Riptide’s themes of found family mean so much to me.
Pirate crews are literally found families IN THE TEXT. The way Roofus talks about the Black Rose crew choosing to collectively raise Chip and Lizzie. Jay’s arc can be read as being about the disconnection with one’s birth family experienced by many queer ppl. ALMOST EVERY CONVERSATION WITH DREY. Ollie is basically the Albatrio’s son.
I AM A SUCKER FOR FOUND FAMILY TROPE, ESPECIALLY ONES THAT DON’T JUST REPLICATE NORMATIVE FAMILY STRUCTURES!11!!1!!!!...!
ishouldmakeapowerpointpresentation...
#jrwi riptide#riptide is such a good example of different applications of queer theory#it's mostly coincidental#BUT I COULD TOTALLY EXPLAIN QUEER MEDIA THEORY USING ONLY EXAMPLES FROM RIPTIDE#i already talked about alienation from birth family#and chosen families#but the whole crew has varying roles and dynamics within it#gillion's got a whole thing going on with gnc#chip's never beating the allegations#if i was gonna go 3 monsters deep into a death of the author (tm) queer reading rant#i could say that pirates as a faction/subculture/??? within the world disrupt heteronormative structures#which VIA our Jay-centric view of them the Navy predominantly represent#jrwi riptide spoilers#i have so many thoughts#but so little attention#krow posts

dreaming abt sophomore year class swap bard!riz
#fantasy high#fantasy high sophomore year#fhsy#riz gukgak#ft. kalina#fh class quangle#tbh Im not suuuper happy with the bones of these designs yet#but also its just a bit hard to measure up to how strong ''kid who wears suit to school'' is#I kiinda gear the sophomore year design specifically towards like. cameraman-esque aesthetics#kind of dude who's working the light rig And the audio at the same time. dude who's running inbetween two huge tripods#theres also a thing with the freshman year arcade scene that I wanted to draw but just do not have the energy today#maybe in the future! if I can be bothered to draw biz lmao#I wanna draw something for cleric!gorgug first anyway... specifically his death in freshman year#man I'm so glad I tossed bard!riz into investigative journalism that is SO annoying. exactly what I set out to do with my classswaps#can you imagine going to school with that guy. can you imagine going to school with tintin#this also makes kipperlilly vs riz even funnier like influencer vs journalist? it'd be the Worst#man thinking of it I should rework gorgug's design too. currently his sophomore design is really zac core lmao#and zac can pull it off but character design wise its. really nothing. laughs#his junior year design is full aerith at least so that one Im very happy with. what if I tell u cassandra is the deity of#the inbetween spaces in this class swap thingy. and gorgug offers her domain as a stop for folks fresh out of a faith to gather themselves#that being transgender as fuck is kinda coincidental lmao. but well I stand by it I like that#nobody's design has jumped out to me like riz and gorgug yet. adaine I have a prreeetty good idea for#mostly bc shes the hoodie kid this time round lmao. gamer adaine true believers rise up#we take it easy! we take it easy as we go. these comics-lite were real fun to do. I should do that more

+1 friendship with Jin Ling: He warns you now.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#jin ling#I'm not usually a fan of 'character tries to help another character but there's a misunderstanding' but this scene rocked.#mostly because there *is* a genuine shift in how JL sees his uncle (mxy in his eyes).#yeah the stinky gay insult gets thrown but there's at least a small step towards mellowing the hell out.#I've yet to see any 'wwx/ylly takes jin ling and raises him AU's but idk i think there's potential there#Something something responsibility for his actions. Something something coincidental petty revenge on the Jin Clan by taking the heir.#sadly I don't think it would make as much of a wave as one might think. Lots of other candidates would *love* that kid to stay lost.#actually I think it would be Jiang Cheng who suffers the most in this AU. JL is his depression puppy. His designer purse dog.#to be fair to him...A-yuan is also treated like wwx's depression puppy. JL can't escape that fate I suppose.

i’ve been thinking about her for a while so this is the kid mario and peach would have IF peach ruled openly as a toad 🙏🏽
her name is apricot! when she gets older she also goes by the nickname albie :]
due to the circumstances regarding her existence she has quite the magical reserves and has the potential to eclipse her mom as a mage
but for now, she’s just a kid
#gari draws#gari’s ocs#oc: apricot#nintendo#smb#mareach fankid#fankid#toad peach au#like. technically but not really#i can’t in good conscience have her in the actual au bc 1. headache 2. i can’t think of a situation where she would willingly do this#the relationship issues would go crazy#anyway in my canon toads mostly reproduce asexually using spores from their tails#in this instance peach also used magic etc o7 since mario is obviously not a toad#her name is directly inspired by my study abroad in italy#while i was there i saw so many apricot (albicocca) flavored things#literally like at a cafe or rest stop you could get croissants filled with nutellla pistachio blend or apricot#bags of mini croissants with apricot filling etc#i also ate a lot of apricots while i was there it was insane (and so good)#anyway the prevalence brought me to the headcanon that mario’s favorite fruit is apricots#coincidentally a stone fruit 👀#and perfect for naming the daughter of a peach#sorry but mario will never have sons i tried it like 10 years ago#i really didn’t have plans for the toad au mareach to have a kid but my ass was like ‘ok but what if’ 💀

so as currently stated I just finished binge-watching Invincible (which I really love oh my gosh) and I'm all caught up, but I was beating myself up about ONCE AGAIN having another smart, red-headed heroine who likes pink and wants to do good in the world as a favorite character in a series (Atom Eve, seriously, I love her so much)
then I end up watching her special episode and get to this part
are you kidding meeeeeeee girrrllllllll worlds are collidingggg
#atom eve#invincible#powerpuff girls#like if there was even a TEENY TINY AMOUNT of inspo from blossom at all for her#like the smallest ittiest bittiest bit#i mean obvs i see it but I figure it's mostly coincidental haha#also can i be real... her powers to make objects are what i wish the girls did in the reboot#like ACTUAL COOL THINGS bending matter to her will and doing useful stuff like making ramps and spikes and having things be awesome#not turning into like a giant sponge uuuugggghhhhh for the love of pete#sorry for the non-ppg posting i just i have so many feelings

Mumbo and Etho were in the royal army together. It wasn't a terribly long period of time, only a few months really.
Mumbo had joined as a mission from Grian to infiltrate the royal ranks while the resistance was still in its infancy stages and in desperate need of any kind of intel. This was long before Grian had eyes and ears at every turn.
Etho was nearing a decade of service and by that point, he had enough. He had seen all of the corruption within the kingdom, how it valued power and control over everything else, even its own citizens and those who served it. He had seen it first hand. He would bear the scars of it for the rest of his life.
Their paths didn't cross much in that short period of time, it really had no reason to with their differences in rank. In fact, it was something Mumbo actively tried to avoid. He had figured that if anyone was smart enough to figure him out, it would be the kingdoms most infamous knight. And he had been right.
Now you see, Mumbo wasn't the best spy. He was, after all, young and inexperienced. It was only a matter of time before he got caught. He was only fortunate that it was Etho who found him elbow deep in important documents.
Mumbo thought for sure he was a goner, but to his surprise the feared and well known solider actually helped him. Etho made sure Mumbo got out of the castle safely with whatever information he needed, in exchange for one simple thing: a place in the resistance.
It was purely coincidence that they would end up working closely together in the end. No one had known that Etho was a highly talented engineer on top of his famed battle skill.
#GG rivals au#mumbo jumbo#ethoslab#hermitcraft#life series#again; etho is not too important to the grand scheme of things despite how it may seem so far#I am very slowly piecing together backstories and context and he jsut so happens to be a part of two of the recent posts#purely coincidental#in fact this might be the last time he will be mentioned for quite a bit#If I am being entirely honest as well I have mostly pared the two of them together in this little au of mine#because I have had the desire to see them work together for the longest time#I think they make for quite the funny duo they do

So far in this game
DT’s officially passed Lindsay Whalen to be 4th in career assists
BG hit 800 blocks
Tash cloud becomes the franchise leader in most assists in a season (a record which was most recently held by Diana Taurasi)
#phoenix mercury#wnba#brittney griner#diana taurasi#natasha cloud#the season assists is probably the wildest one#mostly that dt used to hold it#bc to my knowledge she is primarily a shooting guard#though I know she mentioned that she played point before westhead?#I need to dive into these stats some more#I would love to have a true archive of 2000s games smh#well because sds played basically 2 full seasons (2020 isn’t going to set records)#ok i looked it up the last record was set in 2013#she also had 185 in 2014 and 176 in 2018#sds had 168 and 166 in 2021 and 2022#cappie had 171 in 2009#penny interestingly enough had 161 in 2010#cloud is now tied at 30th for season assists [w t-spoon] this season#she also holds places 9 and T-11 with the mystics in 2022 [239] and 2023 [229]#DT's 197 from 2013 is coincidentally tied with whalen for 40th on season assists [also from 2013]

love when this is referred to as the gifted kid website. shockingly my mental disorders made me mentally disordered and school never really vibed with that so. couldn’t be me
#ppl always talking about their whatever grade reading level and how many books they’d read as kids and im just over here like🧍🏽#I’ve never been actually bad at english or reading but I couldn’t focus on reading books to save my fucking life#I hated those sheets where you had to read like a certain number of books or whatever over the course of a semester or the year or whatever#my GATE test scores for english were super high but my math was bad enough that I never qualified#and adhd made me not even perform well in English half the time because I couldn’t pay attention I couldn’t read long books I couldn’t turn#in my assignments or if I did they were late and etc etc etc#don’t get me started with math#I was the worst in my class in third grade at minute math and never made it to the levels of minute math my classmates did#(they posted results on the wall for everyone to see)#and in 6th grade I was put into an additional remedial math class#throughout middle-high school I was at the level of most classmates in terms of the classes I took but that’s only because I was not allowe#to fail and was put through absolute fucking hell with a billion tutors and grueling hours of extra work from them and blah blah blah#like I remember how I felt in those tutoring sessions and half the time I actually wanted to cry.#I didn’t start doing solidly genuinely Good in school until senior year of high school.#not coincidentally around the same time I started taking adderall I think#I had accommodations by 9th grade but they didn’t do that much except for the function that let me turn in assignments up to 2 days late#without penalty. which i had teachers question sometimes and i had to pull the Yeah it’s Literally Against The Law to not allow me this car#anyway. point is. i was never in the gate program and most of my friends were and it was mostly adhd related#adhd is considered such a quirky nothing disorder nowadays that I don’t even like mentioning I have it really. because what people think of#when I say the term is Not what i actually dealt with and made school torturous and made my parents lash out at me for things and etc etc#depression and dysphoria did not help either. but I digress#I’m not sure why im making this post#kibumblabs

Finnish names and Swedish nicknames honestly sound so cute to my Dutch speaking ears. Like there's a guy in BiB called Kasperi? That's adorable. I have a friend with a Swedish partner and his entire family in law call him Sigge. That's adorable.
Meanwhile the people I know are like. I'm Diede. I know a few people named Wouter, Jens, Joost, Gert, Geert etc. Boring ass names (except mine ofc)
meanwhile to my finnish ears you and your compatriots sound like gnomes

what's one trope you will always love, and you realize that loving it this much says A Lot about you, but you can't really help it?
#that post i rbed earlier abt characters who think they're unimportant made me think.#anyway yeah feel free to rb and put your answer in the tags if you wanna 🫡 I'm interested#I'm not sure what mine is. i think a revealing trope abt me is characters who think they're unlovable being proven wrong#but like..... idk how much i like this trope? mostly bc i don't remember running into it much outside of fics n such#maybe characters who hate themselves being shown their strengths or reasons why ppl appreciate them (<- never recovered from wan ep12)#I'm also a big fan of twinks who hate their dad and i only recently came to terms with why that is.#(the twinks part is coincidental. they just usually hate their dad in a more relatable way to me than others)

is it morbid to look at the dates on headstones and hope to see your birthday? no...its about kinship and the beauty of human connection
#also some self obsession sorry#mostly the other stuff though#very coincidentally saw the headstone of someone who passed at my age. i think if i saw that some years ago it would be a meaningful moment#of reflection. as it stands. im just disappointed theres so many 28th octs and no 26s#there really is something so very humbling about reading these peoples names n idk just like#taking a moment to think about how big the world is and idk. something. anyway

Here we have a man named Harold Shelton, he's trans. Harold is a big fan of a villain from a comic book series called Frigid Beam AKA Fred Ingrid. Frigid Beam's gimmick is exactly what the name implies he can shoot 'Frigid Beams' from his hands due to being hit by a meteor made of ice. There's no real good explanations for why Harold likes Frigid Beam so much, he just thinks he's kinda cool (no pun intended). Sexuality statement time, Harold is gay.
#art#digital art#noelbobby#noelbobby humans#trans#transgender#trans man#any resemblance to any real ice-themed supervillains#is mostly coincidental#oh I almost forgot#gay#because Harold is an' all
