Writers and world building vs. Writing the story in the world
#yes I'm calling myself out#i've been world building the same story for more than half of my life#but the last couple years has been adding people#where before it was places#before then it was landmasses and biomes and weather and the major route of travel#before that it was Pre History and Assumptions that Survived vs The Truth That Was Obscured And Lost#before that was the dieties and how the Creation Story goes#and each layer built upon the last#and I wanted all of them while building over arcing cultural things like language and writing and organized religion and governance#because the story is about traveling across an entire landmass held by an Empire#Empires have components with their own identity#that comes from The Before Times and how They Changed between then and now#what was embraced and what was resisted#what caused conflict#what resolved it#and I Have Been Thinking About It for 20 years lol

Was pondering how Mark’s rigid ass mask/lens is prob a Budget Thing (since squishy, bendy lens are pretty much a mandate for all hero animated series, like JL, BTAS, TNBA, Spider-Man, etc), and then I was slapped with a vision of Mark in a more JL/BTAS-ish style and I had to see it through. I am a genius btw.
#i had MANY thoughts while drawing my brain melted while posting so if ya have questions send 'em / ask 'em#but rapid fire: leans more into nightwing's look b/c bro's name is legit grayson + moves away from his father's sidekick/protege +#and legit has a blue and black outfit. that is soooo winking at robin (dick grayson specifically)#mark has a more casual / athletic fit and tried to keep his usual kicked puppy expression / mood#which then contrasts his more emotional (hero) side he acts upon when he's suited up as ANOTHER wink to the whole dual persona#mark does it unintentionally as he's eager to prove himself as invincible and thus more emotional/confidential/eager + feels lackluster#as just mark grayson.#but it's such a comic book trope it's interesting el show ignores the potential stakes for that + prob cause they dont focus on#villains#mark has debbie's cheek bones + pearls both so he skip the whole copy paste design tactic cartoons annoyingly use + wink at batman w/ pearl#nolan wears pink and debbie wears green b/c they have conflicting views on raising Mark but (used to?) stand on a somewhat#united front by having same collared shirt. but mark leans more on debbie's stuff visually w/ cooler colors + white shirt underneath#mark keeps his cape as another wink/nod at robins (tim drake TNBS specifically) which mimics his Dad + kid-like eagerness for hero stuff#which he gets rid off when he goes blue/black suit arc (cough cough nightwing looking ass) so just leaned MORE into it#mark has a heart on his chest because he's TRYING to do what he think he's best + emotional asf#lens/goggles are diff to keep the audiences' eye back at HIS eyes + look more ominous and predatory which the black/blue combo#already COULD do in canon but in show its just pallete swapped which ruins the more ominious look it probably intended#and doesnt really scream “OH NO! THERE'S NO GOLD! WHICH could be a marker of mark's joy vanishing!!!”#but i hope it does now but ALSO having design changes#the brainrotsreal's art tag ✧˖°:*♡#invincible rotating in my mind#mark grayson#invincible fanart#invincible#fanart#digital art#procreate art#i wish the style leaned more this way since it is messing with or TRYING to mess with some superhero tropes before it does its own thing#just straight up use nostalgia bait while it has his JL knock off#artists on tumblr

Be honest, what are your thoughts on appledash? Do you hate it or its more of not a big deal
Not a big deal to me. I like it, I see all the appeals, I just personally like Rarijack more.
#ask me#anon#if you wanna know why i like rarijack more i just think they're a healthier depiction of a domestic and longterm relationship#appledash gives me the vibes of gfs that'll eventually break up#because from s1 to s8 their relationship and communication with each other on serious things never really matures or grows#they were competitive and petty in s1 and they were competitive and petty in s8#arguably worse cuz in that s8 episode their dynamic becomes so toxic they almost cause a student under their care to drown#both of them have a superiority complex that's constantly conflicting with each other and it never really gets resolved#but with rarijack there's a very clear arc of development you can follow in their character#and multiple episodes show how they'll argue and eventually come back together and apologize and communicate and work to better things#you can watch them grow to like and understand each other. in s1 aj scoffs and makes fun of rarity's work in fashion#but in a later season (after some conflict) aj says that she doesn't understand fashion but she knows it means a lot to rarity so it means#a lot to her too. and that's what love is to me. “it didn't mean anything to me until it meant something to you”#it's genuinely really sweet and i'd argue rarijack /feels/ the most romantic out of all the main 6 ships. through arguing they grow closer#which is how it's supposed to be in relationships that last! you argue to work out your interpersonal problems and understand each other#(which is why it's genuinely kinda baffling to me that appledash ended up being canonically married because they never gave me those vibes)#but it really doesn't matter. they're cartoon horses! have fun with them

There really is something about how Blue Faction was formed to be the option for people who didn't want to be involved in Bad and Foolish's insanity and now they're being dragged in by force. Bad and Foolish are like an inescapable black hole that pulls everything around them into their gravity and destroys it. You are never truly safe from their conflict
#the server is right they ARE the final boss of yaoi on the realm because what is this#they are the cause of all conflict on the server just by being themselves#the realm smp#badboyhalo#foolish gamers#coyote howls

it's kind of funny that we're back at the start, as it was known from the very beginning, as the story always was, the old lore: "the Divine Gate was built in response to the destruction and suffering of the Calamity as the Prime Deities realized was far too much and, as such, they needed to also remove themselves from Exandria to protect it from the ruin that the gods dwelling here brings"
#I'm almost shocked the Divine Gate lore is like Exactly As Billed like oh so it was precisely what was said this whole time??#for all the hype about like changing perspective and Discovery it almost surprisingly like... non-conflicting with the history we DO know#like this coheres precisely with my understanding of this as a tragedy and why it happened and the realizations that it resulted in#there's always a lot of “this campaign is Everything You Knew Was Wrong” but I keep being “wait we did or kinda knew this for ages tho”#and in the end this decision about “our presence here and our fights do cause mass destruction and suffering and we must leave” is like#well yeah we knew that was how and why the Divine Gate happened? legit almost surprised it's exactly as we've been told from the start#Critical Role things#CR spoilers

Changing channels 2.0 but Gabriel makes Cas the Bachelor and Dean is the P.A. having an excruciating awakening of homosexual lust
#destiel#deancas#spn#Supernatural#fic ideas#<- *chanting low under my breath* I WILL write a comedy that does not evolve into an emotional epic#I WILL write a comedy that does not evolve into an emotional epic#started a Too Hot Too Handle wip last year but Taylor Supernatural hates AUs so......... cannon-complient dating show destiel?#<- Taylor did not make me stop the wip#i stopped it on my own for reasons of adhd as god intended#ANYWAYS cannon-complient dating show destiel!!!#the conflict can be like. Gabriel is low-key torturing Cas (who knows it's all a hallucination or w/e)#and idk Dean is unofficially assigned as Cas' handler to prove that he's ready to be promoted to producer or something#and that causes a ~conflict of interest~#I have no idea what greater spn plot point this sould service#dean has to divert from his destiny in order to follow his heart?#i.e. Dean has to turn away from the allure of producing to fuck Cas in the bathroom of his show trailer or something? I'm working on it.....

i want to make a ppg sequel that looks like the concept art for that cancelled batman beyond movie & other cool stuff so bad, they should’ve put me in charge of that cw reboot, i would’ve made it cool and funny and heartwarming and devastating and animated idc if i was literally 13
(context he has 2 dads lmao) (also her dialogue is a reference to their pilot name, the Whoop-Ass Girls!)
#artists on tumblr#ppg#ppg fanart#powerpuff girls#buttercup#buttercup ppg#butch ppg#ik she’s had crushes on guys#here she’s upset cause she has one on a girl i guess#idk who tho#also#i think her conflict could also take inspiration from tmnt projects & have her think stuff like#im a mutant bug-eyed superpowered goku girl can i even have a partner?#also cause chat i have a confession i’m so sorry i don’t know how to write straight people idk what they think i can’t get in their heads

Meljayvik discourse reminds me a lot of those barely baked Challengers takes that said "Patrick loved Art, Art loved Tashi and Tashi loved tennis" in the sense that people love making these smart sounding little quips to surmise very complex relationships and they never land (and also tend to be very reductive especially about the female character in the dynamic).
#mel medarda#“oh Jayce liked Mel Loved Viktor and Mel doesn't love anyone” WRONG NEVER SPEAK AGAIN#“Jayce never liked Mel he was projecting his feelings for Viktor on to her cause they're so alike” WTF R U TALKING ABOUT#quantifying love I'm personally not about it#I don't know what puritanical normative itch y'all got where you desperately need one love to trump the other or even conflict#but you gotta not do that or be quiet that would be nice#arcane#jayce talis#viktor arcane#viktor#arcane medarda#meljayvik

Jondami soulmate au where Jon’s soul mark is all encompassing branches on his body and when he falls in love they bloom and grow. No idea what Damian’s would be though
#jondami#damian wayne#jonathan kent#dc#the idea is soul marks only appear if your in love#I have a wip of this and in it Damian has no soul mark so Jon can never really know and that’s the cause of conflict#but I do wish I had an idea of what Damian’s soul mark could look like

reminder that the malec age gap does excist and does HEAVILY impact their relationship
#i think yall are scared to touch the age gap think cause your worried about what it implies about their relationship ESPECIALLY abt magnus#but it is sooo important to their story!! ITS WHY THEY BROKE UP#alec’s age and the fact that he ages at all is most of the conflict#you cannot be talking shit abt how awful alec was in the early books unless you’re willing to acknolwdge why he’s like that#i love malec i really do and i adore magnus! this doesnt make them toxic or anything! but it is important#especially when we’re talking about the breakup#magnus giving alec that book abt his life is him putting them at equal footing#because there was an imbalance and it did cause conflict between them. but they grew past that! they work together now!! no more secrets!!!#tmi#tsc#the mortal instruments#the shadowhunter chronicles#hmmm so many thoughts#cassandra clare#malec#alec lightwood#magnus bane
