#Doodles #Handplates #UT #Fellplates #Gaster #Asgore #The thought of Gaster able to heal himself! Rather to only have himself to rely on in a world that lives to hurt him (and everyone else) #It's an interesting inversion that's for sure #Is it as satisfying if it's not the one who deserves the broken bones? The pain of rejection or of justice retribution punishment? #It's still the same face - and it's not like he's wholly innocent here either #And besides it's always fun to draw tears hee ♪ #Get him just a bit disheveled aside from the broken bone - it's hard to imagine him in different clothes even after drawing him in the dress #Softer clothes would be so nice to hold Babybones with but even just dropping a shoulder off his coat or untying his bow tie - it's strange! #I do like the image of his flower crown shedding petals when he gets roughed up tho hehe - tossed around just a little too much! #Breaking his hand right down the middle - it'd be much easier with the holes in his hands as a weak point #All his bones could break easier than his hands before that but now- #It's weird to draw Asgore like that lol I dunno....Works well enough for utility but pffblt :P I always forget his pauldrons anyhow lol #Really rubbing it in that Gaster will be fiiiine he's sooooo special what with his ability to heal >:( Lol #It does make him a bit of a target - a regenerating punching bag? Ideal to see just how far you can push him #It was fun to draw with my green coloured pencil as well ahh <3 Healing magic always gives me a bit of the warm fuzzies #It was the original comic that made me fall in love with Handplates after all ♥ Pretty and feelings <3

complicated relationship with taob be damned i have never peaked higher than i did when i was studying tragedies for my english class and wrote the fever dream chapter

#I WAS WRITING AT LEVELS NEVER BEFORE SEEN. OFF THE CHARTS CUNTISM.

What's really funny is when someone reblogs one of my posts (generally from another blog) so I look at their page and it's like "Christians DNI" "Catholics DNI" 💀

My dear human, what in the cinnamon toast crunch frick—

#why are you reblogging from me lol why #and like maybe you didnt know but also. being told i cant even talk to you because of my religious beliefs is so dehumanizing actually #so maybe figure out that im catholic before you reblog my stuff and then say i cant touch yours. just a thought #i try to be gracious. im constantly surrounded by reform presbyterians. i dont expect everyone to bow to my beliefs #but being told that i cant even talk to you because i have a belief system thats not the same as yours is. different #catholic #christian #rant

Just finished His Last Bow and I am feeling so emotional about it.

THANK YOU @jabbage for the tremendous gift you gave all of us this year! Reading these letters all together has been an absolute joy, and I look forward to the novels next year! 💖

#letters from watson #sherlock holmes #his last bow #I have to keep reminding myself Watson isn’t really my penpal because I got so sad that I wouldn’t hear from him before the new year #it’s okay he would want me to have a stiff upper lip about it I’m sure #I’m guessing he has to use a lot of energy to prevent sherlock and mycroft from strangling each other during the holidays #happy new year everyone I love you all so much!!

[francesderwent]

for a moment I was heavenstruck, I’ll show you heaven if you’ll be an angel, your impressionist paintings of heaven turned out to be fakes, well you took me to hell too, it’s hell on earth to be heavenly

#this is me admitting I need a music tag #these are only the ones I remembered off the top of my head #obviously in the context of the song the clara bow one is about the demands of encompassing the strengths of everyone who came before you #and none of their flaws #but ending the album on that in light of all the heaven references that came before #it reads to me as a very vulnerable admission that it’s so hard and awful to be the person always hoping for the best in a relationship #the person putting in the work and believing the best in their partner #wanting it to be real #when you’re alone in that it IS hell on earth

[fowlblue]

Was violently possessed by the urge to make a One Piece OC and I love them already >:3

#working on her ref as we speak cause I finally made a humanoid base so I can design them easier #also I am ignoring canon’s rules for the devil fruit. canon bows before me lol- it’s my sandbox and my action figures now. #I’m being self-indulgent and in a similar vein to Valentine making her a part of a canon character’s backstory. it’s fun. #sorry lol I’m just happy to design new stuff. especially when the rules for a design are so… loose. i mean. have you SEEN one piece. #it’s like how everyone designs warrior cats as silly as possible but People

[seapasture]

I appear to have utterly lost the motivation to interact with anyone. I have one person, but everyone else is too much; all my belongings are too much. I think I am destined to wander, but I can't. I just want to sit by the ocean and observe.

#sorry for being a bit absent - i have gone from being an extreme people-pleaser to feeling very scared and reclusive #i don't seem to have an in between. it would certainly be nice to find it but as it stands it just feels easier putting my walls up #i don't know how to befriend people in a normal manner. i have been taught to perform and it's all i know and it's so lonely #i feel no incentive to mask anymore or bow down to anyone but underneath i am odd and distant. but i am tired #i can't perform anymore and i have lost my filter. i don't understand why people put on pretences anymore when before i was one of them #at least i'll be seeing my therapist soon but it really feels like i'm living in a simulation. please don't worry about me though #i think any interactions at the moment will make me flee like a terrified animal so just thought i'd give a heads-up #please don't mind if i retreat again or am a bit quieter - keep well everyone #sea rambles

Critmas 2022 - Reveals and Recs

Reveals are up for this years Critmas Exchange, and here's a few of my favorites from this year.

I definitely suggest checking out the entire collection, there's a lot of good stuff and a lovely variety of fic and art.

From oldest posting date to newest:

Series of Smaller Adventures by 2ManyBoys - Shadowgast, 3576 words. This is a wonderfully soft post-canon domestic Shadowgast fic, complete with book organization, mistranslations, and cats.

Fjord's Very Best Day by @EnemytoSleep - Fjord, 3902 words. It's the gift I received this year, but I would have gotten a spot on this rec list anyway - on Fjord's experiences after the sinking of the Tide's Breath, and some of the choices he made after. A lovely and at times very visceral character study.

Your Heart Taking Root by @demenior - Fearne & Orym & Dorian, 2732 words. An soft and well characterized exploration of the trio's friendship - amazing work on character's voices, and they all love each other so much, each in their own way.

i usually run when the world starts ending by @grayintogreen - Artagan/Jester Lavorre, 4515 words. Artagan grappling with his not-quite-godhood during the Iron Shepherd's arc. It does a great job incorporating other pieces of Critical Role lore, and Artie is extremely fey while still clearly in love.

And then my own:

Someone Else's Ghost Story - Kingsley Tealeaf, 3429 words. While in Rexxentrum, Kingsley runs into someone from Lucien's past. Spoilers for The Nine Lives of Lucien, but more importantly, the story probably makes a great deal more sense if you know the spoilers beforehand. Anyway, check them all out! And thanks again to @capitola for stepping in at the last minute to run it!

#Critical Role #Critmas 2022 #Fic Recs #CR fic #Shadowgast #Fjord Cr #Dorian Storm #orym of the air ashari #fearne calloway #Artagan #jester lavorre #Kingsley Tealeaf #2manyboys if you see this I can add your tumblr I just wasn't sure if you wanted your AO3 handle publicly associated with it #I'm also just so glad it happened this year because I think wiccy bowed out the day before I had a couple organs removed (planned) #and was like 'this would be a bad idea for me to step up to try to run this' but it didn't look like anyone else was for a while #congrats and thanks to everyone who participated

Lmaoooo okay so MAJOR story spoilers ahead-

But I just finished the crisis at hyrule castle quest line (after thorough googling that I wasn't going into the final boss, of course) and went back to the landing where everyone gathered to discuss what to do next.

It was all very solemn and thoughtful, everyone theorising and letting it sink in how incredibly dangerous ganon was, and then purah and riju are like 'omg there was a sixth sage maybe we can find whatever they've left behind maybe it can help us' and then Link IMMEDIATELY speaks up like 'oh yeah about that I've already found her. Yeah she's fine she's going to help us. I've also got the master sword too by the way'.

Everyone was SHOOK. I got praise and amazement from all sides. Purah was like 'ALREADY???!! And you didn't think to TELL ME??' it was great.

Never felt more like canon link in my life. I've got a screenshot of everyone's :O?! face. Going to be riding that high for hours XD.

But it's very impressive that I managed to procrastinate so hard I managed to skip about three major plot lines just by squirrelling my way where I'm not supposed to be purely by accident lmao.

#totk spoilers #<- MAJOR ONES #loz #legend of zelda #tears of the kingdom #totk #loz totk #loz tears of the kingdom #Purah: I can't believe what we're up against. And how hard it must have been! But you're so calm and collected about it! #Me: aw thanks keep talking ^^ #Purah: you're really a wonder link. I'm amazed by what you can do! It's up to us now! Let us help you!! ✌️ #Ngl finding the thunder head heart door was pure. PURE chance. It was night and I couldn't see the arrow head on links bow #Pouring rain and thunder. Somehow managed to blindly claw my way to the top of the ruin and spent ages trying to find out what it was #At the very last second before I left I slipped on the side of the wall and fell all the way down. Straight onto the shrine. #Eventually gathered the hearts and came right back to do the whole thing. No idea it was supposed to be a triggered quest until now LMAO #But fr everyone was so shaken after ganons vision and link was just standing there like 🙄 he's already had a dozen of them XD #'pig man should have gone into theatre. Tryna play me with zelda when I know full well where she is. your precious phantoms were RUBBISH' #Seriously don't worry about the fight if you have the vows and decent armour I posed so silly and took several attacks to the spleen #And it did absolutely NOTHING. Several photos of link with phantoms furious heads in view and I lost MAYBE 3 hearts total. No anti gloom!! #I will say the image of broken doll zelda dissolving into gloom smoke will probably traumatise link but what's one more lol

[justalitlecreacher]

Theater etiquette is in fucking shambles

#this is directed to the parents of the boy behind me #who did not once tell him to stop talking though the whole show #this is directed to the girl sat next to me #who kept quietly singing just loud enough to be obnoxious #this is directed to everyone who left before final bow #for context I saw Wicked live and it was incredible

[maskyartist]

Idk how my new rwby followers are gonna feel knowing I don’t like Cinder…

#masky says #idk feel like not liking cinder is some sorta offense #like EVERYONE loves her meanwhile m just sorta mgnslsnsl ngh idk #she just seems kinda…one note I guess #idk I’m rewatching v2-3 n I’m reminded that I liked her before she got the maiden powers #like tbh I miss her weapon so much #her bow that turned into swords that was tight #n her glass heels we haven’t heard that sound in forever #idk idk just thinkin thoughts #her newer self just always didn’t sit right with me

king dedede @ magolor after arriving on halcandra

#egg engines is kinda a hellscape LMAO #dangerous dinner aint much better #its either abandoned mechanical wasteland full of sewage or Lava Place #no wonder he just stays inside the lor all the time #this actually factors into my own hcs abt him actually like. he grew up on halcandra so long after the ancients left it decrepit #and he grew up being told stories abt their exploits and abt galactic nova and hes named after the lor itself #(hes trans in my hc but didnt change his name bc he likes the honor and its not gendered) #so he expected to be just like the wizards who came before him and trained all hus life but ultimately was judt a shadow of what they were #and his planet is near uninhabitable and he also grew up alone after a point in time #so he wanted to live somewhere else but bc his ego is so inflated by him being a descendant hes like. a conquerer and a bitch #this isnt me woobifying him hes still a villain in the first game very much but he’s egotistical and has no people skills #and he thinks hes supposed to be this grand inventor wizard who everyone should bow down to #hes got a complex is what im saying #and he was wayyyy in over his head and he literally nearly dies from the master crowns possession #echoed voice #also think hes really close to the rtdl gang and lor post redemption bc theyre the first real friends hes ever had #i mean the lor lets him fly it still so i think it likes him. i think it finds him endearing bc it did know the ancients #and hes like…. wow i have friends now. im gonna break my back trying to impress them’’ and builds multiple theme parks #styled after him ofc bc hes still obsessed w himself he just knows not to pull that shit now #rtdl liveblog #damn this was a meme post and i went blorbo mode on magolor sorry. lmao

#the thing abt me is that if u complement me in an academic context i will melt #me walking into every interview: fuck this school. i dont wanna go there. im sad. on one is gonna want me. i can hardly function. fuck this #me walking out of every interview: fuck. the project is cool and they said nice things abt me 😭 #fuck. the guy from the lab i interviewed with basically said if u wanna be here i can make it happen. i like ur style and i think ur a #super good candidate 😭 and he quoted my wanky writing bc i got a bit flowery and idealistic lol #and hes on the admissions committee so he was like: yea i can support u if u want just let me kno #and fucking hell the project is cool. but the thing is i think id have to be less of a sad sac bc i think he expects a lot and is hands off #but it is a big institution with a lot of creative ppl and theyre good abt supporting interdisciplinary work #so like the opportunities there would be pretty fucking great i think. hhhhhh god. theres no way i could take the uk one now #fuck. wtf am i gonna do abt that? do i bow out now before ive committed so they have a shot with another person #or is it too late for that bc they already put my name forward to the committee #god dammit. this was the one i was supposed to b like yea no shot am i getting this. and now im like fucking considering it like #the opportunities.... but id have to live in new jersey... it would b closer to home i guess. id b back on east coast time #and i could work with Yellowstone organisms. and i bet the classes r pretty fucking rad education wise #god. decisions. im gonna play Choices by the Hoosiers like a million times #thats what i did wjen i was deciding to go for undergrad. and then i didnt even decide. i was just like... well i dont wanna go to the #place all my classmates r going. i will go 3hrs away. then 12hrs by plane for my masters #fuck. at least it went well. everyone was nice and the 2nd guy i talked to was like: #even if u dont go here. email me if u end up working with zinc and i can help. and i was like 😭 #i got a bit rambly with him but whatever he was 15min late so we're even lol #i was way too nervous. but it was ok. but also i dont understand wtf other incoming phd students r like?? #like they say im a good candidate and ive got good background and im like ??? what sort of losers r u looking at if u think im good? #i just think maybe what i wanna do is unique and very specific so im like not trying to do just anything. i have standards lol #and apparently im more coherent than i give myself credit for. i talk good sometimes and i have enthusiasm when i dont feel like im dying #god. i was not expecting this. i dont belong at a school working with tech startups like wtf. i come from a place of slightly trash #universities lol. well my undergrad uni wasnt so bad... well i mean the city is the butt of a lot of ohio related jokes tho. im looking at #u klinger. fucking mean streets of toledo. whatever the school im at now is worse. couldnt even keep my boss here smh #anyway what the fuck. and i got a lotta writing done today what the fuck #me being competent???? unheard of. god. imagine if i had my shit together. i could kill god. algae and other scientists would fear me #unrelated

[musicrunsthroughmysoul]

I didn't think I was going to get so emotional over this Big Country video/performance, but I did and it's...not pretty.

I'm not gonna post this video, but I actually watched it in spite of wondering why literally all of them are shirtless (not that I'm, uh...exactly complaining), and aside from that, when Stuart says "So when you're going [around?], going home tonight, to your nice, safe, warm cars, take a good look around you - there's a great, [brave? grave?! that beautiful accent befuddles me], big world out there, and all of us are responsible for it" he then gives...a smile. But it's an incredibly, deeply resigned (almost polite) smile. And it's going to haunt me for the rest of my days. I wish I was joking. It upsets me a lot, actually, because I believe from his facial expressions and everything (including a pause where it's clear he's not quite sure what he's going to say, but it seems like he's searching for something to say that will have an impact on the audience - which is part of why this is so painful) he's being sincere about his brief speech, but then he, like, very briefly moves his mouth away from the microphone (I think because he's fully gauging that he's about to not get any kind of reaction from the audience) and then moves his face again so his mouth is mostly hidden by the microphone and gives that resigned smile (those deep dimples!!!) which says...oh god, everything. To me, it says: "I know what I just said meant nothing to you all [or I would've had at least some reaction (from the audience)]," "Sorry for wasting your time," "Oh, how funny of me to think that any of you would catch that I'm calling you out on your privilege - my bad," and finally, "Hello EXISTENTIAL DREAD, MY OLD FRIEND". 😭 All of that plays on his face in that like not-even-two second span of a smile. And. Oh god. Yeah. I'm just gonna be...haunted. By it.

I don't say any of this at all negatively, by the way - I do not think less of him for that. But then again, I appreciate when my favorite artists give little, like...motivational speeches and stuff at their concerts, actually, because no matter what anyone else thinks, THEY'RE PRETTY MUCH ALWAYS RELEVANT. Stuart's speech was relevant because of what "Rockin' In The Free World" is about! I mean, okay, maybe it was a bit redundant because, with a song like "Rockin' In The Free World," we get it. It's presented very plainly, lyrically, why it was written - what its intent is. BUT, he still makes a good and not-quite-as-strongly-implied-by-the-song point about privilege WHICH, TO SAY AT A CONCERT, IS KINDA BALLSY, NOT GONNA LIE! And clearly it didn't go over with that audience, but does that mean he just shouldn't try at all? So I do think he had reasonable motive (that was actually not totally unnecessary) for saying his spiel. I give him props for trying to give people something to think about, even if they're not going to think about it while they're at a rock concert, lmao...still! Why not take the risk?

Anyway. I don't know if his face there is going to haunt me because of the audience, or because it's like...my empathy just went, "Oh fucking SHIT that hurts, ahaha"...because I can imagine it being both.

#anyway. yes that non-threatening face is seared into my memory for all-time now. and I wanna cry about it. lol #WAIT OH WAIT TO MAKE THIS BETTER AT THE END BEFORE THEY BOW DID TONY MIME GRABBING STUART'S ASS? Oh I'M GONNA DIE- #LAUGHING this time. OR DID HE ACTUALLY DO IT? I mean...those fucking LEATHER PANTS*. I doubt he actually did it. #wait no - actually Tony must've grazed him enough that Stuart started looking around like 'oh hello? who just touched me #slightly inappropriately?' 😂 oh man. bless you Tony for making this slightly painful memory now slightly less painful. :') #*which also reminds me of the S-K concert I was at where Corin made a point during the show to be like #'we just want you to know that Carrie finally washed her leather shorts recently...yeah. we're all grateful she did.' LMAO #ANYWAY I'M GOING TO BED NOW YES. GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE!
