#THX REED

[xxthebubblewitchxx]

Artfight is finally over yay!! This year was so fun and I wanted to try out some stuff like making more interesting pieces and full illustrations with backgrounds or with diffrent elements as well as push myself to color and shade more finished drawings! I have to say I'm proud on how they came out! :D

But on another note I have many places to improve on! I can't stop ignoring it, I always draw the same face shape! I have to admit that drawing faces is the part I hate the most so I always go for what's more comfy but I really have no excuses I've been drawing the same face for years now hahaha And it became more obvious with all the thumbnails of the drawings side by side- But hey i'm here to get better little by little so i'll see what I can do to work on that! >:)

---------------------------------------

Cal A Bungah Bitches

My body is a temple and I must treat it with the utmost respect. 

Cal A Bungah Bitches

It’ll be vegan 

Idk about the other stuff though

Dr. JMK, Ph.D

I’ll consider it. 

THE Chip Bunker

Dr. JMK, Ph.D

Cal A Bungah Bitches has muted FUCKING

THE Chip Bunker

Cal A Bungah Bitches

Seriously whose idea was it to give him a phone

He was better off with the carrier pigeon

Dr. JMK, Ph.D

Birds should not be exploited for free labor. 

At least the phone isn’t conscious. 

Yet. 

THE Chip Bunker

scary thought

thx doctor

Dr. JMK, Ph.D

Man has flown too close to the sun with modern technology. 

It’s only a matter of time before AI and robots and drones begin to inherit our humanness. 

We will be nothing in a silicon world. 

Just withered elements of the earth. 

 Cal A Bungah Bitches

I kinda like this one too 

THE Chip Bunker

oh jesus

Cal A Bungah Bitches

I weep over what capitalism has done to the power of the mind. 

THE Chip Bunker

Cal A Bungah Bitches

Hey as long as the shoes match your belt, right chip? 

Wait that’s the rule right 

THE Chip Bunker

I have seen a couple of nashuri shippers who say they're worried because marvel is casting Sue Storm. Why? My guys, Sue Storm has her own genius idiot. His name is Reed Richards.

i know sue got reed in the bag 😏

im only worried cuz Marvel be doing some dumb sh*t in terms of romantic relationships. Take Nat and Banner: no build-up, no chemistry, nothing.

However, it also wouldn’t be consistent with Namor’s feelings towards the yt ppl given his history’s affected by colonization. aka the yt-ies took over his mother’s homeland. 😒😒 like why dafuq will he be infatuated with a married yt lady 🤨

but like i said, marvel sometimes makes dumb decisions so i cant avoid feeling paranoid ☹️

thx for da question 😊💙 luv ya

I have a prompt if ur interested! Connor & Gavin are out chasing a perp, but when Gavin goes to shoot the baddie, he accidentally shoots Connor instead👀 (cue Gavin Reed redemption)

... omigosh i love this somuch YESSS

ALSO cue the Enraged Hank Hours(tm)

esp. since i tend to headcanon Gavin as a crack shot, which makes it even worse bcos. he should have been better than that

so then Hank has even more leeway to get angerie =DDD

thx. for the excellent idea my good Certified Cute Human(tm) <3

[tacticalhimbo]

so!! i finished watching runs of phantom liberty... and vin's getting a new canon. this dlc and its new ending are canon for him.

i just think the storyline does a great job at showing what vin really wants, and what it takes for him to realize that.

dlc storyline spoilers under the cut, even if they're pretty out of context/explained horribly.

also if ya see this twice very sorry posted this on my rp blog too but i post abt vinny a lot here so y'all get the character development too ♡ i'm so fucking normal (lie)

when this happens is after? you talk to the vdb. so vin's already been up shit's creek by this point. there's the shit with ev. the shit with takemura. the shit with the cados. he's been tugged around.

and then? then his relic gets hacked! and he's told to get his ass to the most dangerous part of nc? alone? yeah. yeah. he's not happy. johnny isn't either, but at this point vin's at a low and honestly could see him following songbird hoping to die.

and then he gets everything thrown on him.

- hey i need your help saving the president.

- hey im the president i need your help getting out of here, the attack came from the inside and i dont trust anybody.

- hey youre now a federal intelligence agent and tour making contact with a sleeper agent bc my runner that contacted you went missing thx.

he's already there, fuck it. maybe some gonk-brain will kill him. but. but!

there is a part of him still kinda hopeful. maybe one more step and he gets the help he needs. one more contact. one more task. and it just. keeps. going.

he's pulled into the monotonous bullshit he tried so hard to escape from. being pulled around on all these fronts again, especially as it comes out songbird is the traitor; this has been in the works for what? months now? because she knows about militech's own version of soulkiller and she, being led on by meyers, was used as a bow and made a portal for the blackwall to conduct govt espionage.

but it just. keeps. getting. worse!

songbird leaves him for dead. reed is stonewalling him. alex is fucking dead. johnny's quieter than usual. he's all alone in fucking dogtown and the only person he feels REMOTE TRUST for is feeding him nothing. and it sucks! but he's still trying to believe that he'll get that out.

and there's so many good convos with the characters in this dlc about morality, mortality, and consequence.

and it ultimately ends with vin trusting reed and them breaking songbird outta maxtac custody, bc surprise the blackwall connection makes you go cyberpsycho. and she makes it to the derelict militech lab that u go into alone alone, bc johnny gets sliced and ur comms are fucked. and there's this whole sequence of almost dying, being hunted alien isolation style by a blackwall ai controlled spider mech, and then you find songbird and she BEGS YOU to kill her. BEGS. and vin just... cant.

it's ironic coming from him considering so many of his dumb decisions are an expression of his suicidality, but he helps. he continues to help!

and even after, he's treated like shit. reed keeps stonewalling him. president myers is a cunt who cordially reminds him of the oath he took and the nice, tight leash she has around his neck.

and then? when he's finally "rescued"? ||he doesnt even say goodbye to anyone. and that hurts the most. arasaka ending sucked, sure, but this? no rooftop talk with misty. no goodbye to vik. just a text explaining he'll be outta town for a bit. and then it ends up being TWO YEARS. HE'S IN A COMA FOR TWO YEARS. ALONE. IN LANGLEY.

and when he wakes up, reed continues. to. stonewall. him. keeps it vague. apologizes, sure, but even now he cannot bring himself to actually care. which is understandable when you look at his character but. vin is livid.

there was no closure. no guarantee he'd even wake up. he could have up and died and nobody would ever fucking know!

and then he gets back to nc and... oh.

oh things changed. things really changed:

- vik became a corpo doc, working for some zetatech corp. he says he didn't have a choice.

- misty is just gone. you run into her after getting jumped by street mercs, and she's on her way to poland.

- arasaka? fucking gone. takemura and hanako went into everything alone and *hanako just up and fucking died.* no explanation. dunno if yori killed her or what. but takemura is in hiding now bc they believe he killed hanako *and* saburo. then yori stepped down as ceo all together.

- didnt see the others' calls so idk what happens with panam, judy, and river, but it can't be much better for them.

and i just...

the whole idea of vin being forced into the background being both a relief and a terror to him is so... it's so good. the idea that he lost everything again, but he now has control over that.

it fucks him up, that's for sure. the dialog you have with reed? with vik? with misty? some real shit. he's on the verge of that suicidality again, but he lived. he can live. he has control over that now.

and it's for the first time in a long time, considering the fact he worked with arasaka counter-intel. he awaited death for so long, knowing it could come at any second, that there's a... bitterness. in losing that feeling. a confusion in the fact he can just. exist without consequence.

this is really the meat of it tho. the last bit. the fact that vin is both the exact same man he was and someone entirely new.

the fact that he changed and didn't. that he's messy and there is no truly happy ending for him, that he's just... human.

that in the end, he still fucked over johnny (except at least in the arasaka ending, he was kinda understanding to a point. here? he's just angry. dejected. vin's last words to him were that he couldn't forgive him for the shit he's done to his body) and still LOST the game of life.

he still lost. but he lost in the best way possible.

the legend of v is out there, but he doesn't have to be that. live up to it. he can just be... him. and i think that's all he really wants, in the end. to learn who he is and to be him. a chance to just exist without consequence. to not have to make choices on who gets harmed and why. to make choices of dire urgency. to just... breathe.

it just took so much for him to realize that, and it's going to weigh on him for god knows how long (if not his whole life, whatever remains of it).

Thoughts and Feelings #6

Those lies from Uncle Sam, man.

He was the funniest guy in all of Baltimore. Yous see he'd tell me 'jump', an Id say 'that's diabolical, what's it to ya?' I was born in a wheelchair; the Doc said it was a damn miracle it didn't split my mammy apart. But I's got two workin' hands, gimme an hour an ill make sure ya hickory dickory dock (clock) chimes on time.

Uptowns is where it's sweetest. The cold shoulder scatters, the toughest guys in all of Chicago ask me ''whens the day of the parade?''. I tell ya's I damn near widdled on the spot. I was able to assume the lotus position to ward em off. BUT I AIN'TS NO YELLOW BELLY. A wise guy comes up to me, ill give 'im the wheel, granted. This chairs is automatic, and systematic, why Im nearly finished making it hydromatic. That day I was jus perusing down the promenade, down to the speakeasy at top speeds of 20mph when they stopped me, and not so gracefully I braked my hot wheels! What a Columbus I made of myself that noon.

Hey, I forgot to tell ya my Christian name, the names Pip, but they call me Squeak, on account of Joey's famous Bubble n Squeak. Here's a picture a me that I keep in my wallet.

Thx 4 reeding, I saw some of Rocky 3 the other day, its apparently stuck to my subconscious cuz I didn't intend to write in whatever accent he has.

Austin to Return to Duties After New Hospital Stay

Introduction

In a reassuring update from the Pentagon, Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III is anticipated to return to his normal duties promptly after a brief hospitalization at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. The hospital admission, triggered by symptoms of an emergent bladder issue, has led to widespread attention and concern. However, recent statements from medical officials and the Pentagon have provided a positive outlook on Secretary Austin's health and his capability to continue leading the Department of Defense.  

Austin's Hospitalization and Treatment

Over the weekend, Secretary Austin was admitted to Walter Reed following symptoms that suggested a bladder issue. His security detail acted swiftly, ensuring he received immediate medical attention. Upon evaluation, Austin underwent "non-surgical procedures under general anesthesia" to address the condition. The medical team at Walter Reed, including trauma medical director Dr. John Maddox and Dr. Gregory Chesnut of the Center for Prostate Disease Research, has expressed optimism for a full recovery.   Quick Recovery and Return to Duties The medical team's statement emphasized, "A prolonged hospital stay is not anticipated." They expect Secretary Austin to be able to resume his responsibilities as early as tomorrow, highlighting the transient nature of his current health challenge. This news is particularly reassuring given Austin's recent surgery in December for prostate cancer, from which his prognosis remains excellent.   Temporary Transfer of Duties Following protocol, Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks temporarily assumed the duties of the secretary. The swift notification of the White House and Congress about Austin's medical status underscores the Pentagon's commitment to transparency and continuity of leadership.  

Upcoming Engagements and Adjustments

Despite the health scare, Secretary Austin's schedule remains ambitively international, with plans to participate in the Ukraine Defense Contact Group meeting virtually. This adaptation ensures that Austin remains engaged in critical defense discussions while prioritizing his health. Moreover, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Air Force Gen. CQ Brown, Jr., will also take part in the UDCG from Washington, demonstrating the seamless coordination within the defense leadership.   Support for Ukraine and NATO Commitments Celeste Wallander, the Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs, will represent Austin at the NATO Defense Ministers meeting in Brussels if necessary. This arrangement reflects the Department of Defense's unwavering support for Ukraine and its commitments to NATO, even as the Secretary recovers.  

Conclusion

Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III's anticipated swift return to duties is a testament to the resilience and dedication of the Department of Defense's leadership. Moreover, as the Pentagon and the nation await his recovery, the solid contingency plans in place ensure that the U.S. defense apparatus continues to operate effectively. This reflects the strength and preparedness of American military leadership.   Sources: THX News & US Department of Defense. Read the full article

so!! i finished watching runs of phantom liberty... and vin's getting a new canon. this dlc and its new ending are canon for him.

note: i also have to update some canon bios but... shh ♡ also ty ty i'm safe the tornado didn't hit near me. there will be typos here tho because i'm too tired and i'm on mobile.

i just think the storyline does a great job at showing what vin really wants, and what it takes for him to realize that.

dlc storyline spoilers under the cut, even if they're pretty out of context/explained horribly.

and naturally, vin's a little upset (he's a lot upset), but fuck if he doesn't need that tech. and it's a hell of a lot better than the prognosis anyone else has given him so far!

but it just. keeps. getting. worse!

songbird leaves him for dead. reed is stonewalling him. alex is fucking dead. johnny's quieter than usual. he's all alone in fucking dogtown and the only person he feels REMOTE TRUST for is feeding him nothing||. and it sucks! but he's still trying to believe that he'll get that out.

Hiya

Um for you art ask

Can i ask 37 please?

Thx

Oh this one I actually tried to draw it when I wrote it down, but back then I wasn't that confident on how I drew the boys so I ended up hating it and leaving it

I wrote it near the release date the episode 5, before the last episode was aired.

The idea was a gif, about Steven face, looking up (just a little, like looking at sky at the distance), and with the blue colors palette, and the sky of that one scene.

Then a distortion transition to Marc, with same pose, like superposition, looking at the sky as well, but the orange warm colors of the fields of reeds.

I hadn't clear if to draw their eyes crying in contrast with their expressions

Ask me anything
