how much greek mythology do you know?

(for ichiruki month 2023 day 8: fairest)

#ichiruki #kurosaki ichigo #kuchiki rukia #artist life #bleach art life #bleach fanart #irmonth2023 #I've always thought The Judgement of Paris and the subsequent Trojan War was very. Bleach #Hera promised prestige and wealth (being a quincy means ichigo gets a prestigious heritage and position) #Athena promised victory and battle power (being an arrancar gives ichigo destructive battle prowess) #Aphrodite promised the love of the most beautiful woman in the world (being a shinigami means ichigo gets to be with Rukia) #(Ichigo)(Paris) Made A Choice (shinigami)(Aphrodite) #except (Rukia)(Helen) was already married to someone else! with a daughter! #So them falling in love caused Problems (the entire clusterfuck that is Bleach)(The Trojan War) #yeah this little comparison has been on my mind for years #there u have it

btw my latest art recipe is:

photobashing my own refs for poses

csp’s colourize feature (i have used this for ages and it gets u the best base gradients. i do not use it for skin tho bc it gets very muddy)

the artemus pencil set (again, ages)

reffing actors faces!!!!!! important if ur drawing real people, do not so this shit from memory

looping not strong enough by boy genius

lots of reflections and backlighting for drama

I know that I don't really post much on here anymore, but I just wanted to let you guys know one of my most ridiculous throne of glass headcanons, which is this:

Fleetfoot never dies, like she just stops aging around her prime and everyone is just like "what the fuck???" But never questions it because it's just too damned confusing to even start questioning it.

Like one day, Rowan starts to say to Aelin "are we ever going to talk about...?" And aelin cuts him off by saying no and that's it, no more attempts at questioning

Fleetfoot does eventually pass away, but it's only after Aelin has died and a statue of fleetfoot is built next to Rowaelins.

do you ever just look at the way someone talks about something and want to roll around in it??

sometimes the way you guys phrase things—personal posts, metas, ask answers, fic comments—just like, the way you express yourselves as yourselves—

i could literally listen to you forever. i want to put you in my pocket and carry you around and have you explain things to me all day.

#y'all are too good to be real #honestly sometimes some of the things you say feel like physical relief to read and i cannot fully explain why but i LOVE IT #idk what this post is or why i had to tell u but #there u have it

[hauntedwoman]

For that question meme, except I made my own question:

Do you have any scrapped scene from one of your fics that you're attached to and would you ever post it as a stand-alone?

questions from this ask meme here, if u all want to ask me more questions!!

ooooooh owo what a FUN question oh man oh boy

ok this not exactly a scrapped scene but an entire scrapped storyline i had was from my chili fic, these sunlit days our hands engrave; i don't think it'll ever be a standalone, but it was. a fun idea. initially, i was going to have one of yanwang dijun's court officials Qiu Zhaosi be a traitor of Yueshi (for cdrama reasons of loveee) but ended up. not doing that （〃・ω・〃） ....it was a little bit too complex to fold into the narrative haha....however, for your reading pleasure, im putting down the unreadable messy notes i had in my docs for him:

'You, of all people, should understand, gongzi," he says. "You would do anything for those you hold dear, would you not?"

Official Qiu receives a threatening note—same matching pouch like his, and a cut off hank of a girl's hair, with blue ribbons next to it —his lost love, who has Anemo Vision (survive energies longer) and plays guqin in battle

Official Qiu is revealed as the traitor —his true love slaps him, he says it's fine as long as she's safe, he knew the price he would pay.

He has to go over to the enemy side, to serve their kingdom as strategist/be their hostage.

Childe takes his place instead to feign being the traitor - to escape from Yueshi, because Zhongli will be too weakened by replenishing the seals AND also fighting to undo the barriers for Childe (and he missed the auspicious hour to leave, because Childe left Zhongli waiting to see what Official Qiu was up to). 

Childe knocks out both Official Qiu and the girl to keep them from arguing with him. Sends up a signal flare, turns on his heels and leaves by himself to confront the enemy battalions

#there u have it #long post #memeity meme #it would have been SUCH a cool storyline if i pulled it off but maybe in another time in another fic lol #replies to an admiring bog #a-yarn-of-purple-prose #forgot to tag the asker woops

i got rickrolled today but it didn't work because i have adblocker installed, so youtube just told me i violated the terms of service. yesterday i was trying to edit a picture as a joke for my girlfriend, and google made me check a box to prove i'm human because i wasn't "searching normally".

it isn't just that capitalism is killing fun and whimsy, it is that any element of entertainment or joy is being fed upon by this mosquito body, one that will suck you dry at any vulnerability.

do you want to meet new friends in your city? download this app, visit our website, sign up for our email list. pay for this class on making a terrarium, on candlemaking, on cooking. it will be 90 dollars a session. you can go to group fitness, but only under our specific gym membership. solve the puzzle, sign up for our puzzle-of-the-month-club. what is a club if not just a paid opportunity - you are all paying for the same thing, which makes you a community.

but you're like me, i know it - you're careful, you try the library meetings and the stuff at the local school and all of that. the problem is that you kind of want really specific opportunities that used to exist. you are so grateful for libraries and the publicly-funded things: they are, however, an exception - and everything they have, they've fought tooth-and-nail to protect. you read a headline about how in many other states, libraries have virtually nothing left.

do you want to meet up with your friends afterwards? gift your friends the discord app. you can choose to go to a cafe (buy a coffee, at least), a bar (money, alcohol) or you can all stay in and catch a movie (streaming) or you can all stay in bed (rent. don't get me started) and scream (noise complaint. ticket at least).

you want to read a new book, but the book has to have 124 buzzwords from tiktok readers that are, like, weirdly horny. you can purchase this audiobook on audible! your podcast isn't on spotify, it's on its own server, pay for a different site. fuck, at least you're supporting artists you like. the art museum just raised their ticket price. once, they had a temporary exhibit that acknowledged that ~85% of their permanent art galleries were from cis white men, and that they had thousands of works by women (even famous women, like frida! georgia o'keefe!) just rotting in their basement. that exhibit lasted for 3 months and then they put everything away again.

walmart proudly supports this strip of land by the street! here are some flowers with wilting leaves. its employees have to pay out-of-pocket for their uniforms. my friend once got fined by the city because she organized a community pick-up of the riverfront, which was technically private property.

no, you cannot afford to take that dance class, neither can i. by the way - i'm a teacher. i'm absolutely not saying "educators shouldn't be paid fairly." i'm saying that when i taught classes, renting a studio went from 20 bucks an hour to 180 in the span of 6 months. no significant changes to the studio were made, except they now list the place as updated and friendly. the heat still doesn't work in the building. i have literally never seen the landlord who ignores my emails. recently they've been renting it out at night as an "unusual nightclub; a once-in-a-lifetime close-knit party." they spent some of those 180 dollars on LEDs and called it renovating. the high heels they invite in have been ruining the marley.

do you want to experience the old internet? do you want to play flash games or get back the temporary joy of club penguin? you can, you just need to pay for it. i have a weird, neurodivergent obsession with occasionally checking in to watch the downfall and NFT-ification of neopets. if i'm honest with you all - i never got into webkins, my family didn't have the money to buy me a pointless elephant. people forget that "being poor" can mean literally "if i buy you that toy, i can't afford rent."

you and i don't have time to make good food, and we don't have the budget for it. we are not gonna be able to host dinner parties, we're not made of money, kid. do you want some kind of 3rd space? a space that isn't home or work or school? you could try being online, but - what places actually exist for you? tiktok counts as social media because you see other people on it, not because they actually talk to you.

there was a local winter tradition of sledding down the hill at my school. kids would use pizza boxes and jackets and whatever worked, howling and laughing. back in september, they made a big announcement that this time, rules were changing, and everyone must pay 10 dollars to participate. when im not scared shitless, i kind of appreciate the environmental irony - it hasn't gone below 40. so much for snow & joyriding.

i saw a bulletin for a local dogwalking group and, nervous about making a good first impression, showed up early. the first guy there grimaced at me. "sorry," he said. "there's a 30-dollar buy-in fee." i thought he was joking. wait. for what? the group doesn't offer anything except friendship and people with whom to walk around the city.

he didn't know the answer. just shrugged at me. "you know," he said. "these days, everything costs money."

#spilled ink #warm up #“why did u tag it warm up” bc i wrote it off the cuff while drinkin coffee lol #btw the 30 dollar buy in for the dog walking is bc they pay the organizer a small pittance so she can #run fb ads and stuff and like she does put in a lot of work i don't mind paying her #but that's exactly what im fucking talking about like. #ppl can't afford to volunteer their time anymore and we all understand it!!! everything costs money for everyone! #like we didn't have to use to say ''do you mind paying me back for the stuff we ate'' #we used to be able to afford to feed our friends once in a while!!!
