Only these characters so far, I’m barely on page March 20, 1960 ;((
Tumblr media
Aged up and stuff both random fun and tidbits based on the original comics
Charlie: Black long sleeve shirt under, hair grown out at the top but still cropped near nape and ears, evened proportions of face to play with the “roundness” yet still apply some angles resulting from getting older, a still insecured glow-up case
Linus: Black earrings, big eyes as per comic, shorter than everyone depicted, original catchphrase
Schroeder: slightly deeper color hair than Charlie, black turtleneck with rolled up sleeves, “beautiful eyes,” as per the words of Lucy whom I’m aware is a biased source
Violet: presented returning to her old pigtails, extra-tsundere to who had original won her heart for a while
Context based on comics: Linus usurped Schroeder as Charlie’s closest friend, so let’s have him compete for his place besides Charlie now that they’re all older.

there are several scandinavian horse breeds that would have fit sensibly in skyrim but for some reason the vanilla horse's conformation is pretty clearly based off a belgian draft

Double whammy of the Sam with a 10 year age difference having a conniption cause Tara is trying to go around sleeping with random guys
Sam was NOT prepared for handling a teenager, let alone a teenager with PTSD. She's barely feels like an adult herself, and only two years after finally getting her mother out of their lives, her little sister is nearly killed, all because of her.
Tara's 14 (&3/4) when Amber and Ritchie try to kill her in this AU, so let's not try and make that too 😬... hmm, got it.
In the aftermath, she does not cope well.
Tara's always had moments where she's chafed against Sam's authority, where she's been distant, especially since she became her legal guardian, but nothing like this. Sometimes it feels like Amber had managed to kill Tara after all, and she's left trying to care for a ghost. Sam wishes she could kill her all over again... and again, and again, for the rest of eternity, for the anguish she's caused her girl.
The attack at the hospital and again at Amber's only makes her injuries worse. In the end, it takes her leg 4 months to heal, and she was confined to the bed full-time for a month, with another month of being confined mostly to her bed. Needless to say, she doesn't cope well. Tara's not a baby anymore, and she can't stand to be coddled, can't stand the reminder that she isn't like the other girls in her class. She can't stand the fact she can't even dress and undress herself in this state. Can't stand to think of Amber.
And the pain, it's constant, it's everywhere, in her body, in her heart, in her head. The only time she's somewhat happy these days is under the influence of the painkillers that leave her floating between awake and asleep, where everything is fine and good. Sam can't bear to see her sister in this state, drugged up and absent. It's the only time she sees her sister smile anymore, and it hurts. But it's the only thing that keeps her going, and Tara's constantly in pain, so she keeps refilling the prescription. Later, she'll wish she was stronger, she'll wish she had listened to the part of her that said something was off. But Sam's never listening to herself, to anyone, over her sister.
Tara takes painkillers long after she needs them, and eventually, they stop providing the void she's always searching for. So she finds other options. Tara's newly 17 and lying beneath some guy, drugged out of her mind, in the basement of someone's house. They'd been making out for what felt like hours, when she felt his hand slip down her trousers, and then her sister had stormed into the room, throwing fists. What happens after that is as foggy as what came before that.
They move to New York.
Apparently, Sam is best friends with Gale fucking Weathers these days, because Sam gets a job with her, and that job apparently comes with an apartment. Tara finishes her school career online, in the corner of a studio or in a dressing room or the back of a news van, wherever Sam or Gale go, Tara is stuck being dragged around by them. She knows why. She's not stupid. She kind of hates Sam for it. She hates herself more for thinking such a thing, for being so weak.
She still has her vices, despite it all Sam never took her privacy from her. So Tara still has seedy chats and pictures and videos to distract herself with when she's feeling empty. It feels good to be loved, adored, for a little while. She can't bear to expose the emptiness inside of her to Sam, can't bring herself to talk about what happened to the therapists, to talk about Amber. Or the things she said, the things she did.
She's nearly 18 when they're attacked again. Ethan, Sam's clumsy assistant with the sweet smile and who always had a kind word for Tara, and their neighbour, Quinn, who liked variety in her men. Some of those men had little brothers she would introduce to Tara. They're Ritchie's family, and they want revenge.
Tara begins sleeping around as a coping mechanism after that. She won't go back to the drinking, and the drugs, she doesn't want to do that to Sam again. Her sister already has so much going on, she doesn't want to add to that. It doesn't even occur to her how much this would hurt her as well.

Sometimes I look outside my scope of mutuals and I'm like.....I'm glad I'm not them (whole essay in the tags)
#im going to ramble about a very touchy subject here but it pertains to 🐉♠️ which i am very open about shipping#apparently its Problematic or whatever 😭😭???? according to Some People#you know ive been thinking abt this for a while now but people really like spouting rhetoric abt how this or that is problematic without-#-really considering the specifics of why things are bad. things being bad are not the same as things possibly being uncomfortable#like people have an aversion to adult/minor ships or incest ships because these are real and tangible things that happen and are disgusting#i do feel like people have freedom over what they want to consume/create in fiction although those topics are an ick to me and i avoid it#but also you have to understand people dont like it primarily because of the realistic aspect of it and how it connects to reality#not a one to one but because reality already has these preexisting issues we naturally have an aversion to it#you cannot apply the same logic to like a dragon man x human ship because a dragon man is not going to scoop you from the sky#the ramifications of shipping an immortal and human are nonexistant and do not pertain to reality and cannot be judged on the same scale💀#well beside from the logic 🐉 is old in body but his mind develops in the way a fae would. and he is described to be young in fae#so up until now i assumed the normal assumption was to say that he is around ~18 in fae yrs by how he interacts with others in his yr#🐉 is like old in the way where hes lived for a long time and understands the passage of time#but hes processed it through the lens of a young person hence why he can come off as immature despite how old he physically is💀#like are we playing the same game?? if he was a well adjusted fully developed adult with a complete understanding of the world and stuff#like idk trein. none of the events in ch 7 would be happening. its kind of like a huge part of his character that despite his physical age#he IS still learning as he IS still young#i could go into a analysis of his character but thats for another time </33#anyways i see people . primarily young people. telling their mutuals you can or cant ship this and that#and im like its okay to not like ships if you personally find it uncomfortable but to police ur friends...for ships that arent even 'bad'#its insane to me...how do u live like this?#people really need to start thinking about the nuances and why things are the way they are in regards to fiction#instead of buying into that weird pr*ship/ant*ship thing 😭 ive always hated it its so dumb. my university professors wouldve hated it#theres no nuance like...none. personally i also think its why people have low reading comprehension these days too tbh#life is about looking at various viewpoints and coming up with your own opinion#not 'picking a side'💀 learn to form your own opinions. talk to people around you about it. do not constrict your opinions to black/white#its an extremely dangerous mindset to have even outside of literature and it makes you very susceptible to dangerous ideas/propaganda#anyways what im getting at is learn to have educated discussions with others and come up with your own opinions instead of picking a side#btw there is no right/wrong side in literary discussions. there is no good/bad side either. whatever you come up w someone will disagree#thats why its important to just believe what YOU believe in (and not parrot others💀). and also be open to change

Last Line Tag
Rules: Post the last line that you wrote, then tag as many people as your heart so desires, humans!
Tagged by @atomic-insomnia. Round one of the (logged) owed three, my human! If I owe you more, we’ll find out as I go poking throughout my notes again. Thank you so, so much, and I’m sorry for leaving it for so long!
“Thanks,” and, though visibly displeased with the situation, Kolisnyk eventually accepts the wordless offer, body unfurling from his admittedly entertaining slump and reaching out with his unwounded hand to grasp onto Calleum’s own. With little regards to either proper wound care or medical hygiene, Kolisnyk uses the bent and twisted fingers of his injured hand to drive into the soft earth, regaining purchase with the claw-like movement, before pressing the laceration in his palm down into the blackened topsoil. It’s with an irritable hiss that he then pushes down, using the combined momentum of his motions and Calleum’s swift tug to haul himself upwards. A momentary stagger overcomes him as he rediscovers the world on both feet, and Calleum’s hands hasten to balance him by his lower back and bicep, while Kolisnyk tilts and throws the other hand back out for some semblance of balance. He looks rather wretched, Calleum notes, while Kolisnyk continues to be quick as ever, readjusting and canting to the side, stabilizing as he shifts his weight onto the notably less muddied part of his body and the leg that doesn’t look half-beaten in its war against nature, and Calleum soon finds that he isn’t quite mature enough to reign in the soft breath of laughter that wells in his chest and releases with his observations.
From Pulse. This puppy took a little bit, with the brain constantly shifting words around and leaving me very, very confused every time I read it over. Hoping it ended up coherent. Kolisnyk is Riley, and this is the aftermath of what happens when he isn’t paying much attention, falling down an embankment, and he just so happens to do so while Calleum is absently wandering about the forest that surrounds their school somewhere during the low light of dusk, too. Riley then reveals himself to be much like any doctor, with an apprenticeship steadily underway in healing, but still making the rather poor choice of disregarding his own basic health - like slapping down a newly attained laceration in his hand into dirt.
Anyway... how are we liking the new tense? It gives me Hell~ But it’s functioning far better in terms of comprehension for me than past tense used to, and it’s all starting to flow quite nicely during the writing process, too.

#writing#my writing#last line tag#wip: pulse#A). WHAT DO YOU M E A N#What do you MEAN the LAST TIME I posted ANY SNIPPET was during MARCH??#B). I'm not quite sure when references with surnames became a thing but it's working quite well to establishing slow shifts in relations#and giving me an idea of where they are within each other's minds. there's a variant of some sort for everyone it seems#surnames being the most common as they accumulate partners in crimes like pokemon cards#and C). while rewriting the tense and figuring things out I've decided that it fits much better. Present. And I need to reevaluate ages#I had the unfortunate experience of interacting with folks around their canonical ages a month or so ago. It's not bad#but I've also never felt so out of the loop and old as well#I'm also steadily and slowly making Milena older and older to adjust and really need to stop doing that because soon she'll age out#even with the weird kinda school system I've got going on for my magical alien school#oh and bonus D) point -#screw the moving house thing. that's one of the reasons I've delayed stuff. I've given up and won't be leaving things hanging like that#probably to some degree at least but monthly stirring needs to be a thing again#I'm slowly forgetting how to do things and that just isn't on#if it means participating in writeblr while passively squishing my dog as she bowls over moving company employees so be it -#going to make myself be active again come hell or high water

Tolkien, in the thirties, after being asked by a German publishing house if he was Aryan: If you Germans continued in this fashion, being German will no longer be something to be proud of, and also your use of the word Aryan is not linguistically accurate, so chew on that.
Germans in the thirties: Continue in that fashion, to put it lightly.
Tolkien: I warned you!
Tolkien: Makes the word “Goth” mean “enemy” in elvish, and names the incarnation of evil “Morgoth”
Tolkien: And it serves you right!

I don’t think the whole “teenage girl in my twenties” thing is a new feeling by any means because god knows most people can attest to feeling like a fake adult, but I do think the pandemic had a hand in exacerbating it

I'm replaying my Cadash rogue who romanced Dorian because I am in an extremely dwarf mood and I just realised the Black Bonnet vibes of my dwarf struggling with the way he is seen by the world as a Carta thug and nothing more than a thug just to run into pretty, fancy noble Dorian who has its issues but somehow doesn't think all dwarves fall into the merchan/thug/blacksmith categories and drags him into whatever like of course Cadash is meant to be there too!
And they are both like so painfully aware of the image they project and trying so hard to be a good person and do the right thing and be what they want to be in their own way

in an attempt to work out a timeline, here's a vague series of events surrounding the squad prior to (and very early into) arr
(~60 years before present) Verre is born, raised, and trained in the Skatay Range as a scout.
(~30 years before present) Verre finds a strange device that leads Garlean invaders to her home village, destroying it in the process. In her grief she resolves to wander as an exile, seeking new technology in an attempt to curb her rampant curiosity and crushing guilt.
(~26 years before present) A hrothgar queen-to-be leaves her home village in an attempt to claim absolute freedom, though she is unknowingly pregnant at the time. She gives birth to a daughter during her travels.
(~25 years before present) Zezene "Zen" Zene arrives in Ul'dah claiming to hail from the freshly conquered Dalmasca, but no records of their life there exist. They begin to carve out a meager life as a thief and information broker.
(~25 years before present) The hrothgar woman finds an auracite shard and becomes enthralled by it, becoming increasingly paranoid and controlling of those around her. She resolves to train herself and her daughter as a weapon to combat her delusions.
(~21 years before present) Zen has fully integrated into the Ul'dahn underground, becoming a staple contact for many ne'er-do-well's. They note a group of contacts that want to get out of the life of crime and begin to formulate a plan.
(~19 years before present) The daughter has her first echo vision, earning great disapproval from her mother and losing her name in the process. She stays with her mother in an attempt to regain favor.
(~19 years before present) Zen opens a 'hunting hall' to be their base of operations - a front for their information gathering gig and a way to help people go legit should they desire it.
(~18 years before present) Zen hears rumors of a strange viera visiting the shops of Ul'dah asking for machinery. They successfully track down the mystery individual and recruit Verre to their operation as a tinker.
(~16-17 years before present) Yomi is born in an underwater raen village. She is terribly sheltered, but educated well and set up to inherit her mother's position as oracle.
(~15 years before present) In response to the Battle of Silvertear, Zen establishes ties to Clan Centurio and the adventurer's guild, despite the latter's waning popularity at the time.
(~12 years before present) The daughter is abandoned by her mother after failing to regain her favor. She namelessly wanders as a mercenary, convinced that her visions are a symptom of madness.
(~10 years before present) Verre tells Zen about her past, revealing her still-fresh grief for the first time. Zen encourages Verre to see them and their operation as a family of sorts in an attempt to soothe her.
(~5 years before present) Zen brings Garlean scrap to Verre so she can tinker with it. Verre passes along her findings to the Eorzean Alliance, namely about structural weaknesses and stress points. She also uses the scrap to build an air conditioning unit, much to Zen's confusion.
(~5 years before present) In the final leadup to the Calamity, Verre asks to fight at Cartenau alongside the Eorzean Alliance. Zen has a bad feeling and talks her out of it, sparing her from the front lines.
(~2 years before present) Yomi's mother receives an ill omen about her daughter and the danger she will associate with.
(~1 year before present) Yomi's mother tricks her into exile under the guise of pilgrimage, hoping to spare her village from impending doom. Yomi sets her sights on Eorzea, oblivious to the truth and the state of the realm at large.
(~1 year before present) Yomi arrives in Ul'dah and immediately falls for an obvious scam, only to be saved by Zen's timely interference. They offer to give her a place to stay and work to do, which she graciously accepts, meeting Verre in the process.
(~week before present) The nameless mercenary, weary and despairing after long years of wandering alone, sets her sights on Ul'dah's adventurer's guild.
(present, start of ARR) Upon arriving at the Ul'dahn adventurer's guild and being prompted to provide a name, the mercenary took the name of Nailah, though she is reluctant to introduce herself as such.
(present, start of ARR) By chance, Zen recognizes Nailah as a newcomer and decides to try and give her a place to stay, as she seemed down on her luck. In their attempt to help they learn her name and use it in conversation, causing her to become extremely defensive and leave upset.

thinking about beast/ars and how much it disappointed me.
#it was very much a run of the mill action shounen#which is ironic considering there werent even all that many fights in it#but it's really hard to properly classify as one genre or the other because it wants to be SO MANY THINGS at once#we started with what seemed like a promise for competitive high school career with the concept of beastars#plus a healthy dash of murder mystery. it was pretty good. it was solid#but then the protag didnt even try to outwit the murderer. it ended up being an all out brawl#so it kinda failed to deliver to conclude the murder mystery element in what would be considered conventional for the genre#soon after the competitive high school aspect was dropped‚ too when the prospective beastar dropped out#and the protag doesnt even try to maybe pursue that direction despite being a fairly good fit#(i.e. the author could have taken that route as a storyline with little adjustments made)#by the end of the first arc two of the promised storyline literally advertised by its synopsis and first chapter is dropped#(arguably the murder mystery one was solved. but see above for my dissatisfaction with its conclusion)#and then after that it was ... what? slice of life? romance drama?#the prospective couple barely had any chemistry but most shounen authors suck ass with romance so fine. i'll let that slide.#on par with the course etc etc#for quite a while the story meandered. it was a crime drama. then a half-assed coming of age. then it was a mystery again#but despite having gone the detective mystery route on the first arc the second time around it sucked even more#which was. amazing to say the least#yet much like the first time it ended in an all out brawl again. disappointing.#it tried to touch on some sociopolitical aspects with the prejudice and herbivore/carnivore tension#but the prejudice is consistently shown to be deserved; what with the carnivores harassing herbivores when theyre not outright eating them#and the tension was concluded with simply ''oh my god you guys the carnivores are actually okay 🥺 they care about us 🥺🥺''#in the most infantilising tone possible. blergh. yuck.#and in the end the status quo didnt change. literally all that changed was the back alley market being destroyed#yet what little impact it had was quickly squashed with the narrative itself saying ''yea there'll just be another one popping up lol''#beastar was a disappointment because it not only didnt deliver on what it initially advertised#(i.e. the concept of a beastar as sort of the bridge and peacemaker between herbivores and carnivores)#it also just fall short even as a mediocre shounen with its inability to decide what it wanted to be#a smart and calculating mystery? an action-packed battle manga? a drama? who knows!!#it changes depending on what the author feels like writing this week!!

fr id be so sad if i had to cut enzos hair down but if i cant get my shit together soon that might be what has to happen until im in a better/more stable position. part of it is that it keeps getting Longer and so i have to groom more frequently and for longer sessions. this is also the most harrowing time in a havanese dogs life (around 9-18 months) when theyre 1) dealing with adolescence and 2) have a chance of having a very difficult coat change (blowing puppy coat and developing the undercoat, which in non-shedding breeds can cause some messy, easily matted hair!)
as a result enzo has been losing a lot of confidence on the grooming table and is less tolerant of it. He's not getting pissy or biting at all, just wiggly and low key stressed, which sucks bc he needs to be up there for me to deal with his crazy teen hair =_= The crazy hair is making him even Worse because sometimes theres a bit of a mat i need to get out (at this point i have been clipping them out to avoid causing him discomfort)
it's also spring, which means theres a ton of burrs and seeds everywhere, and the grass is growing tall. so every time we go outside he gets so many little things in his hair. it's a nightmare sometimes LMAO
