louis + cruelty
#iwtvedit#iwtv#interview with the vampire#louis de pointe du lac#grace du pointe du lac#lestat de lioncourt#claudia#armand#daniel molloy#I WANT TO BE CLEAR THAT THIS GIFSET IS COMING FROM A PLACE OF DEEP LOVE. i love that louis has a little vicious streak.#that sometimes he goes for the lowest possible blow. it's an excellent character detail.#especially since he usually works so hard not to do harm and to be the best person he can. it makes him so much more realistic.#when he's backed into a corner he goes for the throat and i think that's an incredible facet to him.#i support his wrongs etc etc.#if i see people using this as a jumping off point to hate on louis i will probably just start blocking people tbh.#this is not an invitation to reduce him as a character to JUST this#i simply like it when he lets loose.

this is the Gaza Family Funds Directory, a spreadsheet of palestinian families' gofundmes, sorted by the amount of support they've received thus far. please choose as many as you can from this list to donate to, even just a dollar.
in addition, the sheet also contains a link to a gdrive folder with designs for flyers/stickers that you can print out and place in your community. if you truly can't spare anything directly now, please consider doing this so you can get these links in front of people who can donate!
it also remains urgent to keep the people of palestine connected in the face of communication blackouts; please contribute esims! it is very easy to do and is fully explained on this page: https://gazaesims.com/
if you cannot afford the price of an esim individually, there's a campaign currently running on twitter to which you can contribute whatever you can afford ($1, $3, whatever) to a larger pool which will then be used to buy esims collectively. there's also the crips for esims for gaza fundraiser, which operates similarly. there are probably more than this! i chose these two for this post bc they are currently active + both have easily vettable proof of donation (screencaps in the qrts of the twitter campaign, financial accountability document in the crips for esims campaign.)
finally, look into local grassroots organizations in your area so you can stay in the loop on protest activity. many such orgs have accounts on instagram. if you are in the us, looking for local chapters of the PSL, the palestinian youth movement, or national students for justice in palestine can be a good start.
please, please, please: pick something here and do it. i know it can feel overwhelming and there may be an urge to tell yourself that you'll reblog this now and get around to it later. instead please choose one thing. even if it's just finding orgs in your area and following them so you'll be notified the next time there's a protest. even if it's just downloading the flyer designs and looking up a print shop where you can run off a stack of copies. make a decision to do something tangible right now, even if it's just a first step.
#this is not an exhaustive list of fundraisers or avenues of action at all. it's just what's in front of me right now#let seeing stuff like this be a jumping off point for looking more in-depth and finding stuff in your own area too#at the end of the day everything helps -- including just boosting things -- but to get anywhere we all need to individually engage#free palestine

jealous!ford x reader headcanons
pre relationship:
depending on his current mood and state of mind, his reaction to someone showing romantic interest in you ranges from:
1) heartache,
feels like he doesn't deserve you, that he isn't good enough for you, he's not your type and also he is too old for you
self-esteem on the floor, feels like a kicked puppy seeing you flirt with someone else
over 2) mild annoyance; 'what's so interesting about them?'
what could they possible give you? why are you even talking to them, you already said you aren't interested in them
to 3) almost hostile towards the other person
all in all just one big mess of feelings
he's not good with them okay
confused and frustrated by his emotions; spends a lot of time overthinking them, in order to rationalise and understand them
too insecure and doubtful to tell you about his feelings, but too easily agitated to not be jealous when someone comes up to ask for your number
tells himself he has no right to feel that way, and yet...
in relationship:
protective and maybe a little possessive. maybe a bit more than a little. okay, a lot
definitely a lot more than he shows
(related to the first points pre-rls) very rare reaction: amused. god complex activated. who do they think they are? do they really think you would be interested in them? tch, please.
when he sees a guy flirting with you, he will come up behind you, put his arm around your waist and stare the guy down
the scene where he intimidates the bus driver, just to any shady guy who won't leave you alone.
insecurities, so soo many of them
'You could have anyone you want. Why would you wanna be with me?' *
that man was bullied his entire youth, never had a proper relationship and holds so much trauma and shame - it's the glue that holds him together at this point
ford is deeply afraid to loose you
through something supernatural or otherwise dangerous yes, but also trough some stupid mistake on his side and interpersonal problems
he is afraid he will mess up one day. then you will start seeing him as someone not worthy of your love and find someone better
it is one constant battle between his low self-worth and his god complex/admittedly somewhat inflated ego
-------------------------------------------------- thank you for reading <3 reblogs are appreciated
a/n: longer piece with this trope will follow soon(ish), stay tuned :P poor ford, doesn't know how to feel his feelings appropriately (same dude, same) * 'jealous' by eyedress
#apologies if this is all over the place or too repetitive i jumped between the paragraphs a lot#deleted and moved a lot of points too#i'm pretty sure i am missing some#also got a little off topic i feel like...#gravity falls#i've stared too long at these so fuck it imma just post it#gf#stanford pines#ford pines#stanford pines x reader#stanford x reader#my writing#cs#gf headcanons#headcanons#gravity falls headcanons#god i love the bus scene#both ford and stan are so *chefs kiss*

That one square wheels episode of mythbusters, am I right?
#my art#stanley pines#stanford pines#fiddleford mcgucket#young stanford pines#young stanley pines#young fiddleford#mystery trio#I guess?? it is the three of them.#yes yes I did chop the mullet off but he might grow it out again but with proper hair care.#mysterybusters au#it’s a good idea. trust. mythbusters but it’s a Gravity Falls public access television series run by these idiots.#I could not tell you which one of them would be the one jumping on the treads to make them fit on the wheel or who would get bigger treads#ignore the fact I can’t draw cars. google images was fighting me on references#I can’t decide wether or not stan should have his glasses at this point. because I’d imagine this is in the first month or two of them#running the show. so maybe 3 or 4 months after he and ford reconnect. hhhhmmmmmmmm#you can tell I drew fidds at like 1 am lol

Small but significant character moments that I actually really adore are from both the times we see the boys as tots. There is a reoccurrence that happens in both of them that I find so incredibly interesting.
For the turtle tot short, Splinter leaves the boys with weapons. In the short, Raph is the one who suggests they do “what Lou Jitsu would do” and Leo is the one who takes point when Splinter comes back to reprimand them. Leo, in taking point, is the one to defend them and get Splinter off their tails.
And then, in the flashback regarding the Kuroi Yōroi helmet, Raph is the one who grabs and throws “Skully” as a way to replace their missing ball which breaks it into pieces, but Leo is the one who speaks for the group and rushes into action to fix the teapot.
I love this for multiple reasons, but the biggest are how it shows that Raph has always been inclined toward the bold and fun and making the plans to include his brothers in what he loves and believes they’d love, whereas Leo has always been inclined to be the “Face” of the group and shoulder the attention even if it’s potentially negative all while coming up with on the spot attempts to fix the situation.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt raph#rottmnt leo#rise Raph#rise leo#I really do love this bit of character writing a ton#again it’s so small but like this is consistent!#little Raph just wanted to have fun with his bros 😭#Leo immediately coming in with the save both times (and more - remember Bug Busters?)#I really love too how none of them pointed fingers like#it was Understood that Leo would speak for them#listen there’s a reason Leo is the Face Man and it’s NOT just because he’s got a pretty face#he can talk both himself and his fam out of situations and I wish we saw it even more because it’s amazing to witness#circling back to Raph his bold nature is something I ADORE about him but I don’t see it brought up a lot which makes me so sad#like this boy is a RAPHAEL he is bold!!#and it’s cute too how the other bros immediately go along with it too#imo the Raph in these tot flashback is the same Raph that glues them all together as a bonding exercise#side note but damn…Leo saves them from punishment in the tot short and immediately gets jumped 😔#but yeah man I think a Lot about the little dynamics between the bros and how those dynamics could have first came into being#Leo being the face of the team and having been it since childhood-#-makes all the moments of immediately choosing to sacrifice himself when HE royally messes up all the more notable#if it’s one bro or the whole group individually he’s more chill about it but often still lets himself be the talker to get them out of it#he will do his damndest to get his brothers and himself out of trouble but once they’re in it he’s in the front with a smile#his own safety be damned#Raph is actually the same in that respect - he’ll jump into danger fists first but all bets are off when a brother is in danger#and like how Leo’s been the face - as the eldest Raph has been the de facto leader of sorts#he’s the one who is shown to make up their games! and I think that’s very cute#anyway their clashing in the movie is so interesting for a lot of reasons but one of them is that it shows how-#-even a longstanding dynamic like Raph and Leo’s that’s WORKED for so long is still susceptible to flaws…and to time

hermann thoughts: if i discredit newton and his approach enough, the martial won't give him the equipment for his kaiju drift, and i can protect him from himself. if he despises me for it, so be it. there is little i wouldn't sacrifice to see him safe.
newt thoughts: this is a Best Science competition and i have to Win
#unscientific aside#newmann#pacific rim#thinking about them again today#it's very easy to read hermann's animosity during the movie as him being pissed off at newt for his 'completely crazy'#theories getting attention + being a massive nuisance in general#that's exactly what it looks like if you just listen to WHAT he's saying#however if you pay attention to WHEN he says it & pay attention to his face when no one is looking it's very clear there's more going on im#like the kaiju entrails comment. newt has all these tables with guts set up right next to the line & has clearly been working there for age#theres a big pile of intestinal-looking tubes over on hermann's side of the floor already! not a peep from hermann!#but then when newt tries to join the conversation he happens to throw another little squidgy bit & suddenly hermann jumps on him about it#brings up in front of the marshall how CONSTANT this unprofessional conduct is while also cutting newt off#he physically puts himself between newt & pentecost#interrupts newt every time he tries to talk#starts making snarky little personal comments AT newt to discourage him - 'don't embarrass yourself' 'yes [just get to the point]'#'this is the point where he goes completely crazy' [significant look at newt]#keeps hovering in the background looking between newt & pentecost#like. ok he is SO MAD that newt is getting pentecost's attention here. obviously#the thing that does it for me though is how sad and resigned he looks when newt finally does get to the point#this is not the face of an angry rival#this is the face of a man with ulterior motives for his animosity#i dont think newt has any ulterior motives hes aware of lol he thinks hes in a movie about 2 geniuses vying for scientific superiority#happens to be in love with hermann but hasnt realized because hes so mad at him all the time#he only realizes how much hermann cares when he offers to drift with him

honestlyyyyy the ninjago merge desperately freaking needed to happen bc ninjago as a society was wayyy too perfectly divided into remote little pockets where different cultures and species rarely if ever met and interacted healthily. This is one of those reasons why I hope my theory that the realms were originally one and were split on purpose is correct - because the world's structure itself only makes sense if there was considerable, conscious effort put into keeping people divided and isolated from each other, on a false pretense of securing peace.
#like i know in part this was just a symptom of needing obvious villain species in the toyline#and later with the various peoples wildbrain introduced it was just bc they needed to liek. condense them into individual season plots#which didn't really interact much with each other#but i think even then it makes perfect meta sense as to why DR - with its very interconnected season structure -#would choose the merge as its jumping off point#it works on both levels which i appreciate i just hope to GOD im right

What is Rayman? Well, he's a thingamajig. Next question.
(I got attached to my Betilla design)
#rayman#betilla#rayman murfy#this goes into my headcanons a bit#i like the idea that not only was rayman the first limbless creature#but that his limbless-ness was a mistake#this does mean retconning a lot of character designs from rayman 1 but that's kind of what the series did post-origins anyway#every other thingamajig after him was dreamed up by polokus at some point maybe?#'cause once rayman existed he sort of became the jumping-off point for more dreams of thingamajigs#this series' continuity is so all-over-the-place literally anything goes#i hope my non-rayman followers are prepared for more because it ain't stopping#my brain has had such a firm grasp on this series for over a month now#and i don't understand why#but i'm having fun with it and that's all that matters

I feel like people rarely talk about how Yoosung WAS being gaslit about Rika’s death when he knew something was wrong and everyone consistently said he was paranoid when he WASN’T. He was never allowed the chance to properly grieve and air out his (correct) issues with V and the shit surrounding Rika’s “death” until MC joins the RFA.
#the tragedy of Yoosung’s character is something I can discuss for hours#like I will defend him and his route with my life#do I block people who misinterpret his route as ‘heehoo you’re my dead cousin now.’ ?#yes#do I feel bad?#not at all#perish you illiterate fucks#that last part was a joke so dont jump me losers#yoosung kim#yoosung kim my beloved#leave him alone he has MDD#just like me fr#can’t convince me that if MC didn’t join the RFA he was gonna off himself at some point#GET HIM INTO THERAPY NOWW!!

you're all tarted up and you don't look the same but it just gets worse [1] [2] [3] [4]
#this has been living in my brain for a while now#and i've listened to the clips so much and watched so many videos that now it all kinda sounds the same#but he gradually developed a growl on 'you're all' and it makes me giggle#he even got himself in the last one because it's so unhinged. you can hear his lil giggle afterwards 😭#notice how ALL the footage is late sias era when he really started leaning into hyping up the crowd and showboating a bit more.#there was a whole lotta pointing 🫵 and jumping off shit#i think it was also opening for the 'black keys' that the band had to work to 'win' the crowd over and he said he liked the challenge.#ANYWAYS. 'still take you home' will forever remain a banger#AND the transition from 'this house is a circus' into 'still take you home' will forever be a favourite#alex turner#arctic monkeys#sias era#arctic monkeys edit#still take you home#mine#daddy-long-legssss

Been on a transformers kick lately and for some reason it’s been primarily focused on the bayverse version of them (aka the really bad live action movies). Anyways I decided to redraw some of the decepticons (the movie did them mad dirty) and it Immediately got out of hand and now I have an AU version that’s basically a mashup of G1 and bayverse. Enjoy my insanity.
(Also third image is just g1 I just decided to put it in here too) (also enjoy how you can see how quickly I went from “semi-accurate to source” to “my design now” via shockwave and soundwave)
Also here’s some shitty phone doodle comics bc those are quick and free and fun to make
This one in particular is from the Netflix exclusive transformers game (think Marvel Contest of Champions type of game, aka 1v1 beat-em up). Specifically in the fact as Optimus Prime I ran Circles around an enemy Ratchet (didn’t get hit once) and killed him with a single gun shot before he could actually hit me
Anyways, here’s some extra Yautja related stuff I have just free floating, specifically in that I made a lil dumb what-if AU of if we were still playing as a Yautja in the Marine campaign of Aliens v Predator (plus a funny happenstance)
#my art#transformers#transformers bayverse#bayverse transformers#shockwave#soundwave#starscream#g1 transformers#Bay-1 AU#that’s what ima call it for now#transformers forged to fight#that’s the Netflix game#aliens vs predator#aliens vs predator game#aliens vs predator 2010#avp tequila#avp#avp 2010#Yautja#ngl bay-1 is likely gonna have the lifespan of a may fly#aka I Will forget about this AU in a couple of weeks once I’m off this kick#feel free to yell at me in anon if you want more I guess#also yea. I made shockwave bull-esq#funny to me#may draw more transformers in future#like big mecha but idk how to draw em#so transformers is a good jumping point
