remember when you called vendetta your “happy fic”?
Vendetta is my happy fic <3
Even though it’s so bleak and fucked, I love it with all my heart!!!! I think it’s Jann’s song tbh, it’s so powerful, like yeah, I feel great writing it XD Like Top three of my series (for my tastes as a reader atm) would be:
Vendetta, ALWAYS AND FOREVER — MAYBE?! WHO KNOWS?!
The Immortal Hunter (idk why, vampires man, they are never bad), and
A Benignant Mischief (because I have never written anything like it before!!! My boys are so soft and squishy, (but whump… fantasy whump is coming… also!!! Scary king alternate POV???? )
But with Vendetta…. Phewf, I love writing the action scenes [even though they’re kind of janky in some places, and could be a little more fluid] but that high paced action sequence there’s just something so alive about it!!!!
Like in movies? It takes like twenty seconds, flash bang, thank you ma’am, and then the good guys win, boo, boring, who cares —
IN BOOKS?! IN WRITING?!?! YOU’RE THERE IN THE MUD, IN THE PISS AND SHIT AND BLOOD AND IT’S SO TIRING AND SO, SOO JE NE SAIS QUOI?! AND IT GOES ON FOR CHAPTERS!!! CHUNK OF A BOOK OF FIGHTING AND GAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
It really is a delight to write, like all the quirky villains that Hero has to fight in one to one quick encounters are so fun!!! Because they don’t really have character or plot except me reviewing my writing like —- hmmm, this is too easy, let me put another obstacle in front of Hero — cue a bloodthirsty, flamboyant Villain UGH! I live for that shit.
Plus, it’s only getting started, I have so much planned for Vendetta, i really love Hero and Supervillain— because they both think they’re in the right — but the next chapter is (should be?) the end of the first arc and oh my god IT GETS WORSE — For Hero at least, the dying does die out a little in the start of the second arc, but fuuuuuuuuccckkkk I AM SO EXCITED BAH-BAH-BOOM
*starts writing furiously after seeing this*
#writer rants#Vendetta series#Vendetta discussion#i mean it’s not a discussion#but blame anon#not me#i fucking love Vendetta#GAH#FUCK ME UP#that’s my shit#high stakes#world altering consequences#good vs bad#but its all shades of grey#mwah#can you tell i like political fantasy?#chaotic rants#chaotic rambling#not writing

(ID in alt) hi sorry for back to back marvel fanart I swear I still have dc stuff lmao. However I did recently read X-Men: first class and got a bit carried away doodling this after Lmao
#marvel comics#x men#scott summers#jean grey#hank mccoy#bobby drake#warren worthington iii#charles xavier#anyway#picked X-Men: First Class#out of sheer curiosity and desire to know more about the X-Men and I really enjoyed it!#Idk how in line with canon it but. Whatever tbh. Anyway that was the inspo behind this#just the og 5 fooling around and being silly teens#jean being the flirty one probably isn't very in character at this time period (jean doesnt really show any interest in scott in first clas#but it was too cute to pass up#also charles looks so much more pissed off than i intended 😭 there's this one issue of first class where he's just BERATING the xmen#just yelling at them psychically and eventually its revealed that it wasn't actually Charles but i didn't question it at first#which is kind of mean to charles. but idk i haven't gotten far with the x-men (im being very casual in my reading rn)#so maybe he deserves it#also i keep making bigger and bigger drawings bc i know that those print well#but i keeo forgetting that tumblr murders the quality of the image when you upload it. bwahhh#anyway i think i am finally going to knuckle down and open commission slots for part of july#idk how much a bad boy like this (lined coloured and shaded w/ multiple characters) would cost but we're gonna figure that out#honestly i might slightly under price them just to encourage ppl to spring for them#okay that's all for now I PROMISE I HAVE DC DRAWINGS TO SHARE i was just in a serious drawing funk and drawing some characters-#-that I'd never drawn before (like shulkie and now the xmen) helped break that funk!#mine

Do you think Sirius could be a morally grey character?
he is a morally grey character. he almost murdered someone while he was at school
#sirius#i think he's a good person on the whole but his morals are definitely more dubious than harry's or james#its more about what he's willing to do even if its in pursuit of the right ideals#it doesnt make him evil. hence.... morally grey.#morally grey is a spectrum too. someone like snape might be a slightly darker shade than sirius#and few characters have no grey at all. i also consider james morally grey but a lighter shade than sirius haha#replies#i'll give you a hex code for sirius i think he's cbcbcb

uniform studies + kit lists
#theres literally no cohesion between anyones uniform like. they all have diff bits at any moment. anyway! studies#hbo war#band of brothers#the pacific#masters of the air#joe toye#eugene sledge#rosie rosenthal#ww2#ww2 uniforms#also wanna do service/dress uniforms and the other airmen flying kits becoz theres so much variation in each + its fun researching#this comes from my oc stuff but i like giving their uniforms slight colour variations to tell them apart like rosies is more pink toned#bubbles is more blue/dark grey. sledge is cool tones. snaf is warm etc. the bob guys are all the same shade tho

little red riding hood but there's no hood and the big bad wolf is a cat and I don't think there's anything to ride in the forest and ringo could be littler so really it's just. red.
#puyo puyo#ringo ando#ecolo#necolo#i guess i can tag necolo separately lmao even if its the same chara#took part in the eppc drawpile n drew ringo! ive been wanting to draw something little red for such a long time#ever since i properly listened to drama 3-3 and clocked ecolo saying 'the uniform's nice but the dress is a nice change of pace!'#and i zoned in on it immediately. as someone given access to working hands i am able to draw ringo in more dresses and by god im doing it#(even if technically this is a blouse-skirt combo. shh)#also while coloring i tried to limit my palette as much as i could#so everything that shares a color is the same shade and all#much easier to color and it looks cool so win-win!#took artistic liberty with ecolo by making him grey instead of blue but such are the perils. of self-imposed limitations#i traded that out by making the green more blue to fit his original palette as opposed to ringo#(since she got the majority of first color decisions anyway)#anyway it was fun. i love drawing what i personally want to see and making it everyone else's problem#my stuff

💞 would love to open a handsome boy's lifeless mouth, finding it grey with hypoxia, and clip a pulse ox monitor right to his tongue like he was my pretty puppy 💞 feeling the chord and the hard plastic as I press my warm, hot mouth over his cold, limp, grey one to give breaths 💞 using the clip to pull his slack tongue out of his mouth and airway, so I make sure all of my air reaches his pretty chest 💞 doing compressions and watching the clip bob, taking his tongue with it, as his body spasms under the effort 💞 maybe I get to slide a tube down his throat, using only my hands of course, getting to guide it down is airway and into his lungs all on my own, no scope, the process intimate, my hands digging around and manipulating his tongue and jaw to get it in place right 💞 getting to take that tube down and use it, kissing around it, forcine air through it 💞 maybe I get to see some fluid drain out of it like a spout as I do compressions or turn him on his side 💞 getting to see his mouth full and used 💞 getting that pretty puppy mouth all pink again so I can kiss him softly 💞 what a dream 💞
#feeling some sort of way about manually held airways...#feeling some sort of way about hypoxia and all the pretty colors and shades a pretty boys face can turn#feeling some sort of way about working in his limp mouth to get him breathing. fighting an unstable airway. forcing air down bis throat.#feeling some sort of way about his mouth being grey as I pull it out of his mouth and force his jaw forward. pressing my own over his-#breathing deeply and forcefully into a meticulously opened airway. filling his chest so much that the air forces its way out before I'm don#just cold dead mouths 💞💞💞💞 and getting to make them all pink and pretty again 💞💞💞💞#the risk and the reward 🤭🤭🤭#imagine pressing your mouth to one thats slack and cold and fighting to get it warm and pink???#sounds like heaven to me#medfet#cardiophile#resus#resus community#medfet community#soft medfet#soft resus#cpr#pulse oximeter#nsft puppy#male resus

I, for one, thought Puff was just right for the tone
#wbn spoilers#wbn fireside#wbn interludes#worlds beyond number#puff the smog spirit#www interlude 2: the clearing#it’s about the juxtaposition and the nuanced nature of good and evil and all those smoggy shades of grey#and the truthful devastation of its curse#(im just saying all these fuckers play small and forgotten gods so well that if they do not play wanderhome one day i’ll be#even more devastated than this one shot)

A himbo, as promised
This look is what happens when you try to be Y2K but youve only ever seen Earth in vintage tourism brochures
#i thought that one CAS challenge with harajuku fashion was hard...#girl i do not understand y2k at ALL i am looking at all these refs trying to connect the dots and not finding a single fucking dot#some of its grunge. some of its techwear. some of its just random shit#HOW are people categorizing this stuff how does it all fit together i dont understand...#so anyway all that to say i leaned hard on some staples and then felt self conscious and tacked accessories on#which i KNOW makes it further from the Look but it covers up the insecurity 👍#i might go back and re-style him one day bc he looked good in a LOT of stuff#and id love to explore what i mightve put him in if not doing a challenge.#hes lovely!#and his eyes are grey i PROMISE hes just got those swag shades on so you cant really tell :/#simoleon#my kiddos

Okay, apparently shutting the fuck up was never an option but the way no one likes to look at the marina situation and go "wow what the fuck is wrong with portia"? Crazy.
Like she immediately didn't like her, not because of anything she'd done, but because she took attention from her daughters no matter how bright she dressed them.
It didn’t matter that the main reason is that, honestly all 3 of her daughters are painfully awkward, and in ones case literally 17. It didn’t matter that Marina was only there at her fathers instance, or that theoretically through having someone thats clearly popular in her home she could have used it as a jump off mark to match her daughters, she was seen as her big hurdle to marrying them off. Marinas immediately othered, to the point that when shes being dressed the maids helping put on her shoes is enough to piss Portia off. She immediately puts Marina in the same ring as her daughters, fight for my attention and maybe maybe it'll be positive. But Marina doesn't do that because she doesn't want to even be there.
And then they find out she's pregnant and shes othered even more. She immediately tries to send her back, and when she's not allowed to do that shes locked away and the other girls aren't even allowed to talk to her. She literally tries to freeze her out, like Marina has any say in being there in the first place, before lying to her about her being abandoned by George.
She makes no attempt to find out if George has family, she doesn't care enough to try even though that would have been a way to get rid of her "problem". She tries to push Marina onto a man old enough to be her grandfather and slaps her across the fucking face when she tries to stand up for herself.
Theres no concern for her safety, for the babys safety, just getting her out of her house as fast as fucking possible, and I'm meant to be surprised that when Colin saves Marina from her elderly suitor she turns her attention to him?
Like the nicest guy, who everyone likes, who's attractive, who isn't multiple decades older than her and most importantly not going to literally assault her? Yeah not a big shocker. Should she have lied to him? No, but she wouldn't have had to or felt the need to if she wasn't in the most hostile fucking house. Even Penelope, who she likes, why does everyone forget that she fucking likes Penelope and viewed her as a friend, becomes aggressive towards her. Shes cornered, shes scared, and all of this could have been avoided if Portia was a slightly better person and said "hey soilder boys not written back, you're gonna have this kid, does he have any family?" instead of setting this entire mess in motion.
#rainy talks#firm believer that Portia is a shit person who set this whole mess in motion#for all the “marinas still a bad person!! look at how she lashed out at pen! at how easily she manipulated colin” girlies#shut up maybe?? pen lashedout first and longer#and i genuinely believe if Penelope had said she had feelings for colin or marina had noticed earlier she wouldn't have pursued him#because she saw pen as a /friend/ but pen doesn't tell her and she doesn't find out until its too late to turn back#and i already said how lying to colin wasn't great but if you saw things in shades of grey you'd understand why shes doing it#its not a black and white situation#“marina shows no remorse though! she doesn't feel guilty ”#man she almost died trying to abort her kids just t still have them she has other stuff going on#how about we talk about her seeing this sad guy and going “dude you've gotta move on so many people love you”#and then hinting at pens feelings for him#clearly trying to still be a friend to pen by nudging him towards her even after everything#apparently I'm in my hating portia Featherington era between this and my rant in the tags of the last one#bridgerton#marina thompson#portia featherington

skipping class but staying on campus to do work for. another class. bc i said i'd have it done before friday bc i'm scared of telling profs no so now i have to read all of robinson crusoe this weekend and watch the nbc pilot of the crusoe series on top of finishing the 2 late essays bc i deluded myself into believing i have a chance of finishing this annotated bibliography in 2 hours. without half the books i'm citing. tee hee <3
#if anyone knows anything about anything hit me up 🫶🙌☝️#also one of my sources is essentially just synthesizing all of my other sources with So Little original commentary bc it was originally a#dissertation that got published as a book but i need to use it bc it's the only source of its type i could find and my prof has a checklist#-_-#and she said that if i explain why it's so late i can maybe get an extension of my extension but how do i tell her that i'm sick and burnt#out and got locked out of my room for 24 hours and am depressed and haven't been sleeping or eating well and i miss my friends and having a#library to work in and my antidepressants have taken away my ability to have my quarterly sobbing dry heaving breakdown that i rely to give#me the adrenaline boost and catharsis and clarity to actually lock in and force myself to finish big scary assignments#i can probably tell her about the sickness and the room thing but truly i'm just overwhelmed and not coping and that doesn't feel like a#real reason (bc i'm depressed)#i need to knock myself out at like 10:30 tonight so i can wake up at like 7 tomorrow and work somewhere that isn't my house but i have#rehearsal until 10 amd i need to shower before i actually have a freak out that no one finds endearing or relatable#i think the shower might be a big part of the brain fog . who could've seen this coming.........#i meant to shower last night but i was too busy reading 50 shades of grey and mists of avalon (both for class) and i was up until like 5#god i need to sleep. tomorrow will be better#if you see me on here past like 11:30 please yell at me to go to bed i've lost the ability to stop my self-destructive habits#that was super tmi . sowwy gang#a post
