luxray :3 redraw of a redraw. 2024/2019/2014 in order.

id in alt and below cut

[ID 1: digital painting of the Pokemon Luxray. It is lion-like, standing proudly on a high cliff with its mouth open and emitting electricity. Its tail and yellow markings are glowing. In the background is a dramatic scene of a stormy Sinnoh region, with lightning striking the tallest peak, Mt. Coronet. Wetlands and a pine forest are also visible. The image is dramatically lit to emphasize the lightning as well as the glows on Luxray.

ID 2: An older painting depicting the same scene. Luxray is roaring, with no lightning coming out of its mouth. The background is less complex with the lightning striking nonspecific mountains.

ID 3: An even older painting depicting the same scene. Luxray's anatomy is wonky and it is not roaring. The background is less complex than the previous image with no specific target for the lightning.

i just put my comfort character through a microwave and i’ll never forgive myself for it.

i have such strange feelings about gen 4’s pokédex and specifically the new cross-generational evolutions it introduced. a lot of them feel unnecessary and slightly boring but harmless at best, some of them are active tragedies of wasted potential, but then there are a few shining exceptions where i’m like ‘wait, that evo WASN’T introduced in the same gen as the original one? they didn’t think to do that right off the bat?’ i’m looking at togekiss i cannot imagine a world in which togetot was ever conceived as the final stage in a line. like that is not a fully formed pokémon get out of here. thank you togekiss

thoughts on tgirl vriska ? she’s real to me but ur like the #1 vriska enjoyer on my dash so I was wondering what u think

im gonna be real after going into the tag every day for the past 3+ years and seeing every possible take and headcanon my bar is so low that i'm just happy we're in agreement that vriska is a girl

tgirl vriska is a well-supported read of her character, but not the only valid one in my opinion. that being said, if you're a hardcore cis vriska truther, you do yourself a great disservice by ignoring her dysphoric characterization---whether you read that as early-transition transfem dysphoria, lesbian butch dysphoria, alternian caste dysphoria, or any combination of the above.

i do not, however, read her dysphoria as transmasculine in nature, and maintain that vriska's gender (girl/woman) is extremely important in understanding her role in the story, her relationships with other characters, and how the concepts of heroism, protagonism, justice, and strength impact her narrative. a transfem reading does not detract from this, nor does it particularly enhance anything to me, someone who already read vriska as a dysphoric lesbian & therefore already accounted for some form of Gender to be going on regardless of the hypothetical birth-assignment situation.

basically, my personal opinion is that her trans status is a nice garnish but irrelevant to what already is a fascinating, compelling, and well-rounded (dare i say, strong) female character. the fact that she's a female character is more important to me than the fact (or headcanon) that she is a trans character, because i regularly see and cope with the most asinine and blatantly incorrect headcanons and takes about her on this earth. you're asking a man dying of thirst whether a gallon of ice water or a gallon of merely cool water is better.

my bar for sexuality headcanons is likewise on the floor. y'all don't have to agree with me on the lesbian reading but as long as we concur that she's wlw then everything is a-okay by me. my final message 2 da world: never go into the tags of your favorite character.

a thing i enjoy: putting characters that aren't even aro (like not even in a headcanon way) in a qpr. because some allo people irl can be happy in qprs too. bc qprs aren't just an offbrand replacement for romance, created just for ppl who can't have "the real thing" to settle for

Sighh. Trying to figure out if I'm going to project onto Night again for this next drabble....

People had every right to think will was guilty when he was framed, no doubt about it.

“I had to open you up to get a decent sound out of you”

Him bursting out of that one crime scene, covered in blood and having contaminated it.

He knocked out the brick in his own wall because he was hearing scratching inside that wasn’t there.

He was unnerving, he was a scary man. He said disturbing shit.

I don’t blame the characters for believing he was a killer.

Light spoilers for TDI 2024 by the start of episode 5 (and technically also TDI '23's finale)

Please tell me Axel-Ripper ends up as a more important ship than Caleb-Priya. I know it's a shot in the dark, but wow is it more interesting than what's quickly looking like one of the biggest finalist derailments in Total Drama history and a floundering attempt at a new Justin arc.
