Yea idk how I haven't shared them here yet but here's some doodles of Tabitha and "Apathy" (she ain't got a name yet), the two protags of my ghost story!
Grieving after the sudden loss of her grandmother, Apathy accidentally becomes bound to the spirit of Tabitha, a young girl who was murdered in the 1870s. Stuck together in unfamiliar circumstances, the two must discover how to send Tabitha on to the afterlife, and if they even can.
UPDATEEEEEEEEE Apathy's name is Naomi :)
#i draw tabitha all cheery usually but she has a very very rough time at the start#very vengeful and confused and inconsolable and angry#as one would be if they were murdered#the first drawing was a couple months ago but the last drawing was from maybe like a year and a half ago?#so they look a lil different#i change their designs slightly every time i draw them lol#but yea i imagine this as an animated series!#its a love letter to the PNW (my home baybey) as well as like. my attempt to utilize the vehicle of horror for character exploration#if u know i love midnight mass and haunting of hill house then the mike flanagan jumps out immediately lmao#tabitha bennett#naomi evans#ghost girl story#i dont have a name for any of my stories either#i thought maybe of calling it 'mortis operandi'#but idk what their usual way of doing things would be to make the modus operandi part of the title make sense lol#also the tagline would be something like 'life after death for those who have lost someone and those who were lost'#so then i thought of calling it something like 'those who were lost' but ghosts are kinda a rarity in this universe so#it feels like that shouldnt be the focus of the title#idk im REALLY bad with titles#i think the character writing for these lil dudes that currently only exists in my brain is some of the best ive done tho#grabs u by the shoulders: talk to me about the irony that tabitha teaches apathy how to feel alive again despite being the one who's dead#my art#ocs

Paradise lost devils cuddle headcannons!
(I got bored and needed something fluffy. Maybe I'll make a series out of this but who knows. It would probably take me some time to finish it though)
Buer
- Definitely has super fluffy bedding,think fur blankets. In the winter,perfect. But if you're laying in them in summer,it's pure torture. That's why he changes them to shorter furs for comfort,though it's still quite hot,especially if you're cuddling.
-There are times when he would summon his contract-pet and you would both snuggpe up into it's side,making a very adorable cuddle pile
-He's no the type to express his real emotions often.If he wants cuddles,he'll make you belive,it was you who wanted cuddles and he's just being kind enough to give the them to you.
-His favorite position is hugging you from behind while you lay on something fluffy like animal fur. That way he can enjoy the fluff and your body at the same time!
-Will rub your sore muscles while you rest in his arms. When he's sure you're comftrable and safe,he starts chatting quietly with you. Asking you about your day,what you were up to...
-Sometimes his mind goes back into his doctor mode and he starts suggesting all the diffrent ways you could take care of your body and mind,which almost always leads to him rambling on and on. It is a very cute side of him,but makes you quite sleepy.
-And sometimes,when he had a long day,he just holds you in silence,his head buried deep in your hair. If you ask him on what happened,he would give you some vague answers. Please pat his head and squieeze him closer to yourself. Maybe talk to him about something fun and positive to lighten the mood. He will soon relax,feeling a bit better. He might just give you a smile,but this time it's a genuine one. Then he places a few kisses on your nose and cheeks before whispering how much he loves you.
Marbas
-With him you only have two options. Either let him be tied up and lie like a plank or release him and his clothes will fall off. Seriously,he is already a big amn yet somehow buys clothes which are even bigger than him to the point,the straps are the only thing that holds them up.
-In any case,he's making you lie on top of him. He's a pretty tall and wide man. Build like a matress. His muscles may seem a bit hard and uncomftrable to rest on but when he relaxes,his muscles are just like soft flesh. Warm and comfy. He's like a big teddy bear!
-He enjoys having something to hold him down,be it restraints or his partner (Especially if they're smaller than him which is not that hard).
-If you decide to keep hin restrainet,try to hug him from the side,one leg over his waist and keep your head on his shoulder. It warms his heart when he can feel your whole body against his.
-Will bury his face in your hair if he can reach it. Otherwise,he just watches you all night.
-Now if he's free and his clothes somehow don't fall off,he WILL take them off! Actually why don't you take them off too? You won't need them anyway. He can just warm you up with his body.
-In the end,both of you agree to only stay only in underwear while you cuddle.
-He still keeps you on his chest with the addition of his arms wrapped around you,making sure you don't fall off of him while you sleep.
Morax
-Just as you would imagine,he gives the best cuddles.
-When you cuddle,it's normally on the bed,snuggling in each other's arms,where you can have some proper rest. You from your daily troubles and Morax from spending his day,slowly destroying his body in attempt to help other devils.
-His favorite position is when he can wrap his arms around your torso and have his head on your chest while you play with his hair. He can listen to your gentle breathing and you can feel some part of his actual body and not the moist bandages that cover him.
-There are times when he would szart randomly bleeding. Either his bandages finally got soaked enough to leak or his wounds got open if you accidentally squeezed him too hard. Yea,you need to be very careful with this devil,even when he assures you he's fine and even tries to apoligise for ruining the sheets.
-At times like this you need to replace his bandages and give him a few kisses of reassurence. He will be all smily and blushing by the end. He's happy to have someone who cares and pampers him for a change. You give him a reason to be more mindful when healing someone,since he knows you hate seeing him in pain.
Gamigin
-Now with Gamigin,every cuddle just happens out of the blue.
-When he sees you laying down,it's his natural instinct to snuggle up to you. Be it in his dragon form or his human one.
-The type to cuddle you in a bathtub and make the whole bathing experience into a date.
-After washing your body with his own two hands,he will just let you relax against him while you talk about your day to each other.
-If you offer to wash him in return,he will happily oblidge,but just be careful with your touches if you don't want this to get steamy. He's a sensitive dragon.
-While you lay against him and chatter,he might start randomly playing with your hair.
-And by the end,if you fall asleep in the tub,he will do his best to not wake you up and at the same time take you out of the water,dry you off and dress you.
-He doesn't want to bother his lover when they look so sweet.
-And when he's sure you're properly taken care of,he will carry you to the bed and continue your little cuddle session there.
-If he turns in his dragon form,be sure to hold that little thing close to you. Pet his head and rub his scales. He will purr like a cat.

Desert Duo Doodles! I am in way too many fandoms to count, including content creators and whatnot. It wasn’t until a doodle of some CCs that I realised how many were MCYTs. But I wanted to draw these two cause I liked how I drew Scar in the other original doodle and have drawn Grian a bunch but constantly changed the design. Now I have one that I like.
Under the cut are the individual drawings plus stickers that I forgot to add to the original but decided fuck it it’s done, plus some explanation about design choices and headcanons. (Does anyone even care about that?) Idk and idc, I’ll ramble anyways.
(you don’t have to read the stuff, I don’t really care, but you can if you want)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
First off, this one was annoying since it was supposed to be a hug. I was too lazy to draw the Third/Sercet Life outfits, so they are in their default outfits with crowns representing the fact that they won at least one of the Life games.
Ramble: For Grian’s design, I wanted to keep the bird/avian hybrid but also reference other series or past friend. The Life series has the poppy has memorabilia, the blue and red bracelet represents YHS/TS, and the eye necklace is for Evo. The tail is more so a mix of Watcher magic and Avian DNA, bird feet cause why not. The wing ears are hidden to look similar enough to his regular hair, I like to imagine that wing ears are a rarer trait and to not draw too much attention, he would use Watcher magic to change the colour of the wing ears to match his hair. The freckles are based off of the idea that Angel Dust’s freckles are actually just eyes (which were shown in the show), and I liked that idea. He didn’t have freckles before Evo but after in Hermitcraft he did, they are just eyes that are always closed though he can see out of them. It’ll be clearer in the next piece, but his eyes are based off of some bird eyes so a black sclera with coloured pupils. Grian just hides his eyes under his hair since they are more sensitive than normal. Also I didn’t wanna draw his eyes cause it was one of the things I kept changing before.
I’ll go into Scar later since it’s just a half body but he goes by the same rule of his outfit showing where he’s been. So the poppy and lavender for Third Life and the heart necklace for Secret Life. The earrings are based off of the crystals from Season 7.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Alter Egos! Or at least Hot Guy and Arianna Griande. Not much here, but you can see what I meant with the eyes beforehand.
Also, I can’t be the only one to notice or at least point out that Ari and Cute Guy have like the same or a least a very similar colour palette of pink and white.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Final one, and the two are taking a much needed nap. This could take place anywhere though I like to imagine somewhere in Double Life or somewhere between Season 7 - 10
(also I find it very funny how close these two’s bases were for Season 6 - 10. both were near each other in the futuristic district of season six, then next door neighbours at the start of season seven, I don’t need to mention much besides boatem in season eight, again near the start and most of season nine with Scarland and Grian’s timejump build, then finally again in season ten with Magic Mountain. just funny to me for some reason)
Ramble: Scar is like a hybrid between an elf/fae creature and a cat centaur (that I cannot remember the proper name for). The cat half is based off of Jellie, RIP, and his body is scarred because well I mean the dude is accident-prone it’s bound to happen. I imagine that Scar would wear slightly baggy outfits, like they hang off just a bit to not hug his figure. His hair is more based off of Season 9 with him leaning into the whole elf aesthetic, and I both hate and like the hair but whatever. Idk, I kinda just wanted to make him centaur based cause that visual isn’t something I see often. I imagine that hind legs are weaker than the front so he would switch between a cane and a wheelchair that you would see for animals. I might draw that later idk, but yea
If you actually took the time to read this incoherent mess, idk comment a content creator you like, no matter how niche they may be

Tumblr media
Bishop finds the glossy black bag at the top of the closet in the bedroom. You’d finished the last of the holiday shopping this afternoon and had sent him in to retrieve the rest of the Christmas gifts for wrapping when he comes across it. At first, he thinks it must be for one of girls but then he opens it, and his mouth goes dry. It’s black satin, with a lace trim around the neckline.
It’s been a couple of months since the two of you have been intimate, not since before the shooting. You’ve been in recovery, juggling the community centre and the underground network. The desire is there, it’s always there but he’s reserved with it. He jerks off in the shower almost daily, thinking about those nights he’s spent wrapped up in you, fingers in your hair as he kisses you into oblivion.
Fuck he’s hard already just imagining you in this thing. His cock strains against the zipper of his jeans, desperate for relief. He finds himself on the edge of the bed, the satin clutched in his fist as he palms himself through his jeans. It won’t take long, he tells himself. Five minutes at most because the images in his mind, they have him on a hair trigger.
He unbuttons his jeans; his hand slipping under the waistband of his underwear and gripping his cock around the base as he presses the fabric to his face. It smells like you, the scent of your perfume clings to it and he moans at the thought of the material brushing across your bare skin in the dressing room.
That’s how you find him.
His cheeks flush that pretty shade of pink as you lean in the doorway and clear your throat.
“Do you want me to put it on?”
“Yea.” He says, his voice rough. “Yea I do.”
You take the garment from his balled fist, your fingertips teasing along the line of his jaw before you tip his chin up towards you so that you can look into his eyes.
“Take your clothes off for me Obispo.” You murmur as your nose trails along the length of his, your lips barely brushing. “I want to see you too.”
He undresses while you’re in the bathroom, his cock jutting out, already aching and leaking. When the door opens, and you step out he’s surprised he doesn’t come right there and then.
You’re a vision in black satin, the slip hugs your curves just right, the hem falling across your thighs. Underneath you're bare for him, he catches a flash as you approach, and he mutters an oath because he has never been more turned on than he is right now.
You slide into his lap, thighs hugging his hips. He moans as your wetness rubs over the length of his cock, covering him in your slick. Your hands thread through his hair, tugging just a little and it sends him through the stratosphere, your lips brushing over his. His hips move compulsively, the tip of his dick rubbing against your clit as your tongue dips into his mouth in that sinful little way of yours.
His palms chase over the satin, stroking, kneading, caressing every part of you he can get his hands on. He whines as his cock rubs over your entrance, the tip slipping just inside. Fuck you feel good, but it’s nowhere near enough, he needs all of you right now, he needs…
You take him deeper, drawing him in until he can focus on is the way your molten hot core grips his dick. It’s heaven, absolute fucking heaven. If he dies tonight, it’ll be a happy man.
His hands come to rest on your waist as you start to move, a slow roll of the hips that has him thrusting up to meet you. Already he can feel that tingle in his lower back, the heat rushing through his nerve endings. He’s not going to last long but neither are you, he can tell by the way you clench around him, the fact your breath turns ragged, your kisses languid and messy.
You’re fucking beautiful when you climax, your mouth covers his, his hand coming to rest on the back of your neck as he drinks in your pleasure. It’s that that tips him over the edge, the knowledge that he’s done that to you, that he’s the only man that gets to make you come. He spills himself deep inside you, your hips flush against his.
“Fuck.” He whispers into your mouth, a smile ghosting across his lips. “I forgot how good we are at this.”
You laugh and that fucking sound…
It’s the best gift he’s received all year.

Hiding In Plain Sight
authors note: this would be the first part of a four part series. I hope you liked it
Trigger Warning: mentions of stalking
You were interrupted from playing Animal Crossing when you felt a pair of lips press into your temple. 
“You ready to go?” 
“Yea, just let me get my stuff” 
“Alright, I’ll meet you in the tour bus” 
“Ok” 
He kissed your lips before he left. 
You were currently on tour with Jack and you were enjoying every moment of it. However, today was his last show before you would have him all to yourself back home. You gathered all your things and head back to the tour bus. 
As you went inside, Jack was going through his fan mail. You sat beside him and took a look. 
Hey Jack My name is Karlie I love your music. You're such an inspiration for me. I'm from Louisville and If Im honest, I used to be not be very fond of my hometown, until I heard you talk about Louisville with so much love and appreciation. Now I feel proud of being from here. Thank you for everything you have done us. I love you
You read out loud.
“Wow, that was so sweet” he said with a smile on his face. 
“Wait, I think there was something attached” you said pulling out a beaded bracelet with his name on it.
“This is so cool, wait…did she made this herself?” 
“I don’t know let me see” you said going back to the letter. “Oh I forgot to read the last part” 
You flipped the page and read out loud:
p.s. here’s a bracelet I made myself. I hope you like it. Love you
“Damn, I’m going to wear this” he said it wasting no time in putting it on. 
You and Jack spent the next half hour going through his fan mail, until he stumbled to a particular letter that was actually addressed to you. 
“This one is for you”
“Me? Are you sure?” you said looking at the envelope. 
You had never received a letter before. In fact how did they even know you name? You and Jack were not public about your relationship. Sure people suspected he was seeing someone, as he made it clear in interviews that he was not single but he respected your privacy and make sure to not speak of you, not even giving away your name. 
Have a fabulous birthday (it was not your birthday) Y/N is such a pretty name
Jack stopped reading out loud as he read the last part. 
“What the fuck?” he said shocked. 
You took the letter from his hands and read the last part. 
A few days ago, I carved your name in my arm with scissors letter by letter I though you should know that
You stared into nothingness in shock. 
Jack put his arm around you. 
“Hey, everything’s going to be ok. I’m going to hire security so you don’t have to worry about anything. I’ll make sure the police knows about this so they look into it” 
He reassured you, but you were still uneasy. 
Its been two weeks since you received the letter. You stayed at home as you were terrified of going out of fear that your stalker could find your address and attempt something. 
Jack was there for you throughout the whole time. He wasn’t going to lie to himself, he was terrified, and he couldn’t begin to imagine how you must be feeling at this moment. 
Jack wasn’t going to take any chances when it comes to Y/N. He made sure to hire security to patrol outside their home. Additionally, he hired a security staff to sit outside their home.
On the other hand, your anxiety was at a all-time high as you were now experiencing severe panic attacks, scared of having an encounter with your stalker. It got to the point where if you would hear a trash bag rustle, you would flinch and panic. 
“Babe I’m going to the studio” Jack said as he sat on the bed. 
You had stop scrolling through your phone and look up at him and smiled. “Ok”
“Call me if anything happens. I love you” he said kissing the top of your head before leaving the room.
“Wait”
He quickly turned around and went back to your shared room. 
“We are running out of milk and eggs, so I thought I could go to the grocery store later in the afternoon” 
“Sure, I’ll let Nathan (one of your bodyguards) know” 
It was lovely to be able to go out for once. Even though it was such a mundane task, you enjoyed yourself going though the aisles and taking your time with it. So much that for at least a few hours you forgot about the whole thing. 
But that didn’t last long because as soon as you arrived back home, you found another letter. This time it was attached to the windshield of the back of your car, which you were able to notice when you got to the back to unpack your grocery bags. 
You immediately called Jack and texted him a picture od the envelope attached to the windshield. 
In less than 15 minutes, he went back home. Meanwhile your bodyguard alerted the cops. 
I saw you on the snack aisle I noticed you stocked up on various chocolate bars I wonder which one is your favorite of them all Mine is Hershey's chocolate bar  I wanted to approach you and introduce myself but I was overcome by shyness Anyways, I hope you have a wonderful day We should meet sometime in person
The officer read the letter out loud upon your request. A chill went down your spine at the thought of your stalker being so close in proximity to you.
Attached to the letter were tickets from a play you never heard before.
The police took the tickets and the letter to inspect it for fingerprints in hopes to capture your stalker. 
Jack felt helpless and didn't know how to fix this situation; and seeing how this affected you broke his heart.

In case anyone is interested, I might have some information from reddit in regards to the news about the new DMC anime. I'll link it below. But it doesn't appear that the show will have the same VA for Dante that most of us are used to. No word yet on anyone else. I'll keep my ear to the ground. I'll also let you know if I get confirmation on a release date.
Here are the highlights at the top of the thread from the DMC reddit. The first link in red below, that is.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here is the link
It might have just been confirmed here as well.
On a secondary but no less important note, I'm sorry if this is how you find out about Ruben's behavior and apparent personality, especially on twitter. I know. It sucks. I'm hurt, too. I didn't know until relatively recently, and I'm still not sure how to process it all. I wish he would come to his senses and get some help or something. I don't even know anymore. I never knew him personally or anything, but it is shocking to find out. Maybe I just wasn't looking close enough.
It's a lot to take in, and it gets worse every time I hear about it. Smh.
Sorry if I had to be the one to rip the bandaid off. It's okay to be very disappointed. I am, too. I'm sure I'm not speaking for just myself when I say that DMC was a big part of my childhood (even if I wasn't supposed to be playing it because of my age), and still is a big part of my life. I love the series to death.
It's always hurtful to find out things like this about someone who plays a character so close to your heart. I imagine it hurts extra if he was a person you respected only to find this out. And especially if any of his views directly affect you on a personal level. I don't agree with or condone any of it. I'm sorry. Dante isn't my favorite character, but I've always liked him. I know it still hurts because I think we all, to some degree, just enjoy the voice cast as people and it hurts to find out that a member of the cast is like this outside of the studio. I guess it's a sobering reminder that people, no matter how surreal it might seem, the people who play the characters we love... are people. They are not as infallible as I like them to be. And I don't know them personally. It just sucks that you only ever get reminded of that in the worst ways.
But yea, take care and I'll keep you updated if I find out anything reputable. I hope you're having a good day. What do you think about the anime announcement. Truth be told, I haven't watched the trailer yet. I've just been laughing at everyone's responses to it. That's enough entertainment for me at the moment 😂

Small re:zero rant (spoilers for LN) that are just an accumulation of things I haven't been able to rant about but gotta get out
I'm on the LN volume 18 right now and I'm so happy with the way re:zero is going after volume 15 (where the anime ends.) I was kinda dreading the whole ohhh nooo Subaru gets stuck and we gotta repeat a whole segment for the 4th time (not one of the times before did it annoy me but it gets tiresome after a while) but nah, my guy refuses to die and now he has a very fucked up black dragon leg. The relief I feel when the guy gets fucked up and just passes out and lives on instead of looping over and over is great, it's nice that the characters are also getting their own arcs because of it to (e.g. Garfeil's mummy issues ((almost made me cry tbh)) and it wouldn't have happened or would have gotten undone if Subaru kept resetting).
Ngl I took a reading break cause the start of the arc was very slice of lifey and while I enjoyed it there wasn't enough going on to make my dyslexic ass put in enough effort to get past it, but now everytime I read shits going on and it seems to have potential to get really good.
Alsoalso I know that at some point some shit happens to Subaru where he has some shit to do with wrath (I've tried to stay away from details as much as possible) and I'm very excited to see what happens with that and how they do it, especially since the archbishop of wrath is one of the enemies rn
Alsoalsoalso Subaru and Julius are sooooo fucking gay, why is every interaction so fruity??? How were they not meant to be written as bfs like their dynamic from a romantic perspective is so much more interesting than any relationship Subaru has with anyone else (I'm fine with like Emilia/Rem and it makes sense why they like him but like it's boring I'm sorry). Also I know the story is written in 3rd person and the descriptions aren't actually Subaru's direct perspective but it's just so funny to me how often Julius is described as a really handsome man and no one else is. I like to imagine this is Subaru's demons (bisexuality) coming out.
I do have issues with it (mmmm some designs ESPECIALLY the archbishop of LUST LIKE CAN THEY NOT) and sometimes they say some annoying ass horny shit which is always a :///. Also it's understandably gotten to a point where everyone loves Subaru as yk he's kinda saved everyone but it's just made many dynamics boring now. Like they don't have to dislike him or whatever but I think it would be cool if characters had more complex dynamics with eachother and the group wasn't just united by 'yea we all love Subaru!' (Beatrice kinda gets an excuse of she literally shut herself off from everyone and she's that close to Subaru because he saved her and is the only person she's let herself trust thus far, but also I hope she has more of a relationship with those around her)
BUTT other than that I'm enjoying the series (so sad the LN only goes up to 22 in english what am I going to do after I catch up

isn't it canon that feli goes to cons? wasn't he dressed up as luffy from one piece? they probably go to cons together and talk about anime lmao nerds💕 they have seen so much and experienced so many tragedies throughout history, and still has to do like paperwork and stuff, let them enjoy things outside nation duties🤲🏻
Tumblr media
Yessss omg ❤️ The history of Anime in Italy is also quite interesting!
Maybe he’s not on the same level as France, but I think he’d still love anime and manga (especially anime). I remember being able to watch shows like One Piece, Dragon Ball Z, and Detective Conan on mainstream (non kids) channels when I was younger. He would definitely have long conversations with France about whatever series they’re both into, and them going to cons and cosplaying together does sound super cute 😭 I can totally see it. The costumes they make together are probably works of art.
Also I have a headcanon that Feli’s favourite anime/manga series is Lupin III. There’s a lot of love for Lupin III in Italy- to the point where we get “special treatment” when it comes to releases and content. If I’m not mistaken, Italy has also produced quite a few Lupin comics of our own! So yea, I imagine Feli to be a super fan ❤️
This is a bit of a non-hetalia bonus but one thing I ALWAYS love to bring up are the Italian theme songs that were made for anime back in the day. My personal favourite is the Doraemon opening, and since we talked about one piece:

The AC-series products are at their best when they’re, you know, full of interesting things. Not that the screens or adventures are bad, but man, AC9 — Creature Catalogue (1986)? Hell yea. Imagine hiding a whole monster manual in an accessory line!
This is a square-bound book and you know you’re in good hands because it’s got a Parkinson cover. Lots of nice details — the dwarf’s eyepatch, the garland of skulls, the gnome’s entire energy.
Inside is, well, it says on the cover — it’s a catalog of creatures from the basic D&D game. A lot of these are weird and unique to the game (until Mystara introduced them to AD&D in the mid-90s). All sorts of weirdies like the Crone of Chaos, Wyrds, Nagpa, Levellers and so many more. Basic D&D is strange. In terms of art, though, the best part is the collection of title pages. Rather than just arranging the monsters in straight alphabetical order, they’re broken out into categories — Undead, Animals, etc. This isn’t great in terms of usability, but those title pages are Fantastic. I particularly like the thematic fonts.
This got reprinted in the 90s for the Challenger version of D&D. I posted that one back in January and I stick to my guns: this one is better, though for reasons I can’t quite put my finger on. It isn’t JUST the title pages, there is something about the typesetting and the monster art crops that just looks better. I don’t get it, but it’s true.

Ahhhhh, I love your Discworld art so much! Which books would you like to see as TV shows or movies the most? I personally would love to see a series or a movie of Guards! Guards! or any of the Watch books, since the one series I managed to find about them I didn’t enjoy nearly as much as the books themselves.
thank u anon 💛 Yea I haven't really super enjoyed any of the adaptations either, the Going Postal one looks pretty aight visually, but it seemed too forcefully goofy that it didn't manage to carry that right humor/weight combo the book did (for me)
I think whatever it is, it has to either be animated or a musical, definitely something that includes a narrator, it seems really tough to properly adapt it otherwise
imagine Les Miserables style Night Watch tho

EVERYONE NEED TO READ RADIANT NOW!!!
doing Radiant propaganda but seriously. seriously read it. it's my favorite series and I have been following it since it came out, it got a huge succes in Japan, but then the hype died after the anime got out and it makes me so sad, because it's seriously amazing and I believe the Tumblr population would love it oh and, yea, I did say, READ! I would... heavily not recommand to check the anime. I haven't finished the first season because of just how bad it was. it's like, they tried to turn it into regular One Piece inspired shonen, the animation is quite terrible and in the span of 10 episodes, there is like half that are useless and complete fillers?? on the FIRST season??? bad. really bad.
I will now proceed to explain YOU, WHY you should read Radiant NOW
I'll start with explaining what is it about; Radiant is a manfra (french manga) created and illustrated by Tony Valente, and (apparently) the first french manga to get published in Japan, where it got a huge success the story takes place in a fantasy world that casually gets attacked by eggs falling from the sky, and that hatch into monsters called Nemesis. these monsters are able to use Fantasia, a magical source, and are devastating; as a matter of fact, any human entering in contact with them will instantly die, EXCEPT for a very small proportion. those who survived the contact will become "infected", which mean they will receive an unusal feature (this one can be visible, like a tail, or not visible, like mood swings), and will be able to manipulate Fantasia themselves, making them the only humans able to fight against the Nemesis. these people are called witches however, even if they are life saviors, witches are often badly seen, because they are as dangerous as the Nemesis themselves, and many rumors and beliefs are around them (that they made a pact with the Nemesis, that they are Nemesis themselves, etc...). as a result was founded the Inquisition, a mercenary group specialized in hunting down the witches, and fighting against Nemesis without the help of witches the main character of the story is Seth, a young witch who, after hearing about the Radiant, a theory about the existence of a "birthplace" for all Nemesis, wishes to destroy it
NOW it looks pretty common, and that's quite fair. the story takes a lot of inspiration from popular shonens, as well as the Arturian myth, with a lot of references to real life witch hunts. but there is many things that make it very special, and to start with its messages and the symbolism behind it. if you look at it, Radiant is a lot about the freedom of speech, and the expression of art. Fantasia is a magic system that relies a lot on the user's imagination and self expression, and the Inquisition is trying to limiting its use, pretty much like censoring. there is also a huge message against racism and discrimation as a whole, with the fight for freedom and acceptance of difference, but also with grey sides on both parts; whereas the Inquisition is discriminating witches and showing them as monsters, some witch groups will react violently to it, and start riots, attacking innocent civilians, and tun into the monsters the Inquisition was showing them as. the most important message of the entire series is humanity, and to learn how to "be" a human, with a lot of other messages
and it does it VERY WELL! dont get fooled by how slow the plot may be at the very first book, it quickly becomes something amazing on the first arc. every character is deeply attaching and human, they all have strengths and flaws, and their own story. it's also probably good to say that for a series with a message on differences, there is a lot of representations of all sorts, we have a lot of feminine characters with important roles, characters with skin of color, disabled characters, lgbtq characters... and it's hardly forced as if to fill an agenda. like for exemple, there is a blind character at some point, but characters dont point it out like "oh hey, are you blind?", and the character is not shown as being a weak, poor little thing. you understand it simply by seeing the character and how they act, and it's just clear, its smooth, and its normalized, and I find it amazing how it's represented
as well, the ART STYLE. Tony Valente started working alone, and now gradually got assistants to help him, but he's still doing a huge, HUGE part of the job, and makes it worth it to wait ~5 months between each book. the characters have really nice designs, there's a lot of variety in the shapes and body types, and some pages just made me sit down for a bit and go "wow". the series has been going on since 2013 (there is currently 18 books so far), and you can see Tony's improvement through it. I mean, look at THESE
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I seriously cant stress it enough how much I lobe this series and how much I enjoy rereading it every so often, so really really, I recommand it vividly, and i want it to EXPLODE, i want maximum support and love for this series and the author!! i was reading it when i was 12, i still am reading it, and its very dear to my heart, even if i dont get to show it often because there's hardly any community around it,, so really, CHECK IT NOW

Tumblr media
finally have time to continue my rewatch, so on to episode 9
again another one of my favorites and the grassley duel is probably my favorite fight of the series tbh
Tumblr media
worth noting that miorine doesnt seem bothered that shaddiq comes to check up on her. gotta wonder how often he'd swing by, though i think it's safe to say absolutely not often enough that he would show he actually gives a shit
Tumblr media
ok idk how i didnt notice it in the op after so many times but that fuckin door is there again.... i'm just going to hyperfixate on this dumb gold door that probably doesn't mean anything besides being another nod to utena
Tumblr media
lol it honestly kills me that under difference circumstances (aka if shaddiq didnt have his head so far up his ass), they really could have been good friends. instead his decision to stay relatively distant and put up his cunning business front results in miorine (rightly) not trusting him at all.
Tumblr media
right before miorine challenges shaddiq, there's a real fast cut to him tightening his fist on the table and i gotta wonder how in the world he thought he'd be able to just talk this out after basically screwing miorine over like this and then trying to extort her lol. yea he was ready to have to duel if it came down to it, but like cmon man just be normal for once
Tumblr media
god i wish we could've seen secelia just dig into lauda more lmao
Tumblr media
i love that miorine knows how to play the stupid game all these people play just as well as all of them but god am i glad that at the end of it all she doesnt have to deal with any of this shit anymore
Tumblr media
lol i really wanna know how no one had noticed nika having secret meetings and sending secret messages for months tbh like chuchu even makes a comment asking where nika is in the scene before this one so she probably just disappared at random times but anime logic lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Tumblr media Tumblr media
up until this moment when miorine tells shaddiq that he's just like everyone else in the group, did this guy think that anything he's done (or really, hasn't done) would have made miorine think differently?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the look on his face here as miorine stops him from entering her most sacred of spaces just really says it all. like he can't fathom that miorine legitimately does not think positively of him
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is definitely one of my favorite scenes from the whole series. just showcasing how highly suletta thinks of miorine. whereas miorine was upset suletta agreed to a duel with elan a few episodes back, suletta just never questions miorine challenging shaddiq
Tumblr media
this has gotta be the moment shaddiq realizes suletta is a "rival" for miorine's heart, yea?
Tumblr media
i know what you are, sabina
Tumblr media
lol these dorks
Tumblr media
lmao miorine, you're so ruthless
on a serious note, someone please write a random student from asticassia pov fic because like imagine seeing all this going on from some rando's pov. the benerit group princess who hates everyone and has been trying to fuck off as far as possible suddenly forms a business and now she's challenging people to duels????
Tumblr media
imagine if vim had sucessfully murdered delling and he just left guel as bob the builder for the rest of his life. why in the hell did he have to go by bob lmao
Tumblr media
omg did we all collectively forget that the second school shooting episode wasn't the first time she's done this?!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
so glad our little tanuki calls this bozo out on this shit. all you had to do was be a normal human being lol
Tumblr media
the funny thing about shaddiq's little monologue here is that it's all his feelings under the assumption that miorine would forever be trapped within the confines of the benerit group and the stupid game her dad made up. and yeah, i suppose in that respect, he's partially right... but if he knew miorine well at all and not some idealized version of her, he'd know she wants nothing to do with any of that
Tumblr media
bless you, gjm for making this loser seem more unhinged just by choosing to translate onna as bitch lmao
even secelia and rouji are just like uhhhhhhh
Tumblr media
oh this is real nice juxtaposed with episode 24's "i'm a selfish person"
be selfish all you want, little tanuki, you deserve it
Tumblr media
aerial hitting permet score six is such an iconic shot lmao this episode and this part specifically gave me goosebumps like a little loser the first time i saw it as the witch from mercury song starts playing
Tumblr media
omg i am so excited that i preordered a permet score six aerial from p-bandai lmao look at her shes so cool all in blue
Tumblr media
same, prospera, same
Tumblr media
will never forget how happy i was when the till-chuchu headshot happens lmao, it still rules
i hope if gwitch ever gets a recap movie or movies that we get the moment miorine finds out about ericht and aerial. as aerial hits permet score six and suletta is talking to her, we see miorine visibly confused over suletta talking to her mobile suit... and i just really really want to see miorine's reaction to finding out about eri on top of her inner thoughts on suletta talking to aerial. like at first i'm sure she thought it was some quirky thing especially calling it her sister, but it's gotta be something she was like wtf about, right?
made it to image limit so no more pics but one thing that's respectable about shaddiq is him realizing at the end of this episode that there really is something special between miorine and suletta even if perhaps at this point the two of them haven't outright acknowledged it. we see him acknowledge in ep 7 that miorine is becoming a better version of herself from suletta's influence on her, but him bringing up dueling for her hand in marriage, to me at least, is him hanging up his towel when it comes to miorine because he realized suletta really won her heart over - he literally says "maybe you'd have let me in [to the greenhouse]"
lmao i really tried to not go overboard with screenshots but oh well
lets see if i can finish cour 1 tomorrow

Hi!! I’m so curious about your busk au!! (Also, absolutely adore trans fem scar and need more things with her, the way I got so excited!!) but yea would love to know more about it! :D (also oooo is it scarian??) (also also! I hope you have a great day!)
HI!! HECK YEAH HECK YEAH, BUSK AU IS LIKE MY BABY I'LL TAKE ANY EXCUSE TO TALK ABOUT IT
it's actually a grumbo au! it's essentially just a slowburn romance between them, with a very meet-cute beginning and some very angsty backstories (particularly mumbo im so sorry mr jumbo my beloved...). i don't want to spoil too much in the first ask about it, but i can definitely talk a bit about the plot and characters in it!! i don't imagine i'll end up writing a series for it like i had originally wanted to, so i'm very happy to talk about mostly anything!!
anyway! the general overview!
the au is set in a touristy coastal town, and it follows grian and mumbo, two busks. grian plays the guitar, and he has been since he was very young - it's his one true passion. he wants nothing more than to turn it into a career, to be able to share his music and inspire other people with his creations, but so far it's... not been working out. he works three jobs, just about making ends meet, and he's just like,, chronically tired. this poor man.
anyway, he busks for fun, just to see the way that people flock to his music, and it's a good way to make some extra cash!
mumbo is essentially his opposite - he busks because he doesn't really know what else to do. he enjoys playing the piano, sure, but he doesn't necessarily have a passion for it in the same way that grian does. he's an engineer, making plenty of money to live comfortably and still have a decent chunk of spare time, so he has a massive range of hobbies. he's not necessarily amazing at any of them, but he's decent and they keep him busy, so he's not about to complain.
he started songwriting a couple of years ago, but he daren't play anyone his music because he doesn't think he could stand their disapproval if they thought it was bad. instead, he tends to play seasonal music when he busks - summery, christmassy, and everything inbetween. he plays what people want to hear, and holds anything different close to his chest.
the pair of them play in a similar part of the town centre, on opposite ends of a broad central plaza, but they haven't ever really spoken. until, of course, they do :) i won't get into their meeting now, simply because this post is already long as hell, but i'm very happy to talk about it in another ask, if you were interested!!
and also, YES TRANSFEM SCAR. SHE'S MY EVERYTHING!! she's grian's best friend, an animator who largely works from her own studio and - whenever she has free time - draws caricatures for tourists next to where ever grian happens to be playing that night! :D
(we also have transmasc grian and nb pearl teehee >:))

Most of this issue has been ppl being varying levels of racist towards blacksad for being mixed (the white spots) but like, I’m trying to imagine Why they’d separate by color and not species. Like I’m just saying a Persian, a Bombay, and a tuxedo cat have more in common than a Bombay and a black horse do.
Ok yknow I just remembered that this series Very Explicitly states that it isn’t anthropomorphizing the animals but rather taking humans and turning them into animals based on how they act so actually the colors determining race thing makes more sense than the animals
It’s not that all cats would be like one race, any random person can be cat-like regardless of where they come from. And yea, instead of completely erasing racial issues it makes sense to make them still exist in some way

Hi belle! Im so sorry for a late reply I was not online so much because I am so busy with all the activities in school😭. I’ve not really taken a rest yet but I’m fine! I try to take in between breaks when I do my activities so I’m hanging in there! And anyways I kinda have an Imagine with Oliver. So I am currently obsessed with Marvel right now, me and my family watched it in timeline order and I loved it so much!! So imagine watching all the movies and series with Oliver and the both of you are just simping for the characters and the actors😂 so yeah thats it hehe
How about you belle? Have you watched any marvel movies/series?
-💙
Don't worry abt it Blue! ( ∩´͈ ᐜ `͈∩) take your time and reply when you feel like it okay? no pressure ( ⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝)
And same, my writing time has been cut down due to assignments and papers that i have to work on- so i'm taking it easy ૮ ˶´ ᵕˋ ˶ა its okay to not keep up with timelines (cause i have fomow both here and irl- so i'm working on that)
Marvel movies! I actually wanted to say this for halloween- Aiku in a spiderman suit. but since he is obsessed with cowboy hats- he's just gonna wear that a pair of boots since it suits his very 'laid back personality'.
As for watching Marvel movies... I have seen a few- and on an unpopular opinion, Toby Maguire will always be my fav spider man (like ik tom holland and andrew garfield are cute- but just... nah. Toby is my childhood ૮꒰⸝⸝> <⸝⸝꒱), apart from that i've seen avengers, winter soldier and yeah that's it. I don't watch a lot of marvel movies tbh... my friends and roommates are maniacs tho (and they're telling me to watch the boys- i'm not sure if its marvel tho) i'm more of a DC girl- and the latest series i watched... its just romantic killer (anime) and i'm waiting for Ragnarok season 2 to come in...
Small Oliver Drabble - angsty fluffy cause i couldn't help it and he's my fav ૮꒰/ฅ//ฅ//꒱ა :
Oh yea if there was a marvel movie marathon ik he's gonna go with the popular opinion and like black widow- and banter with you, even if he doesn't mean it.
"You know if I weren't stuck with you, i'd totally trade you with Natasha Romanov." he said, grabbing popcorn and putting them into his mouth.
"Mhm hm... pretty sure you can do that now, since you have a football career and the world hasn't run out of red heads who speak Russian and latin- any girl would kill to have Aiku Oliver as a boyfriend." you replied humorlessly, resting into the sofa.
"You wouldn't?"
"Hm... not when you have Thor, Loki, Tony Stark, Peter parker, Steve Rogers and Bucky to entertain you. Its a different feeling when you want someone you can't have yet you're satisfied with it." you ranted, shrugging your shoulders, taking some popcorn into your hand and eating it.
"So you'd rather have characters portrayed by people on screen who don't even know you rather than me?" he contested, his voice sounding more serious rather than the tinge of amusement he got into friendly arguments.
It fueled your desire to tease him, your mind curious and the want to entice a reaction out of him.
"I mean..." you drawled out, a smirk making its way on your face. "I might not bag them in real life, but I am pretty happy with the view I'm getting. I did this before my first relationship and I also did the same thing before I met you. A girl can dream you know?"
"Even if you have me?" "Even if I have you."
"I'm gonna go get some water." he said, rolling his eyes and getting up from the sofa. Letting a few minutes pass you set the bowl of popcorn on the table, pausing the movie to follow him.
Standing at the door of the kitchen you watched as he stared at the counter, clutching a glass of water. Walking behind him, you circled your arms around his torso, nuzzling your nose into his back, hugging him close to you.
"You know that i was only teasing right?"
"Mhm." "Is Oliver upset with me?" "..." "Did I make my Oliver angry?"
"..."
"You know that I didn't mean it." you pouted, feeling him sigh.
"You're lucky you have me. I don't think Bucky and gang would be able to put up with your annoying ass." he said with a scoff.
"You brat." you laughed, biting into his back, making him yelp. Turning around he caressed your face, placing a lingering kiss on your head, his heterochromatic eyes staring into yours as he rubbed his thumb against your cheek.
"Jeg elsker deg." he murmured. "Jeg elsker too deg."
He chuckled.
"Let's go back. I get to pick a movie this time." [Jeg elsker deg is Norwegian, but Swedish and Norwegian sound really similar even if the spellings are different and Oliver can speak both.]
