me: aaah that makes much more sense now!

[robo-dino-puppy]

yooooo thanks for the tag @singingkestrel!

1. ride or die ship (your otp): I'm actually not really a shipper in Horizon - I saw a lot of myself (ace and uninterested in romantic relationships) in Aloy and never felt the need to ship her with anyone, but the one ship that stuck out to me from acting/dialogue choices when I was playing HZD was Ereloy. so if I had to pick, it’d be that one :)

2. most annoying ship: nah, I don't play that game. I do have to say @finrays' answer to this is perfection.

3. second favourite ship: it's probably a tie between Aloy/Talanah and Aloy/Ikrie. I really loved the interaction between Aloy and Talanah in HZD, and Talanah’s story in HFW was... unsatisfying, to say the least. there was so much possibility there and we just *zhooop* right past it to... what we got. and I adore Ikrie to bits. I want more of her (and everyone else from the frozen wilds)!!!

4. favourite platonic relationship: Varl and Aloy TT_TT but. well. we won't go there. (at least for another few questions)

5. underrated ship: hmmm, since I don't so much get into the shipping side of fandom myself I'm not sure what's underrated... but I really wanted to know more about Ikkotah and Chekkata!

6. overrated ship: see no. 2. <- left that there from @singingkestrel :D

7. one thing i would change in canon: one thing? hahahahaha. ok ok no if I had to pick only one thing, it would be Varl's death. because as far as I can see it had no narrative purpose. it wasn't an Agent Coulson moment. it changed nothing. it wasn't for anything other than the shock of seeing a character die, and that's... lazy and terrible. you can do so much better, Horizon writers! so either 1) he's severely injured, maybe sidelined for the rest of the game, but doesn't die (obvs my choice) or 2) he dies but it actually has some hefty narrative impact. not just a single conversation after the fact. something that requires other characters to make some drastic changes.

8. something canon did right: I could just copy @singingkestrel's answer here too lol but I'll say that I feel the best story moments are when Aloy & co. are discovering the horrors or beauty of the Old World. because so many things in Horizon's past are frighteningly close to/already real in our own current world, and to see that from a future, post-apocalyptic perspective is... humbling. (and terrifying, because I'm not sure we as a species are equipped to pull ourselves back from the path we're on.) POSEIDON and Las Vegas in HFW, the aerial captures, the datapoints in Ron's bunker in burning shores, the vantage points in HZD, MONTANA RECREATIONS! and Enjuk, Concrete Beach Party in the frozen wilds... these all really hit right in the feels for me.

9. a thing i'm proud of creating for the fandom PLEASE BRAG ABOUT YOURSELF I WANT TO SEE/READ YOUR ART: as far as Horizon is concerned I'm just a virtual photographer, but I probably put the most work into my face(paint)s series. and the armor gallery!

10. a character who is perfect to me (wouldn't change a thing): Gildun. sorry lol that's probably an easy answer, but I just love his quests. they're perfect. I love how Aloy interacts with him. I love his optimism, even if it's to the point of self-delusion. I love that he talks with GAIA now. he's a perfect cinnamon roll. protect at all costs.

11. the character i relate to the most and why: ooof this is a hard one. I love all the characters but I'm not sure I'd say I relate to many of them. except maybe... hahaha I think I'll have to say Teb. washed out as a brave and now he sews things. I could see that being me XD

12. character(-s) i hate the most and why: well. there are a lot of easy answers here (fucking Ted. Londra - whose VA does such a good job with over-the-top villians it’s fun to hate him. the CEO. and then not quite the same level of hate but definitely a level of ew - Resh, Lansra, Rheng, Tekotteh...) but I kind of hate that we didn't get to hate Regalla. How can you hire Angela Bassett and then not use her incredible talent for so much of the game!?!? I shudder to think how many players never talked to her before the final battle, either because they didn't spare her or because she was easy to miss, being stuck in the basement and all. I wouldn’t say I actually want to hate her, but it’s criminal that we got so little of her.

13. something i've learned from the fandom: hmmm - how to use discord? lol. I've always been more of a lurker, but there are so many extraordinarily kind, talented people in this fandom that it inspired me to actually *gasp* reach out and ask to join a group (quite the rarity for me). thank you @foibles-fables and the Everybody Loves Aloy server! (and before that, Em with virtual photography!) I feel like I'm still pretty lurk-y but I definitely enjoy my time there :D (link to Foibs’ post about the server if you haven’t seen it!)

14. three tags i seek out on ao3: it seems like I really have to be in the right headspace for fic, and apparently Horizon does not inspire that headspace for me. *hides* I'm sorry fic-writers, I know so many of you are incredible!

15. a song i strongly associate with my otp/favourite character: it's extremely rare for this to happen to me in any fandom - I just don't really connect with music the way other people seem to (which is funny, considering I was in band all throughout my non-university schooling). but Horizon has a lot of excellent music, so I'll tell you my favorite track: white falls from the frozen wilds. specifically the flute motif. my god. it gives me chills.

tagging: I know I've seen this around a few times, so sorry if I tag you and you've already done it! and obvs no pressure if you don't wanna! @inomakani @forbiddenwestern @melikochan @kiddraws12 @little-box-of-wonders @ma-i-d @pinetreetea (and if anyone else wants to join in I think you should!)

Could you elaborate on the daddy line in AIW pleaseeee. I always thought it meant his father lmao

Hold on, so you mean you (saw this video, long or short, and) read these lyrics:

Answer the phone "Harry, you're no good alone Why are you sittin' at home on the floor? What kind of pills are you on?" Ringin' the bell And nobody's comin' to help Your daddy lives by himself He just wants to know that you're well, oh

...and you thought, wow, that Des Styles is really plugged into his son's life way more than his mom or sister, the blood relatives he's usually constantly with and would make more sense to ref if it was THAT kind of reference?

Given the whole vibes of the song, which read major split, presumably from his "daddy," I'm not sure how anyone's getting Des, and would nearly 30YO Harry really call Des "daddy"? Why not just say "dad" if that's the case?? Like, literally dad would make more sense as a word choice if that's the person he means, and yet

Well i won't complain about nando's late subtitutions anymore

[jwood718]

Um - whut?

Being ungenerous here, this seems like the kind of proselytizing the Middle East doesn't need.

"Fuck off and let people be."

Why is no one talking about Sunoo asmr with aloe on M2?! His pretty hands covered in the shiny aloe gloss, ugh and the noises that it was making😩 I don't know if it was just me but my mind was not soothed at that part

Like you can't tell me he didn't know what he was doing! He knew exactly what he was doing!

(Was wondering if you could turn this into something:))

Sunoo playing with his gf’s 🐱? (Not the emoji 💀)

Dang, never saw this video but my mind’s going wild with those pictures…

Like sorry not sorry if this isn’t what you had in mind but you can’t tell me this boy’s bad at fingering 😔 Literally did talk about it before but his fingers are so pretty…

Don’t tell me this boy wouldn’t come back to his girlfriend absolutely turned on after this, a malicious smile on his face as he makes his way over her, telling her he wants to try something. Bonus points if she’s a virgin…

He’d definitely tells you about this bio sticky lub 100% good for the coochie and smoothly laid you on your back as he gently and sneakily kiss your way down the bedroom. Sunoo would make those sounds as if he’s the one being on the receiving side of sweet ministrations, his eyes shining with delight and his smile stretching his face at the mere idea of how pliant you are for him - like what did he do to deserve someone as kind and nice as you, even outside the bedroom?

This boy would definitely moan and complain about the fact that he has to put this on his fingers even if he doesn’t mind it one bit because he just wants you to do it for him. He wants to see you looking up at him with those pretty eyes, eyebrows furrowed as your focusing on the task at hand: coating his fingers with the lub. And he bites back another moan because you’re so damn pretty and sexy while doing it - not that you’re even trying. And of course, now that he can’t you have to undress yourself for him - he’s on the verge of passing at this point.

Sunoo would tease you for a bit before he finally touches you when you want him the most. He’d kiss your face, nudge your neck and shoulders with his pretty nose and massage your ear with his other hand - that’s how he learned that it was an erogenous part of your body, now he’s addicted to the way you gasp when your face is reddening and your thighs closing on his hips. Now that he knows that, he’s relentless - it is not something you would have expected from Sunoo of all boys in his group but here you are, falling apart because he’s fucking your damn ear?

His other hand, shining and sticky, teases your cunt. But it’s just a fleeting touch, the ghost of his fingers flicking you’re clit, making the muscles in your lower stomach tighten every time you feel him there. He knows what he’s doing as he finally slowly and sensually draw circles your clit. The contrast between his cold finger and the heat burning in your makes you stir and whine, and he enjoys every bit of it. This sweet boy would gently brings you to your orgasm with only one long sticky finger playing and stroking your private parts; this would boost his ego and he would definitely think about it for AGES.

Yes ok Essek Hotboi and absolutely Astrid Bitterness Becke but listen, far more important than either of those things: HOW THE FUCK DOES THE CHASTITY NOOK SMUT SHOP OWNER BECOME FUCKING PENPALS WITH YUSSA ERRENIS?!?

[alienssstufff]

People associate being a ‘good artist’ with understanding theory and skill level , which is true absolutely. Though as advice from someone who has done art for a long time, no matter what reason you make art for, having a healthy attitude towards yours and other people’s art will help you go the extra mile (or kilometre.. idk). Being able to view other’s pieces in a way that is inspiring (WITHOUT putting yourself down) and allowing yourself to improve are included in this.

If these were old C clamps, a little rusty maybe, somehow unusable, then I could see perhaps crafting a set of hooks out of them so that they remain usable--but the C clamps in this photo look brand-damn new:

Which, to my mind, is a waste of perfectly good clamps.

Friend of mine once said clamps are always good for birthday presents ‘cause you can’t have too many.
