I haven’t drawn a lot of guns previously and I’m not particularly familiar with them in genetral, but I tried my best to crossreference parts and equipment between multiple people

Hopefully it looks relatively correct…if not, at least I had a blast! :D

when did you realise you had really become a Phannie™️? to me, as a new phannie, was when i could guess what year each pics/videos were from just by their hair

picture this. it's 2014 and you're 21 leaving the country for the first time ever to do a short term study abroad in the UK, you have been theee biggest cringiest teaboo since you were 11 years old. you have spent your whole life waiting on this moment for a thousand reasons.

so you're finally strolling the streets of london in your oxfords just like you've always dreamed of. except ALL YOU CAN THINK ABOUTare these two fuckass youtubers you've been watching for 4 years. what are they doing rn. omg i wonder where they are. haha imagine if i run into them on london eye or something. no i need to take a photo of trafalgar square For Reasons. oh we're close to the bbc...that's crazy haha.

(also anon you should send this ask to other people bc it is actually a really fun question to think about)

Hey, it is so great to see a fellow Arcanum fan in the wild! Thank you for all the art. Virgil is the best!

And it's so wonderful to know that there are still Arcanum fans out there! I'm filled with so much fervor to make fanart!

And Virgil is the best! Here's a WIP of something I've been working on for him~ 💛

[themadwomanherself]

The most fun thing about researching information for your fanfics is just the wild stuff you end up learning. Along with the massive amount of time just trying to get things figured out and it's literally just background knowledge.

Gods, I love being a fanfic writer. You learn such random things.

Yes. I have spent untold hours just figuring out where the hell the Tsugikuni clan could have possibly been located and who their superiors were. And yes, I have that info figured out.

ohhhh i just now realized something that was definitely a subconscious inspiration for emelin's dress, for the rope across her hips... it's all coming together

[johaerys-writes]

One day, I'll have a harrowing therapy session and won't feel like impulse buying a bunch of shit afterwards. One day

hihi!! :]]

for the ask game:

✨ what draws you towards your hyperfixation? what is interesting about it?

*waves* hi ghost! Thanks for dropping by!

(we're going to do this about the dca because we've basically been hyperfixating on them for 4 years now ummm)

Okay, was drawn towards the dca because 1) I absolutely love the concept of two separate people sharing a body and mind, and the conflicts that ensue as a result of it. I am very good at overanalyzing, so anything that carries even a little bit of symbolism or depth is enough to get me hooked. As for what's interesting, I think it's a combination of the way they're portrayed in fandom and the theories that people have about them, as well as how malleable they are - in terms of both character and personality. I mean, their backstory has a viewer draw a number of possible conclusions, and the way they carry themselves (even though they were on screen for a relatively short time) in relation to their situation and themselves is absolutely fascinating.

All in all, the dca is just really neat and fun to dissect from a literary perspective :D

[sheyshen]

i think i might be a bit overdue for a stress spam so if you see me reblogging a bunch of posts of the same character in a row a little later i'm fine i promise

[sundial-bee-scribbles]

also wait random ass poll out of curiosity cause ive been thinking abt it lately

(to be clear im not talking about other silly nicknames like "church boy" or whatever as much as i love those lol, i'm talking strictly in the sense of shortening his original name)

[coricomile]

As a note, because it was brought to my attention that sometimes my excitement/disappointment cycles can come across as very rude when interacting with others in the same fandoms- if I become negative about something, it's usually because I want it to succeed. I am so excited for the bones, but when the meal is delivered, the meat attached to them is just fat and gristle.

I also have a tendency to have very long and winding ideas but trail off in the middle because I get tired of typing/getting them out of my head/connecting all the dots on my internal murder board out loud, but still post what I have because I still want to say it and hope others can finish my thoughts with me.

I am trying to be more considerate when replying, but I am very blunt and tend to speak in what looks like absolute statements because in my head there's a lot of the conversation already filled in, so of course we're already on the same page. But sometimes we aren't even reading the same book.

So, apologies in advance if I come off as mean or talking over your points. I am a person that tells a story of similar pain when someone is expressing how they're hurting to show I understand and have felt the same way. Some people take comfort in that, some people think I'm trying to one-up them in their time of vulnerability.

I am excited! I am SO EXCITED to talk to people that enjoy/hate the same things as I do! I want to share thoughts and argue about the little details in a friendly way. Arguing without stakes is fun! Debating isn't about who wins or loses, but all the interesting points a different view can bring to all sides of the table!

Having a loved one describe to you the way they've described you to their other loved ones when you aren't there is game changing. One of my favorite people in every single goddamn universe told me that when they told their brother about me they described me as

"Tall, with crazy dyed curly hair" as well as a whole other host of things that I can't remember specifically and don't want to risk putting words in their mouth (although I do think the words smart, hot, cool, and punk also were said? I can't remember)

Which like. My 5' 7" ass (170 cm) who has wanted to be "actually tall" and has always wanted "real curls" instead of the weird wavy/curly mess that I try to make behave into "real curls" who got bullied hard for a lot of things was sitting there like. On the verge of tears from how loved I was. I feel like even now typing this out their description is too high of praise, but I trust them with all my being so I'm trying to believe them.

To be loved is to be seen the way you've always wanted to be. To be loved is for someone to share how much they love you with the other beings they love.

Discovered Obsidian (the writing tool) for myself and actually think it's pretty neat! It uses Markdown for text formatting, which is cool because I use that all the time at work anyway, and it has a bunch of cool features like creating canvasas with Notes, pictures, links etc, linking files and and and. I think I am going to overuse the canvas feature so much. When I prepare to write a fanfic I often go out and collect a bunch of pics with the right vibes, cause my brain is very visual, and I like to have different documents for Notes on the story outline and on characters' backgrounds and motivations and then separate ones for (each chapter of) the story, etc. Being able to put all of that on a canvas and have it ready at a glance while working seems very compelling :D

The tool is free to use and you can create an account for free as well. There are some features you need a paid subscription for, but as far as I've seen in the short time I've looked at it, the free stuff is already pretty great.

Shoutout to all of my writer friends, who feel like checking out something new <3

Thinking about finally throwing all my FF7 meta analysis and lore deep dive stuff onto a sideblog. It'd be reblogged from here, but I'd be able to organize it a little better, have a directory so people could find things more easily, and maybe it'd stop people from regurgitating things I say word-for-word for brownie points when they can just find and reblog the fucking original post(s).
