most of the villains in one piece give wayyy to much credit to the straw hat's

im watching Dressrosa rn and Doflamingo is trying to interrogate Law about how the straw hat crew and the dwarves started working together

he says something along the lines of "that's not something you could've just formed on a whim one day"

and that's exactly what happened

the straw hat pirates are just down to over throw an established governance at any point, that's just a tuesday afternoon for these lunatics

my notifs recently got me thinking about the very random concept of "what if there is a second, secret CHB. directly below normal CHB." and i ended up brainstorming it in the discord.

context for how this originated: one was just a random notif on my post talking about the tunnels under the Hephaestus cabin, and the other was some tags from @drksanctuary on my fake readriordan article mentioning the idea of a chthonic demigod camp.

so. my brilliant (read: "smashing my 2 brain cells together") idea: the elaborate and seemingly infinite tunnels under cabin 9 are remnants of an abandoned underground CHB that exists directly underneath camp. It's basically just normal CHB except in a big cave system, probably connected to the labyrinth somewhere and has the separate tunnels, and instead of the Olympian cabins it has chthonic cabins. there's probably also some infernal nymphs and etc down there too. since all chthonic demigods can learn to shadow-travel they probably used that to get down there, and a lot of chthonic demigods probably have geokinesis just by nature, ergo the tunnels (for when they don't want to shadow-travel, or can't).

in brainstorming with the discord we decided it could be cool if some of the cabins lined up with the above-ground cabins, either for thematic purposes or associations or whatever. Like there's maybe a Hermes and maybe Poseidon cabin in the chthonic CHB too that just link to the above-ground ones, but also like Persephone cabin lines up to Demeter cabin because of course it does. and maybe Hecate cabin lines up to Cabin 8 cause Artemis is sometimes 1/3rd of Hecate. Maybe Angelos cabin is beneath Cabin 1, and Zagreus cabin is beneath Cabin 12. Things like that.

The other ones i thought of were either Hypnos or Thanatos cabin lines up with Apollo, because twins, and the other is just right beside it (because twins). And Charon's cabin is beneath Cabin 9, ergo why the tunnel system connects to it (because Charon. Ferryman. Surface access. It makes sense in my brain).

#pjo #riordanverse #headcanon #headcanons #au #< go figure which you wanna classify it as #this is entirely silly musing but it actually kind of works out nicely cause there's far fewer chthonic deities #than there are technical-olympians #so honestly you could get away with having the secondary chb only having a few extra cabins compared to the 12 usual cabins #it definitely wouldnt be any more than the 20 cabins it has by TOA #also for silly thematic reasons i do think itd be funny if despite everything cabin 13 is still inexplicably cabin 13 in underground chb #like. it shouldn't be. that doesnt make sense. but it is. what's the numbering system for the other cabins? who knows #negative numbers would be interesting. cause theyre underground #i do already have the hc of there being a secret extra cabin aboveground in chb nicknamed ''Cabin 0/Zero''#that's a little ways into the woods and kinda run-down cause it goes unused and basically why it exists is because #the ''12 olympians'' is actually inconsistent throughout ancient greece so there's a non-zero chance they could have a demigod show up #whose parent *is* technically one of the 12 olympians but they dont have a cabin for them - like Enodia. ergo: spare cabin #anyways all this musing is intentionally very silly #i just think itd be funny for chb to find out there is a second. more goth chb that is otherwise identical #literally directly below them. for no reason.#''why'd they made a second chb directly below the first one?'' ''idk underworld/chthonic reference i guess''

tori: (fishing for free ANBU lore)

shisui: as an ANBU captain, my experience is--

tori: shut the fuck up, shisui

#tori shouldn't technically know shisui is ANBU but he's given up several fronts of secrecy with itachi's......... friends #why does tori want to know about anbu? maybe it's just curiosity #maybe it's left over from being a manga fan #maybe it's because ANBU romance RPF is gaining in popularity #tori: is it actually hard to make captain? i just assumed you became one if you were there long enough #kakashi: no it's VERY difficult. why.... why would you think that #tori: idk i feel like everyone i know in ANBU is a captain? even shisui #reborn au

If you truly want to do what's best for mentally ill people, you have to learn that you often won't be able to separate the "salvageable" parts of ourselves with our illnesses, and you can't pretend like we are sane people underneath the façade of insanity, like we can flip a switch and magically erase the differences that make us "disordered"

#mental health #mental health advocacy #i'm not sure how best to explain it but i see this attitude a lot that anything even mildly 'unsightly' must be punished or ignored...#...or fear mongered...#...or this idea that we *are* just secretly... not disordered and that we can choose every single aspect of our disorders and how...#...that will impact us and our world #it's really hard to explain if you haven't experienced it yourself. it's so hard to know that who you Fundamentally Are is seen as unhuman #that you cannot be disordered and seen as an equal in so many scenarios is precisely what i mean by 'if you want to do right [by us]'#we shouldn't HAVE to present as non-disordered or non-ill just to be treated like a person #i shouldn't have to be forced to pretend like my illnesses are an optional part of who i am that OTHERS should ignore so they can 'love me'#my illnesses are intrinsically tied to Who I Am. i will never have the opportunity to know what Being Sane is like and i shouldn't...#...have to pretend like that isn't the case #it's just fucked up to me to know that people would rather that we just... ignore often fundamental parts of who we are for *their* comfort #maybe that's how i'd word it? i find this a very complex topic but at the core...#...the idea is that we shouldn't have to fucking live a lie for the sake of the 'normal' folk #(obviously 'normal' isn't accurate on a technical level but it conveys how i see the conflict)

dracula dictionary june 17th

"as I was sitting on the edge of my bed cudgelling my brains" cudgel one's brains: To try very hard to comprehend, solve, think of, or remember something

"I heard without a cracking of whips" without: here: outside

"and saw drive into the yard two great leiter-wagons" leiter-wagon: from german Leiterwagen (ladder wagon): a wooden wagon with side walls that resemble ladders

"but just then the "hetman" of the Sz[**]ny came out" hetman: ukranian version of ataman, related to german Hauptmann (leader): the elected chief of a Cossack village or military force sz**ny: a slur for romani people

#if you want to know what the actual slur is that you shouldn't use you're gonna have to look in your email i guess #i have been told that i must never ever write it out even for educational purposes #and if you want to filter that word out... sorry but the person in the replies says that you should get fucked #dracula daily #dracula dictionary #nobody technically asked for this #but i did see some people in the tag wondering what some of these words mean #and there was some confusion about words and phrases in previous entries too #so i might make dracula dictionary a recurring series

we as a society (sicko-adjacent SPN tumblr) really do not talk enough about that shot at almost the exact midpoint of 1x22 Devil's Trap, that starts out looking up at an unknown man entering a bedroom and follows him in to reveal, crotch-first, a drugged and sweaty John Winchester tied spread-eagle to a bed

#i do have Thoughts about it. like That Sure Is A Choice and it's a technically-nontrivial shot that's not doing anything by accident #but also i've been unable to find a single gifset of it and... c'mon. DILF Thirst Tumblr you know what you want to do to that old man #supernatural #john winchester #devil's trap #ugh i have enough posts in my SPN tag by now that i really should start tagging by character and episode too shouldn't i #spn s1

I think the popping sound crocs and gators make when their jaws snap shut because of the sheer force of their bites is an underrated element for monster designs

Thankfully, they are one of the big inspos for Lupines which means Nana 100% makes the sound when she snaps at folks

#my art #nana #beanstalked #I know the anatomy of a gator and a croc mouth is very different from a human one #this sound technically shouldn't be possible with the differences in our mouths but look #I'm here for a fun time not an accurate one

oc inspired paintings :D

lyrics from "Message In A Bottle" by The Police

lyrics from "Tonight, Tonight" by The Smashing Pumpkins

see more about these pieces under cut :]

you don't have to, i was drinking melisa and as such was a bit sleepy while writing it. might not be very detailed or sensible lol

so, these are actually my ocs inspired paintings! first one is for haru and second one is for primrose. they are 'mirror characters' as i like to call them.

they were created alongside (more or less, the concept for them was anyway) and share themes and arcs in a way :)

now a little bit about the landscapes i picked and the songs.

"Message In A Bottle" is one of the songs from haru's playlist. There are a couple of reasons for why i chose it. First it's about loneliness which is a central aspect of haru's arc. they are a character who hates being alone and tries their hardest to make sure that doesn't happen. However in their pursuit of social renown and validation of a collective, they abandon the only people who loved them in the first place.

Loneliness is one of the things that prompted them to change in a way that would earn them approval of strangers and aquaintances. But their transformation ultimately didn't lead to them feeling better, instead it made them even more lonely - not able to connect with their newer friends and not able to open up to the old ones anymore.

The lyrics i chose have sort of a double meaning. It's how haru was feeling before their change begun. but it is also the way they are continue to feel, no matter how badly they deny it. the lyrics are also a contrast to their actual situation - they are surrounded by people who don't understand them - wether because they don't know them or don't know them anymore.

Second is the imagery. Haru was created for Our Life Beginnings and Always. While they are a spring themed character, i view them as the period of ending of spring and beginning of summer, so they embody both seasons to a degree. A castaway island in the song is something that i definitely associate with summer. And a summer, beach, california child is what haru tries to emulate, even if it's not truly what they are.

Third, it's a little inside joke with myself i have. i'm developing a pirate au with olba characters and ya know. bottle messages.... pirates......

Almost forgot but the last thing is that haru listens to a lot of 80s & 90s music, and this song came out in 1979 so. they definitely have heard it before. not their vibe but they thought it was okay.

anyhow, that song is fucking good, go give it a listen <3

and now for the second painting.

"Tonight, Tonight" is a song from Primrose's playlist. I think this song describes the uncertain nature of the future, but regardless of that, at this moment, tonight is tonight. There are things to come but not now. later. tomorrow. It ties into Primrose's arc.

At their core, Haru and Prim's stories are about change. Haru who rushes into things, changes themselves almost mechanically - with no regard for themselves or others, just to achieve their short-term goal. Primrose is going to be the opposite. A character who clings to the way things were, who never wants to plan for the future, afraid of what might change.

She is content to pretend that everything is just fine and things will go back to the way they were, losing herself in the comforts of her stories, books and the internet. Primrose is my Our Life Now and Forever character who is also spring themed except it's the winter-spring period. The change of the season is more visible and that makes her even less likely to accept it. The spring connection and imagery is more important here because spring is in a way a season opposite of fall. So part of the reason Primrose is afraid of change is her awareness of the fact that she doesn't really fit in Golden Grove.

Her journey will be about accepting that change in inevitable. And Haru's journey is about letting things be the way they are.

Her aversion to change is especially highlighted in her teenage years - everyone around her seems to be changing yet she is staying the same, not knowing if it's a bad thing or not, but not willing to find out either. I connect this song with her, because i feel like this is her expressing that she is not clueless about change but won't easily accept it either.

The lyrics are a bit of a foreshadowing to Prim's state as a young adult. People around her are figuring out their post high school plans, but she doesn't want to leave her hometown. "You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth." is the way she feels about leaving for university/college right away. It's also a bit more subtle in a way how growing up makes you leave some pieces of yourself behind, wether you want it or not.

I've been listening to other songs by The Smashing Pumpkins and what i like about them is that they aren't very direct with their meaning. It's a little bit how i want this character to be too. Maybe. Primrose isn't nearly as developed as Haru at the moment.

Some smaller things about the second painting. This song reads to me as Qiu/Primrose song specifically, step 2 one probably. I chose a forest with those type of trees because Rosie is Canadian and they have boreal forests there. Also i liked this imagery for her.

this song is good too, although i like "1979" from the same album more. still, give it a listen :3

i wanted to post some oc stuff, cause i get distracted by my other characters easily and start working on them, but i still wanna yell into the void about Haru and Rosie :]

toodles~

#sunbloom draws #mei's kids #olba mc #olnf mc #olba oc #olnf oc #original characters #landscape painting #digital art #digital artwork #digital painting #i made them a little bit ago but i still like them enough to post them #and ya know they are not the best in the technical sense and some of the oc stuff have changed in the meantime......#but i had fun #and it doesn't mean i shouldn't post them #it was what i felt when i was making them #and if i learned something new in the meantime that's great <3

Just finished penacony's quest so spoilers ahead

At least I learned that how I process grief is both laughing hysterically and crying at the same time, I cried when aventurine was going on the stage and when FREAKING GALLAGHER I KNEW IT I KNEW IT KNEW IT THAT'S WHY HE DIDN'T COME HOME IN 60PULLS

Idk if I should laugh in yay! Great Voice acting

Or cry in SUNDAY MY BELOVED

Anyway spoilers for 2.2+ in tags so beware

#okay for sunday enthusiasts who want to know asap n dont mind spoilers #honkai star rail #star rail #hsr #he shouldn't be dead as he has a future boss battle #But i somewhat stopped believing leaks after firefly's death cuz it's a bit sus and contradictory 😭#honestly so far we had 3 fake deaths + sunday #technically robin went beyond the death Barrier in penacony #she did die in the dream fr but she should be alive irl #I KNEW SUNDAY WAS GOING TO DIE UGH #GALLAGHER IF U DON'T EXPLAIN URSELF #the same way firefly lived HE WILL TOO #BELIEVE #yu gi oh abridged ref-#also...if Sunday confirmed the connection between death and Gallagher he should be more cautious right? RIGHT???

... not to be annoying or whatever but I hate the take that Rick loved Diane more than Beth as the reason why we never see another Diane vs living with Beth ... because the love for a significant other and the love for a child is and should be different. The way I see it, obviously Rick loves his Diane and Beth a lot but his relationship to Diane as a husband is a deeply personal one that is specific only to that particular Diane. They have a history: dating, marriage, sharing a child, etc. Rick's feelings to and experiences with that particular Diane wouldn't be the same with any other (even if they share similarities). It's the same reason why he stated that he wouldn't just replace Birdperson --- they both have specific ties to him that wouldn't be the same as is often true with a love interest (often times shared personal experiences increase those bonds).

Another Diane could be dead, or remarried, or not into him, or just not the same. A different Diane is not necessarily the same as this Rick's wife.

In contrast, Rick's relationship to his original Beth was still relatively new in comparison to other relationships (i.e. Diane) since she died as a young child. However, (whether she likes it or not) Beth is ALWAYS Rick Sanchez's daughter. Since, their rapport isn't as strong it is easier for Rick to attempt to assimilate into another Beth's life. It is an objective truth that Rick is Beth's father, and thus it is the relationship that is easier to 'replace'. But that doesn't mean that he loves one more than the other as there are incomparable relationships.

Rick's love for his wife is tied to HIS wife specifically and his love for his daughter is tied to her identity as his daughter which is a constant. Both is equally good and valid.

#rick and morty #rick and morty spoilers #rick sanchez #diane sanchez #beth smith #beth sanchez #i'm sorry i just hate that take so much and i see it all the time both here and on reddit #you shouldn't love your wife more than your kid OR your kid more than your wife #you can love them equally and differently #diane is a soulmate and there's never gonna be another one like her #but beth is a daughter and she's always gonna be rick's kid #like rick can fall in love again (i.e. bp) but beth is still his daughter ??? it shouldn't be that hard to grasp #i just hate the take that you should love your s.o. more than your kid i know it happens sometime but i was raised against it #so it makes my blood boil whenever ppl are like rick loved diane and not beth >:(#he loves both but they have different roles in his life #it's also the reason why the way they've been handling the clone thing is such a good storyline too #both beth and space beth are technically his daughter so that love is equal (despite the fact that he may have a preference)#i'm not in a drawing mood rn since i've been busy with work but i had to get this off my chest

i haven't brought myself to watch ofmd yet, but i had planned to, and i just gotta say, i am very pissed for you all

#getting a little tired of streaming services canceling things just because they don't break every record known to man #it's very lame and so many good shows get cast aside for not being the most popular thing in the world #will i still watch it? absolutely #i heard the second season ended well even if it shouldn't have technically been the end #and you know me. I'll never pass up the opportunity to watch angsty fantasy gay romance #ofmd #is this a shitpost?

#random rambles #Technically I'm done with this month's header since yesterday.#Practically I've been feeling so insecure about it I've been procrastinating looking for an icon or uploading it at all #Like it *was* natural to have a downgrade in themes I've said it myself a lot of times. After 24+ themes it's understandable I'd run out–#of inspiration (or even simply material) for the very cool stuff #That said. I did very much spend the whole entire day from when I woke up to when I (started studying at past 2am) went to sleep on it #That's what I get for working with the anime tbh. Bones artstyle is ugly there's little to be done about it #While making it I also came up with other two themes concepts.#One is probably going to replace September's plan and the other idk will probably slid to the next year #Idk looking at this year's planned themes lineup it all feels full of things I'm not skilled enough to make...#On top of everything this February's theme wasn't even what I had initially planned!! The one I had initially planned was a chapter 33 pane #Idk why I didn't follow up with it. Maybe I've just grown to think manga panels are too simple (terrible choice) (rip)#I think the thing that bugs me with both the initially picked image and the anime header I made yesterday–#is that there's no smooth transition with the blog. And I know it's not a big deal but pretty much all my themes do and it's bothering me..#And it shouldn't. Like nearly everyone uses an header that is sharply separate from the blog and they make it work #Uhm..............#Idk I should be studying besides.#I think I'll either go looking for an icon and see how the overall theme looks on the blog. Maybe I'll like it better then.#Or I'll just start over and see if I can use the ch 33 panel I had in mind and see if I'll like THAT better #It'd just be a shame if after all the time I've spent on it yesterday I'd just let it lie unused on my computer #There's also the fact that black and white of the manga doesn't feel very February-esque... (Don't ask)#Ugh. I hate looking for icons it's always the worst part 😭😭😭#I was considering the last Beast Atsushi illustration (because ofc I was) but idk. Idk if I can make it work.#And part of me is also like “don't use beautiful Hoshikawa Beast Atsushi on an ugly theme” LOL #But I also suffer heavily from the lack of Beast in this year's lineup.#Okay rant over. Shutting up now #Edit: If this month's theme is ugly please be kind #Edit 2: Jk I've found like four icons. Maybe I'm just very dramatic

Kind of random thing, but I think (online, mostly) trans rights took a small step back when it became popular to use AFAB and AMAB as a progressive stand-in for woman and man

#trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #mtf #nonbinary #like if what you mean is cis men or women then just say it y'know? no need to be vaguely transphobic #i know i made a post like this but iirc that was specifically about socialization? tumblr's search engine is genuinely /so/ bad #and ik that there are third-party things i can use but i'm on mobile right now and... i feel like that's a bad thing #as in you shouldn't need third-party applications to use a BASIC feature (in this case the search bar)#i love ranting about how horrid of a site this place is on a technical standpoint but really this is the site i've used the longest #rant over if you've read the post and the tags: ily /pl

i wish i could escape to eddie's when i feel out of place at my dad's house. eddie would call it "our trailer" and "our room." he would give me a side of his bed and he'd call it "my side." he would give me drawers to keep clothes in. i'd ask if i could go get something to drink or something to eat and he'd say "you know you don't have to ask. this is your home too," and he'd mean it. i would belong there.

#live #eddie.txt #🦇#my dad's fiance is here and she's nice #but i just feel so out of place around them!!!#first of all #he shouldn't be engaged at all #but second of all #i feel awkward. like i'm third wheeling in the house that i live in #it's weird #i hate it #but it would be DIFFERENT at EDDIE'S #(technically wayne's. but you know)
