This is very random but I just realized this now-

IT’S RODGER BUMPASS’S (Squidward’s voice actor) BIRTHDAY TODAY- OMFGGGGGG

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO RODGER!!!!! 🩵🩵🩵

ITFT Clock drawings that I drew for my sister.

Funny enough, i know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about this show or this character. I just drew this bc I wanted to treat my sis with my dumb art of a fav character of hers. 💀💀💀

Enjoy the art ig????

I’m finally showing my recent Murder Drones art that I have drawn in the past few weeks.

Fun fact: after I fully watched Murder Drones, It has become my main and only current fixation at the moment lmfao- 💀💀💀

I’m really sorry if you might have followed me for something else. The things that I’m currently interested in changes constantly and I don’t have a consistent thing that I dedicate all of my art on. So you’re probably not gonna see any Tadc content until I get burn my self out with MD or episode 4 of Tadc comes out lmao- 💀 Also for my SaD stuff, I have no idea when I’m gonna get back into that, so I’m also really sorry for the people that followed me for SaD as well lol. 😭💀 /gen

OOOKAYYYY I’m gonna stop yapping now BYE-

Novels are not movies.

Visual media has taken on the world by storm. It’s the next big thing in the evolution of humanity, maybe. It’s quite certainly changed the way we entertain ourselves. And with the recent spread of short-form content, visual media has also become cheap, disposable, and easily accessible to the masses—perfect recipe to make a product famous.

Alright, I’ve been a little too dramatic, lol. But for real, I’m one of those who’s severely addicted to Instagram Reels. Whenever I’m done scrolling, I feel like I’ve completely wasted my time—I could have read a novel, watched a movie, or caught up with my favorite mangas. But instead of all those ways to relax—and believe me (pwlease) that I only open Insta to relax, when I’m free—I just waste my time.

I love my novels and manga, mind ya, so when I catch myself wasting precious time that I could have instead used to consume them, I cuss myself. And then I go scroll some more Insta, because I’m an absolute idiot.

Anyway, back to the topic. Visual media has absolutely taken over our lives. I won’t go into the debate of whether this is a good thing or not, but we all can agree that it’s an undeniable fact. Video is everywhere.

Because—and lemme repeat myself—it’s cheap, disposable, and easily accessible today.

And because of such exposure to video storytelling, beginning authors forget that novels are not a visual medium. Yep, here goes my rant.

#01 - The Problem

The problem is simple—these kids have too much access to their smartphones. And these smartphones are filled with videos, like a dustbin with its lid hanging on because of all that garbage overfilling it. (Damn, I sound like a boomer.)

And therefore, when these new authors begin writing, they can’t help but imagine a sort of movie or a TV show as their story. And that’s where the problem is—novels are not supposed to be movies.

Movies are a visual media. That means they’re composed of pictures. Images. But guess what novels are composed of?

Text. Words.

It seems pretty basic. I mean, everybody knows this distinction. But what they don't know, however, are the implications of this distinction.

Personally, I began writing with film-novels too. And those novels are bad. Genuinely. I cringe at the fact that I could even mail editors and believe they’d accept them. Good thing they never did.

What’s a film-novel, though? Well, the idea is pretty clear—it’s a novel, but imagined in the form of a film. So, it’s like a film, but in text.

It’s like you’ve written the film as a novel, instead of writing it as a screenplay or something, maybe.

But you’d ask me—why? Why is it even a mistake? Everybody has a different writing style. And to that, I’d tell you one thing—the audience. The audience is different. The media is different. You can’t expect a cinephile to read your book. And since it’s not like a professional novel, a (Googles the correct term) bibliophile certainly won't.

So, who’s gonna read your story?

No one—because it’s neither a film, nor a novel. It’s a film-novel, an illogical mix of the two.

Everyone drinks water, and everyone likes ice-cream. But you can't… No, I’m not even completing that sentence. Ew.

Anyway, you get the idea, lol.

#02 - Identify

So, what does a film-novel even look like?

And for that, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you,

The lean figure was standing on the other side of the railing three floors up on the ground of the school building where children below were shouting and kicking football upon each other, wearing white football jerseys. The figures, as they ran all over the ground, seemed very small as I looked at them. The goalkeeper of the right side, who was just beneath my white shoe, kicked the ball so hard that it flew in air and went directly to the other foot of mine. The other players shouted “Whoaaa!” as they saw the ball flying. But suddenly, two of them looked upwards and saw me. One of them pointed towards me and then shouted, “Hey, who’s he?!” All the other players started walking towards that boy who was in the middle of the field with their heads tilted up above on me. Another one shouted, “Hey! What’cha doin’, eh?!” My narrow eyes, which had dark spots beneath them, looked at the boys from behind my spectacles. I then moved my head a little up and saw my shiny gakuran jacket fluttered by my shiny yellow colored buttons as the wind started blowing from my left side. I was able to feel the wind dancing upon my soft skin as I closed my eyes and turned my head upwards. I took a deep breath, and then exhaled it out with my mouth. I then again took a breath. This time, when I exhaled it out with my mouth, I was able to feel the saliva of my mouth upon my lips. I tilted my head and turned towards my arm, which was trembling a little. Both of my hands were still holding the railing of the school’s rooftop. I then turned left and then looked on my other arm. “Hey! Get down!” One of the persons from beneath shouted. I turned my narrowed eyes towards the ground, the teachers, a large gang of footballers and students, and some even workers had gathered in a circle. I turned my head towards the front. I looked at a couple of brown colored and blue-green colored houses in front of me, which stood high and mighty. Beneath them was the clear blue sky.

A wall of text!

Warning: you don’t really need to read all of it. But you probably did, lol.

Anyway, it’s the opening scene from one of my first novels. And, as much as I hate to say this—it’s pretty sh*t. It has a lot of problems—no paragraph divisions, for example, as well as a lot of grammatical mistakes too. But the biggest problem with the text is that it’s just images.

Reading this text, I dare you to highlight one single sentence that might tell you anything about the narrator.

The narrator is narrating the motions, not the emotions.

(Damn, that was a dope line to say, man.)

The narrator is only telling you about the images and actions and dialogues and thoughts. Even though it’s in first-person POV, you feel distant from the narrator. And, even in third-person POV, authors are supposed to make sure the distance between the narrator and the reader remains at a minimum.

That’s how you get a film-novel—that’s filled with scene-descriptions, actions, and dialogues. There’s no narrations in it. The readers don’t know the thoughts of these characters.

***

#03 - Is it really a problem, though?

Well, you might ask me—is it really such a big problem?

Heck yeah.

The reason is pretty simple, actually—no one wants to read a film-novel. These novels are filled with only descriptions and actions—that’s too much of mental effort. these novels make their readers keep on imagining stuff, and no reader wants to do that.

Because it’s easier to look at pictures than to imagine them based on text. And that’s why your film-novels won’t work.

See, you need to understand this—novels are different than film. Sure, novels are a form of storytelling too, and they do include visual effort, such as descriptions, action, and all that. But, all that is not the main selling point of a novel.

The main selling point of a novel is the emotions. Emotions captured in words, in situations—caught in context like a butterfly in a child’s hand. Films can display emotions, but novels put those emotions into words.

Narration is what forms the greatest part of a novel. Narration is where a novel actually shines. Narration is what the readers come to read.

And, as you could guess, films don’t narrate. Consider this,

And rain made him feel like crying. He gulped down, trying to keep the lump of his throat in check. He couldn’t cry in the middle of so many other kids. They’ll ask questions, and what will he say to them, huh?

He was sorry.

For what?

For everything he did. And for everything he didn’t.

The day had just begun. It’d be long before it ends, y’know. He just couldn't wait for it to end. There was no lifting up his mood. Not until tomorrow.

How do you display this in a film? The answer—you can't. However hard you try, you can't.

Such narrations are where the art of novels shine. Such narrations are what differentiates a novel from a visual media.

#04 - Is it really a problem, though? (pt.ii)

All this talk constantly reminds me of Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. It’s a literary achievement and really experimental in a lot of stuff that it does. For example, the novel has no dashes or apostrophes—and it’s not like these punctuation marks were not needed, they’re just not used. So, you’d find a lot of grammatical mistakes throughout the text.

And also, one thing that McCarthy ignored—and that’s relevant to the discussion we’re having—is that there’s literally zero narration. Zero.

McCarthy adopts a style that’s similar to a third-person POV, and is kinda like how I used to write when I was little—just with paragraphs and better scene-descriptions and action-descriptions. A lot better, as you can observe if you read his work.

Anyway, he didn’t have any narrative elements in his text. So the readers don’t really know what these characters are thinking or planning to do. They just know that these characters are somehow surviving.

I don’t wanna give away most of the plot of the novel, but the basic premise of the novel is that there’s a father-son duo who’s been caught in this apocalypse-type situation, and are traveling down the road to the south part of the country to escape the harsh winters that the north experiences. The novel doesn’t reveal a lot—the readers don’t know the names of these characters, the thoughts of the characters are hidden most of the time, and you don’t know what actually happened that most of humanity is dead and society is completely gone.

Now, McCarthy did it for a reason. A scarcity of punctuation marks reflects a form of scarcity in the scenery around them. Because most of it is, well, gone. Humanity is gone, and stuff is decaying. You don’t find fresh food anymore. Scavenge all you want—one day, all the canned food will expire, and there will be nothing to eat. Except fruits and veggies, that need to be grown somewhere. And nobody likes the latter, honestly.

And the scene-descriptions are so tough to read. They’re an actual pain. I have had a really hard time deciphering most of it, because the vocab is too high, and probably the sentences do not flow into each other easily. I can’t say anything about the sentences if I don’t understand them, y’know.

But, man, maybe that’s how it’s supposed to be. Maybe that’s why McCarthy wrote the descriptions in this way—to symbolize the mental stress that the characters go through as they experience this world, this form of reality that they were not meant to be in.

And maybe the novel is so lacking in narrations because the characters’ minds have gone numb. They’re forgetting language. With almost zero human interaction most of the time, they are forgetting how to think and interact in words. You lose the skills you don’t really use anymore, y’know. And these guys are so obviously depressed, so they don’t think about the world. They are used to the sad reality they live in. No point in complaining how bad the food is if that’s all you’re gonna eat all your life.

So, a scarcity of narrations tell you a lot about the story and its characters. It reflects something, it symbolizes something. The Road is a masterfully crafted piece of prose, please don’t get inspired to write in this style just because. This style won’t work on most of the stories.

Yeah, just because he wrote like this means you can too. Let me tell you, dear reader, that all of what we call rules are meant to be broken. Nothing is absolute. But here’s the catch—you can’t break the rules just because you don’t know how to apply them.

Authors need to learn these rules, because that’s what constitutes most of the written prose. That’s what forms the basics of the craft. So, learn them, understand them, and know how to use them. And then make a conscious decision not to use them.

See, these rules are like tools or weapons in your arsenal. And you need to keep your arsenal ready for everything. And then, you can decide which weapon to use, when to use it, and how to use it. Because you don’t know what sort of idea hits your head next and you’d suddenly need some of them.

#04 - Solution

So, how to make sure your novel actually comes off as a novel and not a film-novel? Unfortunately, the answer to that question… is that I don't know.

I know this sounds so absurd, but it is what it is. As someone who’s so recently started studying prose, I know this problem exists, but I still don’t know how to fix it. You could say I know my novels are film-novels, and I’m trying to fix it. But I, personally, am having a lot of trouble with it.

However, one way I can recommend is to write from your character’s POV, not your POV. You probably imagined your story as a film, but that’s now how you’re supposed to write it. Get into your characters’ head, see what they’re seeing, and write that.

But it’s tough. For me, at least. I always find myself going back to my old ways, and I think I need to re-write almost all of my scene-descriptions and actions because of it.

Lol, how ironic.

Conclusion

Yeah, and that’s it. I hope you liked this blog. Sorry I hadn’t posted in along while, I was going through a writers’ block. Stuff is happening these days, y’know.

Anyway, I’ll see you again in a couple of days, with something new. Bye-byee!

I didn't get to post this here yet.

Fun fact: this is actually my first ever attempt at "properly rendering" a drawing in my entire art journey so far.

I'm honestly really impressed with myself with this.

For instance, here is a not too old drawing of also Jax from December 1st, 2023:

I'm putting the drawing under the cut cause it's CRINGE ASF-

And to think I was struggling with even just simply shading something not even a full year ago... holy SHIT I'm proud of myself.

That's it bye lmfao-

I'm gonna share my LGBT headcanons for the tadc cast bc I'm bored and I apparently have nothing else better to do. 💀💀

Please be nice about my opinions btw, I don't wanna start drama- 💀

Pomni:

Bisexual and Demi-Aroace

Pronouns are (She/Her)

Ragatha:

Leabian

Pronouns are (She/Her)

Jax:

Pansexual

Pronouns are (He/Him)

Gangle:

Polysexual

Pronouns are (She/Her)

Zooble:

Genderfluid, Agender, and Lesbian

Pronouns are (They/Them)

Kinger:

Straight Ally

Pronouns are (He/Him)

Caine:

Aroace

Even though my favorite tadc ship is Showtime, I don't ship Pomni and Caine romantically in my canon. They are instead just friends! ^^ (Platonic Showtime LESSGOOOOOOOO-)

Pronouns are (He/Him)

he must be studied. Like in a lab.

before cleanup & refs:

I was bored in science and accidentally made a dca oc oops

His name is Pewter (because pewter is a grey metal alloy)

He was made in the 1960s, so by fnaf sb He would be about 70+ in physical age and 20+ in mental age. He doesn't have any color in his design, only black and white. He is fully mute because he was never given a voice box, so he speaks in sign language

His arms don't have elbow joints, more so a robotic tube surrounded by Cotton and fabric ontop, making his arms flexible and soft. His legs do have joints, but still have cotton stuffing the inside of his pants around his actual legs

His hat his held up by metal wires and more cotton to make it soft

I have a mini theory that I just thought of now…

At some point in the show, Pomni could form a friendship with Caine.

The way that my thought process is going is that since it is already implied that Pomni is a very sympathetic person, and has said to Gummigoo in episode 2, “I guess I just don’t want you to feel like you’re nothing… I don’t want anybody to feel like that.”

Because of this particular quote that she said, I think it wouldn’t be impossible for Pomni to sympathize with Caine with his problem with feeling like he’s bad at the only thing he’s good at. This implies that he thinks that he is not good at anything. This could lead up to the topic of someone thinking that they are useless and good for nothing.

So basically what I’m saying is that we could have some kind of platonic Showtime in the canon story. This could be in the form of an emotional comfort scene like with Gummigoo in episode 2, or even just a straight up friendship.

At this point in the show it has already been heavily implied that Caine is the thing making everything dysfunctional in the circus.

Even though it is very unlikely that my dumb little theory basically about platonic showtime that could happen in the show just because I’m desperate for more Showtime content that I can actually view because I’m a minor will become an actual scenario, but It’s still a cool thing to think about I guess lol.

If you have come to this point in my insane rambling, thanks for reading my thoughts!

SaD doodle dump lessgooo

CW: some angst

these are all based off of my light ending continuation/au

also sorry about my terrible handwriting lmfao

bye lol.

Edit: I completely forgot to mention that the kid is supposed to be Harry. His character is not owned by me he belongs to Grawolfquinn.

(quinn deleted all their socials btw)

Once again, I’m bored so imma give you a random lazily rewritten version of an SaD one shot I wrote a year ago. It was originally a comic but I’m not comfortable with sharing it.

TW: Contains angst, hurt/comfort, and probably cringe.

Btw just a few fyis, “Noah” is one of the ghosts of the missing children if you were not aware. The missing children in SaD are not the same exact kids from the original fnaf. I’m apologizing in advance for my terrible writing skills. I re-use worlds like “said” and “asked” way too much. Also I made Springtrap have claws because I said so.

Anyways here it is.

-----------------------------------------------------------

It’s almost 6 o’clock in the evening, and Harry was strangely not home from school yet. Springtrap’s separation anxiety has recently been getting worse due to his abandonment issues, and he was starting to get a little anxious. “How is Harry still not home yet??” He thought to himself. Noah was looming over Springtrap’s shoulder as usual. “You’re worried about him aren’t you?” Asked the ghost. “N-No…” Springtrap replied. Noah chuckled. “You're such a liar.” Springtrap turned around and gave Noah a very annoyed look. “Whatever…” Said Springtrap. “Chances are he probably forgot about you like Deliah.” Noah said. Springtrap visibly flinched. He remembered the time he almost hurt Deliah. This instantly triggered a panic attack. “NO HE DID NOT!” He yelled at the ghost. Noah giggled. “Wow… you’re that in denial that you’re refusing to believe that sometimes people don’t like you!”. “Shut up!!” Springtrap’s claws dug into face as he panicked even more. Just as he was overthinking everything, he heard the front door crack open. “Hey, Spring! Sorry I’m back so late.” Harry said, standing in front of the door with his backpack in his hand. He tossed his bag aside. He was going to explain his reason but was cut off by Sprigtrap hugging him. “Please don’t leave me alone that long again…” he said. Harry regained his balance and hugged back. “It’s okay… I won’t.” He replied. Springtrap suddenly burst into tears. “Hey, Hey, Hey! Wait! There’s no reason to be upset! I’m home now.” Said Harry. Springtrap could barely speak. “B-But I- I was alone… I was panicking!” he said, crying harder. “Stop being stuck on it. It's over.” Harry replied. They both pulled away. Springtrap sat down on the floor at Harry’s level and avoided eye contact. “Hey, look at me. You're okay now.” Harry reassured. Springtrap sighed. “I’m sorry…” “Don’t be sorry! Just calm down.” Harry replied. Springtrap wiped the tears off of his face. He sighed. “O-Okay…”

-----------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for reading my dumb story lmfao

I’m bored again so imma explain my SaD light ending continuation/au.

TRIGGER/CRINGE WARNING: This story will contain a little bit of swearing and A LOT of angst, hurt and comfort.

This story only focuses on Springtrap and Harry. The main story line will be focussing on Springtrap moving on from the events of the story in the original comic. It will probably not have that many chapters but I’ll try to add as many as possible.

DISCLAIMER: Deliah and Nick are not going to be included in the story. Their side of the story has basically come to a close so I won’t be continuing it any further. Why? Because I don’t want to.

•Character info•

ANOTHER DISCLAIMER: All of the personality traits for the characters are based off of head cannons or theory’s from analysis.

Springtrap

Like I said in this post, Springtrap is depressed from losing Deliah’s friendship. Just like in the light ending in the original comic, Springtrap agreed to stay at Harry’s house instead. Over time, Springtrap became extremely sensitive and very anxious all the time. He has breakdowns more often, and his abandonment issues and self esteem gradually got worse. He lost all confidence in himself and is basically always crying. All his life he has never shown any sort of weakness to anyone, so he is especially embarrassed about crying in front of someone. He constantly hides his emotions and shuts down a lot.

•Personality•

Even though it obviously doesn’t seem like it, but he secretly is a very big goofball and can have a sassy attitude at times. He does get angry and frustrated very easily though. He has a very small amount of ADHD but was never treated or acknowledged for it when he was alive. (Don’t ask how that works lmfao. This is fnaf logic we’re talking about here. Half of the actual fnaf lore technically doesn’t make sense anyway)

His text will look like this when he talks.

Harry

Harry is very worried about Springtrap and wants to help him. (I don’t really know why he cared so much in the first place in the original comic but I’m just gonna roll with it lmao) He’s not much of a comforting type, but he tries his best to calm Springtrap down during a panic attack or a breakdown.

•Personality•

He has a very chill personality. When he’s really excited or happy about something he does his usual thing of acting cool about it. He doesn’t really like to show off the other side of his personality, but when he does, he can be sarcastic and a bit of a smart aleck when he jokes around.

His text will look like this when he talks.

______________________________________________

Would anyone even read this story anyway?? I don’t even know if I’m gonna post it on tumblr yet, but really want to though so I guess I will. It’ll probably be on my Wattpad too if I get the chance to post it there. (I’m really sorry for some reason I can’t figure out how to share my Wattpad account so I can get the link. If I find out how later I will link it) I am aware that I can post it on AO3, but I don’t have an account there and I don’t want one.

Thank you for reading this.

Uh- It’s currently midnight. I literally started writing this post at like 9 O’clock tonight. This took way too long lmao.

TRIGGER/CRINGE WARNING: cringey angst and a lot of annoying yapping about character analysis and character writing.

If you’re naturally very impatient I suggest scrolling off because there is a lot of text to read. I’m a huge nerd and I really enjoy character analysis. I’m not sorry

>:3

I’m bored so I’m just gonna do an extremely small doodle dump of SaD Springtrap stuff.

Now for the explanation and analysis.

DISCLAIMER!!! This is all my PERSONAL OPINION!!! I’m not trying to change people’s minds about stuff. I’m just sharing my thoughts.

Sooo… basically I like to put a lot of unnecessary angst on this dude lmfao. In my continuation/au, I wrote Springtrap to be depressed, anxious and sensitive because I wanted to make him act like he feels guilty about his past.

In the actual comic he sometimes feels guilty about his past and then he switches to not feeling bad about it and is instead proud of it. I noticed a pattern of him going back and forth. tbh when I first saw the comic I was very confused on where the direction his character was going. Like- “are you redeeming him or are you going to continue portraying him as a villain??” His situation kinda reminded me of an anti hero. It still confused me a lot at first though lol.

So basically the short answer is that;

I rewrote Springtrap in my au to actually show remorse because I thought it didn’t make any sense for him to switch back and forth from evil to good. Unless he was intended to be an anti hero or something idk.

I also wrote Springtrap this way partly because I personally thought that he can’t be extremely remorseful at the same time as proud of being evil. It just didn’t make sense to me. I could honestly go on for hours about how his character writing kinda sucks. So here’s how I see the rules for character arcs;

For example, if you want to make a character have a redemption arc, first, they are completely on the evil side. Then, throughout the development and the story, they slowly move closer to the good side by constantly contemplating their evil choices and gradually start to feel guilty and regretful about it. Here is where the mistake occurs;

You can’t make the character turn good, but at the same time, making them feel proud of being a villain.

For a villain arc this is vise versa.

If you reached the end of this post and actually read it, I genuinely thank you for listening to my thoughts and opinions. I would love to hear yours!

This took so long to write help-

Edit: I just realized I spelled “Awkward” wrong lmaooo.

Here's a less lazy more in my art style Jax doodle. And I somehow felt motivated enough to actually color it and shade it.

And a SaD Springtrap doodle I did just now. I was too lazy to color it lmfao.

Ironically they're both rabbits lol.

uh- bye.

Fun fact, I draw stuff from Springtrap and Deliah.

I did this weird ass “design breakdown”/“character analysis”for my SaD light ending continuation (“au” I guess??) bc I was bored. Also sorry abt my hand writing it’s so freaking bad.

Anyway, does literally anyone know what Springtrap and Deliah is anymore??

And don’t worry for the people that know what it is I am well aware of what the artist did and I don’t support it.

This is so f*cking dumb my God-

Bye lol

Hello again. I drew Jax!

And as a bonus...

I drew Caine from @ask-tadc-infection-au !

(This is also probably the worst fan art of Caine I've ever drawn IT LOOKS SO BAD HELP- I hope the original artist sees this though lol)

Edit: Scratch that they both look really bad lmao

Another Edit: These were both kinda rushed so it makes sense that they look really bad lmfao

uh- hi. first post lmao

I drew Caine! I love him he's such a goober :3
