Done (heavy quotation marks) with monster Ody @evergreen292 ;)
tbh I couldn’t for the life of me pick a color palette I liked And Render it so I gave up on color. Enjoy the half assery.
Tbh I’ve just been call it Ithacan Naga, but it’s objectively it’s a mix of snake, owl/bird, and human. So 🤷.
Tbh the wings are supposed to be white/gray-brown, cause owls & Hermes, while his scales are supposed to be an oscillating scale from sea green-blue to purple-tinted gray. Uhm. Evidently that sorta didn’t happen but also did. So.
The purple/grayer scales are gonna be more around with the feathers and wings.
Those fin colors are. Too blue and too bright but I love the colors themselves so they’re staying for now.
Uhm. That’s it for now, ig. I’m sorta on a timer rn and I’m tired so <3
The writing bit with this is still in the works (😭)
#Odysseus#epic the musical#Ithacan naga au#guess that’s what we’re calling it#an Ithacan naga would deadass just be an aquatic naga#I think#the feathers and wings are cause he’s Zeus/Hermes’ kin & Athena blessed#tbh the main reason i wanted to color at all is cause I wanted easier differentiation between… everything. and actually draw the scales.#so snakes have this extra (?) bone that connects their skull & jaw which is what lets them extend it. so. ody gets that here.#resting/casual naga ody is like. 7ish ft? anything intimindation or just rising usually reaches 11-12 ft. his full length js 20 ft#naga eyes don’t have any eyelids. it looks very odd on a human (unsettling)#owl eyes don’t really have visible white scelcra#or however you spell it#nor do snakes#unsettling#maybe I’ll caption this later but hhhhh#he’s sorta supposed to be an olive sea snake and fish owl#but fuck colors rn#uhm cause he’s aquatic I suppose he does have to make up with Poseidon… uhm let’s say after everything Seidon picks up a fuss and Athena#argues back n everything and it causes a reallllly big fuss so Zeus (+ others) eventually work smth out that basically amounts to:#Don’t fuckin bother each other (intentionally)#also endgame for naga ody (he can change back and forth dw) is that he gets used to it. he doesn’t advertise it cause he’s sneaky like that#(and after he gets over the self loathing). uhmmm. yeah. It’s great cause NEREID PEN and SEA NAGA ODY#they can go on sea hunts together!!!!#ody CAN fly yes. same logic that lets Hermes fly with 2 small pairs of wings on his ankles and head.#he folds the wings when swimming and the fins fan out underwater. vice versa. his feathers are waterproof.#you can BARELY see the vauge shape of thighs/legs melting into the serpent part btw.#Ari’s art#my art#I’mma add onto this + actually type this out in a post later or smth

i never posted the finished piece?? this is the actual first pmd fanart i ever did (before i got into oc making lol). dated december 2023.
sorry dusknoir hadn’t entered the polycule on my mind by the time i made this btw. maybe someday i’ll redraw this with him too. that would make it the redraw of a redraw as this is already redraw of art i found on an AMV from like 2011 hahajsjs
#my art#pmd eos#pmd explorers#pokemon mystery dungeon#pmd2#grovyle#celebi#pokemon#they had a ship name that i cannot recall rn! oh well#this was my first attempt at drawing pokemon after i was like. i want to say 11 but maybe i was 12.#i really liked pokemon at that time bc of friends then we had a falling out and my love for pokemon kinda left as well?#idk i sold my alpha sapphire copy which i regret every single day. anyways.#maybe growing up is just going back to old interests but less afraid now? idk#<- not quite im just oversimplifying how growing up has felt. at least for me#it’s almost a year since december 2023. i have been unwell about pmd for almost a year now. what.#bc i started my playthrough in like august or october of last year but i got around to finishing the entire game in january i think. woagh

seeing a bunch of yugitubers finally white knuckling teeth clenching admitting that links were actively detrimental for the game and that pendulums were not the core issue is so satisfying, actually
#i will fully admit pend has some mechanical flaws overall with card design but thats more komani being uncreative#i have no idea how people saw a mechanic actively restrict and break every other mechanic for 3 years#before needing to shamefully be changed didnt have anyone at the time going “hm maybe links arent good”#like ofc a huge issue is stacked af generic extra deck boss monsters. but fundamentally links mechanically are just too broken#you can turn literally all cards into advantage how were people ok with this. and this is coming from someone who thinks links CAN be good!#'uuuhhhhh pendulums are busted!!!“ hyou summon monsters for free!!!!!” turn 1 you can summon like#3-4 if youre being generous. and how is that worse than the 1 card starter into 37 special summon step combo#“but pepe!!!!” zoodiacs. spyral. firewall dragon being fucking banned. are you listening to yourself#its genuinely incredible how people whine about the card text but are like 'yeah i can remember a half hour combo line no sweat"#being made to wait at the airport for ANOTHER 12 hours so im allowing myself to be a hater#anyways learning that pendulums have less total cards than links is my 13th reason. its my 9/11#i have no fucking idea why konami hates pends so much but man do i want to dissolve them for it (alongside other reasons)

reminder that if you're not watching Crayon Shin-chan then you are living a hollow and empty life. this is not edited. this ripped straight from the movie (Movie 8: Jungle That Invites the Storm, highly recommend for fellow Masaaki Yuasa lovers)
if you need further convincing: these monkeys run an animation sweatshop
#i've made this disclaimer on another post but will again since i've seen a lot more of the movies now#the movies are VERY good and very enjoyable but unfortunately the first handful are bogged down by transphobic/homophobic/okama stereotypes#they kind of vary in their severity. Movie 5 i think is the biggest catalyst because it features the stereotyped characters the most#prominently. Movie 3 doesnt really have caricatures per se but saves a very backhanded reveal for the end#Movies 1 and 4 are a bit more tolerable if my memory is correct. Movie 2 i think is kind of comparable to Movie 5 with its caricatures#in that the characters have similar roles in both movies#i admittedly can't remember what caricatures there were in Movie 6 or 7. 7 i think barely had anything#RAMBLE RAMBLE BASICALLY: these jokes are within the first 7 movies or so 5 being the zenith then reducing down and down. by movie 8 it's sa#e#i give these disclaimers because these movies are all very enjoyable and i would not recommend them if i didnt think there wasnt any merit#o them. they are all very much worth watching. Movie 5 still has a lot of very enjoyable stuff in it (there's a showdown in a supermarket!!#but i just want to make sure that is clear and established since transparency is good to have and i dont want anyone's viewing experience t#be ruined because they weren't given the proper warning#if it's any consolation it's my understanding that even the directors hated doing the jokes#iirc Keiichi Hara really didn't like doing the jokes and i think had a talk with the mangaka Yoshito Usui and was like 'uh dude this is#gonna age horribly can we maybe not'#ironically Hara's first film is Movie 5. which is again the biggest offender#BUT! that is my spiel. my understanding is that it's contained to those 6 or 7 first movies and i think is strictly just a movie thing#so please do give these films a watch but just be mindful at the same time#if anyone needs recommendations my favorites have been movies 4 and 9 but i genuinely really enjoyed every one that i have seen#i've seen the first 11 and a half movies (need to finish 12) and movie 22. the worst i've felt about one is 'oh that was pretty good!'#each film has its own merit and is very very very much worth watching#22 was the first Shin-chan anything i watched and all my Shin-chan expert friends say 4 is a good introductory piece#in case that influences anything/makes it easier to break in#so. thus concludes my spiel#csc#vid

Doctor: Huh, is that who I am now?
Donna: It was never that far from the surface, mate.
Doctor: frowns Yes, it was! You know I used to be a woman. And that made people... assume all sorts of stuff. And - and pretending to be Graham's wife for five minutes was bad enough but - Byron? That was torture. Does the man ever stop talking?
Donna: Takes one to know one
Doctor: Oi! I just mean, there were all these men people assumed I would be into and I - and I just - I just wanted -
Donna: I know, darling.
Doctor: softly I just wanted Yaz.
Donna: I know. - There was one man, though, remember?
Doctor: No, there wasn't! I don't fancy the Master!
Donna: ...
Doctor: Okay, fine. But the Master isn't a man. He's like me! Flexible - uh - timelord gender and stuff.
Donna: Sure.
Doctor: So, anyway, I have always been primarily into wom-
Donna: What about Jack Harkness?
Doctor: - Jack doesn't count, everyone fancies Jack.
Donna: ...fair enough.
#Donna: can we also talk about how you were literally married to a man in Gloucester?#Doctor: How is THAT something that stuck to your brain?#Donna: I met you there. Shaun and I did the walking tour.#Doctor: Huh. - Was I any good?#Wild blue yonder#Donna Noble#Sorry I am just still hung up on the 'is that who I am now' comment#Because I feel like what they actually meant to say was the Doctor going I AM QUEER?!?!#as if they didn't just spend three entire series making heart eyes at Yaz#So it makes more sense to interpret it as 'Hang on I like men too?' but honestly even that is such a stretch?#Yeah sure 13 is very much not into men#(except for the Master)#(maybe Astos)#(possibly Swarm)#(obviously Jack)#But any other incarnation has been very openly into men?#Like 12 kept name dropping guys he fancied/was fancied by? Like that algae king and stuff. Also the Master#(Let's not talk about 11)#10 had a very intense thing with Harold Saxon AND Jack#Plus the number of guys he flirted with - among them Shakespeare#And I don't even have to talk about 9 whose first kiss on screen was with a man#To be fair it is mostly off-screen/casual and the Master and Jack#So like if we interpret it as above we can make it work at least#(But. Yes. Also: Lee!! Literally married a man. Even if that was only for staying undercover there were definitely some deep feelings there#and I am quite sure had they been purely platonic they would not have posed as married. But as siblings or best friends or something)#If we are being completely real the sentence is probably about the Doctor discovering they can find people hot now#But that actually wasn't there before I think?#So then Donna's comment makes little sense#Or no hang on - 12 found the dinosaur hot and all of them the TARDIS obviously#So maybe that's what it's all about actually

It's Bill and Paul headcanon time!
Featuring the Jon Matteson family tree!
Bill is quite a bit older than Paul, being 43 in TGWDLM, while Paul is 31. For Paul to be Richie's uncle, he'd need a sibling (most likely a sister, considering the different last names) who's also a fair bit older. If Paul's sister (Richie, Trevor and Daniel's mother) was 12 years older than him, that would make her 27 at the time of having the twins, which is a very fair age to start a family.
My sister and I have named her Joan Lipschitz, after Jon. And that should have you all caught up on our Jon Matteson family tree.
NOW! Bill and Joan went to school together at Sycamore, and they were in the same, fairly big (8–9 people) friend group. The two of them as a pair weren't super frickin close or anything, but in the company of others from the group, they did visit each other's houses sometimes.
The first time Bill met Paul, Bill was 16 and Paul was 4, and Bill + a few friends were hanging out at the Matthews' house. Bill hung out at Joan's a few more times, meeting her baby brother maybe 10–15 times in total throughout high school.
Bill and Joan weren't close enough to keep in close touch once they graduated, but they were (and are) still friendly with each other. Eg. if they run into each other at the supermarket, they'll stop in the middle of the aisle and spend fifteen minutes catching up, much to Alice, Trevor, Richie and Daniel's dismay. (The first time Bill met Trevor and Richie, probably under exactly those circumstances, he was like "Wow, they look almost exactly like how I remember your little brother!". Matthews genes are STRONG).
Anyway, skip forward a few years, Bill's 36 and Paul's 24, and Paul starts working at the CCRP technical department. Bill was immediately like, "Huh, I feel like I recognize you." (Again, 'cause the genes in that family are fucking strong; Joan basically looks like a female version of Paul). Paul's like, "Huh. I don't recognize you." and then he leaves it at that.
A day or two later, it finally clicks for Bill, and in the middle of their noon coffee break, Bill just goes, "OH MY, PAUL MATTHEWS AS IN JOAN MATTHEWS' BABY BROTHER?"
And that was the true beginning of their friendship, thank you very much.
#at some point Paul mentioned that he babysits his nephews sometimes#and that's how he ended up also babysitting Alice#she was 11–12 at the time and thought she definitely didn't need a babysitter#but then she and Paul started watching Disney movies and then maybe it wasn't so bad anymore#starkid#hatchetfield#hatchetverse#the guy who didn't like musicals#starkid tgwdlm#tgwdlm#paul matthews#bill woodward#jon matteson family tree#tgwdlm paul#paul tgwdlm#bill tgwdlm#hatchetfield headcanons#hatchetfield headcanon

genuinely why is there so much misinformation about the guardians of childhood book series?
#Lemme be a toxic fan for a moment bc im so tired and stressed and i need to yell my silly fandom frustrations out to the void#The people saying Jack is fourteen in them. No.#He can manipulate his age from 11 to 18 and is dating a 25 yr old#people still insist that the books are connected to the movie despite there being no possibility for that since 2018#And like they totally guess what happens in the books#I saw someone try to say that dreamworks were being 'weird' and aged Jack up to ship him with tooth but in the books he was a child#three things: He's not fourteen (see above for age. He's essentially an adult and is treated as such) and is dating an adult#And he didn't make an official appearance in the books until 2018. Six years AFTER the movies release#and thirdly dreamworks aged him DOWN????#Joyce's og idea was an adult with a wife + kids ???#Like what are you talking about#never mind the people insisting that JACK IS 12???? NO??? Where did you get ur information bc wtf???#the movie started production (in 2008) before any of the books even existed (first book was published in 2011)#We have no idea how much of the books they had! The most they had were Joyce's ideas that were subject to change (and boy did they change)#the walking eggs in the movie didn't come from the book (even tho they're in there) they came from Joyce's doodling on notes!#The third book published alongside the movie tie-in books and then days later the finished film premiered at the Mill Valley Film Festival#by the time the second book rolled around (2012) the movie was probably finished and was just getting distributed by paramount and#was possibly even finished in 2011! Four years of production of the movie and then the first book got released#I cannot express enough how much the books are not the source material for the movie. If anything is it's the 2005 short film Joyce made#God it's so infuriating to see people discussing the books like they're the Bible without having read it. I get so irrationally upset#And why are we talking about the books like they have any relevance to the movie after 2018? that book completely severed all ties#Like I get it if people want to connect them but you'd have to ignore the entire last book to do that (which yeah most do)#but there's so many assumptions about the books and it makes it clear who got their into from fan rumors and who actually read them#if you are basing ur understanding of a book you've never read based on fanfic maybe you just shouldn’t say anything about the book#rotg#rise of the guardians#guardians of childhood#goc

Hey y'all! I am considering trying listening to podfics, but I have no idea where to start. Like, I read a lot of fanfic, but idk how one goes about listening to them? Is it like an app, or a download it kind of thing, or what? Do you have any advice or specific recommendations? In the past I have really, really struggled with books on tape because I cannot focus on just listening, but I like listening to like sort of documentary-ish videos while sewing and that's just a person talking, so probably I would be able to focus on audiobooks or podfics now?
#the person behind the yarn#I have nothing against audiobooks or podfics I think they are excellent!#It's great to have options and everybody has different accessibility requirements and preferences#I think part of my strong dislike for listening to them myself though came from my oldest sibling's high school reading#they did not like reading the assigned books so our mom got it on tape and it meant the only thing playing in the car#for like WEEKS was The Old Man and the Sea#but I was not in the car every time they were! So I couldn't follow the story! and I hated only getting bits of it#and then the next audiobook was on a road trip and it was...one of the robinson books I think#swiss family robinson or robinson carusoe? one of the stranded on an island classics#but the environment of the island made absolutely no sense#and the animals they described as native to the island could not reasonably exist in the same environment#and when I (age like 11 or 12 maybe) expressed that everyone else in the car thought it was funny#but I was genuinely very upset about the book's unrealistic depiction of animals lol#anyway none of that is relevant here I just want to try listening to stories again

The age difference between tommen and myrcella bothers me way more than it should like sometimes it's 2 whole years sometimes they're the exact same age like grrm wanted to make them twins but he forgot. Girl what is the truth
#.txt#grrm has a loose grasp on numbers unfortunately#in agot myrcella is 'not quite eight' and in affc she's 'not quite one-and-ten' ok so she went from 7 to 10 in 2 years?#and in 2 years tommen went from 7 to 8 uhhh if she's almost 11 he should be 9 at least right#maybe he is 9 but everyone just forgot his birthday lmao#BUT in the agot appendix it say's she's 8. which makes more sense. if she's 8 turning 9 instead of 7 turning 8#but BUT the wiki (my best friend and worst enemy) says she was born in 290. bc they take the 'not quite 8' thing as fact#which. ok after pacing around the house talking to myself like a madman that's not possible. it has to be 289 ☝ I think. um#I don't fucking know man I also don't have a very firm grasp on numbers. but something's not right here#idk grrm definitely fucked up some ages in affc bc it says joffrey died at 12. damn he died so hard he aged backwards 😔#btw this is the second time I've gone insane thinking about grrm's bad math today. and that was only considering time#imagine if I also thought about space too hard...thank god my understanding of distances sucks ass

Sorry I've been so quiet!!!!!!!! He bought me Veilguard, and I will literally not care about anything else until I'm burned out. I literally have only been taking breaks from playing to talk to 1 (one) person and that's person who decided that he wanted to spoil me rotten with a game I've been eagerly anticipating for a fucking decade 😭
#maybe its aveline#also !!!!!!! 11 fucking days!!!!!!#too many days but i literally am so excited you have no idea like ugh#but also like 12 years old again whenever i think about him because i have the giantest crush on him#i havent felt like this in so fucking long and i cant wait to get completely wiped out when i meant him in person bye

getting into ben 10 is so sad bc I binge the entire OS and am like wow cant wait for more and then every other series doesnt have the things I liked about OS and even casual fans online say that 10yo Ben's character in OS is more compelling than all the others but theres barely any of him after OS
#how did that episode in ultimate alien when it brought back 10yo ben make him 10 times more compelling#but only his 10yo self and not his current self in the show#but fr it was so sad learning that they immediately jumped straight to a 5 year timeskip after OS#plus artstule change plus recast plus major personality shift plus redesign#like looking at alien force ben next to OS ben idk who the hell that is bc thats not ben#its fine like im chill with just being neutral/uninterested in the later series and just sticking with OS#thats the power of fandom#i dislike his omniverse characterization but that doesnt mean i dont love rook#and i wont stick him into OS as a self indulgent au#theres also multiple things i like about the later series for sure tho like#1 rook like i just said but also#ben and gwens relationship. i love that they didnt play around with them in AF#and doom dimension likeee#i dont like how theyre written in AF and UA but that stuff is bomb#i think it all boils down to me wishing the show didnt feel split up in eras with different versions of the characters#and it was more linear#like instead of instant 5 year timeskip it was like. now ben and gwen are 11 or 12. maybe even 13#it shows more development that isnt just a huge jump from 0 to 100#ben getting more mature is the natural progression of his character but also#its the fact that they gave him major development in OS then changed everybody so jarringly they didnt even feel like the same characters#like theres a reason OS ben is the most compelling#it should have been more linear close together and less broken up in my opinion#pandas.txt#they just made ben look so normal and boring in most of the clips ive seen in the later series#plus not even feeling like the same guy#maybe ill try and watch the reboot#it rlly is chill tho bc im fine with just liking OS its a great show#anything i wanted to see i can just think of in my head myself and now i have a bunch of stuff to play around with#once i get more into it#bc this show is so fun and great and i love it i rlly do wanna stick with it

its really funny to me (and by funny i mean infuriating), how vastly different the acceptable levels of silly nonsense are between different eras of specifically the revival
its like, RTD era: incredibly dumb moment (affectionate), Moffat era: that's silly (derogatory), Chibnall era: I have to suspend my disbelief??? (borderline homocidal)
#the tenth doctor solves a murder mystery with agatha christie#the murderer is a giant wasp/anglican vicar#what a fun romp#11 meets pirates and fights a siren#chiche and bad#12 meets robin hood and fights some robots#but robin hood isn't real#how could anyone take this seriously#13 and giant spiders#how dare chibnall do this to the show#and to be clear#i like all of these episode#okay maybe only the first 2 thirds of arachnids in the uk#but thats beside the point#i like all of doctor who#urrrrgh#anyway#and if its classic#it just gets taken at face value#its like#people make fun of the kandy man#or aliens made of bubble wrap#and its like#its good in context#seek out the context#done complaining now i think

after doing a literature review of 13's book era, i conclude: what the fuck?? what the fuck????? what do you mean only 3 official BBC line books, At Childhood's End, 2 anthologies and then whatever Doctor of Oz is. And like. That's it. Those are the novels. From 2018 to 2022 those are the 13th Doctor novels, compared to 10 and 11 whole dozens of novels, 12s 3 novels per season and a supplemental heaping of audios (and probably some other anthologies and such I don't know about) 13 gets 4 novels and 2 anthologies. 6 books (7 if you count Doctor of Oz which I kinda do but it's part of a weird line) for 3 seasons, 4 years of being the Doctor, I just...
jesus christ
i think i'm always going to be mad about how snubbed 13 got in literally every direction
#every time i'm like maybe they didn't do her as dirty as they could have i remember this#the books have been in decline since 11 was doctor I will admit#but 12 got a decent amount of audio stories#i think 13 got one#and now that we've got ncuti the moment has passed#just-aaaaagh#the fact i have the majority of her books on my shelf right now#and i have 4 books. just FOUR#think of all the cool stories we could have gotten#even just another set from season 12#or a run of just yaz and the doctor being mean to each other i would have taken anything#i really hope they bring back doing the novels#doctor who#doctor who books#doctor who eu
