Ok so immediately here's some things i noticed while pausing through the episode
First of all: gangle's drawings. Incredible as always

Then there's also kinger's character sheet. Nothing super interesting, but it is pretty funny

Here's the bit i was looking for when i started looking through the episode: jax's hallway bit in the intermission.
We must consider the implications of the frog. 🤔
(Also the abstractions surrounding him?? Boy are you traumatized or what. What happened bro)
Finally, as i was looking at that, I also noticed this right beforehand:
A mannequin guy without an X over its picture. Possibly/probably the same one that appeared at the end of the episode, and also appeared in the background of previous episodes.
Edit: turns out it also appeared at the beginning of the episode and i completely missed it. My bad-
PART 2 / PART 3 / BONUS 1 / BONUS 2 / PART 4 / PART 5
#im excited to see the theories that emerge from all the new stuff in this episode#im also bracing myself for the inevitable jax maid dress art.#tadc#the amazing digital circus#tadc spoilers#tadc episode 5#tadc ep 5

whichever one of us is a person first
#warrior cats#moonpaw#warriors#wc#changing skies#the elders quest#anyways. im bracing myself for however they handle moonpaws character and the 10 billion years of discourse it will cause#interesting idea! many scary potential routes of execution!#vague caption lyric from the song gemini by evergreen#i was wanting to do a cinderheart thing like this to the song but it feels way more on the nose for what theyre setting up with moonpaw#whether that connection ends up cool or uncomfortable yet to be seen i guess

Mighty Nein Origins: Caduceus Clay has been out for a little bit now, so thank you sincerely to anyone who has enjoyed it!
As ya'll know by now, the script and the colours (!!) are the true highlight of the comic!!! On my end, my goal was just to put my entire ass in it in such a way that I would be happy to pull any page out to slap on as a wallpaper/print. This was great at the beginning, but made me want to cry towards the end. No regrets..?
#sirius draws#mighty nein origins#caduceus clay#critical role#as soon as the script said he was going up a mountain my ass was running to one#also im a firm 'one hiking pole' truther mostly because i want one hand free to grab things and brace myself

botw2 (totk rewritten) ganondorf design (+some story) post

Mummy version what link and zelda discover beneath hyrule castle when investigating the failing shiekah tech and discover a cave system that leads to several abandoned shiekah research/security sites and ultimately lead to a cave in which ganondorf is still sealed away by the ancient queen of hyrule; after the initial sealing (or capture rather) her descendant and the shiekah, who were rapidly advancing their tech at the time, build around it, both to keep the seal secret and safe (as the actual sealing was a short but intense battle between him and the queen that wasnt intended to happen like that, in the middle of the throne room that got broken and both ended up in the underground, the only survivor being the young princess of hyrule from that time- since all involved parties except for her died little was known as to how and why but the stories were spun regardless and ultimately the final narrative was in hyrules favor) and to use ganondorfs immense spiritual power and magical skill- eventually becoming one of the main power sources for all shiekah technology (ouch)
the chamber is all shiekah built (post sealing) and similarly secured like the monks in shrines (though visibly decaying and failing)- once disturbed the remainder of the ancient queen fused into zeldas hand (with seemingly no effect but temporary pain, perhaps she will hear voices from the past telling her not to explore any further .. still working on that) ganondorfs body falls to the ground but then springs back to life, somewhat clumsily but fiercly attacking zelda and link, the shock from being in this horrendous condition between life and death for thousands and thousands of years and suddendly being thrust back into his decayed and used up body still fresh
the mastersword is broken and links arm destroyed, both link and zelda start to flee from the crumbling cave, zelda dragging link behind her in panic (and as he is hurt)- after which link gets his shiekah tech arm (and the arm stays gone) and the world changes
mid game fight- this game is not as free in progression as botw, you can do alot when you want but some things will remain locked, the mid game fight can only happen once the 4 main regions problems have been dealt with (very different to canon totk, but that is for a different post) and the castle, which fell into the underground shortly after the intro, is made accessible (specific way how still in work) the interior is both broken castle, rooms previously blocked, and shiekah tech- since beneath the castle was a whole, giant array of tech made to secure the castle, including reserves of ancient energy specifically for the royal family and the entire mechanism behind the rising pillars filled with guardians-
at the start of the dungeon link is grabbed by malice/miasma hands and dragged into the castle, seperated from zelda and the mechanics she introduced (crafting/reparing weapons and more), theres no way out, teleports are blocked; after getting further in alone, zelda finds you again, and nothing seems out of the ordinary (unless you have a keen eye, she only uses her left arm and would walk past things she usually wouldnt) after a certain amount of progression, without warning, as soon as zelda is out of the cameras view she will attack you relentlessly, not speaking a word and with changed eye color- after fighting with her/beign chased into the main throne room, the real zelda breaks through a wall, her friends in tow (yunobo, teba+tulin, riju, sidon, which she went to to ask for help, explaining the time gap), and ganondorf drops the disguise, a fight with him (mummy version) ensues, though he is very much back to his senses
at the end of the fight he shows (or forces her to see) zelda his last memory from when he lived, the confrontation with the ancient queen to his sealing (since she doesnt know/is in denial of her families role in both all this and the sonaus (zonais) extinction (as well as the betrayal and persecution of the shiekah later on), and his beef is with her specifically, link is just her guard dog after all) (i wasnt sure to include a direct scene from the past, but this one scene is very self contained and gives alot of context while still letting most of the past be a mystery- as i want to keep it as feeling ... removed and unknown as much as possible from the world you know)
(after which he leaves the scene as zelda tries to understand what she just saw)

post revival Ganondorf (beginning of end fight cutscene and phase 1.) only appears at the end (excluding the possible cutscene in the mid game fight, which shows him in his time, alive, which is a different design than this that i will make for a cutscene/story post)
the end of the game is in/on the forgotten plateau (it ends were botw began :) ) perhaps it rose higher and revealed an entrance after more game progression (at least one more dungeon, master kogas, and the restorations of the master sword via deku tree dungeon and sword quest involving the dragons; how much of the past you cared to explore within caves, which ARE the underground- its in several bigger and smaller, harder to access caves, each being somewhat to very unique and reveal more context, is largely irrelevant, it mostly serves to give YOU more context and make you think)
the dungeon is within the plateau, once to the end there is a longer cutscene of zelda trying to talk with ganondorf, now in his, largely, restored form (largely as in, not exactly as he was in past, clothing difference etc), her having come to understand what her legacy is and wanting to take responsibility for it; he listens calmly and talks to her for a bit (but the tension is very high, he knows what threat he poses and his goals, zelda is visibly trying to keep it together) and for a bit it might look like she can avoid this conflict
but he makes it very clear then, that she cannot undo anything, there is no possible price she could pay, he has suffered at hyrules hands for generations, having seen the world that was his home grow into myth, see his own people forget him, and how the history was remembered, not as it was, but as they wanted it to; he is forever changed, ripped from his time and all he ever held dear (there are clues and a mention of him having had two daughters, a little boar figurine, carved from wood of trees now extinct, hangs from his belt even now)- he wasnt a perfect king, but well liked and kept his country to stay strong against hyrules schemes .. until he fell- he is not truly alive, he is in a strangers world and this world hates him, it is anger and hatred, rage against all that happend, guilt for having failed his own, feeling betrayed by them yet, even if not truly their fault as no one knew what really happened except him, but he was imprisoned, with no breath to speak nor air to scream
he does not care for this world and his only goals now are to disrupt as much as possible, be the unstoppable force that hyrules always been, be the monster they wanted him to be, do as he wants until someone stops him ...and kill zelda to end her rotten family- but even if she gave up her life willingly he wouldnt take it, she will have to fight and make her own hands dirty and she does not want to die.
your friends arrive, and the battle begins.
(rough examples of his weapons are further below; he fights with one arm only in phase 1. then reforms his missing arm with malice, borrowed from the boar appearance, though it is not usable enough to truly replace it, it acts more like beasts claw and to copy some of links abilities, like the hookshot)

Beast Ganon(dorf), normal appearance (phase 3)
at the end of phase 2 he knocks out your friends, changes into beast form and attacks you, zelda using her magic to shield both her and link so he cannot bite through, instead smashes them both through stone and dirt all the way to the surface of the plateau on which the fight continues, this time only link and zelda
(his movement isnt a senseless rage, but a graceful being, he moves and jumps, floats and swims through the air as the ground in an almost dragon like way, he still wields magic, not all malice, but lightning and perhaps even more too, it is still him, just a different form)

Beast Ganon(dorf) while charging magic (phase 3)

Ganondorf phase 2 + Ganondorf phase 4 (slightly out of order but the boar wouldnt fit on one picture with other forms)
at the end of phase 3 (beast) it seems like you have beaten him, he is down and zelda takes charge, ready to do as she did to the dark beast she faced before (dark beast ganon in botw) but as she raises her hand a sword slash cuts off half her right hand- he is not done yet and refuses to be dealt with like that again, not by her hand again-
the final phase is a mix of all, including his appearance, this is the final struggle, to give every last drop of strength, the hole in his chest is open, malice eyes staring from within, it keeps him alive yet still-
zelda is disabled for this fight, she has been taken to safety by your friends, this fight is all on link to finish; while this is his most desperate and vengeful form, he is not senseless either, he summons his sword to attack you with as he did in phase 2, then throws it at you, quickly conducting lighting to it and while you are busy dodging lunges like in beast form (to paint the picture a little), this fight is supposed to be truly challenging.
(heres a rough example for his weapons)

(not fully sure of the ending scene, but there is supposed to be a short view into a timeskip in which zelda also has half a prosthetic hand made from shiekah tech)
#ganondoodles#art#zelda#tloz#ganondoodles rewrites totk#botw2#ganondorf#legend of zelda#... it was supposed to be more focused on the design and less about story#but .... i do be writing#most design notes are on the pictures i hope its readable#and the lore dump isnt too much ...........................#i am actually really really nervous about this#bc i want to do ganondorf justice but also feel like im using so many tropes that in turn its just as bad as canon totk#aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah#also it took me over an hour to write all this#i always get carried away and start describing things like its darn book nhjkdfnkjdnkfjd#anyway im gonna hide in bed now#long post#accidentally so but i dont have the heart to delete all that text#nor to spend another hour describing stuff again ..#do tell how you liked it if you made it all the way through ......... im bracing myself for criticism#like i like all i came up with but dont know if it comes across as i want or writtten badly or maybe its not good#just what I would like more ...........................

I lived, bitch. I did it,,, I made an animatic again after 2 years…! And it’s not an old thing just dumped out! 😭 I’mma be honest, it’s not reaaaally spoilers exactly… but it sorta falls into it in a zig-zagged way. The timing’s off slightly for my liking, but at this point I shouldn’t complain about little things like that when making one at all was the huge hurdle. Rip my subscribers. THANKS AND BYE.

ive just drawn my most beautiful ryuunosuke yet. for a memey injoke with my friends. please enjoy him regardless.

falls to my knees in shame
#ryunosuke naruhodo#my art#tgaa#suggestive#<-I GUESS#im really happy with the coloring. marker roll brush and i are in an enemies to lovers situation en#*rn#im rly happy with his eyes too!! i like to be pretty game accurate with facial proportions but also add my kind of more realismy style#and i think i nailed it this time around#i hope his cheeks look pinchable enough#i DID accidentally make his waist too thin but i dont feel like going back to fix it. i was using myself as an anatomy reference so hes-#-not as fat as i typically like him to be in my art#but rest assured next time im going to draw him chubbier#i do imagine him to be much skinnier precanon thiugh so idk. maybe this is precanon ryu#I FORGOT HIS KENDO BRACE ALSO so yeah. precanon ryuunosuke#forgive me father for i have sinned

hector is so trans its kind of unbelievable actually. and i don't just mean his insistence on hiding himself which already deeply gives the vibes in general. I mean he outright says he likes what he is, but doesn't feel he looks enough like it, feels his appearance doesn't measure up to the role he prides himself on, doesn't want to disappoint you with it and is agonizingly self-conscious of this. makes himself speak in a huskier register until you find the real him and he thanks you wholeheartedly for making him feel what he was afraid to be for so long, seen. for gods sakes the picture of "himself" he sends you if you ask is filtered so that his jaw is squarer and his facial hair's more prominent like good lord just give that air vent T already please
#date everything game#date everything spoilers#hector date everything#hector valentino airnesto condicionado#also some other things: the way he thought at best he'd be considered cute and not beautiful that just like.#hits me as a transmasc who came out at the height of tguys being primarily praised/perceived as being Small Soft Uwu Beans TM#[ cause we are inherently more feminine than cis men by nature of our sex and feminine is when youre delicate of course /obvious sarcasm ]#oh oh also see also “i apologize for my appearance” COME ONNNNNDUUUUDEEEEE i had to like brace myself for that scene lmao#king u are beautiful. lets be trans men of color with body insecurities and attachment issues together <3333#also on a much more personal level ( than the rest of this already lol ) hector being brown is kind of a crucial part of my reading#i too have felt my brownness distances me from ~traditional ideal~ beauty/masculinity/transmasculinity but also that's like#farrrr more detached from the text itself. sorry im in too deep and also crazy. i know this#trans headcanons#transmasc headcanons#( to ME personally. for the reasons given. if u thought otherwise thats based and i completely get it!! hes just painfully Not Cis imo )

I desperately need fics of post s2 jayvik or even an au with s2 jayce and s1 viktor where we explore the change in dynamic after jayce suffers his own leg injury in the anomaly. Im sure people have already seen all the parallels and analyses of jayce and viktor’s injuries, but it’s just a concept really special to me,,,,there’s nothing more beautiful than connecting with someone experiencing a similar struggle—it’s just so much stronger because of your ability to truly empathize with the other. And obviously that’s ignoring allll of jayvik’s history. I just think there’s so much potential there to expand on the possibilities of their relationship.
#aloonaram thots#arcane#jayvik#jayvik fanfic#jayce talis#viktor arcane#like i wish i was skilled enough as a writer to write it myself#like viktor showing jayce how to properly use a crutch so he doesnt shove it up his armpit#or jayvik fixing each others braces#and how viktor might react to jayces confidence in his disability#bc i dont think jayce would be insecure#and in turn how does that effect viktors own self image?#and what about pain management#i would looove to see them both caring for each other or even viktor teaching jayce the ideal way to care for his injury#also jumping back to the confident jayce#i truly think that if viktor saw jaycr walking confidently in a public space with his crutch and brace#viktor would feel more confident like i just know he’d be breathless at the way jayce carries himself without fear of judgment#but also conflict for conflict’s sake—what if viktor instead felt a form of jealousy? jealous that jayce was able to be more confident#how would that effect their relationship yk?#just…sm stuff i cant#im not disabled in the way jayce and viktor are but i do have disabilities so this stuff really hits home

I just scrolled down my feed and saw (lovely) art of olethra underneath (lovely) art of a character that died in a show I loved years ago and I am suddenly gripped with terror that something will happen to olethra and this is the first time I'm watching dimension 20 live and I don't know what's going to happen and this is exciting and terrifying there's so much uncertainty and it's fun! to be there with everyone else but also ajhhhsjjdkdkdlelelekd anxiety
#like i just started watching acoc#and i already know what happens to [redacted]#so its like okay i can get attached to this character but im already bracing for impact#but if i get attached to these characters?? i have no way of knowing#very “ive only had [character] for five minutes but if anything happens to them ill kill everyone in this room and then myself”#also omg theres ship drama#i didnt expect there to be ship drama#somehow this seemed like a much more mature fandom and i did not expect this#absolutely wild what happens when you are suddenly a part of an active fandom#instead of wandering in years later and its like experiencing a well loved but slightly dusty museum#dimension 20#cloudward ho#cloho
