In the nicest way possible bc I actually think this is a good thing but I can get how it wouldn't come across that way

That staring straight on pic is like the energy when your weird sibling/friend in elementary school is kinda hyper and trying to scare you by making faces

From a young age I knew I wanted to make weird faces at my friends frequently and with great aplomb

i admit i sometimes get weirdly fixated on small details in works of fiction, that doesn’t really matter (like that time i was stressed about the system of governance in an anime gacha game)

and just so you know i’ll be the 1st one to scream about “suspension of disbelief” and cheer for “the rule of cool”, and so i swear i won’t talk about this again

but i realized that i don’t really know and have very little visual reference on how you would fully bandage a hand, with each finger etc and so i went looking

and i guess points to MC for finding what seems like the least convenient way to cover your hands if you aim to prevent skin to skin contact, but the most dramatic one for sure

well I for one can definitely appreciate the diehard commitment to the aesthetic as a canon character trait

i’m traveling to this city, bag full of different sized bandages, no long sleeves and i don’t care how many people i can drive mad as long as i look mysterious as fuck

i appreciate the attempts a lot of game devs are making with gender neutral character creation, and i appreciate that it's actually a very difficult task to implement that depending on the game's base code. but it's so funny to me when you hear an uproar because some game has "entirely removed the gender option from character creation!!!!!" so you go to check it out and its just like

What i was ACTUALLY looking to post was.. THEM.... I'm bored and I miss them so look at my OCs!!!! Errrr info under cut,,,

SOOOO these fellas are from a world I've been cookin'. They live in Misty Hills Sanatorium together! The first one is Koyumi. She is a porcelain Geisha doll brought to life by the demon in MHS. Next is Norman, who previously owned Koyumi and accidentally dropped and broke her when the virus took his life. Then there's Billy, the head doctor's son, who had his infected head replaced by a buck head. Alice (and her mutated frog Duckduck who is not shown) died in a cave-in and were given new life by the demon. Then there's Tucker, Billy's dad, who has a homosexually charged relationship with the demon of MHS, Peter (pictured as a shadow behind him). Tucker is very shy and very weird and yes he and his son wear the same shirt.

Please ask me about them if u want I have. A Google doc.

just a friendly reminder that, just because slavery was formally "abolished" in the so-called united states* in 1865, enslavement itself is still ongoing in the form of incarceration, which disproportionately affects Black and Indigenous people

husband!gojosatoru who loves to stare at you in the eyes because despite dating for 4 years and being married for 5, he knows it still has you squirming in your place.

but who can blame you? his eyes just didnt seem human! they were so prettily blue and so enchanting, it felt like it was unnatural to have a god like him gazing upon a mortal like you.

husband!gojosatoru who also gets shy when you stare at back him too long because he thinks you’re just too perfect. what if those pretty eyes of yours get tired? he squishes your cheeks together, telling you to look elsewhere cus he might just start acting up the longer you stare.

“baby, close your eyes!”

“but i thought you liked staring?”

“only when it’s meeeeeee” your husband would whine, covering your eyes with his hand because he’d be too embarrassed if you see his cheeks dusted with the cutest shade of pink when he’s the one who’s been trying to make you blush.

probably time for this story i guess but when i was a kid there was a summer that my brother was really into making smoothies and milkshakes. part of this was that we didn't have AC and couldn't afford to run fans all day so it was kind of important to get good at making Cool Down Concoctions.

we also had a patch of mint, and he had two impressionable little sisters who had the attitude of "fuck it, might as well."

at one point, for fun, this 16 year old boy with a dream in his eye and scientific fervor in heart just wanted to see how far one could push the idea of "vanilla mint smoothie". how much vanilla extract and how much mint can go into a blender before it truly is inedible.

the answer is 3 cups of vanilla extract, 1/2 cup milk alternative, and about 50 sprigs (not leaves, whole spring) of mint. add ice and the courage of a child. idk, it was summer and we were bored.

the word i would use to describe the feeling of drinking it would maybe be "violent" or perhaps, like. "triangular." my nose felt pristine. inhaling following the first sip was like trying to sculpt a new face. i was ensconced in a mesh of horror. it was something beyond taste. for years after, i assumed those commercials that said "this is how it feels to chew five gum" were referencing the exact experience of this singular viscous smoothie.

what's worse is that we knew our mother would hate that we wasted so much vanilla extract. so we had to make it worth it. we had to actually finish the drink. it wasn't "wasting" it if we actually drank it, right? we huddled around outside in the blistering sun, gagging and passing around a single green potion, shivering with disgust. each sip was transcendent, but in a sort of non-euclidean way. i think this is where i lost my binary gender. it eroded certain parts of me in an acidic gut ecology collapse.

here's the thing about love and trust: the next day my brother made a different shake, and i drank it without complaint. it's been like 15 years. he's now a genuinely skilled cook. sometimes one of the three of us will fuck up in the kitchen or find something horrible or make a terrible smoothie mistake and then we pass it to each other, single potion bottle, and we say try it it's delicious. it always smells disgusting. and then, cerimonious, we drink it together. because that's what family does.
