also, i think it's very interesting how that friend of vi who she met on the streets of piltover immediately gets out when he sees caitlyn is accepting what ambessa is proposing. he gets that it's not about saving people, that what ambessa wants (and caitlyn is going to do) is targeted violence, on top of a structural system that created this mess in the first place. she's now only seeking revenge.
and can we talk about how Vi and Caitlyn on the lore were always Vi punching and asking later, and Caitlyn being the most "careful" one, and now in Arcane we're seeing the absolute opposite? i think that's so fascinating to watch because, especially with the little lore we have, when making headcanons, a lot of ppl put vi in this position of carelessness and caitlyn reasoning her. but right now we're seeing the complete opposite because Vi had years to put her anger out in prison (bc of very unfortunate situations), but caitlyn not only is a person that is out in world while in her anger phase of grief, but also is on an authority position and has free access to weapons and is being manipulated by someone who is exploiting her anger to the extent of using outside army
#also i guess this is what happens when you don't study to understand the structural exploitative system folks#at the first tension you get blinded by anger to the point of dehumanizing ppl who were already being dehumanized#also I'd like to know how the show is going to handle this#bc i don't wanna have implicit messages which is frequently the case for a lot of media dealing with those topics#they very frequently don't go where they need to go. and we only have 6 episodes left so#I'm really curious and tense about ir#but we'll have to wait#screaming crying going insane#arcane#arcane season two#arcane s2#arcane season 2#arcane league of legends#arcane series#arcane show#caitlyn kiramman#arcane caitlyn#caitlyn arcane#vi arcane#arcane vi#caitvi#caitlyn and vi#vi and caitlyn#violyn

we truly regressed when people started buying into the genderbending is inherently transphobic thing. yeah that twelve year old being inquisitive and having fun on deviantart was your enemy all along.
#how did that even have a leg to stand on. when so many emerging trans folk literally began exploring gender because of it#ill never forget seeing a lone korean comment on fc2 under genderbend art talking about how they visit that picture every day after work#because it makes them feel understood#to even think of being beyond what you were born. in korea. my god i feel it in my spine just how lonely that ought to be#every time i see that rhetoric make rounds im reminded and equal amounts astounded#by how determined people are at making trans folk a monolith#and how there must be a Correct way to explore gender#if the discussion had stuck to the concept’s Capacity to be transphobic and not about inherently being so we’d have been better off.#& at the end of the day art shouldn’t always have to need such a disclaimer on selfhood to be worthy#in the same vein actors should not need to relinquish themselves to the public to act as a gay or trans character#I don’t know !#saw hatsune mikuo art in the year 2024 and the soul near jumped it’s been so long king 🙀#putting this in here because it’s sooort of art related no?#and people know where I stand on this so perhaps if anybody finds it uncomfortable they can gracefully disengage with me

blood blossom danny except i briefly talk about his version of the accident
It all happened so fast that Danny doesn't really remember dying at all. It was like, one moment he was alive, the next he's dead. He remembers hitting the button, and the lights coming on, and then a great big flash.
Then he was outside of the portal.
He thinks he may have been screaming, but that's not true at all. The only sound he made was a split-second, startled gasp as the portal turned on, that was cut-off before he could finish the noise. The only ones who were screaming were Sam and Tucker; Danny was dead before he could feel anything.
The most vivid thing to him was the terror before the light. The blood rushing moment of mind-numbing fear and cold revelation that he was going to die, and there was nothing he could do about it. A weird sort of resignation, desperation, horror, and static calm that hit him all at once.
He was extremely disoriented when he woke up. Like waking up from a long nap and struggling to comprehend what the day or time was, but knowing instinctively that time has passed. He didn't stay in his ghost form for that long either, further cementing his confusion.
From the moment he hit the button to the few minutes after he woke up is an unsolved jigsaw puzzle to him.
It took him about a day and a half to fully remember what happened beyond 'went into the portal, then suddenly i was out of it and everyone was freaking out', and then a week to process.
Sam and Tucker remember his accident better than he does. They say he was in a daze after he woke up, before he recognized where he was. And he kinda just... squinted at them like he didn't know who they were, and said something in a language they couldn't understand. He was terrifyingly calm and passive, and still smoking.
(They later find out its ghostspeak. He was asking them where he was.)
It was only the moment he realized where he was that he transformed back into human. That's the moment where Danny's memory officially cuts back in for him. His first time as a ghost, and he doesn't really remember it that well.
#dpxdc#danny fenton is not the ghost king#dp x dc#dpxdc crossover#danny fenton#danny phantom#dpxdc au#blood blossom au#thinking about danny's accident is so fun. and also this version might just be my favorite interpretation of it. subtle horror my beloved#danny was dead before he even hit the ground.#also he was eleven when this all happened folks. which is like. wow horrifying. lol. lmao even.#if you havent read the prequel oneshot you should know: the hazmat suit was too big for him. so it swamped him.#he looked like he was playing dress up. danny wonders if he could've made it out of the portal before it turned on if it weren't for how#heavy the boots were. he was wearing his mom's and even those were still a bit too big on him. his footsteps were clunky and slow.#just like how a man stabbed in the back doesnt scream but gasp. danny didn't make a sound when he died. he didn't have the time to#sam and tucker were living in a horror movie for like. a GOOD solid five minutes before danny came to#and even after danny was still pretty dazed. but at least he could like. recognize where he was. even if he wasn’t sure about it#also when sam and tucker got the portal off danny was not inside it. his ghost formed behind them#he was kneeling and misting off the shoulders. they only noticed him when he got to his feet

I dont think we as a society do enough with the fact that in current dc continuity the original story of how Damian was born is canon and that technically includes the bit were Talia gives Damian up for adoption as she thought that would be what's best for him bc there's a lot that can be done with this
#dc#talia al ghul#damian al ghul#damian wayne#dc comics#any universe with a white washed damian is bc talia accidentally picked up the wrong baby from the adoption center#and decided to love it like her own anyway#a universe like this is where ian comes from#but no honestly imagine the au possibilities#like an au were talia decided she missed her baby#but didnt want to go disturb him in his new life#so cloned him#and thats were the test tube damian comes from#au where damian was left with the adoption people#but still somehow ended up with bruce or dick later on#big reveal of holy fuck how is this kid bruces???#there's so much we can do here folks#(also just fyi i will not tolerate any talia hate here)#(i love her and she was trying to do what was best for Damian)

– this whole - the dancing, singing, pole...raising. it is all rather ridiculous... 'midsummer'. i fail to... see the point of this human... invention. for once.
arvo's words were slurred, uneven - as if merely letting them past his lips was a great effort... this was, no doubt, influenced by the drink in his hand, resting on his stomach. folke, who had, in fact, brewed the alcohol that they were drinking, giggled - not exactly sober himself.
– i'm... the only human here, arvo. remember...
– no kraksi, or crakam, in sartrill, raises a huge, leafy pole for long summer days, that much i know.
– okay, haha - the pole thing... the pole thing is entirely human, probably. but... gullmar - tomtar, celebrate 'solvarvir' around the same time... trolls celebrate, uh... oh, curses, i'll butcher it... 'rawr - owa'... rawrr - oh wra? rawr... haha!
arvo opened one of his eyes slowly, fighting against some kind of weight that has, somehow, been set upon them - in order to look at the human beside him, still struggling to pronounce the foreign word correctly. a corner of the basilisk's lips twitched upwards.
– hm. nevermind what i said. there is a certain element of entertainment present, i suppose...
#oc#original character#fantasy#midsummer#illustration#art#i would tag midsommar but. i know theres the movie so dont think thatll be very useful...#folklore#fantasy art#oc art#pareidolia tag#oc: folke#oc: arvo#oc: selma#oc: klint#oc: adrian#oc: ylvarg#oc: gullmar#oc: faství#frida and håkan are there too but theyre so small LOL#this is a bit late for a midsummer illustration but whatever#(one day late. LOL)#i kinda wanna mmake it a THing to draw a silly midsummer drawing every year. thing is#will there be a year where im 100% happy with the illustration afterwards. bcs im not satisfied with this but. WHATEVER#shoutout to anyone who remembers the drawing i did last year........#in universe btw some swedish holidays were definitely infuenced by the tomte/human connection#things like midsummer probably came to independently but their traditions got mixed once humans and tomtar began to intermingle a bit#trolls have their own summer celebrations but they tend to be less “1 day” and more like “several weeks” in length#also. this pic is a post story pic...#which is why arvo is actually expressing his befuddlement with human customs

as much as i LOVE egg-mode detroit androids (anything that makes these androids look more droidlike is a win) i yearn for androids with rubber mask skin and meticulously sewn-on hair, painted freckles and pores and blush. Sure, these things make them indistinguishable from a human which is counter to what i usually want but i just like the idea of synthetic flesh glued over a machine skeleton, a being that feels more deliberately crafted rather than recycled cosmetic programming.
But even better if the design is kinda unpolished and things are a lil off. the blush that's supposed to mimic a healthy glow actually mimics more of an eerie ventriloquist's dummy look. but i guess this is 2038 where technology and mass production needs won't cater to my very specific fantasy where androids appear kind of unreal and yet poetically (and cheesily) harbour so much realness and life within them
#I JUST THINK SHIT LIKE THAT IS COOL#this kind of went off-track#i was thinking about bio/shock rapture au again where connor has crudely painted-on eyebrows#i know you can convincingly paint or tattoo eyebrows on but R/apture folk were quite cartoonish about everything#like the corner curve of his eyebrows are too perfect and theyre done with glossy paint#an au that doesnt exist btw its just stewing in my brain muck

🏳️⚧️´ˎ˗ Transgirl regression, transboy regression and transneutral regression flags
ㅤ╰➝ Transgirlreg: a label for transfemmes who use their regression to have a girly childhood
ㅤ╰➝ Transboyreg: a label for transmascs who use their regression to have a boyish childhood
ㅤ╰➝ Transneureg: a label for trans folks who use their regression to have a gender neutral childhood
ㅤ╰➝ Meaning... purples for trans identity/transitioning, pinks for femininity, blues for masculinity, yellows for gender neutrality and white for regression as a coping mechanism.
ㅤ╰➝ Credits... Base by @bunnelbaby
#those last two agere flag posts were just a warmup#i have so many feelings regarding these labels#i feel like a lot of us are just trans folks trying to relive a childhood where we were treated like the gender we id with#or having the option to not be limited by gender binaries (that was my idea for the transneureg)#(which is my personal label)#agere#age regression#age regressor#sfw agere#agere sfw#sfw regressor#sfw regression#sfw age regression#sfw age regressor#age regression flags#agere flags#agere terms#trans regressor#girl regression#boy regression#neutral regression#blankiefort ★´ˎ˗#kitty scribbles ★´ˎ˗

on “Zutara is a colonizer x colonized ship”
“Colonizer” is not an ontological category. It’s a role within a specific geopolitical power dynamic, and therefore it can change — or even cease to exist — when these geopolitical power dynamics change (like when, idk, a Gaang of teenagers overthrow a genocidal imperialist colonial regime to install a new monarch who vows to stop the genocide and imperialism and colonization and bring about an era of love and peace)
I know it’s a bad faith anti argument, but it bothers me more than most anti Zutara arguments because I think it is indicative of a very pessimistic, defeatist attitude about power relations in general. Any type of oppressor is not a fixed role. It’s subject to change, and indeed ATLA’s message is that it’s your obligation — and your right, your power — to fight for that change, even if you’re just a ragtag group of kids against a whole empire. Calling Zuko a colonizer is not only a baffling misunderstanding of what colonization is, it also implies that even when you successfully challenge and restructure oppressive power dynamics, old sins cast long enough shadows that there is nothing you can do to be free of them. It’s one thing to acknowledge the complexities of a close relationship with someone who used to benefit from your oppression (indeed that’s kind of the whole arc of The Southern Raiders where Katara confronts the ways in which she has projected the trauma of her mother’s murder at the hands of the Fire Nation onto Zuko, who is now a valued ally). It’s quite another to claim that neither of you can ever escape the ontological categories of oppressor vs victim even if you’ve both changed the world.
#Also the water tribes were never even fucking colonies so even the premise is wrong but other folks have talked about that#The colonizer does not exist without the colonized that’s like anticolonialism 101#source: my anticolonialism seminar where I first read The Colonizer and the Colonized#Zutara#Zutara meta#atla fandom critical#Pro Zutara#anti anti Zutara#look what the antis made me do they made me type anti twice#my meta#ATLA colonization discourse#which apparently warrants a tag now lmao

*yeets this and runs*
My hand regrets my decision to try for more realistic wings, frankly
Transcriptions:
Mabel Pines - Steller's Jay
Dipper Pines - Blue Jay
fledglings
can't quite fly yet
wing's aren't adult-sized yet
Dipper often forgets to preen
Mabel likes to put glitter in her wings (and Dipper's, when possible)
Dipper collects his primaries to make quill pens
Mabel collects their feathers for crafting
Yeah so I'm just gonna drop this here and uhhhhh run, thanks for checking this, and I hope you have a good day
(program: krita; time taken: about 1 hr 45 minutes)
#eggin creatin'#dipper pines#mabel pines#gravity falls#first time drawing for gravity fallsa nd it's. it's a wing au. bro I've never drawn these characters before in my life but the VISION#they preen each other's wings your honor#they're gonna have tails btw I just. completely forgot them#basically with wings you get them from one parent or the other#twins often have the same kind of wings#not sure about the specifics as far as like. subspecies go#but anyway#dipper and mabel are both jays#their mother and father were probably jays#shermie was (is??) a raven his wife was a jay#ford and stan are magpies#filbrick was a magpie caryn was a raven#tldr the pines family consists of various corvids and that explains their penchant for trouble mischief and also family-motivated violence#hey fun fact magpies and some other corvids will teach their families to hate you if you upset them enough#just sayin man bill better stay dead#anyway yeah also mabel having steller's jay wings was solely because steller sounds like stellar#as in stars#and she's. well. shooting star and all that#as for dipper being a blue jay look man blue jays and pine trees they're just inseparable in my mind#there's something to be said about the stan twins and avarice/stubbornness/grudges I think and. magpies are kind of. stubborn critters#who also collect many shiny#and are oddly ride-or-die. also the aforementioned grudges#welcome to my au where all the explanation is in the tags#I'm just rambling now honestly#putting off actually watching gravity falls#yeah that's right folks it's wtst all over again I'm making stuff for a series I haven't watched/played yet!

TFTober 4 - Provision
#gopher art#tf2 pyro#team fortress 2#tftober#the funny thing is that i have a love hate relationship with pyrovision as a concept#when i first saw meet the pyro i took it as a visual metaphor for the extreme excitement and joy they find in arson rather than literal#hallucinations. however i do have an appreciation for headcanoning pyro as someone who experiences hallucinations#that is fascinating. but i dont like when folks say 'they think what they're doing is sunshine and bubblegum and pure sugary sweetness'#because. sure they're whimsical but it doesnt really come across that way to me#and i feel really odd about taking pyro's agency away from them narratively anyway#like they're really not very focused on usually. so id like what little they do to actually be their own conscious choices#rather than them stumbling into situations like an infant#anyway my thought was 'it would be very funny if the vibes of the Reality and Pyroland segments of MtP were swapped'#so here is a pastel and bubbly reality vs the burning hellscape of pyroland where pyro is prince/ss

Episode 4 spoilers ahead-- some quick anatomy illustrations I made!
Sorry the body isn’t terribly detailed, but here’s his basic anatomy in his Coolguy form! In his mid-form he’s much closer to normal tall human height, perfect for, say, resting your head on his chest UwU
Snake yawn.gif -->
#reese kelly#scarlet hollow#monster anatomy#indie horror game#need I remind you this is one of our dateable characters#and not even the only monster#horror visual novel#indie game development#some folks were having trouble parsing the way he fits together#so I made this little guide!#I don't know if it's actually helpful#I am a terrible teacher tbh#I have run animal drawing workshops where I break down the evolution of all vertebrates to help explain how to draw animals#as you can imagine eight year olds do not benefit from this
