watching the sdcc panel and i am just very :) about how sweet their answers to “what are some of the micro moments from the game that have stuck with you the most over the years?” are. taliesin saying what the fuck is up with that which was the first like The Party Gets To Know Each Other moments of c3. travis saying asking his wife if he could kiss her in campaign. marisha going way back to the cannonball competition in campaign one. ashley choosing the beauyasha date but also just the silly goat noise matt made. liam adding onto that to compliment matt roleplaying grass so well and then saying his favourite moment was writing a story for laura and reading it to her as caleb for jester. and then matt saying that was his answer, and that his favourite moments of the game are when they find ways to give gifts to each other whether tangible or not. and sam saying his favourite moments have less to do with the story and is more so when he can just. see his friends across the table from him. when marisha perches and when laura and ashley are (badly) drawing dicks and liam saying he loves when sam sneezes and ashley tells him to stop it and just. yeah. they Are an extremely popular online powerhouse, but i’m so happy that they’re also friends building a world together out of gifts to and love for one another.

like i Am so enamoured with the characters and the world of exandria but the moments when you can feel the love that those people have for each other reach out from behind the stained glass of their performances (to steal a metaphor from brennan lee mulligan) are so extremely special and i am endlessly grateful that they decided to share their silly little home game with the world.

#it’s just the. laura and travis’ characters always being supportive of one another when they’re facing hardship #taliesin and marisha consistently making characters who challenge one another and still protect each other relentlessly #all of them being so fond of ashley’s characters always and literally seeing them light up in c1 episodes when ash got to join in person #sam and liam always making characters who offer one another reprieves into kindness that they don’t always get in the campaign setting #liam making orym after falling in love with keyleth as vax #marisha making laudna after matt’s storytelling with delilah and choosing vex as her body double #ashley using ‘i would like to rage’ and matt having kord ask her where she finds her strength #laura and matt always weaving these deeply complicated and emotional interactions between a daughter and a father #the gasps and yells and clapping when matt makes cool sound effects or reveals a map or breaks/ends on a cliff hanger #them ending both campaign 1 and 2 with ‘what a great/nice story’ and travis saying ‘let’s do it again!’#and it’s like. yes yes i love the comics and i’m a fan of tlovm but . seeing this well produced thing that somehow mimics #the feeling i get sitting in my living room laughing with my roommates about my ranger’s giant rat failing to climb stairs #it’s very special it’s very sweet #critical role #sdcc 2023 #taliesin jaffe #travis willingham #marisha ray #ashley johnson #liam o’brien #matthew mercer #laura bailey #sam riegel #cr cast #critical role cast #my posts

Carmilla Carmine Redesign!

#hazbin #hazbin hotel #fanart #redesign #carmilla carmine #hazbin hotel carmilla #I hate her current design #I took more inspiration from her old design bc its way more cohesive and put together #she just looks so much better #her giant claws were so cool #her outfit with the new design sucks #what is it even supposed to be #and her hair horns were kinda cool but they’re literally the size of the rest of her body #and I get her shoes were meant to be an angelic weapon with an actual use instead of just being for show #but they just. looked weird #my art #post

“queer spaces should be inclusive of people who don’t enjoy sex and who have “strange”, negative or repulsed relationships with sex” and “sex is an important aspect of lgbt community, history, and activism and queer people should be allowed and able to talk freely about sex without stigma or shame” are ideas that can and should coexist.

#‘queer people were banned from and shamed for having sex and that’s where a lot of our activism stemmed from’ and #‘not liking or having sex is considered abnormal and a mental illness and also needs to be destigmatized’ are concepts that not only can but #often do coalign #it’s esp important to consider that a lot of lgbt ppl who have a tricky and strained relationship with sex are like that because of trauma #which is very common for queer folks #it’s really not an ace-only thing #like i am sex repulsed but it’s very hard to discern if it’s because i’m asexual or if it’s the trauma. either way i deserve to have those #feelings and be included in lgbt spaces and discussions about sex and treated as just another queer person with a different experience #instead of being alienated because my feelings about sex don’t directly line up with yours #im so sick of people in this community trying to pit us against each other. as an ace lesbian that shit is so toxic and harmful #my relationship with sex is fluid. im sex-positive always‚ but i often find myself sex repulsed. im otherwise neutral about it but im sick #of people acting like it’s either you enjoy sex and have it frequently or you hate it and you shame everyone who has it like youre a puritan #and it’s often aphobes who bought into that ‘aces are puritanical celibate straights who want ppl who have gay sex to die or think they’re #‘dirty’ or some shit. and it was literally 90% crypto-aphobes pretending to be aces to get people to adopt that into their belief system #the same way crypto-t/rfs pretend to be trans women who want to prey on the ‘innocent women’#and y’all will use those posts/screenshots as ‘evidence’ that whatever scapegoat you’ve selected is actually inherently bad/homophobic/#misogynistic/etc and not even #acknowledge the giant hole in your logic cuz you’re too busy trying to find a scapegoat #it’s the same tactics and y’all fall for it every time #text post #like. lesbians are CONSTANTLY getting hounded and told that we’re broken or mentally i’ll for not showing interest in (having sex with) men #for the same reason asexuality is considered bad or wrong or weird #not showing interest in heterosexual relationships or sex is why this is so important #anyone that falls outside the scope of heterosexuality is part of this community whether you like it or not

ooh can you write the story of how Miguel and Petra met 👀

YOU BET YOUR BUTT I CAN

Miguel didn’t quite know how to proceed.

He got warning of an anomaly on Earth 8136, which was odd — there was no record of any spider person there. But it turns out that was the anomaly. There was supposed to be one, but there was no indication that one existed. And now the city was being torn apart.

So he and Jess swooped in to clean up the mess and figure out where exactly 8136’s spider person was. While Jess was taking out the bad guys and making sure the citizens were safe, Miguel was ready to begin a search.

That’s when he sensed them.

It was weird — the sense was there, but it was faint. He had never quite felt that before. He whipped his head and looked around furiously until his senses led him to... a massive pile of concrete rubble.

Underneath his mask, Miguel raised an eyebrow and began to toss back the chunks of rock. He was about to reach for a particularly big slab when something — no, someone — stopped him.

They were whimpering, and Miguel was confused; the rubble pile was relatively small, and it wasn’t enough to keep a regular sized person trapper underneath.

That’s because it wasn’t a normal sized person.

“What the…”

Miguel’s spider senses were really going off now. He slowly peeled his mask off and lifted one more chunk of concrete off, revealing a dirty, shaking, tiny human being.

Petra whipped their arm up, shielding themselves from the light that suddenly flooded their vision. When their eyes finally adjusted, they recoiled. Shit, they were found! How did that even happen? Who could have known they were here?

Miguel didn’t quite know what was going on, but he knew he had to get this tiny out of here, and fast.

“Hey, little guy,” he started, crouching down even further to get closer to them. “My name is Miguel O’Hara. I’m here to save you.”

Petra’s eyes shook in pure fear, their legs and arms trembling so hard that even if they wanted to get up, they couldn’t.

“It’s not safe, I have to get you out of here. Okay?” Miguel said louder, briefly worrying that maybe they didn’t understand him.

Petra blinked the tears out of their eyes before something came over them — something they had never felt before. It felt like alarm bells were going off in their head, but at the same time, they felt… safe. Like they knew this giant somehow.

Petra whimpered as Miguel reached down and scooped up their shaking body. They grabbed onto one of his fingers for support, which instantly made Miguel’s heart flutter. Holding them in two open palms in front of his face, Miguel’s eyes widened as the realization hit him.

“You’re the spider person,” he practically whispered.

Petra furrowed their brow. “What?”

“MIGUEL!” Jess came zooming in on her motorcycle. “We’re all clear. Anomaly’s been taken… care… of.” She stopped dead in her tracks, staring at the tiny form in Miguel’s hand. Her eyes flashed wide.

“You sense it too?”

All Jess could do was nod. “But… how?”

Miguel shrugged, not quite in the headspace to begin answering that question. Besides, it was hard for him to really say much about the tiny when they were right there in his hand, gawking up at him in a mixture of fear and intrigue.

“What’s… happening?” Both giant spider people were surprised to hear them speak. “Who are you?”

“I… we’re… I’m Spider-Man,” Miguel said after a moment of thought. “That’s Spider-Woman.” He nodded to Jess, who gave a small wave. “And you… you’re one of us.”

Petra stared at Miguel like he had five heads.

“Look, I don’t want to do this, but…” he looked over to Jess, his eyes asking the question they both knew the answer to. “You have to come back with us.”

Petra’s eyes widened. “Wh-what? Go back with you where? You can’t — you can’t take me from my home!”

“It’s not much of a home anymore, is it?” Miguel shot back, extending his arm out dramatically to show Petra the full extent of the damage. The tiny surveyed the landscape, full of rubble and shattered glass and broken buildings. There was so much clutter... and it was perfect for an escape.

Petra held their breath, not daring to make eye contact with this mysterious “Spider-Man”. Seriously. What kind of a name was that? They clenched their fists, closed their eyes and ignored the ringing in their ears.

Petra leapt right off his palm.

The wind whipped through their hair as they locked their arms at their side to gain speed. Miguel was so caught off-guard that he could barely react until Petra just about hit the ground. He instinctively shot out a web, but it narrowly missed them, who juked to the right at the last second. Oh god, what was that? Wait. How did I know that was coming?

Petra was going as fast as they could, but all Miguel and Jess had to do was take a few steps to catch up to them. They were soon standing almost right over them, and Jess, not wanting to scare them more than she already had, put one knee to the ground and started to stretch her hand out.

As her hand closed in on Petra, something kicked in that they couldn’t quite explain. They waited until she was practically latched onto them before leaping into the air, settling their feet on her finger and launching themselves off of it, using her momentum to propel them further ahead.

“Holy crap,” Jess breathed as Petra kept running.

Petra looked back, only to see Miguel stomp past her, an annoyed look plastered on his face. Miguel stepped right over them and positioned himself right in their path, bending down and reaching both of his hands toward them.

Petra’s eyes flashed to a gap between two of his fingers, and they jumped through, landing shakily on the back of his hand. Miguel, not at all prepared for that, instinctively twitched his hand up, sending little Petra flying through the air.

They were falling at breakneck speed, but somehow, they were able to gain control of their limbs, tuck into a ball and land safely on the ground. Petra froze for a moment. How the hell did I just do that?

Suddenly, a force struck their ankle, and they fell to the ground. Miguel had used their moment of shock to hit them with a web. Smirking, he yanked them into the air and deposited them into his palm that quickly morphed into a fist.

“NO! NO! LET ME GO!” they screamed, thrashing their arms and legs at the fleshy masses that surrounded them. They weren’t even sure Miguel could feel it.

“Get us out of here,” they heard him sneer at Jess. In an instant, the sound around them began to warp, like it was being played through a broken record player. A low grumble soon turned into a deafening roar as Miguel stepped through the portal.

It was like Petra was being ripped to shreds, but couldn’t feel a thing. It felt like hours, but in reality, the feeling subsided in the blink of an eye. They stayed in darkness as Miguel marched angrily to his computer platform, ready to get to the bottom of this.

By the time he unfurled his fingers, Petra was on their hands and knees, not used to the wobbling and jolting nature of being carried by a giant. They gasped when their eyes adjusted to the light, looking around frantically but not being able to identify a single thing they saw.

Well, almost nothing. When their gaze met Miguel’s, they scrambled to the back of his palm before slamming into his fingers, stretched far up like trees. This time, Petra had nowhere to run.

“Where are we? You-you can’t keep me here!” Petra tried. Miguel’s face remained stoic. “Come on, you can’t just—just abduct me! I—you took me from—“

“Your home is gone,” Miguel said flatly, like it was a foregone conclusion. Petra’s face twisted into shock at his bluntness. “And even if it wasn’t… you…” he heaved a sigh, pinching the brim of his nose with his free hand. Petra wasn’t sure how, but they could feel how distressed he was. “Look, kid, I don’t really have a good explanation yet, but you have to hear me out, okay?”

Petra nodded. They didn’t have much of a choice.

“Me and Jess,” he jerked his head toward the woman standing with her arms folded in the corner, “and everyone else here, we were all bit by a radioactive spider that gave us our powers. Superior strength, sticking to anything, we shoot webs from our hands, we’re agile… there’s a lot of things we can do.”

Petra was stunned, and Miguel couldn’t help but soften at their expression. This kid… they didn’t know anything.

“And… and you’re saying that I…”

“…am one of those spider-people,” Miguel finished. “You can do extraordinary things… uh… I never got your name, kiddo.”

“Um, Petra. It’s Petra.”

Miguel grumbled. Why did they always have to be a version of the name Peter?

“Well, Petra. My name’s Miguel O’Hara.” He wasn’t sure if his introduction had registered in their brain back on their Earth. “And let me just say, for someone who has no idea what they’re capable of, you almost managed to escape me back on 8136.”

Petra blushed. Why did they care so much about what this man thought of them?

“Wait.” Something caught their attention. “Back on… where?”

“8136. That’s your Earth,” Miguel explained.

“My Earth? What are you talking about?”

Miguel closed his eyes and let out a breath. This was going to be more work than he thought.

“I’ll explain everything, okay? You just have to promise not to run away.” His face darkened. “Trust me, it won’t end well for you.”

Petra gulped, but ultimately, they had to concede. They didn’t know where they were, had nowhere to escape to and frankly, they kind of wanted to stay. Miguel was right—there was nothing for them back home. And these powers he claimed they had… they wanted to know more.

“Alright, Miguel O’Hara,” Petra finally said, feigning confidence they really didn’t have. “I guess I have no choice.”

“No, you really don’t,” Miguel said halfheartedly, with no bite on it at all. “I wish it didn’t have to be this way, kid. If we could save every world, well, we would. But we can’t.” He looked down at them, no longer shaking, but still apprehensive. This was uncharted territory for Miguel, but if he was certain of one thing, it was that he knew it was his responsibility to keep this tiny spider-person safe at all costs.

“I’m glad to give you a home here, though.”

#i think im in love with petra #me with the character i literally created: gosh they’re so cool i wish we were friends #methinks i might want to write them more…#miguel has a soft spot for this little chaos tiny #thank you for this request!!#obwrites #asks #spiderverse spoilers #g/t #giant/tiny

the best part about logan in season 4 is that tom wambsgans and his pet dog gregory hirsch are his allies. like thats so fucking funny. you thought your kids were annoying, logan? you haven’t seen anything yet. if he doesn’t die of health problems he’ll definitely be killing himself

#tom might be smart but hes an acquired taste #a taste only gay people can handle #greg is literally just a giant loser (she says lovingly)#and together they’re dynamite… dynamite for logan’s demise #or at the very least his mental demise #team roy siblings for who I actually root for #as always and this will never change #but oh boy am I team tomgreg for entertainment and homosexual purposes #its truly delightful #succession #tomgreg

Still thinking about the conversation I had with my roommate’s bf like two weeks ago where he said he was scared of furries but also didn’t even know enough about furries to know they were called furries I had to figure out wtf he was talking about. The urge to become a full blown furry now. Despite having all the makings of a furry I for some reason have never ended up enthusiastically becoming one despite my best efforts. Well. With spite as my motivator here we are. Where are the furry artists, I’m commissioning both my tentative ideas for my fursonas. I’m inviting all my friends who are furries over and we’re gonna work on making fursuits. I will also make this a hostile living situation for you AND I will get the added bonus of doing fun furry stuff

#during the same conversation he very heavily insinuated he thought I was a cringey weirdo in the most derogatory sense #by making fun of most of my hobbies and calling ppl who liked them cringey weirdos #but then going ‘oh! oh no! I don’t mean you though you’re fine you’re like Normal 😀’#so. you know.#anyways last night I walked in the door from work #and the entire apartment smelled like weed and there was a dog barking at me and he was watching tv SO loud #🙃🙃🙃 sensory overload immediately in main part of apartment so I hid in bedroom all night #I’m also irritated cuz I’ve had convos with my roommate about weed FOREVER ago #literally my one ask was if he was gonna smoke he do it outside so the apartment doesn’t smell like it #idc if you smoke and you are free to do edibles/dabs/whatever inside just pls don’t smoke joints #I hate the smell and it’s bad for the animals #so why is it 🙃🙃🙃 all of a sudden happening again as this guy moves in 🙃🙃🙃#anyways about to become a revenge furry and also suuuuuper fucking cringey just to bother/embarrass him #esp cuz he said he wants to have friends over all the time which I’m also FUDJDJSJSKSK about #but sure! invite friends over!#I’m gonna sit in the living room with my giant easel and draw furries and listen loudly to vocaloid while they’re here 🥰#I’m gonna have a great time! you won’t tho lmao #kaz rambles

so what im getting is that it was absolutely unnecessary to isolate raffi on gotham city in order for her story to go on.

a story that’s so halfhearted that five episodes in—halfway to the end. btw—her motivation is yet to be explained (why go back to this sector of intelligence work when teaching seemed to be fulfilling? was she made to do this?? did she volunteer because her son now lives on this planet now apparently?? was losing elnor cris and possibly seven so painful that burying herself in work seemed like a better option??? who knows! not me!!) and it’s definitely a retreat character-wise but the fact that they still haven’t laid the groundwork to make this stick is kind of amazing lol. it’s the way they’re not even pretending to give a fuck about her or any of the other women characters for me—they said you’re a womb or a subordinate ladies pick one and shut the hell up LMAO?

the fact that the ‘real plot’ is happening on that other ship while everything raffi does is basically an afterthought with backstory slipped in between the cracks like aged caulk is so disheartening and pathetic. star trek picard make an effort maybe. she’s a polarizing character that’s been stuck in impossible situations, weighed down with retractions and stereotypes (they thread the line but HM) because the narrative continually refuses to meaningfully engage with her and a lot of fans of the show wont examine their own biases to see why they have such a viscerally negative reaction to a complicated black woman character that’s good at what she does, knows it and refuses to kneel at the foot of their hero’s :)

and if it wasn’t for ms hurd elevating this performance with sheer will, massive talent and the whip of that (sexy) ponytail? shit would be so much worse. but it’s still bad! because instead of giving her a nuanced, thoughtful send off she’s once again being made to suffer for the nth time. because why? oh right so wise man worf can guide her to the light lol give me a fuckin break.

and it’s no accident that if you cut raffi out (which they literally did in ep4 miss musiker you WILL be avenged) the story could more or less proceed as usual. that’s by design.

because legacy characters or not, im simply not buying that the main white cast members (plus two interlopers idgaf about those new guys and they’re doing nothing to make me care either. pick a random channel and their stories are being told right now live and in color like don’t piss me off) just so happen to be on the ship with the lead yet the sole woc is sent away on some underbaked adventure because ‘reasons?’ please. this season literally could not be more transparent about the audience they’re catering to and who/whose stories are of importance and consideration.

and i knew this would probably happen once the premise for s3 was revealed but i still can’t get over how obvious it is that there really was no plan for raffi and that she only happened to bypass the cull of the la sirena crew because she was romantically linked with seven at the time. which is baffling considering how things are (not) going between them (#theyareMARRIEDletthemTALKandKISSandREST)

and it’s not just them like everything about this season is quite literally happening just because. every slightly interesting or fresh development (and character it’s true) from the previous seasons has been dismissed or diminished and for what? secret sons and man pain? ew lmao. no suspense no lingering threads just excessive shots of ships, an aggressive insistence on biological families and rampant, shameless references to past glory. a mess.

#doing everyone so dirty but it’s fine because ‘familiar faces’ yeah okay 👍🏾#like can we all be serious for one second lol #they’re not even trying.#at least if this season was good i would somewhat understand why they snapped my faves out of existence but it’s literally not #feels insane to see so many people praise this #is this really where we are as an audience? nostalgia = good? really?#and the new characters they chose to add? come on #no space for rios but yall had space for TWO random white guys?#a christmas miracle!#like the kid is one thing but captain crunch ? they’re playing in my FACE #like i don’t even have any firm feelings about him because he’s pretty much a giant bore but #seeing all these allowances being made for him because of what he looks like whilst raffi continues to get shit on irks me so bad #like i knew it would happen ive been alive in the world lol but still #unsurprising but irritating af that captain crunch can sulk around in all his dickheaded glory #and it’s fine because he’s gods most traumatized baby boy but let raffi lash out once and it’s questions about her competence #and calls to have her removed like oh what’s the difference i wonder #‘men can laugh while a woman can only chuckle’ -godforbid she be black and self assured- like that person was preaching i fear!#if this sounds bitter it’s because i am <3 #michelle hurd deserves so much better like someone pls get her a five season dramatic series on a prestige network asap!#looks at this dissertation i just wrote oops ain’t mean to rant like that but they forced my hand 😭#now to watch raffi’s spar scene on loop and forget about the show until thursday comes around and rattles my cage again lol #raffi musiker #.rfi #stpk
