I have no beef with people who are only into something for like one or two characters but have little to no interest in the rest of the story- like I’ve been there, but seeing takes from those people about a story that’s actually genuinely well made gets stressful. Even worse when they try to “fix” it through fanfiction or something because it’s gets so obvious they’ve never bothered to think about the story beyond a single character or ship, yet are somehow convinced that canon is doing it “wrong.”

Okay now I’ve looked into the whole “Season 6B” thing and it’s extended history… my god. Russel T Davies really took literal decades of Extended Universe media and the closest thing to word of god you’ll probably ever get in the Doctor Who universe behind the shed and shot it stone cold dead huh.
#between this and the whole ‘I haven’t seen Susan since I left her in the future’ (glances at the events of to the death) thing#I am honestly kind of. angry?? at how little respect rtd seems to have for the extended universe#like. I understand that you cannot acknowledge and keep track of every single thing in the dw universe#while also writing satisfying stories for tv#it’s just impossible it can’t be done#however#there are some things that I feel if they are emotionally significant enough to a character or has been held to be collectively true#*have#for a very long time#and have been used as the basic premise for the work of many different writers and creators#as a creator myself#it just feels like insanely disrespectful to ignore all that? Y’know? Like to act like you’re the final authority on everything?#within a universe and continuity that has been forged with the fingerprints of thousands of people#idk. just feels like a dick move.#it’s probably also just because I’m a snobby eight fan but#I’m fine with the tv series ignoring / never referencing the edas or comics or whatever#just slap those bad boys in a parallel universe#but like. the audios? that’s like everything eight has other than a tv movie and a 10 minute special?#and you’re just going to say that one of the most devastating and significant things that happened to him. just. like.#didn’t occur??? hello???#I mean granted Moffat also kind of did this with the doctor’s wife in relation to the zagreus!tardis. but honestly.#I give everything pre-lucie miller a continuity slide anyway. shit got weird it was the wilderness years#I don’t care if they never acknowledge it.#anyway#this was about the second doctor? this was about the second doctor#the war games colourisation#the second doctor#season 6B#the war games

so the overall.. shape and tone of my current project is pretty much set in stone (im SO CLOSE to 50% done you guys) but i was looking through my saved videos folder on bilibili and if im gonna be doing another animatic after this one (honestly pretty likely??? given my. floruitshow obsession that doesnt seem to be going anywhere anytime soon) i REALLY want to attempt something closer to that style of animatic you see a lot on bb that employs more on elaborate editing as opposed to like............... the powerpoint presentation type beat i've got going on now
(nevermind the fact that a lot of the projects that really lodge themselves in my brain were also like collaborations between teams of people with like dedicated editor roles and i still havent fully figured out how to use lightworks. like ive also seen one man projects in this style that turn out absolutely gorgeous so i KNOW it can be done. maybe i'll go figure out if capcut is easier to use lol)
#asto speaks#re: the ProjectTM#the massive team efforts are mostly genshin animatics whaddaya know#perks of fandom big?? i guess???#that and the other noir's stultifer cantus amv i feel like i bring it up a lot but it truly genuinely haunts me#i just. love love love their art style so much and its *so* beautiful and well edited#i mean obviously im not pulling that off in the foreseeable future but#映剪/capcut is a software i saw recommended by the creator of an animatic for a rather obscure variety show i was OBSESSED with last year#saw that animatic a few days ago and it immediate lodged itself in my brain its SO GOOD. and it was a one man project!! walaoeh#op made a joke about worrying about paying for adobe after effects and realising capcut has everything they need LOL#and their project SUPER well edited and put together so idk i might check it out#im just. not fully sold on the powerpoint presentation style at least not when i do it lol#anyway if i do try something like that it'll probably be for set me free because if i *am* gonna do the robit floruitshow trinity#lets just say im gonna be procrastinating how can i make you stay for last that song is *fucking long*#its like what. 5 minutes? nabei#also i already have a few shots for set me free in mind i just need to stop... thinking about the xiao animatic for the same song lol#that project has like 8 credited artists and 6 animators comparing myself to that is just like#an exercise in pointlessly creating misery in myself

LETS GO TEAM PEARLINAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!
(Their outfits are so cunty)
Rant:
OMG YA'LLLL I HAVEN'T DRAWN SPLATOON IN A WHIIILEE BUT THAT TRAILER TODAY PAIRED WITH THE AMIIBO ANNOUNCEMENT MADE ME SO HYPE (I'm gonna be so broke) AND I JUST HAD TO DRAW SOMETHING, I REALLY PUSHED MYSELF BUT I WANTED TO FINISH THIS TODAY!!!!! I really would like any team but future to win because if it's gonna predict the next game, I don't really want one set far in the future... My Ideal would be the present so I can still see my faves!! But the past would also be cool cause I'd love to see backstory on the world and characters we love as well!!
But the Splatoon creators said the 4th game wouldn't relate to the first 3's stories soooo IDK maybe present isn't the best option??
IDK IMMA FIGHT FOR PEARLINA LIKE MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT
(Gonna be playing for the full 72 hours)

Can I get a smau about them finding out you were a jujitsu sorcerer? Like you’ve been dating 4 years and you just casually drop it out of nowhere. Like a REALL strong one too (stronger than SUKUNA strong) ps. Let me be delusional pls😍
secrets pt. 1 -> them finding out you're actually a jujutsu sorcerer -> choso kamo, kento nanami, kiyotaka ijichi, satoru gojo, suguru geto, takuma ino
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ok, first of all: thank you for this phenomenal request!!!! I love fulfilling requests, regardless of what they are because I just love interacting with you guys & sharing my writing with y'all, but it's always so fun & amazing to get a request that I'm so genuinely excited to fulfill & that inspires me as a creator, so thank you!!!
secondly: I kind of took the request & ran with it. I had a hard time coming up with a solution to like, why would they not know about it if they were dating, like that's an odd secret to keep?? So I originally planned on making this a pre-relationship kind of situation, but I have such a hard time with that, I always feel like anytime I try to create something like that it's so cringey & forced, idk??? So I'm sorry if this isn't exactly what you were asking for!
third: you'll notice the cast list for this smau is somewhat different than previous ones. I don't plan on keeping the same exact people or number of people in rotation for each post. When it comes to smau or writing in general, the last thing I want to do is force myself to create something. I typically don't add suguru to my smaus, but I felt like he really fit within this one & I had an idea for him. I didn't include any of the non-sorcerer characters because that made the most sense to me. In the future, if you'd like me to include a specific character (like suguru or sukuna, for example, who aren't in all of my smaus), just let me know; otherwise, it might be a mixed bag.
okay, fourth & final thing: this maybe only occurred to me, & if so, yay! but the whole time I was making this, I kept thinking that if this actually happened, they would probably never choose to have this conversation with you over text, & they'd probably have a much larger reaction. Those kinds of things are pretty difficult to capture in a 3-4 screenshot smau, if you know what I mean. Plus, angst is really not my bag at all; I wish it was & maybe I'll write more of it in the future, but not today.
xoxo, carlisle!
did you like it? -> here's my masterlist -> want something more? ask me for it

just a sagau genshin abt the newest banner (geo & hydro dragon my love) (the creator is self insert) LOTS OF OOC
a/n : written in rush cuz i randomly think abt this after knewing next phase banner and i hope i got both of them, i was gonna added about how i forgot ayato & childe exist when i planning on which dps from each vision should i pull, but they make no sense so i didnt include it.
"I didnt mean to look down on your choice, Your Grace. But, didnt your cousin says itll be better just to pull me...?"
You look at Zhongli with the most unserious, more like silly face, thinking about hes actually jealous of your choice on pulling for Neuvillette.
While it's true you need his shield and he would be the first Geo 5 star you have, but who wouldnt want a hydro dragon pure water tester PLUS a water machine gun to pew pew those enemies!
And more better? You have an unbuild Furina too!
"But my cousin also says he would comeback to genshin to pull for Nupi!"
If Zhongli able to curse, he will.
when will you also gave him a cute, silly lil nickname to him too?
"But like, Your Grace—"
"Shhsshhh"
You quickly shut him, putting your own finger on his lips, making a small blush creep onto the Geo Archon.
Zhongli can feel the side eye Neuvillette gave him as the Hydro dragon sips on his pure water.
"But, Your—"
Seriously, you never saw this version of him thats cant control his own usual calm demeanor, but the version you see is the impatient and insists that his opinion is the best.
Not like he's wrong though.
You put your own finger on you lips now and did a mewing pose, kinda making those two old dragon sigh.
whats wrong with this generation...
"Zhongli, hear me out. Nupi is a nuke, or else should i say Nukelet? Thats suit you isnt it?"
Neuvillette sighed again, but he didnt hide his chuckle about his Creator giving him more silly nickname.
"Pardon me, Your Grace. While it doesn't matter to me that you call me that, but I'm a dragon, not a nuke. I dont boom myself"
"But youre a boomer."
"Was that supposed to be a joke?"
"No."
Back to Zhongli. Hes still thinking countless reason about why you should pull for him.
I mean, his material is easier to get (even if youre the Creator and couldve just easily get everything you want), his talent is useful (SHIELD??? BIG PILLARS???? THROWING BIG ROCKS TO THE ENEMIES?????), he got many fans (BUT ITLL BE USELESS IF HIS CREATOR DIDNT WANT TO PULL HIM), he got many fanfics (HE KNEW YOU LIKE TO READ THEM AND HE WILL HACK THE TUMBLR TO SHOWS UP MANY FANFICS ABOUT HIM ON YOUR DASHBOARD BUT EXCLUDING THE HURT/NO COMFORT BCS HE KNEW YOU DESPISE THEM)
But then he come to a conclusion, as he clapped his hand.
"Your Grace, if Sir Neuvillette have Furina on your team, what about Xiao?"
Fuck he was right. WHAT ABOUT YOUR XIAO????? HE NEED HIS FATHER FIGURE!!!!
"Youve got a point..." you pose like the trade offer meme.
"So, who should i choose now? is it you, Sir Zhongli, or is it you, Monsieur Neuvillette?"
"Uhm, pardon me but, why dont you just get us?" ask Neuvillette, putting his cup on the table.
"Dont you think itll be better, Your Grace? You get two dragons and you also have their companions on your team."
"Monsieur, i dont have that kind of money. Im still in high school, heck, a boarding school! Even if i have guaranteed now, i dont think i can."
"But our banner started on your holidays..."
"Ok now you got another point"
"So, what you gonna do?"
"I'll take two dragon, please"
Perhaps Zhongli should thank Neuvillette for his suggestion.
------------------------------------------------------
another a/n : i post this cuz im at my home, suffering from another sudden sickness (i keep getting nauseous and vomiting plus a bad fever & headache but idk what causes them can anyone tell me 😭) also i have a tooth extraction scheduled on Monday so yeah... wished my future self a good luck

3D Gillion WIP
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
RAAGGHHH I have been in blender hell for like 3 weeks and I have nearly finished this low poly model of Gillion!!! Features a responsive 2d facial animation rig :3 I just have some bones to finish adding drivers to (and a sword and environment to model and texture) and then he is ready to animate!!! (nerd shit rant under cut)
I have been having a lot of fun learning blender!! in comparison to my first model in March of this year I think I have certainly come a long way!
Tumblr media
Bonus: I am finally starting to understand the evil spaghetti
Tumblr media
Here is the nodes for the 2d facial animation rig in all their glory! it's a whole process but a lot of fun I was using principled BSDF for shading up until the point of actually making the face rig which... does not work if you add a bunch of colour mix nodes so I had to switch to diffuse BSDF. If you're interested in learning how to make a rig this is the tutorial I followed it only covers the eyes but you can just copy the steps for making the eyes and use it to make additional bones for the mouth & eyebrows, adding them through colour mix nodes with alpha channels set to your textures like in my image!
I have also been using the pribambase plugin & aseprite to create my textures which I highly recommend! asesprite honestly is such a wonderful and intuitive program I had never made pixel art before starting this project and I know I certainly could be doing better (I am fully aware the model has mixels but I honestly don't hate the look personally which I know isn't the common take but whatever) but for my first time doing pixel art I'd say it's not too bad! Pribambase is a bit of a pain to set up now since the original creator has discontinued it and is no longer supporting it but it is still possible to find and use I am happy to teach anyone who would like to know!
Once the model is done I will be releasing my blender files & texture files as free to use for anyone who wants to animate with it or just play around & deconstruct! (with the exception of my animations) I am only learning myself so idk how useful they'll be but I would not have been able to make this model if it wasn't for kind modellers online who have released their files to deconstruct and learn from.
I have many plans for future blender projects all currently jrwi related (the brainrot is intense rn) & I am very excited to keep learning as I go! I currently have plans to make low-poly models of all the riptide pirates, the pd & the godslayers with animations in mind :p and I really wanna try some 3d sculpting (and maybe 3d printing) which I have wiwi in mind for... if any of these ideas get finished I will also release those models for free :)

Regarding WHB
(sorry for mistakes im writing this on PC without autocorrect)
I've noticed that the game is loosing many of its tumblr community due to the recent drama (idk if we can call it that? i mean that PB did some really crappy stuff)
''What in Hell is Bad?" used to be one of my fav games due to great storytelling, interesting worldbuilding and awesome and unique character designs. It was also one of the few porn games (lol) targetting the female audience which wasn't relying on heavy and steamy yaoi.I've grown so used to the absolutely cursed humor of this game that it will take me some time to find a good replacement...
While many people were annoyed at the lack of content, I used to enjoy the slow pace and lack of grind requierments.The addition of battle pass seemed fine until the only added content started to appear behind a goddamn overpriced paywall.Honestly I fully understand that adding Bath Beel to a battle pass made all hell break loose for the internet community.The card that was expected to arrive on the seals banner or idk as a login bonus was taken away from us which was soooo unfair to Beel fans. Also taking our daily 10 pull was critical to the relations between the players and devs. Imagine being a new player now, having trouble getting even a single 10 pull.
I still want to enjoy the created fantasy world from whb, but when the devs make it hard I just sometimes want to give up on that game. Like Andrealphus and Sitri are still one of my faves and i might doodle them in my notebooks, however idk about how the future of game's story will look.
The community created around this game was honestly kinda like my little safespace? We were pretty laid back and used to weird and horny stuff so I got really into doing my little silly doodles and writing a few headcanons.Big fandoms usually scare me due to the big spectrum of "types of fans". Even if we had some drama in the community among users we wre able to get back together and solve our problems together.
I just wanted to thank all of the content creators of WHB tumblr/twitter fandoms since I know that some of you decided to leave the game for good.( I mean i know that most of us are boycotting the game but just wanted to mention those who decide to leave us) My time in the fandom was really special! I loved entertaining you with my little silly versions of the characters, writing some theories and other stuff. While im currently boycotting the game just like most of us, I'm a bit tired of the lack of communication from PB. I'd love to get some new lore to make new headcanons and stuff to make the sillies even funnier, but... drawing them currently feels like I'm trying to revive the fandom by myself. blimgus was mostly created from my love for the game and I really hope that the game one day will be still fun to play

Hi you can totally delete thing but I was wondering if you had any advice
I found out a creator. I really liked the products of and have merch is a terrible person, and unlike dp, they're still connected and getting money from the ip.
I wanted some advice on what would be the best future corse since it was somethibg I really loved and was super popular for what it was. It wasn't a book series or anything that got into main stream but I still feel really upset since a lot of my o Teresa from that part of my life tied into it. I'm just not sure what to do.
I can’t really give advice in this situation because I personally just…don’t really do anything.
It’s just like. There are so many shit people out in the world. So many. I know people harp on JK Rowling and think that if they avoid HP then they’re safe, but then they’ll go out and read or watch something written by someone else who’s alive and just as bad, but just isn’t as famous.
Like damn if I have to sit here and vet goddamn everyone for everything that I like, I’m gonna have nothing left. Can’t eat chocolate cuz slave labor, can’t use my phone or drive my car cuz child slave labor for rare earth metals, can’t read goddamn Ender’s Game cuz dude who wrote it is a professional hater, can’t be in the DP phandom cuz dude who produced it is a professional hater, can’t buy 90% of clothes cuz slave labor, can’t play most video games cuz company behind it is under a misogyny or sex or worker’s rights lawsuit, can’t watch a shit ton of movies cuz so and so was behind it or starred in it and they were a sex criminal…
You get what I’m getting at?
It’s literally goddamn impossible to like things.
Idk man I can’t tell you what you should or shouldn’t do because my philosophy is sort of like fuck it, it’s impossible to ethically have hobbies and do literally anything so! I’m just gonna live my life, surround myself with good people, and vote for policies that will help change things for the better!
That’s kinda my approach. 🤷‍♀️

not shifting or manifestation related, but a thing about my personal life. i need HELP💥
i replied to an ask before writing this to make a joke BUT it’s becoming serious right now wth.
basically my mental health became total shit after graduating high school (2021) and i ended up doing NOTHING for the rest of the time until now. i did nothing because i wanted to start so many things but gave up before even starting because i have sever anxiety lmFao.
NOW I WANT TO DO EVERYTHING BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT TO CHOOSE.
i want to be a movie director, screenwriter, author, voice actor, actor, solo traveler, content creator, artist, and so fucking on.
idk what to invest in. how does someone know what to choose for their future?
i have some plans but i don’t wanna talk about it openly because i believe in evil eye ;) so im not spilling shit here or nowhere else, except my family. but i’m UNSURE either way.
im almost turning 22 and i want to take my fucking life back, but i don’t know where to start and what to do. i want to do everything, and i think i actually CAN do everything because im a really fast learner and i consider myself a jack of all trades if i put my mind to it, but i have to choose something first, to start little.
someone has advice? PLEASE

Thank you all!
Thank you all for all your support! I have seen the influx of some volunteer artists, and the re-blogs and the likes and I honestly didn't expect people to enjoy the idea of hermits as tea as much as I do! It really means a lot to me and I hope to keep this Project going at a reasonable pace with a unique lineup of teas where everyone can find at least one that they enjoy! And perhaps do more in the future! Also I have been bouncing around the idea of a discord server. A place to chat and talk with each other about tea or ideas or just build a fun community! IDK how may would be intrested but I may make a poll about it and see if the idea gains enough traction. I wanna make sure that everyone has the ability to voice ideas for what they think best suits the content creators they love, especially the ones I am less familiar with myself. Thank you all again! <3

Project to read every zero day fanfic on AO3
So yall can read the title, as of like and hour ago ive made a project for myself to read every zd fic on ao3 bc I realized that ive read a concerning amount of caldre fics so I might aswell turn it into something. So far ive read the equivalent of 3 pages on ao3 as of now (60 fics) ive only made this an official thing an hour ago so I havent been smashing out reading every fic on a page back to back to back, ive just been going through pages and reading ones that catch my eye so all the ones ive already read are spread out across 25 pages of all zd fics on ao3, ill try to get through every one but idk bc theres no way im touching 'THE GREAT DILDX IN CALS ASSHXLE!!!' LIKE HELL NAH IM NOT READING THAT SHIIITTTT!!!😭😭😭 Or like 'the great tales of butter on andres belly' IM MOT FUCKING READING THAT you couldnt even play me to skim those fics honestly.
But basically every week or 2 im just gonna be reading a few of them and updating yall on my thoughts and feelings bc oh boy do I have some feelings about these fic, not updates and thoughts on all the individual ones ive read bc hell no im not gonna put that much work into this.
Progress so far + stand outs
like ive said, ive read 60 fics so far and honestly not many stand out to me this far mainly bc their just not very good like their either straight up poorly written smut or regular fics with not alot of flavour to them ofc no hate to the creators all power to them honestly if they have the drive and passion to put their work out there then thats great for them, I just dont have much to say on those types of fics. A MASSIVEEEE thing ive noticed with alot of the fics in the zd fandom are the concerning tags that get put on them like why in the fucking hell are there so many god damn non-con fics??? Its a weird amount that im less then pleased to see and really really dont wanna see more in the future id like to see college au's, coffee shop au's, record store au's (heheheh always gotta throw in a cherry waves reference) or more happy ending fics but idk ig thats just what I want. Kinda random but I just remembered seeing a young royals caldre au fic one time and I havent seen it since im really looking forward to it bc im pretty sure its 15 chapters long I LOOVVVEEE long fics but also I think a young royals caldre fic would be so fire?? Like I see the vision
STAND OUTS!!!!
Not alot of notable fics, just 3, but their 3 damn good fics that are absolute must reads.
(not in specific ranked order)
1. CHERRY WAVES!!!! Brief rundown: its a record store caldre au where cal is an employee and andre is a customer so its a strangers to lovers type thing its also a very music heavy fic (obviously) which I love bc I looovvee music especially the music thats mentioned like deftones, wallows, the smiths ect.
God I love this fic and anyone that's seen my posts will know how much I love it, cherry waves is definitely my favorite out of the 3 so far and I may have just some very low standards for zd fics but this was a genuinely enjoyable read for me. Its long (13 chapters), its a slow burn, its cute, and the best one for me is that its got me hooked into the story without the appeal of ungodly amounts of s3x!! Its good for me bc im literally asexual (the s3x repulsed kind) and borderline aromantic so yeah horray!! There is a chapter where cal and andre get freaky but its not even relevant to the story and the author wrote it to be skippable which bless his heart he is a saint for that, a true sweetheart ty miles💜 not much else to say without spoilers so go read it for yourself, I cant link nor can I tell yall the ao3 acc bc its an orphan acc now so just search up 'cherry waves' on ao3 and try to find it, theres only 8 pages so its not too hard to miss bc its written like 'Cherry waves [COMPLETED!!!]'
2. Televangelism by anonymous Brief rundown: religious cal, non believer andre. Cal is like super super super religious and is constantly talking about god and shit like that and andre is like 'yeah whatever'. Some build up later and boom caldre🎉🎉 its not alot of plot to explain without spoiling it so please go read it, its only one chapter so its not gonna take up that much time
THE WRITING IS PHENOMENAL. BEYOND AMAZING. IT GENUINELY HAD ME CLUTCHING MY PEARLS BC OF HOW GOOD THIS WAS OMGGGGGGGG!!!! initially I was interested in reading it bc I saw the name and it made me think of the song by ethel cain and I thought the fic might have something to do with her song since ik theres some zd ethel cain enjoyers out there. I was shocked by the beautiful wording in this fic, the way the author describes the way cal thinks is just MUAH CHEFS KISS and okay SPOILER PLEASE DONT READ THIS NEXT PART IF YOUR GONNA GO READ THIS FIC CAUSE IT RUINS THE WHOLE ENDING or maybe there were hints in the fic all along and my dumbass wasnt able to pick up on them🤦 the way the author writes the caldre freaky time at the end made it sound like heaven (no pun intended) like it really made me think 'damn I need to get freaky with my homies cause holy shit this is making say gex sound so good rn'. At first when I was reading the end i didnt realize freaky time was happening until a little later then I should have realized um mb gays im too asexual for this shit!!😅😅 But also the way the author writes cals thoughts about the gay freaky time is gorgeous??!! Ugh I love when people write freaky time in a poetic manner that makes it sound like your being banged by an angel and its blasing you with radiant godly energy rather then me reading the words 'yeah baby you like that?' and skimming over the paragraph until I see the word 'came' so ik its over. Other then the freaktastic freaky time, the whole fic is written magnificently and I really love how they write religious characters it was truly enthralling 10000000000/10 would recommend its been a bit since I read it so I might be meatriding off my memory but idk im writing this at 1 im too tired to read it again.
The lucky last, 3. FBI's most wanted by gaygurobian Brief rundown: cal and andre go through with the shxxting (god fucking damnit💀) and cals about to khs when andre is like 'lets escape I have a plan' so they escape from the police and are now on the run from the cops. Caldre caldre caldre🎉🎉 its barely toxic well i mean a little but I dont think having a argument with your bf is toxic. Cal is also transmasc if that adds anything but not really.
THIS FIIICCCCC GOD ITS SOO GOOOOOOOOODDD idk if this was the first zd fic ive ever read or if it was the first GOOD zd fic ive ever read either way it was an og fic for me and the most memorable aswell. I remember so clearly the day I read it and how invested i was in this shit it was crazyyyyy, the writing is amazing and the author could really go places with how talented they are at story telling it was just wow wow wow im speechless. Im being so real when I say I like this cal and andre more then cal and andre in the movie bc ik they both did the same insane act of shxxting up their school but the fic really makes cal and andre more likable and makes them feel like people in a way that I didnt see them in the movie. I dont really sympathize with the cal and andre from the movie and I lowkey dislike them bc ik they probably stunk and were completely dicks, but cal and andre from this fic?? Bro those are my homies they are gannnggggg their genuinely so much more likable in the fic which I mean its a fic yeah ofc their gonna seem more likable especially when they are in the hands of a talented author that knows how to expand on a character even if that character has little to none backstory or atleast not much to work off of to make them likeable as people😮‍💨 thsi fic is written so well that my ass stayed for the freaky time like that shit wasnt even that bad and was actually written well enough to where my brain wont vomit from cringe it really opened my eyes up to well written freaky time AND its perfectly intergraded into the story like its eased into it and it doesnt just come out of nowhere which im happy about. THE END OF THE FIC IS CRAZY THO I WAS SAT IN MY ROOM FOR 10 MINUTES IN SILENCE AFTER FINISHING IT MY JAW WAS ON THE FLOOR AND I HAD TEARS IN MY EYES!!! But yeah this fic is a classic in my eyes the whole fic is truly magnificent its 3 chapters of bliss bro its so so so good, the author is talented as FUCK and has a few other zd fics that ive read but just cant remember but ik they were amazing I just know it.
Thats it hopefully I can get out an update tomorrow this is gonna be one hell of a project thats gonna really hurt my eyes and my soul

Ok I watched both playthroughs for Paths Not Taken now, spoilers ahead of course!!
And incoherent rambling ahead
I'm a huuuge fan of how the choices you make rly do impact stuff!! I hope that's a sign that that might become more common in future books!
Evil thought: I kinda would've loved it if they'd been killed when you abandon cas/gabe at the creator's camp... So you're just fr on your own with your li from there on + getting to see the story with no cas/gabe. But ok then the whole thing with the beech tree couldn't have happened then and I thought that was interesting too.
I LOVED the glimpse of a Crimson Beech without leylines in one of the endings!! And a mc who stayed human!! And the whole implication that the creator will be back!!
I think the oooone thing I do rly strongly disagree with is in Gabe's route. After you find out she's a vampire and you call her a monster, she disagrees with you like 'no I used to think so too but these past weeks with you made me realise im not.' Cuz I'm like, idk I feel like that part of Gabe's character development only really happens once mc actually knows she's a vampire and still loves her despite it? Like to me that always felt like a realisation she could only have under those circumstances?
Also idk how to word this but like, I'm also never a fan of when at some point there's a spot that can be taken by different characters. (Think of AME Teagan and Bianca, terrorfest) so stuff happening to/with them isn't unique to them anymore? (Tho I get y they do it because it's easier that way) Which in this case is like once you get back to the nexus and one of them conspires with their coven leader. But like also it didn't feel ooc for either of them in either route + from what I saw their dialogue was different at least (like it always bugs me the most when characters take that place and get the same dialogue). Prob more believeably in character for Cas, like I always felt like for a while he still has a high opinion on Astoria and his opinion of her lessening is due to mc, so not applicable here. For Gabe I think it's very interesting to imagine this version of her that actually trusts Lewyn, and enough to do that/let him manipulate her like that, because I always assumed she'd just always have been more wary of him. But like it doesn't seem ooc TO ME, I can even imagine her in a way viewing him as someone who 'saved' her grandmother because by letting Gabe turn, her grandmother got spared (and still lived for a while after that, from what I understood). Like you know when you just start making yourself believe shit to cope/make a situation easier to accept? I can imagine it like that for sure. Like it's better to convince herself her covenleader is the lesser of two evils. And who at least cares about the humans too. And finally she's also surrounded by vampires who have a very high opinion of him (think of when mc meets Gabe's vampire friends and how they talk about him).
All in all it definitely confirms to me that those three are just supposed to be together, like that's when they are at their best. Nods in agreement with myself

this is going to sound weird but bear w me. so when i was 14 i figured i could manifest. my life was great i had a great future in front of me. but i was CURIOUS to know what would happen if i “messed up” and so i manifested something really bad to happen. i’m an adult now and i can recognize that i basically gave myself trauma :) so this is technically my second time learning about conscious manifestation but now i have this fear, and i self sabotage when manifesting some important things i guess bcs i’m subconsciously scared? but i can manifest instantly dumb things, also, i love your advice and your perspective idk if you do like coaching? thank you! have a nice day!
You should not be afraid, but I understand why you would be. You discovered the law at a very young age and with that kind of power you had to learn very early on what you're capable of, and that scared you.
The thing is, now that you know about conscious manifestation and you know that you are the creator of your own reality, you can shape this reality into anything you want it to be. You can manifest wild things, you can undo the thing you manifested when you were 14, you can create a brand new reality for yourself, the sky is the limit.
The problem starts arising when you start putting labels on the things you're manifesting, like saying small dumb things are easy to manifest and big things are hard to manifest. Nothing is easy or hard to manifest, everything is equal in the eyes of the law. The only difference comes from the restrictions we put on ourselves. So just drop those restrictions, drop those beliefs, and decide that everything is easy to manifest and everything is equal and you have no hard time at all with the law. Decide that you can manifest anything you want and stick with that decision and you will see you 3D change around you.
I hope that helps clear things up, and thank you so much for reading my blog. I consider this to be my coaching, as I answer as many questions as I possibly can for free because I believe that everyone has the right to access information. I don't charge for coaching but if anyone's feeling generous I do have a Ko-fi shop in which you can donate if you feel like it. But thanks again for your support and I hope that I can continue to clear things up for anyone who needs a little bit of guidance.
Happy manifesting ❤️
