Another point in the hardworking ZBJ agenda is how whenever SWK is injured, ZBJ's the first on the scene healing and helping him. Dude's really like "id sell that BiMaWen out for a single corn chip <3" but SWK gets something in his eye and ZBJ's like "HOU'GE ARE YOU ALRIGHT???"
SO TRUE ANON. From what I understand the Red Boy arc is an important piece in the "Zhu Bajie complains all the time but works hard and cares deeply" agenda. It's definitely neat as well how much genuine growth there is in the relationship between Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong over the course of the journey too. Pig man and monkey man enemies to besties fr <3
The funniest thing to me is when culturally christian terminally online bitches think it's "pedophilia" or "sexualizing minors" to discuss (especially in fiction) the fact that many teenagers experience sexual attraction. I wonder how these people who freak out when a 14 year old fictional character is horny would react to the fact that I started experiencing sexual attraction when I was 10. I think it would break their brains.
Having been handed a manuscript, Ray Marlowe was giving it a dubious lookover when he stumbled across a certain passage and looked up from the book to squint at the one who'd given it to him.
"Assassins are evil in alignment (perforce, as the killing of humans and other intelligent life for the purpose of profit is basically held to be the antithesis of weal)."
"Urianger, my buddy. My pal. I kill humans and other intelligent life for purposes of profit all the time; it's half of what being an adventurer is. The other half is just archaeology where the bones try and kill you."
Urianger stroked his chin. "I suppose that was written when I was much younger and had more preconceived notions about the role of adventurers as compared to hired killers. i imagined them as much more like the gleaners, by trade."
Ray went back to reading "So this is a game you wrote back in the day, huh? About pretending to be wizards and assassins and knights and so on, instead of just actually being one. Interesting. Did you put in job stones so people could switch up if no one made a character for a particular party role, or would they just have to make a new...persona?"
Urianger shook his head. "I...had not considered that possibility." He reached for the manuscript. "Perhaps it is time for some revisions."
Ray offered it up, after flipping a few more pages. "Might not be a bad idea, but if you do, I'd definitely look into an editor, because, uh, that one sentence is the antithesis of weal all by itself."
can’t stop thinking about the experience i had at a party last night where an acquaintance who i haven’t seen in a while evidently got the Vibe TM that i’m not cis, didn’t want to call me by the wrong name, and just defaulted to very enthusiastically calling me by my last name for the whole night
the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
so my roommate is completely straight edge like no drugs no alcohol etc and so im sure y’all can imagine my surprise when i saw she brought home this sign
so i immediately inquired
and now you may ask. what the fuck did my roommate think that sign meant? well
anyways i moved the sign so it’s now front and center in our living room and ive been laughing every time i pass it
There's a user called Erika Horn (@erikahorn.art) on tiktok who made a "duet me" challenge so technically impressive that all of the duets are exactly like this LMAO
the 'all marriage is gay as far as im concerned' except its me watching a man and woman character in a show i like and accidentally saying 'theyre so gay' because i literally forget thats not the word for romance because to me all romance is gay
Keeper -- a short comic about an angel meeting a robotic lighthouse keeper that doesn't know the world has already ended. Made in about 18 hours for a 24-hour 24-page* black and white comic challenge (that I arrived late to, ha.)
*the actual submission does not include the cover, which was created after the fact for this post.
This was a really great learning experience as someone who's... never really made a completed comic. I ended up really attached to the story by the end of the project (possibly due to all-nighter deliriousness lol) and ultimately am very proud of what I made.There are some things I'd still like to change, particularly text placement, but in keeping with the spirit of the challenge I've elected to leave it as is.
