#after baby is born

[yutaan]

“Yutaan,” you may say, “you’ve already made so much art of Jiang Cheng holding baby Jin Ling and crying on him. You do not need to make any more.” YES TRUE but CONSIDER! Is there ENOUGH art of Jiang Cheng holding baby Jin Ling and crying on him? No there is not!! I can do many variations on this most excellent theme.

Anyway happy birthday Jiang Cheng! Your present is cuddles with your baby nephew!

#jiang cheng #jin ling #the untamed #mo dao zu shi #papercraft #papercutting #paper art #my art #tbf Jin Ling was born after Jiang Cheng's birthday and so TECHNICALLY newborn baby JL cannot be JC's birthday present #BUT Jin Ling is always a gift #anyway this is another one that is intended for the holiday sale

Did leo deal with his pregnancy differently or was it the same as donnie?

Leo's pregnancy was very different from Donnie's! For him, quite frankly, the pregnancy was the easy part.

the really hard part came after.

#handing postpartum depression to leo like its a present. merry christmas-- #he and donnie have. like. basically the opposite experiences in a lot of ways. #dont worry tho leo gets better. he has his whole ass family and lots of friends and a wonderful partner to get him through it #antidepressants are also extremely helpful #but for the first month or two after kame is born his stupid hormones and brain chemicals really put him through it #also the fact that leos baby was the most high maintenance fussy anxious cry-y baby ever did NOT help tbh #gemini au #rottmnt #rise of the tmnt #tmnt #tmnt 2k18 #rottmnt leo #rise leo #tw pregnancy #cw pregnancy #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rise of the turtles #rottmnt donnie #rottmnt disaster twins #fidgetwing #usagi kame

this feud's been going on for approximately this long

#suicide mention in tags #god hugo looks so much like both of his maternal grandparents </3 he would have gotten along w both of them so well #they were quirky awkward middle school teachers they died in a car accident when mrs. villareal was just a baby #so i'm actually not sure she would have even met jacques if they lived and hugo wouldn't exist. but LOOK #benicio only ever met hugo he died not long after he was born #look at them they're all color coordinating then nancy's terrible terrible father ruins it #bad. idk if anyone ever bothered to do the math on that one unfinished wikipedia extra i did #but yes ~30 year age difference between them. she was 22 when she had nancy she killed herself when nancy was 11 #ts4 #ts4 cas #the sims 4 #this is the fall: extras #dominique #benicio #chester #queenie #elena #hector #jacques villareal #nancy landgraab

did john decide which of his friends would be the necromancer and which would be the cavs when he brought them back from the dead, or was that random?

I wish we knew for sure! John's friends ending up 50/50 adepts vs. non-necromancers is obviously one of TM's premises and was done for doylistic reasons first and foremost, but I don't think we have enough elements to conclusively interpret it as intentional in-universe.

Putting aside any kind of authorial intentions, this is what we know:

» The rate of necromancers as part of the population hovers around 30%. John's core group being 50% adepts is way off from that, and could point to manipulation, but also we're working with a very small sample size. Think about how it's very possible to get head five times in a row when flipping coins; probabilities are much less accurate on a smaller scale. I don't believe it's out of the realm of possibilities that a group of 10 people had exactly 5 necromancers in it.

» Harrow's birth. The Reverend Parents made sure she would be a necromancer by manipulating the embryo with thanergy. It's clearly not a known practice among the Houses at large, and John calls it "a sort of Resurrection" — implying that he could be able to do the same with thalergy. However, this doesn't confirm that he actually DID.

In the same conversation, John says, "This was all different before we discovered the scientific principles," which I think is also worth noting. The fact that he understands NOW how you could get an embryo to grow into a necromancer doesn't mean that he had that knowledge at the time of the Resurrection. It also doesn't mean that the same identical process would apply to making formerly-dead-people into necromancers as they got brought back to life.

It could very well be that necromancy was a generalised side-effect of the Resurrection that affected some people more than others; or it could be that John DID do something different when bringing back some people that conferred them necromantic aptitude. Even if it's the latter, I don't think we can take for granted that 1) it was intentional and 2) he fully knew what the side effects would be.

» Ulysses and Titania. Counterpoint! It's also worth noting that John's "test cases" turned out to be one (1) adept and one (1) non-adept. Like I said above, this could still be a random bi-product of the Resurrection... but given Ulysses and Titania's whole everything, their dichotomy reeks of control group. They are a big point in favour of the "John did it on purpose" column.

Still: I still don't think we can tell for sure that John knew from the moment of Resurrection that he was giving some people death powers, and how that'd turn out in the long run. Like I said above, he could have done something different when resurrecting Ulysses vs. Titania, but it doesn't mean that he knew what would happen.

(Obviously, this argument only makes sense if we assume that Ulysses and Titania were among the very first batch of resurrected. I personally think they were, but obviously it's not confirmed)

» The inner circle. From NtN

I could only trust the inner circle. My scientists, my engineer, my detective, my lawyer, my artist, my nun, my hedge fund manager. My diehards. The ones keeping the lights on.

Putting aside the fact that Lyctors exist the way they are because Tamsyn needed them to exist, and looking at the Canaan House necro/cav pairings from John's point of view: why not give ALL his friends magical powers? That's something I struggle to wrap my head around, for about half a dozen different reasons.

Mind, I don't think John picking and choosing who gets to be a necromancer is that far-fetched, but from a #character point I find it less likely than the alternative (he didn't do it on purpose but turned it to his own advantage). IF it turns out to be canon, I'd be really curious about what the watsonian reasoning for it, beyond "this needed to happen."

Most meta posts I've seen that take for granted John picked and chose his future necromancers ascribe him a level of foresight, knowledge, and long-term planning that I simply don't think he'd have had at the time (not to mention the mental lucidity). To quote HtN John again, "[he] had never been God" before. I truly think he was winging it at least 60% of the time.

#Anonymous #ask #tldr: I think it's possible this is the angle Taz is going with but I don't think it's a given with the elements we have so far #I think if it turns out to HAVE been intentional on John's part #it's gonna be one of these plot points that exists because the book needed them to exist and everything else took shape around it #like how everyone on the Ninth stopped making babies after Harrow was born although there was a whole generation of childbearing age #tlt thoughts #tlt theories #ejg #elle tlt posting #tlt

ugly baby rivers is gonna be in my brain forever

its not his fault..... newborns are just ugly

(i did some rambling in the tags if u wanna look at it lol)

#species swap au #ss descent #ss rivers #ss fire #theyre so weird. puppies. i think ancients used to have....... litters. i guess. of two to three babies #but they began to evolve to have less #and now its like. twins are pretty common but more often than not you have one #lots of people are opposed to having kids at all because its viewed as cruel to introduce someone to a cycle where they are so aware of- #-their entrapment #i dont think either pregnancy was intentional but fire was probably more welcome #they didnt know she was pregnant with rivers until shed already been for a couple months- and then he was born.... probably like 7 or 8- #-weeks early #fire wasnt on purpose either but they knew earlier and didnt have any complications #they were probably recommended not to go through with fires pregnancy since rivers birth was so hard on her and he was so sick #but i think now that shed had a kid and come to like the idea shed probably be happy to have another baby #i think they have fire mmmmmmmmmm three years after rivers (this is the same gap as me and my sibling. easy to remember) #takes your ask as an excuse to babypost #druid draw

Okay so realistically speaking, giving birth is an excruciating, painful nightmare, and from the few Crocodad fics I've seen most people seem to prefer to write realistic pregnancy and make Luffy's birth a (physically) painful thing. Because it makes sense, it might be more relatable for some writers that way etc, and that's perfectly fine (like genuinely, it's not an issue at all, this is not a critique or a complaint)

God I don't know how to make this segue- Have any of you watched Ore Monogatari!! (My Love Story)? It's a great early 2010s romantic comedy series, funny as hell, super cute and sweet, would reccomend, but that aside. During the series the protagonist Takeo's mother gets pregnant and she ends up giving birth to Takeo's baby sister. And it's that scene, where Takeo's baby sister is born, that I keep on thinking back to whenever I wonder how Luffy's birth might've gone.

Takeo and his mother alike are Sturdy Motherfuckers. Like absolute gigachads, borderline superhuman, it's great and it's funny as hell. And because of that near superhuman nature... Takeo's mother goes to give birth at 4:15 pm. And she has finished giving birth at 4:16 pm. One fucking minute is what it took for this woman to bring a child into this world. An absolute legend

The screencaps do not do justice to how fucking funny this is in the actual episode

And so like

Like we know Crocodile's been through absolute hell, being an amputee and all. And as Domino told us at the entrance of Impel Down, we also know the man did not even flinch when forced into Impel Down's traditional 200 Celsius cleansing bath (or 392F)

So Crocodile has better pain tolerance than the average person. Like, you might have to put in a bit of effort to cause him actually hurt. So if giving birth to Luffy was an absolute cakewalk for Crocodile, not only would it make perfect sense in-universe and be completely in-character for him, but also

It would be objectively funny as hell

#Moon posting #OP Meta #Crocodad #I just. I just wanted to throw this out there. For your considderation. #We all love good drama and angst and the feels but also. Considder The Funny Alternatives. Considder The Comedic Potential #Croc's water breaks and Iva-chan rushes out to get like towels or something #They're out for like 30 seconds and when they're back the baby's already born. No screaming no shouting no nothing #Croc just complains why Iva took so long and tells them to help him clean up the mess #And Iva-chan's just like [Enel Face] #Like yeah that's the good fucking shit lmao #ALSO: Again we don't know if Baby Luffy was an itty bitty tiny baby or a Jumbo Sized Baby so like #If Luffy was like average size (or small) while Crocodile's a fucking giant then??? #Like?? I would like to imagine and pretend giving birth to an itty bitty baby would be easier than if the baby was proportional to Croc #So the baby essentially just falling out of Croc without any effort could make sense. In a ''this is a shounen comedy manga'' kinda way #I have edited this post like 10 times after posting it oh my god why is this post such a trainwreck of piss poor phrasing and typos #Should've let it sit in my drafts for another 2 weeks clearly

I made this because I've seen multiple fanarts of Jonathan with all the later jojos as kids, and they usually make Johnny a kid too! But Johnny is also an old man with his many descendants and now must feel the burden of fatherhood

Children featured from left to right: Kei Nijimura, Dragona Joestar, Jodio Joestar, Yoshikage Kira, George Joestar III, Joseph Joestar

Bonus:

#i made this entire drawing just because i wanted to draw baby jodio with that fucking hairstyle #i only remembered after coloring that dragona was born male and probably wouldnt have afro puffs or pink clothes but whatever #gender affirmed baby #jodio being the problem child #george is johnnys son btw for anyone who forgot. yes thats what he looks like #i only included the descendants that we saw the appearance of idk if i missed anybody #on one hand i thought gyro would be bad with kids #see sugar mountain spring. but also hes the eldest of his siblings so #modmakesart #jojo's bizarre adventure #jojo no kimyou na bouken #jojolands #jojolion #jojos bizarre adventure #jjba #jjba art #jjba fanart #fanart #johnny joestar #steel ball run #sbr #jojo part 7 #jojo part 8 #jojo part 9 #Kei Nijimura #Dragona Joestar #Jodio Joestar #Yoshikage Kira 8 #George Joestar III #Joseph Joestar

Danny has been living with the bat fam for a couple of months. Danny first meet them when he was living on the street, Danny had been mistaken for a Wayne so many times that he could rival the actual Wayne family in how many times he has been kidnapped.

The bat family has all become attached to this feral child which has caused many of the rogues to cry and scream. When he what missing they all begin to panic, and search for him that's when they found out Danny had run away from his very creepy godfather, they all suit up and went to save him.

The bat's learned that Danny is called a halfa a being that is half dead and half living that stands on the line of dead and alive, so after getting him from his very Creepy godfather who is also a half they thought that they would not have to worry about any more surprises that were until Danny came down holding an infant that was a couple of hours old

#My post #dpxdc #dp x dc #dc x dp prompt #The Waynes had seen Danny around and got attach #When danny disappeared they what carzy trying to find him #A green posted note told them were to find Danny #Danny had been Kidnapped by VladWho was in the process of distorting Ellie #Danny was able to save her core #After danny came down holding Ellie the bats had to question themselves if Danny is Trans or if it was a species of thing #He could be trans if you want but he did not birth Ellie he just protected her core until she could reform #He was expecting a teen #not a newly born baby now he needs to tell the rest so he could have helped to raise Ellie #Danny wants to keep his daughter half alive at least

Considering Vaggie say Vagatha isn't her name in episode 8, but in your AU, it's a mix of her maternal grandmother and her actual name, and considering how she correct Adam's prononciation of her name, I think Lute always made it clear to her that Vaggie (with a hard G) was her name, with Vagatha only being some weird/stupid cover name to avoid mockeries, and this combined to Lute being the one who chose it mean that once arriving in hell, Vaggie use Vagatha on official papers out of habit, but never answer to it because she's annoyed (not hate, annoyed) by it as much as she hate (hate, not annoyed) vaggie with a soft g like adam say it.

Technically Vaggie with soft Gs is her birth name since that’s what Adam called her, but Lute, while she wouldn’t fully defy Adam on the name choice, did not want her daughter going by a name like that, so she changed the pronunciation to have the hard Gs instead, and when asked about her daughter’s unique name, Lute claimed it was inspired by her own mother. So a lot of people, including Vaggie herself at one point, assume her full name is Vagatha, when Vaggie is just her name.

mostly joking toh theory: amity and emira are both trans girls, and the fact that they got to choose their names themselves is the only reason why neither of them ended up getting named "odalia jr."

#eliot posts #toh #the owl house #amity blight #emira blight #odalia just strikes me as the type of person to name a daughter after herself #i have a couple relatives who named their kids after themselves and it's always seemed so fucking weird to me??? #like i cannot imagine being like. hi i'm eliot and this is my son eliot. #honestly thinking about it there's a good chance my dad would've tried to name me after himself if i were amab #my mother wanted to name me axl but i think my dad could've won her over #and either named me after himself #(either his legal name or his nickname‚ which was after an uncle of his bc he was apparently the spitting image of) #or named me after his own father. which would make me the third of my cousin group to bear that name #(though ironically only one of said cousins was named after our grandpa. the other was named after his dad who married in to the family) #also apparently even as an afab baby i was apparently the spitting image of one of those cousins #to the point where my mother told me her first thought upon seeing me after i was born was just ''oh god she looks just like [cousin]'' #for an extra layer of Bullshit: vincent cat's name at the shelter was the same as my dad's nickname so i had to change it #bc having a cat with sorta the same name as my dad whom i have a Complicated and Bad relationship with would feel Weird #this is all irrelevant but i just need you to know how batshit the name situation on my dad's side of the family is #my mother's side is mostly uncomplicated except for the surname situation going on #like i have no clue who my mother's maiden name came from and at this point i'm too afraid to ask #but yea since i was afab my given first name was just a random name that my mother thought was pretty #my given middle name tho WAS after a family member #specifically my rich childless aunt on my dad's side #the original plan was just a second random name my mother liked but then i popped out prematurely on that aunt's birthday #so my dad's OTHER sister (who had barged in uninvited to the delivery room) told my mother #''hey it's [childless aunt's] birthday today. she's rich and has no kids. name your child after her and she might help pay for college'' #but my chosen name and middle name are unrelated to anyone. just two names i really liked and thought fit me + my gender.
