Honestly, I love it when characters relapse. When someone who’s gotten over their anger issues falls into a situation so out of their depth they fall back on their old habits. When someone who’s learned to open up becomes a recluse again in order to cope with something outside their control.
There’s just something so horrible, so toxic, about watching a character grow and then slip back into their old selves in order to cope, bc you know they still care, that they’re the same inside, but watching them hurt so hard they don’t know what else to do brings a sense of catharsis.
#writeblr#writing#writers on tumblr#writing community#creative writing#my writing#fanfic#fanfiction#one of those tropes that has to be played carefully tho#it’s important to show them wresting with it#and realizing what they’re doing#but being so lost in their pain they don’t know what to do#show they’re contrary feelings and that they’re still the same inside#it’s just a defense mechanism#also don’t make it seem like a flick of a switch#a slow process of relapse and a slow process of recovery from it is also important#not a plot twist for the sake of it#or played for drama#but a legitimate change with real consequences#just yappin#writing prompts#writing tropes#writing stuff#writing characters#characters#character arcs#oc stuff#tropes#trope talk

Odysseus: demanding Athena take off whatever enchantment she put on him the second the situation ends.
Odysseus: who constantly reminds Athena that he has great plans to grow old and die with his wife so don't even think about getting any ideas.
Odysseus: side eye diomedes who has started fucking glowing he has so many enchantments on him: bro you should talk to Athena about getting those removed. You're going to end up immortal or some shit
Diomedes: who has been a solider since he was 5 who has intersting thoughts about his own personhood who has a much more traditional relationship with Athena and would rather literally stab his own eye out with a rusted sword than speak out of turn: I don't know what you're talking about
#odysseus#Diomedes#Athena#This is more pulling from my own headcanons than any source material#But I have a lot of feelings about the narritive physically changing a character and how well that works with the idea that#Becoming immortal is a slow process more of a slide than an abrupt change#And I have a lot of feelings about diomedes becoming immortal and how odysseus only ever wanted to be a man#And how diomedes was having a much more mortal experience and odysseus experiencing so much magic and monsters and gods#And how every step of the way diomedes only ever politely thanks Athena never argues only does his duty#And how nearly everything odysseus met tried to change him or keep him and how he fought against that with his whole being#Also a lot of feelings about the traditional reward for heros was immortality#This obviously does not include all the times Athena treated odysseus like a barbie doll because ody was 98% not aware of that#Athena post the whole ajax going insane thing: that was fun#Odysseus: great yah super fucking fun love when my allies go mad with desires to torture me to death BTW#Take off the invisibility spell I want nobody trace of it lingering on me I am remaining mortal if it kills me#Athena: definitely not pouting you're no fun one little spell isn't going to permanently alter you#Odysseus: I am not taking any chances any invisibility I have is going to be my own fucking skill and your excellent training not magic#Diomedes: internally:after getting the ability to see through illusions and see gods#Should I mention this to Pallas Athena?

Surely it would be an insult to her intelligence#To remind her that would be casting doubt on her memory and perhaps it is part of a plan and#Who am I to question pallas athenas plans who am I but her devout weapon better to not mention it or any of the other lingering magics#Diomedes realizing a hundred years after the fact that he is in fact immortal: ....should I mention this?#Athena finds it funny to try to sneak magic onto odysseus it's a game for them because their both rat bastards#But not post odyssey it's just triggering then#Actual child solider diomedes#Greek myths

Who's going to write that fic where Kurogiri secretly survived and timed himself to take Tomura somewhere else so everyone would think he was dead.
And then they went for Toga, because everyone would also believe she was dead.
And years later they went for Touya after a lot of planning on how to make his dead convincing.
So now they're all living in some mountain, trying to figure out how and when to take Compress and Spinner with them.
#listen tomura's body evolved constantly and so much and Tomura could have had a recovery quirk originally according to the manga clues#what if Tomura could grow a body from a piece of his finger and what if Kurogiri could teleport into himself to make it look like he died#the ghost of Tomura that Deku saw was the real Tomura and the reason why Toga disappeared is because they took her with them#so Tomura could save her from the blood loss#but it was a while before they could recover from the damage taken#and they couldn't simply communicate with Touya or kidnap him right?#they had to find a way into the place Touya was kept in and plan things out so Touya was really about to die#it'd be a matter of faking his death by little then pretending he became dust or whatever so a body wasn't left#then rushing him to Tomura so he could start a slow healing process#Toga turning into Touya so they can take skin implants from her in his form#absolutely no one can know they're alive tho#just saying#bnha#mha#my hero academia#boku no hero academia#league of villains#lov#bnha spoilers#mha spoilers#shigaraki tomura#toga himiko#dabi#touya todoroki#toya todoroki#Kurogiri

I want to know how you render.
A lot of people seemed to be oddly interested in how I render so...
Shape first
I use solid brush or lasso to block in the light and shadow first.
You can see this in the Till drawing because it's all hard edges
2. Add high saturation colour in the area where the light turns into shadow.
I like to do this cause it gives a glassy transparent feeling to my drawing.
like these:
3. Cause most of my drawings are 70% in shadow + 30% in light, i will render the shadow
that means, adding another "light" to the shadow, like reflective light or so. For the till drawing, its a blue light from the left
However, we need to make sure the secondary light doesn't destroy the main light source, so this secondary light will only cause hue and or saturation changes instead of value changes
...
Above are the logic for my doodle drawings, but if i want to continue, i will do the following:
4. Separating more forms
ie, for the till drawing
if the form faces left, it will be affected by the blue light.
if the form turns away from camera and not affected by the blue light, it will be redish
if the form is hard, shape will have hard edges
if the form turns, shape will have soft edges
5. Separate space
Things in front are solid and things in the back are blurry
---
Well, in my art logic, i think "rendering" is separating more layers of information, ie
separating form's plane (via lighting, edges etc)
separating space (via blurriness and light decay)
separating material (e.g. if hair strip is thin, it will be more transparent etc)
oh and i usually add gradients, so it contrasts with the hard blocks i make ✌
---
hope this helps
I posted some of my drawing process on Bilibili @356Migoro, if anyone is interested.
---
🤔Actually, I intended to make a YouTube channel to share my art shenanigans, but I'm just a bit too busy lately, let me know if there's anything else you are interested✌
---
also, normally I don't paint in a solid step-to-step process, its usually i realise that after i have done something, there's still not enough information, so that i "add logic" to my drawing. (e.g. adding the blue light for the till drawing)
---
and since people asked before:
i use CSP to paint everything
I only use 5 type of pens, they are my main partners in crime✌✌✌ (1) lasso and Default G-pen to line and block in hard edges, (2) Transparent pens for mixing colour (3) Blur tool, (4) Gradient (5) texture pen

#art tutorial#digital art#art process#thanks for having me lols... have a good day#and the reason why my art style changed a lot after my Slow Damage period#is that i traveled to a mountain in China to seek art knowledge from Ale-sensei#(its actually a proper art training institution in China called Magic Leaders but I'm just trying to be funny here)#so yea I am still trying to find my balance between what i already knew and what i learnt there...#and there's a period where i learnt too much and i became really confused so my art style is not very consistant

#sneak peek#whew this next update is taking me longer than I thought I was going to#I have a two hour time limit for my drawing app. And I don’t always draw every day. So it can be a slow process.#and I also don’t really have future pages like- up and ready to make so it’s idnfdfvdvddv it just takes me a while#I wish I had a better upload schedule rather than just like once a month. But it just kind of be like that. :(#I’m a busy college kid. I’m truly surprised. I’m even still doing this comic. I’m glad I am.

Todays been hard and rather horrible and I’m radiating gratitude for the anonymous person who sent me Assassins Creed Valhalla cause it’s been doing a lot of heavy lifting for my mental health lately.
My only accomplishment today other than running around as a gay Viking was to make shortbread cookies for my coworkers as we enter the trenches of Presidents Day.
They’re lemon, rose, and cardamom. They’re kinda tough and the flavor is a bit muddled but I fuckin made them and my coworkers will be grateful. Or else.
#ramblies#I skipped a dose of my thyroid medicine because Richard visit had me off my game#which explains the deep fatigue and eye twitch#then I tried to switch my federal loans to a different repayment plan and had to change my legal name in the system#which slows that process#and our heat is out downstairs#just all around rough

@yacrimago as always you blow me away with your incredible wolf!Bilbo art (LOOK AT HIM IN HIS BLOOD MOON STAGE!! 😍) and your love for this story that I haven’t even dropped yet. (I PROMISE I WILL SOON THOUGH!) So I was waiting til school was out (🥳) before I could reblog this with a little teaser attached. 👀 Just for being an amazing human, fan, and artist! 💗💗💗
Okay, I was going to do some more Blood Moon!Bilbo because of this (precious babe!), but I was watching AUJ the other night and I knew exactly how I wanted to do this scene so how about some wolf!Bilbo going absolutely feral on the orc about to remove Thorin’s head?
Warning: Graphic Violence
When Bilbo finally emerged from the cave into the bright sunlight, he thought perhaps whatever strange magic that had extended his time on two legs had come to an end. However, there was no uncomfortable shifting of bones under his skin or the heavy heat that seemed to weigh on him more in his wolf state. For the first time in over thirty years, Bilbo was able to feel the last of the sun’s rays on his skin. Bilbo closed his eyes, tilting his head west, and promptly began to sob.
He knew he should focus on finding the dwarves. He knew he was far from safe as his nose still retained some of its former strength to know the hills would be crawling with goblins soon. But it was too much. If it wasn’t for the unfortunate side-effect of being invisible, BIlbo would never take the unassuming golden ring off his finger. Half the Shire thought he was dead anyways, and Thorin made it very clear he didn’t want him anymore. Why not live this way? He was a hobbit again. Didn’t that make it worth it?
Bilbo froze, totally and completely conflicted. What if Gandalf was wrong? What if there wasn’t a cure for this curse at the end of this journey? Would being invisible be any worse than being a wolf forever? It was a moment that stretched before him, waiting on a decision that was ultimately stolen from him by a long deep howl. Bilbo looked up, startled to see the sun had already set. That wasn’t what had his heart jumping to beat out of his chest though. It was thirteen shouts followed by more howls and a commanding roar. Orcs and wargs. Bilbo was out of time.
Grimacing slightly, he searched the ground for something he could use as a tie. There was a long strip of leather that could only have belonged to his dwarves. Rolled up, it served his purpose well as he fastened it into a long chain that would loop over his head. Now the tricky part. He slid it through the ring on his finger, making sure to tie it securely before taking a deep breath, and popping the ring off. The change was immediate and familiar, but somehow made worse by the few hours extra he had gotten in his true form. Bilbo shook out his fur to get rid of the tingling left behind, feeling relief when he heard the ring bouncing against his neck. At least he hadn’t lost his little trinket. And it somehow managed to perfectly hide itself in the fur on his chest. Bilbo didn’t have time to congratulate himself though. His dwarves were in trouble.
He put his nose to the ground, picking up on Thorin’s scent immediately which had him charging full speed down the cliff face. The closer he got, the more he was able to pick up. The hunger of the wargs, the stench of the orcs, the fear of the company, and…burning pine? Clearly there was some sort of battle going on, and Bilbo needed to be there. He had to be there for Thorin. Even if the dwarf didn’t want him anymore. And then Bilbo heard a sound that chilled him to the bone. A cry of pain from a proud dwarf king.
Rational thought left him as the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end and a low growl left his throat. Later in his memories, he could recall pieces of the scene he stumbled upon. Gandalf and the Company trapped in a fallen tree, the wargs keeping away from the scattered patches of fire on the cliff, but mostly his vision zoned into Thorin. Thorin laying on a large rock, defeated and reaching for a sword just outside the range of his fingertips, and the large orc posed to remove his head from his body.
He snarled, buying just a small moment of hesitation from the orc, as Bilbo had him pinned with his throat ripped out before he could even defend himself with his blade. Black blood dripped from Bilbo’s jaws as he placed himself defensively between the rest of the orcs and Thorin, his teeth bared to his enemies.
The tension rose exponentially in the clearing as everyone seemed to wait with breath held. The wargs behind the fire paced and whined in uncertainty as even the dwarves fell silent at Bilbo’s unexpected appearance. However, the white orc upon his equally white warg regarded Bilbo coolly. In fact, there was something…off with the way the warg was staring at Bilbo. Something akin to hatred and anticipation all at once. Bilbo flicked an ear, but refused to move a muscle.
“Ilzgoshn (Star-howler).”
At first Bilbo thought the foreign word had come from the orc, but then the warg made a guttural noise that Bilbo was shocked he could actually understand.
“I will wash the hillside with your blood. Your clan should have stuck to your forests.”
Bilbo snapped at the warg and arched his back. A clear warning to stay away. The warg lifted its head almost in shock before giving a menacing purr.
“You know nothing of the Clans, do you, Pup? It’ll make it that much sweeter when I deliver your pelt to your alpha.”
It was at that point that several things happened. The first being the dwarves rallying into battle to attack the other orcs and wargs. The white orc dismounted from the warg and started to make his way towards Thorin. Bilbo immediately launched himself towards the orc when the white warg slammed him into the ground. It moved in for the kill while Bilbo was on his back, and the wolf quickly kicked at the underside of its jaw leaving bloody scratches that got the warg to move away.
Bilbo flipped himself back to his feet, circling the warg. His eyes flickered to Thorin, but Dwalin and Gloin had managed to distract the white orc enough to buy the king a small measure of protection. Still Bilbo would have to wrap things up with this strange warg quickly. He knew the beast had power on its side, but maybe Bilbo could use speed to his advantage.
Seeing an opening, Bilbo danced in close getting the warg to snap before he launched himself onto its back. He latched down on the warg’s neck causing it to roar in protest as it tried to throw Bilbo off. Bilbo held on tight, knowing he was dead if he let go now. That’s when something sharp punctured itself into his side, throwing him off the warg. Bilbo yelped in pain as he flew through the air and hit into the side of a boulder. The warg was still shaking his head, Bilbo teeth clearly having done some damage. It was the white orc who was glaring at Bilbo, his claw hand dripping in red blood. Bilbo watched him approach, weakly trying to rise to his feet. He feared that this could be his end as the orc raised his mace when a large shadow passed overhead. Bilbo looked up not sure he was actually seeing what he thought he was seeing. However, as it swooped down to pick up dwarves, sending wargs and orcs running, Bilbo had to accept that there really were giant eagles invading their battle. And one of them was aiming for Bilbo right now, claws outstretched.
Still thinking of that beautiful story of @sunnyrosewritesstuff with the reverse werewolf.


Not my best but I was just doodling a bit.
#sharing others art#the hobbit#bagginshield#reverse werewolf au#yes azog's warg is speaking in this#its also a werewolf#i promise i'm working on this fic!!#it's just a slow process

Actually I think it's severely underrated how fucking funny ejm Brian has the potential to be when there is no actual end. When he's just living on the ship on the day to day between stories and the like. Ends are so, so subjective when there are no wars or really even active society. Stuff like
Brian on his way to the kitchen to grab smth to feed the octokittens -> Jonny and Tim are arguing in front of the door -> he knows from experience that interrupting or trying to get by would only mean getting himself dragged into it -> the octokittens make (most) everyone happy and deserve to be fed food that won't immediately kill them -> conclusion: shoot both Jonny and Tim before they notice him so he can walk over their corpses to the fridge and get the octokittens food
#drumbot brian#the mechanisms#he lives rent free in my head can u tell?#I need 2 write some shenanigans of Brian being a robot in general too#More of too many processing trees and thoughts and processors not having a good time to his thoughts just simplify and slow a bit

I feel like if Crowley was to have an Angry response to the “rejection” it wouldn’t entirely be at Aziraphale, I honestly think most of his anger would be directed at himself for opening up
He loves Aziraphale, He always will, and He knows it
it’s a direct parallel to the fall
he allowed himself Vulnerability, only for it to lead to an eternity of torture
#it’s gonna be a slow healing process#but just like his fall he eventually found happiness in aziraphale#it will happen again#but this time they’ll do it right#good omens#crowley#aziraphale#aziracrow#ineffable husbands#crowphale#gay omens#aziraphale x crowley#good omens crowley#good omens aziracrow#aziracrow good omens#crowphale good omens#good omens crowphale#aziraphale good omens#good omens aziraphale#crowley good omens#crowley loves aziraphale#aziraphale loves crowley
