✨ before and after coloring challenge ✨
A week ago the lovely @bizarrelittlemew tagged me in this challenge, so here it is me finally doing it :D
So. Yeah. Stealing gifs is a very shit move folks 😑.
They take time and effort to make- they're not gonna colour and cut and frame and slow-mo and sharpen (etc. etc.) themselves. Someone's doing it -we the gifmakers are doing it- and so if you take that gif and repost it without a word of credit to the person who made it, that's just a dick move and it's very hurtful to the gif-maker in question. 🙁
Here's a quote from @saltpepperbeard, that illustrates my sentiments perfectly:
"Because yes, gifs are art. They take time, and effort, and skill to get all beautified up. They help share beloved series around, and help shed light on lovely moments! And just like other mediums, many of us are doing this just because we're passionate, just for FUN.So it hurts to see that passion miscredited, or outright stolen. It hurts to see a stolen piece getting excitement, when we wanted to organically share that with others ourselves." [x]
So please, if you can't find the gif you need by the add gif function and you need to repost -then give credit to the original gifmaker 💗

first art post of the new year!!! granted, i don't share my art here that much anyway, but– shhh.
hehehehhhooo,, here's something i've been working on for 'bout a month,, albeit not consecutively– took a few,, very very long breaks in between working on this,, but i managed to finish it in the end! am i satisfied with it? .......ehhhh? not completely, but if this took any longer, it might not have seen the light of day, so like. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
anyway,, made a little poster for my favorite fic, tommyinnit's services for villains, vigilantes, and various other vagabonds, by @scorpionoesit!!! it's really really good,,, and i've always wanted to make more art for it,, so i decided– poster! at least,, that's what it's mean to resemble,,, dkdmkdmdkd.
i will freely admit,, i'm... not the biggest fan of the fan-made logo i tried to design for it,, feels a bit boring, and could definitely have used a bit more pizazz, something to make feel more like the fic itself(what does that mean? you figure that out),,,, but– again, steam was running low,, dkdnksjs. graphic design is my passion. i do also have other complaints, but i'm afraid i already punched my one-use self-critique card,, oh well,,, dkdnkxjdkd.
regardless,, even with the flaws only i can really see,, this still turned out pretty okay!! hope you enjoy it, mx. scorpio and mx. alibi!!! and i hope everyone else has a wonderful new year!!!!

i refuse to watch the phandom video essay that keeps getting recommended to me because from the first few seconds it’s very obviously just gonna be “the phandom was all just horrible weirdo creep shippers (derogatory)” for like 40 mins but i’m just like it doesn’t have to be like
i obviously just said i haven’t watched the video or any video of that nature for that matter but i feel like one of the things those types of videos likely miss is like the phandom wasn’t necessarily wholly unique in it’s more like toxic aspects of the time. like i think the topic of ‘toxic shipping’ in fandom (specifically rpf) in the like 2010s could be such an interesting video and like the phandom could be involved in a video about that topic but like it just seems unfair to only ever talk about the phandom in regards to that topic (both in the only ever talking about the bad parts of the phandom sense and in the the phandom being the front and center fandom referenced when discussing shipping at the time sense).

Here's my Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon team, comprised of Sage, a human-turned-Riolu, and Blaze, a Fennekin... The Unity!!
This was my team from my initial playthrough when I finally... Picked the game up after remembering I've had it for years and yet had never played it.
Now I have so many thoughts about them because, um.... well you ever just play a game and then it consumes your thoughts for months on end-
Random stuff about them under the cut because. why not!
a lot of it is just random thoughts though :D (though, there are some major spoilers mentioned!)
Sage:
They tend to get really quiet when they're thinking or trying to figure something out. They'll kinda stop responding to people, and if they do talk it's usually really short one or two word replies and then just go right back to Thinking
Aside from Blaze, they're closest to Nuzleaf, Ampharos, and Mawile!
They view Blaze kinda like a little sister. They usually don't mention this out loud, though - they feel kinda silly about it yknow?? They also view Mew as a little sibling, though are a lot more open about that then they are with how their view Blaze
They tend to be Very Clingy to people they're close to - if you are close w/ them then ummmm. Get Hugged!
Y'know how Riolu's have their aura abilities? Well Sage has those because... Riolu. They've used those abilities exactly once and don't even remember it - they aren't even aware they have these abilities tbh!
Picked up on some things Nuzleaf says a lot, and sometimes will unintentionally repeat it or otherwise incorporating it into their own speech without realizing. They think it's embarrassing, Blaze thinks it's hilarious
Blaze:
She has ADHD! sage and blaze are autism 🤝 adhd solidarity together sdfghfd
Despite how fast she tends to recover from bad things happening, some stuff still kinda gets to her more than she wants to let on. She'll still try and hide it and act as if it's not bugging her, but she slips up at times
When her Harmony Scarf turns her into her evolved form, Blaze's eyes change color from their usual red to a bright blue (like Mew's eyes!)
Excluding Sage (and also Carracosta), she's closest with Ampharos, Buizel and Dedenne!
After the epilogue events she wanted to get back to regular expeditions the Very next day, while also still needing to get used to the whole... Existing again thing. Ended up falling on her face a few times while being like "I am completely ready to get back to work!!! lets go!!!!" and Sage and Ampharos just kinda stared at her for a moment like ".....um. yeah i'm not so sure about that blaze" sdfghgfds
She likes to race people places. Going to school in the morning? Race you there. Heading back to Lively Town after an expedition? Racing you there as well. She just thinks it's fun!

I know there are many bad takes about Gale on this site, but the worst takes I’ve seen on another social media site in another language are much more abhorrent than anything here tbh, the recent one I’ve seen even gets some popularity among his “fans”... They were basically saying it’s Mystra who made him the humble man he is now, without her influence on him he would be as egotistical as in his god ending, and more than a hundred of reblogs are all thanking Mystra for “training her lapdog so well” for them🤢
Did we even play the same game? Isn’t his god ending a direct result of Mystra making him think he will never be enough as he is, and he can only find his self-worth through gaining more power? Didn’t Tara say he’s not himself anymore and she would no longer be his companion in his god ending, she knew him long before Mystra made him her chosen, he was powerful enough before his relationship with Mystra, if he’s anything like god!Gale at the time wouldn’t Tara just leave him? I’d imagine he would have been more confident and had a more stable self-image if Mystra had never contacted him, therefore he didn’t even need the Gale of Waterdeep persona. He would always have been Gale Dekarios in that timeline. And people glorifying Mystra’s grooming and abuse towards him and unironically calling him “her lapdog” is just... I have no words. But what do you expect from an online space that’s infested with terfs and radfems? They just won’t recognize or acknowledge any abuse from women towards men...
