#like anime characters or book characters

I kept ragging on my coworker’s taste in men (because it’s like the worst type, you know those ugly bastards on the bachelor? That shit) and she went “well you don’t LIKE men so what do you know” and I’m like well ya know. I’m not attracted to them. But I can look at a man and make an informed decision of wether he’s attractive or not. And now she’s like “well pick one and show me then. Show me a man that you think is attractive” and my brain is fucking whiting out. It’s blank. There’s nothing there. Literally cannot fathom a man that could potentially be attractive. It just ain’t working
#I can think of some FICTIONAL men#like anime characters or book characters#but she means like an. an actual real life human man#gross#anyways can’t think of one but I desperately need to so I can win this argument#I think I’m gonna have to fall back on David tennant or some shit 12yo me thought I kinda had a crush on the doctor#it turned out to always be the companion but ya know she doesn’t have to know that

IM SORRY IVE BEEN BUSY MAKING THIS LEVITY RISES INTRO ANIMATIC
song by @maddiesmiles I love her she's so cool
Swaps to note from this:
Bill Cypher // Smile dip Puppies
Read about them here
The altered intro end was moreso to reference the animatics unused one!
Darlene // Paul Bunyan
(Yeah this does mean mason fails to flirt with him Paul, half because he knows he's a cryptid ithink. Paul probably turns into a blue minotaur maybe. As for Darlene, she's probably just a super frequent ad mascot)
Waddles // The axolotl
(the axolotl is called wades! Bc of this change, at the end of the summer Mason doesn't get his memories back immediately- it takes a few months)
Zombies // Gnomes
(I thought flipping the premise of the first episode would be fun, plus, tiny sentient zombies and tall garden gnome like cryptids that kinda stand there sound COOL)
I've been seeing the messages in the inbox, I'll get to answering them soon 😭😭😭

I love Hermes teehee also I decided that Athena should have the lightning scar from God Games so just pretend that I drew it on the other gf/epic drawings of her hehe
#doctorsiren#gravity falls#epic the musical#greek mythology#stanley pines#hermes#pallas athena#mythology falls au#gravity falls fanart#epic the musical fanart#digital art#my art#procreate#is it ironic to have a floating character holding a book titled ‘physics’#ALSO!!#apparently one of Hermes’ symbols / animals is the goat#and there IS always that goat (gompers?) hanging around the mystery shack#dw that’s just Hermes keeping an eye on things 😊🫶#also Hermes is a ‘dream god’ and I feel like that makes him a good parallel to bill bc both are trickster dream gods essentially

Me: hm, I want something to put on the TV as background noise... Huh. Looks like YouTube is recommending something called The Last Unicorn. That's perfect, it's probably some old shitty animation that has aged poorly! I can watch it ironically!
Me, 2 hours later as the credits roll: *crying, cheering, buying the book, composing the songs*
Me, 2 weeks later: So I have compiled all of the quotes from the book that I think could make good tattoos, and also, HOW HAVE I NEVER LEARNED ABOUT HOW THE LAST UNICORN FUCKING SLAPS??? This gay-ass little fairytale fed my soul! Watered my crops! Transed my gender! Can't believe I heard of this story from youtube recommendations, of all places!!
#original#the last unicorn#tlu#peter s beagle#molly gru#schmendrick#schmendrick the magician#two of my favorite characters in anything right there in the center of the story! and I'm glad I saw the film first!#my reading ability has diminished due to trauma disability etc. but it seems like having a visual reference actually really helped!#no wonder i only ever want to read fan fic! turns out reading is not actually Superior to other types of Storytelling. it's just different.#to say otherwise is snobbishness I have been eminently guilty of in my life!#but like it is easier for me to consume tv and movies and that is fine actually. also that's why I'm doing a graphic novel lol#because i wanted to make something i would actually be able to read if i found it at a library. altho the audio book IS gonna be bomb#the audiobook is for visually impaired readers and anyone who wants or needs it! accessible stories for everyone! yeah!!#my gender was already transed but now I've gained an ADDITIONAL gender! which one? I'll never tell 😘#i am so powerful i have so much fuckin gender. my wife has no gender. and she is equally as powerful.#and also she has STUDIED THE BLADE#mostly zoro's blades from One Piece#normally YouTube recommends me shit movies like idiocracy or smth this is like if every day ur cat brought you a piece of rotten food and#then one day it brings you a BEAUTIFULLY ANIMATED TALE FEATURING MY BELOVED TWINK FUCK-UP WIZARD FRIEND AND MY ALL-TIME HOMEGIRL MOLLY GRU#and also it's soft and beautiful and funny and fucking weird!! i wrote melodies to the songs in the books on my ukulele

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE YOUR SQQ HE LOOKS SO FUCKINH DONE WITH LIFE
The recipe for SQQ is: calm on the outside, screaming on the inside.
#poorly drawn svsss#svsss#shen qingqiu#ask#No joke I'm pretty sure he is my favourite 'guy gets transporte'd to another world' character#I recently rewatched the (sadly never to be continued) animated version of SVSSS and I cant get over how perfect he is for the role#He is *so* done with everything going on around him. Forced to be calm and mean. Born to scream and be kind.#The gap between the internal and external dialogue is one of my fav character/writing quirks.#The personification of the 'he lied' dialogue tag.#Love how deep the SVSSS meta and literary analysis community gets with him. Piosplayhouse has opened my eyes to trans SQQ#what is the system is *not* a metaphor for pressure to adhere to societal norms of gender and sexuality?#I really need to finish the books...that is probably my biggest burning hole in my 'DNF' pile. I liked it! I just got busy.

it takes years for terry pratchett's books to get consistently good. I would argue that the series doesn't really hit its stride until Feet of Clay, which means that pratchett was writing and being published for 12 years before he found his groove.
and I genuinely can't imagine that. in part because I do think that pratchett's publication calendar looks different than what's expected of writers today---he had about 2 books published per year for his entire career. he must have been writing furiously, and the publisher must have relatively quickly gotten these to press.
but also....I just can't imagine any modern-day publisher keeping an author on their list for twelve years, unless that author is a prestige get or a constant presence on the bestseller list. And what does it say about the state of publishing that you can't go on publishing someone's good-but-not-revelatory books until they figure out what story they're trying to tell?
#this ties into my other thoughts about the workmanlike genre writers of the 80s and 90s.#king and koontz and even grisham in the early days.#it's a world that's gone away. publishing is a different animal. still....#and I liked prior discworld novels! I think pyramids is great; as is maskarade and lords and ladies#but feet of clay hogfather jingo and carpe jugulum have the feel of someone settling into a groove#jingo is actually really very good. so is carpe jugulum.#you can feel his characters getting smarter. more alive.#(and he takes steps back too; I think thief of time is a good book but it's a little too impressed with its own plot.#and wee free men is a throwback to lords and ladies in a way that's hard to ignore even if tiffany is a delight.#night watch is still good but you know what? not as good as I remember. I prefer jingo.)#also I have figured out pratchett's ''if I handwave a bit about dreams and timelines and magic I do not have to plug this plothole'' trick#I'm mostly amused by his audacity in doing so (and can relate as someone who has maybe used the same trick...)#it's just funny.#discworld

I feel like I should say since there's been a recent uptick in a lot of communities I'm in/see stuff from a lot of white people pretending to be Asian, but you are not welcome here if you are in anyway stealing from Asian cultures for clout or the aesthetics of it
This includes if you're white and you give your self inserts Asian names, I truly do not care if your f/o is from an anime, you should not be using an Asian name under any circumstances. I hate that whenever I see someone using an Asian name online, I feel like I have to start searching their account to see if they're actually Asian or just a white person who likes the aesthetic of it bcs far too many white people will use Asian names here just bcs it sounds cool, with no regard for the actual cultural meaning behind it. Meanwhile actual Asian people will be mocked for their names, or treated like their names are too hard to learn to pronounce, or discriminated against based on their names
Asian cultures are not a fun little costume for people to dress up with. They aren't just a nice aesthetic, they aren't just a thing you can borrow from bcs you think it sounds cool
#my posts#selfship community#anti asian racism#like it's definitely a perpetual problem of white people not seeming to realize asian names are like#a thing that are tied to culture and identity#but it's gotten crazy lately with people pretending to be asian online for clout#just in the past like 3 weeks of things i've seen#we had the white woman pretending to be a japanese woman on comic twitter#the white woman who pretended to be korean to get a 'ownvoices' book published#(who btw. named herself kim chi. you cannot make this shit up)#and then the white guy pretending to be japanese to try to justify his hate of the new assassin's creed game using stuff around yasuke#like it's so draining. i hate how much this is a never ending problem#i hate how casually white people will use asian names#like worstie. i am a korean woman. but i am whitepassing and mixed so i never use korean names for my self inserts#bcs i have the privilege of looking white and people generally only knowing i'm asian if i say it#it feels inappropriate to me for me to name my self inserts a korean name#bcs that would then mean they experience the world in a different way than i do#even being whitepassing bcs of the way people treat korean (and other asian) names#if you are white you have no fucking right to asian names#idgaf if your f/o's an anime character. stay away from asian names bcs they are not yours to dress up in#vent a little bit sorry team#i've been dealing with white people doing this shit and being assholes to me about it for well over a year now. it's exhausting

no you don't get it. i literally love stories where they dive into people's hearts/minds (literally or figuratively) sm it's my favourite type of storytelling.
#p5s#fairy ranmaru#shiguang daili ren#limbo the king#king in limbo#pet anime#pet manga#pet 2020#dmmd#homunculus#homunculus manga#sankaku mado no sotogawa wa yoru#the night beyond the tricornered window#sarazanmai#id invaded#paprika 2006#wonder egg priority#tedpost#it allows them to portray emotions in such visually interesting ways#and is a great way to make parallels between the person who's mind they're in and the main characters#these were all the ones i could think of rn but i bet theres more that i havent seen yet#also i only mentioned scramble here because i think it does this concept better than regular p5 lmao.#FEEL FREE TO SUGGEST ME MORE OF THESE#doesnt matter what medium or genre!! could be a book a movie idc i eat stuff like this upppp#EDIT; updates the post after reading ltk and checking if tricorner fit this desc#EDIT; added homunculus too because whilst technically he never actually enters anyones minds he does visualise them into the real world#so its the same end result of seeing a person's true thoughts and feelings. but a slightly different method to get there

congrats to bill cipher on managing to be both sides of the "it's me boy i'm the ps5" meme
#he's just That possessive and controlling in both the shitty partner way (original voice) and the. i guess supernatural way (duet voice)#bill cipher#gravity falls#the book of bill#and let's be real. we know who it's directed at#stanford pines#billford#definitely would animate him as the second one though (if i did this) (not likely) because i don't think anyone else could fit that#to be fair i could say this about giffany also actually#characters that are both the awful partner and The Entity#diversity win????????#fiddleford as the first voice is slightly cursed to me but it could work i gueeess (not really but situationally it's the closest..)

This is definitely my favorite runner in book 6
#scott pilgrim#scott pilgrim's finest hour#ramona flowers#knives chau#envy adams#gideon graves#dumb stuff#book 4 is still my favorite in terms of comedy#but book 6 definitely has some gold moments from the expressions to this runner etc#4 and 6 are tied for my faves in the series. 4 i like for the character development and humor and ~roxie <3~#but 6 has the ending which is probably my favorite ending to any series i've ever read or watched. it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside#anyways i reread the entire series in one day because of the anime and my cringe teen hyperfixation phase reawakened like a sleeper agent#i'm riding it out at this point and waiting for it to settle down. or something new and shiny grabs my attention#whichever comes first

I have SO many thoughts about everything and they are in no kind of order yet, so here's just some quick little bits in the meantime!
I am not normal about any of these characters!
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 part 6 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 part 6 spoilers#me just staring at the ceiling thinking about anime characters#if i start talking about the big stuff now it's going to turn into a huge rambling mess so in the meantime#i did not get sebek (yet) (i need to contemplate my gems...) but i did see his groovy#he is just full-on cinderella-sparkles bibbidi-bobbidi-booing into that armor! magnificent.#and i really don't have enough words for how much i love tiny malleus. he is perfect. he is precious. he is everything to me.#he knows who his dad is no matter what some crusty dead talking ectoplasm blobs say#(man no wonder lilia's got hangups if THAT was the general attitude he was getting)#('eww you got your dirty bat cooties on the prince' go sit in the corner with mrs. rosehearts you absolute garbage)#(...i did kind of love that lilia started to wake up because the senate said one nice thing to him)#(and he immediately was like 'this is not reality')#(sounds about right)#on a lighter note i was just. SO charmed by the little throwaway about ✨dragon lord consort esteemed diplomat revaan✨#who picks the vegetables out of his food and hides them under the tablecloth#everything i learn about this man makes me like him more. he was SO dumb.#now we know where malleus gets it from i guess#also unrelated but once again the fact that i named my mc tamago has had unintentional consequences#tamago take the tamago and tamago tamagao tamago#frikkin love that when yuu gives the egg back you can just be like 'i love him. this is my baby now.' 100% accurate.#also yuu continually referring to malleus as tsunotarou even to the senate = amazing. yuu really has NO self-preservation or awareness.#they fit right in with everyone else#<- see what did i tell you. huge rambling mess.#and i haven't even BEGUN to talk about MELEANOR -- (is dragged offstage by a hook)

Which version of this do you prefer?
#like w robin hood the original here is obviously just kind of like. a loose set of myths and legends.#so you can think of that option as kind of just being “i like the general idea/mythology associated with this character” i guess#also again. there are SO many riffs on Arthurian legends. this is just a few. i may do another poll at some point with a different set#also labelling most of these as “interpretations” because even more so than the robin hood ones which thats what they are#more than they are “adaptations” exactly#bbc merlin#merlin bbc#merlin 1998#the sword in the stone#excalibur 1981#excalibur#john boorman#camelot#camelot musical#the once and future king#le morte d'arthur#arthurian legend#thomas malory#th white#t h white#fairy tales#legends#books#musicals#musical theater#animations#animated films#films#tv shows#king arthur

Dogs of War is a fun sci fi book, but I wish it leaned a bit more into being about man’s relationship with animals rather then being kinda a standard AI story just with uplifted animals instead of robots.
#Like…as much as you can with a book about a cyborganic dog man with guns#The more interesting parts is when it leans into the animal nature of the characters having limited reasoning and critter desires#a lot of the parts from the human povs feel like you could of replaced uplifted dogs with robots and it wouldn’t of changed much

lan wangji in ace attorney!! turn on sound 🔊 / traced over edgeworth's sprites :) more info below the cut ↓
also including a bonus Happy Wangji that i couldn't fit into the video!
his share code is YCNKBA! the music used is Recollection -- Light and Shadow of the Film Studio. I thought it had a nice, contemplative feel, between Suspense, which was too intense for the scene, and Heartbroken Maya, which was too sad. the wwx/jc/lwj reunion scene is truly sososo interesting in every adaptation.
→ masterpost here! ←
#my emotional support longterm semi-obscure crossover animation series based off of a throwaway joke#i poured all my thoughts about the jc/wwx reunion into my yiling patriarch shitpost just like. scroll a bit down on my blog#would love for jc to have more expressions in this but sadly if i have to go back and edit a finished piece i spontaneously combust 😔#lan wangji and miles edgeworth autistic kings#its very funny to me that my sprite with the most emotions yet is the character that famously doesnt emote#i used the internet archive EXR translation again#edited some of the dialogue cause it didn't sound very natural/was too long#but i also found out that the entire series of official english mdzs books are on the internet archive?? straight up??#by 2042 ill have animated every single character and recreated the entire novel in objection.lol so watch out for that lmao#mdzs aa au#mdzs#aa#lan wangji#mo dao zu shi#grandmaster of demonic cultivation#the grandmaster of demonic cultivation#mxtx#wangxian#jiang cheng#wei wuxian#twin prides of yunmeng#ace attorney#animation#art#my art#pixel art#objection.lol#flashing tw#flashing images tw#flashing cw
