Golden Fleece

#my art #cotl #cotl lamb #blood #it was really fun to ponder this one #cause in the game sprite the body on the fleece has the scale-like texture but the hem is sharp like the standard fleece #i felt a 2 tiered piece would work nicely to show both of these contrasting elements #the sprite always makes me think of gold scale mail but i wanted to avoid it looking explicitly like armor #since the fleece gives you stacking atk damage in exchange of taking 2x damage when hit #although tbqh gold armor would be fucking pointless anyways. gold is a very soft metal. which may have been the point but w/e #instead i wanted the shapes to be more reminiscent of wool since like. yknow. the golden fleece #and i wanted it to speak of luxury and power but be rather impractical for movement or protection #i just wanted to do an axe for funsies and by wonderful coincidence remembered the godly axe was gold :] #anyways this pose is brought to you by my stupid ass who spun too hard with my upper body when swinging a bat and felt cool for 1 second #before totally unbalancing myself and falling #the instant after this image lambo eats shit. rest in peace

How do the girls get along

Pretty great actually!

Jenny and Kim are very good/close friends, since they met relatively early compared to others (they actually met each other first out of everyone, then others at one point and another) and had a shared adventure sometime after the ends of their respective shows (wink wonk).

But, their first meeting was not actually very um, positive. There was some conflict, but after it was resolved both of them gained a very solid friend for life!

Jenny, was glad to meet someone else (beside Brad) who treated her like a person/normal teenager (instead of an 8th wonder of the world or a freaky robot) and not to mention she got a fellow superheroine girl friend! After Misty, she kind of missed having someone like that to kick butt with (considering that like, 70% of her friends are dudes) or just hang out.

Kim was fascinated by Jenny, not because she is a robot (tho she does think its pretty cool) but because it kind of gave her a contrast to her own life in a weird way? Like, Kim was a normal teenager who got into superheroing on accident and just went with it, while Jenny was created with a goal of being Earth's defender but rebeled to have some sort of normal life. And now they both live those weird semi-normal lives, that led them to meeting each other.

Jun is around 5-6 years their junior and while they met each other much later on, when Jun was a little older (like not 11-12 age of the show), she still kind of looked up to them and both Jenny and Kim felt an instant kinship with the girl.

Before she met Jenny and Kim, Jun only knew a couple other guys as fellow heroes/magical protectors (guess who ;D lol), and while she had plenty of female role models (Ama/Jasmine being the most prominent) and friends, she kind of enjoyed meeting some cool older superheroines to bond with! It also helped that despite the age difference, both Jenny and Kim never looked down at her when it came to superheroing/fighting, but respected her abilities and expertise (considering that Jun was practically an apprentice to her Ama since at least 8-9ish of age, when her powers first awakened, she has a lot of experience).

They both are kind of like cool older cousins to her, who travel a lot for their work and come visit to hang out often and tell/share stories about their adventures. Their and her lines of work while similar, also run in completely different circles (human/interplanetary vs magical/supernatural), so its always a treat to hear about the things they do.

(And yes sometimes she feels jealous about the fact that both of them get to travel all over the world, and despite the developments, more often than not she has to stay town locked and limit her excursions to magical realms.)

Silly thing, but Jun absolutely adores Jenny, for one simple fact that she can travel to space just like that (she and Danny, fellow astronaut/space fans, share that, despite the fact that Danny kinda can travel to space just like that too.)

#que? #hom au #hom au q&a #juniper lee #jenny xj9 #kim possible #fun fact: both jenny and jun have beef with some other person in their friend group while Kim doesn't #Kim is very likable ;3 and also sensible even if she is sometimes overly competitive and a perfectionist lol #both Jun and Jenny can get overly passionate and thus they have a recurring beef/argument/tension with their respective opponent (?) #Jenny and Kim are that sort of friendship that one makes in a camp and you exchange numbers/e-mails and you dont see each other for months #but message almost every day and like know a lot about each others lives and when you meet again u like instantly hug and everythng is cool #also their families (some members at least) are sort of? friends now too. i will elaborate on that later ;3 #still answering homauQ in broad strokes because i just cant decide on the details lol #i promise im answering asks TToTT i was just eyebrows deep in the comic itself to actually answer properly #i have like several in drafts and some in askbox and also i think i lost a few when i was cleaning my other askboxes so um like sorry #if i never answer those they are now forever lost in tumblr graveyard

You wanna send snail mail, but you don't feel like you have the time and energy for a whole long term pen pal relationship.

May I suggest postcard exchanges! Here's a couple.

Postcrossing - you get assigned a random address, send a postcard. Then once it's received, someone else gets your address.

Postcard United - Same as Postcrossing, just a different site

PostFun - same as the above, but it's an app on your phone

Now, if you wanna have a little more long term relationship with someone via snail mail, but you don't feel like you have the energy to write big long letters, or spend time on mail art (y'all who do mail art, it's gorgeous, I'm exhausted just watching y'all), what you're looking for is a Postcard Pal. It's a penpal you agree to send postcards to! You are constrained by the writing section of the card! Much more condensed! Where would you find such a person? Here's a couple of places.

The Letter Exchange - the print zine mailed quarterly has a category for postcards. Bonus - it's a letter forwarding service so you decide when you give your postcard pal your address.

Postcrossing Forums - you will need to sign up to get access, there is a Penpal forum.

r/penpals and r/penpalsover30 - Does what it says on the tin, but you do have to sort through people who want emailpals as well.

Martha Wells and John Scalzi at Joseph-Beth Booksellers!!

Y’all GUESS WHO I GOT TO SEE!!! In real life!! With my own two eyeballs!!!

It was an absolutely delightful chat (I took two pages of notes! scribbled in All My Margins!), very cozy, AND neither of them had signing limits! I love hearing authors talk about their Authorial Woes and Process Quirks, because it’s always hugely validating and just neat to hear.

#books #martha wells #john scalzi #murderbot #the murderbot diaries #all systems red #network effect #the kaiju preservation society #book signing #book photography #my photography #full disclosure i did purchase kaiju while i was there because i didn't own any of his books #but i had read locked in and liked it and kaiju looked most up my alley of what was on his table!! #AAAAND I DELIVERED MY FAN MAIL TO MARTHA!!!! #so far i have only had success with physically handing authors fan mail as delivery--i've tried to email/mail/web form a few others but-- #--those always bounce back #so i've now handed both martha wells and ve schwab physical fan mail in exchange for getting books signed XD #they were both very funny and very kind and i am very awkward lol #also the difference in signature and personality is hilarious to me #i strive to have something bold like scalzi #i suspect i'll end up more like wells XD #but yeah i want to transfer some of the writerly percolations to my bitch journal for driscoll purposes going forward it was. seriously.-- #--so validating and relieving to hear <3 #witch king #the cloud roads

Need to write or draw evil jay idea rn

#in case this doesnt happen the story is #jay in his leaked design captures zane and arin and lures the ninja to an abandoned base under his control #hold arin hostage in exchange for lloyd #lloyd willingly gets captured so arin can escape and jay reveals himself to be a double agent and is taking them both to the administration- #not to ras or cinder #he captures zane cause he escaped from the mail room in s1 #manager jay #jay ninjago #dragons rising #dragons rising s2 #ninjago #also lloyd and zane figure out its jay (he never took off his mask)

now that there is something going on between them, hellstorm is now bombarded daily by shitty, cheesy aviation pick up lines-

‘i thought i was lost until my radar pointed in your direction’

‘didn’t know angels could be found at this altitude’

and sometimes when he’s tired, pilot!reader will catch himself sending messages such as ‘will you be my pilot? i’ll let you pull my stick’

Hellstorm, writing letters to Stone (don't ask me how they got each other's mailing addresses): Stone, are cheesy pick-up lines a normal thing to do when dating? Do I say cheesy pick-up lines back?

Stone, writing back a week later: Why do you think I know what dating is like?

Anyways, I think Hellstorm would try his best to give you cheesy, romantic pick-up lines back. In his defense, he's only had one-night stands so dating is new to him. But at least he's giving back the same energy you are, right?

SWAG DO YOU LIKE CRABS??? DO YOU WANT CRAB PHOTOS?? I HAVE SOME. for context I very much like crabs.

YES ?!???!??? I FUCKING LOVE CRABS

take this deep sea giant isopod gif as payment for some crabs,,,, and the fun fact that just like pillpugs/woodlice/rolypoly's they can curl up into a little ball and use their shell for protection! also (and this ones REALLY neat) they're an example of deep sea gigantism!!!!! gigantism in sea animals isn't all that common considering it mainly occurs outside of shallow waters and usually it's part of an outlier species instead of a big one like this >:DDD the same condition can typically occur in almost all of the surrounding waters of antarctica, where scientists are theorizing that the lack of shallow water and the freezing extreme temperatures is what causes the genetic condition to happen in so many species!! actually that's where it's caused the most :] so it's really strange to see something like this outside of those waters and instead in the deep dark of the ocean under very similarly strange conditions :DDD

now pay up. hand over the fucking crabs slash threat

#i make yet anothet post just for me 👍 #we have mail :] #fun fact for some crabs i feel is an equal exchange ^_^ also i just love armored animals theyre so stupid #in a slash pos way. look at those freaks go

[cliveguy]

every time top surgery is getting discussed in the news a trans guy will be like wow it sucks that everyone is being so publicly disgusted by my body with no repercussions it's as though they don't think we're people with feelings. and then a million people will jump in like ALSO SOME CIS WOMEN (the only people who can get breast cancer) ALSO LOOK LIKE THIS. this picture of a trans man that everyone is calling a mutilated freak instantly made me think of cis women, and look at her living her best life! misgendering? i'm a trans ally but come on, it's a drawing, don't you think that's being a bit silly? art is about interpretation anyway - we should celebrate ALL afabs who get mastectomies, for whatever reason ^.^

#um.txt #its true trans people are mutilated freaks who have no right to want to not be called mutilated freaks by every major news outlet #but wont someone think of the cis people? #i understand the point when its made sparingly. but when its the first thing people jump on without even acknowledging #that trans people's bodies are currently a public spectacle for the public to gag over. well yeah it does feel like #they dont think we have feelings lol. #ntm people of any gender can have medical complications that lead to having breast tissue removed. so the constant comparisons to #cis women feel. well. this is word for word an exchange i saw on twitter and they were talking about afabs so lol #only 'afabs' are capable of getting breast cancer apparently. and breast cancer is the only reason for breast tissue removal. im so smart. #sorry this costa shit is pissing me off. my grandparents are telegraph/mail readers so u can imagine how its been going #watching half my family including my little brother be slowly radicalised against me bc of the right wing pull of this country 🥰 #and im powerless to stop it bc im just a wokey tra and they wont take me seriously 😁

where are you Deleted User

#its inevitable and something you have to expect when internet friends disappear/move on/drift apart/whatever the situation is #+often its something that doesn't need to be forever its someone to exchange images+problems+mail with when you need that sort of thing most #and inevitably it stops which is fine.but the problem is afterwards when you take an image that you know you would have sent to them or you #are standing in a museum looking at a postcard you know you would have sent them + its like oh! a momentary case of mild sadness is upon me! #but such is life

Hey! i made a zine about an old letter duvall once wrote as part of an exchange and am getting ready to mail them out - if you, person reading this, would like a copy mailed to you, please fill out this form!

it will be posted online once the physical copies start arriving so if you’re not comfortable giving your address to a stranger (i have absolutely no nefarious intentions but who could know that for sure), you won’t be missing anything

I ALSO figured out how to quickly small print booklets, so i can send hard copies of the duvall epilogue comic along with the zines if anyone wants one

(i’ll probably be mailing these out in the first week of october, so if you do want one please fill out the form before then!)

#chine/duvall #zine exchange #i maaaaybe got a wax seal stamp to match this one i designed for duvall and am excited to use it #also i'm using the printer at work and am very happy to abuse it so #lets go lets go #(feel free to reblog i'm excited to have something to mail hahaha)
