Lumiere's Sick Day: Pages 14-16 Prev | Next

Anxiety anxiety anxiety… what can you do

Because these pages were kinda challenging both writing and layout-wise, I'd written an excerpt to hopefully explain a bit more as i don't think i expressed it too well through dialogue??

“Cogsworth still fears something bad will happen again. The psychological toll of living 10 years under the curse doesn’t just disappear overnight after all. He feels guilty that he isn’t as quickly well adjusted to normality as everyone else has, and at the same time doesn’t understand how everyone can easily forget about what just happened. This random incident of Lumière falling ill had completely frightened him- even though he didn’t catch anything serious. Although he knows in a practical sense that this is unlikely, Cogsworth still fears in his heart a repeat of the curse, or something akin, to creep up on the castle once again. During this fragile period where he is still processing things at his own pace, Lumière’s sudden collapse had caused him to spiral, with his anxieties confirming his greatest fears for just a moment; targeting his best friend as punishment. Cogsworth wishes he could stop worrying and instead celebrate this new, refreshing era with his friends, but that doesn’t come easy when you’re wired to hold a deep protectiveness to the castle and everyone in it… and a learned sense of security to the person who’s been closest by your side through it all.

Lumière is the one that’s hurt, why is he so calm about this? He’s treating it as if it's nothing. Why doesn't he care about how the others feel about his situation? Why am I reacting so much? I wish he could just get out of his own head. So selfish…”

Also here's the rose bush detail in page 15! I like how it came out but it got covered by text lmao

#beauty and the beast #batb #disney #cogsworth #lumiere #lumiere's sick day #lumiworth #comic #artz #yay i got it done #not my motivation waning at the climax of the damn comic #I WILL FINISH THIS SERIES THAT IS A PROMISE #WE'RE SO CLOSE TO THE END #im sorry cogsy pookie pie its for the plot #Mwahahaha #part of why this took long is bc i was overthinking how to write all of this #questions comments whatever are literally always welcome

Before I ask my question, I want to make it clear that this isn't intended to be a hate thing. I'm simply curious.

How did you get into the Lambert x Rodrigue ship? I'm still relatively new to the Fire Emblem fandom and haven't gone completely through Three Hopes, so maybe that's why I don't understand the ship? I mean. It's really cute, and your art is adorable, but my only question is why? Did they have a certain interaction that was brought up that made you go "yes!" about the ship? Or was it just a "Hey. It would be cool to ship these two so fuck it. Why not?" No matter how you answer, it's completely valid. I just want to try to understand the ship a bit better.

Because I'm a sucker for the King & his most loyal companion trope -- the homoeroticism of it is compelling to me.

But if you must really know the nitty gritty -- Rodrigue himself talks quite often about Lambert in both 3Houses & Hopes to the point where you can basically make a drinking game out of it ( and probably end up absolutely trashed or dead )

#lambert only really appears in one scene #in 3Houses but you can kinda tell he and Rodrigue are close #and Lambert trusts him wholly to the point where he had him promise to look after his son #if something were to ever happen to him #and rodrigue takes it the whole 1000 yards man #true ride and die there #and i know rodrigue is married and all #but they're fictional regardless #and we're here for a good time not a long time #:: koko speaking!

in defense of my own happiness [12/18]

pairing: ava/beatrice summary: You let yourself be led from the car into Jillian’s villa, from the front door to a conference room with the remaining Sisters, where you sit down in a chair and try to stop yourself from counting everyone in the room. There are fewer people here than there should be, for many reasons. // or: beatrice (and later, ava) in the aftermath of season two

previously

//

Ava’s third door comes easier than the first two. She still doesn’t step through it right away.

She had puzzled for a moment over where to focus her energy—there are too many things she doesn’t know about the Earth as it exists at the moment. Certainly any building that she might have walked in is long-gone; maybe even the concept of Spain doesn’t exist anymore. She doesn’t know how to pinpoint a planet she’s no longer familiar with, let alone any singular location upon it.

But she remembers how it felt to be alive—more than almost anything else from her short stint as the Warrior Nun, Ava remembers that; the enveloping, overwhelming muchness of being alive. She closes her eyes and thinks of the beach, the scorch of sand beneath her feet during the day or the soothing chill it offered at night. She takes a deep breath and remembers the tangy smell of saltwater, breathes again and contrasts it with the refreshing crisp of their lake in Switzerland. It was everyone’s lake first, but it was their lake then, and it will be their lake every time they visit it after. Ava takes a moment just to imagine that—a summer day with Beatrice floating in the water and Ava running on top of the surface around her, flicking her cheeks with droplets every so often just to remind Beatrice, who certainly hasn’t forgotten, that she’s still there.

She lets that linger before she returns to the task at hand.

badly editing qcellbit into homestuck because we are not done yet: day 57

It looks to be just a normal chest. You open it to see what’s inside. There are two things in the chest: a LASSO, and a CHAINSAW.

they should let us write "popular" style articles at work more often i frankly think i could become phenomenal at this

#it's for an online atlas project so we're being let off the leash. i am This close to making jokes abt. fissures #and their shapes and the things flowing from them. but i shan't #also i PROMISE these two things are related i'm not just trying to be funny. the actual funny bitch was cowper #for being so depressed & british that he witnessed those weather conditions & went ''this is our fault. god hates us. for doing slavery'' #''as opposed to establishing the Good And Morally Correct God-Endorsed Colonial Empire that i personally envision'' #''did i mention we've got the apocalypse tomorrow? and do you want to hear about my pet bunnies'' #good times all round i didn't think i'd say this post-thesis but this work is so FUN

[thelawsofdaylight]

ok i've done it i've sorted my life out. new chapter of roads SOON. extended ao3 version of that one enjolras/feuilly protest meet cute SOON. random document in my drafts folder titled 'ExR squat smut' SOON. long overdue bahorel chapter of a capacity for affection... maybe not soon but definitely WORKING ON IT.

#at least two of these (one being roads) will be done by the end of the week that is a PROMISE #have to hold myself accountable and do it before i start working on the holiday exchange otherwise roads won't be updated until next year #and it's so so so close to being done. i don't know why i've got such a block with it. literally a few more paragraphs and we're there #(the squat smut is ridiculous btw. really very silly. BUT it will serve as my first E rated fic so. get ready for that i guess)

[snekdood]

its so telling how terfs supposed fucks about women just kind devolves into bullying trans people, it’s almost like you use that as a guise for your desire to just be fuckin bullies, prolly bc you were bullied by girls who were better than you growing up :/// unfortunate

#i promise! this is not making you get anywhere close to as good as those girls lmao. #good luck thought. maybe some day. keep dreaming. in your house. alone. without the touch of another being. for years...... #though* but honestly. good luck thot #how do you not make a single shitting point toward terf ideology and still think you're right. #im convinced none of theseidiots actually know what they're fighting for. they LITERALLY just unify under the hate of trans ppl #and thats it #they literally never actually argue for their points. and when they pretend to they just overwhelm you with terf shit so that you shut up. #they dont actually even care about trying to convince any of us. they care about trying to make us Look Bad and Cringe #bc thats the only way they know how to socially control non trans ppl into thinking we're bad. #they dont have any real arguments. they dont do anything based on facts. they never actually have a point or have a debate #nothing. never. #literally just bullying and negging and trying to over power you and over whelm you into giving up. #and yall aren't just the same as the nazis? like. theres a reason they were there at that terf rally you fucking dense fucks #but yeah pretend you care about women at all lmao #we all know you dont. and at this point im curious if yall are even cis women or no-life transphobic nazi adjacent cis men in disguise #like yall could just be kiwifarmers or something for all i fucking know. ya look and act the same.

Perhaps… if ancient husks of gold created from murdered souls can house the spirit of a pharaoh, read minds, or try to predict the future, then why couldn’t time start rewinding itself around a fixed point to create a vacuum of personal torture? Physics be damned.

Now that he can let himself accept that, then what’s left is to figure out how to break the vacuum.

actually what is it with people on instagram and theorising about michael's sex life (???) when he was a teenager on 5sos' post?? some people just go wild with comments and are lucky they're not blocked but also. quite frankly ruining it for the rest of us

#not gonna say what the rumour is bc as far as i can see only one person is behind it #and in the unlikely event that it's true it's none of our business and we have a responsibility to stay out of it. also topic change #i understand we want michael safe and happy too; however slamming his wife on instagram comments is not going to help #in the event that something bad was happening. bc it neither offers autonomy or support just something for him to double down on #if he even hears what people are talking about #and for the people who are concerned. comment that you love michael content. that he should get to do this more!! tell him he seems so happ #doing producer things and having time to get away and that we love him. that's about all we're in the position to do and we don't know what #it's like behind closed doors or anything. and so assuming and putting it in THEIR OWN COMMENTS is not going to help anything i promise you #but a positive response if you get enough people together is always going to be felt. and everyone needs that especially in bad situations #and plus if you've read the situation wrong. this way you won't be embarrassed later

I'll be closing reqs at the end of this week (17 Mar), so please request now while you can! 🫂

I'll try to complete all these, then write some self-indulgent fics (not listed here) before reopening reqs again, so who knows how long it'll take 🫨

#but if we're gonna be fr if you send a req while my reqs are closed and i rlly like it... ill probably write it 😭😭 #i am not immune to good ideas 😓 #and if it has mi/tzu or da/tzu then.... you know i would fight tooth and nail before ever considering letting u down.. #everything else out of this criteria i will unfortunately reject though 😞😞 but i love all of u i promise 😞🫂

gamers the game is gaming

we got the first ever betatester of this version of kenikari! he spotted a lot of spelling errors and genuinely gamebreaking flaws which. honestly thank god he picked them up now and not later when the game is fully launched

Also i miraculously managed to solve a really glaring error in the sorting minigame which might actually explain a lot of people who, when playing the demo, got stuck in that part. sorry yall that one's on me

thank you betatesters i love you betatesters

#game dev #game development #update #also he had some really interesting theories that he made upon seeing like. one singular piece of obscure(?) evidence #i won't say if he's right or wrong. just that it was very very interesting :) #he hasn't played it to the end tho so when he does we'll see if he makes any more theories #i should prob send the game for more people to test actually #but yeah progress is going great! #i won't make any promises on the release date but we're so close

the fact that throughout writing my regulus pov wip (with reg having huge crushes on lily and james) i've went from being barty (the teasing little shit) to being regulus (the poor boy too in love to think straight) is so humiliating

#the only difference is his crushes are reciprocated #and he's also found smart people to have a crush on #my boy dumb as hell #but he's my boy :( #(he probably doesn't remember my name) #fic: be still my foolish heart (don't ruin this on me) #I PROMISE YOU IT WILL BE POSTED ONE DAY #WHEN THAT DAY IS I DO NOT KNOW #the word count is about 10k rn and i'm guessing it'll be around 50-60k at most #sooooo we're not close to finishing it at all :D #nymph rambles

[taegularities]

so i'd like to know your opinion. this won't decide things 100%, but i thought i might ask!

i'm definitely posting c&f3 next. but–

i could give you guys cmi8 right after c&f's final chapter. buuut, then i'd post the milestone fic (heaven to you) after that, and then cmi9. the main storyline would be interrupted, and cmi8 ends in quite a cliffhanger :')

or. i could post the milestone fic first and then do cmi8 and cmi9 back to back (and then the next chapters and so on). you'd get cmi a bit later, but would wait less for cmi9. and break from the angst between c&f and cmi !!

come and talk to me about it if you like mwah 😚

#i was gonna wait to do this poll bc it might be too soon but 😚 #i'll ask again when we're close to posting so let's see !! #wanna know what you think but can't promise anything !! will see how it works out :D #polls

Chapters: 3/? Fandom: Danny Phantom, Batman - All Media Types Rating: Not Rated Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence Relationships: Danny Fenton & Damian Wayne, Batfamily Members & Danny Fenton Characters: Danny Fenton, Bruce Wayne, Tim Drake, Damian Wayne, Alfred Pennyworth Additional Tags: Good Sibling Damian Wayne, Angst, Angst with a Happy Ending, Danny Fenton and Damian Wayne are Twins, Danny Fenton Needs A Hug, Implied/Referenced Torture, Implied/Referenced Child Abuse, Not Phantom Planet Compliant (Danny Phantom), Bad Parents Jack and Maddie Fenton, Gun Violence, Blood and Violence, Gunshot Wounds, Mugging, Medical Torture, Vivisection Summary:

“If you ever find yourself in danger, go to Bruce Wayne. He will help you.”

His mother had loved him, in her own way. If she hadn’t, she wouldn’t have helped him escape. If she hadn’t, she would have dragged him back to the League of Assassins, to Grandfather. If she hadn’t, he’d be dead.

She loved him, but she loved the League more.

Jack and Maddie Fenton loved him too, they did, but they loved their work more.

They loved their work more.

--

After his parents react poorly to his reveal, Danny escapes to the only person he thinks can help him - Bruce Wayne. He doesn't know what to expect when he gets there, but it has to be better than where he is, surely? He certainly doesn't expect to be reunited with his long lost twin brother Damian. It's funny how things work out that way.
