"You know, that animated show's main antagonist who's a man born hundreds of years ago, grew up incredibly protective of his brother since they only had each other. "

"Whose brother then left them for someone else who proceeded to emobdy something they will forever despise- leading to them killing their brother and those like their partner, and doing inhumane experiments to try to bring this brother back to life?"

"Their brother replica then growing up as their personal servant, then coming around to be part of how they are defeated in the end by the protagonist"

...which one?

So, to make this post, I reread all the parts of the Archer Au to try and find something to quote, to say, to show everyone how amazing and beautiful and heart-rending this story is.

And then reread it again, and again, and still couldn't pick out one passage over any of the others, because every word and every drawn line of it is a masterpiece!

Which everyone* involved in making the Archer Au fucking did an absolutely phenomenal job on, Holy! Fucking!! SHIT!!! And also ow!

*The Amazing Creators who've contributed to this series (whose other works I also highly recommend)- @goodlucktai , @remedyturtles , @klunkcat , and @soldrawss

This second set is kinda more like. An idea I had based off the text, rather than explicitly stated, but like. Neutral Mikey sent what he could of himself with Gio, so he wouldn't be alone, to protect him. Neutral Donnie poured over a decades worth of himself into the bolt to kill Krang Prime. And I couldn't leave out Neutral Raph if the other two got to make an appearance! So. Art! Visual representation and shit!

Mushroom 4am thought process.

The prompt was summer, so I drew an ocean. My brain was frazzled so I made it swirly and illogical. Abstract. Wheeee

Anyways let’s hope my ap art teacher doesn’t rip either of my drawings in half this time lmao.

Prompt: past | future

Lyrics: “Lovers” by Kiltro

Image description: the white outline of a dog rests on a patch of green floating in a void of black. The dark red shape of a heart is cut out of its side. Around the dog are other white outlines: two birds beside it and a bat above it. There are also several red roses connected by a thorned vine that encircle the dog. The lyrics to the song “Lovers” by Kiltro read: “Lovers, brothers, killers, friends/I’ve seen your hearts, don’t you forget/where you walk to where you rest/all that’s past to what comes next.” The lyrics are in gold and either bend around the shape of the dog or are placed inside of its lines. End description.

I thought it was hilarious, at first, that everyone’s decided Doomguy is still the protagonist of MyHouse.wad. After all, it doesn’t really have much more to do with Doom than gmod has to do with Half-Life 2. But then I remembered, isn’t that a plot point of Doom II? Visiting the burnt out ruins of your hometown on your way to the portal to Hell? Why couldn’t Doomguy take a few minutes to have a nightmare of an emotional journey in a childhood friend’s home to come to terms with everyone and everything he ever loved being destroyed?

the great (horrifying) thing about supernatural horror involving little kids is the underlying thread of helplessness that isn't really present with adult characters/stories

like with Skinamarink, we could debate whether the happenings of the film are physically "happening" or whether they're a metaphor for something more realistic (like child abuse/neglect), but at the end of the day the result is the same: these kids are 100% completely powerless

to a kid, an omnipotent god-entity is at the same level of confusing and powerful as a particularly cruel adult. without any way to call for help (or any way to get adults to listen to them), they're fucked either way. this is especially true if the kid is too young to have really internalized "rules of reality" yet-- they don't know how the world is "supposed" to work yet, so they prolly won't pick up on subtle spacial/metaphysical fuckery. they just know that they're scared and hurt and confused, and no one is around to help them

it rly puts into perspective the kinda world kids are forced to navigate, esp when we don't take the time to meet them at their level or care to listen to them. and, alternately, I think it also serves as an interesting way to view cosmic horror-- entities that often overlook the gaps in our perspectives and don't (or maybe can't) properly explain their motives or actions, and have the power to wreak devastating trauma on us if they have the inclination
