Apparently, my decision to be silly and make fanart of someone's writing (because I genuinely enjoy the story the person is writing and I was struck with inspiration upon reading a particular scene) has benevolent and wildly unforeseen consequences.

I apparently gained a bit of control of the canon because said writer really loved the art and decided what I drew/draw is canon.

2. Writer put said artwork into the document of his story right below the scene, so now it's IN the story where people who read the story will see it (with a link to me)

3. He sent the artwork to all his friends and people he knows because he was so excited

Wholesome interaction and I watched him do all that in real time, good stuff. However...there are two more consequences I was notified of today...nearly a full week after I gave the artwork.

Seeing the artwork caused his friends to become interested in reading and hearing about his story, which means more people are reading what he's writing and giving him critique on the story (which he actively asks for).

Apparently, upon seeing the art, his writer friends got a sudden second wind to pick back up writing they'd abandoned for a few months. Because, I quote, "seeing that someone enjoyed {his} writing enough to take the time to make art of it gave them the motivation that maybe THEY can write something that will inspire someone to also create something." I have accidentally caused a writing frenzy among his writer friends and my silly idea to make art for someone has had a butterfly effect for people who I don't even know.

Uhh...I'm pretty sure there's a moral here but I am tired and have a great deal of emotions about this.

#shay speaks #crying and screaming #I was not intending this! I just wanted to be nice to someone and show my appreciation for their work! #make someone's day by giving them a personalized gift #maybe make them cry a bit in joy or something (because he said he would if I went through with making art for him and he knew my goals) #This is the silliest thing to happen from me making art and idk what to do with this information #positivity

genuinely can't stress how nice it is to just enjoy yourself and do what feels good instead of being overly worried abt getting each other off

#thinking abt when my bf visited last month #it was nice to finally stop being so hard on myself abt what i thought should be the goal #hopefully i am slowly repairing my relationship with sex lmao #my posts #this isn't even necessarily queer but i am so im tagging it like that lol #queer nsft #queer ns/fw #trans nsft #trans ns/fw #t4t nsft #t4t bottom #mlm nsft #mlm ns/fw #mlnb nsft #mlnb ns/fw #nblm nsft #nblm ns/fw

one thing i do think is that if skk did get together, it'd be dazai who would make the first move

#i think dazai is actually a very proactive person. if he's got a goal the plans were made like months ago. #like the misconception that dazai is lazy is bc he ACTS lazy for the unique sense of joy he gets from annoying people like that. #but also dazai's lazy act might be a way show that he's comfortable #chuuya's sort of passive in comparison. he's a go getter in some aspects but i think so far he often shys away from what he truly wants #like he probably wouldn't be in a relationship unless it's someone he a.) trusted and #b.) was reassured that 'hey this is something that's safe and okay it'll be nice. you don't need to keep your walls up' #even then he'd be hesitant. #someone just show this bro love

#aideen fire emblem #edain fire emblem #fire emblem #fire emblem 4 #fe4 #genealogy of the holy war #forever trying to capture the personality her face sprite has and failing #I'LL GET IT ONE DAY #there's something really like... unexpectedly sharp about her face. as in she looks gentle but kind of determined too #and (i think) it ties in nicely with what we hear about her in-game #she keeps her cool in most situations; she has a goal she never takes her sight off that she is willing to change her life for #i think she has a lot of willpower but it isn't used in an aggressive/individualistic way at all. she's just very focussed #anyway i feel like my interpretation of her character might be different from what others think of her #but. i'm the one doing the drawings so deal with it lol

This creature has been smooched on her face and stuffed full of snacks <3

We qualified each rally obedience run (despite large areas requiring handler improvement <3) and finished the weekend with a 97, 84, and 97. This baby dog now has her Rally Advanced title!

(All rosettes were default as we were the only ones in our class.)

#a whole collection of emotions #I am really proud of her #she is a fun little dog and she tries so hard #I asked too much of her to do two trials in a day (now I know) #lots of areas for improvement but this was a nice satisfying way to finish trialing for a while #my low key goals this year was her RN and CH (if we were lucky) #so to have finished both of those + her RA has me a bit lost now #we're probably taking a break for a while until I figure out what our next steps are #she's growing up so fast and yet is so baby 😭 #turnpike #gotta go camping with all this nice weather

The more I think about Azure Lion, the more uncomfortable I feel about him

#fili jesting #lego monkie kid #lmk #lmk azure lion #not that I don't think he's a good character #but when I think more in-depth about him and his relationship with swk #I see how he essentially seems to have manipulated swk for his own goals and than he manipulates qxt and his friends #and how he isn't even like lbd who is openly antagonistic #he seems like he's nice but than he just smiles as he's imprisoned qxt's mentor and than he blames qxt for trying to get swk back #he seems like a 'the end justifies the means' kind of guy #and he did seem to have somewhat good intentions #but good intentions isn't a justification for manipulating and hurting people #and lmk is known for having unreliable narrators #and while I do think that there was some truth to azure's words during the flashback he showed qxt #namely the heaven not aiding humans and letting demons hurt them without regard #but he is also trying to get sympathy from qxt about himself and his goals #even when he seems like he's being honest #he's manipulating people and trying to get their sympathy so they'll go along with what he wants #and when he's not doing that he's praising people and putting them on pedestals like he did with swk #he uses flattery as a form of manipulation and he played right into swk's own pride to manipulate him #idk #might be overanalyzing but I am having thoughts

Much like how the majority of people who wanted totk Zelda to stay a dragon at the end actually wanted Zelda to be a big tiddy dragon girl, I feel like what a lot of people who say they wanted a more complex Ganondorf for totk actually just want a Ganondorf that's a tumblr sexyman, and are too racist to realize that he already is one

#THIS IS ABOUT THE FANDOM IN GENERAL THIS IS NOT ABOUT THE TOTK GANONDORF POSTS IVE BEEN REBLOGGING LATELY #those guys are cool don't get it twisted #that post from earlier just had me thinking about that pre totk release fancomic #about link and zelda reviving dehydrated Ganondorf and walking around under the castle together #and Ganondorf is just like ''oh hello my good friends link and zelda'' and is super nice #and also fucking white #and also how fanartists and fic writers are #fucking quick to write Ganondorf as a rapist and add orientalism to his design and in general #characterize him as a mindless brute even when theyre trying to write the Ganondorf they say they want #when Ganondorf is a dracula style manipulator #i joke about how while zelda is playing chess gan and link are playing dnd #but the reality is that zelda and Ganondorf START OUT playing chrss and then link winds up #distracting Ganondorf with dnd which gives zelda time to eat all the chess pieces #which is what I assume is the goal of chess

It's not Wednesday but fuck it, have some WIP crumbs because I need a little cheerleading to get me through the rest of this fic :)

“Did you know that, beside finger prints, dental records are the most identifiable record of a person?”

It’s difficult to see Armand with the light still beaming straight at him. In fact, he cuts a rather haunting image, the way the yellow-white light casts a shadow down across his forehead, shaded by a halo of auburn curls until the only thing visible is a pair of succulent lips, pink and deadly. Still, somehow Lestat can feel the weight of his gaze, the cool prickle that never fails to creep under his skin every time he’s met with those wide, unblinking eyes.

“Aren’t you a treasure trove of fun facts?” He tries to smile, even goes so far as to huff a bit of air from his nostrils in an attempt at laughter. 

Delicate lips twist upwards at the corners, and Lestat can’t tell whether it’s meant to be a smile or a snarl. He doesn’t know which one he wants more. It makes him squirm either way.

“When the flesh is gone,” Armand tucks a stray curl behind his ear. “When the body is burned or bludgeoned beyond recognition, when the fingerprints are rotted away, they look to the teeth to unshroud the mystery of death.”

Lestat feels himself soften at the gentlest sweep of deft fingers over his temple, around the shell of his ear. He turns his whole head, nuzzles into the touch like a shameless kitten experiencing the warmth of human touch for the first time.

“And when we die? What happens then?”

He doesn’t know why he’s asking such a thing of Armand. Surely Armand can’t say anything with much certainty. But there’s another question hiding behind it, a question Lestat has found clever ways of repeating over and over again in countless different ways, never asking outright, but finding some artful way to inquire: what will happen when I am gone? 

Will you recognize me by fangs alone? Will you pluck them from my skull before I turn to ash?

#i'm nowhere near done but my goal is to have this piece finished by the end of the month! #(that's what i said last month in march but FOR REAL THIS TIME LOL I PROMISE) #;my writing #wip wednesday #lestat/armand #pls be nice this is my first lesmand piece LMFAO

idk man i just feel like if i knew that the guy i’m working with was actually a slave under the threat of death i just wouldn’t berate and degrade him all the time

#can you tell i can’t stand veritas ratio #it has really been bothering me that people have been mischaracterizing him because they are desperate to make him a nice person #like. listen #this guy is not a misunderstood good guy #he is a complete asshole with a generally good goal #Doing something kind after showing no compassion for like 3 updates does not change his entire character #I am VERY glad he said what he said to Aventurine in the end #he needed to hear it!! #but that simply does not negate the rest of Ratio’s behavior and i’m very tired of seeing people pretend it does #also just to clarify i think he is an INCREDIBLE character and i’m glad he exists. i just don’t think he’s a very compassionate person #anyway back to my normal tags #love of my life aventurine #love of my life kakavasha #aventurine hsr #hsr #hsr 2.1 #penacony #honkai star rail #dr ratio slander #veritas ratio slander

"ao3 should ban AI works!!!!" please do go on, myself and also every teacher in the world is anxious to hear your plan as to how this could be enforced

#this is a website where some people are writing in their second or third language #and some people are thirteen years old #and some people are trying something new for fun #and people write the same plots over and over because they are here to have a nice time #and not to write top quality literature #so like. genuinely. what is your end goal here #is it not better to have an “AI-generated work” tag that you can filter out #ao3 #otw #not speaking as a volunteer; despite being at the circus these are not my monkeys #op

For those who requested pokemon ko-fi doodle/s before, feel free to let me know if you want a copy of your doodle! All doodle requests have already been finished & posted last year so if you missed yours, please reach out to me here (or thru ko-fi) so I can send it to you!

Also I'm sorry to my ko-fi members for not being able to post any new content for the past 2 months ;_; It's mostly bc I get very busy working on the doodles & commissions (w/c totals around 30-40+ in a month >_<). I've realized that I can't really focus generating monthly content when I'm also working on a lot of comms at the same time. I might have to pause the memberships for now bc of this 😔

Thank you to my members for sticking around this far!! I wish I could've done more but alas I can only do so much :( I might try the monthly support setup again in the future when I'm ready & I've planned ahead on things I'll be posting 😌

#just a quick psa! #sorry to my members again ;_; #and to my november art raffle winner: i'll send you the doodle soon! (sorry it's taking so long >_<) #waughhh... I was going to make 2024 wallpapers w/ a calendar on them to make up for the missed content but #i still have comms to do u_u #maybe for this year I could put more attention to my inprnt store instead #i've been meaning to do that for so long #I still wonder if ppl could really earn a nice amt from uploading prints there but I see artists who actively expand their inprnt store so #i'm guessing it's worth it? :o #having a passive income on the side is what i'd like for this year I think! #it's a nice goal 🌻🌻🌻
