OH ARTHUR BENNETT.. such a gorgeous and intriguing character. terribly burdened by a GRUESOME set of crimes, his light suffocated by a HEAVY century of GUILT. so tragic, so dark and broody, and yet PAINFULLY awkward in any social setting ever

#jrwi fanart #cw blood #jrwi show #jrwi suckening #arthur bennett #OUHH THIS ONE WAS SITTING IN MY WIPS FOR SO LOOOONGwhen i took it out there was mould on it :sob: #BUT i think i was able to fix it up okay #i keep seeing SO MANY MISTAKES RRAAAHHH BUT YOU DONT SEE THEM RIGHT?? THATS ONLY ME. RIGHT?? EXACTLY. #THE KEY IS TO SAY. AND REPEAT AFTER ME. 'FUUUCK IT WE BALL #so anyway. arthur bennett huh? grizzly says that arthur is reaal fuckin difficult to play. and i SUPER get that. i mean LOOK AT HIM.. #grizz often needs a minute to think abt what hes gonna say in a way that matches w that Stoic Personality. which is FAIR but also that #ends up making way for awkward confrontations like: the lady in the parky lot. he took too long to answer and scared her away.& I LOVE THAT #arthur is tragic and sad and cool and stoic but hes ALSO awkward and silly and kinda dumb and short sighted. HE HAS COMPLEXITIES #I LOVE WHEN TTRPG CHARACTERS HAVE A GOOD SET OF SHORTCOMINGS. ESPECIALLY WHEN U FIND THEM ONLY AS U PLAY THEM. #I COULd go on and on saying the same things w different words abt arthurs intriguing and entertaining character but i shall spare u. for no #ILL ALSO MENTION HOW MUCH I LOVE HIS FLAVOR THO.. I LOVE TALL HOT BOY WHOS ONE W THE DARKNESS.. I REMEMBER WHEN HE FIRST MENTIONED THE #BADLUCK. N I WAS LIKE OOOHH THATS WHY HIS DESIGN IS SO COOL N CHAOTIC N ASYMMETRICAL. HES UNLUCKY!!! i love love love his design so much... #GRaaauruguguraguhhghghgh what else what else is there for me to spew on abt...i think im reachin a limit here..OH MAGNUS. i hope that #we get to know more abt how magnus and arthur met.. like How they became besties... ouuhh... I ALSO WANNA KNOW MORE ABT MARY DAVIS. LIKEHOW #he also apparently spent alotta time in a zone dominated by edward twilight? all he remembers is constant partying? I WANNA KNOW MORE.. #i think i got room 4 one more ramble SO. THE ART PIECE.as i said its gone a lil stale BUT. im still very proud o the bits where hes allScar #I WANNA SEE HIM GET SCARYMORE. I like the idea of shadows solidifying to make him strange and eerie.like TEETH n CLAWS n SPINES n YESS #also the SILVER EYES.no1 does silver eyes like the show Claymore. they make em look so striking and eerie...i also like to think that #human arthur had deep beautiful brown eyes.just in my beaitufl heart.i mean look at him..i wanna cook him n eat him.ANYWAY #i think thats all my ramblin for this piece. now i gotta go cancel a single day i had ata hotel bc my work schedule change last minute FUCK #feel free to ramble in my tags aswell tho i read all of them and i chew on thenm and i love them so sos os mcuh

Can’t choose my fav hilarious moment from the Daily Fail. Saying they tied the knot in 2019? Calling AL a Sandman Star? Acting like she’s the famous one not Michael? Putting her in a white dress? The comments roasting everything? The amount of money and effort the PR is putting into this now? How obvious what they’re doing is? And same with promoting GT as hard as possible too.

I hope this PR succeeds and they actually get jobs and we can move on to the next stage.

#NightGoodOmens talks PR #dudes putting all this effort into being set free is kinda hilarious kinda sad #crossing my fingers for you boys

summer 1985, hawkins.

byler week 2023 | day iv: summer love song used

#byler #bylerweek2023 #Day 4 Summer Love #byler edit #byler gifs #mine #mine:gif #to get a more summer-esque vibe you should listen to the song! #creative process: i never have a creative process when it comes to gifsets. i tend to start my infamous laptop and run photoshop and see #what comes out of it. this time i really wanted to put some extra effort. when i make a gifset the first thing is finding out the vibes #i want to give to it. since it's summer love i wanted to have bright warm colors that recall summertime and i decided to use of course #footages from S3 - since it's the only season set in summertime - but of course it wouldn't be a gifset of mine if i didn't add a “gloomy” #vibe to it. that is why i spent an entire afternoon finding out a song that would give me summertime sadness kinda vibes and i found #“free with you” which is an incredible song with an incredible mv that i ofc linked in the post description. so #this gifset is all about summer love and it's meant to make you feel the love; the summer vibes; but at the same time i wanted it to be #a little angsty because 1st that's what S3 is about and 2nd - this is how i picture summer loves #i love to put this dualtity in my gifsets: vibrant colors and a really melancholic undertone that you can perceive just if you look twice

my list of pretentious art critic media that changedddd my brain chemistry like actually.

- the beginners guide

- its such a beautiful day

- the stanley parable (AND the demo.)

- swiss army man

- presentable liberty

- fight club

#and more. that i forget bc my memory sucks #ohhhh stanley parabel demo save me…… #not even a contest. even tho its funny #ummm. best to quickly get into is tsp demo. its free and like 15 mins #and honestly yeah for me its as good as the full game #w the nature of tsp as a game the demo is completely different to the full version #different themes different setting. and not multiple paths #but ohhhhh my god its so so good. #if you do one thing for me ever pplssss pls play tsp demo. #rlly funny AND makes me cry. IN 15 MINS #tbg i wld rec to anyone who considers themself a creative of any sort #speaks so well to the experience of posting art online #swiss army man is REALLY weird. so i wldnt rec it to most ppl but it is super interesting #i rlly love the trans allegory interpretation.. #fight club is like the most basic on this list but i like it. and its vaguely conplicated and Themey so it belongs #PRESENTABLE LIBERTY…. i have never even actually played #super artsy tho lol. ur stuck in a jail cell the whole game and get letters that tell u abt the world dying off from a plague (n capitalism) #hits very different after covid but its superrrr super good. CRAZY boring but its the point. lol #oh yeah thr actually stanley parable. one of my favs of all time. EVER #rlly funny. but also crazy fucking sad #the relationship between stanley and the narrator is super interesting and it makes me sad theres not more exploration of it in fandom outsi #outside shipping #in terms of ending a few of my favs r explosion.. phone #uhhh. space. and of course confusion #in terms of ultra deluxe i REALLY love the 2 endings. rlly dont like all the bucket endings #i think some are fun but it feels a little bit of a mean trick. promising so many more endings and then them all being just alt versions of #oh by 2 endings i mean the epilogue LOL. its been a while. but yeah all that shit was STELLARRR esp the skip button room #i cld make a whole post on my tspud thoughts. but yeah. i still prefer the original by far but the sequel/epilogue stuff is awesome #UM. think i deleted the tags for space isabd is sooo good but so draining. rlly rlly rough watch but so good. makes me bawl

[Panel 1] Prismo: ...It wouldn’t have stopped you from trying.

[Panel 2] Prismo: Would it?

[Panel 3] Simon: I don’t know. Maybe.

[Panel 4] Prismo: Simon.

[Panel 5] Prismo: You can’t fool me on this one. Why else would you come to me? To look for her.

[Panel 6] Simon: ... You couldn’t, so I had to.

[Panel 7] Prismo: •sigh• ...Look, you’re right. I should’ve told you.

[Panel 8] Prismo: I’ve just been really...distracted. Simon: Hah.

[Panel 9] Simon: Was years of my no-longer-immortal life not enough for you?

[Panel 10] Prismo: C’mon, man, you know why. Simon: Hmph.

[Panel 12] Simon: You still have to make this right. Prismo: Yeah, I’m working on that.

#Doodles #Adventure Time #Fionna and Cake #Prismo #Simon Petrikov #Get his ass Simon #And Prismo for that matter lol - neither of you are free of sin! You're both culpable! The situation proves it! #It's mostly on Prismo of course but it's not like Simon is Completely innocent haha #His attitude is entirely warranted tho you're slipping Prismo get it together #He needs more friends #As does Simon! They're both just tired hurt people who are tied together by mistakes and misintentions #I do love Prismo turning it back on him and The Guilt™ sets in for Simon haha #He knows he was doing something bad! But how's he supposed to keep going if not? #This was a forgone conclusion but that doesn't make it any easier for either of them! #Simon is doubly sore at being forgotten for so long now that he's fully human again #Deemed unimportant! Ouch #It's not that it wasn't important it's just all the everything - being locked out and then falling into his own grief #They're both sad! It's a bad situation for everyone #Prismo's mostly giving lip service - telling him wouldn't have actually fixed anything #Maybe he could've sent him on a quest but hmm! Fionna and Cake is the way the cookie crumbles #He gets to go on his quest eventually :) They'll both make it as right as they can

Hello!! I saw your post about the game you're making - it sounded fascinating, and out of curiousity about a genre I don't know much about I got into a visual novel/dating sim related rabbit hole.

If you don't mind my asking, do you have any recommendations? VN or datesims or both! or any adjacents too.

(thank you, and good luck with the game!!)

YIPPEE!!!

i'm a huge fan of it gets so lonely here because it does a lot of cool things with the narration and multiple playthroughs. her tears were my light does similar things with the multiple playthrough thing and it was the first visual novel to really open my eyes to what the genre could be like! and because apparently today is horror yuri day i will add liar liar and liar liar 2. the artstyle is very cute! and there's blood!

for less horror yuri and more dating sim, i am currently completely obsessed with tokimeki memorial girls side 1-3, the dating sim/visual novel/stat-raising hybrid that inspired a lot of otome games—— and for good reason, too, because it's JUST THAT GOOD. i almost exploded something trying to play the fourth game but i will not let that stop me

in pure visual novel, i have to recommend heartbaked, it was one of those games i played in my free visual novel frenzy when i was younger and it really stuck with me! i still think about the radley ending.

i adore adore adore pacthesis games and i would love to direct you to my number one favourite and inspiration, number days sim date, because the intertwining of plot and romance and friendship was wonderful. xolga and mr toko is more point and click but check those out too

i love you was REALLY GOOD and i adored it. if you want proactive women and blushing boys this is the game for you! kill them with blushing right now

senpai please look at me was good!!! i love it! absolutely worth sticking around for all the bonuses! very short and sweet and you will love it

sweetest valentine is a game. in a genre called :). if you don't know what :) means don't worry about it!

play yuki 4p for lesbians and its sequel, scheme, for even more dumb lesbians. i am absolutely begging you to click those links because the names are too long for me to type out and i don't know if googling lesbians scheme will bring you to the masterpiece properly

hermes and gry is REALLY FUNNY but also one of those games that opened my mind to how complex the ren'py system could be. you made a map, a constantly-updated journal, an inventory, and the best damn ending ever? i was screaming when all my evil schemes came together. absolutely 10/10 worth it if the creator wants my liver i'd hand it over

hot coffee is SO SO SO good that i ended up reaching out to the creator just to praise it so much please play it please i'm on my knees please

speaking of games i am begging you to play

absolutely play i want to pursue the mean side character and my sweet zombie!!!! tsun is a great artist and the stories are good and you have to have to have to have to play okay!!! tsun is also making i just want to be single which is so so so cool the game of the year every year and it hasn't been released yet and you need to become. a fan okay because aro pride is right now

#thank you anon it really was delightful to hear that you liked my game even before it was released! #i wanted to recommend no-good noelle but. apparently the creator just went offline?? sad #there was also our life beginnings and always which is very acclaimed and i loved the demo #but i haven't finished the full game so i don't want to recommend something i didn't finish #xoxo droplets is also good but it's half free half paid and i was focusing more on free stuff that is underrated #(p)lanets and heartstring bugs are also games i played years ago that i'm fond of #but like in a nostalgia kind of way. #it was absolutely wild to play tokimeki memorial girls side and realize that heartstring bugs was so heavily based off it tho #like it wasn't copying characters or settings but the stat raising and events and clothing system were all drawn from it #special shout out to corrine cross' dead and breakfast which isn't a visual novel or a dating sim #i just like it #i also need to clarify that her tears were my light is not like HORROR horror but like. existential gay nightmare kinda deal

[widevibratobitch]

i hate my uni sm lol i dont want to be heeeeere let me out let me out

#motherfucking dance classes. we have the exam in two weeks and the choreography's not ready. #we gotta meet up in our own free time without the professor and practise on our own and try out if something works or doesnt. on. our. own. #bitch like what are you getting paid for lol #i hate it here so much i didnt come here to dance #and i leave every rehearsal on the verge of a panic attack and with red welts down my arms from scratching myself to calm tf down lol #(ask me again why i became obsessed with the white haired beautiful princess with a disorder in record time lol I GET HIM) #its fucking mental torture to me lol #anyway now im getting passive aggressive comments in the groupchat because they suddenly decided that we need to meet #for another rehearsal. today in two hours. like bitch????? sorry that i have earlier plans?????? #i gently suggested that we should try to set the rehearsal plans earlier #and i even put a sad emoji at the end to show that im not trying to be a bitch lol #and now a girl im like actually friends with goes all 'thank you for your input jagoda im waiting for you to suggest something better' like #girl?????????? lol #but like it's whatever. apologised immediately ofc like why bother #anyway BASTA

[alsojnpie]

it takes so fucking little to trigger the most despairing rejected feelings inside me. this is so lame

#i used to get around this by never interacting with anyone for any reason #that is still my default state but I'm fighting it #but fighting it means i have those feelings and having those feelings makes me rip myself apart emotionally #unless i work really hard to not do that which is so annoying #when if i had just avoided everyone in the first place i wouldn't have to deal with it #that's part of what makes having an imaginary friend so meaningful to me..... #have you ever heard that song 'I'm glad you're evil too'. for stupid sad wet people like me it's really really everything #just to share love with one person #but that's why i hate that i can still be affected like this because i know exactly how little it really matters and still i can't stop it #in times like this normally i would just go run for an hour bc it's impossible to be sad during and after a good run but i can't today :( #so instead I'll set my feelings free here. sorry for existing in front of you

"You'll never drown if you keep swimming.." very nice words to hear after the stressful ordeal of making a deal with the devil!

I know we have an expiration date

But when I was crying with laughter

And looked at you and world stopped

I wanted you to stay forever

I would marry you if you asked

I never wanted us to end

Neither did you

But you still have to find yourself

Some say love is like a bird

So I'll let you go

Because I love you too much to keep you caged

Even if it means I'm loosing you

Maybe we'll bump into each other while flying around

Unrelated but I was thinking about Koschei for reasons (I was reading about proto indo European pantheon and it turns out 'Fire God formed in water' is a myth researchers think they mightve had and it remonded me of Vassa) and am I allowed to say how funny it is that like, Koschei is so directly named after a myth. Like Bone Carvers his own thing and Stryga is technically got like The Three Fates/The Witch in Hansel and Gretel vibes, and then there's Koschei who is basically just the guy from the myth including the title. ALSO protoindoeuropean pantheon speculation is dope BTW you should research it its fascinating

Bold of you to assume I haven’t already researched it. I fucking loved anything protoindoeuropean as a kid, the folklore FUCKS

Anyways, personally I would’ve loved it if SJM combined Lanthys and Koschei together into one character. I think (no shade to ACOSF and it’s enthusiasts) instead of the rehab/whatever plot we got, we could’ve gotten to see a little brief corruption arc w Nesta and Koschei

Cuz like imagine a story where this deathless death god found out about cauldrongate and was like psychologically manipulating Nesta into gathering all of the troves (his soul bits) so that she could 1) become his queen/weapon, 2) make him all powerful, and 3) become a literal shield for him because the gang would have to kill her to kill him

(gonna unprofessionally ramble in the tags because I need to brainstorm about this lol)

#this probably sucks ass but I genuinely love the Koschei the Deathless myths sauuur much #like how fucking dare you throw him in there casually #anyways I need to work out the wrinkles in this hmmm #I know I’m bomb at pitching stories but there’s stuff missing and I need to work it out yknow #but yeah drop the mortal queen who’s evil thing cuz honestly who gives a fuck #also no shade to the rehab thing it was v relatable but also clearly a background for super sex #it could’ve been set up in the christmas special too #like oooo look something’s weird with nesta what could it be #and then also instead of there being too much free time for cassian to come off as an asshole #maybe he’s like trying to get thru to her or something #maybe it could be a literal retelling of the koschei story where the guy fucks his ass up for his lover #yeah that’s good see I just need to brainstorm in live time #sjm critical #THIS ISNT ABOUT HER I SWEAR IM JUST PITCHING #also also you could tie in nesta’s grooming for grooming #like in a sick way this is what she was raised to do #her wacky grandmother who def existed to make her story more sad laid the foundation for this #and now she has to like break that cycle and reaffirm that NO she doesn’t need to exist for old men #she deserves something better and epic #idk man I’m going crazy sorry
