Shut. Shut the fuck up.

question: how does it feel to watch people you care about be mistreated? how would you describe that feeling?

i think i'm hilarious -- aka i made blood blossom danny au memes

all of these come from my DpxDC prompt "i am pushing the batdad agenda--" and it's corresponding additions in the reblogs ksdjlf.

i am. rotating them in my head. forever and always. personally i think there should be more batdad aus in dpxdc, their dynamic could be neat. :)

Frank Langdon is a high functioning addict and pretty damn adept at what he's doing as long as everything is going 100% his way. He needs people on his side that see him as a good guy. He needs to see himself as a good guy. He wears a handmade bracelet that his kid made him to work - brightly coloured with his sleeves rolled up. He sits with David after a traumatic event and tells him that Robby was the best man for the job - within Robby's sight line. He wants to get his four year old the puppy he's been begging for - for his wife to deal with whilst raising both his kids as he's out of the house for 12 hour shifts. When he gets caught, he says c'mon Robby, remember how I helped my mother move all by myself? He's taking risks with his addiction, and he's getting cagey and paranoid about it when we meet him. He's jumping at everything as the season opens. He knows people will see him differently if they find out and he knows his career is at stake.

But he's still a good guy - as long as people believe this, they're all his character witnesses. Enter new residents and interns, and as luck will have it, he gets paired with a friendly, bubbly, eager to learn, genuinely happy to be here resident. Ain't that swell. Her desire to trust and build relationships with people that is the perfect canvas for Langdon to paint the best version of himself. So he's charming, he's kind to her, he gets to show off a little because he is a damn good doctor, and it FEELS damn good to be observed as such, especially by someone fresh who hasn't also clued in to the fact that he's an asshole too. He works his shift building up a mentor/student relationship with her. He's not doing this out of the kindness of his heart or because he likes her; Melissa King is a convenient part of Frank Langdon's ongoing plan of manipulation. Her competence means that none of his agitated snapping gets aimed her way (yet).

That's because he's reserving all that for Trinity Santos - the more jaded and less naive med student who recognizes how manipulative men behave. After all, it's a lot easier to never have to see an abrasive recent grad he's not able to intimidate after one day than it might be to never see a second year resident with experience again. He's playing the whole field here, because in his mind, everyone is on to him already. (and best believe he would have thrown Mel under the bus and dismissed and gaslit her too if she had been the one to piece his little secret together)

i was brainstorming alternate ways to port 999, and while the obvious way is to just make it swap between full screen text box and dialogue boxes (like 90% of normal visual novels do. including vlr) but idk, it kinda loses some of that ludo-narrative juice that just cannot be divorced from the original 2 screen format.

so i kinda fell in love with the concept of a classic pc adventure game presentation, a format where it's completely natural to have multiple windows on screen in a cool frame (and you don't have to mess with the aspect ratios of the artwork. but that might be my bias against widescreen talking lmaoo)

and so i've been putting simultaneously too much and not enough effort into making a mock-up

if it wasn't obvious, this is taking heavy inspiration from the save menu screen design.

the dialogue box would be a pop-up window so you'd get to see this design down there sometimes (my justification for putting in the effort of drawing it)

for the final puzzle, i imagine the two main screens popping out and swapping places (or giving you a prompt to swap them yourself, either with a button or maybe drag and drop?)

i haven't quite decided what to do with the upper right area... i could put the adv puzzle controls there but that might be too cluttered, so im thinking maybe there's just like a cool aesthetic detail up there?

my friends just suggested putting the inventory there, or some sort of timer/clock that shows how many hours there are left, much to think about...

bro i still cannot get over pickle ball paul

you mean to tell me in the midst of some of the hardest years of your wife's life to date, mentally, physically, and basically any way something can be hard, while she's adjusting to being a mom of 2 young kids, and after she's been almost desperately explicit about *not* feeling ready for either..... your first reaction is to dedicate an almost full time work schedule, not to something that is earning you any money or has obvious potential to, but to PICKLE BALL??

really paul PICKLE BALL, the millennial parent trend that everyone will forget in 5 years (since we only even knew about it in the first place because we were forced to play it in PE and realized it's an easier tennis???) the sport literally nobody on the street could name a professional player of, or say for sure if they knew it was possible to go pro in??

like I'm sorry if it wasn't so sad it would maybe be the funniest thing in the fundie verse right now for me 😭😭 I think paul desperately cares about being taken seriously but literally none of his choices indicate that. I only know from the palpable insecurity that permeates every video he's ever made.

Here's the full design 😛

(truly the main star here is the cool text, its really cool)

Vibing to A Little Life and suddenly "I know I can never be forgiven for the way my life began and that nothing can repair the hurt I've done"

Ooof. Ouch

And immediately goes back to vibing
