I'm so sorry I'm pretty sure your bard au is supposed to be serious but oh my god I couldn't help but get strong Men In Tights and Monty Python and the Holy Grail vibes

Especially bc of Barnaby I would not put it past him to make a "your mom's a hamster" reference

no no it Is very silly. how can it not be when you've got the neighbors as the characters? silly central. ALSO YOU'RE SO RIGHT VERY STRONG MP&HG VIBES I FUCKING LOVE THAT MOVIE HERE'S SOME REFERENCES

but it is also real. when it's silly its silly and when it's serious!

it's serious.

#one of my favorite gags in that movie has always been the coconut halves used to make horse hoof sound effects #since they didnt have horses <3 #and barnaby doesnt have hooves so. they make do! #i also like to imagine that in this au at least barnaby and frank kinda beef sometimes #like barnaby will purposefully rile frank up but then frank will say something that hits a little too close to home #so barnabys like 'ok bet' and puts a little more bite in his bark #and before you know it they have to be separated to cool off! #and also sally still doing plays. gettin artsy with em and sometimes doing puppet shows instead of a live play #a la The Professor's history show but uh. with more budget and production value #paper puppet eddie running across the stage... #scribble salad #rambles from the bog #wh fantasy au #tw blood #just in case! there's a bit there <3 #ahhh warlock wally my beloved.... #normally he is so nice and so kind and favors a pacifist route #but sometimes he gets pushed A Little Too Much and then! well! people die! #that scribble is actually from a whole Scene and Plot i have in my mind #where - essentially - he and home get separated by cultists who want to harness home or something #and after a few months of separation they reunite! #and the cult gets their shit absolutely Wrecked! literally none of them escape alive! #wally/home: we're baaaaack! time to die while we feast on your souls!

I love Astarion. My Tav’s feelings are more… complicated. ❄️🌸

Text/Speech Bubbles:

Astarion: *flirting as a way to deflect and to manipulate Tav*

Arrow text: My incredibly autistic rogue who hates being bullshitted

Tav: “Listen, I don’t know what kind of shit you’re trying to pull, but it is NOT gonna work on me- Got it?”

Astarion: “I don’t know what you’re talking about darling~ ”

Tav: “Yes, you do. I like you Astarion. More than you’d think. But do not mistake my kindness for yielding.

Goodnight!”

Astarion: “… heh.

May I still feed on you tonight?”

Tav: “Yes! Now, FUCK OFF!!!”

#and yes i do see the irony in a rogue not liking bullshit #its moreso not liking interpersonal bs-ing #as opposed to occupational bs-ing #astarions whole schtich at the start just makes me squirm a bit bc it reminds me of people i care about very dearly #hits a lil too close to home #frogs art #bg3 #centavo #bg3 tav #digital art #dnd #baldurs gate 3 #baldurs gate oc #bg3 oc #astarion #astarion acunin #bg3 comic #comics #digital sketch

I wonder if Kipperlily wanted to be friends with Riz. I wonder if this tiny, intense little overachiever saw him with his briefcase and his business cards and thought she'd found a kindred spirit. I wonder if Kipperlily was bullied for being too nerdy, for caring more about her academics than her peers and was hoping Riz would get that.

I wonder if it stung to watch him become friends with the coolest kids in school. If it hurt to realize that he isn't like her, to see all the personality traits people disliked in her get loved and accepted by a group of people who chose him.

#kipperlily copperkettle #there's something so sweet about riz focusing on investigating what trauma changed them from the high five heroes to the Ratgrinders #and him saying he's usually the one who remembers her name #like #he doesn't like her either #but he's not blatantly antagonistic like the girls are #and I think about Jawbone saying she hit a bit too close to home #idk man #i just adore Riz Gukgak #d20 fhjy #fhjy #dimension 20 #if i die #let me die

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the fact that, in the Yiddish version of Fiddler on the Roof, in "Shadkhnte, Shadkhnte" ("Matchmaker, Matchmaker"), the line which in the English version is:

"For Papa, make him a scholar"

becomes

"Der Tate, darf oyf a minyen"

or, in other words:

"My Dad needs him for a minyan"

#what a mood #jumblr #frumblr #judaism #fiddler on the roof #yiddish #yiddish fiddler on the roof #dandelion says #jewish dandelion #all I can say is this hits a bit too close to home this new year's with 95% of the community out of town

Rip Hannibal, you would’ve loved Saltburn (2023)

#or maybe not #the themes of obsession would have hit too close to home #but then again #Oliver was always so polite #a bit pathetic #but polite #Hannibal #hannibal nbc #saltburn

[sheriffofmagic]

obsessed w emily's insistence on making fig and ayda's romance as epic and sappy as possible. theyve only been dating for a few months and fig considers being a "wizard's paramour" a core tenet of her personality. "my girl friend says hello". ayda hid a message in the past to fossilize through the ages for fig during her time travel field trip. fig cuddles the fossils ayda left her. like no matter how much the fandom ships figayda the number one figayda stan will always be miss emily axford

#excited for tonights episode because i truly have no clue where this season is going #also tangent but as someone who grew up with a single mom in not great financial circumstances everything w riz is #hitting a bit too close to home lmao #d20 #fh #junior year #figayda

Oh yeah, Riz is going to break my heart this season. For sure.

just finished season 2 of spn. im hooked and I'm so sick from that one jinn ep. I can't handle seeing Dean being so happy and domestic n knowing it's all fake. I'm so sick!!!!!

#when I saw that ep was abt jinns I got spooked ngl #the jinns hit a bit too close to home #I was so scared for Dean n sam #jinns are scaryyyy #way scarier than other creatures in my opinion #bubuslutty talks #spn #supernatural #dean winchester #sam winchester

the thing about 4.03 is that obviously the centerpiece of the episode and the most important part of it is the siblings reaction to logan's death but its a sequence that is so perfectly written and executed it feels unanalyzable to me. its such a perfect representation of grief in general but also these specific characters and who they are and the impact this event has on them specifically. there is nothing that I can say about that sequence which is useful or valuable or has any additional insight because its all right there. nothing me or anyone else says is going to do a better job of expressing what's going on and who these people are than 'you did a good job' or 'i can't forgive you but I love you' or 'are you just being nice to me?' or 'he never even liked me'. if the significance or impact of those lines isn't immediately obvious to you then I simply cannot help you

#its also just like yeah thats what losing your dad unexpectedly is like. and i dont say that flippantly #its amazing that they were able to communicate that experience so well #but if you dont get it i just cant help you #anyways thats part of why i have not talked about the siblings at all. what the fuck could me or anyone else say really #succession spoilers #also tbh the roys grief is a bit too much for me and hits a bit too close to home so i cant really talk about it #other aspects of the episode feel more accessible

Just watched nimona and now I have to sit down

#hoooo boyyyy that hit a little bit too close to home #this movie got hands #ive got so many thoughts ill write it later when i write my thoughts on pavitr

[storytellering]

Love your art and I'm generally curious as to what the appeal of Dante/Vergil is to you? Do you have any hc that you're drawing from or is it just personal preference? I struggle to imagine the right conditions for them to be involved in that way and would like to know what inspires you.

I will premise this by saying, that I’m actually not a MASSIVE fan of just DV for its own sake, if Nero isn’t also included (or like, with the assumption he will, 100%, be included once he’s in the picture). To me it’s kind of a baseline pairing?

As in, I don’t even have to think about it. Of course they’re in love, of course they’re together, of course they’re fucking. It’s almost an afterthought to me, the way the married parent couple of the protagonist in a story inherently are. It doesn’t necessarily interest me by itself, that fact, it’s just a certainty, it just is. I guess, for me, the interest in DV specifically comes more out of what other people make of it, because for me I’m almost always approaching first from the perspective of Nero being there also, haha.

There’s also the fact that I have a lot of hc about just like, the way demons function as a species, I guess. I took a lot of things dmc canon gave me and went like, “alright, time to project this into the most self indulgent, non-human society but humanoid looking species I can think up in my brainhead”. To me a lot of the appeal comes from it being not necessarily a predestined thing as much as like, a biological inevitability - (going to speak in definitives about my own hc from here on, so not making any statement about canon dmc lol) demons mate with their kin, and with whoever deems worthy - and twins from the same litter would inevitably end up being the other’s first partner, their first choice, their other half. In a sense, to me, they’re soulmates - though honestly I prefer to think of it more as two halves of the same soul, following the implications in 3 and the 3 manga that them being twins comes from the spawn of Sparda being too powerful to just be born in one body. That might sound like I’m just saying they’re soulmates in a different way, but not really - to me, if I had to go the soulmate route, Nero would be both of their soulmate - because the two of them make one single soul, and the match to that would be Nero’s.

I kind of just go off of the assumption that they are in love and have been since they were in the womb, you know?

That colors the way I see their every interaction. To me, in their fighting, their squabbles and their feuds, there’s always love at the source. Familial, yes, but romantic and sexual as well - and to me, when I think about them, it’s all one and the same. To love each other like family is to be intwined, is to be mated, is to be a pack and is to be one.

That’s the more deep thoughts I have about it, I have more shallow/surface thoughts (and specifically ship dynamic thoughts about like, what appeals to me about them sexually lol) but if I had to quickly sum it up that’s what I would say, I think. 

#Sorry if this is a bit jumbled/all over the place lol #I actually never really stopped to think about it besides just liking it i guess #Like to me things like dante’s lines to vergil read as flirting the fights read as full of tension #every time I see them fighting I could very easily picture them just stopping mid stab to make out yknow #I guess it also comes down to how much you personally like conflict in a ship #or how much rivalry/fighting reads as charged or tension to you #Plus again the whole demon thing #And in a way also ig I just really like thinking of demon twins as a mating pair #I like them hybrid the best but in that context I do like to hc vergil as super fertile and Dante as near infertile #and them navigating this nature in a sense of like. It’s not what they want out of life. #It’s not what they naturally gravitate towards nor what they would choose if it were up to them. #But its nature and its playing cruel tricks on them #and ig in a way to me that’s a feeling I like to project as a trans allegory #I don’t often veer to making characters trans in a realistic human way bc it hits a bit too close to home #And rather I prefer adding a lot of things that are exactly like being trans but not in a human way #And I think that’s that to me yknow? #Nature + instinct imposing something on you that you have to actively struggle against for the rest of your life #And compensating and making yourself be perceived as who you feel yourself to be despite of it #Yes this is still all about weird demon pseudo omegaverse bullshit no I cannot physically hold myself back from getting into it #asks #vague mpreg allegory/mention #thank you for the question! lots of food for thought lol #spardacest
