The back of Discworld novels: wowee terry's whipped another wacky and wild adventure for us this time! there's so many silly shenanigans and witty wordplay in this book that you're sure to have a hilarious time!

Discword novels: a cynical alcoholic navigating and overcoming the pointlessness of his job, a transparent metaphor for racism and gun violence in the police system and in general, an intelligent young girl overcoming the ideas she's been taught by her culture and the media she consumes, just an entire novel made of commentary on war and gender, using talking animals as a way to explore what defines personhood and contrasting stories vs reality, an ex-convict coming to terms with the damage he's caused and fighting monopolies that are trying to do the same thing,

merle highchurch: world's first transmasc absent father

[ruelpsen]

Happy 8/8, my vorny friends. Take this offering of my first-ever vore/internal POV audio. Five minutes of gurgles, heartbeats, and of course burps as they'd sound from within as I try to get comfortable on my bed, occasionally taking sips of soda. Why is my stomach so noisy and why is it hard for me to get comfortable? Well, that's for you to decide... imagine what you will and have fun with wherever your dirty mind takes you. ;)

This was far more laborious from an editing standpoint than anything I've done before, but I honestly had fun with it! If you enjoyed this and want to hear more, feel free to throw me a tip ($ruelpsen) or reach out via DMs regarding audio comms!

my nalu will Always be phoenix priestess nalu. i do not respect 100 yq nalu… that is not them… like they do not fuck around when it comes to each other and I WISH that the writers would make good on that🙄 anyway sorry i’m doodling nalu and i was like am i being too ooc and then i remembered that canon nalu is also ooc so i’m right basically!

CRUSH??? YOU'RE TELLING ME BOUBA CRUSHES THINGS??

crushing is course and rough, it's not bouba, it's 1,000,000 tiny kikis

bouba does not attack you. bouba does not puncture wounds. bouba is disease. bouba is pus and blood. bouba also squishes things but it does not crush

a heavy stone may be smooth and bouba but the damage in your skull is kiki. the action of hitting someone with a rock is ambiguous

i propose a subset of kiki: vush. if kiki is a sharp pain, vush is a soreness. if bouba is a smooth stone and kiki is a sharp rock, vush is a thousand grains of sand. it's coarse. it's an itchiness

bouba is /p/

kiki is /k/

vush is /s/

this isn’t something i’d normally say to an anon but i think we should kiss

💛🍎Alternate Dreamtale thoughts🍎💜

The apple incident actually goes different somehow and before Nightmare can eat enough apples to transform Dream catches him and teleports them to another au. He doesn't know how he did that, he just knows he wanted to save his brother and that's the only thing that mattered, but now they can't come back. They're far from home in an au they don't know and can't go back because they don't know how. But their home is destroyed anyway, the tree is dead, their mother is dead, they both felt it. Dream doesn't blame his brother for any of it, it wasn't his fault, he knew it even when Nightmare didn't.

From that point, the two twins travel to find their place in the multiverse with no knowledge of who they are supposed to be now, they never stay apart, they don't want to have opposite roles like they did before, that led to a disaster. So they're always together, always touching, or at least can always see each other. When they walk they hold hands, they sleep hugging, they shower together. Even if a task or activity seems boring to one they will always go if the other wants, for example some festivals they encounter in aus, Dream always wants to go see and talk to people but Nightmare prefers to stay behind, so he just holds on to Dream's hand the entire time and walks around with him quietly, Dream pays no mind, he's just happy he can feel Nightmare at all times and doesn't force him to interact with others if he doesn't want to or Nightmare wants to explore the woods or try hunting to get some food (they don't need food but it's good to taste something every couple years) and Dream is scared but he will always go, wrapped around Nightmare's arm or hidden behind him, digging his fingertips in Nightmare's shoulders.

They only have each other, they can only trust each other. No one else could ever understand them. They treat each other almost like the same person, or a set of two that's never supposed to separate, that will stop working if separated. They're trying to be equal to each other in every way possible to never have that imbalance they experienced in Dreamtale. They share everything, books, clothes, food. The hypothetical friends they might have made think it's weird and are annoyed that they can never have alone time with one of them but the twins are always so confused or get defensive

"why do you only want to speak to me?" "He is always with me I can't just leave him" "do you just want to separate us or something?!" "Do we ever get bored of each other? No, why would we?" "Yes we sleep together, that's not weird! You're weird!"

They never stay friends for long anyway, either because of the twins' inseparable nature or their constant travel making them distant. They don't need them. They only need each other. They will never be apart again. No one will separate-

The twins of balance

Inspired by how Rekha was actually supposed to be in the first season instead of Ally, you know what would be an interesting AU? If Katja was a member of the Bad Kids and Kristen was with the Seven

scenes from hetaoni that im overthinking:

1) japan describing this (most traumatic incident of italy's life) as an "adventure" to italy's face. that's a load-bearing "..."

2) italy successfully redirecting everyone's opinion about the clocks. ⭐achievement: friends manipulated!!

3) ...until japan calls italy's claims into question (twice) and both times italy gets so upset, unsure of how to improvise, that he starts visibly panicking and finally has to leave the room.

the first time, after japan asks if he's okay, he immediately leaves. you ever had someone ask you "you doing alright?" and you just burst into tears? im convinced italy left to have a cry break here

the second time, he's not interested in receiving any pity, and gets like... violent. yelling and slamming the door on his way out. well done italy youre the picture of mental health!

4) before the Big Showdown after the ladder room, america made a big show out of being Too Cool to Get Hurt... but canada noticed :,) such a good brother. not to be sad, but i'm sure there's been other loops where america gets himself mortally wounded and canada blames himself, so maybe he's even more attentive than usual!

5) its never stated exactly how long the timeloop has been (theres that One Post i love but, as it says, it only accounts for a small portion of loops) but. uh. this is definitely indicative of.. something.

i used to think that hetaoni having a potentially several-years-long loop would be far too much, but considering that the nations are, well, immortal, and canonically have a very strange and understandably warped view of time... maybe it really has been much longer than we know. after all, it's not like germany started building this on loop #1... how long before he even BEGAN construction?

5) "everyone has noticed that italy is acting weird but no one wants to say anything because we don't want to deal with the freakout"

-> implying they've been gossiping about him behind his back. my poor sweet spaghetti child . youre so horrible at this .

6) even in timeloops where the nations are all AWARE that they're in a timeloop, and italy is presumably open with what he knows... he doesn't tell them that it's his fault they came to the mansion in the first place.

i imagine he doesn't WANT to hide the info he knows thru timeloops (locations of keys, supplies, secret passages, etc) unless he feels he HAS to. but the truth that everything is his fault? he deliberately tells no one. that's not strategy. that's shame.

a concept for the type of OP i'd love to see for the second season of Dungeon Meshi! both s1 OPs are great, but i'm really hoping for one that captures both the "dangerous fantasy adventure" and "comedic cooking adventure" aspects of the series in equal measure, because it's the integration of those two concepts that makes the series special to me. the joyous whimsy and the dramatic horrors are equally important!!

Updates on me! Still doing alright and still trying to figure out a new tablet I'd like. Haven't even found time to doodle much between all the running around I'm doing but still! I'll hopefully be able to draw again soon! Here, have a recent messy trad doodle I did for someone!

Also been going golfing! Okay maybe I'm not the one golfing, but im keeping scores while driving the golf cart! Definitely super good at score keeping and don't get distracted at all!
