my perfect fantasy of life is that for my birthday all my friends organize a trivia game that is half questions written for me and me alone and half questions ABOUT me. so I can have the satisfaction of hitting the buzzer within ten words and knowing the extremely useless detail about whatever tv show it is. and then I can have the satisfaction of everyone I love knowing me well enough to answer, like, "what are keaton's top 5 blorbos of all time". and of course in the end the spread is biased towards questions for me so I win.

We came to a young world. We came to a world of raw, elemental wonder. Of chaos and exultant passion. Of energy vaster, and more potent than anything we beheld in the cosmos... It doesn’t seem like it’s random or chaos. It just seemed like potential.

Tim drake doodles.

tell me why i decided to doodle tim again? IT'S BEEN YEARS. (except the few odd sketches.)

another silly goober! Huzzah!

Despite me liking Tim as a character, i don't draw him much nowadays. (probably bc i got so frustrated w the batman canon for while... it was unhealthy, now i'm just going Yolo🤙.)

ANYWAY, i wanted to test out real g-pen again but then i did a doodle w dry ink as well<3 AH I LIKE THESE DOODLES!!

book project 2: electric boogaloo

hey folks, in light of the need for some positivity, we (that is to say, ro, lost, and i) have decided to rally together to make yet another book - this one for the dteam as a group!

the goal is to compile little messages (think of what you might write on a whiteboard - encouragement, a hello, appreciation, whatever else) and send them to the PO box for the whole dteam to enjoy :] there's no real overarching theme this time, since this is meant to be a fairly open expression of support/gratitude/etc.

our hope is that people will direct their messages to the entire dteam, but there will be an opportunity to write individual messages as well. that section might end up more limited, as we want to dedicate the most space toward the group sentiments. we'll do our best to accommodate what we can, however.

we also have other plans for supplementary layout items, but we're still working on the details for that. stay tuned, since there might be an opportunity to provide small doodles to the project!

we're planning on keeping the form open for a week (until august 11th, 11:59pm est) or until we hit a set limit of responses - we just want to keep the amount manageable. we may also have to close the form in the event of griefing, but we'll find workarounds if that happens. we want as many people to be able to contribute as possible, which is also why we've got a word limit this time 😘

the link to the form is here !

remember, please submit any entries by august 11th, 11:59pm est. if we need to close it before then, i'll make a post announcing it. reblogs will stay on for now unless it becomes necessary to turn them off.

NOTE: this is a project for dtblr!! we would prefer if this does Not get shared on twitter. twitter mains are ofc welcome to contribute, but please respect that we'd like to keep it primarily for this side of the fandom :] we appreciate your understanding!

thank you in advance! let's make something nice !!!

Are the Herrschers outfits based on what the girls would want? Like the honkai subconsciously uses their imagination as "inspiration" for their outfits?

I think one of the biggest differences between bangel and spuffy is that angel isn’t a partner to buffy. he’s not even someone she knows that well. he’s not someone she’s ever familiar with, and he’s not someone she can ever fully rely on.

yeah their romance was big and grand and all the things a tragic fairytale romance is. but at the end of the day their relationship is so incredibly surface level. all there is is the idea of love, and not even the real thing.

good night citizens get a netrunner in their stocking this christmas

merry christmas everyone ◝(ᵔᗜᵔ)◜!!

I love Until Dawn (evidently) but omg everytime I play the game or think abt the game I end up feeling so gd sad. Like damn its bleak. Josh Washington genuinely has made me cry more times than I can count.

[heavy mota spoilers]

if the rumors are true (the rumors being facts that people know about curt’s fate because he was a real life human being who lived and uh. died.) and curt’s death is happening this early on in the series, then literally the only thing that will get me to keep watching is if episode three ends with bucky realizing that curt is dead and staring off into space with the same empty longing that he stared at curt with when he rode away in the back of that truck, which is the same stare that he gave him when he first saw him alive after the mission, and will now be the stare that he gives whenever curt’s name is mentioned and he’s reminded that he’s lost the only person in the world that could get him to feel something.

and then, and this is important, i need episode four in its entirety to be a flashback of their time at bootcamp in walla walla. for curt’s death to matter, i need to see whatever earned curt such a tender spot in bucky’s heart. i need to see their shenanigans and get to know their inside jokes and i need to see all of their time spent together (how many other times have they snuck off on their own? when was the first?)

if they want to give curt’s death the weight that it deserves, i need to watch bucky fall in love with him. and then i need to see it brought to the present. show us the kiss they shared after curt threw that punch and knocked feeling back into bucky. show us the lighthearted drunken kisses that bucky left on curt’s cheek after giving those british bastards what they asked for. show us the tiny moment of intimacy that they got to share before this final mission. show us a last kiss that they don’t know is their last kiss, softened by curt joking, always joking, that he’ll be bucky’s guardian angel when this is all over.

and then, and only then, we can return to bucky in the present, learning what it means for it to be all over.

Okay smartass how would you fix Bingqiu if you had your way?

If you actually want to know you could do to be less of a rude little shit about it, anon, but all right.

This is not about 'fixing' anything. Bingqiu is a wildly popular ship and a lot of people enjoy the exact kind of delusional insanity these two have about each other and that's honestly great. Love it for them. Not my cup of tea though.

I think the easiest and fastest way to make them sort their shit out and maybe put them in a position where I might actually be interested in what's going on with them is to take the protagonist halo away. Maybe the System short circuits, maybe it just gets automatically turned off after the extras, don't know don't care.

A lot of Shen Qingqiu's self delusions are fueled by his unshakeable belief that Luo Binghe, being The Protagonist, is Perfectly Fine the way he is. Binghe is the Protagonist, so when there are no character development or obligatory angst events going on he is happy and healthy and a slightly charred good boy and Shen Qingqiu is The Happy Wife who dotes on his hubby and Everything Is Right In The World. Endless honeymoon with their responsibilities only coming to bother them every once in a while. And it makes it way too easy for Binghe to cover up that he's still hurt, still unstable and still insecure by what went down because Shen Qingqiu is willing to take him at face value when he presents his insecurities as just being shameless neediness for his husband. Of course he happily indulges Binghe! But that isn't really helping with the core of the problem now, does it?

Like, Binghe takes steps towards ensuring Shen Qingqiu's mental wellbeing even at the cost of his own as soon as Maigu Ridge is over when he takes him back to the sect. Shen Qingqiu tries too, in his own way (the entire segment in the tombs is all about him putting himself in very real danger for Binghe's sake) but at the same time, this is a guy who completely missed the writing on the wall that Bingge was deeply unhappy in PIDW. As long as he can hold onto his internal picture that The Protagonist Suffered A Lot But He Is Fine Now I don't think he can really offer the right kind of emotional support for Binghe to actually heal from what happened to him and move on to a healthier frame of mind.

If you take the protagonist halo away, then first of all Binghe can, you know, suck a little. Or a lot, actually. The world not making excuses for him and him being a little defanged would be good for him. He gets really nothing he actually wants from being the protagonist - Shen Qingqiu will love him anyway. Mobei-jun will still stick around to back him up and help him out, because he's still Shang Qinghua's favorite fictional son and Qinghua is happy to see Binghe happy, just, you know, somewhere way over there where he can't get jealous tsundere over Cucumber bro and maybe murder him about it. Sha Hualing is still going to be his buddy because he's her best source of human trivia and the writing inspiration for her girlfriend. Not having to be demon emperor and getting more time to spend with his husband would be a relief.

But he would have to be more aware of other people because he's not above them anymore. Maybe even forced to make a few new friends to get by. And his mask will fail and Shen Qingqiu will have to see him for what he is: just Luo Binghe, still hurt and still confused half demon, who loves him very much, but can't make sense of him and is afraid that he will be left behind or pushed away without explanation again and that's kinda Shen Qingqiu's own damn fault.

And Shen Qingqiu can't hold onto his delusions about The Protagonist. He can't willfully ignore that things are not fine with Binghe because he's not the Protagonist anymore and the world only allows that special privilege for the Protagonist. Binghe is just a guy now and he has so many heart demons he needs help with. His trauma from the abyss or Xin Mo can't be brushed off with 'oh that's just part of his blackening he's fine now' anymore. And it might need a little bit of adjusting to internalize that these problems have always been here just below the surface, but Shen Qingqiu genuinely loves Binghe and would want to help him become happier and more stable in any way he can.

Binghe becoming part of the world in a way that's one person among many - building a support network! maybe befriending new demons or actually getting to know and making up with the QJ disciples or finding common ground with LQG and becoming sparring buddies - rather than a protagonist in a sea of NPCs is a lot more interesting to me than whatever he has going on at the end of canon. And Shen Qingqiu can be there with him on that journey, because he already started unlearning the sense of unreality the System conditioned into him, but he still has a long way to go.

those fucking guys from genshin impact I guess (also first post, whoopee, follow me if you like enjoyment I suppose)

No, hear me out…
