#bc he was recruited

exactly exactly i was nodding through every tag of yours
we've seen in both his death scenes (the one yuji intervened and the one he was too late) that nanami couldn’t quite put why he came back to work as a sorcerer even tho it's pretty damn clear he wants to change things. both jobs suck because capitalism only works by ensuring the poor will turn poorest, but one of them doesn’t make him ashamed of himself. in only one of those two awful jobs he would be missed if he was gone. and he was gone, and he was missed. nanami couldn’t intervene against deadly threats like kenjaku and sukuna, but it was fine. it was yuji's turn after all.
there is a certain insanity that makes people decide to become sorcerers. having an innate technique isn't enough, they have to want to work in such a cruel field and more than that they need to not have anyone willing to do anything to stop them from doing so.
miwa and nobara are, from the younger cast, the only ones with mundane reasons. one wants to help her family, the other would rather die than staying on the same fucked up town. it's clear miwa has a great relationship with her family, and clear nobara hasn't.
which makes me think of nanami, the most normal sorcerer from the older cast. the only sorcerer of his family, putting his life and innocence in danger when he was still a student. if you have a family that will have your back (like nobara hasn't) you don't do that. if you have a good socioeconomical situation (like miwa hasn't) you don't do that. for me, it's clear nanami lacks both of them.
not only i think he used to live dangerously closer to the line of poverty during his youth, i also think someone with at least a bit of care or love for their own family would judge suguru for killing his parents. but nanami couldn't care.
#putting prev's tags here so y'all can read too#you are so right#big brain#i dont remember if it was a hc or small tidbit from gege#but i remember reading that nanami was treated differently than his sibling(s?)#like his parents thought he was extremely strange and did not want to 'feed into his delusions'#i think they thought he was hallucinating#i assume sort of like yuta#idk if that was a legit source or not#but i think about it a lot in terms of his characterization#he cares SO much about kids not having worries or concerns#i always hc his parents may have gotten into some medical debt on his behalf on top of whatever money issues they had#bc he was recruited#AT 15!#or 14 im not sure#feels like a kid that left thinking 'theyre better off without me'#and then wanted something better and never could get 'there'#nanami is such a deeply painful character imo#that he lost a ton on his investments the night he was switched from phone duty to in person and then dying#something tells me he may have come from a gambling family#some kind of mentality where he thinks he isn't the betting type#and then becomes a stock broker#thinks he can rig it but he can't#becomes a sorcerer again#thinks he can foolproof it#he can't#a man trying so desperately to defy reality in how he treats kids (maybe they won't see the same trauma - they do)#maybe i will grow old in this line of work - he didn't#ugggggghhhhhhh i love him#i am so unwell about him

A Vision
That scene in s9 is probably one of my favorite Jay moments because of how well it shows why Wu chose him and what his role is in the team. Being the out-of-the-box thinker, the dreamer. Especially because of how it sets him apart from the rest, like Zane, Cole or Kai, whose purposes are to protect others while Jay inspires people (s6 and s12)
#ninjago#jay ninjago#ninjago jay#jay walker#ninjago dragons rising#ninjago fanart#ninjago wu#wu ninjago#dad jay au#← it's that scene from chapter 18#the moment when jay had to be on the verge of death to have a vision with wu#also yes this flashback is the one that is repeated the most in the AU#aa drawing young jay makes me sad. he has no idea what awaits him#i don't know if i've mentioned it before but in my hc he's 16 when wu recruits him#so he's the same age as Kaida here bc parallels

Very much inspired by this !!
—
Phantasm crashed into the side of a building, the rest of his team- the TeenTitans- stayed back. They were otherwise occupied, with the rest of the H.I.V.E. five attacking them.
They'd gotten a new member, one with a similar, nearly identical power set of their own new member.
Phantom.
Phantasm and Phantom, two mirror look alikes, they went absolutely feral whenever one was in sight. It was driving Robin mad, Beast Boy had joked about cloning but after they started to actually consider that option.
"Well, well, well." Phantom mocks, glowing green to Phantasm's red.
"Shut. The fuck. Up." Phantasm charges again, throwing the other into windows with a growl.
They kept bickering, hitting and injuring each other, until—
"Stop being so annoying!" Phantasm shouts, baring his fangs. Phantom, in return, stuck his tongue out.
"You're just jealous I got the Villain role!!"
At this point, their respective teams had called a draw and watched them fighting.
"You're a lousy villain!"
"I'm having the time of my life beating the shit out of you actually."
"I'm calling jazz."
At that, Phantom starts glaring. "I thought we agreed on not bringing this up to our sister?"
#dan picked the hero stick#danny the villain#dan now is handicapped as fuck bcs hero role#danny is having the time of his life on the other hand#joined H.I.V.E. and everything#meanwhile dan has to deal with robin hood and hos circus band#he wanted to act solo BUT NOOO#he got recruited#dcxdp#dpxdc#dp x dc crossover#fic prompt#writing prompt#dc x dp prompt#dc x dp#dp x dc#dp x dc prompt

One of my biggest pet peeves is the justice league being labelled as " The Avengers of DC" and its like. No? The avengers are law enforcement. The Justice League are volunteers
#its like -- captain america is the staple of US military and Superman is a public servant#the one avenger member who has no bounds or legal obligation is tony and its bc hes rich. you could argue that he actually lost#autonomy when shield recruited him because like. protection isn't necessary tied to 'good.' the avengers protect the planet bc sure#its what they believe in and feel like its their duty and yada yada but ultimately they're self serving and most of their#help is accidental. i say most of bc we've seen they abstain from getting involved unless they have a common interest#with dc its like. you have these people in a position of privilege (having superpowers -- which gives them a spot of advantage to ppl who#dont have it) who do the right thing because they WANT TO. and they can stop at any time because nothing stops them.#they COULD say 'yeah you're on your own. we don't really care anymore. duces!' but they Dont.#because through its many flaws dc realizes that goodness isn't only a choice -- its a responsibility#theres probably better ways to say this but. alas#batman#superman#wonder woman#green arrow#aquaman#the justice league#tjl#justice league#dc#dc comics#text#text post

something something 'your coworker keeps mentioning there arent enough onions so you offer to get some the next time youre in a city. he tells you to get good ones but you realize too late that you have no idea whats the difference between a good and a bad onion'
this was a lot funnier in my mind before i spent 3 days working on it ._.
#my art#dragon age#calien de riva#rook de riva#datv#dragon age the veilguard#veilguard#neve gallus#bellara lutare#and if you squint. maybe even;#bellara x neve#for a little more context (i guess its rook lore drop in the tags tonight). caliens approach to food is also skewed#orphan on the streets -> crow recruit (and viagos poison test subject) really set his 'normal' in this sense too#like yea sure hell bite that to test it. hes had worse. and suddenly there are beautiful women judging him and hes not sure why#hell eat anything as long as its an improvement from trash! (its been a longgg time since then but still. the bar is on the floor for)#(on the bright side his poison resistance is GREAT. be it food poisoning or actual poisons)#not very happy with this but hey! its done at least!#this is why im replaying veilguard; taking screenshots and stopping to draw silly things#another one that i probably wont do is when neve catches my rook reading on the couch. and he falls off of the couch in shock bc#he didnt hear her walk in!! the fuck!! what!!!#also hes very embarrassed about what hes reading. its SECRET. (she read a lot of it over his shoulder. and wont ever let him live it down)

I enjoy the implication in Origins that Zevran isn't a very good fighter when we meet him and then after Origins he was utterly terrorizing the Crows. All the levels he gained in the Warden's party actually made him a canonically, significantly more dangerous fighter than he was when the Warden met him.
#the game does do a fun job of justifying why the companions are - while much more capable than the average peasant - low level at first#Alistair has only been a Warden like 6 months and didn't finish Templar training before that#Morrigan has powerful magic but has been isolated in the wilds with her much more powerful mother to take care of things#Sten is a trained warrior but he was nearly killed. still managed to murder a family. then spent 20-30 days in a cage with no food or water#Leliana is a skilled Bard but she could either be rusty from hiding out in a cloister for a while or hiding some of her skills#Wynne is a senior enchanter and by the time you can actually recruit her you're probably at least like lvl 6 or 7#so she's no pushover when you actually see her do stuff. and could be even stronger if she didn't just recover from dying#Oghren is usually prooobably the last recruited bc Orzammar is meant to bounce low level players off and send them elsewhere#he is the companion most likely to be met at higher levels so it makes sense that he's an ass-kickin warrior when you meet him#though again he might be a little weaker if you came earlier and the fact that he's been banned for a while from fighting#and has instead just been sitting around getting wasted accounts for that#radio chatter

Me, gasping awake: "Omg, I haven't thought about Rosinante in days!"
My brain: "No worries fam, here's a huge CoraHawk fake dating fix it AU."
Me: "Thank you :)"
*10 minutes later*
Me: "But you know we can't have Mihawk without Shanks, especially if this is set during their duelling times, and also I think Shanks and Rosinante would get on like a house on fire--"
My brain: "This is gonna be a polyamorous Rosinante/Mihawk/Shanks story before long, who do you think I am??"
#the brainrot is real#cora gets to live#law gets all the dads#i actually think cora secretly being alive wouldn't change too much up until marineford#if mihawk arrives just in time to save cora's life on minion island no one besides him and law and maybe sengoku would know he's alive#the marines wouldn't manage to stick doffy into prison without cora's evidence so he'd still be around and plotting#law still would recruit his crew and set out for adventure bc he's got the big question of his secret names that needs to be answered#really only difference is law being more emotionally balanced and having gotten a couple more lessons in swordsmanship and haki from mihawk#cora would only officially join law's crew when they enter the new world to let law grow on his own for a bit first#and law would absolutely be miffed with the knowledge that shanks is out there absolutely keeping an eye on them while in the new world#donquixote rosinante#rosinante corazon#dracule mihawk#red haired shanks#trafalgar law#mishanks#corahawk#corashanks#uuuh... idk how to good poly ship name#coramishanks#? feels a bit difficult to read and understand but i'm keeping it for now - open to suggestions tho#mihawk x shanks#rosinante x mihawk#rosinante x shanks#rosinante x mihawk x shanks#coramishanks fix it au#one piece

oops i have hit some of my sprunkis with my silly mii beam
#soundleer's art#miscellaneous leer#i got a lil addicted to making miis in the switch mii maker and made like 14 sprunki miis (ocs included)#a lot of them are more likely gonna be used as playable mario kart characters than miitopia recruits lol#but anyway i love how they turned out as miis so i doodled some of them#i gave vineria a walking stick specifically bc her anthro design doesn't have legs so headcanoning her to have mobility issues makes sense#simon looks a hell lot similar to my oc travis with the fashion sense and energy (i think they'd be besties!!)#oh yea tunner gets a braided ponytail bc thats a fucking yes#and black in his drawn design was hella fun and came off way better than expected... and he has legs now so he's taller now yayyyy#i gotta draw more sprunkis as miis (and vice versa. i need to turn my miis into sprunkis hehehehe)

wanted to try drawing my favorite (kid) citizens again (along with my height hcs)
bonus
more height hcs under the cut!
Evan - has a steady growth, ends up at a respectable 178 cm. For a Tildrum though, this is actually quite short.
Tani - grows taller faster, before (unfortunately) stopping at 165 cm. She was much taller than Evan at one point.
Mylas - I hc that merfolk are generally tall bc they're predisposed to have long limbs so therefore i think mylas would be tall. He ends up at 185 cm.
Filippos - had a late growth spurt. He was getting a little worried about his height bc he wanted to be at least taller than Evan. He at the very least ends up at 179 cm.
Chip - he's just plain short. It doesn't help that his posture is also bad. He dgaf until someone else brings it up. Ends up at 162 cm.
Lili - also short. And petite. Her diminutive stature occasionally gives her trouble but at least it doesn't stop her from being taken seriously (she's scary). Ends up at 154 cm.
Hoi Den - had an early growth spurt, but she didn't stop growing afterwards. Filippos looked to her for advice on how to get taller. Ends up at 176 cm.
Muriel - another short queen. Some say its because of her literal heavy lifting at a young age is what disrupted her growth. She doesn't mind, most of the time. Ends up at 150 cm.
Speio - she had a one and done growth spurt in the middle of her teens. She really hope she'd be at least 175 like Callianera but she stops just short. She ends up at 172 cm.
#ni no kuni 2#nnk2#mylas#filippos#chip#lili#hoi den#muriel#speio#maqui art#mylas is in his pre recruitment outfit bc i think its cute#he looks so breezy and comfy in it

who is cleric!gorgug the cleric of??
he starts out as a cleric of a (right now unnamed) nascent god of tranquility! or at least that's what the anger management support group guys told him. sadly that then turns out to be a cult recruitment ground and they're actually building the god by feeding it their emotions. I'm not super sure how that'll play out in full yet by the end of freshman year but gorgug does leave the cult when they drop an ultimatum on him.
most of sophomore year has him like. can I? try out deities? and finding out that even when people say yes what they mean by action is they try to compel him to stay and they get miffed that he doesn't stay because he doesn't feel like he fits. when the bad kids uncorrupt cassandra though he's the one who hears how they're also not sure of who they are outside of the deep grief and fear of the nightmare king, and tells them it's okay to take your time for a little bit while figuring it out, and cassandra through that becomes the god of the inbetween. gorgug offers her domain as a stop outside of a faith if you want to leave but need the structure or the support, and he makes a point to never proselytize. this of course is kind of the crux of junior year's arc for him because that doesn't do wonders number-wise lol
#not art#fh class quangle#I give kristen and gorgug the cult survivor to cult survivor communication... kristen seeing gorgug in freshman year and is#taken over by the Strongest sense of dread. being kristen tho of Course she immediately sticks by him#bc kristen leaves her family with pretty much No connection. jawbones kinda picked her up her legal status is an absolute mess#and on the spot she knows if gorgug wants to leave any time soon he needs friends outside of the cult. she still didnt expect him to#choose the bad kids over the support group when the ultimatum is dropped on him#I think I've said this somewhere before but like just due to his disposition gorgug is So recruit material it's scary#disconnect from his parents.... disconnect from peers due to elements entirely outside of his control
