died and came back tired. died and came back exhausted. died and came back with manic energy. died and came back with malingering unease. died and came back twitchy. so many possibilities
#died and came back and refuses to talk about it#died and came back but don't know if it's permanent#died and came back with tragic knowledge of the future#died and came back with memories that aren't yours#died and came back with a implacable sense of doom#died and came back and now crows are following you

Finally got pushed into the Severance pit.
#Severance#Helly R#Mark S#I am still early on so *Please no spoilers*.#This show has been recommended to me since it first started airing and...well all my friends were right. It's absolutely my kind of show.#A psychological thriller that focuses on corporate horror to create some really unsettling and familiar dread within it's audiance?#Every episode feels like I am being held hostage. In a good way.#And so many mysteries are going on! *SO* many mysteries!#Helly R's tenacity to escape contrasted by her outie's determination to stay is so fascinating to me.#The question seems to be 'who are you without your memories' and I'm starting to realize that the answer is very complex.#My favourite is Irv B*) His old man swagger and frightened bird disposition make me want to study him.

Damian, texting : Grayson, help me, I was kidnapped leaving school and obviously I can't act without ruining my civilian cover.
Dick, texting him back : WHAT? WHERE ARE YOU?!
Damian: With a stranger in a Mercedes black car.
Dick: I'll call Jason. We'll find you, I promise.
Jason, gets a call : What's up, Dickhead?
Dick: Jason, I need you to come immediately, Damian was kidnapped and can't act without exposing himself so Nightwing and Red Hood must go rescue the little prince of Gotham.
Jason: What the fuck are you talking about? He's just right here with-
Jason: *angrily snorts *
Jason: I'm going to hang up, see you at home.
Jason, turning to co-pilot seat : I JUST DYED MY TUFT BLACK! IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL!
Damian, feignedly scared : WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DID YOU DO WITH JASON?!!

Danny Is An Alternate Version Of Ra's Al Ghul And Flash Already Called Dibs On Adopting Him
Danny In All His Sleep Deprived Slightly Scuffed Up From A Fight Glory Is On His Way To Clockworks Tower To Hopefully Get A Nap And Maybe Some Homework Done When A Natural Portal Opens Up In Front Of Him And Proceeds To Unceremoniously Drop Him In The DC Verse Just Outside Of Central City Before Promptly Closing Leaving A Tired Danny Behind In A Run Down Abandoned Parking Lot.
It's Times Like This When Danny Regrets Putting Off Learning How To Make His Own Portals, Cause Now He Is Very Much Stuck For The Foreseeable Future And He Has No Idea Where Or When He Is. Luckily For Him However Central City Isn't Too Far Away, Unlucky For Him However Is That Once In The City He Realizes This Isn't His Dimension. He's Pretty Sure He'd Remember Something Called The Justice League.
So What Do You Do When Supernatural Bullshit Fails You? You Fall Back On Your Mad Scientist Roots And You Make A Portal Gun. So That's Exactly What Danny Plans To Do.
Unfortunately Staying Alive And Building Questionably Safe Portal Technology Requires Money And Supplies, So He Ends Up Wandering From City To City Doing Odd Jobs/Fixing Up Busted Tech For Cash Or Unwanted Electronics For His "Operation: Get Home" Needs. This Obviously Ends In A Few Superhero Encounter Shenanigans.
Though He Always Ends Up Back Near Central City, Both On The Off Chance The Natural Portal Will Open Up Again And Because Out Of All The Superheroes That Apparently Exist In This Universe The Speedsters Are His Favorite (Red Robin Is Solidly His Second Favorite Ever Since The Gotham Vigilante Gave Him A Large Coffee Filled With Enough Caffeine To Kill A Man).
Unbeknownst To Danny However Is That Every Hero/Vigilante He Has Encountered Has Come To At Least One Of The Following Conclusions; 1. Run Away Meta Who Is In Desperate Need Of A Good Meal/Adoption Bait. 2. Possibly Red Robin/Tim Drake Clone 3. A Good Kid But Could Possibly Be A Future Rouge If Left Unsupervised. 4. Did Bats Get A New Kid And Why Is He Here?
All Flash Knows Is That He Saw The Kid First And Therefore Has Dibs. Suck It Bruce.
Fast-forward A Few Months And Danny Gets Hurt During A Rogue Attack While Trying To Help Some Civilians Get To Safety (Old Hero Habits Die Hard (Ha Die Hard) And All That Jazz) And He Nopes Out Once Everyone Is Safe And When The Paramedics Are Busy With Other People Unaware He Left A Blood Sample Behind.
One DNA Test Brought To You By Paranoid Bat Concerns Of A Possible Red Robin Clone Later And They Find Out That Dannys DNA Matches One Ra's Al Ghul.
They Now Think Danny Is An Escaped Ra's Al Ghul Clone.
Memes For The Vibes:

but i am sick of climbing / i am sick of crawling on hand and knees and scraping myself along the ground / i am sick of self-help skills and persistence and patience / i am sick of pushing myself and burning out and thrashing about hopelessly / i am sick of being a goldfish in a hot pan / i am sick of reinventing myself every season / i am sick of this feeling / i would claw this out of me if you gave me a sharp enough object / i am sick of feeling unsafe around sharp objects / i am sick of never finding an object sharp enough
i wish you knew the answer and could tell me and pour it down my throat until i gagged on it / i made my therapist cry when i said i had a lacking in me / i told her that a train could drive through the spaces i put into myself / the lacking is what does it, not the wanting, the lack, the dullness / barely-breathing with my teeth clacking in the cold water / it's the same fucking bridge it's the same dream and the same stupid kid / i wish sometimes i had drowned in that pool / i wish i had been different, not even that it was easier but just that i had enough strength to endure it / i wish it went away / i wish i had one good fucking reason
#here's something. if i never had to be myself again - no mental illness - i think i'd give away my writing#my memories#anything....#is that what you found when you saw me under your car? did my eyes flash in the light?#did you know what i was?#did you know what you were doing. being gentle to a creature that cannot understand kindness.#like a wave in a desert or a 4th dimension#you should have left me there. i think about it often.

Honestly this crappy AU has been eating away at me since it popped in my head yesterday. I am having a field day with this train of thought.
Botw Link wouldn't have to go it alone, but the trade off is he gets "help" from some of the most choatic possibly immortal creatures to ever grace the lands of hyrule.
Mr.Hero would basically be followed by skull kid, who is convinced that Linkie is the greatest thing they've seen in centuries, a traveling Midna would occasionally bump into him and try to offer advice until the kid chimes in with a oober destructive alternate plan that she is immediately on board with because it'd be way funnier. The only good advice he can get is from Fi's statistics, but he isn't strong enough to pull the master sword so he has to go out of his way to get those.
Like he would wake up to what he thinks is a chaotic nightmare, while not realizing that they are distracting him from the actual nightmare he could be living.
#link bro you could be alone with nothing but your lack of memories and thoughts of impending doom#or you could do what skull kid suggested#and go drink a glass of water in front of that dying lady in the desert who ONLY WANTS A SPECIFIC DRINK#LIKE GIRL YOUR DYING WAT YOU MEAN YOUR ALCHOHOLIC BUTT ONLY WANTS A HARD TO MAKE DRINK#the legend of zelda#loz#botw#botw au#link#midna#midna true form#fi#skull kid

Drawn from memory only. Zero references used. I'm scared to check accuracy.
#kingdom hearts#aqua#larxene#kairi#axel#so haha someone liked some art i did for kh this morning and i was like wow dang i should draw more kh soon#and then i was opening tumblr to post it and my most recent activity notice was someone reblogging kh art#so basically what im saying is shout out to kh gotta be one of my favorite acid trips#also i drew aqua and kairi and axel then asked someone for a suggestion#and she was like uhhh i forget if you fw with larxene or not but#and im like OH I DO I DO I LOVE HER and so larxene by request#and then i told her it feels like cheating the From Memory aspect when all your outfit is .. is a black trenchcoat#then i was like wait thats literally the majority of the kh originals so actually thats valid for me

The tac net crash chapter is one of my favorites so far~
Ah and. Guess what. I just discovered that including this post, I made 50 pieces of fanart for Mistakes on mistakes until.. I’m so sane and normal about this story can you tell👍

#maccadam#transformers#fic fanart#momu fanart#jazz#prowl#jazzprowl#considering the speed and the amount of fanart#….yeah I can see why tumblr thought I was a bot lmao#also#I mostly read during night and then drawing from memory during day so uhhhhh the accuracy is questionable haha#mainly I feel like half of the time I don’t know how tf Jazz looks. The guy switching between his looks so often jdjfjfj#IM. SO GLAD THEY RESOLVED THEIR DRAMA EHEHBJGJ#The scene in medbay was so damn cute#oh my goddddd#the scene of the tac net crash#muah#loved it~#you know the thing is - I'm a biiiig fan of mutual feelings and actions#the scene of the kiss was absolutely great but it was a bit one sided#Jazz cared about Prowl but Prowl was far more concerned about information safety and strategy and stuff#but this?? mmmm~ Them caring for each other#Prowl using his last moments of consciousness to ask Jazz if he is mad at him#Prowl actually deeply caring of what Jazz thinks about him now when he knows Prowl killed his friends#i don't know how to explain#kisses are great but this (points) this is my favorite five star meal right here#also there is something so funny about Prowl slowly discovering fow fucked up Jazz is and just accepting it#but being so scared when Jazz discover how fucked up he is. Only for Jazz to be like “boo I knew about your fuckedupness from the start”

I don't care how excited it might make some people, I don't like this remake
#no heart. no effort. no soul. it looks animated everytime cinematic scenes of Berk or the dragons shoe up what was the poiiint#httyd 2025#aweful set and costumes. barely any cool details. dry emotions. no man i hate it#httyd live action#httyd#how to train your dragon#the only good thing this is bringing that it's giving me a chance to wipe the memory of thw from my mind#lf btw. look at the fur detailson gobber's vest and also the lighting#in these screencaps#try and compare this to whatever the hell they're doing with the remake. is any of it present? no#it looks vooler and better in the animated medium#amd it would've looked good in live action if it wasn't a remake and had good artwork done with some heart to it#like. i can actually imagine a live action httyd looking amazing but not as a remake but as a book adaptation#with changed perspectives and story and cinematography#hey can't replicate the masterpiece#and you know what pisses me off even more?#They based Toothless on his THW model. not even the first movie's model#his movements are all so... wrong

I think a part of ART that is so underrated by the fandom sometimes is how much affection it shows for the people it loves. It's big and intimidating and mean sometimes and has no sense of proportionate retribution, but it's also very open about how much it loves its crew and Murderbot. It's not really just a hair-trigger angry ship, it's deeply protective of the people it houses in its hull.
And I wonder how much of that is informed by, or contributes to, the fact that it's a research transport that also goes directly into corporate territory and it and its crew protect and shuttle slaves and indentured servants and other disenfranchised people out.
And to do something like that, it's no wonder that it's so willing to take down anything that challenges it.
I mean. Imagine if your job was to protect your humans and you lived in a universe where everything is being slowly eaten by massively imperialistic mega-corporations who want you and everything you stand for wiped off the face of existence. You have to learn how to Fight the Hell Back.
#murderbot#tmbd#the murderbot diaries#murderbot diaries#perihelion#asshole research transport#art murderbot#this is an 11 pm post sorry i might make a more in depth version later with like. researched parts im posting from memory. at 11#like yes haha ART's an asshole funny yes BUT. when you're doing things like THAT and you have all the personality subtlety of a rhino#you HAVE to lean into the violence. if you get spotted you have to keep yourself from being killed. and sometimes that means#you have to bare your teeth first#guys i really like ART can you tell

This is part 1 of a continuation for my other post where LL Megatron gets trapped in the G1 universe, I was thinking about how someone would go insane in this cartoon world and thought "what if Megatron had someone else to accompany him" so, I gave Starscream an existential crisis
Edit: pt 2 here
#guys i cant continue this comic I'll get too attached to the “oh its g1 animation errors excuse”#“this has great potential to be hilarious” makes angst instead#starscream i love you but your shoulder spike thingies are annoying to draw#theres only two parts but i wanted to keep my streak of posting art daily#DO NOT BE FOOLED BY HIS CUTE FACE HES STILL EVIL hes just having alot of thoughts right now#sorry if my handwriting is hard to read at the end#i print when i can but i... unironicly write in cursive#transformers#megastar#megascream#megatron#starscream#megatron x starscream#transformers fanart#transformers g1#tf idw#transformers au#ok looking at this a day later i realize how bad the flow is#note to self draw just make comics on the same canvas in the future#i will say though Ive never made comics before its pretty good for character angle practice! I need to do more of these#also use a character ref sheet!!! I gotta look at refs if im gonna do this cause its kinda obvious most of my drawings are from memory#G1 x LL AU
