Birds of a Feather
previous / next
#my art#feralnette au#birds of a feather#long tags#sorry I went apeshit in the tags#LETS SAY IT ALL TOGETHER NOW#I - M - A - G - OOOOOOOOO#its fun drawing marinette's back to Alya and having her appear stout and unstoppable and totally logical#and then you see her face and she's like two seconds from completely snapping and is keeping it together by a thread#as a note just because mari feels very certainly abt smth doesnt mean she's right. feelings can be valid and also irrational#in the throes of grief she decided it was better to be alone than to lose someone again so she started pulling away#and lila made pulling away very very very easy to do#shes also vaguely aware she's being unfair in pinning this on alya which is why she started spinning the drain on cockmoth again#legitimately all the shit that's happened to her wouldn't have been so catastrophic if he was never in the picture and she knows it#but the bitterness of her bestie choosing a fantastic liar over her at the worst of times stiiiiiings#alya's personal timing was bad but lila really took advantage of the fact that marinette had been acting off and weird#she basically clocked marinette as being unstable from SOMETHING and made up a lie about her#knowing she wouldn't have the strength to defend herself#between her social life going tachy bc of lila and losing fu in a way that felt like personhood death marinette was really put on the spot#and alya doing her thing of busting in there and assuming her bias is correct was a terrible combo#essentially marinette is highly unstable and alya is just realizing that#busting in and giving her a lecture when she's slightly hysterical and definitely delirious from exhaustion is NOT the way#to show her she's self sabotaging#cuz thats just gonna make her double down on self sabotaging. bc marinette will not accept that she is also a CHIIIIILD

You know, I've been thinking about it, and it is absolutely essential to the narrative that Jiang Cheng is a dick and a trash fire. (Affectionate.)
Like, first of all, if he was a sainted little angel of a shidi the way Jiang Yanli is a shijie, Wei Wuxian's choices would become obvious, sort of impersonal, and boring.
Sure, lots of people wouldn't tear themselves apart for such a person in such a scenario, but they're not the protagonists of novels, are they; in a book you have to justify not doing that. So white lotus Jiang Cheng is off the table.
Jiang Cheng who isn't fragile-and-insecure but also stubborn-as-hell and violently reactive also won't wash.
If he wasn't the kind of person who sincerely tries to die under these circumstances, Wei Wuxian would have had the option of loyally supporting him in a less self-destructive way; if he was someone who could be trusted to handle the revelation without suffering a ruinous fracture of identity, Wei Wuxian wouldn't have been forced to distance himself after the war, because he could have come clean.
If Jiang Cheng wasn't the kind of person who centers on his own pride and hurt feelings and lashes out about it, it would be very hard to set up the lategame scenario where they're 'enemies' in a real, meaningful way, despite still loving each other and Wei Wuxian never wishing Jiang Cheng any ill. Even with Jiang Yanli's death.
And I mean, you could get most of the plot without doing this interesting thematic examination of the classic 'bond between martial brothers severed by one going to the dark side' trope, but I'd argue you'd lose an enormous chunk of the story.
And without Jiang Cheng's weaknesses, Wei Wuxian's motives don't cohere. His weaknesses form the foundation of at least two of the backstory's major turning points.
There's the tantalizing possibility that Wei Wuxian wouldn't have done it, if Jiang Cheng hadn't strangled him while blaming him for everything.
Probably he would have, all else being equal! But neither we nor Jiang Cheng can be sure.
Jiang Cheng sucking a lot, and knowing his own flaws perfectly well without that granting him the ability to do much about them, is heavily load-bearing. Which gives him such a fantastic implied point of view!
#hoc est meum#i love jiang cheng i do#and the way wwx backed him into a corner where he had no good choices#by withholding information to protect him#is genuinely awful for him! it's so unfair!#but he can't say wwx was wrong about any of his assessments either#can he#but also he's a shithead whose mother repeatedly reinforced the idea that being a shithead#was a necessary component of having self-respect as an elite scion#and being worthy of respect and love#but also was the unalterable reason his father would only ever consider him a disappointment#and he's a mess and entitled and cruel and he dislikes himself quite a lot#while also thinking so very highly of himself#and he's awful without being *bad*#and basically mxtx had so much fun with the category of villain in this book#even though she wasn't being as loud about it as in svsss#mdzs#meta#jiang cheng

I've been reading Bartender, so ofc I did a crossover with my current obsession
AU where Sasakura is a bartender on Gunsmoke
#trigun#midvalley the hornfreak#bartender manga#<- bringing that tag back from the dead with my bs🕺#sasakura ryuu#kurushima miwa#kawakami kyouko#wakui tsubasa#shinxo art#it's a guilty pleasure crossover ok? cut me some slack /j#midvalley likes to drink and sasakura likes to make drinks. boom! bffs#smth smth midvalley hides away in sasakura's saloon when he wants a break from ghg gigs. he gets to relax and play the sax for the bar#sasakura knows he's not a normal guy but he doesnt judge. as long as he doesnt kill anyone#this lil guy gives me SO MUCH cuteness aggression it's so unfair 😩#i HIGHLY recommend Bartender for iyashikei fans or those who like liquors cocktails and such. it's nothing short of amazing. a true gem

Sometimes I wish that Christians who aren't extremists could just fucking shut up about it. Like we GET IT. You're sorry us traumatized folks went through shit. You think the extremists that hurt us are doing Christianity wrong. That's GREAT. You think everyone deserves god's love. That's GREAT. Please stop apologizing for people who don't love us. Please stop trying to justify why you still follow Christianity knowing its flaws. And for the LOVE OF GOD please stop saying "God loves everyone" or shit like that because WE FUCKING KNOW. We know and that's NOT reassuring, if it was we would have stayed.
#vent post#ex christian#look this is highly personal and unfair to people that's why it goes on the vent blog#i am not the arbiter of the correct way to interact with religiously traumatized folks#if anyone takes this as a serious indictment of what to do if you're a christian who feels bad about the way christians treat people#i will be the first to punch you#don't take this too seriously#got it?#good

Colleen: Sorry Allura, Katie can't go shopping with you. She's grounded because someone thinks demon summoning is an acceptable hobby for a fifteen year old girl.
(Keith chooses now to walk in.)
Keith: Uh. Am I in trouble too?
Colleen: No, you're just fine, Keith.
#demon in space au#pidge: that is SO unfair. keith help me out here#keith: mm. nope. not bound by a contract anymore. you're on your own. bye.#pidge: KEITH!#pidge's (highly improvised) guide to demons

Eyesome propaganda (Patreon)
#Doodles#Wander Over Yonder#Commander Peepers#Emperor Awesome#Eyesome#So hey I love them also#Have I mentioned lately that I'm a polyshipper lol#Then again Peepers is like impossible not to ship with multiple cast members so there's that lol#He just so happens to very neatly fit into my niche!#I'm sure he's very happy about it lol#Stick that man in situations stat#This is also slightly Awesome propaganda because I do genuinely think he At The Very Least has the potential to be very interesting#He's misused in episodes like Bad Neighbors but tbh who isn't :P Shame it's one of his and the Fist Fighters' few episodes unfair#My favourite appearance of his is probably The Cool Guy :D He gets to show off some of his more interesting facets!#Like the fact that he's decently good at reading people - owed to or reason for his popularity? You decide lol#And to that end manipulating people - he sees what someone wants and ''gives'' it to them for a price >:)#That's honestly why I think him pursuing a relationship/manipulation strike with Peepers would be so interesting#Peepers is ''real'' for lack of a better word lol - he's highly dedicated to his beliefs and motives and isn't one to fold easily#Awesome is the opposite - he's a cowardly hedonist who enjoys his shallow lifestyle as it affords him carnal comforts above all else#So their dynamic is an interesting one I think! :D I think they'd serve each other well haha ♪#Peepers gets to cut loose a bit and Awesome is forced to develop a genuine relationship to some degree#And then there's also the size difference again lol - look some things are allowed to be exactly their face value! Haha#Peepers is so flipping cute hhggg I love him <3 And Awesome is so fun to draw in that mix of cartoony and Slight-slightly more realistic#His proportions are still extremely cartoony but drawing him with proper pectorals and a ribcage and the like is so fun <3 <3#Peepers is still the most fun to pose tho I just feel so free to stretch and squish him around haha#Him sitting! Him laying down blustered! Pressing his feet against Awesome's chest to try to push away from him!! He's so fun!!#Plus finally drawing the more-than-half-closed eye style as sometimes featured ahhhhh <3 <3 This show man I swear#Not even mentioning going back to three-finger after so long on four haha ♪ It's been a while and it's just as fun!

anyway. it okay. im giving myself time to just be chill. im gonna start panicking when i get there. i still have 5 hours till then and rn im more preoccupied with the fact that i feel like i might be getting my period today and it better not happen on the train or ill kms and everyone on it
#i genuinely dont know if i do feel the grief#in some way for sure but also im. 1. not sure i have the right to actually feel it 2. even IF i am feeling it. its highly probable#im just repressing it and unconsciously beating it back with a stick because babygirl rn? i feel nothing#could be the shock too#but im kinda feeling worse about how im NOT feeling all that bad#cause i should. he never did anything wrong to me and i never did hate him. we just didnt get each others vibe#anyway it's so fucking unfair towards my mom. the fact that her bitch of a mother is still alive while he's dead.#i know its not her fault but i kinda hate her for being still alive lol she should have died 12 years ago#it would have been better for everyone. but nvm. i wish it was me too. my mom doesnt fucking deserve that ffs

me: Alright, I've got one more question. What happened to this [NPC who was just invented]?
@dieselpunkd: Do not try to talk to this NPC a player just made up. Don't do this to me.
me: I'M GOING TO THE LIBRARY TO LEARN SENDING TO CALL HER RIGHT NOW, DON'T THINK I'M NOT.
#megs is playing dnd#i do in fact now know sending#hilariously all three of my characters currently know sending and they are all a nightmare to hear from in very different ways#isabella is a highly precocious 11 year old (self-explanatory)#the satyr is a highly paranoid fey#amana is ancient and also part of an incredibly unsettling hivemind!#first rule of sending is only playing characters who no one wants to hear from#actually this is unfair to isabella who everyone does want to hear from but also asks very 11 year old questions#ANYWAY

thinking about daredevil yellow again im not. going to make it Guys.
#static.soundz#crying screaming and hitting the ground. so good. it made me cry really bad#bc whenever i think about jack n matt it always makes me think of me n my dad for various reasons#when matt said i couldnt feel his heartbeat inside me anymore. no words.#i rambled about it on my main but dd is very much intwined in an interesting and special way with my own heavy grief about my dad#and matt was a very important character to me during that time of my life for the exact same reason.#it's why i take a lot of very heavy issue when things try to make it so his dad died in his childhood as opposed to college#bc a) think it takes away a lot of the important nature of their relationship and b) my own personal projection#bc all grief at any stage is highly personal and unique and particular#but it really does feel like. matt is really just starting to become an adult (depending whether he dies when matt's in under or post grad)#(bc i can never remember which) but he's not quite a mega established one. there's still that lingering of childhood#so even though he's grown. it just hurts in a very particular way. they saw you grow up. but they didnt really see you become an adult.#they did not see the person you're going to be. that you are. that you're becoming. it feels like such a bizarre unfair moment in time.#bc why now? why not when i was younger? why not when i was truly an adult adult who is expecting to lose you now?#why at this moment and no other time?#but thinking about matt going i wish i told my dad how much i loved him.#more than anything when he goes 'i love you dad. did you hear? i love you.'#it made me cry like a fucking bitch. honest to god tearing up when i type about it. it wrenches my heart it twists it and it makes me wanna#drop to my knees and just weep and weep and weep. they are everything to me.#i have intertwined a lot of matt's grief with mine in a way that makes him so so so important to me. because as stupid as it fucking sounds#that comic and him as a character are everything to me. so genuinely. they were a lifeline my freshman year#when i was so depressed all i could do was read comics. or listen to music#i could do nothing else. i did. clearly. i did work and assignments. but dd was everything to me alongside dm#im sorry i am being an actual like nutbag in my tags im sorry i just have a lot of feelings. this story is everything to me ever ok? ok.

I just want to say that this whole situation feels…off. There’s something WRONG but I can’t quite place it. I don’t know why. I want to trust my gut - something feels fishy - but I can’t figure out what that could entail. Am I alone in this?
#my best idea is that it’s a fucking lore bit but that feels WILDLY unfair and also HIGHLY UNLIKELY. like they wouldn’t do that#the other is privacy but honestly that wouldn’t bring much oddities so. I’m not sure#forever situation

‘i dont understand why our fans rate davies so highly’ bro there’s like 30 of us overall that like davies, majority of our fans have shat on him since he walked through the door, hate him for simply not being as fast as rose (whilst 50% of them didn’t even like rose), and give him abuse under every single thing the club post about him, he’s not well liked at all ?????
#sorry i've just seen someone say this on twitter and its wound me up because ben is hated by most of our fans (unfairly imo but i am biased)#kinda reminds of when i saw someone say winks should have been getting the hate dele was getting when things were first starting to go wrong#for him under jose as if dele wasn't generally one of the most loved players still then where as winks was getting death threats every game#dele had people defending him like their lives depending on it and at points it was delusional i cant lie#but winks was no afforded any of the same patience as soon as he had a few bad games he was getting the shit that carroll and mason got#(and skippy's starting to get it now too must be a midfield academy graduate thing lmao)#(obvs people turned on dele after and i think people are very unfair to him but they werent at first)#anyway i've got distracted. send the people who rate ben highly my way i wanna chat to them#stacey speaks
