do you think the obsession with ‘style consistency’ in online art communities is mostly caused by this idea that your art style needs to be easily marketable & recognizable as a brand (especially when you’re working as a freelancer). i see the /least/ amount of progress in my art whenever i try to aim for style consistency. i don’t know exactly where i’m going with this but i think there’s some sort of connection between trying to monetize/market your art & limiting your growth as an artist. and i think it’s very sad.

Buick Flamingo Show Car, 1961. One of Buick's entries in the final GM Motorama was a heavily accessorised Electra 225 Convertible. Non-standard items included pearlescent pink finish, a custom interior featuring two-tone upholstery in pink leather contrasted with cranberry brocade and a pivoting passenger seat, which could turn through 180º to face the rear passengers.

i love the idea of cody and obi-wan needing to go undercover for some mission that they do not trust anakin, rex, and ahsoka for. they somehow end up with a ridiculous backstory of being a married couple from a farming planet who'll spy on a separatist command base and rex—rex just can't fully wrap his head around it.
"so you and general kenobi are meant to be a lovers?"
"yes."
"and you're supposed to," rex waves his hand in a flimsy, confused motion, "play the part?"
"yes, vod. we've already done the debriefing. weren't you paying attention?"
"not in the slightest. what if the general wants to hold hands?"
"i'm prepared to make that sacrifice."
"what if he wants to kiss?"
"i'm prepared to make that sacrifice."
"what if he—"
"brother, you don't want to know how far i'll go for this mission. it's for the greater good. everyone is counting on obi-wan and i."
rex is quiet for a moment longer than necessary and it all clicks in that split second and a half it takes him to realize—because this is cody and rex knows him better than he knows the back of his own hand—that maybe cody won't be 'playing the part' of being in love with the general.
because cody has been in love with him since he stopped being "general kenobi" and became just "obi-wan".

later, ouyang thought esen wouldn't even had noticed: the moment his stillness of anticipation flicked into the stillness of shame, as quickly as capping a candle. his blood ran cold; his body burned. it was the feeling of a blade slid gently into his heart.
