I had to find this and reblog this again because it's still true and I can't stop laughing

DipplinDuo like 3 weeks ago: Omg hi guys!! Welcome to my blog, I love and appreciate all of you so much!! Here's my fanfiction I'm working on - I hope you enjoy it!! Please don't be sad I'm here for you!! DipplinDuo now: I will actively plot how to emotionally devastate you all in a 1000 ways right in front of your face and I will laugh maniacally about it. Get gaslit, girlbossed, and gatekept.

the way i'm so unproductive regarding school on weekends but so productive on monday immediately ..... i should learn to adhere to this more

[errorid-mt7lt7k7unfr9ttfua5]

me when companies try to force you to use their proprietary software

anyway

Layperson resources:

firefox is an open source browser by Mozilla that makes privacy and software independence much easier. it is very easy to transfer all your chrome data to Firefox

ublock origin is The highest quality adblock atm. it is a free browser extension, and though last i checked it is available on Chrome google is trying very hard to crack down on its use

Thunderbird mail is an open source email client also by mozilla and shares many of the same advantages as firefox (it has some other cool features as well)

libreOffice is an open source office suite similar to microsoft office or Google Suite, simple enough

Risky:

VPNs (virtual private networks) essentially do a number of things, but most commonly they are used to prevent people from tracking your IP address. i would suggest doing more research. i use proton vpn, as it has a decent free version, and the paid version is powerful

note: some applications, websites, and other entities do not tolerate the use of VPNs. you may not be able to access certain secure sites while using a VPN, and logging into your personal account with some services while using a vpn *may* get you PERMANENTLY BLACKLISTED from the service on that account, ymmv

IF YOU HAVE A DECENT VPN, ANTIVIRUS, AND ADBLOCK, you can start learning about piracy, though i will not be providing any resources, as Loose Lips Sink Ships. if you want to be very safe, start with streaming sites and never download any files, though you Can learn how to discern between safe, unsafe, and risky content.

note: DO NOT SHARE LINKS TO OR NAMES OF PIRACY SITES IN PUBLIC PLACES, ESPECIALLY SOCAL MEDIA

the only time you should share these things are either in person or in (preferably peer-to-peer encrypted) PRIVATE messages

when pirated media becomes well-known and circulated on the wider, public internet, it gets taken down, because it is illegal to distribute pirated media and software

if you need an antivirus i like bitdefender. it has a free version, and is very good, though if youre using windows, windows defender is also very good and it comes with the OS

Advanced:

linux is great if you REALLY know what you're doing. you have to know a decent amount of computer science and be comfortable using the Terminal/Command Prompt to get/use linux. "Linux" refers to a large array of related open source Operating Systems. do research and pick one that suits your needs. im still experimenting with various dispos, but im leaning towards either Ubuntu Cinnamon or Debian.

Proper introduction post for my tokyo debunker oc! ><

“Paperwork again?!? Who do you think you are ordering me around?”

Name: Audrea Flores

Age: 19

Sex: Female

Species: Human

Blood Type: AB

House: Clementia

Status: Active (Cursed)

While visiting Japan for a school project, Audrea collided with the so called anomaly Kyklos. Now, she resides as a 2nd year transfer student at Darkwick Academy as the Honor Student.

More under cut:

Personality:

A true self-expressionist, Audrea is obsessed with fashion, makeup, and documenting her evolving style. While she’s always kind and generous, especially when it comes to helping classmates with assignments or offering guidance, she draws a clear line when people start pushing her too hard or treating her like a maid. The moment someone calls her “just the cursed honor student,” her patience thins fast. She isn’t afraid to speak her mind, even if that means getting a bit hurt.

Despite occasionally having trouble getting along with a few people, Audrea cherishes her friendships like treasures. Once someone earns a place in her heart, she becomes a vibrant presence in their life, talkative, witty, and always ready for a night out.

Audrea has a deep love for taking care of others, and it shows in the way she does skincare, makeup, and nails—not just as a hobby, but as a form of affection. She puts genuine care into each brushstroke and mask application, always aiming to make someone feel a little brighter and a lot more loved.

It’s surprisingly easy to befriend her—as long as you’re kind. She gravitates toward warmth, respect, and good energy

Originally from America, she doesn’t speak Japanese, instead relying on a translation artifact from Professor Hyde.

Likes: Fashion magazines, clothing, strawberries

Dislikes: Blood, horror movies, coffee

Side notes:

- Speaks English and Spanish (native tongue)

- Forced Cornelius to let her sew her own uniform

- She is closest to Rui, Kaito and Luca

- Audrea HATES Sinostra, dont make her go again, please!!

my writing is so broken rn i can only think abt my ocs atm but i offer a full profile of my oc🥹 also shes my ver oc mc!!

Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns will temporarily align, and here's why it would make it sense (from a writing perspective)

Look, we've all been burned by bad writing somehow Palpatine returned -and the WWE writers are known for their whims. And maybe, I'm picking up on strays that no one is consciously putting down, but maybe, just maybe! — so here is my batshit off the wall prediction for the upcoming storylines. With some textual analysis as back up.

If my predictions are somewhat correct, I'm booking a one-way ticket to Delphi. If not, please imagine this as a fun thought experiment.

And I know this sounds like the hopeful ramblings of a fan with too much nostalgia for The Shield, but please hear me out (also, I think Seth and Roman are the most fun when they're feuding, so...)

TL;DR at the end.

1. Chekov's Shield Bomb

This is about picking up what the writers/Seth have been putting down — and what they are putting down is Chekov's Shield Bomb. Especially in the built-up to WM41, Seth's has been big on mentioning The Shield and their history. It's only natural, in a feud between Punk, Roman, Seth with Paul Heyman in the mix it makes sense to mention eleven years of history and animosity.

And yes, Seth has made references before. Notably Royal Rumble 2022, WrestleMania XL. The big difference is, is those moments were created as a distraction/mind games against Roman. The current route they're taking is more nostalgia invoking. Seth keeps trying to get Roman to remember how great they were (are/could be) together.

He keeps mentioning Dean/Mox a lot (would love for Mox to come back, but given that he's at AEW I have low hopes). He keeps talking about how Paul Heyman brought Seth, Roman, and Dean together. The entire built-up to WrestleMania was filled with Seth loudly and proudly proclaiming it's about him and Roman — and together they can take out Punk. Seth went as far as begging Roman to please do a Shield Bomb with him, which at that point Roman nearly accepted but ultimately declined. Chekov, meet the loaded gun.

And sure, with so many storylines being set-up all the time, not everything might be used. But if I were writing a story, or even reading a book — I would underline that stuff and call it heavy-handed foreshadowing. From WWE's standpoint, it's also a smart thing to do. Not only does it serve as foreshadowing, it also serves perfectly as a primer for people's actual nostalgia around The Shield and as a way to measure people's reactions online before (hopefully) actually committing.

And well, if you show the gun, you gotta pull the trigger.

2. 2 vs 3

Right now, the biggest problem Seth's faction has, is that Seth and Bron are outnumbered. As I'm writing this (May 14th) Bron and Seth (and okay, Heyman) had to powder twice already because Sami, Punk and Jey clearly have more combined manpower. Obviously, if Seth needs to expand his operation, he needs to rally more troops.

WWE can use this open job-application to promote new talent (and imo they probably should, given how old the average age in the men division is atm). But, if Roman comes back, and he aligns with Sami and Punk, then it becomes 2 vs 4 and they need yet another guy.

For an interesting story, it is probably also a good idea to get someone who can be put into heavy contrast with Bron Breakker. Bron is doing Seth and Paul's bidding without question, almost blindly in awe. Adding a second guard-dog wouldn't do much. Now, adding someone who is actually wise to Seth's ways, who has their own agenda and who Seth views more or less (a little bit on the less) as an equal? That would work.

3. The great Wiseman heist of 2025

Punk, Seth and Roman have had this huge 3 way feud with a climax at WrestleMania. If they continue this as a 3 way feud, after Seth has been crowned the winner, then what was the point? To brawl forever and ever and your wins never matter because next week you're in the same fight? Ideally, you move on from that in new and interesting ways. We've already had the Punk and Roman alliance during war-games, and I wouldn't want to rehash that if I were writing this. Roman's recently aligned with Punk, and look where that got him? A favour owed and a Wiseman that left him. Punk’s betrayal and Wiseman-heist is probably more freshly on his mind than Seth's steel chair, a near 11 years ago.

CM Punk and Roman Reigns on the same side again — that should be out.

4. The Bloodline is in shambles

Okay, I hear you — there's a bunch of logical set-up but why would the Tribal Chief even want to align himself with what is basically his bitch ex-wife arch-nemesis.

Well — what else has Roman got left?

Roman got his Ula Fala back, he is acknowledged as the tribal chief but right now, in the WWE universe, who is there to rule? Jey got out earlier, and has a title over him (rude) Solo and Jacob Fatu already started their own faction which is also falling apart as we speak. Jimmy's on Smackdown and at this point in time will likely side with his brother if given the choice.

But Seth? Remember point 1! Seth has already said many times that it's him and Roman forever. He's said that he hates Punk, but that he loves Roman. Everything Seth does to Roman, comes from a place of (twisted, fucked up, unhealthy) love.

At the very least, Seth's not Punk.

And Seth's got an ego, thinks he's smarter than everybody else. Al Roman needs to do is grovel a little bit and Seth will say "I told you so" and then welcome him with open arms. And hell, Seth's even got Roman's ex-girlfriend Paul Heyman. Which, Paul still acknowledges Roman at the OTC.

5. Steel chair part 2 electric boogaloo

Roman probably wants his power back. Be the top-dog again, get his title back. The quickest way to accent to power is to align with the new regime, throw your unique set of skills into the mix and help cement the new Bloodline Vision as a force to be reckoned with. There will be constant tension between Roman and Seth (and Heyman) as they bid for the leadership position, but ultimately Roman relents.

Well, until...

The thing with being in power is, it makes you vulnerable to coups. In a beautiful reversal of what has happened in the past — Seth lets his guard down around Roman just enough. And Roman will take Seth down with a steel chair — take bake his girlfriend Wiseman and is back on top. Perfect way to give The Roman Reigns somehow an underdog storyline again and bank on that sweet, sweet nostalgia in a moment that is sure to go internet viral.

Death, taxes, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns hitting each other with a steel chair.

TL;DR: The writers have been setting up a lot of nostalgia for The Shield, they could be cashing in on. Adding Roman to Seth's new cult would add an interesting dynamic and solve some logistical issues. For Roman, it makes sense to rise to power this way and commit a coup later to instal himself as the new-new top dog again — and yes, there will be inevitable steel-chair related betrayal.

Does anyone have suggestions for literature on Allonormativity and Amatonormativity? My undergrad thesis is about the ways they've evolved in our cultural conceptions of love and sex over time, and especially how they're used as tools of oppression. Unsurprisingly, there's not actually much in terms of foundational texts on most of this so i figured I'd shout out to see if anyone had anything.

So far I've scoured the Asexual and Aromanticism Bibliography, which led to some academic work, but several pieces are inaccessible to me rn (i imagine they're student papers which would make sense). I plan to see if there's anything applicable in Angela Chen's book Ace, and I'll be looking into Elizabeth Brake's work, as the originator of the term 'amatonormativity.'

In terms of history, the plan atm is to re-read John D'Emilio's book on the history of sexuality, look at Foucault's histories of sexuality, and look at historical and contemporary legislation/media, idk. It sounds like a lot but i think I'm in denial about it.

Feel so free to dm me or reblog or whatever, i just feel like tumblr has a pretty high concentration of people in the know about Queer theory and asexuality/aromanticism.

Hello my loves! 🍁

It's been a while (once again... sowwy). Sorry for being MIA for so long.

This year has been so stressful and busy for me but I'm happy to announce that I finally graduated and have my degree! 🥹

It still hasn't quite sunken in that I'm done with uni and it will probably take a little while longer.

I already applied for a legal clerkship and will have to do that for the next two years should I get the position that opens in September and if I don't have to wait longer. It will be a new chapter of my life that I'm both anxious about (especially financially since it's gonna be expensive af and my pay is gonna be absolutely ass) but also look forward to since I'm going to learn new things.

I could go on an extended rant about how my oral exams and everything was so late and how I had to basically do backflips blindfolded while running at high speed to get my application out in time, but that's a story for another time or if it interests you, shoot me an ask 🫶🏻

Either way, I hope you all have been well!

I miss you lot and I hope so much that I'll finally get some time to write something again soon because, gosh, I miss writing too 😭

The shiba is a representation of my current mood. I feel really happy atm.

[fairyniceyeah]

Tell me about the thing you are currently obsessed with, whatever it may be - with love, @darl-ingfics 🩷🩷🩷

Hey there @darl-ingfics!

Thank you so much for your question!

Honestly, I am really stressed about work rn, so I don't have specific K-Pop obsessions atm. I just don't have time. Tho I do love me some Seungcheol Met Gala pics XD

In Germany there was just church day ("Kirchentag"), a whole city transformed into a room to meet, connect, play, talk and pray together. It was a really amazing experience to see community this way!

Especially amazing to me was the bible study and the podium discussion with Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde - the very same American bishop who, well, made Donald Trump look like a fool at his inauguration. People loved her and showed her support. It was beautiful to see people, especially women, rally behind her. She really inspired me and her book about courage was the first real book I willingly read in years! I would call that my obsession currently:)

So yeah, I am busy at work and I am currently working on job applications since my job will be terminated at 30.09.25 but I am hopeful for that. However the change of work and general climate at work is leaving me reeling mentaly which is why I do have trouble working on fics currently since I come home exhausted and just go to bed.

Lots of love,

🧚🏻‍♀️

Have you seen this yet? I haven't seen anyone talk about it, but it's a small detail that got me thinking quite a bit about where Cassie's dad is right now. I don't think he's dead, like some have assumed (talking about the lunchboxes and Bonnie collectibles in past tense feels like it's referring to the non-current state of the objects, not the person mentioned alongside them) but it's a bit odd that Cassie doesn't bring her dad with her to save her closest friend, especially with him being a former employee who would know the place fairly well.

But with this sticky note in mind - most likely left behind for Cassie by her dad, seeing as it's found in the Glamrock Salon area which is a big location for Cassie backstory lore bits - maybe Cassie going to the Pizzaplex alone isn't that hard to believe. If Dad is off doing something else for long enough that he's leaving food money and emergency contact information, of course Cassie wouldn't go to him for help. She couldn't.

I'm actually of the mind that he could be who we play as in Help Wanted 2. There's a Fazwrench input on the elevator wall in the teaser (which we know he has), based on the note in Ruin he plans to be "gone for a while" which would be the case for whoever takes on the Help Wanted 2 job, and with Cassie's dad being pointed out so specifically in Ruin, I can only imagine Steel Wool has plans for him to appear in a future installment at some point.

(Though there's also the fact that there was only one applicant for the HW2 position, which points at that person being significant...which would either mean the player character in HW2 is someone else closer tied to the story, or Cassie's dad is a more significant character and we just don't know who that is yet.)

I hadn't seen it but I was told about it! And yeah, I find it very interesting. Atm my guess is Cassie's dad is going to be the Help Wanted 2 player. Either way he seems very important with how much Cassie references him, and the FNAF 3 number code being on the back of Cassie's Faz Wrench also catches my attention

Cash App Limits: How Much Can You Withdraw, Send, and Receive on Cash App?

Cash App transactions limits differ substantially between verified and unverified users. Verified Cash App users can generally withdraw, send, and receive higher amounts of money. Making their services far more suitable when transferring larger sums.  To increase Cash App limits, you must verify identity by providing details such as your full name, date of birth and last four digits of your social security number. You can also raise limits on Cash App, by liking a debit card such as Visa, Mastercard or Discover debit cards which allows more spending both offline and online. So, let’s begin and learn more about it.

Cash App Withdrawal Limits: How Much Can You Cash Out?

Cash App allows its users to withdraw funds for their accounts by either linking a bank account or debit card. Hover amounts you withdraw from Cash App may be subject to certain limits. Cash App has set weekly withdrawal limits for users who are not verified with them typically permitting up to $250 daily withdrawals or $1,000 monthly in general.

Moreover, verified users have higher Cash App ATM withdrawal limits. Once you successfully pass the verification process- which involves providing your full name, birth date and last four digits of your Social Security Number (SSN), your withdrawal limits will increase. After this you can withdraw up to $7,500 daily and $25,000 for a month.

Cash App Sending Limits: How Much Can You Send Per Day and Week?

I really do love kinich’s playstyle but I also love alhaithams so much but I’m f2p so it’ll get harder to get chars at one point can I hear how good his gameplay from you?

-wrio anon (who’s back in tumblr)

HMMMMM it’s a tough one bc I think that they’re a bit difficult to compare especially bc my kinich is c6 and I got his cons fairly early on so I don’t rly rmr his playstyle and dmg output at c0 all that well to properly give a verdict. I assume you’re aiming for c0 for the most part since ur f2p and wanna pick one over the other.

I think tbh it depends on the characters you have currently. If you have xiangling and bennett then I would say you’re mainly set for kinich team. I really vouch for the xiangling and bennett duo because xiangling is rly his best sub dps atm but she has some serious particle generation issues so getting her burst up is rough with kinich team unless you have bennett. I have 260 er and engulfing on her and I still struggle. Bennett rly helps with that issue and ofc he gives the attack buff and I usually slot in zhongli for the shield but kinich moves around a lot from a distance so you can get away with a different team member like maybe furina for burgeon if you need zhongli for a different team/don’t have him. His team options are really limited bc he’s specifically burn and burgeon and we have HORRIBLE pyro choices right now and with his spinning playstyle, sometimes xiangling’s burst isn’t always the most compatible. But his personal dmg is higher than alhaitham’s ofc

But alhaitham is super flexible with teams. You can play him on spread/hyperbloom and there are lotssss of team options for that and they’re mostly f2p friendly. He has good dendro application and between his burst and skill, having his chisel mirror uptime be constant is easy if you get a hang of his rotations. His personal dmg isn’t as high as kinich but with the whole team combined I would say he can perform just as well if you build everyone efficiently.

THE MAIN VERDICT is rly like. Which teams are easiest and most efficient for you to build and what characters you have. I do think though that because alhaitham is a little bit of an older dps and kinich is a bit newer, kinich naturally just power creeps him a bit and can sometimes outperform him with some of the newer bosses. Not that that’s always the case like alhaitham is still pretty good but I just don’t use him anymore it’s always Kinich for me BUT. Keep in mind that mine is c6 so his personal raw dmg without other supports is already pretty nuts. But I think kinich at c0 is still honestly superrrr good. IM A BIT TORN BC I DONT KNOW UR CHARAS AND WEAPONS but I guess generally assuming you can play either of them efficiently with a proper team, I would go for Kinich he’s easy to build too his best set gives him 40% crit rate bonus so all you have to do is stack a bunch of attack and crit dmg on him and ur set

FSR rambles PT 2

FSR rambles PT 2

More stuff I like about my own comic (Head cannons about why stuff is the way it is too)

So like, yeah Vio had a panic attack. He’s relatable to me. UwU (I write shit I can relate too. Lmao. Deal with it. X’D)

Also Vaati’s curse: Dark Link, I won’t say too much about his “Powerset” or what he does since most of yall can deduce so far what he “Can” do atm.

Smth about Vio/the four swords gang that has always struck me is:

HOW EXACTLY ARE THEY SPLIT UP? (Not physically, I think they’re magical bodies and Link’s body is somewhere in the spiritual realm but that’s a head cannon)

Like, it’s not just “They reflect emotions” that breaks down after Blue and Red. Anger and “sad/emotional” respectively. Green’s like a weird husk of the original Link. (Like…Idk he basically acts like any other Link in any other manga but bland. X’D which is why I gave him depression in FSR. He's infamously the most under- memed character in FS. He’s effectively bootleg/dollar store Link. Worse without the other 4 and bare bones Link by himself. Flavorless Link if you would. Watered down fountain soda because you added too much ice Link.)

Vio, at least, is really hard to pin down what part of the link he IS. (At least imo)

Let’s break down Vio’s traits:

At the start of the manga, he’s selfish, lowkey, rude/blunt, the ‘Smart” one (All of them are smart in their own ways tho so that’s not ALL.) He’s cunning, manipulative, rather cold, and generally “Negative” traits.

I think he’d be insecure about that. Identity crisis. Because well, he IS mostly “negative” traits. Or at least ones that are SEEN as negative and it’s obvious to ME at least, he feels alienated from the other 3. He comes off as lacking empathy too.

Basically: Vio’s own moral ambiguity makes him very uncomfortable. Because there’s no outrunning it.

This frame is fun, because Vio was reaching for his sword which, because he’s in the “Headspace” , wasn't there. But as Shadow Link mentions later, Vio was reaching for it in reality too.

I’ve gone on my rant, but imo this was a bold faced LIE. X’D

WHY DID YA DROP THE SWORD THEN FUCKER???

Lol so this is a headcanon: 

But basically: Why the hell would Vio formulate a plan with Shadow Link (One that even guarantees Zelda's safety as if he was REALLY trying to make it work…), just to drop it in favor of a “Quicker” solution?

He was uncomfortable as hell by Shadow Link’s confession, so decided “Yup, mirror shattering time.” Emotions make him uncomfortable. Especially Shadow Link’s because the very act of manipulating Shadow Link is very Un-heroic of him.

He couldn’t play the long game because it made him realize his own “Failings” as a hero, but that was the OG plan after gathering his thoughts in the woods. (At least to me.)

Infiltrate/get friendly with Shadow Link, find out who or what is behind Vaati after learning of “Gannon”, destroy Vaati, save Zelda and defeat Gannon.

He went with Mirror shattering because: 1. It makes the most logical sense. Cut off Gannon’s power supply AND destroy Vaati. Shadow link is an unfortunate victim but “It’s worth it”

I find it funny BLUE is said to be the one who’s “Willing to do anything to win” When I feel that is WAY more applicable to Vio. X’D Bitch was willing to do a LOT to save Zelda and defeat Vaati. And...similar to how he states at the beginning of the manga "Team schmeam I don't need any help". He goes off to invade the enemies ranks ALONE.

Art wise the Vaati wings on Dark link block out and make fire lol. Which I imagine makes Vio uncomfortable after that whole “Almost getting burned alive from lava” thing.

This is smth brought up in the twilight princess manga, which is fun because Vio’s outfit is very similar to that Link’s. X’D

The weight of being a hero and it's title being a heavy burden for whoever is "Link" at the time.

Now that Vio isn’t “The hero” doing something towards a hero goal, “Who the fuck is he?” FSR is kinda a thing where it's like "Okay sure Vaati's here...but he's like...a non issue lmao" they're kinda aimless. Who are they if not THE HERO. LINK.

Hahahaha

Okay these frames are so pretentious but here we go:

Dark Link is literally his insecurities being suffocating. X’D

Specifically: Considering Shadow’s words and his status as a hero.

Also all the eyeball imagery, so many people watching him fail/judging him.

Fun things art wise: Human teeth are scary as fuck.

I like the panel where Dark Link hugs him. Because an embrace can either be VERY UNCOMFORTABLE or very comforting depending on the context. Here it is very much NOT a comforting hug.

Also side note: Dark Link might come off as “Confusing” as a character…He’s very INTERESTING as the series goes on.

Vio snapped out of it but he’s still ain’t okay lol. Shadow Link didn’t hear Dark Link’s part of the “conversation” so he really just heard Vio mumbling utter nonsense. That would be scary as hell. Especially when he’s reaching for his weapon like dayum I’d cry too Shadow.

~Shadow Link blames himself~

He still feels like he’s on eggshells around Vio, he's aware their relationship atm isn't very stable. 

Lol so this is some of that sexy “Character development” i keep joking about with Shadow Link.

He’s still  a creature of darkness but he cares very deeply about Vio. 

Lol so smth you may notice is how: I fucking love how SINCERE Shadow Link is as a character. Like bro puts on a spooky act, but he’s just a sweet little guy that wants friends and he’s super open with his feelings. (I think he was just talkin’ his feelings in the woods too but that’s a head cannon. X’D He’s so weirdly soft with Vio out in the woods like…Bro)

It was a trait that bit him in the ass as a villain but I think that it shows that he is a good boy on the inside.

Lol so we all know how much Shadow Link hates pity, he doesn’t pity Vio, he emphasizes. And i think bro just really wanted to be hugs (HE’S SO TOUCH STARVED LMAO)

Even lines like “They’re all a big happy family in the dark world” (Paraphrased) show to me Shadow just REALLY wants a support system/family/SOMEONE he can rely on. X’D

So he says shit he wishes someone had said to him.

Also he hasn’t been able to physically HOLD someone in 7 years, Shadow Link misses physical touch like crazy.

Hug didn’t work lol.

Vio’s still frazzled.

I fucking love Shadow Link’s face “CURSE WHA-” like Vio’s really talking utter nonsense and it’s kinda funny ngl.

Vio didn't mention Dark Link so, to Shadow Link: Vio brought this up just because he's spiraling atm.

*cough cough* “You’re guy’s house” *cough cough* he doesn’t consider it HIS house too…

Continues to apologize for…nothing. Ouch.

Still blames himself for setting Vio off- oof.

Lol. Everything Vio says in the library is very telling of how he feels the pressure to be the one to come up with a plan to fix things. Because “He’s the smart one”. Even when LITERALLY NO ONE has put said pressure on him to fix things as Blue and Green outright don’t wish to be Link again, and Red complained back in the headspace

*Dies* Shadow Link is best boy. He tries to hard. TTuTT

Also Vio continuously gripping Shadow Link because he wants Shadow Link close to him. 

You can tell he isn’t trying to hug Vio anymore because that didn’t work lmao. He touches Vio a lot less and only in comforting ways (Patting his arm, his head, rubbing his arm ex), Vio’s actually the one who keeps pulling him closer.

Vio is correct here: He’s TECHNICALLY in no physical danger.

Dark link choking him in the headspace didn't do squat to him. It’s Vio’s own thoughts that are fucking with him.

Lol that statement is very bloated. Vio realized “Holy shit, he’s still here after EVERYTHING.”

The manipulation in the past, the panicking. 

Shadow Link’s just, still there for him. He isn’t leaving, and shows no sign of wanting too.

100% accurate. Shadow has no obligation to be helping Vio rn in any way. At all. Especially after how Vio’s treated him. Shadow's even looking for books to help with the curse that MAY OR MAY NOT even be affecting Vio for all Shadow Link knows.

Cause Shadow link: Is cool.

Lol so he DOES wanna be touched.

Okay funny story about pages 63-65 : These look so sketchy because I literally was like “doing line art for these expressions would ruin them” So they’re sketches. X’D

About the panels themselves: Shadow Link’s response to getting thanked in the manga makes me think he REALLY wants to do good things and get complimented for them. So when Vio thanks him (Smth he didn’t expect) he gets embarrassed.

Vio is FINALLY HONEST WITH SOMEONE ABOUT HOW HE FEELS.

He can’t run from it anymore lmao. So he has no choice but to tell him.

Lmao funny story: OG draft Shadow Link laughed at the "I'm a bad person" line. X’D

I’m glad I cut it but it also would have been very funny because like…Objectively no. Vio you’re not a “typical” bad person. And from Shadow’s perspective Vio is anything BUT a “Bad” person. He’s the “Hero”.

While not directly apologizing, Vio does admit to feeling like utter shit for what he did. Which is, SOMETHING. “Sorry ma i goofed up” vibes. XD

Lol. Of course you don’t. Simp- I say as a joke. But fr, from Shadow's perspective, this is kinda a weird admission. Vio's "Naughty" if you'd word it that way- X'DDDDD

*Implodes*

Okay fr out of ANYONE he could have shape shifted into during the vaati fight…Shadow Link chose VIO.

We know he can look like Green, so…The choice to look like Vio was very…deliberate. X’D

Almost like he looks up to him or smth...

Vio being utterly bamboozled by this information. X'D "YOU WHAT!?"

Fun thing about this being a fan comic: I can make them explicitly gay. X’DDD SO THEY ARE.

And that's all for now. I might do more later with more pages. X'D

It's fun to just, go off about my own crap. Cause I only get to do that with my friends usually.

[jiiamp]

HELLO I REALLY LIKE YOUR APPLIC TERMS THANK YOU THANK YOU I LOVE. I LOVE THE APPLE S TY

ty!! that’s so nice to hear :D

I really wanna make some more but in order to do that I need motivation, and I’m kinda lacking in that department atm

will hopefully continue soon tho, especially if I discover some really wonky apples

and perhaps… (assuming I get really ambitious) other foods with multiple species could be made as well…

Tye Talks: A Diary Entry

(22/02/24 || 22:58 pm)

Good evening friends, I hope you are all well and having a lovely Thursday! Just one more day till the weekend! Yay <3

Inspired by the lovely @the-winds-of-destiny-xxx , I've decided to start blogging about my day. Hopefully, I will be able to stay up to date lol.

Work

Ugh, I've been up since 5am prepping myself to deliver my second lecture of the semester. It went well, kinda. The students were super interactive which is great. Application + practicality > regurgitating information. They did super well. Also, we have a new HoD, and while I really liked our previous heads, the new HoD is a breath of fresh air and I really enjoy their approach towards education.

My full-time job is actually soooo … atm. My colleague has resigned which is all cool and I wish her the best.

But, there’s a trend I’ve noticed recently within our organization … and I hope it does not present any problems in the future. Tbh, I think it has presented a problem before … but idk. Anyway, constructive criticism goes a long long way … only if you’re keen and willing to learn …. which this person defo is NOT.

Enough about my colleagues, the CEO presented me with an opportunity but I'm lowkey nervous .. bc I prefer being a private + somewhat anonymous person lol, but I obviously said yes. Let's see how it goes, anything can happen and this whole project might fall through. Especially in this economy.

All in all, I really love my job and the career path I’ve taken. I hope it does not backfire on me later on in life.

Uni

Gosh. Uni is the bane of my existence atm. Tho, i did make a bit of progress on my thesis today. I know exactly what I need to do, but I just don't have the motivation to it. But, I think I've finally got myself together .. so let's see what happens.

Also, I'm so grateful for my thesis supervisor <3 she is so understanding and supportive.

Health

Is this tmi? Maybe? Apologies if so?

But, my nose and throat have been KILLING me recently? Idk if it’s bc of the fan or what … but yup. Thank god for cloves! They’ve helped wayyyy more than anything else I’ve tried lol. Also, my pms is really starting to hit 😭😭 I’ve been in soooo much pain since I got back home.

My mentally, I’m doing okay … there’s obvs moments in the day where I’m like shit?? I’m an adult adult?? Yet my life feels so stagnant 😂 but then I try to keep it moving and not think so much about what I want … and I try to focus on what I do have…. bc I’ve done my best.

Fun and mundane

I finally got to go to my first gym class of the week - I really needed that! The housewives from my class invited me for smoothies afterwards … and they are so fun! Are they my mums age mates? Yes 😂😂 but I loved hanging out with them .. they truly live in their own bubble .. I wanna be exactly like them when I’m older lol.

Oh Oh! And I finally finished the second season of Al Rawabi School for Girls ... flip, it truly broke my heart. What an amazing show.

I really wanted to start the new season of Real Housewives of Durban … but the new Showmax app is truly YUCK! I have the ick 🫠🫠 but, I love the show waaaaay too much, so I’d probs get over it soon lol.

Other than gym and catching up on tv, I made a delicious lasagna for dinner. I'm convinced that my homemade meat sauce and cheese sauce remains undefeated, or maybe that's just me being cocky lol. If I had more space, I would have defo attempted to make the pasta too.

I'm super excited for this weekend bc my friends and I are going to this art and music event and getting food afterwards. I also really wanna buy that duvet set I saw online ... since I'm no longer purchasing an apartment (recession boo boo boo 🍅🍅🍅), I may as well just re-do my current apartment lol. It already looks great, but I've been putting off getting a new duvet set bc I presumed I was gonna buy a bigger bed lol... so I've just been rotating between the two sets I have ... and damn they've seen better days lol.

Relationships

After all he has been through, my brother finally has some great things happening. I am so proud of him. I know he will achieve everything he aspires to <3 This has also done wonders for his self-confidence, he truly needed this, and I hope ... I really hope that it stays on this positive track.

Positive family news aside, idk if anyone saw the post about my uncle? But god damn I'm annoyed af. (Side note: He is my mums cousin btw; but my entire family is close). Anyway, my uncle called my mum to rant … and according to my mum he was sooooo proud of what he said to his wife??? I’m just disgusted. Idk how. His wife could forgive him for this. I’m so glad my mum put him in his place ✋🏽✋🏽✋🏽

I know its not about me and I have no right to speak on other people's relationships, but I hate seeing people put their all into a relationship and even go against their own family to be with someone ... only for their partner to treat them like this. His wife deserves soooooo much better and its sooo heartbreaking that she has to go through. My heart truly breaks for her. I pray everything works out for her.

Conclusion

Anywho … if you made it this far! Thank you for reading my ramblings <3 wishing you a lovely day! Stay safe babes 😘

okay so time currently in the doctor who universe is very… bendy atm

easily influenced, as seen by the mavity joke, especially because the word gravity, in the context that donna was using it, already existed in 1666, and had been in use since the early 1500s. also i this is a silly little theory i do not think rtd knows the etymology of ‘gravity’

(examples below the cut)

anyway, i know that it was just a joke, but it potentially implies that time as a whole is being warped incredibly easily, and with that, space and the universe, since within the whoniverse, space and time are deeply connected (they probably are in real life too idk). the fragility of spacetime could also potentially be a result of the loosening borders between universes/realities, which ties in with the toymaker, as he exists outside of the known universe, and since the timewar effectively closed off the universe (apart from in the doctor’s wife i guess and season 2) it could be a sign of something deeper. i also think that tampering with superstition may reappear in the next episode, perhaps, because jt seemed like a very specific thing to include.

i’ve seen a few theories about how the music used in certain scenes is similar or the same to rose’s theme and themes used when the universe’s walls were weakening, but i don’t know enough about music to comment on that

another important thing is that the doctor does remember the word gravity, which aligns with them in past stories being aware of changes in time, such as in the waters of mars

i don’t have a super clear point here but i might rewrite this later (not at 2:21 am) to sort out my points a bit

Origin:

late 15th century (in gravity (sense 2)): from Old French, or from Latin gravitas ‘weight, seriousness’, from gravis ‘heavy’. gravity (sense 1) dates from the 17th century.

^Oxford Languages

I.3.1509–Weighty dignity; reverend seriousness; serious or solemn conduct or demeanour befitting a ceremony, an office, etc.; staidness. In later use with wider application: seriousness or sobriety (of conduct, bearing, speech, temperament, etc.); opposed to levity and gaiety.

1509: Let these folys auoyde this mad mysuse And folowe the right way of vertuous grauyte.
