how is it anyone's business what you decide to post? it's your blog, if anon or anyone else don't like, there's this magical thing called the unfollow button. fucking morons.

Yeah it's not the first time I've gotten asks like that (and won't be the last) and that's exactly what I say, "unfollow!" It really is that simple. It's the entitlement for me. Demanding someone to do something on their own blog bitch you better be joking. It's partially my fault because for the longest time this blog was primarily a taylor swift blog when I first started it, so I gained a lot of my followers that way but I'm also no longer 18 and have more interests than Taylor now. Also I made this blog my primary blog (aka multi fandom) in 2019/2020 so it's been years since I've been purely 100% taylor lol. To say that all my other edits 'fall to the wayside' aka flop is so funny. I have shrek gifsets that have 50k LMAO

#i would say i have more taylor edits that flop than not #and also i don't post gifs FOR notes #clearly i post them to share my interests and it's disheartening if something doesn't get a lot #but i also know going in if i'm posting an obscure fandom or an obscure ship #it most likely won't get a lot of notes #like bates motel for ex. i gifed norma knowing the set wouldn't get a lot of notes because i lOVE HER #does that make any sense #i've mostly been posting stranger things edits the last week or so cause it's FUN #i've been having FUN editing and playing around in photoshop #i've been having fun playing around with mask layers and colors and typogrpahy!!!#and i want to share that growth yk?#sure like i said if something doesn't get a lot of notes i'm like that sucks #but for now i'm really enjoying gifing and it's not going to deter me from posting #just because i don't think it'll get notes #/// that has been the case BEFORE because burnout is legit #but i have a full notes app with ideas of gifsets so i'm having fun regardless if something gets a ton of notes #funnily enough i actually feel pressured to make taylor edits which makes me not want to make them #so jokes on anons they played themselves #anyways didn't mean to ramble on #but as you guys are aware. it happens.

For the gif makers ask meme... 14, 16, 34, and 48?

[ask meme link]

14. How long does it usually take you to make a set

for real, while technically i can make a gifset within a day or a few, i have a nasty tendency to procrastinate everything, literally everything, even stuff i actually enjoy. and when i do get around to actually making sth i overthink it. sometimes for months. yup. lbr overthinking (alongside chronic lack of spoons) is the main reason i create stuff so rarely and post it even rarer even if i have it finished for a while. i'm trying to improve, okay..? just gonna kick myself more often into calling things finished and posting them, i literally have dozens of gifset ideas waiting to be executed, several art wips (as well as finished pieces), two videoedit ideas, and quite a few k words of both fic and meta… the tricky part is just to get around to all of it

16. How long have you been making gifs

oof lemme see… in June 2020 i made my first gifs that weren't completely horrible cuz before that i was using merely a phone app for this with video editing software (this and this were made this way). and then in February 2021 i finally figured out what was missing from my PS and preventing me from editing gifs there and fixed it. so yeah, i've been relatively new to this, i guess..? though ngl the experience of very spontaneously making two videoedits before trying out proper gifing was a nice starting point

34. A set that took you a long time/was really hard but you’re really proud of how it came out

hm the stardust one is the first that came to mind even though it's more the case of "it didn't receive as much attention as most my other cql gifsets but i'm still quite fond of it" rather than it being particularly time/effort-consuming. not to mention that i'm hardly ever actually proud of anything i create but well, that's just my brain cockroaches messing stuff up. back on track, the WWX gifs in the trust parallel set were a pain to edit but eventually i ended up learning new tricks while groping my way around it so i'm not complaining

okay, if i were really to pick a gifset i'm proud of that'd be the ripples one, no doubts (gonna add the link once i actually finish and post it, i promise). it's the most advanced technically (don't even ask me how long i've been nitpicking it from all directions and how i'm still tempted to drop the current version in favor of approaching it from a whole new direction bc surely it can be done way way better if i just go nitpick it some more! ya know, the usual overthinking) and it's sth very personal to me thematically. the underlying meaning of it is too closely related to liminal spaces (or more like what i simplify as "liminal spaces" as i suspect my own understanding of this concept in general can differ quite a bit from that of other people) so putting it into actual words gets tricky. but this kinda comes with the territory so nothing unusual

48. How would you describe your giffing style

ugh honestly idek if i have one..? for real, i don't think there's anything about my gifs that makes them stand out much. at least there surely isn't anything that i deliberately make sure to integrate every single time (maybe i do unconsciously though, who knows). so i feel like it's more for others to judge ¯_(ツ)_/¯

what i can say is that when i do make gifsets i apparently tend to illustrate some narrative parallels or sth with them..? or just combine scenes with a quote that strikes me with fitting vibes. or both. also i like to have fun with the colors and lighting and use adjustment layers quite heavily (but gotta admit it's hardly an option to halfass this if i wanna my Yi City gifs to look vibrant and alive enough). i suppose alternative subtitles to all my cql sets are a feature of my so called style as well since i always translate them myself instead of going the easy way and copying any of the already existing ones. which is also fun! even if, well, adds to the amount of time and spoons i put into it but what can i say, it's a matter of habit by now

#Liam whispers into the void #the void whispers back to Liam #ebonykain #ask games #creativity #gifing #yeah i'm still (somewhat) alive here #me? replying to an ask game for once? more likely than you think #and than *i* think tbh #should do sth about the other ones as well actually but hopefully i'll do it sooner rather than later #also feeling like this came out longer than anyone would probably wanna see so sorry for that i got rambly #but this doesn't look long enough to warrant the long post tag. correct me if i'm wrong though #anyway thank you Ebony for sending the ask and prompting me to at least *think* in the creative direction! it's really appreciated💜#ngl was considering posting this once i post the ripples gifset but knowing me this can get postponed for another year so NOPE #now or never #should finish that one as well though #upd: feels ironic to answer a gifmaking meme and not know how to properly add someone else's gif to the post #i thought it'd look right once i hit post but no. not enough at least #looks like i gotta settle at this cuz i can't think rn of how else to do it

has anyone gifed the bees makeout scene?

I don't know if you're looking for anything specific, but I did make this.

Wait. I need a moment to process that you can say "the Bees makeout scene" and I'm able to think "Yes, that is a thing that exists in canon." Fucking wild.

I actually don't really like how that gif of the Bees making out turned out because I wanted to keep their full bodies to see Blake's little leg pop, but I also didn't want to drastically change the aspect ratio. And now they're tragically smaller than I would have wanted because the details of the movements of them making out is. A lot.

Wait. Let me just.

Make this real quick for myself because I want to stare forever at how into it they got. This loop is also just really fun.

And also their reactions after realizing the others are there are so cute.

i think its kinda stupid to be mad at gifmakers for gifing pjo and those who rb it. is everyone just expected to do research on every single person involved in something they enjoy before theyre allowed to publicly enjoy it? the actors you mentioned arent even main characters.

so many viewers dont even know the names of the cast and creators let alone their views on palestine. be mad at the fucking president and people who can make a difference, not someone who enjoys a show and runs a blog.

i'm not asking anyone to do extensive research on who to support and who not to. disney is one of the BDS pressure targets, and making sure not to support content created by disney is quite literally the bare minimum an average consumer can do to support palestine. BDS has proven to be effective in ending different companies' ties with israel. people have been posting about how disney is one of the main targets to boycott for almost three months now. and while the call to boycott isn't strictly true, your average gifmaker who's "chronically online" would have definitely seen posts about it without doing any research at all. and mind you, most of the gifmakers i've seen on my dash creating pjo content are the same ones reblogging posts for awareness about palestine, with BDS being one of the most widely known ways to take a stand against israel. this, alone, should be enough for these creators to not engage with pjo content on their public blogs at all.

but since you seem to be in the mood for an argument, i think it's a pretty safe assumption that most of the people engaging with pjo content know that rick riordan authored the original books and he publicly posted about how he supports israel in their ongoing genocide against palestinians on his public blog, which again, isn't that hard to find.

beyond that, regardless of whether or not those actors are main characters or side characters, they are making money based on the success of the show. by streaming, by giffing, by doing any public promotion for the show at all, you are putting money into the pockets of people who support palestinian genocide.

and finally, i can be "mad at the president" but the average consumer also happens to be a "person who can make a difference," so forgive me for having the mental capacity to be mad at multiple things at once.

I would like to rant about something. It's been awhile since I've done that and it's been kinda bubbling under the surface for a long time.

Again: you can headcanon whatever the fuck you want, this just my "takes me out of a story" thing.

There have been a couple posts that I've seen going around lambasting people for using other names for Eddie then Edward (Edwin, Edison, Edmond etc) when it's on his missing poster as Edward Munson.

Only there is a couple things wrong with that.

One: Not everyone goes through every frame of the show and are actual causal viewers! I know, shocking! (heavy sarcasm here, folks) I personally had seen the missing poster gifed and screenshotted a billion times and never caught that they had his first and last name until someone pointed it out.

Two: it lists Eddie's age at 17. So how well can trust it, really? I know I've seen several takes from production getting the age wrong, to Wayne making him younger so people care, to Kas theory, to even Eddie being one of the kids that went missing before Will and his age is listed as what it would have been in 1983 (which could go either supernatural or Wayne just used the old missing poster from then).

So until there is something ELSE in the show that shows his name AS Edward, you can call him whatever you want, because canon just tells us that his name is Eddie.

So why am I bringing this up?

Because the people going around shouting this bit of information tend to also people who will use one or the other or even both of the next headcanons in their meta/fanfics.

1- Eddie CAN'T swim. This one always takes me out of the story when I see it because we have TWO on screen events that show him swimming. The first is the one most people forget. When Jason and his friends chase Eddie out onto the lake and he falls in. If he couldn't swim, dude would have DIED. But he makes it to Skull Rock. The second time is jumping after Steve. Trust as someone who can't swim, there is no way he would go jumping in after Steve if he couldn't. He would go back to shore and let the kids know what was going on.

So I tend to back out of a fic when I see it, because if you're off about that aspect of his character, I'm not sure I want to read further because what else might they get wrong about him.

2- This one is a doozy for me because it really makes me mad. When they say Wayne is Eddie's mom's brother.

"While all the other dads were teaching their kids to fish or to play ball...my old man was teaching me how to hotwire. Now I swore to myself I wouldn't wind up like he did, but now I'm wanted for murder and soon grand theft auto so...uh, yeah really living up to that Munson name."

Right, I had to transcribe the whole phrase because IMDb only had the hotwiring part. Because it's that last part that is so important to my point. Now I don't know if there are other ways to interpret that line, but if Wayne's last name is Munson and Eddie talks about living up to the Munson name...wouldn't the logic follow that Eddie's dad (named Allen Munson in the Stranger Things: First Shadow play and that's how I'll refer to him from now on to make it easier to type) is also a Munson? So if Wayne, Allen, and Eddie all share the same name wouldn't that make Wayne and Allen brothers?

Now, I think I know where this logic that Wayne is related to Eddie's mom and not his dad, is because how could sweet, hardworking Wayne be related to criminal, most likely in jail Al? Because I don't know who needs to hear this: but even growing up poor in a family that isn't known for its honest living (not that I think all the Munsons are like Al, by the way) one can still chose not to follow in those footsteps. Hell, Wayne could have even straightened up FOR Eddie.

Hell we know more about Eddie's dad then we do his mom. The only thing we know is that she isn't around to take care of Eddie. Dead, in jail, or just doesn't give a damn, she's not in Eddie's life.

So yeah, it upsets me because to me it smacks a little classist. Good guy Wayne can't be related to criminal Al *clutches pearls!* He absolutely is.

Seeing this site's reaction to Venom and Kraven, I decided to write my own script for a Sony Marvel movie

Miles Warren (played by Joseph Quinn) is a brilliant scientist, who is fallen for his assistant, Gwen Stacy, but he's too awkward to talk to her. Before he can ask her out, she is killed in a car accident so he decides to clone her! But his research is stolen, and he is injected with jackal blood. Not irradiated jackal blood, or a serum. Just jackal blood

When he wakes up, he discovers that he has jackal powers. This means he gets in wacky situations where he chases his tail! He sniffs people's butts! He pisses everywhere to mark his territory. (Jackals are just dogs right?)

But he has to eat dead bodies. Like a jackal. But robbing graves and eating raw rotting flesh isn't enough. So he starts just hunting and killing homeless people! To clean up the streets! Because he isn't a hero, he's an anti-hero! (proceeds to eat an innocent man alive in front of his screaming friend)

So the Jackal ends up tracking down the guy who stole his research and and it turns out hes also taken the jackal blood and is now a giant hulk green jackal! They fight and Miles defeats him and finds the clone of Gwen Stacy! Sure she has no memory of him, they never dated, and he is funcionaly a child but he now has a girlfriend!

End credit scene and Morbius shows up to recruit him for the Sinister Six.

I predict it will bomb at the box office and be panned by critics, but will be loved by a very specific type of fangirl who either A) will watch it on mute so they can lick the screen, and write self insert reader x jackal fan fics while gifing the same 5 seconds or B) have a fetish for gay white men, and focus on this one scene where Miles pisses on a street corner while looking another guy in the eye; and think that is the hight of queer representation. Because who wants actual queer characters when companies can do the barest "hinting" and fangirls with a fetish can jump on it and claim critics are homophobic

Hi! Happy 4k celebration 🥰 Can you share how you make your gifs or make a gif tutorial?

hi !! tysm <3 i'm more than happy to give you a little tutorial on how i make my gifs ! of course, my process is not the same to other gifmakers and may not always work for everyone but i hope it helps !

for this tutorial, i'm using the most recent edition of photoshop (2023) on my mac. full explanation under the cut.

full disclaimer: most of what i've learnt about photoshop and the giffing process is through pure trial and error. this won't work for everyone and others may think it's a little weird, but this is just how i make my gifs !!

1.find your scenes.

finding your scenes is sometimes very time consuming but you want to get it right the first time !! for this tutorial, i'm using a music video in mp4 format.

2. loading your scenes.

to load your scenes, you want to go: 'file' > 'import' > 'video frames to layers'. i know that this step varies on the user because some people like to go to timeline first, but i'd advise starting in frames first !

after that, a screen like i've depicted below will pop up. i've also annotated everything for you as well.

so, select your desired range, press 'ok' and then it will all load into ps !

3. setting up your gif.

i'm grouping this all into one step, but it's broken down into a few things.

the first part of this is: cropping. the recommended dimensions i follow are on this guideline here, but for the sake of this tutorial i'm just going to crop my gif 540x540 (as a w x h setting). the crop tool is on the left hand tool bar.

now, my gif looks like this. from here, i'm going to click on the timeline (the space along the bottom that has every frame). from there, click on the three lines to get this menu (i've circled where to go + what you'll click):

from there, go 'select all frames' and then click on any of the frames NUMBERS (where it says 0.04 with an arrow besides it, or whatever yours says) then change the frame rate. with most youtube videos i will use 0.08 as my desired frame rate, but when i'm gifing a show or something, it loads in as 0.02, so i change it to 0.05. 0.05-6 on any normal screen cap should be fine, but obviously you can change it depending on if it looks right or not.

from there, you've basically done the first half of the basics. now, you'll want to click on this button:

and now you'll be taken to the video timeline ! from here, select command + option + a (this is for mac, i think it would be control if you're on another device) then, right click on your layers and go 'convert to smart object'.

from here, i'll sharpen my gif before i colour. for this step i have two alternative sharpening settings first one by anyataylorjoy (rb to download !) and the other by maygrant (please ask !). the first one is tuser maygrant's and the second one is tuser anyataylorjoy's. i typically use morgan's for all my basic gifs but anyataylorjoy's for creative sets. every user has a different preference but just find what's good for you !

4. colouring your gif.

definitely the most tedious, this can be a little bit of a hassle depending on the scene. if the colouring isn't riddled with heavy yellows or cyans, colouring is usually a breeze but if it is, it can be hard.

CURVES

the circle with the arrow dropdown and that's half grey-white is the circle you want to click on to find curves. it'll open a menu and curves will be at the top.

you'll see a little menu like above appear. now, select the dropper i've indicated as being the "light point" and then, using the zoom tool, we're going to zoom in and find the brightest point on the gif. this is typically where the light source is.

in this section here, i can see a couple of bright points. using the dropper, i'll click on the closest to white (note: i find that white rarely changes the colouring of the gif, so if there's like, a really really light yellow, for example, click on that) and then i'll do a similar process with the "dark point" dropper, finding the darkest spot, which is usually in shadows or in the corners. unlike with the light dropper, you want the closest to black, whether that's a dark dark brown or dark dark blue.

now, we can see how the colouring has changed:

optional: you can change the white line on the curves menu, which can make it lighter, or darker in different points of the gif.

LEVELS

levels is an optional step, but i recommend it on very light gifs, or if you want to add a little more depth. probably don't do it on an already very dark gif.

the levels menu looks like this:

the far left slider adds shadows and the far right slider makes it lighter. on this particular gif, i only need a little bit of depth to her face and i only need to contrast that a little bit. by just dragging the slider a little bit:

this is the result:

with levels, it can very quickly alter skin tone/make your gif look bad !! with levels, i don't think you need to go above 1-12 in adding depth.

OPTIONAL: BRIGHTNESS/CONTRAST

brightness/contrast is optional !! only add it if it's necessary :)

COLOUR BALANCE

a colour balance layer is great for fixing the tones for the gif !!

this one's pretty self explanatory. if you want it to be more yellow, slide it towards yellow. if you want it to be more red, slide it more towards red, etc etc. i've attached some gifs showing how i change tone:

but just play with it until it looks right. be very careful with skin tone !! colour balance can very easily whitewash/colour wash and that is not something encouraged, in the slightest.

SELECTIVE COLOUR

a selective colour layer is basically a "final touch" to colouring. where colour balance just kind of does an overall change of the gif, selective colour allows you to alter your specific tones, ie. reds, magentas, blues, etc. for me, i'll do the bulk of getting my desired colouring with colour balance, but if it overcorrects reds, for example, i'll add some cyan to red tones in selective colour, to diffuse that.

currently, in my gif, it's very red/yellow heavy. to balance that out, i want to add cyans. so, on the drop down list of the selective colour menu, i'll select 'red' and then i'll ADD cyans (so move the slider to the right, not the left to decrease) and then repeat that on other tones that i want to correct, with different colours.

with each of the sliders, just add or decrease how much of that colour is in that tone. once again, be mindful of skin tone and whether it is appropriate or not.

with selective colour, if there are any standout colours (eg. in my gif, there's a big patch of cyan) that don't interrupt their face (eg. reds and yellows are always in faces) and change the way the subjects look, you can change those colours to make it more vibrant. so, in this gif, i'll enhance the cyans and blues and magentas to make the colours pop more.

5. saving your gif

once your happy with the colouring of your gif and done what you need to do with it, save it as a smart object with all your colouring layers, then go to 'file' > 'export' > 'save for web (legacy)...' . play back your gif, and it should be all good !! congrats on making your gifs !

i've included a playback of each layer, which is staggered to show each layer come into effect.

in order: nothing -> curves -> levels-> brightness/contrast -> colour balance -> selective colour.

hope this helped !!

I don't wanna repeat what others said or gifed. We all watched the same thing, we just process it differently. And that's okay. That's the power of art and fiction. And I don't claim my point of view to be in any way unique. Au contraire, I know and I hope I'm not alone

For a couple of nights now when I lie in bed and fall asleep, I imagine that someone kind, wise and loving watches over me. I'm an atheist and agnostic but I'm this close to believe in Yggdrasil being the true shape of the known universe and Loki in its core holding it all together. There aren't many stories that would impact my imagination that way, so to me that's impressive.

I never expected a Marvel series or movie to go this deep. Not because it's a superhero franchise but because Marvel never really allowed it. From the beginning they tried to make things easier to understand and to pack into a movie length sequence. In my personal opinion, Tom Hiddleston added depth with his brilliant performance and delivery in every scene and shot like no one else in the entire franchise, but I'm a long time fan and I am obviously biased. I think now that in Thor his performance was a tool to show Loki's otherness but it quickly became a key to this character. He could go differently about the scene with Odin or the scene with Thor on the Bifröst, but he didn't and thus determined Loki's future.

This journey was chaotic and truly Loki's. Closing this chapter feels significant. It's also finally satisfying though in a bittersweet way. But cinema is meant to make you feel real emotions, art is meant to do that. The appreciation of something is possible because of how the absence of that thing feels.

The combo of cinematography, special effects, music and cast couldn't be more perfect and reached peak in season 2. There are some good quotes and noticeable dialogues, but the most important things lay in the moments of silence, in the movements of faces and bodies, in the framing of a shot. You don't need to name things out loud for them to exist. You have to sit and reflect and define those things yourself, for yourself. This way the artist compliments the viewer's intelligence.

I’m so sorry you feel so discouraged :( I used to gif all of the time and the last few years have found my motivation dwindling because people don’t reblog things. I just recently started posting stuff again and how I changed my outlook on it is to remember that we’re gifing for the fun of it. Gif things that make YOU happy and things that YOU want to gif. That might seem obvious but try to make gifing a hobby again rather than a responsibility. Hope that makes sense and it’s ok to also feel how you’re feeling bec again, this blogging website is suffering bec people don’t want to reblog things. Maybe take a break from it for a while? Or join some creator discord servers to try and get your work promoted more?

Thank you for writing anon <3 I'm sorry to hear that you lost your motivation for so long, but happy to hear you feel better about it now <3 And I hope you won't think I'm being vain or smth, but I've always been giffing with me first in mind, as in things I already love and enjoy and sharing these things with others just made it that much special. As much as I love creating things, having no one to share them with makes it not worth in the end (for me).

#asks #anonymous #i hope it makes sense!!#i really do apprieciate you writing to me <3

@alkalische, thank you for your tags! I actually have an adjacent headcanon about Ines and red.

I believe that when she uses her Arts, the colours around her fade and the shadows are amplified. As a result, while her vision doesn't get completely black and white, it gets pretty close to it.

However, after she started living among the Sarkaz, she conditioned herself to decipher colour red. Now her "Arts vision" looks kinda like Darknights Memoir cover (I'm not gifing it, but you know the figures in the back are all shadow-y):

Ines uses red threads because she can easily distinguish them among the shadows. This is also my explanation as to why W's DM design and Hoederer's third evolution have her threads: it helps her to spot them on the battlefield. In addition, we know that using her Arts can affect her eyes, so it may double as a vision aid.

I also think it partially affects her perception of people. Among her friends, Hoederer and Ascalon are both redheads, W has red horns and both she and Paprika wear outfits with prominent red details. Meanwhile, Theresa is one of the people she doesn't want to use her Arts on, and when she first saw her she described her as being "white" (as opposed to "shadowy black" I presume she usually sees).

hello!!! back with an update on my buddie/911 journey... i'm on season 4 now and i'm obsessed. you were SO right that the gifs and youtubes don't do buddie justice. especially in seasons 2 and 3 there was a buddie moment like EVERY EPISODE! like when maddie makes buck bring snacks since he's coming over to eddie's for a party and buck's like "i'm not really a guest though"?! stuff that i haven't even seen gifed. because there are too many moments to gif them all!!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

also can we talk about how it's been insinuated THREE times (so far that i've seen) that buck is into men and his responses have been 1. thank you 2. to smile and laugh 3. to get overwhelmed and flustered?!?! (i.e. santa elf comment, maddie talking about josh, tk flirting with him) if we can't have buddie canon s7 then i would loooove more bi buck moments in s7 🙏

oh! but also i had a question. do you or any of your followers have the pic of oliver and ryan standing in front of a truck on set but wearing their regular clothes? ryan's wearing a shirt with the mexican flag or something and oliver's wearing dark red + shorts... that pic stucks in my mind (oliver looks soooo good there) but i already lost it somehow! 💙

I'm so glad you're enjoying the buddie ride and picking up on those moments.

Also i don't think i've seen that photo?? I'll tag in a couple moots who might know more about it

@housewifebuck @lover-of-mine @unfortunatehyperfixations any ideas?

📍Latch FD practice- Nationals 2017

I saw a part of this moment gifed recently and it reminded me I wanted to do a post about more of this moment.

The other post was just a gif of when he gives her that gentle lil back pat, but I wanted to mention the before and after and why there was a back pat at all (not that he needs a reason).

So this is at the end of the practice (as there are other teams bowing) and VM are finishing up by practicing their straight lift. They come round towards the front and don’t continue with their choreo lift, just skate around out of it. That’s where he gives her the little back pat. Just stopping there is sweet and lovely enough that there was a precious, affectionate moment- like ‘good job kiddo that was a good lift’.

But after that moment they seem to be discussing something about the lift, and he kinda indicates to his hip/thigh where she stands in the lift.

Now you obviously can’t hear what they are discussing so I’ll just be taking a guess here: I like to think before they practiced the lift they were talking about how to make it better, more seamless, what they can each do to make it easier for each other, etc..

So here as he indicates to his leg, I’m guessing they were trying having him put her in a slightly different position-placing her skate higher up/lower down on his leg for when she goes to stand up into the arabesque position- this may’ve been for her balance, it wasn’t comfortable for him (unlikely since he never says anything/complains about her standing on him with skates on).

He also then seems to make the ‘turn out’ motion with his left arm (this is a universal gesture for dancers when we are talking about turnout). So maybe they wanted to try her standing on a more turned out leg. I don’t know any of this for certain, this is all just a guess based on the gestures they’re making.

So if that is the case, it’s so sweet how he gives her that back pat, then seems to ask if that felt better for her, him putting her blade in a bit of a different spot, if that helps her get more turn out on her supporting leg, etc.. it’s just so interesting getting even a tiny glimpse into how they work together 🖤

Hello misty! Here I am in your inbox again.

So how do you feel about gamingmas ending? And entering the worst content drought since you became a phannie?

How is your phannie journey going? Have you somehow grown even more fond of them recently? Did you find any new favorite videos/moments recently? Or did you get too distracted by gamingmas and not have that much time to watch anything else?

Hopefully our dads will come back to us soon so we don’t go too crazy. Happy holidays and I hope you have a happy dnp filled 2024

Heyy Sandra, always so happy to see you in my inbox! I extend your wishes right back to you, I hope you are having a nice break right now :)

Again, long answer under the cut!

So how do you feel about gamingmas ending? And entering the worst content drought since you became a phannie?

I honestly don't think I've processed it ending yet. I have gotten so used to them just always being here and us constantly having new things to talk about that it will take a moment to sink in that it's over now. Like what do you meannn we've had a new video every day for 24 days? How is it possible that I can actually scroll through the videos I was here for when they got released?

I'm back home right now, so I have other things to keep me occupied and I don't think I'll notice gamingmas ending as much as I would if I was alone. (Being able to drown unsuspecting victims (my siblings) in information about them has been really fun. I think they have quietly accepted that there is something wrong with me.)

The teeny tiny rational part that's left in me is almost relieved that gamingmas is over now because the daily uploads did take up a lot of mental space, so I think a calmer pace will actually be good for me.

But gods, it was fun and I am so glad I stuck around. Purely content wise it was soso good, I know I will rewatch most of these videos. But what truly made this experience for me was being on tumblr and seeing all the reactions and art and gifs. (If you're reading this gif makers, artists and editors I love you I love you I love you.) Man, it was so exciting, the energy was so cool and I loved how we were all just waiting for it together every evening. I think that's the thing I'll probably miss most about gamingmas, the certainty about new videos dropping and the event-like feeling it had.

Also, I usually really notice my mood dropping in winter but I have been doing really well this december, and while I did lose sleep over them occasionally I think overall gamingmas genuinely contributed to that.

So yes, I will be missing it but honestly, I'm mostly excited to see what the future brings because I think they really found a really great new (?) dynamic (between themselves obv but also with us) and some good new concepts. And I think bored phannie tumblr with withdrawal symptoms will be fun in the next few days.

How is your phannie journey going? Have you somehow grown even more fond of them recently?

I guess you could say I have grown more fond of them but in a different way. I was going to write that that first giddy excitement for them has worn off, but honestly, it truly hasn't. What has changed is that I have gotten...used to them being part of my life now? Like before gamingmas there was still a chance of me getting out of this unscathed but now it is too late. Okay, I know I like being dramatic, but what I mean by this is that now I know they'll stick around. Even if I started feeling more normal about them at some point, I would still keep up with them, I wouldn't stop...caring I guess.

Fandom wise, I keep settling more and more into this tumblr space and have gotten used to and very comfortable with the way things work around here. I really enjoy understanding the references (well, most of them anyways, and if I don't, I know who to ask). I like that by now I can guess which moments will be gifed and talked about. And that apparently the random things I say resonate with other people (I'm very used to just screaming into the void on the internet). Side note, wedding hill has been very entertaining to watch, even though I don't know enough nor truly feel like contributing to it.

Did you find any new favorite videos/moments recently? Or did you get too distracted by gamingmas and not have that much time to watch anything else?

I haven't had too much time (partially because of gamingmas, partially because of irl things) but I did dive into the radio shows a little bit and there are so many great moments in there. When I have some more time I will need to fully get into that. And the old liveshows!

I think the thing that shook me the most though was stumbling across "forever home" while listening to the stereo shows. It hit me completely unexpected (see my initial reaction). Something something happily phorever after, am I right?

(btw, I finally got through all of the stereo shows now and. I. need. more. Live shows, a podcast, something, pleaseee.)

I already have a mental list of things I really want to watch though and my "watch later" on youtube is overflowing, so I am definitely not running out of content any time soon.

So, in conclusion...

I am still very happy to be and stay here, but don't really mind things getting a bit calmer and I am genuinely very excited to see what the new normal they'll settle into next year will be like. And I am so here for the big things that will inevitably come (because something is coming, isn't it?).

Thank you for sticking around with me :)

#this still feels a bit surreal #if you'd told me three months ago I'd be here right now...I would've believed you actually because this is so very me #but I wouldn't have wanted to believe you. turns out this is working out so much better than I could've imagined #misty says things #answered asks #dan and phil
