11/23 is good big brother day in japan (11/23 = ii nii-san) so, with that, after one and a half months of working on this, i present my very self-indulgent scenario of vash and knives being brothers and taking that first step to heal.

if you want to throw some support my way i have a higher-res pdf version on my ko-fi shop for $3 - no pressure obviously, this will remain free to read here on my blog indefinitely!

also i would like to give a quick thank you to @/nimpnawakproduction for their references on vash's scars which were pretty much my bible when drawing this LMAO

HOLY SHIT, ANOTHER NEW TOM BLYTH MOVIE.

(i didn't expect this, i'm proud of him!)

PLAINCLOTHES, THE PLOT:

Set in the ’90s and inspired by true events, a working-class undercover officer is tasked with entrapping and apprehending gay men, only to find himself drawn to one of his targets.

I will probably write about this in more detail later. but while im on the subject of “pre-hiatus/early fob is better than post-hiatus fob” brain rot:

if you look at photos and gifs and videos of soul punk era patrick and think that was the happiest or healthiest that he has ever been. i want you to look in the mirror really closely and examine why. think about it really hard for me ok.

#im begging some of y’all to open ur eyes and read the things you type and say #maybe I’m just projecting bc. of my age and place in life and a variety of other reasons but #soul punk patrick never looked that happy to me #I saw a young man who had been torn to shreds & forced to put himself back together only to be torn to shreds again but now ON HIS OWN #& forced to smile for everyone while he did so #like. his body language during so many interviews and fan interactions. cmon y’all do you not see it #the thinly veiled bitterness and anger #bandom bullshit #kayce’s corner.txt

"Not every window is a door, but most doors have windows." "Don't tap on the glass. You might not like what happens next."

this is Kris the Kriptid, an AU Kris Dreemurr that may or may not be trying to inspire their own creepypasta. they think they're the scariest glitch entity to ever appear on a player's screen-- but they also think that accidentally setting off the smoke detector by burning toast when they were 10 qualifies them as an arsonist, so take that with a grain of salt. don't be fooled; they are still Kris under all that edge.

here they're singing the refrain from Cabinet Man by Lemon Demon for some funky composition practice; it just felt right for this menace and may or may not hint a LITTLE at what sort of wacky game-breaking nonsense I've got up my sleeve with Jailbroken, shhh

#deltarune #deltarune comic #kris dreemurr #kris deltarune #deltarune AU #Jailbroken AU #Kris the Kriptid #my art #my comics #i mostly did this to practice layouts and coloring styles #because i actually really wanna make Jailbroken a comic #and can I just say. i am REALLY happy with this #especially since I've barely drawn anything in literally 2 years #then suddenly BOOM my hands get possessed by the world's worst AU Kris with the irresistible impulse to make this exist #you know i'm freaking proud since i actually bothered to put a watermark on it and i have literally never done that before lol #i have a ton of sketches about this project... soon... #(i will note that The Kriptid isn't the actual protag Kris of Jailbroken tho; they ARE an important cast member though!) #anyway they're definitely some variety of goofy joke AU even if in Jailbroken that won't really show for a whiLE #eyestrain cw #might as well be safe tbh #ask to tag

still playing clangen in my downtime, thunderstar died of old age because of course nothing else could kill him. congratulations greenstar, who was found as a kit with that ribbon, i'm sure that thing is so disgusting by this point i love you.

bonus thunderstar's old sprite i really liked how it looked:

#clangen #don does art #gonna try to have some more variety in posting i have some oc refs and also end of year irl art projects but clangen is fun to relax with

Making myself sad thinking about how completely floored Stede would be at someone taking an interest in his feelings or interests. Like, not just him showing Ed his cabin or the seemingly rare occasions he talked at Mary about, say, wanting to live on a boat, but the prospect of Ed asking him how he is, how he's feeling, what that book's about, is he enjoying it etc. I think it would be more than he'd know what to do with.

#yes I'm projecting I'm always projecting but normally it's Ed so there's variety at least

howdy!!! @thatonegayship demanded that I tell you abt this silly idea I had abt reincarnated dipper AUs (which funny enough I think was inspired by you?? i think I saw a post)

ANYWAY, whenever dipper gets reincarnated, the placement of his birthmark changes, BUT the reason behind the new birthmark placement is because that was the place that dipper's lover (Bill, it's always Bill bye) kissed the most in the previous life!!

Well that's adorable! Very good 👌 And very sweet.

And you're gonna see a couple Dippers with the birthmark plastered right on their mouth before Bill starts to get the hint.

#answers #Bill's gotta make up for the kisses on the mouth by adding lots everywhere else #Before he can be sure what's going on he's gotta test it too. Which means getting creative #Dipper is deeply confused as to why Bill's always kissing his elbow/back of his knee/his little finger. What is the deal. #It's a secret reason that will delight Bill later #Variety is the spice of life and Bill wants to confirm that that's what's *actually* happening! Gotta test it #It'll take a couple lifetimes but he doesn't mind a long term project that means smooching his husband #Also means *Tons* of forehead smooches when he wants the old familiar look for the next time around #Consider: incarnation of Dipper who just. Is SO annoyed at the fact that his stupid birthmark is a goddamn *tramp stamp* #Bill high fives himself for pulling that one off #Also: a Dipper who has a birthmark on a place where you can't see it unless he's uh. Excited #Bill laughs his ass off when he sees that one and gets kicked for it #Not necessarily canon but a pretty stinkin cute concept!

I love you:

- insecure! mc who can't help but despise yet adore Lucifer at the same time, who can't help look up to the demon who gave up everything for his family and loves them with everything he has, who is a better sibling that they could ever be, is the Demon Prince's right hand man and certainly looks the part too, perfectionist and disciplined worker, who mirrors the ideal person mc would like to become yet fails at miserably, who wants to turn away and scowl when he enters the room but ends up watching in envious awe instead

-vengeful! mc who can't stand Diavolo after everything that he had done to them (forcing them out of their home and comfort in the name of 'unifying the realms', orchestrating their murder, making them dance to his tune whenever he was bored), but is aware of his interest with them and uses it to their advantage, purposely favouriting the brothers and the angels in front of his face, who invites all but him to events and outings that they plan (and makes sure to post photos of their time on Devilgram), who does this again and again and again until Diavolo himself is fully aware of it and questions them directly with sad eyes, whose only goal is to make him feel lonely and unloved as they did during their first months in the Devildom

-broken hearted! mc who only wanted to help in the beginning, who only wanted to help fix a broken family and was left broken themselves, who gave and gave until there was nothing left, who decided in the end that if they couldn't be better than the demons, that they would become something so much worse

#might be projecting a bit on the Lucifer one #but i really wish there was more variety and more complexities to mcs other than them being extremely forgiving or complete chaos #gimme an mc with complicated relationships with the brothers #an mc who refuses teatime with royals out of hatred #yet still goes anyway out of fear of disobedience #obey me #obey me diavolo #obey me lucifer

Mountain Apparition "Astonishing Kumomagusa"

art by juwen971

This is Sannyo's first Spellcard. It is based on the Kumomagusa flower, native to the mountains of Japan (Saxifraga Merkii, Fisch.)

Curiously, not all Kumomagusa have 6 overlapping pedals like Sannyo's, though some do. A spread out, 5 pedal variety is more common, though they are the same species, think of it as a 4 leaf clover vs 3 leaf, but not that rare. The overlapping 6 petal variety that Sannyo's Spellcard is modeled after is the mutated variety. (She does tend to go for the rare flowers, after all)

On the topic of variety, Kumomagusa also come in multiple colors beyond Sannyo's choice.

And it appears a "western style" one has been breed to survive in the west in different environments

Kumomagusa are a low perennial. Meaning they live for multiple years, but don't grow as tall as many perennial flowers tend to do.

Their natural habitat is generally stoney places that are well supplied with underground water in mountain regions.

like all of Sannyo's flowers, they are naturally extremely tough flowers and grow in rough environments.

Moving on to Sannyo's actual Spellcard, the variety she's chosen is a red edged, 6 petal Kumomagusa, evenly overlapped and with rounded petals

Here are some in game images for "Heaven Shaking Kumomagusa" the Spellcard's Normal mode version:

and here are some in game images for "Astonishing Kumomagusa". The Spellcard's Lunatic mode Version:

The pattern is extremely beautiful and recognizable, but it's not known for its difficulty.

psychoanalysing people by observing reccurent patterns in their OCs would be a far more efficient method than whatever shit freud was on

#i have never made up a MC that was that really different from their predecessor since i created okamy at age 13 #some characteristics come and go but the very core stays the same #at least the other characters have a bit more variety #but yeah. cali/al/eurydice/the asterion MC/sascha/zed/tev ater/the hunter/nive/the deserts garden MC/dale/thespace musician/auxanne/evenNOX #ETC ETC i cant remember all of them rn #even the ones from minors projects #well this cant be helped. i shall create more okamydlings #anyway

A whole piece on our Glenn being underrated and overlooked!

The article gets into some of his school days, Juilliard and his perspective on acting, his work on Sunny, leaving Sunny after season 12 when he'd thought the show should end (can't wait for that podcast conversation in 3 years or maybe even in Season 6 if they ever address Glenn Howerton Burnout No. 1), and later coming back, continuing to push his boundaries in acting in season 15 with the Ireland arc, and working with director Matt Johnson on Blackberry.

(Gonna use colours now to better distinguish screenshots of the article from my stuff for anyone not using dark mode)

A lot of it is quotes from Charlie and Rob, who are properly frustrated that he's been so overlooked (them, the original Glenn girlies!), his wife Jill, Megan and other people he's worked with, like an old drama teacher from school and Mike O'Brien from AP Bio.

(ok seriously who airbrushed and smoothed the shit out of his beautiful old wrinkly face in this photo, they need to be flogged)

There's also quotes from people, like the Lost writer who's a known Sunny fan and also co-wrote The Hunt, who watched him do his thing in Blackberry and think it's finally going to get him the recognition he's deserved all along.

CALL. THEM. OUT.

Honestly, all of this is just giving me a lot of respect for Matt Johnson, who was looking for comedic actors to play dramatic roles, specifically wanted Glenn to play Jim in Blackberry and had to fight to get him the role because Canadian productions with Canadian funding don't like using outside actors. This guy saw the vision and he was cool with Glenn getting that stupid haircut too.

Apparently, when Glenn received the script, his first thought was why me, shouldn't some bigshot do this role... he's such an idiot.

Something we've always known and the article confirms again is about how he's clearly grateful for the opportunities they have with Sunny, the kind that few writers/actors ever get with that level of creative control (something they get reminded of by other people in the industry a lot) but he's also been the most stifled by it of anyone in the cast because of his goal of being an actor more than the others, and so it gives him these mixed feelings about the longevity of the show.

I don't know if they've ever confirmed that RCG talked about ending the show around season 12.

He's not wrong. We know that once he came back to season 13, he did his rewrites on all the scripts featuring Dennis even though he wasn't fully back to writing yet. I personally don't think they should continue the show if any of them leave. They're better off taking longer breaks between the seasons like Curb does.

Good on you Rob. You tell them.

Seriously, they'd better now give him something good and interesting, so that it's not just us Sunny stans screaming into the void like usual.

if there's anything i care about more than magical girls, it's magical women

#txt.mine #thinking about how much i love the niche cuz adult lifestyles have such a fun variety of moments to start a story with #and i feel like the balance of agency through life & work & purpose & desire can get skewed in suchh a good way #like. maybe some characters are unemployed or stuck in a dead-end job or unsustainable passion-project. maybe everyone's in the same career #it's just so fun to see ensembles with conflicting life-styles and watch how it goes when these people finally have a moment to talk again #or there's roommates who got scouted off the street then have to balance deeply contemporary problems and a patron who's passionate but also #needs proxies for material change [fighting monsters of the week] #anyway. im so sleepy #to the stories i am thinking of [magical girl friendship squad {youtube series}] [heaven will be mine {pc visual novel}] [life after magic #{pc visual novel. disclaimer that i havent finished lam yet; tho i started it on a whim & it's Pretty charming so far}] #i need to talk about these stories more. god i love when women are complicated & stuck in a strained community
