Wuthering Waves has taken over all of my free time recently, so here's a sketch of Scar!Ren I originally shared in da 14DWY Discord!!

#14 days with you #to be tagged later #Sometimes a team is just Sephiroth; some random flower girl; and a dragoon from FFXIV #Like....... Look me in my eyes and tell me that one of Jiyan's abilities isn't just stardiver /silly #Anyways!! Sharing dis on my main only because it's just a sketch and doesn't feel ''official'' enough for da 14DWY blog #If I come back to this piece + retouch/put more effort into it maybe I'll reupload it there instead #But ya!! Any inconsistencies in Scar's outfit is because I was too busy staring at Taoqi <3 #There was also absolutely no rhyme or reason as to why I drew Ren as Scar specifically too— #—Other than the fact that he WOULD rock da onigiri strip (RIP T_T) /ij /silly #Plus I was going to draw [REDACTED] as (WUWA SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!!!) Geshu but?? Babes I don't think the timeline works out?? #I really saw the marks in the same spot and was like “oh!! they're the same person :3” LIKE GIRL NO?? This is what happens when you skip cs #Geshu is still my number 1 next to Taoqi though (in terms of design) <3 I have a type teehee #Mayhaps I will draw [REDACTED] after all...... (It's currently 3pm and I'm nowhere near my tablet) #Also also!! A treat for those who've read this far: Day 3.5 will be made public very soon!! It's pride month n I wanna celebrate— #—With everyone's fave demi/pansexual enby (who sometimes does a bit of stalking) (as a treat) (he's a yandere) #Violet's birthday is also June 10!! Early birthday gift!! Yippeee!! #Ok I'll shuddup now <3

Bregan D'aerthe Still on a mad BG3 kick… so here I am doing more FR stuff in my spare time! Redid an old Bregan D'aerthe piece from 2010. Tried for a "Randomly stumble upon a hidden area in the Undercity Ruins only to be greeted in the dark by an unusual collection of brigands led by an even more unusual drow" type scene, because lord knows I desperately wanted that to happen.

Modelled Jarlaxle's face after Richard O'Brien (because if you're as old as I am and you've seen him on The Crystal Maze… you'll know why I can't imagine anyone else as Jarlaxle).

#my art #forgotten realms #bregan d'aerthe #squeezed in as much members as i could remember who weren't currently dead #valas hune is the one with the bow #angsty drow wizard is up on the balcony if only because after rai-guy i can't seem to remember any other wizards in their little club #and lord knows any good party needs its spellcaster #also i had fun dressing jarlaxle up like a pirate

Forgot to post this here! Her KH1 design is my favorite

#kingdom hearts #kh #kh kairi #fanart #my art #my brain is currently disintegrating so i'm a bit all over the place w the social medias. and in general #also this one annoys me because it is either hellishly bright or depressingly dull depending on the screen i see it on #but it never looks like it does in csp. yknow. the way i drew and intended it to look #this is the only drawing of mine to ever do that. i am vexed and disturbed. what is its true form i'm so mad

Colin Morgan in season 1 of Humans I want you.

(Timelapse below)

#and season 3 <3 #remember when I said 5 hours ago that I hoped to put out more Colin art soonish #well… it was sooner than I thought I guess !! #in my defence I only drew the top one just now ! #the other two were in the drafts for a while… #I’m watching the living and the dead currently and MY GOD #Mr Nathan FARKS !! #he’s so sexy #ehem anyway ! #I’m also listening to Colin narrate Terry Pratchett’s wizard series and I could not understand Colin in the beginning !! #not because he’s Irish but also because he’s Irish… I was listening so intently to his lovely accent that I didn’t hear a word he said /: #(it was easier to focus on after he put on silly voices for the different characters <3) #alright ! I’m done updating you on my Colin ongoings!! enjoy the art (: #Colin Morgan #Colin Morgan Fanart #Leo Elster #Humans 2015 #digital art #kr_yoongi

Hi guys, sorry for the hiatus. Been going thru some changes in life so I was trying to adjust to that >.< So please have Steph and Cass as pokemon trainers as compensations!! I had so much fun doing this in Pokemon's artstyle, such a fun and distinctive style to do.

Who do you guys wanna see next?

#my art #fanart #dc comics #dc fanart #art #stephanie brown #cassandra cain #pokemon trainer #pkm trainer!steph strikes me as one of the cycling folks in Emerald/Sapphire/Ruby soooo #and definitely not because emerald/sapphire/ruby were the only versions I got to play as a kid :( #DS was all the rave back then but hey it is still expensive ok? and current pokemon games dont hold the same sentimental values to me :( #Cass would fit as a goth though #Goth cat girlfriend Dumb puppy jock girlfriend #hgnn im not changing my mind #seriously though #this was really fun to do

yes i'm rooting for m*leven breakup because byler is neat but mostly? i'm rooting for m*leven breakup for the sake of el and mike.

to me, their romance was always a puppy love born out of a combination of social pressures, naïve curiosity, and a lack of true understanding regarding intimacy and romantic love and what it really is. it was real in that they do truly, deeply care about each other and they are close friends, maybe even shared an attraction, but a maturing romance is so much more than that. they've grown up and out of being boyfriend/girlfriend, and that's okay! i think television/film needs to show more often that most of us don't have definite "soulmates" or first childhood loves that we spend our whole lives with. it doesn't mean these relationships meant nothing and didn't impact us, it just means they've run their course and that something else is in the cards, and this is part of life!

i've always felt el was at her best and most confident self when broken up with mike, discovering who she was and what she liked alongside another girl her age instead of just relying on mike for mentorship on how to live in the real world. she deserves more of an opportunity to find herself, her autonomy, and her independence, and to love who she is, and she's made it clear she's felt insecure in the relationship with mike because she isn't being loved and understood the way she wants, needs, and deserves from someone who is her partner.

also, it's okay if mike doesn't love her in "the way he should". he is not obligated to love her romantically and stay in a relationship with her just because she's a girl, because she "needed someone", or because he cares about her a lot. he shouldn't be pressured into a romance if it's not truly coming from his heart. he deserves freedom to find out and honour who he is, too, instead of just staying in his non-functional first relationship — one he got into as a child, essentially — and defining himself that way because it's what's expected when a boy and a girl are close. he loves her in some way, yes, but it's okay if he doesn't feel comfortable or secure being her boyfriend anymore, for whatever reason that is. he's felt insecure too, and that's valid and it matters.

they are their own people and are steadily growing and changing every day. they need time to figure out who those people are, and it's become clear (at least in my opinion) that those people aren't meant to be a couple at this stage.

they deserve freedom. they deserve to grow up and be authentic to themselves and not feel like they need to lie for the sake of a relationship. they deserve to move on from this version of their relationship that isn't making them happy and rekindle the best part of their bond: their strong, beautiful friendship. they don't have to be a couple if it doesn't make them stronger and better and happier people.

i think it would be healthy and wonderful for a show, especially one consumed frequently by young adults, to show a relationship starting, progressing, and ending on good terms in this way. sometimes things don't work out, and that is okay.

#eve text #elmike #stranger things #byler #only tagging byler because i feel like yall will like this take lol #tagging tagging tagging WHAT ARE EVERYONE ELSE'S THOUGHTS #god i can't believe i'm making a post about stranger things. this feels like poking a bear #i'm not particularly anti m*leven but like... they'd have to do something pretty special at this point for me to feel like it's viable #i'm seeing the bts of s5 and it's got me Having Thoughts #elmike friendship is something i am so passionate about #even before i ever liked byler (didn't ship at all until s4 even though i knew it was a thing before) i've felt this way about elmike #i always believed they were close friends at heart and needed to break up #the romance part of them felt very distinctly young and very much “he was a boy she was a girl” to me #and it hasn't deepened into anything more mature and i don't see how it could based on the current state of the writing... #the fact that lumax exists — a young relationship that is actively maturing and is healthy — makes that clear to me #and the “love confession” in s4 and how disingenuous and miserable it felt was just the nail in the coffin #also the fact that will (who is IN LOVE with mike) was instrumental in making it happen? ... uh... okay... interesting choice… #fucked up and reductive if they make it another queer unrequited love sacrifice for the sake of pushing the heterosexual agenda YUCK #so i really hope the speculation about a m*leven breakup is real!! i think it just makes sense for their characters but who knows #i don't believe in the notion of love at first sight or one true love and i think the writers don't too??? #love to me is an accumulation of experiences and we inevitably choose it at some point rather than fall into it... but idk #tv is so fixated on keeping couples together... sometimes it's just not reality guys especially with young people... LET IT GO... #like i said though i'm not 100% sold that they're going to give up their “golden couple” LMAO #stranger things hasn't historically subverted too many tropes if i'm being honest #anyway i seriously need this season to come out quickly... i'm so bored and getting my master's is crushing my soul #i need frivolity #ALSO btw i won't respond to hateful messages about this so please don't bother. it's not that serious. this is a netflix show

Why did you start watching the qsmp and why did you stay?

#In my case I think it's kind of funny because I had never been so committed to a Minecraft server #I watched a little bit of Tortillaland and some other bits of Karmaland #I liked Quackity and most of my time on Twitch I spent watching elmariana [It was the only thing I watched on Twitch] #I liked Roier but I didn't really watch him much [I don't know why] and I loved Missa's Youtube videos but I actually started watching #qsmp because of Jaiden #when I saw that she was part of the server I thought “wait #Jaiden? Jaiden animations? one of my favorite content creators is part of a #Minecraft server? I will definitely be watching“ #Jaiden was my main pov for much of the qsmp but it's a little funny that she doesn't appear in my Twitch recap because most of the time #I watched her live was on YouTube #and first place on my recap is Roier #my current main pov and whom I became very fond of throughout my time watching the qsmp #qsmp

do you like tuataras ..

Yeah they're okay I guess

#herpetology #Sphenodon #Sphenodon punctata #natural history museum #CuratorCore #pictures of my face #that thing on the front of my skull #selfie #animals #tuatara #Rhynchocephalia #I currently have perhaps the only stuffed tuatara in Denmark residing in my office #because it is damaged and I had to confiscated it from a teaching collection #this thing is absolutely precious and should not be handled all the time #we are trying to get it fixed now #I know that this guy who is an intern at a coffee company made a whole thing about tuatara in a book he wrote #but I haven't managed to read it yet #so I do not understand nerdfighteria's relationship with tuatara at all #but I know that there is one #and that's beautiful #I am the worst nerdfighter #anyway #tuatara are very cool #but the whole third eye thing REALLY irks me #like #have you SEEN Chalarodon madagascariensis? #Tuatara's third eye ain't shit

Welcome Home sketch dump

I made some adjustments to the way I'm drawing them, and now I actually like it! Admittedly, I did not like it before. But now I do! Hazzah!

This was my first time drawing Poppy, and my first time drawing Frank properly

(Wow! I'd also never drawn Eddie before! Now I have done that!)

They make him think of Frank

Here's the full page lol

#innisart #welcome home #welcome home fanart #welcome home arg #wally darling #frank frankly #poppy partridge #sally starlet #eddie dear #barnaby b beagle #and yes that it a self portrait in the corner #Now the only one I haven't drawn is Howdy! #That is actually a lie. I have drawn him. #Just on my CURRENT sketch page so it ain't ready for posting yet #I don't think I have ever had this many tags on a post #it's all their names lol #so many names #You may notice there is one sketch in the page that doesn't have a cropped ver #that's because it's a scene from a wee fic I wrote! #So gonna rb the fic link with it instead :) #Hugs for Eddie

cult jokes are a symptom of and contribute to the simultaneous sensationalizing of cults (cults are all dark cloaks and animal sacrifices and devil worship and group suicide and despicable/unhinged beliefs) and diminishing of cults ("uwu come join my CULT XD we're gonna make cookies and WORSHIP SATAN teehee"), but i'm realizing how they go so hand-in-hand with the mindset of "only ~stupid/evil/crazy/etc.~ people could possibly join a cult. if it were me i would simply not fall for cult propaganda."

the diminishing part means that people don't take you seriously if you say you're an ex cult member or talk about your experiences in a cult or believe you are a current victim of a cult, because cults are just silly little groups that have weird beliefs but are otherwise innocuous. the sensationalizing part means people will also not take you seriously because if it was Actually a cult cult, that does harm and has evil beliefs, you should've known better because any reasonable person would have seen through it. the other side of "only an [xyz] person joins a cult" is "i am not an [xyz] person so i will never join a cult or be victim to propaganda and other cult tactics." the other side of "if it were me i would simply not fall for propaganda" is "someone falling for propaganda is fully a choice and a personal failing on their part." and combined they make: if you were [xyz] enough to join a cult and fall for propaganda, that means you deserved it.

people who would never make jokes about any other kind of abuse but feel perfectly fine making cult jokes used to kind of baffle me, because why is joking about personal abuse a problem but large-scale/group abuse is fine? why is it suddenly funny when you're the one that wants to perpetuate the abuse? but if your belief around cults is: "your experience wasn't that bad [diminishing], and if it was that bad [sensationalizing] it was your own fault and personal failing [i would simply not fall for propaganda], which means you deserved what you went through [only stupid/evil/crazy/etc people join cults]" and you don't understand how cults or cult tactics work, cult survivors/victims probably feel like a fair target for jokes (they are not, to be clear).

#i've been trying to write this post for days lmfao it's been stuck in my head #this is the best i've got #ex cult #ex christian #religious trauma #child indoctrination #i am normally a “language changes and evolves” girly (non-binary) but i have to insist on not contributing to this particular one #it not only harms cult victims/survivors (which is reason enough not to do so imo) #it is beneficial to cults and cult leaders that people in general do not take cults seriously #because they can both 1. abuse their current members without consequences #and 2. recruit more people that won't even realize they've been recruited #cults feed on vulnerable people #and believing you are too smart or sane or morally good or whatever else to get sucked into it #ironically makes you more vulnerable #because if you got sucked into it... it obviously can't be a cult

the king shunned, the lion dead, the knight lost, the princess absent. but the wizard lives.

#pokemon #swsh #champion league #cw: gore #hi! this one is also about being trans btw. but mostly it's abt stories #I think I was drawing this one like ''leon should get to have fun a little'' and it turned into. this #well. there are many things already! like I've been rotating the lion dance costume head as trophy thing in my brain since #that one doodle I did with that lion head #the original idea for this has the wreaths more prominent and also pizelated #and. it tried to incorporate something that needs much more delicate handling #than I'm currently capable of. so I shelved it for this instead #I think this piece is just like. fully linking the king-knight-beast-princess-wizard figures altogether for leon #u know what I think abt all that! u kno whats up #but also just a tiny bit. this was drawn with that whole once-a-month disk horse abt sexing skeleton remains #about which my only real thought is ''I gotta be buried in a solid metal salmon suit then'' #well. if I were to be buried at all. I'm good to be thrown out for a natural meal as well of course #(technically) first piece after job babey!! #in the end the tiger wanted to be drawn first but this was started way beforehand #I think because I wanted something more ink-heavy. since my job art was almost entirely painted #to anyone who may come into my inbox or comment to ask why the bones shine: its cause theyre wet. congrats #have a good night lads! it's nice and cool to be gross sometimes

So EA/Bioware were retweeting all the negative comments towards Larian,huh

Can't say I'm not surprised by that. A lot of the ones doing so are pretty big names that could definitely improve their games and yet they wanna complain as if fans are expecting 'too much' from them. Like we should just accept getting half baked games all the time...really showing their arses, aren't they.😅

I think what these devs don't comprehend and why they are panicking is because they think everyone wants them to do all the same things when x game becomes popular. And they know they will fail because it happens Every Single Time.

You can't copy paste someone's work and think that it will be revolutionary. It's the same thing that happened when skyrim had huge open world then they all did that. But they do this to themselves!!! They want constant big successes without creativity. Now they whine in advance saying they can't do this. Good. Nobody wants the same game but worse released 500 times.

It reveals their way of thinking, they do the "copy homework" thing because they think it's expected of them. This is what they mean by the "new standard". Their brains immediately leapt to "we now need to replicate everything about the style and scope of this game."

NO. That is not the standard. If only they embraced their own style and leaned into their own strengths and listened to feedback.

Bioware's stupidity in particular is truly incredible. because they achieved this at one point, they were a success story with Baldur's Gate. Then they went on to make games that people still consider some of the greatest rpgs of all time, they "set the standard". But then they refused to listen.

Because every company tries to appeal to the masses, they try to entice the playerbase of different games. But actually they just lose their own players. Oh by the way, dear tumblr staff... does this remind you of someone?

#video games #messages #oddlyotherscience #Not to mention that the new players they want to draw in by copying another game to entice that other playerbase... #Well often those people are already fans of their games as well... and one person can like a thing in one game while #not like the same thing in the other game because people understand and notice that different things work for diff stories #So wishing for greater popularity only screws the company over... they lose the very people that they wanted to bring in #my post #my posts #my thoughts #bioware #electronic arts #twitter #tumblr #larian studios #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #bg3 mine #tumblr update #current events

I’m so happy with this gradient it’s soooooo smooth. This shawl is a real challenge to knit both because of the structure of this yarn and the actual pattern itself is written in a way that’s really frustrating, but at least it’s beautiful enough to only be slightly extremely annoying.

#knitting #knitblr #lace rot #wip #lace shawl #project: shawl 10 #i'm officially into the Slog Zone. every row takes between 15 and 30 minutes and they're only going to get longer from here. #When this chart ends it'll be 580 ish stitches per row and i'm NOT excited for it <3 #I also had to rechart both the current chart and the last chart in stitchfiddle just to make them like. visible. #like i had to print them out across two different pieces of paper make them visible the last chart is just shy of 100 stitches wide #thankfully this one is really to understand once i got in the groove i didn't even have to look at the chart #but because of how the chart is like. laid out? it's really hard to understand from just looking at the page i had to knit it. #also sorry for the scrunkly photo but this boy is already too big for my 50 inch needles. He's going to be scrunched until i cast off lmao.
