(also feel free in the tags to clarify Why you made the choice you made!! :0c)

#polls #tumblr polls #For me I think the top ones would be the House. The Money. or the Friend Group. But I ultimately might would go for the house #JUST becuase it would be my Dream House which means it would already meet mostly all of my specifications #and what I might be looking for. which would save a lot of time searching or customizing/rennovating.#Also because I could use that as a way to leave the US lol.. like .. if I get to choose my dream location.. couldnt I just choose some othe #country?? But I wonder how that works. Can you legally 100% have full ownership of a property in a country yet not be a citizen of that #country?? Would you show up and be like 'erm.. i own this house.. so i shall now live in it' and theyd be like 'uh no. you cant live here #despite owning the house. leave.' ??#So I think the initial process of 1. scraping together funds to actually MOVE myself and my most valuable belongings physically #TO another country. and 2. figuring out how to STAY in that country . might end up being difficult.. BUT. if I could just work that #part of things out then.. dream house?? security for once in my life?? stability?? :0 #Though the $1mil is enticing it's also like.. I feel .. with the way housing prices are now... that's not much???#it's a lot I guess if you plan on like.. investing half the money and staying in an apartment for 5 years while you grow your wealth #or something. but if you're a 'I Need Stability NOW' ready to settle down person who would be most interested in owning a property rather #than nice clothes or a car or whatever other investments you could make then.. eh..?? It seems like unless you're okay with living in #a small town or kind of far away from the city - even some SMALL houses in majorly populated areas in the US will be like #$600.000 - $900.000 or something. like that would be MOST of my money. Which I know you could just pay partially and make #payments on it but idk.. in the option of just outright owning the house it seems like it'd end up being cheaper.#Plus I would want to own it fully asap because I'd be afraid of losing it somehow otherwise. like it being taken for medical bills or #something. which I thought was supposed to be - not IMPOSSIBLE - slightly more complicated legally if you actually have #paid off the house in full. I guess the issue then would be utilities and property tax and such. But I feel like thats overcome-able??#Like I could just stipulate that my Dream House has a little furnished addition or something and then find someone #with money and be like 'Look you can live in this extremely nice area with amazing ameneties and updated everything and ALL you have #to do is give me money to cover the utilities and property tax.'' or something like that. Like the little furnished addition is nicer #than the actual house. they have their own pool and spa and movie room or something and Ill also cook all their meals for them #or whatever (how luxurious it would be depeneds on how high the property tax actually is/how much I would need to entice them into #why it's a good deal for them to pay it for me lol). idk... something like that.. ANYWAY #I asked a few people I know though and one of them answered they'd rather have a romantic partner. the other one said they'd like #to be able to choose someone to die lol.. So I'm curious what people value the most

TW: Heavily implied Child Abuse

Stowaway AU where Pacifica becomes a stowaway on the Stan-O-War 2 after trying to run away from home to California. Things don’t exactly work out as planned, but at least she’s got a “Summer Internship” away from her parents now!

#gravity falls #Pacifica Northwest #Stanley Pines #Stanford Pines #Stowaway AU #my art #doodles #sorry I’ve been gone a while been busy with project and just plain general work #but had some free time today and finally put pen to paper on an idea I’ve had a for a while now!#Pacifica calls Stan by his name but still calls Ford Mr Pines because she’s got that ettiquette and fear of authority ingrained in her #but Stan is a bugger so she feels better just calling him Stan lol #this is honestly just a roundabout way of saying Stan is naturally good with kids I think #the more paternal grunkle lol #Also I feel like ghost rules in the show are ghosts can change their perception based on how powerful they are #since sometimes they’re invisible or unseen by people unless the ghost wills it (i.e. inconveniencing)#but Pacifica’s just too ghost pilled so she’s always seeing them regardless #Ford is very interested in the science of how this works and Stan has to remind him she’s still trying to get over trauma give her a second #I feel like after this summer at least specifically for this AU she’d end up staying with either Soo and Melody or the Corduroys #Soos might even say they’re siblings since he also sees Stan as a father figure and then Pacifica says ‘dang guess I gotta go die now’#from embarrassment lol

did this as a quick scribble at like 1 AM last night and...immediately lost all motivation to ever clean it up. ( ᐛ ) but I had to draw my son being the fanciest little flower boy who ever threw petals down an aisle. oh my god.

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #eternity float #eternity float of the coral sea #surprise! my art actually CAN look worse!#but i just love these fancy lads so much #like i was initially kinda 'CORAL S -- aw no merforms? :('#but i figure they're probably saving a proper underwater event for azul so whatever it's time for HYPE #especially because it looks like it might be WEDDING-THEMED(!!!)#and/or kiss the girl(!!!!!!!)#and honestly for both of those jade is actually the funniest possible ssr choice #sorry leona we found the one event that...no he would still be hilarious. dangit.#honestly though these are top-tier choices all around #if i was going to walk around a beach while jade talks endlessly at me about the legend of the mermaid princess with big sleeves #i could ask for nothing better than riddle malleus and rook to be standing there tossing flower petals at me the whole time #i know it's probably all ~algorithm-based~ or whatever they have that tells them what characters to use #but there is legit a little something i think in doing a kiss the girl theme with those three #the three guys who have some of the most trouble properly expressing themselves #and also jade who i assume just thinks they're all prime sources for hilarity #he will 100% be looking for opportunities to 'accidentally' push someone overboard #bonus points if there's a very fancy cake that they can fall into on the way down #i don't know anything about what the story will be yet but i know that much is true

i firmly hold that it's my duty as a reader to believe it when an author tells me at the beginning of the series that the dragons are gone forever and never coming back. but god it's a struggle sometimes.

#that is: i don't think it's fair to hold that kind of genre knowledge against a specific instance of it #not even because while i've read hundreds of bad fantasy novels someone else might not have read any #but because hm. 'the dragons are gone' is the foundation of a kind of feeling - discovery; renewal; awakening -#there's not a way to get the feeling later on without laying the foundation #so even if the foundation feels like busywork for me the reader #it has to be there in some form or other

even dogs pass the mirror test

#hello again everyone. how's it going #isat loop #in stars and time #isat fanart #in stars and time fanart #isat #lucabyteart #isat spoilers #so. had this idea Before getting my hands on the artbook and being validated. literally have a voice note from 4:30am on the 8th where #i frantically noted down this just horrid horrid horrid caption because i'd been musing on the sasasap Dress line all day i suppose #just kind of rotating in my brain the way any kind of first time trying on new clothes for them would be .#just absolutely mental breakdown material and not one i think would be recovered from quickly. they hate being in their own skin #like. a lot? like a lot. the collateral of any kind of transfemme read was barely in my mind until it ended up relevant again while i was #actively working on this. because christ that's a bad combo. 2x different forms of body dysphoria in one. maybe even 3x somehow #plus any scenario where they get clothes is... likely gifted. something they react viciously negatively to in game and i doubt #would improve thereafter. just a veritable katamari of disgust and self-loathing #like i was mostly just thinking abt how a lot of our collective depictions of loop being alienated from their body are rather abstract #in a body horror way mostly. on account of loop being more of a metaphor than a person half the time. so i think i wanted to depict #something closer to just. a human level of body dysphoria. no focus on the whole duplicate thing just... raw disgust for the self #but with the addition of recent discussion and playing ball more with the she/her loop and transfem loop angle...#scenario of leaning into femininity to try throw off suspicion on who they are PLUS realising they might want that PLUS the party #trying to use this to bond with them PLUS body dysphoria PLUS new!gender dysphoria PLUS the usual revulsion for wanting and desire #like. that is a catastrophic combination . not coming out of that one without it getting worse for a few weeks thereafter #that's a real lash out at everyone around them and then recede in shame type breakdown. which im sure looks interesting from #the party's pov because jesus christ that touched a nerve something awful (<- they only have half the context AT BEST)#. so . there's your free scenario to ponder on if you'd want to. seeing as ive done a picture without a shitload of words on it for once #ALSO don't get smart with me in the tags about the mirror test being an absolutely ass test in most regards re: self-awareness #or that things like minnows pass it. i'm a fellow pedant dont worry. it's just that minnow doesn't really have the same ring as dog yknow?#this is supposed to be like an absolutely excruciatingly self loathing thought spoken aloud of a caption. it's pithy and cruel on purpose #and more than a little inspired by (reblogged yesterday) liminal space's 'there is no other dog. it's just you'

Something Old, Something New.

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #a-yuan #Hey now! It's been a long while since we've seen that hair style!#Something old - in the way you see a little glimpse of a boy that died a long time ago #Something new in a man who has a new direction and purpose. Somehow it is still you. But you can't ever be that *you* again.#I think grief comes from a mourning of futures we lost. We associate it with love-#-but what else do we mourn if not the future we had with them? So too do we feel grief over the future our past self once hoped for.#I love the radish extra because it is so sweet and so full of small sorrows.#WWX is as playful as always with A-Yuan but there is a constant presence of how he no longer sees a future for himself.#Be it in the way he talks about the impossibility of him having children.#Or in the way he creates this silly and artificial game of helping A-yuan grow-up faster.#It's always about the moment to moment with him. Tomorrow isn't guaranteed.#His major hubris moment has yet to come but I would strongly argue that the seeds of doubt were already gestating.#It might be a bit of a 'ship tease' moment when WWX comments that his idea kid would be more like LWJ than himself -#But I consider it to be a true (if unconscious) sentiment that he sees himself as having gone down the wrong path.#It's not a 'I want LWJ to have my kids' moment. It's an 'if I were to have kid - I'd want them to never know what I went through.'#WWX is the parent that breaks the cycle. He walked for 10km through the corpse piles everyday and by god he's driving you to school.#LWJ is also a cycle breaker parent but in the opposite direction. He packs chocolate chip cookies and extra snacks in your bag.

Been thinking about Sun's voice lines again, and the "Attention! This carousel is out of service and will require repairs before we open tomorrow. ... That is the end of my instruction! If I had been programmed with the knowledge to fix it, it would've already been done," lines strike me as so funny. 'Cause like. It implies to me that Fazbear cared enough to keep even the briefing material on-brand with animatronic voiceovers, so they had Sun record the carousel how-to because he was associated with it (or associated with Fall Fest which was the closest they could get), but then they didn't actually tell him what to say or how to instruct, just like,

"Hey Sunman come record the maintenance briefing for the carousel."

And Sun's like, "Sure thing!" thinking they're gonna give him a script or something. And then they just. Set him in front of a microphone and say "go." And Sun's irritated 'cause if they're gonna give him a job they should give him something to work with. But they don't. And those lines are what we get. Brief, unhelpful, and very passive-aggressive. It's so funny to me.

#even if that's not what happened it's what happened in my heart #I love thinking of little scenarios like this #dca fandom #fnaf dca #dca sun #fnaf sun #I imagine part of the reason Sun got so micromanage-y with the staff is because he came to expect utter incompetence #very much an 'all y'all are completely useless so I need you to stay OUT of the way while I do the work myself PROPERLY' attitude #I had someone in middle school who was like that in some of my classes and no shade on her I'm sure she was just as fed up #but it was weird when I was trying to work on a group project and she kept trying to keep everyone out of it and do it all herself #we ended up in a kind of tug-of-war (without fighting) for space for our contributions #an experience I might use for a Sun fic sometime. I think that'd be a neat dynamic

Breakfast time

Let's all pretend an anon sent me this prompt for the Rook&partner's asks (I got real asks from real people, but this was the first headcanon that came to my mind):

5. Do they have different cultural backgrounds (e.g. a Rook who was raised in Antiva with Harding who was raised in Ferelden)? If so, do they ever share parts of their culture with each other? If they're similar, how do they celebrate their culture together?

I like to think there are some cross-clan songs among Dalish (like children songs, in this case), and I totally picture Ayanne, Bellara and/or Davrin to hum them randomly sometimes. If the song is catchy enough, the others would join, more or less willingly ;)

Rook and Bellara are particularly satisfied when they succeed in making Davrin sing <3

A bonus, as usual:

#davrin #davrook #bellara lutare #dragon age the veilguard #rook aldwir #ayanne aldwir #dalish traditions #kind of?#YES FINALLY IT'S READY #this could work for Bellara's week too #but I don't have the patience to wait until Thursday #I also have a follow-up by the way #not davrook but more about singing-things-while-you-prepare-breakfast #I might work on that next?#who knows #(this whole thing is totally not inspired by myself singing kids songs while I cook by the way)#ellynasart #datv comics

drew some of my fav ody designs! wasnt originally meant to be also replicating the styles but thats sort of just how my brain works. except i didnt copy the lineart styles of anyone here so its DEFINITELY a bit uncanny for a couple of these (LOOKING AT YOU QINNY IM SO SORRY) but whatever

the designs featured here (from left to right) belong to: me, @gigizetz, @neal-illustrator, @irunaki, @bigidiotenergytm, @qinnyanimation, and @foopsie-daisy

#WAUGHHH IM SO NERVOUS TAGGING PEOPLE COOLER THAN ME #HEAD IN HANDS HEAD IN HANDS I NEED TO STOP PANICKING OVER STUFF LIKE THIS #bc like I KNOW THEYRE JUST PEOPLE. I WOULD BE SO HYPE IF SOMEONE DREW MY ODY ID LOVE TO BE TAGGED IN THAT.#BUT WHAT IF I AM SHOT. WITH A GUN. gfrdfvb vfrdedrf #i am a very normal non anxiety having person i swear guys #worst thing i did here was have odys hands very visible for the qinny one. because i didnt realize the way they draw hands is very realisti #BUT THEIR WHOLE STYLE HAS REALLY REALISTIC ANATOMY I SHOULVE KNOWN #irunakis style is SO fun to draw in bc its a lot like some of my older art so its very familiar yk yk i wasnt worrying too much about makin #-things accurate. but i think that accidentally made me too comfortable and so i ended up straying a bit too much #i think a lot of irunaki and qinnys styles specifically is in the lineart. so me using my normal style of lines makes them less recognizabl #anyways. neals odysseus i have shit talked in private (its a good design it just feels uncanny w/ jorges voice to me) but hes really-#-interesting to draw. i wanna do style studies on neal their characters have a very. idk animated feels like the wrong word but like.#something like animated. feeling to them. theyre very distinct in shape i wanna do studies thats it #bigidiotenergy i found this morning while FINALLY looking at cloudysseus art and instantly fell in love w their design #i need to ruffle his hair. hes so silly. absolutely incredible design. but GOD was the style a nightmare #it was too late id already comitted to trying to replicate the styles. but ohhh my god its so far from my own it was so hard #theres so much detail in places i dont normally put any at all #and its like. WAUGH its scary i need to do anatomy studies in general maybe #uhh havent commented on the gigi one. he was really easy to draw though lol. weirdly enough gigis style was close enough to my current one-#-that i didnt have any trouble whatsoever? and i think its the most accurate too but only because of the lineart styles being similar lol #ALSO NOT TO PLAY FAVORITES BUT FOOP ODYSSEUS IS MY FAVORITE #I LOVE HIMMM I LOVE HIS SILLY SHAPES HE LOOKS LIKE A WEIRD CAT KINDA. HE INTRIGUES ME.#my ody feels kinda lame next to all these guys gbfdefgbf #but oh well. hes ingrained into my mind now i cant change him at this point /silly i am actually happy w him but i might make changes #thaats thoughts on all of the odys here. anyways art tags time #doodles #odysseus #epic the musical #OH MY GOD EDIT I FORGOT TO DRAW FOOP ODYS SHOES. HEAD IN HANDS. IM SO SORRY

I can't believe Rick Riordan really gave Percy Jackson, darling of fangirls everywhere, a shirtless scene only to describe him as scrawny, weak, unimpressive, and 'not ripped'.

The guy really knows what his audience wants!

#Might be time to take granpas keys away #He dont know how to drive no more #Rick is just churning these books out for the money at this point #while trolling the fanbase along the way #percy jackson #pjo #pjo spoilers #wrath of the triple goddess #wottg #wottg spoilers #wottg crit

one of my fav headcanons for damian is that he's one of those kids who graduates high school early, and i just think it'd be funny if he was going to college at around the same time tim is, for the sole reason that it would drive tim batshit insane.

#dc #dc comics #dcu #dc universe #batman #robin #damian wayne #to tim it's already bad enough that his brother is moving on from being robin before him but damian going to college when he's in college?#i am afraid that would make tim sick to his stomach #tim drake #i think it would be great for damian to take courses at gotham's community college while in still high school and graduate at like 15/16 #idk if tim is currently in college in the main continuity (canon is weird sometimes) but in some of his runs he goes to one #damian deserves to torment his brothers as a treat #you could not look me in my face and tell me that damian would enjoy learning at a high school level bc he's way beyond that #after everything he went through damian deserves to have 6+ university degrees #don't mind me i'm just spreading my damian wayne goes to college agenda #damian should go to college #it’s what he deserves #damian wayne headcanon #damian wayne hc #batfamily #batfam #red robin #to me damian gives off the same vibes as those kids who go to college super young #dc let damian wayne thrive in academia 2025 #i read somewhere that talia was a pre-med student and i think that damian should follow in her footsteps #damian al ghul wayne #going to college at 15 might not be normal to the average person but it would be damian’s normal #damian is being the younger brother he is meant to be by acccidentally tormenting tim #tim is in his third year of college and he walks into one of his required courses only to see damian chatting it up with the prof

personal piece. i've struggled with depression, apathy and disassociation for most of my life, and struggled with emotional regulation. more often than not, any "positive" experiences become Too Much and leaves me in extreme physical discomfort. it hurts to be happy doing something i enjoy. this year i went to the lunar new year festival and had experiences that left me feeling both wonderfully alive, and in pain, burning alive. all i could really keep repeating to myself was "this too, is being alive".

#howlsnteeth #it's actually been a while since i made a piece that is 100% for me without considering what other people might 'like to see' in the artwor #but i would bet others feel the same about this too. i can't be alone in it #the first way i used to conceptualise this experience was like a decade ago and it was #'it feels like grabbing the third rail' [of a train track that is electrified]#anyway. here's to being alive
