Just created this blog to house my art in case anyone enjoys it but didn't want to follow my personal blog (@re-reclass). Going to spend a little time reblogging all my old art here so it's in one nice place. Got some old pieces incoming first but hey it is what it is.
I made an art blog! I'm queuing my old stuff, and it should finish populating in the next day or so.
Made a VO blog too to encourage myself to do more little projects.

It would WORK if they would just listen and understand though. Jeez!

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
The only reason why transphobes always ask “what is a woman” instead of “what is a man” is because we all know that a man is a featherless biped.
It’s 2023, women can have as many legs and feathers as they want- get with the times.
BEHOLD! TUMBLR'S WOMAN!

Yeah, that tracks.
My favourite thing about Fantasy High is that Brennan just went "yeah, the idea of a DnD-style adventurer's high school is incredibly fucked up, this is an unsanitiseable premise, these kids are going to the most fucked up high school you can imagine" and just fully leaned into that. In episode 1 he marched Aguefort up in front of the school to deliver a speech that told the players and the audience what the deal was and stuck with it. It's a fucked up school run by a guy who doesn't know anything about education. It's training people to do a job that probably shouldn't exist and kids are running around murdering people and that's just what they do. It makes no sense. It's fun as hell. Let's go with it.
I have written a magical school series, but if you mean a ttrpg-style adventurer's academy, no. It doesn't make sense and it's not conducive to good storytelling or worldbuilding in novels. It's a style of world designed to facilitate play; if you're not running a game or building a world for games to be played in, there's no point to it. It's actively detrimental.
"But Derin, novels in these worlds exist! They're a major industry!" Yeah, and most of them exist not to be good stories in their own right but to flesh out game worlds and play modules for gamers. As stories, they suck. They universally suck. Because being good stories on their own isn't their purpose.
I don't write for ttrpgs, so no, I wouldn't write on this premise. I also wouldn't hold a game with this premise, not because there's anything wrong with it (Fantasy High is a lot of fun), but because I don't want to run a game in a high school.

At the annual Houston RenFest we’d always get one or two furries that walk around and every time the general reaction from the medieval roleplayers is akin to “BEASTS? BEASTS THAT WALK LIKE MAN? FOUL!”
Last time I went a furry volunteered for an impromptu conversion/exorcism and a guy dressed as a monk gathered a bunch of people and using a Gatorade bottle performed an entire catholic christening while reading off the instructions on his Ipad. When the furry was fully “converted” he removed the head of his costume and everyone in the crowd pretended to freak out and say shit like “GlORY BE HE IS SAVED” “CHRIST HAS BROKEN HIS CURSE”
That’s the best crap i’ve heard in months
have I mentioned that i’m fucking in love with humankind
Me & the other drivers were really impressed when you swerved around all of us at high speeds & got to the red light before anyone else
we ask that the defense not say "me when i lie" while the witness testifies
Explain your reasoning plzzz
still sometimes think about how when my apartment got raided by cops back in 2021 i had a massive neon sign on the wall of my living room that just said "crime"
Can you imagine suing Boeing and coming home to find Boeing's faulty plane parts washed up in your backyard?
