#speaking abt trolls

[aridatinas-art]

teensy self-indulgent thing I doodled 2 or 3 months ago (??) that I didnt feel confident in posting until now?? funny how artist mind work like that :,D

For those confused, she's referring to Scandinavian trolls. In the stories they can be as huge as mountains - they're often depicted with literal forests on their backs - and they turn to stone once exposed to sunlight. We have a mountain range called The Seven Sisters with a story behind it like that! It's about seven sister trolls traversing a valley in an attempt at getting home, but they get caught by the sunrise and become the mountains ):

thinking abt transfem branch forever but today its abt her coming out

she comes out to her siblings first who all already knew bc she's bad at hiding it, n then she dances around the subject w poppy for a bit bc she's nervous things'll change

ultimately she tells poppy she has something to tell her but she's scared so poppy says that branch can tell her at whatever pace she needs to. they end up just sitting together quietly for a while before branch works up the nerve to say it out loud. poppy had a hunch n is excited for her but branch is clearly overwhelmed so she just goes

"y'know what?" ".....what?" "i have a very pretty girlfriend :]"

link click yingdu ep 1 is truly the gift that keeps on giving the more you think about it the more layers you unlock. at first i thought the 'video call with phone in shirt pocket' trick is a pretty effective way of replicating their dives with like.. normal human technology without their powers and then i realised that's probably because lu guang specifically thought 'this is a situation that would call for a dive except cheng xiaoshi doesn't know about the whole time travel powers thing yet, what would be a good and reasonable approximation of that that i can spring on him rn'. also, we know this is not the first time he's experiencing this day because he was checking the clock before he proposed the whole video call phone camera thing, implying that he had the 'script' for this day just like he did with the anime convention, but even then he could only warn cheng xiaoshi about the guy behind him with the bat right before he was about to get hit - probably because cheng xiaoshi kept 'doing unnecessary actions' and messing up the timeline/lu guang's 'script' and forcing him to improvise. once again, lu guang's trying to protect cheng xiaoshi while also hiding information from him and cheng xiaoshi's failing to follow lu guang's instructions and putting himself in danger because of his own kindness and impulsivity - their entire dynamic moving forwards, captured in their first (arguably more like.. the 0th) 'job' together.

Stranger Things Trolls I thought up a couple years ago <3

[clownrosary]

what they dont tell u abt unexpectedly being the commenter to affect a celebrity's opinions on religious organizations is that u will still be finding alt-right/extremist hate comments about ur 18 yr old self years later. sucks man!

[bumpscosity]

i like all the ppl mad that those super clones weren't anything bc the cycle of

1. Cool looking guy shows up

2. Everyone's decides that bc they look cool they must have a deeper meaning to the story

3. Cool looking guy dies and everyone's pissed bc since they looked cool they must have a major meaning in the plot

has literally been going on in the star wars fanbase since boba fett in rotj

[morgombie]

wish i could let the thigh/waist-up sprites go... its so much easier to do busts... but i like waist up so i cant do anything else :weary:

Seifer + Reshaper!!!!!!!

@afallatmak @yaebloom

1) … rate the ship:

pls N O | not shipping it | nah | maybe | I WISH it’d work | yasss | I ship it | wOW PLEASE!

2) … tell you shortly about how I think they’d work (or why they wouldn’t) in that quad/general opinion

GODDDD Okay... So, regardless of how much chemistry they had in the past when they were both active fleet together, Seifer wants Reshaper dead at this point. I really don't know what it would take, if anything, to quell the rage and soften the betrayal he feels about that guy...

I mean Seifer saw Tavian (Reshaper) not that long ago, fun fact! Only 10 or so sweeps back Tavian made a visit to speak with an old associate and that associate worked on Seifer's current Fleet vessel. They made eye contact at opposite ends of the hall and actually had a brief altercation where Seifer violently tried to end his old friend. :]

HOWEVER,, In the past they were extremely close, I'm talkin' Seifer was his Lieutenant General and right-hand man. Seifer was given relatively free reign of his own small squad and was the first and few who knew about Tavian's romantic entanglement with Vanalliea. Seifer really trusted and valued Tavi's wisdom, free spirit, and peaceful, knowledge-seeking approach to fleet work. He wanted to be the one his general went to if he wanted to talk about what was on his mind or any time he doubted himself, y'know?

Plus, they'd known eachother since early in both of their fleet careers! Seifer admired Tavian's drive and determination to get a better position as a mutant and by fucking god did he get it-- and he brought Seifer up along with him!

Uhh.. rest under the cut bc I rambled a bit....

Tavian and Seifer would spend evenings chatting and cracking playful remarks at each other frequently, and they were known sparring partners. In the wink wink way and also in a fighting fr way--

They had a connection and a closeness in the past! One that Seifer fell into very strongly.. he def had some strong pale feelings with sprinkles of pitch tbh. The thing was, Tavian wasn't manipulating or using him by any means, but... he didn't really understand those feelings?

It was never about any intimate, romantic type connection for Tavian, it was just fun and enjoyable with someone he was entertained by the company of! And he kinda didn't take Seifer's feelings very seriously or acknowledge them much at all... other people's emotions felt alien to him and a bit like his playthings, at times. If that break of trust had never happened and they instead met now, after Tavian's grown more understanding and in tune with those things, then I think they could've had a real chance at being together,,

Dia that's pretty gay

“Do you really think a guy who dresses like this would be straight in any capacity?”

[astral-ardors]

grips jules,

2, 5, 6, 16..........

2: When was the last time you touched yourself?

"This is incredibly inappropriate to ask me, you know."

"...Sometimes I find myself feeling a bit pent up, and that's really the only way to deal with it, so, perhaps a couple days ago if I had to guess?"

5: Your favorite sexual activity? (For example, Intercourse, oral, masturbation.)

"I rather enjoy foreplay... when I can manage to keep myself together for it, at least."

6: List three different places you’ve had sex, if there aren’t three, name three places you’d like to have sex?

"If you expect me to answer with anywhere but my or someone else's hive, then you clearly have the wrong impression of me. My previous hive and both of my ex-quads places, as well."

16: How long does your foreplay last?

"Well, that would depend on any potential partner I have, as well as our type of chemistry in such a situation. As much as I enjoy it, I can only handle it for so long myself."

the captions Do say "[inner flame]" whenever the inner flame speaks instead of "[candle]"

[reign-life]

Also Sephora had to speak up and say that no, these chemicals were not in the lotion

"average person sees 3 spiders a year" factoid is a statistical error. Sephora Georg, who attracts 3 million horny spiders with the spider sex lotion, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

[amethyst-halo]

the idea of trolls going gray from the top down like the color is draining from them is inchresting but i also raise you: going gray starts at the heart

[beescake]

i am in love with your sollux i think

sollux love party :]

if you’re interested heres some of my personal fondness thoughts on him.. big warning for the mega long read ahead aye

as we alr know sollux's rejection of participation somewhat mirrors dave's rejection of heroism, but even without getting cooked to completion i still find sollux's character v compelling beyond the fourth wall

as someone who doesnt get a pinch of that Protagonist Sparkle to begin with, he can openly say he wants to leave anytime…. and unlike dave, he actually Can leave the scene anytime. but he can never be truly Free from the story via permanent character death like the other trolls.

his irrelevancy is indeed relevant - he’s there so u can point him out.

while his image is intended to be a relic of past internet subculture, his role is not only about hehehaha being a Chad or a 2000s cyberforum 2²chan haxxor ragequit gamebro.

his continued existence also happens to add a Bit to the overarching themes of homestuck! a Bit that gives him longer-lasting thematic relevance compared to the trolls who could’ve had more character potential but didnt get to survive beyond the main story.

the Bit in question:

his defiance contributes to the illusion of agency (treating characters = people with autonomy). he’s “aware” of it, and that recognition is worth noting enough to forcibly keep him alive as both reward and punishment.

considering how his personality & classpect is designed its definitely a very haha thing for hussie to do LOL. he’s made to be op asf so he's resigned to doing dirty work, gradually deteriorating along the way but never truly dying. as fans have mentioned before, him openly rejecting involvement after a while of grim tolerance is like if the sim u were controlling suddenly stopped, looked up and gave u the finger while u were step six into the walkthrough for Every Possible Sim Death Animation.

but since he’s just a sim… the more he hates it, the more you keep him around. if ur sim started complaining abt your whimsical household storyline you’d definitely keep that little fuck.

but yeah i like that sollux is just idling. the significance of his presence being that one dude who's always reliably Somewhere, root core Unchanged, no individual ambitions (possibly due to fear of consequence?), and design-wise: a staple representative product of his time.

compared to dirk's character, who has aged phenomenally well into the present (themes of control + AR + artificial intelligence, clearer exploration around navigating relationships/sexuality, infinite possibilities of self-splinterhood and trait inheritance), sollux's potential is really... contained. bitter. defeatist. limiting and frustrating in the way old tech is.

the world continues moving on to shinier, brighter, more advanced automated things - minimalist and metaverse or whatever but sollux is still here 🧍‍♂️ going woohoo redblue 3d. (tho personally i imagine his vibe similar to what the kids call cassette futurism on pinterest mixed w more grimy grunge insectoid influences eheh)

conceptually-speaking,

at the foundation of it all, the rapid pace of modern development was built off the understanding of ppl like sollux in the past, who were There actively at work while the dough was still beginning to rise

thats one of the cool things abt the idea of trolls preceding humans! the idea that trolls like sollux excelled back when lots of basic shit still needed to be discovered, building structures like networks and codes from scratch, and humans will eventually inherit and reinvent that knowledge in ways that become so optimized it makes the old manual effort seem archaic, slow, and labour-intensive.

but despite information/resources/shortcuts being more accessible now, much of the new highly-anticipated stuff released on trend still end up unfinished, inefficient, or expiring quickly due to cutting corners under severe capitalistic pressures

meanwhile, some of the old stuff frm past generations of thorough, exploratory and perfectionistic development still remains working, complete, and ever so sturdy.

those things continue to exist, just outside our periphery with either:

zero purpose left for modern needs (outdated/obsolete)

or

far too important to replace or destroy, bcs of its surprisingly essential and circumstantial usefulness in one niche specific area.

which are honestly? both points that sum up sollux pree well.

dramatic ending sorry. anw are u still on the fence or are u Sick abt him like me </3

[iocles]

Shidou HCs :3

it's bbg hour.

• Loud chewer. I just know it 🙁

• Like, he could be in a library, just with a bag of chips, and everything would be fine- until he starts eating them. Shidou and Takis are a lethal combo.

• He's gotta be like half Colombian, my radar is going off (I'm half Colombian, he's got the skills of an atlético nacional player)

• Probably writes emojis into whatever he writes, if he can't text 'em he'll speak them, write them, anything

• Gyaruo. Shidou IS a gyaruo. Yes, he can do parapara

• His hair looks sharp, but is actually pretty soft despite all the product he uses

• Has to buy a new eyeliner every few weeks💔💔

• He steals phones from his friends like a super senior. It is SO annoying

• He only says freaky things to his guy friends, and if he dates anyone, then they have to hear it too

• Spam calls Sae on purpose for no reason, just to say he didn't mean to and it was him "buttdialing"

• You best believe Sae is on the verge of blocking him every time.

• PRO fortnite player, you'll never catch him lacking🙊

• He used to bully kids on Roblox before his account got banned from so many reports from 7 year olds

• Even while people may think he's dumb from first glance, he's actually really smart- he just doesn't try hard enough in some of his classes

• When Shidou was born, he looked like those little troll dolls (still does)

• If he was an American highschool student, he'd be the type to play music REALLY loudly from a speaker in his backpack the moment he walks in.. 😒

• HATES sherpa, I just feel like he's the type to hate sherpa yk

• He makes playlists with stupid names or emojis like "goon👅👅" or something stupid

• FIRE just dance player, he does NOT miss a move and WILL get down

okay, thats all the dumb stuff I can think abt rn, these r kinds just shitpost headcanons at this rate😣 pls tell me u enjoyed before I sulk and quit and never open tumblr again
