i WILL maintain that adding a can of beans to an alfredo pasta (WITH the bean liquid) really adds such a lovely smooth texture to the sauce

#i mean if you dont want beans in your pasta you could just use the liquid i guess #but i like to make my fettuccine alfredo with cannellini beans‚ spinach�� and artichoke hearts #and i do recommend. its very tasty. and it gets some veggies in your diet #which is always nice #if youre real squeamish about veggies you can try omitting everything except the spinach. id recommend trying spinach in a pasta dish of #your choice. it really just kinda melts into it and besides adding a green color its not very noticeable #and spinach has like. a ton of shit thats good for you iirc #so its a good one to get in a meal #sorry for tag ranting about vegetables i love vegetables

personal redemption with not liking any of the art ive made for this story with a composition thats actually working out okay

#dungeon meshi spoilers #oughhh dungeon lord lore my beloved....blythe would ALSO fold like a lawn chair i get it #dunmeshi is a story that genuienly is one of my favourites and some characters hold such a special spot in my heart #its my own feelings that ihavent seen expressed anywhere else like falin constantly eating alone and wanting to share a meal with marcille #or mithruns lack of direction with wanting anything and /needing/ others #marcilles fears of having to move on from others deaths. multiple parts of the manga brought me to tears #in fact im tearing up writing this - THIS STORY WAS SO GOOD T_T #seeing it animated made me fall inlove with it again...i should reread it

the king shunned, the lion dead, the knight lost, the princess absent. but the wizard lives.

#pokemon #swsh #champion league #cw: gore #hi! this one is also about being trans btw. but mostly it's abt stories #I think I was drawing this one like ''leon should get to have fun a little'' and it turned into. this #well. there are many things already! like I've been rotating the lion dance costume head as trophy thing in my brain since #that one doodle I did with that lion head #the original idea for this has the wreaths more prominent and also pizelated #and. it tried to incorporate something that needs much more delicate handling #than I'm currently capable of. so I shelved it for this instead #I think this piece is just like. fully linking the king-knight-beast-princess-wizard figures altogether for leon #u know what I think abt all that! u kno whats up #but also just a tiny bit. this was drawn with that whole once-a-month disk horse abt sexing skeleton remains #about which my only real thought is ''I gotta be buried in a solid metal salmon suit then''#well. if I were to be buried at all. I'm good to be thrown out for a natural meal as well of course #(technically) first piece after job babey!!#in the end the tiger wanted to be drawn first but this was started way beforehand #I think because I wanted something more ink-heavy. since my job art was almost entirely painted #to anyone who may come into my inbox or comment to ask why the bones shine: its cause theyre wet. congrats #have a good night lads! it's nice and cool to be gross sometimes

lord its so dark in here the sahara desert of tsaritsa content you are like a shining oasis. your characterisation of her compels me & mihoyo would be hard pressed to top it imo.!! caaaaan i humbly request yr thoughts on her first meeting w a reader of any kind, or maybe even multiple kinds (sagau, sagau god au, isekai, etc) if you so desire...

it really is like a desert here. being the fan of a character we aren't getting until the last damn nation is driving me up a wall but i will persevere bc if nothing else i support morally bankrupt women in media. we r in a severe drought over here but i do my best. unfortunately nothing i say is ever coherent so pull out your translation notes its abt 2 be messy

also this got out of hand but thats bc first meetings w the tsaritsa are tricky to write + a LOT of her characterization lies in deeper exploration then just surface level yknow...NOT A DIG AT YOU this is just my excuse for rambling. gently pats the tsaritsa she can hold so much complexity i do not have the word count to delve into it completely :]

gonna talk cult au for a bit here though because that's 99% of my content. and honestly? she thrives in sub au's of the cult au like villain au + imposter au. it's basically made for her. i mean, early days, the imposter au had been going around for a little while but one of the first few ideas was the Fatui taking reader in so like. it kinda technically actually was. pretty sure cult au Tsaritsa popped up because of the imposter au. a lot of it's writers kinda left though which. man am i getting old or.

anyway.

there isn't much of a chance her first impression is all that positive. at best it's usually neutral, imo, but rarely if ever positive. specifically because i view the Tsaritsa as someone who isn't as fanatical as most of the acolytes typically are towards the creator. she's not exactly going to worship the ground you walk on unlike a certain geo lizard. which is partially why i think she thrives in the sub au's i mentioned.

imposter au, for example. she meets you at your lowest. there's no gaudy extravagance or pampering from the acolytes waiting for you because your own acolytes have turned on you. for all intents and purposes you aren't a "god" at all. which is why i don't think she meshes well with normal cult au reader. the Fatui are made up of outcasts, basically, and imposter au slots right in just perfectly. you're weak, at your lowest, when you meet the Fatui in the imposter au. and the Fatui can help you, too.

a mutual exchange, really. the Tsaritsa sees a tool she can use to one up the rest of the nations and especially Archons, and she has no qualms about you using her and the Fatui in turn. you both want something out of it, after all. whether you just want to be safe from the rest of the acolytes, or you want revenge, or whatever else..she'll give you the power to fulfill it, and she gains the strongest piece on the chessboard when all is said and done.

the best way i can describe the first meeting is "practical", i suppose. she sees an opportunity in you. the ultimate gamble. because if she "saves" you, and you dont trust anyone else because they tried to kill you, well..she holds all the cards, doesn't she?

but the Tsaritsa, imo, is just as capable of being just as fanatical towards you as anyone else. she just won't worship you as the creator. but as yourself? clawing your way back to your divine power and taking back what belongs to you? the Tsaritsa is, to me, a character who's character flourishes in long-term fics more because she changes a LOT between "just met reader" and after having been with reader for some time. she's practically apathetic at the beginning but a lot of her character, in my characterization, shines through LONG after the first meeting.

#asks #Anonymous #sagau #tsaritsa #like. am i explaining this coherently?? first meetings r GOOD and i could go on a tangent of like. first meetings w zl and make it work #but first meetings w the tsaritsa is like. you just cooked a 5 course meal. took one bite. called it a day.#so much of my characterization lies in the “after” of the first meeting #because her first meetings are generally the same. she's apathetic at best!! she does not gaf abt the creator in the SLIGHTEST #but show that you are more then the creator? that you do not cling to the title like a shield? that you do not rely on it?#youve got the worst person youve ever known ready to kill a man for you.#tsaritsa is very like. EXTREMELY hard to earn the trust of but when you do she will kill someone for you no hesitation no question #which is why she works SO WELL in villain au and imposter au!!!!!!!!!#esp if theres a fake “creator” calling you the imposter. she hates their ass and was .5 seconds from dethroning them anyway #you just made it 10x easier #also cant do just first meetings bc i am incapable of not shoving themes of love into every fic w her SORRY #tsaritsa going on a full multiple month long mental breakdown bc she is not in love with you but she would destroy everything for u..#(shes in denial)#tsaritsa and complex themes of love and what it means for the god of love to be incapable of feeling it + what it means when reader shows u #LIKE UGHHHHHH okay. i guess ill write another tsaritsa fic and put it in my vault #aka my drafts #i hold so many fics hostage there its crazy #this answered like 0 of ur questions sorry i see tsaritsa and black out and this happens #i just think first meetings dont let her character really come thru but my response got out of hand so uhhhhh everyone look away. please #putting tape over my mouth now so i shut up before this gets worse #basically tsaritsa gravitates more towards outcast reader rather then one who has already become accustomed to the adoration of the acolyte #does that make sense........#i havent slept in forever and im running on nothing but spite and dreams atp dont expect coherency when it comes 2 the tsaritsa from me #head in hands someone please stop me i keep rambling abt the tsaritsa it makes me go NUTS #lays down. explodes

dunmesh’s story has so little ‘romance’ (kabru and rin being the most ig ‘outright’ but still not ultra relevant from the like 2 or 3 scenes) and the most implicit “hey this is kinda” stuff is between marcille and falin but you people still wanna pair laios or chilchuck off with marcille. ok

#quinn moment #dungeon meshi #thank god i haven’t had to encounter too much of that #but the fact that ive had to see it in any capacity is like 🥲#idk im gonna sound s bit hypocritical bcuz i can get real up in arms about pairings #but idk dude dunmesh is so…it’s about eating a good meal its about being brought together by a good meal #and it’s about desire and hunger and how they can be and often are one in the same #worry less about which dude marcille has tension with idk

Woke up from my little power outage nap and couldn’t even manage to eat a full box of macked cheese, grad school will fuck you up for life kids, do it at your own risk.

#my stuff #i don’t like to admit it but i’ve developed a complicated relationship with food #i’m a rational person i know food is important and i feel hunger and when i do i want to eat #but due to the hassle of meal prep and my tight finances i basically only eat one meal a day at the end and use coffee to power through #often until like 6pm #which i know is not good in a general or transition sense #and when i was first starting to fall into this pattern i would eat A TON at night to make up for it #but sometime during my grief in march n april i developed #a psychological difficulty with finishing food. like executive dysfunction and insecurity hoarding combined #and also i sometimes get nauseous midway through eating #or rapidly feel full after being doubled over from hunger cramps and then hungry again an hour later #and above all else it’s annoying bc its subconscious or physiological and it makes it hard to overcome #and even if i was provided 3 meals a day i’d probably struggle to stomach eating that freq in any significant amount #i feel like when my stomach is empty it tries to quasi hibernate until last minute and then goes ravenous #much like me emotionally but that’s a different tag rant #anyways another complication is ‘sleep for dinner’ right when i get home which fucks up my eating AND sleep schedule #all this bullshit when i’m a scientist who has taken metabolism classes and knows my body is getting wrecked from this #so i’m guilty as fuck abt it🙂‍↕️

i should not have to eat every day, let alone multiple times a day.

#zeph posting #lately ive been getting nauseous after most meals and its so fucking annoying #but even besides that im just Not Hungry and ugh #currently im mostly done with a 6oz raspberry yogurt and have no idea what im going to have to force down after #i cant have the ramen ive been enjoying again bc i already had it today and i dont need that much sodium twice in one day #but god idfk what to eat #sweet things are easier to get down but i cant just have desserts #all my options just dont sound good #honestly all the things that arent options either dont sound good #i could literally go out to eat somewhere and it still doesnt sound good

Thinking abt mechanisms and tummy again <333

#Tim is on the brain #she'd be so fucking skinny. very tragic. consequences of the moon war #she's Also one of the ones who gets full body resets pretty regularly bc of her violence habits #so she very rarely has the opportunity to put on weight- and even more rarely the opportunity to keep it for any notable period of time #she filled out a bit during her Persephone era with the (at the minimum) 70 years Ashes ruled the Acheron #bc she did not die often then and when she did it was even more rarely a complete destruction of her body #it was WILD to look at her body in the mirror and not see bone for the first couple years.#and she kinda misses it sometimes but she won't say that alout #also Jonny <333 #he was underfed as hell (less so than Tim tho) during his time in new texas but I like to think his body just naturally holds weight easier #he's always had a bit of a belly #and there was enough time between Carmilla picking him up and getting mechanized that he picked up some more weight too #through regular meals and alcoholism #he's got a beer belly. like his belly isn't stiff stiff and there's a lot of softness there but its more rounded than folds #typical beer belly from a naturally fat person y'know #ough #I love them sm #tummy <33333 #all of the mechs are just... so unapologetically into each other's body types #Ivy definitely is chubby too love her for that <3333 #all the mechs are chubby. Ts and Tim and Nastya are the exceptions #Brian was heavy set well before his death and that benefited him so much as a robot. so much extra space for optimizing machinery #which is also delightful to crack his stomach open and spread that sensitive machinery out on a bed around him to play with #Ashes is also the obvious choice here but they like to stay completely clothed a lot so tummy glimpses are hard to come by #and immediately drooled over by their partners.#and Raphaella always wears that lil crop top in contrast and she gets So many tummy kisses #and y'know her tummy is ALSO immediately drooled over by her partners because their bodies never get old to each other #everyone has such good tummies. there's no such thing as a bad tummy regardless of how big or small it is #kinkdicon

as someone who was raised with a comparatively healthy mindset around food, I keep being baffled/concerned by other people’s eating practices that they’ll just drop like it’s no big deal. “I’m doing this intermittent fasting thing where I only eat one meal a day” girl if your one meal is the salad you eat every day for lunch I’m. that’s eating disorder behavior. and they talk about this stuff like it’s normal! “I’m trying out this new meal plan where—“ oh a starvation diet? You’re starving yourself?

#anyway spending time with a couple of my coworkers especially is making me dig in my heels #I’m eating three square meals a day! And I’m not budging on that! And I’m not going to be embarrassed about it!#Bc the worst thing is like. would I like to lose 20 pounds? Admittedly yeah #But idk I don’t think that’s the right way to do it!#Not that I am a paragon of physical fitness or anything but like! That’s literally unhealthy you are wrecking your metabolism probably #I would rather be a little squishy then live in this weird alternate universe where people are supposed to be on a diet by default!!!#and idk when girl that are already small are putting themselves through this and getting noticeably smaller it’s like #ok good for you I guess but is it worth it?#mostly writing this to reassure myself because it’s hard not to feel like I’m the one that’s wrong #idk if you feel like you need to lose weight logically you must think I’m some sort of beast or something #like I thought I was normal but maybe not haha #But anyway I hate how we just slapped new jargon on eating disorder behavior so we can talk #About it like its a health trend and something normal to do
