If your parents don't intentionally make a lot of noise while you're asleep, are they really your parents?

[ID: a digital drawing of Dr. Carmilla holding a bloody knife, with hands forming a broken halo around her head. Dr. Carmilla is a vampire, a woman of color with short red hair, wearing a white kimono with pink flowers, and a black vest. She is looking at the viewer with intense glare, and half her face is dark. In one hand she holds a bloodied tantō knife, defensively, and in the other hand she holds a silver cane. Around her head there is a broken golden halo, held by the Mechanisms' hands. Clockwise, the hands are: Ivy Alexandria, Ashes O'Reilly, the Toy Soldier, Nastya Rasputina, and Drumbot Brian. Some hands hold the halo with a flat palm, while others appear to be reaching to Carmilla. There is another hand grasping Carmilla by the sleeve of her kimono, Jonny D'Ville's. The grasp is aggressive, but there is golden light of the halo shining from his fist. The background is dark, the halo casts golden light on Carmilla. End ID]
Dr. Carmilla the love of my life <3
Wanted to finish this for the last day of @drcarmillaappreciationweek but alas I was struck by the demons. This piece was originally part of the "mechs with swords" series that never saw the light of day, but this one specifically I loved a lot, so I'm happy I had an excuse to finish it.

Does it say anything that my 2-year-old niece, who has never seen Voltron a day in her life & has no idea what Klance is, will take my Keith & Lance Funko Pops or action figures & have them kiss?

OH I meant to make a post about this yesterday and then I forgot but I went over to my sister’s house to bring my niece her birthday presents and of course my niece wanted to show me all her new toys and play with them with me. I don’t mind doing this, in fact I actively enjoy playing with her because she’s a good storyteller and I know she loves having someone that will listen to her. Anyway, she brought out some slime and my stomach just straight up DROPPED. Yall I can’t STAND touching slime, like it makes every part of my body want to crawl up inside of itself, I just can’t do it. So I told her I couldn’t touch it and why and she stopped for a second and goes “you can’t touch it?” And I was like “no I can’t touch it, I don’t like the way it feels and it makes me upset to be touched with it.” And she nodded and set down her little jar for a second and was like “hold on” and dug under her bed and pulled out a little plastic horse and handed it to me and says “you can touch it with this!” It kind of rocked me because I mean of course that was a solution, and it was a fantastic one, I just didn’t expect her to understand and offer an alternative way to play so quickly! And it worked great! I didn’t have to touch the slime, and using the little horse was fun to roll and poke it with. We didn’t have to stop playing just because I didn’t like something, she figured out a way to let me play with her anyway. So I guess my thing is like, tell kids exactly why you do or don’t want to do something. You may need to explain it a couple of times, or in a different way, but they get it. And they will find a solution.

Sometimes I think there are certain parts of Wolf 359 that feel so familiar to me that I almost forget what they are like the first time round.
Like, I've just been thinking about how in the finale, after Minkowski gets shot, we don't hear any noise from her all through Cutter's gloating speech. We hear her gasp as the bullet hits and the show immediately cuts away to a different scene. Then when we rejoin the confrontation with Cutter, we don't hear Minkowski make any noise - not even a groan of pain or a laboured breath - for over a minute. And because it's an audio drama, this means that we don't have any direct indication of just how injured she is, of whether she's fully conscious, of whether she's even still alive. Lovelace's reactions can't tell us much while she's struggling against Cutter's control. And I wouldn't put it past Cutter to gloat to someone unconscious.
The first noise we do hear Minkowski make after being shot in the stomach - the first proof we have that she's still with us - is her gathering her strength and declaring "Renée Minkowski... and that is more than enough to kick your ass!", before punching Cutter. Which is always an incredibly powerful moment. But there's a particular power to it when it also serves as the reveal that Minkowski is still conscious and able to put up resistance. The moment when she asserts her ownership of her own identity feels almost like a moment of rising from the potentially-dead.

Vet: oh, did you bring her in because she has a little cold?
Me: no, she’s just like that

Problem of thinking too far into the Kopaka And Pohatu Get Fucking Fleshed AU is that writing wise they have yet to figure out how to speak without having to curse twelve times in a sentence to get a phoneme right, but mentally i have gotten to an arc which can only be described as "Pohatu quietly stands around as he discovers the Great Beings want to punch Velika just as hard as he does but unfortunately theyre too freaked out by the fact he can form thoughts to even just approach him without shaking uncontrollably let alone join forces with him to beat Velika to death"
