Gamers since its Halloween I wanna briefly talk about my biggest guilty pleasure ever!!!

And you guys aren't gonna believe it...

It's.... it's Saw.

Yeah the fucking Splatoon guy who loves girlypop Idols and cute shit is also into one of the most gory and brutal franchises of all time. I have range!!!

I love all of these movies, Saw 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 , 6, 7/3D/The Final Chapter, Jigsaw, Spiral and Saw X.

These movies are the equivalent of junk food. It's like each Saw movie is a different flavour of a doughnut you would get at a 7/11. Sure, there are WAY BETTER doughnuts out there and it's not healthy for you, but MY GOD! THOSE DOUGHNUTS BE HITTING DIFFERENT WHEN YOU'RE IN THE MOOD FOR THEM!!!

Saw 1 to 3 I would actually consider good to decent movies. I would recommend the first one to most people.

Saw 4 and 5 are... boring. They got some good traps but they are just.... boring!!!!

Saw 6? That's pretty good... I like the unique angle they took with the criticism of the American healthcare system.

Saw 7.... you wanna hear a hot take? I enjoy that one. It's so bad that it's good in my eyes. It's just pure trash that it rolls back around to being enjoyable.

Jigsaw, that movie sucks I'm sorry HAHAHA! NO STYLE! NO GOOD TRAPS! PLOT HOLES ALL OVER THE PLACE! That movie was not made with love AT ALL!!! But... I do like that giant spiral trap... and the laser collars are fucking dumb as hell but I love em.

Spiral? Eeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhh.... I meannnnn.... it's got some decent traps? The uh... the finger trap was cool! The... train one! I like that one... um.... the hot wax one is dumb but the concept is fine enough I guess? The puppet trap with the blood needles is one of the only traps I can't watch because sucking blood with needles makes me lightheaded. The other trap that i cant watch is The Rack. (Also, don't fucking hire Chris Rock in any serious role ever again.)

Saw X... I like that one. It truly felt like a return to the series, even down to the fucking ASPECT RATIO they filmed in!!! Thats good attention to detail!!! And the traps were actually good and memorable, well, most of them. Seeing John Kramer back as the focus is awesome too and Amanda... it was so nice seeing her again.

So yeah, I don't have much to say because my Saw fixation only appears once in a blue moon so I dont remember much. But when it strikes? Oh it STRIKES ALRIGHT!

Only watch Saw 1 and MAYBE Saw 2 and 3 if you're curious. These movies aren't for most people and I don't recommend it to everyone.

Also, I love Billy. He's such a silly guy. I love how he rides in with his tricycle!!!!

I love him in Saw X where he delivered the surgery tools so that a man can cut open his brain! And in Saw 4 where his head became a shotgun!!! And in Saw 1 where he rides in after a traumatised woman cuts open a person's stomach to stop their skull from being utterly destroyed!!! And in Saw 2 where he laughs at some police officers getting killed by a set of deadly stairs and an electric fence. And in Jigsaw where he watches people getting hanged!!!! And in Saw 6 where he swoops in from a wire around his neck and laughs at a guy who has to choose who's he gonna let die. And in Saw 7 where he crashes through a window in a cage to tell a guy to stab himself with spikes to stop a woman from getting impaled on a giant wheel!!!

Think of all the horrors that I promised you I'd bring I promise you, they'll sing of every time You passed your fingers through my hair and called me child Witness me, old man, I am the wild

The Horror and the Wild by The Amazing Devil

Hunt!Irbis - or, how Fish calls her, "The Hound"! Exploring thrillseeker-Irbis enjoying her life as a big toothy monster is a lot of fun for me - especially if I ignore the later part of this story :") (Don't be fooled, there're no such thing as consequence-free avatarship in my AU haha)

It would be a lie to say that Irbis regretted opening up to the Hunt. She became stronger, faster and way, way more durable - the perfect bodyguard. Irbis could see the irony of her gaining this power the same day she tragically failed at her job. Coming to terms with losing Parhelion was way harder than accepting her new monstrous life, and it wasn't a surprise. Morticians, although reluctant at first, decided that they won't lose another family member that day, and Newt kept her fate a secret from Center. In fact, he was the first to promise to stay at her side no matter the form she takes - a sentiment that undeniably brought them closer. Feeding her "master" wasn't an issue, and Irbis's prey was always welcomed at camp. Her way of living didn't change that much - in fact, Irbis felt like she was more useful to the team than ever before and embraced her newfound strength. ...Irbis didn't understand at first, why Stargazer forbid her from seeing Newt right after the attack. She was the one who saved him, after all, couldn't she comfort her friend? Only after sneaking in to say hi and almost getting shot a belated realisation finally sunk in. Now her friend knew, what it's like to be hunted, and he won't take another gamble even with her.

Fun fact about the second version: it was completely accidental! I've put all layers into a folder, and it messed up all of Glow layers in a very fun way - I just polished it a bit. I was pretty intentional with my artistic decisions on the original drawing (the first one), and I like how it turned out, but colors on the second one're soooo tasty… Can't decide which one's the best, so enjoy both of them :3 I want to make another one with Stargazer, but I kinda lost the steam( Maybe later, besides, I have an idea for this piece and a perfect song...

Been reading Romancing Mr. Bridgerton since I am SO excited that season 3 is gonna be polin. Ngl I skipped book 2 and 3 to get to it, I will go back to read those. But man. I am wanting:

Angry Colin. I want him to lose his temper like he does in the book. Because damn that is hot.

The carriage scene. One moment he’s mad at her the next he’s got face full of titty. I mean it’s just an um interesting scene.

Colin and Penelope bonding over writing, Pen helping him edit and publish his journals.

Just a glow up and overall development for both. They spend the first 2 seasons as side characters, Colin more so than Penelope, that I am just ready for them to have that main character energy and give it their all. Especially Penelope. She deserves to THRIVE this season.

Finally drawing some gore up in this bitch

[jesterwriting]

if theres one thing to know about me, its that i LOVE crossovers. introducing one hyperfixation to the next, indulging in some absolutely off the wall wish fulfillment, shoving my oc from one media into the next. combine that with the isekai trope and. man man…. the confusion, the lifestyle differences, the meshing of culture, the finding home in somewhere so different than from where youre from. i love you crossovers, i love you isekai trope.

[gamebunny-advance]

Hm.

Imagining Kun3h0 and GAB as mascot horror characters.
