I like the slants of light. I'm a collector.

Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, 1974

it's so heartbreaking how in the first season shiv is pretending so hard that she's uninterested in being a part of the company and that she has her OWN Good Liberal Agenda and her OWN desires and beliefs and her OWN ways to get power and success and no tom don't worry I don't even want it!!! ofc she wants it more than anything in the world but she knows that to express desire is to be vulnerable to humiliation. but then that OLD CUNT coaxes her out of her shell and makes her believe she has a chance only to humiliate her over and over again and make her entire life about him because he can't stand for any of his kids not to be obsessed with him. "I've managed to get myself into this situation where what does my dad think is my entire fucking universe." sarah snook emmy logan roy kys 1000 times

when kendall never really got out of the lake and has just been sinking his way through the rest of the story. and shiv never sees past the slant of light to see the knife coming until its sticking out of her and she can brandish it back, clutching bloody and desperate. and roman doesn't fold and crawl back to logan cause he never truly left the cage. and connor always returns to the doghouse in the desert, dried up out of sight

“I’ve been waiting for so long,” One whispers, and it feels like an icy claw again, running down his spine, jagged and endless and splitting him in two. “---watching you. For so long.”

“Why can’t you see it? You are the key. One of a kind. It’s always been inside of you. Buried and hidden. And they can feel it, deep down in their souls; mere animals feeling the predator they can’t see in the dark. They’ve always known what would happen if the spark ignited inside of you.”

The earth sighs one last, hushed breath and then the light breaks through his body completely, shattering into a wall of light and swallowing everything, like the death of a star.

Then there’s nothing. Nothing at all.

"You,” Vecna whispers, the smile plain on his lips. “Are the Destroyer of all things.”

-You Are My Sunshine

I loved the pose so much from my other piece I had to make it it’s own thing. 🖤 Will made of pure light is my cup of tea. 🌟

bitches be like 'these gays are trying to kill me' and it's two fictional characters who wont kiss when i want them too or wont stop kissing when i need them too

When I draw locations from deltarune I do my best to represent them as they are presented to us in game, as if the images we see are literal. Then I slowly lose my mind trying to figure out how their sprites work until I eventually remember that everything is representational and the images we see don't represent the reality of the location. (Case in point, the exterior of the school can't line up with the interior. Probably because the buildings aren't to scale, but also just... the layouts are different. Where's that second story, huh? How do those windows in the back hallway work?)

So it doesn't really matter what my backgrounds look like. But THEN, I remember that I'm relying on people to be able to identify locations in the comic so they have to at least sort of look like their in-game counterpart, which loops me back around to trying to make things look right... etc.

I’ve been reading this fic for a while now and it’s so good. The author is a really good writer and they touch on some really hard topics but I think they do it really well. But anyway please check it out this has literally everything. Jealous Mike, Dark Will, Angst, Fluff, Will with Powers and more but just do it. It’s so addicting. Anyway, I felt the need to share it because I don’t think it gets enough attention.

“A certain Slant of Light” by JustMyName on ao3

I’m pretty sure the authors tumblr is, lovely person 10/10 would recommend @starsarefire824

Chapters: It’s unfinished 31/42 but trust me it’s good

Words: 97,897

The description given is: Will just wants to get through his last year of high school without incident, to feel normal for once in his life, and try to survive the building tension between him and Mike that grows with every word left unsaid. On the first day of school, Will meets someone new who may finally offer him the acceptance he craves, but he’s unsure what to do when it causes his relationship with Mike to hit a breaking point, forcing them both to confront their true feelings. And to make matters worse, Vecna is always there, whispering in his ear, and letting him know his fated role in the inevitable fall of Hawkins. Slow Burn. Will-centric. Mike-centric later chapters.

one of these days i am going to snap and make a 3D model, either physical or digital, of glyn's stupid head so i can draw him more easily from other angles

"you have that already it's called the game. the character in the game. rotate the camera around him in th-" NICE TRY but i disagree with his hair as it actually exists in there. i'm taking matters into my own hands. also i am too lazy to boot up every time i want to take a new reference

Still, what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled -- to cast aside the weight of facts and maybe even to float a little above this difficult world.

these moments having very similar blocking and shots of each of them is just sooo choice. gutpunch bookends. "this is real?" to "is it still me?"....the same slant of light behind logan....

she’s delivering a letter

ngl the hug is now the 2nd thing i'm looking forward the most because i need to know how stewy will behave at the wake...

me ME. ME. I need to see him try to act mature but be lowkey kinda giddy.

I know FOR A FACT. Stewy was in his brownstone townhouse hate-watching ATN while talking to Sandi on the phone, drinking his merlot alone like a loser. And then the breaking news came on the tv and he was so in shock, had an out of body experience, and dropped his glass. Bet wine splattered all over him (blood metaphor cuz I bet he wanted to always kill Logan lol) as the glass shatters. Sandi is like !! U good?? And Stewy fighting back a smile and his eyes r all watery and he’s like “yeah I’m great. Haha.” Cuz the man who ruined his relationship w the man he loved and Stewy had to spent his entire life being demeaned by just to stay close to Ken, is dead. YIPPEEE!
