@time-for-a-lullaby just posted about their Baseball Chris series, when do you plan to copy it? Like with your shitty, trailer trash verision of Arranged by her. Go jump off a cliff, stupid fat fuck.

That was incredibly rude. If you haven’t noticed. I stopped writing. And in fact you’ve inspired me to fucking leave this shit hole blog site permanently. I’m so tired of y’all claiming is.

oh my god, not more 'Roman was the most abused!' in the wild

Friendly reminder that the suffering and torment Xie Lian experienced actually made him LESS kind, and the lessons he learned as a result of that pain were that human life is meaningless and compassion is worthless and people don't deserve your help or care or love for them. Xie Lian had to backtrack and reject these new lessons in favor of the old ones he had already known in order to return to being kind.

Xie Lian losing everything he loved and knew, being stripped of his power, autonomy, safety, and community, and being ridiculed and humiliated, did not teach him anything worth knowing. He did not learn any valuable or important lessons from it. In fact, he needed to consciously decide that he wasn't going to let it change him and work to go back to the person he was before all that shit happened in order to avoid turning evil.

#TGCF #Xie Lian #Heaven Official's Blessing #i thought we were past this discourse but it's on my dash again #xie lian did not need to endure all that crap to learn any lessons #xie lian does not have a hero's journey! #TGCF is a flat arc #the protagonist starts off already knowing the thematic truth #it's the rest of the world that believes a lie

I love your take on Crowley!

I know that the early, non-Diasomnia stories aren't really your thing, but are you reading the novels at all?

I have been following some of the fan translations and the second book seems intense! Would love to hear what you think about them.

thank you! 💚💚💚 I'm not really sure why you think I don't like the earlier arcs though, I love pretty much all the characters and their storis! (I think 5 and 1 are my favorite of the past episodes, though 6 infected me with the Shroud brainrot something fierce.) I just...ESPECIALLY love diasomnia. :') but there is room in my heart for all of these dweebs! like, who among us is not just as ride-or-die for Adeuce as they are for us.

that said, I don't really follow the other adaptations like the manga (aside from a dip-in just to see the new Yuus) or the novels, though I keep meaning to check them out! I do like seeing the differences between the different forms of media, and how certain things get adapted one way or another! but alas, time/a lack of accessibility stands in our way more often than not. :( someday...someday I will have time to consume all of the media...

#art #twisted wonderland #i have been playing this game since the day it came out #and believe me i could not have stuck with it for the past three and a half years if i was not deep into all of these idiots #not to harp on it but i do think it's funny because i actually. really did not like the diasomnias at first. #it was like a month before their cards/personal stories were added and so we knew almost NOTHING about them #the website descriptions basically make everyone sound awful #so i thought they were kind of mean/boring compared to everyone else! #(except maybe lilia but i was mad at him for the two seconds of 'girl? 👀' hope i had when they were revealed) #but once their cards came out i fell just as hard for them as i did the rest of this silly game #well. sebek took a little longer. but his ketchup incident converted me. #anyway i have so much sentimentality for episode 1 especially #the prologue was like 'oh this is actually a very silly game! oh there is a plot!' #episode 1 was like 'oh i LIKE these characters and what they're doing with them' #(i think ace punching riddle was the moment i decided i REALLY liked this game) (sorry riddle) (you were being a huge dick though) #also...ink drips. ink drips everywhere. #look when i say this game is laser-focused at me and my tastes specifically i am not kidding

drawing my favorite sculpture but it's my guy

(Barberini Faun)

#I love this sculpture so so so much I dont even know how to explain it #there's just a certain kind of like... power to it? #like to be asleep in such a vulnerable position #it feels extremely confident #and the way the expression is slightly angry #it's just like... #it just feels like some kind of latent. energy. I dont know how to explain my thoughts hahaha #just feels like if you were to disturb him it would be absolutely terrible for you #someone to sneak past #to fear #he's in charge and you're just hoping not to get caught. #anyways #zagan #we were legion #demon #demon oc #my art #illustration #digital art #digital illustration #digital drawing #I forgot some minor little things like some of his jewelry and some of his horns #but I think this is him much much much younger #and much more powerful #and so in my mind he looks much different #ALSO I'm not trying to make the drawing 1:1 to the sculpture lol #its just a reference cause I love the sculpture

y'all for fucking real. don't fucking write slave fics or x reader fics of aventurine's slavery??? are you guys out of your goddamn minds???

#i swear half of you don't fucking think. #what makes you think it's okay or “angsty” to write fics about suffering like that #especially without nuance?? or any understanding of the ramifications #its one thing to write about it being integrated into his past #but it's another thing to write it as an *in the moment* thing #especially if you're writing it to portray him being bought again -- who gives a shit if the reader “saves” him or “treats him nicely” #that's still a perpetuation of the cycle of abuses #like it's still already brain dead of hoyoverse to write about the suffering of POC by using a fair skinned blonde man #but come on #i thought we were better than this?? #like yeahh #dont get me wrong - i love aventurine and his development. the writing is amazing despite how bad form using very white features #to portray a real race of color and it's suffering (the romani) #but you guys. come the fuck on #hsr aventurine #aventurine honkai star rail #aventurine x reader #honkai star rail #hsr #hsr x reader #i know it's “NOT THAT SEROUS” because it's a fictional game but im still putting tags for racism and slavery bro. wtf y'all #tw racism #tw slavery #random talk

Looking at all the leaked concept art for Freminet and I’m actually SO bummed the final design was the one we got because. Come on. Look at THESE

These are all

WAY better

Than what we got

I’m SO upset actually. Why did they put him in short shorts. The baggy pants with the wetsuit underneath is SUCH an iconic look

Also I’m personally a bigger fan of pink-haired Freminet. We were ROBBED

#Genshin Impact #GI Freminet #Freminet #Fontaine #Welp!! These are all my OCs now. My designs now /j #These are all really really cool and WAY better than what we got 😭 #Idk it might just be my personal bias. But I love love LOVE baggy clothing with skin-tight clothing underneath #Literally the majority of my OCs have that trait #ALSO ONE OF THE DESIGNS HAD THIGH HIGHS??? #WE WERE REALLY ROBBED. SEVERELY #Also. I fucking SEE you Penguindrum reference #THOUGHT YOU COULD SNEAK PAST ME HUH. HA #Shima speaks

"erm actually this teenager is just as bad as the adult who is grooming them because they sometimes act according to the horrible things they've been taught and have been offered no alternate perspective on" <- how some of you sound when talking about rgu

#yes somebody can be both a victim and an abuser. obviously. #but the harm adults can cause children will always outweigh the harm kids can do to each other #i thought we were past this kind of bullshit someone get me the hell out of here!!!!! #m

astarion origin playthrough worth it just for all the extra moments where he does the "sad wet cat" face

#bg3 #bg3 spoilers #thoughts about media #astarion #*kisses his forehead* my awful little bastard man... i love you and your big sad watery eyes. #IT'S SO FUCKING QUIET THOUGH IF YOU YOURSELF ARE PLAYING HIM GOOD LORD #I'M SO USE TO HIM COMPLAINING TO MY TAV!!!! #OR BANTERING WITH HIM OR KARLACH OR WYLL!!! #I MISS HIS THEATRICS!!!!!!! #not that it's ENTIRELY quiet. until i found karlach i was travelling with shadowheart lae'zel and gale. #and let me tell you. gale and lae'zel do NOT shut the fuck up if they are together. #they were literally having an entire tinder date while we were trecking through the woods to go get karlach. #i NEVER knew they talk so much because while i've travelled with them individually in past saves... #...i've NEVER had them in my party at the same time! #gale is actually pretty nice to lae'zel! he asks a lot of questions but doesn't condescend her as he does others sometimes. #that's probably because he's afraid of her though. I would be too were I nothing more than a wizard with 8 strength. #I do like how you can look at pretty much any two companions and get a well written and generally enjoyable dynamic! #It feels like they considered that a lot of people would want to maybe pair off the companions they didn't romance with each other! #and wanted it to be easy for really any pairing to work... if a person just paid attention to their shared interactions.

Lahabrea possessed Thancred before this questline even started which means these are back to back Laha interactions. Here is how he greets the WoL in the Waking Sands immediately after his Disney villain introduction.

Meanwhile in Minfilia's solar:

presumably he took a brief break from running Alphinaud's errands to go dramatically laugh at the WoL

#enjoying all this with Pandaemonium context #there is a lot to unpack here #OK LETS GO PANEL 1 #based on the follow up he's really just testing out the person who killed ifrit - not too different from elidibus' test later. #he comes across as goofy but i gotta ask if he taunted panda critters the same way before experiments #moreever hydaelyn is busy going “Eeeeeevvvilllll!!!” in your ear while laha chatters #I assumed this was direct line to the WoL consciousness the first time #but based on 5.2 she might just be bullhorning to anyone with ancient powers which means lahabrea is listening to her shout “eeeevviilllll” #hilarious I hope that is what was happening #PANEL 2 #not shown is laha opening with “oh hi <player name>” #like he sounds more like panda laha here than almost anywhere else nearly #in which of these two panels is he acting more I ask??? #I'm thinking its an even split per emet-selchs reckoning of his lost personality #if he could hold out as long as he does hanging out there in the Waking Sands hall then #it becomes very easy to see emet-selch felt like he was getting enough sanity out of him at the time. hes surprisingly functional #in spite of that intro #PANEL 3 #we were SO ROBBED to miss alphinaud investigating ascians with lahabrea. so robbed #alphinaud is still unsocialized at this point so extra annoying to laha for sure #thinking about how lahabrea acted around themis in the far past fills in a few blanks. can draw a couple of parallels perhaps #rotating that thought #ffxiv #ffxiv spoilers #Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn #lahabrea #alphinaud #minfilia

[helga-grinduil]

can someone please explain to me how afo reveal 'absolves' nana and kotarou? i mean, nothing about nana's actions and etc changed with this reveal. literally zero. she still chose to keep ofa with herself instead of passing it on. she still sacrificed her own happiness for the sake of others and hurt her son by doing what was right. it only confirmed that what she did was for nothing.

afo didn't manipulate kotarou to hate heroes and didn't suggest being strict with tenko, he only encouraged him ALREADY being strict with tenko. and lord, okay, you can argue that kotarou's trauma was the result of afo hunting down and killing ofa holders (nana included) and their families, but we knew that since, like, forever. why did this become a deal breaker only now???

why are we taking afo's words about tomura having no agency literally? what is this, 2019???

#bnha #bnha spoilers #bnha 419 #'the themes are ruined' WHAT are you talking about. #i thought we already were past the 'surface level reading' stage when it came to afo and tomura #not to mention the fact that afo spying on shimura was also like. a fact known for ages #and the reveal changes nothing about people not helping tenko because they were waiting for a hero to do that or that heroes ignored tomura

hey folks who interact with creative works online! just a tiny PSA

If you don't like a character, that's totally fine! If you have a different reading of a situation in a show & have issues with stuff that's going on, that's also fine.

What is NOT fine is to ACTIVELY SEEK OUT fans of the characters you don't like and talk shit about them, the characters they have feelings about, or the content they've posted b/c you, Freddy McHatesalot really needs to tell everyone how much you dislike a...fictional character.

You are totally welcome to consume content in your own space in whatever way you see fit. It is disrespectful of the fandom space to try to drag other people into your space and interact with you if they don't want to. And dunking on a character in writings or art of them is fucking rude as hell to the person who put work into into the creation they made out of some feelings they were having.

Also. side note, it is possible to enjoy a character who is Wrong About Some Things or Isn't Doing The Right Stuff In The Right Situation. Sometimes it's possible to like a character and disagree with them, and shitting on people b/c you can't see what they see in a character is pretty trash garbage and is 90% of why I just make silly little art for me and my own silly feels and hope folks get a chuckle or some enjoyment out of it too.

#Behave better #and if you can't behave yourself I'm not going to play into your little hate roleplay #you can do that elsewhere while I enjoy the nuance in my media thankss #don't pull me or my work into your weird vendetta against fictional characters #I draw art for me and for anyone who is feeling like I am #to jump in and be like “this person is the shittiest & I hate them” on that creation is ummmmm #why I don't interact with fandom like I used to #b/c if people can't control themselves it spoils the whole pot #I don't like some characters and stories and ships #does anyone here who isn't a close friend of me irl even know what they are? #no b/c I don't find that worthwhile to spend my time doing #I don't fill my page with hate for fictional characters. I post what I enjoy and share it to put more joy out there in the world #sorry this is so long #I'm just fucking pissed b/c I thought we were past this bad behavior #and I'm too old too tired too busy and too stressed to have to put up with this shit. Grow up.

Are you still active on tumblr?

YES I am!! Sorry friends for dropping off the face of the earth, I got a job and I had to move and it was a lot. But I am less stressed now and I hope I can get back to posting more regularly!! I really missed it (ﾉ^ヮ^)ﾉ*:・ﾟ✧

I will never leave tumblr because there is no other place on the internet where I can tell people that 80% of the time when I try to introduce myself to someone in the office that I haven’t met yet I get so focused on smiling and holding eye contact that I forget the part where I actually have to introduce myself (°□°)

#HELLO FRIENDS #how are you!! I missed you! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ #I hope you all had a good summer!! #mine was very nice even though there was a lot of stress and new things happening #suddenly there were so many adult things in my life that at the end of the day I just sat on the couch and watched decorating shows #I love decorating shows but today they showed this decorating competition and one woman had to decorate her whole bedroom coral #and then I knew it was time to go back #friends I've done so many new things the past few weeks!! I've really underestimated what this new chapter of my life would be like #it's very nice and I'm glad but I've never thought about things like insurance and taxes and parallel parking before #and I'm in a new apartment and everything!! ✧⁺⸜(●′▾‵●)⸝⁺✧ #it is a very good apartment but the landlord left us so many of their chairs #this does not sound like a problem but we also owned chairs before #so our chair number is doubled now #the kitchen is full of chairs the balcony is full of chairs #I've hidden two chairs behind the TV but I can still see their chair heads and then I feel bad because they do not deserve this #they should be roaming free #also rode a BIKE #they say you never forget how to ride a bike #but my secret is that I never really knew how to ride one #in Germany all students have to do a bicyle test in fourth grade and I was so bad that my teacher asked me #afterwards if I had tried to confuse the other students #I just said 'uh yes' and then he said ok and I passed with the worst bicyle grade of the whole school #I hade made 8 bicyle mistakes #I hope you're doing well friends!! see you soon!! #have a nice day :)
