Hey all! So, if you've been following me for any amount of time, you probably are already familiar with recent life events, and how badly American Airlines (fuck you) has screwed me over in making me have to leave my sweet little tabby cat, Bumper, home with my family in the states.
@territorial-utopia and I have been looking into pet travel services, because once I apply for a residency visa, I can't travel, and I can't really depend on my family to lend a hand in helping bring my cat here...
So! That's where all of you come in! I've got all sorts of commissions available, from my basic commission sheet, to specialty "borrower-ify" commissions, to even some stickers I've made, available on ko-fi! I know times be rough for alot of us right now, so I don't want to just ask for donations; hopefully you can help out (even if it's just sharing!) and get some nice art in return for your support!!
#my art#digital art#shop#irl stuff#commissions#signal boost#every little bit helps!#it's been weighing heavily on my mind since I got here#and ofc money is tight in general#but pet travel services are EXPENSIVE#and they don't even cover everything needed??#like#we're looking at upwards of 3k#and truthfully#I'm not sure I'll be able to really make up that kind of money...#but I've got to try anyway.#my cat has been such a cornerstone of my life#as I'm sure any pet owner would agree#I've been meaning to pick up commissions anyway to help pay for stuff here with Terri anyway#but now I really need to buckle down#anyway#if you've read this far into the tags#thank you for bearing with me#and for any and all support#I just need to hang in there and crack down on work#but also take it easy hah

ok I'm pivoting to octopath traveler 2 now. I think we should making more conspiracies theories about the areas/npcs in the game because I feel like that would be cool and fun and interesting
#im using words#octopath traveler 2#there is so many unanswered stuff going on in the background of ot2 and I love it#wellows manor is a big one of course#but also like the forsaken graveyard. why the FUCK is it just there. below Montwise#is it where they put all the guys who died in the underground tournament??#can you tell i've been watching a lot of zelda theory videos......lmao#octopath 2 map i love you foreverrrrerer

One of these days I will watch all of Transformers G1 in a confused haze.
#I'm almost positive I've seen most of it#I don't think I actually watched the episode where Seaspray falls in love with a mermaid#and he turns into a merman but he still has his gimmicky bubbly robot voice the whole time#but I feel like I know the important parts#oh and there's the episode where Red Alert is infected with a paranoia virus and the fanfiction decided that was his entire personality#and the one person he decided to trust was Starscream and anyone who knows anything about#Transformers#knows this was a bad move#and then there's the episode where they make a remote controlled Optimus Prime and have it blow up a remote controlled Starscream to#make sure the Autobots trust him and then I think they have the fake Optimus race the real Optimus to figure out which is which#And then there's the episode where Starscream and Megatron sneak into the Autobot base with their invisibility spray to turn the Autobots#evil and I think that's the episode where Optimus gives Bumblebee a hug that was nice#and there's my personal favorite which has everyone travel to the middle ages and Starscream takes over a castle and it turns out dragons#are a thing#Oh and then there's the one where Optimus gets blown to pieces and his parts are used as turrets and stuff and the Autobots have to fight#through it all to gather it up and rebuild him and I think they fought an alligator but I might be making that up#There's also the one where the Decepticons convince the humans that the Autobots have been the true evil all along and that they should#be shot into space and the Autobots go along with it because they respect human laws#And there's the one where... I can't actually remember the name#anyway he wanted to build something really cool and Optimus thought it could be used for evil and said no :(#but the Decepticons said they'd help him and then shockingly tried to use it for evil

While I'm in a rental and I know it can't be guaranteed to stay, I'm going to plant Richmond Birdwing Vine (pararistolochia praevenosa), Purple Violet (viola betonicifolia), and Native Violet (viola hederacea).
They're the host plants for the Richmond Birdwing and Australian Fritillary butterflies, and I keep seeing that post about a man in America who helped out significantly I think with the California pipevine swallowtail.
There's so much I can't do to help with the environment, but planting a vine I'll need to trim in my own yard alongside a handful of other native plants and having a bit of a veggie garden helps myself, my family, and some animals in the area.
#the solarpunk stuff I see is#well it's frequently all art#and when it's not it's things that feel unattainable/insurmountable to do on top of my daily life#I've a full time job and I have to factor in travel to and from that job (public transport here is shit so it takes about an hour each way)#and then maintaining the house in my free time on what little energy I have left#it feels insane to think 'well I also want to grow more food and store it and make a solar dehydrator and make more food from scratch and#get in touch with people in the community that are like minded. and get mad at our local government for its shitty maintenance of the lake#that has been cautioned against people swimming in it bc it'll make you sick#and this and that and everything else and visible mending also#fuck#so#I'm planting some new plants and impatiently waiting for my tomatoes and that's enough for now 😌

secret timeloop enjoyers when it's time for the secret timeloop to be revealed and scenes begin to replay from a different perspective with new context

#teeth.txt#watching pmmm for the first time rubbing my hands together evilly#this also happens in triangle (2009). spoilers for triangle (2009)#also pmmm reminds me a lot of undertale in a lot of ways i'm curious to know if toby fox has said anything about being influenced by it#i know he watches anime and stuff so i think it's likely/nearly certain#although maybe pmmm is referencing some other thing i don't know about idk#anyways i've been watching soooo many time loop/travel movies/shows recently#it's such a peak trope for me esp when it's a groundhogs day doing the same thing over and over again type of story

Sometimes all you need is a good ol' coffee shop au tbh.
#i'm cold and in a mood to be fluffed 🥺 and angsted#the one good thing about holiday season is the amount of coffee shops/ bakery/ otherwise fluff and angst fanfics#it's like hallmark movies but 10000x better and they actually get to fuck and curse and act like real people#my bts ffic archive is like 50% exclusively holiday-themed fics lmao. they are cosy! and sexy !#like yeah give me grumpy yoongi in the midst of snow and baking cookies 🥺#if there's a little exes to lovers thrown in??? or enemies to lovers?? WOOOOOOOOOO YEAH#you can take my X Reader fanfiction out of my cold dead hands. leave yeen alone 😤#(yeen is y/n)#anyways. i am in fact not reading anything rn as it's very late and i'm STILL sick and can't sleep but also reading rn is no bueno#but i am making a list of the things i need to catch up on + want to indulge in#since i'm travelling next week and will finally have time to read#wanna catch up with at least ditf and edging fitness before i see sleep token. because after that i will have NO TIME in december#and i prefer to re-read my fav cosy stuff to shake off the Holiday Big Sad#which actually isn't too bad this year but maybe because i've been BIG SAD for a few months now and i can't even tell the difference anymore#ahem. ANYWAYS! let's not go into that#hmmmmmmmm i know i'm using this as a diary at this point but! if anyone's actually nosy enough to have read through all this#here's a little surprise: ✨🎁✨#🦦🥏🦫 <- an otter and a beaver playing frisbee 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹#darya talks to herself

The love of the Wanderer is to wanderers.
#em draws stuff#travel light#this image has been about a year in the making (I wanted to draw it when I first read it but I only got to it now)#my thoughts on travel light are. well they are this image primarily.#been a while and a while since I drew in this style and it feels GOOD to be doing it again!!#wish I'd figured out a way to fit steinvor into the composition but it was a hard squish even to include tarkan der (and he's very tiny)#the way I've done the mountains are purposefully referencing one of the earlier covers of the hobbit as I love jirt's painting style#and it seemed apt for various things about the way travel light exists and the kinds of things it has to say#it is right on the edge of where legend meets life when it comes to depicting early medieval europe and it's. well. read it actually.#book that makes you want to listen to 'to holmgard and beyond' by turisas except exactly backwards#(in the varangian way they are going the other direction and also they are much more (to put it as halla would) dragonish about it)#song I first heard in the context of an absolutely wild 8tracks playlist in 2015 which changed my music taste forever. anyway.#really I must read more naomi mitchison except that no library in the entire state of california appears to have a copy of the big house :/#anyway anyway. if I ever get my own copy of this book I Will be rebinding it to have this for a cover I like it so very much

a large amount of time I've been spending on -untitled undefined scope original fiction project- since the last time I posted about it has been trying to develop the protagonist concept I came up with last summer or whatever into like, a character that would feel real and era appropriate.
it's fun research to do. naturally a lot of the details I assigned to her are things that I already think are cool, so it's been a lot of fun trying to trace her traits back through the relatively recent past, getting reminded of how much things have changed, or where the gaps in my intuition are, and then doing a flurry of reading to get a sense for exactly how someone like her and the people around her could have happened and what her life was probably like leading up to her present day. hopefully this results in some good good verisimilitude.
#I wrote a short story from her perspective over the holidays and then didn't know how to continue it#and then I got distracted by real life stuff for a few months#I forget if I posted about that#and then I've been picking through archive dot org for the last few weeks looking at this stuff#the last big rabbit hole was trying to get a better feel for era appropriate ts/tv subculture#the current one I'm looking at is how she would've gotten into language learning and how that would've worked#nettle has been prodding me about the setting thing lately so I've been thinking about that more too#probably the biggest hurdle by far is figuring out how I want to play that#and how I want the thing to be divided up#since the original coc scenario I'm developing this out of is centered on a flight from LA to honolulu#and the airport dungeon was definitely meant to be a hook for a larger campaign#some amount of it is going to cover protag lady's failed life in LA and some of it is going to be worse things happening in hawaii#but it's like. how much do I want to balance it one way or the other#and realistically how much does the aesthetics of 20th century air travel add to the story#besides me personally thinking it's compelling ofc#a lot of what I find compelling about hawaii is that it's an east/west cultural crossroads and realistically that's also true of socal#and I can wax poetic about socal as much as I want without worrying all that much about mishandling something#and there's also a lot of socal specific history along similar parallels to pull from that I'm more familiar with#I guess it comes down to whether curiosity re: 'doing it right' is enough of a motivator to do the increased amount of research#which I guess it has so far with the above character details. so hopefully that will continue#but it also feels like using machine translation a bit yknow. it's hard to know how effectively I'll be able to sanity check#although depending on where this goes I might be able to get other people involved to sensitivity read down the line#with most of the creative things I do I just have a tendency to always rely really heavily on figuring things out myself#I also want protag lady to have a Cool Car and idk how to get that from point a to point b narratively#this is like an entire second or third post's worth of tags but I don't feel like unfucking this so whatever. suffer. I guess.

thinking about my octopath ocs and. man. how did amarynn end up going from the extremely loose base concept of 'a thief character who doesn't have as terrible of experiences with the fellow thieves from their past as either of the canon thieves' to this. liar girl who is defined by her bonds with others. who trusts almost no one but would literally die for those she does trust. girl who exists to protect. would do anything to save those she cares about (and/or desperately denies caring about) because she cannot stand to imagine what existing without them would be like. not just a knife in the dark but a shield in broad daylight. a knife in the dark so she still has people to shield in broad daylight. to the point where half her chapters revolve around protecting/saving people and the main plot mcguffin in her story is literally a shield. which she steals from a friend but still goes back to protect that same friend herself anyway. she may have lied her way into it but she's still the one with the tournament arc, signed on as a support fighter to aid and protect her chosen companion. loyal con artist indeed
#✨🔩✨#there's a reason amarynn's the one with the befriend path action. is what i'm saying#switching hildegard's default weapon from sword to spear + amy's default weapon from dagger to sword might be one of the best decisions i'v#made for either of them actually. for both visual design and what other characterization spiraled out of it#amarynn with her fake friendly front she presents people with that isn't actually as fake as she thinks it is#swords are larger + more dangerous than daggers but paradoxically seem safer bc they're harder to hide. and see? she's not hiding anything#but also the classic pairing of swords + shields + how that relates to amarynn as a protector even though she tries to deny it +#pretend her protectiveness is as fake as her smile. she's just looking out for herself. nothing more#and hildegard a common mercenary with a commoner's weapon#learned to fight by picking up whatever sharp thing was on hand to protect herself + her brother#growing into the role only to turn around years later and realize no one sees the woman she is anymore. just the spear#not even her brother. who she hasn't spoken to in years bc she's been too busy traveling + fighting#but hildegard could have a whole other post of her own. this is an amarynn post#but seriously between piper leaving the church in his ch1 to chase revenge + oliver being a stagehand + amarynn's whole. *gestures at post*#i would not be surprised if i shared all my oc stuff + people thought i was deliberately trying to make them all as far away from the typic#*typical image of their jobs as possible. which i wasn't. but i do really like the characters i've ended up with#oh and can't forget cassius + tiphania whose base character concepts were literally 'what if a guy like one of the canon merchants' ch1 bos#*bosses was the protagonist + had to learn to be a better person over the course of his story' and 'what if apothecary but not selfless. wh#*what if she had a deeply selfish reason for her journey actually'#well cassius's is less different from merchants in general + more different from the octopath merchants specifically#which was the point of him. but still#wow this was a longer tag ramble than planned. might as well namedrop olympia + teo for completion's sake at this point#i should probably like. make a post actually properly introducing them all at some point#but some of them/their stories are more developed than others + i'd feel bad not having as much for the less developed ones#maybe i could just give the briefest summaries of what each of them/the starting points of their stories are about#but then that runs into the opposite problem of How in the World do i condense piper's whole deal into a few short sentences??#anyway hey have i mentioned i have ocs

i gotta think up some goldmoon facts
#i have a lot of like. facts. but i haven't put them into Words yet#also sorry. there are Nouns. but a lot of them are place names due to the whole thing being about a journey#i am a little picky about how they move around the continent. i don't even want to draw any fixed illustrations until i have#an idea of what their traveling looks like. i've had many internal debates abt how they carry things around#ocposting#sometimes i just give up and static over that in my mind so i can come up with character stuff#but not enough. so i usually need to be prompted to think about Characters#also yes i Do have a map i've been filling it out as i come up with things

I see some people disliking the ending with the time stuff due to it going against season ones message. While i understand, i think i need to see how the time stuff actually plays out next season… Or maybe i just think there’s ahem worse writing choices this season
yeah i mean that's valid! people already didn't like season 2 because of how different it was from season 1.
but like...unpopular opinion, but season 1 was no masterpiece lol. it was cute, i guess, but i've definitely seen this kind of thing done better before (these slice of life, individual stories). what i really enjoyed about the series was lg and cxs and their relationship; and i came to really love ql too, and how she was like a big sister to cxs.
but (and this is ALSO unpopular) I really enjoyed the thread about emma back in s1, and the more exciting mystery/thriller stuff. i found that fun and exciting. so when s2 was more of THAT i was excited. i agree with everyone else that it was executed poorly and the writing was sloopy; but imo it's no downgrade from s1 or anything. kind of just more of the same? i was just bummed there was less of a focus on my two favorite characters.
BUT THEN THEY CONFIRMED A FAN-FAVORITE THEORY AND MADE THE FOCUS LG AND CXS AGAIN SO I DON'T GIVE A SHIT LC IS THE BEST SHOW OF ALL TIME 10/10 NO COMPLAINTS
#asks#to each their own!#i don't feel like this season was like#significantly worse than s1#maybe a little more poorly put together but i feel like that was largely the pacing#can't wait for 3!!#also not to make me sound like a bitch or anything but...#i feel like a lot of lc fans dont like#watch a ton of other anime and stuff#and like....maybe that's why they like s1 so much? bc they haven't seen that kind of thing before?#this makes me seem really mean . i don't intend it that way#but anyway i've watched entirely too much anime and so its just#idk. have seen it been done better#even amongst time travel shows! (please watch steins;gate)

I am not a happy camper right now :(
Gentle reminder to not send me spoilers in asks. I've made it abundantly clear that I've only played Unwound Future : I don't know anything about the other games, the movie, the manga or the anime and I don't wanna know. I'd like to discover it by myself, please.
#I am not like#Actually mad mad#Because I know anon meant well and this probably isn't a BIG spoiler#But I'm still deleting this ask#I've been avoiding most spoilers and I need people to understand and respect that#Once again. Not mad at anon. Probably a honest mistake it's fine#Could have been anyone but I'm jumping on the occasion#(Also as for the actual ask I guess he would ?? But also you never know what may happen)#(Prison isn't like traveling and going on adventures especially PL adventures so idk)#My stuff

((The strong association between Flynn and eyes---from the iconography on his clothes and the planchettes he carves, certain veves, the extreme focus on his gaze when Kariom takes the photo of him and Bo during Tigla-Dera (which Kariom even comments on when you examine his half of the photo later), the emphasis on his right eye when stabbing Kariom and the equal emphasis in this promo image (it's obviously impossible to miss the photo being centered over the right eye and only the right eye, plus the knife makes it a damn good closed circle), the fact that out of every single character Flynn has some of the most noticable (if not the most) eye changes/shifts when speaking to him and how it's a clear focal point for his sprites, the slight discrepancy re; the color of his eyes in general, etc---really hits hard when you realize that he's possessed by an eyeless creature that covets eyes and those are what it possesses, accepts in trade, and so on.))
#the crown of leaves spoilers#I'm not mentioning the trade with Serban bc that's too obvious/direct and the rest of this stuff was emphasized since the beginning#it's always been a thing for him and the layers are only getting deeper and I love that#possession mention tw#;;ooc: commentary (flynn)#and no; the eye thing with the Traveler isn't related to any of this; that's always been a thing for her and has a different catalyst sts#the same emphasis is also attached to Kariom (as I've said before) but the reasons are different#especially considering he's trying to stop the creature in question; but that's not even the half of it#the crown of leaves chapter 2 act 3 spoilers
