#it's as irritating as it sounds

[firestorm09890]

hey it's that anon from the other day about meursault. I am also an autistic individual with low empathy and can therefore only partially sympathize with Meursault. I think that you've done a reading of The Stranger that is very sympathetic and that there is value in that, but I've always read The Stranger as both a story about the absurdity of connection and a story about a Frenchman in colonial Algiers who doesn't understand himself or his own biases. You mention heat stroke but I think it's worth considering: is Meursault's perception of events realiable? Could he be unconsciously struggling with his complicity in oppressive violence against a colonial subject?

You raise very good points. I will be considering this. It’s a bit late to change the wording on that og post though

Buffy the Vampire Slayer was famously pitched as a subversion of the horror cliche of a young woman walking into an alleyway only to be killed by a monster. What if, the show asked, the young woman turned around and killed the monster? What if she was the thing that monsters have nightmares about?

For the spin-off series Angel -- a "darker" and "more complex" show, as its creators love to describe it -- the writers decided to further subvert the premise. What if, they asked this time, a young woman walked into an alleyway, only to be saved from a monster by a handsome, brooding man? What if the young woman was pregnant? What if the handsome man didn't actually save her, but he felt really bad about her death and brooded extra hard about it for the rest of the episode? (Maybe the monster had lawyers -- everyone hates defense lawyers, right? -- and maybe he could threaten to kill them!) What if the young woman was pregnant? Or what if she was the monster, and so he had to kill her and then feel really bad about it? And what if she was pregnant? Wouldn't that be terrifying? What if there was a young woman and she got pregnant and became monstrous and died, and a stoic brooding man who didn't like to talk about his feelings sat in his office and felt sad about it?

Vettonso complaining about each other not respecting schrondinger's track limits on the radio compilation + Seb's commentary that made me a bit feral

Must include these sexy ass pics okay, it makes me feral how hard they race each other.

Also SO upset that we got this vid and there's also pictures(and presumably a vid out there somewhere) of Fernando, back then, ALSO debriefing this race. And yet we never got them together?????? Evil. Fucked up.

Imagine seeing them complaining about each other but also having to (begrudgingly if you're Fernando) compliment each other IN FRONT of each other. Maybe its a good thing it doesn't exist, bcs then I'd have a heart attack.

Sakusa wasn't sure why he brought eyedrops along with his other necessities when he went to the drugstore.

His eyes weren't that sensitive nor does it dry up a lot─he had no reason to be buying it, so why?

Only then does he find himself rummaging through his bag when he notices how hard you've been rubbing on your eyes for the past few minutes.

My misophonia thing (if I have it), would be the sound of someone chewing food.

Like. Chew your food quietly with your mouth closed, or please make an effort to chew more quietly. It can’t be that hard…

Hi I’m sorry for bothering you, i hope everything is okay, that situation seems awful 🫂 I was just wondering if we could have a little bit of clarification, when you say no more public art, does that mean you’re shutting down your account? Deleting all your stuff? Not posting anything new?

Sorry again! I am just a little lost on the details of that one

Not deleting anything but I won't be posting anything new. I might open commissions here and there because I'm currently unemployed.

Edit: Since this might be repetitive stalking, I will private all of my art.

You can check for any commission openings here. Or you can come back next month and see me do stuff on patreon because if someone is trying to ruin my life, I should at least plug something right...

i need to complain and you're the only N liker i trust... whys every N rper have such a boring interpretation of him.... like at LEAST make him obsessed with math 😭😭😭

N is a fan favorite, which means you get way more people than usual attempting to write him, which means he tends to get subjected to more fanon...that's my theory

because he's a fan favorite, i think he's also the type of character that people like to pick up and project themselves onto, even if it means removing a lot of the nuance in his canon character. back when i was still RPing him on tumblr myself (which, granted, was almost a decade ago now...geez) it was also very in vogue to put him through so many layers of AU that he was basically just an OC lmao...tumblr Gladions are also like this in my experience. so many wildly out-of-character boys out there

anyway my advice to N writers is you don't even really need to know math to write N's math stuff true to canon...just have him throw out the word "formula" or "theorem" every now and then. that's what i did LMAO......this math shit is easy

#canon that the moment natalie feels like someone might leave her #she says the worst thing she can to them #so she can leave them first

Been thinking on the afterlives of the party:

I mean Shadowheart is faithful, so Gates of the Moon or Palace of Night (unless Shar is feeling stupid and short-sighted again and wants to lessen her own power by abandoning a powerful faithful soul).

Halsin is faithful and an elf, most likely to go to Arvandor but could get claimed by Silvanus.

Mystra is willing to claim Gale, if he's still mortal, so it's up to him.

Karlach's been praying to gods such as Lathander and Selune as she approaches death, and the gods do take deathbed conversions from compatible mortals, so she could potentially end up with Shadowheart. Cleric characters can also pray with her, so she could go with a Tav.

Wyll's so incredibly lapsed/areligious that you wouldn't call him faithful, but he acts in accordance with the teachings of the Triad, so I'm pretty sure that gives them a potential 'in' if he takes it.

Lae'zel is faithless (Vlaakith is not a god). She can easily dodge that by just not dying on Toril though.

Minthara: false false false false

Astarion is not only faithless but pointedly so. As an elf he theoretically has a foot in the door to Arvandor, but considering his relationship with the Seldarine is probably terrible...

Durge is either Bhaal's faithful or false, and as a Bhaalspawn should go to Gehenna regardless, though Jergal apparently has called dibs and they could seek another faith if we ignore that second bit. There are lots of gods you can pray to in this game. Most of them evil! Shar, Loviatar, Bane... most of them are Bhaal's co-workers, so you can sort of end up in the afterlife where your estranged and pissy dad usually lives and works.

Anyone who undergoes ceremorphosis might have 'property of Ilsensine' stamped on them...?

The Wall of the Faithless has been struck from SCAG errata, apparently, so I guess anybody who doesn't have a place in the afterlife (statistically; Minthara, likely Astarion, maybe Durge and Wyll) is going to be getting a job in one of the most boring cities on the planes, False or Faithless. At least there are occasional invasions from the Abyss, weird politicking with devils, and Jergal sometimes secretly sends souls out into the planes as undead on missions, so it could get interesting sometimes...

(All of this assuming that Jergal doesn't flat out claim any or all of them and fudge the reports the way he casually omits usage of undead from them when he hands them in to Kelemvor. Still comes out to the same result though.)

(There is the question of whether the personality is going to stay intact once they're dead, and what position you get; Myrkul's petitioners sometimes got to be 'princes' of sections of the City, while others were just faceless, identity-less wraiths wandering aimlessly. Cyric turned his into weird monsters who also didn't really remember who they were... The gods get to decide whether you keep your personality or not.)

Speaking of; Myrkul's domain is presumably still within the City of Judgement, so Ketheric is probably there! Dunno about your Tavs or Durge but mine is going to have a beautiful reunion if the idiot ever dies and ends up on the Fugue and Ketheric still has his memories and personality. Eternal punishment: spending eternity continuing the hell that was having this brat/this annoying old fuck as a co-worker.

More fun: maybe Myrkul still has an avatar there! That's not going to be awkward At All. Repeatable boss battles!

i love that jiro and saburo have the same finger tapping habit when they’re thinking 😭😭😭😭😭

[cjlouwho]

Honest question, if Brad became a series regular or moved to the spinoff could y’all really handle his voice every week? Like full annoying ass character aside, the sound of his voice feels like nails on a chalkboard to me, I genuinely can’t stand it.

[yourleftpinkytoe-blog]

do u have any other controversial takes? 👀 I agree with u on everything so I'm rlly interested!

I have like one more pretty big one but it’s kinda an extension on #6 of my hot take thing.

Ik like half the fandom loves kandriel but it actually makes me so irrationally mad that it’s as popular as it is.

I’m a firm believer of not changing or altering a character’s sexuality in the text if it is an important aspect of their character. Neil’s asexually is an important element of his character and seeing him shipped with anyone but his canon partner will always make me a bit uncomfortable(but I would never make my opinions dictate what others do I may have a problem with it but I’ll never make my problem other people’s problem)

But it’s not just that… it’s the fact that Andrew and Neil are each other’s person and it feels like a disservice to Kevin to just shoehorn him into that… for reasons unknown to me.

I love the platonic relationship between the three don’t get me wrong I’ll just never be able to see the three of them together in any form of a romantic sense.
