apparently pjotv twt was being weird about book!Percy's eyes being green because they don't think the ocean can be green (???) so consider this a sequel to my Grace siblings eye colors post and here is some visual references of green water for all your Percy inspo needs:
And for reference, the water around New York-ish where Percy is usually is somewhere around this color:
or some alternatives:
or here is a nice hazel green if you want his eyes more on the brown side, which is very common in freshwater ponds and streams:
or if you want him to have totally brown eyes - water rich in tannins will appear brown, greenish-brown, or very dark brown - this is sometimes called "blackwater" due to often appearing very dark or having low visibility:
#pjo#percy jackson#riordanverse#i am eternally amused by old pjo fandom's tendency to interpret ''sea-green'' as ''tropical seas / neon aqua''#mostly just cause as someone who grew up around boats when i think of ''sea-green'' i have a very particular color in mind#and its that kind of murky desaturated green#like sometimes ur at the docks and are just shoving your hand into low visibility green water to catch jellyfish yknow#thats the vibe. thats what i think of whenever i hear ''sea-green''#reach into your local harbor and you may find a friend and a boy (jellyfish)#and i respect not everybody is as familiar with the ocean but ''Percy's eyes being blue is *better* because the ocean is blue not green!''#is. just a ridiculous statement to me.#like. just. first and foremost. claiming blue eyes are ''better'' and the implications in that (bleugh)#secondly - claiming that ''the ocean isnt GREEN'' is just. well you're just wrong so jot that down#it is in fact not uncommon for the ocean to be green. this is very normal actually#the ocean not always being blue does not feel like particularly groundbreaking news????#like gonna be real my guy usually the ocean is actually pretty. idk. greyish.#especially if its not actively a very sunny day in the summer#cause a lot of the time if the water is just reflecting the sky and is not being particularly affected by whatever is actually in the water#then. well. the sky is usually greyish! on your average day the sky is usually kinda grey! it usually only gets really blue when its sunny#but usually water has. yknow. stuff in it. a lot of the time algae and such. so it ends up murkier/greenish#anyways this has been: AALV's oddly specific nitpicking about Percy's eye color

like its fully okay to say happy pride to Eddie Diaz bc what the fuck am i gonna do about it but you guys get why people might have an issue with that right? like its not coming from homophobes, its coming from other queer people who are tired of the whole "well he's gay to me" thing. it's like when someone asks who you're favorite female character is and you name a man. like sure yeah it's a little silly or whatever but you guys get why that sucks when you're trying to have a serious conversation about the way female characters are treated. it's the same thing for queer characters. sure headcanon this guy all you want but remember all of the canon queer characters come before him. obviously if the show decides to go forward with queer eddie then hell yeah! but it hasn't yet, they call him canonically cis-heterosexual and until anything else gets acknowledged by canon, he is not actually included in the queer characters list. like it's important to talk about hen, karen, josh, michael, david, eva, buck, and tommy wayyyyy before you start to mention eddie
#this is kinda one of those things thats like okay yeah do what you want but dont get mad when people call you ridiculous for it#eddie diaz#911#feel like this ones gonna either be zero notes or im gonna get a hate anon either way mwah i speak my truth#i suppose this is in many ways about people ignoring henren and bucktommy in favor of other things#and to an extent its fine if you have a preference but like. those are the Canon Queer Couples. so.#i love queer!eddie to be clear but im not gonna like. actually include him in the canon queer characters list.

im almsot 30 pages into the karaoke fic and we havent even gotten to the singing yet why do i do this to myself
#also took out what i felt were my potentially incendiary jokes thatd made its way in as a canadian writing about canadians#but i still think i've managed to make JJ reasonably The Worst without being actually The Worst Worst. Owns multiple properties#in Vancouver and doesn't even live in most/all of them and keeps them solely for the investment while being smug about it kinda Worst. Amon#other ridiculously expensive cities that are no doubt also in a housing crisis. so theres that!

knuckles series spoilers like actual spoilers not just me vaguely talking about my feelings
i cant believe they put iblis in the sonic movies before amy . what timeline are we in . sorry i was gonna hold out for a litlte bit on saying anything that could be an actual spoiler but i literally cant stop thinking about Giant Iblis Puppet Jumpscare . also for people who didnt actually watch it and are reading the posts about it this happens when wade is knocked out and sent to the magic ghost dimension and meets pachacamac and theres a musical number where wade is in a knuckles costume acting out knuckles' life so far and the giant iblis puppet shows up because apparently knuckles has fought iblis before??? and the iblis puppet is holding a laptop singing about facebook marketplace. im not lying i couldnt even make this up if i tried
also when i say "damn cant believe iblis got in before amy" i understand that amy would have been harder to incorporate its just wild that this happened. does that make sense. idk
#or maybe it was just a dream sequence that wasnt actually part of knuckles past i dont fucking KNOWWW anymore#and the pirate site i was watching on isnt working rn so i cant go back and check#on one hand i dont understand why they would make that into a knuckles thing. that has nothing to do with him#but on the other . this is one of those scenes that was kinda hilarious to me because of how ridiculous the whole thing is#like the thing i mentioned before of not really liking wade and wishing he wasnt the protagonist#but some of his scenes in this show being like a car crash you cant look away from because of how weird and unexpected they are#i mean this Was intended to be a comedic scene but you know#knuckles series spoilers#idk how to tag this. i mean its under the readmore so youre choosing to look at it

Do you guy's want to see Pixel Perciver?
Im playing the GBA HP games again
this time the COS one and look they're actually kinda cute this time <3 In comparison to how the last one i showed for Percy looked at least lol
Also unrelated but look at this window?? i think it's pretty
#percy weasley#oliver wood#perciver#I actually kinda like the art style in this one#for the most part ron for example looks ridiculous#Also it was kinda funny because this game actually uses Percy as an enemy because he's a prefect#so its like “You have to avoid Percy!!” and then i bee lined it to Percy dskljfdsklf

we be copin, lads
#art#my art#digital art#doodle#shitpost#dont stop me now#artist persona#i swear by this song if you ever get real mad or really keyed up; dancing aggressively to it actually genuinely helps#like maybe cuz its kinda ridiculous to dance angrily to such an upbeat song?#at least it gets some energy out so i can focus#anyways im gonna sleep#the lack of sleep definitely doesnt help the anger issues

mad scientist hair
#normal woman taking normal selfies in her home#i don't go out like this btw#the face hiding isn't even about privacy bc I'm not that bothered tbh#I just currently dislike my face. I put on some weight and it gets round immediately its ridiculous#my mum makes fun of it bc she knows it's a sure way to make me mad. she's evil#anyway I don't actually wear glasses#I mean I do but it's blue light glasses because I stare at a screen for at least 8 hrs a day#it's occurred to me that people who only see me in videocalls likely think I wear glasses#like in my day to day life#I don't. I have near perfect vision#which is kinda sexy isn't it?#please say yes it's the only thing I've got#*#to delete#most likely#in fact I'm not sure why I'm posting this. I'm bored

getting back on my drawing slowly but surely ^^ here's an aleena
#sonic the hedgehog#sth#sth aleena#aleena the hedgehog#sorta vent in tags but its more rambling TDLR i got injured right after the other stuff lol :sob:#just a tw for xacto knives & vomitting#I probably would have gotten back sooner but I ended up having a pretty nasty accident with an Xacto knife#design students remember your xacto safety and dont end up like me#my mom says it's probably because I was distracted with other events so I wasn't paying as much attention as i should have#you always feel like they're overreacting about safety till you end up in an accident :skull:#or well#Ive been cut before with Xactos but they weren't from cutting straight against a ruler and not realizing your finger is in the way#they were mostly because of how I'd accidentally push my finger too close to the back of the knife#and circles#“Go fast with a lot of pressure” - my design teacher's instructions on straight lines... yeah. I did that.#It's kinda crazy though cause I've gotten worse injuries but HOLY FUCK#Like yeah. Spraining my ankles hurt... burns hurt... that time my elbow just decided to be unbearably painful for no reason#that last one still confuses me cause what the hell??? anyways this time was just#an actual ridiculous amount of pain for what it was#I threw up 5 times from the pain all at once... which has only ever happened before with the elbow thing#at least this was an actual reason. unlike the elbow... which I LITERALLY JUST WOKE UP AND IT WAS SEARING PAIN LIKE WHAT THE HELL????#anyways#Now that it doesnt hurt as bad it's kinda neat to look at#and think about in hindsight cause it bled a lot :sob:

imagine if fandom would treat buddie vs bucktommy the way of twilight fandom
Team Edward vs Team Jacob
I want merch, SNL skits, academic essays, fanfictions that become best selling books with character names being changed and later full length movies made after it
#instead we have moral contests and anon death threats lmfao#like I know that happened during the twilight era too#but its been so long we can look back and see that the whole ship war thing was actually kinda ridiculous?????#like when you look back in ten years are you going to feel good about the way you acted in fandom?#would the death threat anons feel good?#are you “morally right” about a ship or character#would making gay men in fandom feel threatened help you sleep better at night?#also buck being bella is sending me bye#kayla.txt#tbd

Yeah, I did fill 4 sketchbooks in 4 months so far this year. Huh? Am I gonna post even an ounce of it? Well, you see, I am allergic to my phone, so you will have to come CATCH ME
#da#nooo but I am so saddd it's so much easier to show stuff off irl 😭#if it could look even halfway decent I've considered doing flip throughs of sketchbooks on video#except I draw in pencil and cameras hate that and want me to explode#idk it is truly just better to somehow gain access to my terrible trove of sketchbooks#no but man that sounds like such an ideal hang out. get all my oc lore by sitting on my floor with me as we go through the archives#gosh I should count how many I've filled up at this point#I love that the number increases exponentially as the years go on#like I think 2018 began the precedent of 4 a year minimum which was kinda wild#another ridiculous difficult project I have given a lot of thought to: combing through every sketchbook and either redrawing#or printing off important story related bits and compiling them all into a convenient binder. maybe binding them into a book.#anyway it's pretty much all a drag no matter how you slice it#come to my HOUSE and look at my CREATURES#u don't know this bc I've learned to be silly sneaky but I have stayed up wayyyy too late AGAIN#but I've scheduled this to post at a normal time so you'll never know. unless you read the tags. but that's its own punishment isn't it#hey bonus enticement to look at my boo stuff that doesn't get on the blog. there's smut. and you KNOW I'm a coward who shan't ever post that#actually we'll be lucky if I'm not the same coward in real life too#it's only Dick and Vinny. they get rights. i don't care if anyone else has sex. I don't care if I have sex.#the one song I hope I don't have sex. I hope we both don't have sex. that's actually Vinny though.#I'm more sex favorable and sex positive than he could ever be#y'know this is a very 4am convo to have and actually how prepared am I for this to live in a pm afternoon time#welp. maybe I should stop being addicted to tags and letting loose all my secrets#I shan't grow I shan't do better and I shan't ever change. this is the da promise <3

okay. finished veilguard. um. it sure was definitely a game.
#cri.txt#like you cant argue that it isnt a game thats for sure#mor srsly tho ermmm#its just okay#in terms of being a dragon age game... it is BAD#in terms of it being a regular game. its like. okay.#there were a lot more qol features in this game esp after inquisition which i think is great#personally inquis was like barely playable gameplay wise#writing wise... the game peaked at the seige of weissaupht. i liked the cage for the gods sequence. that was very cool.#i liked the last gambit and how depending on ur relationship with ur comoanions they can die on the missions you dole out#which is interesting and fun to me. ibcluding the bosses being the companion quests bosses if u dont finish them#i do think having so many companion deaths in the last quest is probably not great for subsequent games . ? but whatever ig#companions themselves are kinda uninteresting to me . ? like this is easily the worst batch. the only true standouts were like davrin and#maybeeeee bellara?#lucanis was especially disappointing actually. i was hoping theyd do more with the. abomination stuff but it was just nothing in the end#spite couldve easily just not been in the game#also he pissed me tf awfff#two shots at ghilanain and he misses both like. YOU HAD ONE JOB AND YOU CANT DO IT RIGHT. STAND UP MAN#couldnt even kill the venator war commander#teia had to do it for him. URGH USELESS#but yeah the idea of a non mage abomination defo couldve been interesting#taash's writing... well its already been talked to death so whatever#ive always been a story >> gameplay person so the fact that the writing dropped in quality this badly is such a shame#all the different types of endings are essentially the same. the only thing that is changed is how solas is handled. and some of them are s#ooc for him its ridiculous#oh and the secret ending at the ending was also so bad. introducing a cliche council of vague evilness that is implied to have controlled#everything from the start? snooze fest#its so bad. it ruins the complexity of loghains character. boils down the complex political tensions in da2. and so on#like its just so aggravating seeing da devolve into this#UURRGGGHHH CAN WE PLASE GO BACK TO CHARACTER AND POLITICAL BASED STORYTELLING PLEASEEE PLSPSLPSLPLSPLSSS

JOKING this is very 🥹
#aa lb#now usually i would reprimand him for essentially adopting a child as a coping mechanism for losing direction in life#but this time around i actually gotta give it to him.. cuz valant probably wouldve looked to take her under his care#but considering that phoenix highly suspects him to be a murderer.. yeah he'd kinda hv to be forced to take care of her#and yknow despite their unconventional father daughter relationship.. theyre very sweet together 🥹#i doubt this game will give it to me but ohhh i sure hope she'd be friends w pearls..#like i know firsthand wright doesnt hv the best track record of keeping young girls safe#but he tries and cares AT LEAST... its sweet is what im saying. but yeah the games made it clear tht wright suprisingly did adopt her then#and in a situation that isnt entirely ridiculous! waow!#🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

listings for old sonic figures are like RARE SONIC ACTION FIGURE 70 DOLLARS and its ear is broken off and its missing a leg and is just overall in the shittiest condition youve ever seen in your life. and its not even that rare
#ive noticed werehog figures specifically are often victims of the missing ears thing#the amount of people ive seen charging like 60+ dollars for a werehog with no ears is ridiculous#i mean i already have a werehog but its the mini figure and ive always kinda wanted a full sized one too#but ive never seen one thats in good condition AND reasonably priced#the sonic and the black knight toys are also big dream figures of mine but again.#can never find any that are in good condition and reasonably priced#its either broken or costs like 500 dollars. and the few exceptions ive seen were quickly taken before i could get to them#sad !#the satbk figures might actually be on the rarer side though i definitely dont see new listings for them as often#and its usually lancelot. or sometimes sonic or excalibur sonic. ive only seen galahad like 2 or 3 times max#i think galahad was kinda a weird choice for tbh like hes not even in the actual story mode#i feel like gawain or percival would ahve made more sense#oh i just saw someone selling a recent super shadow figure for like 130 dollars i think they should explode actually
