Things that cannot defeat the TARDIS...

Being jettisoned into the Z-Neutrino energy core of the Dalek Crucible.

Being turned into a self cannibalising paradox machine by The Master.

Being shunted into a human body while it's own body gets possessed by a sentient TARDIS devouring asteroid.

Things that can defeat the TARDIS...

One cup of coffee with a splash of cold milk.

I like to think that after a hard mission, these two cuddle up in the nook of Price's cluttered office and take a nap in the afternoon sunbeams, like two overgrown cats ❤️

Isn't it great that the mw3 campaign doesn't exist?

The architect gives me the vibe that their the type of sibling to blow up a tomato with explosives and then blame it on their sibling.

(Based on a true story, well, except instead of an explosive, it was a microwave XD)

oh definitly. Architect never did anything wrong in their life. Trust

Kanade's another cut for the Twilight Light 3DMV is a direct reference to her untrained The Dream I Saw Will One Day 4* card.

ok, once more I realize that my own kindness and friendliness has been taken for implied consent, and as always, the troubles that are brewing now are connected to OCs.

So let me be clear and frank one more time, one last time, because I have NO INTENTION of going through what I went through in 2021.

While I am always immensely happy that my Original Characters are enjoyed and that they can serve as source of inspiration, they are NOT however a template for anyone to base their OCs on.

They are not something that you can take in their entirety, change whatever suits you, and then call it your own.

It doesn't work like that, especially because, and allow me to reiterate this once and for all, OCs are *immensely* personal.

They are an extention of the soul of the person that creates them.

So taking whatever suits your fancy and use it for the "aesthetic" or the "vibes" is immensely disrespectful and, dare I say, rather impertinent, especially when both characters happen to belong to the same fandom.

Now, I am not talking about certain tropes and subjects that are typical of certain genre, of course not.

We are all somehow reinveting something that's already there when we work with OCs and stories.

What I am talking about is taking certain specific idiosyncrasies that make a certain character unique, change them to suit your character, and then being SO IMPERTINENT to just call it your own and parading it around without even having the courtesy to quote the person that has inspired you, taking advantage of the fact that I am just a small creator with a small following.

This is a huge No No for me.

Huge.

I appreciate that other creators might have a different opinion or perspective when it comes to OCs, and while I do not share entirely in that, I sure as hell respect it.

But allow me to be crystal clear: if this happens to me, like it had in 2021, that's the *easiest* way to lose all respect I might harbour for you, and I seldomly get mad or angry.

I am always accomodating, always supportive, and I think I have proven it aplenty in the past few years.

But this is something that I cannot condone nor agree with.

And it's not just a matter of ethic, in this sense: it's a matter of also hurting me, and literally put my whole creative process into shamble.

It's a matter of having respect of others.

Now, you might say: who cares if they hurt you? they are characters that do not exist, just move on and have thicker skin!

Well, as I said above, for when it concerns myself, my OCs are an extention of my own soul, a way for me to formulate and explain feelings that sometimes I have a hard time let out; a way for me to actually face, fragmentize and analyze my own trauma through them;

and most important of all, they are OFTEN a love letter to both the world I am exploring with them AND my own husband and child, such as in the case of Jacob and Dorothea,for whom, as I said often in the past 5 years, I have poured A LOT from myself and my husband's own story.

You could say that it probably my fault for having bared my feelings so much and poured so much of myself into a character;

And you might be correct, because I have learned my lesson, and ever since Dorothea and Jacob, no other character has been infused with as much of my own being as they were.

but that doesn't mean that it stings any less when I see it unravels in front of my eyes.

I am tired.

physics fucking sucks it’s like calculus if calculus was entirely word problems

That feeling when everything about the Switch 2 reveal looked absolutely amazing except for the freakin' price

The cishet lads looking at gifs of Ryan Reynolds crying 🤝 me looking at Jeremiah Queer Eye crying literally every episode so far:

Something that would help balance Arthur even if Jack is prone to shutting his emotions down (unless in private and even then unwillingly and while doing something super painful) is Mina, who maybe didn't know Quincey long but he was important to her and died in her and Jonathan't arms, like how she loved Lucy all her life but he fell in love with Lucy even if he didn't know her for as long. Also both of them lost their fathers (Hawkins wasn't her dad but she considered him as such). They have a lot of common to share now, and Mina is more open about crying together.

Yes I absolutely think Arthur turns to other members of the group for emotional support too! Jack may be his closest friend but he’s definitely not always available and the group’s shared trauma probably makes it easier to grieve together.

I loooove any hcs about how any of the characters interact in regard to recovering from the events of the novel, Mina and art especially bc it isn’t one I’ve really seen before! But they were the two closest to Lucy and shared love for Quincey, so I can definitely see them having a lot to discuss and provide mutual support for when jack is feeling emotionally reserved

Fighting battles that have ABSOLUTELY been seen before (wanting to restart my Animal Crossing New Leaf town so I can begin the game from scratch and as myself as I am now vs. not wanting to restart my town because nostalgia and I'd miss my villagers)

I was doing a thing where I tried every single branch in a good amount of Cyberpunk 2077's dialogue ages ago, and I just have to say it left me surprisingly impressed.

It is largely linear, but not nearly to the degree that I had first thought.

There aren't massive branching dialogue trees, but there are just quiet little diversions that happen so smoothly you don't even necessarily realize you made a branching choice...unless you get in there with time to kill and 6+ reloads. Taking a blue choice or acting in a timed dialogue, for example, can appear to have little consequence at first but has actually quietly shifted you onto one track instead of another.

The effect, I realized, is that as you play it feels like the choices you made are the only ones possible.

First of all, how fucking brilliant. Second of all, it's so thankless - if I hadn't gone back with this silly little project in mind I would have continued on my way thinking it was as simple as it first appears. It reminds me of the first person pov, both in how unpopular it was and how it clearly, carefully supports a beautifully immersive experience. The difference, I guess, is that first person pov smacks you in the face and makes you admit it's brilliant, while dialogue flies under the radar.

Ultimately, I still can't get over how intentional they were with this game, and how willing they were to take risks - and I hope to god that mindset didn't get crushed by the initial reception.

no offense but the Izumi fight in the PSP game is fucking impossible. it's the like fourth fight of the game. I've grinded up ten whole levels just on this fight. I'm 24 years of age. how am I not getting this

I'm really enjoying Veilguard so far.

Using video game character creators to create refs for my TTRPG characters is deeply gratifying. This pretty lady is Gowan and their gender is everyone's problem.

My phone did a factory reset out of nowhere and I lost ALL of my drawings. So fuck it, here are the sketches I've managed to recover by screenshotting and sending them to my friends.
