For the twins in time AU, I genuinely wonder what kind of people the young twins grow up into because of Stan’s/Ford’s influence. Especially if it takes years for the portal to get fixed.

(Sorry if it seems like I already sent this question, I don’t know if it got sent the first time I asked)

I haven’t fully fleshed out how Ford grows up in the past but I do have thoughts on Stan presently

#he’s still his goofy brash self as well #but I do think he gets an outlet for all that through monster hunting and trips and stuff #he does get comfortable here though…#I’m thinking we have something play out that’s similar to the science fair #where they get close to being able to send him home and he breaks something or maybe even purposely sabotages it…#and I think he sneaks out a lot too #maybe he uses the secret identities in that way like when he’s in town he’ll pretend to be Pinley pinington #and that’s how he develops his scammy/improv skills #FORD ON THE OTHER HAND #I think he might actually be MORE emotionally stunted because Stan tries so hard to protect him #that it goes the other way #they kind of become reliant on each other in a really unhealthy way or maybe Stan sort of steers ford away from his smart stuff #to prevent the future from happening #not maliciously but yk #like I said I haven’t fleshed his story out as fully yet so I will get back to you #but there are some interesting possibilities #my art #ask #gravity falls #twins in time au #Stan pines #Stanley pines

Remember: The burning sensation is part of the process.

#Mouthwashing #blood #body horror #Emphasizing here that this is in reference to a media and character and not a cry for help on my end.#Mouthwashing is one of those games that tickles my brain and checks all the boxes for my niche interests -#-but it wasn't something that got the silly comic part in my cortex firing up. My analysis brain is eating well though!#What said...It is impossible for me to see this scene and not say out loud: “Me in the middle of my work day".#While there is a lot more going on with curly I personally resonated a lot with his struggles with burnout.#Burnout feels like mouthwash to me. That you keep rinsing out your mouth trying to get rid of the rotting smell #but it's just surface level solutions. The real cure requires something far more significant to actually make a difference.#The job 'is hard' and 'everyone struggles'. It's part of the process right? You're tired? Anxious? Depressed? Us too! Chin up!#Actually I resonated with a lot of things within Curly (this is a curly positive space - he's not perfect. He's just human).#One thing being his desire to see the good in people and believe in their potential.#Because here's the thing. Some people truly do just need someone in their corner who stands by them so they can grow and improve.#And some people will take advantage of your kindness. You focus so much on their humanity while you stop being a person to them.#The horrifically toxic relationship persists because Curly tries to see the bigger picture and believes in the good within.#Anyone who has lived through constantly trying to reframe the hurt as something else knows-#-just how many excuses your brain will make to avoid cognitive dissonance. It's human psychology.#Jimmy sucks so bad. But we the audience have the privilege of not having years of baggage associating him in our minds as 'friend'.

i would like to say my ideal PJO adaptation (if i was being physically forced against my will to have to pick a live action adaptation over an animated one for some reason) would be a combo like writing of the musical + casting of the show + visuals of the movies

BUT the show actually does have the playwright for the musical as one of the major writers for like three episodes and that did nothing for it. so...

#pjo #riordanverse #pjo tv crit #i do love the casting for the musical lots and lots though #it was really good #i do also have some nitpicks for show casting but they're largely inconsequential #like majority i very much enjoy and think are cast well #i only have one i'd say im actually disappointed with and that's Poseidon. idk he just feels. bland??? does that make sense?#like idk maybe it's the costuming but im not getting Sea God *or* Fishing Dad from him #like i think i kinda see what they were going for and i saw some gifs of him in another show where he plays a pirate and its like #okay. *little* bit better. but idk im just not getting Poseidon from it #in general most of the immortals in the show dont feel very Immortal(tm) but thats definitely mostly just the writing/show itself #not any reflection of the casting #my only other two are i would have liked plus sized Clarisse. i am VERY sad we didnt get that #Dior is a VERY good Clarisse though so i'm not too upset about it. i like her Clarisse energy. the yelling is fantastic.#my most controversial pjo tv take is im still meh on Walker. like he's fine. but like he's kind of Just Fine to me so far #its probably mostly the writing being bad but he hasnt grown on me as Percy yet. i can tell he has the energy though in interviews n stuff #and the main trio dynamic in interviews and stuff is *very* good. i just wish the show writing was better #because the casting IS very good but they have so little to work with. you can really tell theyre trying their best #i like to joke the show would be better if they just set the cast loose in the woods doing in-character improv #like its clear basically all of them know their characters SUPER well. id watch 8 episodes of in the woods pjo cosplay improv.

We were watching pride and prejudice and my hand slipped....

The scenario: Damian has invited his mysterious friend-from-out-of-town to a ball hosted by the Wayne family. Jon is a dashing young man, but he's not sure how to interact with all the fancy people - lucky for him, Damian isn't all that interested in entertaining guests (he has Dick and Tim for that) and so they're doing fun activities together such as Standing Around and Playing Piano, to avoid anyone else thinking either of them is idle and waiting for a chat.

Below is just a version with more colour on it 👉👈

#i don't know how old timey clothes look I just wanted to draw while watching a movie #they're older bc of high society conventions (you have to be old enough to attend a ball and enter society)#anyway I don't really care how you read this art idm what happens in your mind during or after this scene! have fun!#but for me oh.. they are pining #also don't look too close at the piano I drew that with my heart and didn't look at a single reference #don't look too close at anything ngl HAHAHAHAHAHA #screentone #art #digital art #fanart #jondami #damijon #damian wayne #damian al ghul #jon kent #jonathan kent #superboy #robin dc #also obligatory: I'm still new here! if you want to tell me a fun fact or teach me something about the lads go ahead!#and actually if you want to give me a history fact go crazy #I'm learning on the job friends!#it's fun to draw and have fun but I am interested in learning more things to rotate in the microwave!#also still figuring out screentones and just #how to draw nice HAHAHAHAHA I'm improving a lot though!#illustration #manga style

#i stg being that cute has got to be illegal somewhere #i didn't think it would be possible to make her look even better but here we are #interestingly enough #now that i've played some more actual game instead of just photo modeing my way through ikrie's quest #they didn't change all that much about her animations #quite possibly because they were already at the higher end of what the original game had to offer since TFW was already an improvement #and as much as it pains me to say this #in the end it's really just a minor side quest out in the middle of nowhere a lot of people will probably never play #(you should tho! absolutely worth it. go to keener's rock and enjoy)#so compared to what they did with the dialogue in the main game #this remains pretty much the same #however.#i think it might be due to the updated face models so animations translate a little differently #there seems to be a little more nuance to some expressions #...unfortunately somewhat at the cost of That iconic smirk #oh well. can't have everything #i LOVE how she looks now though this is pretty much what i had in my head the entire time #ikrie #horizon zero dawn #hzd remaster

No wait. Only this cat.

Is there a cat in cannon who got a good death who you think didn't deserve it? Especially if they committed crimes?

Tom the Wifebeater and his redemption death. No question. It's not even close.

Not only do I reject to the "redemption death" on the grounds of it being Tom the Wifebeater who is bullying others until his dying breath, even taunting Thunder about Turtle Tail is dead and the kits must be very torn up about it, but I reject "redemption through death" entirely. I don't like it in stories. It's a theme I deeply object to.

And again it's fucking wild that every time a character is a father, even if they are a wifebeater or a child abuser, the writers think that it bestows a glimmer of goodness into them which every abused child is forced to appreciate and cry about. Breezepelt, Thunder, Tallstar, Tom's children, all of them forced to reconcile and admit how much they wuv their papa.

Abusive dads in WC regularly get redemption deaths, too. Clear Sky dies saving his grandchild, Sandgorse died saving a rando in a tunnel, Tom the Wifebeater saving his daughter.

But Tom the Wifebeater is the worst example of it. Hands down.

#Though I will say it's not exactly a matter of a crime being 'too bad to come back from'#ANYONE can change.#But these ones DONT.#These fathers are *recontextualized* by their deaths and their victim is pushed into rethinking their anger towards them #IF they even had anger towards them at all. All of Tom's victims were too dead to have those feelings because DOTC hates women #And his children are destroyed when they learn that the guy they met once who kidnapped them and got their mom killed died #And that's why I generally hate redemption deaths. By their very nature they don't display what's so HARD about accountability #The changing of your behavior. Checking yourself. Admitting that your victims dont have to forgive you.#It's hard work!#It's painful sometimes! It's worth it but it's not always easy!#It's also its own reward. Your relationships improve. You feel better. You understand yourself.#but no. a redemption death is the end. You never really have to face what you did.#And I hate the way that lots of storytellers think it means it undoes the violence they did #IT does nothing. They're gone. The victims continue.#Where are my stories with RESENTMENT for that? How DARE you die for me?? How dare you run away from the hole you cut into my flesh???#You think the end of you becomes the missing piece of me?#Awful. No thankz #Bone babble #Tom the Wifebeater #child abuse #cw child abuse #tw child abuse

What's the best comedy ever made and why is it Wooden Overcoats

#wooden overcoats #literally the people who created that show reached into my brain extracted the very essence of my sense of humour #and distilled it into a 4 season audio sitcom about undertakers #to this day it's the only podcast I've ever listened to in its entirety #(nothing personal I just find my attention wanders from podcasts a lot i lose the thread)#wooden overcoats though? have listened to it like 10 times in its entirety and am currently listening again #i should write more silly chapyard sometime #maybe even finish that spider au one of these days #mr. bees speaks #i tend to downplay how i sincerely think it's the Funniest Thing Ever Made when chatting to my brother #bc he was in an improv group with one of the producers/directors at uni and I think he would get legit weird and jealous about it sbshfhhdd

being hyperfixated on a game with shirtless men is so good for your art improvement actually. drawing any punch out character will have me googling shit like torso muscle anatomy

#also i've noticed that punch out fanart has helped a lot of people with same face syndrome which is really good too #i was also struggling with same face and i've been practicing drawing different kinds of faces for a while #and even though most of my improvement is from referencing real people #punch out characters have also helped #but for me it's mainly body anatomy that i'm improving with punch out fanart

_____ used Destiny Bond! _____ is hoping to take his attacker down with him!

-

(Belatedly) celebrating the one-year anniversary of the 'Destiny Bond' comic with a rare, fully-illustrated piece. A bit of extra context and rambly thoughts under the cut 🫶💖💕

A little over a year ago, I posted the first part of the Destiny Bond comic, originally intended to be a one-off doodle exploring the consequences of Morty's prophetic abilities on his relationship with Eusine.

That sketchy doodle of mine ended up being a whole narrative project spanning across a few months, before I eventually took a pause on it to focus on my mental health (having reached a low earlier in the year).

It was a daring enough project in and of itself, especially with how I had spontaneously taken it on when I was still recovering from a years-long burnout with 2D art. Though (temporarily) stopping sooner than I had hoped, I can confidently say that this little comic project of mine had helped to rekindle my love for drawing as a whole, and had further lead me to meeting some of the most wonderful people and friends in this small corner of the Pokémon fandom (whom also happen to be obsessed with these two silly guys from the GSC/HGSS games). It's a project I hold dearly to my heart, and one that I hope to revisit and continue once I feel ready to do so; as the story has yet to truly kick off (I'm not even joking we're still in the prologue technically I'm yelling /lh).

I hope to be able to share the rest of this story with you all one day, in whatever new form it'll take as. For now, I want to say thank you, from the deepest parts of my heart, for supporting this passion project of mine - and to assure you to tune in for the future of this title. 👀✨

#surprise I'm still active actually . though more on twitter these days ASKJDAHSKJDHAS #ALSO SURPRISE ACTUAL RENDERED PIECE !!!!! 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥#I fought for my life for this fr I haven't done full shading in Years but I'm honestly really really happy with how this turned out 😭💖💖💖#I'll go into more detail about the design/composition decisions here soon hehe I got really excited about including them #Though I'll save that for another time askjhdajsn for nowww I just wanted the main piece to be the focus of the post 🫶💖💕#also yes as of now the comic's up in the air as I decide how to move forward #I have A Few Ideas though I'll need to take into account my capabilities and schedule (especially with my freelancing work and college)#So stay tuned for that because I promise y'all it isn't stopping there - I have A Lot more planned for our doomed sillies 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️#I'll also be doing more studies and practice with my art in the meantime because making this opened my eyes to how much I have yet to learn #and that's like . quite terrifying SDKFJSDNFSDNS #but also really exciting !!!!!

People really need to give Steel Wool a break sometimes, man- They messed up with Security Breach and now people act like EVERYTHING wrong with modern fnaf is all exclusively their fault when it's really not.

#Chip Chatter #especially when the issue literally WASN'T ATTACHED TO THEM AT ALL!!!#People really just say shit I stg #there's probably one person who'll think this is about one particular post #this post is a culmination of things #the twitter bs going on right now about modern lore and some people pinning all the blame on steel wool even though they don't write the #lore. A conversation I had yesterday with some people where one person kept blaming and shitting on SWS for the smallest of things #The fact that any time I try to talk about a small issue with modern fnaf in any fucking way I'll have people tell me shit like #“it's steel wool what were you expecting” regardless of if the problem was even their fault #and just generally people giving Steel Wool so much shit and most of the time it being over fucking nothing #Like I GET that Steel Wool fumbled with Security Breach oh my fucking god that was almost 2 years ago can we MOVE ON!!!!#They're improving!!! They fumbled one game and a lot of the factors involved weren't their fault anyways!!! Can we give them a fucking #break and just move on with the rest of the series already!!! I'm so sick of hearing people complain about SB when it's been almost 2 years #and Steel Wool is showing nothing but signs of improvement #Cough uhm anyways #of course you can criticize Steel Wool and I'm not saying they've never done anything wrong ever #just don't needlessly shit on them especially if the problem was out of their hands.#Rant over I'm going to bed

foolish though it may be i am once again thinking a lot about self-sacrificial character arcs resulting in memory loss.........bring out the gin

#something about this as a culmination of a character arc is just so uniquely devastating. an arc never completed. good god.#when it happened in artemis fowl i remember being devastated. but i was also pretty sure that it was a temporary thing from-#-being woken up in the body of a clone of yourself after having been dead for six months. you know the drill. and i think i was right #even if it was permanent though - he still /did/ get to complete his arc & his sacrifice was in line with where his development was headed #where as in w359 eiffel's loss just Killed me in a way that i dont think fiction has....done before?#i saw it worded really well somewhere else. his 'end' is more of a typical /mid arc/ development where the 'improving' character must-#-now see their past from the outside and 'change their ways' based on this. or whatever. and the kicker with eiffel is that it happens-#-right at the end. we barely see him after it happens and we don't know what he chooses to do. it's definitely hinted at. but it's left-#- ultimately up to us‚ which works thematically. and it's powerful but i can understand the beef that some listeners have with it-#-bc of the way it's all just cut off. anyway this is not a post for my specific post canon theories but they're there. and highly specific #some things can really. clenches fist. make you relive the emotions you felt when you finished the entire artemis fowl series aged 15 #and i do think there's a lot of overlapping themes in both af and w359 that are worth comparing but that's another post lmao #god i wish i had the eloquence to say what i want!!!!!!! and for it not to be a tag essay!!!#spoilers #just. in general
