Hi, Ive seen some of your jimstrade content and it's really really good. I saw that you said you had artblock, and I had an idea for a jimstrade drawing. Could you draw a hurt/comfort jimstrade where Jim is having a panic attack or breakdown and Greg is trying to comfort him and getting him to breathe. Maybe Jim could also cry into Greg's shoulder pr something? If not, that's ok. Just thought it would be a fun idea. Love your work, you're amazing. Bye! 💜

HI HI HELLO THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS IS SO SWEET I APPRECIATE IT ALOT!!! Sadly i couldnt draw this entire idea and im so sorry its so wholesome and amazing and i love it :(

i did an uhhh some storyboard-ish thing to visualise the idea and i hope i did good. if not then please tell me how to do it right id appreciate it :]

kinda long so its cut!!

Thump - heavy breathing

Jim are you o-? - SHIT, Jim!

Oh, Jim - Jim, look at me

Kinda want to make a version where he doesn't let Greg touch him now. God i fucking love respecting boundaries

Can I touch you, Jim?

*nods*

It's okay, Jim, look at me - now let's take a deep breath

Erased one hand and needed to redraw the other since i want it to be on the side of his shoulder/arm not near his neck to show more of support rather than an attempt to control

Haa(hoo) - very good, Jim. Now I want you to look at your hands

My...

I know the breathing part needs more time and more breathing and that its gonna take a few good tries but i got just one frame sorry

hands?

and your feet.

again, this would probably take more time

and at me

are you okay? - mhm - do you wanna go to bed? - mhm - let's go then

Again im so sorry i couldnt do more but this is a really sweet idea thank you so much for it!! Hope you have a great day<33

#sorry #and thank you #theyre so amazing i love them #they mean so much to me #bbc sherlock #sherlock bbc #sherlock #jim moriarty #jimstrade #greg lestrade #curse you artblock

HELLO PLEASE READ :DDD

(ok fyi i had to rewrite this TWICE because tumblr is being a little BITCH!!! I LOST 5 PARAGRAPHS SO ILL SUMMARISE IT THE BEST AS I CAN LMAO)

HEY HI HELLO!!! here i rise.. from the ashes.... good grief i am covered in sand

anyways, ur probably wondering what the hell happened to this acc... "WHY DID YOU DIE???!!" i can hear you scream. heres one word:

SCHOOL!!!! fucking SCHOOL I TELL YA

a few weeks before i actually enrolled and started school, i started this acc, and ohh did it pair SO nicely with the fact i had a major artblock between the creation of my account and my enrollment date /s

lately ive been trying to catch up with schoolwork since i enrolled late and last year.. school didnt go so well for me... so im trying the best i can n getting good scores without trunking up somehow this year which meant most of my art motivation had to be used in the mere free times i get so far per week. i became inactive here so i can keep track of my online activity better (mainly only sticking to twitter)

its been now a few months, and its been... radically better?? i guess??? ive been feeling a bit more lively and my mental health isnt making me all sludgy wudgy anymore, school has been a bit easy on me eventhough i tho, so i thought i could maybe tackle just ONE more platform now that i GENUINLY wanna make art rn, and then i remembered this acc! people seemed to really enjoy it last time it went active, so i thought "well.. maybe ill try again one more time!"

so my planned schedule for this acc is that ill post a few asks per week! it doesnt sound like a lot, but i only have a few hours along with a day free per week so its the minimum i can do to keep this blog alive <:) im SO sorry about the unannounced hiatus lmao, so heres yall treat for being so patient with me <3

in the case i go inactive again, im mainly active on twitter (CozyGalaxies) and instagram is where i usually post any art i think is cool though not that active (waterflowpow) so if you wanna harass me and beat me up to come back up here again... theres that LOL.

theres more stuff on my carrd so here u go https://cozygalaxies.carrd.co/

aaaannnddd,,, thats it! again thank you SO much for being rly patient with me and im EXTREMELY FUCKING SORRY THAT I NEARLY FORGOT ABOUT THIS PLACE :((((((( I LOVE YALL (MWAHS U) SEND ANY NEW ASKS BECAUSE MY INBOX IS EMPTY!!! GO GO GO

i only recently (as in today lol) discovered your art and can't get over how talented you are so 2, 4, 14 and 18 from the artist asks please!

hiii!! thank you so much, i really appreciate it!! 😭 (also seeing ur username in my notifications will never Not be funny as hell DJDJDJDKDKDJ)

2. who is your favorite character to draw?

this changes sooo often lmao but my favorite character to draw rn is my detective kincaid!! here's a lil wip of him :]

4. how often do you draw?

between being busy with school and also dealing with mental health stuff for years now, i really don't have a set schedule or anything 😭😭

i will either get hit by inspiration and sit and draw for 7 hours straight Or i won't draw for weeks at a time (which you can kinda tell from my uploading schedule lmao) i also get artblocked pretty often so 💀 i do try to draw as often as possible lol bcs no matter what i say, i do actually enjoy it jdjdjdjdjdj

14. what was something that you used to draw a lot you don't draw as much anymore?

this could just be any of my fandoms that i left over time but Overall, probably anime stuff. that's how i rlly started out with my art lol just obsessively drawing kakashi or whoever i was into when i was 12 idk 😭😭

i haven't watched any anime in a long ass time tho for some reason

18. how long have you been drawing/ when did you officially "declare" yourself as an artist?

ive always been the 'artistic kid'. ever since i was like a toddler lol. i started drawing seriously in november 2015 or something like that so i was. 10?? started drawing digitally and got my first wacom tablet in 2016

tbh before the pandemic started last year i didn't Really consider myself an artist? everyone around me called me that and i would draw almost every day but yeah idk. during the lockdown i had So much time to sit and reflect around a lot of shit and i realized that i Am an artist. imo if u make something and put it out there then congrats!! ur an artist, babey. there's no need to be rigid about this label tbh were all just trying to live and create stuff

#thanks for asking!!! and for following me. welcome :] #answered #crackerdumortain

i yearn for one(1) thing only, and that is to have a nice, simplistic, cartoonish artstyle. an artstyle that doesnt rely on anatomy, but the "movement" of the drawing, if you get what i mean.

i dont want realistic proportions and traditional colors and basic poses and gradient shading, i want funky lil dudes in funky poses with funky styles littering my sketchbook :( but alas i havent figured out how to develop that kind of style yet, my brain wants anatomy to look nice but also i dont want to draw eyes. i dont want to take time out of my day to learn how to draw lips i want to draw a line that extends past the characters face. i dont want all my characters to have pointy chins with curved cheeks i want their heads to be round and friend-like or full of sharp edges depending on their personalities and styles. i want to give them all not-quite human ears, blob feet, simple faces, but at the same time i want enough detail to convey the story or emotion im trying to tell.

ive spent so much time recently agonizing over how to use 3d model websites, using real-life references and tracing over them for practice, color-picking from real images to try and do realism and failing miserably, but you know whats easier than that? funky little dudes. little dudes who do not care if their legs are too long or their hair is too bouncy. i dont want my characters to look human.

ive spent enough time on the artfight website to realize that most people who classify their characters as "human" have the most basic ass designs (no offense to people who like basic human designs its just not my thing) or its like dnd-medieval style outfits which i cant draw for the life of me (ive tried). again no offense to people who actively enjoy and draw characters like that. i just need my dudes to have that certain,,, off-ness to them. tails are cool. wings are swag (especially if they arent even like,, fully attached,, ), elf ears are so wonderful to me no matter how much theyre overused, horns are so much fun to draw, and colors!! i have no knowledge in the color theory department so this works great for me!! the only thing i really know is dont shade with black, other than that i just colorpick from references usually but i dont want to do that!! i want the colors to hurt people's eyes but in a satisfying way. like the character's design is so nice to look at that you dont mind your eyes hurting a bit. like how im enjoying writing this post even though its 2 am and the brightness on my computer wont go any lower.

and then another thing ive noticed from being on the artfight website is that a lot of people classify their characters that are anthro/have anthro features under humanoids/monsters. like i made a google form to find some people to attack and someone sent me in a character with some sort of animal (wolf? idk) arms and legs. like dude!! peak character design i love her. but me personally? i cant draw that shit, its so hard for me. i tried a while back and its just Not my thing. nothing against furries i just. cant. and i dont want to either.

and i got another submission that i accidentally deleted that was like full anthro/wolf-like like my comrade,,, i cannot draw animals what makes you think i can draw an animal who acts like a human lmao. i can do like. very basic tails, and also animal ears but i cant do the arms and legs and such i just dont know the anatomy, and i know i was talking about how i dont want to care about anatomy but i feel like for anthros you really do need to know at least basic animal anatomy so you know how the limbs look and shit and i dont have that knowledge and dont feel like gaining it.

and then there were some submissions that i absolutely adored. there was one that like, was vaguely human shaped but definitely was not a human. they had a dark-ish lavender colored skin and horns and tusks and like goat ears and a sorta fluffy tail with spikes on it and they had wings and such and they were such a pleasure to draw i love them. and they had a fairly simple outfit too, nothing too complicated. and then i also enjoy object head characters, theyre so neato to me. i got one of those and i really wish i had the motivation to work on it cause it looks so fun.

i want to make funky characters but id have nothing to do with them because the only book i ever tried writing (key word tried - never got past planning it out) had strictly human characters in it, and most of the books i read are humans/humans with powers in situations specific to them so id have no idea what lore to make with the dudes. assuming i have the motivation to make lore and backstory because honestly i just really enjoy character designing its super duper fun.

(side note a song about trucks doing the deed came on just now and its interrupted my flow, apologies).

i only have three actual characters right now. one is an original roleplay oc whos design is literally athletic shorts, an oversized long sleeved grey sweatshirt, long purple hair, and demon horns. the second one is my persona whos design some sorta medival knight outfit kinda thing? but not ugly it looks really cool (idk one of my friends designed it bc i won some contest from him but the drawing was on a super small scale so idrk the details,,,) with a plague doctor mask and crown, and shoulder length wavy brown hair, dyed bright pink at the end. and then my last one im not too comfortable using other places because theyre a character my friend is using in the story hes writing, and thats really the only place theyve been used. but theyre easily my favorite and im already writing a ton so ill talk about them too.

they're a sorta elf species thing from another planet, with pale green skin and pointed ears. they also have a tail, its like,, super thin, but with a feathery bit at the end. probably not the texture of a feather but i dont know how else to describe it. they have short, curly, almost-draco-malfoy-blonde hair that when it gets too long they can put in a man bun. their eyesight is kinda shitty so when they got to earth, they were exploring some supply closets around the airship. drop off area. thing. like airport but for rocketships and also fancier. yeah. they were exploring that area and found a nice big pair of round glasses with grey frames. and they also found a cowboy-style hat and a sharpie so they wrote their name on the underside of the brim of the hat and stole the hat and glasses (but left the sharpie in the supply closet).

yeah theyre my favorite, my absolute beloved, my child, so cool. i want more characters like them but with maybe a bit more snazzier designs. theyre super cool and all but they could have more pizzazz if they werent in a story where its too late to give them more pizzazz. i just want to be able to give my characters thigh-high boots with a bunch of buckles and fluffy hair with tons of accessories crammed in and abnormally large and long ears that can harbor many piercings and horns that can hold rings on them and special little details on their outfits like who knows what but i dont have any characters to do that too, so i have to make them from scratch, which is always hard especially when you have artblock.

and i also have like 17 characters i need to fully draw, line, and maybe color for artfight before august 1st. so i dont know. i have many things to do and plenty of time to do it but instead i spend my time halfway watching repetitive youtube videos that get boring or sleeping all damn day because i stay up too late doing things like this or i just do nothing at all and its tiring and frustrating but i also feel nothing about it like theres no consequence if i dont do it besides you know. not doing it, not gaining that experience, not making something i enjoy.

so i should do it but i dont for whatever reason, i think its called executive dysfunction but im not sure. this post started out very differently than it ended and i said somewhere up there that i was writing this at 2 am but now its almost 3. this is so many words why couldnt i have put this energy into something productive

#long post #sorry its so messy but like i said its almost 3 am and i dont want to go back and format all this #i might come back and make it look nicer in the morning #maybe not who knows #i just checked and this is 1.5k words what the hell

THE NEW CHAPTER FOR NEW RULES HAS ME SHOOK Idk if its my hormones acting up or something but boi i cried when jimin brought up his confession note

Anonymous said:I'm so upset and shocked, I get that Jimin doesn't like OC anymore but he deserves to know how snakey and shady Mijoo is. It's just wrong. I'm so sad :(

Anonymous said:is it weird that ive actually cried over pt2 of new rules? i was so mad !!! i definitely wouldn't have be able to contain myself and id lash out omg i hate betrayal so much!!! i sorry im just so emotional right now! i hope all of this is for the best and props to oc for being so level-headed and mature about this whole thing!! and ofc thank you for writing it ♥️

luxinfired said:Hey Lu! I enjoyed New Rules 2 even though my heart broke for the OC 😭 I liked the turn of events, but wow Mijoo... I didn't expect that, from her and hopefully she isn't just evil, I hope there's more than meets the eye about her. As usual, great work! Your OCs are so richly portrayed, I love that :)

Anonymous said:I read new rules and i honestly haven't been able to stop thinking about it all day. Part 2 really has me in my feelings.. i feel pretty similar to oc.. i wouldn't want to hurt my precious friend but my heart hurts thinking about not being able to tell the truth to anyone (except for jk i guess lol) i hope they can resolve their feelings and still be friends and i hope jimin knows that oc really did love him.. but anyways i loved it thank u so much for writing! 💓

Anonymous said:holy shit lu new rules chapter 2 fucked me up i did nOT SeE THAT ONE COMING I love your writing omg that one hit me like a truck... but.... poor oc

Anonymous said:new rules ch2 fucked me up, lu why are you doing this to me??????

Anonymous said:(spoiler just in case) i think tumblr cancelled my message, but seriously i almost punched myself over OC's friend like who even does that? I thought OC would've confessed at the point where Jimin revealed that, but I understand her decision. I feel her sadness as if my own T.T

artblocks said:UGH LU THAT UPDATE IS MAKING ME CRY!! I feel so sad that OC didn't get to be with Jimin (it is a Jungkook fanfic after all but still!!) ... like I wish she told him that she didn't receive anything ;-; I hope OC will be happier in the future updates! Ugh I get too immersed in your writing T-T great job Lu

Anonymous said:I hurt my own feelings reading new rules but I loved every angsty second of it! I just love how much character and depth you give each oc it's so enjoyable to read. I hope you're doing well too be happy and healthy!

curiosityuponus said:I teared up with the new NR chapter. I mean, how fucking low and disgusting from Mijoo. While the main char swallowed her feelings to not hurt her, she sabotages any way to get into Jimin's pants. I soooo want her to break off that toxic friendship and take Jimin back. Oh god, I'll be screeching in happiness. Poor JK tho, but no hard feelings when there's none in the beginning haha. I want Mijoo sad and alone❤ Anyways, whatever you'll do with the story I'll like so🙆 Can't wait for next chap!

Anonymous said:fuck. I cried so hard reading New Rules Chapter 2 and I was so angry, screaming and shouting. You got me fucked up, Lu. I can only hope this shit never happens to me. But honestly tho - imo, the OC needs to cut off Mijoo. Like what kind of friend is she? Backstabbing bitch. It's toxic. I can't handle that toxicity and would cut that shit out. Once is enough to show the true character of a person. And I want to hug and cry with the OC so badly. I'm really sad. My heart is breaking with hers.

Anonymous said:The OC didn't deserve that my heart broke. Like wow how can people be so selfish and this is just writing. You are just so good. Wow.

Anonymous said:omg...i feel so bad for the oc...jimin liked her back but she didn't get to have a happy ending with him bc of mijoo 😢 ahhh the oc handled it so sweetly :(

Anonymous said:New Rules made me cry so much... My mother looked quite worried when she walked in and saw me sobbing. In addition, I just can't help but despise Mijee for not giving Y/N Jimin's note!!! :(

Anonymous said:🎶Quit playing games with my heart🎶😭

Anonymous said:god that update for new rules made me so sad :( i'm surprised at how the oc dealt with confronting mijoo and forgiving her, but it makes me love her so much more as well (heavens know what i'd do with the temper that i have). now i just want to give oc a hug, some pints of high quality ice cream, and tell her how beautiful she is inside and out

Anonymous said:+++ (I didn't add the pluses before but I'm the anon talking about the seat of someone's pants metaphor.) I kinda wish that the OC had raged at Mijoo or something like that, simply because unleashing anger is cathartic and it pains me to think of her holding all of those emotions in a pent up place, but the way she handled things was the most mature way, so I respect her so much. This series is probably my favorite ever because it's so relatable and so in touch with +++

doubletroublesince1994 said:OMG I CANT BELIEVE YOU MADE ME CRY WITH THE SECOND CHAPTER MIJOO IS SUCH A BITCH AND THE MAIN GIRL IS TOO NICE AND JIMIN DESERVES TO KNOW WHAT REALLY HAPPENED BECAUSE ITS NOT FAIR OMG THIS IS TOO MUCH FOR ME TO HANDLE

ahhh it’s amazing how many ppl i’ve made sad or cry with this chapter :( can you believe that when I first started this series out, I didnt expect there to be any angst? i thought it would all be crack smut comedy fluff. aksdfjkl what is wrong with me...? :”) 

sorry guys. i think im on my period and i just have a lot of pent up feelings haha. Thank u for being sad with me D:
