Im soooo weak to when Bond is like casually being used or exploited at his expense for some ostensible Greater Good except the situation doesn't HAVE to come to that, not really, and he's so inured and even numb to it that he barely pays it any mind; meanwhile, Q absolutely minds and is very indignant on his behalf and works overtime to like either try to avert or forestall the situation before it gets to the point where Bond has to dig his own claws into more of his soft underbelly to offer up on the sacrificial alter of politics of all tawdry things, or to manufacture a way in which he does the needless "needful" so as to spare Bond at least one unnecessary additional wound upon his psyche.
bonus if Bond finds out and maybe after being angry or indignant about it - I don't need you to do my job for me, Q, this is what I'm here to do - and either Q tells him/lets slip or he deduces that like, this isn't Q thinking he can't get the job done, this is Q finding him precious and worthy of protecting, and like. he's just very in awe of that and does in fact feel very safe and cherished within the cradle of his Quartermaster's regard
#00q#of like... yes it's constant surveillance. but also it's like. constantly having a companion & constantly having an all-seeing eye#looking out for you and reaching out to influence your life#I'd imagine it's very like religion (*puts a Bond thought bubble on this*)#it's the Take Me to Church-ism of it all#lmao I didn't start this off as a web-weaving but now I'm weaving it into a web#but yeah in this fic - looked it up it's Playing the Part - this other rando agent is like. is he in your ear rn? the Quartermaster?#and the guy is like. I don't know how you handle it‚ being under his watch all the time. I know he's supposed to be your guardian angel but#I hope I never come to his attention‚ I don't want him to care enough to know a thing about me.#and it's sooo so interesting in the context of Q and this like. pathological need for omniscience we often assign him#cuz yeah it COULD be very oppressive and overbearing#but like. I think it complements Bond's Ambiguous Disorders a lot bc it WOULD read to Bond as Caring#like so much of his life doesn't belong to himself anyway so a lot of the puppeting is old hat#but what a novelty to have someone who does it not because they want something from him or because of what he can do for them#but because they care so deeply about *him* as to want to do right by him and look out for his well-being#also sidebar'ing back but like there's a lot stupid about Business English but 'do the needful' is probably one of if not THE dumbest thing#I've ever heard or seen in my life. like. absolute epitome of garbage bullshit bureaucracy-speak nonsense and I know I'm getting into dicey#territory cuz despite whatever origin it may have had it's seen more today as an Indianism. but still like in and of itself it's such#a dumb phrase. and speaks to such a height of bureacracy & it's like. you don't have to say it like that. there are other words you can use#okay anyway. back to 00q#somehow I've brought this into 'blasphemy but make it sexy. as a treat' lmao but yeah... Q as Bond's wrathful & jealous God....#WAIT another web weaving. Ulysses when Bond is like. no not a guardian angel. Q is his patron deity his household god. mm yes *chefs kiss*

I saw a post once talking about a bingqiu scott pilgrim au where LBH had to fight all of SQQ's suitors, which is a cool concept and all, but have you considered the comedic potential and insanity of a bingyuan Scott pilgrim au where SY has to defeat LITERALLY HUNDREDS of bingge's exes??
#just put him through the ringer!#make it even more baffling where shen yuan just thinks he started dating this really cool and mysterious guy in the modern world#but then oop! all these magical evil exes start appearing through portals super angry that binghe abandoned them for his shizun world hunt#now i know what you might be thinking#how does a hermit like shen yuan beat all these wives?#its because he's in the unexplainable world of scott pilgrim battle rules of course!#so its a mixture of outsmarting them in dumb ways and video game logic powers#so then its binghes turn to be baffled#“... i thought you said cultivation and magic doesnt exist in your world?”#“it doesnt.”#“you just punched that woman so hard she exploded into coins...”#svsss#scum villains self saving system#shen qingqiu#luo binghe#bingqiu#bingyuan#shen yuan#luo bingge

I haven't seen any posts about this yet but l've seen some fan art that makes me feel this needs to be said:
Don't forget Leah Sava Jeffries has darker skin when making Annabeth Chase fan art!
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/271aeadbaa93b46172b7fbe165136caf/640fbf13e1aa05e8-39/s540x810/3308bd4ae5739ad81a0634356bbf6932672b4c04.jpg)
She is much closer to Lupita Nyong'o than Zoe Kravitz when it comes to shading, reflection, and complementary color usage :).
Lighting for dark skin is different on light skin. Light skin gets changed by lighting, and dark skin reflects the lighting. Below is a lovely shot of Nyong'o's character from Wakanda Forever in mourning. The filmmakers emphasize the umber qualities of her skin in contrast to the funereal white and (arguably harsh) light across her shoulder below.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/191c3b6796949a05bb861b787048e687/640fbf13e1aa05e8-05/s540x810/84b90d9739bd75b245904382220abc6697bfd424.jpg)
Try to pick spots that aren't directly in or near the light, and try mixing 3 or more! You can put it into a color mixer online, or even color pick, lower the opacity, and lay the shades over each other until you find one that fits. And of course, the more 'realistic' you want to go with shading and lighting, the more shades you're going to want to be able to explore vivaciously :D.
Let's take a look at the same 3 beautiful actresses I mentioned at the beginning, with a bad color picked area and a better-ish color picked area. (Please keep in mind, these are not perfect comparisons, as I was not able to find pictures of all 3 actresses under the same kind of lighting.)
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/f4351275fa9aa25dd42bd7fa98b0a885/640fbf13e1aa05e8-03/s540x810/c9585d9aa2e271e3b3af7ae2d7f56655a230a271.jpg)
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/a53a518fee5f1feceeb74af6c3a585f9/640fbf13e1aa05e8-28/s540x810/2beb5eba65a477601e4edbae95af86ae27a97291.jpg)
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/9e21d3075509535d3cfcaee37c8a675b/640fbf13e1aa05e8-aa/s540x810/894b81a46f219d86f7f7bc142be2d11397ef0087.jpg)
Kravitz's has a clear difference between the two, but they aren't too far apart, in comparison to Nyong’o’s and Jeffries’s. Note the dullness in the poorly picked shades as opposed to the better ones. Also keep in mind that while Kravitz has a rosy undertone (at least in that picture - it’s from The Batman, which has stylized coloring) Nyong’o has a slight cool undertone (I can’t pin down quite what, but the picture is definitely not stylized like Kravitz’s).
Jeffries runs more ochre or russet, but neither of those are pink. They are more red than terracotta or umber, but to call Jeffries’s face rosy would be wrong. Err more towards the golden when drawing her.
^^saved an image from a writing tutorial long ago, but can’t seem to find it. If someone recognizes it, I’ll link it. EDIT: it’s from this post. Thanks @autumnrowancollector ! <3
And also, the darker skin gets, the less likely warm undertones are going to appear. Don't be afraid to use blue or purple or even green on occasion!
Additionally, cool lighting on dark skin is always a win imo.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/e4dd8648adcd514f212f3e07b4cc06f3/640fbf13e1aa05e8-54/s400x600/91cd5ab5a3de203a17b4a66bbe390c8a8984851b.jpg)
(I was going to use that picture of Jeffries as Annabeth by the lightning bolt, but then I realized the lighting on her face doesn’t quite match up with where it should hit from that angle, and I realized they kind of just turned everything bluer, so screenshot time!)
(Also if you want another really great live action example, check out anything Aldis Hodge is in, like Leverage and Black Adam)(and of course there’s Spiderverse <3 but I want to post pictures of Hodge)
Now, to here’s a list of more experienced people’s advice:
Black facial features & hair
Shading digitally for a (somewhat) monotone Black character
Stylistic choices and places to start looking for inspiration (besides a search engine).
Coloring Black people’s lips
A better coloration tutorial
Also a nice tutorial for Indigenous skin tones, just in case yall want to draw Piper or use this information for other dark skinned characters :).
EDIT: Some actresses who are closer in skintone to use for Annabeth, provided by the lovely @blackfemmecharacterdependency ! If you can’t find a reference for Jeffries in a specific lighting, maybe check out these ladies’ pictures! It’s a reblog, so scroll down.
TLDR: Don’t make Annabeth pink and pale, make her dark and golden.
#Annabeth chase#Percy Jackson#percabeth#leah sava jeffries#pjo#leah jeffries#art tutorial#percy jackon and the olympians#I love superheroes and so of course all of the actors I thought of were from superhero movies lmao#also for the record my advice is mostly from reading others’ tutorials and observation#and I don’t really use it a lot because I stick to lineart a lot lol#like down to mentioning Hodge (love himmmm) as a reference for good lighting on dark skin#there’s another post floating around here that specifically mentions him and Leverage for that#I’m tagging this as an art tutorial but really i want it to be more of a master post#master post so yall can see the tutorials I usually use#but then I ended up writing about Jeffries specifically because I’m dumb#I wanted to go to sleep four hours ago I’m dumb#I really want to draw her and ginger Percy but#irl it’s starting to get busy at school again :/

Wednesday, bursting through the door holding an urn: I found human remains at Goodwill.
Enid: I’m sorry, what?
Wednesday: Someone donated an urn to Goodwill and the ashes are still in it.
Enid: And so you decided to buy human ashes?
Wednesday: Yes.
Enid: From Goodwill?
Wednesday: Yes.
Enid:
Enid: I’m not even surprised.
Wednesday: Her name is Judith, I’m hoping she’ll haunt us.
Enid, in disgruntled acceptance: Yeah I know babe.
#and that is the story of how Judith the ghost started haunting ophelia hall#and she’s still there when wenclairs kids attend#and she tells them stories about all the dumb shit their moms did when they were at school#how is this becoming a fic prompt?#i honestly just thought it was funny but there’s potential here ngl#wednesday#wednesday addams#enid sinclair#wenclair#enid x wednesday#wednesday netflix#wednesday 2022#incorrect wednesday quotes#incorrect wednesday addams#incorrect wednesday#incorrect wenclair#ptbv

i will never forgive totk for giving us 5 minutes of zelda being excited and confident about her actual interests right at the start only to yank her away for the rest of the game and into the scared puppy eyed little maiden role standing uncomfortably besides the cool new guy™️
like is it actually a genuis tragic move of the writers to let her yet again not be allowed to be anything but a puppy eyed sacrificial maiden or is it just … bad writing how do i explain that i care so much about zelda that totk made me care not even a little bit about anyone but master koga bc of how it was written
i was more emotionally invested trying to get a chicken out of a well than i was with totks story or new characters (if you take the yiga out of the equation)
(and no, finding a few scraps of text, you have to grind to find, telling me that actualyl she had so much fun there and did like .. one thing with an some sort of never seen or otherwise hinted at construct and omg she totally was integrated like famillyy and found friends we never see isnt remedying anything imo)
#ganondoodles talks#zelda#totk#ganondoodles rants#not a long rant#but i saw a screenshot of totk zelda at the start of the story#and the post called her the most developed zelda theres ever been#well .. SHE COULD BE#THE POTENTIAL IS THERE BUT THEY DONT DO SHIT WITH HER EXCEPT FIND DUMB EXCUSES TO GET HER TO BE BASICALLY IRRELEVANT FOR THE ENTIRE GAME#tetra was also done dirty on occasion but i feel like she was a better zelda than totk zelda#anyway im repeating myself#jsut needed to get that out bc i ... will never stop getting angry at the thought of what she could have been#and what the real thing was in the end

I have 3 ideas for comics for the pain sharing linked universe au, two are bittersweet and one is dumb/funny, but I'm stuck trying to decide which one to draw first 🤔
Both bittersweet comics are, somehow (and completely accidentally) twilight centric lmao like *hits twilight on the back* this baby can fit so much physical and emotional pain
#the dumb somic i already mentioned it earlier through an ask#but it's about the different links and their lactose intolerance LMAO#i just know wind and sky are lactose intolerant but believe it's normal to feel THE WORSR TUMMY ACHE EVER after eating milk based products#like why do u guys mean u don't feel agonizing stomach cramps after drinking lon lon milk i thought it was part of the deal#as someone who is lactose intolerant though the pain isn't a deterrent so i suppose i get it lol#should i start tagging my posts about this au#i'll tag them as#lu pain sharing au#that way u can find all the ramblings about it on my blog lol#miry's yapping

I am very excited for Unend and I have absolutely no insight into what it will entail but I do want to offer a gentle warning regarding what I'd like to call, for the CR audience anyway, the Campaign 1 to Campaign 2 problem.
I found in the early-ish days of Campaign 2 there was an immense focus from some parts of the fandom on what previously seen characters were doing, rather than the current cast of characters, and at times a bitterness that we weren't just showing the same characters 25 years down the line. Which was silly, because we got a great story with new great characters and saw the world grow before our eyes, and there were even some small nods without them overshadowing something new and exciting.
I feel this way about Unend: again, I know nothing, but I don't think it will be heavily focused on characters introduced in Midst or Moonward at all. I think it's an opportunity for a new cast of characters to explore new things in the same world. While I suspect the islet of Midst may show up simply because it's a strategic location for an exploration vessel to stop given how the cosmos work, the story is explicitly going to be taking place as far away from Midst as possible, since they're trying to find the extremes of the cosmos, not the middle. I don't think we're checking in extensively with past characters, and I think that's great! Get excited for new ones!
#i'm starting to develop some thoughts (scary i know) about like. lore v. character-focused perspectives#bc i consider myself very much both but. i know we're on the blorbo website and the dumb worldbuilding priorities website#but i do think you need to be both to have any good takes on sf#which dovetails into another thought i have about the erosion of genre boundaries in favor of following the shipping#anyway i gotta go to work#i am going to maintag this i think#midst#midst podcast#unend
