a beta reader left a comment on my manuscript that was basically:

"this story is a waste of my time."

and it's like....

i have thick skin and all, since i've been working with beta readers for a long time, but...

ouch.

thanks, i guess. helpful.

#like #alright?#tbh beta readers have been driving me nuts lately #finding good ones has been a real headache #bc i specifically tell people im not looking for line edits #and all they do is line edits #i ask them to focus on the plot #and they say yeah ok #but then they do like grammar checks #and its like #this story is in an early draft form #i do not need grammar checks #and i told them that #but no ones listening to that lol #well at least people are kinda trying to be friendly tho #this one particular beta reader #christ #i cant remember where i got her #i doubt its tumblr #the people ive dragged from here have been friendly if not helpful #she feels like #someone i found on reddit methinks #also i dont think her criticisms make sense #like im open to criticisms i really am #ive already changed a lot of my opening stuff #but this particular beta reader man #shes constantly complaining that shes confused but #no one else whos read that section has been confused #i wonder if perhaps #our intelligence is not equivalent

I need to stop drawing them my god

#im kind of posting a lot today but its my BIRTHDAY TOMORROW (said extremely subtlety) and i need to hype myself up #im gonna show some friends slay the princess later. its going to be normal. i wont be weird about it if i draw everyone out tonight #<- lying #we're also gonna do some pottery. it'll be sick #anyways um stuff about the art now #i love paranoid soo much #i got the ending where you get thrown into the void by nightmare and it was extremely cool #poor hero is just trying his best #cold's introduction in razor is also really awesome. its very simple but neat #johnathan sims when i get you johnathan sims #contrarian is also so insecure can we talk about that #there should be more fics about this. “but thats the worst part of us.. thats *me*” no do go on please elaborate on that #i cant find a clip of him saying that but i remember seeing it somewhere. i might have to replay stranger's ending hehe #i dont know if this game is really a good party game honestly #being a visual novel and all #as long as all of the endings they get are cool but not super romantic it'll be fineee #voice of the paranoid #voice of the cold #voice of the contrarian #narrator stp #turtle's art hoard #everything* not everyone #minor spelling mistake spotted!! send her to the construct boys #these arent super polished by the way obviously #the first two took about half an hour each #but the third took over an hour because i couldnt figure out the stupid colors #which is dumb because they're literally achromatic #ok bye for realsies #slay the princess

crazy how ive been seeing people absolutely losing their minds over the way amy is written in the generations remaster and how she was character assassinated and her crush on sonic was removed and im playing it right now and the literal first thing she does when you free her from white space is call sonic cute which is nowhere close to what she said in the original. wtf are you people on about

#and after that she was like ''omg you got me a ring ? wait thats not the kind of ring i was hoping for..'' or something along those lines #which i cant remember if that was in the original or not but either way . what do you MEAN they got rid of her crush .....#i havent played much though so maybe her crush really was toned down in certain areas but even if it was ..........................#1. why would that be character assassination why do you want her feelings for a boy to be her primary character trait so bad #2. like i said in the post theyve literally added a reference to her crush where there wasnt one originally #i dont think theyre trying to erase it. i think you guys are just getting mad over nothing .#sonic x shadow generations #sxsg spoilers #and like i agree to an extent that a lot of the rewrites feel unnecessary #and im not particularly a fan of the idea of them altering the story content of an existing game #but the stuff with amy feels like a massive overreaction #is it just so/namy shippers who think sonic and amy have to be together or the world will end who are talking like that.#because i wouldnt be surprised if this was the case

do yall see my vision?

#guess who has been reading the jeweler richard LN #im on volume 4 rn #anyway i always thought seigi's crush on tanimoto reminded me of watanuki and his feelings for himawari #i would also put them in the same category of 'hetero-bait' so to speak where they introduce a 'female love interest'#and then later establish her as not a romantic choice for the mc and then they're gay instead #its all subtext in xxxholic but man.......its just text in jeweler richard #also when reading volume 2 of JR i was like 'richard reminds me of someone.........' and then i realized its abeno #abeno haruitsuki is like if richard was in highschool and not the lord of sweets #i actually dont remember if ashiyan is that down bad for abeno but i know abeno is bad for him #hes still got that 'i cant leave you alone' energy especially halfway through when sakae starts showing up #seigi and ashiya have that in common too they both have daddy issues #should i have put that instead?#im too lazy to change it #i really need to reread fukimono i miss them so much #abeshiya is like an old friend to me #jeweler richard #nakata seigi #fukigen na mononokean #ashiya hanae #xxxholic #watanuki kimihiro

Iris my love... gotta have the girly secondary fursona. For gender time. Actually think she's being demoted to fursona number 3 but idk we'll see about the pecking order when refs are all done. She was waaay overdue for a redesign oh shit I just realized I didn't put a color palette on here. Oh well ig too late for that now I am not rearranging that bg

#oh i should pop some character related tag commentary to the top of the tags thatd be neat. so uhh fun facts. i think my sibling technically #made her first design waaaaay back cause they drew her before i ever did. i dont remember which of us actually came up with her tho lol. sh #has antlers but shes always been cis in my mind so just like. dont think about it too hard ig. also while she is in part named after the #flower cause hashtag girly things (this was before i too was named after a flower. hindsight am i right) she was primarily named after the #song. by the goo goo dolls. the song thats really transgender to me. hindsight am i right. whys my cis girl fursona got all the transness #oh yeah and that earring is supposed to look like an iris. they are not easy flowers to draw tho good lird #she used to be a whitetail/fennec cause i love my local deer but mule deers big ol ears have swayed me. i love a big deer ear #she also used to have paws and a nub tail but i realized i was missing the best part of fox. big fluffy tail. and then the paws made her #look too fox yknow. wanted her to really look like a hybrid instead of just 'fennec with antlers' lol. anyway now for less relevant tag tal #guys i fear i am fursuit brained rn i keep looking at her and thinking about how fun she'd be to make a suit of. im too broke for thissssss #im already working on a suitttt i cant start another one on the side i dont even know where to get foam.... cause joann fabrics is gone...#actually wait i gotta figure that out like. real soon. i need foam still for the head im working on. shoot. uh. guys where do i get foam #i fear finishing lichens tail and starting zoras head has made me realize fursuit making may be my passion. but i do not have the finances #for this. tbh might see if i can just work my ass off for a month in like idk june just to get it over with for a bit and have money. but i #know that will not be a good idea it kills me to work more than like 5 hour shifts for more than threeish days in a row #i should really just actually make a commission sheet and take comms. that would be ideal #anyway i will now shut up :) and also schedule this for a few hours from typing cause i just posted a different ref #zoracontent #zora arts #clovers characters #iris #furry #sfw furry #fursona

#diary #i took a short walk after picking up my package #and i looked up and then saw this lovely lady #she just came out of the forest and just walked right up to me and didnt even smell me before demanding pets #i leaned down to pet her and then she not only did that thing when they stand on the hind legs and buff your hand #she even reached up to me and like put her paws on my leg :((((((#so i had to sit down and she even jumped up on my one knee that was like a bench 😹#she was so so so so so sweet and i spent a good amount of time just sitting on the ground and petting her #i didnt take better pictures bc there were quite a lot of ppl around. like running and walking by.#and like no one cared but i am so socially anxious lol i hate it. i got these at least bc i wanted to remember this moment <3 #she is the most cuddly cat i've ever met outside tbh #like she even jumped up on me and wanted pets the same way my cat who knows me does #this lady was a stranger skksks. but this moment made me so happy #it is moments like these im reminded why i stay alive. bc of all the animals i will meet #i cant help but worry abt all animals to the point where ppl hate me lol but this world's humans is not kind to animald #so im really hoping she has a good life :((((( <3333 she has the sweetest soul omg.#im thankful she gaveme this moment and brightened my life tho :')))))#lol mostly moments with animals and nature move my soul and these things are rare for me so i need to appreciate it when it happens

yay! I drew these quite literally three years ago. dragonheart!milo and raihan! a knight on a doomed dragon hunt being lifted out of his station by a small village medicine man. together they become magic lawyers and overthrow the government

the main details in these do survive into the iterations I’ve drawn (instead of these actual designs I spent time to make el oh el): the “leaf” diamond quilt/gambeson and the plaited coattail for milo, the “atypical” weapons, long coat, and large number of scattered fake gold trims and accessories for raihan. I think I lost raihan the hat and added a cape for milo further down the line because like this their general silhouettes are too similar for my liking lol

#pokemon #swsh #applinshipping #dragonheart AU #gym leader raihan #gym leader milo #leon is the puppet king in this one (I never made a design for him lol. lmao) (its not about him!!!!) (it is just a tiny bit #sonia actually disappeared out to sea like just the year before raihan got sent off too. and the shows up where raihan and milo are later on #as usual the everything between those three are messy in a way that makes every one of them embarrassed to bring it up lmao #if u remember one of the october pieces I did last year. the applinshipping one. yeap thats from this AU too #lmao. also remembering the swordsman AU. in every AU where I bring up a king you can TELL I cant WAIT to get rid of that guy #(its usually leon)#anyways it's not about him this is about raihan and milo!!! iirc everyone in the village knows milo is Something. bc he has literally not #aged at all for four generations #he's like doing his therapy away from the dragon hierarchy out here and raihan crash lands nearby #laughs this is so hallmark movie romance I just realized. except the city girl is trying to #extract her family from the palace before stealing the declaration of independence #oh yeah the AU is named that Specifically because the 'artifact' the whole plot runs around is supposedly a 'calcified' heart of a dragon #and the magic lawyer part is so raihan will seize the right to the throne by haha. winning a living dragon's heart instead #I'm actually surprised I remember this much abt this AU lmao it's literally been three years! I don't even remember what Im #supposed to do tomorrow #it's gettign a USB stick isnt it. Im doin a canadian horror triple feature with the senpai #I gotta remember that. well I remember This so. maybe there's a chance #man there are actually a number of applinshipping things I wanna draw... theyre my Fuckin BoyS #well! there's this at least. have a good night lads! I'll have cake soon #it's time to put cinnamon in things.

my n1 guilty pleasure is thinkin that post m2 lauretta moved deeper into criminal after several years & ended up sentenced to jail somewhere in the middle of 1970s

#sorry... had to say it. maybe i just want her to run a brothel&etc somewhere out of empire bay and #giving interviews and shit and she's in her 60+s. and ofc it's a furor. and she enjoys it (more than?) a bit #yk i just was writing texts for SC for m2 women some time ago #and im sorry .. in my delusional head if she got the chance to be in charge; havin the same amount of power #as carlo she'd be so much worse than him (<- here it means better i suppose)#i mean if she'd end up in criminal ofc she cant have an equal position it's clear etc #i just enjoy her being cruel and having no morals. why to let go all this #m2 #also it'd be funny if eddie & lauretta'd keep in touch. both end up in jail #i need her to cause a furor genuinely. M4 could be if not exactly bout her #(i'm mentally bargaining w 2kczech) but at least takin place in her area of control #i remember some1 made a post like evil women in mafia series when #Here she is. Here's the woman #sorry. i may be cringe but i had to say it bc i sometimes think bout it since spring #michelle gurevich makes me think bout lauretta its like a ring bell for Pavlov's dogs #Where is this tt sound. “I DON'T GIVE A FUCK! i dont care about homeless fucking people!”#<- lauretta in my eyes #i also need her w wrinkles n greying hair so bad. im a weak person. im lying i need everything above so bad #*picture of a cat w wet eyes*

One of my favourite parts of D&D is the complete self indulgence you can put into every character. My friend wanted to play a rebellious teenager raised by her cool older brother who she modelled herself after (ranger, hunter, big flirt.) and then I get to take that and make him a kind and casual unwilling leader figure and also a cult survivor who had to leave his sister to come back to save her later and ALSO an aroallo whore

#d&d #shark bait #mair saeth #ridigan saeth #i gotta draw him he's so fun #and also like. just how playing at the table you make so many decisions.#i was so scared to play this character #then my player starts acting like the bratty teenager she was the last time she saw him #and i remember that HE was ALSO a teenager and she probably GOT IT ALL FROM HIM #so then we just end up playing out a sibling dynamic where they're bitching and bullying each other one moment #then saying they love each other while trying to act cool like they dont care #and i LOVE THEM I LOVE MY PLAYERS SO MUCH #all the npcs they give me are such a treat #oh gifted child artificer who's hubris led her to invent the gun and go into hiding. i cant wait to play you.#like what a fucking TREAT for my player to say “here's this nerdy socially awkward lesbian my character is totally in love with #but never got to admit it and she thinks she killed her“ and i just get to DO WHAT I LIKE WITH HER FROM THERE HAKSJAJNDK #sorry i gotta stop making my tags longer than my posts hdfskfj

did anyone else in the young millenial/older gen z range have a whole dystopia unit in middle school. like, we all talk about how dystopias became a big YA trend for a while, but was schools factoring that trend into their lesson plans a common thing?

we had a big list of dystopia novels to choose from for our book report. (don't remember most of them but i know hunger games and unwind were on there.) our creative writing assignment was picking a current societal issue and coming up with our own dystopia plot to write commentary about it.

#i remember my two dystopia ideas were #1. future where schools solve overcrowded classrooms by executing students with bad grades #(main character keeping alive by using her dead older sister's past schoolwork to study ahead and cheat) (sister was executed)#2. future where ppl could buy brain implants that make you immortal but they got recalled by the gov and repossessed en mass #(main character's mom had gotten the implant and now they were on the run together bc if the implant was removed her mom would die)#(possibly the implant was about curing some unspecified fatal illness instead of immortality. cant remember)

The Gun's 'n Roses ship from hsr is so yaouri to me. I love seeing fans make both Argenti and Boothill women then give em the most gothic au setting ever, it's so interesting.

#aria rants #just got reminded of that one lesbian argenthill au someone made where its like a-- dark souls type setting???#its one where argenti is a priestess later shunned by the church for falling for the knight boothill and she went off to smwhr #to summon an ancient god i think? for boothill in which case stuff happened and argenti ended up dying and her soul ended up #trapped in the church. boothill also died in battle but cuz of argenti. her soul stayed and the two just meets as ghosts #i remember retweeting that but i cant remember if i bookmarked it too. the art was really pretty!

sooo glad we live in the universe where twdgs4 was rewritten to be about saving the school instead of the original lis2-esque on the road each-episode-is-a-new-location plot. really dodged a bullet there

dont know if it was due to the cuts and collapsing work environment (no budget for all the assets needed) or what but the school plot is just like the perfect setting for her to end her story. and we really almost got a plot about her.... just trying to make it back to her original house? oof

#my biggest problem with lis2 is that being on the road made a lot of your choices essentially meaningless #like wheres the threat of consequence when you know youll be gone by the next episode anyway?#the kids were originally gonna kick them out permanently.......Nightmare Scenario #the plot of her trying to get back 'home' is so silly honestly like its Just nostalgia/fan bait. convince me otherwise you cant #it makes no sense....she lived right outside a major city... that place is Not safe anymore #it wasnt even safe when she left it 8 years ago girl why would you go back #her finding a place to MAKE a new home and having to fight for it? with a community of her peers who love and respect her? so much better #shes a community leader now :) of a bunch of kids living secretly in the woods just trying to make a safe home for themselves #in a hostile world that wants them dead #love that for her #shes been managing adults since she was 11 and even before that tried to be a voice of reason. at 8 years old. community leader makes sense #s4 is just so narratively sound to me for clems character that i cant believe there was ever any other direction they wanted to go in #every time im thinking about how good s4 is i remember what it almost was......... and i am so grateful we got what we did #not only do we live in the universe where s4 is about the school but we Also live in the universe where s4 was un-cancelled :) yay #shit makes me so happy man. i remember clem is living happily at ericsons and my day is Immediately improved #these little fictional bitches in my head giving me free serotonin on command #it speaks #twdg

idk if there's anything in stories i get more petty about than poorly-written "main character shows up to a new place and meets everyone" character introduction scenes

#personal #they make me SO ANGRY ahglkmsfkl #it isnt just the trope of showing up and meeting everyone either #like it works for me in some things!#i think pacific rim does a really good job with characterization for example #and it's got a sequence of scenes where raleigh arrives and the audience is introduced to the shatterdome & important characters basically #my working theory until i do some more analysis is that stories that do it well leave some mystery #like in pacrim you don't find out mako's whole deal immediately upon meeting her #pentecost doesnt go ''this is mako mori. one of our brightest. her whole family was killed by a kaiju and she wants to be a pilot''#he says she's in charge of the mk 3 restoration program #and she doesn't immediately offer up her backstory because why would she. real people dont do that #the russian pilots dont show up and go ''hello we are russian''. pentecost just tells raleigh briefly who they are #etc. newt & hermann's intro scene is one of my favourite bits of characterization Ever and you don't learn that much about hermann during i #all the info you get is from newt being chatty and ridiculous and mocking hermann and putting his foot in his mouth. i.e. newt being newt #and that's what makes it good!#when chuck and herc are introduced you learn absolutely nothing about chuck. hes just there in the background #he and raleigh look at each other for a second and you kinda go ''who's that guy''#AND THATS ENOUGH TO ESTABLISH HIM AS ''PROBABLY IMPORTANT LATER''#idk idk but so many books do this kind of scene so badly that it pisses me off #so many POPULAR books too. like i either am uniquely annoyed about this or other people are way more willing to overlook it lol #as far as examples go. the house in the cerulean sea and every heart a doorway were the books where i got so annoyed i immediately DNFed #i feel like the long way to a small angry planet does it a little bit but not as bad. i cant remember for sure it's been a while #i did finish that one but i had extremely mixed feelings about it #and now im reading a big ship at the edge of the universe and. once again it is happening #aaaargh

Theory with no coherent proof on my part: brenner only visibly ages rapidly when a portal is open.

#brenner 'dies' very early on after rhe portal opens in s1 so we dont see the effects #but in s4 he looks considerably older.#then in s5 he apparently has a whole bald cap - portal that opened at the end of s4 has been open for approx 1.5 years #theres the tie in to the ptsd/trauma metaphor with the UD representing repressed memories #or repressed memories aka 'lost time' in someone memory #the whole thing where ppl with traumatic childhoods cant remember their childhoods very well and it comes back sooner or later #i wonder if there is a supernatural tie into that in st? like when a portal opens to the UD all that 'lost time' suddenly is allowed back #into the light aka out of the subconscious and into the conscious re flashbacks and memory retrieval #i dont believe NINA at all beyond the flashbacks el has before brenner got involved #bc it seems to me that brenner possibly took advtg of els vulnerable state to possibly manipulate her memory retrieval #which irl has been a long time point of controversy which is psychologists convinving patients that they have memories of trauma #they dont actually have. which idk how valid that is but brenner is a psychologist so if anyone he could find a way #also when the 'lost time' comes back to the surface brenner ages bc of those time loops begin to unravel. the real years brenner has lived #take its toll rather than him de aging as time loops back again to the beginning #very dr who of him. or at least every time he dies its another time loop thats created except from our perspective as the audience we #wouldnt know. because we are only watching from a set linear timeline (1983-1986) and we dont see the time line resetting itself #since all the timelines are similar enough with only small differences ('easter eggs')#tying this into the wheelers- their name literally means 'creator/operator of wheels' aka time loops. so are they The Source?#with the subtext surrounding 'truths' and 'lies' in ST i dont necessarily believe all timeloops are created equal #one must be the 'true' timeline while the others must be 'lies'. aka lonnie saying how people sometimes make things up 'to cope'#that and the heavy subtext behind hawkins being a cursed town. not necessarily anywhere else in the US #and how you can only open portals in hawkins per alexei #makes me thinks these arent legitimate timeloops. like time isnt physically looping back and rerunning events bc otherwise it wouldnt only #affect one small town in indiana. also we dont see the UD/the MF be able to affect time itself but rather ppls perception of time aka #mind control and memories. meaning that could it be time isnt actually looping but rather everyone in hawkins has their memories wiped and #recreated every time there is an inciting incident (which is unknown)#^this doesnt really explain how brenner is able to revive every time he dies unless brenner is actually an admin of this system and lives #'outside' the time loop. so. brenner is a video game character actually whos actual player is blissfully safe from harm outside of the the #computer screen #isnt this just the plot of the matrix. with 'the source' (the central computing core aka the wheelers?) and keymakers etc etc
