#It did not age perfectly

They should just make the F1 movie like Talladega Nights. Made with love, but makes fun of the source material. And they can try and do the same achievement

The MTV best kiss award

#It did not age perfectly #but its still fun #For the 2000's Jean Girard is not bad gay representation #He is in a happy marriage #can win in a Minardi #very skilled #he's not even a bad guy #just want to retire with his husband and do rich people things #in fact he is one of the nicer characters #talladega nights #f1 #f1 movie

Lahan introduces Maomao to his roommate (who is popular enough that everyone but Maomao knows of becuase Maomao thinks chemistry is much more attractive than some mortal man).

SPOILERS: I feel like Zuigetsu would be his real name, but I think he would do some sort of modelling/ acting job on the side with the name "Jinshi", so everyone calls him that. But neither Maomao nor Lahan really look at media much since they both don't really know how to use tech, so the siblings know him as Ka Zuigetsu.

Jinshi might be doing some sort of economics/ finance/ stats degree, but I can also see him being a history or social sciences student of sorts. The poor humanities student just getting dragged into the business of the stem siblings.

Of course, Lahan is obsessed with Jinshi's looks (and may or may not be actively pushing his sister and his roommate to get closer).

#Jinshi thinks the siblings are very similar #Jinshi is actually the comparatively messy roommate because Lahan wants to keep everything perfectly aligned and clean #Maomao has the same initial impression of Jinshi as she did in the original story - he kind of irks her. #Jinshi and Lahan are the same age #maomao #rahan #lahan #jinshi #jinmao #light novel spoilers #kusuriya maomao #kusuriya no hitorigoto #the apothecary diaries #la clan

What led to this (orufrey comic, cw an uncomfortable/creepy scene)

#witch hat tag #orufrey #er.... i'm too tired to have anything to say..i worked several days on this. #wait.. didn't i say just recently here that i probably wouldn't ever depict 'what if alaira is qifrey's sort-of ex'. What's going on #i don't even remember deciding to draw this..it's all a blur..i'm not sure why i WOULD decide to draw delicate scenes in my head #that i wouldn't really want to share with anyone/discuss so why did i draw it... #some part of me really really wants to draw things that are more and more true to myself... #maybe because of my alienation with most romance/shipping/dynamics the rest of the world depicts. #orufrey really is perfectly suited to me - what i read in the text and what is in my head. well anyway #i am TIRED of drawing poses and angles and..maybe now i will actually take a break from drawing bc of the tediousness of Angles #btw it really is a 'stretch of time' . . . assuming witches graduate age 18-20 #well orufrey are canonically 30-ish. they've only had agott around for presumably about TWO years (?) bc she took the test age 10 #and it feels like oru moving in/unknown atelier acquisition/building (?) .. i guess that could be a year or so before agott at most #(she was the first disciple) so... ????????? What about the other 7 or so years ?!?!?!!?!?! Unemployed Brimhat Hatred era #that time is very nebulous. after qifrey went to the tower i feel like it's been implied he and oru drifted apart a little. #certainly they didn't live together at first... no way. that doesn't feel like how it is based on things oru has said about becoming Eye #idk. I'm tired now. i don't usually think of alaira as necessarily qifrey's ex and this being how things went in that 'sliver of time'. #i usually prefer the idea that they have their first kiss with each other in their 30s cause That's Just The Orufrey Lifestyle #just felt like making a more relatable alternative view of my own Cai Orufrey Canon one time. btw im a big monoshipper and it hurt a bit #let's leave it there. this is surely the most i've worked on a 'single' art - though now i realise just how much longer the fic took :')

I'm seeing a lot of people with neurodivergency, specially under the autism spectrum say that "Laios is annoying, never shuts up, is insensitive, and I can't stand him"; and the irony is not lost on me lmao.

#like im sorry dude did you think all autism is “anime obsessed dude”? #how did you think neurodivergent people behaved on old times? #also like #being unintentionally insensitive is almost a telltale sign of autism cause you struggle with social cues #if anything i think a lot of you are finally habing to face your own internalized predjudices #“he is annoying” yes that's how ableist neurotypical people talk about us all the time tell me something i haven't heard already #like how do i explain to you that a lot of neurotypical people tal the exact same eay youre talkbing about laios #and is annoying when they go “but im neurodivergent! i can be biased agaisnt neurodivergent people” #yes you can because being neurodivergent is not a monolith and you are mistifying being neurodivergent #by implying theres some sort of virtue in being under the spectrum when youre as capable of being a dick just as everyone else #like you think you have autism but suddenly wanting to taste things youre not supposed to eat and not remembering peoples names is too much? #some of yall never experienced beinf a “weird kid” at a young age and it shows #and im not talking the “geek bullied” weird kid kinda way #im talking “the adults think I'm weird amd don't know how to deal with me” #WHICH FITS LAIOS PERFECTLY BECAUSE WE ACTUALLY HAVE A SCENE OF HIS DAD SHOWING HIM FALLIN AS A BABY #AND NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY IS THERE NO EXPECTED REACTION FROM LAIOS #anyways im making this rant because is unreal how many posts of this exist #you think Laios is annoying cause he wont shut up? #congratulations thats how most people see us #now get over it or watch other series if you hate it that much #dunmeshi hell thoughts #weird rant i suppose #dungeon meshi #laios touden

the thing about the the karate kid is that it knew exactly what kind of film it wanted to be, what it wanted to say and how it wanted to say it, and it executed that perfectly. And the problem with cobra kia is that it doesn’t seem to know what it wants to be, what it wants to say, how it wants to say it. so there’s no possible way for it to successfully execute anything, really.

#and its why season one was so good. because it did have a clear vision and it executed that perfectly! and then they just. got lost a bit #and psrt of that unfortunately is not just the nature of television but specifically the nature of television in the age of streaming. #its always push push push get out as much content possible as fast as possible #and it doesn’t leave room for actually thoughtfully developing a story #cobra kai

I edited @okruee's miscellaneous face details in the occult and skin details section so that they work for infants now. (I saw an anon asked, and they gave permission to edit them.)

You can download them from Google Drive HERE. I'll delete this when Rue is able to update! ❤️

The plot of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is actually better than original plot, by a large margin

#not only did we get so much more ramona screentime & growth but I actually really liked that everyone lived & changed & grew #also the handling of scott & ramona's relationship feels way more healthy. also the show was SO QUEER omg it was great #I love roxie lmao shame she & kim didn't work out. wallace was kind of a bigger scumbag but I loved him finding his own sparkle at the end #also julie? me. I look similar & constantly swear constantly. she was hilarious & her x gordon was really funny #ramona's green hair look is what I wish my hair always looked like. OH ALSO RAMONA CHOOSING HERSELF? I LOVED IT #but yeah like. this rewrite helped the story age better imo. appreciate all the constant criticism of scott dating a high schooler in his #20s like finally it's addressed as fucked. lucas lee tho lmao “she's actually 31!” #anyway excellent show 10/10 animation was so fluid. the art style matched the comic perfectly. the story was a fun & refreshing spin #scott pilgram takes off #scott pilgram vs the world #scott pilgrim #ramona flowers #tc posts

I did a costest of Mairon today (and an impromptu Almaren-era look, because why not) -- he's ready for con! I'm really happy with how he looks and too excited to wait to share photos until I'm done editing, so have some unedited shots plus two quick memes & the last thing you see when you dare imply Melkor might have not done nothing wrong XD

Inspiration for the memes came from this amazing poll by @kanafinwe-makalaure.

Edit: Ahaha okay this got A LOT more attention than I anticipated, for being just some test shots and silliness ^^; I usually don't include costume credits in costest photo dump posts, only on finished photos, but now I feel like I need to include them here too, so here you go: Wig: Arda Wigs (Grace, in "Fire Orange") Contacts: Uniqso (Sweety Crazy Red Demon Eye) Ears: Aradani Costumes (Sun Elf Ears) Circlet: PernCirclets (on Etsy) Gorget: Crystalsidyll (on Etsy) Gauntlets: Jadekei (on Etsy) Leather armor: LederFantasies (on Etsy) Fangs: Scarecrow (Small Deluxe Fangs) Gloves, dress base, and finger armor are mass-produced/store-bought; shirt is my own. I'm honestly shocked at the reception and everyone's really kind and supportive words! ♡♡♡

#mairon #sauron #cosplay #silmarillion #tolkien #i did different makeup for almaren mairon (gold/light orange) and first age mairon (red + bright orange) #but i don't think you can really tell ^^; #i wish my apartment had better lighting and a good spot for a full length mirror but alas T_T #i work with what i have #i should also probably invest in an actual camera at this point... #he's just as perfectly uncomfortable to wear as i expected lmao #but i can't wait to take him out in public all the same ♡ #silm #hira cosplays mairon

Because I've seen this decently often this week, Dancer DID actually do significant work on FCG. What she said she didn't do was create or modify FCG's personality and said that significantly reworking existing "old shit" is beyond her. But she is very much a skilled tinker, she did repair them to working condition, and that work is a big factor in what brought FCG "online" out of dormancy.

She is very honest, both in the first conversation and in this latest one, that a lot of FCG's craftwork and Age of Arcanum enchantment work is beyond her ability to radically alter or grasp, but she did reconnect and restore FCG best of her ability. It's a very competent job seeing FCG's physical state!

The last time we saw Dancer in 3.32, she says "I took a lot of pride managing to getting him back to whatever he was," and she later has an extended discussion of what she did to get FCG online:

Imogen: How did you get them back online? Dancer: Oh, weeks of tinkering. There was something there, there was a hum. It wasn't like they were broken. They were just dormant. They were just, there was something. There was something. Imogen: Yeah, we're thinking about opening them up. Getting a real good look at everything in there, but didn't want to damage it, you know? Dancer: Just be careful, you know? If you see anything that glows, don't pull it out. Imogen: Oh, there's glowing stuff? Dancer: Oh yeah. Old, you know, energy centers and power cores that keep most automatons going. It's part of their initial design, but even me tinkering around, this was old shit. Imogen: Really? Dancer: Yeah. No, this was craft far beyond anything I've never seen. So I didn't mess with much because I didn't want to mess it up. Imogen: Did you have to replace anything? Dancer: No, no replacement. Just more like things were dislodged a little bit. [...] So I just figure out where to reconnect them. Then all of a sudden one day, we had FCG.

She later says about FCG's personality:

FCG: How? Where? Who do I ask? How much of me is me, and how much did you put on? Dancer: (sighs) I put on very little. You came out pretty much like this. Though you seemed to take to my voice a little bit and mimic me slightly, but I mean, you came out cheerful. (chuckles) FCG: You didn't set me to be? Dancer: I didn't set you to do anything. I just woke you up.

Taking all that, understanding, reverse engineering, and reworking Age of Arcanum tech is beyond her capability—and she admitted as much to the group after looking at the harness. However, she DID repair FCG, and her work is a significant factor in bringing FCG out of dormancy.

#Like! I wanted them to talk to D as well but this is NOT the a factor! Dancer DID contribute a lot of work to FCG. #Dancer didn't do NOTHING #Stop trashing Dancer because you wanted her to talk to D! #Just say that you wanted to talk to a new NPC or hoped talking to D would get new Age of Arcanum / FCG lore! #That's why *I* wanted to talk to D! Dancer is perfectly competent! #Critical Role things #CR spoilers

Unmasked Genji ADHD fueled rambling so prepare for random ideas not really organized

I've seen quite a lot of stuff trying to figure out what Genji looks like without his mask on and what Hanzo actually did to him.

My personal opinion is what we see in the dragon cinematic isn't just what Hanzo did to his face because in the black watch skin and comics etc his face is like untouched. It appears like Hanzo during his attacks went for his torso and neck primarily, cutting his arm probably really deeply about mid bicep to the point it would have to be amputated due to blood loss, and losing his legs as well to blood loss, and considering Genji has stuff on the front and back of his neck my guess is that Hanzo tried to make it as quick as possible and full on stabbed Genji through the neck not decapitating him but like that should have killed him. It would also explain why he's got a robotic voice because if he was stabbed through the neck it probably damaged his vocal cords and he's got what appears to me a cybernetic spine at least on his neck so that was probably also damaged during that.

And apart from just other assorted scarring from light cuts and other smaller injuries from Hanzo's attack, he's a trained assassin who is trained to kill as quick as possible, so their fight probably didn't last that long considering we can assume Genji was unarmed (both in the way of he didn't have a weapon and he lost the arm). And he would have no reason to go for genji's face during an attack like that.

Like legitimately the biggest injuries that I think Hanzo did take Angie was a slash across his chest which cut deep enough to injure his arm very badly but not deep enough to actually reach his heart or anything, and then damage to his neck. With the rest being more surface level scrapes which could have been patched up with stitches which would leave scarring pretty badly but nothing insane.

But since we know his face is decently burned and scarred by the time the dragon cinematic happens my theory is that either during one of the last black watch missions if there was one after the mission during retribution. Or what I mainly think happened, when the Swiss base exploded, Genji could have been in that building when the thing exploded which would explain the burning and scarring on his face and presumably other parts of his body. And if Cassidy was still in OverWatch at that point that could explain how he lost his arm because I'm pretty sure it's confirmed Bob did not rip his arm off. Because we know the explosion "killed" Gabriel Reyes and Jack Morrison, and it would make sense why after the explosion where genji's remaining body got damaged even more so he couldn't deal with everything going on in his head associated with his body that he would leave to try and come to terms with his body or find peace in some way.

And if the injuries happened in black watch before the explosion, I could explain why he got the new armor for the storm rising missions when he was transferred to the main OverWatch team. They had to fix more stuff and realized it wasn't safe for him to have any fleshy human parts still exposed so they made him a new safer suit.

That's just my thoughts anyways in a very rambly fashion.

Also I am surprised that in the future they don't have something that can reduce scarring, and if they do have that thing even though now genji's come to terms with his body I wouldn't be surprised if he did go through with the reducing scarring thing primarily on his face or anywhere of high mobility because (correct me if I'm wrong) areas that are highly scarred are often a lot tighter, so not even aesthetically would it be a better option but for quality of life even just minorly reducing the scarring might just make things a little less painful. Also along the same lines probably have something to help hair growth considering stuff we have now for that which isn't much but there is something and considering how advanced science is in the universe it would not surprise me in the slightest if they had those things.

Also also Genji showing Hanzo his face partially where it's so scarred and burned and everything was slightly a jerk move because Hanzo didn't cause the burning on his face, so showing that without explaining at least a little bit that "oh don't worry you didn't do this" is a little mean but I'm pretty sure Hanzo would remember not burning his face so at the same time it isn't.

Anyways that concludes my rambling for the minute, if anyone reads this thank you for enduring my chaotic train of thought.

#overwatch #genji #overwatch 2 #genji shimada #hanzo shimada #hanzo #overwatch lore #unmasked genji #I really wish they would add a skin with genji's face currently #so we would have a “he does look like this but still draw him how you want” kinda thing #it would also just be really funny if they did have some sort of scarring treatment thing and his face was just perfectly fine now #nowhere near realistic it would just be super funny in my opinion #just young Genji face with cybernetics #I also recently found out the young Genji and sparrow skins are meant to be Genji around age 20 to 21 #so Genji would have the worst case of chronic baby face because it literally would be the same forever #we know mercy's healing tech has altered her physical aging process through her interactions woth mei #so I wonder if genji's exposure to it has also altered his aging process physically #this also does not change my head cannon that Genji has a raccoon tan from black watch #because there's no way you can wear a mask like that without getting one

I was re-listening season one while waiting for the newest episode and when they were speaking with The Lance in episode one Darryl says:

“Henry, who would be scared of the doodler?”

And

…oh boy Darryl

you have no idea.

#that aged like milk #or did it tho? #I think it aged perfectly actually #idk it fits that little subversion of expectations #or rather the taking of a symbol that represented the kids as a team and it’s all cute and fun (and actually a bit ugly) #and turning it into an eldritch horror chaos god #AND now in season two our boy the doodler is maybe finally going to stop being hated and feared and misunderstood by normal :) #and of course the rest of the gang #I hope #dungeons and daddies #dndads #dndaddies #dndads s2 #dndads s1

One of the things I love about DT17 Scrooge McDuck as a character is the way that his entire youth is one long traumatic backstory about the evils of capitalism and much of his adulthood is a trauma response.

Except that he’s COMPLETELY IGNORANT of it. Like, “Oh yeah, I had to start working as a shoeshine boy at ten and leave home at twelve to move across the world with only a sixth-grader’s education and get a job working on my uncle’s steamboat, it was a real adventure! And my addiction to money and my desperate need to teach my family self-reliance while also providing them with the moon and stars definitely has nothing to do with that! Yes I’ve been using the same teabag for three weeks, why do you ask?”

#ducktales #dt17 #scrooge mcduck #I am of the firm belief that Scrooge mentally reframes his traumatic childhood as adventures as a coping mechanism #and that's why he's so bad at guessing what is and isn't safe for kids #Oh the kids will be fine I did this at their age and it was perfectly safe! #no it wasn't scrooge you were just a homeless child laborer!
