Vicious August 1998
#I know!#a rare post of old visual kei stuff from me!#the context for this is that on one of my trips after COVID-19#I tried to find a substitute store for Trio2 which had shut down in Nakano Broadway#I had read that there were some magazine shops at least in Ochanomizu#I didn't have data and tried to navigate with my geolocation skills but ended up asking a sort of old officer just to be sure#he said something along the lines of 'but I'm just an old man...'#so a younger man came to his and my rescue and offered to help me#he understood little English and used Google Translate to communicate with me for the most#turned out he was a magazine enthusiast himself and he took me to a couple of stores#they all had only antique magazines like nothing past 2005#he found everything that had Dir en grey at each of those stores#I felt bad after a while because it was not at all what I was looking for#so I ended up buying the Xth magazine that he showed me#see above hah#just so you know I was really close to the store just with my skills#Dir en grey#young#scans#magazine#visual kei#vkei#Kyo#Kaoru#Die#Shinya#Toshiya#makeup#I'm not sure why I'm such a fan of that middle finger nail paint

Do you have any candy? Give me a few pieces... Every time I come here, I bring him some. Mysterious Lotus Casebook (2023)
#mysterious lotus casebook#莲花楼#li lianhua#li xiangyi#fang duobing#cheng yi#joseph zeng#mlcedit#*gifs:mine#“hey haley did you make this entire gifset just for li lianhua's smile at the end?”#i sure did#and it's a mess bc the lighting changes like five different times#but i wanted this really because:#1. the evolution of llh's face from “i don't want to hear about li xiangyi anymore” to the fond little smile at the end#2. “as happy as a child when eating candy” he WAS a child T_T#3. the way fbd noticed 10 years ago that li xiangyi likes candy and the way he noticed 10 years later that li lianhua likes candy#what was it that li lianhua said later?#“if li xiangyi knew that ten years later there'd be someone who understood him so well”#he's understood you the WHOLE TIME#anyway i'm back on my fanghua bullshit (but was i ever off it)

me telling my cat i got him food "ðɛəʔuɡoʊ" (approximation: "theuh'ugo" this is said faster than i would say the actual translation: "there you go!")
#i'm not sure how accurate my transcription is#i tried my best#when i say it i feel like all of these sounds are made but im not 100% sure#like the first vowel sounds like the bobby 'ɛə' of 'there'#and then it does feel like there is an Extremely Brief stop between it and the 'u'#and then the 'go' feels normal#i just cut out all of the sounds that don't contribute much to the meaning#the 'ðɛə' is the most important part of 'there.' the r doesn't need to be there to be understood. as evidenced in RP#and in the 'you.' i think 'u' following a stop is Close Enough but easier to do when speaking quickly#it's less movement in my mouth than a full 'j' sound

AU where Soichirou is actually home when Light gets back from confirming the Death Note is real and Light cracks and tells him everything and has a complete melt down, is institutionalized or shut up into his room or something tortured genius style. Soichirou, after also making his own confirmation, turns the notebook in, and
Light's concerns turn out to become very, very real. BRB, I'm Patient Zeroing Light Yagami.
#L: Alright. I can understand the highschoors mental faculties cracking in two the moment he realized he'd found a notebook that kills people#L: However Mr. Yagami you are a veteran police officer. You understand the minds of men. I'm sure you#understood where this might lead to. So please. Do tell me.#L: WHY IN THE ABSOLUTE FUCK DID YOU NOT SET THAT THING ON FIRE.#Soichirou: Ah. Well. Ahem. It was evidence.#L: ...-sighs deeply into his hand and covers his eyes- This is why I hate cops.#Soichirou: EXCUSE ME?#if this fanfic exists please tell me cus i havent found it yet

#Moon posting#One Piece#You know what. Let's just do this for the hell of it#And FOR SCIENCE!#I was deeply tempted to title this something like ''Did OP make you trans'' or ''Did the OP Transgenderism Beam get you''#But I wanted to be sure people actually understood the question so the Very Scientific Results come in clean#I'm just deeply curious about the numbers and the stats

For Spearmaster, how does it feel to pull out spears out of your...tail. And what are they made of? Bone? then why do they turn green?
“..Well. Of course they hurt, having something that sharp come out of you would definitely cause some kind of agony. Though I’ve gotten used to it by now, needing them to get the proper proteins and nutrients. For what they’re made of.. I don’t think I know exactly. Some kind of bone marrow would make the most sense. Maybe they’re like teeth, that’s why they lose their color after some time when removed from me entirely.”
#OOC - btw I'm pretty sure they turn black and not green#but we understood what you meant so it's alright#rain world#rw ask blog#rw askblog#rw voiceover#voice acting#voiceover#rainworld#rain world ask blog#rain world askblog#rw slugcat#rw spearmaster#slugcat#rain world slugcat#rain world downpour#rw downpour

happy pride month everyone i really did not plan to but i just came out to my mum which has been a seven year long process so umm! yay 🫶
#she took it well i am very lucky to have her :) even if she (straight) did momsplain the experience of being gay to me (lesbian)😭#but her intentions were good its ok! she did also hit me with the 'still sexuality is fluid so you might some day like a man'#just like she did when i first tried telling her i might be a lesbian at fifteen. but this time i'm actually sure of my identity myself so#i just explained to her why that's not a reassuring thing to say in this particular scenario and she understood 👍#which was the thing i dreaded the most so yay!#one step closer to living my truth and all that#🌟🌷

there's an entire temple dedicated to the maintenance of the seasons in holodrum and protecting the rod of seasons and its four spirits. meanwhile nayru is just keeping the harp of ages in her basement
#legend of zelda#random stuff#oracle of seasons#oracle of ages#I'm replaying the oracle games right now#humans could make a temple dedicated to the easily understood cycle of seasons (which are kind of supernatural in this game)#time is only understood by the hippie singer who lives in the woods and is important enough to have a triforce barrier protecting her home#dude. oracle of ages is so much more grim than seasons#people in ages are like 'my husband left to go work on the evil tower. I'm never going to see him again'#a city got destroyed by an eruption in ages and you need to go back in time to save it#some kid got turned to stone and his grandma won't leave his side#meanwhile in seasons sure a city got flooded because of icecaps melting but everyone is ok. nobody needed to evacuate#there is silly music playing in the bg. and a legendary diver guy who lives there#despite the little girl with no parents to speak of stranded at the entrance eternally blowing bubbles because she can't swim#and the fact that there's a monster fortress right outside town preventing anyone from evacuating#I mean. despite the flooding the game makes it seem like the city was always 90% water

#idk i 1) understand jackles situation with a very mixed audience when he's solo#and 2) his answer was good? the confession doesn't need a resolution it needs reciprocation it doesn't need to get fixed#it doesnt even need to be addressed#reciprocation isn't having a sit down chat about what cas said in 1518#he said it's understood and it is#cas just has to know but i'm p sure that will be fairly obvious in any continuation#idk im tired of these answers sometimes. not jackles giving them but some peoples responses to them#i get you don't like him and you're nit picking any chance you can to misinterpret him or not stop and think for 2 seconds about his answer#bc you're just ready to jump on this JACKLES IS HOMOPHOBIC thing like fam#no#also if his answer really was 'nah no more destiel fuck that' that would fly in the face of other shit he says#soooo idk

the ability to change fate... that's the power you were fighting to stop.
redraw of something i made at 14!!! wild how time passes
no effects vers and original under the cut
dated august 3, 2020. so i was actually 13 but I don't feel like correcting it. basically 14
the little caption i put is the one i made for this in ibis paint lmao
#my art#it's so funny that i've liked undertale for so long#i liked it even before i understood the plot#bc somehow i managed to watch ut comic dubs on yt#i only knew about frisk chara toriel sans and papyrus#because literally no one else showed up often enough for me to identify them#another bad thing about that was that frisk and chara would constantly be gendered#so that was confusing#but by the time i drew the original there i understood the actual game itself#hence the flowey quote#I DIDNT EVEN KNOW FLOWEY EXISTED#the FIRST character you meet in game#are you kidding me#i like the stupid gray guy i drew in place of the player#i should probably give this relevant tags now#undertale#undertale fan art#frisk#chara#player undertale#haha didn't know that was a tag#probably the original staging was more interesting but i didn't wanna draw them from behind lol#okay i'm done talking#actually no i'm not because i just noticed the player isn't looking at the fourth wall but both chara and frisk are (in the original)#did that mean something#did i mean something by that#i can't fathom/remember what i could've possibly meant but i like doing shit like that on purpose#so surely there was a reason

did you also have a point in your childhood where you taught yourself to laugh when something was funny, or are you neurotypical?
#i used to only laugh when a physical reflex told me to#and then when i was 13 i realized#“hm i should probably laugh at funny things”#“laughing seems to be a form of communication”#“wow i have understood how to human”#please tell me you get what i'm talking about#neurodivergent#autism#autistic things#probably autistic#(yep still not sure but using the tags because let's be real that is a very autistic thing)#(a friend recently told me i have Autism Vibes. so i am peer reviewed and therefore allowed to say this /hj)

"The Bible is so sexist blah blah blah" okay. When it talks about how you can avoid doing stupid things in Proverbs it uses a man in its examples and personifies wisdom as a woman though which I think is pretty funny
#christianity#nevermind all the verses that are literally lauding women and commanding men to honor and respect them and treat them as equals...#nevermind the fact that the first three people to see Jesus after the resurrection were all women...#nevermind the fact that His first convert was a woman...#nevermind the fact that when a woman who'd been caught in adultery was being quite literally attacked and ridiculed by religious leaders#Jesus came and told her she wasn't evil or a failure or worthy of death and He rebuked the men who were attacking her...#He shoved their own issues back in their faces and told them that they had no right to think themselves any better than her#especially since she actually felt and understood the weight of what she'd done and wanted to change and they didn't...#but sure yes go on tell me more about how i'm “oppressed” by this and how God hates women#do you not think He might like women considering... yknow... He made them and included eve in the “beautiful and good” in genesis??#why would He make something He doesn't like...#please note i am not saying this to make fun of men in the slightest bit. that's not the point. i'm making a joke#but i do think the fact that it personifies wisdom as a woman is interesting#like i'm not sayin' y'all need to read it cause it's uh. it's somethin' but song of solomon??#like yeaaahhh i think judging by that one women are intended to be seen as pretty cool and good and whatnot#like i know i talk about “i love my wife”-ism in media but uh. song of solomon takes it to quite another level#anyway!#regarding the “first convert” thing a guy named cornelius is generally accepted as being the first convert#because he was the first to be converted by the time Christianity was actually established as a religion#but if you imagine that the samaritan woman at the well was actually the first non-jewish person to believe in what Jesus said#then she would actually be the first real convert.

As a little addendum to this post I think probably the version of Faust that goes in the most on "starts out wanting to help people but loses sight of it" is the Murnau film, in which his loss of faith is occasioned by his inability to cure a plague (which the audience knows Mephistopheles actually caused in order to get that exact result). Once he's made his deal with Mephistopheles the first thing he does is cure a plague victim, which gets him hailed as a miracle worker right up until the second person in line arrives clutching a cross, which renders his powers useless and thus exposes precisely how he got them. Upon escaping the townspeople's attempt to immediately stone him to death, he decides, fine then. If I can't do anything helpful with my demonic powers, I'm just gonna fuck. (Which he of course then does.)
This version, consequently, is probably the most explicit about suggesting that you probably just can't do much that's constructive with demonic powers, although I think it's basically implicit in most versions up until Goethe's Faust II (where he doesn't even really need them to do the constructive things he attempts, so it just fucks up his efforts unnecessarily, but Goethe's Faust isn't initially motivated by the desire to do great deeds either, he's just tired of life and also a contrarian, and also Faust I and Faust II are really really different texts). Which is why I've never really vibed with the "scientific" reading that centers around the deal with the devil as a metaphor for technical advances or whatever. Not with the Marlowe version, anyway. I get why people do it, but eh.
#hot faust summer#murnau faust#i should probably have a dedicated goethe tag#i think this is all probably also a result of increased distance from the morality play as a concept#the marlowe play uses that structure specifically to rail against a particular kind of calvinist worldview#where it's understood that not much large scale good can come from literally selling your soul to the devil#like the whole point of it is that it's poisoned#and that's kind of what marlowe is pushing against?#like in that kind of universe what else can you do?#anyway i feel like this is probably a dumb thing to fixate on but also like#i want to feel like i'm sure the metaphor works

The writers of oniisama e failing to understand how drugs, illnesses, or human proportions work but understanding unrequited high school lesbian crushes on a deep and fundamental level:
#she CRUNCHES the painkillers??? like she munches on them#look i'm not a drugs person. i don't even smoke weed. i had 2 beers and then went to sleep last week and that's the extent of my partying#in high school i was a little christian nerd with a bad haircut i never got invited to anything interesting#a girl once confessed her love to me and i just thought that's what friends said so i told her i loved her too#hailey if you're out there i hope you met a nice lesbian who understood social cues#btw the only obvious gay kid got taken out of my school and i wouldn't understand i was also gay until i was 19#anyway what i'm saying is i don't have experience with drugs but i'm pretty sure that's not how you do them

for how mentally ill i am about monster hunter and shara ishvalda specifically i sure am always noticing new things about them
#monster hunter#mar.txt#shara ishvalda#this is of course a good thing#when i just fought shara a bit ago i noticed that a) they seem to,at least with their front paws,stand on their toes rather than the full#paw (alatreon does this too,but on all paws instead of just the front ones)#which explains why only their back paws have defined paw pads#b) after their eyes open every time they do one of the ground liquefaction attacks you can see mountains/giant rocky spires in the#background collapse; i THINK all of the remaining ones collapse with their first spirit bomb? but i'm gonna check#also i didn't JUST notice it i noticed it the other night but i tested it last i fought them but they seem to Only have their jaw hanging#open when their eyes are open? they keep it closed when their eyes are closed#i'm honestly not sure why,my running theories are either it's some kind of reaction to their light sensitivity or its deliberately done to#be more scary/intimidating looking#but tbqh there is soooooo much about shara that i Do Not Understand. like how the rocks on their face twitch when they have their mantle on#but i am 100% fine with that i do not think shara is Meant to be Understood#god is beyond my comprehension and i am fine with that
