EAT UP, STAYS

I had some fun doing faux double-exposure editing with Han Jisung's Hold My Hand MV, and made them into phone and computer wallpapers. I made a lot of these, including some Youth MV ones. It's been a joy getting into more graphic design kind of stuff, and you bet your bottom dollar I'm making some of these as mini prints for concert freebies. Catch me in Seattle giving these and other neat prints out.

Lae'zel is like a play on the "I'm not other girls" thing, except she's trying SO hard to be like other Gith girls. She's trying to steel her heart and be a perfect soldier in the collective army serving beneath Vlaakith. No will of her own. Just blind servitude alongside the other Gith who are also denying their own individualism.

Rather than gutting the companions right then and there - as any other Githyanki would do - she joins them AND promises them a cure. A cure that was meant to be ONLY for Githyanki warriors. And she doesn't know about the lies or the fact that he cure is a death sentence, but she still extends that olive branch to the group. She'll speak up when she's grouchy and try to project a hard exterior, but she's SO secretly soft.

When you approach Rosymorn, she'll stay on that part of the map if you try to leave. Upon returning, you can make her admit she missed you.

You can make the strong Gith who was raised to pillage, kill, and conquer admit that she missed the player character.

Lae'zel isn't like other Gith Girls.

Her act two scene is trying to progress the romance as though it were between two Gith raised within that culture. It's a fight to prove your worth through your battle prowess, which makes only the best *warriors* worthy of companionship. However, it becomes clear that isn't want Lae'zel wants. If the player loses, and Bae'zel beats the fuck out of them, she becomes distraught because she doesn't WANT to fight her romantic partner.

She wants to mutually protect one another. She wants companionship with her partner. She wants to enjoy the sunrise with them, feel the tickle of the night breeze, see the Tears of Selune chase after the moon across the night sky, she wants to live and she wants to share those experiences with her love. She doesn't WANT to be the stone cold Gith that she was raised to be.

Lae'zel wasn't given any role to do with the eggs, but once the egg is in the party's possession, she's instantly drawn to it. When Xan hatches, she gives him a name to represent that he'll be raised to be free to be himself. He'll have the freedom to choose his own path, whatever that maybe. Xan DOESN'T have to be like the other Gith. He could be a scholar, an artist, a warrior, anything he wishes to be. It's his life and Lae'zel is just happy to see her little Xan be raised with the freedom she didn't realize she craved until she arrived on that silly little planet.

Lae'zel isn't like other Gith girls because no two people are the same, even if raised in the same circumstances and culture. Everyone is an individual, even when they serve a collective or are fighting alongside Allies with the same main goal.

Lae'zel isn't just a nameless, faceless soldier. She isn't interchangeable with other Gith. She isn't like the other Gith girlies.

Something I think perfectly encapsulates the early days of Cyberpunk 2077's launch so well was at one point, once you completed the bender, the game would unceremoniously drop a copy of Johnny's holo-arm in your inventory without telling you. It was equipable, meaning you could put it on whenever you wanted (but I don't believe you could unequip it without trashing it) and it would show up in the game whenever you used your weapon or were in a cutscene. So it was almost like the game was giving you the option to make Johnny's silver arm a permanent feature of your V, implying that it was a part of the Relic's progression, and that you could use it for story immersion or lore purposes, or even just as a cool feature to have in your inventory if you wanted it for the aesthetic

And then CDPR came forward, said "actually this was 100% a bug you're not supposed to get this", patched it out, and we never got it back.

I just wanted to do something that was fully colored and stuff because I haven't done that much in a while - not sure if I prefer this with or without the texturing, so here's both versions!

likes and reblogs appreciated ^^

also did a sketch, but uh. it looks a lot less impressive now that I have finished versions :P

Tezcatlipōca shenanigans

Nahua gods are really something because things work in a Full Metal Alchemist way.

Offering = Your petition granted

They can do things without an offering, but y'know, it's kind of rude. So if you give an offering to ask for something (not all offerings or blessings are transactional) and the teōtl does not deliver your request, you can insult them, curse them and tell them "wtf dude, I gave you the best feather, get to WORK lazy ass".

But I didn't like to do it. It felt disrespectful, I'm used to be very uh, demure heheheh.

However Tezcatlipoca works in funny ways, uncomfortable ones. He didn't do SHIT until I cursed at him, HE WANTED ME to tell him "brother q pedo, ya te di tu ofrenda, ponte a chingarle, no mames tengo q tragaaaaar".

And he delivered ONE HOUR after I complained. Moral of the story? He wanted me to be disruptive and get a grip.

Message for the world? Demand what you deserve, need and have worked for. Demand what is fair.

Got my brother interested in reading ORV by telling him there's a 10 year old boy that can control a giant praying mantis and who's first solution to everything is murder

something about the scene in the people's joker where she's able to go back and recall one truly happy memory with her mother vs. i saw the tv glow where maddy basically tells owen that his happy memories are just a facade to keep him from realizing what he could be/could have been.
