SISTER SLEDGE - ALL AMERICAN GIRLS. 20 DECEMBER 2021.

One of those moments where a song inspires something kind of unrelated to the lyrics but is cool nonethless. I was still pretty new to drawing Elder-kun at the time, but I was really becoming inspired by certain Japanese Sky artists to improve upon how i drew them.

Items around him are Paracosm-related shenaniganry. Elder-kun. ♥

I don't think enough people talk about YOU TWO. People are always attributing various things to gaster, but there were two other people in the room with him when it happened. They could be the ones doing these things. I always felt like a lot of the things attributed to him seem to contradict each other personality-wise. Maybe one of them is going around giving random short guys new, never-before-seen complexes while the other is handing out eggs, or making fountains.

On deltarune.com/chair there's dialogue that appears in the tab name: "But what if it could get... ...darker than dark?" This seems like it was said surrounding one of Gaster's dark experiments, but notably, it is not in all capital letters, like Gaster always speaks in. This was someone else talking. They use capitalization the normal way, just like the voice that discards the vessel, so they could be the same person. I know just about everyone uses capitalization the normal way, the connecting thread here is both being in relation to Gaster, the capitalization just means that them being the same person is allowed.

#what if W D and Gaster are all separate people #Ok now my personal headcanon: #the one who connects you to DELTARUNE at the beginning of the game is gaster (obviously). the one handing out eggs is also gaster. #since he's shattered across time and space. that's why his existence is so... debatable lol. #+ you can find him in the light world which would seem to imply he's a lightner. but when you seal the fountain there isn't someone extra #in the room with you. #no matter what you do in the dark world #he isn't there by the time you seal the fountain #if you take the egg he isn't yhere #if you don't take the egg he was not there #if you don't enter that room. he exists in a state of superposition. and when you turn on the lights (observe him) he collapses into #nonexistence. #does that make sense? #anyway. second headcanon: #the guy who fucked up jevil and spamton #is also the one who discarded the vessel #and is one of 'you two'. #and the other person.. no clue #and alphys is the knight and dess sings don't forget which is the song from the water #deltarune #deltarune lore #deltarune theory

the navy absolutely do not want to let go of garp because, yes, he's an incredibly powerful soldier. Even as an old man, he remains a more than capable fighter. But above all is for his legacy. His accomplishments throughout his 50+ year career makes him legendary. THE Navy Hero. Losing Garp would be a massive moral blow to the Marines and the public who rely on the Marines. The World Government dislike Garp's work ethics and opinions, but they know that if they want to keep face, they need him. They refuse to let him go.

The fact that "One Girl In All the World" had The Gentleman, the demons that give you telepathy (and make you go crazy), the Sunnydale swim team that had gotten turned into sea monsters, and Fyral demons, though. And one other callback monster that I shan't spoil.

#one girl in all the world spoilers #spoilers #also spike pointing out that giles had turned into a fyral demon once and being like 'we have to make sure it's not giles. you're not giles #are you?' and then the text after that saying. 'alas. it was not giles.' lol #and this has nothing to do with monsters. but i loved this one scene where spike stormed off and willow followed him to try and talk to him #but sensing he might not want to talk she spoke in his head verbally 'if you don't want to talk we can always do this telepathically' #and then he said aloud. 'that would be a one-way conversation. vampires' thoughts don't cast a reflection remember?' #man all the references in the in every generation series are SO good #and the fact that frankie knew the song about the gentleman from buffy's dream and started singing it when they showed up. pfft. like 'wait #i know what these are.' and how willow and frankie both started screaming the moment they got their voices back to defeat them. and were #the only ones who knew to do to. #cutemotherdaughtermoment #buffy the vampire slayer

please help me- i used to be pretty smart but i’m having so much trouble grasping the concept of diegetic vs non-diegetic bdsm!

gfkjldghfd okay first of all I'm sorry for the confusion, if you're not finding anything on the phrase it's because I made it up and absolutely nobody but me ever uses it, but I haven't found a better way to express what I'm trying to say so I keep using it. but now you've given me an excuse to ramble on about some shit that is only relevant to me and my deeply inefficient way of talking and by god I'm going to take it.

SO. the way diegetic and non-diegetic are normally used is to talk about music and sound design in movies/tv shows. in case you aren't familiar with that concept, here's a rundown:

diegetic sound is sound that happens within the world of the movie/show and can be acknowledged by the characters, like a song playing on the stereo during a driving scene, or sung on stage in Phantom of the Opera. it's also most other sounds that happen in a movie, like the sounds of traffic in a city scene, or a thunderclap, or a marching band passing by. or one of the three stock horse sounds they use in every movie with a horse in it even though horses don't really vocalize much in real life, but that's beside the point, the horse is supposed to be actually making that noise within the movie's world and the characters can hear it whinnying.

non-diegetic sound is any sound that doesn't exist in the world of the movie/show and can't be perceived by the characters. this includes things like laugh tracks and most soundtrack music. when Duel of Fates plays in Star Wars during the lightsaber fight for dramatic effect, that's non-diegetic. it exists to the audience, but the characters don't know their fight is being backed by sick ass music and, sadly, can't hear it.

the lines can get blurry between the two, you've probably seen the film trope where the clearly non-diegetic music in the title sequence fades out to the same music, now diegetic and playing from the character's car stereo. and then there are things like Phantom of the Opera as mentioned above, where the soundtrack is also part of the plot, but Phantom of the Opera does also have segments of non-diegetic music: the Phantom probably does not have an entire orchestra and some guy with an electric guitar hiding down in his sewer just waiting for someone to break into song, but both of those show up in the songs they sing down there.

now, on to how I apply this to bdsm in fiction.

if I'm referring to diegetic bdsm what I mean is that the bdsm is acknowledged for what it is in-world. the characters themselves are roleplaying whatever scenarios their scenes involve and are operating with knowledge of real life rules/safety practices. if there's cnc depicted, it will be apparent at some point, usually right away, that both characters actually are fully consenting and it's all just a planned scene, and you'll often see on-screen negotiation and aftercare, and elements of the story may involve the kink community wherever the characters are. Love and Leashes is a great example of this, 50 Shades and Bonding are terrible examples of this, but they all feature characters that know they're doing bdsm and are intentional about it.

if I'm talking about non-diegetic bdsm, I'm referring to a story that portrays certain kinks without the direct acknowledgement that the characters are doing bdsm. this would be something like Captive Prince, or Phantom of the Opera again, or the vast majority of bodice ripper type stories where an innocent woman is kidnapped by a pirate king or something and totally doesn't want to be ravished but then it turns out he's so cool and sexy and good at ravishing that she decides she's into it and becomes his pirate consort or whatever it is that happens at the end of those books. the characters don't know they're playing out a cnc or D/s fantasy, and in-universe it's often straight up noncon or dubcon rather than cnc at all. the thing about entirely non-diegetic bdsm is that it's almost always Problematic™ in some way if you're not willing to meet the story where it's at, but as long as you're not judging it by the standards of diegetic bdsm, it's just providing the reader the same thing that a partner in a scene would: the illusion of whatever risk or taboo floats your boat, sometimes to extremes that can't be replicated in real life due to safety, practicality, physics, the law, vampires not being real, etc. it's consensual by default because it's already pretend; the characters are vehicles for the story and not actually people who can be hurt, and the reader chose to pick up the book and is aware that nothing in it is real, so it's all good.

this difference is where people tend to get hung up in the discourse, from what I've observed. which is why I started using this phrasing, because I think it's very crucial to be able to differentiate which one you're talking about if you try to have a conversation with someone about the portrayal of bdsm in media. it would also, frankly, be useful for tagging, because sometimes when you're in the mood for non-diegetic bodice ripper shit you'd call the police over in real life, it can get really annoying to read paragraphs of negotiation and check-ins that break the illusion of the scene and so on, and the opposite can be jarring too.

it's very possible to blur these together the same way Phantom of the Opera blurs its diegetic and non-diegetic music as well. this leaves you even more open to being misunderstood by people reading in bad faith, but it can also be really fun to play with. @not-poignant writes fantastic fanfic, novels, and original serials on ao3 that pull this off really well, if you're okay with some dark shit in your fiction I would highly recommend their work. some of it does get really fucking dark in places though, just like. be advised. read the tags and all that.

but yeah, spontaneous writer plug aside, that's what I mean.

#I found their original stuff while I was researching various waterhorses and their folklore for no reason #because one of the characters in their original work happens to be an each uisge #and then it turned out it ALSO included a lot of figures from welsh folklore in general #so yknow if you happen to have my incredibly specific hyperfixations you'll love it but even if you don't it's great #I didn't mean to bring up phantom of the opera so much it just happens to be very relevant to a lot of my talking points #I haven't actually seen it in years
