Always sucks to me seeing those people who like, developed a following with one specific game/franchise/whatever who've just like, clearly fallen out of love with it but are still engaging and making content for it since they're 'the [whatever thing] guy' but you can clearly tell they're bitter and sour about it since all their content is just sad and complaining and shit and it's just like

Dude, if you're not having fun you can like, do something else

You know that, right?

#it sucks that the way online subcultures form that ends up completely deincentivising basic shit like ''finding new interests''#or ''avoiding burnout''#and you see it everywhere too #like with tumblr blogs or youtubers or streamers #but idk it's pretty telling for someone who still says they like a thing but has absolutely nothing good to say about it #putting absolutely nothing but bad vibes out there bringing down the atmosphere #most heartbreaking when it's streamers who's livelihoods rely on that thing that's burning them out #but I've seen it with shit like tumblr blogs and such too #like if it's your literal job that's one thing but like #lotta the time I see it it's just like not #and like #we live in an age where we're literally drowning in media to consume #if you're burnt out or need a break you can just like #find something else to occupy your time #nobody's paying you you can just leave #the self is constantly changing #ever-shifting like water #it's ok if your interests do too #if it sucks hit da bricks #and all that #pun's text posts

ok I've been teasing about this comic a long time if you're interested you can save the page!

#im not gonna explain all the marketing stuff that went into this decision but like #basically. I don't like posting art of them and not having something to link people if theyre interested...#anyways genuinely like dont worry too much about getting to it its literally just if youre interested and do want to read it #cause its just extremely hard to get people in on something RIGHT when it launches #unless you're. yknow. webtoon. and have access to a ton of money #and I really want my TTA audience to be able to move over to it if theyre interested!#theres more to it than this but basically. I will not be like advertising this cause I'm not even POSTING There #I literally just want to have a link I can append to the art I'm already sharing #thats all. anyways carry on #we were legion #oh but I did wanna share the link like once cause I know some people are interested #ok back to work #got like 10 days til return! its so soon!

Can I request you draw soushi- nah I’m kidding give us more keishin PLEASE

ok i’ll combine both your ideas into one horrible mess if thats ok

#Soushin… i do see them as more of a toxic friendship than a toxic romantic relationship ngl #i see soushin as queer platonic #but i find their dynamic absolutely FASCINATING!!!!#like midori is deceased and shin knows this. but sometimes his mannerisms are just a little too similar to what he’s familiar with #and sometimes for a second. he doesn’t see the ai of his dead friend but he sees midori right in front of him #how fun #(in case it wasn’t obvious- i ship soushin the same way i ship megumi and keiji)#(they’re horrible for eachother and they shouldn’t be together but it’s interesting for their characters)#ok thank you #yttd #your turn to die #kgs #kimi ga shine #keiji shinogi #midori yttd #sou hiyori #shin tsukimi #did not like the end result but it’s ok we have our flop eras 🔥🔥🔥#ALSO SORRY TO MY MUTUALS WHO ARE HERE FOR OC ART HHHH IM REWRITING LORE

What did/do you like about Pharah?

Uh, gameplay-wise, I really love characters in shooters who rely on three-dimensional movement techs. Chaining together hover and jump to stay in the air for as long as possible and keep momentum is so satisfying, and picking enemies off from the sky made me feel like a bird of prey. I was a good Pharah main.

Story-wise, there unfortunately isn't much to canonically go off because Pharah is so underutilized and neglected. Her personality's pretty boilerplate "heroic hero" (she's literally inspired by Captain America).

But it's the crumbs/bits and pieces that I really latched onto. Pharah's a confirmed lesbian; her short story with Baptiste implies she harbors a crush on Mercy (fucking thank you.). She's biracial Egyptian/First Nations. She has major mommy issues, having grown up both admiring and resenting Ana. She's the bridge between Old Overwatch, inspired by the idealized heroes who surrounded her childhood, and New Overwatch. She's one of the only inter-generational characters in the cast; someone whose experiences span the gap, which is why I seriously believe Pharah would make a great main character.

There isn't much to go off of, though; she's a very uncomplicated character (she's a soldier for a private military corporation, lol.). But that just means she's a blank slate character, so I've seen fanfic writers run wild and create some really interesting takes on her. My favorite interpretation of her's a dense, herbo gym-bro type (a lot of her liens are about work outs, exercising, and playing sports) who's easily excitable under her seemingly self-serious, armored visage. We see how she tends to gloat and hype herself up when she's on a streak too, so Pharah definitely has a competitive and boastful side under her more professional and militant performance.

Now Mercy? Mercy is a real complex character.

#i was a diehard pharmercy shipper back then btw #the inherent homoerotic experience of pharmercy gameplay.#the homoerotic experience of looking to the skies to fly to safety under the protection of your knight in shining armor #the homoerotic experience of feeling white hot murderous rage at an enemy trying to pick off your pocket mercy #i still kinda despise gency lmao. you cannot convince me mercy would be in love with genji. at all.#he'd make her feel so uncomfortable and guilty. in my head. the canon is obviously different #gency is sexless. absolutely zero bite or tension.#i could go on about mercy and how her character has so much missed potential #i'm no longer in my overwatch fandom phase but #i still think about that new flirty line they added in ow2 where mercy goes “ahh you're like my knight in shining armor!”#and pharah goes “that's what i'm goin for ;)” and i sigh dreamily #really happy that pharah outright says she's a lesbian too but it's hard to feel good about rep when you know blizzard uses it for pr #to be honest i'm willing to bet cash that blizzard's keeping pharmercy in their back pocket as ammo for the next controversy #last year we already saw logs about pharah fretting and taking care of mercy and the two talking about how good it is to see each other #tbh pharah has the same energy/demeanor as applejack. cheerful and competitive in a can of whoopass #but yeah overall pharah's a pretty shallow character. i have IDEAS on how i'd go about deepening her but. whatever #that's sorta what happens when you have to juggle a cast of 40 characters. a lot get left with the bare minimum #ok so i wrote this entire post up saying that pharah isn't in ow2's storymode when she is. she's in the story i just. forgot #because she doesn't do or contribute anything interesting #ok i'm stopping here. overwatch's story is such an interesting narrative mess i could go on for hours #i dunno how you come up with such incredible character designs and give them such an unincredible story #it's also so so so interesting seeing the conflicting takes on characters the writers have #mercy in gameplay and voicelines is peppy and cheerful and optimistic #but mercy in the storymode journal logs is tired. jaded. a total shut in who forgets to leave her room and social #and YES! THAT'S WHAT I WANT!!! THAT'S MERCY TO ME!!! THE DOCTOR WHO FORGETS TO TAKE CARE OF HERSELF #ask me #anon

Hobbies that are suitable for a king that laios would totally be into:

- dogs!

- horses and horseriding

- FALCONRY - this is like ultimate kingly hobby and you have pet raptors!!!!!

- hunting in general

Like this is all stuff that kings historically were into and did and would not be considered unusual or undignified

#'oooh but laios loves animals' he also loves monsters and guess what he did to them #i dont believe a walking mushroom poses more of a threat to a small hunting party than the average boar come on #kabru voice: ok my liege we just need to go over tomorrows schedule then you can go play with ur touys #laios voice: yay!!!!#dungeon meshi spoilers #dungeon meshi manga spoilers #dungeon meshi post canon #this is in the interest of making your king laioses postcanon a little less miserable #your kabruses too. he cannot do all of the work come on #meowing to myself

oh im obsessed with this actually… who ever wrote this one i am kissing u on the forehead and hugging you real tight… inigo is such a loverboy im kkkhhhhhhijnsdnfng

#ann plays awakening #EDITING TO SAY I STARTED TAG VENTING HIT READMORE AT YOUR OWN RISK #anyways #LAST LINE IS A KILLERRRR WOW #‘ann werent you just pairing olivia with thar—‘ OLIVIA IS A BUSY WOMAN OKAY #but also i just had this old save file from when i wanted to see pink inigo and decided to get some more supports #im obsessed actually like #ok tag venting time maybe this should be its own post but u guys know who i am #not only does this support in my very educated opinion do a good job at emulating inigo’s way of speaking #but i think theres also a very underrated characteristic he has that not a lot of people talk about and its that hes honestly quite morbid #him spending hours talking to and dancing with his mother’s grave is very beautiful and moving but it is also not a normal way to grieve #which makes sense because duh nothing about his life is normal but its j like. you know #if robin is his father (and maybe j the normal convo i dont remember) in the hot springs scramble he’ll insist upon bringing—#severed risen limbs home as a way to remember the peacefulness (lol) of the springs #and he thinks absolutely nothing of it!!#i think he gets attached to things just a little too intensely and because his life is surrounded by death how he expresses that can be #very interesting. and he talks about death all time more than the other kids #bc while a lot of their coping mechanisms are based in fear and the need to instill confidence in themselves (think cyn or gerome or owain #or sev or yarne or noire)#and how their SCARED of death and of loss and adapt different behaviors to act like theyre not (to varying degrees of success)#i think inigo is much more accepting of the fact that death follows him and has made it a normal presence in his life #which is not a good thing it means that he hasnt let himself grieve. he lets death hang over him and follow him instead of pushing back #also guess which one of the awakening trio in fates has the canonical story death. just by the way lmao #anyways bc im writing this in the tags on my phone i cant actually see what the hell ive been saying im j stream of consciousnessing this #but my point is that inigo has a weird fixation on death and dying that stems from his inability to make peace with death and grieve #and i think him idolizing death in this support (this BRILLIANT fan support that made me ill) is so in character and so lovely #i miss him so bad (hes literally in the photos im posting) grghhhrgah #i wuv him :(

"i dont see what ppl see in the lore its so boring"

shuffles my feet around, most ppl talking about the lore are exclusively talking about love nikki and shining nikki, the two games most ppl started the series with and have been around longer so theyve had time to explore their stories

now granted im assuming this person has only played infinity nikki, if not then hey not everyone is gonna like/care for the lore thats just how it is with video games

i havent spent too much time with infinity nikki bc i move at a snails pace and only play a little bit at a time so i cant say much on its lore

but these games tend to slowly move towards the more out there lore ok you gotta wait like a year before someone dies off

its also a gacha game so ur not getting all the lore at once ok they gotta have reason to keep ppl coming back and playing

#text #i feel like if ur coming from other games that are lore heavy yea its probably not gonna be too interesting to you #but ppl who go into the games expecting a simple dress up often get jumpscared by lore existing at all #or lore that isnt all sunshine and rainbows #but its not uncommon now theres plenty of dress up games with dark lore now #time princess life makeover dti that one wii game #i forgot the lore for alice closet and cocoppa girls rip both of them i dont remember if they got dark but there was lore #i dunno some ppl find it funny u gotta fight the prime minister after he literally stabs a woman in front of you after you spent like 1-2 #years fighting purely with clothes like even when those clothes are weapons u dont use them as such #so when they do its like oh. OH OK.#and then u cant even beat him until u craft ur cool sword that just magically stops him from sweeping your pink lil head into the sewers #and yea theres longtime players who are sick and tired of nikki just being reduced to HEHEH DRESS UP GAME WHERE UR FRIEND GETS MURDERED #IN WAR THEY DONT KNOW WHATS COMING HAH #why did i make these tags im running out of room and have to keep making more #antway yea its nothing new for games but for its genre it can shock people #anyone in this club read tps house of horrors only story i care about before i quit playing

sorry if idk this but what do you think about Wordgirl now in 2024 do you still like it do you still want to make art or talk about it or are you just done with all of it forever and plus i seen that you haven't made art of it since 2022 so you just done with all of it oh yeah and what about The Magnus Archives + Wordgirl ao3 fic too like is that just going to be and i know that your working on 2 au's now just wanting to know that's all

My interests tend to come in intense bursts and then fade. Unless something like, big happens like it gets a reboot its unlikely I'll be coming back to it anytime soon. As for the fic I don't have any current plans to finish it unfortunately.

#Its so shocking whenever anybody mentions that fic to me #like its just such a specific combo of interests how are there this many people interested in it...#I have some fragments of unfinished chapters for it laying around but I was struggling to get them to work #and I definitely dont have the motivation to finish them now #If youre curious the chapters were going to be Slaughter avatar miss Power and Web avatar Mr Big #and possibly Flesh avatar Butcher but I never got around to starting that one #The Miss Power chapter was basically going to be about her having kind of lost her thread #I wanted to leave a lot of ambiguity as to what happened with her home planet #but she hadnt been in contact with them for agessssss and her radio is damaged and her ship is in bad shape #the chapter was just going to be her being like 'pfff I dont interpersonal connection Im doing great out here. Murdering. All on my own'#Well she has her little squirl thing but she treats him like an animal #mr giggle cheeks or whatever #anyway I wanted it to imply that whatever happened her bloodthirst was destroying her #The Mr Big chapter was from Lesley's perspective #She would have been one in a long long line of assistants that Mr Big went through like candy #Lesley is his favorite though because. while she is terrified of him. shes still willing to push him. to be honest with him #but she also knows exactly when to step off. when to lie to appease him #( its always a tossup as to whether he wants a sweet lie or the harsh truth that day. He can always tell either way #its a gamble he does to be cruel. She always picks right though. or maybe he's more lenient with her than he should be)#He likes that she knows exactly how to push him without ever stepping over the line #He likes that her guilt and revulsion are slowly eating her up inside but shes too selfish to leave #She likes being special. She likes the idea of ruling the world alongside him #She'll always be second in command but shell be so much higher than everyone else #and shes willing to do anything to get that #Mr big doesnt think shell ever make it that far #but he likes her anyway #shes the one assistant he'll be sad about dying #OK damn apparently I did still have things to say about this old fic DAMN #still not gonna finish it tho. they call me the struggler becaus.e writing is a struggle...

(in general, removed from any specific au's where he needs to swim/not swim for Plot)

(personally, i think my stance is that he has some ability to keep himself afloat in calmer waters- on the shore or in a pool- but not in the way where its a particular skill. hes spend enough time dicking around in the shallows with Jack & Sam & Ed to know how to handle himself in water where he cant consistently reach the bottom, to feel comfortable cooling off by a waterfall, but is also keenly aware that if he goes overboard, even in relatively calm waters, being able to swim isnt going to do anything to save his life if a dinghy isnt sent. hes not gonna drown the second he's in the ocean or anything, but hes screwed if the waters a little too rough or its late or a raid and it isnt noticed before the ships a way away.)
