#tbf i havent finished the season....

[courtillyy]

ill be real i feel like spike has added nothing to this season

[rheemaggie]

anyways my main faceclaim for maggie is margaret qualley and i think i'm genius for that

[verdantglow]

that makes so much sense actually. i also am making some aus (unrelated) and am wanting to seperate them into little ficlets/art pieces/comics of the pieces that motivate me before even touching on an overarching story but also god is it difficult for me. if thats what works for you as well id definitely say treat it like that (also i would LOVE to see any animatics you do for this)

i personally am mostly watching the hermits doing their hermit crafting (currently watching 18 hermits simultaneously the hyperfixation is b a d) and a couple SOS members, though i plan to watch more of the creators. I've really only seen up to double life (all through grians pov), and i havent even finished that. in my defence, the "its for your secret soulmate" line utterly and completely destroyed me and i have NOT recovered since (i stopped watching his hermitcraft videos after that too until the start of s10).

i have made the resolution to go watch other povs but i need to finish his first rip.

ANYWAY BACK TO THE AU

How often do you think the vflarp games effect their out of game relationships? like obviously it led to them becoming friends and desert duo becoming "moirails" but like. Did double life cause a rift between grian and scar? has rendog being absent from the games had any significance on anything? (i havent watched further so i cant really give too many other examples). Do the winners get anything other than the satisfaction that they alone won?

absolute behemoth of an ask my bad

Yeah! There’s just something so appealing about being able to just jump around & do mini projects that go together rather than one huge one. I’m hoping it’ll hold off the burn out I inevitably get for my AUs. **stares off into the distance thinking about all my mega fics that only ever got three chapters** I get it being hard to break it down though! I hope you’re able to land at a place where you can create as easily & painlessly as possible. ^^

I feel you on the hyperfixation lol. I was doing that hermitblr survey that’s going around & realized that I watch every episode of a third of the server, & some to most episodes of another third. & there’s a handful in the final third that I’ve been meaning to watch, but haven’t gotten to because I’m so busy watching everyone else & thinking about fanworks. This season is just slamming all the good brain chemical buttons!

Tbf, “it’s for your secret soulmate” hit so fucking hard, I do not blame you an ounce for wanting to take a break after that! When you’re ready, I highly recommend Martyn’s 3rd life, it’s so good! I never quite got the Renchanting/Treebark hubbub as someone who’d only seen Grian’s perspective of that season, but after watching Martyn’s… The drama is just. So. Good. Martyn + Ren is just a combo of theatre kid lore nerds & it honestly slaps. Gem’s Secret Life is damn good as well, just ‘cause she got to be a chaos gremlin & we love to see it.

Oh yes, their VLARPing affects IRL relationships all the time! A lot of early relationships developed due to playing 3rd Life & those relationships continued on to influence who went on which ship once they reached adulthood! Obviously, we’ve got Scar & Griann, but also there’s Scohtt & Jimmie who became auspitices, & Wrehnn & Martyn who stick together & eventually become matesprits. Jimmie & Tangoh hit it off after playing Double Life as soulmates & eventually enter a [matespritship? Moiraillegance? Haven’t decided] as well. & of course, my beloved Boat Boys developed their weird whatevership around the same time. (Joel swears they’re pitch. Eethos never comments on it. The truth is somewhere around them being hate friends who are flushed for each other??? But fuck if you’ll ever get either of them to admit it.)

Things were pretty rocky for Scar & Griann after DL; the whole secret soulmate thing was a case of Griann being mildly annoyed with Scar & thinking he could get back at Scar/make Scar jealous. This blew up in his face ~*~spectacularly~*~ & it took quite a bit for things to heal between them. (Mummbo spent a lot of that time being very confused why the vibes on Scar’s ship were so fucking rancid until he managed to get Griann to fess up.)

There definitely is a plot related reason Wrehnn hasn’t been playing, but I’m holding back on finalizing anything until I get more of the out of game plot mapped out. But yes, that definitely affects/is an effect of things in game!

I think, much like in real life, winning is just for the prestige of it. Like, in this AU, the Life series is just a bunch of games they’re playing for the heck of it. Though this does make me think that I need to decide where these games come from, whether it’s a mass market thing or something Griann threw together or if maybe it came from some other outside influence. Hm…

[crqelsummer]

D..did you say T&B OCs? Bc if so I have quite a few of them

hahahahahahaha

yeah. tbf i watched the first season back in <2016 (maaaaaaybe 2017?)? i wanna say, bc i had stuff published on ffn.net (shhh), but thinking abt it makes me a little batty lol.

the one oc that still sticks out to me was, like my todosister saeka, actually barnaby's younger sister. i dont know why, dont know how but she went by lady luck and her next power was pretty similar to domino's from the deadpool movie.

i. after i finish watching the rest of mha i have a feeling im binging tf outta tiger and bunny 2 lmao

do tell abt yours! i havent watched anything other than the original season but i am surprised to find a fan in the wild lmao

[imjustchillinbud]

Sooo... don and Judy dont even get together?

[electraheart2012]

alsoooooooo i literally hate westworld but it's my bestie. it's the worst in the world and it shouldnt have been made. but it's actually artwork and should be archived in congress so. but it's actually kind of bad. but actually if you look at it in context its really well written. but actually also if you really think about it it's not that good.

[abd-illustrates]

Hi! Do you watch Supernatural? If you don't you really should! The gay tension is off the charts!

Never heard of it

[suzu-kun22]

Allison doesn’t use her powers because she could literally just break the entire plot under her boot by opening her mouth

[kickassfu]

Honestly idk why i went on anon either. I mean like I'm nervous and talking about anime these days [i havent properly caught up to anime since like the first season of Yuri on Ice lmao and i didnt finish it??? Its more the anime fan community i fell out with vs. Anime itself tbf but yeah] i guess but yeah that shot is from the 3rd movie. My roommate is super passionate about Beserk and has shown like everyone we know these films and it is actually really interesting to see the reactions!!

oh that’s fine, if you’re not comfortable u didn’t have to come out of anon!!! the last anime i watched was yuri on ice, and before that....i hadn’t seen anime for years xD i do read manga though!! i’m not super involved with the anime community, so idk how they are here on tumblr tbh.

ahhh i do love berserk (even tho it’s a story that u have to be in the mood for, ‘cause it’s dark af), at least the manga, couldn’t say about the movies!! but i do understand wanting to share what you like with other ppl hahaha there must be some really good reactions to it!

[ermuellert]

wtf is this skam show and is it worth watching and why? (Also I speak English and the show is in Dutch/Norwegian so how are subtitles?)

lmao im such a n00b tbh but i’ll give it a go

ok so skam is a norwegian tv show about a bunch of teenagers (i think around 16-19 years old) and each season is focused on one specific character and whatever the hell theyre goin thru atm wow this is like the most awful summary im not making skam sound appealing at aLL yikes

but personally i think it is defs worth watching!! i know i havent said much about it at all but it does, what i think is, a great job of portraying teens and their experiences growing up without being super extra/over the top 

the actors in skam are also all actually p young (unlike so many high school tv shows that have like 25+ actors portraying students like ????) and so so so lovely to watch tbh i doubt skam would be half as good as it is if it werent for their talented cast bc all the actors just make their characters seem so real theres a natural chemistry between all of them and it makes it all very heartwarming to watch 

and tbf the reason i started watching it was bc i saw a bunch of season 3 posts and since youre following me youve probs seen these posts bc woopS but anyway all im gonna say about season 3 is queer representation!!! and its not tacky its not cliche its not fetishized etc etc season 3 has a wonderful and lovely story line its great 

so i mean yeah if youre interested in that and youve seen all the fluffy romantic gifsets ive been postin relating to skam then you’ll probs like season 3 tbh tho it aint a total lovefest bc thatd be boring!! tv shows gotta always make their audience suffer so just beware lmao 

but anyway season 3 is probably a lot of fans’ favorite season (im making a really broad generalization here that may be baseless lmao) but id still urge u to watch the other two seasons!! preferably in order but lol what i ended up doing was watching half of season 1 then skipping to season 3 and then going back and finishing it up

they also have a great soundtrack ok 

skam also tackles a lot of themes (drugs and rape come up just as a warning) that are p relevant in a way that i think is well executed and it also portrays the development (and deterioration) of relationships very realistically so that even if u dont love the ship at first sight.....youre more than likely to start lovin it at least a lil over time!

basically this was all a huge mess i havent been able to talk to anybody about skam so i wasnt prepared for this lmao but skam is a lovely lovely show that i haven’t stopped thinking about it since i first started watching it and im so hyped for season 4 jfc im too in love with this show i swear

as for subs you can find a ton of links with subs!! theyre not always perfectly translated and by that i mean there might be like two or three really minor mistakes but its nothing that impedes your understanding of whats going on tbh and theres always google translate lmaO

if u end up watching it and wanna talk about it hmu!! i love this show too much to keep my mouth shut about it oml
