#this is helping the creative juices flow

[9haharharley1]

For the new post I'm really interested in your stuff for Vlad for 002. I love seeing stuff about this stinky man/hj

How I feel about this character:

I love him (no one should be surprised)! More specifically, I remember watching the show back in the day and thinking, "Wow, he's really fuckin creepy, I'm getting Slade vibes." By the end of Bitter Reunions he had unironocally become my favorite character and I'd get excited any time a Vlad episode came on. I almost always wind up loving the villains more than the MC. He's creepy, he's scary, he's pathetic, and sad, and scared, and everything in between! How can I not love him?

All the people I ship romantically with this character:

Almost exclusively Danny, but also a little bit of Jack, and with Valerie and Danny in a polyship.

My non-romantic OTP for this character:

Jack Fenton! Vlad will never escape Jack's unconditional love and friendship.

My unpopular opinion about this character:

I'm just gonna quietly admit here that I hate hate hate the babygirl thing people do with characters, and that extends to my villains, but especially Vlad. To each their own and all that, but it annoys me to no end.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this:

I wish Danny had actually become legitimately scared of Vlad at some point. I know it's a kids' show, and I know that Danny is supposed to be the snappy hero who triumphs every episode, but one of the reasons I like The Ultimate Enemy episode so much is because Danny technically fails. Had Clockwork not had a soft spot for him, Danny wpuld have lost everything in that episode and only "wins" on a technicality. Up til then, he develops a legit fear of his future self, and we see more of this in the GN.

Vlad is someone who has had nothing but time to hone his skills, and Danny struggles to fight him multiple times throughout the show, and it can be inferred that Vlad is going easy on him, especially when Kindred Spirits rolls around and he punches through solid concrete trying to capture Danny. "Funny, ha-ha Vlad isn't here today" - that is a horrifying line. Danny would have failed in this episode, too, if not for Danielle having a change of heart when Vlad reveals his true colors, and I would have loved for this to be the time when Danny actually starts to realize that, "oh wait! Vlad's scary as fuck, and I still have a long way to go to reach his level!"

But once again, snappy/quippy kids show, hero's gotta win.

my OTP:

Pompous Pep, aka Vlad/Danny

my cross over ship:

None

a headcanon fact:

I don't know how much of a headcanon it is, especially since we get hints of it in canon and now in the GN, but Vlad is possessive af. Of items, of people - once he's claimed them, they're his, and he won't let them go for any reason, and he lives in constant fear of losing them. Maybe it's a result of losing his best friends after the portal incident. Maybe it has something to do with being half-ghost, but this man has a constant undercurrent of fear lying just below the surface, and when threatened, he responds with anger, claws and fangs bared to the world, ready to lash out and blame everyone for everything but never himself.

FINAL FANTASY XV ↳ Title screens

[keikeichi123456]

does anyone have any zosan abo prompts/headcanons/ideas? i wanna write another abo fic so bad BUT I HAVE NO IDEAS 😭💔

[zerozeroren]

Well this was fun to do XD

Bonus:

[mad-hunts]

the thing about barton and his own 'foil' as she should technically be considered, as she is technically the complete opposite of him in every way that matters, is that sumire [ whom i have talked about a few times on here, albeit briefly, so i will give you a brief refresher on her and that is that... her character eventually commits these killings based on the twelve main tarot cards in a deck based on them not fitting her idea of what 'perfect' looks like (kind of like barton BUT much different at the same time) ] and barton used to know each other as they were best friends as kids — even if it was only for a few years.

and as strange as this may sound, a broken promise between them was partially the catalyst behind what started her descent into feeling this need to 'judge' people, which is quite the coincidence as it may seem. because where do most of her victims end up dying? in these settings where she has set up these 'mock trials' for people. so, i know that i said i would talk about how barton had inadvertently created a monster a longgg time ago, but i now am sharing it with you all. because although one cannot blame barton fully for her actions as sumire, of course, has to take responsibility for them herself; but this did play a part in being a catalyst for her feeling all of this resentment and hatred for the world / people around her that led up to her first murder.

which, as you might have it, was the chariot: a tarot card that symbolizes revenge, willpower, and essentially tries to subconsciously put off this message that you are moving in the 'right direction.' i don't think it's so much just the promise itself though that makes this important — it's also that barton himself essentially forgot about the promise he made to sumire, as terrible as that may sound. it actually kind of gives you more insight as to what was going on in barton's mind as a kid because he basically made sumire promise him this: that, if he ever got on the 'wrong path,' that sumire would be there to show him a better one. and that she would attempt to reconnect with him if they ever got separated somehow / give him a sign of some kind that she was still there, so he could meet her.

and i say that this provides more insight because i haven't really gone into depth about this, but barton has expressed this idea in one roleplay on here. + that is that he didn't want to end up like this. however, regardless of that statement, there is no washing away of all of the heinous things he's done and he chose to do them anyway. i'm just thinking about how messed up it is that sumire, up until the point where she started her murders, had casually been searching for barton because the way in which his victims were found was vaguely remiscent of the way that wesley used to kill his victims. + this meant that he was definitely on the wrong path and she would eventually end up on the wrong one too.

Pokemon art requests open

Been drawing a lot of Zelda lately, so I crave drawing some creatures again. Feel free to send a dm/ask with a specific Pokemon you'd like me to draw, can be OCs or pmd teams as well. Max two Pokemon for any one request tho

Finished pieces will look something like this

I'll keep these open depending on if/how many I get, and you can send a request as Anon as well if you're shy

[owl127]

Hello owl, how are you? You haven’t posted lately and I just wanna check in

Hey, love. Yes, I have been lacking. I'm involved in new projects in real life, and my hobbies took a toll.

I'm starting a business and getting more responsibilities at work, which is good, but god, I have no time left to write as much as I wanted to.

Maybe if I had some quick prompts to get me going 👀👀👀

[kirnet]

i tried a solo journaling ttrpg for the first time by playing chalice and it was super fun!!! i needed a brain break after fighting actium, and it had the perfect amount of prompting while still letting you take the lead on the creative decisions and connections. i came away from it with a surprisingly coherent and circular story given the fact that it was all randomized

[dyke-mecha]

Writing requests: OPEN

I remembered how much fun it is to fill out prompts, so! Decided to open writing requests again!! Feel free to send me either a full prompt or just a character + word(s), I want to write some drabbles than I wouldn't think of otherwise :D

Real quick rules: no shipping, no nsfw, I can not do a prompt if I don't want to, please be chill👍

Currently accepting requests for 2012, tottmnt/mm, 2007, batman vs tmnt and rise! (Sorry 2003 turtles, I don't feel confident writing you yet TT_TT)

ANSWERS!!!

1. How do/did the Spooky Beloveds meet?

Virgil is a space cop (acab except for him). Remus is Remus (he killed a man).

2. Has Vee ever been on a space mission before or is he a newbie?

He’s been on quite a few, cause it’s his job to escort criminals to and from the prison (mostly to, because prison systems don’t function very well as a means of rehabilitation, and probation is harder on the moon). Space travel is kinda hard to get used to, though.

3. Very curious about Mars' character so what truly makes him an asshole is he a villain?

This is explained in the first 300 or so words of the fic, so minor spoiler warning ‼️ His whole deal is complicated, but mostly he’s just a shitty rich guy. Mars Creativity is basically Elon Musk, but better and smarter and worse. Also, all the OC names in this fic have some meaning. Remus’s momma’s name is Rhea (probably Rhea Duke but that’s subject to change), and Roman’s mother’s name is Silvia Creativity. Do with that information what you will.

4. Are any of the other Sides in this fic if so are they also Astronauts or do they have different titles as well?

So far only Roman and Patton have been mentioned, but I am planning to include all of them. Patton is a shuttle pilot. Roman is complicated (explained in the first few hundred words as well). I think Janus is, briefly, Remus’s cellmate? As for Logan, I haven’t figured out a role for him yet, but I feel like he works with Virgil in some capacity. I’m not sure how active of a role the others will play.

5. Is there an actual prison on the Moon?

Yes! It’s officially named the Lunar Criminal Detainment Facility, but, c’mon. It’s the moon prison, and that’s what everyone calls it. (Also, we’re pretending space travel has been made easier by futuristic tech, cause why would I ever do research for my writing) (the trip to the moon still takes 3 days though, to give the guys time to bond)

Thank you so much for the questions! Really helped get my brain juices sloshing :D

Ahhhh this all makes me even more fucking excited for this I L O V E L O V E L O V E E V E R Y T H I N G about this concept so far!!!

[demcntwins]

The Anti Ecto Acts:

The Anti Ecto Acts are a policy pushed through by the Ghost Investigation Ward under the radar of the JL and the JLD, its basically a policy that uses the Fenton's research that claims that ghosts are nothing but malevolent entities created when the strong emotions from the moment of someone's death imprint on deposits of ectoplasm in the atmosphere. The claim is that though they can mimic human emotions, they are anything but. This research is extremely biased based on their own experiances with ghosts, which have been skewed from the start because they expected to be attacked by them. Well yes some ghosts are more of a concept (such as Undergrowth, Nocturn, Vortex & Clock Work ect), there are those who are the souls of the deceased who didn't really believe in anything but did not wish to be reborn so their soul wound up in The Infinite Realms. The Anti Ecto Acts basically allow the GIW to capture, kill or imprison ecto entities, however there is an intentional lack of definition to what that means. Well most would assume it means the creatures that hale from The Infinite Realms, really it allows them to take those with extreme ecto exposure into custody as well. This includes most of Amity due to the extremely elevated ecto levels due to the Fenton's Portal, and can mean many people in larger areas and sometimes even metas who's power's come more from ecto exposure than a natural ability. Because of this the violation to The Meta Human Protection Act is the main angle point when the JL & JLD learn about and officially oppose the Anti Ecto Acts, the Lanterns getting involved and stating that the act is for all intense purposes a deceleration of inter-dimesional war really helps their case to.

I find it funny how so much of the fic/book writing advice out there is to focus on one thing at a time so you don't get overwhelmed and that's definitely good advice if it helps you, but no one talks about having multiple Large Projects of different genres going at once so it's harder for you to get bored and you don't have to force yourself into the same headspace repeatedly until one is finished

like to each their own but for me bouncing around between projects depending on my mood has been much more helpful than trying to force laser focus on one

[courtingchaos]

I’ve had a thought about river monster!eddie…

do you think the reader would bring him like offerings??? or like little gifts that she thinks might make him happy? but he’s a literal river monster so like his definition of gifts and hers are very different. like she brings him a pomegranate or makes him a crown of wildflowers and he doesn’t know how to respond so he just gives her a dead water snake in return and she’s like ughhh ok thanks i guess???

Lmfao you’re on the same track as the rest of my workshop team! One thing I’ve been kicking around is a shed scale of his. He is her mate and vice versa, so little offerings like that or stones. There’s gonna be a lot of gift giving. It’s my own love language after all. 

[unmellowyellowfellow]

I mean life's boring nowadays and you make my day have some meaning

Even when you're not on I scroll your Tumblr page to see if there was something I missed

that is so SWEET of you omgggggg i will use this as motivation to be on more i promiseee

i think interaction is like the biggest motivator to create and be online and i've been such a ghost that ppl probably think i wanna be left alone lmao but i think its that i used to actually get on and engage with ppl like every day and when that died a bit i started to get more easily distracted with other hobbies. but its winter and freezing so why not be online more lmaoo
