Gregory knows he looks LIKE HIM in FNAF..

#myart #chloesimagination #comic #fnaf #five nights at freddy's #fnaf fanart #michael afton #fnaf gregory #david afton #evan afton #security breach #fnaf 4 #tyler the creator #your guys weekly angst eat up girlies!!#This is in fact based off ‘like him’ by Tyler The Creator #and tbh I might make another song semi based off that song #seeing it surprisingly works with a lot of fnaf BAHAH #but the plot point Gregory is supposed to be in same way David #truly hits me in a way #either to the mimic or in this case Michael #to think Michael can’t help but see his brother in Gregory #that in a way he’s a substitution for him #it mimics a lot how in the movie Abby makes Mike think of Garrett etc #this is an ongoing thing with Michael as a character #and truly it destroys my poor little heart #so of course I had to share the pain 💜💜

The hidden shapes in stories and why drama isn't what you think it is - interview with @EHeathRobinson

This is a massive headline, I know. A massive headline for a massive and far-ranging conversation about storytelling. My host is Heath Robinson, whose YouTube channel has seen a stellar line-up of story nerds, including Christopher Vogler, author of The Writer’s Journey, Christopher Vogler, Matt Bird, author of The Secrets of Story, John Truby, author of The Anatomy of Genres, and Vic Mignogna,…

Every time I see an author promoting their debut Greek mythology retelling on twitter I mourn the loss of like. To put in ineloquently. Just using these stories as inspiration for your own. Your story does not need to force itself to fit the shape of Orpheus and Eurydice it’s fine you can just allude to their story!! You can use their themes!! Nobody is going to arrest you for being allegorical instead of literal!! I might eat them alive at this point. It’s the only way.

#like I think you have lost the plot a bit if you follow up ‘retelling’ with a setting so far removed from the original story #that you actively struggle to fit your stolen characters into their original plot structure #also none of them know what feminism is but I digress #talk

trigunned the hades or hadesed the trigun (id in alt)

#trigun #trigun maximum #nicholas d wolfwood #vash the stampede #meryl stryfe #milly thompson #millions knives #ruporas art #type of shit ive been on lately bc ive been playing an obsessive amount of hades 2 lmfao… ofc imstead of drawing fansrt for hades #i channel that energy into trigun?😭 SEE.. the thing is. i am ALWAYS thinking about a trigun game… like an action story game #it is rotating in my brain 24/7 and now after 7billion years i finally pick up a video game #and the inspiration sparked. obviously this is just a mere mimic of an existing media... but im thinking about the plot of max now #executed differently between mediums… webbing a new retelling of the original story as game mechanics allows you - thinking of the #new roles the characters would take. like wolfwood here is not Constantly by vash’s side but he will show up once a run to clear out an #encounter. shows up seldomly at home base to make gifting difficult... an existing companion and still journeys on his own. for more #relations options merylmilly will also have occasions where they separate so vash can speak to them individually - the gungho are not bosse #most of them get the roles of giving “boons” i think.. BUT ANYWAY thats me reimagining trigun into hades. now imagining trigun into an #ORIGINAL video game.... ough... ohhh....guhh... I WANT IT SO BAD!!!!!!!!#this was just a fun exercise... im thinking about doing more but i think i shouldactually draw some hades 2 fanart first

Tragic: Guy you based your entire villain backstory on doesn't even remember you

#art #comic #sonic the hedgehog #sth #shadow the hedgehog #infinite the jackal #sonic fanart #sonic #sonic forces #My funny BTS on this comic is Shadow's initial response was 'sounds like cope but okay' but I wanted something less internet-pilled LOL #I've drawn more Sonic Forces fanart than I intended but it is EXCLUSIVELY because I think Infinite is SO funny #I'm gonna shove him in a locker #Bro lost a fight once and it shattered his self esteem #He's been practicing his evil laugh for months and when he finally gets his chance Shadow hits him with the 'I don't know you'#Also since this is taking off I want to clarify: I am a hater in the silly sense. I understand why Infinite has fans #The bones of a good character are there it’s just the writing of this game failed him So Bad #Forces is my least fave Sonic game but I can’t stop thinking about it because of its missed potential #Forces tries to make a lot of very serious plot points but the impact is just not there. It becomes unintentionally funny as a result

Omg guys he just genuinely likes bugs and mollusks and critters 😭💘💔 Forced to noble when he just wanna crouch and watch things skitter in the dirt…

#Dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #spoilers #dungeon meshi manga spoilers #toshiro nakamoto #shuro #tfw you latch onto the first person you see that shares your interest #I’M SOBBINGGG #Yeah i didn’t know the hag monster tidbit existed so now I’m adding stuff into my masterpost #6 yo toshiro watching a snail and tuning out his nanny calling for him I’m screaming #This post is blowing up so: just for your information I made a masterpost on his whole family situation we do get a lot of info on him #His character goes quite deep it’s just not relevant to the wider story so Kui doesn’t go into details in the plot #So yeah look for that on my blog if you want. Also he likes flowers <3 #Nature lover toshiro

Bisexual crisis Crystal edition

#dead boy detectives #dbda #palasaki #palasaki week #it was supposed to be for the free day but i've completely lost the plot and I don't know if I'm on time #...or early #i know we all like to think crystal knows she likes girls #buuuut we saw her past. that is not an emotionally intelligent person #i think she was the kind of girl who put other girls down idk #i just think considering how she speaks for women so many times throughout the show #that it would be great character development #also charles figured it out decades ago #maybe even while he was alive #most of the time he crushes on girls though so you wouldn't know it #edwin probably doesn't know either i'm aware #but imagine if you will him reacting to this like "ugh #because he was there when Charles went through this journey and he did not care for it lol #whatever. niko you angel we all adore you #especially crystal... tho edwin might not like that #edwin: how dare you suggest you like niko more than i do?#preposterous

Imagine being Jack Harkness, seeing the Doctor flirt and fall in love with a brown-haired, blue-eyed, cocky, sardonic american man from the future in period dress only in it for the money with a cool ship and a tragic backstory who risks his life to save his blonde female friend and gets left behind to die and being like. dude.

#not my usual content but it needed to be said I think #this whole season is giving jack actually #Do I think rogue is jack? No. Do I WANT rogue to be jack? absolutely.#Unfortunately they shot themselves in the foot in 2005 by making jack such a great character and then giving him canon plot armour #doctor who #the doctor #fifteenth doctor #doctor who rogue #jack harkness #captain jack harkness #dw
