I just really appreciate the designs in dungeon meshi.
How marcille was created to have clothes that seem fantasical yet almost realistic, like if magic existed mages would wear those robes but also the blues make her stand out from the more natural colors of the party and the environment, because she isnt natural in a sense. Marcille is a half-elf she's a hybrid she has a longer lifespan than others, its why she stands out, she wields(weilds?) magic and how she was more talented than others, she always stood out and I'd like to think thats why she's put in blue.
Laois is the pictured in textbook example of a knight in shining armor, blonde hair, broad shoalders,and towers over the normal person. But he likely is the most strange one through technicality, he loves monsters and knows every behaviour and fact about them but will also not hesitate to strike one down. He's usually pictured being seen in a more or less negative light by his peers putting his love for monsters as a focal point of his personality is how others remember him. And another fact i wanna spit out is that he keeps himself well groomed because he hates resembling his father, a man who sort of neglected him in my knowledge of some manga panels. He looks like a normal almost background character but its his characteristics that set him apart and give him individuality.
Chucklefuck looks like a squirrel but if you shaved it bald.
Senshi is the typical wisdom old character that the party encounters that greatly help their journey. His beard and armor alongside his helmet work well and gives him a rounder silhouette which puts off a welcoming, safe vibe. His soft (maybe musty) beard also hides his formidable strength, in the adventurers bible he canonically is the strongest out of the party. I like how he kept his helmet from one of his fallen members(brothers?) and how it shaped my image of him. When the party encountered him in the first episode I really did like senshis design and i really liked how his eyes looked and how practical the gear he carried was, I liked how its obvious his muscles were from both his race and his years of daily chores. Also what happened to the golems he kept in that room, are they just walking around with veggies on their back?.

I found the 4chan thread for most of the translations so I’m just going to post all the Reigen ones here because the thread is. Uh. Yeah.

The snow was falling and yet you felt warm. You curled in closer to the heat coming off Giyuu's chest. His heart was racing as he hurried to the Wisteria House. You could feel yourself getting weaker. Your entire body felt heavy, like you were slipping out his arms.
"Giyuu..."
"Don't strain yourself, we're almost there!"
He couldn't let anything cloud his mind. The adrenaline was too high for him to notice his own injuries. He just need to get you somewhere safe, to wait out this blizzard.
"Giyuu, do you think if we met in another life, we'd have a chance?"
“Don’t talk like that (Y/N)!”
“I love you.” You weren’t sure if you said that part out loud or not. It felt good to say though. Maybe in the next life, you would have said it sooner.

If you will indulge my little English Major brain for a moment:
One of the biggest plot devices both TMA and WTNV use is Chekhov's Gun (if something is shown on screen, it must be used at least once, at some point later in the show). However, the differences in how the idea is used helps to develop the style and themes of the series.
In TMA, there are a lot of recurring elements. However, there are very few recurring props/physical events. Obviously there's the lighter, but that's one of very few items that really has staying power. The Calliope Organ and the Table are really the only two more. People recur more often, but there's still a lot of stuff where there's an entity/character we've never met before, and will not meet again.
The main usage of Chekhov's Gun in TMA is the actually the fears themselves. The types of fear (and the attempt to categorize them) is a recurring element, which leads up to not only the reveal of the fears and what they are in s2, but the entirety of s5 and the horrors of implication that come with it. The powers are the constantly recurring Chekhov's Gun that fires often, but has been set up in the trailers before anything actually started.
This helps a lot towards setting up the themes of helplessness and human fragility that we see in TMA. Humanity is diminished, passing and unrecognizable and unimportant unless they have a connection to the powers, so every person is lesser in comparison to the overarching evil that has existed from the moment Jon opened his mouth in Anglerfish.
Meanwhile, the concept is flipped in WTNV. There are very few overarching plot points (Kevin, the Gods, etc), and generally they are devoted to their own arcs in the podcast, and occasionally pop up at other times to make themselves known. However, these arcs generally only last a certain amount of time, and the evil overarching villain of the season is just that: confined to the season.
Where we see the Chekhov's Gun in WTNV is in the people and places. Everyone knows 'Perfect Carlos' or 'Steve Carlsberg' or 'John Peters, ya'know, the Farmer?', and the usage of the name conventions helps to seal the name into our memory. Other events in the background are mentioned and will most certainly appear again, as well (no, seriously. If you've never watched Night Vale before, or if you just want a pleasant surprise in your most recent watch-through, keep tabs/notes of mysteries or unanswered questions. It's a fun game). There's even a constantly repeating theme of the first episode, changing ever-so-slightly, but still the same exact story with different meanings based on where you are.
This helps to set up the idea that, the world may be insane and dangerous and scary, but humanity has power. Choices matter, people matter, and evil is a passing thing that can be overcome if we just decide to come together. It sets the tone of WTNV from the moment you hear Cecil's voice in the Pilot, but you wouldn't even notice it.

1 year ago, on September 23rd, I posted my very first Patrick Bateman fic, and that day changed my life. I had no followers, no friends, and I didn't expect my fics to get any attention at all. Patrick became my biggest inspiration and the most comforting character I could have ever dreamed of.
Despite the fact that Tumblr can be very cruel and depressing at times, after a year of being here I now have almost 2.5k followers, and I've met so many amazing people.
So I just want to thank everyone who has ever read my stories. Every like, every reblog, every comment makes me happier and motivates me to keep going. I've written over 100k words for Patrick, and I hope this is just the beginning!💗
My special thanks to my mutts who have always been there for me, I love you guys!🥰💓😍 @sleeplessphantom @lissasharp @theesirenteller @moosesquirrelrb @melis-writes @melis-writes @thvshusband @ahsxual @nervousbananacupcake @r04dk1ll-w4nn4b3 @bookwormvoyageuse @whereireid @bunnylouisegrimes @thecitysgraveyard @tres-spades-hotel @bluujaiwrites @jacktorrancekinny @ladyalexandranna @jadeslashes

Passive agreesive ship Anon asks
I'm going to say this once. If you've come to my account seeking exposure and attention, because that's obviously what you're looking for, or if your intention is to come to my inbox and create drama, because that's what that type of approach implies, I'm sorry to inform you that you've chosen the wrong account. I won't be participating.
I won't reply because it's evident that we wouldn't agree, and it's clear that someone writing an ask with such an attitude isn't seeking another point of view. Let me reiterate, if you've read one of my posts that's specifically intended for people interested in "levi x reader," and you've come to argue with me while being part of a different ship within this fandom, that's HIGHLY problematic. DON'T. I don't visit fanfics or blogs dedicated to certain ships to argue or engage in conflict because I have something called self-love and, frankly, a life of my own.
So, send as many asks as you want, in anonymous mode or whatever, I'll block you a hundred times, and I won't reply to any because that would be a waste of my precious time.
Have a lovely day,
Lucy

I love that feeling when STEM geeks chat about absolutely anything. We use random math or science lingo for absolutely anything.
"Just take an absolute value of my passion for these characters"
*Debating how to do optimization when it comes to plotting your walking route and what variables to prioritize*
On finding a career that fits really well when the one you're in isn't quite right: "you just need to start some small perturbations" "yeah perturb yourself"
Something something mean median mode
"It's like crossing the event horizon, you just get sucked into this experience and there's no escape"
Pretty niche: "Rather than be a 'T-shaped' person with depth in one area of expertise and breadth across some other areas, I was thinking why not be a person shaped like the gravitational potential of our solar system: big depth in one central area, with a 3d "T-bar" that goes out and has numerous additional divots of depth."
The classic: comparing something to superposition or wave-particle duality (have you guessed I'm a physics gal yet?)
"It's kind of like, I have the code for the task but my internal compiler just isn't running for some reason"
Please add more if you have any fun examples of using STEM lingo out of context or to communicate something only tangentially related! (I live for this stuff)

I’m telling you it’s all over for the people who doubt my skill once I go to therapy. Just you bitches wait till I figure out how to healthily deal with my issues. Right now though I could really go for some crackers and apple juice as I rot in my room and question my existence. But one day I will get my shit together and then I shall be unstoppable(meaning my mental health will finally be ok)

2 working days left before my short vacation, uhh… I'll finally have some time to work on my WIPs. Bad news is that I have insomnia…again for the 10th time in a row, but ironically during this time I'm most productive at writing lmao. Today before work me and @batemans-malewife were jamming on Spotify and DAMN, this song hits hard and gives such a heavy Patrick's vibe that now I can't stop listening to it. THE LYRICS ARE TOP NOTCH.
Tumblr media
Do you believe in heaven above Do you believe in love Don't tell a lie don't be false and untrue It all comes back to you
Open fire! On my burning heart I've never been lucky in love My defences are down A kiss or a frown I can't survive on my own
If a girl walks in and carves her name in my heart I'll turn and run away Everyday we've all been led astray It's hard to be lucky in love
It gets in your eyes It's making you cry Don't know what to do Don't know what to do You're looking for love Calling heaven above
Send me an angel Send me an angel Right now, right now
