As per usual, it’s DP crossover with (probably) DC, although you could probably adjust it for other fandoms
ANYWAYS
A little kid and his mother are trick or treating in another city, perhaps at some kind of event rather than knocking on doors, and the kid is dressed as Phantom. It’s very adorable, with his little ghost-shaped bucket and clearly homemade and already stained costume—listen, white only works if you can just fly over street grime or phase it out of your clothes—and his slightly I’ll fitting wig. The kid is SO happy to be out and about dressed as his favorite, and maybe even showed it off to Phantom back in Amity Park before his family left.
The hero, insert whoever you wish here, is probably in civvies and just enjoying the event. The kid, meanwhile, is so glad when people ask who he is so he can explain, and so- the hero gets to hear ALL ABOUT the local town hero who is probably pretty small time despite the kid’s clearly exaggerated stories. The hero certainly never heard of him, but the kid’s mom confirms that Phantom really was the town hero, despite some mixed reviews of the poor guy.
“Did you manage to show him your costume?” the hero asks.
“Yeah! We went down to the cemetery to leave flowers and I got to show him my costume.”
Wait. Cemetery? Maybe it was part of theme, because Phantom had to be named that for a reason, but… it sounded like…
The kid ignores the suddenly VERY still hero and instead turns to his mom. “Momma, do you think we should bring him candy? He doesn’t get to trick or treat like we do, and I can work super hard to get him a bunch!”
The kid’s mom just smiles. “We could, but maybe we should bring him something homemade. I bet he’d like something more filling, teen boys like him have a hollow leg.”
The kid wrinkles his nose. “Like Vernie with the pizza bagels?”
“Like your cousin, yes. We can make some cinnamon rolls and take them to his memorial, maybe bring some of the apples from your grandpa’s garden…”
The hero is pretty much forgotten as the two-part family wanders off, not quite intentionally forgetting the hero is there so much as the hero somewhat accidentally ended the conversation when they just froze and didn’t ask anything further.
Not that the hero didn’t want to. But they’d learn something very serious.
One—there was a small town hero they’d never heard of. Two—that hero was apparently a teen. Third—most pressingly, the teen hero was both beloved enough to have kids dressing up as him and dead enough to have a grave.
This… might require some phone calls.
#dpxdc#danny phantom crossover#meanwhile Danny. sitting on a giant marble slab that has the most ridiculous gag gifts a ghost could ever ask for#he’s just like Oh Sweet Cinnamon Rolls!#he would try to convince people to bring him nasty burger but while val has MOSTLY gotten over her vindictive anger at Phantom DOES decide#that she’s gonna be petty and add cilantro to everything#because Danny has the cilantro soap gene#jokes on her he’ll still eat it#Danny likes his little memorial in the grave. it helps settle him sometimes. also he’s gotten to know the security guards for the cemetery#they’re fun. a bit morbid. they LIKE his jokes so you can stuff it JAZZ#MEANWHILE the hero. Whomstever they are but like 90% of you are thinking either batfam or Justice league#are having just. a TOUCH of a crisis#now they gotta figure out where the kid and his mom are from without either of them figuring out#dealer’s choice on what the GIW and why Amity Park isn’t on the radar#I’ll add my two cents bc when don’t I but I’m by and large not like… dictating this? anyways#I like making the GIW just a BIT more incompetent or just having some massive flaws as an organizational group#so they keep forgetting to tell people to not LEAVE and to keep quiet#average amity Parker if the GIW tried this anyways: aw that’s cute. anyways-#and if it’s dc I guess you need to figure out how the jl never found out. so#i mean there’s a LOT of heroes and cities in dc#and amity park is just lost to the noise or. bc Fenton bad luck#every time Danny tried to call. the jl had some insane disaster and or their systems were down#he eventually figured he might actually be cursed- jury’s still out on that -and he’s saving lives by just handling it himself#he can handle rhe metaphorical mega thunderstorms if it means he doesn’t accidentally summon a fucking tsunami to hit the planet ya know?#the kid and the mom have no idea that what they said was Odd#they are just so used to it. amity park already was using death puns and had an. interesting history and relation with death#even BEFORE there was a dead kid flying around in his white gogo boots

Having OSDD and playing STP and seeing how other people interpret the voices is crazy. Mostly because I attribute all the Voices as just being smaller parts of the Whole (You, the player) so it’s harder to take their flaws seriously when it’s like. Yeah but I’m not like that and I don’t wanna do that, ur just a thought bro.
Like L + Ratio imagine not being the guy in control of the body today, ANYWAYS-
(Mini ramble undercut!!)
It what makes certain routes like the Spectre so fun when she joins the mess and is like “??? Is it always this loud” because like yeah. Being apart of a system in real life is really just fine tuning the noise and making your own choices, especially since the voices are usually shown at face value and when you dig deeper they all usually want the same thing: To survive.
And when you realize that it’s easier to take agency of the control you Do have as the player and therefore the vessel. They each have their own different ways and thoughts of surviving but ultimately they either just want to survive or they want to survive and end the pain of the cycle they’re forced through.
They’re just thoughts, just voices, brought forth from trauma and trying to escape, give them grace.
All this to say, being apart of a system and playing a game that involves multiple voices is really just like playing a real life simulator and is probably why I have such an easy time playing and understanding the characters in the game
#had to write this one because I couldn’t figure out why it was igging me that some folks interpret the voices +#as fully fledged people and not Voices. they’re merely shattered parts of a whole mirror#their flaws and thoughts are just that. flaws and thoughts. combine them with your own to dilute their extremities.#though this might also have to do with my mindset and play style of ‘no I’ll just succeed.’#literally just think logically because all your voices are feelings based and to make decisions you need both heart and mind#as the player you have to stop trying to input Your feeling or it’s going to conflict and get lost in the mesh of voices#see their feelings- hear them out - rationalize and you’ll win#basic system and personality disorder stuff to deal with the noise and overcrowding#honestly STP is the perfect game for systems 😭😭😭#osdd system#did osdd#osdd#osddid#actually osdd#osdd 1b#slay the princess#stp voices#stp shifting mound#shifty stp#stp analysis#slay the princess princess

Jasmine: (Does a ghostly call around a campfire) “¡Ayyyy miiiissss hijooooos! ¿Dónde están mis hijoooooosss?”
MacCready: (Puts his hands over his ears) “StOoOoOoOp!”
Jasmine: (Has her hands out in front of her as she moves around) “¡Quiero mis hijooooos! ¿Dónde están mis hijos?”
Piper: “I have NO idea what you’re saying, kid- but it’s freaking me out!!!”
Danse: (Is as white as a ghost at his spot by the campfire)
X6: (Says nothing while shuffling on his own two feet, hands in his pockets)
MacCready: “Can’t you just… Tone it down a notch or two?”
Jasmine: (Throws up her hands) “It’s Halloween!!! It’s suppose to freak you out!!! That’s the point!!!”
Piper: “After all the spooky scares we pulled on each other during the prank war- we all are a bit tender!!! So give us a break! Now we have to worry about some vengeance filled Mexican lady coming after us!”
Jasmine: (Rolls her eyes) “¡Cobardes! Y’all are a bunch of sissies! I’ve been hearing this story since I was born and so had most of the kids my age in my neighborhood.”
MacCready: “And I’m pretty sure you kids weren’t living off a gallon of coffee and three hours of sleep all the time!”
Deacon: (Comes out from behind a bush dressed in a white nightgown and a long dark wig) “OoOoOoOoOoOo!!!” (Slowly moves towards the campfire, the smoke machine he set up earlier adding extra dramatic flare)
Jasmine: (Points and gasps) “¡La Llorona!”
MacCready, Danse, and Piper: (Scream bloody murder in sync)
X6: (Stands there stock still as his soul silently leaves his body)
Nick: (Comes running over) “WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?!?”
Everyone: (Dives behind RoboDad for protection)
Jasmine: (Runs up and puts her arms around his waist, staring up at him innocently) “Papi- La Llorona wants to take me away and drown me! So you hafta protect me!”
Nick: (Heavy sigh as he picks the teen girl up) “Not the vengeance ghost lady again- haven’t you told enough of those scary stories?”
Jasmine: (Huffs) “No- I haven’t told everyone about El Cucuy yet.”
Nick: (Glances behind him at the trembling adults) “Maybe hold off the scary stories until after Christmas…”
Deacon: (Waves his hands around some more) “OoOoOoOoOo!”
#So the version of La Llorona I heard growing up was that she wouldn’t take adults. Just children.#Specifically children that weren’t listening to their parents and being wild at night.#Especially by the riverside or the lakeside. So as long as we hid behind an adult- we would be safe.#One of my older cousins would tell us this story at night while we were sitting around the fireplace at a river or lake.#And he would hide his speaker in the woods to play her cries to scare us.#But jokes on him because us kids just got ready to go to war with La Llorona. We were ready to square up to the ghost lady.#At night we would look out the windows of whoever house we were at and try to spot her in the distance.#So our Google searches were consisted of “How to summon La Llorona”.#If her cries sounded like they were close- La Llorona was far away. If her cries sounded far away- La Llorona was actually very close.#Anyways- Jasmine likes to tell these stories around campfires. She has the best ghost stories.#Some maaaaay or may not be true.#I mean- ghosts are REAL in Fallout.#The poor companions have to deal with their little sister being a menace all the time with her ghost stories and antics#Deacon tried to do La Llorona’s cry- but his pronunciation wasn’t that good so he just did typical ghost noises.#fallout#fallout 4#fo4#nick valentine#fallout oc#fallout original character#fallout 4 companions#maccready#robert joseph maccready#piper wright#x6 88#fallout x6 88#paladin danse#danse#danse fallout 4

I've never had noise canceling headphones before and I feel like I'm having a religious experience. I feel like a blinkered horse. Like this is WHY they were blinkered. Apparently the hypervigilance is stored in the ears for me and this not only takes that WAY down to a level I never realized was possible, it also clears the cache of that part of my brain and I can THINK.
What the fuck. Where have these BEEN. I feel like I purchased a (frankly cheaply made) superpower.
#The reason is I once had some knockoff ipod airs that said yet we're noise canceling#Dad gave them to me when he realized they weren't apple#And I didn't hear much of a difference so I was like huh. Okay. Don't need to look into that any further.#I tried them out on the train and was like :/ they just sound like the in-ear headphones I replaced#And those were cheaper#Anyway I wonder if the noise canceling is already on or if I push the button to - OH MY GOD THE TRAIN IS SO LOUD WHAT THE FUCK#So it turns out that over ear headphones that sound like in ear headphones are pretty fucking cool actually#Because they sound like the in ear sound I was always trying to get#Wiggling the damn earpiece further in trying to muffle more and hear more clearly#And these can just. Do that.#Mundane adventures

Had a conversation about being perceived as South Asian with my cousin and her kids and I'm still rotating it around in my head because like. Did everyone suddenly forget that I am also half white. Like did you forget that I do not have two South Asian parents
#really strange because i feel like i spent my whole entire childhood with my dad's family feeling a little out of place#and them all also thinking i was a little out of place because culturally i am not really indian. i wasn't raised that way#but apparently they did not get this feeling which is wild and also kind of explains some things that have happened recently#having a lot of thoughts recently about being mixed race white/asian#read an article which i don't know how to feel about and just generally feeling kind of alienated from everyone's perception of it#maybe it's because zero people identify me as wasp but like that was also a significant part of how i was raised#and i want people to stop erasing it. yeah whiteness is complicated and often uncomfy#but i don't think me being brown is a get-out-of-jail free card#anyways. i think wrt that article a lot of what it was talking about was people who don't think this way#maybe this is just me maybe all of this is horrifically wrong#but like idk i think the reason why a lot of writing on being mixed race doesn't resonate is bc people don't think this way#it's always about the 'difference' of having a non-white parent or the conflict with having a white parent#whiteness was not a default in my house stop projecting stuff onto me#perce rambles#not sure this post makes any sense. there's just a lot of feelings bottled up inside of me that i'm trying to process sorry#it was a really weird conversation and a really weird article and i need to [incomprehensible noises]

Little boy in a big field
#Henry#2025#so frustrating though#we had a really nice walk right up until the end when someone cornered us with their two very reactive dogs#I get it- Henry is reactive- and I know it’s hard to manage them especially if you run into another dog unexpectedly#but also have some respect for other people! they just kept coming at us and did nothing while their two went off barking and lunging#we had to dive off the path#’be careful of snakes if you go off the path!’ so helpful person. maybe if you didn’t charge us with your reactive dogs I wouldn’t have to#anyway Henry did very good and didn’t make a noise#he got treats rained on him as the ‘we have no possible way of getting out of threshhold distance’#but just frustrating that we had to do that. also frustrating that the person kept stopping to try talk to us#I don’t care if you think ‘oh they just make a lot of noise they’re not dangerous’ they are distressing for me and my dog#anyway we had a good walk overall and he recovered well from that#good job lil bud

ID: A colorful, stylized illustrated view of Scope City - a wide-spanning fictional city which expands out into the surrounding desert. The buildings towards the center are tall and spike-like, with one spire in the center featuring a glass eye at the top towering over the rest. End ID.
a bit of an update to an older concept drawing I had of Scope City, the location that the majority of Visible Spectrum takes place in!
#froxposting#froxart#visible spectrum#described#illustration#environment design#so glad to have a nicer and Bigger version of this lmfao#i had to make sure it was um. very large. as it had to be Printed very large.#ended up trying some new brushes for this#Though i really out to figure out how to uhhh. Streamline drawing these LMFAO i should probably make some custom brushes myself#especially for the “flat” outer ring of buildings and noise#i do them with the polyline lasso tool but#i could probably just. make a brush. draw it in a circle. and squish the circle into perspective.#But we work harder Not smarter. ok#also YAYYY featuring the slightly updated city center since it had a slight (literal) shift in its look. the ring of buildings around the#center tower is taller on one side to more closely mimic some aspects of sundials

Recent-ish things ~
#photo diary#1 - love this image of Noodle.. such a weird angle that makes his head look entirely round like a puff ball or something#2 - a more recent (still from months ago) collection of my pressed flowers and 4 leaf clovers I found.#3. Being one of the only people in 2024 still going 'hee heee I've just bought a new wii game!' but.. I have. >:3#It's kind of like Wii Sports Resort but is like.. open world? so your character can actually walk around and stuff. REALLY makes me#wish I had the type of set up where I could record video from my wii and stuff like some gaming youtubers have. I think it'd be a really#fun game to play on video and to DOCUMENT it!!! I keep wishing I could screenshot my little guy walking around but I caaant..#I've literally just been taking out my phyiscal camera and photographing the screen which always looks bad.. augh..#4. Something in the froxen food aisle called 'Wellington Bites' a play on beef wellington. suprisingly good actually. but I guess anything#with like beef and mushrooms usually is. But it seems like.. oddly decent for frozen food stuff.#5 - boye looking Round again.. 6 - updated score in the wii fit minigame again. This time less than 4 seconds#for each round? which may be a record for me? 7 & 8 - fat bird in the snow. fatt bird in the SNOW!! Hoping that climate change and H5N1#don't eventually remove all trace of birds and winter weather from my life in the future... -_-#9 - ..ough... a few paltry writings.. Except for the one day of 4000 words. But for the most part I have been making soo litte progress#because of the holidays and drs appointments and such a rush of all these other mind distracting things.. Or if I'm not doing something the#I'm feeling tired from having PREVIOUSLY done something so I waste the whole day being sleepy and headachey... GRR...#the funny thing is that like many many years ago I wrote a note on my wall saying 'FOCUS! write 2hr a day or more or youre going to finish#your game in 2025!!!' - which back in 2018 when I wrote it was like unimaginably far into the future but now... ahem.. hem... I guess that#is quite literally the case LOL. To my credit I did parctically abandon it entirely since late 2019 and JUST now picked up really#trying to focus on it in mid 2024 but still... My '''ridiculous'' projection being actually likely the correct one..#10 - I just thoughtit would be silly to put a bunch of keychain things on the wii remote. imagine playing this way. getting constantly#jabbed in the hand by plastic bits. and the jingling clinking noise it would be always making lol#11 - sky.. huzzah for the sky as always. Clouds my beloved#Gr.. I just really want to wriiite. My new years hopes are to finish my game and to get stuff set up to start selling sculptures again.#AND then maybe do more game videos lol... I miss playing games. I dont think I've posted on that youtube for like 5 months#I've just had so much appointments and Things and Stuff and focusing so much on other projects. But that is the thing that really#feels relaxing and fun for me. so like.. 1. finish game 2. sell sculpture/make sculpture 3. play games 4. find more friends#and social connection and networking or whatever the hell people have to do to be successful 5. do more costume/outfits.#<( saying this all on a day where I did none of those things LOL... I got erm.. maybe 400 words done today.. >:'3c )#6 is MOVE away from the evil west coast (hot.. fires in summer. etc) but like. not happening unless I suddenly become a millionaire so. -_-

i think growing up is just life repeatedly sucker punching you and saying bitch you thought things were gonna better lmao no you're so naive and stupid for having hope in 20 years the world will be flaming bag of garbage and no matter how hard you work you'll get eliminated at some point
#and then you just have to get up and keep living anyway because what else is there to do?#but man my heart keeps feeling heavier with every blow#2024 has literally been the worst year ever god personally too#like everytime i think it can't possibly get worse than this it does#i remember literally 9th jan i had such a horrible breakdown in an auto because the first friend i ever made#after school was leaving my work and therefore my life#9 days into the year. seriously. and i was so happy on 8th because it was my birthday#i don't know im trying hard to think okay this doesn't even affect me it's fine im privileged enough that even my own countrys politics#barely affects me#but just. india is already so behind in everything. if developed nations are doing shit like this then well#it will never get better right like who do we even strive to be#i want to get more into indian politics but my god. it's so horrifying and depressing all the time#like i remember resolving to follow politics closely few years ago and the first news#i read was about some minister talking about how girls skirts lengths IN SCHOOL is the reason boys do sa and boys will be boys etc etc#i know i could just follow business news stuff like that god knows it'll help in my field but it just. doesn't resonate with me doesn't#make me feel anything at all. like i so desperately want to care about ooh stock markets and how to grow your money etc etc#but when i think about being rich enough to invest idle money all i can think is sitting in my own home peacefully#drinking a glass of cold coffee and just being able to breathe freely because me and my sister used to joke in childhood#when dad went thru a coffee v bad for health phase and he wouldn't let us drink it so we would drink it very sneakily#at night when he was asleep or went out for an hour and make absolutely no noise while mixing the sugar. we said that we know#we'll* know we have achieved true freedom and happiness in life when we can peacefully drink cold coffee in the hall and not secretly#in the dead of night in our room#i don't even know what im talking about and my period is late again and nothing is working and my lazer focus#that i had built in the past few weeks is gone because suddenly im like what is the point????#i just don't understand how the fuck humans can fight over stupid fucking things like who is kissing who and who is doing what with their#body instead of focusing on collective issues like our planet is dying so fucking fast and every summer is getting impossibler to survive#i hate that the united states control the UN fuck this world fr man i hate being born in such horrible helpless times#like call me a kid or dumb or whatever but i cannot understand how MILLIONS of people do not#have sympathy for ppl around them and who don't care about the planet at all like how????? how did you grow up????#not trying to boast but this is so natural to me!!! didn't you make save water save earth posters in school!!! didn't anyone

Was rewatching Double and. I think I finally pinpointed where John and Mikoto switch places!
You can see that the car that Mikoto is in turns to darkness like he just went into a tunnel. And then we have that transition of a pinpoint of light fading- to a light coming up and flooding the screen. It then immediately Cuts to seeing "Mikoto" running away from something. This time he's surrounded by light. Following the implications of that light transition
That means the running sequence is John trying to get to Mikoto in time and uh. Mikoto getting sick of everything and deciding to take Swift Action. Which may lead to the glitched line in the second trial voice trailer-
AAAHHHHHHHHHH!! DESTROY EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING! EVERYTHING!!
Incidentally, that would also lead to the answer of another thing I was questioning. "What's the other train car that's in use?" I believe that would make the car that Mikoto is in 9 and the car that John is in 10
#Milgram#Mikoto Kayano#thoughts#I've been trying to figure out where this switch occurred since Double dropped#I also have been having trouble doing that cause for some reason listening to Double makes my brain turn into white noise on a crt#Which is. Frustrating. Especially since by all rights I should like this song to the point of listening to it constantly#The video was meant to be a gif Tumblr just wouldn't allow it orz#idk if I've put this in a comprehensible way but I have tried my best orz

and then no one said anything about the fact that if i watched ONE MORE episode tenax pulls a "i'm not angry i'm just disappointed i'm hurt" about scorpus signing with the white faction.
#do you see the vision here <- guy who has a watch rate of one episode per month#oh the implications of scorpus not being there for tenax in his time of need... the death of the child who is not but is symbolically their#is that a separate fic completely yes but it is ALSO in some ways a divorce fic. tenax like i needed you but scorpus also needing him#OH MY GOD THEY LITERALLY DO SAY FELIX WAS HIM and i can do SO much with the concept of a “stray”. oh please. please strays instead of rats#one knife to the ribs one fixed race one apartment board THAT'S A STORYLINE BABY RISE OR DIE THE ROMAN WAYYYYYY#i do see your calla/tenax storylines i do. i could be swayed but we are not here for that currently this is the same as the chariot racing#like i KNOW what i said about the gold faction representing everything that scares scorpus a dream he never thought they'd reach#and then to have it ripped away now he no longer even has the dream untarnished i do understand. which is why the “i'm disappointed”#kills me even MORE because it shows he gets it. like on some level he does understand why scorpus had to but it's his pride that's wounde#so to continue from what i WAS saying with:#sets the bar so low because how else would tenax love him (as if tenax would not do the same thing if he lost) and they have even MORE#questionable celebratory reward sex. yes i assigned scorpus a degradation/praise kink the world works in wondrous ways don't question it#scorpus/tenax#those about to die#tenax making sure to care for the kids is what's killing me too because i REALLY want to draw a parallel with scorpus making sure he takes#care of the prostitutes. yes he's a notorious hedonist yes he has a lot of sex but he always pays well doesn't he. over-well. he pays too#much and ends up in debt he pays enough to buy girls freedom. so that they only have to if they want to. it gets him a reputation sure AND#it gets whole houses of girls under his (and therefore tenax's) protection. you can't bruise her up; that's scorpus' favorite girl.#she can charge more for being favored. he can pay for massive parties where no one else is invited and if he falls asleep midway drunk#off his ass after a race the girls would never say. they still get paid. if tenax comes to watch and give instructions they'd never say.#if tenax tells them all to leave and it's just him and scorpus in the golden room and all the girls see before they shut the door#and latch it behind them is scorpus on his knees in the soft plush cushions with tenax offering him grapes one by one from his fingertips#like a favored concubine instead of the champion whose laurels are tilted on his head they won't say a word. not even when the noise#inside the room continues for long after the hour runs out the girls still stand watch until it's quiet and then crawl back in around where#scorpus is alone in the big wrecked bed with a smear of blood or wine on his mouth who could say. certainly they wouldn't.#no matter what they still get paid. whether they did the work to wreck him or not.#ANYWAY#they take care of the selves they couldn't protect is what i'm trying to say. for tenax it's the child he was/scorpus it's the body he sold#only he hasn't stopped having to sell it. & i guess as we're learning with the extortion tenax is still a child running from a burning hous

Horror game where mouse sensitivity/camera sensitivity goes up during moments of panic or anxiety and the player has to be careful with how aggressively they look around because they could get so disoriented from the movement that it gets them killed
#like they can change baseline sensitivity and itll go up from the baseline#meaning lower sensitivity players will have lower high sensitivity movement#itd cap off at a certain point because its gotta be playable SOMEHOW#but it simulates that feeling in moments of crisis where your focus and eyes are darting around unable to properly take everything in#in a way a game with this mechanic could teach people how to be mindful during these moments and control their anxiety#but also if we ever got into making games we think figuring out how to plan around this would be fun#you cant just drop this mechanic into ANY horror game that would be frustrating at best and impossible at worst#a game with this mechanic would need to balance triggering those moments of panic in both the game and player#and being reasonable about whatever is going after the player#so its not some kind of impossible challenge where every player dies over and over trying to get past every intense scene#its better to seamlessly blend it with the game instead of making the mechanic itself the challenge that people are trying to get past#we wonder when the mechanic would be best introduced#during a moment where the player can die and theyre freaking out wondering what the fuck is happening?#or during a moment where they cant die so it introduces the idea of it to the player and they can actually realise whats happening?#probably the latter - its just a better way to introduce frustrating mechanics in horror games we think#plus if we DID make a horror game we'd lean more towards suspense - less scary chases down hallways and more 'what the fuck was that noise'#we like psychological horror yknow? keeping the viewer unnerved outside of the big scary monster scenes or whatever#but eh we dont even know the first thing about game development and we're not really invested in learning so this is just an idea#we've always been more 'ideas' people than anything. we love thinking up ways to twist concepts#creating them doesnt come as naturally to us (yes we're writers and artists - ask us our wip to finished project ratio lol)
