something so crazy-making about unhealthy mentor-protegé relationships. we're foils, we're mirrors, we're the same person, we're a parent and a child, we're lovers, we're enemies, we'd be better off without each other, we'd kill and die for each other
#its literally all walter and jesse: you're the only one i can teach and i'm the only one you can learn from#don and peggy: we're building the desert of the real and you're the only real thing there#house and chase: please free us from our bad show so we're more than just the potential for being interesting

doing chibi is a good design exercise bc it forces u to think on shapes n essential details, essentially thumbnailing ur designs. its also a terrible design exercise bc it ends up looking cute no matter what
#dimension 20#fantasy high#riz gukgak#very specifically class swap bard!riz#fh class quangle#mm. I may need tags for all the asides Ive been doing lmao#riz's canon design is so coherent and thematically clean that I genuinely struggle to keep up...#bard!riz's whole thing is working out his identity through abject fear so it kiiiinda makes sense that hes got a different thing going#on every year I guess? like lmao the directive I go into each of these designs with changes vastly#freshman bard!riz has to look extremely nonthreatening. and also make you wanna pick him up and chuck him at a wall#annoyingly inoffensive. slides off your memory pretty much immediately. a void of an experience#crucially Does Not Show Teeth While Smiling#sophomore year bard!riz I have been keeping the like. cameraman direction for#I want him to be swimming in clothes a little bit... he kinda lands at like. 80s/90s shlocky horror protag too which I do like#bc what is season 2 to riz if not a horror story lmao#junior year bard!riz I want to be somewhere between clark kent and tintin#the journalist aesthetics is not so clear and easy to build as the detective or spy aesthetics...#but also I just. really like boy journalist lmao this is the BD blood speaking again#and! I actually do draw his hair differently than in my canon junior year riz stuff. its a bit shorter here so it doesn't#obscure as much of his face#its so funny actually going from drawing canon stuff to class swap esp. with riz bc he's smiling SO much here#and it's 100% trained like its crucial for u guys to know he is equally if not more fucked up as a bard#barely anybody can wrangle him in canon it's already been mostly him keeping himself on track. imagine if he actually learned how to act#mmm. I think these designs are still gonna soft change as I draw them. thats fine we have fun#drawing sophomore year bard!riz for those comiclets was fun as hell. I think on this factor alone I call it a success lol

The power of hotdogs
Danny is running to Gotham to escape the GIW. As he’s running into an alleyway, he crashes into non other than condiment king who proceeds to attack and hits the GIW goons behind him. This absolutely terrifies them due to the fact that their prestigious white clothes will be stained. The fact that he has people running in terror gives Condiment king a giddy feeling so he proceeds to chase them around Gotham.
Thus starts Danny’s constant exploits of running to condiment king when he’s being chased and the rogue scarring the living daylights out of the GIW. They develop nightmares and Condiment king starts developing new concoctions that will specifically stain clothes and never come out. Mwa ha ha!
Eventually, Danny gets adopted by the rogue and becomes his sidekick. Now, when people learned that condiment king got a new sidekick, they laughed. Who in their right mind would want to mentor under him. They believed that this was some poor sob who was down on their luck and truly desperate. That or some weirdo like the ‘king’ himself.
But they didn’t understand.
They didn’t understand that they should never have let Danny Fenton (known as Phantom) become Condiment King’s sidekick.
Danny knows how to animate hotdogs and other foods to create an army. Danny knows intimately about the secret nasty burger sauce that is capable of powerful explosions of you heat it up. Danny has knowledge in the usage and how to build various weaponry designed to shoot or even be powered by green sludge (which can easily be replaced by ketchup, mustard, or relish).
And he hasn’t even shown Gotham his power-set yet. No one knows why he calls himself phantom. For all they know, he’s just a normal (terrifying) human.
Everyone blames the GIW for this mess.
#Dpxdc#dcxdp#Kizzer55555 ideas#all hail condiment king#Danny becomes condiment king’s sidekick.#Danny gets adopted by condiment king#He makes it everyone’s problem#Army of hotdogs#Hotdog henchmen.#The nasty burger sauce is weoponised#Don’t worry though#Danny doesn’t kill anyone#Everyone learns to FEAR condiment king’s sidekick.#Sure he’s the only rogue that doesn’t kill but he is so much worse.#The bats regret their life choices.#The bats regret they didn’t stop this.#The entirely of Gotham hates the GIW.#Even the rogues#This is all their fault.#Condiment king and Danny raid a food market and start a hotdog uprising#He drives many people to vegetarianism.#Damian is the only one happy about Danny being Condiment king’s sidekick.#Danny cannot drive.#He build a weoponised food truck.#These two things are related.

occasionally i encounter posts about people using like. language learning apps and figuring out their reading level and it's like okay yeah that probably is easier than going on internet archive sorting by language picking an article and/or textbook that seems interesting and then pausing every two seconds to look up words but i've chosen the hard road and i'm sticking with it 👍
#language learning#langblr#is that a thing?#the actual reason i'm practicing my russian on random soviet-era articles is 1) the thing i need it for is soviet-era articles#and 2) even though it's a massive pain in the ass being interested in the reading material does actually make me practice consistently#the current one is from 1964 (final year of the khrushchev thaw) which is a little past when i study (stalinist period)#there's this kind of implicit what we had before wasn't *really* communism. now we're building communism#but without mentioning any of the before explicitly

all the vivziepop critical posts thinking they're making a good point shitting on Sinsmas while in reality it just exposes their absolutely nonexistent media literacy.
"Stolas is a bad father, a bad lover, selfish and he doesn't try enough"
Girl, have you ever heard of a character arc? We are in mf season two for a show that will be 5 seasons. We're not even at the midpoint. Three doritos ago, people were shitting on Blitzø for his emotional unavailability and lack of commitment, and now that his arc has progressed, he's everyone's favorite. How about you wait until the story is done to draw your conclusions? I know. Revolutionary concept.
Alternatively, if it makes you so angry that you want to shit yourself, you could just. Stop watching. And let everyone else enjoy in peace.
#helluva boss#vivziepop critical#don't get me started on the absolutely braindead takes on Millie's cliffhanger#or Stolas's relationship with Octavia#smh#stolas#blitzo#stolitz#to be real there were SO many great things in this ep that no one is talking about#like can we just appreciate blitzo's growth for one second?#at the start of the season blitzo would have pushed stolas away for feeling unworthy and responsible for the fact he can't see his daughter#now he is there for him. he reassures him. and even though he hasn't said the L word yet itnis very visible in everything he does#this season was focused on blitzo's growth and coming to accept he is in love and worthy of it#i am sure the next will focus on stolas and learning accountability and responsibility for his actions#and frame that in his relationship with blitzo and octavia#and on the side it might focus on blitzo learning to be a partner and beginning to work for that family he wants (with stolas and the girls)#he might become the medium that intervenes with octavia thus building a relationship with his step daughter#and also loona. loona might become a bigger piece in the rescue-octavia arc

#--/ art#--/ story#ava the dark lord#⬇⬇⬇ context in the tags ⬇⬇⬇#alan becker#animator vs animation#animation vs minecraft#ava the chosen one#it is done !! ok ill give y'all the intro context synopsis now#the story goes that way way way way before Showdown cho and dark used to sneak into abandoned-looking buildings in the city at night#and one such target they stumble upon happens to be a storage room containing artifacts from Minecraft#the most interesting being the beds.#on this particular outing cho and dark were returning from other shenanigans and could use a place to rest. perfect!#dark belly-flops onto the right bed (scooting them out of alignment) and strikes a pose.#while chosen is shoving them back together again... oh. he's already asleep? ...???#!!! the beds draw you in if you get too close!#so what was supposed to be half an hour at most rest turned into the whole night. they skedaddled and forgot about the freaky beds.#until. a certain someone goes and dies :333#you get it now ! ! !#it was dark diesn't ALL ALONG-#yeah and then for extra spice i threw in that the hooded stick King meets with during his episode to buy a command block...#...happens to own that storage room.#thus and so begins more brand new shenanigans with dark interacting with this shady rando. i call em seafoam#i highly extremely doubt there's a tag for seafoam . . . wiki calls them only 'hooded stick figure'#anyhow. behind the scenes this was also a practice of drawing things in 3D... keeping on model... and composition for storytelling#and i learned some things about how Whiteboard works too :o i. didn't know about the fill tool. it is cool#yayaya!! so that's been in my head for a while.#thx for reading <3 <3 ill be posting some close-up shots of this and other things i put on the whiteboard later#Minecraft bed

Zoro fights a lot with just 2 swords now instead of heading straight for the three sword style. Like I know he would uses only two swords previously for some things and he even had some 2 and 1 sword style moves but that was mainly just cutting obstacles. But now even in fights with some weight to them he uses 2 swords for the majority of it and then 3 sword style to finish them off (like with pica or lucci)
Which I never really noticed before but makes total sense now giving who he trained with for 2 years .
This is his evolution of Mihawk fighting lesser opponents with his knife. He’s learning restraint. Because if Zoro was going to learn anything from Mihawk in the two years they spent together. It was going be how to stunt on fools.
#when I noticed it in egg head I intially thought it was just Oda incorporating a bit of the live action into his style#because three swords are harder to maneuver in real life Mackenyu usually builds up to them so I thought Oda was emulating that#but watching Dressrosa I see that it’s been happening for a while so it’s actually just part of Zoro’s character growth!#I mean it makes complete sense look who he was learning from. the first thing Mihawk says is going all out on weaker opponents is for brute#so yeah neat little detail. but ofcourse I could also just be making all this up in my head#whose to say 🤷🏿♀️#throwing thoughts to the void#kc watches#dressrosa#dracule mihawk#hawkeye mihawk#one piece#op#roronoa zoro#zoro#goth fam#one piece thoughts#one piece analysis#opla#mackenyu#opla zoro#one piece spoilers

When Ming Fan finally fought his way through the underbrush to where the Rift had appeared, it was already too late. Shizun and Luo Binghe stood at the edge of the yawning chasm, swords unsheathed and pointed at each other. He hadn’t thought much of it when Shen Qingqiu had flown past him so soon after the earthquake that had torn open the Rift, but he could now see there was something very wrong. Shen Qingqiu’s back was turned to Ming Fan and his face hidden, but he could see plainly the fear and confusion on Luo Binghe’s face. Along with the glowing, damning mark on his forehead. Something demonic.
Ming Fan gripped the foliage, forcing himself not to run out. Not yet. He’d end up dead or wishing he was. He had mocked Luo Binghe early in the Conference, yes, but he knew the younger boy had done nothing to merit this kind of punishment—!
In a matter of seconds, Xiu Ya had stabbed forward, Zheng Yang had shattered, and Luo Binghe had staggered back into the Rift.
Everything seemed to still.
Ming Fan sucked in an breath and darted out of the foliage—but it was too late. Luo Binghe’s arm vanished over the edge just as Ming Fan ran past their shizun. He lunged forward the last few feet, fingers clawing at Luo Binghe’s forearm just in time. Caught, held. The sudden weight had him crashing again against the ground and the wind was knocked out of him. The taste of charred earth mixed with that of fresh blood where he’d nearly bitten his tongue in half.
But that was inconsequential. Not when he could feel the weight at the end of his arm that told him he didn’t fail. Even when the only person he needed to acknowledge that fact was someone he couldn’t stand. No one deserves to die like this, Ming Fan thought viciously. Not even him.
Dangling below him, Luo Binghe’s eyes were wide with terror and confusion, at odds with the damning, demonic seal glowing on his forehead. But there was something like gratitude there as well, out of place and so painfully frail.
For a fragile second, it felt like they were breathing the same
“Shixiong—”
With a cry, he was wrenched from Ming Fan’s grip and into the Abyss below. Ming Fan’s cry was strangled in his throat.
He didn’t know how long he remained there, clenching the burned grass with white-knuckled fingers and straining his eyes to see through the acrid smoke that rose from the chasm for even the barest glimpse of Luo Binghe. But time moved on and the Rift sealed shut and when Ming Fan blinked and once more became aware of his surroundings, he realized he was not alone.
Shen Qingqiu loomed over him like a stone Buddha, face cold as jade. His spiritual sword was once more sheathed, his robes neat and not one hair out of place. As though he hadn’t had a hand in what had happened here.
“You… you killed him,” Ming Fan breathed, still unable to fully process what had just taken place. But that’s what it was, a death sentence fed to the hungry maw of the Endless Abyss.
Shen Qingqiu. “He was a stain upon our sect.”
Ming Fan could feel the rage slowly rise. “He was a disciple of Qing Jing Peak. He was your disciple.” Acknowledging it was like vinegar on his tongue but a boy was dead because of him. He stared at Shen Qingqiu as if seeing him for the first time. Stripped of his elegance and his masks…
“He was a demon.” Shen Qingqiu sneered down at him. “There is no need to explain to you why he needed to be eradicated.”
Ming Fan tore burning eyes away from that frigid, impassive mask. He couldn’t bear looking at the man he had so long idolized. Instead he stared at the ground, in fear he would do or say something he could not undo. And beside his knee he saw slivers of metal.
The shards of Zheng Yang, tangled in the burned grass. Ming Fan’s vision blurred and his breath grew sharp and ragged, anger slamming into him full force. He wrapped his fingers around the pieces, the razor pain of their edges grounding him as the rest of his world unraveled like poorly woven cloth. His shizun had failed him.
And he had failed his shidi.
#svsss#bingfan#ming fan#luo binghe#shen qingqiu#shen jiu#my writing#I had some vague ideas abt the aftermath#how ming fan tries to tell the other peak lords what happened and what SQQ did but he’s forced into closed-door cultivation to shut him up#it’s a cover up basically and over the years he’s in there his minor qi deviations build up without treatment#meanwhile LBH in the abyss has LOTS of things to contemplate while he’s going through boot camp in literal hell#he’s got some good memories to sustain him in the abyss—his mom + nyy’s kindness + weirdly his accidental dreamwalking into mf’s memories#after the demon invasion#and learned a few uncomfortable truths abt his shixiong and his messed up family (see my headcanons for ming fan 😥 sorry bby)#after LBH gets out of jail and starts his revenge spree a la count of monte cristo#he does some dreamwalking reconnaissance to check out CQMS’s defenses and notices ming fan is noticeably absent#stuff happens and there’s more plot in there somewhere ig#but eventually LBH gets to Cang Qiong and literally tears the mountain apart to get to the Lingxi caves to find his halfdead situationship#idk that’s all I’ve really had in my notes for this au#also meng mo being a little asshole to post-abyss LBH lol#if anyone wants this au#please#take it#aus I’d love to read#aus I’d love to write#but have no time/motivation/inspiration to do so#and if you do pls credit me/send me a link bc I love reading what creative paths others take

Thinking about how for every tragedy and trauma Ezran has been through in his life he's had Callum to lean on. Thinking about how Callum stood by his brothers side through every hard thing they had to go through. Thinking about how all of a sudden another trauma has hit Ezran and all of a sudden Callum is not by his side to take care of him. Thinking about how Ezran must be realizing there was always going to come a time when that would happen, and that their relationship is going to look different from now on. Thinking about how Ezran is realizing that Callum has a new priority in his life and is building a future with her and Ezran has to accept that
#the dragon prince#tdp spoilers#am i making any sense??#i just have a lot of thoughts about all of it. callum has been a pretty big lifeline for ez through parents dying and things changing#and ez looks at callum over the ruins of their home and realizes his brother can't be there for him on this one#he's seeing that callum has grown up and is building a life around rayla and he's learning that he's going to have to accept that Callums#life is changing in such a different way than his own

Trying my hand again at some digital art once again cuz I really wanted to draw Gem with her season 10 aesthetic :) I’m really excited to do some watercolor pieces of her base too!
Here’s a version with no fish:

#hermitcraft#hermitcraft season 10#geminitay#my art#this piece is also dedicated in part to my sibling who I managed to get hooked on gem’s videos :3#I want to play around with gem’s design at some point too it’s on my very long list of things to paint#I think her aesthetic this season will be a good challenge for me with dull colors and learning to paint buildings and water#also ma look at me doing digital art! I’m slowly getting more used to it and finding a process and style similar to my traditional one#this fish seem like a very psychedelic thing so I also want to experiment with that and I would love to do an animation with them
