At this point you can't actively support taylor and nick because they are antithetical of each other. They objectively represent two different and opposing characteristics of Hollywood.

This kinda fits Desmonds mom in some way. Thoughts?
Hereā€™s the embed video version for those who donā€™t wanna copy and paste the link:
youtube
Iā€™m just imagining her hearing for the first time that her son, the son she hadnā€™t seen for nine years, could not even seen or talk to for one last time for the sake of both of their safety, was now dead.
Sacrificing his life to save the world.
Savior?
Messiah?
What used were those moniker to her dead son.
She wouldnā€™t be able to see him ever again.
She wouldnā€™t be able to touch his cheeks and take a good look of the man he had become in person.
She wouldnā€™t be able to smile and say ā€œYouā€™ve grown so much.ā€
She wouldnā€™t be able to askā€¦
ā€œWere you happy these past years?ā€
ā€œWas letting you go to be free worth the pain of not being by your side for nine long years?ā€
ā€œIt should have been you.ā€
She felt him freeze, the hands on her shoulders trembling ever so slightly.
ā€œYou should have died instead of our son!ā€ She screamed as tears fell from her eyes.
He opened his mouth, most likely to call her name but stopped, letting out a gasp as her hands curled around his throat, squeezing him with the strength of an Assassin that have been in the field since she had been a teenager.
ā€œYou share the same blood as him! Youā€™re a descendant of that cursed Auditore-Kenway line these beings haunt!ā€ She shouted.
She could break his neck.
Snap it.
Sheā€™d done it before.
Sheā€™d kill so many people in the name of the Brotherhood before.
She was raised to be an Assassin.
She could just as easily-
She let out a frustrated scream as she threw him away, covering her eyes as bitter tears fell from her eyes.
He called out her name, his voice hoarse.
Was he grieving as well?
Did he loved their child as much as she did?
Who knows?
Who cares.
ā€œGet out.ā€ She lowered her hands as she ordered, the decades of forcing her emotions to shut down coming to the forefront, ā€œDonā€™t ever show your face to me again, William Miles.ā€
Her expression turned to one of frigid nothingness.
It reminded William Miles of a recording of a memory of AltaĆÆr Ibn-La'Ahad.
The face the legendary mentor had made when his desire to kill the man who killed his youngest son triumphed over his desire for peace and truth.
ā€œThe next time I see you, I will claw open your chest and rip your heart out.ā€ She promised in an emotionless tone.
She watched him leave.
The man she loved and loathed in equal measure.
It should have been him.
No.
It should have been them.
They should have been the one to die in their sonā€™s place.
They both failed him as parents.
And nowā€¦
All she had left was a Brotherhood barely afloat and the useless legacy of her blood.
After allā€¦
Those who have the blood of the Ibn-La'Ahad were meant to lose their beloved child.

yello! I just wanted to ask if your ocs have set ethnicities? For quite a while now I've had this sneaking suspicion that Sun and Dice are greek since their last names are greek in origin and you also mentioned that Sun would make Dice and himself avgolemono soup (which is a greek dish) when they were kids. So since I don't think you've clearly stated any ethnicities (atleast not that I remember?) I just wanted to confirm my suspicions and ask if any other ocs have set ethnicities?
Okay bye bye I will pass out now snorkmimimimišŸ›Œ
-šŸ¦¢
hope you had a good rest swan nonniešŸ„ŗšŸ©· you are right in that sun and dice are greek, and i'm glad that it was deducable enough through the stuff i have up for them!! i've yet to make a post abt it so ig this will be the onešŸ¤§ the intention is to explore their backgrounds more in their stories but,, i think it's obvious that will be a long time coming at the rate i write ahahahašŸ˜”šŸ’”
not all of them are decided yet but of the ones i can confirm:
sun, dice: greek
vio, bear, bea: romanian
laurent: french + hispanic
clover: korean
shura: russian
i probably won't set an ethnicity for ophelia or dia since they're technically dolphins (can dolphins have ethnicity??) you can hc them as you'd likešŸ˜­ when i figure out the rest of them i will update this

hi! do you have any tips for making good quality screenshots in ts4?
Hi! Let's see what I can come up with..
LIGHTING/GRAPHICS MODS Easy to use/install, lighting mods can change the look of your game drastically with little effort! I use a few:
no-glo
no-blu
graphicsrules override
I use this camera mod too, much less drifty...
Softerhaze makes some bomb ass lighting mods too.. I just switched from twinkle toes to sunblind and I am in LOVE - gamechanger lemme tell you.. so pretty! LOOKIT!!
Tumblr media
RESHADE I'm still using g-shade at the moment but after recent events, I'll probably end up switching back again when I can be arsed. The effects you can achieve with reshade presets are amazing tbh.. and it's real fun to mess around with and create your own! Tho lots of people have made awesome ones if that's a bit much for you. If your PC can't handle it all too well you can always just switch it off until it's time to take screenies as well.
COMPOSITION Kinda hard to explain but basically, composition is what's in your frame and how you line it all up. I'd recommend reading some photography guides to get the gist of the concept.. but honestly, the more you mess around the more you'll get the hang of it. I've always loved photography and sims screenies really aren't so different. If you use reshade there's even some templates for thirds/the golden ratio etc you can slap on top for practice. Personally I don't use 'em cos I prefer my own judgement (that sounds rlly obnoxious but we're rolling with it). I found a template to show you what I mean! (ngl I was stoked that the first screenie I thought of for being a good eg. almost perfectly fit into this golden ratio shit LOL) but let's keep in mind how long I scooted around to get a good shot of this.. pretty sure I deleted about 10 other failed shots of this but shhhh, it's trial and error!
Tumblr media
ANGLES/FOCUS The way you take a shot and how you angle it can change the whole feel of the image. For example.. in this image I tilted down and bit and filled over two thirds of the shot with the man, he's a big character and quite an intimidating guy so I think it helps get the idea across without pointing it out (at least I think so but idk I could also be talking outta my ass)
Tumblr media
Similarly in these two shots below.. the first with the guy on the left gives the feel that he's in control here. The "camera" is tilted above him slightly and he's all up in your face, making the woman look much smaller in comparison. BUT! If you flip around to the second image, tilt down a bit and switch the focus to her, it makes him look more insignificant and less in control. I hope this makes sense??
Tumblr media Tumblr media
EDITING/PHOTOSHOP ACTIONS ETC Personally I don't use photoshop actions but there's plenty out there to do the work for you! I think Intramoon? maybe.. has made a few but idk, you guys feel free to jump in with any suggestions! You can also smooth, fix stuff, change the mood/lighting, all sorts.. my advice on this is patchy at best tbh cos I just faff around until I see what I like lmao.. which leads me on tooooooo...
FUCK AROUND AND FIND OUT Lol.. but seriously! I don't know what I'm doing. I've never taken any classes or read up on much, I always just jump in and see what happens. Fuck around with reshade, fuck around with camera mods, fuck around with composition/focus, fuck around with photoshop or gimp or w/e.. just mess about for a while and have fun! I promise you'll get better.

atsumu is definitely a greedy man.
it's how he pushed himself into the professional athlete he is, always demanding more of not only himself but from those around him. the difference with him though, is that his greed is a greed that stems from love.
after all, that's what atsumu embodies: love in its purest form. it's his justification for why he's so drawn to you, why everything you do to him has him acting this irrationally, just for you to glance in his direction. some might call him pathetic, but he likes to think of it as an unwavering devotion. and he's sure you'd agree too.
the glittery gold and black jersey only cements his certainty. he could spend a lifetime blowing his load to the image of you bent over all pretty for him, your pussy sucking his thick cock in like your life depends on it, the last name "miya" placed squarely on your back. there's something about seeing the fabric bounce with each one of his thrusts that makes him want to carve a deeper place into your heart, like his jersey on you is proof that you're his.
"fuck, you're so tight, babe. you're gonna make me cum if you keep tightening up around me like that... fuck, d'you like that? like it when i hit it from behind?" he slurs, his vision already hazy with pleasure. he doesn't want to waste even a second looking away from you. his hands push up against the hem of the big jersey, but he makes sure not to crumple up his name as his big palms play with tits, gripping at your body and trying to press up as much of himself as he can against you.
god, you feel so small against him. it's like his jersey's threatening to eat your body up whole, and it makes his cock twitch dangerously inside of you. you're so good to him, too good to him, and instead of satiating him, it only fuels him more. he wants every part of you, the good and the ugly, the moral and the immoral, the presentable and the hideous. the jersey sporting his name clinging to your skin is just a physical marking of that.
atsumu is definitely a greedy man.

Why do you get so mad when people don't like something about the show? I really don't get why we have to always "just enjoy it". If you don't want any criticism/negative thoughts about the show on your blog that's fine, but you should probably mention that, cause I was under the impression you were open for discussion in general, and that's often gonna include some "negativity", in the sense that everyone is gonna enjoy every single thing they do. And I don't mean the Lesmand thing specifically.
It's my blog and I can get mad if I want to.

hi !! so sorry to bother you but i just wanted to ask how did you start your own selfship thing? i reeeaally wanna do it but i dont know where to begin with and im kinda scared tbh cause people might find it cringe :///
GM NONNIE !! HUGS YOU šŸ«‚ okay i just woke up so excuse sleepy language but lemme say this . . .
first, if u wanna do it then 100% do it! u can do as u wish on ur own blog. from my own experience, the selfship community here is so sweet. iā€™ve had such a good experience here and i was also a little scared at first too !! i was very quiet about my selfship on my old blog, so itā€™s my 1st time posting lore n all that too. absolutely nothing to worry about. & iā€™m also here !! i would love to snoop on your selfship and send u questions > <
second !! i donā€™t think thereā€™s a certain set of steps you need to followā€” itā€™s super duper personalized!! you can just do whatever looks most fun to you yk ?? but for me .. i think the first thing i did was get selfship art. the joy i get from that is insaneā€” so insane, and i love talking to people MSMSMS oh god i love artists so much. i think second ? came the lore ?? i was listening to a song and thought about it!! it didnā€™t come all at once though. i just wanted to have something in my ā€˜about meā€™ that showed my selfship (i listed dates we go on first, then came up with the 1st meeting, etc). right now im searching for an artist who takes comms for like .. a manga panel ?? if that makes sense. iā€™d really want that next !!
so you really donā€™t need to worry about steps!! thereā€™s a lot you can do with a selfship. you can write lore, get art comms, or maybe music? what music suits u two? AUs ?? you can make a playlist, you can host ask games where people ask about u two, you can write selfship drabbles, you can make moodboards, etc !! there is so much you can do. itā€™s so fun !! you can also make a selfship tag and link it somewhere on your blog so you can go through your own ship whenever you want a lil boost of happiness > < LOVE THAT. DONT BE SHY!!!

Joly + 18, 22, & 12 for the ask game!
Nonny that was so fast omg
12. What's a headcanon you have for this character? All of the Amis keep some secrets from their parents but Joly just. Lies constantly. So So So Much Lying. He's honest about his illnesses and his problems with studies but everything else is just shameless prevarication all the way down. it's not that he thinks his folks would be mad about anything , although something ah hahaha yyyyeah they would , but mostly he just know they'd fuss. They'd Worry. They'd have So Much Advice. It's just so much easier to lie! He is not a writer but he's made up more stories than Prouvaire and with a more complex interconnected backstory. At this point his friends also enjoy hearing about what Hypothetical Joly is getting up to.
18. How about a relationship they have in canon with another character that you admire? I like most of the people he actually has a relationship with in canon so let's go with Mother Hucheloup: I think he's her favorite of the group, because he's mostly well behaved--for a Parisian college student-- and he Actually Pays For Things,but more than that he's just kind her favorite--not like a kid she might have had but like a favorite nephew, maybe, not that she's had a nephew, but she can guess. And his jokes make sense, not like those two friends of his. Hmph.
22. If you're a fic reader, what's something you like in fics when it comes to this character? Something you don't like? I like it when people make him cheerfully Very Weird :D He's Eccentric! quite a loaded term for his era! Nearly any Harmless Weirdness works for me with his character, especially if can be health focused-- syncing sleep to moon phases? Environmental Sound Sculpting? Dying his hair for Color Therapy? Sure! Anything! Although there's a special place in my heart for Joly looking utterly normal/bourgie and only upon entering conversation revealing that he's a complete freak (extremely affectionate <3)

If Buck and Tommy don't break up. Will you do positive colour theory on them?
Hey Nonnie
I wasnā€™t aware I wasnā€™t doing positive colour theory on them already!!!!
Iā€™ve spoken at length about the colours buck is wearing are positive for him - from the use of the light blue and itā€™s relation to his search for happiness, to the use of a shirt similar to the one from the start of season 6 - when he chose to be happy with himself before jumping into a new relationship again.
As for Tommy - weā€™ve had like 3 costumes this far and theyā€™re all versions of Eddieā€™s costumes - and playing into the fact that he is visually being shown to be similar to Eddie - in the same vein as the script is doing verbally!
Not sure how thatā€™s me being negative towards them from a colour theory or costume perspective!
I can only talk about what the costume department choose to put them in - and if Tommy sticks around then I will keep talking about his costumes and the colours and how that related to the scenes they are worn in - good and bad - as I do for all the characters.
Itā€™s my blog and my meta posts so itā€™s mine to do with as I please - I give you my opinions on the costumes and colour theory - Iā€™ve never claimed them to be the definitive ones or even the correct ones - they are MY interpretation based on what Iā€™m seeing - many of my opinions have been proven to be correct. But I am also wrong from time to time - Iā€™m not perfect and Iā€™m not working on the show. Other people may see something different and that is their prerogative - and they can talk about it on their own blogs as is their right. And you have the power to chose not to read what I wrote if you donā€™t like it - I do it for me not for others - if people enjoy it then thatā€™s wonderful, but Iā€™m fed up of people thinking they can demand something from me or that I will pander to their wants and needs - Iā€™m not going to on my own blog because it is mine - donā€™t like something - block and move on - it really is freeing I can assure you!!

Sorry if this is a bit out of left field since weā€™re moved on to the deciding the pattern part of the birthday quest, but I was curious if you had any patterns in mind for a messenger bag in the event that it won? Iā€™ve always wanted a nice one, but I never thought of making one myself until I saw it in your poll
Hey! It's not out of left field at all, I love talking about patterns! I don't have a pattern for one yet, but I will be either sharing a link to one or just drafting one myself in the short-to-medium term, because I want to make my nieces some messenger bags for rock collecting. It'll depend on if I find a pattern I like or if I find my old denim messenger bag I drew all over that I think is still in my closet somewhere? I loved that thing, it's my personal default of what I think a messenger bag looks like

Arrax here: (hazbin/Hannibal crossover
Val gets Vox unbelievably high during a talkshow broadcast and Velvette brings up her death....which gets Vox to absolutely RAGE.
(The Hazbin cast are watching, and Alastor of course is watching (especially after the INCIDENT with Lucifer and his Muse, and how dare--but, it's fine, it's fine. Vox will soon be back with him and he can have Vox break off their friendship.))
So Vox is raging and snarling and Val and Vel are all, Vox...calm down your death can't have been that bad.
And he fucking *spills*
"THAT FUCKING STUPID FBI TEAM, AND THEN THAT MOTHERFUCKER DIDN'T EVEN EAT ME! ALSO, FUCKING HANNIBAL THE CANNIBAL?!? CAN IT BE ANYMORE OBVIOUS?!? HE EVEN STARTED KILLING HIS GAY PANIC/MUSE'S MAYBE LOVE INTERESTS! AND THE MOTHERFUCKER DIDN'T EVEN EAT ME! ME! I WAS FUCKING BEAUTIFUL AND HEALTHY! I NEVER DRANK OR TOUCHED DRUGS UNTIL I FELL INTO HELL! I'D HAVE BEEN FUCKING DELIGHTFUL TO EAT--AND IT'S FUCKING STUPID TO WORK FOR THE FUCKING FBI IF YOU'RE A SERIAL KILLING CANNIBAL NAMED HANNIBAL WHILE HAVING GAY PANIC OVER A CO-WORKER! SERIOUSLY!"
He roars, lights flashing as Val and Vel stare, before Val pats Vox on the back comfortingly.
"I'm sure the radio demo--
"I didn't even know he was a Cannibal until 9 months after we became friends. So shut the fucknup, Val....fucking Hannibal...motherfucker...cannot be his original name...that fucking FBI team..."
Charlie: *claps her hands.* "So!"
Angel Dust: "Damn, poor Vox. Gets killed by a Cannibal then gets stuck with one as a friend for how many years? He obviously upgraded with your dad, Princess."
Husk: O_O
HELP ME HES SO PISSED ABOUT IT IMG ONNA CRY
i mean hes fucking. hes so fucking valid for that but like. HAHAHHWAHAHA VOX COME ON..... hes so fucking BAD at choosing his company. bro is getting full houses and STILL fucking losing in poker no one does it like he does.

what do you think jeff would think about you being really gentle when touching him- imagine you wanting to jerk him off or give him head and youā€™re just so sweet about it, touching him gently and sloppily and responding to his rough kisses with gentle and messy ones
heā€™d get a hard onā€¦ he actually thinks itā€™s amusing that you treat him gently and softly while heā€™s manhandling you and forcing his tongue into your mouth as he gropes roughly at your breasts. the way youā€™re so compliant and willing to please makes him want to laugh in your face but he enjoys how gentle you are in comparison to himself. it just marks off another reason in his twisted mind that you two are meant to be together.
i have wrote about a gentle/sweet reader giving him head and how he just basically used it against you. and itā€™s honestly true, he uses your soft heart against you to make you do things for him. he had a rough day and just wants his dick sucked, surely youā€™d be a sweet girl for him and help him out right? itā€™s the least you can do. but oh youā€™re so willing regardless of what he says. so softly kissing the tip of his cock while your hands slide up and down his length and you give him the prettiest doe eyes. itā€™s almost like you know what youā€™re doing with that innocent air about yourself. like you know it turns him on and makes him want to ruin you when you touch him and kiss him sweetly and mewl out praises over the smallest touch he gives you.
and the idea of making out with him, his hands guiding your hips down to grind against his throbbing cock in his pants. youā€™re so inexperienced itā€™s cute the way your hands hesitantly grab at his hoodie as you moan against his lips that are much better at kissing than yours are. and meeting his rough kisses with sloppy soft ones?? my stomach is doing flips hell i am doing flips like a fish gasping for water.

how is ayato treated as the more important sibling when hes the regular butt of everyone's joke daily? ayaka gets wayyy better treatment than him
Tumblr media
Ayato is the more common fan favorite of a sibling - regardless if he's the butt of any jokes, EVERYTHING in the Inazuman archon quests were of Ayaka's doing yet I constantly see her side stepped and Ayato treated as if he holds far more power than her being the technical head of the household, despite both of them being important political figures both with their own influences. Every other character in this game is the butt of some sort of joke but the bottom line was that I see immense dick riding and glorification of his existence, when his story quest was boiled down to being about everybody but him and he had genuine zero purpose in the general story aside from being the leader of the Shuumatsuban, which is a role Ayaka just as well could fufil. The point is I see far more Ayato fans and glorification, when the most I see of Ayaka nine times out of ten is either gross Aether harem content, or forehead jokes.
As to Ayaka's characterization I cannot fucking comprehend how. Wrong, that feels? Never once does she say "why won't people be my friends :(" she says that she understands her position of power and idolization is an important one and an isolating one where she HAS relationships but she feels nothing can be a REAL friendship like any other person could have because it will ALWAYS boil down to her status as a political figure, and she desperately wanted to befriend the traveler because they were the one person as an outlander she could be a real friend with and not connect it back to her status. She understands why she cannot have many friends and it is a sorrow she internalizes and wishes to share with the ONE person who she can.
Hey you know who else is a male character who understand and laments that they have near zero personal relationships disconnected to their status, role, or inherent life burden, that lament about this to the Traveler and consider them their only true friend they could ever confide in due to the nature of Traveler's existence, and would drop anything and everything to the Traveler's whim because they value them so much?
Xiao.
There's no male character that goes "w-w-w-w-w-why is nobody my friend :(" and neither is there a female one, because Ayaka does not ask why she has no friends, she's fucking lonely because she understands she cannot have many. I want to be really mean nonnie but I just. It feels a bit like you're proving the point of the whole post - which was Ayaka, along with these other two, being boiled down to underappreciated mischaracterizations when the men who play similar or lesser roles are far more glorified.
