Farewell is a hard thing to say

[codes-and-stuffs]

i do think we should normalise being like. platonically enamoured with someone. perhaps i love and admire you dearly and there's nothing romantic about it

[zmeess]

you can't tell me this did not happen at some point at Fjord's bachelor party

[birdplushie]

do people know that you can have romantic feelings for someone and decide it isn't important enough to pursue anything, without it having to be some kind of tragedy? and you can have romantic feelings for someone without wanting them reciprocated? and you can have romantic feelings for someone, even ones that are reciprocated, and still prefer to remain friends instead? and you can have romantic feelings that go away after a while? and you can have romantic feelings that don't result in intense jealousy when the other person has romance with someone else? do people know you can explore these things in fiction sometimes

sorry for not posting in a while i’ve run out of ideas for the moment

Hey artists, C. Spike Trotman, founder of Iron Circus Comics, just posted an invaluable thread on depicting different types of black hair. I’d do the thing where you screencap the whole thread and post it but it’s just too long (which is great because it’s a whole lot of useful information!) Give her a follow while you’re there.

Anyway, go check it out. I just wanted to save it and share it because I didn’t know how much I didn’t know!

This is an amazing resource, not only for artists, but for writers too! I love this!

{ID - tweet from @/Iron_Spike that reads, “Black Hair for Non-Black Artists: a Cheat Sheet Thread. Hi, folks! Just spur-of-the-moment decided to put together some reference for folks who want to draw/model black characters in their work, but arent confident they won’t make simple, obvious mistakes w/r/t black hair. END ID}

I noticed in the comments that some people can’t see the thread, so I took screenshots for y'all!

More will come in reblogs, since tumblr has an image limit

The tragedy of Marinette Dupain Cheng is that being ladybug is extremely bad for her precisely because she’s so good at it

Miraculous Ladybug is about what if you gave a girl with extreme anxiety the superhuman capability to actually prepare for every scenario of What Could Go Wrong

[torchwood-99]

"I love you but you're doing wrong in a way I cannot condone" and "I hate you but you're being wronged in a way I cannot stomach" are top tier and I need more of them.

It just annoys me to death how so many parallels were set up between the wyll/ulder and ansur/balduran situations to the point where it absolutely had to be intentional and then the game just goes sikeeeee and it never comes up again? Because it's like, oh cool, this is clearly set up as a mirror for wyll to examine his own situation and to influence his opinion on it.

Which is great! Let's get him percolating on how to weigh a close personal relationship against the lives of the people in Baldur's Gate, because that's where he's going next. See, by act three, the roles of ulder and wyll have reversed. Now ulder is the one potentially under the thrall of a malign influence, now ulder is the one who might be a threat to the city because of it, and now wyll is the one who has to decide what to do. To choose between his father and his city. To decide what risk to the everyday ordinary citizens of Baldur's Gate is worth it.

And then he doesn't and actually that's not the plot at all. Oops.
