Jeri loses her digimon, and Takato gets to have the first biomerge digivolution.
These things are not the same.
#musings#bandit liveblogs#bandit liveblogs tamers#but also takato's entire arc is his fear of losing guilmon#jeri's is about her insecurities#and losing leomon plays so strongly into that - because she isn't enough she WASN'T enough#because if she was leomon wouldn't have died#like how impmon's journey is about power#but it's really about wanting power on his own terms#he doesn't want a tamer; he wants to be able to do things himself#but the price of doing things himself is destructive and comes at the cost of hurting his friends#LITERALLY#and when he changes and tries to ask for forgiveness#even though we know he's changed#it fully makes sense for jeri to tell him no#and to refuse#even if he could save her from the d-reaper#even if he's trying to help her#because it's— it is still HIM

Good morning, Sleepyhead.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#'WWX was asleep for 4 days' is an incorrect factoid.#The average WWX sleeps for 8 hours. The PD-MDZS WWX who was asleep for 40 comics and 4 months is an outlier.#We are back to present day! I have missed drawing them!#Ah...the contrast between how the flashback ended (cold and distrustful) to how wwx wakes up (warm and watched over)...#The gap between the past and present is very important. Not just in this story but in our lives too.#The past can still hurt and it doesn't just go away with time as some say. It is the power of realizing that things have changed.#We can't get the good back. The bad memories have concluded. Those live somewhere else now.#It is hard to realize that you have to live for today and tomorrow. The past is so loud.#For WWX it is realizing that despite the mistrust in the past - He really does have faith that LWJ will be there for him.#It is the reflection of knowing that you changed and will keep changing and that change is good and kind sometimes.#But more importantly...and this I really do mean with all my heart:#It will all end up okay in the end. Even after the worst day. The most painful losses. You will get through it.#What feels like a breaking point is truthfully just another step you have to take. You'll get through it even though it feels like the end.#There are wonderful things you have yet to see. Friends you have yet to meet.#Even if it hurts so badly...one day it just aches. Someday you'll go a few weeks not remembering that it ever hurt.#Oh and because my izutsumi comic revealed many people were in need of hearing this:#You are loved. Right now. You are so loved right now. We just forget to tell each other that.#Go tell the people you love that they matter to you. I'm assigning you homework!!! You are graded on completion.

“We need more morally gray characters” you guys can barely handle topaz and jade.
#yeah I said it#hsr#Honkai star rail#topaz hsr#topaz and numby#jade#jade hsr#hsr Jade#hsr topaz#like they’re not good but their not mustache twirling villains y’all#yes topaz did mess up by not telling bronya the actual success rate if she accepted the deal#but you have to remember she was indoctrinated since she was a kid that the ipc was good and that those who surrendered to its power will#succeed and thrive#hell they may have used examples like boothills home planet as warnings#of course she would think the ipc is good and will#help jarillo#her home planet was on the brink of collapse when the ipc came and it was quite literally life saving#even though it did mean robbing the future of a population to work for them topaz so grateful for the ipc and sees it as a way to pay back#you guys are forgetting that she was willing to sacrifice her position and that she was happy the planet could be independent#now we don’t know much about jade but she doesn’t go seeking out desperate people#those people come to her and accept those deals knowing full well every detail and it’s cost#she may get some pleasure from it sure but she’s just doing business with people#and yet I see people view them as villains and yet not call out aventurine with helping the ipc take control of penacony#he’s a victim yes but so is topaz when it comes to the ipc manipulating them#topaz has good Intentions and is just following what she has been taught since childhood#look I love aventurine I really do but he’s not pure and at the end of the day both him and topaz are people they are flawed#they’re not completely bad or good#sorry it was mainly about topaz we don’t know much about jade and I might change my mind on her when we do

I think if I were to put Percy in an alternate house Id actually make him a puff
like i get where people are coming from with he's ambitious = he's Slytherin like yeah makes sense
but I think i could make the same argument with He's hardworking = he's Hufflepuff
though this is more for like outside reasons
If he (or any Weasley really) was put in Slytherin i think the rest of the family would really not take it well at all
I wont say to extent of outright disownment but the way that person would be treated would be way worse especially by their siblings
that disappointment would be there with any house tbh but with like Hufflepuff it gets turned into a small thing
light jabs and such vs outright hostility
little things that build up over time that fit's thematically with how Percy felt less and less like he belonged in his family but that said family didn't think anything of saying
vs a strong explosion that a Slytherin sorting would cause
#percy weasley#really think you can make anyone fit in any house if you try hard enough#granted i don't like changing character houses much in my own stuff in general because it makes my brain go down the#“What is nature what is nurture how would their experiences change them” pipeline#their life would change so much from a young age what with who they spend the most time with and if they even feel at home in their house#And well because alot of characters i like in this series already don't have much to go on#so changing one of like three things we know about them makes no sense to me because is it even them anymore#though Percy doesn't actual fall into that category#but yeah i think if i ever did he would be a puff#also I do think Percy is Loyal too but most people might look at me like I'm crazy for that since he leaves his family#Elise's Thoughts and Concepts

I tend to believe that Gevanni not appearing in the A-Kira shot (and for like one panel in the C-Kira one) isn't done deliberately. I guess he did his job so well during the Kira case that Ohba found no other purpose in his character other than being The guy who made an exact copy of the Death Note for one night™. But there is something very ironic about how he is also the SPK member who has "unreasonable superiors" in his dislikes in H13, you can't help but see it as foreshadowing.
#stephen gevanni#we don't actually know why he is gone though#and even if he left it doesn't have to be dramatic#maybe he just realised he doesn't want to work something so dangerous for his whole life#cause Near doesn't really change his attitude towards his team after all these years

cw: harry potter, jk rowling, transphobia
I occasionally see posts/get messages about the various harry potter references in the bright sessions, etc. and I've gotten a bunch of new followers recently so just so any new/younger listeners of my shows know:
jk rowling is a terrible transphobe whom I hold zero respect for and I haven't given a dime of my money to her since she revealed who she truly is. I want the whole bright universe to be a safe space for trans people (including the trans folks in our cast and crew!) and if I could go back and remove those references, I would. but I can't! harry potter was an extremely significant part of my life until...well, until it became very clear who she really was. it makes me so sad to think that folks might be finding TBS now and get thrown out of the story by these references, but just know that the people who made the show do not stand by jk, and that in many ways, the show is a product of its time.
#the bright sessions#harry potter#jk rowling#transphobia#I know there's PLENTY to say about the bigotry in the actual books and I think there's a lot of merit to those criticisms#and I'll own to choosing not to see some of that stuff before all this went down bc the books were meaningful to me#(this is not HP specific - another beloved childhood book series that was EVEN more formative to me growing up)#(is also something I've grappled with in recent years bc I think the author is actually probably wildly misogynistic)#(even though he's never behaved badly (far as I know) in his public life - there's stuff in the text)#BUT ANYWAY#it can be so hard to remember that we didn't have ANY inkling of her bigotry in this regard until 2018#all of the original run of TBS was written before that#and I'll admit I gave jk the benefit of the doubt in 2018 re: her liking that tweet! I wanted to give her a chance to learn and grow#and she did....not do that#but TAMA was written in that little grace period#and then a few references in TCT were taken out during recording bc june of 2020 was when she really started to go mask off#and so we were making changes in real time#we didn't know what to do about quidditch#bc we were like 'this is a sport that people play in college and it's just called that?'#'and it's already canon that caleb plays?'#and it wasn't called quadball yet#anyway not trying to make excuses!#just know that none of those references were put in with any malice#and I guess I *could* go back and rerecord all those lines and replace them#but I know enough about my original audio engineering to know that it woudl be VERY hard to make it sound natural#and idk I do think there's something to be said for not covering up errors in old work#I'm not going to try to pretend HP wasn't important to me#EDIT: I've turned off reblogs for this post#also this is not me trying to tell other people how to approach their own HP fandom#fanworks especially - there's no benefiting jo in that - and I think it's totally legit for ppl to want to take HP as their own!

b’elanna vs her mother at similar ages, plus some sketches!
#my art#star trek voyager#my very first deanna…. my original obsession. if i ever read as much about betazoids as i do klingons we’re all in grave danger#also wrt the first image b'elanna is. 12 years old and as such is about to go emo mode but not quite yet. the girly girl thing is a front#sometime in winter she'll chop her hair off without permission#what do we think? human girl look to fit into the image her father has while he's still around or after to try and get him back?#miral is also a little bookish like b'elanna but on different subjects.... likes to keep to herself naturally but is also loudmouthed and#got told she shared her opinion too often a lot in university. didn't stop her though she speaks up when she thinks (knows) she's right#what did she study? don't ask me my answer changes with the weather#botany....linguistics.....military strategy.....chemistry....... uhmmmm religious studies. or even better the klingon system doesn't have#starfleet equivalents and she spent ages 15-22 doing apprenticeships for a certain (or multiple) disciplines#anyway.#kessik 2352 b'elanna has trouble sitting still for photos until she gets a little older so all the pics from before 7 are of her father#physically holding her so that she won't wander OR off guard shots or super blurry. theres more videos of that time than anything

i dont think ill ever recover from the pure tragedy that is Touya Todorokis story/life. Genuinely the ending did mental damage to me
#arson yaps#touya todoroki#todoroki touya#Literally what the fuck was that ending for him#I find all the villains endings to be very unsatisfying but touya was my favorite from the beginning#dabi was just an interesting guy with a very cool character design and then we got his backstory and it was just. Interesting!#hes still a huge fave and i just. Brother euw about the ending#Its hard tp put into words exactly what i hate so much about it but Endeavor not facing real consequences for his actions#And how it all fell into place. We dont even know if touya is alive by the official ending. hes just in some tank basically stuck#its sad. its depressing and its not a fit ending for the story and what i thought the meaning was#none of the villains got an ending that made sense for them#nothing really changed. we didn’t seem to learn anything#its a fantasy it really wouldn’t have been so difficult to show at least some of the villains getting a sort of redemption#i think theres just lots of lost potential in the canon ending#shout out to fanfic though. in my heart all the villains are alive and got that damn therapy and its all happy#(with y’know the product of their goals and the heroes its not perfect bc nothing is yaadada)#mha#mha dabi#dabi#and FUCK ENDEAVOR

y'know what we don't talk about enough? Hazel died. We talk about how she grew up in the 30's and 40's and we talk about how out of place she feels in the modern world, but! She died! She was dead! She has spent more time dead than alive, and not by a close margin!
How does that effect a person??? We got some of it in the flashbacks, but once those caught up with her present timeline and she shared them, they just kind of... disappeared. And she was a regular girl with some weird past experiences. That's one way of doing it, sure!
I think it would have been a lot cooler if she was just a touch creepier. If she felt a little bit Wrong. Yeah, in general she's more approachable than her brother, she's more sociable and less closed off, but. If you actually spend any time with her, it can be difficult to tell which child of the underworld is actually more unsettling.
Hazel is bright of personality and has a dazzling smile, but sometimes she'll just... shut down. She'll go completely blank for like half an hour and nobody knows what to do with it. Sometimes she forgets she's alive. Sometimes she'll spout the grimmest shit you've ever heard like it's nothing, she won't even notice it's weird until the room goes quiet. She spent decades in Asphodel, which is designed to make people forget about themselves and wander around for eternity, only she didn't have the luxury of forgetting! Wild! After she comes back to life, sometimes she forgets that she's allowed to Do Stuff now. She can spend so long sitting and staring at nothing. Sometimes she'll start crying on cloudless days because it hits her again that she can actually feel the warmth of the sun on her skin and she can hear birdsong. Every little mundane experience is a blessing and she will make you remember that in the most foreboding way possible.
#hazel levesque#hoo#mj talks#like. i am fascinated with characters who die and come back different and it JUST hit me that there was so much potential for hazel there#the idea of how death lingers was not explored At All in heroes of olympus#of course there's the obvious part in that there were what. 3 named character deaths total? 4 if you count leo#which i very much don't because it didn't stick! there were no consequences to this gigantic war!#the first series did well with that because we had plenty of named characters who died#even though some of them were introduced only to die like six chapters later. we still knew them on some level#and more importantly percy knew them. he felt their loss in a way that made consequences seem real#heroes of olympus didn't have any of that. hazel could have been a great way to talk about it a little more!#also i just love characters who have obviously gone through death. that has to change a person! tell me how it changed you!#anyway. i think i'll make hazel creepier from now on in my writing#she deserves it <3#nico is creepy in an obvious way. he's got power over death and that clings to him like a second skin. he can't hide it#and he's learned that he doesn't have to. there is power in being othered#hazel seems lovely when you first meet her! none of the death power all of the glitter and gold and riches#and then she'll look you dead in the eye and say 'you really don't know how lucky you are to be able to breathe until you can't anymore'#and move on like it's nothing! what!#underworld siblings

MDZS Disco Elysium AU part 2 - Psyche Skills
Part 1 - Part 3
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#disco elysium#MDZS disco elysium au#jiang cheng#jiang yanli#yu ziyuan#While it's more in vogue to draw a character's skill roster tailored to them -#One of the more subtle details I love in DE is how some of the skill portraits parallel character portraits of people hbd associates with.#Theres somethine rather poetic to be said about how other people shape out thoughts and sometimes act as a 'voice' in our head.#How we are in part a collection of impressions other people left behind on us.#I am a huge Skillhead (Those are my friends! My party members! They love me! They have their own agendas and alliances!)#so of course a healthy portion of this AU is dedicated to them <3#the Int skills go basically unchanged from DE. Psy as well (with changes to a few quirks in voice).#Fys skills though...well...wwx is in a different body! Those voices belong to Someone Else.#Esp electrochem (MXY in this AU also partied to near death. WWX is withdrawing and craving substances he's never even heard of before)#While I personally don't fully subscribe to Volition Jean I *do* see Volition Jiang Cheng. The voice of your Not Brother keeping you afloat#All three of these parallels make me unbelievably sad. They are also both purple. Art is like that sometimes.#Empathy Jiang Yanli...oh man do I have a lot of thoughts about her. Disco fans Who Know....you can probably see what I'm cooking.#Authority is a really interesting skill in DE because *yes* its about power and intimidation - but it's also about finesse and respect#Titus Hardie and YZY both abuse *and* finesse how they establish their authority - in a way that leaves quite an impression.#2 more mdzs disco posts that I *need* to create and then I'm off to working on raffles <3

I don’t know about you guys, but I absolutely love the idea of Bowser being the most fearsome creature in the entire galaxy to the point where he can very easily scare anyone into giving him what he wants because he is just so scary and terrifying.
And yet, when it comes to Luigi, a shy and cowardly little plumber, it is actually Bowser who is the more nervous one.
#luigi#bowser#luigi nintendo#bowser nintendo#bowuigi#bowser x luigi#super mario#super mario bros#mario au#I love the idea of Bowser acting like an bumbling idiot around Luigi because he has such a obvious crush on the green boy#Like Bowser barges into the Mushroom Kingdom acting all tough and macho but immediately turns into a fluster mess when he sees Luigi#And then you have Luigi who is just so terrified of Bowser that he doesn’t even realize that Bowser has a crush on him#But once Luigi does finally have feelings for Bowser he’s afraid to tell him how he feels because he’s really shy and nervous#Even though all he has to do is take one look at Bowser to know that the poor Koopa has feelings for him#Bowser’s feelings for Luigi become obvious to literally everyone except for Luigi#But both of them are nervous to make the first move#I do want to note that Luigi is still the same shy and cowardly boy we all know and love#the only change to all of this is that Bowser’s nervousness and shyness goes from 0 to 1000 whenever he’s with Luigi#They are both shy and flustered idiots when they’re with each other and I find that really adorable#bowuigi top Luigi au

wasnt planning on posting this since kaerion is an unfinished character BUT i like the movement in these doodles so i am going to
here is how i would imagine a meeting between meredil and one of his older siblings, kaerion, would go. kind of a venomous mer, and the most extremist out of all of meredil's siblings. he has some very choice words about mere no longer affiliating himself with the dominion.
meredil doesnt go out of his way to contact his siblings out of fear that something like this would happen (and even though kaerion happens to be an edge case and probably the worst of his siblings to encounter randomly, meredil is still somewhat considered a hulkynd. he was an abnormal child growing up, with 8 years of his childhood spent nonverbal, and strongly refusing to adhere himself to established rules).
i can imagine they actually probably got along well during their adolescence, and though they were only a few years apart, mere very much looked up to kaerion. the venom and rivalry started when they joined the thalmor's cause, and drifted apart, though most of the competitiveness was on kaerion's part. a mixture of hearsay, familial gossip and a steady drip feed of thalmori propaganda regarding mental and physical disabilities warped his perception of meredil as the years passed, and completely shattered any respect left for him when he eventually heard meredil had abandoned his position in skyrim.
meredil misses the time they spent as children but recognizes that kaerion does not feel the same way towards him any more
#tes#the elder scrolls#oc:meredil#oc:kaerion#rorys art#skyrim#altmer#thalmor#ableism#something to establish here is that even if kaerion is a POS he is not transphobic and refers to meredil properly#the circumstance is definitely funny in which they meet though. mere has been living off the grid and couriers cant find him because of#the fact he changed his name and none of his family know#so kaerion meeting him randomly out in the open and RECOGNIZING him is such a fucking funny thing#definitely a lot of internalized self hatred with this guy though#he has the potential to be a normal guy but we will just have to see
