The big bad daddy who cussed you out every day is gone and yet you still miss him. What are you, a bunch of daddy's boys?
#zzz#zenless zone zero#zzzero#jane#jane doe#zzzedit#m:gifs#m:*#zzz spoilers#zzzero spoilers#zenless zone zero spoilers#1.1 spoilers#incoming complaining/thoughts about the quest ->#i think i only enjoyed this quest bc i like jane lol#otherwise it just felt like an insanely long character trial#most of it was just her running around talking to herself lmao#i wish the 'reveal' that she was an undercover cop came more as a twist it was revealed soooo early#i get that youre playing her for like the entirety of it but still. do some more stuff from seth's perspective or smth idk#and honestly the whole undercover cop thing was. eh jaskldfl too much copganda esp with seth's whole 'i hate dishonesty!!!!!!!' shtick#would have preferred if she was more of a morally ambiguous independent party who happens to have aligning goals situation#its boring when you know she's on “our side” for 99% of it. absolutely 0 stakes#i do love jane's gameplay though so i didn't mind all the battle sequences jakdljaf

ecruteak city's newest kimono girl, suzuka! extremely obsessed with the idea of lyra becoming a kimono girl post-hgss so i doodled her with the eevee she starts training, manami.
#fun fact : maiko usually take on stage names once they debut so lyra goes by suzuka while she's working#there's a continuation of this hc where she becomes ecruteak's new fairy type gym leader after morty joins johto's newly formed elite 4#but that's once she becomes a geiko so she's independent from the kimono girls at that point#also typically maiko have black hair but since she's training an eevee i think lyra can get away with keeping her brown hair color#i need to sit and ruminate on johto some more... probably need to restart my playthrough too...#pokemon#pokemon heartgold and soulsilver#pkmn hgss#pokemon lyra#trainer lyra#eevee#hc : (pkmn) mjverse#hc : (mjv) johto#chara : lyra suzuki#🎨 : mj draws

it's kind of insane to me that s1 gave us 9 episodes of build-up to a revolution, heck even s2 act I gave us whole 3 episodes to just see the fallout of a societal upheaval, but after that only one episode was dedicated to said revolution and ppl are saying this might be the end of this plotline as we'll probs need to focus on fighting noxus/the arcane in act III
#do I even wanna watch it if that's the case#like I imagine they still gotta have jinx doing the pose with the flag but this too will probs be rushed#like we're 6 eps in and she still has got no devotion to the idea of an independence#neither is she set on an arc that would get her there#she'll probs just end up doing it cos Isha believed in it or smth#arcane critical#arcane

HEY DO YOU GUYS EVER THINK ABOUT HOW ABIGALE BLACKWING, A VERY INDEPENDENT INVENTRESS, SUDDENLY WENT AND MARRIED A RICH MAN (implied to be a Northwest) AFTER THE COLLAPSE OF THE ANTI-CIPHER SOCIETY? DO YOU EVER THINK MAYBE THAT MARRIAGE WAS OUT OF A DESPERATE NEED FOR SAFTEY FROM BEING INSTITUTIONALIZED? DO YOU EVER THINK MAYBE ABIGALE FEELS SHE TRADED AN ASYLUM FOR FREEDOM OVER HER LIFE? HOW SHE’S STILL TRAPPED IN A CAGE BUT IN A DIFFERENT WAY? DO YOU EVER THINK ABOUT THAT!? BECAUSE I DO!
Anyway uhhhh Click for Quality.
#oh yeah here’s the code translations btw#Top: ABIGALE BLACKWING#Left: NOW WHO CLIPPED YOUR WINGS#Right: WHATS A FLIGHTLESS BIRD TO DO#I’ve been constructing a story around her. I love her. she’s my everything.#because like. my idea of Abigale is so independent and free and also very much a lesbian#so in order for her to have married a rich man (implied to be a northwest) like#what are the circumstances there#I NEED to know#and since it’s prolly impossible for me to know I will MAKE IT UP MYSELF!#she’s just becoming an oc now. I’m stealing her from Alex hirsch she’s mine now#aria draws#digital art#digital drawing#the book of bill#book of bill#tbob#tbob fanart#the book of bill fanart#Abigale Blackwing#the anti-cipher society#anti cipher society#the anti cipher society#anti-bill society#anti bill society#the anti bill society#should. should I tag her as oc.

What are your thoughts on people saying Eda was better off without a love interest?
No way there are people actually saying this. Who am I kidding? That sounds exactly like the type of bad take to come out of this fandom.
I can normally understand, in concept, not wanting a female character to have a love interest. But 1) this is a RARE time of a character having a nonbinary love interest. And 2) Lumity and Huntlow are literally the most popular parts of the show, so why is okay for them to have romances but not Eda?
Gay love is only for teenagers I guess, if you're old and gay, you die alone cause you don't fit into specific online sapphic aesthetics and AO3 tropes :/
Also, Raine is a key point in Eda's development. They introduced a more vulnerable side of her we hadn't seen before. Maybe around Luz, but even then Eda was still hiding that part of herself from her kids. It's the whole point of Eda's Requiem. In fact, that episode is genuinely what made me appreciate Eda more as a character.
But I guarantee you that anyone saying this doesn't actually care about Eda. They want her only role to be saying funny one-liners around Lumity while still also not being the main focus. Like something you see out of those TOH Fan Comic YouTube compilations during Season 1.
I said before, people are weird about female characters and want them to be reduced to single easy to understand caricatures. They don't like Eda having a vulnerable side, they just want her to be a one-note comic relief side character. Despite being the secondary main character in the show.
OR they don't like Raine specifically. Maybe that's why everyone kept wanting them to be killed off. I joke but, it's kinda sad that some people want this entire nonbinary character gone because they developed a female character too much.
Bigots 🤝 Supposedly Progressive TOH fans:
This older women's entire identity should just be "mom"/ her entire life should only focus on her kids and this Trans person shouldn't exist
#this take sounds like it's trying to be#'shes a strong independent who don't need no man! 🤪'#when she DOESN'T have a MAN#and her whole issue comes from being too independent#AND weirdly enough this doesn't apply to the ships people actually care about#another example of people being bigoted in a 'woke' way#asks

Deja's outfit for the Palla Grande
#vtm#vampire the masquerade#king slayers#palla grande#outfit design#clan hecata#character designs#mine#*24#art#deja#i thought abt trying to put in haitian creole but i have no clue if 'moun ki touye wa yo' is a correct translation or not. but i do know#some french + french grammar so i'm like. pretty sure abt tueurs de rois#irl this outfit probably has even more intricate design but adding more little details to this would've made me shining insane#and i also never would've finished this lol. i already took like a 2 week break while making this#i might do ines too but her outfit would be very different from this. bc she's ines. idk abt rafael tho. no nikifor this year either#maybe i could do jay. i never do anything for him bc he's just kinda like... frankie's older brother. i don't rly use him for anything#but he is sabbat. probably most sabbat since deja's independant w/ sabbat dealings + ines goes in and out of sabbat on a whim

would you guys call me crazy if i said archetype wise that marinette's status as a Plucky Girl-Next-Door takes priority over her status as an Aspirational Everywoman. cause i have thoughts about this
#i think the reason a lot of marinette depictions (especially aged-up ones) tend to fall flat for me is that they polish away her quirkiness#which partially makes sense as she would naturally become more confident and composed as she ages#but also in my mind as she comes into herself more she would only get *more* eccentric and quirky and silly#this falls into the same nitpick i have with giving marinette too many white and conventionally attractive features#like i can't and won't *stop* you but i don't understand why you wouldn't want to make your blorbitos look more distinct#(same goes with adrien. at least explain why of all face claims you seemingly chose ALEX PETTYFER.WHAT)#but depictions of adrien are its own thing I apologize for derailing#they just both get the brunt of this sort of phenomenon but marinette especially#is it because we're so used to seeing our fiction taken over by absurdly hot people? is it part of the enjoyment? art style limitations?#overwhelmingly white/european reference photos?#do some people not find marinette's awkward adhd charm as part of her appeal?#is it just a misunderstanding of the archetypes and tropes mlb plays off of?#or is the appeal seeing this clumsy 14 year old mature into a Strong Independent Badass Strong Awesome Woman#anyway I'd like more mlb semirealism artists to depict a marinette who looks so disheveled she's painful to look at#if it's not too much to ask.

I feel like people forget that Nancy did cheat on Steve. And she didn’t want him for an entire year. She basically stayed with him as backup. She “waited” for Jonathan. I’m not saying he’s perfect, but if we wanna compare actions… he was treated like garbage too. Neither of them are saintly, but I feel like his being cheated on is always overlooked.
#I love both nancy and steve#but that boy was done extremely dirty#and the fact that he’s crawling back now that he’s worthy… and that Jonathan is gone#irritating and awful writing#let them both be independent pls#give nance the career she deserves#she’s too powerful to be tied down

kind of unfortunate that so many fantasy epics are also war novels because i will be honest i just do not like war novels that much... the grand clashing of forces is compelling obviously but it requires characters to talk about so much practical battle strategy and while i can get my brain to comprehend all these fantasy maps and kingdoms and borders and battalions and front lines and army movements it takes up. so much space in the book. feels like i'm fighting a war of my own trying to get through it sometimes
#this is about the witcher books rn but also about book four of the inheritance cycle#roran is hot and i like seeing him with his hammer and his dedication and love for his wife!#also i am here for dragons and it is kind of a major tonal shift watching this man try to navigate becoming a military general!#like i'll learn all the names of the witcher kings and queens and learn where their provinces are and which towns are in which kingdom#and who borders what and where and how all those political machinations work. it's important to the plot.#damn it's a lot of names though#meve is the queen of lyria and rivia is in lyria. this much i know. because she is the only queen.#completely irrelevant information most of the time.#cintra is north of nilfgaard. nilfgaard is south of fucking everything.#cintra is like? middle of the map i think? there are other southern territories that got conquered by nilfgaard before cintra fell#other southern places. um. toussaint. i know this because this location is often referenced in fanfictions about aiden thewitcher#my favorite character that does not actually appear anywhere in canon aiden thewitcher#man i'm thinking about him again... fucking miss him... (<— guy who never met that guy to begin with)#anyway. what other witcher politics do i know. i can keep the wizard politics pretty clear in my mind.#total fucking lie i just realized i've been picturing stregobor instead of vilgefortz all through the last half of blood of elves#whateverrrrrrr i'll figure it out... this is why i can't pick things up this much later. i'm not restarting this reread though#other kings. suddenly all their names are gone. demawend? he is not very important rn i don't think.#vizimir. of. redania? perchance?#yes. because i think he's who dijkstra works for. and phillipa eilhart. i think that's the redania crew.#there's the king who is caught up in. incest. foltest. that's that guy's name. fuck if i know what kingdom. triss worked with him i think#oxenfurt is an independent city-state in my mind i don't think that's actually true though#just reread the story where geralt is delivering a message for the kings that border brokilon but could not tell you for the life of me#which kings and kingdoms those actually are. nor who ciri was supposed to marry there#anyway point is. man. War Novel#lord of the rings counts for this too btw. if i have to calculate the numbers for the armies it is a war novel to me#valentine notes#witcher reread

rip lucy and mina you would’ve loved farcille. rip marcille you would’ve loved westenray (falin lost interest and fell asleep before finishing the book)
#dracula#lucy westenra#mina harker#mina Murray#Westenray#dungeon meshi#farcille#marcille donato#falin touden#my post#dungeon meshi spoilers in tags: ->#something about it…………idk#childhood girl best friends#a blonde woman who everyone loves and idealizes#proposed to by one of her male friends. has expectations relating to marriage and who she should marry#she’s in peril pretty much immediately. everyone tries to save her but she dies.#she’s unnaturally brought back as a perversion of her former self: a cold blooded killer#the gang has to put her to rest. it’s for the best#luckily Falin is allowed more independence by surviving and having her own story rip#her best friend: an intelligent hard worker/teacher with some gender stuff going on#since iirc it’s possible that mina taught Lucy at some point?#and Marcille was a teacher/researcher at Falin’ s magic school#new women (derogatory) and ‘but those are men’s clothes!!’#all affectionate ofc it makes them more interesting characters#who goes through a mini Dark Arc (vampire mina and dungeon lord marcille)#edit: okay more thoughts. I think that Falin would watch a play or movie and not think too much of it and marcille would go#NOO IT WASNT IN THE SPIRIT OF THE ORIGINAL BOOK!!! listen to the audiobook the adaptations ruin it!!#and Falin would enjoy it more like that

why is there a running theme throughout the professor layton games of children having to step up and act "adult" because the grown-ups in their lives (particularly their parents) are somehow incapacitated
#melonposting#professor layton#stares at luke. stares at arianna. stares at tony. stares at the kids of the black raven. stares at clive. stares at ernest#<- the latter two to a lesser extent?#clive's parents died but he got adopted. but then his adoptive mother died too#all the while he matured himself through his desire for revenge#i don't remember about ernest's dad but his mom certainly died. he wasn't quite as young as the other examples at the time though#but then it's not like he was that mature then anyway. part of the whole thing is that he matured himself through his desire for revenge#much like clive! except this desire was instilled in ernest by his mom because she thought he'd never grow up and be independent otherwise#flora and aurora have ties to this group too but not entirely. they do have similarities though#that reminds me: i was gonna do a venn diagram of flora and arianna and luke...
