was anyone gonna tell me shadow saved rouge's life in sa2 or was I just supposed to find that out playing the game myself
(this worked out as a rather fitting closer for the Final Day in Year of Shadow haha, hope ya'll have a fun new year! 🎉🎉🎉)
#happy new year!#closing 2024 with an actual honest to god comic layout I know I'm shocked too#that scene wasn't in the fandub and that's all I'd ever seen so it was a Fun Surprise!#shadow the hedgehog#rouge the bat#sonic#sonic adventure 2#sa2#my art#doodles#comic#no words though! rare form#fun fact the white jungle route is the Only route I ever executed Flawlessly first try#just give me a good countdown and suddenly I know how to play video games#and a fun one too! love the Drama#fun fact originally his dash was green since i assumed he was teleporting around as usual#but my friend pointed out he actually didn't have an emerald on him at the time#which meant if he Didn't find rouge in time or if she Didn't have an emerald they were Both going to die#which is Excellent fun#I do have a shitposty bonus to this because of course I do but we'll see if I have time to make it tonight or not haha#if I was a Little better laying this out the final panel would've centered under panel 2 shadow's hand#tragically it was late enough in the game when I got to that point I didn't want to fuck with the layout anymore#maybe next time I make a comic layout in 4 years!

Studying linguistics is actually so wonderful because when you explain youth slang to older professors, instead of complaining about how "your generation can't speak right/ you're butchering the language" they light up and go “really? That’s so wonderful! What an innovative construction! Isn't language wonderful?"
#linguistics#gen z slang#english#as people in the reblog pointed out!#most gen z slang comes from (or was appropriated from) aave#honestly I was just excited to talk about how people in my field actually get excited about non standard uses of English#instead of ridiculing speakers#and I tagged incorrectly and didn’t point out the very real issues of language and power and appropriation inherent in modern slang#in that much of it was appropriated#and even that which experiences language change in the wider culture still originated in aave#aave is just as linguistically valid as any other English dialect because it is a proper language#and the grammar is incredible!!!#habitual be is fantastic and an excellent example of how a richer case system or a certain case can render an adverb unnecessary#and the phonology is just beautiful#anyway I’m very sorry#I fucked up

Wait, the tsun event has a whole bit dedicated to Malleus bragging about what kitchen appliances he knows how to use? Twst EN just got the milk culinary crucible, which means at the same time Malleus is showing off, the entirety of the EN players are learning Leona doesn't know how to use a microwave. The timing really just makes it feel like Malleus is flexing on Leona XD
it's in Mal's card story rather than in the event proper, but yep! after teaching his tsum proper microwave usage, he takes it on a tour and very proudly shows off his extensive knowledge of household appliances. (except when he thinks his tsum fell into the washing machine and doesn't know how to unlock the lid, so he just. explodes it instead. hashtag just diasomnia things. 🤷)
I do think he and Leona should get into a fight about who has done a better job of learning how to use kitchen tools! Leona has the advantage of having grown up in the modern world, but Malleus has the motivation to actually do literally anything. who will win
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#tsumsted wonderland#guest starring leona tsum for no reason other than i felt like it#i really should do more with leona and malleus tbh#because i do love how leona tries so hard to not care about anything#but mal just annoys him SO MUCH he can't help it#and on the flipside malleus is (all things considered) remarkably chill#except when someone is a dick to him at which point he instantly becomes the world's pettiest asshole#it's all so excellent#also there's one bit where leona calls him a coathanger and i will never ever get over it

Did you make Needles for the atrocious amount of Michael Shelly stans out there (a group in which I can be counted) or were the similar vibes just a happy little accident?
Neither, really - sometimes you just gotta write a nasty sharp man, then part if your brain goes "the shellyfellas are gonna love this" and another part goes "is that a problem?" and the first part goes "no, just sayin" and then you go make a cup of tea.
#tbf I think a lot of the Michael vibes are from the VAs excellent performance#Which I don't have any real control over#But also#Stabby boys be stabbin

"I'm... I'm here to tell you..." To tell him what? That it's fine? That I don't hate you? That everything is fine? That I don't blame you for having killed Jin ZiXuan? It was impossible. But she couldn't say anything that was the opposite either. And so, she didn't know what else she could say to Wei Wei WuXian, under such circumstances. It was just that she felt like she had to see this brother of hers once more. / "You ran so fast, I could hardly get a look at you."

#there is an EXCELLENT jiang cheng wei wuxian edit out there to this song and i think jiang yanli deserves a little leonard cohen too <3#as a treat <3#just that line that i guess that i miss you i guess i forgive you!#and yes i DID change the last line so it suits her final sacrifice better#that quote is from the novel which i am becoming frighteningly close to reading one day#anyway!#jiang yanli#the untamed#theuntamededit#that shot of her and wei wuxian staring at each other her in her mourning clothes is one of my favorite shots in the show it makes me WAIL#so apologies for using it in every edit ever#also if you're wondering why no gifs? my screenrecorder function is buggy so :/ screenshots only for me alas

kaz brekker: this madness (a crush on inej) has GOT to stop!!!
also kaz brekker, when speaking to inej: i would come for you. and if i couldn’t walk, i’d crawl to you, and no matter how broken we were, we’d fight our way out together.
#six of crows#crooked kingdom#kanej#kaz brekker#inej ghafa#35% thru crooked kingdom#35% deep into the most gripping literary crashout i have ever read#who is doing it like you kaz brekker#no one i’ll tell you#‘i am a patient boy. it is what makes me an excellent criminal. anyway why the everloving FUCK is inej not back yet’#‘i do not care about inej. i am just walking on my brutalized leg up many flights of stairs and across rooftops to be with her#and i cannot let her out of my sight. which could mean nothing.’#sabrina feasts#grishaverse

maybe an unpopular opinion but despite my passion for self development, i honestly dislike most typical 'self development' books and really believe you get a lot more self-expansion out of reading creative non-fiction, essays, philosophy, and literature. engagement with these types of works will expand your intellect and teach you how to grapple with big ideas for yourself, rather than following the rules set out by some girl boss or hustle bro in their glorified marketing pamphlet 'book'.
#i work in marketing and most of those books are vanity projects to market their personal brand...#which is not to say their insights can't be valuable but i take with a huge grain of salt#besides wouldn't you rather learn how to find your own answers?#personal excellence#it girl#it girl energy#that girl#becoming that girl#self improvement#self worth#self care#glow up#level up#self development#lucky girl syndrome#high value mindset#vanilla girl#glow up journey

may I have some of sans and dust interacting in the replace au 👀 like maybe how sans acts at first or like dust questioning him about y/n and sans just starts yapping about everything he loves about y/n idk
Thanks for the ask! Sorry I took awhile, I've been a bit under the weather :P
Sans is pretty apprehensive of Dust at first, (considering he knocked him tf out and locked him up in the basement with no way to teleport his way out💀) but when he checks Dust and sees just how much LV he has he becomes wary of his intentions, and even more concerned when he realizes that he plans to essentially steal his life.

He doesn't know what Dust did, but can infer by Dust’s general behavior that on some level it must have been out of desperation. But hes also a bit biased because he really wants to believe that... (He doesn’t want to accept the fact that he ended up like Dust in another life)

He initially gives Dust the benefit of the doubt, He willingly talks to him about his life on the surface at first, about his partner, about his friends and family, while still trying to persuade him that they can figure this out together.

But Dust is adamant that stealing his life is the only way. That he wouldn’t be accepted by other monsters if they knew what he had… gone through.
(Sans trusting Dust enough to tell him about his life on the surface unfortunately only cements Dust’s plan, Sans’ efforts to convince Dust he could have a happy life now only made Dust envious of the life he could have had. The life he distantly thinks he deserves atleast a little taste of, despite all the sins he’s committed.)

So despite sans’ efforts, he’s left to rot in the basement.

Obviously, being left to rot and having your life stolen would put a sour taste in anyone’s mouth, so sans eventually starts to hate Dust.
———
I ended up making a comic laying out their strained relationship since you made me think about the complexity of their dynamic a bit more.
The girls are fighting… 🫢










Dust relies on Sans and he hates it. He could kill him sure, but then what? That question of "what if" lingers in the back of his mind. What if you find him out? What if he slips up somewhere and can't cover up his mistake in time? He wasn't looking for permanence with you initially... was just jealous, wanted a taste of the life he could have had… but now he's gotten attached to you. He's afraid of losing this. Losing you. And they both know that fear will be his downfall.
Sans' side of this is a bit complicated however. He doesn't want to admit it to himself but he's upset you haven't noticed him missing. Dust tends to taunt him about that, as it's really the only leverage he has... but it slowly begins to eat at him over time. He doesn't blame you really, since Dust has proved to be a pretty good impersonator. But either way, the fact that you aren't noticing any difference between him and Dust will put a strain on him. And depending on what ending, a strain on your relationship entirely.
Sans also becomes increasingly desperate, having his own distant thoughts of overpowering or even killing Dust and escaping. But refrains from doing so, afraid of ending up just like Dust in the end.

what's your LEAST favourite herptile? the stupidest frog? the ugliest lizard? no, not either of those. so which one is it?
it's actually the very word 'herptile'. It's like saying 'birdosaurs'.
I'm guessing it stems from people wanting to expand 'herp' out into a longer word that is a noun for the animals we study as herpetologists or are interested in as 'herpers'. But that doesn't really exist. So we get this weird portmanteau of herp and reptile, apparently forgetting the amphibians. Reptibian or Amphibitiles would be better portmanteaus if we actually wanted a reasonable word representing both groups.
#in which I find out that I have a possibly unjustified but remarkably visceral dislike of the world herptile#and then try to justify it#all actual herps are excellent#in their natural habitats they are incredible creatures and none deserve any hate#answers by Mark#yurimartyr#sorry#original version of this post sounded very grumpy
