#see the gears turn

[hetare-ttk]

As a rule of thumb I tend to use the translated or localized name of a title based on how well it rolls off the tongue or how good it sounds, so I hope everyone understands when I vehemently refuse to call it “Delicious in Dungeon”.

#how do you fuck up Dungeon Meshi’s title that badly #I can even see the gears turning on the logic they used to create that title #it’s a play on DnD I get it #it’s bad

#prsk #prosekai #prjsk #project sekai #toya aoyagi #my art #funny how i drew toya but akito's card was my fave from the world link set #actually this was inspired by how i was showing the cards to my friend and she said didnt like how that guy (toya) looked so out of place o #and i was like '??? but why? toya and an are meant to be matching in the set so why does only toya look out of place?' #then she said she sees akt khn and an leaning a bit but toya is literally just standing there and my eyes OPENED i heard the gears turning #like she was like 'it would be better if he was at an angle or if he was leaning' and that made me drew this lol

the catholic rejection of it all

#one piece #op #trafalgar law #monkey d. luffy #gear 5 luffy #song is big god by florence and the machine #religious symbology? in my shounen anime protagonist? it's more likely than you think #im 24 years old it's the end of 2023 it's MY turn to finally make a cringe amv for christmas #to be clear. i dont think law sees luffy as his god. but i definitely think he's helped law regain some faith #i.e. catholicism (yeah hardy-hah one piece character is an ex-catholic its all very silly but let's take it unironically for a second) #it would've drilled into law as a child to believe in one true cause (that cause being god). and that will supposedly carry him through lif #give hope purpose etc. but a lot of former catholics choose instead to find that in something else. in law’s cause: #the freedom and hope corasan gave him #the freedom that luffy brings. the will of D. the goodness in the people around him #it's a transfer of faith that feels real and tangible #it's a neat concept and I don't see it talked about much #CJ's op watch-through #corasan #donquixote rosinante #sun god nika #CJ's edits #op analysis #amv

No, because I've already talked about this to the Discord besties but I'm still vibrating over the fact that Percy didn't just sacrifice himself for Annabeth, he outsmarted her. He tricked her into letting him be the one to stay behind that's such an amazing detail

#the way the show and specifically walker portrays percy's incredible social and emotional intelligence #i love it so so much #he immediately knows what happened between annabeth and echidna #he knows the right thing to say to cheer her up when she feels bad about snapping at grover #he understands and validates her relationship with athena even though he doesn't 100% GET IT get it #he is so so smart and i love how they're showing that in both dialogue and walker's acting choices #you can SEE the gears turning in his head whenever stuff starts happening #10/10 but also that cliffhanger was inhumane #percy jackson and the olympians #percy jackson disney+ #percy jackson #annabeth chase #percabeth #walker scobell #percy jackson episode 4 #percy jackson spoilers

The LAYERS needed in a modern/human Dreamling au.  Some level of Endless family dysfunction, obviously.  Hob's family can be be dead or not, it's all good. Are they old enough to have individually gained the awareness they are off-puttingly intense and should hide it a bit at first, or still in that "no, why would I need to Elsa this" stage?

Option A is both of them trying to play it cool, like "don't scare him off" except they so badly want to go from zero to sixty.

(Death and Desire have ruthlessly drilled Dream with flashcards about how to react appropriately in situations.

Desire: it's your one-month anniversary, what do you do?

Dream: [hesitantly] NOT propose?

Desire and Death, conferring, because that's technically correct but the delivery was suspect.

Death, encouragingly: Good start. And?


Dream: a nice dinner and maybe a walk?

Desire: well done!

Death: and for a three-month anniversary?


Dream: give them a key to my flat.

Desire: [airhorn] NO. RED CARD.)

Option B makes them the classic anecdotal "my grandparents got engaged within seven days of meeting each other and still are happy together".

(Death, rubbing her temples: so you met this guy--

Dream: Hob

Death: -- Hob, and within 1 day you gave notice to the Registrar's Office and figured out the best day to get married. And Hob agreed to this?

Dream: NO.

Death: oh thank go-

Dream: Hob SUGGESTED this.

Death: . . .

Dream: are you going to be a witness or not?

Death, 29 days later in the Registrar's Office, to Hob's witness: Is he sane?

Johanna Constantine, drinking heavily from a large flask: unfortunately yes, by all legal definitions.

Death: fuck

Johanna: [passing the flask over] if your brother's even a tenth as intense as Hob, they'll be fine. Probably.

Death, brightening: Is Hob that bad?


Johanna: You know how sometimes you meet somebody and think "oof, they're a bit much, best give them a wide berth"?


Death: yeah.

Johanna: Hob's like a camouflaged hole in the ground of muchness. Except he's done the hole up all nice and he knows that sometimes you just want to be left alone in the hole to sulk and rattle the spikes for a bit, and occasionally get a F&M hamper tossed in.

Death: [hmmmmmmm'ing approvingly]

Johanna, morose: the bastard.

In the background, Hob and Dream are pressing their foreheads together and basking in each other's presence)

#dreamling #the sandman #it's underappreciated how many red flags hob probably is buried under his amiable exterior #he looked at dream of the endless and went 'yeah' #not even as a 'i can make him better' #very much as a 'i can vibe with his current state and frankly even if he was worse i'd still be like that's my husband [shrug emoji]' #'what am i supposed to do? i knew who he was when i married him' #everybody around them: [extremely done with their shit] STOP ENABLING HIM #hob: he's my goth sweetheart #dream's entire family: he's ten sulking cats in eyeliner and a dramatic coat #hob: i know :D i love him! #johanna constantine is like 'hob's insane' #and everybody's going 'oh no don't be so mean he's just a little boring next to dream' #johanna: he saw dream being dream and went 'i need to stamp my name on him. how do i permanently tie us together' #johanna: he'd never safety pin a condom but i can just see the gears turning in hob's head about how to get to spend more time with dream #johanna: just radiating smug contentment over his insane wet cat #hob: i cannot wait to spend the next 60 years with that man #hob: and ideally die in our sleep together still holding hands #death and johanna: [staring at him over their fourth round of drinks] #dream: [heart of eyes and pink of cheeks] #dream: we should never not be holding hands #hob: okay but what if occasionally we stop holding hands just to then appreciate the feeling of starting to hold hands again #dream: [mulling] acceptable #death and johanna could probably start an entire benefriends or actual romantic relationship entirely based on judging dreamling

You've mentioned that in the NYSM AU, part of the reason the Narrator became tangible was because of the Skip Button End, and in a way earlier comic, it showed that another part of the reason was because of the Zending. And the Narrator doesn't remember the traumatic endings, but he's still, well, traumatized by them.

Now, you've stated that Stanley absolutely refuses to ever do the Skip Button End ever again (FOR VERY UNDERSTANDABLE REASONS JESUS CHRIST), but... hyyyypothetically, if for whatever reason he went the route of the Zending, and ended that run not through manual reset, but through jumping... oh good god the horrors do you understand the horrors

I do understand the Horrors and think about them frequently. :’)

Especially now that the Narrator is in a rather precarious position with his increased self-awareness. Much like the main game it’s hard to know what carries over in resets and what remains in repressed memories. He is now the most real he’s ever been. Who knows what damage the Zending could do now, after everything he and Stanley have been through so far?

The scenario in which Stanley might use the Full Zending again is one of great desperation, either as a bargaining chip or to make a Very Persuasive Point. He doesn’t want to but it could happen.

the best thing about having a cat that Fully understands and typically obeys the commands "sit" and "stay" is that when she doesn't obey, you're Keenly aware that it's a conscious decision

#AND ITS SO FUCKING FUNNY EVERY TIME #she gets this Look. where i can see the gears turning behind her eyes #and she very purposefully ignores the command #sometimes she'll half do it. pause. and then Visibly Decide to Not #she's so funny.... #but then when she Does do it its so impressive. is this pride im feeling? #i taught her 'sit' and 'stay' along with hand gestures #so like. just a second ago #i as calling her from across the room and she was trotting over #i made the sit gesture (no vocal command) and she stopped and sat Right there and then #SHE'S SO SMART <3 SMART KITTY <3 OH SHE LISTENS!!! #absolutely unprompted #sorry im gushing about letti again <3 she's my everything <3 #shes so clever! shes a genuine Companion! #we just played for like a half hour #and its so sweet... we play with twine (her favorite) and when she's attacking it near my hand #she gets so gentle. claws Away gentle batting slow movements #letti my beloved <3 #not to mention her library of Purposeful meows. we Communicate! #like earlier she made her impatient 'come here' meow and so i did. she was on my bed and waited for me to offer my shoulder #so that she could climb on and use me as a stepping stool to get to my desk #For What Reason!!! to be Hysterical i suppose! i swear she has a sense of humor...
