Caution: This Person May Randomly Break Into Song

This one is for anyone who knows that "slime tutorial" isn't always about messy desk toys.

For the theater nerds, the choir kids, the people who already know the soundtrack to that new animated film with the wide-eyed protagonist with curly hair and the animal companion. You know the one. Hell, you already know all the lyrics.

And your neighbors know exactly what time you shower, because hey, belting out show tunes is cheaper than therapy.

So is the T-shirt, by the way. And the pin!

being an adult means we can buy or make as much self-indulgent shit (as we can afford) and unironically have trinkets of our fave things cause our teen years was bullied for liking things and hiding/denying we were ever neurodivergent to the point of suicide. sucks for anyone that thinks its weird cringe but I'm going to try and allow myself to love myself in little ways now

#wish i could tell younger me that i wasnt fucked up i was just autistic #even if youre not nd i still think having things you enjoy around you is important especially for your space #so i make a notable effort to get fandom stuff for my younger siblings now #like my lil sister thinks getting demon slayer stuff is cringe cause anime and what not (havent read it sorry) #but her face still lights up when i get her a pin for her #or a blind bag with a character keychain #and very slowly the self hatred and whatever it feels like that youre not allowed to like anything and that anything you like is bad #starts to diminish #my qpp is obsessed with birds and chickens and has so many trinkets around the house for it #or my friend who loves how pretty stained glass looks that his walls are covered in thrifted stain glass pieces #i know an elderly couple who are obsessed with star trek and they have a room in the house purely for shelves stacked with collectables #my friend's dad is so obsessed with spiderman that he has 3 walls full of figurines and posters and collectables that prob amoutn to tons #like i dont get it but i get it #maybe its because im sick rn but im in my head tonight about human loving things and stories and cocepts to the point of comfort #sara shush #ramble

Qrow’s Semblance is Fortune! 🐦‍⬛

I talked about this briefly before, having speculated that Clover’s pin carries on his good luck after death or that Qrow has just done a lot of training mentally and/or physically. @benevolentslut had some amazing additions as well & I want to sum up this theory for you as best as I can as we reached similar conclusions even before I had read her reblog.

Qrow has only been in the negative all his life, mentally and emotionally.

This man has had barely any positivity in his life.

"His whole life he's been the epitome of cynicism and pessimism." - @benevolentslut

Qrow grew up under constant stress & threat of those around him.

Needless to say, but I don't think he could trust anyone he grew up around except maybe Raven.

Then he has to constantly worry about being found out by the other huntsmen! Also growing up with the threat of huntsmen and Grimm the entire time!

Then Oz drops the whole Salem problem on him & I'm sure that didn't help his mental health in the slightest!

"His sister leaves him and their team, and then summer disappears." - @benevolentslut Yeahhhh he is losing everyone close to him in one way or another! That cannot be a fun experience!

This look like the face of a guy that's doing okay?

I'm just going to copy paste this here as I hadn't noticed it & it feels worth noting that the intensity of his misfortune seems to increase with the increasing mental strain.

While we don't know for sure that all of these things are a byproduct of Qrow's misfortune semblance, it certainly isn't out of the realm of possibility. Notice the worsening of his mental health resulting in potentially more disastrous outcomes. 😰

"we see him blaming himself constantly for everything that goes wrong, and it only causes that to become more true." - @benevolentslut

She lists a lot more examples of where Qrow's semblance has potentially worked this way in the original post. Clover comes along & starts lifting him up, giving him actual hope. He now has a little seed of hope planted in him. 🍀

Wow, Qrow is doing so good for himself lately! I sure hope nothing-

Oh... oh no. From his perspective Ruby & Yang could literally be dead. He is stricken with grief as he watches it all unfold & probably sunk back down into a negative spot mentally. He may even blame himself in some way.

When you're this low, there's a saying that goes "nowhere to go but up."

I firmly believe that Qrow would see things that way, especially after reaching his lowest point. He can only do his best to help those around him. Though he's the most alone he's ever been, he's becoming a part of a new community where people help one another. In that sense, it's impossible to be alone. In spite of it all, he slowly finds his mental health improving! Ruby's message to the world is bringing people together! 🌹

"and we see him take up clover's role, both in terms of how he's helping out around shade, and more literally, in the unmissable parallel where he catches the guy who trips." - @benevolentslut

Ruby & Clover have both filled him with hope & he's more optimistic than he's ever been, which results in bursts good fortune! ✨

There's also already a premise for shifts in mental health and trauma resulting in semblance evolution.

Cinder betrayed Neo & so she winds up in the Ever After & through her form changes is showing us that she now has negative feelings towards Cinder.

She's so upset that her semblance starts to make multiple clones of her which it has never been able to do before. Her Overactive Imagination semblance has evolved due to the state of her mental health.

Her semblance begins to evolve so much to where she can create entire architectural structures and buildings out of it!

She can even use it to talk through the people she recreates, something she's not physically capable of herself.

While we do have to take into account that the Ever After plays by rules that are a little bit different at times; this absolutely confirms that semblances, much like people, can change & grow! 💪

My conclusion: Volume 10 & beyond will show Qrow's personal semblance evolution as he finds out that his power is actually Fortune itself & the ability to control it, good and the bad.

#oh god I have to compress the gifs so much because of tumblr's gif size limit 😩 #thank you for the theory fuel & the supporting points you gave! #maybe I'll do a youtube video on this topic when I come off of my semi-hiatus #wow I told myself I'd keep it brief but here we are; I'm procrastinating packing my bags & making rwby theories #I just think Qrow is a very fascinating character & if we are right about this; he will be an important player in volume 10 & onward #imagine having a guy who can manipulate fortunate on your team; that's actually so powerful as an ability if he can master it #It's not so much that the Clover ebi pin is good luck; but that Qrow himself is becoming a beacon of good fortune #Fair Game lives on in his heart & the hope he's been given even if Clover isn't here to see it #please let me know what you think in the replies; reblogs; whatever; if you have anything to add I'd love to hear all about it! #rwby theory #rwby volume 10 #rwby volume 9 #fair game #qrow x clover #rwby #qrow branwen #greenlight volume 10 #mine #op

If my ass knew how to make custom pins I would sell one that says Protect the Pistachios

#milo murphy's law #balthazar cavendish #vinnie dakota #milo murphy #melissa chase #zack underwood #phineas and ferb #dakavendish #imagine just walking around with that pin on your bag #nobody will get the ref #ironic because we’re supposed to be doing the opposite haha #anyway #i’d be nice to find another fellow mml stan in the wild with that pin

I am honestly still absolutely flabbergasted that those "Gorillaz without the rap" videos exist. Like bro I just don't think you like Gorillaz at that point.

#simon says #the most insane one is Saturnz Barz imo #like why do you wanna listen to 20 seconds of a song?? and not the whole thing??? #actually I take it back the most insane one is Clint Eastwood without the rap #like you're removing the best part of the song because you're like... racist or something??? #like why do you wanna listen to sunshine in a bag the whole time instead of the best fucking part of the song?? #honestly it's like listening to only the chorus of a song and no verse. why do you do that to yourself? #'oh lemme listen to Dirty Harry without the rap' you fool?? you absolute nincompoop?? #anyways I just wanted to complain because i have been listening to Gorillaz and it's so good but also why are people like that?? #like I dont think you like this artist if you're constantly removing a large chunk of their songs because of your biases #also yeah im pinning it on racism 100% like why else would you ruin a good song by removing the parts sung by black artists?

230 am, I can't sleep, I'm sifting through the drawers on grandpa's sewing table before I get up the guts to try and check over and maintain one of these on my own, and I have two questions.

One, why did no one hold an intervention for this man and his collection of buttons? There's so many. Just. So many. I'm starting to wonder if he stole them off of strangers outfits as they passed. More than half of the drawer space is just.. Buttons.

And two.. Why are there cotter pins in so many of these buttons?

#every time I think I've bagged all the buttons #I move something aside and poof #There's more buttons #And hidden underneath those buttons where you can't see until your fingers are already in it? Tiny razor thin pins #Why are your cufflinks mixed in with the sea of buttons? #hachi learns to sew

Replaying the dr games is giving me a new appreciation of them overall, but I really did not realize how much I loved certain characters until now. I’m ecstatic any time nagito’s on screen, I guess he’s for sure one of my favourites fjdhf

#shut up me #after we finished playing for the night I was talking to her vaguely about how excited I am for v3 #and how excited I was to see my favourite character #and she was like ‘oh you mean the guy with the checkered scarf?’ #and I felt every emotion possible at once #*through gritted teeth* n-no not exactly #“but you cosplayed as him + have a pin of him on your bag + a sticker of him on your tablet #y-yeah.. yeah I do…. #cant get into the weeds on that one yet but where’s the Justice for my boy Gonta.

Just kinda... putting this out into the universe for right now, but I've been thinking really hard about getting my old enamel pin collections back in circulation, as well as maybe releasing them as stickers as well (for a budget option and also for things you can't put enamel pins on). I had to throw out basically all my remaining stock when I moved (which... oouugh it still hurts), so I might essentially run a "reboot" kickstarter to get another batch of Dire Hounds made and then try again to get the full Grimalkins set funded. A few things this would let me do:

update the templates for slightly cleaner manufacturing, and update the backer cards with accurate artist info because man that was really bothering me

like I said, hopefully get the second half of the Grimalkins produced so they're a proper six-pin collection like the first one

network! Now that I'm in a big city I think I honestly might have better luck with consignment stores and craft fairs than I ever did with only an online shop, and more visibility can only mean good things.

I'm also still definitely planning to make idog merch, and beyond that I'd potentially love to lean even further into the cyberpunk and y2k aesthetics to really hone my Brand™, but obviously that requires original thought and creative effort while getting the dogs and cats remade just requires pulling the old AI files off my poor aging iMac.

#if possible I'd love to find a (more) local manufacturer instead of the one in the UK I was using before #unfortunately that means they'll cost a bit more up front since they won't have the molds already #which I guess would have possibly been a non-issue anyway if I was gonna tweak the art #but also the lower shipping costs without going through customs..... #anyway just thinking..... on a conceptual level I really miss ~designing merch~ even though I never really excelled at it lmao #a lot of you probably have no fucking clue what I'm talking about because the pins were before your time :/ #just take my word for it they were all really really cool and you want them #I wish I made the kind of art that people want on their walls lmao prints seem like easy money for a lot of people #but it just doesn't mesh with what I make. All I can offer to The People is Little Guys For Your Bag Or Jacket

If there was an abundance of plushies and memorabilia surrounding one of your favorite underrated animals/pokemon/creatures/whatever, what would you be collecting?

#stuffed animals #plushies #plushblr #for me it would be the pokemon Stufful! #I've talked about it before but there's just not enough stuff out related to Stufful #I want anything and everything to do with it #plushies. hats. slippers. socks. bags. pjs. figures. keychains. buttons. pins. cards. art prints. literally everything #sadly bewear has more merch than stufful which is a shame #anyways what is your favorite underrated creature?

Shout out to the girl who saw my Hana Yori Dango itabag at a local con and asked if it was a Yuri anime, because??? no??? But yes, maybe??? But what????

#this too is yuri #they eventually realised it was boys over flowers after seeing the kdrama pins #i wonder who they thought was a girl #also shout out to the girl who saw my bag for 1 millisecond at the pokemon tcg room and exclaimed “I LOVE YOUR HANA YORI DANGO PINS!” #made my day
