What I Love About Shane And Ryan's Dynamic Is The Fact That Neither Of Them Are The Designated "straightman"

What I love about Shane and Ryan's dynamic is the fact that neither of them are the designated "straightman" (THE ARCHTYPE. THE ARCHTYPE!!! This is not that type of blog.)

And at first it seems glaringly obvious. Shane plays the rational "must've been the wind" type skeptic to Ryan's adamant believer. When Ryan's in that state where he's hyperaware and terrified of everything, Shane's the one who grounds him / helps him calm down and bring him back to his senses. He has to disprove Ryan's theories whenever they get too fantastical to the point of possible harm (of course with the help of the crew).

But Ryan is also the moral voice of reason whenever Shane suggests some crazy antics, he keeps it respectful with the ghouls whenever they visit places. If there was a door that said "DO NOT ENTER the Chamber of Painful Killing and Poison", Shane would go in no second thoughts, cave-diver style and Ryan has to yoink him out and tell him "Dude that is VERY CLEARLY the Chamber of Painful Killing and Poison".

They kind of flip flop between being batshit crazy and holding the other back and I think that's beautiful

hey chat. Just know that I see your reblogs and I appreciate them. however. I have no idea how to respond to a reblog of my art but not directly reblogging my own art and sounding like I'm talking to myself.

Don't get it twisted, I love talking to myself. I just wanna talk to you guys too. </3

some Damien hcs I sometimes think about

(note that I'll make a larger hc list eventually. soon!!)

This feels sorta contradictory but I think Damien would actually be a big fan of horror movies, on a technical scale. Since he's already into nerd culture (mostly D&D and LARPing) I don't think it's too far out there to assume he'd also be into cosplays and would have experimented with making some homemade "fake blood" solution. Makes sense knowing his knowledge/interest in science and chem too?

Damien outside the show (and notably in the *comfort* of his own home watching something he knows is *staged*) would see an absolute bloodbath in an old slasher film then go "Oh, there's a bit of a splash to it. They probably substituted half of the glucose syrup for cherry juice". He's so gonna use that for his cosplay at the next Fan expo.

Damien and Vera! Childhood besties who have podcast clip-worthy banter. Vera's spunky and risk-taking (and kind of manipulative, but that's beside the point) whereas Damien is confidently honest and not a doormat per say, but he's close enough with Vera to the point he just goes along with whatever she says. They're pals.

Reblogs appreciated!

I'll let you in on some things, chat

So this is sort of half-baked in development, but I'll need a bit of exposure if this is gonna work. I'm a year deep into a Reboot S3 write and if all goes well, I could reactivate the sideblog and post about some very very important players. Well, his whole family, I think

So here's the schedule, I think

May 14 + 17 : TDI Reboot / The Boys crossover. Lots of characters (not the full cast, unfortunately)

May 20: special off day where I'll probs rant about TENET

May 21: Heather or that one angsty Damien comic prompt based on Youth by Glass Animals (if I finish it)

May 24: Whichever post didn't get posted on the 21st

May 25: my birthday??? my birthday!!!

May 28: comic directly tying in Damien and Heather

May 31st: Finally posting them.

Why did I suddenly lock in? Why am I telling you this? Because frankly if I didn't post the Asian family who's been locked into my brain during Asian history month I won't allow myself to live it down. And letting you guys know ahead of time hopefully means you'll be on board when they eventually turn their 6 heads. haha

what do you think of Mary Kate from the show total drama island voiced by Kimberly-Ann Truong

Full government name, huh? Well, I thought she was pretty swell! Her strategy in S1 was innovative and I'm so glad she's repping #evil nerds. I thought she was great in S2 but I think she deserved a little better than her placement (even by a spot or two up)

Also, she looks a bit like my current appearance/persona. Fun!

you'll never guess which media this is fucking about (it is the ONLY media on this page rn)

Ok I lied. Today wasn't that uneventful. Decided to really sit down and think about the racial and socioeconomic implications of my favourite fictional disfunctional but hopefully not OOC (...by too much) best friends 'group parents but if the parents needed a divorce or marriage counselling' gut-wrenching situationship thats "sorta canon x oc but not really because the 'oc' second guy actually exists in canon but only in 3 lines of text" OTP yet NOTP unserious bromance romance BUT "not one over the other because they're just as effectively bad together as friends as they are a couple but I don't want to queerbait but also I don't want to undermine the sheer tenacity of a friendship between two of the messiest teenagers ever" complicated ass ship in an attempt to make these characters convincingly feel like real humans by showing that while not defining their character, factors like your cultural values, racial and ethnic background, relationship to money, the people you're surrounded and surrounding yourself with, the environment you grew up in and the expectations that you followed or rebelled against all play roles in shaping how one's identity is formed and that every little interaction that has or hasn't happen does subtly mold how you see yourself-- which obviously affects relationships where you will be analyzing the other person based on their identity and what similarities and differences you have and how you work together with similarities or how differences in experience and perspective can either help or hinder the relationship and how you act in said relationship that best suits your individual personal needs.

it doesn't make sense now but if you're from my insta (which is @/13en.i heeeeeyy) then you'll know EXACTLY who I'm talking about. those guys.

or maybe I should just go with the flow. Like I’m not even accounting for reblogs and stuff that’ll clearly show activity in between my “posting days” ya know? Speaking of. I gotta start following all my Insta moots. Gotta get the band back together

oh yeahhh btw, since most of the posts will be more-than-likely hq reposts (still with a slight grain) from my art insta, I’ll be writing down the “og” date that I drew said piece. Speaking of which, new post tomorrow!! I’m making it a habit of 1-2 posts every week. Wednesdays and Saturdays. Not always the case w/ text posts since they’re almost always done in real-time. Real yapper I am.
