Finally I can post the comic for Adventurer!Zenos that has taken hold of my brain for the past week.
AKA a man who is currently running off the fumes of the literal souls of the damned being very desperate to be out of the void he was stuck in (and for the first time actually being able to just enjoy something mundane), only to get absolutely overwhelmed but all the stimuli he had just... ignored until now.
#ffxiv#concept#sketch#comic#zenos yae galvus#adventurer!zenos#meteor survivor#I will admit I find a lot of enjoyment writing antagonists that show a capacity for change#its a part of the reason psaro and hendrick are some of my favorite dragon quest characters LOL#the fact alisaie lives in this man's head rent free pushed me to do this#so i wanted to do a bit of a character study exercise trying to work on this man's motivations#I am so sorry I have so much brainrot about this man#if any of you saw Tsukiko standing outside the forum for like 6+ hours over several days#it was because I was dying inside trying to draw the overlook of the ocean and the statue of thaliak#perfectionism kicks my ass when it comes to backgrounds lmfao

i would actually love to hear your thoughts on when layton would emote the ways you've drawn him! if you want! no pressure if not!
OH B OY HERE WE GO!!!!! again take everything with a grain of salt bc i Forgor bits of the series
BLANKET SPOILER FOR UNWOUND FUTURE/MIRACLE MASK MAYBE??/AZRAN LEGACY
(for reference we are talking abt this post)
SURPRISE: As we know in the PL series, it's very very hard to catch the professor off-guard in any way. Most of the things you would think would surprise him, he's already known for a long time and was just keeping quiet about it so that he could use that information at the right time.
With that being said, the times where he does seem to get somewhat surprised (or taken aback. he's so goddamn emotionally constipated) seem to be when the shocker in question has personal relation to him. Though in the series proper, none of the shocking personal factoids are ever presented in a way to make him jump. So theoretically, if any twists like Claire or Descole's reveal were presented much more aggressively, he might emote like how I've drawn him (though I kinda doubt it). Or just jumpscare him lmao
SADNESS: Obviously we know that Layton can feel sadness and cry, though even at the end of Unwound Future it's clear that he's still holding back with his crying. I'd wager that it's because he's out in public and around an impressionable individual (Luke) that he's not letting himself fully express his grief. After all, a true gentleman never makes a scene in public.
I'd say, if he were to cry like the way I've drawn him (that is, bawling his eyes out), it'd probably be at the end of UF when Luke leaves for America, and he'd have to be alone. And I mean completely alone. He'd be very careful about having anyone even remotely near him before he breaks down sobbing; he'd wait for Luke to go home, and wait a while to make sure that he hears no other footsteps around who could potentially walk in on him, before crying. And even then, he'd still repress it - trying to choke back sobs to make sure he isn't heard, pulling the brim of his hat over his eyes and covering his eyes with his hand, the works. Because sadness/crying is weakness to him, and a true gentleman can never show weakness.
ANGER: Frankly, I feel like this is one of the emotions I've drawn that I actually could see him showing in the series proper. We've seen him in Unwound Future just barely holding back his anger at Clive when he endangered Flora/started wrecking havoc on London (obviously still restrained- yadda yadda yadda "true gentleman" blah blah blah).
To get him to unrestrain it, I'd say you would have to put a lot of people he cares about (particularly his wards - Luke and Flora would likely be excellent choices) in direct danger, as well as taunt him to a personal degree enough times. Because even the Professor has limits to how much mental strain he can take, and all limits can be broken. It's just a matter of pushing the right (or wrong!) buttons on him.
FEAR: This one's tough I think. As an adult who's seen a lot (including his own death), it's pretty hard to find something that would really scare him to that degree. Throughout the series the most he seems to show in terms of fear is either: a) surprise that he quickly recovers from, or b) the end of Unwound Future when he realizes that Claire can't stay with him.
I say that theoretically (and REALLY emphasize on the "theoretically"), you might be able to get him to emote the way I've drawn him... if you subject him to anything akin to his recently unrepressed memories of his childhood, and he's rendered helpless to do anything to help but watch. But like I said, only theoretically. I'd wager that he'd probably just be angry too.
LAUGHTER: ...I honestly have no good clue to how or when he'd emote like this. For him to laugh so heartily, he'd have to be in a state of extreme emotional vulnerability, which isn't often.
I'd say it'd be at a time where he's feeling very relieved, or elated (and they'd both have to be situations that connect to him personally too; outside events won't phase him). How he'd laugh to such an extent I'm not actually sure, BUT I could paint a bit of a scenario: It's the end of UF, but Claire could actually stay without dying, and she makes a sort of lighthearted joke in light of the events. Would he laugh wholeheartedly? I dunno. But judging on what we've seen of him, it's a maybe.
It's a shame we never get to see him emote so colourfully in the hexalogy proper, but as I've stated before in another long-winded half-legible ramble character analysis, he's SEVERELY repressing his emotions due to Claire's last words/"gentleman" values/positive reinforcements from his peers and environments for successfully hiding his emotions. Poor guy.
#mak talks smack#mak answers#professor layton#hershel layton#character analysis#i guess.?#mostly just me yapping eternally while trying to make sure i'm actually understood#i was waiting until i had enough mental capacity to type this on my laptop so sorry for the wait anon#but this is the gist of what i think#ALSO I FEEL THE NEED TO ADD#I DO NOT HATE CLAIRE IN ANY WAY AT ALL!!!#she's just made some very unfortunate wording choices which have exacerbated his repression issues further :(#but like i said in the art post the laughing one i put in bc i felt bad. lmao#most of the emotions i've drawn were just fun exercises for me#realistically would he show half of them? probably not#but oh well#still it's fun to draw him feeling extremes#especially when his face is just :-) or :-|#limitations are the key to progress!!

always kind of strange and uncomfortable when someone admits "yeah i basically fried my attention span on Phone so i can't do anything that requires patience now". the kind of thing where i want to say a million things in response but i tend to say nothing at all
#indexed post#The main threads are like#I think attention and patience are more complicated than people expect and it kind of needs to be seen systemically#But also it's something you just have to exercise#And also patience-requiring things can be fun sometimes. And you can mix patience things with quick reward if you want.#And I dont like to be judgmental or like 'YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING RIGHT NOW' i think shame keeps ppl in this position#but its like If U think its a problem There Is Help#I guess i'd say something like 'does this bother you?' bc people seem bothered but resigned#i think i also feel like im in a weird place with it because my attention capacities are all over the place#On account of being split into like 15 pieces#But I sure can do boring tasks sometimes.

mundane thing but i love that mysterious lotus casebook has details like qiao wanmian having asthma attacks and li xiangyi needing to watch out for peanut allergies. jianghu representation for those of us bitches who have to deal with common but still deeply annoying health conditions
#wanmian's asthma makes me happy in particular?? like i used to have peanut allergies too but#i outgrew that. the asthma has stayed with me my whole life tho and it fucks up my exercising capacity#even tho it's gotten a lot better#so seeing someone like that in a wuxia drama where characters watch out for potential triggers for her#and also accomodate her if she needs breaks? loving this energy i adore this show#mysterious lotus casebook#qiao wanmian#li xiangyi#ashton originals

lmaooooo i am 100% just using my hinge account to be vain at this point
got a like and instead of matching with the guy i’m just sat here staring at the photo he liked like “damn, i’m hot as fuck” 😂😂😂
so sorry to anyone looking to get with me, i’m pulling a narcissus and falling in love with myself instead. catch me drowning in a scenic pool in the woods someday
#ramble on exie#lowkey inspo to get back into better shape#like jesus looking back at some of these photos and realizing there’s a 40lb difference?!#not unhappy with my weight- i know most of it is muscle#but like. there is room for improvement. i just wish i had the self discipline and motivation to workout#i have never ever gotten any endorphin high from exercise. it’s all miserable and i hate it#so it’s hard to feel motivated to workout when i feel like shit no matter what#anyways. pretty sure dating isn’t for me. at least for now#but also i am lowkey content with the idea of being single forever?#idk. its been 4 and a half months since i became single again#and i am loving single life. not really interested in shackling myself to someone in any capacity#other people are tedious. exhausting. maintaining relationships is more effort than i’m willing to give

Is it not enough that my Russian teacher asks me every week what I did for my Russian since the last lesson - a perfectly valid question, that actually forces me to read/watch something and make sure I understand it well enough to sum it up for her? Does she now also have to ask me how my Polish is going, just because I was foolish enough to mention that I'm trying to learn that, too?
#aoife vs languages#I have no done some of the most basic vocabulary exercises so I can tell her I did something#I don't have the mental capacity for two languages right now

Now that I know the wonders/horrors of incline reverse smith machine lunges I will never again use another exercise that even touches the glutes
#really want to do sldl for hamstrings but that will hit the glutes too much for me to physically be able to do the lunges#and if i do lunges then my glutes will definitely be the limiting factor in sldl#i guess ill just have to build up work capacity enough in my glutes to do sldl and still have enough in the tank for lunges after#my only other exercise that hits the hamstrings are leg curls and the machine at my gym is absolute dogwater#ill be maxing out the machine within a couple months and still barely get stimulus out of it#so i really want sldl in the program#unless someone has recs for hamstring isolation work other than leg curls

what are your thoughts about krycek's kill in sleepless?
i think i made some kind of small post about this like a month ago but i'm going to get more into it now that you've sent me an ask about it specifically. unleashing the beast.
ok so i don't know if this is like. #controversial or whatever but i don't actually think he was faking his reaction to killing augustus cole! i do think that was baby's first murder.
in the LSG media x-files podcast, one of the hosts points out that, at the end of sleepless, krycek kind of has no choice but to kill cole. cole wants to die, and was going to die either way (he was clearly planning to jump off the ledge of the vehicle yard building before being confronted by mulder)--but he knows that mulder isn't going to do it, so he puts it on krycek by manipulating him into seeing the gun where the bible was. there's obviously no way for krycek to fake that, it's external. so if he thinks that his partner is about to get shot, what does he do? if he wasn't a spy, he'd do what he's supposed to do according to what they teach you at the FBI, which is to shoot cole (the hostile suspect) before he can shoot mulder (the LEO). he is a spy, but he still has to do what he's supposed to do, because if he doesn't, it'll blow his cover.
the conversation between krycek and the cigarette-smoking man in ascension makes it pretty obvious that krycek is like. at this point, basically an errand boy. a foot soldier AT MOST. the cigarette-smoking man tells krycek, among other things, that he "has no rights, only orders to be carried out," and that if he has problems with that, they'll "make other arrangements," which is like. very obviously a threat that krycek seems disquieted by, placing him in what is probably a relatively low position in the syndicate's hierarchy. he's a mole, someone who watches and passes along information--not the kind of operative that assassinates people.
we get basically nothing on krycek in terms of backstory/what he was doing before being introduced into the story (which in almost all cases i think is a plus) but to be honest i don't think there would have been any reason for him to have killed anybody before cole. krycek mentions in ascension that the cigarette-smoking man "had" him do something--we infer that this is related to the death of duane barry at the least, if not also what happened to the tram operator at skyland mountain--so we know that he wasn't doing that of his own accord, he was receiving orders. we see him doing the same thing in anasazi (before the cigarette-smoking man decides he's a loose end that needs to be tied), except now he seems to be being specifically ordered to carry out hits; likely because somebody, somewhere, saw what he did in ascension and decided that he could handle it. i don't believe that that was always his job, and i definitely don't think that it was anywhere NEAR his job during the period of time he was assigned to be mulder's partner. the confrontation the end of sleepless puts him in the position to kill someone when he wasn't intended to be, and he does it, and after they realize he can do it, he's put in positions where he has to do it more. if it helps the government cover up the fact that they've been doing fucked up experiments on people, that's an added bonus.
part of this can be attributed to nicholas lea being a good actor, obviously, but i think when it comes to determining this sort of thing, it's physical reactions that tend to sell it. at the end of the scene, right before the cut to mulder finding out his file's been stolen from the car, there's the shot of mulder and krycek leaning over cole's body in the vehicle yard building. it's the most well-lit part of the scene, and there's a long shot focusing on the bible lying at cole's side where he'd dropped it as he fell. it's pretty zoomed in, since the focus is on the book, but both mulder and krycek are partially visible in-shot. mulder, who we know has killed people before, doesn't enjoy it but is familiar with it, is very sober and still; krycek's hand is shaking so hard it's changing the reflections on the face of his wristwatch.
so yeah, i do think augustus cole was the first time he ever killed anyone, and i think his hesitations and reactions were real. frankly i think most of his reactions to things regarding the case were real; he might be part of the alien cover-up conspiracy but i feel like maybe that doesn't prepare you for war veterans that can kill people with their minds. i guess it's the sort of thing where it's like. he COULD have been faking it? "it" being the fear and anxiety and immediate shock of killing a person for the first time. even though i think the emotions that you must be experiencing after you kill someone for the first time, especially if you didn't necessarily want to do it--residual fear, sick adrenaline, some kind of fucked up relief--would be pretty difficult to fake, particularly if you're trying to fool one of the best psychologists in the bureau, i don't doubt that he could have gotten away with faking it if he'd had to. but i just think it's a little more interesting if he didn't
#for all i know he'd been whacking people for years before the cole case but i find that less engaging somehow#i just think it's fascinating to see him go from someone who gags at a corpse in a morgue#to someone who kills without flinching or even asking questions. and this all happens almost fully offscreen over the course of like a year#he has his own character arc his own moral degradation his own downfall we just never see it. bc obviously neither do mulder and scully#and he never seems to take joy in it really but he also has an air of. idk. being desensitized to it#like he's found out how the world works and has lost his capacity to care#'i have of late (but wherefore i know not) lost all my mirth; forgone all custom of exercises;#and indeed it goes so heavily with my disposition; that this goodly frame the earth seems to me a sterile promontory'#unrelated but the lighting in that scene was so good. the heavy shadows give such weight to the atmosphere. very well done

We need to start coming down harder on people who respond to posts with intentionally bad-faith interpretations like "well this doesn’t apply to me specifically so it’s bullshit and actually you’re a bigot for not explicitly addressing literally every single possible scenario in your offhand tumblr post”. It’s exhausting and pointless and I have to imagine people responding with shit like that are wildly unpleasant to be around in real life
#is telling people that they have the capacity to change ableist?#is saying that exercise is beneficial white supremacy?#no. you're just stupid. log off

the scenes where xan swiftly lifts and carries charname when he clearly could not have cast strength on himself beforehand are so funny to me. "it was effortless" no it surely was not
#*bangs my fist on the table* Let Him Be Weak#you think i entered a wizard romance expecting to him to be strong?? huh??? to be able to lift anything other than the moonblade??#when he SAYS he has never worked out and never will and indeed refuses healthy exercise lest it reduce his wizard stats??#i may give him shoulders when i draw him but they are for his charisma score. he is a sheet of tissue paper. he Will blow away in the wind#meanwhile radri has a 500 lb carrying capacity and could simply carry xan anywhere anywhen but refrains solely bc of his dignity#you may ask 'sovo why does your THIEF have a 500 lb carrying capacity' bro for the loot#baldur's gate#xan x radri
