I gave Nayeon (my necromancer tiefling) a change of wardrobe. No more raggedy clothes for you, miss! Nayeon is possibly the character I have connected the most to. I created her on a whim, wrote her background in 30 minutes, and it’s been an innuendo of absolute, mesmerizing love ever since. Her personality is usually very blunt and polarizing: people either love her or hate her, but that’s because she is someone who is honest to a fault, perceives life in black of white, makes very little room for any form of middle ground and compromise, and believes that the end always, always justifies the means. The latter is especially true when it comes to religion: as a devoted follower of Asmodeus, with whom she has an intense and, under certain aspects, starkly codependent relationship of absolute faith, abnegation and blind worship. She is canonically very uninterested about her looks, doesn’t value material goods (except for her pendant and books), nor cares about clothes, so much so that her usual attire consists of layered, shapeless pieces of black clothing, which she has been wearing for so many years that they are full of tears, holes and rips.  Nevertheless, I wanted to give her a makeover, so here’s a little sketch of Nay Nay in her brand new outfit <3

No, it's not cringy it's fucking genius.

Tumblr staff understands its fucking userbase in a way Elon Musk will never understand Twitter.

Beating a dead horse into the ground is a supernatural reference.

Oh my god.

It's so fucking good.

This is just good.

This is speaking the language fluently.

Twitter is not fucking prepared.

I love and hate you all.

Be happy and DIE.

Concerning the Twitter crash and burn, there's legit people encouraging others not to engage with creators trying to promote things so that Tumblr doesn't become commercialized, and I have to make something very clear:

A small creator who is encouraging people to interact with/share their stuff, trying to make their art/writing/etc known because they want a livable wage when they have NOWHERE ELSE they can turn to anymore and are trying to succeed in an internet that makes it near impossible for them is -never- gonna be the same thing as a celebrity shoving adds into your face to buy their newest clothing brand.

Don't encourage capitalism but do encourage the artists and writers that provide you most of their content for FREE and just want to pay bills like anyone else and already deal with being buried in the algorithm or having their art stolen and reposted.

We don't want adds or for this site to be monetized either, I assure you.

There's lots of talk out there about working through trauma via dark fanfiction. I'm not saying anything against that - there's nothing wrong with it. But I do think there's an unfortunate implication being made in a lot of those posts. Accidentally or not, the implication being made is that trauma is the reason people enjoy dark content. That there needs to be a justification at all.

Guys, trauma is not the only reason to enjoy dead dove do not eat content. You don't need trauma to justify liking it. You don't need anything to justify liking it. You can just...like it. I get the point of those posts is to stop people from harping on others when they might be digging into said trauma, or harassing others for their coping methods, which is definitely wrong - but let's be clear in our intent and not alienate people that are just here for the fun of it. Let's not make people think they need a reason to enjoy what they do.

You don't need trauma to justify liking dark things. You can just like it and if that's all there is to it, that's perfectly okay.

horror movies, serial killer documentaries, splatterhouse-type games, etc - these are billion-dollar industries

there is a real, valid, profitable part of the human psyche that loves dark shit when it’s in a situation we can control

what do you think is the appeal of roller coasters? danger, controlled

i don’t give one single solitary shit what your particular dark fic itch is. seriously, i don’t care. it doesn’t matter. yes, even whatever super gross objectionable thing you just thought of - it literally doesn’t matter. unless real, live, non-hypothetical people are hurt in the making of a thing, that’s just how humans be. sometimes we gaze into the abyss, to see if we can handle it when the abyss gazes back.

[baixueagain]

it’s called catharsis, something that humans have understood since the ancient Greeks at the very least, and certain people on this website need to fuckin’ look that shit up
