#i may be in a rut

[calandrinon]

and now it is time for me to monitor my stats on obscurify

where are the other 38 australian users more obscure than me

what do they listen to

is it any good?

scrolling down...

yep, that sure is my finger right there on the pulse of modern music

#i mean #i also have pulsar music player on my phone! #where i can listen to the phoenix and travka albums that spotify doesn't have #hm #i may be in a rut #am i in a rut? #no. it's the children who are wrong #music <3

(Edit: Thanks to the people who informed me on what Leif's species is!)

Sat down and got to finally properly render these fuckers while also settling on how I should draw them. I actually did a tiny bit of research on their respective species, took a few elements here and there but nothing to drastically change them.

So as far as I'm aware, Leif is not a specific moth but plenty of blue and red moths will usually have the eye patterns on their wings and as well as have fluff on their bodies. Had fun with the posing and if you can guess where I referenced it then you get a cookie. Thought it was neat that the original concept was that he was suppose to dance.

Vi is obviously a honey bee, they're very well known to be fuzzy. I don't have much to say besides from that but if anyone doesn't know, only females have stingers.

Now Kabbu was really testing my patience, according to the wiki it states that is he is a rainbow scarab beetle. If that is wrong then too bad, those guys are gorgeous and it took me too long to figure how to balance the colors without burning my eyes. Its faint but noticeable, just so I can still be true to the game model, also I know it's not as visible here but I realize beetle wings are very pretty.

So what's the conclusion here? There needs to be a website dedicated to bug references so I can sit there and admire them all day.

Oh baby we have all the tumblr user higherhell cliches on display here...beautiful men with long hair...red black and white color schemes...solid blocks of void for clothing. haha Did this as potentially an example piece for an eventual opening of comms...but whether I can commit to that remains to be seen. They would be in something like this format though (black & white + one accent color, bust/halfbody or so) most likely, because I enjoy it

#art #the pictures on my wall #personal pulse #gotta be real I have no idea what else to tag this. lol #was very fun to work on though. I was in a rut for a few days and couldn't put anything to paper* so it felt good to finish #*digital paper that is #I should probably use actual paper more often I have been neglecting my sketchbooks #and next time I travel I may suffer for it

guys. isn't being alive so cool. there are. so many swag people in my life. some of them don't even know i exist but i know that they exist and they're doing cool shit and i look at them with fondness that's enough for me.

the people who do know that i exist are also wonderful and i cherish them so much beyond human comprehension its unreal to me that in another lifetime i wouldn't know such splendid souls but they are here with me now and i think that's all that matters.

and there's so many cool little creatures and animals and plants and whatnot and even if i don't know shit about them i think its so cool that somewhere out there these things spark whimsy and joy and breathe life into people that their brain is like a cozy little library of encyclopedia knowledge.

the way in which life can take us on so many fun journeys and paths even if it may not look like anything to us in the moment i think it's so fucking neat to be able to walk this path and that even in hardship there will be good for us eventually and stories to tell for getting through these things.

guys i love being alive im so happy i love life and i'm so glad that i can feel a depth of emotions because it means i can be grateful for so many cool things like this.

i hope you all have something to love in life too you are so epic and swag for reading this and i think you will absolutely be able to skyrocket out of the universe to do the thing you want to do. keep on keeping on fellow humans!!!

#lizzy speaks #i needed to get this out somewhere #today on lizz exists i am feeding my brain nutrients #i have been neglecting to give my brain positive messaging so i put myself in a rut on an accident :c #i hope everyone can be compassionate to themselves! you are so cool. tell yourself nice things u deserve it #there is so much joy in being niceys not only to others but to urself #i think being alive is so beautiful sometimes i feel so strongly about things it makes me want to cry from how wonderful life is #do i need to post this? no. but i want to. this is a moment of lizz brain to be preserved methinks #and it makes me very happy when other people can enjoy being alive. i sincerely hope the people around me and the ones that i may not be- #able to see in this instant can be happy too. happies for everyone!!!

Wait

Mecha going into heat is a thing

Mecha going into rut is a thing

What if, perhaps, two character's cycles aligned juuust right?

One bot in heat, another in rut, and one very exasperated medic who's trying to keep them from getting underfueled and overheated

#valveplug #now we usually shove ratchet into the exasperated medic role because of course #but #may i suggest this time instead ratchet is one of the mecha in heat or in rut

[unexpectedstormy]

I think for my main fic Hyrule and Wild Have a Hard Time I'm going to reduce the minimum chapter word count from 8,000 words to 4,000. I really don't want to do this but I'm at a lull in the story when I'm past all the fun stuff in the beginning of the story and I'm not to the fun exciting bits to come in the climax and when I open the document I just get so discouraged cuz I've only written 1k words for the next chapter and it'll take weeks to write the other 7k words. I know from my two 1k-words-per-chapter fics that short chapters get written faster and I have more motivation to write those stories. So I figure 4k words at least for this coming H&W HaHT chapter and maybe for a couple of chapters and then we'll see how things are going.

#rambling about story planning #I may even apply the shorter chapters concept to the ghost story #cuz I'm having the same issue with that fic #but I really like having long chapters and I really want to keep it consistent #but I need to get myself out of this rut and I think short chapters is the best way to do it #also this fic is supposed to be pt 1 of 2 but I might just compress part 2 down #get rid of unnecessary bits and tack it on the end of this fic #mainly cuz I'm having trouble with plotting book 2 #I'm just not as interested in the story as pt 1 and I don't really like the idea of ending pt 1 with important issues unresolved #so yeah #but you guys #oh man #that climax is going to be epic #holy smoking evil plots #mwahahaha #ok I'll stop rambling

I feel like the game's trying to tell me something. I'm not even doing Nightmare often and suddenly I'm bombarded with special Diavolo cards.

Okay I get it the man's fine as hell and his little dance sprite shooting fire is lit af you don't gotta tell me that I can admit defeat and now it's nice to have him in the battle - It's like playing Smash and you got to beat the challenger to earn a chance to play em lol.

#obey me nightbringer #obey me diavolo #This is strange hes like not my favorite but every free draw i got him #The games like “Oh you sick of Mammon and Lucifer? - Here's Diavolo! #And i mean im not complaining but i still havent found a thing for the angels or Belphegor #Is Belphegor even alive at this point or did we 'Lesson 16' him? #And look Diavolo may not be my fave but i can admit the dudes cool and Nightbringer is warming me up to him #I seriously really love his little fire animations tho - Hes like our cute lil firebender burning things down to cool ass beats #they always go 100% for the demon prince and i like that since it makes sense the top demon dog got it lol #Nah but in all seriousness; I'm grateful ive been in a rut with this game so the new cards make me feel better about playing

my spotify wrapped is so boring it's literally just my ed teach core playlist 😭

#or like 90% #lest I be inaccurate #not that I'm not into that playlist as may be guessed but I've been in such a rut not getting into anything new #and apparently I've listened to it enough that even the songs I tend to skip have made it #music #I mean any new stuff I've gotten into has mostly been specific songs off of discover weekly which I've then probably forgotten about #...unless it went on a playlist

[baby-xemnas]

i got a big sketch backlog i want to draw many 🐯🐻‍❄️ i havent gotten bored yet trust me dude

#i will deliver on the rut front #if its the only thing i do #speaking of top bepo - he is so subby he is doing his rut backwards its a cute thought to me #even if EVEN IF his nature tells him to tear into something and fuck it he wont do it - its not a thing hes aware he's suppressing #he does it unconsciously because lаw may not his alpha biologically (both being males and lаw being different species all together) #but he is emotionally #and im not into bepo going sicko mode and doing anything he would regret when he has a clear mind #you wont see it from me! #im thinking of it in a different key that keeps the dynamics okayyyy #i dont do switches i told you - even in the face of apocalyptic rut #he is humping pillows cutely you gotta understand the appeal #lаw would find his behavior strange but theyve known each other forever so he knows that bepo doesnt deal with it the #way male bear is ought to but whatever sure #bepo subs so hard he turned his rut into a heat he is so talented #add: thats the THING THO #its the core of human mind with animal features #bepo derailing his bio urges with the power of his mind thats identical to humans #hes trans #(<joke)

so richter/emil is definitely about the only thread left holding my mental health some degree above rock bottom.

how's everybody else doing tonight.

#yeah my mental health is in shambles but i'm not telling any doctors that or they may refuse to help me with something lol #(i am trying to get OFF a certain medication) #(and i don't think they will be okay if they know i'm a wreck) #(i am a wreck BECAUSE i have been fucked over more thoroughly than an omega in heat with a rutting alpha)
