as a previous foster child, I feel like I gotta say this. foster parents need to stop exploiting the foster children they’re taking care of. they’re not your children to post online (honestly you shouldn’t be posting your child online at all). It’s starting to become more apparent that some of these foster parents that post these children online aren’t doing it with the mindset to eventually have the biological mother take the child back (because that’s the point of foster care in my opinion, unless it’s a lost cause with the parents as it was with my siblings and mine situation) but to fill this void of not having a baby or having infertility problems. i’m sorry you’re unable to have a baby but stop relying on foster care to fill that void because that’s extremely unhealthy and can cause problems for the foster child later in life, trust me. stop fostering and get therapy.

Just finished another playthrough of Breath of the Wild. Was wondering which Zelda game to play now and, well. My bias threw me at Ocarina of Time, sos. But since I'm playing it now, there's just something I've wondered for a long time:

What would have OoT Link's life been like while in the forest had Navi been with him from the beginning? That, and their separation at the end would have been even harder...

thomas who is brass and crude and terrorises the village, but crumbles as soon as he takes it a step too far. sofia who is quiet and delicate and a shadow of her brother, until she is close to destroying herself to get what she wants. to do what is best for them. something about siblings - one is cruel for fun, and one for necessity

Good morning if you haven’t watched Renegade Nell yet then this is your sign to try it and if you have already watched please don’t spoil it for me because I’ve only watched 5 episodes but feel more than free to let me know spoiler-free if you enjoyed it because I am very much enjoying it and quite excited to continue

i should try drawing Ocobans (well. just Sammy.) again but with other species as contrast, bc i think that'd help me with emphasizing the torso length.

definitely want to draw them with a Sigurayan and Hocotatian (probably Kit and Louie) to have all the Weird Long Proportion guys together, but i think having someone with more normal proportions who's around the same height would add something . dont know who to use tho

#Rambles Into The Void #lets see. #Koppai‚ Giya‚ Ohri‚ Nijo*‚ Flukuey*‚ and Conohan all have species with pretty average proportions #*: these mfs have something else weird about them ( patagium and Hooves respectively) #so that meanssssss #Nelle‚ Don Bergman‚ Shepherd‚ Collin‚ Yonny‚ Santi‚ Chowder‚ Alpin‚ and Beaux are the options #Brittany and Charlie- despite being the basis for body types 3 and 4- are actually shorter than those body types and thus do not qualify #(their heights are closer to type 2's! which is funny bc it's based on louie- who is about the same height as type 3 and 4.) #(i'm PRETTY sure louie's actually around their height in Pik3 but . he is fucking huge in Pik4 and i will not pretend that's not hilarious) #also funnily enough despite Flukuians' proportions being fit for this none of the characters from there are tall enough to qualify either

2x21 Literati in New York is the best thing to have ever happened to me: First of all, Rory remembering that little piece of information about which park he hangs out in is too cute. Jess smiling when he recognizes her voice!!! Them smiling at eachother like the two idiots that they are clearly so happy to see eachother. Jess knowing that Rory is always hungry and that being the first thing he suggests is also such a sweet detail.

Their banter is something that I think goes unnoticed about them a lot i personally don't think any of Rory's boyfriend match her sarcasm and quick references as well as Jess.

Rory's withering stare!!!

Jess wanting to ask about Luke but not knowing how is adorable but also Jess honey it's okay to care about people!!! Rory saying she can tell Luke hello for him is also sweet.

"You are so an out of towner!" my heart they're adorable

The record store scene is too much for my fragile heart: okay first of all that record store is my dream place!! second of all they are just too much

"This was fate!"

"I think it was" how am I supposed to breath in these conditions!!!

The goodbye scene is just so good I don't even know what to say first of all Jess pointing out that Rory was acting out of character and not getting why!!! He can't understand that someone would miss him enough to do all of this!!!

"Because you didn't say goodbye."

"Oh." Aright just stab me in the heart while you're at it

Seeing those two so happy just spending time together makes me kinda sad because they could never be like this back in Stars Hollow

But hey at least we'll always have New York

so I watched renegade nell which I mostly liked. but. there's a problem of thinking critically about media because at some point you will see that a lot of underlying messages just start to disappoint you...

ok. so. the show is original and fun, even though sometimes a little on the nose, but we will accept that due to the whole family adventure vibe. it's not an adaptation of anything, which is. surprising. for a fantasy action disney show. and the main character is both very gender and also looks like a human person instead of digitally fixed beautiful protagonist, and the magic's fun — subtly done but atmospheric since it drew from actual folklore.

which is fun! and it should be a fun little show! with nobody batting an eye at Nell for presenting femme and masc in equal measure, and with a family story at the front, and with the very hot evil woman thwarting their plans. fun!

but no. why do a fun little show when you can do serious drama?

so Nell finds out about the people wrongly incarcerated — by an incredibly in-your-face sequence of little kids telling sob stories, which is fine, this is a show for a younger audience, you can have a little moralism, as a treat — and now this is a moment of finding purpose, that's what her powers are for! helping people! changing the world! fixing the injustice, not just figuring out her family situation!

which is, you know, fine, if she would actually do that. instead of, after one prison break, turn around and go on the quest to save the queen. (obviously there's still personal storyline about her sisters, which is good and fun, but different storyline). and, ok, they explain it as hey if we have another monarch now trying to take the throne, there will be war and war fucks people up — but, uh, firstly, helping to stop one attempt at a coup does not solve the actual problem&

and secondly. and more importantly: ok, you show the societal problems, the classism & sexism. you spoon-feed it more than show (oooh, evil guys sit around and say the most horrible thing ever if the peasants will have the right to vote!), but ok. it's there. and then your resolution is to, what. help the absolute monarchy? I feel like it undermines the story. just a bit!

but it's fine! the queen gives our hero her house back! the queen's a girlboss! it's all good now! there's totally not gonna be any more issues in this world, we fixed everything!

sarcasm aside, I'm just a little bit tired about stories that try to seem as they deconstruct and destroy some social issues but still can't see the way these same issues are connected to the other institutions that they support (after rewatching some of merlin bbc — the classics of we join the war with homophobia on the side of homophobia — I'm just. a little frustrated).

and it wouldn't be a problem if they focused fully on the family story. it was good! you had a good thing going!

eh.

sorry i've been checked out lately, I've been focusing a lot on studies because i got slammed with so much homework assignments

okay so I've been seriously considering participating in febuwhump for royai (because whump = royai, obv, and I've been itching to write some angst/hurt/comfort), and earlier I was screaming over the prompts because they're so royai. Also, there's one for bees (day 9), which I can totally do a scene inspired by the bee scene in xfiles (*cackles, screams, jumps for joy*), as I will never shut up about how royai and mulder/scully are coded the same.

anyway, I was freaking out about this to my husband, who has to Deal With All My Shit (™), and I was reading him the list of prompts and at day 16 (came back wrong), he goes, "'Came back wrong'? That's so fullmetal alchemist." And I was like "right?????"

The prompts are so good - "suffering in silence"? "Killing in self defense"?? "Blood stained tiles"??? "You weren't meant to be there"???? "Not allowed to die"????? Like, royai, hello??????? *flails* I'm thinking I'll likely do drabbles, between a few hundred words to max 1k, just to keep it concise and not burn out (especially because I'm hoping to do the royai big bang as well - and I'm planning to have all the prompts done for febuwhump finished before the end of january, so it won't overlap). If I did my usual 5-7k words for each day, I'd die lmao. Some self-preservation is needed.

anyway, febuwhump is likely imminent lmao. #feralroyaigoblin 🙋‍♀️

#slight rant #husband has adhd and i listen to him ramble about his own special interests plenty too thank you #and btw i've already decided to do it (this has been sitting in my drafts for a while) #riding this high of feral shipping for as long as possible (gotta keep away the depression some how lolol) #royai febuwhump2023 #nell speaks

I feel bad for waiting so long to add to these scriptscratches again so I’m just going to infodump on all four topics right now: (Vos Possession AU additions)

Moving into the Emporium:

During episodes one & two: Vos isn’t in control of himself when he enters Beacontown for the first time after returning from the Sea Temple. Romeo is ecstatic to explore this new location through Vos’ eyes, but doesn’t talk to too many residents. Instead, knowing that the Colossus is on its way, ‘Vos’ opts to take a nap in the emporium since Jack offered him a room. Vos doesn’t argue with Romeo on this one because it’s been a decade since he’s had a good rest and promptly passes out on the floor before Jack can bring him a sleeping bag. (Also, although Vos can hear Romeo’s thoughts too, he has no idea the Colossus is approaching.) Romeo splits from Vos to focus all his energy into being the Colossus. Later after a part of the shop gets wrecked, Vos wakes up in a panic and realizes he is in control of himself. Rushing out of the emporium mid-fight, he sees Jesse, Petra, Lukas, and Jack fighting the Colossus. Romeo is has to re-possess him before he can make it to Jack so he doesn’t ruin anything.

Post- episode five: Vos lives in the attic of the emporium and he and Jack have friendship lanterns. They like to activate the lanterns at the randomest points at night to wake the other one up. (more on that below)

Romeo’s Reparations:

Unlike in game where Petra argues to leave Romeo in the Terminal Zone, she instead is the more sympathetic one. Jack in turn wants to leave him there, abandoning Romeo as Romeo once abandoned so many. He didn’t get to see the cabin or the journal that Jesse and Petra found; all he knows is Romeo’s crimes against the previous admins, the people of the Underneath, and especially his friends. Because of this, Petra has to convince Jack to give him a second chance when they all return to Beacontown. Vos has mixed feelings. He wants to forgive Romeo, but is pretty wary after everything he went through so he opts to avoid the ex-admin whenever possible. (He sometimes freezes up in panic when Romeo is around.)

Jack asks Romeo about what became of the Sea Temple, but Romeo assures him that with his admin powers removed, the temple would be dormant and the entities within/around would vanish. Jack doesn’t seem convinced so Romeo offers to go himself to check. His theory was correct. The temple is essentially dead save for one peculiar oddity…

When Romeo returns from the temple, he has a gift: two linked sea lanterns. They remain dim until one is touched and both light up. (Like how friendship lanterns work.) “How is that even possible?” “Not sure really… I found them in the rubble. I figured I’d bring one back in case you wanted it, but when I picked it up, the other one lit up too. My guess is they must still be linked from being a part of the puzzle door.” (Since the door would only open if mirrored, each block got enchanted with its mirrored block to recognize the other. Does this make sense? Idk.) Jack finds this sufficient to mostly forgive Romeo and gives him props for working to make amends. ^ This scene is also fun because Jack had the initial conversation with Romeo without Vos’ knowledge as not to make his friend anxious. So when Romeo knocks on the emporium doors to deliver the lanterns, Vos accidentally opens the door and just stares for a minute before asking Nurm to get Jack. Jack of course explains the whole thing and Vos ends up forgiving Romeo, even giving him a hug.

Romeo patches a few things up in Beacontown before heading to the Underneath to try and make amends with Xara. (The people of the Underneath now live on the surface, but Xara stayed behind.)

Character Interactions:

Vos is socially anxious after having no one but himself to talk to for a decade. (During the first trip to Beacontown, Romeo hides this very well with his eager demeanor. Vos is honestly somewhat relieved to not be the one conversating.) Jack is quick to notice this and does his best to help his friend meet the residents of Beacontown. The people of Bad Luck Alley would probably find Vos interesting since he was an old friend of Jack.

Ivor is the first resident Jack introduces Vos to. After the events of season two, Jack is eager to show Vos around town and jumps at the chance to have his friend meet his idol. (Especially since Ivor settles back down in Beacontown after being a ninja.) The two are quick friends and Ivor is happy there is another alchemist in town. He also gets to explain to Vos what the Witherstorm was so that’s fun. Can’t imagine how that conversation would go. Turns out the two actually have a lot in common. (Plus, they both look old enough to remember Nether reactor cores /j)

For some reason, I feel like Nell tends to notice new arrivals in Beacontown and helps to assure them that the place is a chill area. She probably confides in Vos that she felt overwhelmed when first moving to Beacontown too, and offers to show him around. “Don’t be a stranger, okay?” The two likely have an interesting conversation after everything is over with and repairs are being made to the town.

What if Radar mentions how Jesse helped with Stampy and Stacy’s dessert booth and ‘Vos’ perks up? After eating nothing but pork chops for years, he is eager to have anything else so Jack buys him a whole cake which he attempts to eat in one sitting. /j unless…

Lluna! I already had a whole post dedicated to her so here’s that! Still haven’t decided what the adventure would be though…

New Adventures:

With his old friend back in his life, Jack is once again inspired to go adventuring again. He and Nurm usually just went exploring to map new locations and it’s been a while since he went on a real adventure. Petra still wants to take a break from Beacontown and find her life on the road so they head off together. Jack is eager to share some of his favorite locations. Jack asks Vos and Nurm to join to which Vos happily joins and Nurm instead stays behind to tend to the shop and Archie. (They return after a week or two for reasons to be added.)

Possible adventuring locations during their trip: swamp (I have a fun idea in mind with this one), woodland mansion, maybe a place Petra mentions from the displays in the emporium-

I can’t wait for them to find a pillager outpost. Jack and Petra go to take out the guards while Vos snoops around… and stumbles upon an allay locked up nearby. Seeing himself in the new mob, he frees it from the cage immediately. Not realizing how they work, he gives it a torch and just assumes it’s following him because he saved it. Vos names the allay “Callou” because obvious pun. Now whenever the trio hear about outposts, they make it a game to disrupt them. Jack and Petra take turns baiting the guards (like walking up and striking up conversations or just outright teasing the pillagers) while the other hides nearby to take them out. Vos checks for any allays or golems nearby and rescues them.

Lush cave. Lush cave. Lush cave. What more do I have to say?

(If you all have any Qs or just want me to elaborate on anything, feel free to ask!)

I'm slowly losing my mind because the longer I have to wait for the third episode of the recently released Not Dead Yet the more I want to talk to someone about it, but practically no one on here has started watching it yet AND I NEED TO SHARE THE EXCITEMENT.

Anyway, watch this official featurette and maybe you'll be interested in starting the show.

It's REALLY GOOD I PROMISE!
