Be careful

Just because you see a reflection something in another, something in common, something of "mirror"

Doesn't mean it's "one-to-one coded"

We all see something of ourselves in another if we know how to look

#things in common #empathy #contrariness #mirrors are valid #but don't forget funhouse mirrors #or to break that mirror from time to time

free will is drawing ur two favorite characters together and making them gay

#akekita content in this economy? it's more likely than you think #this is like for the three ppl that ship them (me tumblr user haliai and atlus)#also which boyliker at atlus designed yusuke's phantom outfit like WHY is he dressed like a gay hooker 💀💀💀💀#the skintight spandex bodysuit designed to show off the slutty waist?? the exposed cleavage?? the cunty little fox tail?? bro 😭#my hand was shaking while i was drawing the second img it felt so IMMODEST 😭😭😭😭😭#i wish atlus confirmed which highschool akechi went to bc i love the hc that he attends kosei #his tie matches hifumi's ribbon so i think they're trying to tell us smt (im delusional)#ANYWAY akechi and yusuke would match each other's freak lowkey like they're both hardcore yappers that weird everyone else tf out #akechi would find solidarity in the fact that yusuke doesn't shut up abt whatever he's interested in #also also the fact that akechi is a mirror version of him bc they're victims of the same situation #both being exploited and utilized as tools after their mothers death #by the man they called father in exchange for validation or a false sense of place #but ultimately yusuke was saved by phantom thieves while akechi refused any pity and slowly succumbed to fate of his own making #really makes you look at atlus and think whats going on in their buttery smooth brains for not including other character interactions #aside from the social links with joker. the wasted dynamic potential between some of the characters is insane 😭#persona 5 #p5 #yusuke kitagawa #kitagawa yusuke #goro akechi #akechi goro #akekita #bro me when i stay up until three am drawing persona instead of finishing my lab (i��m beyond cooked 💀💀)#i think i need to switch college majors i can’t keep doing this #lotus draws

Part 2 of 2

Thanks for tossing me the ball on this one Larian I am now running with it at mach speeds.

[[ All Croissant Adventures (chronological, desktop) ]]

[[ All Croissant Adventures (app) ]]

#- rubbing my hands together - welcome to the tags #Obviously the game was prioritizing Gale in this interaction bc it's his story and that's who Larian wrote #BUT NOT ME BAYBEEEE THIS IS CROISSANT'S TIME TO SHINE and be an excellent foil to his character #I DUNNO I just really liked playing a character who also has a buckwild amount of insecurities about this relationship -#- but in a very different flavor. I've loved keeping that in mind as the romance plot plays out.#As much as I appreciate the constant validation you give Gale from in-game dialogue bc he needs that-#-I also like holding up Croissant like a mirror to get him out of his own head.#AGAIN THIS CHARACTER WAS WRITTEN JUST FOR ME NGJKFLNDKH I love this game #Anyway now we get to grapple with Gale talking to Mystra :''''''')#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 spoilers #act III spoilers #gale romance spoilers #croissant adventures #tav #gale #gale dekarios #gale x tav #breadweave #comics #I think this 6-pager was the first time I felt like I had a handle on drawing Gale btw that man is an artistic enigma #ADDITIONAL EDIT: thank you so much for your responses on part 1 you are all wonderful folks - esp the ones mad that I made this 2 parts LOL

I like how Jessica Preddy says Rose is not in love or infatuated with Alan, but it’s her third job, her life calling. the unstoppable President of the Alan Wake fan club, genuinely Alan’s strongest soldier. (Source: Remedy YouTube)

#alan wake 2 #rose marigold #rose… ily…#ALSO I like Preddy talking about Rose mirroring characters from TV #she’s not being disingenuous but it’s how she understands humans are #but it’s also how she becomes so invested in alan wake and his writing #that’s just How things are and with fiction affecting reality it all becomes blurred #I do feel validated that it’s outright said that she isn’t in love with alan. which is already what i got from the games but nice to hear #esp with that page in aw1 about her wanting to be friends with Alan and Alice #it’s a fantasy and she’s not trying to replace Alice (even if she’s SO focused on Alan that she tends to ignore others/be insensitive)#i think it’s a little easy to assume rose would be in love with alan because I Do think Cynthia was in love with Zane #so it’s a nice contrast

⚠️⚠️WARNING: BLOOD AND GORE/ BODY HORROR!! ⚠️⚠️

Yeah I lied again-

There is angst

BUTTTT- it comes with an AU redesign so you can’t be mad at me >:3

Almond!! Aka: my take on Backrooms Sans

Been playing some backrooms games recently and had the uncontrollable urge to redesign Almond because I genuinely wasn’t happy with the first design :/

There’s been quite a lot of differences, to both lore and character design

For example how Almond ended up in the backrooms (teleporting as the game got uninstalled on the players computer)

The AU also has an actual name now!! Un(der)install

Yes spelled like that with brackets and all

(Also, for ease of clarification, I’ve decided Almond uses It/It’s pronouns, but it didn’t discover that about itself until it got stuck in the backrooms, so any misgendering on the UT cast’s part is unintentional as they genuinely do not know :D ))(if you don’t agree with Neo pronouns you can get off my page btw, go stub your toe asshole)

And finally, I couldn’t resist the urge to draw Almond in the mirror meme

I’m so cringe /pos

Don’t ask me how it found a mirror in the backrooms idfk

Link to original design if you’re curious!!

what if i said hal's mom called him "hally" specifically as a play on halley's comet, huh. what if i said she did that because she knew no matter how far he went, he'd always come back to her, hm. what then.

#and then he wasnt with her when she died FUCK #jessica jordan #they could never make me hate you #hal jordan #green lantern #empyrean posting #i do think it's extremely fucked up how they diminished and rotted her character post spectre. i actually hate it so much #i dont really mind the rewriting of martin as a /not/ absentee and abusive father (even though it cheapens the complex relationship hal had #with him what with the being his mirror image and wearing his jacket and becoming a pilot in spite of how martin treated him. constantly #seeking validation and love from a man who not only would never but then could never give it to him) but then going on to act as if jessica #wasnt his most important parent just by virtue of her being his only one for most of his life and going on to say she was actually kind of #bad because she wouldnt support him when she looked after three sons by herself and also begged the air force to take him back when he was #about to be dismissed is sooooo. god. it irks me so much. she was always there for him and she may not have been perfect but she did her #damn best and now they go around acting like martin was the only REAL figure in hal's life growing up because they understood each other on #some special cosmic level?? go to hell.#talking to myself sorry

love thinking kipperlilly spends her afterlife looking for lucy in a familiar forest

#not art #fhjy #fhjy spoilers #like. does she have a mean of knowing lucy and yolanda got sent to cassandra's domain to hang out for a bit #kipperlilly's isolation means so much to me. she is punished for everything she's done she just doesn't pick up on it #until the moment she dies! one more funky thing that mirrors riz in which he's actively tried to cultivate a community and denied it #until the bad kids. while kipperlilly does not want or care about a community she just wants someone who validates her #but she does Need a community so she latches onto the person she lets closer to her to fulfill her emotional needs #she took the ritual willingly so this might genuinely be her first death. probably terrifying #probably not even enough bandwidth to feel mortified. maybe immediately seeking something comforting out of instinct alone #lmao honestly thinking too much abt fantasy high afterlifes gives me a headache And a visceral fear #Im not religious but I grew up in a culture with a dominantly buddhist/taoist cosmology its Scary that u just go to A Place after u die!!#and then ur still urself!!! thats scary to me what do u mean u stay like that forever. thats fucked #but yeah I think this influences how I see kipperlilly turn out a little bit. in a sense I think of her as being a ghost now #yknow. trying to solve something from life so she can move on and. stop living this life etc #man the reveal that lucy took being killed pretty seriously and is like yeah the others are decent and even sweet #and probably was just trying to hold her party together and do what she thinks is moral by hearing kipperlilly out #lol lmao etc. gods I gotta wonder how kipperlilly's mindset handled jawbones' help #it really is damn tragic tho. I stand by what I said folks like this will complain and be nasty to be around #but they dont have enough desire to inconvenience themselves to off the bat do something abt what they find unfair or whatever #its when theyre handed the seemingly very easy means to be right that they'll start being dangerous #its horribly tragic that the supposed metaplayer and the self-perceived mastermind turned out to ultimately be just an useful idiot #yknow what. I think personally in my heart kipperlilly moves on from her afterlife the moment she says sorry #doesnt even have to be to lucy but that's probably gonna be who received it #ah.... teenage rebellion. teenage gamejacking

y’all know that aro thing where you want someone to be romantically attracted to you but also if someone is romantically attracted to you you want to kill someone. what’s up with that.

#like I don’t need someone to validate that I’m hot #I own a mirror I know that #but why does no one want to date me ☹️#no one is allowed to mention the fact that I will gag if someone confessed to me #aro #aromantic #lgbt #lgbtq #lgbtq+#alloaro #aroallo #arospec #aro pride #aromantic spectrum

got bored and lonely so of course my brain was like "no one likes you everyone hates you" and masturbating didn't help SO to counter that ridiculous but scarily believable train of thought i... don't know what i'm gonna do but i am NOT succumbing to it!! i am TOUGH u-u

#i think i forgot to take my medication this morning too so that has not helped #we're fine though we're logical!! i know i feel like this for valid reasons!! i'm fine!!#pointing at myself in the mirror so i know i'm SERIOUS #finnie shouts into the void

feel like some people don’t comprehend that partially the point of tbosas is that you can sympathize with Coryo. It never excuses his actions nor does it try to, but it’s way more complicated than Coryo just being ‘psycho’

#more on this when I post my notes from the book #it just irks me a little some of the interpretations I’ve seen but to each #their own #I just feel like coryo is a human and humans are complicated #at least from what I’ve read like I can obviously pick out the odd behavior and thoughts from him but at the same time #there’s parts of his thoughts that are so like #relatable and expected for someone in his circumstance #and I do think coryo and katniss mirror one another which is a whole other thi nd #thing #IDK #someone tell me you get me #because I just keep seeing so much about coryo being like straight evil the whole time and I don’t think that’s right and it does Suzanne’s #character work an injustice #also I do think he thinks he has a superiority over lucy gray and a sense of ownership but #it still feels more complicated than that #like it’s so clearly connected to his trauma of losing his mother and seeking out validation and love too #and that’s coming out in a toxic way instead of an actual love #god #kit talks #tbosas #coriolanus snow

Ok I know I have crazy Polin-brain, but I heard something from a thing that had nothing to do with Bridgerton but felt so relevant that I have to share it.

Last night I went to go see a movie, and the first piece of dialogue in the first trailer that played before the movie was this:

“What’s another word for mirrors? Six letters.”

“Dreams.”

#like #excuse me #what #mirrors #dreams #i don’t know if this is a coincidence or what but i need this experience to be validated #polin #bridgerton
