In this gif pack you can find 650 gifs of RIZ AHMED as Zed in Mogul Mowgli. All of these gifs were made by me for roleplaying purposes. Please like or reblog if you plan on using them or found the pack helpful, but please don’t put them into other gif hunts or use them for making icon gifs or crackships or anything else.

staff has announced that on may 15, they’re forcing everyone to switch to the new beta post editor. this is very, very bad for gifs. @saintalicent made a post detailing the difference between the old and new post editors, but basically the new post editor shoves gifs into a text post and slightly resizes them, lowering the quality of the gifs.
gifmakers are the backbone of this website, and staff needs to be reminded of this. if you’re a gifmaker, please send polite feedback to staff explaining that you don’t want the quality of your gifs to be reduced and that this will negatively affect your experience on this website.
we got them to back off on the gif to mp4 thing last year, and we need them to back off on this. please reblog for visibility.
DAISY JONES AND THE SIX (2023) | Official Teaser Trailer
Paralyzed by fear. You want to turn your back and run, like you have all your lives. How do you expect to save the world if you can't even save yourselves?
The Vestiges of Divergence. In the Great Calamity, these weapons of war were created to strike down the gods themselves. Believed too powerful for mere mortals to wield, the vestiges were scattered across the lands. Buried, lost, forgotten. Or perhaps... waiting to be found. The Deathwalker's Ward is one such vestige.
OH MY GOD I NEEDED THIS
For the chronically anxious and/or otherwise mentally ill:
This is not a screamer, jumpscare, or any other kind of horror link I don’t know the name of. It will not cause you to question reality and as far as I’m aware, there is no reason it should cause any kind of hallucinations or psychosis. I don’t want to spoil the surprise because it’s DELIGHTFUL but I am happy to tell you it’s very sweet and gentle and also great lowkey stress relief. This is a cinnamon roll link appropriate for all ages (yes, all the way down to babies) and you will enjoy it if you click it. ❤️

it is 8 am and my brain will not shut up about how Fjord "nOT uNDerStANdiNg" Jester is the whole damn point of the ship. like yes, he didn't immediately clock that Jester was putting on a sunshine act. of course, he didn't. he has a mechanical -2 to insight and ten layers of his own performative bullshit encasing him like armor and besides, he's likely assuming Jester would just tell him if there was something wrong. they already know so much about each other that the rest of the group doesn't. what's the point of secrets?
so yeah, it has to be pointed out to him, but what does Fjord do when he realizes Jester is not what he initially thought? he asks her about her feelings. he does the work to understand her better, and he fucks up on occasion because he has his own things he needs to work through and he doesn't understand exactly where the lines are, what's going to make her feel protected and what's going to make her feel patronized, but he puts in the effort with Jester because he cares about Jester. and I hate to say it because the idea that someone might just magically see the real you is oh so romantic in fiction, but that's what a real relationship is. that sort of work is what any sort of love is built on. it's not about inherently just getting it. it's about effort and change and devotion and being vulnerable whether that means lowering your shields to confide in someone or just looking like an idiot to make someone happy.
and this ain't even getting into how once he does start asking the right questions and gets to know her on that next level, Fjord does understand Jester because she is almost exactly like him.
to those saying that tumblr’s decision to begin converting gif/gifv to mp4 will not significantly impact quality, here’s a side by side comparison to prove you wrong.
here’s what a normal gif (made using photoshop, sharpened and colored, dimensions are 540x615px) looks like on the tumblr dashboard:
and zoomed in:
this is what it looks like after being converted to mp4:
and zoomed in:
if you’re a content creator, the difference is very very significant, even more so when zooming in. people who claim otherwise should maybe consider listening to gif makers who actually… create gifs??? and have a process??? that takes time and energy as it is??? and all of that will be completely undone if staff decides to implement this change sitewide. it will worsen the quality of gifs even more. it will drive content creators away from the site for good.
rather than argue to the contrary, please continue to do what you can to support creators and bring this to staff’s attention.

just like…
the narrative of this extremely ambitious woman, who gave up everything for her career, her freedom, her friendships, her love… a woman who was ready to break an oath as old as her city to accomplish her lifetime goal… a woman so full of hubris, so confident about her and her era’s power to see herself as equal to the gods… a woman who has never failed at what she was good at.
the narrative of this woman choosing love above all else for just once, seeing their fear of what she’s become and just, choosing to save her friend and the love of her life, in a split second, in an impulse decision.
the narrative of the woman letting her heart make a decision one time, just one time, and this one time causing an apocalypse.
the narrative of the universe proving her that no matter if she tries or not, she’ll lose those closest to her heart anyway.
like, i can’t wait to see where this villain origin story will go.
In an episode that was devastating for all the characters, I ended it feeling the most devastated for Nydas.
Because whatever their reasons, in that end scene, Nydas was the only one actively protecting the Tree. Laerynn was trying to destroy it, Quay wouldn’t actively try to stop her, Zerxus and Patia both tried to walk the middle ground of ‘let me gather information before committing to an action’…
It was just Nydas. And he failed.
And I think Lou’s comment that he never expected to be in this position is poignant. He expected Nydas to be on the hubris side of calamity-causing. He never expected Nydas to be the one person standing against it.
Add that to the way Lou roleplayed him…just riddled with desperation, pleading, pleading, pleading, not wanting to hurt his friends, but not wanting the blood of an age to be on their hands…he was in a position he never expected and he tried so hard, but he failed, and I’m genuinely heartbroken for him.

DEWANDA WISE for Vanity Fair (2022)
ok but also the meta-narrative implications of asmodeus’ perspective on creation
because he might not be lying! in fact i don’t think he is! when he says “yeah but lies and betrayal and pain make the nice things more beautiful by contrast!” i think that’s genuinely how he sees things!
because the world is a piece of art to him. the world is a narrative, something he and his peers built to entertain themselves. putting in pain and misery is like… well, frankly, it’s like when you make a d&d character and dump a bunch of trauma into their backstory because that’s what makes the story interesting. and it’s not evil because it’s not real, it’s not like you’re hurting a real person, it’s a story and stories need conflict!
and so, pull back a minute, and we see the structure of the show we’re watching - we are watching a tragedy. we are tuning in each week to see how the world ends. we know all these lovable characters, all their cute kids, are going to be destroyed. and we watch, because that’s interesting.
that’s what humanity is, to asmodeus. the people who suffer, they’re not real people, not like him and the other gods and the primordials, they’re just the things they made to tell a good story and how dare they get all uppity and complain that they don’t like the story he’s given them to live out!? they’re just pieces of the great work of art that is creation!
