Can you believe I only found out now about Glassbears and I'm having so much fun with it!? Talking to one of your OC seems just great, I really missed out.
glassbears is actually! the third iteration! of that idea!
i tried to make one with lilac and got nothing due to me being no one at the time, and then later on i had one for basically ALL
glassbears was a bit of an experiment because every time i make an askblog(aside from the two mentioned above), there's at least a little bit of lore to be uncovered with questions. So I went out there and asked the dream overlords "can i have this bastard child" and they went "yeah ok" and i came back with ariel SDFGNSDJFGNKJ
im not good at making actual comics bc my brain gets lost mid production but the askblog type where it's usually 1-3 panels with one drawing + required engagement aka constant motivation boosts? its perfect AND its basically a form of roleplaying so extra fun on top. so the main idea was to present one as a webcomic and see where I could take it
the THING IS that I started it with basically nothing, not much planning or anything just my dream prophecy and the loose ends I tied together. so it wasn't much to think about -- but in the meantime i was also keeping this google doc that i just kept writing things on as questions came in and with them the ideas came up but i also kept on writing things that came independently on my head and it was eventually filled with drabbles, worldbuilding and other sorts of details that I loved to bits but I didn't know how I was going to handle. So basically. I overwhelmed myself with my ideas djfbgsdjbf
..but i guess its now the appropriate time to share the news that I have been giving the file a somewhat-thorough revamp bc i have been dying to bring it back to light. almost the entire plot and characters are complete ideas instead of vaguely scattered concepts and I Still Love It, A Lot
sometimes i share snips out of context w friends because its full of really deep quotes AND really funny comments(im funny). i dont wanna share stuff that can be easily tied to the plot but heres the good stuff
starting with the most telling line of them all;
Tumblr media
(prior to this theres like two pages of me debating with myself about what the fuck is up with ariel that I kept adding to over the years bc there were SO MANY routes I could take I wrote down ALL of them.............then a few months ago I wrote three paragraphs and closed that book.)
anyway heres one of my fucking favorites. never gets old
Tumblr media
heres the rawest line ive ever written in my life
Tumblr media
this pic is like right after a very heavy conversation
Tumblr media
(i did not follow my advice)
Tumblr media
its frustrating that I can't share the spicier stuff bc its got some raw lines and good jokes....... but for now.. i leave u..
..with a little guy
Tumblr media
i love him :)
