And oh, I wish I could hold you in my arms || but lately my body has been so afraid

A comic for @cometquest's blocktales apocalypse au! Can be interpreted either romantic or platonic. I kind of made my own story here, but you should definitely go check the au out!! His character designs are sick as hell and I've been a bit insane about them lately 🙏🙏!

Text reads: And if I knew you a little less, and my soul held a little less pride, I'd ask for you to stay safe by my side. But in my heart, I have long known what your answer would be.

Some extras below the readmore! Fair warning it's quite long

The comic without leetspeak!

In honour of the most recent lore post

Banner says: and me I feel also not so good Griefer's saying: Dude this yogurt fucking sucks

And my original tags condensed into incomprehensible paragraphs because there was not enough space to fit all of them underneath. Dear lord.

Genuinely I keep thinking about them oh my lord. The way in a normal world they would have never met. Wouldn't have even known eachother existed except in passing and rumors. Yet in this world where everything is falling apart Griefer and Jim are the only lifelines in their towns, do they meet even if its in voicechat. The only way Roadtown can talk to Turitopulis. And if Red lives in somewhere other than Roadtown or Blackrock, then Jim is quite literally the only way Brad can get updates on his father.

So they start talking and planning and communicating. And they communicate and they learn about eachother and they start talking more than strictly necessary and days or months or maybe years later, Griefer suddenly realizes that he's looking forward to his next conversation with Jim. He likes talking to him. He finds comfort with him. He cares a lot for Jim. A lot. Like a bird trying to rip out of his chest. Over the voice on his headphones who hes never seen before.

And if he knew Jim a little less well. If he maybe he were willing to beg a little more. He might've asked Jim to go and live in blackrock like his dad, or even go to Turitopulis to stay with him. But he knows who Jim is, and he knows who he is, and if someone had ever asked him to leave Turitopulis he would've socked them in the face. And even though he's calmer and more mellower than him, Griefer knows Jim would never think about leaving Roadtown for it to defend itself. And nobodys really manning the planes except for Jerry nowdays. So he never bothers asking.

But like a riving pounding against stone, the voices know they can't last forever and one day, maybe the voices finally got to him or maybe it was an act of self sacrifice, but Jim blows himself up. And all of the sudden Brad is left with headphones that emit static, no contact to Roadtown, and a sinking pit in his stomach. Do you see my vision here. Gripping myself.

Robin is avoiding her.

Well, no—that sounds drastic. Robin still smiles when she sees Nancy walk into a room. She still laughs whenever Nancy says something sarcastic or rolls her eyes at one of the kids. She even makes sure Nancy knows when and where movie nights are, and even votes to postpone when Nancy can’t make it to one.

But she won’t let Nancy touch her.

or, Robin Buckley, through Nancy's eyes

forgot i had this in my drafts, but what better time to post some summer pining than *looks outside* a brisk november day

Slayer - Raining Blood

man....the uzumaki anime..............

episode 1 was brilliant. i think it had just the right amount of material for the span of time that it covered, the pacing was really well done, and the animation looked great.

and then..........episode 2. god the drop in animation quality is so damn distracting 💀every single walking or running scene just doesn't look right, the sound is straight up not in sync in a few places, the emotion from the VAs isn't at all matched up by what's shown visually, you can tell where they skimped out on animating certain beats, and shuichi just straight up doesn't look like the same character from the last episode. it looks like a different studio animated this one, which explains...pretty much everything.

i think of that one incredibly brief but striking transition from ep 1 where it's a closeup of shuichi's face and it goes from his normal face to his more freaked out face in the space of a few frames...that singlehandedly was more natural and impactful than pretty much everything in this episode.

it doesn't help that i think they overdid it with trying to adapt the material this time around. it's constantly switching plot threads in ways that don't really fit (why on earth would kirie and shuichi not stop to get kirie some nourishment right after she passes out from the hair?? why is that the best time to conclude the snail plotline?? and then immediately hopping over to the lovers plotline???)

but to its credit at least, everything on a sound/audio front is still really good! the VAs do a good job, the sound design is appropriately horrifying, and the score is still fitting and enhances the mood (that is unfortunately being killed by everything we're seeing but it tries its best 💀)

I’m waiting (restless, shaking, maybe even giggling a bit) for the Twisters (2024) DVD to come out.

I remember pre-ordering the soundtrack album and then when it officially released I would get so many adds and be tempted to buy it again. I had to be like “no you have twisters album at home!!”

Apocalypse Now (1979) Francis Ford Coppola

[tarantula-hawk-wasp]

mad max fury road really was a movie of all time forever like the soundtrack went so hard and the aesthetics were so strong and deliberate and the worldbuilding was complex but comprehensible and the character designs were so interesting and Imperator Furiosa and the wives and the granny biker gang and the guitarist on bungee chords with flames and everything
