would love to know your thoughts on the circle of needle and thread pcs please and thank you

Hello! Sorry I kept you waiting, but my thoughts on this wonderful circle follow! I didn't really speak at length or unpack a lot of it, but I wrote some broad strokes of what interests me about each of them.

I might unpack some of these things in future posts, but if you want to hear more about something specific I mentioned (or about a specific thing I didn't), please feel free to send more asks!

Nathaniel

I am well-known to be a Travis Stan On Main because he is into the same sorts of characters and archetypes and narratives and themes that I'm into. Nathaniel is no exception. I knew I was going to love him off the Q&A, and by God, do I love him.

I think there's something terrifying in how he often is so (endearingly) nervous and hapless yet commands absolute unthinking loyalty in Sean and Marion. But, I do love a character with an unexpected iron force of will underneath a more easily dismissed surface, and I'm always lucky Travis loves that too.

The Trapp family dynamics are absolutely BONKERS, and I've been turning over in my head the reveal that Nathaniel has lived his entire life in the shadow of not just an older brother, but an older brother who died when he was young—and he feels responsible for it. Truly blisteringly deep well to draw from here, and he's another example of how efficiently Travis can sketch a character and imbue them with a sense of deep and heavy history, a dense web of relationships, and a very present absence looming over them in so little time.

A classic Travis character. He's like what if Fjord was Cerrit.

Beatrix

I have to, unfortunately, admit that she is my least favorite of the circle. She is a solid character and well-executed in this episode, but unfortunately, she is of an archetype and is generally a type of character that I don't vibe with. (I had this same issue with Auggie—very well executed, just not my type.)

I am very interested in her place within this circle as the longest-serving among them, and I am very interested in the way she hovers over Jean and the old histories with Marion and Sean. I do also find that sort of distanced assessment of the three men and observation about having watched them go through flashbacks constantly; she is right that they, ultimately, need time, but her distanced tone teeters close to It Is What It Is and that's a fascinating, somewhat jaded perspective if so.

Sean

What a darling, violent boy. I love characters in this genre who take a shotgun or a baseball bat (literally, in this case) to supernatural creatures. Big energy of: "The horrors are incomprehensible? Buddy, I ain't interested in comprehending them. [cocks shotgun]"

His relationship with Nathaniel in particular is fascinatingly bonkers to me in the best way, and I think Sean's devotion to Nathaniel is wild in that like, even factoring in the war history, Nathaniel does not seem like a man Sean would normally respect—so this level of trust is quite evocative. The dead brothers throughline between them is going to drive me insane.

I'm so interested in leaning more about Sean's history during the war, especially because Sean is framed as that's all he has left. He is so stuck in that war that it's in his specialty, and I think there's a lot to explore in grappling with how important it is that Sean's brothers (apparently) died on the same mission Sean stopped being able to look at himself.

Jean

My girl! Like Nathaniel, I knew I was going to love her off the Q&A and, like Nathaniel, I very much do. I ADORE a character who is so tightly controlled they threaten to unravel at any moment. I love characters who seem cold and cool but care so much and is so full of warmth.

I'm also fascinated by the glimpse at her relationship with her father. There's also something very sweet and interesting in the way she dotes on Marion, and I'm definitely watching that relationship closely.

All in all, I wanna see her get her hands dirty, and she's started this chapter off with making a hard choice and I hope that she keeps struggling with them. It's very fun to watch a character who thinks they know the direction they going get all turned around. I am very excited to see this clear code she has further unravel across the chapter, and I love to watch a character with poise become undone.

Marion

As said, a sweet boy! He is so dear to me, and it tickles me that Luis comes onto the channel and immediately experiences The Visions. I'm really curious about the origin of this scar, and why the pointed plant imagery with the window and the patterned shirt and the promotional images. I also would love to know more about Marion's history during the war and what that breakdown at the end was about specifically.

I alluded to it above, but I find his relationship with Jean to be very endearing and I Am Looking while that develops. His relationship with Sean has some fascinating hesitation in it—the exchange about would you know if I was okay / would you tell me in particular—and I do have some thoughts about how interesting it is that it doesn't necessarily feel like Marion quite Gets Sean post-war even though they seemed very close pre-war. I also again find the intense loyalty Nathaniel inspires in him to be so well developed but also terrifying. Marion's is subtler than Sean's, but he is just as quick to listen to what Nathaniel commands, and I'm curious to see if we learn if there was a specific incident that earned it.

He is an enigma at the moment, but I love a haunted seer, and I'm so looking forward to it.

Happy new year, 2023!

It's been a while last post. I have been super busy by moving house. Finally I finished to make workspace and gaming desk, both are I have been wanted long time. I bought Drapas' desk, A1 size and I use for drawing comics. And I put another desk, I will use for digital tools and packing the webshop things.

Gaming PC came to my house too. I have to learn how to use windows OS and gaming with keyboard and mouse. I bought DOOM and Halo on Steam, I wanna play soon!

So, while setting up the gaming desk, 2022 was ended. Happy new year, everybody. I hope your 2023 will be fabulous!

I talk about personal stuff, 2022 was half awesome, half terrible year.

About work, it was totally better than past two years. I drew two of Marvel's Voices. And I also drew two of Spider-hero, one of them was first ever gay spider-hero Web-Weaver, I couldn’t be prouder as a queer artist. Another spider-hero was Spider-Gwen aka Ghost-Spider, this is mini series and I'm going to draw first some months of 2023. And I started the journey of transition. I started to going to GIC from August. It was one of the biggest decision in my life.

Terrible things are… almost related to trans hate/transmisia (I decided to use transmisia instead of transphobia) Especially increasing the number of trans hate post on twitter was awful. I already deleted the account though, the takeover by Elon Musk was happened and I read the news about number of hate and discrimination post were increased actually. (To tell the truth I can't believe friends still using that terrible SNS)(Yea, they are majority and maybe don't care so much) I have tried to get better mental illnesses but this became the trigger my mental condition was getting worse again. That time I drunk alcohol a lot for escape from anxiety, so I was worried about being alcoholism if I keep this bad habit. So I asked doctor and started medication. I haven’t drink any alcohol since 9 September. It was good I could stop alcohol before being worse, but I liked drink Japanese sake after work, so I feel like be took away a part of my usual life…

So, my plans of 2023. Anyways I really, really hope getting better my mental illness.

I'll try to get better my mental illnesses. I'll continue to stop drinking alcohol and have meds.

For years I have often been down by mental illness and having meds, may weight was gained and I'm lacking energy for usual life. I will do workouts regularly.

I will reduce relationship with friends… I need keep distance and time. I hope everyone learn about Trans/nonbinary, neurodiversity, and being kind to other people more. I think I'm OK there are creative teams and fans at least. Being alone is better than being treated like I wasn’t there even though I was there for me.

I wanna draw Star Wars again :P

Top Surgery and starting hormone injections!! I don't know when I can get them though…

I'll get 3 tattoos at least.

I really appreciate your support💖 Please be kind to yourself and others, don't stop learning, I'll do them so too:)

Hi, i'm Ariadna but i go by Aria

I saw someone in tumblr make an introduction in a post so i thought why not do it myself too?

~My name is Ariadna and i love reading about mythology ever since i heard of it.

~I'm 23 y/o and i'm an Aries. Yes, i like astrology and i'm pretty much into it. I also believe in energy, spirituality, reincarnation, ghosts, angels, witches. You pretty much get the point i think.

~I love all things weird, like subcultures, reptiles, gothic literature, carnivorous plants and other strange topics (ik the examples aren't really strange but it was what came to my mind, i'll keep updating).

~I LOOOVE horror, fr, it's what gets me going. I also love vampires and werewolves, stories about them, the possibility that they actually existed or still exist, pretty horrorful but i do believe in them, for some f*cked up reason probably.

~I love animals and wish i could go vegan, i actually want to achieve that goal cause i think that killing animals to feed on them and the things people/the industry does to get animal food is absolutely horrorful (not in a good way), gross and cruel. However, i don't judge those who eat meat or even like eating meat, it's how this world is used to eat basically, we're used to do many things that aren't right for us and other creatures. Also, i've heard people say phrases such as "poor plants, they have feelings too" or "we're carnivorous by nature", etc. and my thought on those "arguments" ("" because it's not really an argument) is fuck you, i get it, you like meat, fucking say it , don't justify yourself, just say you like eating meat.

~I organize and categorize things when i'm bored and don't know what to do, they're usually files or films in my pc or could also be photos in my phone, things like that. It's like the way i destress (not sure if that word exists) sometimes.

~I'm a people person but i seem a bit antisocial or introverted in person because i suffer from social anxiety sometimes (most times). Also, my blog is a safe space for anyone that identifies "outside the norm" or the socially accepted, like goths, emos, lgbtq+ community, etc. And i won't accept any agression, violence or cruelty done against anyone in my blog. If you're racist, homophobic, transphobic, lgbtq+ phobic, sexist, mysogynist, hembrist (yeah that's a thing too), xenophobic, sexual abuser (or someone who supports abuse cause "they were asking for it", btw f*k you) or just a plain bully, then fuck off my blog, you're not welcome, i won't condone it.

~I write and create oc's as a hobby (i'm not very good at it though). Some of my character's names are Celestine Phade, Orion Debstern, Coralinn Wardwell, Eleonor Bruneau, Osiris Éjzsaka, Lavender Kelechii, Andromeda Harkin, Rita Abital-Cheronobog, Anastasia Bosporus, Zella Haizea. Some of them have pretty weird names and i made a few of them (their names). Some are witches, most of them are witches.

~I have many stories to write about, i always start them but never finish them cause i think i'm not a good writer (i'm probably not, at least not so good), i have good ideas though.

~I draw and paint sometimes, but i haven't in a while. I like dark art and usually draw/paint faces, i'm good at drawing bodies tho but mostly female bodies, i've never really practiced much drawing male anatomy. Not really good at hands, they feel difficult to draw, they're not actually difficult, they just feel like it.

~I'm currently studying html programming but i'm not sure that's what i wanna dedicate myself to, i actually like cybersecurity but i'm just starting with programming. I also like many things to study but not all of them are well paid as a job, like photography, criminology, archeology, speleology, painting. So many possibilities, but so little time.

~For anyone that could and will probably ask: i have a boyfriend, and no, i don't want to s*xt with you or get any pics of your d*ck. Tysm

I'll keep updating if anything comes to mind
