I'm on a roll! Made two more digital paintings with my tablet set to greyscale so I had no idea what the colors would be when it popped out, I'm pretty happy with em!
They were made with two different color noise images and obviously one of them was a LOT more vibrant than the other, but I'm very happy with em! Specifically the Ryoji drawing, I like that quite a bit.
Ehhhhh neither? Dark is one of those characters that I think will remain an antagonist, in the sense of making the MC's life harder and presenting obstacles, but sorta be absorbed into the team by the fact that he's not malicious, kinda has to do his job, and is clearly conscious. Plus definitely never leaving Vaati's side and Vaati is almost definitely never joining the heroes. Maybe leaving them alone, as a sorta truce, but not gonna be a do-gooder hero. Dark is right there with em, at best leaving them alone/somehow accidentally becoming the therapist but like a really shitty one? I dunno though it's not my story
Back with the FS polls Oh boy.
It dawns on me I've never fully asked this question and I'm so damn curious what the general consensus is for where Dark's character is going.
I've for sure said things to mess this up being completely blind but oh well.
"That little kid didn't like anyone."
From the original fic that's acting as the basis for my AU, got a blog just about set up for it! @beyondthemirrorau

Sometimes I think my therapist was very wrong and I do, in fact, have ADHD and maybe knowing that fact for certain and getting access to ways to manage it would help a lot actually.
"Oh *****'s such a gifted child, she's very smart and answers all the teacher's questions. There's no way something could possibly be different about her!"
Then the years go by and I get worse and worse in class as teachers start assigning homework and projects but it can't be any sort of neurodivergence because '***** was always such a smart child, she's clearly just not putting in the effort anymore.'
I barely take care of myself because doing things like brushing my teeth or taking a shower or cleaning my room don't... Make me feel accomplished in any way, they just make me feel like I wasted my time and now my mouth tastes like mint and I can't eat or I'm all cold and wet or my stuff is just going to get taken back out anyway. It's probably depression or an anxiety disorder, let's give her some medicine for that.
The medicine helps me with some mild mood swings, but those become a non-issue when I'm out of school and the effort put in driving to the pharmacy and refilling my prescription just isn't worth it anymore.
I should probably go to the doctor, the dentist, the optometrist, but I really don't feel like scheduling an appointment right now, it can wait until my schedule's more free. Then my schedule gets more free and I forget because I always do unless the problem is right in front of me. There's a crack in the ceiling of my room that I should probably tell my parents about but I kept forgetting until my dad walked into my room and saw the crack himself.
Is something wrong with me? Or am I just lazy?
My therapist was probably right. I don't have ADHD, I'm just not putting in the effort.
I FOUND IT
I FINALLY FOUND IT
Hi yes I have been searching for this post for like,, a week now because I wanted to see it again and I just remembered I could go back through my liked posts. This is very amazing art β₯οΈ
black mask redesign i guess
You know, as someone who adores the Four swords adventures manga, I'm always confused by Green's characterization. Vio, Blue, and Red are obvious. Brains, brawn, and heart respectively. But Green? He's just a tad to vague for me. His main thing in the manga is some form of classic heroism, which doesn't really feel like a character trait iykwim? It always just kinda feels like he's supposed to be Linkβ’ but that kinda defeats the purpose. So! I'm going to be rambling about a couple Green concepts that I think give him a bit more spice.
Aggressively average Green. Exactly what it sounds like, he is so horribly, terribly average at everything. Take his dubious characterization and dial it up to 11. Massive potential for an identity crisis, and easy to paste into the manga. His heroism is sorta the only thing he clings to, after all, if he's not the hero, who is he?
Mans fucking tired Green. This dude has been trying desperately to wrangle 3 would-be heroes into some state of cohesion, because he's the actual braincell. Sure, Vio has a lot of facts, but he has no common sense. Green is just trying to make sure his brothers(?) don't die. If it were up to Green, they would all be sitting at home with some hot cocoa and a kitty.
Go with the flow Green. Drawing particularly from the four elements that forged the four sword, we're leaning into the idea of the air element. Green's got absolutely 0 braincells this time, he's moving on vibes. Oh, we're four people now? Sounds good to me. I'm in the middle of the desert? Sure, why not. Vio's being gay with the enemy? Good for him. This is arguably harder to implement in the canon, but we can just say at the time he was just doing what felt most in line with the goal of "be a hero, save Zelda"
Ew Vio Green. Leaning more into their rivalry that was pretty awesome, we're making Green as opposite Vio as possible. While Vio is all "the ends justify the means" Green thinks you can't break the rules even for a good cause. While Vio is very into book learning, Green is very experience oriented. While Vio is an introvert, Green is an Extrovert. You get what I mean? Relying on Vio's incredible characterization to help bolster Green's.
Add more green character types in reblogs or comments pls! I really wanna see it, or heck, if you have complaints about another FSA manga character I'd also love to hear your changes!
Yo! How do you find someone to help with a fic you're trying to write? I don't really have friends that like Linked universe, and I need someone to help me figure out how to actually write ππ
Various persons 3 reload prompts and things I want more of because I have been inhaling persona 3 fics at the speed of light and I have ideas even if I don't want to be the one to write them (yet, maybe I'll get around to it, don't worry about that.) May include crossover suggestions because those are half my life.
Nyx isn't necessarily a bad mom per say, she's just.. a goddess. She neither understands nor tries to understand humanity in all its intricacies, being so above them all. But.. she did try to offer Ryoji some small kindness as he existed as human. (We're basically going so hard on the strange family?? dynamics between the weird god-things. I think it'd be fun!)
Ryoji and Minato couldn't really claim to be gods, (well, maybe Ryoji could - Thanatos was the Greek god of death after all) but they're definitely not mortals anymore. They're.. powerful, otherworldly. (Potential badassery or potential angst, depending on how you interpret that. There are some fics that touch on this but not nearly enough)
Minato Arisato had existed during the dark hour for ten years after the accident. Every day at midnight, the world would be enveloped in green and shadows would roam the world. After living through the horrors of the dark hour, it only made sense that Minato would have something to show for it. (More slightly op Minato fics please. Again, I've read a few but not nearly enough! It doesn't help that none of them were finished π)
Percy Jackson crossover y'all. Come onnn, it's too easy and I have only found 2 so far. Isekai persona characters in or let Minato and Ryoji be kinda gods.
Follow up to that, it's so easy and fun to chuck characters into unsuspecting worlds via the power of I'm the author and I can do what I want. Isekai the shit out of your favorite characters. BNHA is my go-to because it's such a fun place to chuck people but like,, why not Undertale? Why not pokemon? Just fuckin yeet them into your favorite media franchise.
Have a mediocre painting of my favorite twink that I made at like,, midnight last night. As a treat.
Alt versions, because I'm indecisive
I've been thinking about ToTK lately, and one thing consistently bothers me.
Why was Zelda the one to get the time powers? Link is clearly the one who's magic involves time. His past incarnations have traveled through time a whole heck of a lot, plus bullet time and flurry rush. It would fit perfectly in the story as well.
Link, in a fit of desperation to save Zelda, reaches to send her somewhere where Ganon isn't an issue, tapping into his own innate time power to send her all the way back to before Ganon got his secret stone. Zelda cannot simply travel back because she has no power over time. So, she remains in the past, does all the same things, because she does need to fix the master sword.
Meanwhile, Link gets recall not from any outside source, but from himself, with some coaching from Rauru on how to channel his magic through the arm. He sends the master sword back to let Zelda know he hasn't forgotten about her, but he can't send anything more. The story then proceeds as usual. Legit just the tiniest change but I feel like it would make so much more sense.
There are many things I would edit about tears of the kingdom, such as the fact that no one can seem to decide if they want the games to be within one universe or not, (like girlypop the Zonai are cool and all but they do NOT belong on the Zelda timeline,) and that the weird ancient sages being nobodies compared to the champions. But for some reason, this one thing is what sticks out in my mind as something I must fix.
