a friend who'd wait :)

#im posting this very late because i was sort of weary of how it came out and ended up messing w it until it was like 4am oops. #and i have plans tmrw so... oh well! i did my best and ill put it out while i can! #and i tried to make the scene match barnard's colors lol #finn's ocs #finn's art #i know i said id do more sillay stuff with the simpler screentone only style but i had a couple more of these in me #and this is the first piece im making thats like an actual part of the story too rather than just setting stuff for fun #i wanna write something to go with it too but for now ill just sort of briefly explain the context in the tags here: #barnard has a pretty bad case of OCD and his compulsions have made it difficult to make friends in the past #he was never outright bullied or anything but people just didnt really have the patience to deal with it #he has compulsions that include stuff like walking through doors until it feels right and needing things to be perfectly aligned #which in group settings has lead to people having to wait for him to finish his rituals and join them #they might find it tolerable at first but eventually they grow impatient and hes just... not invited to stuff anymore #but juno is a newer member of the guild who ends up frequenting the same library. hes also kinda a little weird #and they dont become fast friends or anything but just sort of naturally spend time in the same place #though they never plan meetups they eventually fall into a routine. around the same time theyd just both be at the library #and read next to each other. and maybe talk a bit. and eventually they end up walking back to the guildhall together #since theyre going to the same place after all. and juno always waits for barnard outside the door #eventually barnard asks if this bothers him. juno kinda just tells him 'of course it does' without any malice or anything. just a statement #barnard is surprised and apologizes and juno says not to. but the next day juno doesnt show up at the usual time. #barnard assumes hes committed somekinda more by bringing it up. he ends up staying there late reading to get his mind off it & not ruminate #but when he leaves juno is in fact still waiting for him down the hall (see pic) having collected a bunch of books literally abt ocd #he fell asleep bc barnard stayed later than expected. and hes an eepy guy generally. and also one very bad at expressing himself #but now barnard gets that juno's 'of course it [bothers me]' had the implication of 'but its worth it' which no friend has previously done. #and from the interaction juno was also able to understand that this isn't something barnard just does for the hell of it so. he studies. #and checks a bunch of stuff out because he thinks it could help his friend too (theres ocd workbooks and such- i remember working w them) #and thats the point where they became more ''friends'' than ''pleasant library acquaintances'' #from there on they also do get into juno's problems. whole other bag of worms. but this specific scene is more about bernard from his pov #sorry about when i said briefly explain. i lied </3 #but compared to the whole sequence im picturing its brief so shhh

Ethan Peck, grandson of...

...the incomparable Gregory Peck.

#both of these were kind of journeys for me #growing up I only knew GP as Atticus from TKAM and so he was very much Dad (On-Screen Version) in my head #and at some point in the last ten-ish years I went “wait...he's PRETTY?” #(he is. extremely. “devastatingly handsome” indeed.) #and Ethan: I am not...a huge fan either of the Star Trek show(s) he's in or of the way his version of Spock has been written #and at first (long before I watched SNW) I was salty bc I thought he looked nothing like Nimoy (he really doesn't) OR like GP #(which...he definitely does? there is a strong resemblance?? lol I don't have eyeballs ig) #anyway: in SNW he has a MUCH better hairstyle than the utterly abysmal things they were doing with his hair and facial hair in Discovery #and he won me over with his charm and his gorgeous smile and his adorable collection of Trek shirts #also he strips in his second scene in SNW which helped lol #so...here I am: crushing on Peck men

Whats your process for coming up with food ideas?

Being hungry all the time, mostly.

Inspiration comes from a lot of things, tunnelbuns are actually based on miner pasties because I wanted to adapt a culturally relevant dish from the area. Other times I just think about the sorts of materials they have, and what I would like to eat it with.

I'm also just a very curious person, so for example, I was once looking at leeches and my brain said, "I wonder if you can eat those."

Some googling later and, yes, you can! Bang that's inspiration for Warrior Bites. APPARENTLY they also become crunchy like a nugget. I'd put them in some butter, add some garlic, fry it up, and dip that in some sweet sauce.

A LOT of my ideas start off as "I wonder if you can eat X" and then going on a trip to Duckduckgo to find out. Most things can be eaten and there's a long history of people eating it. The second question, "can cats eat X", usually only comes up for non-animal foods.

Like mushrooms for example. Cats CAN eat safe varieties of mushrooms AND they can taste it, because fungi have similar proteins to meat, funny enough.

So I guess I should say that my food idea process looks like curiosity. A lot of asking questions and playing around with the answers. I wish I could be quicker with putting Warrior Bites entries out, but I try to only put those out with art.

#I went to England once and I was ASTONISHED by how blackberries just grow everywhere #Like holy mackerel #So here I was #This unstoppable embarrassing American tourist stuffing my face full of blackberries at every chance #Partner trying to hold me back like a dog pulling at a leash #I will eat anything at least once and if I like it you can't stop me from eating it #If I'm not thinking about warriors im thinking about food #I have a massive collection of cookbooks btw #Every time I see a cheap book of recipes I pick it up just to look at the kinds of food I could be eating #So when I read warriors I am thinking about how they should be storing the prey and what they could be cooking #Soups man they could have soooooo many soups #Man I want fish rn #Keep thinking about salmon #Bone babble #Bones gives advice

hi nymph!! :)

🦜 a pretty quote

He didn't mention how it was the only message Nathaniel had sent all week. He didn't mention how Nathaniel hadn't responded to anything Andrew had asked. He didn't mention the way that one word had torn through his chest.

here is a quote from chapter 12 of (why is there) joy in this poison :3 i will die with the rule of three gripped tightly in my hands

🐤 a mystery quote

not technically a quote as much as it is a note, but i am working on a story that will probably be a lot more involved than anything i've ever written before, and this is from my researching/studying for that!

[the poem is from LVOE. by Atticus]

im already very excited to work on this story :)

[ WIP bird game ]

#i have talked about atticus before. i literally have a fic named LVOE. because of this same poetry book skdhfshkdf #the poem on the page adjacent to this one has a note from me that just reads 'wilmon.' #but i LOVE his poems #i also have so many of these sticky notes hanging out in several of my poetry books and that number is only going to grow from here lmao #i AM also looking for poems so i say again: if you have any poems you love please share them with me :) im collecting #anywho #im probably going to try to finish this fic BEFORE i start posting so it'll be a long while before it's ever published #but <3 #it'll likely be a backburner passion project #i also attempted to add alt text for the image so hopefully that turned out ok #(wit)jitp #fun fact! that quote comes from a section that was originally going to be the end of chapter 11 until i decided to be less of an asshole!!! #askers #ask game #nymphoutofwater #shh ac

friends and parents have collectively (but separately) gifted me what can only constitute as a fuck ton of money to buy myself books and i am so excited to go shopping for books this week

#i don’t have a bookshelf but i’m buying one soon #my collection will only grow from here #i won’t have to store them on my closet shelf anymore 😭 #my books

[beesinspades]

I love trigun so much.....i love vash so much.....it just feels so special. it's literally become my muse I've never drawn this much in my entire life I'm just so enamored with it and vash and aaahhh. a few weeks ago a friend told me that it's like vash was made in a lab specifically for me and I mean. yeah. I love him I love him so so much he's literally my dream fictional character it's like I won the fictional character jackpot. he's so so special to me nightow I owe you my life

#and my sanity this year #bee talks #SORRY I JUST!!! FEEL FEELINGS!!!!! #god I don't want this hyperfixation to pass #I can't bear to think of the day I'll see art of him and feel nothing #I hope he's special #I hope he's the one #I hope he's my lugia of humanoid characters #(lugia was my first ever fave fictional character I love them since I was 6 and unlike all my other hyperfixations this one stayed) #(like it's just been in the background my whole life I still collect things about lugia and look forward to lugia things) #(meanwhile doctor who was my biggest hyperfixation it lasted 4-5 years and it was literally my whole life. #but now you couldn't get me to feel a fraction of the excitement I used to feel over it. even with david tennant coming back. I'm excited! #but it's not the same. so yeah I hope trigun and vash are a new lugia. I think they could be. I want them to be.) #anywayyy sorry I'm weird #also re: vash made in a lab for me it's so funny because it's really 100% exclusively about his character #apart from the wings and scars thing it's got nothing to do with his appearance #and it's funny because originally I saw trimax vash after getting into tristamp and I was like 'ugh I don't really like how he looks here' #FOOL!!!!! #now he's my favorite and I draw him the most smh #but yeah peak example of a character's appearance growing on me because he's beautifully written and ticks all my boxes #confession though: I still don't like '98 anime and pre-trimax manga vash's look 😔 I'm a tristamp and trimax only #'98 vash looks great when he's sad though :)

#ooc ;; pterodolphin has no devil fruit #one more thought before i pass the fuck out because this shit lives rent free in my brain #sits here and thinks about how. #the experiments--if they were only to grow a connection with yveltal--could have ended. very. VERY early. #much earlier than how far they went. #there was obviously a shift at some point. from just creating that bond. to almost. duplicating and 'improving' the initial design. #ive mentioned before but silva holds a lot of untapped and unstable potential. that goes beyond the original yveltal. #not only that but since shes started to take life with everytime she sets off--shes collected...a LOT MORE...that what is currently #within the sleeping yveltal. #its just interesting. #maybe one day ill write a post of how the experiments actually worked but to summarize as simply as possible. #also because im still sorta. dojng research on it. #it was a mix of DNA splicing with the slumbering yveltal/yveltal dna. #and also literal connecting of brain waves between the two. #the DNA splicing was initially the *secondary* of the experiments. with the bond being the primary. #which is why silva developed the nightmares/night terrors SO quickly--about half a year into the actual experiments. #the DNA splicing was meant to reinforce and assure there wouldnt be a rejection. it was almost an 'extension' of the mind. #in i BELIEVE either viruses or bacteria; the little endings will resemble/duplicate the body's endings so that it isnt seen as foreign #and thus isnt attacked. #thats basically what the splicing was to do. #it was creating an artificial link with the added reinforcement of at first JUST making...a slightly closer bond via sort of 'becoming' it. #this. this moved pretty quickly into a shift of the bond being secondary because it was discogered pretty fast that. hey!! #the connection was easily made. how to make it stronger? #well theres only one yveltal. making another is like making an 'extension' of the first. #silva is essentially...a very convoluted clone. in a way. #she is turning into a cloned and enhanced yveltal thanks to the dna splicing becoming the FOCUS. #and given how early that was started; it made her body very. very. moldable #it still is extremely moldable. #ANYWAY IM RAMBLING ITS 3 AM #i sleep <3 maybe ill make this stuff into an actual post LMAO i love exploring this shit its fun as fuck

#the kawoshin brainrot is setting in #i don't even know where it's coming from but i blame the rebuild movies not having ever fully left my brain #and the fics! there are so many! SO MANY GOOD ONES! GREAT ONES EVEN! #so here's me adding more sad gay boys to my growing collection

Sorry for my incessant reblogging, I just like showing you things.

Like a child that found a cool rock and held it out to you going "Look! I found a cool rock!" and I need you to see and appreciate what I have to contribute.

#here have my rambles #words i would not have #without the influence of Tumblr #cool rocks #are cool #btw #me and my mom collect them from the beach #and then we bring them home #we have a pile of rocks in our back yard #It's started growing upwards #And making weird noises at night #I think it's becoming sentient #send help

there should be a charitable foundation dedicated to the very good cause of me purchasing stuff that i want

#once again gazing longingly at snowdrops with $30 shipping from the uk #they're prettyyyy and they dont have those varieties here #also just the snowdrops themselves without the shipping is crazy expensive sometimes #like $30+ for one bulb lol #i went njts and spent like a hundred dollars on like four so thats it for the year #but im slowly building a collection #this seems insane and frivolous i know but im trying to get the special blooming time ones #to try to get flowers during the most bleak no snow no flowers times of year lol #and also christmas :) #anyway i made a post like this around this time last year abt orchard trees and i got five for 10 bucks each #which is crazy cheap #they were only little but they'll grow and they were grafted already and everything #anywayyyy #sorry for all the posting im spinning with relief abt my prognosis lol #this has been a shitpost

uhhhhh I think my boyfriend suggested roleplay lol whuh dude??

#(spits out Dr Pepper but slow and steady like) #I was talking about how I was hoping that I'd get recognized by SOMEBODY at the big anime con next year as Otacon now that the collection i #out #cause I'm definitely pulling it out again. it's such a fun/easy cosplay plus I have the right face shape and bedhead. it's like zero effort #it rules #but anyways he was like oh I bet I could find a headband and grow my hair out by then and be Solid Snake #and he is so not into cosplay at all so I was like WHAT! that would be so fun! ok!!! #but he went on and he was like yeah... an eyepatch wouldn't be too bad. I bet they have those at the party store #(which like yeah they do but also I still have one from a Snake Plissken one I did a full ass 10 years ago jfc) #But I was like wait? Big Boss? But Snake? #and without thinking I was like okay wait BB doesn't really make sense with Otacon. Also wearing eyepatches for cosplays fucking sucks big #time and I told him straight up #and he was like well you know... I could just try the eyepatch and get used to it.... maybe #like... kind of saucily (I guess? not going into exact language here tho lol) #and my brain went O_O ??????????????????????? #fellas not to TMI here #but we've been deadbedrooming it for some time now #my brain just short circuited big time #like sir you best not just be stringing words together here. the circuitry and programming would not be able to take it

Blocking out her name and picture to protect her from harassment, but this is a Palestinian journalist reporting out of Gaza who I've personally had contact with through Twitter.

Money and aid is not getting through. Crowdfunding is not helpful. Ordering things is not helpful. Buying keffiyehs that say the money goes to Gaza is not helpful.

Gaza is a concentration camp - nothing is getting in or out that Israel does not approve of and right now Israel wants people dead or dying.

Most of social media, and tumblr is no exception, skews toward "taking action" being things that put you at zero risk and only ask for money or bits of time, or sometimes just doing nothing and calling it a boycott. "Call your rep!" "Buy this thing!" "Share this link!"

The reality is that you get out what you put in and if it was easy and low risk and comfortable for you to do it, then that is the level of impact it is having - low, comfortable to ignore, and flimsy.

Palestine, Gaza and increasingly the West Bank, NEEDS real help and the reality is we do not have the power as individuals to give it.

We DO have the power to band together and influence things collectively and the best way to do that is to loudly unequivocally express our anger and clarity of purpose.

So that does mean calling reps and being polite and firm and brief and giving your real address because otherwise they can't confirm you're a constituent and they'll ignore you. "Hello, my name is ______ and I am calling as a constituent to demand representative/senator _______ support aid to Gaza and to call for an end to support for all support to Israel."

It is important that your support for Gaza include opposition to Israel - there is no supporting Gaza while supporting Israel, it genuinely is one or the other.

Tear down pro-Israel posters. Tear down those fake kidnapped propaganda posters. Show up to rallies and marches where you can and if you can't, find out who's organizing them and get in touch to offer your support and help. Talk to family and friends. LEARN! Read up on these things and teach yourself history so you can better advocate and push back on propaganda.

Be willing to have people not like you. Losing friends over this is, and I don't mean to be cold here, nothing. It doesn't matter. Fuck em. If advocating against genocide costs you friendships and gets people calling you antisemitic, fuck em, good riddance. Privately process the loss of those relationships if they really matter to you, but publicly don't give it air because this is not a time to be focused on the feelings of people who cannot bring themselves to oppose ethnic cleansing.

The culture is shifting, support for Palestine is growing and it NEEDS to continue and we have the power to make sure it does.
