𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐔𝐏 𝐎𝐅𝐅
• summary; you came back home tired and extremely late with your makeup still on, how will your partner react?
• genre; fluff, comfort
• characters; alhaitham, kaveh x reader
∘₊✧───────────────────✧₊∘
✧ The candle almost burning out as ALHAITHAM couldn't resist but let his mind wander about your whereabouts, he raised an eyebrow when he catches a glimpse of you standing right at the doorframe leading to his office, his palm propped up his chin, pretending that he's had his head buried in his books, putting on an act like he did not expect you to be here, especially when soaked from head to toe
Based on his calculations, you must’ve left the house in a rush as you overslept and forgot to bring an umbrella to work, thus increasing your possibility on getting a cold the next day, it’s not a big deal though, alhaitham trusts himself to take care of you well
“You’re making the floor wet” he stood up and made his way to you, catching you off guard when he swept your feet of the ground, easily lifting you as if it’s a simple gesture
He sets you down on the closed toilet seat, filling up the bathtub, he reached his hand in the water to check the temperature, making sure that it’s just right
Subsequently, he returned to your side, kneeling down “Alright how do I do this” one of his hand holding a makeup wipe and the other grabbing a cleanser
It’s funny watching him follow your instructions precisely, the beads of sweat rolling down his drop dead gorgeous face, you’re so sure that’s god’s most finest living piece of art on his knees in front of you, ugh what an honour
After successfully removing your makeup, the calming scent of fresh tropical lemongrass essential oil fills your scents, helping you clear your mind along plus easing your tense muscles after a long day
Al-Haitham being the caring lover he is, never leaves your side, he helps you dry your hair after showering, shhhh no need to tire yourself out anymore habibi let me take care of you <3
✧ KAVEH doesn’t have time for this, its already 11pm. Why are you not back? He intended to complete his projects that are occupying wayy too much space on his desk but instead ended up anxiously pacing back and forth around the living room, nibbling on his thumb as it was his habit when nervous, eyes occasionally darting to the entrance of your shared house, hoping to see you miraculously appear through the door
You promised to spend time with him and have a skincare night which is a weekly ritual you two had planned because he said quote “oh my god we should totally treat ourselves cause we totally deserve it”
And well, after a few moments which felt like an eternity for him he heard your grumble outside the door
You were fumbling with your keys, frustrated and angry, blaming your anger towards the poor keys
“Honey you’re back!” he exclaimed while running to you with open arms with a large smile plastered on his face, you paused infront of him. He doesn’t fail to notice your furrowed brows and reddened cheeks, upon realising what’s the situation his mouth immediately turned into a thin line
It wasn’t your fault that you were tired after a day of work as you turned away and walked past him, dismissing his enthusiasm
In response he pouted at your dismissal, if you were to turn around right there right now, you’d see a sulking golden retriever. Of course kaveh being himself, he pestered you for a bit asking about your day
With your head on his lap, both of you already had your clay masks on, you couldn’t help but pour your heart out into ranting to your caring partner. As you went on a verbal onslaught, his fingertips threading through your hair whilst occasionally humming, showing that he’s actually paying attention to you
It was times like these where you felt thankful to have a loving partner like kaveh, well he might not be perfect but he’ll give in his best efforts for your comfort
Tumblr media
thanks for reading <33

Biomáquina AU
(do not ship my character)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Edit: sorry, I forgot to add the colorless ver. too)
Probably going to redesign, I didn't have a clear idea of how I wanted them to look like when I made this.
So basically, I had an idea one day for an artwork about Sun in a big dark room like lab with computers, science stuff... and plushies, toys, crayons, childlike drawings everywhere and in the middle of the room Sun was sitting there with cables conected to his head and going so high to the ceiling they desapeared in the dark.
Vague recreation of the idea (I used it as a warm up because artblock)
Tumblr media
And I was like, man what a cool idea.
...
what if it had lore?
And I made the story in two days and forgot about it.
I made THE STORY in two days, the concept art took me several and when it was finished I went 'OH FUCK I FORGOT ABOUT MOON' so I added him to the concept art... and to the story, which didn't change much but helped.
So the story lore whatever frankly idk:
Retrofuturistic world where Fazbear Entertainment is making experiments in animatronics with a sustance that makes inorganic components organic. Basically making the animatronics far more alive than they could ever have been (literally alive, like in a messed up way). Biological machines, for example: in the concept of Sun/Moon those teeth and eyes are pretty much real...
This would be called Biotecnologic, which is illegal to practice without a licence and state permision, and only for human benefit (prostetics for disable people for exsample). Fazbear Entertainment had to drop the project right the moment biotecnologi went illegal or they were going to jail. Which means now there are abandonet facilitys with a ton of disconected rotten animatronics... Except for one that turned back on for some reason...
Some time later, this idiot named Fern (selfinsert because idk how to do y/n so I toke my selfinsert and made a few changes, same name) who illegaly exited the city to illegaly dumspter dive in trash the goverment trows out of the city and into the nature outside (which prevents the world from healing right because they are dumb), went a little fared than they usually go and ended up finding the abandonet facilitys of Fazbear Entertainment. This idiot said 'haha cool :D' and went right inside. And that's how they met Sun (and Moon) who has amnesia and doesn't know why the place is empty or why this new person who knows nothing about is stealing lab equipament while intensely staring at him.
They got to be friends and started investigating the place trying to find out what happened in there before the project got canceled.
And a lot more but my brain is a little fried right now and it took me some effort to write this.
Feel free to ask me about this AU (I'll do my best to give a comprehensible answer).

im obsessed with suguru being protective over reader, especially when reader is a "you only live once" person. what would happen if reader's going to a project x typa party with gojo/shoko and them, begs suguru to go ("there will be weed" "fine ill go"), and reader ends up in a fight? what would sugu do?
I understand if you dont wanna write this lol, its just a scenario im curious about. thank you !!

another note: rushing to write this before my psych class 😵‍💫
Tumblr media
“no, no, absolutely not,” geto calls your name. “the last time you went to a party, you came back here drunk as hell. and guess what? i had to take care of you…not that that’s the issue. the issue is, there’s a bunch of people there that don’t care about your safety.”
you just groan loudly. geto was always like this. always analyzing the little things and the possible consequences and final outcome of the decision.
“geto, please?” you tried to plead with him. “it’ll be the last time i ask this month. i won’t ask for anything else.”
geto’s small pupils looked at you and hummed, “and who’s going? who’s gonna be there that compels you to ask me to go?”
“oh, gojo and shoko were going and i kinda already said yes…”
you notice your boyfriend’s face contort from a slightly worried expression to an shocked and irritated one. his eyebrows knitted together before he’d loudly sigh.
“you already said- i can’t believe im about to ask this…is there weed?” he queries. your excitement shot through the roof. your begging clearly got through to the ink haired male.
it was a party. a college party at that. what was an event like that without drinking and a bunch of people smoking. and probably a little fighting.
after you get confirmation from geto that you could go to the party and that he’d be attending alongside you, you quickly make your way to your room and put on something nice to wear, while geto stays in something as simple as a t-shirt and some jeans.
the wind blows gently as you two stand outside of the gate where the party was being held beyond it. you could see the flashing lights, loud music, and most importantly, the large crowds of students.
“we’re students,” you hear geto say to the security guard standing beside the gate. you both would show your ids before being let in with no trouble.
your eyes were wide with excitement as you got closer and closer to the party you’ve been dying to get to. you could feel the anticipation rising up in your chest, making you shiver a bit. geto, on the other hand, didn’t seem too thrilled. he just wanted to make sure you were safe. though, he could admit that having time outside of the house was good for him.
from a distance, you see two people heading in your direction. a male with snow white hair was trotting over to you, while a girl with short brown hair followed, simply walking.
gojo throws his arm around geto, “suguru!” he beamed at the male, “i didn’t expect you to be joining us. did she convince you?”
your boyfriend glances at you before reluctantly replying, “yes, she did. she also begged me to come…and i almost said no.”
“well i think-” shoko calls your name, “did a good job of getting you out of that apartment of yours. you don’t need to always be cramped up in that place like a hermit crab anyway.” you see gojo nodding quickly in agreement.
geto just rolls his eyes, “i’m still sober so i have time to turn around and leave if i want to.” he says. gojo waves his hand.
“oh, you don’t mean that.” he smiles, moving his circular framed glasses down to the bridge of his nose, revealing his sharp blue eyes. “let’s dance until we can’t anymore.”
with that, you see gojo dragging geto off towards the crowd of students. you and shoko exchange looks before giggling to each other and following the boys.
the party is so live you could barely stand it. each time someone tried to speak to you, you were screaming “what?” a few times because of how loud the music was.
you stuck beside each of your friends while you all enjoyed yourselves. sitting comfortably together while passing a blunt around and gojo taking shots of hennessy and laughing drunkenly as everyone else was dancing to the music.
“he’s always the first to clock out mentally,” shoko commented before taking a sip of her drink also. gojo whips his head around to her direction, his hair flying up a bit.
“i didn’t clock out.” gojo slurred, wiping the remaining liquid from his lips. “i don’t even have a job to do that.”
“he’s brain dead.” geto took a drag of his blunt.
“stop saying that. it’s mean,” gojo whined.
after a moment, taking sips and drags from the items in your hand, you whisper to geto, informing him that you were gonna go to the bathroom.
“do i need to go with you? you know, just in case?”
you almost said no because you knew how overprotective geto could be over you. he just never wanted to see you get hurt and he was definitely scared of something bad happening to you.
you finally say yes and make your way to the bathroom. when you enter, you immediately pinch your nose at the potent smell.
“it smells like shit in here.” you complain, finding a stall to go into, hoping they aren’t clogged with waste or a bunch of tissues.
you take care of your business and clean your hands. on the way out, a girl, obviously drunk bumped into you, mumbling a “watch out” as she stumbled into the stall. you were about to say something but you saw geto shaking his head.
“not worth it,” he said, grabbing your hand and leading you back to your friends. your furrowed eyebrows unknit themselves and a sigh escapes you.
when you get back to your friends, you could see gojo trying to grab another drink and shoko holding him tightly by the waist so he didn’t grab another cup.
“sit your ass down, damn it. you don’t need anything else.” the girl fussed. “don’t you think you’ve had enough for tonight?”
“six cups isn’t enough.” gojo screamed.
“you’re acting like an alcoholic. sit down.”
“you aren’t allowed to go to another party after this.” you laughed as you sat down in your chair. gojo paused and looked over in your direction.
“why notttt?” the male frowned.
“she’s right. you’re acting stupider than usual,” geto chimed in. “we should go home soon…we don’t need to stay here too long.”
“boringgggg,” gojo said loudly. “i don’t wanna go home.”
“you’re a pain in my ass. i should’ve stayed home.” suguru crossed her arms and slouched down into the chair before reaching to spark another blunt.
“you always say that,” gojo giggled. “hey, we should get food when we leave. the food here sucks and i hate the off brand soda. it’s so gross.”
“damn, do you ever stop complaining?” shoko hissed.

Unfortunately I'm still struggling with this funk I'm in. I keep having moments where I get excited about something, and then suddenly I'm just not feeling it anymore. (I suspect it's partly because of "that time of the month".) It's frustrating. >m<
But I was able to complete some special non-drawing artworks that I can share!
If, uh... anyone remembers me mentioning a sewing project I started however long ago that was, I finally got around to finishing that! ...And then immediately dove into another one. XD (I know I said I'd make a post about the process--I still hope to do that someday. Although now it's at least three posts worth of info lol.)
Soooooo... Here's the subject of that project!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the little critter that will be my plush Aneira! (Randy and Akoya's far-future daughter, for those who don't know or forgot.)
I tried to give her a slightly shorter left foot, to match her canon design, but the foot that ended up shorter was the right one. Sooo... I maaaay change that in-story as well. X3
But my follow-up project is something more special to me.
I wasn't satisfied when I set the two custom Mews up with the one I had bought specifically to be Randy.
So... I made him too. :3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And then I got a silly little idea.
Tumblr media
I let them hold hands~
Tumblr media
Every new plushie I make beats out the previous one as my favorite work of art, and Randy is no exception. I'm super proud of how he turned out, and happy to have him and let him cuddle with his beloved IRL! <3
Oh, and I also made a little necklace for Akoya with some beads I found at work.
Tumblr media
She's purtty now. :3

| soft!father figure!Miguel o'hara x teen!spidey?reader | Headcanons | (platonic)
(Miguel o'hara x reader platonic)
(Miguel o'hara x teen!reader platonic)
(Miguel o'hara x reader platonic)
A/n: reminder, miguel is gonna be OOC(out of character) as HELL because I legit forgot how to write, and I lost all my skills because of art block 2 years ago and stopped. So, just a heads up, Ooc!Miguel.
Trigger warning: cursing, mentions of loss of family members/and or friends, mentions of death, mentions of dead family members(?), potentially overprotective/slight platonic yandere!miguel(?), etc.
Miguel....looks at you, the same way he looks at his own pride and joy, which is also you, ofc. (Because you are the main character and are amazing.)
He'll try and brush your hair, no matter how short or how thin it is. if you have a buzz cut, he'll just lightly massage your head. If you have braids or an afro, etc, he'll try and learn hair styles like that for you, like how to do braids, or afro puffs for you (please correct me on terminology, I'm not black, so forgive me if I accidentally say something wrong or call a hair style the wrong name/gen)
He will help you with anything and everything. You are his new pride and joy, sit down, and don't worry about a thing. :)
He'll help you with missions, homework, hell, even on how to build nuclear weapons if you ask nicely enough.
You're his kid(metaphorically), why shouldn't he help you with everything and dote on you?
However if you are more independent or less likely to understand/and or like how much he tries to help you in everything, he'll back off, he trusts you, he just cares about you too much to let you do anything(as horrible as that sounds, it comes from a place of good)
He's like those overprotective dad's that tell you, your outfit is too revealing, or some horror story about some random kid getting kidnapped before you go out. (Is that just my parents? Maybe I'm projecting a little, sorry!)
He will judge your friends, especially if its other spiders, hobie? He won't say anything to you but he will lecture hobie for 2 hours on making sure not to be a bad influence on you, gwen is...alright, he may not really like her but he understands why your friends (whatever that reason may be.), miles? Oh fuck no. Miguel would rather set himself on fire and destroy the spider society instead of letting miles be friends with you, and (aromantics, don't read this part.) If you're dating miles, congrats, miguel is popping a blood vessel from how pissed he is.
Of course, he may lecture you, or even 'ground you'(he'll start to get very emotional after 2 hours of being away from you, he can not risk losing another kid, you are too important to him.), but a little bit of pestering/and or convincing, and he'll begrudgingly accept you and miles are friends/dating.
He may teach you Spanish, if you're up for it.
Calls you spanish nicknames. (Hispanics and people who speak spanish fluently, I am so sorry, I don't know spanish and I'm using Google Translate, please forgive me for this. Please correct me in the replies/comments so I can edit this and fix it./gen)
Princesa/Príncipe, Cariño, Mi sol, mi corazón, mi vida, etc.
He lets(makes) you stay with him on his platform office thingy(sorry, I don't know what to call it.), he'll pull up a YouTube video or movie on some hologram, or holographic screen and let you watch while he works.
Honestly, does not know now to use basic cooking appliances, if you're from a universe where the year is like, anything under 2060, congrats, miguel will not understand any terminology or technology you have(like a regular phone, ipad or a regular computer from 2020, his universe is so futuristic and such, those things are ANCIENT to him, God forbid you quote any vines infront him, he will not understand and there's like a 30% chance his grandparents/great grandparents used to quote vines.)
Will ask you to help him with a fucking microwave,, his universe is so futuristic.
Sometimes, he sends you with him on missions that aren't missions, like jsut going out to soem really nice universe he thinks you'll like, and being 'undercover'(you're both gonna wear whatever you want, hell probably wear casual, you can wear anything you're comfortable in.). To which you'll both jsut be hanging out at some cafe, library, amusement Park, cinema, whatever place you like or he thinks you'll like, and pretends that you're looking for some anomaly but in the end he'll jsut tell you to go back to HQ or your own universe and he'll take care of the anomaly(there was no anomaly, he lied so that he could hang out with you.)
If you lose or are going to lose any family members, friends, lover, etc, maybe from the Canon or something else, he'll do everything to cheer you up, highest quality therapy, stuffed animals(if you like those), the entire series of a book you like, he'll even pay for your favorite Netflix show to get a 2nd/'random number' season, he is a billionaire, he won't let you on any missions, he'll make you rest, help you mourn and even maybe help arrange the funeral if you trust him enough.
This man has severe abandonment issues(hc), he has lost his daughter and family, he cna not lose you too.
He is a bit clingy and overprotective, he doesn't, like, read your texts or anything, but he does silently judge your friends, aswell as sometimes glare at anyone.
He has a huge soft spot for you.
If he's in the middle of lecturing or arguing with someone, maybe because of a mission, and you walk in or he notices you walking by, he will stop and say good morning/good afternoon/whatever time it is.
Warning, 'cringe' below, because I do not know how to use spanish nicknames properly, please forgive me :(
"(Random spiderman) this mission was important! You made mistake that could've costed someone their life!- good morning, Cariño."
^ this is what I mean by that.
Sometimes, he makes lyla monitor you on missions 10 times more then any other spider because he gets worried about you.
He will help you with your spidey suit, and making a suit if it rips or you don't have one yet.
This man will watch soccer, and get pissed off at how badly they're playing, like, you could jsut be in another room or sitting next to him doing your own thing and all of a sudden you'll hear a roar of spanish curses and such, because someone made a stupid move while playing.
He'll make you pack lunches, burritos, Quesadillas, Empanadas, Enchiladas, etc, (now I'm hungry thinking about it😭). If you don't like any of those or are allergic to certain ingredients used in those, he'll make you something else, a sandwich, burger, maybe French fries, sliced fruit, strawberrys dipped in chocolate (if your not allergic), pasta, lasagna, etc. Or he'll just buy you some takeout and put it in a lunch box for you. Whatever you prefer :)
Supports you no matter what, no matter your identity, religion, sexuality, race, etc, he supports you :).

# to tell you the truth
12 — meeting, number three?
smau masterlist ∗ previous chapter ∗ next chapter
“chigiri, you’re late.” 
you tap your foot impatiently as the person in question (who also happens to be project leader) quickly runs up to you. 
he splutters out a quick apology as he catches his breath. “i’m really sorry! my class was held back longer than i expected.” 
sighing, you uncross your arms and go over to help hold the project stuff he was carrying. 
chigiri looks at you with pleading eyes. “please don’t be mad.”
“it’s fine, just tell me–” you quickly glance over to the person standing beside you. “i mean us, ahead of time if you’re going to run late.”
he grins and does a quick bow. “yeah, sorry!”
“let’s go.”  you nod back, before turning and walking in the direction of the campus library, leaving the other two behind. 
chigiri gives a look to rin, as if to question him “what happened?”, but much to his disappointment, rin returns the same look back.
“so?” the redhead starts.
“nothing happened.” rin rolls his eyes. “she came here, glared at me, and then we just waited for you.”
“you waited in silence for 15 minutes??”
“yes.” rin replies, but he doesn’t make eye contact. chigiri notices this but lets it off when he notices you leaving the building. 
“suspicious.” he raises a brow. “but let’s go before we get left behind!” 
rin picks up one of the bags that chigiri had brought and motions for him to go first. 
“how chivalrous of you.” 
“shut up.”
Tumblr media
though the tension was high at first, it became less awkward faster than anyone had originally expected it to be. as top students, work ethic had a bigger influence than past grudges, and you weren’t going to let all your previous hard work go to waste. before you knew it, you actually forgot you were working with the itoshi rin, the one guy who can ruin your mood in a split second. 
but you can’t lie, seeing rin’s talent for art made you feel envious; he really was good at everything (though you would never admit that).
“you know, i think we actually make a pretty good team.”
you blink. “what?” 
“i mean, look at how productive we’ve been!” lightheartedly, chigiri laughs, without any fear of the potential hole he’s about to dig himself into by starting this conversation. “it looks like we might actually finish this today.”
seeing as how relaxed the he was, you reluctantly put a smile on and decide to humour him. “yeah, we should totally do this again.” 
“what-“ rin almost chokes on his water in response to your (meaningless) joke, which surprises you as you expected only a scoff from the boy. however, it seems like hes the dense one here, because he for one can not tell when the slightest tone of sarcasm is being used.
on the other hand, someone does take advantage of your sarcasm. “oh? i’ll take you up on that!”
you glare at the red haired boy, but to no avail are you able to get him to evoke his proposal. “i thought you said we might be able to finish this today…?”  
chigiri raises his brows and smiles. “we still have to decorate!”
he’s really pushing it.
a sigh barely escapes your lips before he follows up in attempt to ease your growing irritation. you couldn’t help it, after all, chigiri’s making an obvious attempt to get you to spend more time with rin. 
“well i mean, it’s early anyways. i think we can get this over with today.” though just barely noticeable, you notice him starting to sulk, and you just slightly begin to feel bad for him.
“whatever.” you close your eyes. “can’t say i’m opposed.” 
chigiri’s face starts to light up, and he jumps out of his seat, a bit too eagerly. “really!?”
he’s excited, you’re not too sure why, but that all ends as you tell him, sternly, “except since you said so, we aren’t leaving until we do finish.”
dejected, he slowly falls back into his seat. “everything?”
“everything.”
a light chuckle comes out of the boy sitting across chigiri. you nearly miss it, but it’s too memorable for you to not notice; as if your ears are accustomed to this sound from hearing it more often than you’d like to remember.
your eyes shoot towards the direction of the laugh, and rin freezes from all the sudden attention. he realizes quickly that your gaze is pressing for an answer, but in all honesty, he himself doesn’t even know how to respond. 
“what?” he splutters. “there was something in my throat.”
you squint your eyes at him, unconvinced. “just so you know, ‘desperate for grades’ me and ‘regular’ me are not the same.” 
“am i supposed to feel threatened by that?” he questions, amusement growing in his tone.
“yes.” you reply immediately. “in case, you know, you think i actually tolerate you now or something.” 
“i’m not delusional.”
you raise a brow. “you sure about that?”
there’s a pause before another word is spoken. you notice the slight shift in his demeanour as you watch rin process your words, hastily open his mouth after. but instead of uttering a rude remark, he closes his mouth and looks away, clenching his fist. 
confused, you look towards chigiri, but he’s as clueless as you are.
the productive atmosphere soils, and the awkward tension that inevitably trails you and rin around returns once more. 
it’s only the sounds of typing, writing, and your wondering thoughts that fill the study room.
why was he getting offended after a joke that he started himself? was it something you said? was it how you looked at him? did he get self conscious because it’s true? or offended because you were extremely off? you wouldn’t know. 
you don’t understand rin at all, and after hearing such from not just rin, but reo as well, you’re well aware that that’s a fact. 
“so,” chigiri speaks up after what feels like a millennia. “how much research do we have left? can we start decorating the display?” 
“i’m practically done, did you bring the stuff?” 
he nods, walking over to take all the arts supplies out of the giant bag he brought. 
“rin, how about you, are you ready?” chigiri asks, but all he gets back in response is an irritated glare. 
a frown adorns your face as you pity chigiri for having to deal with rin’s childish attitude due to your rivalry with the latter. it made you feel responsible for brightening up the atmosphere, even if it wasn’t your problem at all that rin couldn’t handle a joke. “it’s fine, we can start without him.”
but the response you had believed to be the most harmless one (which was avoiding the problem), turned out to be the worst one yet. 
rin slams the papers he was holding down onto the table beside his laptop. he lets out a deep sigh and turns to look at the two of you. “no. i’m not.”
“‘kay,” chigiri starts, before slowly sitting down and flashing you a quick glance of alarm. “i’ll look over everything again, just let us know when you’re done.”
this won’t do. 
you absolutely hated the fact that rin was being a selfish prick right now, but despite your opposition, it would be too much for chigiri to handle this guy alone. which is how you came to the conclusion that it was time to bring out the fabricated extroverted version of yourself deliberately prepared to deal with awkward situations with strangers. you just had to mentally prepare to delude yourself by erasing every single interaction you had shared with rin, and all the feelings of resentment you held towards him. easy… right?
it was going to be a long, long, day.

Warmups #1 (Plus Charlastor!)
Turns out warmups really DO help in art (fuck me, right?) and these are all from yesterday and today, hope you enjoy it!
SCROLL TO END FOR TIMELAPSE <3
Tumblr media
Pretty much just Hazbin and some OCs of mine! (That's basically all I've been drawing the last month or two lol) I've also been reading way too much (not really, fight me) Charlastor/RadioBelle fics and consuming ALL the artwork. I might just be obsessed with Al in general though - *sigh* - before my Charlastor fixation it was RadioStatic/Silence. Anything with the Strawberry Pimp or Vox tbh. Fuck I'm just rambling about Hazbin, huh? uhhhh where was I? RIGHT here's the one and only reference I actively used besides glancing at some official Hazbin art:
Tumblr media
I saw it, and then immediately fell into a fit of laughter at the idea of drawing Charlie and Al like this. The whole drawing process made my cheeks hurt bc I was giggling over getting to make those two idiots be, well, adorable fucking idiots! XD
Anyways, here's the speedpaint!
Anatomy is so harrrrrd but I'm actually really proud of myself for how I did with this one, I'm still terrified of drawing the lower body but heyyyy, problem for another day!
OH I almost forgot to talk about my own characters a little?! Hyperfixation, what have you done to me?!!! We've got four of my babies here, all from the same project called Ashland Bites, which will hopefully, someday, be an animated series! I've been writing it for years and years (slow but steady, I'm a team of exactly one person lmao) and I've been trying to get my art skills honed so I can do as much of the (probably very distant, but hopefully someday) future pre-production work myself! I started learning more about animating recently, and the openness that Vivienne Medrano allows her cast and crew to have has been a godsend for learning more about the different steps of the process (all while feeding my ravenous little neurodivergent brain with that good good fixation content lmao)
Can't share too much about my own project at the mo, but let me just say it's got Vampires, the fair folk, godesses, ancient fantasy cultures, modern humans running around thinkin' the world is our definition of 'normal', and SO much more (I wish I could tell u all the things oh my GODDD)
Thanks for taking a look at my work *smooches ya*

introducing..
東方無政府夢 ~ ANARCHY FANTASY
(stylized in all caps)
A derivative Touhou Project revision in the works
Tumblr media
This project has lots of name candidates so im calling it "Anarchy" for short. I also call it "Y2K Touhou" sometimes lol
Anarchy is my most ambitious project of mine, about my vision of Touhou. or revision, or an alternate universe. or something
My vision of it is like, if Touhou was more modern. Like the shinto themes will still be intact, just alot of things will look and maybe even feel modern.
Itll be a revision of the story, its characters, basically almost everything.
Anarchy is inspired by alot of stuff, mostly Y2K themes and aesthetic(s). Some inspirations include Sonic.EXE and creepypastas (you heard that right.) and 2000s-early 2010s media, with a sprinkle of recent (mid 2010s-2020s) media.
This is also i guess my practice for writing and character designing? I forgot the word. I say it is my most ambitious project because one of the reasons is that im not a native english speaker, so this will be interesting too :P
x Anarchy will also include a new story, acting like, the "final boss" of my writing journey (that is this project). Youll see why when i reveal it. Theres some hints on my social media about said new story too (even this paragraph has a clue too!!!!!!!) and it will also include some new content too!!!!!!x
So yeah, alot of stuff for this project has been planned, and i only have a few amount of progress done. I aim to finish (or atleast have a good amount of progress) this project by atleast the end of 2024 or before I graduate school.
iii think thats all i have 2 say for now......K Bai
oh yeah one more thing. All touhou related art with my Anarchy redesigns from this point on will include the #anarchy fantasy tag for better organizing or sumn lol

OH WAIT MY DUMBASS FORGOT TO ALSO ASK BTW IF YOU HAVE ANY HEADCANONS ON CAMERON OR GWEN
Imma just gonna start with Cam first, and let me just tell you Cameron I projected the most on because even after my "ihatehim no ilovehim" phase so idk maybe some of this could be out of character srry.
I imagine Cameron is south African, particularly Zimbabwean.
His a walking nerd emoji.
The only pass time Cam had was to draw bugs. So he's REALLY GOOD at drawing bugs. Only bugs. Everything else looks like it's from the diary of a wimpy kid.
Cam not that keen of physical touch but slowly getting used to it cuz of Mike. Mike also trying to remember that everyone is open on surprise hugs.
Idk why but with Zoey and Cam's relationship I just think of Carly and Freddie but without the crush.
Gwen and Cam would have art trades together.
Cam got the dryess hands in existence because of the amount of hand sanitizer he uses. OCD GAND RISE UP!
Im saying this now but Cam and B would TOTALLY VIBE TOGETHER!! i just don't know their intentions are yet so dont ask..
Lightning and Cam would have hangout if not for the cheating thing.
Duncan once asked Cam if he can draw a mural of his pet spider Scruffy.
Sam would take it as his personal duty to teach Cam in the way of being a gamer. By teaching him the Zelda timeline and the lore of FNAF. May god rest Cam soul after that.
Cam doesn't not do well with the more active people in Mike's system like Svetlana and Manitoba. They try to be gentle with him but they just don't know their strengths and Manitoba canonically eats dirt so there's only so much they can hangout.
Vito doesn't vibe with nerds but he does occasional try to back him up if he's getting bullied. ONLY if Vito himself isn't bullying Cam.
Cameron actually has the best relationship with Chester. He loves hearing history and old facts and Chester loves the excuse to chat someone's ears off.
Mal and Cam have more of a neutral relationship with each other but I can definitely see Mal thinking his just some weakling nerd until Cam shows him he knows how to make the Demon core.
Cam and Mike started a hate Scott club. Although Cam feels alil bad about, he tends to be reminded of why they started this club every time they go back to their cabin.
Cam once witnessed Scott use the bathroom without washing his hands. And never liked him since.
There was one time between season, Mike, Cam and Zoey were going on a little road trip. Z & M both ask what song should they play next? Cam said he doesn't know any songs so maybe just play the Ice cream truck theme. And that's when they find out HOW sheltered this boy is.
I would get into the nitty gritty but Cam's mom is NOT a good mom. Zoey and Mike have beef with her (Zoey trys to have the benefit of the doubt and said she just too over protective while Mike legit DONT like her.)
They both make sure that Cam gets as much outside time as possible and learn to have a life outside of his house.
When Cam goes to college is going aboard as an entomologist.
When Cameron first came on TD he didn't know what to wear because obviously he's never been outside so it a mixture of hot and cold clothes. Bro don't know fashion but it's his outfit changes in All Stars.
He's wearing a puffer jacket because it reminds him of a sleeping bag and makes him cozy + it has a cooling system inside thanks to B.

Coming this rotation, a new High School!
Tumblr media
In my mod frustration I took a break from gameplay and rebuilt my old very square high school. I changed the time of day for taking photos and cheated the weather to sunny about 5 times but it kept raining so we're just going to roll with it. I mean at least it shows off the covered walkways?
As you walk on to the grounds the building on the right is the first stop. It is the reception area of the school and features the first aid room and principals office. We may or may not see the principals office depending on how evil a certain sim will be once they age up to a teen.
Tumblr media
If you exited the office and went past the picnic tables to a side walkway you would find the basketball court (yes this is 100% here because @matchalovertrait character Dulce played basketball which made me remember most high schools have a court). The end of the walkway has a group cheer mat which Onyx may or may not use, obviously not in this weather, they like their hair too much. Opposite this is a proper sized pool inspired by the wonderful high school build done by @stargazer-sims (seriously wanting a pool even close to yours was a main drive of redoing the place).
Tumblr media
What? We can walk from the pool to the main building without getting rained on? How convenient in this deluge! As we turn to look back at the pool notice how the watcher solved the empty space problem by chucking down a whole skating rink. Back into the main building and we're greeted by a pride flag because this is an inclusive school even if the principal is an arse gosh darn it!
Tumblr media
I thought I couldn't get a more colourful cafeteria then I went and built it! Please notice the pride flag wall (please let me know if I forgot any key ones and I'll add them), colourful menus and a security camera to keep track of who really starts those food fights.
Tumblr media
Double doors lead to an outside eating area, once again covered and- who put a waterslide back there? Seriously questionable building taste (it's me, I have questionable building taste). There's also a couple of swing sets because you're never too old for swings.
Tumblr media
The other set of internal double doors lead to the library which is kindly being modeled by the default principal. Space for group study and comfy reading. I liked the idea of taller tables and normal height tables coexisting in the space. Room to work on projects together or study alone.
Tumblr media
What's that you say? I've never looked into voidcritter lore despite owning kids room stuff? Me neither my friend. Didn't stop me from decorating the locker section with them though. If we continue clockwise- oh look, a full length mirror! How convenient for image obsessed teens without them clogging the bathrooms. You can also see the space on the opposite side of the cafeteria where there is a mural outline in case sims want to fill it in (I'm looking at you art lover Carson who still managed to get a low boost to his exam despite not having art knowledge). Anyway back to clockwise, this is my math class. Math diagrams because math.
Tumblr media
And then we come out of the side hallway where the entrance to math was and face back towards the front entrance. Let me just take a minute to highlight that all bathrooms here are unisex individual spaces. Gender is a social construct and honestly making a group of young people who are already self conscious get changed in the same space is... not a great plan. The bathrooms in the pool also look like this. Down our second side corridor and I wonder what could be here. Oh look at that art, it kind of looks like something @eljeebee reblogged yesterday... silver and yellow... (I swear I forgot about seeing it until after I finished the build and I rechecked tumblr and saw it again. It's not my fault Lana is being an influencer)
Tumblr media
Through the door you will find the graphics studio/art class. Hopefully it can inspire the students a bit. Alas not much room for easels but in graphics in high school all we needed was blank paper and a good desk.
Tumblr media
Then we have business class right by the front entrance. Why is it so feminine I hear you say? Because business is for women to! Eliza is proving that. And I fell in love with the colour scheme and ran with it... And I wanted to try different style individual desks in different classes. Have you noticed this is the third room with different style desk? Probably not as this is the first time I'm mentioning it.
Tumblr media
To the other side of the entrance we have two more classes (these are bordering the cafeteria). First up, computer science! Not a single computer in sight! Because when I tried to put computers at desks the students just sat in a huddle by the door and all got yelled at by the principal didn't they (I am sorry about that detention Onyx and Carson, my bad). Next we have social studies, one of my school favourites! Broke out the dino wallpaper and some maps to go with historic pieces. Fun fact, I'm useless at geography, couldn't find anywhere on a map really.
Tumblr media
Now upstairs may seem a bit of a jumble... But that's just because it is. The main landing connects with a small workout area. Here we have a punching bad, some yoga mats, and the traditional exercise machine and treadmill for those before class tasks. Of course we have a sneaky bit of unicorn art as tribute to the queen of unicorns @azuhrasims herself.
Tumblr media
In one of the upstairs corners we have our Language Studies room. And look, there's the big blank spot on the wall I couldn't decide decor for, oops. I have a film poster in here because my English teacher had film posters up and I loved them! Then we have a chill hang out space with a variety of comfy seats to choose from. These wall murals really set the vibe I wanted. A place to relax indoors that wasn't the cafeteria.
Tumblr media
Next corner we have the science class where I definitely did not go overboard with green, nope not me. I wanted to chuck some chem labs in here but I also wanted each class to be able to sit 10. When I play the Pancakes next both teens will need to be in the same class so I'm going to run that week with a larger mixed class, they'll each have 4 friends of their own age in their class for company. Then we have what I assume was the builder's attempt at a Foreign Language classroom? Between quilted floor tiles and gingham walls I'd guess they were out of ideas by the time they got to this room (yeah I kind of was, plus I just don't know what to put in a foreign language class when all simlish is foreign to me)
Tumblr media
And finally we have Olive Grim! Wife of the reaper who is kindly testing my build out for me in the photography save. I should have had her test a shower in the bathrooms but hindsight is 20/20 or whatever the saying is. She's chilling in the most bland boring room I could make for my sims to have to sit exams in. No inspiration and no cheating off classroom posters!
Tumblr media
Thank you for coming on my tour. Once again I am sorry about the rain! I even skipped forward a whole other day and it was still there... at least we're putting the covered walkways to use I guess?

it makes sense. You've reached your satisfaction and found an interesting endpoint so your Player is able to walk away. The need is there and he was so smug knowing that there's a good chance that someone drawn in with the hook, eagerly seeking a story, would want that.
Forgot to mention: the bonuses again were pretty cool. Unfortunately I wasn't able to read the Princess because my eyes are bad with cursive, but the images alone were hilarious. The other comics were hilarious and the concept art sketches were very cool to look through.
As for OFF, I really recommend going at it again. The fangames are pretty cool too although I can't remember which ones are finished by now and if any new projects have come up or faltered. Aside from Home which is basically "OFF but Judge's PoV" but with its own spin on things.
(3 am Anon at nearly 9 pm. Hello!)
Putting this in another bit just in case because... I get doofy sometimes about things. There is a game thematically/visually similar to OFF while being its own thing if you're interested: Almari. Last I saw it was still being worked on. You're playing as a new entity that is born without emotion so you travel through lands to obtain those ideals. Visuals and enemies are kinda freaky so heads up there. And there's something... sort of similar to Undertale/Earthbound in the sense that it is an fun urban-fantasy RPG with a goofy hometown... and... uh... the MC gets deleted by a glitch before leaving First Town so your controls get hooked to the loser best friend and you can choose to speak with him. Last I saw Glitched was nowhere near done but I know the demo's still up. It's very much Funny SNES Action-Adventure or RPG Game with a cosmic horror twist for the cast.
At the very least, it's the ending I always had in mind from the start!
Oh and thank you for checking out the bonus stuff in the PDF, too! And yeah, I can see the cursive being hard to read...it was just supposed to imitate the sort of thing that Noelle would write in a journal or something, complete with her illustrations!
And haha, I'd have to try it for the first time, since I haven't yet. :P I am spoiled on the ending(s), though. I do think it's pretty neat how many different sorts of thoughtful games there are that spawned from Earthbound and its unique approach to an RPG!

Steve comes back to his and Robin’s apartment to the smell of… burning hair? He only knows this from the time when Robin would straighten her hair on a daily basis trying to impress Nancy (and she did).
But she’s stopped ever since they started dating (after Nancy said she liked her no matter what state her hair was in). So as Steve rounds the corner to the bathroom, he isn’t sure what he’s expecting, but it certainly isn’t long, black hair straightened immaculately.
Steve’s heart thuds a bit at the stranger in his home clad in a tight black dress facing away from him, but then Robin’s head peaks around the person and calls out, “Hey, Steve. Didn’t realize you’d be home so early.” She waves at him with what looks to be eyeliner in her hand. The stranger noticeably tenses up.
Steve swallows heavily, gaze desperately trying not to fall down to check out the girl’s ass while Robin is looking. “Dustin wanted some alone time with Susie so…” he trails off.
“Quit flinching,” Robin says to the woman, and really who is she?
“So, Robin,” Steve says awkwardly, “Who’s this?”
Robin peaks around the tall girl - and really she’s very tall, probably Steve’s height - with her eyebrows furrowed and nose scrunched up as if Steve is being an idiot. Steve shoots her a look of how am I supposed to know? And Robin has the nerve to roll her eyes.
“Turn around,” Robin says to the girl as if that will explain things.
She hesitates and slowly rotates around.
Steve’s jaw drops - he can’t help it. She’s absolutely gorgeous with dark brown eyes, long lashes, pale skin, and full lips. Robin did such a wonderful job accentuating her features with the heavy makeup she’s applied.
Steve has the nagging thought that she looks so… familiar.
There’s a rustling noise that Steve assumes is Robin digging through her makeup bag, but he’s too busy eyeing this girl up. “Shit, I forgot my blush. I’ll be right back.” Robin shoots past them.
Steve can’t help but send all his gratitude to Robin for leaving him alone with one of her girl friends for once. Time to lay on the Harrington charm.
“I must say, I’m not sure why she’s grabbing blush when you already have such lovely red cheeks,” Steve flirts. Not his best line, but it has the effect of deepening the flush.
The girl opens and closes her mouth a few times, seemingly speechless. Steve take a bold step forward, cornering the stranger against the bathroom sink. “Now, how come I’ve never seen you around here before? I’d certainly recognize such a beautiful face.”
For some reason, this has the girl giving him the most absurd look, similar to Robin’s as if he’s an idiot missing something obvious. Steve’s eyes flicker down to her red lips. “How mad would Robin be if I messed up your lipstick?” Steve questions. He knows it’s super forward, but he just feels such a strong pull to this stranger.
He continues flicking his eyes between her lips and eyes, experiencing an almost strange sense of deja vu. “Steve…” she says in a deep voice that sounds strangely like Eddie’s.
Eddie.
Steve’s eyes widen while flickering all over her his features. He takes in the Adam’s apple for the first time as Eddie swallows deeply. And holy shit. Oh no.
“Hey, Eddie, I found my blush! It was…” Robin trails off looking between the two. “What the hell happened here?”
Steve and Eddie make eye contact and Eddie beats him to a response. “Dear Steve was just fixing my lipstick. Isn’t that right?”
Steve huffs and nods his head maybe a little too intensely.
Robin eyes them suspiciously before saying, “I doubt unsymmetrical lipstick will mess up my art project too badly, but I appreciate it.”
Oh. The art project Robin has been talking about for weeks exploring the masculine and feminine sides of different people. And boy, Steve sure did try to explore Eddie’s feminine side.
He leaves the pair alone, trying not to have a full on crisis about Eddie being a hot girl.
-:-:-:-:-:-
Unfortunately, those thoughts about Eddie don’t stop. Once Eddie had removed the makeup, Steve tried to rationalize that with his hair straight Eddie still looked… girly.
But then Eddie’s over the next day and Steve cannot stop staring at his lips… and his ass, which had looked so great in a dress - and even currently in jeans.
The day after that, Steve can barely form a coherent sentence when speaking to Eddie because he’s getting so lost in his eyes. Apparently they’re just as beautiful without the mascara and eyeliner.
Robin finally notices something is up when Steve dumbly reaches out and tugs at one of Eddie’s curls and states, “I liked the straight hair, but I think you look even better with the curls.”
When Eddie flushes and races to the bathroom, Robin asks, “What the hell was that?”
“What was what?”
Robin narrows her eyes at Steve. “That was a classic Harrington line. I didn’t suffer through your scoops ahoy failures and pick up nothing.”
Steve shrugs and glances down the hall where the bathroom is. As the toilet flushes Steve whispers, “Eddie was just really beautiful in drag, you know?”
Robin gapes at him and asks, “How so?”
Steve elaborates, “I mean. He has the prettiest doe eyes. And his lips are just pretty. Plus, I thought it was really cool how he was the same height as me so it was easy to maintain eye contact and probably kiss him. And he just… has such a wonderful smile and laugh. With the cutest sense of humor. Just overall, really a beautiful girl.”
Robin stares at him for a few moments. “Steve. Those are literally all his qualities outside of drag.”
Eddie chooses this moment to leave the bathroom and make his way down the hall in the middle of Steve’s crisis. He looks between the two and asks, “What did I miss?”
“Congratulations, Eddie. I think you sent Steve into a sexuality crisis,” Robin announces and her eyes immediately widen. “That’s a joke,” she clarifies but not convincingly enough for even a child to believe.
Steve groans and puts his head in his hands. This cannot be happening. He hears some type of hushed conversation occur between Robin and Eddie and then light footsteps down the hall. Steve looks up to find only Eddie in the room.
“Eddie…” Steve starts to say unsure of what he really wants to say.
“What if….” Eddie stop abruptly, “No, it’s stupid.”
“Tell me.”
Eddie looks at Steve and makes his way over to sit directly next to him on the couch. “I know you wanted to ‘mess up my lipstick’ when you assumed I was a girl-”
“Oh god. Please don’t remind me.”
“But,” Eddie continues, “Do you want to still mess up my theoretical lipstick right now when I don’t look like a girl?”
Steve stares at Eddie, noticing how close he is to him. His eyes flicker down to his lips and back to his eyes. “Yes,” Steve discovers.
Eddie nods and continues nodding, seemingly unsure what else to do.
Steve shakes his head. “But that doesn’t make sense because I still like girls. At least, I think I do. I mean, that’s why I liked you. Or, I think it is?”
Eddie stares at him for a moment, searching his face as if the answers are right there in front of him. “Steve, you know you can like both, right?”
Steve stares at Eddie because no he didn’t not know that. And oh shit. That makes so much damn sense.
His mind flashes back to all the times he had looked at other boys and found them attractive, rationalizing that their full lips and pretty smiles just reminded him of the girls he also liked. And the way they laughed at his jokes gave him butterflies because he thought he would be able to make a girl laugh like that…
Steve has got to work on his reasoning skills.
“If you don’t know, you could always…” Eddie trails off as Steve is snapped back into the moment.
“Mess up your theoretical lipstick?” Steve supplies.
Eddie nods.
“What if I just want to kiss you? No lipstick involved?” Steve asks and watches that beautiful flush spread over Eddie’s cheeks, making his heart flutter in his chest.
“I would ask what’s holding you back.”
Steve smiles and kisses Eddie. And yeah. He definitely likes boys, particularly Eddie Munson, even when he isn’t in drag.

Valentine's Day 1985
I wanted to feature some platonic/family Valentine's Day drabbles, since that's how I personally like the holiday. Primo and 8-year old Copia from my AU. I'm dedicating this one to @ghuleh-recs because they have have done so much for the community and inspired me to just go big.
I have three planned! Let's keep the love going! Ficlet/Drabble Below the cut!
Tumblr media
It was nearly afternoon and Copia could not find Primo anywhere. Copia had been waiting for him back in their shared cell, art supplies in hand. Primo always woke earlier than everyone else, off to do some chore or other. On the other side of the cell was Primo’s bed, neatly made. Primo didn't collect much— just a few of Copia’s paper sculptures on his nightstand, a framed photo of his mother. His watch was there too, which meant he was out on a run. So that could be it. On bad days he would be out running for hours. Copia unfolded his carefully cut art project, scrutinizing the shapes and folds of the little dolls linking arms. He had hidden his craft supplies in a shoebox under his bed, doing his best to work in secret lest his brother discover his surprise.
“Down in the kitchen, maybe,” Copia said to his three rats in the nearby cage. It was cold and so they continued to nap in their pile of felt and fur. Copia got to his feet, tucking the card in his book and shoving the whole thing under his arm. After his little doorknob-tapping ritual (once for his rats, twice for bravery, three times for luck) he was out and en route to the dining hall.
“Came in from his jog,” recalled Sister Agatha as Copia found her in the dining hall. She gestured over to the spotless kitchen. “Then noticed the range needed cleaning.”
“And he was here?”
“Oh, about two hours too long,” chuckled Agatha. “Then he fixed that knocking going on in the fridge. Then back out the door. And that was that.” She shuffled over to a tinfoil-covered plate and pulled out a little something for the boy. A heart-shaped cookie, decorated with pink crystals of sugar. “Don't forget this on your way out, Mr. Holmes.”
“Thank you.” Copia inserted the cookie into his mouth, did a little hop and scurried out. Nothing else to fix, so Primo moved on to his most common little problem. Copia now knew exactly where Primo was.
As soon as Copia stepped out into the cold he heard the familiar thwack echo across the stone walls of the Ministry building. Primo was by the garden shed, adding to the already precariously tall woodpile one axe blow at a time.
Primo was an easygoing sort of person, an unflappable pillar of good natured-ness, but Copia had known his adoptive father-brother for so long that he could tell exactly what was on his mind. This sudden onset of busy-ness, the relentless puttering only meant one thing:
It was not going well with him and a paramour.
Primo noticed him and buried the axe head into the stump with an effortless toss. There was a haze of heated persperation wafting from his rough friar’s habit. He smiled, but his eyes felt far away. “Ah, sorry, you wanted to show me something, I forgot. Copia, where's your coat?”
Copia swallowed. “Um er…are you and…Brother Vincenzo…”
“Ah, Vinny?” Primo curbed a grimace. “I needed to be by myself for a while.”
Copia burned with embarrassment. “Sorry I um…I…”
“Too many differences,” said Primo plainly. “We're on good terms, though. Don't worry.” He settled in on the cement bench nearby, a thin unsteady smile on his face. “Didn't care too much for this holiday anyway. What you got there, mausi?”
Copia dropped the book in his lap, and Primo touched the title with his fingers, reading aloud slowly. “Paper…paper cutouts.”
“Yes, like this!” Copia pulled out the bundle of folded papers, expanding it wide in front of him with a grin. “Tah-dah!”
“Oh, wow!”
“It's for you. Em…Happy Valentine's Day. Sorry.”
“What you sorry about?”
Copia looked down at the frozen dirt, his face burning. He wanted so badly for Primo to be well. Primo did everything in his power to build a wall of normalcy around him, and as Copia grew he felt its presence more and more. It tugged at his heart knowing that he could do little to help. For a moment he doubted if he did his doorknob ritual before leaving for the day— he wouldn't feel this way if he did. He must have forgot. More embarrassment. More springs winding.
Primo gave a good-natured scoff. “It happens.” He reached out with a roughened hand and investigated the little chain of paper dolls. “Fine work here, mausi. Thank you. Happy Valentine's Day, Copia.”
“I wanted to teach you,” Copia replied, his voice growing strong as Primo’s praise bolstered his spirit.
“I'd love to learn,” Primo said, and he rose, creaking, to his feet. “And we need to get you inside. Bring a coat next time.” He gestured at Copia once more, and the boy held his hand. The semi-frozen ground crunched underfoot as they crossed the lawn. “Lunch first?”
Copia nodded. “Sister Agatha made cookies.”
“Paper cutouts,” Primo mused. They got to the door, and he let Copia in but not without a teasing ruffle of his hair. “So…is this why I kept seeing all those little pieces of white paper all over the carpets, huh?” Primo smirk. “Nihil stole a box of xerox paper for you?”
“He…said he'd put it back,” Copia muttered shyly.
