What was that you said about memory? "A monster," was it?
#iwtvedit#iwtv#interview with the vampire#louis de pointe du lac#armand#lestat de lioncourt#daniel molloy#anyway obviously these are at different periods and contexts in their lives but nonetheless#i'm fascinated by the different versions of characters we see filtered through who is telling the story at that moment#how they remember themselves and how they remember others#and the gaps in this set are just as interesting! season 3 maybe i can do a follow up#how does lestat see himself. how does he see armand or louis#how would daniel see him? etc

Solas x Lavellan
Dragon age the Veilguard
Tel banal, ara'ma
It won’t be terrible if you’re with me.
Available as print here.
#I enjoyed this process So MUCH#And what a process it was. In one wip Solas looked a little bit too beat up... to balance the line of disheveled and on the brink of death#Is a delicate line#And painting these floating stones was such a joy! Good practice too as I don't often draw spacious and atmospheric scenes#I should do it more often. I was inspired by the concept art of Dai and datv. The amount of stories you can tell with the colors! LOVE#I tried a new technique for painting the skin and it was challenging. I layered transparent colors over a black and white shadow sketch.#A technique usually kept for oilpainting but it translated surprisingly well in digital media#And side note. Aren't these the wettest eyes of Thedas? I'm proud.#Solavellan#solasmance#dragon age the veilguard#dragon age#solas#solas dragon age#solas x female lavellan#Post datv#datv spoilers#datv fanart#Solavellan fanart#Da4#da: the veilguard#veilguard spoilers#my art#Solavellan heaven#<- new tagg we went from hell to heaven ^^#DazeChroma#Daze chroma#Myart#digital drawing#Digital painting

Your first initial impressions of any Twst character vs your current feelings about them?
honestly, my perception of pretty much every character went through some metamorphosis of "this guy looks like a jerk" to "oh, he's a stupid jerk? now hold on." it's all about that balancing act between a dark brooding asshole and a dark brooding asshole who is also totally ridiculous, and it really does make ALL the difference.
perhaps most ironically, I've mentioned before that I was absolutely not into the Diasomnias at first, because the impression the website gave pre-release was somehow even less favorable than for everyone else and I was mad at Lilia for getting my hopes up for a token girl). and then we got their stories and, well, I kind of just haven't stopped thinking about them since. 🤷
also, I went in thinking that Crowley was going to be. y'know. competent at his job. a helpful guide. a mysterious yet caring mentor figure, a fitting leader for this band of delicate young magic waifs with their fancy little magic outfits and their perfect, perfect hair. I've never been so glad to be wrong.
#art#twisted wonderland#sorry not sorry for being kinda crowley-focused lately#'but he's terrible and useless' E X A C T L Y#(i actually actively avoided reading the diasomnia personal stories at first because i was convinced i wouldn't like them)#(the folly of the past indeed)#(then i saw someone be like 'yeah lilia is silver's dad' and i was like...excusé. and the rest was inevitable)#but yeah this is just. twst in general tbh#thinking back to late 2019/early 2020 when it first came out#i went in basically...intrigued but apprehensive#the prerelease promos were EXTREMELY vague on what the story was and what the characters were like#everyone still thought kalim was gijinka iago and also no one was 100% sure if you could date anyone or not#it was so absolutely weird-sounding i HAD to try it even though i didn't really care for the characters and i knew i'd drop it after a week#smash cut to 2025 where i'm writing tag essays in breathless excitement over the themes present in the character arcs#me just before march 2020: well i can already tell i'm gonna hate malleus#me today: this is tsunotarou he's my special little guy. my dingbat son. i'm so excited to see him in pajamas next week.#i hope we get canon confirmation on whether or not he needs to sleep with special pillows because of his horns

I could wax poetic about why Viktor's League backstory is inherently more interesting and more thematically resonant than where they went with him in Arcane season 2, but the cold hard truth is
a man covered in grease and probably blood who builds his own body out of scraps with his own two hands, can in fact build any contraption out of dinted metal sheets and a few screws including a deathray, performs deeply inadvisable operations on desperate but consenting people with his own tools, generates a cult following against his wishes because of his ability to inadvisably help people but the power's all his now anyway so he may as well, wants to clean up and save the undercity but is (only sort of) misunderstood as a walking Geneva Convention violation a freak and a supervillain, torments his arch-nemesis on at least a weekly basis and probably homoerotically hunts him for sport, had his life's work misattributed to people in the ruling class and is angry and tragic about it forever, tries to rip out his own emotions and is unsuccessful but pretends like he was not, is actually oddly kind to children, and is at the end of the day still just some guy,
is just hotter okay
#arcane#viktor#viktor arcane#machine herald#arcane critical#viktor the machine herald#and yes it IS more interesting and more thematically resonant and doesn't unnecessarily launch the story's stakes into orbit#as usual i'm mashing his 2011 and 2016 lore together but that seems the natural course these days because there's good in both#the conversation around viktor's league changes is unfortunately mostly about appearances from what i can tell when really#the issue is themes and story and what is ACTUALLY cooler and more interesting as character writing#and not just -bigger stakes are automatically better- because they are really really not

Sometimes I remember he died, he was dead for real, but SO MANY people loved him SO MUCH that he was brought back to life and got to have so many more adventures and get old and eventually retire and yes it's a fictional character but sometimes I think about that and I have to lie down and have a cry about it. We love you Sherlock Holmes
#I'm actively holding back tears I'm not even joking#so many people love him so much#so many people who are Long Dead loved him so much#if i would have a time machine#and assuming i could find one/ some of those rabid fans#i would go right after the empty house drops#and tell them thank you thank you thank you so much#and that in more than a hundred years people still love him#and talk about him#and write their own stories about him#and dissect the original ones#i do wonder if this is still gonna be happening in another 100 years#i hope so#sherlock holmes#acd canon#the final problem#woah i really had An Emotion huh

Swift travels. [Bonus art]
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#a-yuan#wei wuxian#lan wangji#This is my 666th post and *boy* has it ever lived up to it's cursed number. That's a story for another day though.#I might be the only person who finds this punchline funny but I'm commiting to it anyway.#Yes - it is plot convenient timing to have there be a character who happens to have fast transportation when disaster strikes.#It's also something I appreciate writers doing because sometimes you want your scenes to move along.#Cultivators zoom around on swords and it's basically a fast travel system.#I don't think we get a lot of information about how far apart places are-#-except in that one scene about the distance between Lotus Pier and Xuanwu Cave.#What...*is* the speed of sword transportation? I have to imagine it can't be too much faster than a moderate jog.#Or maybe cultivation magic also runs a current to your feet that creates a magnet like effect to the sword.#Okay. Out of this mind pit. I'm changing the topic.#I like to imagine that the real reason A-yuan is there is because he has an incredible sense of smell. And WWX's olfactory senses are weak#A-yuan is like a earthquake detecting dog - but for smoke.#Wait they have dogs that help detect smoke too...#Okay he's like a dog that detects smoke. But for a necromancer's experiments going berserk.#...Did they tell a-yuan about this talisman or has it happened before? Oh no...another mind pit....

Scholarly peak is catching up on recent literature
#bingqiu#shen qingqiu#luo binghe#svsss#sqq#lbh#my art#which is honestly just to say that i've finished the other two print books i was reading#and am now prepared to leap feet first into svsss bk4#i succeeded in holding off for an entire two weeks. i have the conviction of a wet paper towel.#lets see bk4 was described as - what? - an ''angst and smut pile''??#i am very much looking forward to this#i was promised a story with my snake boy#because i am very much not over zhuzhi-lang's fate so this had better be A REALLY NICE HAPPY ONE FOLKS#anyway have sqq and lbh cuddling and reading as i project on them#i like to assume that as time goes on sqq is able to relax his persona a bit more around lbh#i think he should get to cuddle and bitch about shitty novels#but man sqh is really the ONLY source of any books that have an even slightly modern cadence/style i have a feeling sqq would be very keen#though if i'm being honest i really wonder if sqh could ever bring himself to write fiction again#if you're A Writer it tends to be hard to RESIST you just get an itch to tell a story#but also like... the fear that all of this could happen again... or that the characters you're creating might be REAL and SUFFERING...#yeah... i honestly suspect he can't write anymore and that it honestly probably sucks a lot... but for the sake of this joke he is :P

I DID IT I GOT MY PINK HAYATE now I am never doing that again!
(at least until they give me, like, a frilly unicorn Kamui or something)
#art#ride kamens#last note#i did this SO fast i'm sorry#i was just so excited i actually managed it!#look as a super casual f2p player who has never made a chaostone higher than a+#350k points is a frikkin ACHIEVEMENT#but how could i say no when i got lucky enough to pull the fancy ribbons-and-lace birdboy#and then they tell me i can turn him pink on top of that?#(i'm definitely not still bitter about missing out on a certain other card in another game NOPE)#plus. i mean. i also just kinda wanted to see if i could.#but now i have pretty pink perfume hayate on my home screen and i am Fulfilled#i haven't even read the story yet because i've been so focused on grinding out tickets i have NO context for why he is so fancy#now i have literally thousands of event seals i have to figure out what to do with in the next few hours. hm.#i also have to keep telling myself to save my diamonds and not do just oooone more pull to see if i can get a shion to turn blue...#it's not going to happen and it's not worth it#but whaaaat iiiif...

Day 28 - Redesign a character(s)/AU thing - Cyn and N(oah)
so umm.. yeah
SURPRISE!
these aint fankids
I may or may not be working on an AU type thing where several characters swap roles :,D
#one thing I will say for now#Cyn and N are siblings here#you get a cookie if you can tell me who their parents are#I know swap au's have been done before#I'm very late to the party#this would just be my take on it#might take a minute to iron out story points#but feel free to send any questions#it helps me worldbuild#ill try to think of a better name for it than just “swap”#murder drones#murder drones cyn#murder drones n#murder drones noah#murder drones swap au#inktober 2024#toma art
