[id: a painted, digital illustration. it is a bright and sunny day and casts the ocean into beautiful colors. marin from links awakening stands barefoot in the shallows, the water rising just above her ankles. she tucks her hair behind her hair, escaping in the gentle breeze. her necklace reflects the suns light. the sun rises just above marins head, framing her. end id]
did a fun lil painting! was feeling bored w my current art so i wanted to try something new lol

My rabbi told me he likes my choice of Hebrew name and that when we reach the relevant parshat he'd love to have me teach some Torah on the particular reading that lead me to choose it, so I am currently feeling very "I am getting a good grade in Judaism, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve"

once upon a time I tried to give Fallout: New Vegas a go but I was playing it on my computer and got fed up with the controls so I gave up real early
well just yesterday I decided to look for it on the Microsoft store instead to download to my Xbox and lo and behold. It's less than three bucks rn. So I downloaded it and OH
MUCH BETTER WITH A CONTROLLER
anywayy I haven't gotten much done yet, have literally just made my character and done like. The tutorial mission and then I went to talk to Ringo and now I gotta recruit help for him or some shit
but yea enjoying it already. Though I have bad habits from Fallout 4 where I want to just grab whatever junk I see and. I don't think this game has the same base building mechanic soo I don't think I need all this stuff >.> at least I can sell it I guess
also the Caravan card game pisses me off and I probably won't bother with it
welp time to get back to playing >:)

"Mirror, Mirror" but with an opposite personality Metabee too? So withdrawn, timid beetle bot that often hides behind his Medafighter--
And there a quite Majin walking around. Very quiet and looking down at her hands. Messing with her gloves for a bit as she let out a sigh. Just not really looking while she was kinda out of it. Her eyes were black with green pupils very striking. Very unnerving too as she sighed softly.

[chin hands] omegaverse difanghua is s o interesting and it would be double the interesting if feihua were both alphas, and emotionally constipated in their own unique ways. it puts their rivalship in new light bc, ykno, alphas are knotheads, who fight before anything else.
alphas fight to impress the one they want.
they fight to be viewed as an ideal mate.
they fight to establish an hierarchy amongst themselves.
they fight because it's the easiest way to protect those they want to protect.
di feisheng has only ever known that violence when he meets li xiangyi and li xiangyi is already too immersed sect politicking to care about anything beyond his sect, his pack. the superficiality of his reactions to di feisheng are like a mocking slap to feisheng's face because what feisheng is unconsciously looking for is not what li xiangyi is looking for. oh, not at all.
li xiangyi's already a topdog, and alphas go out of their way to bare their necks and bellies. of course it goes to his head, why wouldn't it. so he doesn't need to pay attention to dynamic behavior, doesn't need to see beyond feisheng challenging him as a rival sect leader.
and then ten years later, li lianhua is a broken, changed man; an alpha that disdains everything his dynamic is.
and di feisheng is still as he was, just more prone to alpha-rage and postering. the fact that li xiangyi is dead is something completely incompatible with him. he's spent ten years quietly denying a reality that would leave him totally isolated.
anyways this got real long and is more feihua than difanghua but listn
they both go thru the events of the series automatically assuming fang duobing is a bratty lil beta (he's not, hes a bratty lil omega uwu) because of how much a nonthreat he is, how much he coasts under their instinctual protective radars.
it's a combination of things, really. lianhua is a dying man, and he hasn't had regular ruts since he was first poisoned. feisheng never had regular ruts in the first place, and when his body went through the shock of simultaneously winning an alpha-fight, losing a potential mate, and almost dying, its biological equilibrium was fucked up. what this means is their bodies just aren't in the game. which means they aren't in the social game of playing their parts as alphas. yes, they both still have latent alpha instincts but it's incredibly easy for them to just ignore these instincts and function as dynamicless.
they are both also functionally packless alphas, and just don't consider fang duobing as someone who has their protection. that changes, of course, for li lianhua when he finds out who duobing's sperm doner father is. it begins to change when di feisheng has amnesia, and he's constantly in proximity with duobing and lianhua as ah-fei.

[1] Chapitre 177 - A Dream One Cannot End
Not with THAT attitude anyway!
This is the twin cover to 176, mirroring Lava Lamp’s face to Syaoran’s, and you may have guess by the fact that I’m not immediately showing it that it has blood streaming artfully across the page. I really can’t bring myself to try bandaid this up so I’m just going to have it hiding below the cut instead. See below
And here is the previous one, for contrast!
And OH HOW GORGEOUS!
How Lava Lamp’s clothes are white on black, while Syaoran’s are just black. How they make an image of a whole but can’t be harmoniously united in their current state. How Lava Lamp is surrounded by sakura petals, while Syaoran’s only companion is the floating blood and gore around him - and the patterns of both are in the EXACT same place for each of them. How they both have such clear shadows behind them that are visual stand ins for the person standing right in front of them, so close now that it’s the peak of danger.
UGH. GORGEOUS.

today’s research shock is that the “how about a nice hot cup of freedom” poster in the CATFA credits
is not a real poster. or rather, it IS a real poster (or based on one, anyway), but it’s actually a poster about COFFEE RATIONING IN THE U.S.

getting frustrated with the way people talk about fictional characters again. "how can you like her she's a COP" yeah thats why i like her shes a brilliant dissection of cop mentality and an exploration of what it means to try and make the world better after you spent so long making it worse. that's fascinating. that's a good story.
she's not *actually* a cop because she doesn't exist. she's words on a page. no humans were harmed in the making of this podcast.
i can say whatever the hell i want and it's valid fiction. sans undertale went on an arson spree. there. surprisingly, no one has been hurt by my fun little short story. it never happened.
