Imperial YCH

hey do YOU want a really cool imperial drawing? do you want YOUR imperial to be the really cool one?

WELL HAVE I GOT A DEAL FOR YOU

for the low low cost of 1500g, I will make your imperial the STAR of this drawing!

what does that involve you ask? what kind of quality can you expect? WELL LISTEN TO THIS

you will get a LARGE PNG (at least 1000px, 300dpi) with CLEAN LINES & BASIC COLORS & SHADING, with optional transparency or colors/shapes for the background! I'll even do simple apparel and maybe even accents! (think simple jewelry, bandanas, scarves, etc. just ask if you're in doubt!) complex genes may be rejected, or greatly simplified, but we'll see.

"but cat, I want something a little more fancy-" GOOD NEWS!

at 2000g, I will do either more complex apparel or go a bit harder on the coloring and shading! 2500g you can get both! add more, and we can get even fancier!

even better? the gems are just for ease of pricing - I can take treasure (1:1000), mixed payment, scrolls - just ask! as long as it helps me progress on projects or towards a lair expansion, I'm flexible!

If you want examples of my art, please browse my art tag! if you want more specific examples of what you'd get for x payment, just ask!

I'm only planning to offer one of these, but if there's interest I may do more, using the base lines but modifying for YOUR dragon. or if you want a whole new dragon, I have some imps in my lair that you can have with the art, you choose the genes!

interested? contact me here or (preferably) on FR at Catfeather #30894 (link in pinned post)

Ahhhhh, a case of tumblr's "how dare you say we piss on the poor" reading comprehension, once again found in the wild. I don't think I've ever seen you call Ganondorf a good guy, or misunderstood. From what I've seen you, and anons, say you'd wish there had just been more depth to him. Very different than "secretly misunderstood uwu baby" not like him having an actual personality and story would have negated him being a horrible person. A character born from misunderstanding and hardship, can still turn into an unquestionable monster and villain.

Oh well, I mean the thing is, it's the kind of position that it's hard to argue with once you already made your point. Not everybody just... has the tools to understand the actual argument too, which I mean, it's why I think it's important to talk about themes and cultural shortcuts and the history of tropes on top of the general history, because in many cases it needs to be actively sought for.

And yes, I think what bugs me with this whole thing is... Like, wouldn't it make for a better story? Just, pushing all of the more sensitive reasoning of representation to the side (even though it's not neutral to constantly demonize men of color or render them lovingly stupid, which does remain a pattern in the series), wouldn't the story gain more momentum and investment if the bad guy had compelling motivations that made sense (and I'm not even saying they have to go all poor little meow meow, they could just be: why is Power a good thing for him)? I honestly don't see what it would remove, I only see advantages to making Ganondorf slightly more complex, and I don't really understand the opposition to that. Are you guys like... okay with the most generic anime man motivations known to mankind spurred out of his mouth in a way that is basically completely indistinct from any other generic baddie out there? Like is this peak quality? Can't we be like "Nintendo, your game is great, but you kind of cheesed this thing a lot of people expected you to handle better and with more thoughtfulness, like I'm not sure I would have been able to tell if you had gotten Chat GPT to write this instead of an actual person, and your unwillingness to take narrative risks is getting a little concerning. TotK is a very fun game, but maybe reinvest in the narrative department next time because it was not the best you could do and you probably know this"

And like... for this to be a normal and reasonable opinion to have and share?

I don't know, the defensive atttitude about Nintendo when their games are faced with extremely mild complaints all things considered is just an extremely puzzling phenomenon to me.

experiencing a novel brand new emotion called having a pretty good time doing the job i do most days for a living

[snazzyscarf]

posting moments me when i think thoughts anyway i just think it sucks that i have so many ideas and stuff i wanna draw/create and absolutely the ABILITY to do these things like i have been trained to do them and i've learned to do them and i have proven i can do them in academic settings but the fucking price of getting those skills is never being able to apply them in any personally meaningful way because burnout is a son of a bitch and i hate it. yeah i can make comics and animations and rigs and models and games and i absolutely have the inspirations for them & ideas for them & Want to do them but there is always Something Else That Takes Priority & by the time i have a sliver of free time i sleep straight through it because my health is a travesty. i would fucking Love to make anything for fun but god fucking forbid i have a work-life balance

I'm helping design a character for school :D

[quillyfied]

I had an editing professor in college overhear me say to a friend about NaNoWriMo that year “I’m not gonna do it this year, I’m too busy” and he responded “you’re always going to be too busy. Do NaNo anyway.” I didn’t heed him that year, or any year since, but nine years later it has hit me this morning all over again that yeah, truly, as an adult, I’m always going to be too busy, and especially too busy for the things I love and want to do, if I don’t make the time myself. How to do that, I’m not quite sure yet, but I think changing the mental narrative from “I can’t I’m too busy” to “I’m always going to be too busy. How can I make it work anyway?” might be a good first step.

so like judge said in an interview w Paste that they did 8-9 middle aged eps in total (altho in another interview he said they did 6-7 so. lol. what is the truth.) but if that's the case and we only got 3 this season... that would mean half of the episodes next season will include old b&bh? ??

tbh the phantom piper is like. the epitome of how much some audios could benefit from directly acknowledging 6b rather than siphoning the plot off into 'two and jamie are travelling alone but we're not going to address it/we're going to throw in a mention to victoria being at graphology lessons so it's feasibly s5'

but if you think about it. the actual implanting of the shard into jamie's brain is quietly treated as quite horrifying?? the story makes a point of the fact that they needed 'two security guards and a sedative' to subdue him for the operation. he clearly didn't want this. and yet two's able to talk his way out of getting one himself. which begs the question of why two let jamie go through the process, and only spared himself. either you assume that two has deliberately enabled jamie to be implanted with the shard so he can study it (which is horrifying in and of itself, and if the author genuinely wanted to set the story in series 5, really begs for a callback to evil of the daleks and their newly rebuilt trust - but the story doesn't explore this avenue at all), or. two just let jamie have the operation for fun I guess. there's no explanation.

whereas if this was directly acknowledged as a 6b story. there's so much more scope there. jamie's already had his memory wiped once, so automatically the implications around the shard deleting memories feel way more personal. surely that's something that would strike home for him (rather than being quite chill and unconcerned about the whole thing for a lot of the narrative, as he is in the story, without a huge amount of attention paid to that being quite ooc). but then in terms of two's motivations, if he'd been sent by the cia to investigate the implants, and he actually had been forced to allow jamie to undergo the operation - that's potentially super interesting!! possibly for the first time they're each finding out first-hand just how risky working for the time lords could be for jamie!! the audio's themes of memory and consent just work /so well/ for 6b - and it can't play with that at all, because it doesn't fully acknowledge 6b itself.
