forever obsessed w the fact that in bh lore vampires do actually die and stay dead for a short bit and then come back wrong. something that sadly never really gets elaborated on but that i find deeply fascinating bc it is implied that they remember the afterlife! which is such a cool and insane nugget of lore to give ur vampires like hello. also the implication that it scared the shit out of them, or at least out of mitchell..... can we talk about it!
mitchell eating his stupid fucking noodle box as hes waiting w the newly turned vamp to make sure he doesnt wake up alone and scared even though lauren mocks him for it!
mitchell making sure to remind george to NOT look at what's beyond the threshold when they are preparing to say goodbye to annie when her door shows up!
that little moment when annie decides to tell owen the secrets of the dead to drive him insane and george asks what that was all about and mitchell shakes his head so annie goes ahaha lol i was just improvising even though both her and mitchell know better!!!! thats their best friend who they will protect from the horrors of death as long as (in)humanly possible! they love you alive boy ♡
#me trying to make any post abt a single member of the og trio: ok btw did u notice that all 3 of them loved each other so so much#being human#being human uk#john mitchell#i wish the fact that mitchell remembered Death was used beyond s1 bc it is one of my favourite creative decisions wrt supernatural lore tbh#its not really super prominent and they do keep his fear of death in the later seasons but that specific angle was sooo delicious#especially if u take into account the whole Guilt sitiation george has got going on that hes the only 'alive' member of the household#and as such the only one w a chance to Do Something More w his life and get out of there (he cannot. and hes never getting away from them.)#and how hes torn between wanting A Life bc he still has a chance however flimsy and The House (but it was never going to be human was it?)#and how as much as both annie and mitchell want him to stay bc they belong together (and it is heavily implied that a wolf/vamp/ghost trio#is actually the only truly stable environment for all three categories which is what has kempp and co so freaked out)#they also want him to seize life bc even though they cant he still can and he Should!!! and thats such a great element of tension imo#that sadly gets lost in s4 &5 a bit bc toms relationship to the mortal world is entirely different since he was never a normie so to speak#but yeah. i would make a webweave abt this except i lost all of my fucking episodes Plus my poetry collection when my pc died so#u get this 3 am ramble and if uve read this far u will also get the reminder to fucking make backups of ur stuff!!! do it for me pls!!!#the wise one learns from his mistakes but the genius learns from others mistakes or wtv ...... please learn from my mistakes lol#cavetext

it probably wasn't the smartest decision to start an ongoing 1000+ chapter webnovel when i know it'll consume my every waking thought but here we are
open for better quality | no reposts
#turning novel#터닝#kishiar la orr#yuder aile#when i tell you i read the manhwa in one go last night and then started reading the novel today bc commenters said it was good#and my god were they right#i'm 40+ chapters in so i've just passed where the manhwa is at rn and wow#first of all thank god there are high quality and easily accessible translations#second of all kuyu-nim has a way of making all the lines carry weight. the dialogue and body language cues especially#like i'm definitely not that far in but there are already a few lines i can point out that made my heart clench#and the tension between the two leads is so so palpable#kishiar is very enigmatic i'm very interested in finding out what he's really thinking and what his abilities are#and i really appreciate the way yuder's development is focused on him caring about others and relying on them#ok and third the fact that it's a slow burn romance but focuses heavily on the plot and politics and relationships is so good#based on the tags this could have been very tropey but they didn't go that route and i'm glad for it#in other news i'm upset about how yuder came out but i have to post him bc i will not separate them ;;;#thought kishiar would be harder to draw bc he's pretty:tm: and i struggle drawing pretty boys but yuder put me through the wringer fr#anyway!! i love them very much!! going a little insane over them as you can see!!

i do think a good shtola arc for the future would be like, her sort of calculated recklessness with her own life negatively affecting someone else and her having to reckon with that
#like for example i just don’t think they dealt with her forever altering thancred!!!#man. they could have done so much with that + the tension between them in shb#i feel like ppl don’t really consider how close they are like she has a whole little speech about how she expects better of him#bc she knows he can be better!! bc they’ve known each other so long.#and now she has to charge his cartridges bc she permanently altered his ability to use aether. while trying to save him!!#i have like a vague memory of him being like well i’m not mad bc she saved me but i have no idea if that’s real or i read it in a post ahdj#i don’t have thancred brain im sorry😭#but anyway. they care about each other so much but i think they should have gone into this a little more.#well there’s always fic.#i need a text post tag#shadowbringers spoilers#oh i forgot where i started with this but essentially i want her to like really have to think about how far she will#go for answers. and to decide when it’s enough!! idk what i hope the outcome will be.

the thing about romcoms is just- it's never meant to be 'is it believable?' but instead 'do you believe it?' do you believe these two characters are actually falling in love with each other??? do you believe their chemistry??? do you believe whatever obstacle is thrown in their way is legitimately something that might keep them apart for a time and not something that could be solved with one conversation?? do you believe that they believe they need to fake date for this very specific reason??? do you believe the reason why they're 'enemies' at the start, no matter how silly a misunderstanding it may be??? do you believe the grand romantic gesture fits the characters and is actually how one character would show their love to the other?? like!!!! it's about empathy and authenticity and feeling what the characters feel so strongly that even if it's a trope or a cliché it doesn't matter because you believe it
#this is what separates a good romcom from a bad romcom for me#if the conventions of the genre are used in a way that feels authentic to the characters then it'll never feel cheesy#one of my biggest pet peeves is some of the romcoms of the last decade who have this real 'we're not like other romcoms' energy#where they try to act like they're Different and move away from the usual tropes but it's shit bc that's not the point!!!!#those tropes and conventions are staples of the genre for a reason#it's how you utilise them and incorporate them that matters#like fuck me i hate action movies but i know if i go see one there's a 99% chance there'll be a car chase scene#bc that's usually a staple feature of an action movie and i mean idc but that's fine bc i know it has a function in the story to increase#the tension#and even at that someone who really loves action movies could probably tell me the difference between a good car chase scene & a subpar one#in the same way that just saying something is fake dating doesn't automatically make it good#but if i believe it and i'm in it with the characters? oh boy i'm about to feel so dELIGHTED for the next 90 minutes thank you so much#anyway i'm rewatching the lost city and every second of this movie is so silly in a fun way and fantastical but oH BOY DO I BELIEVE IT#mine

braddavid is so funny bc like. mq's main relationship (grimmpop) is so interesting and layered and complicated and is without a doubt the heart of the show yet so many people (including me) collectively went ummmm but what about the two funny middle aged men. what if they fucked
#mythic quest#like there are 40 romantic grimmpop fics and a wholeass 178 braddavid ones#and it could be bc the creators have explicitly stated that grimmpop will never be romantic but like when has that ever stopped shippers#bc lbr there is no actual romantic/sexual tension between brad and david and it will probably never be canon either AND YET#probably has to do with the general popularity of slash and the way female characters get shoved aside in favour of male ones#and i guess im part of the problem here but the thing is im a brad bakshi stan first and a lesbian second#so there#and also idk for me the appeal in writing fic about them IS the fact that there's nothing much there in the source material?#so i can just make stuff up and put them in my own little scenarios#like i loooove poppy but she's such a good well-rounded character that im like. i have nothing to add to this it's already perfect lmao#idk. what am i even trying to say here#im 6000 words deep in another braddavid fic is what im trying to say

trying to keep all my clemviminnie thoughts contained until i get to episode 3 but
its hard
#telltale was CRAZY for this btw!! the drama of it all ALWAYS gets me#violet blaming herself for her gf/minnies death. clem helps her open up again. starts dating clem. finds out minnie is still alive?#saved violet telling clem she has nothing to worry about and she'll fight minnie if she has to to keep clem and her loved ones safe#kidnapped violet getting brain poisoned by minnie into turning against clem after feeling betrayed and abandoned by her#saved vi shooting minnie to save clem!!!!!!!!! but cant leave minnie behind because she already left her once and she cant do it again#vi begging minnie to stop trying to fucking kill them but shes too far gone. the 3 of them fight to the DEATH!!!#now add all that to the parallels and dark mirrors going on between clem and minnie in the A plot like the tension is off the charts#plus the parallels you can draw between clem and vi but those are less “you are my dark mirror” and more “we are the same i understand you”#HOW are the girlies not still talking about this#you know what i partially blame myself i dont talk about it enough either. i forget how many things ive left in my wips folder sometimes#UGH its all so good violets route just ads so much Flavor to the clem/minnie plotline its Delicious i couldnt imagine it Not being there#i neeeeeeeed to draw them fighting and being gay and maybe bloody even#if u cant tell i really want to get back to that wip i posted a few weeks ago but im Trying to Restrain Myself#i love forcing myself to take things slow sometimes really makes the brain shift into overdrive#twdg#violentine#it speaks

i cannot wait to read the ben winona reconciliation in burn bright 😁
#okay i’m realizing this maaaaaaay not happen in burn bright and there might be more waiting assuming he’ll have multiple books#mine#cobalt empire series#but this post is also making me realize how much beef ben has to resolve with various family members omg???#i think it’s realistic to expect that ben and winona’s friendship will be restored in ben’s books#because that feels like a distance that’s HIS fault. like she never wanted to drift from him but his own issues led to their separation#and therefore we need his pov for the resolution#but tbh ben and xander is a mixed bag. we still don’t totally get why there is so much tension between them so it could go either way#but god i hope we don’t have to wait that fucking long#like if it isn’t in ben’s books then they better have some plan for the rest of the kid’s books to start releasing alongside the cobalt empi#and then charlie and ben there is definitely a LOT of animosity on both sides but imo this is mostly charlie’s problem#he is a big bully to ben and ben’s treatment towards charlie is simply reactionary#this isn’t necessarily set in stone though bc idk if ben and charlie could realistically live together with this much turmoil between them#like it makes sense to me that we need to see charlie’s perspective of this and he will need to be the one to take the reins#in order for there to be a resolution. but will they really wait this long? unless maybe charlie’s books are right after and it gets split#anyway. CANT WAIT TO FINALLY SEE BEN AND WINONA���S FRIENDSHIP FIRSTHAND#I HOPE IT ISNT RESOLVED AT THE LAST MINUTE SO WE GET REAL BFFS CONTENT#BOY GIRL BEST FRIENDS ARE EVERYTHING TO ME!! especially when there’s a zero chance of romance#and i really hope ben easton and xander become an epic friendship trio

i can’t stop thinking about hurricanes / hummingbirds i can’t stop updating it i literally forgot i have other wips because kashimo and Y/N have taken over my mind
#i was thinking to myself ‘wow it’s so nice to only have one wip rn’#pomegranate ink icoamd SitH rn: 🤨😒#but like h / h is different idk how to put it#there’s just so much happening and so many plot twists and reveals to come#every chapter i write is another layer to the mystery of the story#also it’s not even unhappy but there’s just a layer of like. impending doom surrounding the fic#like you know everything is going to end so tragically for the characters#IDK I JUST LOVE KASHIMO AND Y/N SO MUCH#the tension between them…unbelievable#sorry to the readers of my other stories i promise they’re (probably) not abandoned#in the meantime read h / h ik it’s for such random character (hence the like two readers it has)#but it’s seriously one of the best stories i’ve written i think#hurricanes / hummingbirds#m’s thoughts

slowly, slowly, slowly learning how to bridge the gap in my teaching between overexplaining and underexplaining so I hit that exact sweet spot of getting the kids to the place where they’re interacting with a text that is absolutely over their heads and out of their leagues but their excitement, generated by me but sustained by them, and the right amount of scaffolding and explanation lifts them up to be able to meet it, enjoy it, learn from it, be affected by it.
#teaching tag#it is MAGIC when that happens#anyway i've been showing them macbeth this year instead of reading it because we don't have time to read it#and i've been severely in my head about the uselessness of it#and how it's not doing anything#but i had a good talk with another teacher about it and she was like 'no no! keep going!'#and then today we watched the malcolm and macduff scene and i could feel the room listening to the language#not quite understanding it but reaching out towards it#and it was SO. GOOD.#it helps that the guy who plays malcolm is young and cute#tbh i would never underestimate the importance of that#me choosing my shakespeare adaptations carefully so they get to look at someone young and beautiful enough for a period of time#anyway teaching has been just the absolute doldrums for a couple months now and this feels like a nice break and streak of light#like i just can't ever rule out the possibility that their hearts can be caught by something that we're reading#despite my common sense telling me not to put too much stock into their emotional reactions#because doing so would lead to my burnout and bitterness#because you can't force anyone to fall in love#but you can set the stage and clear the rubbish and lay the fire for lighting#and just wait for a spark to catch#anyway this tension between the orderliness and peace and box checking that i WANT to be a part of my room .....#and the moment of a student just suddenly being illuminated. inspired. in love !!!!!!!#i love it. i love it a lot!

What If…? Dark: Moon Knight (Vol. 1/2023), #1.
Writer: Erica Schultz; Penciler and Inker: Edgar Salazar; Colorist: Arif Prianto; Letterer: Cory Petit
#Marvel#Marvel comics#What If…? Dark: Moon Knight#Moon Knight comics#latest release#Luminary#Marlene Alraune#Jean-Paul Frenchie Duchamp#Frenchie’s own plot line here where he feels like he must honor Marc’s dying words to keep Marlene safe is subtle…#but it means so much to me#because there’s that tension between oh Frenchie understandably feels guilt and quite possibly feels a bit responsible#for not preventing Marc’s death (as irrational as that may be) so he’s trying to look out for Marlene#but Marlene’s obviously proven herself to be capable#so while /I/ for example don’t think Frenchie has any sort of misogynistic biases urging him to shelter Marlene#and he’s instead just trying to be a supportive friend for someone who might go overboard in a dangerous field in her grief#I can still feel where there might be some understandable tension there#of ‘you weren’t this protective of Marc? Do you see me as somehow less capable?’#(when the answer could very well be ‘no it’s because even Marc straight up died and I don’t want to be unable to prevent#the loss of another friend’)#both are grieving though so I appreciate the subtlety of how neither of them are in the absolute best place and are just trying their best

well i certainly wasn't expecting any of THAT but i'm not mad at it! so WOOO
#shut up kell#wwe lb#i've been joking for weeks that all jey needs to do to get kevin to chill out on him is just give him a taste of his own medicine somehow#like if kevin were to bite jey jey would just have to bite kevin right back. and then kev would be Fine. like game recognizes game.#lowkey? this was that. and kevin initiated the hug. POLYCULE LIVES#also! this actually works BETTER for the survivor series match i'm thinking about!! because if tjd had interrupted the match tonight then—#there would still be weird tension between zowens + team yeet because of the lack of resolution for the titles#(particularly from kevin. of course. because he's a bitch and i like him SO MUCH)#so by having team yeet win clean AND pin kevin himself? now kevin has nothing to really be pissy about with them.#and now everyone is gonna be chill and kevin won't be so easily persuaded to sell jey to satan for one corn chip#and the polycule lives and the survivor series face team won't have any interpersonal conflicts!

I wonder what btsv is going to do with the conflict between what the law demands of Jeff vs his love for his son because like. You get the vibe there isn’t Quite as much stringent anti spiderman sentiment from law enforcement in 1610 but also. It’s such a powerful sentiment to have your child essentially force you to reevaluate all that you thought it meant to be good.
#I don’t think they’ll do Gwen’s dad 2 sadly#but who knows! they could!#there just isn’t AS MUCH tension in the jeff/spiderman relationship as there was gwen’s dad/spiderwoman one#because w jeff it’s more like. partnership he has to justify somewhat to the higherups yeah#but he doesn’t doubt spiderman is a good guy#there just isn’t THAT much conflict set up between them in this regard#it’s more so in the tension coming from this secret forcing Jeff to reevaluate how he sees his son growing up#which is still really compelling#I just kind of wish it would also result in cop quitting too shxhcjcjv#tunes talks spiderverse

i;m so sick of swatch/ton im gonna throw up for real
#IM NOT GOING TO CLAIM ITS LIKE MORALLY WRONG OR SOMETHING I JUST DON'T LIKE IT. IT DISINTERESTS ME DEEPLY#It just makes 97% of anything ever made or related to swatch disinteresting to me immediately its frustrating#i know they have canon character tensions going on between them which is fine but i dont get why exploring them by default has to ship#^sorry i saw cool art that was tagged ship#also sorry to put this here but i don't want to put Fandomy Complaints on my main and this is my swatch blog#.bmp#uh..#complaining#??#i just don't get it but maybe its becauyse im Swatch Brained but like i feel like maybe. it doesnt have to be about spamton sometimes .#maybe swatch can be their own character outside of half of a ship dynamic idk#<- also ALSO. i wrote up a huge thing about how Swatch wouldn't have like severely and permanently disfigured spamton#by throwing him in burning acid. which i intended mostly as like 'swatch isn't just Mean Butler/Barista and nothing else' because i was sic#of them just being used as a prop villain for Spamton#but i really didn't mean it as like. they were closer than they seem in game or that they didnt clearly hate eachother's guts#they very much do not like eachother . like Swatch is SO mad he stole the NEO body they made it clearly meant a lot to them#no doubt they have some bullshit going on but to me making it romantic or whatever doesn't add anything to the interpersonal conflict#this why it is my mission to make swatch art that is not ship sorry

i Need to draw more clemviminnie shit but how am i supposed to do that when minnie only exists alongside them for 2 episodes then dies
#its why i alive her for some post s4 stuff just so i have more to work with 😔#but i dont Love doing that....she sealed her fate..she was lost in the sauce...#but theres so much there..............#the way minnie was concerned for vi while betrayed!vi and clem were fighting in the cell she def still had feelings...#they still wouldve been dating if she was never taken like......#ITS SO MESSY I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#like while i Do think there was some tension in their relationship somewhere bc that line in the woods didnt come from nowhere#no matter how changed she was by the delta that sentiment had to come from somewhere. maybe she could just never say it#but idk if they wouldve broken up over it and there was no reason for violets feelings to change either. she just grieved her 'death'#vi says the real minnie is gone and that she'll do what she has to to keep everyone else safe but like....#theres no way shes not still conflicted on some level like you can see it on the boat she cant leave her. esp since she kinda blames hersel#minnie being clems dark reflection but clem is minnies reflection just as much (obvs) the tension is palpable between them#clem being the part of herself that she killed when she killed sophie...the symbolism of killing your own twin...#and how much does clem remind her of sophie too like whos clem Really mirroring here#THERES SO MUCH MEAT THAT IM CHEWING ON THIS IS A GRAND MEAL#and i cant fucking do anything about it 😭 seriously how do i work within these constraints#there isnt even a 2 week jump like there is in ep2 theres no unaccounted for time in eps 3 and 4 ITS KILLING ME#i bet in a betrayed!vi route minnie was glad to see her when they made it to the boat. and vi feeling betrayed by clem was a perfect target#totally susceptible. minnie gets in her head that its safer to give in instead of fighting back... and now theyre together again...#vi betrayed by clem falling right back into minnies arms OOF girl get away she is Fucked Up..theyre both fucked up 😭 clem u broke her#betrayed!vis reaction to hearing minnies confession about sophie..girl must have been so emotionally fucked in that cell#mmm toxic yuri mmmmm :)#god clemvi really has it all..............................................#why would i need anything else...when clemvi is here#twdg#it speaks#still cant believe my fave girlie really got it all :)

Is there a genre you like to stick to or do you like writing for different genres, or maybe you like mixing them? :]
:D
I tend to like writing in a fantasy setting in some way, and most of my projects could probably be put in that genre!
Recently though, I've been really interested in more high tech scenarios, and my two most developed projects are a sci fi galaxy with multiple factions and species, and a world set in an industrial revolution with inspirations from napoleonic times to the wild west to the American 1920s, with a good amount of fantasy elements sprinkled in 🥰
Thanks for the ask!!
#the industrial world has... a lot of my brainpower going into it#i cannot tell you how much time i have spent just looking at the maps amd trying to see how they affect the modern world#i have had dreams about it#the sci fi setting is also incredible but it's so much harder to work on because of how the setting exists#and also i love aliens too much and i just want all aliens and humans to coexist and love eachother#but for a story i cant do that!! its boring for a story setting and it's breaking my xenophilic heart#like i have about 5 major factions all in an alliance and im working towards some tensions between them and also another#much larger faction that gets into conflict with the other 5#well they've already been in conflict#if you've read all these tags I'll give you a little secret#they killed earth.
