We all know the semi-canonical ‘all the Robins know to hide/duck inside of Batman’s cape, even as adults’ thing.
We also know that Danny ‘is LITERALLY a ghost’ Fenton sucks at remembering his own intangibility while ALSO forgetting to look ahead of him.
All I’m saying is, Danny Fenton (or Phantom, if you’d really like) would absolutely SLAM into Batman on accident while running on roof tops and Bruce ‘Brooding Instinct’ Wayne doesn’t even think twice about letting the kid hide and scanning around for danger before there’s a record scratch of ‘wait who tf is this?’ kicks in.
#dp x dc#dpxdc#dc x dp#dcxdp#danny phantom crossover#listen I’m just SAYING#my initial thought is Fenton bc dark hair and how most of the robins have had dark hair#Danny isn’t even necessarily running from danger. he just got into parkour and forgot how to stop his momentum#I mean you CAN have him running from something. give this an ACTUAL plot#but honestly I just think it’d be a fun little setup#Danny peaks out and. in panic. goes#hi we’re the council of the dead. we’ve been trying to contact you and yours about your extended warranty#*extended life warranty or what have you#Danny hasn’t even gotten death vibes from anyone yet so now he has to wing it#yeah hi… uh.

Two Peas in a Pod: part 7/?
I'm so sorry for the delay. I struggled...
_________________________________________
"Jazz?" Blaster calls just loud enough for his mer to hear him. Now that the initial meeting was over, he wanted to take advantage of the break.
While understanding that the human was calling him over, Jazz was a bit hesitant that moving might start up the whole confrontation again. He glanced over to the other orca still floating a little ways away, •၊||၊၊၊ had his eyes closed and it looked like he was focused on dealing with the repercussions of his actions. His expression was twisted lightly in a restrained grimace with his right arm holding his side.
Slowly Jazz pushed himself further away, before turning over and swimming to the pier.
"Are you okay?" Blaster asked as he knelt at the edge.
With an uneasy look, he shamefully admitted, "it could have gone better…"
The chief vet speaks up before Blaster can, but not to Jazz, but into the radio. "Has anyone seen signs of reopening or blood?"
The Vet Chief wanted to fully isolate them from you, to keep them in a transfer-crate, at least until the injuries had a low risk of reopening.
Blaster shoots them an offended side-eye, as Jazz is literally right here. However, he pushed it aside, half listening to the radio chatter – all good from the sounds of it – and turned to what was more important. "Did he hurt ya?"
They'll take him away.
"I'm fine," he whispered, looking down as he placed a hand on his chest. It still stung, as the first hit was made with intent – he had gotten mad when it happened, did it show on my face, did they see it – and the rest, warning shots. "Just a bruise… it was more dizzying trying to keep away from him than anything."
–if the team reports you showing signs of aggression, they'll… remove him.
He hums in thought, eyes drifting momentarily as •၊||၊၊၊ disappeared from the surface. Blaster was a little nervous about that as he looked back at Jazz. "Do you think that you'll be okay, the two of you, I mean. Do you need us to separate–"
They'll take him away.
"No." Jazz insisted quickly, fighting to keep his voice low – behave – and shaking his head. "We should be fine now."
Blaster knew there was more going on, seeing as Jazz was soft spoken and avoiding eye contact; an old habit of hiding himself when speaking to staff, but it would have to be a talk for later. When Jazz felt safe enough to open up. So instead, Blaster smiled and said, "Alright. But me and a few others will be keeping an eye on you both throughout the day. Just to make sure you're both comfortable as you can be. It might be a bit rocky for the first few days, but that's okay, we were expecting that."
Jazz didn't respond, his attention had been captured by the other mer at the bottom of the pool, beneath him. He had been somewhat keeping an eye on him with his sonar, watching •၊||၊၊၊ slowly explore the tank.
Though, Blaster was just barely able to spot the other orca from the surface, and honestly wouldn't have noticed if not for Jazz. Pressing the call button on his radio, Blaster looked to the staff, "we've passed the first hurdle, everyone. We'll move onto doing rotation monitoring. Fred and Josh, you'll remain for the first shift. Everyone else, business as usual till I get a schedule in order."
"I've adjusted the medications and sedatives." The chief vet told Blaster, though didn't even look at him, as they were currently preoccupied sending messages on their phone. Not even a second later, Blaster's own was going off in his pocket.
"I'll look over your recommendations after." He sneered at them, though the vet had already turned to leave.
Then while folks celebrated the success and steadily wondered off to their main duties, Blaster's second brought up the mers breakfast from the kitchen. They set Jazz's down next to him, but held on to the other while they eyed the water with extreme caution.
"Ah, ya, no." Blaster spoke up before they even began to wind up, holding his hands out for the food. "Give it here, we are not chucking anything at him."
They snapped to him with wide, frightened eyes. Like Blaster hadn't been here to see the speeds that the wild mer had gone after Jazz. "You cannot be serious– you're going to attempt to pole feed him? Now–here? When they have the space to jump!?"
"No." He said with rising irritation towards their attitude and their poor handling of the situation. "I'm going to treat him the same as Jazz."
His second now looked flabbergasted, glancing between Jazz, him, out over the pool, and then back at him. "But–!"
Blaster pointed at both Jazz and up at the pair watching on the viewing deck. He wasn't stupid, he wasn't being reckless, he had been taking everything into account. And honestly, if he wasn't so mad about how the wild mer had been treated – and was just about to be treated – during meals, he'd probably be shaking in anxiety right about now. With a heavy sigh, he then carefully pulled the bucket from their hands to set it with the other, "look… I'm not trying to force you to do something you don't feel comfortable with. You're welcome to leave, I'll handle the meals and hopefully by the week's end, everyone will be feeling comfortable when it's time for food."
They took one last nervous glance at Jazz, before whispering – pointless, he could hear it clearly – "I don't think you can – or should rely on him to protect you… especially with how–"
"You're right," Blaster said deliberately louder than a normal speaking volume, "I am responsible for my own choices and actions. Thank you, for your concern. We'll talk in more detail later."
Thankfully taking the hint, they left.
Then the area was silent for a moment, save for the sounds of dawn songbirds being overruled by the sound of the scavenging birds of the morning. Starting to beg or fight for bits of food across the aquarium yard.
"They're right, you know." Jazz said weakly, still not looking at Blaster.
There might be other staff up on the deck that oversaw his pool, but one of the perks to being outside was that voices didn't carry as far unless one was intentionally loud. So they might as well have been the only two here.
It was just enough for words to come tumbling out, like he could talk freely once more. "I messed up, it wasn't his fault, he wants to be peaceful – I'm pretty sure, and I just… I think I ended up challenging him?"
"Jazz, listen, they misunderstood." He leaned over and placed a hand on his shoulder. "I'm not expecting you to come to my rescue, or put yourself between me and him, or anything like that. I know very well that I may be putting myself in a potentially dangerous situation, and I'm ready to face whatever the outcome might be. But what I meant was, that with you here – just like this, with us together. You are showing him with your actions that you don’t see me as a threat. That by willing to be around me and allowing me to touch you, you’re showing trust. Jazz, buddy, you’re a far greater help than those goons posing up there." The last bit was meant to cause him to laugh, or at least smirk.
But when Jazz still seemed like he didn't believe him, Blaster made a small gesture for Jazz to look. In turning his head to see •၊||၊၊၊, the mer was at the far end with only his head above the water and had a serious gaze fixed on Jazz.
"It might not seem like it, even with what had just happened, but he's relying on you." He waved at the wild mer and smiled, before reaching for a bucket and held it up in offering. But •၊||၊၊၊ simply scowled further.
"I don't think Mr. prowl-around-you-like-you're-breakfast relies on anyone." Jazz grumbles in dismay.
Blaster chuckled and set the bucket back down, "well maybe Prowl, is waiting for you to invite him over for breakfast. He seems to hold some expectations of you."
"Ya, he sure– wait, Prowl?" Jazz whipped his head back towards Blaster, finally looking at him again.
"If it fits, it fits." He shrugged with an amused smile, "though, out of anyone here, it should be you that chooses a nickname for him for us to use. I don't want to keep addressing him namelessly or calling him 'the wild' one, and I don't want folks to think that us calling him 'buddy' is his name." Then he laughed as he glanced back out to the sour mer still watching them closely, "I mean, come on, does he look like a Buddy?"
Jazz tried to stifle his laughter, "n-no."
Good, good, Blaster was relieved to hear it. Jazz was starting to relax back into his usual self. Coming back up from the depths to the surface to breathe. "So, what will it be?"
Jazz's smile had slowly begun to return and so did his hopeful enthusiasm, "I think Prowl is good."
"I'll send out a notice to everyone." And be sure to tear down all those horrible sticky-note suggestions. "But I am going to still try and learn to say his name properly," Blaster then clapped the orca's shoulder before stretching, "so I hope you're ready to have the worst student ever."
"You're going to learn Mer," Jazz asked in surprise.
"Heh, I'm shit at learning languages, but I'd be happy if you want to share more of your world with me." He then brought them back to the next part of their day. "But first, breakfast. Want to ask Prowl to join us?"
"I'll try." He said, before turning around. Though gave a slight pause and adjusted his stance so his side was facing Prowl. When he saw a slight shift in his expression, one that eased some tension in his brow, Jazz gave himself a mental pat on the back. Already a marked improvement.
{You hungry, Prowler?} Jazz asked. It was sort of funny having a word he understood that could connect to the mer's name. He wasn't sure of the meaning of •၊||၊၊၊ yet, or if it had one. But prowling was something he did, so it still felt like Jazz had gained another tiny piece of who they were.
{Yes.} He answered, rising enough that his shoulders could be clearly seen, side facing Jazz for a beat, before he slowly began to swim over. Caution or taking it easy due to discomfort, his moments caused only the smallest and softest of ripples. Like a silent hunter.
Yet, it made Jazz’s smile shift a bit higher. Prowl is prowling.
But for Blaster, his instincts were starting to claw up his spine, alerting him of a predator. He was forcing himself to relax and keep up his friendly smile by the time Prowl came within five feet of the pier.
Prowl eyed him up and down as he came to a stop, then gently turned after a moment.
"Oh, right!" Jazz abruptly speaking up in slight alarm cause Blaster to flinch – which in turn caused a moment of internal panic, because sudden movements are always a bad idea – but Jazz quickly reached up over the pier and grabbed the human by the legs – which caused Prowl to flinch, and oh-boy, was Blaster having flashbacks of close calls – twisting him so he sat with his shoulder turned towards Prowl. "Pretty sure that facing toward him is like telling him you want to challenge them."
"R-really," Blaster asked, both trying to distract from his thundering heart and focus on the new information.
"I think so? He kept telling me to stop doing it, before I realized what he was talking about, so it has to be some sort of an aggressive sign." They both looked back to Prowl, who seemed a little tense, but otherwise calm. {You okay, Prowler?}
{Yes.} His voice firm and serious, but did not look at Jazz when he answered.
"… Guess we're ready." We’re good, but he must still be uncomfortable with what happened.
Blaster handed Jazz his bucket first, hoping it would make the next easier. But then Blaster paused, seeing a distant look in his mer's eyes. "Hey, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Jazz fiddled with the bucket in his hands, but Blaster was still holding onto the handle. Not that taking it would be difficult, but it didn't feel like it was worth the effort.
"Jazz…" he pressed softly.
And Jazz retreated, "I… I don't feel hungry."
At least he was being honest about it.
Blaster had hoped that taking some time to talk would have helped to improve Jazz's current mental state. And it had a little. But his guilt over the misunderstanding with Prowl and the bad history with the chief vet were likely weighing too heavily on him. And as much as Blaster wanted to take the time and work through everything with Jazz, he couldn't right now, or rather Jazz would be unwilling.
Because Prowl was present. Even with a language barrier, Blaster didn't expect Jazz to feel comfortable having a personal conversation with him so close. But if Jazz didn't eat, then it was likely that Prowl wouldn't either. The trust was thin as it was, and hesitating too long – and not being able to explain why – would only make rebuilding trust harder. So, offering to use the holding pool and close the gate wasn't something they could do at the moment. And he hated it.
Blaster had to do something now to help restore Jazz's confidence and stop the spiralling of whatever thoughts were holding him back.
Good thing he was prepared for Jazz possibly becoming stressed.
"Hang on." Blaster said, his smile impish as he pulled the bucket back to set on the pier. Though, not wanting to risk Prowl backing off from him standing, he flopped back reaching for his bag strap, barely snagging it with the tips of his fingers. But he managed and pulled himself back up with it settling in his lap. "I've brought a little somethin."
Jazz didn't seem interested but waited none the less. Watching as Blaster pull out a huge plastic food-container – ... okay, he was slightly curious now and a little annoyed, because if he was going to tease him–
But then Blaster shook it with the biggest grin, and as the contents clunked around softly, Jazz's whole face lit up. Because what Blaster had just offered was the equivalent of a chocolate bar. There weren't many things that Blaster brought for him in a container, but there was only one that made that sound. "Moose jerky!?"
"Shh! Not so loud." He glanced up at the other staff, like he was doing something that would get him in trouble. But it wasn't a secret that Blaster made these treats for Jazz. And while it still pissed off the chief vet, there was nothing they could do about it.
It had caused a site wide outrage the first time he had done it. But orcas ate moose – the orca mers more so than the animals – even if it was mostly if there just happened to be one in front of them rather than an active hunting choice. But there was enough history, and with Blaster's dietary knowledge, he had won that battle.
He just chose to mix it up a little, rather than bring in raw meat. Not so different than some sun-dried fish really. And Blaster personally prepared it to make sure it was safe. Seasoning was just sea salt, simple, but tasty.
Jazz was now buzzing with eager energy. "Can I share with Prowl?"
"You’d better," Blaster laughed as he opened it and handed Jazz two strips that were almost the size of dinner plates. He could have tried to use it to mend the trust between him and the wild mer. But Blaster knew it would help Jazz foster his relationship with Prowl and that was far more important.
The whole time Prowl had been watching them and their exchange with intense focus, trying to figure out what was going on. So, when Jazz turned to him with a huge smile and held out what looked to be a piece of thin wood, he was wary.
{It's good!} Jazz wanted to say it was amazing, but unfortunately 'good', 'okay', 'safe' was all he currently had to work with.
After Prowl finally gave in and moved in close enough to take the offering, Jazz laid out on the surface. Careful not to get his food wet as he happily began to bite and tear small strips off. Taking delight in the satisfying sensation of the treat ripping and savouring the flavour as he chewed the tough meat.
Seeing how much Jazz was enjoying himself, Prowl took a tentative bite and immediately understood why. The look of surprise on his face had the other two laughing.
{Good, yes?}
{Yes.} Prowl then followed Jazz's lead and relaxed on the surface, enjoying the first piece of decent food since he arrived.
Blaster chuckled at the sight of the two of them and set aside the container to dig out his own personal stash to nibble on. "I've got more for you two sea otters, but only after you finish your breakfast."
Smoothing things over by sharing snacks always opened opportunities for bonding. Good ol' comfort food saving the day.
_________________________________________
Idk, this one felt very clunky to me, but I must move on -lays on the floor in defeat-
I'm now trying to put together a timeline of the all interactions that you share or like on your blog. Like a countdown clock to the flood/jailbreak, hitting all the angsty and fluffy notes, I want to make sure I can include everything. Q~Q
You and so many others have been showering me in praise and encouragement I want to live up to it. ♡(╥︣﹏᷅╥᷅)♡ I love you all, thank you so much!!
Going forward there is going to more Jazz and Prowl, without Blaster, I promise. Please forgive me and my long setups, my brain struggles with keeping things short, everything I write is a 200K+ slow burn. -cries-

OH HELL YEAH GIVE THOSE GUYS A MOOSE THEY DESERVE IT KDDKSHFV

Blaster over there is having battles on all fronts possible alsjfnfjnf
Also I'm happy they can have proper food at least sometimes~ Although I can't help but think that like. Jazz is happy because this poor moose is kind of a rare treat. Nice occasion gift you know. And then Prowl also loves the moose but in more "I was eating nothing but raw potatoes for a while and now there's a properly seasoned and cooked meal again" way. You know. Cause mers have all kinds of different foods in their cities and stuff~ While humans just go "here's your fish".

I feel like there’s this untapped potential with the TF One setup of seemingly all the miners being future Autobots outside of D-16, and so him having relationships/close connections with said future Autobots that in other continuities he never would have had
Like just to give an easy example, Jazz could have been a mutual friend of both Orion and D-16, whereas in other continuities the two would be complete strangers
Alright it doesn’t sound as exciting when I say it like that, probably because I’m explaining it in a not so interesting way, but there’s potential to be had here, you get what I’m saying?
#honestly thinking about the possibilities now has me a little annoyed that D-16’s only known friend was Orion#like yeah it works with the movie and gave us a great form of dpax and megop (I mean it basically created dpax)#but now the possibility’s out there and maybe you could make it more out there#because D-16’s one friend being Orion aka future Optimus has already been done and is a bit typical#I’m probably only complaining about the situation because I want more#there needed to be a jumping off point for this idea in the first place#but yes I need more exploration of the cogless miner concept and who could have potentially been friends pre war#also also if I could have cogless Decepticons squeezed in there I would like that too#I don’t know I find the setup TFO provides so fascinating#I can only hope future series can reuse the idea but given the movie’s financial failure I don’t know if that’ll happen#transformers#transformers one#d 16#megatron#cogless miners#autobots

ok see the thing. that thing about sasamiya/hirakagi. harusono knows her tropes. she's a fujoshi and a writer and she knows her way around bl/yaoi. so she takes these tropes and kicks them in the nuts for her own joy and amusement. and that's the fun of the ride
#people (modern fandom) LOOOOOVES positing sasamiya as like#The Good Pure Starter Manga For Baby Queers Who Are NOT Fujin#(which colours their perception of hirakagi but thats a whole other thing)#when it's not. it's not a starter manga.#its very much not for baby queers who think fujos are demonspawn out to destroy the respectability of Good (Cis)Gay Men#sasamiya is a comedy. a gag manga almost. where she kubrick stares at her fellow fujin thru the fourth wall#and she does it with the skill of someone who LOVES bl. who LOVES being a fujoshi. who LOVES these tropes and setups and cliches#“bad boys who aren't really bad boys” is almost a tagline to introduce sasaki#(and hirano. this isnt about him rn)#it's all very tongue in cheek and really fucking funny and that's like.#that's the fun of it. being a fujin is 80% of the FUN of reading sasaki to miyano#to elevate it to Not Like Other BL status is to do it a disservice at the most basic level#and a lot of the fandom's weirdness (/neg) stems from that. and i think i reserve the right to say it.#anywya. good talk.#ssmy

enemies to lovers / but you'll never own my heart
@luzon-dove happy birthday, Quinn!! As a present, I decided to draw a piece fanart of your "blood in the walls of the yagami house" AU fic series, since I found it very well-written and full of super interesting ideas and concepts. I hope you like it!
#i (ai)#death note#light yagami#l lawliet#fanart#lawlight#own art#I actually really wanted to write a comment to it but as of the time I'm scheduling this post I still haven't been able to get around to it#but like. GOD. it's good?? like at first when I heard about this AU I wasn't very interested & didn't really get the point#(for me personally I mean. bc I was like 'okay I don't get the idea of lawlight as brothers')#but after that I saw your posts more and also read other fics from you. and your writing your other fics are awesome#plus we also talked more and became friends; you're very nice and your takes are really good#so eventually I checked the series out and WOW. holy shit???? I almost regret not reading it sooner because jesus christ it answered my#initial question & way more. like RIGHT I get it now. it's actually so perfect as a setup all of it. I was greatly impressed#and all characters and relationships are so compelling and well-written and everything. aside from lawlight I especially LOVE your misa#and yagamane. and just. holy shit one of the things that compelled me the most was the family setup of the yagamis#L the bastard son and disgrace of the family... Light. his property. who doesn't want to be. perfect child. could've been a perfect family.#and yet. so he tries to kill L. over and over again. because he could've been perfect could've been normal could've been clean could've--#... if not for L's existence. GOD. and the mind games!! it's so compelling and excellent like idk how to put it#my initial disinterest was caused by 'idk how lawlight would be half-brothers like how would it even work' but as I read I was like. MAN#there's no more perfect answer to that than this like literally HOW did you manage to make this basically 'DN but the conflict is family-#-drama and incest' and make it WORK exactly well. thematically. in terms of plot. for characters and relationships. and everything#absolutely incredible. so anyway yeah I made this!!#incest cw#<- just in case anyone wants to filter it out#alrighty I guess I did write a comment here! though I was also hoping to like comment on details and specific lines

you should totally drop your procreate brush settings.... it looks so nice ;;;
Oh boy, I’m about to blow your mind rn/j
I use the basic brushes

No motion filter, no stabilizer, we rawdog drawing like it’s on paper/hj
Speaking of paper tho

This is my screen protector! Also a BIG reason why it’s easier for me to draw digitally because of how FRICKEN awesome it feels to draw on it! Paperlike is kinda balls, sorry y’all :( - P.S. I only got it yesterday to replace my old one.
Also I lied, I do modify the 6B pencil brush(2) a bit! But it depends on the situation (I’ve only turned the pressure size down because I didn’t need my lines to have weight for a bit) Also the Maximum Size is huuuuuuge because it’s a painting brush!

But yeahh, rn it’s kinda just the 6b pencil brush, Inka, soft brush, and that one medium hard brush thing I made by just going to Apple Pencil on a medium hard airbrush and upping the size to max <- This use to be my main brush a long time ago but now I just use it for erasing.
Also also also, I use a drawing glove for smooth, long, continuous lines!

(I think it’s this one, I don’t exactly remember :,3)
This might not really matter too much but I also changed theee uhhhh, the thing

YEAH! That think, Pressure and Smoothing in Preferences :D

I think by turning the motion filtering expression all the way up it gets rid of that stupid auto stabilizer procreate has??? Idk, I’m not really sure how it works, also I’m completely lost on the App pressure sensitivity, I watched a video on youtube on how to adjust it twice but I still can’t figure it out for sheeit. I kinda got something I liked, but that took experimentating- which didn’t take long! And even tho it’s confusing I didn’t change it too much to, again, find something that works for me.
Remember, it’s not the brushes that make you a good artist, it’s how you use them! Digital art is difficult as hell as is if you’re working on the glass surface itself, so accommodate it to you (if you can’t, no shame if that’s what you got to work with) also ARTISTS WHO RAWDOG THEIR ART ON A PURE GLASS SCREEN SCARE ME/j/silly/lh(👀 Moonie) @paper-starz
Moonie, Moonie tell people what you use to draw, you’re literally going to knock their socks off
(They’re really humble! I have “fancy” stuff to help me draw but their digital art is still, in a lot of ways, still better than mine! And that’s credited to their creativity and knowledge of art, but I won’t speak for him, she can tell you all abt it themselves!)
#Did I mention I take a lot of inspo from them?#Seeing how other people make their art helps to figure out how to make your own#Yeah that’s basic but it’s true!#Actually a lot of stuff in this post is basic :^#Still worth talking about tho!#GL ON YOUR ART ENDEAVORS ANON!!!!!#mail#I know you just asked for brush settings but seibsbefsebusbeitbst I wanted to give you the whole setup#SORRY!!!#Also if you need stabilizer that’s cool too!#I think I change that when I need to if there’s something that’s really hard to draw but needs to be smooth (like clothes!)#kanefiesbiuehy any#sorry for the art ramble!#AND IGNORE THAT SNEAK PEAK I SHOULD HAVE CROPPED OUT *WHEEZE*

I feel like if a barely to non- functional inn in a fake town that was probably purposefully designed to as frustrating as possible that gale Layton and Luke nothing but the bare walls could still provide two separate rooms for them, that being in the attic but still.... Than Angela could have booked something better than one room with two twin beds for Layton and the gang.
#like i can imagine the place is overbooked but when you basically own the place come on#it seems like a very awkward setup#when Flora asked if she could stay in the same hotel room as tjw guys she said they could get a privacy curtain at least#but nah in Dromedary 3 people sleep in 2 bers right next to each other

do people like. actually enjoy reading fics with caricaturised antagonists. and this isnt even just abt jiang cheng ive seen it done with jgy, wen ruohan, jgs, even lan xichen isn't immune to it. im talking like, spewing the most senseless stuff that barely even makes logical sense to them in the context of the fic, let alone in canon. it's so?? weird to read?? u can just like, have a regular antagonist you know. they don't have to have outlandishly evil speeches or monologues or plans. they can just like, be a dick.
#eve speaks#does this make sense#idk#i dnfed a fic that i enjoyed about 60% of right at the end bc of this#like the caricaturisation of one of the characters was just.. weird? and out of place?#the setup wasn't even that outlandishly evil its just like in the last chapter or two they decided that#the characters involved all took the worst bad faith interpretation of the situation THAT EVERYONE CONSENTED TO#THE FULL SITUATION EVEN. THEY ALL BARGAINED AND CONSENTED TO. BASICALLY THE WHOLE SITUATION.#and then made one of them outlandishly dickish about it /for no reason/#im not going to say what fic im not putting it on blast#again i also enjoyed a lot of it#except the strange emphasis on. well. talisman use emulating modern technology. that one always bothers me ngl but i can look past it#also it kinda lost me at other stuff i think it wanted to be three different stories and lost cohesion#like i dont CARE if you want to make one of the characters cartoonishly bad#but at least make it make sense?????#surely that's not too hard??

ok i'm still gonna be in-and-out of tumblr for a while longer... BUT!!!!
though 2 mutuals losing their s.elfship blogs is more coincidence than pattern, it was in such short succession that it's made me very concerned. i really, REALLY hope t.umblr gets to y'all asap and give you your blogs back!!!
so! if if anyone's looking to manually back up their blog and has the space on their harddrive for it, i can't recommend using tumblr-utils (the cebtenzzre fork specifically) enough, just in case. it takes an afternoon to download everything you need and get it running, but once you do, it's just a matter of periodically copy-pasting your backup settings into the command line to get the backup running in the background.
(if you want help or tips or even the settings i use, i'm happy to oblige -- there are some little things that still needed to be added to a new release eventually, for example, but you can edit one of the files -VERY- quickly yourself if you know what to add!! if you want to do it yourself, go look through the listed issues, and you might find some hotfixes people have created themselves.)
#i updated to the latest version last week and omfg.... so good and so fast....#i've been using an older version for like a year ish?? i think?? and for my purposes any weirdness has now been ironed out!!#think of it like installing h.omebrew: takes some setup but once you're done you're basically Set.#📌 [ my posts. ]#💭 [ my thoughts. ]

If an airbnb charges over a hundred bucks a night, idc where it is, whether it's a deal or what, they should at LEAST give u some goddamn coffee u can brew
Anyway I'm in Pittsburgh seeing my partner off for the first show of their tour. Said show was under a bridge which we were all a bit ??? thinking it was gonna be like this underpass and a handful of ppl but nope was a turnout of 60-80 (not pictured, I fuckin hate taking pics of ppl I don't know tbfh)and not that it matters but the bridge was Very Large
Partner's the one sitting down, playing w their tourmates Smitten For Trash on either side. It was a very cool setting with this huge bridge above us and the city lit up behind. and I managed to capture exactly Zero percent of the beauty but wanted to share anyway:/


I'm not putting this link to promote their music bc they do fine at promoting themselvrs and dont need my fucking TINY handful of notes, but if anyone cares to hear what they sound like, their new split album is here
#ive already said this but their music is like. the opposite of what i listen to#very 'this was recorded w a diy setup' acoustic and vocals as opposed to my uh. techo n shit#is always a blast to hear them live tho. they all have a v good stage presence which is a thing i neither possess nor..#..particularly comprehend#is basically magic to me lmfao#as isolated as i am 99% of the time. im quite lucky to have such cool friends ngl

#i may or may not have gotten the smallest push to do a thing 👀#except at that time i was 2 weeks out of surgery and lol No.#however now as i clean up those notes and docs#i am thinking how nice it'd be to start asking around to see if anyone else wants to help#except#Except☝️#i have only finished 90% of the setup#and internally i am like 'oh no this is a mess i should tidy it up first'#i literally have all email communications already drafted all info docs 97% done the schedule worked out and even several gfx done#all of which i had finished... p much 3 weeks ago#except there are like 2 things i havent done and im like ''well i cant ask around yet nothing is ready''#brain u are so dumb#.......i will make an actual post on this but basically: multi fandom postcard exchange for thai dramas#will need some extra mods to help keep things smooth tho 🥺#will make an actual post on this but like this if u wanna be tagged when i do?#*sorry not like- reply so i dont spam anyone just generally interested 😂#or just DM idk

idk why some ppl think otherwise but its like. normal to not be 100% comfortable with everything in an adult game that doesnt make you less "worthy" or w/e of being there its not like some edgy prove that you can handle reading about xyz fringe kink competition. however you do have to be respectful in both directions. if thats what you want to read, fine but everyone doesn't have to and everyones preferences and their comfort zones are very different. can it be annoying reading the same takes over and over? sure but if its something that like. a majority of normal ass people would be uncomfortable with then it makes sense! the main thing is getting used to saying this is not for me, lets put it down for now and maybe we can come back when theres something i enjoy.
#cliffnotes/.txt#like yes we are playing an adult game but it would be nice for some more specific content warnings#people look for those for a reason#if there arent any no one is really sure whats going to happen#like i still play whb bc i like a lot of the characters and wanna see where the story is going#that doesnt mean that i have to be comfortable the whole time though#no one does! im not a fan of the general setup for either last years angel cards or the torture cards rn#but thats alright its not for me#the point of the game is theres such a wide range of stuff to appeal to different people. everyone will not like the same thing#thats like. the basics.#if it comes to the point where anyones getting on ur nerves either u need to just log off or mute or block its so simple#i think the real challenge to be in a space for an adult game is just having understanding

me rn because all of the tik tok bllk fans hate nagi

#okay i am a little biased because i love him so much but also#people who think he won’t have a comeback lack reading comprehension i fear#he is like. literally a main character LMAOAO also this is the most basic setup for a character arc i have ever seen#it does not take huge amounts of critical thinking to realize that#ALSO OMG WHEN PEOPLE SAY HE’S A MANIPULATIVE HYPOCRITE…please he’s not some kind of evil mastermind he’s just not the most emotionally aware#free nagi from the haters 2024 😫✊🏻 even if he ends up flopping fr i will defend him always#nagi haters dni#nagi seishiro#bllk#m’s thoughts
