#starry don't look

[u3pxx]

KIM KITSURAGI - “Is that. My kineema.”

COMPOSURE [Medium: Success] - Something in him is about to break, *big time*.

EMPATHY - And it’s not going to be pretty, do something!

- DRAMA [Formidable] - Everything is fine!

- “Sure is.”

DRAMA [Formidable: Failure] - Surely he’s aware that he’s not the *only* person in the world who owns a Kineema?

YOU - “Is it really *yours*? I mean, plenty of people have their own Kineemas, right? Like working men, government offices, uh, firefighters I guess, maybe even animal control people? Exactly! A million different people who could’ve driven it into the uh…”

DRAMA - Pause, my liege! Ixnay on the Ineemakay!

YOU - “It could even be our *mysterious* joyrider!”

KIM KITSURAGI - Your frenzied babbling falls deaf to the lieutenant's ears. Instead, he approaches the broken vehicle, sunken in the ice. He moves with a caution and gentleness you haven’t seen him display before.

INLAND EMPIRE - It must be cold and lonely down there, in the icy water. Maybe he could sense its sorrow, calling to him…

PERCEPTION (SIGHT) [Easy: Success] - His hands, which are always stiffly placed behind his back, are trembling.

ENDURANCE - This is the shuffle of a tired, tired man.

HALF LIGHT - He’s going to do something drastic because of you. Oh god, terrible! You’re a terrible liar! You can’t look at this, you just can’t!

VOLITION [Formidable: Success] - It's not *you* who drove his kineema into the sea. You have plenty of faults, but this one is decidedly not yours.

KIM KITSURAGI - He kneels down with his head bowed, casting his face in shadow. He plants a hand on the ice to stabilize himself, squinting to get a better view of the motor carriage. “Detective, it says ‘57’ on it.”

YOU - Sweat drips down your brow, and you feel a terrible headache coming. “Maybe our joyrider has an affinity for that number?”

LOGIC - He's not stupid, he knows that it's not that.

KIM KITSURAGI - “57.”

YOU - “What about 57?”, you brace yourself.

KIM KITSURAGI - “Precinct 57.”

YOU - You wince. “Kim, look-”

KIM KITSURAGI - “When I woke up in the Whirling-in-Rags with no memory of what happened during the days before, I've taken note that something of mine has gone missing.” He grits his teeth. "A very. Important. Something."

He runs his hands over his face, messing his already unkempt hair in the process. Regret creeps up on his features. “God. Fuck. They’re going to fire me over this, they’re not going to hear me out.”

EMPATHY - Desperation settles in the lieutenant's tone. Sadly, you find yourself in agreement, even if you don’t want it to be the truth.

YOU - “People are more valuable than machines, Kim.”

KIM KITSURAGI - “Not people like me.” He rasps.

YOU - “…”

KIM KITSURAGI - Before you can say anything more, you fail to notice the lieutenant carefully walking onto the edge of the ice. He looks over the frigid water, a dizzying blue that mirrors and distorts his exhausted face back to him.

YOU - “Kim?”

KIM KITSURAGI - Seconds pass as he looks to be contemplating something. Out of nowhere, he casually takes another step where the ice ends and the sea begins. It happens all too quick for the lieutenant to even voice a call for help— if he even wanted to — his body plunging into the cold water before your eyes.

YOU - “KIM!!!!”

uhhh bonus stuff? sorry i have swap au brainworms pfttt

(im not sure what skills kim has at the moment so rn he only has narration as his inner monologue ok whoops, i would like to keep harry as the guy who thinks in dialogue trees so im still figuring it out pfttt)

also, this was done bc i wanted to expand on these old scribbles of mine, just like an idea, i just think that he'd be having an even worse time wheezes

#disco elysium #kim kitsuragi #harry du bois #den's disco swap #disco elysium role swap #HI nobody look at the fact that. i am a novice writer at best DFGHJFGH #i had idea for some comic dialogue but it ended up being this instead whoops. i mean i could still draw this as a comic #anyways. i was like. trying to reverse engineer my idea of how kim can change into his bomber jacket instead of his uniform. #which. i dont think you can do with just simple convincing bc that thing is fused to him in spirit so there has to be like a good reason wh #oh it gets ruined! how? it gets like wet or smth! how'd that happened? he threw himself into the sea #also isnt it fitting that my memory problems is making me not remember the things that happen in disco elysium very well wheezes #so whoops if the characterization is a lil off lmaoooooo #but i have been trying to figure out how i want harry to be in this swap au #i dont think he's as well as he wants you to believe he is. and just the image of him pushing this 'youre allowed to be in denial about + #this' to kim about the kineema was so vivid in my head and idk if that tracks but hell. its in there now dfghdjfg #starry don't look #sunnysidedraws #sunnysidedisco

You Matter To Me

Noah and Cody have a quick chat.

Cody really didn't expect to like Noah as much as he does. He also didn't expect Noah to make him this happy. That's why it hurts when he realizes Noah's better off without him. Without his baggage, without his adversity, without his mess. Man what a mess it is. He wouldn't blame Noah in the least if he thought it was too much to handle and left without looking back.

Fortunately, Cody matters too much to Noah to let him go so easily. Cody couldn't be more grateful. Maybe one day he'll learn to tell him.

#ellipsis are a guys best friend! love those things! #anyway WOW was this a struggle. Words are so hard sometimes #like OBVIOUSLY I had this whole event drafted and I knew what was gonna happen but the dialogue I figured out as I went #Is it good?? Do you get it?? Lord I hope so #total drama #total drama world tour #tdwt #total drama noah #td noah #total drama cody #td cody #cody anderson #noco #total drama noco #td noco #world tour but noco are the only ones kissing #Starry makes art #Dear Cody: I hope someday somebody wants to hold you for 20 minutes straight #They don't pull away... they don't look at your face... and they don't try to kiss you #All they do is wrap you up in their arms and hold on tight without an ounce of selfishness to it #I hope you become addicted. I hope you become addicted to saying things and... having to matter to someone #this is also half waitress propaganda. You Matter To Me was written for waitress and its SUCH a good musical please you have to believe me

St Voyager Memes: Tuvok sitting in the corner of the mess hall always reading and always alone is so y/n of him

#Tuvok seems like he has a five step skincare routine...not as extreme as like those fifteen step ones but still - to me? A lot #And he insists it isn't a lot. He thinks everyone should be doing this. #Tom is looking for lotion that is also sunscreen (after getting sunburned) but he forgets to put it on anyway #star trek voyager memes #star trek voyager #st voy #Notes: I made sure that Janeway was also there in the starry eyed ambition one #The Seven being drunk is actually the doctor in Seven's body but it IS meant to represent Seven #I was thinking of that time she got drunk in...is it threshold??? She's laughing and going 'we are as one!!! <3' #but I couldn't find a picture of that so I just went with that one #Tom is not Chakotay's homie but 4 pictures filled the space and he DID trick him #st voyager #Janeway perhaps implies she sometimes eats with Tuvok in 'Riddles' but I don't think we ever actually see them hanging out together

At the end of the day you can use "Varric is an unreliable narrator" to overwrite literally any part of DA2 that you don't like. Like you can say, "Oh of COURSE Varric isn't actually against mage freedom! He just said that he objected to Hawke freeing the mages because Cassandra was interrogating him." And sure, I can't prove to you that he isn't lying about that. I can't prove to you that Varric isn't lying about anything. I can't prove to you that the entirety of Inquisition isn't also Varric making things up because he did also write a book about that and we hear Cassandra reading it in the end credits. At the end of the day if you want to you can basically wipe out Varric's entire character as presented to us and say, "Actually he was lying! He's really this."

But at a certain point you do also have to acknowledge that the frame narrative is a storytelling device that's meant to enhance the story, not like... erase it. Or at least I prefer to acknowledge that, because going too far the other way basically guts the story of all meaning. If Varric is a character we are meant to engage with on any level--and I think it's clear from his prominence in the franchise that he is!--then at least some of what we see him say and do needs to be able to meaningfully interpreted, even if we second-guess him, even if we can pick out half-truths here and there, even if we cross-check our interpretations against how he behaves in other parts of canon.

Like at least some of what we're given about Varric has to be meaningful to his character, or why even bother, I guess is what I'm saying.

#somewhat said i wasn't giving him enough credit in my meta post about how starry eyed he is about pro-templar hawke #that we can't take his objections to freeing the mages at face value #and i mean i guess you can say that but you can say that about literally anything he says in da2 #face remains he's still starry-eyed about hawke no matter what #fact remains his approval follows hawke no matter what #and yes he's also friends with anders! don't mistake loyalty for agreement #it's a thing with a lot of these characters #see also aveline #anyway! #gwaren exports #i guess! #i'm not trying to be salty here but i just don't agree with the premise #dragon age stuff #blunders of thedas #please don't go digging and argue with anyone on my behalf btw #their comments were in the tags i assume they weren't looking for a fight #i just saw them and had feelings

#rolling with difficulty #vrla rwd #mrsn rwd #rwd starship #shoutout to fall out boy for writing lyrics that absolutely slap with no context i guess #get it. do you get it. cuz mechanites don't dream (starts sobbing) #something something the least mrsn could ask for is for vrla to remember him fondly and he can't even do that bc all his memories are gone #also yes it's a stylistic choice to draw mrsn as the starry apparition here but it's also absolutely bc the apparition is easier to draw #ITS SO FUN. i just do a white outline with a little gaussian blur then go to town on the starry background #between the astral sea and the mrsn ghost i just keep having to draw that kinda starry background and i have lots of custom brushes for it #and it's just. so much fun. just slapping colours and shinies on the canvas like a small child #the original idea i had in my head was significantly less... close contact but then i looked up couples dancing pose refs on pinterest #and got the fucking gayest reference image ever so here we are #WALAO TUMBLR MOBILE FUCKED UP THE RESOLUTION AGAIN NABEI #art I made

all couples have their fights and so do Éomer and Lothíriel, but the really difficult one was deciding which of them gets Arwen as the maid of honour for their wedding.

#Éomer #Eomer #Lothíriel #Lothiriel #Arwen #I have this headcanon that Éomer and Arwen are low-key very good friends #it maybe started with him being all starry-eyed when he first saw her #but developed into a genuine friendship because maybe they both felt a bit like outsiders in Gondorian high society #so they have each other's back and whenever there's something going on they don't Get they will exchange incredulous looks #on the other hand there is Lothíriel: #her father is among the most high-ranking nobles of the land #which would also make her one of the top women of Gondor #maybe she would even act as Arwen's lady-in-waiting #and if she did I can easily imagine them becoming friends #and Lothíriel herself becoming a queen might seek for Arwen's advice and support #also: Arwen is among the first to notice Éomer making eyes at Lothíriel (and vice versa) #Arwen Ships it and gives errands to Lothíriel that cause her to run into Éomer #and invites Éomer to events where he is likely to meet Lothíriel #also she will subtly praise one to the other at appropriate occasions #is Arwen the best wingwoman in the history of Gondor? you bet she is #conclusion: both Éomer and Lothíriel want Arwen as a maid of honour #headcanon #text

Indigo's Magical Girl Transformation™ starry form, before and after I added the effects. Obviously this does spoil the 'what's in your pants' joke but honestly they're not, like, actually private or secretive about their anatomy, and also I just think a naked little guy with a gun is funny

#dnd #dungeons and dragons #character art #illustration #gnome #druid #circle of stars #nudity #ALSO the way I finished the flintlock makes it look like some kind of deepfried jpeg with filters on it?? but I drew it I swear :') #man their starry form was the punchline for a shitpost so I kind of phoned it in #but I wish I hadn't cause I Don't Love It and it my mind's eye it looks SO extremely cool lol I should revisit it in earnest #I feel like a lot of people have lots of OCs that lowkey just exist to be cool and have cool aesthetics but Indy's my only one #I've played them once! and though I'd very happily play them again they're also just fun to think about aesthetically #a pirate for kethri to kiss? indigo. actually just anything pirate related? indigo. cool starry druid shit? indigo babeyyy #my OCs #indigo #(oh any pronouns btw)

Kinda sad that season 1 of NB never had a mini arc where Lucifer goes missing, causing everyone to freak out and turn the house upsite down looking for him, but then it turns out he was just chilling in Lilith's room

#everyone freaking tf out: #mc looking at the doll house: hey wait a minute #anyway season 2 don't let me down and include this (it will not include this) #obey me #obey me nightbringer #obey me lucifer #mel's starry musings

@constellation-owl-prince

Blitz paced back and forth in his apartment, muttering to himself as he did. Should he send it now? What if he's too busy, and doesn't see it? Or what if he does and ignores him, like he's been doing? Or maybe his stupid plan breaks again and-

He gives himself a slap against his forehead. Ugh, he was overthinking this shit again. He has to do this sooner or later, and it was better to just get it all over with. So, he pulls out his phone...and starts texting Stolas.

[txt]Hey. Do you wanna meet up?

[txt]I wanna finally talk about stuff between us.

One thing about embroidery is that there's always one project that makes you want to kill yourself and another that's completely neutral. The only good thing you feel while doing it is the pride you feel after you're done.

#my latest project is a dark blue basball cap #I'm embroidering flowers and stars so it looks like a meadow at night #this project I don't mind #I'm using it to procrastinate on another project #a recreation of starry night #the strands are too thick and it takes like two hours to do like one centimeter #embroidery
