See I don't want to come off weirdly to any prospective or current RP partners by admitting to ship biases with my BG3 ladies like I'm possibly forcing ships or something. Because I am not at all intending to force ships and view the events of my BG3 playthroughs like romances as entirely separate from things that happen in RPs.
But also I just have to ramble at least a little about why I ship Lae'zel and Raven and it's just.
Two women, raised in violent and harsh societies, both taught they had to rely on themselves, had to be strong, couldn't afford to be vulnerable. One who was taught anyone around her could stab her in the back at a moment's notice, the other whom was raised to be a soldier from birth. Both in societies forged by a powerful woman who uses those below them for their own ends.
Two women like that who then come together and come to trust each other, learn they can be vulnerable with one another, that they can keep each other safe, rely on each other in ways they never thought they could ever rely on someone for.
It being a dramatic bard and a grumpy soldier is the cherry on top.
It'd absolutely be the slowest burn to ever grace Faerun, and yet the prospect just sounds so good.
(Also will mention this similarly applies to Minthara as oh god two women from the same horrid society possibly finding in each other trust and safety they've never had before... very good stuff.)
#how do i tag this. um.#...sneakily slides into wishlist-#&& wishlist / rose’s hopes#&& c. raven / lunar songstress#as said again i dont wanna make it seem like im forcing ships or something because im not and though im open to speedrunning ships-#ultimately it depends on the lae'zel portrayal how raven ends up reacting and whether something develops + the lae'zel writer-#has to obv be open to it#but. if a lae'zel rper desires this sort of relationship with raven. then. i probably wont say no!#same applies to minthara rpers obv as well

it's so wild to look at s1!buck compared to s7!buck
#obvs he went from fuckboy to loveboy (rather quick but thats what happens when he realises he wants something bad enough)#which can be paralleled to his bisexual speedrun in 7x04 and 7x05 and also a bit of 7x06. but i'm actually#talking about how he went from the big strong selfless hero protector archetype for abby (but also as a firefighter identity) in s1#to s7 where he's being taken care of in his relationship with tommy and being prioritized by his partner (who also happens#to be a firefighter) which is new and wonderful but there's also no imbalance of care; tommy is open and honest about how he#feels and buck meets him with open honesty in return - they meet in the middle! - it's just so cathartic for buck's storyline to see#how much he opens himself up to love in s1 and yearns to be wanted as much in return but it doesn't happen (and continues not to)#but with tommy he finally has someone who wants him just as much in return- and moreover we see buck being himself (evan!)#with tommy which is so freeing that he doesn't have to put on the buck persona: he can be goofy and dumb and vulnerable + needy#and tommy wants all of it all of him. i know we haven't seen much of their relationship so far and obvs they're still in the#honeymoon phase - which is why i'm so excited for the more settled phase of their rship (we saw a bit of it in the finale)#to see continued proof of them meeting in the middle. and also more instances of tommy caring for buck and wanting all of buck#but yeh just gimme more of buck being comfortably himself and all that means bc he feels seen and safe and wanted by tommy#.txt#parallels#evan buckley

i think sacred music in the kryn dynasty would be very cyclical and repetitive in form to symbolize the idea that life is a continuous thing (at least those who are consecuted right right) and is a cycle across lifetimes and yeah
#court rambambles#cr#critical role#kryn dynasty#finishing up my religions class and i've used the last two topics to research non-western music because hi music major western music gets#super fucking boring. and i've been having a Blast listening to classical indian music. this shit slaps. i fucking LOVE music with drones.#but since this is a religions class obvs im researching in in the context of religion so I'm doing music in hinduism and this was something#brought up in like 2 sentences not even in a paper im using a a ref and it reminded me a lot of this and idk yknow. very neat.#ive been thinking a lot about fantasy music as well. okay like using western music and medieval western European music as inspo is fine and#dandy.#but like goodness guys there are so many other amazing cultures and styles and genres of music and subdivisions within cultures and i just.#im so amazed by them. give me that microtonal music give me these awesome instruments give me these great scales and rhythms and just. yes#if anyone comes from some non western European cultures and has neat traditional/folk/classical/whatever music and they want to share it my#dms and ask boxes are/should be open and stuff. please i just like learning about music across the world#*non western-european bc yknow eastern europe has unique things too#FOLLOW ME FOR MORE POSTS LIKE THIS WHERE I RAMBLE ABOUT MUSIC AND MY INTERESTS. SOMETIMES I EVEN POST ART AND TALK ABOUT MY OCS WHOAAAA#please talk to me about music i just really like music. it's not like im majoring in it at all. is it a smart idea in this economy with adh#wellll yknow

While researching Mando'a for a fic, I found out that Mandalorians call droids 'Beskar'ad' and it's just thE CUTEST THING EVER!
In Mando'a, Beskar means iron and ad means son/daughter... so droids are literally iron sons/daughters and I just:
It's sO sweet, especially when you consider how much value Mandalorian culture places on children. The fact they think of droids as iron sons or daughters is so precious!
Silly [affectionate] warrior culture that I adore :')
Also, I would do anything to witness Din Djarin's reaction to learning that information. His protectiveness towards children and hatred of droids would be the two wolves fighting inside him!!
but that won't happen because a show literally called The Mandalorian seems determined to ignore thEIR LANGUAGE
#din djarin#the mandalorian#mandalorians#mandoa#mandalorian culture#i love mandalorians sO much!!!!!#everyone has that one aspect of star wars that makes their brains go brrrrr and tickles them in the right way and obv mine is mandos#they're so cool and everyone thinks they're terrifying but they're actually kind of lame [affectionate]#also with how prominent mandoa is in fics i forget we have not heard a single word of it uttered in the show lol#i know there was a bit in tbobf but#favroni sleep with one eye open!!! i want to hear din speak mandoa#jk ofc for legal reasons :)))) LET DIN DJARIN CALL GROGU AD'IKA ON THE BIG SCREEN COWARDS!!!!#din thoughts

okok my brain not braining rn but.... smth smth stan starting to figures tbings out when SHERMIE calls asking ford to watch the kiddos like
stan: hello? if this is the irs you can talk to me in person!
shermie: ford blah blah blah kids blah summer blah blah
stan: (why tf is my brother calling this ford guy????? and familiar with him?????) uhhhhh...
OH HEY i hadn't even read this ask when I wrote my response to that other one so I guess we're just on the same brainwave with "Shermie is the one to ask Stan to take care of the kids"
Stan is so confused because like. Shermie is his brother. He knows Shermie is his older brother. Everytime someone mentions Stan's brother they're obviously talking abut Shermie. Right? So why is Shermie calling up Stanford (how does Shermie know Stanford exists? So why does his brother Shermie somehow know who Stanford is? Does he know Stanley stole this random dude's identity? Except, no, Shermie thinks Stanford is his brother, which is super weird. And Stan is so absolutely baffled about this whole thing that he finds himself agreeing to Shermie's request before he can think through "taking care of a couple of kids for an entire summer"
#i should make an ask tag#stan (singular) au#ykw im just gonna clarify this one in writing now#bc im confusing myself#the family thinks stanley is dead or disappeared entirely#bc nobody has heard from him in smth like 40 years#they think ford has gone a little kooky in his shack in the woods#because he hasn't talked to any of them in 30 years#and for a hot minute any time any of them opened a call with 'hey stanford' he would just yell something about 'them' being after them and#then hang up abruptly#(this is not helped by the fact that Stanford had 'them' (demons) after him)#(and stanley-pretending-to-be-stanford had 'them' (the cops+random gangs he antagonized as stanley) after him)#so there's a bit of a crossover in actually-stanford going a bit insane and ghosting everybody#and stanley-as-stanford trying to cut out everyone from That Stanford Guy's life and ignoring anyone who seems to know who he (stanford) is#so the family eventually gave up tryign to contact stanford for like 20ish years#then obv the parents died#so its just shermie after like 20 years like 'okay fuck this im sending my grandkids to drag my idiot brother out of his cave'#surprise. wrong brother!#i'm retroactively making this scenario the canon-to-the-au one#stan doesn't have the twins literally just show up on his doorstep at the start of the summer lmao

@doodle-girl psst.
so remember a few months back when I was talking about a doai hadestown au? Well I rewatched a slime tutorial of it a week ago and became obsessed with it again so here are the idiots!
tbh this all stemmed from me thinking about how similar orpheus and Alex are and me wanting to make an au out of this, but I couldn't think of who eurydice would be, then I made it mort bc I thought it would be funny but then I realized that it actually kinda fit, especially with the (theoretical) relationship these two have where Alex could've saved mort but it was out of their control or smth like that. so yeah
#also clyde is hermes#obv lankmann would be hades#I was thinking maybe winfrey would be persephone bc that would be funny but idk#ig if anyone has any ideas im open#ALSO WATCH HADESTOWN OMG#dreams of an insomniac#doai sitcom au#alex williams doai#mortimer doai#mortimer gray doai#doai hadestown au#<-forgot to tag that lmao

i'm trying to watch a trans guy critique some video game trans rep bc i'm interested in hearing more trans ppl talk about it. but he's very. i'm paraphrasing here but "why would anyone ever in a million years want their rpg character to have top surgery scars. isnt that a constant reminder to you and everyone around you about how you were born" and "you don't work on transitioning. you just need hormone treatment and possibly some--"
#i get that some trans men need to fight themselves and everyone around them to feel ''man enough'' in like a semi toxic masculinity way#but its kinda tiring to hear ngl. im sorry you feel that way and i know not having been born cis sucks and i understand your emotions but d#you have to make them my problem. like idk i feel like my transition DID take work and#personally for me my top surgery scars are a positive reminder of how far ive gotten#when i pay them any attention. which is not very often#man im just existing not analyzing every part of my body at all times#yknow. some ppl sound like they watched a bit too much of a certain youtuber who was rancid about other trans men and talked about stuff li#like how theres a mens and womens way to flip your middle finger and stuff.#sight thats so besides the point#anyways i am open to hearing opinions that differ from mine and i want to do that but some people you just dont vibe with#leevi talks#obvs no hate to this creator btw. he speaks about stuff very well but some little word choices here and there rub me the wrong way#and he has good points so far i am intrigued of what he has to say i just needed a break to bitch so i can continue#edit: no this video isnt even good. like i dont agree with bioware but he sounds like hes just on purpose misunderstanding everything#so he has more stuff to get mad about for his video#is it ragebait

"Su She, you use this well-established not-uncommon spiritual tool, and he ALSO uses this well-established not-uncommon spiritual tool, so obviously you PLAGIARIZED."
WWX was one of those people who accused The Hunger Games novels of ripping off Battle Royale, wasn't he.
#storytime: I used to work at a chocolate shop in the mall and a rival candy store used to come in with a kiosk just during Christmas#so my shop opened a kiosk also and the rival candy company served us a Cease & Desist because our awning also had stripes#they were not the same color scheme or style but they were STRIPES and only Rival Candy Company has ever used STRIPES before obvs!#anyway that's what all the hate at Su She for being off-brand LWJ makes me think of#of COURSE he's using guqin! he probably trained in it at Cloud Recesses! why would he abandon all that expertise?#like is he also mad that Mianmian still uses a sword even though she learned to use her sword with the Jin? please.#masala necromancy wizard hour

Betty’s Wish (1/?) (Patreon)
It’s definitely weird that Betty, with all her Magical abilities, never met a Wishmaster, right? I think so
[First | Prev | Next]
#My art#Comic#Adventure Time#Prismo#Betty Grof#Oh this is much bigger than I'm used to lol - feel free to open in a new tab#My big project! Here it is! :D Or at least the first piece of it lol#I worked on quite a lot of it through Requestober - or at least the digital cleans lol#If you'll recall my ''This has gotten way out of hand'' posts about Winter and the like - yeah it was actually this lol#And that was just the roughs! This became my warmup project for the remainder of RQTR 2023 lol#It definitely worked! All the way around! I got lots of panels done in short order and got my warmups in for the day#These are mostly drawn right on top of my original sketches - other than adding Betty's kerchief#I would've gone over her hair to make her more on-model but hrnnghhh hair fun to drawww#This is my happy medium compromise lol#Prismo was also a treat to work on ♪ He's vectors as you can probably tell :)#And I still looooove working with vectors ahhhhhh <3 <3 They're so fun to manipulate and move around#I can change his expressions so quickly! Very enjoyable to work with :D#Hehe ♪ He's also not confined to the panels the same way Betty is :)#Anyhow! I have Several more of these planned but for now I'm just happy I finally have this one :D#For reference this is set before the end of Adventure Time - obvs since Betty looks like this - but also kinda not lol#Y'know how it is with time and paradoxes and stuff :)#Even Prismo knows ♪ He probably knows best of all actually hehehe

something something foils moving in opposite directions Goku's always happy to seek and fight stronger opponents because he spent most of his life being the strongest guy in the room and Vegeta wants to be the strongest/is always exhausted to find stronger opponents because he spent most of his life having to navigate his survival around the whims of the strongest guy in the universe room and so Goku has a foundation of safety and stability and so spends his time craving challenge and adventure and Vegeta has a foundation of challenge and adventure and spends his time craving safety and stability and the overlaid section of their venn diagram is that the only way they know how acquire and maintain those things is through battle
#thank you this has been the laziest media analysis post of my career#dbtag#media analysis#something something a game to goku is a threat to vegeta etc#there's a pinned thought here about how Vegeta also didn't learn about the dragon balls until he was ?? 30?? and so all loss is permanent#and goku has been familiar since he was ~12 and hasn't faced a permanent consequence since he was 10 years old and even then he got closure#sometimes I think about how Vegeta saw Trunks die and how Krillin was mad at him for reacting since they could fix it with the dragon balls#but Vegeta has very limited experience with the dragon so to him in that moment that was permanent and Trunks was Dead. Forever.#And we talked before in a 2am post about Vegeta having never experienced grief born of love and I stand by it because his feelings then wer#still very new and very odd and not something he'd accepted until that moment so it was raw power but not as powerful as it could've been#all this to say in my heart of hearts I think Vegeta deserves to retire at the end of super (if super continues) -- not as a warrior#but as an infantryman. he's a prince and now he's got his domain and his family and his planet to look after and I think he deserves#to go home and stay home and help piccolo bully gohan into training more often when goku inevitably leaves to hop the multiverse#geets wanted to take a sabbatical when Bulla was born but didn't get the chance because Freeza coming back freaked him out too much#but whether freeza gets a redemption arc or gets defeated -- Granolah's arc seemed to shift his perspective on being the strongest#and I just grips fist I just think it would be a really nice full circle for Vegeta to inherit his throne in a way he never expected and#finally get his kingdom to look after and protect in the way that he was looking forward to being king of his own planet all those years ag#Goku's got Broly and Jiren and Hit and all the others to keep him busy and happy now -- and if Freeza gets a redemption arc he'll probably#continue playing slap-ass with Goku for the rest of his life -- and Vegeta's got Gohan and Piccolo and Goten and Trunks#I just think them getting a nice bittersweet 'This is where we part ways' would be really nice for both of them because !!#They couldn't have done this without each other. They couldn't have known this kind of life was possible without each other.#So they swap lots and live happier than they ever imagined they could be#especially since Vegeta has proved to himself that he can close any gap Goku creates in progress that's not a concern anymore#And obvs the door's always open!! There's no point closing it Vegeta's tried the locks they don't work on Goku#anyway here's me putting the whole essay in the tags again#this isn't an essay as much as it is stream of consciousness tag blogging#anyway i'm too lazy to write fic or draw comics so we get ramblings instead

bisexual men who I want to sink my teeth into and shake around like a chewtoy
#em is yelling#this is honestly applicable to a bunch of guys but obv i am still losing my mind over yesterday. help#it's so bizarre though like. i don't really feel as many weird attachment things with him? he just. puts me so at ease idk idk#like i've been thinking about him constantly since he dropped me off yesterday but i don't feel as much of an urgent need#to have an immediate response to a message i sent#or constant validation he really likes me#i mean the fact that we first got together when i was 16 and we've both tried to get together like every year since is just like.#a sigh of relief?#this person has been through so much and knows that i have too and is just so open and understanding and kind in such subtle ways#and it's just. a lovely experience to get to know him and feel him in small pockets of time even if that's all we get. yknow?
