Hey now, Let her cook!
#dungeon meshi#chilchuck tims#senshi#laios touden#marcille donato#izutsumi#oyasumi punpun#<- In case you are wondering what the source for the little bird guy is.#Yeah that's right. I'm back to my extremely obscure crossover BS.#Punpun is one of those series that falls under the category of 'Good! but I cannot responsibly recommend this to anyone."#If Dungeon Meshi is like a friend asking you to go on a quick errand and you accidently go on a life changing roadtrip -#Punpun is your friend asking to go on a quick errand and they pull up to the vet and tell you your dog is being put down.#Then they explode into sludge. Melting your car. You hitchhike back but the person who picked you up is an axe murderer.#I could not finish it. My friends who did say it was good. But agree it was for the best I did not finish it.#Hey speaking of tone twists...We are one episode away from one of my favourite chapters being animated!#WHO'S READY FOR THE SENSHI BACKSTORY! WHO IS READY TO CRY!#ME! I AM! I spooked my flatmate with how energetic I was this morning. I'm vibrating with energy I was not designed to contain.#I should talk about today's episode here: It was very good. I love how they animated the familiars.#And!!! Anime only people now are in the loop on the Chilchuck lore. Part 1 of many. He still contains multitudes.#They all do to be honest! If this episode told us anything it was that we still don't know these characters as well as we think!#See you guys next week. I'll be inconsolable.

Just saw artwork of Jason doing the heads in a duffle bag thing and—-
I’m sorry but there’s just something so visceral and horrifying about a teenager sawing heads off people in a display for power.
Were they bad people? Yes. Did they deserve it? Probably. Did it send a message? Absolutely. Is it still horrifying? Heck yeah.
Just—- knowing Jason and his background, it’s just so heartrendingly tragic. I don’t even think he liked doing it, I’m just imagining him having to throw up afterwards before putting his helmet back on and playing tough crime lord again. The amount of self loathing he must feel whenever he thinks too hard about his actions. Falling asleep and seeing that—
Just— emotional repercussions, man. They’re real…
#sorry this one’s a little deep#see this is why I usually go with pit madness#one of the many reasons#like the put kind of numbs the part of you that feels guilt over something so atrocious#greys out your moral compass#if you can’t fall back on that— you’re doomed#in Jason’s case pls don’t quote me on that#anyway yeah#just#musings#ghost talks#jason todd#red#it was awesome art btw#just got me thinking tho

Fully inspired by an idea @goofalicousgooberface made of a horror pixelart game of Mark and ghost Adam (Thank you!)
A Clip of what my idea of what the game would look like.
I'm so sorry if it goes by too fast, the longer I animate the more my perception of speed goes out the window 😭
#you dont understand how many times this animation has gone back and forth from complete to pending#this made me fall in love with pixelart and animation again ahhhh#adam stanheight#adam faulkner stanheight#mark hoffman saw#mark hoffman#saw#saw 2004#saw posting#pixelart#animation#gore#<just in case#i swear to god if tumblr compresses the shit out of this i will kill someone#my art

old 2020 era NJPW Fantasy AU pieces — the setting features a world that’s scared of magic, BC is a cringefail bandit gang, and this loud lanky ex-acrobat they picked up at some point turns out to be a Mage; more in the notes
#el phantasmo#taiji ishimori#jay white#hanasartstuff#silly au tag#theres no writing for it except thoughts me and my sibling shared on discord#phanta basically tried to hide his abilities but ended up using them to save his mates#theres some drama etc etc#other things:#jays a self proclaimed king and unhinged#robbie was part of the gang but left cause of a falling out with phanta#(cause of cheesy shipping reasons: phanta tried keeping a distance between them - scared of his abilities acting up#cause of his strong feelings for eagles#all of that is before these two drawings take place)#Nimble and I had this idea that Phanta accidentally teleports himself away in shock after his powers are revealed and bc go search for him#cause at that point he’s unfortunately their guy#my idea specifically was that he unintentionally teleports himself to Robbie ksjcjsjdksj#anyways its all about silly shenanigans#i made so many aus for njpw guys back in 2020 you wouldn’t believe it#oh btw in the drawing in case it isnt clear: they were facing some big monster dude; thats whats in the background

oh to be the person Umemiya Hajime meets and falls for as he’s traveling after graduation
#mari says#meeting this guy who’s also traveling alone but he’d got too many green flags for you to stay away altogether#and he just naturally gets along with most people so he helps you when you’re having trouble with reservations for your hotel#gives you his number in case you get lost#ive been thinking about it#would he be the type to somehow end up with a dog as he’s traveling? I think so#comes back to makochi with a partner and a dog like nothing#can u imagine you meet a guy and go visit his hometown and literally EVERYONE knows him?#he’s just so casual abt it too like thats normal#its been on my mind OH I WANT TO WRITE RIGHT NOW BUT IHAVE LIKE 5 UMEMIYA WIPS THAT I SHOULDNT EVEN BE WRITING#EM YOU’RE READING THIS RIGHT?!?#THE SONG EYES ON YOU I MADE YOU LISTEN TO THE OTHER DAY#I CAN WORK WITH THAT#SORRY IM EXCITED#gotta be cool ok#maybe its rox’s fault for writing such a good ume thing#made me fall in love all over again grrr

been thinking about how asuna’s [spoiler] scene in the last chapter of idol sengen is oddly underwhelming in the volume version compared to the piccoma release?
i mean l i ke (spoiler reveal under the cut)—
idk if it’s just me but seeing it in colour made the scene hit harder somehow? in some way?
s o . im just. thinking ahead here but…
what if i tried to overlay the colour panel onto the page when i eventually tl it in a few months?
i’m not good at picture editing at all.
b u t still.
i kinda wanna try to go the extra mile for asuna anyway… hmmmmmmmmm…
#oh welllll. in the end that’s for future me to decide ig…#i’m not even sure if anyone would be interested in it anyway…#maybe i could pay someone to do it for me instead (<-has 0 connections)#hm. maybe i should’ve tried to socialise more in school. maybe i’d have met a p.shop guy or two lmao#oh well. ig it’s video tutorial time… maybe… i hope i don’t fall asleep~~~~ bc it’s for asuna….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#in any case!!!! my mind and productivity has been completely ruined by thoughts on my newfound doomed crackship of asuna x sena#like it’s a ship that could go wrong in so many ways (whether asuna gets with sena or not) and im just. ✨thoughts✨ yk???#i love the concept of rivals/enemies to lovers asumona but. like. asusena. yk.#like picture this: pov you just realised that your loving gf’s sister is the same newbie idol you’ve been unfairly antagonising and such#a n d knowing how strong sena’s sisterly love for mona is… yk??? doomed crackship is ✨doomed✨#aighhtttt ok im done with asuna thoughts for the day i s w e a r#(though ngl if they somehow end up giving asuna a cv and she somehow turns out to be ✨e m i t s u n✨ of honoka-chan fame (very unlikely)…)#(…i will pass on in ✨peace✨ idk i just think her powerful yet soothing voice would suit asuna (<-fell back into ll phase))#o k o k im done fr this time i s w e a r anyways stan asuna frusu ok bye

to be completely frank i think most of the people i've seen with major complaints regarding RGG 8's story are forgetting that 99% of what they're saying can be applied across the whole series
#this is not aimed at anyone in particular i've seen these sentiments all over#but things like 'well the story was mid' ok well come back to me after you've replayed yakuza kiwami. no optional majima everywhere allowed#and things like the ending falling flat - sure. but so did 7's#the pacing in the end chapter + chekhov's failboy were like. huh???#i'm never gonna call RGGS perfect but they're NOT regressing at all.#if anything gaiden and 8 have got me extremely hopeful for whatever comes next#like it's their 20th anniversary this year they've left so many loose ends in 8 they can carry on from they've got forever to keep going#MY only complaint is that they couldn't have retrofitted more of gaiden into IW but i can't exactly fault them for that#idk for all of the dooming i'm seeing i want to say something more positive about the game as a whole#even if this post is still pretty doom & gloom#people just let their expectations get way too high for this one game and i'm not even sure how that happened in most cases#it met all of mine - hell it EXCEEDED them. but i recognise i may be privileged on that front lol <- kashiwagi likers are eating so well rn#text#8#again i don't mean to attack anyone in particular it's just a general frustration i've been having#and i only hope that if there comes a time when people play over again that they're able to dig further into the meat of the story#and recognise that this game isn't uniquely 'shit' or 'mid'

Angela in LC, consistently telling the manager that she felt trapped and helpless and considerably miserable working in LC because she is denied of her individuality and personal choice and personhood and is also denied of any meaningful interactions whether with the sephirot or her own creator, lc hokma saying that what they have done and are still doing toward Angela was inherently cruel, even A at some point knee down to apologize to Angela because he also recognized what he was doing to her is inherently cruel in one of the loop (day 40), Angela in the epilogue straight up saying that she felt abandoned since her birth to the end for nothing hence she wanted to live her own life now, the lines in the dark in between day 47-50 are literally her begging to be noticed one last time:
LC essayist: but we literally can't know Angela's personal motivation until ruina she has never once showed her motivation and she was supposed to be hated by the narrative always and forever in LC
#i think this is less the case of narrative trickery but more case of the fandom being blatantly misogynistic hope this help#also people dont know how to read#absurd with people saying that LC trying to tell us A is good because LC only worked because A is a horrible person#even in his narration he portrayed himself as some sort of monster#and every characters in LC have beef with him pre and even AFTER their personal suppressions#the only difference is that LC made clear that LC cycle is supppsed to be a symbolic cycle of A tried to escape being a harmful person#and kept fall back into pattern because of his uncertaincy and fear and many other things#people who are aware of the loop (Hokma Angela Binah) literally made this very obvious analog toward the players#and literally guys in his head that he must overcome all tell him that kept perpetuating the loop or destroy everything#would be the most comfortable and easy choice for him to make because changing is suffering changing is dying for them#and the reason why day 50 is GOOD is because it is when A decided to move pass those mindset and break the pattern once and for all#when lor binah said that ''the cycle was broken once'' and in the end lor Angela repeated day 50 to break her own cycle of misery#what do yall think it was suppposed to mean#i hate lc essayist i hate lc essayist

Thinking abt Sif Odile duo looping au again and I wanna be able to plot everything out more coherently but act 5 eternally looms overhead and boy I do not wanna look up
#rat rambles#stars posting#like I have a vague idea of some of the like themes I imagine being present late game but it doesnt change the fact that act 5 isnt very#duo looper au friendly especially in this case with most of the ideas I have#I rly want it to be both a breaking point for them as individuals and a breaking point for their relationship but idk how to go about that#fully taking the rest of the party into account especially since Im not even sure if I wanna give odile her own friendquests#like I Could but I also think it'd be fun for many reasons to not#and even if I Did itd be hard to justify having both be able to happen and go wrong in one loop#and theres not rly a good solution to that I think so my best bet is probably to just leave odile friendquestless#but Id rly like to still have odile quarrel with the rest of the party in a significant way#idk maybe it can be the scene where sif comes back to the lighthouse or smth?#like he comes back and odile just completely lashes out at him or smth and the others get rly upset with her#but then theres also the whole walk through the house that I have to figure out and Im also not set on how that should go#maybe it can be like reality almost splitting as they both try to use timecraft at the same time?#not sure how Id go about portraying that in story though since the rest of the party cant rly experience that I think#Im sure theres some way you could pull that off tho Im just too tired to have any good ideas atm#and then the biggest bastard comes in. mal moments.#like I cant just put them both there! that's not how that works!#and I dont wanna just leave them mostly vanilla thats boringgggg#but Id probably have to. alas.#afterwards is also a bit fuzzy but I have rhe general idea down#me and the bestie when we both made the same wish but dont know that and have both been falling into a spiral over it#(we dont even realize that the part of the wish that was the exact same was the core of the wish)#(we both just thought that we accidentally trapped the other with us in this hell)#(we also have been actively getting worse at communicating for months now so by the time the wishcraft stuff came up we were both deep in#the no feelings talky talk zone)#(we probably should have known smth was up when everyone started consistently thinking that we had a fight every loop)#(maybe we did but we just didnt want to admit they were right)#god I wish I was more confident with writing odile dialogue I wanna draw scenes from this au so bad#it doesnt help that I got too comfortable being into a media that had like 3 fans and now ppl might actually look at what I create

I still can't believe YouTube took away community captions just to try and force creators to pay for it instead.
#now we're all fucked and they still didn't get their money but they'll never put it back bc that would mean they lost so now everything sux#i watch a lot of content thats nit in english that would have captions otherwise that now will just. never ever get translated.#and it fucking sucks#it was someone's birthday the other day and they went live but ill never fucking know what they said#because the biggest fucking video platform in the motherfuckinf world decided that they could beat one more dollar out of their golden rock#and tore away years and years and years of community and charity and kindess and generosity and work for what was ultimately nothing.#they got fuckall and for them nothing changed they don't give a shit that they ruined thousands of fucking lives#do you realize how many HOH/Deaf ppl are just fucked now?#creators with less favored accents falling off bc autocaptions are for tv english only?#and like in five years they'll sell it back to us as a premium feature i fucking garuntee it#this so genuinely needs to be an ACLU/accessibility case.#but no one wants to fight the megaconglomerate bc theyre richer than god and will smite you like one#fuck.#filed under: speaking

Ughhhhhhh I hate writing and I hate not writing and I hate myself
#nearly bought a digital typewriter today. actually i DID buy a digital typewriter today. officially yes i have bought a digital typewriter.#the money for the digital typewriter has left my account but i have emailed them to cancel the order because i can't in good faith buy#a digital typewriter when i don't fucking WRITE#i thought it might help me get back into it. distraction free and while allowing me to not judge my own writing#and be continuously editing while i write and going 'i'm crap i'm crap i'm crap no one will ever read this and if they do they will think#that i'm garbage and that i should feel bad etc etc etc'#but it's too expensive and i have the feeling i wouldn't even like or use the thing once i got it#because the IDEAS! the ideas aren't coming to me. or rather they are but none of them seem to stick#i feel underconfident in writing any of them#and then i have old projects that i've always wanted to get back to like the tennis romance thing but SO much has changed since i first#started drafting it. like i don't even know if i like the main couple anymore. i kind of want to put both of them with different OCs of min#but it'd switch up the WHOLE story if i had a different cast#in fact most of the problem lies in the fact that i have this long-running bedtime story i tell myself every night with lore#and a massive cast of characters that i switch out depending on who i'm most interested in right now and every so often i incorporate new#themes and ideas and motifs and plot points sometimes based on media i've been watching because it's MY bedtime story and it doesn't matter#if i plagiarise in my own brain. but then obviously i can't plagiarise in real life#and none of my bedtime stories are GOING anywhere. sometimes i only get through a scene or two before i fall asleep#all of which means my bedtime story is not so much a sweeping epic novel but a sitcom with way too many characters#most of which are werewolves to be honest and sometimes for my own wish fulfilment one of them will walk out of my head#and take care of my problems for me by lending me £1million or murdering my best friend's ex. in my mind obviously#so it's like. it's a case of getting in there and annexing off the stuff i think i can use#it's like yeah i've definitely written several romance novels in my head in the process of this but does it matter if they're IN my HEAD#to be honest i feel like my main strength is in creating characters. like i have this one family of werewolves i've been slowly but surely#adding members to since i was like 16. maybe younger? no yeah i think i made the first one when i was 12#they're compelling to ME anyway. i care about them. it's just PLOTS. i can't plot#if a book could just be a lot of dialogue and sex scenes and silly moments and character studies i'd be alright#i also can't describe settings. don't ask me to because i can't#and now i'm just annoyed with myself because i sat down at my laptop to try to write and instead i'm here complaining about how i don't wri#and if i had the digital typewriter... i mean i'd probably still be doing this i'd just no longer have £300#i don't have the £300 anyway. i hope to christ they refund my card i'm a fucking idiot

This is gonna sound so simple but one thing the show did really well is make the ladies so distinct that even in writing, especially in writing actually. It's not just a personality thing or a context thing, they had very distinct speech rhythms and joke structures. I feel like so many shows forgo this and are just amorphous blobs of humor.
Anon, that's not simple at all, and I agree with you completely!! The writers really knew what they were doing with the Girls as characters. Each of the Girls has her own particular way of speaking and joking and telling stories -- it's a lot of fun to analyze!! Especially when you notice they've picked up on one of the other Girls' speech patterns :)
Honestly, the Girls feel like complete, strong characters under all POVs! Even the costume people were incredible in their work -- I don't know a thing about fashion, and even I can tell that each girl has a peculiar style (in the kind of clothes they wear, the colours, the cuts, the inspiration...). They all have a *strong* identity, both visually and in writing / speech patterns!
#i actually think this is the main reason the show works so well#the plots are great and the humour is amazing by itself ofc#but i don't think it would be *as* special if the writers hadn't been so particular about getting the Girls *just right*#they're just so recognizable! they have such distinct voices and styles#and yet they work together so well!! it's wonderful!!#i agree that many other comedies don't *get* this aspect. this is especially important for a sitcom imho#bc sitcoms don't have a spectacular plot to 'fall back on'. they're very character driven#so you've got to have good recognizable and distinct characters or it will all be a pile of of amorphous blobs of humour as you say#@eeblouissant pointed out some time ago that the way dorothy tells stories is similar to the way rose tells stories and. oh my god.#that just melts my heart. they picked up on each other!!#and that's so realistic! we all pick up little things from the people we love#i've been told i'm good at reproducing the girls' voices and i'm really happy if this is the case bc it's really important to me!#they have such strong identities -- when a line doesn't sound like the right Girl it's so immediately noticeable#the golden girls#ask

Apparently, today's brainrot of choice is a Golden Girls Sound of Music AU where Rose is Maria, Dorothy's the Captain, and Blanche is the Baroness, only that one scene where the Baroness visits Maria in her bedroom ends very differently & they end up in a polycule
#i'm afraid i'm sending this one into the void but i was singing edelweiss on my way to the supermarket when this thought popped up#and it has *not* let go of me since#i'm sorry but this just seems perfect for them when you consider it!!#rose seems like she would 100% be the type to be mesmerized by nuns (and their singing)#only to find out after joining the convent that she absolutely is Not the right type to be a nun#(she would absolutely be found singing and humming everywhere. her tendency to hum is a canon fact!! and she's great with children!!)#dorothy would be a widow rather than a divorcee in this case & i guess stan was still a yutz (but with money this time)#it's been 2 years or so since he died and she's been absolutely torn with guilt over how *free* she feels without him#(she thinks she ought to feel sad like any good widow but she doesn't. just like she felt she should've loved him during their marriage#but she also couldn't of course.#so i'm guessing she has this sense of ''if i wasn't able to love you the way i should have when you lived#then at least i should grieve you as i ought to now that you're dead.''? so she spends her time being... well. we've all seen the captain#because she doesn't feel like she's *allowed* to experience joy anymore#which is when Rose shows up and slowly brings love and life and music back into the household!!)#Blanche as the baroness feels pretty self explanatory to me#but i think for additional conflict she's a widow who was very happily married#(everyone thinks she married for money & rank but it really was love. SO MUCH of it)#and the very first person Blanche falls for again is Dorothy. so of course she sees Rose as a threat the first time they meet#but when she sees how much Rose genuinely loves Dorothy (and how *good* Rose is for her!!) Blanche slowly falls in love with her too#i have SO MANY thoughts about this au lol i'm kind of starting to wish i had the motivation to write it :')#the golden girls#golden wives#rose nylund#dorothy zbornak#blanche devereaux

yarrow as a character who consistently gets into situations out of their depth and proceeds to deal with it anyways
#to be fair he mostly IS the one who gets himself into these situations like. he could opt to not do these things. or at least make different#decisions. for example:#going along with an outlaw who taking him to an entirely new town with nothing but the (work) clothes on his back and his wallet#falling in love (not a choice per se) and pursuing a relationship with said outlaw. who has so many issues not limited to just. up#and leaving. twice#(there's nuance there but ignore it for the sake of this post)#then becoming what is essentially a domestic terrorist bc he got kidnapped and turned part bug#while gay#some of these situations were worth doing. esp irt grimm bc i think in a lot of cases they're the only two that could handle one another#'is it really logical to have the character who is a doctor be the one who smokes' yeah. they deserve it#yarrow#rambles

Me BSing hcs like: The fact that Kae is not only able to create a shield when he is dangerously low HP but also the fact that he is able to regenerate HP when he hits opponents with Frostgnaw is definitely due to him receiving his Vision when Diluc had tried to kill him in their Confrontation...but could it be possible that his familial ties to the Abyss Order could have influenced that HP drain of his-
#//And that's without mentioning the fact that Glacial Waltz's duration increases FOR EVERY OPPONENT DEFEATED#//Between that and his lil teleporting trick like an Abyss mage's (minus the flurries of ice); I have SO many thinkings#//Deffo love the abilities of his being an amalgam of Vision based and Abyssal energy imbued#//Deffo love that fact meaning it hurts a bit to use his Vision at all; esp with the teleporting being such a Staple to his combat style#☆ ┆ ( .ooc. );#//Sidetracking a bit; but I also like to think that even after the Abyss is defeated/beaten back enough to not be such a threat; he'd still#keep his abilities from it/some connection to it. Bc he's so used to it being such a big PART of his fighting style/assets to use in a pinc#//But also bc keeping that connection means it'd help him keep track of any remnants of the Order far easier#//He could track them down with far more ease; sense if they are growing stronger; get intel from Domains/abyssal traces#//Of course being very mindful to keep it a secret & trying to not involve his loved ones/fellow knights of it all#//But he very much is careful esp bc of risks of him being corrupted by it; keeping a keen eye on his mental/physical/emotional states#//Deffo has plans to leave Mond and/or end his own life if he starts seeing the Abyssal corruption affecting him irreversibly#suicide mention tw#//Kind of but also kind of not; considering some of the ways how he'd go abt it#//Knows it'd be harder to the further it goes; so he has particular criteria he keeps tracks of to ensure if they come to pass#//he; in a clearer state of mind; would either 1) use his Vision to try & purge the energy out of himself (extremely painful; COULD kill#if the corruption runs deep enough & save him the trouble) or 2) use the aggressiveness of the corruption to provoke someone (esp Luc)#into taking care of him &thus ending the problem all together. Bc he KNOWS he's strong; only a handful of beings could actually kill him#//& actually be WILLING to; without hesitation. Luc comes to mind first bc of their Confrontation. But also bc Kae'd be happy w him being#the last person he ever sees. Thinks it'd be comforting more than anyone else. Esp since a lover would just break his heart to see them#//Worst case scenario is him falling to the corruption & sb breaking it out of him in the moment#//Bc the Instant he realizes what's happening; esp if they are crying and/or angered at him; he WILL fatally wound himself#//And make SURE it's not something he can come back from; save by a miracle (or 'curse' as he'd see it)#//Probably making an icicle and slitting his own throat; if not jamming the thing into his heart#//he won't hesitate; wont offer explanations; final words or apologies; he cant risk that moment of clarity being too short for it#//he HAS to make sure he can't hurt anyone any further; no matter what it means for him#//Which is partly why he'd be so keen to make sure it's not found out; bc he KNOWS he can be talked out of keeping those abilities#//Or worse; he'd fight them on it; and thus make for a fucken MESS in the aftermath if he's been too far along in the corruption#//But he KNOWS that even with the risks; the powers are a VALUABLE asset to him; &thus desperately wants to keep them#//'sidetracking a bit'; I said. Proceed to write a wHOLE FUCKEN NEW HC IN TAGS; I did; kjfbgkftg. Whoops lmao
