Bill Bailey, known as Axl Rose, pictured with his girlfriend, Gina Siler, in 1982.

Fun fact: Back Off Bitch, the 8th song from the Use Your Illusion 1 album, was partially written about Gina, who moved to Los Angeles with Axl, but eventually kicked him out in 1983, due to his anger issues.

Gina is now a counselor, specializing in personality disorders, mood disorders, and depression. Her small business is located in Tuscan, Arizona. She also has 15 years of training under her belt.

Been thinking a lot about this “the family plays isat” AU and how it might happen

Siffrin would probably refuse for them to play it if he was aware of it (thinking about how they said when learning about the diary in the library that they would hate it if someone read their deepest thoughts) and the rest of the family would also respect that, because it really would be a breach of trust. They’d prefer it if Siffrin talked to them himself, after all.

A situation I could see it happening is if, post-Loop battle, Siffrin’s Craft exhaustion got so severe he gets knocked out for a full week or two, maybe more! And the family would be so worried and desperate to understand what happened so that if the game appeared to them suddenly, they’d be tempted enough to play through it. If only just to figure out how to help Siffrin wake up again

(and probably a mixture of other emotions too, wanting to see the conversations Siffrin had with them that they don’t remember, feeling guilty that they didn’t notice soon enough, terrified that Siffrin is hiding something else. I mean, Siffrin straight up did not mention the Loop battle to them at all, even after they promised to talk! so they’d be worried on what happened there already)

Honestly I think all of them would also be exhausted and on bed rest after the whole quest to defeat the King was over, it took months of constant movement and stress so the whole family would crash hard afterwards. Cuz of that they’d be stuck together on like the infirmary or a private room with strict orders to take it easy, what better time to play the game than that?

Me, episode 1: Oh, a relatable protag! And a relatable female protag, at that. Sweet! That never happens.

Me, a few episodes in: Wait, the protag really is going to be my character? The one I identify with the most? Seriously? It's not going to be a strange, at least somewhat sinister, seemingly hostile male side character? It's gonna be a female character and the protagonist? That's insane, that literally never happens... what's the catch??

Me, more than halfway through the season: ... huh, I guess Maomao really is it. Okay, then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Me to myself, after episodes 22/23:

there's an essay jumbled up in my brain about dunmeshi's beginning and how clever and deceptive it is as a sleight-of-hand trick that distracts the audience from the depth and scope of the worldbuilding and foreshadowing that's being set up the entire time by dangling zany characters and wacky dishes and biology fun facts in front of us, and how that serves to catch invested viewers off guard when those elements come to the forefront, but also how it works against it with other viewers wanting "more" and not seeing it because the plot bait isn't laid out up front

how people getting frustrated with the characters "not taking things seriously" is mirrored and refuted in the confrontation between Laios and Shuro. how the characters' attitudes aren't just a result of shallow low-stakes "comedy rules" where nothing matters, but are an extension of their personalities (Laios's nonstandard expression of emotions being offputting even to people he knows) and the world and social environment (adventurers being desensitized to death and injury because resurrection magic is commonplace). the way the party refers to "saving Falin" instead of "retrieving Falin's corpse," indicating that they still see her with full personhood, and how that phrasing leads to some readers/viewers believing that Falin is alive in the dragon's stomach, conscious of being slowly digested while the party carelessly fucks around "wasting time." how the weird tonal dissonance makes sense in-universe and yet is deliberately challenged more and more the deeper the party goes

all the character building and pieces of lore slowly weaving together the shape of the larger world, laying the groundwork for the major themes that will surface later. so much is right there in the "low-stakes" early episodes if you know what you're looking for (or pass the perception checks).

it can be so satisfying to see new viewers/readers pick up on the clues even in the earliest "simple" episodes, or notice new things and make connections yourself....and it can also be frustrating to see people dismiss oddities and dissonance as shallow or bad writing because they don't expect a "cooking anime" to have depth like that. why try to question and understand and peel back the layers when you don't expect there to be any layers?

why can't laios take things seriously for once?

Soooo, the month is looking a little more busy than I originally planned for, but! Art will happen, just might take a bit again :/

Anyways, was able to sketch out a quick rough idea for Grims face-wise today?

Still trying to figure out how exactly I wanna do everyone's hair and all, (trying to roughly translate helm shape and all that), but for Grimlock here, I'm thinking maybe some kinda messily grown-out short mullet thing??? Like, used to be a real rockin' killer look and such when she was younger, but over time, she doesn't really care about it anymore, that, or the scavs are shit at giving haircuts lol

have had a bit of my crash after flying too close to the sun this past week and you know what, it’s very annoying and also very good for me in a stabilizing way.

Making fanarts of book characters in particular is amazing to me because of all the freedom it leaves you to create them yourself from scratch, and I love to see how everyone interprets the same text in their personal way. Even if you were to follow the descriptions word for word, you'd still get a unique image in your head and express it with your own unique style, so the result would still differ from anyone else's. The Greek class' appearances are very vivid and detailed and while the core traits that identify them are pretty much always present there are so many different versions of each of them!! Awesome

I somehow forgot how fun Spider Bites is to draw ♥ (Patreon)

I think one of the biggest lessons ep5 wants to teach you, is that if Battler posits on ep5 that he is NO LONGER the detective, and you therefore can no longer trust his testimony in that episode (ie him seeing kinzo’s ghost) than what may you learn about eps1-4 where he IS the detective?

What truths are factual, seen with his own eyes? what truths may be hidden in his blind spots?

An example shown in ep5 may be the way to look at magical scenes, think natsuhi happily walking with kinzos ghost in the garden, where lambdabern cruelly tear away the heart of her testimony to show the truth of her standing alone, sad and quiet😢

HHHHMMMMmmmmm, i see. i think i used to be more conscious of this "only 100% trust what battler can see with his own eyes" rule in the beginning, but then after a while it felt like there SO much he didn't see, and i'm not even talking only about the magical scenes, i'd have to be suspicious of SO much, that i got lost 🤦🏻‍♀️ and like... what the hell happened in episode 4 then? piece battler very much saw a woman like beatrice in the portrait standing on the balcony, he spoke to her. unless he's nearsighted and saw it wrong lmao... but ??????? FUCK
