A final post of the day for the moment

An actual opinion? On this pointless blog? Yeah yeah I know, okay. Vampires. Vampires as an illness are something I kind of picked up from project moon with bloodfiends and their portrayal in canto VII so it's safe to say I have a fair few thoughts here. As well some things from Tsukihime. Tsukihime treats vampirism as an unnatural existence spawned either by the Earth itself in a case like True Ancestors/Arc with Dead Apostles being the pretty strong walking blood bag for the TA in question. TA's do not themselves require blood as per Arc but do feel a ever increasing thirst in their unending lives. Dead Apostles being walking corpses start just about every day with a heart attack and a genuine NEED for blood of another as preservation and suffer the same increasing need as the TA's that spawned them initially creating a scaling issue. These are things with a human heart if you can't reject that you won't ever make it as a dead apostle this is best shown to us via Satsuki in tsukihime as she suffers this unfortunate fate and our protagonist Shiki has no choice but to put her to rest. She would kill, and keep killing without an end in sight hating herself all the way. Sad as it is, it is an illness like any other and this makes for a neat parallel with the illness of the Tohno family the all consuming maddening sickness vile in SHIKI/Roa that it offsets actual possession in the far side routes. Project moon treats this...much the same? Strangely but it acts on a familial structure with the first kindred who does not feel thirst as heavily it would seem due to their immense strength but all others spawned into the family certainly do. It is a spread illness transmitted amongst a twisted family which leads to regret and even rebellion to such a degree there's even a phrase for it in "filial impiety". This isn't a thing in tsukihime. the EXPECTATION is that a dead apostle obey on the threat of strength alone but there is no true binding to the creator as there is in the structure of something like the Mancha family. They both spread but type moon takes vampirism as an exclusive yet dangerous disease in how it creates dead who are essentially the same as pm blood bags. Vampirism IS an illness both of the mind and body so one only finds pity for those who have it. In my mind at the least it presents an interesting thought to twist, turn, and shape to my heart's desire that day but remembering the ugly horror of something inhuman which once was and the true loss is something I can't quite formulate at this moment but I hope this post is enough for all to get to know some of my thinking. It destroys one to think without consideration.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

I'm still processing 7-13, in the meantime have this super quick thing! of all the things that happened that I didn't expect, one of 'em certainly was a not insignificant subplot revolving around Silver unintentionally committing international mail fraud.

Okay can I be a bitter Anders fan for like. Just 2 minutes here lmao

Cause bioware released some game stats for veilguard and apparently 72% of players redeemed Solas which is like. Okay yeah the game kinda pushes you towards that. But when I think of all the shit I used to have to put up with just for enjoying Anders like at all and…

(This is not me being anti-Solas, I do not care if you love or hate him, but I am gonna say what he’s done is like. Objectively worse than literally every other companion so lmao. And that’s fine! You can still enjoy him! I’m not saying you can’t and it’s important to me that people understand that! I’m just saying he did in fact do objectively morally worse things in game than Anders did and I don’t think that’s really debatable. And I can’t really make my point here without saying that but I do want to make it clear this is not some moral condemnation of Solas enjoyers cause it’s not)

Getting anon hate on the regular, being told “oh you’re allowed to like Anders as long as you regularly talk about how much he sucks��, people gleefully describing how much fun they have killing him ON your posts about the fact that you like him, the devs making jokes about shitty fates for him when fans asked innocent questions about him, the absolute audacity of his writer to say half the shit she did in interviews (about bisexuality and mental illness, most critically), and then being beaten over the head again in inquisition about how Anders is the worst character to ever exist and there’s no redemption for terrorists who lie to you one time in the entire game and he deserves death or worse and that’s it

And now… 72% of people are down to redeem the guy who lies to you for 2 games straight and who did a lot of questionable things that includes creating the fucking blight and. Like. I guess I’m glad that Solas fans can live in a world where they aren’t constantly harassed and can give their ship like. A pretty damn good ending all things considered. And that the devs love Solas and actually give the option for that happy ending and have characters go to bat for Solas throughout the game and the most annoying thing they have to see are people making scrambled egg memes. I would not wish anyone to have to deal with the shit Anders fans had to put up with back then cause it sucked. It really sucked. And I’m glad it’s not being repeated with a different character, if nothing else

But like. Man there really is a difference when the writers actually like the character who does the thing, huh

My favourite part of reading about people starting to watch 9-1-1 is when they go "i know y'all said Buddie were like that but I didn't think they were like THAT".

Because no matter how unhinged we managed to make them sound, actually watching Buddie scenes happen in front of you in the show is absolutely batshit insane. It's truly a once-in-a lifetime-you-won't-believe-it-until-you-see-it kinda thing 😭

Enter the Crow King, merry wanderer of the night.

He's a little charmer, even when your best mate has captured and jailed one of his crows! He wants you to stick around for a bit longer, though...

@i-am-as-normal-as-you-are commissioned this one, of course! You guys have been waiting for Monty for so long that I feel like I would never have gotten around to drawing him without some help lol

(@m0scorner I stole your gloves. They're just perfect)

Bonus dreamling, because you know the Crow King is stealing that aesthetic:
