youve heard of sex flowers get ready for the flower that makes you into a celestial shoujo herione complete with particle effects you cannot turn the fuck off and creates a wifebeam so powerful it can incapacitate and maim and keeps making you burst into tears and fall on your ass which makes the wifebeam More Powerful and you also cannot turn this off either. and is also still, sort of, a sex flower
from one of my favorite fanfictions, Celestial Afterglow by elanor_pam, a fic that defies description in the best possible way
#arts#shen qingqiu#svsss#listen im not saying that ive spent a cumulative half a year reading this fic and then trying to make an arts for it#and then getting frustrated and stopping because i couldn't figure out how to make sqq shimmery enough#but like. im not NOT saying that#this is the FOURTH time ive started something for this bitch it haunts my fucking dreams and yet the opalescent glittery sqq evades me#perhaps you o unlearned fool look at this and say hmm that's too many colour layers and glowy effects but oh how wrong you are#if it doesnt make you literally fall over yourself at how otherworldly and radiant he is then there is room for improvement yet#perhaps you look at this and you think Wow!!! this gives me literally NO ideas what this fic is about#well Let Me Tell You. i have no fucking idea how to summarize this fic#its not often the tags in a fic give me pause but i saw this and as i read the tags i was increasingly just like What#but i have no idea how to describe it. the tags arent NOT accurate but i was SO unprepared for what happened in like an extremely pos way#if i were tagging this i think i would give it the no archive warnings apply label if that matters to you#the author seemed they wanted to leaned towards over caution rather than risk missing anything re tags because This Is A Weird Fic#but oh my fucking god#i am gripping you by the shoulders i cannot stress enough how charming it is#brilliant characterization especially with airplane in the first scene#and also so much fucking funnier than i thought possible for the general setting summary tags and buildup#its just. ough. its good

I've been thinking about the story of the Psychic 7 more and the world of Psychonauts, and I think part of the reason why it just stuck so intensely in my brain is because of the little glimpses we get of their past, and how towards the end of the game, after everything that's happened, the group is reunited. Yes, there's things to work out, things they have to talk about (primarily looking at you, Ford), but despite everything, they're all together again.
Let me explain. (Also, please keep in mind I haven't played the game in almost 2 years and I only recently started rereading things for the games, I could miss some details).
In the world of Psychonauts, the world is not kind to psychics.
We're told this right away in the beginning of the first game. When Raz is reciting the text from the pamphlet for the summer camp, he has these lines:
Raz: You were born with a special gift but the people around you treat it like a curse. Your mother is afraid of you and your father looks at you with shame in his eyes. Come to Whispering Rock psychic summer camp and you can show them all! Back home your powers make you a loner, an outcast, a circus freak, but in this dojo in this psychic dojo they make you a hero.Ā
As they show different campers in this scene, we know that these words hit home for them. They can all relate to the words Raz is reciting. Even by Raz's time, even after there's been a Psychic organization helping people for years, psychics aren't fully accepted.
To anyone that's ever felt othered, felt like they didn't belong somewhere, these words are relatable. We instantly relate to our main character, and potentially to the other psychic characters we meet. We know what their struggle is like.
Now like I said, this was in Raz's time. But back in the Psychic 7's time? There wasn't an organization like the Psychonauts. Back then there would have been even less reason for them to be accepted, so I think things were potentially even worse back then. There was far less known about how psychic powers worked since Otto and the others were the ones to do the research, and no doubt people were probably more afraid of psychics then.
However, despite living in a world that was even less accepting of psychics, the Psychic 7 still found each other. They still found each other, found others just like them, and they basically formed this little family.
Personally, what makes this hit even harder is the fact that none of them were exactly young when they all found each other, they were all adults and well into adulthood. They all had different backgrounds, different experiences. Lucy had already married and lost a husband, Bob had already lost both parents, Helmut was a struggling performer, Cassie escaped a dangerous environment, and more. They were all adults with different lives and came from different places, but they still found each other. Making friends as an adult is hard, but they still found each other and not only became friends, but became a little family.
And then, after Maligula, after losing Helmut, after being separated for so long, once they all see Lucy, they hug. They're back together again. They're not missing any members of their family again.
So that's what really makes it Hit Different for me. The fact that, despite the world they all lived in at the time, the Psychic 7 found and made their little family, and even after so much time and tragedy and separation, they came back together.
#Psychonauts#Psychonauts 2#Cy rambles#Psychic 7#Ford Cruller#Lucrecia Mux#Nona Aquato#Otto Mentallis#Bob Zanotto#Helmut Fullbear#Compton Boole#Cassie O'Pia#Honestly there's probably more I could ramble about here#But I think this summarizes my recent thoughts pretty well#And yeah after hearing that speech from the first game again#It just kept rotating in my brain#I could also ramble about the importance of the Psychonauts organization for the future of Psychics#And that being why Otto was so focused on making sure the organization stayed after Maligula#But I would want to replay Psychonauts 2 before trying that rant lol

i wanted to post this because the second sentence has always had a very memorable resonance to me, a la "how long and complicated lila's suffering had been" and in each of those cases it's the narrator both 1. attempting to recreate the other's point of view ("must have seemed so close") but also 2. imagining points in a chronology that the narrator wasn't there to directly witness. so it's both attempting to reconstruct a missing point of view and this magical fantasy of chronological completeness that i was posting about before. the fantasy being that the missing point of view is only missing because there's gaps in the chronology, because that's easier than grappling with the total opacity of this other person
#to return to the term 'witness biography' it's really interesting to get these kind of summarizing statements as though the narrator#takes on a biographical authority to speak on behalf of that other's imagined perspective#when each of these texts for the entire earlier part of the text have centered that same person's unknownness#and also the use of the past tense - both because the witnessed person has ended and because the scope of the narrator's witness is over#just one guy after the end summing someone up#he's beyond him!#but we always did try#i wish i grew up the second i first held you in my arms

You absolutely without a doubt have one of my favorite Michaels Iāve ever seen!
The way you draw him reminds me a bit of both Freaky Fred from Courage the Cowardly Dog and Jervis Tetch from Batman the Animated Series, and I absolutely adore that!
You also have such a cool way of drawing his hair! The curls are so detailed and confounding and almost looks like a living thing- itās such a cool effect!
AAAAA AAAAAA THANK YOU ššššš i had never heard of either of those characters until now but i did some reading!!
#and omg stanning the way i do his hair ššššššš THANK YOU#it took me saurrrr long to get right when i was first designing him. im really other people like it too!!#describing it as a living thing is such an apt way of summarizing what i try to do with it that id never thought of#i will be stealing that descriptor! ā¤#thank you so much for your nice ask!!!#tma michael#michael distortion

War Anniversary Press Conference
As always
it's not 1:1
quotes are marked
I paraphrase and summarize
I could get things wrong because too fast or I don't hear the translator or ...
(First few minutes are missing because of issues with my internet.)
Like everyone else in society, Ze says, he changed too. Got tougher.
He tries to be as honest as possible when he talks / to everyone. But sometimes he can't talk about all the details.
Ze says very important new detail about France support is coming soon - but he wants Macron to announce it
Ze still hopes in Congress support because otherwise he can't understand in which world we live in in
he met with Congress members and they know all the details what they need and Ukraine hopes for a soon decision
there are security garanties for the money from the US
Ukraine must be supported today not till the end or the end will come soon
the Poland matter is an internal matter, a political power struggle
using Ukraine as a pressure on EU insitutions is not fair
it is important to mantain the alliance with Poland, Ze says
if they don't find a solution, Ukraine will protect it's business
Russian matter is strong / intense in several places
Ukraine has reduced their advantage but they still have advantage
Ukraine has to reach the point where they can conduct a CO, until that point they will still loose land
but it's more important to not loose (more) people
Ukraine needs to put pressure on the partner's on the already agreed packages so Ukraine gets stuff and can succeed against Russia
the US support is not about money, it's about weapons
Ukraine has the weapons they have and that's it - they need more weapons to continue
there are different types of weapons
if US doesn't deliver, sime weapons could be given to Ukraine from other countries but that's difficult because not all countries want to give their weapons
Europe is really shifting and changing to increase production (ammunition, artillery, defense), their attitude towards the war is changing and understanding that Russia / Putin / the war is also dangerous to them
they start to understand that Putin will continue is war
Ze says the problem is not the military sector not being ready, the problem is that the European socities are not ready for Putin to come to them and he hopes Putin will not come to them - hence why it's important for Ukraine to be strong and fight (and defeat Putin)
Ze says Ukraine lost about 31,000 soldiers in the war so far
Russia: 180,000 (total amount 500,000 - KIA, WIA)
they don't know for sure how many civilians have been killed by Russia because several places are still occupied and people have been deported
every partner believes that Ukraine will be in NATO in the future
US and Germany are the main ones who have a lot to do with the invitation to NATO
Ze sees no risks of Ukraine in NATO
Ze and Putin had an unofficial meeting during the Nomady meeting in December 2019
Ze explained Putin that the agreements would not work and it would not work how Putin imagined it, especially with the troops still present
they talked about the possible frozen conflict for 20 years
they also talked about the exchange
Ze doesn't remember all the details because it's so long ago, like from a different life
Taurus missiles are important
Ze is thankful for the strong German support / support from the Chancellor
the US still stands above Germany and Ze sees the problem in the US not in Germany
but Ze is optimistic that US will move their position and they will get results / what they need
Ukraine speaks about jets with partners and that's all he wants to say
if partners continue their support depends on a lot of things: diplomatic contact, upcoming election results, society, ...
Russia will try everything to underminde the support
Ukraine improving the production in droes
everything is about making Putin a poorer person because that's what Putin cares a lot about
if the frozen Russian money is transferred to Ukraine it will weaken Putin, Ze thinks
big oligarchs and big businesses will not be happy (Russian ones)
if Putin gets poorer (like with transfering the money) he will start calling everyone not just Ze to stop the war
Ze knows that Canada supports Ukraine
the new document with Canada will support and strength Ukraine until they're in NATO
Ukraine would be happy if Aserbaidschan would support Ukraine and Ze thinkgs they would because they support the sovereignty of Ukraine
Ukraine is working on the countries who don't support Ukraine to join them
Ze thinks this is not the weakest moment
February 24 was a shocking moment
the most difficult period was that the world started to forget that the war is still going on, not only because of the Middle East
neverthelss they feel the effect with less weapons
the first year was all about survival, the second about resilience
third year will be a difficult year (elections, fatigue, ...), full of challenges, it's a turning year
this year will define the format of the ending of this war
Ze doesn't understand why they spilt the grain - he understands it's about politics but still doesn't understand it
it's bad that Poland's actions (the spilled grain) is playing into Russian Propaganda and that shouldn't be
it's not happening on Ukraine territory so Poland has to / can stop it, not Ukraine
Ze is not telling the Polish gouvernemnt what to do, that's not his right, but in regards of relations it's not right what the people do at the border
the longer this war goes the bigger will be the casualities (civilian, military)
losing time means losing money which is frustrating
the longer the war the longer the horrors for the people
the longer the war the longer it's hard for the countries who support
Ukraine can not loose time
(Huge part is missing because the livestream was having massive problems and made it impossible to follow.)
there has been evidence that Russia is using artillery and missiles from North Korea
there is nothing Ukraine can do besides help Ukraine
North Korea will continue to give weapons to Russia
Ukraine is not negotiating with partners on the use of their armys on Ukraine territory
strongest security guaranty would be Ukrain ein NATO
Ukraine will have a difficult time in the next few months because of the US
EU has shown their ability of leadership and support
Russia will prepare their CO at the beginning of summer / April if they can
Ukraine will be prepared for Russia
Ukraine will prepare their own planes
the US elections will show Ukraine what it will be after that
Ukraine prepares the first Peace Summit ad prepares the document about a just peace and the end of th war for Ukraine and everyone
what the end of the year looks like depends on a lot of factors
END

every now and then I have a dream that makes me stop and think wait am I attracted to women?? and itās like?? idk man
#it was a series of weird dreams#first I was with my family just likeā¦. traveling#and then my dad and brother disappeared#and my mom and I went to a ādollar storeā that looked more like a shabby samās club or hunting store or something#and got ripped off on a bag of cheese#and then Iām at some university or school and itās#itās like the plot of a bad tik tok romance novel#itās got vampires and werewolves and fucked up things happening#and then Iām in a big confusing but fun house#and Iām trying to turn off the light to not disturb sabrina carpenter#(who was also the author of the book I was in?? and weāre still in kinda the book???)#and sheās like donāt worry I got it and then we fall asleep together#and then sometime later she sitting in my lap and weāre like still trying to sleep I think#but I put my hand on her waist (bare waist) (for some reason)#and then I pretend to fall asleep for real that my hand goes limp and therefore touches her more#and I remember my heartbeat getting fast in the dream#and itās like????#am I attracted to women or am I genuinely that fucking touched starved#because that wasnāt even anything????#that was just like sharing a space and having skin contact#anyway#my brain thankfully skipped over the fucked up parts of the dream this time#instead it was skipped over and narrated/summarized to me by sabrina#so overall Iād say it was a good/interesting/fun dreaming experience#oh also the werewolves all wore green and the vampires wore red and black#and they were having like?? choreographed dance battles in the hallways??#but before that it was like more serious.#there was a vampire queen we woke up (bc at the time we were also vampires)#(idk who āweā was??? it was some guy that got turned into sabrina I think)#and we woke up the vampire queen bc I was a newly turned vampire??

i think one of the things that annoys me the most about booktok is how the majority of them absolutely refuse to read anything other than boring mafia smut or thinly veiled reylo fanfiction. obviously everyone is gonna have their genre preferences, but to never venture outside of them?? this obviously includes their unilateral dismissal of classics, but they completely ignore the overwhelming majority of all books that exist on this fucking planet.
itās one thing for me to say that i prefer horror and thriller books while also deeply loving antiwar novels and realistic sci-fi, these people say they like āspicy seggsy enemies to lovers only one bedā or whatever the fuck and just donāt even try to find out if they like anything else.
#buckyās thoughts#booktok#i think everyone on earth should regularly try to expand their reading horizons tbh#my dad and i are doing this thing where each of us gives the other one album book and movie that we feel summarizes us best#so once he finishes it iāll be reading my first nonfiction book in quite a while#and heāll be reading his first fiction book in probably 30 years#and weāre both really looking forward to it!!#because itās fun and important to try new things!!#for all that people online like to gripe about reading comprehension and critical thinking and what have you#i think not nearly enough people actively challenge themselves in the media they consume

EY & HJ stealing parallels
EY | HJ | Details
Weāve seen Eunyung get wrongfully accused of stealing twice:
The first time, his dad leaned down and directly told him to apologize, not even asking if he really did do it. When EY insisted he was innocent, his dad did not believe him. Instead, he shamed EY into apologizing for sth he didnāt do. His dad leaning down was a manipulation tactic.
The second time, HJ leaned down to ask him if he did it, EY said no, and HJ believed him no questions asked. Bc that's how his mom had reacted to him stealing. HJ leaning down was to show EY he wasn't alone and that he had someone who trusted and supported him.
(^^ HJ's reaction really surprised him compared to what his past experience with his dad looked like. EY didn't expect anyone to believe him, he's not used to that. Then guilt and dread kicked in when HJ said he trusted him bc he had intended to steal sth but ultimately didn't and held himself back ->)
When there was concrete proof EY didnāt do it, he even stood up for him. HJ asked the shop owner to apologize to EY the way his mom had asked for an apology for him when he was little.
But their reactions to said request were different: HJ thought his mom was really cool for standing up for him like that.
Whereas EY thought HJ asking for an apology was extremely embarrassing. He didn't even give the guy the chance to apologize before walking away (<- he probably felt he didn't deserve it bc he had almost stolen sth).
HJ did what he learned from his mom, and it almost worked. Unfortunately, EY isnāt used to basic human decency and apologies, so he rather removed himself from the situation to avoid another confrontation and further humiliation.
#<EY's dad leaned down to lecture/intimidate/manipulate him>#<HJ leaned down to help/comfort him. like his mom did to him>#<HJ asked for an apology like his mom did. but EY has too many issues to accept an apology compared to HJ>#<- to summarize the points#no home#no home manhwa#ģ§ģ“ ģģ“#webtoon#eunyung baek#haejoon goh#ey hj parallels#meta#multipart#stealing arc#<- i'm sorry if these posts got too repetitive. i've spent 2 months trying to figure out how to frame and phrase these#in the end i gave up and just did it. fingers crossed i got the points/similarities/differences across properly#i want y'all to know i had 20+ drafts abt this arc and made the first one mid february#it's april now. i've been sitting on this for so long. and i ended up doing and finishing everything within 24 hours#<- i haven't slept much. if things make no sense. that's why#still pretty proud of myself tho <3

girl i continue to underestimate just how little 2k words actually moves the plot along. i STILL haven't written that scene i'm excited about despite putting 2k words in every day since i started this chapter on like sunday
#she bork#novel 2024#hoping to get to it today or tomorrow but we will see. i'm also trying to stop summarizing so much bc by doing that i'm just creating more#work for myself in that first round of edits. so i'm just deferring work and it's like why bother when i could try to do the work now. idk#it's a weird delicate balance lol but ik i'll get there eventually

Alright, let's try this again. (TUMBLR, DON'T EAT IT. IT'S NOT FOOD.)
#game clip#Hollow Knight#Enraged Guardian#To summarize I was doing fine until he stomped on me#and then I panicked#Also I couldn't see the lasers at times#It was kind of an eye strain#But yeah this brings me much pain and makes me laugh at the same time#Like I was mad at first but then I laugh-cried and moved on#I should try and beat him on one-shot mode in Godhome! lol#jk jk#Or AM I?#My phone probably dulls the colors but just in case#eye strain warning

Sorry for failing to post more than once every 3 am anyways more stalien icons š
#keese draws#eternal gales#oc art#oc#ocs#now sprinkles is the only one left icon wise and ref wise Ive finished aris mase and the snake triplets#oh and then icons for the human kids all need to be made but thats a future me problem#Im probably gonna go for dodie or sier next for new ref#although idk when thatll be since Ive been once again burnt out as hell#but yeah I've been thinking abt the eg cast again I love them all sm#idk maybe I should make them lil summary pages so I can better introduce them all#I dont want to go too deep into actual plot stuff tho as while I dont have issues with spoiling things pre actually making the comic just#due to the fact that things are still prone to change I also would rather not basically live script out the story to summarize one scene#its the eternal problem with talking abt eternal gales its the kind of story where you really arent meant to know more than the characters#and as such while the worldbuilding is important to understanding the plot from an overarching perspective thats not rly how the story is#meant to be told as quite frankly I dont think that is or should be the appeal of this story#eternal gales is pretty much set to be an aquired taste of a story since the core of it is less abt watching characters in a plot and more#abt watching said characters having a plot happen at them while they try to navigate the situation and their relationships with eachother#basically it's hard to summarize cause while there is a plot thats not really how Id advertise it as a story#theres a reason Im not jumping straight into this project rn even tho I do wanna make it real some day and its how damn ambitious it is#Ill get there some day but itll likely still be several years at least until I go for it#mostly because Im gonna need to learn some programming skills or get someone who has them already to help#I also ideally wanna finish spiraling upwards first which will also likely be a several year project#tbf thats mostly because Im just being slow as hell to work on that one#but it's a warriors fan comic so Im trying not to put too much pressure on myself
