you always land on all fours
#umineko#umineko spoilers#ikuko hachijo#ikukos turn for a more serious piece... the old man has reigned for too long#now. INCREDIBLY LONG INCOHERENT TAGS RANT INCOMING FAIR WARNING HAS BEEN GIVEN:#it makes me so so sad how little discussion there is about specifically ikuko because imho she fits so neatly into a lot of the more#overarching Big Themes of the game in a way that i have not ever really seen people take notice of or point out in a meaningful way#like even just off of the top of my head. the significance of names and what it means to go by a name that's Not Yours (she has like 4+)#what it Means to be a witch how it represents a person's deepest insecurities and flaws & how its at its core a coping mechanism#the fact that it takes two to create a universe and trying to do it on your own anyways has the capacity to bring you intense misery#^ (how she's shown to be extremely dismissive of her own work and skill until a collaborator comes into her life and helps/encourages her)#and even the family/patriarchy/misogyny stuff that is so prevalent in the rest of the game comes back around to her. even her Only Friend#(young&stupid atp to be fair) remarks that shes Weird for being unmarried + the little she does say about her past invites the question of#to what extent her self-image stems from her family deeming her a freak outcast & effectively disowning her while celebrating her brothers#and i have lot in my mind about the witch thing specifically because i think her particular situation is very reflective of what umineko's#entire magic system and fantasy facet as a whole is meant to represent for an individual. from what little we see of (what is presumably)#her Real personality she is shown to be deeply self conscious in a way that is JARRINGLY diametrically opposed to both 1.) what we see in#featherine and 2.) what we see when she is acting as a Public Figure. because both of the above are very much purposeful acts that she is#putting on in order to obfuscate her true self. and i have always been very resolute & adamant about not totally equating her to featherine#not only because im very firmly in the camp of “featherine is the avatar of the Pen Name & tohya is part of her too” but also very much b/c#i feel very strongly that the stark differences between the two are very centrally relevant to her character & her psyche. as is the case#with most other witches featherine's personality traits serve to reveal/magnify a lot of ikukos inner workings by playing on her#insecurities/reversing them e.g. ikuko being very quick to downplay her skill/achievements becomes featherine being the COMPLETE opposite#to the point where she barely registers even other witches as living beings rather than just fun touys. BUT even though i do champion the#ikuko/featherine separation so hard i ALSO think it is purposefully relevant that at first glance the line between them seems so blurry#her introduction implying a more nebulous separation between her reality/fantasy counterpart is i think is an intentional move on her part#like it is part of the front she is putting up when acting as the Author. as opposed to Ikuko the person who we (in a way ironically very#similar to the way that the Real Battler is presumably only shown during the boatscene) only very briefly get to see take up screentime#which even on a meta level lines up very well with her apparent underlying nature as a like. extremely private largely reserved/shy person#hit tag limit but if by some miracle anyone is still reading this thank you... please see ikuko with the love she deserves... ok ily byeee

anyone think about just how bound up in Love the dream smp is and get overcome with a really intense wave of pain. like yeah bro here's this story that we made into an alive beating thing because we believed it so much and it believed us in return. here's this story that came to life during such a deeply painful time and instilled within you the courage to keep pushing forward again and again and again because this side of the coin may show loneliness but the other side will always always show love. qhatever dude whateverrrrr

Sand
This isn’t real, she thought, as she dug her toes into the cozy sun-warmed sand.
She kissed me this morning.
Kara gazed ahead, watching as the beach waves crashed on shore, warm and sunny against the backdrop of her planet’s destruction. Out across the waters, she could see the great horror of her past: Krypton as it died, damned in fire, debris floating across the expanse of space.
This isn’t real, Kara thought, listening to the grainy sound of sand as she moved her feet to pull her legs to her chest, placing her chin on her knees in quiet contemplation. She wondered if she would see the Danvers home if she turned around, or if that would be another expanse of sand and ocean and Krypton’s death.
She kissed me this morning.
Kara smiled at the thought. Lena had been working in the Tower lab; Kara had brought her doughnuts and espresso. Just like any other morning, they had cozied up on the couch together, laughing and talking.
But unlike any other morning, an odd sort of silence eventually fell between them. Flickering gazes, shy blushes, a tension that they couldn’t tell was real.
And then Lena leaned forward, and kissed her.
She kissed me this morning, Kara thought, eyes glancing ahead to Krypton, I’m sure of it. I think I’m sure of it. I’m…
Kara sighed, lying down on the beach, stretching as she stared up into the blue skies mixing with the fires on the horizon. She kissed me, Kara tried to convince herself, and then the Tower alarm went off right after, and Alex said I needed to get downtown to fight a threat. But she kissed me. I know she did…
“Would you like some company?” came a familiar voice.
Kara grinned. “I’d love that.”
She didn’t watch as her best friend took a seat on the sands beside her. Lena sighed, looking out on the horizon at the destruction ahead, seeming both curious and understanding. “This isn’t your world, Kara,” she said.
“I know.”
“You’re trapped in a black mercy.”
“I know.”
Lena reached down to brush some sand off her feet, frowning in curiosity. “I thought the plant shows you paradise. This doesn’t look like paradise to me.”
Kara hummed. “Maybe it doesn’t know what to do if reality is paradise enough.”
For a moment, Lena stayed quiet, mulling what to say in response. “If you know this place isn’t real, then why haven’t you woken up yet?”
“Because I’m not sure if reality is real.”
“What do you mean?”
Kara could feel the patter of her heart in her chest. “Did anything unusual happen this morning?” she asked.
There was a shy laugh in response. “It was real, Kara,” Lena murmured, “And if you wake up, I’d like to do it again.”
She kissed me this morning.
Kara smiled, breathing in the smell of sea salt in the breeze, eyes still trained on the bizarre images in the sky. “Okay,” she said.
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Lena reaching for her ear, no doubt tapping at a device Brainy had provided. Watching as the figure faded away, Kara closed her eyes, feeling as the world began to morph around her, as though she were weightless and falling and flying all at once.
She finally opened her eyes, noting several figures hovering over her as her eyes adjusted to the harsh Tower light. “Welcome back, Kara,” Brainy said, as she felt the black mercy slither off her chest, “You gave us quite the scare.”
The crew began to shuffle around again. Brainy headed back toward a different monitor, Alex gave her sister’s arm a welcoming squeeze before chasing after J’onn, Nia carried the container with the captured black mercy into a back room.
Lena watched Kara intently.
“Was it real?” Kara whispered.
Lena smiled, and leaned forward - pressing her lips to Kara’s.
She kissed me this morning, Kara thought, and now I can kiss her back.

Feeling sad and lonely? Like you don't have a purpose in life, and no one cares about you?
No more! Starting today, instead of sitting around feeling sad, try Thinking About Your Favourite Fictional Characters Sneezing!
Not sure what to do with your life? Your blorbo stifling an allergy fit!
Lonely and craving human connection? Your lil guy getting induced by a kink!partner!
The days and nights seem to move by in an ever-flowing passage of time that you're just swept along in? They have a sneezy cold and need to be taken care of!
Instead of Sad, try Sneeze instead!
[Available wherever your brain will be merciful and let you dissociate, results may vary, use with caution, side effects may include: h*rny thoughts, snz headcanons, craving more canon snz, and the eventual & inevitable loneliness returning as you realize they are still fictional]

Hey, it’s me again. Just wanted to come by and ask what’s your opinion on Gerson? Sorry if this sounds really random, but I’m just curious to know since his relationship with Susie was easily one of the best relationships in the whole game imo and I wonder if you had any thoughts on it and it’s themes and what his impact on Susie could mean for the rest of the game.
i cannot listen to wise words without tearing up. thats how cool he is
i think its awesome how gerson was like, EXACTLY the kind of mentor figure susie has needed all this time. whimsical enough to piss her off, weird enough to make her laugh, strong enough to really motivate her, cryptic enough to get her thinking, and able to teach her things in a way where she feels lifted up instead of put down. its really really awesome.
which of course makes it all the more painful when she finds out he’s actually dead, and him in that dark world was just a precious fleeting glimpse of how her life could’ve been different if he was in it from the beginning. its all Yet Another example of how ginormous susie’s heart is. she cares and feels so wholly and thoroughly… persistent and trusting and protective to a fault… when she thought she was fighting gerson during the whole ripple section, her solution was to HEAL him, after refusing to attack the entire time. GOD I LOVE SUSIE
slight krusie moment -> a bit off topic but i think a lot about how kris just so deeply, unapologetically wants to be friends with susie. they let themself have that bond with her, hell they foster it as much as possible and stop us when we try to ruin it. i think a lot of that is just because of how susie is as a person, changing everyone around her including ralsei and noelle. she’s going to feel her friendship with kris with her entire heart, so why shouldn’t they do the same? (its funny how its so opposite to how they act around noelle, and yet in both cases, it serves as some form of ‘punishment’ kris gives themself. they distance themself from their childhood friend out guilt, thinking they’re not worthy to be by her side for various reasons. and then with susie, kris is letting themself feel good and happy, all while knowing everything will come crashing down sooner or later. the higher the climb, the harder the fall. losing susie as a friend would destroy them, an emotional death sentence, and they know its likely to happen once she finds out about Who they’ve been working for…)
anyway. i dont really know about the rest of the game, like im not sure of really specific ways it might affect her, but in my made-up AU inside my head where they’re all in their early to mid twenties and navigating adulthood, susie eventually goes to university to pursue creative writing. the concept of Making Your Own Story is really strong in chapter 4, and i imagine it probably sticks with her for a long long time

don't look at me
@the-elder-polls — hello! it is tcs friday, so i wanted to share this piece i made of my ldb road, who enjoys magic, extreme mountain climbing, and never talking about herself, ever. don't worry about it. she's definitely not lying about her name or her age or any significant personal information like that. the mask is just a fashion statement. don't—don't worry about it. 
(she's sixteen. she only started going by road because she thought she got carted to helgen for being an enemy of the thalmor, so when hadvar revealed no one had any idea who she was she was so startled she just blurted out the name of the first thing she saw. which was the road. somehow no one has caught on to the fact that this is a really weird and suspicious name for an altmer to have, even if their parents didn't like them very much. she's come to genuinely prefer it over her original given name, but she's been living in horrible teenage anxiety about it for so long that it hasn't once occurred to her that maybe introducing herself like that at this point is not, in fact, lying, and therefore road does not, in fact, have to feel incredibly guilty about it.
she still does, because she's a emotional disaster masquerading as a functional and mentally stable adult, but she'll get there.
…eventually.)

A fanart for "Do you Hear Their Call?" by @crkfaeau !
I very much liked the fic! And once more I can't just draw simply a picture fanart, no I want a comic..
It is sort of a spoiler as any fanart of a scene may be, but pretty sure that without reading the fic you may be confused.
In other words - go read the fic! Recommend very much! As well as other fics of this author!
P.s. Somehow I liked their fics so much that I got into drawing those guys in their fics apparently?? Thank you,dear author, for giving me inspiration to draw even more! I very much enjoy it!
P.s.s. Hopefully the quality of file looks well btw not btw.

way back in like. march?? I took a stab at writing some kind of kabitserye type of story but it was a mess: it kept veering off into murder mystery drama territory because I was reading a lot of murder mystery novels around then and it Wasn't Good because I hadn't tried writing mysteries, let alone murder mysteries, before lmao
I did write a handful of short mystery stories since then, so next year I might take a stab at this idea again now that I'm no longer jumping head first into a genre pool I don't know how to swim in :)
#now for the part where i have to fight off the impulse to write in some b movie horror elements because ive been thinking about#reanimator a lot lately. ehghghh. thank god for the editing process. to wrangle my thoughts into a linear state of creating#anyway i read an article. interview? on the popularity of infidelity dramas in the philippines and it was poetry to me#and i also enjoy the really intense social melodrama in lino brocka's films. specifically the appearance of morality to cover up/justify#ugly behavior. or like. man i'm tired. whatever was going on in murder by tsismis. that's the thing. someday i'll get more into it#and post excerpts from the actual analysis of the film that actually explains the dynamic im talking around here#komiks tag#original tag#also there's some. vague lingering thought about ikaw lamang in here. not in a way that matters#but in a 'the first episode that i saw was not the first episode of the drama itself and it made me go. oh everyone has rotten vibes'#which is not. well. if you saw ikaw lamang then you know the characters. this is not the takeaway from the show. HOWEVER#i did invent a whole different show in my head between that and when the next episode aired. so.#fake ikaw lamang. ikaw lamang if it wasn't even remotely like ikaw lamang. on the topic of ikaw lamang here's a cringe story for you#still following along. BEFORE i had watched the show. i saw a notebook with franco on it but i didn't recognize the character#i just saw jake in a suit and went oh! cool! i will now Buy This!#anyway i still have the notebook lmao

I really like painting with watercolors!! Can ya tell? 😉😁🤣 I decided to try to paint flowers. Do you know what kind of flower I tried to paint? I hope so, but I'm not sure if you can tell or not. At least, they look like flowers!! 😁I like the bottom one a lot. I think I'm gonna focus on flowers for a while. I like to play with the paint and the shapes. Watercolors are so much fun!!!

i just have beef with tales of the hidden city cause it's like ... would you rather have Second Hand Embarrassment The Episode, the episode that's about fucking Racial Profiling towards an already heavily adultified black-coded character, nuclear family propaganda that comes down to "well he made us so we should be GRATEFUL to him" (seriously what the hell even was that), or leo vibing for 11 minutes 😭😭😭😭

The way Lando (and Carlos) immediately go back to each other after having a hard time and being down needs to be studied. They probably find comfort in each other due to the fact it reminds them of much simpler days aka their McLaren era. They’re soooo Call it what you want by Taylor swift coded

this is exactly how i look and feel like whenever they try to convince us that they're "just rivals" and nothing more until one of them retires, and then go and do this everytime.
#and they have anniversaries and eachother's families treat them like they're already part of them and#they get invited to family private events and they always are there for eachother and so much about them it's A BIG ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM#and it's so odd for rivals in such sports to be like this#being mindful of space between eachother while they're racing and prioritizing you both being on 'the podium together'#(creating one of the most skillful strategies ever seen too)#and caring about eachother's wellbeing when there's an incident#and looking out and speaking for eachother and getting asked about eachother's choices like you're eachother's partners#and they probably actually do consider eachother's opinions so highly its crazy#(let's think about lando knowing about carlos choosing williams before anyone and him defending carlos' choice too)#and all the times carlos brought up a problem because lando in particular was the first victim of it???#(lando's back pain for the seats and carlos bringing it up to fia unprompted)#AND SOMEHOW EVEN ALWAYS HINTING THAT IF THEY RETIRE THEY'RE GONNA BE IN EACHOTHER'S LIVES ANYWAY#AND IF THEY 'HAD TO CHOOSE ANOTHER JOB' THEY ALWAYS CHOOSE SOMETHING THAT THEY'D DO TOGETHRR#either it being a rescue for dogs OR ACTUALLY OPENING KARTING SPACES AT THE SAME TIME#AND THEIR GRANDSTANDS???? GOD YOU CANT TELL ME ANYTHING ABOUT THEM IS NOT INFLUENCED OR NUANCED BY THE OTHER#i dont even know why i am ranting but its getting honestly ridiculous to act like this is not the reality they live in#and its just THE STUFF WE GET TO KNOW#its probably not 5% of what actually they do with eachother or how much time they actually spend together#WE DONT KNOW SHIT#and thank god we dont#AND HELL YEAH THEY ARE A COMFORT FOR EACHOTHER BTW#i think carlos was probably the most supportive person lando had in his career and he was supposed to be his FIRST rival in equal machinery#and yet he took him under his wing he helped him get confident and taught him so much in the same way lando's approach to life probably#helped carlos get better and grow into who he is today... to this day they are so intertwined in eachother#friend it's just too small of a word#i get him actually#carlando#anon ask

I can't think of a better day to post this. I've been working on and off on this for months, wanting to make a tribute to the Joeyverse and the fandom. So today I wanna say thank you. If it wasn't for Bendy, I wouldn't have made the friends I have today or be where I am. I can't think of what my life would be like without them. To the ones who made my life amazing, to the ones who keep the fandom going, and to those who may not be a part of it anymore, I love you all. I hope we can keep being friends for many more years to come 🖤🖤🖤
List of Joeys:

Bluejay- @mad-hatter-ison
Atlas- @ab-arts
Datura- @fishymom-art
Lavender- @lendubsofficial
Gingie- @pipesflowforeverandever
Hyde- @startistdoodles

OC stuff is dangerous wdym you just think about that guy and you feel things. You made that thing and it’s come such a long way like they’ve grown and fleshed out and you’re proud of them. And there’s an indescribable feeling of pride and tenderness and passion and fondness. That ☝️thingie is My Thing and I love them
#_text#put music on that makes you think of them while drawing them and feel one billion emotion and it’s like wow. hits you how much you care#each little brick placed being one more step to making them feel truly and wholly alive. something with hopes and dreams and fears#Rory has really been coming into his own lately and it makes me kinda emotional and I really do not get emotional about much#I really need to elaborate on some of it with art and just substantiate some of my thoughts and feelings cus there’s just so much#I don’t wanna be tooting my own horn cus this post is not just meant for me. it’s for anyone who’s going through their own process#of making a guy or refining an existing guy. be proud of yourself and step back to admire how they’ve grown!! you’d be surprised by#the various ways things form and add up to create something amazing and uniquely you. all the various sources of input and inspiration#that really is the joy of creation to me. and I love seeing how others characters grow and change and evolve. being part of that process#is especially deeply meaningful and important to me. nothing makes me happier than being a small part of someone else’s work#as someone who hates failing and loathes themselves deeply. I can sincerely say with my whole heart that just trying is an amazing step#put down literally anything. see what does and doesn’t work. get the feel for the kind of person they are and then refine that.#mix logic with your gut feeling. emotion with reason. use existing lore or make it up! creation and success is not linear and#it definitely is deeply demoralising at times and as someone pretty cynical about the whole thing. and who hates myself#I can say it really is worth it. your ideas are worth it and even if you don’t believe in yourself yet#the spirit of my post at least is cheering for you!! because seven+ months ago I was in a pit of nothingness and just.#making zero and putting her out there for the first time has changed so much for the better for me#I will always cheer on anyone’s OC stuff. they - and you - are awesome and should exist and be put out there#thank u for reading. this has been on my mind lately a few times so wanted to ramble
