#(KIND OF ITS RELEVANT HERE?)

[theminecraftbee]

listen a friend suggested to me. a concept for a fic/au. that i do not know enough about qsmp to create so i am handing it here into the world in case someone DOES know enough and is inspired by this.

anyway so for those who aren't aware, iskall and tubbo have a vhsmp bit where iskall insists that he is tubbo's dad, a thing tubbo originally agreed to in order to get resources, lol. he is also son of captain sparklez by these means, but it's iskall who doesn't let the bit go; basically every interaction they've had on twitter since iskall refers to tubbo as "son", and even sometimes just like, randomly when iskall is otherwise talking about tubbo. it is my favorite silly family dynamic out there, i love it dearly.

the thing my friend suggested was: what if iskall finds out this means he has a granddaughter?

so my qsmp mutuals and followers PLEASE tell me what that would be like, as angsty or as silly as you'd like (i've heard Something is going down with tubbo on qsmp??? i think???), i just think this would be fantastic. i don't even know which egg tubbo has i lost track. or what that egg is like. i just. need this to exist in the world i can learn.

just. picture. iskall, bursting into tears: MUMBO I AM A GRANDFATHER. MUMBO I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO BE A GRANDFATHER. mumbo, a little panicked: i didn't know you were a father-father.

that's all,

#hermitcraft #qsmp #vhsmp #(KIND OF ITS RELEVANT HERE?) #iskall85 #tubbo #please. please i need this to exist. please someone who actually knows things about qsmp tell me whether this is sensible as a thing to exi #please-- #anyway thank you lei. still thinking about this.

#GET IT??? HIS *BULL*FIGHTING DAYS....hahah yeahhhh im so clever..... #suddenly had the urge to draw old man version matador nando bcs DC randomly called him a matador during quali #and im like oh my god....dc....youre so right.... #hoping this piece works as some kind of blood sacrifice for his performance in about 7 hrs :) #get it blood sacrifice??? and hes cutting his hand in this piece??? #thats supposed to represent two things. #1. hes doing a blood pact/sacrifice so his performance goes well #2. hes testing the sharpness so he can slay the bull!(and the...horse? 🤭🤭) #had a very interesting convo w Suzuki abt the implications of matador nando #based on a meme i made 😭 abt how our fantasy is that hes gonna be the bullfighter. hes gonna slay the bull #but the reality will be that he looks upon the bull from a distance #hes meant to kill the bull to overcome it. but he just ends up longing to be the bull. he fails.. hahaha get it.... #lmao angst aside i think its kinda funny how i can have this reasoning for the matador au in two eras #thats long the old man has been here. has had two distinct periods of challenging the (red) bull #ANYWAYS!!!! hope ya like!!!!!! i think this is pretty relevant hopefully 🤭🤭 #quite happy w this one even if it was less of an ordeal than most of my drawings #waaaahahhh hes so handsome!!!!! handsomest guy!!!!!!! #lol scheduling this like an hr before the race cause as i said. its an offering. its a sacrifice. i pray to the racing gods #tw blood #<- just a bit 🥰 he was originally just gonna be holding the sword but i realized ouch! sharp!!! #f1 #formula 1 #fernando alonso #catie.art. #fa14 #f1 art #f1 fanart #matador au

ok but the thing is shadow and infinite isnt a "healthy" or "good" relationship at first. it takes them years to be good for each other. they shouldn't have been together! they should have broken up years ago! but they didn't and they are working through it and eventually things work out. EVENTUALLY Infinite stops enabling Shadow's self destructive behavior and EVENTUALLY Shadow stops tolerating the admittedly unacceptible way Infinite treats him.

See, Infinite doesn't know what it's like to be with someone who doesn't want to hurt him even a little. Every relationship he's ever been in has been a really unhealthy and dangerous power dynamic (he's been the weak one and the strong one before). It takes him YEARS DECADES maybe even CENTURIES to realize Shadow is NOT LIKE THAT. Shadow didn't even really want to specifically hurt Infinite when they first encountered each other in the Mystic Ruins. He was just doing a job. It takes Infinite such a long time to understand that. He's so obsessed with Shadow but he has this one conflicting core understanding with Shadow that he simply cannot wrap his head around. He needs to stay in control so that "when Shadow tries to fuck him over he has a way to regain the upper hand."

Shadow thinks he's lesser than everyone, even Infinite. Even though Infinite literally started a war and wanted to destroy everything just because he was bored. If Infinite wants all the power over him, Shadow is okay with that because surely he deserves it for being such a miserable creature. When Infinite calls him names and treats him poorly he just lets it happen because Infinite is the first person he's met in a long time who will treat him in a way he understands. To Shadow, this is unfortunately what true love looks like. Being attacked is familiar, and Shadow knows that when people are kind to him he doesn't know how to deal with it. He thinks Infinite is giving him a form of stability that he can't live without.

What's confusing for both of them is that they do have moments of tenderness, and they do have inexplicable boundaries that they never cross with each other. They've never discussed their limits, but there are things they would never do to each other because it'd be too much.

They have moments of vulnerability, where they are just sitting beside each other and Infinite is telling Shadow how beautiful he is. And Shadow believes it because he's pretty sure that Infinite wouldn't waste his time being nice if he didn't mean it. Shadow introduced Infinite to a part of himself he didn't know existed, a part of himself that doesn't want to have to try to hard to reach for the top. But that vulnerability is terrifying at first and neither of them want to acknowledge it. It just happens and then its back to business as usual again. They don't talk about it.

They will do things to each other that cause conflict or anger, enable each other's worst habits, but they won't try to change each other's identities. That's the hard limit. They might have an argument where they harp on each other's bad behavior, but it's just talk. They'd never do anything to each other that would actively contribute to a crisis because one thing they both understand on a fundamental level is that changing the answers to core questions like "What is my purpose?" or "What do I believe is right?" is mind breaking. They never force each other to do things that challenge the status quo or threaten to shake their already deteriorating stability.

But this boundary is also part of the problem. They, for a long time, don't let each other grow and absolutely get worse! They break each other down, but they keep making excuses for why they should stay together. People who constantly fight with each other should not be together!

And when I say "together" I don't really mean together. Their relationship is a situationship at best, but Infinite still refers to Shadow as his boyfriend. Shadow insists they aren't even friends, but doesn't really passionately refute when Infinite says they are together. He just deflects. Of course he wants to be Infinite's partner, but that commitment is terrifying and he doesn't get how Infinite can be ready to commit like that even though it's been YEARS. It feels so impermanent because Shadow's perception of time is based on his immortality. That's one thing Infinite doesn't have (doesn't really think he has).

Two things jade them: time and people.

Shadow and Infinite won't challenge each other's core values, but time and people will. For Shadow, this comes in the form of his admittedly slightly larger support system: people like Rouge Amy and Big especially, but also Sonic to some degree. Infinite stagnates. His only support system is Shadow, really. He also has, like, Big and Sonic and Wave, but he isn't ever vulnerable with them in the way Shadow is with his. Shadow starts to grow, Infinite doesn't.

Infinite is definitely the worse off in this relationship. Shadow always knew that. They both knew it when they got together. Shadow has a savior complex. He thought he could fix it.

It in fact gets worse. Infinite is just bound to break that unspoken boundary they set, and Shadow has to put his foot down. Only then do they break all of their walls down and talk about those unacknowledgable moments. Only then do they get better. They can't work out unless they start to see each other as equals, but it's a really slow process for them to explore what that looks like or how its possible.

#infinite the jackal #shadow the hedgehog #shadfinite #infinadow #textpost #squid screams #i also have some ocs relevant to this #but i havent mentioned them here yet #so less confusing not to mention them #theres also more about shadows savior complex #but its kind of self projecting and #doesnt fit with the point im trying to make #shadow and infinite have an open relationship which is part of #the reason they eventually grow #because if they were isolated they'd probably just kill each other #i didnt get to it much here but infinite being the first one shadow #feels real kinship with is important because its a gateway to self love #which shadow has none of lol #and in turn shadow is a gateway for infinite inti trusting others #ill make a different post about that later #guys they are so important to me #i could say words about them forever #THE POINT IS THEY ARE TOXIC #THE POINT IS THEY WORK TOGETHER TO FIX IT #THE POINT IS NOT EVERYTHING IS PERFECT ALL THE TIME #AND JUST BECAUSE ITS BROKEN DOESNT MEAN IT CANT BE FIXED!!!!! #BAD RELATIONSHIPS ARE NOT A LOST CAUSE #ITS POSSIBLE FOR BAD PEOPLE TO TURN AROUND #i have catholic guilt. what about it?

‘The what do you have there?’ ‘A smoothie’ is living rent free in my head omg. I think about it and I cackle.

Might try to do a mini comic for that I love it so much XD (no promises but it’s definitely a possibility)

#I have no fanart of human richarlyson so here is an egg verison XD #also glad you enjoyed the meme XD #merfolk au #it's also kind of funny with Felps being a captain and finding Richas #Cuz there is norse mythology about fishermen finding children in their nets and adopting them #Thats simplification of the stories and not relevant to the au but its a thing I think about #I can talk more about it if people are intressted

couple miscellaneous adbot doodles from the last few days! a string puller doing what it does, talking heads and crowd pleasers gettin' along, and a new oc, mach popeil. voted cog nations favourite infomercial host for the third month running, he's a beloved tv salesman with a small burgeoning fan club and a smile sharper than this free* set of steak knives!

they werent lying that knuckles series barely has knuckles in it

#i pirated that shit Btw just so we're clear. also gonna talk about it a little bit in the tags #nothing too spoilery but also might not wanna read if you want to go in knowing absolutely nothing? idk #anyway he WAS a main character still he was present for a decent amount of the first couple episodes #but the amount of screentime he gets just starts dropping after that . hes barely there at all in the second half ??? #and it feels like theres a lot of scenes mostly focusing on wade and his problems and not near as many for knuckles and his whole deal #overall it feels more like a wade show with knuckles in it than a knuckles show with wade in it. which sucks #and human characters having plot relevance isnt the problem here i dont mind human characters at all i think they can be really fun #its the fact that the human characters are taking over the story and spotlight when the show is called knuckles #and all the marketing makes it look like knuckles is the main focus #and i also would have preferred if they just went with a differnet character to be knuckles' human friend #because i dont particulraly care about wade. and the knuckles (and sonic and tails) i know would not be friends with cops </3 #well at least the story wasnt knuckles training wade to be a better cop like a lot of people were expecting but thats like.the bare minimum #also aside from the issues relating to knuckles' screentime (or lack of screentime) i thought the ending was unsatisfying #regardless of all that though there WERE some parts i enjoyed or found kind of funny or whatever. because knuckles so cutesy as always #knuckles being a cute little guy is the most important part of the show actually #and i liked the parts with sonic tails and maddie even if they were only there for like 5 minutes #(i really wish those three had gotten more screentime. i feel like they could have easily worked in at least one more scene with them) #and its a minor thing but the opening sequence is cute. was honestly expecting just a title card or something #overall the show is just . kind of okay i guess. not the worst thing ive ever seen but still disappointing ? idk how to explain.. #my expectations also werent very high in the first place #so maybe im being a bit more generous than i would have been otherwise. idk #and i definitely would not recommend this to anyone who already dislikes the sonic movies . youll probably hate this more #like people who thought the human characters got too much screentime in the second movie would lose their minds if they saw this

Intro post? I guess???? Cuz I actually have followers now

I'm Arven, but this isn't an RP blog or anything. I'm an alter in a system and this is just my little blog where I can be myself and have fun with the cards I've been dealt.

I have an AU I draw sometimes called the Magenta au. It touches on a lot of stuff personal to me like disability and abuse, and it is a comfort for me :] to be clear, I am disabled and a wheelchair user and the au draws on my personal experiences.

But tldr is this a pokemon blog? Mostly. Is it a system blog? Kind of?? Is it an rp blog? No but rp does sound like fun. But pokemon sv and Arven as a character are very personal to me so I have a lot of boundaries wrt fanon.

Hope u have a nice day if you're reading this ✨️

#honestly was originally kind of nervous abt making an intro post #but i feel like its relevant info given the stuff i post here #kind of just want to find a space where i can engage in source content healthily #and maybe make some friends who understand what it's like

Something I forgot about the difference between Tumblr and Instagram (or at least the one I'm thinking about right now) is that I'll post something on Instagram, get the handful of likes from the regulars, and then poof. It's gone. Off to the ether with you. Guess I'll have to post something new

Meanwhile on Tumblr, I am STILL regularly getting likes on the bifrost incident stained glass piece. Definitely not as many but they're still coming. USUALLY it's the few people I'm friends with sharing a thing once or twice and then that goes into the ether too, but when one of my drawings goes past the normal circle of friends I'm getting notifs on that for DAYS.

Plus, it's never fully gone! I can go reblog my older art whenever I want! Whereas on Instagram you'd just. I don't know. Post the same thing again? Which sucks. What if I just want to remind someone that something exists? What if I don't have anything new or special to say? What if I just went "Oh yeah I still really like this piece" and then I bring it back to the top so other people can see it too.

Also the you can only post squares thing. Who the HELL made a site around sharing art and images and said you can only use perfect squares. FUCK you

#having thoughts about art tonight and this one felt relevant so yall get ir #*it #not art #i am STILL getting the ocassional like on the mechs sketchbook page #meanwhile i posted my most recent (and current favorite) one to instagram at APPARENTLY a weird time #cause only a third of the usual people have seen it #and i have NO way to bump it again. absolutely zero. the algorithm sees all and it wants me dead #tumblr is a way less useful site if you want to be professional with your work #but its way better for actually getting that validation #that people like your stuff and would like you to keep making it #i dunno it feels different #i always have to try to get the most traction possible on instagram #meanwhile over here i go 'i thought this would be fun!! i wanted to post it because maybe some of you #who are stuck in small dead fandom hell would like it too!' #AND THEN THEY DO #AND THEY ARE SO OPENLY KIND #i dont know. I Dont Know. im having thoughts

Doodle that was. Supposed to be something else but I decided it would be funny to draw them scared pressed against the wall silly style (attempting to hide in plain sight)

Now what are they hiding from....? 🤔 And Why? 😳

Under cut! Is a process shot that would make an onlooker ask "Where are their clothes :/" but I actually really like the anatomy there so I wanna show it!!

Omg nobody look!!! They're naked........ (mostly.)

#fire emblem #feh #I THINK i've mentioned it before but moe's pants are v intentional (few dif ways) but most relevant here #is how they cover up moe's figure. which is honestly something i downplay but IS meant to be present #VERY thin line to tread. between how it can feel nice vs aaugh augh ogh aaugh dysphoria. aaughhhhhooughghhh #but also it was really fun to draw moe like. prominently round shaped. it really is so satyr coded. #PLUS ALSO. dysphoria can't catch me when alfonse fire emblem over here is so thighs. he is SO thighs #but here comparing the process to the clothed sketch you can really see just how much the pants change its shape #moe is NOT a twink. its thighs and ass are too fat. this should be celebrated. give me strength to celebrate this. #meanwhile alfonse i just can't help myself. he's supposed to be slender esp upper half of him but #put some flesh on his bones or so help me. make him sturdy. climbable. ect. #still sharena calling him 'kind of slender actually' in alfred's fbs lives in my mind rent free. #it is SUCH a balancing act..... #fe alfonse #moe tag #summoner oc #my art

Sometimes the fact that GRRM has, amid all his efforts to have nuance and a wide spectrum in his female characters and to deconstruct certain tropes, played the daddy's girl tomboy in contrast to the hostility or complete elimination of the female figures in her life trope completely straight over and over again, with basically every female warrior he wrote, from his female lead to two whole secondary POVs to one note extras (with the exception of the Mormont ladies yeah at least, maybe when we get more Alysane content I will be less grumpy about this), leaves me kind of bitterly shocked tbh

#have seen a very rightful post that people are vocal about ned favoring arya but not so about cat favoring sansa and while part of it is #yea some people can't read etc on the other its also true that the first is a living onpage subtle dynamic and plot relevance and #the second is. stock recollection of generic my mom told me to brush my hair :( episodes between characters who never interact #and that kinda contrasts with other things we know of cat: like she clearly did not overvalue primness in her childhood memories. she takes #to other willful ladies so quickly and this with arya already having plenty of negative female figures with sansa jeyne and septa mordane #idk i get why the fandom isnt too focused on this. not ideal for when what is being done is objective analysis of the text ofc. but i feel #ignoring lazy male writing is kind of a fandom tradition even if here the well is poisoned for any deviation from canon sadly #with the distortion at play from that side #i have not tagged the canon nor any character's full name so huh if you see this in any tag i apologize and that wasnt the intention #i also strive heavily in my writing to subvert this with asha as far as canon supports but one my mother raised me to be bold doesnt really #change the fact that is def a case of complete elimination of the female authority figure in practice #op

[ID: digital fanart of Luz and Eda from the owl house set after the season 2 finale King's Tide. The image depicts a crying Luz, sat on the floor and holding an acoustic guitar as if to play it. She's looking down with a frustrated expression, and a dark shadow is cast over her. Behind Luz and faced away from the viewer is Eda playing the lute and kneeling down. She's smiling and is drawn with lighter colours and lineart. There's a soft light coming from off screen illuminating Eda and Luz. The background is white, except for a minimalistic depiction of a floor, which is done with a peach gradient. End ID]

It's not time to make a change / Just relax, take it easy / You're still young, that's your fault./ There's so much you have to know

Things she never got to teach you

based on the HC of Luz having learned guitar from her dad, and me realizing how similar it is to Eda's lute. Perfect recipe for musical angst </3

#the owl house #toh #toh spoilers #(i know its been a couple weeks since the finale but just in case) #luz noceda #eda clawthorne #eda the owl lady #this started as a quick posing practice that then evolved into colouring practice that THEN became lighting practice #it spawned from the hc that luz plays an instrument of some sort #i love projection so i hcd that she plays guitar and that her dad taught her (tho she didn't really pick it up again after he died) #which was all fun and games until i remembered that Eda canonically plays the lute #(which is kind of like an old timeu guitar if you think abt it. kind of) #and suddenly post kings tide the thought got VERY angsty. I'm a big fan #anyway tried out something new for the shading/colouring here and actually ended up pretty happy w/ it??? #I've never done it outside of sketches so i was worried it'd look weird w/ lineart but it doesn't!!! huzzah!!! #anyway put father and son by cat stevens on more toh playlists. its thematically relevent!!! #edit: added in the hc context from the tags cause i felt like the post was confusing without it lol
