I’m about to ramble neurodivergently and incoherently but I can’t stop thinking about this and need to write it down!!!
I’ve been playing a ton of sims 4 lately and… someone needs to make a better feedism trait mod!!
There’s one that exists but it’s not fully developed or integrated with wicked whims (v well known sex mod) at all and I have so many ideas on how it could be improved!
Ive downloaded a simple mod creation tool and I’m getting a basic idea of how mods function and like.. I know how it could be done but not how to DO it, Y’know?
Basically I’d have two traits, feeder and feedee. They’d get higher relationships points with each other when preforming trait-specific interactions. They’d have related buffs n moods n whims. I’m not sure how you’d go about doing it, but I’d want feeders to be able to get buffs from watching other sims eat too (i think ik what this looks like code wise, for feeder sims the game runs a check to see if anyone is eating and assigns the buff if they are, or maybe it’s the opposite and if a sim is eating it triggers the code? This seems more efficient but the mod builder seems to suggest it’s the first method). And then the integration with wicked whims would be like,, specific sex animations and ACTUALLY!
Wicked whims animations needs a whole fucking overhaul okay so I’m imagining a feature that adds specific kinks (some modders have done this and they rock but I need more!) but then connects animations with those kinks so if a sim has a “likes bdsm” trait they’ll use animations tagged as bdsm animations. Rn the animations are really just whatever you choose rather than making any sense for the sims themselves.
Aaa someday I would really like to figure this out bc I have SO MANY IDEAS!

Small talk

“You found it, sir?” You asked him, your husband nodded and you smirked ever so slightly.
Everyone looked at him in shock, waiting for orders.
“Me and general L/N will go out to the base. Along with your squad for backup, just in case. He looked at one of the squad leaders, they all nodded.
“I am expecting general leia organa to be there as well, so be aware. Me and L/N will be going in by ourselves, and you stay outside, unless I say otherwise. Got it?”
The squad going with nodded along, following orders and beginning to prepare to leave.
You followed Ben to his personal ship, and he led the squad to the base.
“Kylo. Since your moms gonna-“
“I told you, I don’t want to talk about it. We are going to go in there, storm the base, and kill everyone in it.”
You sighed, a small sliver of you wished that you could meet his mom.
You grew up in the dark side, practicing and training since birth practically. Ben was 23 when you met him, when he became Kylo Ren.
Quickly, you both became friends. He took a liking to you for months, not saying anything until you said something first.
And now, you were about 3 years married, 3 years you both had dated.
You stood up when you had landed, he stared down at the helmet in his lap, thumb moving up and down on it as it stared back in his eyes.
You looked at him, putting a hand on his shoulder and a soft smile, giving him a quick kiss.
He stood up, putting on his mask and you both walked out.
He pulled out his saber, ignoring the many alarms. You pulled out your own. Men came rushing towards you both with guns and such, trying to shoot you both.
You blocked them with the sabers, stabbing whoever dared to do such things with it smoothly and quickly.
Kylo knew you could defend yourself, but he felt rage at whoever tried to do that. Shoot for him, not her! Idiots. He thought, as he sliced through the resistance members.
The doors started to close, you both glanced at each other and knew what to do.
———-
“How’d they find us?” Her voice was anxious, as she walked through the base.
“We don’t know. We think that someone is spying for them.”
“And it’s Ben and who?”
“The girl is known as Y/n Ren. They’re married. Apparently she’s some powerful general, no one talks about her because they’re scared. Of her and K- Ben.”
Her eyes widened at that. “Married? I have daughter in law? Guess I was never invited.” She mumbled, looking at the camera footage of you and Kylo slicing through the doors.
“Get everyone off of here. Now.”
The boy nodded, taking off and going to get everyone off.
She stayed, standing and waiting. Once everyone was off, she put up all the doors around the base.
“Ben.” She said, standing in front of him now.
You followed behind him, you threw your lightsaber up and down, and twirled it around. He gave you a glare, and looked back at the woman in front of him.
You stared at her now, and she looked back at you.
“Guessing you’re Y/n.”
“Don’t talk to her.” He said, voice threatening and modulated.
“Sure am. Guessing you’re-“
“That’s enough.” He said sternly, he didn’t want the small talk.
“What do you want, Ben?”
“It’s Kylo.”
“Take off your mask, Ben.”
He sighed, and did so.
“You were always busy. At meetings or stupid things. I hated it. God, I hated it. I was lonely, and it wasn’t until I found the dark side, until I found her that I wasn’t lonely.” He circled around her like prey, and she followed him around. His guard was up as always.
You watched the whole thing, in awe of him.
“You left me alone, it’s your fault. Everything is your fault.” He pointed the red lightsaber at her, tears welled in her eyes as she looked at his son.
“It was you.” He pointed it at her again, stopping his tracks. He stood in front of her, and stepped over to her.

hai!! im just curious on what your take is on c!ranboos enderwalk. thats a bit vague actually . like i mean what did you view it as? cus i know some people see it as morally grey, a different part of them entirely, etc. sorry if that doesnt make sense i just havent heard many people's opinion on it lol
ok this is a big and difficult question because ultimately we don’t have a conclusive answer in canon . so i’m gonna synthesize how i interpret what we do know.
i firmly believe that ranboo’s enderwalk state is, well, just ranboo. i think it’s a matter of what memories he has access to at a given point in time, how he acts on those memories, and it’s not nearly as black and white and ‘enderwalking’ and ‘not’.
there are things he knows, and doesn’t know that he knows, things he’s done that he doesn’t remember, and critically, he has relationships with people that he does not know about. it’s not as simple as enderwalking off-stream and not onstream, because we have examples of him acting on information he doesn’t usually have onstream and he has forgotten things he did while fully aware and not under duress (the shulker box deal with foolish, which he didn’t remember later when asked about it during the lessons stream).
it’s implied in some places that it’s a cyclical thing (in the arg, one of the pages refers to ‘the enderwalkers’ as ‘circadian’ (referring to circadian rhythms/sleep cycles)<-i think this is still sort of speculation but people tested it with the font layered over the crossed out section and it fit, arg also deals strongly with the clock motif, clock ticking and stopwatch as teasers for the arg, etc) though its also able to be triggered manually through strong emotions, pain, and fear. (splash water bottle, dream smile). Z claims uncertainly that it may be genetic, and their writings imply that ranboo isn't the only one though there's no suggestions as to where these other enderwalkers may be.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
it oftentime feels like while he's enderwalking he has access to more memories--though it might simply be different memories. he for sure has access to more information about his past (eg. he remembers ender entirely sometimes, while most of the times we see him on screen he's in the process of relearning it, or is at least much more subtle about knowing it.) At times he acts on fully subconscious memories, like when he built the cobblestone end city over l'manhole without realizing exactly what it was or why.
what i think is most important to this understanding though, is that he is SO consistent in what he wants and believes. the things that change are who he knows and associates with, and what he remembers. but ultimately, he has the same goal. he just acts on it differently. people not sides, stopping conflict, being a mediator, ‘one happy family’. these ideas are something he consistently believes in all the time. it’s the context that changes, whether he’s working with dream on the community house, or with tommy and tubbo to kill dream, or wilbur and hitting on 16, he is willing to take extreme measures to pursue these goals.
Tumblr media
IMPORTANT TO NOTE: i don’t believe the purple eyes enderwalk trope is strictly diegetic. we know for a fact that ranboo is visibly indistinguishable while enderwalking and not, as we have seen him ‘enderwalk’ on other people’s streams, and he has interacted with people ‘in’ and ‘out’ of the state without them recognizing any difference. (cphil, cfoolish, and cawesamdude as some notable examples)
TLDR: It's just Ranboo, with more, or different, or all of his memories.
(link is to a clip of c!ranboo saying as much based on the information he had at the time)

Pssst if you’re still doing the shipping bingo, how would team rancher/solidaritek fill your bingo board?
Tumblr media
OFC. RANCHERSSS ALWAYS AND FOREVER 😭😭
ok but.. real talk i think ranchers is like. my number two "I actually ship this no strings or footnotes attached" ship right after ethubs.
I am usually not one to be moved by ships that are just "they are fun and healthy together and love eachother" but oh GOD the ranchers. See I think the thing is they just.. make sense for eachother even if you don't expect it until the point they realise they're soulmates.
Jimmy's situation has been talked about to hell and back at this point but Tango is also very out of his element in the life series. He says himself that pvp is not his specialty and he doesn't have the time or resources to make his skill set shine. So he ends up either somewhat ignored or outcasted for most of the games. (<-- fyi fun fact this is where the whole 'mech pilot tango' idea came from lol. i feel like he'd have a dva-style mech outside of the life series)
In particular i LOVE his relationship with team BEST and I NEED desperately to talk abt it more. the way he's constantly talked over by his own teammates, intimidated, asked to sacrifice his own lives for their sake, "tango's Easy", etc. etc.
‘Cause inside, nothing’s fine It should be clear to prying eyes But I won’t let the feelings See the light So tell me, why should I even try? I’m frozen away in time
(Koala, Will Stetson)
They both have this habit of hiding their own insecurities behind a facade of boisterousness, but no matter how much either of them puff out their chests and raise their voices, their message of "please take me seriously" never seems to get through.
The Ranchers are just.. two losers against the world. and they inspire confidence within the other that they can't find in themselves. and yes the world forces them apart but you can Feel that influence they've had on one another in the background.
Guess I went and caved I wonder, is there another way? Because I want to believe That one day I’ll be okay So now, I’ll give it another try I can finally see with a clearer mind Even if the bumps in the road Might try to stop me, Still it’ll be alright Keeping it inside Isn’t clearing up the sky So you tighten your hand in mine Following the light like a cute Koala Laughing in stride
Plus I, uh... Unhinged but I have this thing with the life smp where there's this running theme throughout the story about how it doesn't really matter who wins or who dies first.
Because for every epic battle and every tear-jerking death there was fun and laughter and stupid, trivial drama before and in between and those little moments may not be as memorable or written down in history but they're what makes the series enjoyable. Yes, we're all gonna die, but isn't it cool that we laughed with eachother and made dumb jokes and adopted a frog and said "I love you" on the way there?
j-just like real life. life smp. evangelion moment im sorry
Though both of us will die one day Though this life is useless anyway When you’re here by my side, you make me feel like it’ll be okay And yet we laughed despite it all At this life which has no meaning at all Two lonely and broken souls leaning on each other’s sides I’m glad that you’re you, that I’m me, and for us two I’m kinda glad that you’re evil too When the day starts anew, hope I spend it with you I’m glad that I fell in love with you
(I'm Glad You're Evil Too, Rachie/Anthong translyrics)
The Ranchers epitomize that.
They are doomed. They both know this, I think. Neither of them can fight, they're left begging for scraps by session 2, no one on the server takes either of them seriously and they lost a life literally like 10 minutes into the first episode.
But they built a home together, raised livestock, stood up for eachother. and they were happy together.
and isn't that what really matters?
and neither of them are even aware of how much they really meant to the other one. the game ends. tango tells jimmy to go home. go. they certainly don't break up to the extent of Some Other Pairings In This Series but i like to think tango distances himself, thinking jimmy would be happier with his friends and not stuck with him. jimmy thinks the same. but they still wave hi and call eachother rancher and now they're running a salad restaurant together or something i guess.
It's just.. everything that gets the two of them condemned and made fun of in their other relationships is what's Celebrated in theirs. They can just be themselves, mistakes and silliness and imperfections at all, with no pressure to perform amazing feats and make amazing stuff and I think that's great.
um yeah i like ranchers.

I would love to hear your thoughts on the symbolism and game design of omori
This is suchh an old ask im sorry it took me so long to get my thoughts tgt let alone write them down hh everything’s under the cut bc there’s a Lot and tysm for enabling me 🙏🏻
just a heads up I’m not gonna talk much about the characters themselves bc there’s already plenty of analysis out there for them- what I am gonna get to tho is the general game itself and a bit of the music. And bc OMORI is a game that covers heavy topics, please be aware of this before you continue reading!
Tumblr media
So ofc I gotta start with the first place omori wakes up in — white space, just a simple rectangle on the floor with the essentials within arm’s reach, no responsibilities and no one to bother you. I LOVE minimalistic stuff like this- something so simple can can make you feel like you’re in both the most peaceful and uncanny place in the world. Also the black bulb being a symbol of repression, opposite of a lit bulb being a symbol of a new idea (thank you fandom wiki for this point) is just 👌🏻. And the fact that omori’s friends are right next door (literally called neighbour’s room) if he ever gets lonely shows how they’ve always been there for him, and in turn how much he depends on them.
I think the game does a wonderful job of depicting what escapism is like- Daydreaming of a world full of your own ocs, adventuring through it with your best friends and being the hero of the story where everything goes right for you. But of course this fantasy can’t hold forever as the real world starts to catch up, with stuff like Something appearing in places reminding omori of what happened, red space entrances throughout the story (the ones before the main red space debut as omori sits on the throne), and ofc the moment basil drops the photograph at the start. Side note, I like how Something always disappearing so quickly shows how desperate omori is to repress it, like quickly shoving problems under a rug. Or maybe im reading too much into it and it’s just to add to the creepy factor lol. Also this is one of the games that does mixed media SO well- combining digital 2d art with real life materials like sketching and scanning the animations, clay models for Somethings, real life photos drawn over and filtered etc, it really suits the theme of having to balance the fictional world and the real world if that makes sense. Also the way some scenes deliberately leave in the crumpled paper texture!! Especially for messages about not friends giving up on each other-- its almost like those were thrown away in the trash and picked back up again. Quite the parallel to how sunny locked himself away for four years due to depression and guilt for what he’s done, thinking his friends would never forgive him, then eventually finally coming out of his house and giving himself a chance with reconnecting with them.
Ok here’s where the heavier themes come in so please please stop reading if you’re not comfortable with them! [tw: suicide (or at least implications of it)]
game design time! i absolutely love it when games use the game mechanics themselves to be a part of storytelling- and this game does it with the stab function. I actually got to know this game through watching playthroughs, and at the first forced transition usually people do whatever they can think of to avoid having to press the button, before very reluctantly realising that they don’t have a choice. As the game goes on, players start getting more and more familiar with it, using it to get back to the real world or bc of forced resets and so on. Before long this basically becomes routine and players get so used to it that they don’t even hesitate to press it anymore. After all, nothing bad actually happens, right..? This mechanic gets used so much more in black space, but this time it’s very prominently presented as an escape route, something to get out of stressful situations, something that helps. you might even be relieved to see that option be available to you. And I think that’s terrifying— considering that this is a representation of how.. unpleasant thoughts can go from being unfathomable to something that feels like a natural/normal occurrence. i don’t think I’ve seen any other game that captures this kind of thought process(? there’s probably a better term for this) to the level that OMORI does and im so so glad that the devs are bringing these mental health topics to light.
I’d also love to talk about black space but I think this post does it better than I ever could haha, also black space 2 I love you sm im a sucker for out-of-bounds-but-not-really type of areas (yknow like Undertale’s fun value rooms and test rooms), it’s like hitting the jackpot for easter eggs and subtle lore aughh <3
And I can’t talk about OMORI without talking about the music!! I think we can all agree that Duet KILLS. the high notes as the happiest scenes show on screen………the way the piano is the one that starts the song off and it ends with only the violin……… my emotions man. what if I started crying!!!!! (i did)
Clean Slate is one of my top songs- there’s so much emotion in this and it’s the epitome of acceptance and letting go of guilt while also giving the feeling that you’re in a hospital (ig that’s kinda the point but for such a short song to pinpoint a feeling AND setting so accurately is so grragjgh….)
Other big favs are It Means Everything, Chaos Assembly, Tee-Hee Time, Puddles, Snow Forest and Dear Little Brother :) and actually a lot of others as well but id be listing half the soundtrack and more if I go on
In conclusion OMORI is such a well designed game, I love it and its messages sm it means a lot to me personally, and writing this made me feel like im back in English class again

Ok as per my last post. This is Long and very much about my feelings so uh don’t read it if you don’t want to. Also I’m aware I sound genujneky crazy for half of this I’m just really really mentally ill in ways I don’t talk about here at all and now I am sharing them and it’s. A little scary but oh well. The system stuff is the stuff I’m most concerned about right now to be honest bc it effects my day to day and if anyone has any kind words or thoughts on what to do I’ll be happy to listen
Please read my previous post if you’re mad /gen I don’t think I say anything bad here but I have really bad morality ocd so like uhm I am scared to post this!!! Prev post
Also I’m very sorry that the prose is terrible to read and my spelling is shit I have dyspraxia which is a coordination thing and it’s worse rn
The maybe I was boring album came on yesterday while I was cleaning and I had to stop what I was doing and turn it off halfway through because I just couldn’t stop hearing an admission. I wasn’t even sad I was just. So done with it. I still am just kinda like. God I hope Shelby is doing ok with all this being public now. I’m glad she was able to heal like she said and I’m glad she made the video dude.
I almost got his lyrics tattooed if that’s testament to how much I loved his early music. It’s not connecting in my brain that this music that’s been apart of my life for like 4 years and helped me through so much was made by an abuser.
But like, in retrospect you can see it. I can’t bear to delete ycgma off my mp3 player bc I related to his songs so much as an abused lonely teenager but I also can’t bare to listen to it. I learned the fall on my guitar as my final exam and I used to repeat his lyrics to myself to cope with abuse and I wish I could still love these songs. I dressed like his dsmp character bc I thought it made me look cool. Which is lame as fuck to admit now lol
Originally I was planning on pirating them and I like, can’t especially after that manipulative ass statement. How much was an act? I don’t know. I don’t know if I’m a bad person because I still kinda do want to listen to that music again. I still want to feel that safe but I know I won’t feel that way anymore.
with dsmp stuff I think I’m going to be still able to look back fondly on it generally and I don’t think I’ll ever stop. The community was what made it and the community is what I loved, and i still do. I don’t think I’m going to reblog art of him specifically but if he’s in it I might. Idk. My policy on dream fanart is if he’s not alone in the art and it’s dsmp or mcc related I reblog so I guess I’ll continue that here. Im sorry if that sounds callous I just. Am not prepared to talk about this so I’m going back and forth
And like. We also have a wilbur factive/fictive and we have for years now and nobody in our system knows how to feel about that. He formed to fill the role of a big brother (I was being heavily emotionally neglected at that point and needed someone to be there for me) and protector from my parents abuse. Obviously, he is entirely separate from his source now bc alters change a lot for me but how we picture him is still wilbur. he’s literally just some guy now but grappling with that connection is fucked up dude it’s weird. He’ll probably further distance himself but it still fucking sucks and I don’t know how to communicate the cognitive dissonance we had to push through bc our brain struggled at first to make sense of how this person who we liked so much that he became the template for a Protector to shield us from the emotional neglect and abuse, essentially, is a terrible person. I’m sorry I know people who aren’t systems, and some who are ngl, will find this fuckibg nuts and I get that but we’re a very very internal person like I just. Kinda am with us as a system a lot and nobody else. It feels like my safe space that I’ve created in my head has been marred. Also. uhm. Our alters speak in distinct voices so it’s bad bad for me rn and we are trying to fix it. I know I know fictives and factives arenttheir source but that doesn’t change that it makes me feel gross. I’m rambling rn I’m sorry. Support Shelby.

“i was thinking you could come for dinner, maybe?” you casually asked, glancing at frank. he offered to come with you to the supermarket, you two were walking side by side. “tonight?” he turned to look at you.
“well, yeah? i mean, if you’re free,” you cleared your throat, looking for maxine’s favourite cereals. “that’s fine with me, but you’re sure?” he smirked, noticing you were getting nervous. “i just… max is good and smart, but sometimes she’s too much curious, i don’t want her to make you feel embarrassed or anything,” you shrugged, finally meeting his eyes.
“dad, can you help me chose?” max rushed into the kitchen, showing you a pair of scrunchies. you turned towards her and you picked the blue one. “that matches your outfit more,” you smiled and then helped her with her hair.
“thank you!” she run out of the kitchen to go back into he room, so you finished setting the table. you wanted everything to be perfect, you even put on a shirt. “just breathe,” you whispered to yourself, closing your eyes for a second.
you heard the doorbell and were about to go and open the door when max rushed to open it before you. “i got it, daddy!” she said and opened the door, a bit taken aback when she found herself in front of frank’s tall figure. you were right behind her, taking a deep breath.
“hi, frank,” you smiled at him and put a hand on max’s shoulder. “maxine, this is frank… frank this is maxine,” you introduced them and nervously waited for max’s reaction.
“nice to meet you, maxine,” frank smiled at her, then glanced at you for a moment. “friends call me max,” she said, crossing her arms. “are you a friend from work?” she asked quickly. “not exactly,” frank chuckled.
you gently pushed max aside, so frank could walk inside. you closed the door and noticed max was quietly analysing frank appearance.
“i got a bottle of wine,” frank said, showing you the bottle in his hands. “oh, right… thank you,” you smiled and took it from him, walking towards the table.
they followed you and max kept glancing at frank, who tried to not make her notice he was aware of her staring at him.
“you guys can sit, i’ll be right back with the food,” you quickly entered the kitchen and filled the three plates with the pasta.
once you were sitting down, you started eating. frank cleared his throat, glancing at max who decided to sit right in front of him.
“how old are you?” your face quickly turned to max, she was waiting for frank to respond before continuing eating her food. “thirty seven,” he said and kept eating peacefully. “i’m seven,” she told him, confidently. “your dad said so,” frank chuckled, noticing max was a bit surprised. “he said things about me??” max turned to you and you nodded.
“yep, told me you’re a curious little girl and that you like to play guitar, is that true?” max nodded, resuming eating. she was probably trying to get an impression of frank.
“dad bought me one last christmas,” she smiled, more relaxed. “i play it too,” frank replied, max’s face lit up and started talking about guitar lessons and all.
you simply watched them, enjoying the interaction. you were glad max was getting along with frank, you were a bit worried about her finding it strange that he was invited out of nowhere and not really trusting him.
“the food was amazing,” frank was helping you clean the dishes. “i was about to order the pizza, because i thought the pasta was bad,” you confessed, feeling your face heat up. “i doubt it,” frank smiled before kissing you, surprising you.
you kissed him back, trying not to wet his t-shirt with your hands. he playfully sucked on your lower lip before gently biting it, making you laugh.
“can we watch a movie now?” max’s voice startled you, you almost dropped a plate. you parted from frank, embarrassed, and met max’s face. she was standing there with one of her dvd in hand.
“baby, i don’t know if frank–” he interrupted you. “sure, i’d be happy to watch something with you,” he smiled at her. “yuppie!” she ran into the living room to get everything ready.
“now, castle… are you enjoying my daughter’s company more than mine?” you asked, faking offence. “maybe?” he laughed before kissing you again. “i’m so happy she accepted you, yeah? asking to watch a movie together is a great sign,” you confessed, before kissing frank’s face.
“i’m happy you wanted me to meet her,” he muttered and seeing him smile so much made your heart swell. you quickly finished the dishes, then reached the living room and sat on the couch to watch the movie together.
maxine was focused on the disney movie, you and frank got easily distracted by each other and he tried to play with your hair multiple times. max was sitting between you two so you couldn’t protest without disturbing her.
you gave in and after a while decided to take his hand into yours, sitting more comfortably to keep holding it for the rest of the movie.
near the movie’s ending, frank noticed max fell asleep against his side, while her legs were resting on your thighs.
“oh, i’m sorry,” you apologised and gently moved and took max into your arms. “about what?” frank chuckled lowly, watching you. “she fell asleep on you,” you whispered and started walking towards her room. “i go get her to bed,” you said.
frank decided to turn off the tv and put away the dvd, while waiting for you to come back.
“daddy,” max called before you could close her door. “yes?” you turned quickly, worried. “i like frank… can we invite him again tomorrow?” she asked with a sleepy face, her eyes half closed. “o-of course, baby. have a goodnight,” you smiled happily, you gave her one last glance and closed the door.
you reached frank and noticed he was waiting by the main door. you hugged him and hid your face against his chest. “god, i’m so glad,” you said, sighing deeply. “i’m frank,” he smirked and caressed your back slowly.
“i mean, i’m glad she likes you,” you met his eyes and smiled widely, noticing he was smiling too.
“she wants you to come again for dinner, so things were smoother than expected,” you explained and he nodded. “well, i already love her so i’ll happily come again,” he said and your heart probably exploded at his confession. “i love you,” you said before kissing him, circling his neck with your arms while frank put his hands on your hips, kissing you back.
an : reblogs & feedback are super appreciated <3 if you wanna share your thoughts about frank hit my inbox !!

(I'M NOT A PROFESSIONAL I JUST LIKE TO RESEARCH SOME TOPICS SO PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I’M WRONG ON ANYTHING) Not ALL autistics/adhders either flap their arms or leg bounce as stims (Yes these stims are common with autism/adhd but it's not the ONLY stim they do and definitely not a “If they don't do this, they don't have that”). First of all those two are both vestibular/proprioceptive stims, they are basically one ‘genre’ of stims, there are 7 types of stims:Visual, auditory, tactile, oral and olfactory/smell, and vestibular and proprioceptive. (Side note: According to the DSM-5 you don't even have to stim to be autistic since stimming is part of category B.) <-(also many neurotypicals also stim so please don’t take this as anything other than explaining different types of stims. Although people with autism and/or ADHD that do stim do it more often) So how i’ll lay it out is define what the types of stims actually mean and examples as to not confuse anyone and provide further information on the topic :D First up we have: Visual stimming: Visual stimming is any repetitive behavior that is done via visual (our eyes). For example, staring at moving things (fans spinning, cars driving past, people running), blinking really fast, using kaleidoscopes and even just moving your fingers in front of your eyes! Auditory stimming: Auditory stimming is any repetitive behavior that uses hearing and/or sound. It involves making sound or hearing sound! So that can be listening to the same song over and over again to humming a tune to blocking and unblocking your ears really quick. Tactile stimming Tactile stimming is any repetitive behavior that uses your sense of touch. Like rubbing/scratching your hands, stroking soft fabrics, biting the inside of your cheeks and twirling/pulling your hair.
Oral stimming Oral stimming is any repetitive behavior involving chewing. Pretty self explanatory, I don’t think I can explain this further lol. Examples include biting straws and chewing necklaces. Olfactory stimming Olfactory stimming is any repetitive behavior that uses your sense of smell. This can be repeatedly smelling candles, sniffing fresh bread and even sniffing washed clothing. Vestibular stimming Vestibular stimming is any repetitive behavior that involves movement and/or balance! It can be spinning, rocking, jumping and even swinging! It could also be simply pacing or throwing things too! (You can tell what type of stim I like the most XD). Proprioceptive stimming Proprioceptive stimming is any repetitive behavior that involves weight and/or spacial awareness. Like using weighted blankets, bear hugs, and physical pressure. ((essay go brrr)) ((I WROTE TOO MUCH IM GENUINELY SO SORRY THIS IS LIKE 400 WORDS IM SO SORRY IM SO SORRY IM SO SORRY))
I'M ALSO NOT A PROFESSIONAL I CANT CORRECT YOU-
I (again :( ) can't say much to the topic itself, just that it really was a pleasure to read :3 I think I might be actually using tactile stimming, in situations when I'm nervous I'm like, touching my nose? Idk it sounds weird but I think it's a really good way to 'get back' when I have a derealization (I think it's called that) and it's just nice to do that. ((I noticed that I was doing this before but never considered it a stim tbh))
And you like vestibular stimming? :3 (it's not a real question, I think you chose anon for a reason ((but you can still answer if you are comfortable! C: )) I sometimes do the rocking, but only when I'm bored so I don't think it's a stim-
So dear anon (I think I know who you are >:]]) thank you so much for explaining the different types of stims! It really is nice getting to know a topic better, especially when you are interested in it :D
((ALSO DON'T BE SORRY I REPEAT: DON'T BE SORRYYYY YOU JUST SAVED ME 52 MINUTES OF BOREDOM I LOVE YOU AND I ALSO SPENT TIME GOOD ON MY PHONE FOR ONCE SO DON'T BE SORRY))

sorry to be sending so much i sent the abby and click!oc thing but i just love this series sm because i do think oc has some glaringly negative traits that i can see BUT at the same time i hold a lot of empathy for her, because i know what it’s like to lash out on the people that you care for and push people away. having *trauma* causes you to have responses that you can’t even make sense of yourself at times. i also think it takes a lot of self awareness and also care for yourself to realize the way you react to things isn’t normal and also to look back and reflect on the way you treated people, esp. your friends isn’t OK, regardless of how much shit you went through, and make an extra step to go therapy. hurt people hurt people sometimes, even if that wasn’t your intention.
that’s why i’m all for click!oc realizing that yeah, her trauma is the reason for her reactions and it is valid, but also realizing but even with all that growth and change, you aren’t owed forgiveness or owed anything actually, and it might be for the better. all you can do is work on yourself and try to be better and do better in the future, and i hope she does forgive herself and doesn’t wallow in what could have been but also isn’t just negating that as well. in the nicest possible way: the world can’t stop because of your trauma and it’s up to you to do better and be better, and sometimes you do have to kinda hit rock bottom to realize your behavior isn’t normal or adjusted, which kinda seems like oc has.
she kind of reminds me of cassie from euphoria lol i love how complex your oc is because i love her but also want to shake her and tell her she has do better and also give her a hug. sorry if this came across as harsh lol but merry Christmas Eve or happy holidays if you don’t celebrate!! - 💋
IM SO LATE FUCK MEEE NEVER APOLGIZE I LOVE HEARING WHAT YALL THINK PLELALSLEKELEALSK YOURE SOOOO ON POINT LKME OMMMGGVVVV ILYYYY

16, 17, 19, 31
thank u for the asks!! (and sorry im answering like days later lol)
16: do you write in the margins of your books?
I tried that, but I get selfconscious and cringe at whatever the past-me has written if I reread the books, so I don’t anymore. Also it kind of took me out of the story bc I just kept trying to think of ”cool things to write” instead of just reading
17: do you highlight in your books?
I used to but I don’t anymore for the same reasoning. It just becomes too school-ish for me, I wanna read to not think about things and not be aware that I’m actively reading
19: do you fold the pages or use a bookmark?
Bookmark, but that’s a very loose definition of it. Bc anything even remotely flat that’s nearby when I stop reading? That is a bookmark now. Favorites are those cardboard coasters bars have (that I always take with me bc idk, convenient and it’s not like they reuse those), receipts, scrap pieces of paper etc. If can’t find any nearby, I just leave it like /\ somewhere (like open but face down?? Idk how to describe that and yea it’s not good for the spine but I don’t rly care too much)
31: how many books are on your current tbr?
Too many. According to my goodreads 141, but tbf those are all the books I’ve wanted to read the past like 10 years so I’m guessing a lot of them I wouldn’t rly care about anymore. Idk, I don’t rly have an ”official” tbr anymore bc it’d be too long to make any sense of

share ur devious thought with the class. I am bored, drunk, and interested
ahem . williams brain rot below the cut. and i do mean williams in a uh relatively broad sense . sorryyyyyy
anyways . my brain combined my last reblog plus the video w alex and logan playing pong where james leaves and is basically like be good plus MANY instances . of general james vowles-ness. that made me more deranged in general
into a like . sorry i’m like too aware of my own brain im shaking myself like a dog trying to say things without immediately cringing shamefully away. if only i too was tipsy. also brain to words is hard
OH AND I SAW THIS TWEET W THIS REPLY
Tumblr media Tumblr media
anyways . cuck chair james but it’s not cuck chair it’s more like . director who’s trying to make this mildly sleazy adult film Comfortable And Enjoyable For Everyone Involved And Then Gets In Too Deep..’s chair . except this isn’t an AU lol i’m just trying to express the VIBES. just him talking alex and logan thru fucking basically. this sounds so bland but if only i could beam the images in my brain to the screen yall i am an extremely visual thinker and it takes ages to translate onto paper 😭. um more specifics without getting too deep into it . alex is sat upright back to the headboard and logan is straddling his lap . (very important info. 2 me). direction but also praise . no touching but voice and gaze as a physical presence. etc etc . james’ voice is so fucking akdhskhd ykwim.
this was spectacularly nonsensical not even that devious and i need to GO TO BED but i hope u get the gist anon
edit: also sorry the reason i brought up the ping pong video was specifically the idea of like “be good while im gone” and taking that into some uh . new contexts

Hi hi!! I’m getting into drawing humans and I would love to see your process for your lined and coloured digital pieces! I would also love some advice for drawing in any nature if you can~
No problem at all!! Sorry this took a minute to get to, but I wanted to get a good drawing to show a step by step process for lol. And since I’m extremely aware of the fact that my handwriting’s crap lol, under the cut is a transcription!
NOTE: I’M NOT AN EXPERT. THERE ARE TOTALLY BETTER EXPLANATIONS OUT THERE LOL
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Roughs, imo, help just understand wtf you’re doing lol. They don’t have to be neat in any sense, and they just serve the purpose of you understanding how you’re gonna go about whatever
Tumblr media
I am literally insane and do lines in one layer 99% of the time. And usually my “lines” are what most artists consider their sketch. I’m just an impatient artist fhfhdbfb
Tumblr media
In my experience, changing the lines after helps find spots that were missed when coloring much easier! Whether that’s with the fill bucket or by hand, it’s super annoying when it misses stuff. Happens to the best of us
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If I could marry a stage of art, it’s these two. I feel like I black out and wake up when I do them, but they’re so fun. I apologize for the last one not really having advice, but it seriously is up to the artist on what to do here! I add gradients with different layer types to make colors pop, but the colors can change depending on where they are or even what character it is. There’s no set-in-stone advice there, at least in my experience, and that can go for both stages 4 and 5.
AND I GOT A HUGE TIP FOR DRAWING HUMANS: REFERENCES!!! USE THEM!!!! I am a big fucking idiot for not using them more, since a kid I’ve been resistent and IDK WHY, IM A BIG STUPID IDIOT, USE REFERENCES PLEASE. It helps so much and makes your art make sense. By that, I mean that the gestures are so much clearer and everything. Your best reference? YOU!! Take a photo of yourself doing a stupid-ass pose! I did that for my recent animation, where this exact frame was taken from me, posing in front of my camera!
Tumblr media
(His fuckin pancakes :,( fhshhd im sorry)
Do not be scared to use references, please. I beg of you, I beg of ANYONE reading this. USE REFERENCES. TAKE STUPID CRINGE PHOTOS OF YOURSELF FOR YOUR ART.
Hope that helped!! And again I am not a professional and none of this is saying to copy me exactly. It’s purposefully leaving out some of my process so you can explore your own approach at drawing humans! I wish you luck, anon!! :Dcc
Transcript:
1) “Rough”. Note: A sketch doesn’t have to be this defined!! Gets shape and definition; understanding where limbs / hair / clothes go, consistent dynamics. General understanding of what to do, basically. Pointing at dog face: Wasn’t in final, and that’s okay! (Extra image: I wouldn’t worry about this, but this just shows how the dynamics try to flow. Basically just up lol)

2) Lines/Cleanup. Multiple stages can happen!!! Defines shapes… And that all I kinda do loll. Lineart differs from person to person! I personally try not to use the stabilizer unless I need to, just to give it a hand-drawn look! Though that definitely has its downsides… This part takes me the longest…
3) Flats. I usually don’t put too much work into this step. I don’t change lines until after flats! Pointing to dog face: No more mouth! Pointing to bottom image: For stylistic purposes, I put the highlights from JJK (Jujutsu Kaisen) here too

Me again! I wanna apologize now in case I say anything that I shouldn’t in this, I’m not trying to be offensive or belittle you I’m just new to this kind of identification, but I would like to understand it better so I can be more considerate about it in the future. So here’s a few questions, you don’t have to answer if it makes you uncomfortable!
What goes on with the others while one of them is fronting or co-fronting? Is it like you choose to let one of them take over your consciousness? Are they there in the background?
is it like constantly having other voices in your head? Like that each have their own personalities and thoughts and such? And if so, is it fun, or is it overwhelming to have all their different thoughts battling each other out?
im not sure how to phrase this, but what happens when you let one or the other front? Do you feel like you’re switching thoughts and personalities? Is it like having a bunch of separate people/creatures in your head that take turns using your physical body to express themselves?
when you co-front, is it like both of them have control over your physical body but are talking to eachother, or rapidly switching from one to another, or one of them takes over and is relaying information from the other?
I really am sorry if this is intrusive or offensive in any way, I know literally nothing about this so I would love to learn more, but I understand if you don’t want to answer any or all of these. I’ll prob ask more to each of them later, but first I would like to develop a basic understanding of how it works so I can be respectful. Thank you!
it's cool, I understand not a lot of people know much about plurality and it's never a bad thing to be curious :)
it's different for everyone. for our system, I can't really fully let go of front so I don't lose consciousness or anything, I'm always fully aware but sometimes may be really dissociate-y when someone else fronts. it's like being on autopilot kind of, like watching your body do things but you aren't doing them consciously. I have struggled with dissociation all my life so the autopilot thing is familiar for me and doesn't always mean someone else is fronting, it's just similar. when someone else is fronting it's more like the autopilot is being controlled by a specific personality other than my own, I guess. for our system, we can choose to let someone else front and that's usually how it goes, but sometimes I will dissociate because of stress or something and someone else will take over for a bit until I feel better. it's very easy for me to take front again when I want to/need to.
I don't hear them constantly, but once in a while someone will pop up with a thought, but usually it's me talking to them and they respond.
I guess I already kinda answered this but yeah it does kind of feel like I'm just changing personalities, maybe because we're co-fronting but also I do feel my headmates aren't Super separate from me as a person like with some systems, we're like in between multiple (multiple people in one body) and median (one person with different aspects of themselves formed into different personalities) I think. I hope that makes sense to you!
mostly the last one! when we co-front, it's usually 1 person who is mainly fronting while the other(s) is watching and easily able to take front again or do an action. like, if kai is fronting we'll be internally talking (if I feel like talking, sometimes it's just him talking to me and letting me know what he's doing) and if he's cleaning the house I could control our body for a moment to move a plushie to where I want it and then let him do the rest. it's usually very blurry and sometimes I don't know what actions are mine and what are the other headmate's. also they tend to know what I want and I tend to know what they want because like I said, we aren't entirely separate people. they have their own thoughts and opinions but we rarely really disagree, thankfully lol. would suck to disagree with someone you're stuck with bc they live in your head lmao. I'd say kai is the most separate from us because he started as an imaginary friend but usually he's the voice of reason when I don't want to listen or take care of myself.
all of this is personal to our system of course, if you'd like to learn more you might want to do some research or ask other systems :) we appreciate the questions though, it's fun answering them!

i agree with your general assessment of susie & noelle's respective issues but i don't agree with your assertion that these are "red flags" or signs of a potentially "toxic" relationship. i think you're looking at it through the wrong lens.
it seems pretty clear to me that the whole point of susie's character is that she lashes out with cruelty and pushes others away because she's been made to believe she's unworthy of love or respect, and although she's learning to let herself be open to friendship she will likely still have instances where she hurts those she cares about through acts of fear or defensiveness. this may be a source of conflict but that's not the same as being toxic.
meanwhile noelle, who has a strong fixation on fear and danger – and was originally drawn to susie because of this – is in the process of learning to decide the right course of action for herself. while she may have felt too helpless and confused to do anything about susie's previous treatment of kris, and wanted to put herself in harm's way with susie (but seemingly never actually acted on this, due to aforementioned sense of helplessness/lack of autonomy), she's gradually working on feeling more capable and confident. i think part of her process will be developing the ability to meet susie where she's at, as an equal, as opposed to seeing susie (as she sees most things) as a source of fear or an external, uncontrollable force acting upon her, if that makes sense.
i get the sense that their growing friendship will revolve around susie helping noelle accept that it's okay to be something other than a doormat, while noelle helps susie accept vulnerability and gentleness; in a way, both helping each other develop their sense of self-worth. again, i'm sure there will be conflict as they each have their own issues to work out and those will likely butt up against each other, but i still don't see that as the same as being "toxic," and i don't think that's the intended interpretation of their characters or relationship.
I have talked about this before and im a little tired (cause I just made dinner) so sorry if this comes across as clumsy or I dont make a coherent point, but the toxic relationship is in a less malicious sense and more in a “teenagers have a hard time navigating first love on top of the baggage” sense. Obviously the reading is that theyre meant to compliment each other and I have to be real a part of why I feel it flops is because Ralsei does it so much better in less time even just platonically, because Noelle idolises her and I honest don’t think she’s gonna stop idolising her soon. It also strikes me as a massive bad implication that Noelle is aware that what she’s doing is bad enough she wants to tell authority figures like toriel about it and Susie’s remark makes her feel sick…. And then she just doesn’t. Maybe we will see her progress on this in later chapters if I’m honest I think im gonna have a hard time changing my view on her simply because of the time gap there was in which I cemented my view. And thats okay honestly I want to think the detraction it will do to the rest of the game won’t be too big
In the end we can just agree to disagree ya know. I dont wanna be persuaded into liking dragon deer (I think my mind is set if im real, sorry. I know it’s gonna be canon and I’m not a fan) and I wont talk you into goatdragon either, this is just my blog so I rant unfiltered here lol. Thank you for sharing your perspective tho it’s interesting to read and respond to!

(1/3) hii im the anon from before, thank u for the answer, i don’t mind the length at all!! the games being old/some never translated officially and a lot of weird possible bits about Chizuru’s life before the shinsengumi being ignored bc “otome mcs are blank slates, it’s not that deep” means it’s rare for ppl to try and analyze chizuru’s mental state and I think it’s such a shame like I’m aware that they could have done so much more with chizuru’s oni nature and sword skills (kinda infuriating lol) but I love her as a narrator and I think she’s an interesting character overall, she’s babygirl❤️. Kodo is inconsistent but he always has an agenda for taking care of Chizuru (especially bad in Saito’s and in Sannan’s route)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hello again anon,
Sorry for the delay in my answer. I was very happy to receive this ask but a gap in internet connexion and some personal issues prevented me from answering it sooner.
To continue on Chizuru being emotionally isolated, yes Chizuru never thinking about getting married is what brought to my attention that something was wrong in the way she saw her own future. If all the lies Kodo fed her had been true, the most likely outcome for her life should have been to marry a man (either an assistant of her father he would have adopted, or another doctor or someone of similar social standing). I am not saying Chizuru should have been eager to get married. But, as a 16 years old girl, she should have started seriously considering it. Because it was an extremely likely scenario for how her life was going to play out.
Yet there is nothing, no dread at the idea of marrying someone, no eagerness, no annoyance at the prospect of having the same life for the rest of her life… Nothing. As if the idea had never even occurred to her. And since she did not have any other plan to replace this one we are left with what? Her staying with her father forever? How was she supposed to live if anything happened to him? It is as if she did not have any life, any future, outside of him. Something was very wrong there.
More than Chizuru's sword skills, on which I already gave my opinion when commenting on the movies (basically I am fine with Chizuru's strength not being her fighting skills and find her reluctance to enter a sword fight despite having some skills to be a perfectly valid character trait but I wished she was showed ready to use it in specific situations, in which she is defending people, more often), it is her relationship with her oni nature that frustrate me the most. Chizuru is not human, period. And she is so very not human, that she is even less human than some other oni and that makes her extra special even to oni. This discovery should be earth shattering for her, especially considering how human she is in the other sense of the word. And it is not really explored. It is explored a bit, like when her and Souji bound on their newfound 'monstrosity', but not enough to my taste. I wish Hakuouki dived into this way more than it did.
Considering what you are saying, I am sad to not have an access to Sannan' route (though I am still hoping for a Switch release of the newest translated games). Worst case scenario I will try finding it on youtube or something like this.
I am pretty sure Kodo said he was "wrong to let Chizuru have any freedom at all" in the movie. Death to Kodo! Death!!!!!!
You talk about her finding punishment (or punishing behaviors) normal and the things is I am not even sure that at first Chizuru recognized some behaviors as punishment. They are just normal behaviors to find in normal relationship. Nothing to see there. And that is why I say again: DEATH TO KODO!
Your "I can't believe he thought about my feelings 🥺" has me like 😭😂 because this is exactly how I read this scene and it is infuriating from an outside POV. This man is doing the bare minimum, THE BARE MINIMUM, and Chizuru is like "has anyone being that kind to me before?". I want to shake everyone inside the Shinsengumi, including Chizuru, like an old grandma who is not getting her way at the local farmers market.
I think Chizuru actually has a lot of potential for development as a character, besides some inconsistencies that are linked to the fact that she must fit several different 'routes', and I am very happy that we are taking time to discuss her.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
