Arrogance is such an interesting choice of word for Jean to use to describe Neil because in aftg at no point does Neil ever come across as arrogant and no one ever says that about him and yet Jean here and gods reading about Neil from other pov is so interesting
#I’m also too dumb to give an analysis about how Neil is arrogant but in a way that’s slightly different to Kevin#in a less obvious way#but still as confident#but it is not arrogance because it is Neil being strong#because from Jean pov Neil is suppose to be below riko but him acting like he is equal to riko is him being “”arrogant when really#he just wasn’t brain washed like Jean was#anyways I’m rereading tsc so good luck to me#aftg#all for the game#tfc#the foxhole court#aftg series#aftg fandom#aftg incorrect quotes#neil josten#the sunshine court#tsc and aftg supremacy#tsc#jean moreau

#myart#chloesimagination#comic#fnaf#five nights at freddy's#fnaf vanessa#mike schmidt#vanessa afton#vanessa shelly#fnaf movie#fnaf fanart#MORE VANESSA thoughts 🩵#You guys think Vanessa felt at all embarrassed after asking Mike to dance#like my read on that scene in retrospect is like#she was trying to manipulate him a little by flirting#BUT MIKE just didn’t take the bait at all#so she even changes gears after this less flirting and more being a friend#ITS JUST funny to think despite her trying to trick mike#she still felt a lil rejected by him BAHA#ITS HARD being a murderer accomplice out here#tbh Mike was literally too distracted by the animatronics to even process he was being flirted with#Mike having the trait of not noticing obvious flirts is honestly my favourite#dude has WAY too much on his own mind to even notice#They are silly 🩵

an angle i enjoy in cosmic/eldritch horror is when, instead resorting to the old classic "the horrors being so incomprehensible that they break your brain and drive you mad" cliché, the premise is that in comprehending the horrors you are so changed by the experience that your new state is indistinguishable to an outside observer from madness. you comprehend the unknowable just fine, but actually communicating that to anyone else is impossible because they just don't have the mental framework required to understand it. the eldritch horrors don't drive you mad. what does is the ordinary everyday horror of finding yourself isolated, ridiculed and doubted at every turn, no matter how hard you try to make yourself heard and understood.
#🐉#this is why i liked the way tma did it#where the eldritch is more or less a direct allegory for trauma (among other things)#and how those experiences can make the entire world seem like a different place and make you feel crazy#when other people dont understand what seems so clear and obvious to you#apartment 'complex'? actually i find it quite simple. no guys really its so simple you gotta believe me. why dont you believe me.

So does anybody else ever think about how Loop felt the need to demonstrate that the party's deaths wouldn't have any effect on the loops. I know I do but that's besides the point. Anyway I don't think Loop actually needs to bathe, they just like to feel included.
#'but lucabyte didnt you already do a comic with this exact same message? that loop has potentially killed their party intentionally before?'#yes i did absolutely do that thank you for noticing. that is what the cannibalism comic is about. no that was not a metaphor. lol#isat#in stars and time#isat spoilers#in stars and time spoilers#sifloop#isat siffrin#isat loop#in stars and time fanart#isat fanart#lucabyteart#ill ramble elsewhere some other time. maybe in a text post. but. long and short of it: even if you assume the answer to 'how do they know'#is that in sasasap isa got frozen once. theres still the fact that the loops are from sif being too distressed. how far gone does a siffrin#have to be before they can witness a party member die and notice it has no effect. how does loop feel to have planned to kill the party#during act 3. why did they NEED to show sif that. are they trying to preemtively stop them from getting the idea in their head#that maybe that might work? when they're out of all other options? when they just get so frustrated and at wits end?#loop helps in subtle ways through the whole game. and in less subtle ways like begging sif not to use the dagger. and while yes the#overarching reason you need to learn that the loops are tied to sif is because you need to figure out wish craft.... loop doesn't know the#actual mechanics of the loops themselves. just what didn't work. the power of friendship. getting the final hit in. being perfect. etc...#and besides all that.. how did loop feel during that hangout. being so deceitful. especially since before the other shoe drops#sif is enjoying themselves. but they know what's coming the whole time.#as for: why bathing? its the obvious imagery for blood on their hands/washing/never being clean. and is a bit of an inversion of the other#piece i just drew with the other casual closeness and nudity being kind. this one is cruel instead.#anyway tag ramble over ill do a masterpost of all my fanwork with some directors commentary sometime i promise. since i know im often vague

Love it when a modern "progressive" show makes all the evildoers physically disabled.
Larys has a Clubfoot, Aemond gets his eye cut out, and now Aegon is burnt and missing appendages.
Isn't it convenient that we can immediately tell a person is bad because their body looks different?
And of course, we don't explore any discrimination against these characters because they're horrible, and we shouldn't feel bad for horrible people.
People were mean to Larys because of his Clubfoot? But don't you know he has a gross foot fetish?
Aemond has impaired vision? But his eyepatch looks cool, and he is still a good fighter, so what is he even complaining about?
Aegon has been severely burnt? But he is a rapist and so let's make jokes about his dick burning off, lol.
#adding Helaena as neurodivergent and Alicent as an SA victim makes it even more fucking jarring that all these characters are on TG#Because of the obvious moral whitewashing of TB and Rhaenyra specifically#it is really gross how when you put the 2 factions next to each other you have the morally superior side all be pretty able-bodied people#and the other side is full of disabled people and victims who handle their trauma in unpalatable ways#in f&b this was less of an issue because no side was morally superior and the TG disabilities made an interesting sort of balance#book!Rhaenyra had to struggle because of her gender book!Aegon and Aemond because of their disabilities#but by tipping the scales the show created ruin their chance to create compelling disabled characters#they could have had their version of Tyrion Jaime and Bran instead they wrote a bunch of gross stereotypes#house of the dragon#ableism#hotd critical#anti hotd#aemond targaryen#larys strong#aegon ii targaryen

not enough discussion about the gavins' complicated relationship with feminine-coded/beauty products, i don't think.
#for klavier because it's not as direct it's about how we never see him actually wearing lipstick? even though apollo literally attends#a concert of his which is where you'd most expect him to wear makeup. but apparently he just doesnt. or at least not in public#klavier gavin#kristoph gavin#i feel like there are several ways you can read into it. the misogyny/toxic masculinity one is really obvious clearly with kristoph's#singling out of men specifically and klavier's (probably accidental?) condescending manner of calling women 'fraulein' plus his general#mildly patronising attitude towards many of the women in the game (also probably unintentional)#(i think he's trying to be charming and it's coming off wrong to some of them. like ema. and me.)#but i feel like there's also maybe an element of... inherent perfecfionism to it? like both of these products are conventionally beautifyin#products and kristoph while he is open to showing people he uses nail polish specifically chooses one that's clear and missable unless you#see him apply it. he also feels the need to justify his use of it and specifically spell it out as something he chooses to do rather than#needs to do even though duh. that should be obvious.#idk there's just something about his seeming need to take control of that narrative that i find interesting. his need to spin it into a#'there's nothing wrong with my nails but I had the foresight to see that even the smallest parts of my appearance should be kept immaculate#and it's a choice i'm making to refine an already adequate part of my personage /not/ to cover some unsightly defect.' the need to emphasis#that specifically is so. hm. and with klavier i could see it being a case of him liking makeup liking the pops of colour yet being unwillin#to admit to it because he's afraid that other people might see it as him being dissatisfied with his own appearance regardless of if he is#or isn't. or even just perceiving colourful makeup as being unseemly because it's so overt and unnatural.#like i can see this as them both viewing 'real' beauty to be that which is inherent to a person and seemingly effortless#thus somehow negating the beauty which one achieves through cosmetics or other external means.#and if you want to use external means to achieve beauty or neatness or whatever then your only valid options are those which blend into you#natural state. like clear nail polish. or really awful spray tan.#i feel like klavier's less confined by these ideas (if they hold merit at all) considering he actually owns coloured lipstick and he wears#jewellery (admittedly quite 'masculine' jewellery no gems or pearls or anything like that but jewellery nonetheless) but i think it just#makes it more interesting that he doesnt seem quite able to cross the line anyway. like it's that ingrained into his system.#anyway that's all i've got. you guys should tell me what you think too#annotations

AU Idea: UtRH edition
Tw: dark/manipulative Jason, psychological torture, inevitable mental breakdown
For this AU, everything is the same up until Jason arrives in Gotham. Instead of donning the Red Hood, he never makes it apparent that he came back. Jason is pissed that Bruce won't kill Joker for him. He's upset, angry, hurt, and grieving what he perceives to be a betrayal.
He knows Batman doesn't and won't kill.
So, he'll make Batman kill... By killing people and framing it as Batman.
He even goes so far as to make Bruce doubt whether or not it's Bruce killing people. Jason worsens injuries Batman has already committed, haunts the man as "Jason", and even sneaks sedatives into Bruce's food/drink to make the man think he's passing out/blacking out all the time. He'll even move Bruce's unconscious body to a new place.
He just escalates it as Bruce slowly loses his mind.
And Tim? He's freaking the fuck out cause he has no clue why Bruce is reverting and even getting worse than he was. None of his strategies are helping either
#jason todd#bruce wayne#tim drake#dc au#this is kind of like that nightwing thing jason did but way less obvious

BREAKING NEWS!!! Local idiot ghost absolutely blown away when boyfriend gives him a nickname for the first time, more info after this broadcast.
Bonus pet-name edition:
(Yeah I know it's ooc for grovyle to EVER use the term "babe" but lets go ahead and assume he's done it accidentally a few times rather than intentionally. He's deeply in love with the dumb ghostman, ok. Sometimes it just slips out.)
Dusknoir is still recovering from hearing it. And when he finally calls grovyle "love" himself on accident a few days later, he falls deathly ill for two weeks cause his body couldn't handle the aftermath and started rapidly shutting down on a molecular level.
#dusknoir he is dying pls for the love of god just give him the heal seed already#i headcanon that grovyle starts to call dusknoir just “noir” simply because it's less effort but dusknoir is legitimately touched by it#he's never had a nickname before so he cried happy tears for only 2 hours after this interaction#celebi thinks noir's drama over the entire thing is very funny so she starts calling him “beloved” even more and he has a meltdown#and dusknoir being a literal functional storage unit is my favorite thing he is so good at HOLDING stuff for his BF and GF#he carries water bottles and snacks for them like a total mom when they go exploring#(he got the habit after hanging out w/ echo and sora. those are his kids so of course he's gonna have treats!!!)#what's in the void you ask??? who knows probably a pocket universe or the elusive pmd2 remake#i had way too much fun drawing this is it obvious?#and i really like the new brush i've been using lately so i'm happy#also first comic i put decent effort into!!!! yay#actaeonshipping#future trio#dusknoir#grovyle#celebi#pmd#pmd2#pmd eos#explorers of sky#my art#tw blood

full on feel like pjo tv s2 is not gonna hold up so they need to drag as much attention to the series as they can by using nico as a sock puppet w tsats2
im fully expecting the show to go the way of the movies. it doesnt help Sea of Monsters is almost unanimously the least favorite book of the first series. People frequently forget it even exists or what happens in it, especially more casual fans.
Heck, just look at how little fanfare the second season has gotten so far as compared to the build up to s1. I wouldn't be surprised if s2 totally flops. It would be a little funny.
#pjo#riordanverse#pjo tv#pjo tv crit#tsats 2#Anonymous#ask#im still sad theyre beating every dead horse in the franchise they can EXCEPT for the graphic novels#the poor graphic novels arent getting advertised AT ALL and the BoO one got cancelled#like. the graphic novels would actually be probably one of the best advertising avenues!#like. hey! you dont need to write a whole new book! just remind people of previous books and give them a way to refresh on it#and given how the first couple of graphic novels were a different artists i could totally see them doing a second version#just to make them all consistent. thatd make sense and be reasonable.#the show has also already kind of trapped itself in a corner in a couple of ways#for one they kind of screwed themselves over failing to plan for the actors. yknow. ageing.#Walker is already taller than like. most of the cast. Percy's gonna be TOWERING over Luke by TLO#i think the main trio is all like almost 16 already? and we're only on s2. its gonna be rough. they didnt think about it. they didnt plan.#also with how theyve been messing with plot and characterization theyre VERY quickly going to start running into hurdles#because they dont seem to understand the more you change earlier on. the less the later stuff will work without also needing change#because. it's dependent on what comes before. so we will very quickly be requiring either MASSIVE canon divergence or a lot of retcon#and retcon in the show is going to be VERY OBVIOUS#though i stand by itll be so funny if they solve too much too quickly in s2 just like the movies and it just ends on#''wait. crap. what are we going to do for s3 now. we solved too much too early. they have nothing to do''

Today's poll is the counterpoint to yesterday's poll, which asked which hobbit Legolas would talk to if forced by social duty.
#lotr#lord of the rings#sam#samwise gamgee#poll#polls#legolas is not an option because the ~specialness~ of Legolas being an elf presumably wore off at some point during the journey#and because that answer seems way too obvious and thus is less interesting to me#but if you want me to justify it#I've read a great little fic about Legolas and Gimli getting drunk and then accidentally getting 'elvish married' during Aragorn's wedding#so let's just say Legolas is ~busy~

Raine, Eber, and Darius are the most obvious rebels ever but it’s so funny how Terra was like. Raine and Eber make sense. DARIUS?? I AM SHOCKED. Darius, who suspiciously hangs out with unsurprising rebel Eberwolf 24/7. Darius, who’s moody and has beef with the primary weapons designer for the Emperor’s Coven. Darius, who started being affectionate to Hunter right before he went AWOL and fought Adrian.
#the owl house#darius deamonne#I think what saved him was the fact that he could act suspicious because he had multiple motives#Raine wasn’t hiding their rebel opinions they had already gotten in trouble for asking questions#Eberwolf I think is obvious because he has strong opinions about demons and if he knew about the baskilisks I think that woulda come up a lo#versus Darius who appears pretty self centered and is rich and#was indoctrinated way younger than Raine was#and also he wasn’t blasting his connection to Eda like Raine was 💀😭#it’s less obvious Darius was her friend 😔

#for reasons that'd take way too long to explain im living at my grandmas house rn for around a month (she's not here)#and she has like a billion detective novels which i love but i lost the ability to read when i was like 12#i do read books as pdfs sometimes but even that's rare... and they're usually dr w.ho/t.orchwood#it was curtain of poirot fame which I've seen like a billion times coz it's one of my#favourite poirot stories but i've never read it#ms christie is crazyyy coz somehow i still gasped out loud multiple times despite knowing the ending#it's also really cool that you 1000% can guess the ending if you pay attention#i almost always guess the murderer immediately w detective things but i usually watch shows where it's way easier imo#i mean i guess them in books too but they make it less easy coz shows have a limited cast and it's always obvious#anyway damn... i really wanna get back to reading so im gonna try to read other ones as well#she has tons of books in english hungarian and german so the selection is endless#mostly crime novels which is great coz i love those. no prizes for guessing who i get it from#barking

#really just want to see agni (and grace) being cool 😳 if that's not obvious enough#忠 on hatz's back means loyal#the sky is filled with shinsu loops (inspired by water dragon heavy storm technique but less destructive in exchange for wider range)#also if you haven't connected the dots yet. grace and jinsung are having a spar somewhere. and Agni is keeping it inside a massive barrier#he set up the barrier with shinsu devices ofc. not purely Agni's power. we can see him doing some typing there since he controls it#Also I forget if i have it written on future chapter or discarded it on this update script. but just in case i don't. here's an explanation#the barrier was meant to keep the chaos inside to stay inside. but because the shinsu on lower floors aren't as concentrated as upper floor#and shinsu inside the barrier was condensed with Grace's power. If the barrier was completely blocked off it'd be easy to suffocate inside#so they need the outside shinsu to be able to cross inside or Agni wouldn't be able to stay inside. Thus I imagine it like a one way valve#it's easy to cross from the outside but hard to get out without deactivating the barrier. and that was why Hatz was trapped#Laure on the prev chpt must've noticed that the flow of shinsu got siphoned somewhere and thus the 'something is wrong' feeling#but no one else notice bc it'd prob feel like a passing breeze. considering with how big a floor is#tower of god#tog#two sides of the same coin comic#my comic#my art#khun#koon#khun a.a#khun aguero agnis#hatz#rak wraithraiser#rak
