🐬🐙 a silent admiration,
A mini comic that I illustrated for Jeiazu June, featuring middle school Jade and Azul!
Jade loves Azul's tenacity. Azul's always accomplishes anything he sets his mind upon; it's what makes him fascinating. To stay at the side of someone with such resolve, surely there isn't anything in the world that they couldn't conquer together.

of all the things ash gets compared to (lynxes, beasts, demons, wives), colonel fox is the only one to call him a leopard, the thing ash views himself as, at least within the context of the snows of kilimanjaro visual. also note that eiji is the only one to respond directly to that visual, insisting that a) humans have wisdom leopards don't (don't die on me for nothing) and b) ash is not a leopard, anyway (seriously ash don't die on me for nothing)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
to fox and to ash, ash is someone whose life of violence (+ inability to leave it, stubbornness, whatever he's searching for that keeps him going down this path, etc) will inevitably lead to his death. eiji's an optimist (perhaps more accurately, he believes in ash) and tries to steer ash from this, but he's more resigned to it than he's willing to tell eiji. and the fact that fox understands that about ash immediately is just. ough. and of course in the end, ash is the one who seals his own fate. it wasn't inevitable, to eiji, to the audience, maybe to the world. but it was inevitable to ash, and he finally surrendered to it. he couldn't believe in his ability to escape like eiji could (or, imo for a slew of reasons i'm not getting into, he chose to die in a comfortable place and time, surrounded by hope and love. before things got bad again. etc)
edit: i forgot to say this in the original post but part of the reason why foxx feels like a final boss is because of that immediate understanding, that psychological violation. and because it lets him reinforce ash's hopelessness that leads to his final decision

going through some old left-for-dead projects and just found this one where I was like. INTENT on dissecting jeff's brain on the operating table (i.e. google docs) but only from todd's weird skewed pov
Tumblr media
[professor voice] it's about brothers as eternal combatants and it's about being so convinced of your own goodness you excuse your shitty actions. it's also about comparing yourself to a dog because you feel less fully formed than your brother. lol.
Tumblr media
#“so-and-so is an irredeemable character with no depth” jokes are funny sure but unfortunately i'm unable to not take things seriously#anyway: i remember people being like [about hymnal] this is crazy! this fraternal dynamic is so fucked up! and being kind of non-plussed#because the dynamic i wrote into the fair folk wip [this one] was like fifty thousand times more. argh. bites#THIS WASN'T EVEN SCRATCHING THE SURFACE#also i've always been an advocate of writing cruel characters with sympathy because the best feeling as a reader is when#you're reading and start nodding along with a particular guy and have to take a step back and recoil at how receptive you were to them#when the character is kind and jolly and cares but he's still letting the abuse happen under his nose :eyes:#anyway this ALSO isn't an accurate jeff portrait because todd's pov is weird and jaded and sardonic at the beginning of the story#and also he's like three seconds away from exploding. lol#hm. i never explained it to myself fully [probably why i never finished this] but i think the issue was that#todd is Too understanding and he's perceptive enough to see everyone's motivations but that makes it worse because now he's too#not forgiving. but he can excuse people's actions very easily#and thus when people actually do shitty things and it makes him mad he can't really justify being mad to himself - but he still is#and this makes him sooooo volatile. and becomes a problem later on in the wip when he's trying to work on cameron#because understanding isn't the ending point you have to do the action sometimes! lol!#goddamn. i miss writing this au.#dead poets society#tristan writes#dps#dps fic#todd anderson#jeff anderson#SORRY THIS IS VERY LONG. I JUST REDISCOVERED THIS AND IT BROUGHT A LOT OF MEMORIES BACK.

oc brainstorming, too.
Tumblr media
weak to the enemies to lovers trope, except they're both generally good guys, if not a little morally grey. the worst they really do is get on each others nerves. and boy do they get on each others fucking nerves....
(oc (drafted) lore below and in the tags)
two sides of the same coin.
Boss Ain't Gotta Know vs Mr. By the Books.
Books is based on a mix Leon Kennedy, Zane Flynt (in style choices/occupation), and Marcus Fenix. Real hardass, bottles his emotions hardcore, generally a sweet guy and empathetic. Struggles to show that, though. maybe he's that "abused dog -> learns to trust again" trope. Guy's a golden retriever who hates hugs.
Jade Smartass is based (semi) on Duncan (total drama) and (HIGHLY) on Damon Baird. He's a fucking asshole who definitely goes a little too far, but has good intentions. He doesn't get social cues nor the appropriate time to make that morbid joke-. He hates the situation, he hates dealing with others, and he tries to make the most of it. Maybe he's the type to try to scare people off because he's just afraid of getting hurt...
Mostly based on the Marcus/Baird enemies to *brothers* but these two are just very much in love with each other in the gay way. (I watched a video on those two and how their relationship grew over time. Hating each other to hugging each other once they reunited... <3) ("like two assholes on their first date" - dom santiago)

I find it really hard to get back into comics these days, DC specifically. I've tried, but there doesn't seem to be any internal consistency with stories and characters. It all seems to operate on a specific writer's whim to determine what in a character's history is canon/relevant at any given time, and character development or important events may be dropped without a word. Characters go through so many different writers that they may end up completely different than they were 5 years ago, or become flanderized version of themselves. Their histories might get erased, some parts of their histories might randomly come back, relationships they have with other characters might be forgotten about, etc.
DC seems to want to operate on the idea of "everything is canon", but that doesn't… really work, when there are direct contradictions to what's come before—things that couldn't be canon if other things are. And honestly, I don't enjoy that. I don't like the idea of all these stories happening in a vacuum, aand having to decide for myself what stories have or have not happened for each specific character I like (at least in official media, because that's what fan fic is for). I will always prefer fully developed narratives, and characters who are allowed to grow and evolve, and maintain internal consistency to their stories. I like beginnings, middles, and ends, not the constant state of stagnation these characters always seem to be in, because god forbid the status quo ever change.
As an example, my favorite DC character is/was Rose Wilson—but specifically from before Flashpoint and the New 52. Nowadays, even after Rebirth, she's just a different character to me. Most of what I loved about her has been written out or forgotten about, and I have tried to enjoy her for what she is now, but I haven't been as engaged by her stories or how she's been written. In my own opinion, most of what made her so compelling for me is gone, and with the exception of a couple standout moments here and there, she's been mostly a nerfed caricature of herself. Her backstory has been changed, her ethnicity was changed (from Khmer to Hmong), her dynamic with her family has changed, she no longer has the same relationships with so many characters, and even if you want to say "everything in her past and all her stories still happened", there are direct contradictions now that prevent that from making sense.
I have had to come to accept that, while I find the present-day Rose "okay"—not great, not bad, just okay—the character I fell in love with and who became my favorite of all time ended in 2011 when DC decided to reboot things. And that makes me a little sad.
This is, of course, only my own opinion. I will never knock on others for enjoying these comics or these characters how they are, and if you do I'm happy for you! I wish I could too, but unfortunately it's just not for me anymore. I have since taken solace in fan works and my own writing, where I can get that kind of concrete development and narrative consistency, and that's okay with me.

I'm so disappointed I won't be able to immediately tune in on the twst update like usual 😭 I'm pretty sure this is the first time I won't be watching it right after it's up, and not only that, but my early morning obligation preventing me from enjoying the update is going to last FIVE hours 😭😭😭
#I'm going to get spoiled so hard tomorrow :')#hopefully nothing game changing comes with the update#I'm pretty sure there won't be anything crazy until the 2nd half#but there could be some sneak peak at the end of this update that will be further expanded next time and I am in DANGER#of getting majorly spoiled on whatever it is. maybe. if they do something like that lol#hopefully you know what I mean I think I am rambling nonsense but like. you know. how they showed gen vanrouges sprite#at the end of that one update and then next time we had the full war experience#it still sucked a little that I got spoiled on gen vanrouges sprite before getting to the end even if that wasn't the Full War Experience ;#but oh well#aghhhhh okay goodbye#actually pause my goodbye I have more words to ramble#I AM really excited for the savanaclaw update I think that's a nice thing about doing these deep psych dives of each dorm#it is fucking so bad with the pacing BUT if you just ignore the pacing issue then it's really nice how every character gets a chance#to be expanded on a LOT right now#like rook's dream?? absolute banger of a dream. It's so sweet that his deepest desire at heart is just to be a fanboy#and for his oshis to get along. Even if it means not being with Vil :')#he wants everyone to be at their most beautiful (healthy and loving and open-minded in their own unique way)#even if that means he himself ends up excluded from the picture!!!!#and it's so nice that we get that Rook Pack Expansion with these dreams#and I liked Jade's dream even if it was just for extremely silly reasons. I like that we now know his ass is not paying attention#to his loved ones LOL he is the number one floyd and azul mischaracterizer on ao3 I love that we know this now#Jamil and Kalim getting into a scrap fight was so desperately needed for their character arcs and I am so happy we got it#and with this in mind. I think no other dorm needs more character expansions and character arc movement for me to enjoy them more#than the savanaclaw boys. I'm just nooottt that into them as is 😔#but I WANT to like them and I am really hoping this update throws me something awesome that changes my view of them forever#and isn't just another 2 epel dreams with a vil dream at the end#(not that I didn't enjoy vil or epel's dreams and elements from them they just didn't add as much to their characters as I wanted ;;)#ok goodbye for real now bye

the dashboard osmosis has zapped your blorbos into my subconscious bc despite not having read a word of svsss last night I dreamed about a musical adaptation of it. thought you should know. (the dream musical kind of slapped btw)
OH MY GOD??? that sounds incredible holy shit now all I can think about is which scenes would make good songs. this is amazing omg I'm so glad my dashboard osmosis powers were strong enough to do this to you
#asks#scribefindegil#if you remember any details from the dream i would LOVE to hear them#i wanna know how this appeared in your dream lol#svsss is such a neglected stepchild when it comes to adaptations. all we have is an abandoned and terrible looking animated version#but A MUSICAL HOWEVER. here's how scum villain can still win#im not a musicals expert but im thinking about how this would be...#if it's capturing all three books then i think the most natural intermission point would be the self detonation scene#i've seen an animatic of that scene set to a cover of please please please that sounded like it was out of a musical#and that's kind of what i'm imagining. really dramatic really emotional. potentially a really stark shift from other songs involving sqq#oooh what if his songs tend to sound a little more modern than other characters'#or they have a particular motif that represents the system.... and then he hears that same motif from sqh and he's like HEY. WAIT A MINUTE.#anyway. back to self detonation. i think that would be an excellent place to end act one#bc the curtains lowering over binghe cradling his body would be SO good#and then you go to intermission and come back to absolutely ridiculous shenanigans and six balls#the climax of the story/love confession would probably really intense at first and then suddenly go soft when sqq reveals the jade guanyin#ouuughghgh thinking about teen binghe having an ''i want'' song as the protagonist#and then getting a fucked up reprise of it later on#isn't there an equivalent of ''i want'' songs for villains. i can't remember what it's called. but i think sqq should have that#just for funsies.#scribe you have given me SUCH brainworms this is excellent

Do you have any thoughts on the people saying that Marc is interfering with the championship. Like what do they want he’s doing his job. Also where has this thing come from where people are saying it’s an unspoken rule to not get involved in the championship fight like if you can’t beat someone without team orders then idk maybe you shouldn’t have the title. Cause when Ducati tried team orders at 2017 Valencia all the journalists where like this is a bad look for our sport we don’t do team orders. But know because Marc isn’t backing off he’s interfering and I think that’s such a stupid take to have because by that logic every single person entering a race is interfering because any of them could pass Jorge or Pecco in fact a lot of the academy riders tried to at Philip island but I haven’t seen anything about them interfering.
idk man, this isn't a serious argument being had by serious people. obviously marc isn't interfering with the title fight. there will be fans who genuinely believe this, but the journalists asking about it are generally just fishing for some drama to write about. which, like, to some extent I get, but I sort of feel like maybe we could invent some new drama unrelated to the same old stuff. as a treat. it's been long enough for someone to come up with something fun... this is just dumb. sometimes discourse is so stupid that it's simply not worth engaging with. but, sure, lemme have a crack at it
I will say 'not getting involved in a title fight' is something different from 'team orders'. sometimes riders are a little more... restrained in racing title contenders in the latter stage of the season, which often isn't as much about like. respect for the title contenders or anything as it is self-preservation instinct - as we've already seen this season, tipping off a title contender can just be a lot of bother. the archetypal example of this is obviously estoril 2006, which was a horrendous experience for dani and very nearly made him some lifelong enemies... and even though hayden won the title, there were still plenty of american fans who continued to vocally despise him years and years later. also, the vibes in honda for the next two seasons were infamously not great, which wasn't primarily about estoril 2006 but it was not not about that either. just makes things awkward! and when it comes down to it, nobody wants something like this to be the first line of their legacy... some riders are warier of this than others - with some you feel like (if anything) they're even more aggressive because they know the other party has more to lose lol. that's really a risk/reward decision each rider has to make for themselves. I've already made my feelings clear about how much fans scrutinise every word by every rider and look for the worst faith interpretation. it makes the sport worse and it's also kinda annoying. basically my take on sports is that athletes should have insane opinions but fans need to not be so irritating about them that the athletes stop voicing those opinions. like I just sort of think fans suck idk
and on the team orders thing - there were definitely people, including journalists, who thought it was sensible in 2017!! I mean mostly I think the journalists were on the same page as I was back then, aka 'massively enjoying how messy it got'. but if anything, as I remember it there were also people who felt ducati should've been firmer with jorge! they looked like idiots because it didn't WORK, not necessarily because they tried it. I mean,,, look, it was a controversial thing, but there certainly wasn't a consensus anti-team orders stance within the commentariat. likewise, the commentariat is decidedly NOT pro team orders in 2024 - as a whole they were probably more pro the concept in 2017 because it at least theoretically made sense in that situation. a lot of discourse that goes 'why does everybody hate x when they loved y' doesn't account for how it's often not the same people holding those two opinions. being virulently anti-team orders in 2017 but pro in 2024 is... well. I mean I'm sure a person exists who simultaneously holds those opinions, but it's not exactly a majority take. it's not even a sensibly partisan anti-marquez take, because otherwise you would've been pro-ducati team orders in 2017 to try and deny him the title
(you can tell that team orders just won't ever meaningfully be a thing in motogp by how, in 2017, you might have thought both jorge and valentino would be motivated to stop marc's title count from ticking up... but they were both spectacularly disinclined to actually do much to prevent it. jorge rather infamously so, but shout out to valentino for mathematically eliminating any remaining hope for his teammate vinales to be champion by finishing in pee two behind marc and ahead of vinales by .027s at phillip island. what a real one)
since 2017, there haven't really been any team orders (which made the diggia qatar thing last year so funny of course). pecco's never publicly asked for them - yeah, he got snippy about bastianini in that one clip from 2022... but again, see above, call me crazy but I think it's okay and indeed Good for athletes to occasionally get snippy about their competitors. nobody serious has asked for team orders this year, it's just not been a thing. I suppose ducati might have a chat with bastianini before the last couple of races, but generally this stuff doesn't go beyond 'please don't knock your teammate off', which oddly enough is something teams like to avoid even outside of title battles. also don't think it's a clear cut thing to say the academy riders have raced pecco all that much more kindly than they would anyone else - at the very least they've repeatedly held him up in the last few races. and if fans feel like the academy riders have just been ushering pecco through... well, everyone's entitled to their opinions. I suppose. you tell your occipital lobe what's what! ends up just being a bunch of different fanbases being conspiratorial in each other's directions, and it's not even the riders themselves saying weird shit so it's just fucking boring. but also... who cares. it's some random fans doing discourse and then some journalists asking about it to feebly try to find some actual drama to write about, but it's not going to materially change how anyone races or how anyone thinks about any of the riders involved. it's the definition of a non-issue. nobody's opinion on marc marquez was changed at the 2024 race at phillip island. he's rich and famous and has a gp25 next year, he'll be fine I reckon
and, y'know, obviously ducati would prefer for bagnaia to retain the title, though it's now too late to meaningfully interfere. that being said, if team orders get you a title, then to me this is just part of the game in motorsports and doesn't make said title any less deserved. it's basically part of the team package, right - like the bike or the mechanics or the guys crunching your data, maybe you have a teammate who can provide meaningful assistance or (as is far more likely) you don't. but at the end of the day, team orders is one of those things that gets discussed exponentially more than their actual impact on title fights ever seems to be. they just don't even really work in motogp, like ultimately even 2017 was much ado about nothing - fun in the moment, but the only way jorge could've won dovi that title was by catalunya 2019'ing the field. at least that one was less about 'should there be team orders' (boring, idc) and more about 'will the teammate LISTEN to team orders' (camp, funny, allows you to show off your knowledge about ten year old beef). and if they actually listen and it makes a difference, great - you do what you can do win... I've never understood the hand wringing about this. if you want to get rid of outside influence, scrap the bikes and just have them run around the circuit a few times
