My favorite archetype of any media has to be "Really adorable artstyle and visuals with a story that quickly becomes incredibly dark."

I'm serious. Which of these games do you think features more dead children? (The answer might surprise you!)

Which of these shows kills more of its named characters in the first season? (The answer will probably not surprise you, but it's really damn close!)

I'm a sucker for any of the BBS designs for them. It's a massive weakness of mine.

Inducing the Aid of the Oak Tree Lord

I had to run some errands that took me a ways away from home today, and while I was there, I realized I was actually fairly close to a butte that I occasioanlly visit in order to propititate a great, hollow-bearing Oak Tree which grows there. Since I've done some potent and highly effective magic with the help of the Oak Tree Lord recently, I thought I would go to him again with another request. Specifically, my stores of Hollow Water have begun to run low, and I've been needing to replenish it. We had some very wet weather not long ago, which made me think I would be easily able to retrieve the water I needed from another tree hollow I've drawn from before, but following a sudden spell of hot and dry weather, I was chagrined to discover a hollow that was very wet, but not full enough to retrieve water from. I was worried I might have missed my chance to get more for a while, but given that the Oak Tree Lord helped me find the last source of Hollow Water I drew from, it seemed worth going to him again.

Being an unplanned visit, I didn't have any of the normal tools I would have with me for such an endeavor—such as a flask for collecting water, a lance for drawing blood, or anything on hand for me to offer the Oak Tree Lord—but a mage must frequently make do. In the end, I collected 13 Galls from other Oaks around the butte, each of which I painted with my blood (thanks to the help of a nearby Hawthorn copse) and then fed to the Oaken Mouth of the tree I came to propititate. I also gave a wreath that I wove from dandelion flowers.

Literally minutes later, I was overjoyed (and a little astonished) to stumble upon exactly what I was looking for. The natural font was deep and pungent, and what's more, the tree which bore it was an old Oak itself. I carried out the necessary ritual actions and gathered the water using my emptied water bottle (which I will be cleaning very thoroughly after this.)

What I gathered has since been transferred into an old glass vessel that I found once I was done, being sold for only $6 at a nearby junk shop I'd never noticed before. This should definitely last me a good while.

The Grove Elders—an assembly of tutelary tree deities possessing immense wisdom and power—are a truly amazing group of entities to work with.

Been replaying PMD Red Rescue Team lately and-

I might've got (the start of) an idea

#hollow knight #pokémon #slimes doodles #tfw you die and your spirit is dragged into an 'eldritch' universe #but the inhabitants are just as confused and even wary about you #you don't have a normal spirit‚ and so weirdness ensues #... will I get farther with this? no idea #but it's fun nonetheless to idly be self-indulgent

MY favourite bleach head canons in no particular order

1. the idea that all shinigami in gigai give off uncanny valley vibes

Basically like Isshin, whose not quite human but not quite shinigami, meets some of Ichigo’s friends when he was a kid like Tatsuki and she obviously met his mom before and she was nice so she wasn’t expecting much from his dad and then she meets him and her first reaction is ‘what the fuck is that???’

The kurosaki kids, who have grown up with their dad and have pretty high levels of reiatsu, don’t actually realize this while their human friends just instinctually avoid Isshin ‘cause they feel like something’s off about him

of course over time and with extended exposure to Ichigo’s reiatsu, the weirdness kinda fades away but anyone outside of Ichigo’s circle generally avoids all the shinigami that come to Karakura in gigai for those reasons

2. all animals hate shinigami except cats and crows

literally for no reason besides the fact that I like them

I love the idea of shinji with his creepy ass smile just perched on top of a telephone pole and if he stays still long enough, crows will start sitting on him XD

I also have cats that I love and I love the idea of Ichigo just chilling on his bed with an orange cat and doing the purring thing with it while he’s sleeping

And then when he goes to a pet store with Rukia because she wants to see bunnies, all the animals go ballistic anf they get kicked out XD

3. the visored + ichigo with animalistic traits

laying down on hot things because it feels nice on their skin and soothes something in their lizard brains

eyes that flash hollow yellow when they feel intense emotion (inspired the scene in the anime where Aizen says that hollowification is faster when agitated so emotions heavily affect their appearance

I like the idea that they get very tactile with people they care about (not in a romantic way) and they get into little wrestling matches over stupid stuff because that’s they’re idea of playing and bonding

Shinji gives cat vibes, you can’t even tell me he doesn’t just look at him. When cats make eye contact as they push something off the table- that’s him

I also really like the idea of the hollowification affecting their zanpakuto. Given that Ichigo was pretty much born with his hollow, he doesn’t notice the different the way the Visored do 

Shinji’s whole standing upside down and reversing the gravity on himself, I like the idea that it came after his hollowification and if he wishes he can do it to others

Idk if there’s any jjk manga readers her but you know that attack kenjaku has where he makes you feel like you’re falling but you’re not really? He does it to Yuji a few times when he’s fighting mahito and I love the idea of Shinji having that ability, just completely fucking up their sense of reality and direction

I haven’t thought of the other visored abilities but from my other AU that I will never write, I mentioned that Kaien was hollowified as well so I love the idea of him just being completely obsessed with everything water related and having an affinity for any water type kido and being able to control minor amounts of water without actually drawing Nejibana and being able to breath under water

4. all zanpakuto spirits do commentary in their weilders head

but only ppl like Ichigo and Toushiro who have incredibly powerful spirits that they can literally talk to in the middle of a fight can actually hear

Like Zabimaru, haineko, and all the other zanpakuto are just constantly making fun or nitpicking the way their weilder uses them

But Ichigo is the only one who has to suffer through Zangetsu (Shiro) cackling in his head while Toushiro gets useful feedback and Ichigo’s just completely done with him

a sadder headcanon: all zanpakuto spirits talk to their weilders regularly however, the Visored because of their own fear of their hollowification have estranged themselves from their zanpakuto spirits and like Shiro is hostile with Ichigo in canon, the others are like ten times worse

5. If Ichigo every actually seals his zanpakuto, he’d be incredibly sensitive to reiatsu (I forgot to add this one the first time and I didn’t wanna make another post XD)

I personally love this little explanation of Ichigo’s powers and you know how Ichigo is just really shitty at sensing reiatsu at the beginning? Shinji commented on it a couple times and seemed pretty confused by it.

I think that part of the reason why he’s so bad at it-- especially after the SS arc ‘cause remember he was actually pretty good at sensing back then-- is because after he achieved Bankai, Hollow Zangetsu was in control rather than OMZ and with that switch in power came a significant uptick in his own reiatsu to the point where Ichigo actually feels like he’s being crushed by his own power and he can feel how close Shiro is for the first time and he’s actually scared of his own power

Hiyori even comments about how he’s scared of his own bankai because the distance between him and Shiro decreases everytime he gets stronger since Shiro gets stronger with him

Anyways, we’re not devolving into an analysis about Ichigo and Shiro but eventually Ichigo learns how to sense things properly even with his own reiatsu

So when he finally seals Zangetsu and he’s no longer covered by his own power because it’s finally sealed, he’s gonna be sensing things so much stronger and get sensory overload only it’s ✨reiatsu sensitivity✨

6. Souls in the Society age until they find an appearance both they and their reiatsu level is comfortable with (Another one because I’m an idiot and I forgot)

Excluding Toushiro’s weird case of appearanc shifting but I guess that could be attributed to his bankai’s weirdness that I don’t know much about

I don’t think we’ve gotten on actual explanation on how souls age so I’ve decided to apply this hc

Basically the reason why ppl like Unohana, who looks incredibly similar to herself from a thousand years ago, the only difference being how much less sinister she looks and how calm she looks

Plus, all the characters from the Turn back the pendulm arc barely changing over a hundred years is wild

I initially thought of it as comparing every decade a soul lives to ever year a human lives but that didn’t feel right so I chose this

If anyone wondered where I've been: I've been dog sitting at my parents house and am closing in on finishing the outline for AEIWAM so I can start posting.

Today's highlight was "I guess what I'm really asking is: what's everyone going to therapy for, and what does the solution to that particular issue look like if physicalized into a weapon or tool?"

#dogs #aeiwam #an elephant is warm and mushy #bleach fanfic #i have possibly entered the Neon Genesis Evangelion phase of world-building but DAMN if it doesn't make for some badass visuals #also #this just in: a zanpaktou spirit and an inner hollow are the same thing at different levels of Maslow's hierarchy #also also #god is actually a computer that reproduces like a staghorn fern #and kido is the reverse chinese room of its coding language

Based off White Zangetsu's BLEACH BRAVE SOULS Spirit Society Demon Form. And the initial rough concept of BLEACH's HELLverse. (I don't support the resurrect any important character nonsense) 

But anyhow, Zangetsu marched into Hell and declared himself Overlord. If there was a previous ruler, they are no more. If Hell's guards attacked him before, then they now serve him. It is said his spiritual power burns as hot as the sun.

He grew more horns that twisted in different ways. The chains on his arms aren't a declaration that he's a prisoner. He willingly wrapped them around his garbs. The gold-encrusted bones and skulls help identify him as ruler, and the chains, apart from those that are HIGHLY powerful, can act as unbreakable whips and shields. He loves to swing them around like weapons. They are also a security feature. They tie him to Hell's heart, and thus, if his body ever perishes, he is auto-rebirthed into the lava pools to take revenge. 

Perhaps he will use this newfound power to tip the scales of the realms. To declare war on Squad Zero in return for Ichigo's freedom. Or perhaps, Ichigo's well-being is of no consequence. Perhaps Zangetsu is just pleased to be wild and free.

In the spirit of being incredibly self-indulgent - maybe the Pale King tending to THK's wounds after they leave the Black Egg?

I suppose i can draw pk being a good dad this once, but just for you alright!

Thinking about how Desolate Dive absolutely melts the Watcher Knights and is capable of getting Ogrim out of his burrowing attack and how we get Desolate Dive from none other but Soul Master himself.

It makes me wonder if Soul Master specifically fashioned Desolate Dive to counter the Watcher Knights in case Lurien or the other Authorities in City of Tears ends up finding out about his experiments in the Soul Sanctum.

After all, looking at the ingame map, the area where we fight Soul Master is covered and literally made into the stone of the cavern. The entire area where we find the drained bug corpses in is carved into the stone, no windows, no doors.

So even though Lurien has his telescope pointed at the Soul Sanctum, he couldn’t see anything that was suspicious because it was hidden directly out of his sight. It wasn’t like Lurien (from what we know of him anyway) could’ve seen through stone walls now could he?

It might just be a coincidence but it’s an interesting thought.

#may asher rambles #hollow knight #lurien #soul master #watcher knights #hk lurien #hk soul master #desolate dive melting the watcher knights might be a little exaggerated #since the player would probably also have vengeful spirit and sometimes shriek for that boss battle #but since soul master does have other spells under his belt I don't think it's too far fetched #does Dive give Soul Master invincibility frames as well? #I'm not sure but I do know he can be hit before the Dive
