HOT, SINGLE, UNSTUDIED SPONGES. 3000 NAUTICAL MILES AWAY. Come sail the distance and read Tiger Tiger!
#tiger tiger#ludovica bonnaire#remy bonnaire#jamis arlesi#This comic has been on my radar for *years* and I only recently - finally - sat down to read it. And by god is it amazing.#I don't want to spoil anything! But if you like amazing art and character writing *and* high seas adventure? READ TIGER TIGER.#If you asked my who my favourite character is I could not tell you. I truly like them all!!!#I even like the sleezeball who has less charm than a dead rat. He's *my* darling little rat man. With every disease.#A special shout out to my lad (he is the lad of all time) Jamis Arlesi.#Who - upon walking into frame makes me go 'Sir! Is your bosom too heavy? Do you need a new bra? My hands are free on Thursdays!'#And Ludo! My lass! I love her dearly! Every page made me more fond of her.#Book smart and uses it in very good ways! Naive enough to think it is all she needs! Learns a lot and stays kind through the horrors!#I could go on and on but...you...the person reading this...you *are* going to read it - aren't you?#So I'd hate to spoil you any more! Go read Tiger Tiger! Do it! For the sea sponges!#Rumour has it they are also freshly divorced. It was messy. Sea sponge needs a distraction. That could be you. Distracting that sponge.#You wont know until you click that link and start reading!

#I’ve been thinking about this scene a lot#I don’t think aziraphale is oblivious and i do think he is scared of the threat gabriel brings#But Aziraphale and Crowley have spent 6000 years lying to each other and pretending they’re okay#So when he calls him silly or asks him to dance he’s not being naive he knows there’s danger#but distraction and play are what they do best#They hide and scheme and plan separately even though they both want the same outcome#And would be so much stronger fighting together#But for them together is scary. It’s unknown. And it’s dangerous#And so the game continues. The push and pull. Cat and mouse. Angel and demon#Being lonely with each other. In a misguided attempt to keep each other safe#As i said ive only been thinking about it a lil bit not at all really haha x#good omens#good omens 2#good omens gifs#aziraphale#gabriel#aziraphale fell#gomens#michael sheen#jon hamm#usersugar#tsusermels#userrlorelei#usereena#dailyineffablehusbands#my gifs

I know it comes with the territory in Souls games, but I always get a little wistful and sad when I reach Altus Plateau and the Roundtable Hold starts to empty out. depending on how you handle things with Diallos he’s in and out of the hold a couple times, and Ensha doesn’t tend to last much longer once the player’s reached western Liurnia, but Corhyn can just… leave. admittedly this prompts an interesting quest line with important lore, but realizing Corhyn can get up and leave and then (depending on quest timing) realizing Rogier died in his sleep while you were away, seeing Fia goad D into making a move and then leaving the Hold after dealing with him, it’s just…sad.
the Dung-Eater arriving initially got me hoping that a few more people would gradually trickle in but that’s not the case, and by the end of the game it’s just you, Hewg, and Roderika alone in an area that once felt if not crowded at least comfortably busy. there were people living here, there were rooms conspicuous for their emptiness rather than that being the norm.
the Hold always feels a little bit like a once-bustling space that’s long since been emptied, but when you first get there there’s this slightly hopeful atmosphere of those glory days possibly returning as you and your new comrades supposedly work toward the same task. that’s the point, obviously, but it’s still sad to see it die—to see this former communal space where (it’s fun to imagine) these brave and stalwart people gathered to discuss their journeys, trade resources or help each other out, and confer over battle strategy, become desolate and lonely again.
the Hold is a place full of potential, and it really cultivates a ‘wow, I wish I could’ve seen this place when it was full of champions working together’ sort of feeling’. it feels like it’s part of a history of chivalric romance and epic quests, and seeing it reduced to a burning empty husk only underlines how far it’s fallen. I really love it there. it’s silly, but I wish we got to see it when it was at the height of its usage back in the Tarnished’s heyday.
#I’m not naive enough to assume all tarnished were always allies every time forever#but I love the idea of so many adventurers sharing a communal space#confession: remember when the MCU fandom decided everybody was roommates and found family living together in Stark Tower?#…I want that but with Roundtable Hold; I’d LOVE to see fan art and fics of that. it would be so charming and fun to imagine#what if my tarnished and your tarnished were friends :)#Elden Ring#Roundtable Hold#ER narrative

Okay lemme go crazy for a sec
Season 2, episode 9: Guilt
When Tron’s simulation machine malfunctions while he’s attached to it, Beck has no choice but to manually figure out what’s wrong, getting transported into Tron’s system. Time for a trip down memory lane.
As Beck travels through Tron’s system, things start to freak out, as it slowly starts trying to fit Beck into these simulations so as not to disrupt or alter them. This leads to him being put in some weird positions.
When Beck finally gets to the dream simulation that led the machine to malfunction, he finds a horrifying sight.
If Tron doesn’t stop, he’ll end up not just hurting his subconscious.
#tron#I’ve held onto this idea. FOR SO LONG. so I went a little insane#tronblr#tron uprising#tron beck#tron fanart#there’s so much I’ve written down about it hhhhghgh#the simulation of Tron fighting himself because he blames himself and never wants to be so ‘naive and hopeful’ ever again#bc that attitude led to nothing but betrayal and misery#going crazy#something something also foreshadowing for Rinzler#also also the outcome of Beck’s meddling with this harmful simulation leads to him getting hurt which is a metaphor for how programs#WILL get hurt if Tron lets his trauma fester and doesn’t ask for help in processing it#yeah#i ramble#art tag#tron 1982#tw strangling#tw strangulation#it’s not graphic at all but eh#tw eyestrain#eye strain tw#eye strain#cw: eyestrain#eyestrain

The energy I'm hoping to bring to the Crow/Crow table ngl
#I wanna play Raff as a Brat#not that my protags don't have varying degrees of brattiness#Finn was naive to a lot of the world#Bennett liked to crack a joke here and there#but did his best to be diplomatic#until act 3 when the gloves came off#and Ro had been training from a young age to lead his clan#so he was always a little more on the serious side than not#at least until you got to know him#I want Raff to be an utter menace to his superiors and society at large#anyway I need to get comfortable drawing Lucanis#he's a struggle right now but he's my canon first run romance#just a matter of practice#ryu art#ryu plays dragon age#veilguard#Raffaele

i think martha kent should get to threaten rex leech with a shotgun tbh
#rimi talks#many people in kon's life would happily line up to punt this guy and i think that's beautiful#i think clark would have some Feelings about not realizing that kon's living situation was as fucked up as it was#and i would also love to see this. bc like kon also doesn't realize it was fucked up. and is so determined to be independent#but also i feel like i have to add 7386482 disclaimers. NOBODY BLAME CLARK FOR EDITORIAL DECISIONS#just bc clark carries the weight of the world on his shoulders and blames himself for everything DOESN'T MEAN THAT'S CORRECT#(also. ill take traits kon inherited from clark for $800)#anyway im getting off track. the point is. rex coming back into kon's life at some point way down the line could be soooo juicy#like the contrast of kon having a real support system. and being older and less naive.#many directions it could go in. have ma hate rex's ass or lois eviscerate him. have clark and kon have a heart to heart about it.#have tim threaten and blackmail him again bc i still think that's fucking hilarious.#have kara hear about what happened and be filled with righteous fury that has nowhere to go. bc kon wouldn't actually want him hurt#have roxy step in before anyone else has the chance. let her go dad what the FUCK?#it's about the number of people who love and want to protect kon. unlike what happened the first time around#the kontrast of it all. if you will.#and also about kon getting some kind of closure that a grown ass adult Using him as a child was not actually his fault#ough..........

Is that canon!?! Was Machete just really naive/didn't really understand the implications of his relationship to Vasco? Did his mentor ever find out about them or discuss such things with him? I assume bc he didn't have parents, he kinda didn't get educated on sex or anything. Was it a big shock to realize he was "sinning"?
.
#eh I was just exaggerating it for comedy because the page was so unintentionally funny and fitting#he might've been a little bit naive but was painfully aware he was in a relationship with a man and that it was forbidden#his mentor was all about asceticism and mortification and extreme self-denial#and had drilled it into his head that practically all romantic feelings let alone sex were foolish and sinful and should be shunned#so his feelings about the whole thing were complicated but in the end Vasco was more important#not to sound corny#but there was a hole in his heart that he had desperately tried to fill with god that never seemed to care about him#and once he got some of that love he had been aching for#from another living person#he had to do what it takes to make room for that in his belief system#how could such a tender fulfilling and healing thing be wrong#answered#anonymous#his mentor did eventually find out about them and wasn't very happy about it#to put it mildly#but by that point Machete had managed to mostly inch his way out from under his heel#he was graduating and getting ordained and wouldn't be going back to Naples#if it were up to him he'd never want to see him again

merrill dragon age isn't The Character in terms of being the guy with the juiciest backstory details or protagonist material but she is The Person. The Heart. she was working on one of the most important researches of elven history and no one believed in her. not her keeper, her teacher and mother figure. nor her clan, the only family she's ever had. nor hawke's friends, the only people who were surrounding her for six years. the only person who can actually place their faith in her is hawke but if they don't she won't mind. she is used to it, being on her own. and, despite everything, she believes in people. she knows it matters. better than anyone.
she has never heard a nice word from fenris, but she still tries to cheer him up from time to time. she has never heard a nice word from anders either and she still feels for him. varric annoys her when he tries to distract her from the eluvian, but she appreciates it because she knows he means well. aveline refers to her work as senseless and potentially dangerous for the city, but she is still happy for her when she falls in love.
if hawke sides with mages in the last straw merrill is the first to support them. "I believe in you, hawke", she says, when everyone else is consumed by doubt. and then she's the only one who openly suggests sparing anders. so he can put things right.
she knows the feeling. when you're on your own and everyone thinks you're beyond salvation, undeserving of compassion or understanding. and this is the best she can offer for people she cares about: her unconditional faith, her sympathy, a second chance. the things she was desparately looking for and never had. she believes in people because she knows: there's no one else to believe in them
#going through my screenshots and every time i see 'i believe in you hawke' i want to explode#she's an unacknowledged genius but also she's the brightest person in kirkwall with the heart of gold#and i wish we talked about her smartness and willingness to discuss and defend her opinions more#but she's also genuinely such a good person. not in the 'haha silly pretty and clueless naive girl' way#but in the 'thoughtful and caring and compassionate woman who tries to learn from her mistakes and deepest regrets' way#her banters are full of these themes. believing and second chances and atonement and it just makes me feel things#if i were to put it all in this post it would be practically endless because i really lack the ability to shut up#spiraling back into my merrill brainrot. i love her i love her i love her so much#merrill#dragon age

nvm this is still on my brain. kim does not like to watch harry suffer… to say that kim takes satisfaction in harry’s pain is a huge misconstruing of his character.
the “getting thrashed like a schoolboy” line comes from a board game, lol. it’s a tease, not a cruelty. there’s never any line that implies that Kim enjoys seeing Harry taking actual morale damage.
he can be amused if you fail a check, but the check is always relatively inconsequential, and again, Harry isn’t taking damage in these.
Failing to pry the trash bin open:
Failing to shatter Ruby’s lorry window:
(also in both of these examples he only responds smugly if you choose for Harry to stubbornly dig in his heels. if Harry gets huffy, Kim teases. If Harry backs down right away Kim won’t rub it in, which feels significant to me! it reminds me of that recent post goin around about Kim meeting your energy!)
and here’s some reactions to failed checks where he does take damage.
Failing the jump to get your cloak:
Failing to break down Plaisance’s door:
he’s not laughing if Harry’s taking damage because he’s not a dick lol.
aaaaand here’s some other instances of morale/health damage and kim’s reactions.
alternate dialogue for failing the harbor jump:
after the call with precinct 41:
seeing bullet holes in the wall:
most significant examples to argue this point for me come when harry has done something to jeopardize the RCM’s image. which kim goes on and on about the importance of maintaining— and yet even here, he still extends worry and assurance.
telling Billie about her husband and handling it badly:
hardie authority check failure cock carousel:
aaaaand the car. this line is one of the most mask-off kim moments we get in the game in my opinion, honestly.
tying this back to the schoolboy line— that line doesn’t show up if you have a negative reputation with Kim. if you have <1 rep, it gets replaced with him calling it “about four hours of our lives that we'll never get back,” lol.
it’s affectionate ribbing!! twisting it into anything else is bizarre 2 me lmao!
anyways. kim is a foil to every other cop we meet in the game specifically because he doesn’t view harry as a punching bag or a lost cause. gottlieb does nothing but sling jabs and glib jokes about harry’s health. torson+mclaine and the others laugh at harry’s panic attack over the radio. in response to harry’s suicide-by-car attempt(!!!!) jean yells about RCM budget. all kim’s lines in response to harry’s check failures and health-damage are consistent, explicit textual contrast against the callousness of the rest of the RCM. twisting kim’s character here requires a bad faith interpretation of the whole game.
#disco elysium#kim kitsuragi#sometimes i think that fandom Hot Takes get posted just for the sake of contrasting with the majority interpretation of the media#which can be fun lol. i personally love being a pretentious contrarian when the shoe fits.#keyword when the shoe fits#sometimes it just comes off as#the thing where positive interpretations of the thing are somehow seen as lesser or naive#which i feel is so antithetical to DE’s core philosophy#it’s not naive to interpret a hopeful story as hopeful#it’s not naive to interpret a kind character as indeed kind#kindness has as much literary value as cruelty in storytelling#overcorrecting for the sake of overcorrecting in this case just feels very. meanspirited#i don’t want to come off as antagonizing because we are all just posting about a video game on tumblr dot com at the end of the day#it’s okay to Have Differing Opinions On Media#but like. there’s a reason the post Did Not Resonate lol#oh also if anyone has a link to the other post i referenced i’d love to link it in the post properly i just couldn’t find it </3#me talking

*weakly, voice hoarse and barely audible* c!clingyduo were so young. so bright eyed. they were sixteen and they played in the creek and ran barefoot over the hills and nothing could hurt them as long as they had each other and c!Wilbur and L'Manberg. and in their minds they were going to win the war. it took them both multiple deaths to start letting go of that idea. years after the war they catch themselves still believing it
#inspired by rät came on shuffle and i was violently thrown back into 2020.#ctommy rät animation changed lives. mine especially#he bit the apple cause he TRUSTED you. And why would you lie? Then he realized youre just as naive as he is.#He loved you he loved you he loved you its true. He wanted to be you and do what you do.#He lived here! He loved here! He bought it! Its true!!! He feels so stupid!!! and so used!!!!!!!!!!!!!#im like 80% sure ive said this exact thing on here before but what is this blog atp if not me reliving old cclingy memories like a war vet#doodle.txt

TWST fic writers stop reducing Silver’s entire personality to just “sleepy boy who falls asleep all the time and is sooooo sleepy and tired and did i mention he sleeps a lot and also he loves his dad” challenge (impossible) (gone wrong)
#also if u portray him as LIKING sleep i will personally bite you#and before u say ‘oh but he really doesnt have a personality besides those traits’ that is incorrect#he’s blunt and honest to the point where he can come off as rude#he’s calm and collected and keeps a cool head even during an emergency#he’s a drama queen and often takes things too seriously#he’s not stupid exactly but can be very naive and doesn’t understand relationships very well#he’s extremely passive and rarely stands up for himself#he finds ways to blame himself for things that arent his own fault#he deeply admires and respects people who are strong and protective of their loved ones#he’s selfless and always tries to do what he considers to be the ‘right’ thing#he has a lot of trouble expressing his emotions and is insecure abt others not taking him seriously#he is so much more than just ‘precious sleepy boi uwu’#or atleast thats my interpretation of him idk u guys can do whatever you want#it just bugs me when ppl misinterpret his character so badly#this is what 2 years of hyperfixation will do to a person#twisted wonderland#disney twisted wonderland#twst silver#twst analysis#diasomnia#character analysis
