#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #lan xichen #jin guangyao #jiang cheng #wei wuxian #qin su #EDIT: Tumblr published an earlier draft with only half the notes I wrote so: late entry on my JGY thoughts. #Unlike the mystic powers of the stockmarket (what the OG meme is referring to) I think this situation calls for more active investigation. #qin su is such a deeply tragic character to me and I really wish we got a bit more from her. #Love everyone who sent me messages about her after the last time she appeared. #I think she needs a spin off of her being a transmigrator SO badly. #MDZS has so many interesting characters - but it sometimes fails to give them the proper room to really develop past a role in the plot. #That's just the consequence of writing a story like MDZS. Not every character in a book *needs* to have a rich inner life and backstory! #To do so would bog down the story and obliterate any notion of pacing. It's just not possible. #Jin Guangyao (nee Meng Yao) is unfortunately not free from this leeway rule. He is the culprit of this murder mystery plot #and thus NEEDS to encapsulate the themes of the book. And personally he's a 7 out of 10 at best on this front (in the AD). #MDZS is about rumours twisting reality and working towards truth. And about how people & situations are rarely ever black & white #JGY has his motivations. He's well written in regards to his actions making sense for his character. #What started as good traits (drive to succeed & improve his image) became twisted over time (do anything to maintain his image) #and it's a good parallel to WWX! He has the same arc (with different traits)! Bonus points for IGY in that regard. #but man....by the time we confront this guy for murder there's not a lot of grey morality. He's just...deep in the hole *he* dug. #There's a beautiful tragedy to it! More on JGY in later comics - this is getting pretty long already!

#in the game files the last image of hunter's ascension ending - the one with nsh - is named “embrace” #as a side note #i typically as i like to interpret slugcats as... #intelligent of course as they can draw and sign in downpour lore... #but in a different way from humans. in a different way from iterators. #that's just how i like to interpret them though - if you like to interpret slugcats in a more anthropomorphized/humanized fashion #i'm glad for you and i'm glad you're having fun too :) #anyways i wrote this comic the way i did because i felt like it was the best and most succinct way #to get the message i was trying to express across #so hunter's thoughts are pretty straightforwardly written despite the more complex concepts behind them #i mean they are also made and raised by an iterator so that could come into play #maybe i could have thought of a different way but eh i already drew the comic #rain world #rw hunter #no significant harassment #flickerdoodles #comic #long post #rw spoilers #art

Okay LOOK how calm and peaceful he looks. Sitting alone there, in his own world. But also how sad he looks. The artist has done a really good job with the contrasting colours. His world is literally cold and blue right now and he just wants things to change. But he knows things don’t change in Gotham. It never does.

And then there’s the fact that his bike is there-

This boy drove- HE DROVE to sit on a bench and feed these birds. And no he didn't just hand them a leftover bite of his sandwich as he sat on a bench. No no no, he BOUGHT the breadcrumbs! Look at the little paper bag!! He bought breadcrumbs and drove his bike to sit alone on his bench and feed the pigeons.

This is what he does to calm down and unwind and empty his head from the bat-filled chaos he experienced. It's canon to me so yeah l'lI never shut up about this. My heart can't handle this information. I need to give this boy a hug

#Once again I had written all of this in the tags #and then realised I should put it in the main text so my message doesn’t get lost #Idk this panel just made me feel things #red hood #batfamily #batfam #dc #dc comics #jason todd #holy queue batman

tumblrs being transphobic, with the ceo himself starting an actual harassment campaign against a transfem & also banning transfems who post abt it.

Oh shit, I had not heard about that.

I would like to say I don’t understand why this shit keeps happening, but I actually do understand it way too well. It just makes me so sad and angry. Especially on a site where people find and make their communities.

So much of this is about ego, and the people with power wielding that power to protect themselves and failing to protect others with it. A mere hint of negative sentiment towards them is harassment that is dealt with immediately and harshly, but a dozen complaints about discrimination or threats or bullying take ages to process and frequently come to unsatisfactory moderation decisions.

Whatever the sentiments of the people running this hellsite, you are always welcome in my corner of the internet, wherever you find it. You are all wonderful, and we all deserve to feel that part of this space belongs to us and those to whom we can connect.

Transphobia has no place on tumblr, period. Or anywhere else in society for that matter. It is that which should be being rooted out.

#this is not related to herpetology #except that it is #because trans rights as well as those of every other member of LGBTQ+ affect every field #every fandom #every one #this is the first time ever I have written out a long tag rant and decided it needed to go into the main body of the post instead #meaning I had to type the whole thing again because you cannot easily copy and paste large numbers of tags #But I think it is important to see the full message from the start #rather than relying on someone else to screencap it #which I always appreciate #but not everyone always sees #anyway I am sorry especially to those in the community who are trans and who feel this most acutely #I stand with you #and I think the bulk of the community here does too #and that voice is something the leaders need to listen to #virtue signalling is not enough #actions speak louder than words #okay real tags now for searchability purposes: #about me #tumblr #trans issues #transphobia #transgender

there's something to be said about gale telling peeta that katniss will choose the person she can't survive without - a sentiment that katniss notices lacks any mention of love or comfort or affection, only partnership and practicality. because survival is the basis of gale and katniss's relationship - their relationship is the product of an oppressive regime where so many people starve and die and suffer. they built a partnership out of pragmatic necessity - friendship and affection and yes, even love, did spring from that, but nevertheless, survival was the foundation for them, and the fact that the majority of their dynamic is spent in the woods and this is the only place gale sees her happy is symbolic of that.

but her relationship with peeta is extremely different. he gives her laughter and comfort and joy no matter where they are. he balances out the temperamental and volatile nature (a characteristic she shares with gale as a result of their conditions) with peacefulness and an appreciation for beauty and goodness. they have a trust and camaraderie and friendship that extends far beyond the need for survival, a bond that connects them beyond merely the need to stay alive and protect their loved ones. it is with peeta that she truly lives and laughs and loves and betters herself. peeta notices and brings out the most wonderful parts of her cold, dispassionate exterior (mockingjay, suzanne collins), gives her an appreciation for beauty in life (dandelion in the spring, the pearl on the beach, etc). he's the calmness and peacefulness that she needs to truly live and feel free and safe, while gale is violence and storms and outbursts (which she may agree with, but his tendencies to choose violence don't satisfy katniss's emotional needs in a relationship like peeta does).

to gale and katniss, love and relationships and friendships and human connection come second to practical concerns and the mere desire to simply not die. for peeta and katniss, love and life are about far more than just survival, which is why they share an emotionally charged connection that's stronger than what gale and katniss have.

#the hunger games #is this supposed to he anti GK because it truly isn't #I think they have great chemistry and a somewhat well written dynamic and are certainly compatible #they're just too similar and thematically peeta and katniss fit the message of thg more #also for people who have known each other six years g & k are honestly far less developed and feel less natural #than her and peeta #anti galeniss #i suppose #everlark #katniss everdeen #peeta mellark #katniss x peeta #otp: dandelion in the spring #anna reads thg

Honestly it wouldn’t surprise me if SAG’s strategy was to hold off on A-lister presence on the picket line until they knew it wouldn’t hurt their message.

We know it’s not a coincidence the WGA strike comes to an end right after the Drew Barrymore debacle. I think the studios sacrificed Drew to do a temperature read: will a likeable celeb prevail against the strike? The answer was a resounding no. And then all the sudden they had an acceptable offer.

In the beginning of this strike we were reminded to stay focused: when we say actors are underpaid we are not talking about the top 2% of actors and the studios will try to make it seem that SAG is saying that top 2% is asking for a raise.

The entire WGA strike high ranking comedians picketed, strike force 5 is formed. WGA used their star power where they had it.

I think SAG saw the DB temperature read and decided it wouldn’t hurt their message to roll out the A listers. I mean- no huge names on the SAG picket line this whole strike then yesterday Jessica Chastain? Today Oscar Isaac, Pedro, Gabriel Luna, and so many many more? Just after WGA ends and DB controversy? I don’t think it’s a coincidence

#at the outset Fran’s message was actors were laborers #that message would be undermined if we have scarjo in head to toe khaite on the picket line #mind you this is written after a lil drink so! let me know if I lost some of y’all #sag aftra #pedro pascal #WGA #wga strike #gabriel luna #Oscar Isaac #strike #drew barrymore #A VERSION OF THIS CORRECTED WGA TO WAG LIKE 4 TIMES RIP

a birthday surprise!

you and your friends from the akademiya decide to pull a birthday surprise for wanderer.

“He went this way,” one of your friends whispers amongst your huddled group.

The three of you begin hastily scrambling to the pointed direction, determined to not lose track of the man you searched for, crouching as much as you could in the shadows of the forest to prevent giving yourselves away. If it weren’t for the cake sitting on a silver platter being held clumsily by three people, you’d be racing there to see your crush in no time. It’s a miracle how the homemade sweet wasn’t dropped yet.

Ah, here’s your cue!

“Surprise!”

You and your friends hurried towards Wanderer, nearly stumbling (but surprisingly none of you fell) as you all carry a cake you all made for his special celebration. He sneers at it.

You all stared at him, looking for any other reaction, growing nervous as all of you awkwardly idled with the heavy dessert tray.

After what seemed to be an eon, Wanderer let out a quick exhale before falling into a deep laughter that he can’t seem to control. Besides your colleagues (who stood there in a state of shock), you laugh as well, believing that you finally managed to crack his shell after all these months of him being in the Akademiya.

“What? Is this a poor excuse of a joke?” He stopped himself, raising an eyebrow at you.

You were stunned. Surely, he enjoyed the surprise? Why did he seem annoyed? Ignoring your timidness, you composed yourself, and said the first witty response that came to mind. “Your birthday isn’t a joke.”

Your friends come to the rescue. One of them pitches in, “Yeah! We wanted to express our gratitude for you being in our lives.”

“And to show you that we’re happy to have met you! Even though you might think we’re a nuisance sometimes…” You scratch your head with your free hand nervously.

Now it was his turn to gawk at you. It was as if you said something that was completely alien to him, but you were confident in your answer because, well, it is true. You and your fellow peers never treat birthdays as something trivial to jest about.

You watch as Wanderer pulls the brim of his hat down, catching a slight tinge of blush on his cheeks before he turns his head away.

You thought it was so cute that it was too late when you found yourself stepping away from your friends (who jolted to hold the cake still) to gently squeeze Wanderer into a warm embrace. You honestly thought that he would’ve killed you by now, yet, he allows your presence to engulf his form for a passing moment.

You hear a somewhat grumble emit from your pressed shoulder.

“Idiots,” he says, this time with no malice nor venom, but with a soft tone.

Nonetheless, with all of your strength, you step back to nod to your friend group, in which you all decide to give it your one best go at a birthday chant. Everyone, besides the man himself, collectively shouted so loud that even the archon herself could hear.

“Happy birthday, Wanderer!”

Get Souped!

#poorly drawn mdzs #better drawn mdzs #mdzs #jiang yanli #I'm back! #She would never say 'get souped idiot' but I like to imagine JC and WWX would say it to each other if the other got sick and needed soup #JYL would never throw soup without knowing full well you would be able to catch it #She would rather fall face first than drop a bowl of soup after tripping. #She’s been hard at work preparing this soup! And all of you get to have some B*) Thanks for all the support while I was on break! #‘was your break relaxing op?’ unfortunately it was like being kicked down several flights of stairs. Didn't draw much sadly #Though I did end up writing a little mdzs fic! I haven’t written anything in a long while but it was fun. Maybe I'll post it....maybe... #regardless of all this rambling; thank you for all the kind messages. ill try and reply soon! #i have a few more fun doodles before I'm ready to crack into season 2! #Enjoy the soup in the mean time! #(PS: I know that's not the right hand shape for the meme redraw but augh...the OG hand angle was...way too hard to draw). #edit: retagged as better drawn mdzs. I put a lot into this one

Parallel Fates

clang of the tracks rattling carriage flashes of flora and dust

fractured panes reflect unreciprocated familiarity a boy whom you shared first grade absorbed by the mass of strangers who all knowingly decay

seventeen years of silence now eternal, our bodies lie parallel blood gushing down the seats -

as cleanly as our sins deemed worthy of sacrificial act media slaves, headlined the tragic easter commute

The black panther movies are objectively the best marvel movies. You are allowed to have other personal favorites, but black panther is top tier. You can tell how much love Ryan Coogler has for the comics and absolute passion he put into those movies. As well as every actor.

#it makes such a difference when someone is actually a fan #they have messages #they are beautiful written and directed #black panther #black panther wakanda forever #wakanda forever #ryan coogler #marvel

Actual monarchists in the Gwaine tag. Scary

#tw classism #posts written by Leon #Gaius would write this about Uther lmao #Uther would write this about himself #like can we be fr for a second. #this is what i mean when i say that ppl think Arthur is entitled to Gwaine’s loyalty just cause he’s king #Gwaine is loyal to a servant above a king. it’s a deliberate theme and message on classism #some of you are too engrossed in fandom brainrot positions to even begin to comprehend the themes of any media you interact with #edit: plus his loyalty to Arthur is DESPITE his authority as king. like are you STUPID ON PURPOSE ?!?!?!? #bbc merlin #fandom critical
