reminding everyone that the in-universe problem with The Doctor and The Master isn’t “ooo horrible nasty enemies who hate each other and don’t get along and fight all the time but are also in love”
the problem is that they get along. the problem is that they can’t stop themselves from falling naturally into a rhythm of riffing off one another and enjoying the other’s company. THAT is the problem. the problem is that it works and that’s the thing that caused all their issues. they like one another. they just click.
#doctor who#thoschei#the doctor and the master#the master#twissy#they’re also the two worst people on the planet(s) l#lol#it’s the person you can’t help having chemistry with#they almost don’t have a choice#they both know it too#sometimes one of them will pretend it isn’t true but it is it’s the very much mutually understood truth#the problem is they just like one another a lot#not even in a romantic way#even tho it’s romantic lol#they just LIKE one another !!!#what was that thing stephen moffat said#companions bring it up all the time too. it doesn’t make sense why the doctor lets them get away with so much. it frustrates every companio#when they see that the truth of the matter is that the doctor just LIKES the Master#the two kids every teacher sits intentionally far far far away from one another lmao

why must everything that the text clearly states atp be misconstrued like i really dont get it he has plenty of flaws in that relationship but we, and cersei, know that he was ready to kill robert for just the disrespect of the cheating if cersei said the word. he doesnt concern himself with the personal consequences, he is reckless, detached from a lot of things, and can close his eyes at the future if he doesn’t want to acknowledge it. also the concern over the “shame” and ned type judgement feels so overestimated to me atp. he never regrets aerys, he is mad at how he is perceived (but again, notably doesnt try to rectify it by telling the truth for a lot of complex reasons), but he would never take it back. if he believes its the right thing to do, and is not overdosing on copium trying to juggle vows he cares about, he will do it, reputation be damned. though he has selfish concerns regarding being viewed as good, the internal matters so much more than the external: see weirwood dream: who actually shows up? what makes the fire go out? “it was not him. it was never him”, see the trebuchet fiasco, see the choice in adwd. why shouldnt we take cersei at face value when she implies that if jaime knew about the physical abuse he would have killed him? he loves and cares about cersei to an insane degree, even if he can be selfish toxic and unhealthy too. not to mention he would be glad to kill robert anyway lol. i really find it very very difficult to imagine that he wouldnt have killed him based on almost every single part of his characterization.
#ik its better to reply than to do this but i dont use my twitter for fandom and i keep seeing this general sentiment over and over again#like it makes him so inconsistent and nonsensical#i don’t understand this whole jaime was never there for cersei prehandloss he was at her disposal for almost everything he would have maime#a child just bc she asked like what???#u think that wouldnt have shamed him??#he gave up almost everything for her at 15#and im gonna be real if u r frustrated by jaime burning the letter being framed as this grand triumphant redemptive choice#by people#which i get i dont think its framed like that either#its just as unfair to treat it as the opposite#it is the end of a certain delusion#which is why the joanna dream is the focal point#and#he can divorce himself he has no obligation to die to try save her atp#and remain her sword#i dont see him as the literal devil for that sorry#i feel like some of u feel the need to misconstrue his character to make some of these choices out to be as bad as possible

top ten pics taken seconds before disaster
#tldr a lot of drawing + my dorm desk is Really Bad for my wrists and i didn’t realize has kind of fucked me up bad#i don’t do basically anything all week until it stops hurting and i draw a tiny bit and it goes back to hurting#i have literally nothing to do w myself bc brain doesn’t want to do anything but draw write or game and i Can’t Do Those Things#and even when my wrist stops hurting i have to basically exchange any time i’ve earned to do my classwork#leaving no time for myself and my own work unless i say fuck it and gamble more strain#i don’t want to say it’s depressing me bc it feels. pathetic? but as someone who Has to get ideas out lest they start rotting him#it’s… not great#on top of some irl frustrations it’s made for a kind of glum few weeks#oh well. back to laying on my side watching youtube i guess#sparks speaks#vent#? yeah i guess#“i’m not depressed” says the guy who wakes up feels his hand twinge and immediately almost starts crying#like. lame ass behavior but it’s not like it’s a choice#i just wish it didn’t make me so mean. i’ve started avoiding ppl cause i’ve been getting mad rlly easily#which is not helpinggggg

sometimes i remember that gojo wanted to tell geto “we’ll meet again, right?” just before he died but forced himself not to knowing it would have cursed him and then i start thinking about how kind and thoughtful gojo is as a character and how he hasn’t been able to lean on another human being since geto defected and then i want to . Scream
#like. there’s something almost helpless about that question. because gojo doesn’t *know* the answer…. he’s asking for reassurance#he wants to know if they’ll ever meet again even though deep down he knows the answer#and it’s so… bare? so vulnerable.#if he had voiced it that would’ve been the first time in TEN YEARS that gojo truly bared his heart to someone and asked for help#but he knew it would turn into a curse and so he gulped the words back down. :((#gojo is such a sincerely kind and thoughtful character and it breaks my heart that sooo many people in the fandom can’t see that 😭#he isn’t a saint and he definitely isn’t selfless but above all else his goal as a human being is to make sure no one ever feels alone.#that no one has their youth taken away from them….. that everyone gets a Choice in how to live their life :(((( it’s so important to him.#i just genuinely don’t understand ppl who insist that he’s morally gray ….. gojo is a consistently Good person and that never changes#he wants to have fun and laugh and he wants his students to enjoy their youth. he wants them to think he’s cool.#he’s the big brother slash father Ever and i love him to death#i got sidetracked this was supposed to be abt geto 😔😔 anyway the final scene between them will always be my Favorite ever#and the key to understanding both their characters and love for one another#ty for coming to my ted talk i’m feeling normal abt them today 😇😇#ari noises ✩

PLEASE HELP!!!
2 for $20 chibi special!!! My bank put me in the red BY A LOT today cuz they overdrew my checking account for bills and ummm I’m freaking out. Please help.
I can’t even afford to get my driver’s license renewed by September (which I need to do cuz it’s expiring and only like $50 but I don’t have money) but I need that cuz I’ll be starting my clinical practicum next month for school which is also why I can’t leave my crappy job that pays me next to nothing.
Please please please help I’m begging you. I want to draw for you guys, but I really shouldn’t take full-blown commissions cuz I’m also in grad school and dealing with studying for finals. My commissions are always open, but I’m offering the 2 for $20 special for chibis (my usual pricing is $15 each)
Dm for PayPal info and to send your character refs. If you can’t commission, reblogs are super appreciated. Please and thank you 🙏
Sample:
#guys I’m so stressed please#I don’t want to be like this#but I have no choice#my work is hardly giving me any hours#and I wanna go work somewhere else but I’m starting clinical next month#I JUST CAN’T BORROW MONEY FROM MY PARENTS ANYMORE#IT MAKES ME NAUSEOUS#I LOVE THEM BUT I DON’T WANT TO BE A BURDEN ON THEM FINANCIALLY WHEN I’M ALMOST 30#my life is a mess right now hahaaaaaaaaaaeeelp

there’s a horrible sickness in me that makes me want to stop and replay da:i whenever i start a different game. how am i supposed to resist the story of my own unwilling apotheosis? especially as lavellan, who doesn’t believe in the maker and who has every right to hate and mistrust the chantry but chooses to use what power they have to try save people, to fix what’s broken, no matter how afraid they are or how careful they have to be. walking side by side with the great trickster god/adversary of your people without knowing, befriending him, changing his mind about this world but ultimately not his choice. he understands what’s happening to you because it happened to him once and he gives you his castle, built over the place where he sundered the world, and paints your story there in frescos that will last long after you’re gone and after the story has been retold and reshaped so many times that the truth of who you are and what you did is lost—just as he did his own story, which was lost and perverted by war and propaganda, and he shows all of this to you knowing you’ll understand because you’ve lived through something similar, grown into something larger than yourself and your true name, and it doesn’t change anything but. he wanted you to see him just for a moment, even if he can’t tell you everything (or almost anything) and you can’t save him—because he owes it to you as a someone who is a friend, almost an equal, and because there’s no one else left who knows: a direct result of what he did to your people and which he now seeks to undo at the cost of this world.
#dragon age#solas#literally i am ILL#i love religious trauma and stifling hypocrisy and walking carefully so carefully through a place i don’t belong but i’ve chosen to be#and questioning everything and losing and discovering myself over and over#and accidentally becoming friends with my work colleagues#and most importantly dating an actual god who is just a nerdy little guy who keeps fucking everything up#he’s such a liar but he wants to badly to tell the truth but he can’t he won’t#yet he only really lies through omission and speaks carefully so as not to give himself away#ok and also he very much wanted the anchor and manipulated that whole situation#but he also shows you who he is and tells you a sliver of the truth#and he didn’t have to do that! but he chose to—he wants you to see him and on some level to save him from his path i think#also i debated sooo long about the phrasing ‘almost an equal’ because i think he does consider everyone as worthy of life & choice as him!#but ultimately he is making the decisions of a god whether or not he acknowledges himself as one#he is deciding for a whole world—so i think there’s some cognitive dissonance there#and i went with almost#i’m fr stalled out in the middle of bg3 like i miss solas i miss my work friends

Ever since Taemin came out with his own lightstick, I’ve been fantasizing about what the other SHINee members’ lightsticks would look like 🤔💎
#shinee#taemin#lightstick#it’s so iconic that it’s literally him doing the t-pose#like i don’t think they could’ve come up with a better concept#jonghyun’s lightstick would’ve been a cresent moon duh!!!#minho’s lightstick should obviously be a torch#like HELLO!!! FLAMING CHARISMA!!!#but i think it should be multidimensional so that there will be a darker blue on the outside and pearl aqua on the inside#that would be GORGEOUS!!!#i’m stumped on what Key’s lightstick should look like#the obvious answer would be a lock or a key but we all know how Key feels about things that are cheesy#it would be cool if he did do a lock but the keyhole is diamond shaped#kinda like Minho’s the actual lock itself would lightup pink but the inside (the diamond shaped keyhole) would glow pearl aqua#onew’s lightstick is another one that i’m stumped on#a sun seems like the obvious choice and it would harmonize beautifully with the moon lightstick i invision jjong would’ve had#i almost feel like a rain cloud would fit onew better#it’s different and mellow like onew#plus when it would glow green it would be a subtle homage to SHINee’s song Green Rain which i think Onew would like#on top of that the raindrops could lightup pearl aqua and be really pretty#i’m in love with the idea of the SHINee members’ lightsticks having both their assigned color and their fandom one#it’s a perfect way of showing how even when they’re alone and doing their own thing they are still a part of shinee#let me know your thoughts#onew#jonghyun#key#minho#ot5#5hinee

So I followed you years ago for the first season of tua. It has been years and now tua has come to an end. I just watched the final season. Did you or will you watch it? I might not be able to recommend it. Which is such a shame. The first season was amazing and will be forever one of my favorite shows.
I have a terrible confession to make…
I’ve only fully watched season one of the umbrella academy. I started season 2 and haven’t finished it yet 😭
#asks#anonymous#I’m a SHAM#the thing is when I get into something I almost need it all to be out at once#bc if there is a hiatus or I have to wait for new seasons#I start playing with the characters like dolls in my mind#and then I’m always ?? about the choices the real creators make bc that’s not the characters I made up in my head#which is obviously my own fault#also my adhd ass forgets things exist easily#and also I rarely watch TV shows to begin with#or movies tbh#I’m more of a reader than a watcher in general#so I’m WAY better at watching things when I have people to watch them with#I watched season one of tua with my old roommate#and my sister started me on season 2 but then she went home ofc and I didn’t continue by myself#and I don’t have anyone else who wants to watch with me I think#I’m BAD at watching visual media#unless it’s documentaries/crime or hospital formulaic shows/video essays that I can have on vaguely in the background while I do other stuff#I watch a lot of dropout content for that reason lol#but yeah me not watching the rest is why I didn’t finish some of my fanfics and haven’t written more#I have committed the exact same crime with the Witcher if that helps

jjk manga spoilers. I’m trying to find that recent interview (?) with gege but not sure where it is or if what I heard was accurate. It was something about not developing or doing much with Tsumiki’s character, which was also my biggest issue with the Culling Games arc
#I have issues with other things. mainly sporadically in the chapters since Yuki’s death#but everything with Tsumiki pissed me off#so I’m interested in hearing what Gege thinks was the issue or why it was released like that#with a lot of manga it’s almost Always partially from the terrible shonen weekly release schedule and bad treatment of artists#(not to make it seem like gege wasn’t in control of writing choices. those were things he decided to publish. it’s just context)#ugh I don’t even know if what I saw was true#I also saw somewhere that gege ‘confirmed’ nobara’s death at some exhibition#but tbh that’s. not anything new in the slightest idk why I saw some trending tweets about it#ever since the gojo time skip I’ve given up at her. the chance for her to magically return was almost nonexistent anyway but yknow

Me telling my mom what comes after we’re done with Bridge to the Turnabout went like this:
“It’s the end of the Phoenix Wright trilogy! Then we start on Apollo Justice!”
“What, so Phoenix isn’t in it anymore?”
(Well, about that…) “I mean, it’s called Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney! Apollo’s the main character.”
“But, Phoenix isn’t the defense attorney anymore?”
(WELL, ABOUT THAT.)
#ace attorney#did she have to phrase it like that???#(And no she does not know whatsoever she’s not in The Tags#I didn’t even want to tell her Phoenix is there so she’s not looking for him)#also this happened and I drafted it before we finished but we since have and I am.#bridge to the turnabout may be my favorite case now. wow.#not as much was spoiled for me as I expected#but when I asked her if she had a favorite character she said …several… and then went through almost everybody major#also I made the choice to just speedrun explain JfA rather than play it#look I know Edgeworth has great stuff there and it’s pearl and franziska’s intro but#I didn’t like watching the other cases enough to be willing to hold out#and I refuse to subject her to turnabout big top#I’m hoping the hook of the first case doesn’t sour her for AJAA but for me it was intriguing so maybe??#also don’t know how she’ll like no gumshoe and Edgeworth

JUMPING UP AND DOWN!!,,,!!,! I DREW!,!,,,!!!!,,
yo cuando mujeres sobrenaturales
#So like… I don’t know how to explain what I just did#Basically She is. Um. Benevolent shapeshifting entity#She is a giantess (ig) and she takes a stroll around the world in a constant loop#Everyone sees her differently. Everyone has a unique sight of her. No one has seen the same version of her#By the way her name IS She. I’m not motivated enough to make som up.#Anyway as I was saying uhhh yeah so#She’s basically a concept materialized into reality#She isn’t like a normal human at all. Her skin is elastic (almost like that black goop that ppl thought was solid until som time ago)#((I can’t find or remember the name of the black goop I’m talking ab. imma look so weird. But I swear it exists 😭))#(((GOOGLE ITS NOT FUCKING OOBLECK ITS WAY MORE SPECIFIC THAN THAT FUCK YOU)))#Also uhh back to the main topic. She is going to be eaten alive by men#Kind of like Gulliver and the liliputians#PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IM TALKING AB ISNT NICHE AND THAT I SHOULD BE LOCKED UP 😭#I had a Lilliputian dictionary when I was a kid…#ANYWAY ughh I keep getting distracted#Honestly that’s kind of about it as of now#Also I’m debating if all of her forms should be completely naked or if they should maybe have a little clothing accessories#I’m mainly debating this bc of things such as hijabs. Burqas. Niqabs. Etc.#They should also be included in the beauty thing right? But it’d be inconsistent world building for She’s concept maybe?#She is only her liquid form. Where would she get the clothing articles? And how would they fit her gigantic size?#Well. Whatever. I can do whatever I want and bend rules however I want. If She goes fully naked or wears something it’s her choice.#There’s a lot more stuff I want to mention but it’s whatever#traditional art#Pencil art#concept art#story wip#Women

sometimes i reread the series and it becomes clear that shannon did not hire a sensitivity reader
#not that i don’t love the series still#butsome of the writing choices are incredibly ignorant and weren’t caught because she is a white woman#and mostly works with other white women because the publishing industry is not very diverse#but come ON shannon why are almost all of the poc parents bad parents#we know abt the song twins being the stereotypical asian parents but also#the aria parents ditched their kid and ran. prentice who is the only black father was absent for wylie’s childhood#(not counting maruca’s parents as a poc win bc even though maruca seems to have had a good childhood her parents haven’t had a line)#and the only divorced characters are black. which would be fine if the other black characters werent either minor characters or prentice#and also the fact that the council has a lot of poc but the ‘good’ councillors are white.#as much as i love the series it’s clear that there wasn’t a lot of thought put into the writing of the poc which rlly fucking sucks#shannon pleade talk to poc….#kotlc#kotlc crit

i still haven’t written out my 261 metapost but i can’t stop thinking about the stsg subtext in that chapter . the parallels between geto slaughtering the village and gojo slaughtering the higher ups…. the fact that gojo does it right after declaring that he has to “catch up” to geto
#IT’S SOOOOOOO#i will die defending gege akutami’s character writing i’m sorry#i think the shinjuku arc is sloppy when it comes to pacing and some technical fight stuff#but character writing wise it’s SO fucking good it’s so incredible it drives me insane#character writing AND relationship writing#which imo are gege’s strongest points aside from fight choreography#like it just . drives me insane#it’s such an interesting line!!!#he needs to Catch Up to geto. he needs to make a choice for himself not knowing if it’s right or wrong just like he did#he needs to carry through with an extreme action to get the change he wants .#instead of the slow “root cause” method that he himself implemented#(which for the record would have been smarter in geto’s case but for gojo’s goal extreme violence Works )#i also think that on some level it’s like … kinda proving geto’s point?#“you could do it satoru.” he has the power to change the world almost however he wants and he finally used it#at the expense of his own morality and sense of reason. which does turn him into a “monster” narratively i think#i mean . obviously i don’t think gojo killing the higher ups makes him a bad person 😭 it’s a very big deal for gojo’s character though!!#he’s always been capable of cold pragmatism. and he’s always been willing to get his hands bloodied .#but NOT with humans/sorcerers and that’s the really big distinction . he’s not psychotic. he never has been.#i think gojo was probably scared when he decided to go through with it. because it really is him trading a piece of his humanity away#:((((((((((((#aughhhhhhhh gege akutami i love you but when i fucking catch youuuuuuuuuu#anyway i should rlly save all this for the metapost but 😭 i needed to get it out….#ari noises ✩#meta ✩#jjk manga spoilers#jjk spoilers#jjk 261
