Unexpected Guests Chapter Ten, Act Two: Page 12

First / Previous / Next

Finally, a chance to strategize and something to show for it--now it only remains to be seen if Frisk's hunch is right.

It was nice to draw more character expressions for this update! Alphys and Undyne are always fun :>

Since the normal 2-week schedule would put the next update on the day after my birthday this year, and i want to take that week pretty easy, it'll be a 3-week wait this time. Look for the next update on Feb. 22nd! See you then!

#undertale #undertale comic #unexpected guests comic #undyne (undertale)#frisk (undertale)#alphys (undertale)#before anyone wonders: gaster's preoccupied with more attacks from toriel and papyrus' blaster atm #so these three have a chance to talk--though undyne's still keeping her eye on the situation just in case :>

just some LoV sitting in the long lost bar in Ultra Impact in clothes that they didn't wear yet

#not art #bnha #ultra impact #shigaraki tomura #dabi #toga himiko #mr compress #twice #there's not enough space to put Kurogiri in there :(#I can do it but I'll have to make a sacrifice #just watching them talk is relaxing #like... they're all fine and I can literally fill the table with sushi #league of villains #got UR compress really recently #and it was raining Muscular and the other Compress before that #I have nothing against LoV rain but it was unexpected #I still wait for a day the final SR Dabi drops on the acc #for me to have a Dabi team just for fun #I think I have enough Dabi-themed memories for that #if not LoV centered once will come in hand too #I love the fact that LoV gets as much as 1-A and Pro Heroes #like accesories or ur and sr types of the characters #got second copy on Toga off the Valentines recruit #love her to bits so it was so sweet #still no other UR Tomura tho #and I keep trying every banner he gets a chance to rerun #I love the coat one but the variety of UR Tomura's is just...#I did get this one at all at least would've probably just gotten mad with the game otherwise #but I'm chill with this since I do have them #AND they have fillers

i need gale to write a disgustingly saccharine poem about astarion and astarion to be utterly disgusted by the fact that it actually almost makes him cry 👍

#he thinks poetry is a useless waste of time until. well. heh.#bloodweave #idk idk idk. astarion clearly fancies the finer things in (un)life but also mocks poetry every chance he gets #so i just think itd be fun to see him absolutely bodied by an unexpected sonnet about himself #bg3

I’ve been really thinking of reopening my art shop soon… I’ve been taking some practice doodles (hence all the posting lately) while I shake off my rust and I’m finding things I enjoy working on again. I miss trying my hand at more dragons/OCs and colors. my shop’s so broken rn lmao but that’s a problem for a later date it’s just nice getting back into art

#my mental health is starting to improve a bit #took a couple years but I found some meds that finally work better for me #ofc things aren’t 100% but I was really in a pit for a while #like ‘did not leave my house in months and slept 14 hours a day’ kind of pit #so. any improvement is better lol. but nah I’ve been making real improvement and im doing better. a lil shaky sometimes but that’s expected #diagnosed with chronic fatigue too. which is unfortunate but not unexpected. i am indeed god’s sleepiest soldier #i feel like a raisin slowly rehydrating but considering i was in a desert before any hydration is welcome #just learning how to enjoy things again overall #one thing I just couldn’t get myself to do (and enjoy) was art. doodles here and there but nothing to post #and it’s kind of funny because I feel like that downtime actually gave me a chance to think about what I wanted to work on #even when I wasn’t actively practicing #just paying attention to things I guess. enjoying art styles #i genuinely think my experimenting with stained is helping me learn colors #i spend hours in the scryshop im glad it’s paying off lmao #i want to tackle bigger things but i just gotta ease myself into the hang of things again #for now im having fun and that’s coooool. thank you all for your nice comments #i read all tags while kicking my feet and giggling. thank u all #that’s the update on Me tho. more to come hopefully #starting next month/julyish I will have a significant amount of time to dedicate to drawing which i intend on doing #so who knooowwwsss #rambles #funny enough coloring has become my favorite part of the process now. it used to be lineart. now lineart annoys me LOL #i also feel like i kinda lost my ability to write which has been frustrating but im focusing on art first #anyways that’s a whole different tangent rant over

My thoughts keep circling back to some similarities I spotted a while back between the Hasaba twins and Nobara. There's a handful of them, really, from what I can gather -- even if we exclude the fact that both the twins and Nobara originally come from the countryside, which would be the most obvious coincidence.

Take, for instance, Nanako and Nobara's matching personalities: they both are outspoken, confident, brash and boisterous, with somewhat an air of a typical school bully around them. At first those traits might come off as off-putting and offensive, but when you delve deeper it becomes more apparent that such abrasive attitude might just serve as a defense mechanism of sorts and what it really shows is that these girls were taught, for better or worse, how to stand up for themselves.

Then there are curious similarities between their innate techniques. Techniques of all three of them require usage of inanimate objects, and in both Mimiko and Nobara's cases it's an effigy of the target, a voodoo doll -- whether stuffed one or made of straw. Their techniques also allow them to manipulate targets from afar.

Nobara also shows unusually high tolerance of pain, and it's something that keeps bothering me. And though we know that she was trained to be a sorcerer by her grandmother, and being a sorcerer involves adopting a certain mindset, that's not something one can simply order oneself to get used to.

One other thing that doesn't seem to escape my mind is how Nobara was only ever drawn to outsiders back in her childhood, and then proceeded to look up to Maki, finding it in particular admirable how she withstands the oppression of her own family. I guess it's also worth mentioning how Nobara doesn't believe people are excused just by the circumstances they grew up in. Again, I don't think that's an attitude one can afford without facing those hardships oneself.

So what if all the similarities really stem from the background they, Nobara and the twins, come from? I doubt that being a jujutsu sorcerer in a small, enclosed society such as found in a village in the middle of nowhere is a pleasant experience. People get nosy. They also get intolerant towards something they're not prepared to include in their tiny circle. We've already seen how an outsider unwilling to assimilate, Saori, was ostracized and driven out -- and she was just a city girl. We've also seen what being a sorcerer in an environment full of narrow-minded superstition costs.

How much bias and bigotry might Nobara face? Isn't it why she jumped at the first given opportunity to leave for the city? Why she only ever made friends with newcomers to the village? Why she considered all locals to be at least at some degree insane?

I don't know where I'm going with all this, really. If anything, it serves as yet another example of how the conservative mentality of those in charge of jujutsu society harms its sorcerers. Where both sides could've benefited from cooperation, non-sorcerers are left to ignorance and the misplaced antagonism towards sorcerers which that ignorance enables. I wonder if current, somewhat anachronistic, suspicion and superstition that still lingers with some parts of non-sorcerer population are fossilized remnants of the awareness their ancestors once possessed. What was it like to be a non-jujutsu user in the Golden Era of sorcery? Was it chaos and fear of that time which created an unbridgeable rift between sorcerers and non-sorcerers? I wonder what repercussions the current situation would have for the relationship between the two. Would it be history simply repeating itself, or is there an opportunity for real, substantial change, now that the system upheld by outdated tradition is utterly destroyed? Where are we heading with the story now?

#watch me make the most unexpected and unpredictable conclusions out of nowhere #jjk #jujutsu kaisen #nobara kugisaki #nanako hasaba #mimiko hasaba #hasaba twins #jjk analysis #kind of?#dunno #but i really do wonder if the mindset present in the countryside areas is just a result of fear and hatred ordinary people #might have felt towards sorcerers in the past #the negativity born out of helplessness couldn't have been targeted at curses which non-sorcerers can't even see #so through association it should've been targeted at sorcerers and jujutsu in general #god i really want gege to get into politics of his world #though the chances of it actually happening at this point are slim #i just miss these unbelievably strong determined uncomromising and sturdy girls so so much #I have so much admiration for them

How to write romance! ACTION setting

(I'm not good at this. So this is a 30%/70% chance of working 30% chance of working 70% chance of failing. Unless it's lesbianism, anything can work if it's lesbianism.)

When it comes to action. Enemies to lovers is the best trope. (Usually because, "I've been there at your worst. And here I stand loving you, even if what you do to me kills me" or bc of "they stand on the opposite sides of the war, yet all they can remember is the lingering memories of whence they used to hold each other dear in their arms" etc etc. oh. It's a bonus if it's gay. Lesbianism works perfectly for both.) though sometimes, enemies to lovers should end mostly in angst. Cause they get to die knowing it was right beside each other. That. Or they die knowing that they should've gone to their lover, talked to them more. Cause if it ends up in a happy ending only a professional can do that. And I'm not a professional.

Slow burn ❤️‍🔥 idk where the emoji came from it just popped outta nowhere but it works. When writing an action story, slow burn is very much likely needed. You need to build up tension. You need to build up romance. You need to give them a reason why they love this person. You need to give them a reason to understand each other. You need to give them ANGST.

Grumpy x sunshine. Yeah uh. Uhmmm. This one. Writing this in action is hard asf. Unless it's Jaydan then yeah. Bc those two are the definition of grumpy x sunshine to me. It builds up around angst. Where one is in need of comfort and the other comforts. It goes both ways. Grumpy understands what sunshine hides. And sunshine learns to comfort grumpy.

Stuck together. Ever heard of Akutagawa and Atsushi? Yeah. That's basically it. or by some uncertain circumstances. Two people who hate each other or can't tolerate each other have to work together by unknown circumstances. That or a mentor meets an old friend they're on bad terms with but they have to work together because their apprentice is fond of the old friend That's Kayden and kartein.

Fish outta water. Many have not heard of this. Wooin and Jiwoo. Don't got much to say. It's just well written. Especially if it has those balance angst and fluff. Where "I'm not weak anymore. I want to protect you too. I don't want to hold you back." Typa trope in fish outta water.

Second chance. No. It doesn't work that way. I have never written down anything involving this never have I read so who ever put this in the romance spectrum. Why are you so desperate to crawl back to your ex??? Even if it did the amount of angst this story has is just... Womp womp. (Always thought that going back to your ex is a stupid idea.)

Fake relationship. Who also added this in the romance spectrum??? Unless it's like two undercover spy rivals who have to disguise themselves as a romantic couple like Loid and Yor. Then yeah. Write that sh/t down.

Amnesia, isn't this basically, second chance??? Just. Idk. Worse??? Either way it does not fit the action-romance spectrum, oh. Unless they have a happy relationship and the amnesia accidentally happens and the other lover tries to explain who they are to each other and instead of trying to push it any further they just try to do anything within their lovers comfort zone. Yeah write it down.

Opposites attract. Please. For the love of writing. when people write opposites attract. ADD MORE ANGST. no. Don't bring in a misunderstanding trope. Find a way around that. Especially if you want to be original. Opposites attract fits nicely in action. Because there is no such thing as opposites attract. Because eventually one will adapt to the other's lifestyle. Everyone does. It's human nature. However there's a problem. If one is aggressive and the other is passive. Either aggressive will change their ways and be more passive in the upcoming ending. Or passive becomes aggressive so that aggressive doesn't have to have a hard time protecting passive. That or they switch places.

Ehm. I'm not good at adding romance to action. I do know that if it's lesbianism anything works. And if it's gay. It has a higher chance of working in action.

Yes I searched up the romance trope just to see which one would work for action.

AND OBVIOUSLY UNEXPECTED BABY DOES NOT FIT THIS CRITERIA. (That belongs to horror)

Bad boy just. Idk. It fits the highschool thingy better but who in the world likes a bad boy these days 😭 (somebody send me a good gay bad boy ao3 angst. Maybe I'll reconsider.)

Soulmates would be nice too. However it tends to ruin other relationships, and ends up coming out as forced. And I do not want that. Unless the writer is godly professional.

Forced proximity is basically stuck together. However it tends to be more... Womp womp.

Thank you for coming to my writing rant.

#either way im not the best writer im still a rookie-novice andnim just handing out my opinions.#writing problems #writing #action romance #action #romance #ao3 writer #writing trope #writing tips #writing tropes #explaining #I don't really think unexpected baby should be a Romance.#neither should arrange marriage #or second chance. unless the second chancenis basically an immortal person trying to save their never ending reincarnated #over and over again im not gonna fight #either way second chance is angst material

Read On AO3

Ch. 11 of Act Like It

He wastes his whole weekend trying to figure out how to bring it up with Max.

Sinclair seemed pretty on the ball, probably he’s already determined for himself that the Hargrove house is a no fly zone. But he can’t bank on it. Kid seems to have the same streak of brash, stupid bravery that makes Max such a pain. He has to get Maxine on side about this, just in case. So she doesn’t try to do something staggeringly stupid like sneak Sinclair into her room at some point.

#dishy writes #act like it fic #harringrove #billy hargrove #autistic billy hargrove #steve harrington #unexpected update! unexpected even by me. woke up at 4 and finished this chapter that's been vexing me for weeks!#that does mean there's a smallish chance that parts of it are incoherent...

✩🍼🐝Review:

Make no mistake…this book will have you in a chokehold.

“Pretty Little Mistake” follows Lennon Wells and Beckham Sullivan who are forced to work together on a project despite the wounds they still nurse from their failed relationship. But the two can’t ignore their lingering attraction for each other and when one sizzling night leaves Lennon pregnant, they become a constant in each other’s lives whether they like it or not…and they just might be starting to.

I picked up this book after stumbling across the author’s TikTok teasers and it lived up to all my expectations! I loved every single page. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again—it isn’t easy to execute the unexpected pregnancy trope. Oftentimes, books featuring this trope depict two strangers starting a relationship based solely on the fact that they are having a child together, which isn’t a great idea when you really think about it. That isn’t the case in this book. Lennon and Beckham have history and their circumstances only give them a second chance to reconnect and find they’re happily ever after.

Lennon and Beckham’s chemistry is palpable. Their playful banter is endlessly entertaining and their actions speak volumes for how deeply they care for each other. I appreciated how they were both there to support each other as they worked through their respective generational trauma without overstepping.
