I feel like I've complained about Tim's email situation in Gotham Knights before (edit: I have), but the truth of it is just so funny.
He's signed up for so many podcasts, video game streamers, and random news alerts; it's just a constant barrage of data going straight into his constantly whirring brain. Hell, he even floats the idea of the Batfamily having their own podcast as a way to correct misinformation about them (which Jason shoots down instantly), and it's made me realize something.
Timothy Drake would be a YouTuber.
In this universe specifically, Timothy Jackson Drake, the heir to Drake Industries and the foster son of the late Bruce Wayne would be a YouTuber.
Think about it. It'd be the perfect cover. Who would ever suspect that some 16-year-old nepo baby with a YouTube channel could ever be Red Robin? You'd have to be mad. I mean, look at him.
Red Robin just dropped out of literal thin air and garotted someone four times his size, and you expect anyone to believe that's the same kid who does 24-hour Minecraft charity streams and occasionally drops 6-hour video essays (his last one was on Lex Luthor's illegal bit mining operation on the moon)?
That kid?
You think that kid is Red Robin?
Ch'yah, okay, sure. And the Joker is funny 🤡.
#gotham knights game#I'm now incorporating this into all my Tim headcanons across the multiverse#twice a week as part of maintaining his Normal Teenager Identity#he streams random shit on YouTube/Twitch#he's got the full gamer set up in the background#LED lights around the ceiling and walls#rainbow keyboard/headset#mini fridge filled with Monster Energy Drinks#(other streamers have 'take a shot' prompts in chat. his audience has 'drink water before you die')#whenever he hosts a charity stream Bruce makes an appearance in chat via the official Wayne Enterprises account#and promises to match whatever they raise#and then hangs about for a bit to cheer Tim on#he's the epitome of 'are ya winning son?' meme#meanwhile off screen#Tim's keeping an eye on a seperate monitor#and helping Babs run remote ops#if his stream suddenly dies (which is does fairly often) he blames it on the Manor having shitty wifi#and that tracks#it's an old house#it's probably FILLED with lead and dead signal spots#in reality Tim killed the stream because Red Robin is needed#and no one will ever know

Writing Notes: Exploring your Setting
(Excerpted from the Young Novelist Workbook) ⚜ Basics: Setting
PART 1: Settings That Create Moods
Mood - the feeling of your novel; its emotional quality.
You can also think of the mood as how you want someone to feel while reading your novel.
Examples: playful, serious, mysterious, tense, warm, dangerous, joyous
The setting of a novel - where and when the story takes place. As you know, most novels have more than one setting.
Usually, the author decides to have one large setting.
Example: Los Angeles in 1995
and then many smaller settings
Examples: The laundromat where the characters hang out on the weekends, or the classroom where they get in a fight
Settings do more than serve as a backdrop to the action in your novel. They can also create or enhance the mood of your novel.
Example
If you wanted to create a creepy mood for a scene in your novel, you could start with something like:
"A dead tree stood alone in a dark field. Its branches creaked in a cold wind, and in the distance, something howled.”
These images remind us of dark, disturbing things, and show the reader that the scene of the novel is “creepy” without having to tell them directly.
Describing the Setting: A Sample Exercise
Describe the settings that would help create each of the moods listed below.
Try to write 2 or 3 sentences for each mood.
Include specific details about the sights, sounds, sensations (and maybe even smells) of the settings you choose:
Creepy, Joyous, Suspenseful/tense
Now make up 2-3 of your own moods and describe a setting that would go along with each one.
The last step is to apply your new skills to your upcoming novel.
Think of a scene from each section of your novel.
Then, write or list details to describe a setting that will help create the right mood for each scene.
Example: You might set your climax on the edge of a crumbling cliff at sunset in the middle of a thunderstorm.
A setting from your set-up:
A setting from your inciting incident:
A setting from your rising action:
A setting from your climax:
A setting from your falling action:
A setting from your resolution:
Now you have settings to enhance the different moods that will be in your novel.
PART 2: Settings That Reinforce Characters
Another advanced writing trick is to show things about your characters just by putting them in specific settings.
Examples: If you were writing about a mysterious person, you might place them in a dark mansion on a hill outside of town; if you were writing about a musician, you might place them in a messy room filled with instruments, speakers, and microphones.
Sample Exercise
For each of the following characters, try to come up with a setting that will reflect or reinforce what you imagine about them.
As you write, try to be as detailed as possible.
Don’t forget colors, sounds, and even smells.
Focus on where the character is.
The shy new kid in town:
A secret scientist superhero:
A character from your novel:
Another character from your novel:

Ponytober Day 18 - Twilight Sparkle (Rainbow) #ponygiriponytober
Another niche reference, this time for Rainbow Roadtrip! I have no idea how a Pegasus can fly with crocheted wing bling on, I guess through the magic of rainbow lasers, but they're a cool accessory nonetheless! 🌈💕🔥

For the requests: maybe Dash and Spitfire are doing some bonding gaming with Scoots? I'm sure they enjoy some console gaming, but maybe they could be convinced to do some board games as well?
I had to color this in because I loved this idea too much. Scootaloo gets some help from Spitfire and learns an important lesson about strategy and playing the long game.
Poor Rainbow gets demolished.
#Rainbow - honestly what did you expect?#You can't let Spitfire and Scootaloo team up and expect not to be beaten swift and quickly#Honestly this is more of a Rainbow vs Spitfire#with little Scootaloo being oblivious. She's just here for the fun#I can absolutely see them do board games#And both Spitfire and Rainbow take it so serious because they are in it to WIN#it's the Wonderbolt drive they all have#Ok but this was such an adorable prompt#I love love love the three of them...#I left it open in the image but I love to think of Spitfire as a sort of step-mom/not really yet but kinda surrogate mom#in the in between state of 'this kid clearly means more to me and I'm spending more time with her than others'#but she's not officially part of the family and a mom (or rather dad) yet#spitdash#spitfire#mlp spitfire#rainbow dash#scootaloo#mlp scootaloo#mlp#my art#requests#ask chim

Text: The basement is storage for five types of starlight, well-sealed jars of Greek fire, and several suspended rainbows. One has gone bad, leaking colors that shouldn’t exist all over the floor.

Y'know, I want a superbat story from an outsider's pov of someone having a visceral realization at like 3am that it's like birds. Brightly colored bird- or alien in this case- showing off and trying to impress potential mate- in this case cryptid bat thing- who is much duller in color but way more likely to straight up fight something.
#superbat#prompts#superbattinson#batman au#dcu#dc#cryptid batman#superman#clark kent#batman#bruce wayne#It even works with the batfam members lmao#majority of the guys are brightly colored and majority of the girls aren't#Local rainbow cryptid obsessed with his goth boyfriend#battinson#is specifically who I am thinking of but it can be any batman lol

Prompt 134
Jaskier sits in the clouds, and sings colors and vibrancy into the world he passes by. His clouds take him across the continent from a bird's eye view. He'll lounge on his stomach, and strum his lute, and sing down below him, and watch the life of the villages he passes become more lush. The villages marvel at the skies, and the plants, and the birds, and the butterflies, and even their own clothing, as it seems more colorful than usual, and it's all because of Jaskier, the rainbow, having passed by. He loves making people happy, with his songs and colors. When he sees a village taken by tragedy, he sends them good tidings in the forms of his rainbows. Beautiful beacons of hope, as well as a stairway for the lost souls. A way to climb to their new home instead of turning into some horrid ghastly creature witchers hunt. ... Witchers. Now that's something that intrigues Jaskier. He's never been able to catch one. They seem to run from his colors. His songs. Sulking all alone in the gray. But when he catches one, he promises himself he'll make sure the witcher sees every beauty possible. Jaskier climbs down the staircase of a rainbow and decides to nap in his favorite meadow. Jaskier wakes up to a sword against his neck. Hm. He looks up and spots- "A witcher!" He grins. "What... are you?" "I am a rainbow!" "...What?" "I'm a rainbow! Would you like to see? I could make some things more colorful, or paint in the sky, or make a rainbow to show you-" "You needn't go through the trouble." "Pleaaasse? Please can I show you!? You witchers are always in the grayest parts of the world! Let me give you color, please? Please, mister witcher?" "I was sent here to kill you. The nearest village believes you to be a troublesome fae intent on tricking them." "All because I made their begonias pinker?" "It appears so." "Well, I'd rather like to ignore the 'kill me' part going forward with our new companionship." "Our what?" "I'm going to show you beauty, Witcher. Just you wait!"
#geraskier#geralt x jaskier#the witcher#geralt x dandelion#geralt loves his bard!#witcher fanfiction#fanfiction prompts#writing prompts#requited unrequited love#friends to lovers#Geralt meeting Jaskier is so confused btw#“He looks humanish but hes dressed REAL funky and his hair is sparkly and he just RADIATES chaos”#“also why is the grass all dead except it's SUPER green where he lays?????”#Jaskier makes sure Roach only gets the REDDEST of apples#Geralt has to babysit his bard because his bard is literally a walking rainbow who doesn't know how to person yet

whumpee who won't stop stealing things
stealing little things from Whumper to gain a false sense of control over things
Of course, it can't be things that would be noticed. A spare button that was dropped and left on the floor. A ripped piece of cloth abandoned on a coffee table. Safety pins forgotten out on a desk.
Maybe Whumper finds it, takes it away from Whumpee. They can't let Whumpee get a big head and think it's okay to take what isn't theirs.
Or maybe Whumper just laughs at how pathetic Whumpee's grasp for control has become. "Keep your collection, Whumpee. See what good those things do for you--we all know they're useless."
How is that going to affect Whumpee once they're out of the situation? Caretaker gives them everything they might need, and they still steal, out of habit and the need for control. Caretaker can keep offering to get them more of whatever they're stealing, but the lack of it isn't really the problem.

once asked the question do you think Liu qingge do a sonic rainboom now I may ask could Xie lian do a sonic rainboom? And who in mdzs do you think could do a sonic rainboom?
Also I feel like I'm spamming ur asks I'm so sorry
Out of all the characters, I think (post-series) Xie Lian is the most likely to actually survive flying at supersonic speeds and could theoretically get the actual "boom" if not the colour
(Hua Cheng, on the other hand, would be more than happy to supply the rainbows)
Wei Wuxian is the most likely to ATTEMPT it and inevitably blow himself up in the process (the only thing going boom here is Jiang Cheng's patience)
#tgcf#mdzs#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#yunmeng bros#xie lian#hualian#sonic rainboom#wwx#mxtx#my art#''this will be quicker than my last rainboom picture i'll whip them up quickly before bed'' ha.#i think ultimately i'm team ''nah only rainbow dash or an equivalent could do a true sonic rainboom'' but it's fun to play with#i do appreciate the excuse to just go ham on the colours though how often do i get an excuse like this to draw rainbows#i feel like i haven't coloured like this since i was about seven it's a blast#technically i don't think any of the tgcf cast flies though? so it makes it a bit more complicated#but hua cheng has butterflies and determination to make this happen!!!#seriously don't apologize it's impossible to ''spam'' my asks every time my inbox gets a lil 1 next to it my heart grows three sizes#the worst that'll happen is i'm busy or uninspired and might not respond to your ask right away#i still have a bunch of asks/prompts backlogged in there - i just sit on them until i'm in the mood and i appreciate them all!

A Guide to Descriptive Writing
Descriptive writing makes reading a more visual experience.
Utilize descriptive writing, to show not tell your story to readers.
However, it is important to note that if passages of descriptive writing are too long or too complex, they will slow your story down.
Alternatively, the story's development and readability fall flat if you do not use a variety of types of words.
Take time to choose your words carefully, expand your vocabulary, and practice descriptive writing.
Below are some tips that may improve your descriptive writing.
Try Using Metaphors
Metaphors compare one thing to another.
Utilizing this technique is not saying the objects you’re comparing are the same, but that your audience can note shared traits between the two.
Example: Jordan is a living map.
Explanation: Of course, Jordan is not literally a living map. What the map and Jordan have in common is geographical information and the ability to help others navigate locations without getting lost. What the writer has done here is demonstrate to readers that Jordan has an excellent sense of direction.
Play with Similes
Similes also compare one object to another but discuss one thing as being like another.
You will often find words such as “like,” “so,” “than,” or “as” used in similes.
Example: Diego soars across the soccer field like a jet.
Explanation: Again, this is not a literal statement. The author shows us that Diego is a fast runner and creates a vivid image in the reader's mind that would not have been present if they had simply stated that Diego is fast.
Make a Statement with Hyperboles
Hyperboles are exaggerated statements.
They are used to make a point.
Example: Math class lasts a million hours.
Explanation: Your readers will know there is no way a class can realistically last a million hours, but they will understand the feeling of time dragging on when you’re doing something you do not enjoy.
Use Sensory Details
Adding sensory details is a great way to help your reader experience your story.
Depending on the character and story, sensory details may include sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste.
Be careful not to overload passages with sensory information.
Only use what is needed to communicate with the audience.
Example: Cold, wet glue dripped from the bottle onto her fingers; the tangy, chemical smell flooded her nose. She rubbed it between her thumb and long finger, relishing the transition from silky gliding fingers to tacky digits to peeling the cast of her fingerprint away from her skin with the satisfying crinkle of crisp paste.
Explanation: In this description of glue on skin, readers encounter details of touch and smell. Although this scene is not happening to readers at this moment, they can easily recall the smell of glue and the feeling of it between their fingers.
Choose Vivid Language
Choosing vivid language can form a clearer image in your reader’s mind.
For instance, you may select words that more accurately convey what you’re aiming to communicate, whether you are simply searching for a synonym to vary language or trying to locate a word with a more nuanced meaning.
Example: “The knight entered the kingdom on the back of a horse.” vs. “The knight stormed into the kingdom on the back of a mighty stallion.”
Explanation: Having a knight storm in on a stallion rather than enter on a horse is a much stronger, more heroic image. Additionally, stallion may be a better word choice than horse because it is specific. The word stallion tells the reader the horse is male and could be used for breeding, which, since this is a knight’s horse, could be relevant since it could be used to breed warhorses.
Incorporate Feelings
Crafting a visual experience for readers marks successful descriptive writing, but you also want your readers to experience your work emotionally.
For your story to reach its full potential, you need to incorporate feelings, whether those feelings are positive or negative.
Example: Desiree felt the weight of the empty space in bed pressing down and stealing her breath like a knee to the chest. She was cemented in place, limbs unfeeling, as she floated above the bed tethered to her body but no longer secure within.
Explanation: Here, the author shows the readers a woman dealing with the pain of grief and the hollowness that sometimes accompanies it. Most readers have experienced some level of loss in their lifetime and will understand and emotionally connect with Desiree.

Ponytober Day 22 - Rainbow Dash Sleepwalker (Redesign)
I did mild redesigns of the characters I’ve put into Sleepwalker, and Rainbow’s was my favorite! I always felt like she needed more of a cloudy/thundery addition to her design, and although it’s a very minimal change, I like it a lot! (also Rainbow is canonically the smallest of the main 6, u can’t change my mind >:]) .

For the request thing; Rainbow introducing the girlfriend and/or daughter to the parents
This might have been the funniest idea that came to my mind lmao. From the first time she saw Rainbow's parents at various WB shows and appearances, Spitfire anticipated what meeting them as the official girlfriend would be like. She just vastly underestimated the intensity of it all.
I thought her parents would be either super enthusiastic about Spitfire (i.e. super proud that of course their girl managed to catch the interest of her little role model crush) or super critical (i.e. no one is good enough for our perfect little girl). I went with the former while still imagining that her parents see Rainbow as superior. "Oh yes, your figurines are super nice. But have you seen the high quality of our custom made figurines of our little daughter?"
#what a funny prompt#Scootaloo would have been SUPER adorable as well#But I kinda imagined that they'd know her way earlier when Rainbow still has a sort of sister position#spitdash#spitfire#mlp spitfire#rainbow dash#mlp#my art#sketches#requests#ask chim#honestly this is the first actual sketch I uploaded#good practice because I tend to work too much on these#also PLEASE excuse my horrible handwriting
