I wouldn't want this to happen in the actual movie but I would love a 28 years later parody that's about people just kind of chilling in Brazil which is totally fine and free of zombies
#africa is also probably mostly fine#like yeah the whole continent#even if they can eat and drink now there's a lot of mountains desert and bodies of water to cross to get from Europe into Africa#and very few fresh disease vectors#still if i was in like Egypt especially id get out of dodge#yeah the infected are fast zombies but they're still on foot at the end of the day#I hear anywhere not connected to the afro eurasian continent is lovely this time of year -someone at the end of 28 weeks later#there was like a comic or something where selena left for america after the initial outbreak and like#smart move#even if the US somehow infected north america#which you know#good luck flying a plane across the atlantic while youre a zombie#everything south of panama would be completely fine

"People argue the anthropocene started in the Industrial Revolution but I am super brave and argue it started in 1492" hey I don't work here but has anyone considered that perhaps humans have first become a major force in changing the planet when we invented agriculture because we like completely changed the way plants and animals look, work and where they are distributed and like totally killed off several species before we even figured out writing. I'm pretty sure that already had a pretty big impact on the ecosystem. Ask the mammoth about it. Or brussel sprouts.
#like yeah our impact has grown exponentially since using fossil fuels and causing climate change#but lets not forget how everything we eat today has been selectively bred over thousands of years#the domestication of the horse and its spread over different continents alone was probably already a whole thing for the environment

Though there seems no continuation plans for that DP comic you just dropped, would you be willing to share any storyline? I’m INVESTED 👀❤️
Oh god its kills me how I want to draw the whole thing out, and maybe one day? But honestly I don't think it will happen any time soon if at all soooo...
The story is that between the first and second page, Danny is unknowingly dipped into another dimension where instead of going thru the portal w/ Sam and Tucker behind him, he went in alone. This alternate version of him didn't tell anyone about his powers and after the first fight he had he decided he was too much of a risk and ran away. Thus Sam and Tucker telling *our* Danny he's been missing for two years. (so theyre 16 here)
The comic would cover Danny trying to pass as this other Danny, him meeting the other Danny, and trying to get back to his dimension. Its suppose to be very touching and heartfelt yada yada I have the first chapter sketched out but its like 20 pages and he hasn't even met the other danny yet 😭
This is the title part I made. The name comes from a twilight zone episode that I thought fit rlly well. I've also posted a lot of concept art like floor plans and shit cuz I *needs* that stuff when I'm making comics.
also had another comic idea that I'll never get to where a villain starts turning ghosts into horrible monster creatures and Danny gets turned into one, which is suppose to be much spookier but still fun.
I'm gonna give myself some more time to see how feasible it would be to make the comics and if not I will probs shit out all my brain splatters about it onto tumblr :p Thank you so much for asking about it 🥺👉👈
#it would be suuuch a long comic i think and i would at least want to have it all sorta sketched out before i made any major commitments#the only comic i've ever done is my short what we do in the shadows comic#which was much shorter and done in a lot simpler style#i appreciate the interest so fucking much tho holy hell thats def gonna give me the juice needed to look everything over again#i would want to see the two dannys interacting in the comic as well as sam and tuck interacting with both#a few shenangians where the two dannys have to continously swap places so theres not two dannys in the same place at once#theres a part i was thinking of where our danny is like holy shit youve been in the woods for two years you never got top surgery#and the other one is like YOU GOT TOP SURGERY?? HELL YEAH#also want to mess around with Vlad and ofc clockwork is there because the whole dimension-y shenanigans are up his alley#also i just love clockwork#asks#dupree

Recent game related things .. hrmm...
#I do like the inconsistency of the first map. that is actually something older but that I re-found and added to my Game Reference stuff#so that when characters reference where they're from I can be accurate. I like that the whole map is kind of shifted up that way. Where the#actual south part doesnt even count as the south since its Too Far and Scary lol. and if you say you're from 'the north' thats basically#like.. one single continent. Though some people do make distinctions like 'north midlands' or etc. still. I like the ways that common#language isn't always precisely accurate like that. and thinking about why a culture would classify things a certain way or etc. etc.#The inventory page is so funny to me because it's literally just the BASe like.. sample layout just to make sure it works properly with 0#actual design into it. just colored rectangles thrown together in MS paint. but what if I like... left it like that.. what if all the other#art in the game and UI is like stylized and fully matching BUT the inventory/journal/etc. screens I just left as plain colored blocks#with random misalignments and black spots and etc gjhbhjj... It looks unfinished in a Funny Contrast way to me.#the wordcounts are just like... my past few days of writing.. I am still not getting 2200 words a day done or whatever I needed. I'm lucky#if it's even half of that .... tee hee.. :3c I do also keep having appointments and other things going on but..grrr...#The full map of the area is probably not necessary but I thought it would be more realisitc if people were able to reference things. Like i#you have people all living in a city area probably at some point someone might mention a neighboring city or some landmark nearby#or etc. so I thought having at least the basic names of what's around for reference would be sensible. A side character mentioning#'oh yeah I don't live here full time I just travel from Marisene sometimes' or whatever makes it seem more like a Real#Fleshed Out Place than people just making vague references like 'the river' or 'i come from a city nearby' or 'i went to a place somewhere#around here' or 'the other city' or etc. lol.. Especially since global cities/global areas are weird as they operate almost like an#independent country within their walls. so it's like a micro country inside of another country usually. just plopped down in some agreed#upon plot of land that won't be too disruptive to the main country around it. That could get very complex depending on the cultural and#political backdrop of where they're placed (though obviously they try to choose the 'easiest' areas possible for it). Asen is a very mild#country without much history of conflict or anything so it's fine. But still interesting that Sifeh and the entire branched out global area#border three other districts of Asen. Which means like 3 times the local representitives you'l have to negotiate with for some major change#or anything. I think one of the 'random characters you can find around the world and have short discussions with just to make the area#feel more populated and real even though theyre not actual important npcs' is going to be a guy who actually serves on the council that#handles running the global areas and he's like.. some perpetually exhausted middle aged elf running around with a clipboard or whatever#ANYWAY...... hrgh... still trying to write when I can....#I WISH so badly that I had the scope for a simple character creation menu and all character interactions would allot for the background#of your player character. And also to have a simple day night cycle where places in the world you explore/people you talk to during the day#have new options or dialogue at night.. BUT alas... I already am so behind on everything as is lol.. aughhh... T o T#As the worlds number one Needless Detail And Complexity Enjoyer i must dilligently prevent myself from adding additional complexity

I have the opportunity to spend a month in Michigan this autumn and that should be an easy decision (go! especially before I have more responsibilities) but it’s not
#I mean. the person I'm dating rn is from there and a big thing is us deciding that we want to try to make this work#and given that we're both very sad at the thought of things changing from how they are now we do want to try#but god Michigan is so far away#and in a car dependent country. and I can't drive. and do not want to be dependent on them or their family#but also this is quite the opportunity.. I'd get to see Detroit and Ann Arbor and Chicago and Toronto.. lakes...#it's a whole other continent that I've never been to like of course that would be exciting#but deciding to go feels so. definite. it's a real commitment to this relationship#a relationship which is making me happy but yeah. of course I still miss my ex we were together for more than half a decade#and I'm still just pained by him never working on himself because things could've been okay I think#hmmmm anyway. much to think about.

Hi hello hope you're well! Could you possibly tell me more about your nano wip Pirates? 👀
yes!! i could!!
well, firstly, as you can see, i don't have a title for it...so that's why it's just called 'pirates' for now. this wip is set in a fantasy universe where the earth, sea, and sky were created from the bodies of the great gods (not as gruesome as it sounds, but i love a good sacrifice/creation by dismemberment cosmogony. thank you mythology literature class i took over the summer). magic is therefore insinuated into nature itself; some are born with the ability to access it, while some can't (i.e some people have magic, some are Just Normal).
now, these great gods each have a Heart that was/is basically their magical core. whoever possesses these Hearts will have infinite power, etc; you know, the usual. there are two Hearts considered to be hidden in the actual world, the Stone Heart and the Star Heart. the Stone Heart is split into four pieces, presumably, two of which are with the overarching religious organization of the world, the All Seas Assembly (ASA), and the other two which are lost. the Star Heart has never been seen/found, and is the end goal of one of the wip's main protagonists, arete. arete's mother was a famous pirate on the quest to find the Star Heart, which she ultimately failed at. before passing, she magically imprinted a map onto arete's skin that would lead her to the Star Heart.
arete is ten when her mom dies, and manages to escape the destruction of their ship by being sent out to sea. she ends up on the island of caelus, near the village of kynohue, where akane lives with her mother. akane is our other protagonist, despite the fact that she'll be missing from much of the actual story. her father was killed by pirates after standing up to a crew who attacked their village, and so akane's life has not been great lately either. kynohue is now a tributary village that has to pay to the pirates monthly/quarterly in order to live.
the story as i conceptualize it now has at least two arcs. well, technically three if you count the pre-actual written story arc involving arete's mother, iriyin. the arc i'm working on for nanowrimo is an arc that covers arete and akane's life together in kynohue (with akane's mother, emi), which lasts for around five years (it won't be entirely sequential; there's mostly the beginning, scattered scenes showing growth and the passage of time, and then the end, but i'm still at the beginning if that makes sense). after those five years, when arete is fifteen and akane fourteen, they get separated after the village is attacked by the pirates, though not before making a promise to meet again one day.
after that, there's a six year time skip, and the story will pick up again with arete, now twenty-one, truly beginning to build her crew. her end goal has always been fulfilling her mother's wishes (which she is magically obliged to as well) and finding the Star Heart, but there's of course a lot of ocean to explore and other side routes to take before them. she's also waiting to reunite with akane as well; the two have no idea where the other is in the world, or if they're even alive. i've got a ton of cool characters in planning stages for their actual crew (a deaf swordsman, a miracle doctor, a navigator with a perfect sense of direction on a quest to find her brother, assassins, etc), but for nano i decided to focus on the first arc because that's what is solid in my head. not sure how much will actually make it into the main wip, but it's been ok so far.
alright, i hope this all made sense! there's a ton more worldbuilding behind the scenes, but these are the key conceptual details you need to know. thank you for your interest!
#asks and answers#.txt#lovely mutuals#kaatiba#wip: pirates#the magic system is a whole thing and so is the asa and also the great gods#i have those creation myths down.#also there are six seas ; three major continents ; and then several smaller island groupings throughout#i actually don't know what arete gets up to in those six years :cryingemoji: but i'm working on that right now#akane on the other hand...suffers and all that#also there are other pirate crews and such that are in my head that i love#such as bonny niamh who is a wind witch and dresses like a victorian belle#and more. etc etc. lots of girls dressing like guys for some reason (there's a commentary on gender if i ever fit it in)#oh yeah. and akane has super strength (??? not exactly but that's the closest way to describe it)

Nnnnnnng. Normal Friday listening podcast is doing an episode on Secret Mark and idk if I can bring myself to listen.
#fucking Morton smith#by sheer coincidence he’s the one who wrote the translation for PGM XIII for Betz’ volume of translations of the PGM#and his commentary is obnoxious#and useless#and there’s a new volume with a new commentary (the fucking first since his)#coming out ‘soon’. soon. how soon? I DONT KNOW#not soon enough. like please just publish it or I am gonna be stuck here like ‘so yeah there’s a whole new commentary on this coming out…’#‘which I couldn’t access and I guess could make everything I’m about to say bs or irrelevant or something. NBD.’#also obviously Secret Mark was on my to do list and still is#AND a new book came out about THAT this year (or maybe last year) too#and last time I checked LITERALLY NO LIBRARY ON THIS CONTINENT HAD A COPY#they were all in America#and no online copies#what’s interesting though is that from an interview with the authors#one of their arguments for why Morton Smith couldn’t have forged it is basically ‘he was not good enough at greek to do that’#but good enough to translate PGM XIII which like. is not easy Greek!#and I haven’t seen anyone trashing his actual translation

I was actually studying for once and this part bothered me so much so I'm using hetalia to express my frustration
Rough translation
"The Portuguese discovered the cape of good hope in 1498 and switched their trade ships to it instead of passing by Egypt"
#the cape of good hope is like the name of the direction they used#the going around Africa direction#the name is really weird in English#anyways yeah#mfs would literally rather go around a whole continent than come in contact with Egypt#hetalia#aph egypt#hws egypt#blue's doodles

Sci-fi worldbuilding is like a thing that really hates you and wants you dead
#because you have to like. find ways in which it makes sense for our world to end up like that#like with paranormal i dont give a shit. yeah this is the 80s there are ghosts and this 8 years old girl is god and the devil#whos gonna raise their hand and ask me why there are ghosts in the 80s? would it make more sense for you if they were in 2010s?#yeah thats what i thought shitlips. i can go 'yes so anyway as i was saying you can only reach the afterlife if the person responsible#for your death is dead and the object tying you to this plane is destroyed. if one of these conditions isnt met you cannot go on.'#and literally nobody can say shit. we can argue about the internal logic but nobody can pull up a fucking;;;;economics book and go#'welll ummmm actually going by the studies done by Random Fucker and The Other Guy the situation in the year of who-fucking-cares#would be ZZZZ instead'#same goes for fantasy and speculative biology that are completely divorced from our world#yes we can sit here and argue about how exactly the sex of these beings would work but you cant say shit to me just saying#'the continents look like this; there are this many races; they looks like X Y and Z'#if i want to bring a whole new fucking kind of being into a sci-fi world; it becomes difficult#and most of all always runs the real risks of making the whole thing...too whimsical. too comical.#we dont find elves comical in a fantasy setting we just accept them there but if you said 'yes this is our world but the future and#everything is the same just more technologically advanced but of course this is beneficial only to the upper class;#the banality of evil is at play here and nothing too interesting is to be seen; just the same old shit. also there are elves.'#suddenly everyone would care only about the elves and theyd feel odd and out of place and everyone would be asking 'how'#i dont want to include elves i just used them as an example

How I enjoy adaptations!
Hey you! Yeah, you! Have you ever been afraid to watch, listen or read an adaptation of a media you are familiar with? Say, maybe, the Great Gatsby musical for fans of the book? Or perhaps the One Piece live action? Well don't worry cause I struggle with that too!
My solution to still enjoying the media adaptation without looking for bits to catch it out on (which we do subconsciously)(holding out on complaints till the end, at least), is to first experience it with the mindset that it is something completely different. Separate it from the source material for as long as possible. Then, once you're done with the [movie, book, song, show, whatever], review it and moments that stood out to you. Then you can start to pick it apart as much as you like!
I love to do this because it allows me to view the appeal of the adaptation from the perspective of both someone who has never interacted with the source material and as someone who knows it like the back of their hand! Then you can make your complaints, but still have the backup understanding from an independent media standpoint (if thats the proper way to phrase it?) of why these changes or cuts were made.
Does this work for everyone? Not at all! Can I guarantee this technique will even work for 5 seconds into the media? Never! But it is worth a shot. Even if I change my opinion on the media after reflection, I still enjoyed the experience of watching or listening or whatever-ing that media!
#media things#is this anything?#also like youre allowed to complain idgaf this is just what stops me from complaining the whole entire time lmfao#this helped me power through the POTO movie#cos bro if i watched it continously being 'yeah no'#i never would've enjoyed it from an objective standpoint#i think in summary#the best way to put this is that it kinda helps you fully enjoy it without constantly comparing#or enjoy it the most possible#maximizing happy juices

I really hope the rest of the Mighty Nein are involved with this solstice stuff because they could add a lot more nuance to this god stuff
#personal#how many tags until it doesn't show up in main tags?#its like five or something#or it used to be#the only one of m9 with a link to organised religion is caduceus and the blooming grove isn't exactly a major place of pilgrimage#and the wildmother is banned in a huge chunk of the continent anyway#the middle bit. the bit that the others would have to walk through to get to the greying wildlands#what have the gods ever done for us? well they saved yasha from a cult which very nearly broke THE CHAINED OBLIVION out#as in an entity that wants to rip existence apart until it's nothing but chaos and emptiness#which would put a massive damper on ordinary people's lives#they saved fjord from another cult which wanted to bring back an ocean demigod who would drown as much of the world as it could#again not good for the ordinary folk who want to live their lives#and those are the accidentally religious#caduceus's whole family worship the wildmother and have protected a small part of the savalir wood from the encroaching corruption#of molaesmyr ie the hubris of MORTALS (yeah yeah yeah one mortal in particular)#they would not have been able to stop cognouza (hey look some more powerhungry mortals) from conquering the material plane without caduceus#and his visions#and jester. well jester was a lonely little girl and she believed so hard in her best friend that he became a demigod#she knows the gods are powerful and fickle and loving and terrifying and maybe theyre not always there when you need them most#but that doesnt mean they are never there#it's a world in which the gods absolutely exist#i would not want them interfering in my life#what have the gods ever done for us. why would you want them to do anything? theyre gods!#if they actually did something for you it would mean youre important enough to get their attention#nd if youre important enough to get their attention then other things are going to be looking at you as well#orym's right#the problem lies with the followers. not the gods themselves#ok i should be safe to tag now. after my rant. for my own blog archive and no other reason#i will also make this unrebloggable because i dont want discourze. this my opinion. i don't want to argue with anyone#critrole

This man burns the sheets when he cums. Especially if you're riding him, his head thrown back, tight grip on the soaked sheets as he whimpers... hands always moving. He can never keep still when he's about to cum, especially if you're overstimulating his cock, continously pulling orgasm after orgasm out of him. He panting like dehydrated dog, running his hands over your thighs, slapping your ass, playing with your pretty tits. He just can't. keep. still. So in turn, anytime he tries too touch you, you bat his hands away, so now his only hold on reality is the ruined sheets, pulling so harshly they start to tear at the seams, and that's when you smell it. Burnt cloth filling your lungs as you catch blue flames in the corner of your eyes.
He's shaking, body convulsing as he whines. Thighs shaking as the sheets start to burn, back arching while his eyes roll back. Pleasding for you too keep going, let him fill you up again, tight, wet cunt squeezing him for everything he's worth. Your nails scratching nasty, red marks down his chest. Sweaty strands of white hair sticking to his forehead as cerulean eyes stare up at you, onyx swallowing the blue whole.
"Please baby... fuckkk- keep going, yeah, yeah- just like that. Tightest fucking cunt, you want my cum so bad, don't you slut, huh?... mmhm shit." And of course, "sorry for the sheets babe, I'll buy you new ones pretty girl."
@dabislittlemouse I keep reading and re-reading your "riding dabi" post. He's so fucking pretty, also I feel like he gets tired from over-using his quirk so he'll have you ride him quite often.

Dracula Declarations of Love
There is so much love, and so much talk of love, in this book. It's extremely hard to pick a favorite, but let's give it a go (or just get emotional over a bunch of quotes lined up together).
I tried to stick mostly to declarations/talk about (rather than acts of) love, primarily to focus on specific quotes and help me narrow it down to just twelve (still a big challenge). Before anyone asks, no, "I too can love" is not on here because Dracula's version of love doesn't stack up to the others for me in terms of emotional impact. And these were definitely chosen by my personal preference of specific quotes; there are a bunch of other great words of love that didn't make it in. Also, important note - this is not exclusively romantic love by any means.
The whole quotes don't fit in the poll, so please read below before you vote.
Full Quotes:
11 May, Lucy: "Oh, Mina, couldn't you guess? I love him. I am blushing as I write, for although I think he loves me, he has not told me so in words. But oh, Mina, I love him; I love him; I love him!"
24 May, Quincey: "If that other fellow doesn't know his happiness, well, he'd better look for it soon, or he'll have to deal with me. Little girl, your honesty and pluck have made me a friend, and that's rarer than a lover; it's more unselfish anyhow."
19 August, Mina: "I have cried over the good Sister's letter till I can feel it wet against my bosom, where it lies. It is of Jonathan, and must be next my heart, for he is in my heart. [...] I must write no more; I must keep it to say to Jonathan, my husband. The letter that he has seen and touched must comfort me till we meet."
24 August, Jonathan and Mina: "Then he took my hand in his, and oh, Lucy, it was the first time he took his wife's hand, and said that it was the dearest thing in all the wide world, and that he would go through all the past again to win it, if need be. [...] Well, my dear, what could I say? I could only tell him that I was the happiest woman in all the wide world, and that I had nothing to give him except myself, my life, and my trust, and that with these went my love and duty for all the days of my life."
24 August, Mina: "Lucy dear, do you know why I tell you all this? It is not only because it is all sweet to me, but because you have been, and are, very dear to me. It was my privilege to be your friend and guide when you came from the schoolroom to prepare for the world of life. I want you to see now, and with the eyes of a very happy wife, whither duty has led me; so that in your own married life you too may be all happy as I am. My dear, please Almighty God, your life may be all it promises: a long day of sunshine, with no harsh wind, no forgetting duty, no distrust. I must not wish you no pain, for that can never be; but I do hope you will be always as happy as I am now."
7 September, Arthur: '"What can I do?" asked Arthur hoarsely. "Tell me, and I shall do it. My life is hers, and I would give the last drop of blood in my body for her."'
17 September, Mina: "Jonathan asks me to send his 'respectful duty,' but I do not think that is good enough from the junior partner of the important firm Hawkins & Harker; and so, as you love me, and he loves me, and I love you with all the moods and tenses of the verb, I send you simply his 'love' instead."
30 September, Mina and Arthur: '"I loved dear Lucy, and I know what she was to you, and what you were to her. She and I were like sisters; and now she is gone, will you not let me be like a sister to you in your trouble? I know what sorrows you have had, though I cannot measure the depth of them. If sympathy and pity can help in your affliction, won't you let me be of some little service—for Lucy's sake?" [...] "I know now how I suffered," he said, as he dried his eyes, "but I do not know even yet—and none other can ever know—how much your sweet sympathy has been to me to-day. I shall know better in time; and believe me that, though I am not ungrateful now, my gratitude will grow with my understanding. You will let me be like a brother, will you not, for all our lives—for dear Lucy's sake?"'
3 October, Jonathan: '"Nonsense, Mina. It is a shame to me to hear such a word [unclean]. I would not hear it of you; and I shall not hear it from you. May God judge me by my deserts, and punish me with more bitter suffering than even this hour, if by any act or will of mine anything ever come between us!" He put out his arms and folded her to his breast; and for a while she lay there sobbing."
3 October, Jonathan: "To one thing I have made up my mind: if we find out that Mina must be a vampire in the end, then she shall not go into that unknown and terrible land alone. I suppose it is thus that in old times one vampire meant many; just as their hideous bodies could only rest in sacred earth, so the holiest love was the recruiting sergeant for their ghastly ranks."
11 October, Mina: "You are nearest and dearest and all the world to me; our souls are knit into one, for all life and all time."
31 October, Mina: "We are truly in the hands of God. He alone knows what may be, and I pray Him, with all the strength of my sad and humble soul, that He will watch over my beloved husband; that whatever may happen, Jonathan may know that I loved him and honoured him more than I can say, and that my latest and truest thought will be always for him."
#yeah YEAH#I could not articulate something similar I wanted to before this sums it up much better#the very things he tried to preserve! he'd risk losing. even now that he knows the wound of their severence#and he knows what it means!#even if he's now not able to diffinerate between madness and sanity#or asleep or awake (him saying that... he can't be sure when he's asleep anymore)#it's like that lotr passage about walking to the darkness only after knowning what it is#her hand is the most precious thing in the whole wide world. it's worth it#and i love the mutuality of their devotion because she goes as hard with traveling across the continent nonstop to pick up the pieces#and choosing to do it despite her having no social obligation to#after spending a month nursing her sick friend too#he's trapped in his own hell and she's calling for a priest to face it in each others' arms#...i didn't mean to essay apologies!#dracula#polls
