Late night sad hours because of all the people I used to interact with who haven't been active in months or even years

#i hope they're all doing okay #the first few months after i joined the community seem so distant #so i'm just melancholic #and as stupid as it is i can't help but wonder if i could've done something #interacted more #read their stories #made them feel more welcome #i dunno #marti talks

torn between wanting to make all my ocs Specialest Little Guys and overpowered VS. the fact I just finished watching all three extended editions of Lord of the Rings and am deeply moved by the struggles and worth of the common man

#ramblings #the end of Return of the King gave me many OC Thoughts and now you're going to hear them #might veto the whole 'Funney Big Weapon Guy is also psychic' thing for Sid Sibyl #won't fully un-magic him just cuz i made it a common thing in the setting but like. i might still nerf him a little in that aspect #his whole schtick is that he is aggressively Just A Guy #he's very persistent. won't come back from a job until he found the last crate that fell off the merchant's wagon or whatever #very good at sword-fighting. cuz he trains and spars a lot and eats like a furnace to keep up his strength #his 'high pain tolerance' is something im self-inserting where i won't notice injuries until later. a bit oblivious. just keeps on truckin #an altogether formidable combo but. he is so much Just A Guy #no super strength no immunities no super-charged magic. not even a cursed weapon to give him a leg up #he finally visits his home again and it's confusing why it's not the same as he remembers it-#-when he should have much more in common with old neighbors and vendors at the market than with his cosmically superpowered friends #old sights and sounds and some friends that give him a warm welcome-back but... it's not the same. it's not home. not anymore #from the moment he chose his path he could never go back home #and I feel like the tragedy of that would be undercut if i gave him something like future-vision or a magical sword

I never shown this to anyone else except for those close to me but here's a thing I did for my first time drawing all the neighbors in WH (Welcome Home) in my comfort art style. This is one of my favorites that helped me be more comfortable with WH itself. (And to practice on how to draw them in general.)

I just started on my first zine a few days ago! I wanted to make it physically but found I was lacking in materials I wanted to use so I’ve been making it digitally and collage like and I must say, I’m having such a good time making it. However, sometimes I worry im not making it right. And I know there’s no right or wrong way to make a zine but for whatever reason I feel like mine is wrong. I feel like mine doesn’t have enough drawings or sentences or something and I think part of me feels kinda like a cheat for doing it online as I’m not very good at drawing etc. I was wondering if you’ve ever felt doubt in your zines and how you overcame that or deal with it. Zine making is a very new hobby for me but I think I want it to stick around, I just worry I’ll run out of things or inspiration for making them like I’m not creative enough 😞 I’m sorry for just coming in here and dumping all this on you. I appreciate you taking the time to read it and whatever answer you may give ❤️

sorry for taking a hot minute to get to this! i know i only addressed physical zines, but i don't think digital ones are any less or a cheat at all. it's just another way of making them. there are lots of people who do it, and we did that in college! especially in your case where you're lacking in materials, i'd say that you're making good use of what you can :]

honestly i am nearly always doubting my zines in one way or another, but i just... kind of ignore it because i know that i feel worse if i don't make something. doing zinetober helped me with this because i didn't have to like what i made, it just had to exist. but also, there are some zines that i really didn't like at the time that i started to appreciate after like, a week. it's the fresh eyes. i know ignoring it is easier said than done, so i suppose it's more about trying to reframe it: you're learning what works and what doesn't, what you can experiment with next, etc. and you can always try again if you want.

as for running out of inspiration/not feeling creative enough... yeah, they don't call it the creative cycle for nothing! seek out sources of inspiration. save the art you like in a folder. take pictures of things that catch your eye. watch things. read things. try something an artist has done. revisit things you've made before and make them again. you can do that as many times as you want. you just have to push through it, i promise you won't be stuck there forever!

#i'm glad that zinemaking has been fun for you though! i wish you the best with it :]#if you'd ever like to share them you're welcome to - i think you can submit anonymously!#the creative cycle is definitely....... Something. i am in my 'get me out of here' part of the cycle #the way that i could literally feel my ex-tutor in my head while writing this LOL.. i guess she made more sense than i realised at the time #sorry i got a bit wordy. apparently i love typing words #anonymous #ask #zine talk

Did this instead of drawing like i should be doing, the most needlessly complicated wh dynamics chart

#welcome home #i changed the cant stand color cuz it was too close to the partners color and made it more confusing #barnaby's indifference for eddie isnt really that but it was the closest djsv #barnaby is protective of wally so while he and eddie are friends barns is very break his heart and i break your bones at eddie #he also kinda does and kinda doesnt have feelings for poppy #they are besties first and foremost but hes like yeah shes pretty and i would entertain the idea of being with her if she was interested in #men but shes not so its whatever #he is perfectly okay with just being besties #oh also i was taking cant stand more like the way you cant stand a younger sibling but still love them #rather than like Actually cant atand

i've been staying w my bestie and she lives w her sister + sister's partner so while she's been super busy and not here much i've felt like . ah i don't want to impose on them a lot , so i've just been trying to help keep the apt clean and bring home things they like . but they've been so kind like her sister offered me her car to use so i could go to the grocery store i prefer, and the place they ordered dinner from tonight accidentally sent them 2 of their order so they put the extras in a bag and wrote "erin :)" on it and i litrally almost cried abt it lol

#like it's not like i didn't know them before bc i've stayed here for long trips but usually my bestie would also be here more #and i knew she was gonna be busy so i expected i'd feel a bit lonely esp at first #so the other 2 just being so kind and welcoming is like . they so don't have to it's so sweet ... i've noticed too that they've been like #idk i'm a 'do all the dishes in the sink' girl if i'm doing mine anyways and so they have been mindful not to leave theirs in there #i couldnt have made this move without them all being willing to just let me be here in the interim i just feel rly grateful #:''')

Normal peppino: Oh, I-a really don't want to-a fight, I have a business to-a run!

Pony peppino:

KILL MAIM BURN

LMAO

to be fair though i think both of them are both of these. idealy they don't want to fight people because they have a business to run, but push come to shove, if their business is threatened they WILL kill for it

in this essay this will serve as the basis as for why pony peppino absolutely despises the flim flam brothers

#ask #text #twogaydemons #looks left looks right #welcome to the tags i'm gonna ramble a little #i feel like if PT happened in MLP it would generally be the same for the most part #like i can imagine a fuckin tower made of pizza in the MLP universe you can't tell me that wouldn't happen #nobody really knows how the tower got there in both universes BUT i can see it being magic either way #magic in the human world and magic in the pony world #to elaborate though on my flim flam brother hate claim #most ponies are gullible as shit when it comes to those brothers right #i feel like there's some ponies and creatures who can spot a scam and business scheme from a mile away #peppino is one of those #granted the brothers now have like a casino so they're doing just fine thanks to capitalism but #i can still see them trying other schemes to rake in more cash and fame #but the moment they try anything pizza related peppino is going for the throat #he DESPISES them they're everything he hates #it's like how applejack hates them because they're not authentic and genuine with their practice #when they made cider for example it was more efficient but it wasn't genuine. it was just business #when the cider shit happened in ponyville i don't doubt some rumors and talks spread about it around equestria #and i can imagine him overhearing and as such just. keeping an eye on them. in case they try to go for him #that's why i think he'd beat the shit out of them the MOMENT he sees a perfect chance #ONLY IF THEY TRY ANYTHING THOUGH. if they leave him alone he'll leave them alone

Heyyy! I found your blog like 2 months ago and when I tell you I’m in love. I’ve been reading fics for like 8+ years and you’re my favorite fic writer (especially for Aki ❤️‍🔥🫶🏾‼️) You’re so skilled at painting scenes and expressing emotions. You make me feel like I’m fully immersed in your writing. Your writing is a world of its own. It moves my emotions so profoundly. It’s clear and vivid and warm and loving.

When I first read your fics, I couldn’t put my finger on exactly what made them so special to me. But when I explored your blog, I figured it out! I think it’s because you write from a place of genuine love (especially for Aki skskskfj). And that’s felt all throughout your writing.

I love the coziness y’all got going on here. Everybody here is just so comfortable voicing all their thoughts and feelings. It feels like home over here. I wanna join y’all. This is your reminder that your writing always touches my heart and soul 💫☁️

ahem…. 🧌 this is a very extra introduction I’m sorry in advance. Take this as a token of my apology

I almost teared up when I first read your ask this morning... I can't express how grateful I am, thank you so so much for saying that. I'm really so happy you enjoy my fics. my heart feels warm knowing you think so highly of my writing... gaaaahhhh I'm just so appreciative I will actually burst like a big bubble

#saving your words to put them in a heart shape locket #it truly means the world to me #you make me feel so special hahaha #I really hope you'll keep enjoying my work!! I want to improve my writing even more 💪#YOU CAN JOIN THE AKI CULT!!! COME COME #unrelated but that last emoji you used made me giggle so much I've never seen that before 😭#thank you a thousand times over for your support!!!#you've really made my whole day maybe even the rest of my week #giving you the warmest hug ever right now #welcome to topknotville #ask mags

Alright here's my full (possibly hot) take on redesigning Hazbin Hotel characters and making a video showcasing those redesigns while you criticize the official designs.

First and foremost, you are redesigning someone else's OCs. Hazbin Hotel is, in essence, a passion project for Viv. How she talks about it makes that incredibly clear to me. The only difference between Hazbin Hotel and, for example, the story I'm developing surrounding some of my D&D OCs is that Hazbin Hotel got picked up by a streaming service and is significantly more popular than most passsion projects get.

Personally if someone wanted to redesign my D&D OCs, I wouldn't mind it, in fact I'd probably think it was really cool that someone would want to redesign one of my OCs to be closer to their tastes in terms of what they like to draw. I would, however, be made incredibly uncomfortable if someone made a video redesigning them where they also pointed out everything they thought was wrong with the designs. I didn't design these specific D&D characters to be 1-to-1 accurate to their classes in D&D or to look professionally designed. I designed them how I wanted them to look for the story I'm telling because I don't plan to ever play them in a campaign. The main character Avlan is a paladin, and I can acknowledge that his design might not look exactly like a paladin. One of the tabaxi in the story (Ice) is a bard and the other (Spark) is a ranger, and I acknowledge that their classes might not come across well in their designs. The single tiefling I've designed for this story (Tragedy) is a cleric but might not come off as one in their design. But I specifically designed them to be easy for me to draw because I want to be able to tell this story through my art. Having someone say "oh, Avlan's armor isn't paladin enough!" or "Avlan's fur colors and patterns should be closer to a wild rabbit's because harengon shouldn't be based on domestic rabbit colors!" would fucking hurt (especially because I'm so attached to Avlan, but it would hurt just as much if similar comments were made about Ice, Spark, or Tragedy). I am so passionate about these characters and being told their designs are bad or wrong in some way would be like a stab in the heart, and it would still feel like a stab in the heart if this story ever got a massive fandom behind it. Giving Avlan more complex armor because you think it'd look cool or just want to see what it'd look like? Sure, if I could draw more complex armor I'd give him more complex armor too. Giving him more complex armor but also shitting on the armor I decide to draw him with? My motivation to draw him in his armor, potentially draw him period, would be dead for WEEKS.

Why is it suddenly okay just because someone's passion project was picked up by Amazon Prime? Why is it suddenly okay to be "fixing" someone's character designs just because the project has a much bigger budget than most artists get and is on a popular streaming service? It's not. I don't care if you're a professional character designer, or think a specific character would look better with certain traits, or just don't like the character designs.

Hazbin Hotel is still Vivienne Medrano's passion project, and redesigning her characters and making videos talking about everything you think is "wrong" with them is, honestly, disgusting. You can make videos explaining your choices in your redesigns without putting down the designs that already exist, whether you like them or not. Me thinking Lucifer looks better with his tail not restricted to his full demon form doesn't suddenly mean I don't like his official design, because I fucking love it. If you wouldn't do it to an artist whose passion project is just a webcomic here on Tumblr, don't fucking do it to an artist whose passion project got picked up for a cartoon by a big streaming service (or any company for that matter).

#hazbin hotel #vent #kinda #i just think it's a weird double standard #'yeah don't fix people's art! unless theyre working on a project that was picked up by a big company then it's fine to fix their art'#like???#why is that a mentality that exists?? they're still viv's characters #and you can still redesign them without shitting on the official designs #pretty much all of my redesign notes for hazbin hotel are 'how can i make this character easier and more fun for me to draw'#because i specialize in furry art. i don't usually draw humanoids lol #so giving vox some shark traits for example or making adam more birdlike would make them more fun for me to draw #why can't we redesign them based on that without saying 'i think it's weird that this decision was made for this character's design'#they're still viv's characters. they're still her designs. stop pointing out everything you think is wrong with them for fucks sake #we don't need to talk about hazbin's character designs. we don't need to 'fix' them #just say they aren't for you and move on. there's literally nothing inherently wrong with them #i also feel like not enough people actually do research into the historical contexts of some characters #and i think it'd be really fuckin cool to see people redesign characters more based on headcanons based on that than anything #look into how the mafia operated in new york in the early/mid 1900s for angel. look into radio hosts in the 1920s for alastor.#look into las vegas culture during husk's lifetime for husk. look into the culture surrounding tv hosts in the 1950s for vox.#LOOK INTO THE CULTURE OF THE ELIZABETHAN ERA FOR ZESTIAL.#(i just presented zestial ideas to anyone who wants them on a silver platter. you're welcome)#(also new headcanon that zestial was friends with shakespeare in life because why the fuck not)#(when the tags get wildly out of hand)

Dreamwalkers AU

Sketches and a lil' more infos

What happened ?

This was a normal timeline before Nyxie came in... See, Nyxie is not part of the Welcome Home world, she came from elsewhere. She was made by an unknown creator to learn about and interact with the neighbours... When she first came, Home wasn't really happy, but for some reason allowed her presence.

All was good for a while, Nyxie would play with the neighbours during the day, and carry out her dreamwalking duties at night.

But one day, at a slumber party, somehow Wally and Julie got hold of Nyxie's power, and found themselves in the dream realm. Chaos ensued, but Nyxie managed to bring them back almost intact...

And they thought all was good, it was just a weird dream adventure.

But they were quite wrong. Due to what happened, it seemed that some of Nyxie's magic slipped through Julie and Wally, making them dreamwalkers as well

Now, Nyxie has to watch over them as they learn to navigate the dream realm...

That's the basic synopsis of the AU

I will make short stories and mini comics about their nightly adventures, there's not much of an overarching story

There's gonna be a lot of dimensions hopping for the three too, so I can have them interact with other AUs :3

Feel free if you have any questions !

Enjoy some sketches of the sillies ~
