everyone loves talking about the batshit worldbuilding in WoT but I feel like everybody tends to overlook the Vaguely Evil Elves From Another Dimension that have their own officially licensed chutes and ladders-esque board game that you Cannot Ever Win

#unless you're a 9 year old boy who's surrogate father just broke their entire reality #society when olver won snakes and foxes without cheating #the day I get my hands on a real life snakes and foxes game is the day that I can die happy #but idk I feel like everybody tends to overlook the aelfinn and the eelfinn in favor of like. the ogier and radioactive two rivers #and the many. many. m a n y. other insane worldbuilding Choices robert jordan made #which are all valid I mean WoT is fucking insane #but I think we should have more aelfinn and eelfinn appreciation on this webbed site #like they're so interesting!!!!!! there's so much to unpack!!!!!!!!!#vin speaks #wheel of time #wot book spoilers #wheel of time spoilers #wot spoilers #mat cauthon #the shadow rising #towers of midnight

i Do Not Trust people who make Mary the bad guy in their stories when the show went out of its way to specifically show us how she was suffering just as much as stede was in their marriage and that shes, yknow, a good person

#mary is specifically framed in a sympathetic light in all of her appearances. the show switches to following her narrative so we can see #how much better her new life is for her too!!! like yes she tries to kill stede but we are shown in the narrative WHY she makes that choice #and that she struggles with it and we see stede understanding this too! he supports her decisions and her new life and is happy for her!!!#at no point are we shown anything that makes mary a bad person or bad mother- honestly i generally like mary far more than stede anyway #but even if you dont you should be able to acknowledge... that if u make her the bad guy??? w. what did you take away from the show??#idk it has the vibes of. the girl character all the fans hate because she gets in the way of their precious little gay ship #or whatever. you know what i mean #ofmd #our flag means death #mary bonnet #mary allamby bonnet #everyone whos a mary hater is also an izzy hater bc theyre coded the same character type. betrayed wives my beloved #(this is a joke.)#uh. this might be one to add in the tags on again sorry gang i have too many thoughts

Dating sim where Noah’s the playable main character and the goal is to get with one of a wide variety of campers on the island (to his protest)

#I started thinking about how life and dating sims tickle my fancy #and as you do I tried forcing total drama into the mold #this is the solution I came to. most shippable man who ever lived #I don’t know why I’m entertaining this stupid little idea but. there should be an even ratio of boys and girls #for the boys Cody Owen and Alejandro are obvious choices #for the girls I propose Izzy Heather and Gwen #if eight is a better number throw Duncan and Courtney into the mix #there’d be a good route where the romance works a bad route where he tries and fails and a neutral route where he either makes a good-#friend or finds happiness with solitude #that’s it. aaaand post #total drama #Starry speaks #no emma cause this is on the island she doesn’t exist yet

but black is the color of my true love's hair

#critical role #cr #cr3 #laudna #cr laudna #imogen temult #imodna #new morning routines :)#caption is from the song black is the color. linked a cover i love in the caption #it's also in my imodna playlist :)#i have a lot of emotions abt them but do many people have already worded it better #laudna is an extremely personal character to me though. relate deeply to her in many ways.#so i'm always rotating her in my mind going 'she's just like me!' and then getting deeply sad cause i do not have an imogen in my life.#anyways! them. they make me happy i really hope they get together but I'm not gonna expect it cause critical role has surprised me #with its romance choices in particular

~Brief descriptions of the animation process below the cut~

First pass with testing out the placements and eye darts first. I edited his eye shape a lot after this coz it was too big here xD His tattoo isn't properly masked as well yet

Second pass with the new eye shape >u< Testing out his smaller eye in this and making sure the pupil doesn't clip through his smaller eyelids

Third pass, eye squinttsss. I don't use plugins for my animation though, I just brute force it via a combo of position, rotation and puppet pins xD

Fourth pass with more detailed and subtle eye movements. If you squint and stare hard enough you can actually see subtle deformation for his eyelashes to have a smoother animation with the delays and drag

Fifth pass, I gave him a subtle up and down movement with his body as if from breathing but you can't really see it unless you've been staring at it as long as I have xD But it does help subconsciously to not make him feel as static. Bigger head movement for this too where he shifts position. Started parts of his hair animation too. There's puppet pins as well in his hair to do the wave motion for it alongside rotations.

Sixth pass, wheeee he got all his fluffeh hair moving x3 I animated each strand to be on the same timing first then slowly offset the keyframes one by one so that they all move on different timings for it.

Seventh pass, last WIP pass I saved before the completed one. He got yet another expression shift for this. I'm pretty happy with how he's quite flexible in his expressions from just manipulating the puppet pins and my many many layers to built him xD Annddd that's all, thanks for reading >u< / <3

Bonus note, animating in After Effects will eat your PC like nobody's business x'D 46GB just for the damn cache omggggggg It was worth animating Sukuna though~

#Ryomen #Sukuna #両面宿儺 #JujutsuKaisen #呪術廻戦 #jjk #digital #animated #gif #fanart #Chirpy-chi #I am so happy with the end results from this #I took a long hiatus from doing animations like these due to lack of time and energy #but man after seeing everything come together #it's a certain kind of satisfaction ;v;#ofc while I was animating I started questioning my life choices #as anyone who has tried animation probably does

a bug in the system really was my favorite guild wars 2 update forever honestly........................im biased towards asura content and i dont even care. it was SIMPLY Fun. i mean tbh/tbf like all of pof and ls4 was super super good but i miss any kind of meaty, meaningful asura content. i start thinking too hard about those little invader zim freaks and it makes me want to explode

#my stuff #the scraps of asura content in soto rly dont count bc theyre not being bitchy and arguing at each other #i dont WANT to go to zinns fake happy magic rainbow crystal land or be like an incidental witness to zojjas weird amnesia life choices #i WANT to go to a sort of art gallery of put upon office workers and guys who say stuff like beta capacitulator x-2

at the asian american studies sponsored movie screening i run out of my seat to press a button for the presenter and you look away, not in shame, but in anger

go make your own movie.

One where you’re the star

and everything’s my fault

the way you want it to be. I know, it’s easy

to let someone else hold this grief

and sit in the bathtub,

all dressed up to go to the party.

Maybe in this movie it’s your party

and I the party crasher,

holding cymbals and a baseball bat, et cetera.

But we don’t stop getting older when we’re angry

and you’re only twenty,

can’t listen to lullabies at night,

can’t sleep without a blanket

over your head like you’re scared

of your own shadow. God, go

write your own movie.

You could do it,

you’re still

pretty. Angry? Me too.

The bathtub’s overflowing,

the bathroom’s flooding

with whatever you couldn’t say

to the poet with their palms glued shut

in a cheap simulacrum of prayer.

Didn’t you say you were tired? Angry? Me too.

Upset? Unhappy? Me too. Hungry? Lonely? Me too. Me too.

Standing barefoot in the grass

I remembered the month of bad weather.

How I parted the fog with broken hands each night,

looking for your voice.

Oh, I will not forgive you.

Not like this.

With your fingers splayed

against the brute February sky,

lips cracked open like windows,

waiting, like you always are, for me to say the first word.

#my writing #my words #there are many reasons i like tumblr. for example the number of people who keep getting older is very impressive #but also it is nice because unlike my goddamn poetry account (self inflicted damage) half my friends irl do not follow me here #so i can put this poem down. it’s not public grief here it’s anonymous grief! woo #anyway i have just survived possibly the most brutal four weeks of my life and this is including getting dumped a week #before the dance concert in which my ex and i were in more than half the items together. this is including that #but i am OUT #and this poem was written while i was still in but i am O U T #lord being hurt and hurt and being mature and brave and smart makes your HR voice get really good #not by choice #for survival purposes #i am wondering if i should get this laptop. as my water bottle exploded and destroyed my old laptop #i think i will do it #yes. i think so #it is time to start taking care of myself. and so on #so here’s this poem. i wanted to share it because it’s raw and unedited and it has some lines that i think are neat #if it makes you feel some stuff that would make me very happy

doing figure drawing studies because i know thats what i should be doing right now but also ive been in a very insane deranged state for the past 2 months that leaves me like this whenever i look at a man for too long

#talkys #im gonna say some more stuff here which is i dont think its ever going to happen for me which is like #it should be fine right...i dont think im even meant to be in a relationship it sounds exhausting and like another #constant neverending performance...#but its like that one post...''im happy by myself but also where's the love of my life''#ykwim...i wish i could at least make an informed decision #but that would also be tragic as it'd require me to go thru more heartbreak so i could know for certain #is it better to do it or not do it at all...#anyway ive also been having a hard time putting this into words #but. i like my alone time! i can live with myself. + nothing will ever beat the peace and romance in my brain #but. it also feels so weird to think this way. in the sense of like. yeah. you're only thinking this way because you Have To.#because that's your reality. other ppl don't have to think this way because they are capable of finding love.#other people dont have to reaffirm themself of this in the wake of not ever being desired and valued....#does that make sense...? it feels really weird.#like of course u have to like being alone and spending time with yourself. you have no other choice lol. you lost.#and also... idk. idealized romances in my brain better than anything maybe i would like to be held just once by another living human being.#🌺

the way i see it the supernatural finale could be interpreted as disrespectful and a slap in the face to the characters who fought so hard to create their own story, write their own destiny, define all odds and live their lives outside of gods will in this case but personally to me the whole "this was always gonna end like this", "love was there and it didn't chnage anything. but it still matters that the love was there", and the fact that their story and legacy will live on and the fact that sam and dean died the way they were introduced to us in the very first episode and the way both characters always predicted,, is kind of,, its kind of beautiful,..

#don't get me wrong i kind of hate the finale #i wouldve loved an ambiguous very much open ending i feel like that wouldve been the besg choice tbh #but its okay #let me find beauty and symbolism in the disappointment #dean u shouldve lived such a long life u shouldve had many days of comfort and happiness #no like he actually fr had none of those and ACTUALLY #i will always love you dean winchester my favorite character in the world #dean winchester #supernatural #destiel #sam winchester #sam i love u so much sometimes i feel like i understand u on such a deep deep level its amazing #castiel my beloved u deserved so much better #i fully blame the writers for everything #and john winchester #fuck john winchester

no this is fine actually this is so fine. you're so tired. you're so tired. you're given images of a beautiful world, visions of a better future, of things peaceful and idyllic and everything you could have, if you're just willing to- stop. step away. be normal again. if. if. if. (the devil is in the details. the devil is in the details of the moon and- whatever. the devil is in the if). you're tired and you've been fighting with what feels like yourself and the world for so long. theres a beautiful vision, theres beautiful promises, theres a promise of peace, of a sure answer. it sounds so appealing. you're so tired.

(your friends are tired too, you know. he looks at you and his arm is tattoed red and heavy, with grief and with the way he fights so hard to protect you all. He has every reason to regret, everything to hate. He has something on his skin that has such different meanings, now.

He says: no, it didnt taint it, not really. its still them. its still him, and will.

its okay that its different than what he thought. everything about his life is different.

it can mean whatever, the red and the white and the moons. people have been making meaning and crying and weeping under them for ages.

its not tainted. its still his.

she looks at you and says. shes worried about you. that she understands the appeal. she understands considering. but theres more unknown unknowns.

she tells you. you have the choice. thats your superpower, more than the other ones you have. you can make whatever choice you make, and ill support you, you understand? you can have peace without making this trade. you can have peace on your own terms, a quiet life. you can have it. you have that choice. you have it. its yours.)

you are so tired. if you could just be normal- if thats what you want. if it could give you what you want. if.

"Our weirdness makes us right."

"the better halves make a better whole. you have to love all of it."

Lightning, water, and fire! Like forever before the plot starts. By the time the plot starts, the lightning and fire deities have been subjected to punishment by the two gods that picked them.

Oh (the fire deity) is first to be punished. They basically decide that since they're going to live for a long time, gotta set some long time goals! And they opt to be the wrath of the gods since most of the other deities are too 'soft' in their opinion. So Oh just. Smites humans. This isn't really a /good/ thing and in their defense mentally, they do it to help Ymber since he's the softest of them all. So their punishment by the gods is to be split in two, effectively halving the power of one into two. (Now they are in a male and a female body and use both male and female pronouns apart since they together make they but apart it feels weird to be they. But prior to the split they use they/them. Also the split bodies go by the names Ohiwe and Ohime.)

Fulj is the second to be punished. She falls in love with a mortal woman and that is a crime according to the gods. Mortals and immortals are not to be together and it will only bring suffering to both sides. So her punishment is her memories of the woman are stripped and her body basically broken to the point she can't remain physical all the time.

Ymber, unfortunately, is the one who blames himself for the discoveries and punishments. If he had only tried to restrain Oh more then maybe they would have chilled out and stopped before being punished. If he had only tried to persuade Fulj to not continue seeing the mortal woman so often perhaps she wouldn't have been punished. So he's just increasing the guilt on his shoulders every day that he remains unpunished since the elder gods have both laid down to rest. They can't enforce their laws anymore and none of the deities are keen on harming one another at this point. They just want to continue existing in peace.

#the daily life of a deity sucks #and then ymber falls in love with a human and is like welp this sucks and i understand fulj now #i also would have accepted the punishment for this #and fulj doesnt even remember the woman she was punished for and doesnt remember how she was before #so she is like hey ymber please just go and kiss the weird human i dont even like him but youre being mean by not kissing him #and ymber is just having the worst time of his life being encouraged by someone who used to be so happy #who he also encouraged to be happy once upon a time #also ohiwe and ohime pop up in the water city to bully ymber sometimes but its still in the way of #dude we like you please grow a spine its been a thousand years please grow a backbone and tell us to piss off #and he never tells them to piss off #also fulj has a long braid here but you cant really see it #and she loves to braid ymbers hair and he gets to braid hers when shes giggling and chatting about love #and a short while after the punishment fulj chops the braid off and ymber is like welp my friend is officially gone #and then he cuts his own hair and leaves to go develop his city alone in seclusion #and he sometimes just cuts it really short because hes still sad and soggy and thinks of fulj braiding his hair #and then she shows up one day when hes debating how long its getting and she smiles #and tells him he looks good with longer hair #so he kinda keeps it a messy short then it gets to be medium and he decides he can survive with medium but he couldnt do long again #but once again fulj is the reason for his life choices (and guilt)#also before anyone asks yes all the deities have a collar #its very important actually that they are collared its lore information thanks #and for what it matters - after oh is split both forms are just as tall #theres just two of them at half power but they are both tall
