Gosh this was hard. Hard to pick an order lol. I usually have my faves on the same spot and not in order of who I like the most tbh. Anyway this was fun and I wouldn't mind listing more ffxiv top tens. Feel free to challenge me. :D

Also here's a special mention because I can't do this without mentioning my oc Koh'sae. He's very special to me.

Hello there, good person.

... what's Rex story?

(I'm new to this stuff)

Hello!! Rex’s story is pretty simple he used to be a normal pet turtle owned by a surfer but got bit by an oozesquito. Since Rex was an adult turtle he immediately became an adult mutant! He found his way into the Hidden City before he eventually moved to the beach where he began to take up surfing. Eventually he ran into the Hamatos when they were having a beach day and became friends with them <3 (then eventually found other mutants and began dating one, Mire! He’s @ saltyspittoon’s oc :] )

I made a little chart with how much he changed in so little time

Don’t tell me there’s still hope after Mark Hudson

Okay, I won't lol

I'm sorry but what part of this is something irreversible when they literally chose to go from one Hudson to another? They are dumb enough to go there? They are dumb enough to go back.

What astounds me is that this is something that presumably went through numerous people for approval. And they said yes.

So, if you're watching something other produced by Shaftesbury, then maybe you shouldn't.

Anyway, I'm not telling people who have reached their limit to keep going. I'm just saying this isn't the end of the world because just like they crossed the line to soap opera with this, they can do it again.

for the artist asks: 16, 20 and 25? <3

hello!!! thanks for asking!!! i'm finally getting around to answering these nearly 3 weeks later loll

16. Something you are good at but don’t really have fun doing

Hmm... I really don't like doing vector art, and I'm not the greatest at it, but I've gotten really good grades for my vector assignments, so I guess that's cool lol. Here's something I made for that class:

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy

I have a lot of fun doing timed figure drawing! Generally I'm good at anatomical illustration (musculature & skeletons), at least to the level needed for my major lol, and (I think) I'm pretty good at applying that to my live drawings. Here's some old stuff from class:

25. Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by

I used to be told by my art teachers in grade school, maybe 3-4 yrs ago, that my art was too 'anime' inspired to do well for art college applications— which is strange because I never really watched any anime at all until fairly recently. Maybe those teachers didn't know what they were talking about, because I got into the art unis I wanted anyway!!! :D

Weirdly Specific Artist Ask Game!

[annoyangle]

Ohhh, have fun in Your take over!! Enjoy deleting and creating as many pasta shapes as you Want!

And thank You :) I think I'll stick around a While longer, this corner of the multiverse is so interesting! A lot more chaotic then the corner I'm from!! - PS!

SURE NO PROBLEM! HELP YOURSELF TO SOME DIP. IT WAS JUST KILLED YESTERDAY!

ACTUALLY IT WAS JUST ONE OF MY LAWYERS YESTERDAY, BUT, DON'T WORRY, HE'S FINE. HE'S AN INFINITELY REGENERATING CRAB GUY. SO WE END UP EATING THE SPARES. IT'S CRAB NIGHT EVERY NIGHT AT THE HEXAGONY!

AND OF COURSE, PASTA GOES GREAT WITH CRAB! WHAT DO YOU THINK, A LIGHT CREAM SAUCE WITH CRAB? AND SOME LINGUINE?

How about 12 for the fic asks!

12. a trope you’re really into right now

currently I'm really loving arranged marriage

[bluesthebest]

" If you're bicurious then I'm fucking Psyduck. "

"Then you're a psyduck. You kinda look like one anyway. Besides Bicurious is exactly what I am. Describes me perfectly."

[rexstorm]

Which two of your OCs would get along best and why?

Ooo good question. Thanks for asking! :3 I'm probably gonna go with two of my swtor ocs Julian Rex and Derria. They're a part of a smuggler crew I've been rotating in my head lately. They're both chill and they go with the flow. Neither of them are too serious and have a good sense of humor.

[bontwisty]

Have you ever thought about CrossRex as a ship 👀

Hello anonymous friend! I have been sitting on this because I must admit I wasn't sure how to answer XD

I personally have not thought about these two as a ship! It could possibly work, I think, as a long/slow burn enemies to lovers situation, but I think Crosshair would have to apologize profusely and in many ways regarding his comment about Echo. To both Rex *and* Echo, ha. I think Rex is a forgiving person, but Cross, being an excellent marksman as we know, zeroed-in on what would hurt Rex the most in that moment, took his shot, and blasted away any possibility that Rex would respect him or possibly even forgive him. But that is often a key element of Enemies to Lovers, innit? One or both parties have to apologize and/or forgive in order to move on with their lives (and their love).

That being said, though, I think it's wonderful that people can see them as a ship! That's what I love about fandom and what I love about Rare Pairs in general. The fun is figuring out how to mesh two (or multiple) characters with each other even if they've only been awful to each other or have hardly had any "screen time" together at all. Makes you think about who they are and what events go on in their lives that bring them together and that then creates more stories to play around in.

Thanks for sending in your question/thoughts, it definitely gave me something to chew on for a bit!

[take-care-with-your-glasses]

Ok, I have been seeing some asks about my father's passing this 31 of December and how it will affect me mentally in terms of writing and all that. That the fandom is right now, getting lots of fics because of me and some other authors from what I can see, that write like I do, but not in the same way I do. As is my main source of having fun. I know that is not the most important thing to address but less talk it point for point.

My dad was an old man, had been feeling sick from the 29 and sadly due his age and other health issues, he couldn't continue anymore and sadly passed away. That, of course some to think becaus mom also died recently. 5 years ago.

But as much as that is going on, I choose writing as my coping mechanism and so far not planning to stop. Also with art, whatever form of art is considered, there's me doing it. Because that's how I find the comfort that is already lost. That is a bit difficult right now? Can't lie, but I still do wish to write Hide and Seek, finish The Very Christmas Generator Rex and other plots.

How do I feel in the personal life? Some adjustments need to be done since now I have other responsibilities. But me is just me still, just something unexpected that it happens for every human unless you spawn into existence. Things happens and the best thing I can do and probably you as well, is deal with it in the best way and keep creating.

So don't worry in terms of that, I'm fine. Is my way to cope and it will be, so if you see more fics from me or art, don't worry, to mend feelings. And I really enjoy it.

#I have like ten different ways the finale can be resolved

Can you share 🥺

I’m looking for inspiration and motivation.

Yeah, sure, I can write a few scenarios.

(Note: I wrote these and then realized that the cartel would probably be from Mexico and not Belize, as it's where Jack must have met the woman who had been running from the cartels. That doesn't change much, though.)

The classic amnesia trope: Charlie was shot and thrown in the water, as we know, and then could have hit his head. He gets rescued by the locals, someone patches him up, but he can't remember who he is or what he was doing in Belize (he clearly doesn't look like a local). Due to his bullet wound, he assumes that he's either had trouble with the cartels or with the law, so he opts for hiding instead of searching for who he is. Slowly, he starts remembering things, like a German shepherd and a woman. It takes a while until he remembers more concrete things, like his name or where he's from. Once he does, he gets to the nearest Canadian consulate. (This is a very easy cop-out they could do on the show. To me, it does nothing as a storyline as everything will be resolved off-screen but it explains why he didn't come back before several months had passed, which is like, the bare minimum.)

Hostage: Charlie was shot and thrown in the water, and was pulled out by cartel members who did patch him up but they held him for months. The cartels figure out at some point that a cop could be useful as a bargaining tool, even from a different country. A dead cop wouldn't be useful and might bring them more heat than they'd like. What I would write, which to be fair I don't know how realistic it is but for this show it doesn't matter, would be the cartel wanting to start a "trade route" to sell drugs in Canada via the St. John's harbours (it's a bit far but maybe it could work). And they would need someone from the SJPD to make sure they're not caught. This is where Charlie could be useful as a hostage. A second alternative is that they could also torture him for information but for this show it's too much.

The traitor: None of what Mark said was true and he's in fact been working for the cartel ever since he'd went on the peacekeeping missions that he'd mentioned (I hardly remember what exactly he said anymore, to be honest, army and something about helping in Belize but in a humanitarian way, not in a kill-people way). Charlie was captured by them, and Mark told the team that he'd been shot and thrown into the water because he had to explain why there was no body. This could also tie with the scenario I wrote above about the cartel wanting to expand to Canada via St. John's, and with Mark in the SJPD, they'd have the perfect in. I actually didn't care much for this plotline before, but I just realized that Mark would make the perfect inside man for them as I was writing it, since he was transferred to the SJPD, so I kinda like it now. I'd like for Charlie to be rescued for this one, but it all gets stuck on the fact that they can't really make an environment look like Belize (the phone scene with Mark pretty much shows that).

Deep undercover: Charlie didn't actually get shot but was recruited by CSIS for an undercover job that he was made aware of while he was in Belize (not that had occurred in Belize, they just let him know of the fact) and everyone had to think that he was dead. Alternatively, CSIS saved him after he was shot and explained to him why they needed him and he agreed (which would be made easier if he was like, out of commission for a few weeks without any contact and they'd let him know that people already thought he was presumed dead). The only one who knows is Mark, so that he could give credibility to his story, and who could also take over Charlie's job for a bit and look after Rex and Sarah. For obvious reasons, I don't like this. I mean, the threat would have to be significant (like annihilating St. John's significant) to not make him seem like an asshole, and it would have to be combined with a justifiable reason for Charlie to be picked instead of actual operatives, which could be a personal connection or a threat to a loved one. Not unlikely, but can easy come off as far-fetched.

Brainwashed: Speaking of far-fetched. This is veering into sci-fi territory. Charlie gets shot and captured by the cartel who brainwash him and turn him into a man with no memory ready to do their bidding. Then he ends up in St. John's for a hit job, and we end up with the delicious angst of whether his loved ones will be able to get him to remember who he really is (Rex would actually be the catalyst. Sorry everyone who'd like it to be Sarah lol but it just would). This would not, in fact, be the first time that a Rex show does a brainwashing storyline, except that the Italian version that did it, wrote the brainwashed part... for Rex lmao. It was kinda ridiculous, except for the way his partner was ready to get mauled by Rex to prove that he's still the same dog that he was before, which was actually nice. Anyway, brainwashing is a nice trope, but this show is not really the show for it.

These are just some of them that I came up with.

Now, for me it's not so much about the resolution of how he survived, there are plenty of solutions. It's about the aftermath. How will they greet Charlie back? What emotions will be displayed? It's not just relief when someone comes back after being presumed dead, that's just one of the first emotions that are displayed. They mourned him for months (or should have *grumbles*), then suddenly he's back. They'd have questions, and the time that passed was (as we already know) a lot. Rex would be clingy, Sarah would wake up in the middle of the night thinking that Charlie coming back was a dream until she saw him right next to her (which would totally be written given this show's inability to even show a bedroom set, I know). Joe would lose it any time Charlie gets so much as a paper cut. Jesse would try to take Charlie's dangerous cases. Charlie would have to go through fucking paperwork and prove to the state (province?) that he's not, in fact, dead, before even being allowed to get back to the SJPD. He'd have to take re-qualification exams, health checkups. And some practical questions. Did Sarah decide that the house was too big for her with Charlie not there and Rex presumably living with Mark and sell it? What about Charlie's car? His bike?

Charlie's responses and general demeanor would be determined by which storyline will be chosen, and could vary so I'm not writing them now, but these are some things that I'd like to see.
