message from santa: "happy holidays post-it-notes! 🎄🥳 i know you very politely only wished for a few modest things- characters high fiving, or struggling in christmas attire- but i hope you'll still enjoy this given that i kinda went the opposite direction entirely! i'm an enormous fan of your work and most times you post anything i wind up browsing your art tag from tip-to-tail in enraptured delight. as such, i thought it was only fair i give back something a little more significant in gratitude for all the joy your work has given me. i knew i wanted to do a comic, so i was thrilled you already had a whole storyverse for me to work from!! this scene seemed the most obvious choice (chapter 8 of "wishful thinking" on ao3) given that i enjoy a dramatic fight scene 😂 i tried to stick as beat-by-beat to the writing as i could and worked in as many details as possible; i hope it'll be fun to see it envisioned this way! merry christmas! ~starflung 🎀🔔 "

#phew... this is by far the most ambitious piece i've ever posted here! 12 pages! this is why i've been so afk from other work haha! #shout out to the poor mods who sent through assignments and received no small amount of all-caps panicked screaming from me in response!! #me?! draw a gift for THE post-it-notes7!? immediately knew i had to overachieve to stand any hope of being up to the bar haha #if you feel these characters look a little different to how i usually draw them- that's totally on purpose! #i worked really hard to match post's designs and styling for them rather than my own; seeing as this was a gift! #actually think it stands out a *lot* surprisingly- given that they are still the exact same orbs. really interesting to compare to my usual #i hope some folks will notice all the details from the story in here! if you've read it and you recognised it please let me know! #genuinely hoping someone just recognises it on the first page. iconic canyon fight... what an honour to draw for this fic tbh #also thank you to the mods for handling all the wips and progress on this ridiculously sized entry from me with such grace #it's being posted on my personal blog due to length for anyone wondering. should be seamless... fingers crossed. #my art #my comics #meta knight #galacta knight #hnk secret santa #cw violence

Something I’ve been thinking about lately is that small moment in “Air Turtle” where immediately after the Daves lose yet another game, Leo says how sorry he is and how he’s doing his best as the mascot. This moment is so short but it’s honestly jam-packed with a whole heap of characterization.

His need to apologize for things clearly not his fault - especially when it feels like he messes up the job he was given despite doing the best he can (the phrase “it’s not about you” takes a new meaning when this is one of the lessons to be learned from that - that he is not always solely responsible for things going wrong), his need to save face and make a connection with an older adult man in his life (something he consistently does throughout the series - he’s got a few daddy issues, always collecting potential father figures, it’s no wonder he jumps at the bit to keep rapport), and the way he sounds and looks and the words he chooses really pushes how he is just a kid (“Mr. the Dunk, I’m so sorry”).

Like I know it’s a one off moment that doesn’t truly mean much, but when put against the rest of the series it works really well with the rest of Leo’s established character and helps in solidifying later concepts as well.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rise leo #rottmnt headcanons #am I looking too much into things? almost assuredly yes #I actually appreciate how tim immediately goes ‘it’s not your fault’ as well? like he could’ve just blamed this 15/16 year old but he didn’t #but yeah this moment got to me a little mainly because it made me realize that Leo…DOES take responsibility for things a lot #he messes up a ton yeah but he says sorry at a pretty consistent rate #and y’know thinking about it #THIS IS TINFOIL HAT TERRITORY BE WARNED #he’s mentioned being betrayed by his brothers before - I wonder if it was something as simple as taking the fall for like #breaking something of Splinters or whatever #point is it wouldn’t be out of the ordinary for him to get the full blame for something only partially his fault #or not his fault at all in some cases #like in bug busters where Raph gets mad at Leo for not getting captured with them #(I understand Raph’s mindset here a ton - Raph’s the leader and he’s likely lashing out so I don’t blame the poor kid) #but this plus the moment at the beginning of the movie #where only Leo is reprimanded despite Mikey and Donnie having full autonomy to join the fun pizza stacking #make no mistake this is not at all a diss on everyone else!!! it’s just something I noticed #I think that “it’s not about you” doesn’t just pertain to being arrogant and wanting the spotlight #I think it’s also about how responsibility is meant to be shared #and like #Leo DOES mess up a lot! so he’s honestly probably used to having the blame because it is often at least somewhat warranted #he’s specifically described as being good at apologizing after all #tldr: Leo messes up a lot of the time so he is very used to blame and attention both good and bad #even when the full blame should not be solely on his shoulders

For all of those asking how the hermits view and understand deviancy, hopefully this clears it up: they don’t.

Doc, the first to “deviate,” is the one to coin the term— Doc’s model was built specifically to create out-of-the-box solutions to questions and problems, so it doesn’t take long for him to evaluate his own programming and realize android technology is capable of surpassing their written directives entirely. He brings his findings to Xisuma, thinking he may be able to offer an android’s perspective to a feature X built into their systems, to find out that X actually had no idea that his creations were capable of this at all :-)

So, uh. Based on what we know thus far: Ren clearly has no qualms with deviancy, not understanding a lick about all of this android nonsense, X is fascinated by/ecstatic over the discovery, and bdubs thinks this newfound sentience (despite not knowing anything about it) means the androids are going to rule the world (or something). so…. if that gives you any indication of how things are going, yeah DGBJDFGHK

Regarding Doc’s design, I actually had a design for him when I first started doodling stuff for the au, but this is his redesign! I figured his initial/base model would be more humanoid, and he likely experiments with his appearance later on after deviating!

#hermitcraft #dbhc #hermitcraft dbh au #xisuma #xisumavoid #docm77 #android doc #doc #art escapades #X is very smart and a responsible mod! he just… DFVJSFGBK he didn’t realize the capability of what he was making thats all #also I think it’s hilarious but x really had a moment where he’s like WOW this is great! what a wonderful discovery!’’ #only to realize 2 seconds later that the hermitcraft server is about to grow by like 8 people like. oh… wait— #LMAO #dbhc doc #dbhc xisuma #dbhc art

Man, I want shapeshifter cap SO BAD.

I want to see a Billy that really leans into the wonder of the world, the million paths a child could take in their life.

I want to see a Billy that wants to try everything, at least once.

A Billy that looks at all the people who spit at him, deride him, pity him, dismiss him, ignore him, because he has no future, no prospects, a child in the gutter and say no. I'm going to grow up to be whoever I want to be.

And a captain marvel that says you're going to be amazing.

Billy taking the premise of captain marvels form - his ideal self, a blank slate for Billy to paint his bright colours, the person he wants to be deep inside - and dialling that freedom up to eleven.

A dancer, a dinosaur, a train conductor, a tiger, an ice cream maker, a butterfly, an astronaut, a shark, a college student, a Tamaranean, a mouse, a scuba diver, an elephant, a doctor, a moose, a race car driver, a dog.

A child wanting to see the world.

If you want to find captain marvel, well first you've got to try his comm, probably a couple times.

Then you've got to go to fawcett, hope he's there and not saving the yetis from a salamander invasion in a different dimension.

You've got to ask around, because it often goes by word of mouth here, no matter what technology you bring. Don't worry, it'll spread very quickly, but if you're in a hurry you can find his commemorative statue and leave an offering. No one knows if it really works, but it's a good way to pass the time and feel productive.

Soon, a face will peel out of the crowd. It's always familiar, but it's never the same one.

Wait for the flash of lightning in a cloudless sky.

And then you will find captain marvel.

#dc comics #captain marvel #dc captain marvel #billy batson #I really want to see tawny introducing Billy to the wonders of a highly malleable form #He's a kid! He's dreaming and imagining! He's got a thousand lives ahead of him! #Also just the image of the jl hunting down cap for smth and coming to a dance studio #And seeing this person who does not have caps body but is indubitably cap look up in surprise #Like he's a young man just out of teenage hood with a slim and lithe dancers build. Red male leotard with the lightning bolt on #Billy at this point is like 11 but as long as they never connect his human form to all these other immortal ones he's not too bothered #Billy getting into many places with the power of free trials/scholarships/sheer 'look like you belong there' energy #I think he'd have fun being a train conductor #Bringing his friends and trusted people with him sometimes for cover stories (like uncle dudley) #Heck I think he brought Shazam along on a couple adventures in the earliest comics lmao #But tawny is there 40% of the time being the adult (tiger) supervision #Not that he really needs to be. Billy is responsible and mature! Just... A trouble magnet lol #But someone has to show this kid the tricks of the shape-shifting trade! #shazam

me asking myself if callum would torture someone for information if rayla or ezran's lives were on the line

#tdp #snake boi callum #mine #memes #text post #post of all time. to me #tag ramble #personal fave #cause i really do love this gif #thinking about this bc i'm writing a scene where my OC protag does torture someone and #she's generally more extreme than callum is in general #and i was like 'would he do something like this?' #and not in the same manner (the one she picks is particularly cruel) #but my immediate response was 'no! callum would Never torture someone' #then my brain whispered 'for ezra tho?' and it was like #s i g h s . y e a h #rayla would threaten someone with her knives (hi terry <3) but i do wonder how much she'd actually hurt them #she'd hurt them at least a lil tho #ezran would be staunchly opposed bc he is a Good King lmao

Insane how many social cues humans have and you're supposed to know them all without being told

#and how they varies in different cultures #people and their funny complicated social structures are interesting to observe but not when you're in the situations #a group of people that fit together is a wonder to me because people are so so different #there are so many hidden rules they know but don't talk about and they just. know how the water flow and go along with it #and most of the time people seem to know how to do that so naturally #truly amazing when you think about it #meanwhile I think it's one of the most difficult thing to deal with #a single gesture or sentence could mean a lot of things and there are endless ways to response to it #I never meant to be offensive or unpleasant but then before I knew it I already did something wrong asfgjk #it's not their fault they misunderstood because I didn't get the hint. I just wish people tell me things directly sometimes #I study people like a bug but I'm also. a bug #delete later

laying in bed thinking about how Wukong is a people pleaser and this part of him gets frequently overlooked due to the focus on his hot-headedness/impulsivity

#Monkie Kid #lego monkie kid #tagging LMK cause i do think it uses this part of him #to add in events while still having him remain in Character #like of course Azure and the others convinced him to not be afraid and take on heaven #before heaven's army could arrive on his doorstep and force him to fight like in the books #like. he got kicked out of school because the other students encouraged him to show off #this is one hundred percent in character for him #if he got a single compliment he'd go along with whatever that person said when he was young #which is also part of how the Gold Star of Venus convinced him to get a job in Heaven #which Wukong was originally uninterested in #the fight against heaven + the mountain jaded him which made him more easily angered #(yknow. like a reasonable response to trauma) #but EVEN STILL during the Journey HE'S STILL A PEOPLE PLEASER #and then by the time of LMK he's mellowed out more which MAKES SENSE. #i could do a whole entire more formally written analysis about this but this is what i've got #brain cannot brain any more than this #anyways obligatory my opinions are my own and i respect anyone who disagrees with me tag #anyone who has another opinion is wonderful and valid but these are my thoughts

I wonder how Halsin feels about Arabella being at camp. That man must be feeling so many different levels of guilt it is unreal.

#halsin #bg3 #baldurs gate 3 #arabella #halsin silverbough #like okay he would have known arabella and her parents before he left for the camp #and then he leaves and korga tries to seal the Grove so Arabella tries to steal the idol #and then Korga threatens her #Arabella ends up with powers from that okay not overly bad #but then her and her parents leave for the shadowlands #which he feels responsible for #and they die and Arabella is left alone in those lands with new fledging powers she hasn't learnt to manage yet #like she's just another reminder of failures to him #like personally i don't think he did but to him he failed her and her parents more than once #like no wonder you are all the way on the other side of camp hiding from Withers #fml really fucked up spelling of kagha awh well

[jaegerbroshoe]

Okay but like Sevika waiting for Silco in his office after her last fight with Vi? Not knowing he’s never gonna show up because he’s dead? 😭

#arcane #sevika #silco #my opinion #the camera even pans to his empty chair #hits me right in the feels 😔 #I wonder what her reaction to his death will be #she already had issues with jinx so I wonder if this will turn her completely against her #cause she knew how much jinx meant to silco so her being responsible for his death would probably really upset her #also given the whole loyalty thing; she did choose to stick with silco till the end #cause really she was willing to keep her trust in him even though he was slipping because of paternity just like vander #anyways my point is I think his death will affect her #unlike vander’s #probably cause she was actually involved with silco for years #vander kinda just imposed his own decisions on the lanes #so she wasn’t really involved with him

50. Writer's preference - "And what if it is not you?"

The barb stung and Arthur turned away as quickly as if she had struck him.

These walks had become something of a tradition between the Prince and former Princess over the rolling weeks. With the out of doors near unpassable, Arthur's mornings had shifted to a shorter indoor practice before dawn, followed by a brief repast and then a stroll through the Orangery with the Lady Aria. Though they still argued as often as they didn't, there was something free and flowing in these conversations -- a strange sense that no subject was off limits...And that every single one was somehow taboo. It was perhaps true that they had each been raised as royalty, but it seemed their worlds could not have been more different.

Today, the subject had fallen to that all-encompassing theme of his life, the most pressing topic in the empire, and the one least likely ever to be openly addressed: Roderick's line of succession. It was an ache in his gut, this, a hill he had run up all his childhood only to find a sheer rockface confronting him. Now, scrambling for footholds in the brutal cliffside, it was a race to the top against those he loved most -- a climb now far too high to risk the drop. It was success or the death of all meaning. But what was he to do? Throw his siblings from the sides? They too held on by meager fingertips and he could not bear to think of them dashed against the teeth of the unforgiving stone so far below.

Arthur's jaw clenched. He kept her pace, but he no longer looked at her as she spoke; heard her only as if from a great distance. What was there to say? Yet, her last words burned, searing like vinegar in his cuts, and he turned sharply towards her, a rush sounding in his head.

"What? You favor someone else?" he demanded, all effort at bluster or calm stripped away. Surprise seemed to register in his face and, pressing his eyes shut, he shook his head, realizing she meant this only as rhetoric and, with a look of defeat, he sighed; shook his head. "How should I know? It would be the end for me."

He didn't look at her, now, gaze straying upwards towards the gently nodding trees, branches heavy and sagging with fruit. He thought of the tart-sweet of them, tawny and opening with a kind of crack. Fibrous chambers of juice attended the tiny seeds at the center and this, then, was life. Even trees limned their children with sweet cushions against the harsh reality of the world around them. When he laughed, it was a bitter sound.

Sighing, Arthur shook his head. "Aria, I--" but he stopped. He'd not said her name so baldly before and he gestured, helpless, voice trapped within his throat.

Her eyes were dark: not mere chocolate, but something else as if the sea had leaked into them and tossed against stormy shores within her mind. Her face was set, but he could not read it. He searched for something written there, something designed for him to read: he wanted it. He knew the message he wished to read. A very simple message. He wanted to read it again and again, see it roiling within the storm of her eyes. But there was nothing. She was no harbor. She was, perhaps, another deathly drop.

Aria lifted her chin. "Go on."

"I don't know what will happen if my father chooses someone else any more than you do. But I do know I will be a threat to whoever is chosen, simply for having been in the running, and..."

And if it were Edmund who were selected, whom Arthur regarded as the most likely alternative, he would not expect to long outlive his father -- or even his father's choice. Enemies of the House of Calainon had a way of disappearing. Arthur was not altogether certain they even lifted a finger: they were witches, after all. Likely, all they needed do was wish for a thing, and their dark magic did the rest. Edmund might not wish him gone, perhaps...but Amira would not hesitate. He could not help but think that would make for a horrible ending, all the demons of hell rising at her command. His would be a silent end, he had no doubt, yet he knew, too, that if it were by Amira's hand, he would die howling.

If Aria had said something else, Arthur had not heard it. At last, she said: "And what if the Emperor doesn't choose? What happens to us all, then?"

Arthur stopped short, and Aria beside him. "Then it'd be war."

He walked out without another word.
