Fun fact I used to consume a lot of Land of the Lustrous stuff.

Anyways this is one of my many Land of the Lustrous OCs, Vivianite. Mohs hardness of 1.5, dark green/blue in colour, and very old. Due to the nature of his weak composition, Vivianite can't actually do much of anything, and has had to live under very specific conditions.

Vivianite wears a tight full body uniform to hold any chipped pieces in place, and is kept in a box stuffed with loose cloth to ensure minimal damage. If he comes into contact with light, he begins to oxidize and darken, so he's kept in a windowless room with curtains over the entrance.

That's all to say he's isolated and bored. He spends much of his time inactive, but he'll jump at the opportunity for conversation if there's someone around. Certain gems visit him to chat, get guidance, or give him the recent news. A task given to some gems is to clear his room of dust, and maybe bring him some books if he's up for it.

Vivian sees himself as an older sibling/friend to many of the other gems, and as such he's very keen on providing a listening ear and giving advice where possible to those who need it. He's essentially emotional support in a can.

Other notes/details:

not all gems know Vivian exists! He's hidden away so most gems wouldn't see him unless they were actively looking for him. A lot of the older ones know about him, but the younger ones don't

Rutile is endlessly tired of having to glue him back together so often due to his softness, which is part of why he has a tighter uniform to keep all his broken pieces in place

Vivian struggles with walking, he tends to be slow and stumbly

the tanks in Vivian's room are for jellyfish. Gems who are sent to clean his room have to switch out the jellyfish too. They're there to provide a faint light source so he doesn't go completely inactive

Vivian, despite living in a box in the dark, has a lot of technical knowledge about things as a result of millennia of going through the library collection. He' a living encyclopedia and can usually offer some answers if a gem has questions on a particular subject

his internal structure is basically a lot of shards stuck together like fibers, so he does minor repairs on himself by affixing strands of his hair into empty spots. He's had his fingers repaired and replaced this way often

In the few instances where Vivian has gone outside, he has an abnormally high amount of energy as a result of his inclusions being able to work at full capacity in the light

If I remember anything else I'll add it, anyways have a good day!

#houseki no kuni #hnk #land of the lustrous #hnk fanart #hnk oc #hnk bort #not mentioned in the main post but shit man Vivianite wants to perish 😭 #he's always felt like a burden as a result of his weak body‚ if it weren't for the fact he can't walk outside #he would've thrown himself into the sea to never rise again #he'd always asked Sensei if there was a way he could get stronger‚ and that's partly why he read so much in hopes to find a cure #when he heard about Phos' body getting replaced‚ he was both distraught and excited‚ because he felt so bad for Phos #but this was a way for him to become greater‚ if only he could just figure out how to guarantee it'd work (because otherwise he'd be #a burden again as they are forced to repair him and look after him through recovery) #that's also why he likes to talk with people; he can serve and assist others that way‚ he's trying to compensate for his lacking strength #tl;dr Vivianite is horrifically weak and makes up for it with his heart and mind in order to feel less bad about not being able to do more #also (unrelated) he tends to be touchy and holds people's hands/faces/hair a lot. He does this knowing the risk and he couldn't care less #also also‚ he has weird inclusions. What makes them odd is the fact that he can move them around and concentrate them in different areas #he's stiff cause he keep most of his inclusions packed in his torso‚ not his limbs. This also ensures he doesn't lose anything #by touching something and having his fingers (inevitably) flake apart #There's more but I'll save that for later. Good day ^^

The way I get into horror is drawing something I'm really scared of. (Like the fear of spiders or clowns) I feel like if you turn your fear into art it doesn't seem so scary anymore....and since have the fear of the one ocean half of my drawings are based around water it helps somewhat to get into the horror mindset. (To me anyway!)

i would Love to do that, however my fear of spiders is like. they scare me to the point of tears <3 i Cannot look at them much less draw them <3

#because this is good advice! and i try! #but the only other things that actually scare me are like... things ive never drawn #so its Exhausting to have to learn an entire new thing yk? #and also my brain is tired in a way where the creativity is so fuckin low </3 #thinking of Anything takes concentration that i often lack #also im... not really scared by a lot? not Genuinely? #i go out alone into the pitch black woods at night to stargaze. like. lmao #the only thing i have a genuine fear of is spiders! #rambles from the bog #i mean... bogs creep me out. and i guess im scared of drowning. especially drowning in a bog. #but. eh.

You know what would be cool? If in TFP, Megatron’s flagrant use of dark energon to revive whole swaths of cybertronian battlefields (the ones on Earth from presumed 6 years ago) actually has consequences and that the Autobots couldn’t get rid of every single zombie. How cool would it be if MECH came into the story preprepared with cybertronian knowledge if THEIR inciting incident in TFP was because and aimless zombie bot wandered too close to civilisation only for it to be handled by MECH and Silas gets a free corpse to study (and reference for future use)?

Idk but if you’re gonna start your pilot by including zombie hordes as your main plot I think it would actually help theme your series around that and the shit that happens afterwards-

#megatron #tfp megatron #silas #silas tfp #leland bishop #transformers #tfp #and potentially #altered loyalties #maccadam #if you don’t kill cliff immediately and instead centre the conflict to zombie bots maybe you can have a more concentrated attack on zombies #that or the team could split and do 50% rescue and 50% investigation #which leads to suddenly being swarmed by walking dead and thus suddenly being unable to guarentee a clean sweep #if cliff doesn’t die and then gets regenerated then maybe this the bot’s first encounter with dark energon #could get optimus woozy over dark energon since arcee’s got rescuing cliff on the mind #if you have both leaders affected by dark energon (one willing one accidental) i think that would be neat #escaped zombies could go in and influence potential episodes #altered loyalties would probably have suspicions on the lack of crew on the comms station replacing masters and students #con job if the bot’s suspect runaway zombies they’d be way more inclined to get wheeljack to base as fast as possible #altered loyalties con job they might be too worried about zombies to notice makeshift posing as the now officially dead cliff #and mech would have reason to understand what pain receptors are and have ample sites to collect corpses old and new *looks at skyquake* #am i making mech more harvestmen than reaper? perhaps #having rogue zombie bot would mean rogue starscream would have more than just ‘can’t get energon’ things to worry about #i think airachnid would be so fucking fascinated by zombie bots- probably would be the one to bring it up with the other cons #to which they would then realise that zombie bots are still wandering earth and that they pose a risk to energon hotspots #aka (on earth) their own fucking energon mines and the miners that work there #a way for airachnid to get on megatron’s specific nerves and have soundwave go ‘why did you revive an entire fucking battlefield megan!?’ #less soundwave warming up to airachnid and more soundwave doubting megatron

I'm listening to the Red Dragon audiobook, and the one thing I take issue with is that the narrator gives every other southerner an accent, but not Will Graham. None of the adaptations give him an accent. The man grew up poor in rural Louisiana and spent the first part of his career in New Orleans! He's gonna have some sort of accent!

He can be brilliant profiler that Hannibal is interested in or in love with and be a southerner with a southern accent, I promise!

#LetWillBeSouthern2023 #I know in the beginning of the book it says Will has a tendency to mimic other people's speech patterns in conversation #I do the same thing but it doesn't erase your accent or account for this lack of accent when he's alone or thinking #I don't think it's intentional in all the adaptations but I do think it's the underlying bias in media #that southern accents denote being poor uneducated or stupid #which is of course ridiculous and needs to be challenged #and answer me this dear reader; #would it not have been all the more entertaining to watch Hannibal and Will interact if Will was accented? #Will drawling out verbal parries to Hannibal in his posh Lithuanian accent #And the parallel of Will sounding different than all of his colleagues further marking him as an outsider #a difference that only gets starker when he's scared or impaired or deep in concentration #(Hannibal also is marked this way but his accent garners more respect or regard than Will's) #(the first impression of Will as a hick being added to the list of reasons why some of his colleagues dismiss him initially) #Also also! In the book Will comments that because he grew up poor he has a 'half-buried grudge' against the wealthy #and that resentment could certainly be used as a factor in his initial distrust of Hannibal #I'm just saying there's a ton that can be done with this and all the adaptations miss the opportunity! #Sword speaks #Will Graham #Hannibal #Hannibal Lector #Red Dragon

Bought a boxset of a trilogy of books by an author I have never read, because I was too tired to figure out which was the first in the series. Oh well, at least I bought it from a local bookshop and Jeff Bezos isn't getting any of my money.

#three chonky physical novels #where are you gonna shelve those‚ genius? #also the lack of will to find out the title of the first novel #does not bode well for your ability to sustain concentration over several thousand pages of epic fantasy

[puretopia]

hello I’m still here kinda!! do you ever just feel really uninspired and exhausted to pick up and play literally anythingggg bc that’s me recently. anyways I have a week off work soon at the end of the month, so with that I’ll hopefully have some more energy to get into playing something again! 🫶

#just felt so ugh recently #lack of energy and lack of concentration to play and do anything #;-; still stalking everyone’s posts tho hello

[reblogged-writing-stuff]

One day I think I might not have adhd and just conditioned myself into thinking I have it so I have an excuse to be lazy just like my mom says.

Then I spend 6 hours total writing 2000 words and watching a film and doing a bit of everything else. No, I'm not doing it consistently in that order. No, I'm not like writing for half an hour then watch a bit of a film with a bit of distraction.

No - I'm writing for a minute or two, then I unpause a film, watch it for a minute or two maybe even less then a minute. Then unable to concentrate on neither of those things I go google something or refresh my tumblr page or stare at my phone. It takes me 2 to 5 minutes, then I repeat the cycle again. Sometimes I change the order of those thing, sometimes it's a little bit more then a couple of minutes but never more then 7-10.

It's almost 3 a.m. It's been 6 hours. I need to finish writing the bit I have in my head. I want to finish the goddamn film - I've been watching bloody thing since 8 p.m. and there's still 6 or 7 minutes left. I'm exhausted. Instead of doing either of these things I'm writing a tumblr post.

Fuck this thing.

#creative writing #adhd writer #adhd problems #writers on tumblr #adhd probably #undiagnosed adhd #sometimes you think maybe it's all in my head I just having problems with concentrating because of lack of sleep #or because of stress or depression #but then this shit happens #and you're like #there is no way normal people deal with something like this #it's just too insane

[likesdoodling]

Kind of hit a high with 'wow I'm better at drawing than I thought I was!' then came back down with a vengeance.

#doodling #lack of inspiration #doodles #burnout #stress #yeye #sleep deprivation #woohoo #the stuff i was reading was too interesting! #to actually go to sleep #and once you're hyped on caffeine.. #its kinda hard to concentrate #now that i think about it #i actually did have more caffeine than usual today... #huh #maybe thats the problem #eh. whatever #i made this #so theres that i guess #sleep deprivation is #amazing #for morbid inspiration #hehe #HEH #HEhHAHHEHAHBWAhHAHAH #i should sleep.

[muiromem]

Someone make my BRAIN FUNCTION!!!

I have a fanfic to write dammit!!! Why is it so hard???

#UUUUUGH #it doesn't help that my chronic pain is acting up #and I haven't been sleeping great #which RUINS my ability to concentrate #on anything basically #also the lack of Tom in this chapter #is making it hard for my brain rot to FOCUS #I love Harry and B'Elanna but goddammit #I just wanna constantly rotate Tom in the microwave of my mind #so it's a bit hard when he's not the focus of a whole chapter :/

[foryouthegays]

so im a ta and look. i mean this in the most respectful tone possible but can someone please help me w teaching kids w adhd? as someone who is very autistic and most likely not at all adhd trying to teach/help a few of the kids is. very hard. im having the most trouble with focusing and staying on track which makes a lot of sense. this is about one specific person btw, shes wonderful and i love working with her but we will spend an entire class on one (1) aspect of the lesson in order to actually get it and im completely happy doing that, but i dont want her falling behind bc she learns at a different pace

but. anyway. if theres anyone following me whos a teacher or a student w adhd or something. yeah. gimme tips please

#ive figured out that colors really help and so do actual like .models #and ive been getting her dotted paper instead of graph paper bc its easier to see and i think thats been helping #but today we spent the entire class going over circle vocabulary #and. look. its important because thats what theyre gonna be working on #but. please #we gotta work on other shapes #its also hard bc of covid so school skills are .lacking in. everyone #but yeah. lmk if any of yall have tips for keeping her on track/figuring out ways to make the learning a bit easier #to be clear i do love working with her she genuinely wants to learn and do the math but its really hard for her to concentrate and i have #other kids i gotta help

[punkalope]

wanting to interact with my local community more since ive lived here for 4 years now (i moved and then covid happened + some stuff that really scared me out of socializing bc of my parents) but its so...not what id expect im unsure where to start?

being disabled (i think?) sucks too because sometimes if the weather isnt right just putting on specific clothes is so exhausting, or other days my ankles will be bad and im limping in public and im embarrassed. being independent is kinda scary as hell when my dad has freaked me out but im going to try to use the bus more too and all. especially if i start college classes this fall (hoping)

but even besides that the culture here is so...party focused, i guess? which isnt a bad thing but i feel like i dont belong lmao. and im too autistic and scared of covid to go to concerts and stuff. and my schedule and health arent reliable enough to do volunteer work....

#burrow.html #i know my health is also maybe because of lack of exercise but oh my god walking is so...exhausting sometimes too... #im capable of pushing thru the exhaustion but if i have to concentrate on smth the fog is too much so i feel like so many things are #just inaccessible to me? but i could be over reacting tbh so. #i get so tired so easily i feel so bad !!!!!! and i dont kno where things are or what to do so i get tired x10 more easy here ahh! #i feel so out of place in this city! #sorry kinda venty

[myatlantispoets]

The fun part abt living with depression is that it can always come back in full force and it usually happens when you need your ability to function as a human being the most

#i can feel myself getting bad again. the low appetite the fatigue the lack of concentration #the headaches #this is gonna be a fun conversation with my psychiatrist #personal #venting
