Hmhmhmmm in a silly mood and thinky thinkin about Tang Legomonkiekid again, some disjointed tang thoughts!! Because I can :3
Author's note after writing: another long post!!! I am incapable of talking about him without going on and on and on apparently, enjoy the novel!! hehehheehoo
so! The scorpion queen demoness outfit still has not left my brain!! I am plagued by the ourple apparently, just
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
why he so littol
microscopic organism
Tumblr media
its like he's a cat getting picked up by the scruff!! those clothes are too big for he goddamn he!!
Also also! The buffet scene!! We get two wide shots of it
the first:
Tumblr media
and the second:
Tumblr media
assuming it isn't some sort of custom to have your servants(?) or whatever the ladies are in this scene leave once they set the table (if it is then feel to ignore this tidbit!! :D) Them being there in the first scene but not the second makes it seem like? Tang requested them to go and let him eat in peace without 7 different women watching him while doing so??? This man is invulnerable to women and I find that so funny all he wants are his noms
Tumblr media
Adding onto that the fact that his first move when he wakes up to a pretty lady standing over him is to SCREAM and push her away is SO unbelievably funny could you be any gayer sir
Tumblr media
also can we just appreciate how easily this man crumbled the second good food was put in front of him. after being kidnapped and abducted by some clearly suspicious demon lady he just. willingly stays, unbound physically in literally anyway, just because she has good food to offer. very very silly he is so funny
Tumblr media
no additional comments just look at him
he is so scrunckly so silly, I forgor all of the other Tumblr silly words but he is all of those too
its nice that we got to see him come back in purple later tho in S4
Tumblr media
It's a dustier purple for sure but it still looks pretty nice on him :3c
also also!!
Tumblr media
I love this little training scene sm because it paints tang in such an interesting light
whereas pigsy and mei are borderline ready to jump sandy for that star all we get from Tang is a shaky "I want that", this difference is further exemplified in the coloration differences (mei and pigsy's eyes being red whereas Tang's are just whited out)
Tumblr media
this trend continues as the training session goes on! here for example we can see mei and pigsy clearly furious whereas tang is just crying- they're all frustrated! It seems as though when Tang is confronted with the issue of "not being as good as his peers" he trends more towards upset rather angry unlike the rest of his friend group
Tumblr media
This can also be seen in their individual trainings
Mei is outright violent in her training arc, both in regards to the props and opponents she fights and (verbally) to master Subodhi, pigsy is also fairly mouthy and standoffish at first and disregards whatever he perceives as an insult, but Tang on the other hand we get to see crumble a little bit. Rather then brushing off master Subodhi's gripes with him like the others Tang seems to take it to heart, getting visibly more and more miserable until he's able to turn himself around
It's a nice bit of characterization that I'm glad to see appear again, they've given him such a consistent, well written weakness I can't wait how it affects his performance in future episodes, be it for better or for worse heeheehoo
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I ADORE how much this man loves food, he's so super enthusiastic about it in literally every season it is completely adorable
I also appreciate how they didn't turn it into his entire character!! Most of the food-loving characters I've known have their entire personality based around food which, while it can be joyful at times, is kind of boring and 2 dimensional imo. I enjoy how they made him a complete fully fleshed out person like everyone else who just so happens to really like nomnoms heeheehoo
Tumblr media
looks at you with my autistic eyes
that expression is so goofy and the silly little noise he makes with it too uehhshdhhdj he is so sillay
love how he gets sparkles/shines in his eyes once he gets really excited about something or the "✨" shaped eyes
there are so many little things I love about him that NOBODY else talks about and it makes me so so sad where are my fellow insane-about-tang-lego-monkie-kid people where are uu 🥺 "let's take ibuprofen together" but it's "let's talk about a fictional Lego for hours" instead please plsss
cough- anyways uh- he has a bunch of little vocal quirks that I love so so much like!!
Tumblr media
(I don't know how to get audio clips so you're just going to have to take my word for it ueue)
Often whenever he exclaims or screams he does so in a way that I don't know how to describe actually mmmmm instead of an "AAAAAH!" it's more akin to a "WHAhaHAA!" if that makes any sense, whatever that is it's such an interesting verbal quirk I love it very much.
He does something similar in quiet exclamations of awe, instead of going "ooooh.." it sounds more like "ooohohooh.."
I guess it's like his voice falls in between dragged out sounds? Like if it weren't for his tone and the context they'd almost sound like laughs, it's definitely an "h" sound, I'm not sure if there's a term for that verbal quirk but it seems fairly unique to him in the show and I thinks it adds to his sillyness heehee
Tumblr media
squints at you squints at you squints at you squints at you squints at you squints at you squi
Tumblr media
The bbg pose is consistent and here to stay!! yahoo!!! I wonder how many times while raising mk did they manage to tire themselves out and have pigsy later walk in to both of them asleep on the floor euhdhsnns fluffy family
Tumblr media
while I'm thinking about noodle family here is your daily reminder that this scene exists in canon and mk has two dads thank you for coming to my ted talk
Tumblr media
His tone of voice was so funny here the pure PANIC in his voice manifesting in a very strained yell was so well done here weehee
Tumblr media
Circling back to the scorpion outfit, remember in the pilot episode how mk attempts to crawl away from the demon bull family after he gets caught? Tang does the exact same thing here!! same motion same thoughts process, like father like son
Tumblr media
soft squishy tang isn't even my fault anymore LOOK AT HIM, he very squish
delving into slightly more serious tang thingies for a second!!-
Tumblr media
this scene always felt incomplete to me, I feel like I'm missing something. This was when they first as a group run into lbd on their airship. Out of the entire group Tang is the only one to notice something's off and emphasis is put on this multiple times. First with "I've got a bad feeling about this pigsy", then with scene above where he's shown staring skeptically at lbd's rings, and then with him noticing the broken device on the ground(and notably not cheering on mk like everyone else) and confronting mk about it. Was ALL of that really just so Tang could make mk tell them about lbd(which he didn't even really do)? Why tang, why was he the only one to intuitively notice? even mk didn't know something was wrong with lbd when he first encountered her in her hostess form, heck even monkie king didn't, how did tang? Triptaka/golden cicada powers? Are we going to be seeing him do this again? Does it mean anything for where his story is going?? I don't know it just, it feels like too much focus was put on this just for it to be for nothing, it's odd to me.
One more thing!!
Tumblr media
what was this.
from the second episode we see macaque where he puts on a shadow play and possesses tang, pigsy, and mei n' forces them to fight mk. Never in the entire rest of the series have we ever seen someone who's possessed struggle/ appear to still be there whilst being under possession. Not with the people-turned-spider-demons not with bai he not with mei or pigsy in this scene, not even really with wukong in the special. It is arguable through his expressions that he may be somewhat still there and might be putting up a fight(especially when he's about to hit mk) but we never really seem him underneath. We never hear him and we never see his true reaction underneath the poker-faced-possessed version, never like we do with tang here. Once again, just, wjajnajj, why?? This is such an odd little detail and it's so weird how it never comes back again. If it's not foreshadowing or leading up to a bigger reveal then why animate it? Because it looked interesting? Because they could? Was it a way to express to the audience that his friends were still there under the surface and they weren't just clones? But the lights in the lantern along with them getting sucked in already made that pretty clear. If that was the case anyway, why didn't they do that with wukong? or with bai he? or with the spider demons? we had no way of knowing for sure that they were there or they'd come back after being un-possessed either. It's such a small little thing that could mean nothing but it's been stuck in the back of my mind since I first saw it back when I first picked up the show in like august. I don't know, it's cool though!! I hope they do smth more with it
It is!! 4am!!! I have to be up at 7 tmrw oopsies
ending it here gnnn if you read through all of these rambles then hiii!!! Glad you find me losing my mind over a Lego entertaining I sure have fun doing it, have a good day byebyeye :3

optimal Fëanor reembodiment shenanigans, pt. ? of ?:
Fëanor: [generally trying to be Good(TM), but nonetheless throwing a minor hissy fit over how the jewelsmiths and related crafters of the Noldor have rallied around Celebrimbor as their leader and have no interest whatsoever in changing]
someone: I’m sorry, but did anything YOU ever made singlehandedly—okay, three-handedly—preserve the power and safety of Elves in Middle Earth for an Age and a half of the world, and play a major role in the salvation of the world from evil in general?
Fëanor: [points angrily and exemplifyingly up at the Star of Eärendil sailing by] YES!
someone else, swiftly: Oh, so you agree that Eärendil’s continued holding and keeping of the Silmaril is essential for the good of all Arda and should not be disrupted for any reason?

AITA for being more poetic and vulnerable about fictional ships than I am to my irl boyfriend?
It's basically a core trait of mine that I'm always fixated on *some* pair of fictional guys. I'm also a writer and a pathological content creator, so I'm always got some kind of project or sideblog or something. There's nothing that I care about more than gay romantic love especially *in* fiction because I also love a solid narrative and symbolism, etc - and due to those things, I've always vastly preferred living vicariously through fiction to real life. I tend to essentially kin one character really hard and, through them, be genuinely in love with the guy he's in love with. And my bf definitely knew this before starting to date me because we were friends for like 3 years first (and we've now been dating for 2). The thing is, he used to be like this too, but once he moved in with me and his real life got a lot happier, he basically grew out of fixating as hard as he used to on media bc he no longer needed to live vicariously through it.
He says he understands that it's not something that I'm gonna grow out of and that it's fine. But more and more he's getting upset and genuinely jealous about my current fixation. He all but refuses to watch the show I'm currently into even though it's been a singular obsession of mine for over a year now, though he does read some of the fic I write and look at my sideblog for that show. And sometimes it's fine but other times he brings up romantic headcanons I've posted, upset that I don't ever say/do that kind of stuff for him. Or he'll outright tell me to say "something sweet" to him and when I inevitably can't think of something on the spot, which I NEVER have bc I'm just not that kind of person, he'll be like "[character A] would have something to say for [character B] :((((("
I've tried reassuring him SO many times that it's not a matter of me not loving him, or of me loving fictional characters more, but that I simply am not vulnerable like that in real life and maybe I wish that I could be, but I'm not. I'm not a fictional character, I don't live in a narrative, and I'm way too self-aware, to my own detriment, to feel authentic saying the kind of things that I write about. I'm also in my 20s and I grew up on the internet, as opposed to the middle aged men that I write about. In any case fiction allows a certain veneer between the notion of those feelings and my instinct to cringe. But my bf basically never believes me, and he doesn't say this outright, but he's clearly upset that he isn't enough to make me want to "live in real life." Even though literally nothing and no one ever has been.
As for what could potentially make *him* the asshole: I'm kind of really fucking tired of having to explain this to him. And I hate being made to feel like I'm not allowed to do what makes me happy when it's literally all fiction. I'm literally so depressed any time I don't have a show to be obsessed with and he knows this. I really don't understand why he wants to look at my posts and keep bringing it up when it just causes the same argument every time.
Basically, is his jealousy justified? AITA?
What are these acronyms?

because I’m in bed sick af and bored..the musician au (reverb series) characters and who I kin/model them after:
no warnings, just a fun lil list and drabble. (Feel free to headcanon them after whoever you feel, these are just MY personal muses) this is a lil something until the next chapter is done.
eren aka ej the don: I feel like I’ve already stated this but I hc him after Bones. From the music, the looks..everything. He favors him so much. I feel like his music videos have this dark, mysterious aesthetic just like his. In the same turn, he also sings and makes these R&B esque, love songs (just take a listen to Bones’ 2 Million Blunts album, it’s what inspired this whole AU). His musical style also ranges a lot. He may play a guitar on stage and sing for one and then start a mosh pit with the next song. Bones calls himself the ‘Underground God and The Reaper’ and if Eren wouldn’t do some shit like that, idk who would. Just like him, EJ produces and makes his own instrumentals. Like the Grammys or these awards shows don’t have to give him his flowers but he’s adored by the underground and independent scene. Super talented all the way around. Gives me heavy $uicideboys vibes too.
connie aka prince cee: I know a lot of ppl say Central Cee (who I personally don’t care for but I can see it way more for him than eren) but I actually modeled him after Yeat. I feel like Connie can rap his ass off but he never takes himself too seriously either. He’s a meme rapper but every last one of his songs is a hit. His soundbytes go viral alllll the time on Tiktok. His music is super fun and hype. But put him in a freestyle, he’s devouring every time.
onyakopon aka ony the god: now he reminds me so much of a mixture between Bryson Tiller and MO3 (🙏🏾). He definitely has bars but he has an INCREDIBLE singing voice so he combines the two and does it sound godly (no pun intended). I also think he’s a very talented piano player. He’s probably the 2nd most multi-faceted behind EJ. His style is so unique and so many try to mimic him. But they can never out do the doer. Him and EJ be having a ball in the studio; just bouncing verses off each other and singing they asses off! 😭 I also think all 3 have a few joints EP’s together.
jean aka j. kirschtein: my boy is the only non rapper in the mix. But he is the epitome of a rockstar. I mirror him making music heavily akin to Coldplay or James Arthur..alternative but still with a touch of soul in it..simply put, he’s amazing. Skilled on bass, electric and drums. Also writes for a LOT of people as well. He was Mikasa’s bassist when she performed but she took one listen and knew it wasted potential to not have him at the forefront. The first time she heard him sang, she actually cried! He has such a strong register and can do a variety of genres. He might be the most popular behind EJ signed to AMG.
mikasa aka mika ASH: even though her music career was short lived because she preferred being behind the scenes, she was cold as hell as a performer. I personally have a few I mused her after and that was Saphir, AshNikko and Thuy. Some of her music was soft and melodic but she was the epitome of a goth girl or rather, the label played on that whole aesthetic and branded her as such! She was so good though. Mixing heavy metal type music with light vocals. She had a large fanbase and of course, the alt girls LOVED her but she just couldn’t handle the pressure of fame and stepped back to be a talent scout/manager. She’s much happier with that.
armin aka arminhammer: now armin is more of a producer than artist himself. He sticks to making the beats and directing the music videos. I think of him as like a Cole Bennett or Kenny Beats. When he’s not chasing half the hoes in Miami, he’s behind the mixing board and contrary to belief, he’s the best to do it and the man you want working on your projects. He’s HIM for sure. When he DOES make music, he sounds like Chase Atlantic or The Neighborhood. (He just looks like a Chase Atlantic song, I can’t explain it!)
christa reiss aka HISTORIA: we haven’t talked about her much outside of being Eren’s ex but she’s one of the biggest pop stars in the entire verse. She’s very similar to Zara Larsson, Dua Lipa and Maggie Lindemann. Very much Top 40, bubble gum pop. She had this whole good girl gone bad vibe going on for a while and EJ still heavily influences her music and even helps her music but she gives basic white girl (but in a cute bubbly way! ☠️)

How do you feel about the portrayal of plurality in Homestuck? Because it’s not good.
Cherubs are “supposed” to predominate over their other personality. With Calliope being portrayed as naive for trying to co exist.
Horuss is mocked for being a system. But I’d say it was a king fun of people who pretend to be mentally Ill on social media for clicks.
Then their are the sprites
Tumblr media
okay so
i guess we're doing this
HOMESTUCK AND PLURALITY: A PRIMER
BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST THERES SO MUCH
SO SO SO MUCH
okay. so
homestuck is one of the best pieces of media of all time for plurality and i fuckin mean it. no shot do not pass go i have NEVER seen anything that is more built from the ground up to Support plural reads. like, to the point where it feels impossible to read homestuck without it.
as a work dealing with two huge primary themes of a) finding yourself/identity/growing up, and b) ideas coming to life, plurality is pretty much the Perfect intersection between the two of them. like.
take rose for example.
rose is plural and it's great.
when the doomed timeline evaporates, future dream rose does not actually "cease to exist." she ceases to exist as her own person -- her memories, experiences, personality, thoughts (or, as shorthand, her selfstuff) all flows back into rose prime. and that experience is just something rose has to roll with. one becomes two -- that other rose is still in her mind.
jade's plural and it's great.
when her dream self awakens as jadesprite, jade has a horrific argument with her. if you're plural i'm sure you understand. fighting with an age-regressed version of you, stuck in a traumatic past, who WONT FUCKING LISTEN -- we've all . been there.
she has involuntary barks, she can't stop seeing images of fire, she wants to go back to nonexistence but she doesnt want to die and it's torture,
and then in cascade, jade fuses with her.
dream jade is still in there. that part of her she has to grapple with is still real. her dog who she loves is in there, too -- but, yknow. woof
then grimbark gets forcefully introjected into her. i've seen a few fics play with the idea that the grimbark personality is still residually there (read ygtpoasu), but it's not a huge thing that's explored in the text. more backgrounded. but still! her crisis of identity is in there.
wanna know what's NOT backgrounded
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
tavros's plurality is like, a pretty big factor in his character!!!! it's one of the bigger points vriska uses to bully him with (because she's projecting because she's projecting because she's projecting, because she's also plural and kins mindfang), it's like. a big thing that he has to cope with and figure out.
kanaya suggested tavros treat his self-confidence as his own brain guy, like, completely sincerely. she genuinely thought it would help, and it sorta did!!!!!
and like
Tumblr media
it is FAR from the only positive example of plurality in the comic.
Tumblr media
like. look at sollux and aradia defending "alternate reality copies" of characters -- which can be pretty easily extrapolated to them talking about fictives
Tumblr media Tumblr media
like. !!!!
i dunno, man. i think that homestuck is a DEEPLY plural story. you should read mtm and kgtac for more exploration of these themes. read detective pony too while you're at it. like.
i havent even TOUCHED on horuss or dirk or karkat here because there is just so much. there's so much! like ultselves. oh my god i completely neglected to talk about ultselves or cherubs or --
augh
but anyway here's The Screenshots from mtm
Tumblr media Tumblr media
homestuck is, like, the single most fictive compatible fictional work i've ever read.
"oh im being sent to another universe as a brain ghost? that happened to my buddy dirk"
"oh im one of many incarnations of myself, and perhaps not even the most 'canon compliant' one? haha dream bubbles moment"
"ive been isekai'd into another world? lol sburb"
it. yeah. god. i could literally talk about this all day. but instead im gonna direct you to my ao3.
check out no metaphors and then scroll through the "multiplicity/plurality" tag on my page
and if youve got more specific stuff, send in another ask!

CBS Ghosts - Pilot - Ghosts on the Accident
OOOOH the reaction to Sam’s accident.  
Please note, some of my commentary mentions things for throughout both seasons of the show so far.
Gifs and discussion below.
Tumblr media
Okay - when did the ghosts gather?  When Jay went running out of the room?  When the ambulance showed up?  When?  Also, is Alberta missing in this scene?  Is Sass?  How ARE THEY NOT THERE?  Like this is a BIG EVENT - ALL of the ghosts should be there.
ANYWHO.
It’s AMAZING how attached Hetty became in just a short while to Sam.  She went from “ew I hope we’re not related” to “Eh, she’s nice” to “How dare you murder my kin - I love her” real fast.  
I can’t believe she accuses Trevor of murder though - Trevor is NOT the murdering kind, Hetty.  Literally, Alberta has buried bodies, Flower has chased down runners, Thor’s an actual murderer, and big spoilers here: your son (should be grandson) murdered one of your own and you’re accusing him without letting him explain???? RUDE.
Side note, Pete raised his hands to stop her and potentially step in.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I LOVE that Trevor defends himself.  He looks SO YOUNG and AFRAID, but like he does with the ‘embarrassment’ conversation - he stands up for himself.  He just wanted to beat the vase - he wasn’t thinking about Sam or anyone else getting hurt.  He just wanted to win - and he would never hurt anyone.  
This moment right here is when it became clear that Trevor was far too innocent (might not be the right word) and kind to really be the image he projects.  
Poor kid.  
Also, one thing to note - I think he’s afraid that he might’ve caused Sam to die young because he absolutely reliving his own death.  As the most recently dead, there’s no way that he’s not flashing back to his death.  
OMG that makes Hetty accusing him of murder & the situation where everyone’s looking at him like he’s guilty SO MUCH WORSE.
For some reason, I don’t have a gif of Pete saying that he’s right and defending him, but I know he did it and I’m SO GLAD that Trevor has back up because no one else was going to give him the benefit of the doubt and that just bites.
Trevor deserves better.
Tumblr media
Okay - when did Jay change?  Did he leave Sam to change?  
Also, Thor - Husband guy = sad, of course he is!  Sam’s nearly dead and might not make it!  Why wouldn’t he be sad.
Tumblr media
OOOOh - Isaac makes a good point - they fought over this dumbass rundown house and he would feel SO GUILTY if she didn’t make it.  Like fighting over the house and then she dies - ouch.  Anyway, I can’t imagine how terrified Jay is right now.  
Side note - what did the ghosts in the shed/basement think about these events?
Poor Jay.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love this tidbit about Flower.  We learn right away that she cares deeply for Ira and that he was WITH her when she ‘wandered over to the property’.  
Also, it’s so weird how connected she is to Ira only for her to later say ‘she’s got commitment issues, man’.  
Side note, she tries to cover up Ira’s feelings for her with “also, bear.”  So...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, we learn something about Pete, too.  
A) Married to Carol
B) Fought with her the day he died. 
Pete looks so chill talking about the fight with Carol and just sitting there like... life lesson quietly.  
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
OMG this Speech about how you never know when the last moment is going to be and how important it is.  And it’s SO GOOD seeing Sam&Jay - particularly Jay as Jay goes through hell watching her go through all these things and just HOPING that she makes it through.
Side note - obviously, it’s the show so they wouldn’t hire Jay’s parents/sister for this one scene, but with knowing that ALL Bela did was send some flowers, I have to wonder if he went through this alone?  Because they could’ve just mentioned his family supporting him in through this.
In fact, based off the off-hand remarks about the money, I assume that his parents were less than supportive - I really, really want more on that.  
Poor Jay, though.
ANYWAY, that’ll come later.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
OOOOOKAYYYYYY.  So, Pete ruins a fantastic speech by remembering what the fight was about - which that’s one of the dumbest fights to have and not resolve.  
This tells us ALOT about Carol/Pete - they fought about something small, didn’t bother to make up and then he died.  He says he thinks that she did it to spite him because ‘she didn’t even like donut holes’, and we know she was cheating, but you have to wonder - how did they get there?  How did a 16 year marriage get to that kind of place?  
Also, knowing what we know about Pete ‘taking it’, I wonder if they both had like a score card?  I wonder when things fell apart?  I wonder if Carol was as hurt that Pete died after such a pointless fight?  I really want to know.
Tumblr media
OOOOOOH, Side note - is this the only time Hetty uses a shortened name?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
LOL - Pete’s just like “Okay, calm down - anyway, life is precious” like he didn’t just spaz about donut hole fights.  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
LMAO - what an ending - Thor is like “Donut holes?”  and Pete is just like “It’s - well, nothing...”
Still, this scene gave us good info on Trevor, Pete, and Flower - the youngest ghosts whose deaths are the closest all have stronger reactions to what happened.  
Pete & Flower talking about their deaths in some detail.  
Trevor looks white as a sheet, very freaked out in the beginning about possibly causing Sam’s death.  He absolutely doesn’t want someone to be dead because of him.  Poor Trev has been through it.
Thanks for reading :). Feel free to chat about it.

WARNING FULL SPOILERS OF BEENOSE STORY INCLUDE VISIONS OF SHADOW, ETC., DEATH.
So umm I think beenose is very underrated character because she didn't get many multiple animator projects about it focus on her. ( in aware there one that had a map a bit based on her call b*tch b*tch b*tch| Sleekpaw, Needlepaw, Beepaw complate multiple animator project (MAP). Hosted by stationpass), idk if it get deleted or private or just invisible to my YouTube account due to strict settings. But it didn't show up on youtube. And that multiple animator project is more focus on the days where both Beepaw [beenose], Sleekpaw [sleekwhisker], Needlepaw [Needletail] when they used to be a bratty apprentices towards the gathering. Before people say: "oh there beenose map part about her." Did she had a few peeps animated? her. yes, but most of them are focus on her death scene where she get drowned by darktail on a lake or either a inaccurate scene (unless it a alternative universe or it scripts on purpose?) sleekwhisker and darktail drowned her on lake when it only darktail drowned her on the lake to death where he kill his victims or her as a background. I need a multiple animator project or picture music video (PMV). And Animation Music Video or animatic or storyboard or speed paints videos about her that focus on her story. Like she is very tragic girl who once get manipulated wrong path by her friends that chosed to be dark tail rogue gang (The Kin) at apprentices age. And once used to be a sassy bratty bossy girl before redemption where there war where she left the kin to come back to shadowclan and talk to rowanstar/rowanclaw. And then Violetpaw notice that She (Beenose) left the kin because she isn't appear in the battle fight and talk to Needletail about it. And then later after that beenose get found by darktail and then get killed by drowning assassination by darktail on the same lake where he drown his victims. And about berryheart witness her deaths. And she also later get summoned by tree on the same lake spot where she die about he (tree) ask her about if yarrowleaf is in starclan at the time where yarrowleaf is missing. She was once like a grey morally misunderstood misguided but not (or maybe?) A victim maybe neutral mix of bad and good bc since she only redemption arc a few after left the kin but then die. Anyway she derseve much better. Hope she be popular in the future just like needletail and sleekwhisker, darktail get the popularity spot light stage. Also fun fact beenose is related family (I think as a aunt) to needletail.

on your recent statements I have two semi questions-
1. are there any groups not known to be harmful? how are people collaborating to better understand this stuff?
2. if one does unknowingly end up in one of these harmful groups, what should they do?
The two types of groups I've found to not be harmful are a) groups that don't impose one way of shifting, meaning that different views and beliefs are allowed, and b) groups that are very reality focused and place little focus on the supernatural. Neither should be packs or "family-focused", they should be more like online forums for shifters to talk in, and physically shifting (or escaping one's humanity) should not be the goal of the group in question. The mod team should be able to deal with the standard issues that might arise moderating a forum such as people looking to cause confusion, kicking out trolls and creeps, discouraging dangerous ideas, etc. Skeptics should be allowed to enter and talk, provided they're following the rules and not harassing members. (Note: by non-harmful I mean not encouraging unhealthy practices, forcing rituals or "making people shifters" or generally being cultish.)
It also shouldn't need to be said, but the groups should also be free of racism, sexism, ableism, queerphobia, suicide-baiting, etc. It should also be free of dodgy behavior - nobody should be asking for say, nude pictures of you or wanting you to do inappropriate things to others. These aren't shifter-specific issues, but if a group has these problems it's just unhealthy irregardless of shifting being there.
A good example of A would be a site like Kin-Walkers, or WerewolfsWebsite. Both sites were open to a variety of views and members (preventing an echo chamber), and although shifting was a focus of both sites, the physical world was just as important. You had members talking about finding time for the supernatural in-between school and work, or how to navigate adult life as a were, and becoming balanced with one's animal side. Kin-Walkers was just as focused on spirituality and shamanism, so for some that was something that preoccupied them more than shifting physically.
This group style might be undesirable for people who are less interested in the wider supernatural though, or who want a purely rational, scientific explanation for shifting. They also might let in individuals who are a little bit "out there" from time to time, so if you have a low tolerance for what might be termed "fluffy" behavior, that might not be a group for you.
A good example of B would be Werewolf-Shifters amino, or the old I am a Real Werewolf group of Experience Project. Although shifters were there, shifting was considered an undesirable trait, and most dissuaded people from even romanticizing it. Most shifters saw themselves as human, shifting was a rare event (if it ever happened at all) and most lived as humans and emphasized human lives. When shifting was talked about, it was talked about in almost purely scientific terms - you can't be turned or changed, it's likely genetic, it coincides with the end of puberty, you can't decide when to shift, etc. Because of this, many of the conversations in these groups trend towards ordinary life matters instead of strictly focusing on the supernatural.
This group style might be good for those who like a more scientific approach to shifting, though a lot in these groups tend to be older and prone to being a bit skeptical of newer concepts as a result. (Ex. many are skeptical of therians/otherkin, plurals, pop-culture pagans, etc.) If you're not fond of being grilled or queried on these things, that might not be a group for you.
Generally, if you can find a shifting forum or group that isn't a pack, you're onto a great start.
If you do unknowingly end up in an unhealthy, harmful, or toxic group... first, you should try to leave as soon as possible. If it's a discord server or forum, find the best way to leave and do it all at once. Delete all your posts if you can, and get screenshots of any offending behavior if necessary. If you know the times the mods tend to come on, find the time when they're not on, and do what you can to erase your identity. Block all the members if you have to, if you're afraid they might try to contact you or harass you.
If people are pressuring you to do dangerous substances or rituals, or recommending them, bring it up on the forum or tell the mods. In a healthy group this is usually swiftly dealt with, in harmful groups they aren't.
If they have information on you that might be compromising (such as addresses, photos, or other ID) and they intend to use it against you, get their info, block them and report them to the authorities - what they're doing may be illegal at that point. It might also be good to inform anybody that you know and trust, since they might be able to help you through it. If the group plans to contact others with the photos to humiliate you, get to those people first and tell them what's going on - that way if that group tries contacting them, it has no effect.
If you know the group in person, my advice is much the same, but with a stronger focus on contacting the police, since they're more likely to be useful here.
Remember, being a shifter doesn't excuse any harmful or bad behavior. Even if someone proves their claims 100% and seems sincere, that doesn't give them the right to manipulate you or abuse you.
I'd also encourage you to check yourself and see if you're doing fine in a particular group. Even if it isn't objectively harmful, some groups just don't work well for certain people, and that's fine. If it's an otherwise healthy group, it should allow you to leave without much fuss.

Burning Desert: Cal Chapter I [SFW]
Tumblr media
Note: Here is a teaser of the first chapter of our Scaled Bonds Project. Full chapter will be posted on our Patreon when we launch in April, and there will b SFW and NSFW versions available depending on your selected Tier. 
Warnings: Mentions of war, force imprisonment, death,
Full version and NSFW [only for top 3 tiers] available HERE
Cal strolled, the bundle of heads hanging from each of his hands. He had killed many today, and that was a worthy gift. Cal felt excitement around his success. While the village they had raided wasn’t as big as he had hoped, there was plenty of plunder and a good reward for his efforts. The human had no chance. While this was a planet where technology was not so far behind, none could compare physical strength with the Xan’tlians. However, they had provided enough challenges to make him proud of his efforts. His kin was taller and larger than the humans, their bodies covered with thick scales that were hard to piers. Humans were soft and their muscles smaller.
He approached the place where the War Master had made his quarters. Other warriors had already brought their ‘gifts’ and requested an exchange for a reward, but Cal hoped none of them was as successful as he was. Some would call in arrogance, but he was good at what he was doing, and anyone who disputed that was welcome to challenge him.
The War Master was sitting behind an improvised desk, a massive pile of heads behind him. As expected, Cal wasn’t the first to contribute. Still, experience showed him that the first usually took only one or two heads. He had seventeen in his grip. Decapitating your enemy was considered a great honor. It required skill beyond piercing someone with a weapon or simply shooting at them. He knew he had taken more than seventeen lives today, but those were the ones that counted, and he was fine with that. 
“Good hunting, I see.” The War master smiled as he pointed with his long yellow finger and counted the heads while Cal held them. “Seventeen, one of the best counts I have seen today.”
“It’s worth the extra effort.” He smiled, and his long tongue licked his scaled lips. He had not seen himself in a mirror but could taste the blood on his skin. It had been a long but successful day. 
“Gold, goods, or flesh?” The Warmaster asked as Cal tossed the heads behind him. 
He had thought long about this one. When he was a bit younger, his logic had always been to take the gold and spend it as he saw fit. But his perspectives in life were changing a bit. Those who ignored the gold had the opportunity to put their claws on better spoils, and he would taste his theory. 
“Split it between the three.” Cal’s response surprised the War Master, but he just input something on his wrist computer. 
“The gold is transferred, the goods are displayed next to the ships, you can take a quarter of a load, and the flesh you will find behind the ruined building. I believe it was these people’s temple. You can pick one from holding three, two from holding four, or three from holding five.” He moved his orange eyes to the next warrior behind Cal, signaling the conversation was over. 
This was his favorite part of the conquest, or at least his second favorite. He enjoyed the killing, the screaming, and the brutality of the battle. His kin were warriors and fighters, they made poor farmers or builders, but that was why the gods had gifted them with the ability to conquer others and take what they needed.
Long ago, their ancestors discovered that if their kin could not do a task, they could simply conquer someone and put them to it. Humans were perfect for that. Some of them were strong, and while their strength could not be compared to Xan’tlians, they did good farmers, builders, smiths, house servants, and night companions. The War Masters rewarded soldiers based on how well they did in battle. Those who died received nothing, and those who killed many enemies got nicer rewards. 
Cal had decided that he would go for the nicest for his flesh reward. Often that meant the healthiest, strongest or most attractive from the tribes they had conquered. He still could dispose of the human later, but he was excited about trying this whole new strategy on how he saw his loot. 
The holding areas were just where the War Master said, behind the ruined temple or whatever that building was. There were several of them, all looking more like cages with tall metal bars and electricity running through them. It was simple but effective. None of the humans dared approach. Each holding had a guard next to the entrance, but it wasn’t to keep the humans in, but rather to ensure that whoever went in was supposed to be there.

Day 2: Yokai | Festivals | Samurai
@hashimada-week
Madara the kasha and Hashirama Senju's ninmenju.
Some kasha "[...] were depicted as hairy cat-like creature with long wing-like ears, smooth stomache and long claws." [x]
"The waq waq tree of Islamic folklore is very similar to the ninmenju. This tree was described as bearing fruit shaped like humans and animals. The fruit could speak, but would die a few days after being picked." [x]
A two-fer! Originally, I was originally only going to draw the right but drawing Kasha!Madara to go with it just seemed like too much fun to let go. But then the ninmenju tree turned into a much bigger project than I had planned for so I'm still working on that now. (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ) I'll be back with the completed tree later~
My thoughts/lore under the cut.
I got inspired to make Mads a kasha because a) he's got cat causing problems vibes and b) because of one of the later prompts for Hashimada week, 'katon', so I was very happy to make him a fire breathing demon cat that steals corpses, tying him once again with the theme of death as he spins his scythe in his humanoid form. Instead of taking corpses/souls to hell, instead, the fresher human corpses are the only substance his kind can feed on and this time he's taken Hashirama's recently deceased brother, Itama.
In Hashirama's attempt to retrieve his kin's body, their battle comes to a stalemate, so instead Hashirama offers a trade. In return for his brother's body and if Madara gives his word that he stops his thieving ways, he can feed instead on his own flesh in the form of the fruit from his ninmenju tree for as long as his immortal tree stands. The fruit from this tree had Hashirama's face, green leaf colored hair, yellow eyes and a fatuous voice. The fruit is sweet, savory, and a touch sour, like peaches and pork, far more flavorful then the human flesh Madara was accostumed to, and Madara is surprised by Hashirama's honesty and generosity. He is appeased by the offer and shrewdly accepts. Forced to see each other more and more they go from foes, to rivals, to friends and eventually more.
Thank you for reading! As my thanks, here's another nice video about folkloric trees!

💛 - if you are comfortable sharing, what is your headcount? do you keep track of it? / 📼 - do you have any non-human alters? if yes, which species are the majority of them? / 🌱 - do you have a headspace? if yes, describe it! if no, do you want one?
finally getting around to these 💛 - honestly No Idea at this point. there are about 5-7 ppl who front super regularly. We Think. there might be more, its hard to tell. there are definitely More who likely front less often and are more like. internally-inclined? idk how to put that. but we havent actually taken the time to do any sort of Count. and i feel like it could fluctuate wildly over time (it has before). so Who Knows. mayb we should start that 📼 - literally none of the members of our system identify as like. Human. all of us have weird kin shit going on that is EXTREMELY prevalent for us in terms of identity/gender stuff, but which we pretty rarely Actually talk about. one of the things that complicates this, though, is that while there are Patterns that we have wrt what forms/kin things/etc each system member Tends to gravitate towards, none of those are set in stone and All of the 'usual' things span multiple 'species' or whatever you want to call them. so like. we have a lot of yknow. forms/gender/kin stuff that are Robots, Object Heads, Monsters, Aliens, Objects In General (especially living swords or machines), Furries, Plushes, Pooltoys, Balloon Dogs, Cryptids, Suits (think like. lethal company employees or HUNK from resident evil), etc. etc. etc. etc. and different system members might stray more towards some of those forms than others, but its honestly all over the place and is really confusing to keep track of. which is part of the reason we rarely talk about kin stuff at all (the other big reason being shame/embarrassment, but thats a different issue) but essentially it boils down to 1. figuring out who the fuck is even fronting 2. figuring out what form or kin or w/e that person is feeling like and both of those can switch multiple times even on a single day so the short answer i guess is: none of use ID as human In The Slightest, but as for What we are, its fucking complicated 24/7
🌱 - yes, but its been something thats been a lot fuzzier as of recent, and we generally feel less-inclined to try and mess with it these days (always feels like a waste of time, even though it can be helpful; it used to be) our headspace has Weird mechanics and is weirdly consistent. we've always been pretty naturally good at like. mapping/figuring out Physical Spaces and such, so i guess that makes sense, but it's been wild to describe it to other plural folks w/ headspaces and have them essentially go "no mine isnt like that at all, what the fuck" we have actually based a couple of different writing projects around it (Prismic Sanctum and Oubliette specifically, both are older projects not currently updating, but still worth a potential read) and continue to mess with it as a worldbuilding concept here and there if i had to boil it down: it's a massive collection of various areas that are all in a consistent layout, that could be mostly mapped out with cardinal directions. so like, if you travel North from Area A, you end up in Area B. you will Always end up there. same thing with traveling through doors, etc. some spaces are vague about distance (like the forest between the mass of highways hanging over a void and the big ashen wasteland; traveling through it has different, inconsistent travel times) but Directions are pretty much always set in stone, even then. physical space also doesnt always make sense. you may go to the 2nd floor of a 4-story apartment building, find a trapdoor in an apartment, go up into it, and end up in a castle that cant physically exist at the same time as the apartment building. but, that trapdoor will ALWAYS lead to that place, so locations are just about Always consistent the type of locations also vary wildly. often theyre either places that are possible in the real world but a bit Off (like an elementary school where gravity outside/on the playground is reversed so you can fall into the sky, or a mansion where the physical space is larger or smaller in comparison to you depending on what doors you walk through), or, theyre entirely surreal spaces that are completely impossible (like the aforementioned clump of many highways suspended over a black void that are lit by yellow streetlights, or the basement thats several miles wide with varying ceiling heights, or the motel where every room leads to some different, impossible space) it can be genuinely fun and interesting to """""Explore""" it, even though i know its just our brain generating all the weird spaces. its like one of those homemade TTRPG games that you play by yourself, where even though a Lot of it is coming from your own imagination, its still fun to mess around with

not really a drawing request but id love to know more about your ocs??? from what you’ve posted they look amazing??
Thank you VERY much!!! i forgot how much i love to talk about them
(sorry for the old art or picrews, i am too excited to not talk about them and simultaneously not patient enough to redraw them)
All picrew links: Kit + Kevín + Lilly Annalise Piper + Cecily Mikael + Claire Princeton
here's a general overview of everything that exists:
Tumblr media
-------------
part 1: em groups
you should at least be vaguely familiar with my em. every single au and whatever hetalia character i feel like grabbing for that day goes in there. interesting little tidbit that somehow hasn't come up so far is that in more human AUs of mine he's part irish! ~20% of icelandic males and 60% of females actually have irish/keltic ancestry!!! ireland being his mom hc is going WILD in me. he's also very magic because that headcanon singlehandedly started the ice obsession in me. how well in tune he is with it and how exactly it looks like depends on the au . i also make him closer friends with swe and fin because i can👍
(excerpt from my em content dedicated whatsapp group with just my (non-hetalia) best friend and me: )
Tumblr media
le is there a lot because i love him so so much. incredibly phoenix coded man
there's also monaco, gwendolyn or gwenny to me. she's a permanent resident because i support women's rights (slaying) and wrongs (gambling addictions)
a notable not fully formed character is faroe islands! petra sometimes, emma other times. i genuinely don't know where those names come from. i heard the faroe islands and iceland being referred to as "kind of like twins" and as each othere's "best friends" *somewhere* and i am VERY normal about that too. oh SO normal
part 2: mikael's world
a fusion of 2 groups put into one world, connected by one flimsy tie. it's mostly analogous to real life but no homophobia👍
Group A: Pentagon
Tumblr media
Mikael started out as a swedish micronation oc but we don't talk about that. he has a chicken called omelette because of inside jokes during... my wattpad era... shudders. i project onto him a lot and lots of his design is just wish fullfillment. while i love my ocs suffering and angst, because i put so much of myself in him, ultimately, his story is one of healing. major point of difference between us though is that his parents abandoned him and mine... didn't.do.that. 💀👍
Claire and Piper both actually started out as minecraft skins i made for fun!! and then i made them kith:3
Cecily and Kit were added becaue i felt like something was missing to complete the friendgroup!
Group B: menace club
Tumblr media
Kevín and Lilly are my ACNL and ACNH side accounts...... and Annalise was some pretty trans woman i drew one day there's nothing much to this
Part 3: D&D
so.. confession: i haven't actually played d&d yet! but my friends love it a lot, i love a couple ttrpg podcasts so.. yeah i have a couple concepts!
The Leighlar Pilayden, or blueberry bitchfuck as i like to call him, Half Elf sorcerer who was abandoned as a babg and raised in a cult which, in a world with multiple deities, somehow ended up believing in the *one* that doesn't exist! he's a sorcerer but they all think his powers a blessing from their god
Tumblr media
MY BABY MY SOBBING WET CAT SON! PRINCETON INTEKONA!!!
TIEFLING BARD I might get to play as him soon... negative strength, the only reason he has such a high charisma stat is because everyone pitties him... he accidentally ended up in a criminal gang... he plays the pan flute and bagpipes... pathetic baby
Part 4: Miscellaneous
All the Characters that are alone in their worlds!
Tumblr media
(^aesthetic wise but he definitely kins larry)
Brian is the brain cell a friend and i are sharing and also the last one we have. he's a SOO overworked office worker. he has to handle EVERYTHING he's so exhausted please give him a break. he recently got a boyfriend. good for my him
Recently re-named Ailbhe used to be Avery and is a genderless, fully white skinned(as in colour not the skin colour we associate with the word. imagine porcelaine!) and neon yellow haired fallen angel/ex-demi-god!! not much lore but... lots of potential!!
Tumblr media
Firenze is... idk he just happened in one history lesson in 2018 and now he's here. bunny boy with lots of responsibilities around the palace!!!
-------------
and ... phew. i THINK that's it? mostly? oh my god. if. there's anyone you wanna know more about... tell ME

Seeing a version of him and knowing he's not mine.. that I may never find mine.. it's not. It's not important, y'know, I've come to terms with how unlikely it is with other kins, considering how many are noncanon or pretty canon divergent but. I was in love with him. And I can't remember if he ever loved me the same. As his closest friend, he did, I know that much. I want to say we were together but. Is that wishful thinking? Or were we actually? Perhaps we were like B and his partner, never really putting a name to it despite it being obvious.
I wish there were more kins from this source on Tumblr, but all I can find are a few asks sent to this blog.. I feel alone again. Like when him and his brothers all left, and only us three remained. And we did our best to keep each other afloat. But, of course, B started pushing me away when he realized the guys weren't coming back. When I stopped being able to come up for reasons why they hadn't returned.
But I understood, still do. I was a constant reminder of what wasn't around so. I left. Went Somewhere in the middle of nowhere, and I lived there for a while. It was safe, and it was lonely.. and it was quiet. But it helped me forget when I was on my own. I could keep myself busy and not have time to think of anything but the next project. But then one day he was just... There. I don't even know how he managed to get there. But..
I'm sorry you found me in that state.. my friend. That I let myself loose my color and forget what it was like to be happy.. but being around you and learning about who you'd become.. it helped so much. You always helped so much just by being around, and it was nice to live together and do work together. You were a horrible cook lol, but. It only added to your charm.
And then they took you... And that entire situation happened and you died. You actually literally died... You came back but. I will never forget that pain. I will never forget the way I swore I couldn't even feel my own heart beating and the way the tears stung my eyes as they forced themselves out... I hope you don't remember that part. How it felt. I hope you have good memories in this life, and aren't in pain.
And y'know, as horrible as everything was and is... I've always really liked your hair. And the new color was no exception /lh
