rehash of my SAYER AI construct designs from a couple years back
iamsayer.com
#SAYER#SAYER podcast#robot#sayer ai#speaker ai#future ai#ocean ai#listen to this podcast. come for the AIs' voices and the fucked up experiments and stay for the excellent plot#(recommend listening to episode 6 (A Dreamless Sleep) to try it out since it's standalone)#OCEAN wasn't in the original lineup. its design is just SAYER's internal skeleton (like. its shackles have been removed or whatever)

#- rubbing my hands together - welcome to the tags#Obviously the game was prioritizing Gale in this interaction bc it's his story and that's who Larian wrote#BUT NOT ME BAYBEEEE THIS IS CROISSANT'S TIME TO SHINE and be an excellent foil to his character#I DUNNO I just really liked playing a character who also has a buckwild amount of insecurities about this relationship -#- but in a very different flavor. I've loved keeping that in mind as the romance plot plays out.#As much as I appreciate the constant validation you give Gale from in-game dialogue bc he needs that-#-I also like holding up Croissant like a mirror to get him out of his own head.#AGAIN THIS CHARACTER WAS WRITTEN JUST FOR ME NGJKFLNDKH I love this game#Anyway now we get to grapple with Gale talking to Mystra :''''''')#bg3#baldur's gate 3#bg3 spoilers#act III spoilers#gale romance spoilers#croissant adventures#tav#gale#gale dekarios#gale x tav#breadweave#comics#I think this 6-pager was the first time I felt like I had a handle on drawing Gale btw that man is an artistic enigma#ADDITIONAL EDIT: thank you so much for your responses on part 1 you are all wonderful folks - esp the ones mad that I made this 2 parts LOL

Consider: depressed necromancers forced to go on mental health walks by their creations
"Get up, go outside."
It was like being ordered around by a chill running down his spine. He gave a blind, swatting wave into the space around him. "Piss off."
"Ha! You sure must be regretting studying resurrections instead of banishments, hm?" the ghostly voice echoed at the edge of his hearing. "I have aaall the time in the world."
It was absolutely killing him that turning off his hearing aids didn't work against ghosts. He opened his eyes, staring blankly up at the by now familiar shape floating above him. The look in the spectral eyes was infuriatingly soft.
"Come on. One little walk. And I won't give you any grief about your meal choices tonight."
"It's still light out," he gritted, too tired to even raise his voice. "And you can't make me."
The shining eyes narrowed. "Not yet I can't, but I'll learn. And I bet I'll be able to start chucking bottles of vitamin D at your head long before I'm strong enough to move your sorry ass."
"I did you a favour, you wanted this. And this is the thanks I get?"
Somehow the chill turned warm for a second while the ghost smiled with his whole face. "Yeah. I'm paying it forward."
He pulled the couch pillow over his head. "Go haunt somewhere else."
"Or, you could leave and go for a-"
"Fine, I'll go for a damn walk."
The ghostly laughter followed him all the way to the door and for a second it felt like the grey sludge gave way—
He paused with his hand on the key in the lock. "...are you coming or what?"
#the cartonizer#this is probably not exactly what you had in mind but my sister has been telling me the entire plot of dead boy detectives#so I have ghosts on the brain#and I think resurrecting someone in ghost form is still a necromancer's jurisdiction!#thank you for the excellent thought to consider <3#laura drabbles#ghost#spectre#haunting#urban fantasy#necromancy

rewatching season 1 of earthspark and feeling so sad oml , ,,, season 2 has been so completely watered down,, im heartbroken about all the incredible stuff that was set up and now just scrapped,,,,, the whole s1 conflict about humans resenting cybertronians for the war, the autobots' guilt, megatrons relationship to everyone,, the kids actually being intelligent individuals,, the decepticons having real personalities and motives, agent schloder, the fallout of ghost and mandroid, tarantulas? the holoform tech???? the impact of the mind control chips??? hello?? frenzy?? fluffy ears?? starscream reluctantly soft for the kids??? bumblebee being an important mentor figure + family member for the maltos hello????? soundwave and shockwaves personal betrayal from megatron, addressing the original revolution that started the war?? the massive, very clear, explicit emphasis on autobots and decepticons not being strictly good vs bad???? the ideas they presented everywhere about second chances, working to understand other people, learning to collaborate for the greater good???? any consequences from season 1 at all?????
everything earthspark did in s1 was so meaningful and clearly deeply loved in every step of its creation and then seeing how bland s2 has been,,,,,,
#the quality of season 1 was so so excellent all the way through and now FOR WHAT#loose ends and plotholes and unfaithful characterization weaker humour too much filler content without progressing the plot...#head in my hands if they mess up prowl im going to cry actually#HASBRO GET IT TOGETHER EARTHSPARK IS THE BEST TF SHOW IN YEARS BUT NOW WHATS EVEN THE POINT#tfe spoilers#earthspark spoilers#sort of

It's always funny to me when in an lu fic the chain is offered bananas and don't accept them. Like, you're offering these high energy adventures free food?? Fruit they'll have never even heard of before??? A ridiculously expensive imported good at best?? AND it boosts your attack?
Not ONE of these idiots would ever turn down something new and interesting to eat at least once. They'd be all over those bananas and immediately get dubbed yiga and I'm honestly surprised no one has used it in a fic yet 🤭
#I know it's for plot reasons but it really shows the author's hand lol. 'just a quick bit of standard suspicion now move along we have more#Interesting things to do'#Again I get it it's always funny to see them fail the vibe check and get plied with a random fruit#There could be a fake out where they ask for the bananas and while everyone's panicking they go 'I've never had one before I'd love to try'#Or someone brings up kohga and they're like who???#But you could make a whole fic out of the chain getting mistaken for yiga and getting chased out of everywhere that's heard the news#And them travelling around trying to clear their name when they don't even know what happened.#Heck maybe they figure it out when the yiga mistake then in disguise too XD!#Also featuring as many Wild assassination attempts as you want. Like he's hunting them down but he travels faster than news#Spreads so he's rarely on time and can't set traps#And the 8 of them keep fending him off but he's really got the upper hand and DEEPLY unhappy#I'm just saying it'd make for some EXCELLENT scenes and I know y'all in the LU fandom like your misunderstandings#The chain strolling along in faron like yum these are delicious we gotta stock up while we're here#And in the tree above them wilds eye's twitching#loz#legend of zelda#linked universe#lu wild#lu chain#loz fic#fic ideas#fic prompt#loz link#loz lu#yiga clan

Musical Touken Ranbu: Hanakage Yureru Tomizu (The Shadows of Flowers Swaying In The Whetwater) english subs
About a month later than I'd have liked, but here they are! Even if its writing is a bit more messy than usual, its core is very solid. Of course, Chougi's live song more than got away with me (it's got Japanese Sign Language), so if you could, please watch it gently.
I dedicate this to the friends of mine who love Ichigo Hitofuri. May you be unapologetically yourself, right the way you are.
Keep in mind that this is only the subtitle file, timed and tled to the DMM senshuuraku and BD/DVD. The archive version will have a talk at the start, so the starting times of the subs will have to be delayed accordingly.
You can find the subtitles and my TL document here!
#touken ranbu#toumyu#hanakage yureru tomizu#water's translations#Ichigo Hitofuri#Heshikiri Hasebe#Yamanbagiri Chougi#Onimaru Kunitsuna#Koryuu Kagemitsu#Daihannya Nagamitsu#hanakage is like... Going by the writing style of the writer as shown in Goumyu and Ishi's Utaawase skit all the obvious pitfalls appeared#touching more lightly upon other characters works more nicely for lighthearted situations or broad focuses--#when it comes to character-focussed stuff you need to ahve everyone play a part and FEEL#and I really missed the more... personal touch and characterisation efficiency the previous writer excelled in#Ichigo and Hon'ami aside there are very few songs in which the feelings of the swords and their opinion on the situation are highlighted#it's a shame-- especially when we've got such good singers on the cast#what's also a shame is that this seals off any kage plot Kogitsunemaru could've had after Utaawase (because it'd have been done before)#Hanakage was the myu where I was like “Ah. Kogitsunemaru has no unique themes/directions left.”#it's devastating but also kind of freeing in a sense#(and then MichiOku came around and simultaneously gave Kogi a place AND pulled the rug from under him so well-- mixed feelings on that one!#in any case please enjoy!#it'd be cute if we had a kage myu at one point with Kogi Koryuu and the one from this myu

I wonder if Evbo feels guilt for every poor noob pro and master that died at his hand
#woosh quotes themself#parkour civilization#evbo#I watched the whole first movie last night and this is the only thing I can think about#excellent story well executed and has some really good moments#but Evbo going ‘well THAT just happened’ to every plot beat adds another layer to the whole story#these people are so used to death that they don’t bat an eye at it#they’re constantly fighting against the force trying to kill them but when someone falls and dies they just make another tally and move on#like fuck bro

No but for real, Holo is an aguará-guazú/lobo guará/manned wolf, here, I'll look for a picture to compare, wait AAAHH LA MIERDA ESTÁ EN PELOTAS AAAAAAAA
#cosas mias#listen Spice and Wolf is a really good series with excellent characterization romance and plot and it has really mature writing#that being said Holo is naked on it. A lot.#spice and wolf#I thought searching for official art would have made it easier but she's even more naked if that's even possible

Holo-technology is an ethical nightmare. Lemme just magic up a person with individual thoughts and feelings to entertain myself, and then shut them off at my leisure. I’m sure this will have no real-world ramifications for me ever in my life.
We’re out here with a whole holo-village that’s gained sentience, and this is like the fifth time something like this has happened.
#lemme see if I can name some Incidents off the top of my head#moriarty#the doctor from voyager#Vic the lounge singer#the titular village in this episode I’m watching that this sad man made to feel less lonely#that little Irish village that Tom Paris made#I’m sure there are others but I am drawing a blank#the line between sentience and cleverly made AI is alarmingly thin in the Star Trek ‘verse#on one hand: FUN and endless whimsy#on the other: endless paranoia that the program can mutate just wrong and try its hand at taking over the ship#an excellent plot point overall#very good for mora dilemmas and you know that’s the bread and butter of your average Star Trek episode#Star Trek#French trek#ds9#Star Trek: the next generation#voyager#holodecks

One awful thing about Forever being trapped in the Nether, just as Etoiles was before him, is that you can’t sleep there. No proper rest. No *bed*. Attempts to do that result in explosions. There is no safe space here for you.
Forever is a good man - not an innocent one, but tries so hard to be good from the core of his very being, in his actions and deeds - who believes he deserves to be punished for his failings. And he has been tricked most harshly with a quest phrased as an ultimatum: fix things in a place no one is meant to go, or his son will be at risk.
And like Phil before him, he followed the orders - tell no one, go alone, be prepared - to the letter. For love of his child.
For the thinnest sliver of a chance to fix things. Hope, used against him.
You shouldn’t be here, Mr. President.
The Nether is a hell dimension and there will be no rest for the wicked.
#qsmp#qsmp forever#Qsmp rambling#cc! forever is SUCH a good actor and he and bad have been plotting so hard#the drug arc was excellent and I can’t wait to see what cinematic recaps he does when this ends#Qsmp Forever needs all the hugs
