When you’re job literally pays you to stand there and look pretty:

Honestly, I love it when characters relapse. When someone who’s gotten over their anger issues falls into a situation so out of their depth they fall back on their old habits. When someone who’s learned to open up becomes a recluse again in order to cope with something outside their control.
There’s just something so horrible, so toxic, about watching a character grow and then slip back into their old selves in order to cope, bc you know they still care, that they’re the same inside, but watching them hurt so hard they don’t know what else to do brings a sense of catharsis.
#writeblr#writing#writers on tumblr#writing community#creative writing#my writing#fanfic#fanfiction#one of those tropes that has to be played carefully tho#it’s important to show them wresting with it#and realizing what they’re doing#but being so lost in their pain they don’t know what to do#show they’re contrary feelings and that they’re still the same inside#it’s just a defense mechanism#also don’t make it seem like a flick of a switch#a slow process of relapse and a slow process of recovery from it is also important#not a plot twist for the sake of it#or played for drama#but a legitimate change with real consequences#just yappin#writing prompts#writing tropes#writing stuff#writing characters#characters#character arcs#oc stuff#tropes#trope talk

ANT-Tenna and some game accurate(-ish?) ANT Tenna. I drew him normally once and then proceeded to exclusively bug-ify him.
It would be fun if he had to plug in his own AV inputs to the mic/his screen!
#deltarune#tenna#art#my art#fanart#artists on tumblr#tenna deltarune#anyway i had my fun interpreting him into my style#AND doing an unspectacular character design where i kind of try to design him some fun shapes/stylise him#but also consider the original. I LOVE TRANSLATING A CHARACTER'S ESSENCE#not 100% happy with the more normally proportioned one. I wanna have the segmented ant body#but on the other hand tenna being too spindly is soooo damn wrong#but ALSO ALSO he is an UPSIDE DOWN TRIANGLE SO THE LEGS /HAVE/ TO GET THINNER#maybe ill draw more tenna if i wanna get back to a better design

Personally I think that Telemachus permanently and irreversibly changed Athena for the better, more on that at twelve
#I’m sorry for the WORST possible quality pictures and sketches#but they’re fr all I can think about#wisdom saga is where I live now#epic athena#epic telemachus#epic the wisdom saga#epic the musical#epic the musical fanart#sorry to do meta in the tags bug#I think the idea that telemachus’s friendship might have turned Athena into the person she got upset with Odysseus for being#would be delicious#also if you see any inconsistencies in character design or clothes no you didn’t#can’t wait to be able to digital again holy fuck

I want more female characters who are just so bad at comforting others. Not for lack of trying or caring, they just get so so awkward when someone's upset, and they try to repeat things they've heard even if it doesn't necessarily apply to the situation, or they accidentally say the wrong thing and make it worse. If someone cries they panic and throw every single comfort technique down at once and it only helps because it's such bizarre behaviour
This post is for all women including trans women and op loves trans women. Terfs kill yourselves
#Basically I'm tired of female characters having the inherent “good helper/wise advisor” trait just bc they're women#And I'm also tired of the faux progressive female characters who have no emotion whatsoever#People seem to think the opposite of being a good caretaker is just not caring#No no#The opposite of being a good caretaker is not knowing which care to take and when or how.#Throwing water onto an oil fire. Putting blankets over someone who is claustrophobic. Recommending family time to an orphan. Etc.#I want a female character who will be up with you until 3am because you're struggling#But she can't stop quoting Mister Rogers because she has NO idea what to say#Even if she's experienced the same things she just has no idea how to convey any wisdom through words#Etc

Obsessed with characters who portray themselves as worse than they are. Who are lying to everyone including themselves about it. People generally assume if someone's lying about themselves they're trying to look better but sometimes they're trying to look worse. They attribute agency to where they had none, add intent to accidents, try to convince everyone that this is something they did instead of something that happened to them.
#this is about tenko bnha#but it is also about dahlia ace attorney#watch the nezumiVA videos on ace attorney trilogy they're great#anyway dahlia saying she (at like. 6 years old) apparently convinced her father to abandon her sister. hmmm#also everyone including herself thinking of her as the manipulator in control with terry when she was 14 dating a 20 y/o#anyway these characters both did do terrible things but feel the need to pile on more and remove nuance from where it exists#to convince themselves that this is what they really want. that they chose this.#it's about the loss of control it's about being a victim feeling worse than being a villain#at least if you were the bad guy you had autonomy#shimura tenko#shigaraki tomura#dahlia hawthorne

My favourite underrated thing about Louis de Point du Lac is that he truly is the least curious vampire to ever be made and he does not give fuck about vampires despite being one.
Its Claudia who goes to libraries, reads the folklore, tries to learn as much as she can and pushes Lestat for answers about who made him and where the others are. Claudia says Vampire Pride and Louis says hmmm Vampire Tolerance.
And Louis...truly does not care about vampire history,law, culture. He's never even thought to ask. There are vampire laws?...ok...Lestat never cared about them and he's not going to either, lol. He's broken a few and he will continue to do so. Oh you have a coven? he's not gonna join it, he's gonna do his own thing. but good for you good for you.
the 500+ year old Coven Leader, he's gonna call Louis, Maitre, actually.
He has fire powers? thats kinda cool. he'll learn that but only cause it lets him vent his feelings about Lestat.
Lestat and Armand say the name of the vampire queen in front of him and Lestat straight up says, "Louis has no idea who that is" and do you think Louis cares, outside of the fact that for some reason it means he can't kill Lestat? No! Do you think in the 77 years he's been with Armand he ever took 5 minutes to ask a follow up question? No!
Do you think he will care about Akasha in season 3? Doubt it! Outside of her obsession with Lestat, who is the only person left on the planet he seems to be able to filter Caring About This Shit through
He blatantly breaks the 3rd law and publishes a book about being a vampire and when the other vampires get pissed not only does he not apologise he literally sends them his location and says 'you wanna fight? lmao don't miss'
I love him. Daniel Molloy is gonna need to bring his A game because Louis will not be solving a single mystery next season, nor would it even occur to him to try.
#louis de pointe du lac#lestat de lioncourt#armand#daniel molloy#akasha#iwtv spoilers#iwtv season 3 spec#interview with the vampire#iwtv#claudia iwtv#do you think it has occured to him to follow up on why Real Rashid and Talamasca were in his house? no hes redecorating!#and taking back his ex#and this is not weak or bad writing btw Louis cares about 2 maybe 3 people and does not particularly Like being a vampire#this is all very In Character its just also so funny in a protagonist#1k#5k#10k#15k

was talking with a friend about how some of dunmeshi fаndom misunderstands kabru's initial feelings towards laios.
to sum up kabru's situation via a self-contained modernized metaphor:
kabru is like a guy who lost his entire family in a highly traumatic car accident. years later he joins a discord server and takes note of laios, another server member who seems interesting, so they start chatting. then laios reveals his special interest and favorite movie of all time is David Cronenberg's Crash (1996), and invites kabru to go watch a demolition derby with him
#dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#kabru#kabru already added laios as a discord friend. everyone else in the server can see laios excitedly asking kabru to go with him#what would You even Do in this situation. how would YOU feel?#basically: kabru isnt a laios-hater! hes just in shock bc Thats His Trauma. the key part is kabru still says yes#bc he wants to get to know laios. to understand why laios would be so fascinated by something horrific to him#and ALSO bc even while in shock kabru can still tell laios has unique expertise + knowledge that Could be used for Good#even if kabru doesnt fully trust laios yet (bc kabru just started talking to the guy 2 hours ago. they barely know each other)#kabru also understands that getting to know ppl (esp laios) means having to get to know their passions. even if it triggers his trauma here#but thats too much to fit in this metaphor/analogy. this is NOT an AU! its not supposed to cover everything abt kabru or laios' character!#its a self-contained metaphor written Specifically to be more easily relatable+thus easy to understand for general ppl online#(ie. assumed discord users. hence why i said (a non-specific) 'discord server' and not something specific like 'car repair subreddit')#its for ppl who mightve not fully grasped kabru's character+intentions and think hes being mean/'chaotic'/murderous.#to place ppl in kabru's shoes in an emotionally similar situation thats more possible/grounded in irl experiences and contexts.#and also for the movie punchline#mynn.txt#dm text#crossposting my tweets onto here since my friends suggested so

the original tots introduction having ford and mabel bonding a bit more is so cute


and them comparing hands and entwining their fingers (something i hc ford would've only done with stan and his mum when they were super young...)
#mabel pines#ford pines#stanford pines#gravity falls#ignore dipper losing his shit this is rare grunkle grandniece bonding moments!!!#also mabel getting 5 fingers#temporarily being free of the cartoon confines of 'kids gotta have 4 fingers!!!'#still kinda funny how they didn't make that design choice earlier tho despite knowing stan's twin has 6 from the getgo#and it kinda being like 'look at how weird gideon is cos he has 5 fingers despite being a kid character'#but for tots they're like 'shit shit we need to give kid stan 5 fingers'#also hand over the nwhs storyboard scene for the reveal hirsch!!!! i want that first shot of ford but he has that goofy beard!!#but also it's super conspicuous that soos isn't in the tots storyboards at all lmao

late night sunset thirst trap.
#do you get thea now.#this is what she's dealing with#mlp#sunset shimmer#my art#grand galloping 20s#so *technically* sunset is not transmasc in the au canonically. or at least post-op?#i'd say she's canonically genderqueer but yada yada they wouldn't have gender affirming care like this in the 1920s#i'm just being self indulgent#also sunset in the au is bisexual just like in mlp equestria girls canon#very intentionally making sunset the hottest character in the au cast lol#i've wanted to draw sunset smoking and shirtless ever since reading imamwolf's fanfic

I love this book to death, so here's some things I noticed <3
#hyde being short is quite possibly my favourite thing ever#this isnt me jabbing at the takes that stray from the book#just btw XD#i think thats a big reason why i love it so much is that theres a WEALTH of inspiration that can be taken from the jekyll and hyde trope#theres so much out there i love#that being said#ive been buzzing about jekyll n Hyde recently because of this game that blindsided me with a jekyll n hyde trope#its always fun seeing it out in the wild#as seldom as that is LMAO#if anyones curious though its called vampire therapist and its a character named dr drayne#very cute and very fun game 💕💕#jekyll and hyde#the strange case of dr jekyll and mr hyde#dr jekyll#mr Hyde#also talking about blindsided by gothic lit blorbos#saw an animated Jekyll and hyde movie at the DOLLARSTORE for 5 smackaroos#easiest 5bucks i ever spent#literally the funniest shiy ive ever seen highly recommend watching it pals#its also on youtube for free and its in that so bad its good category for me

A guy who just wake up from a coma -> what did i miss?
Pomefiore was the last plot i follow before real life made me forget about our silly boys. How bad has the plot become now for our gang? Also who is that Gojo looking guy?
anon, I am so sorry and I mean this in the best way, but I do think episode 5 is the absolute funniest place to have stopped following Twst because shit starts escalating SO fast after that. episode 6 literally starts with a secret government shadow agency breaking down our doors and kidnapping students. zero to a million instantly.
and like...that's not even the zaniest thing so far? Ortho's hacked into the collective human unconscious. there's time travel (sort of). "Crowley might be Malleus' long-lost father" is a serious theory. if you'd told me any of this back pre-episode 6, I would have asked for the link to this unbelievable but highly intriguing fanfic.
also, episode 7 gave us (and then immediately took away 😔) the best character in the whole story:
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers#there are better and very comprehensive summaries out there so i'm not gonna get into it with any seriousness#(genuinely a LOT has happened)#but let's recap very quickly#episodes 1-5: our friends' RA is a huge asshole! jack's sports idol is trying to cheat at the big game! who will win the talent show!#i sure hope no one turns into a monster and tries to kill us!#episode 6: a shadowy government organization has stolen our friends (and cat) to experiment on#idia throws himself into hell and then tries to destroy the world. we punch ortho so hard he grows a soul.#episode 7: malleus has an existential crisis and traps everyone in an eternal dreamworld#extended diasomnia backstory flashbacks reveal that silver is a cursed prince and lilia wanted to be the filling in a royal sandwich#somehow sebek is the most normal character and that's the real twist right there#every new chapter is its own wild fever dream and i'm so here for it#as for this gojo fellow#i had to google him because i am unfamiliar. but i believe you are referring to our dear friend scully (skully?) j graves#from that time we got sucked into a magic book (again) and then he got mad at us for being fake halloween fans#also he wouldn't stop kissing our hand. who says there's no smooches in twst.

Steve isn’t the first person that Will comes out to but he’s definitely top five and it’s completely by accident. So now, Jonathan’s talking to him like -
“Wait, are you threatening me?” Steve asks, tuning back into the conversation after spacing out five minutes ago. “Because of Will?”
“Um, yeah? Kinda.”
“Wow, I’m not like…I’m not that. I’m cool with gay people. You know I love-“ He realizes that Jonathan doesn’t know Robin is a lesbian and course corrects - “Spock.”
“Spock? From Star Trek??”
“Yeah, obviously. Big gay, that guy. He wears eyeshadow.”
“Because he’s an alien,” Jonathan says, completely off topic now. “Not because he’s gay.”
“Okay, well. He’s dating Kirk too. That’s kinda gay. It’s in the books.”
“What books?”
Steve rolls his eyes and ducks behind the counter at Family Video for his backpack. He pulls out a thin bundle of papers and shove them at Jonathan.
Jonathan looks at them like, “This is a magazine…I don’t think this is an actual publication.”
“Okay? Well, Kirk and Spock bone in there so, you know. I’m not going to make fun of your brother.”
Steve goes back to stocking shelves for a second and then says, “Mike though?”
“I know.”
#two birds/one stone: Trekkie Steve and Jonathan being baffled by his character development#Robin watched this whole conversation play out and feels warm because her bff loves her#and also Jonathan looks like he’s going to have an aneurysm cause by Steve’s mom fanfic zines#Robin tried to explain fanfic to Steve once and he was like: it comes in the mail so it’s real#Robin: the magazine is real but everything inside of it is made up#Steve: everything is made up Robin.#steve harrington#jonathan byers
