embarrassment of my life... i just realized that i used "you're" instead of "your" when i replied to the jp artist in twitter....... head in hands bro i rlly just up and said "you're art is really pretty"
the two character groups don’t actually have a great deal in common as far as their actual personalities as individuals or their vibes as trios -- like, very little, honestly, most parallels between the characters themselves would feel really forced -- but thanks to some interesting bullet points they still share...i definitely did/do think about a ‘God and his Two Faithful Lyctors’ AU for the Three Sages.
FASHION PROMPT: @descevents’ the aektis gala’s winter wonderland
most people look at her and will likely see the fashion equivalent of “a passing grade is just as great as an a plus” for she took inspiration from snow and snowflakes and left it at that.
fancy dresses are pretty and all but highly unpractical as udyati’s body is bad at making sure the internal temperature is up to par.
so instead she opted for a white turtleneck, a white blazer as well as white jeans and a black belt for a pop of color. she is also wearing white ankle boots that aren’t too cumbersome.
the look is completed with her hair in an updo, white mehndi on her hands, two golden earrings in the shape of snowflakes in her ears, three enamel pins - the knife wielding snowman on the right lapel and the two happy snowflakes on the left - and, of course, her two signature rings - one on each hand.
this isn’t so much about being the belle of the ball - or gala, she supposes - but about being warm and as comfortable as possible in an environment that makes her anything but. udyati has never been a party person, but then again, she’d be lying if she said that she wasn’t curious about the aektis gala. she is.
I've been on a bit ob a Russell Crowe movie binge in the past few weeks and since he is almost sixty now, many of the movies I've watched were consequently older movies. and when I watched them, it struck me again, how much hollywood has changed in the last few decades when it comes to depicting men.
take Gladiator for example from the year 2000. Russell Crowe plays basically an action hero in it. he is a big, muscly dude, who is very strong and uses that strength to defeat his enemies. and this is what he looks like:
looks like a strong man, right?
in the same year, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine looked like this in the first X-men movie:
in 2013 the same character played by the same actor looked like this:
it's a bit much, isn't it? I mean, he looks so skinny.
and if we go even further back: look at what the womanizer character Face from the A-team looked like in the 80s show vs the 2010 movie reboot:
maybe the difference isn't that big but it really startled me when I watched that movie for the first time. in my mind there was no reason why Face should be particularly muscular since he is the charming one not the one known for being particularly strong.
if we go even further back, look at the charmin womanizer character Hawkeye in M*A*S*H from the 70's.
I know he's a doctor and there is no reason for him to be ripped but I got the feeling if they did the show now, he would be.
I don't know what my point really is I'm just saying I got a bit nostalgic when watching these men. I cannot be the only one who'd rather see more of this:
than this:
also, as a sidenote: Russell Crowe gained a lot of weight for the nice guys and he is a fucking powerhouse in that film, like, when he punches someone, you really feel it because of the weight that is behind it and the shere mass of his body.
(even if this may look different, he's about to break Ryan Gosling's character's arm. I couldn't find a gif of him punching someone but I swear it looks painfull as hell.)
so, in short: can we get big, heavy action guys back? cause I'm tired of seeing these skinny, despite being muscular dudes who look dehydrated as hell and on steroids.
and can we stop making characters ripped just for the sake of it? cause I'd rather cuddle with a guy looking like Hawkeye than one looking like Face from the new A-team movie.
Maybe it's the autism but i genuinely cannot comprehend a person who, when told to get their shit together and do their job, goes off and cries about their hurt feelings rather than getting their shit together and doing their job

Alternative interpretation is equally funny—the yandere is pointing out random groups of people and slowly narrowing down their choices.
