I'm sitting very politely and asking if it would be possible to see Adrien akumatised by Viceroy. Even if you don't want to, letting you know I'm insane about all your AUs (and your art in general, alien behaviour Shadow was so cool), you do such amazing work and I am completely normal about it
(Caspases' concept art beloooow)
#dad villain au#marinette dupain cheng#adrien agreste#Caspases#Viceroy#Emelie Agreste#long post#Caspases is the chemical released by a caterpillar in the chrysalis that changes them into a butterfly#and his design is based off of a monarch butterfly's caterpillar :D#son of monarch after all~#anyway tom has been working on this akuma for a longass time#because he was anticipating some stupid ass shit happening to his kid#and its happening to marinette specifically on purpose btw. gabriel did something fucked up with his wish lol

Caitlyn is definitely water, and anyone who says otherwise needs to watch the show again. Caitlyn has changed from a normal, somewhat naive girl, to a vengeful, sad girl, to a girl who takes on the position of leader to protect her people, then turns on Ambessa to protect Vi and Vi's family, and then forgives Jinx, the person who ruined her life and has Vi free her. All this and some people say that she hasn't changed and that she's just like fire because she's a person with power. It's not about power or conquest, it's about destruction. Fire always symbolizes destruction in most cultures, and this suits Jinx very well. Jinx is always destroying and spoiling things and most of the time she does it just for fun, not for a clear purpose. Even if Caitlyn does something bad, her actions are less harmful than the rest of the characters in the show, including Jinx.
Video by: ( @homelanderwuvsyouv2 ) on Instagram
I say this because I saw many comments on this video saying that Caitlyn should be fire and Jinx should be water, and their reason is because Caitlyn is a leader and she was seeking to destroy and invade Zaun, and she never changed, I really was wondering (did these idiots actually watch the show? Or do they watch with they asses not eyes ) because they literally forgot what Caitlyn did to prevent destruction or anything that harmed innocent people, we saw her in episode 1 preventing the invasion and went with a small team to minimize the losses, even when Caitlyn took over the position of leader, she did not use her power to do bad things "like Ambessa and Silco". Caitlyn always opposed Ambessa for using violent methods.
What I love about Caitlyn's character, despite her sadness and anger, she never lost her principles and seeks justice, even in the game Caitlyn is always symbolized as a character who always seeks justice.
I personally think that all the hate towards Cait is, misogyny and homophobia aside for a moment, also due to the fact that she is not a static character. She moves and changes a lot, but she is one of the few characters in Arcane who also CHANGES FOR THE BETTER, who ACTIVELY MOVES to change things. And a lot of people do not understand this, she is not a villain, she is not always in the good side. She does the right things, but she also does the wrong things, the important thing is that at the end she accepts her mistakes, her emotions, and she is willing to sacrifice herself to do better. THIS is what makes her a dynamic character, makes her aware. This is what makes her so resilient and caring and it is really bad to notice how people are so unused to this representation that they criticize her to the point of hating her. She moves and changes a lot, but she is one of the few characters in Arcane who also CHANGES FOR THE BETTER, who ACTIVELY MOVES to change things. And a lot of people do not understand this, she is not a villain, she is not always in the good side.

THIS is what makes her a dynamic character, makes her aware. This is what makes her so resilient and caring and it is really bad to notice how people are so unused to this representation that they criticize her to the point of hating her. She's complex, ofc, but try to do better from every mistake. It is so rare.
So I agree with the rest of the comparisons like Vi symbolizes the earth, and Ekko symbolizes the air, I really love this.
#so yeah#again Caitlyn symbolizes the water#and Jinx symbolizes the fire#and if you have a different opinion and you really think Caitlyn symbolizes fire I hope you give me your perspective.#but please stop saying illogical or stupid things like she's fire just bc she has power or she's fire bc she seeks revenge.#all of this is not the right way to analyze a character at all.#we're talking about a character changing from the beginning of a season to the end.#not a specific period where she/he was behaving a certain way and we're just evaluating her/him based on that. This is completely wrong!#caitlyn kiramman#vi#violet arcane#caitlyn arcane#jinx#jinx arcane#ekko#ekko arcane#caitvi#ekkojinx#piltoversfinest#arcane#arcane season 2#arcane league of legends#arcane netflix#league of legends#fire#air#water#earth#four elements

there is something about magic systems that borrow from a specific craft that makes them so special. Maybe it’s because they feel more tangible and it’s very easy to get swept away by the passion for the craft that is clearly written on every page.
Whether it’s the art based magic system in Witch Hat Atelier. Or the translation based magic system in Babel. Or the alchemy/chemistry based magic system in Fullmetal Alchemist.
The relation to a specific craft makes the characters passion for their magic feel so personal and relatable. Because there is magic in art, in translation, in chemistry and any other craft that people partake in. The magic system becomes a love letter towards creation and everyone who creates and there is nothing world building wise that could be more charming.
#my gf is reading Babel 🤭#I knew they would like the magic system because when I started reading wha I was reminded of all those feelings I had while reading babel#while the art based magic in wha is more personal to me (because well this comes closest to my kind of craft and magic I partake in)#Babel’s magic system stuck with me so much. maybe it’s partially because translation is such a inherent part of my daily life.#and I always think about what is lost in translation and how words and finding the right meaning is so important in translation#(esp when your mother tongue starts to fail you)#fma might be the least relatable to me from those faves because I’m not that kind of stem girlie but the way fma talks about creation and#life and the universe. how everything is connected is such a beautiful way of looking at life. one that has deeply changed me#in general there is something about fiction that is built on the passion towards a specific topic#those always catch me in an iron grip. because yeah. that’s relatable.#fma#wha#babel

found a baby yaku amidst the Sketchbook-glitch-corruption wreckage..... wondering if he flipped skin tones between black and red and everything in between until he saw his to-be-grandparents (and started mimicking THEIR skin tone....... )
#thinking about yakumo having weird lil homunculus proportions or other such variations#what if he just always had massive hands compared to body size. yaoi hands from birth-transformation#he was so anti-snake that he looked at hands and said YES. THIS IS THE LEAST SNAKEY I CAN BE. I WILL GO 600% ON THIS FEATURE SPECIFICALLY#changing forms from entirely obsidian... or red in patches.... or striped... or other combinations...#because he only had murals to base his human form off of? at least at first?#were the murals in colour? shaded with gradients and lighting oh so conveniently?#then how was he to know what skin tone humans are supposed to have???#imagining the first few times he encountered his grandparents in his cave#maybe they only saw a shadow with eyes darting back into the darkness#just a really long black noodle with semisnake semihuman eyes (just a hint of sclera)#and every time they visited#yakumo observed more of their features#and took on something similar to their proportions...? or hair colour? or skin colour?#and maybe even when he's first adopted into the family and leaves the cave#he's still a vibrant pink and everyone thinks he somehow got sunburnt inside a cave or smth#but then he starts seeing all the other people in the village#including diff age groups and kids who are supposedly around his age#so he starts to slowly morph his body toward those characteristics#his skin gets beige-r. reshapes his eyes a bit.... grows a bit of nose.....lengthens his limbs a bit...#(the big humans seem to treat me the same as that speCIFIC group of smaller humans... so maybe i should use them as a Model)#like... how do you even age in a human body when you have no reference for how humans age?!??!#did yakumo stare at several children in the village and watch their growth year by year#and match his body to their changes just to fit in?#did nature just know what to do?? and he just naturally grew like a human without manual manipulation?#I DEMAND ANSWERS#nu carnival yakumo

walking through lucanis' mind prison. the tam lin of it all
#his mind keeps changing forms and you just have to show him you won't let go of him#it doesn't even really matter what you say to him just that you're consistently there to say it. your voice is a comfort. im in pain#I'm having so many feelings about like... rook can't be here. because of all things in the world rook means 'safe'. what if I exploded#what if I just shattered into a thousand pieces and was swept away by the wind actually#'it's better that I stay here than risk losing you' is such pitch perfect trauma logic. freeze logic specifically#on some level he seems to think he keeps rook safe like. existentially. by staying here#it's heartbreaking child magical thinking that makes me wonder like. has he basically been in a place like this inside#ever since his parents died? before that? the ossuary is just new set dressing the underlying logic is OLD. and very very sad to me#'I keep everyone safe by staying here'#(and then the perfect hilarity of having an actual demon be like 'ROOK. YOU TALK TO HIM HE NEVER LISTENS TO ME'#tfw your inner demon gets worried enough to stage an intervention and get you therapy whether you want it or not lmao)#dragon age#dragon age spoilers#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age: the veilguard#rook x lucanis#lucanis dellamorte#rookanis#rye staying mostly in gentle professional mode for this one b/c this is literally his training#('I may not be batting a hundred at being a person but I DO know how to deal with fade shenanigans! not to worry I've got you')#except in that last part with the illario mind ghost where he roundaboutly admits 'I need you I don't know how to do this without you'#in rye speak that is very big it's like. third base of his soul or something. we do not ask for things for ourselves in this house#(because we already know we will not receive anyway so that sounds both humiliating and ultimately pointless. no thank you!)#and yet. the things we'll admit for love#the feeling that some of the things varric did for rye immediately post-exile rye is paying forward with lucanis now. don't look at me

this is the second ever fictional man who has changed my brain chemistry
#kaidan alenko#mass effect#what's up gang. i actually started liking kaidan at first specifically because#i found out he was unpopular and seend as quote boring unquote to the larger fan base#and i'm a contrarion first and person second#but genuinely he's so well written and his complexity makes me want to study him and analyze his relationship#with shepard and the rest of the normandy crew#king i'm sorry that your crime was having gone to therapy you deserve better#he'll never replace the andromeda crew in my heart bc i played me:a vefore the ot#and it was my first pc game#but god . god. god. biting the bars of my cage#he makes me feel insane (affectionate)#(the other man who changed my brain chemistry is grimaldus from wh40k but that's a whole other thing#which can be summarized with BARKBARKBAKRBAKRBKARB BARK BARK)#anyway.#i would be surprised if this hasnt been done before

#art#artists on tumblr#adventure time fanart#adventure time#finn mertens#finn the human#princess bubblegum#bonnibel bubblegum#adventure time au#what else do i even tag lol#idk i cba to tag anything more#a bit of backstory i guess ive always really freaking liked steampunk as an aesthetic#more specifically just. technology in general#like gears n wires n whatever#cool as hell i have like 2 million ocs based on em#and so since im fixated on adventure time rn#i had the most moon brain idea#like “what if adventure time but cool and awesome!!!!”#and here we are#this actually started out from a doodle i did of fern as a robot#because i love fern and i love robots#but the doodle is kinda bad so im not posting it#the general plot of the au is mostly the same as base adventure time as of writing#though i may change it some to fit the au better#i will probably make more designs soon but we will see#it felt weird to draw finn in not the shirt and shorts#like boy that is not what u wear u silly goose#i do really kllike how it turned out tho#also i spent 2 decades tryna draw pb because i cant freakin g draw women#im rambling really hard SORRY LOLOLOL

its kinda unclear how much the others know about kingers relation with light. we dont have a lot of information on how he interacts with the others, since most interactions he has w them is wobbly and brief. important to note that ragatha has known him the longest, and in ep 2 seems caught off guard by his sudden change in tone while talking to her- something shed have expected were she aware of the light thing. which makes me think that no one has put this together yet
(probably not out of obliviousness - the adventures dont seem dark often, and the fort only has room for one person so people dont often talk to him IN the fort. plus most of them prooobably retreat to their rooms at night and thats even IF lights go off at night, which is technically just a hc. point being that theres a good chance the others have not been in many situations where they could talk to kinger in the dark, and it doesnt seem to be something he brings up often- he only told pomni cus she asked, but hed been in the dark for a While before this and didnt say anything)
#tadc#i think abt this sometimes.... it doesnt change much and is more like. me theorizing abt smth small based on minimal info HAHA#so i could be very wrong!#but. as of now this is my hc abt this#fun fact that ive been thinking abt how much ragatha knows about this since i started working on that comic from weeks back!!!!#the 4 page kinger ragatha comic :]#(which god. how did i do that. im not as happy w it anymore cus how i draw ragatha changed BUT. waves hand)#i do think she visits him at night on occasion....#i think she finds it relaxing but i dont think its occured to her that its the light causing that#bc thats a very specific thing to put together. at most she might think its just the fact that Nothings happening and things r calm#that make shim more level headed#so i imagine she goes to visit him at night even if she doesnt know....#i like them being friends its so sweet to me. they have both lost. so many people. but they didnt lose each other#and imo thats made them have a connection thats hard to put into words. that makes me wanna bawl

my issue with rook is i feel like they should be a companion rather than a protagonist. like with the amount of auto-dialogue they have that doesn't need any player input they may as well be their own character.
#the inquisitor spoke a fair bit but at least you could choose what they said in banter sometimes#hawke's banter and dialogue changing based on personality was fun#rook is like. saying what needs to be said in a scene as a very specific character. mine just gave bellara a speech on grief like ? no

Ienzo the Liar
#kingdom hearts#ienzo#library of ruina#project moon#yes this IS based on the pinocchio battle from library of ruina#it's a long story. i was supposed to draw this in july 2023. i didn't. there’s a whole dnd gimmick battle to go with it#me art#me post#pinocchio lor's tactics are pretty similar to zexion's in both re:com and kh2fm#copying your card deck (though zexion steals them instead of just copying them)#and changing the costs of your cards (can be compared to how zexion fucks with your ui in 2fm)#thematically relates less to xemnas's control and more to how zexion feels he is a creature of darkness#hence taking on shadow heartless features#wooden puppets hang from the ceiling in the background of pinocchio's battle and ive placed a hole in a suspicious place on each of them#aaand he's a child because pinocchio is a child#pinocchio lor specifically has the traits “curious” “copycat” and “liar”#which. ienzo :)#do you guys like the color palette I use for like every zexienzo drawing I do#not actually a question. I’m not going to stop using it#I CONSTANTLY forget to turn off red eye mode on my computer while drawing so it’s probably more blue than intended#I don’t really care though

also i just have one more thing to say about the movie and then ill probably shut up for now but im really annoyed with how certain people keep going "omg its not supposed to be a sonic adventure 2 movie stop expecting it to be exactly like the game" to shut down any criticism of the trailers... like don't lie to me regardless of how many changes they make it's still very obviously supposed to be a sonic adventure 2 movie theyre taking a lot of plot points from that game and they keep referencing it in the marketing for the movie you have to have never played the game to think its not an sa2 movie
and like. yeah people who were expecting it to be an exact recreation of the game were probably setting themselves up for disappointment but just because it's not supposed to be exactly like the game doesn't mean that every change is justified or that fans of the game aren't allowed to not like it ..?? it's not unreasonable for fans of the games to want to see the stories and characters they love done justice in an adaptation . whatever man
#like i personally am not mad the movie isnt exactly like the game. i was never expecting it to be .#i just think a lot of the changes they made suck and make the story worse and dont feel like they were made with respect for the game#also tired of people going omg stop judging the movie based on one trailer#and then turning around and calling the movie peak cinema based on one trailer ...... ??#and they csnt use that argument anymore at this point but .#saying its gonna be good is judging it based on the trailers too .. ????????#and im sure a lot of those same people hated on the minecraft trailer when it came out around the same time#just admit you cant handle the slightest bit of criticism aimed at the movie and go#also ik sonic 2 wasnt exactly like the game it was adapting either#but again its not the story being changed itself that i dislike its specific decisions they made with sonic 3#but . the classic games dont have much going on in terms of plot#sa2 is one of the more story heavy games and is possibly one of the most loved sonic stories of all time. its not the same situation.

Holzmann (and a Margot I thought I'd throw in) catified! Thanks for the ask!
My designs aren't really specific breeds per se, but Holzmann is certainly inspired by Oriental Shorthairs. They just feel very him
#the kingmaker histories#klaus holzmann#margot engels#my art#primarily my designs aren't specific breeds because i find breed standards so limiting in terms of colors proportions and personalities#(though cat breed personalities are Very vague compared to dogs)#too many colors stuck within certain breeds. so many limitations in facial feature and body and coat type combinations#since cat breeds have only existed in the last ~200 years the number of breeds and their diversity is verrry limited#dog breeds are wayy more interesting and meaningful. the sheer quantity of them and their extensive diversity and variety of mixed breeds#means there's plenty of options. though i havent done my research about them (esp. with personalities)#so you won't see an anthro dog AU from me unfortunately...#tho absolutely my designs are Based on certain breeds. idk the breed standard so maybe he's off in some way but from an amateur perspective#telsie might as well be a purebred british shorthair (factoring out being an alien lol)#and colette was originally based on oriental longhairs but i normified her sooo hard in the head department IDEK what she's closest to now#that concludes the first part of my tag essay. second part:#(danny don't read any further! there's spoilers!)#MARGOT. i wanted to draw her but wasn't really sure how she'd look... so this is just a first pass (and of course catified)#(yes i sketched out her human face first to figure out how to catify it no you may not see it) (yet?)#i decided to hc for now that she did get herself fleshcrafted to look less like holzmann. that seems like a reasonable assumption#so yeah her og cat facial features fur texture etc. were a lot more similar to holzmann#as for her pattern: she's a black mackerel tabby sepia here#(rare phenotype but some australian mists are similar if you want an irl ref. they aren't mackerel tho)#i imagine originally she was a black mackerel tabby and white. and had blue eyes#(probably with more white on her than holzmann. it's quite unlikely for him to have blue eyes with such little white spotting on his face)#but yea this all may be subject to change if we get a canon hair/eye color for her#damn holzmann... why are you so ears!!! 😂#(he could be earsier. i showed restraint)
