Obsessed with how Sanji spent two episodes completely oblivious to everything that was happening, made himself at home in a creepy house in the woods, got his ass beat by a couple of animals, rage-baited the big bad, and then had a smoke break. My guy did not have the group's allotted brain cell that day, but he really did his best.
And he looked so fine while doing it all

Starting to think a cooler headcanon for Clarkās upbringing might just be that the entire town of Smallville collectively decided to just go with it and accept that Martha and John's kid has superpowers, but we don't talk about it.
Someone's tractor gets stuck and nothing can get it out? "Be a dear and run down to the Kents, would you? Ask for Clark?"
"Why Clark, we need a machine--"
"Run along now."
Or if he kicks too hard and the football vanishes into the upper stratosphere, no it didn't, we all collectively saw it land over there *vague hand movements*
I would know him in death, at the end of the world.
Drawing Achilles and Patroclus again is very good for my soul.
I've been struggling to draw lately, tried to wrench out of it with a Jonathan
if I did a Dracula adaptation then one thing I would do is have an establishing shot of Arthur Holmwood, Jack Seward, and Quincey Morris being like. comedically in-sync right before they get do their three proposals. Iām talking they flip down one singular newspaper to reveal 3 faces, turning heads at the same time kind of in-sync. I need them to ĆØ established as a Trio immediately.
I'm beginning to realize that Dracula is just as much a horror story for Dracula as it is for the others.
Happy Lizard Fashion Day to those who celebrate.
Actual things that happen in the 1897 Dracula novel, without context:
A character has ominous nightmares and attributes them to eating too much paprika
Dracula first appears wearing a fake beard
The person he was trying to fool with the fake beard immediately realizes Dracula and Beard Guy are the same man, due to both having really firm handshakes
We are told parrots are immortal unless fatally wounded
A Texan cowboy opens fire on a bat flitting around a window, and lodges a bullet in the wall of an occupied room
A woman is called a polyandrist for receiving blood transfusions from multiple men
An incorrectly addressed telegram leads to two deaths, multiple druggings, and several children being assaulted
Dracula, while trying to maintain a low profile, takes a lovely trip to the zoo and freaks out the animals so badly that he gets mentioned in a newspaper article
The one character who knows anything about vampires spends a good two-thirds of the book refusing to talk about vampires
Dracula went to Satan's Witchcraft Academy and somehow this is only brought up in two throwaway lines
A character gets stuck inside a circle of communion wafer crumbs
A major plot point of the book is Dracula (who was said to be a brilliant scholar and has the strength of twenty mortal men) realizing he can move boxes without human help
Someone is referred to as "manifestly a prig of the first water"
Two characters have a hobby of reading train schedules
A hospital lets a mental patient escape to see what will happen
A character starts vomiting up feathers from eating whole birds
A doctor refuses to give a medical diagnosis and instead makes a speech about growing corn
Dracula impersonates another character just by wearing the same clothes, despite being taller and visibly much older. This deception is successful.
A character "cleans" a room by eating all the insects in it
Suddenly: rats. Thousands of them.
The heroes progress in their efforts through "the wonderful power of money," i.e., bribery
Dracula has three other vampires in his castle. Their relation to him is never explained, nor are any of them named.
A character insists his salvation depends on having a pet cat
Dracula is thwarted by flowers on more than one occasion
A group of vampires stand in the hall outside a man's bedroom, talking loudly about their plans to eat him. When he comes to the door to confront them, they run away laughing
Dracula wears an unfashionable hat and gets roasted for it
A group of Romanians encounter a disheveled, shouting man and, "seeing from his violent demeanour that he was English, they [give] him a ticket for the furthest station on the way thither that the train reached."
A boat crashes due to Dracula having the munchies
A wolf is thrown through a window and immediately runs off, confused and covered in glass
Dracula makes a bed
At this point if they actually wanted to make a unique retelling of Dracula, they should have Quincey as the main character, market it as a tragic Western/British romance, and then halfway through drop us into the plot of Dracula
Happy annual Dracula Paprika Discourse Day to those who celebrate!
here I tried to combine digital with watercolor
hi im a moot from twitter im shy to say this but i miss you š
Oh hi! Sorry Iām not very active on there anymoreā¦ or anywhere tbh. Real life has become very busy š« hoping the new year will free me. Hope youāre doing well though?
Ooold Aziraphale animations compilation! I donāt know if Iāll ever finish it someday so Iām just posting it as it is for now!
(I got asked many times if it was AI when I posted it on insta, it is not! Everything was hand drawn in Clip Studio Paint)
A bit late, but Happy 10th Anniversary to Race to the Edge!
I like to think the concept of Mobei Jun enjoying Shang Qinghuaās verbal rants ISNāT because MBJ isnāt thinking anything himself but is in fact Overthinking Everything. This man has been under constant threat from nearby sources his entire life. Itās probably pretty nice to hear this little hamster man beside him say all of his worries out loud and others that maybe he hadnāt considered yet and then Immediately find a way to counteract them.
Like first of all, the beautiful feeling of someone else ALSO being like āokay well maybe the fucking chandelier has been sabotaged to fall at the exact right time, has anyone planned for that??ā because MBJās been thinking it but one must also consider the optics of being a demon going around just attacking light sources, especially since heās already destroyed three of them today, and being seen as afraid in general is Not a Great Look for survival and maintaining power.
But then SQH KEEPS talking and itās all āand maybe it will explode in a poisonous gas that thereās only one antidote for god itās a good thing cucumber-bro remembered that plotline and we were able to grab the Special Antidote Plant before this became a fucking issue for me to deal with on top of seating arrangementsā and MBJ hadnāt even considered the poisonous gas angle yet but thatās what he keeps this human around for. Validation and immediate escalation all tied up with Results. You canāt even say SQH is hyper cautious either because literally every time he starts mumbling about some insanely complicated potential sabotage it happens like five minutes later.
If ANY of yall EVER do this shit to me, im deleting every single fic out of spite.
If I ever catch one of yall doing this to another author and I know youre a follower of my work I will block you personally on every platform
None of yall are the fic police. I DESPISE genai. I think its an insult to art, humanity, and the planet itself. But aint not a single fucking person here qualified to pick apart a strangers fic looking for a gotcha moment to make yourselves feel superior. If you think something is ai you can ask the author (most are proud of the ai use and will just tell you straight up) if they say yes you have your answer and can warn people. If they say no and you dont believe them you block and quietly keep it between you and maybe a close group of friends. Spreading misinformation is DANGEROUS. And NONE of you doing this shit are anywhere near qualified to do it.
THIS GOES DOUBLY FOR ARTISTS.
Posting this here from my main too bc I feel that strongly about it
You dont get to witch hunt and scour peoples work just frothing at the mouth hoping someone messes up so you can publicly humiliate and gang up on them. Fuck genai and every single poser and lover that uses it but if you are not 1000000000% certain that something is made with it you shut. the. fuck. up.
Pathetic loser behavior on display here
I'm about to get mean because this shit? this pisses me all the way off.
"hurr durr these very common writing practices are SUPER OBVIOUS AI TELLS!!!!!!!!!! obviously this is an AI invention and not the result of AI being trained on THOUSANDS OF REAL FUCKING STORIES!!!!!!! we're all very intelligent!!!!!!!"
I hate yall. I hate yall for fucking ruining fanfic with your goddamn motherfucking AI obsession. "ooh there's em dashes!" YEAH REAL WRITERS USE THOSE. "there's long paragraphs!" YEAH BECAUSE THATS HOW PEOPLE WRITE STORIES.
we're not "writing like AI" - AI is writing like us, because it fucking stole from us in the first fucking place.
I've never used AI in my work, not ever, but guess what, my fics are ALL written like that. long paragraphs, long sentences, em dashes and hyphens and other grammatical tools, because I fucking know HOW TO WRITE.
quite frankly, if you think these things are "genAI inventions" you're just telling the world that YOU DON'T READ ENOUGH.
And you don't put spaces around em dashes???
Right???? Like, tell me you don't read books or know English grammar rules without telling me you don't read books or know English grammar rules and are trying to use it as a gotcha for people who do know what they're doing.
Fuck outta here.
(Also, yes, you'll see spaces around em dashes in journalism, but for fiction and academia, it is the expected norm to not have spaces. Some people add spaces out of personal preference, but the expected norm in fiction is no spaces.
Now, if you're using an en dash, those should have spaces, but em dashes and en dashes are not the same thing!)
i remember seeing someone confidently claiming that the word "delve" was unique to llms, and my friend, you have clearly never played old-school RPGs or you'd have read grimtooth's traps at least once and you would not say that shit.
seriously, remember this: llms are trained on text that was, for the most part, written by humans. everything they're doing with em dashes or whatever is something they're doing because humans did it often enough for them to learn it.
