#i NEVER make blonde characters

[chikaoofka]

helloooo you rbd the "ask me about my ocs" post from me so i am here to ask you abt them (even if you said youre not good at answering them. 😔🤝😔)

i would like to know... anything! about ur ocs :] but i know from experience vauge questions r hard to answer so maybe some trivia? like, howd you choose their names or designs. thatd be cool doesnt have to be the sol ones either !! or i think ur sol ones are also repurposed ones? so their original forms would be cool too. either way i would find it interesting :D

you are so nice to me

AND YOU KNOW ACTUALLY? NAMES & DESIGNS I WAS THINKING TO MYSELF JUST NOW "OH THEY AREN'T THAT INTERESTING" THEN I REMEMBERED NO? THEY BOTH HAVE NAME-AND-DESIGN STORIES? that I find funny anyway........

also i realise how long this is IM PUTTING IT UNDER A READ MORE.

the readmore fucking MOVED?

& ONLY cassius was repurposed . though like before SoL he was . essentially nothing . rotting in my beloveds toyhouse-folder w TWO images (NOW HE'S GOT THE MOST IN MY TH AT... 40...) because I didnt know what to do with him (and it's like... i don't wanna move him out D:) & then i made him in SoL and i think a neuron fired or something idk what happend . the moment I drew him w short hair it all went downhill i think . Anyway, so original cassius, he's named after (coughs) Cassius by Foals . I SAY THIS EVERY OTHER DAY I FEEL "LISTEN TO CASSIUS BY FOALS" (LINKED, THIS TIME.) BUT HE CAME ABOUT COS I SAW A TEMPT6T VIDEO WITH UHH

SOMEONE AS THE GEN 4 GUITARIST. AND FOR DAYS I WAS IN A STATE OF LIKE... ILLNESS? "I NEED TO NAME SOME OC CASSIUS" (....) "I WANNA MAKE THAT GUY AN OC" (....) oh mon dieu now there's a blonde guy in my brain . what the fuck . what the hell? who let him in dude dude dude dude what the hell . tangent but he even was in a band. at first. cos of course he was . a band, fun fact, based on AN OLD POKEMON BAND I HAD . WHICH I HADN'T TOUCHED IN YEARS . BUT cassius was based (i say based loosely) on a shiny minccinno/cincinno named "S I N" so that's fun & the bassist (i.e.) the only other one i . sketched (half-finished?) . i wanna say "oh haha he looks like alfie but with glasses on" but he doesn't . not at all ??? he would have had the same colour hair though. so that's like... the exact same character then

see. him? i wanted to put him here he hasn't seen the light of day in months . ok . where was i . oh yeah this was dropped pretty quickly cos i didnt know what to do with them LOL. now long-haired cassius has been repurposed AGAIN to be cassius' older brother in........the loathingverse! which is cool :-)

& even like i tried so hard to make him fit with the song back when but it NEVER worked and then he gets LOATHING'D AND NOW HE FITS? what the hell man

.

also alfie. alfie oh my god alfie can i say? can i start? do not look at me strangely for this but

this was who he was based on. alfie from fucking blue y . i dont know how i found him nor why i wanted to make a character named alfie because of it but i did AND i needed a name for my achievement hunter (which i portmanteaued, horribly, into his last name) save file(s). So alfie achivunter it was.......... and AND THIS IS WHY HE'S LIKE. THE "DOG GUY". and thats why he looked like THIS at one point :

but i was making his ref & i was like. dear lord this looks atrocious . so im pretty sure i colourpicked from like . ron inside job or something (i distinctly remember being like "this sucks" "what if i made him look like ron instead" & i did) instead and now he looks NORMAL except NOW HE LOOKS LIKE CONNOR SCP CONTAINMENT AND RON INSIDE JOB???? like okay i feel mental every time i say this but like come ON . COME ON?

the Exact Same Man. ok???? i feel like a detective gone mental pointing to a board with red threads and photos like DON'T YOU SEE? IT'S ALL CONNECTED!!! THEY LOOK THE FUCKING SAME!!!!!!! THESE THREE LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh and fun fact alfie is short for alfred he really cannot win . have i said this before? i probably have

& one last thing I guess

these little dots beneath the eyes . it basically means he's got a little evil in him OR really, IMPOSSIBLE TO GET FORESHADOWING. unless you .... know...... the cosmosdex??? yeah. i thought itd fit AND right beneath ALL OF MY OTHER INSANITY. WITH AN ACTUAL LITTLE TRIVIA POINT? HUUUUM. OKAY?

#im normal #i dont know how i did this #i mean i do know. i . I WILL ADMIT #IVE WANTED TO TALK ABOUT THEIR DESIGNS FOR SO LONG. #BUT IT'S LIKE #OH #HOW WOULD I GO ABOUT THAT? #AND THEN I WENT ON THE TANGENT OF A FUCKING LIFETIME. TWICE. #though ive got like. so many repurposed-for-loathing ocs i think #at least 3 ... #i never talk about like . a whole lot of my ocs . only cassius & alfie & charlie sometimes #& charlie doesnt really HAVE a design story i just kinda made him #sorryyyyy for like delivering a pipebomb here #pipebomb of a response right to your notifications #really not keeping my word here #'im bad at answering questions' i swear i usually am #funnist thing about cassius is like. if it werent for the offhand spotting of the sprite once he wouldn't be blonde #i NEVER make blonde characters #theyre always like alfie's hair colour or like. black #OR GINGER? I GUESS? #hes my one blonde guy. hes so weird #i mean ok not including his family I DONT THINK THEY REALLY COUNT? ANYWAY? OF *COURSE* THEYRE BLONDE #anyway #ikea customer service #cyikess #sooooooorrryyyy i went on too long. oooooops #also extra sorry this might actually be unintelligible #this better not show up in any extra tags i will explode . #cassius mode #alfie mode

HE CAN DO BOTH

#redacted asmr #redacted audio #redactedverse #art #illustration #redacted blake #yandere #i can never draw blake right but i think i've nailed it this time #a lot of very talented and edible (affectionate) artists draw blake as a tall dark n handsome fellow #and i'm here for it #but my take on this asshole is that he's a wolf in sheep's clothing right #because he's still a childhood (teenhood?) friend #and a massive dork #i find it super fun to make friendly characters look intimidating rather than the other way around #dont get me wrong who doesn't love an i can fix him #imo blake is a good (*) person who has been broken into enough pieces to start doing very bad things #if he wasn't a nutcase he would be such a golden retriever #hence the blond #it's cute #HE'S cute

[connabeth]

I agree on most of your criticisms of the show but please tell me you're not one of those 'annabeth is supposed to be white and blonde' type of 'critics'.

babygirl are you new here🧍🏾‍♀️

#pjo tv show #percy jackson #pjo #asks #anon #u will never catch me fighting tooth and nail for more blondes on my screen😭 #i couldn’t care less what annabeth looks like or how people perceive her but i’m glad she’s Black in the show #they’ve just butchered her character by making her a lot more one dimensional than she is in the books #and ik leah is capable of the silly!!

#Yes her necklace is an arrowhead #Uhm.

One of my favourite characters of all time (tho I’m slightly biased being hyper fixated rn and what not but sti #I love myself my autistic redheads (/strawberry blondes) what can I say #This was initially a doodle I made in school and then I drew it digitally and then it derailed from there #We’ll see how long this obsession lasts #teen wolf #lydia martin #teen wolf fanart #teen wolf art #teen wolf season 6 #pzyii arts

society if anyone* cared about or admired or had interest in or emotional generosity toward ANY of the other characters on gilmore girls even a fraction as much as jess mariano:

(insert that futuristic utopia picture here)

*except me, god dammit

#the force in the universe that is jess stanning was genuinely put on this earth to challenge me specifically #the lord is testing me!!!!! #(this is because i just saw that gifset of the blonde singer lady talking about gilmore girls. I DON'T AGREE WITH YOUR TAKES MADAM!!!) #dollsome's deep thoughts #the rant that exists inside me about this reaches heights of such deranged fury that i can never unleash it #anti jess mariano #(i mean not really he's fine #i like him just fine as a character #luke loves him and that's enough to make me invested forever #i just don't like how it's so common to consider him so above rory and so much more worthy of interest than anyone else on the show)

i guess that anger really suits you. isn't that sad?

The way Kaveh gets excited about finding treasure chests, the way he whines about forgetting an umbrella, the way he talks about how it's good to get outside and get some air, the way he's reserved at first in the teapot and then gets so excited about how you've laid everything out ooguhgohug 💕

#toast talks #genshin impacted #I love him your honor #He literally came on the first wish he was WAITING for me #I hate that there's a line where you can tell him that you hate his work like why the fuck would I say that to him #Why are all of the interaction with the Sumeru characters so shitty I hate it #BAIZHU IS HERE TOO AND I LOVE HIM SO MUCH I FEEL SO BAD WHENEVER I MAKE HIM RUN #Put him in the teapot and he apologized for being a hassle. Baby you will never be a hassle to me #However I unfortunately have blonde boy priorities which is why Kaveh has the better artifacts but still hits like wet cardboard #Unless he's doing bloom damage. Then he's a second bomb next to Nahida

[sunnibits]

okay we’ve all asked and answered the question of “what traits do you always give your ocs” but how about what traits can you literally never bring yourself to give ocs. for me I can never make an oc that cares about sports I just can’t do it.

#I also Never Ever make blonde ocs unless they’re very pale white blonde #I just cant make a dirty blonde blue eyed character I can’t. sorry to blonde people but it genuinely pains me I can’t do it #anyways pls give ur answer in the tags!!!

rant incoming lol ive been broken emotionally. this goes out to anyone who feels like theyre living in the twilight zone rn like i do

#i hate the wednesday show lol i cant take it anymore #jenna ortegas performance is the only thing getting me through this #i cant believe how much praise this is getting its actually breaking my brain #nothing about this is giving addams family.... #you could literally change them out for new characters and it wouldnt make a difference #im watching wednesday on a date watching legally blonde i REALLY cant take this anymore #cant believe they put wednesday in an environment where she isnt an outcast #even tho the show keeps TELLING me shes still an outcast #put her back in the prep school in conservative middle america that is where the addams family was designed to THRIVE #and every character is so boooorrrriiinnnnggg #except for bianca kind of she has potential #every time they try to do some kind of reference to the movies im just like 'dang wish i was watching that instead rn dont remind me' #AND i cant believe they really gave wednesday the 'ugh im a teen and i hate my mom' trait #the whole POINT of the addams family is that they are the antitheses of the average nuclear family #so why give her this extremely common teenage girl trait #this show is fine if you have never had any exposure to the addams family or just straight up didnt like the addams family #bc its not the addams family #the family isnt even there!!! #thats the worst part for me :( #why not have a B plot back at the addams mansion? #instead of all these bland boring characters i can hardly remember the names of #and her love interests SUCK!!! THEY SUCK!!! the Only character it makes sense for her to befriend is eugene #and they put him in the hospital almost immediately #rant over do not defend this show to me #u can enjoy it or whatever but i cant do it anymore #her dress was pretty tho. and fester was ok #also morticia and gomez have zero chemistry which is a crime #their younger counterparts had more chemistry and their acting was weak so that says a lot #sorry i was raised on the 60s show and the 90s movies i tried to be fair but this is Some Shit my dude.. its giving CW #it speaks

like it’s so simple. the most important thing about annabeth is not her blonde hair. the most important thing about her is the internal journey she goes through: her overcoming her fear of being abandoned, her finding her ‘something permanent’ in the family she finds in her friends and loved ones, and as it relates to her appearance specifically learning that other people’s opinions of her and her intelligence aren’t actually representative of her actual capabilities but also proving to everyone she is capable even when no one believed her so

in the books her blonde hair was the reason ppl didn’t take her as seriously. but it wasn’t about the blonde hair, it was about how it made her feel and how it related to her character. that is what you should care about. and if you understand that then you should be happy she is going to be played by a black girl, as black girls deal with the issue of not being heard and not being seen as capable much more frequently than any white girl, blonde or not, deals with that. her being black makes sense, it makes her more interesting and compelling, it will make her easier for a wider audience to relate to her. in truth her being black is much more conducive to the internal journey she goes through than her being white, seen as black girls are so unfairly treated overall but specifically in academia.

so, if you care so much for annabeth as a character as she is in the books as you claim to then you should be glad her screen counterpart is going to portray her internal and external struggle so well and in such a nuanced way. her hair color is the last thing you should be thinking about. it literally doesn’t matter. it’s not going to ruin her, it’s not going to be any detriment to her character, in fact it is enriching her character. it’s making her a better character. that is what u should care about. if all you care about is her being white and blonde you are literally just racist idk what to tell u. that is not and was never what annabeth’s character is about

#if you are able to love her only if she is blonde u don’t really care about her character do u #she could be fuckin bald for all i care. that is not why i like her #if you can’t see that her being black makes sense #makes her better #and is a huge improvement to her character #if that doesn’t make you elated #guess what! you don’t like her. you never did. you don’t get her and you are a racist #end of story

[linalilia]

typing this so that i won't forget it bc. this is wild

so uh. i really am feeling really sick rn and i almost passed out so i had to force myself to go to sleep and i slept for like two hours and woke up but had like one of the weirdest dreams ever

long story short i was inside my brain and my brain was portrayed as this huge building with many different floors and each floor represented a certain thought of mine or a certain need/desire and before i got to explore them, i had to ask some people to come with me and they were already waiting for me and i don't remember this part clearly but i remember mizuki from pjsk being there and i think yuno was there too and when i asked "why are you all here" they replied with "what do you mean? we are all a part of you". i don't remember exploring the floors that well but what i do remember is that when we were done, they all left, but i saw this really pretty blonde woman walk out of the elevator and she caught me staring at her, laughed and went "well, i represent a certain part of you too", noticed that i'm feeling cold, gave me her coat, kissed me on the cheek and left

girl is this all some kind of sign from the universe

#im so sorry if none of this makes sense it's very hard for me to type rn dfjfhjlk #but the fact that i remembered the blonde woman part and not the “exploring my brain” part. yeah very in character for me #did my brain just kinassign me mizuki and yuno 😭 though tbh i feel like i know why they were there #lina talks about stuff #okay im going back to sleep #also this is so funny. the woman from my dream made me feel so loved and cared for but i woke up and went #“is this a sign from god that if i want my anxiety to leave i just need to get bitches” #also fun fact. i never see myself in my dreams i see everything from my pov but in this dream i finally could see myself #i feel like it means something

btw of the Discworld books I've been reading over the last couple weeks, by far my favorite is Men at Arms and the reason is 50% there's really excellent writing, and 50% HOLY SHIT ANGUA AND CARROT ARE SO GOOD TOGETHER

#I haven't used this term much recently but I have no choice... #Angua and Carrot are OTP #I remember really rooting for them when I read Discworld books back in high school #and my opinion if anything is stronger now that I am wiser and more worldly and also less oblivious #also uhhhhh looking back I know why I latched onto Angua back then #she is a kickass blonde werewolf with a troubled backstory and hot DAMN does that make feel lesbian feelings #why is it I never see posts about Angua and/or Carrot on my dash #sure I don't follow any Discworld blogs but every now and then I see Discworld posts #and they're almost always about Moist and I don't think I read the books he's in bc I do not recall him At All #(then again I forgot Vimes was the protag of the Night Watch books so maybe I did read the books featuring Moist) #I also don't see NEARLY enough posts about trans icon Cheery Littlebottom HELLO??? #who is one of the few characters I recalled but not as much as Angua and Carrot #bc again Carrot and Angua are my fave. to the point I remembered actual quotes from the books ft. them #anyways this has been ''speechie reminisces about Discworld'' time to go back to whatever I was doing before #speecher speaks

#tm #thinking several things. none of them coherent. #it's wild that this season starts with her stance pretty much being 'i'm the actual cop here. i can handle the danger. (i'll protect you)' #(and that continues here obviously) and then the season ends w/ (...*part one of the finale has) her in the most danger she's been in so fa #kind of similar to 6.01 where she insists on dealing with red john like any other suspect and then she gets into 'the most danger she's...' #and it's not so much that she's being....punished by the narrative for thinking/dealing with things in that way #(although there are shades of that i guess you could kind of read it that way too) #it's just red john is NOT like any other suspect he's not even like the worst suspects she's dealt with he's just on a different level #also wild that her version of fixing this is at great (professional and personal really) loss to herself #they said 'never forget; lisbon is an eldest sibling (eldest daughter at that) #idk it hurts to see her do it and take the punishment so naturally but i do appreciate that they never let you forget how #that informs her as a character that's great for me personally #meanwhile that little blonde moron (affectionate) is over there again like 'i don't want you in danger' 'i don't want lose you' #he's EXHAUSTING but ON THE OTHER HAND this makes me crazy too because like #he's the civilian here and he KNOWS he's the civilian and the show makes sure YOU know HE knows #he is not a 'stay in the car' [immediately leaves the car to come help in the fight] kind of civilian #(like he IS but not in this way...you get it) #he runs away from fights; he shrinks and cowers when threatened/seeing a weapon; he still gags and uses a hanky at some bodies #like he's just a GUY and he fully embraces that and yet STILL #his first instinct - demonstrated most physically in the s1 finale and....most of s7 but verbally/emotionally throughout #is to protect her; in whatever way he can #and most times that's lying to her; keeping secrets; going off and doing stupid shit; putting himself at risk without telling her anything #but that's ok in his book (....maybe not ok but it's better) #him hurting her is one thing; it's something he might be able to come back from; he can work towards her forgiving him #(even if he does a piss poor job of it sometimes alskdj) #but her getting hurt because of him is not something he can fix; it's something neither of them might come back from #and no matter how strong and capable and smart (and amazing and pretty we get it you're in love with her) he thinks she is #he can't risk her getting hurt....so sometimes he hurts her instead #just kind of....spiraling over them. doing great. clearly.
