And another thing (this is the last one, I promise, I will stop going on tags and rabbitholing my way into reading discussions i disagree with)

Another thing I don't know where came from is the idea that the rest of the party doesn't interact with their relationship, that it is something isolated and that the others don't comment or interfere with, that it's kept apart from the group, because that is simply not true?

I'm too lazy to look for exact quotes right now, but in episode 65 Ashton was the one, after Laudna's outburst, that insisted for her to go somewhere to reconnect with Imogen, sure Imogen kept saying she would be with Laudna, but Ashton very clearly knew that some time alone with Imogen could make her feel better.

But you also have other things sprinkled out through the campaign like the "are you staring because you are jealous?" From Fearne during the dusk arc, FCG after getting the share dream spell suggesting numerous times to use with them, FCG getting Imogen to kiss Laudna's forehead for the ritual, Orym comparing Imogen's loss to his own six years before, "that dead lady's got a lot of love in her heart", Ashton and FCG helping Laudna on the gift shop, Fearne trying to to help in episode 65 telling Laudna Imogen was thinking about her the whole time.

My point is the party is not alienated from them, they have private moments, sure, but some post I read was talking about how the party doesn't interfere with the "stagnation" of their relationship, which just sounds so weird to me? Where exactly do they need to interfere? Unless one of them was having trouble and was asking for advice (which is something that, ya know, happened) I don't see why they need to interject, unless you want their relationship/dynamic to change, because it is not your cup of tea, so it isn't that the other characters don't interact with their relationship is that you want the interaction to be different (which is valid, I disagree but everyone has their taste in shipping and fiction in general), but trying to say that they keep their relationship far removed from the others is not really true is it?

just a head's up: while I hesitate to call hiatus of any kind bc I want to give myself the freedom to write when I have the energy/focus/etc., I will just note that I'm gonna be even slower than usual around here for... idk, probably for a bit. I'm in the worst state mentally that I think I've ever actually been in and it's uhhhh. it's not great lmao. writing is my main escape & distraction so I don't want to step away from it but doing anything is hard as fuck rn so I'm really not interested in pressuring myself to get shit done when it comes to the hobby I'm supposed to be having fun with. I'll be slow, I'll be selective, and it's possible I'll be dropping a lot of drafts?? maybe?? OR at least like. temporarily removing a bunch from my drafts (to be added back later) just so the number is less big & overwhelming lmao.

thank u guys for ur patience w me & for writing w my glittery lil creature, I appreciate u all sm 💜

Head in hands. 'I Spy' with Pulp is such a banger for Zor. It's giving me the urge to finally think about designing them (+ redesigning a couple others..). There's something so good abt some of the lyrics like: "you see I spy for a living // and i specialise in revenge // on taking the things that i know will cause you pain". Like....likee.............

Theres earlier parts that also make my brain tick: "it may look like to the untrained eye // im sitting on my arse all day // I'm biding my time until i take you all on // my lords and ladies, i will not fail // i will prevail, cause i spy"

PLUS the name. That did not help the situation. Alas Different Class by Pulp 🤝 IEYTD Characters. Similar can be said about the Chicago soundtrack but thats a. Whole other ramble

Welp I have some incredibly kind mutuals so I went and finished(?) that Nicky sketch from the other day lol. :] Mostly the same but I gave him some silly little tattoos and bling (and sweatpants- I can't draw clothes for the life of me but he deserves to be cozy lol)

Also bonus repost of an old Taylor doodle lmao ignore the eraser marks pleeease

@wazzappp got me into ghost rider (v. robbie reyes) and let me play with some ideas plus mine.

so.

obviously, dying in a comic book universe means. less than nothing, half the time (unless you're a regular person, in which case rip), but man if your origin has you dying i think the technically completely and utterly dead angle should be leaned the hell in.

most of the time Robbie does look very alive from literally every standpoint (providing you dont look too close at his insides but. more on that later) but i think its fun to work with the idea that the magic/willpower/however it works has a time limit connected to his rider form-the longer he goes without transforming, the more it starts to fail, resulting in things like the vent and suit markings (<concept from wazzapp) becoming more prominent and metallic, his good eye getting milky and dull, any injuries gained not hurting, but also not healing, his skin losing vibrancy but also becoming kind of gray-ish because of increasing mercury levels in his blood (<another wonderful idea from wazzapp), and if he puts off burning up for long enough, even things like rigor mortis and livor mortis (blood pooling due to gravity) to start to set in if he stays still for long enough and coughing up toxic metal

by virtue of burning up his whole entire body, becoming the ghost rider resets the clock on his limit, although things get a bit wobbly once he realizes he's actually dead and he didn't resuscitate-resuscitate, on account of the wavering in the subconscious belief that helps hold him together

also, i think it's fun if Robbie's skull is always made of metal, not just when he's the Ghost Rider, it's just that. usually you can't see it (and bonus if he's working at least partially on zombie-esque rules, having metal protecting your brain is handy)

It's always so very strange to me that some people seem to think I want Ganondorf to not be a war criminal and do nothing wrong and be little uwu baby when... like, I know people often don't follow the fanwork produced by a given blog and it's completely cool and neat and fine, but.

In Descant, not only do I explore some of the horrible stuff he does, I'm *adding* war crimes. I'm like, making him more indefensible.

[fourthclone]

honestly, roche is so easy sometimes bc if you give him the smallest amount of praise and comfort he’s yours bc he’s just been that affection starved for a good while

i've been avoiding practicing driving because i've been preferring being in my own world lately and i HAVE to pay attention when driving so i just. don't. drive.

man i briefly opened telegram and i think someone i was talking to sent me some weird message about not contacting them because i haven't had the energy to talk to them since the weekend (because of the mental illness) and if this is true i gotta find a polite way to rebut that

[toopunkrockforshul]

I can't even remember the last time I was this physically tired ugh

[girl-bateman]

Feeling a debilitating sense of dread and despair 🤨 Which probably means nothing😍👍

Every time someone starts crying in Invincible it looks so silly I think if you need to animate someone crying you can't just go straight to rivers of tears falling out of their eyes while they look slightly sad or it's really hard to take seriously

Tbh? I still feel so out of my depth whenever I try to write Bill. For whatever reason it doesn't come naturally to me like writing Ford does. Every time one of y'all has thoughts on Bill's characterization or writes something Bill-centric I'm mentally taking so many notes
