#and also finish this game. yea

[theresa-of-liechtenstein]

it's taken me far too long, but i've now been tagged thrice in this, and it is high time i did this tag game: thank you to @sircarolyn, @malcolm-f-tucker, and @supercantaloupe for the shoutouts!

Rules: share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics and tag ten people. If you have written fewer than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway!

Airspeed Sixty, January 2023, Cabin Pressure, 1.6k

Behind the fence separating people from the habitat of planes, a tinier-than-usual Martin waved energetically in farewell as Theresa undid her safety vest just outside the little Cessna, having just finished her preflight inspection.

und freundlich zeigst du den Weg, January 2023, Cabin Pressure, 1.5k

All of aviation runs on a standard time; by virtue of the island they share having been home to a naval superpower (and Herc, consummate Englishman he is, will definitely not get into an argument with his Scottish first officer in the flightdeck of the aircraft owned by their Scottish airline about anything nearly related) it just so happens that that standard time is also the one they live by, this time of year.

(I checked this one multiple times. I swear it's only one sentence. I think the '15 words per sentence max' rule I had for my technical communications class during the fall term really did a number on me.)

La question c'est «Voulez-vous?», December 2022, Cabin Pressure, 6.7k

When the going got particularly bad, Theresa always found her inner voice defaulting to Bavarian, partly because a good chunk of her blood came from there, but mostly because she liked their swears best.

Tutto al mondo tal figlia è per me, December 2022, Cabin Pressure, 1.4k (in progress)

Until his firstborn daughter is placed in his arms, Colin Fairbairn is blissfully unaware of how tiny a human can be.

This Kiss to All the World, December 2022, Cabin Pressure, 649

All pilots capture her eye. They always have.

Advenio, December 2022, Cabin Pressure, 400

His body is twisted in spare sheets stiff from disuse.

Hands Up and Touch the Sky, December 2022, Cabin Pressure, 2.8k

If there ever were such a thing as divine mercy, Herc Shipwright thought that being called from reserve to cover the coveted “Holidayer Line” almost immediately after filing his fourth divorce was proof enough of its existence. 

Figlie, December 2022, Cabin Pressure, 1.7k

It’s not really in the job description, but she’s there anyway, watching the office in case of a phone call or airfield management walking in with paperwork to fill.

Gaudium quod est immensum, atque probum, October 2022, Cabin Pressure, 11.8k

For an airport which was now more often on Herc’s paperwork as a diversion option, Bristol was still familiar enough for him to get around without major trouble.

Short a Fuse, All Cylinders Firing, September 2022, Cabin Pressure, 2.8k

His breath punches out of his chest as he watches the two of them bathing in a deluge of light, dust motes dancing in the cascade around them.

and there's the past ten fics :3 personally i really think some of my best work is in this list, particularly the works a little farther back. also december 2022, apparently, was a great time for releasing pent-up fic lol.

anyway, tagging: @stoppablethetramstory, @fortheloveofmundanity, @lunanimal, @arendelve, @leporellian, @lonelyroommp3, @linguini17, and... ugh i am absolutely drawing a blank as to who else i think is a writer here and hasn't been tagged in anything i've seen, we're gonna have to leave it there.

#now that i'm looking at this i can see how insufferable i've been with the lfeu #and the actual lfeu piece (shipwright & fairbairn) isn't even included on here! #i can see why people might be tired of me lol. sorry (is not sorry because nobody is obligated to read what i write) #there's a lot of fic in the works that isn't lfeu i just need to find the time and energy #and also finish this game. yea #also like i only ever write cabin pressure fic hehe #anyways #em writes #em answers

#alright i suppose i should tell what's up lately! im mostly posting this like a mini update or whatever haha #so - since i made that last post on my disappearance i worked endlessly to finish my animation project and thank goodness it's finally over #i had to take a break from trying to be social here and just stay in my own space and i did that by having a smaller side blog to ramble #the project was very... tiring - definitely took out so much energy from me post physically and mentally and i was just frustrated everyday #so i just took my time to be alone with a few close people and i like to think im okay now? #i like to think so - since i was able to deliver a few commission drafts today so i'm relieved that im back to my usual pace #I'll post a few of my doodles here i did during my project just to fill the void haha #i've acquired a minor familial from another video game and i care for him a lot :] idk ill bother to talk abt it here but yeah thats funnn #also indulging a lil bit of t.n.m.n content as of late also thanks to my friend who knows abt it hehe #soo yeah! I don't know if ill be active like the usual but know that i'm doing alright now! hope everyone's doing okay too xoxo #ill probably still stay in my smaller blog for a little longer but will occasionally pop in here! #sooo yaaa #~ art #♥️ memoryshipping #also yea i think no.rton only had like. 10 days worth of being the blog brand here until i switched back to the usual guy lmaooo sorry 😔

[anewp0tat0]

late as per usual, but this was April's theme back at the Black Butler Animo: (video)games!

I chose a game that not so many people know but still is my favorite game so far(I mean sure I haven't played so many but whatever) so yea, I'm gonna chose it as an AU. the dialogue is pretty weird cause I'm trying to cram exposition in there lol, but whatever, hope the art's fine atleast.

*ciel speaking*

*sebastian, then ciel speaking*

*ciel speaking*

#i wrote bullet points for a whole plot so that these would make sense to me so yea. i tried to cram some of that in the dialogue.... #..... but also id say this dialogue isn't so much worse than the actual game dialoque though lol. it's not perfect #kuroshitsuji #black butler #kuroshitsuji fanart #fanart #sebastian michaelis #ciel phantomhive #digital art #o!ciel #AU #my AU's #life is strange #you could say dadbastian.... but really this ends up being brobastian lol #I mean the game is cool if anyone is thinking about playing! it certainly wasnt a waste of my 30 hours so I hope this is encouraging #the last two are kinda rushed compared to the first cause I only posted the 1st on the 2end of may and still wanted to finish the last 2 #I thought the narrative would be incomplete otherwise. it was fun

sunshine court no context

#i'm sorry... i couldnt stop thinking of this meme while reading the beginning #lemme find the line that really set it in for me... ok it was 'have fun whoring your way to the top of another line-up you useless bitch' #the raven hate mail game was insane #anyways yea i just spent like 3 hours straight reading tsc and yes i just finished it #the sunshine court #the sunshine court spoilers #all for the game #nora sakavic #also neil continuing the time-honored tradition of murdering rapists at the end of the book was iconic. king #i need to reread the og trilogy sighhhh the second book is a lil hard for me to get thru though #but i liked this one a ton. all the characters felt very real #i liked the choice to make the trojans not all sunshine and rainbows but have to make an effort to keep up that appearance #and also oml these bitches are worried about jean ruining their reputation when they have LUCAS on the lineup ? yall have bigger problems.. #thats a joke i just think lucas is a bitch #i was also surprised by jean ending up pan vs jeremy just gay because the fandom characterization has always been the opposite #but yknow what i like it a lot #tempted to put a whole book review right in these tags but i won't #aftg // #tsc spoilers #tsc

Hands you my silly little durge and her goth girlfriend who have strange and peculiar t4t shit goin

#baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #bg3 shadowheart #shadowheart #bg3 dark urge #bg3 durge #durge #dark urge #might color/add some extra shit to this but tbh i'm happy with it #didn't even do like a sketch to line over for this i just kinda went nuts doing quick lines #also i have shadowheart in some modded armor hence all the belts...... #my durge however is just like. drawn in what i default to drawing characters in ajhdgsajhdg #also yea my durge is like. 5 foot 3 so she's SO much shorter than shadowheart but they look like they're the same height in game #so i drew them closer to their in-game heights than their actual heights in this #I HAVE ALSO FINISHED SHADOWHEART'S STORY LINE THIS IS MOSTLY THEIR ACT 1 DYNAMIC JAHDGJAH #their act 3 dynamic is closer to 2 wet beasts with the saddest eyes barely making it through anything cuz they're both Not Okay #also i did this shit while high if i remember right?? so some anatomy and shit might be wonky but tbh i love it #col art

attempted the trials in the colosseum yesterday

I felt the need to draw this AU Kin again so here's an entire doodle page, featuring my fear of primal aspids.

#hollow knight #hk lost kin #doodles #attempting the trial of the fool was a mistake #I haven't even finished the game yet #I hate primal aspids #and the shielded fools #they keep screwing me over #also yea the top right doodle is just the strat of hugging the wall during the belfly barrage #no I did not use a reference for the bench. I know it looks wrong but im so tired already please just don't look at it

ok i might need to force myself to not romance astarion bc i don't want to know what it says about me to turn down karlach, the woman of my dreams, the character made to cater me personally, like, if she was real i'd bring the moon and stars down for the chance to see her smile, she's everything i've hoped for in a rpg companion, what does it say about me if i turn that down for someone like astarion

#ngl karlach would be too good for me and i wouldnt deserve it #shed probably ask me stuff like 'what do you want?' upon which i would be paralyzed with fear my mind completely blank unable #to process why i can't answer a simple question #and she's so up front with her emotions which i absolutely adore but i could not reciprocate that #wait am i actually for real avoiding the karlach romance bc i feel like this fictional character from a video game is too good for me #a real human being. like. i think i would feel guilty about romancing her #which makes no sense bc i romance characters too good for anyone all of the time. but idk #in those cases ive always had like a strong character i play as who is very divorced from who i am #but playing as durge there is no past so idk who my tav is yet so all i can do is project so he feels very. personal #im v sleepy and also ive had brain fog all day so yea idk #i mean i do genuinely like astarion and his character but in his case i dont feel guilty bc i feel like i #i have no idea how to finish that sentence without it sounding like 'i can fix him' #bc i dont want to fix him i want to show him compassion and respect him and his boundaries so he'll be able to reclaim tje feeling of #being in control of his life #so he'll stop putting people down to feel like hes on a pedestal #like i get him and why he is like that but i just feel like being kind and caring towards him would feel so good #it wouldnt fix him and thats a good thing bc i dont want him to change who he is but i do think he needs support #also hes hot im so mad at myself for being so atteacted to him #we wouldnt b here if i didnt have a thing for voices #besides thag back to the main point of astarion its like. ugh! im so frustrated rn bc i dont have the words #to express my emotions toward him bc everything ive said lacks the nuance that im feelikg but idk how to put it in words #i guess i want to protect him? that such a terrible sentence and still not what om going for

hey everyone sorry for the silence, i was trying very hard to catch up with school work that i didnt manage to hand in on time. anyway i made a full body 3d model of my oc lucifer for a digital sculpting assignment :)

i posted a lot of the making process of this on twitter and i’ve also compiled everything into a moment that you can find here! go take a look if youre interested in watching me and lucifer suffer <3

(and also bonus dmc5 render looking pic of him bc a friend asked me to do it as a joke. my son is a dmc5 character now)

#he took abt 1 month and half to finish bc not only was i new to modeling and sculpting humans i also kept procrastinating lmao #i learned a lot though! and despite almost having multiple mental breakdowns over this it was fun #it was always a dream of mine to make my own 3d model of an oc so this is literally a dream come true im very happy for lucifer #i'll definitely be doing more with his model in the future; im planning to optimize it (bc the polycount is like. 8mil) and then rig it #so i can make him do all sorts of cool poses. maybe even mod him into some games. like idk. dmc5. who knows #anyway thats all from me for this week im fucking tired and i need to rest. i literally stayed up to 2am for two days just to finish him lol #i'll go back to posting art soon hopefully </3 #my ocs #lucifer(oc) #how should i tag this so i can find him easier in the future... #lucifer becomes 3d #yea ok there we go i'll just use that. if i ever post any more 3d stuff with him i'll use that tag lmao #okay now lucifer's gonna hibernate for 3 months after the suffering i put him through and im gonna go back to drawing. see u guys later <3

#river dipping #skdjhdfgjkf #i'm trying to figure out how to explain that he's not actually evil he's just an asshole but like not really #but internally he's so so awful but also not #i need all of you to just be in my brain so you can understand the real depths here okay #he's kind of the worst but also my little guy . he's awful but he's sweet . #he's uhhhhh multidimensional or whatever #but yea i'm realizing now that maybe calling him evil all the time gave ppl some Ideas about him that aren't true at all 😭 #i'm finishing up checking on my activity feed as you can tell. this is the last thing i gotta reply to so i'm drafting my response 🧑‍💻 #also i didn't say hi when i logged in but hi #tho i'm actually going to bed soon so i'm posting to say hi but also bye kjdfgnkhjhf #i uh... definitely meant to update my game today so i could spin the sim lush made for me around #but. i've been wracked with Do Nothing-itis all day and have just been reading and occasionally coming on here to scroll for a bit
