Happy 10 year anniversary to Gravity Falls! It's creation then gave us the sublime @gfdatingsim, which had me screaming, crying, throwing up, thirsting HARD, and generally losing my mind, specifically at this part.

learned something about myself lately

#i dont think its even the fact almost all my characters are somewhat beasts in one way or another. i just #really like tails and wish i had one myself #and then my oc designs are a little tame theyre mostly human shaped with animal features. but they always have tails #my eyes have recently been opened to the appeal of long whiplike unicorn tails.. so flowy and curly #something about the tuft at the end being long and swirly just does something for me.. #maybe it would make sense to change auggies tail shape so it looks like a meteor. her design is mainly pink with hot pink accent #so it would be cool to use that and orange to make it look like a fire meteor.. maybe itll help complement the blue/green in her design #head full of ocs today so expect a ramble later #if i had a tail i think it would be long with a kink. so it kind of folds over once but not in a curl #when it wags its kind of a swaying motion. i have thought about this a normal amount #yapping

Enstars sure is an experience. Did I miss anything?

#are you guys all okay? i definitely am not okay #this is not the type of media that i usually go for yet it is EXACTLY the type of media that i would like #so many gaps so many stories WAY TOO MUCH READING I DONT HAVE THE TIME #i know i missed a lot because ive only watched the anime and read the main music story up to ch 4 of the second part #and i have read some events stories that were free #and maybe one or two outside from translations #but like thats it #this is like reading orv and getting hit with its deep metas on human life and the importance of stories #but instead im being clobbered by the most deranged storylines known to man (and again. i read ORV and am a bsd fan) #this isnt fantasy but there is nothing realistic about enstars and i unfortunately am attached #every day i spiral into east asian media that gives me an aneurysm #bsd -> orv -> link click -> enstars....i wanna say they keep getting more unhinged but theyre all unhinged in different ways #anyway please help me.... #enstars #ensemble stars #fandom spamdom #stuff i say #i will admit i am mostly into the game for the stories #a consistent gamer i am not #but to unlock the stories ill push back the animes i have to catch up on etc etc #again. please help me.... #edit: updated to remove queerbaiting because apparently i dont know whats going on

ok alien stage fans dont hate me for what im about to say im just throwing the IDEA out there okay. but just listen

you know how we have these two promo images of ivan and till?

("observation" and "decision" by vivinos)

paralleling their young selves and their current selves. young ivan sits with till and happily watches him sing, older ivan stares more seriously at till as they're about to enter the contest, having just made some sort of decision (we don't know what exactly that means yet. to lose? to not compete? to tie? to... win? given his convo with sua that might be the "nicer" option in his mind)

and now the promo art for round 6 dropped, "cure"

its OBVIOUSLY playing on paralleling these shots again. this time it seems to be after till got punished and is asleep or unconscious (or maybe he just has his eyes closed, but i dont think hes awake- he's not the type to be so chill about the face touching)

what if... its also meant to parallel a "future" shot? just like the previous two?

if till ends up dying this round (SAD!) we could end up seeing the second half of it. with ivan's hand on till's corpse. but this is pure conjecture, not super likely. im just saying is all.

#one of the things that made me think this is that ''cure'' isnt a perfect parallel the way the other two are of each other #mostly in the way till is posed with his hair falling back and eyes and mouth closed #in the other two it seems a point to have all these aspects the same in both versions of him (ivan is the one whose expression change tho) #but its still CLEARLY playing off the same concept. so maybe it also has a ''twin''.... #if it does happen ill put my head through a wall though for putting the possibility out there #but i dont think its likely its just a concept i thought of when i saw the art and thought of the other art lol #is IS called cure though. maybe till does die but is resuscitated somehow who knows #aliens probably have good medical tech that hyuna stole #also ''cure'' has the red show in ivan's eye while the others dont. inch resting. #i love when the red shows you can really see the ''camera'' inspo lol #alien stage

idle thoughts on the smaller clones

and drawing them incorrectly bc i dont care ❤

the way the clones spawn infinitely offscreen in the war level is the same thing as fp's duplication thing in his fight, it's just that his version is WAY toned down. in both cases the clone duplicates are like fully separate, technically autonomous Guys that the original has no control over, so for the war clones that means they're just kind of blindly making infinite guys. In fake pep's case, either his duplication ability got severely nerfed after pizzahead saw what a huge problem that was gonna be, or fp is just smart enough to make the duplicates super weak so they fall apart after a few seconds.

the ones seen ingame are only the 'latest and greatest', as it were. all the clones before fp had just been about trying to make a Stable Alive Thing, so there wasn't much focus on sentience, or durability, or really anything else. most of the ones before those ingame couldn't survive, and the ones that did got eaten by the newer, more evolutionarily "fit" generations. CONTEXT: awhile back @unexpectedbrickattack had been talking about earlier gens of clones being closer to real biological life, being Actually grown from cells or embryos or what have you, but pizzahead gave up on that pretty fast because things going very bad and wrong with actual flesh and blood and that whole complex mess is, um, a hell of a lot worse than just having to clean up some nonspecific Gunk. anyway. it wasn't the intent for them to wind up 90% weird gunk beings, but as creating artificial life goes the less things that can go wrong the better, so gradually more and more of their organs and systems were simplified and/or replaced entirely by all-purpose self-sustaining gunk.

they're largely mindless and very much feral but i wouldn't really call them evil; the biggest problem is really just that they don't have a fear of people or, like, anything else. they're no more destructive than any wild animal, it's just that they have a much higher rate of, uh, Incidents because there's nothing stopping them from wandering everywhere they shouldn't be or just going up to someone and going ham. the Can be cute sometimes but they're also unpredictable and don't have much consistent logic to be trained otherwise so trying to interact with one will most likely just get you bitten and/or mauled

i do however believe so hard in all the clones being violently territorial with eachother, and fake pep is actually a lot more hostile to them now. not that he hasn't always hated them, but back in the labs there was just a ton of them everywhere so it was a 'pick your battles' thing and he'd only go after them if they were in the way or bothering him directly. now that they're not an omnipresent nuisance AND he's got a place to definitively call his own? it's kill on sight. It's like 80% territorial instinct but there's a note of 'do NOT fuck this up for me' in there as well. they Are still out there somewhere postgame, but it's not really relevant for my purposes bc they're way the fuck off wherever that warzone is, and the chances of any finding their way to peppino's pizzeria or anywhere else the cast may interact with them is Highly Unlikely.

#''they dont exist to me postgame'' however i have very much been exploring this in hypotheticals anyway #mostly just because ive been needing to draw more pissed off fake pepis.....itll get its own post later eventually maybe #pizza tower #fake peppino #...i guess. technically. #n e way the main way to tell them apart from peppinoreal [besides the second mouth of course] is just that they aren't very expressive #they DO still emote with that face it's just they dont have the capacity to feel much...actual emotions. to be emoting #tend to just look very blank and stilted most of the time #+ also just generally very differnt body language and also yeah the not having bones. #pizzaposting

Not that I needed a NEW project to work on but... Here's my Underfell take. Let's see where this goes.

#look I'm burnt out on Angel's and I need a small break from FR as I rear up for the side story game. i made the main assets for it and the #story is mostly planned out and ready to be written #i want to do some concept stuff and i only have one life to live and I'm going to do what makes me happy!!!! #underfell #undertale #also i'm being vauge to what kinda game this will be. might be just a visual novel like New Royals! Maybe its a playable game! #we'll find out someday. rn i'm just getting the core concepts down #i actually have been thinking about this for a while but something clicked in my head and now I'm determined to make this thing #so ike. backstory time. i worked on a big project with a friend but that project had history unrelated to me #that it was best for that project to be cancelled and I'm glad it did #BUT i did a lot of cool writing for that AU and I want to use those ideas #so i realized itd be cool as hell to make it a part of my underfell take

#larvesta #i guess this thing has “larva” in its name but it doesn't look like one to me #it looks like a fuzzy little creature. maybe i don't know what a larva looks like which!!! is fair. that is a thing that is true. that i #don't know what a larva looks like. i think i will live in ignorant bliss believing that all larvæ have cool fire powers and look like this #and they all evolve into volcarona. thank you #ugh. EVOLVE. i just finished writing a research paper about pokémon so i can't get the “evolve” puns out of my head #it was awful. you don't wanna read it #doing research was also not easy mostly just because no one wants to talk about pokémon in an academic sense #who knew!

ATTENTION SMUTBLOGS!!!

Please put smut under a cut or put universal and easily filterable words like NSFW, smut, MDNI, etc on your posts!!! Tagging "(character) smut" isn't good enough because even if you put the word "smut" in your filtered tags or post content, it won't cover tags in the format "(character) smut". Which forces you to block every version of that tag for every character in all the fandoms you're in and that's just not reasonable for most of us!!! It would literally be over 100 tags for me tbh bc of how many fandoms I'm in.

Anyway being surprised with a smutpost with no header or warning whatsoever other than the "(character) smut" tag is just super annoying and also makes me worried about scrolling Tumblr near anybody. (And also it means a minor has definitely read your content, accidentally or otherwise.) Sorry to bother anyone, I just wanted the sudden influx of smutblogs to know!!

#gonna put the character smut tags that get recommended to me the most #scaramouche smut #wriothesley smut #neuvillette smut #genshin impact smut #childe smut #alhaitham smut #its mostly the genshin fandom doing this as far as i've seen (or maybe its bc its my main hyperfixation atm) #kaeya smut #kaeya alberich smut

If there's one thing I love, it's doing fanart for a grade

Here's a reference of season 5 jon for my visual development class. If the actual character poses and postcard go well then I'll share those after they're done too :3

Design subject to change as I (or my teacher I guess) see fit

#jonathan sims #jon sims #the magnus archives art #the magnus archive fanart #the magnus archives #character design #listen long hair is mostly impractical in an apocalypse if not properly taken care of #however #its important to me that if jon is poc then he gets to have long hair and enjoy it #more silly sketches later maybe

Can we talk about how in all the 2011 Post-Qualifying pics, Jense and Seb are always gravitating towards each other, and then Mark/Lewis are just🧍‍♂️

#theyre like this in 2009 as well tbh....the australia ones...omg #but 2011 stuck out to me just bcs theyre so often together #the hungary one(2nd on left) is by far the funniest to me like why is lewis standing so far away 😭 #the sebmarkson ones its a little less obvious cause theyre an ot3 yknow 🥰 #but seb imo always is leaning towards jense #but those 3 are mostly pretty close but it feels like lewis always was standing specifically apart 😭 #(maybe one day ill make a 2009 version but i cant spoil myself!) #also im telling you sebson would be so popular if they existed now #lestappen who? these are *my* emotional support rivals 🤭🤭🤭 #only have eyes for each other genuinely!!!!! #like look at any quali/parc ferme/podium/champagne pic theyre always focused on each other #seriously they would pop off in today's fandom #jenson always with the proprietary arm curled over seb's shoulder #ALSO NOT PICTURED #all the other pics from these but its specifically them cropped and like being silly with each other and looking at each other lovingly #also yes Grace if you see this this post *is* because im reading Solar Flare again #f1 #formula 1 #sebson #jenson button #sebastian vettel #mark webber #lewis hamilton

the evolution of the operator symbol over the course of the series is so endlessly fascinating to me, because like. Alex came up with the symbol and only ever really used it on his hypergraphia papers, which we don't really see him do much (if at all) after season one

but Brian,, Brian uses that symbol constantly. It's basically a signature by the end of the series - he leaves it on Tim's medical records, and on the back of Alex's photo of Amy, and on the note he left for Jay about Benedict Hall - he even uses it in his final video to unveil his name - it's self-referential, but he doesn't ever really seem to use it to denote The Operator the way Alex did?

Like, to me it really does seem like he basically appropriated it. "This is the symbol you created for the thing that was hunting you, but now I'm the thing that's hunting you" - like, hh fuck dude, Looking At You

#N posts stuff #marble hornets #totheark #mh lb #i was thinking about this last night and just rewatched all of the totheark videos to check my own work lol #and like. even in the videos he uses it as a self-referential symbol #he uses it in Intermission - 'did you see me? i saw you' #he uses it in Reminder - 'do you remember me?' immediately followed by His footage of Jay at the antique store #he uses it in Decline - 'he will pay' denoting His revenge quest on Alex #sometimes there IS more ambiguity in its application - like in 'Inquiry' or 'memories' #where like maybe it could be denoting the effects of the operator's influence? but those are s2 and i'm Mostly talking about s3 #but i mean even in s1 the symbol shows up in the last frame of some videos like a signature/sign off #sorry brian is just so fascinating to me i want to study him like a beetle
