#time is having a crisis

[firefliesnightcore]

Time sighed, resigning himself to a night of being used as a pillow again (don't ask) when a heavy thump came from the floor just below their room. Time propped himself on his elbows to listen harder, uncaring when Twilight whined in his sleep at being jostled.

The voices were muffled, but the irritation in the woman's tone rung out loud and clear. The voices began to steadily rise, as did the tension permeating through the floorboards until a final slam silenced the argument. 

Time sat up properly, waiting for any noise at all. 

All he got was dead silence.

"Hey." Time hissed, trying to nudge the farmer with his foot. "Pup?"

Twilight grumbled something into Time's leg and rolled over, facing away from him and nuzzling his ankle.

"Really?" Time rubbed his face. Well, as they say, desperate times call for desperate measures. Time muttered a prayer of, "Please don't bite me," and grabbed his still-warm pillow and used his mature problem solving skills to eradicate the issue at hand in an entirely proportional manner. 

Meaning he lobbed the pillow at Twilight's head.

CHAPTER 6 - A Prayer to the Ones Above

And to catch this story from the beginning...

Heart Made of Glass and Mind of Stone

Majora's Mask: the unwelcome and persistent staple in Time's life. In a mix of fate and single-minded determination, he sets out on a quest to put an end to the evil lurking in the shadows of their land once and for all, with nothing but a wish and a prayer that he and his reckless heart don't lose their mind in the process.

And that's where the band of eccentric travellers comes in.

CHAPTER 1

One of Jonathan Crane's last patients before he began his experiments with fear gas was a young boy, barely out of his toddler years, who'd wake up every night screaming from intense nightmares.

Jonathan could still recognize that boy over a decade later as the boy was wheeled into Arkham Asylum, strapped to a gurney. Danny Fenton shot him a tired grin. "Hey, Doc! You mind if we start holding sessions again? I got a lot more tangible fears I need to work through this time."

Gortash designs and builds mechanisms so I imagine he has to be able to sketch fairly decently in order to sketch his projects and designs. And I'm imagining a pile of charcoal sketches of Durge, done over their entire acquaintance, starting out with sketches of them in battle and then slowly becoming more detailed and intimate and as they do, the titles changing from things like "The Bhaalspawn" and "Bhaal's Chosen at Their Bloody Work" to "The Chosen in Contemplation" and finally just Durge's name

I started playing the stupid mobile game

I’ve been frantically watching all of Adventure Time to prep for Fionna and Cake and it got me thinking. I love how expansive the worldbuilding is. I also love that one artist who genuinely had me believing Finn was gay dating some catboy for a solid 6 months. I think to celebrate the new show a bunch of us should make our own Princess OCs and Goncharov them into the show. Like pretend they were always there. Let’s discuss their imaginary episodes and themes and motifs and whatever

So anyway here are my lesbians they always existed in the show they debuted in season 3 when Marceline went to that recreational fight club. Remember that episode?? Man it was wild

No, I didn't forget about those WIPs, time just moves differently for me. For you, it's been years; for me, it's just been a few seconds, maybe a minute

Big Mama must have lost some serious standing in the yokai underworld because it’s gotten apparent that she keeps being beaten by a small group of teenagers and the occasional rat man, and when it’s not them then she’s taking L’s from her own schemes working against her.

And in the ensuing power vacuum, the Hamatos accidentally become the most feared crime family known to all the big bads of the Hidden City.

After all, they’ve publicly outplayed Big Mama multiple times, a couple of them have taken out the heads of two of the most well known criminal organizations, one took out Heinous Green, two are responsible for the destruction of Witch Town, they have ties to both the infamous Baron Draxum and Captain Piel, they won the Doom Dome death race, they’re Battle Nexus Champions, they’ve displayed insane feats of power and defeated impossibly strong enemies, most of them have been to jail, and they regularly mingle with humans.

You can just imagine the notoriety they’d accumulate from word of mouth alone.

Ah yes, my current obsession.

It’s been like months since i’ve picked up the pencil and draw something decent, but life was (and still is) hectic. During this summer I started playing with Stardew Valley and OH BOI is my brain rotting -

So yeah I wanted to draw the sdv characters for a while now and finally i can present y’all the firs part: the SDV bachelors ✨ They are so fun to draw

My favorite is Sam and Alex, but i seriously love them all.

Also may or may not draw my farmer in my current save

Who is your favorite bachelor in the game?

Clark has had a bad week--a stopped alien invasion, a plot by Luthor involving some kryptonite, being chewed out by Perry, being chewed out by Batman, and now he was at some stupid charity gala that was just an excuse for rich people to show off how rich they are, when his gaze lands on Bruce Wayne.

Wayne has made passes at him before but Clark's ignored them, having very little interest in the rich fop, but right now, he could really use some stress relief and if he can't eat the rich maybe he can fuck them. And despite his reputation for being good in bed, Wayne seems like the kind of guy who probably does the bare minimum in bed but his partners still rave about him bc he's rich and famous, so maybe he and Lois can giggle about his poor skills in bed at work the next day.

So Clark approaches him and he seems quite happy to entertain Clark and later Clark is lying in bed, panting, after several rounds and he's so upset bc goddamn it, Wayne is actually better in bed than the rumors say and it's not fair that's he's rich and handsome and good in bed. He and Lois can't even make fun of this tomorrow, rich people suck

thinking about time lords and their fucked up little society again and i just realized how devastating the revelation of the drums in the end of time is in relation to the master's character.

because of all the renegade time lords in the universe, i think it's the master who most exemplifies the philosophical outlook that the time lords have towards the rest of the universe. they're stuffy observers, administrators, yes - but this position is one they've decided for themselves because of this concept of supremacy over other life forms. imposed and upheld this idea that other species that lack a time sense are less-than, primitive. and the master buys into this hard.

and i mean... compared to the doctor, the master is good at being a time lord. he buys into these supremacist concepts, this idea that every other species (and especially humans) is practically a meaningless ant in the grand scheme of the universe. takes it to the extreme, yes, but its the same underlying principle. he's a good student (despite whatever chibnall might think) - that one time lord from terror of the autons (identity forever a mystery) (its brax) even says "he did receive a higher degree of cosmic science than you." the master could play their game if he wanted to. he's remarkably comfortable with being on gallifrey/the idea of gallifrey(in eot/tlotl) than the doctor ever is. where the doctor avoids the subject of the lord presidency like the plague, the master is like "well if you kill the president you ARE the president! and then you have all of gallifrey!" and when the doctor destroys gallifrey (nominally), the master tries to rebuild it in the sound of drums/last of the time lords. tries to emulate their society. honor them in his little fucked up way. he brings them back from the time war!

and what does he get for it? how did the time lords treat him in response?

they decide to implant the sound of drums in his head, stretching back until he's a child. puts this insufferable noise, this splitting headache, in his head for his entire life. all so that they may live while he dies. because he is diseased, because of them. he has swallowed the pill, bought their propaganda, he has followed the rules, he tried to rebuild them he tried. and in response he is chewed up and spit out like trash so that rassilon's god complex can survive while the universe crumbles.

how crushing must that be to someone? to have your whole worldview - that you are better, you are chosen, you are special - come crumbling down in a few short moments? to see the revered founder-god of the civilization you have so desperately tried to revive look at you and say "you are diseased," even though he was the one to poison you in the first place?

and as his heart is torn to pieces... when rassilon says "no more," and charges his gauntlet, the master - who has spent countless lives fighting death with his bare hands - does not move.

part of me thinks he does not want to.

That viral post that's going around about how people who write "book quality" mlm fic are too "normal" to publish and have real jobs so only "weird" people publish their "shitty" fanfic is so completely out of touch with reality and I am giving a massive side eye to everyone reblogging it.

Not only is it completely, easily verifiably untrue (you cannot enter any professional writing space without tripping over a dozen grizzled scifi writers who got their start by filing off the serial numbers and publishing their Star Trek fanfic even going back decades ago??? it's a whole thing?? plus how can you look at the mlm category on Amazon right now and say with a straight face that people aren't publishing shitty Spirk and Stucky fanfic??? Oh, honey...) it's also the perfect example of this kind of sneering elitism that true artists would never sully themselves by seeking profit, they do it only for the purity of the thing that always somehow leads back to, "no one should be paid to make art, actually."

The only reason you're seeing more published fanfic right now has nothing to do with the idealistic purity of your hypothetical government employee written smut of the past vs the debased scribbles of those awful straights of today and everything to do with the fact that a) self-publishing has created a voracious readership that wants a ton of content so it's become a viable, flexible income stream for many, especially disabled people b) anyone can publish now with self-publishing tools so there are less gatekeepers and c) lockdown got a lot of people into fandom and therefore writing who never tried it before.

And if you really think there's no "shitty" published mlm and no "book-quality" m/f writing out there that started as fanfic, then you are clearly not a reader so why are you even talking about this?
