thought of some sad lore for co!parent!price :(
he's a widower. and they experienced fertility problems when they were together, so his attitude toward children/family life had changed dramatically.
they both tried everything to conceive. injections, meds, treatments, etc, etc.
so... when that baby showed up on his doorstep, he wasn't sure how to feel. all the memories coming back to him at once; his wife and her death. and how they wanted children so terribly.
then he wonders, if she hadn't passed, could she have gotten pregnant, by some miracle? would they have one child? two? another on the way?
if life hadn't been so cruel, ripping her from him, would he be on the right track?
the little face, bundled in a blanket, staring up at him with bug eyes. and those little hands, playing with the only toy she had. domestic life seemed so far from price — impossible, even.
but his protective instincts prevailed. those paternal aches consume him completely when he picks up the infant, feeling her nuzzle his buff chest. the small, high-pitched coo she made when he planted a kiss on her delicate forehead.
that emptiness, filled halfway when he embraces an innocent thing that's never felt the cruelty of life and death. the other half would never be entirely filled — his wife would always be gone, never to be replaced the same way.
but it was then that he realized, he could still try. moving on from her wasn't betrayal. it was progress. the life he deserved, being a father, a pure protector for an abandoned child.
#and then he calls you#because you were there for him after her death#at the funeral#those late night phone calls when he teared up on the other line#never admitted to crying#but you knew that tone#you were too close of friends not to#he knew then that he wanted *you* to help him raise her#:(((#am i mean for this??#co!parent!price#captain john price#price mw2#john price#captain price#price#john price x reader#captain price x reader#john price x you#mw2#call of duty#task force 141#rachel speaks

Kingdom Hearts - Hollow Bastion
#kingdom hearts#kh1#hollow bastion#scenery#my gif#creating this set helped me truly appreciate just how detailed this world is#i mean i always knew it was beautiful but i never actually slowed down long enough to REALLY look at it#seriously every single room is so varied and intricately designed it's so impressive#it was difficult to select only eight locations to showcase because this place is huge and each area is so memorable in its own way#i technically used two shots from the lift stops but c'mon i wasn't going to leave out those giant stained glass windows are you kidding me#they look amazing but can be easily missed since they're so high up#this world is so dark and moody with its elaborate architecture despite its soft peach toned skybox that's surprisingly calming to look at#she has the range

one thing i really adore about togame is his word choice and how unexpectedly soft his way of phrasing sentences are. it's almost impossible to translate into english because there's no equivalent verb ending, but you can kind of tell the difference in his tone use. when you listen to sakura talk, for example, the ends of his sentences sound a little harsh and abrupt since he uses a typically informal tone; whereas togame's a lot softer (even if we account for his slower speed), and he uses a verb ending that's rather unusually rounded and unexpected of someone with a physical appearance like him. the elongated ends of his sentences exaggerate this, especially during his pre-bofurin fight when he uses that tone as a way to annoy his opponents.
#when he's ripping the jacket off saruatari and he says the 'we dont need weak ppl in shishitoren' line#you can really hear him use his tone#or when he talks to sakura for the first time#it's a bit of a generalisation but his verb endings are kind of girly in a typical sense#you would hear it more in the way girls talk to guys (a bit pick me ig)#i think it's very cute that there's a strikingly large man whose word choice is surprisingly gentle#it's also why i think he's a bit of a brat#he's whiney and always sounds like he's pouting#when he's telling choji's listen to him i seear he's got his bottom lip out in a pout#that was the point i wanted to make#but i needed to sound like i knew what i was saying#not just 'togame brat'#because im always saying that#now here's the theory behind it#togame jo#wind breaker

I know everyone assumes Obi-Wan would be the flirty one but I feel like Cody would be so much worse but he flirts in such a deadpan way noone realises that Obi-Wan is flirting back
#everyones like omg obiwan we knew you wanted him you flirted with him constantly obiwan just gives cody the most lethal fucking sideye#cody grade a kenobi flirt#he just says things in a specific tone with a completely blank expression and obiwans face lights up#star wars#obi wan kenobi#codywan#commander cody

Huh, I didn't even realize it'd been a year since BG3 came out until I opened tumblr this morning. Kinda wild. I didn't think much of the game's release: I like Larian's games, and I like the BG series. I wasn't ever going to skip the game, but I didn't think I'd play it at launch because I was busy working on a novel in 2023 and not doing well financially.
Thankfully, circumstances left me with a little bit of extra money last year just before launch and it meant I could spend on a video game. I needed a pick-me-up after said 2023 novel failed to go anywhere, and BG3 was right there. Like most CRPGs, I played it in basically every moment of free time that I had and did as much as I possibly could in one playthrough.
It's so odd how these small happenstances can snowball into coming back to fandom, finding some friends I might've never met otherwise, and writing a lot of fanfiction along the way. I'll probably have something more interesting to say/share when it's the 14th, AKA when I sat down and wrote my first fic for this fandom.
Anyways, it's been a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to more years to come 💜
#random fandom thoughts#there's a fair few tidbits about that first fic that will be more fun to share on the 14th#but there's some fun facts about the early parts of my first playthrough:#Asheera killed Us because the player thought it was going to be a hostile intellect devourer and didn't want to deal with that at lvl1 lol#It took me several hours to recruit Gale because I didn't want to interact with the glowing portal until I was “ready”#I (the player) sent Barcus flying at first because I have a very silly sense of humor#I did reload that one because Asheera wouldn't BUT I was satisfied#and finally the one that is always entertaining considering how things ended up#I originally thought nothing of Shadowheart and didn't go into the game with any idea about romance or the companions whatsoever#all I noticed about her was that she wore Sharran symbols everywhere but tried to hide her faith#then she tried the most miserable attempt at manipulation I've ever seen in my life (when she tests you about Raphael's deal)#and she exposed herself as the Worst Sharran Possible#then came her confession of her faith and I knew something special was happening#the confession sounds so robotic and prewritten almost like it's from a canned speech she's practiced and rehearsed#and sounds more like regurgitation and being Told what to believe rather than an impassioned plea borne of bone-deep faith#the sudden shift in her tone had me thinking: “this is either atrocious character writing or fantastic characterization”#and lo and behold#anyways if you've read this far then bg3 is a very special thing for me and I love getting to create for the fandom

I also managed to piss off a guy today on the way to work just by wearing a light blue dress shirt. Very unintentionally, mind you. I didn't choose the color on purpose, I just own a lot of it (my phone case and purse are also both light blue, and I pair a fair bit of my workwear with navy.)
He was like, "You have a lot of color coordination today." Not in a friendly way.
Me, startled because I didn't expect to be spoken to: Oh! Thanks :)
He immediately glared at me, rolled his eyes, and got off the train since we were rolling into the next stop. I think I pissed him off by taking it like a compliment when he was trying to insult me lmao (by assuming a light blue dress shirt with brown slacks and a silk neck scarf is....a political statement? maybe?) Like whatever he was trying to do just immediately backfired when I acted cluelessly pleasant in return.
#i have to assume it was election related because why else would this bizarre interaction happen#i was also wearing a mask like a godless heathen so#the funniest thing is before i walked out this morning i was like. will wearing blue be an issue#and i was like no that's silly.#well.#i knew immediately from his tone though he wasn't complimenting me#but what else do you say to that but thank you? i have no idea what he thought he was accomplishing

#flashing#oneus#keonhee#lee keonhee#foroneus#kflops#malegroupsnet#usermairin#* my gifs#nkd.gif#oneus.gif#oneus.kh#so many things happened to me while making this set so im gonna ramble ok. you can ignore all this or not idc do what you want.#anyways some of these i am displeased with but couldn't fight anymore. some of these i am SO pleased with like. magnum opus pleased#i was gonna add all three oneus theatres but the crazy hot gif was kinda just. bad. it's a bad video to gif. & i eliminated theatre luna#earlier cuz i ALSO had to eliminate intro window bcuz i forgot there were like noooo keonhee scenes i could do alk;dsfjadlsf#and as i was finalizing everything i realized i forgot 808. dies. i was so nervous abt that happening but double checked to make sure#i didn't miss anything and then i still missed it </3#i knew with such a large comp set this wouldn't match perfectly so i tried to lean into the strengths of the scenes while keeping contrast#and sharpening consistent becasue i thought that'd look best and i think it was for the better#but nonetheless it's still SO funny how much luna stands out. like overall it's semi consistent then Boom cool pink tones. alas#anyways ouuughhhhh hi keonhee.

The scene where Eddie tells Buck that he would get custody of Chris if Eddie dies!!!!! He didn't choose his parents. Not his sisters. He wants Chris to go to Buck 😭😭😭
And the LOOK on Buck's face. The EMOTION. And all this revealed because Buck thinks that HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE ONE TO GET SHOT???? I'm SOBBING.
Oh god and then he says "No one will ever fight for my son as hard as you" I'M SOBBING MORE
#like I knew it was happening I saw the gifs of the scene but I didnt have the context!!!#it hits different when you can hear their tone and see the emotions and AHHHHHHH#911#911 fox#buddie#eddie diaz#evan buckley

Sketchpage of my characters <33
I closed my eyes couple days ago and half-slept under the cloudy weather. It's the first time in years I get brave enough to draw my characters in a scene right after I experience it.. I sleep immediately at night (no complaints, I am indescribably grateful I don't experience insomnia), but I miss the time before I snooze where I dive into my headworld..
I've been doing so many things in-between working split shifts that I've given myself possibly another ibs episode, resulting in taking the day off yesterday. I felt ok by noon so "I'll draw for 2 hrs" became 7 ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ I'll do my best to take it easy for the next few weeks u u ^^^love how I wrote so and as soon as I recover I want to go back to doing a billion things!!
Since you're here, here's the full page~
It was super fun to draw and I am extremely shy about it but also super proud and I worked hard!!
#oc#konrad#zeref#digjsketch#sketchpage#I've been listening to the FFXVI OST for the first time a year after playing the game#by the time ascension played I had completed most of it but istg I have this one on repeat 2 days now and I can not!! IT'S SO GOOD!!!! AAAA#I want to draw more... IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII#all leontarii's fault for sending me the soft exploring OST's of cities#I thought “okay how about I try listening to the entire thing since we're here”#it was event horizon I am so dEEP AAA#it's one of these times where I wish I knew how to play an instrument to physically channel my energy through something that can make noise#besides my own voice that I basically force everyone hear me making noises of “what I think this tone might be” --yeah!#anyway thank you for reading kon's adventures#Don't mind the dislocated jaw#I'll redraw it at some point- probably

The whole made up “tim is seen/treated as an employee by everyone’” thing is funny vs just how much Steph and spoiler as an identity got disrespected by literally everybody. Like not even hated just the casual disrespect for her is soooo
#yknow what’s even funnier#I genuinely believe since Tim’s run is like the only thing so many ppl read they try to justify Bruce being shitty w/ the employee thing#but like that’s just how Bruce is#like they’re trying to conflate it with the fandom they knew and they come up with Bruce treats tim particularly horribly#like no guys…Bruce is NICE to Tim. like in comparison?#like I’m not disregarding the birthday thing when I say this I think bruce had like. the most respect for Tim’s autonomy out of everyone#and I’m also not disregarding post jason death behaviors I’m just saying#actually besides Duke too#I think Duke and Tim got the most respect from bruce like he was even bs-ing barbara A LOT#I’d argue dick but his relationship shifting from kooky to scary is so sad actually like not just shift in tone for batfam irl imaging how#it felt in world without the explanation that things are getting serious so we’re raising the stakes for money#that’s a whole diff convo I think about everyday tho#what I’m saying is that ppl who only read tim see Bruce’s fucked up behavior and think ‘this can’t be Bruce’ when the only other thing they#read is in the ‘good parent Bruce’ tag and Twitter#so they think he’s like atrocious to tim specifically and he’s treated badly vs everyone else#when that’s him being nice…#and tbh not just Bruce this goes for the writers as well#you only read Tim’s stuff and maybe wfa so when Tim gets stagnant writing you go ‘dc HATES tim 😡’ when like.#they LOVE tim that’s how they show their love it’s shitty.#u wanna see who they hate look at Duke cass Damian and Steph#there’s 2 common denominators and they overlap for one of em 😬
