When I liked an extrovert, I could never tell if he was interested or just being friendly (spoilers: it was NOT the first option). It was super confusing all the time bc I kept getting all these signals like prolonged eye contact and inside jokes and not knowing if they meant anything.

Meanwhile with the introverted guy who's been hanging around lately, I've been like, "He stuck around at a social event to finish a conversation with me. Two days later, he sent me a reel on Instagram even though he isn't online a lot. He's gonna ask me out." And I was RIGHT

Conversations about literature

[ok-computer-111]

plotting on someone sounds so devious like i’m plotting to have a wonderful relationship (if they’re into that) filled with eccentric trinkets, gleeful little jokes and cosy chats

[truethes]

honestly small but daily reminder that as long as it's not creepy/illegal its great to ship whatever you want! doesn't matter if it's two characters who have never even met before or the most popular ship in your fandom, if it brings you joy and you enjoy writing it, don't be ashamed of doing so.

Is it normal for a therapist to be like "Aww but you are so young and pretty, things can't be that bad :)"

*crams cure down his throat*

You okay buddy?

-- @michaels-gardenview-blog

Finn chokes slightly as 'cure' is shoved into his throat, he coughs for a moment before going silent. Finn trembles as his eyes become less blood shot and the ichor polluted water in his head starts becoming clearer.

H-Huhhh..-

Finn seemed to be able to form semi-actual words instead of mumbles and growls.

Please 😈 + 💐 + 🍷?

😈 Kinktober - Virgin Jake

“You know,” Jake murmurs, pressing soft, biting kisses, along Bradley’s bare shoulder as he leaned against his husband’s back while he cooked them dinner, “we could role play it.” He smirked as he felt Bradley jolt at his words. “Uh,” clearing his throat, Bradley gave a little shimmy to get Jake to back up as he turned over his shoulder to quirk a brow at him. “Roleplay at what, baby?” “You being my first,” he teases as he moves back to drop back down onto his seat at their island. “Pretending I’ve never felt another’s hands on my body.” He grins smugly, sharply, as he sees himself get tone lock as Bradley gives a full body shiver, as his eyes darken with desire and interest.

💐 serial killer Jake - hangster

Why the fuck would Jake do that?  It was the only question he could feel running round and round and round in his head as he stared at his lumpy, shitty bed he’d picked up from a frat house where he was sitting on the floor.  Who the hell just did that and didn’t say anything at all?

🍷 Jake's family causes the hangster break up

directly following this ask!

“Not really,” Jake chuckles darkly but sends the other man a grin. “But I’ll figure it out. Eventually.” Vince nods letting out a low, long sigh. “Well, I sure as shit can’t fault you for wanting to try and fix things with your ex.” He pauses to eye Jake before asking, “Does he want to? Fix things that is."

Lol okay don't worry, I see all your asks and I'm intending to answer them. I've been pretty needlessly distracted (then straight-up depressed) in the last few months.

I'm going to try on a new drawing software for that though, because I'm trying to quit Adobe, so we'll see how that goes.

In the meantime, know that Bianca wishes you a happy new year, and has been drawing up Guardian Angels for the oppressed populations in Palestine ("A genocide, I mean come on, even if it wasn't about the whole birthplace of Jesus thing I'd have to") and all around the world, and is sending them by midnight, get ready for some worldwide Holy Judgement and douchebags in crosses yelling about the apocalypse. And Cartoon Cat set up a candle for the future of mascot horror.

Nevertheless, thank you so much for your love and patience, stay safe, and spend a happy new year.

very fun announcement that after a whole year's break, chapter 2 of Pinprick, my silly little poncleprophet fic, is now up.... ^_^

"That's what's getting to you? That's the first thing you're interested in right now? Dirt?"

note that there's formatting errors because of my heavy use of italics and how ao3 hates italics but i truly don't care atm. sorry if u see awkward spacing but it happens any time i go to edit a tiny little thing in the chapter i am tired of fixing it 💔

Hello! I’ve been thinking about your stories lately, and got my mind wondering about how you come up with your ideas. What inspired you to make Felix and the Dauntless story? It looks amazing and I can’t wait to see more of it!

Sorry it took so long to respond! I kept coming back to reread this ask I'm just,,, so happy to hear you're interested/excited about Dauntless!!!!! :DDDD

For most of my/our stories (most of the wips are collabs with my sister lol) it usually starts as drawing inspiration from Other stories. We'll watch/read them and go "that was really good, I can see why they made the choices they did narratively, but wouldn't it be fun/cooler if..." then we kinda end up building an entirely new story around that concept. Sometimes they're completely unhinged from the canon cause we love making aus xD

Dauntless is weird in that sense, as it doesn't actually have any origin concept. We wanted each of the main characters in the Keepers saga to come from different backgrounds, and we thought having a cyberpunk ex-spy would be cool. 😂

Thematically it draws a lot from my personal life experience just... dramatized and exported onto a young man living in a futuristic dystopia lol From there the plot kinda ended up being a hodgepodge of all my favorite tropes respun into the sci-fi setting, as this is the first story I've worked on that's not been a fantasy!

The way I make up stories is very character driven, the plot forms as I think about the characters- who they are, who they need to become, and what fears/misconceptions/circumstances they need to overcome to get there. Building a plot always feels like a logic puzzle to me of juggling each member of the cast's arcs and story beats 😂 So most of the plot started from looking at the kind of character I wanted Felix to be at the end of his arc and going "okay what kind of backstory would produce a guy like that?" Then throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what stuck. (This bad boy has gone through so many revisions lol)

I've finally got it worked down to the point where I'm outlining episode/season structure and BOY have I got to tell you that feels good 😭 I am SO excited to share Felix and his pals with the world and it literally means so much to me they've already got a collection of people waiting to watch the show 😭😭

Thank you so so much for your support!!!

Hi, I came to report to you that your ql music research is rubbing off on me 😅 I was watching ep 2 of Ploy's Yearbook (for Joong and Namtan 😍), when suddenly I recognized a piece of music!! But I couldn't place it, so I tried to remember which series have I watched so many times that I'm familiar with the music. I reached the tentative conclusion that it must be from SIMM or possibly from Hidden Agenda (but I definitely connected it to JoongDunk). Maybe I need to do a complete rewatch of both series to confirm, what a hardship 😂 I just wanted to tell you that maybe aside from being a JD vampire bl truther, this will be your other legacy

oh my god, that's amazing!!!!!! i LOVE to hear that!!!!! i'm actually planning on making a side blog focused on shared royalty free music in thdramas, but that's something that is earliest going to happen in the summer if not in the winter. i wanna work my way through some of my fave shows first, because those are the soundtracks i'm more likely to recognize and i just wanna have them on my google doc before i go put everything in tumblr posts (which is also gonna take forever bc my google doc is currently at 100 pages worth of entries sjkfkjsfdj)

aaaaanyway, re: music in ploy's yearbook

was it by any chance desert caravan by ludvig moulin? i haven't watched ep2 yet (i was actually about to go watch it when your message came in and i couldn't help answering it first kjdkfdg), but i did see a clip of it earlier in jimmy's insta story and the scene had this music in the background. it has come up in episode 1 already as well. if it was this, then good job on connecting it to a joongdunk show because it actually has come up on hidden agenda a couple of times! i'm still missing the last 3 episodes on my music collection, but these are the time stamps so far:

ep1 pt1 - 0:13

ep3 pt2 - 0:20

ep4 pt1 - 4:32

ep8 pt4 - 8:08

And here are the time stamps for ep1 of ploy's yearbook:

ep1 pt1 - 11:10 / 17:41

ep1 pt2 - 1:50

ep2 pt1 - 9:38

ep2 pt2 - 0:27

ep2 pt3 - 3:09

ep2 pt4 - 3:07

you might also have recognized get up on that horse by spring gang as the music that plays in bad buddy at the beginning of ep7 when pat is in the car (ep7 pt1 - 1:20) or also in ep12 when patpran claim they broke up (ep12 pt3 - 3:45). oh but wait, it's definitely connected to joongdunk, you said? well, as it turns out this one has actually come up in star in my mind a lot. like. A LOT:

ep1 pt2 - 5:55

ep2 pt1 - 4:00

ep2 pt4 - 1:02

ep3 pt2 - 1:15

ep3 pt3 - 1:55

ep3 pt4 - 1:17

ep7 pt4 - 0:48

ep8 pt1 - 4:33 / 5:41

ep8 pt3 - 5:07

and here are the time stamps for ep1 of ploy's yearbook again for reference:

ep1 pt1 - 13:00

ep1 pt2 - 2:26

ep2 pt1 - 8:37

and here, have a bonus because why the fuck not: moonshiner's turn by martin landström. this one has shown up in ep1 pt4 of both bad buddy as well as 23.5 degrees. also found in ep1 of ploy's yearbook at:

ep1 pt1 - 18:53

ep1 pt3 - 6:16

ep2 pt1 - 0:35 / 17:30

well, i'm gonna go watch the new episode now! feel free to check back on this post in a couple of hours, i might edit it or add a reblog with all my findings about the music in ep2 😂

edit:

i've added the ep2 time stamps to the aforementioned ones! and i found new music as well!!

maybe the one you recognized as a joongdunk series music in ep2 was winning hand by ealot. it came up in star in my mind a couple of times:

ep1 pt4 - 3:00

ep2 pt2 - 2:20

ep4 pt2 - 9:16

ep8 pt3 - 4:17

it featured in ep2 of ploy's yearbook at following timestamps:

ep2 pt1 - 16:58

ep2 pt3 - 3:45

and there was some more bad buddy music as well (diggin' the drama by the new fools) and it amazes me that my brain immediately went "we know this!!" considering it showed up in bad buddy exactly one single time (ep7 pt2 - 13:45). bad buddy really has wormed its way into my brain in every single aspect in the last two years huh djkfkjdfg. anyway you can find it in ep2 of ploy's yearbook at:

ep2 pt1 - 11:10

apart from these, there were also two pieces of music that sounded increeeedibly familiar to me but neither shazam nor google could come up with any results! i'm gonna have to click through my "not found" list at some point, maybe they're already there. here are the time stamps if you're curious:

first one i can't find (ep2 pt3 - 2:06)

second one i can't find (ep2 pt3 - 7:09)

this is gonna bug me for a while....

alternate workings of the tmc unholy gift universe

i have randomly decided to explain how alternates work in regards to tmc unholy gift. hope y'all enjoy LMAO (some of this stuff will be copied from my really old au doc but the info is still pretty updated)

this will also be updated at some point bc there's a few things i haven't fully thought abt yet (specifically some of the alts special abilities and stuff so ye)

What are Alternates like in this world?

Alternates are a mix of pure demons who work for Lucius and humans who were converted into Alternates. They are mostly all the negative traits multiplied by 10 in a person if someone is converted.

There are currently 6 5 types of Alternates:

Type 1 - Unspeakable: - Can turn people into alts through a very specific and selective process (will be explained later) - If an Unspeakble's name is spoken in regards of directing something at them, they will summon them Examples: Gabriel, Six (technically)

Type 2 - Dopplegänger: - Look almost exactly like the person they are trying to copy - Usually cannot be spotted due to similar appearances with other people, therefore one of the more dangerous types Examples: Adam, Elizabeth, Abraham (the latter two are featured in vol 1)

Type 3 - Flawed Impersonators: - Usually look nothing like the person they try to copy - Most common type - Typically have some sort of deformity that has not been documented in human history Examples: Cesar, N, M

Type 4: Tulpa - Are typically found inside of old televisions and mirrors - Can travel through said TVs and mirrors into households and other places - Are usually stopped by breaking their paths of transportation (lemme say it again, TVs and mirrors) Examples: Stanley, Tiffany, Lynn

Type 5: Mimic - Cannot turn into humans but objects - Can be spotted through hearing/feeling an inanimate object breathing - Least common type Examples: Jude. That's it.

Type ??? - A specific category not documented by humans in which alternates cannot be placed into another category Examples: Mark, Evelin, Preacher, Puppet

Alternates also give Gifts to humans if they feel it’s their time to join Gabriel’s army. Also a thing to note: demons are usually Types 3, 4, and 5. Only converted humans can be Type 2, though they can of course be other types as well.

Wait, what are "gifts"?

“Gifts” are usually the items that people use to escape an alternate encounter. “Gifts” can be given to someone at any point in time but they will not take effect until someone has opened the gift. Examples being Adam having a A gift is also the term given to special abilities tied with Alternates. Examples being Adam having a teleportation apple “gift” and Cesar having a voice mimic “gift”. Let’s call the “gift” given to humans a “Gift” and the “gift” that alternates have a “gifT”.

How are Alternates made?

Alternates are made either by simply being a demon and just joining in on Gabriel's schemes, or by being a human when the requirements below have been met:

The victim must have received a Gift from an alternate previously

The Gift must be opened at some point, doesn’t matter when

The Gift must be the reason why the victim has died [literally (Mark’s gun) or metaphorically (Adam’s apple)]

The victim must have committed suicide

The victim’s body must not be touched by any other human skin before the transformation, including by Alternates in human form, otherwise the body has been “tainted”

The only two (technically) able to convert people into alternates is Gabriel and Six

Do Alternates have a distinct biology?

TBD bc i have not thought abt this too much FVGBHNJ

Important Alternates + their bios and abilities

Gabriel (any prns but prefers he/him): - Species: Devil/Alternates (like THE Devil, from the Bible /reference) - Type: Unspeakable - gifT: Creation - - Personality: As one would assume the Devil would be like; cunning, sly manipulative, but Satan’s deciding to be a bit more of a sadist today and likes to torture humans in any way possible. He actually has another form that he hides from everyone and only uses it if acting as the real Gabriel gets too tiring or frustrating.

Six (he/him) - Species: Human/Alternate - Type: Any, usually Tulpa - gifT: Type Swap - Can change into any type of Alternate, even turn into Unspeakable (Alt Gabriel doesn’t like that too much though and Six doesn’t like doing it anyway). - Personality: Fools around a lot, almost playful in a way. Loves kids a bit too much to the point of kidnapping them and kinda started a cult around kidnapping children? He loves messing with Gabriel and Stanley the most because he’s known them the longest. He does feel bad for Mark though with the way he went out as well as the whole "taking Adam" situation that happened. Adam was originally gonna be a part of the weird cult thing, but Six felt bad, so he let him go with a Gift.

Stanley (any prns + all neos, literally does not care what you call them) - Species: Human/Alternate - Type: Tulpa, previously a Flawed Impersonator - gifT: Summoning - Can spawn an Alternate within 30 feet of someone. - Personality: Extremely charismatic and manipulative of others, including other Alternates. He is only truly loyal to Gabriel and can mostly tolerate Six’s behavior. Actually might be the more sinister out of them and Six. It is also very neutral in terms of the weird cult with children thing, but got used to it overtime.

Preacher (they/it/she) - Species: Demon/Alternate - Type: ??? - gifT: Polyglot - Can understand any language - Personality: Mostly devoid of emotion but is good at faking them if they need to. Doesn’t go after people very much and is more of a secretary/bookkeeper to Lucifer. She is mostly mute and whenever they want to speak it will only whisper.

Tiffany (she/her) - Species: Human/Alternate - Type: Tulpq - gifT: Shatter - Can shatter and repair mirrors with her own mind, which is extremely useful to other Tulpas trying to kill victims - Personality: Extremely talkative and likes playing the long game with her victims, mainly as a way of gaining her power back from the time she died. She also used to have a previous name, but changed it to start a new life as an Alternate.

N (they/it) - Species: Demon/Alternate - Type: Flawed Impersonator - gifT: TBD - Personality: Almost a blank slate, mostly hangs out with M.

M (she/her) - Species: Demon/Alternate - Type: Flawed Impersonator - gifT: - Personality: Almost a blank slate, mostly hangs out with N.

Jude (he/him) - Species: Human/Alternate - Type: Mimic - Gift: TBD - gifT: TBD - Personality: Still smug, but not as smug as he used to be. Cares very much for Lynn even if he’s not supposed to show it as an Alternate.

Lynn (she/her) - Species: Human/Alternate - Type: Tulpa - Gift: Noose - given to her by Six and gives in immediately due to her losing Adam - gifT: Paranoia - can cause one to become extremely paranoid if they see her - Personality: Very sorrowful towards her human life though she doesn’t remember most of it. Clings to Jude like a lost puppy.

Mark (he/him) - Species: Human/Zombie/Half Alternate - Type: ??? - Gift: Desert eagle - Just the gun Mark uses to try and kill the alternate (as well as unfortunately kill himself with) - Personality: Very questionable of the authority running the Alternates (Gabriel), and tries to make a quiet effort to stopping them. He is unfortunately still very susceptible to being manipulated, seeing as he originally was on board with Puppet Thatcher's plan with overthrowing Gabriel.

Cesar (he/she) - Species: Human/Alternate - Type: Flawed Impersonator - Gift: Cursed poppy - Convinces Cesar to eat the poppy seeds, and overtime it acts as a drug. It makes Cesar hallucinate voices and they convince him to eat as many poppy seeds as he can to stop the constant rashes he gets as well as the voices themselves. - gifT: Voice mimic - Can mimic any voice if he hears for a good amount of time. Yes, this includes Alternates. - Personality: Sly, manipulative, and stealthy (as all alternates should be). He will do anything to have his way with people, even if it means stand outside your best friend’s door for a week minimum and torture them psychologically. Can also be a more bubbly guy, especially if he's posing as a person.

Adam (he/nya) - Species: Human/Alternate - Type: Dopplegänger - Gift: Replenishing apple - If bitten, hunger and thirst are basically reset, and the apple never rots and will replenish (as its name would imply) after 24 hours of being bitten (no matter how much was eaten). Became a metaphorical representation of Adam falling to temptation and going down the basement in Cesar’s house. - gifT: Safety apple - If bitten, he can teleport to any location he thinks of, whether it be a specific place or if he just thinks of a vague idea of a location, such as “I need to get somewhere safe”. - Personality: Cold and dismissive to most. Only likes his new alternate cat, Jonny. He tries his best to avoid Jonah mainly because he feels very angry and distraught at the sight of him (pun not included).

Evelin (she/ze) - Species: Human/Mostly Alternate - Type: ??? - Gift: Replenishing Apple - Was given by Adam in an attempt - gifT: Intercept - Can communicate through any sort of radio, though it is her only form of communication. - Personality: very shy and became almost nonverbal to others due to becoming an Alternate. Makes friends with Mark and Jonah's ghost because they are literally the only somewhat sane people there. She still tries reaching out to Thatcher and gives him info that he would have never been able to collect without her new association with Alternates.

Puppet Thatcher (he/him) - Species: Alternate - Type: ??? - gifT: Perfect Copy - Can perfectly mimic the image of a human being, no matter who they are. - Personality: Extremely cunning and manipulative, will do anything to get what he wants. Can get extremely obsessive over things, specifically people. He also grew the urge to not only make people kill themselves but do the actual killing himself. Blood on his hands made him happier anyway along with stealing Thatcher's appearance. He is also a liiiiiitle bit obsessed with kind of becoming Thatcher and also overthrowing Gabriel, which can only lead to disaster.

[][][][] - Species: Alternate - Type: ??? - Gift: The Forbidden Fruit - Personality: TBD (not really ;) )

That's all I have for now!!! Hope you enjoy!!!!
