The first Heron design I showed off was from before Confidential Casefiles, so I thought I’d show you guys her look after she gets her new arm. Plus a few changes I made to her character for this AU! Just realised the way I placed my signature makes it look like I’M her worst enemy, whoops.

Meet the Cast!

╰┈➤ Canon ☄. *. ⋆

#fuck you *turns your turtleneck into a cheongsam* #hope im spelling that right lol #this look is still from the 60s era btw!! #I’d make some slight changes for her modern day look UNLIKE CANON #don’t know what I’d change tho cause I really like this design #also may and june don’t exist in this au sorry lol #gonna replace their storyline with some original stuff if I ever do present day art for this au! #I might repurpose them for something else #maybe they can be daisies nieces #but yeah canon heron is a fucking child abuser and I think that’s where beakley would draw the line and I’m a beakheron shipper till death #sooooooo that’s not happening a #lso. I hate s3 BUT IM NOT GONNA START RANTING ABT THAT NOW I SWEAR ANYWAYS HUIFEN SUPREMACY OK BYE #art #my art #digital art #fanart #doodle #drawing #ducktales #ducktales human au #<- I need a better/more unique name for this au hmm #black heron #LÙ Huifen #hope I got the stràc the right way round #I forget the English word #humanisation #gjinka #also if this were a cartoon set in the present day. I think Huifen would be introduced as Beakleys worst enemy with a vendetta against her #and beakley is convinced it’s bc she fucking blew up her arm bc duh #until it’s revealed heron is just mad that beakley retired bc I THOUGHT WE HAD SOMETHING SPECIAL. I THOUGHT WE WERE ARCH RIVALS

okay this may be what we call fanning the flames but genuine question, what would be the payoff if buddie were to go canon? like why would it be exciting? (I'd like actual opinions bc I'm curious)

#buddie #911 #I mean everyone already says they're basically married so why do you need the romantic aspect of it #like oh they kiss- oh wait nothing's changed because they already coparent chris and are best friends #let's be reasonable #im not hating #I just get that there would be an exciting storyline in like seasons 2 or 3 (maybe 4 if we're pushing it) #like do we need them to kiss? they're already a family #this may be my aspec side taking over #buddie fanfic is fun but I dont get why everyone acts like they'll die if it doesn't go canon

she hides it well but minnie is super insecure when she returns from outside the cfc

#morty smith #rick and morty oc #art #my art #minnie #morty #that is not a productive way of thinking! #i also have this sort of nebulous storyline idea #where minnie breaks down in tears bc she thinks beth hates her #bt i dont like #have an ending for that one yet bc variables keep changing

✨i’m losing it, all i get is jealousy, jealousy ✨

#the mighty ducks #charlie conway #adam banks #and a little #jesse hall #because i do be pushing the 9line agenda always! #me: did you know jealousy jealousy by olivia rodrigo is a song about hockey boys and classism #this started out as a joke #but i think it would make for an interesting dynamic #i'm clearing out my drafts! #but while i'm here #it's really so interesting #how adam changed for the better #going from that 'i'm better than you' hawk mentality to being humbled #and how jesse changed for the better #going from 'cake-eater (derogatory)' to 'cake-eater (affectionate)' because he realized not all rich people are terrible #and charlie just did the opposite and regressed??? #literally went from 'let's give bombay & banks a chance :)' to 'eat the rich i hate all y'all preppies' #and i get it's because they needed a conflict and classism is a big part of d1's storyline #but damn charlie tell us what happened between age 12 and 14 #like ok #realistically i still think it's because they just gave him half of jesse's personality #to give him that role of a leader he never was in d1/d2 #but obviously they weren't gonna point that out in the movie #but i wish they'd at the very least explored charlie's sudden resentment #and the conflict between adam and charlie #instead of having them fight and then make up(?) without as much as a talk!! #i think there's a lot of things d3 got right #but even more that they got wrong #ok this turned into me rambling

me @ Disney: make Smelly Gabe a sculpture or Mickey fucking gets it

#funny because Mickey and Minnie will soon be public domain #i really hate the way gabe just. sounds impressed when percy says he got expelled for assaulting a classmate #i've rewatched too many times and every single time #i notice something that makes gabe seem more and more shitty #i wonder if disney will actually go through with his abusive step father arc #because disney is too weak to actually show impactful storylines #i'll be mad if they don't because it's so important #also you might've seen a post similar to this before and that's because i deleted that one #wasn't happy with it #i was among the people who were surprised at the changes in gabe's character #i just thought he was pathetic and wasn't sure if the statue-ification in the finale would work then because he was different from the book #but you can see how unhappy percy is to be returning home because he knows he'll have to see gabe too #and i'm glad there's so many posts on here talking about how his character is still an asshat #because him not reacting much to percy sassing him out blindsided me #honestly grateful to those posts because they really do put things in a new light #ok i'll stop being annoying in the tags now #percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo tv show #pjo tv spoilers #isoceratops

Jesse Lee Soffer changed his bio …

It’s officially official. We’ve now said goodbye to Detective Jay Halstead.

Deep down I had been secretly praying that Jay would make a surprise re-entry to the show if only for his wife.

#JSL changed his bio and I’m not okay #it feels like we’re losing him all over again #Jay Halstead would never and I hate that these writers chose this storyline to pursue knowing full well they wouldn’t be bringing Jay Jack #upstead #jay halstead #jay x hailey #hailey upton #chicago pd #jesse lee soffer #one chicago #tracy spiridakos

HITTING THE NAIL DIRECTLY ON THE HEAD AS ALWAYS QUEEN

I'm SO tired of new fem characters coming out and they have absolutely no substance to them and you can't look anything up about them because everything is literally just porn. We can't have genuinely interesting and well thought out female characters because that won't sell them, their sex appeal has to sell them! You have to listen to their artificially high voices and never see them get dirty or messy or seen as anything but pretty ladies in barely there clothing! Ignore the fact that a lot of these women are genuine fighters, they're eye candy! They're the mom coded and little sister coded characters!

Even the girls get this treatment because if I have to listen to another person say Diona is super annoying and ignore the trauma she has by literally being left ALONE to run an entire business because her dumb as fuck alcoholic father can't be bothered to do so, I'm gonna fucking lose it. Also massive agree on the fact that the keep child coding the older characters or keep them in an ambiguous "they look/sound like they're 15 but they perform duties that people in their 20s+ perform" state. It is so fucking annoying. They know their fanbase, they know what people are going to do with most of these characters.

It's L after L with Hoyo and I hate it because there are so many things I LOVE about this game but then it's like...you give them an inch and they blow everything up.

no deadass it would be one thing to have a variety of characters with different ages, but what bothers me is that they constantly toe that line between childhood innocence and l*li baiting. so many of these child characters have age caveats that at first glance i didn’t even consider, but then started seeing people use it to justify that klee ages differently/qiqi is immortal/etc. when they’re KIDS

it’s what’s been so off putting for me with nahida. it’s really not just the fact that she’s a kid. it’s the entire shitstorm that follows making her into a child character. the way her official art feels icky and the way she’s meant to be the archon of wisdom (and although she was sheltered), acts so much like a child in out of character ways. so many of the women are painfully soft-spoken, but in such a discord kitten way that it’s uncomfortable to listen to. beidou’s voice acting is my favorite example of just… a woman speaking like a woman and not sounding like she’s trying to sound innocent and soft.

this is absurd because i am absolutely against censorship, but those bandaid fixes hoyo sent out for the female characters’ outfits were actually a little bit of a relief. it’s always skintight bodysuits, micro shorts, etc. for female warriors? i love the direction they went with dehya because after so long, we finally had a female character who wasn’t shoved into a hyper feminine box. she’s brash and battle-worn in the best ways, but even she is barely wearing any clothes.

and yes, she largely works and travels in hot areas, but there is no semblance of any tastefulness or thought put into her outfit other than “how much skin can we get away with showing”

and the fact that kaeya, with a single low cut top, is the closest we get to something remotely “sexy” on a male character? gorou, cyno, and itto are more undressed than kaeya, but their designs feel purposeful to their characters. they, at the very least, make sense. they’re also a minuscule minority against a slew of other suit-wearing male characters. i see it over and over again in video games where women’s sexualities are weaponized not to uplift them and their identities, but to objectify them. it doesn’t matter for a single second that this is a fictional video game. the portrayal of women is genuinely gross and harmful and i will never shut up about it.

#and the fucking raiden treatment #it would be one thing if they left her a villainess #because even if she had her past and grief #it doesn’t change the fact that she sat back while her people were being oppressed #but then the fucking character redemption is ‘she likes sweets and was just throwing a fit :(‘ #the fuck? #i hated the inazuma storyline because of that #signora is virtually the only villainess they did well #because we know and sympathize with her past #but she’s still a /villainess/ #they have to make women so consumable it’s so irritating #and a little p.s. #the reason why i don’t reblog as much female character art on here #is because their tags are filled with oversexualized depictions :-)

why give shauna of all characters (in all of media in general it's that serious) a Totally Forgot About The Giving Birth Pain When I Saw The Baby's Face scene. i don't care if it's a dream sequence that's so ill fitting

#for someone whose mom always talk abt giving birth to me as this exact maternal haze i am filled with so much hate #whenever its on tv #but in this specific case its just like . that is. no #i will find a way to explain it away in my mind eventually cause i fcking have to if they wont give me what i want #but as of now. just airing my grievances #hate that. truly hate that #i always hate pregnancy storylines but i was so excited for this one cause they were setting it up as horror pregnancy #and they didnt even get fucked up enough! they didn't even show the dead baby! i hate it here sorry #oh typo in the first tag well i will not be changing it all now. deal #yellowjackets spoilers #yellowjackets blogging

I actually thought the Dune spin-off series, now called Dune: Prophecy, was still in the pre-production stage because last I heard it was recasting and retooling, but apparently its all been shot and is due later this year. If it proves to be a success I expect this is how they'll continue the franchise, with prequel series rather than continue to adapt the books.

A third Dune movie is very likely at this stage. Part Two has been enough of a hit already to justify it, although it will probably take some time due to Villeneuve's desire to do other things first and avoid Dune burnout. A fourth film adapting Children of Dune is possible, even if Villeneuve has no intention of doing it himself, but only if the studio is really desperate for another Dune movie. That would be it, though. Cannot ever see them doing God Emperor or the last two books.

#dune #dune messiah #denis villeneuve #children of dune #god emperor of dune #dune prophecy #dune part two #children would be the last chance they'd have to use the bulk of the original cast #but that's assuming they'd want to return without denis #or that he'll end his trilogy in such a way that another film is possible #if he has every intention of ending his trilogy with messiah he has no need to keep a lot of the set up for children #personally i wouldn't object if he changed chani's fate #i know it is crucial to the plot #but i always hated it and felt it was just a cliched way to end her storyline

almost every cdrama i‘ve watched could have been a 10/10 if it wasn’t for those last ten minutes packed with the entire finale like every single one without fail got that rushed ending…. why do they keep doing this to me stop

#literally every single one!!! i feel like theres gotta be some sort of rule for screenwriters #and i mean the 10/10 i enjoy the storylines so much and theyre not comparable to kdramas like people would like to think #but they always do everything in the last few minutes and it takes away so much from the story #wifty is the only one i accept bc they fast forwarded their future and that drama actually changed my life lmao i think abt them every day #even a river runs through it which started of as my new absolute favorite show..whyd they reunite in the last 3 minutes i was MAD #but i can accept it bc i still love them sm #but the two most unforgivable ones are meet yourself which is also one of my favorites bc you robbed me of my wedding lmao #second one arsenal military academy bc they just walked into the sunset and they didnt show any of the characters again???? bruh #and i will also forever complain about love like the galaxy which had me obsessed and hooked like no other show i actually lost sleep over i #BUT MY WEDDING!!!!! give me my wedding scene please i am mentally ill and i hate marriage irl so of course i need dramas to end in weddings #anyways. i love cdramas #i have watched more cdramas in 6 months than a decade of watching kdramas bc i always drop them lmao #but please give those stories and characters proper endings im begging you atp its dishonoring the material lmao #personal

as much as i fucking loved the tv show with my whole heart and how faithful it is to the game and i wanna see pedro and bella knock it out of the park again i'm just very apprehensive for what's next

don't get me wrong the last of us part I is one of my fave games ever but even the promise of tlou season 2 won't get me to play misery porn: the game myself

like if you enjoyed part II that's totally fine good for you but i just feel like so many things could've been handled differently and every time i remember that part II is a thing i just get this hollow feeling inside that shadows my fond memories of part I

#my thoughts no one asked for #the last of us #tlou part 2 #like i get it's about hate #but there's a difference between hate #and extensive misery that just makes you wonder #why you got on this ride in the first place #i read this one really great article #about what small changes they could've made to the storyline #and it made the whole thing so much more cohesive #and now i'm sad that version of the game doesn't actually exist #anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk

Thoughts about Echoes of Oblivion: I consider Eight to be cosmically insignificant. That he's just a blip in the giant lifeform that is the Force. It doesn't make him any less important than the next character, but he's not some grand savior or even anything next to say, the Hero of Tython. He doesn't even show up on Force radars half the time. This obviously clashes with a major portion of KOTFE/ET and after that keeps trying to make you somebody, but he is literally nobody. The fact that he matters so much to someone like Jadus who is a gigantic presence and galaxy-shaker delights the hell out of me, but it only makes him special to their relationship, not the rest of the world.

To that end, I think not even Arcann would remember him. Senya would still be angry; she deserves to be and they both made and accepted their choice with him as their murderer. He holds nothing against her if she wants him to suffer for the rest of his life. Given the tweaking of his role as Outlander however, I'm unsure of whether Arcann would hold the same grudge. He might, given this nobody killed his entire family-- but Eight barely spoke, and I think Arcann's vitriol is much more directed at an Outlander who... has a presence at all. Eight might have appeared as just an unknown soldier to him. But I suppose even he needed someone to hate, if he could never reach his father. It's hard for me to imagine him doing so for Eight however, as he did promise he'd defeat him in his stead.

Oddly enough, this time Vaylin had no objections compared to a LS playthrough which is very sad given she must have just wanted to be free of her life of pain and misery, so it made me sigh in relief a little. She deserved a bit of catharsis. It's ironic that the path most would assume would heal her made her more overcome with rage. As mentioned before, it's strange how she and Eight sometimes would silently see eye to eye like that. Maybe that's just how those mired in endless violence are.

I also don't think they needed him to be there for this one given a huge chunk of the vital Force-users there were like uh.... we hate this guy for killing us. Made it really awkward.

It's nice to think of Eight as one of those nameless phantoms in the back who show up just to get a good hit in for Valkorion though, and while I don't think he couldn't do such a thing, he's more of the whimsical surprise character who shows up mysteriously out of nowhere to wreak havoc while simultaneously being helpful and acting on his own agenda (Jadus sends his regards!).

It still got me though when Valkorion pulled him to the side alone and asked him if he really did kill his entire family without being controlled-- I was very curious about the point of lying about it, which I imagine would've been good for RP purposes, but Eight would never shirk the responsibility or the weight of his decisions-- his kills. Valkorion laughed and said he must have enjoyed it if he was so steadfast in his conviction, but Eight would never. Not that him or his family could understand, as they've only known emotions that lead to murder their entire lives. The curse of being empaths, I suppose.

Though I had to pick the apology button to Senya, he wouldn't do that either. He didn't do it then. He couldn't do it now, and she knew it was too late for feelings (it always is. at some point you give up on justifications. you accept this as who you are) and so she brushed past him saying his time would come, and Arcann saying he would suffer eventually.

Ironically, he'd never turn that on them had their situations been reversed. Not that the game had any neutral options for this expac, haha.

He probably wished he got to stay outside Satele's head with Theron. There's something symbolic about him finding the loneliest, coldest vistas of Valkorion's barren mind filled with darkness as comforting, like it's the only place in the galaxy where he could ever be. KOTFE/ET... really made it apparent how other people became his hell, when all they could see was a tool for their victory and a bloody knife to blame.

He was oddly happy when Valkorion didn't remember him. He was grateful. Thank the stars. I should wish to be forgotten.

Then the arc tied off with a cheeky nod waking up to the same Lana with a stim like the PC does first leaving carbonite, but it was more bittersweet than anything to once again jet off...somewhere with her knowing Eight's history with the one he deferred to this entire expac. He tiredly went "I don't care," when she asked him where to go next, just the two of them in a shuttle again. No further words were exchanged and we don't know where she picked, but that summarizes their relationship pretty well: being dragged off not even half-awake by Lana without asking lol. He's still her agent even now, huh?

...Though given the garbage fire and lots of dead people that resulted because of their disastrous power dynamic, I could very clearly hear the frantic holocall from Theron ringing 30 minutes later asking where the kriff she's taking him and to put him back right now.

#swtor #kotfe/et au #this storyline makes me so profoundly depressed #also have a lot of thoughts about him and Scourge but that's for another time #given his hatred of the Servants and how ironic it is for the Hand of Jadus to enter the ultimate Best Servant Smackdown #no I'm Valk's favorite! no I am! no me! YOU'RE ALL WRONG.... #eight stands in the doorway wearing an oversized JADUS FOR EMPEROR tshirt #anyways there will be no rest for the weapon who gives himself two lifetimes over for a galaxy who continually hates him #the alliance takes a victory group shot and post it on their public media going what would you do if you saw us... ;) #and eight comments killing myself in front of you to change the trajectory of your lives forever. they immediately drag him off to therapy

tonight was the last piece of evidence I needed

#i'm convinced geoff johns and greg berlanti just hate ryan potter and jordan elsass #the way they're purposely left out of bts stuff #have the shittiest storylines and by storylines i mean one maybe important scene per episode #are just emotional support and props for other characters #get tons of trauma dumped onto them just for it to be ignored by the other characters and writers #are really so useless to the story that you could take them out and nothing would really change #just because the writers refuse to see them as important #and keep them standing on the sidelines to do nothing but react to what's going on around them #and never be involved besides a few pieces of dialogue then they'll disappear from the episode #just so the writers can focus on their obvious favorites characters #i'm scared for how useless gar and jon are gonna be in the next seasons #it wouldn't surprise me if they're written out somehow #yes i'm mad can you tell? #titans #superman and lois #jonathan kent #gar logan

praying the takoyaki party movie turns out better than the last one i really can't handle a flop like that again

#it's not that i hate it and i'm not expecting osomatsu san to ahve the most coherent of storylines #but the first movie set the bar too high i think #all the angst was a little overbearing at times but it was well paced #and the hipipo fruit felt too wild? lacking direction? whenever i thought i knew where the story was going it just kept changing #and i think it also ties with the lack of direction season 3 had and i REALLY hope they sort it out with this movie and s4 #but both had atsushi content and cameos so i wont shit on them too much <3 #text
