I need people to be fair to both Emmrich and Taash during their argument scene and see where both are coming from

See emmrich's culture is like constantly under scrutiny by everyone and everyone treats him suspiciously so he thinks if he educates people on it and talks about the positives he can like get people to turn their opinions on neverra and by extension him around He's probably thinking taash's hostility comes from not knowing alot about neverra and not like a discomfort around corspes

But on the flip side

Taash's mom is constantly (unintentionally invalidating their feelings) So like when Emmrich keeps bringing up corspe stuff despite them expressing their distaste it probably makes them feel similar to how they feel when they're talking to their mom Plus when they try to talk about dragons with Emmrich he shows like no interest so their own attempt at talking about what they like gets snubbed

Like Taash is in the wrong for name calling (Even though it's funny as hell) But like Emmrich in his attempts to get people to like necromancy like he does can be pushy at times and he also could've been nicer about not being interested in dragon triva

Point being stop pitting two bad bitches against each other

Who is this sassy.. lost child?

I can now recreate most of chapter 8!!! / bonus features below the cut / follow for more cool stuff

Jin Ling's sprites:

His share code is MVDLXY :)

Congrats, Jin Ling! You have 3 different poses, showing three different levels of irritation, making you the most complex character so far.

His sprites were traced off of Cody Hackins from 1-2. His little puffed-cheek sprite screamed Jin Ling.

(NASA announcer voice) Aaaand we have soundtrack. I thought Luke Atmey's and Furio Tigre's themes both suited Jin Ling pretty well. Other contenders before I decided on Moderato 2004 were Allegro 2002 and Investigation - Middle 2002.

Will take a break from these for Art Fight probably but they have been sooo fun to make. Plus I get to show off my objection.lol skills outside of stupid discord arguments.

Episode 1 starts out with one of my favorite scenes ever… I only just got to know them and I already miss this Crowley.

A single like and reblog and I'll drop all my Argenthill hcs

D'you you know why truthwatchers and lightweavers share the illumination surge?

Because illumination is about showing other people something that isn't, truthwatchers are (🚨 hot take 🚨) autism-coded, and lightweavers are (🚨 hot take alarm 🚨) ADHD-coded, and it's all about masking. Masking all the way down.

OK everyone hear me out, Raine and Adrian are like complete opposites, yet they could've had such a good dynamic going on if the show didn't get shortened.

They main thing they have in common is that their type of magic (bard and illusion) are very centered on putting on a performance or at least being on a type of stage.

It is from here that they start to differ. Mostly with personality and roles.

Starting with Raine having stage fright and most of the time, they're shown to be on a stage/front and center.

Meanwhile Adrian loves being in the spotlight and lives for drama, yet is seen to place himself as a director behind the scenes of his illusions as a preference.

Deapite their differences, one thing's for sure is that they both love what they do (music and directing)

I also find it ironic/funny that they're the only coven heads with jewelry and it's in the form of an earring, yet they wear it on different ears.

And of course the most obvious difference it that they're on opposing sides with Raine being a rebel, and Adrian working for Belos.

(Not to mention that Raine is the first covenhead we meet and Adrian is the last)

So with this in mind, could you imagine how they'd interact with each other?

Like there's a lot of potential here for interactions they could've had if the show didn't get shortened and allowed them to have screen time.

Of course Adrian will tease Raine about their stage fright and flubbing simple lines and Raine telling Adrian straight up he's the Boiling Isles worst director.

Adrian telling Raine to get a fashion sense and Raine hates it and his style.

Titan forbid they're paired together for any kind of mission because of course Adrian would so try to order Raine around so he could trick people with his illusions with Raine hidden behind one.

Not to mention, what if they both went to St. Epiderm? They probably know a lot of dirt about each other.

Despite all this I do like to think that they like similar music (classical music) and understand how music is important to adding to scenes/cinema.

I like to imagine that both of them can tell what constitutes as good vs bad music and when they hear bad music, they just agree it's the worst thing to hear.

I also like to headcannon that sometimes Raine will play some music just because they like to and Adrian most of the time will yell at them to stop. But occasionally if he likes the music they're playing, he'll listen but never tell them.

Like I swear, there was potential to be had here and in my opinion they should've interacted on screen.

Seriously, they're just two diametrically opposed theater/choir kids with dumb queer energy.

thinking about cdream and autism, do you think his habit of jumping and pacing around while talking are him stimming? I do that too so Im wondering if it could be something like that for cdream?

I also wonder how the rest of the server would react if they discovered cdream's autistic. I think some characthers like ctechno would be like "that was obvious" other would dont give a shit bc they hate him and other would like "this explains some stuff actually".

Im sorry but now i find the idea of cdream finally being put into a trial and ctechno and cpunz and maybe cranboo being his lawyers and defending him like "Your honor, my client it's literally neurodivergent and also a homeless lonely woof, and a 3yr baby" to the rest of the server. I find that idea funny idk why like cdream and his defense fighting bc like "omggg techno im not homeless and we have the same age!" "dude dont break characther, we're trying to save you!!" ranboo is just wondering what went wrong to get to this and punz is planing on stabbing the wilbur judge bc "who put that man in charge?!?"

Oh for sure, I’ve actually talked about it in my essays about c!dream being autistic [post] and later in a discussion on adhd [post]. I think since it’s not like we can see c!Dream fidget as a Minecraft character the best representation we can get is him bouncing around. :)

How would the rest of the server react?… hm I’m not sure… would they care? Would it matter to them? It’s hard to know, when you have a group of people who will throw someone in prison or watch him lose his last life, it’s hard for me to think they’d give a damn. I just don’t know, I’ve only ever told friends and family and some others who I figured would give a positive response, never to like an enemy. And usually I would do in advance so people have context before I do something they dislike, not during or after (something I think cc!dream might have screwed up on - though to be fair he did make a comment in a podcast so…) as it then doesn’t feel like I’m trying to use it to excuse my behavior. In other words, I think when, as in at what point in the story, people found out he is autistic, makes a difference. If for example they only found out later around the time of Doomsday I don’t think it would change many of their perceptions of him. If they had it before a lot of the conflict began then that might be different. Like for example, would people allow Wilbur to target him if they knew, hard to say but it would be interesting. It also matters how they find out and how much they know. For example, I tell people about what it’s like for me, so that I can then ask them to give me some grace when I need it and give me a chance to explain my side if need be. I tell them so I can then ask something of them, so the question is would Dream tell them in an effort to ask for their grace. Or would he just tell them and then just assume they would give him the benefit of the doubt. Because it’s also important for him to communicate what’s going on, if there is a disconnect happening because of autism like - me getting upset because I’ve gotten too overstimulated by the bright lights or clock ticking, then I need to tell people that’s why I’m losing it not because of anything they’ve done. Assumptions are communication’s biggest enemy or more commonly phrased, “Assumptions are the enemy of true understanding” or as George Bernard Shaw says, “The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.”

Knowing of autistic diagnosis is step one, step two is communicating that and what it means. Now that you and the other are aware you’re speaking a different language you need to do the translation. To continue an analogy I did earlier, now that you realize you are talking about an American jumper and the other person is talking about a British jumper, it’s time to take the time to explain what an American jumper is and learn what a British jumper is so than you are on the same page.

This would be the same for c!Dream. The best way for his diagnosis to mean anything without people treating him demeaningly (which does happen) is for him to communicate. But both parties have to be willing to listen and understand where eachother are coming from. The autistic person has to put aside their logic to realize that that isn’t always how other people think, and the non-autistic person has to put aside their emotions and feelings of the situation to hear the other person out. (This btw is the problem with the conversation with cc!Tubbo and cc!Dream, cc!Tubbo was not willing to hear cc!Dream out or change his mind. And if that’s the case, discussion is unproductive because the person isn’t willing to hear you out and possibly change their mind or perspective).

In other words, there are basically four outcomes from c!Dream telling people depending on when he does 1) they disregard it as an excuse that he’s using to justify his actions 2) they take the opposite approach and baby him (I think this happens I wouldn’t know it’s not been my experience) 3) it makes no difference in their opinion one way or another or 4) it provides the scaffolding for a bridge of understanding that for the members willing to form that bridge are able to better community and understand c!Dream. But again this only happens if it’s caught, highlighted and both sides are willing to talk it out. Though diagnosis is also useful in the real world, because now that you know you speak a different language, you can start to learn the other one to understand them better. Because then you can be aware of what’s happening and better adapt. And these skills can come from experience, books, therapy, videos and stuff that can help you become aware of how non-autistic brains work to better communicate with them… anyways I’ve strayed from the point haven’t I, oops…

The Coraline movie and Sally Face are eerily similar and I love it like

- the protagonist has blue hair and pronouns and a dad with terrible posture

- the sidekick character knows all the lore, believes none of it, and has that Scoliosis Slouch(tm)

- Cat.

- the basic plot is “curious kid moves into a new apartment (or something similar), their parents don’t really care what they get up to, and so they proceed to make a really weird friend out of pure convenience and find out that ghosts are real and they’re being specifically targeted by some terrifying entity that takes on the form of people they know. Meanwhile their friend takes a hot minute to realize the protagonist is not actually crazy, or if they are, at least they aren’t a liar and the building really is extremely possessed. Also there’s a cat, and the cat is a little weird.”

- also there’s multiple super weird cryptic neighbors who are… rarely dressed, for some reason. One of them has a weirdly plot relevant connection to their pet.

One day I’m gonna drop the full list of characters I enjoy but just never mention it (Roark and Byron are two of these)
