This is just my Tumblr backup but 'kupo, has Tumblr gone to shit now D:
On a side-note, hugely into Final Fantasy 15 as well as other games of that series, same as Tales Of, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Pokemon, Digimon, Dragon Age and so on. Also into Anime, TV Cartoon Shows, Novels/Fantasy, Card/Tabletop/Handheld/Etc Games too~ Trust me if I tried to make a list of EVERYTHING I liked on here it would take forever xD;;
-Kiri Bryan-Siehl
-Kiwi, Kiri, Kii-Chan, Short Nicknames, Etc
-28Yrs and Female
-Pansexual, Demiromantic-Demisexual/She, Her, other Female Pronouns
-Taurus May 16th, Golden Horse 1990, Druid-Celtic Hawthorn Illusionist, Birth Stone Emerald, Lilly of the Valley Birth Flower, Air-Earth Elements, gonna add more later on a full page or something.
-Artist, Writer/RPer, Gamer, Nerd, Fangirl and lover of fictional characters (Especially a certain, tall-ass and built AF Amicitia~ =//w//= )
-RP rules are mainly no one-liners, no abbreviations for words like 'u' for 'you', unless the RP posts are including 'cell-phone text' depending on the character typing, etc. I have a wide umbrella when it comes to accepting anything 'weird or unusual' with anything NSFW or kinks, etc, but some I will never participate in or use. I prefer paragraph form like how stories look in novels, no 'script or chat room' kind of style. Your replies or posts do NOT have to be as long as mine, but be warned I can reply with walls of text sometimes >w>;; If I dont know you, I'd rather get to know you, talk about RP ideas and such before just diving right into it. If there's no planned setting or idea beforehand, it makes it harder for me to reply and such. (And when I ask what kind of RP or theme you might like to do, please give me more than just 'drama' or 'romance' by itself.) I'm sorry if a lot of this might be hard to follow or go by, but it really helps me out with what to do :(
-I prefer to RP on Skype and Discord, if I dont know you, please tell me who you are or what sites I might know you from. Otherwise there's less likely a chance I'll accept the friend invite. I really am a friendly person, but it makes it easier and less awkward for me when accepting requests from complete strangers >>;
-Will add more information later, for now this is about it.
Stop telling people that not everything can go right in their comfort au/fic/daydreams
The real world has enough conflict as it is. Don’t you go bringing down somebody for escaping to a fictional place where they know they and the characters they love can be happy and safe.
It’s ok to want a space like that. It’s a personal thing and no one can take it from you.
It doesn’t have to be molded to be more interesting or entertaining to anyone else because it’s yours and it’s for you.
fandom as a whole is migrating away from a mutual appreciation of a story and towards an endless cycle of nitpicking and discourse and frankly that’s just Exhausting
Its just an endless stream of “you’re doing it wrong”. You’re reading this wrong, you’re appreciating this character wrong, you’re appreciating this character too much, you’re not appreciating this character enough, its not enough that I don’t like this pairing but it’s wrong to like it, you’re enjoying this wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
Yes, please, let’s talk about Hanmetra! It’s such a beautiful ship! It NEEDS to be talked about!! Like, aesthetics alone they are GORGEOUS. Hanzo and Symmetra are a total Queen and King coupling. Their mannerisms are very similar (which quite honestly, at the level which Symmetra and Hanzo portray themselves, I feel like most people would have a difficult time associating with them).
I was SO stoked when I heard their interaction because I’ve felt that they were kindred spirits ever since I discovered their ship (I was so sad to discover they’re not popular, but hey, loving rarepairs is kinda just part of who I am by now, lol).
Just the way they hold the concept of perfection of having such importance in their lives, despite everything around them and their circumstances being far from so, I feel like that’s the one thing they seek, just because of how perfectly UNPERFECT things actually are. Both were pretty much taken advantage of, albeit in different ways, and in Symmetra’s case, probably still being controlled.
If anyone would understand Hanzo and Symmetra, I think it’d be each other. They still feel regret and sorrow but their pride/way of thinking also keeps them from really doing a huge 180 in character or values. They’re turning that 180, but very slowly, one degree at a time. And even then, once they’ve finished turning, they’ll be doing things their way, because they know what’s right for them and refuse to be anyone’s puppet ever again. If they were going to change characters, then I can see it happening if they have the support/friendship of someone who’s been in that same role.
Are these flaws? Yep. Are they flawed? Absolutely, but I honestly think that just makes them more interesting/relatable. And that’s why I love ‘em and I just really would love to see Blizzard have the guts to tackle this relationship, no matter the capacity ❤
She stares at him, half surprised at his audacity and half delighted to know she wasn’t the only one apparently wanting to move their relationship forward.
They may not be the only ones sitting in that bar but she feels like this is their moment. He leans in close, a lazy smirk on his bearded face and eyes shaded by the brim of his hat. He looks so sure of himself, Sombra thinks to herself, like for once, he’s got a leg up on her.
Still, she’s aware that one of his favorite things about her is her playful personality. What good would it do to sit there to blush and giggle at his words? That reaction would please and get him what he wanted…but it wouldn’t be what he needed from her.
So she gives McCree what he needs. Quickly, her fingers wrap around a tuft of his serape, gripping and dragging him further down to her level while her eyes search his. “When I’m done with you, you’re going to be the one who needs saving, vaquero.”
The widening of his eyes and the nervous grin that tugs at the corners of his mouth is all she needs to know he’s very pleased with her response.
Both would definitely be feeling the pressure put upon them since the day the union was agreed upon. Symmetra, in particular, would be taking it especially hard. She’s never taken unexpected (and undesired) changes too well. She becomes secluded and private with her thoughts.
Hanzo’s been bred into this sort of world that he just knows what’s expected of him when he’s brought into this marriage. However, when he meets his bride to be, he can tell that while she’s extremely intelligent, cultured, and gifted, it was more than likely never in her plan to end up in an arrangement like this. The marriage itself isn’t anything special, which while he suspects doesn’t bother him, also doesn’t help to take away from the fact that this is all arranged.
Unfortunately, the Shimada Elders and Vishkar heads decide that their an alliance would be better controlled directly through marriage. Despite the Elders first wanting to give Genji the task of entering a marriage, Hanzo’s father decides it’s the head son’s duty to do what’s best for the clan. Hanzo keeps his personal thoughts on the matter to himself and while he thinks his fiance is beautiful, he knows it’s not enough to warrant any sort of happy, consensual marriage.
The first night, Symmetra locks herself in the bathroom of the suite they’re staying in. At first, Hanzo doesn’t know what to do, let alone feel. He wasn’t too big on the idea of marriage, either. Most women he’s encountered have never understood him and the weight of the responsibilities he bears on his shoulders, despite being born into the world of organized crime. Symmetra, on the other hand, has never considered marriage, but even she believes that it’s something one should choose for themselves. The thought of offering herself to a complete stranger, to produce an heir out of necessity – it’s all overwhelming and she has an anxiety attack.
Hanzo sits outside the bathroom door, looking down at his hands as he hears his wife…this stranger, attempting to recollect herself. He knows not what they’ll do from here on out but he wants to make the best of this. He stands, gently ushering her to open the door.
“Do not worry,” he begins. “I will never touch you.”
He means it. If that is what she doesn’t want, he’ll find a way to explain to the Elders, the ones most eager for an heir within the next year. It takes a good amount of time, but he eventually hears the door unlock. He lets her open it and walk out. She looks exhausted and she stares at him, holding her arms close to her body.
“I know this is strange and different,” Hanzo begins, hoping that his sincerity will show through his lack of comforting vocabulary. “But I will not force you to uphold any expectations Vishkar has placed upon you other than marriage.”
Symmetra listens and only nods after a moment. “This arrangement brings in a new era of order in the world. This is a great honor – I am serving a purpose.” Her sights lower to the floor. “But is there no other way for us to fulfill this outcome?”
“That I do not know.”
“No. I suppose you would not.”
Hanzo looks back to the bed. “I will sleep on the couch. You may take the bed. When we arrive at the estate, I will arrange separate sleeping quarters for you.”
“Thank you.” Symmetra sighs. “I apologize for my behavior. I am…usually more collected than this.”
“I understand. It’s been a long process until today and the resulting reality is of no comfort.” When she nods her agreement, Hanzo continues. “I’ve seen your work, Ms. Vaswani,” he says, graciously using her maiden name. “Despite our predicament, I look forward to discussing your accomplishments with Vishkar and visions for working with the Shimada clan in the near future.”
Symmetra blinks but nods again, her posture relaxing slightly. “That sounds most agreeable, Mr. Shimada.”
Maybe they won’t be comfortable with this marriage within a year. Maybe they won’t ever be comfortable with it. But Hanzo thinks that finding a kindred spirit within the visionary wouldn’t be the worst thing to come of this.
Art reposters will never stop reposting just because the artists point out how much it negatively affects them. They don’t care about that they care about the positive response they get from YOU guys. Stop liking and following instagrams dedicated to mass art posting, I promise you even if it’s credited they aren’t asking permission first. Stop reblogging repost art. Stop turning a blind eye to the people destroying artists’ reach and credit.
yea, this feels especially prevalent on on twitter, i had a couple of my pieces reposted and even a picture of my face. shits absolutely weird
I have plans for B, N, and G of the bottom row, but if you have a request for me that goes with another square (it can be an expanded prompt, a specific whumpee, a whumpee/carer pair, whatever) please shoot me an ask and I’ll see what I can do!
You can find out more about Bad Things Happen Bingo and get your own card here !!!
(Note: If you do send me a prompt, it might take me a little while since I’ve got craziness happening (my dad is the oldest of 12 kids and everyone’s coming for my grandma’s 75th birthday) and two exchanges I’m writing for with deadline on June 10th–but I will get to it!)
But what if half your ocs are softys and not made for fighting?

this post changed the game
Hey btw if you don’t know how to program, you should check out [novelty], which is a free Visual Novel creation software. Absolutely no programming required, and it’s super easy to use, I played with it some when I was a teen but the only reason I didn’t do much with it is cuz I made my story complicated and had like 5000 different branching routes that kept spawning new routes and made myself confused LMAO
But yeah, it’s a WYSIWYG with a really straight-forward GUI, if I remember correctly.
It even comes with some free backgrounds and characters and stuff, and this is what it looks like:
Did I mention it’s super duper free? It hasn’t been updated since 2010, but it has basically all you’d need to make a simple visual novel.
Just make sure your DirectX runtime is updated, cuz it can act buggy if it’s outdated, but this program is so old that I doubt it’d even be an issue lol
holy shit
This is so cool? Can you imagine fanfic in this format?
but what are some sundown towns do y’all know of? like if someone were to do a cross-country trip, what are some towns they should absolutely not go through?
Small towns in south ga and noth fla
Ga: Jonesboro, tifton, Albany, valdosta, Macon
Fla: Gainesville, Perry, Madison, Marianna, Quincy, Jefferson county, hell I wouldn’t stop in Tallahassee either
Texas: Vidor, Orange, Deep Santa Fe
Texas: Jasper & Lumberton
I’m from Albany and recently the police beat up a young brother for no reason. They were attempting to say he had drugs but he of course had nothing.
If you go to Stone Mountain and find yourself on the trails close to night leave because they still have active Klan rallys up there
I was driving through north Florida during the day and I felt uncomfortable
The Negro Motorist Green Book was guide for black folk traveling in the 60s. It’s gives a breakdown of sundown towns. 50 years later, I’m sure it’s still relevant.
I feel like the Deep South is just a gamble.
Ohio…just in general
Central Florida, especially the little towns. If you must stop to pump gas, pay away the pump and get outta there asap
Once you get out of St. Louis county start being careful.
St. Genevieve, MO is definitely a no go for me if I’m traveling south.
If traveling in Louisiana stay away from small town with low speeding zones. If you are to go into those please drive the speed limit and don’t stop for gas. You will get a ticket for tint of your car. If your military I pay you drive the speed limit and don’t have a military tag. Get gas in the daylight.
I’m glad you’re looking out for your bros, at the same time it’s a pathetic look at the country in the 21st century.
Saving this and reblogging for myself and my tumblr fam stay safe love you guys (also check the notes for comments on more cities to avoid)
Ohio: Hartville, Sebring, Salem are all in NE Ohio. Had the worst experience of my life in Hartville.
Mississippi. Just. All of it. Especially if you’re LGBT and a POC.
I want a new Baten Kaitos game like you don’t even understand QnQ Sadly that will probably never happen because almost no one knows the franchise…SIGH.
Thank you, anon, you gave me the perfect opportunity for a post I’ve been meaning to make!
Baten Kaitos is a two-game series of JRPGs for the Nintendo Gamecube. It never really took off to become a hit – a culmination of imperfect timing given the demise of the Gamecube, lack of advertising, and other things – but it’s well-regarded as a cult classic among many, and most people who’ve played the game have excellent things to say. It’s voice acting is certainly… not the best (though I’ve played the game since I was eleven and thus cannot imagine any other voices), but the backgrounds and the overall aesthetic of the games are absolutely stunning. It has absolutelygorgeousvisuals, and the graphicshaveagedprettywell. Baten Kaitos’s gameplay is also unique because the fighting is card–based. While the exact details differ from game to game, the overall fighting premise is that you have a deck of cards you build with healing, attacking, and defending cards – you then use these in battle for their intended purposes. It’s probably my favorite fighting style, honestly, I really like it!
One of the most interesting things about Baten Kaitos, imho, is that YOU, the player, are your own character! In both of the BK games, you are a Guardian Spirit from another world, bonded with the main character (Kalas and Sagi, respectively). You get to choose your own name (and gender in the first game), speak with the main character, and your presence is a plot point in and of itself (one that differs from game to game). It’s really fun!
All this sounds cool and all, Grell, you may say, but what is the game about? I’m glad you asked!
“A long, long time ago it was. Before people began to dwell in the sky. A terrible war was waged between us humans and the wicked god. After a horrendous battle, our ancestors entombed the wicked god, and left the polluted and barren earth to find a future in the sky…”
That is the intro to the first game, Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean, and aptly sums up the backstory. A long time ago, humanity battled against a wicked god, Malpercio – this battle polluted earth, and so five great islands rose up from the ground and into the sky, where humanity now resides. They take floating ships from island to island, and even have their own wings – called ‘Wings of the Heart’, they’re supposed to be a reflection of one’s soul. Each island has its own unique culture and look, but… it seems that one of the islands, Alfard, is trying to unearth the power of Malpercio for itself. You join together with a motley band of heroes to stop them, but perhaps there is more than the Empire to contend with… not all is as it seems…
The second game, Baten Kaitos: Origins, is a prequel to the first game, set about twenty years before. A young boy, Sagi (your spiriter!) is framed for the murder of the Emperor – on the run and with his two companions, Milly and Guillo, he must uncover the purpose and people behind the machinations of the Empire. But something more is at work here than the simple ambitions of man, and it may be related to the strange dreams Sagi has been having, with people he’s never met who know him, somehow…
Both of the BK plots seem straightforward. Save the world by collecting these items. Figure out who is pulling the strings and stop them – but BK is very, very good at plot twists. The plot twist in the first game I never saw coming in a million years, and I was devastated as a child… and it wasn’t even the only plot twist! Nothing is as it seems in the BK verse, and everyone has their secrets. ❤
I want to play, Grell! But I don’t have a Gamecube… Never fear! I’ve got you covered! First things first, download the Dolphin Emulator. Next, here’s the ISO for Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean, and the ISO for Baten Kaitos: Origins. All you have to do is unzip them and then you can play them on your emulator just fine! No Gamecube controller necessary, even – just make sure you set up your controls. I’ve been playing BKO like this for the past week-ish, and it’s been great!
I would love it if you would reblog this, whether you plan on playing the game or not – the fandom here is super small, a thimble and a shoestring, and I would love love LOVE for more people to play this absolutely fantastic game. It’s way too underrated! Thank you for asking, and I really hope you play this and join in the fun!
And if you do play, please send me ask(s) about it. I would love to hear. 🙂
I blame this boss for the feeling of lost sanity. That tongue… it’s so fucking creepy!
And the damn thing can kill you with “Forfeit Your Life” and he took out Mizuti instantly and I was looking at what I was considering as Ursala on acid from Silent Hill, wondering how long it would take Kalas’ Sacred Wine card to make an appearance and I just went…
I’m just going to go grind when I feel less mentally unstable, level like two levels, and then go kill it so I can just bitchslap Geldoblame.
Parnasse is, without a doubt, the tastiest town in all of gaming. Why, you might ask? The entire town is made out of candy. I mentioned the town in a post a few weeks back, and again I’ll say it’s one of the most artistically beautiful places in any game. I’m definitely no art critic, but I know what I like, and this is it. It just looks so whimsical, fantastical and happy, you want to devour it all. Speaking of devouring things, this town features pretty much the greatest prison escape ever, as your party literally eats their way out of jail.
Out of the blue I felt like analyzing wings, so let’s start here! Because Xelha’s are gorg and I love her. I do warn that unless you’ve beaten the game, it’s for the best not to read this just yet.
i really wish more people were into baten kaitos, she sighed, for the thousandth time
the whole canon is great but baten kaitos origins does have the compelling fact that one of the main characters is a snarky rude magic puppet with the wiggliest arms known to man
Hey, it’s not everyday that an RPG villain is elected president of the USA! If we throw magnus cards at Geldotrump, I mean Trumpoblame, I mean Donald Geldoblame Trump, what’s gonna happen?!
“Who are you? And how can a human possibly find this place? Last I heard your kind can’t breathe under water!”
Octomer Noct is a little confused by the concept of scuba divers. It might take him a while to get used to the idea enough to put down his spear, but then he’ll be all over you with questions about the surface!
for @mimi19art‘s octomer AU! 8D I missed your birthday but HAPPY BELATED WOMB EXIT DAY BBY! ;U;
nervous boi but PUT THAT WEAPON DOWN!!!! ur editing is amazing asjhfljaksdbhfsa
Hi guys. This link is pretty important to me – it’s my Patreon page! This is where you can pledge a certain amount of $ a month to help me create a game, and you’ll get rewards in the process!
If you like games about befriending and/or dating monster people, fun stuff, me, or all of the above, I would really appreciate your consideration in becoming a patron. ❤️ Your support would make a world of difference in the progress of my career as well as this fun game you’ll be able to play!
The game will be free to play, so once it’s made and polished up, everyone will have access to it. But in the meantime, why not consider chucking a few bucks in support of dating, let’s say… a spider plant? Yeah. A SPIDER PLANT.
heeey anon, I actually really loved this request! I had a ton of fun writing these headcanons, so I really hope it was worth the ridiculously long wait. thank you so much for your patience; i love you with my whole entire heart ❤
Noctis:
He’s sensitive below his ribs
All it takes is a poke to transform him into a giggling mess
Clutches his sides to protect himself
If he’s lying down, he’ll curl into himself and try to roll away
like a fuckin’ armadillo
When he laughs a lot, his cheeks get really red
His eyes crinkle at the edges
Little gasps for air between fits of laughter and pleas for you to stop
“I give, Y/N! I give! Mercy!”
Comes back with a vengeance, every time
And knows all of your weak spots
Leaps over the sofa, effectively tackling you and taking you to the fucking ground
