It's in the eye of the beholder

#comic #birds #my art #I've had this idea for a while #after a lecture that talked about how traits we consider cute are traits found in babies #I feel like birds would have a very different definition of cute from us #anyway after making the bird tutorial I feel the pressure to draw perfect bird anatomy #but tbh I still just wing it a lot of the time!!#hehe “wing it”

If that doesn't have potential for some fairytale nonsense, I don't know what does.

#time zones are a human invention #and sometimes they're downright absurd #spell components #that url for more info leads to a slightly longer article btw #among other things it tells me that someone swam between the islands in about two hours #freezing water btw #that definitely sounds like a quest challenge #'swim from tomorrow to yesterday without freezing to death'#'what???'#'you heard me'#fun facts

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.

#katniss everdeen #the hunger games trilogy #the hunger games #primrose everdeen #hunger games #batcavescolony reads the hunger games #suzanne collins #'now it seems i have become someone precious' NOW? GIRL BFFR you're their hunter girl #and this isn't negative just bffr girl #your WHOLE DISTRICT did the three finger salute that you yourself says means admiration thanks and goodbye to someone you love and on top is #old a rarely used. your WHOLE DISTRICT decided in that moment that they needed to bring back this sign of respect for YOU #...................................................................#idk why some people are thinking i mean this as negative i don't she is unreliable but its not intentional. like when Peeta heart stoped in #CF she doesn't know what Finnick is doing at first cus she doesn't know off the top of her head what cpr is. she also thinks Peeta after the #reaping is acting for the cameras. he isnt we dind out later his mom basically told him Katniss was gonna win and he would die. obviously #shes not doing it on purpose shes just for lack of better words uneducated? as in she doesn't know everything shes not omnipotent #so when Plutarch (? second games guy) shows her his mokingjay hiden watch shes like *wtf that's weird?* then the people traveling to #district 13 show her the mockingjay cookie and explains it and she then goes on the difference between his watch and their cookie #and why does eveyone act as if district 12 is as bad as the capital? they CANT help Katniss and Prim in the way you want. they cant give #them food. none of them have any! and im not putting iton Katniss but they hid they needed food so they could stay together. it sounds like #some of you are in this our world mentally of what people do after a loved one dies (brings food constantly checks on them etc) district 12 #cant do that. they dont have food and they're all suffering. you cant give someone food when you have none to give. then theirs the fact #that peeta DID help. Peeta buring the bread and tossing some to her then taking a beating from his mom is a HUGE thing in the books.#he used his resources to help her like you all said someone should.#district 12 DID (rip) care about Katniss before the hunger games. why do you think she was allowed to hunt? or how her trades were good #these are the little ways 12 can shows Katniss they love her. but again Katniss doesn't see this and YES its because she had ptsd before the #hunger games as well. i swear some of you make it seem like d12 was all living a life of luxury and glaring down at Katniss.#other things that show Katniss is in hight standing with at least her people of d12 is her dad was known enough through d12 for peeta dad to #comment on his singing along with his commenting on her mom. also her mom is a healer in the community. yeah her parents arnt the top but #of d12 but they are/were definitely high staning in the Seam.

Sentient Mystery Shack, who is really biased towards Stan, so when Ford tells Stan he has to give it back after the summer it’s on sight.

Ford keeps tripping over nothing, nothing is where it's supposed to be and somehow he keeps running into closets when he tries to go outside.

But the worst part, the WORST part is that Ford's lightbulb just won't. Work. No matter what he does it keeps flickering and exploding.

Ford is spiraling.

There is no reason why it shoudln’t work. All his trial runs work perfectly. He’s already checked the Shacks wiring three times and relearned this dimensions science from the ground up.

Nothing works.

The Rift? Bill? The impending apocalypse? Eating? Sleep? Who cares about that.

WHY. WONT. THE. LIGHTBULB. WORK???

It doesn’t help that Stan keeps laughing at him.

“Then you do it!” Ford eventually snaps at Stan.

Stan shrugs and with a little song under his breath screws his own lightbulb in. It works perfectly.

Stanford screams.

#gravity falls #stanley pines #stanford pines #the mystery shack #afterwards stan can be seen gently petting the kitchen door #the lightbulb shines a little brighter #that time in the show where soos mentioned how funny it would be if the exit door was actually a closet #thats a game the shack likes to play with soos #the kids are bored or need a new room? suddenly they find a mysterious new room in the shack #stan cant find his remote? the shack just really wanted to watch old timey movies with stan. it knows stan best. it knew stan would have fu #stans thr shacks blorbo after all #stan also turned the shack from a cold messy research facility into a fun home that gets lots of visitors #the shack loves the tourists and mr mystery #so many stories and different people to watch #stan also hasnt paid the electricity bill in years everything still works somehow #and if they hadnt defeated gideom when they did the shavk wouldve shown that little bastard why they used to call it the murder hut 😡#the thing is ford already checked if hes cursed or if something elsemis going on with the shack and he put gravity falls weirdness factor #into account but he cant find anything out of the ordinary #the shack is just going backt o normal.everytime he turns his scanners on to check #besides theres no way the shack would turn against ford -its his house he built it #so it definitely cant be that

Just some more thoughts on that jayvik dbh au

#I got a lot of people saying that Viktor should be the Android #which I did mention in the tags last time #but after thinking about it I just think that the human experience is such an integral part of viktor as a character #(aside from the fact that it makes every character ever)#his pain and suffering due to his illness and disability and class #like I can’t take that away from him #not that Jayce doesn’t go through his own things too #but I think Jayce’s naïveté from season one lends itself well to an Android in awe of human life #and a jaded but wise Viktor who still has a good heart and sense of humour #I mean this is just my version of the au and like I think I said in my tags last time im pretty sure I’ve seen a few around with android V #definitely got recommended some fics that I’m excited to check out!#sorry for rambling - this isn’t to discredit any other interpretations!! just kind of exploring my thought process behind it :)#oh also sorry that this is angsty lol #it’s fine #my art #arcane #jayvik #Jayce talis #jayce arcane #Viktor arcane #dbh #detroit become human #arcane au #noodles talks #(in the tags)

headcanon that percy is historically hard to beat at monopoly. and it's intially the most mind-boggling thing ever watching him turn the tide of a game. because he's definitely losing at the beginning. but percy is not only an amazing strategist. he has a deep understanding of money and knows how and when to bet on the board. he knows when to test his luck. and he's amazing at getting into people's head.

#don't place your bets on percy's opponent #because what is his life if not turning the tide in his favor?#i honestly think annabeth can definitely challenge and win a handful of games against him #but he does not make it easy for her and she both hates and appreciates him for it #headcanon that he and estelle routinely team up against annabeth because she views percy as the king of the game #(plus he make funny voices when reading from the cards and it makes the girls laugh)#percy jackon and the olympians #pjo text post #pjo #pjo headcanon #percy jackson #annabeth chase #percabeth #estelle blofis #percabeth + estelle

We all know the semi-canonical ‘all the Robins know to hide/duck inside of Batman’s cape, even as adults’ thing.

We also know that Danny ��is LITERALLY a ghost’ Fenton sucks at remembering his own intangibility while ALSO forgetting to look ahead of him.

All I’m saying is, Danny Fenton (or Phantom, if you’d really like) would absolutely SLAM into Batman on accident while running on roof tops and Bruce ‘Brooding Instinct’ Wayne doesn’t even think twice about letting the kid hide and scanning around for danger before there’s a record scratch of ‘wait who tf is this?’ kicks in.

#dp x dc #dpxdc #dc x dp #dcxdp #danny phantom crossover #listen I’m just SAYING #my initial thought is Fenton bc dark hair and how most of the robins have had dark hair #Danny isn’t even necessarily running from danger. he just got into parkour and forgot how to stop his momentum #I mean you CAN have him running from something. give this an ACTUAL plot #but honestly I just think it’d be a fun little setup #Danny peaks out and. in panic. goes #hi we’re the council of the dead. we’ve been trying to contact you and yours about your extended warranty #*extended life warranty or what have you #Danny hasn’t even gotten death vibes from anyone yet so now he has to wing it #yeah hi… uh. Batman sir. if that’s your preferred moniker?#right so we’re basically the ghost irs and you owe death taxes?#yeah you know the saying. death and taxes. guarantees of life. haha.#which in this case means you owe money bc you aren’t dead yet. probably. idk I uh. JUST got the job .#anyways ohhhh hi yep you’re. red hood. yeah so. mm. yeah we definitely need to get you to the ghostly dmv #it’s the same as a regular dmv but people have actually been bored to death in there #(meanwhile Batman is like WAIT IS THIS SMALL CHILD DEAD?!)#(SURE WHATEVER IM RICH HOW DO I FIND A GHOST ACCOUNTANT AND MORE IMPORTANTLY DO YOU RESPECT GHOST ADOPTIONS?)

AU: Kuina lived and her father was supportive of her ambition. He sent her to Wano to learn the way of the swords so they meet again when Zoro arrived at Wano.

I just rlly wanted to design a giant Kuina after seeing how big Kiku is :)))

#zoro is gay but big women has a special place in his heart #i imagine kuina's vibes to be sooo different from tashigi's #she's definitely masc #and so cool #i love my giant swordswoman #roronoa zoro #shimotsuki kuina #artists on tumblr #one piece #one piece fanart #VERY MUCH not a ship if u havent realized #theyre canonically related ppl
