#I gotta take breaks sometimes

[godofvillains]

((Will probably be back on this blog once Shiggy shows back up on BNHA. Right now he's honk shoo honk shoo resting.

I'll still be on here time to time, replying to little things whenever I feel like it, but best bet is to find me on @3-n-a or @dark-overcoat

#Ti speaks #yo I've had this muse for FIVE years #I gotta take breaks sometimes

You ever think about how the chain has to change their step sizes and like general gait in order to stay together as a group?

Like, I imagine Four walks with purpose. He's a focused lil guy- he's got places to be. But Time's strides have got to be much larger than his. When traveling as a group they must have all had to readjust.

Four and Time side-by-side walk animation but every couple steps Four has to do a skip hop or a lil jog to catch up. Also consider Four walking normally but Time is taking itty bitty steps.

#linked universe #I was in marching band and I work as a camp counselor over the summer #I can gwt across camp in 8 minutes on my own but if traveling with the itty bitties that's a half hour long trip #+ you gotta factor in time for water breaks #sometimes it's the older kids who lag. it's just generally how motivated the groups are to get places #but we are trained to like- be sure to keep in mind to take smaller steps when traveling with the littles cause they have short legs #I can keep my rhythm the same but make my step size smaller #anyways- how would this apply to the chain???! #rays random ramblings #lu analysis

Thinking abt Ollie befriending a murder of crows around the skatepark using french fries and they bring little trinkets that he puts in the chain link fence

#and if he finds one dead hell take it out in the woods behind the skatepark and make a lil burial for it out of flowers n pretty leaves ect. #and theyve probably been aquainted for YEARS since that boys spent most of his time in the skatepark since he was like 14 so like #generations of crows just know him #him always leaving a lil bit of food out for the crows wehn he eats over there #all hes gotta do sometimes is lift his arm with a fry in his hand and theyll come and pick it out #ollie #anytime the squad questions him he just goes 'you must always befriend the crows 👁👁 whereever you go👁👁'' #thrm just bring like oooook buddy #anyway loling at crows on my break now i ogtta go back to hell CYA #looking

feeling bad about my art lately. will probably not post for a while. but i wanted to at least dump some stuff here before i retreat into my hidey hole

#hivemind tv #riley savage #graydon weaver #hmfcu #quadeca #jane remover #eden burke #my art #2023 #fanart #doodles #its like. augh. longtime fleouriarts followers are familiar with my eternal tango with posting art online #doing this since i was 11 has like rotted my brain and made me rely wayyyy too much on external validation to motivate myself #and every year or so it gets bad enough that i take a break. but the break usually only lasts a month before i miss the feeling #and come back and then the cycle repeats #its probably worse now bc this is a fandom where getting seen by the creators is not really that hard #so there have been times where im like 'well idk if i wanna draw this. but if i do maybe hivemind will rt it :-)' #NO!!! THATS NOT WHAT ART IS ABOUT!!!!! i cant keep letting myself get addicted to the numbers going up man i gotta get out of here #and i was reading a quad interview from around when idmthy got released. cus hes also brain poisoned like this. but he managed to get out #and now just kinda comes online to release music and then leave #i need to be like that. i need to take a break from art posting thats so long that i come back as a changed man odysseus style #idk. its been so long since i drew stuff that no one gets to see but me. all the art i keep to myself is just out of embarrassment #i need to relearn how to draw stuff just for the love of creation and not “maybe people online will like this one” #or “this new thing came out i need to prove my love of it by drawing it” #sometimes it leads to good art but more often than not it just makes me feel worse #whatever. if any of yall are in the hivemind jane or quadeca discord i MIGHT still post stuff there. but otherwise ill keep to myself and m #friends for a while i think #woooooo this is queued to post while im in orgo lab everyone wish me luck with my thin layer chromatography

reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher

Ghost is entering the base gym at 3 AM when he hears a solid thump, followed by a grunt and swearing coming from the obstacle course area. 

"Fuck!... Fuck this…!" 

Ghost stops in his tracks, looking over the area, confused. He decides to investigate the sound, thinking either someone's in trouble, or there's someone who isn't supposed to be there. He slowly makes his way to the obstacle training course.

"What in the bloody hell was that?" He whispered to himself under his breath. 

As he approaches closer, he sees that it's Artemis, Task Force 141's medic. 

"Fuck this! How the hell am I gonna keep up with them?!" She grumbles, unaware of Ghost's presence. 

Simon freezes upon realizing who it is, the freezing overcome by surprise when he connects that it's Artemis, and that it's 3 AM. 

'What is she doing here?' He thinks to himself. He slides his mask off, waiting to see if she'll notice him standing there. 

"Arrrggghhh!" She groans as she kicks one of the obstacles. "I'm never gonna fucking get it!!" 

His lips curl into a smile, he's trying not to laugh as he's watching her. 

"Artemis?" Simon asks, trying to get her attention. Has she still not seen him? 

She turns around at the sound of her name. "Simon!... I… I didn't think anyone else would be here at this hour. What are you doing up?" Her eyes are wide, and her face flushes, mildly embarrassed at getting caught. 

He smiles, walking up to her. "I couldn't sleep. What are you doing here, anyway?" He asks as he comes to a stop in front of her. 

He's slightly curious, but he doesn't want to push her because something doesn't add up. Her eyes are wide, like she's been caught, which she has. It's 3 AM for God's sake. But, he can't make assumptions. 

"Umm…" She stutters, embarrassed at the situation. "I've been trying to work more on the obstacle course, because I feel like I can't keep up with the team on the field… I… I just need more training… But… It's embarrassing to do it when others are watching…" 

Simon's eyebrows furrow in thought. "It's barely past 3 AM, shouldn't you be sleeping? It's a good thing you're taking the initiative, but shouldn't a full night's sleep be more important? You need it if you wanna be at 100% for your duties when the time comes." He says, trying not to sound like he's talking down to her, but more like he actually cares about her well-being. He's a little worried if he's being honest. 

"Yes, but… I just… I worry about being the weak link… I know my primary job is being the team's medic, but I don't want people to have to worry about me on the field… y'know?" She tries to explain. 

Simon nods, understanding her reasoning. She doesn't want to be the weak link, and she wants to be prepared. Makes sense. Everyone has to be on the top of their game when the Task Force works together. "I see your point, but I can assure you, love, no one thinks you're the weak link. We're all a team here, we all care about each other. It's okay, we're not going to let anything happen to you, alright? That includes during missions, we'll keep you safe. I'll keep you safe." He says, trying to lift her spirits. 

"Alright," Artemis sniffles. "Sorry for bothering you." 

Simon shakes his head. "You aren't bothering me. I'm glad you care enough and are motivated enough to try. I truly appreciate it." He says, smiling softly. 

"I'd prefer it if you kept to a normal sleep schedule though. I don't want you to burn yourself out." He adds, gently taking her hand and squeezing it. He just doesn't want her to push herself too hard. 

Artemis nods, squeezing his hand back, and taking a step closer to him. 

He wraps his arms around her shoulders. She needed this, and he knew it. 

"How about you stop for tonight… You've done plenty to prove yourself, right? I mean, you've just ran the course a dozen times on your own. You're clearly prepared." He says gently. 

"How...how did you know I've run it a dozen times? How long have you been standing there?" She whispers curiously. 

His brows furrow, thinking. "I uh… I've been watching… I guess." He says, sounding rather guilty. "Only to make sure you were okay. I didn't want to interrupt. I hope I didn't make you uncomfortable.” He says, looking a bit worried.

“No, sweetheart, you never make me uncomfortable.” Artemis says, as she leans her head on Simon’s shoulder.

He chuckled softly, feeling relief at knowing that him observing her didn’t make her uncomfortable.  “Alright, well, let’s go get you some rest, yeah? You need it. That’s a lot of training.” He says, hugging her tighter.

“Okay.” She yawns.

Her yawning signals that she really is tired, and that it’s definitely a good idea for her to go sleep. Simons nods, leading them to her barracks room. 

“Did anyone notice you come out here?” He asks, holding her hand as they walked down the hall. 

“I don’t think so. I’ve…been sneaking to the training room the past couple of nights…and I don’t think anyone has noticed…” She says hesitantly.

Simon turns to her, a look of shock across his face. ‘She’s been doing this for multiple nights?!’ “You’ve been sneaking to the training room? For multiple nights?! Artemis!!” Simon whisper-yells at her, shocked that tonight wasn’t the first time she’d been doing this. 

This was incredibly unsafe to be doing, especially alone. Sleep deprivation combined with intense training could be a recipe for disaster.

“Why didn't you tell me, or anyone else?” Simon asked, notes of concern sounding in his voice.

Artemis’ eyes started to water at Simon’s raised tone. “Because I need to be better…” She says in a small voice.

He sighs, feeling mildly upset. He didn't want her to be upset. He wrapped his arms around her, trying to provide some comfort. “Oh sweetheart, you are good enough…” He says, rubbing gentle circles into her back. “But you’re pushing yourself too hard.” 

He hates seeing her cry, he hates seeing her cry and watching her feel like she isn’t worthy, even though she absolutely is.

“Come on, try to get some sleep. Later we can talk, I’ll make you hot chocolate, the way you like it, and you can tell me more about what’s worrying you. For now, try to get some rest.” He offers softly.

“Ok.” Artemis sniffles. “I’m sorry.”

“You don’t have to apologize, love. I understand.” Simon whispers, as he presses a firm kiss to her head. “You’ll be okay. I promise.”

you know 99% of the time i get nice, totally reasonable, polite, and frequently kind asks on bearotonin. but every now and then i get some asks that just make me wanna reply snarkily so badly lmao

#the weird shit people send me #like unsolicited 'helpful suggestions' about how to run my blog better #or 'concerns' about the way i run it or some of the photos i post #and it takes a significant amount of self control not to be snarky #because i am not allowed to break brand continuity #but like #people really gotta learn that it's not cute or helpful to come into a stranger's inbox and critique/suggest they run their blog differentl #and i get that most of these (admittedly not that many but still frequent enough) asks are probably not meant to be obnoxious #like i'm sure the person who sent them doesn't have bad intentions #and probably just doesn't realize what they're doing is irritating and a basic etiquette no no #but it's still annoying #sometimes people just gotta learn to keep their opinions to themselves #not every opinion should be shared #just being clear 99.9% of the many asks i get are totally fine and nice #but because i get a fuckload of asks the 0.1% of annoying asks i get is substantial enough to get annoying and tiresome #don't mind me im just vague post venting here as a stress relief so i don't reply snarkily on bearotonin #okay im done ranting now #please ignore me lmao #Posts about bearotonin

Writing a smuttyWriting a saucy one-shot for a friend and WHOOO been a hot minute since I've written smut. Just finished writing/editing a blowjob scene and I think it's going pretty well ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

Crossing my fingers that I can get this posted by the end of the week! It's going to be a precursor one-shot to my assassin Spideypool fic Misfire (link included if you're interested).

If not, you wont' need to read the main fic to understand the one-shot and vice versa. This is just for fun :3

#Off to take a break and drink some water #then it's back to the fuckening! #Peter is getting what he wants most in his life #and that's to be railed so hard he doesn't remember his own name #I do give him nice things sometimes #but he's gotta earn it with a little bit of obligatory angst #because I'm incapable of writing anything Spider-Man related without angst involved #its not my fault he's a sad sopping wet little man #very excited to post it though! #its gonna be fun #peter parker #spider-man #fanfiction #writing #my writing #X-Gon Rambles

I really like your Jason character breakdown posts, his motivations are really interesting to me

Jasons motivations are quite funny to me bc they seem really complex but in actuality they're so fucking simple to understand

#ask #anon #hes my special little guy #so i have to break down his character constantly #but also im aware that i have a lot of jason takes #that a lot of his fans disagree with #this is on purpose #so i can pretend only i truly understand him #you gotta play the system sometimes

Vent and small announcement

Howdy guys, okay I'm just gonna jump straight into it just to sum it up, and say I'm going to take a weeeee break from the Psychonauts fandom for a bit. If you want to know why you can hit the read more

I can't really explain it but I've been getting a weird... "vibe"??? Or a feeling of some kind from the fandom for a good while now, and it's starting to get pretty bad now. I'm taking this chance to take a break from it so I don't completely lose my love for the series because I really do love these games.

This probably just the thing that happens to me with new fandoms, when it comes to the difference between fanon and canon for me. I think it could be just the huge difference between the two and its giving me whiplash (not literally) or something. Anyways, it makes me feel icky I guess.

It's funny though, because I've had a similar situation with the Bendy fandom a looong time ago, so this isnt anything new. Only it was the other way around. I was so obsessed with my fanon versions of the characters, that when I would go back to the original material, I'd feel weird about how different they were. I actually took a break from that one too and that's when I started really getting into the Zelda franchise.

Of course I then had a similar situation with the Zelda fandom, and then I went back to Bendy.... This is just a phase I have with all fandoms I become part of.

Its just my "Everything MUST be as CLOSE to CANON as humanly POSSIBLE" and my "OH but it'd be soooo cool if they were (insert headcanon) or they had (insert random detail)!" Mindsets battling it out and it tends to give me burnout A LOT and really stresses me out (for some.... reason...)

Its actually one of the reasons why I can never stick with a design for certain characters and why said designs are constantly changing. On the bright side this will give me a chance to expand my Zelda AU that I've wanted to do for a while!

It isn't a big deal, I'll still probably interact with some Psychonauts stuff, and you can still ask about aus and what not, but yeah. Just thought you should know!

#doodles rants #psychonauts #psychonauts 2 #Again #Not a big deal #This happens with almost every fandom I'm in #I just gotta take bit #This is definitely a stupid and dumb reason to take a break from a whole ass fandom #But my brain is just like that sometimes :/ #Unfortunately
