Would be waiting for acheron brainrot ramble here

Is it time for Acheron brainrot ramble? It’s time for Acheron brainrot ramble. Prepare for the most stream of consciousness post ever, I had so much fun writing this she has taken over my consciousness and puppeted me for my own ends, and commanded me to demonstrate how peak she really is. So enjoy, hopefully I can get others to love Acheron just as much as I do.

I think there are three reasons why I like Acheron 1) she’s really fucking cool 2) I love characters who guide/mentor others 3) She’s charming as hell.

Hoyo you aren’t allowed to make characters this good.

The music in her trailer, her aesthetic, the amount of fire fucking one liners. THE COLOR RED (I’ll get into it)

“Find me, your end, my origin.” Who cooked here who wrote this who’s the chef please where’s the restaurant I’m eating this up

“On the still waters of oblivion, I guide the wandering souls” GRAHAJDJWJKSSW YES YOU DO OH MY GOD I CANT PUT INTO WORDS HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS LINE SHUT UP EVERYONE SHUT UP. Like she literally is at the edge of existence fighting to help others find their future, I just. RAAAA

SHE CUTS A BLACK HOLE IN HALF?? HUHH AUGHH a black hole that’s the manifestation of meaninglessness in the universe, and she goes “nah” and fucking obliterates it?!!?

“I weep for the departed” Those who have died are gone, and slowly losing themselves even further. For decades, centuries, millennia, even, Acheron has witnessed this, and still cries for them, still guides them to the other side, even if the task itself is meaningless, because someone should do it, someone has to do it, and that someone is HER.

She saves Aventurine, she saves the Trailblazer, she saves the entirity of Penacony. Someone blessed by the manifestation of nonexistent dedicates her life to giving others a reason to live.

Aventurine asks her why people should bother living, if the dice are always weighted in a certain outcome, then why should we keep going? Aventurine asks her why people should bother living if the universe is meaningless?

He fully expects her to say people shouldn’t.

But Acheron doesn’t do that. The dice are weighted against us. Not just in game, but in reality itself. We will all die, you will die, the people you care about will die, I might die, it remains to be seen. However, before that inevitable ending, before the curtain finally closes, we have so many choices to make. If the ending is the same for everyone, it doesn’t matter, and Acheron tells Aventurine this.

Because the Nihility envelops everyone equally, the universe is equally meaningless for everyone, nobody is the special someone destined to have a destiny. Therefore, it doesn’t matter. Aventurine has no reason to live. And Aventurine has no reason not to live. She tells him his time hasn’t come, because it hasn’t. Until that dice roll, until his final breath, Aventurine can still make choices and he can still choose to live for himself, and that’s the answer Acheron gives him.

But she knows that’s not enough. Aventurine will still struggle to live for himself, after all he’s been through, after the mountain of expectations and hopes and dreams piled onto him. So she tells him his friend has already given him the answer. Aventurine pulls out the note written by Dr. Ratio. It doesn’t give him a plan, doesn’t inform him of what expectations he has for him, doesn’t list every single reason why Aventurine should keep going. Ratio tells Aventurine to stay alive and keep on living, because he doesn’t need anything more than that, there isn’t anything more than that. Her caring about Aventurine, Ratio caring about Aventurine, that’s enough to keep him going, because other peoples love is enough of a reason to exist, universe be damned.

existing. The Existence. AKSJAKKSNDKKWEN.

Like you don’t understand, you don’t understand. ACHERON IS ENVELOPED IN THE MEANINGLESSNESS OF THE UNIVERSE BEFORE SHE FINDS ITS EXISTENCE, ITS VALUE, ITS MEANING. Even if it can never be achieved, Acheron is willing to destroy herself completely as she walks farther and farther into the Nihility trying to find the Existence, even if it takes every from her she will find it. Only by giving up her existence can Acheron find the Existence and kill the Nihility. Only by sacrificing her own life and giving up her own meaning can she give it to others.

Red. She tells the trailblazer that when they can no longer see the world in anything but black and white, there will be a brief flash of Red for them.

Red is the Existence. Red is the color of her blade that allowed her to cut that black hole in half. Red is the only color left when she unsheathes her sword. Red is the color of the tears she cries. Red is the color of the words she speaks to us that truly matter.

Red is the color she cuts into reality. In a world of black and white, in which all the light has been swallowed by IX, and the path ahead is blurry, Acheron illuminates the universe’s future in bright red, creating color, creating life, creating Existence in a world devoid of it.

We will encounter the Nihility along our journey, just as we would encounter every other aeon. The world will seem meaningless, and it will be devoid of color, but when the Trailblazer needs it the most, there will be Red. A reason to keep going, a reason to exist, a reason to keep on Trailblazing, because the path of the Trailblaze’s end is also at the Existence, and we will meet Acheron there again. Whether that color will come from us or her remains to be seen, but it will be there for us when we need it.

However, I think we/the Trailblazer will be alone. As that flash of red isn’t the only thing Acheron tells the Trailblazer.

Only when left alone can people pick themselves up. Only when help is absent can people truly fight for themselves. Only when you are alone, can you truly understand your existence.

That doesn’t mean other people don’t matter, that you have to walk the world alone, that you can only exist devoid of others. Quite the opposite actually, other people can be your reason to exist, something to help keep you going. Acheron knows this, which is why she directs Aventurine to Ratio’s note. That’s the meaning he can find in a meaningless universe.

Moreover, people help each other, they provide the tools other people need to exist, the anchors that ground people in reality, the reason why you might want to wake up in the morning, they create the things and ideas that you need and enjoy. It’s when you are ripped of these comforts, stripped of the things that make you want to keep going, is when people fight for their existence. As in a world devoid of everything, can you truly appreciate the things you have, and acknowledge that since there is now nothing, you are the only something. When there is no one there to save them, fools pick themselves up, and that is Existence.

I love Acheron. I love her silly amnesiac tendencies, I love her beautiful design, I love that she’s a Mei counterpart, but most of all, I love what she stands for.

Acheron is the indomitable human spirit personified, she quite literally chooses to exist in the face of absolute nothing. When the world loses all color, does she paint reality in a bright red with her sword, writing her own destiny with each and every slash.

And for that, I will always adore her.

I've started playing Potion Permit, and so far it's one of my favorite games I've messed around with, but the most big brained move the devs made was giving you a dog on day 1, and then making that dog able to track NPCs and lead you directly to them no matter where they are in the town.

[heyyesimtrash-whatofit]

Hiya J!

I'm obsessed with your Docpocalypse AU, its so hilarious!

tease tidbit tuesday <3

have a long tease from hoa eddie, where eddie's grossly in love with buck's big tits and honestly i can't blame him

Eddie sighs, turns around, and nearly runs right into Buck’s big, naked, hairy chest.  “Eddie—” “Where’s your shirt?”  Buck blinks. “I was mowing the yard and I got hot,” he replies, shrugging sheepishly.  He wants to bitch at Buck for mowing the yard, for taking his shirt off and getting grass all over himself, for inadvertently causing a scene because his big fat bleeding heart always seems to get him in trouble, but it’s Buck, sweet and stubborn and soft Buck, and he’s standing in front of Eddie, bare-chested and sweaty and a little breathless with blue eyes so large and wide and childlike, expecting Eddie to be upset when he’s not, not in the slightest, and all Eddie can do is smile and undo the snaps on his button down when he realizes Buck’s shivering, cold and clammy now that the sun has set. He has another shirt beneath, anyway.  “Grass is worse than sand, Buck,” he says, handing his shirt over. “Put this on. You’ll want to shower as soon as you can, so just stay the night again. I’ve got a load of your clothes in the dyer.”  Buck does as he’s told, pulling on the button down. It’s a size too small, dragging across his broad shoulders and barreled chest; the buttons stretch open over his torso, giving Eddie a peak of the curly hair between his tits, and his nipples are hard, tiny nubs beneath the fabric that draw Eddie’s attention, and he licks his lips. He’s seen Buck shirtless a hundred times before, sure, but he never realized how huge Buck’s tits really were until now, so big beneath his shirt they stick out like actual boobs.  He wonders how heavy they’d feel in his hands, if Buck would make pretty sounds when he squeezed the fat or pinched his nipples till they’re red and swollen.  Huh. That’s new.

don't be shy, what drawing app and pen do u use😼

LOL I don't use anything special or shiny really lol

I use an old ipad (with a Paperfeel screen protector. That was the game changer for me oh my gosh) with procreate on it with an old first gen apple pencil hahaha

as for brushes I ALWAYS use CHALK!! I LOVE it so MUCH Then with the just grey scaling with a little txture I tend to use Gouache. cause I like the building upon layers it gives but if I want to use color then I just use the regular old round brush 🤌

Then I use this color as the constant background color:

cause it keeps me calm LOOOOOL I used to get so angsty when things just didn't turn out how I like but this color makes me go "alright try again then" 🤣 Its magic for me hahah

😇- What's their best trait?

👿- What's their worst trait?

for Tuesday and Chuu

“Miss Chuu’s best trait? Mmm… You said this is an interview for your retelling of the Warriors of Light and their journey, right? I’d say it’s her unshakeable resolve. She decides she’s going to do something, and she doesn’t give up until it’s done. Ah… I’m not allowed to speak more on Miss Chuu without her presence, my apologies, mister Levraut.”

“You broke into my house,”

“Your lovely wife let me in actually,”

“To wake me up from my nap and interrogate me on my assistant,”

“Interview, Mademoiselle, not interrogate. Though I am sorry for waking you, your eyes were open so I assumed-”

“Ah-ta-ta. You wanted to know Two’s best trait right? Adaptability. Any environment, any obstacle… he’s got brains enough to figure the way through most anything. And failing that? He knows a top notch engineer in Magitek to kit him with the right tools to overcome his few shortcomings. Hey wait did you fucking call me a mad gazelle, you lop-eared scab?!”

“Thank you for your time, both of you. I have just one more question before I consider this interview complete and I let you both go back to your.. erm, busy schedules. What would you say is each others weakest trait?”

“I knew it! This IS an interrogation! Two, don’t-”

“Ah, that would be Miss Chuu’s paranoia, mister Levraut. Most of her other traits net positive gain,”

“Watch your mouth, Two.”

“That is.. ah, her paranoid trait has served to pull her out of many situations she would have landed in had they not afforded her foresight and caution to approach most situations.”

“Two’s worst trait is how I just can’t seem to keep mad at him when he finds and exploits loopholes in whatever rules I’ve set for him. And last week I asked him to bring me lunch, and he was nowhere to be seen for nearly six bells.”

“… Miss Chuu, if I may, you were in Azys La, and you called me via Linkpearl to bring you specifically egg sandwiches from the Bismark, even utilizing the Aethernet it takes time… and when I arrived at your last marked location you were nowhere to be found.”

[Duo Oc Ask Meme !]

[outeremissary]

Ismene, texture + wardrobe?

Thanks for the ask :) I feel like Ismene is slowly becoming the most medieval sounding medieval fantasy lady

[prompt]

texture: Does your OC favor any specific kinds of cloth or textures? Is there anything they can't wear or don't like? What sort of fabrics do they prefer?

Ismene has a strong preference for smooth, silky textures. She’s never had an actual silk garment (although she would dearly love one), but Gorion did his best to get a gown of fine linen for her for one of her birthdays which has a texture she likes. One thing she really can’t stand is anything scratchy. Coarse fabrics are off the table against skin, and she barely tolerates wearing coarse wool cloaks. Wool in general is disliked for how stuffy and unappealing it is, no matter how well woven it is. And she generally prefers to avoid tight fitting clothing and pants in general. Too constrictive!

Her favorite fabrics are silks and fine cottons. Subtly patterned silk brocades win particular fondness- she often saw their like in illuminated texts as a child and has envied them from afar for a long time. She also appreciates things which have a lightness to them, like chiffon or gossamer. The textile markets and tailors of the big cities of the Sword Coast are a wonder to her.

wardrobe: How big is your character's wardrobe? Do they wear things threadbare, or can they afford new clothes often? Are they any good at mending and repairing their own clothing?

Despite a certain princess-like air, Ismene’s wardrobe has always been relatively modest in size. Gorion may not have expected her to live with the austerity of a monk, but Candlekeep is hardly a manor and has no great market nearby to feed a taste for excess. She’s always had her undergarments and usually maybe two gowns- her clothes were never worn through and could be replaced as growth or condition required, but it wasn’t exactly a wardrobe meant for fashion. In Ismene’s late teens, Gorion suddenly went away to the city for several days and returned with a set of clothing for traveling for her- until the day of her departure, this lay untouched in her chest.

Ismene is fairly good with needlecraft and knows how to repair her clothing as needed- or more often, how to repair Imoen’s, as Imoen was the one more likely to get into scrapes that needed patching afterwards or to have wear and tear build up from working at the inn. She’s often fixed up or adjusted her own clothing or Imoen’s. She’s a quite neat embroiderer when she gets a mind to as well- she enjoys the way that the decorative patterns can hide seams. Even though her seams are fairly invisible she still sees the embellishment as an element of craft.

3, 29, 35 for artist asks? 🎨

3. your favorite piece(s)?

hmmmm I'll choose two. first there's this spirit tracks piece from earlier this year. idk, just something about it really satisfied me. and also this stained glass piece, which I still really like despite it being from over two years ago.

29. do you use a lot of references while drawing?

yeah! not so much for poses most of the time (if I need a ref for that I usually just take a pic of myself like that) but to see what a character or bg is like? absolutely. probably what frustrates me the most with creating my own non-fanart lately is just going "what do you MEAN I can't just google what it looks like and I need to create my own references???"

35. if you had one piece of advice to give your younger artist self, what would it be?

What I want to say is to just take the time to enjoy the process and try to make the piece as good as I can. also. don't take as long to start using my drawing tablet as it actually did it is a learning curve but it is so satisfying once you do learn

[novelconcepts]

wait i have one more lol what about jackie/tai. i find their dynamic to be so interesting!

I do NOT ship Tai and Jackie, but again, I dig their dynamic--this time from a rivalry standpoint. It's especially interesting to think about how they don't talk about anything, but they're constantly circling one another. Taissa wants to freeze Allie out; better not tell Jackie. Jackie just left Van in the plane; Taissa has not been informed directly of this. Jackie's losing her grasp on her friendship with Shauna; Tai's stepping in, because Tai knows a secret that would devastate Jackie, but Jackie doesn't know this, so it just looks like she's being replaced. Taissa wants to be in charge, but Jackie's the one with the captainship, even though their coach is so aware that Tai's the better player (and do I think this leads eventually to Tai running for office? you bet I do!). It's two people who just...don't really want the other to exist? Not out of malice, but because the other person is something of an obstacle at every turn. Tai's gonna turn a vote against Jackie to look for the lake. Jackie's gonna get everyone to do a seance even though Tai thinks it's stupid. And yet, in the end, Tai's the one who tries--and fails--to stop Jackie from walking to her death. It's fundamentally crazy, and I would have loved to see them interacting as adults.
