#but i just...miss the old formatting

[thebraxiatelcollection]

Relistening to earlier big finishes make me miss single-story audios, they used to do, rather than the boxsets they are all going for these days. They had so much more time to develop the characters over the single cd release and have good solid character arcs, and more time for the actual plot to be properly structured as well rather than trying to cram it into one story over a 4 story arc.

I get why big finish have done this for money and marketing purposes, but I would really rather pay more for good quality stories in single release format than get three other stories that just feel 'meh' with one good story in the box set.

I also miss it when they weren't afraid to go crazy with the writing and put the characters through some trauma.

I feel the only time this has truly worked is with the Jago and Litefoot boxsets. And the Epoch-Legion Benny arcs.

#april listens to big finish #big finish #i mean dont get me wrong #there were also some awful single release cds back in the earlier days of big finish #but i just...miss the old formatting #dw eu #i said something similar before in the past #i loved the new war room boxset #and i hope the new benny boxset will be better than the previous

My Top Five Cosmere Characters!

Renarin. There's just something so profoundly relateable about him! Maybe it's the fact that disability is so extremely difficult to deal with and yet no one seems to notice your inner struggle because no one understands... maybe it's the fact that Dalinar still pretends he does not exist and Renarin's struggle to reckon with that is so poignant... but I just adore him and would die for him tbh! Also can we please see more interactions between him and Hoid? Thanks.

2. Lightsong. The idea of a god who does not believe in his own religion has always been so very fascinating to me! He's funny, he's insightful, and his arc is unbelievable. Love this dude. Also someone made a parody on 17th Shard about him to the tune of "Gaston" and it is everything to me.

3. Tress. I am absolutely the type of person who would rather curl up with a book than undergo a daring adventure, and yet Tress's bravery and ingenuity have always been astounding to me! She is the Buttercup of our generation and I love her for that.

5. Kaladin. I have to include him. He is the OG fave, the beginning of my love for Cosmere. To see someone struggle with the continuous drain of depression while finding it in himself to care and to hope is so beautiful. I also just love keeping a running smile count throughout the series. Plus, he has some pretty iconic lines and I like occasionally laughing at him for his endearing obliviousness.

5. Lift. Yes, I know this list is heavily Stormlight-skewed, but it was my first exposure to the Cosmere, and Lift is just the best! I love seeing her interactions with Szeth, Wyndle, and just everyone else! Her Peter Pan complex is also very real... wishing her the best in her impending teenage crisis!

#stormlight #cosmere #kaladin #lightsong #tress #lift #just a little ranking for ya #sorry about the formatting #my blog is 1 year old and I still don't know how to do it #renarin #I knew I missed one

Quahaug Concept Art

Quahaug's concept/reference art! Translation notes and image id under the cut.

Translation notes:

"OP sort of powerset" was literally translated as something like "cheat-like." I feel like OP is the more common English term for that sort of thing, so that's what I used, but some of the meaning was probably lost there.

"Older-tween-ish" was specifically a reference to a particular middle school year for children who are about 12-13 years old. Since grades and names of grades vary a lot from country to country, I just went with "older tween."

ID:

[Image id: Several images displaying different parts of 2 pages of the Triangle Strategy artbook, with both the original Japanese as well as versions with English translations. There are several disclaimers noting that the translator doesn't speak Japanese, and that there are likely many mistakes.

On one page, there is a large colored version of Quahaug's canon portrait, along with a smaller, uncolored version. There is an illustrator's note at the bottom that translates to read, "'Manipulating time' is an OP sort of powerset, so though he looks like a child, I aimed to create a look for him that conveyed a sense of unknowable power. (Tatsuaki Urushibara)".

On the second page, there are many drawings of Quahaug, including a closer bust-up portrait in which he's compared to Lyla, with an arrow and label reading, "Mother." There's also several notes that explain the construction of his costume. The costume is labeled as a Greek "phelonion" (a priest's outfit with no real sleeves, just draping fabric). There is a small drawing of this version, with an arrow leading to another drawing that does have sleeves, with the note, "If you can't display this in pixels, use this one." There are several notes that explain how this draping cloth should be considered his everyday clothes, while the ceremonial decoration that goes around his neck is placed over it. There is a close up of the ceremonial dressing's fastenings underneath the metal decoration. Some more notes highlight details on his staff, emphasizing the hourglass on top and the small wheel to the side that can be turned to flip the hourglass. A larger piece of text underneath one fullbody drawing reads, "Character Who Manipulates Time."

On the second half of the second page, there are drawings of some beta designs for Quahaug. He looks much more punk-ish. On one bust-up portrait, there are the captions, "The burden of the time demon caused some of his hair to go gray…." and "All-natural highlighted tips." On the same portrait, he is snapping his fingers, and there's a note that reads, "Manipulating time is as easy as snapping your fingers. You just have to want it or whatever." A speech bubble near his head reads, "I don't think of Anna as a mother." A caption pointing to some green markings on his arm reads, "Demonic time seal on body." In a fullbody drawing of his beta design (which is made up mostly of chains that barely cover him as well as a long roughed-up cloak, there is the note, "Almost naked cloak."

At the bottom of the second page, there is another note that reads, "Initially when we hadn't quite figured out the setting, we had an idea for a more older-tween-ish character as displayed here, but after discussing it with the producers and Mr. Ikushima, we went with his current form. As a boy who manipulates time, I placed an hourglass at the tip of his staff, and his face resembles that of his mother, Lyla. (Tatsuaki Irushibara)". /end id]

#triangle strategy #quahaug #lyla viscraft #triangle strategy artbook #ts artbook character ref sheets #at long last. emo quahuag #despite the WTF factor I really love the page. HE'S SO LITTLE. SO SO LITTLE. like in his canon portrait he could arguably be like 14-15 #but in those drawings on the second page he is indisputably a baby. look at that little face. HE'S SO CUTE #and that note about Anna really cracks me up. can't believe we missed out on having Anna try to wrestle with an angsty 12-year-old #also! trying out a slightly different format from last time! I will at some point probably throw up another poll about it #as always feel free to leave a comment/tag/anything else with feedback if you have any #at some point in the distant future I will probably go through and try to make all of the translation posts more consistent #but I probably won't go back and do that sort of thing until I get all of them done #oh and also also! as a note I actually messed up my order a bit; I meant to do lyla's first before this one #but she and the other saints will be up next #edit: one of the images had an old version of a translation (used 'something' instead of 'whatever' in the note about snapping fingers) #just reuploaded it

tumblr still lets you write in the old formatter somehow.

any followers of my old blogs, what kind of content do you miss the most?? if you miss any at all?

#unimportant thoughts #just really struggling to get back into the mix of creating things #i hate sitting down and being like ‘i wanna make some posts!’ and just unable to think of anything #I know when i was at my peak i was just constantly rotating scenes around in my head looking for new angles and ideas to post #and i dont find that as stimulating right now #and I know im putting too much pressure on myself about it! #i get it i get it i should just have fun with it #but i want to get this blog back to where my old blog was #i was really content with where my old blog was and how it stood #this one is soooo much of a shadow compared to my old one #and I know thats cause i havent put the same effort in and havent kept up with tumblr as much and i only have 1/4 of the followers i did #but thats my whole thing is i want to put in some effort again! i miss running my blog and interactin with people all the time! #ANYWAYS #long dumb rant over #what were your favorite posts of mine??? favorite categories? formats? kinks?

[loversandantiheroes]

Genuinely too tired to talk much, and keeping up with tumblr has been impossible, but ty guys for the thots and thoughts you've thrown my way. This temp hiatus for the brain health has taken a lot longer than I'd hoped, but hopefully in a few weeks once I'm back to level ground with my meds I can start inching my way back. Trying for a positive outlook for once, lol.

#i miss writing #quite a lot #and i have been missing some of the old wips and such #got consumed with the idea of rewriting a chunk of HH #and im not certain if its a thing i want to commit to *now* or if its better left for potentially reworking it as an original piece #bc honestly restructuring like that is probably best suited for traditional format #but anyway #i digress #we're all just making the barbies kiss and/or commit war crimes for our own amusement #right now that should be the focus #anyway this is just to say i am not ignoring asks #i have read and appreciated them all #i am just too low on spoons for proper responding #but iluall ❤️

[prismatoxic]

loving the timeline i got to witness of:

-yahtzee reviews a game on zero punctuation -in the course of the script he finds a reason to bring up ayn rand/atlus shrugged, mostly as a joke -brings up ayn rand again as the closing punchline -final credits message is "bioshock was a good game wasn't it" -one day later the escapist uploads a new extra punctuation about why bioshock's opening is amazing

did you get bioshock on the brain by any chance, mr. croshaw?

idk what his schedule of making ZP/EP looks like, though i do suspect that EP might possibly be visually edited by someone else? i'm like 99% sure yahtz still does ZP by himself except to pass it by matt the editor for notes on where he should maybe swear less, but EP is kind of visually different (despite using yahtzee's art still) so maybe he just reads his script and lets matt do the visuals? idk. the man's busy he puts out 2 videos like every week, i wouldn't blame him

regardless, my point is that idk where in the process he decided to make an EP on bioshock, but the idea of him writing the sea of stars script, thinking about ayn rand a little too hard, and getting on a bioshock kick because of it is pretty damn funny

if he addresses this in the bioshock video i'm going to feel very silly but i was just taking a food + youtube break so i only watched the sea of stars review for now

#sorry i think yahtzee has been a part of my life for so long that he's some sort of special interest #i know he used to be very... uh... Colorful #and still makes bad taste jokes from time to time #but he's not worse than south park and i think getting married and having kids calmed him down #i watched a compilation of old ZPs several months ago and while there were still funny jokes it was definitely kind of a #“you should not be saying that” cringefest #and it's funny bc i saw all of those videos before. i watched many of them when they came out #i just forgot how bad it was lmao... #my late uncle who i loved very dearly introduced me to yahtzee's work and i've never really moved away from it #took a break for a few years for reasons i don't recall #but then spent weeks going through the backlog of videos i'd missed lmao #i respect his opinions and he's made me pick up several games bc of how he described them #(psychonauts and saints row 2 come immediately to mind) #and it's impressive bc ZP has never used visuals from the games he's talking about you kind of just have to take him on his word #the “new” video format for EP does use game visuals which is another reason i think yahztee isn't the one putting it together #(real gamers remember when extra punctuation was an escapist column and not a video series) #sorry i kind of went off here in the tags didn't i. thanks for reading #if you did. which. if you did read them you'll be reading this! #thank you i care you #tox.txt

[markanddebbie-protectionprogram]

i literally have zero self-control but like [kicks down the door] LOOK-

the very first dress-up game i originally made layla on is gone but recently i found THIS absolute gold mine

^^ it's great!! the casual outfit options are pretty limited (or maybe it's just me cause i speeded this way too much out of excitement) BUT the options for the hero look part is a LOT (and heavily inspired by marvel so extra kudos) plus it also has some effects that can showcase your character's power/s

#invincible #invincible oc #invincible series #invincible krystal #ilyana ignacio #💎🪡 #it just dawned to me that i made layla two years ago- #nearly three now #it was on this really old retro game way back then cause it was a link our professor provided for us to customize our project #i can still remember the outline and formatting of the game and it had a girl and a guy version #i revisted it when i found the project instruction file but now the game was GONE #but then i found this and just WOW it's like an updated version ngl- #(i'll miss the original jacket but this one is suuuuuper close so i'm taking it) #summer.txt #summer.jpg

an excerpt from "the return of protesilaus"

As Techno walked, he began to speak again, “I'm gonna destroy that prison block by block,” he growled, to which Phil knitted his eyebrows in confusion, clearly misunderstanding. 

“You were destroying it block by block?” he questioned. 

“No-” Techno sighed, as their steps fell in time with each other. “I’m saying that I’m going to, although technically we were, not very quickly, though . . .” 

He couldn't help but constantly take in everything around him, it felt so new, yet it was the most familiar place in the world.

“That would take weeks!” Phil exclaimed as he turned to face him. Techno whipped around, shooting him a glare.

“Oh, yeah, Phil, if only we’d had weeks,” Techno said through gritted teeth, his frustration rising once more.

“Techno, c’mon, I thought you’d said three months, and we can’t change that now,” he replied tersely.

“And why would I say three months?” He found himself wanting to cry, to scream at Phil and shout till his lungs were sore. He longed to turn around and go right back to the prison, this time armed, so he could end Quackity forever. 

The world seemed to crash and burn around him, and his ears roared as he stared down.

Techno lifted a hand to touch the emerald in his ear, only to remember that he had left it at the house. His hand dropped, and the frustration settled deep within his mind. He stalked forward and grabbed Phil’s shoulders, then hit their heads together. The gesture wasn’t gentle, considering the fact that it was full of frustration, but Phil could tell it wasn’t done with malicious intent.

Despite the shouting and arguing, Techno found himself leaning on Phil for support, wanting to tell him everything, wanting to explain why he was so upset, but he couldn’t. He wanted to fit his emotions into a sentence, to describe how deeply he cared for his friend, to describe everything, but he couldn’t. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t force his mouth to open.

Phil reacted first, grabbing a hold of Techno and snaking his arms around his waist, wrapping him into a comforting hug, each one accepting that they didn’t want to lose each other. Not because of Quackity, not because of a silly argument over plans that had passed. Techno pulled them down so they were seated together, exhaustion finally taking hold.

“I’m . . . so, so sorry, I shouldn’t have left you in the prison for three months,” Phil whispered into Techno’s hair, and he held onto him with an iron grip. They stared at each other, foreheads still touching, Phil’s immortal golden eyes boring into Techno’s, and his age and wisdom seemed to shine through as the embrace lengthened, two friends finally reunited. 

They stayed like that for a couple of minutes, just clinging to each other, before Phil finally pulled away. He got up slowly, dusting his knees off before reaching a hand out to Techno. The piglin smiled and grabbed it as he rose to his feet.

“Did you get any knowledge? Did you learn anything?” he asked, curiously cocking his head and looking at Techno. The other nodded and started to walk towards the house as Phil continued, “we’re gonna need all of it, cause that prison is very complex.”

They walked into the house and Techno took it in. The warmth seeped into his skin, so different from the overbearing heat of the lava. He turned his eyes to the books, still worn from countless hours that he had spent pouring over them, and to the anvil, where he slid his fingers over the cold surface. 

They got to work, Phil grabbing books he thought Techno might need as Techno fluttered throughout the house. He was slightly dazed as he grabbed equipment. They worked in silence, and Techno shifted uncomfortably now. He had once liked the silence, but being trapped in that cell where your own thoughts feel so loud that they might bounce around the room had changed him. And Phil picked up on that, of course he did, because he’s Phil. He knew Technoblade better than anyone else in the world. Phil cleared his throat as he grabbed another book , 

“So, what was it like in there?” he murmured quietly, not loud enough to break the ambiance they had set.

“Bro . . . it was boring,” he laughed, but the laugh fell flat and died quickly. He wanted to make a joke about it, but at that moment, he felt like Phil needed to know. “It . . . was quiet most of the time,” he whispered, not looking at Phil directly. He could vaguely see Phil nod in reassurance.

“The colour of the walls started to blend together sometimes, the different shades of purple almost warped, in a way? And the lava . . . if I stared long enough, it would sometimes change in speed . . . it was so small in there, Phil . . .” he stilled for a second, taking a deep breath before continuing,

“Dream and I took turns hitting that fucking obsidon, both of our hands were scraped up. There’s our blood on the walls, Phil . . . where we sleep, there’s our fucking blood staining the walls. And I was calm at first but then I got angry and upset, you know? At the situation, at Dream, at you. I had to stay calm, though, if I wanted to go home. Anger makes you stupid, and stupid gets you killed.”

He was rambling now, he knew. But he couldn’t stop the flow of words spewing from his mouth. He was practically vomiting sentences, itching to get them out, as he felt the desperation clawing at him. 

“I thought I was going to die,” he whispered, and a tear slid down his cheek. “I-I had a bell, though; I would drive Dream insane with it.”

Phil felt awful, the guilt stripping away at his insides and fogging his mind as he continued to work away. Neither spoke after that, but both were grateful that Techno had put his pain out to dry in the open.

“It doesn’t sound very boring, then,” he laughed lightly, trying to joke and instantly regretting it. He saw the way Techno reacted, the way he caved in on himself and his stomach sunk. He swore if it sank any harder he would fall through the floor with it.

“C’mon mate, you’re out here now,” he tried again, the sickly feeling of regret holding him tight. Techno whipped around and shouted at him, his voice now sore from the repeated outbursts. 

“I could have been out months ago! But I had to stay there, because somebody couldn’t read a book!” he was breathing heavily, and Phil’s breathing was beginning to match.

“It was titled ‘will’!” he cried back, “It’s what you read when someone’s dead!” He could barely hear Techno over the pounding of his heart; his hands were shaking too hard. He knew that he shouldn’t argue back, he had no right to. But he couldn’t help it.

Techno slammed the chest down hard, splintering the wood as he held onto the lid. His knuckles turned white, and he was heaving out his exhales. His voice was trembling with every word he spoke, and his jaw clenched so hard that it hurt . 

“It was so people wouldn’t realise! Don’t you know what good writing is, Phil? It was a fucking diversion, apparently not a good one, because you can’t read! ” The volume was loud, too loud, as his argument suffocated the room. And then the terrible silence had returned once more.

Both of their breathing was too loud, their heart beats deafening. The air outside was too painfully loud.

But Phil’s next words weren’t, “Don’t make fun of me,” he whispered, the pain was so clear in his voice that Techno flinched. “I read the part that said ‘go to the secret book club’, are you happy?” he hissed out. But he wasn’t done. “Aren’t you happy I got you out of death, Techno?” and before he finished, Techno chimed in with his own argument, 

“You helped eventually!” he shouted. Phil started walking out, he couldn't take it. He was suffocating in here. Techno followed him, close on his heels.  

“Do you have any idea how long it takes to punch obsidian?” Techno seethed, clenching his fists. The pain wasn’t held in his palms, but it might as well be. “So much progress was lost! We were monitored, w-”

“ I COULD HAVE LOST YOU, ” Phil screamed. The scream was terrifyingly loud, piercing through Techno’s heart before he could register. He looked at Phil, and when he did, his heart broke. Phil stood there, shaking, as tears ran freely down his face. He couldn't help but sigh and wish that the lump would leave his throat. He walked over, slowly, to where Phil stood, and rested Techno forehead against his once more. 

Techno whispered quietly, almost as if he was afraid of someone intruding on their moment, “I don’t hate you, I can’t hate you . . . I couldn’t if I tried,” and Phil could only nod.

Thinking abt the random card au again. Why must it go so crazy hard I miss it sm

#rat rambles #random card au #no matter how far I drift from my bndori and sekai peak days the random card au keeps hitting me like a truck every now and then #it just scratches an itch that I havent been able to satisfy since my cr days years and years ago #I wouldnt say the random card au has super similar worldbuilding to my old cr stuff as that was much more large scale #but it still has a similar appeal to me I think #I think its the building entirely new worldbuilding based off of designs and general vague starting concepts and bringing them all together #that gets me invested as it feels so satisfying slotting it all together and then actually getting to play out the story in this new web #I loveeeee jumbled webs of worldbuilding and characters that all tie together in a way that makes it almost impossible to completely #seperate one cast of characters from another #I love the feeling of a world with a bunch of intertwining plots like that even if it makes it near impossible to format a normal story #like my cr stuff was just so much man I still miss it sometimes even if I hate cr itself #Ive become a much better story creator too now so I know I could make what I had so much better nowadays and I already like my old stuff #it just makes me all the more sad that I went so crazy hard on worldbuilding for a franchise that sucks ass </3 #it may have been two of the worst years of my life but Ill also never reach that worldbuilding high again I think #oh also it made me actually start the slow slow process of getting more ambitious with my art and doing more digital stuff #rly thats the biggest reason the random card au pains me so since I wanna post stuff for it but man do I not wanna draw anyone from it #first of all human characters so already eh but also Id have to adapt the cards theyre based on into a design I can actually draw #so as much as I wanna make a billion random card au animatics I cant even bring myself to draw them normally #you see olivia and jackie are easier to draw because I just made shit up for their designs and as such made their designs very simple #but I cant just make shit up for bndori and sekai characters they actually have designs and hair that Id have to adapt to my style it sucks #I just wanna draw doggy arisa is that so much to ask for (yes yes it is I dont wanna figure out her hood) #also rip mygo yall will probably never get in but who knows maybe one day Ill have my second bndori era and then y'all will get in #its rly just the fact that they likely wont have enough cards to properly add them for another few years #especially if that other band also gets in if that happens neither are getting enough cards until the servers shut down lol #like I Could just pick and choose but thats boring #kinda ruins the point of the au y'know? #like tbf Ive cheated in the past by reroling two and limiting my options with several sekai characters #but thats just because at the time most sekai characters had almost no usable cards for this au and the two I rerolled were also unusable #like Im sorry but I couldnt just add normal ass hagumi and masking it wasn't happening

//i think, despite the fact that i coded my whole muse page with this blogs' sort of use case in mind, i might stop using the muse page on this blog and opt for an 'active muse' and 'inactive muse' tag, and just make bio posts for each character. That would make keeping things up to date more mobile friendly as well, and this is kind of meant to be a more casual blog than rpvlix. So if i start posting muse bios do not be alarmed. 💛

#ooc #i wont be able to remove the muse page until im on pc #but that's ok. i just want it to be easier to add muses to this blog bc i think of new ones (old characters in my roster that i miss playing #) all the damn time. #so im gonna try working on a bio format i guess.

Car dealership douchecanoe treated me like some unreasonable crazy person for inquiring about "why the fuck is there foam in the CD player. It is unusable. Inspect it and remove it." But I said it more professionally!

He was stuck on the mindset of "why do you care? No one cares about that stuff. CDs are not important. No one uses them. I'm middle-aged and I don't own any."

He'll take an actual look at it if I come back with a CD. Because using something with the same thickness just to show "yeah there is maybe a fraction of a mm of space in there." He is only doing this because I name dropped my dad (⁠-⁠_⁠-⁠;⁠)⁠・⁠・⁠・
