#will this be polarizing idk

[animalcrossingshowdown]

seeing the results of this is so cool, I'm especially excited to see who the most polarizing characters were, it's so interesting how divisive some characters can be! thanks for all your work on this!

most polarizing characters were Tabby and Diva. they were the only two where both like and dislike scored higher than neutral

Tabby: favourite 10% like 29.2% neutral 22.9% dislike 27.1% hate 10.8%

Diva: favourite 6.2% like 30.5% neutral 24.5% dislike 28.7% hate 10.2%

Can't stay on MW twt for long because I really dislike how most view Jimmy as a mean bitch who hates Curly's guts.... Was it only me who saw Jim relating to Curly's struggles as a captain, fall down to his knees and cry before him in one of his delusion (showing vulnerability and remorse), and as an act of ultimate sacrifice fulfil Curly's wish (which could be correct guess on Jimmy's side if you think about it — they were friends after all) while accepting the punishment Jimmy thinks he deserves which is death? When Jimmy was making up his mind, he admitted that Curly was a better person as well as referred to him by his captain title (in Jimmy's mind they carry lots of weight). He literally put his hand on the glass and reassured Curly, and you still depict Jimmy as a hateful bastard who felt nothing but jealousy and hatred towards Curly.

This is one of the most tragic romance stories you can make: unwavering trust with betrayal and return and elusive redemption, or idolization/belief of a living flawed person and subsequent disillusionment, or falling victims to the oppressive system while only realising what really mattered only when the point of no return has been crossed, or just two morally ambiguous people becoming few shades darker and relapsing to their worst selves and making others around suffer because of it while covering up for eachother's sake. But noooo Jimmy is a meanie who likes to switch around and either give dick or have it in his ass. I can't with you people --

For all the talk about Arcane and the (rightful) vitriol I see towards generative AI I see on my dash I’m kinda surprised that I haven’t seen any discussion of the fact that Viktor invented magical AI with the Hexcore, Hextech that learns is just another way of saying machine learning (the other name for AI, eh, it’s more nuanced than that but you get it) and Viktor’s plotline basically turns into a standard “scientist consumed by his own AI” plot after that

I've been musing over a few thoughts inspired by this ask about a mafia-ish style of Apex Polarity without it being too close to Pearl Eye, and after watching a few videos of Orcas hunting their prey (which included dolphins), landed on a sort of Mafia inspired Apex Polarity AU

Also not to add another Y/N to Orclipse's growing collection but this Y/N is a white-beaked dolphin. Look! They're so beautiful!

Sirens are cunning, brutal, and take everything with teeth and claws. The strongest kill and maim at a whim. As a siren who's not particularly strong, though incredibly agile, with a tail streamlined and dark gray with white patches, fins curved and mostly black, you're somewhere at the bottom. You're doing your best to survive and avoid trouble. You pick your battles and you pick your escapes, and most importantly, you stay alive.

But then you do something really stupid: you venture where you shouldn't have.

You don't usually swim so far up north but you're hungry, and the thought of a few tasty squids distracts you from the silent waters and vast, blue emptiness. You realize a bit too late that you're not the only one hunting.

You catch the first orca siren in the distance as a dark figure, and then another. Two who immediately cut through the water, charging straight for you like shadows. Though you turn tail and bolt, you quickly spot them in the corner of your vision. They easily keep pace, their size and strength overwhelming as they flank you on both sides, wide grins flashing their deadly teeth. You can hardly look at the mismatched color of their eyes as you dodge and weave, diving down only to be cut off by one with midnight blue colors at the tip of his flukes, and shooting off to the left just to almost be snatched by the black-bone claws of a siren with bright yellow fins framing his head.

They're toying with you. You know that for a fact in how they just barely keep back, corraling you onwards, draining your already spent energy, and picking at your panicking pulse. You have no choice but to avoid the edges of their jaws and the tips of their talons, and swim in the direction they want.

You near a field of ice floes floating on the water, and though you cut into the jagged structures dipping into the sea, the orca sirens never lose you. A desperate need for air pushes you onward. One small drop of hope still burns in your chest. Despite the aching of your muscles, you steal a gulp of oxygen and dip back down once more, charging away—

Only to run smack into a third orca siren.

This one grabs you, his burning red and orange colors filling your vision. The other two orcas join to help their kin keep you in place long enough for you to truly regret ever venturing here. Between the three of what you can only assume are brothers, hands hooked over you shoulders, claws clutching your wrists, and palms pressing into your hips, you're a fish caught in a net.

You brace for a voilent end. It never arrives. Instead of digging into your sweet meat, the sirens offer you a deal. The tips of sharp fingertips trace your jawline and the soft inside of your arms and down your slick tail while they explain.

You keep watch for human ships and report back when they're getting close, and in exchange, you get the best food you can imagine, the entire Arctic Ocean to swim, and anything else you'd like. The best benefit? You're under their protection. Of course, they expect utter loyalty from you. You are no one else's. Failure to devote yourself to this work and the brothers would mean a grisly fate, but hey, you're nothing if not eager to not be torn apart. So you agree.

You have a few questions about this whole arrangement, struggling to understand why they, powerful orca sirens, bother with a smaller fish like you when they could rip you limb from limb and be done. What's with the human ships? Why task you to this? Are you just fodder so they can keep their fins nice and unscabbed? They reassure you that they'll explain in due time (the sunny one booping your nose, much to your chagrin), but for now, all you know to know is that the human ships are a problem, and you are their solution for it. You've never really encountered humans before, but they've never really encountered sirens, or so you thought.

The burning red one lets you go, but you don't slip away too far before he tugs on your flukes and tells you to follow him. It's not a request. The darker blue one leaves for a moment, jetting away as the other two guide you to a nice resting place on an icy shore. They introduce themselves, and then their brother reappears with a squid in hand, half dead, and an insistence that you eat—they could tell during the chase that you didn't have all your energy.

And that's how you unwittingly join a very powerful pod of orca brothers who may or may not be teasing and taunting you simultaneously.

2 Art pieces in one day?? That’s crazy

What’s crazier is that I’m definitely gonna go straight back into artblock for the next 2-3 business months (but is okay! It isss what it isss)

HOWEVER COMMA,

Here’s my selkie bbg for @naffeclipse ‘s Apex Polarity AU

FUN FACT: this is the first time I’ve sat down and actually drawn the DCA in any form!

Very swag if I do say so myself, though I’m sure I’ll get better if I commit to drawing them more

In my head the bracelet she gave him is labradorite, and the hair beads he gave her are carnelian (inspired by the huichol hair ties I had as a kid), it felt fitting! Plus the meanings of the stone lowkey work for what I’m thinking of
