Past Tense
I found some old character/pairing lists on my long-defunct journal and they amused me so I am reposting them here.
Main thoughts: I have no idea why I thought I was most like Vicky, I like June a lot now, and 2024 me really wishes that there was way more Jim/Anyone than there is.
2011 Fandom Survey
Favourite male: Rod Skase. Always. He had so much innate ability, but he always cocked things up because he was too busy trying to look good. Favourite female: Viv Martella. She was such a brilliant character. She was in the show back when female officers were still a rarity and she dealt with the male characters' doubt in her abilities by showing, time and time again, that she could cope with anything the job threw at her while retaining her sense of humour and ability to care. Least favourite: Ugh, so many of the post-shark-jumping characters and the awful changes made to formerly-good characters. I'm going to run with the changed version of John Boulton, though, because the proper John Boulton was one of my absolute favourites and they absolutely ruined his character by making him into something else entirely. In a way, it was good that they killed him off (although HOW they killed him off was also ridiculous), because it hurt to watch such a fantastic character being so utterly ruined. Thank goodness Rod went out in a way that was perfect for who he was, staying in character from beginning to end. Who resembles me: Vicky Hagen. Three more characters that I like: Frank Burnside, Cass Rickman, Roy Galloway. SO MANY MORE. Favourite ship: Skase/Boulton. Pre-ruining of Boulton, thankyouverymuch.
2009 Favourite Characters List
CID * Rod Skase (duh) * John Boulton * Roy Galloway * Tom Proctor * Frank Burnside * Jack Meadows * Ted Roach * Alan Woods * Liz Rawton * Viv Martella * Alistair Grieg Uniform * Taffy Edwards * Matt Boyden * Steve Loxton * Reg Hollis * Yorkie Smith * Cass Rickman * Vicky Hagen * Nick Klein * Dale Smith (as he was the first time around) * Andrew Monroe * Gina Gold * Sam Harker * Bob Cryer * Derek Conway * Gary Best * Jim Carver (as in old-time Jim, not drunk!Jim)
2006 Fandom Survey
Favorite "Characters": Rod Skase, John Boulton, Tom Proctor, Gary Best, Frank Burnside, Mike Dashwood, Reg Hollis Least Favorite "Characters": June Ackland, Debbie McAllister, a large proportion of the cast that came in the couple of years following the Great Sun Hill Barbeque Favorite Ships: Rod/John, Rod/Tom, Des/Reg, Nick/Smiffy, Cass/Vicky Ships that make me nauseous: Oh God, the Dave/Jenny/George rubbish. Also anything that paired together people who had worked together for years without showing any interest in each other. Names commonly involved with this? Jim, June, Tony & Polly.
2002 Fandom Survey
Favorite Pairings: Skase/Boulton Skase/Proctor Boulton/Proctor Meadows/Monroe Stamp/Ashton Klein/Smith Hagan/Boyden Pairings I’m dying to write: Klein/Smith Pairings I’m not keen on reading: Jim/Anyone

actually I will say something about this:
setting up a romance line but waiting until one of the actors is a freshly legal adult before executing it is creepy, actually, especially when the co-star is 15 years older
#i am exactly 10 years older than aiden so i can tell you that shits weird#the umbrella academy#apparently aiden was 19 kissing a 34 year old actress just to clarify (ps 18-20 year olds are NOT minors either don't get it twisted)#just cause it's legal doesn't mean it's not weird for producers to do that#yes it's acting but that's an excuse hollywood loves to use when putting young actors in scenes with much older actors#also muting this now cause i'm not even in this fandom

Being on the nostalgia train this week really helped stretching my artistic legs again. So here, have some old things and some new! For now I'm done with this.
#naruto#team 7#kakashi hatake#dai nana han#listen I seldomly think about naruto but when I do it is only with a fix it mindset so there is always time travel involved#this was fun! overpainting old things is always the most easy for me if I haven't drawn in months#but I am also done with posting that stuff because one. made me draw other things two. there are some.. dedicated naruto fans#and I look into my ask box and go 'haha - hell no'#which kinda does kill the joy#which is WEIRD because isn't it old by now?? shouldn't things be... less intense ppfpfpf#on the other hand I got some lovely comments and stuff so <3#thank you alllll

"If we must fight, Sethos... I shall defeat you with the power of my friend group of employed adults who miraculously have regularly scheduled meet-ups, and also my daughter!"
[redesigns]
#YAAAAAY#YAAAAY WE'RE SO BACK#sethos does not have a redesign for now because he is 3 hours old and I am also revelling in the fact his concept art got revised thank god#my son with toxic waste eyes who looks like claude von something and leona from twst fused#but I also asked my friend about him and she just reiterated that people nicknaming al-Haitham Al was the funniest thing ever#so sethos's design can stay. for now#ANYWAY YAAAAAYYY CYNO SQ2#THIS VERSION IS FOR FAMILY!!!!#genshin impact#cyno#sethos#collei#tighnari#kaveh#al-haitham#my art#faruzan is there but tiny#so is hermanubis#although technically would every image of cyno also have hermanubis in it??? much to think about#WE'RE SO BACK

Many gravity falls fans, circa 2016: OH MY GOD WHY DID MABEL HAND OVER THE RIFT. SHE'S SO DUMB, SHE'S THE WORST, WHY WOULD SHE EVEN DO THAT?! MABEL'S NOT A GOOD PERSON!
Alex Hirsch, circa 2024: **deep inhale**
SHE'S A CHILD OF IMPENDING DIVORCE AND IS GONNA HAVE TO GO BACK TO THAT
#People hated on mabel for YEARS because she (a child) made one irrational choice without us knowing why she did it. WELL YOU KNOW NOW.#ARE YOU HAPPY? SATISFIED? ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?#Yes I am a Mabel apologist. 12 year olds are allowed to be dumb and irrational and make bad choices. Thats the whole point of middle school.#gravity falls#mabel pines#book of bill#book of bill spoilers#gf spoilers#bob spoilers#spoilers

if you’re young and transmasc and the people in your life haven’t been great about the whole thing and you’re starting to feel like it might be easier to just give up and pretend to be the person they want you to be, i need you to hold on. because the thing is, one second you’re 16 and a future where you get to make decisions about your own body and life feels so impossibly far away and you can’t imagine living like this for that long, but then you blink and it’s been six years and you’re in your car with the music blasting and your voice is lower than the guy in the song’s and your hair is long for the first time in a decade because you’re finally confident enough to grow it out again on your own terms and your chest hasn’t been weighed down in months and it’s the freest you’ve ever felt in your life and i promise it will be worth the wait. don’t give up on yourself.
#was literally just driving home from the store and it was such a euphoric experience i had to make a post#16 year old me never could’ve imagined being where i am right now#he certainly wouldn’t have believed i would be able to get to this point while still living in my parents’ house#positivity#transmasc positivity#trans man positivity#trans men#transmascs

I haven't drawn in so long and tf2 comes back with a bat to my brain again after I first got super into it when I was *checks notes* 14 I gotta get my gears wet again and like, rediscover how to draw and I'm wetting my feet again with a heavymedic shit post 😭
------------------- EDIT: The original images contained a text post from someone who did not want that text post spread - So let's have the blank versions instead! Imagine any dialogue in there that you want lol
#tf2#team fortress 2#tf2 heavy#tf2 medic#heavymedic#red oktoberfest#man they need a different ship name#its been 11 years on and off being into tf2 and here I am... finally posting for it#you shouldve seen the drawings id made when I was 14 - the shift from anime bishi men to... 30-50 year old comic-style burly men AAA#It was crazy#this is also the media that made me trans LOL#anyways! Im excited to draw for tf2 while im into it for now and am interested in stepping my toes into this fandom proper :)#Im also really glad that Ive grown so much in terms of drawing ability that I can feel comfortable drawing heavy#i didnt even try it when I was 14/15

figure skating set right now please. thanks
#project sekai#pjsk#prsk#emu otori#proseka#tsukasa tenma#nene kusanagi#rui kamishiro#wxs#wonderlands x showtime#GUYS I AM PUTTING OFF WORKING ON MY COSPLAY SOMETHING STUPID. im tireddddd i like sleeepingggff i want to play and drawwwww#after work I literally ate a giant bowl of mac n cheese and climbed into bed. lifestyle choices of a 9 year old#anyways i want figure skaitng set. bad. PJSK HAS A WEIRDLY LOW NUMBER OF ACTUALLY WINTERY SETS... like 3. kind of.#i have some thumbnail sketches but im kind of stumped on composition for them. my idea was a nene focus set#(IF HER NEXT FOCUS ISNT PHANTOM OF THE OPERA THEMED INWILL DIE. BADLY. THEYRE GOING TO AN OPER AHOUSE. PLEADBR)#originally my idea was for nene to be biting a medal i was very sold on it bc i love nenes competitive side#however her outfit is so nice i want it to also be part of the art .. its heavily inspired by that one iconic eunsoo lim dress#from her somewhere in time program iirc. im really undatisfied with emus dress tbh my origimal idea was to give it a phoenix look#but a lot of the firebird/phoenix skating programs have very sleek dresses and i want emus to be fluffy. the balance is hard ..#and since i want her program song to be once upon a dream from sleeping beauty i swerved to make it look a bit like auroras ? but again#it definitely feels like the weakest of everybodys ... maybe i just love her too much and want her to look the best. sorry wxs.#tsukasas outfit is supposed to look like a shooting star. easy. program music moonlight sonata 3rd movement like from dazzling light. easy.#actually i like takahashi daisukes moonlight sonata program its a medley of the 1st and 3rd movement.. i think the calm at the beginning#is best. maybe smth like that.. for his card inhad him doing a haircutter spin but again. the outfits good i want the outfit visible. damn.#ruis the one im very set on even now. girl why are you so phantom of the opera.#it has a lot of beautiful programs to reference but the outfit i didnt really have any solid reference i kind of just balled#my main idea was to make it look a bit like both christine and the phantom.... gender Fluid.#my yapfest... i should be SEWING!!!!!!!!#despite my yapping im not that well versed in figure skating i cant really distinguish jumps i just like it . and medalist#i only do normal skating. bc i played hockey for like 7 years LOLLLL inlove skating though Heart.
