People in my notes be like more, more, I need more. Give me more. I need the next part. Bro, you didn't reblog or comment on the existing part. Why give you more? Sorry for bugging you.
I feel ya, hun. It's funny when you posted the next part not days ago and someone who didn't reblog or comment on the other parts demands the next chapter.
I give them the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they are new to Tumblr or do not know that a reblog/comment would be the nice thing to do before asking for more.
I don't block spamliker or people demanding more in my notes.
I do not demand reblogs or comments. I'm happy if someone takes their time to show a little "love" for the silly little story I share for free.
If someone is nice enough to leave a comment and ask for an update, - that's a different story. I try to answer - but sometimes I'm busy and forget to answer. 😂 I have a posting schedule, though.
It is what it is. Artists/writers/GIF makers/Content Creators have asked for reblogs and/or comments for years.
We lost so many great people on this platform because of the lack of interaction with their art.

once again thinking about jason as duke’s robin. he’s ~4 years younger than jason, and that puts him at 8-12 during Jason’s time as robin. that’s prime time to get attached to your local kid vigilante before your own life goes downhill.
and if we try to keep duke’s meeting with bruce in zero year + duke’s age (so he can remember the meeting and hold that conversation with bruce), he has to be around 8. if he starts following batman through the news at that time because of the mess that just happened, the robin he sees is probably jason. I’ve literally connected the dots
#we are not of course keeping zero year itself. what a mess.#maybe smth very similar so it’s still the riddler causing mass chaos!#the titans so we actually keep the no robin physically present in the story part the same#look. if we want zero year convo we need to give bruce a robin at the time. it could be 17-18yr old who’s not even in gotham bc he’s with#by time tim shows up he’s already attached to jason#and then steph’s robin suddenly for a bit but only for a bit. and then tim comes back but he’s in bludhaven for a while#i do think duke would think steph is really cool tho. and they reasonably couldve met as civilians#and then duke’s busy bouncing around foster homes the streets and looking for his parents#i wanted to talk about how much i love it and the tags are just be working out a timeline for post crisis events & post flashpoint ones (an#some of duke’s important events are related to things which are no longer canon. such is life. let’s do our best based on ages)#duke thomas#jason todd

laios when his party needed more members:
#eliot posts#dunme#delicious in dungeon#dungeon meshi#laios touden#toshiro nakamoto#though i suppose this samurai was less hired and more just dragged along lmao#toshiro (and his team's) existence within this setting absolutely tickles me#bc the setting is so like. Standard Ambiguously Old Timey European Fantasy Setting#and then there just. is a samurai there.#it makes absolute logical sense if you think about it#like yeah of course a world that includes many continents will have more than just Fantasy Europe#but nonetheless seeing a samurai and a knight side by side in the same story is such a genre twist#(i hope no one has made this joke before lol it feels too obvious)

because I rent a car to get out to my office, sometimes I'm confronted with a radio that has wildly different preset stations than I would ever select. mostly this means I have to suffer through a lot of country, or christian talk radio, before I run out of patience and switch over to the stations I like; but other times, it's someone with a thick accent reading a very lengthy advertisement for the Chicago Public Library in an almost....computerized way? and then long carnatic music, with a celtic fiddle breakdown in the middle? with absolutely no explanation for why this is what it is.
.........only afterwards did I discover that it's the station for a nearby university. then it made sense.
#I know numbers stations are old fashioned and mostly done but that was very much the vibe.#........a while ago I was listening to a very very cool station where the interviewer was interviewing one of the attorneys#involved in the CPD consent decree#I wonder if it's the same station? that would make sense.#while driving home the other day I thought about how fun it would be to write a story where a businessman in town for a trip#rents a car and starts listening to the weird radio station presets. getting more and more into this weird station#that doesn't explain itself or name its dj. just plays the sound of the wind and music even google's never heard of.#I still think that would be neat#celestial emporium of benevolent knowledge

Sometimes I think a lot about Arthur's old journal, the one he had prior to the game's events that got burned in a fire, and how Arthur went a long time without a replacement.
He wrote that he missed writing and drawing, more than he thought he would.
The journal is a wonderful tool that allows us see through Arthur's eyes and how he deals with things, it's one of his healthiest coping mechanisms, so it makes me wonder what those journal-less months were really like for Arthur.
Whatever and wherever the fire was, the time spent up north in the Grizzlies and travelling down from it, Dutch nearly buying some land but getting spooked by the law, new people joining them, and then the gang spending months in the wilderness before moving to Blackwater - it all sounded like a hectic time. But he never wrote about how he felt, he just wrote about what had happened.
Yet, he said he missed writing and drawing. He missed it. He had the itch to write and draw for ages, but he couldn't.
Maybe he struggled with the chaos of those few months without a journal to empty his frustrations and thoughts into, maybe he saw so many things he wanted to draw and it aggravated him that he couldn't, maybe he was slightly more irritable than usual with everything that had pent up and having no means to release it, and so on.
I just think about it a lot.
Especially if you took the journal out of the main game, you'd be taking out a huge portion of the story and the insights we have into who Arthur is as a person too. It's impossible for Arthur to not write in the journal, even if you never open it. It's a vital tool that helps define him and show us how he moves through the world, how he copes with the world.
So if Arthur had his journal taken away by a fire all those months ago and went a long time without, what would he have been like?
#I wonder what his old journal was like#what he had written about#his journal full of drawings just lost to a fire.. an artists worst nightmare truly#do you think he goes through journals quickly? filling them up after a few months? or do you think he keeps the same ones for ages#maybe he'd had that previous journal for a few years#do you think -in the main story- that he missed it even after so long? how there were things written in it about people who'd died?#I think I think too much#I don't mean to speculate arthur's characters but it just really interests me#I bet he's still journaling even in the afterlife#silly ol' arthur#rdr2#red dead redemption 2#mick thinks#arthur morgan#red dead redemption community#red dead redemption 2 spoilers#oh arthur

Can't believe this writer is trying to argue the problem with the show is that it isn't treating the main villain like a one-note, simplistic character and this is somehow too confusing because viewers won't know he's the villain despite all the villainous things he does like murder, manipulation, gaslighting, and orchestrating the complete destruction of an entire Elven realm. How media illiterate do you have to be to think exploring a villain's motivation in some way constitutes trying to trick the audience into think he isn't really a villain?
#rings of power#trop#lord of the rings#lotr#sauron#some many “This is what is wrong with this show” article are just the most banal things I have ever read#the wrote point they are trying to make is that because the ending is know#the show is bad for taking it time to get there#that it is bad to try and flesh out the story and characters and it needs to be more simplistic to get to the ending quicker#it is the same old nonsense said about any prequel#that because we know how it ends there's no tension#shit like that#which no one ever makes about stories based on real life#no one ever said that about titanic even though we all know the boat will sink#trop is trying to take a timeline and turn it into a drama#but surprisingly many just want an enactment of the timeline#they basically want the fellowship prologue in long form#which would be boring

I'm not getting into The Giving Tree discourse...
#personal#delete later#idk i just saw a post of the “alternate ending” comic on my dash and everyone praising it as an improvement and “fixing” the original#which i kinda resent#while tulli and i was taking my nephew to a book store we walked around the kids section and found the giving tree and we read through it#and i was so stricken by how profoundly sad it is. it's not a happy story#in the end both versions tell the exact same lesson. but one flat out tells you and the other makes you sit with a pit in your stomach#and work to find the answer#i dunno it's kids literature but kids literature is important. i don't wanna discredit anyone's bad memories with the book but also i think#sometimes it's ok to make kids a bit sad and upset with fiction.#tweet that goes “what if romeo and juliet didn't kill themselves and explained to the audience that family feuds are bad”#idk you can't seriously read the original book as an adult and say it's glorifying self-martyrdom#when the final drawing of the book is of an old tired man sitting on arotting stump with his hat fallen to the ground#again i don't wanna invalidate people's feelings if they enjoy the alt version i think it's really nice too. but the original has its#purpose too. imagine if at the end of the lorax they show that the boy did it and replanted the world happy ending#wait they did that in the movie shit#i dunno i just love somber children's literature. tulli and i are talking about moomin right now and how the series ends with the moomin#family just leaving. and nobody gets to say goodbye to them. their friends have to find ways to live with the emptiness they've left behin

Ayaka is in Love with Hiroko has me in my Old Fashion Cupcake feels since both Japanese office romances deal with a lost underling being inspired by their cool superior to enjoy life more and falling for them in the process.
Their supervisors' advice is the reason they are the excellent workers they are and it affirmed their queerness since they fell in love with their bosses.
(And they are both color coded!)
So it makes perfect sense that Ayaka would lighten up after seeing the brightness and brilliance of Hiroko much like Togawa did after seeing Nozue's radiance.
After all, Hiroko was the one to give Akaya her color.
So it's interesting that the previous episode highlighted that Akaya's nails are pink.
Because this episode showed that whoever hurt Hiroko a decade ago was also a Pink Person which has caused Hiroko to become stuck and it was shown through the nails and the drink.
Even though their bosses gave them life-changing advice, their bosses became comfortable and cautious, so they need their persistent subordinates to remind them of their brightness.
And their love (for life).
#Japan has done it again#ayaka is in love with hiroko#old fashion cupcake#color coded people in love#the colors mean things#they are the same story in different font#and I love that#Ayaka-chan wa Hiroko-senpai ni Koishiteru

there's the same old narrative going around that "nico was invited to a university to talk about sustainability and obsessed over lewis hamilton instead"
and like you need to understand that. he is going to a auditorium of 18 year olds who were literally zygotes 🤏 when he retired and if they're not actively watching f1 they might've never heard of him. so how does he introduce himself, and why is a petrol guzzling sports driver even talking about sustainability at all? chances are even if you don't know f1, you know lewis hamilton, and the childhood best friend who beat him is a compelling story to segue into hybrid cars and EVs to an audience who might otherwise not care. it's being an effective public speaker.
#nico rosberg#'Nico's talking ab Lew again!!!!!!' but it's the same old story. because it's part of the bigger reason he's there#that's why there's no new lore or anything dropped. we the informed know this story
