so much of the world right now is showcasing a polished version of themselves. And to be honest, I did it myself for so long that I've become tired of it. And I never want to present myself as a person that does everything great because there's so many things I suck at. So I think there's an opportunity within that rawness to invite others to become raw themselves. And for us to see that, you know, we're not competing with each other. We're competing with ourself and our own image of ourself.

- Ryan on how he strives to form real connection with people.

#i think this may be my favorite part.#cause its literally so true. we are all just here trying to figure out this thing called life. be open. be vulnerable. have community.#we all need each other to survive. so to see him talk about being intentional about forming connections and not trying to pretend he’s #perfect like so many in his position tend to do. god just. i love him.#babycakes

merlin’s secret being a visual thing. when he is around arthur or gwen or leon or morgana or [insert whatever character here] merlin seems pale and thin, almost like a ghost or an apparition. when the sun lands on him he reflects it like a corpse, he eyes seem dark and dull. he has this ethereal beauty to him, this otherworldly visage that leads many to believe he is of fae blood. he just doesn’t seem to be 100% human. but when he is ONLY with lancelot or gaius (cough or gwaine bc gwaine DEFINITELY knew) merlin is heartachingly human. merlin shines in the sunlight, colors are brighter and more vibrant around him, and his smiles are wide and his laughs are boisterous. he takes on color and leaves everyone wanting to know him. but when other join in or interact with the two, merlin shifts before their eyes so quickly and suddenly that they aren’t sure whether or not what they saw was a trick of the light. the idea still leaves them wanting more and wanting to see the merlin who is just so full of life but that merlin only appears for a small select group of people. merlin who has a guard so high that it has an effect of other’s perception of him.

#arthur is absolutely steaming about this btw #he so desparately wants to be in the golden bubble around merlin in those moments #but his mere presence seems to pop it #hes fuming #its not until after the magic ban is repealed that everyone gets to see the glowing golden merlin #and they finally realize what the trick of the light was #merlin who is magic incarnate who (no matter how hard he tries) cannot fully repress what makes him him #arthur who finally gets to be in the golden bubble and its so much better than he ever couldve imagined #merlins magic is finally able to roam free the way it only could with a few people #merlins magic who absolutely adores arthur and is constantly reaching out for him even if him and merlin arent in the same vicinity #lmao arthur bringing up how merlins magic likes to card thru his hair and ease any sore muscles he may have #and lancelot and gwaine going ‘wtf? what about my muscles and hair?? merlin hates me?? merlin is playing favorites???? jail.’#bbc merlin #merlin emrys #arthur pendragon #merthur #subtle magic my beloved #visibly Strange merlin my dear #idk i was thinking about pre-magic reveal!arthur watching merlin and lancelot talking and then pouting and going #‘why doesnt he smile and look at me like that? :(‘#and then post-magic reveal!arthur having a moment of realization and going #like ‘oh hes hiding a huge part of what makes him him. i only know half of my best friend.’#and then setting out to know ALL of him bc arthur and merlin are soulmates and in love and two sides of the same coin and best friends and-#im going thru my drafts and finding so many banger posts #idk why i never posted them LMAOO

The Outlanders as Garfield quotes:

Shupavu (to Janja): A lollipop company just called. They want you to pose for the world’s largest sucker

Janja: Where’s the baobab ball, Goigoi? Stupid creatures love to fetch a ball!

Reirei: *comes back with said baobab ball* You’re annoying us, Janja

Janja: Like I said

Janja: I am Janja the Wise! Beware the power of my mind!

Shupavu: I’d never fear anything that small

Jasiri: Shupavu, I saw that. That wasn’t nice

Shupavu: It wasn’t supposed to be nice

Reirei: Don’t you know how wrong it was to try to send Goigoi to the Backlands?

Janja: You’re right…The Tree of Life’s further

Janja: I’ll settle this or my name is mud!

Shupavu: Mud should be back any minute now

Janja: *comes back with mud all over his head* My name is Mud…

Njano: We were expecting you

Kiburi: Next day: here’s Janja’s idea of an uncrowded spot. Every time I remember that place I get the urge to find Waldo

Janja: Hey guys, I’m back!

Reirei: What an exciting announcement….

Kiburi: It’ll probably be in the morning report. “Janja’s back, more at 11!”

Njano: You’d have to be pretty dumb to end up inside an aardvark den!

Tamka: *pops out*

Kiburi: …And the bigger you are, the dumber you’d have to be

#the outlanders’ quips in my hc gives garfield in garfield and friends #so i figured why not #mainly the skinks and leaders hfhfgfgd #may or may not do a part 2 #i just picked my favorite quotes and put which outlander i think fits the most #tlg outlanders #the lion guard

Since we didn't get pseudo-fiend designs for the alignment characters in SMT4, I was curious in seeing how they'd look! So I made a pseudo-fiend design and reference/turnaround sheet for Walter-Lucifer just for fun😈💜 He uses elements from both of Lucifer SMT4's phases, as well as Walter's human features.

💜twitter

#smtiv spoilers #shin megami tensei #shin megami tensei iv #smtiv #smt4 #megaten #walter smtiv #as always: my personal commentary is below in the tags!#I think my favorite part was incorporating the wasp-like wings from (SMT4's) Lucifer Phase 2! The gradient in particular was fun to add ^^#His traje de luces (bullfighter uniform!) truly is a TRAJE DE LUCES/“flashy” given the yellows on Lucifer Phase 1's outfit LOL #Remembering how Doi in the SMT4 FINAL artbook said that he didn't think Lucifer was menacing enough LOL Gauhguahgh...TRAGIC BUT TRUE.#¿¿¿¿WHY DID THE GUEST ARTIST MAKE LUCY IN BASE SMT4 BALD???? WE WILL NEVER KNOW...#I didn't want to stray too much from Lucy's SMT4 designs which is why I kept the gaudy yellows and TRIED to offset that color blocking #I've actually drawn this design on twitter and multiple times too! but I've never posted this character sheet anywhere until today #fun fact: I actually finished this sheet 2 months ago in MAY...but I kept sitting on it and never posted it fsr LOL

I went to the 2024 Cat Video Fest on a whim (since the first showing was right before A Matter of Life and Death) and it was such a delight to watch silly cat videos in a theater full of laughing people. It's playing at the Roxie several times over the next few weeks as well as in other places across the US (and the proceeds go to cat rescue organizations!).

#i had heard about it in past years but never actually gone #and of course amolad is one of my all-time favorite movies #a lovely evening from start to finish #i've been waffling on seeing i know where i'm going!#in part because of the temptation to make it a double feature with the 4k restoration of the seven samurai that is also showing that day #but i think i may have to for roger livesey reasons #not to mention the wendy hiller reasons #also i managed to have a normal conversation with people in the bathroom line afterwards #about things like what year the film was released and which character david attenborough played #and did not mention the electricity demands of the moving staircase #or that some critics thought the film was overly biased against the british #or that shortly after the film david niven's wife died while playing sardines at tyrone power's house #or the sundry other random facts my brain has tucked away

Hecate having opinions about Frinos pt. 1

#scribin'#hades 2 #hades duology #hades 2 spoilers #screencaps #hecate #melinoe #frinos #i love how opinionated she is about him LOL yet also being so respectful of mel's buddy choices at the same time #as an aside hecate's quickly shaping up to be my favorite hades 2 char #everything about her is just on point and there is sooo much nuance going on with her #just amazing character work on all fronts #(found this in my drafts from May 21st...I think I wanted to wait to post until I got a part 2? cuz there were more instances)#(anyways the perfectionism's faded so tahdaaaaaaaah)

How do people hate on the Gauntlet of Shar when the Iron Throne mission is right there

#i may be biased bc the temple is my favorite part #but #boi #that fight is a pain in my ass #like I have a party of TEN and I was still about to eat my fucking screen bc of it #and Astarion and Minsc still managed to die #which is better than the first time around when literally everyone died except like 2 gondians and Shart #and Minthara I think #but I did manage to save almost everyone this time around #except a couple gondians that for some reason decided to start dashing into walls #oh well #that's a you problem buddies #baldur's gate 3

*squeezes aine this time*

Read my Yandere! Dottore fics first (⁎⁍̴̆Ɛ⁍̴̆⁎)

Chemistry ๑ Magnum Opus

So @ainescribe decided to surprise me with more Darling fan art, this time of Dottore’s Assistant!! *sobs* I love it so much ｡ﾟ(��´ω`ﾟ)ﾟ｡

Once again, feedback will be in the tags. Thank you so much for enjoying my writing, Aine <3

#feedback #fan art #ainescribe #AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE ( ；∀；)#THE FACT THAT YOU DREW THIS?? AND SO SOON?? give me a moment. i need to cry happily #fun fact aine has made jokes about assistant and 'dead-eyed desi trauma' so my first thought when seeing this fan art was #'wow you can rlly see the desi trauma in her eyes' xD i say this both jokingly and seriously cuz AHH HER EXPRESSION!!#it's hard for me to describe visual art + techniques but you did such a good job at depicting assistant's emotions #is it bc of the thicker line art used for the eyes + eyebrows?? the lil eyebags/ creases under her eyes?? the uneven shading for her irises #all of that combined with her jaded facial expression and body language?? idk but just know that i love this depiction of assistant #especially since her emotions are an important aspect of her character design (to me at least)#moving on i love your original design for her. once again it's always interesting to see how my readers imagine and depict my darlings #and the way you drew her including the pose and design....she looks like a character from an animated show or visual novel!!#just put her name. caption. and dialogue on the side then she's ready to be romanced. 100% the fan-favorite character <3 #i rlly like how you drew her hair!! it looks very fluffy and voluminous (sorry idk many terms for haircare either)#the scar is an interesting detail. makes me wonder if she got it before. during. or after the akademiya?? from an expedition/ experiment??#either way. ohohoho the potential....i imagine the scar serving as a lifelong reminder to assistant of what she has sacrificed for her #scientific curiosity and career. not to mention that the scar is located on her FACE which is 1) the body part most crucial to a person's #identity 2) makes the scar difficult to ignore. to the point that some people may recognize assistant's face mainly bc of her scar #poor assistant. at least dottore is one to appreciate such traits. i can see him administering first aid or lovingly tracing the scar......#moving on to her uniform. i love that it's practical but also stylish in its own way. a perfect balance methinks uwu #the patterned lapels. the lil brooch. the leather armbands. the fatui symbol. the tucked shirt and high-waist pants.....aaaahhhh i just #love these small details!! and it does look like smth which a fatuus would wear on the job~#i think that's all i have to say on assistant!! once again. thank you thank you THANK YOU FOR EXPRESSING YOUR LOVE FOR MY WRITING AND MY #DARLINGS!! it means the world to me and i'll always cherish our rambles and brainrot <3 #dottore x reader #yandere dottore x reader #yandere fatui harbingers #fatui x reader #genshin x reader

my two favorite blue guys who are bland sndjfhgjdf

#khyt.aaposting #khyt.krposting #he may be my favorite secondary at the moment but he's not written very well compared to the others lmao #i think part of why i like him so much is because there's a lot about him that comes down to interpretation/filling in the gaps #at least it feels that way to me. i'm still early in my rewatch so i get to reevaluate as i go
