solas being denied bisexuality due to an extremely flimsy reason is turning me into the joker

[skunkes]

also I guess this is just an observation

but what is it with some pixel art games being so low contrast... I was finally going to give in and try out a farming sim lots of ppl enjoy despite the portrait art being not entirely to my tastes and then the pixels and environment are sooooo low contrast it made me change my mind again....like you do not have to be scared of dark colors and borders. Outlines. Smile.

stepping out of my grave solely to share i’m so excited to have ranching content but too bad the horses look like they’re made by someone who’s never seen a horse in real life 😔

[midfight-artchive]

hiii while searching for some MFM art i could have potentially saved i found a Pinterest acc archiving some of Dokki's art

idk if u know about it or if it is yours but i thought sharing it could help !!

This is a phenomenal find!! I'll definitely keep it in mind and download all of the MFM stuff I don't have from here someday soon. In the meantime, I'll share this with everyone so they can peruse whenever they want!!

Here is a link to the profile itself. The collection is very impressive, and there's more than just MFM stuff on it too!!

Fear vs War 2

Fright Knight was in Gotham trying to find his target. The clown was in Arkham, so he was going for the Scarecrow. He was hoping to find him before the rogue could spread any Artificial Fear. He was going for the Scarecrow's Minions, who preferred to go by goons, hoping to scare his location from them. when mortals meet him it triggered the 'fight or flight' instinct, as he was Phobos a God of fear. But in Gotham this was only a hinderance, because everyone choose fight. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

Fright Knight: *trying to scare some info from a goon*

Orphan:...*Waves her hand to get his attention*

Fright Knight: *startled but doesent jump* Can i help you?

Orphan: *signs*

Fright Knight: I can speak all languages, but not sign language. Truly a flaw in Divinity.

Spoiler: She's asking who you are and what are you doing here?

Fright Knight: I am Fright Knight! Greek god of Fear and Right hand to the Ghost King. I am here to punish the rogue know as Scarecrow for his crimes against my domain. He is out of Arkham Yes?

Spoiler: He's in the Hospital getting a colonoscopy. Hes like 50.

Fright Knight: i also planned on giving him a colonoscopy. but very well. i suppose ill just have to go visit Wonder Woman.

Spoiler: to avenge you're Father?

Fright Knight: HA! No, i wish to thank her on her victory and introduce myself to my aunt.

Spoiler: ah Ares is a shit father huh? I know the feeling.

Fright Knight: I advise you avoid saying his name, But yes War is no kinder to children then it is anyone else. Worse even...

Orphan and Spoiler: *nods*

Spoiler: Hey i gotta say NICE purple flames.

Fright Knight: Its not really a choice. My mother is pink and my father is black. together it makes purple. I dont suppose i could convince you to keep this visit a secret from the Batman. My liege doesent want his attention and paranoia.

Spoiler: oh you absolutely could- *she stops and puts a hand to her ear and talks to someone on the comms*. Hey lets make a deal. theres a riot in Arkham asylum. you help us clean that up and Batman will never hear a word of this. Deal?

Fright Knight: Deal. now what do you have in mind?

Spoiler: *Grins evilly*

(insert any jojo theme here)

As Arkham's riot continued many Rogues, convicts, and psych patients were making a escape attempt only one vigilante stood in their way. Spoiler looking strangely buff with her face more defined and over animated(jojo style) stood alone. In front of the rioting mod she struck a pose and behind her a black and purple knight appeared. Both of them struck a pose and flexed as a aura of fear and terror washed over the mob making them flee back into Arkham and into there cells.

True to their deal Batman never heard a word of this. They used sign instead.

[aziraphales-library]

Lost Fic #213

1. Hi folks! I’m looking for a fix I loved and clearly failed to bookmark. I don’t remember a ton except it’s post season 2, and Jesus is involved - Crowley knows where he is in hiding because they were close before the crucifixion, and he remembers places Jesus would have loved, I think. In the end I believe they realize that the keystroke has trapped God on earth in the US, and they go looking for her. I also vaguely remember that after everything settles, A&C send Jesus a birthday card and he teases them for sending it in December. Cuteness all around with some smut involved for good measure. Help! - anon

2. Hello! I have been looking for a fic for such a long time now so I decided to come here. It's mostly Crowley centered, and one thing I remember is that he argued with Aziraphale and after the argument he meets a human (an oc) who takes advantage of him and abuses him (i think r*pe was involved) and crowley is just suffering but then eventually he gets away- theres a scene where he finds aziraphale but aziraphale doesnt listen/believe to him. it might be a series fic idk, but please help! - anon

3. Do you or anyone else know of fic (written after S2 about the Second Coming) that goes like this: Blurb of a fic that described Jesus a bit like the book describes Adam with all the titles (like "Slayer of Satan" as an example). He was also born (again) in America, and the blurb listed the name of two human parents (not Mary and Joeseph), and mentioned that He's called John. I think the blurb uses the non-Anglicised name Yeshua or Yehoshua for him. - @vaguely-in-vogue

4. Hello I'm looking for a fic I remember reading a long time ago but can't find it (thought I bookmarked it). From what I remember it's set in medieval era, and Aziraphale has to go find and rescue Crowley after he was smote by Michael. I think there were moments where Crowley had lost his memories or was so traumatized he couldn't recognize Aziraphale, and he ended up partial naga/partially true form demon while he was recovering. Does this ring any bells? Thanks in advance! - anon

5. Hi I'm looking for a certain fic where Aziraphale falls after the apocalypse and gets horns and everything and has a ton of self image issues because of it. I've gone through the #fallen-aziraphale but I can't seem to find it. (Probably misremembering the description) - @rororowan02

If you know any of these fics please include the number in your reply! Thank you :)

[cripplecharacters]

Ahhh im sorry i tried to shorten it but it had to be several asks to get all the info across. hi! i havent been diagnosed with any physical disability (MIGHT have an autoimmune disorder, am neurodivergent) so i wanted to get a second opinion on this? Im sorry its rambly im not the best at being succinct. Or if this isnt something you can help with. basically im worried about leaning into tropes/stereotypes about wheelchair users being helpless or. Like, damsels in distress. (1/?)

or ~needing abled characters to save them~. its a scifi fantasy secondary world and the wheelchair user in question, P, starts using it about midway through his story because of hemiplegia as a side effect of magic use. im worried about his best friend, E. E is SUPER protective of P, but he generally defers to P on actual decisions. Hes a dogboy so excuse the pun but hes basically P’s guard dog. P DOESNT boss him around (aside from. Like. “hey back off that person doesnt mean any harm”) 2/? but E would literally do anything for him. P can handle himself, E is just. A selfappointed bodyguard of sorts.what im worried about is E being so protective being read less as him not wanting his best friend hurt and more as like. Savior type knight in shining armor deal. Especially in regards to right after the magic mishap because E is the only one around and ends up bringing P to the hospital and since they were in a secluded area if he hadnt been around theres a very real possibility (3/?) --P wouldnt have been able to get help. Im hoping it wont be a problem since E is like this before and after (and doesnt change his attitude / get More protective after aside from being like hey. Please stop trying to scry oh my god.) P gets his wheelchair, plus P is still VERY involved in the adventure, but im still a little wary. thoughts? & thank you for your time! im SO sorry this got so long i tried to make it shorter <//3

Hi! I get your concern, but I think that showing this characterization before P develops hemiplegia helps to make it clear that this is just how E is more than a reaction to P's disability. I am also happy to hear that you are writing a character with hemiplegia!

Thank you and happy writing!

[erebiatyndarus]

this may be too broad of an ask so sorry but i'm just getting into the sims 2 and want to recreate vtmb locations as well + make the game look more grungy and "alpha" i guess sims 4 players would call it. can you point me in the right direction in terms of your favorite mods or creators? thank you. also i am polish-american and your presence is so so welcome and your builds are amazing

thank you anon!

there's so many creators, i don't know where to begin

go to place for grunge, rusty-dusty cc - garden of shadows

Aviolina made some Silent Hill stuff worth checking out kativip has some good cc packs that i use a lot (S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Metro converted objects) Pixelhate has some nice Fallout convertions and more Adele got beautiful things (liam buid set my beloved)

check out this board by @zombies-who-speak-simlish

as you can see theres a pattern: 🔥converted objects🔥, try looking for cc by searching the sims 2 *name of a different game*

also, speaking of vtmb, my dear anon, we have been blessed by Yolartut who gave us these (scroll down a bit), just got them, beautiful, i'm mad at myself for only just now downloading them heh, now i want to recreate the whole chinatown part of vtmb

damn, wish there were more convertions from this game... (and half life, source engine stuff + the sims 2 is like a match made in heaven)

oh, and a lot of my cc tbh... comes from builds of other simmers xD i like to download any build that tickles my interest and analise how others design and decorate. later i end up with a bunch of cc in my build/buy catalog of unknown origin (don't really recommand doing this tho, this way i got some really nice stuff, but the mess and the amount of stuff i would later end up deleting, oh god)

hope i helped a bit

[lily-alphonse]

Maybe. Just maybe. The wizard x Mr. Qi? I’ve seen it before and it sounds interesting

I searched and searched because I could have sworn I had an idea for this a long time ago and it was in my discord chat with my friend @ao3-totallyhumanexe

May 22nd 2024:

>Is Wizard and mr Qi a ship? >Theres so much potential there Idk If they are I want to be between them Rivalry style Not poly But with both men being so powerful and crazy I really want to see them duke it out

>I do wonder who's more powerful

>For real yeah Mr Qi is very mysterious almost cryptid I think ppl headcanon them not liking each other

Battle of the cryptids.

They both think the other is foolish about their power. Qi is essentially a demigod, because he did a Forbidden Thing that would allow him to become one. Rasmodius could also do this Forbidden Thing if he wanted to, but prefers to hold on to his humanity and obtain functional immortality through magic anyways.

Qi is older and wiser than Ras, but through demigodhood has adopted the petulant attitude of a god. The world is his playground, and Rasmodius is kind of annoying because he can't be controlled as much as the other pawns in his game (because magic).

They need to be forced to work together somehow, the enemy of my enemy style. I have a few ideas for this one. I'm just gonna list them and not go into a full fic preview rn just because I don't want to pick one yet if anything you guys can pick it for me, if this wins the poll.

Incorporate the Ferngill Ministry of Magic from the expanded mod. Ras is in service to them. They do something so heinous that it finally crosses the line for him, and he needs Mr. Qi's help to resolve it. Probably something with Abigail, maybe bringing her into a life he never wanted for his illegitimate daughter.

Maybe we just bring back the vampire!Abigail idea for this one too? I love vampire!Abigail lmao what can I say. Mr. Qi pls save my daughter pls thx

The cryptid farmer is becoming too powerful and is going to do the Forbidden Thing but Qi knows it will end very badly (because the farmer is an agent of chaos). Qi wants to be the only demigod of chaos round these parts thank you very much. Ras would be kind of a double agent torn between sides for a while until eventually realizing he is right and they need to stop the farmer. Yes the farmer gets to play the villain how fun is that? Maybe they could even be stuck in a timeloop because of the game.

Using the ministry of magic again, they have found a way to make Qi mortal again and are coming after him. Ras is his only hope. It takes a lot of convincing that this would even be a bad thing in the first place, but maybe the issue is that the lead magistrate would take his place as a demigod and end up causing way more damage than him. That may or may not be a lie! Also! Maybe Qi just says that because his life is at stake because he's way too old he would die immediately if his mortality catches up to him. By the time the wizard finds out though he doesn't want Qi to die either but he lied to him in a major way so DRAMAAA

No matter what, this ship needs adventure. It's plot-driven and complicated and slow burn.

In the ones where Abigail is involved, Qi has kind of a shock of the kind of life he's given up by forsaking his humanity. But Ras has given that up too, to live as a wizard. It's an interesting dynamic.

Themes of humanity and meaning of life and all that, too. This would be a fun one fr

[iliveforyouilongforyouvesuvia]

im so late with this lmao but you know whats insane to me? the notion that asra just keeps his hair colour natural while having been blessed with the best possible canvas for hair dyeing like you do not mean to tell me that that lisa frank sheephead lookinass with access to not only Magic but like even just naturally sourced dyes wouldnt pull a ramona flowers every other week n pull up with at least 3 different colours on him. anyway this led me to wonder what kinda body mods would each of the squad favour so do with this what you will

jules got a sick tat already so theres that, but julian devorak and the world of all the possible pain inducing body alteration fuckery is a subject that im sure people more qualified than me have already thoroughly explored by now hkdgkhzg i could see him with a split tongue tho😏 waIT NO OR SPLIT TONGUE GOES TO ASRA SO THEYD BE MATCHING WITH FAUST AHH BESTIEEES he so would oh my god he so totally wouldddd

lucio obviously likes it big & loud, oh my god ive just been presented by my accursed neurons with an idea of him being like those guys who pump themselves up w oil n stuff so they just look ripped nkhgxgjfd its nightmarish imma stop now. i was wondering about muriels approach to piercings, hed maybe be baffled at people willingly putting holes in themselves and think its frivolous n dumb, why are you willingly subjecting yourself to infections BUT. ON THE FLIP SIDE. what if. matching stick n poke tats with asra from when they were teens🥺🥺🥺🥺 but idk OOH nadia doing that kind of super artsy makeup thats just a painting all over your face holy shit yes shed be the best at that. theyd have little dates with asra to do each other up

hmmmmm pasha pasha pasha. i haaaave no idea. actually no she'd do piercings on a dare and get matching tats with mc on a random night out😆 but no idk

Portia strikes me as the kind of person to keep her face plain, and then have a sick tattoo on her thigh and body jewelry. But I could be wrong XD

@tetsuooooooooooo thanks for sending these, friend! They made me smile when I read them :)

[system-comforts]

god im sorry this is going to sound so whiny but im just fucking fed up with shit at this point. we're an endo system right? and like, we're in a pretty wide variety of online spaces. and so many fucking blogs (especially ones in like, fictionkin spaces, for some fucking reason) are all just. vaguely anti-endo. there'll be a blog you request from and you find out just, fucking randomly "whoops! every mod in here is a sysmed!" youll send fucking confessions to fictionkinfessions and omg there they go! promoting sysmed blogs! therell be a blog run by a singlet and theyll say "oh well im a singlet so i dont have any opinions on systems" but constantly promote anti-endo blogs. or god fucking forbid a blog is run by a singlet and they themselves are anti-endo.

and like, even then. just random fucking fandom blogs. a tmnt art blog is anti endo. this mcyt blog is anti-endo. and for fucking what. theres like, one pretty popular blog whos run by someone who is just, super fucking cool (that sounds aggressively parasocial but you get what i mean, i hope) and she, thank god, is pro-endo (i wouldve been so fucking sad if she was also a sysmed) and like. fuck, man, why cant people just. be more like her.

im so fucking sick of this lol

Hi there anon. It is definitely frustrating to find so many spaces unwelcoming, especially ones that you wouldn't expect. We've noticed as well how few blogs are welcoming to endogenic systems and systems of all sorts of origins. Here on our blog, we understand that despite our differences, we are all united by our plurality. It's frustrating that not many people can see or understand that. I think the community would be stronger if we could see what we share.

We wish you the best of luck in finding welcoming spaces, blogs, fandoms, and friends. Know we are always here for you.

[finsterkiibo]

fellow saiiboer do u think the saiibo community could manifest a saiibo zine one day ?? (Ps I love u stuff, I'm not super into Dr anymore but I definitely think about them occasionally even if saiibo was more less common I have fond memories of it!! Always happy to see someone who is very enthusiastic about them in the year 2023.)

GOD I HOPE SO. IF IT IS EVER MANIFESTED ITS GOTTA BE CALLED “DIGITAL LOVE” THERES NO OTHER WAY.. I was just thinking about this recently actually!! so thank you for the ask, anon!!! I would totally try setting one up myself w others but I. Very much am Not qualified to mod/help mod a project of that size, mentally and just in general ;; IF ANY QUALIFIED ZINE MODDERS OUT THERE WHO LIKE SAIIBO EVER DO SET ONE UP THOUGH!!! HIT ME UP!!! WILL GLADLY BE A GUEST ARTIST, DO PROMO ART N SUCH, MERCH ETC. IF IT GAINS ENOUGH INTEREST!!! though due to lack of interest in saiibo in this fandom, especially now, it’d likely be digital only/non-profit but MAN. a physical saiibo zine would be the dream… (ALSO!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! hearing that even non/past DR fans still enjoy my work literally makes me twirl in little circles thank you so much!!!!! ;; so honored to have you stick around!!! no signs of the finny saiibo train stopping anytime soon ehehe)
