#it's fun to consider different options

[canisalbus]

I could see modern!machete being an art conservator, with a focus on 16th century religious art. If he works at a museum, he’d probably be closer to those kinds of paintings, but if he’s a private business, he’d definitely have the money for Armani and Loubotins

Awh, that sounds lovely actually. I've considered something related to museums and history before, but I don't think anyone has brought up art conservator, that does seem like something he'd enjoy. He has the meticulousness, precision and carefulness you need for the job.

#I've figured he appreciates admires and understands arts well #but I've deliberately avoided giving him any creative or artistic skills #as a conservator you work closely with priceless artworks but your objective is to revitalize the piece without leaving any personal touches #renaissance Machete develops tremors and gets shaky from stress and exhaustion but the modern version is doing better health-wise #so he might not #answered #anonymous #sorry I'm going in circles and rambling aimlessly about this without reaching a conclusion #it's fun to consider different options

i think the thing for me about edizzy is the potential of it all- we know they have history together, but we don't know what it is, how long it went on for, what it meant for them. there's endless possibilities there to explore, and any of them could be real! or not! but theres so much to explore with them and its so fun to imagine all the what-if's and could-have-beens of their relationship

#like yes!!! i love stizzy and steddyhands and rizzy and ouizzy and ALL the izzy ships! #but it always comes back to edizzy for me simply because of the ties that bind them #we see all the other relationships grow in canon and build off of that #but we KNOW theres more to edizzy that we simply dont know about and imagining all their possible pasts is so interesting to me #how did we get to where we are now? where can we go in the future? what underlies their relationship that we simply dont know? #were they married? unrequited love? mutual pining? never considered it until it was too late? divorced a dozen times over? #have they known each other since they were kids? did they meet on Hornigold's ship? did they meet after ed became blackbeard? #does izzy have a navy past? is that how they met? a brothel? the streets? a prison? a bar? #they could literally be anything! #maybe theyve only known each other two years! maybe its twenty! #we literally do not know and the possibilities are there and it CONSUMES me #i cant settle on one favourite reality for them because i just have so much fun messing around with all the different options #what will they be this week? #nyxtalks #ofmd #our flag means death #izzy hands #israel hands #edward teach #edizzy #blackhands #and im so sad canon didn't take any opportunities to explore it in s2 #like we got a few hints that they are Something; but not even a passing comment about who they really were to each other #nothing!! #im not a writer so i couldn't tell u how to do it well but. a passing comment! anything! #a moment explaining izzys loyalty to ed after everything; talking to lucius about complicated relationship and moving on; to ed face when #hes confessing or after his leg; to Ned or to Zheng or Ricky or Hornigold or anyone! anything! Ed to Fang in the boat!! #im just surprised that wasnt a path they at least tried to explore; given how much of s2 was focused around them to some degree

hey. if you haven't read the A Chorus of Dragons series by Jenn Lyons (highly recommended for high/hard fantasy lovers)

Some of the wording is intentionally a tad misrepresentative simply because its funnier that way, but it's still accurate.

please read a chorus of dragons by jenn lyons. please. i promise I've spoiled like nothing, there's so much context and other happenings missing. i am begging

#a chorus of dragons #polls #started compiling this around book 2 in my reread because of a single comment #because I thought it would be fun #i will say i considered including nothing made up and being like SIKE this ALL happens the series is WILD #but no. one is genuinely fabricated #it feels obvious to me but. that's probably because I made it up myself #mutuals please #it tried to be so careful about it #so that different options wouldn't give each other away #which meant I had to leave out other things I'd have loved to include #anyway #vote in my poll boy

#neutral is like. shrug. if you have nothing better to do / would put it on as background noise. or plain dont care either way! #but yeah im... poking streaming with a stick rn #im doing some research... based on the results of this poll ill make another wondering about preferred platforms #cause ive done streaming before. Technically #when i was active on instagram and they rolled out the live option id sometimes do a lil art stream #on my phone and a tripod #But! this time around id actually go get a mic and use a legit platform #probably either twitch or picarto... maybe youtube... but who knows! #who knows if i'll follow through with this at all! id like to! i remember enjoying streams! #it sounds like fun! #and i think it would be cool to show the Process - as slapdash as it is #absolutely unprompted #there are a lot of different things i could do on streams i think #could do streams were i focus on one project. request streams. commish streams. just chill draw session streams #streams where we all try something new Together... working on skills! #something to consider!

they need to start giving the shitty options to shiver im so tired of her winning

#splatoon #bc i know good and well if she got team fame and not frye love wouldve won like it did the other 2 times #i dont even get why people like her shes so BORING #boring personality boring design boring boss fight boring dialogue #i think this is the result of fests being regional #cause yeah 3 teams on its own can work well IF THEY WERE KEPT REGIONAL #cause now nintendo has to come up with themes with 3 options that resonate with the whole world #which is hard!! cause cultural differences and all that stuff and also just trying to make a theme that isnt boring #which is how we get shit like spicy v sweet v sour and gear v grub v fun #and thats sad considering a good amount of peoples first time playing a fest will be in splat3 #but whatever. thats just my two cents. this fest pretty much ruined the whole event for me #splatfest #money vs fame vs love

@flitwickslittlebrotha hello and happy holidays from your @aftgexchange buddy! all your prompts were super fun so it was genuinely hard to choose which one to make, but in the end i went for Andrew/Kevin slice of life, so please enjoy this little snapshot of a nice, relaxing post-game afternoon. sorry this is a little late but i hope you like it!!

#aftg #aftg exchange #andrew minyard #kevin day #kandrew #all for the game #hi this is literally my first art for this fandom so like. i hope it's good? #also my last art of the year lol #anyways as mentioned i hope you like this friend it was enormous fun to do #it's always so nice to just draw characters having a break every once in a while #especially in this fandom. the foxes always have like. minimum 5 crises going on at any given time theyve earned a rest #anyways if youre wondering who took this photo i think its renee #considering andrew (unlike kevin) possesses actual awareness of his surroundings and has already noticed the camera #she's kinda the only option where both the photo and the photographer actually survive the attempt #but of course it could be any of the foxes so if you have a different person behind the camera you can decide #also also random aside but those bruises and stuff were a super last-minute addition but i just thought about it and #theres absolutely no way that someone who spends that much time on an exy court isnt constantly covered in bruises #especially after a game #aaaanyways please excuse the rambling tags i have a bad habit of #just dumping all the little thoughts i had while drawing into the tags once im done and prob no one really cares about it but #it helps me declutter my brain after super-focusing on a single thing for a while #hope this wasnt too distracting and once again: happy holidays!!!

the flash should have ended with barry quitting his job at ccpd to become a stay-at-home husband and that's on that

#the fun part is it genuinely could have ended like that. i have no idea. still haven't watched it #NOBODY TELL ME BTW #THAT IS NOT ME ASKING FOR SPOILERS. I'LL GET TO IT #but honestly it's the only thing that makes sense. i have genuine reasons for this #namely: how the fuck is iris. an incredible but ordinary non-speedster woman. meant to look after a baby speedster #ordinary babies are already making it their life's mission to die. eating shit they shouldn't. rolling over and suffocating. #idk i don't know about kids but i know babies are breakable and will roll off tables and god knows what else #now imagine you have a toddler and she can literally move at hundreds of miles per hour #how the fuck was iris meant to cope? #i still maintain that when they did the 'she put a power dampener in nora' plot it should have been like. not a control thing #but also yeah. literally a control thing because HOW THE FUCK ELSE WAS SHE MEANT TO LOOK AFTER HER BABY #if barry is gone and she's a single mother. assuming no other speedsters are around to help her. what the fuck else was she meant to do? #of course she had to suppress her powers because how can you stop your toddler running into traffic if she can run 1000 times faster than u #how do you keep her in her crib at night if she can phase through the bars? #in that sense. yeah it's fucked up. but you can understand it. you can empathize. what other options did she have? #so yeah stay-at-home dad barry is the only thing that makes sense for genuine safety reasons #he is quite literally the only one who can keep up with the kids #they dropped the ball on nora is all i'm saying. again. fic that lives in my head where original nora's death actually means something #and we get a new nora who is ACTUALLY a different person. as she would be considering her whole upbringing was different #and she has to somehow live up to the memory of a version of her that was erased from time #part of barry and iris can't accept that that specific version of their daughter is gone and it's not her #THE ANGST POTENTIALLLL #in my head she doesn't even go by nora because she's like. THAT'S NOT ME. SHE DIED. WHY CAN'T YOU ACCEPT WHO I AM AND LOVE ME FOR ME #she goes by dawn bc yeah im still kinda sad they didnt use that name #fictional characters give ur kid an original name instead of always naming them after dead ppl challenge #my fics #my meta

got tagged by @greypetrel for WIP Wednesday earlier this week so. consider this a wip whenever x'D Had to clean up a couple things before i felt ok showing my progress lolol but! I am still working on this :]

hair is very low on my priority list rn lol, and color won't come into play until i'm at least 80% done with everything else. I am mostly trying to figure out how to arrange the clothing & extras layers to make them work together properly (gonna maybe do that with hair later too to make them fit with horns better, but not rn). Also me @ all the picrews with sparse beard options: watch me

#wip whenever #my art #can you tell i had way too much fun with the facial hair and the horns jkfjksdf #and the ears too #had to hold myself back from not making more lmao #(i might tho) #still missing sections for body scars and different accessories among other things #and i am also considering splitting some of the left/right stuff like the horns for more customisability #i wanna do stuff like horn accessories too but that would be tedious and/or messy in the menu i think... #but yea! if you do try it out and notice anything wonky please tell me! #and also i am. open for suggestions 👀 #cant promise anything but i am very bad at making accessories n stuff lol so knowing what ppl might want would help! #oh or hairstyles #since i havent started those yet & there are. so many options

#kuko harai #bad ass temple #hypmic #hypnosis mic #i know the way i draw him makes it hard to put thought into tho lol #i let go of my long hair kuu dreams a long time ago when it hit me he’s particularly attached to his hairstyle #but it’s still fun to consider lol #i think it’d be equally fun if his short hair was styled differently which is why headband lol #me: *drawing his spiky stud hair band fully intending it to be a sun imagery thing* oh it’s bowsercore #there’s only one wrong answer btw and you’d have to waste time typing out each individual letter in your wrongness #when you could have simply chosen one of the clickable options instead 😌😌😌 #type the cursed and wrong answer and for every letter is how long you will be cursed 😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌😌 #vee is arting

Every time I go to get food and get told that the thing I chose ahead of time (with time-consuming and meticulous planning and consideration) isn't available, I lose one whole month off my life

#bc look okay looked up the menu onlinr days before #carefully mapped out the pros and cons of each option #considered the vibes of the situation and how fitting each option would be for the moment at hand #thought about the overarching plan for the moment and how a decision could impact that plan and the situation as a whole #and then after meticulous debate #finally made a decision #only to get there and have to make a snap decision thats completely different than what i planned?? #not fun okay #not fun #sometimes ill make a backup but a lot of times that just complicates things and leads to more indecision #so idk #anyywayyy

ouhhhg. why r we all here. jsust to suffer. every day i shuffle things around in my silly aus

weird week this week and it's not over yet but

this poll is totally legitimate (lying)

#shitpost #cutting my hair wouldn't be that big of a change. just like a trim situation #because it's gotten longer than I like in the back and I think it's funky in an unpleasant way #but anyway #i considered putting real different options #like 'cut up some clothes to make them fun' #and 'bake something' #but no. this is what you get #decide my future tumblr this isn't rigged at all

If you want the romance with another parent, you could always have his first husband be supportive but tragically pass away -- though maybe having a dead dad would distract from the dead mom trope

ooooo i think it wouldnt take away from it actually it might just be a horrible horrible tragedy that he escapes the dead mom trope but the. dad dies instead LMAO but no yeah it does take the focus away youre right.....

#i considered it and then like. in this hypothetical complete text he never Actually gets together with the new guy #because like. well it would be too fast lmao like theyre clearly Going to but it just doesnt happen in the span of the text #which might actually work because the focus isnt supposeddd to be the romance. but its offset by how much a partner dying might affect text #but then that could go into the difference of how a dead father is handled versus a dead mother......................... #but i dont think im big brained enough to talk about that LMAO #BUT!!! this is also all hypothetical so in this hypothetical world maybe i can LOL!!!!! #anon #ask #but yeah no i think. i would just need to have him. out of the picture. #i was already imagining like the mc meeting another trans guy who wants to Get pregnant and has a supportive partner #so like. its fine gahfdgbsdvghdfgb #have a nice day!! #there was also the alternative where the husband doesnt leave immediately. this is the least fun option #in that like. maybe he seems ok w it at the start but the more masculine the mc gets #the less supportive he is. until eventually they split #which is interesting but also 💀💀💀💀

[hotmess-exe]

all these erotic horror vn demos i've been perusing lately have me curious if i should ever try my hand at writing this kinda thing...

#maybe one day #idk what it'd feel like to actual write that kind of thing for others so #i'd need to gauge that first lol #but it does seem like a shit ton of fun writing an mc choosing between different flavors of stalker as RO options idkkkkk #just thoughts #i guess it would just be returning to my roots #considering how many of the dating sim vns i read as a teen were fucked up and toxic #i loved the bad ends the most i still kinda do lol
