ITS TIME ITS TIME

my unhinged laurance zvahl headcanons 🫠

- Laurance has a BUNCH of ear piercings. Candenza made him swear not to get any facial piercings, and she's one of the only people he listens to. He did get a belly button piercing to spite her tho :)

- He has a lot of nervous ticks. He used to play with his hair when it was long, but when Cadenza cut it, he started cracking his knuckles and picking at his nailbeds. When Aphmau notices him doing this, she lets him play with her hair.

- GARRANCEMAU. POLYCULE. It was kind of unspoken for a while, and then Garroth got left behind in the Irene Dimension. So, Laurance and Aph got really close. However, nothing was official so she got with Aaron. Laurance and Garroth only ever realized after he had died. Garroth understood, he knew that the polycule wasn't too serious. However, Laurance on the other hand, didn't understand that. Plus, he was dealing with the calling and whatnot. There was a rift in the relationship for a while after that.

- All of the kids in the village love Laurance. I mean, we know he was one of Malachai's biggest role models, and Laur had also grown attached to him. But, he also kinda becomes Naoki (Nekoette but less problematic) and Dmitri's babysitter. He's always been good with kids, but MY IRENE he cannot handle Naoki. Leona also likes to hang around him, as well.

- Laurance used to have a fascination with fire when he was little. (i mean the man has adhd and u know how we r with fire.) He would stare at it for hours. It was the only thing that really calmed his brain. But now, he can't stand it. He can stay near a fire for warmth of course, but he's never the one to start or feed it. He can't look at it anymore. Too many memories. The fire is literally a part of him now. His new body was forged from it. There's no need to stare into the flames. He just has to look in the mirror.

- He's still blind, somewhat. His eyesight wasn't miraculously healed. He has to wash his face in the fountain of Lady Irene every so often, or his vision will completely blur. Even then, there's still spots that never go away, mostly on the outer field of his vision. He has reading glasses, as well.

- He's very physically affectionate. He plays with Aphmau's hair. He grazes over Garroth's hands constantly, running his thumb on all the marks in his palm or his scarred knuckles. When he was younger, he would always find something to fiddle with on Cadenza's clothes.

- He would model for Cadenza a lot. Before becoming a Shadow Knight, he was very comfortable in his body and his masculinity, so playing dress up was honestly very fun.

- Laurance always has to do something with his hands, so he takes up a lot of different crafts. Tying knots, woodcarving (thank you @xerith-42 for that one lmao), making jewelry. (In my hc my OC taught him how to make jewelry, but we don't have to get into that now haha)

- Laurance has Brazilian heritage, and even though he was an orphan, there's a large Brazilian population in Meteli and he was raised around the culture. Hayden kept Laurance very informed on his roots, and in turn Cadenza got to experience all of this as well. (I wanna go into this further at some point but I want to do the proper research first.)

- Since SKs don't need as much sleep, most nights Laurance just wanders Phoenix Drop. That's why he's usually the first to know when something's wrong.

- Before Laurance became an official guard, he was sort of a... vigilante. Bringing justice in the dead of night type beat. When he was younger, in his early teens, there was a high crime rate in Meteli. So, if Laurance saw someone stealing, or trying to break in somewhere, he'd tie them up and leave them outside the guard station for the authorities to deal with them.

Alright have fun with this one crazies

idk if y'all have seen about the old pokemon game design stuff leaking, like beta mons, concept art/character pages, and design inspiration, but inb4 anything submas, just know these are BETA CONCEPTS AND IDEAS and aren't canon! Take what you want, yeet what you don't, don't treat it as solid fact bc it never made it to the game.

More evil art!! Because Shadow Jojo can be evil for a little bit longer as a fun treat!!

Also a follow-up to my previous evil art style post because I think I can keep pushing it further-!!

Anyone else got specific rules they follow when making an AC? For me if i use a coral gen my armament must be kinetic + coral melee, and i have to always use the hal core with mind alpha legs if I use it.

A slightly better Logan reference! The first felt a bit too messy, and I just wasn’t satisfied.

It’s slow going but the others are all designed (outside of some color choices) and will be posted once I’m satisfied :D

I have a question for Genshin side of tumblr, especially the multilinguals and translators because I am on board with Alhaitham and Kaveh them being platonic or romantic but it just hit me after seeing user & artist eannagram bring it up on Twitter

Alhaitham says he has a house and even threatens to kick out Kaveh out- yet in all the English translations they use the word “roommates”. Kaveh is literally an architect so even if the place is small, it makes no sense for them to share a room based off their dynamic. And even if it was a dorm or apartment, roommates is still the incorrect phrase because housemates, dorm mates, & flat mates would all be a more accurate translations

Are they genuinely gay coded and this is how the EN team is getting the CN censorship across without explicitly saying it or is it a mistranslation and the EN team accidentally implied they’re a couple?

When it comes to villain characters, fandoms will either "soften" them up as if to excuse their actions or make them worse than they already are in canon.

Either way, you don't need to come up with excuse that isn't even canon to hate them if you do. And if you already like them, why make them some OC?

It's like... do you really hate/like that villain or just a version of them you made up so you can hate/like them?
