Quickly drew this because I just gave up on working on my papers lmao- (I still got around 5 days to finish it so it's fine)
I was supposed to draw him on his Dorm uniform (since that was the card I got from the recent banner), but I suddenly remembered the reason why he became my one of my top fave
which was because of this one scene/screenshot
I literally paused for a minute because I was trying to figure out if his genuine default expression was an angry one that I never noticed w/ glasses or if he was squinting bcs he had a terrible eyesight. He was already a a favorite of mine, but he just immediately jumped to very high on my list after this for some reasons (most likely because of that expression that made me pause KASJHAKSjh)

What is the wildest piece of trivia from the game you know?
Coming from a wiki editor, I'm a behind the scenes historian. Some few examples include:
The fact the key promotional artist was semi-viral in the Spanish JoJo community.
The fact Jacksepticeye played a prior project from Genow (Robin is the game in question).
The fact Maki was the first character created in general.
The cut cutscenes between Vanessa & Hoaxe.
Being indirectly responsible for leaking new info about the game because I copied & pasted something from the discord server.
And the funniest one.
Genow accidentally liking a NSFW artist's SFW Kabbu fanart and being unaware on the content that person draws.
bold of you to assume i know any cool trivia that i didn't learn from the wiki lmao. EVERYTHING you just said is new information to me
like, some background lore i know is the "you shouldnt be able to use the compass in the beehive" argument, leif used to a lady named cerise, some of the characters came from an earlier version where the game was about sea creatures instead of bugs.
but yeah most of the trivia i know is throw away lines from having team snakemouth chit chat/talk to npcs that mean absolutely nothing to the overall game but mean everything to me <3

Holy God This Is All So Boring
i am taking microscope images of the cells i'm studying. the cells were grown on a glass plate before i fixed them (killed & chemically preserved), so by default a microscope image of them is taken from a camera below them, looking up through the glass. they're stained with fluorescent dyes for four different proteins, so every single picture has to be repeated four times with a different laser light illuminating the cells (imagine taking a photo with a red filter, a blue filter, and a green filter, and then composing them all together to get the full picture. it's actually almost exactly the opposite of that, but that's close enough).
i care mostly about how the cells are shaped in three dimensions, and i'm using a laser which is specially shaped so it can collect only a very thin slice of the cells in the Z-direction, without interference from the parts of the cells just above or just below what i'm taking pictures of. as a result, i need to take lots of pictures at different depths in the cells, so i can get slices that i can stack on top of each other and get back a 3D shape. also, because i am using a tiny concentrated beam of light to achieve the above effects, it has to scan across the image to collect each picture, like a scanner; it can't just be collected in a single snapshot like a photo.
the distance between one slice and the next is less than a quarter of a micrometer. i'm using a 63x magnified magnifying lens to magnify the image, and the light detector that picks up the light is specially made to allow the images to be processed even further, so i can resolve structures that are less than 200 nanometers, which is the Abbé limit and is the technical resolution limit of light microscopy (don't worry about this). i care about things that are the size of, like, three proteins stuck together, and therefore maybe 10nm wide, so this is important to me.
all of this is, you know, scientifically great, very useful to me, i'm getting some very interesting results that i am genuinely looking forward to thinking about more, except the upshot of all of this is that just getting a single picture of two cells from the bottom to top of the cells involves 80-100 slices and takes like 27 minutes per image to collect, and i need at least six pictures tonight, and certain bastards in certain other labs habitually pre-book the microscope so i can't use it except at 5-9pm on a friday. no one else is here in the lab and my mother is busy with elder care and my girlfriend is busy with like, groceries, so i can't call either of them even if i weren't too irritable to be good company, and oh my god, i am so bored, i am so so bored, i am bored enough even to type out this whole explanation even though none of you could possibly care because it took most of my current round of waiting for 27 minutes to do

I edited a shirtless pic of myself in procreate to make my chest flat and I am just enamored.
like it makes me so excited I wanna show it off to everyone but I have no one to show it off to. like who goes around like HEY CHECK OUT THIS PHOTO EDIT I MADE OF ME WITH MY TOP OFF AND TITLESS ISNT IT NEAT?! who wants to be shown that? no one.
but rly I think I could look at it all day. kinda weird, but man, the euphoria. like a sparkler
