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

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

I beg…..more rk1k content from you 🤲🤲🤲
love is in the air!
#what’s more romantic than maiming and killing eachother due to conflicting ideals then mourning what could have never been after the fact#because despite the differences—the person that stood in the way of your cause was the only person to ever exhibit the same ambition you had#detroit become human#dbh connor#dbh markus#rk1k#cw gore#cw blood#connor rk800#markus rk200#dbh

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.....

Solas addressing current day Thedas about his plans to bring down the Veil:
#the egg was going to save the elves and lead a rebellion and instead you made it all about mythal and only mythal#by all means have mythal and solas's relationship be fucked#but why minimize Solas's entire past as a freedom fighter for this?? his motivations were lessened so much from what trespasser set up#the game made him so unlikable to me#joplin cut save me </3#that version actually had him helping the elves like he said he was going to do in trespasser -> instead he started two world wars in datv#he absolutely only made life worse for the elves and everyone else on thedas since the moment he woke from his beauty sleep & that's fucked#led to thousands and thousands more dying and the entire south being blighted to hell#make the man whose flaw is that he cares too much cause the most harm to everyone on thedas in its TOTALITY from the titans to this point#they did you dirty solas >:(#people won't remember him in thedas as a freedom fighter post datv -> there will be no songs or legends about the true fen'harel#remembered as he should be as the man who stood up to gods for the slaves -> who risked all he had in the name of freedom against tyrants#instead he set in motion the greatest conflict of the age as well as corypheous -> people will curse his name just like the dalish once did#they will look around at the blighted remains of their lands and the bodies of those they loved and they will blame him and be 100% correct#god it just makes me feel depressed what they did to him#the elves would absolutely be fucked all over again because of this - their gods returning and blighting the world#while another was responsible for it happening in the first place????#then to hint that the forbidden/forgotten ones are still out there as an antagonist too?! stoppppp#datv critical#datv spoilers#bioware critical#dragon age the veilguard

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

Alright, so. According to some people. Millie can't be upset about a baby because she doesn't want one, nooo she has to be a cheater!
That's fucking ridiculous.
Theres so many reasons for her not to want one. her job for one, the risks of pregnancy, the lack of medical care in hell, her and moxxie not talking about, Her and moxxie not planning for or on it, Money issues which have been mentioned MULTIPLE times btw, blitz spends all the company money on stupid stuff hes NOT a very good boss, Anxiety over raising a kid, fea rof the pain youd experience during birth, not feeling ready for one, maybe she'd rather have one in the future. the women is only 26.
or maybe she doesnt want one at all!! women can just not want to have a kid i mean it is NOT that hard to understand
#helluva boss critical#who wants to call misogyny on the bingo card? cause i will. we all know thats what it is plain and simple.#shes not overjoyed but moxxie would be so ofc she must be doing soemthing wrong because her feelings dont allign with moxxies#also we all know how this is gonne end. minor conflict then millie accepting it and probably becoming a housewife.#all while the episode/plot revolve around moxxies feelings instead of millies#millie and octavia are like. the only good characters in the show and everybody hates them for it which is bullshit.

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

Oh to be able to make the complex lore comic that lives in my head about the concept of fairies, anti-fairies, and pixies once being a civilization of one single species of fae that splintered both metaphorically and literally due to internal conflict
#Basic concept: one fae has their good and bad sides split into the fairy and anti fairy#While what remains (ie their more 'grey' traits) are left behind as a third being that's more of a Husk than anything#Pixies are kind of like the Kingdom Hearts nobodies in my head#None of them are directly associated or bonded to any single fairy the way anti-fairies are#They're just sort of a mixed bag of leftovers#Different from Nobodies in that aspect#The conflict that caused the initial split was the decision to stop doing harm to the humans through the planting of changelings#Which eventually evolved into a debate over how they treated humans in general#All desires to help and care for the human race was separated into fairies#While all desires to do harm was divided into antifairies#And then the left over unrelated stuff (like not caring about the humans either way and only being self interested instead) became the pixie#Unfortunately for everyone involved the split caused a severe decrease in magical abilities for all sides#Since it was really just one magic that was split into thirds#Having children was also banned at this point because there was no way of knowing if the children would be of one side#Or if they would be the original unsplit species#And there was concern this would cause conflict#I also like to think the heads of each faction erased the populations memories of their origins eventually#If only to make it easier to dehumanize the other factions and elevate themselves by erasing any associations with them#There are still some fae who exist who either were part of the split but escaped before they had their memories wiped#Or were never affected by the split and therefore still exist as the original form of fae#With all three 'types' of magic under their control#ANYWAY#fop a new wish#Fop#fopanw#fairly oddparents#fairly oddparents a new wish#A new wish

who's this asshole?
part one - (link)
#rainworld#rainworld liveblog#met the poor little meow meow today. all i know is that you people argue about him.#im sure my comparing him to dirk strider will cause no further conflict nor cause anyone to track me down and kill me#rain world#slugcat#five pebbles#rw five pebbles#rw slugcat#rw survivor#doodlebyte#anyway im not surprised he's pissy i kept throwing shit at his insides. hes within his rights to smack me on the nose with a newspaper#for those curious about my path: i scurried back on myself and ended up basically doing both since i kept choking at#what i would learn to be very near the end of the Unfortunate Development path or whatever it was called#bug zapper zone was much more fun

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
