Decided to skip lineart again on the first image, and it came out really well.

Long story short; Vince/Vincent is a Horseman Demon (themed after the four horsemen of the apocalypse, also called Heralds of Apocalypse in this story) and he wants to turn Angus into one as well, because he thinks that'd give him all the power he wanted when younger (Angus has changed from those days, but Vincent refuses to acknowledge this)

Vincent is Plague type specifically, but if Angus turned he'd be an End Demon, I.E Death themed. (thought of calling them Reaper Demons, but I felt it was a bit too predictable lol)

(Currently, Angus is a blood magic warlock, and has dragonic heritage hence his dual pair of eyes + summonable spiky shoulders/dragonic arms.)

i was so excited (well kind of excited) for the hijack series but oh my god it's bad. and i havent even gotten to the good part yet! the first ep alone has so many plot holes (spoiler warning) from the behavior of the crew to the pilot opening the cockpit door just because they're pointing a gun at his fuckbuddy to the fact that he is able to CHANGE HIS MIND about the emergency on board talking to atc like "yeah never mind it's all good now" LIKE YOU HAVE TO LAUGH

#i get that fictional stories involving planes have to take certain liberties #because aviation is so highly controlled #but that is exactly the point #everybody knows that there are procedures and check lists for every little thing #it's completely ridiculous to expect your audience to believe that a pilot 22 years post 9/11 would simply open the cockpit door for the #hijackers (after knocking his first officer out with a fire extinguisher no less) #this guy SEES A MAN WITH A GUN outside his cockpit and rather than squawking 7500 or using that code when talking to atc #he's like um... possible security incident on board #i dont care if some screenwriter somewhere doesnt give two shits about aviation protocols #one single google search along the lines of #what pilot do when hijacker #and this could have gone somewhere #and ANOTHER THING #the real time narrative #😐 #these people made a seven hour long miniseries about a seven hour flight from dubai to london because #well thats the question isnt it? i sure as hell dont know #because they could i guess 😶 anyway point is #narrative focus aint just a river in egypt #the discrepancy between story time and discourse time exists because some things will always be omitted or summarized BECAUSE NOT ALL OF IT #IS INTERESTING #if you want to tell your story in real time you better have a reason for it #who the fuck looked at a seven hour flight (argaubly one of the worst experiences a person can subject themselves to) and thought #oh my god i wish i could watch this on tv #granted there's a bit more going on with the plane getting hijacked and all #but the pacing is already becoming an issue #and again: I AM ONLY ON EPISODE ONE #anyway im determined to finish this show #im still hopeful that it could improve (as i said: i havent even gotten to the good part yet. this is a show about idris elba negotiating) #and even if it doesnt at least ill be able to shit on it properly lmao

Brian David Gilbert was actually so right with having Zelda Monopoly solve the Zelda timeline

#well ok maybe not zelda monopoly in particular. but i do think hyrule warriors #could at least explain botw's every timeline at once nonsense #and totk too i guess but totk is fucking dead to me so im only counting botw #mb's two am rambling #loz #also it really felt like he didnt have a script. he sounds like i did last time i tried to summarize the zelda timeline

are we really back to "oh you support (blank)? name ten people who (do/are) that right now or else youre lying for allyship points and everything you have to say should be disregarded". i thought we left that back in like. 2012 misogynist nerdbro culture

#i have seen it on two entirely separate topics lately and its like. hello????? #'if you cant name 10 trans authors off the top of your head you shouldnt be talking about trans issues full stop. #i dont think thats an unreasonable expectation for anyone wanting to engage in rational discourse' how about we all go outside #because like yeah i couldnt name you too many trans authors but given my transgenderismness i think i do in #fact still deserve a seat at the table. and i dont think there should be a prerequisite academic education level to be allowed to talk. #'but you could find them for free-' yes‚ you can‚ but people should still be allowed to a) choose what they read based #off of what interests them and not mildly-to-extremely dense nonfiction writing and still Talk About Their Own Lives And Have #Opinions #shockingly not reading a lot of one specific type of author doesnt prevent a person from having reasonable and valuable opinions #if youre not capable of parsing someones argument because theyre not well-read enough then that just imo means you dont actually understand #the things youve read to be able to give them a synopsis #this isnt school. we're not being graded. there is no required reading and you are perfectly capable of giving people an #explanation on your stances if theyre unfamiliar with them #i had a b) but i dont remember what it was‚ i think it probably was part of what i covered there that i thought was a separate thought #but yeah just like. idk you can just say 'hey i would really recommend reading xyz but to summarize‚ (thing that disproves them)' #it is not . difficult to either Explain yourself or‚ if that is not possible‚ Not be condescending to the person youre not willing to teach #for not knowing #ill stop there bc ive already done that ramble before but. yes #origibberish #edit: ok upon reread i got turned around and switched from addressing the less educated one conveying their arguments #to the more well read one #bc that was the b is i was gonna talk about both #yall get what i mean though just like. split it in half and flip it turnways

More progress being made. I finished re-reading The Illusion of Living this past Friday. It's a nice book. 👍 This was the last of the Bendy books in this "marathon" that I'm doing which I had already read previously and now I'm rereading, meaning that I'm kind of up to date when it comes to rereading all the books that were released until December 2021. But the race is not over yet. Soon I'll start Fade To Black, and (technically) I'll finally be up to date.

Just to continue my chain of posting about the books I finished (at least, the main ones that I really wanted to read) here it is…something I did at the beginning of March, on the night when shit went down. (I hope you know what I'm talking about). I saw the tweets first hand, I was there! Right at the damn moment. And it was..something reading those tweets alright. If the image above doesn't show it, my mood that night and the next 1-2 days wasn't so… great. You might read this and think I'm exaggerating, but that night especially I, uuhhh, I didn't feel good! And this image (and maybe 2 more posts I made that night) are the results of that. (And to think that a week before this happened, I had finished rereading DCTL after a long time. Talk about better/worse timing than this)

At least, if you want the bright side of this, it's that even after that day, I decided to continue with my book marathon, and I don't regret it. I was down that day, but I wasn't out yet damn it!! and I'm still not. (I don't know if this sentence makes a lot of sense, but you get my point)

As a bonus, here's something I did the night I got to the part where Henry is first mentioned in the book (you can consider this as a representation of my reaction when he's first mentioned, both for when I read TIOL for the first time in 2021, as now in this rereading)

Feat. canon Henry design and my fanon design for him (I wanted to include him here + I still read this book with my fan-designs in mind)

#bendy and the ink machine #batim #crookedsmile open his mouth #crookedsmile open his mouth;bendy #ABBY LAMBERT; IN MY HEART YOU ALWAYS BE CANON TO THE GAMES; I DON'T CARE WHAT THE OTHERS SAY #also;i'm a Henry Stein fan;could you tell #re-looking at the first image and realizing that I will probably have to change my Abby design eventually;specifically; the hair. #I'm sure this hair doesn't match with what was described in DCTL or TIOL; #It's going to be a little strange; I'm so used to drawing her like this; but hey; every now and then we have to make sacrifices #To summarize my thoughts on TIOL: it's a nice book! Although it is not my favorite among the other Bendy books written by Kress #It's great to see more of Joey; delving deeper into his character and seeing how he thinks and seeing more of his life before the studio #is an interesting read! but I still prefer stories like DCTL and TLO; you know;especially because these two also have the horror factor in #which;considering what TIOL is; it doesn't have it. It's still a good book tho. It's just not my favorite #and re: the whole book canonity thing: I was not happy! Wow; what a surprising thing to say #as someone who enjoyed the books;I was disappointed with what I thought was expanding the games universe;In the end;just wasn't doing it #like;ok;sure;that doesn't mean the books aren't worth reading; I'd say they are! but still;*points to the last tag* #Maybe; one day; in the future; I can even accept this decision and move on with life; you know. understand the why of this. #but in the current present? yeah;no. I will continue to ask myself why #I would say more; but Tumblr has a tag limit apparently so I'm running out of time. as a last message: read the books #regardless of what the devs say; I still think these things should be recognized. #that's all; peace

"glaowster" "glochester" i disagree

#ok he skipped the first two acts and summarized them in like 3 sentences and also made a joke about how long everything takes and how these #scenes take forever to do stuff that could have happened really quickly #STOP TEACHING DOWN TO US PLEASE!!!!!!!! #PLEASE IF WE FOCUS WE CAN TALK ABOUT KENT AND COMPARE AND CONTRAST HIM LEAR AND GLOUCESTER #PLEASE THE FIRST TWO ACTS SET UP THE DEVELOPMENT OF THEMES THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE PLAY #PLEASE STOP TEACHING DOWN TO ME THERE'S A REASON THAT EDMUND IS INVOLVED WITH BOTH SISTERS PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU

academic philosophy (and the surrounding family of disciplines) relies on an ignorance of the world to legitimize itself, because as soon as you know what’s going on in the actual, material realm you’ll realize that the “cutting edge” knowledge produced by these institutions is in fact, at best, the obscurantist retelling of shit people finished litigating years ago in their local meetings/zines/literally tumblr

#text #disillusionment never came so quick as when i saw that a cohort-made was publishing a paper #that amounted to the ten thousand word ballooning of what could be summarized in a two paragraph post about apologies

[windwardstar]

i think i've reached the point with this chapter where i've stared at it so much that i'm starting to hate it because i'm only seeing the problems.

unfortunately I'm not even done with the rough draft of all the scenes. much less doing an actual editing pass.

#i get too much in my head and am not good at reminding myself of the good bits of my writing or that it doesn't have to be perfect #i am very good at identifying the problems in my writing and what could be done better and not so good at pointing out the good bits #part of the problem is also that like the two problems right now are kind of mutually exclusive #in that problem one is this chapter is getting bloated and too long and problem two is i'm summarizing a bunch of shit and skimming over #skimming over things in order to cover a lot of ground and time and keep the chapter from getting even longer

[aethersea]

and kencyr beauty and the beast? i remember you talking about this but it's been awhile...

this is one of the many aus @tanoraqui and I have come up with in the kencyrath chat, and honestly it's a banger

The monster was a dark shadow, backlit by some faint glow whose source Kindrie couldn’t guess. Its eyes shone silver from edge to edge, split by slit pupils that were narrowed almost to nothing despite the gloom. Its fangs were too big for its mouth. They distorted its lips into a permanent sneer. 

“Why?” it growled.

Why what? Why should it forgive him? He couldn’t say, because I’m sorry—he wasn’t, despite everything. Better that he should die here than the Highlord.

No good answer to that question; find a better one. Why had he thrown himself into the monster’s path? 

Because he is my natural lord. He couldn’t say that either. He’d never found the nerve to utter the words aloud, and he had no nerve to spare just now.

“Because he’s the Highlord,” Kindrie said. His voice rasped worse than gravel. “I had to protect him.”

The monster hissed at that, like a vicious cat. Kindrie flinched. “Forgive me,” slipped out without thought.

The last of the far echoes died away, leaving them in silence. Kindrie’s labored breaths drew more attention to themselves in that stillness than he would have liked. The monster regarded him balefully, but there was something else emerging from behind that rage. Kindrie tentatively judged it to be curiosity.

He should fan that curiosity, say something intriguing, anything to keep the monster talking. To make himself more interesting alive than dead. But Kindrie’s mind was filled mostly with gibbering panic, and he had no experience at all in being interesting. 

The creature spoke again before he could think of anything. “You will stay.”

The words came out garbled, as if they didn’t quite fit the shape of the monster’s mouth. It took a moment for Kindrie to parse them, and a moment more to understand them. Even then, he could make no sense of them. 

“I will…stay?”

“Swear it,” the monster growled.

Kindrie stared, baffled. The monster roared. “I’ll stay!” Kindrie yelped. “I’ll stay!”

“Honor break me,” the monster snarled, the words gnashing together like boulders.

Something in Kindrie found the space to quail at that. It was one thing to be trapped in the lair of a darkling beast; another thing entirely to never even try to flee. Freedom had tasted so sweet, for the brief time he’d known it. Its pull had borne him through so many horrors.

The monster slammed him against the wall again. His vision swam and flickered.

What point in freedom if he was too dead to enjoy it? “Honor break me,” Kindrie choked out, “darkness take me, I so swear.”

#finx writes #kencyrath #this one would be titled 'kindrie has a bad time' except for how that just doesn't narrow anything down at all #we have one (1) au where kindrie has a perfectly fine and happy upbringing #and that's the hallmark christmas movie au #everything that isn't pure crack? sorry kindrie #this fic is a good 14 pages but I need to reread dark of the moon to sort out some timeline details #before I can post most of it #hmm we could maybe put up the first scene or two though #there's a thought #might do that sometime #anyway this snippet is a bit long I know but it summarizes most of the premise #so #here we go

and the arguments that i have won against you in my head; in the car, in the shower, and in the mirror before bed…

yeah i’m so tough when i’m alone and i make you feel so guilty and i fantasize about a time you’re a little fuckin’ sorry-

and i try to ꪊꪀᦔꫀ𝕣ડ𝕥ꪖꪀᦔ why you would do this all to me. ‘you must be insecure. you must be so unhappy.’

and i try to be tough. but i wanna scream ‘HOW COULD ANYBODY DO THE THINGS YOU DID SO EASILY?’

oh you know what it is actually. the reason that i’m way more willing to talk about me being a bad girlfriend is because i have done a lot to be a better partner and have fought probably the most brutal uphill battle trying to heal from relationship issues in the past so that i can like actually love people better. and i still stumble and fall but i really am trying to be a better friend and partner and everything. 

but i can’t like. say the same of my exes. because you know, i’m not them. which makes it a lot harder to talk about anything they did because, like. i want to believe that they’re better now to anyone that came after me but i don’t know and unfortunately i don’t know if that knowledge would even fix this feeling. 

#nightmare.personal #important thing for people to keep in mind is that something can be a lose lose situation and be traumatic #there doesn't have to be a clear person to blame for a situation to be traumatic #like none of my relationships excluding. one which wasn't romantic. and . okay excluding a few non romantic ones #really had One Person to blame more clearly than the other #a lot of my romantic relationships could be summarized as two people who were going through shit #and both did bad things but both aren't bad people #and that can still be trauma #i think that my ex is a great person at their core but they also traumatized me #and i think that's hared to remember bc a lot of trauma spaces do make things black and white #trauma is complicated and God knows i can talk forever about how complicated #relationship trauma is to navigate and also heal from it's a fucking mess #but just know that you can be traumatized by someone without hating them #you can also be truamatized by people you do hate and never forgive but that's. for a different post

@imarahuyo​ replied ; anyone she can fight in the parking lot

/  U know, the first thing that popped in my mind was Sen and Morgan throwing fists against each other for the dominion of the sea- I’m not gonna go into details over Morgan’s own convoluted and stacked stories that merge with each other and then get discarded and so on and so forth but basically, some early sources that might have contributed to the development of her character throughout history suggest that one of the inspirations that one of the many authors that have included Morgan in their story might have been influenced by this one character who could control the sea through incantations as well as the fishes in the sea; well Morgan’s own personality differs a lot depending on what parts u take and which u don’t, but she can be very petty- in the sense of;; if someone wants something that falls under her rulling, then out of spite she will want to reclaim such thing. Now does she really want that or is she simply bored? there is also a sense of power that is always enticing, so it could be really a bunch more of reasons; or maybe it just becomes routine to fight sen, kinda like tom and jerry- who knows; I think it could be funny
