so my nsfw dark relic comic is 12 pages LMAO this bitch be big....between work and my fic and the holidays idk when i'll be done so have another sneak peek in the meantime👀🫣
"9 AM to noon: Lindsay and Sadie drag me out of bed to go to the mall of all places. They dressed me up in so many tacky outfits that I lost count. I guess some of them looked alright. Not my style, though. Feels great to be back in my regular clothes."
"1 PM to 4: Gwen and Duncan pick me up and drive me to some shady parking garage. Gwen's driving and Duncan has aux, so the entire drive is a purgatory of nu-metal and watching my life flash before my eyes. I don't know how they convinced me to let Duncan give me a piercing. It looks cool, I guess."
"5 PM to 7:30: Eva and Izzy come over to "help" me bake a cake for Owen's birthday. Remind me to never let them in a kitchen. Ever. I'm still combing icing out of my hair and Eva kept breaking eggs. The cake turned out good, though. No thanks to them."
aka Noah's very long day of getting annoyed by his friends. (he loves them anyway. he'd never admit it though.)
no, no, i don't mean "witch" in the cartoonish old woman with crooked teeth and warts sense, no i don't mean it in the second-half-of-the-20th-century-sitcom sense either, or even the modern pop feminism sense, i mean it the umineko way, which is "someone who understands the narrative through and through"
You've heard 'Shinji is a closeted queer kid, he shouldn't be considered pathetic cause he buckles under the weight of protecting the whole world'
Now get ready for 'Asuka watched her mom take her own life after attempting to kill her, she's not a bitch, she's a traumatized orphan who has been repeatedly told that her only value in life is what she can give others'
Titus was not the victor. But would you mind drawing him?
As someone who consider herself one of the biggest D6 stan in the fandom of course I don't mind drawing the only named character from the District (in the original trilogy)
Feel like Titus is such an interesting character that Katniss mentions off handily. It shows how brutal the games can get that one of it's players will resort to something so taboo to survive. And how that amounted to nothing because the Capitol still killed him for it. Kind of shows just surviving isn't enough, you also have to be entertaining and palatable. Really hammering in that it's reality TV, not just a death match.
With the context of TBOSAS it makes sense why they weren't rooting for him. It hit too close to home. Instead of being the reflection of the "worst" from the District, he became a reflection of the worst from the Capitol. Which explains why they would never accept him as Victor.
Sidenote, I think it's interesting how it's also meta in the way Capitol "propaganda" gets to the reader. So many fanworks I have seen with him in it just takes it at face value that he must have been a crazy monster, instead of a starving kid stuck in an arena with no food seeing how he ended up being killed by an avalanche. It's interesting in my opinion.
Have more thoughts but I'll spare those for my fic so yeah so if you are reading that...there's something to look forwards to or maybe not it's rather bleak
I made this a couple days ago but only added more to it today! i now consider it finished.
This a little based on an Ocelhira fic I read that is set during the 9 year gap ( "I hope they never understand us" by theArchduchess) where they’re trying to work together and the girls argue like every chapter.
Kaz is an emotional bomb and doesn't understand how Ocelot can keep his composure when he supposedly has a 'special connection' with Big Boss. What he doesn't know is that Ocelot has a lot going on behind the scenes.
He's also hard headed and stubborn when it comes to his ideas/decisions to make money + gets angry when Ocelot refutes his ideas and thats basically how the animatic starts
thinking about the fact that in finale jacks gives tella the dagger to stab him with to end their marriage right??? and she does. but in ouabh, jacks gives eva the dagger, and tells her to stab him but she chooses not to. which probably surprised jacks because it seems like he thought she would do the same as donatella 😭😭😭😭 help i'm in shambles
The power she exudes is subtle, almost tender, beautiful and supple yet resilient, like the silk of a spider’s web. She entices as much as she ensnares, lets you step back but never abandon her.
