So.... what are your thoughts on Ace's UM, if you haven't been asked this already?
sneaky magic for the sneakiest boy
no but really, I think it fits him really well! I had thought his UM would probably involve something kinda sleight-of-handy or pickpockety! and I looooved that it made such a nice loop-around back to episode 1. ❤️ I was. kind of half-expecting him to just run out and punch Riddle in the nose again. but instead this time 'twas he who offed the queen's head! it was great! and he did it while stone-cold terrified out of his mind! because Ace is the only remotely normal or well-adjusted person at NRC and therefore the only one who is like "we're going to literally die, this is super effed up". but he did it anyway!!!! I AM SO PROUD
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 part 12 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 part 12 spoilers#also love how it complements deuce's magic! they are two of a kind ❤️♠️#i do think bet the limit fits the 'uno reverse card' description more though#like...okay they haven't really said much on how joker snatch works#(literally ace went 'we'll talk about it later')#but i think it's not supposed to be inherently retaliatory if that makes sense#the japanese is something like 'put an ace up my sleeve'#which implies to me that it's not really an in-the-moment thing? i think he can steal it and hold on to it for a while probably#like he might be able to snatch it and then use it on someone else later rather than it being reflected back on the original caster#versus deuce's being that he punches you back with your own punch (and/or other various punches he's acquired)#(a connoisseur of fine punches)#i am 100% guessing though so who knows! we will find out later i presume#now the only one left to get their um is grim maybe 👀#(i mean i would also love to see some staff ums HEY TWST THAT WOULD BE COOL)#(but like. narratively speaking and all)#oh and maybe crowley's depending on how plot-important he actually ends up being#what if it turns out nothing's going on with crowley and he's actually completely irrelevant#he tears his mask off and he's just some random dude who has zero idea of what's happening#nobody's been orchestrating shit#everyone's just been getting radioactive poisoning from the stone adeuce replaced in the chandelier back in the prologue#this was all a cautionary tale about getting the blot levels in your school's hvac system regularly checked

what if there was a plague doctor that was so so so cute (and was also secretly a bird themself)
#art#plague doctor#posie#pastel#kawaii#cute#captioned#artists on tumblr#character design#oc#original character#oops! no name yet#halloween#spooky#i made them for merch reasons but i will draw them like i draw my other characters#i worked so hard i got Brainsick from Stress and i had to stop and then also i was busy in Not art ways for once#GIRL I NEED MORE HOURS IN THE DAY#oh uhh character facts. i love skulls and flowers and plague doctors and crows/ravens so i jammed them together#they are an anthro white raven disguised as a plague doctor. bird disguised as bird. nice. you can see their tail though#they use they them. the nonbinary urge to wear a full face mask at all times#that little bird is their Familiar of sorts and it can turn into things. usually a staff or a walking cane i think#the little bird also doesnt have a name. neither of them have names#not from lack of trying i just haven't had time to look yet#edit - THEIR NAME IS POSIE#YKNOW LIKE THE NURSERY RHYME

It is a known thing amongst some circles in Amaurot that if one of these three is present somewhere then they are likely physically attached in some way to at least one of the others
#ffxiv#final fantasy xiv#emet selch#hythlodaeus#azem#hythazemet#misede's art#endwalker spoilers#emet will claim this is bullying but he wouldn't have it any other way#i did originally have his mask on but that thing really does make him look mad (which he probably uses to his advantage)#he can't completely help himself from appearing content when one of his beloveds decides to use him as a pillow

TRYING AGAIN WITH CLEARER WORDING. PLS READ BEFORE VOTING
*Meaning: When did you stop wearing a mask to a majority of your public activities? Wearing a mask when you feel sick or very rarely for specific events/reasons counts as “stopping”
[More Questions Here]
#poll#covid#covid 19#reblog for sample size#I could tag this post ‘environmental storytelling’ cause goddamn#if you reblogged the original please reblog this one#I just want my DATA#hey#excellent deminstration of the scientific process here#needing to correct for confusion on your participants end to get the results you want#can’t fix the tumblr sampling bias but apparently there’s anti-maskers here too#peoples life circumstance can vary so no judgement from me OP on when you stopped#unless you never masked. then I am judging you#like you didn’t even TRY?

A Thousand Lifetimes
Drifter appreciation piece :3
#Hopefully fun to visually explore#tried to stuff in as much of the canon drifter’s lore in here as physically possible#probably missed a few things but that was mostly due to space constraints#just needed a thing to do vibe restoration and I was having fun with one of my favorite brushes#originally just started out as a portrait of him and then it got a bit out of hand as I started messing around with the background#Definitely out of my usual style#its been a long time since I did a strictly lineart focused piece#but I used to do line practices similar to this pretty frequently so its fun to see the difference in my current skill in line#We got uhhhhh recursive angels and tau and wally and the lotus and the void and entrati and duviri/undercroft#and the protoframes as designs on his collar and space and the lisset/ordis and the deal/timeline split and the mask/operator/thrax#and stalker/hunhow and the orowyrms and more narmer stuff and recursive void angels and void flow and as many spirals as I could stick in#and hollvania/techrot and my signature also on his collar and umbra earrings and the black/white motif and yadda yadda you get the picture#far from perfect but I worked on it till my apple pencil died and I'm chilling with how it is now#or... forcing myself to be chill with it and not go back in because its 3 am#warframe#warframe art#warframe 1999#tennocreate#warframe drifter#guardian spiral#warframe fanart

(More) Rain World Pearl Writings
Now with some hit-or-miss doodles I made to visualize the pearls. They might be incredibly compressed idk...
Bicker
Interesting… It is a debate forum on the punitive ruling of a homicide. To thrust an enlightened individual across the cycle was considered abominable.
However, the presiding Just Order decided that the perpetrator embodied “The Remorsive Luminance Within”, and recommended her for temporary exile to a temple.
The discourse over the sentencing is… vulgar, to say the least. Many of my citizens did little else but talk, and thus the political landscape mutated into a frenzy of dozens of quarreling factions.
Most systems were commanded by the dynastic Concepts, so the remaining scraps of governance were subject to vicious competition by these factions. Power changed hands constantly.
The perpetrator was lucky. Had it been any other cycle, the ruling Order would throw her in a sensory deprivation tank or wipe her memory. Or perhaps she would be declared unsalvageable and turned into fodder for ritual combat.
It’s a bit baffling that they rarely just transcended their criminals in a Void Fluid bath instead. Probably because it would defeat the point of their bickering…

Mast
Oh? This contains a very old intellectual offering to the 52nd Great Mind, or the Aetherial Mast west of here. It consists of a very flattering, complex riddle.
Since you’ve been to Five Pebbles, I imagine that you’ve seen those grand towers piercing into the sky. They once formed a communication network between iterators, but a few of them - such as this particular one - are actually older than iterators like me.
After the Void Fluid Revolution, people quickly discovered that if any construct got complex enough, it would gain sapience.
So they threw as much computational power as they could into these towers, and waited. They expected the Aetherial Masts to quickly discover a method to implode the cosmos into the earth, achieving global transcension.
It inevitably failed. The 52nd Great Mind was later connected to a larger, more deliberate construct, and underwent apotheosis to become Looks to the Moon. Which is me!
The first of us iterators were reborn from these Great Minds. Afterward, most Masts were created with an iterator already in control.
Thank you, little creature, for this memento from my distant past.

Brain Tree
It's a treatise on memorykeeping. There’s a crypt nearby here, under Five Pebbles - piles and piles of cabinets, holding the legacies of my departed creators.
Through a complex bombardment procedure, the storage components of a person's mind would grow a twin lump, which contained cherished memories. The "memory fruit" was then removed and placed in a cabinet.
When the crypts began to acquire a hefty pile of cabinets, my creators discovered that all the fruits had united via a network of roots. The formation bulged outward endlessly, breaking into a factory far, far away. The cleanup effort was monumental.
Now, a microbe system continually expels the fruits' boundless energy, and kills them if the defenses fail to keep the fruits from getting too large.
Rare as they are, mass fractal neural emissions are a worrying phenomenon. Please keep your distance if you see a fruit that has grown into a tree.
Don't touch it - I don't know what might happen to you.

#rain world#rain world spoilers#rain world lore#looks to the moon#i didn't make the connection when i was writing it but i think it'd be neat if the mast and brain tree phenomena were somehow related#the first drawing's meant to convey a trial; where the defendant is held in place by an overbearingly large mask chained to the ceiling#the second drawing is the mast undergoing apotheosis. the original Mast being effectively dies and births looks to the moon#incredibly unsubtle fertizinatilization imagery#third drawing comes from the brain tree's drippings#i had the idea that the brain tree's drippings; like voidspawn; are an “emission” of the tree#the tree is afflicted with an excess of life energy and secretes physical matter#while the spiritual excess is in the form of voidspawn#if slugcat touched or consumed the drippings their mind would begin to meld with the ancient memories within#that overflowing excess of life energy is associated with the cycle. perhaps a cause or effect

don't look at me
@the-elder-polls — hello! it is tcs friday, so i wanted to share this piece i made of my ldb road, who enjoys magic, extreme mountain climbing, and never talking about herself, ever. don't worry about it. she's definitely not lying about her name or her age or any significant personal information like that. the mask is just a fashion statement. don't—don't worry about it.
(she's sixteen. she only started going by road because she thought she got carted to helgen for being an enemy of the thalmor, so when hadvar revealed no one had any idea who she was she was so startled she just blurted out the name of the first thing she saw. which was the road. somehow no one has caught on to the fact that this is a really weird and suspicious name for an altmer to have, even if their parents didn't like them very much. she's come to genuinely prefer it over her original given name, but she's been living in horrible teenage anxiety about it for so long that it hasn't once occurred to her that maybe introducing herself like that at this point is not, in fact, lying, and therefore road does not, in fact, have to feel incredibly guilty about it.
she still does, because she's a emotional disaster masquerading as a functional and mentally stable adult, but she'll get there.
…eventually.)
#skyrim#tes#my art#eye contact tw#wanted to play around with a limited color palette and this was the result!#originally this was gonna be traditional but then i got my crayons mixed up while rendering (oops) so now it's digital instead#thank you ms paint you were probably not the most optimal program to use but you were the one i had and you got the job done#i am still never attempting to create anything as complicated as a dragon priest mask in you ever again#or at least not until i no longer see the line tool every time i'm trying to sleep#line tool. my friend. my lover. my nemesis. my oppressor.#will the image of you ever fade from my eyes…#uhhh. obligatory no ai-training disclaimer… apology for anyone who really hates the color blue… i think that's it? that's probably it#okay byeeeeeee

Happy [depending on your timezone belated-] 2nd birthday CCCC!!
I gotta eep now, but I might add some more thoughts tomorrow ^^
For now, thank you CCCC for being my intro to Chonny Jash, and thank you cj for all the awesome community and inspiration and joy you’ve brought me and so many other people. Your music and characters will always hold a special place in my Heart [haha] <33
#chonny jash#cj mind#cj heart#cj soul#cj whole#cj harmonia#chonny’s charming chaos compendium#cccc#what who me? hide Pink Whole propaganda in my cccc anniversary artwork?? never ……#listened to the album in its entirety in order for the first time while making it and oooohhh the Thoughts about it#it was a great experience I feel bad I didn’t do it sooner lmao#anyways yayayayy !! happy birthday cccc <3333#there’s some fun details I added but I’ll probably just elaborate tmrw :]#appalling mustelid tornado#edit: adding some extra little details/thoughts because I’m rested now yay :D#I was careful to make sure to include 2 qualities from each of hms !#heart: blindfold and wings mind: crown and mechanical hands soul: mask and trident :)))#i guess this could count as a Whole/Harmonia design ??? I would call this Harmonia and Not Whole . very much just HMS combined into#one Being but like . not the thing that sings banana man and haiku and hidden in the sand n stuff yknow?#I originally had the colors more organized like . the hands and crown/head area were blue and the masked half of the face was red n stuff#but it didn’t look as good so it’s all just super liquified and blurred together now lol#Im actually pretty fond of how this turned out ^^#all of hms’s colors are included in the background with Soul being the spotlight Mind being the bottom gradient and Heart being the overall#background color#I would give some fancy symbolic explanation for this but I won’t lie . there isn’t any lol it’s just what I thought would work well :’))#if you can find meaning in it that’s great though !!!#I realized earlier today [day after I posted this] I forgot to add line weight to the trident which makes me kinda sad but WE BALL !!!#I would’ve added more symbolism in the patterns but I was super tired and had a headache when I did them 😭#oh and the trident !! it’s totally split up for epic symbolic reasons about the ending of the violence and the relationship between hms#and not because I fucked up the post real bad and couldn’t make it work properly with the trident intact dw about it trust chat

im not that great at analyzing characters and reading into subtext and all that but tumblr has opened my eyes and made me think more about majimas queerness and then i remembered Hannya-Man and its like. its not even subtext the text is hitting you over the head with The Implications.
#rgg#why a hannya out of all the spirits and demons in japanese mythology and noh theater?#not to be dramatic or anything but as someone whos trans masc and cant do anything about it#all the discussion around majimas relationship to gender has been kind of cathartic#im not familiar with how the character is used in pop culture in japan#or how its meaning varies between how its used in plays and colloquially#but from what little i could find your gender doesnt dictate or matter in how you relate to the hannya but still#originally im sure they just chose that tattoo for him since its like one of the most recognizable “oni” masks and it looks cool#but how that tattoos taken a deeper meaning with the more they develop him as a character through the games is really interesting#majimer#majima goro#goro majima#ryu ga gotoku#hannya man#goromi#like a dragon#yakuza kiwami#also unrelated but why did most of the pages i could find talking about the hannya and its symbolism just full of ai slop#noh masks are like. like. the way theyre crafted is usually with very specific features for specific reasons so just generating something#that “looks enough like a hannya mask” feels especially stupid#not that using ai is never NOT stupid but you get what i mean#its like so In Your Face how Stupid it is#i hate ai#i hate it here#yakuza
