#homestuck #vriska serket #terezi pyrope #vriska #terezi #vrisrezi #mic_art #screencap redraw of that one utena scene woohoo #vrisrezi and utenanthy dont share many similarities but there are some interesting parallels that can be drawn #like theyre all characters who are devoted to the respective roles they think they have #utena needs to be a prince and vriska needs to be a hero #terezi needs to cast vriska as the villain so that she can be the one to bring her to justice while anthy #is resigned to her role as the rose bride and is cast as a witch by others (and herself in a way...) to justify her suffering #im too tired to put into words all the other shit rattlign around in my brain but something something vriska society violence princes utena #something interesting to note is that in the rgu stabbing scene utena is walking to the left while is hs vriskas walking to the right #which i think is mostly a cultural difference due to english being read left to right while japanese is read right to left #changing which direction is percieved as forward #which could be read further into but could also just be the natural flow of the scene or whateevr #idk i need to peruse ohtori.nu again i looooove reading utena essays

Ryuji is so anxious in the beginning of the game :( hes so caught up in his head during the kamoshida arc; makes me think hes been like that for awhile, at least until u get a bit further in the game. The rumors, the self loathing, the whole stint w kamoshida; hes got too much on his brain and its kinda nice (and a little sad) that he starts sharing those anxieties and doubts the second hes in a safe space to do so.

#chattin #ryuji #hes definitely more relaxed by the madarame arc #like he got friends and a purpose and he just bounced back immediately #but i am thinking of like. the year everything went to shit for him #like it wasnt his fault but also hes the center of all the controversy #and he went from being very popular (im SURE he was; hes called a track STAR) #to being completely alone w failing grades and a broken leg. like he had alot of time to sit and think #and all the stuff w his home life being so disruptive #like despite what the school body will say he does think before he acts #he had a grown man rile him up to make him act; he didnt just go in guns blazin #i dunno where im going w this lol. i just think he gets alot of flak for being loud and annoying #but just like w everyone else; u get to see their real personality when theyre supported and loved #and ryuji is just loud and brash and he loves w his whole heart #just like ann became super vocal and silly about so many things after u help her w shiho #All the thieves are like this. ryuji is a ball of anxiety #but its quieted down when he has real support and purpose in his life again #and its less that hes ‘quiet’ about his worries; if anything hes more vocal about it #but bc hes so vocal about it; u can see the difference between him messaging u every day worrying about kamoshida #to him going w the flow and putting more trust in u and the team #he loves them sm !!!!

Junko's the Ultimate Analyst, right? So if she analyzes someone's Talent, then she can reproduce it.

Which means - like with Sakura or Akane - she could learn some sick fighting moves.

But Junko is still a scrawy ass starving model (reference: she's 5'7" and 97lbs; that girl is starving and has no muscle), so she can mimic all of the techniques but she does not have the muscle memory to keep it up and she will wear out pretty quickly. If Junko doesn't win within, what, the first five minutes? ten minutes? she's out.

(Fighting Junko is like fighting Sans. It's an endurance thing. She will wear herself out. Eventually. And then you bop her on the head and keep going.)

#musings #danganronpa #junko enoshima #dr0 #- referenced because ryoko is able to avoid attacks from the madarai #that is a thing she is able to do #but it's not something she would be able to keep up indefinitely #and she still needs mukuro to show up when there are a lot of them to beat them up for her #give junko a cerebral talent and she's ALL over it #but physical stuff? #girl's got a problem #(and i think the thing about junko analyzing talent is that #she's /mimicking/ it #that doesn't mean she necessarily understands it #(see: alter ego and alter ego junko and how she can't successfully kill ai at all ever) #she understands the flow of things enough to predict #based on the data she has #and the more data she has the better she can predict #but that's /different/)

summerrr........ its not over in my heart...... (says this every year)

#octopath traveler 2 #octopath traveler ii #satsuhart #temehika #u can tell im a hot weather person cuz i dont think ive ever complained abt the weather on twitter during summer #meanwhile when its winter i DONT shut up #like i dont disagree that its hot. but its. better than the alternative for me #and i grew up in SEAsia so dont @ me #anyway i know theres a literal river flowing through ku but i dont think hikari would know how to swim #like it doesnt seem like an essential skill in the desert. for obvious reasons #and even so the ocean is like a whole different experience #i want to draw like a proper summer pic but oouuahg summer months passed me by... #also i was thinking abt the ending illust where castti is like smiling at hikari while he eats some berries she picked #its so...........mom looking at her kids eating well and being happy kind of thing #so yeah i think she'd murder watermelons for him #octo2

Hi! I really like Starstruck! I was wondering if I could enter my Kirby OC Peony into the Shipaganza thing? She would absolutely love Starstruck, she is a Floralian adult approaching 30, it doesn’t let me ask on my other blog where all her references and info are but I could definitely send them if you’d be up for it considering her! I absolutely adore Starstruck, she’s so kyoot and bubbly and gah!

hi there, thank you so much!! you sure can; just submit a link to her reference and a prompt on what you think they'd be like together! i've never drawn a floralian before so that's exciting, and as a bonus peony's are my personal favourite flower!!

also you might not need this in particular but because some folks are struggling a little with prompts (especially ship ones, which is the premise of the month) some ideas could be: how do they Catch The Feelings, or what might they do on a 'date'!

#i am also going to suggest that in 99% of circumstances it is PROBABLY the other character/oc who would have to guide the date #just because starstruck is pretty dense. like...very friendly!! yes!! she'll go “out” with you! absolutely!! she likes to be out!! #but she might not intuit the difference between a date and a normal outing and i think she's not great at plans. goes with the flow. #at the end of the month maybe i should draw the repercussions of her accidentally agreeing to date like a dozen people #asks

I am not typically interested in making up new characters for existing media properties, but I am very attached to Persephone, the mother program for the Hermes relay station that the group chat made up.

She got collared while the rest of the crew got bolted, and when the survivors swing by the Hermes to make sure there's not anything or anyone salvageable left behind, they're greeted by an oddly vacant, chipper AI program who's happy to help - until she sees Miranda and loses her goddamn mind.

#Hera stuck on the Urania watching the crew get held hostage by a DIFFERENT murderous AI: #hey no fair. only I get to do that #Lovelace as Percy threatens to blow the engines and explode them all: tell me the truth was I this bad #Jacobi: AI was a mistake. ow OW Minkowski not the ear AGAIN #Minkowski: YOU LITERALLY DID THIS SAME THING #continuing the theme of ai comms officer solidarity Percy and Officer Jordan were besties #entertained themselves with all the gossip flowing through the relay station #they have ALSO heard the toothpaste tape #Doug: hey what's happening? #Percy briefly distracted from her murderous rage: is that the fucking toothpaste guy #wolf 359 #perpetual perpetual ladies night

isn't it interesting which characters/ocs you fixate on based on what you're going through...

#spent the past month obsessed with daphne + persephone #if u couldn't tell lmfao #but yeah with IF the brainrot ebbs and flows for me #so when i become re-fixated it's usually for some reason... #with persephone i'm really interested in the way she balances extreme emotions with joy #she's sensitive and in tune with her emotions but obviously starts the story in painful/angering circumstances #so the way she allows herself to feel the full range of her emotions without shame has been on my mind #+ springtime being a balance of storm and sun etc etc #and w daphne it's the way she's constantly deflecting #she's so so vulnerable all the time #like mentally vulnerable and she can't control it #and so like what do you do when being vulnerable has to be part of life but it's so uncomfortable #anyway rambling now #just like how we find different things interesting ab chars and ocs depending on what we're thinking about #lush.talk

People will often say, 'If you could be with Lincoln for dinner, what would you want to ask him? What would be the unanswered question?' And I know I should be asking him, 'OK, suppose you had not been killed, how would you have dealt with the South? How would you have dealt with Reconstruction and all the controversies that arose?' But I know that if I really had him for dinner one night, I would simply ask him, 'Tell me a story, Mr. Lincoln.' Because then I would see him coming alive. He laughed so hard when he told one of his funny stories, his eyes would twinkle. And then I'd know that the Lincoln I knew -- who was somehow able in the worst days of the war to dispel the anxiety of his Cabinet members by his humor and his life-affirming sense of storytelling -- then I’d know I would have seen him alive.

-Doris Kearns Goodwin, Presidential Episode 16

This was where I had to stop the Lincoln episode at the end of my commute, and as I pulled into the parking lot I said to myself, "Wow, that's lovely." A little schmaltzy, perhaps, but I think it gets to the core of why people study history. Sure, there's the intellectual impulse to analyze and understand events with the benefit of hindsight, but deep down, the heart of historical study is a desire to connect with people. To bridge the gulf of time and space and get to know people despite the fact that they lived in a completely different century.

History's not just dry lists of dates and names and theories. It's people. It's personalities. It's quirks and memories and stories. It's knowing that a historical figure isn't just a face on a monument, or a source of information, but a guy who can tell really funny stories. And I wanted to share this quote because it really understands the humanity of history in a way I rarely see expressed.

#history is awesome #presidential talk #i had this woman's lincoln book rented on libby #cuz the library happened to have it and i thought i recognized her name from podcast ep descriptions #with no real intention of ever listening to it but now i may just have to give it a try #it's crazy how i keep thinking 'this era of history's so interesting i don't think i want to move forward in the podcast' #but then i hit the next ep and it fires me up to find out what's next #i thought the lincoln ep would be relatively boring but they take an interesting angle with it #and after all the buildup to pre-civil-war #i'm now desperate to see how they can possibly build things back up now that they finally broke apart #look at me treating american history as if it's a tv show #(of course i know the broad outlines but i'm specifically not refreshing my memory on later details to avoid 'spoilers') #anyway i didn't want to make the main point of the post about catholic things #but i do want to mention here in the tags that this approach to history #is one of the greatest proofs we have of the communion of saints #we have a drive to connect with each other despite coming from different times #we are timeless beings caught up in the flow of time #enough rambles time to post

Nina and I are unfortunately like dynamite and gunpowder. something happens and we’re just like oh yeah? You wanna go? Let’s go! Meet me in the ring bitch!

#part of our power is the insane SPEED and then reconciliation of our fights #we forgive and communicate as fast as we fight #but there is no one in the world who makes me just SAY the shit I shouldn’t say than her #like she just. she herself is so fast and so blunt and so ruthless and so bullying and so LOUD #that it fires me right up and it’s like okay well FINE the gloves are off #but then it makes me anxious after like. did I say something TOO hurtful #Nina and I always joke we have the RANGE #because for all of my we’re the struggling married couple of sisters #we also have times where the fun and exchange of ideas is flowing #and this ability to say and hear things to/from each other that most people don’t/can’t? #like. the level of rock-solid trust is SO high. but equally high is our wildly differing personalities and worldview #so there isn’t anything quite like it and it can be confusing from the outside #like I HAVE to meet her in the parking lot because she’ll be being the WORST #but also she thinks I am being the worst #but anyway I do hate when a fight seems like NEW territory #and then I always worry that I have done irreversible damage #I can hear Nina in my head mocking that very idea because she is so tough #and mocking the anxiety of me being like nothing can ever be okay again #but life and certain subjects have been traumatizing in the past year #so idk what is safe exactly right now #I am FULLY rambling and having a million thoughts at once #but yeah #SORRY FOR SWEARING #twice

"Don't even try to get up" || "Watch me!" *stumbles and falls on the ground*

(this one is too funny not to send!)

"Rowan, lay back down, you're sick and need your rest," Papa scolded.

"I can stand up just fine!" She stood up on the bed, got woozy, then collapsed down into her pillows.

Papa sighed and brought a steaming mug over to her. "You need rest. Your mama is getting more medicine so you won't be so dizzy."

"Why does dizzy feel like it's in my ears?" Rowan grumbled.

"Because it is. Your humours are out of balance, and the kind in your ears are effected by the kind in your eyes and nose."

"That's gross!"

"That's life, little tree," Papa stroked her hair. "Try breathing in the steam through your nose."

Rowan did as she was bid and felt a little better. Enough that she wanted to stand and play again.

"Will you lie still if I tell you a secret about dragons?" Papa asked.

Eyes wide, Rowan grabbed her stuffed blue rabbit and nodded. Papa never liked to talk about his time as a dragoon, even if he did train her and Ellant how to use a spear.

"One of the main ways that we dealt with dragons was to make sure they couldn't fly. Sometimes that was slicing up their wings so they couldn't flap them, or their legs so they couldn't launch. Or -" he gave Rowan a conspiratorial look, "it was to affect their balance."

"How'd you do that?"

"Many times, a dragoon would strike at the base of their tails. It was safer to do that many times, but if you didn't get through the dragon's hide, it didn't do much," Papa said. "If you had a good archer, however, you could trust them to shoot at the dragon's ears and eyes."

"But those are small targets!" Rowan said, "And dragons move, don't they?"

Papa nodded gravely. "They move so much, little tree. But one good arrow in the eye or ear of a dragon could spell the end of them, if it didn't kill them outright."

"Because they were blind and dizzy?"

"Aye, even if it's just a dizzy dragon it makes it so much easier to slay. So that's why we want you to stay still and regain your balance, dear."

Rowan pouted. "But I'm not fighting dragons."

"No, you're not. And I pray you never do, but fate oft works against my wishes. But if you hurt your balance now and have to fight a dragon, I don't want you to die because you're dizzy, do you hear me?"

She nodded. "Aye, Papa."

"That's a good girl. You can read if you'd like, but you need to lie down for a while."

Rowan nodded again. "Can you get me a book?"

Papa smiled. "Is there one you'd particularly like to read, little tree?"

"Can you get me the one from Sharlyan?"

"Of course."

Thanks for the prompt!

sometimes you get diagnosed with ADHD as an adult which finally makes your mom actually listen to what ADHD actually is and that she didn't cure it by making me do 100 jumping jacks as a kid when I got too hyper and then she realizes that she may have it too

And then you both realize that like 70% of the family probably also has adhd and that's why we are all Like That

#adhd #not art #like???? my moms side of the family were always weird to everyone but us #so informal and go with the flow and peppy but cycle through hobbies like toilet paper #never any drama bc we forget that we got mad and just get over it and were generally nice to people #we never learned to set boundaries with other people bc we all had invisible understood nd boundaries #and just didnt ask each other weird questions #like turns out we r just a super nd family???? but it makes sense??? #my 2 cousins were diagnosed as kids but they were the only ones that was when adhd was starting to be understood as a childhood disability #but you only got diagnosed if u were getting bad grades etc so me and my sister got overlooked and everyone else was too old #but DEF my granny has combined like me and my mom has hyperactive type and probably my uncle as well #and my great aunt bipolar i wouldnt be surprised if she had comorbidities her daughter idk tho #great grandparents hard to say but i wouldn't be surprised and time will tell with cousins kids #would not be surprised to see some autism in there im sure my sis on the spectrum and i may be too but with adhd its hard to differentiate #anyway this is a v personal post but its kinda crazy to look back and be like huh #thats why the fam dynamic is so different from everyone elses #we dont talk to each other for years but relationships dont deteriorate in our heads so nbd #now my dads side....my dad does have a lot of adhd symptoms as well as his dad #plus Alzheimers runs thru there which has a slight predilection for adhd anyway #why would a bunch of intelligent chatty anxious and kind people choose to live in the middle of nowhere and have silly hobbies #why neurodivergency my friend #ANYWAY the culture shock of moving away from that as a child and my parents remarrying neurotypicals who didnt understand the dynamics #dunno if it was the southern thing or the nt thing but turns out the normal way i always interacted with my parents #was seen by others as deeply disrepectful mean teenager nonsense that should be culled #shout out to the nd kids with nd parents who just spoke to each other like adults and played with each other like kids #this is TOO MANY TAGS thats how u know the vyvanse kicked in #personal

All you need is just some good, fucking music that you headbang to To forget all your problems and what's bothering you So c'mon, raise the volume, it will still feel good Alright, alright, alright ("Good Fucking Music" - Solence)

I think we all know that feeling when you hear a song and immediately imagine all the scenarios in your head? Yeah, this is one of those! I mentioned I wanna do a little bit more with Vince's and Judy's friendship. Because, lesbian-gay-solidarity <3 And me just loving Judy sm in general xD

Like, Judy and Vince are two people that would probably have never met, hadn't it been for Evelyn and the heist, so different their backgrounds and social circles. But what instantly connected them was that they're both nerds for tech-stuff. In some ways, they really mirror each other so nicely, in others they contradict each other, and it's this equilibrium and balance that I really love about their dynamic. Judy gets Vince down from his high horse, making him reconsider some of his views, and Vince looks out for her to not bite off more than she can chew when picking her battles, backing her up. And they have a similar taste in music, too! When you drive with Judy in her van, she's listening to Radio Vexelstrom, and in her apartment Johnny comments on her band posters disapprovingly ("Blergh, Electropunk" or sth like that XD). Both of these are instances of what Vince also enjoys, music-wise. So, while I don't necessarily see Judy as someone who goes out to dance and party much, maybe he did convince her some time to come along to a themed night at a club with some favourite bands of theirs in the playlist. Cause sometimes you just need to dance to some loud angry music with your friends for a couple of hours to forget how shitty everything else is.

Also: Judy's custom clubwear outfit for AMM

I have been formulating a sonic OC for the past few months whomst I've been unable to complete due to my accursed wrist strain acting up, only for Surge to now be given a big jacket much like the one I gave her. Curses. Anyway this is Flow the Porcupine, she exists because I was learning about the differences between pyroclastic flows and pyroclastic surges. She has fire powers and her only personality trait is that she spouts rock facts. I hope you all like her.

#if you're curious while there are several differences between pyroclastic flows and surges #the main one is flows have a high particle:gas ratio and are more laminar as a result #while surges are less particle rich and more turbulent #art #sth #idw sonic #surge the tenrec #kitsunami the fennec #im still not crazy about her design so i might revisit it one day
