Pac: [Sighs] I'm trying to find someone, a person who's– a good person, a good person, a partner–
JV: No no! You only want bad people, Pac. Sorry, sorry.
Pac: No, I get it. And actually, I– I actually– I want someone to harm me, Fun. I want someone to hurt me– I want to have regrets, you know? I want it.
Fun: Wait, wait– A "she" or "he" or "whatever"? Hold on, I'll put whatever–
Pac: Whoever, whatever. ❤️💜💙
[ Full Subtitle Transcript ↓ ]
—
Fun: What's this?
Pac: This is it! Let's see- let's see if I stop being single, right guys? I'm trying, right? The party brings new opportunities to appear and everything, right?
Fun: Ah, you're trying to stop being single?* What's your type? Let me– let me be Tinder, dude.
Pac: I am–
Fun: Your type.
Pac: [Sighs] I'm trying to find someone, a person who's– a good person, a good person, a partner–
JV: No no!
Pac: What?
JV: You only want bad people, Pac. Sorry, sorry.
Pac: No, I get it. And actually, I– I actually– I want someone to harm me, Fun. I want someone to hurt me– I want to have regrets, you know? I want it.
Fun: Wait, wait– A "she" or "he" or "whatever"? Hold on, I'll put whatever–
Pac: Whoever, whatever.
Fun: "Whoever," then. Freaky or crazy, a vibe like that?
Pac: Yeah, exactly. You get it?
GuhZera: I like that vibe, I like that "crazy" vibe.
Translation notes:
* Fun uses the verb "encalhar" here, which is colloquially used to mean "to stay single," especially for women.
#Arkanis#Pactw#Funb4b3#JVNQ#GuhZera#Pac#November 21 2024#Translated#Subtitles#Edited#INCREDIBLY huge thank you to both Kia and Bell for their help on this. This was a tough one and I very much appreciate the help#As always. But even more with this clip because Pac cubito is near and dear to my heart#He's just like me for real ❤️💜💙#I can't believe literally nobody on here or Twitter posted a clip of this#I also can't believe he immediately rolled with JV's bit. ''Yeah you know what set me up with someone crazy''#Lord...#Pac does have a type though#Also I can't believe he has the audacity to say he's single when men are literally throwing themselves at him literally every day on Arkani#That contrasted with his response of ''Whoever'' is so funny#To paraphrase Bell: the desperate bisexualism is almost on par with Quackity#Pft#Also: Timestamp is 4:04:00 for folks who want to watch!#Thank you specifically to Kia for finding the timestamp for me because I would NOT have this clip otherwise#Anyways. We Been Knew he was bi but still :''')#very nice

(2016 ➡ 2024) i wanted to compare my first colored drawing of charlie (my oldest active OC) to now for fun but damn. this is kinda fucking me up rn and thought it might be interesting to share my embarrassing kid drawing with you all too. i think it's always cool to see where we start from and i always forget how much ive changed since then
#fun fact. she started out as a doctor who oc. and then i got embarrassed abt that and made her into a “superhero” oc#bc i was just getting into miraculous ladybug at the time. the first pic is her superhero costume i was trying to make#i was cringe but i was free. wipes tear#also for the ppl who have been following me for a LONG time. if you've ever seen me called her weave or weaver#that's bc her “superhero” name was time weaver 😭 and i kept perpetually shortening it as time went by LMAOOO#idk what to do with charlie now but she's still so dear and near to my heart#i just turned into a hot space lesbian and kept adding hair and muscle to her. LOL#bee buzzes#charlie#my ocs#oc#ocs#original character

As a Gévaudan Lycan, June’s design is supposed to give off an unknowable and melancholy energy.
Gévaudan Lycans are mimics, and their emotions alter their form, especially if they have little to no control of themselves when they shift.
The way June was changed into a lycan and her experience during first shift were extremely traumatic, and over time, her lycan form reflected her feelings of loss and self-loathing. She fronts as this charming and confident woman, while holding back her deeper emotions that eventually leached into the form that reflects her true self.
Fear, sadness, loss, and rage all mixed into this one entity she cannot control. Once a month, she's forced into facing all of those emotions, reliving that trauma again and again for nearly 30 years.
#so when people say they like her design#it makes me so so happy#I put lot of thought into it#as I really wanted to reflect a top very near and dear to my heart#which is the lack of access and resources for black women (especially queer black women) for mental health#there's this kind of cultural thing#where your hairstylist is also your therapist#and June’s design and lore is a reference to that culture#all these hardworking women in the community who will just be TALKING about their experiences at hair salons#it's cathartic but also like#it happens because of how little professional help is available and accessible for the community#anyway June is a big sad cryptid werewolf and needs to not be sad :[#she can still be a big cryptid werewolf but she needs lycantherapy#june kingston#strawberry moon

Bnha makes me so mad because it could’ve been good. It had a lot of good aspects. But in the end none of them were satisfyingly resolved so it just feels bad.
#UGHHHHHH ik a million people have made posts like this but it’s pissing me off rn!#the ‘unfortunately’ in my username is more pointed than ever#(not that I’ve had a lot of hope it’d end well for a long ass time.#it’s just frustrating to make me love these characters and get attached to this world and then execute their stories so terribly.)#honestly I’d probably change my username to smth else (and I still might) if I hadn’t had it for so long#it’d be annoying if it messed up links in my past posts#but having smth vanguard related might be fun…#bnha critical#mha critical#<- tagging those so no one jumps down my throat for stating an opinion on my personal blog#and like. I’m not doing this to be a hater. I LIKE these characters and some of this story is very near and dear to my heart#I’m also not saying everything I didn’t like is a writing flaw#and in fact a lot of the things I didn’t like I think should stay there just get meaningfully addressed#but good godddddddddd it’s upsetting to see a story I cared abt sm & I leaned on during some shit end like this#whatever.#I haven’t even actually been keeping up besides looking at the spoilers for years now#it’s not like I’m gonna stop thinking abt the version that lives in my head. it’s just a shame about the official ending that’s all.#at the end of the day I’m not the author horikoshi is and that’s how he chose to end his story.

Im so utterly taken with Wolfwood's eyes in Trimax, y'all. I cannot explain to you how much I love that part of his characterization. So much of him is right there, plain as day.
The way they give him away so completely. Truly windows into the soul he fears he doesn't have.
I can't handle the various themes and meanings in how he tries to keep them hidden. Chapel never could quite beat the humanity out of him no matter how much Wolfwood worries he's become a monster.
That sweet, compassionate, courageous, protective, and so so so terrified little boy is still right there behind those eyes.
#Trigun#Trimax#nicolas d. wolfwood#nicholas d. wolfwood#He makes me feel things I cant even begin to properly explain#Hes so near and dear to me#I know Im preaching to the choir here. This fandom has had nothing but time to stew on this but#Hes become one of my favorite characters of all time and Im playing catch up. Be gentle pls#Hes so scared. All the time.#But still he tries.

In defense of Maya (without knowing the manga):
She definitely annoyed me because obviously I know Taichi isn't the person she was claiming he is and she clearly knows Kohei likes him as a friend, at least, so it's like ...girl, come on. But like.
She only went off on Taichi after she got the first set of notes he took? Which, let's be honest here, were dogshit. He really didn't take a service that Kohei needs seriously and he was initially doing it for Kohei's lunch. She didn't lie there. We also learned there's only 23 notetakers in the entire college. This is a service that is very much needed, yet doesn't have nearly enough volunteers for, and Taichi was treating it like a joke that didn't matter at first. That shit was hella disrespectful. He didn't mean it as such, and Kohei didn't take it as such either, but it was. So no shit Maya got that notebook and was like "...what the hell am I supposed to do with this? And this is who Kohei thinks is so nice and cool and everything?"
All Maya has are the initial terrible notes that Kohei gave her like they were helpful (they weren't) and knowing Kohei only kept Taichi as his note taker because he liked being around him. With the unspoken fact, that maybe non disabled people didn’t pick up on, that he also only kept Taichi as his note taker because there just aren't enough note takers, so he couldn't have gotten better anyway. Which almost certainly factored in as to why Maya blew up at Taichi. Disabled people shouldn't have to accept shit notes just because the alternative is no notes at all. We already have to work uphill cause of the disability, it's adding insult to injury to basically know everyone’s like "well, yeah it sucks, but you could have nothing." Or even a “yeah, I didn’t care at first, but I do now!” Because it’s like “it’s great that you finally realized this is a real service needed for a real disability that affects real people. Glad you finally figured that out. Congrataritos.” Like it is exhausting being disabled and having to sit there and smile when people have their lightbulb growing moment since we don’t have the option to dick around until we decide to lock it in. So I completely got why those shitty notes set Maya off. Because she didn't go off at him after the dinner, it was after she got those notes.
And on a related note, we all clapped for Taichi when he went off on homegirl in the cafe because she wasn't treating Kohei like a real person with real issues, but he also wasn’t taking Kohei and his problems seriously with those initial notes. Like yes, he started trying and actually doing better, but that only happened once he became friends with Kohei and realized he needed to do better. Who knows, maybe the cafe girl could have grown as a person, like Taichi did, if she had been able to get to know Kohei as a real person. But Taichi didn't let her get that chance, just like Maya wouldn't have let him get that chance if she could. The only difference in those two situations, to me, is Taichi is already Kohei's friend so Maya can't stop them from interacting like Taichi did with that girl.
Like I’m sorry y’all, Maya's not being any more of a bitch than Taichi was because she can only work with the information she has, which obviously isn't what we as viewers have. She’s pushy and overbearing and, yeah, annoying because she also obviously has a crush on Kohei and we know he's sprung on Taichi, but it’s really not like she just looked at Taichi and went “fuck this guy” for no reason.
#I hear the sunspot#Hidamari ga Kikoeru#like yeah she's annoying but let's be honest Taichi can be annoying as well???#I think reducing Taichi down to a cinnamon roll that can do no wrong is severely downplaying how good this show it#because Taichi can do wrong he's even admitted it!#this show is genuinely so dear to me as someone hard of hearing#who for damn near the first time ever is seeing situations I've lived though and still live through play out onscreen#because it's also just so good#so to reduce it to Taichi: Sweet Boy - Maya: Annoying Bitch is just like#what the hell y'all???#as I said though I haven't read the manga#so I mean I guess she could just become an Evil Annoying Bitch cause this is a Japanese BL after all lol#but as of right now#she's really not that#and it's wild to me seeing some of the takes on her ONE episode so far#even in the preview#it's giving more jealous wanting Kohei's time energy and not#evil annoying bitch woman ruining this beautiful gay relationship lol#regular clyde

I may not look it but i used to watch ft!!
I've been rewatching some of the episodes and im still wishy washy on whether or not I want to redesign all the characters but here's some recent and old character sketches!! I've been playing around with their designs but trying not to deviate too far so that the characters still look like who they're supposed to be
Idk if anyone would wanna see me redesign/rework every character but I'd post em if there were people who wanted to see that.
Here's the rundown for those who are interested:
My basic ideas for fairy tail are to make every character a fantasy trope/creature/class/myth. Some of the characters will change into a different thing over time as they gain experience. I feel like fairy tail has a lot of potential to write a more modern fairy tale type story because of the whole wizards and magic thing. With dragons and princesses n everything. This is obviously present in the story, but i really want to reinforce that idea. there are some characters who I think really fit this, like Erza (obvi main knight of the story but also has the title of titania queen of the fairies) and natsu (obviously dragon as an mc, sort of a role reversal of the evil dragon. and maybe a fun demonic plot twist haha). But with other characters i may need to make more changes. Lucy is a loose version of the princess (with a fun runaway backstory), but I want her to evolve into a priestess. Grey kinda has nothing going on for him imo, the ice wizard thing keeps throwing me off every time i try to project something onto him. I think i'll go with a hunter -> demon slayer thing. He just happens to use ice magic. i don't wanna go with regular wizard because thats a bit boring lmao. It would also make the elemental thing between natsu and grey funnier bcuz he's a spooky demon and that guys a hunter so you guys REALLY shouldnt get along. They do anyway because the power of friendship lol Anyways that's the basic plan? even if i dont post it on tumblr just know its cooking in the back of my head. thx for reading all this haha
#fairy tail#nalu#Natsu dragneel#lucy heartfilia#wendy marvell#redesign#lisanna strauss#fanart#anime#manga#Fairy tail is so near and dear to my heart still#i really should finish it#but also GOD JUST GIVE ME THE REIGNS I PROMISE I COULD REWRITE THIS SERIES SO GOOD#poor wendy cant figure out if nalu is dating or not#she's like a little sister to natsu in my version#also all the dragon slayers arent just humans who can harness the power. like. its more obviously a part of them#like natsu and wendy naturally bond because dragon pack instincts ig and boom now she has an older brother#also wendy is a sky dragon like why doesn't she wear clothes that make sense for sky magic#she's gonna b cold just wearing that dress in the sky! cover her up!!#also lucy is trans i dont make the rules#ALSO MATES AS IN DATING#NOT SEX LOL

Do you have any plans to continue "the sun hasn't died"? (Don't mean this in an entitled way I'm just genuinely curious)
It's funny you'd bring that up because the fic genuinely has been on my mind again the last few weeks.
I do feel the itch to continue it, though if I do I'll rewrite the first five chapters from scratch since I'm not entirely happy with what's currently there. Maybe after I've finished my shorter ongoing fics I'll get on that o7
#asks#The AU itself is still very near and dear to me and also I have it like#fully planned out?#like chapter by chapter I have a summary for the entire thing beginning to end#so it's not writer's block that's stopping me from continuing#it's my inability to reread my own writing without cringing /lh

laugh away the sadness in the summertime
Rating: Teen
Ship: Lan Xichen x Jiang Cheng
Song: Woven Fates by Holostars Tempus
Word Count: 5.1K
Gift for tuples on AO3 for the @mdzs-mixtape
Summary:
“Perhaps, though I can't say I'm any less angry than I usually am. Just better at not unleashing it wantonly.” Jiang Cheng kicked an offensive clump of grass. “I've learned though, on matters that were purposefully kept from my knowledge that I can't blame myself for not knowing, y’know?”
Lan Xichen regarded him quietly without answering. Could it really be that simple?
“At least that's what I think. But perhaps I'm not making much sense.” Jiang Cheng winced.
“Not at all,” Lan Xichen smiled gently. “If anything, you’ve given me something to ponder. Something that makes my previous involvements less…bleak.”
Jiang Cheng smiled. “I’m happy I could help, Zewu-jun.”
Lan Xichen found himself taken aback. Jiang Cheng's smile wasn't something sardonic or sneering like he'd seen in the past. But once again, it was a hint at a youth he'd seen long ago. It was hesitant and boyish, a refreshing sight after so many memories of fox-curled lips plastered to the sparks against snow.
