the implications of the show possibly making armand muslim are devastating. marius renames arun 'amadeo' meaning 'lover or beloved of god' which was ALREADY gross in the books since it places him as this godlike figure armand had to worship. and then later on, with the cult in rome and santino, he was forced into worshipping satan which caused a whole crisis for him even when book armand was christian. but if show armand is muslim everything gets a whole lot worse. in islam the biggest most unforgivable sin (if you don't repent) is shirk, or idol worship. by fashioning himself as armand's god, marius not only removed armand's cultural identity from him, he has tainted his faith which is arguably one of the only things armand could've held onto. marius essentially damns armand in one of the most irreversible ways possible by grooming him the way he did with religion as a weapon. and it gets even worse with the cult since armand is not only forced to commit shirk but to reject allah, one of the last ties he has to his cultural identity, completely. armand therefore becomes a metaphor and an example of what colonialism inflicts upon the colonised
#im not muslim so im approaching this purely from a post colonial lens and analysis#people who are more knowledgeable than me on islam and this topic as a whole feel free to jump in#inspired by [redacted] telling me about the different sins in islam last year lmao#deeply fascinating conversation and i just remembered it and thinking about it in terms of armand makes my brain go brrr#rambles#interview with the vampire#armand#the vampire armand#the vampire chronicles#personally im a show muslim armand truther until i have evidence otherwise

from the homumiko mines
#dgs#tgaa#dgs spoilers#tgaa spoilers#homumiko#idk why mikotoba is taller in the kiss. hes on his tiptoes#the first one is inspired by the moment when sholmes puts his hands on ryu's neck so he can feel how cold they are from blood loss lol#anyway i continue to be deeply fascinated with early years homumiko#i feel like my view of their relationship is more slowburn than most#like. they were both not at their best when they met and i can very much see a scenario where they start living together w/out necessarily#liking each other#the last one in based on a line in 1-5 where gregson (?) says that after an hour of blood loss even sholmes piped down or something#which makes me think he would not shut up beforehand. and i think he'd say some stuff He Really Shouldn't Have#but susato wrote it off as delirium + she was too worried abt her dad and messing with the crime scene#que like 5 months later her going .........ohhhhhh#thats not how you write que i think. anyway

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will
#svsss#scum villian self saving system#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#the fact that people think scum villain#-a series that examines and criticizes common tropes in fiction-#is somehow against criticism or being a little hater is wild to me#especially since shen qingqiu never gets punished for being a hater#heck- he's still a little hater by the end of the series#he mostly gets punished for treating life like a play and like he and the people around him are characters#(or in other words- he suffers for denying his own wants and emotions and his own sense of empathy)#I think some of y'all underestimate how much writing/art is inspired by creaters being little haters#like example off the top of my head-#the author of Iron Widow has been pretty vocal about the book being inspired by their hatred of Darling in the Franxx#I think my interpretation of Shen Yuan's transmigration is also supported by the fact that this series is an examines writing processes#side note- though i understand why people say Shen Yuan is lazy and think its a valid take it still doesnt sit right with me#i am probably biased because my own experiences with chronic pain and depression and isolation#but ya- i dont think Shen Yuan is lazy so much as he is deeply lonely and feels purposeless after denying parts of himself for 20ish years#like yall remember the online fandom boom from covid right?#being stuck completely alone in bed while feeling like shit for 20 days straight does shit to your brain#the fact that no one came to check on him + he wasn't exactly upset about leaving anyone behind supports the isolation interpretation too#+in the skinner demon arc he describes his life of being a faker/inability to stop being a faker now that he's Shen Qingqiu#as “so bland he's tempted to throw salt on himself” and “all he could do is lay around and wait for death” (<-paraphrasing)#bro wants to be doing stuff but is stuck in paralysis from repeatedly following scrips made by other people#another point on “Shen Yuan isn’t lazy” is just the sheer amount of studying that man does#also he did graduate college- how lazy can he really be#he doesnt know what hes doing but he at least tries to actively train his students#and he actually works on improving his own cultivation + spends quite a bit of time preping the mushroom body thing#+he's experiencing bouts of debilitating chronic pain throughout all this#but ya tldr: Shen Yuan's transmigration is an encouragement to write and not a punishment and also i dont think its fair to call him lazy

Just to name a few that have influenced me a lot and continue to live in my head permanently! Sorry about the long post, I thought it'd be helpful if I included examples.
My favorite art movement is art nouveau, I like poster art and antique fairytale illustrations a lot, and in terms of art history I'm most interested in renaissance, early baroque and gloomy 19th century romanticism.
#answered#sunnygang#long post#probably missing a number of longtime favorites but there's so many#I didn't include any artist friends and mutuals despite admiring and being inspired by them deeply#it didn't feel right to pick favorites and I thought I'd forget a whole bunch and then feel bad about it

god i need to write more fics that at least tangentially get into gender. because i know that timkon are t4t in every fic i write but it doesnt always come up. and god knows its just me peddling my little rowboat alone in the t4t timkon waters. 😭 i gotta... i gotta keep kontributing... the trans tim and nonbinary kon tags, they need me...
#rimi talks#deeply unfortunate that the trans tim tag is full of bat/cest ships and also transphobia.#what about people (me) who want tim to simply be a trans guy who's simply a freak and it's not bc he's trans it's just his nature#and then theres the nb kon tag. which like all kon tags is populated by people who havent actually read konmics. sad#at least it's better in there than the trans tim tag but still. low bar#BUT HES LITERALLY KONBINARY.#theres a whole saga in my mind about kon's gender journey inspiring tim to actually stop holding onto --#-- the kinda rigid boxes of gender labels and ideas about presentation that he holds himself to bc of his dad's influence#like tim at age 30 is much more comfortable being gnc than tim at age 16#tim at age 16 would see tim at age 30 lounging around in a skirt and legwarmers and feel so betrayed#tim at age 30 is just like im a dude no matter what i wear and im comfy and i stole my husbands skirt. cope#its about the growth they go through together. and making each other better. and also about transgenderisms. and#(and then i peek outside my bubble and remember that jesus god the trans tim tag is a nightmare!!!! AUGH!!!)#i gotta write more t4t timkon. its just me and my little rowboat against the world

OC stuff is dangerous wdym you just think about that guy and you feel things. You made that thing and it’s come such a long way like they’ve grown and fleshed out and you’re proud of them. And there’s an indescribable feeling of pride and tenderness and passion and fondness. That ☝️thingie is My Thing and I love them
#_text#put music on that makes you think of them while drawing them and feel one billion emotion and it’s like wow. hits you how much you care#each little brick placed being one more step to making them feel truly and wholly alive. something with hopes and dreams and fears#Rory has really been coming into his own lately and it makes me kinda emotional and I really do not get emotional about much#I really need to elaborate on some of it with art and just substantiate some of my thoughts and feelings cus there’s just so much#I don’t wanna be tooting my own horn cus this post is not just meant for me. it’s for anyone who’s going through their own process#of making a guy or refining an existing guy. be proud of yourself and step back to admire how they’ve grown!! you’d be surprised by#the various ways things form and add up to create something amazing and uniquely you. all the various sources of input and inspiration#that really is the joy of creation to me. and I love seeing how others characters grow and change and evolve. being part of that process#is especially deeply meaningful and important to me. nothing makes me happier than being a small part of someone else’s work#as someone who hates failing and loathes themselves deeply. I can sincerely say with my whole heart that just trying is an amazing step#put down literally anything. see what does and doesn’t work. get the feel for the kind of person they are and then refine that.#mix logic with your gut feeling. emotion with reason. use existing lore or make it up! creation and success is not linear and#it definitely is deeply demoralising at times and as someone pretty cynical about the whole thing. and who hates myself#I can say it really is worth it. your ideas are worth it and even if you don’t believe in yourself yet#the spirit of my post at least is cheering for you!! because seven+ months ago I was in a pit of nothingness and just.#making zero and putting her out there for the first time has changed so much for the better for me#I will always cheer on anyone’s OC stuff. they - and you - are awesome and should exist and be put out there#thank u for reading. this has been on my mind lately a few times so wanted to ramble

Katsuki is always the number 1 fan favorite because the story comes from Izuku's POV. From witnessing the story through his eyes, the reader just can't help but admire Bakugo, like how Izuku can't help but love him too.
#this is inspired by how Miles Edgeworth is always the fan favorite bcus you take Phoenix's pov#also. well aware this doesnt work for the rest of the ranks#but katsuki is always the exception and it just makes perfect sense to me#Of course he is loved and the favorite by a massive margin. Its bcus we take Izuku's pov in the story#and you watch him change. grow. win. save. everything. you just cant help but love and admire him.#This is probably exactly how Izuku feels#its an entire joke in the ace attorney fandom that nearly everyone kinda just falls for edgeworth#and i think thats exactly cus you witness it from phoenix's pov. he cant help but save and love him too.#just like izuku.#but given phoenix and izuku they have even more deeply personal/ selfish n selfless reasons for it too#so it makes their feelings even more fervent.#evelynpr bnha#bnha#mha#my hero academia#bkdk#dkbk#bakudeku#dekubaku#izuku midoriya#katsuki bakugou#oh and congrats my king my beautiful bbg for being number 1#to no ones surprise XDDD

respectfully I need to climb him like a rope ladder and do him so good we both ascend into the clouds and never recover
#forever in a state of need for him that gets my feminist card revoked#i’m so HE IS JUST SO#he is EVERYTHING to me#the look on his face here is everything i dream of#so tender and approachable and vulnerable#yet with that inner strength that drives him and gives him such character#i feel like russell crowe poured every bit of his soul into maximus#there’s something so deeply human about him#something so deeply good and noble beyond the mere appearance of it#he’s a man who has fears and concerns and tendencies and blind spots and flaws#but also so motivated to do what’s right that all those other things are nearly forgotten#he loves his family his emperor his soldiers his home his ancestors and his honor#and he lives in a way so that he won’t disgrace any of them#and that constantly brings him into the spotlight because such a good man is so rare#i just!!! think he’s the best guy ever!#his face inspires me to write entire books of romantic poetry#i will write an epic of you my love#i will immortalize your goodness and strength#if he fixed this gaze on me i would be a puddle on the floor#that’s it jane is dead from an overload of handsomeness#obsessed with those big clear blue-green eyes and those little forehead crinkles and those wide shoulders#the face of a man who needs to be KISSED#and snuggled and caressed and loved on#i will!! i will love him if no one else will!#i will love him long after both our names are forgotten!#he’s so beloved by me he’s SO dear and precious to me#gladiator#maximus decimus meridius#gladiator 2000#russell crowe

Having Armand still dating Louis during the interview is a major departure from the book and I've been thinking about why they would choose to do that. I'd love to hear what other people think about that decision making process, but I've managed to convince myself it's, in part, evidence that they're planning on doing a 70s devil minion reveal.
After you decide to age up Daniel and do a second interview, the question of his relationship with Armand is one of the big decisions you have to make next. Do you include that relationship after the first interview, like the book, or take it out/do it out of the second interview? If you include the relationship in the 70s that does present a pretty big problem to the idea of a second interview. Daniel would know a lot about vampires, and probably a lot about Louis's story too, and you have the fact that Armand turned him while they were together. It's pretty easy to punt Armand turning him, and I can see Armand's powers expanding pretty naturally to memory alteration (or maybe he does do that in the books? Idk I'm only on the second book). Then, the question is why did they break up, and why would he remove Daniel's memories? Armand still being with Louis seems like a pretty good way of tying up all of those, and it also gives you a neat way to set up the fact that Armand can take away memories.
#the fact that they set up memory wiping at all is the most compelling evidence of dm to me#and also eric's book perforated heart#an older successful writer whose career is waning learns about the stuff he got up to in the 70s#i haven't read it yet but when i saw the synopsis i was like oh that's the plot of every dm erased memory fic#and the writers specifically wanted eric so i can see them being inspired in theme by his works#i think way too much about this show#what did rolin jones say about iwtv fans?#that their fans are deeply unwell?#something like that#iwtv#amc iwtv#this feels very rambly#i hope it makes sense

really weird experience to be someone who 'making things' is my raisin d'etre, the self-identified entire point of my life, to have this ravenous desire to be MAKING MAKING MAKING and then go ok buddy let's look inside and see what we wanna make and just find a void
no idea only making and that's like every day of my life for the most part would love to figure out whatever's behind that and fix it because i am much happier when that is not what is happening to me thanksss
#i know part of it is that no idea ever feels good enough and that i am extremely critical of things other people make#BECAUSE i am extremely self-critical as well. like im aware of that#but that cant be the whole thing like whatttt else is going on in there. why is everyone overflowing with creativity except me.#ive always been like that since i was a kid#i have nothing to say until someone asks me a question and _then_ i have all these ideas.#which is fine for a human being but prohibitive if you want to create things#and it's all very well to say just lean on your friends and be creative with them. it works. until it doesnt.#it would be really nice to feel like the things i make come From Me for once.to be without that guilt of 'well actually X came up with that#no man is an island except me i should be one because i dont deserve not to be . or whatever#anyway i would like my early thirties to be about figuring this out. because i have a creative life to live.#i think about toby fox's rich tapestry of all the things that inspire him and the things he wants to say about the world and i say Thats Me#I Want To Do That. and then i sit on my hands and i do nothing.#SIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH anyway#momo talks#i misspelled raison d'etre to make myself laugh by the way. important to know.#the being of raisin#edit: deeply funny post to be making when i put out a fic literally two days ago that ive been working on for months

I cant be, what you need, I am stuck, in a dream, I am stuck, in a dream.
#sorry for relating to him guys ill walk myself out#anyways this is everso slightly inspired by kizuki eye!!! slightly since i. havent been able to read and havent seen all the goings on😭😭#one day.. one day ill catch up i will.. but yeah i kinda associate this song heavily with lotus dreams and kizuki eye with what i HAVE seen#douma#demon slayer#kimetsu no yaiba#douma demon slayer#btw please check out kizuki eye i begibeg check out tobytoon i beg i beg !! they understand douma and enmu like no one else#anyways yeah.. imagery of interacting with ur own child self haunts me a little#i have dreams like this every so often and i think douma should too because despite evrything i deeply beliece#he too thinks that perhaps. if someone had cared for that child than he wouldnt exist#he too sees that child as a seperate entity#he too sometimes feels that distant yearning to comfort what no longer exists#SOOOORRRY ANYYWAAAYS haha douma a fun guy am i right guys. .
