[spaceyaemonds]

wip list:

note: so these are my more fleshed out/most written wips. i have a million things in my drafts lol, these are just the mains. if you have any questions, thoughts, suggestions, anything, my ask box is open!!!

priority/currently working on the most:

loving me is all you need to feel like I do

pairing: dr. jack abbot x former stripper/R2!reader

what if you’re eyes looked up and met mine one more time

pairing: dr. jack abbot x younger/nurse!reader

sum.: you like to think you know jack. long nights in the er, soft mornings in his apartment, early afternoons tangled in his sheets. things were going somewhere. until they weren’t.

never thought i’d meet you here, it could be love

pairing: widower!dr. jack abbot x widow/yonger!reader

sum.: being a widow in your mid twenties was never in your life plan, neither was changing your whole life to get away from the grief.

if you love me, keep it to yourself

pairing: aemond targaryen x tyrell!reader, aegon ii targaryen x tyrell!reader

sum.: it’s irrational. for him to think this way about you. his brothers wife. his kings wife. but he can’t help but think, you were supposed to be his first.

untitled

pairing: aegon ii targaryen x tyrell!reader x original femal character

The Three Hunters

Some sketches from a few months ago :)

You mentioned an ex-wife for the sugar daddy au, what's up with that whole thing if you don't mind me asking??

(Also will this be an y/n au or not for context???)

ok ok so..! i call her ex-wife, literally just so i can make the "i miss my wife tails" joke but more accurately she's actually his ex-fiancée! now im trusting myself not to share too much because eventually i wanna write this all out:

This is a y/n au!! They have a tiny bit of established lore that I'm reusing from what was initially a separate au that I combined with the sugar daddy au 'cause why not? I've been meaning to share some doodles I have for them but I've had no time/motivation

Now, I'm waving my hand vaguely here for this next bit: Eclipse only got into sugaring/sugar dating AFTER he and his ex-fiancée broke things off for good. It wasn't on good terms and there wasn't much of a proper goodbye from either. He's grateful that Atlas was too young to understand it or know what was happening; with his ex-fiancée gone, Eclipse had to be both "mom" and "dad" for the kid.

Sugar dating, for Eclipse, is a means to scratch that itch for companionship and intimacy- even if only superficial. It makes the loneliness sting a bit less for him. Of course, he still desires to be in a genuine relationship! Though it doesn't help that when his personal feelings do get involved, he gets hurt every time.

By the time y/n comes into the picture, Eclipse will have been sugaring for a while.

AAA I FORGOT ABOUT THIS IN MY DRAFTS IM SO SORRY </3 i have a terrible habit of losing asks in my drafts because i try to answer these between jobs oof

[youmakethelight]

Okay, but I'm casting my mind back to try to imagine how I would have felt about tboc daryl before season 10 got me so stupid about this show, when I used to be a casual viewer. And I still think I'd have just thought daryl lost his mind tbh.

This is just me going off on tangents about the show now, don't mind me.

He felt a bit off in season 1, I can't lie. The costume change would have thrown me even if I wasn't as attached, because I'm probs just the type of neurodivergent that struggles with too much change at once, and him being away from TF, in Europe, and looking so different, then calling Laurent useless, then the ways he looked at Isabelle at the end of 1x06 - that was all just too different to the Daryl I knew idk. But I stuck with it.

But having his first on-screen kiss be so entirely unpredictable for what I thought I knew of his character felt gratuitous*. And then it's like suddenly I'm being railroaded into following him on this rolleroaster that I don't understand. One minute he's longing for home, the next he's playing baseball and "just having fun". Then home has found him, but now he's invested in this kid I still haven't learnt to feel invested in yet. And he's never even talking about anything to do with home anymore, even after Carol is there? It's suddenly all just about Laurent, and part of the problem for me is there wasn't enough balance to convince me of the story.

And I think this was most of my difficulty with enjoying TOWL, too. (Don't come for me please for talking about my personal experience of watching TOWL.) I watched TOWL first out of all the spinoffs, and I remember this one part where I think Michonne and Rick were in a kitchen or something and Rick felt so different to me and it made me sad, and then she called it out. And he said something like that it's been so long, he's lost who he used to be or something like that. I can't remember exactly, but it made me sad. And I think, for me, I didn't get enough glimpses of the Rick I recognised within the short 6 episodes that I never felt satisfied or happy with it. And maybe I needed more TF references or something??? I didn't even feel enough concern for Judith or RJ from him - maybe I'm misremembering, but I think your memory of the feeling something gave you is important. I get that the leadership want these spinoffs to be accessible to people who didn't watch the flagship show, but I think that's a big part of where it's losing the magic for me.

The thing that was better for me about DD season 1 is that it was all about getting home, and his determination felt relentless throughout the first 5 and a half episodes before it suddenly got weird with Isabelle acting like they've been a family for 19 years. Like, before that, I felt connected to his mission.** But then in season 2, it's almost completely gone, and Carol feels like the only part I can still connect with. Like, I know Rick didn't mention Daryl either I think, but I wish both of them had talked about each other. Idk, it just would have felt more like it's giving me something I can connect with? Rather than just throwing the characters into entirely new situations and also deliberately making them feel a bit out of character?

That whole part in TOWL where Michonne feels surprised to find Rick a bit changed is so similar to what they seemed to want to do with Daryl and Carol, and I don't really get why they did it to either of them. It's more believable with Rick than Daryl bc 1. He isn't Daryl and definitely adapts more to new environments, and 2. It had been many, many, many years, not like a month. But idk, I still wasn't keen, but at least they gave it a redemption arc or whatever you'd call it. With daryl it's still just like - ???? And for what reason??? I don't know. I just don't find it compelling idk idk idk.

*Even in season 9, when we met Connie, I felt a bit like 'oh are they gonna force a ship here bc they have them spending time together 🤨 (rather than just letting connie want to help for her own character reasons rather than making it about daryl and shipping), but if it's gonna be someone who isn't carol, I think I'm okay with connie', like bc we actually had reasons to like her and there was chemistry with Daryl. So why neither Connie nor Carol, but Isabelle? The show just never got me invested in darabelle in any way.

I already liked connie before they had her going on missions with daryl, so I actually cared about her a lot. I loved seeing her on those missions bc I was excited for her to have more screen time and I found her character empowering. So, I didn't want to see her reduced to just being Daryl's love interest, and tbh, I don't think they handled it well, bc they still reduced her to being Daryl's accessory, rather than giving her her own character depth. But I *still* would have been more on board with pairing up Daryl with Connie than Isabelle. Tbh, by the time that Carol was broken up with zeke, and they had the conversation about running away together, I didn't think of Daryl and Connie as making sense to pair anymore... But I also didn't see much point in the Leah romance either, so whatever, I guess this show just has a pattern of pairing up Daryl with random women he doesn't have chemistry with, instead of the ones he does?

**I always remember that Zabel pitched the idea for the show as "what if, in trying to get home, you find something else?", and the thing is, in order to get me to be convinced that Daryl "found something else", I'd have needed A LOT stronger of a pull for the French story. There was nothing there that hooked me to becoming convinced of Daryl finding something while trying to get home. Just having him voice the words "I found something", having Laurent the prophet say "you miss her too, I can tell", putting his crossbow next to Isabelle's hospital bed, and having him look at her for an extended time after she recovers, doesn't suddenly convince me of that idea. Idk. I'm not in the TV industry, so I don't know how that magic gets done - like when season 10 slowly turned Lydia into one of my favourite characters after she was introduced as an antagonist. But I have enough brain cells to see (from the moment they nonsensically forced them to share a bed??) that they were trying to convince us Daryl found "something" in France, and tbh, if I can see the strain in their efforts to make it happen, it's probably not working. And even NR couldn't answer why Isabelle when asked at NYCC. He was literally like, "idk they have similar pasts?? Idk???". Like, girl, if you don't know, why should your audience?

What do you hope they’ll do with the new PPG reboot with Craig McCrakken coming back?

If I have to be honest about my opinion, I want them to leave the franchise alone, and I really don’t understand any reason to bring the series back. I didn’t even really want the 2016 reboot. In my mind, the series went from S1-S4 of the original (I give or take the other two seasons, lol), the movie, and ended with the 2008 The PPG Rule!!! special. So much time has passed, and after having lost a few people who added so much to the original series, I feel like it just won’t be the same. Which is absolutely fine if it’s not. Like, my ~childhood isn’t ruined~ and I’m all for people having jobs and making something, just… not when it’s being made mostly for the sake that it can make lots of money in merchandising after the fact (and when there are creators out there with other ideas for shows that could be made in its stead… I mean, Craig himself claims he has like a billion ideas for new shows that got shot down, geez, make one of those).

But I know it’s more likely than not to get made (sigh) so if it does, all I hope for is the best. I hope it’s fun, silly, hardcore, frenetic, all of the things that made the original show great. A few episodes would be really cool, like one mini season that had an overarching story could be fun. As far as story goes… man, I dunno. Again, it all ended for me with the special. The girls are forever fighting crime in Townsville and I have my happy ending already, but I am absolutely not opposed to being surprised and eventually getting something that makes me react to it, like, “Whoa, I didn’t know that I actually needed this!”

Substance, Shadow, and Spirit [remixed, abridged] by Tao Yuanming

[gingergari]

Ooh for Toad Peach AU how did the first meeting go with the officials of the Beanbean Kingdom? Ohh maybe more on Peach and Peasley's becoming friends. Does he help her feel a little more confident in her true form? Gimme all of the dynamics hehe

idk why i thought i dreamed this ask but i forgot you sent it 😭 here ya go!

the beanbean and mushroom kingdoms have an extremely close relationship that’s rather old, and as such the births of both heirs were highly celebrated by both families.

here, peasley is roughly 1 year older than peach, and the betrothal between the two was set up very early so the two do not remember their first meeting as they were infants at the time. but still, they visited peach many times before her debutante.

peach’s parents died in a horrific incident i still haven’t detailed when she was around 3-4, which did result in queen bean reaching out more often as peach grew older to offer additional guidance and support :]

but back to peasley and peach, they were thick as thieves and peasley introduced her to fencing! toadsworth wasn’t a fan at first but eventually relented (whatever endears her to peasley, plus any experience with a weapon could come in handy if the mushroom kingdom were to ever leave the peacful era). she’s quite adept in both forms, but prefers to fence in human form. it isn’t something she practices often in current day but it’s something she treasures the memories of alongside trying his bean pillow and learning about beanbean allies and his travels :]

though, as they got older, the two became more aware of their betrothal and what would follow, but things weren’t clicking so they decided to experiment a little (read: they kissed and neither of them liked it. sad!) but neither have brought up calling anything off as both are quite fine with something contractual if it came down to it (but peach would call it off if peasley asked)

at peach’s debutante, they danced together first as a show of the kingdom relationship, and when the first attack/kidnapping happens, the beanbean kingdom offered aid and refuge (little fungitown)

re: her appearance and peasley—she initially meets the beanbean family in toad form, but as she got older this became rarer as experience (and her self image) became priority. peasley makes sure to praise her toad form’s beauty when he sees it, and when mario does come into the picture is of the firm opinion alongside daisy that he does not deserve her if he doesn’t like her true form. on most days she agrees with him

as for superstar saga, he still arrives to the mushroom kingdom ahead of time and toadette volunteers to take peach’s place instead of birdo (the effect is later undone before peach arrives in the beanbean kingdom)

post superstar saga, the two meet (peach crownless) to discuss their love interests, and their betrothal is officially called off. consequent meetings with the beanbean kingdom are held in her toad form :]

Hey I saw your tags on your reblog here asking for a reminder to watch this video: https://www.tumblr.com/martitheevans/774192598309109760

I am the same way with videos on tumblr, so here's a reminder! tbh now I save reblogs as a Draft and go back to it. Y'know, eventually.

(when I already have headphones on because I just finished watching something else lol)

So hey that's my trick I use, save to Drafts - it works eventually! 😅

Hope you're having a great day! 😁

You are a wonderful human being, here's a picture of a dog staring at a pineapple as thanks bc I don't got anything else. I hope you have a fantastic day

SNAP. art block has washed over me. what do you do when you feel like this?

scream and cry idk but to NOT be smarmy i got two options: brute force your way through it with doodles or just take a break from drawing for a couple hours or days if you've been overworking yourself with drawing

[hylianane]

I was going to write this in the tags of your last post but i think it's important actually so I'm gonna send an ask

On a more serious note I'm actually kind of obsessed with psychoanalyzing Zoro specifically. Because he actually has some pretty big issues I think, mentally

He takes his self appointed job as protector of the crew very very seriously, and he's really hard on himself if he thinks he's failed in any way. I mean just look at him right after Little Garden, or how mad he is after losing his shadow on Thriller Bark.

So yeah there's nothing in that brain but swords and I fucking love that about him, he sure is sharpening them to an unhealthy degree isn't he. He's never strong enough, after all, to protect everyone.

I just,, really like combining silly ideas with serious ones, it's fun

GOD listen is 12:25 am but I just couldnt go to bed without at least STARTING to jot down my thoughts on this but like YEAH. for SURE. Zoro for all that he’s shown to be a pretty simple guy with a single-minded focus, has a LOT to chew on in terms of character depth and layers. There’s lots of fun contradictions to him too. He’s prideful and self-assured but also so often self-punishing, and he’s also someone who is fiercely independent and a free spirit, while having a habit of building his own identity around others (both his dreams are shared with others, they belong other people as much as they do to him and that’s a LOT to think about).

You may have actually caught me red handed here cause that ‘Journey to the Center of the Mind’ story concept maaaay be kind of something i’ve played around with for months now. I think I once tried to write out like a basic premise, but the only thing I really remember is is wanting Luffy to be the primary person to undergo the journey cause. if every Strawhat was present it’d feel less intimate, less personal, and I feel like Luffy would want to explore Zoro’s mind alone to preserve his privacy. Unaware that he’s the person Zoro has the most to hide from. I think the levels of Zoro’s willingness to put the Strawhat’s well being first has the potential to truly frighten him, if the visuals Zoro’s mind provides him are right.

(natlan character lineup leaks/claims of dubious reliability as for now)

well huh. if u ask me the one thing i rly wasnt expecting to hear abt the alleged upcoming characters its this whole "5* geo tall lady in 5.1 will be big meta support" like. how come Now they remember geo as an element exists again more often than once in more than a year 💀 but ig interesting if true???

tho massive grain of salt w leaker "theorycrafting" as usual - even if the core claims themselves on her kit outline end up being somewhat true (a supportive 5* geo), when leakers say Anything about "team synergies" or "x will be meta" its uhhhhhhh. dubious at best. remember when clorinde and arlecchino were going to be good together in a team? yae the electro dps ceiling? lmao

(guess they did get the chiori albedo powercreep right tho but that ones. easy)

still tho if she actually ends up being a thing and a cool design i could actually see myself going for her??? i dislike mono geo yes and never had any interest in it but navia n chiori r obviously favorites and if shes more of a flexible unit than tied to geo completely (buffer support with an unkillable construct so it becomes the new zhongli/chiori flex core mby??????) then very cool and might well be a pull id go for

...... is what id like to say. BUT. the actual real important content this leak is giving me is. if 5* geo in 5.1. then chioris probably rerunning in the same patch???? so thats locked in actually and the priority lmao

anyway im p sure that starting the way i am aka. 0 pity p much and no guarantee but with the remainder of 4.7 left, 4.8, 5.0 and then depending on 1st or 2nd half of 5.1 or then the entire patch to save im fairly confident c4 will be guaranteed even in the worst case scenario? i have a bit under 50 pulls currently. so thats neat but getting lucky w even just a 50-50 win or two would b ideal . We will see .

also man im actually SO happy i just got uraku misugiri on release easy n comfy so i dont need to fear wasting my chiori constellation pulls on any weapon banner bs lmao. but like cheeky c6 with some sigma luck on first rerun pls.... just 4 copies hoyo 🙏

(also IF i luck out on chiori c6 and she runs w the new alleged geo 5* lady and IF she synergizes w carry chiori. then obviously we try pulling 😤)

no thoughts for now on the other alleged kits tho other than hydro 5* catalyst is so. Why another one. also i love the iansan element discourse of is she the claimed 4* geo of 5.0 or a later pyro unit bc she makes fire in her fists in travail and all. boothill explosions in splash art but still physical moment

(still wanna see the actual character designs so bad. leaks have dried up like hell recently bc hoyos tightened up security 💀💀)
