#tagging my two top fandoms:

[4nikki21]

Hi! I’m Nikki a senior in high school (currently)! I do drawing a bit, and now that I am (somewhat) better and quicker at it, I thought I’d do something with it!!

As someone who’s visited family friends working in areas facing lower healthcare funding, I’ve seen how stressed the healthcare system can be under even standard conditions. With the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Palestine, their healthcare system has been nearly wiped out, leaving many, many civilians without medical care for anything.

Organizations such as Doctors Without Borders (MSF) have doctors in Gaza actively responding to the crisis. They are an impartial humanitarian organization, and are calling for an immediate ceasefire due to the devastation and loss of human life that is currently going on.

The organizations Middle East Children’s Alliance (MECA) and Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF) also have on-the-ground operations in Gaza.

If you donate 10 USD (or more) to one of these organizations and send me a receipt via email, I will make you a drawing of whatever you want (within reason).

I swear to god 99% of people watching WL forgot who won SL. Put some respect on his name

Sorry to gatekeep but some of you haven't watched the clone wars and it shows.

Not pictured: the force being exclusive OR Yoda jealously guarding jedi teachings

(that was the first episode btw)

Youngling: How did he break the ice? Yoda: Only water made solid was the door. Easy to break if you have the will. ( chuckles ) Youngling: You-you said we would be trapped. Yoda: Not by the cave you were but by your mind. Lessons, you have learned. Find courage, you did...

Not pictured: Yoda teaching jedi children to accept his "dogma" without question.

(this is one of the pivotal coming of age ceremonies in a young jedi's life and it specifically includes a lesson on not blindly trusting authority)

It feels so weird seeing my Tumblr and Twitter tls going crazy over the Riptide hiatus update and PD being on break still meanwhile I’m here like “the last thing Apotheosis related we’ve gotten has been the Thanny Nation shirt. While back they said they would do an Apotheosis bad ending What If but it has yet to exist. Omg Total Monster Kill soundtrack I still need to listen to that.”

Twice this week I have received comments on Can’t Help Falling in Love critiquing my use of tags and I’m just like?

those “extra” tags have been there for four years? no im not going to delete them?? I think if it truly was a big issue one of my moots/writer friends would’ve brought it up to me by now???

I use tags to express my creative voice and personality. And I DO include lots of real tags.

if someone makes something FOR FREE and it’s not harmful maybe just say what you like about it and move on?

like? do yall like my tags?? have my tags dissuaded you from checking out my stuff??? because I’ve been posting on ao3 since 2019 and this is the first time anyone has ever brought it up :/

Thank you for always answering questions, thank you for being kind and most of all; thank you for everything.

I’m still always intimidated by you because you’re so kind and popular. I understand you are human but it’s surreal being your friend.

Anyway: I hope I can be more brave?

Hope you have a happy fourth! ❤️

I wish I could better convey how little anyone should revere me in this space, or be afraid of talking to me. I promise I don't bite, nor am I like, sitting on a mountaintop gazing down at everyone else like I think I'm better than them. I think maybe people would feel like it was easier to talk to me if they knew that.

Anyway I hope you do say hi someday- and remember that we're both just two people who happen to like the same book series/characters at the same time/same place, which I think is kind of cool. Imagine if we'd never read it, you know? We wouldn't even be talking at all

[saw-x]

rules: make a poll with your top 10-12 least favorite ships ever and have your followers try to guess which one is your #1 notp, then tag people to do the same.

i was tagged by the lovely @userlaylivia ty for the tag <3

tagging (no pressure ofc): @abramsgracies @annacoleman @narliee @noajennifers @bakerolivia and anyone who sees this and would like to do it

[forcebookish]

feel like i'm being gaslighted by the ofs fandom like where are all these wild think pieces coming from we can't possibly be watching the same ONE EPISODE of the same drama

anyway,

Hey big fan. How tall do you think the androids in DL are?

Not gonna lie, it's always a bit shocking to hear one has made anything to earn a 'big fan', but thank you very much nonetheless!

As for your actual question, though, I think they're roughly about human height, judging by art? Of course I've gone over how art sometimes varied wildly in height, but as mentioned in that post if you have seen that, Dragalia did seem to try and keep a 'comparison heights' straight, at least. They might not have kept straight if Euden was 4'11 or 5'9 but he was shorter than Ranzal and Luca, etc.

And what we see in the wyrmprints, they seem consistently human in size:

(Well, these are both with sylvans, but sylvans are human in height as well, ears notwithstanding, so the point stands).

As funny as it might have been if every android was big or really tiny, I think it probably makes sense that, being created and wished for them to be 'humans' by Maestro, they resemble humanity as much as possible.

Now, just because Laxi, Mascula, and the androids from their era are human sized, others might not be.

They're a recreation of the older models in another case of Dragalia's humans trying to resurrect older tech, the same tech that made the dragons Very Displeased 1k years ago.

Now, Eireene and Finni, who unfortunately have among my personal least favorite designs in Dragalia, don't really give any indication either of being a wildly different size than Laxi or Mascula. Like this art here, where they are about the same size as Laxi and in a similar 'dwarfed by Ranzal' category most everyone falls into to varying degrees.

That doesn't mean there aren't standouts.

Anassa, for example, seems to carry a much bigger presence in her art. Being something of a commander and command center for the 1k year old model androids, it stands to reason she might have more weapons built in, more data processors, or other things in greater quantity. While we don't have a model or comparative art to truly say for certain that she is bigger, she certainly looks it.

(Does she even have legs??? Is she a roomba that would be foiled by anything over a 15° incline or a sudden height change, ex, stairs??? I mean yeah, doesn't she fly and drop down the one time, but even then, there's any number of environments that might make it awkward or impossible to use it to navigate a hazard.)

Ahem. Anyways, the point is that the general androids, be it Maestro's recreations or their elder Nier:Dragalia -er, Ex Machina, a part of the Humanoid Liberation Agency/the ones living in the sky, seem to be human sized. But there might be a few special model ones out there like Anassa who serve a unique and important purpose to justify the time, energy, and resources designing and creating them to fulfill their goal.

Now, admittedly, androids in Dragalia would be a weak point in my general knowledge since they never really quite struck a chord with me enough to inspire a fixation on them, but yeah, as far as I can tell, they're human-sized with perhaps some rare exceptions. The most I can say that might not be wholly normal is their apparent tendency towards a sort of gaunt build, which, to be fair, it's not exactly as if they can build muscle to change that.

Hopefully that answered your question satisfactorily!

Have zenitsu birthday art queued, drawing him is like constantly getting back with your shitty ex

[galacticlamps]

very minor thing I still definitely deserve a medal for:

being raised catholic, and now as an adult repeatedly falling in love with characters that fandoms like to declare catholic, but still managing to reject those headcanons because at heart I'm too much of a stickler for accurate analysis to get behind them when i know the person in question is really meant to be anglican/episcopalian/whatever other flavor of christian

i am being, as the poets say, so brave about it

fic trope tier list

tagged by @kinnbig - thank youuu 🥰

this is a very fun tag game: rank all the tropes in order of how excited you'd be to see them in the tags of a new fic by one of your favourite authors ✨

my process for sorting all of these went a lil something like this:

sorting all of them initially: ha ha! yes! this is so easy! going back through all the lowest-tier things i hate to make sure they're all correct: ha ha! yes! this is so easy! going back through all the other tiers to make sure they're all correct too: ...what the fuck. this is Difficile!
