#I was doing good for awhile

[dana-chan-the-control-brain]

@i-like-pink-lolzz Doing mass reblogs of my silly little IZ doodles means more to me than you know.

#Like it speaks so much to me #You think my self-confidence in my 30s would be better #but it's really not #I was doing good for awhile #then something bad socially happened that caused me to backslide #but something like this makes me remember that people do like me #even strangers who have never met me #and that my inherit worth isn't tied to my art #and there is a point to doing it all #because sometimes I just get in moods where I see every single action or reaction as a step leading into my grave #Like we all die #and I know life is what you make of it of course #but at the same time why #you could easily spend the mortal realm doing nothing at all #I can blame the winter for my deeply pessimistic mood #and I hope I'll stop falling into parasocial relationships soon. #disclaimer: Im the parasite btw and I'm trying to check that behavior #anyways ignore these tags #I'm doing okay #Just need a shower and some choco milk #personal

there's no way the bathroom at peppino's pizza is actually that big but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . hey ummm anyway.... i care them...... anyway there's a lil ramble on my take on fake pep's like psyche or whatever in tags on the og post if ur into that kinda thing :y

hey! it's a series! fake peppino world tour: [noise] [noisette] [peppino]<- u are here [gustavo] [gerome] [noisette again]

#ramble after realtags yeag. shoutout to serrangelic btw suggesting the silhouettes thing bc i would have Died otherwise #pizza tower #peppino spaghetti #fake peppino #gustavo and brick #arting #pizzaposting #so anyway i think fake peppino has like. a general awareness that he is supposed to Be Peppino and that he was Made to do that #and likewise he does generally try to...do that. the thing he does NOT realize is hes like really goddamn bad at it #not to be mean but like...c'mon. they are pretty distinctly different kinds of guys even beyond the physiology yknow. #he's neither on-brand nor fooling anyone dsjdsjjkgfsd. BUT! #since the rest of the cast generally likes him [at least as I play it] he thinks hes doing just fine #he's like 'oh they r happy with me so i must be getting a good grade in being peppino :)' #so getting told that 'yeah you actually really suck at that but that was never the reason people liked you' #and told that by og model peppino no less--yknow THE guy he's supposed to be living up to #who's already a bit intimidating for that and who ALSO totally wrecked him TWICE in the tower #making him acutely familiar with just how formidable the guy is and how much there IS to live up to.... #it's a Moment for sure. not really a sad or hurt one though. just... contemplative. #thinking abt people liking him for being the guy he's already naturally been being even though that guy is Not Peppino #i don't think he's gonna be super broken up about realizing he has a bad grade in peppino given everything else hes got now #nor do i really think he cares enough to go like reinvent himself or whatever after the fact #he seems to b pretty clearly having fun with it already so i think he just keeps doing that #and in some cases he still has the pre-installed peppino traits/instincts like to cooka da pizza. and that's fine #is this projection. yes. but if youve been following me awhile you know most of my character writing is ghdhfdgf #gonna kinda expand on all this in the gerome one which is...one after next. itll be a bit but man. #anyway peppino will never admit to anyone and especially not himself that he's gotten a little attached to the guy. hee hoo #pep tends to be kinda surly but he certainly has his ways of showing he cares. all of which are on display here #''that thing is not my son'' says man currently watching thing's antics with the 'bemused dad' arms crossed pose. yeah ok buddy. #gus is totally onto him already but hes not gonna say anything. #if u read all this ur prize is not having to go decode fp's rot13. his lines are ''meant to be you...?'' and ''wrong question.''

the only downside of my personal art and self portraits being semi well received (thank u by the way) is that on occasion some wah wah transphobe blog will get ahold of it and sing my praises of Wombmanhood and Femininity. which is so fucking funny, because terfs harassed me relentlessly about the fact that I pursued a breast reduction (butchering my body, reducing my femininity, being brainwashed, and so on) only to sing praises to my current body as The Natural Female Form. very, very funny. I normally do portraits of my body, for the extremely, *extremely* obvious reasons, which include but are not limited to: I have infinite reference images of my own body. but I think I would like to expand, in the future

#the thing is that for this art style I really do need to work from life. #I think some life drawing would be good for me (IN GENERAL) but sometimes people ask me about commissioning a floral portrait #of themselves in the same style that I draw my own body. and I think I want to make some openings for a few of those when I have time #(I don't. kms) #but I've looked around and 67% of my returning audience is trans. (hey what's up.) and I think for people who sign off on me posting #their commissioned pieces it would be good to change up the kind of art I post #once in awhile. like people are surprisingly down to offer reference images of their literal body #which I'm always surprised by and sometimes has their watermark on it from their Business (you are stronger than I) #sergle.txt

[chloesimaginationthings]

Not a question, but I just saw your Barbie piece with the part 6 girls, and It's so fucking gorgeous, everything you draw is just *chef's kiss* fantastic!

Sometimes to truly heal is to draw hot women in pretty outfits 🩷

#ask reply #TYSM btw I’ve been having sm fun drawing in pink etc #it’s also been awhile since I’ve drawn the girls in cute outfits #I should do it more often it’s good for my health

I wanted to adapt one of my favorite scenes from the Iliad into a comic ✨ the dialogue borrows and takes direction/inspiration from various translations, although pacing, general flow of the words, and page space got the final say in what I ultimately ended up deciding to letter.

(Iliad, book 20, trans. fagles)

(same scene, trans. lattimore)

#the iliad #achilles #aeneas #someday im going to do Achilles Committing Murder and also probably the night raid scene #i did lay outs for the night raid scene awhile ago i just havent been able to summon the motivation to draw it RIP #aeneas becoming taller than achilles is a deliberate thing i chose to do the gods towering over people is fun and i am thinking about how #narratively weird aeneas gets like goddamn my good man #drawing tag #komiks tag #it's all greek to me #it’s all greek to me

actually in hindsight why did Rick repeatedly have Piper solve all the ghost problems on the Argo II when. Hazel was right there. A daughter of Pluto. who by all logic should be able to control ghosts even a little bit. like, we know she has at least some of those types of powers. she just never gets to actually practically use them. ever. and then when there are zombies Hazel once again. does not get to use her powers about it. what.

#pjo #riordanverse #hazel levesque #does hazel EVER use necromancy powers? besides *maybe* a little bit when working for gaea to raise giants? #though that was pretty explicitly mostly geokinesis #where is hazel's necromancy cmon #but like. ''oh no people are getting possessed. i know! PIPER! FIX THE PROBLEM WITH YOUR CHARMSPEAK'' #''rather than oh i dont know HAZEL. THE PERSON WITH GHOST POWERS DIRECTLY NEXT TO ME.'' #heck Hazel is very familiar with people being possessed. her mother was for. awhile. #why not just have hazel go ''hm yup. that's possession if i've ever seen it. hold on i've got this'' and then she uses pluto powers #you cant even use the excuse ''oh but she wouldn't know how to-'' #she's been hanging out with her brother Nico ''Ghost King'' di Angelo for what. eight? ten months? something like that? #and one of her major things is that she's pretty good at picking things up quickly and has highly honed her powers #you're telling me nico never told her ''btw just in case: if you ever need to exorcise a ghost from someone just idk smack 'em'' #like why is the exorcising ghosts piper's job #and why with the zombie apocalypse was it like ''oh no we can't do anything until apollo comes over to help us or whatever'' #''if only we had a CENTURION WITH NECROMANCY POWERS. like a CHILD OF PLUTO OR SOMETHING'' #''WHOSE BROTHER VERY FAMOUSLY GOT A ZOMBIE AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT'' #and its like. yes hazel does ultimately play a significant role in stopping the zombie problem #but functionally COMPLETELY UNRELATED TO HER POWERS?

I just want to make a small update here-- this blog is officially on hiatus when it comes to new posts. I'll mainly be focusing on cleaning up and making some edits to a few older posts when I do post here, or answering questions in the askbox that don't require full-on meta analysis posts, or sometimes just reblogging my older posts every now and then.

This is mainly because I've got quite a few projects I'm working on right now, as well as being currently quite stressed in my day-to-day life. I will come back to writing new posts here in a few months or so, but probably a bit more sporadically for now.

#update #i've already been quite inactive here for awhile #but i wanted to make it a little more official #i do intend on getting through the entire askbox eventually #but that may take quite awhile #i'd collab but tbh i'm just generally not very good at that sort of thing & prefer to work alone + with feedback

i feel like i get literal psychic damage when i think about capitalism too long

#i’ve been trying to figure out how to describe it for awhile #started my second relisten of taz balance #and that’s probably why i finally was able to put it in words! #psychic damage #capitalism #planned obsolescence #the fact that it’s actively hostile to human life #blue rambles #corporate speak #which i do not understand how to formulate at all #i mean im sure i’ll learn i’ll have to #but i’ve loved working in small shops #the vibes are immaculate #we sells strange and fun things! #and they’re all good quality #no amazon bullshit #no worries about constantly getting things that are meant to break #sidebar that so many adults think showing positive emotions is like immature or something #pls show me ur alive!! #i hate that is ‘weird’ to be genuine #i hate that the norm is to kill your soul

I'm a sucker for the idea that after Chuck is defeated and once Michael and Adam are reunited Michael just leans heavily into the protective trope, bordering on possessive.

Of course they have their initial rush of emotions when they first reunite but slowly about a week after everything is resolved Adam starts noticing that Michael insists that they don't leave the house which, yeah that's strange, but Michael never been one for interacting with any other human aside from Adam, so he shrugs it off.

But he also notices that Michael's been getting touchier lately, Michael's never really been big on physical touch and yet Adam finds that whenever he's making something in the kitchen Michael's always right there hugging him from behind. Or when they're watching something late at night on the couch, they no longer sit just next to each other like they usually would, now their cuddling in every cuddling position that was ever made. When Adam goes to bed, Michael joins him instead of his usual 'doing other things until Adam wakes up' thing. Now he crawls into bed with Adam and holds him tightly, as if he was afraid that if he let go then Adam would fall out of his grasp forever.

Adam hasn't felt this kind of warmth since he was a kid and would crawl into bed with his mother when he had a nightmare, so he accepts it and rolls over to hold onto Michael as well. Michael shifts and pulls Adam's legs up by the thigh and around his waist, willing to be even closer to his Adam. He wraps his arms all around the humans torso and tucks his face into Adams neck breathing in his pulse, knowing that he's alive and protected by Michael. As Adam falls into unconsciousness Michael opens his eyes to watch the man breath deep and slow breaths into the silence of the night. Adam looks so peaceful, so innocent and...so breakable. His mind wanders into thinking about loosing Adam again, having him be taken away somewhere Michael can't reach, having the skin of his flesh be tortured and filled with suffering pain when he shouldn't ever have to suffer, having him be killed

Without realizing, Michael tightens his grip around Adam.

Silently, Michael promises to never allow anyone, no matter how powerful, to take his Adam away ever again. He brushes the hairs that fall onto Adam's face back and places his lips on his forehead in a gentle kiss. How Michel wishes to keep him here like this, to bask in their shared love together until everything ends.

But alas, Adam does eventually have to wake up. That little job of his makes him so happy, and that's all Michael now wants, Adam's happiness.

dazai approaches life with the idea that wanting anything is pointless because it will be taken from you

chuuya keeps losing everyone important to him and yet he keeps going, he finds new friends, he keeps living as his own person

in a way, chuuya's life is like a confirmation of dazai's bias; any time he has something good, someone important to him, a connection, it gets taken away from him

and yet unlike dazai, he doesn't give in to despair

and i think that might be one of the reasons dazai finds him interesting enough to care about. because chuuya actively challenges the way he sees life itself just by doing his own thing. he doesn't go out of his way to talk dazai into seeing value in life, and i think this is the sort of language dazai has an easier time speaking

#just an observation. i could be wrong. i could be projecting. feel free to disagree #also i think this is why dazai thinks he hates chuuya #bc i mean. even if he's interesting. it's still annoying as hell when someone challenges your world view constantly #especially when they're not doing it on purpose. but at the same time this is smth that's good for dazai i think #and i think that now post oda's death and as an adult who's been away from the mafia for awhile. he might know it too #i also think knowing atsushi who also challenges his world view - by wanting to cling to life no matter what - may also help #like. help him figure things out and sort his thoughts on the matter. seeing atsushi have a good impact on him - #- and realizing chuuya had a good impact on him too even if he didn't realize it at the time. maybe. #but now I'm just rambling and speculating lol ignore me 👍

A silly guide on how I draw normal Riolu vs My sona

#Riolu #Doodle #The Mod #Do not use my sona thanks #Just wanted to give a silly doodle while I ramble #I admittedly made the last few daily pieces as basically a progression of my eyes for the last ~1.5 years #Keeping up with everything became harder because of my eyes #I only talked about this briefly on my main twitter #I was diagnosed with keratoconus #My eyes got worse over time #so I was squinting constantly and would get headaches trying to focus my eyes to draw or play half the games I did #it sucked. I slept a lot to get rid of pain and I felt like I couldnt do my normal work so it kept piling #I had surgery + got RGP Contacts to help me see normally this year tho! #So I can finally get my shit together and have been slowly trying to get everything going/sorted #Just to like... explain where I disappeared to #Ofc Its hard to do anything art or reading without my contacts in #tbh i didnt even know until December lol so it went for awhile and thought my prescription went from good to shit #so i took a minor break from social media to keep where my eyes used online to mainly discord
