i'll toss this semi-famous sportsball guy at him

Get Judged by the Game Show Host

I've been Kazuko-brained so i wanna do some judgements for himmmm. He sucks but he's actually pretty friendly most of the time, so you can toss pretty much anyone at him. Definitely let me know if your character is famous in some way though, he loves to schmooze

As always, 18+ muns and muses only, one troll per reblog, but multiple reblogs allowed, and judgebacks are definitely appreciated, but never required! Thank you!

ever since i left the city YOU! (powerful shock wave emanates from me and shatters all nearby windows)

[vamp-st-trolls]

arriving to the party (very much fashionably late) are rachel davis, tremere of house goratrix, and her mawla lionel of clan malkavian

i very much enjoyed designing the outfits and drawing this for @tzimizce's "charred saints" event! was worried i won't be able to finish this piece in time for the grand ball, but it worked out

bonus: both of them separately! i wanted to draw them together from the get-go since they are a set and lionel is very clingy but i also wanted to create solid costumes for them both so it took some magic to then sew the two together seamlessly... a certain kind of meat-magic if you may :D

You hate classic lit because:

Your were forced to read it in high school, and no one likes to be forced to do anything in school

Your teacher failed to explain that important things aren't always objectively enjoyable

Your class was focused on picking the book apart at the expense of appreciating the story or, more importantly, the context of the book and why you should care

You think that the book has to be relevant and nonthreatening to you to be worth reading

I had an English teacher in high school tell me word for word that Charles Dickens was the filet mignon of literature, and that my class clearly only liked hot dogs. I had another teacher ask me what I thought the meaning of a poem was and then told me that my interpretation was objectively wrong.

But I've also seen other teachers explaining what made a book a classic, why people at the time loved it, what new ideas or writing styles it pioneered, or what historical events it inspired. And I've read, throughout my life, plenty of classics without the constraints of an educational setting, and thoroughly enjoyed them. Hell, I've taken Les Miserables to the beach.

There have also been books that I have read and not enjoyed! Sometimes they had themes that I hated, but as a historian I can put those themes in context and still learn from the work as a whole. Sometimes I just didn't like the story, but I can accept that my ideal plotline doesn't always mesh with that of an average person in 1788. I also know when books feel disjointed because they were originally serialized, or paid by the word, or written in a dialect and culture not my own. And now I'm an adult, and I can choose to finish them or put them down.

The point is I encourage you to revisit books you once had to read and hated, or books you never had to read but have avoided because they fall in the same category. As an adult you get to make your own choices and form your own opinions, and that freedom allows you to dive as deeply or shallowly into literature as you want. You may never like War and Peace, but you might also find that you enjoy more than you thought you would.

everything on alternia is so fatalisticcccc like you can't execute computer code without someone dying... you can't have a boyfriend unless you believe he's your fate you can't have a nemesis unless you're willing to die with them. you can't even message your friends without the temptation to check ahead on their timeline and see what's going to happen to them

Tikani Judgement Meme

Got some new sprites of my girl from the ever fun and lovely @clown-fuckers-r-us (thank you once again Bun!! <3)

Reblog with a Troll and Tikani will give her thoughts on them. She can be a lil blunt and distant but she's not too mean! She's an old woman who is a survivor of the Limeblood genocide, a shifter and rainbow drinker hybrid, and the Ancestor to Keonin.

One Troll at a time, but as many reblogs as you'd like!
