#patch appreciation

Hi, It was my birthday 6 days ago.

It's really late ik, i was busy with Uni and tests 😭 I wanted to make a post to appreciate all the tumblr and game creators that made this year worth it for me! This year was a bit of a dumpster fire for me, I've been struggling with shitty thoughts and depleting motivation but I've gotten through it with the help of video games and stories. These include the visual novels and original characters that I've come to appreciate and love. I've always loved stories and attached myself to fictional characters (haha not very healthy but yea) and seeing so many different and interesting original characters on tumblr is very inspiring to me. It's motivated me to draw more often and to think of my own stories. To all the creators I've mentioned, Thank you. Thank you for saving my creativity and giving me something to be happy about. I'll continue to support your creations :)

Characters seen in the picture (and their wonderful creators):

Garret (The guy on the top left with the turtle neck) - @crimsonhydrangeavn

Silas (The elven man next to Garret)- @meo-eiru

Leumin (The man staring at the candle)- @hime-bee

Ray (The man smoking)- @concreteparasite

Heimos (The man side-eyeing Ray)- @stygian-eye-stories

Dae-Hyun (The man on the bottom left)- @yandereworlds

Cove- (The man with green hair)- @gb-patch

Keith and Tenebris (The duo next to Cove)- @dualityvn

Zecharias (The man doodling on the side)- @letmeremindyouvn 

Please take a look at these creators and their work!!! 😊

was playing through stormveil last night and got invaded by a patches cosplayer who practically solo-cleared what I had remaining of the level and left rainbow stones by all the important items (no deception whatsoever) and i haven't been able to get "he wouldn't fucking say that" out of my head all day

I know we mostly only get little hints of them throughout, but I really loved this interaction between these two? Like. I already talked about it from Dan Heng's side over here. But! I'm dying over this part about Boothill, and just how much he trusts and feels he can rely on Dan Heng!!

"Note," he says, about his casual identity theft fjkdlsajlk

Because when we first arrive on Penacony, March 7th and the Trailblazer are confused about the check in details. But Dan Heng caught on immediately.

It's stated multiple times in multiple ways: Galaxy Rangers generally work alone. Boothill is helping out Rappa because he owes her a favor, and shortly afterwards, he returns to his own Hunt. He coordinates with Robin and March 7th because he comes across them by happenstance. Dan Heng is the only person that Boothill purposely reaches out to, and he does it in a way that only Dan Heng would figure out.

And it works! Even though they aren't able to actually contact each other, Boothill's secret note left for Dan Heng is the first sign to him that something is amiss in Penacony, and to stay on guard. And it's only when Rappa says she's with Boothill that Dan Heng decides to truly trust her and lend her a hand.

The "sweet and melodious words" part is killing me fjkdlsjakfdja

Without the Nameless' aid, the Galaxy Rangers probably wouldn't have gotten nearly as far as they did. It was a group project. It took the combined effort of a lot of people. But it started here with these two! And even without being able to see or speak to each other, Boothill and Dan Heng somehow still manage to work together and make all of this happen! Off nothing but their belief in each other alone!!

When something big is going down, there is no one Boothill wants on his side more than Dan Heng, and that's just so!! SO!!! OUGH

"Weeeh! I wanna recruit Minthara on a good playthrough! Weeeh! I don't like the ultimatum and want to keep both Minthara and Halsin! Weeeh! I wanna make Minthara good! Weeeh! I don't want Minthara to break up with me!" Minthara deserves more content but none of these things are at all what she needs or deserves. No, these are all things that you want for yourself, but do absolutely nothing for her. This is one of the biggest L's in the game and it will forever enrage me because I just know it will never happen.

Minthara deserves to confront Orin like all the other companions do with their abusers. She deserves to scream and yell at Orin. She deserves to cut at her the same way Orin did, make her bleed and scream in pain. Minthara deserves to torture Orin, just as she did her in the mind flayer colony. Minthara deserves the right to roll up to the Temple of Bhaal and beat the shit out of Orin with her bare hands. Leave Orin begging for mercy in which Minthara will not even give her a drop. To slam Orin down on that altar and slice her throat, offer her up as a sacrifice to the father she is so blindly devoted to.

And yes, Minthara would be afraid. She would be TERRIFIED. Despite how strong and powerful Minthara is, she is also the only one afraid of Orin. Unlike Ketheric, or Gortash, or Sarevok, she is the only one who fully acknowledges just how dangerous Orin actually is and does not underestimate her. She will walk down into that temple, intending to duel Orin with a massive disadvantage because she is terrified.

Minthara choked when seeing Orin again in the mind flayer colony. She choked when seeing Orin as an imposter, throwing her deep into the ocean of paranoia and fear. And she is so entrenched in paranoia that it actually becomes palpable to everyone around her, even you. She describes herself as paranoid, but this is the first that you actually see how paranoid she is. And she choked again when Orin kidnapped someone in camp, making her feel inadequate, making a mockery of her for being unable to protect one of her own. And every day that passes, the more and more likely that the victim is going to die and she has doubts on their survival.

At every possible avenue in which Minthara could have done something or said something about Orin, she froze in place with fear. But she's had enough. She cannot be afraid of Orin forever and she doesn't want to be. One way or another, Orin has to die and she wants to get over that fear. She needs to know that Orin is dead, for herself.

This would also make the alurlssrin confession all the more impactful. She wants to tell you that she loves you in the best way that she can because of the very high likelihood that she will never have another chance to do so. She would beg you to come with her as you give her the courage. She has the courage to face her fears and confront her tormentor, because she knows she has you in her corner. If you have the courage to stand up to the very gods themselves, then she can stand up to Orin. Romanced or not, your presence alone is enough to give her the strength to do something she would otherwise be too terrified to do.

Minthara deserves the honor to solo duel Orin in a fight to the death. Minthara deserves the right to achieve vengeance for herself. No, I do not care that this confrontation would conflict with a Durge playthrough. In fact, it would provide a phenomenal source of some interesting, and toxic, drama between Durge and Minthara. Especially if they're in a relationship. This also does not mean that Minthara killing Orin instead of Durge would not have its consequences (because it most certainly will). Even if Minthara does not fight Orin, it would be so much better if Minthara was just given the fucking chance to yell at Orin like all the other companions in their personal quests.

i can't stop thinkng about kristen this episode. her kindness. her honesty. she sees a grieving man; a man she hates, a man who has wronged her and hurt her, a man who she would be well within her right to vow to destroy, to laugh at his pain. and she says "it's too sad not to tell him". she tells him the truth about what she knows. a hard truth, but a necessary truth. he doesn't believe her, but she tells him anyway, because she cares. because this is a world barely a step from hers.

she talks to her brother, and she doesn't try to make a grand gesture. she doesn't try to heroically convince him to turn away. she empathises, she's been there. she tells him she understands. and she meets his doubt with courage, with a hand to hold, with a lantern to light up the overwhelming darkness. she offers him the hand he needs when he's too afraid to ask for it.

she talk to jawbone. she sees how hard a time he's having, and she reaches out. she helps, and she tells him that her plan was to take advantage of him, but she couldn't go through with it. she's honest and kind and giving at every fucking turn, and she tries again and again and again.

it's in the way she would still reach out and try to reconnect with her parents, who let her down and betrayed her trust and innocence. The way she insisted that buddy be revived, and was hopeless when she could do nothing to help. for all her chaos and bits, kristen is one of the most heartfelt and genuine characters in dimension 20 and i fully fully believe that.

Kinda crying rn over the way Patches just loves you so so much T_T She's like ''Oh your activities and places? … Our activities and places :3" It's too presh! Just curious, don't feel you have to answer: do you consider yourself to be like Patches' mom, or are you guys like roommates and besties, or is there some other vibe? Personally I always felt like my cats were like my younger siblings :') Anyway please give Patches a smooch on her little baby cat forehead from me, and have a lovely day! (Sorry if this sends twice, tumblr is tumblring atm)

My friends got mad at me recently for buying really cheap shitty beer (I LIKE the shitty beer okay) so I told them these are the kind of sacrifices I have to make these days, as a single mother to a cat.

But beyond that joke I don't think I see myself as Patches's mom, or even as a sibling. Patches is Patches!! She's my little sweetheart. She's my little Patches. She's here and I love her and I give her little treats and I miss her when I'm at work, like right now.

I will give her a smooch when I return home.

You mean Ozone? Here you go! I had a lot of fun with this and it gave me a great chance to plan out my own battle vest.

Some more patch ideas I've had for a while. I tried out a few bone designs, my favourites are the bigger ones, they're supposed to be a femur and a tibia and fibula, I think they'll look cool on a pant leg >:)

The upper longer quote is one I made up, and the lower one is adapted from a Wendell Berry quote:

“The soil is the great connector of lives, the source and destination of all. It is the healer and restorer and resurrector, by which disease passes into health, age into youth, death into life. Without proper care for it we can have no community, because without proper care for it we can have no life.”

I've done a couple dandelions before, but this specific dandelion patch is very inspired by this: https://ryegarden.tumblr.com/post/722650910186192896/be-like-the-dandelion-unkillable-joyous

The ace cards represent asexuality. The ace of clubs represent being a grey ace, and ace of hearts is associated with being a romantic ace.

Update on will wood patch

[consuocrochet]

Recently finished my second handmade Punisher themed embroidery patch! These were a lot of fun to make and I learned a lot. Slowly getting better :)

First one is kinda self explanatory imo. If fascist assholes can try to put a cop flag on the punisher skull I can put him on the gay flag 🏳️‍🌈

The second one I thought of while watching Frank's plotline in the Daredevil TV show, where during the time of his trial we see some protesters with signs supporting him. It made me think about other in-universe, provocative signs of support people could be making themselves, such as homemade patches like this!

And of course it's always just fun to say one of your favourite fictional characters, who definitely did murder a lot of people, did nothing wrong 💜
