Last One! For Now Lol This Was So Much Fun To Do

Update..of sorts

Hey guys, I'm in a funk currently. Stress with work, living situation and just general depression has left me creatively drained. I currently don't feel confident in my abilities to fill any requests. I'm gonna try to write to maybe see if my inspiration will come back to me- but I think this is one of those things I just have to wait for it to pass.

That post about death note being “everyone’s first anime” (untrue statement) made me curious and now I want to gather data for science

Can you reblog this and tell me where are you from and what was your starter anime?

UPDATE

It has been a while! Christmas came and went for my fam and I, then a few family dramas and wifi was turned off. But, I am back! In between breaks from work and just life in general, I'll be posting filled requests!

REQUESTS ARE OPEN!!!!

I'm opening my request box for the following fandoms!

BG3: Astarion, Gale, Halsin mainly but others are welcome(I just got to moonrise towers in game but IDC Abt spoilers)

Transformers: Literally any and everyone. Not a single character is a no

Stardew Valley: Literally any of the adult characters

Skyrim: All of the adults

Fallout(3, NV, 4, TV): all of the adults

If you are a Nazi sympathizer, White Nationalist , White Supremacist, KKK member, neo-fascist, and the like, unfollow my blog immediately

When thinking of naughty fic, I think of these men.

A lot of the time though when people hear or read the word critical, they view it as the negative. We need to change, in a social sense, what the word critical and critical analysis means.

To add to this and explain what I mean, I look at characters critically when I like them. I find their flaws and perfections and see how they intermingle to make a character I like. I examine how that characters past as influenced their present and how it may influence their future.

From a narrative standpoint, I pick apart what makes a piece of literature I like to find out more about it. I use those ELA classes I took in Middle/HS and I put them to use in everything I read. I try to understand the story for what it is and what it could be trying to say between the lines. I look for all the negative and the positive and I ask, "What, When, Why and How?"

All aspiring authors should try to do this, with professional and non-professional(free content, like Fanfics) to see how their favorite authors convey emotions, tell a scene, etc. The people around you, be they famous or not, can teach you so much- you just have to look for the golden nuggets of themselves they sprinkled into their works.

I think the people who say “You don’t need to be critical of every piece of media you consume” fundamentally misunderstand what we mean by “critical”.

When we say “be critical of the media you consume” we don’t mean “be negative” as in, find every flaw and pick it apart CinemaSins style.

We mean “examine it”. Like, look at what you are consuming, and in many cases, enjoying, and ask yourself why you are enjoying it. Ask yourself who made it. Ask yourself if you are the target audience. Ask yourself if you are being represented by the characters you see. Ask yourself if the author has biases or political leanings they are trying to include in the story.

Just, ask yourself questions. The answers don’t have to be negative. That’s not what being critical means.

Life update!

I got a week off of work! But! I am now the dreaded sick. I've taken medicine and am slowly working on writing, so hopefully- inbetween updating fanfics and writing for my request still in my folder, I'll have a lot of things posted in the coming week.

I know its Thanksgiving for us Americans, but I honestly don't celebrate it(I just eat the food) plus my fam is hella small, so I don't have any holiday plans. So heres to hoping sh*t gets done! I, for some reason, get hella inspired when Im sick. Dont ask me why, I just do.

put a "∞" in my ask box and I'll shuffle my music player and give you my favorite lyric from the song that comes up.

yo please
