hi i have not been feeling it lately but i need to share the mirror images i had of nithral picking up yaevinn like a wet cat and yaevinn looking like :3 about it and kinkaide picking up vian like a wet cat and vian giving everyone in sight the most withering death glare. i'm talking nat 20 +8 modifier type shit. they are killing you with their laser eyes

to be clear: I don't know if there is a single situation where nithvinn would have this experience. If there is. that's fucking hilarious actually. On the flipside, I think this has already happened to vinkaide and we just don't know it yet.

#the citrus speaks #healing hands #sunsnow #the ttrpg tag(tm)#i don't know why this is so funny to me #also i just need to say #they are both reckless motherfuckers #the difference is that yaevinn isn't particularly stubborn unless it's really important #vian on the other hand will not budge until they have to #which has been to their detriment #multiple times #do you want the list /j #anyway i enjoy comparing yaev and vian a lot actually #they are Very Different

greg said actually i wanna take YOU out and I'M gonna pay for it

#also it's so cute how he says 'visited' instead of just 'been to' like you can tell he learned how to talk from tv #tomgreg #greg hirsch #which side are you on?#fr why is this part not talked about much beyond the Thor Loves Poptarts-ification of greg loving cpk #tom says my gf is out. so let's go out to dinner. the moment greg understands that it's a serious proposal he's SO excited #and it's clearly NOT for any notion of fine dining. he doesn't ask tom 'where are we going'#no. he wants to go out with TOM!! he has a restaurant in mind that's a treat for him and he's excited to share that with tom #i think he is feeling a tiny bit snubbed at the end by the way tom refuses to let greg have the upper hand #like tom asked him out and greg literally asked him out right back. and rather than be excited tom is like no I'M doing the asking out!! lo #but yknow ultimately tom has his own thing that he already really wanted to share with greg #he IS delighted that greg has unrefined tastes bc it means he gets to treat him. he gets to be the reason for greg's awe #also he just thinks it's cute imo #and greg took to it as much as one can when they've already been more or less forcefed (much like the ortolan he eats lol)#anyway. tom's need to feel in control is his detriment bc greg wanted to treat him to some cajun chicken linguine and then fuck him silly #mine

#ok finally making a post about meds #I've not ever tried taking medication before. I was sorta raised with that classic 'dont rely on meds you have to learn to manage without'#I mean I was also raised with the idea that therapy is stupid unless you have 'real' trauma. and also like idk.#can't stay home from school unless your temp is over 100 or you're throwing up. etc. very suck it up mindset #so I was just really nervous to start. also of course worried about losing myself or whatever I know that's a silly fear but #it's also a common fear for a reason!!! anyways #so I finally was like 'I need to do something' when I realized I was so anxious I couldnt even get myself to go outside alone #like I just don't want to do ANYTHING alone to a detrimental effect. and it was butting into my ability to do my work...#for various reasons. but then ALSO adhd has been a constant issue with my work as well!#it is SO hard to write and draw on a weekly pace like I am without being able to focus #my whole life I've had these terrible nightmares constantly and I've always woken up constantly in the night #sleep has always been terrible so I've always dreaded going to bed.. ESPECIALLy because it didnt even make me less tired #it was more something that I just did because I had to.#but going to bed was always terrible. there have been times I was too scared to go to sleep for weeks on end...#I've been mitigating this for years of course. and recently I've been taking melatonin which has been helping too.#but I've also always struggled to get up. because I've always been EXTREMELY exhausted #but also anxious of what the day might bring... idk.#anyways it has all hit a point that I was like okay. I am doing as many coping mechanisms as I can. the psych said they were good too #but... it just has never been enough. it's never been enough to make me not tired it's never been enough to make me not scared #so I finally talked to the doc about it. and she was like youve def got smth wrong basically. which yah I know.. but yknow #anyways so I started taking wellbutrin. and I am so frustrated now. because it's WORKING #that constant looming sense of dread is gone. I'm excited to get up. I'm excited to go to bed BECAUSE I'm excited to get up #I feel like for years I've been holding on to the idea that I have to get up because I have to put something good out into the world #and I've been clinging to knowing that if nothing else. I am able to help other people feel better.#but now for the first time in my life I'm like. free of it. I didnt even know it was possible... and I'm so sad how much I've lost out on #and so frustrated how my whole life I've been told to put up with it and push through it. and treated like a failure for it being too much.#and just. It has only been 2 weeks. but the lack of anxiety is SO noticeable I'm so...#I'll never miss it. the adhd is still pretty present but like whatever. I can manage that better.#and I'm just crying because of all this combined.#I just. I hope I get to finally be the best I can be now. for myself but also for you guys!

maekar's sons ranked on how much they like and love him:

1. egg (still an innocent child full of hope)

2. aerion (unforch daddy's fave & he loves attention)

3. aemon (sent to the citadel without dinner)

4. daeron (saddled him with egg and made him participate in group activities)

#and this is completely different from a ranking of which child maekar likes best btw to daeron's detriment #hmm maybe aemon should be higher bc he doesn't /live/ with maekar but i think being set to the citadel is enough to sour anyone #maekar targaryen #aegon v targaryen #aerion targaryen #aemon targaryen #daeron targaryen (son of maekar)#valyrianscrolls #this has been a post

One of my old giveaways popped up in my notes and I saw it had 40k notes. And that was just normal back then.

Boy, has tumblr dramatically changed in the last few years lol

#I can’t even imagine that number of notes these days #I remember when I’d post the most low effort picture of a crystal #and it would get like 2k notes #now I’ll spend hours trying to make the perfect most aesthetically pleasing post #and it will get 50 notes #hahaha 💀#it’s crazy how tumblr tries to deny there’s a fraction of the users on here that there used to be #also the culture has shifted and people don’t like reblogging as much anymore #which has been a big detriment to creators #or artists #whatever you want to call the people making original content #but anyway

I enjoy Lestat/Armand as much as the next girl but I gotta say I find it real weird that so many Interview fans are focusing on this idea that Armand’s pain over Louis and Lestat’s lingering relationship must be about this idea that Lestat has never loved him and not about the fact that this man he’s been with for decades, who has loved Armand (in a relationship with VERY weird power dynamics I should add) is still clearly in love with the ex who loves him back

“But in the books” yeah I know but the SHOW has focused (rightly so) on Armand’s relationship with Louis far more than his relationship with Lestat at this point and I don’t know there’s something real fucking weird about people making every character beat in Armand and Louis’s relationship not only about Lestat (because certainly, on Louis’s side Lestat is almost always there on some level, and I’m sure Lestat feels the same about Louis) but about Armand’s unrequited love for Lestat

It’s this combination of infantilizing Armand, one of the most physically powerful characters in the narrative, and kind of reveling in this idea that he’s sexually undesirable, and that Louis is an also-ran for his affections when the SHOW’S narrative has given us comparatively little about the Lestat/Armand dynamic. We know way more about Louis and Armand than we do about Lestat and Armand in the show.

Like “oh Armand can’t tell Louis that Lestat loves him because he’s always wanted to hear those words from Lestat” lol I’m sure that hearing Lestat say that was rough but perhaps it was also rough to, after listening to hours of his husband obsessing over Lestat, consider telling his husband Lestat loves him still and open that door even further??? Perhaps it was about Armand’s feelings for Louis, more so?

It looks really weird, especially in the updated context of the show.

#interview with the vampire #me after this episode in which armand had a mental breakdown and mindfucked everyone:#ARMAND IS A CATCH!#but no seriously this narrative of armand as a sniveling beggar hoping for lestat to smile upon him…#especially when the show has created a story in which the person whose affections armand has been chasing #to his own detriment #is LOUIS #like you’re also ignoring louis’s value

#✨praise be✨ to nghy!!!!!! ✨nghy f o r e v e r✨#it’s really nice to see more nghy supporters on the horrific birdsite in these trying times~~~~~~~~#g. granted yesterday’s mv d i d make some nghy shippers jump ship to. uh. lhy. but.#eff tee four twt has (un)surprisingly(?) taken the side of their fellow sicks in this hiyoship naval battle which is n i c e #didn’t appreciate seeing that one thread that insinuated that the nghy plotline was canon divergence bc ‘lhy canon’#bc. man. bringing up koiiro in this day and age when it’s been said that yujiro and hiyo’s appearance at the end was only to indicate #the start of a new gen is. kinda detrimental to your argument?#but. hm. tbf it’s very easy to pick and choose what’s canon and not in this series lol #like. 3/4 of official content is found in supplementary material (novels; manga; staff interviews; etc) outside of the mvs #so i think sane people who have better things to do with their lives than obsess over a lil’ country girl and her complicated relationships…#both romantic-wise (with nagisa) and friendship-wise (with lxl in gen and that chizuconflict) could potentially miss the full picture #about the gen 3 relationship lore and such…#man. if only honeypre didn’t eos. it could’ve saved canon continuity. it adapted all the other media (sans lxl movie) really well…#a n d it even gave us ship developments for ariken that are still referenced today (their first kiss being arisa’s cheek kiss to ken)#either way. i’m now expecting them to address yesterday’s mv in an interview when they inevitably release their next charasong album lol #especially since they’re nagisa’s biggest cheerleaders!!!!!!! c’mon hw support your main man!!!!!!!#ok yup that’s enough interwebs for one day time to binge niji.gaku s2—

Gotta admit

At this point, I'm actually slightly relieved when there's no FE4 remake announced, just because the Switch is getting old and FE4 is a big goddamn game and so I've always been lowkey worried how they'd handle the map sizes. So it being the flagship new Fire Emblem game for a next generation Nintendo console honestly sounds like the best possible case scenario

#lbh. if it gets released on the switch at this point it's in serious danger of ending up like SoV #not in the sense that SoV is a bad game by ANY means #but. I literally never even heardof its existence until 3h was coming out. and I played Fateswakening.#then AGAIN you could argue SoV was way better than previous remakes bc they knew the console so well by then #and took their timw making it rather than rushing for a deadline #tbh my kinda guess/hope is that the next console is well underway #and FE4 was designed for the Switch initially but has been switched over (heh) to it instead #so all the art/writing will get plenty of time. which is the most important thing for fe4.#and maybe it'll avoid getting bogged down in new gem gimmicks???#OR itll get forced into complying to advertise the new console to great detriment #LOOK this whole thing is copium we all know we'll be waiting for this remake for all time lol #*tempts fate 👀*#fe4 #fire emblem

Honestly though saying (or implying) that vocaloid or vocal synths in general "devalues the human voice" is SUCH an incredibly shit take for SO many reasons.

Like yeah Saki Fujita getting so many other roles in voice acting because of her contribution to Hatsune Miku (the anime cameos and stuff are usually done with her original voice, them modified to be robotic) is a bit of an outlier when most other vocaloid and sythns don't have that influence.

You can even sort of wave off the dozens upon dozens of people who go for realistic tuning- like whenever a synth has any sort of clarity, there are like five people commenting about how real they sound. Clearly people do still care about human sounding vocals, because they go nuts over realistic vtuning.

There are many different aspects of vocaloid that use human voices, too- from Set It Off's duet "Why Do I?", human rap artists using Miku's vocals as background, and the entire CONCEPT of Project Sekai which releases AND COMMISSIONS songs for vocal synths and real people.

But the sheer number of vocaloid producers who use their own vocals as back up (MikitoP, PinoochioP, and I believe Kira off the top of my head), the number of producers who can sing and/or do self covers (again Kira, GIGA, Ayase, Teniwoha, syudou and so many more), and the amount of vocal producers who have gone forward with legit musical careers after working with vocaloid (Kenshi Yonezu, most notably, who did work for years under the alias Hachi)

I mean, hell. There are vocaloid producers who go on to become vocaloid vocals themselves- like nostraightanswer, the vocal provider for DEX, who has made both vocaloid and original songs. Some even duets.

That's not even including creators like JubyPhonic, Rachie, Will Stenson, Lollia, Octavia, Razzy and Co., and SO many other HUMAN cover artists who gained following or honed their skills on none other than vocaloid covers. (And that's just a handful of English Cover artists, not like Sati Akura a Russian cover artist or Ado who has commissioned songs from vocaloid artists)

It's also not including UTAUites who input their own voices to use for covers.

"Devalues the human voice" is such blatant bs. They ARE human voices. They are OUR voices. "You'd think by now that we would have learned, behind every piece if art is a human to be heard." (- CircusP, 'Better Off Worse')

#and another thing #about bad faith interpretations #'it isn't that creative'#is just astronomically funny to me #because oh yeah I forgot how Detrimental (Maki ft. Big Al) sounds EXACTLY like Afraid Of Everything (Luka) and Better Off Worse (vFlower)#and Misery Loves Company (DEX) which are all by the same creator Circus-P #Usseewa sounds EXACTLY like Idiot and Cute Girlfriend (sydou)#Piece Of Art sounds exactly like Machine Gun and Games and Boom! Boom! Boom! (Kira)#hell even producers like DECO and wowaka who have styles that they tend to follow still sound differeng #Rollin Girl. Unknown Mother Goose. Two Faced Lovers- they're all distinct songa #Animal. Cinderella. Vampire. Zombies. and other DECO songs from the same line are still all uniquely different #hell 'no creativity'?#say that to (Not) A Devil where Miku duets HERSELF in the tuning style of two different producers (DECO*27 and Pinocchio P)#the people making duet covers with UTAU and VSythn Teto #vocaloid has always been a haven for creatives #for the artists who draw. the designers who make outfits. tuners. lyricists. MV makers. cover artists.#I'd say there's never been a more cohesively creative community #which is a little biased but genuinely #there's such an incredible outreach from the community as it grows #as it has grown

What Kind Of Love Are You?

Love as Religion

Devotion, that is the name of your love. Your love is an act of worship. Your love is like witnessing the birth of Venus, like seeing the sun come alive, or the stars fall. When you love, it is because you have found God in a lover. You have found the meaning of life itself in the heart of the one you adore. They are everything to you; they are your Maker, and you are their lamb, their flock, their first and holiest worshipper. When you fall in love, it is as a baptism. You are born anew, made a believer in the divinity of the one you love most. Being loved by you is an ascension; it is holy and golden. It is all-consuming, and all-faithful, loyal as the dog. You will never, ever bite back.

Tagged by: @masquenoire Tagging: @foolish-pleasure, @the-rorschach-mask, @sanguine-salvation, @mute-call, @onopoeia (your muse choice!), @nightmarefuele (your muse choice!), @bcnamighdall, (And anyone else who wants to do the thing. =D)

#Kill City Killer ( Riverisms )#(HAHAHAAAAA WELL ISN'T THIS JUST THE AWFULLY-TRUE RESULT. 8'D)#(When Riv falls she falls hard the only love that would outrank that which she has for her partner would be the love she has for Dagny.)#(But otherwise she's super ride-or-die and would basically go to the ends of the earth for someone she loves... To benefit and detriment.)#(She's of course been burned by love before but can still be manipulated fairly easily by any future lovers if she's not careful. Dx;;;;)

I’ll make at least one formatting mistake on every fic I publish till the end of time but some matter a lot and some are pretty much inconsequential so when it’s the latter that’s a win.

#(italics not showing up in a couple places on the fic i just published but that’s not actually a detriment to this fic the way it was when #it happened to reading TRB (which has been corrected now on that front)#s speaks
