WAAAAHHHH TYYY 🥹🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️❤️

Shueisha color teasers dropped! thoughts on the pallettes?

Okay quick rundown of what I think!

I think Jodio and Dragona look the best, I’m glad they kept Jodio’s colours, and Dragona looks more or less what I expected!

Though I’m not in love with the orange outfit for dragona, I think green or purple would have looked way better! Paco is fine, though I think his hair should have been a dirty blonde.

And I’m so sorry Usagi enjoyers, he’s a lost cause, they made him tingle. They feared to let him slay, they debuffed him. It almost looks alright but then they made the hat neon blue,,, should of been at least red to at least compliment just a lil

I think everyone else’s colours are fine! Though kinda just standard, and I do love November rain, I won with him having blue!! (Looks like weather report which is super cool)

Tbh I can get use to these colours, EVEN though I’ll probably still use the colour palettes I’ve been using, not like Shueisha colours are canon, It’s disappointing they just used palettes from certain Araki paintings over trying to make their own decisions on palettes

Jodio is fine, seeing Araki used it multiple times so it feels like that is what Jodio is supposed to look like, but taking from a painting where the whole point is to be one certain colour scheme, where everyone matches (Araki does these types of paintings a lot) feels somewhat misguided and will make Dragona, Paco and Usagi blend together and while Jodio will stand out.

I feel like there should be more variety of colours amongst the group, similar to how Golden Winds cast are all defined by one colour. I felt like it was too soon to give them colours, but again maybe I’ll warm up to them,

Definitely still using my own palettes whenever I feel like drawing them again🩵🩵🩵

Happy lesbian visibility day!!1! (I didn’t even know today was the day til' I saw sm-baby’s post lol)

Coincidentally somehow I just happened to be drawing lesbians today- I dunno what cosmic force compelled me to but here we are

i cannot even comprehend what just happened someone help me i didn’t realize i was crying until the video was over but omg it was a whole mv omg i’m so proud of him i’m in loveee w his voice omg at the very first moment i already had goosebumps over my whole body also him saying “i don’t think im okay” broke my heart in ways i didn’t know it could. ik it’s just a song but him singing it like that made it feel so real. him singing this whole song broke my heart. he better actually be okay cuz if not i will personally fly over to whoever or whatever is preventing him from happiness and take matters into my own hands 😠 k but omg jake is smth else man he’s had sm potential from the v beginning and these days he’s finally rlly shining and it makes me so happy to see omg ok this cover has given me sm to think about yall pls stream it. stream it for jake. he’s worked so hard. ugh this was actually a masterpiece. tell me he’s okay tho 😭 WAIT ALSO JAKE HIGH NOTES i almost forgot to say- that was insane pls when do we ever get jake high notes???? heavenly. hea👏🏻ven👏🏻ly👏🏻 he was insane for this. truly insane. i didn’t even know it was possible to fall even deeper in love w this man but he proved me wrong yet again. so proud of him for this.

I think Nomura giving Ephemera descendants also inadvertently gave me some kind of disease (/pos)

just saw someone i follow reblog a post that called bi lesbians/mspec lesbians bigots… checked the dni of the person who made the post and sure enough they’re an exclus. needless to say the exclus has been blocked and that person i was following has been unfollowed. kill the cop in your heads y’all, it doesn’t fucking matter what terms someone uses for their identity. and bi women were also considered lesbians before terfs kicked them out. so.

If I think about the putt putt trolls too hard I get sad like-

they were separated by a cave in. They must’ve assumed the other half of the Pop Trolls, or at least most of em, died right? Did they hold funerals? A ceremony at the Golf Course once they learned it was safe for those who passed away in the tunnels?

Did Viva know about the other Troll genre’s and races? Was that kept from her too? I’d assume so. If it was then how depressing is it to view you and your village alone as the only Trolls ever, only for Half of them to die during your escape for freedom?

Given Viva’s comment about “It’s so fantastamazing to see other Trolls!!” I’d assume she only thought those in the Putt Putt Greens were left. Everyone else must’ve assumed that too, right?

Do u Think there’s gravestones? Do u think they planted flowers to represent people who passed away that day?

Do u think when they’re moving the Putt Putt Trolls from the golf course to Trolltopia they come across lil flower patches? Two planted by Viva for her father and sister? Four planted by Clay for his brothers?

Did they mourn? Or did they push all that away? Viva’s definitely someone of avoidance but Clay feels a lot, how different were their mourning periods? Did they cling to each other? Go full loner? They’re closer then close in the movie, maybe there’s an argument to be made it’s teetering on co-dependency

I KNOW ITS A KIDS MOVIE BUT THERES SOMETHING INHERENTLY DEPRESSING ABOUT THE PUTT PUTTS WE DONT TALK ABOUT ENOUGH-

One thing that still bugs me about that whole watertok controversy a little while ago was when people were criticizing the semantics of whether or not the drinks could still be called “waters” after adding all the syrups and powders, soooo many people were like “omg words MEAN something. That is NOT water. It’s like, juice ✌️” like wtf no it’s not juice either lmao. There was literally no juice in those things. Like personally I wouldn’t call them water either, maybe a mocktail or something I guess, I don’t really care, but if people making the whole “words mean something” argument and then supplying an alternative word that was arguably MORE WRONG, then I don’t really think they actually cared about the ~word meanings~ as much as they said?? Like sure there were some good constructive critiques about the nature of the trend and all but I think some people were kinda just getting on their high horse for no reason other than to feel superior about some trend they didn’t care about lol

I mean no fanbase is perfect but from my experience the TF fandom is pretty nice overall are there bad people in it oh yeah I’m sure but that applies to just about every fandom.

However that’s not to say I’m excusing bad things within it like misogyny and it’s good when it’s called out which thankfully does seem to be called out in this fandom.

Anyways yeah you’re right it’s not your responsibility to constantly bring up anything negative about something you enjoy.

It's not even about responsibility. It's just not necessary for me to do it all the time. Not every post needs a little disclaimer at the bottom abt how my post doesn't apply to x or y or z. I don't know why I've fallen into this need to do it--actually I do know why. It's because since I've started the habit the anon hate has gone down. It's like I'm shielding my back from every possible bad faith interpretation that could be made, and while effective it has made me just not want to post anything.

There are obviously many times when this effort and extra step need to be done but the amount of which I am doing it is exhausting and needless tbh

for the writer ask

💭🚦💛 💌

💭 What inspires you and your writing?

this is a real marketing major-ass answer (from your local marketing major), but i love sharing knowledge and telling stories. writing’s one of those things that’s a bit of a compulsion for me—i’m always writing something. i took a five-year break from fiction writing before i stumbled ass-first into fanfic last year, but even in those years when i was focusing on my career, i was writing guides and trainings and a ton of other stuff—just not anything fun, lol.

writing is also so cathartic. sometimes i set out to tell a specific story, but at other times, a particular emotion gets me in a vice grip and i have to put it to words before it’ll go away. my stories tend to wind up as emotional dumping grounds as a result.

i don’t write things pulled directly from my own life, but there are bits and pieces of myself and things that have happened to me scattered throughout stuff i’ve written, and usually when i’m about 75% of the way through a piece, i’ll realize it’s absolutely related to something i’m currently going through. funny how art works that way, even when you don’t intend for it to.

and occasionally i just have a fire lit under my ass about an issue and i get so hot about it that i gotta compile my thoughts. looking at you, silver snow

🚦 What sort of endings do you prefer to write: ambiguous, bad, happily ever after, etc.?

look, i would love nothing more for them girls (pick whichever girls you please) to have a happy ending where they kiss and are stupid in love for the rest of forever. i love reading those kinds of stories. but in my heart of hearts, i love an ambiguous ending. i like when there are still questions after the story ends. i like thinking about where things could go or how the characters will go on after the events of the story. like, shared space could be read as having a happy ending, but i don’t really think it is. and with the victors; the vestiges, well. you’ll see :0)

come to think of it, i’m not sure i’ve ever written a happily-ever-after, but i don’t think i’ve ever written a 100% bad ending, either. i read too many bury-your-gays stories and watched too many sad european queer coming-of-age films in my youth to ever be happy putting that kinda thing out into the world. i want to write about love with all its ugliness, but not despair or hopelessness. i think what most appeals to me about an ambiguous ending is that lingering feeling of hope. it’s not the same as the kind you get from a happily-ever-after, and something about it speaks to me.

💛 What is the most impactful lesson you’ve learned about writing?

honestly? how to take criticism. i took a creative writing class in high school where we had to read our work out loud and then receive feedback on it from the other writers in the class, and that did a lot for me. going into that class, i’d already been writing for forever and had won some little local writing contests and such, so i was a wee bit of a pretentious douche. but i’d never gotten real critique before beyond, essentially, spelling and grammar checks. it humbled me lol. it made me grow so much as a writer, and i could see where i needed to improve or where my head was wedged way too far up my own ass for others to follow. it also helped me recognize strengths i didn’t know i had, and that was huge. it’s easy to get into a self-doubt spiral when making creative work, and good, constructive criticism can do so much to help avoid that.

to this day i love critique. i like knowing what worked or didn’t work so that i can continue to improve as a writer and do better next time. did my themes land? did something really work, but another part fall flat? i’d love to know!! i try to treat everything i write as practice for the next thing, and frankly that’s helped take some of the pressure off so i don’t go into total Perfectionist Mode.

i know critique is kind of a sensitive topic in fan spaces, but i think that’s because a lot of people have gotten unsolicited criticism that is purely critical and isn’t constructive. but getting good, constructive criticism will do so much to help a person grow as a writer. it’s scary, and sometimes it hurts! writing is very personal for most people, and it stings when things aren’t received the way you think they will be. but i know i’ve grown more from having my failures pointed out (and, very importantly, having the good things about those efforts acknowledged) than anything else.

💌 Is there a favorite trope you like to write?

actually Just answered this in another ask!

Haha uhm... 👉👈 would anyone care to hear some of my oc voiceclaim songs..

weird expanse fandom pet peeve that I admit might be a thing only a few people do: calling Bobbie “gunny”

like, sure, people who just got here and might think it’s more of a thing than it is or don’t know it’s not even a fun personalized nickname, just standard military abbreviation for “gunnery sergeant”, you’re fine, you’ll grow out of it

but, for long-term, seasoned fans…no, you’re crossing some kinda line, buddy

oh goddamn i’m really close to 1k followers here. that’s a first. ummmm it’s been like half a year since i’ve been really into persona ngl so i haven’t drawn much of it at all lately sorry. idk maybe i’ll take a few character requests when i hit 1k? is that something anyone would want

at all times barely keeping myself from cementing my reputation in ninja fandom as the love triangle + skybound characterization apologist

when i left yoonie’s server after the ordeal i had with dollie, a member reached out to me and expressed to me how dollie makes them feel uncomfortable, how they dislike them, and doesn’t think its fair what they get away with and then preach as though they’re so holy. this person was so polite and joyful in the chat, i was surprised. they told me they never spoke against dollie out of fear because of rots aggression and being outnumbered by the majority who may agree, and generally didn’t speak whenever dollie was around. all this to the point they left the server soon after, overwhelmed by it all. i say all this to wonder who else may feel the same way in yoonie’s server but aren’t saying anything for the same or similar reason. it’s quite sad to me that one person can cause so much grief and nothing be really done about it. telling people to reach out is easy to say and may sound like a solution but anxiety is real and others may feel too anxious to do so.

❤️❤️ “telling people to reach out is easy and may sound like a solution” but it’s not putting in a two strikes warning system after a single person has made people uncomfortable enough to leave the server isn’t the solution. They don’t leave for simple disagreements, you having disagreements with corpse is by no mean at all the same as a regular user.
