THE MAGNUS PROTOCOL SPOILERS for episode 4!!!!!
can we talk about how similar these feel
#just the wording#and like#the way theyre both trying to push their respective powers onto their successors#practically forcing them really#and if grifters bone is anything to go by and this one was connected to that old tma episode#we can assume that he did carry on the legacy willing or unwilling#also this statement was literally the most jonahpilled statement that he could read as an introduction#i thought it was jurgen leitner at first but it isnt#i genuinely think this is jonah#we heard jonah speaking through elias but with elias's voice. not jonah's#this has GOT to be him theres nobody else it could be#anyway i just think this is an interesting detail. how similar the inflection is#and the way the voice sounds so proud of itself. i know its mimicking what the author wrote and felt but#hm. hint of projection maybe? i wouldnt be surprised#im crazy right now guys im sorry#tmagp#tmagp spoilers#the magnus protocol spoilers#the magnus protocol

When your brother's new boyfriend doesn't pass the vibe check
#prime arcane#sonic prime#arcane#There are so many bad bitches around why choose a cop Sonic come on 🙄🙄#I say Shadow's quills are like really soft even when he tries to bristle them#doesn't help they're still wet from a shower#a rich privileged kid forced into style over practicality#anyway when I tell you this piece just#Astral projected itself into my brain yesterday morning when driking chocolate milk#and somehow I managed to 1:1 translate it onto digital canvas#it actually looks better I am a God#miles nine prower#nine the fox#shadow the hedgehog#me does arts#actually finished doodl

Poppy for N2 au, it took me so long to make her design cuz I didn't really know what I wanted to do only because I feel like her design is pretty perfect.
But then I just thought about fun outfits to give her or outfits that I would find comfortable if I was wearing them and it all came together.
Poppy here is pretty much the same as here movie counterpart, as nothing really changes on her end of things other than having more insight on Branch through his brothers, and through Lief. Shes also a bit more understanding a bit earlier on because of it but it doesnt do much to change her own character arc I would say.
Bonus
Part of Poppys design was based off a design I had made for previous rulers of Troll Village/Tree
Namely Queen Protea who I designed as Poppys grandmother

Named after the Protea flower which part of her design is based off :D
In the context of this Au Protea was the one who conceptualized the tunnels while her son, King Peppy, was the one to follow through after her death
#my art#dreamworks trolls#trolls#trolls 3#trolls au#trolls band together#trolls branch#trolls poppy#trolls oc#trolls oc lief#trolls oc protea#its really hard to mess with poppy at least in the context of this au cuz like i said nothing really changes on her end#whats changed in this au was just stuff on Branchs side of things#Poppy can witness these things but she herself isnt really changed by them#she of course would have more insight on Branchs life through his brothers and the addition of Lief as a character#but idk if that would fully change her approach with him other than what ive displayed#where shed try to relate to branch rather than trying to force him to relate to her#which would then most likely make her more understanding going forward than she was in canon#im still figuring her out#also since im in the tags and nobody really reads this#i feel brave enough to say#that secretly#ive been kind of sort of#posting a fanfic of this au under the name not the only one#on ao3#and thats where Protea comes from#its not well written in the slightest#but its just for fun and practice so in my mind it doesnt really have to be entirely#but i am having fun with it#so if you see this and check it out please be so very nice to me please

I wanted the culmination of this project for me to be pretend screenshots of some interactions with Hambone, visual novel style. I scripted a handful of things, which I'll be posting in batches! If I were a truly ambitious person I would've made this animated or playable but,
I am not. :)
RPG NPC OC Project
#Some of these weren't perfect for understanding which person was doing the dialogue but#I'm a very “send it to print and learn from it later” kinda guy when it comes to my personal projects lol#I'd been working on this for three months for funsies! I was ready to wrap it up!#Anyway - always read the main dialogue box first before the menu options#rpg npc oc#a2zoc#hambone#I really want to make some of these for my friends' designs they made!! but I was forcing them to finish their refs first ngjkflndsjhk#it's good practice for backgrounds - a thing I hate

Idea I've had for a while: Douglas essentially using Marcus as a service dog
#more schizospec douglas propaganda lets gooooo#but real talk. i have a lot of thoughts on Douglas & Marcus' relationship and why he made marcus#partly it was for sentimental reasons. he was lonely. he missed his kids and he never got to see them grow up so he made an android around#their age w a mix of their characteristics#but it was also partly practical. douglas hates shopping (it's dangerous to show his face in public) he hates cleaning he needs help w a lot#of projects & he doesnt fully trust krane#SPEAKING OF. i also think he made Marcus for protection against krane + to capture ab&c#and adding a mentally disabled Douglas to this just adds an extra layer i really enjoy#marcus was such an emotional crutch to douglas & i really think that (+ the fact that marcus is likely only a few years old)#is why hes so dependent#codependent father-son duo...#to be clear im not saying marcus was a GREAT caretaker but a) hes a kid so duh & b) i dont think douglas really wanted him to be?#douglas wouldnt want to feel like he needs to be looked after. he made Marcus so he could feel responsible for a living thing w/o ACTUALLY#being responsible for a living thing#anyways.#lab rats#lab rats disney xd#marcus davenport#lref#mighty med#lab rats elite force#douglas davenport#lrefmm

i really hate reading them 99% of the time because they're so hard to do well. and because everyone else usually focuses on the things i find least interesting about it.
but it's sooooo fun to imagine what your favorite characters would do as feudal lords. it's a fascinating question: what would this character do with unlimited executive and probably military power over an area of land and its people? people who depended on them? would they be a good ruler? a bad one? would they take it seriously? do their inherent qualities make them better suited to that role than the modern era? or are they truly a product of the time and place they come from?
because I'm me, this thought exercise is a chance to daydream about "what if I held a gun to this character's head and forced them to get involved in politics?", really.
on one end of the scale you have anakin skywalker, who would....not....have done well as emperor, or frankly as any kind of feudal lord. maybe don't give him more power over life and death, or taxes, or food supplies. maybe don't.
on the other end of the scale, you have jed bartlet, who i truly believe would have been more comfortable with unilateral authority and a divine mandate. somebody make that man a king. let his staff profess their undying devotion to him on their knees, the way they so desperately, secretly wish they could in canon. i feel like it would Fix Them. Leo McGarry wants soooooo badly to swear his sword to Jed. you know it in your heart to be true.
#alternate universe#fic ideas#ish#anakin skywalker#jed bartlet#not all stories are suited to this au#but many of them are#for instance in my continued madam secretary rewatch#i was thinking about 'what if we just crowned elizabeth mccord queen of something'#except you couldn't just have her be a member of a royal family straight up#obviously she starts as the sole surviving heir of some backwater fiefdom#that either already does or is forced to practice absolute primogeniture#and she does a great job#while still being loyal to the king (conrad)#whoooo lets say has to put down a rebellion of some kind#and ends up calling nobles back to court#ones he can trust and ones he can't#to shore up power#and elizabeth turns into some kind of ned stark esque figure#only with actual political instincts and ability to relate to people who are different from her#and it goes really really well

I doodled Sangria and Valentina by memory erm it does look kinda janky I know, from IDV on those rainbow colorful scratch paper things!! :33


These two are definitely my top favorites for sure, Sangria is always first though for me haha <33
#sangria idv#opera singer idv#valentina yaga vasiliev#peddler idv#identity v#fanart#art#doodle#but it's on paper this time woah traditional#rainbow scratch art doodle thingy#I already draw wifey Sangria a lot so I could do okay with her without reference at this point#but I’ve lately been practicing loads doodling Valentina cause#I really wanna be able to draw her well and consistently a lot!! I really love her honestly I need her so bad#bro I’m about to just post constant Sangria and Valentina related art this point#sighghhh thank you IDV women for forcing me to want to learn to draw better to do them all justice 🙏💚#also my friend Duck said Valentina looks high with how I drew her and the background I’m crying pls help me 😭💀#ah yes my two favorite expressions to draw: concerned confusion or loki crazy

you dont have to answer but do you know any nice meronia people who dont mind that view and maybe have fics on it too
honestly, a good chunk of the meronia people i know don't actively mind that angle on the ship (including me, to be clear!! it's not my own read but i'm fine with everyone's angles so long as they're nice, which is how most of my friends feel too); you're genuinely so welcome to reach out via DM, or (if that doesn't work or if you're shy) send an ask or leave an AO3 comment with your discord or email. that being said, people under 18 should not attempt to contact me outside of asks or comments. thank you!
#asks#sorry i do realize i was probably a little forceful on this whole thing but it's really a matter of#not wanting to say something i don't agree with AND not wanting to make anyone feel bad or stupid#for their own opinions even if i don't agree with them#there are particular things i feel that i. as a matter of best practice. do not say publicly

bcc the one currently kinda stagnant wrestling stable that i’m fully ok with remaining together indefinitely bc despite them not really being involved w anything important at the moment i like them being together on principle
#made this post cuz i someone said samoa joe should do a hostile takeover. sounds like shit from a butt cousin#but i 150% see ppl being bored. they’ve been chilling for like 3 years#i want them doing more interesting shit Really bad#but between mox needing a break for like a month & bd on his final hoorah tour idk what they could do in time#it’s definitely about time for some infighting & tension. but :(#also they were clearly headed that direction. claudio had that disagreement w bryan about working w eddie#then eddie’s knee exploded and that wasn’t a problem anymore lol#shit idk i rlly want swerve to stay champ but i also want them to force a belt on bd cuz it’s Bryan Danielson etc#<- mentioning that cuz maybe bd as champ for a sec could lead to something w bcc infighting. im spitballing & that sounds annoying#bc that’s not in their character. they’re all practical guys with similar worldviews that support each other#i just want it to be satisfying & lead to something meaningful & not be clunky & forced#bc i know these guys like being in this faction for shoot lol#i’m a MARK for WRESTLE PERVERTS#shut up about wrestling#sure i’ll tag this for real#blackpool combat club#bcc#bryan danielson#jon moxley#wheeler yuta#claudio castagnoli#aew

I want to write I want to make girls be weird about each other in MY word docs I want to have creative projects and goals againn :/
#but i am. so tired#i also don't want it to be something i'm forcing myself through because i feel like that always backfires#this year to me has really been about figuring out what is actually important to me and in what ways i can push myself to grow without#sending myself back to square one again#i can kind of feel myself gearing up to create things again and have wants and goals again but it is sooo slow#absolutely everything wipes me out mentally which i guess it always did but now i can like. comprehend it!#i know what is happening in there but i am so clumsy at working around it. i hadn't practiced that a lot before#it's taking like multiple years to recover from stuff that other people seem to recover from easily#it's sooo annoying and it's not really about feeling like i wasted my 20s anymore#i am where i am it was my life and i spent it the way i did so far. i just can't change that#it's more about like Wanting to do so many things and feeling like there is the potential for so much and feeling held back by my own self#there are so many things i want to try now that i'm doing more than bare minimum surviving and it's like i want them all at once#but i can't possibly do them all at least not yet there just is not time or energy or money to do them all right away#i have trouble prioritizing

Straight up tripped into (Inquisitor!)Jeanne/Solas and saw into eternity.
It's like. One of the most hilariously fitting ships she has ever had.
Shit boy I die!!
#blah blah#dragon age#look at me. look into my eyes#pina had no idea what the fuck he was up to and came to greatly dislike and distrust him#jeanne would clock how and the very basic why of some of his shady actions#but also trust him *implicitly*#b/c of how far he'd be going out of his way to heal her fade hand which would be reacting REALLY BADLY to the blight in her blood#he would be absolutely dying of guilt#not only b/c of the mark and what it does to her#but the herald of andraste makes people retroactively think of how she stopped the blight and suddenly she's not just the *herald*#she is *andraste reborn*#they make her practically a god!! and she is clearly SO uncomfortable!!#meanwhile this smart dryly funny guy doesn’t admonish or snap at her for always talking in circles#he talks in them *with* her question for question#forces her to be straightforward in a way no one else ever has#and yeah he's committed to tearing down the veil but the extra complication is that he falls for a *human*#the tearing very possibly being a death sentence after he BARELY manages to keep the mark from killing her#and how does he!! cope with!! trying to figure out how to keep the first person to keep up with him in eons alive!!#just. how has this NEVER occurred to me before. fuck!!!#tag rant

do you ever wish you could use a memory-erasing gun on yourself so you forget about all of the characters and stories you've come up with but which you know you'll never bring to life and thus have become more of an existential burden than anything
#melonposting#as it is i can't force myself to stop thinking about them#but if i did somehow? permanently? i don't think it would be much of a loss#like sure... i've spent years with some of these but i don't really care... i know i probably can't do anything with them anyway#is that a sad thing to say? i suppose it is#but at least by my judgement it's a pretty realistic and practical sentiment#whatever joy it brings me to think about character xyz is joy that can be found elsewhere#without the eternally unfulfilled desire to make something out of character xyz#it's like having a crush on someone i suppose. and you know it'll forever be unrequited#you get enjoyment out of thinking about this person#but at the same time you'll know you'll never be with them and that disappoints you#at some point isn't it just better to move on from them and stop having a crush?#it's certainly the most logical thing to do. but of course our brains don't work that way. but ideally speaking#it's weird to make that analogy though considering my strange experiences with crushes#but that's neither here nor there. or is it?#i do very much want to make my stories into finished products other people can engage with#though of course that isn't necessary for them to be good or valuable or real#and yet that's always the expectation isn't it? that if the idea is one you enjoy that you need to make something out of it?#that if you bear the idea you bear the burden of bringing it up to maturation#at least it is for me. and perhaps that expectation is to some extent externally imposed#that every means must have an end#but if it is... it's still an expectation i feel internally. it manifests as a desire i myself have#and to that end i'll forever be unsatisfied with a story i deem promising but which shall never be fully embodied#(it's also worth mentioning that it might be a bit pessimistic to preemptively declare that they 'never' shall be embodied...#...but given the state of things i deem it highly likely at the very least. i certainly don't want to give myself false hope)#is there any surefire way to make yourself stop caring about something? it would be helpful#it would save me much time and energy if i ceased devoting my thoughts to beautiful lost causes#may contain nuts

Jason, especially in that one Teen Titans comic, often complains about the lack of pants he has. And I'm haunted thinking about that at all times
#he clearer wanted to have pants. or at the very least. something more suited for cold environments#boy was in the fucking arctic. pantless. and then teased for asking how wonder woman wasnt cold. he cant catch a break 😔#its just so weird. so wild#im not sayijg. entirely. that bruce was forcing jason to have the same costume as dick with no changes for him#but also.#he was. like he was clearly stated in comics to be doing that with thw whole#makikg him go by robin making him wear the robin costume saying he is robin now. not acknowledging him as like a different robin#no villains really pointed out. only harvey bullock did. i miss harvey bullock so bad#like. its more of a subtle hes not allowed to change it. where i dont think he really thinks he can ask#wpuld jason habe been able to get pants if he directly asked? well.#i want to give bruce the benefit of the doubt and say yes#lets just say that#amd obviously this changed with tim#probably bc the writers wanted to steer clearer of making a possible dick clone or copy#but like in universe#bruce either realized making your kid dress uo as your other kid is kinda fucked. wanted tim to have more protection#couldn't stand tim looking like jason. or tim was firmer in getting a new suit where jason was more passive about for many possible reasons#or something else. who knows. its all up to you#he doesn't even have like a winter suit or something. dang. bruce you're a million billionaire or whatever#you can afford fancy heaters in both suits but you cant make robin some spare pants. he was in the arctic.#i dont careee they were just walking to the fortress which was warm. he had no pants OR long sleeves#when jason was left to his own devices to make his own suit he had covered legs and arms. the shorts is not whats in his heart#why DONT they have winter or colder weather outfits huh.#i can forgive the robin uniform because yknow running around working out working up a sweat#but my disbelief can only be suspended so far#when snows involved i simply cannot accept it#but thats leaning away from canon and more going into “if i could whatever i wanted and redesign them to be vaguely more practical”

ALSO im not too familiar w the latter half of forces english translation so idk if its similar r not but its SO wild how badly their implying that eggman straight up like. MADE made infinite in the english localization ver?????? to me like. ???????????????????? its so fascinating.
#v interesting#sonic forces#like from the dialouge ive seen of the translation its not like. made out to me like this that much? like from the wording and how#its framed its v obvious that eggman is strictly referring to the phantom ruby when he talks about his creation r whatever yknow.#but esp latter half of the eng localization like they REALLY want you to believe INFINITE himself is eggmans creation#not just the persona etc. like literally infinite.#infinite n phantom ruby r practically the same thing here which is SOIOOOOOO SO fascinating#compared to the translastions thing of like. separating them but kind of ignoring infinite yknow??#like either way no one treats him like hes a person really#but the way they go abt it in each version rots my mindddd
