I mean, Northanger is giving “everything will be alright if you keep me next to you” frankly.
#which is the best line in 22! to me.#northanger abbey#it’s just like. I just want someone to stand next to#but valid#I do think a little bit you grow out of that as you get older#not in essence maybe! but the need is not the same at almost 30 as it is at 17#but yeah. reflecting!!!!!

"just as I did, in 1983."
you'd never know my favourite parts of the show are the fucked up insane bits when my first instinct is to draw the cheesiest thing imaginable
#my art#interview with the vampire#iwtv amc#iwtv#armand iwtv#daniel molloy#armand#armandaniel#devils minion#drew this before the finale but idk maybe this is during the unspecified amount of time between armands divorce and daniels press tour#the titian painting doesnt fit at ALL with the timeline btw#i THOUGHT it did bc i assumed 1508 was when armand was turned into a vampire BUT upon reflection thats more likely the year he was born#and even then the painting was made in like 1510 so fuck me i guess. also im foggy on when armand was taken to rome#idk man i havent read the books and i failed art history on two separate occasions i cannot endeavor for accuracy#anyway as much as i love 70s/80s devils minion i have equal love for old man daniel#his cynicism has been tempered by time... refined like a diamond... he dont gaf and bullies his loser vampire and its hilarious#like ''sure yeah fine all these old italian renaissance guys saw ur ethereal otherworldly beauty but literally anybody can see that''#''IM the only mf who gets to experience the incandescent joy of seeing you be a messy idiot''#sidenote trying to make armand look unflattering is impossible u can blame the show for casting the worlds most beautiful man

people making fun of trans masc and men’s names always falls so flat, because they tend to be some of the most beautiful and classic male names that exist? liam, will, jack, finn, izzy, viktor, lucas, theo etc . and you know if we were instead en masse choosing names like apollo, achilles, hades, dionysus they’d find a reason to make us feel pathetic for it too. one can make anything look stupid if you try hard enough, and people try really hard when it comes to trans men and mascs and what we choose to do with our own autonomy.
#for the record i fucking love all sorts of names that trans men and mascs pick out for themselves#i’ve seen dionysus a few times and i am so obsessed it’s crazy like. more men naming themselves based on greek mythology please.#actually just any mythology ever. being a trans guy is sick as fuck and it hits so hard when the names reflect that#i also love devastatingly average names. steve. bill. harry. like fuck yeah. i want to see a harold. maybe a greg.#trans men i love you#transandrophobia#anti transmasculinity#mumbling mind

i know it’s like years old at this point but i love that one collab mumbo and grian did with tommyinnit bc it’s like the single most concentrated example i’ve seen of mumbo’s Chaos Nullification Powers
you get to see a bit of it on hermitcraft, mostly via his interactions with grian, but until seeing that collab it didn’t really hit me just how completely mumbo can no-sell other people’s attempts to control a situation. tommyinnit is possibly the single shoutiest, most chaotic minecraft youtuber out there, and in most videos i’ve seen he pretty much overwhelms everyone else and sets the tone for interactions because of this. but mumbo just. doesn’t let him. no matter how much tommy escalates in intensity, mumbo reacts with *exactly* the same energy he always does. grian largely comes across in the whole video as annoyed and reluctant to engage with the whole thing, but mumbo’s not even affected. he just rolls with anything he finds funny and basically ignores anything he disapproves of, only seeming more and more unflappable the harder anyone tries to get a rise out of him.
AND imo, this is the key to my favorite interpretation of him as a character
see, when the people around him are being more reasonable/calm, i think mumbo often comes across as anxious and a bit easily overwhelmed. the thing is, his nervous wet cat vibes do not scale. he has one setting. his responses to the last life ‘ah-ha!’ jokes and to hermitcraft 8 starting to crumble to pieces under a falling moon are almost identical.
mumbo jumbo is inexorably and eternally Just Some Guy, but that gets stranger and stranger the weirder his surroundings become. the giggly incredulousness that makes him an easy target for goofy puns looks Very different when it’s also his reaction to the impending end of the world.
#anyway yeah i have this whole idea in my head about mumbo’s friendship with grian from a characterization standpoint#bc i agree with the somewhat? common consensus that being friends with mumbo has made grian softer and friendlier over time#but i don’t think it was in a ‘reflecting back the kindness he’s being shown’ way#i think it’s because the more harsh and chaotic you try to be towards mumbo the more you feel ineffectual and out of control#and grian can’t handle it so he slowly becomes nicer until he feels like they’re on equal footing again#like don’t get me wrong i think they genuinely are good friends#and i don’t think this is necessarily something mumbo is doing on purpose#but i think the power dynamic going on under the surface is much more bizarre and weighted in mumbo’s favor than it seems at first glance#mumbling

You must let go of what once was
Let it go as a wave

You must leave it all to survive
You must get back

Doodles based on conversations about Twisted Glisten and Rodger with @tdlizardowo :3. Mainly with the Mini AU thing I doodled the other day where Rodger does solo runs down to the Twisted floors to meet with Glisten.

|| "Well, what do you normally do when I'm gone?"
|| "Wait for you to get back..."
Based on an idea we had that Glisten literally just. Sits outside the elevator waiting for Rodger to return whenever he leaves. Probably sits with his head turned to the side so he can listen against the wall for the elevator moving in the shaft.

|| "he's gonna come back for this isn't he
he wouldn't leave this it's his favourite briefcase he wouldn't leave it
if he comes back for this that means he comes back for me right
he's coming back right
|| please please please please please don't leave me alone again please"
We also made the headcanon that when Rodger was first going to see Glisten and trying to get his trust back with him, Glisten had such low self esteem and such high anxiety at that point that he thought literally anything was holding more importance in Rodger's eyes than himself. So Rodger would catch onto this and leave items down there with Glisten, the latter of whom would basically hold them hostage until Rodger came back (I also think sometimes Glisten would outright take to nicking stuff off him to hold hostage as well, something he felt was significant enough that Rodger would come back for it had he lost it).
Rodger would slowly get Glisten to realise that, by doing this little habit and being nonchalant about whether an item goes missing or he leaves something on accident, that he really isn't caring about whether he leaves stuff down here or not - notes, a briefcase, research, whatever - it's *him* that he's returning for, because helping Glisten and keeping him company until he can find a way to cure him or get him safely up to the lobby without other Toons being worried or scared of him is the most important thing to him. Glisten is more important to Rodger than some silly items. :)
(Also I choose to believe the briefcase has lore as being a birthday / debut anniversary gift from Toodles to Rodger that she convinced her Toon Handler to help her get for him)

Also the OG SpongeBob scene for the first image :)

ROLE SWAAAAAAAAAAAAP. Debbie can now be eligible for the worst parent award! No real thoughts for plot ideas yet, just messing around with a design.
#the brainrotsreal's art tag ✧˖°:*♡#invincible rotating in my mind#digital art#fanart#procreate art#invincible#invincible fanart#debbie grayson#invincible au#viltrumite Debbie#And If I call this AU mommy issues what then? HUH#she wears red instead of green cause evil murder color.#I am tired rn lol#but yeah opposite Debbie so opposite color#Much like Nolan she doesn’t deviate far from viltramites uniform either#Keeping some elements#Obliviously the red. Blood on her hands. You get it.#Everlasting just sounds fun. Like she’ll outlast all of humanity. If she hunts you down you’ll run out of energy. You cannot escape her.#Her success is inevitable type feel? Yknow?#His uniform is slightly diff to reflect her but idkkkkk#Lighter pallets for her cause Viltrum uniform. Red and pink and grey is always on her#some way even if it’d just one color#Using brain rot to make me get better at anatomy because I am a genius#She tells mark why the fuck did she give birth to such a failure#For all the months she created him. Felt sick. felt fucking awful. And this is how it turned out! He will earn the life he’s been given.#Fucked up in a diff way lol.#Finale has just as much violence but diff psychological damage#Mark ends trying to prove why he deserves to live why he’s born#self esteem is in the negatives here#he clings to heroism to prove his worth. Desperate for public approval. He is always patrolling. Ends up paralleling his mom by working all

lore dropping
(★ my Kofi)
#my art#trolls band together#trolls fanart#trolls bruce#trolls brandy#trolls#yeah he's talking about JD here#something something grief and trauma and finally being able to talk about it with someone who will LISTEN#idk i like to think that bruce did a lot of growing and reflecting over the years and eventually let go of his resentment for jd#(cause he recognized that jd was struggling just as much as the rest of them and channeled it in the least healthy way possible)#only for all that resentment to come flaring back up when jd showed up on his doorstep talking about the perfect family harmony again

I know we talk about the Devlin house reflecting a possible future where Charles’s father killed him but have we talked about the Devlin house reflecting a possible future where Charles doesn’t break the cycle of a abuse and perpetuates it towards his own family
#this is inspired by realising that mr Devlin is listening to music that Charles likes#and yeah we get the bit about his dad destroying his tape of it#but it still puts Charles and mr devlin as contemporaries#granted Charles would probably be a tad younger but not by a ton#also this paints Charles stepping in as him taking agency and breaking the cycle in a way that he’s learned over the years of being dead#this also puts Charles’s time dead (aka time w edwin) as a net positive for his mental / emotional growth#which I think reflects Charles talking down the wwi ghost in ep1 well#nice lil subtle touch about how the boys have been good for each other <3#dead boy detectives#dbda#edwin payne#charles rowland#dead boy detective agency#payneland#save dead boy detectives#dbda meta#dbda discussion#also if ppl have talked abt this and I’ve just missed it/misunderstood it everyone ignore me pls n thx
