Current Events > Who I am today

(+) Yeah! (+)

Hello. I am an agnostic non-binary Muslim. I have progressive politics.

I am a gamer, but I only really play Smash Bros. Ultimate these days. I recently purchased Shadow Generations, but like Xenoblade 3, idk if Ill get time to play it.

My favorite games are Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, Pokmon Crystal, Majoras Mask, and Xenoblade.

I like listening to a lot of music. My favorite artists are Radiohead, Death Grips, Elliott Smith, and Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Currently listening to Run the Jewels.

I am a comics fan. I like manga mostly but the last one I invested myself in was Bleach and/or Naruto. I think Fullmetal Alchemist or Rurouni Kenshin are the best manga overall. When it comes to Western comics my favorite is Superman Red Son.

I like anime. I think Evangelion, Madoka, both versions of FMA, Gurren Lagann, Dragon Ball, and Ghibli films like Mononoke are all goated.

I like movies. PT Anderson, Tarantino, Arronofsky, and Godzilla movies mostly.

I am an experimental artist, both musically and visually. Right now Im making a comic book and wish I had someone to share and bounce ideas off for my plot outlines. Finishing scenes by myself and having no one to react makes this lonely work.

I hope I find friends. Just practicing understanding myself and describing myself for when I start socializing again.

Also I am 32, and like weed and running.

Bump for friendship or chatting

Post or PM an example. How I see it might help you "dial it in" to the effect that you want it to have. :)

right now Im outlining scenes so I have concept art for characters and places but no pages yet. Let me post some of the outline

edit:

Premise: Elise is the Red Comet, a 30-year-old superhero demon born in Hell, traveled back to the past with God to fix his mistakes, by hopefully waking up the Angel Armor before Iblis/Satan does so first. God is not all-knowing or all-powerful in this story and cannot be killed. Elise is looking for allies to fight the Devil with God.

The world is 1,300 years in the future, it now snows in the future RGV, now known as the Epsilon, waters are taking land, and everyone is mostly gay with women coming in the form of jinn and trans girls.

Scenes:

0. The one where Elise beats up the prehistoric giant sloth jinn in El Salvador.

The fight unfolds in roughly five phases.

Physical fighting.
Tranquilizing.
More fighting.
Tazing.
Sealing in a lamp.

- First we see El Salvador in the future. Twilight.

- In El Salvador at night we see the city scape, nature, people bustling on the streets, some evidence of the countrys colors, animals that might be common there, food being served thats common there. dont forget music with swirling lyrics.

- Then we see a crack in the sky. People turn around. A rumble. People scream. The giant sloth jinn breaks through. The people run and scream.

The jinn lands and destroys buildings and sparks fires.

The jinn swoops its hand and destroys a building.

The jinn is about to step on some people, until its shown The Red Comet is holding him up and wont let him step on them.

We see Elise throw the beastie backwards. She transforms into a comet and destroys the sloths mask. Angered, it follows her outside of the city to a more wild area.

In the wild area she fires tranquilizers at the sloth. The sloth gets hit and then quickly spins around to hit her with its tail. Elise is surprised by how fast it is for a sloth and reveals shes fine due to her cybernetically-enhanced body.

She shapeshifts into a giant boa constrictor and crushes the sloth. She then becomes human and shanks it with her pitchfork, tazing it.

After tazing the sloth, Elise shapeshifts it into an apple to eat it. No point in sparing the more animalistic jinn, I think. Rehabilitating animals is a weird concept. Im not sure how far to go with the pro-animal theme.

1. The one where Elise builds a hotel for the now homeless people of that city in El Salvador.

Homer thanks Elise for her help. Elise says no problem. Moises says too bad our house was destroyed.

Elise puts her hands to the ground and transmutes hotels for them, with Oogle Ultra-Fiber. Its in her colors. They are grateful. Elise can do this since shes a shapeshifter. She can shift what she touches as well.

However, they discuss how they want to leave because they are afraid its only a matter of time before another Devemotherium invades.

Elise agrees and contemplates turning into a jet to get people across. But then she realizes shed still need papers and shelter.

Last bump

based Gurren Lagann enjoyer

Thanks man ^_^ gotta keep believing

Okay, do *this*, but show Elise making hard decisions and their personal cost (bc, irl, nothing is free).

This will go a long way to making your characters in their situation more relatable to other readers.

Sure thing. I can also provide the rest of the outline if youd like, there are 17 scenes total so far.

thanks for reading and making suggestions btw!

^ Start by seeing how what I suggested fits, or how it might fit, first. If you ask people to throw ideas at you and they keep doing it before you figure out how to incorporate any of them consistently you'll probably get frustrated. Projects die from being overwhelmed--too many choices, not enough focus.

Hello.

I am an eschatologist.

This is who I am today.

I study, the best that I can, the end time. Which is ongoing, from what I can tell. There are many who really hate any semblance of "its the end of the world as we know it."

I still love to study just how things will fall apart and more.

Who am I today is that I am this.

Simple as that.
