Does anyone have any fancasts for the Nevermoor movie that they'll always stand by?

I throw various actors at the wall for Squall because I have no clue about him and welcome a surprise, but I genuinely can't think of anyone but Domhnall Gleeson being a perfect fit for Jupiter

#nevermoor #nevermoor movie #yeah I have no clue if he can sing. but idc. he can learn. #just sometimes i'll see those like fancast sites and see other ppls thoughts for jupiter and i'm like...... we are not the same at all lol #jupiter and squall are def going to be known actors and I just constantly wonder who they could be..... #most if not all of my squall ideas aren't that serious #its usually just “this guy can sing and act. why not” #the fact that the movie is a musical makes it so much harder to cast...... i'm so scared of it lol #in the far future when/if casting eventually gets announced i will be following the news with both interest and horror equally #also if you ever see me misspelling domhnall gleeson's name i'm sorry. but my brain has remembered it the wrong way and I can't overwrite i

Recently started voyager and I’m on like early s1 and like wow Tuvok always bringing up that he can mind Meld with people.

He just goes I could mind meld with them, like all the time.

love that man.

(Also everytime I see him on screen I think wow he’s been married to his beautiful wife of 67 years and he has four children wow)

Tuvok thriving

#Tuvok being the first motherfucker to fall for a telepathic attack is the funniest thing ever to me....absolute F!!! HEHEHE #GET IT TOGETHER TUVOK!!!! #Everyone: Tuvok's probably fine! He's a serious and experienced Vulcan - he knows all about the mind v_v #Tuvok: (currently being mind controlled by two separate entities) Absolutely. #There's a scene where Kes is being mind controlled by blabla and Tuvok's like 'I'll go undercover to see what's up' and IMMEDIATELY gets #caught HEHEHEH H E IS....HEHEH HE's D oing his best...he's trying. It's tough out here #Anyway YEAH the guy who might never know the touch of another Vulcan again's a bit mind meld happy and YEAH...I AM gonna make that fact #angsty for my personal pleasure...guy who just wants to feel that connection with another being. Guy who only lets himself have that #in very specific (dangerous) scenarios bc he's loyal to a woman he might never meet again....I love him so damn much #Q&A #anon #thank you for sharing the love...Tuvok is WONDERFUL <3 #bee doodles #Tuvok

i don't make resolutions, but if i did

it would be to finish this fic

(and to be kind to myself for however long it takes to actually do so)

#i'm finishing it if it kills me #i know i've been writing this makeout scene for 3 weeks but baby that can't last forever #if we want to get deep and dark and serious for a second i do think a lot of my struggles to write lately have to do with engagement #and how incredibly low engagement has been on the last few things i've written #which like. is what it is. i'm not entitled to anybody's time or comments or kudos. #but when you write stuff you're proud of and it feels like it's barely getting read it's hard to keep momentum. #this isn't intended as a woe is me or whatever it's just kind of like. there. hovering. #happens enough times you start to wonder if it's you. am i just writing for the wrong fandom/ship? #(too bad if so. they're in my bones i'm writing for them and no one can stop me.) #but yeah. if you ever wonder if authors do care or notice about hits. comments. kudos. buddy i am here to tell you #not only do we care and FLOURISH we also notice when those things drop off and readers vanish #and it is a giant bummer. and sometimes makes us wildly paranoid about why that might have happened. #so if you liked a fic today--not even one of mine. just. anybody's. share it. comment on it. #kudos at the VERY least (cuz frankly kudos is there to be an 'i got to the end and this was nice' feature. #so when you get 500 hits and only like 30 kudos? it feels like 470 of those people hated your work) #anyway. that got out of hand. lil' too raw lil' too honest. happens when you let yourself ramble at 11:30 instead of sleeping #to sum: let your local fic writer know if they've made you happy #and as we go into 2024 i am swearing to myself that this fic (and probably several others) are getting finished #come hell. high water. or dishearteningly low engagement numbers. #(and then maybe we...actually work on something original. cuz why not. new year same old me but i'll do my best.)

This Undertale quote still fucks with me, so when I saw the art meme I couldn't help myself. I love drawing things that only I have full context for, it's very fun pfft. Maybe one day this will all make sense, but for the moment you can speculate wildly haha.

(honestly I should have waited to post this after she shows up in United in Distaste (she's actually supposed to show up really soon in the Venti fic lol), but with new Remuria stuff coming out soon I couldn't help myself.)

#genshin impact #Erinnyes #egeria #fic stuff #smfwtwd #my art #dedil stuff #ever since i read the bit about Erinnyes having sea colored eyes and being a prophetess #i looked over at my poor decanonized egeria with sea colored eyes and who can see the future #and went holy shit #i love my unholy fic and canon fusions #if it isn't clear (which valid lol) the first pic is the “canon” timeline (as much as anything can be before actual canon comes in pfft) #2nd is dedil furina fic #and 3rd is united in distaste/smfwtwd #the wonders of seeing the future #and thats all I'll say hahahaahahaha #they were all fun to draw but smfwtwd had the advantage of me being able to go crazy on the foreshadowing pfft #i got to draw claude #and baby faced Cap #also it should be noted I'm still reeling from the arle video #but I had already been working on this for a hot minute #so u are getting it now

[arsonist-chicken]

Do you ever like.. get a sudden surge of love and admiration and just general happiness because of a friend, so much so that it's almost overwhelming, and you are just so, so glad you met them and hope you'll never have to let them go and get to keep them in your life forever? Yeah ❤️💖🐗🧚‍♂️🦄

#i should go to sleep #but these are the moments i wonder again if i know what a crush feels like and if i can tell the difference between periodical very strong #but platonic affection for a friend and having a tiny crush on them #oh well. in the end does it matter? #but it would still be nice to be able to tell the difference. if nothing else then to know when i actually have a crush on someone i'm not #that close to like that friend or that fond of #fucking hell god please never let me have to let them go. i don't think i've ever met someone i'm that comfortable around and around whom #it's so easy to just be myself #or rarely. maybe with two other friends i don't feel the need to hold back myself from blurting stuff out and interrupting them and #apologising and asking them to continue or just like.. say whatever comes to mind or touch electric pasture fences to see if it still stings #(it does btw but in a sensorally really nice way 10/10 would recommend) #why do amazing people often live so damn far away? last time i met a bunch of people i really got to love was almost lifesaving and #definitely mental health saving. we used to talk every day and now i barely know what any of them are up to :( covid really fucked us over #with everyone just trying to survive and stay sane. we really lost touch and now it #*it's hard to get that back because we're strewn across europe and brasil and the us and everyone's an adult with responsibilities now #i miss them :( gotta try harder to rekindle that #anyway @the universe or whatever fuckers listening: if you put me in circumstances that make me lose touch with her like with them #i'll set the world on fire. she's become far too important to me to let that happen #okay as always i couldn't damn shut up in the tags alright bye bye good night whatever my cat's purring now instead of snoring #scientists of tumblr invent a teleportation machine now. i want to lie in a park and watch dogs and read side by side and remember how good #life can be #mine

[umilily]

ngl i kinda wish i were the kind of person to fall in love easily

#lily talks #thinking the thoughts #I'm completely fine being single #It's just that sometimes I wonder if I'll just always stay that way simply because basically no one makes me feel anything #I could find a partner pretty easily probably #I can tell the interest's there when go out and make an effort to meet new people #but I don't get dating in the slightest and they all make me feel little more than :| #And by the time and on the once in a blue moon occasion that anyone does #There's at least 20 reasons why nothing ever comes of it #Regardless of how successful they are in the long run sometimes I can't help but envy my friend's a little #When they just meet people and actually care for them in that way #Just because it... feels nice? #It seems like a dumb reason but yeah :/

While I'm on the subject of plotting and Doctor Who, you know who was great at plot? Steven Moffat. The man is the master of the well-constructed plot, the shorter the story, the better. A multi-series show can go off the rails as he trails off in a million different directions. A full series of a show can have its rough patches and wind up unbalanced. But an individual episode? A masterpiece you could use to teach writing courses. A 4-8 minute minisode? One of the most beautifully constructed gems you've ever seen in your life. His plots are full of intricate internal logic and drawn from character and can highlight some of the loveliest themes because they're built on such a strong framework.

I think a big reason he's so good at plot is that he's a comedy writer. Comedy is nothing but set-up and payoff. Set up a situation. Pay it off in a surprising way. And the link between those two is character. If you set up that Character A has a certain personality trait, then when they encounter a new situation, you have them act according to that personality trait, and all sorts of funny things can result. The payoff makes sense because it was set up. That's also the gift of the running gag. If you mention something in the early part of the story, you can pass over it as useless information. Or as a minor joke that's over now. But at the end of the story, that seemingly minor piece can come back and resolve the whole thing, and it works because it was set up.

A great example of joke-turned-plot is "The Girl in the Fireplace." Plot: A spaceship is linked via a portal in time to 1700s France. The Doctor wanders back and forth between the past and the future. Later on, we see that a horse from the past has also wandered through the portal, and is now on the spaceship. Haha, silly gag, horse on a spaceship, good joke. But later, the portal closes, and the Doctor's trapped on the spaceship while people in the past are going to die. If only he had something large enough to break through. Surprise! He bursts through the barrier on a horse! The same horse from the gag! The joke was the setup for a plot payoff! And there's tons of that kind of thing in his work, plot hidden in jokes and jokes secretly building plot, and lots of plots that aren't about the jokes but always follow that rule of set-up and payoff.

There's just something so satisfying about a puzzle whose pieces all fit together. About a story that's well balanced. Character's great--and he's great at them--but there's something extra special about seeing them in a masterfully constructed plot. And it's been a long time since I've come across a plot that was as satisfying as his could be.

#other other random thought of the day #adventures in writing #steven moffat #this is actually two random thoughts of the day put together #i was going to do a separate post about how sitcoms teach you plot because of set up and payoff #but it wound up weaving in here #but i'll mention in the tags since this also sparked those thoughts #that corner gas has beautifully constructed plots #absurd ones? yes #but built on character and relying on those wonderful setups and payoffs #sitcoms are plot built from character and they're ideal for a really well-constructed plot #they don't have to worry about maintaining a sense of gravitas or drama #you can just take the absurdity to its logical conclusion #which means you can get absurd farce built on air-tight logic #and you rarely get that in drama #also? #other moffat thing that sparked this post? #those series 6 minisodes are divine #two in particular #that one where he talks to amy about changing the past may be the best thing he's ever written #and the day of the doctor minisode? #i have gone on at length about its layers and i could go on longer #it condenses the usual companion intro into two minutes #two! #establishes a character and makes total sense #*while* layering in dialogue that both works in context *and* winks at all the audience expectations around the airing of the minisode #'i'm a doctor. but probably not the one you were expecting' #that is GENIUS right there people! #anyhow we got tag limits now so i'll stop

i cant believe i forgot that im a fire emblem enjoyer 🙄 i was reading some of my notifs/tags from that one post about the video game series you've played the longest and oh my god.

i would like to apologize to fire emblem for forgetting that i've played it even though it's probably one of the longest standing series in my life next to pokemon and xenoblade... 💀 (<- they have 565 hours in fire emblem, 170 in awakening, 45 for fates, 75 for sov, and 275 for three houses and perhaps a few hours from feh but we don't talk about that)

anyway. did you know i like fire emblem. and that i like reading tags. i hope you all have swag times with whatever game series makes you happy! 💙

#lizzy speaks #i wonder if i'll ever get around to emulating the other fire emblys... i do find the tellius games + fe4 to be of interest but also #im so so slow at playing through things... it's never really a priority to me anymore (sad face) #these days i feel a lil too perfectionist about playing games and 'seeing everything it has to offer' so i get kinda exhausted lmao #especially when there's a lot of text bc i. i enjoy being cognizant and interacting with the storylines and appreciating the tiny stuff #but i will never forget the joy that fire emblem has given me when i was in school..... #maybe i will revisit fire emblem by shooting beams of ryomina at it... ryomina is going to be in every video game series ive ever liked #IM BEING FOR REAL ABOUT THIS i think it'd be cool to think about ryomina as different fire emblem classes... #maybe i'll do something about that p3 x fe3h au i did nothing with :')) or not it'll just collect dust in my head #also happy mochizuki monday today i offer nothing but my love and appreciation to my fellow ryoji havers #i hav a sillie crossover im cooking though :D (has not started on said cooking) #so maybe somtime this week y'all will see whats going on in my head >:3c (hehe)

I confess, I am... kinda excited ; w ;

#sometimes i feel like all i do is just work and survive #once in a while get myself a takeout #i work so much and what for #i never buy anything it's so depressing to think about #since bookdepository closed even my occasional 'buy a book i'd never read' shenanigans stopped #i was lately contemplating buying a new pc‚ and while that's undoubtedly a treat‚ it does fall within my very strict: #'a useful electronic' category of allowed expenses #like i was wondering between ps5 / pc but again those are planned for for years now‚ and hardly can be called 'indulgence' given how #one is for work and the other is years overdue since i was waiting for it to be less expensive.. #ah‚ i babble 🙈 #i did decided i will not share this irl though #i figure‚ i want it to be my private little positive treat #without the unnecessary opinions about how a 'book is not worth that much' #i mean i agree but did you see the book #it's the sexiest book i've ever seen in my life #i am not sure if i'll go ahead and get oathbringer in a few years #but wok-wor are literally the two books i love the most #my most beloved #my light in the dark #-coughs- ok ok. #yeah. #this is the most you heard me babble here in a while -laughs- #i've had a rather rough few weeks and has not been present the way i wanted to be-- those i have not yet answered to-- i will-- soon. #buns.txt

22 isn't very much at all, I think.

#5am rambles #anyways ignore this as per usual im just thinking in a post that i'll delete soon. i just worry and writing it helps. #you ever wonder when you'll “grow up'? and then realize youre not even fully grown? #that theres still more to learn in life and that the mistakes you make are just that? mistakes? #that you are still so very very young in a world that is so very very old? #im almost 23. barely a quarter of my lifespan. im still a child in a way- my brain not fully formed. #you ever wonder how many mistakes you can make before you figure something out? #I dont know much of anything really. that's the sad part. and the adults who were supposed to help me learn... didnt. #i was failed. and now im a failure. at almost not quite 23 years old. Maybe i wont be a failure in another few years. #i still have a while to go before I die. I'm not going to waste time thinking about it. im just going to try my best. #I have time. I can learn. Grace and patience are not endless but damn if i dont try to figure things out #first step though is meds and therapy tho. we're done with the pity party. some things you just have to accept are okay #cuz my whole life i was taught that being emotional is a weakness. its pathetic and stupid to be upset or angry about anything. #any time i wanted to show i was upset or angry i was 'wrong'. i was 'selfish' and 'dramatic' #so i suppressed and pretended i was fine. that i wasnt weak and pathetic. that i was good and not an annoyance or burden. #i am not weak. i am not pathetic. i am fine i am fine i am fine you dont need to worry about the inconvenience at your door. #sometimes the shame is so much that i cant look at myself or even think i deserve help. that therapy is for people with real problems. #that i feel like ill just be told im like this for attention or dramatics. that im such a disappointment and selfish too. #ive been a “problem” my whole life to the point i dunno if i CAN be fixed. that anxiety eats me alive every day. #therapy is supposed to give you methods to cope #i dunno if it'll work though.

All the time, I hear about how there are people filtering Cersei through the lens of "poor misunderstood woobified victim who was trying her best and never actually did anything bad" and. WHERE ARE THEY?? WHERE ARE THESE PEOPLE?????

BECAUSE THIS HAS VERY MUCH NOT BEEN MY EXPERIENCE

#like I have no doubt that they exist somewhere #but I have never seen them! #90% of what I see is 'I hate her because she's a one-dimensional bitch and here are all of the horrible things I think she deserves' #I always wonder if these people are talking about me even though it would make no sense for them to even know I exist #(<-girl who notably does not often tag her cersei posts) #but. me saying 'here's where I think she was coming from' or 'sometimes she'll say something and I'll go 'yeah I get it' ' or 'there is #something very visceral and real and compelling and relatable about her' is not. me saying that she is a good person lol. #I have on several if not many occasions specifically mentioned how she is not A Good Person™ and that #I understand if her flaws make people uncomfortable. #(but I also talk about how I don't understand what makes her uniquely awful compared to other popular characters across various #franchises so I. again. DO wonder if the 'people excuse everything she did ever and think she's Good™' comments refer to me sometimes) #ANYWAY. the point is that people have sympathy for horrible actions when they come from anyone else but not from her hmmm gee I wonder why #people will try to be 'objective' and 'narratively-focused' in character evaluation unless it's her

While thinking about what Tobias would choose if he was ever met with a shinigami (aka deciding between trying to get it attached to him to gain more lifespan when/if it dies vs making it fear him rather than like him so it wouldn't be one-use-only), I realized I never once thought about Tobias dying. nor about what age he'd die at

#muse: tobias. #I'm leaning towards him using fear to get all of the use possible out of that shinigami (F + L to it if it's a shinigami like Sidoh) #bc he's not afraid to die; nor does he particularly care how much longer he has to live; so using them for his gain for an extended #period of time would definitely be the more Tobias answer and most likely the way he'd go abt it if he ever found himself in that situation #HOWEVER... that made me wonder how long Tobias would even live. usually I have a rough idea for each of my muses but for Tobias it's ??? #I can't see him dying young but I also can't see him dying old. but I also can't see him never dying so like ?! AHIDUSADHIASHDAS #I'll keep being haunted by that question til I figure it out but for now ig I'll focus on the other one instead #the only way I can imagine him picking the first over the second approach is if he REALLY needed that lifespan for one reason or another #but thanks to his efforts he's never really in a position to need it? so the only way I can see it going down like that is if #he for some reason wanted the shinigami to give its lifespan to sb else who's dear to Tobias. which is wild to even think about #but IF it were to happen that'd be the condition. and now that I consider it even in that situation he'd still use fear bc it's not HIM #that he'd want it used for; but rather the person in question...
