jeff animation study no 3: president of silly walks

[crescent--moons]

Sooo I finished Veilguard a week ago already but have been replaying and stewing on all the feels. I'm at the point where I need to dump some of my personal thoughts and feelings in no particular order and in a list format because that's just how my brain works lol

(Putting them under the cut for spoilers)

- I will protect Bellara at all costs (her personal quest is so important to me)

- Crows and Shadow Dragons factions are peak

- Seeing my Inky again gave me so much nostalgia I almost cried

- The chemistry between Lucanis x Shadow Dragon Rook x Neve is immaculate (bonding over "our day job is killing Venatori" is hilarious and everything I wanted)

- The dynamic between Lucanis x Crow Rook x Viago x Teia has my whole entire heart

- "Illario you idiot" is an understatement

- Taash and Lucanis banter made me laugh so hard I busted a lung I fear

- Emmrich and Manfred are absolutely delightful

- The gasps I gasped when Zara called Illario Amatus and Manfred spoke his first word

- Spite. Is. My favourite.

- The realization that Varric was dead all along shattered my heart

- The character creator is great (wishing for more hair options though)

- Rivain's combat music slaps

- Solas needs both a good scramble and a big hug

- Crow Rook 🤝 Viago "The Crows rule Antiva and Treviso will be free" (I love them)

- All the lore reveals gave both my Rook and I an existential crisis

- The game could have used a bit more faction recognition in certain scenes/dialogs but alas

- The level design is so good and the environments are gorgeous

- Spellblade and Evoker are so much fun

- The animations in certain cutscenes are so well done I was in awe

- I ugly cried for 1 whole hour after I finished the game (worth it)

- Davrin and Lucanis bickering half the time is the dynamic I didn't know I needed

- Harding and Taash are so cute together

- Seeing Dorian (again) and Maevaris (for the first time) in game was awesome

- Evka and Antoine are adorable

- Spending time petting cats and dogs in Minrathous and Treviso instead of getting on with quests is the DA experience I was looking for

- Lucanis Dellamorte has bewitched me body and soul (his story arc and romance was tailored made for me istg)

- I'm just so incredibly happy to finally have a new Dragon Age game after 10 years of painful waiting

[several-ravens]

ngl i started listening to tma for that one hot guy in wolfy's animation (he has a prison outfit so obviously he's a criminal, and i love (fictional) criminals)

he has that cocky mastermind look in his eyes and i dig it

idk who he is yet but he has bewitched me body and soul

Papa’s playlists - music headcanons

Sometimes when I listen to music I mentally associate what I’m listening to the Papas, so I thought it would have been fun to imagine a 10 songs playlist for/of each Papa. I have chosen the songs by their personalities, the kind of music they have done and the general vibes I get when I listen to the songs.

Primo:

I see him sitting on his couch by the fire, immersed in his voluminous, rich vestments. He can listen to the heaviest doom metal tune without moving an inch of his body, fully immersed in understanding the lyrics, but 70s rock always brings back his old memories of when he used to throw small parties in his chamber whenever the Beatles or his favorite bands released a new LP.

The Beatles - Come together 

Black Sabbath - Iron Man

Mayhem - Freezing moon

The Rolling Stones - Start me up

Candlemass - Bewitched

Bathory - A fine day to die 

Mercyful fate - Evil

The animals - House of the rising sun

Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss

Diamond Head - Am I Evil?

Secondo:

He has two sides: the old-school metalhead and the devoted enthusiast of good old symphonic music. He prepares himself a cigar and settles at his desk, embracing the darkness like the nocturnal creature he is, to work on papers or perhaps write some lyrics inspired by his favorite arias. In his playlist, you can always find something classy followed by something extremely heavy.

Led Zeppelin - Kashmir

Slayer - South of Heaven

Venom - Don’t burn the witch

Giuseppe Verdi - Dies Irae/Tuba Mirum

Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers

King Diamond - The family ghost

The Doors - Riders on the storm

Guns and Roses - Coma

Bobby Vinton - Blue velvet 

Antonio Vivaldi - Four Seasons

Terzo:

Ah, Terzo. Whether he's completing his nighttime skincare routine, getting dressed for a mass, preparing for a date, or simply relaxing in his chambers with a good wine, he always has a record playing in the background. He's not a headbanger, but he likes to keep the tempo with his hands. He taps his fingers on his thigh to match the drum tempo of most rhythmic songs or moves his hands softly to the sound of the mellower ones, like when he listens to "Barcelona," adjusting his hand movements based on the virtuosity of the voices.

Candlemass - Well of Souls

The struts - Kiss this

Metallica - Until it sleeps

Metallica - For whom the bell tolls

Kreator - People of the lie

Freddie Mercury feat Montserrat Caballe - Barcelona

David Bowie - Starman

Pentagram - Sign of the wolf

Sepoltura - Dead embryonic cells

Mercyful fate - Witches dance 

Copia:

I can totally picture Copia putting on something groovy like "Stuck In The Middle With You" while attempting to cook something, swaying his hips to the rhythm and inevitably either burning whatever is in the pan or creating a mess on the counter by dropping bottles and food.

Alice Cooper - Poison

Iron Maiden - Run to the hills

Steppenwolf - Born to be wild

Dead or Alive - You spin me round 

Black Sabbath - Paranoid

Judas Priest - Painkiller

The Rolling Stones - Sympathy for the devil

Stealers wheel - Stuck in the middle with you 

The Darkness - Love is only a feeling

Bon Jovi - You give love a bad name

Nihil:

An old-school rocker. He would pick you up in his car with Led Zeppelin playing at full volume, take you to a bar where he puts on your favorite song in the jukebox, and by the time you come back from the toilet, he's kissing some random girl right at the bar counter. He would later apologize, claiming he was just drunk and thought that was you… a red flag you'll ignore.

The Doors - Touch me

Led Zeppelin - Whole lotta love

Elton John - Tiny dancer

Ozzy Osburne - Crazy train

Deep Purple - Child in time 

Deep Purple - Hush

Jefferson airplane - White rabbit

Elvis Presley - Suspicious minds

The Rolling Stones -  Paint it black

The Beatles - Helter Skelter

the chemistry read

this is a snippet from the famous dc!au that started with The Greatest Hits [read here] you don’t have to read it but a lot of things would make sense if you do! hope you enjoy.

Admittedly, you shouldn't give into peer pressure. It does nothing for you in the end except show others that you can be bent to their will. But that will being your fan base is a whole other thing.

You had to prove to your fans that you could deliver right?

"What are you planning over there?" Jason asks.

You look up from your phone. He's sprawled out on the lounge seat by your side. God he looks good but you've told him that when he woke up this morning and when he was making your breakfast. His ego could go an hour before being inflated again.

So you shrug your shoulders.

"A couple of people are saying we don't have chemistry." you answer.

You watch in real time as Jason gasps and gets up from his seat. He walks over to you with a dumbfounded look on his face. There he stands in front of you with his hands on his hips.

"We? Us? You and me? The co-stars of a big blockbuster romcom? That we?" he fires off.

The laugh works its way up from your belly to your chest.

"Yes, us. I was just trying to figure out a way to prove them wrong." you explain.

Jason bends down and the action confuses you. Until his knees hit the end of your lounge chair and he crawls his way up to you. For the love of everything holy you know the two of you haven't gotten intimate yet but you can just tell he is a master of foreplay.

As he hovers above you know you don't know what to think. You can't think. There are no words in your head except for Jason's name.

"I think I've got something." he says.

It's barely above a whisper. You don't know why. The two of you aren't in the country right now. An impromptu weekend vacation to a beach house down the coast. It's just you two here.

You go to speak but stop yourself when Jason grabs your phone. He holds it out for you to put in your passcode, even shuts his eyes when you do it. Then he takes your phone and sets up the camera to video mode.

"Chemistry read. Right here, right now." he speaks.

You look at him incredulously. A short laugh tumbles out first and then you realize that he's not joking. You smile again and set your phone against the chair side table. The camera catches you and Jason from your chests up.

"What script are we working with here? I'd like to be professional about this Mr.Todd." you ask.

"All of them. We're doing best romcom lines ever." Jason answers.

You reach over to your phone and hit record. Jason takes this time to roll back his shoulders and crack his neck. It makes you yelp and cackle like an animal. He has to reel you back into the moment.

He goes first. And boy does he make a show of it. He looks at you intensely It's the way his eyes aren't just one color that throw you off focus. Sure you couldn't think about lines before but now? Definitely not.

"You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on." he repeats.

Your eyes widen and your hand clamps over your mouth. Jason laughs right along with you. You clear your throat and try to calm yourself.

Then you lean right in. You and Jason just a foot away from each other. You see the smirk on his face.

“Just shut up! Here... I wanna marry you because you're the first person I wanna look at when I wake up in the morning, and the only one I wanna kiss goodnight. Because the first time that I saw these hands, I couldn't imagine not being able to hold them. But mainly, when you love someone as much as I love you, getting married is the only thing left to do. So, will you, um, marry me?” you spurt out.

Jason lets out a gasp. You dust your shoulder off with a bashful grin on your lips. Nodding you head to your choice of rom com.

Then Jason leans in so that your noses are touching. You can't help the way you take in a huge breath. Or the small noise you make that Jason is eating up by the way.

“You jump, I jump, remember? I can’t turn away without knowing you’ll be alright.” he says.

Titanic? No way!

You have to one-up him. You can't let him win this hypothetical challenge you've set for yourselves. No way. Realistically he reads English lit so he's going to have an advantage. But you would be damned if you went down without a fight.

“You were my new dream.” you reply.

“You complete me.” he shots back.

“You had me at hello.” you respond.

Jason lets out a warm breath and you feel it against your face. Did he just let you win? You cock your head to the side. But sure enough Jason cradles the side of your head with his hand, his thumb rubbing back and forth on your cheek.

Yeah he let you win. But you think back to the way he crawled up the chair to you and you think to yourself that you have already won twice. Three times if you count the fact you woke up next to him this morning.

Why not let him get a little something for his troubles?

You turn your face inward to his open palm and place a kiss to it. As you do your eyes never leave his. His eyes go wide and then soft, a downturned smile on his lips.

"Think we need to shut the camera off now."

“Why?”

“I mean I’m okay with PDA but some things are meant to be private.” he explains.

“Some things like what Jay?” you ask.

You know good and well what he’s talking about. You actually love teasing him. It’s the better part of each day you spend with him. The way he reacts.

"Things like my tongue in your mouth.” he says with a smile.

You nod your head along, “Get the camera pretty boy.”

His eyes do the thing again and he’s reaching over for the phone to hit stop.

“Yup. Got it. Got it. Getting it.” He says stretching over you and fumbling with the phone.

He hits stop and record a bunch of times. You know you’re going to find several two second videos of you and him sitting like this. You don’t care though.

All you can think about is savoring this moment. He looks hot to the touch with the sun behind him. His sunglasses in his hair. Shirtless in tropical designed swim trunks that you don’t think anyone could pull off but him.

And he is all yours.

Babes as if manga and anime Kunikida weren’t enough stage Kunikida has bewitched me, body and soul; and I love, love, love him AND THE STAGE ACTOR IN GENERAL GOD BLESS

[luvrodite]

Hi, Ro! I was wondering how did you get into the DC universe/comics and what made you fall in love with Jason Todd? I’ve never read the comics (except like two) but I want to, however I don’t know where to start and it’s a little overwhelming. Jason Todd has bewitched me body and soul.❤️

(For context I’ve read Batman: Year One & Batman: The Long Halloween. I’ve watched Under the Red Hood and Batman: The Animated Series.)

hi hi hi honey!!! i am so sorry for the late reply to this, i keep making the mistake of checking my phone when i'm half awake and forgetting the things i need to reply to.

i think i got an ask about this a little while ago (edit: i have a worse sense of time than i thought, i answered it 8 months ago sdgdh) so i'll link that here for u baby!! it is very rambly though so tldr: i watched a lot of dc cartoons as a kid and then when i was a little older the internet pipeline led me to his doorstep eventually and i just never left.

i love so much about jason and thank you for asking me this!! i feel like i haven't talked about him properly in ages and i miss him. i loved him so much because there was a lot about his story that resonated with me and my own life experiences. i think particularly just. growing up and being so drastically different from who you once were because of things that happened (which is life!! you grow and you change!! it's just different in his case because he never got the chance to grow and explore, this thing happened TO him instead :( ) and the people around you not being able to reconcile with that and making it your problem.

i resonated with that a lot as a teenager and even as i get older it still feels like it rings true some days.

i feel that about the comics being a bit overwhelming!! there's a list on tumblr that gives you a list of some good starting places if you're looking to get into jason's comics, i've linked them [here].

the post categorises them really neatly but i've just taken the bit they've listed as essential reading and pasted it below:

Batman #408-#425 + Batman annual #12 (1987-1989)

Detective Comics #568-#582 (1986-1987)

Batman: the Cult (1988)

Batman: A Death in the Family (1988)

Batman Annual #25 (2006)

Red Hood: The Lost Days (2010)

Batman: Under the Red Hood (2005-2006)

i really really really enjoyed batman: the cult, i think the colours and art in it were so beautiful and the story spoke so much to me. i need to reread it!!

i hope these were helpful my angel!! also if anyone has any more suggestions for comics to read after finishing these please feel free to comment!!

[sevicia]

the anime man I'm obsessed with exists only within the pages of an 8 chapter BL manga from 2020 that I first read in August and have not been normal about ever since. and it's not even like a super complex or fancy story like he's literally just some guy but slightly to the left. and he has bewitched me body and soul.

i may never read the manga/watch the anime BUT live action one piece has bewitched me body and soul

La Mortification d'un Insomniaque

The Mortification of an Insomniac

Original Monologue by Jean Clamence (me)

I cannot sleep. Why sleep, anyway? The night holds wonders far more splendid than the day. I love him with all my heart. I can inhale stars, walk along icy quarters, lay on rigid concrete, and spin around in the pitch black, the void which embraces me and engulfs me into a sweet hysteria of turmoil. I will bang my head against my bed frame and my surroundings will swirl dizzily, laugh about it, then go outside, bump into streetlights with an eclipse of moths circling above my head that yearning for the light. From a stale, flaccid, pink worm, I twist and turn among the lepidoptera, growing their wings and taking flight, possessing their bewitching colour and gaining their curious allure. When day breaks, I will find my body broken beyond repair, that my metamorphosis has come undone and I've regressed to an ugly worm, my soul torn apart with each bit of purity dismembered, and my mind lost in the vastness of a region squashed between heaven and hell. I become aware of the meek fragility of my existence---in matter and in memory---and along with it the utter meaninglessness of everything. Hours will pass, twilight will start, and I will retreat into the night. Then, crimson puddles may dry up on my teeth, turn them brown, rot them to excess, fine dust, and my eyes may swell with tears, begging for the end, spread wide with eyelids parallel under the shade of fifty strands of fried hair, but I don't notice them. I cannot move for myself, but for the thought that seduces me and takes advantage of my blindness: 'What is so hazardous about a tiny cut, a small scratch, a little wound with a few miniscule drops of blood? There is no distinction between an arm lost and a healing bruise. Both will return to me a hundred times over to collect me at my doorstep, abrupt as the appearance of goodness and love, as simply developed and intricate as the act of sin, on an evening when silver skies weep and too, shout with brute force. Both will end me, and in the end my ending is nothingness, for the end is nothingness because the world is nothingness after days abundant of sin and beauty and will'. And so I continue, but the problem that troubles the lover of the after hours is that he is awake, he exists in the present as undoubtedly as the cold, hard wall which he peppers with rims of ash from the cigarette bums he presses onto it. More times than not it will occur to him: the thought that the promise of night is forfeit, for there is a plausibility in the possibility that it will only grant the ephemeral thought of eternal slumber, not the eternal slumber of ephemeral thought, and instead will lock him away, conscious of the reality that he has taken millions of breaths since death was promised to him. When he has alas had enough, all the peer insomniacs scream in unison with him, once again, after the vigor of life, when everybody has dozed off and children have been tucked in their beds with the comforting plumpness of soft, silk pillows and stuffed animals. And they cannot stop, for where else could they grieve but the night? Where else should they grieve but the night? The day cannot free any prisoners. Distraught, it is fully aware of the truth that it is also a problem.

I am striding along elliptically around the base of an oak tree, waiting for day: waiting for it's demands, it's responsibilities, it's shedding light on the actuality of being, the wild unpredictability of a day, an hour, a minute, a second, a glimpse. I know I do not want it now, but I wait for it. The time will come when I kneel, assure it's superiority and beg, for I will feel and think 'I need it'. I frown at the slight appearance of the matter in my consciousness, at it's reoccurring routine, the never-ending pattern of night and day. I can never shut my eyes in the night, nor rest with my eyes open in day; I want to change the world at midnight, but four hours later dawn will come and everything, motionless and locomotive, will show me the short extent to which I can carry out my superficial aspirations. They are different, but they become one in the common torture they bring to me. They merged into one behind my back, under my ears, and I hitherto have been completely clueless; C'est la vie. And la vie est une maladie, a  malady that hides itself in plain sight and sense. It is a killer with excellent skill and strategy, being able to run on it's tip-toes and not make a sound. Nobody died that has not lived. Joy is living. This endless suffering is living. Attachment is living. War is living. It will kill us all because of the pointlessness of it all. I know what I must do now. I pray for neither night nor day. (It's like being given only two horrid politicians to vote for, and asking 'Which one of them has committed a lighter crime: the perpetrator of the genocide of children or the one who kills a child every month? Not only is the question foolish nonsense adorned with perfume made from cow dung, I deserve better.) I only await eternal slumber with no consciousness, only a comfortable hopelessness. Only then---when my remains will most likely lie in a coffin or in a marble jar---can I be free.

[soul-dwelling]

Do you think there is any subtext in Soul Eater that isn't obvious and got lost by most readers?

I’m not sure. 

I mean, there are those references that definitely escaped me early on. 

I mean, the witch references I missed the first few times watching: Blair referencing The Blair Witch Project; that witch Samantha alluding to Bewitched (which itself was an influence on the magical witch genre in Japan); Angela Leon is a chameleon-theme witch. 

And the musical name references went over my head. 

A lot of the names can elude us, granted, whether due to language barriers or missing out on puns and allusions. For example, Kid’s name, when spelled out in capital letters in English, are all symmetrical. And as Black Star himself explains later in the manga, you can read his name as much as meaning “dark world,” hence his feeling of isolation and when he refers to Tsubaki as being like the bright stars. And Maka’s name being an anagram of for the Japanese for “scythe.” 

And there is the role Rasputin had and hence why we see Maka fighting him. Quoting from the Soul Eater Wiki (https://souleater.fandom.com/wiki/Rasputin): “[T]he Bolsheviks tried to kill Rasputin in several ways including being shot several times. Rasputin mentioned that bullets [were] ineffective against him.” 

In fact, those first chapters have a ton of those references. It’s why you have so many characters associated with death early on. Rasputin is an early opponent. And before him, Anubis, an Egyptian god of Death, fights Kid. And plague doctors were around death so much, so you have Excalibur looking like a plague doctor. 

I’m not sure about subtext that readers may miss. 

Maybe you can read into Crona’s gender identity in relation to how Medusa treats them as an “it,” but some of that I think owes in part to English speakers in the US getting a bonus interpretation by the translation, e.g. Crona has been treated as just a thing, their time away from Medusa allows them to determine their own identity, the manga and anime at varying times have Medusa refer to Crona as an “it” as much as a convention of translating pronouns as it is translators emphasizing how Medusa indeed sees Crona as a tool or a specimen. 

I’m not sure how much to read into Stein from the perspective of body augmentation. You have him tightening the bolt through his head as the “loose screw” visual metaphor for his sanity. 

I’m still not quite sure what the anime was getting at during Stein’s hallucination, with Spirit as a dog (that he’s Lord Death’s lapdog?) and Marie’s henohenomoheji face (that she is just another faceless victim of Stein’s screw ups?).

[like-wuatafauq]

Idk if you’re looking for a girlfriend now, but if you are what’s your type?

Hello 👋 yea I actually am! :) I'll probably be very slow with it if I just meet someone bcuz it takes me a while before I develop crushes. Also this is a long post i know!!!

But my type is someone who's gonna be long term that leads to marriage, I really can't be with someone who won't commit to me or likes multiple ppl. (BTW I'm not trying to sound like I would shit on anybody who doesn't follow any of this that I list I just look for this personally bcuz I know otherwise it won't work out)

Distance: I can do long distance because I'm willing to travel, of course I'd prefer near me but I'm just saying I'd be willing to do it for someone.

Appearance: high femme(doesn't matter goth,cottagecore other) she doesn't have to be high femme all the time but I do prefer someone more feminine than me. I really like when a girl has long nails I don't care if it's natural nails or not I just really like how they look. I like when girls have long hair and style it especially as pigtails that shit makes me fold so easily. I don't necessarily have a type when it comes to other physical feautures but i would prefer that they look nothing like my ex who traumatized me because that would be super weird for me(she had very basic white girl features, I'm not trying to be mean to white girls she just genuinely did)

I'm not very picky on skin color or weight :) I'm Demisexual so I have to trust you and know you for a bit before I get intimate and find you sexually/physically attractive.

Age: preferably 22-27

Height: not taller than me because I like being tall and how it feels to be hugged by someone shorter than me. I'm 5'10 so I'd say 5'8 is the tallest I'd date.

Religion: I don't necessarily care but I'd prefer for her to atleast be spiritual, witchy or believe in something. It felt very empty not connecting spiritually with someone I don't think I could do that ever again. (I'm trying to be bewitched body and soul)

Personality: Really nice and caring :) She's gotta be funny and weird like me though lol into cosplay and anime so that I can cosplay the whole family ^-^ which means at least one kid but I've always wanted 3 with the option of my wife wanting more (I'd be super okay with that). Super affectionate. Super honest and understanding. I value honesty and loyalty heavilyyyy. She can be unhinged and if she's got any mental health issues I'm okay as long as they communicate with me and don't use it to abuse,cheat, and basically hurt me. Like they gotta also be working on themselves because I know my brain is super fuckked but apologies and taking accountability things like that matter to me so much so i make sure i do it too especially if you point out something to me that means a lot because i wanna be able to work on it so i can treat my partner better and stay together:) I really value someone who can support me and me towards them.

Oh Also!! Plz god a bottom. Plz mainly a bottom or like a switch is fine but with a bottom preference. I just really really really really ah let's just say I'm very hungry and ready to eat all the time. I prefer submissive bottom or dominant bottom is fine or if you are gonna top me plz don't be dominant,like service top is fine(but its very rare for me to bottom). I looove being a service top or dom top just topping in general.

On another note on sexuality: I use to not care but after my ex I feel like I'd be waaaaay too hurt or insecure or anxious to date someone who is not a lesbian, so I'm trying les4les not because I think any other sexuality is bad but because i know for a fact I would need an annoying amount of reassurance to not wanna break down or panic. And I don't want to put someone through that. I would have to really realllyyyy trust the person, and even then, I fear I would burden them. Sorry yall my ex fucked me up big time.

But basically: long-term monogamous, very affectionate healthy obsessive possessive femme.

[Other random notes: when it comes to finances work etc. I like providing but I would never get in the way of a woman wanting to succeed in fact I would support her in anyway whether is work partner or at house work or like if she wanted to just be a housewife that's fine I'll work harder to provide. People don't realize taking care of house work is just as important as a partner providing!! I try to be as specific as possible because i wouldn't want to lead someone on]

💖Ooooo bonus if she loves to bake and cook so I can get little treats when I get back from the gym!💖
