me and @hsavinien pulled together our Owl House cosplays. Wearing dresses gives my fat, butch ass hives, so instead I did the ten-seconds-on-screen latest fashions from the human realm gag.

I didn't sew anything but the skirt and I guess technically sewing the two wigs together (HEAVY, BTW. And yeah we just FOUND those pants!), but I'm DEEPLY proud of how the props came out, particularly the violin for @hsavinien's Raine cosplay.

it was a real, cheap/busted violin. Cut the head off, crafted a palisman shaped head out of cedar. Sav wanted glowy light up strings so I figured out how to string it up by crafting a tail piece that could hold the strings and hide the battery box hole, and suggesting Sav design a simple 3D printed peice to route the LED strand thru since she has printer access. Which she did an amazing job of, and she did the painted embellishments.

Also fairly proud of how Owlbert came out. I love making props out of the actual materials, so instead of 3d printing it or whatever I carved him out of basswood with a Dremel. Which I've never done before.

I was frustrated with the stain job at first, but after some fiddly buffing realized he has a antiqued, lived-in look that seems perfect for a palisman of a wild witch that was carved when she was a teenager. He's also removable so he can be displayed a little easier.

We also handed these out, and some people got misty about it, which was fun.

Felt good to cosplay and art this way after not doing it since like... 2017. Must do again sooner.

rank hottness levels of majima in each game/phase Now!! (pls....)

/ suggestive (its nothing bad)

ok im ngl im not entirely familiar w all the games but im ranking the ones i have seen but they're basically more or less only my favorites

anyway i'm starting w one of my all-time favorites ... my beloved goromi!!

seeing him like this makes me feel things i didnt know i can feel. is it the lesbianism in my brain is making some sort of connection? is it because his little date w kiryu was silly a hell? is it a secret third thing? i will never know. but i suspect it's because i see him like this and my brain tells me that is a woman and my lesbian instincts kick in because what purpose was i put on this earth for if not to share my unconditional and infinite love to every woman that has ever existed

anyway all i know is goromi is my darling girlfriend .. she reminds me of candy-chan (and in turn, ive found similarities between sanji and majima im certain are mostly delusions) and i want to go shopping with her and spoil her with sweets, as i want to do with every woman ever

next is 24-hour prince majima .. but specifically from like a pirate (or whatever its called)

something about him tickles me in the head (it's the hair) like hey boy, hey guy ... do you need a housewife ... ? LIKE THE JUXTAPOSITION OF HOW HE LOOKS NOW IN THE MV (?) COMPARED TO IN Y0 IS SO FUCKING INSANE TO ME. DEAR GOD.

the distant sadness in his eyes and general melancholic maturity about him makes him hot tbh. like wow i want to kiss you on every inch of your skin, i want to soothe your worries with homemade meals and warm baths and kisses between stolen cracks of moonlight, i want to greet you good morning and good night and shower you with spontaneous grand gestures on a random tuesday, i want show you everything that is good in this world and help you understand that it exists within you too.

i like this majima a lot.

h- ... hannya man ... good god ok ... i ... i need time to breathe

i know exactly what appeals to me; it's the fancy tux/suit and the mysterious aura from the mask. wow ... idk its such a drastic shift from his usual silliness ... like wow ... hey. hi. hey. are you free this weekend? do you need anything from me?

idk im just saying, he looks like he'd tell you when to cum then make you clean up the mess or like he'd tie you up and play with you for a bit. and rlly idc, whatever you say handsome~ hehehehehehe~

putting him in because i see him often (because im playing y0) but lord of the night majima and i . hes okay ..

i mean that genuinely too like. he's fine. i get the appeal. i think its the slicked back hair into a tight ponytail that throws me off a bit orz but i .. i like his vibe, or aura as the kids say .. he feels like such a loverboy, like he'd surprise me with random visits and bouquets of flowers, or he'd kiss you very tenderly and slowly, almost gently.

in terms of "i want him." he gets a pass only because he is majima and im in love with him unfortunately (tho i shall see if my thoughts on him change because im on chapter two of y0 and he hasnt even shown up yet)

then of course we have this iconic fit (i picked this photo because he looks so puppy dog here .. wow)

giggling, twirling my hair. hi. hey <3 from an objective perspective, this outfit is kind of ass like ? snake-skin jacket, leather pants and ??? no shirt?? but GOD. unfortunately, its a terrible outfit on an insanely hot forty something year old. i want you. i want you so bad.

and i dont actually know if his hair changes w this outfit, like if its short + undercut then grows a bit longer or not but ive seen pics of him in this fit w longer hair and he looks better like that tbh. also i cant shake off how uncomfortable this outfit looks like that must be so hot to wear .. but again idc im kissing you in the mouth. let's go play at the claw machines in the sega arcades and sing karaoke together and hold hands and kiss and fall asleep next to each other and kiss and get dinner together and take walks in parks and kiss and kiss and kiss and kiss and—

and finally my number majima one is .. !

this specific scene of majima from like a pirate where he does the thing with his finger like AUGHSDGHADNNN!!

the disheveled hair, the smirk, THE WAY HE BECKONS YOU WITH HIS FINGER. good god!! majima was alr my favorite by default because he was a weird ass freak i found funny but THIS? hello sir, daddy even, where is your shirt and do you mind taking off your pants too? qw?e@?w$e?asf?a?!!!@?e!#?!@ HEAHEHHDSHFAEr!~@?#!@!!@!mDFNDFSMA,,,,SDFM

I Need You.

(thank you anon for listening to my tedtalk and for telling me go a bit insane about my silly old man that i want so badly)

The best time of the day! 8D

Gosh but these are so much fun tho!  In all four pics your big rubbery forms work to such great effect in making the poses feel animated and dynamic, fun and charming; Blaze’s dance-like twirl and Young Sonic and Sally’s energetic runs are my particular favorites (the latter in particular captures a very specific sort of Kid Energy in a way I just love), but they all work so well on that level.  They’re also all rich in really nice little details; I like the stripe of orange you add to Blaze’s outfit to give it a more flame-like feel, for example, or the bolt-”knuckles” you put on Bunnie’s robotic hand.  The light texturing you give to King Sonic’s fur to show his greater age (and for that matter the slightly more desaturated blue you use) is also great, and I adore your choice to give Li’l Sonia a back-quill.  I also love how the juxtaposition of that pic with the one of The Young Sonic And Sally highlights how she inherited her Dad’s childhood diastema!

Sonic posting time

[colorfulatlas]

So today, it's cartoon posting AND triple cartoon review! During this month I've watched a couple of series that I will leave my thoughts on as I do when cartoon posting happens, and I'm planning 2 watch more soon as I find more content to watch so expect more!

those series, today, are:

The Ghost and Molly McGee:

Maya and the Three:

and Metal Family:

before you continue, these reviews contain spoilers of each series, so if u wanna go completely blind, go check them out before reading this! TLDR they're all great and I recommend them.

Spoilers ahead!

The Ghost and Molly McGee:

This one was pretty much felt like a refresh from the deep and dark plots like Elliot from Earth did in Cartoon Network, just it's Disney this time.

It's about a girl named Molly McGee who, instead of being cursed by Scratch the ghost, accidentaly makes her curse him instead, so, Scratch, who just wanted to live alone and scare people to stay alive in his ghost world, has to stay forever with Molly unless she leaves the house she just has moved on permanently. Molly wants to make friends and bring happiness to her new town, Scratch doesn't give a shit and just wants to eat and scare people for his own benefit.

First things first, the series animation is VERY good, it's puppet/rigged animation, but it's smooth, well made, fluid and expressive, also the juxtaposition of Molly being quite saturated over the opaque, grayer town it's a nice detail.

From the characters themselves I really liked Molly and Scratch's dynamic, and how he's slowly getting softer and more caring thanks to Molly and yes how he's also self aware. I like most characters, Libby and her friendship with Molly, Molly's parents and her brother, Molly's grandma... tho I dislike Andrea, and all the obsessed TOH fans calling it a Lumity moment with her and Molly, bitch she literally bullies and outcasts people into saying her name right which it isn't even right on the first place, why it should matter?!

Anyway, I wanna see how the plot progresses, if more people are going to know about Scratch, it just hooked me up! I really liked it and I think you will too!

Maya and the Three:

As you can see from the pic, ASTOUNDING TOP TIER visuals, Jorge Gutierrez exceds himself again, just like in The Book of life.

Anyway, aside from that, this about Maya who is meant to be the princess of Teca, but like her brothers, her father and once her mother, she wants to be a warrior instead, and be part of a certain profecy that is meant to fight and end with the monsters from the underworld who are at war with humans in the overworld.

Because this looks so astoundingly polished, fluid and also it's 3D animation, many people (myself included) thought it was a movie and it was going to be, well, another Brave kind of deal. It's not. It is really not, this is more well constructed and darker, tho Maya was kind of a brat sometimes but I think that's part of the whole point with her and well, her story.

I really liked the characters and their stories, tho Jorge Guiterrez gets kinda same-y with his female protagonists and ESPECIALLY children, all character design is GORGEOUS! The many details, the twisted remarkable Guiterrez style twists and the exagerated shapes on the characters... it's just really good and I especially liked the setting, colors and the many MANY influence of ancient mesoamerican cultures, and being one of the first series having this theme, it really, really did justice, if it wins a prize or whatever for visual development it deserves it.

Story telling wise, it was cool and interesting, some parts went too fast and not knowing what's going on, but everything else was fine, I just was annoyed I didn't really see how Maya and Zatz got finally together after winking many times and each other, I was like wait what they're together now? sheeeesh! And also I counted a total of 7 pairings in 9 episodes, all straight, damn, that amount of romance.

But on and all it's good, I really liked it, go give it a watch!

Metal Family:

This one's more obscure and it's a Youtube series as well, but it should be more popular like Hazbin Hotel is. The premise is simple at first, it's a Russian webseries about a family that like's metal, like it says in the title! It follows the life of Glam, Victoria, Dee and Heavy, the members of the family, all with different stories, personalities and intentions.

Animation? It's made with flash and so it can look cheap, but it's no doubt the animators really worked hard on it, it looks smooth, expressive and fluid! very good!

The character design is also good, and they did a great job of not making the kids just look like a combination of their parents. More on that, LOVE their dynamic! The smartness and uncanniness of Glam, the loud and strong traits of Vicky, and how it passed to both of their sons, who are their own people in the end.

Scenery and storytelling sometimes gets uninteresting and slow on the first episodes and well voice acting was a lil weird sometimes, but later on, on the final episodes of the first season, storytelling and voiceacting PEAKED, (a bit of a warning before continuing, this part of the series might contain dark themes like abuse, so, you're adviced!) it almost made me cry, thank god Glam left his abusive ass father and is with the Metal Family now, as he said himself, "I chose a family, one without you." It's probably cuz the budget of the series got bigger and bigger as it got more popular, but it's well deserved.

I watched the official English dub as I know very little Russian, and it was great as well! Both the Russian original and English dub sound amazing.

And I really like how the Metal Family series did an animated Q&A with each of the family members and how they changed lipsync on the english version to fit, that was really cool!

Overall, recommend it 100%, very very good, check it out!

[escape-from-twinkov]

pic goes immaculately hard the KA-52 is such a unique heli I fucking love it. Love the juxtaposition of old tech with newer ones poor lil i-16 in the back is essentially the old decrepit babushka that screams at her grandchildren for breaking plates.

5. can you play any instruments?

🎅🏼

#26

Good morning Santa!!!!! I did manage to get out of bed yesterday but I’m sure by tomorrow I’ll be bed-ridden again because today I have to go get my Covid booster, which I hear can be tough on the body.

I love the idea of your nana just keeping track of every grandkid’s login information for whatever site they happened to use. I’m also really glad you got as much of a kick out of bananny Wagner as I did bc I thought I was gonna piss myself laughing when I first found it.

So recently, I’ve been listening to a lot of artists suggested/recommended by the boys, and other artists I find from those artists. For example, I’ve been listening to a lot of Hozier, Stephen Stills (more often CSN&Y), and Jim Croce, and a lot of classic rock like Quiet Riot, Van Halen and Styx. I’ve been really having fun delving into music that has been well loved for years that I’m unfamiliar with. With the exception of Hozier and Greta I’m really not listening to a lot of modern music at the moment, which has been really cool since moving to a major city, kind of feels like a juxtaposition to listen to John Denver while staring at the manhattan skyline you know?

My two favorite colors are purple and green, but I really only like the very light shades or very dark shades of both colors. Like the pastels and the jewel tones. I’m not into the generic “this is green” green, do you know what I mean?

My personal style is tricky because I’m not spending a ton of time lately outside of my apartment, so right now my style is just comfortable and cozy loungewear. I suppose I haven’t really developed a personal style yet, I never know what to say for questions like this. I’m really more of a simple dresser, I like staple pieces I can wear a bunch of different ways. But the problem with that is I can never personally justify buying high quality staple pieces that can withstand wear. So long story short, I’m workin on it.

I am the most absolute textbook cancer sign you’ll ever meet. Like the logical part of my brain doesn’t want to believe in astrology, but I’m just such a fucking cancer that it’s hard to really discount it. Both my moon and rising signs are in Aquarius, and I actually have had a lot of Aquarius friends in the past.

Okay, let me walk you through my personal instrument timeline. So when I was really little (like under 10) my mom had my brother and I in piano and violin lessons. But then I’m pretty sure by the time we were 10 those stopped (to be fair, that was around when the recession hit). Then I learned recorder in elementary school like everybody else and when it came time to sign up for band and pick an instrument, I chose clarinet because it was similar to recorder. Then I played clarinet in band for four years, I even played bass clarinet for a year because the school had one and you really play it the same as a normal clarinet it’s just bigger and jankier.

Around this time I also decided I wanted to learn bass guitar. I distinctly remember not wanting to learn guitar because in my head basically everyone knew how to play guitar and I wanted to be ~different~ so I borrowed a bass and a beginners book from the school. My dad was ecstatic, it was then that I learned he used to play bass in college (when was he gonna tell me that if I never independently showed interest? The world may never know). BUT what happened was I came home one weekend from a Girl Scout camping trip and my mom had randomly bought me an acoustic guitar. She said she assumed that was what I really wanted to play but I think she did it because 1) she has a heart condition that gets really bothered by bass notes and 2) full disclosure my dad didn’t have the healthiest relationship in alcohol back in the day and I’m sure she thinks this relates to the kind of world a bass player would be in.

Regardless, I was pressured to switch to guitar. And I hated it. There was something about the strings on the guitar she got me that made them terrible for beginners, even the guy I was getting lessons from told me to get it re-stringed. I had to press down so hard for any noise to come out that it made it really difficult to switch chords. And then I gave up when I found out nearly every song I wanted to learn to play has a barre chord in it. My fingers were just NOT callousing and I didn’t like how everybody in the world it seemed could hear me when I was trying to practice. Sometimes I wonder if I had kept with the bass if I would’ve gotten good at it, I made a lot more progress a lot more quickly than I did with guitar. But alas.

I mentioned skiing before, but the only sport I kept with through high school was Track & Field. I was a thrower, my events were shotput and discus. I wasn’t particularly great at it, but I wasn’t doing it to be the best on the team. The track and field team was like a massive family, it consisted of roughly the same group that jumped together from Cross Country Running to Nordic Skiing to Track, with the same coach running all three. I absolutely hate running, especially the way they do it, so track was really the only one I could stick with. But the vibes were unmatched I miss that squad.

Okay this question stopped me for a second. A hidden talent? I’m just gonna list of random things I’m good at. Like I said, I have camp counselor experience, so if you know what boondoggle is I’m a master at that (including and especially starting them off). I’m also pretty good at joint rolling but only the ~cool people~ get to find that out when they see it in action. I’m not sure if this counts but I’m also really good at memorizing lyrics. Pretty much every song I like I know most of the words to, if not all. Even if I haven’t heard a song in like a decade, if I learned the words once at some point in my life they will come running back to me.

I love you Santa I can’t wait until after Christmas when I’m DMing you excitedly every time I get a new record. I hope your Jacob Thomas Tuesday goes smoothly friend.

worst outfits of the boys?

ALRIGHT !!! ALRIGHT let’s get into it....as always i saved the best (worst?) for last,

panic:

first of all, ryan ross has NEVER missed!!! never !!! he always had the cleanest fits - in fact, he was the ONLY bitch who ever fully committed to the era’s styles, and he was also the only one who was rly pushin the fashion boundaries. i cannot think of one bad ryan look, but i do have one spencer one in mind that haunts me and it’s that weird plaid suit thing he wore to the grammys??? jon never dressed particularly well either tbh but he just didnt give a shit so i commend him. br*ndon had some trash ass fits esp in 2008, including that weird khaki suit jacket.....i’d include a pic but its just so giant and i dont want his face on my blog so enjoy spencer’s look

fall out boy:

okay none of fob were ever rly Dressing i gotta b honest,,, there’s certain recurring elements that rly put the fucks to them fashion-wise tho, and off the top of my head are joe’s sandals and patrick’s ugly as shit hats. they were all notorious for garbage ass looks on the red carpet, too ?????? i hate it here. this photo from 05 haunts me

also fuck this fit

cobra starship: 

i think it’s unfair to judge cobra for their fashion because it was sorta their Thing to be trashy and tacky, and i cant hold that against them. suarez dressed the best, and even that is a stretch. they were really good at color coordinating tho so ig i gotta give them that leeway but here’s a good photo showcasing some of the ugliest shit. also i rly like when they’re doing like an Official Event and everyone’s dressed nice but gabe (not this photo but has happened multiple times!!!!!)

the academy is:

any outfit in which carden had his toes out, first of all. william has had some trashy fits too and the one that’s really forefront in my mind is the vest over the tank top and the boot cut jeans AND the sandals, shown in this photo. butcher’s pink scarf also fucking sucked tbh but overall i may dare to say tai was one of the better dressed on the scene, esp after 2006

my chemical romance:

this is where the dumpster fire really ignites. it’s really not a fashion statement, but it IS a fucking deathwish. these other bands could simply use the times as an excuse, but mcr continuously entrenched themselves in terrible outfits and committed so many fashion faux pas that i couldn’t possibly list them all (particularly our usual culprits, the way brothers) i will not roast the band as a whole for Any concept outfit units, such as the revenge suits/bulletproof vest/etc, tbp jackets, or danger days, BUT there were many horrendous standalone looks that we are forced to bear witness to

i want to start formally with the leather jacket that gerard destroyed with his sweat, from 2002 - 2005? i believe. i have posted some unfortunate photos of it on this blog before and i will not clog this post up w more, but it exists and it’s disgusting. it’s truly in a league of its own.

i’m in possession of a pretty terrible image from what i believe to be 2005 at the mtv video music awards. every person looks so god damn awful, i dont even know where to start. frank’s jacket is so ill-fitting he probably stole it off a dead man, gerard’s in this whack ass velvet?? suit??? MIKEY’S SHIT IS SO WRINKLED are u fucking kidding me ....bob looks like a rejected member of pawn stars and tbh ray’s the only one holding this band together at this point

i cannot sleep at night knowing they truly went out like this, but let us continue. i must add the teal roots photo, that certain one, because i am doomed to remember it. the unique and horrifying combination of the neon teal roots, the foundation flashback, the red eyeshadow undoubtedly applied with grimy fingers, the shitty blazer with oddly placed sweat stains, the ugly tie....it’s a fucking DEATHWISH!!!!!! babey!!! what the fuck

i can only include three more photos and my rep would be ruined if i didnt add THIS nightmare. another mtv event, another sad outfit. ray’s outfit sux but being next to these freaks makes him look marginally better, but i wont forgive that skinny tie. gerard’s giving us very “bilbo baggins went to maragritaville in the winter” chic with that putrid tropical shirt and too-small jacket, and mikey??? is avril lavigne??? the juxtaposition of mikey’s huge tie and ray’s tiny one is so fucking jarring, and also his vest looks AWFUL 

i feel like i havent been harshing frank’s mellow much, but do not believe for one second that he hasn’t been dressing like shit since the dawn of time. nowadays he wears like 5 layers of shirts just to get his mail, but in the heyday of mcr he was Never presentable. the skeleton apron??? the jeans?? i cant even continue my life energy has been sapped from me

[madisonrooney]

hi it's your secret santa! first of all HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! i hope you have a wonderful day! how are you celebrating, if you are at all? safely, i hope! either way i hope you manage to find a way to have a great day full of love!! consider my christmas gift a belated birthday gift as well lol. anyway i loved reading your last answer, it was so thoughtful and sweet. i realized after reading that i barely know anything about dove lol so follow up q: what about dove makes you love her so much?

sorry for the late response! the last couple days have been v busy and ive been super tired and dissociative on top of it so i made a point to save this bc i wanted to give it my full attention!

first of all thank you!! i was going to do a virtual meet and greet with one of my favs from jersey boys but he got confused about timezones so we rescheduled but were doing it next week! then i went to a virtual walt disney family museum panel, had pizza for dinner and watched some liv and maddie, my mom made a cookie cake that we ate while watching the grinch musical, and then some friends and i watched the jersey boys movie together over skype!

im so glad you enjoyed reading my last answer! and oof thats another loaded question (i love it tho)

- like i said when first talking about what drew me to her and liv and maddie, a big thing is just how much passion and love she puts into her characters. ofc she puts passion into every character she plays, but its the passion she puts into characters like liv, maddie, and mal that means the most to me. that goes back to the fact that ive dealt with a lot of negativity directed towards me for enjoying disney channel, and then you have dove out here saying “yah im a teenager/twenty-something who not only respects what theyre doing on disney channel, but puts my all into it” not to mention she even won an emmy for playing liv and maddie in season 4! i hope that passion and talent has started to change the conversation about disney channel, and tbh i think it has at least a bit.  ofc, none of this is to say other people her age acting on disney channel arent talented and passionate, but idk, something about her has always stood out to me. i find her to be more animated and expressive than most. it can be hard for me to read emotions in live action movies and shows, so thats been really important for me. not to mention she was not only playing the lead but TWO lead characters on a four season show with distinct personalities but also subtle similarities. AND the main character in the biggest DCOM franchise in years for 5 years running now. PLUS the fact that there was a period where those were both happening at the same time. she was only 16 when she started all this and hadnt even had any big roles prior to it!! she had a lot of responsibility so it was amazing to see her not only pull it off, but excel at it.

- i just love like....her aesthetic?? shes always seemed to be a very old soul to me, into old jazz music and poetry and stuff like that. its just very charming. and for her to have that aesthetic on top of being a disney channel actress is a fascinating juxtaposition.

- this is kind of sappy and it gets tiring to hear it said over and over again but that doesnt mean it isnt true: i love how transparent she is about her struggles with mental health issues, trauma, and such. she has been for a long time but even more so over the last year or two. no shade to anyone else, but a lot of actors dont really give you a look into their personal lives, they just share and promote their product. im not saying theres anything wrong with that, its good to know what youre comfortable sharing, ive just felt all the more close to her with her being as open as she is, especially as someone who has gone through trauma myself, albeit different from hers.

- kind of connected to that, i love how important spreading kindness, positivity, and love is to her. thats another thing thats been said a million times but still, its very important to me.

for example. she’ll randomly tweet things like “i love you” a lot. im one to always think of the thought process that goes on behind whatever someone posts, texts, etc., bc personally i put a lot of a thought into pretty much anything i say or do before i put it out there publicly, probably bc of my social anxiety. even tho its a simple statement and takes her a couple seconds to post, she still had to have the thought “i want to remind my fans that theyre loved” or something along those lines. and she has this thought FREQUENTLY. to just randomly get a notification every few days or weeks or so of her saying something like that is just very heartwarming to me.

the reason i connected with miley so much when she helped me through my initial trauma was bc it felt like even if no one loved me, she loves her fans, thus she loves me. thus the person i love and admire the most loves me. even if its only one person, it can be enough. it was for me at the time. i feel that same way with dove. when she came into my life, i didn’t feel as unloved, but her love was still helpful to me.

- of course i need to specifically talk about her kindness in person too. dont get me wrong (ive been saying that a lot havent i lol), i totally and completely loved her long before i met her, but naturally, i love her 10x more after the experiences ive had getting to know her in person.

i could go ONNNNNNN about the experiences ive had with her, and i have lol, and if you already heard me ramble about this in the server i apologize, but the most important thing ive taken away from every encounter ive had with her is this: she always goes the extra mile. she always goes out of her way to make people feel special. what i mean by that is she could say/do HALF as much as she has when meeting me and i would still leave over the moon feeling loved. you can tell she does this in excess bc she really truly means it and cares about people like me, she doesnt have any kind of ulterior motive and isnt just going through the motions doing whats asked of her, she simply cares about me and the rest of her fans. some examples - the first time we met, i was sobbing (lol) and she hugged me for a really long time, rocking me back and forth, brushing my hair with her thumb, calling me sweetheart and honey. she even started to tear up a bit herself. - a couple months later, i went to my first liv and maddie taping. i was preparing to reintroduce myself (i looked a little different bc id been cosplaying as maddie the first time i met her) and ofc when preparing myself, i fantasized pretty heavily as i usually do and pictured myself showing her the pic of us on my phone, her gasping, jumping out of her chair screaming, and hugging me, thinking that was probably way more than i was gonna get. that is EXACTLY what happened. then she went on to tell me how my costume made her whole weekend. things like this would continue to happen where i would set the bar impossibly high and not only would she meet it but she’d exceed it. - our usual interaction from there on would start with her face lighting up when she saw me, her calling me some kind of cute name like love or baby, and then hugging me without me even having to initiate it. - when i saw her in mamma mia, i didnt know when id be seeing her again afterwards after pretty consistently getting to see her for 2 years, so i wanted to make sure we got some kind of closure. at the stage door, i reminded her how much she meant to me and just expected like an “aww i love you too” or something back, but she said “you are an angel in my life” and i will never forget that. obvs, i havent told her ALL the details about what she and her characters mean to me but like...she can tell. she can tell if im in a homemade maddie costume sobbing into her arms that theres something there, and shes VERY appreciative of that. - i thankfully got to see her at a meet and greet a few months later and every time i thought i should get going cuz i didnt want to hold the line up, she would just open her arms for another hug. speaking of being appreciative, she even said “thank you for being such a supportive fan.” as i left, i turned around to say one last goodbye. i made sure she wasnt with the next fan yet and yelled out “bye!” and she yelled back “I LOVE YOU!!” and blew me a kiss. again, its the little things. - i saw her at a small panel in new york a few months after that. she walked in the room when the lights were down as they were playing a clip, she quietly waved hi to everyone, then saw me and loudly whispered HI BABY!!! and stopped on her way to the stage to give me a hug. (then she looked at me from the stage and asked which way i thought she should cross her legs for the interview lol) - sometimes when she sees im next in line, shell give me a knowing smile or whisper “hi baby!!” or something like that. she saw me in the crowd after clueless and seemed to make a point to come to me last bc she knew wed be talking for a while, which we did. she even told me she’d seen me in the audience, asking if i was in the front on the left, which i was.

even all that is still just scratching the surface. weve “known” each other for 5 years now and every time i think she’s done the most she can do, she outdoes herself again. not to mention when im at these events, i see her treat all the fans she meets with all of that kindness too. naturally all of this has made me love her all the more.

- finally, lets just be honest here..........................shes REALLY fucking hot.

[talkingismylifewrites]

18 19 and 22 ! love your work and hope you're doing ok!

18. what is a line/scene you’re really proud of? give us the dvd commentary for that scene.

Crouching down, he began to shove the photos back into the box, careful not to bend them or touch the glossy finish. But the moment he picked up the first handful, he stopped, staring in confusion down at his own face squished next to John's. He flipped it over to the next photo, this time just him grinning at the camera. The next, John, looking rather displeased, Roger's hand holding his cheeks tightly. Next. The two of them curled up on a couch, their heads bent together in sleep. Next. John from behind, but in Roger's fur coat. Roger hugging John. Roger and John drunk at a party, winking at the camera over glasses of beer. The two of them eating orange slices, showing off orange rind teeth. John asleep on the bus. Roger attempting to pour tea. John tuning his bass. Roger in John's lap. John laughing while Roger wrapped an arm around his waist. John and Roger. John and Roger. John and Roger.

John and Roger kissing. Roger was half on John, one hand threaded through John's hair, the other tight on his waist. It wasn't a kiss between friends, or even a kiss you'd give as a joke. It was a kiss. One between lovers.

Roger dropped the photos.

In the films, your memory comes back in some dramatic fashion full of tears and pain and a sequence of someone shaking apart while they clutch at their brain, agonized by the rush of memories. The amnesiac panics and flutters, weeping as it all comes back, hitting them over and over like a tsunami of pain and memory.

It was not like that for Roger. For Roger, they returned with a half sigh and the relief of finally coming home. It was like the missing piece that had been gone for so long finally snapped back into place, the key slipped into the lock, his compass finally pointed north. He picked up the photograph and his head broke through the surf, and finally, finally, he could breathe again. Out of the water and onto the shore. Between one second and the next, he felt whole after months and months of feeling empty and broken, searching for everything he had lost.

Roger rocked back onto his heels, collapsing on to the ground in muted shock as it all came back. Everything from their fights to their relationship to every damn dream he’d had and written off as a fantasy. John—his John—not Dominique. All of it, everything he had thought was true was wrong. It was all wrong, all of it. Dominique was wrong. Just being John's friend was wrong. Not loving John was wrong.

"Holy shit," he whispered, crouching down to trace the photo with shaking fingers. Freddie had taken it, in '79. They'd been over at Brian's for dinner and Scrabble, stretching it late into the night. Roger had been complaining about it being late and wanting to go home, but John had been winning and didn't want to forfeit. Roger had crawled into his lap and murmured all the dirty things he was going to do him when they got home. After one particularly filthy suggestion, John had given in and kissed him, licking deep into his mouth just long enough for Freddie to snap the pic, before throwing in his tiles and dragging a smug Roger home.

Because they still lived together. Not as friends, as partners. Boyfriends, lovers, paramours, as John's Kept Man. They were together, had been since January 21, 1978—Roger had missed their anniversary. He'd forgotten it, laid up in bed and sickly and John had never said anything.

"John," Roger murmured, dropping the picture again. "John!"

He had to call John, he had to see him. Scrambling to his feet, he practically flew out of the bedroom—their bedroom—and down the stairs, stumbling as he skipped steps in his haste to get to the phone, to get to John. What would he say? It's me; I remember; I love you; how could I ever forget you?

so i’ve definitely spoken about this being my favorite passage, but i can’t deny that its probably the section i’m most proud of. first of all, it was one of the first scenes ever written. for dyldyl; right off the bat i knew exactly how i wanted the reveal to go (although slightly different in some parts, instead of it being a photo of john and roger kissing, it was going to be a letter roger had written to john that discussed a morning bj in exchange for putting away the laundry). i wanted roger’s initial reaction to the revelation that he’d forgotten to be confusion that melted into sheer joy, and then for it to melt into horror and hurt. 

i also wanted to show that the act of remembering itself is not traumatic, in fact, it’s welcomed and almost as though roger can finally relax. roger remembers and he’s fine, he can breathe again, he’ll find john and be reunited with the man that he loves. 

i also very sneakily reference this particular scene many many times throughout john’s chapters as a kind of juxtaposition of who they are. john spends his nights sitting in the closet staring at their photos and remembering what they once had; so does roger. john also runs down the stairs the same way as roger in his haste to get to him, he skips steps, grabs the banister, spins himself around, he’s leaping down the steps to get to him. 

and, there are some mirrored references to john’s hurt in the same way as roger’s hurt. john’s hurt by the fact that roger has forgotten, roger is hurt by the fact that john remembered. the two of them are two sides of the same coin, and roger regaining his memory puts them both on equal if shaky ground. 

furthermore, the act of hiding the photographs is the kiss of death for both john and roger. for john, tucking away the photographs (which he has admitted are mostly his; john is the keeper of their relationship not just in pictures but in memories as well) is the sign that things are at their lowest, that the relationship he knew and cherished has ended. for roger, the hiding of the photographs is the very same, only for very different reasons. one was done purposefully, the other was done to them. 

i like to think that i managed to get the right sort of mood and expression of emotions right for something like this, and that i did roger’s memories justice. 

19. who is the easiest/hardest character for you to write about? why?

john is actually really hard for me, which is surprising because i’m literally writing four chapters from his pov that come in at 157k, plus however long chapter seven will be. i think it just takes me a while to get into his mindset? and sometimes i’ll write something that’s too ooc. john is so reserved in the sense that he holds himself really taught, and when he does break its an explosion of emotion and sort of overwhelming. he’s funny and witty and rude and so strong? but he’s also reserved. i tend to write to extremes, and that doesn’t commute with john. if it were roger dealing with john’s amnesia, it would be lots of anger and fury and tears and an overwhelming need to be supported, while john is kinda more ‘i’m going to hold it all right here in my chest until i die please excuse me while i go lick my wounds in private’. so it takes me a while and a couple of rewrites to get that tone exactly perfect. hence why john’s chapters have taken me so much longer (that, and the length). 

i also really struggle with freddie’s motives and voice, which surprises me because i think i’m the most like freddie? (okay, if freddie and roger had a baby and it was tag team raised by crystal and john). i actually tried writing a fic from freddies pov completely and i’m not gonna lie i really struggled with it. i think its because freddie is such an oxymoron of a personality. outward he’s very bright and brash and very social, constantly in your face with who he is and how he behaves, but internally he’s very shy and also reserved. his public image is very different from that of his private, and it can be hard to juggle the two of them. if you make the mistake of making him that brash and loud person when the time calls for his quiet side, you can lose the character in the blink of an eye. in order for me to understand his character and the voice i want for him, i have to try a little harder and write a little slower. 

it’s easy to make freddie just be like ‘darling’ and ‘oh how very dare you!’ and all other sorts of platitudes, but that wasn’t him. roger has said he was very shy and insecure, and that he put on an act, which is easily seen in certain interviews or when he’s been filmed without his knowledge. so finding that balance between devastatingly funny and extroverted freddie with his more introverted side can be hard. especially because the very last thing i’d ever want to do is make him a caricature of who he was. 

the easiest pov for me is roger because i basically just think: is this how a gold retriever raised in a frat house with access to cocaine would behave?? and if the answer is yes then i know it’s roger. if no, then it’s john. if fuck yeah, where’s the booze? it’s crystal. 

22. have you cried while writing a fic?

yes, but only because i was so frustrated over it. never because what i wrote was sad, because if i’m thinking it, i can compartmentalize it. i’ve cried reading fics, tho

[dreaminterlude]

i want to know what ur qualms are with their styling for blue flame 👀

first of all dear rae, thank u so much for ur patience i know this is kind of belated but im finally sitting down at my computer so we can dissect this in detail and this is going to be way longer than it has to be so here we goooooooooo

OVERVIEW

i’d like to say that most of astro looks great with their styling, in both the book and story versions. i really love the juxtaposition of both concepts, and i think the tones work really really well for the vibe they’re going for, which, as i’ve stated, is this mature vibe we’ve been seeing more and more of, with that magical astro charm that makes them so special. the warmth of the book version combined with the coolness of the story version is really really nice and i love the idea of it

BOOK VERSION

i think literally all of them except for eunwoo look fantastic. eunwoo….looks alright here but i am not a fan of this wet dog look that people have been calling a baby mullet. this is especially distressing given how much i love him but i just feel like….he’s not really hard to style and they could have done something simultaneously interesting and elegant like they did with the rest of the boys and they just didn’t. mj? STUNNING. jinjin looks so freaking handsome i love his look. binnie looks like an angel. rocky. god rocky has stolen this comeback he’s probably been my fave. sanha also looks like he’s suddenly grown into this handsome intellectual and i’m like but where’s baby?

again, 10/10 for the 5/6 members here. where’s the loml? first of all why is he holding the scarlet letter. fine let’s ignore that i don’t even care honestly. it’s the hair rae, it’s the hair that kills me. maybe they could have styled a mullet better on him, but it could also be a camera angle thing bc he looks really good here and honestly i really dig it but maybe it’s the model in him coming out MAYBE

wow i’m staring at this photo again and honestly it’s so simple and he looks so good but maybe it’s also bc u can’t really see the mullet i’m so annoying

ladies n gentlemen we are getting to the crème de la crème am i annoying you yet haha!!! again each and every boy looks unbelievably stunning which then begs the question, maryam why are you being so fucking annoying and rude and unfair about this comeback — well i’m not done yet!!!! and maybe i am MAYBE — but eunwoo first of all why put something on him that is NOT his size at all so it makes him look like a bag while attempting to make him look sexy (?????????????), why is he crouching lower and what is up with his HAIR i will not get over the hair i am upset about it

but the rest of them. my god look at rocky and mj???????? this is the superior look on him by far compared to the story version but we’ll talk about that in a SEC

they all look good and dandy here. i have no real qualms here. jinjin looks like he’s coming to SMASH my house and i’m about to let him. i love these boys.

STORY VERSION

they all look good here, overall, seem to match the themes with each other. i think jinjin/mj were superior in the book version as far as these photocard pics go. i have no idea why eunwoo is making that face it’s so annoying to me. he’s done sexy so many times and i just don’t think this is it not that he even has to be sexy he could have done anything really but i’m not a fan. it’s cool in the sense that he looks like a vampire i guess but it’s not a look that i personally gravitate towards (this is, and i cannot emphasize this enough) so subjective and obviously just how i feel about these things). rocky. my god. stunning. academy award. sanha has announced to the world that he has grown up and he is an adult damnit so treat him like one!!! i will not but nice try. bin’s face just makes me miss him even more :(

ok the top half of mj, i’m really digging. the hair is working (i wish his hair was longer for these pics, the whole universe knows that mullet mj is superior) but his pants make his torso look smaller and i hate the boots but maybe he’s coming back from gardening the now DEAD flowers from all light era idK. rocky (i’m sobbing now). eunwoo………….obviously the hair is better imo but the angle that this is taken…i’m not a fan. is the back cut meant to be sexy? idk i’m not feeling anything really?

and this here is the issue i have with what they’re trying to do with him, i think: they’re trying really hard to make him sexy, like they always do, but it doesn’t necessarily always suit him bc i don’t know if he necessarily wants to be sexy. like there are definitely moments that he does look that, like some of the kswiss shoots or even his magazine shoots where he really kills the game, but it doesn’t seem like…….it’s being forced on you really? idk for some reason, for ME, this comeback has kind of been shaping him into something that he might……not be. idk. i think with this pic tho they could have shot it at a better angle. i think for me it’s not only the stylists but also the photographer. maybe i’m not being fair, idk. i think the looks have grown on me more and more, but they didn’t make me necessarily happy or excited

all excellent except that i really hate what they did with mj’s outfit bc they just make him look a bit stockier which is annoying because he’s really willowy and dainty and elegant and they could have brought that out and they didn’t. eunwoo looks good here. i really like his outfit here. jinjin’s pants are too long…..i think a lot of it could have been fixed if they sized them appropriately? maybe i’m over analyzing. rae if you’re still reading this……..

i think this is the one photo where they all look good to me. i think mj’s pants here don’t stand out as much because they get cut off at the bottom and the picture is angled so his torso is accentuated more. i LOVE eunwoo’s oufit, and i really think it has to do with the fact that it’s fit to his body and they taper his waist which does wonders for him. i hate when they drown them with oversized clothes!! jinjin looks like he’s waiting for me to come home so he can discuss the report card that came in the mail and the call he got from my teacher when he was at work

CONCLUSION / TL;DR

i think from the m/v teaser they all look good and really cool, which is an indication that they don’t look necessarily the same as their photoshoot. i think…..also it’s nice to see their updates on twitter so we get to see the “real” them, and see how different that is from this very staged thing, which is, again, a very cool concept, but i think i’m gonna need a bit more convincing (and i know they’ll deliver) from their m/v + music show stages. i think my main problem was eunwoo’s hair/”sexiness” factor and the way they tried styling myungjun in the story version. maybe i’m being overly critical…..but since eunwoo is like….my ult, i feel like personally attached to this. but at the end of the day, it’s not that deep and i know my perception will probably change when the album/music video drops, and honestly……..they really can almost pull of anything. like maybe eunwoo CAN MAYBE pull off a mullet if his stylist actually did it justice. idk. but i’m not team cha mullet.

hello, this is do kyungsoo

i hope you don’t mind being texted out of the blue but my mother showed me a picture of your shout out for me (on the ‘instagram’ social networking service)

my apologies for acknowledging the post so late but i had no idea it even happened since i don’t really do social media-

i am grateful for your support and wish to properly thank you for your kindness

therefore, i am forwarding to your email a high quality photo of my cat when she was a only a month old

i got her a few weeks after meeting you, actually

in this photo she is posing with some sunflowers i bought for the apartment. i think the yellow of the flowers contrast well to the grey of her eyes and make the pink padding of her paws exceptionally soft looking

anyway, i also wanted to thank you for cooking for a week after our little run in those months ago. consider this an official invitation for dinner at my place so i can return the favour

if you want

and if you have time

< ✉ : mr. penguin >

» hello do kyungsoo, this is park chanyeol » i have received your correspondence and thought i might reply post haste » ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ » why are you so formal? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ i practically lived with you for a week ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ » 헉!!!! kyungsooo used baby kitten!!! it’s super effective!!!! » does she have a name? can i meet her~? » ah yes the juxtaposition in the photo is reminiscent of early rene magritte works i don’t know what i’m talking about i just googled that. cool pic tho » whoo~ i’d love to come for some grub!!! » i mean *ahem* i dutifully accept your formal invitation for supper at your humble abode

@corragain replied to your post:

[like a chameleon! different face, i guess, for a different situation. whichever earns the best outcome, in a sense? or gives her the best standing point/point of control. it’s really interesting with all the, i guess, juxtapositions? like, she would die for x or y, but would also backstab. and her desire for control but fearing those in control! but also… i also fear huge, huge things. like pics of whales tho they cute. ships. i h8. relatable.]

[i really like the opposites... like can be morally gray. manipulative, needs control. but also wants a cure and would sacrifice herself for the greater good. *bangs table* GOOD CONTENT]

yes exactly like a chameleon!!!! YES!!!!! god pls marry me bc u get it bro. YOU GET IT. when i played nv that was the option i always picked (the nice one) because i HATED fighting people and seducing people was easier to get through the game and i was like 'okay. what would a person like this be like in reality' and thus. will smith pose @ courier six. she’s very hypocritical but i think that makes her more realistic because that’s just...people. people are complicated and weird and make you go ‘why are you like this? that doesn’t make any sense’ and they make mistakes and u know. etc.

also like, kaj doesn’t have a good basis in life (childhood) and i think everyone underestimates.....how much.....that will ruin your basis of being a person? or just trauma in general and how it will heck you up forever. kaj got two lessons from her childhood: one) that no one else can be trusted to be in control, only you, because they will inevitably hurt you if they have control, and two) everyone is lying all the time and that’s just the world and you have to lie too. and if she lived anywhere else she might learn hey, that’s not actually true, but unfortunately the mojave / wasteland does kind of work that way and it only validates her thinking, even though she’s internally good and not necessarily bad, just reacting to the lessons she’s been taught. it’s a sad way of living but it’s fun to write sadkfsdjk

ALSO YEA ME TOO big things are interesting but scary.....ESP IF ITS UNDERWATER? BC IT CAN BE HUGE? FUCK THAT. GOODBYE. NO. theres a whole subreddit dedicated to large things underwater, i forget the name, but it straight up ruined my life and now im traumatized. the two things that got me when i was younger were the kraken scene in pirates of the caribbean and the trex scene in jurassic park. TRAUMATIZED !

Princess is Hamu, or at least her reincarnation (part theory)

Minor spoiler warning (about how the PQ2 cast feels about the PT in PQ2), will be marked, at the VERY end, with lots of space before and after if you want to miss it.

Ok with Princess showing up I noticed some interesting similarities between her and Hamuko. Under the cut cause of pictures/length

First off it’s the color scheme, yes I know her hair is reddish, but they also aren’t consistent with her hair and eyes (funny cause people made a stink when I said Makoto stole Hamuko’s hair and eyes cause they both have brown hair and they were like “NO IT’S AUBURN! SHE HAS REDDISH-ER HAIR” and now that Princess has red hair y’all are sleeping smh, btw her hair was orange for some reason in PQ2 so yeah point still stands, not consistent). Her eye’s flop between red and brown all the time too, even within P3P (same with Goro) so that’s no surprise either. (if you don’t believe me here’s a comparison of FeMC’s ever changing colors)

Plus, tbh, her hair and eyes are very.....reddish-brown in certain shots so color shouldn’t be the deciding rule. (also they both rock the eyelashes, Hamuko is known for rocking eyelashes the most in P3, I guess Soejima didn’t know how to do those till post-P4)

Now let’s look at a few other things, such as the way she stands....it’s very similar:

Her knees tend to angle in and her feet close together. Also:

Very similar pose (also the only time we really see her outside of combat).

I know what you are thinking, I’m crazy, I’m looking too much into animations. But....I’ve always liked looking at the animations and the similarities (like how Yukari, Rise, and Anne have at least one pose where they have legs standing wide apart). And Atlus has shown to pay attention to this detail (as seen with Ren/Goro having Minato/Souji animations) it really feels like they are trying to draw a parallel here as well.

I also found that Princess bare’s a similar resemblance to the P3 Hero and Heroine aka Minty and Hamu’s (as well as Yukari’s, cause Soejima effed up not realizing the Heroine and Yukari were two different characters when he first started apparently 8U) beta design (bottom left one of the second pic to be exact):

There’s a few other things I want to point out that draw a connection, and that’s the title “Royal” and the connection to the FeMC. So like, I know I liked to make the joke (at least to myself) and other FeMC fans did this as well, but we’d say “FeMC isn’t a Princess, but a Queen!” (One reason I’m upset Makoto got that tbh) as it’s a reference to her song Wiping All Out. Now I think you can draw the conclusions to that so I’ll move on.

The last one is....a Theory, but hear me out it involves fall perfectly on the timeline in P5!

So I was very much a stickler for figuring out the P5 kid’s birth dates because of the lack of year in P5 (wow odd sentence there). And there’s something I noticed, Princess is a first year!

(oh would you look at that they have similar lips ah wait focus) So what does that mean, well it means she was born sometime between  April 2nd 2000-April 1st 2001 (follow that link above to find out where I got this), btw Futaba is Feb 19, 2001 (at the time I posted that one post above, we hadn’t gotten the birthday dates yet). 

What year did the Moonlight Bridge incident take place? 1999 according to every word every spoken in P3 (or 2000 if you want to go off Aigis’ birth year in the artbooks and fight game’s loading screen because ahahaha THAT’S NOT AN ISSUE AT ALL ATLUS AND I HAVEN’T BEEN TEARING MY HAIR OUT ABOUT IT AT ALL! ;W;), so...what am I saying? Princess is Hamuko’s reincarnation from the Bridge incident. When Minato was chosen, Hamuko died that night and was reborn a few months later as Princess (which means vice versa happened on Hamuko’s side in P3P). 16ish years later, boom we are in P5. 

So what does this mean? Well 1) I might’ve been right that the other P3MC exists on the other’s timeline even if they aren’t MCs (tho I didn’t consider reincarnation tbh), 2) It’d probably be a great way to capitalize on PQ2 and compare and contrast those two things. 3) It means I get Hamuko again~! :D

As for the voice, which seems a little higher/younger than Hamuko’s, it could be that it’s the same VA just making it higher/younger because she is a year younger than Hamu. Buuuuuuut it could also be a new VA.....not the first time they changed VAs even if it’s for a similar character (DramaCDs state Metis has Labrys’ mother’s face, but she and Labby have different voices, and then Labby/Labby’s mom and Metis have different VAs compared to Rei who is hinted to be the dead mom and alkjsdkl yeah). But I’m not the best with JPN VAs, but it sounds like Marina Inoue imo.

But other than that, yeah that’s what I squeezed out of it.

Oh yeah in relation to PQ2 btw, btw spoiler warning:

________________________________________________________________

In PQ2 the PT only say they are thieves, they don’t explain WHAT they steal in PQ2, thus no one really has an issue with them. Which means they get along, not exactly the hardest hitting game, but that’s fine as long as they utilize the animosity with the Arena games (or in this case, Royal). So yeah that’s why Hamu and everyone is pretty chill with the PT in PQ2. And it’d be a great juxtaposition with Princess if she was the FeMC, since they meet her but it’s not REALLY her (because they met her when she didn’t/wasn’t reincarnated). And it’d be a great time to utilize that connection, esp since she expressed having fun “being like a thief” in the first dungeon.
