Part One

Co-(god)parenting a teenager with your (maybe?) ex can be quite the adventure

(O.W.L.s might be easier if you'd had the examiners as tutors since you were old enough to talk, Sirius)

So, for the mirror pattern, I'd been goofing around with attempting marbling with India ink and water, I made an awful mess but I had fun and the swirly pattern looks interesting

I'm gonna be honest, all I've been able to think about in the last few days is the height accurate to their actual species au.

I've got so many illegible sketches it's crazy. In the last 4 days I have made like 13 doodle pages of this au. (I've decided to call it the Roadtrip!Sonic AU by the way)

So, I might be late with posting today. So have some of the partly legible sections of my doodles in the last 4 days.

If you haven't been keeping up with F1 Academy's secondary venture, Discover Your Drive, this weekend was the first round of the Champions of the Future Academy, a karting series with three categories (mini 60, OK-N Junior and OK-N Senior).

In two of them, Junior & Senior, female drivers resulted as winners. Ella Hakkinen (yes, that Hakkinen) won -after a penalty for the original winning driver- in Junior and Luna Fluxa (Mercedes Junior Driver) won in the Senior category AND she is leading the championship.

It's a great weekend for the future of motorsport!

I always find it funny when media that set ups a "hedonic prison" for the protagonists - a seeming-utopia that is beneath its surface perfection shallow & meaningless - normally positions 'reality' as the escape from that, like if you just Lived In The Real you would have agency and meaning in life. But you actually, ya know, live in the real world - and it doesn't give you either of those. Almost everyone lacks much agency, and life is meaningless and its a constant struggle to generate meaning in that void; and the ways you could gain agency & meaning (resources, social validation, etc) are generally more readily available in the hedonic prison than outside of it. The act of narrative-as-narrative does all the heavy lifting to sell the superiority of the real.

I think you can tell when something is directly interested in the prison, exploring the dynamics of that prison is its reason for being, versus works that are just using it as a plot device, via this friction. With the latter its rare for a compelling case to be made.

even when you're hanging between the rails,

always remember that behind every door

someone is waiting for you with hope and wine.

hawkeye pierce is such an odysseus. like his entire thing is that he WANTS TO GO HOME. my man just wants to go home to see his loved ones but can’t because the powers that be are making it impossible (hawkeye’s is the us military and odysseus’s is the gods) by throwing just off-the-wall obstacles at him. and along the way he just keeps losing everybody.

not to mention he is a clever trickster who totally would’ve played the “nobody” joke on frank if he could’ve found a way.

also odysseus was a reluctant draftee into the trojan war too (he tried to get out of it by feigning madness through salting the earth of his farmlands).

#james joyce once called odysseus the only all-round character in literature #which I would add hamlet to that list but he is sort of odysseus adjacent I suppose #mash #hawkeye pierce #I guess that makes his dad his penelope #which is sweet #does hawkeye go home dressed as a homeless man and kill a bunch of his dad’s suitors? #idk #never forget when hawkeye claimed he played hamlet in college and sydney was just like thats interesting #I can go anywhere I want anywhere I want just not home

May I suggest a prompt of sorts? Sun and moon but they've gotten a virus or bug in their system that throws them out of balance. Sun in the dark, but not long enough to really know what to do. Moon switching in during the day but his sensors are too sensitive to cleanly transition to the front.

Basically a dive into how they both are forced to inhabit the same body and how the lines between them could get blurred. How much of them is Moon? How much is Sun? Is it their programming that changes a single AI's behaviour and they are just one? Are they two completely separate AIs struggling with new situations they were never built to handle?

Do they care for each each other and try to make the sudden transitions easier? Do they fight thinking the other is trying to take over their time? Does it hurt to be in each other's roles (possibly understimulation and loneliness for Sun, and overstimulation and Too Muchtm for Moon)? If they're one AI that alters behaviour based on lighting, does the division between Sun and Moon begin to fade? Change? Do some of their traits or behaviours switch? How aware of it could they be?

(AKA I want to study them I think they are both so very very cool but I haven't the time to write a whole story about the possible struggle of identity they could face. Someday perhaps!)

Immediate swing around to a character that’s far less obscure and also technically existed when I was last active in the fandom, though I never drew her back then (I doodled everyone in the LoLK cast at least once except for her and Clownpiece). Anyway, I’ve been fascinated with the fact that she purified herself into being nothing more than her grudge so much that almost her entire identity was wiped away, so I wanted to draw her covering her face with a fan with a kitsune on it (used a couple ukiyo-e as reference for drawing that), looked up Chinese fans to make sure I was thinking of the right thing (this kind is called tuanshan), and found out they were historically used in a wedding tradition (queshan) where the bride covers her face with a fan and then reveals it at the end, so I was like. Well, that’s appropriate given that Junko is the Touhou character most likely to have been married at some point, so it all worked out nicely. But then I figured I should probably draw her face anyway, if only to practice giving Touhou characters faces that fit my style and aren’t all the same, and went a bit silly with it lol(k)
