I'm not going back to Gusu with you.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan wangji#wei wuxian#Those last two high effort comics where just a warm up for this masterpiece. My true magnum opus.#I was originally going to do this gag as a 'alternate version of comic 155'#Then I realized that they have the 'Come back to Gusu with me' conversation twice. So here we are!#I did consider having WWX say 'I'm not going back to gusu with you' in the comic for the better plot accuracy.#I'm invoking the rule of silly by having Wei Wuxian read between the lines of 'Come back to Gusu with me'.#Because it does feel like a confession! It is a confession of 'I care about your safety and I worry for what may happen.'#It is also poorly articulated. You can't really blame WWX for reading into it as 'LWJ is just another person trying to control me.'#The relationship between them is not good! It is two parties who genuinely want to be closer with each other but cannot communicate it.#You can't really have what makes these two work so well as a dynamic without the past history of:#“Back then I really wanted to be your friend.” They are a *missed connection*!#WWX reaches out and LWJ rejects him. And now when LWJ reaches out it is WWX who pushes them apart.#It is a tragedy about the consequences of being out of tandem and realizing what you want far too late.#The momentum of WWX's downfall is far to fast to reverse now. It's a 'When' not ''if' question.#Back to your normal style of PD-MDZS next update. Thank you for reading!

Look what my partner found outside in the snow! The broken mother immediately reminded me of this drawing I made in 2022.
She's there but she isn't.
I love this sculpture! It's perfect as it is.
#not art#not really#to clarify#the original piece is about trying to fix your relationship with someone you see twice a year#to find solutions and boundaries so we wouldn't fight anymore because those fights are ugly and entirely preventable#we make peace at the end of my visit#and then the next time that peace is gone again#as if i'd been negotiating with a rock and not who i thought#not surprised after ten+ years#just tired#chrome child

11.03.24 “Happily Ever After” 💔
Chapter 3 of The Damsel has my whole heart!! It’s everything that I wanted!! 😭
#The Pristine Cut#STP The Damsel#Pristine Cut Spoilers#STP Spoilers#Voice of the Smitten#The Long Quiet#Slay the Princess#// gore#fan art#bro when I said that Smitten could get SCARY but this time I MEANT IT#low key one of the most powerful and frightening voices you can have on your side#I’m so glad Damsel got expanded more#like the symbolism of the chain binding her is no longer on her wrist but around her NECK#“a nice cage is still a cage”#With the thing meant to kill her being placed like a harmless trinket when it's literally RIGHT NEXT TO HER HEART#and the themes of being forced into a normative relationship b/c of what's considered “romantic” w/o consideration for the ppl involved

seeing clearer
(sequel to another comic of mine, the calamity.)
--
all my other comics
store
#cw: eye scarring#cw: christianity#as a theme. and not a particularly positive depiction either.#the calamity has anger issues but is earnestly trying her best#the survivor is patient#and also not scared of her at all#the calamity is talking about the story of samson and delilah in pg 2 btw#i tend to only make oneshot short story these days but im fond of this pair#had the urge to draw something a little mundane with these two and the slowest slow burn of a relationship you could ever imagine#also usually a broken mirror would equal 7 years of bad luck but the calamity so outclasses it as far as bad omens go#im pretty sure the effects are just cancelled out#anyway#next comic will be a different story entirely i promise#thank you for your patience#and as always#thank you for reading#comic art#sapphic art#stillindigo art#hearteaters#stillindigo comics

*sigh* thoughts on Nintendo's botw/totk timeline shenanigans and tomfoolery?
tbh. my maybe-unpopular opinion is that the timeline is only important when a game's place on the timeline seriously informs the way their narrative progresses. the problem is that before botw we almost NEVER got games where it didn't matter. it matters for skyward sword because it's the beginning, and it matters for tp/ww/alttp (and their respective sequels) because the choices the hero of time makes explicitly inform the narrative of those games in one way or another. it matters which timeline we're in for those games because these cycles we're seeing are close enough to oot's cycle that they're still feeling the effects of his choices. botw, however, takes place at minimum 10 thousand years after oot, so its place on the timeline actually functionally means nothing. botw is completely divorced from the hero of time & his story, so what he does is a nonissue in the context of botw link and zelda's story. thus, which timeline botw happens in is a nonissue. honestly I kind of liked the idea that it happened in all of them. i think there's a cool idea of inevitability that can be played with there. but the point is that the timeline exists to enhance and fill in the lore of games that need it, and botw/totk don't really need it because the devs finally realized they could make a game without the hero of time in it.
#i really do have a love-hate relationship with this timeline#because it's FASCINATING lore. genuinely. and i think it carries over the themes of certain games REALLY well#but i also think it's indicative of a trend in loz's writing that has REALLY annoyed me for a long time#which is this intense need to cling to oot#and on a certain level i get it. that was your most successful game probably ever. and it was an AMAZING game.#and i think there's definitely some corporate profit maximization tied up in this too--oot was an insane commercial success therefore you'r#not allowed to make new games we need you to just remake oot forever and ever#and that really annoys me because it makes certain games feel disjointed at best and barely-coherent at worst.#i think the best zelda games on the market are the ones where the devs were allowed to really push what they were working with#oot. majora. botw. hell i'd even put minish cap in there#these are games that don't quite follow what was the standard zelda gameplay at their time of release. they were experimental in some way#whether that be with graphics or puzzle mechanics or open-world or the gameplay premise in its entirety. there's something NEW there#and because the devs of those games were given that level of freedom the gameplay really enforces the narrative. everything feels complete#and designed to work together. as opposed to gameplay that feels disjointed or fights against story beats. you know??#so I think that the willingness to allow botw and totk to exist independently from the timeline is good at the very least from a developmen#standpoint because it implies a willingness to. stop making shitty oot remakes and let developers do something interesting.#and yes i do very much fear that the next 20 years of zelda will be shitty BOTW remakes now#in which botw link appears and undergoes the most insane character assassination youve ever seen in your life#but im trying to be optimistic here. if botw/totk can exist outside the timeline then we may no longer be stuck in the remake death loop#and i'm taking eow as a good sign (so far) that we're out of the death loop!! because that game looks NOTHING like botw or oot.#fingers crossed!!#anyway sorry for the game dev rant but tldr timeline good except when it's bad#asks#zelda analysis

the rage I feel when reading Blood of Olympus chapters 45-56 is almost equivalent in magnitude to the absolute joy I experience when reading The Last Olympian chapters 1-23.
remember when percabeth was good? when they meant the world to each other but had other people they cared about (nico, for one. both of them. so much), other worries and other storylines aside from their romantic plot? and when nico's completed arc wasn't repeated for no reason other than to dump more trauma on the youngest character in the series? when background characters were included in the story not for all the unnecessary last minute romantic subplots but because they were fun and fascinating to learn more about? and were actually friends with main characters? remember when grover was percy and annabeth's best friend forever? and antagonists were actually interesting and intimidating and had compelling goals? and the story revolved around friendship and family and loyalty? and death was definite and loss was palpable and battles were thrilling?
yeah. good times.
#rr crit#pjo#hoo#hoo crit#percy jackson#annabeth chase#percabeth#oh how i love them in pjo. how they loved.#grover underwood#<- remember him?#nico di angelo#will solace#dumpster fire of a canon relationship ->#solangelo#anyway!#last olympian will forever be the best book this man wrote#how can you finish one of your series so perfectly then fuck up so bad while ending the next story#cuz goddamn does blood of olympus boil MY blood#ESPECIALLY those last fucking chapters omg#why would you massacre my boys rick#putting nico and will in a room together for the first time just to turn will into a total asshole. great move thanks a lot!#will had so much potential from his previous appearances#you could've left it at that dream message nico had#that was nice!!! actually!!#instead you ruined all of it with a few chapters#justice for tlo-tlh will solace cuz that was one nice background character with potential to become a great main one day#nico deserves THAT will. not this piece of shit he meets#also nico and percy friendship in hoo is... nonexistent???#what is that about#fucking hell richard

Give it up for adam faulkner everybody
He's been saving up money for the last two weeks so he could finally buy a cup of name-brand coffee that actually tastes good. It was supposed to be his lunch

community that has only seen themselves represented in a small handful of romance stories that aren’t explicitly about their real-world oppression, watching a new show or movie where they are represented in a romantic story that isn’t explicitly about their real-world oppression: getting a lot of “that other show with a queer romance that isn’t explicitly about real-world homophobia” vibes from this
#ofmd#our flag means death#good omens#good omens 2#gentlebeard#blackbeard#aziracrow#txt#og#mine#listen i love pattern recognition as much as the next person but please. please.#the similarities between ed/stede and azi/crow are SURFACE LEVEL#the relationship dynamics are VERY DIFFERENT#one is opposite sides of a war and sworn enemies whose lives are dedicated to The Mission who accidentally fall in love#the other one is two incredibly lonely men who have never had a real friend meeting each other later in life and becoming instant besties#they’re not the same!!! AND THIS IS A GOOD THING!!!!!!!!!!#like do y’all really want all your queer romances to be the same goddamn dynamic over and over again?????#that’s stupid! you should want your diverse romances to be DIVERSE!!!!#go/ofmd both have fancy silly blond man paired with a goth who wears dark clothes#and they both had. very tragic end-of-season cliffhangers due to the blond man’s internalized emotional hangups#but stede/azi are very different characters. and it’s ed/crowley are also very different characters#and their romances! are very different from each other!!!!!#i GET why the comparisons are being made but man they’re getting annoying lol

PAC Tarot Reading: Who's Coming Toward You 💘
study the images. which one are you drawn to most?
[left to right]
etsy.com/shop/brutalfantasy - for personal readings 🤍
etsy.com/shop/brutalfantasy - for personal readings 🤍
PILE ONE: four of wands
a past life romantic relationship is coming toward you. this person is going to marry you. i see you both have cleared karma with other people so when you two meet, the relationship will not be full of ups and downs. you will simply be friends and love one another. you will both be giving each other the love you've given to others but haven't received. i see them telling you they're in love with you by the sea. seagulls flying around. you have wavy beach hair and he kisses you, loves the taste of salt on your lips. as you two fall in love, flowers will begin to bloom from the earth, growing with you both 💘
PILE TWO: the fool
the lover coming toward you is someone entirely new. this relationship is a bit awkward because the feelings are going to be so strong. i see lots of giggles and smiles and being a bit clumsy with each other. noses bumping during kisses. sweaty palms while holding hands. you're both new to love. even though things are a little messy, neither of you is judging the other. it just makes you both giggle more. i see your person has sad eyes. it makes you want to love them in the kind of way you tuck them into your body and soothe their soul. you're both definitely going to feel like you've been hit by cupid. it's the kind of love that makes you feel like you're floating into the sky. you're on the moon together. plucking stars and putting them in each other's hair. you got one foot on the earth and the other dipping into the infinite constellations. taking trips to all the planets and filling them with your love 💘

history will say they were very good friends
#its just so funny when they try to define the non-business side of their relationship#tom does his 'a girl could start to wonder' line and gregs like ok so that means he likes me as a friend i guess?#while toms like since we're friends i'll be sleeping in your bed tonight :)#also greg not knowing if they're even friends here and then claiming tom is his best friend in the very next episode is soooo#succession#tomgreg#tom wambsgans#greg hirsch#my gifs

admittedly one of my favorite things about house ( that also drives me up a wall ) is that something Really Big happens and then the next episode they like loosely mention it like wow wasn’t it crazy that that happened . anyway haha
#once again i’ve just finished s2 so don’t tell me about any plotlines i do not know ab ‼️‼️#like okay i UNDERSTAND that so many things happen in episodes to keep you engaged but like#i want it to linger .#i want sore relationships that don’t fit i want i love you but i’ve looked into your eyes as you crumbled so i keep you at arms length#because i don’t know if i can be there to hold your hand the next time i don’t know if i can do that again#i want i love you but i can’t live without this piece of my heart anymore and you proved it#i want characters to look at each other both thinking of The Thing They Can’t Say#because of the thing that happened .#anyways this is about foreman almost dying this is about house getting shot this is about wilson sleeping with his patient#this is about chase’s dad dying this is about chase letting his patient die this is about cameron’s husband#this is about house’s parents this is about wilson giving up his job to defend house this is about stacy this is about#they have so much good ANGST that has the potential to make their relationships unhealthily dependent#and i .#i need to eat it up#house#house md#gregory house#greg house#hilson#houseposting#lgbtq#lgbt

remember how in dao there were always like multiple flirty options u could just spring on ur love interest and it wasn't something that was brushed past it would stop a conversation dead in its tracks to have a cute secondary flirty offshoot with small variations dependent on the flirty option u initially chose with a unique course correction to get back on topic after...... yeah.
#sorry i'm about to be a hater#romance in datv is like. a vaguely flirty line met by an even vaguer response that has no impact on the conversation#in the beginning at least#only once your relationship is like 6 or 7 does it get a little more receptive#and the whole time it's like okay i completed a main quest. time to talk to the love interest. okay i did another main quest. time to talk#to the love interest. BC YOU CAN'T TALK TO THEM OUTSIDE OF DESIGNATED CUTSCENES. U CAN'T HAVE RANDOM CONVERSATIONS#A LA HAVE YOU EVER LICKED A LAMPPOST IN WINTER!!! THAT IS SO LAME!!!!!!!! SO COOKIE CUT!!!!!!!!!#there's so few references to your relationship at all really. the romance cutscenes could be removed and u would never know they're in love#the romance doesn't exist outside of designated cutscenes. you can't choose to randomly flirt you must wait for The Cutscenes because#there's only one way to romance everybody. even dai was better with this imo even though the formula is similar#partly bc u can get to know everyone outside of exclusive cutscenes?? you can just approach them at anytime and get to know them?? and find#a chance to flirt?? and there's teeny tiny special romance-specific moments carved out. like the dance after halamshiral for example#and again people TALK about your romance. it's present in the narrative#bioware is so known for their romances but they dropped the ball hard here and i'm sooooooooo disappointed#and actually?? companions barely ever interject during main quests too?? or quests at all?? just as a side note#companions should be voicing their OPINIONSSSSS when i make choices????#davrin should have had so much to say during weisshaupt cutscenes. like what the fuck was that#and why wasn't there a one-on-one conversation discussing his mortality with him beforehand?? would have liked to see that??#relationship growth in this game is purely waiting for the next milestone and it feels so stale and lackluster and upsetting and ugh#the fact that giving your companions gifts strictly results in approval gain and one measly thank you is indicative of everything wrong#anyways.txt#jasmine plays datv#da4 spoilers

wren 🪶 ・ entertainer ・ bard/fae warlock ・ absolutely mid at everything 👍
his lore is linked to yves (he’s her dream guardian!!!)
#mine.#dnd oc#oc: wren.#actually I really love his costume LOL it’s supposed to be handmade that’s why he has that trim on everything#and he ran out of fabric to make his other legging so he just made it like a sexy stocking situation#and mismatched boots!!!!!! he’s missing the other pair#in terms of personality he’s like book howl + ouran tamaki but more cowardly and pathetic and he runs away when there’s conflict#and he’s constantly plagued with guilt 👍 especially over yves 👍#also he’s a hoe in theory but not in practice as in someone flirts with him and hits him with the haha and then what he actually doesn’tm#know what to do next he’s like 🧍#also MUCH to say abt his relationship with his patron but for now part of his pact is that he’s required to carry that branch ^ around#and it’s like this thorny branch with yew tree leaves….the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn real!!#I like this format tho I want to do this w my other gworls

goddd the trope of “we could always rely on each other and you were the person i trusted most in the world but then you chose someone else over me and our relationship has never been the same” always hits me so hard, but ESPECIALLY when there are queer undertones to relationship one but then heteronormativity wins out. like god it’s such a sucker punch. so many queer people have experienced that really close same sex relationship where you thought you were going to be with that person together, even if you didn’t even realize it was romantic at the time, but then they became interested in the opposite sex and everything changed.
#this is NOT an attack on bisexuality btw#bi people in m/f relationships are valid and please bring your straight bfs to pride and educate them#this goes for straight gfs as well but well. the debate wasn’t about them#anyway i hope my fifth grade best friend is doing well in her sorority#we were supposed to get married to a pair of best friends and buy houses next to each other and raise our kids as bffs#sometimes things don’t go according to plan#the two ships that inspired this post are insane actually dw about it#colindeli#shory#dimension 20#d20#the ravening war#colin provolone#thane delissandro katzon#deli katzon#come on provolone#cory matthews#shawn hunter#boy meets world#bmw#gmw#girl meets world#rilaya#also works#riley matthews#maya hart#writing#queer#gay#lesbian

skk started calling each other babygirl as a joke… turns out somewhere along the way it stopped being a joke and became an endearment that follows their insults
#this interaction prompted kunikida to make a work place etiquette powerpoint presentation#aka the presentation where he tells Dazai that exploring your sexuality is healthy but why does it have to be with a mafia executive#(-> still haven’t drawn the sequel to my other comic… oh well)#skk aren’t together btw they just are like this and continue to pine for the next 2 years while they’re basically already in a relationship#like they are exclusive behave like a couple still wear the rings from that one mission where they had to get married#soukoku#bsd fanart#bungou stray dogs#bungo stray dogs#osamu dazai#bsd osamu dazai#bsd dazai#chuuya nakahara#bsd chuuya#bsd chuuya nakahara#my art#also some sskk as a treat#a few weeks later atsushi calls akutagawa babygirl just to try it out but almost looses a leg again
