#Angie's rambling times

[mysteriousl0ser]

FUCK IT, TADC EP 2 THOUGHTS MAJOR SPOILERS!! BE WARNED

LETS GO!! Pomni is still pretty screwed up over her first day here, I mean this is all fresh and new to her so like DUH. everyone else here is somewhat or entirely adjusted and kind of just cope with the fact that theyre here I dont think pomni has really processed how long theyve been here?? In the pilot she seems SO bothered by how okay they are with this and willingness to do caines fuckass adventures

i dont blame her, anywho pomni in her nightmare-induced state starts to abstract, she had to face an abstraction early on in her days here which like have to be pretty truamatizing (duh) and cried out to ANYONE, but where she called for help literally no one helped her “oh well” they though

Pomni doesn't feel like anybody else cares, shes the only one whos still going through an adjustment phase and freaking the fuck out while everyone else is just going along with the adventure, something she still thinks is kinda pointless and doesn't get why anybody would waste their time here doing when they COULD be looking for a way out, why is she the only one who seems to still be distressed here? To feel lost? At least from her perspective, it seems that way. Unfortunately, these people have already been here for a while.

Pomski then meets someone whos just like her, their whole reality was shattered and they don't belong anywhere, mirroring how pomni feels at the moment, even if she still has some sort of grip now vs when she first got here

And she finds comfort in that!!! Why is it that this NPC feels more real than the ACTUAL REAL PEOPLE trapped here with her??? Whatever the reason, its something to hold onto. Something to LATCH onto. Hes Real. or at least he feels real, and maybe she feels like she belongs with him because at least he knows the feeling, something shes not really felt w anyone else before

This comfort and solidarity she has with gumigoo is shortlived however as she gets brutally reminded that he wasnt real. The anchor she had vanished and there's quite literally nobody to catch her fall.

And i feel like ragatha trying to comfort her the way she did didnt help AT ALL. it was kinda a sore reminder that gumigoo is easily replaceable, and GOD thats so frustrating?? This thing felt so real to her and nobody seems to care that he just vanished!! If they could be so apathetic to this whos to say they wont just treat her demise just the same as she thought they would???

But then something important happens. They have a funeral for Kaufmo, someone whos been established to be their friend way before Pomni ever came here. And maybe it didn't ever settle in before that kaufmo was a real person! Literally!! And he was real to them. Just like gumigoo though less directly they relate to being in pain and kind of in shock of losing someone who they cared about and who was a real person to care about to them AND LIKE YOU CAN SEE WHERE IT CLICKS IN HER FACIAL EXPRESSION HERE, THE CHANGE IN HER EYES AND THE WAY HER EXPRESSION LOSENS AT THIS IDK IT DRIVES ME CRAZY GOD THE ANIMATORS WENT OFF W THIS EP VS THE PILOT IM IM IM

anyways anyways They have their funeral service, theres quite literally no reason for anyone to just lie and go along with whatever bs caines got going on, this also quite literally has nothing to do with him. This is kind of their own little way of keeping some sort of human traditions and respect for the human persons that get stuck here because they care. HELL you can even see pomni feel a little guilty here when ragatha says that his funeral was disrupted cause she arrived here

anyways thats exactly it!! They fucking car!! This whole time pomni thought that they just didnt care and were kind of apathetic or downright patronizing her over all this and mocking her or whatnot, like in her dream sequence. But no, they all talk respectively about their memories and experiences with kaufmo, the things they shared together and the feelings they had. EVERYBODY was grieving. Ragatha who always tried to put on some cheerful and kind of irritating (to pomni at least) everythings fine facade (which also kind of feels less real to her at least i think so but i don't think she figured it to be a coping mechanism) to just straight up start crying and breaking up a bit, even mentioning how this does not ever get any easier and how shes had to deal with this plenty of times before.

Zooble the usually apathetic and kind of asshole who keeps to themselves and gives off i don't care energy and probably gave off the impression that they didn't care about anyone here and just treated the people stuck here as an unfortunate fact and nothing more actually being vulnerable and probably doing the same as ragatha talking about their memories with kaufmo

Kingers ALWAYS kind of zoned out or not really taking anything seriously and just being there completely lost in space, but here hes grounded, and even earlier in the episode when ragatha needed it most he remained grounded then too (tho pomni didnt see that i just wanted to mention it). Just like the others he grieves and lives in the unfortunate moment

more of the kinger being grounded when the thought counts

GANGLE- dude even if its for just a moment she smiles here despite having her tragedy mask and like her whole shtick is being of whatever mood or emotion her mask is allegedly wether she wants to or not, but no here shes more than just that, she smiles for a bit when reminiscing her moments with kaufmo only to go back into crying, and man shes always crying with her tragedy mask but its beyond as far as anyone can tell wether or not its really her or just because of her mask, but here? its really her, no matter what the mask on her face shows!! shes genuinely smiling despite having her comedy mask and shes genuinely crying which is very blatantly obviously different to the usual mask cry etc etc

heres something about all this, it hits pomni in a way. These people ARE real, and they care. They care about her, they have nothing else but eachother and THATS something to latch onto. Thats something to hold her down, even if they just met pomni

SPEAKING OF JUST MEETING POMNI she literally expressed how she didnt wanna just LEAVE gumigoo there by himself because she believes no one should just be left there

the circus peeps just met pomni and just like how she felt a real connection to gumigoo in this digital hell she feels a sort of connection with these people too. Theyre gonna have her back all the same, maybe she wont feel so out of place and alone. BONUS THING!! The literal only times she genuinely smiles is when she feels this real connection to what feels real to her and has a genuine and sincere moment with these people whether it be an npc or a trapped member. Idk it just means something to me how significant both these moments are tipped off with a genuine smile a REAL SMIE!! (id add pictures but tumblr has a 30 image limit) OH ALSO BONUS BONUS THING THE DIFFERENCE IN OUTRO MUSIC IS SO IS SO ITS SO the outro song for the pilot kinda feels so ethereal and out of the moment at least to me it kinda feels like it you're slipping through the cracks and just, existing within yourself as the rest of the world around you kind of shatters into glass or melts into water or something i dont think ANY of that made any sense but its loud and its blaring and its so out of reach in a way, mad disassociation vibes but the outro song for the 2nd ep is a lot quieter yet its right there, at first it starts really small, lonely even. trapped by yourself but as the music gets louder and more instruments join in on the song it kind of has a comforting feel? bittersweet? even? its grounding ina way which is much different from how the first one felt at least to me lmao and the comforting feel kinda only emphasizes what I was talking about earlier- the comfort in having that anchor of reality with having a real moment with these people and making that connection yk? and like as i was saying at first the song starts off with just one instrument, at the start of the episode pomni feels utter alone and out of place even if these people here with here are stuck in the same situation as her, together alone. but as the other instruments join. in it kinda uplifts the song a bit, its not one sole instrument anymore like how in the end pomni feels that connection with everyone else, not so alone anymore idk jackshit about music theory so this is entirely a feelies talk instead of like- music lore? so don't take anything i say as like- idk some professional speak im just a nerd nerding about silly digital fixations ANYWAYS THATS ALL FOR NOW I AVE MORE TO SAY BUT THIS IS LONG ENOUGH LOL if you actually read all the way down this far thank you for listening!!! i really really appreciate it :]

part 2 to the ex bf simon one i beg

have we had the part 2 discussion on here yet? I don't think we have but I'm feeling like getting into it today so here goes The lovely and immensely talented @cordeliawhohung phrased how these kinds of asks make writers feel far better than I ever could in one of her posts here

There also...is...a part 2 I know, shocker, right?

If you'd checked my blog, you'd see that not only is there a part 2, but also a whole host of other Simon stuff for you to read! Loads of it!

I personally believe that writers would be far more inclined to continue works if they were appreciated and complimented, as opposed to treated as some form of instant gratification to be churned out with little in the way of feedback and support.

I have 2 full length fics on the go right now, alongside dropping in to respond to the odd request and juggling life and studies and health stuff. If I wanted to update that little drabble, I would've.

I've said it once, and I'll say it again. Writers put in immense amounts of effort to create content for you to enjoy, for free. A little kindness and appreciation for the energy we put in to our work goes a long way. Demanding for more does not. If anything, it just pisses me (and others, I'm sure) off.

We are not Orwellian novel writing machines. (Thank fucking fuck)

I am forever moderately amused by the fact that I have a biology degree but somehow wound up with a biologist OC whose specialty is not at all what mine is.

like, don't get me wrong, I love amphibians and reptiles. I used to volunteer for a summer camp where I got to show off amphibians and reptiles to kids and tell them all about the creepy crawly critters.

but my specialty is microorganisms. the macroorganisms I've done the most schooling in are invertebrates, in particular molluscs. which are not the purview of a herpetologist.

but character development just sort of happened and now I have a herpetologist OC.

#tbf I know enough that I don't often need to google things when I have Angie talk about what she does #(other than scientific names bc I sometimes forget those) #like I know more about reptiles and amphibians than the average person #you have to get a good base for all the kinds of biology before you can specialize #but I still think it's funny I made Angie a biologist Like Me and she accidentally wound up doing the stuff I Do Not #that's what happens with OCs tho #a lot of times they just sort of...develop a life of their own #as you write them they end up different than you originally planned #which I think is a sign of a good writer #you have to be able to adjust to changing situations #don't dedicate yourself to one ending bc when you get there it might not wind up the proper one #see: the ending of HIMYM vs the ending of LoK #anyways I'll stop rambling in the tags I have to get ready for my MRI #speecher speaks

(Continuing from my last Wolfwood post)

Like. Fuck! I relate to him so much and he’s such a good character that it *hurts* to see people take him and turn him into their sexually domineering man of color of the week! And there’s an obvious difference between the people who find him sexy and those who fetishize him, so don’t think that I’m upset at the existence of horny art, I’m not.

But. Fuck! When I came up with a way to draw him I literally gave him my lips! Once I had to redraw a bunch because he was looking too much like my dad and it was weirding me out!!!!! In order to add more details to my fic, I’ve talked to my dad about what he remembers about visiting family in Mexico more than I ever have!!!!! I’m making an effort to work on my Spanish!!!

Fuck!!!!!

#personal notes #again not putting this in the tag bc this is Me Time #it’s late and I’m rambling and maybe shouldn’t post this but I’m mad!!!!!!’ #im mad!!!!!!! #no talk me im angy #tldr Mexican/Latino Wolfwood is healing for me

[akkivee]

i’ve been listening to metal all day to let professional screamers express my rage for me and finally went ‘vee you’re not that edgy, dull that shit girl’ and put on battle of pride 2023 except you don’t understand, ichiro’s first verse in that song is my favourite stage ichiro verse so now i’m upset all over again LOL 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

#this is vee speaking #hypstage putting me thru it AGAIN lmao #but instead of depressed grief it’s angy grief lol #i still need some time to like not be angry about this lol bc i would like to comment a few of the new cast look well cast #but then i think about how the og cast were still evolving their portrayals only to be cut out and just get angry all over again lmao #like i’ve been trying to figure out an excuse to talk about how aramaki-san’s sasara towards the end of the run #started to rap with a laughing quality to his tone AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH ITS SO GOOD AND SO SASARA #hirono-san growing more unhinged with every performance lmao the way he pronounced his teammates names bat haiyuu honestly were killing it #maybe i’ll make a post for each stage division rambling what i liked about each one to help process this new wave of grief lmao

Spotting a glimpse of dark poetry with Pikachu face and the speed with how suddenly both unnamed kuros start roasting me while clawing their way out at the same time is feral!

-the whole Shinning: ' honey, I'm home! ' scene is back.

#ooc. #Both Geto/Ken vc: we felt provoked by deranged poetry enough to knock politely on your door with axe #! quick tbd. #But Kenjaku overshadows this thanks to a #certain fun quote: 'bleeding all by yourself handsome'? 🔪 -> That's sumn I can help with. #{ And then I go South - - he is so scientifically experimenting with people's reactions and how far can he go before evoking agonies within #them with bare minimum like appearing in the form of best friend in front of someone's house. } #{ The angy skip in cursed energy is totes for him electrocardiogram heart-rate he operates with SwS #plus him and Sukuna be suckers from ancient times for such torment. } #{ whispers: never invite those in for a tea } #{ -squints into the abyss at 4 AM bc too much caffeine- I think I rambled a bit }

I spent close to three hours trying to figure out how to import a song into flash because I couldn't find a download anywhere, it HAS to be wav because it throws a fit with mp3 for some reason, then when I finally got it imported it was PITCHED DOWN and I had NO CLUE WHY with SEVERAL DIFFERENT FILES until I found out how to save with a different and very specific hertz???

#thanks flash 8 #at least with windows 11 it doesn't crash anymore?? #so that's actually really nice #ramblings #so much time wasted #i angy

[celestialprincesse]

aww you guys talk in your sleep and freak out your partners? that’s adorable

i kick and punch and more than a few times have i woken up to the person i was sleeping with on the floor or the couch

i think i was meant to be single

Vamp I missed you so🥲🫶

Being single is soo much better than having to share the bed with someone else!! I much prefer snuggling w/ my cat than trying to steal back the duvet from stinky boys💕
