#I just want to drift down

[svtskneecaps]

also in terms of the bolas playlist it's fascinating to me that the songs added by each person have a slight tendency to represent a consistent aspect of bolas

like

the songs added by slime are their chaos

the songs added by philza are their rebellion

the songs added by cellbit are their rage

the songs added by baghera are their anguish

it's so fucking FASCINATING TO ME but i don't know enough music theory to elaborate lmfao this is Vibes Only

(mouse's songs i can't boil down to an easy noun which is why they aren't mentioned lmao anyway they go hard asf)

(also i went on the longest fucking unhinged elaboration in the tags lmfao i almost didn't have enough tags left to tag "long tags" at the end

(i could have even gone on longer in terms of where their characters were at entering purgatory [philza: cage for a cage; cellbit: fed worker murders; baghera: her past as a federation experiment; slime: turning into a code because of the code pretending to be his daughter] but i ran out of space and also time it's 4AM AAAAA)

#qsmp #qsmp purgatory #this is a sweeping generalization btw esp for baghera's she added a WIDE variety of music #qsmp bolas #sorry i forgot that tag existed lmao #i will elaborate slightly: #slime added: find your flame; gas gas gas extended; waltz of the meatball man; foghorn sound effect #philza added: b.y.o.b.; throne; the melting point of wax #cellbit added: hayloft II; brazilian dança phonk (which roier literally played during purg while beating the shit out of bbh lmao) #baghera added: can you feel my heart; still waiting; and coincidentally she added 'it's been so long' (the fnaf song lol) #TO BE CLEAR THESE ARE GENERALIZATIONS #baghera also added the government knows [REBELLION] and oops [CHAOS] #philza added given up [ANGUISH] #cellbit added zombie [ANGUISH] and tokyo drift [CHAOS] #slime added as above so below [ANGUISH] #it's not a perfect category; ESPECIALLY for baghera's songs i want to make that so clear in these tags #HOWEVER. it is interesting. #anyway i went after lyrics for these examples but just generally when going through the playlist the first time #i kind of learned that like. #music to murder to was probably cellbit; punk millenial music was probably philza #the wackiest shit was probably slime (was shocked to find out tokyo drift was a cellbit song for this reason lmao) #baghera's i usually could only pin down bc it didn't sound like anyone else's #and mouse's added songs i could not describe the vibe if you threatened me for it but it has one #i guess the closest vibe is 'a college radio station run by anime fans' and even then it's not that close #it kinda excludes songs like the b//ad bun//ny songs #unless college anime fans are also fans of them in which case great! #IDK IT'S 4 AM I WAS JUST MAKING MYSELF SAD ABOUT TILIN I NEED TO GO TO SLEEP #shut up vic #block game brainrot #long tags

Hi there! I hope you're doing well!

In your human au, do you imagine Julie and Frank to have a similar relationship to Barnaby and Wally (lifelong platonic partners) or are they more toned down?

In that same vein do you imagine them having something similar in cannon since ik you have your analysis of Julie initially being Frank's love interest, but do you think they can move past that and come back stronger?

Have a great day/night whenever you are 🫶🏽

more toned down, i think! less "i literally cannot imagine a life without you" and more "two stray cats that bonded and are not inseparable". i imagine that Frank & Julie were planning on living in the same town, but they wanted their own living spaces to do with as they please without having to compromise. i like to think that they got neighboring properties - or do they live in the same apartment / condo building? still thinking about everyone's living spaces...

and Yes! i like to adhere to canon as much as possible with my aus. i imagine that when they met in school Julie may have developed a crush on Frank, but has long since grown out of it. and she learned pretty quick that uh... hon... Frank's a lover of men <3

#lmao maybe once julie figures out her gender fluidity #she'll go to frank like 'if i knew then - would you have liked me back?' #and frank has to let her down gently a second time <3 #sorry jules you are Not his type <3 he likes hunky mailmen <3 #julie spotted a depressed emo boy and went Wow! That One Is Mine! #and she was right <3 #like... if they go a full day without seeing each other they'll be sad #but they can handle it yk? they can manage without each other #they enjoy pursuing separate lives but they want to Share that separation over gardening sessions and games #rambles from the bog #wh modern human au #they're best friends! slightly codependent! but they're not at barnaby & wally's level #those two are just. operating in a whole different wheelhouse #regular chess vs 4d chess yk yk #'you are one of - if not The - most important person in my life' vs 'if you die i die' #if you catch my groovy drift... #you have a good day/night As the Case May Be as well!

hi . spoilers for tears of the kingdom (not story related, mostly depths stuff)

imso obsessed. im obsessed with the concept that the depths are a mirrored version of the land it dwells underneath

the secret hot springs in the hebra mountains are caused by lava pools directly underneath their locations in the depths. that means the depths have been here since botw, very likely long before that. i mean, of course the depths have been there, there's thousand-year-old structures there, but still. somehow, the sight of something in the depths causing change on the surface makes u Realize it

the elevation in the depths is mirrored. miles underneath hebra mountain, there is a deep deep valley in the decayed earth. under tanagar canyon is a ridge of risen land. the land that corresponds with the gerudo highlands is low and deep. the bodies of water on the surface are now walls in the depths

the lightroots perfectly match the shrines in location. the lightroot's names are just their corresponding shrines' names backwards. it's a wonderful tool to find shrines u haven't found yet—lightroots are generally easier to discover than hidden shrines, and it's very clear to the player where they have missed one since the map is empty there. get all the lightroots, and you now know where all the shrines are located

the concept that the depths are mirrored is a very unique way of aiding the player in exploration. i've seen a shrine on the surface map, so i flick to the depths map and mark the spot where i know the lightroot will be. i can't see it, though, and upon closer inspection it's because the shrine on the surface is at a lower elevation. given that the depths are mirrored, i now know the lightroot is high up, the glow blocked by a cliff i didn't know was there . that is so cool

i love the depths so much. did any of us expect an entire world underneath hyrule ? was that said in the advertisements or presentations, that there would be a whole other map of content that's not the sky islands? no wonder the game took so long to make. fuck. imgoing crazy

#qktalks #rant over im sorry im just so ill abt this #sike . rant not over i just thought of smth #did the dragons disappear into the skies in botw bc they couldn't go to the depths? #and are they now drifting down there because it's open again and they miss it? #or is it just as new to them and they're exploring just like we are? #are they going down there to ''cleanse'' the place? to see what needs saving? #or are they traversing it to meet the new life they're supposed to protect? #are they going down there because they want to or because they have to? #okay rant over now <3 #tears of the kingdom spoilers #totk spoilers #tears of the kingdom #totk

'i want more morally grey female characters' you fuckers could barely handle sayaka maizono and celestia ludenberg

#to be fair celestia's more 'morally charcoal' than morally grey #but jesus christ the amount of times a fellow sayaka apologist tore down celestia in order to build sayaka up #sayaka maizono was woefully mischaracterised because people demonised her actions #and celestia was woefully mischaracterised because people assume her being a selfish bastard is inherently bad narrative #so many people calling her motive the worst of the bunch when it's one of the BEST #just in the fact that it's a fucking refresher that she's a bastard to the bone #and honestly a realistic one at that #'i want money for my dream and i want to leave the Death School' #and everyone's divided on whether she's a girlboss or failwife (more buzzwords to substitute actual discussion on a female character. FUN!) #meanwhile the conclusion 'she probably is quite intelligent but she's fucking full of cocky hubris' fucking tokyo drifts past everyone #but i fucking laugh every time someone tries to cite celestia's wrongdoing as reason she should be hated #no the bad things celestia does are Based actually

do you think guillermo del toro is aware of what he created when he invented drift compatibility for pacific rim

#it has been ten years and i still think of ships in terms of drift compatibility #like. #i saw the dnd movie and my brain went 'xenk and edgin are 100% drift compatible and edgin hates it' #i watch one piece and i go 'zoro and sanji are drift compatible but nobody wants to listen to them bicker over comms' #'ace and sabo and luffy are a three way drift compatibility like the wei triplets' #though luffy can drift with just about anyone including law who doesn't want to get in a jaeger ever #in other fandoms though like. #zeke and shao are drift compatible #ra ra pilots with booboo #dizzee can theoretically drift with thor but he doesn't want to fight so #anyway i'm gonna stop before i get emo about pacific rim or the get down again

okay i was teetering on the cusp of the DA:I chasm but i'm back now

apparently.... vampire sex. was what i needed. to step back from the beckoning abyss

gale baby you're so real for this, you were so right that time in the swamp, dick really DO be that good sometimes that it makes you wanna live

#squirrel plays bg3 #oc: iona raedir #yeeeesh i did do The Boy's personal quest on my romance run today #yes Iona did get thoroughly Mary Shelley'd #and i think my writing mojo was also brought back by it a lil #first night back? gentle nonsexual intimacy of holding him in the tub and washing his abuser's blood out of his hair #then tucking him into her bed and letting him sleep #truly sleep; not meditate but genuinely drift into restorative slumber #atop her breast and in her arms until his eyes stop fluttering and whimpers die down into soft (adorable) snores #second night back? she's getting absolutely fucking railed into next week #but. like. sweetly. lovingly y'know. #what MATTERS is that whether it's the horrible crick in her neck from holding him all night #or.... other reasons #Iona is going to be walking a bit funny for the next few days #(i feel like my go-to for these is just to say they gave the coinpurse to Karlach and trusted her to keep everyone off the premises) #(I feel like she'd be an excellent wingwoman no matter what) #(only while Arvid is a bit discreet a bit more subtle) #(Iona is more like “listen- you don't want to be upstairs for what's about to happen. I still have grave dirt in my asscrack.”) #(“and if that's any indication of the kind of ravishing i'm about to get; we might as well call for new sheets now”) #(and Karlach is just like “I cannot decide whether that's hot or gross; respect”)

I see people getting enthusiastic about the player polycule but will they still be there when I'll start talking about JoshBeat, BeatShiki and Joshiki? not so sure. a shame since those three ships are extremely interesting as well

#you might tell me. but Léa they don't interact a lot! in fact Shiki and Joshua never interacted at all! how can we be there for that? #MY FRIENDS. i don't care <3 #the important part is the POTENTIAL of the dynamic!! what you can create!! #JoshBeat? the funny potential is too powerful here. it could be literally anything. #Beat is just too easy to mess with and Joshua certainly won't hesitate #but tbh i'm also a big fan of the idea of two characters who don't like to show weakness #(Beat because he believes he has to be strong to protect Rhyme) #(And joshua because... it's Joshua. he likes being in control of everything and showing weakness is not being in control #it requires trust. trust in the one you're with that they won't use that weakness against you. trust that they'll help you. #that they won't push you further down.) #and i dunno. the idea of these two trusting eachother enough to be vulnerable with eachother #it's so soft and cute. i love it #BeatShiki? can we talk about beatshiki for a sec. they're so sweet. remember how they immediately became friends when they met? #Beat hating Neku's guts but still accepting to help them because it was for Shiki? #the wait? the wait during 3 years as they were the closest ones from Neku #drifting apart to the point that Beat doesn't recognise Mr Mew anymore? what happened? #the idea of being different but wanting the same thing. aiming for the same goal. sharing something despite these differences #being brought together by that similarity despite everything else and sticking together because they're the only one who get you #they're the only one who knows what it's like to lose someone like Neku. to not know where he is. to wait or look for him everyday #joshiki? did you guys forget how Shiki was the one to ever break Neku's shell of self-isolation against the world? #and how much this characteristic of Neku is paralleled with Joshua? #don't you think it would be interesting to have her meet him? see how much she could change him? #also it would be funny af to have Shiki (extremely easily flustered person) and Joshua (big flirt) interact. you cannot disagree. #it would be hilarious. anyway i'm very normal about these three ships as you can see #léa rambles #twewy #hachicule #beatshiki #joshiki #joshbeat

just having natsuyuu thoughts on this totally fine thursday night~~

#natsuyuu the og hw childhood friends to lovers ship <3333 #they may not be the first cec ship to be established but they sure were the first to get together in an mv!!!!!! #timeline-wise i think they were like. the 2nd og couple to start dating? first was midosena. then them. then mochiaka. and t h en harucouple #idk say what you will about the hw animation projects in general but the autumn session mv s l a ps #and like!!! this scene in particular has been looping in the bg of my mind for like. eve r #idk there’s just something really sweet about childhood friends walking down the metaphorical path of life together side by side… #staying next to each other even as they drift apart… only to link back up even closer than ever (as lovers) #s o what im saying is that i want to see this but nghy— #i s w e a r looking for nghy crumbs these days is like trying to look for seashells on a man-made beach before the waves wash ‘em away #even looking up nghy on the former birdsite leads to more complains from nghy antis than nghy posts……. #though it’s actually surprisingly effective at weeding out people to block lmaoooo #it’s soooo strange how the most vocal nghy antis alwaysss end up being lhy shippers who only ship lxl with hiyoko and never with each other… #but i digress. anyways natsuyuu the world congratulations happy to them and their many wedding portrayals in the novels and spring session

dean 10000% has confessed his love to cas in the shower

#the first day they get into the bunker and dean can fianlly get a nice and warm shower #his shoulders relax and the water feels warm agonist his skin #and he sways there for a moment and before he realizes it his mind drifts to cas #and that thought leads elsewhere #and it ends with him on the floor of the shower #water turned cold #sobbing #johns words still sting all these years later and the heat just reminds him of that #“why did it have to be cas” he cries into his knees knowing more than anything he has ever known that he wouldn’t have it be anyone else #“i love you so much it hurts” #“i wish you would want me. i wish i could have you” #he stays there #dreaming of some world where cas appears in front of him #hearing his confession turned prayer and holds him close #but the water turns off and there is no angel to be found #guess that dream will have to wait #sorry just rambling about them #like the thought of dean writing down all his feelings for cas one drunk night and just burning it or something #idk idk #destiel #dean winchester

been vibing very hard lately with the half-drow bard I made in BG3 a couple days ago 'cause I built the character around the idea of "what if a Tav with a chronic illness, but the brainworm made them (mostly) better"

#BG3 #not a self insert in most ways but there's some wish fulfillment in that specific core ngl #I say 'mostly better' because I knocked their CON score down to 8 lol #but that's still an improvement over my probable score of 3 irl #but I'm just... enjoying the idea of this Tav still doing their best to be the party's moral compass #while having very similar temptations to Astarion around finding a way to control the worm rather than getting rid of it #they also have... a lot of neglect trauma and feel like while people want them around NOW #most would probably either drop them instantly or drift away if they lost the worm and went back to being disabled as fuck #anyway yes I am making like 500 different characters that will all romance Astarion don't @ me

He won't leave my fucking friends alone.

#tales from diana #sorry this is about that bad friend i have to break up w that ive posted abt on and off the past couple weeks/months maybe #i still have to send him that final 'i dont wanna speak to you ever again' #ive been fucking busy ok. my summer has been full of family events and obligations #i have one brother getting married and the other having a baby!!! i have a LIFE and SHIT TO DO and PPL TO BE THERE FOR other than YOU!!! #i havent spoken to him in over 2 months too and he knows it's bc i don't want to #he's so difficult bc you can't fucking tell him the truth. you can't!!! he can't handle it!!! do you know how hard it is to handle??? #the things i have to do to cut him off. because he doesn't respect normal fucking boundaries. make ME feel like im in the wrong #like im the shady person and the liar. #i can't drift from him bc hell pull me back #i can't communicate w him bc he won't hear anything i have to say he'll just turn it around & make it abt himself. #he literally does not understand ppl having motivations to do things that don't relate to him #and he has no sympathy for what he does to other ppl. nothing but self-pity for how they don't like him anymore. #if he dealt w someone who put him through half of what he put ME through. no he couldn't actually. #i only allowed him to manipulate me for so long because i cared abt him. who i thought he was. #and he just point blank period doesn't care about other ppl. so he could never go through what ive gone through w him. #i feel like all this friend breakup has proven to me is that im actually a good person and it can be used against me by ppl who arent #some fucking lesson i needed to learn huh? #i hate feeling as negatively towards anyone as i do towards him. it's so hard for me not to have at least #a little spark of hope deep down for everyone. even ppl ive removed from my life before. i dont HATE them #theyve disappointed me or insulted me or mistreated me but at least their motivations seemed simple and clear #and MOST of them seemed to understand SOMEWHAT that they were in the wrong #even if they don't admit it to me or still find an excuse to hate me. whatever #i can see them as ppl who might feel remorse someday and grow from it #i do not see it in this guy. bc if you have a problem w him he'll only make it 20 times worse. #he's so selfish it genuinely baffles me to think about it. and he's one of the least honest ppl ive ever known. #he'll never see the error of his ways. i do not believe he has that capacity. #and will i say none of this to him? no #im just going to say thanks for leaving me alone these past couple months. it's been good for me. #i don't think i can continue our friendship anymore for my own sake.

unrelated, but when i say lxc should get to bite people/go apeshit/start killing, i don’t quite mean literally! it’s a mix of fandom frustration with everyone and their grandma and her cat accusing lxc of being too soft, too trusting, too easily manipulated into forgiving jgy everything, etc, etc, when he wasn’t like that at all but just wanted answers that he would have gotten If Not For Certain Events That I Won’t Mention Here, and Some Circles criticizing him for being “mean” to wwx (a cardinal sin) -- and... well. frustration with wgxn fucking off to fuck in the bushes for months and delighting in the lack of information about what’s happening in the jianghu. when lxc was Like That, and then, when wgxn were back, Still Struggling. and i obviously know he wouldn’t, not before being absolutely forced to, but god sometimes i do wish there was a fic in which he got a chance to just go... Hey Wangji But You Know That It* Wasn’t Cool, Right

*all of the above, plus wgxn withholding jgy-related information from him post-guanyin, plus wgxn urging him not to listen to jgy in the temple and acting as though jgy has manipulated lxc like a child with no mind of his own, plus wgxn barging into his life like “hey we think your friend killed your other friend. source: trust us. why aren’t you trusting us? cmon zwj be reasonable”, etc, etc

#he can even cry as he says this! in fact i think it's a plus #i'm a bastard for this but i'm really interested in the concept of like. wwx&jc paradoxically getting closer by the end of the story #and lxc&lwj just. drifting apart because of how much they Cannot understand each other anymore #lwj... clearly chose. and while i don't think it's the case of 'oooh he choose wwx and Freedom over stupid and stuffy sect rules!' #he nonetheless... doesn't have the same Insight into lxc's thoughts and feelings that lxc has (had?) into his #and yeah he seems concerned with lxc's wellbeing and i guess mxtx wanted to write about wgxn being happy post-canon rather than #the lan brothers' misery but even so. 'they couldn't try fucking upside down because lwj had to visit his secluded brother' #is how it looks like. idk #anyway #shrimp thoughts

WHAT THE HELL NOBODY EVER TOLD ME TWO OF MY FAVE VILLAGERS GOT A LINE STICKER TOGETHER. ive loved tabby for YEARS like since 2019 at LEAST. and these stickers are from 2018 how did i not know !!! i love tabby and boots so much 😭😭😭 TABBY AND BOOTS ANIMAL CROSSING I LOVE YOU SO MUCHHHHH OOMFS FOREVER AND EVER
