Most of the time, Barley keeps a pretty decent self-esteem, or at least a positive view of it, but she still has trouble dealing with some of her flaws, mainly the physical ones.
So far, hiding what she doesn't like has proven to be the most effective one, tho it's not the healthiest approach tbh.
[Uncommon questions for OCs and their creators]
40. How sensitive are they to their own flaws?

earlier this year I started writing a comic about the siege perilous-grail quest situation after finally finishing the didot perceval, and it started circling around kay and perceval. kay as gatekeeper, taboo anxiety vs chivalry, and perceval not doing things "correctly," arthur's enduring affection for kay. that general area. also the horror of the grail quest itself.
this is comic is part of that narrative arc, so with THAT in mind: this is an abridged scene of a longer arc revolving around kay associating camelot with a cage, perceval's associations with jewelry and knighthood and the color red, and arthur's relationship with kay.
[some other scene context: perceval has injured his hand and can't participate in the tournaments, so he's craving some kind of fight. kay is disinterested in replying to this challenge, but he's not above reminding perceval of their first meeting. it's just mean enough in a weird-intimate kind of way that perceval's like, ok so we're doing the antagonistic version of court romance rituals. he picks up hunting because kay can't leave the castle.]
on the subtext of jewelry:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Clothes Make the Man: Parzival Dressed and Undressed, M.D. Amey
on the topic of kay, gatekeeping, and taboo anxiety:
Tumblr media
Cei and the Arthurian Legend, Linda Gowans
the whole Red Knight/Perceval Shows Up In A Dead Man's Suit Of Armor transgression-situation (which kay references through red jewelry) mentioned is told in both de Troye's and Wolfram's Perceval narratives :)
anyway! to close out all this out: the transgressions. incredible! what is camelot but a bunch of transgressions stacked on top of each other tbh.

hope you feel better soon!

I am riddled with ailments, but I stay silly!
#ask#non mdzs#My health journey has been: Hernia -> acid reflux -> Vocal pain due to aforementioned reflux -> chest infection.#I'm terrified to know what's about to hit me next. Please let it be something kind. PLEASE.#The consequence of living with linguists is that you'll wake up with a wacked up voice -#suddenly you're sitting you down in front of a program called something like Praat having your shimmer and jitter levels calibrated.#They gave me a GRBAS of 33012. I have a fun thing called a pitch break where a whole octave just does not exist.#My vocal pain was bad enough I ended up seeing a speech pathologist and that whole experience was super neat!#I learnt a lot about voice - to be honest I might make a little comic on it after some more research. Fascinating stuff.#For example; your mental perception of our voice modulates the muscles of the vocal folds and larynx.#meaning that when you do have changes (inflammation = more mass = lower frequency)#your brain automatically attempts to correct it to what it 'should sound like'. Leading to a lot more vocal strain and damage!#And it gets really interesting for trans voice care as well - because the mental perception of one's voice isn't based on an existing sampl#So a good chunk of trans voice training is also done with the idea of finding one's voice and retraining the brain to accept it. Neat!#Parkinsonial Voice also has this perception to musculature link! The perception is that they are talking at a loud/normal volume#but the actual voice is quite breathy and weak. So vocal training works on practicing putting more effort into the voice#and retraining the brain to accept the 'loud' voice as 'normal'.#Isn't the human body fascinating?#Anyhow; Now I have vocal exercises and strategies to reduce strain and promote healing.#Which is a lot better than my previous strategy of yelling AAAH in my car until my 'voice smoothed out'.#You can imagine the horror on the speech path's face. I am an informed creature now.#I'm my own little lab rat now. I love learning and researching. Welcome to my tag lab. Class is dismissed.#I'll be back later with a few more answered asks </3 despite everything I'm still going to work and I need the extra sleep.#Thank you for the well wishes! And if you read all of that info dump; thank you for that as well!

POURRIR DISEASE (AS DEPICTED IN THE “IN ROT AND INFECTION AU”).
STAGES OF POURRIR.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Pourrir disease seems to progress faster when ingested, or when infected individuals have a lot more power for stronger Craft.
Pourrir in bread and pastries appears similar to mold at first, then progresses into unusual lumps if left unintended for too long.
Currently no proper name for the gunk. Looks like blood, but is far too thick, smells far too foul, and tastes far too rancid.
Infected individuals appear not to be cognizant in final two stages. Mainly unnaturally happy at all times.
Distancing yourself from an infected loved one as they progress through pourrir disease may limit your risk of getting infected.

Tubbo: [About the image Crumb sent him] This one is me?
Crumb: I feel like you're gonna take it as an insult since you hate birds.
Tubbo: That is literally so fcking offensive. You may as well have just called me the f slur, this is why you're the worst.
Crumb: WHA- [Mic cuts out] YOU'RE HALLUCINATING You made that up in your brain!!!
Tubbo: That's fckin' crazy, I'd rather- I would rather you started pelting rocks at me and screaming the f slur than compare me to this bird.

Being constantly surrounded by the presence of a loving God sounds great until you realize you never know when his freaky fuckin eyes are gonna show up to check on you.
And man. They do it a LOT.
#primus please let the mech breathe#what i want to emphasize most with this iteration of optimus is the inherent fucking terror of being made a prime#really pick at those little threads of how fucked the matrix as a concept is. same with the staple tropes of op himself#the idea in tfp that it can entirely change your personality. and that if you lose it you cannot remember your time with it#those implications send me spiraling. to what degree is optimus the same being as orion pax? do you forfeit your soul to be a demigod?#do you fucking die to become a conduit for the higher being that made you? letting it puppet your mind and body like a parasitoid?#if death in transformers is simply rejoining the allspark; if the soul is something splintered off from the whole;#and if to die as a cybertronian is for that fragment to merge with the whole once again. is a prime not fundamentally a dead mech walking?#a prime stands with one pede in the afterlife and one in the land of the living and has to keep up with both at once#constantly seeing visions from a plane his processor was never meant to comprehend with optics that were never built to see it#forced to adapt into an elevated being as much as a frame that still has silly things like wants and needs and emotions and base coding can#how does a mortal live when his body is no longer just his body; but a vessel fir something holy and a tool fashioned to heal the world?#when he can never truly be alone again and he has to simply live with the ever present knowledge that he is being watched#both by his god and by the world#how does one live knowing not even their thoughts are private? when your god may be living but man he does not get the idea of boundaries#guess it must be hard to grasp personal space and all that when youre an ocean of souls that left it behind#maccadam#transformers#wayward sparks#optimus prime#art tag#sometimes i feel kinda bad for putting this bastard through The Horrors. if ws gets made all the way he will be thrown so many bones#only sometimes tho >:3

GOD-TOUCHED (GOD-SCARRED)
got to thinking about the ways that gods in The Silt Verses leave their marks on their devotees. then got to thinking about the scars that Faulkner got from the Trawler-Man's angel, and the gender-affirming care he got as a result of joining the Parish of Tide and Flesh, and i decided to fill his top surgery scars with limpets.
and then i was thinking about Paige as a trans woman giving birth to a deity that is trying to burst violently out of her, and how the Wound Tree is acting upon her body in a way that is not self-affirming, but which is now part of her regardless, and i decided to give her a c-section scar full of thorns and crocuses.
much to think about.
detailed image descriptions under the cut (copied from alt)
1: A digital drawing of Faulkner's topless torso. His top surgery scars are filled with limpets and barnacles, and the scar tissue has turned a sickly lichen colour. His nipples have become misshapen from the changes. There is a similar slashing scar running diagonally from his right (viewer's left) hip up to his clavicle. Faulkner is drawn thin and pale-skinned, spotted with acne, and the hair under his armpits and on his stomach is blond. From the light, looks to be under dark water.
2: A digital drawing of Paige's midsection. She has her left (viewer's right) hand to her stomach, over her naval and the C-section scar that starts there in an inverted T shape. Below the scar, there are dense white crocus flowers gathered, protruding and budding from under her skin. The skin of her hand is turning to bark and has black thorns protruding from it, and this is also happening around the scar, blending into her stretch marks. Paige is drawn as a mid-sized woman with medium brown skin, and is wearing a black bra. A tree's canopy is casting leafy shadows over her body.

FOREWARNING FOR GROSS-OUT SKIN CLOSEUP SHIT DON'T YELL AT ME FOR SHOWING YOU has anyone else gotten this really weird phenomenon on youtube. I swear every algorithm on every website is actively and purposely worse now. Where you'll be scrolling through vids after searching for something (I was looking at crochet stuff) and SANDWICHED IN THE MIDDLE OF ACTUAL SEARCH RESULTS... YOU KNOW. LIKE THINGS RELEVANT TO THE KEYWORDS I TYPED
Tumblr media Tumblr media

Sandwiched between videos about GRANNY SQUARES. crack? is it crack we're smoking????
