#which i found out when researching this

litany of the martyrs (click for better resolution!)

#at some point i wanted to make an illustration for each character but in retrospect maybe each is multiple song-coded.. #drew the sketch for a quincy thing after a chat with a mutual reminded me this song existed dfsghjkl and then spent weeks rendering this #quincy cynthius martin #adamandi #i'm finally done with this! the saints especially were joys to paint and the halo a menace.... this has been the most ambitious one so far. #but it also took quite long because i only worked on it <engages with quincy> when mentally okay to deal with the themes. i'm not religious #but i do identify with the irrational(?ish) guilt + family legacy + academic achievement + disregard for self. also more complex thoughts #about love [but depsite quincent being a large part of quincy's character this piece deals with mostly the Rest of it. so another time..] #anyways! in the original sketch- the saints had heads bent towards quincy so the halo spikes pointed at him. but this worked better! halos #of the saints implying/creating one for quincy was a concept from the start though. in the show they don't touch him directly here but #differences in mediums i think- i don't have time in an image to craft a narrative so everything has to be happening. also artistic liberty #misc inspiration for this includes stained glass windows. i might have maybe misinterpreted the saint costume but i think i logic-ed it out #as the cloth part following a nun's habit w the hood. and then halo above. the material is also more transparent originally but i had. um. #too much fun painting fabric folds.. if you look closely you can see the basis of faces though behind the cloth; but only the vague shapes #because smth obscurity + inhumanness// cassian is the only one i gave a mouth though. that stems from melliot's post about the saints and #st cassian as spokesperson (<- did research teehee!) that's also how i found out which costume = which saint. speaking of which. #left to right: 'st lucy take my hand' // 'st lawrence give me strength' (presses quincy forward; but hand on shoulder connotates guidance) #/'st cassian help me smile' (quincy's mouth is btwn a grimace and a smile; tilts up at side. also no direct touch bc added insidiousness.) #//'st jude [...] i hope your causes burn' (jude's hand is in two places to show movement- nearing the flame and then snatching back; burnt) #other notes: at the midst of the flame the core is shaped like a human heart /the saints and their wax are all melting like the candle for #fun visual effect and also this way they are even less tangible <real>. perks of painting as a medium i guess. // also insp from icarus? #wax and burning imagery; looking at the halo and rays as parallel to sun that burns. too close to the sun; melting; hurting; hurtling // #candles at bottom are a nod to the frankly gorgeous set// also the entire composition kind of stems from the lyric <what use is a candle if #both ends aren't burning>; the two sides between the concepts of catholic guilt and academic perfection that spur quincy #the halo above (saints and guilt; litanyofthemartyrs) and the 'halo' below (academic papers; insp from choreo for perfect at school) #the papers were originally supposed to be more glowy. but i like the idea of it now being a reflection of how quincy's priorities shift #also of note is that <candle> in centre = quincy; w burning candle + aforementioned heart in flame -> most human; idea of love + passion #last thoughts: kneeling + hands close tgt = prayer //wax dripping onto the red As make an effect that looks like blood. because i like #hiding that within the adamandi pieces :OO continuity!! // i've run out of tags but yeah! had fun with this one! every so often i go a #little insane in making art and the final result astounds even me. ngl i'm quite proud of this one. pretty colours <3333

My brother recently got into Demon Slayer so I wanted to make a kny oc for him since I did it before with both me and my sister and never got around to my brother :)

But I started by refreshing my own design because wow?? It’s been 4 years since I first made my kny insert character and a lot of things are now outdated! Not to mention my art has improved a lot, I hope. More details under the cut!

Meet Ebisu Koharu: youngest of the Ebisu family and physically the weakest. They only barely passed Final Selection by hiding for the entire week and surviving off tips from their older siblings. Nonetheless, they still want to contribute, which is why they hold onto a thick, leather bound book that records every demon they’ve ever met in precise detail, with labeled diagrams and scribbled calculations in the margins of different strengths and weaknesses.

After spending a few years on the job, and properly seeing their data contribute to the successes of other demon slayers, they’ve come a bit more into their own as a competent researcher and fighter, though they still do tend to request paired missions with friends and family to act more as a support role rather than a fighter.

The Ebisu family is one of scholars. The eldest daughter Kaoru is a doctor, and the eldest son Shougen is a chemist. By nature, fighting is not necessarily their strong suit, which is why their family breathing style and techniques are all poison-assisted. Of the three, Koharu is the weakest and most averse to combat— they wield a short half-length blade, with more of a smooth ceremonial hilt and sheath than any practical weapon.

#kny oc #kimetsu no yaiba #demon slayer #it’s so much fun seeing my brother be so late to the party for kny lmao #I love him but his takes are kind of shit ngl. #his character will be absolutely hilarious to do as well #because you better believe I’m going to lean far into how much he simps for giyu #looking for names is so much more fun when I can read some kana and am not using google translate #I found out that the combination of me and my sister’s names form kanari which i will not stop thinking about for ages #four years of improvement and four years of character development! Better character design and research skills #it’s a lot of fun thinking more about details when designing now #I.e. brushes are wildly impractical tools for writing on the go so koharu’s main choice of stationery is an imported fountain pen that cost #a decent amount of their savings #and they wanted their records to last longer so they also invested in a proper leather bound journal (also imported) rather than #a normal string bound book like their normal daily journal. this is also why the books open in different directions #in the event that their fountain pen breaks they Will Cry but they will also commit the details to memory and write them in with a bruh #with a brush after the battle ends

#so my brother found a box full of documents #from when some semi-distant relative was researching family geneaology #and all my time reading old letters on the loc website came in handy #because it meant i could decipher the handwritten document #of my great-great-grandfather's life story #and read it for everyone as we hung out before family sunday dinner #and the pressure is now on for all the unmarried family members #we've got a legacy to live up to with courtship stories #it seems my great-great-grandfather came to america after a failed engagement #a few years later he met a girl and her parents outside of church #the father hired him to work on his farm #three days later the girl rode with him in a wagon somewhere on some farm business #and she was like 'i've been thinking about you day and night since i first saw you and this is our first chance to speak alone' #and she was like 'we should get married' and he agreed and they shook hands #though they did wait until the next sunday to formalize the engagement #they waited three months to ask for her father's blessing #which they got #they got married two months later #and were married for 35 years #until the morning of the day they were scheduled to take their first out-of-state trip #(he was excited to give her a chance to travel after a life of knowing only home and work) #and he woke up to find her dead beside him #he was writing this not long after and you can tell he was heartbroken #so the marriage was clearly successful #so anyway my one brother was like 'now i feel unsuccessful. i've never found a woman who wanted to marry me after three days' #and my married brother told all us unmarried ones that he expects us to be engaged by next week #clearly it can be done #and anyway it's so interesting to know the details #after only vaguely knowing this guy's name

I have a question! EXTREMELY URGENT!

So, we know that the photo Future Leonardo hands Casey Junior hasn't been taken yet in the present.

Raph: "Who are you? Why do you have a picture of us?" Leo: "Yeah, who took this? 'Cause I look great!"

In the picture, April's holding a binder with "Eastlaird University" written on it.

We know that she's already a freshman student in the movie, because she posts her university daily news and knows her way around the building.

That means it can't be her "getting into college" celebration picture, and it also can't be her graduation picture because the Kraang invasion happens in August (and there's no way Eastlaird University remained open for even a semester in the future).

When did they take that picture?

#i'm serious #so confused #by the way throughout my research i found that Eastlaird University is actually New York University #because Casey Junior's mask located the university in “80 Washington Square” #and in 80 Washington Square there IS a university and it's NY University #also #at least 90% of the people (humans) in the movie are wearing short sleeves at night #which means it's a summer night #or really early fall #which yeah- just means the movie happens in august or the first half of september #i personally like to believe it's August 5 - the day Rise of the TMNT Movie came out #WHEN DID THEY TAKE THAT PICTURE? #OUTRAGEOUS #PLEASE IF ANYBODY HAS ANY INFO?? IT'S FOR FANFICTION #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #april o'neil #rottmnt #text post

so things are not going well with my new elderly socdem friend unfortunately.

#she said this RIGHT after talking about how bad yt misinfo is... which she followed up w SO I WAS WATCHING A YT DOC ABOUT WW2 & LEARNED THIS #youtube 'historians' are literally the most fascist breed of youtuber. avoid the vast majority like the plague lmao #i asked if the video was sourcing the hollow dahmer & the black book of communism & she didnt seem to know what those are lol #to her credit i told her straight up that she was incorrect & she at least faked being curious about doing more research but i am doubting #she also 'learned' that lenin killed trotsky lol get your propaganda right lenin was dead by then STALIN icepicked him <3 #anyway im making jokes bc the worst part was a different conversation where she spoke positively of israel #THAT'S gonna be the one to ruin our friendship. fuck you & your war tourist friend who fought in the 1960s landgrabs that youre now #telling me as if this is a cute story. nahhhh lmao i looked her straight in the eye & said i will NOT debate this #so she dropped it like the true enlightened centrist most socdem cowards are and i kept cleaning her house quietly #turns out You & Me We're the Only Ones Around Here Who Aren't Complete Fools was premature *kicks the poorly rendered gravel sadly* #shes otherwise a nice lady & i know i need to be more flexible in order to hopefully change ppls minds... #but also when people say awful & untrue things it makes me not want to talk to you 🤷‍♂️ srry 2 b a freak like that #also i know shes not transphobic but i havent sniffed her out well enough to know if shes safe to come out to #so its hours of misgendering (which isnt her fault she doesnt know) bc shes obsessed with neoliberal feminism and inappropriately brings #gender into conversations that it does not belong in #'did you know all the countries that handled covid best were ran by women?' 1) untrue 2) dont care finland still sucks #she also tried to tell me that european rich people learned to be nicer after the french rev & thats why europe is better than america... #girl shut up we learned how to be so good at racism and capitalism BECAUSE of europe. there is no such thing as a good rich person!!! #i pick my battles (genocide & anticommunist genocide revisionism) so i let her cook w that one & was not left convinced as you can imagine #ANYWAY rant about today's weird day done. gonna smoke weed & rim some skies 🥵 while listening to the Khrushchev Lied audiobook i found 😘

I’m sorry I dissed fishing minigames I’ve become addicted to fishing in animal crossing 😭

#animal crossing #in an attempt to stop repressing so much and to try to make myself happy again #ive gotten back into acnh and idk fishing is very appealing to me rn #i havent caught anything interesting cuz i havent done my research in a while on when the good stuff is around #but its quite soothing #unfortunately theres not really many bugs out rn cuz its winter which is a shame #cuz i wanted to catch a bunch of cool bugs and show them off to the person i like because they have found #178 different species of bugs in the real world!!!! #and its making me really wanna catch the funny beetles

I had my final review for my probationary period at work today, and it went really well. Feels good to finally have a boss who appreciates the fact that I'm a perfectionist/neurotically detail-oriented weirdo

#also oddly enough the research skills i cultivated in high school/college are really helping me in this job #my boss was like 'you're always doing stuff that i would never think to do and it's impressive' #and i'm just like #you've got all the weird research projects i did at school to thank for that #like i did an internship at the start of covid for a literary org in chicago #and they wanted me to find important dates in authors' lives so we could make a chicago literary calendar #and i was like. okay. lemme find out when they received certain awards. #which then had me spending DAYS combing through newspaper archives from the last century trying to find the specific date an award was give #i also found one author's wedding anniversary #like is this an uncommon way of going about a project like this? bc my internship supervisor was impressed #and i was just like. well newspapers tend to report on awards like this so it just made sense to me? #and my supervisor said they wanted stuff outside of birthdays & death days #and imo the next most notable event in a lot of authors lives/careers is receiving awards or getting a novel published #(which yeah i also combed through digital archives to find publication notices for certain books)

[musical-chick-13]

I’m serious, if you insist on going with “It was mental illness all along!!!” as a Twist™ or reveal in a mystery/horror/etc. piece, you need to write at least 5 more things where that’s not the case and you treat your mentally ill characters with respect to offset it, no more laziness, you wanna use this ableist trope you gotta pay in blood, sweat, and tears.

#I keep putting off finishing this thing that's ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD. BUT I REALLY THINK THE REVEAL IS GONNA BE 'SHE HAD DID' & I'M SO TIRED #guess I could just watch pure and cx/gf again. which is what I say every time this happens #idk like I really do love the mystery/psychological horror genre I wish we could have the equivalent of those two aforementioned shows' #treatment of mental illness in this genre specifically? IT'S MY FAVORITE. BUT THIS IS JUST. ALL I SEE. ALL THE TIME. IT'S GETTING RIDICULOUS #and like. ugh. it's not even that you can't EVER have mentally ill characters be bad people but WHEN THAT'S OVERWHELMINGLY ALL WE SEE #AND THERE IS NO LOVE OR PROMOTION OR ANYTHING FOR THE INSTANCES WE /DO/ GET THAT SUBVERT THAT TROPE.........UGH #also like. there's a HUGE difference between 'complicated and/or tragic villain with mental illness' (i.e. shinya or cersei or lady m) and #'lazy plot device/twist with no effort or research done at all' #idk it's just all a mess and I hate it out here #once again if anyone has any good mental illness/neurodivergent stories to rec PLEASE feel free #the real horror was the ableism we found along the way

Thank you transwomen (in general but also) for the term "boymode" bc using that terminology for myself as a transguy (so, "girlmode") has been the only way I've been able to aptly and succinctly describe whatever the hell was going on *vaguely gestering to my adolescence from ages 15 to 19* there.

#hope i'm not overstepping or saying some dumb shit LMFAO #but like. speaking v generally. esp in the beginning of unpacking 'oh fuck i. i don't think i'm a girl.' #i found i related a lot more to transfemme experiences of living one way for so long all your life playing A Role #and in some cases leaning heavily into masculinity to 'prove' you couldn't possibly be a woman #than like. so many transmasc experiences i'd see online of like 'oh i always knew.' #and the staples of the experience being like. tomboyish. baggy hoodies. ect. #and like i'm not saying any of that in a derogatory or dismissive way. it's just so much of what i saw as a teen #'researching' being trans so i can be a better 'ally' to my friends and classmates LMFAOO #also this is why the narrative of transmen being 'lost girls' and 'just tomboys' is SOOOO stupid it's funny to me like. #there was a very short stint in middle school where i was more 'tomboyish' in appearance #very quickly it was corrected out of me by the influence of loved ones and myself. that wasn't Really Me #let me tell you. the combination of people pleaser/autistic masking is INSANE esppp when you're in an Evil Setting for it LMFAO #<- evil setting being my specific brand of christianity i was brought up w #but case and point i don't think i was ever actually a tomboy. i was HIGHLY feminine actually. #and i found a lot of delights in feminity too! esppp a love of fashion and cute aesthetics #so like. describing my experience w gender/presentation has always been really difficult language-wise #saying 'when i was a girl' doesn't feel right cause i never was one. just played A Role. i didn't always know though. #i didn't even realize i WAS playing a role. also there were things i genuinely loved and enjoyed associated w feminity. #and saying 'post transition' is weird to me too bc. i'm not? there yet? i'm not done yet. #and any which way of trying to describe 'when i came out' is clunky bc i was always outed/forced out #like. multiple times. even before i had the time to explore it/make sense of it myself. #def rambling but. girlmode and autistic masking are synonyms to me now. it captures everything. #i swear to god the parallels between autism/being trans drive me INSANE to me they are always informing one another. #like i feel like i could write an entire fucking essay about it. if i was an academic i would fucking KILL it

[fingertipsmp3]

I’m not sure if the seasonal depression is hitting especially hard this year or if I’m just grieving for Mabel or if I’m finally going irreparably insane or if life/people is being unfair towards me or all of the above

#i cry super hard every day now. sometimes multiple times a day #sometimes something sets it off specifically (like arguing with my mom earlier) #but sometimes i just think about mabel too much and start sobbing #i thought i was okay. i mean i knew i wasn’t okay but i knew time would do its thing #the first few weeks were the worst but earlier this month i felt like i’d kind of plateau’d #like i was still sad but i could look at photos and videos and talk about her without crying. i was even laughing #now… now i can’t even think of her. again #it just feels so fucking unfair that i’ll NEVER see her again. like what the fuck do you mean. what do you MEAN #what do you mean i have to live out my whole life… god knows how fucking long i’ll live; and N E V E R see her again. shut the fuck up. #that’s so fucking unfair. and everyone else is okay. i’m like how can you POSSIBLY just go about your life #the best dog in the world is dead and she’s going to stay dead and i won’t see her again for however many fucking stupid cursed decades #i live and i might not even see her when i die. how the HELL am i supposed to be okay with that. is that a joke #and there’s a part of me that’s like ‘maybe i could adopt another dog’ but i don’t know #i think i’d feel better and worse at the same time. i wouldn’t feel so alone but they wouldn’t be mabel #i put in an application for a terrier that’s at a local rescue but if i don’t get him i’m not trying again. i’ll take it as a hint #cats aren’t an option btw i found out i’m allergic. which was brand new information.. i’ve been around cats that didn’t set my allergies #off at all. but i guess there’s a difference between spending an hour at your friend’s house who has one cat #and living 24/7 with a cat that gets fur and dander and saliva everywhere #and i don’t think other pets would suit me. i just don’t feel comfortable caring for any animal i haven’t done research on #i had hamsters when i was a teenager but… tbh never again. they are so much fun but i have anxiety dreams about them now #so it’s dogs (well.. one dog) or nothing #i do have plans to speak to my doctor about my depression btw because i genuinely find this unsustainable #like i do think it’s situational (seasonal/grief/everyone around me seeming to want to argue with me lately) but i still need #mood stabilisers while i’m in this situation lol #personal

I think Animal Crossing New Leaf is one of the most educational video games I’ve ever played, because right now I am looking at the cost for immigration visas and I’m like. ah. Just like the Dream Suite and it’s something something 234,000 bells. A lot of dedication and effort for smol Pav, that has now been passed on to her older self~

On the other hand, does Australia really need to have the most expensive visa costs in the whole wide world 😭 (8,850 dollars)

#I am researching for somebody :). It’s something to discuss briefly when you get back Dolphin #I love research it’s very fun and I get way too engrossed in it and I can’t wait to share what I found #But what I don’t love is THE GOVERNMENT >:( #Not just this one but what happened with SCOTUS makes me so angry and sad too #Can’t a girl have a dream and have it come true 😞 #I suppose all the more reason to work hard get that stellar atar and become the richest out of all my mutuals :’) #So anyways Dolphin on your own if you were to put 5.30 dollars into savings everyday you could afford it by the time I’m 20~ #As my brain worked out the (5.3 * 30 * 12 * 3) #Ofc as it comes to stuff like this normally you share the cost (which I will gladly do) #But like 😵‍💫 what even is the world #just pav things

so the thing about redwood To Me is that they dont really seem like the traditional domestic partnering type of husbands, lorewise the closest real life equivalent to what they had in last life is the common law marriage -- which is fine until you consider the fact that common law marriages have no real legal standing beyond like financial negotiations Maybe (some usa states give financial protections to common law couples but in england, aka where mumbo and martyn live, common law marriages are practically an aesthetic addition legally speaking and get no protection whatsoever except maybe when they get joint back accounts but you can get those even without getting married i think)

#mine.txt #found out while researching that there was actually a law/bill proposed in england wherein common law marriages can have legal protections #but the government said no and that they should concentrate on the reformation of the legally recognized tyhpes of marriages first #which. ok then. #i mean i know im getting pissy about this cause it interferes with what i want for my fic #but the thing about fic is that i can do whatever i want and nobody can tell me no #when it comes to real life however this is pretty sad #like if a couple wants to have a common law marriage type situation then i think they should be able to do so and have legal protection too #like it doesnt Have to match domestic partnering or even civil unions one-to-one but like. at least Something?? #like financial protection at least??? #anyways i shall be ignoring the declination and will write as if the bill Did get passed cause man #c redwood tag
