remember when i used to never read aus and then i read one and now i only read aus
#it was probably me changing fandoms honestly#the wof fandom mostly had fics that were completely outside of the main series#with the main protags mentioned in an of hand remark or sometimes set 1000 years in the future/past#and in the dsmp#most of the fics are aus#in wof i loved the world#the characters are just devices to tell the story#very few of them have depth#and in dsmp its the opposite#i love the characters#the people#the world is just where they live#probably also has something to do with how the stories are told also#wof is just a childrens book series#in dsmp you could see real people#their emotions#it wasnt just the characters you could enjoy#it was the people playing them too#yk what i mean?

I've come to the conclusion that being assigned the fandom-mandated "sunshine character" is the worst possible fate a character could face
#maybe I'm just biased because the characters that this happens to tend to be some of my favorites but I think I'm onto something#these characters aren't allowed depth of emotion or complex inner worlds. once a character is fanonized as the 'ray of sunsine'#or the 'cinnamon roll' they cease to occupy any space outside of that role in fanon content. they're happy & silly & not much else#no matter how much depth they may actually have in canon.#popular fanon has a tendency to treat happiness & goodness like states without any emotional complexity.#emotional complexity is reserved for the anti-heroes & jerks-with-a-heart-of-gold you see.#atp 'X is a ray of sunshine' has begone to feel like code for 'I don't actually care about this character very much nor do I understand#their canon narrative so I'm just gonna ignore them 98% of the time. but hey they're really nice! that's something! anywaysâ'#this is about many characters but I particularly want to call out aang & nightcrawler / kurt wagner as two who get this the worst.#because christ the mischaracterization they get from people who never think about them outside of the 'uwu small bean' box is infuriating#also steven universe & miles morales. although it's not so bad for steven after suf#fandom bs#please pretend I typed 'begun' a few tags back

Toon Link is aiming through his skull.
I main as Young Link and Toon Link in ssbu and thought it might be fun to tweak their designs a bit based on the alt costumes I wear and how I play. Their names are Zip and Zop (interchangeably) with botw Link as Zap.
#ssbu#super smash bros ultimate#loz#the legend of zelda#loz fanart#zip zap zop#052823#012022#I have a handful of drawings of these guys to share so I'm going to be doing that over the next few days! (ideally)#insta's seen the last image years ago but it's a first for tumblr#this is not a links meet btw. there will be no longform comic or in-depth ssbu lore or gameplay analysis 'xD#buuut I do have a few short comic ideas for silly things I've encountered in game#I don't know if I'll get around to them because there are so many other things I want to draw! but they're fun to imagine 0v0#I'm not very good at ssbu BUT! I have fun running around as Link and bopping people!!! >:D#the lil guys!#almost won the marching band retreat ssbu game as toon link and then down-aired off the side of the stage đ

I actually really like Andyâs mentality with playing Shepherd, with the whole âbravery isnât the absence of fear, moreso what you do with itâ thing, as well as Shepherd being very out of his element here.
Like Andy asking if he could roll with disadvantage in Death House (I donât remember what for), even tho he didnât need to, as well as having Shepherd not take a long rest with everyone after saving the kids, therefore taking a point of exhaustion (as well as Andy roleplaying how exhausted Shepherd clearly is, but is insisting ânah, Iâm fine, donât worry about meâ). As well as Shepherdâs lack of self preservation in combat (or other general life or death situations) if he knows that others are also in danger (regardless if heâs in more danger than them)
I just. I really like his character. I like all of Andyâs characters for reasons like this. Itâs very easy to boil a character down to one or two character traits, and I wonât lie and say that the other members of the cast havenât done that (regardless of how much I enjoy their characters), or that Andy hasnât done that with Torbek to some extent (at least in the beginning, before he truly joined the Krew). But I like that all of his characters are multifaceted, and makes you really think about who they are and why theyâre doing this. Itâs just. Wonderful character design, and not an easy thing to do.
#again I adore all of the castâs characters and storytelling#itâs just that some of them donât have as much depth as others#almost all of them go deeper than skin#but very few go all the way down to the bone marrow ya know?#am i making sense#idk probably not#legends of avantris#curse of strahd#curse of strahdanya#silas shepherd morgan

How's the move going?
*shaky thumbs up*
#not residuum#i have already broken the sink and boxes are everywhere#half of our roomates stuff molded into unusablity durring storage#there is currently no wi-fi#and im about to pull 12 hour shifts three days in a row and then six days in a row total#but at least the house is so nice#and theres a tortoise that lives in the back yard#so overall we're pretty happy#stessed but y'know#moving#update wise i honestly don't think there will be an update until late june or early july#i've been sketching them out and have a few ready for inks#but i hate inking with the very depths of my soul and regret making them a standard every day lmao#so right now i only have the bandwidth for sketching#but until wifi... yea#đ

roadkill.
my art entry for @megaroniandcheez's dtiys. see tags for notes and explanations on the art. also tumblr may have absolutely nuked the quality so click the picture for a better look
#dream discusses bsd đď¸#dream doodles đď¸#cheez dtiys#this took between 6-8 hours. I don't know the exact time since I wasn't really keeping track#anyways this would've come out quicker if I hadn't put it off for a few days but I really needed to take a break since it got frustrating#the bg and skeleton were already done but I was really stuck on what to do with chuuya and I even scrapped the original pose I had for him#it was too difficult given my current skill set. but I can see how i've improved since my last major piece (aka my own dtiys)#but yeah. also disregard his gloves I literally forgot that and I didn't want to detail his actual hands so. gloves it was. yeah.#for my sake just pretend that he either forgot or just activated corruption suddenly so then he'll rip them off anyways#still drew his hat blowing away amidst the flurry of feathers though#oh also this is 16 chuuya. 22 chuuya's hair PAINS me to draw so I went the gay little ponytail route#design notes include making his coat have fur to reference how he was based off of a bearded vulture#also his wings were very fun to draw. I used an actual picture of a bearded vulture as reference too#I got a little lazy with the ram skeleton but the skull has the most amount of effort put into it#I considered adding remnants of flesh still sticking to the bones themselves but bearded vultures primarily eat bones/bone marrow anyways#also technically I used this dtiys as a way to test out my art program's filters with the blurring of said ram skeleton. really adds depth#CEO of nonsensical backgrounds. that's a forest I just also got lazy with it. not the main focus of the drawing#I do like the backlighting and the corruption marks though. very proud of how that turned out. this whole thing was experimental#not sure if i'll hate this piece eventually but I'm proud of it at the moment so reblogs are greatly appreciated#dtiys#dtiys entry#bsd#bungo stray dogs#bungou stray dogs#bsd chuuya#bsd fanart#bungou stray dogs fanart#bungou stray dogs chuuya#bungo stray dogs fanart#bungo stray dogs chuuya

Friendly reminder the Dragon Age Devs AMA is happening later today for all you Americans out there! Consider me very impressed that a majority of the questions with the greatest upvotes are quite critical of the game!
I linked it below!
#its happening at like 4 in the morning for me so i won't be able to join in the live trash fire I assume it will be#if anyone wants to ramble/send me their hot takes on what the devs say my inbox is open!#going to be all over it when I wake up!#a lot of questions about world states / lack of rp options / lack of depth to companions etc...#a lot of asks for patches to add more content like BG3 has done - like EA would allow that?! they'd charge $20 for shit they had them cut#questions about how lacking the lucanis romance is in terms of content too -> in general the romances are getting a lot of criticism#a really good question about retconning solas's motivations too#surprised i only saw one or two questions about the executors -> the one I saw was asking if it was in Gaider's plan for the series lmao#a few about production troubles and a few about misleading statements devs made#i am so very proud that no one is giving them wiggle room <3#especially about how they were misleading in their marketing of this game - that was outright scummy to consumers#EA is not entirely at fault for how misleading/vague they were in their marketing#Bioware doesn't have EA holding a gun to their head every minute of the day - they're multi-million dollar company#you don't need to defend them lmao#someone please ask them to release the Joplin Cut for me lmao#bioware critical#datv critical#edit - i 100% have a lot of sympathy for individual devs and the crappy work environment they're in#but when some of them are outright misleading customers about what is in the game its just shitty all round#i feel bad for the individuals and not so much the company and execs#veilguard critical

having big big thoughts about the slow horses books. putting my heart and soul into believing the show writers know what they're doing
#everything ive seen online about the books is so overwhelmingly positive#and don't get me wrong i do like them a lot#or at least i like the first four but london rules is grating on me A Lot so far#but the show is in totally a different league for me#it doesn't have the same depth of character and a few things feel a little shallower but I guess a degree of that is due to medium of story#but it does fix all of what i consider the big issues w the books (big one being a lack of character development )#while the characters have a lot of depth they're very static in the books#especially river#and the humour being uh. how shall i say. 'less politically correct' doesn't really bother me on principle bc thats kinda the point#however so far in london rules its stopped being funny and started being gratituious sexism just annoys me#like stfu man#sorry 2 be a silly little snowflake or whatever u cannot make five sexism jokes a page and expect me to laugh#i have far more to say than this but at that point i should just make a post#slow horses#r.txt

no major fic updates just yet guys TAKE MY WOY OC I MADE LIKE. April of last year IM PLUGGING SOME INFO ABOUT THIS GUY IN THE TAGS.
I may also redesign her soon or something. Make her more bug-like with some stuff. I can cook guys let me cook !!!
#THIS IS VAL !!!! dubbed her as a he/she er..#I have lore about this guy and his homeplanet Amore and the Lovebugs..#all thatâs really important to know is that ive based the worldbuilding for Amore around svtfoeâs mewni#design wise mostly. Iâll emphasize.#in terms of the societal parts of Amore the kingdom kinda flourishes in the arts of all sorts and trade within the kingdom it goes crazayâŚ#they were pretty closed off from the rest of the galaxy though. like their tech and stuff is pretty outdated compared to most of the other-#planets with atleast escape ships and all that fun stuff.#foreshadowing#ANYHOW lovebugs are silly guys I think of them as like weird hedonistic freaks of sorts#they have very big dionysus worshipping energy to them just to give a perspective#and of course they prioritized relationships and the different forms of love#romance actually wasnât even the big thing that built the kingdom#it was more like a love for community and friends#which is also kinda silly because of the monarchy aspect to Amore and all that#OH ALSO these guys go absolutely crazy with fashion and makeup. gender isnât a major thing in the kingdom in my eyes#you WILL serve cunt!! /silly#WORLDBUILDING ASIDEEE Val was the prince to the kingdom and was set to be the heir to the throne#the designs are like three different route ideas ive had for Val#the first is just a baseline design so like. pre amoreâs destruction from dominator#the second is like a good ending design of sorts to my ideal lineup for a season three for woy with val continuing to embrace the lovebugs-#history and culture even with Amore gone and a good portion of her people#and the third. is a bit hard to describe because itâs more of an au but itâs just a concept idea I had of Val teaming up with Dom#(it would be short lived like probably a few months max so dw)#and silly note i joked about the idea of val being an ex to peepers BUT I WANNA DEVELOP THAT MORE BEFORE I SHARE.#tap into that this may be cringe but i am free mindset or something slash silly TEEHEE#BUT YEAH Valâs just a silly gal in my heart and soul no matter what. ive missed her a lot i wanna work on fics with him and especially to-#develop more stuff for Amore and the Lovebugs before Dominatorâs destruction of the planet#BUT YEAH i wanna Val post more. go into depth for their dynamic with the other characters and all that#I may cook some more stuff with him once I get these stargazing fics all set and whatnot SO WEâLL SEE!#also /nf but if anyone would wanna ask questions about val/amore/lovebugs ask away Iâd love to answer any questions! đĽş

hey, y'all â so i know how random this is, but a while ago... i was thinking about how barton might react to dying because this man has been in a LOT more situations than the average person where he was near death. and the first thing that came to mind was that he would actually probably come to peace with it rather quickly â even though i know that'd likely be more a little unexpected coming from him. but IDK, i think i might've been onto something with it, though.
so UHHH like this post if you'd like for me to post an essay about why i think that / j (LMAO nooo, it wouldn't be a whole essay, but it would likely be a long meta... so like. if you do want more details and/or would be interested in seeing something like that, then i humbly invite y'all to like this post if you want to so that i know you are đđ though there's no pressure OFC)
#OF MONSTERS AND MEN: musings.#AHHH i'm not going to lie i'm unsure of what warnings i should use for this post so if you see this and would like something else tagged-#other than what i put here for the trigger warnings then please let me know! but for now i'm just going to use a few of them#tw: death#and yeah... i know that this is kind of coming out of nowhere BUT y'all know how it is when you get a thought in your head-#that you feel like you just HAVE to write down; your brain doesn't even think about how random it is i think haha buttt#i have been wanting to make more in-depth meta's about this chaos gremlin so why not make one about how he'd react to death am i right?#JSJSJ even though it's UHHH certainly not a very happy topic i feel like it could lead to some interesting insights about his character

i bring you: the venn diagram of characters who used to have crushes on iwasuga. put together with the help of my mutuals (thank you ash, paige, and sou)
these crushes range from "thought he seemed cute and likeable whenever they saw them" to "kind of intense crush that lasted months, at the very least"
feel free to add on in the tags or replies <3
iwaizumi:
kyoutani
atsumu
semi [during high school]
ushijima [after they meet in california]
every non-volleyball sports captain at seijoh (boys)
both:
yaku
daichi
kageyama
kogane
watari
suga:
moniwa
lev
akaashi
shibayama
every guy on karasuno [except narita]
#my headcanons#pov: you're one of the five in the middle and just found out iwasuga are dating#i would offer to maybe go in depth on the intensity of each one's crushes but a few of them are simply based off of vibes or#'thought it would be funny'#also the distinction for semi and ushijima is important. their crushes on iwaizumi were at very different moments in time.#im not tagging this with iwasuga bc i feel like this would be lame to see in the iwasuga tag when looking for content#i REALLY did think about putting oikawa on here but idk i like iwaoi's relationship always having been 100% platonic in most iwasuga#universes#if i was going to throw in an unrequited crush it would actually be on iwa's end

The idea of romantic chiluc is great honestly but qpr chiluc hits different. Having such a unique relationship dynamic only they understand,,,
They both learn to understand each other. Move past the titles and the names they've known each other as. It's no longer Tartaglia the tsaritsas vanguard but just Ajax. And it's no longer Diluc Ragnvindr of Mondstadt, just Diluc.
They don't have the same pressure when they're with each other because there's that understanding they have. They're both 'different' both been through a lot, but they care for each other.
Maybe the care looks different to everyone else, more romantic than intended but as long as they understand it doesn't matter. Because no one but then need to understand
#zara rambles#chiluc#qpr chiluc#i dont have much yo say about this post tbh sjdjd#ive just been thinking about them#ive been dying to write more but its the last few weeks of school meaning everything is due these next few weeks đ#if you're still reading next fanfic will probably be about how they meet. its hinted in the first fanfic but it goes more in depth#but it will probably come after fatui chiluc đ#i aim to get that one out yhis weekend if i can#also its midnight im very tired so idk if this actually makes sense

Every time I see bull red son an angel (me) loses it's wings (gets mildly annoyed)
#NOT TARGETED!!!!!#I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH#I HAVE NO ACTUALLY PROBLEM WITH IT!!!!!#okay now thats out of the way#i can ramble#it makes NO sense#his character in the book is one of the few who we get a in depth physical description of and there is ZERO mention of bull features#he looks incredibly human#which we can also use as a reference for what iron fan looks like but thats not relevant here#but lmk realistically takes very little from the actual book#so that doesn't really matter here#what DOES matter is the fact that IF red son had bull features hed never shut up about them#he idolises his father and for demon males less human traits are probably the beauty standard#the more i type the more i think that my train of thought is completely personalised#guys help i think about demon genetics to much i need to reconnect with life#does anyone want me to make a full demon genetis chart that pretty much entirely hinges on iron fan#OH YEAH IRON FAN#SHE WAS A CELESTIAL AND IN THE BOOK RED BOY LOOKS JUST LIKE HER YOU THINK THERE'S ANY ROOM GOR DBKS GENETICS#sighh this is all rakshasi PIF and rakshasa Red Son propergana at the end of the day#or rakshasi Red Son maybe but that would have to be explained in the genetics post#is there a tag limit#anyway tldr the removal of the samadhi fire probably took all the necessary hormones to get bull features#and PIF in the book (and as we can assume in the show) has genetics to strong to let bull features show otherwise#yeah that sums it up#lmk red son#lmk princess iron fan#lmk demon bull king#lmk demon bull family#sorry if literally any of this sounds passive aggressive ik its all in good fun im just a fan of the book

#s.txt#every day i see another dozen posts that make me want to cry and further avoid social media#like. i'm sorry i need white gentiles to realize that part of their job here is working to make the diaspora safe for jews!!!#do you know how much harder it is to convince my family that israel isn't the solution when houses in my neighbourhood are getting shot at#and vandalized for having mezuzahs??? which we also had up until they were ripped off by someone a few years back???#and like those are very necessary convos to have and i'm gonna keep having them and doing what i can and everything#but then i come on here and see shit like all zionists deserve to die no matter and it's just like. yall just want to see jews dead actuall#a free palestine is imperative i believe this to the depths of my soul#and things are also very scary right now!!! these are two things that can and are coexisting rn!!#sorry for the essay lmao#and yeah i'm not really on here besides my queue atm bc most of my energy rn is going towards irl convos+stuff and that's good frankly#sorry coming back bc i remembered the thread i saw from a white gentile leftist last week#that referred to israelis as pests that need to be eradicated#in those exact words and like sorry that's just straight up antisemitic rhetoric in so many ways like pls listen to yourself

the worst thing about that giovannis room quote is the place in the book where it comes like. its all over by then. i mean yes its over before its even begun because of david as a person but. like it doesnt even come at the start when david is lying to himself and pretending to ignore the clock ticking on their situation and eating cherries. by the time and will you bring me home again / yes i'll bring you home again comes about its as good as done and so giovanni is as good as done his fate is sealed and david is halfway out the door promising to bring him home like. pages b4 that when giovanni loses his job he goes if you were not here this would be the end of giovanni. and LINES before he says it he's going i do not know what i would do if you left me. i do not think i would be able to live if i had to be alone again. and david knows he's gone! he's already in the process of leaving giovanni to be alone again! they're not even at the beginning of the end theyre practically in the middle of it! the end of them and the end of giovanni because they're one and the same! giovanni tells him that when david leaves he will not be able to live. and then he asks him if he will bring him home again to this room that david knows that he is going to leave (<- and in doing so he is going to bring about the end of giovanni. and the end of himself). girls giovanni is practically dead already. and knowing what he is going 2 do to him david goes. yes. ill bring you home again.
#rest assured im saying nothing thoughtprovoking nor of depth or value here sorry im just losing my mind every time i see that#line on the dash i get a giovannis room induced stomach ache. that fucking book. that fucking book has ruined me for all other#books..........and there are like. 4 or 5 lines in there that take years off my life every time i read them and. this one is at the very#top sorry and will you bring me home again / yes. ill bring you home again is the worst thing ive ever read in my life it makes#me dry heave. sorry please no one read this this whole post is just me repeating an obvious statement over and over again it is 11pm#i just. have to make a post like this every few months for my own wellbeing or the doctors say my ribs will burst out of my chest....#giovanni's room

#vent incoming#id really appreciate it if my ex uhhh respected my boundaries#like its nothing groundbreaking#but she likes to go out with people drinking and whenever she does shes very unfocused when responding to my messages#(we have lengthy conversations about stuff and she keeps them going despite hanging out with people which no comment there)#and I always get overwhelmed and anxious when it goes on for a long while because I cant make sense of the conversation n stuff#so i tried to push the conversations into a lull whenever she was out#and last weekend i kinda lost my patience with it and told her directly that i dont fuck with this anymore and i refuse to do this#we can have a few 'hi how are you where you at how you doing whats up' kinda stuff going but never the in depth stuff we talk about#she was whiny but eventually just let me have my way because i wouldnt entertain the rest#and today she was responding kinda funny and i wondered if its just me being bad at talking again or if shes busy with stuff#no :) she went out and didnt tell me :) and she just slipped up because she was frustrated about her friend getting drunk :)#i shouldnt even be posting this but ugh I am just. so tired#i get it she missed me cause i was away for most of the day and wouldnt even respond cause i dont use data when im out#but pulling this is just not it
