wondering if any moots are into chrono trigger / chrono cross ...

[phanyu]

Rewatched gay and not proud just now and the part at the end where he's talking to his teenage self (or rather, AT his teenage self, since as he says in the video, he can't go back and tell himself the things he needed to hear back then) and then he walks back through the closet and immediately starts calling out for Phil has ruined my entire night. I was having a good time and now I'm just spinning this around in my head

gawd....... the thing that gets me about moments like that in more sanitized, "official" content (like this vid, hometown showdown, etc) is that like. soooooooooo much thought and back and forth probably went on behind the scenes about every bit of interaction between him and phil. they're more than aware that those bits are going to take the cake in terms of engagement and that just isn't what this particular story is about, so it's all done with so much restraint to acknowledge obviously the way that phil is inextricable to the story of dan without making that THE story being told...... and yet for so much affection and importance to shine through even with the reins being held so tight T___T <3

I hadn't spotted these a year ago:

Oh my god, guys???!!! Parallels:

2. These are the same face - the Depression Face.

It tugs at my heart like nothing else, because...

3. Oooh never paid attention to this:

4. These lil' guys were moving and animated while sleeping here, aww:

5. The screenshot below, to me, is foreshadowing that Hunter may have expressed his wish to study at Hexside...but once that wish is actually granted, he too is gonna be depressed - at school, specifically - for months, and frustrated that he simply cannot be enthusiastic about classes the way he initially hoped. He'll push and push himself and judge himself for why he "can't even" enjoy lessons he's supposed to be excited about:

6. Do you think they took Hunter to the zoo's bird hall, before he carved Waffles (I personally view it as a good element of exposure therapy)? :

7. People usually put the S1 screenshot of Luz drawing light glyphs, next to the one with Flapjack fading away...but I saw this too:

It makes me wanna chew extra recycled cardboard about Luz and Flapjack parallels, specifically. Because of what they both offered to the world, if you think about it:

8. If Camila went through an outfit change like this in her nightmare:

Imagine the mayhem of Hunter's many nightmares with his many outfits :S

9. A really good reference for how Hunter healed pre-timeskip, is this sequence, where the order has been altered a bit below:

(who knows, maybe Willow recorded a lot of vids of him on her scroll T___T)

10. Wow this sums up the show doesn't it:

11. Ugh you can't tell me that...they wouldn't have had a similar-ish mirror scene with Waffles and older Hunter to these, if we had a full S3 or more seasons:

Him approaching a mirror with no palisman beside him...I can't imagine how that was in those horrible months. (Maybe he does this before heading out to conduct a Palisman Adoption Day)

12. I feel really happy, confidently believing that he unlearned this body language:

in the presence of adults, especially his new parental figures. Coercive control wasn't a dominating theme in his life anymore. And while we didn't see it onscreen, he would've found the space to even initiate connection via physical touch with his parents, like what Luz naturally does here:

I say "physical touch" specifically, because to quote @idlescree's amazing video analyses, Hunter's own physical body - not just his mind - was the ultimate and most intimate battleground for Belos to exert control, by possessing Hunter and using him as a puppet in the most direct way possible. So for Hunter to get physically close to family to express love after Flapjack's death, in spite of terrible spooky thoughts that he might still gravely injure others...that isn't a small feat at all.

13. I think his casual sweater is a plain gold colour, and his cosplay outfit has its yellow colour: because he's still influenced by Belos.

The black of the wolf tee and in the cosplay, feel to me like foreshadowing of his post-possession grief. Even after Flapjack is gone, Hunter still thinks about Belos and is still walking around in the same cosplay outfit. His newfound freedom and healing is reflected in his timeskip design (calm midtones of orange and blue): when Belos has no more hold on him via a painful history. We would see a progression from the predominant darkness of the black colour to those peaceful midtones on his clothing.

14. Best one saved for last! It's a headcanon, but I draw a few connections. @childlikegoblinqueen and I were talking about him likely returning to the place where poor Flapjack was slain, even if it takes a number of years before he can do so. Waffles will be with him.

Imagine...instead of running frantically in the night:

he calmly strolls during a beautiful Halloween evening, with autumn leaves blowing in the wind once again:

There are no horrors awaiting him, and very importantly, he can believe that.

And he visits the spot at the lake, and puts his hand to his chest:

but for once, he can smile while doing that specific gesture. All the times that he has put a hand to his heart in the show, he wasn't smiling (link). He then leaves and then returns to his family (walking in the opposite direction of the portal above) to have an actually joyful Halloween celebration.

Catharsis moment for the shifters trio in 'Bertolt survived AU '

I love them so much

this is the smallest thing I can do for these babies (இ﹏இ`｡)

I've been thinking about this AU and scene for so long and I'm so happy that I finally made it a reality. I'm not used to drawing angsty stuff, so I mostly sobbed pathetically all the time imagining the storm of emotions the three of them would get through in this scene  T___T

no-text version are available on my b00sty for free 

Highres versions are posted there for a coin =)

Long story short: I was flirting with the possibility what if the syringe in s3 ep18 got broken. Armin and Erwin die. Hange takes a risky decision - to leave Bert alive and imprison him instead to find out more about titans.

At first Bert is not willing to cooperate, and communication fails. But gradually they become kinda friends with Hange. He remains imprisoned but is not treated like a prisoner anymore. Hange visits him regularly and even brings him books from Marley survey mission. Bert tells some common things about titans that Hange doesn���t know tho.

When the Rumbling begins, Bert hears Eren's command, addressed to the titans in the walls, and being the holder of essentially the same titan*, he transforms, following the command, destroying the place of his imprisonment. But, unlike other titans, Bert has the mind and will so he fights Eren’s command and doesn’t join other titans. Then he accidentally finds Annie at a fair in the nearest town, and then together they encounter Reiner and other characters in the forest.

The scene on the art is an alternate s4 ep25, the trio finally reunites after 4 years during which Reiner thought Bertolt was dead and Annie was listed as missing.

* - i once came across a short comics with this idea, and I liked it a lot so I decided to pick it up and adjust to my AU only that it that comics Bert joined other titans. I wanted to add a link to this comics but failed to find it. Maybe someone will recognize it and send me a link? UPD I found this comic!

I’m not able to draw without making plots behind an art in my head xD

Still not over the greatness of this series...and how late I am with fangirling over it <____<

Just a collection of scene redraws/character practices with those adorable furballs (well, mostly Sam and Guy). Nothing special. Just had fun drawing them. It's what I love doing most. Drawing (and creating my own) non-human characters.

I just love those two dorks. They've become my new comfort characters. Especially Guy. He's so damn relatable for me on a personal level, it always hurts seeing him fail again and again T___T

Inspired by the beach scene from near the end of Final Fantasy 16. Probably the most romantic and beautiful scene I've ever witnessed in a video game. T_T It was so intimate yet showcasing nothing but pure love for the other. These two are going to be the death of me... I swear.... Gah! Just perfect. T___T

Also, I wrote a fict based on this a bit awhile back but be warned, it's rated M.

[beachy--head]

Hi! I'm new to the Japril fandom (and I'm OBSESSSSSED with them T___T they're insane!!). I just wanted to ask if you have any japril fic recommendations <33

I really wanted to see more introspection on their feelings in-show and hear more dialogue and the loving speeches that other couples got (like imagine a scene where April talks to Arizona about how (while she is, ofc, her own person) Jackson's a big part of who she is and he's her safe space or something AAAA the pAIN ifl it was Jackson verbalizing the feelings more--correct me if I'm wrong tho!) Real bummer because this couple was the best *cries* so I'm trying to fill the canon void with fics. Anyway, yeah, thanks so much for your time and also I love love your writing!!!

Hi, and welcome to the Japril experience! You're in for loads of fun :)

I do have a lot of fics to recommend! Too many, in fact. I need to do a proper (and massive) recs post!

You can't go wrong with anything written by @japril12, @japrilfools, @rose-marie-rose, @trulisthetic, @japrilmusings, @doctorkepner , @aprilandjackson or @afarawayfellow , to name a few! You can also head to my bookmarks on AO3 or ff.net to find some of my favorites. As for your specific request, I'm drawing a blank right now, but I'm going to think about it and post some recommendations if anything comes to mind!

[ribchillz]

balloon dog so real. If I could die and reincarnate as something I'd be a balloon dog.

YEAAHHHH THAT’S WHAT I’M SAYING‼️‼️ bro balloon dogs are so cute and simple and like ever since I saw killer klowns from outer space in like that one scene where they made a balloon dog and was brought to life and acted like a bloodhound and started jumping around and barking I thought that was the cutest shit ever bro I WANT A DOG LIKE THAT T___T

Hello, Myrtle🖤

You know, after your latest BECK update, I was wondering if you're planning to add more Edna and Freya moments through Annie's eyes (or better say, memories)? I really, really, really love this moment of previous shifters haunting the character in the present - we don't have anything of that sort about Annie, and sometimes I even feel like it's a very overlooked topic of her being a Warrior and inheriting the Titan at a VERY young age (younger than anyone else).

Of course, it's for obvious reasons why, but I'm just so, so, so glad you touch this topic and develop it. The latest BECK update is incredible, and because of the scene there, I was just wondering if Edna and Freya will appear in Annie's nightmares more, since it also seems like you've thought through this plotline 👀

And thank you for writing and sharing this story, Myrtle, this is absolutely fantastic read🖤

Have a great day!

Hello, Anna!!💜💜

I'm so glad to hear you say this, because I was so very nervous to add these elements to Annie's story T___T

In canon, titan memories play such a crucial role to some characters' arcs, like Eren, Armin and Porco, and even others like Zeke and Gabi are largely motivated by their relationship to their predecessor (or to her would-be predecessor in Gabi's case). This always made me wonder what was Annie's story in all this. Did she have any leftover memories? And if yes, what kind? Did she hate her predecessors? Admire them? Did she know them while they were alive? Did they have a good relationship or no?

Thus, Edna and Freya were born.

The characters will in fact return in future chapters, maybe not necessarily in the form of nightmares, but there will be more memories presented as seen through Annie's eyes. As you said, I've thought about their stories quite a lot, and while I plan to reveal less about them than in my original outline (where I felt like they were dominating the second part of the story), I still intend to explore their experiences, with Annie always as the focal point. Through these two, I also want to shed some light into how life was like for the Eldians in Marley before the time that we see in canon.

I hope I can do this justice!!

I am stuck having THOUGHTS.

Thoughts about how quickly Luz rushed on over to save Collector, screaming their title/name right before in a panic.

Thoughts about how King was a little slow with the "No", but how it clearly wasn't meant for Luz, but for Collector possibly dying. How, even in a feral state he protected Collector first and foremost.

How Eda ensured Collector was nudged away from her when she went feral, and how the Owl Beast was clearly also in pain at losing Luz but refusing to hurt the child they now know is innocent of the crimes their siblings committed.

How Luz, in her Titan Form, included him in the barrier alongside her two family members before she launched them all away from Belos.

These three really did teach this kid a valuable life lesson and adopt them huh?

Oh man you describe everything so nicely!!😭

Luz's voice when she cried for Collector!😩👌 So much fear and urgency IMAJSUTGHFD

Honestly I thought King's 'no' was for Luz, but you are right, he reacted way to quickly if it was for Luz!! Oh my GOD this scene now feels even SADDER T__T

And Eda barely holding for the last straws of control, carefully nudging them to the side before she fully snaps!!T___T

And YEEES Luz having Eda, King AND Collector in her bubble!! Of course she would shield them! But they looked so nice and organic with everyone!! Holding for Luz's cape!!

And people wonder why others wanted Collector to be adopted!!

He would have been perfect for the family of weirdos!😭

Saying I'm sorry for that night

Maybe it was the way you held his hand with every care in the world. Warm like the sun, soft like a feather. Grasping onto each other as if no one existed but you and him. Maybe it was the way your eyes light up as if the galaxy fits in them. Clear as a day, loving as ever.

No one knows what, but for Jake you are everything. Which is why he's been waiting at the front door of your house on a chilly evening with nothing to keep warm but the thin wool scarf and hoodie. Basking in the snow, waiting for you to return home.

78 missed calls. 156 texts. 230 chats.

Despite every attempt to reach you, he didn't get any response on your end as if you dropped out of the surface of the earth. That's why his last resort was to visit you only to find you were out the whole day. The locks were changed so his attempt to use the spare keys were a fail.

Another hours passed by and it felt like nothing to him, Jake fell asleep at a side like a kicked puppy until he heard you fidgeting at your keys against the doorknob. It took a moment for Y/N to realize that it was Jake. Flickering her gaze back in an attempt to see as Jake stood up.

"...Why are you here" She asks "Y/N, I-..." "No" "I, -I came back to apologize, Y/N" a moment of pause as you held back, fuming with every might to slap him right then and there, Jake noticed the tears in your eyes, the way your fist balled with anger, ready to take him, he inches towards you defenseless "Punch me, kick me or whatever I don't care" He invites, holding your palms against his face "I don't care if you hurt me, hell I'd even jump at a bridge if you say so but please Y/N," he pleaded, grasping your palms "Please forgive me Y/N" he continues, almost like a whisper. "You're fucking sick if you think I would forgive you Jake" Y/N spat back. piercing her gaze back at Jake's attempt to apologize "You're a heartless jerk who knows nothing but to break people who only wants to love you, Jake" "I know that Y/N! that's why I'm here to apologize!, that's why I'm here to fix everything!, because," He breathes in, lungs collapsing as he tries to formulate sentence "...Because if not I would lose you and I don't want that!" he continues, tears rolled down his face while his palms still firm at yours Your hands ran down your face, anger or resentment, whatever it was was everything boiling under your stomach, coiling up your chest "For fucks sake..." You breathed in "You left me alright?-" You attempted to continue as he talked you down "I chose to leave for us!" "No! You chose for yourself, Jake! I was ready to marry you and all you had to do was show up at the aisle, but no...

I fucking waited but you never showed up, so you attempting to reconcile or apologize for whatever fucking reason is absurd! Do you even hear yourself right now?!" You continued, he bit his lower lip, whimpering to stop himself from sobbing down at your frame. You sighed, attempting to remove his hold at yours "Go home Jake, you're drunk" "I'm not drunk Y/N please! please listen to me!" He holds you firm at your shoulders against the wall "Please Jake, spare me, I'm already tired from work, I just wanna take a rest, I just-" The tension that built up from your chest bursts as you continued to cry, falling on your knees, burying your face beneath your arms "Oh God, please I'm so tired, I just wanna be left alone!" You pleaded This scene infront of Jake made him broke. Like tiny little needles piercing his heart, drenched in acid, punched in the gut, it was everything but pain, You were in pain. "Please let me help you to bed then I promise I will leave" Jake leans down as he kisses the top of your head, defeated you gave him your keys as he pry the door open.

(been sitting on my notes T___T here's a runaway Jake groom)

So, with this one we now actually reached the last picture of the regular Inktober. After this I do the announced Edgar Allan Poe Creeptober for the last remaining 7 days.

So this last one now brings us to Dragon Age one more time. With "shallow" I at first was about to go for Crestwood or the Fallow Mire. However in the end I decided to go for this scene instead.

A little bit of backstory from Carl's side of which I eventually wanted to make a little comic, once I am done with some of the other current projects.

The story as I got it so far - without wanting to spoiler too many details - was that Carl and his brother Jon got lost in the swamps at some point during their childhood and having to find their way out of it on their own.

We've seen Jon as I got him DA before during the first part of Heavens Wrath actually. However this is the first time I draw the brothers together as kids. Glad I ended up deciding to go for this scenery. Kinda in love how the boys turned out (Mini-Clover's way too precious, I freaking swear T___T)

Also glad I managed that torch effect. From the entire artwork that bit actually was the most challenging bit.

[kneelingshadowsalome]

I was listening to music while working today & the song "Jaws" by Sleep Token came on...& all your stories just started flooding my mind (cause I've been binging them all lately) & I started debating who does the song fit best...it feels like such a hot but desperate song...

what do you think, who does it fit the most?

Oh my GOD

You guys are killing me T___T First of all I'm so moved, you heard this song and it brought my stories to your mind?! Gahh 🩷💔🩷

I think this one might fit Sarah & Simon, also brat x Ghost in Anhedonia... But most of all, this song screams König!

It's his thoughts when he sees Engel for the first time (a little spoiler since I'm planning to do a K pov take on that scene in the future). He sees in her something heartbreakingly familiar; his own hunger, the loneliness he knows so well, the desperation, he sees in her eyes what happens when people don't understand and see who you really are... This song is so tragic but also so beautiful and after I saw the music video I was like "Yep! König & Engel 100%"

So @evil-squint-etc another one for the König playlist...? 💕
