#my dream was weird again

[ravenwolfie97]

hey brain can you stop stressing out about things that aren't even really happening thank you

#my dream was weird again #pretty unusual in the sense that i was driving a lot #i kept having to go back down this one road and make a left into this neighborhood #so that i could get more food stuff #since i was supposed to be leaving for a long while #apparently also at some point i end up communicating with my mom probably on the phone or smth #and it hits me that i had been in a hotel and all of my stuff was still in there. like ALL of it #and it was like 3pm so it was well past checkout time #so then i start freaking out and my mom starts getting mad bc im stupid #and that last-minute stress was what woke me up n prompted this #i just really hate my brain stressing out over things that aren't real. like all the school/college dreams #where i keep like forgetting i have class things right before a deadline and i have been neglecting it and ill be held back #which by the way Never Fucking Happened in real life #i only neglected one class on purpose bc i was depressed as fuck and the only other scenario was the one i did in 2 days post covid #which truth be told was pretty stressful but i was so filled with adrenaline i was not even freaking out i was just Doing #but the hotel thing with leaving halfway before realizing i just kept my shit unpacked and sprawled out #leaving without even checking out or realizing i had nothing at all with me to move back with #nothing of the sort would ever happen in real life. i was so good about stuff like that especially for hotels on the move here #idk im so tired and i do not want to write on my phone anymore im not awake enough to deal w this

okaayyyy first on the list of designnsssss,,, rayman !! yeah incredible , ik ik just. stay with me here

a brief rundown of it is taking that whole "guardian of this world" concept, and being an embodiment of dreams, bravery and light.. then making it into a silly forest spirit,,

some inspos are sky children of the light, over the garden wall, adventure time, and zelda . again , weird mix , i knowwww . but!!!

i would need an entire doc to list all the things i've written on him thus far but i'd love asks/questions (and perhaps suggestions!)

im gonna be real here... most of the changes have to be the fact he has a cape and, messy hair, with flowers/leaves caught in it (ever heard of a brush???)

#rayman #rayman legends #rayman origins #rayman fanart #my wips #traditional art #okay bits of small trivia below! #he has little butterflies that follow him around sometimes; similar to that one scene in steven universe #represent his thoughts and ambitions in a way #halo is optional too i just thought. hey! that ring on his sweater has some sort of mystical significance #so i thought it'd be nice if there was. of course. a small ring of light donned over his head #weird looking angel if you ask me.... ahahaha #he can also shapeshift as he's made of the stuff of dreams; can be a bird. manta ray. any sort of animal to his heart's desire #although he'd look a biiitt different than the rest; sorta stand out. be it from a faint glow. lums or markings #can't believe this is sthe same guy that sang sexbomb and had no arms no legs huge features #then again i consider this like a separate universe/canon from the acc games it's. how do i put this #more of if it went in the direction of fantastical or fantasy elements

[skitskatdacat63]

Roleswap anyone??

Tell me Fernando wouldn't make a fantastic general/emperor, and that Napoleon wouldn't make a fanastic driver/tp!!

#this might be the most mentally ill thing ive drawn yet.... #lmao im like ah this would be a funny idea to draw #and then got WAAYYYYY more into drawing napoleon #to the point of cuteness aggression and sadness that him in f1 isnt real :( #cofi and i made up a whole lore and plot line so if you want a pt 2 of that hmu LMAO #but briefly: hes a driver(2 wdc btw) who got kicked out for smth and then came back as a tp again to torment his former rivals #gahhhhh why is he so cute why isnt he real :( i would stan him so hard you dont understand #with his cute little lesbian bob and introverted but brave and outspoken demeanor.... #his mechanics and team in general are all tall men who love to pick him up #but god the plot is just so fun and compelling that it makes me sad that kinda driver doesnt exist irl #my greatest dream is for someone from the actual napoleon fandom to see this #bcs its weird enough for you guys so i cant even imagine what theyd think #BUT PLEASEEE #anyways. this is a very odd post. but im very proud of it :) #lmao this is just like one step closer to actually writing my proper manifesto about it #but yeah i posted that silly meme the other day and it got way more notes that i expected so maybe this will be appealing too? #girls who cannot draw normal fanart #<- like seriously i wont draw napoleon in his normal clothes and fernando vice versa but no prob with the reverse?? my brain... #f1 #formula 1 #fernando alonso #nandopoleon alonsoparte #napoleon bonaparte #napoleon #catie.art

[solradguy]

We have run like 30 railjack missions and Sevagoth's fat heaving chassis won't drop. I have like 5 Sevagoth systems. Maybe if I hammer them onto one of my 9,000,000,000 Harrow chassis I can transmute it into the part I need to make this man

#textpost #I've been haunted by visions since that dream yesterday #NO ONE DRAWS SEVAGOTH. I've found like maybe 10 drawings of him #And the subreddit/tierlists always have him in 'who's that again?' tier argh!!! #solradguy get into a character that's not some weird side freak challenge 2024 #(sol badguy doesn't count.... but HOS does..... no fucker draws HOS. he's got like 3 official pieces of merch) #Sux I've pigeonholed myself so firmly into Guilty Gear #I could make merch for the little guys that don't get anything otherwise but it'd just confuse my followers if I like #Randomly dropped Sevagoth or Vincent Valentine merch rofl #I don't want to invest in something I'm not confident I'll break even on...

APOCALYPSE SEER TWINS COMIC TIME!

Putting the actually comic under a cut b/c it starts off with a Leo future dream and i want everyone prepared for that.

But yeah! The suggestion came from the replies on This post (thank you @antimattercontainment ! )

Content warning: (specifically for Leo's dream) attempted Krang possession and implied suicide.

so yeah, Donnie is fully aware of how he dies in the apocalypse timeline. He dies pushing CJ out of the way of some Krang goop, getting infected, and then self-destructing his gear before he could fully be possessed. He actually picked this way of dying compared to the original vision Leo saw before the invasion (which was almost the same except he didn't have a self-destruct feature and had to beg Leo to kill him instead.) He didn't want to put that sort of strain on his twin so he decided that, when the time came, he'd take care of it on his own. This was the biggest change the twins had been able to make in their visions (before sending CJ back and thwarting the entire apocalypse.)

edit: fixed the yin-yang symbols so they're actually correct. My bad!

editx2: fixed the symbols again, b/c i had it right the first time. My bad^2 (i cannot keep stuff like this straight. and apparently can't read either so yeah.)

#tmnt #rottmnt #seer twins au #apocalypse timeline #my doodles #rise leonardo #rise donnatello #this is my friday update #i'm trying to get back to friday updates again #we shall see how long that lasts #i had to learn how to draw krang goop for this #i'm actually kind of proud of how the dream sequence turned out #krang goop and all #it just looks kinda cool #in a weird dream-sequence way

History of Detective Pikachu

2013: "Too bad this game is never going to be finished"

2016: "Too bad this game is never going to get an English translation"

2018: "Oh my god, they actually released it outside of Japan? Oh, it ended on a cliffhanger. Too bad it's never going to get a sequel."

2019: "Ex-fucking-scuse me??????"

2023:

"WHAT"

#pokémon #detective pikachu #detective pikachu returns #I still can't fucking believe the nearly cancelled weird Motion Captured animation Pokémon detective game I watched videos about in 2013 #GOT TURNED INTO A BIG BUDGET HOLLYWOOD MOVIE STARRING RYAN REYNOLDS????? #The live action Pokémon movie people dreamed about for years came out then nobody in the Pokémon fandom ever talked about it again #Seriously the history of this spinoff is FASCINATING. I feel like it should be a bigger deal than it actually is #Btw anyone remember Jwittz? He was one of the earlier PokéTubers #Idk if he still post videos but he was an icon in my early Pokémon fan days. Plus he introduced me to Hoppip :)

Gai: *rolls over in bed and kisses Kakashi* Gai: Good morning, my love. Did you sleep well? Kakashi: Not really. Had a weird dream. Gai: What was it about? Kakashi: I was in the marketplace to buy eggplant, right? And I'm going along saying hi to everyone, and suddenly I look down and my clothes are gone! All of them, even my underwear! Kakashi: So I'm running around trying to find something to cover myself with, and these old ladies are standing by a barrel of apples pointing at me and laughing. And then I see Tenzo and he's naked, too! Kakashi: But his clothes are in his hands, neatly folded in a pile. He holds them out to me and goes "I knew this would happen so I was prepared this time, Senpai." Kakashi: But then as I'm trying to get dressed, the eggplant in my basket suddenly have teeth and they're leaping at me and biting my arms. And Minato-sensei was hiding behind a bush and he goes "What have I always told you about taking your eyes off of your opponents, Hatake?!" And then I woke up. Gai: That ... is the weirdest dream I've ever heard, rival. I wonder what it means? Kakashi: It could mean that my biggest fear is vulnerability, or feeling like I'm exposed. Or maybe it's my subconscious telling me that I'm trusting someone close to me that I shouldn't be. Or maybe -- Pakkun, at the foot of the bed: It MEANS he hasn't been taking his meds like he's supposed to. Kakashi: That too. Gai:

strap in for this week's fic flavor: the failsafe episode of season one of the young justice cartoon except the simulation just won't. fuckin. end.

(fics that inspired this at the end)

If I ever did sit down to make my own fic, I'd split it in 3 parts:

The Simulation: bits and pieces of the 40 years Dick lives after most everyone he knows has died

The Return: the immediate aftermath and healing from the trauma of having not-quite-actually lived a whole life only to wake up and find out it was all fake. nothing traumatizing about that whatsoever.

The Unintended Consequence: aka the twist I'd love to add and would hint to in the second part - finding out the simulation, through martian mind fuckery, pulled from the real world (and in many cases, from real minds). Dick meets a bunch of people he didn't think were real outside the confines of his simulated life. A bunch of rowdy, heroism-inclined teens across the years get to meet the sibling/friend/mentor figure they all dreamed up one night.

(actual idea snippets under the cut)

.

Dick Grayson is 14 and most of the world's heroes have died. He planned a suicide mission that left him the sole survivor of a doomed team he helped found. The invasion may have been stopped, but is this really the price he wanted to pay?

The first face he sees in the infirmary is Roy's, and he has to close his eyes and just breathe for a few minutes because for one painful moment he'd thought it was Wally. But this isn't the world where his best friend miraculously survived alongside him. This is the one where he got his best friend killed and didn't even give him the courtesy of following behind him. Behind them.

.

Dick Grayson is 27 and has lived longer without Bruce than with him. The invasion's anniversary is always a tough day for him, but that morning seems especially harrowing. He'll get shit for it later, but can't resist stepping out onto the balcony of the manor's master bedroom (Bruce's old bedroom) for a smoke -- his first since he'd promised to quit if Jason, just 15 then, did too.

"Bad habits tend to pile up," he'd said, a rueful quirk to his tired grin. He'd tapped the cigarette twice on the railing and added, lower, "and this one's especially nasty, huh."

He inhales, watches the sun creep across the horizon, and lets acrid smoke burn through his lungs for a long moment before blowing it out in a small cloud. His eyes water, but he doesn't cough. It tastes just as bad as it did the first time he smoked one, not even a year after the invasion and treading water as Robin proved insufficient.

There hadn't been enough heroes to go around then, and Dick had been trained by one of the best. It hadn't been fair, but it had been his plan that had ultimately stopped the invasion. His shoulders everyone's expectations fell on.

He takes another drag, then smudges the lit end against the rail he's leaned on when he hears a boot scuff purposefully against the roofing above him.

"Todd and Pennyworth will be upset with you."

He doesn't turn around. Damian doesn't jump down to join him.

.

Dick Grayson is 54 and wakes up in a room full of ghosts. He hears his long-dead father-figure tell his long-dead team about a simulation they weren't meant to win. A training exercise gone wrong and only half a day spent under their mentors' careful, if slightly panicked, supervision.

He looks at his hands, watching the way his gloves crease when he flexes them in and out of tight fists. He looks at his team, their eyes a little haunted but shoulders slumped with relief even as they grumble. Batman's heavy, gloved hand settles on his shoulder and the weight of it is a nauseating mix of foreign-familiar.

He opens his mouth. Closes it.

Tears prick his eyes behind his domino mask, and he tells himself the suffocating, acidic void building in his chest is just some leftover side effect of the ordeal and not the grief-guilt of outliving yet another family (no matter that they hadn't been real in the end).

.

Dick Grayson is 16-going-on-56 and well used to the coincidences piling up between his simulated life and the real thing. Some of it -- missions and villains he remembers cropping up -- he's marked for Bruce to review and sort as he pleases. Some -- security for the cave, team building anecdotes, and training regimens -- he's shared with the team. And some he keeps only for himself.

Tim is one of those. He knows it's not fair to the kid (so much smaller now than he ever was when Dick lived his simulated life), but he can't help being selfish just for this. Tim is the one kid he's sure he didn't make up, and if Dick's taken to babysitting the kid just to be near at least one member of the family he built for himself in the wake of the worst days of his life .... Well, anyone who says shit about it can happily stand in line to have their teeth kicked in.

Despite this, it still catches him off-guard when he sees a familiar face pop up in one of Bruce's reports.

Jason Todd, caught boosting tires off the batmobile, is nearly the same age now as he was when Dick met him. He stares at the words, but none of them really sink in beyond the kid's name and address. He's moving before he's even made the decision.

He's used to the world kicking him when he's down - lived it for 40 frustrating years. But he has Bruce again. And things with Tim have been so good. And he's always been selfish when it comes to family. If he could just see Jason. If he could just meet him. If he could talk to him.

If if if if if--
