I'm going over Dropout tv highlights on YouTube while daydreaming about ATLA—and I'm ROLLING.
Sokka, in front of the whole Avatar Day town with his detective hat and mock pipe:
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury...over the past four hours, you've seen the town prosecutor attempt to...effectively...bamboozle you with a series of hearsay arguments, and loose speculative evidence, placing my client—
(Sokka gestures to Aang, who's standing nervously in silence behind him)
—NEAR the scene of the crime, DURING the time of the murder.
You are tasked to consider the evidence—and whether it proves, BEYOND a reasonable doubt, whether my client is guilty...
(Crowd falls into pensive silence)
Sokka: Is my client a perfect man...? No—
Kyoshi: —I killed him, yeah.
#avatar#avatar the last airbender#atla#game changer#dropout tv#aang#sokka#avatar kyoshi#the prompts from GC and MsN are perfect animatic material PLEASE someone get on this NOW

Have you watched Trigun(1998) btw ? Or the new one Trigun Stampede (2023) which is a reboot with some different additions ? Would you like to watch them in case you haven't? Would like to know your thoughts?
Sorry this isn't dn related.
Take care.
The main guy looks SO familiar to me, but no I have not! 👀 if I do I will post some of my thoughts, thanks for asking. You should tell me what's fun about it
#it's the kind of familiar like#did i just see him on the cover of a manga in the manga section of my local bookstore a bunch in the 00s maybe#or was he the avatar of a guy i had on msn in high school#i still have a pretty big lack of manga/anime reading and watching knowledge overall so i do appreciate recs#especially for v influential and classic good stuff#ask#anon#reccs#p

take me back to the days of having two or three different IM services running, an IRC window, and multiple firefox windows open to different forums.
the forums have unobtrusive banner ads at the top and bottom. your avatar on one forum is 200x200 and other people are amazed when you tell them the forum allows avatars that big. your forum signature has links to your dA, FFN, the java chat for your chatroom, your personal website, and some adoptable dragon. one user shows off the fact that they just got photoshop by making a newer, fancier signature banner. there's at least six active RP threads in the RP subforum, and a user has started a new sprite comic in the art subforum. there's multiple new threads in the other subforums to check out, and some new posts on that thread about That One Episode. you reply again, notice your forum rank has gone up, and take a screenshot to upload to iownjoo to show your friends later.
your friends have silly goofy animated avatars on AIM and one of them has one of those funky talking ones that reacts to whatever they type. one of your friends on MSN Messenger has sent you the giant laughing head animation again because it makes them laugh. you and your friends change your MSN Messenger names to matching Homestar Runner quotes.
you upload another 100x100 icon to your LiveJournal account, this one an "angry" one featuring another favorite character of yours. new posts from one of the fandom comms excitedly speculate about a new episode. one of the fanfic comms you follow is hosting a new challenge.
the IRC chat is somewhat active at the moment. someone uses a script to announce what music they are listening to on winamp. one person has changed their quit message to another goofy quote. a troll joins, and one of the mods jumps on the chance to use that funny new kick message they'd thought up. someone makes a dumb typo and the channel's topic is changed to incorporate the typo.
you check on some fansites to see if they've gathered any news on the upcoming games. one of them has scans they claim are from a Japanese magazine and are Totally Real. you get the feeling they're not, but you're amused anyway. there's new art on one of the oekaki boards on one site--someone spent three hours on an absolute masterpiece of a drawing, while some kid drew a stick figure and clearly left the window open for fifteen minutes to satisfy the "spend at least 15 minutes on a drawing" rule. another person posts a quick drawing of their persona sobbing because they accidentally refreshed the page and lost the image they'd been working on.
someone jumps on AIM and frantically tells you to check out one of your usual forums. when you refresh the page, you immediately crack up to find every instance of the letter "a" replaced with "BAD WROD" because a moderator accidentally messed up the swear filter. sadly, you and your friends are laughing too hard to think to take any screenshots to immortalize this moment before it's hastily corrected.
the internet at this time is not a perfect place, but you will not realize what you have until it is long, long gone.
#some nonsense#...ignore me i'm still nostalgic for web 1.0#also this was not supposed to be this long#it was just going to be the first paragraph and then i just... kept going

What caused you to start writing? What was your key point?
Questions for the mun!
#1 - What caused you to start writing?
I was fascinated with these fantasy and sci-fi and all sorts of other stories as a kid. My first exposure to story telling was with Halo and Final Fantasy VI. I had big thoughts about the storylines and wondered what if this or that or the other thing happened instead.
Eventually I took up the idea of what if I wrote the characters for a bit? I did that on MSN with a few friends, and it was huge. We changed avatars regularly on the fly as well.
Though I knew taking here and the other places I had been gave me a lot to think about, and I wanted to have fun crafting my own experiences with my favourite characters. And. Well? Here I am now.
#2 - What was your key point?
One word. Ex. Perimen. tation. Experimentation.
You're never going to craft the perfect story. Or play a character perfectly. Not on your first go. But that's not a problem. That is never a problem and I won't stand for others saying that it is a problem. Everyone portrays their characters differently depending on their own exposures and thoughts, and that's okay.
My key point, is a phrase. "Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
Be creative. Expose yourself. Try more things. Experiment. It's all about having fun, and crafting things that people will enjoy. So enjoy it!

Your picture is of a creature that licks the screen. I know because I used the GIF as an avatar on MSN Messenger in like 2008-2009. I think the version you are using is one with the colors inverted.
That's brilliant! I mean if you don't mind it. Hello avatar sibling! But in case you do mind bc it belongs to you and you don't want to see it used by others please just let me know. I had just got it from a friend with no awareness about its history.
