Something beautiful had happened

[writing-prompt-s]

You were a god of textiles; respected, but generally considered a minor deity. But everything changed when mortals started regularly describing spacetime and reality as a 'fabric'.

Been scribbling a little here and there again and I had to draw Katniss and Peeta, napping in the forest. I adore them.

[melancholywatermelon]

I have three squishy worms for a brain and they just keep doing backflips and rolling in the muck. How am I suppose to Adult under these conditions????

[melancholywatermelon]

[horse-with-wings]

horse-with-wings be out here wishing for popularity while only posting once in a blue moon. Like dude you are a rare winged horse hiding in your stable. Come out and meet ur fans tf.

I did not really wished for being popular. Just wanted pukicho to answer and he did. So there's that.

[horse-with-wings]

Tips for Writing Injuries

✧ Broken ribs suck. You don’t just “walk it off.” Breathing hurts. Laughing hurts. Existing hurts. Characters with rib injuries won’t be doing heroic sprints.

✧ Concussions aren’t instant naps. Dazed vision, nausea, dizziness, maybe even personality changes, but they’re not going to collapse neatly like in the movies.

✧ Blood loss is sneaky. It’s not just about dramatic pools of blood. It’s dizziness, confusion, and the body getting cold as circulation tanks.

✧ Adrenaline lies. Someone can take a serious injury and not feel it until the fight’s over. That “I didn’t realize I was bleeding until later” trope? Very real.

✧ Twisted ankles are brutal. One bad step and suddenly running is off the table. Even walking hurts like hell. Perfect way to ground a chase scene.

✧ Burns linger. Even small burns hurt more than most people expect. Blisters, infection risk, constant pain, it’s not just a cool scar later.

✧ Dislocated shoulders = useless arm. Characters can’t keep swinging a sword or firing a gun. They’re basically fighting one-armed until it’s fixed.

✧ Shock is a thing. Pale skin, trembling, rapid heartbeat, and eventually disorientation. A character might not even realize how bad their wound is.

✧ Stitches aren’t magic. Getting sewn up is painful and recovery takes time. They’re not instantly battle-ready after a needle and thread.

✧ Scars tell stories. Some fade, some don’t. Some stay sensitive forever. Don’t forget the aftermath when the wound becomes part of the character.

Ways to Show a Character is Angry but Trying Not to Show It

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ Their jaw flexes while their smile stays plastered on.

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ Responses get shorter, clipped: "Fine." "Sure." "Whatever."

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ They stop blinking as often, eyes fixed a little too long.

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ Their body gets still, unnaturally still, like every muscle is on lock.

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ They press their tongue to their teeth before answering.

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ They set things down a little too hard, the glass, the pen, the keys. Not enough to break, just enough to say something.

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ They keep asking, "Why would you say that?" but never raise their voice.

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ Their politeness sharpens into something cutting, brittle.

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ They laugh, but it's one note too sharp, too short.

✮ ⋆ ˚｡ The moment they're alone, they let out a breath like they've been holding back an explosion.

Just remember, it is not about money. We have the money. The money would be better spent.

It is about control. It is about class dominance.

Capitalism and the ruling classes are building prisons in swamps.

Zero medical debts and zero tuition debts are real around the world.

MAGA wants more personal debts.

Rebloging for inspiration <3

[woman-becomer]

I know I'm strong, and I know I can handle anything that's thrown at me, but FUCK dude. why are people throwing things at me

[melancholywatermelon]

Curse the sexuals.

Just found out watermelons can also be a symbol for sexual implication. :( :( As an ace I feel betrayed and backstabbed. Watermelon is the sweet escape of all whose days are long and weary, a fruit of safety and warmth. For it to be used this way- its unthinkable.

My fellow aces, I implore you to please, please, help me find out which one of them did it. Whether it be monosexuals, omnisexuals, or even our loving pansexuals... we must put a stop to this at once. Forget invading Denmark, defend watermelons name!!! Justice for watermelon!!!

[melancholywatermelon]

I forgot the word allosexual. Sorry my sexually attracted friends! Curse you still.

[melancholywatermelon]

Self-plagiarism is one of the most stupid concepts ever. Tf you mean I stole my own words?
