tumblr users all of a sudden: oh yeah this website is SO good for art hehehe it’s waaayyyy better than twitter it’s so supportive of artists we love art so much here uwu art for the win!! ✨ 😘 💕 😋✨ artists who have spent the last 4+ years on their hands and knees begging people to reblog their art just to be ignored every single time because half this website acts like their nuts will be ripped off with the claw end of a hammer if they reblog a single drawing:

#jem blogs #i'm gonna get shit for this but i think it genuinely needs to be said #YES function-wise tumblr has definitely proven to be best for artists #but people suddenly acting like they support artists when they've been refusing to reblog our art for years - #despite knowing it's the only way for our art to get traction? #- that's some Bullshit™ #anyway thanks and love to all my mutuals who always make sure to reblog my art you've kept me going for so long ♥ #everyone else START REBLOGGING ART OR SIT DOWN

WAIT I WANNA BRING UP ANOTHER THING ABOUT HOW BULLYING IS ADDRESSED IN NERDY PRUDES MUST DIE. one thing I really liked about how Max is shown as a bully is his talk with Pete at the Pasqualli's parking lot. When Pete tries to stand up to Max, Max pushes him down and emphasizes that Pete isn't a loser because of his own qualities - rather, Pete is a loser because Max simply said so.

Of course we can attribute this to Max's god complex but I think that this point in particular is less than often really brought up in teen-centered media featuring bullying: that bullying exists not because of nerdy behavior or whatever the fuck, but because bullies will it into being. And to have a BULLY of all people say that out loud - to have the main villain point out the root of their behavior without showing any kind of shame whatsoever - showcases just how much of a menace Max is.

#like max is really fuckin self aware throughout the show #he knows he's the biggest prick alive and he revels in his jackassery #to the point of pointing out the core problem of bullying itself: people are bullied because people are bullies. simple as that #like its a good message to hammer down in the bullying problem of the show while also showing how far gone Max is with his delusion of power #so um yea #oki at this point it's kinda obvious that my favorite character in the show is max jagerman like writing wise #dude's portrayed as an irredeemable literal monster and the show doesnt shy away from the fact that the dude isnt getting any redemption arc #and yet there are nuances to him being overzealous with his power both in life and in the afterlife #SO YEA STARKID DID A GREAT JOB IN WRITING MAX LIKE DAMN #starkid #nerdy prudes must die #npmd #npmd spoilers

Aaand he got hurt again 💔. The usual.

#scott pilgrims precious little life #scott pilgrim vs the world #spvtw #spto #scott pilgrim #wallace wells #lisa miller #scollace #kim pine #natalie adams #envy adams #don't rlly know if I like how this turned out but oh well;;; #hope its obvious that this is based on the song “Scott Pilgrim” which the creation the comics were inspired from #the lyrics always make me think of Wallace and Lisa's feelings for Scott every time I hear it #ofc you could also relate it to Kim especially since the singers voice kind of reminds me of her #but overall the lyrics fit these two much better since Scott never truly “saw them that way” despite how long they've liked him #and they always seem happier to see him compared to Kim #Im surprised tho that I havent yet seen anyone draw these two together now that their dialogue parallels have been acknowledged more lately #also tho I wish more people pointed out that they both got cucked by red heads LOL #and Kim and Envy actually do look really similar when scott first meets them #makes me wonder if Scott subconsciously went for Envy since she reminded him of Kim (which would be fitting given that you could argue that #Envy dated Scott because he reminded her of Todd. Since he and Scott are confirmed to be meant to be seen as similar to one another #so much so that even their first and last names rhyme #last thing I'll add tho is that while Wallace and Lisa are very similar even personality wise #the one big difference is that despite that whole conclusion on vol4 of Scott not cheating on Ramona with Lisa because he loves her #the writers apparently think it would be “organically correct” for him to have an affair with wallace LMAO #but I guess we shouldn't be surprised since Wallace and Ramona are both in the front of the official valentines art which is clearly #a deptiction of Scotts wet dream or smth (oh and you could also argue that Wallace and Lisa parallel on that art since they're both #shirtless with white socks.. which could be a reference to how lisa wears skimpy clothes for Scott and Wallace often only wears boxers #to like sexually frustrate Scott for fun or smth

Respectfully, anyone who believes that Roxas shouldn't have come back in kh3 is wrong and also doesn't know how to make a satisfying end to a characters narrative.

I could maybe forgive thinking Naminé or Xion shouldn't have returned, as they at least got to make the informed decision to return to their counterparts themselves. It would still be wrong but I can at least forgive it.

But Roxas? His entire story is about being allowed to be yourself regardless of what anyone else around you says you should be. It doesn't/shouldn't matter if he comes from Sora, because he is someone else entirely. It's his life, not Sora or anyone elses. Having a story like that end with him being violently forced to return to Sora when he doesn't even know anything about what's going on is flat out bad writing.

Did he accept that he had to die for Sora? Well, sure, but only after getting to beat him within an inch of his life. Only reason he accepts it is because he literally has no other choice but to. He can't keep clinging to the anger and misery at his circumstances forever.

And, you know, it probably helps that the person this was all for also fucking hates it. In no way is Sora happy about what happened to Roxas. Of course he'd bring him back, it's Sora. The situation is so unfair and tragic that having it end with him just staying in Sora forever would literally go against the essence of the entire series.

Kingdom Hearts is, at it's core, a series about bonds. Roxas was established basically immediately as having very important bonds! His best friend literally died for him! He has friends that don't even know it because it was another version of them, but they still feel that bond to him anyway! You really think they should've just thrown away a character whose bonds transcended the boundaries between data and reality just like that? Get real.

#sorry not sorry but roxas' narrative is genuinely so important and it baffles me that there are people who genuinely think he shouldnt have #come back in kh3 #like dude do you just hate satisfying happy endings or what? #the ending that roxas got in kh2 is terrible #his entire everything in kh2 is terrible actually #the only one involved in that situation thats on his side (aside from axel but hes not counted) #is also the only one who couldnt do anything until it was too late #and like. in ddd roxas outright says that the reason he could be okay with this #is because its sora specifically #because sora *wouldnt* be okay with it #because hed actually care to do something to fix it #ansem the wise also says exactly that! #that the reason roxas could exist seperately to begin with is bc of soras love for other people!!!!!! #im rambling again but whatever. sometimes people have such astronomically bad takes that it astounds me #roxas #sora #kingdom hearts #kingdom hearts 2 #kh #kh2 #xander rambles

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance - Braig / Xigbar

#kingdom hearts dream drop distance #khddd #braig #xigbar #my gif #his pointy shoulders deflated with age #...do you ever wonder about his scarf? #radiant garden took pride in its beauty and ansem the wise was a ruler who was beloved and admired by his people (despite... yknow) #so is it safe to assume that being a guard of this world being tasked with protecting the castle/its ruler/and the townspeople- #would be considered a prestigious occupation? #yet we see braig wearing an old tattered scarf #it's a curious addition to his uniform that looks out of place among other guards #i dont think it was added to his design to help him stand out because cmon it's not like he's competing for relevance with dilan and aeleus #braig fights from afar with his guns it's not like he's some scrappy guy that might have messy clothes from battle #i wouldn't be surprised if this was ephemer's scarf that he somehow came into possession of #and is holding onto it with the possibly of it being used as some kind of medium/waypoint #who's to say he's not still wearing it under his organization coat? just because we can't see it anymore doesn't mean it's gone #riku had an entirely different outfit under his own organization coat so who knows what xigbar has under there #i like to think braig used to be scolded for wearing the scarf because it covers up the uniform's emblem #and wearing old ripped articles of clothing isn't part of the image the guards would presumably have to uphold #but eventually they gave up on making him take it off because he just does whatever he wants #just something i think about from time to time #xigbar has always been so mysterious and cryptic i can't help but keep an extra close eye on him #especially since he's been revealed to be so much more than what he seems. who knows what tricks he has up his sleeve #i don't think it's outside the realm of possibility

whenever i think of how nikki's personality has changed from her first game to her latest i get so emotional.. bring back silly lazy genki girl nik </3

#they grow up so fast #shining nikki #nikki up2u #shining nikki fanart #nikki #my art #going thru an incomprehensible number of time loops will change you fr #not to be a momo sympathizer but i imagine one day he woke up and she was suddenly so patient and mature. lost all her airheadedness #had no interest in her usual hobbies. and he never figured out why while she was on time loop. number 100 or something #like yes nikki’s lacking in personality because she’s the mc and it makes for a more immersive story but HC WISE after trying so many times #and experiencing the same thing over and over again u probably stop trying a bit and start observing #just smiling and nodding #WHENEVER u go visit her house in sn and shes dicking around eating chips and practicing her dance routine or whatever THAT is nikki #not bending over backwards to help people or thinking of her next move.. shes spiritually never taken off her goofy rubber boots ok #shes just a lil different now. because of the time traveling #and the death

The question I will always have is how is ccFit so impressively good at gay roleplay, like he’s genuinely amazing. Not even just with the romance part but specifically him being gay, and learning to accept that openly.

#qsmp #Fitmc #qsmp fit #I didn’t even realize that was an acting talent you could have #Like mcrp wise I would struggle to think of someone so good at including the gay people (like there is but I’d have to think)

Taking a snooze.

I don't know how often I'll do this though. #As I was making my little sona cut out I realized I had the power to make a dream come true. #The dream to make tiny mdzs characters snooze in a flower. For *real* this time. #So now we have little Wangxian having a little fairy nap!!! #They are quite literally thumbprint sized (actually a bit smaller) and I adore them immensely. #These flowers are also zinnias! Not sure of the exact subspecies name though. #I have few variations and a high quality version but I think this one is the best. #My favourite one position wise is sadly botched by my friend's iphone doing some wild automatic adjustments. #aka: it made the cutouts *SO BLUE* and Super Low Contrast.

My only defense of conceptual follower Benny is that he was a warrior nomad and a raider, that still has it in him if we take the All Roads comic into consideration, and how he is not like a real dainty soft hand city slicker, cause it’s mostly an act.

So in scenarios where he is forced to travel with the Courier I 100% think he’d be like “What do ya mean you can’t scale a mountain, pussycat? Watch how the pros do it.” And then you see him scuttle up a cliff face scarily fast only to have to save him when he bumps into a Cazador nest.

#reminder his ability stat is 6 and strength 7 so this guys moderately good at physical stuff #like in all realness military and raiders would have lower charisma and intelligence in fallout cause they may know basic stuff it’ would #usually only be for survival #cause what’s interesting about the tribes is that they are all raiders and copycats like yes they can be representative of indigenous tribe #of the wasteland it not of the culture of irl indigenous people as the game makes it clear they are just copying behavior they have heard #read or are just justifying their violent behavior cause the khans like literally read a book on the mongols and said we could bastardize #this and it’s not pointed out enough but it fits the themes of people misinterpreting the past #but back to Benny he’s like weirdly capable and I hate it but it is fascinating #he’d just be complaining other wise and then violently stab something and be like I kinda miss the old days #and then say ring a ding ding or some shit #courier six #the courier #Benny fnv #fallout new vegas #benny gecko #fallout #fnv #courier fnv

Shoutout to adorable, dorky, yellow nerds with spiked heads and glasses and an obsession with human media and a drive to make their favorite characters become real and a tendency to screw up badly and then sweep all their worst mistakes under the rug rather than come clean or make amends.

Gotta be one of my favorite Undertale tropes.

#alphys #undertale #starlo #undertale yellow #my screencaps #people keep comparing him to undyne #and like battle-wise yeah sure #and he's the sheriff while undyne's a royal guard captain #so yeah #still working on character analyses btw #feel like i can't do a proper job until i finish neutral and geno #but #like #man #COME ON!!! #the similarity between him and alphys is so OBVIOUS! #WHY DO YOU THINK A PART OF THE HOTLAND THEME PLAYS IN SHOWDOWN??? #IT'S A REFERENCE TO ALPHYS!!! #he even has the same number of spikes on his head #and he was wearing braces in the pic of him and ceroba as kids #THAT CAN ONLY MEAN HE WOULDA BEEN AS BUCK-TOOTHED AS ALPHYS WITHOUT 'EM #he's actually a mashup of both alphys AND undyne that's why he's yellow but has blue-tipped spikes #this was supposed to go in my queue but i can't bear the suspense i needa know what people say about this right now
