#vashwood #vash the stampede #nicholas d wolfwood #trigun #trigun maximum #tw blood #im posting this so late because october escaped me Suddenly.. hello.... #i wanted to make it a photoset with this other vampire vw wip but i don't think i'm finishing it any time soon and the mood of it is #completely different anyway. also i don't think i ever shared anything about my vampire au on here !!! it's all old art by now so im shy lo #but maybe i'll do a photodump of it. long story short vash is a vampire since birth and ww is a human vampire hunter that turns during thei #travels together due to EoM experiments + getting vash to drink from him at some point. #humans turn once they get bitten but bc ww has been experimented on #& got bitten by a bunch of human turned vampires thruout his hunts he thought it wouldn't be a problem for vash to drink from him but alas. #theyre both ok though theyre traveling together definitely not hating themselves for what theyve become and feeling guilty for what theyve #done to each other. theyre completely normal about it. the biting part is really appealing to me in vampire aus so i draw it a lot but #in reality vash only drank from ww once and ww mightve done it twice under the realization he might actually die otherwise #since he wont drink from humans after being turned.... he's combatting the 5 stages of grief at all times #if this is all nonsense im sorry DMGKSDF I'M NOT good at explaining and this au came from nowhere in the depths of my mind its a mess #ruporas art

#madness combat #madcom oc #my oc #atp soldat #the soldat in the dark (tm) actually cares about his bro #a lot #but he just can't get sad when he warned him about this shit nonstop #no id #The bitten guy just acts too friendly because his program made him too altruistuc and kind #Which sometimes helps since he is one who recruits workers #Well #Probably it's more benefitial most of the time #But he gets in shit like “oh i just wanted to help civilian get out from dangerous location and they stabbed me :(((” #And he ain't bullied for it by anyone but his bro. He is too... Kinda. Uh. Hard to bully guy who is most safest option to talk with auditor #And not die lol. It also doesn't help that he is guy who knows all of the AAHW by names and will kick you hard for bullying anyone #So bullying him is a privilege of some atp soldats #not an option :D #Other soldat here is just walking anger issues and he got no friends other than his bro. Constantly lashes at anyone. The Bitten™ included #So they're got that dynamic of angry antisocial cynical guy and pessimist & optimistic kind dude (well #(well he got a lot of mental issues too #But doesn't show it and never let it hurt others.) #And he is much older than the pessimist :'D #Pessimist guy is very young actually. But just experienced shit nonstop from birthday and lost very much everyone he cared about #And the second one... just atp soldat with no past. never known any other thing than work in AAHW and orders. Easy to manipulate #He also gets “You're not a real person” a lot for it. And constanly offended by it. But it's a problem of all yellow bloods here #Especially him #since he litterally didn't had a life outside from aahw. Also don't think he wouldn't kick his friends hard for orders. #Kill even. He is a dog for orders first #Kind guy with good morals is only second

my research partner and i are huddled in a blanket in paddington waiting for a too-late train i already miss you and you and you

#he keeps falling asleep almost on my shoulder and waking up and readjusting but i want to tell him its ok weve seen a lot #of each other ive seen your brainwaves you called me crying a few nights ago. research partner right now is a potentiality #friend is a certainty. i met a banker passionate about finance. he said his advice made the lives of others better and he likes the numbers #more than he likes anything else. on a high rise near canary wharf the view was wonderful and the people even moreso #he said i loved her but i spent 33 grand on her and i cant do this anymore. his voice cracked talking about her. he did love her. #and she talked softly she grabbed my hand she bought me a pack of Marlborough gold she told me to snap #the russian menthol cigarettes of the tortured polish man near us with my teeth i kept staring at her teeth #bright white and sharp. i couldnt find her heartbeat but i did find warmth and i did find her lips and i did feel #how she felt pressed against a wall. a pretty boy held my hand and i gave him my number. i couldnt stop smiling about her no matter #how many runways youve walked on how many collections youve designed how many students youve taught. senior lecturer teaches me how to do #very unethical things ethically over a double shot of vodka made by the half-persian with broken farsi. she talks softly #and she says her eyes are hazel but they appear a shade of red. pure gold on her hands and leather on her back and her fingers on my lips #(she talks softly sees through me she says something i cant hear but i wont forget the way she flies) she talked to my research partner #about the possibility of moving to sunny dubai with the rest of her family and my heart felt pierced. on her arm i traces a tattoo of a #knife passing through a rose. she told me she thought there was romance in severing so i kissed her some more. #he sat me down and asked me what i loved and i told him and he said no romance no person no tragedy will take that from you. #the room was filled with a collection of people in love with something that wasnt a person and i kept looking at her. #red eyes bitten jawline beautiful hands. it is 3 degrees Celsius my head is on his shoulder i miss my friends #we walked out the lecture hall with arms linked a photo of two years ago and we both said #jesus christ. i miss you all. and i miss logic metatheory lectures. im glad i get to stare at the depth of your eyes #i wish i had met you years ago. #crushposting

baldur's gate is going great

#this is a direct screencap redraw smdh #im really worried i accidentally locked myself out of astarions route jkdgkjf #the first time I rested i got the he bites you cut scene but i thought for some reason in order to romance him i had to save halsin first #so i undid the long rest with a save scrub. but it's been two long rests since then and he hasn't bitten me again #I'm so worried the game thinks it happened #all the other companions have tonnes of dialogue options but he never has anything to say :(((( #anyway. i have lots of fun little mini drawings with my playthrough planned #blood tw

god is dead

#naruto #hidan #kakuzu #kakuhida #hidan strikes me as the kind of person who cries when they get really really overwhelmingly angry #and he also appears to have pretty big emotions a lot of the time so #it's bound to happen #the first time kakuzu made fun of him and got his head bitten off #now he just waits in silence for hidan to calm tf down #i don't know the exact lore of jashin #but I'm a big fine of the idea that hidan made up the whole thing cuz he was immortal and had fucked up urges and was so angry at everyone #that he needed an outlet to just get all of this violence out #an outlet he could justify and use to make himself feel a little better #anyway i picture him getting highly upset any time anyone calls attention to the fact that #there arent any other people who have heard of jashin #or practice that religion #maybe this is the day he confesses everything to kakuzu in a fit of tearful rage #who knows #can you tell i have religious trauma

[marsbotz]

ninjago fandom when ppl stop mischaracterising wu as a one note shitty old guy and realise hes a complex character with just as much of his own trauma as everyone else in the show

#someday i need to make a proper post abt this bc. it makes me a bit crazy LOL #wu is like first and foremost charatwrised by his desire to be like. The Good Child #its been shown wus Default personality is like this cheeky reckless optimist #from like. eps like never trust a human and also. baby wu. in s8-9 #hes rude but hes trusting. very naive in conparison to garmadon whos more reserved and responsible at this point #its only once garmadon gets bitten that he starts to change #once again im begging u guys to read the spinjitzu brothers books. LOL #but over them u can rllyyyy see wu losing this kinda .. naive aspect to him and losing hope in his brother as well #u see him start to doubt himself more and more that garm can be ‘fixed’ #which. well. wu follows after the fsm in this aspect #wu very obviously aspires to be like his father (wearing his hat and clothes and using his staff etc) #when the fsm sends them to find a cure for garm.. wu goes with it. despite garms protests that hes not broken #wu has a Lot of responsibilty on him from very younv as the son of the fsm #and even more so once garmadon becomes like. a lost cause and source of evil or whatever the fuck #the fsm is not kind. in the books someone mentions being thrown out of his home after being accused of stealing #and the brothers agree that sounds like him Alright #canonically the reason wu woukdnt climb over the wall was bc he was afraid of his father catching him. #and wu feels like. immense guilt for garmadon being bitten int he first place. #it seems wus coping mechanism for anything hes ashamed of is… to just hide it. or simply Not Tell You #hence things like morro. he never spoke of morro bc of the guilt of failing to care for him properly.. and Partly bc he failed as a teacher #circling abck to wu imitating the fsm. #wu makes mistakes constantly bc thats who he is! deep down hes reckless and naive but hides it behind this like … aloof wisdom #also i think the parallels u can draw in s9 from him growing up w the expecations to save the ninja.. #w the expectations HE put on the ninja himself… and also similarities w his (first) childhood #very interesting. #i rlly love the line in crystalised when antonia point sout hes recruited children to fight before #bc u can see him Realise. and i dont think its that he just puts this pressure on the ninja bc he doenst care. he just doesnt See #how hes continuing this awful cycle that started w the fsm INT HE FUCKING DRAGON ONI WAR!!!!!!!!! #anyway i cld talk abt this forver but i ran out of tags WEEEEE!!! #farts

[bakingmoomins]

[citrine-elephant]

thinkin about leon suffering blood loss, mild delirium, and laughing his fuckin ass off at nonsense while chris is trying to get this motherfucker to safety

leon's just in chris' chest, breathless and giggling, but he can't remember wtf it was about, and that's only fueling the giggle-fit.

for some reason,,,

#me when i'm short of breath and in pain starting to daydream to aleviate #ithink covid affected my breathing cuz it #it hard ish #that or i fucked up wearing opne of my binders lol #thinking about leon having broken his leg #nearly severing an attery via femur break! #he doesn't cuz it's a death sentence #but it's just.... oof that's a lot! #would getting bitten and rolled by a BOW croc be.... #thinking about the fucker getting his calf and dragging him through somethin #like a catwalk right? between the handrails #it's such a tight squeeze paired with the fuckin BOW trying to death roll him #the angle snaps his fuckin femur and he's lucky to not bleed out then and there.... #unrealistic leon can survive being thrown and smashed and not to mention his head injuries... #leon when getting thrown into a wall + smashing into the ground 'it only kinda hurts its fine' #me in pain = putting the sexyman in WORSE pain

Now I'm stuck on how unhinged and depraved and AWFUL Tuon/Gawyn could be.

#wheel of time #wheel of time book spoilers #Fortuona Athaem Devi Paendrag #gawyn trakand #listen Hannibal the show ruined me as a person #but you can't tell me tuon/gawyn doesn't have that same fucked up sort of energy #oh god I cannot be bitten by the writing urge right now #I have two RPG campaigns and a cruise in like... five days #I do not have the time #BUT TUON LEASHING GAWYN LIKE A DOG #sending him out to fight!! #and when he comes back being disappointed he didn't do more damage #and him spiraling because he hates her and it's wrong but also #he wants to impress her too #she could have captured him when they attacked the tower #or better yet captured him much earlier with egwene #except nobody knows she has him but egwene #by the time they do it's too late and they have to leave him #'oh he's not a channeler it won't be so bad for him' #WRONG #finally he comes back after brutally killing a lot of people and she lifts his chin up and doesn't quite smile #but she tells him 'good boy' and it's game over

[rivilu]

incredibly sorry to everyone that's here for rpg things my interests are flip-flopping to classic lit again. q's full of renfields.

#which is a FEAT mind you considering the tag is full of the 2023 movie which i really hated 😭 #simply because that's not renfield that's jonathan if he ate bugs. stop using the 1930s movie as a reference PLEASE #i still love the 1930s movie but only because bela lugosi and dwight frye were made specifically for those roles- bad script be damned #also because he's basically jonathan the movie had him have an ex lady? RENFIELD? babes. babes. look at me. #the vampire bite is an allegory for many things in the book #when lucy is bitten repeatedly it can be taken as a metaphor for illness #when lucy bites children i see it a lot as a direct flipping of the script of the role she was meant to fulfill- #she's the classic woman archetype as opposed to mina's new woman. she's here to marry and be a housewife with no job etc #but now as a vampire instead of nurturing children she's drinking their life away #visceral victorian shit! #then with mina it's directly assault. straight up. no two ways about it. #but then. look at me. look into my eyes. what do you reckon. the man - the /insane/ man that's SEEKING OUT vampirism #(by another man) #is meant to be an allegory for. in a post wilde trial book. #ofc it's just my read but like. like.

I gotta know that you’re okay I believe you

For @scottappreciation week : relationship

#hayden romero #scott mccall #i wanted to make something better #but #the show is working against me #can you believe that scott and hayden shared the screen only four time ? #otherwise they are never in the same shot #and they don't have a lot of episodes together #which is a crime #especially after s5 #it's like he's never bitten her #:(( #scottmccallweek #teen wolf #mine

[purplecatghostposts]

Obsessed with the idea of a MH Vampire AU where the Operator is an ancient and powerful vampire who’s only mission is to create more vampires so it bites Alex and leaves him to deal with it. Alex doesn’t remember the event so well so he’s miserable and hungry and the sun hurts and he doesn’t know WHY because vampires definitely don’t exist… Right?

*Slaps Vampire!Alex* This bad boy can fit so much self loathing and Hurt/Comfort potential in him

#marble hornets #marble hornets au #still thinking of a name for it #Alex being a miserable newly turned vampire is my new obsession #can’t decide if Tim should also be a vampire who’s been dealing with it for years or if he’s a vampire hunter #Because the Operator used to torment him when he was a kid #So either he got bitten or he just got drained a lot and eventually learned how to kill them #mmmm Alex getting so hungry that he snaps and feeds off of one of his friends and then realizes what he is and hates himself for it #someone save me this is all I’m gonna be thinking about #maybe Tim is immune to vampirism and that’s why the Operator didn’t immediately leave and stuck around to haunt him?

in gossamer breaths you take your leave of the earth you feel below you

tentative to take in the gravity of your acceptance lest you succumb to the numbness

the shift of warmth is a gift you give with all the strength you can muster.

you are stronger than you knew, there is power in this leap of faith

you trust this falling feeling with knowledge that your kindness could never be a failing.

set down from heights of sensation, you are gradually released from the stolen embrace of vertigo

whilst a new embrace holds you and your gaze gently, carefully

and returns you, through the haze of your clouded sight to your ever-beloved task of chasing garnet affections.

#he holds you gently... carefully #astarion #astarion bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #I have a lot of thoughts about being bitten by this particular vampire #the line that used to be in the bite scene really gets me #the inherent tenderness of an act of giving your actual life-force to sustain another #or something like that

What I find really really compelling about Laios' special interest is this:

As a person who's special interest is dogs, I'll tell you right now that I fucking love them. I live in a city full of strays, and I actively go out of my way to pet, play with, and interact with them. It brings me a lot of joy and comfort to be able to be surrounded by puppies.

I will also be the first to tell you that, like it or not, dogs are animals - and animals, ultimately, can be unpredictable. They can be scared, they can be territorial, and they can be impulsive. And while I genuinely believe that there's no such thing as a bad dog or an angry dog - only a scared one - I also don't believe it makes a functional difference once a dog has bitten you what intentions it may have had.

Dogs are dangerous. I've seen people get bitten, I've been bitten, I've had close calls, some of which were my own fault and others which were not.

And Laios reflects this so beautifully, especially in the Kelpie arc. He's not blinded by his love for these creatures, he's not overtaken by baseless empathy - he understands, understands better than anyone, that these are at the end of the day monsters, and they are dangerous, and when push comes to shove sometimes you've just got to kill them. In fact it's his love for them that lands him this knowledge and understanding in the first place - just as I know that there's no room for fear and weakness when it comes to interacting with dogs, he knows there's no room for hesitation and empathy when it comes to interacting with montsers.

It's so fucking realistic of someone who genuinely researches and cares about these creatures, rather than superficially "liking animals" and then trying to assign human qualities to inherently inhuman creatures.

God.

Laios is fantastic fucking representation.

Sure there's zombies killing and eating people on the street but those people are not dying from the virus they're dying from comorbidities. For instance, that guy we saw getting eaten on the way into work today clearly died from blood loss, not infection, plus he already had a heart condition. People with preexisting conditions are just going to have to take care of themselves. Say it with me, "They're all already dead to me." See, that feels a lot better now doesn't it?

Good because you still have to go to work. No we're not paying you extra. Yes we're doubling grocery prices. No you don't qualify for disability. Or healthcare. Or a home.

Look, if you get bitten, you can stay home for one day, I guess 😒, but then you need to come in early. We're really short staffed at the moment, despite our company's profits being higher than ever. In fact we may be laying some of you off next month. You don't mind working off the clock right?

Also you look silly with that protective gear. We're gonna harass you for it, not like institutionally but just socially. Who cares if a zombie attacks you? Who cares if we invite them into the building? You don't need to defend yourself, you're just overreacting. If you get bitten just tell everyone the festering bite mark is from a different animal, that's what we all do.

And hey, don't worry so much. It's endemic, which means we don't have to keep track of how many people are dying from it anymore. Just look at those numbers! It's only killed 2,000 people in America this week! That's basically nobody! We're back to normal!

If everything starts tasting like rotting meat for the rest of your life, it's probably something else. If you experience brain fog or you forget things constantly or you're tired all the time after even minor physical activity, it's just because you're lazy. Yes every other virus you ever get will also be increasingly worse but that's just a coincidence. Those viruses just happen to be exponentially worse now.

Plus, those few weeks during the lockdown were terrible for my mental health. I just can't keep living like that, so we have to go back to normal life, which now involves people biting each other and twitching uncontrollably and rotting visibly.

You can't expect the world to wait for you. "Already dead to me," remember?
