hi there, i'm Layalu! :) she/her, 20s, here to post about anything that catches my interest ~
if you're here because you randomly saw me in your notes and want to know who the hell this is, you might have reblogged something with sweet or interesting tags (from here or from my DA or PoE sideblog) and i liked it as a "I Read Your Tags" gesture :)
if you're here to check out my blog (hi!! <3), first of all, i don't mind mass likes/reblogs at all, so go ham! and here's some notes on my tags and blog organisation under the cut:
personal tags:
#lay rambles - personal textpost tag
#lay art - art tag
#lay ocs - general tag for my own ocs
#oc: [first name] - individual character tags
#laya plays games- occasional gaming tag when i remember to use it lol
#[game]posting - might get used when i start liveposting about a game a lot
#saltyposting - inconsistent but i try to tag salty or negative stuff with this (shouldn't be too often though)
oc-related tags:
#lay ocs - general tag for my own ocs
#oc: [first name] - individual character tags
#other ocs - general oc tag
#friend oc: [first name] - individual tag for others' ocs (might get used as just "friend oc" too)
#oc things - on ocs
other common tags:
#art things - on art (includes writing and other forms of art or creative work)
#fandom things - on fandom
#laugh tag - when you need a laugh or smile
#sensible chuckle - puns n stuff
#animals - creachers :)
#people - humanity positivity and/or connection tag
#stories - often in tandem with the people tag, but other stuff goes here too
#nature is wild - cool nature shit
#current events - politics, news and the like
#deutsche dinge - germanposting
#days n dates - "tumblr holidays" and the like
#in the tags - type of posts with questions that ask you to answer in the tags
#misc - catch-all tag
#video games - general / uncategorised viddy game tag
media are usually tagged with a general franchise tag and a more specific tag, e.g. "critical role" and "cr2", or "final fantasy" and "ffx". the exact tags are a bit inconsistent between franchises though oops
i usually only spoiler tag new media, for about a year after their release
tags for triggers and sensitive content:
#partial nudity - bare chest (any gender) and the like but i often forger
#ask to tag - tag for "this may be sensitive in sme way but idk in which direction exactly".
i also try to remember tagging common triggers such as needles, spiders, sh, etc. things will always be tagged with the word only, so only "needles" and "spiders" etc.
I just love love love that there’s a guy wandering about Dungeon Meshi going, ‘but what are the socioeconomic and geopolitical consequences of this fantasy quest adventure, both while it’s ongoing and after its inevitable completion?! The skillset required to find and kill a Mad Mage is different than that required to responsibly, benevolently and effectively rule a kingdom. I personally must either find a good candidate, somehow make one, or, most likely, take on the whole Mageslayer/King role myself.” Except he doesn’t have the first skillset, and his whole party keeps dying while these highly competent chucklefucks wander past, kill and eat the monster, and save their bodies for the nth time. Kabru would demand to know if Aragorn is familiar with Gondorin tax law. His isekai energy is off the charts, because this is all exactly what I would do if dropped into a fantasy quest adventure, right down to repeatedly dying due to not actually being suited to the genre conventions.
