Hit the SLAY button.

Got inspired by a few peoples’ drawings of AFO in a dress, so I drew the guy

I don't like his face, but I personally like how i rendered the dress

dress:

Costume Gallery | William & Mary (wm.edu)

#why can i only make & post art at 1 in the morning smfh #broke the @ cuz I don't know if they like being tagged #Why did I make the dress sluttier on afo? idk but i spent like 3 hours on the fur stuff so i'm not changing it #i'm not the best at rendering but I wanted to try #hope mobile doesn't destroy the colors like it does every fucking time #boku no academia #my hero academia #all for one #yoichi shigaraki #tomura shiragaki #midoriya izuku #kyudai garaki #FUCK I DIDNT NOTICE WHERE THIS DRESS CAME FROM #ITS THE FUCKING GLENN CLOSE CRUELLA DE VIL DRESS FROM 101 DALMATIANS #I WAS LITERALLY THINKING ABOUT HOW CRUELLA-ESQUE THIS DRESS WAS WHILE FINISHING THIS TODAY #I DIDNT THINK I'D BE RIGHT THO

i really do think the lymond chronicles as a series suffers for how inaccessible its first book is. usually an authors first novel that is the standout (they've slaved away over this one book for years before they ever had a publisher or book deal or deadlines for future books), while the subsequent books have to be written quicker, corners get cut, etc. it's strange how DD's work is the total opposite of that standard.

lymond is one of the most dynamic characters in all of fiction, but in the game of kings he's so entirely unknowable you have to read two thirds of the book before you even realize who and what the story is even about. there's so much unexplained historical knowledge that you are required to already know if you want to actually understand what's going on, more scenes about every other character BUT lymond, and while i understand why all of these things get established, i do believe that the book suffers from DD's inexperience as an author.

this isn't about fandom or community or having more people to talk to about the series or anything like that. it just makes me sad and i think a little angry that the barrier to entry on this actual series is virtually impossible to anyone who doesn't have a very good reason to want to get into reading them in the first place.

#the lymond chronicles #lymond #seriously i love these books and they're so formative and important to me #but i just need to say it #i had a few long car rides recently and on a whim i decided to put on the game of kings audiobook which i didnt realize i even downloaded #and honestly if i didnt already love this series #i don't think i'd have finished it #not to mention the well meaning yet extremely offputting elderly contingent that does use twitter and pounces on anyone who says lymond

my 2023 year in review:

published the most recent update for tnp in january

started work on hh originally in twine back in march

wrote and published one day hike in april

wrote and published faith in june for neo-twiny jam

refined hh as a novel instead and wrote the first draft between may-august

wrote and published siren's call in september

also started working on blood choke in may and published the prologue & ch1-2 in july, then ch3 in november

i started a few things that i haven't finished but will hopefully finish this year... bleeding heart will definitely be published within the next month for vampjamp.

i guess my hopes for this year will be:

finish bleeding heart in time for vampjamp (this will definitely happen)

finish the blackwater route for tnp and finally move on to ch3

ch4 of blood choke

workshop hell or highwater & decide what direction i want to take it in

start second draft of hh

#i did write a lot this year i guess. lol #just not for any of the projects i should have (tnp) #i cant really say im that proud of anything that i published tho #one day hike was cathartic and felt like the best thing i'd ever written at the time #but really i think it's just cus i actually finished something for once lmfao #i havent reread it and probably won't #i rushed siren's call and also havent reread it since september #i do like what ive done with blood choke. but im disappointed how much i dropped productivity on it after november #tnp took me at least 2 yrs before i started writing this slow #its frustrating how fast it happened with blood choke... #and even more frustrating bc im so excited for what i have planned. i want to be more proud of it #oh well. the time will pass anyways as they say #i really wish i had an office or desk to write at. i feel like i would be so much more motivated & productive #and also if i didnt work my shitty soul-sucking retail job but. lol

i think a fact that a lot of cishet people don't realise that the queer people who cling to their 'gay little ships' do so for a reason. most of us have had some phase in our life when we thought we'd never truly be happy for who we were. i remember nights i cried myself to sleep solely for that reason. seeing something on screen, reading books that represented people like us existing happily... makes sense you'd cling on to them right? when people say that reading heartstopper changed their life they are truly not exaggerating.

so if you fucking belittle anyone and their little gay ships i will hunt you down personally and end you.

#heartstopper #little gay ships #sad gay shit #didnt think I'd have to say this in 2022 but okay #byler #tagging that because i just finished stranger things lolz #honestly i didnt expect byler to become canon #but what infuriates me is how they used wills sexuality as a fucking plot device #its 2022 #stop it with the sad gay unrequited trope already #it fucking sucks

i knew deep in my bones as a teenager that doing well in school wldnt actually matter in the long run n i just needed to not let it kill me but it is still very insane-making how i was Good At School up until i really wasnt and every adult in my life was SO sure i had to get Good At School again and now the skills i actually need to earn a living are just. communication, focus, lying, pattern recognition. which is pretty much what made me good at school but no one was telling me "wow you did so good on the SATs you would make an excellent shop assistant" everyone was all about going to uni and getting a degree and. idek. writing essays abt books full-time. my primary (currently hypothetical) work-related problems are when managers aren't autistic, and minimum wage isn't a living wage, and not getting sick pay. how would finishing my A levels have helped with any of those

#yelling at clouds #like i think if i'd gotten more actual support in school i could have finished my A levels #and if i was on adhd meds i might have made it thru uni too #but the only way i wldnt still be aiming for the exact same kind of ~unskilled job is if. we didnt live under capitalism #i am absolutely not built to have a job involving my Passions i do not have that kind of attention span #i need to be able to switch btwn primary interests at the drop of a hat #i need my work to be enjoyable in that my colleagues are chill and i dont have to do anything the autism Hates #not in that i Love It. i cant get myself to do things i Love for fun. #anyway. 17 year old spike was wrong abt some things but not half of what everyone told me i was wrong abt.

[macroglossus]

god i can be sooo annoying and pretentious about the stupidest things.... someone said they went absolutely wild and read a certain amt of words in 15 months and my immediate reaction was to calculate how many words it would've been each day and then smugly conclude to myself that i couldve done it without breaking a sweat. can i try shutting the fuck up i swear to god if i met myself in real life id beat me up

#the nerd emoji for real and whats worse is i didnt even think about how annoying it was WHILE I WAS DOING IT #i only came to when i'd finished calculating it out! #whats wrong with me! #as it is now i tune myself out when i talk! how is that not a sign to change #this is a crazy lame thing to admit on the internet btw i feel very vulnerable 😿

#here's some of the classics on that list i have beef with btw: #i have tried to read A Confederacy of Dunces several times and it's funny but it's also so cringe and Ignatius is so obnoxious #that i find it too difficult to finish like i just feel depressed and bad for everybody around him too much #i tried reading Infinite Jest like a decade ago and i got like 200 pages in and i remember thinking it felt like #such a slog the entire time because he's just so gd wordy and also i stopped liking DFW after i heard the abuse allegations against him #frankenstein i didnt read that long ago but i just remember finding it so boring for some reason?? i feel i might need to read it again #dracula ngl i feel like im cheating a bit saying ive completely read it because i loved the beginning and then HATED so much of the rest #the characters were just so boring and melodramatic hahaha i just liked the part where jonathan was doing a travel diary #and trapped in the castle tbh and after that i skimmed quite a bit #i almost flipped my shit when i saw ender's game on there because I ALWAYS mix it up with ready player one by ernest cline #which i bought the audiobook of a while back and hated every minute of it i dont think its good at all #but it wasnt that so phew my faith in this list is somewhat restored #i read most of the first game of thrones book and was disappointed tbh maybe because id seen the show already #so i was like 'this feels almost exactly the same except worse?' because i'd been expecting it to give me more depth and insight #into the characters but instead it felt exactly the same and i still didnt love any of the characters enough to feel attached to them #also i am fully aware me not personally liking or vibing with a book doesnt mean it doesnt deserve to be considered great btw #but i think if youre gonna be like me and force yourself to go through a bunch of lists like this very seriously then you also need to just #let yourself be like 'yeah not for me' without feeling too bad about it sometimes too #often times i dont particularly love the classics or 'important books' but at the same time #i still feel like im getting more out of reading them than just grabbing the newest hyped up books that also dont do anything for me #maybe not in a 'wow i loved reading this' way but in like a #'i now have first-hand knowledge of this thing that is so influential / so frequently referenced' #or 'this challenged me and i feel like i did a mental/emotional workout or gave me some new food for thought' #or 'made me more aware of what gaps in my knowledge and reading skills and what my tastes are too' #sort of way... #it really just depends on what you're reading for and why and what you're hoping to get out of it a lot of the time maybe #it's like the homework i give myself to go through these lists that i also intersperse with the stuff i read more just for fun #p

A Doctor Who Companion Bracket

Yes, that's right, I'm jumping on the trend late and making one of these, but with one key difference: I'm making it more complicated. Not that much more complicated, you still just click on your favourite whenever you see a poll, but I'm going to be starting with an elimination round featuring every single TV companion, a few EU companions, and some extras that I like just to round the numbers out properly.

The first round will have 11 groups, divided up by era. The top half (rounding up) of compnions in each the group will then go through to the brackets, and from there it'll be business as usual and exactly the same as these have all been run.

The first polls (the group stage) will go live on Sunday, and then after those have been inputted the brackets will go out every day until we reach the final. I'll also make a masterpost of every poll

Breakdowns of the groups under the cut!

First Doctor Companions

Four will be chosen from Ian, Barbara, Susan, Vicki, Steven, Katarina, Sara, and Dodo!

Second Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Ben, Polly, Jamie, Victoria, and Zoe!

Third Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from the Brigadier, Liz, Benton, Yates, and Jo!

Fourth Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Sarah Jane, Harry, Leela, K-9, Romana I, and Romana II!

Fifth Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Adric, Nyssa, Tegan, Turlough, and Kamelion!

Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Doctor TV Companions

Two will be chosen from Peri, Mel, Ace, and Grace!

Big Finish Companions

Two will be chosen from Frobisher, Evelyn, Charley, and Lucie!

Ninth and Tenth Doctor Companions

Four will be chosen from Rose, Adam, Jack, Mickey, Martha, Donna, and Wilf!

Eleventh Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Amy, Rory, River, Vastra, Strax, and Jenny!

Twelfth Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Clara, Nardole, Bill, Kate, Osgood, and Missy!

Thirteenth Doctor Companions

Two will be chosen from Graham, Ryan, Yaz, and Dan!

May the best companion win (or at the very least not get knocked out immediately)

#i know literally nothing about lucie miller but i THINK that's a picture of her. i hope. it came up on google images at least. #feel free to yell at me for including the paternoster gang but not your personal fave non-companion companions. #doctor who #dw #companion poll #companion bracket #not polling #the four big finish companions were chosen based on whether i'd heard of them or not #and i didnt include characters from the edas comics etc because i think people either care a lot about those or not at all #and therefore would never have even heard of the characters #but like. we all know frobisher from the memes at least yknow

having a Night. havent been alone w my thoughts in a while and im not liking it

#usualy i'd make up some stupid story to fall asleep but its not working now #some news was broken to me just now and i dont know how to feel about it #i mean i do #ok incoming vent #hate the idea hate it so so much but its so selfish of me to think that way #and the issues all lie within ME and i just. i cant change now #not w all the work i put into adapting to this place i cant just. pack it all up and leave to go somewhere else #my future was set here man. all i had left was to finish a year and a half more of secondary school n get thru my IGCSEs and i'l be set #yeah i didnt have a specific plan but i had come to terms w a solid general one that i actually really liked #and now its all Ruined #'dw you'll be going to a good school over there too! much better than where ur at now' i dont want to #i cant i just cant #i cant leave my life here now not when im so close to finally getting my freedom #i was supposed to graduate top of my class here i was supposed to excel in my extra curriculars i was supposed to be KNOWN #god does that sound horrible of me but i cant change the way i feel and how ive always felt #i was set man. i couldve gotten that scholarship and gone overseas #i NEED that scholarship or my family wont be able to afford to put my siblings into good schools #but now my progress is gone! #yeah idfk how the school system shit works but i highly doubt some prestigious ass school is gonna care abt shit i did in my current one #yeah i could be wrong but what if man #what then. what the fuck am i supposed to do #and im scared i wont be able to make friends there #fuck im prbly overthinking this n being such a fucking pussy but #i cant. be alone #not again i cant do that shit again #i have my friends here!!!! and theyre alright i like to be around them so why cant i just stay #im just so tired #i just want to sleep #but all i can think about is this #vent

re: what fandom 'a little life' came from, my immediate knee-jerk thought was "backstreet boys." i have absolutely no basis for this other than Terminally Online Brain Worms esp bc..........there are 5 of those boyband fellas and as far as i remember only 4 main characters in that book lmfao. what can i say. the boyband angle feel right

yeah i'll incorporate that into my belief system

#fandom life #total speculation!!!!!! but i love it! #a little life #Ok but fr i think the time period of peak bsb rpf fits HY's age group #Also the (initial) thing of we are a group of successful handsome men all just kind of hanging out .. is very boyband au rpf .. #the nebulousness of the setting (in time period etc) is very fanfictiony to me the thing of everyone being successful in different fields #very fanfictiony #And one of them has a horribly traumatic backstory... classic fanfic trope! tho taken to extremes here. who here remembers #the 'rape recovery' fanfic trope. HY said what if that.. but no recovery . which sure is a valid artistic choice a valid question. #what if someone DIDNT get better. but full disclosure i could NOT finish this book i really felt i had to stop for my own safety . #as if people don't not get better all the time u know??? and as that one reviewer said . WHO in the world of this book #WOULDNT become a crystal meth addict. etc. there's no legit way out and that's a total authorial construction. #anyway i do actually think she's a skilled writer but i did not feel the compulsion to finish this book that so many ppl have felt #built different i guess. just walk out! #if you're a normie who never read any absurdly ott h/c fanfiction i guess it hit different tho! #mangoamango #asks #i welcome furhter speculation.... i always thought it was possible it was some band i'd never heard of or some 90s manga i never read #I did manage to read her first book 'the people in the trees' and yes i would describe it as 'good' #but it's like . imagine an ursula le guin book but evil

hey guys im back at it again with the horrible levels of s4 zam brainrot. um.

did i manage to somehow make this song about him in my head? yes! yes i did. and i cannot be normal about it.

#haunted ecosystem #genuinely when youre insane enough about your blorbos everything is about them. this is one of those cases #also i might be writing some more things. and probably watching some vods. #im writing something to post as a general christmas gift fic (as i've done for the last like. two years? in my heart at least) alongside #the two event fics i have in the works PLUS the twb flash prompt event im participating in :) #expect some more bizarre concept fics soon i think! i might also pick up some older threads that i havent touched #i think it'll be fun since my muse is definitely leaning toward writing zam. i love writing him honestly #i have a thing for distinctly pathetic and paranoid characters (see: my adoration for outsiders!apo & pandora [oc]) #who knew i'd enjoy writing characters i relate to #is it weird to say that the general concept of asomatous and the stuff i want to write related to it is very near to my heart. and like #its very personal. its inspired by my experiences you see. the concept of losing sight of reality in isolation and also just #the bugs. i never had a moment with bug pinning but i did have a problem with collecting the corpses of animals i found dead #once spring rolls around im going to work on processing them and giving them proper display and love #AAANYWAYS #ohhhh my god i should finish up bedrock shards and bloody garden #those two are my og fics for this fandom. i want to complete them and share them even if they arent fully how i view the characters now #i think its interesting to share and show initial impressions and also show how i wasn't fully sure about these guys #(also i love how i didnt understand the concept and mechanics of the cleansing but its still Present because it was before s5 so like #it was either s3 or abandon canon and i was sooooo afraid of leaving canon behind in favor of exploring) #my talking in tags habit is showing again.... woops #does anybody even read these? i have no clue #if you do i am so sorry for my habit of talking about dead animals. good lord. it happens so often #i forget it isnt normal until people point it out. having to explain that *yes* i collect dead things is. fun #oh man i have some coyote skulls i really need to clean at some point. its just a pain since i need to get the cage out again and prep them #since the method that got recommended to me is actually bad for the bones (since it involves essentially cooking them which softens #the bones and makes them a lot more likely to break or splinter. so i need to leave them out or bury them and im still not sure which wil #work better. it really depends on if spring is going to be dry as hell again or not. im rambling AND off topic. woops) #Spotify
