I would to know more about the untitled-Jamie-blue-screen fic, if you wanted to share anything about it : )

Hello terrifyingly talented friend! I am happy to share!!

So this fic started rolling while I was writing 'i learned to walk while he was away', - that story explores some of the 'unseen' effects of Jamie's experiences, specifically what his relationship to expressions of violence (even when positively channelled) might be after growing up with an angry man. The 'untitled-Jamie-blue-screen-day' fic (which is technically 'redacted-title-Jamie-blue-screen-day' fic, I'm a fairly changeable person and the title's redacted purely because it's still subject to possible [who knows, not me] change) is another exploration of some of the 'unseen' or more accurately 'undeveloped' parts of Jamie's psyche that canon skips over.

Specifically, the symptoms of depression he displays in 3x11 Mom City.

I'm a card carrying member of the 'Jamie has multiple missing diagnoses' bandwagon and know first hand what a horrifyingly tricky combo neurodivergence and clinical depression can be.

I use a lot of metaphors to describe/understand the complexities of mental health- when I was studying it, when I'm teaching it and yea when I'm thinking about my own brain :)

Most of the metaphors are computer based- product of the times I guess.

The untitled-title 'blue screen day' is how I unaffectionately refer to the days when that horrifyingly tricky combo decides to be extra horrifying and extra tricky and causes total system overload. The days when you forget how to be a person. That 'blue screen' blink feeling of not functioning, but then it's not momentary, it's not a blink, it doesn't go away. You're seeing with your eyes sure, but you're not really seeing and they don't really feel like your eyes. You exist in your body yes, but do you really exist? Is it actually your body?

(To use plain language; it's a brief and intense episode of severe burn-out, typically bought on by cognitive and/or sensory overload, but sometimes seemingly spontaneous [clinical!].)

So that's what I gave Jamie, a blue-screen-day (sorry buddy).

But I also gave him Roy! And a smoothie! He'll be okay.

(Essentially the story is the idea that sometimes things don't have solutions or answers or a quick and easy fix. Sometimes all you can do is be. Sometimes all you can do to help is be there.)

The fic really is gentle hours, I swear.

#THANK YOU FOR THE ASK!!! #jamie lives in my brain #i loved him for yonks but after the boot room scene in 3x11 the guy has lived in my head #he sits sideways in a chair and kicks footballs at my amygdala while scream singing 'the chain' #i don't know what to do about that #other than fic i guess? #anyway if he's gonna live in my head i'm gonna poke him with a stick (depression [??]) and see what happens #OH HEY ALSO- I absolutely take (and crave) roses #I am dragon hoarding them because they make me feel happy to look at :) I WILL GET BETTER ABOUT ACTUALLY USING THEM WHOOPS #THANK YOU AGAIN FRIEND! #fic: untitled-jamie-blue-screen-day #ask box is always open #i still have no idea when this thing'll be done #it's nearly finished! #just needs a few more scenes then a couple edit swipes to make it more cohesive #readwing #jamiesfootball #ted lasso #jamie tartt #NEARLY FORGOT WARNINGS AGAIN YIKES #cw: depression #cw: mental health #writing tag

weirdly elated to discover that N does, in fact, mention his sisters Literally Ever

#i'd thought he didn't #the second one is a little debatable but idk what else he'd be referring to that seems too affectionate and too plural to be just Ghetsis #oncilla speaks #nposting #n harmonia #n pokemon #trainer n #anthea and concordia #also side note: the fandom calls them siblings but they never actually refer to each other using sibling words. i guess it makes sense sinc #apparently even the sages couldn't figure out whether n and ghetsis were family so that just seems to be how they do things but also #it makes me feral #edit: whoops almost forgot to put this in a&c's tag

Bad For Business

(This is based on a Shadowrun character I ran... god, almost a decade ago. ... Jesus, that's longer than I want to think about.)

The woman sitting behind the desk sighed, running a clawed hand over the fine mahogany surface, glowing, bioluminescent irises pointed down at the polished wood surface. "There are things that we don't do, Roger." She flicks her eyes up to look at the bloodied elf handcuffed to the bare metal chair across the desk from her almost dispassionately.

"I mean, of course I know your real name, 'RawDawg.' It's my business to know things, to move things, to -successfully- make my deliveries. My clients pay quite well for that. For my information and for my services. My -discretion- while moving..." She tilts her head to the side, tapping on her bottom lip with a claw for a moment, "We'll call them 'sensitive materials.' We both know what I do for a living."

Folding her arms, she sighs again, a feline ear flicking in irritation. The woman wasn't human, and didn't look it, but she wasn't an Orc. Wasn't an Elf. At least not on the surface. On the surface, she looked like what people would have called a "Snow Leopard" had any still been around. Though she had a humanoid shape, she had a muzzle, feline ears, and rosettes scattered across the snowy white fur that covered her body. Like her eyes, her claw-tips glowed, as did the rosettes.

Waving softly behind her, the only external sign of her agitation, Kallissa's tail was long, soft, and fluffy. A smart, well tailored pinstripe suit adorned her frame, without emphasizing the feminine assets it covered.

"Roger... What you did was bad for my business. I gave you an option. An opportunity. And for my gift, you've spit in my face, and drawn attention to my nice, quiet, -profitable- business." She carefully placed both hands flat on the desk in front of her, leaning forward. "Now... SPD looks the other way with my businesses because of how I got where I am. By taking -control- of and -organizing- the smuggling and drug trafficking trades here in the greater Seattle area."

"And you know this because I told you. You could take your gang, and leave, or you could join me, stop the very loud, very -public- gunfights, and make three times what you were, even after my cut." Shaking her head, the woman sighs and moves her hand to a knife sitting on the blotter of her desk. "And you took that very generous offer, and very publicly said, and I believe the trids have this as a direct quote..."

She cleared her throat briefly, the prince-nez glasses she wore lighting up briefly with the HUD they had in them. "Yo, f--- that p---- ass cat bitch." Picking up the knife, she looks it over slowly, eyes reflecting in the mirror finished steel. "That hurt my -feelings,- Roger. My feelings, -and- my credibility. I'm allowed to run my businesses without interference from SPD or Lone Star because I make sure the streets are -quiet.- And you, dear boy..."

Pointing the knife down at him, she shook her head sadly, clucking her tongue briefly, "-are anything -but- quiet... And I suppose that means that I have to do what I used to do much more often, and make an example of you." Sighing dramatically again, she steps around the desk, setting the knife down on the edge closest to the elf. "So. Lets have a conversation, hmm?"

She smiles sweetly, the expression never touching her eyes as she crouches down on her heels in front of the man in the chair. She takes a moment, examining him, tilting her head first one way, then the other, before snapping a hand out to grab him around the jaw, forcing him to look her in the eyes.

"Roger Bartholomew Christenson, You Will Follow My Words." As she spoke, her expression hardened, a strange reverberation in her voice. "When I unlock these handcuffs, you will go to the Stevenson Building in Redmond. You will walk to the secretary, tell them that Kallissa Mirina Romanovsky sent you to for a lesson."

The woman's eyes glowed a soft Cherenkov blue, reflecting in the man's green eyes like radiation in a cooling pool. "You will wait for the cameras. You will then go to the roof with them. You will record yourself saying that I have done this. That I keep the streets quiet. That Kallissa Mirina Romanovsky is the Don of this city for a reason. And then, you are going to take this knife... And drive it into your heart. Because Chaos is Bad For Business, and You, Roger Bartholomew Christenson, have brought Chaos to -MY- city."

The last line was intoned with a snarl as she shoved his face away, the force nearly toppling the chair he was trapped in. As the man blinked and shook his head, a residual flash of irradiated blue clung to his pupils. Reaching out, Kallissa took the knife from her desk and tossed it in his lap, expression still filled with barely contained fury. "ISILDOR! Get this scum out of my office, and make sure he follows my damn orders! I was too -fucking- wordy again."

The door to the office clicked open, and a tall, thin man with several augments stepped through, a sword over one shoulder and a pistol in a shoulder holster. "Again? Fuck me, Kali... I hate having to watch these..." The human rolled his eyes as Kallissa hissed at him.

"Well, if -someone- hadn't gotten into a public gunfight with this trash, I wouldn't have to make an example of him! And his goddamned drone scratched my bike! I told Captain Amelios I'd take care of it, and if I don't do something, and do it -publicly,- I'm going to lose power and lose face. You remember the -slums- we had before I made the deal with the SPD. You want that again? Then sometimes, I need you to help make examples. You're my bodyguard, and this is why you get paid."

She threw a set of keys at the cyber-sam before stalking back around her desk. "And just make sure the trid-cams get everything. I need it from -his- mouth to remind people why when I say things, they -listen.-"

Isildor rolled his eyes again, catching the keys easily, unlocking the cuffs a moment later. "Aye aye, boss-lady. One public execution, coming up." As soon as the handcuffs dropped, Roger "RawDawg" Christenson picked up the knife in his lap and stood, movements mechanical and jerky, the same blue as Kallissa's eyes glowing deep inside his pupils.

Kallissa pulled off her glasses with one hand, rubbing the bridge of her muzzle with the other as the two men walked out the door, one stiff and mechanical, the other fluid and deadly. "... I hate it when people decide to be bad for business..."

forever obsessed with kok.ichi going from "you can't pressure ppl to keep trying to 'escape,' kae.de" to "omg you guys were so mean to ka.ede yesterday" (when he literally started it) to "don't you remember what happened yesterday, ka.ede?"

#something something coming across as cHaOTic when he's actually manipulating everyone #and undermining kae.de's inherent leadership abilities because he knows it's dangerous for /all/ of them #like he's so quick to undermine her when she starts suggesting something he disagrees with #but also i firmly believe he respects her #(he warns her even more bluntly than he warns shu.ichi abt what's going on) #(and in the same way the her death propels shu.ichi i think it also propels kok.ichi) #(if they're all working together then the mastermind will just break the rules to kill them) #(they need antagonism. they need a villain. he becomes it) #this became a meta post whoops #('but there's no proof kok.ichi knew she was framed' literally the whole trial i was like 'this is so dumb that literally wouldn't work') #(i dismissed it as 'eh it's just a game' and was so PISSED with myself when shu.ichi found the ball fkdsjfkhfdjksal) #(in other words i honestly think it should've been blatantly obvious to all of them but that's a whole other thing) #[ long tags ] #edit: forgot to mention that him telling kae.de to stop the escape attempts was actually just the right thing to do lmao #˖ ✧ ends / means » ( headcanon ) #—— ✧ ooc »

hi! it's theo aka user worldoutlaw and for 500 followers i wanted to share my coloring/sharpening process ! i've been getting a few notes recently complimenting my coloring and sharpening lately (ty all so much they make me smile every time) and i thought some people might be curious in my process so here we are ! :3 this is just coloring and sharpening so if you're looking for a general gif tutorial i suggest you check out usergif! now without futher ado let's start (color coded for my fellow adhders/neurodivergents who find reading hard)

i do most of my process through actions; of which i have several for different gif dimensions ie 540 width (typically for fancams where i keep the width of the file the same but change the height), 540 height (which i use the most for gifs like the above), and 850 height which i use for my sets that have side by side gifs like my pinned

actions make the beginning of making a gif a lot faster and especially save time when you're rushing to make comeback gifs lmao

after i've converted to the video timeline and selected all of my frames and converted them to a smart object, i apply userdramas's camera raw filter action which can help gifs look higher quality and create the illusion of skin texture when there isn't any

after this i convert the layer into a smart object again and apply my sharpening as follows (partly from anyataylorjoy's action pack)

smart sharpen 1:

smart sharpen 2:

smart sharpen 3: (this one is optional)

smart sharpen 2 duplicated

gaussian blur:

and i click this button on the far right to change the opacity of the blur (usually i set it around 10-30)

it may look funky but noise at the end will always fix it :p

after i sharpen i start on coloring!

my coloring process starts with editing values with curves, brightness & contrast, and sometimes levels

this helps to achieve the high contrast look i really like on my gifs and below are my settings for this specific set

i find that the marker in the center of the curves graph can often help darken skin tones if the subject appears too light

after i have my values down i move on to the actual colors

i start with adding a selective color layer; adjusting the red values, followed by yellow, then black, white, and any other colors i would want prominent in the gif

for example, with this set i wanted the blues to look really nice so i increased the cyans and decreased the yellows to my liking

changing the black values adds to the dimension i like in my gifs; these are my settings

forgot magenta whoops

next i add a hue/sat layer where i mess with the red and yellow values which often adds extra help to skin tones (i also recently started using hue/sat on colors like the blues here)

now these gifs didn't need it thankfully, but if needed i will also do color balance and channel mixer layers

after all my coloring and sharpening is done and i'm satisfied with how a gif looks i will convert all layers to a smart object and add noise (typically 1.5-3)

then the gif is done and i save it! these are my save settings

and that's how i turn this

into this!

hope y'all enjoyed and found this helpful and thank you again for 500<3333

Wrote this PSI character description for the Harbinger/Lazarus Core before I fell back asleep earlier:

He's five feet, two inches, with dark red hair and feminine features - not the kind of guy you'd expect to be a professional killer. Despite the money he gets from the job, he's no flashy dresser. Actually, whatever he doesn't spend on his family goes right to local charities. (It's the least he can do.) He still wears the same clothes he did before, the brown or black suits, the well-worn button-ups, even the same shoes, carefully cleaned of blood when he gets home from a job. “Dad” comments on his clothes sometimes. These comments are ignored. Not everyone needs to be beautiful. Not everyone needs to dress like a movie star. Some people need to fit the mold best they can. It feels like a futile operation. There's always a chance someone will see through the cologne, the tie, the smile, and ask that painful question - “are you a woman?” But there's always a chance someone won't. Lazarus Core has been doing this a long time now. The man thing, that is, not the murders. As a private detective, most never looked at him long enough to think twice. Now, as one of the most feared criminals in Arkham, those who see him don't survive long enough to care either way.

Rules: Go to your published works on AO3 and list the first and last fics you published there, a fic for a fandom/ship you've only written for once, your favourite fic in the fandom/ship with the most works, the fic you wish more people read, the fic you agonised over the most, the fic that sprang fully-formed from your mind with minimal effort, and a work you are proud of—for whatever reason. <3

-----

first: Send/Delete (Malec), a 120k word Shadowhunters au that starts out adjacent to canon, and then swiftly branches off to feature an OC warlock villain who specifically targets Malec.

most recent: Beloved Without Shame (KimChay), the final installment in the 500-word KimChay smut fic challenge that @staykimchay and I recently concluded!

a fandom/ship you've only written for once: I sorted my fics by pairing and found an Isabelle Lightwood / Jace Wayland one shot I wrote a while back. That was certainly... interesting. I'm not linking it. If you're that determined, find it yourself. It's not good. 💀😂 It was the result of the last time I went on a writers weekend and challenged myself to write something far out of my comfort zone (at the time).

your favourite fic in the fandom/ship with the most works: I'm going to take "most works" to mean that I've written the most works for. Probably Where Summer Meets Frost (KimChay), which I eventually intend to spin off into its own original story if I can ever finish Desperate Measures first. 😅

the fic you wish more people read: I don't think I really have one! I adore getting comments and kudos, but I write for me. It's always fun to see which fics surprise me, though. If I had to name one, I think Like a Land of Dreams (Malec), the little series I wrote for the Tarot Challenge, is a bit of a dark horse. There aren't many fics out there where Magnus chooses to be mortal with Alec, rather than Alec choosing immortality with Magnus. It was an interesting concept to rotate around in my mind. It's also the first fic where I began playing with more flowery language and allowing myself to write a bit more dramatically like I really wanted to.

the fic you agonised over the most: Probably Desperate Measures (KimChay), which I've been working on for a whole ass YEAR and I only have THREE CHAPTERS LEFT! SO CLOSE!!! But From Behind the Stars (Malec) gets a close second considering I never actually finished it. Whoops. 😬 I'm sensing a pattern where I tend to lose steam at around 80-90k words.

the fic that sprang fully-formed from your mind with minimal effort: Both Simple Little Secrets (KimChay) and Cotton Candy Crush (KimChay) happened like this. I seem to have an affinity for fics that start out as shameless crack smut.

fic I am proud of: (forgot this one and had to edit it in--whoops!) Probably the Fucking Fridays series (KimChay) in general, because it's just 31,000 words of solid, shameless smut that @staykimchay and I wrote. There are just so many different situations and ideas and dynamics. What an incredible accomplishment and learning experience. Go us.

I tag @staykimchay and @venagrey ! And anyone else who wants to grab it. 🖤

✨⚡️ Seven(ish) Sentence Sunday ⚡️✨

Tagged by @acountrygirlsfun (I think actually multiple times, whoops) Thank you, Caitlin ❤️

"There is no such thing as dar'ad. A parent cannot disown their child." Obi-Wan knew, even without the Force to tell him, what reaction was sweeping through every clone massed around them. He didn't wriggle around to see, but he also didn't allow himself to close his ears against what would come. "Well we know that's banthashit." He'd expected Fox, or Wolffe, or maybe Rex. Hearing it in Boba's childish tenor instead was far worse.

A minor miracle in that this is actually Sunday and the last seven lines I wrote actually work well as a lil snippet. I didn't do either of things on purpose but I'm so very pleased to have done them properly at last.

Edit! No lie babes, for a minute there I straight forgot tagging should happen. I was so caught up in the euphoria, etc etc. In any case, I'm tagging you, yes you, dear viewer! Anybody who wants to. I love you all

#tagged by #acountrygirlsfun #this is from a fic I am not am not am /not/ writing (I will continue to tell myself this until it sinks in through my big dumb skull) #I have enough fics already going where I massively restructure canon and I am /not/ doing another one #even though I'm not writing this fic though I feel like I should polish this scene up. I feel like it isn't sharp enough #I want to do a million more things with how Boba feels about his place in life vs being a clone vs being a true mando vs being Jango's son #and because Boba is feral his entire life (he mellows outwardly after the sarlacc but it's still there. it's still there.) #it works for me better to examine his character through him scoffing at adults who don't get it #('it' being his incredibly convoluted precarious and context-dependent sense of self) #rather than trying to force him to actually perform introspection on the page #anyway I'm not writing this!!!

In order to keep this list reasonable, I'm only going to list things I actually intend to work on again (unfortunately, I have a habit of not actually picking titles for things until I'm ready to share them/start sharing them, but probably some of these will at least be funny):

What a year! I know I'm (very) late with posting this, but I only refound this recap thing in the last few days of 2022 and then I got busy. My most popular post was the one towards the beginning of the year, and I actually reblogged stuff to this blog that wasn't just that one gifset! Whodathunk! The top five has a pretty good range, which I'm happy about. Thank you to everyone in particular who reblogged stuff and added tags, I appreciate those notes the most. And also those asks, hehe.

Tag Game

I was tagged by @i-can-even-burn-salad.

Favorite video game: I really like Oblivion and Assassin's Creed; I'll go with AC: Revelations, the third game in the Ezio trilogy. Broadly speaking I think the Ezio games are the best in the series (though I haven't yet played past AC3), but Revelations is set in İstanbul so it's way more fun for me because I can check out all the places I've been irl, and sometimes random characters yell at you in Turkish which is really funny to me now that I can understand them.

Favorite video game character: Yusuf from Revelations because he looks kind of like my brother lmao

Favorite movie or TV series: Shocking absolutely nobody who has ever looked at my main blog, Xena: Warrior Princess.

Favorite movie or TV series character: Xena herself, no question

Hobbies: leatherworking, writing, sketching, rock climbing

Obsessions: Have I mentioned Xena yet? Because whenever I'm not thinking about my OCs, I'm thinking about Xena.

Favorite genre/type of background music for whump daydreams: Usually I listen to specific songs/playlists for my OCs, since my whump daydreams tend to be about specific characters. Genre is kind of all over the place, but tends to be the type of music I would describe as "vibes" (which I'm aware does not narrow it down at all, especially given I probably have a different definition of vibing music than most).

Favorite whump trope: Ough I'm supposed to just pick one?! OK not necessarily my favorite, but one I like a lot, is whumpees whose trauma turns them into whumpers. Cycles of abuse and whatnot.

Favorite whump pairing: Edit: whoops forgot to answer this one. Uhhh can I put my own OCs? Because if so, Elvan and Asenath; more broadly though any pairing where one person gets hurt and the other person goes feral in response, be it out of defense or revenge.

First time you experienced whumperflies: That scene in Disney's Aladdin where Alaadin is in a prison cell with his wrists shackled to the wall above his head. I haven't seen that movie since I was a very little kid but that's the one scene that stuck in my mind haha

Favorite whump scene from a piece of media: A couple scenes jump to mind from Xena. The first is actually from the show Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, of which Xena: Warrior Princess is a spin-off. The episode is called "The Gauntlet" and is one of the episodes that introduces Xena as a character. As the title implies, the climax of the episode is when Xena's general overthrows her and takes her army, and her own soldiers make her run the gauntlet. Joseph LoDuca has my entire heart and soul for the soundtrack in that scene, and the direction is fuckin impeccable. The other scene is from season 6 of Xena's own show, an episode titled "Who's Gurkhan?" in which (for various plot reasons I won't get into here) Xena and Gabrielle both separately sell themselves into slavery to a sultan; Gabrielle tries to assassinate the sultan but Xena sees her about to go for him and knocks her out cold, stealing the knife, so that they would think it was her instead of Gabrielle; she also plays it off as if she was attacking Gabrielle out of jealousy, rather than there being any threat to the sultan. Anyway the relevant bit is that Xena gets taken to the dungeons and tortured at length, mostly just getting the absolute shit beat out of her, including while being hung upside down by shackles on her ankles. 10/10 incredible whump tbh, while there she also hallucinates Gabrielle bellydancing in front of her because that show is gay as all fuck.

A book you would recommend, whump or not: I would highly recommend the historical fiction Lady Slayers series by Lana Popović! There are two books (so far); Blood Countess, about Erzsébet Báthory, and Poison Priestess, about Catherine Monvoisin. They're overtly queer and very very well written (and decently whumpy tbh).

Add your own question: Favorite whump scene from a book?

I'm leaving this as an open tag as usual; if you want to do it, consider yourself tagged!

#Thanks for the tag!

Excerpt All of this eventually lead to the present, where Artemis was struggling to hide his wheezing breath from Butler so the bodyguard wouldn’t hear that his principal was slowly dying from walking uphill. He swore to himself that once they got back home he’d actually start working out in the gym like he kept telling Butler he was doing. Right after he had finished the super laser he was building.

As he finally reached the top of the slope, he spotted what it was they had come there for. In a small clearing stood several stone pillars and walls surrounding… something.

Reinvigorated at the prospect of a mystery to solve, Artemis picked up the pace and soon found what was at the center of the ruins. A round, sky-blue crystal platform. This was what he was here to investigate.

Synopsis Artemis is investigating an alien artifact giving off weird dimensional energies ("bad vibes," as Qwan and No. 1 put it) when a magic boy shows up to complicate things.

Steven is looking for a corrupted gem when he runs into a pale boy and a large man doing some science stuff on a warp pad.

How does the fairy world of Artemis Fowl and the alien adventures of Steven Universe clash? Read and see!

Fandoms: Artemis Fowl, Steven Universe Rating: Teen and up Words: 5 300 Warnings: Blood mention (not a lot, but it's there), References to Swedish media you haven't heard of Relationships: Artemis Fowl II & Steven Universe Characters: Steven Universe, Artemis Fowl II, Domovoi Butler, Angeline Fowl, Artemis Fowl Senior, Holly Short, Foaly Additional Tags: Crossover, Post-The Atlantis Complex, Post-Steven Universe Future

Author's Notes I decided to go back to update and make some edits to this one. One thing led to another and I basically rewrote the entire thing. Most of the story's the same, but I expanded on some things, fleshed out some details, and fixed a bunch of awkward sentences.

I also changed the title because I realized I didn't like "Artemis Fowl: The Magic Boy" anymore. That ampersand makes all the difference, lemme tell you.

You'll also notice that Vinyáya is alive in this, even though she died in The Atlantis Complex. This is because when I first wrote this story, I forgot that she died in that book. Whoops.

And for the followers of my liveblog: Yes, there are references to The Owl House in this.
