#zooted out of my mind

[mostlyaeiou]

maybe I'm autistic, but I'm having that feminine urge to be prepared for any scenario all in one bag

#am i normal??? #surely not #SURELY i am not normal #im like repacking my backpack rn in my room #zooted out of my mind #and im like making sure i have my napkins and my set of single use utensils #and im fitting my two snack in #making sure its all nice and accessible in case of the Real Possibility i will need a snackie #or it paper napkin #ive not even gotten to the first aid kit pocket #maybe this isnt a female thing #honestly and truly? i think i get it from my mom #shes got all her little things on her #i made it so my minivan is like the mom van my mom had when i was a kid #she may be specific but she gets results #i love my mom yall #woah stream of consciousness #im a little hizzle #hizzle #aeiou thinking

Hey! I love your screenshots so much! Do you have a guide on how you take them? Which mods, if any, do you use? How do you get the camera parallel to the ground at different heights etc? Any help would be amazing. Thank you!

Hey! Thank you! I love them, as well, and it’s always lovely to hear when others do!

Unfortunately, I am not much of a technical writer so I don’t have any guides.The reality is I spend hours and hours taking screenshots and I often feel like I luck into things looking nice.

But I can give you the same tips I give to my friends who have said it’s helpful advice:

Vanilla gpose is very good! You can do a lot in it without the need for 3rd party tools and I’ve found having a good, solid understanding of how gpose works is what really rockets shots into ‘oh wow’ territory. You really just have to touch all the buttons and see what they do and how they interact with each other.

The main thing is, for re/g-shade users: If it doesn’t look good in vanilla lighting, the preset isn’t going to make it suddenly stunning.

The second thing, for everyone, is: Play. Play is very important. If you’re not having fun you’re probably not gonna love the final result. If it feels like a chore, come back to it later! Play a different game!

The third thing, for everyone, is: These are not rules, these are not laws. Just because I do something a certain way doesn’t mean it’s the ‘right’ way to do it. Your eye is what makes your art beautiful.

I'm putting the rest under a cut because this wound up being three pages without the pictures because I ramble.

The parts of vanilla gpose I touch with every shot:

Camera Position: The first slider is your field of view. For portraits I set it to 200, but I tend to fiddle with it in all other shots until I get something I like. The second slider is rotation, very helpful to get to exactly 45 degrees or 90 degrees for shots. But you should also be able to use Q and E to rotate and this is fun to get neat angles on shots! Play with it!!

Depth of Field: I’ll be honest, I turn this sucker off because Reshade has ADOF which I think is better! But, I still suggest playing with this a little bit.

Lighting settings: You have three lights, each with three levels and each able to be a unique color. USE THEM. Find lighting objects in your setting that you can use to base the colors and directions off of. Is the moon full and above? Use a pale blue light as a rim light. 3a. Also, highly recommend looking at RL photography lighting set ups. This has been the most helpful. You can do a lot with three lights!!!!! 3b. Typically, I am mostly using two lights at type 1 or type 2. Sometimes I’ll use a third light, or that type 3 lighting, but it depends heavily upon the vibes. 3c. On this page there is ‘Character Lighting’ this makes your character brighter. I don’t use this at all because it tends to wash out shadows and shadows are an important part of lighting. I DO suggest that YOU use this to see how it works! A little is a lot, you know? 3d. THE MAIN THING IS TO PLAY WITH IT. Get weird with the lighting. Do really intense close up lights! Do funky colors! Cover them in bi lighting!!!!

Lighting Round Two: The one thing that my friends have said is the most helpful is telling them to use the Manual Birghtness Adjustment. This is on the general tab, not with your other lighting settings (circled in red). This controls the light of the WHOLE setting, including the brightness of your three lights. This is what really makes me go OH WOW. Turn it on, wiggle it around, be amazed. (Say it with me: Play with it!)

ADJUST YOUR LIGHTING.

Vanilla Gpose has a Motion Settings tab. This is what I use for my expressions but also a lot of ‘poses’ are just well captured emotes. A lot of this tab should be self explanatory.

The Eyes: The first eye has your subject turn to face the camera. You can have them look in a direction, turn it off, and freely move your camera around. The second eye is eye tracking. This is your friend! The head will stay stationary and the eyes will follow the camera.

Movement: Walk, run, sprint. Forward, left, right, back. Pause, play, reset.

Lip Movements: This, in junction with expression emotes, is very handy! Type 1 is minimal, type 3 is a lot more head movement. Pause, play, reset buttons.

Emotes: You already know what I’m gonna say. PLAY WITH THIS. Almost every emote can have an expression emote overlaid it and have lip movement added.

A personal favorite is /aback, /beam, lip movement 2, eye tracking.

Now. When you enter Gpose your subject is gonna be doing the animation they were last doing. To stop this, ground sit and stand before you enter gpose to start with a clean slate. However, this is also how you can get cool action shots. Using a dummy you can use an attack, reset the dummy, and enter gpose and your subject will be flailing wildly.

Some of the emotes and actions can move very quickly! To move things frame by frame we’re going to use the Disable/Enable Motion buttons. You have two of these at the top of the gpose settings.

Disable/Enable All Motion - This will pause or start all the motion of all the targets in your gpose! My Keybinding for this is 1 and I think this is the default for PC users. Disable/Enable Target Motion - This will pause or start the motion of your current target. (Tab cycles through the characters caught in your gpose.) My Keybinding for this is 2 and I think this is the default for PC users.

To go frame by frame by frame through an emote or action you’re going to freeze the character (1) and then, rapidly, you’re going to hit 1 then 2. (1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2) this unfreezes your subject and then refreezes them. Be mindful of your eye tracking and camera! One last thing: Take a LOT of shots. From all sorts of angles, with all sorts of lighting, with different expression. For every 1 screenshot I post there are about a 100 others that I didn't like as much.

Whew, okay, I think that covers the stuff I tell my friends. Sorry this got kinda long and it might be confusing because, again, I am no technical writer!

Now, I do use 3rd party tools but I’m only comfortable talking about those off anon! Other than Reshade. I understand social anxiety might keep folks from asking directly but I am a nervous person myself and just do not feel comfy talking about that stuff so publicly. But I try to be helpful where and when I can!

Apologies, anon, if this isn’t what you were hoping for in a reply but if anyone else reads this maybe they’ll learn a new trick or idea of idk something!!!

If you read the all thing that's fucking WILD and the only reward I have for you is my love !!

#AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH #I'm just posting it sorry if this isn't what you wanted anon!!! #the camera thing I don't think i fully understood but!!! #feel free to DM me sometimes I'm slow to respond but !!! I don't mind helping! #idk what to tag this as so like idk idk idk #guide #every time a friend asks me for tips these are usually what I give them btw #play with things #take your time!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #The other secret is that I am usually zooted out of my fucking mind and I take 5 hours to do a single gpose

I am literally on my knees begging for your trans Izaya headcanons. I will pay you for them I am deadass serious how much do you want please shigaeru please

OKAY SO

- Izaya figures out pretty early in life and when he meets Shinra in middle school he already has a pretty good passing- Shinra is like "oh yeah hormones are pretty easy to find, I can get some for u". A few years later, he'll be known for home brewing hrt.

- Izaya wears a binder until he meets Shizuo in highschool. Outrunning Shizuo in a binder is Hell. He meets Shizuo and then he goes straight to Shinra like "you have to get rid me of These". Shinra goes Oh I see. (I know what you Are dog pic) Yeah I can definitely do that

-Izaya gets his surgery at Shinra's and has to stay there for a few days because there's no one home to monitor him, and he doesn't want the twins to see him bedridden, but it's the worst few days of his Life. Having to endure the pain AND Shinra 24/24.

- Shizuo chases him around after surgery because Izaya is out too soon. fuck around and find out, Izaya gets major chest pain and has to stop during a fight because OUARGH ARGH

- Shizuo finds out (Shinra probably outs him because he's a sociopath and doesn't see how it's bad to do that and/or just want to see what would happen.) What happens is Izaya is Very Mad at him about it whereas Shizuo SOOOO DOESN'T CARE OH MY GOD

- Shizuo's even a bit angry on Izaya's behalf? Like 'hey that's kind of a shitty thing to do. I wouldn't want you to say private stuff about me to other people what the fuck". And Izaya is. Weirdly touched.

- It's not only that Shizuo doesn't care, he Gets It. Very straightforward logic. It's so evident to him that "you don't feel like a woman? then you're not a woman. You don't have to be one, what the fuck do you want me to tell you?" and Izaya, who hasn't heard anyone say anything like that to him before, feels so much lighter. Shizuo Gets It.

- Izaya's scars look a bit messed up because Shinra did a poor job (he was 15 and had never done it before) and Izaya did not take care of them very well

- He regularly skips injections. it's been a long time he just forgets he's trans sometimes.

- Only Shizuo, Shinra, Celty, the twins, and that mf Shingen know about it

#saw someone in the tags say he forges his documents and you're so real for this #ask #i had so many ideas for post surgery izaya sillies when I was zooted out of my mind on painkillers in my hospital room #my drains were killing me and my dumb ass would try to sit up on my elbows and OUCH OW ABORT #big izaya moment #headcanons

[once-and-future-alaskan]

My thing is apparently providing spiritual guidance to other 20-something trans women because I have an unfiltered mania about the very concept of religion.

#it happened twice tonight #none if you were around when i was absolutely insane with it #zooted out of my mind on the importance of faith to the human condition #they wanted to kill me. the trad caths and the athiests both.

[hootiee]

ive been really out of it lately so if i rb something that seems out of character for me its bc i did not read that shit and just rb it out of instinct bc i assumed it would be funny or some shit without even being conscious of what im doing

#.txt #i rbed something earlier and only read the first part of the chain until i realized that they were talking abt some short story #that ive never heard of in my life #its not that i just didnt read the other parts of the chain its that i didnt even know those additions where there. at all. #idk whats been up with me lately ive just been so zooted out of my mind its really driving me crazy #im so easily forgetful and distracted and cant think straight #ive just been on auto pilot a lot like 60% of my day #maybe the magnesium supplements ive been taking for my migraines are having negative effects..

[pursuingsunshine]

#yall? i think i got into a massive car accident on my way to choir last night #that's the only explanation. i gotta be like zooted out of my mind on pain meds laid up in a hospital bed somewhere bc there's no way #there's no way i came home last night to my mother having made my favorite kind of cookie #only to wake up this morning (day off) #and see Sebastian Vettel driving Senna's car in a sexy white race suit #followed by Daniel and Mick tire tests #DANIEL BACK ON THE GRID ANNOUNCEMENT #AND my Max merch that said it's been held up in Denmark for the past week sitting on my doorstep when i got home from my pedicure #this is not real life #anyway #imma go watch star trek while i count my tips from this week #thank you for your time 💕🙏💕💕

I am still very sick but I am getting less sick. Slightly

Last night was a concerning level of chills + fever, today has mostly just been a series of irritating but nonthreatening unpleasantries. I just want to be well enough to play minecraft 😔

Cant stop thinking of meth addict autist nishikiyama that was retconned away in y0 and yk1 like no the hell it wasnt if you look with your eyeballs you can see that both are still present

#Yakuza loveblog #nishiki where is the methé #sorry oyasan #nishiki where is the cocainer #in my nose kazama no oyasan #😦 #when kashiwagi gave nishiki the news that hed be starting his own family that boy was not fucking sober #like hes very good at hiding it usually and he makes it a point not to get high around kiryu even though hes smoking all the drugs to #protect him but nishiki was not present during that scene he was struggling to hold eye contact and speak japanese #like that story where that guy who was zooted out of his mind had to serve this governer lady while extremely high and he wasnt in control #of his body or volume at all. that was nishiki during that scene he was jerking about and screaming for no reason

Thinking about Geiger

#hes so cool.... i admired the guy back then #he was part of the reason i kept watching scrap yard fights #his weapons and just. fightin dirty? a man after my own heart... #plus he was so quiet while doin it all... not like he could talk but still #hes how i got myself into the queens circle LMAO #bc after the reckoning it was kinda #like i originally was like 'lemme see if that pig guy wants to take me home' and a flick to the forehead #hurt but took my eyes off him for sure lol #then i set my sights on geiger #friendly sights mind you. but i did think he was hot #i dont think that went far bc then the queen acknowledged me and man #i folded hard...... #she was so fun at the beginning of her reign man #put herself on a pedestal later tho 🙄 its what made me wanna destroy her shit #that was when left junkertown tho. she kinda chilled out when we hit our early/mid thirties #didnt seem as mad. like still she's gonna punch me but shes not gonna cut my tongue out anymore #glad overwatch got us to hang out again #talkin #mems #zooted
