i am so obsessed with how like. taken as read the ot3 are at this point. like on the one hand it feels like they've been building up to this for ages but on the other hand it kind of feels like i blinked and we skipped right past some Major Turning Point where everything got spelled out and we're just already in firmly Established Relationship-land. obviously tarvek is too well-protected for anyone to assassinate openly, look how angry his boyfriend and girlfriend are at the idea of anyone threatening him. at this point i'm half-convinced agatha's just going to refer to her boyfriends in passing to someone else and no one's even going to comment on it until van finds out twenty pages later and immediately starts making everyone pay up

#girl genius #i just. the matching frowns. tarvek's deliberately-foppish not-quite-innocent shit-eating grin and folded hands #i'm obsessed with this panel i'm obsessed with this page i'm obsessed with this entire week's comics #and everything that everyone has chosen to say about these three since. man i don't even remember. october? #when was the comment about albia worrying colette will join the polycule i forget #i mean and also everyone has said about these three ever. violetta telling gilvek to stop flirting lives in my head rent free #but the entire last month has just been. i am Reeling what has HAPPENED #i was ready to live off the group hug for the next YEAR and every comic then has felt like a brand new brick???? #except for krosp and norville's grand adventure which. well that also felt like a set of bricks but very different ones #also i'm only half-convinced bc a) agatha *is* awfully good at big dramatic speeches #and it's still hard to imagine the Big Relationship(s) Upgrade(s) happening without one #b) it also feels extremely plausible that instead of agatha talking about her boyfriends to a third party #gil or tarvek will refer to *their* boyfriend to agatha (who will not comment on that until van finds out twenty pages later etc) #anthyding can hadplen etc and it feels so much like suddenly it already has. what timeline are we IN #sarah don't look #nyquil don't look

imagine you're a reporter and you've been dating jude, but you had this huge argument the day before the game and you've been giving him the silent treatment but the next day you're the one who has to interview him after the game so when you're finally forced to speak to him he just has the cockiest smirk on his face and keeps looking you up and down because he knows it makes you nervous but also pissed at the same time bc you're still angry at him and you don't want him to think you're fine now that you've had to fake being nice to him on camera

#just had to drop this here #bc i can't get over this clip #i would fold so hard if i was the reporter #jude bellingham

people who think will byers hates himself for being gay when will byers is one of the very few characters on the show that has refused to change himself to fit anyone else's idea of what he should be despite the fact that people, including his own father, have been harassing, bullying, and abusing him for it literally his entire fucking life are just...... so weird.

will's entire POINT is that he will survive and brave whatever you throw his way against all odds and come out on the other side of it still clutching on to his sense of self and hope that tomorrow will be a better day. the entire point of his character is that he loves what he loves without apology or shame.

he sings "that weird song he loves" in the middle of hell because it reminds him of his brother and offers him comfort in a place where there is none. he creates art because he loves it and doesn't care if it isn't something boys do, then he gifts it to his friends because he loves them and wants them to know it, too. he loves dnd and writes campaigns and dresses up for them because they bring him joy and he just wants to spend time with his friends even if they think they're "too cool" for it now.

he knows that sometimes it's harder than it should be to be gay in a homophobic society and has been harassed for that literally his entire fucking life it's LITERALLY how they introduce him to us not even twenty minutes into this fucking show and YET !!!!!!! he doesn't back away from that. ever.

he gets picked on for his clothes, but he doesn't change them. he gets called names, but he doesn't make any attempt to conform. his best friend, the boy that he's in love with and his very first friend ever, tells him it isn't his fault that he doesn't like girls and shamefully asks him if he really thought they were going to play games together in his basement for the rest of their lives and never get girlfriends, and what does will do?

he says yeah. i guess i did. i really did.

will faces all of that and goes to a new place where he has the golden opportunity of a clean slate, and what does he do? when assigned to do a presentation on his hero... he picks alan turing of all people. and when his brother later on tells him that he loves him no matter what, essentially giving him the It's Okay To Be Gay I Love You So Much And Always Will talk, still there is no denial on will's part here either.

will has NEVER, EVER denied being gay. he has NEVER tried to change that part of himself. he has ALWAYS stood tall and braved another day even when it was scary and hard. he has ALWAYS remained true to himself even though that has only ever made his life that much harder.

he said that sometimes he feels like a mistake for being so different from other people, but that being loved and accepted makes him feel like he isn't one at all and like he's better for being different and that gives him the courage to fight on.

literally what the fuck are you guys on about when you talk about will being self-hating for being gay. where is the canonical evidence for that? and more than that, why are you so keen on throwing away all of his acts of bravery and the sheer fucking strength of character that he's had since the very beginning? it would've been so much easier for him to conform, to be the "man" that everyone has always pushed him to be, but he doesn't ever do that. he stays true to himself no matter what. so, again, where the hell are these self-hating receipts?!

#will #will byers #byler #HE LITERALLY DID HIS PRESENTATION ON ALAN TURING IN THE FUCKING 80S WHEN HE HAD A CLEAN SLATE!!!!!! HE WAS A NOBODY AT LENORA!!!!!! #AND HE STILL DID IT ON ALAN FUCKING TURING!!! HE SAID THIS IS MY HERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #HE WAS BULLIED SINCE FUCKING BIRTH FOR BEING GAY AND HE STILL DOES NOT SHY AWAY FROM IT!!!! HE LOVES WHAT HE LOVES! #AND /THAT/ IS WILL BYERS' STRENGTH!!! STOP DENYING ITTTTTTT PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD #JUST BECAUSE A BITCH BE CRYING DON'T MEAN HE HATES HIMSELF BRO SHUT UPPPPPPPP #IT'S NOT SERIOUS BUT IT IS SERIOUS /TO ME/ #FBJHFBKJFBKJDB I JUST . GOD. GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! #gatekeeping will byers until ppl learn how 2 act right. srry not srry #he's literally so brave and ppl want to reduce that. WHY!!!!!!!! THAT'S WHAT MAKES HIM SO INTERESTING!!!! #HE WILL NOT FOLD! HE WILL NOT BE ANYONE BUT HIMSELF EVEN WHEN IT'S HARD IT'S LITERALLY SO FASCINATING N BRAVE #WHY ARE SOME PPL SO DESPERATE TO ERASE THT. BITING KICKING THRASHING TEARING THINGS UP W MY TEETH #mine

After watching episode 5, Cecil REALLY does care for Debbie and her well being, even if it’s in his own fucked up way. I love these two.

Honestly Rayla is equally 100% ride or die for Callum too.

That's so true I almost mentioned it in that post. They're so ridiculously feral for each other it's hilarious to watch. Callum's the legitimate "we ride AND die together" whereas Rayla is the "I will ride and die FOR you" sort of deal yknow?

Could be literally any situation, no matter how dangerous, and she's already decided she will die here. Does it ensure Callum lives? Then batter-up buckeroo we're going in swords blazing! Everyone cheer and clap for her human or she'll blow this whole place up. Kinda person who says "even if you hate me I'd still lose everything if it meant you were okay". She thinks they're in a tragic love story where she's always at risk of losing him but that's okay as long as it keeps him safe and happy like y'know Viren parallels, she'd risk losing her very self for him over and over. Except Callum would wait until the end of the world itself, and even beyond, and she wouldn't even have to ask.

The difference between them, really, is that Rayla will die for Callum on any given day. Callum will kill for Rayla on any given day. Something something matching sets

#tdp #the dragon prince #asks #rayllum #tdp callum #tdp rayla #talk #someone in the tags of that post said 'raylas self loathing works hard but callums devotion works even harder' and they own that post now #its theirs. they summed it up beautifully. they own it #'yes hes cringe but hes MY cringefail loserboy!!!!! get your OWN' #everyone else would say the 'hes a 10 but--' except for rayla. shes just 'hes a 10. hes just a 10 striaght-up' #he is not. he is so not a 10 i love him but hes not a 10 shes just so ill for him #so insane that the girl who has issues abt not being or being wanted by anyone or not good enough for ppl to stay/want her #proceeds to find maybe the 1 guy in the entire world who will choose her no matter WHAT #and even when SHE was the one who left & he was pissed he was still 100% sticking by her. hes staying #oops she showed him affection. now hes stuck forever! shame. welp guess thats how it goes! #and its partially bc of that she'd die for him. she needs him to b okay even if shes not there. mix of that loathing like #'he could still b happy without me so i need to ensure he lives so he can STAY happy at my own detriment. he means more than me' #girl if you died he would literally crumple into dust. fold in like cardboard in the rain. lay face-down in the sand & just die there #same w callum hes like 'i can hurt myself over & over for her if shes alive. if the danger is dead then she can live longer. i will live bu #tear myself apart so long she is safe' #bestie. if you reach the point of no return she will sacrifice herself to get the old you back WHAT THEN

I want to kiss the Sphinx so badly.

I can't help but wonder if she'd like mead, or flowers.

She evidently seems to adore herself in jewelry too, given all her pretty beads!

She is a Sphinx, but she is also still a woman, and I think she should like to be worshiped and adorned by a little partner.

She can just curl herself around them whilst they rest together on a big nest of blankets and pillows, all made of the softest fabrics, quietly, playfully shooting riddles back and forth to one another until they drift off.

#thinking about her so hard rn #i saw the first images of her model drop a while back and i just #fucking folded #sphinx #dragon's dogma 2 #i want to give her gifts so badly #big pretty lady...

I can't do much productively during the heat wave/health issue flare up/etc. like work on my games or anything where I have to sit at the computer/type for long periods of time, BUT.. I did passively sculpt a few tiny foods lol. I wanted to do one of my bigger usual sculptures, but those take so much more time and concentration, I thought something small just to keep my hands busy would be better.. close up photos look kind of weird and blurry from my camera settings or something, but overall they came out okay, especially in person.. Nearly the only reason I ever wanted to buy dolls as a kid was to get my hands on the miniature foods and plates and stuff that came with them, I've always just been obsessed with small versions of things like that, so.. why not make some! lol

#sculpture #ooops.. i could have posted this on the art blog but I forgor and do not feel like reuploading everything #into a new drafted post on a whole other blog.. not in this heat.. i have no patience lol #items are: tomato. asparagus. a four leaf clover (not food lol). some sort of folded bun or dumpling with meat inside (not based on #anything specific. I just wanted to fold a flat sheet of clay into a shape). pomegranate. cheese wheel. lemon slice. some sort of mushroom. #fish (not a real one. just made up. if it looks like any specific fish that'd be interesting). and fig. #I haven't been able to get many avocaodo pits to carve again. so sculpting. then is good for a tiny craft #WISH I COULD DO COSTUMES OR SOMETHING.. i have some pikced out. bundles of clothes laying on the floor of the closet #but GODS even before the heat wave it's just been so warm.. I know.. it's the summer. of course it's warm #but WHYYYyy............. what if it just snowed all year around and was awesome and beautiful and i was so cold and could wear 25 blankets #at all times.. what about THAT hmm?? .. the ideal.. #anyway.. my favorite is the pomegranate and the mushroom maybe #The fig is hard because in the pictures of figs I googled a lot of them have that sort of white powdery type of thing on the outside #that grapes and plums and stuff have sometimes and it's hard to convey that weird like.. sheen.. plus the purple with almost powdery blue #and little lighter specks plus streaks of light green and a little orangey on some of them. #It's okay in person I think but this doesnt show up as much in pictures. The cheese also looks betterin person than images. you can't tell #the slight shine in the pictures lol. but the pomegranates look cool and also photograph decent.. hmm #I should have made toast with an egg on it or something. that would be a nice addition #OH ALSO ASPARAGUS MY BELOVED.. though they look a little wonky. the cuticle pusher tool that I sculpt with in leiu of any actual sculpting #tools has a kind of triangle edge that was suite for the little leaf details of the asparagus so that was cool. its like..ALMOST right lol

cass at the end of the current arc in Birds of Prey (2023), probably

Cass: Hey, I'm back. Steph: Hey, Cass, where have you been— *she sees that Cass's costume is in tatters and she's covered in all sorts of injuries* Steph: Oh my god! What happened to you?! Cass: Went on a mission. Got hit. Steph: ...By who?? Cass: Big Barda. Steph: Steph: Why were you fighting— Cass: And Wonder Woman. Steph: Cass: Also some thing called Megaera. Steph: Cass, coughing up blood: Oh, that's not good. *she passes out* Steph: Steph: What the hell.

#cassandra cain #stephanie brown #it's okay she'll walk it off (probably) #it's funny because barda smacking cass was explained with “actually cass saw it coming and avoided the full brunt of the attack” #which barda noted was even more impressive #meanwhile diana hits cass hard enough to smash her through a tree and knock her out cold #but she just walks it off apparently because she got up in time to avoid being apprehended by the amazons #i wonder how many more injuries cass will sustain in this story #i mean she's about to throw hands with an evil god that folded wonder woman like an omelet #so i'm going to bet that she's going to take at least another big hit before this adventure's over

@purplemageddom love your guy... the ringo

(Hope you don't mind fanart! Sorry if I got some parts wrong)

Beware silly doodles under cut I warned you

The important question... can they cowboy

#purplemageddom #yart #I love drawing other people's designs... it always makes me notice things I never did before #like the little 'band' part attaching ringo's head to the body #and just how good this outfit is. the strings acting as a border between the coat and the shirt making a x at the back #I failed so bad trying to draw the clothing properly 😭 folds are hard man #hope I did the design justice #I didn't mean to finish this on christmas but #happy coincidence I suppose! merry Christmas #ringo the boy ever

Excuse me???? Where is Boba?? Why isn't he here watching his nephew be sworn in as an actual Mandalorian? Did the invitation get lost in the sand?

#this is specifically for me #but i was just HOPING I'd see Boba in the far back #maybe just leaning against a pillar with his arms folded and shadowed by.... well the pillar I suppose #thats extremely specific but I felt it in my heart he should've been there #even though I know the guy prolly couldn't care less about Mandalore and has his own shit to look after #no but honestly that man prolly laughed so hard when he heard about what happened to the darksaber #star wars #star wars series #the mandalorian #din djarin #boba fett #the mandalorian spoilers #the mandalorian season 3 spoilers #the mandalorian season 3 #spoilers

woah just found u thru skunkrs twt and i really love your art!!! how'd you get so good at drawing larger body types?

i keep retyping this but honestly i do not know lol. i guess the best advice i really have for learning to draw any body type really is thinking about it even outside the context of studying for art. like if you see an ad or a picture with people who you'd suck at drawing, take note of how they actually look and think about how you'd translate how they look into your style and then draw them. for a majority of my life i was reaaaallly really bad at drawing fat people, horrible at it. i wanted to change that so i tried reading morpho and doing studies, but it really didn't begin to work until i started taking note outside the context of "ok its time to study this" to inform how i drew.

#kale #but also that might not work for everyone so read morpho: fat and skin folds still #alsox2 this isnt to say morpho n studies didnt help i just found it hard to apply what id learned til i started thinking about it like this

I know I’m talking to an empty theater here but the writing on that episode of Lark Rise to Candleford where Robert loses his tools (and so the means to feed his family) and is facing destitution and then runs into the young guy who’s in love with his daughter and then uses the moment not to take out all his angst and anger on Fisher but to ask him if he’s ready for all that marriage and staying and giving up his life on the road actually means thus forcing Fisher to admit that he isn’t ready for it—-

!!!!!!!!

#and it’s just so brilliant because we’ve watched Robert suffer so deeply the entire episode #because of how crushing the weight of parental responsibility and poverty can be!!! #and he sees this guy that loves his daughter but has no understanding of the life that that love could and should and will lead him to #if he chooses to stay. this guy who’s just living in the moment and in the feelings of the moment but whose love is not strong enough #to endure the sacrifice that would be required of. well. ordinary married life in a small town! #and Robert uses all his wisdom to force him to admit that he’s not ready for it and doesn’t want it #and then it gets even more brilliant! because after Fisher leaves and Laura is heartbroken and angry #he presents her with the same reality/question but from HER side #her being like ‘how dare you make him not stay’ and Robert being like ‘and did I force you not to go with him?’ #‘were YOU ready to give up your whole life and world for him? to make it work? or did you want your life AND him’ #it’s the have your cake and eat it too truth in this case. their lives didn’t fit together and their love was real in a way #but not real enough to weld their different lives together without both of them hating each other in the end #idk it’s just BRILLIANT and I love it so much #because it unfolds so truthfully and all of the pieces of the story fold into each other so that it a) hits exactly as hard as it should #and b) reveals the truths of things so clearly and so accurately #Robert is so annoying so much of the time but he was a fatherly icon in this ep #lark rise to candleford

peko! based on a stage play photo (under the cut)

i get insecure about making people annoyed when my posts are too long vertically lol so sorry for this being under the cut. but yeah. peko's actress is very pretty <3<3<3

#i love peko a lot #coloured her with a different hair marker than usual (have 3 grey pens- 2 dark (used on her clothes) and 1 super light (used on her hair - #-today) and idk. the actual marker is way too light but i think the pencil shading made it a bit more accurate! i think i will probably - #-continue to use the darker pen for her hair that i usually use even though its further from canon just because i like it more idk why #anyway. i love peko #<3<3 #super danganronpa 2 #sdr2 #danganronpa #peko pekoyama #my art #sdr2 the stage #also im super proud of the clothing folds here! i find that super hard and ik its copied from the reference but i usually just skip it so #im super proud of myself for trying :)
