#this is really funny to me for no particular reason

[phightingheadcanons]

That anon who rambled about phinishers (aka me >:3) is back at it again! Mostly because someone reblogged my first post asking who’s a Focus and who’s a Release. Well, here’s what I think!

Sword: Focus. Fun fact: in the brief moment he’s airborne, Sword transfers all of that built-up energy into his blade, causing the explosion 👍 

Skateboard: Release. For as long as he’s fully charged, his senses are cranked up to 11. He uses this to plan out where he wants to race off to.

Biograft: Phinishers don’t exactly work when you don’t naturally feel strong emotions. Or emotions at all. Subspace added in the overdrive mode as a substitute. It probably works on a timer.

Katana: Focus. Similarly to Sword, he also channels his energy into his gear.

Ban Hammer: He’s technically a Focus…but by the gods does he want to use it on any opponent he sees, regardless of their health. Sometimes he’ll get inpatient and just use it, even if it means wasting his ult. (Couldn’t be me-)

Rocket: Release. He gets a lot more giddy and excited when fully charged.

Slingshot: Focus. His eyesight improves like mad when fully charged. So much so, that the effect lingers until his phinisher is complete.

Hyperlaser: Focus. Many phighters power up their gears with their energy, and Hyper is no exception. Some speculate that he actually steals the energy of the demons he takes out with his ult, allowing him to do it again. Meanwhile Hyperlaser has no idea why that happens 🤷‍♂️ 

Shuriken is a weird case. To start his phinisher, he has to focus. But when his concentration falters, the giant shurikens get launched. He normally does this on purpose, but he’ll accidentally toss them all willy-nilly if he gets distracted.

Scythe: Release. Tis’ hard to ignore the thrill of the hunt, but she’s learnt how to manage it for the most part. Scythe also had to teach herself how to channel that energy into her ranged phinisher, which doesn’t come as naturally to her.

Medkit: Focus. For whatever reason, his ult in particular takes a lot more focus to properly perform. It’s astounding how good his concentration is.

Boombox: Focus. But as he gains more and more charges, a feeling of anticipation sets in, with it culminating in his (literal) beat drop. Sort of a mix between the two.

Subspace: Release. And extremely impulsive, like Ban Hammer. A deadly combination.

Vine Staff: Focus. Oddly enough, the lotus will persist even if her concentration is broken. She just has to unleash it first.

Coil: He’s 100% a Release phinisher. When fully charged, he has the urge to go phucking feral.

In total, that’s 9 Focus, and 5 Release phinishers. Yap sesh complete!

Scythe needing to put active mental effort and concentration into not murdering people with her phinisher is really funny to me <3 LIVE YOUR TRUEST LIFE SCYTHE!!!!!!!!!!!!

statistics say that on average there is at least three instances of iceman yelling at an airman a week. this is false. pete mitchell is an outlier and should not have been counted.

🦷/ 🛳️ / 👻 for the ask game? 👀👀

Ohhhh, Rochen comin' in with some FUN ones! <3 Thank you!!

🦷 Is there a chapter, scene, or WIP you're dreading to write (but is necessary to your plot)? Share a snippet or tell us about it!

Jocasta Nu was tired. A colorless dawn rose somewhere on the Coruscant horizon, though obscured by endless clouds and smoke and traffic, she couldn’t see it. 

She leaned against the side of the duracrete building with her hood pulled up against the drizzle and listened to Count Dooku, erstwhile leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and sometime Lord of the Sith, be noisily sick over the rail. 

Oughh, 🤝 oh my brother in arms united against our tricky chapter fours! Yes, The Thunder Answered Back chapter 4 has been my bane. 

I think a lot of it is that for 25K, it’s really been the Jocasta and Dooku show, this really intimate boil between them, now the other plot threads and other characters are moving into intersection. A lot of this convergence is powered by mechanisms that I introduced in the first chapter, but now I want to go back and re-explain them to my intelligent reader, predictably leading to awful sentences.

🛳 Are there any new ships you want to write for? (Platonic, romantic, or anything in between.)

—OOOH SUCH AS CASUAL LOWKEY BACKGROUND CODYWAN IN MY TIME TRAVEL AU BECAUSE YOU GAVE ME BRAINWORMS ABOUT THAT SHIP IN RIFLE??? SUCH AS THAT, TUMBLR USER ROCHEN? <3 <3 

I also want to write some Sifo-Dyas/Dooku/Jocasta, a ship I’ve loved to read but haven’t done a lot with. I just think those two deserve to make a nice Dooku sandwich. Gay man, aro woman, and their bisexual confused idiot.

👻 Is there a new genre you'd like to write?

Humor! It’s weird, one of the most highly prized compliments I ever get on my work is when people find my fics funny. (The one I get the most frequently is “weirdly” funny, which is frankly even better to me, because it suggests it was a surprise.) But I’ve never considered myself a humor writer. Partially because it seems like humor and crack are sometimes expected to be synonymous, and while I love crack and respect people who write it, that’s not what I’m doing - whatever humor is set in otherwise “serious” fics.

I think it’s also just daunting to say “hey I wrote this because I was trying to be funny on purpose,” because of course, how horrible to admit you’re trying to do something and have it flop, and humor can be so subjective! So, anyway, I want to do more with that genre in the coming year and be more brave about it. We could all use a laugh sometimes, and actually, I think I’m funny as shit, so at least one person will be having fun with it.

OK I've got one for Huntsman.

You're able to track through scent and a keen eye for tracks in various terrains. Have you ever tracked big game, like say...a moose? And if you did, have you kept anything as souvenir like the horns?

I always say "Morning" because if it was a good morning I would be Hunting

come to think of it ive projected so many things onto izaya over the years i probably owe him an apology

like 1) lgbt 2) mental illinois (particularly bpd but also(and i thikn this is kind of less projection more 'well with his childhood and the way he was forced to care for himself it fits quite well') cptsd) 3) emo (this is not really so much projecting as it is 'why did you own a chain wallet in high school') 4) fall out boy fan (my mental image of izaya reading pw lyrics intensely) 5) latina (this is kind of a joke but also i love my latina princess) 6) [i can't say this one] 7) theres probaly more idk but ya thoise are the ones i can think of

i draw to draw & not exactly for results. i mean sure i have an end goal in mind for things but its not really about that. so. i generally just assume people will see the art & look at it for all of 20 seconds maybe go 'neat' to themselves & maybe hit like & thats it. i dont expect it to particularly catch any interest that anyone would save it and especially not something anyone would come back to look at frequently. i dont even look at my own stuff much after its done (usually) how can i expect others to. its not even a sad thing for me i appreciate those 20 seconds of consideration & every like i get. to think it means more to people is always deeply surprising

I'm a Miku/Teto truther but I like the idea of Miku/Neru too lol

I like everyone in Triple Baka and I love Triple Baka as a group. They're special to me 🥰

99% just my autism speaking here but something ive been noticing lately that im sorta kinda 😶 about is when ppl are like "I think you'll like this" but not bc they ACTUALLY think you'll like it, rather they just got into it and want you to also get into it so "I think you'll like this" is a nice personal hook. i love chill stuff as much as any other person ofc but given i don't divulge that EVER, what makes you think my berserk reading, made in abyss watching, drakengard playing ass would like YURU CAMP????

When you guys were gonna tell me that ace attorney had a stage play btw?

[a-treatise-on-velociraptors]

I feel like there's a whole essay to be written about what make good storytelling in a fanfiction context vs what makes good storytelling in an original IP context. Why is it that I love transformative fanworks, but when something 'official' feels too fanfic-y it doesn't sit quite right? What makes something feel fanfic-y in the first place? Why is it that some tropes work better in fanfics than in original works, and vice versa? What does it mean when I think a story feels like it's a fanfiction of something that doesn't exist?

i haven't gundam posted in ages but i might get back to it eventually. what i was really debating was making a gundam side blog so i can sit there and be insane about it on a more contained level. but also, i'm extremely lazy, so therein lies the problem. might just robot post more here when i feel like it
