carnis au or also 'one meat', have some lore!

#trafalgar law #monkey d luffy #my art #my comic #op carnis au #described in alt text #totally forgot i drew that like. last week or smth. the idea is exploring themes of paranoia and perceived paranoia. conspiracy and also #surviving the fuck up thing that live inside your hourse and all your friends insist is the same guy as always. it's also law investigating #what happened to luffy and who he was since he never befriended him or anything. the mimic is creep af but doesn't seems to want to kill #law. rather it tells him it'd be sad without him which scares law even more. this luffy was very isolated. he moved after ace's death. no #family. his friends in another region/country? he was all alone and easy to replace without anyone noticing.#unrelated but doflamingo 100% is a mimic btw. it just fits. not all that relevant tho cause i want this au to be very centered on law n luf

In which Ford struggles so badly to relate to other people that he wonders if he’s really human at all. The more isolated he becomes, the harder it is to reconcile with his own humanity.

#my art #gravity falls #Stanford pines #ford pines #bill cipher #comic #eye strain #TIME TO DUMP EVERY ONE OF THE 27483949 THOUGHTS IVE HAD INTO THE TAGS BABY #OK!! SO!!!!#I feel like Ford would wonder why he and Stan (being identical twins) aren’t. yk. identical. shouldn’t Stan have polydactyly too?#as a kid he would dream about secretly being nonhuman and being whisked away to a fantastical world full of people like him #finally free of new jersey‚ finally somewhere he belongs #a lot of this disconnect from humanity came from utterly failing at social interactions while others (including stan) navigated them easily #the feeling waned after Stan was kicked out and he didn't have that direct comparison but it never left #then out in the wilderness of gravity falls‚ his isolation and immersion in Weirdness dragged it back up to the forefront #he deserves to have a breakdown over questioning his own nature. as a treat <3 #color symbolism time bc I have a problem and use it at every available moment!!! blue and yellow get more vivid #the further from humanity the subject is #bill is entirely made w pure rgb blue and yellow (+ approximately 2674835 textures/layers/blending modes. I reached 150+ layers. help)#I like the idea that he would appear to ford like pure math considering hes a geometrical motherfucker and how the rest of the mindscape wa #I tried to mostly use trigonometry and related stuff for the Math Greebling. as well as fractals i love you forever fractals #MORE SYMBOLISM:#the grid-ish diamond pattern in all of the mindscape bgs (and elsewhere) is a penrose diagram of spacetime #which shows other universes on the other sides of black holes #SOMEONE ASK ME ABOUT MY EUCLYDIA HEADCANON LATER. IVE DUMPED ENOUGH DUMB HCS IN THESE TAGS ALREADY #BUT I THINK ITS VERY FUN #anyways. fuckt up guys n their egos influencing how they view humanity. bill tells ford hes as human as they come bc he was so easily foole #ford cant reconcile with his humanity bc of a failure to perform in one area #and then the immense guilt and shame over what hes done <3 #I have So many ford characterization thoughts. no man nor god can stop me

to the people saying jinx could never reciprocate ekko's love in the main timeline because of everything she's been going through... i need you to examine your unconscious biases against mentally ill characters

#i also think s2's pacing issues haven't helped #like we don't know how much time has passed between when ekko saves jinx from offing herself and the final battle #and apparently it wasn't a one day thing because of the jinx fixes everything mini game #there's A LOT we didn't get to see #and that bothers me because then we get takes like this #and it's like... no #just because a character has mental health issues doesn't mean they aren't capable of love #or capable of “reciprocating”#au powder also deals with a lot of shit #she just has a community by her side that supports her #which is what jinx has lacked due to silco's isolation and the trauma she's suffered in the main timeline #and we actually get to see in the show how jinx improves the more she creates meaningful bonds with people and reaches out #SO YEAH #timebomb #arcane #timebomb rambles #i can't stop thinking about them

i think there's really something to be said about how there has never been a record i've encountered where people wanted justification or excuse to refuse to acknowledge the intention and seriousness of the project itself like danger days by both defenders and haters. i find it so incredibly bizarre and strange and partially fascinating.

#its all wrapped up in what danger days represents for people partially.#like idk ive been trying to verbalize it for yeaarsss but it always feels like people rhetorically discuss it as a side-effect #of whatever neurosis soothes their narrative. its a record of immense mania and tragedy for some people for instance #which i find very laughable but whatever. people want dd to be miserable for so many reasons #which is immediately rendered sort of null when you compare parade. both the touring and the album making process.#like realistically this is a band that every single record is shaded with immense difficulty and uncertainty #but instead of dealing with that fans love to sort of isolate danger days since its this moment of betrayal its the beginning of the end #its not what people wanted #when realisitically the single biggest creative pressure on the band would've been being severely in debt #to the label for scrapping con weap. LMAO. but that never factors. because its about narratives.#like danger days To Me is an incredibly ambitious record. clearly personal. artistically inspired. absolutely rushed job #because they were bleeding money.#but its cool that they took that stand!!! and they had to have felt collectively passionate enough to do that in the first place!#but people want to engage with it on the terms of their disappointment. or the record as a harbinger of doom.#idk i was reading rym reviews (a mistake) and its wild how the critical positive consensus is either #incredibly stupid teenagers thinking mcr want to firebomb a walmart or 'well its not as good but i like fun things!'#am i crazy for thinking it more serious than that? that its pulling sonically from a wide array of inspirations and actually working #in conversation with them???#anyway. synths 4ever.#my posts

love thinking kipperlilly spends her afterlife looking for lucy in a familiar forest

#not art #fhjy #fhjy spoilers #like. does she have a mean of knowing lucy and yolanda got sent to cassandra's domain to hang out for a bit #kipperlilly's isolation means so much to me. she is punished for everything she's done she just doesn't pick up on it #until the moment she dies! one more funky thing that mirrors riz in which he's actively tried to cultivate a community and denied it #until the bad kids. while kipperlilly does not want or care about a community she just wants someone who validates her #but she does Need a community so she latches onto the person she lets closer to her to fulfill her emotional needs #she took the ritual willingly so this might genuinely be her first death. probably terrifying #probably not even enough bandwidth to feel mortified. maybe immediately seeking something comforting out of instinct alone #lmao honestly thinking too much abt fantasy high afterlifes gives me a headache And a visceral fear #Im not religious but I grew up in a culture with a dominantly buddhist/taoist cosmology its Scary that u just go to A Place after u die!!#and then ur still urself!!! thats scary to me what do u mean u stay like that forever. thats fucked #but yeah I think this influences how I see kipperlilly turn out a little bit. in a sense I think of her as being a ghost now #yknow. trying to solve something from life so she can move on and. stop living this life etc #man the reveal that lucy took being killed pretty seriously and is like yeah the others are decent and even sweet #and probably was just trying to hold her party together and do what she thinks is moral by hearing kipperlilly out #lol lmao etc. gods I gotta wonder how kipperlilly's mindset handled jawbones' help #it really is damn tragic tho. I stand by what I said folks like this will complain and be nasty to be around #but they dont have enough desire to inconvenience themselves to off the bat do something abt what they find unfair or whatever #its when theyre handed the seemingly very easy means to be right that they'll start being dangerous #its horribly tragic that the supposed metaplayer and the self-perceived mastermind turned out to ultimately be just an useful idiot #yknow what. I think personally in my heart kipperlilly moves on from her afterlife the moment she says sorry #doesnt even have to be to lucy but that's probably gonna be who received it #ah.... teenage rebellion. teenage gamejacking

the coolest kids in forgotten valley!!☆

(…it seems there may have been a stretch of time where rock and lumina were the only kids in forgotten valley…🥲)

poseref

#in the remake hugh and the player’s kid are the same number of years apart #so i can see them having very similar conversations n friendship #surely these two kids will grow up well adjusted and they will have no lasting effects from this kind of isolation. they will be fine #i have been thinking a lot about what their childhoods were like. i want to protect both of them #everyone who has anything to say about them as kids says that both of them were not well behaved children at all #tei says rock was rambunctious and energetic and hard to handle. sebastian says lumina was less than amenable #rock says he was bored to death when he first came here and lumina asks you not to tell romana that she’s lonely #lumina also hated wearing dresses so. she is very mad and ready to bite people maybe #sos awl #bokumono #my art #rock tumbling (sos)#harvest moon #story of seasons #story of seasons a wonderful life #bokujou monogatari #i like to imagine a au where pony and cecilia come to visit their family’s respective farms #so these two can have more friends ;w;#i am always thinking about how they were both severed from their families and taken in by someone else at a young age to live in nowhere #and they are both not exactly enthused about following the path laid out for them #headcanon ⚠️ i wonder if rock’s moving out on his own happened when he was a teenager. he was extremely confident everything would work out #anyway he got fired from every job ever and after many years came crawling back. and he came crawling back blond #at the time of chapter 1 lumina is baffled by the state of the guy she grew up with. why is he using dated slang and wearing disco costume #she is also kind of mad at him for having been gone for so long #hc rock probably had more freedom as a kid than lumina did which probably annoyed her #once again takakura retrieves a small rock from the goddess pond and he’s covered in poison ivy bee stings etc. no remorse #lumina from her window on the hill feels somehow jealous of these misadventures #lumina mentions in her heart event that she doesn’t often visit the beach because her skin burns easily #meanwhile rock was probably playing outside always. if his kid is any indication #idk i like thinking about the history of this extremely small village

what do you think Danse does to keep himself busy after blind betrayal, specifically if he's living in sanctuary? I just love your takes on him a lot haha

I think Danse is very lost in any settlement but especially Sanctuary. It was the first and very close-knit at that with the small group the Sole Survivor founded it with. Each time they would invite a new companion to live there it was like adding a pillar to the community and represented what the Minute Men stood for when it came ot uniting and protecting the commonwealth as one. I am not going to say it's cliquey, in fact I feel like SoSu and Preston/Sturges would go out of their way to make newcomers feel welcome but for Danse that is very different.

He (from my playthrough experience) is one of the later companions. I ran around a lot and got a good portion of the companions and their quest before act one was done. He is also one of the few companions who openly thinks lowly of life in the commonwealth and certain citizens (if not all citizens to an extent). He did not introduce himself to Sanctuary to make friends or roots. So when he gets stuck there under the SoSu's "orders" (not letting him rot in sorrow in some random bunker) he doesn't have any comfort or companionship, in fact, I think he has more tensions and beef tbh.

I imagine the first weeks or even a month or two were rough. I don't think it is stated enough that like Danse went to that bunker intending to follow Brotherhood protocols and kill himself. SoSu may have convinced him not to in the moment but with someone like Danse, so rigid and stuck in an ideology even after it spits in his face, it's not unlikely he has a weird guilt about being alive at first. It doesn't help that I know in my heart that a few of the more petty or insensitive companions or settlers would tease him about it (playful meanness) thinking he was adjusting well (or not caring) to the Sanctuary life and coming to terms with his identity. Sometimes they go too far and it's easy to tell he's gotten back into the headspace, looking at his reflection, trying to remember concrete dates for his memories, etc..

I have this head canon that SoSu recognized this pattern as they had to have immense survivor's guilt (especially after being in Kellogs brain) about surviving the vault. They had the same idea about making things "fair" for the other vault dwellers and Shaun was the only thing between them and those thoughts for a while. For the first weeks it was a lot of SoSu monitoring him and making sure he was adjusting and not falling back into that thinking, y'know the whole "I am a disgrace and abomination against the Brotherhood and humanity. The only thing I can do to no longer sully the honor of either is to kill mys-" Like stopping that with minor distractions.

It would be a lot of small work and building projects and patrols for lost scavengers or to make sure no one is stalking the place. It's nice for him for a while, he's getting social interaction and he's not dead in the eyes of at least one Brotherhood member, especially one of as high rank as the SoSu. But it's also really unhealthy. Danse was trained and raised in a militaristic pseudo-religious faction. As much as there seemed to be casualness towards comrades there was a strict structure and order. He shoves the SoSu into that role and probably gets nick-named as their shadow during this period.

They are his only goal as he has nothing else and it shows bad. The rest of the settlement notices he trails after them and only really does his own thing when it's part of a task he was doing for, with or assigned by the Sole survivor. It's not an obsession with them specifically but he has lost his entire understanding of life and this is the one thing that stayed concrete. He does what he's asked of because following the Sole survivor has at least kept him belonging somewhere and why mess that up?

I am sure SoSu is not oblivious and is actively trying to figure out how to get Danse to start socializing and trying to actually settle into the community but for the time being Danse would treat himself like the machine he perceives himself as; Overworking himself as he believes machines don't need the same amount of rest, isolating himself and mostly trying to not have a mental breakdown every time he get into the power armor that is very much not his issued Brotherhood of Steel tech. He openly does this in respect of the General who hates it and makes everyone else uncomfortable.

this was very long just to say I think Danse just works himself to the bone all day and purposely puts thoughts in his already fragile psyche that everyone hates him and only tolerates his presence to not seem Synth-phobic and the Sole survivor's favor.

#like every companion is ready for their little one liners on the irony of danse being a synth and danse just drops #'had I been more stubborn i would've fufilled my last duty to the brotherhood and taken my life but... that's not important how may i help'#this is just him explaining why he's here or as like a personal factoid like thats not the most crazy thing to admit to someone you dont fw #Like Danse's past memories are rather isolating too and parallel too much how toxic religous sects indoctrinate vulnerable peoples and #instill their ideals which leads to blind faith. It is on Danse for fully accepting the ideals and acting on them but it still is the fact #is the ideal product of the BoS system to the point he is willing to end his own life if you fail to do so just to uphold their values. he #is like deeply troubled before and after the quest and only left worse off with zero resolution as we see hints of change but he is scared #of denouncing his beliefs because it was the only thing in his life for so long. it was his life and i feel like the settlement slowly #realizes this as they see him not knowing how to be without the brotherhood. anyway good ramble thanks #fallout #fallout 4 #fo4 #paladin danse #tw sui ideation #ask #anon #sorry this was long and rambly

More cishet observations from the past month at work:

- They really fucking buzz off of the TERF wizard book series

- Their favourite place on Earth is Florida (why???)

- If you tell them you're an artist, they will ask you if you've ever "tried out AI"

- They will joke about OCD a lot

- They absolutely hate their bodies and will take any opportunity to talk about food in a toxic way (bonus points if they compare their body/food to yours)

- They hate their spouses and think that this is funny

- They. Do not. Have interests. (Besides the TERF wizard book series)

- They don't watch movies or TV??

- If they have kids, the way they talk about them makes it sound like it was genuinely the worst decision they ever made

- If they don't have kids, they will still fucking talk about having them

- They don't like cats??

In other weird news, I'm gendered correctly at work and I pass to the point that cishets actually talk to me like I'm a cishet guy.

#once again afraid to post bc i feel like im being too mean #but also i have some serious cishet exhaustion and need to complain #i hate them idc #im going out with friends tonight and im tired af but also cant wait to be around fags #i feel like theres this misconception that a lot of young people nowadays are queer because its 'cooler'#but like. i am the way i am obviously. my queerness doesnt make me cool at all #but i find that cishets tend to be a lot less creative and close with people outside of their blood families #which makes perfect sense to me as a tranny who loves his friends more than family idk #so i get a lot of cishet exhaustion. even just cis exhaustion tbh #im not a cool and quirky kind of trans person by any means but sometimes -#- sometimes you just want to hang out with a bunch of transfags #like we can literally just be sitting around on our phones and its great #but cishets? they make ever fucking second a struggle sometimes #cant explain it beyond the feeling that im interacting with people who are entirely -#- fundamentally different from me in almost every way #i feel like its also important for me to say that i often feel isolated in trans circles too lol #like theres this kind of normative/young way of being trans right now and im not it son.#but thats a me problem

Remember when Dick fought Beast Bruce on top of a bridge, and Beast Bruce flung himself at Dick, sending both of them careening into the river below?

Titans: Beast World #2

My brain was so kind to remind me of a similar scene in LOTR when the Warg dragged Aragorn over a cliff and into the river.

youtube

#i was like actually i'd like to see an animated/live action version of beast bruce attacking dick and having that bridge moment #and then i was like hey the aragorn scene is similar enough for me to feel satisfied #but actually this whole bruce and dick scene is rapidly unfolding a story in my mind of dick and bruce getting swept down the river #into a more isolated location #listen i just want more survival type of stories okay? that's where i'm going with this #so dick and breast bruce trying to survive.#and beast bruce is hurt bad enough to where he does need dick's help with food and water and such #which means dick has to ''tame'' bruce enough to not actively attack or kill him #which i know sounds Weird unless you're overly familiar with werewolf type of stories #in which case not weird at all lmao #Bruce Wayne #Dick Grayson #lotr #Youtube

any trans person should get HRT for free (no insurance required) and in exchange they should participate in the occasional study/survey.

research into sex hormones and their effects is so scarce and you have a whole ass population group who's willing to not only switch up their hormones but keep it up for very long periods of time. you could run some incredible long term studies with participants across all sorts of demographics.

while it's impossible to conduct any blind studies on this due to observable change in appearance, there's still so so so much data we're giving up on because we'd rather...

lemme check my notes. that cant be right.

...because we'd rather deny trans people health care and let them die. huh.
