can’t talk about it

[ID: Black and white comic of Vash and Wolfwood from Trigun Maximum. The comic starts with the sounds "thud, thud, click". Vash, mid-action of peeling an apple, turns to the sound, noticing who it was that entered, and says, "Oh, Wolfwood, you're back." He resumes back to his apple in the next panel as he speaks, "Where'd you go? You snuck out of bed quickly this morning..." Wolfwood's hand then enters the panel, hovering over Vash's cheek and Vash looks up as Wolfwood asks, "Can I?" Vash responds, "Not going to talk about it?" while using a hand to gently hold Wolfwood's hovering hand and presses a kiss to his inner palm.

Vash then gets up fully, setting down the knife down on the table and the apple onto a plate, He leans into Wolfwood as Wolfwood explains, "Had to meet someone. Nothing interesting to talk about." Vash kisses Wolfwood's left cheek and a hand moves to cup his other cheek while muttering, "You're being vague." Wolfwood says neutrally, "If yer really that curious, keep askin'. We  can talk about that instead of doing this." Vash leans back and responds, "Let's talk after, since... You look so tired."

The panel pans to a close up of Wolfwood's downcast eyes, bags heavy underneath his eyes. He doesn't allow Vash to sit in that moment for long though, then saying, "Yer not helping, Spikey. Being all slow with it... I could fall asleep right now." He moves his hand to start unclasping Vash's coat, starting from his collar. Vash with red cheeks, responds briskly, "Oh, shut up. I'm worried about you. I can't be worried?"

The final shot shows Wolfwood's back to the viewer while Vash's softened expression can be seen as he holds gently onto the side of Wolfwood's face and a hand firm on his waist. Wolfwood responds, "I'm fine, seriously," pausing for a moment before continuing, "Is it okay to still..?" Vash responds, "Yeah, it's okay."

The next image is a shot from later that night after the previous comic. Vash and Wolfwood are now in bed, half naked. Wolfwood's buries his face into Vash's chest, his arms wrapped around him, while Vash is petting at his hair. Vash reminds him, "Hey. You said we'd talk about it." Wolfwood pauses for a moment before piping up, "In the morning? I'm sleepy." Vash says, "Okay..."

The next two pages start from the morning after. Wolfwood is already fully awake, pulling on his outer jacket as he says to Vash, whos' still bundled in his blankets, "Breakfast is on the table. Make sure to eat it. I'm going to grab some things in town and then we're leavin'. Got it?" Vash says, "Mh." Wolfwood responds, "Good. See ya in a bit." The dialogue starts to shift into Vash's inner thoughts now, as he gets up and eats toast, thinking, "Wait. Weren't we supposed to... talk about it?" The next shot then shows him fully up, meeting Wolfwood in town. He carries a half worried expression with him while Wolfwood slides on his glasses for him. A quick panel shows Wolfwood's tired expression from the night before and quickly juxtaposes with Wolfwood in front of him who's smiling gently, the shades covering his eye bags. Wolfwood asks him, "Still not awake yet?" Vash pauses, his thoughts stirring, thinking, "Oh. I guess I was getting ahead of myself... thinking you owe me that kind of honesty." He smiles at Wolfwood and responds, "I'm awake!" His thoughts continue, "Maybe one day, you'd trust me enough to share your burdens."

The final image shows Wolfwood pulling at Vash's cheek and Vash complains, "Owwwww why..." Wolfwood quickly says, "You were thinking something stupid, right? It's all over yer face." Vash mutters, "Nooo, I wasn't..." END ID]

YAYYYYYY SOLINH WEEK!!

@solinhweek

Creators I love you but it's time to wake up

Among rumors about our tumblr user data being sold off to Midjourney/Generative AI, recent Extremely transphobic events (that have been ongoing) coming to a head, another extremely concerning internet censorship bill being pushed in upper levels of government, and a general air of frustration over how the site belongs to and is operated by perhaps the second stupidest CEO (second only to twitters own) of our age, I'm very done with the last few vestiges of what the old internet held for artists.

And if you're reading this, you probably are too.

I know we're tired. We are all tired. It is not always viable to pack up shop and move, again and again and again.

From tumblr to twitter to anywhere else we've ever grown up posting, things no longer work. Our audiences are kneecapped by aggressive and hostile algorithms, our reach is abysmal - if we aren't shadow-banned or silenced for one (transphobic) reason or another, we're thrust into an ever growing pit of hostility where the only thing that drives clicks is fighting and contention.

We're tired. We're so fucking tired. We aren't businesses, we aren't content mills, we cannot keep this pace that modern social media has set for us, to wring every ounce of creativity out of us to profit from and leave us rotting.

The key to staying afloat here, and I cannot stress this enough, is to stay connected to your peers.

Pack up and move as units if you must. Exodus from the sites that are killing us. Push your entire friend group of artists to move from one site to the next that promises you a kinder experience.

Art drives movements, it drives change, it is all that encompasses being human. If you take that away from the shitty places, they will be left with nothing but a cesspit of inhumanity and the people who follow you will be more incentivized than ever to move with you.

Yes, this is terrifying. There are no guarantees. There never was, and never are, and never will be.

But stay connected. Stay human.

Support each other and be willing to hold hands and jump when we all - as a group - need to jump from the flames we're all trying to convince ourselves wont kill us before rescue comes.

Rescue isn't coming, rescue will be found hand in hand with each other. I'm offering you my hand, please take it. There's always a new start, there are always helping hands reaching for you. You have to look up from the doom-scroll long enough to see and take them.

i still kinda wanna remake and start fresh but now i’m worried no one’s gonna wanna follow me back again

[louissviolin]

Ok, hear me out. Here are a few examples of how there may have been a very very small romance between Raymond and Barbara:

“Did Della Street ever kiss Perry Mason?” “No, not really. Not in front of the camera, at least. WHAT DID YOU TWO DO ON YOUR FREE TIME?! HOW MUCH WERE YOU GUYS KISSING?!

In a 1957 promo of Perry Mason, both Raymond and Barbara can’t stop staring at each other’s mouths when exchanging words. WHAT WERE YOU TWO DOING BEFORE FILMING?!

Raymond wanted Perry to marry Della. He actually wanted a romance between the characters in the original show. The writers didn’t disagree. On the other hand, Erle Stanley Gardner did. WHAT DID RAYMOND HAVE ON HIS MIND TO WANT THIS TO HAPPEN?!

Raymond often took Barbara to dinner on numerous occasions. There were a few times, he took both Barbara and her husband, Bill, with him. Whenever Raymond was in town, he had to see Barbara. YOU JUST CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF EACH OTHER?!

William Katt (Barb’s son) knew that Barbara loved Raymond (and vise versa). He knew they loved each other. Barbara didn’t want her children to see her in love with someone else on the screen. Which is totally understandable. Eventually, all of her children knew the unbreakable bond that Raymond and Barbara had for the 40+ years of a close friendship. SURE YOU GUYS JUST COULDN’T KEPT IT SECRET ANYMORE?!

Thinking about how relatives send you stuff to mend or ask you to make something when they learn you sew and how it's a reflection of simpler times when not everyone had the same skills but that was so everything could be done by someone so hey I send you some sewing I need done and you know I can do chair straw weaving so if you need a chair repared just hit me up and yeah sure when I'll kill the pig I'll send you some of the meat after I prepped it cuz I know how to do it and I have the pig and all. And how it was completely ruined by capitalism to the point where your very survival depends on money not services or goods anymore so what you need from those relatives in exchange for those sewing skills and work are money that you can spend on services and good and you have that made up fucked up thing in between you and the chair mender to the point that in exchange for sewing you get very little money that gets you survival but not comfort and your chair mender relative is the same, and the middle man is the one hoarding money. And those relatives who ask for repairs and mending jobs are doing so because of an instinct that was made obsolete and we're completely disconnected to what a society is supposed to be

I gotta know ur thoughts on what sorta fights Dinobot and Terrorsaur would get into. I just know they wouldn't be able to stand each other and idk how Dinobot lasted more than a second with any of the Predacons without snapping his crank, but particularly goddamn Terrorsaur.

Thank you my savior *sobs

Oh I feel like Dinobot on multiple occasion, for the short time he knew/interacted with him, had almost let the demons win and choke Terrorsaur out.

And the same can probably be said for Terrorsaur tbh, Dinobots honor annoyed the shit out of him on top of a multitude of other things.

They would definitely get into general fights about fighting ability an so on. Obviously, it’s Dinobot, he spars, and Terrorsaur has a short temper and urge to prove he’s better in some way I’d assume

But also I feel like Terrorsaur just starts fights for no reason all the time, and over the stupidest things too. He’s bored and stuck on some random planet with nothing to do, like..this is NOT what he thought this would be, so might as well get his frustration out and argue. And it shows, they make no sense a lot of the time

Like yeah before it sometimes may have been a genuine fight with Dinobot over Terrorsaurs Insubordination and just general annoyingness, which may still get brought up when they fight against each other of the “field of battle” (I saw were you were aiming that one time dinobot)

But then the next moment Terrorsaur starts something so incredibly stupid like why did their ship have to look like that, or why isn’t he second in command huh!? He would be faar better than Dinobot at it (then eventually Scorponok), my mind is not letting me think of anything- so on

Then ofc there’s the occasional shitting on Megatron later on which would quickly turn into him rambling on about how he’d lead far better than him (he would fall for the Maximals saying “hey here’s a gift, truce” and then the gift is just blasting a second later, trojan horse style)

Really though, the worst thing to Dinobot is the fact that Terrorsaur just wont shut up.

That was probably something Dinobot nearly shed a tear about when he joined the Maximals, the quiet. Yeah the Maximals talk, they argue, and Rattrap is one hell of a yapper, but even he has NOTHING on Terrorsaur’s innate ability to not shut up

i need to actually draw scottwarren again. i miss them.

[yeonban]

I'm watching the Pacific Rim anime since I want to give Tobias a PR verse & I've already seen the movies (so this anime has the last few things I need to know about the PRverse) and Tobias is in the back of my head going "wooow, stellar decision" every single time the mcs do ANYTHING bc they keep getting themselves and everyone around them into INSANE danger. They even managed to get 3/4 of the people they've met killed

[theramblingvoid]

Number 6, for Hallowrove!

Okay this is the fun one I'd hoped someone would pick because the thing is it's happened so many times in canon already that there's just NO question about the answer

Hallowrove's List Of Who She'd Go To If Badly Injured, by preference:

- Fluorine Scaleflats, a Rubbery friend with a great skill and interest in Shapeling Arts who can be relied on to piece her back together in (mostly) (if asked nicely) the right order

- Haarsink, who also knows shapeling arts and can probably apply them in a much less biologically creative manner in a medical setting, but is second on the list because showing up bleeding at his place would stress him the hell out (ask me how I know lol)

- Oversol, who although being a deeply trusted safe place to go has no particular medical knowledge or skills and will probably just call a very expensive doctor and/or pick Hallowrove up and sprint her to a hospital, while being VERY stressed either way

Hallowrove's List Of Who He'd Go To If Badly Injured, by what inevitably actually ends up happening:

- Oversol

- Haarsink that one time

- But other than that it's always Oversol

- Good lord Hallowrove you are going to put this poor man into heart failure we have got to stop letting this happen so often -
