This piece gave me so much hell but I was determined to finish in spite of my perfectionist tendencies LOL

#ff15 #ffxv #final fantasy 15 #final fantasy xv #noctis lucis caelum #my art #still not entirely happy with it but at some point you gotta just accept your art for what it is and move on #something I need to practice LOL #experimenting with style was fun though I really enjoy a messier sort of style #there’s a lot less pressure

I love the HC that Yona is Aro/Ace and she is 100% for Sidon being with Link cause she is very happy that if she is to be arranged in a marriage, it's one that's perfectly platonic, where Sidon too is happy.

And just Dorephan like... pestering about grandpups... and Yona like "Oh no... I am not pregnant... again... shucks. Damn. This is crazy. Shits crazy. Wow. Did not see that outcome. Insane."

Once the old man kicks the bucket Sidon is totally making it clear he's wed to Link and changing the dumb betrothal laws so Yona doesn't get screwed over either.

#down with dorephan #in not the fun way #kick the bucket old man #jk ily #we know it's muzu being homophobic #muzu probably gaslit the shit outta dorephan that sidon was platonic with link #though dorephan probably never left his damn throne to see the sidlink statue anyways #wtf though was that whale thinking #yona is aro/ace just like me #she just wants to not feel the pressures of society when it comes to marriage #and sidon was like #damn? for real? omg this works out then. #and sidon was like “hold my hand platonically”

AYYYY UNDERRATED VARPUNEN FAM TIME LESGOOO. I'm thinking I'll try to say one positive and one negative but I won't force it if it stalls me

P - Negative: See she was born into a warrior family (aka she's the beast variety of demon), which in itself was just not the right lifestyle for her personally. Real stressful. I could pick probably multiple experiences from here but let's highlight the string of clashes between a Plague from those days who ended up killing and injuring several beasts. There are still two living Villagers that bear the scars from this time. P, however, bears the mental scars of having one or her co apprentices and teachers murdered. She has survivors guilt and various other kinds of guilt from this and suffered a bad freeze reaction that has stayed with her for a while.. The victims weren't even super close to her, but it was the sheer horror of the fact that anyone could just die (and in her mind, it'd be her fault bc she failed to help them).

As a bonus, btw, the plague involved in these events is dead nowadays. Please, do take a guess as to how.

Positive: One time, P and Nan were left home alone together for roughly a week, and since P mostly didn't interact with Nan aside from what she deemed necessary, things got quiet and awkward for a bit.. P was honestly scared, bc she had the fear that this was some kind of test from their husband - one she could fail miserably, somehow, so she remained on her tiptoes the whole time. He said he'd be off on a business trip and as the author I can verify this is actually true, and it wasn't a test, but unfortunately Ps mental state was... Not good. Thanks to him. A few days in, Nan approaches P carefully and tells her that it's okay if she doesn't know what to say, and if she needs her alone time. But if she did want to hang out, or talk, or anything, Nan would be here listening, no pressure to come up with anything special. See Nan had thought that the avoidance had more to do with Ps social anxiety and being a very withdrawn person, rather than paranoia over their husband. Although I won't deny she had a hunch..

Either way, this left a very positive impression on P, and she found some kind of strength in the fact that maybe, just maybe, if things get bad enough, she can lean on Nan. That, and she decided then and there to try her best to treat nan better and try to approach her on her terms. It didn't end up happening too much (not enough in her eyes), but it did still happen.

Sighs lovingly. P deserves way more attention imo. I did not hold back from rambling. Anyways!

Pesticinger - Negative: (TW TORTURE FEEL FREE TO SKIP) So it's widely known she's unpopular amongst humans for obvious reasons, so they often plot various things to get back at her, and often try to even capture or kill it. So there's this waterfall. A group of humans really want Pesticinger to have her "comeuppance" for what she's put them through. So this waterfall. They've set a trap there, where there's a rope that ties into a noose when released, and it hangs under the rushing water. Pesticinger is lured into this trap, and here's the situation: she's got a noose around her throat, and it tightens the further you pull on it. If she gets swept up by the water's pull, it starts choking her, combined with the water trying to pull her under. So she has to literally constantly fight the water, or she suffocates (either by drowning, or noose). It is not a good time. Her feathers get soaked the hell out so flying becomes difficult, she's quickly exhausted and it's kinda hard to call for help when you're trying to fight suffocation. She was rescued, of course. Poor bird. But she can barely even look at a noose, and the noise of waterfalls gives her anxiety. So do ropes, if they're put anywhere near her body.

This next memory I'm not sure if I'd label it necessarily either strictly positive or negative but it was very impactful for her. See Pesticinger has the mental capacity to get really, really introspective and existential, but the way her brain works, also sometimes leads it to tie itself into knots and leads her down dead ends she can't think herself out of. So it can definitely overwhelm itself by overthinking. When she was still very young, in one of these cases, she came to speak to her creator henself; the Mistress. It asked many panicked, disjointed questions, trying to untangle it's mind, and getting distressed, it started knocking at it's head with it's foot. The Mistress, gently, places hens hand on Pesticingers face to block the hits, and they share silent eye contact for a moment.

"Dear bird.. You don't have to know all the answers. You might, someday, but you don't need to. You are more than just a bird, or a beast; you are a force of nature. Even still, you can be as ordinary as you want. Just don't forget yourself."

Pesticinger still feels.. Bittersweet, about it. She's frustrated that she didn't get the answers, in fact the denial of them entirely upset her back then. But she can't say it wasn't also comforting. The reason this memory isn't purely positive is mainly due to Pesticingers mindset.

I think I'll cap this post here BUT BEFORE I DO I'll include just a little something from Nan bc. My number one Varpunen fam for sure. It'll be under the cut

I'll be vague bc I was actually writing a whole thing about this and it's still kinda in progress. But.

Something that's really stuck with Nan was when she, at one point, took her kids to see their grandpa, aka Nans father. He knew there were kids, but hadn't met them due to life just sweeping everyone up for a while.

He did not react well to seeing them. Their visit became very short and very uncomfortable. Nan had to have a talk with her father privately, (His name is Yngve Surström, btw) while the kids awkwardly waited outside.

This would become the last time Nan sees her father before he disappeared completely. Nobody knows why. Or how.

good evening my cornered enjoyers just wanted to say I updated the mini ficlet "behind the scenes" work and that you should read it because its cool and awesome :-) that's all

So I know the general consensus is that, post-series, Yusei continues to work at MIDS, and I like that idea too -- he's certainly smart enough, after all -- but also. I like the idea of him just wanting A Very Quiet Life after everything and going back to being a mechanic. Like, MIDS is obviously a good use of his skills and all, but also he's just a dude who likes to work with this hands and MIDS wouldn't really be that. (Of course MIDS would call him every time something breaks and he would go fix it, but he's not someone who likes being in the spotlight and he would vastly prefer it if they'd just leave him alone.)

Anyway, this post isn't really going anywhere other than to say that Mechanic!Yusei lives rent-free in my head.

#yugioh 5ds #ygo 5ds #yusei fudo #as a side note: even though he still loves dueling i don't think he'd ever participate in tournaments again #like the only two he ever did ended in Traumatic Events so #he definitely officiates jr tourneys though #and does the occasional charity event duels #because those have zero stakes and are just really kinda fun since theres no pressure #but he doesn't do tournaments anymore because he is just So Done with the whole 'Saving the World' thing #hes done its someone elses turn okay

i don't know if it's just me but i've noticed that players are getting more impatient with the groves? like ik waiting 15 minutes is Not ideal but i'm used to people waiting at least,,, 10 before they start saying things like "chop" "anyone else" yknow? but nowadays i've noticed more and more players want to chop the groves like,,, 3 minutes after it gets called out. and it's like,, idk man, maybe i'm just Too used to waiting but that seems a little excessive. (or lord when one person just keeps chopping a tree and no one around them joins like Bro read the room ahdgl)

#like trust me i understand why people dont want to wait like i get it! #waiting isnt fun #but at the same time #you dont Have to stand there and wait #you can chop leave and go back to loot when its down #but if youre going to stand there and wait. dont rush people yknow? #especially with all the new switch players like give them time to look at the map!! #though tbh im pretty most of these who get impatient Are newer switch players so aldgh #idk man maybe its just my luck #but ive been noticing it more #its not exactly Rude but a change of culture maybe? #i just hope newer players who really need flow arent feeling pressured or rushed :( #oh!! and ive seen people start chopping even after someone says in server chat that theyre on their way! #like! you really cant wait one more minute? #thats so mean :( #i kinda hate when someone demands the grove be chopped at a certain time too like who made you grove king #🤨 #aldhgldga

i think about the fact that Nico’s powers randomly include temperature control way too much. he can make stuff cold! and is apparently immune to cold himself, at least to some degree! why? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯probably ghost reasons! even though it is not inherently tied to ghosts at all and he can just Do That!

#pjo #riordanverse #nico di angelo #its probably ghost reasons for the whole ''oh ghosts are cold'' and ''ghosts make enviornments color'' thing #the other theoretical reason is ''something something mythology'' cause yknow. the whole myth of how the seasons happened #but based on that alone then Nico shouldnt necessarily have that power? #itd be more of a cabin 4 thing #idk i just like his weird cold powers. theyre so random. he is immune to cold and can drop the temperature around him. good for you bud. #it's fun to mess around with too cause Nico is basically completely unaware of it #he just does it by accident like his killing grass thing #''Nico why is there frost everywhere and its below freezing all of a sudden?'' ''oh sorry i thought i saw a bug'' #my favorite part though is the temperature powers thing seems to not be inherently tied to nico himself just naturally running cold #though it could probably affect that as well. nico naturally running cold is most likely his vitals run slower than most people's #cause we know he can control that re: Death Trance #which is another interesting thing. Nico can control his vitals! he can just go ''im gonna take five on MY HEART FUNCTIONING real quick brb' #Nico's bleeding out? no problem! just. turns off his heart. crank that puppy down a bit. cant bleed out if the blood's not moving! #this could also be why he passes out so much. his powers make his blood pressure inherently low and then uses them more. whoops. hes asleep. #i do v much like the hc that Nico just. cannot perceive external temperature. he's just always A Little Chilly cause of his powers #doesnt matter what the actual temperature is. he'll be fine. just also Slightly Cold thus Always Needs Layers

Day 22 of Trying to Convince @itmustbek8 to Watch Revolutionary Girl Utena

(without context)

It's both wonderful and strange, and the company that licenses it has it on Youtube for free, so...

Are you convinced yet?

#revolutionary girl utena #honestly no pressure though #i had so much fun putting these together #and there are plenty of things i didn't even mention #like akio's stupid ponytail/mullet thing and his ridiculous hair bauble #and saionji's exchange diary #and the fact that despite not being a musical it definitely has more original songs than Dance With Devils (and they're all BOPS) #on a serious note you may want to check the trigger warnings if you need because this show can get... intense #i just hope more people find it and love it because it is beautiful and bonkers in the best ways

what’s really embarrassing is my roommate on the phone with his mom saying “yeah i’ve been getting really sloppy i haven’t cleaned in a week it’s terrible” and my side of the room is just like that. all of the time. and i feel guilty but he also hasn’t ever said anything to my face he moved my stuff some at the beginning of the year but has never talked to me about it and i’m also so fucking ill that i just cant really handle adding that to my list while trying to also not fail school. so here i am being a terrible person i guess. did i tell you guys about turtle-person. have i showed my bracelets. i’m gonna go to sleep but in the morning i need to show my bracelets

#help i have work tomorrow. i also feel sick and strange. wish me luck #the sun was around today which was incredible but also i think it gave me too much mental energy #cause for the first time in forever i had the brightness of spirit to go for a walk. but that’s not the same as having the blood flow for it #so i think i overexerted myself cause of being finally happy and mentally energized i forgot about being physically disabled #i also had to explain POTS to somebody today and she was literally like ‘oh is that the thing where you need to have salt’ and NO like #i do have a really high salt intake to cope with POTS. but that’s not the fucking thing yknow?? like no that’s not what the thing i have is #it has nothing to do with salt. salt is a fun little coincidence that it can help with water retention which in turn helps with POTS #and it raises blood pressure is i think the other reason? but anyway idk i would honestly rather she just not know about it than have like #that very particular tiktok version of it like i am so glad for internet knowledge being spread and stuff and i mean. i guess even the posts #that i’m about to complain about are good for making people feel like they’re not alone. so maybe it’s fine. but i was going to complain of #the videos that are like ‘‘that one POTS friend’’ and it’s just like. salty food. instead of like. having to sit down?? BEING FATIGUED?? #and like whatever. whatEVER but i wish it wasn’t getting conflated with one particular little way of treating it. even though i use that way #i don’t have needs-a-lot-of-salt-disease. like that’s not the point. that’s not the issue. it’s not a salt deficiency. salt just helps #and it doesn’t FIX it. it just helps. that’s all #ANYWAY EVERYTHING IS FINE. i feel sick though. but i’m gonna sleep and i’ll be fine #i miss before i had a job cause then i could sleep all day if i skipped class and it would be really nice. but now i have a job i would be #missing on my responsibilities for. and I don’t actually have accommodations. but im gonna sleep i’ll be fine #and library book cart is actually so rollator. like as far as being able to walk the library situation is such a win #anyway i’m gonna go to sleep now. but yeah idk i’m sick and a mess what else is new. but i have something whatever i’m good theres something #unrequited love for life or something like that. ok im gonna go to bed sorry for being weird and strange all the time!!!! #me. my post. mine. #delete later

hey!! So, about Bombshell, his pronouns are he/they, sorry for not clarifying!! :p their personality is like Hobie Brown from ATS, basically just an anarchist who goes against higher ups. They are very loyal, as their family gave him up as a kid, landing in the hands of moths who worshipped a moon god. Not traditional with the type of moth he is (brown moth). And so, he has been somewhat judged for this, that and how he has no wings that can fly, but he is loyal to his family for taking him in and loyal to the Shadow Wizard Money Gang (yes, that’s the organization name) who took him in as well. He can be intimidating, most of the time, again due to his height, but also in that he doesn’t talk much. (Opposite of me. When he does, he can sound intimidating, despite his voice, as he makes threats and such to the enemy. But if he likes you, he will always give you hugs or head pats. :)

Awh man, I love Bombshell, he's so very cool! Where did they get their nickname Bombshell from, though? Because while it may sound really cool, it's also so very different from his real name :o Would he ever want to fly? It's fascinating that he can't, but I wonder if he ever dreamt about doing so before! Also Hobie Brown is such a cool character, I loved that guy in ATSV! So I can already tell that Bombshell is a lovely moth lit! Now that I have some grasp of what they are like, I do agree that them and Arya would get along! Arya is a little bastard and instigator, though, so you can expect her to go along with something stupid and chaotic, or even suggest such a thing! Your session sounds like it must have been a lot of fun, especially if you made up an organization called Shadow Wizard Money Gang! Also!! Hugs and headpats :D Who doesn't love that sort of thing!! That makes me like him so much more too!!! He's great and I love him!! Have you ever drawn him or have you ever had someone else draw him? :>

#cherry chats #I love talking OCs with people #you are so incredibly creative! #please do spam my inbox with any relevant and irrelevant information about Bombshell!! I would bake him a cake!! #sorry I'm not good at responding today! it's Friday and I don't sleep enough during the week haha #if I could draw I'd draw him for you but alas I'm no artist! but I would love to see him if you have a drawing lying around! #no pressure though! I only have drawing of two of my OCs as well so I get it! #do you still play as him in DnD or are those sessions over these days? if so do you have any fun or interesting stories to tell? #I don't have much to tell since I only played twice but there are always some humorous moments. especially if you have bad luck #also sorry for the late reply. no excuse I just forgot this time but I remembered afterwards! #today was a busy day again with lots of problems but it should be alright now!
