I hadn't planned on doing anything more complicated than a sketch, but here we are…

#Okay you know wHAt #their size difference kills me #Do you remember how Raphael could hold Splinter in one hand? #same vibe here #And Leo?? #And Leo grew a hell of a lot bigger in the future #My brain does somersaults when I try to imagine his height compared to a human baby #rise of the tmnt #riseofthetmnt #leonardo #future leonardo #mutant ninja midlife crisis #and #odd man out #of course #These two fics feed me so I can feed the tumblr

#look how far you've come look how far you've GROWN #the quote from the national for me is both about tommy AND buck himself #both saying how he dreamed of tommy specifically #but also how he dreamed about this future - a future of finding the thing that made him the person he *could* be #and here he is finally realizing that piece of himself that was missing #that it was here all along #buck dreamed of this version of himself - joyful and light and FREE - for his whole life #and he *found it* #here in a coffee shop #across from tommy kinard #something something invisible strings #...the parallels man... #they kill me #anyways #i literally learned how to gif to make this so #baby's first gifs #thats how you know how insane they make me #otp: better ways to get your attention #bucktommy #kinkley #also on the #firepilot #firecopter #agenda #evan buckley #tommy kinard #911 abc #911 on abc #i made this!! #im so proud!!

tbh i think that even unwinnable fights should be winnable. some of the BEST fights i've ever run as a dm were ones i built kill the players (in a fun way. I had some cutscenes prepped so even the loss would be a different flavour of win)- but then they were clever bastards and managed to either win the fights or pull themselves out of trouble. I think it's perfectly fine to plan for a fight that players aren't supposed to win, but you need to let them. if they can't win, they can't lose, and the meaning of that encounter is diminished. do that too many times, and they stop trusting you to give them roleplay prompts and start expecting to sit there waiting while you drive the story for them.

but if they can win... if there is always the chance to win, no matter how impossible the odds, then they ALWAYS have hope. they always get invested. they feel the big emotions of success or the big emotions of failure, and you fucking Win as a dm/roleplay prompter/lead bastard.

#qsmp neg #qsmp crit #discourse #<- for blacklists #im not grumping or anything im just musing on like. the mechanics of why everyone is so upset about the latest fight #and how it can be avoided while still keeping these fights genuinely difficult and intense #its hard because there's so many players and they all have wildly different strengths and weaknesses #so someone who could take on the code easy needs that enemy scaled differently than someone who isn't a big fighter #but it's hard to do that in a world where they interact w the same enemy #and you only have so much man-power to cater to a big server like this one #and then you bring in the big powerful items that the players can and can't access but which the admins have ultimate power over #and the fact that some of the admins themselves have lag issues or aren't super great at pvp so they accommodate that with better gear #and it starts getting messy #but for the fights themselves yeah regardless of what armour or gear or killing-methods they use there should Always be a win condition #and idk maybe there was one and we just didn't get to see it #but if that win condition is 'parents sit in the safe room with their babies while the others are overrun' #then i think there are ways to build better win conditions #anyway i love game design and player/dm interactions qsmp hire me now i want to know your behind the scenes #jk im too busy to apply #but man. i wanna nerd out so bad that sometimes i think about it

Antis will be like “Jiang Cheng never viewed Wei Wuxian as family, he was treated like a servant!!! 😠😠😠” but like… if I showed up day-drunk to work, stopped performing my basic duties, kept skipping out when the most support was needed rebuilding, escalated fights during diplomatic events, and refused to tell anyone why I’d started behaving like this, I would definitely get fired. But instead Wei Wuxian has to quiet quit and then actually quit when even that doesn’t work, because as far as we can tell Jiang Cheng would've let him stay as first disciple forever no matter what. So like, if Jiang Cheng thinks of himself as just Wei Wuxian's boss, he does a pretty bad job of treating Wei Wuxian as just an employee.

Are there complicated class dynamics and internal senses of responsibility and debt and duty and obligation fucking both of them up? Absolutely. But Wei Wuxian is definitely not just a servant or a debtor, it’s much, much messier and more complicated than that--which is kind of the problem.

#tbh I think this also comes down to projecting modern (and often western) power dynamics on a very different system #but it's also just flat untrue lol #like you don't let yourself get captured and tortured for Just Some Guy who works for you #not to mention the whole making sure wwx could see jyl before the wedding and get to name the baby #normal things that bosses do for their employees after they quit #once again: there are many things to critique about Jiang Cheng #but antis always fully choose takes that are just blatantly untrue #like the amount of posts that claim he killed wwx when he just flat didn’t is wild #like wwx beat him to that! my man just can’t win! #mdzs #cql #the untamed #jiang cheng #wei wuxian

y'know i'm with dazai here. if i were him there is nothing intimidating about chuuya.

#unimportant #imagine being a man who's basically built like a tank pushing 6ft and some scrappy little guy keeps coming up and challenging you to a figh #'who is this sassy lost child' energy #chuuhuahua fr fr #'i'm gonna kill you dazai' girl you can't even look him in the eye without craning your neck #actually i bet you can't even do that without adjusting your hat brim #operation shame and toad is so funny bc it's just chuuya hiding behind dazai and like. he completely disappears. hence. shame #dazai could probably fit 2 of you behind him actually chuuya. #he also got that baby face too. like. bro's probably getting ID'd everywhere he turns. #even though he's a known mafia executive who regularly breaks laws #sorry. it's chuuya nakahara bullying hours

lord i am always thinking about him

#i want him so bad. i dont need him. i dont need him. i dn #rotates him in my mind. #bay. byaby. baby. #bbbabbY. bbabayy. #BABY. #sci speaks #one day i will have you. #he is like £40 and that is homophobic. i cannot in good conscience spent that much money on one single funko pop. #how could i look myself in the mirror. #but look at him. look at him. LOOK AT HIM. #one day the planets will align and i will find him at a reasonable price. #in the meantime i will cry over him. #theres also a spider-man in the spider-mobile funko i'd die for. i'll kill for him. sci show them the spider-mobile funko.

something I’ve been thinking abt is how many people think Makoto is immune to despair. I don’t think he is. I think becoming the ultimate Hope was BECAUSE he felt despair. He wouldn’t have fully reached that point without Junko. Makoto becoming such a beacon was his last attempt to avoid completely falling and it wasn’t because he didn’t feel despair, it was because he was too damn stubborn to allow everything to go to waste and he refused to sacrifice his beliefs for someone else’s. His inner monologue tells me he DID experience the same new low the other suvivors did in the final trial, but at the point where he had the choice to give up and die, he looked at the others and he looked at Junko and he couldn’t allow it to happen, not out of self preservation, but because the idea that Junko would have control over their lives made him FURIOUS. and that utter refusal to die kicked in, wether luck or otherwise, and he made the concious effort for one last push while something in him was breaking. He had to be broken in order for the Ultimate Hope to come through so aggressively, bc it could only exist in the face of the Ultimate Despair. He snapped the same way she did, but in the other direction. In what could have been his final moments he chose to embody everything Junko wasn’t, and every single optimistic and luck fueled ideal in him suddenly charged forward and pushed him. It was a combination of the final straw and a choice. Makoto isn’t immune to feeling despair, he’s just too stubborn to fall into it of his own volition. I think that’s why I like that scene in DR3 so much. People were SO SHOCKED Makoto actually fell for the tape, that he actually became despair for a moment. I saw people getting mad or disappointed, saying it was pathetic and Makoto seemed to fall from some sort of pedestal for them. Honestly part of me wonders if that sort of mentality, which clearly people had in universe, affected Makoto a bit. Like he started to see himself as less of a person, subconsciously. Prompting him to take more risks, less self preservation, act way more bold. It seems he has to be reminded a lot not to put himself in danger by his friends, to not do something too reckless. All over the place I would see in regards to that scene either this frivolous ‘oh this was just angst drama with no meaning behind it’ or ‘he can do better than that. he’s so weak’ or ‘come on, there’s no way he’d fall into despair, he’s the Ultimate Hope!’ This kind of mentality, which was kind of ironic considering Ryota was there the entire time saying the same thing and treating Makoto the same way. Like Makoto was superhuman. Like Makoto didn’t feel despair the same way ‘normal people’ did. In a way that was also how Munakata saw Makoto. Makoto stopped being a PERSON to the world when he became Ultimate Hope, he became a concept, a belief system, much the same way Junko ascended beyond herself. But the difference is that treating Makoto that way is the opposite of the reason Makoto became such a representative for hope. He wasn’t doing something no one else could. He was doing something everyone had the chance to, he just… was a little more optimistic, a little more stubborn, a little more ‘gung-ho’ about things. He just took the lead where no one else did, where no one else knew they even COULD in the face of Junko’s unstoppable force. She had overcome the biggest threats and obstacles in the world, what could one person do? And the answer Makoto found was, anything. Everything. It doesn’t all rest on Makoto, he’s just the one that was inspired to try to do what seemed like the impossible. But as evidenced by the change in his friends after that trial, it’s clearly not something only Makoto is capable of. The others pulled out of despair thanks to Makoto, but it was their choice to do so.

“But… this world is so huge, and we’re so small. What can we do…? No, we can probably do anything. Yeah! We can do anything!”

#makoto naegi #Danganronpa character analysis #Danganronpa #danganronpa thh #danganronpa future arc #I fucking love Makoto Naegi man. #I think there’s a fine line of nuance to Makoto that’s easy to miss bc he doesn’t really make it known #he’s not a pushover and he’s not overpowered. he’s a people pleaser but he will say what needs to be said #he’s an immovable object and the exact opposite of Junko but he’s also just a normal guy who’s optimistic and (un)lucky #he isn’t invincible but he has immense power to his words the same way Junko did #if anything his superpower is being kind above all else. he’s compassionate to some of the worst people in the world. #he was even conpassionatr to an extent to Junko. he didnt want her to kill herself despite everything she’s done #and he still acknowledges that for years she was a classmate and friend. #I do think the more he learned abt what she did the more he’s come to actually hate her though #post the first game he always refers to her without a suffix to her name which is one of the most subtle rude things you can do #it means you have zero respect for the person you’re referring to #and he speaks about her with some venom he doesn’t use for anyone else in the future arc #he’s not incapable of feeling negative emotions #I really liked the future arc scene bc it showed that Makoto DID experience enough despair to have overcome him if he didn’t refuse #and that it still affects him deeply. people treat him like he’s either this perfect ideal Chad or this baby chick who’s so delicate #and no one really focuses on how makoto shoulders so much and yet is still vulnerable. #honestly that guy was DUE for a mental breakdown even without the tape. it would have happened eventually #I actually wrote one based on him finally hitting a breaking point after giving so much of himself away and keeping nothing for himself #that his issues that he shoves down constantly finally can’t be held down anymore. Hajime helps him bc he knows how that feels #it was a LONG time ago that I wrote that but honestly if I can remember where i was going w it I might finish it #it was initially an rp but I could make it a fic #anyway. the point is Makoto is SO much more complex than people give him credit for #the most fundamental thing about him is that he’s normal and that’s ok! that’s what helps him rise!

#i got the kny game on switch so i also decided to rewatch this show and was immediately struck on the sole fact #that zenitsu and tanjiros interactions were legit <33 #i remember watching kny for the first time and i was like wow they're platonic soulmates #but i actually ship them now🤡👍 #you could legit take two characters out of the trio and be like ''do you ship them'' and i would be like yes absolutely #because all their personalities go well together to make a wholesome and healthy dynamic #except inosuke who would constantly try to fight zenitsu but then again he tries to fight everyone so #speaking of inosuke i don't remember him being so violent🤡 #that mf literally tried to kill zenitsu and tanjiro both #bitches be like ''oh he's baby uwu'' no my man is literally fucking unhinged and this close to snapping #tanjiro's squad is peak positive male friendship borderlining on gay and honestly that's why this show is 100/10 #kimestu no yaiba #demon slayer #kny #tanjiro kny #kny tanjirou #tanjiro kamado #zenitsu kny #kny zenitsu #zenitsu agatsuma #kny inosuke #inosuke kny #lotus draws

lowkey annoying how the same people who say “wesker would not say he loves you” and accuse people who say that of making wesker ooc are the same people who genuinely think he’d kill you for interacting with him, which is also ooc

#like shut up shut up shut up y’all only like him cause he’s hot and you have no actually regard for his character #y’all r so annoying thinking in his general life he’d be genuinely disgusted at a normal human interaction #no he wouldn’t kill you the second he saw you he’s not an impulsive person #y’all only think that because he’s weird as fuck in re5 and you base all your opinions on him strictly on that game #did you forget the part where he literally fucked some girl from edonia ??? and had a partnership with her ??? #people who genuinely think he acts like his re5 self in his general life do not know his charcater at all #and it’s so genuinely frustrating to see him so out of character in that way #also people wanting wesker to comfort them does not mean they think he’s a soft little baby man #it’s called having a comfort character #of course the character is gonna be softer #people who go ‘he wouldn’t comfort you he’d kill you in a second’ are the most insufferable people #shut up and let people have a comfort character #i could rant for hours about how wesker is perceived so wrongly by other wesker fans #well.. THOSE wesker fans that r annoying asf #oh lawd #(they just think he’s hot and have only seen him in re5) #daily reminder wesker would not kill you the second you spoke to him 👍 #he prob doesn’t know you he has 0 incentive to kill you #like why is he being characterized like a sensitive angry man #why would i ever want to associate wesker with a real man #no thank you

Jesus fucking christ I hate the US south

#Cw gun mention I guess #I was feeling super nauseous so I went into the kitchen to get ritz crackers #And we're at my grandma's rn for Christmas and she has windows in the kitchen that look out at the road/other houses #And NO curtains or blinds because she's old #And anyway I turned a small light on so I could see the crackers and I hear a fucking man outside shout “WHO'S OUT THERE” #In the heaviest southern accent. Mind you every fucking person in this area has a gun bc there's lots of trees with squirreld they shoot #And logically now that I am calming down I know it was just a bad coincidence and he was probably yelling at smthn in his yard #But jesus fucking christ I felt such immediate intense fear my head went cold #Ran to my baby brother's room bc I was certain someone was gonna come kill us #Then the rationality took over and I just told my mom about it. But now I'm sitting outside his room eating crackers bc I'm fucking paranoid #It is almost 4am and I haven't slept a wink I cannot do this rn #But literally the last time I went for a walk around here my dad told me not to go alone and also not to say anything stupid #And also stay far away from houses bc I could get myself shot #Literally what the fuck is this. #“Afearican” except I'm still very much in the US #Not to mention almost every fucking house has a blue lives matter flag and some have isr*el flags now too like #I fuuuuucking hate it here

not an f&b aegon ii fan, not a hotd aegon ii fan, but a secret third thing (a fan of the aegon ii that only exists in my mind)

#extreme mommy issues his father figure is his grandfather & a dude who literally cannot stop committing hate crimes deeply upset that he #could have been his older sister’s male wife but his mom said no and now he has to be king #wants to be a good husband to helaena but resents how gentle she is and dependent on his protection wears his hair short bc he resents his #father’s obsession with valyria when westeros is here now and needs him to do more than just acclaim rhaenyra decades ago and aegon #his true love is his dragon and he was never going to live long after sunfyre. the son that actually DID come with fire and blood to save #his mother but it wasn’t enough never enough because he’s the oldest son but he’s also only second born and what is a second born son than #girlson who is functionally useless as anything more than a pawn to his family. #dying miserable and alone without even his mother’s love bc he came for her too late but he CAME FOR HER!!! HE SAVED HER. too bad. #she doesn’t care anymore bc everyone she really loved is dead. dying a pawn and yet the powerful man in westeros. #letting the narrative consume him alive after sunfyre is injured and finds him on dragonstone. he knows he’s doomed when he goes up against #baela. he does it because what else do you do. you’ve gone too far. killed too many. you killed your sister’s children and she killed yours #in return and now you can’t go back. no choice but mutually assured destruction with the only woman who ever saw how dangerous he was and #how desperate for loce he was. once upon a time. he was a baby bouncing in his sister’s lap on the throne. and she was beautiful and tall #and soft and smart and she told him he was beautiful and loved and pointed out every name and held him the way a mother does. #it has to end there. if the narrative eats me and sunfyre alive it has to eat her too. he won’t go down without her. #getting on my soap box #aegon the usurper

i really do think the systematic execution of the jedi has kinda sorta ruined all future star wars media for in the sense that i am always going to be thinking about the space empath monks who were genocided. there used to be thousands of them and now there's like. 7. functionally an entire culture dead. they can show me all the grogus in the world, im always going to think about how they had to step over the dead babies.

#:v #star wars #order 66 #im glad Anakin got redeemed in the end and got to go to space monk heaven but also THEY HAD TO STEP OVER DEAD BABIES #😭😭😭 #this fictional space opera for twelve year olds devistates me #reva also kinda changes how I viewed order 66 #like it was always a bad horrible thing right but seeing it from the kids perspective. #Anakin was killing babies dude. #ugh Anakin my perfect horrible man #the thing is if obi wan or padme had been there they obviously could have talked him down #but they couldn't have been there #Anakin is the perfect you can't save him until it's too late #like yeah Luke was able to get through to him! #AFTER HE HAD BLOWN UP A PLANET! #they couldn't have saved him! padme and obi-wan I am holding you so so dear you did everything you could #Anakin I'm holding you but it's in a different way. a complicated way #love you as a character. you make me physically ill
