#in case it isnt clear. having an absolute time

[egg-on-a-legg]

who up washing they mouths [proceeds to experience one of the most horrifying stories ive ever seen, changing me fundamentally as a person and plunging me to deeper depths than i have ever known or will ever know again]

[enigmaris]

Reading a lot of DPxDC fics lately, heres my take on the Danny is Damian's twin AU:

Danny was injured to near death and left for dead by the League as a young boy. Ra's only wanted one heir and Danny was less bloodthirsty than Damian, so it was decided that Danny had to go.

Danny is found and taken to a hospital in Illinois, barely alive. He is saved and wakes up with basically no memories of where he was from and speaking a rare dialect of arabic that none of the cops investigating his case can identify. What words Danny does know in english are concerning so the cops figure Danny was being held by some sort of murder, death cult.

The investigation runs cold and Danny is sent to foster care once his injuries heal. He is then adopted by the fentons and moves to Amity Park. As he grows the only clear memories he has of his past is another boy his age who he felt safe with. He knows the other boy is important to him but not why. He cant even really remember his face, certainly not his name. Danny always felt shitty that he couldnt remember the other boy because if he did, then the cops would have rescued him from the murder death cult too. Instead the other boy is presumably there and getting hurt all the time like Danny was.

Danny gets his powers like normal at 14 and decides that now that he has superpowers he absolutely has to save that other boy. Sam and Tucker help him gather clues, he starts to remember a bit more. He remembers the word ahki and realizes that the other boy is his brother!! Which just really enhances Dannys need to save him from the murder death cult. Eventually Tucker finds a picture of Damian Wayne and Danny is like thats him. Thats my brother.

Wait.

Bruce Wayne is his brothers dad???

Bruce Wayne is a rich fruitloop like Vlad obviously, so he is probably a member of the murder cult. Danny has to rescue his brother from the illuminati.

Cue Sam going to a socialite dinner in gotham much to her parents delight. Getting close to Damian by talking about animal rights, slipping him some sleeping pills in his vegan food. Tucker hacking into the gala and causing a commotion. Danny lugging an unconscious Damian out of the Gala and into the GAV ( no, his parents dont know why he borrowed the car or where he is).

Damian wakes up and immediately tries to attack Danny thinking hes a clone. Danny is like woah shit no its me! Its your brother. Damian is like Danyal is dead. Danny is like obviously not. Now chill out im rescuing you from the cult.

Damian, who has been secrectly mourning his twin for years, has never heard anyone call the League of Assassins a cult. He has to reevaluate a lot of things while Danny drives the GAV out of Gotham as fast as he can. Danny explains his whole backstory and how he is sorry he didnt come to save Damian earlier, his memories were gone but he had never forgotten how important Damian was to him. Damian doesnt do emotions on a good day and is unable to handle that like a normal person.

"Father isnt part of the cult, Danyal."

"Hes a billionaire from Gotham, of course he is!"

Damian who has fought many rich people from gotham, all of whom were evil, tries to find an explanation that isnt 'our dad is batman'. Danny isnt listening to any of it, promising Damian that he will be safe from the murder cult in Amity.

Damian eventually gets out that their mother was in the cult and their father didn't know about them. Danny pulls the GAV over and looks at Damian.

"Did i just kidnap you for no reason?"

"It was a kind gesture at least Danyal."

"Fuck. I just kidnapped bruce wayne's kid in the middle of a gala, am i super villain now?"

"Not if you take me home. Father will understand Danyal."

"I dont want to go to jail!"

Damian gives Danny the address to Wayne Manor and Danny drives to Bristol.

When they walk inside Damian now has to explain the whole 'had a dead brother i never told you about' thing to a less than amused batfam.

Danny introduces himself to Bruce and says that he has an adopted family back in illinois, but that he would be happy to get to know Bruce, also sorry about the kidnapping i dont normally do that i thought you were part of the illumimati and i had to rescue my brother.

Bruce just hopes this kid is normal.

(Hint: he's not)

sensitivesweetheart!reader x bsf!spencer

this is my first time creating a fully fledged au! lemme know what you think! send me asks on what youd like to see about this au!

warnings!! - mentions of sex, making out, physical abuse is past relationships (r!) , spencers broken leg.

sensitivesweetheart!reader and spencer have been bestfriends since middle school. shes always been absolutely infatuated with spencer, and he with her. so it shouldnt be a problem now that they live together..right?

spencer is a huge germaphobe, and hates physical touch. but when it comes to you, its a completely different story. you'd always been touchy, hugging and curling up into spencer every chance you get. during movies, or one of his particularly long documentaries, you can be found curled up in his arms, him patting your head, holding you tight.

at this point you and spencer are basically married, but still deny it and say youre just bestfriends. you both know there's no one else out there for you. and everyone else does too.

you and spencer occasionally kiss, i mean, who else would you want to kiss when you have spencer? you often makeout during his boring documentaries, as he explains his theories when you are taking breaks to catch your breath.

sensitivesweetheart!reader is always so torn when spencer has to leave for long cases. afterall how could you not miss him? you cry and beg him not to leave each time, he cries with you every single time, placing kisses all over you, promising he'll be back safe and sound as soon as possible.

when spencer broke his leg, you screamed at him. not because you were mad at him, but because you were mad at yourself for letting him go to work that day, a million thoughts rushing through your head on how you could've prevented this, crying and apologizing, holding him tight.

and when he is cleared, oh you have the best night of your life, he's thrusting deep, telling you how much he missed being able to do all of the work, mummiring about how much he loves you throughout.

sensitivesweetheart!reader has a lot of trauma connected to past relationships. including one relationship where a boyfriend of hers, put his hands on her. once spencer saw let alone a scratch on her, he showed up at the guys apartment, threatening to shoot him if he didnt skip town. spencer isnt a violent man, but he's willing to do whatever it takes to ensure that his girl is safe.

and when you and spencer do argue, you flinch, like your scared he'd hit you. not because he was being aggressive, but arguing in your head leads towards a pattern, a pattern that spencer would never follow. as soon as he catches a glimpse of you twitching, he stops in his tracks, shaking his head, holding back tears, immideatly pulling you close. mumbling "dont think i'd ever hurt you. im not that kind of person. i love you."

though most times its just sweet silly stuff, joking around, listening to music, reading together, baking, and, forcing him to go on late night trips with you to the bathroom to pee because your terrified of the dark.

and spencer never lets you think that you're not enough, let alone too much for him. or anyone. if you even dare to mutter a string of apologies for being you, he's shutting all of it down immediately. "sweetheart, i don't plan on leaving. ever. you know this. so don't even worry your pretty little head. okay?" you nod in response as he pulls you in, sniffling into his chest.

[reijisteacup]

*a darker scenario* the Sakamakis and the Mukami boy's reaction to their s/o who has an ex who is obsessed with them and stalks them 24/7 which causes them not wanting to go out on dates with their Diaboy out of fear.

Of course💕 Thanks for enjoying the blog! Okay lets see💕

===============================

Sakamaki's

Shu Sakamaki:

Will literally get super protective over you. He may be lazy but he isn't going to let his s/o be in danger while he is around. Shu does not play about you. He will confront the ex after making sure you are safe.

*Stops in his tracks* Oi, I'm only going to say this one time. Leave my s/o alone or your skull is kissing the pavement. Are we clear?

Reiji Sakamaki:

Keeps it so professional. He is direct and clear with the ex and if the ex gets violent or our of hand then Reiji will make sure you are protected and safe. Reiji will read this man down to the point that your ex will want to leave because of embarrassment.

"You again? Why am I not surprised." *walks up to the ex stalking behind a wall* I request that you leave me and my s/o alone as your presence is despicable to be around."

Laito Sakamaki:

Stalking your ex as your ex stalks you. Laito is highly intelligent. He already figured out about your ex stalking you before you realized and has studied everything about him. He keeps familiars around in case he isnt near you to protect you but Laito handles it without your knowledge. Laito gets real scary when people touch things that are his.

"I see you have taken an interest in my sweet bitch-chan~. She is adorable isnt she. *walks up to your ex and gets in there face* Unfortunately they are mine and mine alone and nobody is getting in the way of that."

Kanato Sakamaki:

Uhhh your ex would be dead. I would be surprised if anybody decided to bother you considering you have a yandere crazy teddy loving boyfriend by your side. But if an ex does decide to stalk and harass you to the point of you being in fear. Kanato will absolutely make sure he doesnt exist in your presence anymore. He is the only one you can be afraid of.

"Ne Teddy, this is what happens when foolish humans mess with what mine. My beautiful doll shouldn't be harassed by some scum. *gets close to his face* Dolly is mine."

Ayato Sakamaki:

Ayato not going for it. Ayato would be like "this the person you chose to be with before me?" But he would defend you and make sure you are okay. He not tolerating anybody bothering his pancake.

"Y/n I can handle it. You are dating the Ore-sama." *He smirks while looking at you* "As for you, ill break you if you come between whats mine."

Subaru Sakamaki:

Mama there's a car behind you. Subaru is crashing tf out if he finds out somebody messing with you. A fight would break loose if he sees your ex in person watching you. Big crashout and you gone either have to sit and watch or try to get some help before your boyfriend kills the guy.

"Hey whatcha looking you idiot! Stay the hell away from us or ill kick your ass!" *Stalks over yelling at your ex which causes a scene* *you sweat-drop as you realize that you are going to stop a fight*

Mukami's

Ruki Mukami:

50 shades of grey here will literally kill the guy but I doubt you would even realize that your ex is even stalking you in the first place. He is intuitive and very observant but he definitely don't play about his livestock. In the event that you are afraid of your ex stalking you then he will intervene and make sure this obsessive behavior stops quickly.

"Livestock, cover your eyes for me dear."

Kou Mukami:

Kou's fans will literally harassed the guy for messing with Kou himself but it will definitely be for you and your protection. The doc martens are LACED up and his fans will fight your ex themselves with Kou's help of course. However, if let's say his fans do not like you because you are with Kou then Kou will literally lose his shit. Kou is another scary one when it comes to his loved ones kind of similar to Laito. He already picked up on it way before you found out.

"Listen here...I know my kitten is very beautiful but I will kill you if i spot you near her again. You understand?" *His left eye glows red.

Yuma Mukami:

He likes to assert dominance and will literally either fight the guy or make your ex jealous on purpose. If your ex is a wimp then he is making him jealous so he gets the hint but if your ex is making you afraid to go out on dates then he is whooping his ass.

"Oi, keep ya eyes away from sow or you're seeing the mud! Tch, weird asshole."

Azusa Mukami:

Poor baby isnt a fighter but we all know what happened when azusa had Kanato's teddy bear. He will do any and everything to save you from your ex. If that takes him getting hurt then he will do for you. Azusa will try to be smart or sneaky with how he will keep your ex away from you. May take something from someone else and pin it on your ex or even use 'his bullies' to solve it.

*Has a knife towards your exes neck* "Leave......eve alone..."

Huskerdust headcanons (Angel individually, Husk individually, both as a couple)

TW: Valentino, abuse/sa mentions

• sometimes, Angel wakes up in the middle of the night, screaming, after having a nightmare (always about Val, like if he was there in the room with them). Husk comforts him and cuddles him.

• As said in this post, everyone in the Hotel assumes that Angel is a dumb bimbo, but he's not only extremely intelligent, but also, Husk was the only one who saw and admired his intelligence.

• Angel's is secretly a big nerd: he's a lover for cinema, theatre, art, literature and is overall cultured. He's also VERY GOOD at math, like really good, it was one of his jobs in the mafia family thing whatever, so he always helps Charlie with the paperwork and management of the Hotel.

• Angel doesn't recieve any of the money his movies make. He isnt paid cash, he isn't paid after the release. It all goes to Val, and also to the other Vees. He was absolutely dependent on Val before he got to the Hotel, so he started stealing money or doing SW in the streets away from Val;

• Husk knows this. This is why he always gave free drinks to Angel, he knew Angel could rarely pay for it.

• Angel made very clear to Husk to never text or call him while he is at work. Val cannot see his messages. This is why he even has Husk's notifications silenced. He explained to Husk, "only text me if I text you first". He can't risk putting Husk and himself in danger. This is why Husk keeps his phone by his side every day, to answer Angel as fast as he can in case Angel texts him.

• Angel likes being the little spoon, but he also loves when Husk sleeps with his head deeped between his chest floof.

• Angel talks a LOT, and loudly, specially about his interests. Valentino always thought it was annoying and told him to shut up many times; Husk, however, loves to hear him. He could listen to Angel's voice all day.

• Sometimes, Angel just wants to cuddle and touch Husk in bed, without any sexual intention. Every time he would try to do this with Val, Val would take it to the sexual side, ignoring everything Angel says or does.

• The first time Husk and Angel had sex, it was amazing and all, but Angel truly cried when he recieved aftercare. He knows what the concept of aftercare is, but barely remembers if it ever happened to him. If he recieved after before, it was probably once or twice before he got involved with Val.

• Both Angel and Husk love jazz/swing. Angel also tought Husk how to love modern pop and slutty pop music, and honestly Husk hates to admit he loves it.

• They're absolutely kinky in bed. Angel finally have the right to explore his kinks and sexuality in a safe space with his lover, without being forced or treated as an object.

being so fr i genuinely think that the dead three are an excellent case study in Divine Madness

like im not well versed in forgotten realms lore by ANY means but i DO enjoy veering into headcanon worldbuilding territory sooo. take everything with a grain of salt and only keep what u feel like skdjskdjsnfj

we all know bhaal is like. kind of COMICALLY self destructive and stupid, shooting his pawns in the foot at the drop of a hat seemingly just for the sake of pointless cruelty, and is obsessed with murder even to the point of sacrificing his other domain of ritualized death for the purpose of killing the world (orin should NOT be as penalized as she is for how strictly she does in fact adhere to bhaal's doctrine). and while this can be explained as differences in writers portrayal and sympathy for the character of bhaal (larian in particular seems to take a dim view of bhaal, and of gods in general), spinning it into a consistent character is a fun writing challenge

and personally i think its just a long form example of how mortal minds are not innately prepared for the leap of being an autonomous individual capable of making personal decisions and having complicated nuanced feelings about a variety of ideologies to becoming a Conceptual Embodiment responsible for a fundamental force present in the world at large. like you stop BEING a person, you stop being able to change your opinions on certain things because... well, you ARE those things. can the wind stop feeling like the wind?

so bhaal achieves divinity and inherits aspects of jergal and it utterly rends his mind asunder. his erratic behavior is a result of his human mind trying to cope with divine power, and so its no surprise that he turns to that same coping method many angry dissatisfied violent people turn to: familial abuse. bhaal has a direct line of connection through blood ties to his spawn, and its a line he can draw on whenever he pleases to influence their behavior or communicate with them. every progeny hears him as clear as a cleric, regardless of their will or feelings towards him, as long as that blood connection remains. its why hes so obsessed with producing spawn despite being a god of murder: on a personal level, he embodies those cycles of abuse and how they keep perpetuating themselves, not as a divine aspect but as a personal choice as a result of his own actions and the consequences bhaal experiences. on a broader scale, you CANT redeem bhaal, not just because he is an evil aligned god of murder, but because redemption would require bhaal to meaningfully confront that his ambition to pursue divinity has ruined his life, and that temporary relief like exerting power over his family cant actually solve the core problem that he isnt actually capable of handling the power and responsibility he sought out. so he would prefer to keep driving his spawn to slaughter and self destruction and ruining his own schemes because that maintains the illusion of bhaal being an influential powerful deity in control of his emotions. the success of his schemes actually doesnt matter nearly as much as that illusion.

it doesnt matter that the dark urge was on the brink of achieving his self described final goal of killing the world, because they acted outside of his control through allying with a baneite and enacted a scheme they came up with themselves. it doesnt matter that bhaal explicitly encouraged orin to betray them, bhaals goals are falling short of success so the dark urge needs to get it together and finish the scheme they started in his name. this is an absolute nonsense train of logic, because your punished twice over, first for making a plan that benefits bhaal, and then AGAIN for BEING PUNISHED THE FIRST TIME! if the end goal was actually achieving the death of the world via the absolute, this is a totally fucking stupid way of going about it, but it makes sense as an extension of an abusers inability to cope with life stressors outside of inflicting abuse.

we need to remember that there is no inherent series of personality traits that defines an abuser, only actions. there is no circumstances that make an abuser an abuser, and there is nothing a victim does to justify or deserve abuse. an abuser acts like they do because abuse benefits and rewards them, and they are unwilling to actually surrender those benefits to treat their victims with the dignity they deserve, because thats difficult and hard and not as immediately rewarding. and generally, the most common reward for abuse is stress relief. abusing a victim feels good for the abuser, it relieves anger, it passes blame away from them onto a subject they can act on (instead of taking personal responsibility or acknowledging depersonalized systemic forces), it relieves stress, its an exercise of power and control in a world where those things are not easily accessible. understanding bhaal as an abuser provides the thread of consistency that makes a series of incoherent actions and reasonings reflect a mindset a person could conceivably have, and the stress he is trying to relieve has an easy source in the form of the very divinity bhaal sought after so greedily

to a lesser extent, this aspect of ruining divinity is, i feel, present in all three of them, its just that bhaals manifestation of it is exceptionally explosive and violent. bane seems completely and utterly consumed by his aspect of tyranny, to the extent that little remains of his personality that isnt a cunning, ambitious power seeking manipulator who accrues and hoards power at all costs, even consuming his son in his entirety for his own resurrection. that myrkul inherited so much of jergals portfolio and has increasingly mimicked jergals personality is no coincidence. the three adventurers who challenged jergal all those centuries ago have been annhilated utterly, the people they once were swallowed entirely within their divine aspects. its ruined all of them, to varying degrees, but its bhaals obsession with maintaining himself at any cost, his awareness of his own precarious position and tenuous grip on his own divinity that has him acting out so aggressively

[bloo-the-dragon]

I've been seeing some people express concern for Bloodmoon on this post SO i'm going to throw in some extra context and Bloodmoon lore to clear some things up

Honestly i probably should have done this a long time ago BUT ANYWAYS-

The sudden change for them was very.. shocking to put it kindly. A very drastic change but after the initial shock Bloodmoon is very euphoric - Just happy and whimsical and freed because they're in a new form that just feels right even if they havn't fully come to terms as to why yet.

But existential crisis still boils under the surface and it's not til sometime later that it breaks out.

This is Bloodmoon shortly after the transformation -

- cheery, silly, happy. Sun and Moon arnt worried for too long because they seem happy (and in a way they're kind of flattered that their fae friend decided to take a form similar to their own - they've met many kids who dressed up like/wanted to be like the glamrocks afterall so this isnt too odd for them)

This is when the existential crisis/questioning moment really hits home

(happens while they are out too which only quickened it what with anxiety being around people and all)

Now the reason they changed in the first was because they realised they had fallen in love (platonically) with Sun and Moon. Their shapeshifting specifically is very emotional based and will trigger usually when high emotion is felt. This is the biggest physical change they have ever had however, and the most impactful.

And why did they turn red like the Bloodmoon you might wonder? Well 1. Lunar Eclipse, or Eclipse vibes specifically and 2. Have you ever heard of the red string? ~

But yeah right after the change they would be too caught up in the euphoria of feeling whole and comfortable in a new body and identity to really acknowledge the panic beneath the surface. And the crisis kicks in over time because they had been very much the non-partnering type before and never saw theirself ever truly falling for anyone (again even in a platonic sense)

They would talk to Sun and Moon after this, and while feelings would not be outright admitted there would absolutely be understanding there and acceptance which is all they really need. They become qpp's over time after that.

Also i mentioned in the tags of my last post that this is basically irreversable and thats because the only way it could be reversed is if they stopped loving Sun and Moon (which ofc they could never)

They loved them enough to make them part of theirself - and in a way Sun and Moon do the same when they get tails installed to match (I'm a sentimental sap and tails are fun)

They're robots too so one thing that they have in common with a fae is they can also alter their forms to an extent ;D tho in this case they just wanted to have tails so they could be more like Bloodmoon.

Both parties adopting pieces of each other into their respective selves/identities out of love shared for each other.

OK question, who is everyone personal favorite, well written, mentally ill character?

Bc to this day nobody has topped Lucas Baker for me. I was kind of thinking about this Re7 au I had with an old friend today and started thinking about him again. Capcom has always done such a wonderful job with writing their characters, but something about Lucas makes me think about him every once in awhile.

It's hard to explain in words but the way he was written is just so scary. Not because he's got a bunch of molded henchmen and that creepy barn, but because he's so unpredictable and yet so smart and tactical. The kids a genius and shows it all throughout the game and his DLC, but he's also probably got some form of severe schizophrenia that has clearly gone untreated for near his whole life. He's incredibly smart and resourceful though - as in most cases - is limited by his mental illness.

The whole thing was a clear episode and I almost wanna pressume it happened before the doctors visit. Though that isn't really the point, I think alot of his issues stem from Jack. Not because he's ill too, but because he doesn't take it seriously. I live in the south myself and the stigma around men and their mental health here is so awful I don't even wanna start to imagine what it would do to a kid with schizophrenia who's dad choses to ignore it. I personally think Lucas would have grown up to be alot better of a person, hell, he might not have been in the house he was so well off if Jack had taken the time to acknowledge him. From just the look of the house and the way he acts in the daughter's (?? Sorry i seriously haven't played this game in almost a year) DLC really gives me that 'man of the house' 'men don't have feelings' kinda feel. I can only assume, the only other people in their home being women, that Jack really tried to drill that mentality into Lucas and completely glanced over Marguerites worries about him.

I almost feel bad for him. He's smart, talented, "gifted" if you must, though clearly limited by who I'm guessing to be Jack. There's a whole little story in game that really stuck out to me, when you're in Lucas's old room looking through his old journal entries he writes about Marguerite taking him for what I assumed was probably an MRI or maybe a CT scan of his head showing she clearly thought something was wrong with him. In an entry pretty close to that one he talks about his friend, Oliver, who keeps messing with him so he locks him in the attic. He talks about how he could hear him banging and screaming for help for about a day before he stopped and was eventually presumed dead to Lucas after he started to be able to smell his corpse. (I actually feel as crazy as him rn I can't find it but ik somewhere there's a document talking about how bad the smell was to him. I almost wanna say he talked about something dripping from the attic too on the same page but idk maybe i made that up)

EDIT: after 18 million years I found it so I was in fact not just loosing my mind

"Untreated schizophrenia can cause severe problems that affect many areas of life. It can disrupt how the brain works, interfering with thoughts, memory, senses, and behaviors. This can lead to difficulties in daily life, such as trouble organizing thoughts and behaving in ways that increase the risk of injury or illness." Which would explain Lucas's entire character during the game- minus the mold.

Ik this isnt my usual posting and an absolute yap fest but I seriously needed to talk about him again. He's so well written it makes me wanna foam at the mouth.

Lilo & Stitch Spoilers

Has anyone mentioned that in the new live action Lilo & Stitch that Nani completely tears apart "Ohana" because 'We got left behind'? Literally one of the instances in which they talk about Ohana, Nani says that they got left behind and that that isn't reality.

Let me break down everything about the new movie that they got so bad and encourage you not to see this movie. Do not spend money on it. Let it crash out. Everything that you have heard about it is true and it gets worse.

1.) Jumba doesn't sound like Jumba. Im not even talking about his accent being missing (which, it absolutely is missing. There was no effort made in voice acting him)- but this voice just does not SOUND like Jumba. Its not fitting for Jumba. He sounds like he should be named Ted.

2.) The scene where Pleakley and the Grand Council woman talk and then go to Jumba's cell is taken out. Instead it's Jumba talking directly to her then Pleakley showing up in a cowboy outfit (which is fine)

3.) Pleakely is EXCITED to go supervise Jumba on Earth. He gets excited and calls it a vacation if I remember right.

4.) Lilo still has some of her Weird Girl tendencies, but she moreso registers as 'troublemaker' more than 'weird kid'. When Nani is fired from the fakey Luau there is no discussion about how the manager was actually a vampire that wanted Nani to join his legion of the undead to make sure Lilo didn't feel responsible for Nani being fired. Instead, Nani kinda snaps at Lilo.

5.) The "Go to your room!" "I'm already in my room" scene was a very poorly done scene. It was to fast paced and felt like a first take honestly. The original voice actors did a GREAT job. This was mediocre at best.

6.) Jumba at the end of the movie, is apprehended as a criminal and taken back to jail, while Pleakely still stays on Earth. Also Lilo dang near murders him tbh.

7.) The Ugly Duckling scene is actually replaced with Lilo going through a scrapbook with Stitch, talking about how smart and accomplished Nani is and how hard she's worked, then some baby pictures of Lilo, then pictures of her parents and asking Stitch "Do you have a family?"

8.) From what it seems to me, Nani actually GOT a job? As a surfing instructor? And the social worker is STILL on her case. Because 'Think about what's best for Lilo'. Why is this? Because she wants Nani to give up Lilo to CPS so that the state will pay for Lilo's healthcare. Because after the scene where Lilo is under water and about to drown, she spits up water, Nani screams for an ambulance, and they go the the hospital. There was a mention of health insurance earlier in the movie right before Nani screams "before I kill you" at her little sister. But it comes up again now (which I stopped paying attention at various points because I was either bored or mad) when I thought at least that they were supposed to have health insurance for a week after she lost her job at the luau for the social worker to tell Nani (who seems to have landed a job as a surfing instructor) 'There is a way to get the state to pay for this but you have to give up Lilo' and then it trails off to Nani ignoring the social worker, looking at Lilo through the hospital window and saying out loud 'Goodbye'.

9.) Nani just ISNT Nani. She's mean. This version of Nani is a snot- if they had made all these changes but still kept Nani being NANI then it would be bearable as a movie. Its made clear from very on in the movie that she wanted to be a Marine Biologist (not a professional surfer) and that she had a full ride scholarship to 'The best school' for Marine biology as if some of the BEST SCHOOLS FOR MARINE BIOLOGY ARENT BASED OUT OF HAWAII??!! And she just seems really bitter that she isn't able to do it. Hawaii is like, THE place to be for a Marine biology degree!!

10.) Lilo actively encourages her to leave her because 'thats what mama and papa would have wanted. They told me.' then it's laughed about like its some jolly good time.

11.) Nani doesn't even actually see Lilo trying to show her the thing with Stitch essentially being a biological record player. You remember how in the original its played as a fun but informative gag where Nani just wakes up to it, sees it happening, and actually pays attention to Lilo and what she's trying to show her? Yeah in this version Nani doesn't even look- no she's doing paperwork at a table and just tells Lilo 'I love that song'- meanwhile Lilo is trying to get her to actually LOOK at what she's trying to show her and it comes across as Nani being EXTREMELY dismissive and neglectful.

Im sure there is plenty more things I could nitpick at. Pleakley didn't feel like Pleakley. Nani didn't feel like Nani. Jumba just straight up WASN'T Jumba. Stitch didn't have much depth.

This was the worst live action reboot Ive seen. It's absolutely disgusting. DO NOT WATCH IT! It's a dumpster fire! They have taken one of the BEST movies they have come out with and one of their most wholesome messages and tore it to actual shreds. Nani LITERALLY told Lilo the Ohana thing wasn't reality (before the scene where stitch whacks Nani in the phase with the freezer door when they are talking about Ohana again and once again, Nani is being absolutely awful and talking to Lilo as if she wishes she'd shut up instead of actually listening). It's NOT worth your time, watching it isn't even enjoyable because you just keep getting angry- at the people who wrote it to be this way, AND at Nani's character. Its not worth your time, money, energy, and I haven't had a movie make me this angry in I can't remember how long.

This is my second and last post on the matter- just because I want everyone else to know exactly how disgusting it is to really try to encourage you to just not watch it. It's just not worth it. The only good I have to say about it is that some of the visuals are good and Stitch's design is cute. They added in a homicidal axolotl alien on the ship with the grand councilwoman that made me laugh one time. They took out every other bit of substance. Any positivity between Nani and Lilo seems forced because Nani is just absolutely awful.

Honestly this movie feels like anti-hawaii pro-government propagana. Just completely gutted the heart and soul of the whole story to promote 'Leave behind your family. Go on. Leave your family behind. Native families shouldn't be together. Give your children up to our lovely American foster care system. They're a burden to you. Children are burdens. You can't live your dreams if you're saddled with a child.'

This version of Nani literally saw Lilo as a burden, and not something worth fighting for. This Nani wouldn't scream at Cobra Bubbles about how Lilo NEEDS her, no, she thrives on leaving her young sister behind to be raised by unfamiliar people and a character that didn't even exist in the original movie that was made SOLELY for the purpose of passing Lilo off to her.

wait i also want 2 know what u think abt dumbledore bc i think he's kinda controversial in the marauders fandom

HIII TY 4 THE ASKKK

ily but i think im The WORST person to ask abt " controversial " xters ESP if they're men and old bc I don't rlly care abt them then nd umm....dumbkedore is both But 4 U sp deal ill gather my braincell and try to talk abt him

Tw: absolute incoherent thing below!! Pls dont read 4 ur sake

I font think hes a bad person :/ I think he's also like one of the only TRUE (canon) morally gray ppl in the series ? I'm not sure tho. I think he rlly does believe what he's doing / has done is genuinely better 4 every1 and he is making a net good.

I feel like the comments / ppl bashing him 4 "making" harry live w the durselys is soo stupid bc umm I MAY have just hallucinate that part but didn't dumbledore explain why he did that?? He had to make Harry live w them or else Harry would die?? Did I make up a whole new subplot in a book again :/ hopefully not bc I thot it was sorta prtty clear that dumbledore hated / looked down on the durselys for their treatment of harry.

i think also he spent alpt of time Not fighting grindkeward (?) instead of imm defeating him but like ?? They were friends ?? Idk abt yall but I wouldn't jump out of my boots to duel my ex-frnd possibly to the death ALSO y couldn't he just catch a break?? Why does HE have to b the one to fight him ? What abt the others ?? Smh can't a man rest 🙄🙄

ummm he did like prepare harry to slaughter himself wc is bad but I do think that the decision wouldve been Harry's in the end? Does that make sense?? But yeah in the end of the day even tho he did care for harry his treatment of harry is v shitty and if i was harry i wouldnt name my child after him.

With that being said he was lowk v progressive in comp w the other wizards ?? Am I making sense ?? Like he let a werewolf enter the school and later hired him as a tr, he was prtty kind to muggleborns from like THE EARLYY DAYS (idk his name but he was rlly nice fo the loser who wrote that article abt him when he died), he let hagrid a half giant not only go 2 school bit also gave him a second chance as a groundskeeper and a tr (wc i dont think he shouldve done bc hagrid lowkma shitty tr but i prefer him to snape srry idc), he gave up immortality bc there was a chance voldemort would like abuse it. ??and obvi he shldnt have his dick sucked for that but like ?? Hes NOT evil (i think) ? But ALSO him giving th 2nd chances is lowk not Good of him smiles bc him accepting snape as a tr, not expelling Tom riddle, etc etc. (I dont have anymore egs)

Idk I think alot of the marauder fans just read the books once (which is their choice idc) and read a shit ton of fanfics and inorder 4 regulus to b their BAMF they need dumbledore to b evil (?) Might b making that up too idk man but i litr saw some1 go on a whole rant (was ages ago but confusion is eternal) abt somefhing stupid on how in the 1st book (?) There was a troll in thr dungeons and then dumbledore told everyone to go 2 the dorms and they said that the slytherin dorms IS in the dungeons (i think this hsppened in the era ofnthe "slytherin supremacy 😎😎" posts or smth) and it was this whole rant talking abt dumbledore always forgets the slytherins bc their dorms is in the dungeons w troll !1!1!1! But like i think tgere is more than 1 dungeon(?) (Or when quirrel said troll in the dungeons he was talking abt dungeons plural (?) Like the troll is in the vidinty of all the dungeons in which case ok but the poster i saw didnt make their point like that (they said the dunegon (singular) w the troll = slytherin dungeon) ) also the whole debate on him vs snape is sooo bad it makes me cry bc srry i will 4evr prefer dumbledore to snape (yeah both of them show favoritm which isnt good but like dumbledore favouritsim. = giving gryff tons of points (which i personally dont think is unfair ?? But idk i do get the pt of ppl saying it is unfair) and umm idk i might b blacking out but i cant rmmbr any other sp thing? He gives harrylessons but like hlw else would harry kno th etuff he knos ykwim??. And snape favouritism = allowing ppl to bully ppl not in his house, bullying students not in his house, threatening to poison the pet of his student, etc etc)

but i do think he is the og whimsy guy and if we can babygirlify canon rgulus we can do it to him

just came back from watching transformers one

OH MY FUCKINGHSHDISWJKSKWMSLW THAT WAS OHHH THAT WAS SOMETHING

(SPOILERS AHEAD LIKE I KNOW THAT MOST OF THE PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY WATCHED IT AND ONLY SLOWPOKES LIKE ME HAVENT BUT JUST IN CASE)

PaaleOEKSKWOWKAOWOWORIEEB I CANT CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT. IT WAS BETTER MUCH FUCKING BETTER THAN I EXPECTED IT TO BE.

ohh i dont even know where to start… well i guess i should state the obvious: GRAPHICS ARE ABSOLUTELY GOAT. its not just about textures, colors and lighting (which are peak honestly i wanted to eat every single frame), but about… how do i say… the feeling of size, volume, construction. its hard to explain, but i think you’ll get what i mean - the way characters feel, the way environment feels, the way interactions between characters and between characters and environment feel. things feel REAL and this is. just fucking AWESOME.

but ofc good graphics can’t save the movie from being garbage. BUT THE PLOT CAN.

honestly, i did not expect the plot to be SO GOOD (especially considering that for the last decade the only transformers we’ve seen on big screens was bayverse… that isnt famous for deep story)

At first, this whole new vision of the great war’s origin is a HUGE breeze of fresh air (so huge its not just a breeze anymore ig). the whole story with war with quintessons, sentinel’s betrayal (ASSHOLE), and miners basically being cogless slaves… damn thats something. (also i especially liked the idea of starscream being a leader before megatron and talking to him as to somebody of lower position. and then fleeing. this mf just cant be the leader. anyway the whole higher guard thing is the topic for another talk)

but wait wait there is orion and d-16’ relationship. probably THE BEST thing in this movie. its oh its just… well, at first, these are probably versions of optimus and megatron that have the closest relationship in the whole franchise. and thats just simply because they start as equals: just two miners who are working together in the dangerous environment almost like slaves, and take care of each other. but their relationships are so tender, so caring… because they don’t really have anything besides their friendship ig? well ofc there are dreams of finding the matrix and taking iacon out of crisis so they don’t really have to work in the mines…. but, its all just dreams, the only real thing that they have right here and right now is each other.

but then came the power. oh yes it did. and you know what happened next. megatron chose revenge because HE was deceived. HIS whole life was a lie. bro doesn’t really think about other cybertronians as much as he cares about himself and oh god it shows. while optimus thought about the people and only then about himself. and thats the true reason behind their conflict, its not the question of violent/pacifistic way to achieve the goal, its about what matters to them.

and we could actually see that even before the team gets their cogs:

“did you do it for me?”

“no, i did it for us”

this “us” is not just they two, this “us” is the whole cast of miners. i mean considering just WHAT participation in this race meant for miners. they arent worthless slaves, they are capable of doing better than this! this is what orion wanted to show. both to his fellow miners and to regular cybertronians.

well im out of words for now. its clear as day that ill come back to tf one more than one more time. ive got really inspired and yes its going to last.

thank you if you actually read all of this. im so glad that somebody listened :3333

I have been doing this meta analysis thing for a long time now and one thing that I have always tried to make clear in meta analysis is that for it to be taken seriously you must keep your personal biases out of it. You must come at it as objective as possible.

Rant under the cut

Its not always easy to do when you are dealing with difficult topics, or shining unfavourable lights on characters you love, or coming to conclusions that you werent expecting (recent meta discussions about Morpheus in the Sandman comics would fall into these categories).

What meta analysis should never be used for is to back up ship wars or specifically to shame fandoms for liking certain characters. If the meta isnt providing valid evidence to support the interpretations, and instead has fallen into name calling and mockery of fandom, its no longer valid meta.

I got this ALL the time in SPN fandom. Destiel was a huge fandom but as meta writers we stuck with what we were given by the source material and interpreted it with valid evidence. We understood that multiple interpretations were possible but we made sure that whatever we were analysing made sense and had some source backing. This wasnt always the case because meta writers are not a monolith, but the bigger blogs who wrote meta frequently at least understood this and would not be stretching to support their own claims if canon didnt back it up. Now no one is perfect of course, but the point is, proper meta writers understand that where they make a claim or interpretation of the source material, they have to site examples and evidence to back up their claims and also take into consideration any evidence to the contrary.

The people who hated destiel and made that their entire personalities didnt do that so much. I read a lot of their meta out of curiosity and every time I was baffled by where they were getting their claims. 'Destiel is necrophilia" was a big one which canon disproved almost straight away in season 5. "Destiel is rape" was another because Cas was using Jimmy as a vessel and yet canon confirmed Jimmy died at the end of season 4. Cas' body was remade by God in season 5 and has remained his own ever since. These are just two of the ridiculous examples supposed "meta writers" among the destiel hater communities would come up with and still use today.

I find it extremely infuriating when I see character/ship hate loosely disguised as meta analysis. I can give people the benefit of the doubt a lot of the time, as fandoms are usually highly emotional spaces, but when there is zero canon evidence to support the claims, when connections are being made on the absolute thinnest of threads, and when far more obvious interpretations are being clearly ignored to support certain viewpoints in such a stunningly obvious case of confirmation bias I have to throw in the towel and stop taking said meta seriously.

One thing I have loved about Sandman fandom so far is the meta. It's such a rich text to analyse, and the show adds an entirely new level to it which makes it all the more enjoyable. I've made no secret of my support for Dreamling and I wrote a very long meta series on Dreamling and how the show in particular uses certain tropes, symbolism, visual storytelling cues, and music, to name a few, to overload a 25 minute sequence with queer coding. It is completely understandable to me why anyone going into the show even without thinking about shipping, would feel like Dreamling hit them like a brick to the face. The creators weren't subtle with it.

Its also totally valid to find romantic interpretations of other pairings within the Sandman. I personally think Morpheus x Johanna was laid on pretty thickly. Morpheus x Lucienne is equally an interesting ship to analyse. But heres the thing, if you ship these other ships and are frustrated that Dreamling has "taken over" thats valid. I get it. I would like more focus on the other characters too. I would particularly like to talk about Lucienne x Gault and have a meta piece in progress about them.

Whats not okay however is for other shippers and people frustrated with Dreamling to go the way of the Destiel antis. Dont make shit up that has no basis in canon just because you need some moral high ground to shit all over the ship you hate. Don't call fans that see Dreamling "deluded" for seeing it. They aren't deluded. It's right there in the subtext. Dont resort to name calling and "gotchas" and use inflammatory language to bait people. And please, I'm begging you, stop claiming that people who ship Dreamling are somehow all overly fragile white racists. You're wrong.

The racism discussions about Hob's past have their place, but these things ARE being discussed, if anything I feel this fandom has done a far better job of handling the issues of slavery than another popular fandom has (looking at you OFMD). No one is forgiving Hob for his slaver past. But you have to acknowledge that the entire point of the story in The Sandman is about change, and growth, and how we can become better people. As another excellent short meta post stated recently "we are more than the sum of our transgressions". The Sandman is all about the shades of grey. No one is morally righteous, but most characters are not completely morally bankrupt either.

Hob Gadling is a controversial character who is often misunderstood by fandom but anyone with proper critical thinking skills and a decent understanding of what meta analysis is, should understand that Hob is a metaphor for humanity first and foremost. He is the average everyman from the perspective of an Englishman and therefore above all else to understand Hob you have to look to England, to Englands history, and to its current status in the world. A lot of blood on its hands yes, but also at least a century of trying to make up for it, a leader in the world in human rights and trying to do better. I have to believe that about this country, so I believe it about Hob too. Whilst I'm not interesting in getting into huge geopolitical debates about England, I hope that we can all agree that the average Englishman today is not a blood thirsty evil slaver/rapist/murderer or whatever else ive seen people accuse Hob of being even in his modern era.

We can argue the faults of the show downplaying slavery for sure. Its a valid criticsm. We can argue that not enough time was given in the show to show that Hob had changed and regretted his former actions. We can critique these things based on what the show has and has not told us, and also pepper in information provided in the comics and what we know about future Hob panels as well.

But when it comes to the blank spaces in between frames, in between cut screens, we can do whatever we like. Because that is where meta analysis ends and fanfiction begins. You wanna write about Hob joining the abolitionist movement and fighting hard to end slavery? You can. You wanna write about him ignoring Dreams advice and continuing to be a brutal slaver right up until slavery was ended in England sure, you go for it. But don't call either of these "headcanons" meta analysis.

Dont use meta analysis as a cover to shit on fandom. The minute you resort to name calling and mockery its no longer meta. No matter how frustrated or upset you are with the current fandom situation. There is always space to criticise fandom. But ask yourself what your end goal is here? What are you trying to achieve? Is it truly because you are on a righteous path to end fandom racism? Or do you just really hate a popular ship and want people to stop shipping it? If it's the former, then focus on that, ask what solutions we can put in place? Where we can truly tackle it on a larger scale, raising awareness of things that people may not realise are racist but are common tropes in fandom (like how making female characters all mothers or sassy gay best friends is misogynistic or how certain stereotypes in fantasy creatures are anti semitic) but if its the latter, then its disingenuous to use racism in fandom as a shield to hide your ship hate. It reduces an important topic to something shallow and irrelevant.

In ending this rant I will just say this. I'm not interested in engaging further on this topic. I'm legit gonna start blocking if anyone attempts to twist my words here. The civil discussions on this matter ended when people started name calling and flinging around accusations without basis. I am more than happy to engage separately in ways to improve fandom spaces for poc, because thats important, but ship hating has no place in that discussion. Drop that aspect, and there'll be less resistance in these topics.

i don't know how you deal with curlfeather and splashtail being called groomers. i don't know how you do it. makes me want to pull my hair out. truly one of god's strongest soldiers for taking these characters who've been given the Irredeemable Untouchable Corrosive Toxic Slop title by the warrior cat fandom and actually having fun wiht them. thank you for your service

yeah you know its been a long 3 years for me its been really hard being so angry all the time and getting intense secondhand embarrassment every day from seeing everyone else say things that arent true but i can have a little fun with it now you know i can laugh at people sometimes i think everyone sees me as a hater when that isnt really true at all i complain about a lot of everything but its only because i care so much i care more than a lot of people and im not saying im better or that the 3 of them dont have other fans but really they all make me want to kill myself sometimes i really care too much its all i ever talk about anymore but i still dont feel like ive managed to say anything at all ive never had characters i feel so passionately for in such a personal sense i mean i do i have but its different here its really different and i was doing it first i have my own takes and opinions which people can disagree with me on thats fine thats ok but at the end of the day i do know what they 100% are not. theyre not groomers i havent made the curlfeather abuse doc ive joked about but frankly tldr if were going to view the story from the most black and white lense possible if we absolutely have to then i can say shes not a clear-cut abuser either not in the text no not even to frostpaw who would be her only victim if that were the case but she just isnt and i know it and some other people know it too and thats what matters we all just have to open our eyes and acknowledge and accept that the reason people act like this when it comes to her and splashtail in turn and the reason the books are written this way in the first place is because people hate women and youre just going to have to let that anger fuel you for the rest of your life that might sound terrible but you have to. i like to have fun and i like to love and i love you all

ocs tell me about your ocs

HEHEHE OK SOOO

my own universe ocs are a bunch of guys called the halloway detective society ; theyre a private investigator that takes cases specifically of a paranormal nature . theres lots of paranormal oddities in this world , ghosts (one of our detectives is one in fact !) and witches and demons called "mania" , to name a few . the unwritten story follows this very competent but very stupid found family as they solve various weird cases and get into all sorts of personal trouble despite the cases starting out not personal at all

im not gonna look for all my art of these guys rn (again , airport) maybe ill show that another time 🫡 but for now heres a rundown of our main three !!

milo rivera álvarez : main / pov character . built around my suicidalness . he wants to die so bad but he cant bc his bitch ass dad had some enemies n one of them cursed "his child to suffer lifetimes of tragedy" after milos bitch dad killed the guys kid horrifically . so he enlists the help of hds to break the curse so he can finally fucking dieee . of course hes poor as dirt so he cant actually pay them for their services so they form a contract that he works for them until they break the curse . his journey is abt learning how to live for others and then how to live for yourself ; by the end , although the curse is broken he doesnt kill himself . maybe he will one day , but not today

DOGCODED + KNIGHTCODED 💥💥 to the whole team but especially to julian , who hes mega gay for

julian chai : the little genius of the famed detective society . hes the best of the best at what he does , and absolute shit at everything else . and he doesnt mind it that way , even if its lowkey destroying his life . contrasting milo , julian has a very clear motivation for living - solving mysteries !! hes on earth to uncover curiosities , crack open the geodes in the world and investigate their sparkling jagged insides . he was made autism incarnate before i knew i was autistic . but hes so obsessed w his work thats its the only thing about himself that matters to him - it is him . theres nothing else there , what are you talking about . for someone who acts so high and mighty he has a pretty low selfimage once u talk to him for more than 3 seconds . julians journey is a mix of selfworth and opening ur heart to others n finding value in both urself and (more importantly for him lol) others

hes trans n named himself after the starring detective of a mystery series he was obsessed w when he was younger

mae valentine : most terrifying woman youll ever meet except shes a pathetic mess but she is still very much the most terrifying woman youll ever meet dont misunderstand . the concept for her character was "subverted girlboss trope" ; shes been moulded into the image of a callous violent uncaring woman and she wants to keep it that way . thats who she is . totally . she has to be this infallible fighter , because otherwise shes a lonely scared girl who doesnt know who she is . she hates herself , hates hurting her loved ones and innocents . she doesnt have to dig herself into this horribly spiky hole that harms everyone who goes near but she does . her journey isnt about finding who she is but starting the journey of finding who she is , opening the tiniest of wounds in herself to let in discovery

she has neon pink hair <3

also i must mention that she n milo have some wack toxic highschool girl best friends thing going on (they are whole adults .) where they love each other stupidly but theyre sickeningly jealous of each other to the point they lowkey cant stand each other but theyre also just two silly guys hanging out

(ive got a pinterest board for all of them btw its linked in my bio i think hehe ..)

Hey there! Ehmm.. sorry if this is really weird, I saw what you said and it made me feel really sad. I really feel many things you touched on and to see someone else going through the same things really confronted me. I’ve been pretty recently going back and forth constantly like oh I should stop drawing OCs. Surely no one’s that interested in it. But it’s your creation(s), one’s that you love and cherish and want to share and be seen by others in a genuine, meaningful way.

I know maybe this is just a moment of feeling down but it’s still real and I get it. The reason I’m even still doing what I’m doing is because someone else cares. People are interested and want to hear.

So I guess long winded way of saying like, if you’d like, if that’s okay, may I talk to and ask you about your OCs? I genuinely have an interest in them and the story you’re telling with them. I think you have a wonderful insight on Madcom and provide your own interesting takes to it, and I said it in my own post when someone asked me what inspired me, but I mentioned you. Seeing what you made wanted me to make my own stuff too.

If anything I’m just really sorry in advance if I’m awkward and bad to talk to, and again if I’ve overstepped at all.

I’m not sure if I should’ve sent this as a message, but I decided on an ask just in case you wanna like, clear it. Please don’t feel you need to respond !!!! Absolutely 0 hard feelings, genuinely.

i appreciate the words, thanks. i dont receive well meaning words well in the sense that i just hear them and dont have anything else to say to them, so im sorry if the gratitude sounds shallow. you dont have to apologize.

you can talk to me and ask me things if you want to. and that's very hard on the if you want to. i don't want this to be a thing out of feeling obligated or feeling bad because ive exposed a tender spot. i neglect to talk about this bothering because of that prospect.

i take a long time to talk about my ocs, and a lot of the time i wither out when i talk from exhaustion. from there if not shown interest again i assume i failed in that regard and what ive made isnt worth hearing about and i have to go back and refine things until its enough.

when youre in your own echo chamber of personal creation, it drives you up the walls when youre out of it, and when you speak nothing bounces back. i go back in there so its not quiet anymore

IVE LANDED MYSELF SOMEWHERE KINDA NOT GOOD!

A month or so ago i had to up and quit my job very short notice for health/safety concerns, this sudden jump and change in income left a huge gap in my financials and i was not prepared to leave a job i had spent two and a half years at but didnt have much of a choice.

we're a single income household (me, my partner and our kitties) so its nearly impossible to get out of a financial bind once ive found myself in one, nevermind the fact that its super difficult even without falling behind on bills.

I still work full-time, my weekly average is about 46-50h and i only really get one day off a week and i use that day to take care of myself and my household's emotional/physical well-being.

So right now my only other option is taking commissions and selling adopts/ocs on my toyhouse, which is not a place i thought i would find myself in.

If you could please share this around and click the read-more for more information on my pricing, answers to questions you probably have, and skillsets please do, we would greatly appreciate the help <333

POSSIBLE ANSWERS TO POSSIBLE QUESTIONS:

Why not apply for assistance/grants/etc? i did! unfortunately it takes a long time to get a response, and right now we have exactly 45usd to our names (43usd after i take the bus home from work tonight)

What will the money be used for? Great question, i'll tell you! Food, bill catchup and household necessities as we're running on the bare basics right now, im also willing to provide receipts/my personal ledger if youre worried about where its going!

Where can i see examples/ask questions/inquire? My DMs are open on ALL social medias and up-to-date examples are available as public posts or by request, but the easiest way to catch my attention is through discord or email because im kinda old-fashioned and i check those the most :)

What do you need from a commissioner? PROPER REFERENCES, pinterest boards are helpful but ultimately give me very little to work with so please come ready with a clear idea of what youre looking for (outfits, potential pose/scene ideas, examples, background refs, etc) so i can get it right on the first go!

What forms of payment are acceptable? I have Cashapp, Paypal, Chime and my partner has Venmo (and Zelle i think but i'd have to check on that), all payments are up-front and fully refundable IN THE EVENT IM unable to complete your order, so please dont commission me if you know you'll need the money in the future.

How long will it take for you to complete my commission? Great question! depending on the detail and work that needs to be done it can be anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, but i typically give an up-front deadline, currently im working on setting up a google-doc where you can check back daily to see where im at on your order!
