#everything is unfamiliar

[sophieswundergarten]

I am literally never going to be over the fact that Eustace's first instinct was to threaten to sue absolutely any and everyone and he just did not give it up for like, a week and a half or something

Even after being confronted with a talking mouse and all the other normal Narnian nonsense, he really thought he was going to succeed in dragging one of those guys into an English court of law in full armor with a sword, and somehow this would constitute a victory for him

Child. Cross-dimensional lawsuits aren't a thing. And if they were, you would not want C. S. Lewis to be the one who wrote it

#Afsjdkjdskjdf #It cracks me up every time #Of course I do completely understand the comfort that comes with repeating words and plans that make sense to you #Even and especially in instances where everything is out of control and unfamiliar #But Little Sophie was so enamoured with Narnia she couldn't fathom how he wasn't immediately falling in love with the magic of it all #Bigger Sophie gets it now. But she still thinks it's funny. #narnia

// Fortesa Latifi, The Truth About Grief //

#web weaving #we need to talk more about how Odin took away Thor's natural born Asgardian abilities on a whim #leaving him in a mortal body without the strength he's had his whole life #with no one he knew in a world he was unfamiliar with #like sure it worked out conveniently and he gained friends instantly but #the fact that Mjolnir was his weapon and he could *no longer lift it* #not really knowing of the enchantment put on it but also... that was THOR'S weapon #it was thrown in the backwater to face the same disgrace Thor got #do you wonder if Thor thought this meant his banishment was permanent #even before Loki visited him #do you think going from a coronation to being told he didn't deserve it dealt him enough damage for him to reconsider everything #do you think being out from the shade of Odin's favouritism for mere few days caused him grief #even though he wasn't sure quite what he did wrong #even though he was following the footsteps of his father #do you think it bothers Thor once he's worthy again that the enchantment is still on Mjolnir #that even though he's regained his status and strength it's at Odin's behest and can be revoked again if he wants

he just like me fr

#IxTJ 6w5 melancholics after needing to figure out everything about an unfamiliar situation to get closure #else they feel crippling dread and like slackers who are doomed to fail because they can’t figure every last detail out #it’s me I’m IxTJ 6w5 melancholics #elevator hitch #elevator hitch protag

A nightmare.. what happened here?

@realizinau

Edit: omg, ignore the awfully drawn statue of dog day, I didn’t want to go through the effort of making it look good ;-; I’d go insane if I made sure every little detail was perfect

#Yep #that’s catnap on the balcony of home sweet home #also #I was not joking about Unlucky living in a box #anyways #a little premonition about the hour of joy? idk #ik catnap doesn’t get big bitch disease #but it’s how he’s perceived #if he participates in the hour of joy idk #I should’ve thought this one through #oh no I did all this work for it to all be possibly thrown out #noooo #imagine it symbolizes not catnap but everything Unlucky knew being turned upside down and unfamiliar #yup #I’m not redoing it #ignore all bad anatomy because I tried

well ive contractually obligated myself to make a purple robin drawing every month so here is it for dember. happy new year

the posing is based on the volume 10 cover of jojolion :3 it’s so cool…..

#mayor doidles #fanart #fire emblem #fe #fe awakening #fire emblem awakening #fire emblem kakusei #fe 13 #robin #robin fire emblem #m!robin #f!robin #btw for those unfamiliar: f!robin is wearing a design i drew up for her for my hcs :3 to make her visually distinct from m!robin #i had a whole post detailing that stuff but just so you know to clear the air #digital art #cell shaded #the colors on this remind me of my younger days when i vomited color overlays over everything #but i did not use any blending modes to achieve the colors! i had a color scheme i found online and stuck to that #i really liked the style i came up with for the two big oc drawings i made earlier this month so i tried to imitate that again #with some extra additions like the screen tones #yay! 😝

Hermittober Day 22: Shard!

Tango has a shard in his hand, what will he do?

#hermittober #tangotek #hermitcraft #mcyt #tangotek fanart #my art #phoenix draws #au idea where Tango was a hiker who got lost during a snowstorm and stumbled into a cave. its very dark and cold but there's this strange- #-rock everywhere that's giving off a faint glow and it slightly warm to the touch. so he breaks off a piece and curls up around it. and as- #-the snowstorm gets worse and worse outside he just gets sleepier and sleepier and- oddly enough- the crystal gets warmer and warmer #eventually tango finally gives in and falls asleep something that means death in his situation #but it doesn't #when he wakes back up the sky is clear but the terrain is unfamiliar and unwelcoming. the snow covered everything that Tango couldve used- #-to identify where he was and. he finds he doesnt really mind. he'll just stay here in the cave. besides isnt that what you're supposed- #to do when you're lost? so Tango wanders back into the cave where he finds theres structures he couldnt see before in the dark. they're- #-a little worn down but tangos got time so he rolls up his sleeves and starts repairing things. he doesnt notice that hes not hungry- #-despite not having anything since hours before he fell asleep. he doesnt notice how the tips of his fingers are slightly frostbitten but- #-undamanged #And above all else #he doesnt notice #that He. #Isnt #Cold #um. oops. i wrote a minific in the tags #anyways now imagine regular tango doing a magical girl transformation into The Dungeon Master

[superbellsubways]

favorite part about my virtual assistant guys is that theyre all related to some kind of program except for coppy ... i just like to include him cuz why not lol

#hes literally a parody of clippy but idc man #bc of this people end up being so confused as to what hes supposed to be if theyre unfamiliar with him #its funny #i just think he fits into the whole office environment kinda thing i mean hes literally. a copy machine #also tumblr does not givea damn about him unless they wanna make a few bucks (using him for merch and everything) #meanwhile im just sitting here .appreciating him bc he is silly and i like to work with characters that have very little of anything to them #lalala

some stats on the number and types of games kuusuke has played with kusuo:

Total Games (as of kuusuke’s introduction in chapter 105):  4,254

Regular Games:

Rock-Paper-Scissors: 725

Shiritori: 31

Shogi: 59

Othello: 51

Chess: 10

Card Games (including uno): 279

Video Games: 189

Sugoroku: 8

Mahjong: 4

Yu-Gi-Oh Cards: 52

Magical Banana: 18

The Senda Mitsuo Game: 7

The above accounts for 1,433 games (33.7% of the total)

Moreover, if kuusuke’s attempts to steal kusuo’s right limiter are counted as a game, then kuusuke has lost “thousands of times.” (thousands, plural, so at least 2000? could be hyperbole, but for the sake of calculation..)

Stealing Kusuo’s limiter: at least 2,000 games (47% of the total)

Regular Games + Stealing Kusuo’s Limiter: at least 3,433 games (80.7%)

That leaves 821 games unaccounted for (19.3%). These could be anything, from more attempts to steal Kusuo’s limiter, to regular games not included in the above list, like hide-and-seek or tag.

Here’s the same information, presented as a pie chart:

To determine game frequency, let’s set up a timeline.

Kuusuke attributes his first ever loss to a game of tag. He was 5 years old.

Kuusuke’s last game would’ve occurred before he went to Cambridge for university; he would’ve been 14.

That’s 9 years of games total.

We can also assume an uneven distribution.

Kuusuke invented the limiters during his first year of middle school- which is to say, he would’ve been 12 years old.

That means at least 2000 games were conducted in a span of two years.

Since the game frequency is clearly different depending on if we’re looking at pre-limiters or post-limiters, i’ll keep things simple and attribute the regular games solely to the pre-limiter era, while the post-limiter era is defined by stealing kusuo’s limiter.

i’m not sure how to depict this graphically, but here’s my attempt:

Without accounting for the 821 unknown games:

Pre-limiters, they were playing one game every two days.

(Pre-limiters = 7 years = 2,555 days. They were playing regular games. 1,433 games / 2,555 days = 0.561 games per day.)

Post-limiters, they were playing 2 to 3 games per day. 

(Post-limiters = 2 years = 730 days. assuming all of the games in this period were about stealing kusuo’s right limiter, 2000 games / 730 days = 2.74 games per day).

Factoring in the unknown games raises the frequency of whichever category they’re added to. Hypothetically, if they were all regular games, then the pre-limiters game frequency rises to 0.88 games/day. On the other hand, if they were all attempts at taking kusuo’s limiter, then the post-limiters game frequency rises to 3.86 games/day.

n e ways that’s all i’ve got. no big conclusion here, just trying to pinpoint how saiki’s home life may have changed at certain points.. sorry if this became less legible towards the end, but i’ve totes run out of steam ^^;

#hmm kind of uncertain about this one #idk i feel like the premise might be a little too contrived #whateverr i liked running the numbers and i'm only doing this for fun anyway #oh btw i know some of the games listed here are probs unfamiliar. ''magical banana'' for example #i did google that stuff so i can promise you that everything on that list is a real game! #saiki kusuo #saiki kuusuke #saiki k

consider

pentious was DEAD dead when lute killed him,

his mind wont remember being dead but his soul likely will

it was nothing, dark, empty, SILENT.

knowing what its like to not exist would be absolutely jarring for a human soul its something we are not supposed to know as we cant comprehend nonexistence, it would probably fuck us up royally.

which makes him develop a deep internalized fear of silence, the dark and being alone.

S t o p I just got all the angst out of my system 🫢🫢🫢

#i dont have any more angst energy but gawDAMM THIS IS YUMMY #something something laying awake at night remembering the darkness youre unfamiliar with #and yet all too familiar with #hello darkness my old friend more like hello darkness i who are you?? #sometimes that emptiness consumes everything and nothing can bring him out of it #just gotta let it pass #and no one knows whats happening or how to fix it #G A W D A M #asks #pepper answers #no cuz i might ACTUALLY write a what-if scenario if this keeps up #god possesses pentious au #dark edition #hazbin hotel #sir pentious

Omori was created for the sole purpose of protecting the dreamer, Sunny. Keep him from anything harmful, keep him from discovering the Truth, anything that can possibly hurt him. And Omori resolved to do so from start to finish, a mechanical clockwork of duty he had been enacting for 4 years. It’s so simple, and oh so easy for him.

Except, it wasn’t.

Not when he started gaining his own sentience, not when he started thinking for himself. Not when everything started to fall apart as he recalled all the past resets.

Arriving in Blackspace always mean one thing. The dreamer is close to discovering the Truth again. An area that is ever changing and never constant, with pitch black doors leading to cursed sights that Sunny buries deep in his mind, it’s something that Omori had gotten used to.

“Omori... You came back for me!”

It seems he had chosen a door leading to Basil’s one of many deaths. He’s used to it.

“Watermelons sure are delicious!“

He’s used to it.

“Summer vacation with friends was the best, wasn’t it?“

He’s used to it.

Walking to the far right, finding themselves in a room full of watermelons scattered about with Basil closely following behind in silence. He’d cut open every watermelon he sees for the key, the way out of the place. Until his cut was directed to Basil instead, turning it bits and pieces of a bloody watermelon staining the floor behind him. He didn’t look, and instead continued to cut the one in front of him, grabbing the key to hurriedly leave the place with pursed lips. Unbeknownst to him that he subconsciously bit his inner cheek, not too much so as to draw blood, but it is an action foreign to a boy with neither a will and emotion of his own. Supposedly.

Omori continued opening the other doors.

. . .

“Oh, thank goodness you’re here, Omori. I thought I was gonna be stuck here forever.“

Another impending death. Omori stared at Basil for a moment, trapped within a large cobweb. He easily gets him free with one slash.

“Phew... That feels so much better.“

He led the way just the same as he once did with the other one.

“You know... I think spiders are really misunderstood...” Basil started to talk again.

Omori merely listened in silence.

“There’s so many spiders here all of a sudden...“

They continued to walk again. Omori tightly clutched his knife. He’s feeling a certain emotion he has yet felt at all, he doesn’t know what to describe it as.

“Ack! They’re biting me!”

The feeling grew. What is it, what would the others describe it as. Omori glanced at Basil. There were too many spiders on him, it made Omori feel uneasy. Was it uneasiness? No, it couldn’t be. Basil was comforting the spiders, awaiting Omori to move again.

They’ll hurt him. They’ll kill him.

Another impending death...

Could I... prevent that?

Omori took a deep breath as he turned around.

“Wh-what is it, Omori? Why are you holding your knife like that?“

“Stay still...“

Omori carefully swatted the spiders away with the blunt side of the knife before slashing them with its blade.

“Oh! Th-thanks! But.. ack!“

He kept at it. Yet no matter how much he swat away and kill, more emerges from seemingly nowhere. And soon, there was far too many of them.

“There’s so many of them... I can’t get them off!“

Omori can only watch in horror as Basil was engulfed by them.

I couldn’t prevent it...

Perhaps, he never could. Omori continued on to find the key and open another door.

#ariawrites #lost au #another writing jumpscare boo! #anyway in this au omori got sentience earlier #and started to have emotions too! but hes unfamiliar with everything #spoiler alert: it was worry that he felt during the part of basil with spiders #also i wanted to write more by covering all the basil deaths #and omori just breaking away from his duty as he tries to save basil each time #i think the only time omori gets blindsided is the death of the raft #during the elevator part omori tried to hold the door open #but it wont budge at all and unfortunately if he continued to hold onto it #his hands boutta get cut too so he had to back away as the door slammed shut #omori gets kinda desperate with the other death scene #he blocks playground bs aubreys bat but basil gets killed by kel instead #getting real desperate as he gets to the church area #really wanna free basil but he has a feeling that thats not the right choice #sadly had to kill that one instead #so when it got to the part of basil in red space #omori spared him which ties in well with the last snippet of this au #omori spoilers

that episode of blue's clues where they taught kids to take control of upsetting images in their nightmares through lucid dreaming was the gateway to conceptualising my own conscious and subconscious thoughts as a toddler

#the importance of relatable media for small babies is not to be understated #little kids are unfamiliar w/ Everything. the entire first few years of your life are a constant ''other people do this???'' moment

she keeps getting her hands on such gorgeous items but it always just turns out mid. also the last one is a prada jumpsuit that she sliced up herself with a pair of scissors.

Frenchie pressing in close but keeping Fang’s arm between him and Izzy is such a smart and kind move. He understands that no one but Fang can hold Izzy like that and have it work, but he still wants to express his support with physical proximity. He gets as close as he can while still affording Izzy the barrier that is Fang, and it’s so gentle and shows an emotional and situational awareness that is integral to Frenchie as a character.

#frenchie ofmd #ofmd s2 #ofmd season 2 #ofmd s2 spoilers #I think there’s also a reason it’s frenchie who says the toe line #he doesn’t shy away from addressing hard realities but he’s also not the person who can jump right in with trying to comfort izzy because #he’s not fang and he hasn’t spent as much time with Izzy as fang has. and frenchie is the kind of person who can read relationships like #that and understand that fang needs to be the closest to izzy and needs to take the emotional lead #fang HAS to be very in it very close to izzy because literally no one else could do that. jim has to be farther removed and coached through #their part because stuff like this is so uncomfortable and unfamiliar to them so they’re gonna be more on the sidelines not really knowing #what to do or expect. but frenchie is observing so actively and making such informed choices the whole time about just HOW close to get. #just what to say and how much to reveal and how to say it. #obsessed with frenchies brain frenchie is everything to me #of all my like top favorites hes the only one that’s made it through to s2 to im gonna be so all about frenchie now
