#please like it gives me motivation

[thebroccolination]

As someone who has never been interested in vampires, I am extremely excited for BounPrem's vampire series.

It's partially because I love BounPrem, sure, but it's mostly because I respect the amount of very professional research and preparation Boun has committed to the role over the past several years.

I just think his artistry should be honored by my diligent attention.

Boun is a professional vampire fetishist, and that man will neck like no man has ever necked before.

#in fairness i did love first kill #give me back my soft vampire lesbian and her soft monster hunter girlfriend netflix you bastard #the other two thai bl vampire series airing this year will probably be enjoyable to the people who enjoy vampires as a genre #i just had no interest based on the teasers and the couples #i also trust bounprem to make it feel very very queer #whereas like #i do not trust the other two series to do that #the bp one is exciting because boun has been begging for a vampire series for years and i love when someone puts their soul into a thing #he's just been so cute and happy about it #and the fact that boun's passion project is part of what got prem's interest and motivation back is just #man #i so hope they just have a total blast with it because boun and i deserve it #bounprem #the vampire project #dear boun please give the series a real name please thank you please

"and im getting quality prompts too. why dont these ppl have their own blogs so i can follow them and rb all this premium stuff. "

…. It was a mistake to put Din next there for size comparison 😭 also I’ll very badly need some help with writing the dialogue whenever I get there, or it will be a “This is the Way” interaction back and forth and I’m only half joking XD

#I wanted to crop that part out for a reason orz #Wip #my art #paz vizsla #let no one tell you that spite is not a good source of motivation #as far as I’m concerned Paz only needs some recovery time he is perfectly fine and will soon give Din hell for his parenting style #can’t believe this is the reason why I’m finally sitting down to draw Paz for the first time #I’ll take no criticism on the minigun I refuse to stare at it any more #dinpaz #hades AU #a commission and my shoulder is giving me hell so some lining was what I needed obviously lol #it’s armor armor like…. lol I just need s good nights sleep please

(While I am here: I have gotten a few comments on the little holiday post like 'posts are back' etc, and while I do appreciate the enthusiasm - the holiday post is just a One-Off Special Post, and please do not expect regular updates for the moment

As mentioned before, the next update is a Big One, and I had to rewrite and redraw a large portion of it and I got burnt out, among other irl things or just simply wanting to focus on something else for a bit

I also think bc the majority of folks wanted longer posts, my brain saw Big Task and got overwhelmed, bc I am Bean Bean the Fool - so I may just split up the Big Post into smaller posts and just post as and when they are ready - but again, please do not expect updates right at this moment

Okay that is all, thank you

#ooc post #we also gotta finish the Fucking Intermission first #I swear it'll be worth it #Fiend will give you guys a hint for the main story #I just need to work on it motivation be damned #also I am sure it was supposed to be taken in a lighthearted way #but someone said they 'can finally be happy again' bc 'posts [were] back' #and I am like please do not put that on me #I barely make enough happy for myself I cannot be responsible for your happiness too jkgfklgf

[tethered-heartstrings]

getting fic ideas in rapid succession feels like a trail of candies weaving through dark, overgrown woods leading me to an early, fiery demise but I am so so hungry and easily swindled

#the speaking clown #post a fic and now have motivation to write 7000 more #tbf one is basically done lmaoo #its like riding the high of posting and keeping it alive by posting more and more #my list of fics to write is getting longer and longer #lord give me TIME and energy please!

[ganondoodle]

got visually spoiled on the literally last thing i was still actively missing and working towards in totk but i dont think im gonna like it anyway ...

if it is what i think it is, and what it looks like to be, its just yet another nail in the coffin (or however you say that) as to why the lore sucks in this game even tho it had such good setup and so much potential

#ganondoodles talks #totk spoilers #tagging it as such bc im gonna say my current thoguhts about it here #again its just visually and i havent seen the text to it yet #so please dont say anythign about it #but #im 100% certain its the reward for all shrines which i dont have yet #and first of all it looks dumb as shit #and second of all its supposed to be the ancient hero in the tapestry isnt it #the zonau got their grimy hands on that too dont they #the thing that was such a cool mystery all this time got solved just like that isnt it #nintendo saw us theorizing about gan being the ancient hero and thought oh gods now we cant give him nuance quickly invent some zonau excus #however that makes sense since they were supposedly long gone by the time the first calamity happened #which still happened even with the time fuckery going on since the tapestry still exists and the last guardian remains #tho it doesnt look quite like a zonau but more like some creepy ass unholy mix of a lizard and gerudo #im gonna wait with my final judgement since i havent read the text yet #but it for sure isnt motivating me more to get all the last 50 or so shrines #i regret finishing the underground first so much man #all you get is a you did it sticker #literally #should have done the shrines first so at least i couldnt get spoiled on that still #im guessing its funney reference or whatever #some mysteries are better left unsolved #didnt want to rush and get all shrines in a hurry and isntead explore it on my own since the exploring part and world is what i love #aside from the music #but i guess i gotta do that now #actual shrine hutning stream incoming i guess #:/

Wip Wednesday babeeyy

eyy I've finally remembered that wip wednesday exists!! here's some proof that i'm working on something, and that something is the follower milestone gift i said i was going to do and i promise i'm doing it! i'm doing it it's happening i promise! so here's a little taster!!!! and here's Part One if you want a refresher!

And then the kid just vanishes.

In the blink of an eye, in the time it takes for him to look down, screw his face up because this is all confusing as fuck, and look back up, he’s just gone. There’s nowhere to hide, there’s nowhere to go, Jason can see everywhere around him—but he can’t see Danny.

“Well… shit."

“What, what happened?” Dickybird hisses in his ear, the unsaid, exasperated “now” very clear in his voice. 

As much as he loathes to admit it, Jason is feeling very much the same way right now. What was meant to be a simple case of “investigate the potential child abuse and put an end to it” has instead become something… less simple. When is it ever simple in his life?

Still. If working with supers, metas, vigilantes, whatever, has taught Jason anything, it’s that just because you can’t see someone doesn’t mean they’re not there.

“Hey, kid… Danny. Listen, I’m not here to hurt you and if you’re still here, if you can still hear me, then, I don’t know, do you want to get a bite to eat or something? I just want to talk. I just want to figure out what’s happening.”

Jason doesn’t hold his breath. 

Okay, no, that’s a lie. Jason holds his breath, but he swears he’s holding it so he can more accurately hear if Danny is still around. That’s all it is, he’s not attached to this kid already. He’s not.

When no answer comes—not even a whisper of a breath or the scuff of a sneaker on the pavement—he suppresses a frustrated growl and opts instead to breathe deeply and pinch the bridge of his nose.

“So…” Tim begins, drawing out the word.

The urge to growl—hell, the urge to pull out his comms and smash them on the floor—grows.

“The kid’s a meta, then. Potential powers including but not limited to: invisibility or teleportation. You think he’s still there?” There’s no reason for the kid to still be around, not at all. If it was Jason, he’d have scattered as soon as he realised the stranger impersonating his dad wasn’t the guy he thought was impersonating his dad, and honestly, wasn’t that extra fucked up? That someone impersonates people in this town often enough that it’s not a surprise? The way Danny spoke about him… What was his name?

Amorpho. Amorphous. Without shape. 

A shapeshifter?

Whatever. It’s a mystery for another time, because there’s still a more pressing mystery in front of him.

Or,. rather, not in front of him.

Yes, there’s no reason for Danny to still be here, but…

Jason sighs. 

“I’m going to Bat—Nasty Burger. Really? Is that the best burger joint here? Nasty Burger? Whatever, I’m going to get some fucking fries.”

Jason feels fucking stupid talking the air like this. He must look fucking stupid, too, but the thing is… There’s a prickling on the back of his neck, a rolling taste of green on his tongue when he glances through his peripheral, the vague weight of an unseen eyes on him. 

Call it wishful thinking, call it a hunch, call it something else, but Danny’s still here.

“There’ll be a burger waiting for you, too, if you want it. My treat.” Jason turns in a full circle, examining everything in his surroundings. Nothing seems out of place, nothing screams wrong to him. “I just want to talk.”

He waits for a full minute with no success, which makes Jason feel even more stupid, before clicking his tongue and making his way to the, hopefully ironically named, Nasty Burger.

#dpxdc #wip wednesday #lol i've been trying to post this for ages #even thought i should make a new day - fuck i forgot about wip wednesday friday #might still do that tbf haha #hailsatanacrab🦀🦀writes #so here we go!!! #idk if i'll delete this later - is that what people do with wip weds?? idk #uh but here we are #please give me some motivation i'm at a wall and i'm banging my head against it 🙏🙏 #uh. also. this silly little wip that i had no idea how to follow on from what i'd added to the prompt #is now like 12k long and growing more and more #why do i do this to myself #everything just becomes so big woof #anyway enjoy!!

i'm going on exam season lockdown as of today, which means no more gifs/edits/anything else because i spend way too much time on them for an engineering student in the trenches lmao. posting this not because i think anybody will notice or care, but so i can hold myself accountable and get embarrassed if i break the pledge. see you on june 3rd for a ghovie creativity extravaganza

edit: besides the ghovie trailer 😭 i cant restrain myself from that one

#actually june 4th because i will be drinking on june 3rd from the moment i close my semiconductors paper #cold turkey on gif making KHBJDGVSCDH RIP #genuinely its such a relaxing thing to do that i find myself prioritising it #and unlike other chill activities it gives me the illusion of productivity #i really need to be getting that from my work and not silly bands #anyway. see u #also in my 4 years of making edits like this in many different circles i've never once felt the need to mention a like/reblog ratio #and i'm fully of the opinion that people can do whatever the hell they like and i never expect interaction #i'm grateful for what i do have #but what primarily motivates me to do this is people sharing their love for whatever is on the post #in the tags or elsewhere #i'm not talking praise or thanks or anything to me i mean 'i love this song' or 'papa looks great here' skdcvkdgvs #'this is my favourite band' u know? it's sharing passion with other people and having them share theirs with me #and in all the 4 years and many many fandoms this (ghost/st) is by far the worst for interaction like that #i'd say ghost especially skhjcsd #and this tag rant isn't a request or a 'please interact more!' or anything like that it's just #a reason as to why i'm a bit discouraged that i'm chatting about to nobody #oh yeah and especially seeing photos posted with no source and no edits get 5x the notes you'd get #the quantity of notes doesn't matter to me but the discussion and tags do #just checked my notes in the middle of typing this and someone rbed some papa ii gifs with #'hope he's steady on his feet the way i would run into him' #KDSGKDSD that's what i'm on about 😭😭😭😭😭 #makes me smile knowing something i posted made somebody feel joy abt a silly band and then shared that with me through the tags #i'm aware i've been here for just over one month so shouldn't be making judgements just yet #but sometimes i wish there was more of that

[everybodyshusband]

it's healthy to go back and reread all the nice comments people have left on your writing i think :3

#this isn't a shitpost by the way i'm serious #i'm phrasing it like a shitpost because haha feelings cringe or whatever but genuinely it's giving me such an incredible boost #both in my general mood but in my belief in my writing skills too #you're all so kind and i appreciate every single comment you guys leave on my fics whether that's on ao3 or in the tags on tumblr #but yeah seriously going back and rereading compliments people have left on your writing is good for your mental health so go do that #and readers please write comments if you can !!! on any and all fics you enjoy !! #even a “💙” or a “loved this !!” is enough to make my day and boost my confidence and i know it's exactly the same for most writers #i'm feeling sappy and very appreciative of you all and i'm making it everyone's problem can you tell sdfjhbsdkf #anyway i'm going to continue reading and replying to comments then do some work and then come back and do some writing #because yay !! the motivation is sparked through nice comments and lovely people ehehe >:) #husband rambles #these tags are LONG i'm sorry O_O

[witch-sweets]

My God it is so difficult to find the perfect in-between when writing Snatcher-

How the PECK am I supposed to balance "murderous jerk who kills anyone who enters his domain mercilessly and isn't adverse to CHILD MURDER" and "severely traumatized victim of abuse who has had their world views turned upside down and is (literally) a shadow of their former self"

Like I have a really hard time finding that perfect balance

On one hand I don't want to make him a pathetic "woe is me and my tragic backstory" character

But on the other hand I don't want to make him an unsympathetic asshole who just murders for the sake of murder

I am aware that I'm not the best at writing

But unless I'm writing from HIS POV I can't figure out how to balance those traits

Help-

#a hat in time #ahit #ahit snatcher #writing woes #i am struggling to find balance from Hat Kids pov #im doing things #the struggle is real #morally grey characters are hard to write from an outside perspective #like writing from theyre perspective you can pin down their motives and little details on why they act the way they do #but the moment you switch perspectives you have to balance those traits in the eyes of the othwr character #please give me advice on how i fix this #its really hard

[roboyomo]

do you ever get an idea for a drawing or an illustration and be like "damn i gotta draw that later!" but then you get only more ideas and you don't know which one to start working on so you basically do nothing

#and then the cycle of “i gotta draw that later!” keeps on going #yea i am having this issue rn #my mind tells me to design reverberation ensemble adam and then it tells me to design distorted adam #and then it gives me an idea for an adam animatic #and then oc illustration ideas #and you're just like “man i want to draw all of these at once....” but you remember a commission you were gonna finish #and you end up just doing nothing but laying in bed yet another day thinking you would be productive #i am okay but man #i wanna draw more and then i don't and it just turns into this repeating cycle #someone please give me more motivation to do anything besides being a shut-in #yomoposting

[i-may-be-an-emu]

I need to do stuff but unfortunately my brain lacks motivation to do anything except stress about how I haven't done the things

#adhd #Please brain why #I need to do things #Give me just an ounce of motivation #But in grams cause idk what an ounce is #Im so tired what am I saying #Not like I know how much is in a gram either
