Au where Julian is a child of divorce

Just some bullshit from the insane mv discord 😭🤣💋

Still thinking about zoro being unintentionally romantic for sanji. (Also @fanfic-fucker made me laugh so here )

Zoro being one of the very few who has ever pealed oranges for sanji ,

Zoro who feeds sanji by hand anytime he doesn’t feel good or looks sad

Zoro who makes a habit of dressing sanji himself after every encounter

Zoro giving unsolicited compliments whenever sanji shops for clothes

Zoro saying sanjis eyes are brighter than all the stars in the sky and the moon itself

Zoro always gravitating to blue when sanji asks what color looks best

Zoro telling sanji that every strand on his head is worth more than any amount of gold in namis vault

Zoro being the only person sanji lets see both eyes for a long time

Zoro who asks Robin and then Mihawk how to say words in French cause sanji let’s it slip that he sometimes misses hearing other people speak it

Zoro who thinks nothing he’s done is romantic in the slightest

He’d do anything for his crew. He’d hand feed any one of them cause luffy did for him. He dresses sanji because after a hard day and a long night spent together , his hand start to ache. When he compliments sanji he’s stating a fact , he’s saying what everyone is thinking , right ? He tells sanji blue every time cause of his eyes and he’s heard Robin say it looks good against his skin. He learns some French because he knows how lonely it is to be around so many people and have none of them speak your native tongue. None of this means he sees sanji as anything other than nakama.

He accidentally shatters sanji’s heart when the cook finally digs up the courage to ask ‘do you love me ?’

:-P

i think sometimes people forget dazai is 15 in fifteen

I think my favorite thing about doing ginger red hair instead of cherry red hair is: lying to people about it

If you were once a thirteen year old who spelled magic like "magick" how many mental disorders do you have now

*newspaper bapping intensifies*

What do you MEAN "goodbye" Ace???

This is it...this is what I mean.

It's over.

I love the weapon diversity in hsr because not only do we have traditional weapons like swords, polearms, bows, guns, etc. we also have cool sci-fi weapons like laser tomes (or whatever you'd call Pela's weapon), gun spears????(Bronya why are you so cool) and such

And we also have like. Normal Items that are either modified or just. magic. for some reason. like Welt's cane, Serval's guitar and whatever the fuck Himeko's buzzsaw briefcase thing is

Or, my absolute favorite, Gepard using his sister's guitar case??????? What

I do want to talk about sharing art online from the perspective of a hobby freelancer but before that I'll just toss this tidbit I mentioned on my main

Reblogs are not numbers. Reblogs are meant to share and pass on artwork that someone may like. NO ONE is forced to reblog anything BUT it is a core of engagement in a space like tumblr. Engagement is what brings in interest after all and it's one piece of what makes it important for freelance artists here.

When you look at the numbers and the notes, we need to stop viewing them and comparing them with likes (me included) or total in general. It doesn't help.

Artists do self rebloging to both show or remind folks they've done some work as well as to nudge people to reblog their stuff. Tags are nice and comments in them are a nice way to engage too but passing on the work, especially to help someone to get noticed, is a good way to just work the site as intended.

It will always be about luck because we can't guess who wants to engage with what online. You also can't blame yourselves for this. Don't use the internet mentality of "content" (eugh!) and "flopping" and go about it that way. People find stuff I drew years back and find ways to engage with it now. It's really about luck.

There are things that can help but I'll go about it in another post.

One more thing. Don't be shy about "shilling". Advertise your open commissions, your patreons or ko-fis. I promise it has nothing to do with how big of an artist you are. Remember that you're doing that within your own zone so "bothering" followers is hardly the case, it's your house. Make a tag for it if it helps your mind. I say as someone with social anxiety.

anyone else having to go through fhjy at a snail's pace bc every time there's a teacher-student interaction (even the positive ones!) you want to set something on fire because of how much you hate high school and american academic culture and it throws you back to the Bad Old Days of actually being in high school, but also you really like fantasy high and you really like the characters and their story and the players and the way they're exploring & critiquing the US school system and basically everything about the show but actually watching it makes your brain explode?

leaked emails from last year's hugo awards organizers show they actively tried to single out authors and their submissions from being considered for the awards because of Chinese censorship laws. As in, it wasn't the censors who did it, they just were so scared of running into the law that they essentially did the censor's work for them in anticipation and talked among themselves which candidates shouldn't be nominated. One notable email singled out author Neseem Jamnia for being "queer, nonbinary, trans" and frequently writing about gender and being nonbinary as being potentially problematic for censorship.

worldcon organizers volunteering information to each other about which of the authors they know are queer so they can disqualify them. stay classy hugos.

i don't think early-series hera gets enough credit for how funny she is. "scans do indicate a percentage drop in the tank's capacity that is commensurate with the amount officer eiffel could stuff into a crewmember duffel bag"? she saw him do it. she probably talked to him while he did it. it's the tonal dissonance between highly technical phrasing and a very blunt observation. like when eiffel asks her for her top five 'stick it to the man' songs and she asks him things like 'top five lanthanides?' until he says "you're just yanking my chain, aren't you?" and she responds by quoting anarchy in the uk at him. sure, sometimes there are things she genuinely doesn't get and/or would express differently, but the way she frames it is playing with the false expectations people have of her. she knows exactly what she's doing.
