#bc it feels a lot nicer and like idk

[knockknockitsnickels]

Thinking about how the Tower & the Adversary routes are connected through the Fury, and how you kind of get there by turning one into the other, and how horrified they are by what they become. Tower is about subjugation - she outright says she does not believe the two of you are on equal footing. You get the Fury from her when you assert your independence and fight back, forcing her to take you seriously as a threat and defend herself. Adversary is all about an equal fight - she prides herself on her strength, but also admires yours. You access the Fury through her by refusing to fight, watching her beat you to a pulp and become disgusted by what she does to you. IDK it is interesting how the Tower & Adversary parallel one another, and how you end up with the Fury in each route by doing what their sister route would have wanted you to do.

hiiii i really should be working on the next chapter but i wanted to try going over one of my finished chapters digitally as a test (i picked pilot 2 because i liked a lot of the paneling i did irl but couldn't really capture that in the original upload) and it actually went a lot smoother than i expected! eventually in the future i'd like to do the same to the other chapters but its not an immediate priority

i. get the vibe that the more mainstream zelda fans are allergic to the idea of liking characters who like. do bad things

[no-one-hears-me]

people overestimate their value in my life

[strwbrymlkshake]

the experience hurts, but I think it's so romantic that we both feel like the world is ending whenever we accidentally upset eachother ♡

[nomaishuttle]

anything exciting going on today guys. ive been playing sdv all day due to the devil resides within me

[wrecking]

tbh with no disrespect to those who do, i don’t honestly understand people who follow Me because they follow uo/my game blog cuz like.  i do not post that stuff here... like this is my cunt corner i just post pretty pictures and complain all day on here idgi

edit: oh now i remember what i meant by this, right after i hit post- ok but actually.  to me it feels doubly weird cuz sometimes i’ll see people who ONLY follow me here and not on the others and it’s like.  how did you find me first of all but then why follow... it’s just a me thing but like the amount of random aesthetic/wc/gamedev/pixel art blogs that i see follow me for no other reason than the fact i’m connected to uo/game blog is just like.  idk it just makes me feel weird about posting on here

[hakugreenfinch]

the problem with going to local cons alone is there isnt enough distraction and i start thinking a bit too much about how nobody is cheering for me on stage and nobody congratulates me when i come down or tells me my skit was good even if im not confident about it and how staff said "oh i recognized you its just weird that you do craftsmanship for a change"

[svsorov]

unfortunately i do fundamentally want to be kind

[nomairuins]

by the babies indo mean the younger one is 7. and i think damian is like 9... theyre sweeties :]

[tealfruit]

[toastsnaffler]

perpetually surprised I'm getting any notes at all by posting my old art to my new art acc tbh

[pop-punklouis]

wanted to ask your opinion on the chappel roan tiktoks she made the other day about fame and boundaries. i know a lot of people are siding with her, but i just feel like she could've been nicer about what she said...? i get that she had this crazy rise in fame the past few months. and i dont know how i would respond to that change, but to be upset bc fans want to take photos with you and to be so rude about it bc you're on "your time" just???. idk i feel like im in the minority here

i think you're missing the entire point of her message, babe. you're choosing to focus on the "taking pictures with fans" part of her rant instead of what she was really talking about, which is the harassments and objectifications she's been the victim of due to this meteoric rise to fame. she was not saying you couldn't come up and ask her for a photo. she was saying, if she told a fan "no" that some fans have immediately called her rude and tried to start an agenda about her being ungrateful and harsh in person. she was never talking about nice fan interactions. she was most definitely talking about every other interaction she's gotten that has been. inhumane

regardless, why should she be nicer about... anything... she was talking about? i'm tired of the parasocial and chronically online dictating how celebrities must react to fame and to their fans. harassment, stalking, manipulation, condescension.... these do not have to be synonymous with fame because hey! people don't have to treat other human beings like they're caged animals in a zoo! because they! signed up for this lifestyle! those aren't normal things and no one should expect someone to just. adapt to those things like it is. she can be as mean as she wants, dude. i don't blame her

why are people stalking her family? why are people pushing her boundaries? why are people pretending like her very valid and raw critique of how she's been treated since she went uber-viral are actually her "showing her true colors" and being "unappreciative" for what she chose to do for a living? like she stated in her videos, you don't know her. she doesn't know you. it is not normal to pretend like you do and to interact with her like you do. tiktok has made this parasocial relationship with celebrities worse than i ever could've imagined and we are seeing the darker side of it with chappel roan right now because she is being vocal about it. it's overwhelming. it's very abnormal. and it should be discussed more.

these people don't owe you anything. it's one thing to be ungrateful for what fans have given you. its another thing to feel like you are living in a fish bowl because people are treating you like a commodity instead of a living, breathing human being. i'm all for more celebrities drawing a harsh line in the sand when it comes to their personal life and their public persona. you are not obligated to their time no matter how much you feel you are. i cannot imagine becoming a practical overnight-sensation like she has the past summer. i would go absolutely insane on day three. so, why don't people turn on their dome piece and think for two seconds about how irrational and brainless it is to be upset that she "could've said :( things nicer :(" and she needs to be "more :( grateful :( otherwise :( she's not cut out :( for fame :(" liiiiike. no perhaps its you that needs to reevaluate how you treat other human beings depending on if they have the label "celebrity" over their head and go from there!

because what she said is something that's needed to be said for a long, long time regarding celebrity culture i just hate it's happening to her on such a scale that she needed to say it at all.

Pls write cg! Chris!!

[🥤] what it’s like having chris sturniolo as a CG

paring : cg!chris sturniolo x little!gn!reader

divider credit : @artemiies

a/n : i’m writing this in the nail salon teehee 💝i had a mental breakdown bc i couldn't decide what color to use for his text. the red looks nicer but i feel like his favorite color is orange irl? idk but hope you guys enjoy!! update two days later : i fixed it

(lower case intended !)

🥤 similar to cg!matt, i think he’d do FANTASTIC with a little who’s age-range is in the toddler area!

💫 his energy combined with his playful nature?

🤍 best cg if you love games like tag, hide ‘n seek, imagination games, etc etc

🥤treats you like the princess/prince/royalty you are

💫 when you first told him that you were a little,

🤍 trust that he got the biggest amazon package full of EVERYTHING he thought you might like

🥤”chris this is so much…” “good so much or bad so much?”

💫i like to think he'd have a corner of his room designated JUST for your littlespace

🤍a little corner, if you will

🥤complete with a princess tent and all

💫 playing dress up with him :((

🤍"dada's got a tiara!" *que chris looking at you with the sweetest gaze ever*

🥤the PROUDEST cg in the whole world

💫has a custom-made "world's best caregiver" shirt

🤍"chris you can NOT wear that in a video!"

🥤the first time you called him dada he literally physically bounced with excitement

💫honestly being a caregiver has taught HIM a lot about patience,

🤍loves coaxing you into littlespace after a stressful day/week

🥤 late bedtimes and fast food runs

💫 "angel, this is dada's soda, you have your juice!" "pleeease :(" "okay, but not too much, it's already late."

🤍 absolutely adores each and every single one of your stuffies

🥤 knows their names by HEART

💫learned how to braid hair so he could put your hair in piggies :(

🤍 all and all, i don't think chris would set out to be a cg but i think that after you "coming out" to him, he wouldn't be able to imagine his life without his little 🫶🫶

hiiii! Wish you have a happy new day. you can make Ashlyn banner (sbg) x reader always smile brightly even when sad or angry. If you don't want to, that's okay.

we were too close to the stars .

ashlyn banner « smiley s/o!

•you kind of reminded her of aiden at first, so she tried to steer clear of you for a little bit. when you two formally met and started to get closer, she stopped the mental comparison of you two because you were much nicer and easier to handle.

•gets really accustomed to seeing your smile, so much so to the point it calms her down when she's stressed.

•doesn't understand how you're still so collected and smiley in the phantom realm. she appreciates it because it helps calm everyone down when needed, but she's still confused.

•she sometimes has trouble deciphering how you're feeling, since you're always smiling. if you're someone who has trouble opening up, there's a good chance you're feelings will go unnoticed for a bit.

•she gets more in tune with your emotions the longer you're dating, and knows how to help you when you're upset or angry.

•the first time she saw you angry, she was a little unsettled because you were still smiling.

•she subtly tries to help you express your emotions better, which she knows is hypocritical since she doesn't express her's either, but she disregards that fact. she doesn't want you to feel like you have to hide how you're feeling.

•she's bad with names, so when you first met she called you 'smiley' for almost two weeks. she still calls you that sometimes, just because she likes it.

•she becomes a lot less intimidating when you're with her. she doesn't smile often, which makes her look mean. but she has a bright ball of sunshine right next to her, so you cancel out how scary she can look.

•sometimes, she's baffled by your optimism. she appreciates and supports it, but it doesn't make sense to her.

•you two balance each other out very well, especially because you're so in tune with the each other's emotions. it makes for a very healthy relationship!

lacey's notes: thank you for the request! i love writing ashlyn!

idk who possessed me bc i just wrote this in one sitting. my hands hurt and are starting to cramp.
