wondering if these numbers refer to either like stages of being mixed-up or maybe weeks? like this is week five of yoshiki being mixed-up and the right is week one before all of this?

#also his eyes are white on the right and shaded on the left #eye thing totally true #if there were stages I'd imagine we'd learn about them from tanaka and his company #like oh yeah you're reading a 5 on the official ghost nastiness-infected scale. woof um... maybe start making amends soon... #hikaru ga shinda natsu #the summer hikaru died #hgsn #hgsn spoilers #my hgsn shit #not entirely sure how long the stories been taking place over. not very long I'd assume #but I'm also not trying to count how many times yoshiki has gone to bed #it's been more than five times tho I'm sure of that much. #hgsn eyes

sneaking into a stadium during an EDM festival with your boyfriend to throw off the f*ckers that are trying to kill you: 10/10, perfect date night, said boyfriend is having the time of his life

your best friend/academy boyfriend following you into the stadium during the festival bc his gut knows what you're up to but he still wants to make sure to confirm: 0/10, evacuate that gay immediately he's going to get himself f*cking killed

I saw that you said you don’t read much VNC fanfiction, but of what you have read, do you have any recs?

In general, anything by fl4nel is probably an absolute banger imo. I have three (3) user subscriptions on Ao3, and they're one of them. Blood and Thunder is a fandom classic if you want a starting point, but their less popular fics are just as good. Their writing style is absolutely gorgeous, and they nail the sort of tension that good canonverse vanoé fic requires.

I'm also fond of fortuna, choosing sides by leovenus and you're the one (i think i'll regret this) by coffeebiscuits.

It's probably becoming clear by now that my favorite genre of vnc fic is more or less canon compliant oneshots in which vanoé pine and yearn and want each other without ever fully acting on that tension. Unfulfilled yearning that you can't voice would be Vanitas's middle name if he had one. And anyway, both of the above fics do that specific thing very well. There's a certain similar mood that they both capture.

To be entirely honest, beyond that, the vnc fic I read/reread most often is my own An Act of Trust. Might be mildly tacky to self-promo on a rec list, but I unabashedly love that fic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I think it's pretty solid, and if you want a taste of what I like in vnc fic, it's incredibly self indulgent in that regard.

For the rest of y'all, feel free to drop your own recs in the replies. Esp if y'all have recommendations for any good Domi and/or Jeanne centric stuff.

#to be honest I think my standards are kind of high #I'm fussy about characterization by nature. and I've spent 2+ years thinking and writing meta about vnc obsessively #I'm particular about what counts as good characterization #there's a lot of vnc fic I've read that's perfectly enjoyable but doesn't quite make my bookmark list #even an act of trust. it's been about a year since I wrote it and I can very much see its flaws these days #fl4nel owns my heart tho #also in general the majority of my ao3 bookmarks are public #so if you ever want to see what I recommend in a given fandom. that's a starting point #about andie #vnc #fic #vnc fic rec #vanitas no carte #ask #anon

Dove on the Roof, Canon Chapter, 11.111 Words

After the cruise mission, meant to prove their merit as a team but revealing far more to all of them, Sun, Moon, and Y/N are now finally free to explore what dating will entail for them. Except, dates don't always go as planned.

Happy anniversary! Half a year ago, I posted the introduction to Accidentally Undercover on tumblr. Now we're here, in the romance zone after all the obliviousness, officially kicking off the Glamrock arc!

if ozai had a proper backstory/character regarding his family and personality instead of just "ozai = ultimate villain = ultimate evil (literally, like the summation of all kinds of 'evil')" and got more screentime, then it would have made the ultimate lesson of atla as a series more viable, like the zuko redemption arc, that there is no "true black / white" nor "ultimate good / evil"

he was such an 1D character in the series it's so intriguing when ao3 spices up his character

#the comics don't count #they reduced ozai to nothing but an empty hollow being and azula to nothing but a crazed maniac even further #i didn't see it when i read the comics years ago and couldn't understand why they were hated so much #but i think i kinda do now #i don't really hate the comics but now i don't really like them like i used to #ozai #idk but the more i think about it the more he feels like astor but with a firmer foundation of the worldbuilding #but of course the worldbuilding of a story-focused animated series is much stronger and convoluted than the one of a combat-focused game #so do i blorborize him now #idk #i'm currently obsessed with ao3 fics playing around with him tho #that depicts him other than this manipulative power abusive lil shit (well he is but still) #(+ long. long list of ao3 ozai fic recommendations in reblogs) #especially fics where he's a lil shit but without his power #those are really entertaining to read

Yeah I just watched the trailer for Good Omens 2 at least 5 times now. I'm unwell and I'm about to combust.

I'm not gonna survive these 50(?) days, nope. Just nope.

#the cloud can speak oh boi #aND THE FACT THE TRAILER CAME OUT IN JUNE- eating well this pride yep- had the serie itself came out it would've been just too much #ough I wanna see them in action again so baaad #I woke up miserable from last night storyboarding but now I'm radiant- those two dorks are that powerful #only sad thing is that I won't have time to rewatch season 1 at least until half of July or something #... holy shit I can use the episodes as a 6 days count down tho! #OHHHH I'm excited;;

Just Desserts Pets by size (and owner)! (Patreon)

Bonus Joel and the new Bamboo cat-staring each other down:

#Doodles #Just Desserts #I would also say by name and sex but a lot of them are still undecided lol #I'm pretty sure these are all the at-least-somewhat canon pets - Just A Bee for example was omitted lol #Maybe there'll be someone who gets Just A Bee someday! But it's not gonna be Honey&Easter Nest I can tell you that much lol #I do not care how thematic it would be! She gets a bunny! It is the most correct! #Also somewhat ironic that she got a cherry-filled donut bunny and then Cherry Shortcake got the merengue dove... #Look they're not meant to Match they're meant to be What The Owner Wants! #Anyway this has all gotten off the rails lol - down the line! #Starting with the itty-bittiest of spiders! Spider Bites' spider bites ♥ I still love them - probably even more now lol #I never did decide how many she can summon at once since they're not like...properly physical in the same way Taffy is lol #You can touch them and hold them to be certain! But only when they exist (lol) Probably wouldn't be more than a baker's dozen hehehe #The birds ended up being the smallest after the spider(s) huh :0 I wasn't planning that but it seems fitting #I think Merengue (name not decided on but if Wafer is any indication lol) probably is a little smaller than Kiwi's flan chicken #Chicken is chicken-sized but Merengue isn't quite as small as a pigeon - somewhere in the middle #Sunflower is tiny by mammal standards tho! The smallest yet! Even smaller than cinnamouse! #Then again for a mouse cinnamouse is quite large lol - big plush teddy-bear sized! :D #I really do want to get better at drawing dogs... Do Sweet Pea justice one of these days she's such a sweet girl #I still love that she's made of almond BARK white chocolate - so she can lick her own paws hehehe #Konpeitoad is wider than they are tall really - still counts for medium sized just an outlier is all! Still cute tho #They're probably one of the ones I most want to draw digitally as well since I can imagine their colour palette easily haha #Cute purpley and cream toad skin with rainbow konpeito warts and clear bubble-cheeks hehe <3 They're very cute! #Barnaby too - he's got a strong mint colour palette! Lots of greens and whites! Still such a fun and cute lad with all his segmentation #Also finally cleaned up the Mercandy's amezaiku catfish design a bit - better fins! #It's a bit funny as well since Marshmallow Fluff originally had a mint colour palette as well until I simplified her design :P Things! #Wafer's largely unchanged tho ♪ Seeing them near each other I kinda wanna draw him and Sweet Pea playing now hehe ♥ #Finally Taffy! The smallest of the large pets! About what you'd expect for a mammalian farm animal tho I suppose haha #Butterscotch is still so cuuute ahh ;; I can't believe I haven't drawn her more - she has so much room for scalloping! Her earsss #And finally the Queens' pets! They get to be the biggest because they're royalty lol - they already make the biggest creatures! #Oh and I suppose double-finally the Vargases' licorice cat and the new cat! I still hadn't decided on Bamboo's coat pattern...

love that this is like the 4th(?) time that stoker has said ‘lizard fashion’ like the dude came up with that phrase and was like ‘oh this is hilarious i need to use this at every opportunity’  

#dracula daily #dracula #today's entry was a delight tho so much drama lol #also i'm sure some expert on 19th century is gonna say that the count kissing his hand at jonathan is some etiquette thing or whatever #but i can't get the image of him like blowing jonathan a kiss as he gets ready to kill the guy lol #like some kind of sassy diva after having a row w/ someone lol #also the complete pettiness of the count being like 'oh you wanna leave my castle tonight baby boy?? #well go ahead!! there's definitely not a tonne of blood thirsty wolves out there ready to tear u limb from limb :)'

Nearly done with this reread of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, and I had forgotten how much Snow like... actually did love Sejanus? He whines about him a lot in the first half of the book but like... he does really stick his neck out for him a LOT. And even hugs Sejanus when they meet again in District 12! Once they’re peacekeepers together, Snow’s thinking of him shifts from being annoying to being a friend, at least until Sejanus starts hanging out with the rebels. And even then, Snow is extremely conflicted about his decision to record him with the jabber jay; it’s more an instant of panicked self protection then I remembered. He’s definitely burying his head in the sand about the ramifications of what he did right up until Sejanus is arrested (Snow convinces himself that Sejanus’s father will swoop in and save him again, but like come on dude. Definitely just not wanting to accept that his actions will result in Sejanus’s execution) And then later he refers to Lucy Gray as something along the lines of “the only person left he loves”.

Don’t get me wrong, Snow is absolutely 100% at fault for snitching on Sejanus; he just did what he does throughout the entire book. He chooses to save himself at the expense of other people and this the penultimate moment of that that’s been building the entire time. But it really did strike how much he actually cared about Sejanus in this read through. Not that it saved him in the end, but the love was there.

#the ballad of songbirds and snakes #the hunger games #it's been awhile since I first read the book and I was remembering it as a much colder and more calculated move #but like... Sejanus is the reason Snow was able to graduate and his presence helped stop Snow from potentially killing himself #I'm not sure if he actually would have gone through with it but Sejanus's appearance did snap him out of a deep depression #bored badgering #I also forgot what a shitty boyfriend Snow is tho lol #before we get too sympathetic to the guy #he gets like one day with Lucy Gray and almost immediately starts suspecting her of running off with her ex that she hates #and that's not counting all the extremely possessive language he uses about her belonging to him and her being loyal to him #and wanting to kill her favorite birds

i wont do the post game right now bc my mom is a little annoyed i've been on the switch for the whole day. but Man. good stuff i love this game and its dlc so so much

#clai speaks #i dont really have much to add just. i really loved this HFJBFJF #kieran's the best rival we've ever had. if you dont count n of course #my single complaint is uh. terapagos appeared for such a short while got tossed around like salad and then dlc was over BJDBFJ #like damn imagine being terapagos. waking up. getting master balled from behind amd then forced to do battle like that. eugh #the rest was so good! the bb elite four are fun characters and terarium is a fun place to explore #i was going on about it already but RAHHHH UNOVA MUSICCCCC #hopefully people have documented what stellar tera does by now bc uhh. i still dont know lmao #the stellar tera hat is also just a little terapagos thats so cute..... teraing my terapagos to put terapagos on terapagos #i think my favorite part was when drayton suddenly says you can only use terarium pokemon you caught #i was annoyed at first with the prospect of building a whole team from scratch but really all i did was exp candy a few mons #and it was neat going in with a fresh team instead of my prebuilt one! #shell smash white herb acrobatics minior my beloved (it was a blue one named geno btw. hehe) #briar was not a twist villian like i thought tho which i think is better. would have felt cheap if she was i think #anywho. dlc good :) i'm very pleased with how it all went down

#sera polls #I've started replaying and then dropped all three of these games lol but I'm in the mood for some persona #for strikers I was fully liveblogging it and dropped it bc I got tired of sending images to my phone from my switch #so if I resumed the liveblog from where I left off we'd be getting downgraded to low quality pics from my phone #I was in the middle of an Akechi Parallels Count so there's also that #but maybe a strikers replay would be suitable for the summer... #I would start royal over (again (again)) and liveblog to an extent but not as much as I was before #I was replaying tactica for Sumi and goro in the main game but dropped it right when I unlocked them lmao #hmm maybe what I should do is do an epic replay/liveblog of all three. what order tho. chronological or release?? #maybe royal then strikers than tactica? or royal then tactica then strikers? maybe that should have been the poll instead lol #fourth option: all three #reply if you want all three :P #dang I should have written this all out before posting instead of after I would have changed the poll topic
