GUYS GUYS GUYS! PVP CIV IS BACK! I Know I Only Watched Like A Month Ago, But Pvp Civ Chapter 2!!!!!!!!

AUGH. Thinking endlessly of how i'd love to adapt the entirety of the magnus archives into animatic for my own practice and aesthetics

Its majorly monochrome- in s1 the scenes outside of the statements would be grey, but so so slowly shifting to green episode by episode, and by the time s5 hits its nearly logo green. The statements start in the same colors as the 'real' world, and shift to more vibrant/dramatic colors as they hit their peak horror.

Maybe even thinking the fears have their own secret color wheel, and the statements slide into colors associated with the dread power(s) they seem aligned with, but that seems a bit much

Theres two playlists: 'The Magnus Archives animatics' and 'dont worry about it'. The first playlist only goes up to when notsasha is revealed to the cast. The second playlist animatics have a different design for sasha but everything is exactly the same. After the reveal all future playlist links go to the second playlist

The ritual events are more animated the closer to succeeding (or rather, 'succeeding') they get, and maybe more detailed colors or shading. For the watchers crown, john wakes up to partial animation (at least more frames than the rest has been) and full color for the rest of the apocalypse. The area in and around upton house goes back to monochrome but keeps the animation quality

Itd be fun to have a running bit that at the height of each story, theres a frame of the statement givers eye reflecting whatever horrors theyre peeping, but i can imagine that getting old. Maybe it could just be for live statements

I so so so badly wanted john to take the place of the statement givers on occasion while in the apocalypse, just for a choice few sentences once or twice per statement. He more or less keeps a neutral expression, or at least not one of fear, and keeps the outfit of whoever he's seeing out of. Theres so many good points that would look so cool with this. Imagine john telling off younger 'elias' in the memory of his office during rosie's statement. If nothing else i wanna do this bit at Some point

Had the thought that the end of 200 could rip apart into some kind of traditional animation style but that feels too. I dunno. Obvious? Overdone?

Certain i had more but thats all i remember at the moment. Hey would it be fucked up in a cool way if john, while taking the place of one of the kids in the dark domain statement, showed as whatever his kid self from his mr spider statement looked like

can someone please be proud of me like fuck I’m trying

I feel like in the rush of “throw out etiquette who cares what fork you use or who gets introduced first” we actually lost a lot of social scripts that the younger generations are floundering without.

fucking hate it when the stuff everybody says "actually works" does actually work.

hate exercising and realizing i've let go of a lot of anxiety and anger because i've overturned my fight-or-flight response.

hate eating right and eating enough and eating 3 times a day and realizing i'm less anxious and i have more energy

hate journaling in my stupid notebook with my stupid bic ballpoint and realizing that i've actually started healing about something once i'm able to externalize it

hate forgiving myself hate complimenting myself more often hate treating myself with kindness hate taking a gratitude inventory hate having patience hate talking to myself gently

hate turning my little face up to the sun and taking deep breaths and looking at nature and grounding myself and realizing that i feel less burdened and more hopeful, more actually-here, that i am able to see the good sides of myself more clearly, that i am able to see not only how far i have to grow - but also how much growth i have already done & how much of my life i truly fill with light and laughter and love

horrible horrible horrible. hate it but i'm gonna do it tho

Fandom PSAs

Dont’ Like, Don’t Read

or DL; DR

You are responsible for curating your own online experience.

If something upsets you, makes you angry or queasy or triggers you, stop reading/looking at it. Avoid things that might make you feel that way.

Learn to use the Sort and Filter function on AO3, especially the Exclude tools.

On social media, block and mute accounts / tags / words when necessary.

If you hated something, you don’t need to tell that to the creator or start pointing fingers at them publicly.

The Back button is free. Use it.

Addendum:

Yes, for this to work, creators need to tag their works accordingly, so that people know what sort of content they are about to engage with and can nope out if necessary.

I will probably make another PSA about the importance of proper tagging later.

Ship And Let Ship

or SALS

You are allowed to ship whatever you want.

Everyone else is also allowed to ship whatever they want.

You are entitled to dislike or even hate a ship. If you want to do this online, in public, don’t use the ship tags for hate posts.

If you see someone posting about a ship they like and you don’t, there is no need for you to start arguing with them in their replies / comments / QRTs / reblogs. Don’t throw your hate in their face.

Do not harass fan creators or fans for shipping something you disapprove.

All of this also applies to liking / disliking an individual character.

Addendum:

”I agree with this, except when…”

No, then you are NOT agreeing with this.

Let me make this VERY clear. There are NO exceptions. None.

You don’t EVER harass real people over pixels.

If you disagree with this, kindly block and move on.

Your Kink Is Not My Kink

or YKINMK / YKINMKATO

The longer version is ”Your Kink Is Not My Kink And That’s Okay”.

People have different tastes. Not everything is for everybody.

Even if you don’t like a specific kink, other people are still allowed to use it in their creations.

You are entitled to dislike kinky content and think that it’s ”weird”.

Don’t kink shame or judge people based on their kinks.

This goes both ways: your kink is not someone else’s kink, so don’t push it onto those who are not into it.

Be Kind

or Don’t Be An Asshole

Focus on the things you like instead of the things you hate.

Create and unite instead of destroying and dividing.

Don’t harass real people over fictional things.

Stop stirring up petty drama just to get some attention on social media.

Stop trying to ”win”. Fandom is not a competition.

Remember that your own experiences aren’t universally shared. Your perception of things can differ from someone else’s, but that doesn’t mean either of you is necessarily wrong.

If the WIP snippet ask is still open, I’d love to see what you have for Eskel & Fae or the Modern Werewolf Pack

Have some modern werewolves! They are confusing the hell out of Jaskier.

“Welcome to the neighborhood!” someone says, and Jaskier turns around hastily to see almost a dozen people clustered up on the sidewalk and grinning at him. “Um…thanks?” he says warily. “Need help getting your stuff into the house?” the spokesman, a broad-shouldered and very cheerful looking redhead, asks brightly. “I, um, could use a hand, sure,” Jaskier says, and then takes a startled step back as the little horde swarms his rented van. “Please be careful with the instruments!” “You mean I shouldn’t fling the - what the fuck even is this, this isn’t a guitar case?” one of the horde snipes. He’s shorter than the redhead, with a dark receding hairline and a wicked smirk. “It’s a lute,” Jaskier admits. “Who the fuck has a lute? What’s next, a fuckin’ psaltery?” “No, I don’t have one of those yet - how do you know what a psaltery is?” Jaskier blurts. “He spends so much time going down internet rabbit holes,” someone else says, giving Jaskier a bright, conspiratorial grin. “We keep telling him those are the wrong sorts of rabbits to chase.”

All of the St. Valencringe cards I made for the CRK server contest!

Idk who would even use these, but they’re all free to use with credit lmao
