that melting expression spoke of troubled analysis of surroundings, it appears on my face every day too. (translation: ayo, my eyesight is also goofy!!!)

doodle page with exploration of the theme for this comic below 👇🏼

literally drew that face and was like "huh, i will implement this idea into the very core of my being. no one can stop me " or something like that- xD

#the definition of ''made random observation outta nowhere one day and then proceeded to squelch the heck outta it for the next 3 days''👍🏼 #usually i make it on the fly or after a long day of pondering inside the brain but here i decided to doodle it out on my phone for once #and thats why im including it here because i want the future me to open this and be like wow stump history has been made here #truly the day we will remember forever.... o7 lolol #this was fun btw :D #hylics #wayne hylics #dedusmuln #i wrote their names in the image descriptions so much ough its sorta annoying to write ''dedusmuln'' while also pronoucing it in my head LOL #('dedus- d- dedusmuln.' while zooming in on their battle icon like in vinny's hylics video) #artstump

following on from this. not to always bring marc into everything (sorry marc) but if assen 2015 had happened against jorge, valentino would have very likely pulled something similar again imo. rather than what he actually did, which is approach marc almost immediately for a nice normal friendly handshake and backing off during the podium celebrations. should be noted that during laguna seca '08, valentino was very much committed to yapping at casey on the podium with the world's biggest smuggest grin on his face

partly that disparity is because jorge not marc was the direct title rival, partly it's because valentino was treating marc with kid gloves right until the second that he wasn't, which marc was seemingly entirely oblivious to. if anyone other than marc had said what he said in that presser, had then continued on with similar rhetoric during sachsenring, valentino would quite likely have gone nuclear. he's done it over less than that. his fondness for marc made him continue to exhibit uncharacteristic restraint... except that fondness unfortunately is what left valentino feeling so very betrayed when (to his eyes) marc could not leave well enough alone

#it's so delightfully tragic isn't it. a lot of 2015 played out the way it did because valentino genuinely wasn't looking for beef #but then felt backed into a corner and decided he had no other option than to blow this shit up #if casey says 'what I think is that we won the race' valentino would've torn him a new one then and there like... #if sete had called assen his best race of the season valentino would've reached for the chalk and incense even sooner #though fwiw I do think the relationship was basically doomed from that point. something would have happened sooner or later #2015 is so funny conceptually because there was already something *off* about it most of the way through. you have the familiar beats #but they shouldn't be HAPPENING with marc. they should be happening with the actual title rival - who vale never properly fought all season #assen 2015 should've been laguna should've been catalunya hell it should've been assen 2004 but it couldn't be #valentino kept accidentally inflicting the psychological blows on the wrong guy because jorge just refused to end up in a straight fight #assen SHOULD have been a pivotal race. but of course it couldn't be because what psychological blow was jorge lorenzo being dealt? #btw the unwillingness to beef doesn't just extend to marc. valentino makes a concerted effort to be uncharacteristically friendly to jorge #still think he would've rubbed assen in his face but. overall! he was trying! which again. very ironic #funhouse mirror ass season i love it dearly #// #brr brr #slowly dipping my toes into dropping 2015 hot takes on tumblr dot com... for so long these have been between me god and my google doc #i love jorge i think he's been involved in a lot of iconic battles i think it's funny not a single one of them happened in 2015 #minus kinda phillip island but even there it did feel like the other three were Doing More than him #also just a different vibe to a proper one-on-one. a WEIRD title run where the third man that whole year walks away with the trophy

Hi Jules,

Saw your post about RWBY. I have seen up through V8. PLEASE tell me all your hot takes. (If they’re anything like your sohae analyses then they’re going to be immaculate). <3

omg welcome to the list of followers i know watch rwby!! (it's a small list, but it's also one of my favorites hehe) idk that i have any esp hot takes?? but i'd love to talk about something that's been on my mind a lot recently..?

that thing is the schnee family... i personally am a huge sucker for the mechanics and evolution of family dynamics and how each individual functions within and outside of it. and aside from the belladonnas, whose family web has a third of individual relationships as the schnees, weiss's family is really the only one we get the privy of seeing in totality?? which i think is really interesting considering they are also the most public family of any of our mcs--even pyrrha, who was more known for her own name than her family's.. but i digress.

so much of the character of the schnee family really is based around that public persona, the facade they each present to the world. while we aren't very familiar with the former heads of the family, or of the sdc, i'm still inclined to believe a lot of this attitude was brought to the family by jacques, who has been acting since day one. he acted like he was in love. he donned the schnee name. he dyed his hair white. he swept willow aside, took her family's legacy from her, and then spent the rest of his life pretending like he deserved to be where he was and manipulating people into playing along. and of course behind every facade is something worth hiding. for jacques i think there was a lot of insecurity and fear there--youthful desperation that he was never quite able to move past because of his choice to take the cheater's way to the top.

willow, on the other hand, seems to move through life with a lot more vulnerability--loving jacques. loving their children. i'm sure there's probably an amount of safety and security growing up as a schnee heiress that resulted in her never having to form that shell that jacques did, but that's exactly why he was able to get into the power position in their relationship, and making it so she just gave up when jacques showed his cards to her, bc she didn't have anything up her sleeves.

and i think its really interesting to consider the kids growing up in this climate.. each of them learning in their own ways what parts of themselves to control and diminish vs. which strengths were valuable to play to. even with both winter and weiss stepping out from their father's control, the effects of their upbringing still follows them. they saw the powerless position their mom was reduced to because she didn't demand respect the way their father did, she didn't walk into a room with the air of the most important person in it, at least not within the confines of their family--because why would she? meanwhile, jacques, who viewed their relationship as nothing more than a stepping stool, a business transaction, would have maintained that facade and that attitude no matter how intimate the setting. and of course both girls would notice and internalize that at a young age. we see it in weiss, especially during the beacon arc. and even winter's choice to become a soldier, and then her ability to move herself up to the top of ironwood's ranks... they wanted to escape the pressure of their father's thumb, but they just carried his lessons with them, adapting them to their own lives. school and the army. and then that's something they need to unlearn. or rather.. they need to learn to tap into the heart they inherited from their mom as well, to fight against the fear of weakness and collapse that they associate with softness. it's in much of weiss's arc throughout the series, and we see it in winter as well as we reach the end of the 8th volume and she's struggling between her personal beliefs and ironwood's as he continues to devolve. without the rules and control that ironwood brought, winter is then forced to tap into her heart.

whitley on the other hand... whitley fascinates me. since he was younger than both his sisters, he would have had less time to see their mom as her genuine self before she lost herself to depression, paranoia, and alcoholism. for whitley, the only option was to be like his father, which only makes it harder for him to see the distinction between who he is and the controlled front he presents to others. his relationship with weiss, his small bits of character development we've seen so far, are so important to me, because it really shows the possibility for all three of these kids to grow beyond the trauma that perpetuated within the walls of their icy mansion. even down to the one who suffered the worst of it all by himself. willow once told weiss not to forget about her brother, so i refuse to stop projecting hope in his direction.

#sorry that was probably so much longer than you wanted. their family just makes my brain go brrrr #the way i could probably write almost as long a post about each of the kids too sadkhfjls #your username-icon combo is incredible btw. i get such a kick out of it every time i see you in my notes hehe #<33 #asks #rwby #weiss schnee #winter schnee #whitley schnee #willow schnee #jacques schnee

Do you have any other OCs other than Zeynha and Revelry?

I do! I have many, but here are two of my most developed ocs, from an original story of mine!

Joe (left, they/them) and Aster (right, she/her) are from a world where monsters made of shadow secretly live among and around humans. The two of them are shadows themselves, and spend their time trying to protect others like them from the humans who want to hunt them down.

I imagine it as a bit of a horror-inspired, monster of the week type story, where the monsters are the ones our protagonists are trying to help.

Joe is a tech nerd and gamer and Aster likes books, flowers, and shitty tv shows.

^ monster forms

#I was in high school when I made them omg. aster has been with me for so long. I forget she’s an oc of mine and not just an iconic characte #joe is named joe because it was a throwaway name for a throwaway one-time villain character #I drew them for a comic in high school and my friend said what’s their name and I said joe as a joke right there on the spot #they are no longer a villain. and also no longer a cishet man. true character development #also they have signature colors aster is purple and joe is green #anyway this ask has got me thinking about them a lot now so maybe there will be more art of them to come #oc art #ask #ty for the ask btw!!

trying to be ~back online~ after almost three years of disconnect feels like being the weird aunt who only comes over on holidays

I don't recognize my favorite cousins or know who's dating who and I've definitely missed some family issues and big milestones bc I've just been spectacularly out of the loop

but that doesn't mean I don't love u

#what am I even doing lol #I've been out of 'social' mode on tumblr for so long #most of the blogs I follow are back from the days of teen woof and naruto #now I don't even know who half the people on my dash are anymore bc I last interacted with them like six urls ago lmao #I hope all my old internet friends and moots are doing good even if I don't recognize their new blog or icons and can't call them out #do I try and write more even though im well and out of date on everything? #do I swan dive into a new fandom and hope they're nice? #do I delete my tumblr and ao3 and walk into the ocean? #(that is the most tempting of all the options btw) #feels like a genuine pet sematary moment like #sometimes dead is better #flospeaks #maybe it is time to sign off #prolly to delete later if I remember

KNOWING YOUR PARTNER WELL CAN POTENTIALLY MAKE WRITING TOGETHER A LOT EASIER. REPOST DO NOT REBLOG !!

NAME:  sara

PRONOUNS: she/her

PREFERENCE OF COMMUNICATION: discord

NAME OF MUSE(s): we have adonis, jacqueline, zoran, dawn, damian, jude, cass, althea, amir, mark, mahogany, timmy, ian, ivan, hailey, xander, and gin

RP EXPERIENCE/HOW LONG (MONTHS / YEARS?): 14 years. omg i’m dust asdgfhjkslaiwdj

PLATFORMS YOU’VE USED: quizilla, tumblr, email, discord-- and the one that started it all: the moshi monsters forums. i currently only use tumblr tho.

BEST EXPERIENCE: honestly 2015-2017? i had much less depression and much more muse, AND those were the years during which i met most of my long-term partners. you all know who you are. i love you forever <3

RP PET PEEVES/DEALBREAKERS: aside from obvious things like prejudiced behaviour, i think my biggest pet peeve is when a mun is unresponsive? which i totally understand -- especially when social anxiety or executive dysfunction come into play -- but it makes plotting really hard. that being said, i don’t mind quiet muns so long as we’ve set basic ground for our muses/threads already!

MUSE PREFERENCES

FLUFF, ANGST OR SMUT: for all my muse intents and purposes, i’m a big mean angst demon

PLOTS OR MEMES: plots!!! i don’t reblog much memes to begin with, but it’s nice to use them as prompts to go along with plotting, too

LONG OR SHORT REPLIES: medium? 2-3 paragraphs is my jam

BEST TIME TO WRITE: late afternoon with a cup of coffee and a song on repeat :D

ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSE(S): probably! ever muse i have is built on SOME personality trait, emotion, experience, or aspiration i have. Dawn, for example, is built on my aspiration of being a self-reliant badass. Adonis is built on my need for validation. Hailey is built on my inner child. Jude is built on my reltionship with my religion -- and the list goes on. i honestly don’t think it’s possible to make a good character without association to yourself somehow.

Been back from vacation for around four days now and learned about Charles Martinet retiring, which did bum me out.

Like don't get me wrong, I knew this day would happen eventually. Nintendo clearly wants their franchise to go on for as long as they can, and Martinet is already rather old. It was only a matter of time before he would have to pass on the torch. But i guess I just didn't expect it to happen this soon ?

On that note, I'm actually not that worried for Mario's voice. In the trailer of Mario Wonder, the new actor sounds a lot like Martinet, to the point where many thought it was him (myself included). And considering Nintendo being Nintendo, they'll probably not tolerate a bad imitator. I'm also not worried for Wario since Wario Ware Gold happened so him having another voice won't be too weird (for context I played this game in french). As for Waluigi, he's a character I don't care that much for so I won't mind if he sounds a bit different.

Now Luigi is actually the one I'm worried about, because Martinet gives him such a soft-spoken dorky shy vibe and I couldn't imagine him any other way. I'm going to miss him sounding like a dorky sweetheart trying his best to be as brave as his bro...

Oh and also, a few things I've read and agree on : 1. It'd be better if each of those characters get their own voice actor that can imitate them well, rather than trying to get one person who can do some voices well but others not, 2. It sucks that Martinet didn't get to voice his characters one last time in the movie, tho given there's going to be sequels, it makes the casting decision makes a bit more sense (makes more sense as in "not casting Martinet so that there's no actor change for the sequel which would makes the voices sound off", not the whole "shitty popular guy instead of an actual voice actor" thing), 3. At least Martinet chose to retire instead of being unfairly fired. Hell Nintendo actually recognized how much of an impact Martinet had on their characters and made him the Mario franchise's ambassador ! It's great !

In any case, thank you Charles Martinet for voicing our childhood. ❤ The cheerfulness and dorkyness those characters have wouldn't exist without you, and may you have a happy retirement.

#Super Mario #flor talks #also I didn't know where to say it but it's worth noting Peach for example went through a few voice actors as well apparently #granted her voice isn't as iconic as Mario's; as long as her actress can sound soft and high-pitched; it sounds in character #anyways #I considered reblogging a post and adding my thoughts in the tags #but decided it'd be less awkward to just do my own post rather than rambling in the tags again #also this post took a few days because I had some weird issues with my laptop; but it's fixed now ! (I hope) #on unrelated news I now have a smartphone instead of some old thing #so now I have you silly gay people in my phone #but that also mean I have to deal with the live bullshit... #(btw I actually really liked my old phone; it could make phonecalls and messages which is all I ask from a phone #but nowadays you're forced to have certain apps with internet available at all times so I had to change since my tablet won't cut it #can't have shit with capi//talism)
