Vivid Shadows is over but I had a cool idea for day 3 I didn't get to do in time so I decided to go back and do it and now I'm cheating a lil bit so have this

#valkyrie #art #vivid shadows #character art

[puppyeared]

personal character design headcanons + brainrot

Note: the re-bound!au does NOT belong to me, it belongs to @chipper-smol I’m just not normal about it lol

#I SAY PERSONAL BC ITS MY OWN SPIN ON IT. NOT CHIPPERS CANON UNLESS THEY DECIDE TO OR NOT YOU HEAR ME /LH #I made a banner and everything this time. PLWEASE send them your questions not me JAJFHDSF #I thought it would be cool if macaque has two separate forms as a shadow and inside a mindscape. like I wanted his shadow form to reflect #him in his prime and then the mindscape form as what he looked like when he died. or a more vulnerable state at least #based on LBD appearing to MK as the ivory lady when she died in the S3 special. I don’t know exactly what it was but my first thought seein #the white void was she was appearing to MK in his mindscape to talk to him. so I built on that #I wanted to give him a more ‘Smokey’ look as a shadow just based on how he manipulates them in the show like in shadow play. I hope this #makes it look cool and immaterial. and then his mindscape form would be more battered up and tangible #the last couple images are chippers ideas though since they said the monkeys are drawn to MK when macaque is possessing him lol #and the fact that macaque doesn’t have any senses unless he’s possessing someone + literally sniffing out wukong in the scroll 🤨📸 #I also have a vivid image of macaque moving from the mindscape to physical form like umm. kind of like when he passes the boundary between #physical and spirit/mind(?) it’s like the shadow covers him like ink. or pulling Saran Wrap over your face and it clings to your skin #so it kind of makes the shadow seem like a sort of shell or covering.. and I love the idea of MK meeting macaque in the mindscape for the #first time too. like the moment mac rescues him from LBD and MK sees him all battered and tired looking brooooooo #I’m not even sure if that would count as a mindscape but it rattles around in my brain like loose marbles #god I fucking love this au. gives me imagination fuel swear to god #my art #doodles #lmk #Lego Monkie kid #Monkie kid #lmk au #re-bound!au #rebound au #lmk sun wukong #lmk swk #lmk macaque #lmk six eared macaque #lmk mk #lmk xiaotian

[puppetmaster13u]

have a very early wip of a tea party :>

This is @phoenixcatch7 's Possessed Doll Au

#idk why but I was hit with the vivid image of the puppets holding a music box that guides whoever they're calling to down through the caves #Each song different yet the same for each of them #Behold Bruce's first time to the Dollhouse lol #Idk if it's canon to Phoenix's but honestly I like to think that the first doll Bruce encountered was the one that'd eventually be robin #Since he was a child when he fell down in the well and into the tunnels beneath #batman au #bruce wayne #possessed doll au #possessed puppet au #sketch #art #First time down there it's more cave like but as time goes on it shifts #Some of it from them working on stuff and others on its own #The table getting longer and larger as the family grows even if not there yet #The puppets know when to emerge from the shadows and join the others at the table #I like to think the patriarch puppet is damaged the first time Bruce goes down #maybe mimicking a certain father's wounds before he died but maybe not still debating that #god i love this au #Honestly their eyes are empty like sockets because they don't have the lights or glass yet #just darkness :)

Okay so Sonic Prime was basically a weird game of seven minutes in heaven, right? Kissing may not have been involved but everything else sure was.

#Sonic prime: ends #Sonic & Shadow: So I guess that character development never happened huh. #NUH UH- #we got...so much sweet sweet character and relationship development #no way im letting that go #srls. on so many levels #not just sonic and shadow #but obv they had a pretty interesting role #thank u prime for not making shadow a one-facet angst prompt generator #they gave him JOKES #they gave him SASS #and most of all they gave him a very vivid sense of protection #which? made me scream. because FINALLY. #god. thats what he was made for. thats what shadow is sort of ABOUT #and sonic prime really went and gave him the role of..well. sonics shadow. lol. #NOT derogary in meaning. just that he covered the spaces where sonic had trouble with #man their relationship is so interesting #especially in this version of themselves that prime has given them #id watch so many episodes worth of this. #anyway. tags #my art #art post #sonic #shadow #sonic prime #sonadow #am I wrong #sonic prime spoilers #sonic spoilers #sonic prime season 3

Came back simply just to say FUCK project sekai's twitter fandom and their annoying ass gang of people who pretend to know what good writing is ❤️

Like the way I knew how this event would gain the same reactions as LUTF these guys are so predictable it's not even funny

Oh my goodness. I dreamt TLSP was announced and we saw the cover of the album and it was sort of wrestling themed and it was platinum blond Miles and Alex had his vampire hair. I wish there was an AI generator for your dreams so I could share it

#it was so vivid #tlsp 3 #alex turner #miles kane #the last shadow puppets

Summary:  

It had become a certainty in Aleksander's mind - that the concept of Alina always had a Mal attached to it. They were soulmates in every sense of the word. A realization that should have allowed him to come to terms with his feelings for her, but had instead - in an act of complete betrayal - provided him with unexpected new fantasies of them both.

Chapters: 1/1 Words: 6580

Relationships: The Darkling/Mal Oretsev/Alina Starkov

13 - Familiar

Every time she went under the needle she became less herself and more something else. She could feel it in sinew pounding to a primeval beat, in skin prickling with unfamiliar heat before erupting in forms alien to her. The abominable elegance of it all did nothing to sate her turmoil.

She knew it should terrify her, but how could it when it made her heart race so rapturously, when it made her feel so alive? How could anything bother her after the needle was laid down for another day and that most important of all the world's voices graced her ear with its silken promise:

"You're going to be so perfect~"

Have been struck with ideas about post-Chainbreaker War Art in Upepwani / Swatili, and they are not letting ago.

Also, Gustav being an absolute fucking nerd about all of it, because I love my nerdy boi

#basically: unconventional and almost entirely one-off methods and styles used only by a handful of artists #who grew up under the shadow of the war #things like how the subjects are framed as if from a very 'on the ground' sort of perspective #[the defining political speeches of their day for example] #or what they choose to show #all very vivid and surreal #I don't do this social commentary shit often but know it lives rent free in my mind

                              @theaterism​​   /    continued.

wren couldn’t say what their dream had been about.   it had dispersed like smoke parts for a swinging hand, yet they knew bits of reality had slipped into it as well, a fleeting dream that had started wren into wakefulness, bleary and disoriented.   something moved beside them, twisted and groaned.

wren was on their feet in moments.   light spilled across the room as they flicked a lamp, allowing themself to take in foxtrot’s shape: tangled in blankets like an acrobat with no grace, he jerked and gasped in ways that sent wren’s heart pounding.   they reached for him, an unrestrained instinct, calling his name---only realizing their mistake when tearful eyes stared right through them and trembling hands smacked them away.   wren’s heart skipped a beat, but they remained, and his apologies fell on deaf ears.

“it’s okay!   it didn’t hurt, it’s okay.   god, i---  are you okay?”

their entire body ran on electricity.   a million thoughts raced through their mind at once, of things they ought to do or say on top of things they should not do or say, but at last they climbed onto the tumbled sheets to brush his cheek.   it was sleek with sweat; he was drenched, drowning.  “d’you want me to get you anything?   water, or tea, or---?”

(ALSO i looked back at another dorian lore post and idk if it's on purpose or not but)

the poetry of the first crest bearer having been a servant who rose in rank to honorary noble, and for dorian to have been a servant until his crest was discovered so he was elevated to noble...

>:3c hehehe i thought it made for a nice little bow on the whole thing

especially bc for the first ~four years of his life dorian was running around places decorated with paintings and full of tapestries of the family lineage while his mother worked, none the wiser about his connection

#asks #mutual chatter #oc tag: dorian #i had a very vivid thought of him playing with a raggedy stuffed dragon toy under an old portrait of constantine (face in shadow) #and his mother comes upon him and takes him off to bed
