tell themself to justify their own actions. but they can't lie to themself. not entirely. on some level they know what they're doing is #wrong and that's why they gradually lose their ability to recognize themself. and when they get to Axis that's when they're at their most #stressed. they just slaughtered dozens of monsters. they watched the monsters around them (like Angie and Gilbert and Dina) act like people #would under threat/treat them like they would a monster. they terrorized this robot throughout the Steamworks. maybe if they kill this one #they'll feel a sense of fulfillment/finality (they won't. deep inside they know they won't). and then Axis admits to having killed one of #the kids they're looking for and suddenly everything clicks into place. killing him feels like the easiest thing in the world. why were #they so caught up on remorse? just because they got distracted by a society more complex/civil than they thought it'd be? they're all #still kid-killers at the end of the day no matter how nice they all acted.#even then fighting against martlet they still have to deliberately dehumanize her by calling her ''the enemy'' in the first part and remind #themself of what they're fighting for/their freedom and home on the Surface in the second half. their SOUL blasts (which are a #manifestation of them/their will) barely do anything to her unlike Axis and Asgore who are brutally killed by one blast. i think Clover #genuinely liked her (a worthy opponent/they search her memories for a reason to hate her) and regretted killing her but they felt like they #had to. no loose ends.#take away the whole LOVE jump and finding out that Axis killed Integrity and what you have left is a kid who thought they knew what the #right thing to do was yet killed dozens for nothing. they're deeply remorseful and want a chance to better themself. one that Martlet would #offer bc she would see some good in them.#anyways. fat paragraphs in the tags once again #uty analysis #char: clover #yippee. you can see how badly i did in this fight with my remaining hp. jokes on you i beat her first try (this time around)

Because we went to Renfaire I imagined all the OCs going to Renfaire but Ralph and Khlo seem the absolute most likely out of all of the OCs to actually go if there was a night time weekend. Ralph is a Satyr (because I straight up think it's hot no other reason because he'd probably otherwise definitely be a cool warrior) and Khloe is basic tavern wench chic. <3

I've never wanted to follow orders so bad in my life

#COMMAND ME MAXIMUS PLEASE I AM BEGGING YOU #he's so in charge and authoritative yet humble and kind #this man i swear #look how unbelievably attractive he is #look at that kind gentle face #those soft eyes as he looks at someone who is like a father to him AAUGGHHHH #and his neck!!!! i'm never over it!!!#WHY is he so crafted by the gods #specifically to my tastes #every time i see him in his armor all i can think is “i wish i were taking that off of him so we could make some sweet love in his tent”#i NEED to be the general's wife #y'all don't even know #the level to which i am obsessed with him #the sun rises and sets for him alone in my heart #i am withering away with need for him I JUST #I CAN'T STAND IT ANYMORE HE'S TOO FLAWLESS #I ADORE HIM IN EVERY WAY A MAN CAN BE ADORED #gladiator #maximus #maximus decimus meridius #gladiator 2000 #russell crowe

(so... uh... how far into dai do you have to get before it starts being good?)

#i thought da2 was worse than dao in almost every way #repetitive undetailed environments boring combat less player influence over the story less customization of the player character etc.#but it had one shining redeeming quality #and that was the characters #who i actually cared about more than the characters in dao #and lucky for da2 characters are the most important aspect of a game (for me at least)#and good characters can carry an otherwise mediocre game pretty damn far #but i have yet to find the redeeming quality of dai #i mean... it's pretty i guess? though i still needed mods to make a character that looks decent bc the character creator was lacking #but the environment is pretty and detailed i will give it that #but i've been at this eight hours and almost every quest is just go get an item and then go bring it to someone?#there's really minimal story to these quests #and the characters seem interesting but i've barely had opportunities to talk to them #even the ambient party dialogue seems significantly rarer than it was in either dao or da2 #why should i care about people i'm not getting to know?#also do they really just go with 'templars and mages are both equally evil & crazy and we're gonna need to just kill all of them you see'#surely that can't be the whole conclusion to the templar-mage war?? there has to be more right??#i'll keep playing bc hopefully it gets better #to be fair i didn't actually like da2 until act 2 #i liked dao right away but it still took a bit to get really good #so i think there's still potential here #we will see i suppose #dragon age #dai #dragon age critical

#there's a vacancy at one of the larger galleries in town #and I'm absolutely qualified for the position #yet I cannot bring myself to apply #I'm like 2 months away from utter destitution I can't really afford to be picky #but I've met their head curator multiple times and I've met the owner/director like 3 times over the last 2 years... and they have bad vibes #it sounds superficial but I just do not want to work with them if I can help it #idk what the play is here #the Zeitz also famously has a toxic work environment so maybe that's just par for the course with some of the more prestigious institutions #working there would look good on my cv...#but after this last year and a half I don't know if I have the emotional energy to grin and bear it in a hostile environment #idk #I've been thinking about it all weekend and hoped I would've come to a decision by now #but idk.....

yo congrats on that P rank :D

⭐ STAR P-RANK SCREEN REAL??? ⭐

Oh my gosh, thank you!!! For context, last night I completed the Noise Update and absolutely refused to take down Pizzahead until I P-Ranked him— it took a little over an hour of nonstop attempts, and I only ended up making it to phase three two or three times, though I'm pleased to announce that I've P-Ranked all bosses as both Peppino and The Noise!

I thought I'd doodle a quick something to go along with the superb P-Rank screen you drew! While I've still yet to conceptualize Star Tower's P-Rank screen (I have a general gist of how it's going to look and I've only drawn complete art for the D-Rank screen), I'm absolutely going to reference facets of your own if I may, especially the star spotlight; that's probably my favorite detail!!! ⭐👾✨

#Mail Time with Star #⭐ Star's Art ⭐#Star Tower #Pizza Tower #Pizza Tower AU #The Noise #Star Splitscreen #Peppino Spaghetti #Aseprite #Sprite Art #Coolness #Seriously though I can't get over how cool that P-Rank screen is. I deeply appreciate you drawing such a cool piece!!!#Initially I wasn't going to P-Rank Pizzahead at all seeing the third phase includes a particularly distressing sprite #Those who know know. Those who don't... it involves the Doise and I suggest you not go looking for it if you're sensitive like me #But I just felt COMPELLED to go out with a bang once I reached Pizzahead. And besides I could always look away once said sprite comes up #And seeing as I barely made it to the third phase I didn't have to see it repeatedly #I feel like I have it in me to 101% the game as Peppino and Noise though it's going to take a lot of practice #I've yet to match my bestie Pan's gamer panache in P-Ranking every level #But for now? P-Ranking every boss as both characters will do just fine!

comic fans aren’t saying that we hate the fact that cherik are in the mcu we just hate how badly it’s going to affect the comics (and how it’s CURRENTLY affecting the comics) Charles and erik’s relationship is one of the staples of x men and they’re literally ruining it before our eyes since they’re bringing them to the mcu, and let’s be honest the comics are 10x more important for these characters then the movies (changes in the comics can change how the characters are portrayed in the movies so who knows maybe they’ll bring lilandra to doomsday to fight off the cherik gay stuff like what happened to the fox movies ahem ahem charles and moira stuff) It’s not only affecting cheriks dynamic and relationship ofc but also the other characters and where the storyline of the modern comics is heading!! so much regression has been going on!! the comics have been backpedaling into old storylines that we’ve heard thousands of times to appeal to the movie watchers + 97 fans.

now i dont want to say we're SCREWED INDEFINITELY..... waters are def rocky is all ima say...

#//ro/gue//n/eto talk #long post #snap chats #good morning everyone i just finished my presentation jvERLKJEALKJ #uhhhh do i wanna break this down last ask said it best lets just hold hands and get ready for the next some years #i think the most important take away from these asks though is that its undeniable the movies impact the comics #i mean how many changes were a result of the movies: some were good but a lot of them were like What #and its clear the movies have much more of a reach wtih general audiences than the comics thats not hard to argue #so its fair to be concerned with how the movies handle things i think thats fair #especially when there have been comments about how the comics were changed specifically for the movies or to prepare for them #i do want to say im edgy on the idea the comics and movies are trying their hardest to 180 cherik but that might be me being in denial #im in denial because i refuse to believe such a bold and What decision would be made but the tinfoil hat is tinfoiling i will say #we can't speak definitely on the movie and how it's going to handle the x-men yet so that's my sliver of hope its not totally over #i cant imagine it'd be that bad... not any worse than what we've got from manhunt atp..#in defense of moira in the movies at least its more one-sided than reciprocated even after the cherik stuff was supposed to calm down #buuuut yeah i think thats the most i got to say on the matter.... lets all just hold hands now ok thank you.. my head hurts..#looking strictly at manhunt yeah the future of comics is not. optimistic. everyone was just written so. What #ive always said that i just care that the stories and characters are good and how its going so far everything just feels so hastily done #but it cant be bad forever tho right... right.....
