pro tip for anyone planning on buying Another Crab's Treasure: for the love of fuck don't get the Switch release, it's almost unplayably buggy. i did, by sheer stubbornness, make it to the end and beat the final boss after a 2.5-hour slog (it's the final boss of a souls game. it's Fuckin' Hard.)... which immediately caused the game to crash and i had to look up the ending on youtube.
#fun game pretty environments smart design#story is nihilist doomer garbage and i think i hate the writer even though they're good at character voice and dialogue#what an unpleasant person you'd have to be to want to write this#game rrrrrec? non-rec? game expression of strong ambivalence

monster boyz thoughts...
#ok so. basically i woke up thinking about teeth & how he would show his love for red#bc 1. he can't talk & so he can't outright say he loves him but also.#2. neither of them really understand love or that what they feel for each other is love yk#so i was thinking. teeth probably always leaves the actual act of killing their prey to red or#at the very least. makes sure red is watching when it dies bc he knows that's like... uh. he knows that's the ''important'' part to red#if that makes sense#also! i think the only reason teeth eats people is bc of red#if he hadn't met red i really don't think he would have survived all that long bc he's not particularly fast (bad leg)#& he's not particularly smart either. so he most likely would've gotten taken out by monster hunters if he was alone#though he is very strong so the hunters wouldn't have been left unscathed#& i think red wouldn't have survived all that long either bc he was never particularly careful about anything until he met teeth#he was doing increasingly risky & dangerous hunts bc he simply didn't care yk. but teeth gave him like. a reason to be careful & calculated#which just further proves they're bound by fate yk.#um. i also had some breakthroughs with teeth's origin story so. i maaaaayyyy work on those today. i might actually make red's finally#we'll see. i might end up drawing all day again. idk. n e way.#rainyrambles

“You don’t have to do this.”
"You don't have to do this."
Demeter's voice comes from somewhere behind Alonzo's shoulder, thin and reedy but heavy with intent. She is frighteningly calm, all things in considered, though Mungojerrie can hear the tail edge of something foreign tightening each syllable.
The decided emphasis of the statement gives Alonzo a solid beat of pause; he's hearing what Demeter is saying, but, more importantly this time around, he's deliberating it. It's gotten through to him. Mungojerrie sees every millimeter of muscle beneath his eye twitch and shift. He holds his breath.
The speed at which Mungojerrie had been off his paws and slammed back against the wall was - admittedly - startling, knocking the wind and words clean out of him. He'd been midsentence, explanatory excuse just on the tip of his tongue, attempting to keep pace with the cats walking with him, but every time he caught up front, they continued on. Alonzo wouldn't even look at him - that should have been his first warning.
They'd been silent amongst themselves when he'd made his meager attempt at explanation. Even Teazer was frighteningly quiet, trailing hesitantly behind Demeter, in the way that suggested whatever she'd seen back in that room hadn't been good. The silence had been deafening and uncomfortable, tension thick and wounded like a noose set to decorate a neck, and every nervous bone in Mungojerrie's body screamed to fill it, interrupt it - say something that would diffuse everything and stitch them back together instead of feeling like he'd been trapped behind glass, screaming and screaming with no one around to make it mean anything.
He'd said the wrong thing; he could feel it the moment it whistled through his teeth. He'd said the wrong thing, done the wrong thing, pissed off the wrong cats. Or just one of the wrong cat; the most important of wrong cats. And they'd all surely pay for that slip up down the line. But it could be smoothed over; surely everything could.
The last thing he had heard before being suspended was a sharp, flat exhale - a decisive, frustrated kind of noise that, perhaps if he were paying more attention to his surroundings instead of his fear, Mungojerrie would have recognized as something foreboding.
Now, he was face-to-face with a very angry looking tomcat, and struggling a solid few inches off the ground, every instinct in his body screaming at him to escape, lash out and yowl like his tail was on fire, do something, but he was completely frozen. Alonzo held onto the scruff of his chest firmly, shoving his nose into Mungojerrie's muzzle and the rest of him bodily into his space so he couldn't look away from him even if he tried. There were bright coals of anger burning in Alonzo's eyes, fanned to life with an undercurrent of fear. Danger. A reminder - Mungojerrie thought distantly as his attempts at squirming free from an iron grip slowed to a trickle, then an icy stop - of how he'd gotten to be where he was in the first place. It was easy to forget; easy to pretend they were playing one long hauled game. Alonzo was grumpy and aloof, but never dangerous. Never any real threat.
There is a scar running through his lip and up into his nose, deep and pulled taught against his snarl. Mungojerrie wonders where he got it. He'd never asked.
"What the fuck were you thinking?" the larger tomcat growled, low, menacing, cold, shaking him for emphasis. "What is the matter with you?"
Send me a sentence and I’ll fill at least five more in after it for a little mini-fic.
#HEY I'M ALIVE AND DIDN'T FORGET THIS#i guess i'm just using these as excuses to write more demeter and alonzo and the rest of the mouser's palace gang#Mungojerrie#Alonzo#Demeter#Rumpleteazer#fanfiction#my fanfic#jellicles ask because jellicles dare#jellicle-chants#here's the thing lads - alonzo got to be where he was for a reason#and b. this would have been around when jemima was small so alonzo isn't screwing around anymore#the rest of this that wasn't turning out involved quite the angered flame from him let me tell you#idk what jerrie did or said in that meeting room but lemme tell you macavity wasn't happy#lucky someone was there to talk him down from that one - macavity isn't exactly the merciful sort#it gets to a point in this universe of mine that jerrie and teazer have a really big moment of realization that they're not playing games#it never was a game - and no matter how smart you think you are macavity is smarter#also like if alonzo can bodily toss macavity he's strong i refuse to believe otherwise

so is shadowclanmew just austrailian
I made a vow that if there ever was some situation where I was putting voiceclaims to BB characters, I have to choose exclusively Northern English accents. But I would also include wiggle room for a Welsh accent.
#Because someone I love told me they're really frustrated with only hearing their accent in simple and honest characters#They said Bones make mean and intelligent northerners and I was like#Im too american to understand this. Is this like how appalachian accents are treated as stupid?#And they said yea#And I was like well shit then I guess I'm gonna commit to this wholeheartedly. You got it boss. Smart and scheming northerners coming up#Jessy has a Cumbrian accent so strong it'll kill the queen twice#I mean. ASSUMING it's an english translation because these cats would realistically have clanmew accents.#Which does have an accent. It is a whole language.#Fennelposting#I did the same thing to Duckfur who has a lazy eye. He gets to be smart and ambitious.#I gotta draw him as a fullbody so he can be blorbo of the week. I really like him#Sedge's Lawful Evil brother-in-law

Men who view women as their intellectual equals 😍
#pro tip for the boys: a lot of girls will respond a lot better to a stimulating conversation than to a guy trying to show off#ignore the movies they're lying to you when they tell you you need to be a show off#and if a girl wants that it's maybe not the best sign y'know?#but most girls just want to be treated like we're capable intelligent humans#that's all!! the movies and shit make it way more complicated than it has to be#and yes some girls do make things awkward and complicate everything#but maybe you wanna be careful about that because those girls generally have a lot to unpack#being friends with those girls is fine!! just make sure you have strong boundaries in place#and make sure she's doing some work on herself before considering a romantic relationship#but anyway i've had a lot of men in my life that i feel like wanted to be so much smarter than me#and not to be rude but they weren't?? i was just as smart and sometimes smarter#i didn't care that they were confident in their intelligence but i felt like i needed to dumb myself down#and it. freaking. sucked. i have no idea how i did it for so long#and i would even make jokes about like the guys i dated being smarter than me and nobody ever said anything??#and again these guys weren't smarter than me. that's not an insult to them just acknowledging i'm smarter than i was gave myself credit for#i'm outgrowing the notion that i have to dumb myself down for men and it's so freeing#and you know what really helps me actually? being in college#and especially being in college with so many intelligent men who know they're smart#these guys KNOW they're smart. and not in an arrogant way in a secure and confident way#them knowing they're smart makes them the OPPOSITE of arrogant actually#it's weird but i stand by my observation and it makes sense when you think about it#if you're secure in yourself and your intelligence you don't need to proce yourself by making other people look dumb#these guys are secure in their self-image and masculinity. they don't need women to be dumb and weak to feel strong and intelligent.#and it's so freaking endearing. i love that for these guys so much.#i am just so thankful for people in my life who are taking me seriously and who are helping me to understand i'm worth taking seriously.#wow these tags are long but anyway#guys you don't have to prove anything girls you should never have to dumb yourselves down live long and prosper

Lyris finally gets to introduce Solas to Tala and the rest of her clan, and Tala is immediately demanding to hear all about what happened in Minrathous and if her mum killed another god like she killed Corypheus.
Give it an hour, Solas will have all the kids pestering him to turn into a wolf because Lyris told Tala that he ripped Lusacan's throat out, and she's run around telling everyone.
#datv#datvc spoilers#solavellan#lyris lavellan#solas#tala lavellan#ngl i can see solas settling into the role of a hahren really easily#he loves to tell stories to the children and teach them history while fending off requests for him to turn into a giant wolf#the parents are wary at first but their kids are always so excited to spend time with him and he's very protective of them all#they might not be well-behaved children but they're smart children and have strong values and principles#and if he takes them anywhere then it's all but guaranteed that they will come back safe and sound and thoroughly exhausted

You got isekai'd into SYSTEMA. What now.
Be amazed.
Remember I spawned into the "everything sucks" world.
Break down and cry.
Consider death as an escape.
Summon the global chaos by leaking insider secrets that could make about 200 new conspiracy theories.
Hope that Sera's conspirator ass tries to find me before one of the hits get me first.
Ending 1: I get sniped.
Ending 2: I get jumped.
Ending 3: I get kidnapped.
Ending 4:
Ending 200: It worked! Sera insults me. I cry from both the height she's holding me at and the insult respectively. She tells me to quit sobbing so I weep in incognito mode.
Make it into the Manumission. Wipe my face. Contemplate death again.
Get interrogated.
Get welcomed in! (I am still under close observation)
Quietly fangirl about my characters in 4k then feel incredibly weird about how much I know.
Get interrogated again.
I know that Nathaniel knows that I know but he doesn't know how much I know until I make it known that I know that he knows.
Consider death as- oh. He heard that too.
Literally everyone freaks me out for different reasons. I hang out with Sonia. She calls me fat. I still like you Sonia.
Live in the manumission under witness/informant protection and try not to die.
#devarambles#ARK_SYSTEMA#i can't do shit in this world let's be honest#i'd just be a regular person#who can magically draw everyone with perfect detail (to them)#I'd at least know what's going on with everything. That foresight would save them from like... 60% of what goes down#I'd never be able to get along with Vincent. I do not have the rubber skin nor the emotional security + he would scare me to high heaven#Fucker looks like a spooked horse and he's tall NUH UH i'm not havin it. I'd maybe help him behind the scenes though. Stroke his ego a lil.#I could not be around Nate I'm sorry I'd avoid him. The fear of being known is real.#People can deal with him because nobody knows that he's intimately familiar with the core of their personalities and thats why he won't say#but I just know that this asshole can hear me thinking about how orange juice should be in cereal. I KNOW what he would think. SO NO. NO.#Uh.. What else... Sera? I don't think I have what it takes to bore through that shell of hers. Her personality is incredibly strong.#And only people like Nathaniel Sonia and Eric can get through because they're both perservering and self-assured. I don't fw distant ppl#I wouldn't chase her and she wouldn't seek me. No friendship just acquaintances type beat#Amon is cool but I don't know how I'd feel around him knowing his story. It's like hanging out with Rodtang. But he's hot. ough#Eric is cool but I know that this guy is super smart and he's a bit too silly. I'd end up telling him one too many secrets without realizin#Strohl is a genius and he'd find me really dumb and unprofessional which honestly I get. He's also just not my type of company#Which brings me back to Sonia. We'd get along. I'd be able to brush off her comments and she'd vibe with me. She'd get me good clothes too.#So that's that that's everything yay gwenchana gwenchana

I just think it’s silly that so many people complain about Villain Amaya as “wasted potential” and that “we were robbed” like-
My pals, post canon fan fiction is right there. The desire to free her husband is right there. Either by touching an evil book while being too eager to remember the obsidian oil, or being possessed by contact (ie what she believes is true loves kiss) when trying to reason with him in the dungeon.
We don’t need a rewrite, we can have a continuation. Both can be true. Amaya is a complex character, she can handle it.
#Wish#Queen Amaya#I assume I'm going to get hate for this but like#I know it's not store bought and you have to still make it yourself but also#I'm kind of just tired of seeing a lot of people sh*tting on Wish because it's not the concept art#And I'm kind of over here like how about we love it recognize it has flaws and THEN try to make something new without bashing the OG?#I just love Amaya and she definitely deserves more#but her good character is so interesting and complex#she still knows how to have fun. She still can be sassy or bite.#Like she's still Magnifico's perfect partner you know? and Magnifico isn't perfect?#A truly pure person wouldn't click with Magnifico the way Amaya does...?#I would rather build on Amaya's character than say she can only be good and boring or a villain?#Amaya is so smart yall. I know you can't see it all just on the movie but like she's read every magic book in Magnifico's library#THOUSANDS OF BOOKS.#And knows basic protection spells#She's a devoted leader.#Like.#Idk#She both loves her husband and recognizes that she has to go against him.#She doesn't /turn/ on him. She addresses his flaws and tells him that it's not okay?#She still jokes with him even though she has to put him in time out. She's complex and strong and wise and kind.#And I just hate seeing so many people so quick to just say 'the concept art was better' when like... the idea might be more appealing to yo#But I hate the level of cynicism and pretentiousness I see of people saying their personal ideas of what Wish should be-#-Is better than the piece of media they claim to care about?#Like their personal vision of Wish based exclusively off the concept art is somehow intellectually superior?#And I'm not saying stop doing your rewrites or AU's or anything! Like there's definitely beautiful creativity happening!#I just hate seeing people so negative and like honestly mean. It hurts my heart to see everyone calling Wish garbage?#It's not great but I really really dont think it's as bad as everyone is saying. Like its no like Oppenheimer but it's a children's movie..#Like I personally love the Teens and Amaya#And everyone saying they stink makes me sad... Because they're just great characters?

Blasting my psyonic beam at whoever's in range to explain how the Tenacious D covers of "Wicked Game" and "I think I love you" sound how closeson feels. To me. Unrelated, I'm not usually all that into zombie apocalypse AUs but I think Darryl and Glenn would be so fucking funny in that context and my mind keeps going back to it. Send post.
#I JUST KEEP THINKING ABOUT CLOSESON TODAY LOL IDK THEY'RE JUST SO CUTE#Oh in the zombie au Darryl totally rescues Glenn when they first meet btw#And Glenn is kinda pathetic but occasionally has good ideas and sings in a way that makes Darryl very flustered#Just imagine Darryl slinging Glenn over his shoulder and running from the zombos#As Glenn nonchalantly compliments how strong he is#and Darryl's face turns a deep shade of red but no. Gotta focus.#Darryl is looking for Grant and probably Carol also- they got separated#Glenn is hypothetically looking for Nick as well but heh he's a smart kid he's probably fine#[Cut to Nick Grant and Carol together and absolutely whooping zombie ass]#darryl wilson#glenn close#closeson

barely 2 chapters into a semi-charming kind of life and i'm already screaming over the parallels i'm seeing between darling and apple, oh my god...
#they're both so desperate to prove that they're capable smart strong ppl but that often gets overshadowed by their beauty#the major difference is that apple is still more than happy to fill the role she's been given bc she knows her future is secure ->#and that she can go on to prove her skills as a queen (which seems to be what she's actually passionate about)#darling... really doesn't have that kind of security#mostly bc her tale is fucking bogus like it's so clear that milton made that shit up on the spot#and what would really be her ending in that tale? just be rescued and live happily ever after in some gilded cage?#do you think darling has any resentment or jealously towards apple bc she'll be able to be recognized for her strengths someday?#meanwhile she's stuck with only ever being pigeonholed as a beauty and nothing else?#*banging my fist on the ground* THERE'S SO MUCH POTENTIAL W/ THESE 2 IT'S KILLING ME UGH#okay back to actually reading#also i'll finish the rest of the blorbo asks tomorrow!#ever after high#darling charming#apple white#dappling#ship : apple & darling#mj.txt

are people really mad that of all things shadow is actually kicking ass in the movie trailer, come the fuck on lol
#dax rambles#like i get the complaints about the movies and i have several gripes with them but genuinely so much of this feels like really#bitter nitpicking and grasping at straws lol#i have my own concerns about the movie trailer but shadow showing them up in his literal fucking introduction was not one of them lol#“tails could hold his own against shadow he wouldn't go down in one hit” i don't think any of you know these characters beyond fanfiction#tails isn't a pussy but no he is not physically strong no shit if fucking shadow of all people decked him he'd be down#he's smart and has finesse that's tails' strength lol#it's so annoying because this is shadow's literal debut like no shit he's meant to look strong as fuck also he's the fucking “ultimate#lifeform“ for a reason i feel like that's something both SEGA and apparently the fans fucking forgot until recently#shadow's finally being treated like a badass again but people are now crying about it because “noooo he's hurting poor heckin team sonic :(#they're meant to be rivals not enemies!!“ buddy have you even played SA2 do you even remember how their fucking relationship begins?#also another thing this is the initial trailer and it's being cut in a way to make shadow look OP as fuck intentionally and if he was#too evenly matched against team sonic from the get-go i'm sorry but that would be so fucking boring and unironically OOC

Why didn’t anyone tell me that Black Adam and Damian have interacted with each other before and the way it was handled was pretty good?
#I think they would get along pretty well#they're both very straight-forward people#who may appear rough at first but are actual softies inside with a strong sense of justice#and both of them are very smart and very eloquently-spoken#I don't know if Amon exist in this universe#but I wouldn't be surprised if Damian reminded Adam of him#and maybe that's why he likes him so much#Damian Wayne#Black Adam#Teth Adam

The Justice League are all incredibly smart, intelligent, and capable people (not to mention sexy i mean who said that 👀). And I feel like I just need more of them asking for each other's help on things. Even for the simple sake of "hmm I can't find the flaw in my process/plan, I need another pair of eyes to see if there's something I keep missing".
I need their conversations to borderline unintelligible sometimes. I need them to know exactly which JL member to call up to fact check something for them. I need them to be constantly info dumping w eachother and teach eachother what they know. Do you see my vision??
#dc#dc comics#justice league#jl headcanons#jl#i like to pretend that the real reason they're dumbed down when they're together#is because they're too smart and strong and sexy and everything would be too easy for them otherwise#ik know its delusional but let me dream

#rambles#all of these are/will eventually be romance#looking at my list of faves though i honestly didn't.... realize my taste in romance and relationships were like....#more relationships of equality haha#for the most part independent and a strong (not feminist strong) mcs#and male leads that for the most part let the mcs do what they want#the mcs are not necessarily women that can do anything and everything falls in their favorite#they're not necessarily headstrong or super smart or calculated#the relationships are not necessarily heavily skewed to one side of the other#i-if u ignore 'what it means to be you'#don't read that one if you dislike angst and no comfort but like the payoff is sooooooooOOOOOOOO GOOD#the honorable mentions are things that i generally did like but had flaws in some way#but still otherwise pretty good#the 'mother's contract marriage' and 'my father the possessive demi-god' have actual non isekai'd/reincarnated kids as the mc#the first one the mc is absolutely lovable and cute but not in a forced and annoying way. you can tell she's a kid but she has depth#the second one is like.... wow. i love the bond between the sisters in the second one and just mc in general. i just really it a lot
