I definitely feel like Elordi could pull off "pathetic wet cat of an undergraduate student doing crimes against nature in a maic episode" and Isaac has the "idealized classical masculine figure that can be fucked up with some prosthetics and creepy contact lenses and sundry other effects" going on
Beebee
Honestly if I was directing I would have just cast Isaacs as the creature and Elordi as Victor.
It makes me wonder why we never get it -- Victor Frankenstein always old or at least mature and strapping. Is it because making him too youthful and pretty and delicate will make him too sympathetic? Idk let's look at what Tumblr has to say --
Me reading #jayvik fics at 4am be like:
I need to get ahold of that one
The only adaptation I've seen come close is ballet and that's because of the youthfulness of typical ballet dancers. It's super odd.
Victor Frankenstein is supposed to be a beautiful twink who's constantly ill. He creates his creature at 19 and at 27 becomes the beautiful, sickly object of obsession of a weirdo polar explorer. It's really weird how this is so much of the book and never in any adaptations.
It sounds like the only thing they missed was that Victor is supposed to be a hot twink.
BRO. THAT’S THE BOOK. THAT’S LITERALLY THE BOOK. WHAT THE FUCK.
It's weird because like with all this discussion on fertility rates I think what gets lost is that the conditions under which people are created are just inherently bad in general. Like human reproduction, childhood, etc., they're all just bad, and the false pedestal is cracking.
This history of fascists using Jews to enact fascism (and then blaming us for it!) is long and disturbing, but it helps to remember that this is far from the first time it’s happened. Maybe listen to us when we tell you it’s happening this time.
I need ppl to understand that this not a “Trump” or “Republican” thing. well-meaning con organizers asked me to do Shabbat candle-lighting at midnight instead of sundown. major conventions have been scheduled over Passover. I ask for my major holidays off every year when Christmas is a bank holiday
I think it's impossible for gentiles to understand that "useful idiot to antisemites" is actually the default stance for... well, anyone who isn't Jewish (and becomes the stance for so many Jews even). This is by design.
Hozier is just Florence and the Machine for bisexuals, which makes sense because Florence and the Machine is just Hozier for bisexuals.
there's something so eldritch about being transgender. breaks the minds of others
Ughhhhh
I mean, true, but also I often forget they exist. I think I should be the prototypical man and that they should have to compare themselves to me instead.
they crashed into guiliani to harvest his old guy organs for frankensteining trump who is now dead
I can't wait for the musical in 30 years.
It feels good to roll over in bed, because it allows the dreams to flow from one half of the brain to the other—and images become language, and poem logic becomes clarified by the logic of rotating stars
I've been saying, it's going to look like Heathers.
From Reddit
I don't think she said they didn't work, she said they would set off crazy alarms, which I'm assuming could be disabled somehow.
sometimes you just gotta unfollow people you liked before because of incorrect opinions about gothic literature
Splashed some color on that sketch! I love using warm beigey tones for these two #arcane #jayvik
You should talk more about the things you love. Especially online.
i dont like vampire aus bc i mostly lk dont care abt vampires but also bc ppl never pick the right character of the ship to be the psychosexually obsessed vampire.... its just boring if its the serious pompous one, it needs to be the stupid himbo one and he should beg for blood like its a dog treat
Seems like a sign they are probably more used to like Jehovah's witnesses than like, Jews or Muslims.
yeah “giving a shit about real problems that are actually occurring” being made into a political liability is just an extraordinarily grim development. you’re incentivized to avoid trying to actually address real things because there’s no upside at all politically.
middle aged catboy :)
This is super weird...
Call your Republican representative and ask them whether or not Paypal is going to ban you if you buy a gun. Ask if they'll ban you for buying Game of Thrones. Or 50 shades of gray. Ask why they're monitoring your purchases so closely. Keep on stressing that they are going after customers.
My take away from this is a large corporation knows exactly what items you purchase and judges you for it.
“Will you keep my money if im banned” > “Yes, in order to avoid this you should withdrawal your money now.” Then she gave me instructions on how to transfer money. Then when she was hanging up she told me to have a “blessed day” which felt suspicious.
I asked PayPal about this today “will my account be banned if i have or will buy adult content” they gave me a generalized answer amounting to “yes”.
I am going to start screaming when people say they want to understand the problems of transmasculinty and then go, but actually....what we need to talk about is their privilege
My "definitely not dead" T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt
This is exactly how alive people speak. Trump is obviously alive. The MOST alive, one could say,
Extremely stupid idea: Picture Viktor showing up at Jayce’s apartment in a big fur coat and dropping it a’la “it’s me grandmama” lady in Anastasia and under the coat is literally just he complete normal clothes he always wears. Nothing at all sexy. Jayce still gets flustered and turned on about it.
An important and underrated innovation in my opinion
My most strongly held belief about the American Jewish community is that we have outsourced “authentic” Judaism to either The Old Country or Israel, and view our own history/story as inauthentic
My favorite type of jayvik fics are always the ones where Jayce gets sent back to s1 and he meets a very lonely Viktor and then they do gay activities together or smth idk #arcane #jayvik
sadly the toast folded before they could do dirtbag piranesi
What's crazy is that we DO know what they look like as smooth skinned youths from season 1 act 1 and by the end they have absolutely visibly aged by a LOT.
as always, if you want to support creators and not give into fascism, stop-paypros.neocities.org
I was doing something super heroic and cool before I got in a car accident, please do not look into this any further
It's interesting that Women's lib in Japan wasn't taken seriously, possibly because its ideas of Patriarchy as a system that oppresses *everybody*, was to ahead of its time (and arguably is still controversial today)
Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑
Personal space #Arcane #viktorarcane #jayvik #JayceTalis
'Detrans' does not mean that someone does not have dysphoria. When someone decides to detransition, acknowledging it is about respecting someone's agency, not speculating about secret truths of that person's innermost self.
The Jews are the ones conspiring to turn sex mommies into sex daddies so you have a surplus of sex daddies to choose fr-- oh wait the sex daddies just married each other.
Trans people turned your sex mommy into a sex daddy. The queers turned your sex mommy gay, no sex for you, now.
That's what they're saying when they post a tradwife running through a grain field and "retvrn." Jews plotted to steal your would-be white tradwife sex mommy. Black men seduced your would-be white tradwife sex mommy. Immigrants stole the good job that would impress your would-be sex mommy.
(It's actually a lot it was my entire experience before I was like, what, 18?)
If I had a nickel for every time this happened to me I would have two nickels which isn't a lot but IT'S WEIRD THAT IT HAPPENED TWICE
I feel like maybe an undiscussed facet of transmasculinity is possibly women recognizing very young that you are "like a man" and trying to groom you to be "better" than the men they know and that you can't escape from the abuse because as a "girl" they have the right to do this to you
Paypal ramps up NSFW censorship by beginning to go after not just adult creators but also customers. In a lot of ways, this is even more terrifying than the adult creator bans. With them, it's only me at risk, but how do I navigate a space where putting a game on Itch might put customers at risk?
I feel like the haze of nostalgia might backfire if they're trained on accurate datasets. Do you really want a facsimile from Gran's early dementia Facebook posts?
Guy Economies exist in parallel with Mom Code Economies, come the rev they will merge into one grand post-gender Middle-Aged People Who Show Up And Do Stuff Economy and on that day utopia will finally be realized
They're actively targeting creators who call in & banning them, making it even more important to call if you're a customer & not a creator Tell them they shouldn't be dictating how you get to spend the money you put your blood, sweat, and tears into earning
I also feel like this just factually isn't true? Nasty hecklers win all the time, aren't they what got us into this mess
we are seeing the beginning of the widest censorship campaign in human history and everyone's asleep
*topaz, not citrine
I feel like the zircons and maybe rutile twins should be included but neither of these get real characterization either.
It legit makes me crazy, Bismuth gets done so dirty, Jasper is given no redeeming qualities, Rubies are defined by being meatheads, Citrine is done worse, really in the original series it's pretty awful, I haven't seen the new one but Jfc, what was up with that.
... I want to pick up each one, nuzzle, put back down, and pick up the net, lather, rinse, repeat.

WIP where the MC gets into the hivemind and has a vibe so toxic they immediately start killing everyone else in the hive
I've been running out of lip balm and holding off I guess has paid off. I don't know why Hello Kitty is an inu hariko (dog) and not either Pochacco or Cinnamorol (both dogs) or why My Melody (rabbit) is a maneki neko (cat).
I get it. But my first read was that if your marriage was never actually annulled and your domestic partnership was never legitimate I'm guessing probably has stupid and expensive consequences even if it was all for the same person, because this is how things usually shake out.
I dunno, I thought it was more demonstrative of an actual constructed catch-22 that people may not be aware of rather than "I followed the rules and got punished anyway". I am not sure people on the outside know what this ruling being invalid actually means beyond like, bathroom usage.
My main literary opinion is that it's good to read widely and deeply. Old books, new books. And read them with a critical eye. You CAN write without doing that, but you'll be better at it if you do.
This is just the trans experience btw.
Anyway it's weird how with all the complaints about Steven Universe out there none of them are that the narrative seems to treat masc gems as nonentities or pretty poorly, generally.
No. He hasn't been seen in public for the past couple days, his schedule is cleared for the weekend and he had to cancel plans, all the wild talk about heaven and Vance claiming he has the right experience, and then the pizza index, you know, it's nothing yet but it's all very suggestive.
I'm going to sleep, I hope you all have a good night 🥰
Pizza index is spiked??? What is going on????
People saying Trump is dying or possibly dead, but I for one would urge caution, because it is quite possible a second healtbar will appear as he enters his second phase and a gargantuan centipede will burst forth from his torso, so be careful of his new sweep attacks and toxic buildup from bites.
Mediumboi
Look, we'll know for sure it happened when they accidentally add a journalist to the "EMERGENCY POTUS DEAD" secret Signal chat
With no public appearances and no a scheduled appearances people are thinking he's dead or dying but more realistically it would be the perfect time for a medical procedure, which, you know, at 79 could have risks, idk.
Oops all butches
can i just say its still wild thst this happened and they only have us 30 seconds to get acquainted with this concept before he got K.O'D and the plot moved on. like he had those the entire time? he can FLOAT?? FLY???? what is he even doing? harvesting synapses? fucking pervert
Oh thank god. I kind of guessed it wasn't for kids but the art style is pretty ambiguous.
Oh wowww... who's the target audience for this?
I'm trying but the app won't let me :(
I should be allowed to delete other people's posts.
just found this. really like it
Jayce and Herald Viktor
Here is my entry for @caelumae 's DTIYS, where we we had to go with a Jayvik from one of their AUs, and I chose to do their Zombies AU, with a healthy carrier Viktor, and a Jayce who tries to protect him at all costs. #jaycetalis #jayce #jayvik #jaycexviktor #jaycearcane #viktorarcane #viktortalis
It's time to bring this up again
The only thing I can think is that in the public imagination aside from frothing fascists -- who are in power, true -- it's probably going to be hard to get the Columbine dangerous demo concept to stick because it's school shooting season in the US and there will probably be another one next week.
