Please note: I will be mirroring information we have posted from the /r/FFXV Reddit should anything further be released over the weekend as I am taking part in the Extra Life streaming marathon for charity as part of Team Chocobros, but specifically from the FFXV Reddit.
I’ll be posting more about the Extra Life stream later on.
I have but it was mostly just outta fun and my love for my two favs 😀
this is my favorite rendition of them i’ve had done:
I don’t really do much with them anymore but designing them was a lot of fun! And they did interact with both McCree and Sombra! That’s a big part of creating fan-characters, no? 😀
Whether she meant for him to know or not, McCree learns that the hacker is more than a shadow.
One of the best damn things about Mexico for McCree, aside from not feeling so entirely out of place when he wore his hat, boots, and serape, was how warm it stayed. Even nearing winter, most of the country remained a comfortable temperature, something a more heat-suited man like him could appreciate.
Today, the surprising amount of people walking the streets added to that warmth. Halloween just passed and he saw more than a few skeletons and skulls decorating pottery, jewelry, and food on vendors’ tables but all the vibrant colors and flowers didn’t really shout ‘spooky’ to him. He’d only been in Mexico a few times prior to the previous year, so he knew maybe he’d ought to have known more about what was going on but couldn’t seem to recall.
As he walked down the main plaza and continued on to a side street that would lead him to his destination, McCree bumped into the person he’d been on his way to visit.
I’m sorry but it’s really annoying to see this keep happening on my dash. For those who don’t know,Pixiv is considering shutting down access to western users.
Why?
Because of edits and reposts onto social media sights, such as Tumblr, Facebook, even Twitter. The problem has been here for the past months and I really just get sad seeing everyone reblog edits and reposts of art that’sUNSOURCED.
I’m sorry if I seem bitchy, but this is a critical issue, because not only would this cut off fandom posters, it cuts off any person in the US from accessing Pixiv.
Pixiv artists are already deleting their works and accounts, more and more artists are deleting everything because of this. I have alreadymade a post about this on my main, and so havetwo ofmy friends. You may say we’re throwing a big deal about this, but the thing is- we’re just trying to make sure that us fans and future fans have the art resources.
Things to know:
ZEROCHAN AND WEHEARTIT ARE NOT SOURCES.
I REPEAT. ZEROCHAN AND WEHEARTIT ARE NOT SOURCES.
If you really absolutely don’t know, try the Google Images source thing.
If you ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO REPOST THEIR WORK, ASK THEM FIRST! It won’t hurt you to be polite, and even if they don’t understand english they probably will understand what you’re saying.
I find this very relevant to this blog so I hope you’ll allow me to give another PSA.
I see this happen on my dash sometimes and I’m not gonna lie, I did consider unfollowing the people that reblog unsourced fanarts. Especially more so on those so-called one piece confessions/dirty op confessions whatever. It’s getting ridiculous.
However, it’s my belief that every one of you are wonderful people who respects others, especially those who have worked hard in drawing and writing all the wonderful doujins and fanarts. So I hope I can raise some more awareness to this.
As usual I’m going to illustrate it in an easy way. (read right to left)
What supposed to happen:
What you’re doing when you don’t source:
What you’re making the artist do:
Every artist grow by displaying their work and getting critique. But when their work is spread around without any credit to the artist, AND EVEN MAKES THE OWN ARTIST DELETE IT FROM HIS/HER SITE it lost the purpose and meaning.
What you should do from now on (if you haven’t been doing so):
yeah technically its not oc-tober anymore but im still gonna finish the list
symmetric tool in clip is good stuff id say it again 😮
did I ever mentioned I changed her name to Dazzle? “Dashing “ will just be a code name/title she earned among public for her speedy teleportation ability.
90% of steam punk dress I found id throw it on her
Kaela was struct by lightning at a young age leaving strange scars 70% covering her body, she is pretty much sensitive of what people think about it so she wears fish net/dark shade of transparent tights? when she needs for jogging/work out, its just her favorite match of wearing she has bad sense of clothing fashion.
also most of the time I dont draw the scars under cause its just a sense you arent that paying attention to it(im lazy)
I’m daydreaming we’re trying to binge watch a tv series on Netflix, but you keep kissing my neck and after a few weak attempts to stop you, I pin you down on the couch and kiss you deeply.
I’m not so sure she’d be too happy! She seems like the type of gal to know what she wants and if that picture she hung onto and her reaction in that after-cinematic short was anything to go by, I think she’s still hung up on him, though maybe she’s hung up on a version of McCree that no longer exists – not the way she remembers.
Though I bet if she were to see they were an item, Ashe would just be so unimpressed after seeing Sombra, like “Really? Really, McCree? Even after makin’ friends with them big shot heroes and singin’ kumbaya, seems like ya still ain’t changed one goddamn bit.”
And she’s talking about his apparent affinity for the lawless. XD Though now I can’t unsee Ashe bad mouthing McCree in an attempt to make herself feel better. Poor Ashe!
(These are going to be short notes mainly for myself and not a full analysis.)
2:24
Ashe: …Jesse McCree. Been awhile. You promised you’d write.
McCree: Well, Ashe…I’ve been kinda busy.
Ashe: We’re pretty busy ourselves, so it’s awful convenient you showin’ up today.
McCree: …Yeah, you’ve never been one to shy away from a good tip.
Ashe: Hey! We worked hard for this score! You best move on now.
McCree: Hmmph. All I want is (gestures) that crate. Everything else is yours.
Ashe: This crate? (taps Echo’s case with her rifle) Huh… B.O.B.
(B.O.B. opens the crate. Ashe sees “what’s inside”.)
Ashe: …Well, well. Now you got my attention. What is it.
McCree, making a face: That’s none of your business.
Ashe: Well as I see it…Now it’s very much our business.
McCree, sighing: It doesn’t always have to be this way, Ashe.
Ashe: Apparently, it does.
—
7:03
McCree: Well, that’s a story for another time, but I got a call. They want me, but really, they need you.
(McCree starts to walk away.)
Echo: Jesse, wait! What are you going to do?
McCree: I’ve got some business to attend to.
(McCree takes Ashe’s bike.)
McCree: Say hi to the monkey for me.
Echo: Monkey?
McCree, laughing:Scientist. Whatever.
———
Alright, I want to highlight two key moments in these sections.
A good tip
Ashe: We’re pretty busy ourselves, so it’s awful convenient you showin’ up today.
McCree: …Yeah, you’ve never been one to shy away from a good tip.
Ashe: Hey! We worked hard for this score! You best move on now.
McCree: Hmmph. All I want is (gestures) that crate. Everything else is yours.

So here are the two golden questions we need to be asking:
What was this “good tip” that Deadlock got about this military train passing through their gorge?
And how exactly did McCree learn about it too?
There’s actually a surprising amount of “stuff” going on in this scene – McCree knows that Deadlock was informed about this particular train but not specifically its particular cargo (because Ashe doesn’t know what/“who” Echo is).
However, McCree himself knows about the train’s particular cargo, and specifically wants it.
In fact, he has “the key” for it.
Implied in this scene is that McCree was: 1) aware that Deadlock knew about the train and was going to attempt this heist, 2) knew in advance this train was going to be transporting Echo somewhere, and most importantly 3) was able to get the key to awaken Echo before this actual train/heist/moment.
It is implied that McCree “let” Ashe and Deadlock blow up the bridge in order to get access to Echo’s case without having to “do the dirty work” himself.
And quite frankly, there is one answer that really stands out to both of these questions:
Sombra.
Sombra is easily the most “plot-convenient character” because it’s easy to let her “super amazing hacking” fill in the gaps in the plot points. Military train transporting a special AI/robot unit that is somehow important to Overwatch? Don’t worry – she’s already inside the system (or whatever).
Need someone to retrieve said special AI/Robot unit?
In fact, the Reflections comic – which would take place after “Reunion” – implies they have had contact with each other.
Sombra also very conveniently has direct ties to Talon and a “brand new Talon leader” (Reaper) making it very easy to pass information to Ashe and Deadlock and “inform them” about a military train carrying some “good stuff” through their area. It’s been heavily implied throughout the game that Deadlock trades with Los Muertos, and both groups trade with Talon.
Sombra being an information go-between for all of these groups is super plot convenient, but it does bridge a lot of gaps.
Which of course, brings me back to my favorite subject:
McCree does not leave after Retribution. In fact, he appears to stay with Overwatch for at least another year (up through Uprising). McCree’s present-day interactions with Moira certainly imply that he doesn’t trust her, and appears to have been convinced that she was “the mistake” in Blackwatch during Retribution:
McCree: Always thought hiring you was a mistake. Moira: The best mistake one could ever make.
—
Moira: Our courageous cowboy. The years haven’t changed you much, have they, Jesse? McCree: They certainly haven’t changed my feelings about working with you.
—
This is notably different from how McCree deals with Ashe – another former “ally” from Deadlock – during the short. McCree seems to see Ashe as little more than a rival or minor problem, whereas he outright treats Moira with a good deal of hostility.
McCree finds Ashe’s (and Deadlock’s) attempts to stop him relatively easy to deal with.
On the other hand, McCree finds Moira a very real and still very dangerous threat, even though Blackwatch and Overwatch “are gone.”
Why?
Again, based on the above section, McCree is likely getting “good tips” and intel from Sombra –
Who is likely still working with “the man under Reaper’s mask.”
Blackwatch likely did not fully “disperse.”
It retreated “into the shadows” (again, Blizzard isn’t terribly clever with Sombra’s “codename”).
In fact, Retribution actually hints at this a few times:
Reyes: Trust me, Jesse, you should know by now! I won’t lead you wrong.
Reyes: I’m never gonna hear the end of this, am I?
McCree: I’m sure I’ll get over it…eventually.
Reyes: Good. Because I’m gonna need you, Jesse.
—
McCree is still attempting to help the newly recalled Overwatch “from the fringes”.
Admittedly, the “flaw” in this is that McCree supposedly “hasn’t met Reaper” in the present day (Recall era). Which means either Reyes is 110% “in too deep” and refuses to actually “meet” with any of his agents outside of Sombra (and possibly Soldier: 76) –
Or Sombra is really doing a lot of this without Reyes’ awareness (entirely plausible, though personally, given their interactions, I don’t think so).
Or alternately, even though McCree is willing to coordinate intel with Sombra, he’s not actually interested in consistently meeting up with his old commander.
Hmm, looks like McCree picked up the bad habit of calling Winston “monkey” from someone else…
(Reaper is the only character to refer to Winston as “monkey”. Other characters refer to him as the more accurate terms of “gorilla” and “ape” from time to time.)
(Do not tag this as ship content, please, for Reaper, McCree, or Winston.)
I’ll be honest. The last oh, two weeks or so, I’ve felt like I’ve wanted to give up entirely on writing/creating, and I’m not sure why.
I don’t know where the feelings stem from, or why they hit me in the face like a cast iron pan – ala Tangled – and why I’m having such a hard time recovering from it.
Many of my friends have been so awesome and so supportive, but when you;re in a Mood™, it’s so hard to believe them. [I love you guys! Seriously I do.♥]
Apparently the universe is getting in on this too. It’s reminding me that, while right now I feel like I want to give up on all things creative, that it’s just a Mood™, that it will pass.
As this reading says –
“Yes. You are talented. Yes. You are amazing.
Yes, you are a Divine-Earth-Shaking-Revolutionary-Badass-Of-Epic-Proportions.
Hey writers! Everyone has their own style and yours is great. Some people’s writing is lush and descriptive and emotional, others are sparse and sleek and powerful, and others still are fast-paced and immediate and visceral. They all have their merits. No style is better than another. It’s all fine.
And! Not all of your pieces have to be one particular style either. Just because your last work was meandering or slow or heavy doesn’t mean your next can’t be sharp or quick or light. Don’t beat yourself up because you aren’t doing what you did in the last thing you wrote. That was a different piece, required a different mood. Do what works for you. Do what works for this story. Don’t worry about what others do or what you’ve done before.
Ahhh I love this so much 💗 thank you for asking! I tried to think of romantic + intimate things I hope you don’t mind 🙂
Romantic Gestures
Trevor Belmont:
-He wanted to learn how to style your hair so he spends quite a bit of time everyday practicing
-He’s not that great of a cook but he tries to cook meals for you so you don’t have to work more than you usually do
-If he goes on an expedition without you, he’ll bring you back a gift that reminded him of you
-If he sees you eyeing his food or drink he’ll slide it over to you (with a grunt of dissatisfaction) and let you have it
-You don’t think he ever pays attention to small details but he’ll bring you things he knows you’re going to run out of soon, like your favourite snack or drink
-When you can’t sleep, he’ll quietly hum to help soothe you
-He didn’t trust anybody to cut his hair or beard until you came along, so you’re very special for him to let you near his hair
-Spends hours cuddling you if you mention that you’re cold
Alucard:
-Will wrap his coat around you if you shiver or your teeth chatter
-If you don’t make any sudden movements, he’ll sit long enough to let you french braid his hair
-At random moments or when music starts playing, he’ll swoop you up and start slowly dancing around the room
-Earlier in your relationship he would bring you flowers but you had no use for them except to look at, so he started bringing you chocolates and other treats
-Quality time with you is him trying to do your makeup and picking out your outfits
-Once a week, you pick out books from the Castle’s library and he spends the day reading them to you, which results in you falling asleep on him in the huge room
-He gets annoyed when people ask about his fangs but just for you, he lets you poke at them and question him for hours
Madame Mist??? Lady Mist??? Mist Regent??? Countess??? Empress of Mist???
Im just bothered that she doesn’t have a name on screen (other than being addressed as a general), or had any dialogue. Plus I feel like in terms of power (becoming mist and using some type of projectile vapor?) she was quite ancient. Perhaps even up there with Dracula himself.
Although, I’m sure the other generals had their own unique set of skills, outside of standard vampire abilities (super speed, super strength, flight etc)
SEASON 2 IS FINALLY OUT So obviously I finished Sabrina the Teenage Witch and went and binged Castlevania and I love these three and their relationship with each other. It’s great
Castlevania Season 2 will be on Netflix on 10/26, just two days away! It’s also my birthday today so here’s a present from me to you: Castlevania Season 2 poster art! Hope you like the new season!!
