6 years ago today, fall out boy released a record that changed the trajectory of my life.

happy 6 years, mania. i'll always love you.

#fall out boy #fob #mania #*mine #*art #id in the alt text #in which zero's undertale influences are so so so so so obvious #i spent waayyyyyyy too long on this cause i kept adding more Things to it #i gotta celebrate this records release every year tho...shes that important to me #based on the mania snowglobe they sold back during this album cycle...which i of course regret not getting #wasnt feasible at the time but alas

Sometimes it really does get me. The very last living villager of Kul Elna was murdered in the same place as his predecessors by the son of the king who reigned over the massacre. Children repeating and re-enacting, in small-scale, the violence of their parents and the state that raised them.

#what do i keep saying about cycles am i broken record yet

Every time she gives the coping mechanism Champagne Problems speech I become more and more convinced TS11 is coming a lot sooner than I would have thought even as recently as a month ago (and frankly sooner than SHE thought)

#it just seems like she’s really realized that whatever she’s doing in the studio is helping #but that sharing whatever it is will complete the cycle of healing or whatever #and she doesn’t want to draw that out for the sake of having finished the tour or the re-recording projects first

my parents listening to the raven boys audiobook on their road trip was not on my 2023 bingo sheet. but now i’m receiving texts like these

and I DON’T KNOW HOW TO FEEL

#for the record this was not my idea #anna if you’re reading this i’m mad at you #i didn’t approve this #they’re going to know too much #trc #the raven boys #richard campbell gansey iii #monmouth manufacturing #ronan lynch #adam parrish #the raven cycle #blue sargent #pynch #adam and ronan #blue lily lily blue #mine #the gangsey #gangsey

POST MORE SWORD OF FATE PLS IM BEGGING

i have very little in terms of actual art LMAO but i CAN explain the sword thing because i checked and i did in fact never make this plot point public. i struggled for a while with creating a villain for this story until i realized that. i put "sword" in the title of the game. of course it has to be about the fucking sword. DUH.

so i want SOF to deal very heavily with religion, specifically the way in which hyrule's religion forms post-sksw but pre-reincarnation. i've placed it on the timeline directly after sksw, making it the first actual reincarnation in hyrule. what this means is that there's no actual proof yet that the reincarnation thing is real and not just an insane bluff on demise's part, and so several key characters including link and zelda barely believe in hylia or demise at all when the story starts. my thought with this setting's version of ganon is that he's the polar opposite of the nonbelievers. The gerudo don't really exist as of now, but he DOES come from the desert region of hyrule--specifically, he was raised in a cultlike offshoot of the sheikah religion which interpreted the hylia/demise myth completely literally and believes that a doomsday is coming, heralded by the foretold return of demise. Because of this, he knows more about the cycle and how to set it in motion than basically any other character. Crucially, he and his people are some of the only ones at this point aware of the existence of the master sword.

ganon finds. a sword. a sword which he THINKS is the master sword. and this theory is only reinforced when the sword begins to speak to him about his destiny and the salvation of hyrule. unfortunately it is not the master sword and he ends up basically a pawn in the greater plans of what's left of demise & ghirahim within that sword, manipulated into attempting to revive demise and destroy the reincarnated hero and princess. he remains in denial until basically the very end of the final battle, completely convinced that he is the true savior of hyrule and LINK is the one being misled. ghirahim is a very good manipulator lol

#i know that the sword like dies with demise in sksw or whatever but this is my game and i can do whatever i want so ive decided it survives #because i need a plot device. ok. work with me here #asks #loz: sword of fate #anyway the religion thing is something that i really wanted to explore bc it fascinates me. bc obv in later cycles everyone believes #because they KNOW its true and have like. historical evidence of it. but what about the first few times it happened? post-sksw they had no #way of knowing if demise would make good on his promise or not. i can see belief vs nonbelief being a very strong dividing factor among #early hylians. its fascinating to me. lol #anyways zelda specifically fully believes that the hylia shit was made up by her great great grandparents or whatever as a power grab lmao #link is kinda like whatever. sure the goddess exists i guess ill pray to her sometimes but like did she actually found hyrule? probably not #and ganon and his people are HARDCORE believers. like to-the-letter. because of this they have one of the most historically accurate #accounts of hyrule's founding (which no one BELIEVES is accurate at this point. but it is) and have managed to hold onto records of both #the master sword and demise when society at large has basically either forgotten or decided to ignore them #wow. i forgot how fun sof is to write about. holy shit

Please enjoy and feel free to use this very good and broadly applicable reaction gif I made for when you have just received special wartime orders. The Hinamori version is for when you have reservations about the special wartime orders. The cropped one is for when you feel nothing but unalloyed excitement about your newfound permission to release your zanpakutou within the Court.

#bleach #my edits #SPECIAL WARTIME ORDERS! SPECIAL WARTIME ORDERS! #for the record this is from bleach 34 #which i was looking up b/c it has that out-of-cycle Academy flashback where momo and izuru make puppy eyes at renji while he beats them up #and then he jumps over a log and three boulders to go talk to rukia #but this was just THERE i had to gif it #and yes this was the same episode with renji's pantene hair truly it contains multitudes

Random post game scenario, after of which a towerless Pizzahead tricks Peppino to "let" him work "with" him. First day; and Pepperoni is already completely fed up with the guy!

Pizzahead hates dishes, and WILL break them rather than washing any. ever. this is canon and you CANT CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE

#pizza headed man: blorbo of my brain ☆ blorbo of my heart ♡ #i imagined this scenario tbh like the day after i discovered pizzatower i only just drew it now haha #also for the record this is a small scene of my internally imagined post canon ya #pizzahead tricked peppino into being 'buisness partners' and letting pizzer work with pepp (not FOR him- so he cant be fired easily) #and peppino immediatly puts him on dishes duty out of spite and annoyance #problem with one spitefull dude with another even pettier one- is that it cycles #pizzahead never does dishes even in his tower never ever he buys esclusivly paper plates and plastic utensils always #peppino uses glass plates bc washing them is cheaper than constantly supplying more disposable plates #and ofc their ideals clash lmao #its just. so funny !!! #these blorbos... they do such funny things #dorf's art #sketchy doodles #pizza tower #pizzahead #peppino spaghetti #i have so much to say about them haha #feel free to ask about my 'AU' where they work together bc i do have a couple ideas about it i just dunno where to start #pizza tower spoilers

my mother really tells me the horrible things then men she and my sisters married/date did and pushes me to be in a relationship?? mother, i'm safer and happier being delusional online with kim seungmin thank you very much

#their track record with men is...horrible #between the three of them they had 6 husbands #and all of my siblings that were married are all now divorced so #i will be breaking the cycle by not stepping foot in a relationship

"you know my stance on the usefulness/health of taylor constantly going backwards and relitigating the emotional reality of her life in the past….." I must have missed some posts because everything you said kind of blew my mind 😭 have you posted about this before?

oh to be fair i almost never post about taylor anymore and it occurs to me that usually when i do post-re-record release people get so upset with me i just delete them all 😭😭😭 this really has nothing to do with taylor specifically i just am not a person who loves like. going over and over and over something that’s already happened and esp for taylor who is. shall we say perhaps a little stuck in amber by virtue of superstardom this whole thing is like. well one day i’d like you to let your past selves rest in peace and just look forward into the clear skies where you can build whatever you want. because writing prologues about hurts you felt when you were 24 so you can release music about when you were 24 is like. well i hope this is doing what you want it to do, i support whatever you need but i’m sitting here patiently waiting for adult in-her-thirties taylor to feel more comfortable with that fact and start making music for that crowd.

#to be clear i am not against the rerecordinfs i love reclamations fueled by righteous bitterness #my patience is just be tried by how long this is going and how we have to do this whole cycle every time #like MINE. my. i know this is a personal reaction and i’m not saying there’s no validity. but like i watched miss americana! and that girl #was barely waking into the consciousness of being an Adult so everytime she unburies a past self im like well. we shouldn’t be living in #THIS space for too long #taylor swift #i literally just already know all this / don’t think the re-records are better / wants new stuff that is good

Arthurs’ a big history nerd and you can’t convince me otherwise ‼️

Why?? did he know so much about Carleon’s attack and retreat in ‘Castle of Fyrien’

And then he proceeded to happily geek out about it for Gwen 💀 (kinda adorable ngl)

Also he’s just generally very well-versed in Camelot history, ex: the deleted scene in s4ep1 where he just goes off! about the citadel of Daobeth with only minor prompting from Merlin

Exposition King 😌✨

And how does he seem be the kingdom-wide #1 expert on Wilddeoren? Hmm??

I rest my case

#bbc merlin #arthur pendragon #king arthur #he’s just patiently waiting for the opportunity to infodump on the knights if they ever make the mistake of asking 💀 #I honestly love how excited he looks about stuff like that tho #his secret hidden passion #queen Guinevere had to limit him to 1-2 tomes of Camelot history per day otherwise the kingdom wouldn’t run #don’t know what to get Arthur for secret santa? #problem solved: raid Geoffrey’s historical fiction section #tbh he’s probably already scoured it #Geoffrey finding teenage Arthur skipping a few training sessions on rainy days to sit in and read #he turns a blind eye but secretly loves that at least someone’s taking an interest #literally the reason Geoffrey decided to compile and record all of King Arthur’s adventures and doings for the future generations #because he knows that Arthur would’ve loved to read about something like that 😭💖 #why did I have to make it sad why #it’s the cycle of tragedy of Arthuriana or smthg ig 🥲

Fanfiction rly got me googling stuff like 'do deer go into heat?'

#for the record #they do #white tail deer have like a three month period #where they spend 24-36 hours per 28 day cycle in heat #apologies to anyone who knows whats up #this question was 2/3rd curiosity 1/3 i should write something truly wretched

I suspect I might be quite terrible at arknights owing to not understanding when is a good idea to pop record restoration, not having a very good understanding of which troops to use, and finally not actually being able to tell what is a leveling problem and what is a skill issue. I do like collecting my funny animal people though.

#void talks #arknights #I read an entire article about how fortress defenders are a bad idea #and then I get excited at the prospect of using one anyway #sincerely do not know what's wrong with me #also do the record restoration things cycle out??? #oh god is that also timegated I haven't done like any???
