#aos best of 2020

[drunkonimagination]

sometimes i ask myself what it would be like to love so selflessly and intensely to the point that you can't help finding peace and solace at the simple thought of the happiness of the one you love even when that happiness doesn't include you and represents the most intimate reason of your own unhappiness and then i remember this panel from blue flag:

#that panel has been haunting my dreams since 2020 #blue flag #ao no flag #touma mita #taichi ichinose #i want to re-read it so bad #but i barely have time to draw 😭 #in june. big ao no flag re-read. new thoughtful posts about it. and new art of TOUMA MITA BEST MAN OUT THERE !!!! #(the fact that ive never drawn him......pretty homophobic of me)

So, you get asked about PK and WL a lot, in part because you're realistic about them being nuanced. I've rarely ever seen folks ask you about the Radiance, though, even you've mentioned you give her the same treatment. So, you got any headcanons, heartcanons, and gutcanons for her? Feel free to do as many as you want!

Okay so I long forgot the headcanon, heartcanon, gutcanon ask template because I've been chewing on this since [checks date] September 5th 2020, so instead you get a long ramble on the Radiance vs individual hcs for her since I don't really talk about her as much as I do the pale fam

Radiance...hm. She's a very complex character who frightens me on some personal levels, but I really am quite fond of her reguardless, because part of what scares me about her is how closely her anger mirrors my own (and that of my immidiate family). She reminds me very much of the aspects of myself and a few choice individuals in my blood relations that I do my best to avoid, rather than have a delight of a time pointing and laughing at, like I do with the flaws of myself I see in the Pale King. Except Radiance doesn't just have those flaws, she's also got the added Christian crusader imagery that decrees the death of anyone who opposes her that also reminds me quite a bit about certain things in my life I'd very much rather go without (I was raised Muslim. I'm sure you can connect the dots). So there is a level of discomfort there that keeps me from engaging with her character on the same level that I do with Hollow and the Pale King, which is something that I am sure many Radiance fans feel in turn about PK himself. No judgement there.

But that's personal, so I'm not going to get into it. Just putting a note of it here because it does very much influence how I write her.

The Radiance is someone who is, at her core, very very lonely, and is also fundamentally afraid of being lonely. She is Grimm's twin in my headcanon (or, as much as one can be a twin when you were both divinely spawned from the same event), but Grimm is also her opposite, and so he never really did much other than highlight how deeply different she was from the only ever person that she knew. They were spawned in a place outside of Hallownest, in the creation of the Dream Realm where there was nothing around them but other hungry Higher Beings grasping for power, and that in turn did little other than prove to her that the whole world was against her and that the only way that she could persist was to eliminate all threats to herself before they had a chance to attack her first (Grimm, on the other hand, was fascinated by death and the play of power among power-hungry gods, and was much more inclined to observe until they clearly became a threat to him, ao that he could learn from them first. This difference is something that lead to the schism between the realms).

She is an extremely emotional person, acting on raw passion before all else- but that's because being rawly emotional never let her down in the past. How could it, when her fury burned with the force of a thousand stars, and incinerated all that dared threaten her? And how could she be anything but furious, when she had nothing but proof that the whole world conspired against her, and it was her burning rage that beat back the darkness of the cold, unfeeling Void, the one thing that could destroy her and her sibling? She was not always angry- more often than not, she was lonely, wanting nothing more than something to care for and protect- but anger served her well and so it became her first line of defense against anything that threatened her, and she was always right because nothing bad had ever come of her in the past.

(This is because she killed most things that she feared before they had a chance to move against her. The utter destruction of the Void Civilization was one such occurrence, happening after she had settled in Hallownest, created the moths, and deemed those who worshiped the dark below as a threat to both her and her newborn children.) I also believe that the Moths were created just before or right after the schism between her and Grimm, her barely-younger brother; because if he would not listen to her and allow her to care for him and be her family, then she would simply make one of her own, a family that she could dote on and adore and had no choice but to love her. And while she very much drove that schism, it was still a betrayal that stung her to the very core. He was her brother! He was supposed to agree with her, to love her and listen to her! She only ever tried to protect him, so what does it mean for him to defy her? That he doesn't actually love her after all, and that if she truly desires a family of her own, she must make it herself. One that will actually love her. One that will not defy her.

So, to recap: the Radiance is a fundamentally lonely person. But she is also fundamentally a very, very fearful person, to the point of overwhelming paranoia. And she grew up in an environment where this paranoia was not only unchecked, but encouraged.

This is what lead to her overcontrolling nature- because when she was able to control everything, she was able to see all of the problems before they became too hard to control, and thus eliminate them from the very start. I headcanon that the bugs of Hallownest had no free will under her control, but it wasn't the same as the malicious infection that we see in-game; it was genuinely because she cared, to the point where she had to look through a thousand eyes and ten thousand minds in order to nurture her kingdom the way she thought was best. She didn't kill all of the Void Civilization- the beetles persisted, as we saw- but she had to control them anyways, to wipe their minds of what she did and to prevent dissent. The Moths had a level of freedom that the others did not, but this was only because she created them and placed them first before all other bugs, and so thought that they would never have a reason to dissent against her. Why care for freedom when you can have security, after all? She never once in a million years thought that they would betray her for the Pale King, because she never once in a million years ever thought that anyone could ever want something like freedom in exchange for an uncertain, self-made future. It's too risky, too dangerous. Too lonely.

(This is also why I headcanon that the moth civilization collapsed after they abandoned Radi- they had been coddled for so long that they had no notion of independence, and thus could not survive on their own in a civilization that made itself with free will. This absolutely does not excuse PK of potentially being involved in their downfall, because I do think he played a huge part in it, but it does account for their diminishing numbers without any indication of physical genocide. I've seen some think that they were hit the first and the hardest by the Infection but I don't believe that Radi, even with her vengeful qualities, would have done that-or if she did, then Seer made no mention of it, likely because of her tribe's guilt about bringing back the Radiance even if it isn't their fault.)

(Part of this headcanon also ties into another hc I have about Radi, which was that she was very involved in her rule and would answer to almost every prayer- including ones that involved illness or injury. If you prayed for the sickness to go away, then she would answer the call and abolish it. The Moths got first treatment, because they as her children knew exactly how to call her, but this also meant that when they switched to PK's rule where he advocated for independence and self-sufficiency based on problem solving, they suffered far more than the others who had to reply on learning their own medical care when Radi was too busy to hear their prayers)

That's not to say that Radiance was a bad ruler by any means, but we do know that she and PK are opposites, and we have records of how distant he was from his civilization, which indicates that Radiance was deeply involved by contrast- likely suffocatingly so. That's part of why I love to play with her and Grimm being siblings, to be honest, because he acts as a sort of neutral zone between the Pale King's style of ruling (by almost zero personal involvement) compared to the Radiance's obsessive control- he holds power over those under his command, but he also relinquishes that power when they fight back, and makes the break from the trope relatively stressless by wiping their memories and leaving them with a defensive charm (if Carefree Melody is any indicator). Likely this is because Grimm is a scavenger-god who has seen how many a kingdom has fallen to ruin, but I can also imagine how an exposure to the Radiance would have encouraged him to give his people more freedom of will while also continuing to engage with them at all, which the Pale King didn't do. But that's a Grimm tangent right there- the point is that I do believe the Radiance did everything out of a love for her people.

The problem is just that emotions are her fatal flaw, and when they don't suffocate, they burn. We know that she isn't just pure emotion made manifest- she's an insidious manipulator, and quite skilled at it, too. She didn't win over the Traitor Lord or break the minds of the bugs of Hallownest through sheer force alone (though I'm sure she had to in some cases...like the Hollow Knight). But everytime she makes a bad decision, it's because her emotions got the best of her. She is the inverse to the Pale King, whose fatal flaw was that his logic blinded him to the emotions he felt towards his children, and to realizing the Vessel Plan was doomed until it is far too late. She got herself to where she was by blazing forth in a fit of fury, and turning the hurricane of her betrayal into a punishment that the entirety of Hallownest got caught up in, whether they were innocent or not. She wormed her way into the minds of those who listened to her and brutally slaughtered the rest. She might have had some justification at first, when she was clawing desperately out of the dark of near-death, but that justification was snuffed out quick. Her anger is brutal, grotesque, vengeful, and all-encompassing. She hates you, the player character, Little Ghost, for what you represent and who you are, and she hunts you relentlessly, using the corpses of the friends and siblings she's killed to try to murder you. But it's not just self-defense: it's hatred. When Ghost challenges her in the Dream Realm, she didn't have to answer, but she did. Because she is fury incarnate, and she will not suffer the mockery of the void-tainted scion of her enemy.

She might have been a benevolent goddess once, but no longer. She's beautiful and majestic. She's also a genocidal monster. Her actions have justification, for they were self-defense and retribution for her betrayal- until she began to destroy the lives of innocents in her hunger for power. She's a complex character, a sympathetic one even, and is even more terrible for it.

So yeah, she scares me, even though I love her. But can you really blame me?

Cym. Pandora Glade 'Woodside Pink' AM/AOS

So last weekend I participated in the gold coast cymbidium society auction and I won 3 orchids! This division was entered by Pierre Pujol, whose mother plant was Awarded Best Cymbidium at the 2020 Pacific Orchid Exposition Show. It’s in spike, so I hope that it blooms in March or April. Posted below is a picture shot by Pierre himself, for reference:

[a-swiss-and-a-spaniard]

Hi darling! For the ask game 2, 8, 9, 15, 24 💜💜

Hi Toni, thanks for the numbers! 💙

2. which player would you think you'd be best friends with upon first meeting?

I think Domi. I'm an introvert, so it takes me a while to warm up to people, but he seems easy to talk to. He's smart and loves nature and I'm a biologist, so we could gush about random animal facts. I bet he would be an amazing hiking buddy as well! I was also a fan of boybands at one point, so he can blast his playlist during car rides and I would actually sing along. Plus I could learn some Austrian slang from him, which would be fun

8. which tournament has the prettiest trophy?

I prefer simple, clean designs, so my favorites are Shanghai, Paris and Miami

But I’m also in love with the pretty colors of the Los Cabos trophy

And it always cracks me up to think about it in Meddy's trophy jail lol

9. who's your favourite retired player?

I mean, I MEAN… don't know if you've heard about this Swiss man(? He had a quite prolific career; won a few Masters, got 20 Grand Slams, and went on to play his last match alongside his biggest rival. He appears smooth and suave, but he's a goofball at heart and turns into a giggling mess whenever Rafa is around(? Yeah, he'll always be my all time favorite

15. a new player you would want to succeed in the future?

I guess Ben Shelton seems nice(? Tbh I haven't followed him much but he gives off puppy energy (Fisher called him a border collie and I think that's accurate).

I haven't really gotten attached to new players other than Andrey, but he's not exactly 'new’ anymore lol

24. favourite match outfit?

Depends on the player, of course, but I will always love Rafa's sleeveless shirts. Particularly the bright pink one form AO 2020 <3

!!! But also: all-black looks 🔥

#ask game #tennis #yes I added pictures for reference #yes it was mostly an excuse to look through my tennis album lol

[almaadst]

for the artist ask: 2, 4, 5, 8, 14, and 17~ :3c

@andeborg Billy my sweetheart! <3 Thank you for your questions and patience 🙏(But like they say "save best for the last" <3) Although most of the questions I already answered here: 2, 5, 8, 17) but here are the other two:

4. Favourite things to draw?

That's a tough question actually! I think it will be female faces and female bodies overall and long hair 'cos I love making them nice shapes '3'

14. How has your art changed over the years?

That will be fun to answer! I have to open the folder with my old art and I will show you! '3'

<2010 I started my drawing journay with drawing animals like lions/wolfs I tried imitating "Lion King" style but I do not have any artwork from this time ;; But I have artworks from 2012 which I think I was quite good already (*￣∀￣) Here it is, my lioness OCs: Xena and Hexa! (daughter and mother)

2011 (left) - I started drawing humans (manga style) after watching Pandora Hearts anime. Anatomy was really wanky - I clearly didn't know how to properly draw the shoulder/chest area, the clothes design was "edgy" 'cos I was 14yo lol, and of course, I was hiding hands 'cos I couldn't draw them all! And I didn't have a graphic tablet back then so all was traditionally made with crayons. I mostly drew character designs and my OCs, here is Alex.

2012 (right) - I already got a tablet and I was making digital drawings. I had the courage to try drawing hands, but the whole silhouette was really long and thin, and I was afraid to put more decent shadows but I started doing a little background.

2013 (left) -I was making more complex pieces but I didn't know shit about perspective and composition lol

2014 (right) - It was definitely a "gap year" in my art life I didn't draw much back then but definitely, I started using photo references to improve my artwork

2015 - 100% art block year ;; I stopped drawing, using DeviantArt, and just quit for a while

2016 - I was drawing again thanks to Metal Gear Solid games - It was the first time I was so involved to draw fan art (before I was worried that "my ugly art style will ruin my beloved characters" lol) and I made Tumblr account for it!

2017 (left) - Was completely dedicated to Ao no Exorcist manga, it help me make art again and enjoy M&A again but I stopped drawing my OCs thou I practiced more while doing study characters, sketching more, teaching myself from YouTube, etc

2018 (right) - Here I was switching to My Hero Academia fandom but also I was making fan arts/ crossovers for different shows and I was improving my coloring/shading style etc and started making commissions

2019 (left) - Burnout year again;; I was drawing VERY little and mostly it was sketches for series I watched

2020 (right) - I decided to come back to drawing and open commission - I was doing mostly My Hero academia commissions and thanks to that I seriously started working on my background in artwork and my skill overall and I think it was a time when I realized that drawing come very easy that I had a certain level/skill which made less frustration about how and what I drew

2021 > I mostly focused on commission and improving my artwork!

That was a long post but so fun to make and reflect a little bit! Thank you to all people who sent me asks! I was really supries how many itwas (that's why I took me so long! ;;) I will do it againg in the future for sure! but maybe with questions made by me? who knows! (*￣∀￣)

Love you all, Alex 🌷

20 questions for fic writers

Thank you babe for the tag <3

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

I have 62 works posted on ao3 (although some are anonymous and some are not fics but original stuff).

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

131,372 words.

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Many, lol. The fandom I have the most fics posted is Sherlock (BBC). The second is Good Omens (and also the fandom I have the most WIPs for). I have also posted fics for the MCU, Star Trek (TOS, AOS, TNG, DSC), the TAZ podcast, DC/Batman, OFMD and, most recently, X-Men.

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

#1 in all statistics, by a wide margin of difference, is Gotham Online, my DC/Batman social media AU fic, with 3,033 kudos. Second, with 479 kudos is Epiphanies at dawn, my OFMD Izzy/Stede Steddyhands fic; I'm relaly proud of this one actually. Then there's Surprising and unexpected (Star Trek), then There's No Truth Like Home (Sherlock) and fifth is Seeking Knowledge (Good Omens).

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Yes! I like replying to comments.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Um, none? I don't write much angst, and when I do it always has a happy ending. Probably the angstiest fic I wrote is In your precense I trust, my last Good Omens fic where Crowley has a shit day and seeks out Aziraphale for some comfort. But it doesn't have an angsty ending at all.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Literally all of them? Most of them have very soft endings because that's what I love.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Nope. I think I got some weird comments a couple of times? But no. And if I did I deleted them and forgot about them lol.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I haven't posted any smut, yet. I have two (...three? Can't recall) smut WIPs, one OFMD that's almost finished and needs editing (although I haven't touched it in months lol) and one Good Omens one as well that is significantly more incomplete.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I don't? I have had a few ideas for crossovers, and I even started writing a couple, but none I've worked on in a while. The craziest one is a Good Omens/Los Simuladores (Argentina) crossover; I had the idead with @two-hands-toward-the-sun and they actually wrote a fic about it, every morning the same big and little words all spelling out desire. It's very good and you should read it.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Nope. Not to my knowledge at least, I hope not.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yeah! I translated a few of my own fics (from english to spanish and spanish to english) and I had several of my Sherlock fics translated to russian.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Yup, Obsession is a Sherlock fic I co-wrote with @0therainbowmind0 during late 2019/early 2020.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

Something you need to know about me: I am terribly indecisive. I don't have favourite anythings because I can never choose and my asnwers change constantly. So, at the moment and for the past couple years my favourite ship, or at elast the one I keep returning to, has been Good Omens' Aziraphale/Crowley. Although, at this very moment, as in, the day I'm writing this and for the past week or so, I have also been very much into X-Men's Charles/Erik.

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Hard question! I don't like posting WIPs, so I almost always wait until I have completed a story before posting it. The only exception is Gotham Online. I would like to finish that fic sometime, although there's not much plotline, I would simply like to continue it because I have many ideas. One other fic I would like to finish but I am not certain I will is my "Heaven's Prayers Department" Good Omens WIP, where some angels in heaven hear Crowley's prayers through the millenia.

16. What are your writing strengths?

I think probably writing dialogue is what I'm best at. I'm good at it, even though sometimes I may struggle to properly get a character's voice.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Descriptions, I really struggle with them in general. I'm bad at describing places, clothes, everything. Ambientation is not my thing.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

It's fine? I don't know; I don't do it. The only time I did was in my Good Omens' spanish pet names fic, which to be fair, I wrote originally in spanish (Los nombres del amor) and later translated to english (The names of love). In the translation I kept the pet names untranslated, as they were the entire point of the fic.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

I don't remember if I ever actually wrote or just daydreamed and maybe, at most, wrote down a handful of ideas as a bulletpoint list, but if we count that then it was, embarrassingly enough, for the Spanish gamer youtubers fandom circa ~2016. But the first fandom I actually wrote for was Sherlock. Or maybe MCU? I don't remember which one I wrote for first but the first fic I ever posted was a Sherlock one.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

Oh fuck. This is literally so hard to choose. I think my favourite Good Omens fic is the previously named In your precense I trust or Lavender Suits You, which I wrote for the Ineffable Butch Wives Week last year. Other favourites I really loved writing and also enjoy rereading are: Crush, a TAZ fic written for the Blupjeans Week 2021; Joanna McCoy's Week In Space, written for the Spones Reverse Big Bang 2020-21; my previously mentioned OFMD fic, Epiphanies at dawn; and my most recent fic, age with all its ailing brings blessings, I believe, which is an X-Men fic and the first part of the old men cherik series. The second part of the series is finish and already half edited, and I started writing the third (and probably final) part.

Honestly if anyone wants to do this, consider yourself tagged. It was very fun XD

English

Hi guys, today I decided to share with you a series of fanarts that I've made over the years. In 1969, David Bowie released Space Oddity, one of the best songs of his musical career. The song is about an astronaut named Major Tom who went to space but never returned to Earth. After the song's resounding success, Bowie decided to continue using his character in other songs, such as Ashes to Ashes, Hallo Spaceboy and Blackstar.

In 1982, Peter Schilling released Major Tom (Coming Home), a song that made him world famous, becoming an even bigger success than Space Oddity. The song is a reinterpretation of Space Oddity, where astronaut Major Tom manages to return to Earth, providing a happy ending for Bowie's character.

Yes, both singers used the same character in their songs and after Schilling's song was released, several other singers also ended up using Bowie's character in their songs, either reinterpreting one of his songs, or telling a new story for the character and so on.

Schilling's music really marked my childhood and remains one of my favorite rock songs, but Bowie's music is certainly an absolute classic, being a bubblegum song that keeps playing in my mind because it's so catchy, It's also one of my favorite rock songs.

Anyway, in 2019, I made the first fanart of these two singers, in which they are representing Major Tom wearing astronaut clothes.

Furthermore, this was also one of the first drawings I outlined before painting and as you can see, the outline is very crooked, horrible hahaha Not to mention the poorly done painting right lol

In 2020, I made the second fanart of David Bowie and Peter Schilling. It was supposed to be a realistic drawing, but everything went wrong LMFAO

Think about an ugly drawing, it's definitely one of the worst drawings I've ever done in my entire life… Like, look at David Bowie, I was supposed to aim at him but I ended up getting right on Kevin Bacon XD

In 2021, I made the third fanart. It was the second time I tried to make a realistic drawing of David Bowie and Peter Schilling, but this time it was a thousand times better than the previous fanart, which was already shit.

I'm not very good at making realistic drawings, but this drawing here is good for a beginner.

And this was the last fanart I made of these two singers, and it was also the last drawing I made so far.

I had the idea of doing a redraw/remake of the first fanart, but instead of doing an anime drawing, I decided to use my "semi-realistic" style, a style that reminds me of comic books.

In addition to drawing Bowie and Schilling, I also had the idea of drawing two furry characters to represent them, so I decided to draw two characters from Lackadaisy: Zib and Joey. After I made this fanart, I really wanted to paint, but my painting is very simple (it's as if a child had painted all my drawings) and I wanted a really cool painting, a well-done painting, because as it's the last drawing, I wanted to close with a flourish, you know.

Even a friend of mine who does amazing digital arts was going to paint my drawing, but unfortunately she couldn't do it because she was very busy. As I couldn't find someone else who was available to paint my drawing, I gave up on painting the fanart 😢 Well, I hope you liked these fanarts I made over the years 😊

Português (Brasil)

Oi pessoal, hoje resolvi compartilhar com vocês uma série de fanarts que eu fiz ao longo dos anos. Em 1969, David Bowie lançou Space Oddity, uma das melhores músicas de sua carreira musical. A música é sobre um astronauta chamado Major Tom que foi viajar pro espaço mas nunca mais voltou pra Terra. Após o sucesso estrondoso da música, Bowie resolveu continuar a usar seu personagem em outras músicas, como Ashes to Ashes, Hallo Spaceboy e Blackstar.

Em 1982, Peter Schilling lançou Major Tom (Coming Home), uma música que o tornou mundialmente famoso, fazendo um sucesso ainda maior que Space Oddity. A música é uma releitura de Space Oddity, onde o astronauta Major Tom consegue voltar pra Terra, sendo um final feliz pro personagem de Bowie.

Sim, ambos os cantores usaram o mesmo personagem em suas músicas e depois que a música de Schilling lançou, vários outros cantores também acabaram usando o personagem de Bowie em suas músicas, seja fazendo uma releitura de uma de suas músicas, ou contando uma nova história pro personagem e etc.

A música de Schilling marcou muito a minha infância e continua sendo uma das minhas músicas de rock favoritas, mas a música de Bowie com certeza é um clássico absoluto, sendo uma música chiclete que não para de tocar em minha mente de tão cativante que é, sendo também uma das minhas músicas de rock favoritas.

Enfim, em 2019, fiz a primeira fanart desses dois cantores, no qual estão representando o Major Tom usando roupas de astronauta.

Além disso, esse também foi um dos primeiros desenhos que contornei antes de pintar e como deram pra notar, o contorno tá muito torto, horrível kkkkkkkkkkk Sem contar a pintura mal feita XD Essa primeira fanart era pra ser anime, mas acho que não deu muito certo rsrs

Em 2020, fiz a segunda fanart do David Bowie e Peter Schilling. Era pra ser um desenho realista, mas deu tudo errado vskwkskwksksks

Pensa num desenho feio, com certeza é um dos piores desenhos que já fiz em toda a minha vida… Tipo, olha pro David Bowie, era pra mirar nele mas acabei acertando no Kevin Bacon XD

Em 2021, fiz a terceira fanart. Foi a segunda vez que tentei fazer um desenho realista do David Bowie e do Peter Schilling, só que desta vez ficou mil vezes melhor do que a fanart anterior, que já era uma merda.

Eu não sou muito bom em fazer desenhos realistas, mas esse desenho aqui até que ficou bom pra um iniciante.

E essa foi a última fanart que fiz desses dois cantores, sendo também o último desenho que fiz até agora.

Tive a ideia de fazer um redesenho/remake da primeira fanart, só que ao invés de fazer um desenho em anime, resolvi usar o meu estilo "semi realista", um estilo que lembra de HQs.

Além de eu ter desenhado Bowie e Schilling, também tive a ideia de desenhar dois personagens furry pra representá-los, então resolvi desenhar dois personagens de Lackadaisy: Zib e Joey. Depois que fiz essa fanart, eu queria muito pintar, mas a minha pintura é muito simples (é como se uma criança tivesse pintado todos os meus desenhos) e eu queria uma pintura muito foda, uma pintura bem feita, pois como é o último desenho, queria fechar com chave de ouro, sabe.

Inclusive uma amiga minha que faz incríveis artes digitais ia pintar o meu desenho, mas infelizmente ela não pôde fazer isso por estar bastante ocupada. Como não consegui achar outra pessoa que estivesse disponível pra pintar o meu desenho, desisti de pintar a fanart 😢 Bom, espero que tenham gostado dessas fanarts que fiz ao longo dos anos 😊

Baz Luhrmann's feature film debut Strictly Ballroom (1992). One of the best film debuts ever, right up there with Terrence Malick's Badlands (1973) for me.

12. A performance you think is underrated

Cristin Milioti in Palm Springs (2020). I love this movie a lot and I think she is great in it — she's the beating heart of the movie. I think Cristin Milioti is, generally speaking, very underrated, but she always catches my attention in whatever movie/tv show she's in. She needs to do more movies!

15. A movie ruined by the ending

Stay (2005) starring Ryan Gosling. To be honest, I already disliked the movie before the ending, but that ending succeeded in making me hate the movie. So in-your-face and melodramatic, ugh... I get it! It's all in his mind, wow.

21. A director you think is underrated

Sion Sono. I never see anyone talk about him. I understand why though. His work is as weird and as off-putting as it gets, but that's why some of his films are so good tbh (at least to me).

E OBRIGADA SIL. Ao menos posso contar contigo e nunca me ignoras <3 god bless e obrigada pelas perguntas.

NOT SO BERRY (2022)

O desafio not so berry originalmente foi criado pela @lilsimsie, popularizando na comunidade outras versões foram surgindo e a mais recente é a da @simqueen8 criado em 2020, incluindo as expansões e novos pacotes do The sims 4, traduzida por @maluandtheplumbobs.

Pensando nisso resolvi recriar com algumas pequenas alterações, como profissões e aspirações. Aconselhada para quem tem todas as expansões lançadas até dezembro de 2022.

#personal

[somethingusefulfromflorida]

I've had a rocky relationship with my dad for years, but it wasn't until today that I realized I would have preferred growing up without him. I wish I had never known him. I wish I had been raised by a single mom or a stepdad. He is cruel, bigoted, abusive, misanthropic, agoraphobic, neglectful, wrathful, nihilistic, paranoid... It sounds childish to say it, but he's just plain mean! He is a mean man. He is mean to me, to my siblings, to my mom, to our pets, to every stranger he sees on the street. I realized in 2020 that I wouldn't be sad if he died, but it wasn't until today that I realized I wish he would.

I could vent for thousands of words, list every grievance, air 25 years of dirty laundry, but all it would do it put me in a worse mood than I already am. There's ao much personal baggage I'd need to unpack, and it's best not to oversharey trauma. Suffice it to say that there is no room for improvement. I've tried. He hasn't. He never will, and that's not pessimistic hyperbole, I mean it; he will never change for the better. His mental state has been on a steady decline since 2009, 2010ish, and it's gotten exponentially worse since 2020. There's no going back.

I no longer remember what he was like before. All of my positive memories of him are gone, repressed, as if they never happened. I know they existed, I know it wasn't all bad, I know it used to be better, but I can't remember how. I'm 25, and he has been like this for a majority of my life now. I can't wait until I don't have to think about him anymore. I want to forget everything, and then in 30 years I'll look back at how I think about him now and I'll say "well, surely it wasn't that bad! I must have been in a bad place and exaggerated it. I sure do miss my dear old dad." I would rather know nothing and assume the best than know everything that's the worst.

#i hate him so much #i wish i didn't know him #i wish he was a deadbeat #i wishy mom had left him #it's impossible for me to cut him out entirely because then I would need to cut out my mom too #i can't do that #i could never do that #i don't want to abandon my mom #but she can't leave him because she can't afford to #and my brother is severely disabled #and neither one of them can care for him on their own #they're codependent #and i wish it wasn't this way

(milly alcock, mulher cis, ela/dela) PREPARE TO GET STARSTRUCK! Acabamos de ver HEIDI BERNARDI passando pelo tapete vermelho! Com seus 22 anos, ela é uma ATRIZ conhecida pelos seus fãs por ser muito SINCERA E POSITIVA, embora há quem diga que nos bastidores ela possa ser bastante DESLEIXADA E BAGUNCEIRA. Você ouviu o que os tablóides andam dizendo sobre ele? Não? Ah, eu te conto! Estão dizendo que ELA É AMANTE DE UM ATOR MAIS VELHO E FAMOSO! Será que isso é verdade? Hm… esperamos que não comprometa os seus futuros projetos porque realmente gostamos de vê-lo no topo!

PROJETOS.

Best of Luck, Charlie (2003-2007, paródia de Good Luck, Charlie): HEIDI BERNARDI interpretou Charlie Dustin.

Indícios (2006, paródia de Sinais): HEIDI BERNARDI interpretou Bo Hill.

Menina viaja o Universo (2014-2017, paródia de Menina Conhece o mundo): HEIDI BERNARDI interpretou Ruby Mitchell.

Epiphany (desde 2020): HEIDI BERNARDI interpreta Alexa Howard.

Hawkeye (desde 2023): HEIDI BERNARDI interpreta Kate Bishop.

SPOTIFY + PINTEREST.

RESUMO: Heidi sempre esteve nas telinhas, apesar de, no início, ter focado em séries infantis, com Indícios como única exceção. Foi por um acaso que foi escalada para fazer Charlie Dustin, seus pais tinham os contatos certos e ela, bem, havia nascido no momento certo. Entretanto, Heidi nunca se deu bem com as telinhas, desleixada demais, bagunceira demais, desorganizada. Não uma má menina, não, mas aventureira de fato. Isso não a faz extrovertida, nem de longe, é fechada e quieta, porém positiva com aqueles que conhece e cria grande apreço. Indícios foi uma temática explorada quando criança e, bem, hoje, se for para ser sincera, prefere filmes de terror ou aqueles com um drama mais aprofundado, do que, de fato, histórias leves e animadas. Sua busca atual é em sair das séries e mergulhar de vez nos filmes, principalmente após a morte da mãe, que sonhava em vê-la estrela de filmes grandiosos, mas parece estar fadada aos episódios. De qualquer forma, tem ciência que é de sua vida aventureira, moleca e divertida, mas não menos discreta, que surgem os boatos de que é amante de um ator mais velho.

INFORMAÇÕES.

data de nascimento: 17 de novembro.

signo: escorpião.

altura: 1,68 m

CONEXÕES:

HEIDI, apesar da natureza despojada, é uma eterna romântica. MUSE A, por sua vez, é seu primeiro e, aparentemente, eterno crush. está difícil manter-se forte. (m/f/nb)

com MUSE B foi amizade ao primeiro olhar. se deram bem logo de primeira e HEIDI sabe que arranjou para si um parceiro para toda vida, principalmente em suas aventuras. (m/f/nb)

mais que amigas, friends. foi em um set de filmagem que MUSE C e HEIDI se conheceram e, desde então, não se largaram mais. algumas manchetes até mesmo suspeitam de tamanha proximidade. (f)

talvez seja por ser desleixada, ou bagunceira, até mesmo fechada demais. quem sabe seja o olhar de peixe morto de HEIDI ou uma paixão não compreendida? ninguém sabe o motivo pelo qual vivem se desentendo, mas HEIDI e MUSE D não podem estar no mesmo ambiente. (m/f/nb)

MUSE E carrega o posto de ter sido a primeira vez de HEIDI. pode ter sido vergonhoso, pode ter sido romântico, ninguém sabe. mas HEIDI não sabe onde se enfiar quando se encontram em eventos. (m/f/nb)

a perda da mãe fez com que HEIDI abrisse portas para que MUSE F se tornasse seu responsável não responsável. a diferença de idade é interessante, mas é para você que HEIDI corre nos momentos mais desesperadores. (m/f/nb)

We are excited to introduce our next shining star for the Creator Spotlight... Banshee!

This is an activity where we reach out to one of the talented people in our community each month to find out all about them and their kakairu creations, and then show them off to the world!

We hope you enjoy learning about Angela & her creations as much as we did. Please give her some love ❤️  

Pronouns: She/Her

Type of Creator: Writer

Where to find her:

AO3

Wattpad

Instagram

Twitter

Read the exciting interview below the cut, or on the forum!

If you would like a chance to be in the spotlight too, the only thing you have to do is be a member of the kakairu rocks forum, and be a creator; and we will contact you, ourselves!

Please note that the following responses have been translated from Portuguese to English by mod @kakairu-shrine​, with the help of online translation services. We don't believe that language barriers should stop creators from being in the spotlight, so we're trying our best to make sure that people who aren't as familiar with English can be included, too!

1. How long have you been creating KakaIru fanworks?

Since 2020, when I published my first story, “Meio Homem” (“Half a Man”) on Wattpad.

2. What are you working on right now?

I never focus on one thing, which is bad. But at the moment, I’m finishing “Ainda Existe Nós?” (“Is There Still Us?”) and looking for inspiration to continue “1732 - O Ano do Vampiro” ("1732 - the Year Of The Vampire”), featuring our beloved vampire Kakashi. And I have approximately 20 prompts to finish, including 5 long fics. I have a lot of work to do. Hopefully I can get it all done this year.

3. What is your favourite trope to create for?

I love working with dramas, making readers move, cry along, and suffer with them. If it has a happy ending, that’s fine, and if it ends sad, that’s okay, too. But I also like to write lighter things, the process of getting to know each other, falling in love, understanding how the other works, and accepting their qualities and flaws.

4. Which of your creations is your favourite, and why?

I believe it’s “Reminiscence”. It talks about things we wouldn’t even dream of losing, where forgetfulness is something that has great consequences for both Kakashi and Iruka, especially for Iruka. This is a story where he suffers the most. It’s my biggest, with 39 chapters; and I loved writing each one of them.

5. Do you have any WIPs you’re excited about?

I have one about how Kakashi got his eight dogs and a boyfriend. It’s an alternate universe, more for our time and reality. There’s a lot of confusion, and of course, a dose of drama. I hope to finish it soon, “Eu, você e… oito cachorros” (“Me, you and… eight dogs”).

6. Do you have any original characters? If so, tell us about them!

Well, I have Sun, which was created to honor my WhatsApp group called “Sunflowers”. She appears in “Reminiscence” and has even been Kakashi and Iruka’s daughter in other stories. She is an amazing girl, always willing to help those in need, and does everything for friends.

This is Sun, made by Lana. I don’t have any socials of hers, because we ended up losing contact.

7. What was your hardest piece to create, and why?

“A missão fracassada do Time 7” (“Team 7’s failed mission”), which is about 30 fanfics made for KakaIru Month May 2021. I had difficulties with the themes and plots I was developing - nothing seemed good enough, and this is one of my least favorite stories. Maybe because I think the plot was forced and it didn’t turn out the way I’d like. Everything seemed to run so fast.

8. Do you have any favourite scenes from something you’ve created?

I’ve never stopped to think about it before, but now, at the moment, I believe it is a scene from “Amor ao primeiro gesto” (“Love at first gesture”), where Iruka meets Kakashi; and by training, he soon understands that Kakashi only speaks through sign language, and they begin to talk.

I did a lot of research to understand how LIBRAS (Brazilian Sign Language) works and tried my best to describe the gestures correctly. I believe it turned out well. It was fun to write about, especially the end of the story, with Obito being Iruka’s jealous brother (yes, I’m on this trip of Iruka and Obito being Hashirama and Madara’s children 😆 😆 😆)

9. Where does your inspiration come from?

Books, series, songs, sometimes even phrases that I read. I am a book lover, always looking to read new and different things. But inspiration often comes when I am distracted, and my thoughts flying, and a “What if…” comes to mind.

"What if Iruka was kidnapped?” "What if Kakashi was a hit man?” “What if they split up?”

Maybe this will be part of something for the future, who knows…

10. Which of your creations is the most meaningful to you, and why?

It’s difficult to choose just one, but I choose “Meio Homem” (“Half a Man”). It was the first fic I wrote about Kakashi and Iruka, where my love for this incredible ship began. They have a wonderful dynamic and are companions in this piece.

“Meio Homem” talks about the challenges of a person who is in a wheelchair, feeling incomplete; and in the middle of all this, two children appear in need of affection and attention. Iruka is Kakashi’s companion and shows Kakashi that he is more than he believes.

I have such a passion for this story that it is deserving of a re-read; and who knows, soon there might be an original version, which I am also working on, studying and learning more about to enter the original book market.

A working list of anime I have watched (in whole or in part)

Since covid lockdowns started in 2020, I decided, for lack of anything else to do, to start cataloguing all the anime titles I’d seen. And spoiler, it’s been a lot! The list will be updated now and then as I dredge up titles I’ve forgotten about, and new stuff I start watching.

Descriptions and recommendations are based on my opinion and taste. If you don’t like that I’ve watched a certain title, or what I had to say about it, kindly eat my ass :)

Adult content is mixed up with child-friendly titles. If you’re a minor looking up any of these titles, that’s on you and your own discretion. I’m not your babysitter.

I’m posting this to my “stuff I made” blog, and I’m not super active here. If you wanna follow my main blog where I braindump and post anything and everything, hit up @titimylove

12 Kingdoms -- SUPER RECOMMENDED -- Underrated & so good. Fantasy isekai sorta thing based around chinese mythology. Has unicorns!

5cm per second -- boring -- Gorgeous animation flex, but not much happens.

7 Seeds -- SUPER RECOMMENDED -- If you survived the apocalypse, what would your role be? Post-apocalyptic world to be repopulated by carefully selected teams of people. Incredible social experiment but without the garbage of the fallout series.

91 Days -- SUPER RECOMMENDED -- Prohibition-era mafia and bootleggers, dope shit.

A Silent Voice -- Recommended -- Might make you cry. Deaf girl learns to forgive her childhood bully and learn to live again through depression.

A Whisker Away -- Recommended -- Adorable and imaginative. Who hasn't wanted to become a cat?

Aachi and Ssipak -- Dumb but good -- Literal toilet humor. Shit jokes everywhere (literally that's the movie).

Aggressive Retsuko -- SUPER RECOMMENDED -- The best thing sanrio ever did.

Ah My Goddess anime -- Just Ok

Ah my Goddess movie -- Just Ok
