I hope that April Fool's Day 2023 is dashboard crabs again, but just with new sounds/buttons for them to touch

#Tumblr #time for crab #i can't believe it's only been 2 months #since we collectively lost our crabs #it feels like decades ago #it feels like it's already ancient lore #it WAS 2022 April Fool's right #I'm so unstuck in time

whoever edited that bsd official art to make it look like chuuya is holding onto dazai’s arm will be put on trial for irrevocably changing my brain chemistry and making me so much worse

the original and the edit in question. this artwork really makes me crave a mid to late 19th century historical au where Chuuya is a swordsman struggling with changes to his job due to the meiji restoration and with Dazai as a detective/private investigator who hires Chuuya as his bodyguard when a seemingly harmless investigation turns dangerous. they kind of hate each other (as per usual) but Chuuya needs the job and Dazai, while he proclaims to dislike chuuya, is also very smitten with chuuya’s fighting style and temper (as per usual).

#also the person who edited that bsd dead apple official art to make it look like they are holding hands will be put in jail without a trial #the red ribbon tangled around their intertwined hands 😵‍💫 #<- does that person know the impact and damage that edit did to society? #oh yeah btw I’m not sure if the clothes fit mid - late 19th century but those decades make for a cool setting #bungo stray dogs #bungou stray dogs #bsd fanart #soukoku #skk #bsd dazai #chuuya nakahara #osamu dazai #bsd chuuya #my art #bsd #I need more skk historical aus :( if I had the time and a solid story idea (more than just the vibes) I would write this #although I feel like I wouldn’t be able to do that setting justice with my current knowledge about mid to late 19th century japan #I finished this one a month ago and just didn’t post it because there was stuff that I wasn’t happy with (finally managed to fix them lol)

so REVENGE, HUH? or justice, if that makes you feel better. it tastes the same when cooked just right. 'I REALLY WANTED A BROTHER.' such a shame to burn a bridge you so desperately wanted to keep, especially when it wasnt even you who started the fire. especially when you hope that not a single fragment of that bridge ever washes ashore.[MAY IT ROT FAR FROM MY SIGHTS] an unfortunate loss! atleast he has his friends.

you say machete has to be closeted then why's he always wearing them little heels

Maybe he thinks he's a tiny bit nicer looking in them.

#no in fact he's just a little ahead of the curve let me try to explain #again I'm not a historian I'm just sharing what I've read I might be misremembering stuff so don't quote me on this #high heels became extremely fashionable in the early 1600's probably just a few decades after Machete's time #and they were originally worn by men #because they were inspired by Persian riding boots #if your shoes had heels you'd have easier time keeping your feet in the stirrups (think of cowboy boots) #Europeans saw them thought they looked snazzy and they became wildly popular in noble circles fairly quickly #for some hundred years or so high heels were the epitome of class wealth power and status and they were essentially genderless #remember that concepts of masculinity and femininity are fluid and change over time #things that were seen as manly a few centuries ago may seem downright effeminate to a modern viewer #it's all matter of perspective neither is objectively more correct than the other #they started to separate into men's heels and women's heels around mid 1700's iirc but the changes weren't massive even then #and only truly went out of vogue when the French Revolution hit in 1789 #and people all across the continent were suddenly put off by everything that reminded them #of the frivolousness and extravagance of royalty and aristicracy #so in his canon timeline I don't think people are looking at him and going “hmmm that's pretty gay” #because heels hadn't become gendered yet #maybe he likes how they accentuate his already tiny paws and make his legs look even longer than they are #he's interested in fashion or at least likes to dress nicely in high quality garments #he tries very hard to look his best despite never really feeling comfortable in his skin #he was a real shrimp as a kid and even though he eventually grew up to be a beanpole he might still find the extra height appealing #no one's going to look down on him ever again #I admit the way I draw them is a lot more modern than the true historical style at the time but not outrageously so #artistic freedom and all that in the end I'm not aiming for 100% accuracy #modern au Machete has no excuses though he's just a little bit fruity #if the guy feels empowered by wearing little clip cloppers let him #answered #anonymous #Machete

prompted by a baffling conversation with one of my friends + overall trends with events like big bangs. apparently i am deeply underestimating the amount of, like, actual consumption crossover between fanartists and fanwriters. i've been operating under the assumption that the majority of fanartists don't read fanfic and that fanfic is a relatively niche thing mostly shared between fanwriters with a few outlier exceptions. like, that the "communities" or w/e are relatively separate??

this is possibly because i've been out of "fandom" for a few years (or bc im not on twitter/insta where the artists hang out), but i feel like most of my friends are other fanwriters and most of the people who actively engage with fanfic on tumblr/ao3 are also fanwriters (and vice-versa with fanartists gravitating to each other). however. my friend disagrees? neither of us are actually artists tho so i'm putting the question out to the crowd. (more thoughts) ->

side note: i didn't include an option for being BOTH a fanartist/fanwriter because 1) you're like rare and exotic birds to me 2) i'm trying to figure out who falls into which category based on what community you "identify" with the most. if you write the occasional fanfic but you mostly think about/create fanart, you're a fanartist; if you mostly write fanfic but every now and then will think about/make some art, you're a fanwriter. the group you're more likely to engage with. that kinda thing.

side note 2: you will see i have included an option for fanwriters who don't/rarely read fanfic. i know you exist because that is my category. i read fanfic but do so rarely these days. i'm selective because i dont have a lot of time on my hands. this is possibly another reason why i feel like engagement between fanwriters is so high, because if i'm going to engage with a fanfic i'm gonna put my whole ass into it since that's the kind of engagement that makes me happiest from a writer's perspective.

for reference, when i say "engagement" i'm talking about leaving kudos, comments on ao3, asks/comments on tumblr, tags on reblogs... that kinda thing.

with all of this in mind, this could literally just be because fanfic writers are more willing to engage with other writers bc of their own shared hobby and/or because fanfic writers know what kind of engagement theyd prefer on their own fics and act accordingly--and non-writer/artists are just more willing to engage in general because that's the primary way you participate in fan communities. on the flip side, fanartists might just straight up be a really quiet bunch... possibly because your thing (affectionate) is "visual" more than "verbal" (if that makes sense).

basically... this is exactly what i'd like to know LOL.

#this is mostly abt one piece because i DEFINITELY feel like there was WAY more crossover between artist/writers reading fanfic in homestuck #but that was also literally a decade ago & i feel like theres been a HUGE shift in how people see/are willing to engage w fanfic these days #THIS ISN'T SHADE OR ANYTHING I'M GENUINELY SO CURIOUS #i found out some people i assumed didnt read fanfic at all actually DO and i was BAFFLED #the librarian urge to do research create categories and make lists #spiders loopey is an outlier and should not be counted lfasjlhlhsdfsdhfkjs (kidding ily) #gyro.txt

bitches and hoes who claim that danger days sucks and is a huge downgrade from the quality of the black parade are just afraid to have fun and wear colorful clothing once in a while

#feeling very vulgar towards danger days haters lately #not that this is as cool a take to have in the 2020s as it was a decade ago #i'm not saying the black parade is not mcr's best album---there is no contest as to what is mcr's best album don't kid yourself #the black parade and american idiot are THE political/cultural concept rock albums of the 2000s #but dont act like oh how DARE mcr read some comics and watch some anime and have fun with their music #danger days is also totally awesome and has a lot to say frankly #if my velocity starts to make you sweat then just don't let go 🙄 #mcr #emo #my chemical romance #danger days #2000s #shut up kaily

throwback to that time my art peaked at age 17/18 and then i proceeded to never draw anything like it again

#i mean i feel like i could definitely do better because that was nearly a decade ago #but i don't have the patience man #i don't even know how i managed to sit thru the entirety of that #tbf i think i burnt myself out on realism after that LMAO #apollo possessed me that one time ig #realism painting #aaron paul #breaking bad #throwback #old art

the thing that makes me the craziest abt s15 of rvb is that they wrote the worlds most traumatizing scenario for carolina and then completely disregarded it. like s13 makes it EXTREMELY clear that one of her worst fears is losing her brother and then IT HAPPENS and then like six months later a guy who looks just a little bit too much like him tries to fucking murder Her Specifically. but nooooo s15 is about her overcoming her freelancer trauma for some reason like ???? that woman is in MOURNING why would she be tackling her decades old trauma now. while a guy with her dead brothers face is trying to kill her. can anybody hear me.

#like I feel insane. that’s like the most fucked up scenario to put carolina in and they didn’t even notice they were just like um. #dead boyfriend from over a decade ago. isn’t that sad. HER BROTHER JUST DIED???? #does this even make sense. im out of my insomnia medication. #rvb #red vs blue #agent carolina #babble bee

Thor: I think I just… realized something. I had a bad childhood. Loki: Yes, I know Thor: What?! What do you mean you know?! Loki: Thor, I was literally there

#it takes Thor crying over his hammer for the 13th time in a day to realize this #Thor not really feeling anything @ Odin's death and having to work through how he feels about that #bc he recognized he was growing detached to Odin and didn't want anything to do with him #but that was still his father and he thinks he should have to process that he's gone now but instead of feeling bad he feels better #etc. #VS Loki who worked all this out about Odin and Frigga being bad parents like at least a decade ago but IS still mourning them #etc. etc.

Succession | S04E06

#Gerri Kellman #Roman Roy #do you understand -- they decided this is how it had to be shot #they could've done a close up of Shiv's face to show us she suspects them if that was the focus #but instead we got this lovely little nugget of Roman bittersweet STILL smitten gaze on Gerri #you know this reminds me of an ooooold Drarry fic I read decades ago #where Narcissa ends up with Blaise #and Narcissa says to Draco that you can have many loves in your lifetime #but you only have ONE great love in your entire life #and Draco is all like please! so Blaise is your great love? #and Narcissa (after being cool and patient with Draco throughout the fic) is angry #and tells him SHE is Blaise's great love #because her great love was Lucius #and this is the dynamic I feel about Roman and Gerri #I love that he is absolutely utterly head over heels smitten #Gerri has hung the moon for him #sigh. I miss them so much #my gifs #Succession

Me: Okay, brain, that last time was depressing as fuck, but I guess that's what I get for picking such a depressing scene as the basis. How about we come up with some headcanons about Zevran and the Warden, mmm?

Brain: Zevran probably had a nightmare where the Warden was in Rinna's place at least once.

Me:

#what did I say about not letting me cook? #I feel like this is something every zevranmancer thought about at some point but it's been stewing my head ever since I played a decade ago #dragon age #dragon age origins #zevran arainai #zevran x warden
