I'm still obsessed with the idea that Vellioth and Astarion look eerily similar and that's why Cazador is more obsessed with Astarion than the other spawn.
does anyone else ever think about how the way new languages developed from one another was people spelling/pronouncing things differently enough over a period of time that it was completely distinct from another language. Like we have so many languages because people made spelling errors and ran with it
i just fucking rediscovered the movie that was my monsterfucker awakening???? like damn little me was onto something because the tall skinny nervous dude archetype still fondles my brain TO THIS DAY
(the movie is Strange Magic (2015) btw and I just watched it for the second time in my life because I only ever saw it when it was first in theaters and then proceeded to forget it existed)
chat i think i just had the most depressing single-person touch-starved thought ever: making/buying cosplays of characters you're attracted to to feel like you stole their clothes
the subnautica brainrot is getting me
reblogging this because im totally gonna use this for my subnautica fic (when i continue writing it. i swear i'll keep going at some point just rn my focus is on more terrestial, fantastical men)
every moment of every day i am thinking about this tiktok
i want a vr headset for one reason and one reason alone.
to play Subnautica in VR and hook myself up to a heartrate monitor
I got to the part in The Martian where he does all the rover modifications and the mental image of it just bewitched me to the point I had to draw it.
this took me like 5 minutes or less btw so for a quick doodle i think its pretty good
is it normal to have 2 oc's that are just like alternate versions of eachother but they were both born from the same thing? like basically identical.
the best example of this (other than mine) that i can think of is beta Xiao and ingame Xiao and i remember before Xiao was called Atlus in game some fics called beta Xiao Atlus and he was a diiiiiick. Like still prettyboy but an asshole but the main reason im saying this is bc i cemented the lastname for one of my oc's recently and that really diferientiated him between his beta and his current.
Viktor Sweeney was the original and inspired by this cunty vampire i made in a picrew on a whim and went "shit hes actually really hot" so i give him a whole personality and hes a DICK which was the intention because ooo hot sexy vampire. Main difference (other than personality) is that og Viktor was the son of irish imigrants who came to the US in the early 1900's and was very 20's-30's styled. he also lived in the great lakes area which i cant explain why but it just feels right to place him there
and now hes Viktor Soulier (shoutout to my pookie wookie who came up w his lastname <333) and hes just. wet. like a sopping wet cat who got stuck in the shower and accepted their fate. He's also France and has an actual partner instead of just a random y/n situation?? and they have lore??? Cecil doesnt really have a beta version though so fuck them rn
but like is divergent evolution oc's a thing that happens to anybody else???
i just got the data entry for Hope and oh my god?????? i love Alan he's so so so so silly silly oh my god Maybe its the dynamic of one character is disgustingly human with their emotions and to the other human emotions and stuff like that are a foreign concept that just tickles me the right way i dunno but theyre just my favorite
the way that robin goes from kind of hating Alan for getting in her head to slowly as you discover more and more artifacts to thanking him for telling her about them and encouraging him that he can find the rest of his network is beautiful.
also the fact that he thinks hope must be a bird because of the way the Emily Dickinson poem describes it means he must have never known hope before. Robin literally taught him what hope is. She gave him hope for the first time in god knows how long and even in his analytical literal-mindedness he understands that hope is something he needs to take care of and keep safe
its just a beautiful dynamic because again Robin is driven by human emotion shes on 4546B to find out what happened to Sam, she does this reckless thing based solely on her feelings, and Alan is the exact opposite. He only knows logic and rules and emotion gets in the way
AND AND AND the parallels between Robin losing Sam and Alan losing his connection to his network is beautiful because that means they have something in common, a link that they can work through to explain to one another
its just beautiful writing and im probably reading into it way too much but thats my fucking job
one of my favorite youtubers (miniminuteman) made a video on vampire burials and im so fucking im im im im *vibrates*
he mentions so much stuff that most people dont even think/know about like coins in mouths and being buried upside down and the common connections between disease outbreaks and vampire hysteria
i literally fucking love vampires so much im so autistic and my hyperfixation oh lord oh boy oh me oh my oh gosh golly darn boy do i love vampires
