First off! I wanna go ahead and drop some fun art stuff Iāve been doing as Iāve been watching Dragons Rising season 2, which Iāve been loving!
I did a version of Arin before but it wasnāt my favorite so a redo! More AlleyCat stuff and obligatory Cole, because I love him.
I do have more Ninjago Art I want to do (Still need to finish that Cole and Morro friend piece-) and I have some other fandom art I also want to do, but Iāll explain more under the cut as well as why Iāve been gone or a bit less active everywhere. This is optional you do not have to read under the cut!
TW// Transphobia
For those unaware I am a trans man, I go by a different name: both online and IRL (online for privacyās sake), I also work as a barista due to being a college student and needing to save money for moving away from my own transphobic parents. Thatās a whole other story. But at work there was a coworker of mine who was consistently transphobic towards me whenever we worked together. It had been going on since June of last year (The irony of it starting during pride month made me and my friends laugh) but it escalated after I returned from New York, so much so I had to go to management.
Myself. Management had been informed by my best friend (who also works with me) about it and was told it was āgossipā. Ok. Sure- So I informed management of the new incidents and was told I had options, the first being to have a meeting with me, the transphobe, and my manager to discuss the issues. I said no so my manager went to the DM to find another solution. To give even more context, the transphobe couldnāt even be transphobic to my face most times it was always told behind my back to my best friend.
Thatās how I knew my manager talked to the transphobe one on one, cause the transphobe right after the meeting went to said best friend. Telling her ānot to tell me as she didnāt want to start dramaā Cool, I feel so cool. I was very mad, went back to my manager with it, had that meeting with myself, the transphobe, and manager. Where my emotions were downplayed and the transphobe said she had ānever interacted with a trans person before and didnāt know what she said was wrong.ā OK.
SURE.
After that we assumed it was over, my manager made an incident report, but it didnāt stop the transphobe still kept talking behind my back to others. Despite me talking respectfully of her. More context all the talking behind my back happened at work while on the clock. After a while I just went about my day, then Ethics and Compliance called. They spoke to everyone involved, including me and I relayed more about my testimony. They said they would be investigating and I assumed it would take a while, then finally. I was informed that the transphobe was in fact fired.
This whole situation, along with other personal stuff going on with me, caused so much stress. To the point I tended to fallback into habits I had thought I fixed, mainly regarding my physical health. Even at points hating myself for just existing and having been born wrong.
Iām thankfully doing so much better now and have recently gotten diagnosed with Autism, something I knew I had but didnāt fully understand for a while. Iāve been getting better existing in a world knowing the people that are my blood hate me, knowing that eventually, I will never be able to be loved by my parents or sister. I have friends and coworkers who support me and I want to support other people in this community.
With that said Iām back to making more art! Iām building a portfolio for animation and to intern next year, I also will be trying to post more animations to here when I finish them! I also will still be active in the Ninjago fandom, Iāve loved this show since it came out in 2011 yāall can pry it from my cold dead hands-
But I do want to make more original work, I want to do more Star Wars work, QSMP art and animations, and more Musical Theater art whether it be Broadway or Indie productions. I hope people enjoy what I make, especially some of my original characters as Iāve gotten to work on Cybernetic more thanks to my animation class. Youāll see more of it as we go!
Thank you if youāve read this and thank you for supporting me!

So Iām actually working on doing some general simple loop animations right now and depending on how long it takes me to do them, I should have maybe two fully done ones by the weekend? Fingers crossed, I still have my actual homework to do-

Did some self indulgent artwork, with those out of context tshirt quotes
I own the āI ā¤ļø DILFSā one, I match with my irl best friend
Sidenote: even with the hospital sized painkillers, my wisdom teeth pain is kicking my ass-
Also also! I will do a full piece about every single hair color and cut Iāve had over the years since being able to cut it! Cause that was a fight and a half- but Iāve done some fun stuff, currently the pink is the most recent

More Great Comet Doodles! I promise I will actually finish a piece but Iām so sorry the voices-
I finally drew Natasha and Anatole! The queen and the scoundrel!
And obviously I have to draw Pierre, my favorite sad drunk, maybe I could make a ramble about why he is genuinely such a meaningful character to me, but for now know I squeeze him like a stress ball when Iām sad.

Love that I am obsessed with Great Comet and Sweeney Todd, cause itās like two opposite scales of the Josh Groban spectrumā
I am going to make more Great Comet art, cause I have fallen into this musical hard

āNo one wants to look at art of OCsā I donāt think thatās true at allā¦I follow people specifically to see their OCs literally all the time. Bring back being curious about peopleās OCs, asking questions about them and hyping them up like we did when we were teens
