[polliwoggers]

would you believe I sat down five days ago intending to iron out gijinka designs. and then these horrible cats appeared on my screen instead. truly deplorable behavior if you ask me

more info on these cats and their world below the cut. FYI its kind of long

Nightstar - longtime leader of DreamClan, known for his grim efficiency and penchant to orchestrate complex plans well in advance. Also, very full of himself. Has been leader for as long as anyone can remember, but is not open with the Clan about how many lives he has remaining. Does not speak to anyone of his communication with StarClan; not even his deputy or the medicine cats.

Nightmask - deputy of DreamClan and son of Nightstar, for whom he is named. It is just as confusing as it sounds, and neither the Clan at large nor Nightmask himself are all too fond of Nightstar's vain naming decisions. Nightmask is fully confident in his ability to lead the Clan when his time comes, but something about his father having funnelled him into this leadership role from kithood makes him... nervous. Not that he'd show it, of course. That would be weakness. He is a fast and nimble fighter.

Tansyclaw - technically the primary medicine cat of DreamClan, but rarely partakes in healing. Has a vast knowledge of herbs and poisons. Only took on the medicine cat position for the political power it would net for him and his suspiciously close friend, Singlesky.

Acornshine - functional medicine cat of DreamClan, only recently granted her full name as she ascended to full medicine cat status. Although less experienced than her past mentor, Tansyclaw, matters of medicine and communing with StarClan often fall upon her. Looks forward to Ripplepaw’s visits to chat with her in the medicine den.

Darkslash - senior warrior of DreamClan. Blind in one eye from a past battle, with the scar still visible. Came out of retirement to mentor the also visually-impaired Gooeypaw. A bit of a grouch.

Dandytail - warrior of DreamClan, and largest cat in the Clan. his heft and strength grant him the advantage in most every fight, but he has the tendency to get greedy for glory in the heat of battle. This often leads him to attempt and fumble fancy maneuvers that ultimately cost him the win. Not much for hunting, as he struggles to move quietly. Has a big heart, and still acts like a kit in some ways.

Singlesky - warrior of DreamClan, and a gifted speaker. She is excellent at hunting, and will sometimes collect trophies of her more interesting or well-preserved kills. Has a great appreciation for flowers. Her every suggestion is parroted by Tansyclaw at Clan meetings.

Waddlesplash - warrior of DreamClan. Fairly mild-mannered. Dislikes Dandytail. Looks up to Nightmask, who was their mentor before Waddlesplash was promoted to warrior status.

Puffypaw - Apprentice of Nightstar, but is rarely trained by him. instead, Nightmask or another warrior usually fills in for his training. if Nightstar had no intention of training him, why did he choose to make Puffypaw his apprentice in the first place? Nightstar has high expectations for the young cat, it would seem…

Gooeypaw - Apprentice of Darkslash. Is named for his eye condition, which makes his eyes appear constantly goopy and clouds his vision. His poor eyesight makes him more than a little clumsy, and often has to invent new ways of doing tasks other cats would find a breeze. Gets along splendidly with Puffypaw.

Bandedpaw - Apprentice of Dandytail, and first to find Puffypaw all alone in the woods on a windy newleaf day. Together with Gooeypaw, Bandedpaw forms the main triad of Puffypaw's friends in DreamClan. His mentor, Dandytail, is less than enthused that his apprentice is associating with someone he still sees as an outsider, smelling of the twolegplace…

Ripplepaw - Apprentice of Singlesky, and best friends with Acornshine. Conveniently, since Singlesky is always in the medicine den to converse with Tansyclaw, Rippleclaw gets to see her friend quite often! She's extremely proud of Acornshine's promotion to full medicine cat, and hopes that she will earn her full name soon, too! So long as she follows everything her mentor says, she’s sure to become a warrior in only a few moons! Has a small crush on Puffypaw.

Applewhisp - elder of DreamClan, and oldest cat in the Clan. Doesn't do much these days but laze around and huff irritatedly at younger cats who linger too long near the elders' den. Likes to tell stories, but isn’t very good at it. A bit of a pushover.

Harvest Heart - a mysterious, unpredictable cat who claims to have been cast out of the Clans thousands of moons ago -- but it would be impossible for any cat to live that long, wouldn't it? During his travels, he acquired followers from all walks of life. As it stands, he and his small following pose little threat to DreamClan, but it’s always best to stay alert.

Zap of a Passing Storm - the first of Harvest Heart's followers, hailing from a faraway tribe that she refuses to speak about. A fast and vicious fighter, she is easily the most loyal to Harvest Heart's cause -- whenever he can remember what it is, anyway. She often requests to be referred to only by her full name, as anything less than that would be an insult to her honor. No cats respect this. Poor thing.

Francisca - the second of Harvest Heart's followers, having come from the kittypet life in a distant twoleg nest. After her housefolk died, she was turned out onto the cold, unfamiliar streets of the twolegplace. She would surely have frozen to death, were it not for Harvest Heart's charity in her time of need. She travels with him now, as she has nowhere else to go. She has become close with Flamebounce.

Flamebounce - the third of Harvest Heart's followers, originating from the Clans themselves. After a wildfire ravaged her home territory, she was left with nowhere to go, and no idea if any of her Clanmates survived. She struggled to breathe through her smoke-sickness, and would have died if Harvest Heart had not stepped in to help. She greatly misses her old Clan, and often wonders if anyone else managed to escape the fire -- but, even if she were able go back to her old life, she could never leave Francisca behind.

Mags - A wandering loner who sometimes crosses paths with DreamClan. Suspiciously friendly to the Clan cats. Knows a lot about twolegs. Stays very far from Harvest Heart’s rogue group at all costs.

Mars - Never that far behind Mags. thinks it’s hilarious to leave ominous objects for Clan cats to find and catastrophize into some world-ending prophecy. Aside from this odd behavior, he seems totally disinterested in Clan life.

Ms. Susie - beloved kittypet of the CEO of Haltmann Works Land Development Company. Doesn't see why those savage forest cats would mind losing their tacky bushes and trees if it means they could live in the glorious abundance of the twolegplace; or, more likely, she just doesn't care what they think. Often sneaks into Clan territory to meet with cats unknown. Aware of Puffypaw's existence, and could potentially use that knowledge as blackmail material against certain cats in high positions…

Fluffy - a friendly, fluffy kittypet whom Puffypaw likes to chat with to see how things in the twolegplace are going. Often asks if Puffypaw would like to live with him and his housefolk. Puffypaw is hesitant to officially accept or decline the offer, but he's happy to share Fluffy's food when he offers it!

[soranker]

Heya! Saw your cry for a distraction and honestly such a mood.

I've got a question!

What's your least favorite thing to draw/do when you make art?

I'm on my own art journey right now and kind of dread the transition from lineart to coloring.

Trying to study anatomy right now and ignore rendering but I'm curious what other artists feel is challenging or just like 'ugh, ok time for [x]'

OHHH in terms of what's challenging, for me it's definitely coloring, rendering, backgrounds, and composition HAHA (<- chronic flat colors user who only draws character art on a floating white background)

i love focusing on gesture and lines when i draw ^_^ i rely mostly on intuition for the other stuff but it really only takes u so far T_T i'll spend hours trying to fix something by trial and error when i probably couldve saved that time by putting in more conscious studying/practice lol

#the thing that keeps me from getting too down about it tho is that it just takes some dedicated time and practice!!! #one of my goals this year is to take a class on one of those things!! or read a book on it or smth lol #for me i like learning the theory behind those things. makes things click and saves me a lot of time and frustration down the road lol #just the other day i was working on smth and the colors took me FOREVERRRR to figure out T_T #it's like. i kinda knew why the colors didnt work together but i didn't know how to pick the right ones to fix it. #it's nice to have tools to fall back on when you get stuck/intuition fails you #BUT!! everyone is different #the important thing is to not get too hung up on the things you are weak in ^_^ it's only temporary as long as ur patient and practice!! #i think its hilarious how u put it tho 'ugh ok time for' BC IT RLY DO FEEL LIKE THAT SOMETIMES DKJFHASF #me when i finish my sketch/lines. ugh now time for everything else BAHAHA #ALSO SORRY I REPLIED SO LATE this has been sitting in drafts for a while and i forgot to finish writing my response omfg

[lover-of-mine]

I think it's funny when I'm writing for buddie that the tiny Eddie in my head likes to tell me feelings and the tiny Buck in my head likes to tell me situations. Sometimes tiny Eddie won't give a single line of dialogue. Or even setting. Sometimes he's just floating in a void because he won't even tell me where he is. Buck on the other hand, hates to tell me how he's feeling. I had to switch povs before because he won't tell me and I need the scene so I needed to ask tiny Eddie. But sometimes tiny Buck won't shut up, I don't know how we got here, what triggered this confession, or revelation, all I know is that he's in front of tiny Eddie and he wants to say things. I have no control over them. They just do what they want and I'm along for the ride.

#like the buck proposes to Natalia fic #Buck told me how he fixed the situation #but he straight up REFUSES to let me see his mindset during the fight with Eddie #i wanted this fic to be all on Buck's pov #but he wont tell me what he did #he was all HERE'S I FIXED IT #and like beautiful scene my best getting together by far #but i was like buddy baby sunshine i need to know what happened #and he was just shaking his head vicariously to the point that i had to turn to Eddie for him to explain it to me #eddie was like sure lets talk about it #and it took me like 2k words to reach the fight #because he didn't want to talk he wanted to tell me his feelings #i cant keep living like this ksosksoskapakpalspslap #yes they are sentient in my head #i cant force them to do anything lol #thoughts thoughts thoughts

[quil12]

It literally just doesn’t stop lol

#persona 3 #persona 4 #persona 5 #the grilled cheese one looks a little fucked up #but i didn't feel like going back to fix it lol #the texting ones are the hardest to make #but i also think that they're the funniest ones #so... #the effort to reward ratio is worth it #is there also some implied souyo? #yes #of course there is

[whump-n-comfort]

when you read a fic that gives you a hyper-specific whump scenario that you know would either A.) take forever to find in another story or B.) hasn't been written at all so the obvious conclusion is that you have to write it yourself

#whump meme #~my stuff~ #my brain hates me sometimes lmao #i just want a story where two characters are stuck in a broken down car in the middle of winter and having an argument #which leads to one stomping outside in some petty attempt to 'find help' while the other person doesn't realize #what is happening at first. they think their friend is just taking a quick second to catch their thoughts. not the best idea in a snow stor #but the other option is them tearing each others heads off so a little separation is fine. but then their friend starts walking away #and keeps going. so now they have to chase after them to corral them back into the car #because yeah its broken but its still somewhat warm unlike this suicide mission you are attempting!! #and then theres a big blow up because they have kinda been the shit-stirrer so their friend just is #im fixing it!! im being not annoying/useless/something related to whatever they were arguing about!! #so now they get slapped in the face with the fact that they've been taking out their bad day/week on their friend #who was simply being themself and trying to cheer them up/be nice #and when they eventually get back in the car the friend now feels like shit because they not only wasted heat from the car #but they also dragged their friend outside just bcuz they were being a brat so didn't they just prove the other person's point? #so now the two are just in a guilt huddle apologizing for being idiots as they inevitably wait for their rescue #bonus points if the rescue involves their rescuers trying to separate them and the other person just *refuses* to let their friend go #because they have a need to keep the first person warm after feeling like they essentially forced them out into the cold #is that too much to ask?? (i could turn this into an A talks to B scenario... also thinking about my OCs but when am i not lol)

[anophelei]

The people unashamedly trying to take advantage of the thousands of innocent Palestinian people murdered in Israeli war crimes, twisting the knife in the back of Palestine for an opportunity to remind you that you still have to vote for Joe Biden, undoubtedly counting among the people with the most blood on their hands, have already made it clear they do not care about anyone but themselves, and have gone out of their way to prove it.

Somehow they've managed to sink even lower, and are genuinely, in all earnesty, justifying their continued support for Biden in the wake of him pledging his unconditional support of genocide, with the exact same fucking line they used almost 3 fucking years ago to pressure people into voting him into power in the first place. It was already obvious they had no intention of "Pushing Biden to the Left", that they didn't give a single shit about any of the people they were so ardently claiming to be protecting from Trump, and that they would go to the ends of the earth to justify anything and everything he could possibly do.

And now that he's chomping at the bit about aiding and abetting Israel in raining down hell and phosphorous and napalm on innocent people, now that thousands of people have lost their loved ones to such irreverent cruelty, they've decided it's time for an important reminder; Genocide doesn't change anything, and not only do you have to get out and vote for someone complicit in every single atrocity, every single casualty, you have to do it for the same pathetic excuse we made last time, "because we can push Biden to the "left"", even though there hasn't been a single shred of progress, or even any attempt to do so in the three years since we said this last time. You could say that participation in actual, ongoing genocide, is a catastrophic failure in that metric; that we might as well have been pulling this whole fucking time; and right this very moment is the most unbelievably selfish, entitled, petulant and self interested, and abhorrent, manipulative, cruel, spiteful, bitter and fucking disgusting time anyone could have possibly chosen to say this, when people are entirely cut off from their loved ones with no way to know if they are okay, it's important to remember that you're the bad person here due to your belief that supporting genocide in any capacity is an unforgivable crime. The real crime is NOT voting in support of genocide, when the other option is Literal Fascists !!

I'm not even fucking joking, this entire thing started because this piece of shit thought a Palestinian calling people out for supporting Biden was akin to "thinking the entirety of one side is bad", which due to a complex reasoning and nuanced understanding of "this conflict", he was able to realise that was far too simplistic, and now enlightened, knew that attacking enemy toddlers was wrong. So too did he share his nuanced and complex understanding with OP, since they were understanding things too simplistically. "American politics is not that simple either"

Just like killing babies is wrong even if they're on the enemy team, American politics is not as simple as you thinking I am disgusting and selfish for supporting genocide. #nuance

#genocide #Gaza #Palestine #joe biden #free palestine #biden thinks people will cool down come electon. biden supporters think people are stupid enough that they're just going to forget what #“we can push him to the left AFTER the election is over” looked like #it looks like genocide. it sounds like bombs you can hear from 80km away. it smells like pulverised concrete and blood. #it tastes like it smells made worse by parched throats and thirst. #i cannot even begin to imagine what it must feel like. #if you for some reason read the whole mess and are sus about the “biden may not be a fascist” etc it's half just saying that and half for #ambiguity being useful rhetorically. of course they were too oblivious to anything I'd said that they didn't even realise i hadnt said it #idk what i would categorise biden as though. the müller comparison is apt to some extent at least. #also please let me know if any of the phrasing is inappropriate ? I don't really know to what capacity “martyred” n “martyrs” are used #and idk how to use them appropriately therefore didn't use them. the same goes for anything else and i apologise for my ignorance of #Palestinian culture and language and ... in general. it's #unfortunate but I only know the occupation - the Resistance - and their histories - as things I know well. I will do my best to fix that #but for now if I may ask for your help with letting me know. Feel like a yt person for having to ask lol. #from the river to the sea palestine will be free

Menacing black cat crosses my path this October Friday 13th 😳.........

Okay let's try out this new taglist thing with a quick blog update

Blog updates taglist: @phoenix-creates @g0ldgauntlet @void-botanist @thesorcerersapprentice @jezifster @addisons-damn-dialogue @vacantgodling @sergeantnarwhalwrites @athenswrites @wayfarer-orca @toribookworm22 (if you want to change which taglists you're on check this form out. You can fill it out more than once. Sending an ask or a DM is fine too)

On to the actual update:

So I've made a lot of progress with Flipside worldbuilding lately. I don't wanna spoil everything but highlights so far include: Alma has a completely different moveset and appearance now; I'm bringing back a veryyy old OC named PJ (she/it) who is black, sapphic and so tired of some other OCs' bullshit; cosmic amounts of hubris; Landon is finally getting a new outfit; a lot of places and terms are getting name changes, including the AU itself probably.

All of these changes mean that Flipside stuff is officially on hiatus rn. I kinda said that before at some point but I'm repeating it because now it's on hiatus in a good way and I'm not complaining. I'm making a ton of lore changes for the better but they also mean that some WIPs straight up aren't possible anymore, at least not in their current form. I'm currently brainstorming about what kinda new plots I could write about.

I haven't forgotten about digging through the Genshin backlog and posting some of those stories, I've just been doing other stuff but I can probably get around to it soon. It turns out that I'm really digging this whole "just log into Tumblr once or twice per day" thing... Yk besides discord I don't use any social media consistently now? It's doing wild things to my brain

#ken's shit #flipside #blog update #This was going to be on my actual writing blog #But I accidentally typed all the usernames and stuff there and didn't feel like fixing it #So I just.. changed the blog that's posting lol

I wish there was qq fic I liked on ao3 cuz I finished rereading qq so once again I'm like, "so now what...."

#this is purely a me thing #like. to me qq is so good that what I want is 'more qq' and not so much fanfic of qq #hence my struggles #I need more Yan Wushi and Shen Qiao adventures and shenanigans interspersed with the political shit and one-off side characters lmao.. #I can see why this style of writing isn't for everyone bc it's not very 'constructed' but it does work very well for the real-world #historical setting and like. making it feel like these characters exist in the story vs the story being about / For the characters #like they exist in the setting the setting isn't 'for' them #(this is lowkey directed at some post I saw saying they thought the donghua fixed a 'plot hole' in the novel lmao #and I'm like... where ?? lol) #I think it was about the ring but like... no not really lol like. the ring existed but it didn't have to be a macguffin #in fact it gave Madame Qin a deeper sense of history for it to NOT be so central to the story

I needed to kill some time while my test prints ran today so I went into the "for you" tab on Twitter and discovered the most dystopian hellscape known to man. The only post there that didn't do tick damage to my wellbeing was a drawing of some buff anime guy with tasteful dickroot showing. Awful, awful website

#textpost #Most of the people I follow there post in Japanese or as ns/fw or are artists so idk where tf the algorithm got the idea- #-that I wanted to see shit like 'fake' Guilty Gear fan discourse lmfao #Who cares. Who actually cares #There are people who've never played the games or watched the stories and are into it because they like the characters and honestly #That's all that matters. If you like something then you're a fan #It's wild that there's even a debate about that at all #Goddamn nerds. Jesus Christ. Terminal case of 'go outside and feel the sun on your troglodyte skin just once in your life' #Anyway don't wanna end this post on a heavy note. Printer's almost calibrated #Need to plug some numbers into the esteps formula since I wasn't able to brute force it lol #Think there's something wacky going on with the flow rate too but that's on the gcode end so I didn't mess with it today #The filament's got some gnarly stringing going on. Unfortunate but fixable. At least I got the bed extremely calibrated lmfao #The new mainboard works like a dream... The Z-axis doesn't jerk when it first starts moving anymore and the X & Y movements are like silk #Once I fix the stringing issue it will almost certainly be ready for doing big prints like Outrage pieces
