#let me RAMBLE

[devine-fem]

its truly a strange phenomenon that is the fact that writers will write jon so ooc but then have him be so infatuated with damian… is that just me? like its so weird how they do things to put his character in jeopardy with the idea of trying to separate him from robin but then make it seem like he can’t go five minutes without being around damian

like why would you format this like this??? do you want us to like them being apart? then why are they literally helping raise a child together, i dont understand. also, whats going in with jon… hes not superman, hes not superboy… what is he? why did they do him like this and put him in this redundant position…

im just tired, at this point

Dragons:TNR Jörmungandr redesign (rework?) concept

(Also I know that my design pushes beyond limits of TNR animation in more than one way but here I just had fun lol)

I feel like he is not intimidating enough in original. He is very small for an "Apex predator of all dragons" (and let's remember that TNR has Giants Realm so-). I expected him to slide way longer when he was escaping his prison. He also had a lot of troubles with catching dragons (it was honestly sad to watch) And yes, as far as I know snakes are expecionally challenging to rig and animate and TNR doesn't have movie-level budget, but c'mon. It's The Final Boss. (*I think that in concept art he actually is longer so perhaps they shortened him to make animation easier (and cheaper??) considering mad speed seasons were coming out)

Sidenote - that poor danger noodle had so little of any kind of build up. It's really sad. And the first time we see him live he: did shitty jumpscare (build up was actually decent imo, but sound effect and bad animation humbled it), had short, off-screen fight with Sky Torcher after which he didn't even kill him (though he did at least leave some nasty scars and broke Torchie's tooth), and then fucked away. For me it was very underhelming.

Low quality clip for those who didn't watch (I hope Tumblr won't take it down).

Coming back to the design. I really don't like his colors. He got wings but to compensate I decided that he's not a good flier. In my mind he is an ambush hunter. And I know that THE Jörmungandr, the spawn of Loki from the myths, did not have wings, and this is pretty consistent as far as I know, but it is not THE Jörmungandr, so yeah

He is in some way mix between King Cobra, Moray Eel and sea snakes (Yellow-Lipped Sea Krait mostly). I changed his hood to be more similar in construction to a king cobra. In short, it is a bit of loose skin and ribs with the ability to move. In my design, the tips of some of the ribs poke through the skin. Now I don't think TNR would be able to animate it (But i'm not very familiar with 3D animation, especially for shows) so in show he probably would just have hood always flared. His head and sail are inspired by mooray eel because they are dope and I love them. I feel that aspects of sea snakes have died in design - they have a paddle at the end of the tail, but this has already been included in the OG design, so I don't feel the need to talk about it. However, like Sea Krait, Jörmungandr is semi-aquatic. He is much slower on land than in the water, but the difference is not as great as with Sea Krait.

I increased his size - and if he wasn't inprisoned he probably would be about 15-25% longer by now. He's old enough to be a Titan Wing but he isn't normal size - he stopped growing a bit after outgrowing average dragon of his species (let's remember that Red Death is Titan Wing as well!).

*Jörmungandr is longer but Red Death is more massive. Avarage serpents are slightly shorter than Red Death as well.

To be honest, I'm not sure if I didn't overkill it with his size. On the one hand he is large, on the other hand he is mostly long and not that massive. Idk

In addition to the scars, I think Jörmungandr would also be covered with small amounts of moss and other vegetation that started growing on him when he wasn't really active (his cave is very wet/moisty). To survive he spent almost his entire life in a state of brumation, being more active when he sensed meal approaching his reach.

Now, in my mind The Jörmungandr is the name of this particular dragon, not the whole species (Midgard Serpents? IDK), and at the same time he is not a "real" Jörmungandr from the myths. Because words cannot describe how I hate that plot.

I don't know how exactly he got his name but I think it was not because of how big he is, but because of his intelligence and mischievous soul. Again, idk.

Jörmungandr is a tragic dragon. In my version he was not trapped by Hiccup (in my version Hiccup never come back to Hidden World, because c'mon. I don't really like THW but if TNR is continity to that franchise they should follow established canon and not wreck last movie and make it completely insignificant. It loses all it's value if Hiccup, his family and perhaps other vikings, just come back and maybe even lived in the Hidden World anyway! If we have to have human marks and structures, etc. in the Hidden World, I would do it more in the style of “Haddock's Cycle” than “Hiccup and Tom.” Essentially, the creator of these changes is perhaps one of Hiccup's descendants, Tom's ancestors - the "soul of the dragon" that Hiccup and before him his mother had, summoning them to the world of dragons to see "Is it finally time? ”, but it never is, not yet anyway. Idk, I'm trying lol)

I have two concepts: There was once a main entrance to his part of the Dark Realm accompanianed by the waterfalls of magma, but now there's only basalt wall. This would make the closure possible for natural reasons and give Tom an opportunity to show off his geoligical knowledge some more.

Or he was caged in human-build prison, but not by Hiccup. I did that little sketch of how his page in Dragon Book could look in this scenario. Clearly different artstyle than Hiccup's to show that he was not the one to write about this individual (tho in show there's already different styles so--) But at the second thought it can be just illustration for species as whole, so anyway

In both cases, there are ways to enter his personal prison but he is too large to use them. They are still usefull as this is the only way prey will come to his reach. Not many dragons can escape his jaws.

He has spent most of his life in a rather hostile environment to which he was not adapted, which has left scars on his body and psyche. When he's not hunting, he sleeps. Hunger has halted his growth.

Jörmungandr is a damaged, dangerous dragon, the victim of fate and unknown past.

The psychological damage has made him hyper-aggressive, even by the standards of an already aggressive species. I don't think he could ever satiate his hunger either - if he could he would hunt and eat until he consumed everything in range or died of overeating.

For this dragon, it seems too late for a happy ending, unfortunately.

Now about the Midgard Serpents (placeholdern name, I have no idea how to name them) as a whole. Apex Predator may be a bit much, given the existence of dragons like Red Death, Purple Death or Bewilderbeast. However, Midgard Serpents remain one of the dragons that feed almost exclusively on other dragons (and sometimes even other members of their own species - they're cannibalistic), and they're damn good at it. When they feel best in the water, they can follow their prey in the sky or on land. They grow quite large and still are able to take down prey more massive than themselves (mostly thanks to venom and poisonous gas).

I think they are the main predators of 'Deaths and Bewilderbeasts (and other equally large dragons) in the earlier stages of life.

Man I hate seeing this pop up. Like I GET IT but let me write my five paragraph add on essay in the tags in peace.

[cloned-eyes]

Honestly I kinda wished we could get a version where crosshair and mayday make it. Like they successfully flee together and scanavge through the galaxy for a little time with Crosshair not being ready to go back to his brothers just yet and then the Batch run into Crosshair and Mayday by accident while being yet again backup for Phee or something and the scene goes basically like

The batch:😶 ...

Crosshair:😶 ...

Mayday :😃... look other clones who are on the run just like us

And Hunter is ready to equally through hands and hug crosshair and them all being a bit suspicious why Crosshair not only hangs around a Reg but also genuinely likes him

Tech be like: crosshair has made a friend? That never happened before

[geniemillies]

urge to draw more hybern ocs like people from the king's close council or something like that, i have google docs and everything of their descriptions and their jObs. im so delulu abt this forgotten place it's not even a joke and and if there's anything i love more about drawing it's character design bc it's honestly just playing dress up 😖😖

[h3ad1st4hal0s]

would you guys follow a side blog where I put my emotions on blast or nah moots lmk

[cheesecakeislazy]

I’m making this a post because I need to spread my propaganda!!!

In the game Mouthwashing, it’s obvious that Jimmy is an absolute monster, something that doesn’t even deserve oxygen.

Curly? He has his ups and downs. He isn’t perfect. I genuinely think his only character flaw is being friends with Jimmy. Hear me out..

Curly and Jimmy have most likely known each other for YEARS. Due to this, Curly has a soft spot for him. Getting Jimmy a job he probably isn’t qualified for, letting Jimmy get away with horrible acts.

I think that Curly is trying really hard to think positively on Jimmy. However, each new thing makes it harder for Curly to empathize with him. Getting Anya pregnant and raping her probably made him really pissed, but he can’t really do much. They’re on a ship, in space. There isn’t a jail to put him in.

Not to mention the fact- Jimmy wanted the gun AND axe to kill Anya, because she got pregnant. It would obviously be Jimmy’s. Jimmy would get in trouble, his horrible life would get worse. So what does he do? Murder her. But he doesn’t have access to those weapons. So instead, he opts to bring everyone down with him.

So I think that in the present time of Curly being mangled (possibly beyond repair) he HATES Jimmy with all his heart and soul. Jimmy is the reason he is burned, Jimmy is the reason the ship is dying, Jimmy is the reason everyone is suffering, Jimmy is the reason for everything and refuses to take responsibility.

So TLDR; Curly doesn’t condone Jimmy’s behavior, he simply tried to defend a friend and regretted his decision, but Curly really couldn’t do much due to the situation they were all in.

Oh this is going real deep!

I'm thoroughly convinced that Kataang shippers don't even dig into the depths of the Zutara ship. They only see the surface and that's okay.

We see everything on both sides.

Am I right?

We go deeeeeep deep down.

Like Titanic depths.

*casually sings My Heart Will Go On*

Also, I have to talk about the scarf scene real quick...

Was not expecting it, but it has led me to writing my first Zutara story. Like I have to get that in the story somewhere as an Easter Egg.

[orcihd]

Wtf I just found that Bucky and Yelena will supposedly have a romantic relationship in Thumderbolts???? No they’re supposed to be the in-laws that never really knew each other but equally lover Nat. Like hallo?????

[boo-hoo-hooligan]

Spy tf2 is SUCH a psychopath lol

[yeetus-feetus]

so, I was letting my thoughts wander all about when I started thinking about my favourite dynamics within the trio/polyam ships I really enjoy. (I have way too many OT3s) and I came to the- I want to say it's a horrifying conclusion but it's also so funny- that Timbern... is just Suberbatlane. Or, even funnier if you prefer, Cloex.

Is Cloex right? It sounds so dumb, but all of Clark's ship names are pretty dumb so... Like, Clex? Clois? Who came up with those???

Anyways, Bernard is definitely the same person as Lois. What's the difference between an unhinged reporter and a conspiracy theorist? Nothing. They are both going to throw themselves off buildings to prove a point. Getting to the bottom of the story is more important than their self-preservation. They figured out their boyfriends' identities by themselves. And they're both hot, it's part of the unhinged swag. You can't tell me I'm wrong on this.

Pov: you're reading a fanfiction of a Fandom you've never really been into, and haven't seen the original material in forever, you come across a part that resembles the original plot well enough to ring some bells but not enough that you know what's going to happen and then it clicks and you remember that it's a set up for one of your favorite characters and now your relatives are starting to stare because you forgot you were in a public space and started happy stiming because you're an autistic bitch and the most emotion you've shown some of them is an awkward hand wave

[nixierain]

Alright what should I ramble about?

Also in like the replies/comments if you chose worlds or Oc's please tell me

My main worlds are Bromind, Hellena And Dragonopolis

[cosmo-production]

showing off my mario + rabbid oc becuase well... its Tumblr, you've probably seen worse (i did use one those character maker things becuase im not staifed with my art but ill edit some in when im ready)

name: rabbid bowser!

he/they (questioning)

Summary: The rabbid counterpart to the Koopa king who tries his hardest to be the greatest villain the world has ever seen (totally not just for the attention) a theater kid at heart with hidden anger issues make him a villain that not a threat but always a force that puts a table spoon of chaos wherever he goes even if he has a habit of his plans failing loony toons style

fun facts:

likes to alliterate and rhyme when he talks as part is more theactral side

got rabbid clown car he may or may not have stolen from bowser that cant really fly for to long but armed to the teeth

his "lair" is just him freeloding in the lava queen castle, dont worry hes the son she never had

The type villian that care about their minions, loves like family

is rabbid mario's number one hater (do rabbid have bone?) the feeling is mutual, its pretty funny to watch the two make fun eachother for hours on end.

frienemies with rabbid peach. she goes easy this sopping-wet cat of a villain, he develops a crush but im not sure if goes anywhere.

feel free to ask about him please i beg i need to ramble about him to someone
