[rukafais]

always fucks me up (positive) when i realise there’s folks out there who look at my art and are like “this is inspirational to me”, just wanna stare at the ceiling for hours about it

#sometimes i just think about it and am like woag....people like my art.... #thats so cool..... #i remember being a teen on deviantart staring at artists going woa...i wish i could draw like that #and sometimes i still am #but i am also that artist for other people now its kinda cool

Steven Universe.. hit different and I don’t really understand why? Thinking about any of my other old hypefixations, I smile. But Steven Universe just makes me a deeply uncomfortable kind of sad that latches onto my brain like a leech and doesn’t let go for many hours. And I have no idea what it did to deserve that lmao

#I guess this show was a much more massive part of my life than I realized? #it's not my favourite show but I think it's. part of me now #if I'd watched it all in one hit for the first time now I'd think ''woag that was awesome'' and proceed to be normal about it #I had a hard time being normal about things I really liked as a kid and 'cause this show went on for so long and I followed it religiously- #for the ENTIRE time it was airing- #I think it became a permanent resident in my brain along with the emotional state I was in when I started watching it #when I think of Steven Universe I'm flooded with all the ways my childhood self took it way too seriously #I think about things I just MADE UP about the show through theories and implied backstory- all the deeper things that never even happened #and it gives me this unscratchable itch. this weird sense of longing #wughfgdh anyways #my ears ache from getting weirdly choked up about this lmao #just did a shortened rewatch of the whole show through watching Scoot's reaction videos #and like #bruh #the show is y'know. REALLY GOOD. But not THAT good jesus christ #nothing is THAT good #it's kinda cool that I used to have such deep emotions about literally everything but man I'm glad I'm not 13 anymore bahah #mannnnnn I really set this show up for failure by expecting it to reach this impossible unachievable level of depth #and then being kinda bummed when it didn't #it's a CARTOON Cas. a reallly fucking good one just the way it is. calm down child #anyways might draw Greg because he's the goat #steven universe #rant #(?)

Happy Trans Awareness Week!

Oh I didn't realize it was Upon Us! Happy Awareness week to all the lovely trans individuals in the world!

I'm aware of you. So very, very aware of you. For a whole entire week.

how should we celebrate this, it's crucial to know. explosives? anarchy? a cup of tea or cocoa by a warm fireplace as we trade stories and find community? knife?

#trans awareness week #quil's queries #nonsie #oh shit mentioning stories made me think of this one experience I had. woag. gonna cry (/pos) about it #I've been thinking about making a post about it because like. it was such a special queer experience I will never forget #i never stop thinking about it #i didn't even realize it at the time and just went ack! social interaction oh no! #but now I'm like....hnnngeargi my GOD that was. so something #anyway

I want u to know u were right about spamming reblog on the same post. It has unlocked something in me. I have. Never felt more free

OMG the new weapons are soooo !!!!

#And BIG RUN and FLOUNDER and another stage and some fucked up charger #now I wonder if all weapons are getting a second kit or if it’s just some and also GOD PLEASE. CARBON BURST PLEASE #ALSO I LOVE THAT THE SECOND KITS LOOK SOO MUCH MORE VISUALLY DISTINCT FOR A LOT OF THESE #cause like yeah. Stuff like the pro always had very visually distinct different kits #BUT LUNA? ROLLER? WOAG! more then just a sticker #if the tenneteck splattershot is the 2 style gun could the 3rd be styled after the first game? Much to think about

woag character design notes

[i.d.: a drawn line up of the half life vr ai characters, from left to right, gordon, dr. coomer, tommy, bubby, gman, and benrey. /end i.d.]

yeah i skipped some guys , i dont draw some of them enough to have much unique designs and some of them are a png of a dog

trust me i am just surprised as the rest of yall that i am doing hlvrai art . design notes below (very long, mind your step)

gordon:

wow this guy dont got no head

i didnt want to give gordon a face because of how unexact the person is as the fandom engages with it. is it wayne rtvs? (well as presented to an audience, yes) is it gordon freeman? (well as seen from an in game perspective, yes) is it a whole new guy entirely? (well as

i cut the confusion and took it a whole new direction: guillotine

hlvrai being treated as a very broken game is fun to me as a design perspective, so if you (the audience) are not supposed to see his face, what happens when you see it anyways? missing texture time

there are eyes drawn over because i did not have confidence in my expressions at first and then it grew on me

i think if i were to draw (and i have drawn) an actual person under the mask i would still censor the eyes because that is where the vr headset sits!!

(i do not like putting an actual flesh to gordon though)

though i really like seeing how other people interpret gordon hlvrai it is not . my gordon ? we are talking about the same guy . but this is my gordo . i made this one . this guy my guy . maybe i should draw other gordon designs

i can draw the hev suit from memory and it is also the entire reason why i can render metal confidently

i liked how people changed the lambda to read ai :] i also have no clue if i wrote the lambda correctly

(i did, i just checked)

dr coomer:

as much as i draw/drew him i find it more fun to not stick to one set design :)

so a lot of my takes on dr coomer tend to jump from idea to idea, especially from what other people are doing, though they could be fitted to the left and right designs!

the left design is mainly based off what i saw in fandom spaces

we see rounder shapes, making for a more friendly and welcoming appearance

i think of this as straying from the more professional uniform of the actual scientist models

enter swimming shorts and bright yellow socks, for some reason

so now he kind of looks like a cool science teacher :)

it might be the lab coat

the right design is mainly based off thumbnails for hlvrai itself

these use a more angular appearance

i want to push how comically buff he is because of strength he shows at times, especially since his left design seems to completely down play it as a comically not buff man who is still very strong

the shadows on right design coomer get so much more harsh and exaggerated because i have comic books on the mind :)

he really does look like a dehydrated comic book character huh

tommy:

stick bug (he gets it from his dad) (this thought process is explained at gman section)

i pushed a lot of the saturation of colours in her design because i think tommy gets to be a little silly with it

fun art story of the day! when you color, try messing with hue! you might notice you can get away with a lot as long as your values are about right

i like pushing this with white because you can get away with a lot of things reading as “off white”

old faithful for me is cool shadows with a warm transition colour to keep things visually interesting

i keep making white objects the trans flag

happy pride

tommys design looks a little like a school boy, with the tucked in button up shirt+suspenders+shorts+jacket tied around the waist . and the primary colours . but like it is really fun to dress up so brightly

i actually was strongly inspired by medieval babies if that is a weird descriptor? i wanted him to both be a middle aged man but also a young adult

do not be like tommy, who has their finger on the trigger of the gun while not even looking at where it is pointing and good god he is squeezing the trigger . top ten firearm safety of all time

bubby:

the absurd part is that i think bubby is tall . he is just between tommy and gman who are exaggeratedly lanky .

i wanted to make bubby a pointy kinda guy, so he is the only one actually wearing the lab coat proper . and the only one actually wearing dress socks but not even wearing dress shoes

i wanted to give him a novelty tie but i was running low on ideas and running high on boreds so we dont get a tie

he does have crocs though!! in attack mode!!

i do think we all kind of saw his model and collectively decided it works for him because i have honestly not seen major divergences from his model?

gman:

stick bug

i wanted to stress the more spooky and unknowable nature of him and took it in the dark souls direction of “make bigger than player character”

maked too bigger

he cannot walk through any doorways but you will have to crane your neck to look up at him

in the opposite direction of tommy, i pulled a lot of the saturation in gmans design

it feels important to make them both not fully match the rest of the slightly less broken npcs because there was so much work to make them look cool so i have to respect that

actually a lot of gmans and tommys designs are made in opposite to one another

gman has a largely stationary face and very stiff line work

while tommy is pushed to expressive as possible

thats pretty fun, way to go me

benrey:

benrey also has two designs

and in both of these i keep getting too lazy to use a reference so  the vests are super plain (forgetting the badge and black mesa logo) . i think the helmet is supposed to be darker actually .

the design ethos of benrey was “built like a brick shithouse”

a friend of mine took this cooler and interpreted it as a shield/wall/barrier as a physical (and narrative) obstacle

again the first uses fandom designs

most notably the overcast shadow (seen in video thumbnails but i never noticed it or understood why so many people did it until someone pointed it out to me)

i think hlvrai is such a great medium because it acknowledges it is a game and is able to play into that to great effect! i think the shadow is fun to imagine as solid black as a small reminder of the impossibility of the space :]

benrey is a smug cat in the body of a human . to be honest . and this is the full range of emotion i have ever drawn him with

the second was mostly because as fun as taking creative liberties are, i just really wanted to see benrey as is: the half life security guard model in all its slight wonk :]

i actually do prefer this design . it is a little more uncanny because i choose the worst translations of the model . i like it because it is a little more uncanny !

that can be said for like . every single design in this line up huh .

[grepfrutmeat]

very messy and probably a little misheard notes from liquid mercury twitter space below the cut

the return of kyler and marter twitter space, later changed to liquid mercury (and possibly something else idk)

was kinda late not sure by how much. maybe 10~ minutes

martin is still blown away by something

-kyle says he cant wait for thing to happen (evil laughing)

-its one guy (..) suit

-talked about terrified fansong, martin really dug it

-felix felix you motherfuckwr (twf the musical

-martin “who the fuck is that”

-”you gotta stop listening to me. i lie” -eva

-it is now revealed lily is charles daughter

-it was so hard to keep it a secret

-accidentally mentioned on space but nobody noticed until like one person

-he dies on her birthday …

-knowing what happens to this character,

-being able to talk about “bon” is weird.

-martin loves this spectre

-g man comparisons

-martin had 2 inspirations for spectre, one being calculated how hal 9000 (i have no mouth i must scream guy??) expresses emotions like batman riddler, (the batman)

-eva made it subtler

-I WAS FUCKING RIGHT ABOUT THE BON FELIX PARALLEL IM WINNING IN WINNING

-”perhaps what i am is not as important as what i can offer you” pinnacle of bon

-handing boozoo mask to charles?

-what if bon is from the futureeeee (okay martin.)

-most of episode 4 was made a couple weeks ago lolll

-this episode is a miracle

(missed a bunch here)

-charles lines are really good

-the scene ;) the highlight of the episode

-episode 6 at his best

-progression of susan + charles va improving

-episode 6 is a turning point, traumatic event for characters one specific one.

-episode 6 gets as close as it can be to being a nightmare

-not analog horror scary, but like a chaotic nightmare that shouldn't be happen. horror movie-esque

-everything that can go wrong goes wrong, like a real nightmare.

-arin hanson nightmare. barnacles.

-episode 6 high stakes

-”bon” - fe lix (bon says felix at some point? woag maybe) , martin says he likes how bon says felix

-eva (spectre( has a monologue in 6

-episode 6 is awe some

-maritial status. divorced

-martin talks about charles divorce

-in 1974 he's divorced, recently divorced.

-his ex wife is named emily. divorced a few months before shit happens

-if Charles didn't go missing they might have resolved their relationship

-small bit talking to Emily in one episode. charles still loves ex wife but it didn't work out.

-charles close friends with ex wife but don't work as a couple

-martin says charles feels like what jack and felix could've been.

-charles is selfless,

-felix and linda split up would be better as friends cus they're not good as a couple

-charles knows this about his relationship but felix doesn't think this about his

-martin loves charles ;3

-he's already my favorite

-eva likes charles susan dynamic (i hear u)

-theyre two sillt friends having fun!!!

-dynamic war.

-(joke) “heyt guys. in the next episode. rory appears. and kills bom” “it was all a dream” “susan marries linda and Charles raises his kid and jack finds his kids. and is found” he was hiding in a box” (trumpet sounds)

-susan and charles are better friends than jack and felix

-jack and Felix don't get along as well as real friends. business relationship.

-kyle quotes jerma lolll

-felix and jack written as people that seem friendly and social but are isolated in their own ways

-jack is only entirely honest with rosemary

-felix just doesn't

-felix tries to hide addiction from jack and

-felix sees jack as someone he'd like to be, looks up to jack, affectionate to him and envious, wants to be on his good side so doesn't say anything to him. which is why jack didn't know.

-sophie jophie and jenny jophie joke…

-theyd rock paper scissors over last names

-jenny is better than sophie at rock paper scissors. lettersons.

-sophie would change to sophie Letterson like 100%

-highlight of the month was liking jelix art and everybody noticed …

-”jelix sloppy making out” “DONT SPOIL SIX” (joke)

-joke about charles looking horrified cus jelix making out in felix office lmao

-boozoos voice slightly tiny tim-ish COOL

qna part

-spectre is freakishly tall, skinny michael meyers

-spectres voice changes a lot, sometimes silly, depends on what he's saying/who he's talking to.

-spectre wont hide his motivation but he won't reveal it outright, he won't sit down and explain what he's doing, he’ll just do it.

-chris appears in photos, isn't really mentioned. Chris is someone who knows how to turn a situation in his favor, go-getter. has interesting dynamics with main characters later in series

-kyle can't wait for people to see what happens with Chris

-long way to go to show it, but chris apparently has a really cool design later on (1982)

-cant wait for people to see his role in 1982 . martin can't say why

-no correct understanding of chris but some people have very different expectations of who he is.

-chris is a silly-serious blend, similar to charles, less naive

-all they can say

-charles fact: something really fun about charles, he will always put his kid first more than anything. he brings her to work a lot (not gonna see this in series tho) everyone would play with her. dress up as pirates. :)

-felix would tell lily santa doesn't exist. LOLLL

-cant say something spoiler…

-G ROUND BREAKING REVALATION: FOR CONTEXT. Brian stells was the first human character to speak in twf. back in 2020. people would ship brian stells and sophie walten. but it was wrong angle. because yesterday. came to the realization. that brian would be into middle aged single mothers (technically rosemary…)

-brian would try to hit on rosemary??? and jack would grab his shotgun and shoot at him. okay martin. jack is a good shooter ??

-canon brian is jesse pinkman

-chris is more season 4-5 jesse pinkman.

(missed a lot)

-showstopper lore bon and banny friends but like. only cus bon wants to save face

-cybertelly would be the showstoppers lawyer

-felix fursona with glasses and suits (kyle says bon is just like felix)

-sha js rose’s fursona. rosemary is a furry.

-4,5,6

-linda only talked to susan cus they were good friends but not rosemary. linda would've told susan she was leaving.

-felix scene on the river was hardest to animate cus it was in a lighter place, but with felix its lit up middle of day

-potential actual showstopper show ?? 11 minute episodes

-rosemarys favorite character was sha. but billy if not sha, rosemary loves clowns

-ed molly fun fact: they liked playing pong. martin thinks ed would be mischievous and do pranks, between sophie ed and molly he'd be the most rebellious. molly would be more like “ed you cant blow up the school that's not right”

-molly was very behaved. best behaved walten child.

-rosemarys sister laura in season 2. rosemary doesn't like her family and doesn't really speak to her mom or sister much.

-jacks favorite drink is ramasote or wine, rosemary likes champagne, sophie likes mojito “i think drink does not just mean alcohol”

-mollys is pepsi. eds is liquid mercury. jacks favorite drink black coffee or rumcoke. jack would have a gallon of rootbeer.

woag guess who is updating their artfight 💪 i wanted to have a go imitating the art style and i think it turned out pretty good!!

text in image reproduced under the cut with additional info

image text id: agustín "asuka" guerrero y mercado. 19. he/him.

what the hell is a breathing style

not even an actual slayer???

fights primarily with his bolo knife - sword is just for decapitation

haori belonged to deceased relatives

rips his jacket open when fighting because he thinks the cross shocks the demons. this is not why this technique works

took the opportunity to start presenting male when he fled to japan

family passed down stories of demons but didn't really believe them

♪ dragula - rob zombie

end image text id.

His Japanese ancestors fled to the Philippines to escape Christian persecution. Now, as the US colonises the Philippines, Asuka is encouraged to escape to Japan. He finds his relatives only as they are being killed by a demon, and the slayer fighting the demon is at death's door. While he is able to defeat the demon, he is unable to save the slayer. He dons their uniform and their sword and sets out to find out more about demons and how to kill them. Has absolutely no idea what the Corps are and will eventually get in trouble for 'impersonation', but until then will go on his merry way slicing and dicing.

i like to think maybe hes made to Actually go thru final selection once people figure out that hes not actually a slayer and like. obviously he gets thru it. gets his own sword (old one goes back to the family of the deceased slayer) but still fights mainly with the bolo. will he ever learn a breathing style??? who knows.......

hes kind of dumb. not really the most empathetic or sensitive but he means well

#art #ocs #kny oc #i couldnt be fucking bothered writing out the whole thing by hand so i did the. diy font thing LMAO #anyway. sorry that i made an oc just to put a catholic in there. lmao #i was drawing a different kny oc and was like wow that was fun lets do another one. so i just started drawing and ended up with this #and dragula just. happened to be what i was listening to LMAO i was also watching blade

what are your top 5 fics by kudos?

all this, and love too — spy x family — a whopping 4,379 kudos (??? still don't understand how)

lesterlicious — trials of apollo — 980 kudos (okay woag did not realize the numbers were that big now)

a fine bird nests wisely — hsr, jingfu — 384 kudos (one of my personal favorites dont read the others here just read my jingfu <3)

a chat in disneyland — miraculous ladybug — 337 kudos

Enough — miraculous ladybug — 327 kudos

do you respond to comments?

yes of course!! im just really bad at keeping up but i read and treasure each comment i promise 🥹

what is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

i have an unfinished jingfu fic (propaganda movement chinoy au) where there will be major character death! im really looking forward to finishing that one

as for published works, my friend sent me death threats when i posted redder than february flowers (hsr/jingfu), so I'll answer with that :3

what's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

i think it's gotta be all the stars crowd around the moon <3 just softness and love and warmth <3

do you get hate on fics?

i was about to say i thankfully dont but then i suddenly remembered that single comment i got on a fine bird nests wisely KNCNDVSHAHS let me just grab it for your viewing:

THIS WAS SO FUNNY BECAUSE ON THAT AO3 I HAVE A FIC WHERE CHARACTER A TORTURES CHARACTER B AT THE BEHEST OF SOMEONE ELSE, AND THEN PROCEEDS TO MURDER INNOCENT SUBORDINATES AGAINST CHARACTER B'S WISHES TO ENSURE THERE ARE NO WITNESSES. AND ANON CHOSE TO COMMENT ON PURE BIRD FU XUAN SILLINESS 😭😭😭😭😭

do you write smut? if so, what kind?

i do! i have! there's one published (among our other torments not the least) which is wriolyney hate/desk sex, and there's an arlefuri one in my wips which will remain a secret until i finish writing it hehehe cant go spoiling the content yk

do you write crossovers? what's the craziest one you've written?

i dont think i have :0 but i like to transfer concepts into another media, like for example yelone (yelan/pantalone) in a death in the nile plot, or crimson peak !!

have you ever had a fic stolen?

nope, or at least not to my knowledge LOL pls dont do it though

have you ever had a fic translated?

nope! i once wrote just dialogue for a liubai fic in my terrible chinese, tho, and then i translated it into english and added description and everythig!! here it is with the translation

have you ever co-written a fic before?

yes!! i dont think im cut out for it tho because im very bad at powering thru wips. i cant turn my writing on and off like a spigot :(

what are your writing strengths?

i genuinely don't know anymore bc my writing changes sm all the time. uhhh. i know how to perfectly format dialogue tags?

what are your writing weaknesses?

i hate starting things i hate too much description,, im also prone to really really long sentences, which i try to cut in half when editing, but sometimes im too tired to edit so...

thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

girl im filipino wdyt HAHA

serious answer: absolutely. just make sure your target audience will be able to comprehend ur meaning. do this by either making a translation easily accessible without extra steps, or by making a translation obsolete by clarifying the meaning within the text!

or if you're writing, say, maria clara at ibarra fic, just write in taglish bc ur readers are almost all gonna be filipinos anyways LOL

first fandom you wrote for?

miraculous 😞😞😞 ladybug 😞😞😞😞😞 i wrote a chloe fic for an english assignment it was really bad but it was my first real story ever HAHA

favorite fic you've written?

VERY HARD especially since some of them aren't even published yet. but i will have to go with, again, redder than february flowers <3

tagging: @queer-cosette @theladyfae @hanaasbananas uhh anyone else who sees this and is a writer!!!! thank you for reading til the end LOL

THEY POSTJAILED MY GAY ASS

but woag okay tell me everything? one thing that gets me out of Find Stuff Mode™ is explaining it all to someone so tell me what you've found and maybe getting it out of your system will help u focus on the homework :p

NOOOOO TUMBLR FREE MY MAN THIS IS SO NOT THE TIME CANT YOU SEE IM SUFFERING I NEE MY EMOTIONAL SUPPORT MUTUAL-

okay but literally explaining it feels so stupid bc its like. like in my head its a cool concept but on paper it feels dumb?? idk but like, originally this started bc i was trying to see if there was an archive of old crankthatfrank videos out there, which in turn got me thinking about that Era of like. 2010s emo trinity bandom tumblr yk? bc while i came in very much at the tail end of that era, i still experienced a lot of it firsthand and its kind of The Thing that got me really into music and i though it'd be interesting to look back on now that im considerably more mature

and now not im sitting here looking at this vague outline ig for this hypothetical video, and so im thinking it'll start off exploring why and how the fandom blew up at the time. like where the term came from, why it was specifically those bands and how tumblr and youtube in particular kinda helped to foster the community. and then id wanna talk about the community itself and the way fans interacted with the bands, common jokes/memes, popular figures/youtubers, shit like that which would lead to the discussion of all the horrible shit going on at the time that i (for a variety of reasons) just didnt see when i was in the community at the time

but anyways i have a collection of links now to a bunch of like. Iconic bandom tumblr posts (i spent at least an hour trying to find the post where the emo trinity term was coined and then verifying that there werent any earlier uses of it and shit) AND i made a youtube playlist of every single crankthatfrank i could find bc thats what started this mess and bc his content is like. THE prime example of everything i wanna talk about with this. his videos perfectly encapsulate the era imo yk? i also have a growing list of articles/videos to check out focusing on the bands' growing popularity and audiences and shit, and i have a list of other youtubers who seemed to be popular with the scene that i didnt personally watch but whose names i remember hearing at the time

#asks #needless to say there is absolutely No Reason for me to be doing or have done any of this #but uh. at the very least ig im having fun?? #but jesus christ i have got to do m fucking homework soon- #this is all just so fucking interesting to me tho bc like. i was there for the end of it but looking at it in its prime is just.... #ugh idk its just fascinating to me. especially how the birth and death of the era sort of coincides with mcr's breakup and reunion #and the fact that it takes place over this largely period of rapid transition in internet history which is a whole topic in and of itself #that fucking fascinates me to no end

Woag, new oc? Here's Magik, designed from @awholeclxwn 's Sans Oc randomizer/challenge (thingy? Not sure what to call it actually lol-).

These were what I recieved from the randomizer (and I know extra arms was a second "Extra" option but I got inspired 😅)

I like to think his lore follows the lines of a Pre-game Sans who works in the lab getting his grubby paws on some Determination. Much like Flowey/HyperGod of Death, he just got a lil stronger and a bit more rainbow-y. In the aftermath, he decided to roll with it and took up the role of Mad Scientist after Gaster got obliterated, and now he likes to run around the Lab and Core, talking to Alphys and Mettaton about his crazy ideas and new inventions.

No other thoughts, just wanted to do a silly render!

#utmv #oc #utmv sans #utmv art #spot!drawn #Magik #not to be confused with Madjik (<- the fun wizard from the Core :3) #I wanted to give his glasses extra lenses for his extra eyes lol #he's just a silly lil guy #I feel like he'd have one of those high-pitched little cackles for a laugh that he'd unleash at pretty much anytime #also he loves the Amalgams and has no fear (or guilt) towards them like Alphys might #one last observation: #I have two styles-> Twink and Dad-Bod #idk why but it's a vibe lol

So does anyone watch genocide hungry maniacs make memes and cutesy little jokes and horrible sketch comedy about the fact that they're complicit in the indiscriminate murder of children and "woke westerners" are somehow angry at that for some reason and legitimately want to cry?

Like does anyone else have a social media feed that rapidly swings back and forth between videos of the actual corpses of toddlers who had so much beautiful experiences ahead of them and Zionist wokescolding about how it's actually way more complex than you think and it just fills you with so much actual dread

Has anyone else seen a tweet of a man weeping while holding a dead child and then a separate tweet of someone having screenshot it and drawn on it to make said child look like a ventriloquist dummy, the joke of course being "woag the Palestinians are using this innocent person we killed as a puppet to dupe people into their agenda that we are murdering innocent people "

Or like does anyone see videos of mothers and fathers and grandparents losing husbands and wives and children and parents and having to just carry on because they don't have time to breathe because the city around them continues to crash down and make more widows and orphans and then immediately after it's a post of a Zionist who was scared because there's a war going on but still had time for brunch and like it drives you insane because normal people that you've known for a while think that this is a "we'll it's bad for both sides" issue

And does anyone else ever wonder if the whole recurring joke that the one complex topic you should never bring up is Israel and Palestine that has appeared in countless movies and tv shows was kinda force fed to us as a joke so people would assume complexity when there is none

Anyone else not feeling too hot right now?

Okay so I may have gone overboard………

But also I love these guys and cannot be stopped!! Theres a lot going on, so close-ups and transcripts under the cut :]

You know the drill by now, reblogs help me likes do not, and I’ll love you forever if you put tags on the rb <3

Drew most of these while watching the Oni trilogy, and a bit during s11/s12 if that means anything. Three notes about the piece before we get to the transcript/description:

1. I recently encountered the Lloyd-with-prosthetic-arm headcanon and had to draw it!

2. The way Kai is animated in the oni trilogy makes it look like he’s chewing the inside of his cheek whenever he’s thinking. Which is beyond charming, hence, the guy!

3. I think I need to say that none of this is intended to be ship art, however I have no qualms with you if you wish to interpret it that way!

Okay so, now that that’s out of the way, Transcript for my writing below:

Image 1, top left corner, is a note in blue that just says “note to self: use blue for water, not gray <3”. There is also a note to the top right corner of the image that has a cartoon figure saying “woag!” And the exclamation “ZAP!” By a lightning bolt.

Image 2, top right corner, has a memo in black and highlighted in orange, that says “*windows startup noise*” with an arrow pointing to a doodle of Kai. There is also a few colored pencil swatches with names below that same doodle.

Image 3, bottom left corner, has no text except for color names next to colored pencil swatches.

Image 4, bottom right corner, has a text bubble in red, pointing to a doodle of Cole who is holding a mug with difficult-to-read text. The bubble conveys that “His mug says ‘don’t talk to me until I’ve eaten this entire mug’”. There is also a doodle of Lloyd to the right, who looks sheepish and is saying (in light green) “thanks for the upgrade!” The response, in teal which indicates it is Nya speaking, comes in two speech bubbles. The top says “no problem!” The bottom says “just, please, stop wrecking them…”
