You BETTER make a fucking LM fashion post. I need that.

note: im not a professional in the slightest . mens historical fashion is a major special interest of mine and all my info comes from my own research which might not be correct so feel free to add corrections but be nice about it or ill cry

ill do a more in-depth post about it at some point when i get the chance and i've actually thought about it in more detail but for now the most fun details ive been working on in my own design is specifically Madeleine .

while probably not brick-accurate (as ive not had the chance to read it and most of my information comes from posts i read and what my friends tell me) i just think its a fun little take on his character using fashion of the time which im autistic as hel about.

one thing about 1820s fashion that usually sticks out to me is the height of all of their collars. One key feature of collars in the early 1800s was that they were quite tall (though by the 1850s they were tall on opposite sides to how they were in the 1800s-1820s. they kind of changed from being high at the back of the neck to high at the front, pointed towards the cheeks.)

This works wonders for my Valjean as he has quite a distinguishing scar down the side of his face near his right eye that would be very easy to identify, as a result, he grew his hair out longer to allow his hair to drape rather lazily down the side of his face. while this was entirely unfashionable, it was better than being clocked as immediately suspicious by Javert.

where fashion comes into play is that all these high collars were also perfect for a character design detail of him looking a bit more mysterious. i'm yet to draw something to properly convey this (i'll probably do it in another post if i ever get round to it, if more people want to hear about my fashion choices for my designs?) i think this is the best i got .

this was drawn quickly and without reference so you'll have to excuse the inaccuracies but it gets the gist across, the high collar and cravat working to conceal a part of his face (and you can also see the draped hair in play). while not totally effective in concealing his identity, that's not wholly the point of course . but i think it still gives him both a cozy kind of look like hes trying to stay warm in his coats but also i hope it also gets across that he's hiding.. Something. he's a little suspicious. but hes nice about it

ah, classic civ to say or do absolutely anything but accept that they fucked up and apologise for all of their unruly behavior (their bulletin, updated as of 06/8/24)

they should really quit beating this dead horse, it would actually be way more benefitial for them to move on from this

lm fucking ao

i really dont want to hear whatever deflection civ is gonna pull out of their ass to try and say they tooootally have no fault in the situation. the fact of the matter is whether civ themself gave coy the perms, or coy used civs account, it doesnt fucking matter because it came from civs account making civ fucking liable. its their fault coy deleted the pets because THEY (supposedly) gave coy their acc info. this is just semantics and lies. also funny how they didnt address the fact that they never told temul they were paying for their personal family databases

it seems like theyre doing pretty much the opposite of the best course of action i pointed out before, theyre doubling down, acting like they did nothing wrong, and of course pulling every mental illness card they have in the deck.

I cant get over how stupid people are to take Sam Levison’s and other edgy showmaker’s bait EVERY FUCKING TIME. That show starts with characters saying « Mental illness is sooo sexy yeah im romanticizing mental illness thats right » and like clock work lm seeing people tweeting « THIS SHOW SAYS MENTAL ILLNESS IS SEXY !!! this is disgusting ??? »

How do you not see its literally written to make twitter talk and mad about it ? 😭

gonna be obnoxious re: that last post on fandomification; i do think the worst version of that ive been in was the les mis 2012 explosion. the primary fandom source material was already two layers off of the original novel- movie was an alteration* of the musical which was an alteration of the book, which is dense and hard to parse- and then you remove that even further by your interpretation in fanart** and then people who are more interested in engaging with the tropes than the Themes And Narratives lean on those interpretations until the result is something completely divorced and/or directly contradicts the novel.

*said neutrally- you should make the story fit the medium, which will inherently mean changing some aspects, and despite everything i still like the 2012 movie a lot-

**i can... absolutely trace this in lm to two specific artists, who both made work that was simplified for the sake of comedy but recognizably based in the source, and then people took the simplification as gospel.

but no seriously everything ive been Into has the abstraction problem. amnesia's Lore™ is easy to miss, and there were/are a lot of people who watched ppl' lps the game and never actually played it themselves. which is not a inherently a bad thing! survival horror is not a genre for everyone, and the earlier games don't have a story mode and are much harder to digest. but it means their view of the game is already biased, which when added to the fandom tropification machine or just generalized misogyny be normal about justine or ill kill you leads to a lot more shit takes.

yume nikki/fangames run into people hinging their theories on other people's theories being The Only Accurate Read and not something subjective based on symbolic interpretation and the player's actions; metal gear has the curse of being stupidly overcomplicated in difficult to connect ways and very popular with the standard #gamer crowd, who can't fuvking read anyway; asscreed has the same issue but with worse intial writing and a more pointlessly drawn out canon.

ff7 is a shitshow and deserves its own post, which im probably not going to make, because it iiiiis exhausting. its fucking wild how just prioritizing* the original story over the later retcons and thematic contradictions causes ppl to bitch at you for being a Fake Fan™. cant say im big on it.

*those of you who reject the compilation entirely... i salute you, y'all are stronger than god.

anyway. it's healthy to embrace the zen of letting people be wrong on the internet, but boy howdy does it not stop them from being wrong in new and exciting ways. i would study some people in a lab if i thought it wouldn't drive me nuts.

dh.....ha h........... oh boy here we go . its 2am and took me a Hot second to even register what this meme is meant to do sjndsbhfdjn (Note:..... i didnt include Teach Fucks and the Chromicles, since neither were serious and just opening the stories made me shriek) 

**Apparently a high 95% of my fics begin with a vague sentence to set the scene over anything :/ I honestly thought I did more dialogue openings, but apparently I kick down the door and am like “They are on a boat, and someone is going to die tonight” kinda vibe check,,,,,,, aight. I personally find openings to be the hardest part of a story so WHOOP

Things had escalated so much quicker than he had planned for. 

They had been sitting under the shade of the trees for a little over three hours. 

The forest was never anything but alive. 

The battle tower was up and running. 

It was going to be fine. 

It was all in good fun, until it wasn’t. 

The avatar had escaped, half their men were showing signs of hypothermia, and Zuko was never meant to know. 

If he was going to be honest, Leon was at a loss. 

There were plenty of unexplained things in the world. 

It started a couple of years ago, and Raihan was almost certain it was his fault.

Marco wasn’t entirely sure what Pops wanted him to even do at these meetings.

Marco had been caught. 

It had taken less than an hour, since Deuce’s parents had caught them. 

“Nice and easy,” Marco instructed, ********NSFW********.

[sockmonstergotstyle]

I just spent 15 fucking pound ordering the qoaad spine art paperback because getting the tda spine art copies in the uk is like rocking horse shit and it’s so much money to spend on my fourth version of a book that wasn’t even that great and I just really fucking hope Julian Blakthorn knows it’s all for his bitchy ass
