I get to write Willow and Amitys weird awkward friendship in this fic I'm so excited!!!

#its hard being both a willow lover and an amity liker #i LOVE to talk about how amity deeply affected willow's life for the worse #but i also love to talk about how amity has to live with that truth for the rest of her life #i love how amity continues to try because she loves willow #tries too hard even #i love how amity STILL continues to fuck it all up because shes so painfully awkward and guilty #and shes so busy trying to preserve a friendship that died years ago that she doesnt realize that she should be aiming to build a new one #because this is NOT the same girl that she knew #i love that amity still means so much to willow that she cant bring herself to get confrontational over the obvious infantilization #i love that willow is trying so hard too because she wants this to work out so badly #and she cant even admit to herself that this idealized friendship shes wanted back for YEARS is not everything she hoped it would be #i love both girls so much #it used to be a real struggle to talk about this because somebody with a hate bias towards amity always wants to chime in #and like okay fine sure you can hate whatever character you want im not gonna shame you for it #i just dont WANT to discuss one of my my favourite dynamics with people who hate one of the characters yknow? #theyre two teenage girls who love each other and theyre struggling to love each other properly but they want to #I LOVE THEM!!!

would you all still love me if I entered my tally hall era.

#my friend introduced me to them a few years ago now and ive casually listened to like. 3-5 of their songs since. #but im listening to more now. branching out. their music vids rock. their internet show is funny as hell. #so so obsessed with the WTTH music vid. ive got an idea for something to draw down the line regarding that one #i cant do favourite songs in general bc my heart is full of too much love always changing for music. but my current heavy rotations are- #greener and just apathy. wtth and two wuv also. #im just. ourgh.... musac........!!! 🤘😭 #grafftalk #delete later

Deercember Day Fourteen: Barasingha Deer | Wild Strawberries

The barasingha (Rucervus duvaucelii), sometimes barasinghe, also known as the swamp deer, is a species distributed in the Indian subcontinent. Populations in northern and central India are fragmented, and two isolated populations occur in southwestern Nepal. It has been extirpated in Pakistan and Bangladesh, and its presence is uncertain in Bhutan. The scientific binomial name commemorates the French naturalist Alfred Duvaucel. The swamp deer differs from all other Indian deer species in that the antlers carry more than three tines. Because of this distinctive characteristic, it is designated bārah-singgā, meaning "twelve-horned" in Hindi. Mature stags usually have ten to fourteen tines, and some have been known to have up to twenty. In central India, the herds number on average about eight to twenty individuals, with large herds of up to sixty, comprised of twice as many females as males. During the rut, they form large herds of adults. The breeding season lasts from September to April, and the single-calf births occur after a gestation of 240 – 250 days from August to November, with the peak in September and October in Kanha National Park. Compared to other deer species, barasingha are more relaxed when it comes to guarding. They have fewer sentries and they spend most of their time grazing, unlike deer species like chital or sambar.

i don’t think i’ve ever picked up a bird before

#emieclat #comic #webcomic #slice of life #birb #i used to have budgies but it was like 20 years ago and i don't think i ever picked them up #btw i don't think it was badly injured! it was sitting upright and seemed alert and i didn't see blood #mostly i think it just needed some time to recover #(which was what the wildlife center said when we called about a bird who ran into our window and just sat there for hours) #and i think maybe the middle of the road wasn't the best place for that #also lol at first i was gonna try picking it up with the plastic bag i was carrying everything in #before i remembered we LITERALLY just bought two pairs of gloves #imagine me dumping everything on the asphalt and stupidly thinking 'i wish i had gloves' #while the gloves are just sitting there on the ground going HELLO?? #also also the flowers in the last panel are little purple flowers :^) #one is lobelia (my favourite flowers) and i uhhh forgot the name of the other one but it has five sharp petals

i could have a whole new art style . if i wanted

#<- this is a 1am thought #actually it’s more like ‘i could replicate the art style i was proud of in one (1) piece two years ago #and this time i could do it to the quality of one of my favourite artists on tumblr. magically’ #edit: actually i looked back at the 1 thing and if i do say so myself.

My Marius de Romanus emotional journey as told by emojis:

😕🤨😟😠😤😶🤔🫠🙃

#if you went back in time and talked to me two years or maybe even a year ago #and you told me i would not only be writing fanfiction but i would be writing shippy fluff about marius of all people #i probably wouldn't have believed you lmao #it's fascinating how quickly my view of him changed once i started allowing myself to take his whole being into consideration #and not let myself get so hung up on his negative aspects that i refused to examine anything else about him #yeah he's an utter asshole and i'd probably slap him in real life but he truly is really fascinating to read about. complex and compelling. #and once i allowed myself to legitimately examine him he became one of my favourite characters in the series to think about #the vampire chronicles #vampire chronicles #tvc #vc #vampire #vampires #marius #marius de romanus

I am so looking forward to LT3. I hope Louis finally feels confident enough to fully dive into rockier sounds and let the slow tunes (although i do adore Saturdays) and tailored to radio songs (looking at you BTM) go. We need more Silver Tongues and OOMS. Him covering 505 made it so clear that his voice is PERFECT for that kind of sound. The feedback from AM fans was super positive too surprisingly! And I think he knows that his fans will buy his albums no mater what so, here’s hoping I guess🤞

ME AS YOU AND THOSE CROSSED FINGERS, listen, he needs to stop it with the British pastiche nonsense, that whole ~big songTM, the courting of the m.o.r. crowd on radio whatever number it is, and lean into the boppier indie bits, take notes from Mr. Turner that you don't have to write chip shop songs for the rest of your life, you can write the shit that's evocative of your current life TODAY, as it is vs. was, etc. etc., and it'll work! My UO is that a lot of FITF is chasing SOMETHING, and it really didn't have to

#i think fitf is half of a good album of breakup shit and that half is purely made up of boppy songs that just SCREAM AT YOU #vs. the dirges for the terraces vibes that just don't play like they did 10 years+ ago (your coldplays your snow patrols) #i feel like he's savvy and is taking notes #but he doesn't need to give us favourite worst nightmare or whatever just lean into his own shit #i feel like that's what happened with harry tbh only REALLY vague city and that's fine! it works! #and it's NOT what happened with niall #niall stepped back into one direction or echoing harry #i love me some one direction #but it's literally been done before #give it a song or two and move on #just my unprofessional opinion #i don't give a shit if he's chasing new fans or old #just saying what i wanna hear and i feel like louis's the lyricist who could do it #find that melody guy and go to fucking TOWN with it

I've not read that series, can you tell me about the wingfeather series, as for making stats for creatures, a quick fix is taking their closest analogue from the monster manual :)

There is nothing I would love to do more than tell you about this book series!

It’s written by Andrew Peterson, who on top of being an author is a Christian musician which is how my parents found him.

There are four main books in the YA saga with the first one being ‘On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness’. The series follows the Igiby family, which is made of a grandfather (Podo), his daughter (Nia), her three children (Janner, Tink, and Leeli), and a dog (Nugget). The overarching theme is about transformation and of course, defeating Gnag the Nameless and his evil Fangs of Dang. There is also an animated series, with one season out on Angel Studios.

(I have realised that this is gonna get long so, more under the cut)

There are some spin-off books, such as the Creaturepedia which is going to be enormously helpful in making a campaign setting because something Peterson has done extremely well is the world-building and various creatures. My personal favourite is the Toothy Cow.

Given that it’s written by a Christian author it’s creation story is One Man, One Woman but other than that and the characters ‘thanking the Maker’ it doesn’t really have all that much overbearing religion in it, at least in my opinion. The series also has heavy influence from Celtic cultures, especially in the third and fourth books. There are also some really great songs due to Peterson being a musician.

The reason I personally love these books so much is because while yes, there’s an Evil to be defeated it is mostly a tale about overcoming and learning to love yourself and the strengths you have. The youngest of the main characters, Leeli, has to walk with a crutch, but that doesn’t change anything about her and she’s never left out of anything because of it. Every main character, as well as some ancillary characters, is fully fleshed out and given wonderful arcs that lead to a satisfying conclusion. I can’t read any one of these books without crying at least once because of how well-written it is.

Lastly, the plot twist in the first book broke my brain apart when I read it for the first time but when re-reading as an adult I feel like one could put the pieces together before the characters in the book do. It’s still pretty amazing though.

#idk if this is necessarily what you asked for but you gave me a chance to word vomit about one of my favourite series of all time #so I did that #if you want more about the world I will absolutely make a follow up post I just didn’t want this one to be super long #absolutely DON’T listen to the audiobooks for the first two they suck bc the guy gets several pronounciations wrong #I think the subconscious part of me remembers the analysis essay I wrote six years ago about this series #ANYWAY- #the wingfeather saga #dnd #D&D #SPOILER SECTION #the dog does die but not until the second book and it’s a very noble death #dungeons and dragons

[fingertipsmp3]

I’ve just discovered something absolutely fucking crazy and now I’m experiencing emotions previously known only to shrimp

#right so there’s this guy who i’ve kind of had a crush on since uhhh the beginning of time. or it feels that way at least #it’s never going to happen. he lives in hawaii and even when he didn’t; he barely cared that i was alive #i’m normal about it most of the time (or like.. as normal as i ever am about anything i guess) but sometimes the mental illness strikes #and i end up on his fb page. and i did that today but he hadn’t updated his fb since the last time i was on there (months ago. he’s not #very active) soooo i felt starved for new images of him so i used my tried and tested method of checking his mom’s profile. his mom posts #a lot of stuff for the world to see and is especially proud of her two sons #so this seemed like a good idea. right? WRONG. i really shouldn’t have clicked onto there because the most recent picture she posted was #a photo of him and this girl sitting on a bench together and they’re not kissing or anything but they look undeniably coupley #and the thing is I RECOGNISE THIS BITCH. she organised his fucking birthday party last year and i thought it was a normal platonic thing to #do!! but it wasn’t!!!! and what’s worse is these two have known each other for so long but they have just now got together and the reason #i know this is because she’s literally been married. 10 years ago she got fucking married AND HE WAS ONE OF THE GROOMSMEN #HE WAS BEST FRIENDS WITH HER HUSBAND IN HIGH SCHOOL AND HE WAS A GROOMSMAN. IN A TUX!!!!! #like this is sending me. the betrayal. she had a boyfriend in between so i think she’s been divorced from her husband for like 5 years plus #but like….. this shit is making me CRAZY because in one of the wedding photos (which must be her favourite because she posted it like twice #as a ‘memory’) he looks really melancholy #it’s making me so mad i could eat the fucking drywall and i can’t tell anybody because they’ll be like ‘ellen go to bed’ #but like. SERIOUSLY #and the thing is i really should’ve known this was going to happen sooner or later but i had convinced myself it wouldn’t #even though he literally can pull anyone. like. he’s basically roger from 101 dalmatians but with an american accent. he can pull ANYONE #men shouldn’t be allowed to put ‘single’ in their profile if they’re not. the daydream of one day buying a one-way plane ticket to hawaii #and asking him out like i should’ve done 5 years ago has been keeping me going for longer than i would like to admit #and i really hate to say it but what bothers me most is this woman is so bland. like. i guess she has a nice face? but she’s SO BLAND #it makes me SICK #i’m going to have to rant to someone about this irl or i’m going to burst a blood vessel in my eye #hopefully my friend answers the phone tomorrow morning otherwise i’m liable to tell the doctor at my appointment lmao #at least they might take my mental health concerns seriously. #anyway. if you need me i’m going to go to bed but probably not sleep because WHAT THE FUCK. WHAT THE FUCK #personal #**i feel like i didn’t adequately explain but that one photo isn’t my only proof they’re together. there was proof from BOTH OF THEIR MOMS #i am SICK

[transgaysex]

not the defunct tv episode about zoboomafoo making me cry......

#wind howls #THAT SHIT WAS LITERALLY HANDS DOWN MY FAVOURITR TV SHOW EVERRRRRRRR #i used to watch it in french since thats just how tv is here #i already knew that little jovian had passed away years ago but it still made me cry.... that little lemur was my fuckin homie !!!!!!! #i also didnt know the kratt brothers had a show before that :0 ive watched Be The Creature and some Wild Kratts but not the first one #wild kratts is more for children (though i do remember a while back a hardcore kratts brothers fan followed me on here) so im not! #as interested but maybe i could rewatch an episode or two of zoboomafoo with my baby sister sometime. heartwarming treat #edit it was my favorite show when i was like 8 not like . of all time applicable in the present still #also its not 100% true Kaboum was my favourite show but zoboomafoo ? 0.000001% below. it made my little autistic brain go crazy

I have come to the realisation that the warforged I play as it just if Kronk was mormon and self-conscious

#Stencil is one of my favourite characters #she's possibly nearly 1000 years old but only has 3 months of working memory #she's literally built for a war that killed thousands #she weighs 400lbs of pure tank power #she's painted pink #she likes animals #two days ago she learned to talk to them #she's the favourite of a popular god #like #like LITERALLY the favourite #the god liked her before she knew what the god was because she's just that nice #she likes food but can't eat it so just sorta looks at it them gives it to her friend #she is #so fucking dumb #she's the dumbest character I've ever written #with the smarted emotional intelligence ever #she's responsibly for countless deaths #she really likes birda

[taintandviolent]

it’s so fucking weird (sad) when people have to lie about liking something from the jump, even when they didn’t. it’s very unnatural to feel like discovery is wrong and weird. life is literally all about discovery.

#like what for #it’s such an unnecessary flex #like…. I didn’t watch AHS until two years ago??? #I literally didn’t even know who James Patrick March was until my boyfriend cosplayed him in 2019 #why would I have to be like OH YES THIS WAS MY FAVOURITE ABSOLUTE FROM DAY ONE ALWAYS THERE #that’s very odd #like is that compulsive lying or like a crippling fear of missing out or what #texty
