ahhhhhhh I also have synesthesia! Mine is associative, so I don't actually perceive the colours of numbers & letters; it's more like my brain fills out inappropriate fields in the files for various things. It's also not super consistent in strength. Like most numbers & letters have the colour field filled out, but only some of them have the colours listed in their file previews? So while I don't always immediately think "black" when I think of 5, if I open the file & actually ask myself what colour 5 is, I know that it's black.
Anyway, point being, of the numbers with their colours listed highest on their file previews, 7, 3, & 6 are definitely up there. & 7 has always also been green for me (more of a pine green though) & 3 is yellow & 6 is like a marigold orange colour. (9 is a strong true orange.)
I love hearing how other people with synesthesia experience things & looking at similarities & differences between people's associations/perceptions. It's hella fascinating.
You have synesthesia?? How does that work for you? Is this how you manage to use the word “meat” in a way that makes me go “holy shit that’s good and cool i need to read that sentence four more times” instead of “ew”?????
I do!!! Letters, numbers, and words all have colours and sometimes visual textures for me-- and while numbers and letters on their own are generally only a single colour (7 is a bright, grassy green!!! while "K" is a pale peachy pink, for example :] ), when i put them into words they often take on entirely new colours, some of which even bleed into each other like watercolour paints. Ironically, its why i use the UK spelling of "colour" in the first place-- the "u" turns what looks like a dull, desaturated blue into a smeared blue-and-purple that i find really pretty to look at :]] so when i say i like to paint with words, i kinda mean that literally 😂😂😂😂😂
But yeah, i'd imagine thats why my writing is Like That™ to some degree-- a lot of what im doing behind the scenes involves matching the colours and visual textures of a given word with all of the others in order to evoke a particular vibe or image in my writing. There are a lot of layers to how i write, but this is probably the one that takes both the most time AND is the one i happen to talk about the least WKDJWKSJEJ
#Do really love that when projective synesthetes describe their experiences#they generally make sense to me#I might not experience the same things as them but putting those characteristics on that sensory input just Makes Sense#like I've never really had a colour association with the word colour spelt with the u#but now that you say it's a smeared blue & purple I'm just like#Damn that makes perfect sense actually#(I prefer to use the u despite being American because it's uh more... swooshy? than color.)#(Color feels very stiff & formal & drab while colour is more sweeping & swirly & expressive.)#But yeah.#Synesthesia is super cool.#Artists using their synesthesia in their creative processes is also extremely cool.#Love to see it.

So what I need is for season 2 is Crystal and Charles to slowly start loosing feelings for each other in the first ep or maybe they’ve already lost them (but angst maybe that Edwin hasn’t realised) and Charles starts to develop feelings for Edwin and Niko comes back and Crystal starts developing feelings for her.
We get some jealous Charles and Crystal because Edwin and Niko start getting attention from new characters but Edwin and Niko kind of don’t realise/ignore it because they love Charles and Crystal so much.
#I saw that first meeting between crystal and niko and thought they’d fall in love#but nooo crystal was just mesmerised by the colours lmao#I want edwin to show his protective side for charles a little more too#like he definitely was protective of him this season but charles had more protective moments#I need edwin to go feral because someone hurt or upset his boyfriend#I’ve never read the comics so my only experience with these characters is the show#dead boy detectives#dead boy detectives spoilers#edwin paine#edwin payne#charles rowland#crystal palace#niko sasaki#painland#payneland#edwin x charles#charles x edwin#niko x crystal#crystal x niko

How did I get roped into doing another painterly piece with Ichiji and completely line-less no less. Not that I am mad about it because it was overall an enjoyable challenge to do and while not perfect I had fun making this piece. :3c
#one piece#vinsmoke ichiji#ichiji#vinsmoke#my art#When art pal convinces you to tried something different I mean it was a fun challenge. I just don’t like the results really. OvO’)#And again I had spent way too much time rendering it and I think I overdid it in places ha ha…#Yeah I kinda cheated doing kid Ichiji while the others did adult Ichiji but I wanted to do something a bit easier for myself. >v<‘)#But hey at the least the colours are nice although I had definitely a few mistakes here and there with it mostly the lighting.#But overall it’s was a good practice for me and it was fun to experiment with this type of painting style. :3c

(Idk if someone asked this already) since we’re on the topic of gender
sci what is gender to you and how do you see it in you and how you express it in your art?? (Just a young queer artist who wants some light shined upon them 🥺)
i 'unno ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
#gender is soup#sci speaks#i'm so sorry i know you might hope for something profound but... i think when i'm put on the spot like this i can't say anything really#i think whatever i am is definitely pervasive in everything i write#but like.. gender means something different to wade than it does for peter.#just like it'll be different for everybody. we make different associations based on our experiences and our trauma.#like.. wade associates femininity with love. because of his mother. associates masculinity with violence. because of his father.#peter associates masculinity with responsibility. because of uncle ben. associates femininity with confidence. because of aunt may.#i think there's all kinds of reasons why we choose to present the way we do. and what gender means to us.#just like we'll associate a colour with something. or a smell with a memory. it's complicated.#i don't think i'm some kind of expert on gender things but... i just find it interesting to explore. the psychology of it.#i don't think it's supernatural. it doesn't come from nowhere. but it should be a playground.#i don't think anyone in this world should be restricted to a certain role to play. i want to try all the roles and see how it fits.#see how well i can play them.#maybe because i haven't found one that quite fits. so i want the opportunity to try whatever i can. see what feels right.#i think it would be fun to be a wife. i think it would be fun to be a husband. i think it would be fun to be a firefighter. i think it wo#shrugs. different outfits for every day. different roles to play.#today i'd like to try...#i think it's like kids learning how to be adults by playing pretend. by playing roles.#i'm learning more about myself and other people and fitting into the world by trying on different roles.#kids playing house. you be the mom. i'll be the dad. yadda yadda.#i still feel like a bit of a kid who hasn't figured out how to be an adult yet. so i'm still trying out roles to see what fits.

Tbh I think the Barbie movie handled its theme of existentialism better than the feminism.
#the feminism of the barbie movie is nothing new#its nothing you wouldnt have seen in a 2016 tumblr post#and in its efforts to platform the struggle of misogyny it unintentionally shrinks the issue of other forms of bigotry#like it IS about a cis conventionally attractive white woman and the prejudice that she applies to her#because shes a woman. so is not on the TOP of the privilege scale and is going to face bigotry as a result#like Greta Gerwig clearly wrote what she knew#and she didnt feel she was educated enough to touch any other topics#the mistreatment of women is a layered topic and it is a complex matter depending on the varied range of women in this world#queer women trans women women of colour#they dont all experience misogyny in the same way that Barbie does#so its definitely not a very rounded discussion#like even Gloria focuses entirely on the pressure of just women in general#like you can claim that shes speaking from her own experience but. its very mouthpiece-ish#her speech is for the purpose of whacking you over the head with the film's message#yknow i think the focus leans too heavily as ''look what we as girls have in common''#but doesnt touch enough on ''but look how we differ too.'' a balance between those two concepts would have been nice#i feel like Sasha being like ''hell yeah white saviour barbie!'' was like a lazy acknowledgement that theyre AWARE of this issue#but like. theyre too deep into the script now#anyway yeah i was just thinking about this cuz of that gifset#Barbie feeling unsafe and being objectified in a public space#while Ken faces no issues whatsoever. even tho he is a loudly colourful flamboyantly dressed man on rollerskates#because we are going for a misogyny message here. so we need to poof homophobia out of existence for a bit okay??#like this is basically what i mean. putting misogyny under the spotlight#and as a result quietly pretending other social disadvantages dont apply right now. bending reality to reinforce the message that we want#this isnt like. a scathing criticism on barbie btw. i dont have a film critic brain#im dumb and i love everything#also im really not the person whos qualified to talk about this#this is just some word vomit because i cant stop thinking about it#anyway i think the themes of what it means to be human and live and breathe fucked royally#i loved that stuff

Ghost aren’t the only thing that haunt this place
A semi-redraw (I reused the background) of the older piece under the cut
#tried out a new way of colouring/shading for this one#I’m pretty happy with how my little experiment turned out#While I most definitely would not animate in this style I think I might use it again for other digital pieces in the future#(Side note: I spent like 2 hours trying to find a caption I was happy with for this post and I just couldn’t lol)#(It is what it is)#khml#khux#brain kh#kh fanart

Everything you remind us that gaon is infact an unreliable narrator my world reshifts and I question a lot of the things he says in the fic that I believe bcs I forget his unreliability.
As you should ;)
I mean, he's not the worst out there, but there are definitely some things that he's thinking that should be taken with a grain of salt. He's not so unreliable that he mishears or misrepresents what people are saying or how they're acting, but how he chooses to interpret what he's observing is... questionable at times. Just like some of the conclusions he's reaching aren't always the correct ones.
That's normal, though. Like, who among us could claim to always be correct when guessing what other people are thinking and feeling about us?
Ga On is a very perceptive and clever young man and he does read people a lot better than most, but as soon as his insecurities kick in, all bets are off. His anxiety will twist the things he sees into something that's not true or, in the case with "Yo Han and Elijah will leave soon," just jump to conclusions because he can't help but assume the worst.
In Ga On's case, it's never founded in malice or pride, however — which are both common reasons why a narrator might be unreliable. In his case, it's connected to trauma and bad self-esteem. He has a hard time remaining objective when it involves his own worth and how other people might view him. And so his emotions get the better of him and he reaches the wrong conclusions sometimes.
I would still say that he's correct the majority of the time, but it's definitely good to remember that it's not all the time.
#Amethystina Replies#Anonymous#Who Holds the Devil#I mean#This applies to Yo Han was well#Whenever I write his POV#Or any character I write tbh#I think all of them are unrealiable to some degree#Because all humans are#How we interpret things will always be coloured by our personal experiences#And if we were asked to explain something that happened#It would be a subjective recollection#The question is just HOW subjective and unreliable we are#And Ga On is definitely not the best#But also not the worst
