#and what a good life it is right now

[tariah23]

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

#it’s just??? #at the end of the day all these people want to do is draw and write their stories and share them with the world #why is death from stress the end game for so many of them #this should not be part of the package when finally deciding that this is what you want to do with your life #rambling #I still never got over miura’s passing man #and Togashi is still here but he’s been suffering from the consequences of overwork #it’s just… all so bleak #fans just need to learn to be patient if these changes are ever made and to be respectful #your fav series is not gonna die just because you can’t get it right now #I’m glad that gege does this now like he takes a break every 2-3 chapters and that’s good #this should be normalized

do any other artists feel like. yeah you're a 'good artist' because you draw things that look nice, but like. TECHNICALLY? you're really not great

i really hate that i can recognise that yes, my art is good, but is it VARIED? is it dynamic?? is my anatomy good? is it full of texture and colour theory? do i know how to do This? can i do That? no, not really. and that's quite painful actually

#ramble #yes this is the artist's perspective bs and yes this is anxiety because it's 1am #and yes i'm forever learning and growing but also #aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. #drawing my little guys is fun but i am not good enough for the industry right now and that fucking sucks #i really feel like if i walked into a studio with my portfolio right now they would laugh at me #one of those days where i wish i'd done a more useful degree y'know #i'm going back through the phase where i don't know what i'm going to be anymore and it's scary #some days i really want to give it up and never draw again and do something worthwhile because i Know my life would be easier #and i hate that something i love so much makes me feel so hopeless #signs that i should go to bed ^^^^ #i will resume my pity party tomorrow

okay but you can see the moment percy's heart shatters into pieces once he learns that grover was also annabeth's protector. because this child grew up watching as his peers chose schoolyard taunts over compassion. watching as his dad chose freedom over fatherhood. watching as his mother chose to protect his life by sacrificing her own. but when his mom dies, he holds onto the notion that at least he's not alone. at least he has grover. but that worldveiw wastes away when he learns that he is, first and foremost, grover's assignment. that he was no one's first choice at all.

#i've been wanting to say this for years #and i finally have the words #and this is no way hate toward percy and grover's friendship #grover really is his best friend and actively chooses him time and time again #but percy doesn't know who to trust or what to think right now #and with his luck #a situation or relationship proven 'too good to be true' is a theme far too common in his life #(also his fatal flaw is loyalty so i just KNOW this had to hurt twice as bad) #okay rant over #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo text post #pjo #pjo headcanon #percy jackson #grover underwood #annabeth chase #percy and grover #hurt percy jackson #percy jackson angst

On the weekend, Renee took Robbie out to take his mind off things. He felt more comfortable if Jayleen was there, so Renee came along with Vincent! Visiting the Bloom Garden & Cafe was a nice escape from the busy city and they enjoyed the splendid views! But Renee and Vincent started talking about their jobs; something Robbie didn't want to hear. He tried to block out their voices, but all he heard was their success, making him feel like even more of a failure...

Then he heard enough. He made some snide remarks about their careers targeting Vincent's success and left to get some space. Renee should have known better about Robbie's work situation and went to check on him, "I'm sorry Robbie, we should've stopped." She let him vent his frustrations, listening and offering some big sister advice.

"There's one more thing...I'm a bit embarrassed to say this," Robbie admitted and talked about how he was intimidated by Vincent. "Oh, Robbie," Renee finally understood his perspective.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have said all that to you," Robbie apologised to Vincent. "Hey, it's ok. I get what you're going through, I've been there too," he managed a small smile, "You remind me of myself...when I was at the lowest point of my life." Robbie doesn't know much about Vincent or his past: all he thinks about is how he is now and how perfect his life seemed. His train of thought was interrupted by a gentle touch, "If you ever want to talk about it, I'll be here for you."

Say it’s likely there will be a Brokeback Mountain reference in s5 and nobody bats an eye.

Say it’s likely that the final byler fight will be inspired by this scene and society goes wild.

#byler #we could’ve had a good life together! #a fuckin' real good life! #had us a place of our own #but you didn’t want it ennis!! #so what we got now is brokeback mountain!! #that part #it just takes me straight to the repetition of them wanting to play games together for the rest of their lives #how they’ve been sort of hiding behind this idea that really is about them wanting to be with each other #the way it’s focused on in their s3 fight #and then Will bringing it up AGAIN in s4 light heartedly and Mike sort of just being somber about it #and what follows right after it… #idk brokeback mountain might support that Mike knew Will was lying about the painting (unserious) (but no actually) #Dimitri @ Yuri lying about what is wrong with the plane #(even tho we know he’s hiding the truth in his pocket) #: you know it to be true. and yet you continue to play tricks!! #😀😀😀 #and society goes wild #so I think the scenes will be identical? #no that’s not the point #one word gesture or even costume design could pay homage to it for a second during their final fight #with a mention of playing games together for the rest of their lives #and what that actually has meant this whole time… #and it’s a wrap

#witch hat tag #orufrey #these kinda suck lol i feel like i cant draw right now *irritated sigh* BUT I FEEL EMOTIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #if you are gay go watch good omens season 2 right now. NO YOU DONT KNOW THO!!!!!!!!! #i know being this affected by good omens is probably cringe. I dont care any more. the last 1 minute of good omens season 2 was #some of the most affecting acting i've ever seen in my life. sometimes someone acts with the force as if their entire career led to that #like during the credits part the very end im not even talking about before that. holy god #aziraphale i know everything about you. i know what you are feeling right now. i can see everything on your face. we're going to make it #ER.... NOT THAT THIS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS POST. IT'S NOT SPOILERS !!!!!!!!!!!!! #I JUST FEEL THOROUGHLY CHANGED !!!!!!!!!!! SHIT GETS REAL FROM NOW ON.. LIKE IN GENERAL! IN MY LIFE! #tormented gay love tormented gay love TORMENTED GAY LOVE TORMENTED GAY LOVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #btw the first 3 images were drawn earlier with an entirely different feeling and an entirely different mood. #Why do you keep pulling away from me? #It is because i love you that i do this #the lyrics from one of my japanese orufrey songs (A SONG THAT THE CREATOR LISTENS TO!!!!) led to feelings #“あなたが知らない私を残さず見ててほしいの” but i'm not translating it cause it just sounds weird. if with his eyes oru's asking “WHY don't you want #to let me in? to see all of you?“ those lyrics are like ”I actually want you to see every last bit of the parts of me you don't know“ #oru you have no idea how much i want to lay bare my whole soul for you #maybe it's an alternate version of chapter 40. to me #i need to draw something really fucking good or i'm not going to forgive myself. i will not rest in this life #until i have made the orufrey that fully satisfies me nor until i have seen what the manga is leading to #NO STORY MEANS ANYTHING WITHOUT TORMENTED GAY LOVE AT THE HEART OF IT. THATS THE HEART OF THIS WORLD!!!!! #........... so Hi im normal :) haha *goes and finally makes breakfast*

For the Swanatello fam: what does everyone miss most about Donnie during his lake-induced absences?

for donnie, leo will gladly give every scrap of patience and grace and gentleness he has. he doesn't mind explaining things. he doesn't mind telling his brother the same things over and over. he doesn't mind it when donnie forgets or doesn't understand or needs his help to remember or process things.

but he misses the banter. the back-and-forth. the stupid fights and pranks and 'you said's' and 'i told you so's.' and, perhaps a bit selfishly, he misses when he didn't always feel like he had to be the bigger person for him. he misses when he still had the space to be childish and immature and petty towards his twin, and it wouldn't hurt either of them the way it tends to now.

[ swanatello ]

#swanatello #its no fun to pick a fight if you cant apologize and make up later #getting in that perfect GOTTEM line doesnt feel v good if the only reason is bc the other guy is confused/cant remember what ur talking abt #sure leo is still his typical brand of obnoxious and extra most of the time. esp when donnie is having a good day. #but the rules are just so different now. #hes so frustrated and tense all the time he has to step carefully because if he doesnt #he loses himself and crosses the line and says things that he doesnt mean and will regret #things that used to roll right off donnies back now sometimes really hurt him because he doesnt remember the context #or just because his emotional state is so volatile right now. hes scared and confused almost all the time now. #its stressful. its exhausting. so the threshold is different #leo will be gentle and careful and thoughtful with donnie for as long as he needs to be. even if he has to be for the rest of his life. #but he still misses when he felt like he knew all the rules. when it was easy. when he didnt have to be. #rottmnt #save rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #save rise of the tmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rise of the tmnt #donniesona #tmnt #tmnt 2018 #tmnt 2k18 #rottmnt disaster twins #asks

So here I am, woke up far earlier than I thought I WOUDL Have and deided to make that everyone else's problem.

Pardon my bad spelling.

This is a part two to uh this because my brain decided whyNot.

So Danny get taken into the Watchtower, still amazed and in wonder that the earth is actually alive in this... whatever situation this is.

To be honest, he thinks he may or may not have time traveled.

Only to then find out he got summoned to an entirely different dimension, to which he's like cool and oh no.

So the JL ask him what he's oh noing about, and Danny offhandedly mentions how the other Ghost King is probably going to be on a warpath trying to find him.

JL:....Other Ghost King?

Danny: Technically only Half-King since I make up the other half, but yea.

Danny doesn't notice the amount of worry that fell over the JL, the words Ghost King and Warpath being in the same sentence doesn't paint a pretty picture. Danny is too busy poking around the room for that.

Artemis suddenly looking up when Danny was summoned to the DC universe:....Something just happened.

Meanwhile, over in the DP universe:

Vlad, due to not having Danny's aura around is far quicker to anger and irritation than before. He's good at controlling the once overwhelming rage though, but he is getting annoyed as fuck that NO ONE not even the literal MASTER OF TIME, knows where his counter-part is.

He's lucky the earth no longer exists, or that any other deities are around because his absence would be noted by more than just him.

So, to hopefully find the wayward deity, he sends multiple ghosts out into different portals to Danny, and if irritated as fuck when they come back with nothing.

Vlad: I have sent thousands of ghosts, and you mean to tell me that not a single one of you has found him yet!?

The ghosts he sent: Shrugs.

Vlad: Screams in pure rage.

Anywho, the ghosts are actually pretty fine with Danny getting summoned, they have another king here so it shouldn't be too much concern if the Moon King was summoned to a different dimension.

...What is a cause of concern however, was when the Sun King was summoned away too.

The ghosts, when their last remaining king was summoned to another dimension they can't find:

Apollo, minding his own business drinking some wine. Suddenly looking up:....Something just happened.

So now Vlad is summoned to the DC Universe and is not at all pleased by this.

Cultists? Man fuck em cultists he ain't got time for this.

Also Vlad when he realizes he could use them to hopefully find his counterpart in this dimension if he's here: I would like to apologize for my attempts at killing you-

Also, also Vlad when he calms down enough to see that the cultists are actual living people: Well damn.

Meanwhile in the Watchtower:

Danny, poking around the Watchtower while the JL is in the same room as him, suddenly looking up towards Earth and stopping what he's doing: Oh, he's here.

Also Danny: Goes back to doing what he was doing as if he didn't just say some ominous shit.

The JL tries and utterly fails to get him to elaborate on who he's talking about, who's here and if its the other Ghost King.

Danny: Refuses to elaborate.

Also Danny: Purposely hides his aura from Vlad.

Vlad, when the moon's aura suddenly disappeared from his radar before he could even pinpoint his location properly: Breathes in and out calmy.

Also Vlad: I am going to kill someone.

#dc x dp #dp x dc crossover #Danny is having the time of his life over here #While Vlad is stressing the fuck out and just might kill someone #Normal activity honestly #Artemis and Apollo both embracing that meme right now fr #Also I just woke up so if this isn't that good IDK MAnE #It is what iT is

crawling out of the 'university AU' dungeon, drenched in blood, to bring you all new shit

toshiro, laios, and namari, sitting in a circle and drinking beer:

namari: sooo how's things with that tall-man? the uh... I don't know how old he is. that one guy.

toshiro: kabru?

namari: yeah!

laios, slumping over: marcille says i'm in the talking stage with him. i don't even know what that is

namari, under her breath: you're going to marcille for love advice?

toshiro (he didn't hear her): I think a talking stage is a 'friendship'

laios:

Yes, of course I have a thing for the rich lady that sets up elaborate games to hunt and eat people for sport. She’s British she’s posh she’s old she’s commanding and she’s morally revolting. How the hell am I supposed not to have a thing for her

#her name is LADY MOWBRAY for fuck’s sake. she ticks all my boxes!!!!! #like literally she’s got an enormous rifle and calls people ‘dearie’ what the hell am I supposed to do #i heard her voice and I was gone #jon sims really is the gift that keeps on giving. first gertrude and now this lady. I’m having the time of my life #thank god mr bonzo isn’t the OIAR’s only hitman lmao #im a bit late but this was a damn good episode! poor alice got extremely traumatised! #this was not a good one for her between the catastrophic flirting failure at the beginning and… that… at the end #and we got to meet luke! something terrible is gonna happen to him isn’t it #obsessed with the fact that gwen has apparently fully embraced her role. she’s got her customer service voice ready and everything #she offered the HUMAN HUNT LADY some REFRESHMENTS like girlie what are you doing #and what are the Cheshire Bouchards?????? you can’t just name-drop that and not elaborate??? #overall I feel like the one that comes out of this episode on top is celia. she’s got some serious guts! #standing up to the human hunt lady right after listening to a statement about said human hunt lady? holy shit celia #VERY very good episode overall. i had a blast and lady Mowbray was genuinely scary (I love her already agh) #the magnus protocol #tmagp #tmagp spoilers #tmagp 15 #lady mowbray

#unrelated to my last post #also this is gonna be an unpopular opinion #but i’ve honestly made my peace with how taylor approaches her public politics #(i’ve said this before too) #i may sound like a cupcake right now #but i don’t have the energy to bang my head against a wall when i know no matter what i do the wall won’t break #and that’s just the harsh truth #i have trust that she is a good person and her actions show that and it is enough for me #she’s not interested in being a political figure or representative and just wants to encourage people to vote #and will speak up during elections or during pride month etc #and ofc you can make the argument that she’s so influential so she should be and i agree but also! it’s her choice! #she is political in her private her life and she doesn’t owe her politics publicly #people should focus more on actual politicians and presidents and world leaders whose actual job it is #arshia talks

How would bill feel if dipper reincarnated as an incubus?

Thrilled. Delighted. Tickled pink! Partly because hey! That's a great look for him! Inhuman and demonic and oh-so-cute. Another part because of all the demonic subtypes he could end up as, this one has to be the most ironic, a bit of him thrilled just because it's good to see him again -

And of course, a Big Ol' Chunk of delight for the other obvious reason.

#answers #Not thursday but vaguely thirst scented #Dipper is very very bad at being an incubus #That nerdy awkward affectation is cute and all until you realize it's REAL #Not playing a role just literally that awkward #The minute Bill gets a whiff of where Dipper's at this lifetime he's doing his hair and polishing up. Freshing up his breath. Strutting out #Well well welll look who happens to be a demon that feasts upon life force to survive! With a very *interesting* method! #What's that? Feel weird about draining people's lives out through their- ahem. Well no problem; Bill has the solution right here! #Don't wanna accidentally kill someone? Easy! Turns out Bill's magical reserves are downright inexhaustible! #A LOT of things about Bill are inexhaustible #Who wants a big ol' bite of Bill Cipher himself? That's right Dipper does now get over here #Dragging him off to Dipper's sheer confusion and mild terror #Bill has a Reputation and it's not always a good idea to get his attention #Don't worry DIpper; it all works out VERY well for you #I had a brief mental image of - well. You know those nude sushi things #Where someone naked acts as a table for the food #Yeah. Bill doing that except the sushi's not the main dish there; just for decoration #Dipper says raw fish kills the mood but he has no respect for aesthetic and drama

the labyrinth as defined by the american heritage dictionary of the english language is “the maze in which the minotaur was confined”. minotaur, as defined by wikipedia, is the unnatural offspring of a woman and a beast. among other things.

a demigod is the unnatural offspring of a mortal and a god. of all the profane and blasphemous things you could do, knocking up yours or someone else’s creation is up there. therefore if one is to be born, it must be killed or otherwise punished. yes, we’ve established all of this.

cinder is the child of daksari. not profane or blasphemous enough to have a child with a mortal, but enough to get her sorry ass imprisoned under miles and miles of what was just begging to be called a labyrinth. the only thing it was missing was the minotaur, of course. so when the youngest child of cadaver had a rather surprising run in with a very godless mortal on the moon of cassandra…. it all seems rather planned out, doesnt it? i cant help myself when it comes to references to mythology and video games.

a labyrinth and its minotaur.

what a terrible fate

#my art #demiking #promethea #if i was any good at environment art id draw a part of the labyrinth itself.... as of right now just envision any video game dungeon #thats close enough #though this labyrinth was not created by a mortal. daksari made it specifically to make getting to cinder impossible #you could spend forever down there. if youre jack you did spend forever down there #all of this specifically because tumblr user night8 said oh whats that in tags. imagine if i showed this initiative during job interviews #or home life
