#the only light is the lamp

i see a lot of neurodivergent people talk about how they can't handle bright white overhead lighting at home, so their preference is to have warm/yellow bulbs in lamps as the main source of household lighting, often with colouful neon lights/fairylights/candles as other secondary lighting sources. I feel like this is actually more common than we think but maybe there are some insane people who love or at least are indifferent to bright white overhead lighting. so poll time.
if you say bright white overhead lighting is your main lighting preference please tell me why
#polls#tumblr polls#i'm overhead lighting off and lamps on#i'll only ever use overhead lighting in yellow light if i need to do something that requires good vision like a board game or scrapbooking#whomst has already clicked white lighting and not told me why

#harry du bois#Disco elysium#Harrys apartment after a good clean. Still cluttered but not nasty#Lets be real i know yall want your shared bed stories but harry does not own a bed. He has an old man recliner bc he lives at work#Hes on the top floor and its a tall but narrow apartment and its gets hot in the summer#Tends to be dark because of the tiny windows and no ceiling lights. Lamps only. Which makes harry sad in the evening

I. Love. This.
I love the tender touch that Syaoran uses.
I love that it’s so gentle.
I love that it’s so warm.
I love that it’s such a direct moment of physical closeness - which is rare enough in itself, but it gets to be between these two who need this sentiment established so badly.
I love that Syaoran is affirming his unconditional love.
I love that Syaoran is saying that he was precious to him in BOTH senses.
I love that neither way he loves him cancels out or affects the other.
I love that this is the first time they get to talk about this big thing hanging over them. Lava Lamp only just learned about it at all. They never really talked during the clone years. And the very first thing Syaoran establishes when they DO get to talk about it all is that he loves him.
I love that Lava Lamp GETS this moment.
I love that THIS is his big reunion with his parents.
I love that you can see how much it affects him even just from his eyes alone.
And I love that they use TOUCH to communicate this, since Lava Lamp is just… so touch starved. He spent seven years alone in a giant tube and everything after that was endlessly complicated, but he gets THIS to re-establish that love all over again.
I love that he went into his Flashback arc expecting Fai and Kurogane to abandon him - he was expecting to be alone, because he always has been, all the way through this all. Sometimes physically, sometimes emotionally, and sometimes because he was forced to keep secrets from everyone around him.
I love that this is his biggest failure reversing itself - he traded away the ability to ever see his parents again in order to save Not!Sakura, which he failed at! BUT HERE THEY ARE, FORCING THEMSELVES BACK TO HIM.
I love that he ISN'T ALONE ANYMORE, and might never be again!
I just love it.
#I HAVE FEELINGS ABOUT A PAGE#How out of the ordinary!#Congratulations Syaoran you nailed it#Liveblogging the Reservoir Chronicle#Tsubasa#Vol 226#Syaoran#Lava Lamp Guy#I also love that Lava Lamp’s eyes look slightly different colours#Just from the lighting#As a little nod to the whole eye thing that used to mark them as different#But now the roles have been switched#And then switched back again#Since they’re BOTH the originator now - in a way#But only one of them is the other one’s son#And I LOVE how that connection shines through

Bruce and Cass conversations are just Autism to Autism communication
One time they're going over a case together in the batcave with Dick and they keep getting more and more distressed despite the case being relatively straightforward until Dick with his years of Bruce deduction recognises the signs of electricity in the walls being too loud and goes to fix it. They both immediately relax and he's like "... You guys could have just SAID there was a high pitched sound bothering you." to which he receives matching looks of Bat:

He gives up, grumbling about how he should have just stayed in Bludhaven.
#dc#cassandra cain#batfam#dc rambles#bruce wayne#Dick Grayson#Asks#Me for years randomly hearing electricity when the lights got switched on and being like hm#I'm sure everyone else can hear that too and they're just not bothered by it#Turns out not everyone could! My mother thought I had tinnitus until I explained how it only happened#When the lights got switched on. It wasn't random ringing it was literally just the sound of electric lamps

joyous little page trying my darnest to understand what i want Miraris to look like...
i've always been fascinated with pre-colonial philippines and just general SEA clothing. this page became more of a study on that instead of concrete designs lawl (tho this will def help in how i design them)
i think i'll keep to this... pampered almost royalty esque design considering their origin (unnamed)
#lem draws#ignore just how shitty the photo is#its 2am and i only have lamp light to rely on#touchstarved mc#citrusbuds ocs

more lighting reference screenshots: moonlight edition!
fun fact: for a moment I thought he looked like he had light dimples but then I checked in the mirror and found out that faces just Do That under certain lighting. so thank you P for the anatomy lesson
#this might be my last lighting reference post#unless i get requests or something i guess#there's only so many screenshots of the same guy you can take under different lamps until they all start looking the same#i still find the way light hits his face very aesthetically pleasing#because he's so pretty......#p lies of p#lies of p#lies of p screenshots#art reference

Yo wait, has anyone made skyrim dca? As dwemer automations? Hello? That idea has been bouncing around my head for a while... that would be so fun
Gonna try my hand at it actually
They are the fucking DCA Dwemer City Atendant
#like imagine it#you find them in a dwemer ruin full of falmer. they are a city guard#to simulate a day and night cycle the city had not only lights that dimmed in the night time but also enviroments that changed#like the lamps had a sun motive in the say and changes to a moon and stars motive in the night#and so did the guards. they are sun themed in the day cicle and moon themed in the night#most guards have been disabled by the falmer but one is holding on in the inner part of the city.#they keep the lights on there so the light sensetive falmer dont get there#moon has kinda been stuck in attack mode because as soon as its dark the falmer come in#the dragonborn has a lil quest following them throughout the city as the keep changing between sun and moon in the different parts#depending on if the light are on or off#you help them putting all the lights on#and help them fixing moons problem of being stuck in attack mode#they start following you#and boom dca follower

*A humanoid squid like entity broke all the lights in the rooms of Sebastian's shop. He was able to get a slight glimpse of the entity before it headed back into the darkness. It had 2 big red glowing eyes, jet black skin, brown hair, and 8 tendrils. 2 longer ones came out of its neck, and the rest were coming out of its lower back. It blended seamlessly with its dark environment*
Keeps the damn lights off...
- @theblacksitesjigsaw
Uh, dumbass, I have my esca, and you didn't break shit. There's no working lights in here, I only use mine..
#sebastian asks#sebastian solace#sebastian being silly#blacksite jigsaw#//true actually. the only light in sebastians shop is his angler lamp//
