Kiseki Dear to Me really said ‘we have tortured Ai Di and Chen Yi long enough - let’s give them all the kisses in the final episode’ and I am here for it.

Oh boi even more of One au in like 3 hours lol

I like to think that like how in @phoenixcatch7's Doll au there's gas versions of like cures and such in the batfam's gas masks since they don't need to breath when possessing the puppets right? I like to think there's an organic version of that with the meat puppet bodies, at least with Bruce, where the plates on his neck opens up into vents of sorts, pictured here with a few spikes removed for visibility reasons.

This gas could be some cures for like Joker venom & Fear gas and such, or it could also be sedatives, paralytics, could even vary between each member. (For example in the Cryptidverse Steph has Anesthetics on her claws, Jason has reflective powder that mimics embers/sparks, Cass has paralytics, etc). Honestly I am just brainstorming so this could definitely change lmao

I do like to think they start developing their own venom though, gotta' have those fangs & tusks for some reason lol

#meat marionette au #batman au #cryptid batman #cryptid batfam #body horror #batman #dcu #dc #Sorry Phoenix if I am spamming you lol #Honestly I feel like Bruce & Kane are the only ones with like big-ish tusks as though to show they're the fully grown ones of the group #Batwoman has set up shop in Bludhaven while Bruce usually sticks to Gotham me thinks but they still help each other out because family <3 #God I want to ramble about their language and body language and stuff so bad lol I love world building #I also totally haven't been writing a drabble for this for the past hour lmao #The caves have a favorite mortal and It's definitely Bruce lol #Okay but now I am thinking of how Bruce & Clark could meet the first time lol #Bruce can definitely sneak up on Clark if he wants to and it's probably terrifying lol #Something I will have to think about for later I suppose #What are the tunnels? Fuck if I know lol #The drabble totally isn't from Its pov tho lol (definitely not) #Tumblr don't eat my tags 2023 #Bruce definitely freaks out the first time he sees his second body #Not helped by the fact the first time he sees it he is piloting it and emerging from a flesh wall #All stumbly like a newborn deer (not helped by long limbs and body all differently proportioned & more limbs lol) #The secondary body's face is something between a human and an animal's muzzle #Dick deserves electric organs like an electric eel so he can shock people #Y'know what Cass deserves pitch black flesh & organs- like I am talking vantablack barely lets in any light black #Bruce is probably more wary about taking in kids what with the whole eldritch thing beneath the streets but really what choice does he have #All of them were already trying to do vigilante work & they'll end up killed if he doesn't help them :/ #He loves them but he *really* wishes the tunnels didn't take a liking to them as well because they're already traumatized enough #He wishes it didn't call to them like it did to him so long ago

As a transmasc person Ken's arc is something that reasonate so much with me. It's about being born into girlhood but never really fitting, not being able to truly connect with the girls despite your best attempt and never getting invited to pijama parties. And than you're rejecting everything feminine, throwing away dresses and cute clothes, and invest yourself so much into your "masculine" interest that it becomes your whole personally and without realizing it you've became a bit agressive to hide all your insecurities about who you are. And finally you realize that you don't want that, that constant agression and performance of thoughness, and you're making up with femininity, find support and community in men, and accept that you're nothing but a dumb little guy and you are kenought

IT IS MERMAY. Awesome @avonneslovelies has an amazing Lucemond MermaidAU called We will met on the horizon and she answered this ask about it. It basically gives us more details about the merpeople in her AU and also gave me this super cute mental image of loner squishy kid Aemond and his tiny murder octopus.  So, I had a mission, to try my best to interpret her vision of MerAemond and draw it with his tiny super cute blue-ringed octopus 🥹 I personally liked the idea of KidAemond having his little moments with his octopus friend before the eye accident, so both eyes here, and some happiness for the kiddo.  Maybe he’s a little bit cute and squishy here, let’s imagine it as the calm before the storm, the accident will definitely make him train more and be less cute and squishy :(, juveniles/children in a lot of species are always simple/ugly/or cute before they reach adulthood and need to be the baddest bitches too, lol. 

#Lucemond #MERMAY 2023 #MerKidAemond #finally putting more effort on my backrounds #lol #me trying my best to nail the iridescence like scales hehe #im in love with hair underwater now #i like flowy things #my interpretation final word always goes to the amazing author #definitely one of my favorite fics

the top 6 games i played in 2023!

1. Heaven's Vault

An archaeologist uncovers a lost history in an ancient space Nebula.

I know that I said I had mixed feelings about this game in my initial review, and I'm sure if I tried replaying it right now, I still would. But honestly, I think about this game so often, I had to include it in this list. Truly such a unique experience. I'm even thinking of reading the book version.

2. Bugsnax

Catch mysterious living snacks and feed them to your friends in this unusual island adventure!

This is a great game, with fun gameplay and an extremely bizarre but interesting story, but where it really shines is its characters. You might not guess on first glance, but the character development in this game is so good and so rewarding. It exceeded all expectations in the best of ways.

3. Sable

Embark on a unique and unforgettable journey and guide Sable through her Gliding; a rite of passage that will take her across vast deserts and mesmerizing landscapes, capped by the remains of spaceships and ancient wonders.

Though it can be glitchy at times, this game is absolutely gorgeous, not just in graphics but in its story and its soundtrack as well. Very, very beautiful game. Not to mention the exploration reminded me of Breath of the Wild: you are free to do what you want, go wherever, and the ending will wait until you're ready for it.

4. Song of Horror

Fear the Presence, a mysterious entity you cannot fight: stay alert, hide, breathe slowly… Explore cursed places where unseen spirits and lost souls linger in a true horror story for the ages.

Unlike other games of the genre, in this you are completely powerless against your enemy—and if your character dies, they are dead for good. These (admittedly sometimes frustrating) mechanics make for a particularly harrowing experience, enhanced by the dark, isolating atmosphere of each chapter. A truly gripping experience.

5. A Plague Tale: Innocence

Follow the grim tale of young Amicia and her little brother Hugo, in a heartrending journey through the darkest hours of history.

The story of this was somewhat unexpected, as I was not anticipating supernatural elements in a game about the black plague, but it was so, so good. It really takes you on a journey, though the highlight of the game is obviously the characters. Both Amicia and Hugo felt not only real, they were also endearing, as were the several friends they made throughout the story. Very much looking forward to playing the sequel at some point.

6. Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun

A new Shogun seizes power over Edo period Japan and enforces nationwide peace. In his battle against conspiracy and rebellion, he recruits five specialists with extraordinary skills for assassination, sabotage and espionage.

I've never played a real-time tactics game before and I'm not at all good at strategizing, so you can probably imagine how frustrating this game was for me; and yet, I absolutely adored it. I found the story and the characters compelling, not to mention this game just makes you feel smart. Completing a level was always so satisfying, and it more than made up for any lingering frustrations in regards to the difficulty of the gameplay.

(Also, fun fact: one of the characters, Takuma, is voiced by the same person that voices the narrator in the Trine games! As a big fan of the Trine series, this delighted me to no end. 😊)

#note: just like last year these are listed in what order i played them not how much i liked them! #besides it may sound like a copout (and it definitely is. at least somewhat lmao) but these games are all so different from each other #it just wouldn't feel right to order them from most to least favorite </3 #heaven's vault #bugsnax #sable #song of horror #a plague tale: innocence #shadow tactics: blades of the shogun #🎮 tag #2023 game tag #send tweet

......Oh my God where did I fall

This is Patalliro in 2023

Exams make people so desperate that they revive corpses

Patalliro: Ah, Zachary, I hear the call of stocks, money is calling me!

Zachary: No.

Patalliro: Hmm... Zachary doesn't want anything to do with me anymore after that incident. But he's a handsome guy, if I'd introduced him to Bancoran, Zachary wouldn't have turned him down. And if Bancoran suddenly needs help with money.... HO-HO

Bancoran: Major Bancoran, MI6 agent, nice to meet you.

Zachary: L-likewise...

Voiceover: And although Zachary didn't even guess at himself, the cards stubbornly advised him to sleep with his eyes open and look around more often

END

#patalliro #Zachary #bancoran #Boku Patalliro #maraich #Yes My God this is Patalliro in 2023 #I just found it and got hyperfixed #There are only 29 chapters available in my language and the manga is still coming out from the 80s #And the patalliro phenomenon itself well..... #It's the 80s #I mean #Don't get me wrong #I'm thrilled #this is the most beautiful bacchanal #But ehhhh #My favorite character is Zachary just because he's the only really kind and honest one among all the blond clones #And Maraich with Bancoran #well... #There is definitely passion between them but they are not an example of perfect love #Bancoran is ready to kiss every blonde curly and then he tells Maraich that he is the only one for him #And Maraich is an obedient dog again because he loves him with all his soul #I feel a little sorry for him he didn't know normal love before or after Bancoran #Zachary should fear for his life when Maraich with a knife is near
