[dalchartheshinymew]

this is the oc rant post 👍part 1

my dAUGHTER this is dalchar, the shiny mew in question, the one in my username yes. this will be entirely self-indulgent ranting be warned

i used to say she started out as a self-insert but tbh that's not really true, it'd be more accurate to say i projected a lot of things onto her, but she became her own character pretty quickly.

okay okay character description let's if i can do this efficiently. dalchar is someone who's so terrified of the world that she only knows how to meet it with aggression and violence, but at the same time she wants to love and be loved in return by the few people that have managed to win her trust. she spent a very long time not viewing herself as an equal person to her friends, which partially blinded her to just how much harm she caused from her habits of lashing out under stress and refusing to receive help, and generally choosing to run away from most problems proverbially or literally. she's never taken accountability a day in her life and has only recently realized that this is in fact a massive problem. the conflict she's facing right now is that in order to become a better person, she has to accept that she's a person in the first place, and being a person means owning up to and actually working to make up for her mistakes. (and that's still very surface-level she has a Lot going on.)

a few notes!

friendly reminder that this is a roleplay character and 90% of the other ocs i mention will not be mine lmao

mew as a legendary pokemon is canonically genderless, obviously. dal's situation is a little bit more complicated since the mew form was gifted to her, rather than her being born/created a mew to begin with. i spent far too long trying to figure out the logistics of this when it came to her gender identity before realizing (after talking with a friend) that i do in fact have free will and can do whatever i want! so officially this lad is transfem and nonbinary, uses exclusively she/her pronoun-wise, and sometimes refers to herself with masc or neutral terms (like me just now calling her a lad instead of a lass). she has not put much thought into this at all and just tends to call herself whatever feels right

sexuality-wise dalchar is biromantic, grayromantic, and asexual. she's had a few canon and non-canon love interests (she also had some WILD game during the youtube roleplay years), but romance is very far from her number one priority. she tends to feel very strongly about her friends in general and has trouble telling what the line between romantic and platonic is. generally the most important people in her life have been ones she's very strongly platonically devoted to

looking back now, if i were conceptualizing her character in the present day i'd probably canonize mental illnesses for her immediately and write her character with those in mind. as it stands, she was created with vague, hand-waved anger issues, trust issues, empathy issues, self-image issues, and various flavors of traumatic flashbacks. at the same time i don't really want to retroactively canonize anything since it just feels weird to me idk. i do feel comfortable saying that she'd probably meet the diagnostic criteria for PTSD and major depressive disorder if she were ever diagnosed by like modern scientists. however i don't consider her "representation" for either disorder.

it's already so long and i'm tired now. part 2 will hopefully be relationships i think

[dalchartheshinymew]

the one problem with my favorite child (OC) is that explaining her backstory takes ten thousand years because my child self was really into the idea of universe-hopping back in the day

and then i have to say the words "she started out in the Little Nightmares universe" and every time i begin to question if i should maybe just bite the bullet and rewrite ancient lore because i'm dying inside a tiny bit

this is a fucking pokemon oc btw. this is a fucking mew.

but it somehow gets even worse when i have to explain that my childhood obsession with the pokemon adventures manga greatly shaped the mew as a character and yes that is the second universe she ended up in yes there are multiple universes stay with me stay with me (and i can feel their attention slipping and i'm empathizing so hard)

and then finally, FINALLY she reaches the universe that her actual story takes place in. and then i have to explain what roleplay is and yes, dalchar canonically had a friendship with toon link from the fucking legend of zelda and beat sans undertale in a fight (and at this point the other person is completely disengaged and i can't blame them at all)

"and she participated in a tournament where this literal child named liebe ripped off her right paw and also technically killed her but i retconned the killing part and she received a cybernetic paw from a scientist who was a snache from battle cats" (i'm basically talking to myself at this point and starting to wonder what makes this character interesting to me in the first place)

and we FINALLY get to the actual starting line, the part where she meets her friends who actually further an overarching plot! and i have to explain no, none of them are mine, no, the plot isn't mine either, my guy kinda just reacts to whatever's happening and often makes shit worse, she has really bad anger issues- and then i realize i haven't explained any of her actual personality at all and i might need to write a new logarithm for explaining this character because i did in fact skip over all the interesting parts, no wonder my audience has completely left the room at this point

so we start again. "this is dalchar, she's technically a shiny mew but she's green because. because i felt like it. and her parents are dialga and palkia and her half-brother is the god of milk" and then i have to once again contemplate my life choices leading up to this moment because not only are dialga and palkia technically not her parents (i said it on autopilot because the logarithm has been outdated for years) but the person who owned the character of her brother isn't even in the roleplay friend group anymore and at this point i'm better off skipping to the part where we spent four IRL years trying to kill the alternate universe version of dal's friend's older sister and i subsequently killed the roleplay by spending another IRL year trying to self-rp dalchar getting therapy

BUT AT THAT POINT I HAVE COMPLETELY SKIPPED OVER DALCHAR'S OTHER FRIEND FUCKING DYING AND MORE IMPORTANTLY,

I HAVEN'T MENTIONED HER SPECIAL POWER EVEN ONCE.

(one of the most important driving forces of her character)

and now the conversation or the bio or the email i'm sending to the one non-roleplay-related-friend who's willing to listen is already longer than this funky tumblr post and i'm sitting there head-in-hands wondering where i went wrong in life that my blorbo requires so much context and unabridged dictionary levels of yapping and then i think maybe she isn't the problem. maybe i just need to calm down and figure out a quicker way to summarize her with a better balance of backstory events versus actual character traits.

and then i never work on it and instead contemplate working on that roleplay timeline that i started three years ago and got three months into before quitting

and finally, instead of doing anything productive, i complain about it on tumblr

hello tumblr

Sick list of symptoms bro. Now try humanizing your behavior instead of pathologizing it.

[sandersstudies]

Pathologizing: Hey sorry I yelled at you. I have this ADHD symptom called RSD that makes me really sensitive.

Humanizing: Hey, I’m sorry that I blew up like that earlier. In the moment I felt really attacked and overwhelmed and I reacted badly, but I know you didn’t mean to offend me with what you said, so that behavior is on me.

[queer-asinfuckyou]

Because I just saw a post bitching about this one, I want to add: this post is saying that you need to take accountability for the way you hurt other people, even if it happens because of a symptom of your disability/illness. It's also saying that using terms (especially acronyms) that aren't common knowledge isn't a helpful way to explain yourself. It is NOT saying that you need to let people walk all over you because "your disability isn't an excuse."

If you're diabetic, you don't have to eat the honey glazed ham that will send you into a coma (their example). But you also can't yell at the person offering it and accuse them of trying to kill you. You can just say "thanks, but my body can't handle that kind of sugar intake, so I'll pass"

Original post by @morallygrayautisticscientist here, this post was so funny I decided to draw it lol.

For those of you who joked about Stratt projecting her period cramps on Grace, I drew that too here.

Wasn't satisfied with my first sketch of KH4 Sora (It was my first time drawing that game specific design), so I had to give it another try.

I have the black box data. All of it.

After sifting through hundreds of photos... I have realized that every time Simon takes a photo in the SM-13, he's pulling up a frame to a stop motion animation.

And it can be played back as video.

So, I took each black box photo and compiled them together. You can now watch Simon's entire journey from the SM-13's camera like found footage.

You can also gain access to Simon's amazing photography portfolio from my master reference project, as well as the video for yourself.

Please, have a watch. It's terrifying. I feel like a C.O.I. lab tech delving into something I really shouldn't, and it's a blast!
