#that one is the weakest

[frogfacey]

just saw someone on reddit asking if there's any touhou mods to replace ZUN's art so they could introduce their friends to the game without being "put off by the ugly art". You do not deserve their cunty slay fighting game sprites if you cannot learn to love a touhou girl in her natural habitat.

Consequences of your actions

figure skating set right now please. thanks

Sorry to bother you. I wanted to ask if you were willing to give advice on how to avoid the 'Friends Who Never Hang' tropes? Because I'm hesitant to make more main characters because I'm not sure if I can make their bond close between all of them and you seem to have a grip on the Heartless gang's relationship. Thanks.

I had to google what that trope meant haha - but that's a rlly interesting question!

At least for me and my storytelling preferences, I think my stance would be that there's actually no need to worry about making a close bond between *all* of your main characters at all!

It's a bit hard to articulate, and I'm definitely thinking from more of a manga mindset so bear with me lol -- but trying to make sure that everyone on your main cast all get along with everyone else on the main cast, and feeling the need to give a 'proper' spotlight to every possible combination of characters to convince your audience that 'they really are all friends with a close bond, see how they all hang out!?' Can run the risk of looking like this:

and leave your story feeling bland/stagnant as you kinda slog through unnecessary scenes between characters just for the sake of proving that they do all interact an adequate amount.

Whereas - (again, at least in my experience) - building a group primarily around their ties to your Main-main character(s) like this:

is a method that leaves much more room for you as a writer to both focus on the character that's specifically meant to be at the forefront, while also making it easier to explore which other combos could then actually be fun to give more screen time to in order to *build up* those close bonds, rather than worrying about the end result and just trying to make everybody get along right from the get-go!

(Also! Don't feel like if you start out with a bunch of varied colorful connections that they all have to be turned into bright green friendly bonds by story's end! Making some characters a bit closer over time but still not besties is a-ok! They can unite for a common goal but still get on each others nerves forever! There are no rules! Be cringe, be free!)

Konnor: Tim has to be the chillest Robin. He's snarky, but I bet that guy doesn't give Batman headaches.

Bart (wearing a beanie that's covering his eyes): Probably.

Meanwhile, in Gotham…

Red Robin had been punching the Riddler for ten minutes and had been beating him up for about twenty. Batman stood to the side, contemplating pulling Red Robin away, but the last time he did that too early, he was greeted with an elbow to the mouth.

Batman (attempting to reason with his son): I think he's had enough.

Red Robin (pausing mid-punch): Nah, he wanted to say something about my mother. I'll give him something to laugh at.

Red Robin resumed wailing on the bleeding, trembling man.

Batman: I can understand the reaction, I'd be pissed if he insulted my mother especially with what he called yours, but-

Red Robin (seething with rage, slapping Riddler): Shut the hell up, or I’m shoving my fist down your throat! Have to deal with Firefly, I'm having insane people thoughts and he insulted my dead mom!

Riddler (weakly): I'm… sorry.

Red Robin (with a twisted smile, beginning to choke Riddler): Say it five more times, and I might stop. Beg! Beg!

Batman checked the time on his phone.

Batman: Alright, let me try this nerve pinch Ra's taught me.

Batman calmly walked behind his son and pinched a nerve on the man's neck, causing his eyes to cross and his tongue to stick out.

Red Robin (falling to the side): Sleepy time.

Batman picked up his son.

Batman: That's right. Let's take you to the car to nap. Edward, stay there.

Riddler (slurred words): I'm not… shure it's shafe for me to shtand up… Reshting here until I'm at Arkham is the shafest choice.

Hello!! long time reader, wanted to share a thought i just had

So what about wolf in sheep's clothing stiles & sheep in wolfs clothing Derek??

Derek who's a bit softer than most of his pack(soft by hale pack standards which is Not a saying much-) with feral by human standards stiles

Derek being worried he'll be too much for stiles because he's only heard rumors of stiles losing it, then he sees it first hand when stiles tries to claw a guy's eyes out for touching him, sees stiles kill a hunter with a baseball bat for taking a shot at Derek, biting the fuck out of Derek's neck trying to muffle his moans and scratching his back till he bleeds

Maybe stiles even catching stiles in the act of spur-of-the-moment killing Kate with his bare hands??

I love feral stiles and I know Derek does too

(Peter approves cause stiles always manages to get himself out of trouble)

Should we call it "Of sheep and wolves"?

It's all about Stiles who seems awkward and funny and harmless but if Derek so much as frowns, he will go to war for him. He is underestimated, and he uses it to his advantage all the time, because he's feral as fuck

And then there's Derek, who is surly and gloomy, he flexes his biceps and snarls, and everyone thinks he's a murderer. But then he'll come home and take his mate to the sofa and lay on Stiles' stomach, hugging him tight, and just turns off his mind and his aching soul. And he's suddenly soft, and Stiles handles him like he's made of diamonds - hard but so fucking precious

the fact that the sequel trilogy could have perfectly set up a three v three scenario where the main trio could have each taken down their counterparts (poe against hux, finn against phasma, rey against ren) before they defeated snoke together so you could explore their characters and pasts and show the differences between the dark and light side of the force. and not only did they not do that but they basically screwed over the trio as a concept entirely

I don’t know if you’ve ever combined isekieran and isecarmine.. but I think it’d be really interesting to see Kieran possibly distrusting her from the original Hisuian Zoroark?

If you don’t want that- I do wanna comment that I absolutely adore Kieran getting Phione. He deserves it. Love your art btw

ohhhhhh my god wait. Wait. Hold on.

Okay I've been considering a scenario where kieran sees carmine for the first time after getting sent home and doesn't trust her at first but that was always in the context of solely the isekerian au. I assume you're implying here that Kieran and carmine get sent together to hisui which is fucking diabolical considering one of the main differences in these aus is that Kieran keeps his memories and Carmine loses hers. And they get sent there at point in the DLC story where Kieran was being a complete jackass to her?????

ARE YOU SERIOUS ISECARMINE'S ACE IS A ZOROARK TOO THAT'S SO FUCKED???????????????

[himulrai]

was planning stuff for the orion swap au with these two and then i realised theyd actually have an insanely funny dynamic

PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE I AM BEGGING HEAR ME OUT ON AIRACHNID X DARKWING DO YOU SEE THE VISION PLEASEEEEE
