I just started reading the svsss volumes (and re-read them again because A LOT IS GOING ON) but like. This shit is so hysterically funny I don't even know where to begin.

Was no one????? Going to tell me that one of the cornerstone jokes in the damn series is that lbh's adoration for his one and only 'tism person who literally cannot express his emotions to save his life is basically genetic?????????

Was no one???? No one AT ALL going to tell me that Mobei-Jun straight up yeets Airplane at the problem in one of the scenes?????? And that in the most hilarious twist of fate Airplane then unyeets Mobei-Jun not twenty minutes later?????

It's one thing to see people joke about sqq and lbh being unable to communicate but it's on a league of its own when you have to read HUNDREDS OF PAGES of sqq's inner monologue be like 'that's my darling boy. my baby. my sugar plum pumpy umpkin you're my sweetie pie' but on the outside he says "get lost binghe" and somehow deems that an effective expression of his affection that lbh will surely understand. 'Why is lbh whining and crying and tugging at my sleeve like a plaintive wife, why is he so angry?' Sqq asks, the entire circus, as lbh is about to fling himself off a cliff for attention--

In short, MXTX is the queer comedian of our generation and nobody appreciates her enough

#svsss #bingqiu #shen qingqiu #luo binghe #mxtx what must it be like to carry the gays on your shoulders like this #she ran so that the rest of us could walk oh my actual god #i just can't get over how much of the novels are sqq panicking because he needs to 'do right' by lbh #aka make lbh the absolute lunatic from the original #so its just this uproarious back and forth between a guy trying to make a bbg desperate for his love into a human weapon #AND make himself disappear before that weapon is turned on him (also probably the self-hatred talking) #amazing showstopping spectacular **slaps sqq's back** you can fit so many repressed internalizations of toxic masculinity in this mf #legit as i read these volumes i just kept thinking of that meme like 'congrats sqq buddy that's the worst anyone's ever done it' (joke) #not that lbh is any better but in fairness the lad is going through a lot too so i spare him too harsh a judgement #also sincerely i dont think i was prepared for just how stupid how crazy lbh goes for sqq. it was. MAGNIFICENT #I was like 'surely he isn't that dramatic' and then by god everyone. by god I started reading and went #'jesus christ that's a nuclear missile shaped little meow meow and that's HILARIOUS' #i also just can't get over sqq insisting 'IM NOT GAY. I DONT GAY. IM THE STRAIGHTEST STRAIGHT!!!!' #while. literally. saying full stop to lbh of like 'wym i smile more genuinely at everyone else they're just scarecrows around me' #sqq--the man who couldn't bear to see lbh suffering as a young boy. #who was so affected he was crying in his sleep and calling out lbh's name over and over #ON WHAT LEVEL IS THAT HETEROSEXUAL SQQ. THE JIG IS UP #literally EVERYONE around sqq being like 'congrats on being the last to know' about his love for lbh #and can we talk about sqq being like 'we used to communicate so seamlessly that we had no need for words. there was no greater joy for me.' #and highlighting that though gongyi xiao was a similar and talented young lad he fell decidedly short because he did not have above quality #and then sqq still being in denial; i swear i LOVE the little hints mxtx drops i feel like the happiest mouse scampering around for crumbs #additionally a question: how does anyone take liu qingge seriously #when he's displeased he just yells 'HEY' and does nothing about it (most times) #that is the most boomer dad energy i think i've ever seen #also :(((((((( all the jokes about tianlang-jun (though accurate) were so deceptive my heart was broken at the end of vol.3

Sad Boy Hours: Billy Batson

He's trying so hard to get the screaming adults in the room to just stop screaming at each other and be reasonable.

He is immediately dismissed and storms off, justifiably insulted.

And Billy goes right back to blaming himself, trying to figure out where he went wrong, how he could have fixed things, managed the emotions of the room better--even though he is 100% correct and the adults are absolutely failing, and badly.

"Even if he's wrong...I should respect him." Honey, the thing that's eating at you is the absolute dogshit way they act and then expect you to just accept as normal. These grown-ass heroes should not be hitting each other.

And a degree, honey. Several of them.

He sounds like a teacher trying to get the class to behave and that script keeps failing him. Over and over the adults around him dismiss him for his optimism, ignore his calls for reason. And they're heroes. They're the good guys and they tear into each other regularly and viciously. And Billy is fifteen years old in a room of adults screaming at each other. The team is sometimes down right abusive, and this child is trying to keep them from falling apart.

I worry about him, ya know?

(anyway, thank you for coming to my Sad Boy Hours)

#justice league 80s #jli #justice league international #billy batson #shazam #dc captain marvel #i found so many moments of billy being an absolute sweetie pie and trying desperately to get people to get along #it kinda breaks my heart a little because he's just 15 and these are Grown Ass Adults in the MOST hostile work environment #i got a LOT of feelings about the Emotional Support Child #possibly eldest daughter syndrome but all the kids are older than you and y'all have no parents #he's literally a child soldier #kind of inspired by a fic i read the other day #and just watching billy get emotional slapped around because he Cares #sad boy hours #when the most mature person on the team is the only one who hasn't finished puberty #and i get this is kinda the joke but the sad boy hours got me so #ANGST #“its not that deep” IT IS TO ME

so far the thing i like best about nu: carnival is that eiden is genuinely lovely and i completely understand why all these dudes are just dropping everything to follow him around

#HOWEVER i wish he would slap kuya just once #am i the only one who finds that motherfucker insufferable #i get that that's supposed to be his trait but i don't find it cute so far he's just genuinely incredibly mean #it's actually making me feel more affectionate towards eiden because stfu leave him alone #and the fact that he has enough patience to put up with that and try to interpret what he actually means instead of just #calling him an asshole. which i think he is entitled to! but he doesn't #makes me really love him and hope he doesn't believe any of that and isn't too hard on himself #i think this is gonna be another game where my favorite character is the protag lol #(although i do really love some of them especially olivine) #nu: carnival #nu carnival #yes i'm supposed to be doing work shut up

the thing about Minthara/Florrick is that evil-aligned megalomaniac Minthara is the emotional one as a canonical cuddlemuffin, yearner, and feelings-catcher, whereas upstanding and virtuous Florrick is so wholly committed to a) the city and b) platonic soulmate Ulder that she's otherwise about as emotionally available as a brick, and I think that makes for a very fun dynamic in the most rancid way possible

#*slaps roof of crackship* this baby can fit so many weird emotional beats that only appeal to me #'evil megalomaniac' and 'emotionally available as a brick' are positive descriptors btw it's very sexy of them #I know Florrick has at least 1 ex who hates her fucking guts and she doesn't get why (it was the neglect) and that's so hot to me #Minthara/Florrick #counsellor florrick #minthara #thots as I try to wring another fic out of my brain in time for valentine's day

i will never justify why i like deh bc i don’t have to actually. i can just like it no qualifier needed

#this is inspired by a post but by no means a direct response #im just sick of anyone who ever says they like deh following it up with an ‘even though it sucks’ #u can just say u like it #also it doesn’t suck okay it’s not problematic bc that doesn’t #doesn’t mean anything #the story isn’t trying to tell people to lie about knowing dead kids it’s not a moral lesson #the music slaps #have ur issues with it whatever but stawp with the shame #no media is without flaws #deh is not objectively bad as much as people want to believe that #honestly no one gets to clown on deh when dark romance is insanely popular on tiktok #by which I mean clearly we can understand that media doesn’t have to reflect real life morals #it doesn’t have to be pure and clean #im literally so cold rn #that’s unrelated #let people enjoy deh guilt free #let the tiktok girlies enjoy mafia stalker fiction #live and let live! #do i main tag this #dear evan hansen #deh #dear evan hansen (2021)

howl, zabimaru

bonus: here it is in two other colorways

#zabimaru #my fanart #is this...folk art? #this is a birthday present for renji because srsly who wouldn't want a linocut of their own bankai? #happy birthday renji! #i think this was more process than product but i had a pretty good time making it #sorry i couldn't decide between the colors so you get all of them #this is so awful but the purple version is actually based on RENJI'S STUPID TOQUE FROM ROLLING STAR #or at least at made it at the time that i was trying to color-correct that screenshot #i was just going thru the gradient maps that i had and was like 'oh no this looks good' #this is all digital btw #made possible by the bardotbrush art maker's club block print toolkit brushset. thank you lisa! i hope you never see this!! #i actually did take an actual block printing class once. it turned out it was less of a class and more of open studio for 3 old dudes #and as a result it took a ton of time outside of class that i didn't really expect #and i had a baby at the time and i also sucked at art then so i didn't re-enroll when it was over #point being: i think it would funny to go back and do nothing but 20-year old anime-themed block prints #you laugh but there was a big ass print someone made of totoro hanging in the room and it slapped

Can we go back to One-Eye bullying Clear Sky yet?? I want him humiliated again x1000 😔👍

I need a fan cam of One Eye shredding Clear Sky to the tune of Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels for emotional support as I get through A Forest Divided

#It's insane that there's like two characters who have slapped Clear Sky and one of them is his mom and the other is One Eye #also i made a bad habit of literally playing despacito every time the books try to get me to feel bad for Clear Sky #and now i cant unsee one eye dancing to it in the afterlife #Star x Clear = Broke #One Eye x Quiet Rain = WOKE. #fennelposting

i love having cats. there's just a Little Guy in my house that i can go annoy when i'm bored

#she's my bestie she's my nemesis she's my comedy partner she's my little meow meow #i poke her she smacks me #i say hi she makes an unholy noise in return #i crochet she sits in my lap and watches #i freak out bc theres a spider & she eats it #and when i keep my door closed for more than five seconds she yowls and scratches like she's been exiled #she truly is The Most Cat Ever #except also not bc she acts more like a person. shes too smart #absolutely unprompted #sorry im just feeling Affection for my small ginger menace #she is currently crouching on the rug trying to Entice me into shenanigans #ohhhh nvm she just brought one of her toys into the room. she wants me to throw it so so badly #get you a cat who plays fetch #and Wont Stop Staring oh my god i can feel her eyes boring into the back of my skull #she's just staring at me from the hallway. menacingly #her tiny murder paws.... her weirdly strong tail that hurts when it slaps me in the face... big ol ears... pink nose... She <3 #i've never had a cat with such a strong personality #sorry *purrsonality #her range of expressions and vocals... unparalleled #helped me carry a bit for a full five minutes a lil bit ago #meowed back in all the right places with the right tone #she knows whats up <3

Hi Mei :)

#pmatga #my art #pmatga oc #mei lián #“I have been drawing Mei.” #“What?” #“I have done nothing but draw Mei for 3 days.” #well- it's when she was in her 30s^^;; #also when she and Betrayus were first interacting! Betrayus initially did not like her! #he wasn't used to someone actively trying to seek out and get to know him. so he was just his usual #“grr I don't like talking to new people and I'm always grumpy blah blah blah” <- paraphrasing #I really need to just. write everything I can about her down and then just slap it here because I feel like I haven't conveyed who #she really is and how she acts as a character. I feel like she's still too empty on a surface level in my drawings #but in my head she's /way/ more fleshed out #like she's an engineer. she has 3 younger siblings. she's a hard worker (to the point where even betrayus tells her to take breaks). #she's the person who makes betrayus open up and see the world in a better light! she had such a huge influence on him and helped him grow! #I just don't want her to be 'this is betrayus's wife! and that's it!' you know? I /need/ there to be more #but alas. it is hard for me to write u_u #uuuoohh I forgot I have to draw her motorcycle too..... uwwahhh... #also notes: I didn't draw her shoes on the full-body on the left. and I didn't actually 'color' her clothing on the full-body on the right #I grey-scaled it. but never went through with coloring it

Eddie would have a pair of crocs that eventually Steve starts wearing but won’t admit that then turns into crocs used by anyone that comes over to the house. Every fights over which charms are used and if sport mode is better ‘on’ or ‘off’.

#they are fucking MASSIVE so everyone is slapping g around in them like clown shoes #Eddie bought them that big so that nobody could run off and try to steal them #he was very sad when he had to leave the family crocs at Wayne’s place when he moved out #I maybe have very many thoughts about this that I’ll spare you all of #but Eddie defintely threatens to wear them out of the house and Steve refuses to be seen with him #if they get muddy he just wears them into the shower #I could go on… #stranger things #eddie munson #steddie #steve harrington #is this going to become a series? maybe. who knows. #I’d like to bring back my moth man and claw clip series too #Clawnon I miss you terribly

late entry for day 6 of @tendaysoftenzo ! the prompt was:

Day 6, November 6th: Global Arts and Culture | What If 

i've been on something of a mild horror/angst kick lately! a "What If" that always plagues me has always been "What if Tenzō didn't make it out of Root before he entered the narrative?"

it's not an AU i ever seriously plan to play with because it warps and breaks the canon narrative so bad, and it's just straight up unfun, but. every once and a while I get curious who "Captain Yamato" would have been, in that case, especially working alongside Sai still!

#tendaysoftenzo #naruto #my art #yamato #tenzō #yamato tenzo #kakashi #tsunade senju #jiraiya #for such a small and short comic. hoo. this was tricky #the whole thing is that for it to hit at all it relies entirely on two load-bearing expressions. one is kakashi's look #the other is tenzō's close up #kakashis was the least important of the two because he doesn't need to convey a specific feeling he just needs to look wigged out #ambiguously completely unnerved—not scared. not mad. but Upset. like hes seen a ghost #yamato on the other hand needs to have a very specific expression and that expression is ''the hollowest man you've ever seen'' #a man you could expectantly crack over a frying pan only to have a single mote of dust drift down from the split shell #a man you could slap on the shoulder and he'd ring like a gong #a man who could be used as a life preserver in case of a man-overboard drill #and getting the balance of ''he's trying to be friendly'' and #''anything he had inside of him has been hidden like his personality was subject to a suburban mother cleaning for thanksgiving company'' #was a little tricky #also i think...this was my first time drawing jiraiya? i have to say...he's really fun to draw. #hes also so fucking huge he makes tsunade look tiny #even from across kakashi's hospital bed gkjsdhgksdhgksdghksdghsdgh

Your best bet against a Stellaron Hunter is another one.

#and yes i did win the fight #no teammates? no problem #no elemental advantage? no problem #fucker was tough but I WAS TOUGHER #lore accurate blade (refusing to die) #i fully thought i'd have to give it a second try and run you know more sustain than just my poor lynx #and then blade did what he did best and just kept on fighting #*slaps his ass* this suicidal edgelord can fit so much self-sustain in him #ult heals brings you to 50% hp so if you're below it's a heal. follow-up attack is a heal. #GOD i love blade #he might be outdamaged by a lot of dps characters out there but his survivability is so much better #which generally isn't my strategy of choice (i'm more 'it can't hurt you if it's dead') #but when you get jumpscared by a new boss you know nothing about like here #well it's very nice to have someone who can tank the hits and chip away at the hp bar #hsr #ray's records #hsr spoilers #honkai star rail spoilers #penacony spoilers #for the sake of clarity this is a real achievement but it has absolutely nothing to do with this fight so don't worry #though when/if sam gets released as a boss in the simulated universe or something there might be achievements then

prize for least genre aware protagonist 👑

#no because Thor trusted Loki so much and was oblivious and that's what made the whole thing a tragedy #but Thor was really out there like 'what do you MEAN Loki lied to me about Father's death and my banishment... let me try appealing to him' #except Thor's version of appeal is like a really really bad apology where the person doesn't want to admit they did anything #and also isn't convinced you're hurt #and Thor's SO SURE this plan will work because he knows his brother right #he knows Loki #and his plan which in accordance to him would have worked was to appeal to Loki's good side/the truth of who would be hurt #his plan was to do away with Loki's assumed anger by being like ''noooo don't do this here hit me instead <3'' #and he thought Loki wouldn't do it. #which means that before the whole plot shenanigans that would have worked and Loki also wouldn't have hit Thor #Loki watching Thor try to manipulate him by acting like his feelings are invalid the same way Frigga and Odin tried: nice try. thot. *wack* #so anyway Thor got hit and I think that's what u get for being soooooo sure that your little brother who u take for granted won't get hurt #by anything discouraging said or done or implied or being used by u for about him <3 #anyway the fact that Thor was SO sure that Loki was reacting badly and would calm down and be normal again is so sad actually #because it means Thor had the experience to know that's how it should have gone #which means when that's not what happened Thor also gets to be the one who has to work through processing that Loki's changed #and I don't think he DID that in the year where Loki was gone #he just neglected thinking about it until Loki was back and suddenly he couldn't pretend his brother had been the same (good) one at death #sad ironic something something character foils too late tragedy #Thor really went out there like i got this and got <beep>slapped fr fr #and then it happened again when he showed up for the Bifrost fight #Thor: i just have to wait it out. we all get angry. he'll get better #Loki: [screaming crying raging shrieking trying to kill him] #Thor: HE'LL GET BETTER #the fact that Thor doesn't expect the lies or the hitting or the unreasonable attitude even when Loki is VERY angry.......... ;-; #Thor watched his brother deteriorate in real time

So Allegedly Infinite Wealth is 100 hours... not that you can't already spend that long on the games if you really want to, but I'd say it's the first time that could be said to be the base experience rather than a time only hardcore completionists are likely to get.

Yokoyama was talking at length about wanting to make the game worth the price tag since the team is incredibly conscious about the value of the players' time and money. They essentially feel they owe players ten times what they paid, so they're aiming for "an enjoyable 100 hours, but also an unforgettable 100 hours."

If they pull it off, I personally think it'd be 100% worth it and not just a "well other studios are doing it so we can get away with it too" price hike... I'm at least happy to know that's not the intent, and I'm intrigued to see how everything pans out and what the ratio is between story and side content

oh yayaya i saw that article this morning!!! 100 hours is actually so unfathomable to me in terms of an rgg game- i mean y7 was At Minimum around 45~50 hours but when i think of other RPGS that easily dip into 70's and 100's of hours, i'm not too surprised to see LAD start to climb towards those numbers now. it'd be such a jump in rgg's terms tho, so i'm TRULY curious to see where the nearly doubled gameplay hours comes from..

i really appreciate yoko's respect not just to RGGS but also to its customers: they want to make a great product, but they also don't want to sacrifice what they want to do to do that in the process

#snap chats #very timely article since .. i think it was passport i dont exactly remember who it was that was concerned about the game quality #maybe it was kana... idk one of you lot LMAO POINT IS thank you for reading our minds yoko #i wouldnt mind 100+ hours of island content LMAO but fr im truly curious to see what the main plot's gon be bout then #i mean we KNOW the main plot but yk what i mean... how the hell does this pan out.. #REGARDLESS. i never had any issue with the LAD8 price #maybe its just cause i dont buy videogames too much <- liar (theyre old so like .2% cheaper its ok i think) #in rgg's case i always know im gonna get something i'll love for months- even years at this point #either way its nice knowing that yoko's at least aware of people who aren't happy with the price #and even besides that still just want to make a worthy game #aint nothin wrong with knowin your worth.. i think. #talking about videogame prices in general honestly im p sure the avg price for a game should be in the 100's by now #going off inflation anyway #so the fact devs are still trying to keep it under the $100 is. Something to me anyway #the quality of games- in terms of graphics anyway- has really gone up. idk if that warrants a FAT slap of an expense in the end #but it's not hard for me to understand the crawl towards it right #but now im ramblngi LMAOOOOOO anyways #haruka did nothing wrong yoko said it himself <3
