The day FNAF Charlie Emily was shut out..
#myart#chloesimagination#comic#fnaf#five nights at freddy's#fnaf fanart#william afton#charlie emily#charlotte emily#fnaf 2#fnaf pizzaria simulator#William Afton you deserve nothing good in this world#this is why you got sent to super hell#Charlie’s whole story makes me so sad#not only was she ignored by her own father#locked out of thr pizzeria during a rainstorm#but her fathers friend .. someone she probably trusted#instead of helping her out of the rain#bringing her home or helping her back inside#betrays her inherent trust in him#and leaves her out to rot#only being given a chance through the security puppet coming to her#I’m surprised she isn’t more pissed while being the puppet#she deserved so much more#finally did a full design for her too in the games..#I actually really like how this comic turned out#even if it makes me sad

Kingdom Hearts 3 - The Caribbean
#kingdom hearts 3#kh3#the caribbean#scenery#my gif#my favorite world in the game#it's so beautifully crafted and fun to explore#they did such a good job with port royal i'm no expert on the movies but i'm sure it's a super faithful recreation#there are so many lush islands to find with caves full of treasure. it's like a real pirate adventure#i'm glad that we're able to dive into the water because i really like underwater scenery and being able to freely swim around#i love sora's pirate outfit and that he gets a ship of his own to sail. he has such a blast in this world#the banter between sora donald goofy and jack while on the ship is a lot of fun too#big fan of how they integrated the organization's search for the black box with the chest that contains davy jones's heart#gotta love when the main story ties into the plot of a disney movie#the final cutscenes in this world are insane and so well rendered that they're almost indistinguishable from the movie#i sent screenshots to friends asking if they could tell the difference and they couldn't#not that i'm complaining because it really elevated the experience but why did they go so hard

2024 art summary! it sure has been a year
#ever makes art#i bsky tweeted a bit but it feels weird talking there still so ill do my usual rambling into tags here :)c#i burned out super bad in the middle of this year for months where it felt like i couldnt draw anything good no matter how hard i tried#and the harder i tried the worst it felt - to the degree that i legitimately thought i wasnt going to be able to draw anything again#which sounds SO dramatic i know i know. but feelings arent always rational!!! and so many others things were going wrong at the same time#so it was strange putting together this year's art summary and realizing Huh. i did still have paintings to put in every space#that fear/anxiety spiral seems even sillier and more meaningless now that i have distance and proof of how irrational it was...#...but in reflection i'd like to think of it as proof that even when you feel at your worse it's worth it to keep trying...!!#after the Black Hole of Nothing i've been working every day on never ending doujin and xv anthology and orv sketchzine and merch#i can't say that i feel my artistic skills have like. improved or anything... but the passion i feel for the stories i read and#the stories i want to tell is still there!! and the happiness from getting to put form to those feelings large or small is worth it too#anyway......... lotta words to say tho i haven't posted much anymore and socmed is imploding and the world is dark#thank you very much for staying with me another year. i am - as ever - always grateful

Hi I have caught up to you on having feelings about Zhuzhi-Lang. He's a good boy! 🥺 Good snake boy! 🥺 I had the thought, after Zhuzhi let SQQ leave after SQQ yelled at him... what if they Stole Him. What if.
(Also have you read/been recommended anything by corduroyserpent yet? Big writer of Zhuzhi-Lang fics, including a very cute de-aged Zhuzhi-Lang and some zhushen)
Justifications of bride-stealing!
(AND HE'S THE BEST BOY 😭 I LOVE HIM SO MUCH, SO MUCH!! have some further au thoughts because this has contaminated my brain...)
What I think would actually happen if they stole SQQ? Absolutely nothing good for anyone, LBH would Lose His Fucking Mind xD as a more interesting answer though, I like the idea that Shen "Pedantic Nitpicky Asshole" Qingqiu's primary point of argument is that he is not a bride so he cannot be "bridenapped" regardless of demonic tradition or intention!
This eventually leads to them all completely avoiding the Maigu Ridge incident because TLJ realizes that, somehow, SQQ doesn't realize the depths of his son's feelings for him and decides to put all his efforts into being a wingman for his nephew instead because he finds the entire thing absolutely hilarious and rather satisfying after his own sad romance. Obviously someone like SQQ would do much better with his good, loyal nephew than the disappointing offspring of that disastrous relationship!
As for ZZL he just has to assume that LBH must not be treating SQQ anywhere near the way he should be (and like... he isn't wrong at this point, there is a non-zero amount of torture and terror going on here) if SQQ doesn't see himself as being tied to LBH in any way. And if he's not attached to LBH then there's absolutely no reason he shouldn't make his own efforts to seduce SQQ! After all, if LBH isn't valuing SQQ properly then obviously ZZL has to step up because someone as kind as SQQ deserves the best!!!
#svsss#zhushen#zhuzhi lang#tianlang jun#shen qingqiu#sqq#zzl#tlj#my art#if this is incoherent please pardon me orz the timeline is all jumbled up in my head i read this series way too fast#but this is the rabbit hole your ask sent me down#listen i love zhuzhi-lang SO much#he is SO good and also so stupid bless his scaly heart#and tianlang-jun does NOT help matters#i want to see their combined efforts to woo sqq away from lbh i think it'd be hilarious#...however considering this would take place before getting ride of xin mo i can't imagine things. uh. go well if dragged out too long#lbh is not in like a super duber place mentally at this point in the story#on the other hand can you imagine shang qinghua witnessing this and doing his ABSOLUTE best to nope out of that nightmare#LBH'S FATHER AND COUSIN ARE TRYING TO STEAL THE PERSON LBH'S DECIDED TO ROMANCE?? WHEN HAS THAT EVER WORKED OUT WELL IN PIDW????#KEEP SQH OUT OF IT!!!! (he's not going to be allowed to stay out of it)#sqq's mental gymnastics over this romantic offensive would be very impressive#well you've given me a nice thing to think about while falling asleep tonight#EDIT: oh and as far as corduroyserpent i know i've at least read their ''i shine only with the light you gave me''#that one was absolutely WONDERFUL i was very emotional about it - i don't know whether or not i've stumbled across any of their others tho#i'll have to dive into their ao3 profile and search it more intentionally though if they come with praise like this 👀

seeing people say that future trio is oversaturating the fandom and its annoying and making them hate the game
#funnily enough i agree#the game is overrepresented considering its not that much of a jump in quality compared to others#the rest of the games have amazing characters too#i think it gets a lot of attention bc the sum of its parts is so strong#as compared to the other titles#where rt suffers froom 1st game of franchise syndrome#and 3ds games are underrepresented and brought down by certain decisions in story and gameplay#even if their stories have moments that hit much harder than anything in explorers#gates ending is prolly the best moment in the franchise i think#super has the most enjoyable gameplay imo#but gates gets forgotten bc of bad rep and gameplay#while super's overall story is messy bc its 70% its own thing and then gates ending reheated and with extra twist we need to explain#anyways i hope when people get tired of content of certain characters they mute or block people instead off disliking the characters#id be sad if i contributed to people disliking a good game or character

The night where it all began, part three.
Previous / Next
Lilith: [voice quivering] Where am I? Who are you?
Vlad: [abstractedly] Ah, you’re awake! Much sooner than anticipated, but it can only mean the transfer was success-
Lilith: You undressed me? What else have you done, you dirty old man?
Vlad: You misunderstand the circumstances, girl. Those men nearly killed you. I saved you. Your gown was ruined, so I only thought-
Lilith: Thought you’d have your way with me while I was helpless to resist?
Vlad: Please calm yourself. You were rapidly fading when I came upon you. Although I try to avoid meddling in human affairs, I’ve been seeking a student to mentor for some time. I was forced to act rashly and-
Lilith: Stop speaking nonsense! My veins are burning, yet my bones chatter. What is happening to me?
Vlad: I bestowed upon you the dark gift. With it comes a second life, one that can be eternal. It will be difficult at first and certainly painful, but I can help. My name is Vladislaus Straud. Once you’re strong enough to travel, I’ll take you to my home. I’ll make you comfortable there. When the transformation is complete, there'll be no end to the things I can teach-
Lilith: I already have a home, and I’m not going anywhere with a violent pervert like you!
Vlad: [grunts in unexpected pain] Get back here, girl! You're being hysterical! [telepathically] You can run now, but you’ll return in time.
#ts4#sims 4#ts4 story#sims 4 story#story: hzid#vlad has terrible bedside manner#who's surprised?#he obviously could have easily subdued her#but he knows curiosity and desperation will compel her back#also it's not super noticeable because i didn't do any extreme close-ups but vlad has two good eyes 👀#we'll learn how one of them got damaged eventually#i also had to finally give him his own dialogue color#(and we're gonna pretend it makes sense for lilith's updo to look like this when disheveled because i like the hair too much)#lilith vatore#vladislaus straud#blood tw

Hear me out:
Harumasa x lazy!Reader
THIS LAZY FOR LAZY COMBO ??? match my freak? no. match my laziness.
i do hc harumasa to be a very low maintenance partner. he prefers to spend time at home with you rather than going out because he’s already spending so much time at work.
so during off days, he’s definitely indulging in whatever you feel like doing. late mornings, easy meals, spending as much time in bed together. i think he has found ways to even make chores so much less of a burden for both of you because of that. i do think that he might be the kind of partner to bring food back on his way home. you both won’t have to think about what to eat which means more time to cuddle in bed together.
you’re also one of his reasons for not coming into work. yanagi and miyabi knows that if he’s ever late, or if he just doesn’t even show up, it’s because you softly called out to him. how could he EVER resist your sleepy voice and grabby hands, he’s got to fight for his life everyday (and to make sure he doesn’t lose his job).
overall, i think that harumasa knows how to be lazy but in a smart way. even if you’re too lazy, he doesn’t mind it, he understands it in fact.
#lumiresponds ˚✧₊⁎☆#asaba harumasa#harumasa zzz#zzz harumasa#harumasa x you#YO WHAT ???#LUMI POSTING ABOUT SOMEONE OTHER THAN LIGHTER ???#actually i sort of look forward to his release#i think his personality is quite fun#also im so sorry for mischaracterization#im sure hes a good worker#i won’t be posting much about him#but i will always accept reqs#it just won’t be as long as lighter’s stuff#also hes like such an obvious flirt#i mean calm down sir we’ve got ninevev to fight#ALSO HE WAS SUPER CUTE IN HIS BANGBOO FORM#and so funny too during yanagi’s whole story

aroaces need more books tbh i hate trying to find books with aroace protagonists and just getting recommended loveless over and over again. which is why im here today to recommend you read the murderbot diaries
#stale pepsi water#seriously though murderbot is just really good#sighh i need more aroace books where the focus isnt that theyre aroace though#like im tired of aroace narratives i just want a story where a character IS aroace. and thats it. they have a normal story but they are-#-aroace. and that meaningfully impacts their relationships#thats it!#and tmbd is good for that#since mb is super sex/romance repulsed aroace#which is relevant#in the sense that like it comes up a bit and impacts its view of others and the world#but its not like. THE thing about it#is it too much to ask to be seen as normal? to be able to be in a story where your identity isnt the focus?#or are only allos allowed to be normal. idk#aroace#aromantic#asexual#might just be saying words but sighh#you guys should send me recs of books with aroace protagonists where its not a story ABOUT being aroace#the murderbot diaries

3.13 | ᴛʜᴇ ʟᴀꜱᴛ ᴏꜰ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛɪᴍᴇ ʟᴏʀᴅꜱ
link to the post I accidentally wound up prattling endlessly about in the tags 💀
#doctor who#tenth doctor#martha jones#david tennant#freema agyeman#(good god. without even meaning to I went into 'psycho stream of consciousness tagging' mode. whoops)#always thinking of that one post#where OP mentions how the writing tries to make it seem like Ten looked right through Martha/etc#which is a good concept for demonstrating his grief. but also isnt what we really see throughout S3#(not saying he wasn't a grieving MESS because he was. but he's a multi-faceted character and he can grieve AND value Martha simultaneously)#but we see such fierce protective instinct+trust; a bond between them that obviously isn't some one-sided affair#+ his clear intent to impress her/be admired and respected by her (apropos the post that inspired this sentiment)#but RTD obviously isn't the most infallible of writers#*cough* [list of reasons I cut down b/c long] *cough*#He can make Martha say “he's not seeing me/he doesn't look at me” but then you just watch with your eyes and you get a different story#It's like the opposite of when Moffat tries to make you believe someone is super important through bold claims without showing his work#instead RTD tries to make you believe Ten is functionally blind to Martha's existence while showing numerous examples of the contrary#then bring in the novels+myspace blog+cartoon that he all signed off on. Which tie together to create a canon backdrop#basically I said all of that to say this—#it's the whole reason I had to make this blog to get this sort of stuff off my chest (even if it's just for me sometimes)—#Ten not only SAW Martha—he trusted+respected+enjoyed+adored her. And it's a good thing#it doesn't cheapen his grief. I feel like people must think it does which is why I constantly see bad unnecessary takes about them#it just means that Martha was SO important to him and it's ok. they had a killer friendship outside the unrequited minutiae and it's ok#there's even a comic where 'someone' makes him believe she's Martha and he makes her change her appearance because “it's still too raw”#Just saying you don't say that sort of thing about someone whose existence you're all blasé about#Martha already gets fucked by the narrative in enough ways without people totally missing her significance in the Doctor's life#you don't have to ship them to appreciate them on a deeper level#anyway. fuck. if you actually read all of these then I'm so sorry#creating this blog has taught me that there are only like two people who feel the same way about tenmartha matters and it’s fine 😂#but if I didn’t give myself an outlet it would probably form a tumor SO there we are then

Kingdom Hearts 3 - Toy Box
#kingdom hearts 3#kh3#toy box#scenery#my gif#running around andy's room and seeing sora donald and goofy's toy themed appearance for the first time is such a vivid memory for me#they went so hard making that toy store it's soooo detailed. just imagine all of the assets needed to fill the place#box art for toys; video game cover cases; various figures/toys to put out on display for a variety of different toy departments#they could have remade al's toy barn but no they created this huge three story tall mega super store#it's every kids dream and looks too grand and amazing to be an actual existing building in the toy story canon lol#but even the plot elements of this world are so intriguing#there's the introduction of yozora; the gigas mechs; having sora thrown into a tv screen right into the verum rex game; split worlds#so much happens here and i just know it'll be fully recontextualized in future game installments#i'm really looking forward to that#but all of that aside it's really neat to be toy sized#it's all just such a fun experience. good world

more wolf than girl
[ID: a digital drawing of ylfa from neverafter carrying the wolf's skin on her back and over her head so most of her face is obscured. the wolf's eyes and ylfa's chest are glowing. behind her, depicted stylistically, is a path that leads to a red house, and all along it are small red figures. ylfa is still in her mostly human form, her arms and legs between wolf and human, but her hood is on the wolf's head. End ID]
#neverafter#d20 neverafter#ylfa snorgelsson#neverafter fanart#neverafter ylfa#im so happy that i finally managed to do something creative that went more or less my way#rly happy with how the wolf came out#fun study too#i just finished neverafter and mwah excellent story#so many good moments but coming to baba yaga's house and finding the wolf died to give them a chance#and then ylfa 'putting him on'#omg and her entire scene. so heartbreaking and real#it touched me enough that i settled on this#also super funny and completely unintentional that her head kinda looks like the wolf's tongue#i was going for putting the braids where the fangs might go and it lined up

Wandering my hallways and pacing around my home thinking about Final Fantasy XV and its myriad examples of the core cast casually dehumanizing themselves for the sake of what they believe to be something greater. Ignis has perfectly fine vision but wears glasses to correct to 20/20. "When you can't focus, I focus for you." All of Episode Prompto. Ravus seeing his sister's death as a tragedy, not just because she's dead, but because she's dead and she doesn't even get to rest. The repeated imagery of getting closer and closer to Noct's destined goal is literally him trying to hold very still and not flinch as he lets a sword hit him. The goddamn ending. The game is not in conversation with this theme. These are things that are true to the characters and they cannot imagine a world where they are not. I'm climbing on the walls.
#sometimes I start thinking too hard about how Ignis started looking after noct when he was six and I have to go stare at a wall#or the fact that he knew beyond a shadow of a doubt his eyesight wasn't coming back and he still tried to downplay it#all of gladio's. everything honestly.#Born to die for you made to take hits for you molded to carry you#and he can't fathom it when Noct buckles under the pressure because to him he's never had any choice but to just shoulder it#and facing the fact that he's spent his whole life building himself to serve one person but if he doesnt have that one person he has NOTHIN#and then youre like oh both these guys are super fucked up from this lifetime of servitude but at least prompto had a normal life!#and then episode prompto hits#and on TOP of that theres prompto recurring story beats of changing himself to be 'good' enough. physically fit and chipper and cheery.#and his belief that being himself will actually just drag everyone down with him#AND LIKE! none of this is ADDRESSED#it doesnt get better they were all always slaves to something greater there is no other way this could have ended.#I have to go eat drywall#final fantasy#final fantasy xv#final fantasy 15#ff15#ffxv#ff 15#ff xv#chocobros#noctis lucis caelum#ignis scientia#gladiolus amicitia#prompto argentum#lunafreya nox fleuret#ravus nox fleuret
