#Battle of the Big Tops

[bruhstation]

special thanks to these pez dispensers for accompanying me during my stay at the hospital. glory to canada

#theodore tugboat #theotug foduck #theotug george #theotug emily #stanza halifax #<--- don't expect this to be a big AU in this blog because TUGS is the main focus regarding boats. I just wanna draw gijinkas #senjart #sorry for not answering the asks guys. I got admitted into a hospital since tuesday and just got released yesterday (laugh track) #anyways about the show. theodore tugboat am I right #like I've said before it doesn't hit me as hard as thomas or TUGS #like it's not as character heavy as ttte #or as worldbuilding heavy as TUGS #but it's like.... a really fun relaxing show. super good even #I'd usually roll my eyes at overly nice protagonists but theodore is an exception. he is my friend. my pal #maybe it's just my affinity for shows with talking vehicles but erm.... robert cardonna you've done it again #the show doesn't have big explosions or bombastic events unfolding #the episodes have this very quiet and soft narration by danny doherty. no loud sounds or weird wacky silly sound effects in a bwba fashion #also everyone is nice to each other in this show which surprised me lol #because I've grown accustomed to the british-style verbal battles between sudrian engines #and the typical blink-and-you-miss-it dark comedy quips from top hat and zorran #theodore tugboat: what a peaceful day at halifax :) we talked about our problems properly and learned more about the world #TUGS: what a peaceful day at vaguely san francisco :) only 2 trampers died instead of the usual 5 #I recommend it if you want a show that's easy to digest and easy on the eyes/brain #some episodes have characters that should've been switched to make it make sense #like harbour fools or even bumper buddies #I eventually got used to it #and there's not much worldbuilding going on. not my hugest complaint since it's still a cute show #there are also a few inconsistencies here and there... not to mention the episode order that kind of confused me #the side characters haven't grown much on me but I guess it just doesn't hit me YET #it's still good. I'll give it an 8/10

The Lovers: Being at crossroads. Choices. Commitment. Falling in love. Harmony. Warmth.

The Lovers Reversed: Misalignment. Imbalance. Disharmony. Coldness.

Thorns #the color gradient along the border are blue and purple. Kris and Susie #both scenes you can only see in one route or the other hence why I chose them #the imagery from the deltarune can be seen on Noelle’s front and lace along with Susie’s collar/belt and Kris’s armor #Kris and Ralsei are in the top border bc they’re watching the scene #kris is pointing to Noelle’s battle sprite because they have to call upon her to beat spamton and Noelle is fucking. freezing berdley #the Entire Background of the tip except also the windows are Morse code for kris get the banana and character names #Kris’s halo is devil horns because of that story from their childhood and Noelle’s is a thorn ring #SOUL IMAGERY EVERYWHERE but especially Kris’s armor and sword (plus Noelle’s lace lol) #the binary code on Spamton spells the lyrics to big shot #Noelle and Kris are popping out of the frame at the bottom because the player is enacting control over both of them and UTDR meta like that #Kris’s clothes are lined with the same red as the soul because puppet imagery #OKAY I THINK THATS ALL OF IT???

i don't wanna take over the world, it sounds like a lot. but you know, laying siege to a golf course sounds really nice sometimes

#just me hi #i'm giggling thinking about it hfbvhs #you can use the sandbanks for cover and if you plan far enough ahead you can start farming around those little ponds #and you can steal golf balls :D and use them as currency ?? or just collect them :3 #and you could use the tennis ball guns to shoot the balls at people of course!! and you're supplied with sticks when you get there !! free #weaponry !! :D #and if you can hold out for long enough you could start planting rose and blackberry bushes in places they wouldn't look #why? bc roses Always Come Back #and blackberries will take a minute but who can get mad at a blackberry bush !! nature's surprise :D #oh and of course you could have a noble steed too (golf cart) !! :DD #and you could make the building a castle #and make a little gnome town in the fields once the battle is over #OH you could build a miniature golf in and around the town too :D for the funsies #/places are very cool i like places #could some be used better? oh yea for sure #i have dreams for abandoned malls hfvbs - some of my favorite places ever #that's one big odd thing i want. to have a mall to live in hfhs :3 #is it a lot of space ? ye. but it's also SOO much space.. the possibilities !! #//anyway i Need to go for a walk in a city sometime soon lol #i miss the riverwalk aaa #GASP campus martius during the winter. my dearest #i didn't realize the threshold for being a city was so low lmao ?? like man these are just big towns what is this hfvbsh #//but aside from the city pining MAN #i got to drive earlier today ('got to' they put me in the seat and it wasn't very fun hfvbshf) and oooohhh #you know that feeling on a roadtrip when it's all worth it for just a little while.maybe when you broke over the top of a hill or looked up #from whatever you were doing to find a storm ahead and the rear lights of the cars seemed to blink in agreement with how gorgeous it all is #just that hfbsh :3 #i like places a lot. sobs [<- crying candy hearts] #//okey i'm goin to go do my somethings now hfvhs :3 :D #music and caffeine are SO good ehehhehghhg [slinkies away so fast]

Day 307: this might be objectively the most incomprehensible drawing ive ever put on this account and the fucked up part is if u knew the context it'd all make sense.

Arakawa family brain rot: I just had the saddest thought about Masato returning from America, but from Masumi's perspective. He's prolly excited to see his son again despite the relationship tension. He's heard Masato has been doing great. His attitude has improved with his health. Maybe things will get better if he tries hard enough.

Maybe there's a chance to fix things.

And there isn't. Masato's just as vindictive and mean and manipulative as he ever was. And Arakawa finally has to mourn the son he never had. The son he told the world had died.

Do you think he ever regretted letting Masato get away with murder? Regretted that it wasn't Ichiban he still had in his life? I have a hard time with this because he loves Masato so much. I just wish he'd had the son who loved him out in the world with him y'know.

But we all know Masato ain't built for prison.

And I can't imagine like... Seeing Jo. Being relieved to see him again but immediately losing confidence because Jo looks so much more *tired* than he did. Ever together and composed but not really His Jo anymore. Not in the same way. It is never the same after he was gone so long.

I'm sure there are moments or even days where they fall into old patterns but I can't help but feel like (if Jo did in fact go to America w Masato) that that would be a defining shift in the relationship between Jo and Masumi.

Idk what this is really about but I got in my Arakawa feelings (I think be instared too long at the picture you posted). 🫰 Thanks for listening to me ramble byyyye~

EVERY DAY of my life i think of arakawa wondering if what they did regarding masato was 'the right choice'- like OF COURSE it was masato literally wouldnt have made it yet if it was the right choice why does it feel like such the wrong choice yeah...

#snap chats #im gonna throw up saying this but like i vaaaaaggguely tickled that topic in the recent fic i posted #not too much but. definitely alluded to the fact ive thought about it.. and have thought bout arakawa thinkin about it.. #god Thrwing Up tho because the beginning f the ask is reminding me of a fic i wrote where masato and jo come back #it doesnt focus on masato for too long but it does follow the vibe of 'arakawa wants to reconnect with masato but Nothings Changed' #so funny that this Forbidden Fic also just follows arakawa reonnecting with sawashiro.. it at least had a happier endin tho oops.. #i think initially seeing sawashiro again could be good for arakawa.. things would prob be fine.. #but with masato- or aoki- back in japan and him Doing His Thing he's definitely going to call for sawashiro more #meaning sawashiro and arakawa are going to be around each other less and less #yk its what arakawa wants tho- for aoki to be given top priority cause thats his son innit #but of course that also means sawashiro doesnt have much time to hang around.. #i realy want them to have a fight about aoki Custody Battle Momence Right but i cant imagine either of them yelling at each other #i cant even really imagine arakawa raising his voice either... at most he just talks very sternly when he's mad i think #GOD it feels weird typnig all this again cause i have typed all this type of thinking in fics lately jAJLKEJVLEKJVW #POINT IS big agree. have thoought extensively regarding these situations #and that reminds me i shoudl... finish taht other fic i started... that i shared with you... #they can have a . nice moment i t hink :) //screams//

Then all us young lads, we were sent to the side streets

To stop the police breaking through

And with swift hands we made strong barricades

Out of anything we could use

And they came to charge us, but they couldn’t barge us

With fists, batons, and hooves

With as good as we got, we withstood the lot

For we would not be moved

We would not be moved

Told through the words of 16 year-old Stockton-born Johnny Longstaff who was one of an estimated 100,000 people who defied the police to stand in solidarity with the Jewish people of London’s East End, blocking the route of a British Union of Fascists march on October 4, 1936.

#the young'uns #tagging as #discworld #night watch #Spotify #music #i stg discworld is one big lifelong history lesson #but also i just discovered the young'uns and they are amazing #and the fact they wrote a song about the battle of cable street is a cherry on top

And I thought my unhinged beyblade dreams were over but…

There was this movie

Where Phi was the villian ofc

But

It wasn’t like a normal beyblade “oh we will be battle you with pieces of plastic” because

the protagonists

were ✨magical girls✨

yes, you heard me right

✨magical girls✨

#Lmao who was in this magical girl squad you ask??? The only people I can remember of the top of my head where Valt and Bel but #I know that there were 6 other people making the grand total eight. Eight gremlins battling against just some guy with white hair #I think the cruelest part of the entire ordeal was that throughout the movie someone (It was either Aiger or Hyde) #Kept destroying all Phi’s stuff ( He had a bunny🥺🥺🥺… next scene dead😳😳 that poor bunny was stabbed 😞😞) #Most weird part?? At the climax Phi found Vyce (Omega strikers) and Octavia (Omega strikers) and they all fused together into some sort of #Acient deity. I know big shocker #Valt and company then proceeded to Beat said Deity by stabbing its shoulders. #Yes you heard me right. his shoulders 😭😭😭 #You know? I should stop questioning this dream. Dreams are weird in nature lol #beyburst #beyblade burst #phi beyblade

[jrueships]

why is Jare kinda hot lol like even in that video w kyrie i was thinking he sounded so silly but he looked good doing it!

do you forgive him for this because i dont

#JAREN WILL BE KNOWN FOR MANY CRINGEFAIL THINGS IN MY MIND #(thats how my favs become my favs. they just plague me with their LOSERNESS) #but doing individual praise research on d*llon dinosaur head brooks marks the TOP of that VERY EXTENSIVE LIST #'LiKe A LiOn LION EMOJI' omg just say he folds you and spare us this hell jaren #OK to be not joking tho he is so handsome fr #like damson idris levels #the way he got his big nose and cheesy lil grin from his parents #his eyes are soooo pretty i love drawing him so much so much #hes gorgeous #jaren #ted asks #my jarebear dunks are only an act of love i SWEAR yall know only the stutter of my desire. my LUST #by all means it is CARNAL #but it is so carnal... i must Help him. by Not Helping Him. #i think bcs pg and him are so attractive some ppl might not look to deep into a pretty thing bcs they dont think #they have visual access to any depth that they can explore unlike a broken thing that is forced to bank on #the attraction of personality or actions first aka offer more opportunities of accessible exploration via inviting a superior confidence #it's like say two caves. one is very pretty on the outside and smooth. the other is dank and decrepit #ppl who enter either cave can want with the pretty one: a basic exploration. nothing too deep. not much trekking. here for the sights #not the frights. stand and admire rather than any hands on changes or battles #ppl who enter the dank cave expect smthing that pulls more than conventional attraction. expect having to toil and triumph #expect the unexpected. actually TRY to go deeper. unlike the pretty cave explorers who go the length the scheduled tour allows them #they dont expect anything thats not already told to them by the guide or in the brochure and dont ever plan on expecting at all #BUT I WILL DO JUSTICE FOR BOTH CAVES BY EXPLORING FHE UNEXPLORED ! VALUEING THE UNVALUED!! #i think the pretty cave IS deep (but bcs i am fucked up and unwell. i humanize better from the negatives) so i VERY LOVINGLY #treat it a little less formal. and for the dank cave? i will offer it some politeness! some respect it rarely gets in a method #that doesnt involve an exchange of some kind #ANYWAYS this is just a general explanation of WHY i like being playfully mean to my favs BUT THAT DOESNT MEAN THEYRE NOT MY FAVS #i love them. jaren is gorgeous. and he is also cringe. as is pg. i love them. i hate them. they are my favs 🥰🥰 #TY for appreciating him anon I LOVE JAREN LOVE!!!!!!! he gets overshadowed by some of his other grizzlies antics sometimes

#big gender rant ahead i just need to write down my thoughts #personal #so i think im a he/him trans lesbian?? #i think ive been denying my feminine side for a long time now but middle school me was right. well. half right #idk why id built up some weird barrier in my mind about being trans and being a lesbian #but now im like more sure than ever #i still dont know if i could call myself a woman. and i thought i was so adamant about not using she/her again but it honestly? #doesn't bother me that much anymore. its not my preference but its not as soul crushing as it used to be #i have these weird subliminal gender rules for myself that ive been beating myself down with even though i #understand that theyre fake and dont hold anyone else to them. so why have a double standard? cant i have a fun gender? #ever since high school its been an uphill battle just letting myself live freely and having self confidence #i just turned 24. i dont have to be beholden to stupid hormonal teenage self loathing anymore #the world is a beautiful place and gender is just made up anyway. so why cant i be trans and butch? who cares?? #i think i worded it well in my last personal post. ive been living a gender of convenience #but fuck that! i want the gender that makes sense to me! that makes me happy! its my life and i should live it how i want to! #...i still have some regrets about my top surgery. i wish i wasnt so weirdly flat chested now. #but hopefully the fat will redistribute eventually and itll look more natural as the years go on.. #but i definitely dont regret going on T. i love my deep voice and my body hair #anyway if you've read this far thanks for listening to my mad ramblings #and dont forget you can have a fun gender too!

[creates a new guy instead of drawing the guys I already have]

#youni originals #neon's crew #no name for him yet but he is a he/him #and he likes men #these images were drawn bottom to top so the colored one is the first concept and that's why it has no tattoos #i started drawing the big one and decided i didn't want to draw clothes but did want to draw something so. tattoos. #they're mostly space maps registering where he's been #and counters for battles or fights won probably #anyways. this is what watching star wars does to a man who loves star wars. makes her create new ocs #ps that head tentacle is prehensile. he can grab shit with it. and the chopped off one's tip is something useful not just decorative #but idk what. i'm thinking a 'key' to connect to computers but that's mostly me star wars brain speaking #tal

YEAAAHHH WOOO I FINALLY REACHED MAX LVL !!!!!! this is the first time I've ever been able to do something like this in a game so I am Very proud of myself rn

#leechies rambles #xc3 #bounces up and down !!!!!! #now i can finally do the max lvl 99 challenge battles........ #AND FACE OFF AGAINST ALL THE BIG BADDIES !!!!!! #unique monster at the top of Gormott's back im Coming For You (can't remember the name of the actual place)

[vinkumakkara]

i think you were originally supposed to properly duke it out with Julius at the end of Revelation because of some lines that seem to go unused in the final game. idk why they chose to have Boss just shoot him in a cutscene instead, maybe to make them seem more villainous? but Julius also fuckin sucks so i would’ve been good either way honestly, would’ve loved to kill that old man myself but his death is perfectly appropriate as is

#a big boss battle with a frail grandpa prolly would've been a bit too over the top when you consider the context. they played it straight #on purpose. but anyways #reading too much into a few vague lines but i think Julius was gonna backstab Boss AGAIN #and i think that sounds sooo freakin entertaining. would love to experience it as an alternate ending at least

[box-dwelling]

Yeah because those cases were actually fun.

You don't get to mock turn about goodbyes and reclaimed if the case your giving me is dull as shit and drawn out to hell.

I literally stopped this case half way through to replay goodbyes because I needed to remember that this series isn't actually bad and boring and it's just this case. Keep her name out of your dirty fucking mouth

#literally i want so fucking bad to play some of the cases in this game #defending trucy? battling Phoenix as apollo? seeing maya? ema coming back? simon and athena defense team? another apollo backstory? #wedding case? im so down for all of that #but accessing it requires me getting through this fucking thing that is quite possibly the most boring vase this series has ever given me #i could power through big top #my limits are being tested here #im also very grumpy because i didn't save and had to skip through a ton of dialogue and that took like an hour #but i hated this case before then too #what if 5-2 lost all its charm? #what if we gave it insane stakes and then never took them seriously? #what if every fucking chracter sucks #ahalbi is fine but he is bland #panye is panye and thus actively annoying #rayfa looks like she might be interesting later but right now is deeply grating #nick is nick. hes good but he needs more to work with and he is weird girlless which really makes you appreciate having them there #i miss athena #i miss her so much man #please weirdest of weird girls turn up and make this tolerable
