scavĀ·engĀ·er | TWDG Retelling | 1
Tumblr media
"But we don't eat monsters." "Yeah, but if we could, we probably would..."
At least, that's what Clementine tells him. Because AJ doesn't need to know how warm the fresh ones are on the tongue, nor how decayed flesh claws on the way down.
[The times she scavenged, the times her secret was caught,Ā and the one bite that started it all.]
ā€” ā€” ā€”
Basically I took my creative liberties and ran with them. Head-first. Intoā€¦whatever this is. (Based off of the most out of pocket dialogue prompt, which this post is about.) I will blast through all the seasons, so. A full retelling! :D With cannibalism! And gore! And Clementine is not a-okay!! >:D
However, I did decide that I will have to break it apart for pacing, and stuff. But I will post the story in-full as well if people want to read it that way when I'm 100% done. This is the first part ofā€¦I dunno yet. But each part will effectively go through each season, or however I think to do it.
Now this is mature, and I did tag it dead dove. Because. Cannibalism, technically. And like. Violence. And stuff. But genuinely though, it is written to be unhinged. Lol.
Anyway. Hope you enjoy!

THE BITE
she did not ask for this. it hurts.
[2,721] [Apr.25.2024] ā€” ā€” ā€”
"The first thing that changes, sweetie, is the smell of them."
.
"It will only take a couple hours. They'll all ā€¦ start smelling sweet, more like a citrus."
.
Clementine whimpers. She holds her hand tightly around her arm, up towards her shoulder where he wrangled the dress. Her throat's raw. She's swirling over the conversations Lee had with her, after her hair was grabbed, and he had to explain why the St. John brother horrified her the way he did. The other one. With shadows around his eyes, and a smile that always twitched around her.
Amongst that, Lee admitted why he killed him the way he didā€”pitchfork at hand.
He horrified him too.
.
She decides though, as she scrambles away from this man, that it isn't the same.
The man is good with his words, for one, and there's aā€¦sincerity to him. A genuine one, but there's something to his face that Clementine never could've seen through the radio.
He's tall. Gangly.
And in his face, there's something not quite right. It's not the bloodā€”her bloodā€”he wipes from his mouth by a gentle hand. It lies beneath that.
.
Insanity.
.
"It hurts, I know. That's what my daughter said too. And that's what I felt when Tess bit me."
.
This is insanity.
It doesn't matter how well he preens it, this is insanity, and he justā€¦ He justā€”
He.Ā Bit.Ā Clementine.
Didn't look happy about it, and he still doesn't. But he just. He bit her, and hard, like he meant it anyway. He continues look at her like he means it, right with all the ramblings about his family, and how nice they are, and how she'd fit right in. At least, after he gets a proper brush for her. Her hair's quite a bit different from his daughter's.
. "I don't really understand what it is either, or what does it. "I just knowā€¦, biting you, you can be a part of my family this way."
.
"You've already met my wifeā€¦ You can join my daughter in the backseat. You just have to keep quiet, and she won't do anything to you."
.
She doesn't really listen to what he says. There's too much of the day's horror racing through her body.
It's theĀ bafflement,Ā however, that strikes her mute.
Because this manĀ bit her,Ā and it isn't something Clementine can just wrest from herself. It spins and twirls until she feels an unease build, and she's about to vomit, her heart's thrashing beneath her palmā€¦
She can't. She's barely eaten enough to force the urge.
.
It's dark in the bathroom. He's tall.Ā Looming over her.Ā 
And.
And Clementine's been bit. He stares at her as though it means the same as every other bite, yet it doesn't, because he's notĀ dead.Ā 
.
She knows how long his teeth are.
They sank far too deep for any genuine, sincere man in his right mind.
.
"She won't do anything."
.
Clementine hides in the bathtub for the longest while. Ducks right into it, the moment he shuts the door, and she hears him string the handle, then tie it to the closet across from her.
Every now and then, she dozes. Not because she wants to. She'sĀ desperateĀ to stay awake. Yet Clementine is small, and she's tired, and there's no fighting this. It's an exhaustion she never could have fathomed. There's strange nightmares she can't quite place, and they rattle her back where her eyes fly open, the ceramic's cold, she doesn't want to sleep. There is nothing to see in them, those nightmares. Just a desolation, and a twisted ache down her throat. She smells gore in them. Can almost feel the blood and bone bathe down her skin, then crack in her hands.
The meatā€¦ There's meat.
In her mouth.
And she chews. And Clementine swallows.
.
She doesn't understand.
.
There is one nightmare she sees. It knocks her head into the ceramic tub by the time she wakes again.
.
A farm. Dairy. Except there's only slaughter. There's butcher across tile. The barn's locker rots.
Clementine never ate there. Never the meat. Not a bite.
Lee saved her back then. He did.
.
Lee saved her. He'll save her.
Again, and again.
.
He begins to be what she stirs to.
Her sweat's cold. The world blurs when the tears come.
Before Clementine is lost to nightmare for another time.
.
Then...
She snaps upright. Finds herself clambering from the bathtub and to the door. Her head is a smog, but sheā€¦ Clementine can hear them both. Her voice rattles from her. She doesn't quite hear what she saysā€” All she knows is Lee. At least, she thinks. Hopes so.
.
A citrus bleeds from the door, and to her nose.
.
It's likely the man's. HeĀ isĀ bit, and his eyes are not quite asā€¦human as he tells himself.
He's justā€¦not dead, exactly.
Not truly alive either. His gaunt complexion tells her so, and the weary treble in his voice. Or he's always just been like that. Sickly looking, if not just plain unnerving.
Clementine can't really tell. It's hard to piece together a person like him, amidst the self-hatred. A loathing, if anything.
Because she fell for it. Fell for his words, the promise for her family. Even thoughā€¦, Clementine knew, in the back of her mind, it's too good to be true. A random voice on the radio, how could he have known her and her parents? And Savannah? And Lee, and Macon, and everything between?
.
Simply putā€¦
That random voice knows,Ā because she told him herself.
Told him everything.
.
The fight for the world's clarity stands no better with her at the door. She sags against the wall. Her arm pangs. The bathroom isā€¦cold, beneath her feet.
Frigid, even, the more the stupid girl's remorse blisters her.
This is what desperation has brought. It opened its mouth for her. His long teeth. And she stared. Looked at this gifted horse in the mouth; discovered a reason to run.
.
"Yeah. I'm not some cannibal, Lee."
.
Leeā€¦ So he has come to save her.
She knew he would. Clementine just knew he would.
It's enough to spark urgency. She stands.
.
"Some killer out in the woods. Some v-villainā€¦"
.
That man is a liar, though. Lee is here, but the man is a liar.
Unlessā€¦, what he's done really wasn't murder, nor a kidnapping.
.
"I'm just a ā€¦ dad."
.
Perhaps. Maybe that is right.
.
Still however. Clementine decides then and there to creep from the bathroom.
She makes sure to keep her sleeve down, and her dress over her shoulder. Because she isn't bitten. Not really.
.
The same way that man didn't murder.
.
"Have you ever hurt somebody you care about?" "My wife."
.
Clementine tries the handle first. It twists, yet the string holds it firm.
She almost weeps. Or she does, and her head is too numb to know.
The bathroom is all the more darker, and her exhaustion grows all the more heavy.
.
"I hurt her a long time ago. "In a lot of waysā€¦"
.
Lee soundsā€¦ He sounds weaker than he did last night.
Exhaustion slinks from his mouth. It worms the same in her earsā€”the same as her own. There's a wavering, and then a husk. Like there's not enough life to draw from. And it says somethingā€”says a lot, actuallyā€”how muchĀ strongerĀ the man with his treble is in his words. He's steady. He carries an unruly intention.
And Leeā€¦, he sounds tired. And bleak. Mostly bleak. Doesn't talk much.
Clementine doesn't want to believe the strained breaths cleaving the room is him.
.
"I hurt her so bad."
.
"I hurt her so bad."
.
The man's wife has her head in his bowling bag.
She rolls in it. Smudges the tearstreaks left behind.
.
"I hurt her so bad."
.
Clementine flares the last of her strength. She swallows down the last of the dairy farm as it twitches for another nightmare.
She clasps the handle. Twists it, and tests the string. She doesn't want to get caught. Noise is her bane, and she knows the man has an ear for her.
.
"Do I look like a monster to you?"
.
She has to bide her time. It's daunting.
However, Clementine listens for the moment where he's engrossed, and the man is sunk back into his writhing sanity. He likes to ramble. Did it a lot that day, and he even did it routinely on the radio. On and on and on about his wife, and his kids.
Family.
It's always family with him. Family, and being a father, a husband, and having his nice daughter.
.
"She's already a part of my family nowā€¦ "There's no reason for you to have come, Lee."
.
"I smell it on you. You're not going to last."
.
There he goes again.
Clementine pulls the door just enough for the string to strain, and for her to untangle its knot. It snaps back for the open closet.
The man talks to his wife again. He stares into his bowling bag, and she knows the wife's head to roll again.
She meets Lee by his eyes. He'sā€¦ He's missing an arm, and he looks ghastly. Drained too. Yet, he has enough strength to nod for the side-dresser, and when her eyes follow, there glints a cleaver.
.
"Hey, honey. I think this is all going to work out."
.
It's tight in her hand.
The dairy farm ravages to the blood she ignores down its blade. Clementine hears the groaning instead. The wife. Can almost make out the nonsense the man pulls a few words from.
.
"I'm glad too. "I wish you wouldn't have had to get this bad, but it's all over hon. Isn't it?"
.
"I hate seeing you like this. I just miss your smile, honey."
.
Her strides to him are careful. Clementine keeps herself far from his eye, his peripheral. Lee tenses, though in his face, there's a quiet resolution. His eyes dart between the man, then her.
Clementine raises the cleaver. Moonlight darts along the wall when she does. Her hands tremble; the moonlight does too. She can't help it.
.
"I miss you so much, Tess. You're gonna like Clementine a lot, though. She's not Lizzy, but she's sweet. "She wouldn't hurt a fly."
.
Clementine sinks the cleaver deep. Thinks of it as a bite for a bite.
.
The man lunges away from her, and he reaches for the blade plunged into his shoulder.
Lee hurls his weight across the table, and knocks into the man. The fight is blurring. Clementine strafes, feels her heart soar when Lee buckles him into the wall.
Before he curls. The fight is too much for him. The man is strong in his intentions.
His hands are around Lee's neck. The gun is heavy in her hands. She trembles again. Aims. The world is whirling, except for Lee, and for the man, and the bullet she punctures through his crown.
.
Sheā€”
Clementine just shot him.
Just shot the man.
He's dead.
.
Bafflement finds her again. Locks her there, in place. Trembling. Air doesn't come easy. Her heart does well to scald her, and it's restless.
It names itselfĀ shock,Ā however. She's not inclined to argue.
There's a look in Lee's eyes. Gratitude, but the shock as well. It rattles them both.
.
She cries. He consoles. But air doesn't come easy, nor do the words to her mind.
When he dawns her back her Dad's hat, howeverā€¦ The world doesn't cage her anymore.
It's not as cold.
It's still a desolate shade of moonlight.
.
A walker stands at the door. The citrus is pungent in the room. There were traces before.
With the dead looming in the doorway, however, it swamps her now.
And the gore Lee lathers down her clothes makes it worse. A thousand times worse. Because the citrus is likeā€¦ It's like the oranges she plucked from at a fieldtrip's orchard. It's sweet. She can't tell if she's about to vomit or not. She sweats. It's cold again. Lee mistakes both for terror. Or, it's that she's the one mistaken, and this isn't anything beyond a break in sanity.
.
Her parents are dead.
They have been.
.
She sees them, when Lee guides her into the dead's orchard.
.
"The first thing that changes, sweetie, is the smell of them."
.
"The second thingā€¦"
.
The second thingā€¦ There's a second thing. It rattles somewhere. She can only see the red jacket he held for her. The same she refused before.
The same thatā€¦ The same that Leeā€”
Lee's falling.
.
His voice trails after him. He stumbles too, the more she whimpers and pulls at his shoulder. He isn't limp. He is not awake.
But he does move. Her arm throbs, Clementine trips over herself, and Lee is staggering after her. With a haze in his eyes. He shoulders into anything and everything.
The dead don't mind. Not really.
.
They don't mind him. Nor her.
.
Clementine's left to pull him into a store. She finds a string. Reaches for it.
The gate it guides slams to the floor once gravity has its say.
They are alone, her and Lee. Secure. There is no leavingā€¦ Which frightens him. More than the St. John brother ever did.
.
Clementine knows he's bit before he says it.
.
It's the sweet citrus.
The same that washes off the walkers, it leaks from Lee in steady waves.
.
It just breaks her heart, knowing thatā€¦ That he really is a-about toā€” To die.
.
There's no time to tell him about her bite. She wouldn't have had the heart to regardless, nor the mind.
So she clings to his words. Nods to Lee, when he tells her to keep moving.
.
Lee doesn't have to tell her what to do next. Clementine knows.
So when he runs out of energy, and time, and mindā€¦
She just knows.
.
"I'll miss you."
.
The gun is the heaviest when she raises it to his head.
. . .
SOMETHING WAS VERY WRONG
. . .
There is no fever. She doesn't understand, because it isĀ not a fever,Ā it's this brisk chill across her body, beneath the morning sun.
Maybe it's from lingering beside Lee's body for longer than she should have. Or, it's from stalking in the shadows where the walkers couldn't quite reach.
Yet, no. Those were the quiet lies she told herself, before reality wormed its way the moment she found them. Or, when they found herā€”none of them can decide. The more they hug her, the more Omid squeezes her shoulder and Christa holds her from her from the weary ground, the more Clementine realizes this for what it is:
The bite.
And it's rough against cotton. Cold too, like the deep inhale before something really,Ā reallyĀ bad happens, and now her body teems of it, and her head swims to every sharp clap of gunfire. Her eyes too, because the world warbles whenever Clementine passes wherever the sun is strongest.
This is the same cold which agonized her body in the Marsh House. In the bath, then in the roomā€”with Lee's rattled breaths, and the walker splayed beside them both. It's the cold she fought against. Fell asleep to. Would awake to.
It feels like her body has been disturbed. As thoughā€¦she herself, to her core, hasn't grasped what hit her.
Except that it has a name, and its name is dread.
.
It takes months for the hunger to set in.

ā€” ā€” ā€”
As much as I enjoy writing stories for the sake of catharsis, I do enjoy being unhinged and writing this kind of thing too. Cuz it can be fun. Once you get past the concerning things. Again, I am breaking it up for pacing's sake, so shorter chapters. My little writer gut tells me shorter chapters good, actually. For this. So the TBC will have a link to the next post once I'm done.
Hope you enjoyed so far! :)

because sometimes there are invisible tests and invisible rules and you're just supposed to ... know the rule. someone you thought of as a friend asks you for book recommendations, so you give her a list of like 30 books, each with a brief blurb and why you like it. later, you find out she screenshotted the list and send it out to a group chat with the note: what an absolute freak can you believe this. you saw the responses: emojis where people are rolling over laughing. too much and obsessive and actually kind of creepy in the comments. you thought you'd been doing the right thing. she'd asked, right? an invisible rule: this is what happens when you get too excited.
you aren't supposed to laugh at your own jokes, so you don't, but then you're too serious. you're not supposed to be too loud, but then people say you're too quiet. you aren't supposed to get passionate about things, but then you're shy, boring. you aren't supposed to talk too much, but then people are mad when you're not good at replying.
you fold yourself into a prettier paper crane. since you never know what is "selfish" and what is "charity," you give yourself over, fully. you'd rather be empty and over-generous - you'd rather eat your own boundaries than have even one person believe that you're mean. since you don't know what the thing is that will make them hate you, you simply scrub yourself clean of any form of roughness. if you are perfect and smiling and funny, they can love you. if you are always there for them and never admit what's happening and never mention your past and never make them uncomfortable - you can make up for it. you can earn it.
don't fuck up. they're all testing you, always. they're tolerating you. whatever secret club happened, over a summer somewhere - during some activity you didn't get to attend - everyone else just... figured it out. like they got some kind of award or examination that allowed them to know how-to-be-normal. how to fit. and for the rest of your life, you've been playing catch-up. you've been trying to prove that - haha! you get it! that the joke they're telling, the people they are, the manual they got- yeah, you've totally read it.
if you can just divide yourself in two - the lovable one, and the one that is you - you can do this. you can walk the line. they can laugh and accept you. if you are always-balanced, never burdensome, a delight to have in class, champagne and glittering and never gawky or florescent or god-forbid cringe: you can get away with it.
you stare at your therapist, whom you can make jokes with, and who laughs at your jokes, because you are so fucking good at people-pleasing. you smile at her, and she asks you how you're doing, and you automatically say i'm good, thanks, how are you? while the answer swims somewhere in your little lizard brain:
how long have you been doing this now? mastering the art of your body and mind like you're piloting a puppet. has it worked? what do you mean that all you feel is... just exhausted. pick yourself up, the tightrope has no net. after all, you're cheating, somehow, but nobody seems to know you actually flunked the test. it's working!
aren't you happy yet?

Headcanon that Shen Yuan was hotter than Shen Qingqiu, actually.
Like yeah SQQ being a cultivator gave him a boost to enough attributes + being in a stallion novel where everyone is either unrealistic hot or dog's butt ugly got the Shen Qingqiu body extra points, and he wasn't bad looking to begin with. Plus not being ill is vastly more important to the new Shen Qingqiu than those extra hotness points (Without a Cure notwithstanding). But part of the reason why he's kind of like, meh, at least I'm not hideous or anything, is because Shen Yuan's original body was a knock out.
I also like him as chronically ill, and, as many people know, beauty standards and sustained suffering are not as incompatible as they should be. Shen Yuan was conventionally attractive in part because conventional beauty standards seem to want everyone slowly dying all the time. But even setting that aside, the man had flawless bone structure, an appealing figure, captivating eyes, and the kind of voice that stopped people in their tracks.
All of which was a contributing factor to his antisocial lifestyle, actually. Despite the fact that Shen Yuan does enjoy company and requires a certain baseline of social enrichment for his enclosure, his internalized homophobia and closeting did not play well with overtures from interested parties (regardless of gender). The only way to minimize the odds of him being asked out on dates was to essentially become a shut-in, especially since even Shen Yuan can only make so many excuses before he himself starts to notice that he's going to a lot of effort to avoid specifically that avenue of socialization. Far better to just remove himself from any risk of it, and then vocally lament that oh no he's just too much of a nerd to get anywhere with women!
Anyway this largely doesn't matter much outside of sheer comedy potential for any situation where SY gets his old body/life back. Like imagine a reveal scenario where the System is going to transport them back to their old lives.
Shang Qinghua: well bro I guess this is gonna be the ultimate test of love, right?
Shen Yuan: what do you mean?
Shang Qinghua: our husbands are gonna see what we looked like back before we were glorious cultivators! they're going to have to track us down in our mundane, kinda shitty pre-transmigration lives! it's gonna be at least a little embarrassing, right?
Shen Yuan: *gets his old body back*
Shang Qinghua, normal human with average looks: ...
Shen Yuan, exemplary 11/10: ?
Shang Qinghua: what. the fuck?? bro what the fuck why are you hot???
Shen Yuan: don't make it weird
Shang Qinghua: make it weird??? why were you sitting at home reading my shitty novel when you could have been out there building your own harem???
Shen Yuan: stop exaggerating
Shang Qinghua: oh my god you've always been like this. this is it, isn't it? it wasn't even brain damage from the transmigration or something--
Shen Yuan: hey
Shang Qinghua: --you've just always been completely unaware, haven't you? every time I wrote a beautiful woman who didn't know her own appeal you'd be jumping down my throat--
Shen Yuan: because that's a stupid trope--!
Shang Qinghua: --JUMPING DOWN MY THROAT EXACTLY LIKE THAT but this whole time THIS WHOLE TIME it wasn't even a glow-up issue, you've just been that, personified, yourself--
Shen Yuan: look I know I'm not ugly but I'm not I'm hardly that good-looking
Shang Qinghua: YOU ARE NEVER ALLOWED TO CRITICIZE THAT TROPE AGAIN! oh my god. how many broken hearts did you leave behind when you died?!
Shen Yuan: none, I wasn't even seeing anyone--
Shang Qinghua: yeah full offense but I am nottt taking your word for that. I bet you had a harem you didn't know about in this lifetime too. I bet you had a fan club, like an anime prince
Shen Yuan: *mumbling*
Shang Qinghua: what was that?
Shen Yuan: I said... only in high school...
Shang Qinghua: oh my god
Shen Yuan: it wasn't a big deal!
Shang Qinghua: *frantically trying to see if he can find any trace of it on the internet now*

go my hyucker (human gucker)
ssso my good friend pastell @startagainaprologue mentioned it was struggling with making a human design for the guide and i rubbed my hands together evilly and got to work. aaaaa this was super fun to work on!!!!! thankyou again for letting me draw this graaaa. as always my deranged character design ramblings are below the cut šŸ‘
CHARACTER DESIGN BLAST
most of guideā€™s colors are slightly shifted to be closer to red and moreā€¦ desaturated? my default bonnie colors clashed with the palette i usually use for guide so they got changed slightly. i did add the blue on the sash as a reference to my nille design however! and i tend to use cooler colors to represent countries outside of vaugarde, so you could interpret it as a link to the island. if you so desire :3
speaking of the sash, just about everything theyā€™re wearing here is based on another character!! in this case, itā€™s meant to resemble nilleā€™s waist sash! but with a different pattern. something something only having an imitation of what it lost. the stars are meant to represent siffrin and loop, and also just the universe in general. fun stuff!
i mostly just made their shirt longer for the sake of looking Different from normal bonnie? but combined with the sash it has the fun bonus of having a silhouette similar to siffrinā€™s cloak. not full intentional but hey! iā€™ll take it!
the gems on its tail are there to represent odile!! as well as referencing the ka buan tradition of compressing ashes into diamonds. you can draw your own conclusions there! and they go ding ding when it walks :3
the hat/halo isss probably self explanatory? itā€™s a way to fit guideā€™s Spiky Head into the design. the halo was added pafter pastell drew buns version of the design auau. i like both! so their hat can be whatever shape you please.
okay! nno more talking about clothes i promise. similar to my ghostlight loop design, i gave it spikier hair!! i have to give sponsors spiky hair to resemble their Spiky Heads. itā€™s the law. their hair was supposed to be shorter but. iā€™m pretty sure this is the exact same length i usually draw bonnieā€™s hair. oops? oh well it looks cute. the stars are honestly just there for fun i didnļæ½ļæ½t have anything specific in mind
in a similar vein, i changed their eye shape to match the eye shape on guideā€™s ref! perpetually Sad Looking. on the bright side they arenā€™t constantly crying anymore!
thheir body is. mostly the same? i decided to make their body Red Tinted for the sake of consistency and i removed the separated limbs aaand. thatā€™s basically it? not much to say! i did add the halo bracelet around their wrist as a callback to the separation though. i didnā€™t do the same for its shoulder because i am Lazy šŸ©¶
aaand i think thatā€™s everything? well it Isnā€™t but i think everything else is self explanatory and frankly this is long enough as is. here is the """greyscale""" version as compensation šŸ©¶

On average, what is the total MONTHLY amount that you spend on dining out*?
*(This doesn't only count going out to restaurants, but also stuff like picking up fast food to bring home, getting a coffee on the way to work, getting a premade sandwich from a grocery store deli during lunch, buying a quick snack from a convenience store or food cart whilst walking somewhere, ordering a pizza or any other food to be delivered to your home, etc.)
*(If you often dine out in groups/as a household: calculate and divide the costs so that you get a Per Person average. This is for YOU individually, NOT the total household/group costs)
(I'm sure polls similar to this have been made before (very common topic), I just haven't personally seen one that I can remember, so, I was curious to do my own! I was discussing this with a group of people today and it was very interesting to see how widely the number varied between individuals. :0c )
(Reblog for bigger sample size if you can, and feel free to explain your answer in tags if there's anything extra to add!)
#polls#tumblr polls#I'm mostly in the 0/1 - 25$ category. Maybe the rare month is a bit over $25 if there's something specific going on like birthday.#Which I'm NEVER eating in an actual restaurant (erm... covid... plus I just hate restaurant environments. i would rather pickup#the food and bring it home to a peaceful quiet environment that I control lol). But more typically like stopping by a grocery store deli#section or something. I don't have coffee that much. And I can't eat fast food much due to my health issues/diet restriction stuff#so if I'm out like coming back from an appointment and I start feeling really sick and weak. I know that a hamburger will just#blow up my system and cause nausea or something. So I try to pick the breadiest most#neutral looking turkey sandwich at the safeway deli to eat during the hour ride home or whatever lol#I actually kind of wish I could do stuff like get food more often vecause it would take the burden of cooking everything off of me#but.. alas... Money... and Health Things... T o T#I still wouldn't do it ALL the time but like... once a week instead of once a month or something.. or maybe turning into a coffee#person.. I do love drinks A LOT .. i am a drink person who will have 5 different drinks sipping on at all times#But i just have to make them all myself mostly lol#And I cant really have too much coffee since it will make me sick. so like.. teas and juice mostly#When I inevitably become a millionaire by never using social media never networking and only finishing one#sculpture every 5 months which I dont even post about or sell - then I shall... get more drinks..#I will somehow wean my body onto coffee and drink one a day solely for the ritual of it#Though even then... I would still probably just like.. buy the mateirals to make it at home or something#Like if you had a million dollars you could just buy a kitchen grade ice cream machine and other stuff to make your own milkshakes and#coffees and smoothies and bubble teas. Genuinely I think even if I were a BILLIONAIRE I would still look at playing likr $8 for a single#coffee and go .. uh.... I could just buy the equipment to make this and then save that money. PLUS. its in my house now so no need to#have to leave. I can make my own drinks in the comfort of home. .. ideal..#Like no matter how rich I ever got I would still have the lingering scroogey stinginess. like i am NOT paying for that. I will jus#make it myself. Especially if it was an Everyday thing. Anythign thats part of my routine I try to optimize and make as efficient as#possible... ANYWAY.. In an IDEAL world I would get treats. but probably not that much. as on a daily basis it would start to get#to me and I would just save up to buy kitchen machinery if I was rich lol

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

have compassion for yourself and for others. it seems hopeless but any small amount of good you can do is just that much more love in the world

Tumblr media Tumblr media
LOOK AT THIS??? i did end up ditching the mic but i kept the stickers at least. not sure how i feel about them but they were too iconic to scrap. also the perspective kind of wasnt working out for me i didnt really get the fisheye look i was aiming for but we ball. i actually started the whole thing end of AUGUST and then i completely revamped it look at what i had before
Tumblr media
its a vibe lowkey i like it but unfortunately it was again. not the vision wasnā€™t dramatic enough. i redid it last sunday and worked on it nonstop for days what was i on
