i am loving tlou so much so far i had to make a long rant post about it but god!!!!

yeah it’s just two episodes for now, but i couldn’t have asked for anything better. they are doing it all so well. i love what they kept from the game, and what they changed, what they took out, and what they enhanced. i love the background we are getting, the terrifying idea of a hive mind and a fungus that has rooted itself to earth. i love how they let us see how it all started, and how clever they were to make it all start in a factory where it made sense for the fungus to spread. i love the tone of the show that is so similar to the game but yet has details that make it even more terrifying, like joel having to silently reload his gun, something that in the game we didn’t need to worry about. i love the silent, gentle and subtle acting of the cast, of Joel looking at his watch when Ellie reminds him of Sarah, of Ellie’s joyful expression when she sees Joel protecting her from the guard that is so different from Sarah’s when she sees him protecting her from that infected lady. I love Tess sudden change in behavior when she was infected and Joel instantly noticing something is wrong because she is always the patient one. I love the background they gave in their relationship, of Tess going “I never asked you for anything, Not to feel the way I felt” and yet Joel’s eyes were telling a different story. I love that they kept the silly sarcastic and snappy dialogues between Ellie and Joel and yet added a bit more to it, making you notice Joel is trying not to get attached because he already lost someone he loved once. I love the graphics and scenery, the sound design that made me feel like the Clicker was right next to me to the point it made me sweat. and the zombies! I absolutely love the zombies, how the makeup artist made they look terrifyingly beautiful. I love everything about it so far, and I can tell love was put into it as well and that makes me so happy. This is what an adaptation should be like, and I’m so glad they are doing it justice and pouring so much love and attention to every detail. Honestly, big thank you to everyone behind the show. Thank you for making this wonderful game into a wonderful series, this is how it should be done, and I am so happy to see this beautiful story being handled with so much care and love.

#i apologize for the long rant but i am feeling things #i’m just so happy to see one of my favorite games get such a lovely adaptation #i haven’t felt this giddy since the sandman which was another amazing adaptation from a lovely story #i love when they do it RIGHT #tlou #the last of us #tlou spoilers #gigi talks #og

yeah we might be brothers in christ but so were cain and abel so shut the fuck up before i decide to find a rock about it

#postscript;#if you try to tell me cain and abel were not brothers in christ shut up pls #i've studied theology for nearly a decade. i know more than you.#christ's harrowing of hell exists to retroactively turn all of humanity even before his existence into ''brothers'' in christ #because it is not a literal term it is an evangelist term. bc christianity in all denominations is evangelistic in nature #not being a christian is 1. a moral incorrect choice according to them and #2. not actually possible. everyone is judged as a christian everyone is fundamentally supposed to be christian #calling someone a brother in christ is just calling them christian.#so ergo according to doctrine cain and abel are in fact brothers in christ #but #and this is far more important than any of that #i was not trying to be perfectly accurate to the theological timeline of the tanakh vs torah vs old testament vs new testament vs apocrypha #i was trying to make a silly one line joke on the internet #and all you do when you try to go Well Actually They Werent is make yourself look stupid and pedantic.#so for the love of god stop it with needing to be right online im so bored and tired

queen of diamonds, upright + reversed 💎

I've redone this like eighty times, I have to just be done with it now and stop staring at all my mistakes oh no 🫠

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 part 8 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 part 8 spoilers #coming in well after the fact but that's what happens when the art doesn't cooperate #and i just HAD to draw something for vil's ob (re-ob?) because i loved it so much #legit put my hand over my mouth and went “oh!” when i realized what was happening #i thought it was just going to be an idia thing because. y'know. closing out his character arc from episode 6 and all #so this was like. oh! oh we're going to get ALL the inky boys!!!!!#i wonder if this is why we got a malleus flashback so early...#not to mention everyone's dreams?!#i am braced for 90% of the dreams to be kind of jokey/inconsequential because we have SO many characters to get through #and most of the time will probably be spent on our lads (literally) dropkicking their emotional problems #but i am excited to see everyone regardless!#and also kind of terrified! what on EARTH will floyd be dreaming about. do i want to know.#i do but do i want to.#man. they're probably not going to get back to it but i do wonder what silver's dream was #what was he doing when he was like 'wait a minute' and noped right out of there #lilia: here silver i made dinner :)#silver: oh boy this looks great! ...YOU'RE NOT MY REAL DAD #ouuuagh i'm still deep in the blotsauce guys and i'm loving it #come make snowangels in the ink with me it's great

"Now, the vow will be honoured, and my Lord brother's soul will return."

Radahn stans keep winning, but I personally am in Miyazaki's walls rn

#my art #shadow of the erdtree spoilers #sote spoilers #shadow of the erdtree #elden ring #godwyn prince of death #godwyn the golden #miquella the kind #miquella the unalloyed #promised consort radahn #fromsoft #i do not think critiques of radahn are as shallow as “pay $40 to fight a boss we already fought”#the dlc is good right up until the final boss #most of the new bosses are good #i loved midra and metyr and messmer and the dancing lion #radahn as consort just comes completely out of left field and just seems like a huge disconnect between the dlc and base game #radahn's story was done with the festival #and it's a good end! i like the festival and the base game radhan fight #but here he shows up again out of nowhere when godwyn is the obvious choice and a godwyn boss fight would be new and interesting #you can even still have your villain miquella story #puppeting his brother's living-but-soulless corpse unable to accept #that just because godwyn is breathing and follows his command like a deprecated computer program #even godhood can't bring his brother's soul back #his body must be slain and he must die a true death #we could have at least gotten a line of dialogue from radahn but nope #ok rant over #this pic is sloppy but idc #no cleanup we die like men #yes i know miquella's model technically has only three arms but i gave him four bc three looks silly

This might be a hot take but can Mrs.Flood just be Mrs.Flood who knows what a TARDIS is cause she lived in London all her life, where alien shit is happening at least once a year and is always accompanied by the doctor and a strange police box.

Yk the doc aren’t as subtle as they think they are, word gets around as to what the box actually is.

#believe me when i say id love nothing more for the Rani to come back #but i also love the idea that regular ppl have finally cought on to the fact that theres an alien running around with a police box #also we need fresh characters #not everything needs to be a niche call back #i do reserve the right to take back this statement if it is the rani though #doctor who #the doctor #this is my life now huh #the rani #dw spoilers #church on ruby road #dw season 1 #dw #fifteenth doctor

the way that one line from the new epilogue in an astarion romance is going to HAUNT me

just. what a profoundly intense thing to confess to someone.

like, just these six months of newfound happiness with you exerts a force on his heart equal and in direct opposition to two centuries of endless torment, the gnawing hunger and exploitation. this flashbulb-bright fraction of his long life holds the same gravity to him as years upon years of darkness and suffering.

in all likelihood, he hasn’t even known his lover for as long as his worst memory lasted, that year sealed away to go mad from starvation and sensory deprivation, yet he still tells them this brief time has been so fundamentally and powerfully important that the weight of even that unimaginable hell is vanishingly small compared to this present he has now and the future ahead of them both.

how am i supposed to act normal about this.

#i need to lay down #just drop this in there right at the beginning why not!#that’s INTENSE. and completely sincere considering his demeanor at the party. god #he’s so… nice. in the romanced epilogue. i expected him to be a little smug and jokey #if tav told him the others weren’t doing so hot without the two of them around #but he takes it so genuinely and with visible disappointment?? literally shocked me #i thought he would say oh of course their lives have taken a turn without our impressive leadership lol!#and then redirect into something a little less flippant #but man. he just gets sad. astarion six months into a loving relationship is like a stray cat that instantly gets cuddly when you adopt it #dude went cotton candy marshmallow saccharine sweet in a HEARTBEAT #bless the others with your presence he says. i’ll always be here he says. we have forever after all he says.#head in my hands. how could they do this to me #astarion ancunin #astarion bg3 #astarion #bg3 epilogue spoilers #bg3 spoilers #baldur’s gate 3 spoilers #bg3

i'm ready to try

#This drawing is kind of personal to me #I recently graduated (CUM LAUDE WOOOO!!!!) and its like. not to get depressing #but when i was younger i was never sure whether i would make it to this point #When i was going through what i consider to still be like. the worst time of my entire life #This fictional character was there for me and she was something for me to latch onto and cope with #eGem helped me a lot with being able to process my emotions at the time but also helped me to reflect on myself #which i think is a big reason as to why I'm really happy with where i am with myself right now #I'm going off to uni next school year to study astronomy!!! which!!!#Im also doing because of eGem!!! She ignited this kind of childlike wonder for space for me #I love doing math and physics and whilst Im still a bit scared because. honestly i don't know whether this is what i want to do with my lif #I think i'll be okay either way #either way i wanted to draw egem again even if i haven't done so in a while because its like #i think i wouldnt be who i am without her. i think i'd be a lot worse off #so like. thank you empires smp thank you geminitay thank you egem This drawing is me expressing my gratitude #AND THANK YOU AUTISM!#empires smp #empires smp s1 #empiresblr #esmp #geminitay #art #fanart #alice.art #mcyt #mcytblr #song is andromeda by weyes blood... obv.. you guys know me by now :oP

Tis but a flesh wound!

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #jin guangyao #lan xichen #mdzs #wei wuxian #lan wangji #JGY's little shawl waits for him at the front entrance. It's for him to wear in the cloud recesses because he gets cold easy.#Lan Xichen personally hand knit it for him. This is canon within this universe now.#JGY is failing his little chess game so bad in this scene. He walks up and cutely pouts at LXC to pwease help him in his schemes #And when LXC rightly points out the holes in his reasoning he gets his back up!#But *dude* how the hell are you going to explain how WWX has been doing all these crazy things when the guy was Passed Out.#LXC can even attest to it. Back to JGY holding the idiot ball here; why make a point to press about WWX staying at CR #And not take into account the fact the lan brothers have an incredibly tight bond?#Why was he even *attempting* to drive a wedge between them?#Honestly I know we love to call JGY a schemer but he was so sloppy at so many points. Everything post secret room reveal-#has been a messy scramble to cover up his past transgressions. He is struggling to keep things under control!#He currently is staying in the public favour solely on the quality of his melancholic wet eyes.#You dare accuse jin guangyao of murder? When he's so sopping wet? When he whimpers and whines without a little treat?#To bad he's shown his teeth! Sorry you aren't old enough for dentures and can't put those teeth right back in your mouth.

wanted to practice some more intense angry expressions and what better excuse to further my agenda of giving megumi the emotional catharsis he deserves

#my art #jujutsu kaisen #jjk #jjk fanart #jujutsu kaisen fanart #fushiguro megumi #megumi fushiguro #yall know tht one juuzou panel gjkgdghjkdfhgjkgd #guess what was my ref fr bottom right #i think megumi deserves to scream real guttural at least once #i think it would be good for him and i certainly would not complain to see it #i love stoic emotionally constipated characters dont get me wrong but also like. come on. points at the 'whatever!' scene #he's so GOOD when he gets to be expressive like PLEASE #anyway i once again have to do everything myself in this house when it comes to this kid #so i am treating myself to 4 flavours of angry megu #here we've got a fine selection of enraged ; holding himself back from clocking a mf by a thread ; seething ; and tortured :D #the classic capricorn emotions #real talk tho anger is Hard to draw #also bad fr the state of my skin probably with the way i was subconsciously Making these expressions as i drew #gna give myself wrinkles at 24 i had my brow furrowed so deeply

Please elaborate on your twst Pokémon headcannons I’m very interested

I had planned on drawing everyone for this (I made a LIST!) but it. hasn't been going well. 💀 soooo here's what I have so far!

Riddle - Roserade (I was going with 'no legendaries', otherwise I would've given him a Shaymin) (and I don't think Togedemaru is actually a hedgehog or I would've given him one of those too) (...they kind of do fit though. hmm.)

Trey - Alcremie (clover/mint cream + strawberry/ruby cream)

Cater - DITTO SQUAD! DITTO SQUAD! DITTO SQUAD!

Ace - Impidimp (I feel like there's probably a better one for him, but I can't think of it)

Deuce - Scraggy (meanwhile I KNOW deep in my heart that this is true)

Leona - Pyroar (but like. a nasty Pyroar. just a grizzly old Pyroar with the shittiest attitude imaginable. they pretend to hate each other but secretly they are a bonded pair, do not separate)

#art #twisted wonderland #pokemon #poketwst #i'm trying not to pressure myself too much art-wise right now #but i would like to do more of the characters!#(especially considering this started with my insistence that malleus would have a dragapult)#gotta draw something i don't immediately hate first ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ #ANYWAY enough art angst!#i'm not aiming for full teams or delving too deep into lore or anything #just one or two per character that i think fit!#i was pretty torn on leona for a while because pyroar is at once the obvious choice but also. not really?#(i did consider luxray and ultimately decided it doesn't really fit either)#but i kind of love Nasty Lionboy's Nasty Pyroar #i think there's probably some. like. ~royal tradition~ that they all bond with this one specific breeding line or whatever #and leona deliberately chose just the absolute worst one #took one look at this shitty rude pokemon and immediately went 'that one'#falena was like 'are...are you SURE' and leona cops an attitude like 'i'm choosing my OWN pokemon you're not my DAD'#as pyroar is actively attempting to eat him #actually it probably tried to eat kifaji first and that's when leona decided he liked it #me: this is just for funsies i'm not doing lore (writes a whole fanfic in the tags)
