3.13 | ᴛʜᴇ ʟᴀꜱᴛ ᴏꜰ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛɪᴍᴇ ʟᴏʀᴅꜱ
link to the post I accidentally wound up prattling endlessly about in the tags 💀
#doctor who#tenth doctor#martha jones#david tennant#freema agyeman#(good god. without even meaning to I went into 'psycho stream of consciousness tagging' mode. whoops)#always thinking of that one post#where OP mentions how the writing tries to make it seem like Ten looked right through Martha/etc#which is a good concept for demonstrating his grief. but also isnt what we really see throughout S3#(not saying he wasn't a grieving MESS because he was. but he's a multi-faceted character and he can grieve AND value Martha simultaneously)#but we see such fierce protective instinct+trust; a bond between them that obviously isn't some one-sided affair#+ his clear intent to impress her/be admired and respected by her (apropos the post that inspired this sentiment)#but RTD obviously isn't the most infallible of writers#*cough* [list of reasons I cut down b/c long] *cough*#He can make Martha say “he's not seeing me/he doesn't look at me” but then you just watch with your eyes and you get a different story#It's like the opposite of when Moffat tries to make you believe someone is super important through bold claims without showing his work#instead RTD tries to make you believe Ten is functionally blind to Martha's existence while showing numerous examples of the contrary#then bring in the novels+myspace blog+cartoon that he all signed off on. Which tie together to create a canon backdrop#basically I said all of that to say this—#it's the whole reason I had to make this blog to get this sort of stuff off my chest (even if it's just for me sometimes)—#Ten not only SAW Martha—he trusted+respected+enjoyed+adored her. And it's a good thing#it doesn't cheapen his grief. I feel like people must think it does which is why I constantly see bad unnecessary takes about them#it just means that Martha was SO important to him and it's ok. they had a killer friendship outside the unrequited minutiae and it's ok#there's even a comic where 'someone' makes him believe she's Martha and he makes her change her appearance because “it's still too raw”#Just saying you don't say that sort of thing about someone whose existence you're all blasé about#Martha already gets fucked by the narrative in enough ways without people totally missing her significance in the Doctor's life#you don't have to ship them to appreciate them on a deeper level#anyway. fuck. if you actually read all of these then I'm so sorry#creating this blog has taught me that there are only like two people who feel the same way about tenmartha matters and it’s fine 😂#but if I didn’t give myself an outlet it would probably form a tumor SO there we are then

Seeing that one post going around that's just basically 'say if you ever read fanfictions that are better than published books' and it's like, yeah of course there are some that are better, because some people are genuinely good writers, but also there are good books too, and then seeing people say things like, 'I have never read a good book I only prefer fanfictions' and it's just?? Seek out some books? There are so many different kinds, for so many different things. It just sounds like you're reading for an easy serotonin boost than really engaging with the work.
People who write books and people who write fanfics have one thing in common: they write. They are doing the act of writing, and each person is going to have different styles and come at it with different experiences. Also, if your favorite fanfic writer comes out with an original work that's not just filing the serial numbers off, will you read it? Or are you only there because they're writing your favorite characters from another piece of media (which might even be from a book?). Speaking as a fanfic writer who is happy when people compliment my writing, please read some books I'm begging. Not everything is from booktok.
#shrimpy rambles#I am probably looking into this too hard but sometimes people are weird about fanfic#it's this amazing thing but also they will never read anything outside of this author's portfolio that is not about their fave m/m ship#I also just think you become a better writer by reading from different things#which includes novels that aren't just YA#I just also really like some old classic novels like the scarlet letter and edgar huntly which are not perfect but fascinating to me#and I have also definitely read completely awful novels too#but I think you learn something from them still#anyway this is also a reminder to myself to read more books because I've been slacking#I love fanfic and I love writing it but that wouldn't have happened if I never read books#even those outside my favorite genre#read some books plz

Ever think you’ll do a physical print of time and time again?
Yes! I'm actively working on it now that I'm on hiatus ^^ I have 2/4 books for season 1 ready to go!
I'm planning to launch a kickstarter early next year for the first four books! (The pirate arc, the summer camp arc, the ghost hunting arc, and the vampire hunting arc)
I'm planning for each book to be $25, and I'll ship them out over the course of a year. (shipping in the us will be about $7 per book, and internationally it'll be around $16 per book!)
Each book is 100-150 pages and 8.3x5.8 inches ^^
I've got some really cute and exciting things planned for it!
Consider this the official announcement and a warning that it'll be pretty pricey! I'll have themed merch bundles offered as well (partially pictured) so it can add up fast! If you want all 4 books, expect to spend about $150 including shipping!
#kickstarter#queer comics#graphic novels#asks#distantwave#I'm so so so so excited about it!!!#there's like#no way I can think of to get the cost down though...#I guess that kind of comes with it being 4 books ;_;#so I'm trying to warn people early so people can save up#IF it's possible#I recognize $150 is like. a lot of money#I wish I could make it less#in a year or so you can buy them all together and then shipping would be like.... half..........#so still like $120 :( sorry

What am I?
[KDJ]: Me?
I've replaced my missing parts with all the pieces I could find. It did not matter if it was discarded, left around; it mattered not that it was scratched and scuffed from rolling on the ground.
It still kept the heart beating. It mattered not that it was not my own.
[YJH]: And me?
I kept myself together by pulling memories apart. I placed them in little jars and I gave those containers names, I've even numbered them. They keep me company, even now, and I keep with me all my mistakes. I placed all my time into broken-up toys, pieces that were once me.
I am kept alive when I am torn apart.
[HSY]: And me?
I can keep myself alive when I choose to forget. If I just let go of something, I get to hold onto something else. It may be my memories, my limbs, it may be the world I once lived in. But at least it kept me alive. It got me out of that locked box, when I let go of part of me.
I got to move on when I let go.
. . .
But now, I wonder...
What part of all I've lost, gained, changed...
What of me is real? What part of me is me?
What am I?
Am I the same? Or something new?
#orv#omniscient reader's viewpoint#omniscient reader novel#kim dokja#yoo joonghyuk#han sooyoung#ship of theseus#clears throat#you ever heard of the ship of theseus?#is that still funny#you know how yoohankim are all made up of broken pieces of themselves? yeah#you know how they're constantly breaking themselves apart for one another? also yeah#edited bc I wanted it to make more sense#I hope I succeeded#it kind works for all of them#but yk

Okay you all I need to ask you something and I need all of you to be honest with me
If I made a comic for a spooky month au that has a "choose your own adventure" kind of dynamic, would any of you be interested? And before answering please read because the " " are there for a reason
The comic for this au can very easily be just another comic without all of this, but given that is based of a visual novel (Yes, another Rachel novel don't judge me I'm hyperfixiated) and this one has been on my mind for longer than the MIR/Doomed au, I got the idea to make it interactive somehow
The dialogue options all will end up leading to the main story and they're there only to get different interactions in a short amount of time, as well as choosing location will eventually lead you to the place you NEED to go to progress the story, only the final options will determine what ending is gonna happen All of this will happen on polls, not all the comic parts will have polls only in the ones where you need to chose something, since I'm not fast at drawing comics and will split it to make it easier for me Every option will eventually be made once all endings are posted, going for the second most voted (in cases where there's 3 options) or the second one (for the ones with 2)
The au is based on Cold Front and I recommend to play it or watch a gameplay of it if you haven't as I will be changing multiple things, it's based on the story but the characters will behave differently, this is set in Halloween instead of winter and most importantly, there's a third ending and more dialogue options
This is smaller than another au I plan to use this same dynamic because this one has a linear story and the endings are something that you can easily go back to with one option, meanwhile "A candy store after dark" is gonna be WAY messier as the options can affect the whole story, and If you all are here is because you enjoy my weird antics and ideas for some reason, figured I might give this a shot and see if it's of interest
With no further do, I'll leave you with the references and the poll, it will stay up until nest monday, I'll give it time and in anyway I'm going on vacation so I will see when I come back
#Of course this is a whole au not just the novel#The comic is just focusing on the same problem#These are just my regular versions of adult skid and pump#And no they're not older than in the original sm on the kids reference I just have an easier time drawing them like that#Anyways you can just take this as my version of how I think spooky month would be like in 2024 or smth#Expect me to draw them often#spooky month#spooky month au#spooky month skid#spooky month pump#This one au is not fireskulls but feel free to ship it#I mean with the original characters canonically there was intention of them being together said Rachel#But the ship is still fairly popular and I ship it too#So the ship isn't canon and if I made ship fanart is still not canon but feel free to do so#Ugh it's 3 am I'm not thinking right better go to sleep so I can get at least 6 hours#at best#Latjack's sily art

"Can I?"
Something twists in Toey's chest and it hurts. For all of his history of running away from his own feelings, P'Q, now that they are together, now that he is Toey's, is nothing but direct. He's gentle - he always has been - leading Toey softly forward in their relationship, asking if Toey is comfortable at every step. He looks at Toey so softly, his gaze lit by starlight.
Why does this hurt?
Maybe it's all too fast for Toey. He feels a little guilty for considering it, especially after his 2-year lovesickness being the cause of the entire scheme to get them together. Maybe it's just like when they kissed in the haunted house - Toey starts to panic when he isn't sure about what's going to happen next. But P'Q is being direct. The secluded guest room, the dim lights - it's extremely clear what he's talking about.
It's been too long. They've been standing in silence. What did Toey do then? Close his eyes? Lean in to kiss P'Q? Does that mean yes? Does he really want to say yes?
"we don't have to if you're not ready. Come on, toey, let's go to sleep"
The twisting feeling is still there, but when his boyfriend takes his hand, Toey doesn't hesitate to wrap his arms around him. P'Q smells like paint thinner and cigarettes. Toey molds himself around his body, pulling himself in so tightly until his heart starts to steady again. P'Q's long fingers card through Toey's hair, and before he knows it, he's fast asleep.
#one dialogue and ten seconds of screentime is all i ask 😭😭😭😭 alloace toey i would have done you so well 🙏🙏🙏🙏#why the FUCK#did they do us all like that#ppl online saying qtoey got boring and they are RIGHT#you know what would have made it better???? ACE TOEY LIKE IN THE NOVELS#honestly fuck them#like the ship still reads very strongly as aspec (demi) and ofc ace people can still!!!! have sex!!!!!#but if they bothered to explore the ways that toey being ace would work in their dynamic it would!!!! actually be so interesting#and do NOT tell me that they couldn't pull it off i know satang has it in him to pull off guilty/apologetic/anxious thing#asexual guilt!!!! is such a real thig actually#idk man i can't rest until i prove to everyone that this is how it should have been#we are the series#qtoey#q#toey#we are the series episode 15

every day I am in Agony over the fact that widomauk is the first kiss of the campaign, Caleb kissed Molly back in the very end, the literal last scene between King and Caleb is them flirting and King is still so utterly enamored with his Magician, and I just wish...there was any mention of those feelings in the wrap up or a q and a or anything. Absolutely begging Taliesin to tell us what Molly/King feels for Caleb--why he chose to make King's last moments on screen him being explicitly attracted to Caleb, and whether we will ever get to see him revisit those feelings one day...
#widomauk#it just. makes me so sad#i want to hear taliesin talk about king's feelings so bad. what caleb meant to him. why he went with That as his final scene in the campaig#and i feel like we've gotten to hear liam talk so much about caleb's unrequited feelings for jes and things like that and I just...wish#we got some sort of conversation like that from tal or liam#also the 'CALEB. SOFTNESS AND LIGHT' COMMENT THAT MOLLY HAS ABOUT HIM IN THE NOVEL. OR THE FACT LUCIEN#AND KING AND MOLLY HAVE ALL FLIRTED WITH CALEB AT SOME POINT--#caleb being the person who fought the hardest to get molly back in that final fight. how he kept reaching for him and breaking through#lucien's control#and what that means--#i dont know if i should feel silly or ridiculous for hoping we get to see taliesin address those feelings one day#but like...maybe this ship just hits different from someone who watched early c2 live and the way this ship was treated then#the episode right before molly died being so full of little adorable moments between the two. all the potential#seeing them get the first kiss of the campaign#matt even making their little minis kiss--#all the missed potential and loose ends and the feelings they never got to share#would give anything to hear taliesin talk about everything king still feels for the nein#but especially his magic man ;; —

I know a lot of ppl aren't comfortable with seeing canon/canon ships with their f/os but rexwalker is honestly such a comfort for me 😭😭
Like? It's there, Anakin is so in love with rex it makes him look stupid, and he doesn't even realize it. It also helps that Ani is my best friend so you know 💖🫶💖
#jane journals#self insert talk#💙 oh captain my captain 💙#🔥 general hothead 🔥#i just queued up some fanart for it so its got me thinking about it 😭😭#all the parts in tcw novelization where anakin is down ATROCIOUS#like BROTHER I FEEL YOU I UNDERSTAND I AM YOU!!!!#i still meant to draw a poly ship of us#i mean brea and ani would be metamours and not together but still#i love them 🥺🫶🫶#what ELSE ELSE helps is that anakin IS A FUCKING ADULT AROUND REX'S AGE WHEN THEY MEET

“Kindly consider the question: what would your good do if evil did not exist, and what would the earth look like if shadows disappeared from it? Shadows are cast by objects and people. Here is the shadow of my sword. Trees and living beings also have shadows. Do you want to skin the whole earth, tearing all the trees and living things off it, because of your fantasy of enjoying bare light? You’re a fool.” - The Master and Margarita
#aaaand here we are with the ship moodboard#I think I’ll call them wolzebub#yes I can tell that they’re rotting my brain that I’m like my 4 year old self smashing my dolls head together screaming ‘now kiss!!’ but#but they’re truly a refreshing dynamic ngl#I usually write my ocxcanon ships with an underlining opposites attract kinda thing#like opposing values opposing characteristics opposing concepts and such#and the ship itself is basically a particle collider when it comes to writing interactions#but this girlie and woland are different parts of the same thing they’re both the devil#the seven deadly sins are basically the seven faces of the devil because all cardinal sins come from pride#yesterday I spent a lot of time to somehow figure out which sin woland represents because even tho the novel calls him satan#satan and lucifer are not the same entity they don’t even represent the same sin#satan is the sin of wrath while lucifer is the sin of pride and woland is rather proud than wrathful#his goal throughout the novel is basically exposing cowardice and false knowledge which is much more fitting for lucifer to do#anyway back to these two#shipping them is like shipping unohana with kenpachi but they’re old money and doesn’t want to fight each other to death#I mean they do fight a bit but it’s just play fighting and bickering#bc I apparently can’t ship anything if there’s no throwing vicious insults wrapped with a coquette bow and said in a loving manner#there’s still some respect for each other buried really deep like REAL deep#ok maybe not that deep#bc as I said you say something bad about one of them you’re dead you’re dead meat#I can make such a cunty yet hella gothic playlist for them#also I wanted a quote from the tragedy of man but the screenshot fucked up the whole thing I had to scrap it#my moodboards :3

Why do you ship Jill and Carlos? Just curious cause I always thought people liked Chris and Jill.
The way they were portrayed in the RE3 Remake really made me love them, their dynamic, the way their personalities mesh, and their banter, with Carlos being more playful and Jill more serious (but secretly loving his humor). I also love how protective they became of each other, the fact that Carlos spent roughly 12 hours roaming through the hell-fest that was Raccoon City trying to find Jill when the most logical thing to do would have been to assume Jill was dead at some point and move on, and yet he kept searching. Plus the way he risked his life taking her to the hospital, finding the vaccine, and protecting her until she recovered. On the other hand, Jill who had reasons to distrust someone who was working for Umbrella didn't take very long to care for Carlos and trust him (the game basically told us that Jill would refuse to kill Carlos even if he was infected but would have shot herself in the same situation). Also, it doesn't hurt that they make a damn hot couple. 😎🤭
#i'm currently reading the sd perry re3 novel because of them 🥺#chris and jill are still a very popular ship though#i prefer valeveira but then again i also prefer carlos over chris so 🤷♀️#asks#anon

reread adventures of john blake after maybe six years... it is always unfortunate when something does not live up to how cool you thought it was when you were younger.
#the captain's library#it still has Great Potential but I have much more of an appreciation for the Craft of the graphic novel now than I did in 2017#dear mr philip pullman maybe this one just should have been a Regular novel.#and of course I mean no insult to fred fordham#but [hands to mouth] YOUR PANELING IS UNINTERESTING AND YOUR CHARACTER DESIGN PHILOSOPHY IS INDISTINCT#like. I know he is pulling from the bd and golden age comic tradition more than modern graphic novels but Even So#you've got to make your characters' body language and design suitably distinct that they read well even at a distance!#which is something that many of those illustrators do Very Very well!#I would be SO incredibly a fan of this if it was done in say a corto maltese style with those sharp inks and powerful spotblacks...#despite coming from very different backgrounds and times most of the ship's crew are built on a very similar plan#and also we don't spend enough time with them to develop the fact that they are Interestingly time travelers!#look I Really like the idea of a time-hopping ghost ship picking up its crew across the centuries out of people lost at sea#but also if you do that I want to see how a roman engineer and a man from 1880s china and one of nelson's foremast jacks INTERACT#let us spend time with them! let us look at what the dynamic IS on the mary alice! because they all have such potential!#anyway ENOUGH WHINGING. I should simply write my own book.

my favourite headcanon for glass sorenson is that she came down with farm station and watched them murder luke right in front of her eyes (or kidnap him or something cause i love tragic lovers but she deserves to be happy) and so she’s one of the first people to join pike’s militia and turn vengeful, and her best friend wells (he lives too cause this is my canon now) is trying to get through to her but she won’t hear it cause all she wants is justice and to get her oldest friend clarke griffin out of polis and away from harm (they’re friends too fight me on this i dare you)
(also sorry about the tags i didn’t know i had that rant in me 😭😭)
#the 100#the 100 novels#kass morgan#glass sorenson#please explain to me why she wasn’t in the show#actually dont i dont want excuses 😭😭#shes my babyyyyy#and this is my favourite headcanon for her#i think that after everything that happened to her she deserved to stab someone#i also think having someone explicitly in the younger main cast who was affected by the farm station massacre would help highlight why they#refused to trust grounders and wanted vengeance for what happened to them#because it feels like the show was going for a whole black and white youre wrong thing#which sucked#cause you literally hear hannah and pike say that the CHILDREN who were just PLAYING IN THE SNOW were the first to die#and then the writers are like but how DARE they want retribution#also im sorry but lexa was so stupid to think the ice queens body would be enough#everyone was so for jus drein jus daun but when they demanded the grounders responsible it was literally never adressed#and they didn’t even see the ice queen die#lexa just wanted to hand them her body and be like okay its done now stop causing problems#also she did literal shit to help because a whole ass SEASON later some of farm station are still alive being held as SLAVES by the ones#who attacked them#and if the main group didnt go after the ship for ita resources they would have died their in praimfaya or died through the labour#like please explain to me why the writers just brushed this aside and then made BELAMY the guy who lost someone he loved and was manipulate#the villain of that season like the fuck????????#not saying they had a right to go around massacring villages im not an idiot that was too far but the people who are like oh they were#murdering children how could they 😔😔#like the grounders didnt kill children FIRST and get NO FUCKING CONSEQUENCES pisses me off to no end#also im really supposed to see skaikru as villains fot wanting vengeance when literally 99.99% of the grounders we meet wanted it and the#ones who didnt DIED for chosing peace because the rest refused to abadon violence like titus and lincoln literally say lexa would DIE for#wanting peace and changing her ways cause her people would MURDER her and yet skaikru were evil for wanting justice
