malaa !!

I've been seeing you post a LOT about newsies recently and I'm intrigued by your little posts but I'm an anti to spoilers so i haven't been able to enjoy them just yet

i was wondering on a way how u may find it eaaaasiest on getting into it ? or just a fun list of medias to consume as i do so so i can at least have a sense of direction 💀

ahaha hiya !!! it's been like four posts (i have two* newsies followers HELP (u guys r awesome i'm just scared of u))

i watched the 1992 movie, then the 2017 musical adaptation both times with friends who'd already watched it (ily inkbagel <333 (and yoshi(and ziggy))) which helped clear up any "who's that", and "is he fr????"s. the musical does cut some storylines and add new additions so i'd recommend my experience (1992 then 2017) to see the creative changes (sorta like the outsiders where i'd typically recommend novel then film/musical)

going into it with the vague knowledge of striking newsies in the late 1800s— 'newspapers lads', subtitles and a google search of character-actors is about all you need! both the movie n musical do a pretty job of contextualising (i think moreso the movie for me personally) (i don't think striking newsies is a spoiler) (can you spoil historical events..?)

if you'd like How i watched em hmu in dms 😌 or just like any questions or funny commentary tbh

note: the 1992 movie is a musical film but not a Musical movie -> that confused the shit out of me for a hot sec

hope u have so much fun !!

* Three.

#newsies #i think there's a book actually #but it's not the source media so #if you have any questions hmu and i can try answer or also gind someone more knowledgeable!#wow tumblr has more ads than i thought #thanks ublock origin <3333 #mala answers #absolutely abused parentheses in this post #no shame ever though they're my equivalent of whispering #or jingling keys #genuinely no stupid questions (relatively to me)#(lowkey didn't realise WHY newsies were called newsies until i was 6 minutes in)#(ah yeah newspaper deliverin boys. newsies. no correlation thre)

Whenever Bill sees KingOfNJ's fics through Stan's eyes he just thinks they have the same taste in fanfiction (disgusting. unthinkable) continued

#Alex Hirsch saying Bill is a secret lowkey fan of Duchess Approves is the funniest thing ever actually #Stan to Bill's face: FAKE FAN. LOSER. POSER #Stan to the internet stranger with aggravating yet thought provoking takes: I think I WILL spend 5 hours on Ao3 gleefully debating this guy #anyway secret identity. enemies to lovers. slow burn 500k- jkjk potential is there tho. don't tell me its not #Theoretically the computer room whitelist shouldn't let Bill contact the outside world but the therapists are thrilled Bill made a 'friend'#Stanford has no idea but is also happy Stanley has a friend. It will be carnage when Stan & Bill find out. Ultimate betrayal truly #gravity falls #GF Fan art #fan art #Stanley Pines #Bill Cipher #Grunkle Stan #Stan Pines #Post canon #ao3 fanficion au ??

#where are my book of life truthers. where are u. thats my book 7 ending. ik ill be happy no matter how it ends but that feels right imo #big scary dragon enemy of mankind etc etc and silver just wants to save him. to wipe away the loneliness and fear #to extend kindness when the world wants him taken down (and not without cause. um. the world IS at stake)#like i think the horn disfigurement would be cool in a despairing kind of way but i want silver to break history's loop. to connect #i literally want a fucking 'the power of love' ending ITS CHEESY BUT THATS MY IDEAL OKAY. IM THE CHEESEMAN #im actually the drama girl so the horn axeing is more my typical brand but ugh. this. i ammmm sorry toro i am sorry going in a playlist #twstファンアート #twst #twisted wonderland #twst silver #malleus draconia #suntails #i wake up at 6am now Naturally bc of work and snoozed till 7 and the new ssr was the first thing i saw and i got nauseous #silver fans always win. write this down im so serious. we literally have never lost Ever. this. might be my fav art in the game #def passes silver's lab card for best silver card art direction but genuinely overall it fucks so severely

once again, don't think I'm not still obsessing over 7-12

(eventually I will get back to being less scribbly, whoops)

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 part 12 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 part 12 spoilers #oh cater. cater cater cater.#i'm so sorry but riddle is the absolute funniest person to look at and be like #'actually yeah i think this is good. let's stick with this one.'#no it's great it's amazing cater is amazing actually #guy who has never had a long-term friendship in his life 🤝 other guy who has never had a long-term friendship in his life #those two guys 🤝 third guy who sees the hollow voids inside them and immediately goes 'i need to fill that with food'#in this house we heart the heart senpais #fucking love how freaked out cater was by punk riddle #who is this. this is not his jousama. :(#(i do think one of the things cater likes about riddle is that he looks like he should act really cute but he is in fact A Bastard)#(a riddle who enthusiastically calls him caykun and is just kinda adorable is wrong on an intrinsic level)#cater once they hit the second level of dreaming: okay he's actively trying to kill us but at least i know how to deal with this #god. the hug. i'm not okay #that said i can't wait until after episode 7 when it finally occurs to riddle to ask what their dreams were #cater: oh uh...you know. :) stuff :)#trey: oh mine was actually -- cater what are you doing. put the teapot down.#(the rest of this scene has been redacted for everyone's benefit)

the thing about trying to recommend fiction podcasts to someone who isn't familiar with them is that not only are so so many genres represented but also the level of production can fall anywhere from "basically an audiobook" to "major motion picture minus the pictures"

#original #idk just something i think about sometimes #you can read a description to get a sense of the genre/plot/vibe but you truly dont know What exactly youre getting into till you listen #with nonfiction podcasts it tends to be easier to get a read on whether its gonna be like. some buddies fucking around with a mic #or more like a whole documentary #or with fiction books there can be different framings but the actual makeup of the thing is almost always the same #idk what im saying at this point i need to stop putting so much bullshit in tags #whatever #audio drama

i said that gale and cyra have disaster romcom energy and now it's all i can think about

#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #galemance #gale dekarios #tav #i think it falls under miscommunication trope bc she's SO hard to read that he would think she's fucking with him #but no she genuinely wants to know every reason he disliked that book #in this au she actually has a phd instead of just being. a weird lady #she's still a weird lady but she's licensed now #also idk if it's registered bc i haven't done a lot of comics with her but i see her a lot like elizabeth zott from lessons in chemistry

why are we saying it is fan service because characters from the same universe had…being in the same universe? Mags and Wires were long known Victors that Haymitch had already said were his friends, and Effie…you guys think she had just magically materialized herself as Twelve Escort? A writer wrote a book explaining the origin of her own characters and now we are upset about it?

#i think we should have more use of our free will #saying the book was bad written is wild actually #effie trinket #hunger games #haymitch abernathy #thg sotr #sunrise on the reaping #SOTR spoiler #you have all the rigth to disagree and hate the book and i have all the right to ask what the fuck?

okay the whole vase is great but something about Helen sitting on Aphrodite's lap as she wraps one arm around her shoulder and brushes her leg with her hand, staring into her eyes like that... as she is persuading Helen to go with Paris (while Peitho aka persuasion stands behind them) is so incredibly iconic.

and gay. toxic yuri, if you will.

#helen of sparta #aphrodite #greek mythology #greek vase #not pictured is nemesis pointing at them in outrage #(which is the only time so far i've found helen + nemesis together on a vase... I think about that all the time ToT its all so SAD)#anyway. I consider aphrodite labelling helen as 'the most beautiful woman in the world' to be her opinion. of course she's-#- the goddess of beauty/love so that's sounds obvious but. also consider... it's *her* opinion. aka her choice who she finds hot.#aka sapphic gay lesbian yuri whatever you want to call it helen x aphrodite is real and alive and there's nothing you can do to stop it #none of this 'they were really good friends' helen's sitting in a goddess' lap ffs. have you even read the iliad book 3?? read it again.#it's actually called the yuriliad. bet you didn't know that huh /j #i'll stop rambling (for now)#edit: im looking at these tags a day later and wow i really went for it huh. anyway i'm keeping them it's all true 🧡🤍🩷

been going a little bit insane about this sentence from Ace by Angela Chen for the past week

#replace this with any other type of significant relationship too #also! this book actually rules btw i really recommend it #i didnt read it when it first cane out bc i was like. well i am already pretty familiar with asexuality and not rly interested in 101 stuff #but it turns out it doesnt feel 101-y at all its a super awesome piece of queer theory and also chen has Good opinions #and not weird watered down ones that i am sometimes wary of in aspec communities (frankly especially ace ones)#i think maybe if more people approached asexuality the way chen does (including and maybe even especially ace people)#i would be more inclined to still ID as ace #but anyways!#aro #aromantic #<- tag selections that reflect how i personally engage with this quote #also #described in alt text #also also #j tag #:/#aro media

“He will bring a rose for you,” her father had promised her, but a rose was no good, a rose would not keep her safe.

based from this post.

#brienne of tarth #asoiaf #valyrianscrolls #mine.#this is actually a warm up but I once again got carried away bc I liked the Concept….#relating brienne to roses is so batb specific germ rlly said I WILL have a batb insert in my book #but I kind of like doing that ^ blurring effect hehe like I think it looks nice??? kind of washes out my colours tho but oh well

#illustration #trans man #oc #milomir #yuval #im finally writing down their story for my book..#Yuval is hard to be around. Often in a bad mood and makes reasons to not like everyone he meets. Excuses to not be close to people #A paranoid depressive lost in his head..But poetic and yearning when alone.#Milomir is also rough around the edges but very loyal to those he likes. Doesn't have good boundaries. He is obsessive and goes too far.#He's the fairy the other fairies are kinda like “Uh.. Dude.. Too much..” to #yuval thinks the sea is trying to kidnap him (and he's right)#milomir spent hundreds of hours crafting the wings he wears so he would look like a more acceptable fairy. He's actually a whirligig beetle #His hood covers his second set of eyes.#anyway I thought I would arrange their panels in a nice way..

All illustrations for The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation: Russian Edition Exclusives, Volume 5

Finally got my hands on the russian истари/Istari publication volume 5 for Mo Dao Zu Shi, so here are high resolution scans of the art exclusive to this particular edition. The art here portrays events that occur in the post-storyline extras.

Full resolution available for download here (tumblr compresses images a little)

Illustration Artist: Marina Privalova (Baoshan Karo)

[Vol. 1] - [Vol. 2] - [Vol. 3] - [Vol. 4] - [Vol. 5] (part 1)

#mdzs #mo dao zu shi #the grandmaster of demonic cultivation #the founder of diabolism #mxtx mdzs #wei wuxian #illustrations #wangxian #mdzs novel #official art #I'm working on making some upscaled scans of the art from the other novels as well #tbh these aren't actually “scans”#I actually just took pics of the pages with my phone and then have to edit it and redraw some parts of the original image or add space #because pages aren't flat and I don't own a scanner unfortunately #and sometimes the words on the other side bled through the page #these are 100% faithful though #the only things I ever had to extend are environmental #I looked for an epub or pdf of this book for so long but couldn't find it anywhere #and I mean literally anywhere 😭 scoured Russian social media sites for hours and nothing #did find an interesting weird mdzs Russian translation though #weird as in the translation was not accurate at all #but it had its own little art interspersed #I think it was a fan thing rather than an official translation
