Okay uhm let me reblog this too :3

[shadow-the-crow]

I think i finally understand how the Distortion works. I mean, i don’t think it’s possible to ever fully understand it, and i don’t know the whole picture yet because i don’t know what Helen will be like, but i feel like i’ve just been granted a glimpse at the lovecraftian (as in ineffable) thing that is this being.

It’s not a person and a creature fighting inside one mind. There’s no Michael clawing himself to the surface to express his emotions and get his revenge.

Michael Shelley is dead. The Distortion became Michael. It sounds so simple, yet a least in my opinion it’s hard to fully understand.

I think what provides the best metaphor is a small thing the Distortion says after becoming Helen: "without a proper mind." The Distortion does not have its own mind. It’s only a what, but in order to really exist in this reality, it needs a who. It needs a body, but also a mind.

So if i understand this right, it’s like this: Michael Shelley is dead. His conciousness is not there anymore. And the Distortion got forced into that mind, an empty mind of a dead person. This doesn’t make it human, it’s still able to understand the impossible, it’s still the thing that was created to scare and kill. But in the mind it’s living in… the previous owner’s furniture is still there. It gets the dead person’s memories. It becomes Michael, in the sense that it has to be someone. Its existence got tied to being Michael, although Michael Shelley is dead.

When Michael got "emotional", that wasn’t Michael Shelley coming through. It was the Distortion grappling with the side effects of being someone - of living in a mind with all the memories and the human emotions that a human mind can’t fully turn off, even when the thing inhabiting it isn’t human at all.

The Distortion was Michael in the sense that it was thinking with Michael Shelley’s mind. When it became Helen, its consciousness, its being stayed the same, but it needed to adapt to this new mind. It could see clearer now, realizing that the windows of the previous house had been dirty, realizing that the wirings of the previous mind had driven it to do something that it actually didn’t want to do. The throat of the Spiral itself getting caught in the spiralling of its own, borrowed mind.

What do you think Odile does for a living? She feels teacher like to me. What do you think she would do post canon?

HMMMM THIS IS GOOD QUESTION…

ive seen a lot of people hc her as a teacher / professor so i!! think that suits her pretty well. specifically as someone who studies + specializes in different types of craft (that would be why shes so proficient in multiple craft spells. also how she was able to figure out the loops stuff, AND to find something that could prevent siffrin from looping back).

post canon i am not sure… i am always torn between how the party would handle things post canon. obviously they would keep travelling for a bit, odile alongside her family without the stress of. constant sadness encounters + a king to kill lol. i think maybe she would get to take her time, reeaally get to know vauguardian culture when not within. a crisis. as was her original intention.

eventually. EVENTUALLY. when the family settles down somewhere (i am a “they all get a big house together” believer lol) she would get back into craft stuff. maybe go back into teaching too—surely people would be eager to hire a saviour. especially though i think it would be neat of her to try looking into wish craft etc, as a long forgotten form of craft. to satisfy her own curiosity, for siffrins sake, or just as a way of preserving the countries culture in whatever ways possible.

Can good Mileven shippers be your friends?

YAYYYY MY FIRST ASK!!! yeah, why not!!! having different ships should never stop me or anyone else from being friends with someone!!! besides, conflicting interests can always end up in nice debates as long as everyone is respectful!!! :DD

good mileven shippers are nice :)) stopping myself from being friends with them just because I don't agree with mileven would suck >:/

btw I LOVE ASKS, so anyone who sees this post feel free to send me one, if u do i really appreciate it!!!!

[kaeyachi]

Pyromaniac Kaeya instead of Pyrophobic Kaeya HC for everyone's consideration:

- Young Kaeya who saw fire and just went "light pretty". His birth father scrambling every time to keep Kaeya from touching open flames

- soon found out how to make fire on his own and now his father is scrambling to stop him from doing so

- hates rain coz no fire! >:( Oh, and his father left him in the rain, right. But mostly coz of no fire!! >:(((((

- ...his father actually waited for a storm to make sure no fire occurred when he left Kaeya

- Crepus approaches a shivering child in the storm, and the child just reaches for him. Turns out Kaeya thought his hair was fire and wanted to touch

- When Kaeya woke up in a warm bed and saw the color red, he thought he died and went to Celestia somehow, turns out it was just a young Diluc staring at him too closely oops

- Kaeya is so envious! He really wants red hair too! (to look more like a Ragnvindr, he swears!)

- When waking up early, he goes to Adelinde to watch her cook food on preeetttyyy fffiiirrreeee

- Started a vineyard fire once. Good thing the staff saw on time before it could do any damage. He wasn't scolded too heavily, but he felt really bad after scaring everyone, and tbh that is the only reason Dawn Winery stands to this day (with several close calls)

- Kaeya, after Diluc got his pyro vision,  enjoyed the fire when they were fighting side by side

- He'd stick really close to Diluc while fighting to the point that Diluc actually subconsciously learned to make his fire avoid Kaeya

- Diluc had to purposely will his fire to aim at Kaeya in their fight :(((

- Diluc is horrified because he sees Kaeya stare straight at the fire unflinchingly :(((

- Kaeya gets his vision, and he finally realizes it was actually raining because suddenly it feels very very cold. Damn he really hates the rain

- he actually wished it were a pyro vision instead and thought that being given a cryo vision was just punishment and added suffering

- for the short time Kaeya stayed in the Dawn Winery while Diluc was away, he actually sat dangerously close to the fireplace. It worried Adelinde and Elzer who kept a careful eye on him

- in his own room in the KOF dormitories, he'd hold onto Diluc's vision to keep himself warm- the underlying power of pyro making him feel safe and happy

- when Diluc's vision started flickering, Kaeya went on a panic. He's scared the fire would be gone forever. Thankfully it ended up ok after a couple of hours, but he hid Diluc's vision on him for a while instead of leaving it in his room

- He was a bit bitter to be parted with said vision when Diluc returned. He decided to be a bit more extra annoying with how he gave the vision back to Diluc out of spite (thru an ugly vase)

- he unfortunately got so used to keeping Diluc's vision near him in his sleep that he ended up having a hard time sleeping for a while in its absence

- No one in the knights realized he's a pyromaniac. They figured he's ok with going near open flames because Diluc had a pyro vision and that since he's a cryo user, he can easily smother the flames when he fights pyro enemies

-Sometimes, he'd start fires himself and throw it onto enemies. The knights just thought "oh hey! A self-made melt reaction! Sir Kaeya is so cool-"

- Jean only realized after giving Kaeya babysitting duty to Klee for the first time. They came back with several reformed landscapes, a large basket of dead fish, and faint sounds of people screaming. Kaeya looked absolutely deranged, grinning ear to ear, with sparkles in his eyes, while carrying Klee, who was equally ecstatic

- "Oh no, what have I done." said Jean in horror after realizing the effects of making Kaeya babysit Klee

- kaeya argued with Jean over him spending time with Klee ( Kaeya somewhat won the argument? But he was told that no major damage should happen under his watch or else no Klee time. Good thing he had a cryo vision then)

- He made Klee her handbook as a guide for when and where they could do explosions. Time to teach his little pyromaniac partner the art of cunning.

- Rosaria figured out he likes fire and passes him the lighter to light up her cigarettes. She ended up gifting him a lighter soon after

- Kaeya has some business late at night sometimes, and that gives him the opportunity to watch the darknight hero in action, which means more fire!

- Diluc realizes that Kaeya watches him sometimes and since he knows Kaeya likes to see fire (to a worrying extent, and that really says something when a pyro user thinks so) he lets the other follow him around for a while

- Kaeya also gravitates towards the other pyro users in town. He enjoys watching Amber do target practice, he likes training Bennett, and again with spending time with Klee

this post is inspired by this reblog tag because I immediately started typing when I saw it like a deranged person myself

[foulfeast]

Ohhhh i now remember why i got shy about talking abt ocs

24/7 fear that someone will tell me my ideas are cliche/stupid/bad in some other and it will hurt more bc these are my own creations and not just fun and play

[layalu]

[ria-starstruck]

hiii i finally finished that animatic! hollow knight gjinka designs by @foileadeux, and the song was actually something they originally considered for their hornet animatic!

[squish--squash]

hello hermitblr, I give you a hermitcitizen oc <3

as a follower of @ink-ghoul I have recently seen a lot of hermitcitzen posts from them, especially after they made this post inviting people to make their own ID cards/postcards with their minesona/ocs/etc as hermitcraft citizens! I thought the idea sounded so fun, and decided to give it a try by making a little oc for it :) It was very fun

more notes about my hermitcitizen under the cut!

So as noticed, my citizen is named Azalea! She's a moobloom, and yeah I know they're sadly not a mob in minecraft but I just couldn't help it, I'll always love our lost mob <3

Azalea is a very humble farming hermit towards the East-most edge of the s9 map, where she uses the empty land to create massive farms that she tends to by hand. She is the Shopping District's main crop distributor of wheat, carrots, potatoes, beetroot, and sugar, after all. Among farming, she also enjoys tending to animals, knitting, practicing herbalism, and cooking. She's a very gentle and easy-going soul, and isn't known to fight anyone unless they've really deserved it. She doesn't tend to seek out social interactions but is always happy to talk with someone if they approach her.

Also yes the small flowers in her hair are indeed growing from her, and likes plucking them to give to people that have made her smile (it feels like plucking a hair, it doesn't hurt; the flowers grow fast and shed a lot anyways)

Finally drew something for my magolor

(((Name still kind of in progress)))

Second post about them, yay, and this time we'll be looking at their magic via this rushed drawing I did at school, just before it actually started. (lol)

(sorry the hands looks kinda weird and it's eh)

More detail + bonus drawings under the cut:

Probably going to call it calligromancy cause that makes sense, (it's like the word calligraphy) and basically instead of usual magolor magic all their magic revolves around manipulation of globs of ink. They can craft goopy ink creatures to do things for them (similar to adeline) while they can also create sharp ink projectiles and bombs and things out of ink too. It's like ink bending but with a little more imagination involved.

That is not all. They can probably do more than just that with this skill, but I haven't really thought about it yet lol. Though actually, thinking about magolor epilogue and them did cause me to draw this on the side of the page in maths:

I'm honestly quite proud of the concept, and I like how the ink guys look ^^

[naotoacedetectiveshirogane]

I finished Marineford Arc.

There's a lot to unload here but I don't wanna mark as spoilers so won't say too much:

This Arc broke me and I cried like a baby, watching Ace protect Luffy right when they were so close...

Watching Ace die in Luffy's arms while Luffy begged him to live...

Watching Ace fall to the floor and Luffy break down...while all of Ace's family cried over him. Even Whitebeard started crying...

It's just too much.

Then Marco saying Ace will live on through Luffy, I broke down crying even harder.

WATCHING WHITEBEARD BUNCH THAT BASTARD WAS AWESOME THOUGH.

Then him....okay I should stop here before I do post too many spoilers.

All and all, this arc was definitely the hardest to watch, so many emotions...

This will be the last time (probably) that I post about my One Piece watching lol. I just wanted to post about this arc cause ik it would be the hardest for me to watch. Cause Ace is my favorite character after all and I love him. Luffy being a close second.

Top Five... Len'en Ships!

...I'm just gonna sort these into categories by vibe because I don't have a definite ranking (somehow even less than usual). Here are the ships I tend to fixate on:

Favorite Rivals ship: KuroTsuba, ditto. These two are so weird, confusing, and befitting of this month, gay. Kuroji's obsession with Tsubakura is utterly hilarious, and I like seeing them bicker.

Favorite "Like a Married Couple" ship: YaoSuku. These two are so cute and silly. I like watching this silly haniwa parent this grumpy old snake (with sword attachment issues), not to mention their character development is very sweet. Also, I love how they bicker (mainly on "how" to go about the thingy) lol.

Favorite Story Potential Ship: For some baffling reason, KuroSara. I don't even know why. I guess I just like their fighting and the character development potential if given it. Or maybe I focused so hard I found it weirdly endearing? I don't even know lol. (More a BroTP here than anything though; I don't see them in a very strong romantic context, unlike all the others that are either or.)

Favorite Rarepair: JunSara. Everyone has a rarepair, and this one is mine. They've never even talked, but it's still here lol. I think I just over thought like I tended to, and now here we are lol. Both can make it rain, and are frequent targets of bullying, so maybe that can go somewhere? Something I guess lol.

Favorite Tsuba Ship (that isn't already on this list): YaoTsuba. I just find the flirting angle funny lol. Also, Orochin is just fun to tease like that. So why not? It's also probably a rare pair, but I've seen more fanwork done for it than JunSara, so I'm putting it here lol.

...And those are my top 5 ship picks! That aren't really a top 5, but there are 5 here so I say it counts!
