apparently one of main guys directing the god damn zelda movie "aims for it to be a live-action miyazaki"
and i just-
you idiot, you fool, you absolut buffoon
first of all, there is a REASON why all his films are ANIMATED, animation can do things live action will never be able to no matter how much shitty CGI effects you pump into it
secondly, given how any possible ghibli influence in totk is so clearly purely a superficial attempt of copying aesthetics and NOTHING more is making me more convinced that movie will be shit
miyazakis works have been reduced to whimsical childrens fantasy with a specific kind of aesthetic in the mindset of many and i HATE it, its so much more than that and seeing how much totk has been compared to it, again, purely bc of some aesthetics reminiscent of his movies is still driving me nuts
the zelda series, especially the most recent entry, is very clearly lacking in everything that miyazaki excels at and i am not confident that anyone in higher positions whos working on that darn movie understands any of it and will just go for the usual copying of surface level aesthetics tm

Rapid fire shit I wish people had told me about witchcraft:
Every fucking thing is a spell if you put your mind to it
You can and should bless your medications
Pepper is the best for banishing, especially in the form of pepper spray
Don't trust any man who promotes sex magic...with himself
Powerful witches live and die by arch support
Conversely, plantar fasciitis is one hell of a curse and all it takes to cast it is gifting one pair of cute shoes
Sing while you cleanse - it doesn't have to make sense, it doesn't even have to be real words, but the noise helps drive out bad spirits
Fire IS the cleanser but firefighters uncleanse everything so be fucking careful
Early wiccans made up the bullshit of the Law of 3, the Rede, etc, because they were shitty people who were terrified of being rightfully cursed
Never do a knot spell you can't untie
You can untie any knot spell with scissors
Witchcraft isn't an aesthetic; the most powerful witches don't look like witches and the ones who look most like witches rarely know what the fuck they're doing
Never underestimate the power of a grid
Scrapbook paper will take your spell from 0 to 60
Concrete powder in a gas tank is much more effective than sugar in a gas tank
You can practice any religion, or no religion, and be a witch
Turtles are always a good sign
Crows will be your friend for peanuts, but they WILL eat hummingbirds
Witchcraft is science with some flair
Yeah signs from the universe do exist, but most things aren't Signs(tm)

This user is a kitsune🐾
Tumblr media
Hi! Intro post. A very shitty one too :3 (I never claimed to be good at tumblr)
My name's Kasper, Kaz for short, pronouns he/him and 20y/o. I'm a kitsune nonhuman, a trans man, asexual, arospec (quoiromantic), and gay.
Additionally, I'm an anarchist/antifascist, punk/emo menace, voidpunk, artist, furry, and generally quite obsessed with death, the macabre, and the aesthetics of such, with a side of cyberpunk and traditional Japanese!
Rest of The Stuff (TM) below the break!
I'm not in many fandoms truth be told. Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, DnD, Six of Crows and the rest of the Grishaverse to a lesser extent (rip s3), Ōkami (the video game. high-key my favorite game of all time) and the Soulsborne games. I also play most soulslikes and most action games with japanese aesthetics for nonhuman reasons :3
Tumblr media
Genshin mains are Thoma, Childe, Wrio, Heizou, Scara, Tighnari and Lyney when I get him. Honourable mentions go to Ayato and Miko. On my main account, that is, my alt has a separate collection!
HSR mains are Luka (hypercarry!), Arlan, and Jing Yuan, though I'll definitely be collecting more pretty boys down the line. And one day I'll finally have Gepard! Whether he likes it or not!
Tumblr media
This blog is largely miscellaneous. I don't have nearly enough brain cells for more than one, haha, barring my nonhumanity sideblog @kitsune-bones. I do have a tag system though!
- Kaz growls: anything political or discourse-y
- Kaz yips: nonhuman/otherkin/therian related posts, including voidpunk stuff
- Kaz plays: anything video game related
- Kaz draws: original art
- Kaz barks: pride posts
- Kaz howls: anything spooky or macabre :D
- Fox's Crow posting: new Six of Crows tag bc I keep reblogging SoC stuff and tagging myself as Kaz on them is. Awkward lol (not that I don't love Brekker he's my favourite menace <3)
- Kaz's miscellaneous bone pile: whatever else I happen to reblog or post.
Tumblr media
DNI list isn't super specific. DNI if you're a zoo/pedo or supporter of; trans- and/or homophobic, of any kind (including terfs, truscum/transmeds, aphobic, biphobic, etc.); racist/ableist/any other kind of bigot; anti-otherkin/therian/nonhuman/alterhuman or anti-furry; a fascist (obviously); or if you're just looking to pick a fight. I WILL bite you. I also won't hesitate to block.
Tumblr media
That's about it from me! I'm not sure why you read all this exactly but thanks! <•w•>

Tumblr media
reposting the text i attached to this on my twitter, but! i wanted to draw a special pride piece of these two and me, and talk about how they changed my life, tw below for transphobia, and religious trauma.
(this is all copied directly from the twitter thread i made so, sorry for the weird spacing!)
i found out i was trans when i was 14, unfortunately my own home wasnt accepting by any means, and with that my family had found out i was trans multiple time, the second time completely breaking me to the point where i did everything in my power to not be trans.
which clearly didnt do anything for my mental, shortly after my family had found out the second time, i had gotten into fn again and jonesy absolutely changed my life, he helped me escape the shitty reality i was dealt.
jonesy is a character i will forever cherish, he brought me insane comfort in one of the most painful times in my life, drawing him, playing fn, and seeing others artwork of him, jonesy led me to meet amazing people who i am thankful to know today, one of those people-
being my own roomate who helped me escape my old household. (thanks a ton matt! youre incredible if you read this! :) ) funny enough, during this time, i had started fixating on angels a bunch cause i was drawing guernsey with wings. (insp by turphs art!)
Tumblr media
in me doing my tomfoolery, i remember coming across an image of gabriel, and i stared at it for HOURS, and it just jump-started me fixating heavily on angels, looking through tags on tumblr to reblog stuff that fit that "aesthetic"
unfortunately, not a lot of neat stuff comes up when you look up angel on tumblr. its mostly women in lingerie with wings, yeah not what im looking for! and as i kept looking for neat stuff of angels, i couldnt get the image of gabriel out of my mind. (heres me talking about him.)
Tumblr media
he continued to sit in my mind for a while, as my interest in him grew, i would tell friends that i really badly wanted to watch tm/c but was scared due to eye horror, and in me expressing my interest in him.
my roommate had found out and was excited to know i had interest in it, and asked about us both watching it together (yet again thanks so much! :) ) and we ended up watching it together and OH MY GOSH i was absolutely amazed, he very quickly took over my heart.
shortly after that my family had found out that i was struggling with my gender identity they absolutely freaked out. it was my breaking point, i was fucking scared but i wasnt going to suffer any longer, if i was going to be in hell then i was going to be in hell comfortably.
during the months of having to deal with transphobia from my family daily, gabriel greatly helped me, i would draw me and him, to help myself feel better, he quite literally is an angel. any moment i was away, i was finding comfort through him.
after getting out of my old home and finally being comfortable being me, i realized that in a strange way, gabriel kind of helped heal so much of my religious trauma in such a short time, obviously not fully healed, but to a point where i am no longer in fear.
now its time for me to wrap this all up, thank you to all of my wonderful friends who stayed with me through it all, (specifically shouting out chicken, matt, and jim/vivus!) and thank you to jonesy and gabriel, who changed and quite literally saved my life. thank you!

There are a number of "features" Fire Emblem and various other works in the anime/manga style used to denote unattractiveness/ugliness, Validar has almost all of them even without the grey skin and no good guy in Fire Emblem: Awakening has even half as many "ugly" features as Validar.
Even outside of anime, Validar looks like Disney's Jafar, whom is directly stated to be ugly. Even Japanese sites notice the resemblance and "Jafar" is a nickname for Validar or Fauder in that part of the fandom.
Fire Emblem is very much into "ugly people are evil" and "beautiful face equals beautiful heart even if its well hidden at first", with Awakening being even more on the nose about it than other Fire Emblem games.
Even the official 4Komas for Awakening crack jokes about Validar's ugliness, so I disagree that Validar was designed as attractive.
Besides if Validar was attractive we know he would've been recruitable in spotpass content.
Ok, I think there was a slight misreading of my previous answer, so let me split this one up into more obviously delineated sections.
Re: the game's character design trends:
Yeah, Fire Emblem does have a problem with designing their villain characters to have "ugly" features. It's a major ongoing flaw of the series. And it's particularly egregious with Validar purely due to the contrast between his design and Robin's. I wish these games would cut that shit out, I truly do.
If they didn't look so different it would be so much better. Make Robin look a little more like their dad! Give them a darker skin tone and adopt some of Validar's features, like the thinner face and higher cheekbones. Make them look related, and don't make the good guy white and the bad guy brown gray, and it wouldn't fix Awakening's shitty character design trends but it would help a fucking lot with Validar specifically.
We agree on this point, anon. It's also something that has already been condemned at length in the circles I run in. Like. This Has Been Talked About.
Re: the spotpass recruits:
Walhart is recruitable. Like, I understand the point you're trying to make, but Walhart is at first glance an even more stark example of the Villains Are Ugly phenomenon, and you can recruit Walhart in the spotpass content. You can marry him with Robin, even.
I think the reason Validar isn't recruitable is more about the fact that he's not only been vaporized on screen by endgame, he's also the second-to-final villain in the game, the guy who jammed a lightning sword in Chrom's kidneys, and Robin's abusive dad. I don't think the Shepherds would WANT to recruit him even if he was available for recruit.
Opinion rooted in personal taste:
Even with all their attempts to make Validar physically ugly, in spite of how shitty the design intent there is, there's a shockingly small amount of changes you would have to make to his design to make him a good looking character imo. Especially when compared to other Awakening villains like Walhart or Excellus.
Seriously. The dude's built like a high fantasy elf, that's not an inherently unattractive body type. Give him a skin tone that makes him look like an alive human, give him back his eyebrows, tell him to stop squinting 24/7 and turn off the eerie underlighting, make that one wrinkle on his forehead a bit less ridiculous, and you've got a pretty aesthetically pleasing older guy right there. Bonus points if you give him a more flattering hairstyle than whatever the hell his hair is doing by default.
Here, look, I even went to the trouble of editing one of his warriors sprites to show you what I mean, in both original eyeshadow and slightly more chill eyeliner flavours.
Tumblr media
Like yeah he's not a Standard Pretty Anime Boy(tm) but he's like 2 inches away from being good looking, imo. You can't tell me that if he looked like this he wouldn't be a niche tumblr sexyman.
Shame he comes packaged with an absolute dogshit personality tho

hi lovely! so i was just rereading your "football" au, the one with the roommates and the definitely not in love with his teammate pierre etc... and first things first, it is fabulous. completely and utterly WONDERFUL, really! chef's kiss throughout.
but. but i do have one thing to say. my friend and i were both reading this and going feral, but we're also both very british and very confused. so to set the scene: we read "football au" and thought oh we know this! this is going to be fab! but then there was something about giants. and also quarterbacks. or was it linebacks??? and listen i really do think you're a marvellous writer. but sincerely. what fuck is a quarterback?? i only know a quarter pounder, and that's a burger, mate 😭
Tumblr media
i know that gif is awful and sorry about it but. but THAT'S what i understand from quarter pounder. and pierre definitely isn't a burger tho i bet charles would love to eat him like one so YEAH. you are a goddess indeed, but please enlighten us about the mysterious and confounding world of american football 🙏
GJDSKLGMDSLKGDS oh my god bestie i have been thinking about this ask all day and dying. i am so sorry for being american.
i won't go into the details of american football bc literally i dont even get it sometimes jklgdmsgklmds BUT. here are my answers to your questions, and a little of what ya need to know:
giants = the team name! they are one of two New York City-associated nfl teams. here's the shitty little moodboard i made a while back for colors/aesthetic :) lmao
quarterback = player on offense who throws the football! they're usually the biggest stars on the teams, and they're the players generally responsible for scoring. (if you've been on my blog on tumblr desktop(tm), the man in my sidebar gif is the quarterback for the giants right now!)
in the au, pierre is a runningback, which is a player who runs with the football! usually the quarterback will hand the ball off to the runningback, who tries to dodge the defenders and get as far down the field as he can before he gets tackled to the ground.
charles is a kicker, which is a player who kicks the football! when a team scores, they can get an extra point by kicking the football through the uprights.
when i get closer to actually finishing this fic i'll like. find a football primer of some kind and/or have a lil dictionary for people to reference <3

Leia for the mobile prompt thing ^^
ooooh yay more prompts! cool cool!
character prompts from this post
What does your blorbo's phone/laptop/car/backpack look like?
Leia
Phone:
Ok so as Anakin and Padmé's kid (in a modern!AU, I'm assuming she would be, though of course Bail and Breha are still a very active part of her life), Leia knows both sides of the "planned obsolescence of technology" vs. "we live in a capitalist society means taking part in capitalism" debate very well. Her middle ground is a Galaxy, newest model. Don't get on her ass about it for whatever reason unless you want a list of five different tech regulatory bills you can call your senators about.
She's got a screen protector over it, but it's got a few tiny crack marks from it hitting the floor when Chewie flipped the table during game night/it flying out of her hands when she was having an argument involving Intense Hand Waving/she hands it to Luke sometimes and that means getting it back with Mystery Scratches he swears he doesn't know where they came from
The case is some kind of fancy artsy red leather design she found on Etsy. She figured the leather padding on the outside meant it was impact-safe enough, though the aforementioned crack marks prove her not quite right.
Her lockscreen is a casual photo they asked a nice waiter to take of her Luke Han Lando and Chewie out for dinner somewhere.
Homescreen is of this really good aesthetic sunset photo she took that she's honestly really proud of because despite her general good aim, she's not a very good photographer, though she's not telling anyone it was taken from the roof of an abandoned 7/11 and the gas station sign is just barely cropped out of the pic
Her apps aren't organized by anything, but she doesn't have all too many apps to begin with. She does also have five email apps like her mother before her though.
Since this is a Galaxy phone, Leia's got the fake-handwriting font. She accidentally got it stuck that way but then got used to it before she could figure out how to turn it off, so now she has to keep her phone like that and she hates it because that's Unprofessional(TM).
Laptop:
I'm unfortunately an apple bitch so I can't say what type of laptop she has specifically, just that it's one of the newer nicer PC models, maybe some kind of Windows? Like the ones with the touch screens or something
Her screen isn't cracked, but the corner lip of the keyboard is permanently bent ever so slightly because long story short Han whacked someone in the head with it once. It also drives her kind of nuts, but the laptop still works just fine and she has no clue how the fuck someone would fix it, so she just tolerates her laptop case not fitting quite right and is only passive aggressive to Han about it every fifth time she opens it up :)
Laptop shell case itself is plain clear and professional, she doesn't need anything fancy.
Her laptop background is probably one of her favorite art pieces. Not entirely sure what that would be, but I'm thinking of this one specific piece where there are two dancers dancing together with a golden background and the woman is in a pretty red dress.
Car:
Okay so Leia was REALLY proud to save up entirely her own money as a late teen/young adult for her first car, because that meant she wouldn't have to share the Demonic Prius with Luke anymore. She wouldn't let anyone help her out monetarily and ended up driving a shitty, shitty old Jeep she found from some random guy with Anakin's help for years lol.
Like, even when she did have money from real grownup jobs, she was still fond of the Jeep and had been through a lot in it, so she kept it as long as she could, kept it clean on the outside and inside best she could even though one window didn't go down, the AC worked half the time, and it had a permanent stench of gasoline
Of course another reason she doesn't end up really considering getting a nicer car is because only a few years after she gets the Jeep she and Luke meet Han, proud owner of the Flame Paint Job Seven Different Weed Compartments Bee's Nest In The Ceiling Catflap Cut Out Of The Back Door So You Can Throw Things At Cops Winnebago From Hell, and there is literally no way to look remotely normal when you're next to That, so she just. gives in, doesn't even try, and unless she's driving herself to work, she lets Han ferry her around in the Falcon anywhere else she needs to be.
Backpack:
Eh, probs the least interesting one.
Leia's got a reliable black canvas and leather backpack that fits her laptop, umbrella, water/iced coffee, and whatever book she's bringing with her
She's not really a bag person, likes to add pockets to all of her clothes, so she travels light in terms of carrying things.
She steals bags from Padmé if she wants to go fancier though

Shitty Arthur Lester aesthetic: everyone always wants to be the narrative's favourite until it turns out that this is actually not a good thing for them. this goes double for when the narrative is lovecraftian in nature. guess what buddy there is yet more plot coming your way and it's in the form of tentacles, cults, and intestines

What are the trends when it comes to writing that you adore? Have you ever developed an OC for a certain fandom?
mun q's || accepting
What are the trends when it comes to writing that you adore?
what even are The Trends(tm) these days........ honestly I think the relative lack of trends is what I like the most, and the fact that it doesn't feel like there's an accepted checklist of fancy graphics or specific writing styles anymore? I've been rping on tumblr for like ten years at this point, and when I started people didn't really give a shit about using a set format for icons or promos, trimming threads wasn't a thing, no one even used small text. and I don't miss all of that (untrimmed threads my beloathed) but for a while after that it felt like you definitely got less attention if you weren't curating a certain aesthetic. and there's obviously nothing wrong with going for a cohesive look with your graphics or spending a lot of time on icons, because I love seeing what people come up with! but as someone who's never entirely enjoyed working on that kind of stuff myself, I appreciate that the rpc seems to have shifted back towards not caring about all of that as much. I'm doing a bunch of iconless threads right now and tbh it's nice and feels lower pressure than having to pick an icon and then spending twenty minutes lamenting the fact that my icons are old and shitty and I just don't have time to make new ones. but at the same time I write with some people with awesome icons and headers, and who take the time to add colored text and everything -- and that's great too! and I love that we can all write together and no one seems to have a stick up their ass about that kind of thing anymore.
Have you ever developed an OC for a certain fandom?
the aforementioned warrior cat oc is to date the only oc I have ever written / developed lol. I joke around that Miles has basically become an oc at this point, which I don't think is necessarily untrue. it's not like he was a super well developed character to begin with, and I've thrown him into enough aus that I feel like he should qualify as like. 60% oc at the very least.
I don't really have a good reason for not having any ocs either, other than the fact that specific characters are usually what draw me into a fandom in the first place. I tend to be less interested in the larger universes and more interested in individual characters, so I'm more compelled to keep developing the canon characters that I see something intriguing about, if that makes any sense? I guess I've never really looked at a fandom and been like "wow I love that world / story so much I want to make a character that belongs there." it tends to be more of a "wow I love and understand that character so much, they're mine now." because I also can't think of a fandom I've participated in where latching on to a specific character wasn't my driving force behind getting into the fandom in the first place.

hi hiii 😄
18. Choose a passage from your writing. Tell me about the backstory of this moment. How you came up with it, how it changed from start to end. Spicy addition: Questioner provides the passage.
Well here's some from tomorrow's Mayday-
Lee supports Andy down the steps of the flat, the two of them stumbling to Andy’s car with just short of the combined coordination of one sober man. Andy slumps into the driver’s seat and Lee has to rest a hand against the side of the car, steadying himself, before he gets into the passenger seat. Andy’s keys are like a patter of rainfall against the plastic of the dashboard, clinking again and again as he fights to get them in with shaking hands.
The bit I highlighted is the first line from Lee's pov I wrote in the whole fic (I was.... several thousand words deep in David's perspective by then lmao). It's a bit more context for what actually happened that night. I feel like I'm doing that thing you're not supposed to as a writer HAHA magician-explaining-his-tricks, but it's something hopefully everyone noticed already, which is that David's a bit of an unreliable narrator. He didn't get the fuuull story the night it happened, and certainly in the next three years his memory warped it. Hopefully, another detail of David's memory will be contradicted tomorrow.
22. How organized are you with your writing? Describe to me your organization method, if it exists. What tools do you use? Notebooks? Binders? Apps? The Cloud?
Oh I'm a mess, thanks for asking! I've got one big doc where I keep all plotbunny fugitives in disorganised bullet points of whatever plot or moment or aesthetic sparked the idea. They vary from a single line to a beat-by-beat plot summary. For a taste, this is what a couple previous fics had before I wrote them:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
er as you can see, some details get changed from the initial idea to the finished product (I don't know why when I was plotting it I felt like Lee locking the door was important? tbh vaguely sinister to me now lol). The JM&LB thing was a really really indirect Peep Show reference, I think. And I pepper them with asides and memes to amuse myself. "(This isn’t so much a fic idea as my hand kink getting absolutely out of control. But it’s MY fic so I get to decide how much Lee’s fingers get licked for no fucking reason)"
36. They say to Write What You Know. Setting aside for a moment the fact that this is terrible advice...what do you Know?
HA good question. I mean I can't drive, I can't--
erm, huh. I guess I know the mindset Lee's presented himself as having, if that makes sense. When he jokes about not being able to control what jumps out of his mouth, or looks surprised by what he's just said, etc. I know I project a lot of like. ADHD-related stuff onto him, lol. And I'm not as funny as he is. I've done some stand-up though! I Know TM what it's like to feed off attention from strangers.
And be super attracted to David Mitchell, I guess.
I also know what it's like to work in a bakery ;). Not saying I'm working on another au but
(I am, though. And it's mostly to excise the trauma of that job from my memory. I need to have good associations with hot chocolate again.)
40. Please share a poem with me, I need it.
OK I have three and I suspect none of them will be crowd favourites LMAO
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I just like this one 'cause it's got puns in it that only work if you're bilingual.
and if you made it to the bottom of the post you get MY shitty poetry, nerd. I'm not a poet (I'm hardly even a prose writer!! I write PLAYS not whatever THIS all is. But nevertheless)
I actually wrote it about RPF because I was having another fit of guilt and paranoia el oh el. I swear I'm getting over it, this was back in March, PROBABLY after I reread It Starts With A Smile knowing me, and I was like "oh the txt app is gonna fuckin love this one"
Subculture - Culture and what is beneath Guilty pleasure - Pleasure, and the underlying guilt.
We are championed by the worst of us - how can we not be? Our standard bearers are the ones who fly their flags. We are flag burners. No further, we whisper to each other in the scribbled notes packed in with our masterpieces. No further than this; for you, not for them.
The characters, we remind each other, so careful. Your perfect voices. His (yours). The way you tell it. The way you frame it. What I love is you, not them.
*head in my hands* now you all know I write poetry about my insane relationship with my hobbies but yall had to learn there was something wrong EVENTUALLY so if you see me later pretend you never read this.

2 Years of ask-demon-prosciutto
((Well, it’s this blog’s 2 year anniversary. Probably not something to really celebrate considering how little content I’ve made, but that’s not why I’m posting about it. I’m talking about it because I want to make this milestone a comeback after all these months of dicking around. I’ve been planning this for quite a while, actually. I can’t remember how long I have, though maybe it’ll come to me later on (I’ve been up for an unnecessarily long time at the time of writing this). And now, the day that I planned would mark my return has come. And with new-ish beginnings come some pretty hefty changes. I of course didn’t get as much as I wanted to done, but it’s better than me holding onto an ask for several months just to give a shitty text response I suppose!
Okay, actually onto the updates:
General Changes
First off, we have completely new profile picture! I made this back in November, so I can safely say I’ve at least been working on this whole reboot since then! But yeah, I think this blog’s been LONG overdue for some new avatar flesh, especially considering...
Prosciutto Got a Redesign!
I’ve been teasing this for a while now, but now you guys get to see it in full, not only in the pinned post, but also... Here!
Tumblr media
...I will admit he hasn’t changed as much as I wanted him to, but I’m still happy with how he turned out. I hope you guys are as well!
And for the record, I’m going to try to make new reference sheets like this for everyone else later on. I wanted to before today, but well... You know me (I was also occupied with other drawings).
New Pinned Post
I got a whole-ass new pinned post now! It features some new artwork, my inbox status, the Carrd, and some other things I’ll bring up down below. If you missed something important, you can probably find it in that post.
Carrd Updates
The Carrd’s gotten a pretty heft update since I last edited it! Changes include:
+Pretty much all of the text got rewritten or edited. Some sections were changed more than others.
+The Carrd overall now has a new aesthetic: The white/purple gradient was replaced with an orange/dark red one, a purple border was added, and the header image was changed to the new pfp + its size has been increased.
+Characters pages got a slight aesthetic overhaul too. Symbols corresponding to each character-minus Microorganism Pros- were added besides their names, and their subtitles/epithets were made bigger. The white dividers that went under each name were also removed because today I discovered that Carrds have a limited number of elements you can use if you don’t have their membership. Fun! I managed to free up some space, though they probably won’t be coming back knowing that there will be more elements needed as I introduce more characters.
+Also regarding characters, Illuso has been added to the roster of characters you can ask! With that, he has his own page now where you can gather come lore crumbs tm.
+Removed the tag guide page because I didn’t think it was necessary. Most of the tags have their meaning in parenthesis and/or are self-explantory. I also needed the element space, as discussed above. If people want it, however, I’ll bring the tag guide back, though it won’t be on the Carrd.
Speaking of that conflict regarding the limited elements, I’m considering moving everything over to a website now that I know of this. The Carrd I currently have is really beefy, and it’s only going to get even more stuffed as time goes on. I don’t think I’ll be able to fit everything I want to put on there, which is why I’m looking to find a good website maker, preferably one that doesn’t limit how much content you can put on one. I’ll be taking any suggestions given for the time being.
Discord
I’m working on setting up a Discord for this blog and as a sort of hub for other JJBA ask blogs out there! It’s mostly complete; I just wanna find a bot that can be used for auto-assigning roles first. It’ll put the invite link in the pinned post + make a separate post once I’m ready to open it up.
Scrapped Art/WIP Showcase
Remember when I promised this last year and then never actually did it? Well, it’s finally here! It’s also in the new pinned post in case you can’t find this post. Do keep in mind that it isn’t complete at the time of writing this though; I still gotta find some old sketchbook sketches that I never took pictures of.
More Activity?
I can’t guarantee this since I’m still the same old same old, but I’ll try my best to become more active! Y’all will also have to keep in mind that I got all sorts of other projects on my mind, and as of writing, something personal will be coming up soon for me, and it may affect my motivation depending on the outcome. Again, I’ll try my best to be more responsive, though it may come at the cost of the art’s quality...
Wow, this has been a long post. Well, it’s great to be on here for real and see you all again. And again, thanks for sticking around despite all my tomfoolery; it really means a lot to me. <3

what are some of your favorite ships with your oc?
what do you think makes your oc unique?
what qualities do you and your oc have in common?
let me talk about sam
what are some of your favorite ships with your oc?
like all of them? seriously. if you ship with me, know from the bottom of my heart i am Obsessed.
but a very special shoutout, that only OGs will remember, but sam and frank (tumblr user mutav who is no longer on tumblr) will always be so so special to me. sometimes i still go back and read our old threads. they were so fucked up and so in love and too stupid to say it out loud even though they could read each others thoughts SIGH. sam and frank will always be canon to me. star crossed lovers </3
what do you think makes your oc unique?
i genuinely don't know if i get this across as well as i'd like to, but i think sam is unique in that he's very much The Asshole Character(tm) but he's still human, you know? he's deeply wounded and very sad underneath it all. he's got LAYERS he contains multitudes!!!!! you know, like, just because someone is mean and shitty doesn't mean that they aren't hurting and don't deserve help and love.
i also don't see his kind of aesthetic around a lot so maybe also that?
what qualities do you and your oc have in common?
sam and i both have problems with anger, but in like inverse ways. he's very vocal about his anger, not afraid to show it, and i have issues even feeling anger at like a base level. writing sam can be kind of cathartic for me sometimes lmao.
he also has my music taste from when i was 15 and believed that a song wasn't a song unless it had a guitar solo in it.
also the drugs. i haven't used in years and i feel weird about calling myself an addict for reasons i won't get into here but the definition applies. whew.
