Give it up for number 10! Brutish 💪♥

Immediately thought of the “Mom” tattoo when I saw this prompt! researching the gruffness for the subterranean prompt really worked out. But I also like how his body, clothes, and the shading turned out. Very much in love with the overall vibe off this guy 😍. One of the best so far I think.

He may look very intimidating, but he’s actually very nice when you get to know him! Really tough and strong guys wear their heart on their sleeve, even when they are wearing tanktops !

N...Neopets AU Hyden......bro would be the first cybunny to end up in the Gallery of Evil

Gallery of Evil - Lord Hyden

Lord Hyden was advisor and high court wizard to Lord Darigan, serving under him alongside Lord Kass during the events of Champions of Meridell. Scheming, duplicitous, and power-hungry, the Cybunny advisor had his own motives, playing the two against each other and eventually assisting Kass during his hostile takeover of Darigan Citadel. However, when Kass fell and the citadel was reclaimed, Lord Hyden was nowhere to be found.

Some say he was defeated during the battle. Others say Lord Darigan sentenced him to jail for his crimes during the war and that he is currently being held in a high-security prison cell deep within the citadel. Still others claim he fled after his betrayal was discovered and is currently living in disguise, hiding somewhere in Neopia.

Some years after his disappearance, rumors began to circulate of a powerful Kyrii wizard taking up residence in an old castle in the Haunted Woods. It is said that he offers travelers dark spells in return for signing dubious magical contracts. Could there be any relation...?

Additional period-appropriate art of this totally real Neopets character. First is him during his Darigan years with his evil bride Milana... er, "mate", sorry child-friendly censors! Second is him post Mutant Kyrii-fication, lording over his "neutral gray with transparent black shading" evil castle in the Haunted Woods.

#neopets #neotag #neopets art #darigan #cybunny #kyrii #thank you anon this restored my hit points and art vigor after a long period of malaise #an excuse to do Neopets style emulations! One of my favorite things! Had fun making them a bit janky. #Cybunny is great for him but I can't deny that Mutant Kyrii is even better #it's a big hulking brutish blue orb with an aquiline nose and big rectangular black eyebrows #so he gets to be both :) #my ocs #hyden #milana #style emulation #...the period appropriate art is supposed to be smaller but it was blurry on the dashboard so here's a slightly bigger version #(it looks better smaller)

Hello! Just found your Tumblr today via someone reblogging part of butcher!Simon, I absolutely love the series, and I can't wait to go snuffle through all your other stories. 😊

Also, I don't know if you saw the post going around a while back about "Keep Your Dog on a Leash", but parts of it definitely remind me of butcher!Simon:

hi!! tysm for enjoying 🖤

that post definitely encapsulates Simon. he who forgoes his autonomy in favour of your welfare, abasing himself to a mindless animal that barks, yips, or attacks in your name. i love it. the primitive possessiveness of it all, Simon’s ability to switch between a behemoth with bared teeth around others and a pliable pet around you…… i cant

#orions talks #this is so knight simon i love knight simon #big and brutish and his status cant help him #hes so used to being flattened under someones authorotative foot #that he cant even separate himself from ‘duty’ when your romance blooms #he is YOUR DOG #he IS your dog… HE IS A DOG #blindly loyal and potentially aggressive and almost dangerously passionate

Put off reading Kushiel's Legacy thinking it would be vaguely racist harem-fantasy BDSM smut in high fantasy dressing. Instead I got feminist George R. R. Martin if he was less racist and skeezy.

You need to take notes to follow all the names and I can barely keep up with who's doing what and the author has never heard of cutting to the goddamn chase, but good God you get so invested in the characters within a hundred pages that it sends you reeling when they die. I'm only at 200 out of 500 pages but I'm so fucking gutted that I stopped reading to skim the rest of all three books to see whether any of my other favourites were going to die and who I should be braced for dying because good fucking god. I'm even heartbroken about characters that died before the book!

It really sneaks up on you because this book is so dense and crammed with so much detail that you don't realize you've begun to really love the characters. The fuckton of foreshadowing probably didn't register because they're front and center like main characters would be, so you're not prepared for them to die in the middle. And Phedre lives such a happy, sheltered life that it's a genuine shock when it all gets blown up.

I want them back. I like Joscelin, but he isn't them. Jacqueline Carey how could you. 😭😭😭😭😭

Oh btw, this series is also gay as shit. Heterosexuality doesn't seem to exist and it's so unremarkable it didn't even occur to me that this is a full-on LGBT series. It's not like in fanfic, when even in stories where queerness is universal and unremarked in-universe there might as well be a giant fuck you rainbow flag over it all. In Kushiel's Universe it's just so matter-of-fact that you realize this could actually have been what society was like in the past when the Church wasn't all up in everybody's business. Sure, in this universe there's a hippie Jesus that followed regular Jesus who was all flower power and free love and founded alternate universe France, so that nobody has any sexual hang ups, homo or otherwise (much like regular medieval France Ig), but even if there were, everybody's either too rich to give a shit or too poor to care (also like regular medieval France). It feels historically accurate somehow. Idk. But this book came out in 2001. Eat that, GRRM, with your two male gays and off-screen lesbians.

Edit: Just checked the AO3 tag and. Sigh. You know a book isn't trashy when it only has 350 works on AO3. Fanfic runs on trash and guilty pleasure, not sensitive and quality story-telling.

#asiof is trashy dont @ me #GRRM might have a meticulously plotted universe but he's also really gross about female characters #and just...trashy. he just dresses it up as Realism™ #killing characters to show that life is small and brutish and everyone is a self-interested asshole is not high art #it's just being an edgelord #kushiel's dart #kushiel's legacy #jacqueline carey #high fantasy #book recommendations #knee of huss

(mgv) oh i've got one for you guys. wilson having a Very Bad Day and coming home like a single disappointed look away from bursting into tears. house lets him mope for ten minutes before he leaves him alone in the living room with a grumble. after a while he comes back out, sees wilson with his head in his hands, and bonks him with the handle of his cane to get his attention. "c'mere," is all he says before he starts leading wilson to the bedroom. wilson tries to complain that he wants to be left alone but house just keeps Staring Expectantly at him so he relents.

the sight of a new nest makes him stand there and blink (how tf did he put it together so fast) but house nudges him, almost shoving him into it. usually when alphas are in nests, it's in the company of an omega, and they never ever are in them before the omega who makes them are -- if anything, the omega has to be in it and receptive to the alpha before the alpha is even allowed in it -- even among bonded couples. so when faced with a nest barren of body, wilson instinctively is like "uh?? UH??"

but house just steamrolls over his stuttering and puts his weight on wilson's back so wilson has to work harder to resist touching it as all the warning bells are going off in his hindbrain. and house just leers right in his ear, "you know you wanna. i made it just for you."

it's then that wilson starts tearing up for real. house has complained about how intensive the process of nest building can be, how it aggravates his leg, what a generally disruptive urge it is, but..... but he still weaved one just to bring wilson some comfort. he even holds back from making any jokes when wilson's whine takes on a wheezy note due to the tears.

#house md #hilson #crybaby wilson my beloved save me weeping wilson #house being a secret schmoopster my other beloved #alphas (men especially) are held to the standard of being brutish so sometimes the softer ones just Really Be Going Through It #looked down on for being emotional (“crying like a meg” is a common insult slung around for example) #house kind of hates building them sometimes but wilson doesn't like the deconstruction part #if it wasn't for the dirty laundry he'd be like can we keep it up another day at least :( #mgv

on that thought, its frustrating as a batman/comics fan-writer b/c all these diff representations of characters across DECADES got me so confused on how to write these people b/c every writer has a diff take. whereas with manga/anime, it's just one guy writing or at least just one team.

with manga/anime im kinda more of a canon snob...... but after a month of batfam writing girl this shit is hard............ i dont blame ppl for just writing the batfam with WFA personalities at least everyone feels distinct ihfosdjodsi.

ive never done so much studying to write characters like i have with this gihdfsifg ive read so many runs and still feel confused....

#controversial but dick and tim come off as very similar to me and im self conches about it showing in my writing #dick is just more light hearted mischievous #like a jester #tim is more snarky. #like a gamer #damian is very distinct and lowkey gives anime princely archetype #with jason im struggling to tell how 'brutish' is too brutish with him #he seems quite calm but maybe thats me preferring men who are calmer LOL

Ok, I've been loving all these asks, and I really love your art, but so far all I've seen Freya do is fawn over Glen. What does she do when he's not around? What's she really like most of the time? Details, Parker, I need those pictures of Spider-Man

Aaaw, thank you for your kind words! ☺️ I'm glad u like my nonsensical scribbles haha. This question seems like it was posed to me and not a character, so I will give you a meta answer!

Freya is the party's damage dealer! While Harry and Glen are hindered in their fighting effectiveness, Freya can be trusted to smite enemies with brute-force. She can also trigger temporary status effects... but its up to chance whether they will aid the party or the enemy.

#ask #WICK'S END #freya ferguson #freya #oc #tbh i fleshed out the story more as a hypothetical 'story mode to an RPG' in mind #but alas i am a mediocre comic maker and no game dev #oh whoops i just realized the ask was what she's like when they're not around #lol sorry uhhhh #she has a brutish exterior and tries to suppress the truth that she likes girly thing #it's like her pride as a barbarian yknow #she likes a lot of hobbies but is terrible at them #she likes long baths eat hot chip and lie

Thank you

I think this is the first time I've seen someone turn around the argument used for protecting culprits.Because not only are victims open to a second assault by released culprits, the victims have families too.

What do you mean "guilty by association" when there are people who are "damaged by association"? Who should we care about more? The family of culprit or the family of the victim? If the vigilante is trying to bring justice and your push back is "think of the family of the culprit", why don't you also think of the family of the victim?

This is just an expression of how much the law doesn't care about the weak. Yes, there are people who do not deserve the stigma of being linked to a killer/rapist. However, when those people are brought into the conversation, then the victim's family must enter the convo as well.

I memorized it during the summer of 2010 when I was completely out of anything to do. I don't keep it memorized anymore, it is too big for me to memorize and I've never written it down, though I have often looked it up. I like that number but I don't really use it. I can probably put that in the same category as those people who memorize prime numbers for fun. I am not especially proud of my memory.
