#lets talk about crystal

[luna-lovegreat]

I want. Four to get appreciation. Because

Four gave a ton of unnoticed help when Twilight was injured

The fight with Wild was difficult, and I know we're all concerned about his negative view of the shadow crystal

But Four did something that no one else really thought of to help- He took care of Twi's stuff

From the beginning he told Twilight to not worry about them

So Four took care of pretty much everything but the others (that Sky and Wars handled)

He took care of Epona

Which is so very important- he took care of Twilight's horse. After her arrival at the stable Four followed up on her

And for Epona, a horse so attached to her human, having some company can help so much for reassurance

He took care of Twilight's stuff

He got Twi's shield- his bags and equipment, and organized it into one place

And he was worried. He obviously found the shadow crystal while handling Twi's stuff, but his negative reactions to it were out of concern.

Also- because of his placement in this scene

I'm fairly convinced Four was ready to start cooking before Wild showed up (since he's beside the counter with food supplies). At the very least he had the basket of fruit out for everyone -but he was literally standing with food behind him- he thought of everything

And he did housekeeping!

Wars payed for the inn, so Four took care of the inn

Realistically these boys were probably not too concerned with tidyness. Four got all of Twi's things on one table, and took care of the room they stayed in

Organizing tables and Twi's things, having food supplies ready, and opening the curtains- overall he was the one tidying up the inn

Four helped in a huge way! He took care of Twi's horse (Epona is so important), his equipment and shield and bag, as well as the other rooms in the inn

Four filled in all the little tasks that others didn't think of. He helped in ways that were needed, but not obvious

There's a lot of problems with the shadow crystal and with Wild, and I don't know what's gonna happen in the future

But don't forget this- don't forget that Four was one who stepped up in an almost unnoticeable way

Don't forget that when everyone was barely holding it together, Four visited Twilight's horse and took care of his things

No matter what develops in the future- this amount of care shown is important ya know?

#epona is so important #Lu four #linkeduniverse #linked universe #I work with horses and #Epona is INCREDIBLE- she's extremely attuned to humans and emotions. she doesn't scare easily and can keep her cool in a fight #but it's still super stressful to suddenly be in a fairly large and populated town- separated from her person #and for such an empathetic horse? Four going and TALKING to her- gently petting her nose and just being near her #means so so much! that literally matters so much to a horses mental state in a foreign situation- just having company #he checked on Epona and gave her company like !!!!!! it's so considerate and means so much for Epona! Four I love you !!!!! #uhhhh yeah! #with the food- I don't think the innkeeper would have free/complimentary food out- but wars wallet def had it covered #then wild showed up with potions in a cooking frenzy- but four was still shown with food behind him- he thought of everything #I don't know what's gonna happen with the shadow crystal and stuff. but no matter what happens in the future- this matters. #he did a ton of small things no one else thought of it matters he cares so much didjdkdksjfjj #I have a lot of posts I'm making/editing and trying to get to. I'm just a little gal trying my best :/ #so many ideas and so little time... I love you guys and this fandom so much :)) #(if I said anything off or offensive let me know... I'm always nervous about that but I want to hear from you if I'm wrong) #(also you are so so cool and valuable don't forget that ok? I love you and you are important) #:)

i just saw someone call ffxiii overrated like? what?? it's literally one of the most hated games in the franchise wym "overrated" 😭

#they've gotta be butthurt it got 3 games #also saw someone whine about how it shouldn't get a remaster bc ''other ff games deserve a chance'' and i was baffled #xiii and xi are the only mainline ff games that aren't on modern consoles what are you talking about!!!!!!! #i shouldn't be reading random men's comments on ffxiii omg it just makes me peeved lmao #final fantasy xiii #i gotta ramble real quick abt how we don't have a remaster yet actually #it bugs me when people act as if it's because ffxiii was some huge embarrassment for square and that they want to bury it #when it actually sold super well #and lightning became one of the most iconic protags in the whole franchise #not to mention that xiii got TWO SEQUELS that ALSO sold well #AND the combat system has influenced modern ff titles #square doesn't hate xiii omfg get real #but that does make it even more absurd that it doesn't have a remaster yet #some people think it doesn't need one since it still looks so damn good #but it's not really about that lol it's about accessibility and letting it reach a new audience (the pc port is too broken seriously) #something tells me it's because the crystal tools engine was so much of a pain to work with but idk they haven't really explained anything #either way it just annoys me when people claim xiii doesn't deserve a remaster bc ''no one likes it'' when that really isn't true #and calling it overrated is beyond insane

more Crystal Clay AU (au by the fantastic @warning-heckmouth) thoughts once again cause my brainworms wont stop just listen hear me out-

Clay's smart as hell, he basically forced himself to be a nerd post-band breakup so like...picture with me,,,Clay pitting Velvet and Veneer against each other,,,straining their relationship by just sewing those liiiiil seeds of doubt anytime they're alone with him,,,,or just bringing up "totally real" things they said to make em look like liars

after all. hes the fun one. the dumb silly fun one! Who's gonna think he's got the capacity to lie?

im just sayin Clay's gotta have a mean streak somewhere in that heart of his that "Hm. John" that MEANT SOMETHING-

#masky says #trolls dreamworks #crystal clay au #trolls clay #clay trolls #listen okay listen i just think he could be mean and evil back at the already mean and evil twins #the vibe of the brothers getting captured and the show happening- #-and velvet and veneer are just at each others throats for the spotlight they think the others trying to steal like listen #LISTEN I HAVE A VISION I HAVE THOUGHTS THEY MAKE SENSE TO ME #clay literally making it so they're the reason for their own downfall #not by Floyd's gentle reminders that veneer can be better #but by just pitting them against each other till they were willing to burn the other to the GROUND to win #floyd had his strategy clay has his lets all be respectful of that :) #hes so gentle with veneer agreeing with his plights and gently mentioning how its so strange velvet never agrees with his FANTASTIC ideas #while with velvet he's not dumb he knows she's good at her shit #so he works WITH her shit. he pretends to fall for her sobstories n such and talks about how veneer always said she was just so cold #that she could NEVER show so much emotion! #its those lil seeds of doubt yknow?

WARNING: FFVII spoilers + ship talk—scroll if you want to skip, because I am simply commentating my own gaming experience & not trying to start a war in the comments

-

It’s the way I’m DESPERATELY trying to play FFVII with an openness to Cloud and Aerith because I know it means so much to so many people—and yet even when I go to YouTube and watch alt versions of mandatory scenes I cannot fathom how people are missing the subtext of “Aerith knows and acknowledges Tifa is so much more than Cloud’s friend even as she wants his attention because she doesn’t know if he’s really himself, has been extremely lonely since Zack left + knows somewhere she’s going to die for herself” ☠️

Like I am 3000% for FF ships that have a lot of groundwork but aren’t primary canon, because Square is notorious for building true chemistry between people who are not ever canonically romantic (hello Phoenixflare) but…it’s getting kind of absurd to see how many people are denying the subtext of Aerith as secondary to Tifa solely because they love their ship.

Perfect example: the scene where Aerith goes up on the Nebelheim water tower (a place wholly and entirely tied to Cloud and Tifa’s ongoing relatonship) and asks Cloud about his town…only for us to get this:

As someone who just consumes media generally…the whole subtext of the scene is clearly that Aerith trying to 1) pull Cloud’s actual memories up from the mind muck he’s going through (something she and Tifa both do repeatedly) and 2) remind Cloud of the side of him that inherently has always had a whole ass crush on his childhood best friend to help jog his memory.

Sure, it reads as a cute moment between them if you want that…but if you’re paying attention to the purpose of the scene itself and what’s being said (verbally and subtextually)…it’s astronomically clear this is a Cloud x Tifa recognition delivered to the audience through a Cloud/Aerith moment…and this happens repeatedly ☠️

And then…immediately after having her be upset that she doesn’t have someone the way Cloud has Tifa, and asking to be alone? I…I just. Like it’s so hard to be here in the middle of a war about “optional scenes” when shit that happens to everyone happens just like this 😭

#example of what I’m talking about under the cut #I just. LISTEN. #I fucking love Aerith #I really do #and even though some of her actions are quite curious to me re: cloud romance #I can clearly tell they are setting her up as loving him as a friend more than a romantic partner #and her still feeling so tied to Zack…while knowing she’s in for something terrible. #even with all the whispers shit that’s crystal mf clear—she’s just trying to find joy while she can #and cloud is more than willing to indulge her because he cares deeply for her too! #…and yet #we are so clearly in for a cloud x tifa romance in the long haul #Tifa and cloud love each other. cloud and Aerith LIKE each other—and even she comments DIRECTLY on ‘liking v LIKING’ #I just…whew #ship your ship #but let’s not outright lie to ourselves here LMAOOOO #ffvii analysis #cloti #ffvii #ffvii spoilers #remake spoilers #final fantasy spoilers #the me tag

i really love peppermint butler because of how they write the undying loyalty he has for bubblegum all while doing his fucked up dark magic stuff on the side... like, he is genuinely intelligent, but a lot of characters like this would typically be wanting to overthrow their leader, or their shenanigans would get in the way of the heroes, or there'd generally be the threat of them truly turning to the dark side as a secret antagonist, but literally none of those things happen with him -- he keeps these aspects of his life separated for the most part, all while he's very concious of bubblegum's dislike of magic, and bubblegum trusts him enough to not snoop on him like with the other candy citizens. when bubblegum is ready to give up her position as princess, she willingly gives it to him simply because he's her most trusted advisor. a big part of peppermint butler's character to me is about this balance and control he keeps over the double life he lives

#talk #cartoons #adventure time #one of my favorite pep lines has got to be “and let the crystal medium work its magi-- ...it's science.” like it's so underrated #and i do kind of wish we did get to see bubblegum finding out about all of it #how her perspective changes or even is excused simply because it's coming from someone close to her

the animal crossing happy home academy hates me for my mismatched furniture in wonky directions and my stolen botticelli painting i have hanging in my bedroom (real)

#let’s not forget my heart crystals i just threw on the floor lmfao #but what’s a girl to do?? #yes i turned that dresser backwards it looks better that way i swear #i refuse to change anything abt this room it’s real 2 me #let’s not talk about the fact that i killed SEVERAL roaches in this room bc it has been AGES since i’ve played

Never allow yourself to lose touch with the fact that the entire fucking population of Remnant (except for one bitch who is long past her death date) has access to elemental-based superpowers, and chooses to not learn how to use them.

#rwby #was thinking about the faunus to human huntsmen ratio and then remembered this little fact #we have the same number of faunus huntsmen as silver eyed warriors and i think they should address that at some point #and even salem can use elemental powers except she was born able to do that naturally so we dont talk about it #“but dust is expensive” yeah well superpowers are badass #even for the most mundane shit like floating a plate when your cooking #or like oh shit the waters out good thing i have these water dust crystals just sitting here #plant dust lets you control plants? whole landscaping company idea right there

Favourite Outfits Made For Fics PT.1

Original Post:

https://www.tumblr.com/hoperays-song/726065505478344704/i-know-i-never-have-mentioned-this-except-in-like?source=share

----------------------------------------

Ok! So, I made a post awhile back talking about how I have folders of costume design for characters and if anyone wants to see anything in particular to let me know, and someone asked for any outfits that I'm particularly proud of that I've made for my fics!

I've really been looking forward to this so, I'm gonna show off a few of my favourites in terms of pure design here! These were the ones that were the most fun to design in my opinion, aka, Nooshy's interview outfit and Porsha's new casual clothes!

*Reminder that all of my stuff for fics is placed in the human au so the clothes fit into that too*

----------------------------------------

Nooshy's Interview Outfit:

So one of my favourite headcanons of Nooshy is that she loves bright colours and contrasting patterns and will dress deliberately very mismatched. This causes her clothes to be pretty memorable a lot of the time, even when she's just wearing borrowed clothes from her brother or friends. However, her interview outfit is a time where I really let this shine.

Ok so:

The main attention draw of Nooshy's outfit is a very shiny silver jacket with fringe that matches silver boots that they wear as well.

As for her shirt, it looks like just a purple button up but is actually iridescent fabric, so it looks more magenta-ish in certain lighting and with movement.

The only seemingly plain things of the outfit are black shorts and a plain black choker but the rest of her accessories are neon green and magenta, including their earrings, bracelets, and they changed her laces to be neon green too.

I really like this one because I think it shows Nooshy's very out there and bold personality as well as being one of the most unique, in terms of style, outfits I've ever made.

----------------------------------------

Porsha's New Casual Clothes:

So Porsha's original outfit was very much like her dad's in terms of color scheme and I really wanted to make an outfit that was a bit more colourful like her personality was. I kept a bit of designer clothes in there but I really wanted it to showcase the fact that I headcanon her to be living with Buster and Eddie now, so she's probably not going to be decked head to toe in it anymore.

Ok so:

I am a firm believer in giving these kids jewelry so Porsha is decked out in a gold anklet, chokers, and moon earrings (to honour her connection to Moon Theatre now).

The same is with her sunglasses, I switched the from something very crystal-like to a sun and moon design to show her affiliation with New Moon Theatre.

I wanted to add a jean jacket like she had before but made it much simpler with just a yellow stripe instead of the fancy sleeves of before. The yellow also represents cheerfulness and I wanted to keep that running as a good descriptor of Porsha's character.

The jeans are just plain white because of the tons of detail elsewhere on the outfit, like the desert on the shirt representing Redshore and the stars on her shoes alluding to her role in Out Of This World.

I like this version of Porsha's outfit as it's a lot more colourful yet still more toned down than her original. I think this would be a good way of showing her leaving a life of luxury and showing the importance the show and troupe have come to have for her.

#sing 2 #sing porsha #sing nooshy #im not great at writing these two but i love designing for them #they are a lot more accessories driven than the characters that wear introduced in sing 1 when it comes to design #i also really love ryan and johnny's formal clothes so i might make another post talking about them #or how i changed the costumes to suit the new show better #let these kids wear jewelry damn it #fic stuff #please ignore spelling errors im very tired #porsha crystal

An adorable student who I worked with last year told me today that she has roses in her backyard and, after I told her how much I love roses (they're my favorite flower!), that she'd pick one and bring it to me. 😭 And had I not been literally in the middle of doing the job that is expected of me that I get paid for, I might've cried.

#crystal visions of lilies in the valley #and tbh it makes me want to do something kind like that for her! 😭 hmm...I think I can think of something. #I feel like I actually know her better than a lot of other students I work with because we've actually talked before during 'down' times #before summer 'last' school year she even showed me a book that she was writing and I was like 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 #that just made me realize that I guess I actually do have more in common with her than I fully realized before! WELL 🥺 #the only thing is that I don't want to play favorites with students. I'm happy to empathize with them (and do) and sometimes that can #maybe look like favoritism but I try to do that with all of the students I work with so that it doesn't seem as much like favoritism... #even though I do have favorites but tbh that *usually* means I'm even less inclined to let them get away with stuff #because I *know* they can do better and it's my job to help them believe in themselves. BUT...sometimes I get overwhelmed #(by other students* - like today) so I don't encourage them as much as I should have...but...live and learn. #(I'm talking about two different students in two different grades btw. in this post and in my tags. lol) #* and I also know that my job is to help EVERY student believe in themselves. and I try the best I can (barring getting overwhelmed)!

it’s funny how after 2 years i’m back in the anger stage of grief

#i’m so angry and sad #it’s like everyone moved on but i’m still stuck in that moment feeling small and scared #can’t even talk about it with my family because they like to pretend that everything it’s okay and back to normal #i just want to scream and cry and curse at the universe for making me so weak and not letting me move on like everyone else #crystal rambles #to delet later

I’m not going to be very active today my loves but I promise I will work on the blurbs tomorrow and the next installment of the Forget series. ☺️

As a Sagittarius, I think there's something to be said about me continously falling for these Capricorn ass men. Fictional as they may be.

#toast talks #I know literally nothing anout zodiacs except for the fact that they look cool as hell and I like stars and crystals #that being said #Kaeya and I vibe in our Sagittarius energy #Diluc and I probably butt heads but I like his stubbornness. Even if I don't let him know it. #Then there's the three Capricorns that will NOT leave me alone #I knew about Tighnari and Zhongli being caps but I honstly forgot Thoma is a cap too #Not to mention my fucking partner and my DAD are caps too #I have a problem and it's called 'give me stability because I can be an emotional glass cannon'

what's your muse's biggest dream? and in return, what's your muses worst nightmare? their best and worst possible ending according to them?

Turo's dream was the future in a sense. He wanted to see TOMORROW in a sense of great advancements and achievements in his lifetime. Lifelike AI, androids and cyborgs amongst organic things, technology that was seamlessly blended into the everyday or systems that can think for themselves for greater output. He was greatly inspired by Heath's work and his own specialty in coding and technology.

His nightmare actually came true already. Failure on a such a grandiose scale and the inability to differentiate reality from work. He wasn't as level headed as he thought he was and his work slowly took the place of where he should've been, with his family and using the work to benefit people. Funny enough that finding tomorrow in a theoretical sense warped into creating a time machine to bring the past and future NOW and then keeping everyone out of the funny pit they would've called paradise for only their family's benefit and the horrors that came from it.

But overall this genuinely is the best possible outcome. Should he and Sada succeeded the paradox Pokemon would've taken over Paldea, both of them would never come out of Area Zero again most likely locking themselves in with Arven and uuuh, yeah, bad end for real.

At least in this ending one parent snapped out of it midway is good...should've done it better though and like...not run off for ten years. But hey! He's uh...back (hopefully he stays on the straight and narrow).

The better reality has both parents alive and realizing they should've stopped with their research after the tera orb project, return to the surface, enjoy their success and accolades for what they did for themselves and Paldea, and raise Arven as a functional family. But that sounds too good to be true sadly.

#inbox. » .010 ✦ #headcanon. » .009 ✦ #OUGH....just had to be too excited about work and let the crystals do the talking now did ya?

do you think maximus accidently "overheard" a bunch of shit purely bc he pretended to not know sign language for like 10 years. like there has to be things bolt signed to medusa bc he thought nobody else in the room would understand anyways. there has to be SOME things medusa didn't translate bc it was just him venting or cursing right. what secrets does maximus have??

#like. bolt tells medusa someone has a shitty outfit and maximus is just sitting watching them like 👀 #they try to surprise maximus but it NEVER works and they cant figure out why #lets ignore the moral implications of maximus pretending to not be able to converse properly w his own brother for a little bit #bc i think there could be a few fun scenarios to play around with #i def like how in the comics maximus can understand him just as well as medusa and doesnt like. hide that. #i guess he also can read minds in the comics i suppose that helps #i just think black bolt and medusa shit talking while maximus has to pretend to not understand them to be very very funny #OH WE CAN MAKE IT SAD. THEY TALK POORLY ABOUT MAXIMUS RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM. OH SHIT WE CAN MAKE IT SAD #SO MUCH to do with this show's poorly thought out canon #KABSKABDH #but anyways. WHY is sign language not like a necessary thing to learn in attilan. why does NOBODY know sign #surely that should be taught in schools if their king STRICTLY communicates in sign?? #why do none of the other royals know sign? karnak gorgon crystal and triton NEVER try to learn it?? #like.thats weird right? even if its so the audience can understand bolt. which is why a lot of dialogue between him and others is kinda off #the implications that NOBODY in his family except medusa and maximus even ATTEMPTS to learn his only means of communication #is just p weird!! why wouldnt they?? you can still have that weirdish dialogue that he has when hes alone w medusa or max #throughout the entire series #instead of. abso fucking lutely NOBODY of these 1400 people except TWO ever learned any sign #sorry ive gotten off topic here the world building fascinates and confuses me !!! im obsessed with dissecting this bug of a show !!!! #inhumans #marvel #maximus boltagon #blackagar boltagon #medusalith amaquelin
