i was tagged by jenn @castiel to post some before/after coloring of my gotham knights gifs! this show is honestly the hardest thing i've ever had to color with these super strong blue and yellow filters, coloring each gif takes forever!

so thank you so much jenn for tagging me in this it's always super satisfying to show the difference between the original content and the gifs we put out there!

i'm (no pressure) tagging @klinejack @girldaddean @samsrowena @chrrispine @machine-slays-dragons to post some before/after coloring, and also anyone who wants to do this!

DR. RIVER

I figured I would revisit the design of our favourite resident teacher's pet (doctor's pet?). It's my internsona, Dr. River! Though he's definitely more of an OC, at this rate. He just has a lot of my Quirks.

This was mostly made after he seemed to get quite a bit of affection in the RDL fanon channels; so, if you're curious on who exactly this pattern-loving nerd is, look below!

Dr. O. River (he refuses to clarify what the 'O' stands for) is a member of the Rhythm Doctor Initiative within Middlesea Hospital. In some routes, he is the intern - who, after the events of 1-XN, lost faith within the remote feature of the project; and began to attend to patients in person. In others, and most commonly, he is an intern supervisor - a role given to him by Dr. Edega when one particular intern came under his wing.

Speaking of Edega, River is mostly known for his core feature: he's Edega's favourite.

To put in better words: River thrives off of overwork. The more you give him, the more energy he'll have - and, in turn, the more work he'll get done. In addition, he's professional to a fault, seeming almost robotic in the way he presents himself. Observant, efficient, and, most of all, apathetic.

Or, at least, that's how he presents himself to the lead doctor.

Truth be told, River is far friendlier as he looks. An absolute dork with a literature degree; he'll take any chance to ramble about language, formatting, prose and the like. One of his biggest features as a supervisor is that he knows stress when he sees it, and will take an intern's pager (claims its for "intern surveillance") entirely to mark half of their tasks as complete ("I've already treated this lot. Just stick to these four, and I'll handle the rest"). He also hates Edega's guts - more than you think. No, more than that.

He'll drop lore at the drop of a hat ("Want a fun fact? 'M Scottish. Don't sound like it, but I've got a whole lot o' siblings in the central highlands."), crack jokes on a whim and laugh at himself ("How do you get two whales in a red mini?"), and fake Edega's footsteps entirely to scare his first and favourite intern: Dr. Desert [owned by the lovely @fufupng].

In short: Dr. River is a monotonous nerd with a heart of gold. He can predict when patients need treating, and has an obsession with pattern recognition - but, if you need some help with that overwhelming list of tasks Edega has you doing, he'll gladly do 80% of the work for you. As long as you let him talk about words.

ok, inspired by rose, ai, and nini, here's my disney princess tier list! but with a slight twist; i'm going to do two separate lists. this one will be rankings of the official disney princesses (as confirmed by disney, sold as merchandise as part of the line up) and then later i will do a "disney heroines" list of the other women who aren't included in the line up, because obviously.

i'm not ranking raya because i have yet to see raya and the last dragon (my bad my bad!) but it doesn't feel fair to give her a number without knowing what she's like, so she is not included! meg is obviously my number one of all time always, but she's not included in the line up, so she's not ranked on this one. but just know my list in my heart is always meg meg meg xo

anyway, here goes (i rambled so much i'm so sorry):

elsa/mulan : i couldn't pick between these two. elsa is near to my heart because of her connection with willemijn verkaik (dutch musical actress whom i'm obsessed with; that's my EUROPEAN WIFE, she voices her in the german and dutch dubs)/the snow queen/queer discourse, and she's a queen vs a princess which is really cool to me. but, i was ultimately a little disappointed with what frozen turned into vs what it started as (the snow queen was much older and her design fit her voices a lot more in her concept art, in my opinion). so elsa is not my all time favorite princess and i have a bit of a confusing feeling abt her. as a character she's fine, i do enjoy her a lot, but i mostly love her for her aesthetic, if that makes sense. mulan, though, in my opinion shouldn't really even be in the same list as elsa because her character is so different from the rest of them and she's more along the lines of the characters i vibe with (awkward but lovely, funny, smart, but not rly a princess), but because she's included in the line up i'm including her, and she's easily going to top my list because of it. mulan is such an obvious fave for me and so many others. she's amazing. war hero? tackling gender norms? LI SHANG? (li shang is truly so hot ngl). mulan is amazing. i get chills every time she chops her hair off to that theme, and she end scene when her father says the greatest gift in honor is having her for a daughter makes me cry every time. definitely one of my faves, also in my top five disney women easily for sure.

belle : belle was my favorite princess as a kid and i went through a belle phase for a bit. i'm a huge reader in real life too and i also never really fit in where i grew up, so she's so relatable to me for that reason. she's also just a precious character and i really love how brave she is despite everything. (also i'm not a huge fan of the beast in general, but lets all just admit he was better as a beast sorry i am of that view for sure)

ariel : i have two friends in real life who are very close to me and love ariel, and are just like her, so i adore her partly for that reason. but i also think her looks of love are just so beautiful. she's so full of love and even though she got a lot of flack from a lot of people for a while, i understand why she did what she did. it wasn't just for a man! she's a lover and a dreamer, and when she cries over eric leaving with vanessa, it breaks my heart every time. it's such a good depiction of what heartbreak really feels like. i love and appreciate ariel.

pocahontas : i know the story is problematic and i totally get it, but i'm not gonna lie, i still enjoy this movie with that aside. pocahontas as a character is underrated. colors of the wind is such an amazing song, gets me emotionally every time. and that scene where she runs to stop the war to "how loud are the drums of war?" with the hawk flying w/ her? it's so badass, it gives me chills every time. also, she chooses her duty / people over her man! that was a big deal at the time, i think. i also think she doesn't really belong in the line up (not because she doesn't deserve it but because her storyline tends more toward the heroine, not the princess archetype, but oh well).

jasmine : independent sassy queen, she's funny, smart, gorgeous. just bae. i think if meg were actual royalty she'd be a lot like jasmine. they both have the same vibe of wanting freedom, and i headcanon meg prior to the film's events as a lot like jasmine, since she is the daughter of king creon. also jasmine's face after "tell me the truth" never fails to make me laugh. she's genuinely brat.

tiana : i love tiana and even though she was absolutely adorable as a frog, i too wish we had had more time with her as an actual human. she worked so hard and is such a fighter. i'm glad she's in the line up. and her friendship with lottie is one of the best disney friendships of all time, imo.

aurora : sleeping beauty is in my top three favorite disney movies, so aurora is definitely my favorite of walt's original three. i don't think we got enough time with her as a character and she served more as a plot point (the fairies drove most of the story tbh), but she's beautiful, her songs are beautiful, and i love her.

snow white : she's actually great and gets made fun of way too much. little me did like her a lot. she's so sassy ("AWWW, did you HURT YOURSELF?" to grumpy after laughing at him akdfjdkj) and is such an interesting example of the 'feminine standard' at the time in which this movie came out. also, imo she dies at the end for real and that's so sad, i do shed a tear when she rides off on that horse!

merida : my spouse loves brave so much, and collects merida pins, so even though otherwise i probably wouldn't be super attached to merida, she reminds me of my wife, so i love her for that reason :) plus her mom is so damn cute as a bear. there aren't enough disney films about daughters and mothers with complex relationships so i do appreciate that about brave, but other than that i think merida as a character was just okay.

rapunzel : i never got extremely attached to her but she is lovely, and her story is so tragic, which gives her a definite edge (as someone with an abusive biological mother lol i can relate to a lot of that aspect of her). she's so brave too for defying gothel at the end.

anna : cute, funny, quirky. i like her and she's a great foil to elsa. she's also such a perfect little sister vibe and she sacrifices herself for elsa, honestly queen behavior. other than that though, i'm not super attached (i couldn't get attached to most of the cgi princesses, idk why)

moana : the ending to this movie gets me emotionally, and i think she's probably a better example of how disney could have more sensitively handled pocahontas had it come out later with more awareness, but other than that i have no attachment to her (but her explorer seafaring vibe is definitely cool)

cinderella : ok i know i know controversial choice to put CINDY at the end (i don't dislike any of these characters so i still love her even if she's last ranked) but i don't know, i just never got attached to her or even this movie really! i appreciate her a lot as a character, i feel for what she went through so much, and i think she's just adorable, but that's really all i feel about her.

[redstringraven]

For Cassia: 3, 8, 11! And for Nyxram: 1, 6, 11!

<:D!! AAAAA thank you so much!

Secret Ask List

-------------------- .: • CASSIA --------------------

3) what song describes your oc?

cassia is one of those ocs where the music i find for her playlist is almost all vibes and not really based on lyrics. it's the energy of the music, the way it makes you wanna move or bob or sing along. that being said: "rage" by hyper crush and "joyride" by kesha immediately make me think of her. lyrically, "i love it" by icona pop might be a good fit.

8) what hobbies does your oc have? what do they do to unwind?

cassia's major hobby is rollerskating! but she's also super into street art, and she enjoys beautifying her favorite areas of new york in a manner of silly or meaningful ways. when she's at home, she also enjoys random doodling--mostly ideas for graffiti or future street art--learning dances from her favorite music videos, and playing a variety of video games.

11) what was your inspiration for your oc?

i distinctly remember driving to my local movie trading company to see if they had any physical dvds for tmnt'03, and "girlfriend" by avril lavigne came on spotify shuffle. for whatever reason, i got the image of a pink-haired girl in rollerskates, and she wouldn't leave my head. cassia's my first tmnt oc, and i think she was always meant to be kind of like april in that she's a grounding presence in their otherwise chaotic lives. despite how high-energy and mischievous she is, she's extremely stable and does regularly go to therapy, which has made her more thoughtful and aware of others along with herself. her biggest conflicts come from being an out trans-girl in the 90s and early 2000s, but none of it is tied to her immediate family (her parents ADORE her). she is, for the most part, about as ''''average'''' a civilian in the tmnt'03 world as you can get. i dunno! i think i kind of just wanted to give them all another anchor of sorts, another safe haven. cassia's parents, oliver and esme, also become guardian figures to the turtles in a sense (especially mikey). esme loves to mother them.

-------------------- .: • NYXRAM ----------------------------

1) does your oc have a voice claim, if so who?

god yes. nyx's voice claim is shohreh aghdashloo. the moment i heard her as enforcer grayson in arcane, i pointed at the screen and muttered: "you". as someone who's very picky about these sorts of things i seriously feel like it was gift-wrapped to me. >xD shohreh also provides the voice for the dragon in damsel, which is a dumb as hell movie but i will continue to listen to it for the sake of hearing her talk.

6) if your oc is in a fantasy setting, what profession would they be in the modern day?

kind of a weird question, since 'modern day' implies that this is more a difference in time period? e-e;; i imagine she'd likely still have assassin roots, but. after the rebellion succeeds, the republic begins to rebuild, and the games are disbanded, nyxram takes it upon herself to use her family's "estate" as a sanctuary for the animals used in the games, since most of them can't be returned to their natural habitats due to injuries and/or being raised in captivity. so! i think a potential "modern day" or "human" profession for her might be owning and managing something like an old friends senior dogs sanctuary. providing housing, love, and comfort for older animals when most folks want younger pets, and ensuring that their last few years are happy and safe. she's taken so much life, so... it feels like giving back, in a way.

11) what was your inspiration for your oc?

@/plantdonut doesn't live with me (alas), but if she did, i would have turned to her during our '03 rewatch a few years ago and asked, bluntly, "why do all the triceratons gotta be dudes? where're my giant, amazon warrior dinosaurs?". and within a few days, i was practicing my hand at drawing triceratons, so i could make it so. my two major points of inspiration for nyx come from cassandra cain (2nd batgirl, pre-new52) and john wick. cassandra for being... basically born and bred to be the perfect assassin, only to have 'too much' compassion and love and guilt and go hero instead, and john wick for being a 'baba yaga' to anyone who knows his name. not the boogeyman, but the one you send to kill the boogeyman. the idea of a triceraton assassin was very cool to me, given that they're often a straight-forward, loud, and blunt force to face with little concern for being subtle. it also draws an interesting connection to her and the turtles; at some point nyx comments that despite their practice being tied to assassins such as herself, any blood on their hands comes from self-defense. in some ways, she envies them. but in many more, she doesn't. she's the sole survivor of her clutch, and the only one of her siblings to 'earn' a name. she was, in a way, a political move--a gift/tool offered to the prime leader to ensure that her parents had a connection to power and could continue their own work with protection from punishment. ...they just didn't expect for her to want something else. since the triceratons seem to have a handful of 'nods' and aesthetics pointing toward the roman empire, i named nyxram after the greek goddess 'nyx', the personification and substance of night. i also specifically use greek spelling with her, whereas her parents will have roman spelling of their names to further emphasize her 'otherness' from triceraton society as a whole.

Tom Kitt: The Trunk Songs | 54 Below | September 8, 2024

[stormikins]

For the WIP game I would love a WINDOW (see what I did there) into 09 Defenestration.

From this Wip Game thank you!!! :)

I believe you already know about it but its what I am writing for day 09 for Whumptober '24. As the title suggests, Shepard goes through a window but don't worry, Nihlus gives her some tension filled injury treatment afterwards ;)

—

Nihlus has a thing about being the one to treat her injuries. Yes, half the time Shepard does it as she needs to know how to. According to him though, he’s not going to shirk his duty to her as she’s his responsibility. At first it was annoying, then it was sweet, and then it swung right back around to annoying because it was just another way for her to get bothered. It’s another way for Shepard's mind and body to want him. A dangerous thing that is. He’s her mentor, her friend, partner. Nihlus became someone she doesn’t want to lose so Shepard’ll never cross that line. He’s also someone she can’t say no to, so when he pats a stool for her to sit on, she does so.

Nihlus is sitting as well, scooting in close enough that one of his legs threads between hers. His face gets focused and slightly scrunched as he raises the tweezers to her face. It’s one of her favorite expressions of his, not just because it reminds her of a kitten. Anderson might think turians are a cross between birds and dinosaurs, but the way they scrunch their faces are purely cat like. Not to mention the damn purring.
