Mourning Cloak is a normal mech that nothing bad could happen to "If you roll the same number on all three dice, you disappear until your group rests, at which point you reappear nearby."
WHERE DID THEY GO
#lancer#lancer rpg#lancer ttrpg#making mechs is a joy#could spend hours on compcon#i have moments were my little story breaks pretty far from the lancer universe#but then the mechs are just- lancer mechs expect for a few Real Unique ones that are like- you meet One somewhat early and the rest...#rn only move if like a Bad Ending happens#which i have drawn cuz its Pretty but- death

I beat Veilguard.
It's 4am. I'm a mess. I'm in tears.
#datv spoilers#the moment that completely broke me#''Ich entlasse Euch aus meinen Diensten''#Ar lasa mala revas#you are free#and so am I.. I feel like I've ascended from Solavellan Hell to Solavellan Heaven after ten flippin years#I think an embrace would have hit me even harder than a kiss at the end.. but it was just done so beautifully#I've always had one wish for Solas' story regardless of all the speculation and theories made over the years#and that was for him to find peace#so these are mostly tears of joy#I'm too overwhelmed to find the right words now#this game had many glaring problems to me but I still had a great time and there are many things to love#and maybe I mourn the potential of what could have been#the Veil still being up is.... very unexpected to say the least?#but Act 3 was incredible and god did that ending hit all the right spots for me#it's so strange to say ''goodbye'' to a character that you've been thinking about for so long#but I'm so thankful to have closure now#my heart is full#you know what's crazy?#right after that final cutscene ended I saw that it had actually started to snow outside for the first time this season#snow symbolizes purity or something right?#and that just made me think of how Solas used to envy Sera for her purity of purpose that he lacked#I like to think he regained it now#thinking about a little Wisdom spirit#hmm#I don't think I can sleep now#I think I'll just watch the snow a little more

i've seen a fair bit of... pessimism about dorym lately, esp with the ep107, for example wondering if dorian's opposing views on the gods making orym fall out of love, and i have to say. i very highly doubt it, ur fr talking about the man who has held on to will for so long, holding onto will's family and affectionately calling this *his* family too because that didn't stop when will died. i dont think falling out of love is an option or even a thought to orym.
that said, we know that orym has contingencies for if anyone in bells hells crosses the line into being a version of themselves they would despise, for anyone who jeopardizes their mission. his mission. i think, for the first time since knowing dorian, orym finally has a contingency for him. the longer dorian is back, the more orym sees how scarred he is by what's happened (understandable so) and knows that dorian is with bells hells all the way. but if he isn't...
#lynx speaks#critical role spoilers#cr spoilers#dorym#dorian x orym#i'll be so fr i hardly interact with the cr fandom at large bc soooooo many people are deeply pessimistic#i want to have fun!!!!! i AM having fun#and then i come here and see the most bad faith takes in all of the world ever and its disheartening!#where's ur fucken JOY where's ur fucken WHIMSY#bells hells is one of the wackiest groups with crazy dynamics between them all and its enjoyable!#ur Allowed to enjoy the things u watch i prommy#and to that point! people keep complaining that bells hells r indecisive and there r too many opposing views muddying things etc etc#1. ofc there r a lot of views. the real world is like that too. opposing views is one of the best story elements to enrich ur made up world#2. whenever there is a Big Decisive moment many instantly go 'noooooo not like that!!! that's not what *i*wanted' (ex: the shard.)#the cast receiving backlash from fans every time they r decisive and do something objectively fucken cool and interesting#means that any time they Think about doing a Big Thing... it gets a little harder bc what if the fans hate it. again. should i even do this#separating fandom from cast is a bit more difficult for this form of media and the inherent close proximity or creators to audience#so. just. maybe some of us could chill and cool off just a little. and maybe examine why This Thing is so terrible to u. and remember.#it may be terrible to *u* but thats where it stops. the specific bad feelings u have r not always indicative of media being Bad.#sometimes it's just not ur cup of tea and i PROMMY that its okay if its not

every once in a while someone who only knows me & my poetry via tumblr osmosis and/or my more recent works instead of the 2014 stucky days discovers that it is not actually an accident that many of my poems from that era are so stucky coded
and it always brings me a lot of delight
#sylvie speaks#most of it is slanted and deliberately vague to varying degrees#and. to be crystal clear. i do not need people to recognize it as stucky coded#i am honestly and genuinely delighted whenever and however people find meaning from my poetry#stucky or not. blorbo or non-blorbo#but it feels like a little bit of a whimsical spiderman pointing meme moment#same hat!!!#here is what i held in my heart as i wrote#and you recognized it!!#this post brought to you by a tag journey i saw in my notes today#that gave me a big old smile#a while ago someone else discovered that one of my most popular poems#(either you love him or please let him be soft i can't actually remember which)#was also stucky coded from the start#much joy in the discovery

I was personally assaulted (honorific) by this essay on ambition. It's very good.
#megs is reading#I would've linked it as a full link but it didn't parse right. which probably means it has some settings against AI which. good for them!#hilariously I was complaining immediately before reading it that SO MUCH of the discussion around burnout and overwork are like#'well you should train yourself to enjoy things and live in the moment and say fuck work and not worry about it making you more productive!#and like. as a writer. as a person whose brain will eat itself alive if I do not write. NOT because augh productivity#but cuz [that one post about how if you don't draw the images will clog up inside you and make you sick]#this does not ever spark joy. I want to do the work I enjoy and find fulfilling! I want that work to be valued enough to let me do it!#where is my discussion around burnout for people who like. can in fact sit down and enjoy a nice cup of tea or cooking a pot of soup#that's not the goddamn problem here. the problem is that not all labor is valued and in fact very little labor if any is valued.#the products are labor are valued. the labor itself is an inconvenient stepping stone that it would be nice to not have to take.#ANYWAY I'm just going to go try to finish my fucking book draft now. and convince myself that it matters.

not enough words in the English language to explain how much I need him right this second
#COME TO MY ARMS BELOVED#let us put all other joys to shame#do you ever lose it because maximus is not only the most honorable kind intelligent devoted man of all time but also the most handsome???#like it's not enough that he's good and noble#he's also got a face and body sculpted by the gods above???#on the day maximus was born the gods spent hours debating over how perfect one human being was allowed to be#and in the end they decided he could be as perfect as possible#just so i could suffer!!! with not having him!!!!#his shoulder looks so biteable here#just give me a little chomp please#and by chomp i mean let me fall on my knees and kiss it repeatedly for hours#he looks SO GOOD in this armor#he always looks flawless but something about this armor#the blue tunic with the dark leather straps#that buckle is driving me crazy#thinking about slowly taking that armor off piece by piece until it's vaguely scattered across my bedroom floor#this would be an unflattering angle for some people but SIKE maximus has no unflattering angles#love the resolved look on his face like “no one talk to me i'm in the zone”#i'll tell him what zone he can get in if he wants ANYTIME#just!!! let me have him please!!!#just let me hold his sweet face and rest my head on his shoulder and fall asleep in his arms#let me spend my whole life loving and cherishing him#no one in the movie understood how much a man like this should be treasured like the precious jewel that he is#consider him treasured#every single day all day every moment#treasured and beloved and precious and dear to my heart until the day it stops beating#gladiator#maximus#maximus decimus meridius#gladiator 2000

Messiah of Evil (Dead People, 1974)
"Hard to remember back on things... but I - I remember the red moonlight Daddy told me about, only once. Mama gave him a bad look when he talked about it. He was only a boy himself, then. He called it the blood moon. He said that was the night that he lost religion. He learned that men could do... could do horrible things... like animals."
#messiah of evil#blood tw#dead people#the second coming#and a dozen other titles on various reissues and rereleases#willard huyck#gloria katz#marianna hill#michael greer#joy bang#anitra ford#royal dano#elisha cook jr.#charles dierkop#bennie robinson#morgan fisher#walter hill#phillan bishop#american cinema#1974#shot in 71 but not widely released until 74‚ this seems to have slipped into relative obscurity until a gradual reappraisal began in the#last couple of years; rarely was a film more deserving of a second chance bc this is something close to masterpiece. a beautifully original#highly enigmatic nightmare of a film‚ a slow build of dread to an unexpectedly apocalyptic conclusion as one woman's search for her missing#artist father brings her into contact with an insular and terribly twisted community. the details of the plot are left a little sketchy in#the final product but i think that actually suits the vibe better; there's enough hints and suggestions that a viewer can begin to draw#their own conclusions without having the precise nature of the evil spoonfed to them (in fact i even think they could have eased back on#the exposition in the final act a little). some amazing setpieces here too‚ including the grocery store attack which is quite genuinely a#Moment of all time horror cinema. amazing discordant electronic score too‚ it just all fits together wonderfully#the most european feeling American horror film ever made fr fr#feels almost like it's referencing Rollin and later Romero and a dozen others except this came first baby. it's just that smart

how do i do it though. how do i let go of the bitterness and the hardness when they kept me "okay" for so long? does it come when i finally leave? can it ever?
#babes i actually relate to the frigid angry woman more than im comfortable with but this time there's no prince coming to save her and idk#i was never beautiful but i was and am angry and capable and that's served me well but being angry is exhausting#it's a birthright i can't give to a younger sibling. it doesn't transfer.#i dont inspire devotion. there's no version of this that ends with me waltzing with a true love.#im not the type you launch a thousand ships for.#so what's left?#who am i when i have no one? when ive spent my life making *me* less to make others more? when im nothing but a useful piece of furniture.#i know God loves me! i love Him! but it's not the same. i want *people* to love me. i want to be someone that theyd fight for.#im feeling that 'women have minds and hearts but im so lonely' scene from little women 2019 so much right now.#except im not jo. my family loves me but theyd never do for me what jo's would do for her. theyre also all focused on surviving.#i feel like a military ration. there to be consumed but cast aside the moment something more palatable comes around.#how do i become consumed with joy? how do i let go of the cynicism? its all thats kept me safe! but its choking me too.#its like tony stark in iron man 2. the thing thats kept me alive this far is killing me. i need to find an alternative but its looking like#ill have to synthesize a new element to make it happen and that freaks me out.#ive always been derivative. never an individual. how do i become a trailblazer when my job was always to hold the hand of the one blazing#the trail? how do i become myself happy and free?#because i WANT to be more#i WANT to be more than anger and coldness and a useful idiot. i WANT to be me and be so so happy#but i dont know how to get there#and if someone suggests therapy im shooting you. i dont want to listen to one more person pretend to care about me and tell me#all the things i need to change and spend even longer not learning how to think for myself#i want to be more than this. but i also cant stand the thought of taking up any more space than i do#anyway.#anyone who's read all this thank you and i promise im fine im just in my feelings today lol#im going to work out and get some happy brain chemicals flowing and then ill take a shower and itll all be good.#please dont worry about me! im just having A Moment TM#lilac rambles

Random question but how many asks do u get on average? I’m asking a bunch of other blogs too
so—i'm not going to answer this question !! quite simply bc i think that, in the era we're in within our fandom and in our community and in our niche, i think that numbers have the potential to cause more grief than good, and on the off-chance that someone sees a number in our little corner here and ever uses it as a comparison to their little space—i would be devastated.
but !! i do want to take the time to say that i try to answer every ask i get with similar levels of enthusiasm, and if i haven't answered your question and you know that it sent—i am coming !!! i am on the way !!! i want to chat with you about your ideas !! but it just takes me a lil more time bc i want to make sure i'm returning the effort that you gave me 🩷 and a lot of times, i like to keep some of the sweet things yall take the time to say to me—to myself ! before i share them with everyone 🩷 so if i haven't responded yet, i'm holding your hand in mine !! and thinking of what to say 😌
#a lot of times i am also trying to figure out something to write back in response#like little multi-part things i will sometimes specifically continue in asks#like the kidnapped one !!#i have so many asks about it and i want to continue our thoughts in your messages#so i'm writing too !!#but back to the main point#the numbers game is dangerous i think !!#it has the potential to cause some joy#but i think it is ultimately fleeting#and the sadness that it can bring sticks around a lot longer 🥺#anon dear i'm not intending to use you as any example and i'm sorry if it comes across that way !!#i just wanted to use this little moment to share something related that has been on my mind a lot lately#✿ ask willow

some people are truly just miserable like. it snowed last night so everyone has been tracking in i would guess 5,000 pounds of sand and rocks with them when they enter the building maybe more and it’s just been so exhausting to deal with all night especially considering management refuses to hire an actual floor tech and my vacuum doesn’t work 75% of the time (which they also refuse to do anything about <3). anyways i finally got the back entrance vacuumed and was mopping up all the mud and dried dust on the tile when this absolute cunt of a woman comes in and, while smiling and maintaining eye contact with me, stomps as hard as she can all over my nice clean floor and walks away
#bitch???#the world is so lucky i practice self control cause i almost said some very mean things that definitely would have gotten me fired#i just bitch about it on my tumblr blog#seriously how like. truly miserable of a person do you have to be to find joy in making people’s lives hard#like the other night i went up to a room with a coworker (one i like) towards the end of the night#and one of the nurses laughs at us like full belly fuckin haha at us and says#in the snottiest voice while SMILING ‘i know you guys are supposed to go home soon’#actual supervillain behavior like#i was about to launch over that fucking desk i’m not exaggerating but my coworker kinda like#ushered me away i think she could tell i was PISSED#idk usually when people are being rude to me i get upset but mostly just ignore it and move on#but no you don’t act like a bitch to people i like or consider a friend#get behind me people i’ve grown fond of i’ll literally defend you with my life#one of my favorite coworkers is this super sweet very shy very anxious girl she’s like 18 she’s just a baby#she reminds me of myself when i was her age (hashtag old lady moment) and i’ve become super protective of her#like that’s my little sister back off#snow.txt

and i know i could and possibly might just start posting about fics and what not that i'm writing her and set up a kofi and take suggestions and what not but. it's a lot of work.
#i'm just trying to find things i can do to help me out y'know?#motivation wise sometimes having prompts or suggestions is helpful#but building a platform annoys me and scares me#and i don't think one should have to do that to write fic and what not.#or make playlists or anything.#bc monetizing and making creative outlets like that a job or a popularity contest kills the joy for doing them.#but i also have nothing else i can offer that would be in any way marketable or monetary in terms of making something into a side hustle.#i need a raise. i need to stay longer at work. i need all kinds of things#bc it's just. crushing me atm.#and i feel like shit being crushed.#by the economy and the world at large.#i just want to thrive. and be able to get myself little treats when i think i deserve them.#and it's just. impossible at the moment.#i'm going to be 30 this year.#and i've got to keep reminding myself that i'm doing okay.#we have a house.#we are making payments on it and everything is fine#but i feel. so stretched out.#mentally and physically.#and i feel like a burden. even though i know i'm not.#like. i'm making the car payments. which we need. and i'm paying the insurance and the internet bills and my part of the mortgage#but like.#i still feel like i'm not contributing where i need to.#and it's just.#damn y'know?#idk how to fix that.#and it's not just me wanting more money to buy books it's me feeling like shit bc i can't put as much towards groceries.#or put my part towards the phone bill or electric and gas.#anyway i'm feeling like slimy howl i'm gonna go write something.
