hopeless time loop. the way out isn’t to save everyone. the way out isn’t to save even one person. the way out isn’t to change anything. the way out is accepting how it happened the first time is how it always will be. that’s how you acted, that’s how they acted, that’s how you would have acted every time if you weren’t given the curse of hindsight. the way out is accepting you can’t fix the past; you can only forgive yourself for it.
#there's this game i love called little hope that plays with these ideas (though not with a time loop)#i do love time loops narratives that explore how a person is confronted with their life and their choices#when forced to live the same day over and over again#and i LOVE time loops that try to reverse mistakes made and lives lost#but to see a character put themselves through loops upon loops upon loops#trying to rectify past mistakes (especially in the case where people died) only to be confronted with the reality it isn't working#and even in a loop where they save everyone the loop just resets#because the universe is essentially saying 'no that isn't how it happened and you know that's not how it happened'#it compels me!#i feel similarly about time travel where time 'fights back'#like this idea that there is a central timeline that time does not like being diverted from#so it will try to course correct itself#you save lincoln from an assassination only for him to die in a train crash#it's a cool way to confront the idea of fate#anyway all tragedies are hopeless time loops thank you for coming to my ted talk#a shout into the void#1k#5k#10k

Appleseed PDA montage to save you from reading endless pages of unimportant politics that don't amount to anything
also because I have nothing better to do, I'm bored, I'm moody, my gaming laptop is still broken so no BG3, and it's too late at night to start drawing after doing animation clean-up all day.
#Manga#Appleseed#Shirow Masamune#80s#This is literally every single one of these moments in the entirety of the manga's run#including bonus material#There's some great character writing hidden among all the infodumping and technobabble as well#But like I said before all it accomplishes is to make you frustrated#Because despite being written so well#Masamune was more interested in waxing philosophical than actually giving his characters the attention they deserve#Despite them displaying an insane amount of depth and complexity whenever they are able to#it's a very rare case where the characters are EXTREMELY well written and almost every moment they are on screen is amazingly well done#But the manga keeps demanding you listen to completely different side characters talk about politics for endless pages#while at the same time none of these politics have any consequence or relevance to the actual stories that happen on screen.#So it ends up with the majority of the manga is like listening to some guy you don't know on the bus reading the headlines of a newspaper#at you about political tension between two countries you have never heard of and will never feature in your life again#How do you write such great and well written characters and then be completely disinterested in actually putting them on screen?????

Futurama S11E07
#sigh.#sars cov 2#covid 19#futurama#gotta love how they are once again downplaying the seriousness of the developing h5n1 situation too#definitely not concerning that many mammals in the wild are being infected by birds#and definitely not concerning that cows and chickens are being infected now#and about 3 detected cases in humans (so far)#it's nothing serious anyway - it's not like viruses can keep spreading and mutating if left to spread without appropriate mitigations!#that's never happened before! it's definitely not happening with anything else right now!#''ABC'' right????#so weird and ''random'' that cases of rsv flu tuberculosis mpox measles are popping up constantly everywhere these days right??#love this new normal!!!#ppl continue killing and disabling themselves and other ppl and FOR WHAT#FOR FUCKING WHAT

NPMD Tarot - The Star
Others from the series: The Hierophant, The Lovers, The Devil, Strength, The World
A bit of symbolism under the cut, but I'm curious of other interpretations 👀✨
I matched The Star with Ruth based mostly on visuals and the reverse meaning (which among other things mentions feeling like everything is against you, which I thought fit her well).
Elements that represent hope, opportunities and shining bright from the original card are turned into foreshadowing of her death here.
Light - Her Moment, chance, ambitions and wants. The second she enters it, she's dead.
Background - theater seats, empty.
#nerdy prudes must die#ruth fleming#npmd#lauren lopez#fanart#tarot#tarot cards#my art#digital art#clip studio paint#you thought I was done with those huh?? ;D#two more!! feel free to guess the card/character combos#im not sure if i mentioned them anywhere and I happen to rather like them so!!#also changed my strategy with these - rather than universal typography placement/color this one is adjusted specifically for this piece#so it looks less awkward on its own but also doesnt match the others#i'll adjust the older ones to be good stand-alones and then maybe collect all of them in one post and unify them there again... we will see#thats in case someone is scrolling through these and wondering why they changed c:#500

Hi, Howdy! Hey! I really love your novel!! I got a little confused by the 4 day, may maybe you help me please? who is it? why we got the bad end staying the night in Ren’s apartment and he disappear of the home screen? I can’t understand “unset memory” game, sorry if I wrote smth wrong or smth sounds rude, I swear that I didn’t mean it if happened, I’m really a fan of the novel, I’ve been playing the game since day 1 or 2 I guess, probably day 1, english isn’t my first language, but I tried lol
⌞♥⌝ I hope you don't mind me answering these as bullet points!! ^^
"It" will be revealed later in the game! So I won't reveal too much right now.
You can only get the Dead End in Day 4 by staying at Ren's apartment — the rest of your choices before that don't matter. I'd also pay closer attention to the black smoke and Ren's reaction towards it!
Ren disappears from the home screen because he promised to help the player out (and stop them from getting the Dead End again). Try replaying the game again from the beginning for a surprise!
"Unsent Memories" was another visual novel (initially being written by @10chimes / @unsentmemory, though the project has since been dropped and handed back to me /pos) and is set in the same universe as 14 Days With You. Its storyline and characters are completely separate from 14DWY, so you don't have to worry about them while playing 14DWY.
#I don't think a lot of people know this but River was originally my OC lmao#Obviously BEFORE Jesse picked him up and turned him into an entirely different character /pos#We originally planned for Riv and Ren to have a Billy and Stu dynamic; except River would pretend to be a himbo—#— The same way Ren would pretend to be some Normal Empathetic Guy™️ kjgskg#River was also going to be a lovesick serial killer who incapacitated Bunny so that they'd stay with & depend on him forever#Also because Jesse and I wanted to have a ''same production factory; different yandere'' kind of vibe with Riv and Ren (and their dynamic)#Like... Ren puts Angel above himself and craves THEIR satisfaction whereas River cares about himself and prioritises HIS own satisfaction#Ren would hit his best friend (River) with a car if it meant keeping Angel happy & by his side forever#River would hit Bunny with a car if it meant keeping them by his side forever (thus making him happy)#But!! After everything that's happened in the yandere community; Jesse (understandably) wanted to get away from that kind of environment#So he's since dropped Unsent Memories and hasn't really got any plans to work on it again or return to da yan vn circle#I'm also continuing to write 14DWY the way it was originally planned (with 2017!River only getting a brief cameo to serve up some lore </3)#—But I'm lowkey holding out just in case Jesse ever considers returning hehe :3 I like their version of River and I wanna do him justice#Until then though?? I'll yearnfully clutch my locket and wait for my lover to return from war.... (she has a literal 9-5 job now) /hj /p#GKJSDG I scrolled up and??? NOT ME RANTING IN THE TAGS AGAIN?????????? WHY DO I UNINTENTIONALLY YAP SO MUCH#I will 🤫🤐 now#💌 — answered.#💖 — 14 days with queue.#🖤 — shut up sai.#to be tagged later#weird0nerd

Can you imagine how terrified Aelwyn must be? Her baby sister and her dumb friends have just said the name of a dead god and the world went mad, and they went into the briefcase of the one named The Ball and the one with the dead god casted a ward of death on you. And now it's been who knows how long and spell after spell you try and cast won't open the briefcase?
#and gilear weeping over the case wanting his daughter back#and just not knowing what's happening in it#but knowing something bad is happening#and thats your little sister#the only one left in the world who truly understands you and loves you#fhjy spoilers#d20 fhjy#fantasy high junior year spoilers#fantasy high junior year#the bad kids#fhjy#fantasy high#like i dont see anyone else talking about those outside the briefcase#what if theyre stuck in there#and tracker?? shes probably distraught over wolfing out traumatically again and now her ex (who shes still into) is trapped in a suitcase#blade speaks

i've returned for 2 seconds to tell you that they're not leaving my head. (sort of unrelated but i've been thinking as well. what if vasco died before machete ? what would go down)
.
#ah this is so terribly cute#makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside#“possessed by the vaschete spirit” you and me both#their expressions are so sweet#couple of dorks#and I like the dusty desaturated color scheme! with pink and darker brown accents#gift art#insect-shenanigans#own characters#Vasco#Machete#as for what would happen if Vasco died first#and I'm assuming of natural causes like illness or old age#I suppose Machete would try to sneakily sponsor his funeral#throw the fanciest burial possible#and maybe add some kind of anonymous half hidden obscure tragiromantic inscription on the grave#about wishing to see him again one day#and then either go on to do what Vasco did and commission art in his honor#or get a bad case of widowhood effect and go downhill quickly after his passing#oh yeah he might start to financially support Vasco's widow so that there was a little less pressure on her to get remarried#as you may remember she's a lesbian and one lavender marriage was probably enough for her#I can see that being a thing in certain circumstances

Prompt:
A whole ass zombie apocalypse wasn’t something Jason thought he’d ever have to worry about.
Not that he has to worry about it now, either, considering he just got bit.
Everyone knows what you gotta do in these scenarios. Your loved ones will cry (“awe, Dickie, you do care”), they’ll try to find a different way (“shut up Bruce. Even you can’t concoct a cure in two hours”) and blame themselves (“fuck you, Timmers, I want you to know I died because you wanted that damn coffe!”…. Yeah, he could have handled that one better in hindsight) and then, ultimately, they’re gonna put a bullet in your brain. For the sake of the group.
And it’s fine, really. Better than turning into a mindless, flesh eating meat sack. He was ready. He got to say goodbye. It’s fine.
Or it would have been fine, if any of those damn cowards had pulled the friggin trigger.
Now Jason is clinically semi-dead (don’t ask him, he doesn’t know how this shit works either) and still annoyingly in charge of his mental faculties while also harboring a rather concerning craving for human flesh.
Fuck.
#non traditional zombie au lol#prompts#the batfam couldn’t bear to shoot Jason#and in this case it worked out alright#now Jason is trying to find his family again#and make sure they don’t brain themselves by tripping over a rock#because obviously they can’t be trusted with the simplest of survival things#like shooting the infected group member jfc he’s too old for this shit#or young#anyway Jason has to juggle being a zombie and discreetly protecting his family from afar#and maybe also give them some heart attacks by play acting like the actual zombies#because f u Dick this is exactly what would have happened if I didn’t get the premium zombie upgrade!#jason todd#batfamily#dick grayson#bruce wayne#batfam#robin#red hood#tim drake#batman#Damian al ghul Damian wayne#Cassandra Cain#duke thomas#Stephanie brown#Alfred pennyworth

She’s right. As soon as I seen that clip from the trailer, of him shooting the car down, I can just feel that’s not Bucky because of the body language and expression (and how it’s not something I would expect from him). But this person from twitter comes with more arguments as to why it doesn’t seem to be him.
Also, let’s remember Bucky’s hair length always has symbolized his freedom. And despite the fact that the bob looks horrible, this may be the reason he long hair again.
And let’s not forget: Val is literally Madam Hydra. If anyone were to know how to get control over him again, it’d be her.
#I’ve always kinda thought (or at least hoped) that he’d be mind controlled for part of thunderbolts#bc that’s always been the most reasonable explanation for his involvement#and it seems like that’s the case#that we initially see Bucky until something happens mid movie and he’s controlled again#then somehow breaks out of it by the climax#my best theory is that he is investigating Val until he gets too close and she uses that to her advantage#bc he lead himself into her trap and now she can bring back the soldier#and get him to take out the others#anyways#bucky barnes#james buchanan barnes#winter soldier#thunderbolts#thunderbolts*

Sonoko and Shinichi are forced to attend high society parties together, mockumentary style
Interviewer: What do you do during these parties?
Shinichi: Sonoko and I people-watch. It's a great way to hone your observational skills and kill time. Sonoko is actually surprisingly good at it. Maybe the Queen of Deduction isn't too far off a nickname. (He says snickering)
*shot of Shinichi leaning into Sonoko and whispering something. Sonoko giggles and whispers back*
Sonoko: People-watch? *scoffs* Oh no, we gossip.
*shot of Sonoko whispering something to Shinichi as they both turn their heads slowly towards a man with messy hair straightening his tie. Shinichi whispers something back and they snicker for a second before swiftly turning their heads away when the man looks at them*
Sonoko: We gossip the entire time. (She says with the biggest shit-eating grin)
*the man leaves and Shinichi and Sonoko slowly look at each other and burst into giggles*
#sonoshin#suzuki sonoko#kudou shinichi#detective conan#dcmk#dc prattles#I LOVE SONOSHIN FRIENDSHIP SO MUCCCHHHHH#they!!! are!!!! besties!!!!!!!!!!#also i wanted to draw this but it's been rotting in the drafts for so long it felt like a shame to keep it there#ANYWAY MORE SONOKO AND SHINICHI SHENANIGANS PLEASEEEEE#also i feel like sonoko would be one of shinichi's go-to sources when info gathering for any case that has anything to do with#celebrities and stuff#and people from high society#also fashion stuff#and also sometimes the gossip on whats happening in the big business moguls of japan#she'd reluctantly know these things cos she's being pushed to be the heir still#anyway again more sonoko and shinichi shenanigans!!!!!!
