hi um so this is like my first time making a request, like ever. I’m not even sure if this is where I’m supposed to put a request. So I’m really nervous but this idea has been in my head for weeks and I need it to be brought to life? Idk but can I request Matt Murdock with a sort of shy reader? Where he tells her about his abilities and daredevil and everything (established relationship) and she doesn’t really care as long as he’s safe but she has something in her mind and he notices and keeps asking and basically she has a question about his senses, specifically his taste and idk if you know but Matt can canonically know ALL of the ingredients of anything just from a taste and she basically wants to make him taste a bunch of stuff and tell her the ingredients of it so she can make them? I know this is probably WAY too specific so feel free to completely ignore this, I just wanted to get it out.
hi my darling!
so I actually read this request right before going to the grocery store, and while I was looking through produce, it made me think about how matt would absolutely know which produce was the freshest and which ones to avoid. I kinda mixed that in with your idea about being able to tell exactly what ingredients were in something, and I hope this is close to what you were looking for! <3
warnings: tooth rotting fluff and matt being a lil shit word count: 1.3k
lemons.
Tumblr media
“Not that one.”
You hand instantly stilled over a lemon that your fingertips had already grazed over. Glancing at Matt over your shoulder, a crease formed between your brows while you looked back down at it.
“What do you mean? This one is perfect-”
“It’s not ripe enough.”
“But…it’s so yellow, like sunshine yellow.”
A faint smile tugged at the corner of Matt’s lips when he felt the way your own pursed into a bit of a confused pout. It was something you always did when you were intensely focused on something, and he found it endearing. Reaching his hand out, he used the pad of his thumb to smooth away the furrow that had creased in the middle of your forehead, and his soft smile curled up into a light smirk catching the flush of heat that immediately coursed through the tops of your cheeks.
“Well, I’m sure it’s a very pretty lemon, but it doesn’t taste ripe.”
Ever since Matt had told you the truth about his vigilante identity and his abilities, you’d had countless questions. You wouldn’t voice them at first, almost as if you were afraid to cross some invisible boundary that Matt might have, but he knew you, and he knew how to dismantle that shy exterior of yours. From the moment the two of you first met, you had been overly polite and accommodating about his disability, but not in a way that made him uncomfortable. You didn’t walk on eggshells around him or call any extra attention to his blindness. In fact, the way you interacted with him was so seamless, it was almost like it came second nature.
If you guys were grabbing coffee with Karen and Foggy, you would automatically place the raw sugar packets within his reach because you knew he preferred it to the artificial sweeteners. If the four of you went to check out a new lunch spot, you always called ahead to check if they had a menu in braille and made sure Matt was given one. There were so many little things you did to make him feel included and normal. It was part of why he fell so hard for you.
You never asked about the origin of his blindness, and even after he opened up and told you about his accident, you were reserved with your questions. He could tell you were curious, and he wanted you to ask. He wanted you to know things about him. You were a bit of a wallflower, and Matt could always feel you silently observing him, but he wanted you to understand him. He quickly realized he would have to flat out grant you permission to be nosey, and so he did.
Out of everyone he had revealed his Daredevil secret to, you had taken it the best. He didn’t know if he would ever get over the surprise of just how well you handled it. You didn’t get angry or yell at him. You didn’t call him a liar or a traitor, or ask him if he was faking his blindness; all reactions he expected. You just sat there in pure confusion, and you were silent for so long, Matt was panicked that he’d sent you into a state of shock. When it finally settled in that it wasn’t a joke, your brows knit together, and Matt could feel the way your face contorted into an expression of irritation when you flat out asked him if he was crazy. The memory of that night never failed to make him smile.
“Um…well, I mean…not in the traditional sense-”
“Matthew, what the hell are you thinking running around on rooftops, going after guys with guns and knives with…sticks? How do you even do that?”
“They’re batons, actually. Look it’s hard to explain, but I have heightened senses that help me-”
“Are those super senses going to keep you out of prison? Because that’s where you’re going if you get caught. What was the point of going hundreds of thousands of dollars into debt for law school if you were just going to wind up a prison cell for doing backflips off buildings in your underwear?”
“Heightened senses. And it’s not underwear. Underwear is comfortable.”
There hadn’t been a hint of anger in your voice. Annoyance, sure, but mainly concern. All you wanted was for Matt to be safe, and he did his best to assure you that he would be. Matt went into as much detail as he could to help you understand his abilities, and the more comfortable you got with asking him things, the more you learned.
Like how he could tell exactly what ingredients were in the lemon bread at the cafe down the street from your apartment that you loved so much, which was currently the reason behind your little trip to the store at the moment. All it took was one bite of the bread, and he knew exactly how to replicate it.
Apparently he could also tell when lemons were at their peak.
Reaching into the pile of lemons, Matt grasped the one that was in perfect condition to him and held it out towards you. Taking the lemon in your hand, you gave it a light squeeze, noticing that it was firm to the touch but easily gave into the gentle force of your fingers testing its density. 
“Feel the rind.”
Following Matt’s instructions, you brushed your thumb along the bright yellow rind. It was smooth to the touch, and somewhat glossy as it nearly reflected the brightness of the overhead lighting in the grocery store. 
“It’s shiny.”
Matt chuckled at your response and lightly nodded his chin in your direction.
“What else?”
“It’s smooth.”
“It’s perfectly ripe. The zest on this one is the freshest. It has the most flavor, and the right amount of juice.”
Arching one of your brows, you stared up at Matt curiously while still faintly squeezing the lemon in your hand.
“You can tell how much juice is in this just by touching it?”
A grin stretched across Matt’s lips, showcasing his dazzling teeth and causing indents to appear in his cheeks. His thick brows rose slightly above the rim of his crimson glasses.
“Are you doubting me, sweetheart?”
“No I’m just…still trying to figure out how you do…what you do.”
A bashful twinge of heat coated your cheeks once again, and Matt thought it was adorable that you diverted your attention back to the lemon shyly to avoid his gaze even though he couldn’t see your reaction. He reached out to tenderly brush his knuckles along the warmth in your cheeks while he smiled in your direction. 
“I’ll try to do better at explaining. Now c’mon, we have more ingredients to get. You know, I think this bread is gonna turn out so well, the one at the cafe might not meet your standards anymore.”
The confidence in Matt’s voice caught your attention, and you couldn’t stop the smile that spread across your lips. Sometimes you forgot that your boyfriend was the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen that everyone was so afraid of. If only they knew that he spent his Saturdays sniffing out ingredients at the grocery store like a bloodhound to help his girlfriend recreate the recipe for her favorite lemon bread.
“You know, if you didn’t love law so much, you could’ve made out like a bandit in a baking competition.”
“Oh I would’ve won with my sob story of being a blind little Catholic orphan alone.”
“Matthew!”
Matt snickered at the disbelief in your tone, but he could also detect the way the edges of your lips twitched, like you weren’t sure if you should laugh at that or not. Snaking his arm around your waist, he pressed a light kiss to your forehead and gently nudged you in the direction towards the spice aisle.
“Come on, we need flour.”

fic rec friday 5
hi!! welcome to fic rec friday. every week, i pick five fics i have bookmarked and rec them with a little review. check them out!
You and I were Fireworks by percyspandapillowpet
“Eleven fifty-eight,” he said, and when he tilted his head back up, his eyes were sparkling. “There’s still enough time to go see the fireworks,” Nico realized aloud. “Do you want to…” Will shook his head, expression unchanging. “Nah. Fireworks are overrated. I’d rather stay here with you.”
look one thing this author can nail is SWEET. also will with his seltzer made me smile idk why but it did. im just a huge fan of slice of life stories and this is such a cute one!!
2. Love Wins by percysandapillowpet
“I’ll be right there!” he shouted, and the knocking stopped. On a count of three, he managed to push the duvet off his arms and legs and let his feet fall to the floor. He glanced down at what he was wearing—a black t-shirt and flannel pants, that would have to do—and walked over to the door. “What do you want, Solace?” he asked, pulling it open. Will was all smiles and sunshine. “Did you hear?” Nico narrowed his eyes. “Hear what? If this is some big event, then no, because I’ve been asleep like a normal person.” Will might as well have been jumping up and down, he looked so excited. “Nico, they did it! The Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage for the entire country! This morning!”
i read this fic in 2017 actually. and i REMEMBER how huge 2015 was; i'm canadian but it was massive. i was 12/13ish so i was in percy jackson back then too, and i remember reading DOZENS of fics that came out right after. this was so huge and this fic captures that :)
3. I Think You're My Best Friend by percyspandapillowpet
“You know what always makes cleaning more fun?” Will asked, sweeping a pile of dust and dirt into the center of the room. “What?” Nico replied, trying to hold back a smile. He found himself doing that a lot these days, too. Will set his broom down against one of the cots that lined the wall. “Music!”
this one made me melt bc personally....if someone called me their favourite i would never ever recover. never ever. and i love short & sweet fics about specific interactions/moments!! and this author nails that!!
4. Darkness by percyspandapillowpet
“So,” Will says, slightly awkwardly, making Nico realize that he forgot to respond to whatever he last said. “Um, you wanted something to take your mind off things?” He pulls back from the hug just enough to see his face, holding him at arms length. “I’ve, uh, got an idea.” He’s not used to Will looking so unsure of himself. He’s always acting so overly cocky. Kiss me, Nico thinks. “What?” he asks. Will smiles, then, his confidence restored. “Let’s go for a hike.”
sweet kisses in nature....the big three boys truly know how it's done bc the way i would SWOON and crumble. also i love it when nico is so so bad at like talking to people lol. hes so real.
5. Past, Present, Future by percyspandapillowpet
“We’ll help her, okay?” Will continues. “We’ll do the best that we can. You and I both know what this feels like. We need to give her support and take care of her for a while.” He nods again, glancing at her sleeping form in the cot. She looks a little less pained, and a little more peaceful. Nico is already dreading how she might react when she wakes again. “We’ll take care of her,” he repeats.
first of all proposal fics get me literally every time. second of all i do love fics where ppl explore what theyre future might look like!!! what they might be when theyre older!! theyre so careful with each other u know.
thank you for joining me this friday!! happy reading!!

Note: Midterms came and life got in the way, but now I’m back and hopefully for good! Yes, I still also have finals, but I’m slowly getting back into my Stardew phase so hopefully I stay. Anyways, enjoy!
How the Bachelors are when you’re sick:
Sam
- God he would not know what to do
- The first time you get sick, I feel like he’d internally panic and get everything from Pierre’s store to help you feel better
- After awhile he’ll understand what exactly to get you when you’re sick.
- Medicine, your favorite snacks, favorite movies, all of them
- He’d put it in a little basket too, sweet boy
- Bonus, he would not care at all about hugging and kissing while you’re sick. In fact he’d probably whine if you don’t kiss him
- In the end he would get more sick than you were
Sebastian
- he’d have a little more direction than Sam would
- He’d try to give you some medicine to help you recover, and he’d definitely get you some movies you two could watch together to pass the time
- He’d be more hesitant to cuddle though
- Physical touch has never been his strong suit in the first place
- Either way he’ll still show how much he cares, asking occasionally if you need anything or if you want him to get anything for you
Harvey
- he’s a doctor, he’s gonna immediately take care of you
- I feel like he gets a little too overprotective when it comes to your health
- I mean he’s already worried sick whenever you go on your adventures in the mines. But going sick? Not on his watch
- Unfortunately he would not even let you get out of the bed, let alone do any chores on the farm
- But its doctor’s orders right?
- Sometimes he’ll get overly technical with you about your meds, but he always means well
- If you were really sick he’d make sure to call off of work or have Maru take over for the day while he’s caring for you
Alex
- So at first he’d ask advice from his grandma.
- As much as he’d love to help, sometimes he doesn’t really know what to do to make you feel better besides medicine.
- Even with medicine he’d sometimes mix it up and get confused
- Once his grandma’s over, he’d suddenly switch from clueless to being his grandma’s helper for you
- If she’s baking you cookies? He’s getting all the ingredients and helping her mix
- Whenever she’s not over and she calls you to make sure you’re okay, Alex would be there to immediately
- Alex would also definitely help out on the farm. Moving things around, making sure the crops are watered and the animals are fed
- He doesn’t know much, but he knows you shouldn’t be doing any farm work
- And helping around the farm and carrying heavy stuff? That he knows he can do.
- Sometimes whenever he comes in from a long day out on the farm, you can see a small satisfied smile on his face
- When he feels like he’s done something to help you out, he can’t help but smile
Shane
- “Have a beer.”
- He backs off after you glare at him
- “Okay okay! Not funny, here I have some anti nausea meds if you need some.”
- He’d (begrudgingly) cuddle and hold you throughout the days that you’re sick
- He’d also run out and get some things for you if you asked, but I’m not sure if he’d go out of his way to get everything
- If you had a specific favorite or comfort food, he would pick it up though
Elliot
- Okay, imagine him reading you stories and books while you’re resting in bed.
- He’d go out of his way to get all of your favorite books and basically put on a whole play for you while reading them
- So cute
- I think he’s also be into herbal medicines from the beach or the ocean.
- Idk like seaweed soup? Something like that
- But if you didn’t like that, he would still do his best to cheer you up.
- He took on piano for a reason right? Might as well give you a small show, and from the comfort of your bed!

"Friendships are a lot more like romance than people admit" anon here. So I gave zero detail whatsoever, and it's been kind of interesting to see what people came up with in response. That said, I actually meant it a lot more in terms of specifics and mechanics?
Friendships have an "infatuation" phase where getting to know the person and spending time with them is effortless and fun and you feel like you'll never get bored of each other. Friendships often involve an expectation of emotional connection and telling each other things, making the other a part of your life to some extent. It's possible to have feelings of jealousy for a friend, especially if you suddenly become a lot less important to them in favor of a new person in their life (which in an exclusive romantic relationship might be considered a kind of "emotional cheating"). It's possible for a friendship to fail or peter out for the exact same reasons where, if it were a romantic couple getting couples therapy, their therapist would tell them "You need to reconnect by doing things together again, you need to make an effort and work at restoring your connection". Which sometimes romantic couples do, and then they stay together, but in friendships it seems to be kinda seen as normal and not imbued with the same sense of almost-tragedy? Even though it's a very comparable time and energy commitment essentially going down the drain. Finally, it's quite possible to be heartbroken that a friendship ended, and a toxic friendship can be every bit as damaging as a toxic romance. To put it in a phrase, you could take any number of posts asking for relationship advice where, if you removed monikers like "friend" or "SO/gf/bf", it would be very difficult to tell if the relationship is romantic or not.
"Romantic relationships are like friendships" is equally controversial in the sense that a lot of people don't really seem to know what to do when the infatuation wears off, partly because media and culture seem deeply uninterested in exploring this stage of romantic relationships? Or they interpret the inevitable fade of hormone-fueled excitement as falling out of love, break off the relationship, and rinse and repeat this a few times before they wisen up and learn to form long-lasting friendships with the people they fall in love with.
To wit, close friendships and romance both involve love and attachment and (some amount of) commitment. And yet we barely ever seem to talk about friendships using the language of love, even though love is unquestionably what's going on there. (Again, I'm talking about close, long-lasting friendships.)
..Or maybe my experiences are not universal and I'm just a weirdo who gets overly attached. Idk.
--
I refer to "friend breakups" and "friend dumping" all the time.
I think if you put it in those terms, most people agree: they've had some devastating end to a friendship that hurt them more than half their romantic breakups. It's just not how movies tend to describe it... at least not in words. Buddy movies are all about the idea that a friend breakup is the literal worst thing in the universe though.
I guess I roll my eyes a tad because I've witnessed decades of finger-wagging books about how we don't care enough about friendships and those are what really predict adult mental health in the long term, blah blah blah. Things like friend crushes (that honeymoon period) and devastating friend breakups are well known to psychologists and self help book writers.
Anyway, you aren't weird, and people who want to keep their long-term friends need to make time for some friend dates if they want to keep the magic going.

Hi! I'm Raven, been lurking for like a year so hello to anyone who may recognize me 😅
I'm aroace and use any pronouns but with a preference towards neopronouns and they/them
I have an Ao3 account where I post occasionally: Ravenpuff99
I've been hyperfixated on Geminitay since about 2020, so pretty much any mcyt series or SMP she has been a part of feel free to talk to me about!
Additionally, the fandoms I engage with are as follows: hermitcraft, empires SMP, the life series, new life/afterlife/x life SMPs, and a little bit of SOS smp and Sanders Sides on the side. (yes, I am very biased towards mcyt, shhhh). I do know a lot of dsmp stuff as well and might interact with it from time to time (as well as minimal knowledge of the qsmp that may also be interacted with) but I've never actually seen any real clips all I know is fandom osmosis so. Bear that in mind.
Please don't engage me in discourse!!! No real DNI but I block liberally so if I find your presence to be stressful or make my online experience unenjoyable goodbye (:
You also may notice from time to time that yes, I use I/me and we/us pronouns interchangeably. No, I am not a system. It just ends up feeling more comfortable and natural for me, get over it.
One final thank you to my best friend and queerplatonic partner @celestialgreen for drawing my icon!!!
Tagging system below cut (will be updated over time), important ones will be coloured in blue:
#cool arts (: - literally any art. drawing, writing, cosplay, textile, music, you name it
#not kid friendly - (pt: not kid friendly) for anyone who age regresses or has a little in their system, this tag is for anything that you would not want to see while little (or don't want a child alter coming across it on my blog). This includes the obvious such as anything explicit or overly suggestive, an excess of gore or violence, large amounts of swearing, etc. A lot of it will be based on my own judgement as an older sibling, cousin, and someone who has spent many years watching young children, but if I don't tag something you think should be tagged please bring it up with me
#art things / writing things - these tags specifically refer to memes or things around the actual process or creating art, not actual art (though some may be informational comics idk depends on the day)
#friends' writing - writing that a friend of mine made, not just somebody I found or admire (same goes with the art version)
#keys' writing - writing specifically done by @darubyprincx because I like it and it's my blog

Yeah! Fantasy racism is a subject that I think about a lot, like- racism exists because colonism and colonism only exists because the state wants to make a profit
Reducing racism to fear of the body is something a lot of fantasy writers do and it always bothers me
But it's also something that I worry I will stumble into accidently- like I'm brown but I have this little world building project where I want to put my own experiences with racism but i always worry that I'm gonna fumble it badly- because ultimately these fantasy characters aren't human, so my experiences won't translate completely
I think the issue comes from the range of xenofiction is out there, like from end end of the spectrum you got stories from perspective real life rabbit trying to evade a real life fox then which is all about the animals experience rather than a human one, then you got works like zootopia from the other end, trying to insert the human experience of racism into the mix qnd failing badly cause these are animals, its not gonna translate
Which is why despite bodies being a big part of my world building project I'm touching the fear of the body aspect of racism, not only because its already a miniscule aspect of racism that gets overly focused on but also because these characters aren't human so its just make me end up in a zootopia situation
IDK, does this make sense, I'm still not sure how I feel about fantasy racism as a trope in general so if you disagree with any points (or all of them) I'd like to hear
idk i think including fantasy racism is fine but you'll have to really deconstruct WHY racism is bad far past the basic "don't descriminate against people" stage, otherwise i think you wont be able to critique it well enough and might end up perpetuating your own biases (it's alright we've all got them)
what i try to remember when writing fantasy racism is that whatever the racist people need to claim about the people they're being racist against NEEDS to be not true in order to be at all analogous to human racism. and it's best if the racism is within one species, so as to not accept the idea that there are genuine genetic differences between races of people, seeing as "race" isnt really a scientific category.
oh, and the bigots should probably try really hard to make it seem credible, to the point that people who don't think they're personally a bigot could even think that the racist ppl are being reasonable sometimes. but at it's core, it needs to just NOT BE TRUE.
like for example in Bright, people are "racist" against the orcs because the orcs sided with a dark overlord in the past (i think). which is an interesting idea, but because bright is clearly making the orcs analogous to black people, it just ends up coming off as really insulting. black people and similarly racially coded minorities didn't side with an evil guy a thousand years ago, that's not why white ppl enslaved and impoverished and murdered us lmao.
like that could be an interesting world building thing about descendants being punished and discriminated against for the actions of ancient ancestors and stuff. but like. they're coded as black people. and that's just NOT MUY BUENO.
zootopia was kind of shit in a lot of ways but one thing i do appreciate and that i think they got right is that the "going feral" thing was a LIE. in the fiction of zootopia, predator animals aren't actually inherently more dangerous. and it wasnt just a LIE it was a CONSPIRACY to play on people's prejudiced fears in order to gain power or something idk i forget. everything else aside i think that was a good call.
and yknow you dont always have to make it a "race" thing specifically. people have been bigoted against each other for their looks for a long time, but race specifically is pretty new. ethnicities and cultures and traditions are also things you can write people to be bigoted against. it doesn't have to be a 1 to 1 analogy for IRL modern day racism in america or anything.
i also enjoy stories like Beastars, where it develops its own worlds premise well enough that it feels more like an exploration of an interesting concept than a clunky racism or sexism analogy.
idk im not even much of a writer. i just like to think about stuff.

a long and overly detailed guide on transferring CSP brushes in between devices because i am stupid so someone out there probably is too and might need this
yeah so i spent like the past 3 days trying to figure everything out, and i figured i would save people time in case they were going through the same stuff (also in case this happens again and i Forget)
this guide is specifically for version 1.0, the discontinued version. I have no clue if it applies to any version after, but you can try it.
so let's say you draw on your laptop, and you get a new one. here is what you should do
...actually before i get into the steps, make sure to back up all of your settings and brushes here. it will make your life a lot easier trust me
back up all your app settings on your old device, and then restore them in your new one once you have installed CSP onto your new device
Tumblr media
HOWEVER STARTING FROM THE TOP...buy some sort of USB/hard drive. stick it into your new laptop and then copy and paste everything necessary into it (all CSP/CELSYS setup/files. additionally any art files or whatever else you have downloaded that you wanna bring along, but in this case, we're only talking abt the CSP app itself)
once you copy all the necessary files onto your hard drive (MAKE SURE before you eject the hard drive, that it is safe to eject. the one i used had an option where i had to click eject hard drive, and only after clicking it could i safely eject it)
okay now you have all the stuff you need. stick the hard drive into your new device and copy and paste your stuff into your new device.
These steps might take more or less time but now going back to the cloud back up thing from the beginning. if this process is successful, once you click "restore app settings", everything should be fine and you should be all good to go and this tutorial ends here
However, if you open CSP and all of your brushes have become deformed like so, and almost the entirely of your materials folder is empty, this is what this guide is for💀
Tumblr media
As far as I know, if this happens you're basically fucked 💀 you can keep trying to backup your cloud settings, but after a couple of times, if none of your brushes are restored, you will have to use other means.
You will have to transfer brushes over to your new device individually, and during this stage, I really recommend you just download all your favorite brushes. You can redownload the other ones in the CSP assets store later
go to your old device and right click your fav brush. Let's say my fav brush is the Lan Brush. I'm going to right click Lan Brush, click export sub tool, and download it. It will naturally save as a sut file (Lan Brush.sut)
idk if other people had to do this, but I did so. basically you go to your downloads and make a new zipped file, name it whatever your brush is (so Lan Brush)
once the zipped file has been created, you now have the zipped file and the sut file. take the sut file, and drag it into the zipped file
this step kind of requires a google drive but i trust you have one. so go to your google drive. take the zipped file, and just drag it into your drive, and it should naturally upload
now, switch to your new device. if you go onto your google drive, the zipped file should be there. download that zipped file, and then right click, and click extract all.
go to CSP, right click any brush (it doesnt matter which one, it will not affect your brushes dont worry), and click import sub tool. navigate to your folder, or in my case, Lan Brush, and click on it. you should now see the sut file inside the folder
click on the sut file, and now your brush should be uploaded! Feel free to drag your brush into your CSP material folder to save it there too :) do this as many times as you need with however many brushes you want
this is also good for uploading brushes in general, so if you make a fun brush you wanna share with your friends, you can turn it into a downloadable zip file and then share it by exporting the sub tool
BUT WAIT THERES MORE !!!!! I've covered brushes, but what about 3D models? what about image materials? Sites will tell you it is currently not possible to transfer it without blender but don't believe them, i have the will of a desperate artist
For the most part, if the 3D model or the image asset is available on the CSP asset store, I would recommend just searching it up and downloading it, its the fastest way💀 however if these assets are for whatever reason deleted and unavailable, then you can do this
Let's start with 3D models. Let's say you have a 3D model or a body shape asset or something.
make a blank canvas and drag whatever model(s) you want on there. as long as theyre on separate layers, its fine.
now save the canvas as a clip studio paint file as you normally would.
go to your google drive, and drag the csp file into it. it should upload naturally as a zipped file
Go onto your new device and download the zipped file. Right click and extract all. Now you should be able to access the CSP file. Open it on CSP.
now go to your layers. you see the layer the 3D model is on? take it and drag it into your CSP materials folder.
congrats! now your 3D model is an official asset again and you can use it whenever you want
This also applies to image materials too, and basically every other asset, so you can do that with your other stuff too.
That is where this tutorial should end but if you're like me, you will struggle even more😇 this step only applies to image materials, so i cannot provide you with further advice for imported 3D assets
Let's say you try to save all of your image assets in separate layers into a CSP file to upload onto your new device. however, you are out of storage. your file keeps encountering errors, and you cannot save your file no matter what, thus you cannot upload it to your google drive
this is what i would refer to as a last resort. it is super annoying so dont do it unless you're desperate but open up a tumblr draft. yes open up a tumblr draft.
you are going to copy that layer and paste it into your drafts. save it
okay now go onto your new device, and open an empty CSP canvas. Log into tumblr, go to your drafts and click on the image.
copy and paste the image into your blank canvas and then take the layer the image is on, and drag it into your material downloads like you would in the previous process with the 3D stuff
If by any chance the image that you are copy and pasting is transparent in any way, or black and white, when you paste it onto tumblr, tumblr will provide you with a white background, which is kind of annoying
either ways once your layer has become transparent again, you can drag the layer into your material downloads, and you're done.
but continue to copy and paste it back onto your canvas, and now you should have your image material with a white background.
To get rid of the background and make it transparent again, click "edit" at the top, and then "Convert brightness to opacity". Converting brightness to opacity will make your image greyscale, but I'm kind of assuming your image is already in black in white.
If it's transparent and not in black and white, idk how to help you there, you'd have to recolor it once its transparent again ig💀 this mainly applies to lineart type images (where recoloring it is easy with the bucket tool)
That's all I have to say, but if you have any problems with any of the steps, feel free to ask me (I'm not the most tech savvy person though, hence why I'm making this guide to help myself too💀 but I will try to answer you as best as I can)!

idk if you’d find this interesting but i think you might so i’ll share it. i hope it’s not bothering you! but i’ve learned a lot about cetacean captivity from following you and it’s made me interesting it getting other professional opinions on the matter. today i went to visit the sydney sea life aquarium in australia and the aquarists were patient enough to let me pick their brains a bit, specifically about the toki situation. interestingly enough, sealife’s parent company is explicitly anti cetacean captivity, enough so that they run a sea pen for two belugas in iceland that originally came from an aquarium that they acquired in shanghai. the marine biologist that let me bother her with my dumb questions is one of the trainers for their dugong so she has a fair bit of experience with marine mammals and she told me that her personal opinion is that toki doesn’t have the immune system for wild release and most likely isn’t going to survive a year. so a lot of the same stuff you’ve said. idk, i just thought it was interesting that even professionals who are generally anti cetacean cap (or who work for organizations that are) don’t think that it’s a good idea. sorry if you don’t really care or if this is obvious lol i just thought of you after talking with her :) as thanks for reading my long winded ask, here’s a picture of the dugong, pig, during a training session!
Tumblr media
Hi Pig! What a cutie!
@local-hellhound-steals-spaghetti acutally used to work at this aquarium, so she can probably speak on it better than I can. I posted about the beluga sanctuary here, but basically, my opinions on SEA LIFE are *rolls eyes*. As far as aquariums go, they're fine. Their US locations are AZA accredited, but they're pretty middle-of-the-road in my opinion. I've only been to one location and wasn't overly impressed.
I also don't like the idea that fish are somehow less important and less deserving of exceptional welfare than more charismatic species like cetaceans. Sharks in particular need a lot of specialized care. But SEA LIFE is more than happy to put them in shopping malls (I don't know about the one you visited, but all their US locations are literally in malls) and publicly slander other far superior aquariums for housing cetaceans.
Of course, this is all directed at Merlin Entertainment managment, not the aquarists and trainers on the ground, who sound like they know their stuff!

WHAT DID U GUYS THINK ABT THE LATEST MV IM GOING INSANE
tw for suicide, mention of alcohol
Admin Saturn: I now have a crush on kazui! The other admins have been trying to convince me that because his whole arc is showing why he's not a good husband to his wife but like bro... open marriage and a guy that buys me flowers and holds my hand and takes me on drives? Sounds pretty swaggy to me! Also he ate a bird! Thats kinda wack!
Overall based on the info we have and everything he's said in his VD (assuming its to be trusted cause he does have that whole lying thing going on), I would personally go with inno. Like unless his sin was suicide baiting her, I don't entirely see how this could turn into a guilty situation. Definitely not on the same level as a lot of the other prisoners. (looking at how guilty mahiru should be but isn't getting)
Admin Venus: I'll summarize what I talked about in my theory, but honestly, I feel like Kazui didn't do all that much wrong. He seems like he just kinda let life go the way other people wanted it to go for him, and somewhere along the way he realized he really didn't enjoy it. At some point he got "greedy" and took steps to try to change that, but his wife probably committed suicide or possibly got into some kind of accident or something. Either way, that's what resulted in her death.
Between that and him being useful on defense from a meta standpoint, I'm not sure why I would vote him guilty. I wish we knew more though, I feel like both half and Cat were pretty sparse on details relating to the actual death of his wife. Like, I understand your situation, Kazui, tell me what actually happened!
Side note though, it's really interesting to me in the audio drama that he says he wants Es to find out his sin. In the first trial, I'd thought his MV was giving nothing because he was purposefully burying details to hide them from us. After hearing that line in the audio drama and seeing this MV, I feel more like Kazui's repressing his feelings on whatever his sin is so hard that even the MVs can't quite get at them.
(Also, the fact that we still haven't seen anyone who he's romantically involved with (other than his wife) adds to the theory that he's gay for me. A lot of other people (Shidou's wife, Mahiru's lover, etc.) have gotten relevant characters' faces revealed this time, and while we did get that for Kazui's wife, I feel like who he was with would've been revealed to us unless there was a specific reason to hide it (ex. he was with a man).)
Admin Mercury here. Uhhh I really got nothing on my mind but shitposts tbh. When listening to his VD, I really got the impression he was still lying or at least being overly dramatic like the theater kid he is. Especially in this part:
Tumblr media
(translation thanks to @/onigiriico) The way he delivers these lines seems so fake to me, but I realize this might just be personal bias talking. Idk yall, lemme know what you think ab his delivery in the comments below (PFFFT sorry)
Admin Neptune: I'm definitely team innocent. Although it seems like Kazui hurt his wife by not wanting to be married anymore, he tried to be a better person and stop lying to her. Unfortunately, according to him, this resulted in her death. It doesn't really seem like he did much wrong, especially compared with many of the other prisoners, and he helps keep the prisoners safe.
The part where his wife's image transforms into what is seemingly a man with an apple for a head (along with other parts such as the "I can't stop, I can't be normal") leads me to believe that he's gay. Assuming that the apple is supposed to represent something he feels is forbidden, this part could represent his desire to date/marry a man instead. I find it interesting that he sees this image through an alcoholic drink, and I feel like it represents something but I'm not completely clear on what.
Since Kazui says "I can't live unless I lie" as mentioned above in the VD, I wouldn't be surprised if he was still lying, but I do believe that he never actually cheated on his wife. I do wonder if he would consider "emotional cheating" infidelity, and it seems like the temptation might have been there when he says "it didn't even turn into infidelity."

(*・ω・)ノ hello! I was wondering if I could request lee Leo Need Kaito and ler Leo Need Len? I don’t have anything specific in mind but maybe teasing
Tickletober day 21: Teasing
Short comic by @anonyamogus (LOOK AT IT!!!)
OMG YES! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY MY WHOLE LIFE!
Lol but fr I've been wanting to write for L/N Kaito for a while so this is perfect~!
Anyone who requests Kaito is automatically my friend, now you're stuck with me forever/j :3
Btw, idk what L/N Len's personality is like so sorry if this isn't accurate. But I hope you enjoy it nonetheless! :D
Tumblr media
___________________________________________
Kaito x Len L/N sekai (platonic)
Lee: Kaito
Ler: Len
Warning: Tickles!
___________________________________________
Len was skipping through the hallways of the school sekai when he suddenly stopped in front of one of the classrooms. The rhythmic tune of a guitar echoed from the inside, he peaked his head in only to find Kaito practicing all by his lonesome. He went inside to get a closer look, maybe they could practice together. Although Kaito seemed to be sucked in his own little world as he didn't even acknowledge Len's presence.
"Hey, Kaito!" Len tried calling out to him but the blue haired vocaloid was too focused on his music to notice. "Oi, Kaito!!" the blonde gripped his hands onto Kaito's sides as he lightly shook him to get his attention, what he wasn't expecting was the ear-shattering shriek that came out of him.
"EEK!!" Kaito almost dropped his guitar as his cheeks quickly turned cherry red. He whipped his head over at Len, both silently starring at each other for a moment before Len spoke up again.
"What was that??" the smaller of the two asked in pure confusion.
"I-It was nothing..." Kaito tried adverting his gaze, his blush only growing stronger, but of course Len wasn't convinced.
"So you're telling me that this..." he gave Kaito's sides another squeeze, earning another shriek "is nothing??". Kaito only looked at him in fear as a teasy grin made it's way onto Len's lips...
.
.
.
How did Kaito get into this situation? One moment he was practicing his guitar calmly and now he was on the ground with a teasy Len on top of him tickling him to pieces.
"Why didn't you tell me that you're ticklish?! It's so cute~!" said the blonde as he scribbled all over the blue vocaloid's stomach.
"N-noho it's naHAHAT!!" poor Kaito would squeal and thrash around at each ticklish touch, and the teasing just made it ten times worse for him.
"But just look at that smile! You should really smile more, it suits you~" Len walked his fingers up Kaito's sides, enjoying the softer snickers that came out of the latter.
"Pfft! Ehehehehe!" Kaito instantly went to cover his flushed face behind his hands at the comment.
"Eyy, don't hide from mehe!" Len giggled along as he tried to pry Kaito's hands away from his face, but he was just oh so stubborn. The blonde then got the grand idea of tickling under his arms and as he expected it did the trick.
"GYAH! WAHAHAIT! NAHAHAT THEHEHERE!" Kaito squealed in laughter as his arms came crashing down. His fully red face and teary eyes in full display. And who could forget that smile that was more blinding than any star.
Len smiled in victory as he kept tormenting the overly ticklish spot "Wow, look at how ticklish you are here! You might be more ticklish than Rin~".
"ST-STAHAHAP SAHAHAYING THAHAT!!".
"Saying what? Ticklish~?" Len chuckled when a flustered squeal came out of Kaito. Who knew it would be so much fun to tease the poor blue vocaloid.
Kaito though that he was a goner, but his saving grace soon walked through the door.
"Is Kaito-san here-" it was none other than Ichika, who stopped dead in her tracks at the scene in front of her. The three of them just starred at each other for a while in silence until Ichika cleared her throat. "I didn't know Kaito-san could sound so loud" she said with a smile of her own before walking away, leaving the boys alone once more.
"That was embarrassing..." Kaito whined out as he once again covered his red face.
"Awe don't be like that" Len gave him a final poke to his tummy before getting off of him, earning a cute squeak "I think your laugh is pretty adorable~" the blonde smiled down at him before walking away, leaving a panting, flustered Kaito dead on the floor.
___________________________________________
I feel like this fic is all over the place, but I hope you still like it :3
Lee Kaito supremacy!!!

IDK what to ask about your half life OCs, but I love them!! I love seeing Half life OCs! I want to know everything about them!! But that might be a bit of a big ask lol. So for now- can I get some fun facts about em'?
sorry if I'm being weird, I just get really excited about this kinda stuff
ITS NOT WEIRD I’M SO HAPPY YOU ASKED :o) FEEL FREE TO ASK MORE QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here are so (potentially not) fun facts about my half life characters! (Warning for mentions of cannibalism)
Dr. Weber facts!!!!
He wasn’t at Black Mesa when the resonance cascade happened, he was at Aperture, specifically in a large abandoned testing building
He lived in Holland from the time he was born to the time he was ten years old. He’s fluent in both english and dutch
Despite his cold and rude demeanor along with his large stature and broad shoulders, he is a complete wimp and cannot physically fight at all. He is a million percent bark and zero percent bite. He is also comically clumsy
Unlike his darling field commander counterpart (barney), he hates drinking and rarely drinks
Often he gets so into the zone with his work, like restoring the HEV suit for example, that he neglects his other duties as a communications officer for the rebels.
Alyx and Barney are the two people he can tolerate being around, Barney less so since they both frequently have petty arguments. Being around other scientists like Eli and Kleiner (and probably also Gordon) make him nervous due to his lower status compared to them. (He greatly admires them though)
Tbh he’s just so bitter because he wants to be liked and admired as a “great scientist” but he’s just a rude person for the most part. (In hl1 he shared the same sentiment but he was much kinder and kinda overly-friendly to the point he was obnoxious)
Linda (Dr. Perez) facts!!!
Basically was a child prodigy. She skipped grades.
Where Weber worked on stuff like the HEV suit at black mesa, Linda worked on the “anti-mass spectrometer” thing.
Also was at Aperture during the time of the resonance cascade
Based her design on one of the scientist in the hl2 science team picture
A higher ranking black mesa scientist 
Dr. Weber ate her corpse.
Troy facts!!!
Security guard in black mesa
One of the few people who were kind to Weber in Hl1
Also was at Aperture during the time of the resonance cascade 2x
Did NOT know what he was doing as a security guard. He is very goofy.
Dean's younger brother
Guys he's straight. I know he looks gay but he isn’t! 
Ginger!!!
Dr. Weber ate his corpse.
Mason facts!!!
A very young rebel compared to most, he was two at the time of the resonance cascade 
Assigned as a medic but has NO clue what he’s doing
Very clumsy / accident prone
Tries to seem cool…(He isn’t. he’s chill though)
Thinks Alyx is SO cool……. Wants to talk to her so bad
Likes to draw
Dean facts!!!
I based him on a talking heads song…. (life during wartime)
Before the combine invasion was in the military and fought in the 7 hour war
Troy's older brother
Kind of like soldier tf2 but less crazy
MEAT RIDES ANY IMPORTANT WARFRONT FIGURE ON THE REBELLION SIDE. PROBABLY PRAISES BARNEY AND ODESSA A STRANGE AMOUNT.

So, I've asked around a lot, and it seems like not a single professor on here is willing to help me make heads or tails of my Marshadow… Which I suspect is due to them not wanting to risk their professional reputation on a pokemon thought to not even exist just a few months ago.
I figured since you're a student, you'd subscribe to no such amounts of caution. (I'm also getting a bit desperate)
Basically, I'd like a bit of an analysis of my Marshadow, if you can manage that. I need to know what makes it tick, and specific needs that go beyond those of normal ghost type Pokemon, as it's far from normal (even though I personally don't consider it an actual Mythical, just rare).
If not, I'll look elsewhere. Again. But thanks for your time.
P.s. I'll send in samples if you need them for testing or something, idk, I'm not a doctor. But the little guy(?) drools, sheds, and isn't potty trained yet so it should be easy to get samples from it.
Hello! I'd love to answer this! I've never cared or seen a marshadow in real life, and I'd love for you to send me samples of its DNA! If you can, just mail it to Uva-Naranja academy! But since I don't know much about its DNA and how it's body works, this will mostly talk about behavior.
(I may or may not have gotten the info from the science part of the black market, but that's not important)
(Also tell those professors to grow up. You can't be right about everything; the whole point of science to is to build on to what you already may or may not know)
Marshadow
Tumblr media
(Art by Pixiv)
Marshadow is a "mythical" pokemon native to the Alola region. They're fighting/ghost type, which is a really unique and rare typing!
It's thought that this pokemon was a myth, until a scientist in Alola discovered it in the flesh. The reason it took so long to find these pokemon is because they hid in the shadows for so long. It saw pokemon fighting and practiced their fighting techniques, making them excellent in combat. They also do a lot of shadow boxing, do don't mind it if it starts punching the air for no reason.
Tumblr media
They seem to be extremely shy, as they've hid in the shadows for so long. Your marshadow might dissappear for a couple of days because it's hiding somewhere, or it might even be your shadow. Who knows.
Zenith Marshadow
Tumblr media
When angered or in, marshadow goes into a Zenith Form. It becomes a lot more powerful and dangerous in this form.
Care
This part is mostly for the asker.
Your marshadow seems young. He isn't potty trained, right? I suggest getting him a litter box, or something similar. Let him no that that's where it's supposed to do it's business, and reward then when they don't have an accident. Imagine it's like raising a child basically.
You could teach it how to use the toilet. I just suggested litterbox since it'll instinctively know that it's supposed to cover it, and it'll be less weird.
I'd suggest keeping it out of overly sunny or bright areas, as well as populated areas. Due to how shy they are, places with a lot of people and pokemon can make them feel overwhelmed and panicky. Too much sun can harm its eyes, and at noon, the shadows will be smaller, and it might not have anywhere good to hide.
They can eat, but not as often as other pokemon. Feeding it once a week should be enough.
I don't know what will tick off your marshadow personally. This is really all the info I have on it right now. But I'd be happy for you to tell me any new things you figure out. Best of luck to caring for it!

Overly Long Look At This Blog
Who Am I
Cecilia/Lia, tbh I don’t care much what you call me except for variations of CC (please don’t)
Prefer they/them pronouns but any are okay
Pisces Sun, Aquarius Moon, Virgo Rising
Not a new to witchcraft, just new to talking about it on the internet (long time lurker tho)
Not Wiccan
Tbh I don’t really have a name for what I am so I use some different ones kinda randomly
I literally live in a cabin in (actually next to) the woods and I take my position as weird witchy woods person very seriously
I live in the Missouri Ozarks (in the foothills) and I like to connect my craft to that
Also some limited pantheon/deity stuff, mostly Roman and Germanic/Norse, but more as like…a face for greater things than an actual 1:1 experience
Unfortunately culturally Christian, and while my craft mostly avoids that unless it’s folk stuff or research stuff, I can’t deny that it probably influences/biases me in some areas so…yeah (I grew up Methodist and also have very mixed feelings about the denomination specifically, but this isn’t the time to get into that)
I also don’t like saying what “type” of witch I am per se, but I do like to categorize the different types of magic/work that I do and I think that makes things easier for tags
Some variation of an animist
I’m an adult and I have a tendency to be pretty blunt about what’s going on in my life and that might sometimes include adult stuff (not in like a porn way, just in a very open way) and also curse a lot so uh yeah idk just if occasional batshit posts about sexuality/substances/taxes/whatever are going to bother you then you might skip along idk
Weird self development bs while I try and become a more functional human being
What Is This Blog
Primarily a place to have ideas and inspiration written out as well as progress of stuff I’m working on
Maybe eventually mini tarot reading because I’m working on building that up but idk yet
Probably some writing stuff, though it’ll be largely related to nonfiction/magical writing
Probably a lot of aesthetic reblogs
Probably a lot of reblogs in general tbh
Probably gardening/plant stuff
Maybe some recipes/spells that I’m working on just to have them concentrated in one spot
Lots of divination in general tbh
Some astrology stuff/magical timing stuff
Folklore/Fairytales/Cryptids/etc (these aren’t all the same I just have too many bullet points already)
Elemental stuff
Probably some fiber arts
Weird personal beliefs about different things (will be tagged appropriately)
Probably some queer shit idk
Maybe some occasional art, we’ll see
Uhhh
As a general rule I don’t think DNI’s work super well and will probably just block people I don’t like but I’ll just cover the bases of racists/homophobes/sexists/transphobes/you get the gist
Other than that just don’t interact if you’re from northern missouri and we’ll be all good (/j)
That’s a giant wall of text but that’s about it. Always down for messages and asks and what have you
Mostly here to make some friends right now ig

for your ask game, 🌻 and ✨ pretty please <3
» 🌻 what makes you want to give up on writing? what makes you keep going?
Fandom fuckery always makes me wanna dip just because it annoys me lmao. like there are so many things about the reader insert side of Tumblr that infuriate me to no end. Like I cannot with writers being overly sensitive and taking a critical statement about writing in general, and getting butthurt because their ego makes them think the post is specifically about them. I see posts that can 100% be applied to my writing and I'm like "okay whatever."
like idk even if someone is vagueposting you under the guise of it being "general criticism".... just block them. move on. keep on keepin on or whatever.
but that's only in a fandom scope. nothing will ever make me stop writing. I might stop writing fics, but I will be writing poetry until I am a rotting corpse.
What keeps me going though is just the act itself, the routine it can provide. I majored in English with a emphasis in creative writing so this shit is like my lifeblood and I thoroughly enjoy writing even if it hurts my feelings. OH AND the support from my friends also helps a lot. Writing is such a lonely act; I really appreciate how fandom writing subverts that isolation for the most part.
» ✨ What's a fic you've posted you wish you could breathe life into again and have people talking about it? (or simply a fic you wish got more credit)
AN ANGEL STANDING IN THE SUN.
I'm so pissed it got a community label. like ah great, now no one will discover my magnum opus /hj... but seriously. I love that fic. I'm still so proud of it.
