My page for @sheikahzine; about Impaz's duty to her village, empty of people and full of memories.

#legend of zelda #loz #twilight princess #loz tp #i'm still reeling that someone sent me an ask about this one.. that they took the time to find my tumblr and tell me they liked it #it really meant a lot; thank you to anyone that stops to leave comments like that. they make me happy #but yeah! here's the usual symbolism ramble: #i thought it'd be cool to have the 'spirits' flowing one way and the cats walking through them the other way #to kinda show the difference in life inhabiting the village in the past and present #link's face is covered because impaz was just waiting for 'the hero' so his clothes are what matters; not his face #and it (hopefully) gives a surreal and intangible sense to 'the hero' she could only hope would actually show up #you can feel free to interpret the glowy blue sheikah as ghosts or just as memories of the past! i couldn't decide either way #the one on the bottom left is oot impa since she's implied to be the village founder. so i guess she would be a ghost actually? #fan art #my art #project stuff #and ahhh the book-- everyone's stuff is so beautiful!! #especially the writing. some of the fics made me really tear up and some were so fun and clever. i really love them #a lot of them captured the sheer burden of the role of the sheikah; all of the time and grief and doubt #i know i always say this stuff about every project but. the people i get to work with in these are truly so skilled every time

I think if rise continued it would have been really funny/interesting for Raph and Leo to feel inferior to Mikey and Donnie.

Cause like Mikey and Donnie are the best at what they do. Mikey is the greatest mystic warrior and Donnie is the smartest man alive. Splinters favorite is Donnie and Drax favorite is Mikey. They both work amazing as team and can basically synchronize when it comes to fighting.

Like it would be a great way to give more attention to Donnie and Mikey's character while also exploring a new challenge for Raph and Leo's character.

#this kinda come comes from an idea i haf for an episode where leo and Donnie feud about who is the better team Donnie and mikey or raph and #leo. the whole episode would be them trying to one up the other while raph and mikey are dragged along. #donnie: we are the b team. the “b�� stands for best team by the way #leo: well we're the “a” team because a comes before “b” so it makes us better! #Donnie: .....how clever #rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #save rise of the tmnt #rise of the tmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles season 3 #rise of the turtles #rise mikey #rottmnt mikey #tmnt #teenage mutant ninja turtles #rise donnie #rottmnt donnie #rise leo #rottmnt leo #rise raph #rottmnt raph #tmnt raphael #raphael #tmnt mikey #michaelangelo tmnt #michaelangelo #donnie tmnt #donatello #leonardo #leo tmnt

thinking about dee. the loser of the group of losers. she is the 'other' and the woman. she cant even form fulfilling relationships with other women because she has been conditioned by her friends to see them as lesser. not people to like, but people to tolerate or sexually exploit. because of this, she only sees women as a chance to gain a moment of feigned superiority. to, for once, be at the top of a group's hierarchy. artemis survives because she is ultimately indifferent. but the waitress is hurt by her selfishness because she sees dee as the 'other' of the group as well - the one who could potentially be on her side. but dee rejects even the slightest softness from the waitress because she only wants the approval of the gang. friendship and kindness isn't reliable for her - it is something she has to fight for. she equates it with power. the waitress is beneath her, so why would she try and make her like her. in order for dee to accept a friendship with the waitress, she has to accept herself first. she has to give up her idea of herself - and dee is incapable of giving up.

#uhhh yeah and add other stuff too and some clever stuff as well #im drawn to deetress because I loveee complicated relationships between women #and dee is just so interesting #she kinda hates herself but is also so so resilient #and she does have a friendship with the gang but it is so conditional #iasip

part of me is so so tempted to make like.

an afk arena fanfic thats short and sweet and like some stories about eugavus & their kids, mainly during the time where they are still looking for a new living space after the prison break

mainly bc i have two little ideas i wanna do ,,,,

#afk arena #afk eugene #afk gavus #afk liberta #afk lucilla #eugavus #i think #that they deserve to have a fanfic dedicated to that little portion of their life #like the ups the downs and what have you #imagine gavus and eugene learning their funny silly little baby girl uses unnecessary violence now #and she doesnt see the issue with it bc to her its justified usage #imagine they see their little darling sleepy boy whos so willing to put himself in the grip of death #because his magic is built for healing and he sees it as the most logical thing to do #but also imagine eugene showing lucilla how to channel that unnecessary violence into something more clever #hes not saying get rid of it hes saying turn it into necessary violence #‘’​so you wont get told off by your papa’’ kinda deal #imagine gavus sitting liberta down after a particularly bad day full of disagreements on how liberta uses his magic #and admitting to liberta that yes he can heal himself but its scary every time for gavus and eugene and lucilla #that the reason they keep getting upset isnt bc theyre mad at liberta but terrified that he’ll take a hit for them #for his PARENTS (the people who are supposed to be protecting him) #and he won’t get up #yeah i have thougthts anyways

the feedback i've gotten in calling the 14th doctor age regression is mostly people agreeing with me but also a few people saying "wouldn't it make more sense if it was 11? he's more childlike than 10" so i feel like i have to clarify my thoughts a little more here. get ready for some genuine analysis to justify a joke i made.

i specified that i think this is time lord age regression, because i don't think it'd manifest in the same way for them. their stages of life simply don't go baby -> child -> teen -> adult, each regeneration is functionally a different person with their own thought processes and dominant personality traits and that's their stages of life.

i don't think it would make sense for 13 to regress to 11 because 11 is a fakey fake fake. his whimsy is performative. 11 is a man who's done the work, understands his feelings, but refuses to process them so he's still a little mentally ill with it. that's why everyone who is or has ever been a lol so random emo groks him. if anything he WISHES he could be an age regressor, he doesn't like that he has to have the complicated mind of an adult. but he fully drops it at the end and reveals he's always been a grumpy old man underneath it all, and then literally regenerates into a grumpy old man.

that's decidedly not the mental framework 13 was working off of at the end of her life. she was confused and crushed by guilt. what was supposed to be a new start for the doctor after 12 finally worked through their feelings and re-discovered what being The Doctor means and took responsibility for their actions? tough luck sucker. everything you thought you knew about yourself was a lie. half of the universe is dead. it's your fault.

to me this is very close to the mental framework that underpins everything about 10. a man who had lost his main coping mechanism (rage) and was now forced to actually confront the guilt he felt, a man who was just so so so very sad. someone who was just so... lost, and alone, and fucked up in the head. desperate for someone to understand what he was going through. and genuinely a little silly with it too! it's all very teenage-like, to me.

14 has a lot of that, and especially in wild blue yonder you can really see how much he wants donna to remember what it's like to be him. he wants someone to LITERALLY read his thoughts, because he craves understanding but doesn't wanna talk about it. the words wouldn't come out anyway. i also think that the ways 14 differs from 10 are interesting, because he's not an exact copy. it really feels like the doctor wanted to go back to before all of this happened, they don't want to be changed. they don't want to be affected. but they were, and the only way they can cope with it is to pretend to be 10 again.

#shut up sender #doctor who #dr who #dw #doctor who spoilers #fourteenth doctor #14th doctor #wild blue yonder #keeping this entirely 10-13 because this is all very contextually dependent on the emotional fallout from 9 letting go of his anger #also see what i did there at the end im kinda clever sometimes #long post

The in-game description mentions that Shionne's battlemaiden outfit might be good for archery; note the presence of the blue oversleeve (igote or yugote, i had do look that up) on her left arm, which you wear to prevent your sleeve from getting in the way as you hold the bow with your left arm and draw the string with your right hand, especially if you're shooting while on horseback apparently. Now the whimsy part comes in with the glove. It seems like if you want to go asymmetrical and wear only one glove, that's possible (as do practitioners of kyuudou for example) but. you'll probably want to wear it on the hand that draws the string. i.e. not on the side that has the igote. like what was the project here

#or just wear gloves on both hands. idk it just seems like the worst possible decision was made here #(anyway she never does wield bows so this is all very inconsequential) #shionne simping #i do love the bullets and cylinder patterns on the igote tho #like the audacity of it #of wearing a garment that is primarily designed for archery #and putting GUN STUFF on it because I HAVE A GUN it goes BANG BANG fuck bows #very shionnecore #no but for real i do like what they did with those patterns for real #it's cute. it works. #isnt shionne the cutest #arise curse #like adding little tails to the chambers in the cylinder pattern and suddenly we're in this Traditional Japanese Moment #like they kinda look like magatama or soul fires maybe #you might call it cheap i call it clever #tales of arise

I was wondering whether, if Emma Woodhouse and Lizzy Bennett met, Emma would dislike Lizzy

#and i have the feeling she would because i don't think Emma could ever have much liking for a woman who might be her competition #who could match her intelligence #like she kinda learnt to deal with that with jane fairfax but probably still couldn't get past it #in fact i can't think of emma liking many new acquaintances #she's so stuck in her ways. and determined to be the most superior #and only likes the cleverness of those who flatter and dote on her #also i don't know if their humours would match #and i'm just illuminating how emma is a bit of a tricky character #jane austen #emma woodhouse #elizabeth bennet

[hum--hallelujah]

the duality of my Dr. Benzedrine is that he's incredibly effective and ruthless at what he does (saving lives, need not concern himself with the consequences as long as the subject/victim/patient is still alive by the medical definition of the term) and he's terribly smart and has a great sense of humor, but he's also a rather confused, genuinely brain-damaged individual. like. he's scary when he's in his element, but when he's not, he sometimes can barely string a full sentence together, has panic attacks over loud noises, etc

#he is not a savant btw I kinda hate that trope. he's INCREDIBLY intelligent but the brain-to-mouth connection just doesn't... work. #the head injury itself would have probably resolved itself for the most part but there were chemicals and experiments involved #and it just means he's... really shitty at language and communication. if he's not thinking too hard about it it's easier!! #the more he thinks about it/tries too hard the worse his speech is #which is why he sounds more coherent when he's working- his mind is on what he's doing instead of ''Have To Talk Right'' #which allows him to. talk better. #the panic attacks thing tends to be either because 1) unfamiliar things like fireworks etc. or 2) sound sensitivity flare-up #...in a way I think he might be a very autistic little guy. but I'm not sure. I don't really know how to portray that #it's interesting trying to write a character who's whip-smart and clever and sarcastic but Can't Speak Properly #does any of this make sense?? #she speaks! #ddas

What I really think media with ensemble casts, especially those in a traveling group of some kind, are missing are big, blow-out arguments between the group. Especially when there's a conflict of interests, I am such a sucker for when two or more characters disagree so strongly that they realize very little is actually holding them together as a group, and wonder if it's time to go their separate ways.

I feel like a lot of video games, specifically, just kind of assume once the traveling band is "complete", it's forced to stay together until the player expressly permits it, but I don't really find that very compelling and a lot of times it feels more like they're relying on some kind of immediately strong bond that hasn't really been earned. Which is a shame, because in my opinion one of the best ways to strengthen that bond is to have the characters disagree and argue. Maybe they realize they're only being superficially held together and so they temporarily split up, only to then realize how much they've come to care for the others in the group. Then they reunite, make-up, formulate a plan to go forward, and boom, the group bond is that much stronger. Or maybe they don't even split up, and maybe they never learn to like each other, but they decide whatever cause their working toward is more important. Something else, bigger than them, is holding them together.

It just feels like a lot of potential is going to waste to just skip straight to the intense found family bond, without earning it.

#there are exceptions of course #like I thought it was clever how bg3 did it where the group didn't necessarily intend to be traveling together this long #and then once they learned about the tadpoles and the artifact it turns out it's either stay together or die #but a disagreement between them every once and a while instead of assuming they're all insta-besties couldn't hurt #and DA2 kinda circumvents this by Hawke not really going anywhere #so if Fenris isn't having a good time with Anders he can just like stay home and vice versa #but games like Octopath Traveler 2 would really benefit from some stronger disagreements #like my first playthrough Castti's ch. 4 and Osvald's ch. 5 lined up right next to each other #and like vague ot2 spoilers #but what I would give to see them hash it out #over whether to save thousands of people Castti doesn't know potentially at the cost of saving one person Osvald cares a great deal for #or vice versa #especially with how hardened Osvald's become it would have been soooo juicy #i get that would've been difficult to implement and that's probably more the job of fanfic #but that's just an example of what I mean #idk I just think more creators shouldn't be afraid to have their characters seriously argue with each other #because not every disagreement is a dealbreaker and can in fact strengthen their bonds #and like not every game cast needs to be found family! but if you want that found family effect you have to show them arguing like a family #poe1 is a good example of a group that travel together and don't necessarily have this tight bond #they just feel like good friends (mostly) #i had other examples that I can't think of now and may add later #I feel like I was going somewhere with this but yeah it's just something I've been thinking about #let characters fight sometimes. conflict is what makes stories good #edit: FE: 3 Houses was the other example I was thinking of! #like things get pretty dire in the Blue Lions route and Dimitri has some pretty questionable moments #but with the exception of like Felix hardly anyone calls him out on it they just kind of go along with it #and lo and behold Felix is one of my favorite 3H characters and his friendship with Dimitri is extremely compelling #bc their friendship was tested and survived #marie speaks

Congratulations! As of today, you are a Kamen Rider.

OKAY I’m done with designing my Geats OC, Kamen Rider Haunt. They’re based on a greyhound and use the Phantom and Racer Raise Buckles.

The Phantom Raise Buckle grants the Phantom Chain, a weapon that can pass through solid objects as the user wishes with an expandable length to attack any Jyamato at a distance or up close, while the Racer Buckle grants the Racer Spoilers, twin blade that allow the user to make up close attacks at great speed.

Haunt keeps their wish close to their chest and, despite outwardly presenting very friendly, will take any opportunity to sabotage other DGP Riders. But only if they’re sure they won’t be caught.

#kamen rider #kamen rider geats #kr geats #kamen rider oc #kr haunt #my ocs #my art #i explained in the poll for their buckle but Haunt comes from greyhound > gureihaundo > haundo > Haunt #phantom buckle plays on the name and racer is because of greyhound racing #with their personality being kinda based on like.. the incredibly unethical whole thing around greyhound racing #they try to sabotage others bc they’re afraid of being thrown away themself #I imagine they’re like a street kid or something and would be an antagonist that becomes sympathetic when you find out their backstory #but dies a little bit after while doing something good and deciding actively not to sabotage someone #*overconfident voice* yeah theyre Kinda a tragic character y’know #also please ignore the placeholder buckles i was lazy with it i’ll design them properly another time #OH and the face pattern on the helmet is based on the phantom of the opera bc yknow. phantom. #thot that was just a bit clever anyway.
