#WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE MAKES KIND OF ANIMATICS THAT I LOVE THE MOST

[tapakah0]

do u know cass personally? or is this a tumblr friendship? cuz its the most wholesome thing ive seen in my life

I don't even know their real name ~ But if I will be told that I have an extra liver, I will know at the exact same second to whom give it.

[ruins-of-tragedy]

I just watched the bonus animatic RWBY ending. And it boggles my mind how much good their actions left behind. They just don't know it yet.

Nora may be taking on the weight of the world, but it is helping her come into her own. She is becoming the person she wants to be. Oscar and Ozpin are trying their best to fight the merger. Though the former isn't sure who he is, he hasn't allowed the confusion to take over his kind heart. Lie is moving forward with great empathy and extending it to all those around. Holding on and holding it for everyone. Winter can't shrug off the survivor guilt. Yet is being the best maiden she can be. Emerald is always there in the background. Lending a hand where they need it. Qrow has grown and is assisting Willow with her alcoholism. Misses them all terribly, but has hope now.

There's still the bad. Of course there is. Emotions are going haywire. People are suffering. The kids are working themselves to the ground. Tyrian and Mercury paid the jails a visit and broke some prisoners out. Winter has passive martyr ideation tendencies. Vale is no more. Oobleck isn't hyper now. Some folks defaced the memorial stone. The grief is debilitating.

Throughout it all though, they are still trying. Together. To build again and do more. Following into the footsteps of the people they lost. It just makes me wonder; how many folks in our own lives don't know they changed us for the better?

I have been seeing posts like these a lot. One of our life's greatest tragedies is, we will never truly know how much we are loved. What forever bothers me? It's a revocable slight.

Seldom do people return from a fall RWBY and Jaune experienced. Heck, Rubes herself almost didn't. All of this to say, tell the people you love how much you love them. It will be too late someday. And someday can be a lot closer than we realise.

We may only die once, but more often than not it's permanent. People have their own personal battles and demons to combat. We never know who might need the kind words we do think, but still keep locked inside our heads.

Forces like Salem are ever present in our world as well. Just waiting around the corner to strike. Lighting fires where they weren't before. Let's never forget what matters most.

We all have the potential to live anew with each passing second. For ourselves, and for others. That, I think, can be our saving grace. Cheers!

PS: Raven gets our heroes to their friends and Qrow. So, she must have been the figure from the cliffhanger the creators decided to cut. Does this mean Ruby already interrogated her over what happened with Summer?

Hey so sorry to bother you but… just saw you listen to Epic??? I know you’re a turtle nerd, as am I but… I NEED to know your favorite Epic song/favorite character right NOW PLEASE! You’re like one of the coolest people so to find out you also listen to Epic is…. Mmmmmmmm anyways I hope this isn’t weird or anything but PLEASE I NEED TO KNOW😭🙏🏻❤️

NOT WEIRD! LOVE THIS ASK! THANK YOU!

SERIOUSLY! I WOULD BE RANTING ABOUT EPIC 24/7 IF THIS WASN’T A TURTLES BLOG BELIEVE YOU ME

Alike to turtles, I have problematic views!! I look at things that 3/4 of the fandom shares a view in and go: That’s not what’s happening.

The people in my life have heard me ramble I cannot shut up:

I went to this event months ago and it did Trivia and a round was Greek Mythology and everyone in my group was like, “Neko, this is all on you. Don’t let us down” and I got 9/10 right. Go me ✨

Gonna see my bested friend soon! We never get to see each other so we’re making a day out of hanging out. We’re gonna watch the full saga. All of the two hours of it. I am collecting animatics. Silly goose thinks it’s an optional suggestion (it’s not <3)

(Don’t worry, I’m exploring outside interests too. It’s mutual 😜)

Asking me to pick a favorite song is like asking me to pick a favorite fanfiction child. All my children have gifts of their own to share and I love them all with everything that I have!!!

But if you’re asking what song I most commonly have played on repeat and/or belted on the top of my lungs when I’m alone…

I’m Not Sorry For Loving You tops everything else.

Based off this, I wanna say that Calypso is my favorite character. 🤔

I mean, I created a blog where our only purpose in life is to be safe in our horror and empathy for her situation and to acknowledge that she has so much nuance that the fandom doesn’t touch.

But I think if I’m being honest, it’s not her.

At the end of the day, my angsty heart is drawn to Athena.

DISCLAIMER: Controversal opinions ahead. Do not come yell at me if you do not agree. Tell me why I’m wrong, absolutely! But do it kindly and thoughtfully, and maybe we can have a conversation :D

I am passionate about this character. No aggression to the musical. Every song in the musical rocks. It’s merely my passion speaking.

Everything about her breaks my heart. She’s a goddess in a disfunctional family who doesn’t understand mortal ways.

Also, her dad is the most toxic dude alive.

I mean, there’s this one line that people portray in so many ways, but you watch how Zeus interacts with her and recall the fact that he literally didn’t want her to live when she was conceived- he is SUCH a bully and her respect only stems from him being ‘king of the gods’.

None of the gods step in during God Games. At no point does anyone go “dad you can’t threaten your daughter because she did exactly what you asked her to do”. Not even ARES.

He’s the one who says, mortified, “is she dead?” So he didn’t WANT that turn of events. He cares about her and her state of being.

She’s the only one willing to challenge Zeus and he literally says, “you won, I don’t care, I’m going to heavily punish you because I’m unhappy that you said a true statement I didn’t like”

I've no respect for bullies, those who impose their will I've seen plenty enough to truly understand this kind of filth

DO YOU SEE MY VISION?

Literally her entire life- no one’s been on her side! NO WONDER she doesn’t want to take Ody’s offer of friendship. Clearly no one has ever really given her trust or empathy that she can lean on.

She expects people to lack empathy. She doesn’t understand that he’s not that kind of person and her lessons won’t click.

Have you forgotten to turn off your heart? This is not you I see you changing from how I've designed you

Why would she trust a moral when she can’t trust the gods?

And she has such a temper which is so relatable.

They were in two different spectrums and that’s why they clashed.

She was running off of a mentor mindset. He was running off a friendship mindset. Neither was doing what the other needed for the relationship because they were not on the same page.

And then they hit the ditch in the road and everything cracked.

I mistook you for a general What a waste of effort spent

I'll remind you I saw you as a friend But now we're done

And Athena’s proclamation literally is a prediction for herself:

One day, you'll hear what I'm saying One day, you might understand One day, but not today

Time skip: the way that Athena talks to Telemachus says that she’s been stewing in regret because she KNOWS they were good friends and she didn’t want to admit it to herself. She understands why they clashed and now she doesn’t know what to do about it.

So this kid is like “I think you should help him even if he hates you. If he won’t accept your friendship then I’ll be here waiting.”

(*insert waiting, waiting, waiting mantra*)

AND THAT’S LITERALLY EXACTLY WHAT SHE NEEDED TO HEAR?

SHE LITERALLY JUST NEEDED TO KNOW SHE HAD ONE PERSON ON HER SIDE? ONE FRIEND WHO CARED ABOUT HER?

I’m a sucker for ‘doing everything for the people you care about but platonically’ and Athena is the PICTURE of ‘oh wait I would platonically die for my friend’ and like?? That’s beautiful??? 😭

My only qualm with EPIC is the way that the Ithaca Saga handled Athena because you cannot convince me that it did not do her dirty. I have read and scrolled and chewed on all the arguments.

That. Beautiful. Goddess. Went. Above. And. Beyond. To. Mend. Her. Mistake and he outright denied her friendship.

That was not a “oh yeah we can be friends later” very well.

That’s a voice cracking, heartbroken: “I took a thunderbolt for you and you don’t want me in your life” very well. LIKE.

Yes. Oddy went through a lot. No denying that.

But he called out for HER. After everything, he called out for HER HELP. Showed a belief in her. Counted on her to save him

AND SHE DID WHAT HE NEEDED. TOOK A THUNDERBOLT. BEGGED ON HER KNEES WHILE SUFFERING AND IN AGONY.

I can't help but wonder What this world could be If we all held each other with a bit more empathy I can't help but feel like I led you astray What if there's a world where we don't have to live this way?

{I messed up. I want to do better. Is that still possible?}

If that world exists It's far away from here It's one I'll have to miss For it's far beyond my years You might live forever So you can make it be But I've got one endeavor There's a girl I have to see

{No. You have thousands of years to make other friends. There’s no world where we can mend who we used to be. You do what you need to do. My only want is to be with my wife.}

LIKE if they were going to try, the song would SAY that they plan to try. Jorge is not afraid to strongly imply things or outright say them. Ody doesn’t WANT to try and be friends. All he wants is wife. Which would be valid if SHE DIDN’T TAKE A THUNDERBOLT FOR HIM

ONE THAT SCARRED HER EYE AND KNOCKED HER OUT FOR SEVERAL SONGS SO SHE COULDN’T BE THERE TO HELP

There was no reason, no obligation, nothing but her love and affection for him that drew her to take that punishment from Zeus.

There is no way, after everything, she’s asking him to be her warrior.

She’s literally saying she messed up. She wants to mend their relationship. She wants to do better for him.

He could have said, “I’m not a man who does empathy anymore but we can try” instead of “I have other plans, gonna have to miss this friendship train” because that is an awful diss. Straight painful.

This amazing song did her so dirty and I will never get over it.

Thank goodness for Telemachus. She’ll needs his optimism and joy and willing friendship after the sting from that bite.

So the EPIC: The Musical concept album is fully released and finished now. Ithaca Saga (the final saga) dropped on Christmas Day, and it's probably one of my favorites in the musical. Some of the most solid storytelling, and really consistently good music across the whole saga. I can't turn my writing brain off, though, and part of how I work on my own writing is dissecting what makes something work for me in media, and what doesn't work for me. So I figured I'd share instead of keeping it all bottled up. ;>

The Challenge: Beautiful, perfect, no notes. Anna Lea's vocals - incredible. "Though I never thought that these would be the lengths we'd go for love" hits so hard every time I hear it.

The only part that listeners seem to get confused on is "But I don't know how much longer I'll last since I saw that storm / And though it was so close to our kingdom, it was far from the norm / unless / Oh, could it be some kind of sign / that my world is all about to change" - many of the reactors I've seen spend a long while going "does she mean the storm from the Ocean Saga or the storm from 600 Strike? Does she think Odysseus is definitely dead or does she think he's maybe coming back soon?" - whereas I thought it was obvious that Penelope was talking about the 600 Strike storm, was hopeful that it was a sign that Odysseus was returning, and was buying him time to get back. Probably the right staging/animation/choreography would fix this confusion just fine.

Hold Them Down: Everything I hoped it would be and more (but that animatic by mircsy??? holy crap I did not expect that. incredible yet horrifying, as perhaps I should expect by now from mircsy). Appalling yet catchy villain song. Ayron Alexander's vocals are unfairly good. (I wasn't taken by surprise at the lyrics, I'd thoroughly spoiled myself with the demos.) Also that faltering cello at the beginning that seems to symbolize the failure to string the bow??? Brilliant. Jay's at his best when he's doing compositional/musical/instrumental storytelling, imho.

The brief, swift exposition of "don't you know the prince is not around / I heard he's on a diplomatic mission / and I heard today he comes back to town" works really well, I think, even if you don't know the Odyssey. Gives us a reference point in time, context, events. We don't have to linger on what he was doing, why, how long, etc; we don't have to follow the diplomatic mission; we just need to know he was gone and now he's coming back into town.

Lines that go unfairly hard: "break his pride, his trust, his faith, and his bones", "When the crown wonders where the prince is / Only the ocean and I will know", .....the entire sexual assault "hold them down" section but I'm not gonna quote it because holy crap it was also incredibly icky (but that's why it goes so hard, it was so effective at doing exactly that, while staying in the realm of allusions/imagery instead of explicitly stating it).

(I have been exercising such self-restraint at not engaging with people who are trying to use the Antinous depiction as fuel for Calypso discourse. So much self-restraint. I might have to rant about it on tumblr to avoid responding to people on other social media platforms. Engaging will not be productive and I need to continue to exercise this self restraint. aaa)

Odysseus was a wild ride, though probably the song most in need of revisions. So many callbacks that worked so well! The "O-DY-SSE-US" in the background mirroring PO LY PHE MUS? The lower register that I didn't realize Jay could even reach? Athena hints? Telemachus?? Scylla torches reference??? So good.

This song has some of the strongest and weakest lines in the whole saga. It could be easily solved by just scrapping the whole discussion of the weapons room door being unlocked. It's just confusing, everyone gets confused by it, it's unnecessary complication, I don't know why it needs to be emphasized so much. They find the weapons in the room where Odysseus hid them, no one comments on doors being locked or not because it's not important, Telemachus still shows up, fight ensues, song is now no longer 5 and a half minutes long, everything is improved.

Seriously. this line and its meter/scanning is just. bad. talky in a bad way. "I find it hard to believe that the sharpest of kings / Left his armory unlocked / So what?" ... Actually, you know what? They could even keep "Brothers, we've got company and he's made a grave mistake / Left the weapons room unlocked, and now they're ours to take" - like, I think that'll cover the whole "Telemachus unlocked the weapons room, not Odysseus" just fine. Mentioning it earlier, and mentioning Odysseus being sharp, just leads listeners to think it's a trap by Odysseus, and then because of that mental priming, it's really hard to pick up that the later line indicates that Telemachus left the door unlocked. (I didn't catch it until someone pointed it out, and then it seemed obvious afterwards.)

Strong lines: "I come back and find my palace desecrated, sacked like Troy", "In the heat of battle at the edge of the unknown", and ESPECIALLY "My mercy has long since drowned / It died to bring me home" like WHAT. what. that's so good. ("And as long as you're around / My family's fate is left unknown" is a little weaker, feels a little clunky, but I wouldn't know how to fix that one.)

I Can't Help But Wonder felt eerily like Dear Theodosia from Hamilton, though it was still very good in its own right. (Seriously though. Try singing "Dear Theodosia" while playing "I Can't Help But Wonder" - so many parallels and they overlap amusingly well.) Athena showing up was delightful. Loved the poignancy and bittersweetness. And was it just me, or did Athena's quickthought and piano sound almost... wounded? Limping, faltering? Heartbreaking. Again, Jorge's instrumental storytelling is so good.

Something about Odysseus's response to Athena bugs me. It's the delivery, maybe. I really like the approach of "Odysseus doesn't get to see a world where we don't have to live this way, he can't imagine it for himself, he's been through too much" and the long pause between Athena's verse and his response with the slow ticking. I looove that. I guess maybe I want the ache of it to be more emphasized on Odysseus's part. I think it really would just take a slight delivery difference to make it hit for me, which is a singing choice. Or an adjustment to that last pair of lines ("But I've got one endeavor / There's a girl I have to see") which just feels... not quite where it could be, I guess. (The A/B/A/B rhyme scheme with short lines sometimes feels amateurish and clunky to my ear, I think, especially if the phrasing feels a bit forced to make a rhyme.)

Could You Fall In Love With Me Again: Wonderful except for one clunky section, and I have a probably-controversial quibble with the end. Also, Gigi animatic in full color????? omg. So poetic to end with a Gigi animatic. I didn't recognize the style at first until Odysseus came on screen, because of the fully colored linework wtf. It was beautiful. And that swelling "Just A Man" instrumental reprise of specifically the section talking about the desire to go home?? aaaaa so good. I sing the lyrics every time even though it's an instrumental, I can't help myself: "I'm just a man / Who's trying to go home / Even after all the years away from what I've known / I'm just a man / Who's fighting for his life / Deep down I would trade the world to see my son and wife / I'm just a man".

The wedding bed / olive tree section... I was super excited when I heard the first line ("See that wedding bed"). I had thought for a bit there that we weren't going to get the olive tree reference, and I love that part of the original Odyssey. How outraged Odysseus is in the poem when Penelope asks him to move the bed. >D And he was just as outraged in the song! It was great - but the lyrics were... mm. It felt clunky. The line "How could you say this" could be cut entirely, the sentiment is shown just fine in the rest of the stanza and feels kind of forced/doesn't quite scan, he could just start with "I had built that wedding bed with my blood and sweat" - the rest of Odysseus' verse there is fine though.

Then Penelope's response of "Only my husband knew that / So I guess that makes him you" .... "so I guess"? really? ......it bothers me every time. EVERY TIME. It feels out of place, overly modern even for the modernization of EPIC, and it also weakens Penelope's (beautifully) impassioned response. Same vibe as "Dumbledore said calmly," you know? She's not guessing. She knows. "Only my husband knew that / Now I know that makes him you" maybe (I'm spitballing here, there's got to be something better. let Teagan at it, she's a stellar lyricist). Or, if the point is to prove to Odysseus that he's the same man, that he's not a monster / not an entirely different person than the man she fell in love with, then "Only my husband knew that / Don't you see that makes him you" could work to emphasize that point. But "I guess" does noooothing but undermine the tone.

This is probably just me (well, and a couple other people I listened to the musical with): I really. Really. Really feel like this song could have ended with "waiting, waiting... for you" + swell of Just A Man instrumental reprise. That felt like the end. It was a really good, solid end. I don't like the "how long has it been / 20 years / I love you" - we have reiterated that it's been 20 years so many times in this saga alone, they obviously love each other, that was shown beautifully in the entire "Would You Fall In Love With Me Again" song prior to this, they even said it - "I would fall in love with you over and over again" ... the afterword is extraneous and imho weakens the power of the ending. It feels like an afterthought. It feels tacked on and it feels inauthentically saccharine. Buuuuut in every reaction video I've seen, people seem to get extra emotional at it and seem to love it, so maybe I just have too little romance in me. ;)

...I actually do love this song, I think it's very strong, but that's why the above things stand out so much, because the rest of the song is so strong that they're jarring in contrast. Lines I think are incredible: "your smile torn", "left a trail of red on every island / as I traded friends like objects I could use", and of course "would you fall in love with me again, if you knew all I've done".

But overall, it was very satisfying, and I can't wait to see what the final version looks like after theater workshops and/or animation studio workshopping or... whatever form the final productions take.

...I should probably make multiple posts so I don't turn this into an even longer essay. Let's keep this one focused on Ithaca Saga and I'll post thoughts on the entire musical separately. (I might make one of these for each saga. We'll see how long the hyperfixation lasts.)

[lampyoil]

Your mlp infection au animatic looked so neat...found it while surching that tag and that music is so pretty and I'm still trying to figure out the implications lmao...are you planning on expanding upon this or no? Part of me hopes you do because I totally wanna see more story...and I got so many questions. Was cadence patient zero or the creator of the virus. I am so curious how this happened and what drove the begining of this virus...also poor Shining and flurry...wonder how their story will go.

I’m definitely planning to expand much more!! I’ve been sick lately so I’ve mostly just gotten writing done, but I’ll explain some lore here! (Also also, I’m planning to mostly update on TikTok so if you wanna see it sooner it’s most likely there!)

This is mainly just explaining how the infection/mist came to be!!

Being the Crystal Empire, it’s very common for newer crystals or gems to grow either in or around the area. Usually they spread positive emotions, which can be especially effective to crystal ponies! However, a new kind of crystal had been growing from the outer side of the empire and was able to spread into the surrounding town. It was somewhat small and very beautiful, having colors more similar to sunsets (very uncommon for the empire, as it’s usually very pale or blue colors) and was collected to make jewelry. The jewelry was sold very quickly due to the uniqueness of the color, and soon just about every crystal pony citizen had one. But the crystals were not only different from the rest in color, but spread active negativity. Like said before, crystal ponies are extremely sensitive to the power of a crystals properties, and with so much negativity throughout the empire, many become not only angry, but violent.

The only ponies to have not gotten the jewelry were the royal family and Sunburst. Cadance didn’t want her subjects to be in such a horrible state, especially not with so many fights breaking out. She tried to spread her love the best she could, but being unaware of the negativity the crystals provided and the fact that her empire had so many ponies, she was unable to cast a spell big enough on her own. She and Sunburst both tried and looked everywhere for a stronger spell, until finally finding one. Cadance stood at her castle balcony, and preformed a spell that could spread the feeling of whatever emotion the spellcaster was feeling across large areas, enough to cover the entire kingdom! But something went wrong.

Even for a powerful alicorn like herself, the spell was too much, too strong. Her horn felt like it would break apart, but at the same time it kept her in place. The mix of trying desperately to show love and being terrified mutated her emotions and spread what was more of manic obsessiveness rather than pure love. Not only did it spread to her citizens, but being the caster and therefore closest, it infected her right to her core practically the second she tried to cast the spell. She couldn’t move until the spell was over, and even then she was just.. staring down at her subjects and they yelled and cried for her “love”.

Shining armor, Flurry heart and Sunburst were still inside of Sunbursts home when Cadance casted her spell, as she said she needed to fix things herself. They were all safe due to crystal homes being very thick and solid, and the mist wasn’t able to slip through. However, the constant yelling from outside is distressing.

Cadance didn’t mean for this to happen.

Annyyway.. that’s basically the origin!! I might brush it up a bit, but I also have a lot of other things planned for this au (Flurry and Shining especially)!! It’s all going to be more connected with the art rather than me talking though ^_^

Also sorry if this is poorly worded, very tired and sick and such

Happy STS!

Do you have any songs that come to mind when you think of your OCs? If so, what are some of them and why?

Happy STS!! I think... Perhaps I do 😳

A small sample of my playlist sizes.

Here are some specific songs though!

✨

This is probably the most Amara song I have. Take me to war by The Crane Wives. A lot of TCW's songs is very Amara core and i decided they honestly make for a wonderful voiceclaim as well.... But this song is honestly just a theme for Amara.

https://open.spotify.com/track/2WwY90dZp0NuOTcOKewKLy

Princess Amara is known for just how much of a bloodhound she is. She has a tendancy of finding out incriminating evidence and following the trail to no end. This has gotten her in deep trouble before, where she couldn't defend herself from the wrong person. The Priest, Father Josef. He had contol of everyone in the castle by then, being an expert at manipulation through fear and mind control.

When shes just getting into her adult years Amara is asked to marry the king of Midonia to distract him and distribute insider knowledge for Anemoi. She ends up utterly charmed by Caleb, but puts her nation first still. It really messes up her sense of what love should mean to her and it doesn't help that Amara really just is bordering on aromantic.

Amara ends up coming home after the war and grows into kind of an angry person. She finds what's closest enough to love with Jeremias. They click well but she cant help but find herself more and more depressed as theres little she can do to protect the people around her.

Regarding Josef and Amara, this song is pretty good and makes me think about Amara confronting him with what she knows about the abuse he causes and how he's been killing kids. The walls by Rare Americans

This ones a very Crown Mavros and Jeremias song. Jeremias being the dog, and Mavros the bird. DogBird by Madds Buckley

https://open.spotify.com/track/2uWf9AsJoAqujfi85etve4

And this song, Housebroken by Hotelier, is both a Mavros and Jeremias song as well. You can probably tell they have a dog theme going on here.

https://open.spotify.com/track/58R1SG4RgVE5eHApvNvFae

And this one is incredibly Jeremias. Monsters by Slaughter Beach, Dog. Everything from living with his parents (well, just his dad) into his 20s, to the brother standing up for him.

https://open.spotify.com/track/2UkY7hFQCsiEh3JKIhxhQx

And this one, this ones very Jeremias. Catharsis by AlicebanD

https://open.spotify.com/track/0GELyRjqIrjkqA53BL9Tov

✨

Altar Wine by David Keenan works as a Xavier, William, Anna/Jodi and Cassius song. I plan on doing an animatic for each of them some day, using different versions of this song

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5HxIhczp6nxObSNXQ7QYjB

This ones a VERY Xavier song about William. Willy was his first love, and being gay lovers they had to remain hidden in Midonia.

[numberonetacostan]

I think I am recovering from burnout sort of and ended up yapping to some of my friends about an idea that came to me after watching the stumugi villain animatic from danganronpa. So like, I'm not sure if you know much about danganronpa but yk there is basically people on a killing game where they have to kill each other and if a dead body is found then there is a class trial to find the culprit, the one pulling of said killing game is always refered to as 'the mastermind' you know, the one that is pulling all the strings from behind the scenes. And even though I have had my thoughts about some ii characters being the mastermind, sadly some of those ideas are kind of shrouded in bad memories now, so it doesn't really alow me to properly talk about them as I did back then. But! I watched stumugi animatic today while I was in a weird plane of mind and it came to me what if microphone, was the mastermind? now I don't have a lot of basis or background about it, I just thought it was a neat idea. I mean think about it, out of everyone of the ii cast that gets into the killing game, microphone wouldn't be someone you would think of being the mastermind it wouldn't only caught the competitors still alive off guard, if played well it could perfectly caught whoever is following the story off guard too! I don't know who would make the acussation if taco is the protagonist of the story then she is certainly going to be hesitating in pointing the finger at mic, in my mind I think they made up due to the circumstances they found themselves in and somehow managed to rekindle their relationship and fall in love again, for then the final case beginning and even though she looks over the evidence over and over and over again- it comes to the same conclusion. Even though she doesn't want to admit it to anyone especially not herself, every single lead points to mic being the one pulling the strings. Mic is smiling as she slowly comes to the realization, a soft smile, as she tilts her head. Awaiting for her response and taco is in the most painful denial ever. She doesn't want to possibly believe that the women she has fallen in love with once more could be the responsible of such atrocious act- it just didn't made sense! why would someone like her of all people who has always stood up for what the right thing to do was- do something like this...? it had to be a set up, or a trap, it just doesn't align with everything she has come to learn from her it just doesn't make sense! she shuts her mouth, she stumbles, she hit a wall. She stops completely, and then somebody else speaks out and they point out what taco herself already knows, that none of this adds up, that every lead that they follow even though nobody present wants to believe, points to one single person. And microphone even though she should fight back these allegations be freaked out- shout back and try to prove her innocence- this was what she wanted wasn't it? to be found, to be seen. And so she smiles and claps and slowly pulls the curtain, and reveals herself with just a little push to everyone's dismay to be the mastermind. The class trial becomes erratic, chaotic, people are shouting confused and betrayed and sad and angry and hurt. But mic is unfazed by all of it she smiles and goes along and keeps up with the play, her facade falters for a second when she looks at taco's dejected and incredulous face. Quickly shoving her feelings deep into the depths of her mind as she awaits for either their or her demise.

I haven't fully thought her out or fleshed out fully her motivations but we know microphone more than anyone yearns to be seen, to be seen and be heard and be acknowledged I haven't thought over what could happen to her so bad that it throws everything she knew about herself off, her belief of ''the right thing to do'' all I know is that she probably was exhausted, tired, hurt. The entire killing game to me is also a very funny pretty drastic parallel to what taco was doing in truth or flare, something about ''an old friend tried to show us that she was drowning.'' I believe as unhinged and it all was something in her mind changed something in her mind snapped, something happened to her and she wants to pull the most amazing, crazy, painful show that is really nothing but a way to torture herself as well! my thought of how she would go through this pipeline until as we see her in what would be 'the final act' or the story is the pipeline flowey the flower from undertale did! having the power to do something big! and slowly, being corrupted by said power, maybe she would hesitate at first as she sees the bodies maybe she dissociates as she sees the first murder but slowly with time it gets easier it gets bearable slowly but surely she gets detached because hey that's what murder does to ya! perhaps she could try to justify herself or go through a similar line of thinking's to flowey 'I don't like this I'm just doing it because I have to know what happens' I am not sure what would trigger her to go to this path but perhaps something could change in her life, be granted with great power and even though she hesitates her mental health becoming so bad she just has this pure need to be seen even though she knows its not a good idea slowly she gets used to the blood to the death around her, the right thing to do? she has forgotten what 'the right thing to do' was a long LONG time ago. Even though she still to an extend cares about people for example soap pickle knife and taco, wanting to make sure that none of them would die and taking off whoever tried to kill them and either framing it as a suicide or blaming it on someone else as she keeps getting detached she begins seeing them less and less like people in a sense? she sees most of them as players in her big board of chess and/or slowly her perception of even her friends AND taco begins to get warped. It would probably make more sense if she was forced into that position if she was forced to take on such an horrible role somehow and slowly got into it, slowly accepted it, slowly let it corrupt her.

And we go to everyone's reaction! I think at the very LEAST knife and of course taco would be there to see, but ideally soap pickle are there as well! and their reaction to me is the messiest you'll ever see they don't want to believe microphone would be the one behind it but that's the truth isn't it? I think knife would react with anger STRONG anger that is mixed with just a very big sense of fear because he knows mic well I think he can also see through her own suffering and her own torture, pickle is more than angry pulling a taco and dissociating the fuck up because surprise surprise! other friend of his betrayed him, soap I think is incredibly sad she should be angry with her but she can't bring herself to at all she is grieving and hurt and doesn't understand why her best friend would do something as awful as this, and taco. Taco is feeling every single emotion at once she is going through the 5 stages of grief in less than a minute she has so many feelings and despite everything she has the desperate NEED to cling onto mic to plead to everything that this is all a nightmare that they can both wake up at the hotel and that she can come in and gently kiss her palms as she cries, but this is reality, and she is falling apart. the ask is getting too long but I hope you enjoy it loomy!

Hi Kiara!!^^ Welcome, and thank you for sending in an ask!! :] I'm glad to hear you're recovering from burnout!!!

I do know about danganronpa, but I appreciate the explanation nonetheless!

Mic is quite an interesting choice to be mastermind! What you're describing for her reminds me of darkfics!! What with her snapping with her need to be heard and noticed and such. It would be fascinating if this were due to some sort of MeLife/MNN data corruption. Taco being Taco would be the first to figure it out, but she'd be way in denial and more people would die because of it. She'd also 1000% blame herself for Mic snapping. But I can low-key see Taco being like "oh shit we're evil again?? Bet" and joining Mic since she's so important to her. But yeah that would be yet another worst day of Taco's life. And Mic staying so calm would be quite powerful since Mic is known for being loud and chaotic, yeah? But she's the only one calm, now.

Knife would be so, so pissed because he trusted and liked Mic. He's supposed to be protecting others, and here he is having been duped by someone he considered a close friend. Pickle would be in disbelief like he was in the s1 finale, yeah. Not again-y sort of way, I think. Soap would indeed be very sad but might actually try to pull Mic out of it like how Mic helped her pull herself together when they were getting rid of her cleaning supplies. Uh Taco would indeed be feeling every emotion and also I think she'd blame herself both in the sense of not noticing something was wrong/not being able to get Mic to open up to her as well as the less realistic sense of her villainy somehow rubbing off on Mic, and it being Taco's fault she'd started hurting people.

I did!!! <3 Thanks, Kiara!!! :)

[crepes-suzette-373]

Your animatic videos are always so cool! I love the one where the siblings try to break free of Germa but get blocked. Yet it was your more recent one, Saint Sommers using his devil fruit power on Sanji, that got me and my friends in our discord server buzzing. Even though we now know that's not how his powers work, it laid the foundation that the briars could still cause delicious angst hehe. We built on a scenario where he plants those thorns on Sanji, who doesn't realize something is amiss until Reiju simply brushing against him causes her to be wounded massively, even piercing through her exoskeleton. Sanji trying to catch her from falling only hurts her worse, and he can only cry out in alarm as she collapses, scared of doing anymore damage. His cries draw the attention of the rest of his family, and immediately he hears familiar stoic, controlled steps approaching fast behind him. Ichiji is immediately upon the scene, demanding to know what happened. He yanks Sanji's shoulder to grab his attention and a warning dies on the blonde's tongue. A long pause sets in, scared anticipation of what should come and yet... Ichiji is perfectly fine. Then his other quadruplets soon follow, confused as to why he would attack Reiju, peering at the mess in perplexed detached apathy. He tries, and fails, to explain the situation, and is met with bemused disbelief. Has the failure finally snapped and gone crazy? They're reaching out to touch him, to test his nonsensical tall tale, and nothing is happening. The briars do not stir. They ask if he's doing this for attention, and their jeering turns into static noise in Sanji's ears. All he can register is something in him finally extinguishing. The small, stubborn, delusional ember that hoped that under all the abuse, they cared, even in their own inhuman, malicious way. And it takes thorns that weaponized your own love against you to finally make him accept the ugly truth... That love didn't exist, it never did. Food for horrible angsty thoughts :)c

Thank you for your message, that means a lot 😭😭😭 I'm so happy that you like my animation/animatics 💕💕💕

The escape animation is still WIP, so what you saw is not the end, but my concept is so vague everything is a mess right now, haha. I do hope to finish it eventually.

Also, that's an entire fic right there OMG!! Thank you!! Can I offer my own angst idea?

Imagine that all 4 siblings ends up unable to touch Sanji because of Sommers's power. They don't know what's going on, until Sommers then comments "The love of siblings is amazing too" or something to that effect. Of course Sanji gets angry, and denies it, but Sommers thinks he's just putting an act.

So he explains to them how his powers work, and says that you can pretend to hate someone all you want, but there's no way of hiding what's in your heart from his power.

And of course all of them are shocked by this. Reiju is one thing, but how could the other 3 possibly have love? The fruit's power cannot be denied, but it doesn't make any sense. Did something change after WCI? Or was it like this the whole time?

Sanji is obviously the most conflicted by it. This goes against his understanding of love. Also of course this makes his brothers' situation complicated too. On the one hand, maybe the mods activating won't erase his ability to love, but on the other if because of the mods you're still capable of hurting people (even your loved ones), then what does "love" even mean?

[Sorry to self advertise, but I have this theory here that they still have ability to love. Also the line Sommers said, "hurting each other is love", actually kind of works well with my theory. Sommers's idea of love is super messed up, but Germa is a messed up place too. I think they would all have a weird idea of what "love" means, modifications aside.]

[greensagephase]

Hi- I've really, and I mean really enjoyed Nonviolent Communication so far (no srsly, it's the one fanfic I've been following with absolute interest) and I wanna be nice and provide an animation bc I said so :D

I would love if you gave me some preferences for GIFs (not animatics, my autism is going to implode /j) from the scenes you loved most :] P.S. I love your style of writing, and I will patiently wait for part 15, bc good food is cooked with love and care

AHHH YOU’RE THE ARTIST THAT CREATED THE “MI AMOR... ME DUELE LA BARRIGA” GIF - STOP !!! THAT WAS SO CUTE !!!! Thank you for creating those gifs!!! I swear to you I've found myself saying that to myself multiple times since I came across your post!!🤣

And omg, thank you for reading Nonviolent Communication!!! I'm so happy that you've enjoyed it so far!! 🥺 And the fact you want to make an animation??? YOU'RE TOO SWEET, THANK YOU!!! ❤️

Omg, where do I begin? I love so many of the scenes I’m written so far, but let me compile some of my top favorite!

I’ll go with the most recent scene from part 14 where both reader and Miguel say “Always” to each other while sitting side by side on the floor, eating pan dulce and cafe de olla.

The first time they slept on the living room floor after Miguel had a nightmare holding hands which I’m totally normal about (no, I’m not !!!!) in part 13.

When Miguel finally tells reader she’s his best friend on the rooftop (so normal about this and Miguel’s progress 😭) also in part 13.

When Miguel wiped reader’s tears away with his scarf on New Year’s Eve because she was thinking about the previous years when she was alone after her Peter’s death and before joining the Spider Society from the Blanca Navidad one-shot.

When they babysat Mayday and she made both reader and Miguel’s action figures kiss right in front of them and they were both embarrassed and shy about it in part 11.

I have to mention the Día de los Muertos chapter (part 6)! That entire chapter always makes me so happy to think about because it’s the first time Miguel opens up to reader by showing her his ofrenda for his deceased loved ones and then sharing pan dulce and Mexican candy with her!

When reader gently cleans Miguel’s face while he’s recovering from his encounter with the Green Goblin and also when she feeds him the cafeteria food and he hates the steamed carrot (thinking about it still makes me laugh), honestly chapter 9 is just filled with a lot of scenes I love because we have reader looking after Miguel and him actually accepting it because he feels comfortable with her and no one else 🥹

The scene in part 12 when Miguel gives reader a pinky hug/squeeze without some kind of excuse to play it off. It's the first time he offers the gesture directly because he wants reader to know he's working on physical touch and that he's honored she wants to hug him.

This list wouldn’t be complete without giving the first chapter a mention, it’s what started it all! The scene in which Miguel checks reader’s forehead for a sign of fever and realizes it’s not that, but rather her period and then makes socks with rice to help with her cramps while she’s passed out asleep! 🥺

Honestly, there are more but these are just a few! I wish I could mention a scene from part 15 but that would be a spoiler 😭

Thank you SO MUCH for the love and support for NC!! I'm so honored you wish to do an animation for my fic, seriously, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! ❤️I hope you're doing wonderful and that you have a lovely weekend!! 🥰💞 P.S. I appreciate your kind words and patience so, so much!!! Part 15 should be posted this weekend, if everything goes well! :)

❤️Send this to at least 3 people to spread some OC appreciation!❤️

eeekkfjf ty for the question !! here's some infos about eidel :3

so, originally, she was my self insert bc my brain works like that when i like something, and this was how she looked like (me but cooler!!)

eventually i realised i wanted her to be her own character, and basically made her pinkie pie from my little pony (other concepts below)

(final design)

i like my self inserts bubbly and annoying, thank you very much. she's a kind spirit, always tries to keep a smile on her face! she's curious, and chatty when she gets the chance

she is still a work in progress, and her story is very simple

she was born in big family and had to take care of her little siblings for a lot of time, lived in a very small village, complex relationship with her mother, she felt trapped, only thing that brought her joy was singing for her siblings, she would tell them of great stories and adventures-

until she realises she wanted more, she wants to bring happiness to other people with her music, and ran away :" never heard of her family again, she feels guilty af and wants to reach back to them but is too scared- she reached baldur's gate when she was a teen and from that moment on she works in a tavern, singing and dancing! living doing what she loves, what she thought would make her happy

i guess you could describe her as bard who lost her spark, she now has spent most her life inside that tavern, singing songs of great adventures but doesn't know her own self. she ran away and for what? what does she really want, who is she? the comfort of the tavern is nice, but is there more? what is the missing puzzle piece for her happiness? so she started adventuring to find out! -...and got kidnapped by the mindflayers' ship the same day

she doesn't get social cues most times and is slow to process a lot of stuff, she's a bit of a dummy yk, very trusting and wants to see the good in the world- mostly lived a sheltered life, surrounded by music and fantasy stories.

she lets astarion drink mainly from her wrist, neck feels too close and she's not used to having someone so near her,

astarion calls her "ei" or "candy", other nicknames always include pink things and soft things.

when i was drawing her this was playing in loop in the background, and i eventually want to make an animatic of her with the song.

other possible spellings of her name were eydel/aydel/edel and it means "gentle one, noble and kind person"

the taverner who took her in is a kind man who agreed to let her live her until she entertained his clients, kinda like a father figure but neither of them ever addressed it

my favourite thing about her is the fact she's honestly just a girl with big dreams, she wants to know more of the world, about herself, but is also oh so scared and alone, doesn't really have a family to count on anymore, or friends to reach out to, but still manages to keep being all smiley and lovely! she wants to do what she loves, and wants to find a place that feels right for her

[tblsomedoodles]

Now that we're entering into 2024, I'm asking some artists and writers that I follow:

1) What is the one piece you're most proud of from this past year?

2) What are some pieces that you would have liked more people to see? If you can include links, I'd love to go check them out!

3) What were your top three favorite pieces (art, comics, fics, etc) that someone else has made this past year?

(As always, no pressure to respond! Feel free to just ignore, or let me know if you'd rather I not send you these kinds of asks in the future.)

Oh let's see!

1 ) Fic wise, i'm really proud of "Proud Family Tradition". I was actually able to finish it this year, which i'm super excited about and, in general, i just love how it turned out vibe wise.

Art wise, that's a hard one. Um...I'm going to go with the "Non-cannon Leo meets Clara comic" b/c i love how it turned out. The looser render style mixed with the limited dialogue and not-overly-distinct panels look so cool together. and it helped me start experimenting with other brushes by doing so.

2 ) Probably anything with Jenny (from Family Web). For whatever reason she doesn't tend to get very many notes at all, especially compared to anything else really.

For specific things, ummm...probably My Good Omens doodle from september. I redid a panel from an old animatic of mine and I love how the whole thing turned out, but it didn't do well at all. And Maybe my Forever Alone animatic. Again, love how it turned out, but it's for an au that i haven't really done much with beyond this and a donnieverse stop so it didn't get seen as much as i would have liked. It's based on the first thing i wrote for rise (though i haven't quite posted it yet. I've got to get on that) and i learned a lot making that video. Heck, i even got a decent looking fightscene in there lol.

3 ) Only 3?? ok, i'm gonna try lol.

ok, so no particular order (b/c i'm literally just going through my bookmarks on ao3 lol)

"things that ought to Crawl" by mudlarkspur (WisteriaParfait) (AO3). A very good "Draxum finds a little feral donnie and accidentally becomes a parent along the way". Very cute. Love it. Been meaning to do some fanart but haven't gotten the chance (or courage) to do so yet.

"Minor Interference" by bambiraptorx (AO3). Basically The turtles accept Draxum's offer to train them so they can prank him while doing so and everyone starts catching familiar feelings along the way. Super cute. definitely recommend if you want some chaotic shenanigans and occasional fluff : )

oh last one...um....ummm....ummmmmmmmm........Oh!

"Rotten Reflections" by Nicoforlife (AO3). Rise Leo and Donnie end up in 12tmnt, but it's dark/suspenseful, and they're both feral and injured. Idk, i just love this fic in general. I've read it 3+ times over the last year (i don't really reread that much that quickly, so that's significant) and will be rereading again so to catch up. (i'm behind on all my reading atm. it's sad) I just vibe with it. Again, another fic i need to do fanart for but haven't yet.

(this was so hard! There's just so many i love. picking only 3 was very difficult)

Thank you!!

[nebulous-rain]

Hello! My name is Moriah and I am a junior in high school. I was wondering if I might be able to get your insight on a few questions I have?

I am in my final years of high school and am starting to think about college but I have no idea what I want to pursue. I know I love art, so for a long time I have been thinking about getting an art major or going to an art school.

I’m reaching out because I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR ART and I think you are a very talented artist! I have been in love with your art for so long and I am curious and wondering how you are able to fit drawing into your life?

1.) If you are going to college for art, or went to college for art, what is it like? Do you think going to school for art or having an art major is worth it?

2.) how can I fit art into my everyday life? I’m sure you have work and other things to do in your life so how do you balance it out? (I just want to know how you can draw as much as you do!)

3.) do you do art as a hobby or a career? If it is a hobby how to you balance art, work/school, and home life? If it is a career or part-time career is it an alright source of income?

Thank you so much! And sorry if these questions might seem personal. I just want to know how other artist manage to draw and create their work and still have an adult life. Thanks again, and thank you for being a huge inspiration in my life to create the art I love! Your art means so much to me!❤️❤️ ❤️

i am going to CRY this is the sweetest message ever. i'm happy you found your niche and i'm even happier that i could help inspire that!!! i'm not sure if i'm gonna be able to answer all your questions, but i'll try to squeeze in some possibilities where i fall short:

1) growing up i definitely figured i was going to end up in art school because that's what everyone told me i should go into. but as i got older in high school i was kind of panicking cuz i really didn't want to turn my hobby into a job, and i figured out that i wanted to go into education!

but that's just me- my wife is actually going to college for graphic design sometime soon because she loves what she does. if it's something you really enjoy, and that you think you can monetize while still enjoying it, then it's definitely worth it! money is important but you need to put you and your happiness first.

2) to be honest, i haven't had the time or energy to do much art lately (if you look at my post dates you can see how spread out they've been the past year)- but this entirely depends on how you manage your time and your workload. i'm horrific at time management! so that's my problem. BUT, i think sneaking in drawing time in little ways helps a lot, as i tend to sketch small panels of a potential comic or animatic on notebooks and papers while i'm listening to lectures. i've even posted ms paint doodles i've drawn during class

i always have plans for what i'd like to draw once i have the time. it's kind of motivating, but also frustrating, and it's hard to efficiently empty my brain of ideas while still keeping up with everything else. this might be something you'll have to wiggle around once you get settled into a routine each semester!

3) i really wanted art to stay as a hobby for me. the idea of drawing and creating art every day for things i wasn't inspired to do made me really nervous, because what i really wanted was to make fanart and draw my little guys all day lol

if you take anything away from this, i think the most important thing is that if you want to keep art in your life, you will. if you desire having time to make art just for yourself, you'll find time to work that into your life, one way or another- but in order to do that you absolutely need to have a positive mindset about what you're going into, and if you can't find that positivity, maybe it isn't for you

thank you for asking!!! i'm not sure if this'll be any help, but i appreciate the questions <:')

INTRODUCTION !!!

Hello and welcome to me account! : )

I'm a traditional and digital artist and I go by Phoenix on here!

I mostly draw fanart of my interests, though that doesn't mean I post regularly AT ALL-

My personality type is INTP apparently.

Fun fact i guess: I'm a goth! : D Well, it's more than a fun fact, but I had no other idea how to mention that lol.

My favourite color is red. Also I mix British and American English cuz this isn't my first language : P

I often take breaks from posting due to life so yea

I usually draw characters from media I'm hyperfixated on at the moment.

I am a minor, so keep that in mind when interacting with me.

Hobbies:

My hobbies are drawing (duh lol), sewing, photography, making DIY stuff, writing and making comics, and, of course, listening to music. I have a feeling I need to add that lmao. besides my native language and English, I'm also learing Latin, Spanish, and I know some German.

My interests:

My interests are (this list will definitely expand in the future):

BatIM (OG fan here), Minecraft, Five Nights at Freddy's, The Owl House, Spooky Month, Camp Here and There, Doki Doki Literature Club, ENA, Dont hug me I'm scared, The Amazing Digital Circus, Mouthwashing, Your Turn to Die, vampires, bats, snakes, the Backrooms, analog horror, and mythology (Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Mesopotamian, etc).

My favourite shows are currently The Owl House; Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared; and Spooky Month. My favourite video game of all time has always been Minecraft, but Bendy and the Ink Machine isn't far behind either. I'm a cat person, if anyone wants to know! I've always loved learining about big cats as well.

My music taste:

I listen to a bunch of music genres, but mostly rock, gothic rock, punk rock, dark wave, post-punk, emotional hardcore, experimental, gothic metal, and other types of metal as well.

I listen to Will Wood/Will Wood and the Tapeworms (which I'm very normal about, definitely...), She Wants Revange, MSI, Queen, Metallica, Tally Hall, Ghost and Pals, Mother Mother, Lemon Demon, Marina, MCR, and then also the most random songs that I like from whatever artist/band/genre.

When it comes to goth bands, I mostly listen to Bauhaus, 45 Grave, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Scary Bitches, Screaming Dead, The Kentucky Vampires, and many more! Those are some of my favourites though : D

I like:

My friends : D

Doing my hobbies

Crowded places

My kins:

I have other socials as well, feel free to follow me there as well: Instagram (i post there frequently), YouTube (for my animatics/animations), NewGrounds (mostly just for whatever im hyperfixated on), TikTok, Twitter, Cara (i use it like a portofolio website). I also have another blog specifically for my OCs: @/phoenixs-oc-dumpster. I cannot tag it for some reason.

Interact if:

You are an artist, animator, writer, or whatever other type of creative!

You are a furry, therian, otherkin of any kind. You're all welcome on here.

You have the same interests as me!

Do NOT interact with me:

NSFW, proshippers, pedos, zoophiles, homophobes & transphobes, racists, sexists, ableists, people who discriminate based on other people's religion

AI 'artists' and all who support it. You guys aren't welcome here!

Nazis/fascists

I see a lot of people who say that DNI lists are useless because you can not force people on the internet to not interact with your account and content. While I do understand this point of view, and acknowledge that I can not make anyone not interact with me, I do not necessarily agree with calling them useless.

I personally use them to let people know what kind of behaviour I support or do not support, or what I do/do not want to see, so I will still have a DNI list.

That would be all!

Once again, I am a minor, so please keep that in mind when interacting with me and my content. If you wish to be moots with me feel free to ask, as long as you respect my boundaries you should be good to go!

Do not repost my art to your profile at all, please! Please use tone tags when interacting with me, as I struggle with reading tone through text messages.
