Shisui and Momo having a chat!

This is for my Epoch au, a three way crossover with Naruto, MHA, and Miraculous. The general idea is that it’s very post post ghibli-esque apocalypse, where a long time in the past, something happened(probably something akin to Jurassic park) and dinosaurs were released across the globe. Humans managed to collect in protected cities in glass pods, which eventually evolved into their current form, still cities in glass pods, but now arranged in pod groups with a protected area in the middle for farming and raising domesticated animals without the threat of dinosaurs. Or as much threat anyway. The cities are protected by magical girls(not actually always girls, that’s just the job title, like fireman).

Shisui is a magical girl, and if you check his eyes, they have multiple white eyeshines in them while my typical eye style only calls for one, like in Momo’s eyes. This is because his eyes are actually augmented, the name for robotic parts. His hands up to his forearms and legs up to just above his knee are also augmented, but those aren’t visible because they’re pretty good at mimicking human skin. It’s much harder to mimic eyes, they always are a little oddly shiny. The wings are also augments, hooked into a spinal augment. They’re whats referred to as a bonus augment, something outside human standard. The red part of the wings is pure energy, which he can make look however he wishes. The red glowy thing in his chest is what powers all of this, a gem taken from a dinosaur and carefully chipped and carved into the right size and shape. It provides the magic to power all augments. It normally would just look like a red gem implanted on his sternum, but he is currently using it to make his outfit look like that. He’s actually wearing a simple protective bodysuit, which is standard for magical girls. They just generally like to make their outfits look more fun with magic. It’s manipulating light and energy. It does have an actual function, in that it can help shield them a bit better, and makes it easier to actively use the magic and shift it into other forms. Shisui specializes in what you would expect an Uchiha to expect in, making fire. He’s also quite skilled at boosting his own physical performance to make him significantly faster, as well as forming hard energy weapons using a similar technique to the outfit thing. Most magical girls cannot do all three methods of magic use with anywhere near as much skill as Shisui can, he’s just special like that. As one would expect from Shisui.

Now onto Momo! This also heavily involves Shisui, whoops, as you may note she is wearing an Uchiha symbol, and her clothes are also Uchiha colored. The navy in her shirt and pants matches Shisui’s navy. She is still a Yaoyorozu, for now anyway, her family is a small but powerful family in the noble class, the Uchiha clan, who leads the pod city they both live in are very fond of the Yaoyorozus. As such, Momo’s been promised her pick of the three heirs, Shisui(Mikoto’s nephew), Itachi, and Sasuke(sons of the current leaders) basically since she was born. She’s grown up with the three of them as well, so they’re all pretty good friends. She is closest with Shisui though. Technically Shisui should be out of the running as he is technically cast out from the noble class, but well, if Momo really wants to marry him, then nothing’s going to stop her.

To clarify on the Shisui is technically cast out, I have to mention a special tick of the noble class. Namely, that they consider augmentations to be a lower class thing. I’ll expand on the fashion bit in a second when I cover Momo’s outfit, but the thing with Shisui is that he ended up with an infection or something similarly bad in his eyes, they had to be removed. He didn’t want to be blind, so he elected to get augmentated eyes(they look like the sharingan right now, but he can turn that effect off and just make them normal black). The ‘correct thing’ according to the noble class would have been to just be blind and adapt to the new situation. Shisui said screw that, he wanted to see. So he was cast out. Which left him free to become a magical girl, something nobles are generally forbidden from being, as the nature of the job requires augments. He is over here living his second best life, it is only second best because Fugaku forbade him from becoming a courier magical girl, which would have been his best life. That would have been too risky though, cast out or not, he is still technically third in line and the only one left from his family line.

Now Momo’s outfit, so I don’t keep infodumping on the structure of noble society and how augments work. The big cut out on the chest of her shirt is deliberately exposing the sternum, the only place a gem can be placed. It’s basically a flaunt of not having augments. The noble class is more likely to have cut outs, while the commoners tend to just prefer plunging necklines to show off the gems, which come in a variety of pretty colors. There are clothes without the plunging necklines or cut outs, but they’re fairly uncommon, and usually if someone feels like covering that part of their chest they just wear an undershirt under their top shirt. Cut outs are less common in men’s clothing, but just because an entirely open shirt is more common. You do still see cut outs though, usually on married or engaged men to match their partner. The low slung belt is also pretty common, as is attaching feathers to it like Momo did. Feathers are a little more common on hats or in hairstyles, but Momo likes just wearing them either in the outfits, or on a belt. The feathers are red and blue for Uchiha colors again, although much brighter. They are dinosaur feathers, which are almost exclusively something for the noble class. They’re generally the only ones that can afford to have them. Some common families will have them, but they are either involved with dinosaur meat smugglers and the underground market for that stuff or they’re the families of magical girls, who can get dinosaur feathers very easily due to the fact that they come into conflict with them regularly.

The majority of dinosaurs are feathered, are all brightly colored, and males are usually sparkly when sexually mature. Yes the blue feather is sparkly, I’m sad its barely visible. The brighter colored a dinosaur is the stronger their magic is going to be, and in territorial and non-family based groups the shiniest and brightest dinosaur leads. Male or female, they tend to be equally bright even if males have more chance of being sparkly, iridescent, or another over-top effect.

Also can I say that Momo looks like a spaceship captain in that outfit. I swear that’s not the only vibes of the fashion of this au.

The other fashion vibes are pirate. It works better then you’d think.

it doesnt need to be said but its genuinely so funny how at-the-hip charles and erik are in krakoa like they really had the green light- the OBLIGATION- to be as obnoxiously close to each other as possible and abused that right to the fullest extent

[turtleblogatlast]

I am once again reiterating that Leo could and should be a figure skater because what are ice skates if not twin blades? What is dual blade swordsmanship if not a dance-like performance? Using the skates as blades themselves could let Leo make portals be his ice rink no? I rest my case. ⛸️

[ssruis]

I appreciate that mizu5 portrayed outing as a horrific & violating thing even if you’re accepted by the people you were outed to. I feel like a lot of times the approach taken is “well this character wasn’t going to come out anyways so they’re going to be better off now that someone knows” or “everyone accepted them so it was totally ok and fine in the end” or even “it’s actually a relief to this character because now they don’t need to come out” - where being outed is portrayed as something beneficial in the long run. You’re being robbed of the chance to choose when and where and if this deeply personal information gets shared and who it gets shared with, and that’s awful and damaging in itself regardless of the outcome.

A Batfam AU where instead of going to get Dick to be Robin again Tim uses necromancy to bring Jason back from the dead. He just leaves Jason on the Wayne doorstep with a 'do better this time' sticky note. Batman can't find out who did it and Tim stays his little latchkey self with semi ok but distant parents (cus canonical they weren't really abusive just not there which isn't good but they could be worse). His parents bring him along on trips but again they love him but they just leave him to do as he pleases. so in Paris he ends up still getting trained by Lady Shiva. This keeps going and Tim just keeps reviving batfam members, if they fake their deaths and Tim tracks them down to check on them. They still have no idea who their shadow is, they can't find him, Tim likes it this way. Bruce goes MIA and Red Robin happens just minus Tim actually being Red Robin. The JLA doorstep gets a passed-out Batman with a 'I can't believe I have to keep doing this shit' sticky note on his head.

cant find the post im thinking about anymore though i believe the reblogs were turned off for it anyway so gonna recap because im thinking about it again

the idea that trans men and transmasc people who were raised as girls dont suffer from an intersection of both transphobia and misogyny is frankly wild. you are talking about people who were quite literally raised with misogyny hurled towards us and think that just suddenly turns off because we """decided""" to be men??

but to then continuously call us transmisogyny exempt when you define transmisogyny as being the intersection of both transphobia and misogyny is also absolutely fucking wild

and to go EVEN FURTHER you shit talk about us using the term transandrophobia to describe our own experiences. because either you want to forcibly misgender us by saying that what we're actually dealing with is transmisogyny (WE ARE NOT WOMEN SO DONT CALL US THAT in this roundabout fucked up way) or we're transmisogyny exempt. which one is it.

why cant you all just let us have a term we can use thats not transmisogyny to tag and share our personal experiences with each other and with the world so we're not constantly fucking invisible to the rest of the queer community with the kind of specific struggles we face. because we dont want to use the term transmisogyny because IT MISGENDERS US. AND TRANSANDROPHOBIA OR ANTI TRANSMASCULINITY ARE BOTH MUCH MORE USEFUL TO SPECIFICALLY US.

Hey there, samurai! Have you been holding off on playing SMT IV? Do you want to experience SMT IV in higher resolution to better appreciate the wonderful art and intricate + detailed worldbuilding within this game? Well, look no further! The SMT IV HD Textures Mod is in the works!🎉 ◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️ 【⭐What is the SMT IV HD Textures Mod?⭐】

This is a mod made for the sole purpose of completely "remastering" SMT IV's in-game textures by hand, which includes: the UI + text, backgrounds, character portraits and other visual assets by manually recreating them in higher resolution.

By applying this mod, anybody can experience the stunning HQ detail originally present within the game that was forever lost within the game's original stunted 244p quality. 【⭐How do you manually recreate smaller detailed assets like the Character Portraits?⭐】

In contrast to other HD Mods or Remakes out there using impractical methods to "upscale" character images, our team is dedicated to redrawing the original crunchy ~300px Character Portrait sprites within the game into higher resolution by hand ourselves (using the ~7000px Key Art as a base). And sometimes, we have to redraw certain sprites entirely from scratch!

➡️As one of the artists part of the team, I'm very passionate about getting those iconic "Doi style" elements that are present throughout his SMTIV art. Personally speaking, it's an honor and a learning experience to be a part of this project in being able to faithfully recreate his work with as much respect and care as possible. That being said: We're all basically doing the work that an entire dedicated team within a company would usually do, out of love for this game! And because we want to provide something meaningful for the megaten fandom, too. If you're interested, stay tuned for more information! And don't hesitate to spread the word, too! ◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️ 【Feel free to follow the staff linked below for any updates on twitter!】 Please give lots of love to the staff! Your interest and commentary means a lot to our humble team + helps motivate us to keep going!💪 ⭐HD UI Redesign, HD Demon Scans and more⭐: 👾Vesk ⭐HD Character Portrait + HD Sprite Redraw Artists⭐: 👾Lamprey 👾Reyn - PS: I'll be posting some of my progress here on tumblr too! ➡️Twitter log of sprites I've finished so far + Works in Progress ◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️ 【Project promotional banner above and character portrait art credit within this entire post + the banner goes to myself (@megidoreyn on twitter and here on tumblr!)】

The new dunmeshi episode really reminded me that Laios was canonically fairly stoic and withdrawn before going on this little adventure. You can tell that he doesn't normally share his interests with others... I can't wait to watch him open up more to his party members during the show!

[wonderlandsakura]

Ok for some reason my brain is hyper focusing on Johnlock again like I won't regret it 2-3 business days from now when I come out of it with 5 new open AO3 tabs (out of my already 156 open AO3 tabs not counting other unfinished/unread fic/fic I've not caught up on, full disclosure) for fic that I probably won't finish reading and/or while being unable to find the. Very Specific. fic I want to read and just having like an open half-filtered tab... But Anyway.

Here's a Very Rare Johnlock Post from me lol

Imagine after all the seasons are over and Johnlock are old and have finally talked about their feelings and properly, actually, gotten officially together

(and subsequently gotten married in like 2 months cause Sherlock filled out the paperwork while John was not actually at home and then actually having a discussion about it when John finds out it happened cause Sherlock casually mentions it and actually agrees after Sherlock mentions (read: steamrolls over him, anxiously) them practically already being married by common law and just officialising it for the tax benefits... they only have a proper wedding, maybe on their/an anniversary when Mrs Hudson finds out probably 6 months later or sth and complains,, but I've gone on a tangent again)

Anyway Rosie is a teenager, with after-school activities and a phone.

I'm just imagining Sherlock dragging John out on a murder case (read: date) and deciding to feed him midway through (like always, tbh,, sth sth that post about feeding the depressed man that tends to forget to eat but I digress)

So Rosie gets a text and a voicemail from the two of them (cause Sherlock prefers to text and tell me John is not the sort to leave voicemails, like he would have put it on the voicemail machine if they had one he's so old man sometimes)

And it goes something like:

[Text from Papa]

Ragù Bolognese, Angelo's, 7pm. Hugs. -SH

[Voicemail from Dad]

"Hi honey, it's Dad.

Sorry we won't be able to make it to dinner with you, your father's got a case and you know how he gets...

Anyway, Mrs Hudson is going out tonight remember, so your Papa is booking the usual table at Angelo's for you... You still like the Spaghetti Bolognese right?

Don't worry about us, we'll eat before we get home. And the reservation is at 7, so don't be late. This will probably take a while so don't wait up either and go straight to bed young lady, you hear me?

Anyway I've got to go, loveyoubye."

Anyway I think it would be very cute, like they love and care about her, even if they're old men who laugh at crime scenes and whose ideal date is trying to catch a murderer together, and they show it by taking a moment to make sure she's fed with her favorite food even when they're busy solving crime, so yeah.

I want to be properly insane about my armored core 6 headcanons and explore more ideas and whatnot and yadda yadda but COLLEGE. IS KILLING MY FREE TIME.

Anyways, have my (human) design for Volta! (The concept art for it at least snif)

[nemo-of-house-hamartia]

ok, once more I realize that my own kindness and friendliness has been taken for implied consent, and as always, the troubles that are brewing now are connected to OCs.

So let me be clear and frank one more time, one last time, because I have NO INTENTION of going through what I went through in 2021.

While I am always immensely happy that my Original Characters are enjoyed and that they can serve as source of inspiration, they are NOT however a template for anyone to base their OCs on.

They are not something that you can take in their entirety, change whatever suits you, and then call it your own.

It doesn't work like that, especially because, and allow me to reiterate this once and for all, OCs are *immensely* personal.

They are an extention of the soul of the person that creates them.

So taking whatever suits your fancy and use it for the "aesthetic" or the "vibes" is immensely disrespectful and, dare I say, rather impertinent, especially when both characters happen to belong to the same fandom.

Now, I am not talking about certain tropes and subjects that are typical of certain genre, of course not.

We are all somehow reinveting something that's already there when we work with OCs and stories.

What I am talking about is taking certain specific idiosyncrasies that make a certain character unique, change them to suit your character, and then being SO IMPERTINENT to just call it your own and parading it around without even having the courtesy to quote the person that has inspired you, taking advantage of the fact that I am just a small creator with a small following.

This is a huge No No for me.

Huge.

I appreciate that other creators might have a different opinion or perspective when it comes to OCs, and while I do not share entirely in that, I sure as hell respect it.

But allow me to be crystal clear: if this happens to me, like it had in 2021, that's the *easiest* way to lose all respect I might harbour for you, and I seldomly get mad or angry.

I am always accomodating, always supportive, and I think I have proven it aplenty in the past few years.

But this is something that I cannot condone nor agree with.

And it's not just a matter of ethic, in this sense: it's a matter of also hurting me, and literally put my whole creative process into shamble.

It's a matter of having respect of others.

Now, you might say: who cares if they hurt you? they are characters that do not exist, just move on and have thicker skin!

Well, as I said above, for when it concerns myself, my OCs are an extention of my own soul, a way for me to formulate and explain feelings that sometimes I have a hard time let out; a way for me to actually face, fragmentize and analyze my own trauma through them;

and most important of all, they are OFTEN a love letter to both the world I am exploring with them AND my own husband and child, such as in the case of Jacob and Dorothea,for whom, as I said often in the past 5 years, I have poured A LOT from myself and my husband's own story.

You could say that it probably my fault for having bared my feelings so much and poured so much of myself into a character;

And you might be correct, because I have learned my lesson, and ever since Dorothea and Jacob, no other character has been infused with as much of my own being as they were.

but that doesn't mean that it stings any less when I see it unravels in front of my eyes.

I am tired.
