[Advice on dealing with writer’s block] I’ll try and write something, because improving nothing is impossible, improving rubbish is possible.

no other person on this planet was made for you, they were made for themselves. love is all about choices. no one is going to be perfect for you, and i think we need to stop raising everyone on the belief that someone out there, just one other person in the whole world, was “made for you” because it isn’t true. no one is made for you, besides you. other people belong to themselves. if you want to make it work with someone, it’s about hard work, understanding, compassion, communication, and choice

Return of the Truth

I’ve wanted to do a picture of this kind for AGES! 😀 A tribute to my fav pick of my favourite set of Pokemon games, Black and White! If you’re one of the haters, come and try to tell me these games are shitty. I’ll gladly laugh in your face :3

Anyway, it has been a year since my first piece done with tablet. I tried something new again, something a bit more “painty”. I’m planning to add a similar piece with N and Zekrom on Dragonspiral Tower. So one day, hopefully.

Modern witches who keep their potions in empty water bottles and tupperware with their purpose scrawled on them in sharpie. Witches who buy cute little bottles from Hobby Lobby and Michael’s so that their potion cabinet will look cute. Witches who’s spell books are messy, thoughtless, scribbled in notebooks with like five different pen colors on one page bc they kept losing their pen, ironically while writing a pen finding spell. Witches who brew potions in hello kitty tea kettles and pikachu pots. Witches who have spells in the notes folder of their phone, and who enchant their phones and wallets so they won’t lose them. Just give me all the cute, modern witches. Give me all of them.

honestly, the concept that I can be loved and accepted for who I am is so goddamn wild.
you mean I’m good enough?? and I don’t have to silence myself and learn to bite my tongue?? my opinion is actually considered valid and possibly even valuable??
~~is this real life or is this just fantasy~~

A werewolf film written by a woman wouldn’t be as interesting because they know how unrealistic it is to be caught by surprise by something that happens regularly every damn month.

#run right into queue#no no no no no the exact opposite#by this standard a werewolf film written by a woman would be much more interesting because it would be more /varied/#some werewolves who are prepared not only for their own shift but also for those of six of their closest packmates#some werewolves who wake up already covered in fur and look at their ruined clothes and think ‘oh /shit/ that was yesterday’#some werewolves who can’t be assed to figure out what day it is and therefore have an alert set in their phone#so that once a month they wake up not to a blinking ‘wake up’ message but to ‘wake up and Be Prepared’ and dramatic hyena music#(and then inevitably lose/break/forget to charge their phone the day before and spend hours humming uncomfortably#before suddenly remembering at the least convenient moment possible and rushing off stripping as they go)#not to mention the one werewolf who only transforms one night a month and then has to refrain from gloating#while they help their one packmate who’s been shifted for an entire goddamned week and has started dreaming of murder (via @ereborne)

Also, periods don’t happen regularly for all women.

When I was a teenager, I’d get a period every month or so, but it would be for anywhere from 4 to 10 days and would happen any time from every 4 to every 6 weeks.

When I was an undergrad, I straight-up stopped having periods, and my GP was like “yo, that’s not healthy, here’s some birth control.” On birth control, I bled literally every single day. For an entire year. And also gained 20 pounds. My gynecologist at this point decided to believe me that I didn’t want kids and therefore didn’t care about preserving my own fertility (and am asexual and so really don’t care about birth control) and let me get off the pill.

Now I get 3-4 periods a year, and they’re generally spaced at least 3 weeks apart, but other than that, it’s a total mystery.

I would read the heck out of a werewolf story this medically complicated. Bonus points if the sort of discrimination werewolves have to put up with is a thinly veiled critique of all the misogynist shit surrounding our periods.
