I'll just do this in hope @gooseworx will see it and hopefully, cheer her day up a little bit.
I don't know if it's because I'm sensitive but that response genuinely impacted me. I do have stories and characters that I have always hoped to turn into an actual show one day. Just trying to grasp how bad it must feel losing pride and passion for it it's hard on its own. And y'know, I'm literally just a girl that found TADC by coincidence. It has brought me so much joy to do these little drawings and trying to imagine these characters in silly situations and it just makes me sad to think that the very person that came up with it may not feel that joy anymore.
When I discovered indie animation I was like "wow, so it really is possible" and I got inspired me. I know content farms and toxic people are always to be expected, but the fact that is normal doesn't make it right nor less demotivating.
I have no idea if she'll see this but Miss @gooseworx if you do, I just hope and wish every time you come across any piece of art, made with heart and love, of any of your creations, you remember - at least a bit - how much your ideas inspired many of people for the good.
I just hope everything turns okay with the project for the sake of the author and that the joy that she felt coming up with it comes back again. I just wanted to get this message out in hope that maybe, just maybe, it will reach her and make her feel a little better. Behind every user there is an actual human being dealing with stuff, I feel like it's important to remember that once in a while.

Greetings fellow human, I recently found you and I must say, I love your writing and especially the layout of the posts.
I might also suggest an Idea for you with Alastor.
How 'bout a very passionate painter reader getting their nightly inspiration and staying up all night, also listening to loud music. And maybe being a little messy with the paint, like it somehow ending up on the face or different unusual spots.
Would love to see you write it in whatever form you prefer. Hope to read something from you soon.
And keep in mind, you're doing a great job and keep being amazing <3
Alastor x Painter! Reader
A/n: Omg I used to paint a lot and the places said paint would get?? How it ended up like literally all over me I’m not sure 😭😭 Also thank you so much !!
Warnings: None :3
Fluff✔️ Comfort❌ Angst❌ Smut❌

📻𖤐 Alastor finds you very talented and enjoys getting to see all of your little creations and masterpieces !!
📻𖤐 Bonus points if they’re a bit disturbing or dark, he’d love stuff like that (“Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable” — Cesar A. Cruz)
📻𖤐 The only thing he isn’t particularly fond of in regards to your passion, however, is how little sleep you’re getting because of it.
📻𖤐 Your sleep schedule is completely fucked because of how often you get inspiration while trying to go to bed at night, because of course you just have to get up and go paint it every time.
📻𖤐 Oh and how messy you can get whilst you paint… which Alastor doesn’t actually mind as much as he wants you to think he does.
📻𖤐 He can shake his head and tut about it all he wants but he can’t deny the fact that getting to clean you up is something he enjoys doing for you.
📻𖤐 Plus, it’s always entertaining to see all the peculiar places the paint ends up on you each time he does. From your cheeks to your arms to more unusual places like your ears… it genuinely never does get old in his eyes ♡
Tumblr media
It was another one of those nights. You were lying in your bed, trying to get some sleep and all of a sudden you got an amazing idea for a painting !! You couldn’t help but get up to go bring your ideas to life on a fresh canvas :-)
You went on with your usual routine, playing some music as you got your stuff all set up. Once everything was ready, off you were into your own little world as you painted away at 2:30 at night
Fortunately and unfortunately for Alastor, your room was right beside his. The walls were quite thin in the hotel.. even so, the loud music blaring wasn’t exactly hard to miss but it was even harder to fully relax with it playing.
You usually stopped your painting at around 7 or 8 in the morning so he figured this was going to be a long night….. he sighed to himself and went back to reading for a while (or at least attempting to for around 10 minutes or so.)
Eventually he did recognize a song you had playing, you’d played it for him before. It was after his time but he did quite like the melody
That’s when he got an idea of his own. his undying grin growing slightly as he bookmarked his book, set it to the side and made his way next door to your room.
He knocked on your door three times, waiting outside of it patiently as he heard you set your painting materials down. His ears twitched slightly.
Once you answered the door he waltzed inside cheerfully, not giving you a chance to speak or ask why he was here.
“Salutations my dear!! Up to the usual, I assume?” Alastor would ask, taking a curious look at the canvas you had been working on before glancing back over at you.
You gave him a smile and nodded “Yeah.. got a little inspiration and wanted to paint it before I forgot it.”
“Hm. Well, would it be too much to ask to pull you away from your work for a while?” He raised a brow as he tilted his head ever so slightly to the side, offering you his hand; offering a dance. And honestly you weren’t too surprised.
With a giggle and the grow of your smile, you happily took his hand and let him pull you closer to him as you two began to dance to the song playing in the background, your little masterpiece-in-progress long forgotten as you swayed with your favourite Radio Demon.

(joking) CW: AGGRESSIVE SUPPORT AND LOVE FOR CLOWN FROM THE MOD TEAM AND MEMBERS OVER AT OUR DISCORD SERVER !!
I have found joy in your little show that I rarely find in things. The overwhelming love and care I have not just for these specific characters but for your art and talent as a whole is astounding. I want you to know that your community, the good parts of it, support you in any endeavor you choose to take. Although this project may have blasted your popularity you are 3-dimensional, you are much more than the creator of welcome home. You are a multi-medial, skilled, talented, and strong artistic being. Throughout all of this I have had nothing but the utmost respect for you. I will continue to no matter what. Just know we over at The Welcome Home discord server have been following your art closely and appreciating every detail! Do what is best for you clown, and continue to do so! -Reggie
It's been a while since something has grabbed me like this... Welcome Home is one of the most precious things I have ever seen, the creation has and will it always have a place in my heart. Thank You creator for sharing this piece of you heart with us. But your safety is more important, I hope that you'll be safe. -Jax
"dear clown, from the heart of one fan to many others, i find so much comfort in your project that i hope that even when things just like now are awful, you know that there's people simultaneously supporting you in every step of the way! We can wait however long you believe is necessary, you deserve to feel respected with your own passion project! And with that to a close, i wish you well! Thank you for giving us a grand welcome home!" -gremints
dear clown, you don't know me. i don't know you either. but everything you've been working on? it's changed my life. and i know that sounds cliche and silly, but it's true. you've inspired me to keep working on my own passion projects, to keep going. because of you, i have found a little community to call home. because of you, i have rekindled my love of silliness and color and creativity. i cannot thank you enough. without you, i would not have found the friends i have now. whatever you do, i want you to know that we're here to support it. and i hope that wherever you go, you also find home. - moth
Hi you dont know me but im Bug, one of the mods^^, I just want to start my message with this, Before I found welcome home, everything for me was going downhill, I had lost so much that was important to me in less than 2 weeks, I couldn't get out of bed and I wasn't doing my favorite things anymore. I couldn't even smile, My eyes were tired and heavy from crying. But thanks to you, Clown. Wonderful you..and your beautiful vibrant creation. With characters I saw and adored right away. I've smiled, danced, sang my favorite songs again, met new and amazing friends & began to draw again. I felt happiness faster than I thought I would again. A peace from your life helped heal some of mine and I'm grateful. Your creations bring me and so many others joy, But even then it as not as important as you. Yes It brings many smiles to people and i hope that doesn't sound to overwhelming.. But although we can't fix the issue people have caused you, we can't apologize for those who don't respect the boundaries you've set and we can't take back what others have done we want you to know that no matter what, the good of the community will always Have what's best for you in mind, in our server we make sure all rules are followed and you're privacy and mental health is respected. Take as much time as you need to take it all in, relax, do what's best for clown. 💚 take care of yourself before aything else. We thank you for all you've done already. -Boogerbug
EVERYTHING BELOW WAS SUBMITTED BY MEMBERS !!
Hi Clown! Just another rando passing through! While I have known about your artwork for a few years now, I never dove into it until Welcome Home became popular, and I genuinely love the vision you have. Your other artwork is also phenominal and genuinely inspires me, and it always has, even before I discovered the Welcome Home website. Your character designs are impeccable, the way you portray the muppets is genuinely awesome and brings back a lot of good memories, as I grew up watching puppet shows. Explains one reason I enjoy your work doesn't it?Despite making godly artwork, people forget that you are a human like the rest of us. Most people who become famous or popular because of something they have done experience this and it is unfortunate, but there are some of us that know you have a life and are already struggling. Take the time you need to rejuvinate yourself and try not to let these people get to you, as hard as it is to do, as even I still struggle with this daily. These are your creations, and you deserve to have control over what happens with them, and the disrespect this slowly growing fanbase has for your requests is terrible. Hoping that things eventually improve on your end, especially since you already aren't in a safe environment, something I also understand. I've already planned on throwing some bucks at you through Ko-Fi once I open my new bank account, and even if I cant, I still want to help prove that you are worthy and deserve better than this. You are incredibly talented and I hope to see Welcome Home and all of your other works of art flourish over time! - Sunnie/Mizo
Now onto the big reveal....
Our server members as well as a few mods all banded to together to create a collage showing our appreciation and support for Clown during these rough times. I hope this can serve as a reminder that despite the shitty people out there, there is a large community who still very much respects and enjoys every aspect of Clowns artwork.

What? This is what I thought when he has V1's parents' same reaction.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
lucifer sees v1 as a work of art that has become an artist in itself - being once of god, unlike any other angel, lucifer has massive amounts of creativity and appreciation for what humanity achieved through their own god-given spark. but beyond that, for v1 in particular, he sees something that has moved past its makers, it has forged its own path in defiance of what it was made for. he is fascinated by its mind, its construction, its life as something that may or may not have a soul (for what constitutes a soul, even lucifer does not know). but importantly it is a life not made by god, it is removed from him, and he wants to meet what god did not create. he wants to see what a full, vibrant experience it has, and v1 sure does. not disappoint lol so animalistic in behavior but with a razor-sharp mind, its first action is probably to challenge him to a one-on-one fight - not a surprise, given how much he knows through hell itself, but he worries he won't be an impressive match for it. he had been inert for so long and really...lucifer was never a warrior, his strength bolstered purely by his closeness to god. still, like anyone that can face v1 and live to tell about it, he finds the fight inspired, unpredictable, and a beautiful insight into a mind he cannot understand despite his godly knowledge. he is not moved by battle, but he can feel how v1 is, its emotions showing through and resonating within lucifer so that he gains insight into its passion. v1 finds its fascination in turn, recognizing right away that lucifer is not a fighter yet there is a disjointed fluidity in his movement, his choices largely defensive and illusory - he wouldn't be v1's first choice as an opponent, though his skillset is unique enough that it doesn't get bored. they stand as two perfect creations, the pinnacle of what god and man could create, and they find interest in the other purely for how alien they are. lucifer made for love and creation, v1 for apathy and destruction, curious of the other as they have been steeped in the role of their opposite.
gabriel doesn't ever really say anything to lucifer about his relationship with v1, mostly figuring it wouldn't be of any relevance to him as he seems preoccupied with attending to his fallen angels. but also...gabriel's aware that lucifer knows most of what's happened in hell and so his partnership with v1 likely isn't a secret to him. unsurprisingly, lucifer doesn't broach the topic for some time, his talks with gabriel a bit sparing and distant with his mind so attuned now to a self-centered focus in his isolation (GENUINELY does not remember how to talk to other people). gabriel actually begins to think he might not even have an opinion on their relationship, but he finds out that's quite far from the truth once lucifer is able to acknowledge more outside of himself. it's just...not what gabriel expected, if he expected anything at all. lucifer, already coming in with an appreciation of the bizarre, is actually happy for what v1 and gabriel have together. their relationship entirely defies the "natural" order of things, an act that would have been condemned fully by god and denied even as possible by v1's makers. he is glad too to see that love led gabriel to something better, it allowed him to finally follow what his heart had been telling him for all this time. it is a very rare thing to find such a kindred spirit and then to defy everything you were told you are in pursuit of that....and lucifer can find nothing more noble in the world than that. so while he continues to harbor his own issues with gabriel, he believes v1 has improved him by bounds and that he is now far more "palatable" than his siblings. gabriel has no idea how to take this, but v1 labels it an "endorsement" of its "personality"

My One-Year Anniversary
One year ago today, I wrote my very first piece of House of the Dragon fanfiction.
My journey in fanfiction has been a long one. I started reading fan works all the way back in 2009 at the age of 12. I even remember the site: Harry Potter Fanfiction Archive. Wow. Wild! Of course, I naturally gravitated toward Dramione works—because that’s what you did, right? Since then, my tastes have diversified; evolved, even. Thank god.
Until I hopped onto Tumblr and started writing, I wasn’t an active member of any fan community. I was a passive lurker, hiding my enjoyment of fan works from everyone and everything. One of my favourite fandoms to read for was Game of Thrones; I particularly enjoyed the Jonsa works and any work where Daenerys claimed the Iron Throne (#JusticeForDany!). I will say that, as much as I enjoyed it, there were no characters who truly ignited my interest.
Then, House of the Dragon hit. Matt Smith’s portrayal of Daemon is just… electric. I suppose my very first thank-you is to him for bringing the character to our screens. Holy shit. Toxic, passionate, magnetic… everything I want in a fictional man! Daemon Targaryen definitely awoke something in me. I spent about a month trawling the Tumblr and AO3 feeds for Daemon x OC/ Reader works, seeking to satisfy my thirst. Daemyra is such a charismatic pairing in canon, but I could never really see myself in Rhaenyra’s shoes; she’s so forward in a way I’m not. So many of the works at that time were centred on badass powerful OCs, and I just… couldn’t relate. Thus,I officially opened my AO3 account and started a side-blog on Tumblr, posting my first work.
It was a smut piece between Daemon and a Reader-insert niece, and one of my first genuine attempts at writing smut - what is now today the second chapter of dōnus riñus (sweet girl) - and was surprised to receive positive feedback from it, given the um, dodgy themes. It spurred me to go back and write a chapter leading up to it, and then write another three chapters post-chapter 2. Then, people wanted to know how Reader and Daemon got together; I wrote gevivys (beauty) from his perspective in an absolute flurry of insanity, pushing out like a chapter a day. It all blew up - I never expected it to, and it is still incredibly surprising to me that people are wanting to read a protracted series about the shit I make these characters do! From there, ilībītsos (little slut) was underway, which was such a fun exercise in dirtybadwrong that I thoroughly enjoyed! Pretty much straight away, I continued on with ñuhus prumȳs (my heart), which I might say is my favourite instalment of the bunch due to the sheer amount of research I put into it. I'm particularly proud of that one, I must say!
Of course, this makes it sound quick. It wasn't - I have quite a busy personal life with my work, so I've not been the quickest at updating. I'm eternally fucking grateful to have an audience that completely doesn't care how often I update, so long as I'm proud of what I'm putting out at the end; I know how rare that is, and I'm absolutely boggled by you all. My squishies. I love you!
Reader has become Babey now - she has her own, like, following? IDK. It's insane to me. She doesn't even have a name, and yet there are so many people who have reached out to me to thirst over her or to talk about her or to share what she means to them. A lot of people have really resonated with the way she struggles with powerlessness and how, in some ways, she's learned to find strength for herself in a world that gives her so little opportunity to do so. I'm so incredibly glad she is a character that people can relate to. She's like my baby, my first genuine creation, and it is a privilege and honour to get to talk about her on here. I still cannot believe there are people out there willing to make art or edits or just send in asks about her. It's completely wild!
I have endless gratitude for so many people throughout the creation of this series, but we must all begin (and end) somewhere. I’d like to start by thanking my first ‘regular’, Wilma, for her enthusiasm and engagement with me as I first started on this journey. She definitely encouraged me to keep on writing. It was thrilling to wake up to another comment or ask from her about the series! If not for Wilma, I don’t think the series would’ve gotten off the ground as it has.
Thank you to my very first friend in fandom. I’ve only ever known this person as ‘Lemon’—they reached out to me when I was well and truly established during the writing of ilībītsos (little slut), helping me to conceptualise the idea for the third chapter of that instalment. They then jumped aboard as a writer, and so much of my earlier drive to write was inspired by them. If not for their messages and their companionship, I wouldn’t have begun to build the community I have now. They are still one of my fandom besties, and I love them dearly.
There are several important people I’d like to thank for being absolute superstars, and whose passion for fandom has impacted mine so greatly. Aubrey, Pancake, AQ—I’ve adored each and every comment you’ve left me, and it’s been such an incredible experience to get to know you all as people. Mage, Hannah—y’all are amazing writers and amazing human beings, and I’m so grateful to have gotten to know you. Bel, Fae, Mars, Mel, Rach—you’re groovy, and hanging out with you in Discord is the bomb-dot-com. If I'm leaving people out, my bad!
I would be remiss, of course, if I didn’t mention one particular person. We connected through a mutual friend (at the time), and eventually bonded over our love of being incredibly nasty, feral and disgusting over our love of these Targ boys. Pretty sure we speak at least every single day, and I can’t say how many times I’ve relied on her for input on a chapter or a specific plot point I’m planning. Her approval means everything to me, and so I can’t possibly go without crediting her as a major influence on this story. Ange—Angela—thank you. You’ve become one of my best friends, fandom and IRL. I absolutely love you to bits.
And, lastly, I want to thank everyone who has read my works along the way. It is still insane to me that there are people who think my writing is interesting enough to keep reading, let alone offer the outpouring of support I’ve received. It is one of the greatest parts of my day to be able to connect with others over a universe I’ve crafted, and the fact that people genuinely want to know these things just stuns me. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Your encouragement means everything to me.
So, it's been one year. I'm still going, ahahaha! Here's to (hopefully) more years to come! I love you guys!

Hi! I'd like to be called 🎂 anon if that's okay.
Here's my request. Could I request Vil and Rook with a pâtissier s/o in a poly relationship?
~Thank you for your request!
Tumblr media
The Pâtissier!
Vil x Rook x gn!reader
Tw: polyamory
Wordcount: 468
Side Note: Of course you can be 🎂 anon! Idk if your still here but sry this took me so long! I apologize that this is quite short but I really didn't have too many ideas for this. I'm sorry if this didn't turn out well!
Tumblr media
A pâtissier?
Well…
Vil and Rook have very different but also very similar ways of expressing their love for you and that includes the way they express their feelings about you being a pâtissier.
Rook will freely compliment your work. He endlessly tells you about how everything you make is a work of art. He especially loves to watch you work! He finds inspiration in the way your hands move and the way you look when you're so focused on getting everything just right.
If you're looking for another person who will give you genuine feedback on your work but won't go on an endless spiel of how beautiful your work is, Vil is your guy. He can be a bit harsh without realizing it sometimes but at least you can rest assured that when he does compliment your work he genuinely means it.
There are times where no matter how hard you try to make something it just never comes out right and Rook will always be the first to encourage you to keep trying. He'll remind you that making these pastries and cakes is no easy feat and you shouldn't ever be too hard on yourself. Rook may even help you figure out what you're doing wrong. He may not be a pâtissier himself but he knows a few things and even though some of his ideas may be a bit… odd, they just might work.
Of course, after spending so much time baking you'll want someone to try it! Rook will gladly try anything you make. While Rook himself may not be an expert cook or anything, he knows when something is made well and he has quite a refined palate. He'll give you constructive criticism on how you could improve the look and flavor so that one day you may blow him away with how beautiful your creations taste!
I think it's obvious to anyone that Vil also has a taste for luxury however, Vil won't be so quick to try your creations. It's not out of any kind of disrespect but more so because of his strict diet. Sometimes he'll try it but most of the time he'll decline. Vil is a lot better at critiquing the visual appearance of your creations. They say that people eat with their eyes first and wow, does Vil know how to make something visually appealing!
Both Vil and Rook are quite creative. Rook is a little more out there in his ideas though. They can both greatly help you come up with ideas you may have never considered or even thought of.
They both love you and what you do. Whether your works are a success or a fail, as long as you keep doing what you're passionate about they'll always be there to support you!

A Letter to Markiplier
Not that he’ll ever see it. But that’s okay.
I’m going through some of the toughest times in my life right now. My job is bad, so I’m looking for another. My roommates are fighting so much, I’m looking to move. My car needs repairs I can’t afford. I’m scared I won’t make rent. My mental health, and that of a lot of people around me, is bad. I’ve given up my creative hobbies and my creative sparks because I don’t have it in me, and I reached a point of hopelessness. A “why bother? I have more important things to focus on.”
And during all this, during the worst days of my life so far, I isolated to my room. I looked for idle background noise, and I found… an old stream of Markipliers I never finished. His explanation stream for Who Killed Markiplier. I put it on, and found myself sucked back into the world of YouTuber egos and stories, remembering why I loved this stuff so much when it came out. I went and watched Wilford Motherloving Warfstache, and it’s stream. Damien and it’s stream. Then Heist, Heists stream, In Space and it’s stream. I spent a few days just consuming content and lore and breakdowns. I crafted theories, I drew art, I found something that sparked joy.
In the worst days of my life so far, Markiplier made me feel less hopeless, and less alone.
In each of his streams about these projects, he talks about the creation process and he encourages his fans to genuinely go out there and make their own projects. To not give up hope. To chase their creative sides and grab on and they, too, can make things they’re proud of. I know he isn’t talking to me directly, but when I tell you that hearing this, this that sounded so genuine, brought inspiration and color back into this very depressing stage of my life, know how much I mean it. I feel like I can keep up with my own stories now. I feel like I need to stop waiting to do my own creative stuff.
In Space felt like a love letter to his fans, with all the references to things he’s done and memes that made him viral. I saw this. I hold this idea close to my heart.
Mark. Thank you. I can’t be more genuine when I say this. Seeing your passion, your creativity, your genuine care for your fans and your projects and the people you work with… it has touched me in a very, very important and impactful way while I’m struggling in my own life. I’m picking up my art tablet, and my writing pen. I’m sewing my larp costumes again. I know there’s an end to this tunnel, and I know I can reach it.
Is it silly to be this inspired, this touched, by someone who’s never met me, who won’t read this? Maybe.
Does that make it any less real, though?

Thank you!
As Madness Day comes to a close, I wanna leave a little thank you to everyone for making this a (yet another) awesome Madness Day!
SO many different and awesome pieces of art and animation were showcased tonight and I'm certain we didn't even get through the HALF of it. Even after all the Friday Night Funkin' hype has fallen off to the wayside, so many of you have chosen to stick around and have gotten together to share all of your wonderful creations with us. It's so goddamn overwhelming in the BEST way possible, I could not be any more elated to be a part of this community and Madness Day, time and time again, reminds me of why I feel that way even now.
I will admit my time in this community has been met with some rough patches, times where I've considered leaving, hanging up the hat, but every year my spirits are recharged and rejuvenated by the absolute torrent of love and passion for Madness Combat that is displayed on this day. Every single negative experience I've ever had in this community gets the absolute SHIT kicked out of it by just how many awesome, genuine, talented people there are. Like, seriously, words cannot even BEGIN to describe just how unrelentingly badass you all are.
Again, thank YOU for all of your wonderful submissions, I look forward to looking at more of them tomorrow, and I'm damn excited to see what you have in store for next year.
Happy Madness Day!

I just wanna thank you guys for all your support lately, it genuinely means a lot to me. The Tales of Arcadia fandom is one of the most supportive ones I’ve ever been in and you guys rule. Truly.
Gonna be honest I’m surprised you guys were so welcoming after the first post I made back in August included me calling the fandom dead (cannot look at that art without feeling shame aha)
Art has always been a passion of mine, and I love that I have the opportunity to share those creations with you. From the whacky meme redraws, to the pain of drawing Jim’s armour (which I swore I wouldn’t draw again and then I did). And reading reblogs and the hashtags that are so nice and make me smile like an idiot give me so much motivation.
Getting to talk about with people who understand what I’m saying. It’s like a breath of fresh air.
This is silly but you guys keep me going and yeah ♥️

a heart of gold 💛
throughout our lives, each of us has left our unique footprints in the world.
we are not perfect. sometimes we make mistakes, mess things up. but at the end of the day, we are just people trying to do good with what we have.
the good things we have done might be trivial. a pat on someone's shoulder, an encouragement, a helping hand.
or it might be life-changing. sometimes all you need to do to touch a heart is to be willing to listen.
let this reading show you the good things you've done or inspired, so that you know that you too, are a light in the world.
Pick-a-Pile — “The good you've done or inspired”

Cards: Transformation, Shine from Within
You're likely someone who enjoys complimenting others and are not shy to talk about what you like about them. You do so in an encouraging, sincere way that is very heartwarming. People love your energy because you feel so familiar in a big sister/brother/sibling way. They can't help but be drawn to you. Your presence is a fountain of comfort. You embrace the differences in others without hesitation, fully accepting them with love. You are a very genuine person, people see it in your smile, your actions and your words. They can see that you are genuinely interested to learn about them and help them in what ways you can.
You might have a soft voice or like to speak in a softer, but firm tone. People can hear the smile in your voice, they instantly feel calmer when they hear you speak. You might have a job where you use your voice a lot and you are excellent at that. You carry yourself in an assertive but fluid manner like a serene pond blessed with soft rays of the morning sun. You inspire kindness in people. Your actions and the love you made them feel teach them why kindness is important. It is in your heart always, and it shines outwards in rays so beautiful and bright. At the end of their days, people would still remember you and how you made them feel.
You are an artistic person. You like to express yourself with art and singing. I specifically hear acapella. You might perform on stage sometimes. It is your passion. Your performances and your artwork touch people's hearts so much. You put your heart into creating and people see that. They see your sincerity and what you are wanting to express through your creations. They are intrigued about you and want to see just how such visions form in you and what you are inspired by when you create such pieces. They feel so much sweetness and warmth when they gaze upon what you made. You inspire some to take up what you do. They view you as an example and a reason to continue pursuing art or singing. If I can describe in colours the exact feelings they have for you, it would a night sky splashed with blue, green and pink fireworks. The fireworks look like watercolour splashes, for with your softness you inspire softness in others too.
Tumblr media
Pile 2
Cards: Light, Music
Your energy is interesting - it is soft like leaves that rustle in the wind, it is strong like trees that have stood for thousands of years - unrelenting to the elements. You remind me of a wood nymph, you might enjoy nature, very earth-aligned. Your essence is one to be savoured softly and patiently, for it runs through the woods like a fairy's laughter, and hums the most nostalgic songs like the oldest oak trees.
You are always generous with the time on your hands. You enjoy guiding others with what you know. You might be an experienced person in circles you join so you have plenty of opportunities to encounter newbies new to what you do. You are wise and patient, never arrogant or selfish. You speak to those willing to listen. You have a temper in you that you don't often show, yet those who know you deeply can read the signs of your annoyance just by the edge in your tone, the huff under your breath, even your quickening pace.
You are like a mother hen to those you love. You are protective, practical and nurturing. Those who come under your wing will learn to respect you wholeheartedly and listen to what you say because they know they can trust you. You always look put together, always have the “I know what I'm doing” vibe even though you might be a little messy here and there. You like to write notes and to-do lists just so you can be more organised.
You're an excellent cook. People love that they can taste their home in your food. You are a very warm, hospitable person and this translates to your cooking. People are amazed with how you're able to keep your cool in all situations, and how you always manage to give the soundest advice. You are a shelter for people who need one, and a well of assurance for people who find comfort in your friendship. They know they can count on you.
All of the above was read from the Light card. As I gaze at the Music card the energy is totally different from Light, which is surprising. I feel like I'm reading for an entirely different person/group. This energy is like walking into a dense and dark forest that stretches on and on, where strange flickers of light whisper across, a sweet scent of anticipation lingers in the air. Far away, I hear tribal music and merry dancing. Now it dawns on me that this is your shadow self coming through. If the above resonates with you, I'm interested to know if the rest below does.
Your soul is old, tinged with the merriment of your past lives/selves. You are the wildfire that never rests, your laughter drums the ever-growing sense of adventure. You might have an old soul but your spirit is so young and bold! This essence is so ingrained in you that it is the driving force behind your enthusiasm for all things that make you feel alive. You inspire people to throw every doubt behind and just celebrate life as it is, chasing after what gives life a purpose. This drive is what sets you apart. Your passion is so contagious, you give people an unconscious ❗ in their hearts as soon as they encounter you! Life is truly amazing with you in it.
Tumblr media
Pile 3
Cards: Hidden Depths, Protection
I'm seeing a lot of lush green energy, incense and the act of honouring nature. You might be a spiritual person; your energy smells like the meeting of a meadow with the ocean. You are a breath of fresh air to people around you. They find you magnetic and otherworldly, there is just something ethereal about you that they can't pinpoint. You have a gentle soul, but you are far from fragile. You have an iron heart that opens up like a flower, because while you are a strong person who has endured many hardships, you still believe in kindness. You are sincere with people. You might feel that you put on a mask with even your closest friends though. This is because while you love them wholeheartedly, you have a problem opening up emotionally to people. It feels like there's a bridge between your heart and others', it is difficult to put your feelings into words. You're also afraid that they wouldn't understand what you feel. You don't want your heart broken, you'd rather enjoy the mysterious shroud you have on you. There are layers upon layers in your heart. Sometimes you wish for a listener but most of the time you find comfort in your solitude. You have very accurate intuition, so much so that people are shocked by just how much you know.
You feel the wanderlust so much. Sometimes you just want to disappear into the woods a little and live your best life there. Who cares about the real world? You might not realise it but many find your dreaminess very freeing. You feel very childlike and simple in the best of ways. You make people realise that it's okay to slow down and enjoy the sunset a little more, indulge in their happiness, be more in the moment. You are a very good listener; your friends and even strangers find it easy to speak their heart to you. You are gentle and nonjudgmental. They feel safe in your tenderness. Some of them - your closest friends/family - just hope that you can feel safe in theirs too.
In the past, you have always been at the right place at the right time to help others, whether it is sending them what they need, returning a lost object, giving your opinion or just being there with them. They want to thank you. They say that you are a rare gem, that if it weren't for you they'd surely not be able to be where they are now. This feels so sincere and heartfelt. For some of you, I feel that they've been able to thank you in person and you still keep in contact even to this day. For some of you they weren't able to reach you but they constantly keep their gratitude in their heart. I see a phone, flowers, a letter box and a bicycle (?). They might have wanted to reach out to you but you have moved.
I also see pregnancy and delivering a baby. You might be a nurse, and this person who wants to thank you have been your patient.
You are a healer. You wish for the best for others. Your energy is healing and comforting to be around. Animals love you so much. You have helped many unknowingly just by wishing them well or having a lot of love or sympathy for them. Some of you work in the medical field where you're able to give physical healing. Your heart is wise, true and kind, Pile 3. I can feel your love radiating through you. There is a hint of lingering sadness though, like you're not sure where to go, or whether you should stay. You're not sure what to choose. What does your heart say? You can't think for others all the time. This is the chance to pursue your happiness, it's the right thing to prioritise your own happiness and well-being. If you still feel lost, simply go where you wish to be. I wish you a lot of love and happiness.
Tumblr media
Pile 4
Cards: Life Energy, Flourish, Abundance
Right away I get regal energy from this pile. You shine so brightly, you are like a pearl among your peers. They see you as a role model, a dream, a golden standard to aspire to. You are a trendsetter. Popularity is something that comes natural to you because of your charm and leadership qualities. You embody the energy of the sun and the flowers that thrive under it. You glow with fierceness, chasing after your goals like a hunter/huntress. Once you've decided on a goal, you set your mind to win it, not try to. You're like a lion/lioness. Few could emulate your talents and confidence because they originate from your core identity. You are not only an excellent leader who leads by example and action, you also inspire others to release their inner power. They learn so much from you just by observing you. Even after they stop seeing you you stay on their minds as an inspiration and a constant reminder to never give themselves up. You inspire people to set higher standards for themselves. You might be blunt and some might have their feelings hurt because you tell what they need to hear, not what they want to hear. Regardless, those who see you as inspiration will take after your strength.
The Flourish card gives me green finger energy. I sense three things from it; you might resonate with any of these. I feel that some of you are excellent with plants. What you plant blooms beautifully. The Fae are drawn to your energy and like to linger by your garden. You feel very energetically aligned with them and they see you as someone curious they'd like to befriend, if not just "hang out" as garden neighbours hehe. Honey seems to be significant here. They enjoy it very much.
For others of you, you carry the essence of the lotus. This plant grows from the mud untainted. It symbolises inner strength, blossoming beautifully against a harsh upbringing or environment, and choosing to speak your truth. For yet others of you, the heartbreak that lingers in your heart is coming to an end soon. You are healing, you are making progress that nobody but you see. I would like to give you a hug! The bad times are over. You are much stronger in spirit, and much softer in heart. Your eyes might well up with tears but vulnerability is one of your greatest strengths. You feel so deeply and so honestly. Did you know that when people gaze in your eyes they see your softness and strength at the same time? You are one to marvel at because you feel and love so deeply. You already have great friends by your side, and soon more true friends will come along. They will see the real you and they will cherish you. They won't give up on you. These are friendships that last for a lifetime.
Now onto the third card. You are so amazingly good at manifestation. You need only hold your intent, it's like your magic wand so to speak. You know how to turn your desires into reality. You have an innate sense of the dynamics between the mental and the physical. You are forward thinking and you see the far future, not just the near. You don't hold onto instant gratification. You value your long term investments. Others appreciate your sharp eye. They trust what you speak. They are confident when you take the lead. A word of advice for those who feel less confident: cliché, yes, but don't let your self doubt dim your shine.

Did anyone inspire you to start creating the rainworld comics? Or was it just something you decided to do some day
The comics was a small snowball, and then it rolled down the hill to make a great snowman.
It started from the fateful heist and then i slowly realized i genuinely enjoyed making this kinda stuff. for a very long time, ive been wanting to make a long running comic series, but could never find a footing. it always ends at chapter one... many abandoned projects.
then something great happened. see, Shipping Container, a subcommunity of rw shippers, was all started from a thread in art-discussion in the main rain world discord. ship talk was practically everywhere and there were a lot of annoyed people so the thread was made to lower the talks. while i was not the first shipper, i was the person responsible for the creation of this subcommunity. (not shippers as a whole in the fandom- just these ones)
many people long gone nowadays. differences, arguments, drama (cough), or just understandable drifting. i remember a lot of them and i still think of them nostalgically- i miss them ofc- such is the life of a clairvoyant. but a lot of the ogs stayed and we continue to have new members. many of them became my friends.
anyway- during this thread's aliveness (yes the thread was later defunct after we establish the server), we were fucking around and i proposed we dub my anthro comics. we did so in the public vcs. chaos and such but it was an awesome experience. following Hunt and Heretic, it became one of my reasons to make the comics. not only for myself and my enjoyment, but for my friends to enjoy reading and dub it together!
i am very passionate about my au. it may be a lot different from the source material, but- who cares? im having fun. my friends are having fun. we ship this and that. make theories. make designs. build a world that is nonexistent but has characters that feel real to us in some form. all is well in the world of rain.
its always been something silly. something personal. something that means everything to me.
even though ive been through horrible things, i love this fandom and its people, and ofc i would do anything to give back the happiness it gave to me. i genuinely appreciate every single person in this fandom, unless they have hurt me or others.
but for now, i need to take breaks. i need to respect myself more and i need to set boundaries.
im sorry that for various instances, i appear cold or unreadable or dramatic. thank you.

So, What Do We Do Now Guys?
I'll admit, I'm a bit lost at the moment. I'm seeing people decide what they want to do that they feel is best for the fandom and its creator, and I am inclined to agree with all sides here. Some are deciding to put the topic down and not post for a while until things cool off. Some are deciding to continue with their creations to help move forward past this and create a sense of normalcy back into the fandom. Others are angry and are validly expressing their anger about the situation. Some people are still discovering it all as we speak!
As I said in my previous post, it is also personal to me. Welcome Home has become a starting point for my ability to engage with a fandom, something I have personally denied myself for years on this platform out of the awareness and understanding of how fandoms (and the internet as a whole!) work. Yes, I missed out on the Onceler fandom, the Undertale fandom, the Supernatural fandom, the FNAF fandom, all of it. I know and speak of the old ways! Mwahaha!
In all seriousness though, I don't often engage with fandoms because, in my mind, I develop deep relationships with the concepts and ideas of my chosen media, and sharing my love for something with the world is terrifying. This fandom I have chosen to engage with has become one of the most intense and complex fanbases I've seen thus far, so I cannot even imagine what @partycoffin is going through.
But guys... Home is on Fire. And the fire is spreading. It's passion, its love, it's intimacy, it's anger, it's betrayal, it's every emotion you can ever imagine in a rainbow-fueled escapade, and it's burning fast.
I do not want to see this beautiful creation die, and as long as Clown wishes to keep going, I want to work to make things better, under their wishes and guidance.
Because to me, Welcome Home represents a chance to create something inclusive and beautiful for both new and old generations of internet users. I see it as the first concept to genuinely depict authentic LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent characters in an animated, horror-themed space, allowing people to find safe spaces with these characters to express their identities and creativity with the world. What I hope for from this fandom is that we can help create safe spaces for @partycoffin and everyone who wants to protect and enjoy their work. Give them and us a Home that is filled with a positive, loving community that supports one another. Give them the anonymity and safety they need to feel at home within themselves to do as they see fit. Most of all, it's important to remember that Welcome Home means something to them, to its creator, and the power to move and change this fandom is in their puppet-shaped hands.
Everything in my previous post still stands, and there is no one right answer to this. That will come in time. But my suggestion right now? Choose what you think is best for yourself because that is what you can control.
And for me? I want to create and love people's art expressing my relationship with it because fandoms, to me, are about finding meaning in people's work that helps shape and influence who you are. My small, unpolished art is my expression of wanting home when I never felt like I had one, to find a place to belong and feel safe to express my neurodivergent, queer self, and to not feel alone. While I may not post much from here on after, I want to continue moving forward and see this through.
(I will gladly take this post down if any of this is out of line. I just wish to help people in any way I can. ^_^)

Best Underrated Anime Group A Round 1: #A2 vs #A7
#A2: Girls do DIY together, but after a new industrial revolution
This series takes place after the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Serufu and her childhood friend Miku/“Purin” both applied to an elite school, where advanced technologies are incorporated into the curriculum. The tech-savvy Purin is accepted into the school, but accident-prone Serufu is rejected and enters a traditional school instead, driving a wedge into their friendship.
On her way to class one day, Serufu encounters Rei, who has a passion for old-fashioned crafts and is the head of the school’s Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Club—which is in danger of closing due to a lack of members. Realizing that this may be her chance to repair her relationship with Purin, Serufu joins the club in hopes of creating projects that could bring them together once more.
Tumblr media
#A7: Immortal being learns what it’s like to be human
This show is about an immortal being learning of death, life, and what it means to be human. They’re able to shapeshift into anything they create an emotional bond with, but with a cost: if they wish to transform into a living being, including people, that person has to have died.
Titles, propagandas, trailers, and poll under the cut!
Tumblr media
#A2: Do it Yourself!!
youtube
Propaganda:
It’s just a really feel-good series with some really good characters. I adore all of the characters and their dynamics with each other, especially the main dynamic between Serufu and Purin as it develops. I’m a really big fan of the show’s angle on stuff such as do-it-yourself crafts following another industrial revolution, just because it does frequently bring up the question of “What’s the point of DIY if in a year or two/maybe even now a robot could recreate the exact same result?” through characters like Purin (who is the major character with the lowest opinion on these kinds of crafts at the start, since she’s in the technologically advanced school and has beliefs more in line with the efficacy of technology rather than the joy of human creation), with the short answer largely being because it’s just fun!
I first watched this show before I saw a lot of AI stuff intruding upon art and rewatching it after sure was fun, because I love its ideas on the worth of doing stuff that machinery could do much faster. It’s not super complex or emotional, but that largely goes in its favor, because it really doesn’t need to be those. It’s just a fun little anime about a bunch of girls having fun together through one shared hobby that some of them had from the start and some of them adopted. I also love the opening, and the ending is a massive comfort song for me. The series can also be very funny at points, and is usually super heartwarming.
Trigger Warnings: None.
Tumblr media
#A7: To Your Eternity (Fumetsu no Anata e)
youtube
Propaganda:
I don’t think I’ve ever watched an anime that has meant so much. Fushi’s journey from being born as nothing and without emotions, to becoming a genuine, real person who loves and cries is so special to me. The constant war he’s in between being too human and being not human at all is written so well—for him to love so much it hurts, leading him to isolate himself for years on end, for him to want to make friends, to love, but too afraid of them leaving and eventually dying to meet anyone new. For him to get so detached from life and death and the cycle it perpetuates that he loses understanding of why human life is so special—why should he save people, if they will die anyway? Why should he save them, if he can just bring them back to life, if he can just become them? The constant cycle of him learning to love again, and learning to treasure life again, only to lose it once he’s experienced death in a new and agonizing way. It’s about love, and it’s about humanity. Always.
Trigger Warnings: Animal Cruelty/Death, Child Abuse, Graphic Depictions of Cruelty/Violence/Gore, Racism, Rape/Non-Con, Self-Harm, Suicide
All TW’s apply to the protagonists, except child abuse and the racism. The world itself has hints of racism/discrimination throughout the anime, and not directly towards the protagonist. As for the rape, an antagonist attempts to rape the protagonist. There is a ton of self harm (protagonist and side characters) and blood as there is a lot of wars also happening in the anime
Tumblr media
If you’re reblogging and adding your own propaganda, please tag me @best-underrated-anime so that I’ll be sure to see it.

About what you and the other anon were talking about I don't think chaggie fan content isn't only from obligation and does come from a place of genuine love just like charlastor, even tho I don't ship it much myself the way i see a lot chaggie lovers talk about it/make art for it despite its poor writing is real love for the ship, both shippers really do care for their ships from my experience
You know what? You got me there. I phrased that very poorly.
I don't actually doubt the sincerity behind the fan creations for chaggie, though I definitely see why my wording could have insinuated that.
I think I'm just frustrated that chaggie got done so dirty in the show that now the fandom basically has to pick up the slack. That doesn't have to mean that they're not doing so with sincerity or passion, I'm just sad that they have to do it at all in order to have basically anything worthwhile and that sentiment is what I actually meant to express in response to that last ask ^^"
I mean-
ultimately so do we as non-canon ships, but we go into them fully aware that our pairings won't be catered to by canon at least? Like we expect nothing and thus celebrate any crumb we do somehow get, but as the established canon pairing it would bug me to no end to get little more than shallow scraps... Hell, it bugs me now and I'm not even particularly invested in chaggie, and I actually know a couple of Charlastor shippers I've talked to who wholly agree with me on this too - honestly, sometimes when we talk about this topic it almost feels like we care more about it than even chaggie shippers do lmao.
I do however acknowledge that there's definitely a big bias to consider from my end here, since chaggie just isn't the kind of ship that appeals to me with its smooth and unproblematic kind of domestic fluff to begin with, so it's easier for me to think about them as critically as I do.
Ultimately, if you enjoy chaggie as they are I'm genuinely happy for you and think nobody has the right to tell you what to like or dislike and I'd happily defend you if I see someone giving you shit over it!!!
I'm not trying to change anyone's minds here with my responses either, I'm just voicing my own thoughts on the matter since it was brought up to me on my own blog after all.
I also really appreciate having it pointed out to me when I phrased myself poorly, when my opinion is formed on an unfair assessment or I got something factually wrong (etc.) - so thank you for writing this ask and giving me the chance to rectify that! <3
I genuinely appreciate it :3

I saw a video on instagram (here is a link, the comments are assuring at least) that really fucking pissed me off of a lady saying like “oh if we don’t want a show to end we can use AI to keep generating new episodes” and it’s just,,, I fucking HATE this fucking idea so much? rather than learn to let get and accept endings we should just fully automate the creation of media so that we can continue to consume this mindless drivel? you care more about consuming content than actually absorbing a satisfying, well-plotted story that, by its very nature, should have a conclusion??
even if we’re looking at like, being upset a show was cancelled early, there are SO many talented, passionate writers on fanfic sites working their hardest to provide you FREE content to explore what could come next, created from a place of love for the original media rather than,, by logically and soullessly predicting what would have come next based on what came before.
why do we hate actual art so much!! why do we feel the need to CONSUME, CONSUME, CONSUME, to the point that we would rather ask a robot to provide some mediocre facsimile of what a real human was originally getting at? why are we so self-centred that we would employ AI to give us precisely what we want down to the smallest detail rather than explore what people have poured their hearts into hoping you’ll enjoy?
and more to the point, a large amount of media IS someone trying to create something that is precisely what they wanted to see in the world! why should we let that need push us to turn to AI instead of motivating us to find the value in our own talents and experience the joy of creating for ourselves???
it’s just so SAD art is meant to be so fucking real and raw and creative and one of those core human experiences why are there people (and I’m sorry I’m saying “we” cause I sure as hell hope it’s not all of us) who are so HELLBENT on automating something so vital and full of joy for mindless viewing? why are people advocating for the use of fucking AI facsimiles so you can cast your favourite actors in these precise roles???? I get wanting to see a certain actor play a certain part but I want that so I can see their genuine take and approach! not so I can see some fucking uncanny valley creep with their voice take the most direct and uninspired path through the character. I may like an actor but do I want everything I watch to just have them there, bland and so easily replaced with any other actor the moment I decide I’m interested in something new?
it incites so much fucking anger in me do the people making AI not care if anything is even a little bit authentic? real and raw and crafted because of a true belief in the material? a raw devotion to the art? do you care about NOTHING I’m going to scream!
