Quick announcement (before the diarrhea of information):
I'm gonna go on a semi-hiatus for a week or so. I'll still be around, just not posting any drawings. Need to replenish my energy and drawing reserves cause I'm dead >_<
Sleep behind scenes!
So... Ginkgo why the hell did this take you so long? Sorry, sorry 😅 Here's what happened. I got burned out after like 10 pages (specifically the manor backgrounds killed me, plus having the full gang in the story) and then got sick and was not feeling all that great. Working through the burn out, sick, AND college work on top was quite hard not gonna lie though, but I wanted to finish it ^^
Alright, now as for little unnecessary Easter eggs, I added as nods to the show and my other interests. ^_^
1. Undertale save point. Undertale had me sucked in for a good long while, and for some odd reason decided to re-emerge in a form of the star save. Made it purple for Uzi's effect over N. She made him more rebellious, so he started to question why is it his memories and dreams are strange/corrupted/missing instead of just going with the flow.
Tumblr media
2. Ep3 nod. V and N have history, history that I wish we get to see. V was nicer, kinder, in my opinion, prior to the absolute solver going rampage. So it makes sense for them to have some sort of friendship at the VERY least. So I decides to give it a small spin to it too. A direct quote from ep3 ^_^
Tumblr media
3. Ep 2 + 5 nod. I kinda pulled the moment when James dismissed N from ep2 together with events that follow after N leaves library in ep5. Chronologically, these events don't fit together, seeing as ep2 is when N first meets Cyn and ep5 is when she's already set up the massacre. But this is exactly what I was going for. N's memories are jumbled at best, so I took liberty in mixing, matching, and editing his memories just as the admin program would probably.
Tumblr media
4. Absolute Solver symbols nod. My chats with @absolute-solver (sorry for annoying you with tag 😅) made me realize that the absolute solver ought to have more presence now. It's activated and running systems in the background for Uzi. Whiiiiich means that drawing absolute solver should start now. BUT, it's rudimentary at best. Symbols don't really make sense and are not completed for most of the time. Not until Uzi at least sees the error message in ep2, when she truly starts questioning what that weird symbol on her visor is. I headcanon that N does know or at least feel that the absolute solver symbol is familiar, hence the little comment.
Tumblr media
5. Absolute Solver Nori. Why is there so many absolute solver Nori around? I'm certain she went back to normal, just like in pictures Khan showed us in ep4 post core collapse. But I connected the solvers together here. Uzi's absolute solver string is up and running, and because the solver is a hivemind, it'd connect the memories and warp them a little. So that's why Uzi's doodle of her and Nori at the end (and during memory recall) was so full of absolute solver. It's slowly taking root, whether she wants it to or not.
Personal touches/added/cut ideas:
N's tail wrapping around Uzi like a hug. Originally, Uzi was supposed to look more nervous, but not for the reasons you might think. I cut the nervous look to a more upset look so it wouldn't be confused for fear. Uzi's never scared of N (yes, I don't count ep2 either, that was a lot of events at once and very little time to process them). The nervous look was more of a "Why are you butting in?" type, you know? Being a loner makes you cautious, so when N prods at feelings, I figured Uzi would be a bit defensive.
Tumblr media
Cyn is fully rendered and yet I glitched her so much I felt bad. So here's full absolute solver Cyn eldrich monster thingy. ^_^
Tumblr media
I pulled a Hazbin hotel moment. Did you see it? Abracadabra GONE! All the scraps from first couple pages with NUzi chatting POOFED out of the existence. Did I get lazy and tired? Yes, that was the tell tale sign of burn out, when I stopped keeping track of background details and just kept the pod.
Tumblr media
These progress shots show pretty well how the story boarding goes and how I change my mind too easily. 😅 storyboard is still as much of a mess as ever, sketch shows you I was gonna keep Uzi's hat, but decided against it in final product. I figured this. Nori gave Uzi the jacket whenever Uzi got a bigger body + hair. These are the same jacket and hair Uzi has in canon. Uzi's body is just upgraded again and her hair gets shorter in that regard. The jacket would be big on her, and cover her hands, but what's up with the fluff if I draw canon jacket more spiky? And where's the death battery drawing? I headcanon Uzi drew those on once she got into the angsty teenager stage. The jacket is more spiky from wear and tear.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fun fact! You can sorta tell who's gonna show up in the comic by what memes I post prior. Here's some examples ^_^ Cyn showed up, and that was first practice with maid outfits and Cyn's eldrich form. Closely followed by manor gang, the second/final form of maid and butler outfits and prime practice for those scenes. This example is a bit spoiler for a meme I'm working on right now! I've never drawn Nori before, so I quickly sketched out the idea and continued on with the comic (otherwise, I'd lose my steam and procrastinate on it again). Memes are filler for you guys while I work on the actual projects (comics), and along the way, they give me practice and change in drawing style ^_^
Tumblr media
Is it a coincidence that this comic is called Sleep with the release of a certain horror game? Actually, yeah pure coincidence 😅 I had this drafted allll the way back in November, and didn't take particular interest in poppy playtime until I saw lanky boi, which was actually during a stream I watched on release day of the chapter.
(I didn't know tumblr, or at least the phone app, had a tag limit of 30, BOY was I surprised @brookiedaaroacecookie that must have been THE tag city, sorry 😅)
Next comic is Loneliness 1 and 2
This one is split into 2 POVs from both Uzi and N side, thus its 2 separate comics. That one will be more NUzi centered, too, a slight angst and comfort spin to it. That will come... sometime. I have a few more projects I wanna finish up with prior to starting on these guys ^_^
Why are you still reading this? Omg, have a cookie 🍪 you made it. Have a nice day now ^_^

FAQ
RULES FOR SENDING ASKS
No explicit NSFW. No heavy venting. No asking incredibly personal questions. I'm a "faceless" artist for a reason. No hate or rude comments towards myself as an artist and as a person as well as towards other people. I genuinely don't care if you think X is better than what I do, or what I do is better than X. It's not a compliment, don't bring other people down for the sake of wanting to say "nice things", please. Not going to mention way more extreme cases because they'd probably not be interacting with my blog if they read my DNIs list.
REPOSTS AND USAGE OF MY WORKS
NO REPOSTS but if you're using my art as pfp or a banner or something of the likes, ask me or not as long as there's proper credit then you're good! (Linking any of my active platforms in my carrd portfolio). You can also e-mail me (linked in my portfolio as well in pinned post) for other permissions you wish to ask for such as dubbing my works or adding them to compilations, etc.
ART REQUESTS
I don't do them UNLESS I feel like it AND make a post about asking for ideas on any art requests y'all may have that I can draw when I feel like it.
PROGRAMS
I use Clip Studio Paint EX to draw and sometimes animate on. My usual animation program is Toon Boom Harmony. And I write on Notion. I also edit with Capcut, Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Audition. My usual editing program is Capcut though.
UNANSWERED ASKS AND DMS
DMs have been closed because of xxx-bots and because getting DMs overwhelms me. If I ended up not answering your ask, it's most likely either I thought I answered them in my brain but forgot to actually answer them physically or you didn't read the rules. Every time I forget to answer asks, I feel a bit embarrassed to go back on them when a couple of time has passed by so they end up staying unanswered for the most part... I'm sorry! Sometimes I just genuinely don't know what to answer so I end up not responding and/or I wanted to keep your ask in my ask box for saving purposes.
FANART
I don't understand why people always ask me permission to make fanart for me, genuinely. And I don't mean it in a mean way, I mean it in a "You're asking me... If you're allowed to not only express that you like my works through making a work of your own but also to put in the time and effort to do so... You're asking me if it's okay? When I should be the one worrying a bit about that because I would want to compensate for those fanart if I had all the money in the world." Short answer, fuck yes. And please tag me, I always want to see them so I can save them. Unless they're NSFW then uhhh, no, no thank you... Enjoy doing that I guess, but respectfully, don't ever show me lmao.
TIMEZONE
I'm always mostly online when people of Tumblr are asleep, vice versa, because my timezone is GMT+8. I'm Asian.
NSFW CONTENT
I only go as far as suggestive/spicy jokes, poses, touching, heavy swearing, and maybe gore every now and then. I don't do explicitly NSFW works, despite being an adult and having the freedom to do that.
YOUTUBE
Yes. Yes, I'm also on YouTube. Yes I'm aware that I have a decent amount of following there and would probably get side-eye comments if people from YouTube see my simpish shit here on Tumblr. Do I care? Nah. Cringe culture is dead to me, I do what I want. 👍
THANKS FOR READING, HAVE SOME FLOWERS! 💐

Lights, Camera, ANIMATION
This is mostly an outlet for myself to vent, so no sweat if you scroll on by. I watched a reaction video complain about the depth of field in a 3d animated piece, and how there’s no need to use those techniques because there’s “no camera” in animation. WHEW. Now, I will give them a lot of leeway because they’re reacting to things live, and not all opinions are allowed the time to form more cohesive thoughts. And I’ll also say they were totally fair to critique its frequent use of rack focus in the sequence.
But this plays into a broad issue that Western, specifically American, audiences have regarding animation. They see it as a genre and not a medium. A medium that can do allllllllll the genres live action can do. If I was the type to be buried or have a tombstone when I die, it would absolutely read: ANIMATION IS A MEDIUM. NOT A GENRE. JFC.
But back to the casual comment that had me gnashing my teeth: Yes, Margaret, there IS a camera in animation.  Whether it be all the ways traditional and digital animation can recreate different lens effects through other means, to programs having a robust camera feature as a layer/object/however it implements the tool. 
And along with the other tools we share with live action to tell a story: lighting, color, framing, blocking, editing...all that jazz, the camera and its variety of features are a big part of that. It’s an incredibly important tool in how we direct the audience to what’s significant in the scene and when to look at it. 
EXAMPLE TIME 
The Lion King has a poop ton of camera techniques just in the opening sequence. In a lot of 2d it’s applying a blur effect to recreate the use of lenses, but it’s the same thought process. From mimicking wide lenses to standard lenses, to more extreme changes to the depth of field, as with this use of rack focus.
Tumblr media
The below first shot would be overwhelming with deciding where to look if it used a wide lens. The 2nd you could argue would be less personal and emotional with the foreground and background elements in focus, pulling attention from her reflection.
Tumblr media
We recreate flares and bokeh effects as if a spherical lens were turned towards a light source. And paint backgrounds in a way that recreates the standards’ effect of blurring objects in the distance, as our own eye would.
Tumblr media
Arcane does every type of camera trick in the book. Rack focus can be a tricky one with me. I enjoy it when the lens doesn’t come with any extreme warping, and is really subtle. But y’all, filmmaking is just so cool with this god-like control. Thou shalt not see what is there until I deem it necessary! 
Tumblr media
I could be wrong on this one, but Kung Fu Panda’s all-out playground with depth of field looks like they’re creating a tilt shift effect in some sequences. And I frickin’ love it and wish more animated films went for it. The choice really made it feel like we were watching a miniature world that was real and not computer-animated, somewhat akin to stop-motion sets.
Tumblr media
Sigh. I just love the medium, y’all. From all the cinematic language and techniques, on top of the movie magic of simply creating the Illusion of Life from scratch, and making it look like one person crafted the whole shebang.
 So to cap it all off, let’s enjoy 2d animation going whole hog with a dang zolly.

What do you think about questions in writing? I had a high school teacher tell me once that there shouldn't be questions in writing and I took it to heart and go out of my way to avoid them, but sometimes it makes the writing clunky and awkward and I wish I had just used the question, especially in reference to a character's thoughts
I think I'm going to start using them, but sparingly
Thought it would be good to get your opinion though
I think like most techniques in writing, the real trick is to know what effect it has. And if that's the effect you want, fantastic, use it. If it's not, it's probably something you want to avoid.
And many techniques are best used sparingly. Rhetorical questions can be punchy and dramatic, they can emphasize insecurity, but they can also just...well...get annoying.
For example, here's a comment I got from one of my CPs in 2017, regarding questions in prose:
Tumblr media
And they weren't wrong. I rankled at it a bit first (as people often do at criticism, even when the criticism is justified and correct). But like many things my CPs have taught me over the years: what I was doing was, in fact, lazy and distracting when used too often and I have since noticed it myself in other people's writing and in my own.
If you're asking about that snippet I posted early with several questions in a row, well: I might edit that later. It just looks like that right now. But they're written as questions, I think, partly to emphasize that the character is questioning himself and his own worldview. His very fundamentals are being questioned. He's not just thinking a question.
And they might even come out later if it doesn't work!
What's the line of too often? It's too often when it becomes distracting (Note I used a rhetorical question there that I immediately answered myself).
Now, the thing is, you don't want to use filtering words instead. This is also not a great move most of the time, because it adds distance between the reader and character. Now, sometimes that will be your intent, but it typically...isn't.
So:
Was that all she needed? It was too simple, wasn't it? Why wouldn't they want more? Wouldn't they have asked for her necklace, or twice as much money? Didn't they want information or favors? Why hadn't they asked for it?
Is a lot of questions in a row.
But changing it to:
She wondered if that was too simple. She had thought they would ask for more. She had planned to give her necklace, or twice as much money, or even favors.
Is also not great.
Realistically, I would revise it to something like this:
That seemed far too simple. They could have asked for twice as much money. Her jewelry. Information. Favors, even. Something was wrong.
And here's an interesting note: when I first wrote up that revision, I ended it on "So why hadn't they?", which is still a rhetorical question. But I didn't actually need to use it. "Something was wrong," is just as close to this narrative POV, but it's not a question. It actually emphasizes what I want the reader to glean: that this is suspicious behavior, and my narrating character has clocked it. The fact that she's questioning it doesn't have to actually come in the form of a question.
She doesn't need to question the reader about it.
That said, a lot of high school English teacher advice is to be discarded in writing, especially when it comes to prose fiction or creative nonfiction. I had a lot of classmates in my creative writing college program who I think started writing essays for classes before fiction. There's nothing wrong with that, but you can tell that they learned to write for academia: Lots of passive voice, no fragments, no contractions, ever. Full-length paragraphs. And if you read an actual book, that's not what they read like. Those are instructions for a high school English essay, not fiction.
Also, my tenth grade English teacher wouldn't ever let us use the word "It" or any form of a "Be" verb. Now, she wanted to break us of the habit of using the Ambiguous It and misusing and overusing progressive tense (which is clunky and wordy), but damn, it also means you can't write, "Shakespeare was a poet," or "The protagonist is a young man in the 1800s," and instead have to write something like "Shakespeare lived in Elizabethan England as a poet," and "The story revolves around a young man living in the 1800s."
Let me tell you, I only managed to come up with those alternatives with an extra ten years of writing.
(Also one of my peer-editors tried to correct a "Be" verb usage in a quote, which is not how quoting works, and I hated this teacher for many reasons and this was only one of them).
She also gave us a sheet of "Sentence starters," which was a list of grammatical clauses that could open a sentence, and we had to use at least 8 different ones in our essays, which was inevitably awkward as hell and forced. English really just prefers the "subject-verb" opening to sentences, and sometimes adding a clause on there doesn't help.
So don't take your teacher's rules too strictly. Just consider why the rules exist and learn how use them.
English classes are best when they teach you rhetoric, especially in the early years. They should teach you how to construct an argument, and how to take one apart. They should teach you necessary reading skills and comprehension of what media is. They should be teaching literacy and reading comprehension. They aren't trying to teach you how to write a book.

I'm Working On A Magic Spell For Vacation/Escape Uses...Because Of Toxic-Masculinity
[Note: Reading This Is Optional, meaning no one has to read it if they don't want to and one of the tags for this post is "not for kids" so yeah there is that...and this will be talking about a type of Magic Spell I'm working on, even if it might take some time to fully finish...also this will be for Mature Audience Readers Only. this will at some point get a bit off topic and even talk about Incubus Encounters...]
first I want to say that I ended up sleeping for hours, yeah I knew that was possible, that I would fall asleep, but I didn't wake back up until I guess somewhere around 10 Pm...
anyway I will get to work on editing/fixing my posts from a few days ago, and I will post some fan-art after this as well.
anyway there was a spell I have been trying to use that was by someone else, but it just seems to not be working right away for me.
like one of the ways for it to work is that you have to sleep once one of the side effects shows and it needs to be night...
and some days ago when I did try the spell again, I had trouble getting to sleep, and yeah I had tried to do the spell again during that time.
and it is possible that the spell does work, but having the TV on while I sleep, may interrupt the intended place I wish to go to...
so I'm trying to work on my own Magic Spell that will be kind of like that one, but it will be different as well.
one of the reasons it will be different, is that it will have both English and Runic Alphabet on it.
writing the English part first and then writing it in Runic at the bottom, and then under that write the next part of the spell in English and then translate that half in Runic on the bottom of that...
well by the next page of the paper in some cases, I had to have more than one paper and staple them together.
but I hope to finish it before I run out or else I may have to unstable it and add a bit more paper.
and even though I can't really read Runic, I had to look up the Alphabet for it and what English part of the Alphabet that is suppose to be their counterpart...
I figured that if I write the spell I want in English and then write the Runic on the same papers, the spell may 100% work.
like even if I can't read Runic, my saying the spell in English should Translate onto the Runic and Vice-versa.
I will need to, perhaps program the spell for a certain way, like if it does let you Astral Travel to different Fictional Worlds, then my plan is to only go to Clone Timeline versions, just in case.
and yeah not everyone has to believe in such a spell, but I'm still gonna try to write my own version.
the spell is called "Transport To Any Fictional Reality Spell"
and the spell I have been trying to use that is by a Youtuber named Wolf Girl, and it can be possible that the spell that they made works for others even if at first few days it doesn't but then at some point it does.
and well the spell I have been trying to use is called "Transport To a Fictional World Spell"
I even wrote down the side effects just in case.
but I think I'm having trouble trying to get it to fully work, maybe because at times my mind wonders to different thoughts as I sleep, and I think it may have only half-worked but it ends up sending me to the wrong place or like not fully there...
cause there was the whole seeing some form of Popeye and Jetsons, even though I wasn't watch them and well the sound of what is on TV can enter into your dreams or like Astral Dream Space, and let you see the characters from that show, even if it is just one or a few of them.
maybe some time I will try to do their version of the spell again, but maybe if the whole runic thing works, I can try my best to re-write the spell on paper and add the runic translation below the english version.
and maybe once the spell I'm working on is finished, I may show it on here....maybe, but it is more of a personalized spell...
I even had to add my Dream Catchers into the mix, the one outside my door and the one currently in my room that isn't the bad energy one that I'm keeping as far away from me as possible and in one of those zip bags and I had threw maybe a lot of food salt in their with it.
cause once again I had to pray while holding the salt in my hands and then throw it in that bag that has the bad dream-catcher in it.
it was thanks to that third close call dream, that I decided to try to get a new one for in my room.
I should of known right away there was something wrong with it, and even if it is normal for me to see weird stuff when I dream...
plus the dream-catcher on my door should of kept that THING out and not let it through, so my guess is that the bad dream-catcher somehow open the barrier that is suppose to be around the room even on the windows, ceiling, floors and even the door.
cause like I said before, I had to claw at the eyes that time in the third close call, which was different from the first two close calls, where in the first one I understood what was going on and didn't go into the room and it was thanks to me becoming self-aware and understanding I had somehow dream-walked and lucky the dream changed, and when that second close call happen, maybe because I had took the dream-catcher down from in my room (which I am now using again but for on my bedroom door and it being outside the room.) I had to run and like I said, I was being protected by some old man who I can't remember the face of and there being a woman with long white hair and pale skin I didn't see the face of...
I know in that second close call dream, I was trying to find my Mom but I couldn't find her even though I ran out of the house and pass that old man who I believe played a part with that woman in protecting me.
one of the few reasons I wear my gem bracelets all the time, and only take them off when I need to, and well I had to wear less now and then there was that whole needing to re-do the program of them keeping me from moving something I hold by my fingers with my mind like my pendulum, and the program only broke that time because one of my bracelets were becoming too snug so I had to take it off, but then that thing started to happen again, and so I had to re-do it and make sure to pray to both the Heavenly Father and Earthly Mother for the gem bracelets to still work how I wanted them to, even if I have them off for long periods of time, like either all of them or one of them.
I don't mind if it's just necklaces that I hold, that either has a gem on it or it being a locket that moves like my pendulum, that is less freaky than the other stuff...
so yeah, I use my gem bracelets as sealing charms and limiters.
I think using the pendulum may have unlocked something, and yeah like I said before, the first time I held one it started to go all crazy and I wasn't even trying to make it move and I ended up putting it away for a long while after that first happen.
I did decide a few days ago, to tell my Mom about my ability and she was surprisingly understanding, I had to show it in a way by taking off my gem bracelets and then holding something by my fingers and telling it to move in a certain way like I would do with a pendulum.
but we know we can't really tell certain people in our family, because of how they are...
I mean this ability I had unknowingly unlocked is a part of me and I can't change that, it is possibly a part of both my blood and my soul.
I'm not sure if I can tell my family about the whole Aroaceflux thing, and yeah for me I can be both Aroaceflux and Fictoromantic.
I still think it could be possible that I may have been Demiromantic before, possibly...I know I fell for the wrong guys before, but I have no interest in trying to get another boyfriend even if the said boyfriends were guys I never really met in real life and were only online, and well the guys from the last place I use to live, never really showed a interest in me, even the ones I had a crush on before.
it is possible I wasn't always Aroaceflux but maybe I was a Demiromantic before, well some type of it...
anyway, if I did try to tell my family about my being Aroaceflux, I would have to explain to them as best as I can about it.
and for all I know, if I was always Aroaceflux, and didn't get to fully realize it until now, might be from the whole being around certain energies that made me feel a certain way at times and if I want to feel that way, I rather it be of my own accord and not because it is energy that is flying around the house and ends up coming into my personal space.
oh yeah, and the other reason I had started to wear gem bracelets when I sleep, has to do with Incubus.
I still think what I had experience was a Incubus, who even if they only got to touch me only for a split minute or second, it was enough to scare me awake.
and well I do use angel shaped gems for protection as well.
I wonder if certain types of Earth Angels are like catnip to them or something...?
I know it was dark and I know I was in between sleeping and awake, or like being self-aware, and even if I didn't see them but felt them, it was enough to scare me awake.
I'm not sure if the whole using gem for protection against some Incubus and succubus would work for everyone...
plus there is that whole possibility of my being a quarter succubus, but not working the same way, because I believe certain toxic-lust energies could place me in a trance and will make me dream-walk to where it is, which is why I need to protect myself.
I know I'm a Defective Earth Angel, and I don't work 100% the same as other Earth Angels, so I don't know if there are some who had to protect themselves by using gems as well.
I might not exactly be a quarter succubus, but more like something that a succubus use to be before becoming one, and I might be a hybrid version of it along with being a Earth Angel.
so yeah, possibly catnip to Incubus, but not everyone has to agree...
at least I'm trying to protect myself from both Incubus and human men's dangerous energies....and the men, being those who I know who need to control their lust energy and are the reason I have to have the dream-catchers both close to my bed and the on my door.
and for all I know, when half the time when certain energies would cause my seizures, that was caused by both people and a place, but has stop since we moved to the town we live at now...
and well it could be possible that the other half of the time, like at some point my body may have started to feed on well the energy I'm trying to protect myself from, it is like a toxic type that can be harmful, and it could be one of the reasons I would feel a certain way at times and there was a point where I really hated it because it felt like it was happening way too much and well lucky for me there was the whole being able to have my gem bracelets protect me from it and have them work for their multi-purpose use...
if I do feed on some energies, I rather it be some form of positive energies, like love and some form of joy, something that isn't as harmful as toxic-lust energy that someone in the house I live in, has been letting fly around and go into my personal space.
and yeah, you can still have your V-Card and still pick up those energies, it is like a flower with some sunlight, even if you are a bit away from the said person that is giving off the dangerous toxic energy, you can still pick it up if the energy is flying around and ends up in the room your in.
and the said person is also the one who ends up in those three close call dreams, well their energy taking the form of them and may not truly be them, but a copy that is formed from their toxic-lust energy.
they did try to move out before, which I was happy for, and I think I would of thought what happen the first time with that first close call dream was just a dream, but then it turn out they had some naughty books or dvds in their room that I didn't really see, but heard from someone else in my family, I can't remember if it was books or dvds, but I know they might use them way too much and give off too much toxic-lust energy that is harmful for my personal space when I sleep.
so that whole them having some naughty stuff in their room that they possibly use way too much and not giving a break, is the reason I need to protect myself from their toxic-lust energy...
so not only I have to protect myself from Incubus, but also Humans who are possibly mostly men, from their toxic-lust energy that ends up flying around the house and air, and if I do go to a place that has some humans giving off those type of toxic-lust energy, I'm making sure to keep my gem bracelets on and not to get too close to them.
anyway back to the topic of magic spells, I'm trying my best to work on the spell I'm working on for a type of Astral Travel, like even when my body is sleeping, my Astral-Body will go to where I want to go.
but I need to have the spell be program so it works with my dream-catchers (save for the bad one, that isn't part of the spell and I have to keep far away from me as possible...) and some can think it's silly and not believe it, it's okay...
but my reason to try to use a form of escape type vacation through Astral Travel, has to do with how the Masculine Energy is...
and if it works how I want, 9 months passing in the other world will be only 3 hours here, and I should make sure to eat enough of food when I sleep, and well have it be program on certain emergency even before the whole 3 hours in this world and 9 months in the other world are up, but maybe I wont have to worry about that...
Toxic-Religious people like that guy that peeved me off some hours ago, is one of the reasons I'm trying to go on a type of escape vacation...
and if that guy even bothered to watch the full episode of Hazbin Hotel, he would know that Princess Charlie is trying to redeem and help sinners.
and yeah I did try to skip that Toxic-Religious guy's video by some part of his video but I didn't watch the full video, and I'm glad I didn't.
Toxic-Religious people like that guy, and the one that had emotionally hurt me for believing in a Goddess now too, is one of the reasons I'm trying to get the frag out of here for some much needed healing vacation, even if it is for only once in a while and I can still do the other ways to take my mind off of people like that.
like watching a show or movie I like, reading some books I have and even some fan fics and even playing video games.
but I also want to use Astral Travel as another way as well, I can still enjoy watching some show or movie I like as well as reading the stuff I like to read and even playing video games because well that is something I enjoy.
another good reason to try this type of Astral Travel Spell, is to get away from Toxic-Satanist as well, who will of course be added to the whole Toxic-Religious ones, and I shouldn't be made to forgive the ones from my past life that had hurt me and are lucky I don't have much memory from that time and some past life memories come out as bits and pieces, but if those Toxic-Satanist were still alive even if they are from a past life that came before that one past life that is a bit closer to me that involves a hospital and my forgetting about it at some point but starting to remember it and had put the memory into a idea of a OC but then I put it on a different OC and well, I know I did post about it over at deviantart before, when I'm able to I will log back on there. but I'm still able to check out some stuff on there some days ago while not being log-in...I can look at art over there whenever even when I'm not log-in at the moment, but I will log-in when I feel ready to.
and anyway, I wonder if I would go Feral Earth Angel on some Toxic-Satanist, even if some people are Satanist, some of them do NOT cross a line that does harm and taints the soul of a innocent.
also even if Hazbin Hotel doesn't really have a type of religion that is 100% like the ones from real life, but any religion that is in the show would be a Ficto-Religion, and Toxic-Religious jerks like that guy needs to accept that.
if Charlie and Emily were real, I think I would be like that woman with that dog that became a meme and has fictional characters from a show or movie be used for it...
"I haven't known Emily for very long and only known Charlie for a few years....but if anything were to happen to both of them, I would go Feral Earth Angel Princess on EVERY one in this room....and then on Lute..."
normally it's "then myself" but there can be slight differences to that meme at times, and that meme came from some episode of some show I forgot the name of.
I know there was this one time I did kind of had went Feral because some jerk was picking on one of my cousins, and I had to be held back from going over to where they were at.
I never really got into a fight in real life before that involved punching and kicking someone, and well it could be tempting if they either mess with my family or even my food...
there was a time some stupid girls were taking their cat fight in a lunch room, and they knocked my food off and I was lucky to move out of the way...I should of grab them by their stupid selfish hair...
I only left that cafeteria mad and I think I looked back glaring, like possibly one of those glares that shows that your really peeved.
if some people are gonna do a fight, do NOT take it in a place where people are trying to eat.
I'm going to try my best with the spell I'm working on, so I can fully get out of this world even if it is only temporary and my time in another world will just be for 9 months in the worlds I choose to go to, while it will only be 3 hours here in this world.
and I believe by using runic letters with the english letters, could make the spell in theory work a bit more better for me.
and well hopefully I can finish the spell soon, so I can finally use it.
anyway it's okay not everyone believes in Magic, or by it's other spelling Magick...
but doing this is important for me, because some Masculine ones are doing Toxic-Masculine things that hurts the healing process for this world and there is the whole already fragile state between the Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine energies.
yeah it's good that the Divine Feminine had gotten better over the centuries, but it could be possible that energy is still going through healing and recovery.
and I refuse to let some Male-Angels who are influenced by Toxic-Masculine energy to cross a line they shouldn't, and I want to try to be a Knight and Shield, and hopefully some other Earth Angels realize this too...
and right now I'm listening to the song "Stronger Than You" Parody version that is suppose to be sang by Rose Quartz, Steven's Mom.
that parody version is by someone called Rachel Michelle.
the song matches the feelings and thoughts about the Toxic-Masculine.
even if my soul being born was a accident but it was allowed to be born...
I still want to live and want things to get better, and one of the things that need to change is the domestic abuse on the feminine side.
yeah the Toxic-Feminine is still a problem, but it isn't as high or as dangerous as it's Masculine counterpart.
and no matter which Angel is suppose to be Grunkle-Grandpa Cain's Dad...they aren't the boss of this Evengingstar Princess/Earth Angel Princess.
if some who are also descendants of both Cain and Seth, they might understand the whole calling them both Grunkle-Grandpas.
Adam can still be considered Cain's true dad, even if not by blood but sometimes your true parent wont always be the biological ones.
Rose and Sharon from that Silent Hill Movie is proof of that.
and I hope there will truly be a third movie based off the video game.
Adam and Eve should of been better parents to Cain and Abel...
be there for Cain when he was going through a very bad depression that would reach a dangerous breaking point...
and stop Abel from misusing animals, he should not be allowed to be close to or place his hand on fluffy-babies.
and if it were possible, I would give Abel the cold hands to face punishment as well, and also maybe on Cain as well.
Lucifer is still on that list, for the cold hands to face punishment.
Adam and those Three Angels that broke Lilith past a very bad breaking point, and couldn't respect her space when she needed it.
those four should also get the cold hands to face punishment.
I might not go by Christian anymore and go by Neo-Spiritual, and well I can believe that Lilith was real and that she was Adam's first wife before Eve, and that stuff happening may have happen before the different type of factions of religions we have in today's modern world.
and yeah even if Adam got better over time, even being a Gray-Parent along with Eve. it still doesn't excuse him for the harm he played a part of along with those Three Angels who tried to make Lilith return to Adam, that is NOT love or respect for someone.
the Three Angels that are suppose to protect, are in a way could be redeeming themselves, but it still wont change the charm they played a part in.
the Patriarchy being made to seem more important than the Matriarchy, doesn't help at all and yeah ya can't really change the mind of some humans who believe the Patriarchy is more important and the whole imbalance may play a part in that.
I hope the spell I'm working on can help a lot, and maybe I can try do do a type of healing spells that can help whenever I have one of my feeling a bit down days, which lucky I'm not feeling right now.
guess having a depression in 2015 and then on 2016, can be a bit harmful to one's emotional core.
I believe that second depression I had that lasted a bit longer than the one from 2015, may have been on 2016 and I think it lasted until December 2017 I think....of course at some point some months later I think it was around 2018 I got sick, I think that was the year I got sick and was throwing up and when I was getting a bit better from being sick, my first cat was....you know, slowly leaving us.
I think it could be possible they had the same thing my second cat had before, but lucky for my second cat, they were taken to the vet on time and they are back to their sweet fluffy-baby self.
and yeah, my thoughts if they my second cat wasn't taken to the vet on time or if anything went wrong while they were at the vet...
I would do a Omnigeddon, even if it was just a thought and might not be possible....but I would freeze the 5th Heaven and The Wrath Ring if anything bad happen to my precious fluffy baby that is my second cat before it is truly their time, and I want them to live a very VERY long time.
and if I did one day but not too soon, became a Mom well a Nonbinary-Gal one that goes by She/Her & They/Them still...
and if anyone tries to do some form of harm to my earth angel baby, I think I would still want to freeze the 5th Heaven and The Wrath Ring, and I have reasons to pick those two pacifically.
anyway I can still do stuff to calm the times when I get peeved off, like getting really mad.
like one of them being to talk about it, but that doesn't mean I will talk about everything, other ways can be to listen to music and maybe watch a show or movie I like and if I want to, do some reading.
and drawing can be a good way I guess, and writing as well.
anyway there is some magic spells I wouldn't want to mess with, some that might not be a good idea, but I think my using the spell I'm trying to work on and adding runic into it, might be a good thing.
and maybe I can try to write a type of healing spell and maybe a protective barrier spell that will also have both the English and Runic Translations on them.
I'm lucky that freaky thing that has been happening with the Radio only happens once in a while, but it still reminds me a bit of Alastor from Hazbin Hotel. XD
at least it isn't 100% like his power over the Radio, thank goodness.
anyway since I took that long nap, and well I have been writing this for a few hours and it has become tomorrow now...
I will still stayed log-in and check out some fan-art and also post some fan-art of my own and even talk about some fan theories.
maybe later, like hours from now I will work more on the "Transport To Any Fictional Reality Spell" even if it be like a Astral-VR, it doesn't matter so long as it works and there are protections added into the spell, as well as allowing a type of Avatar being created that acts as a type of Vessel for my Astral-Body until it is pulled back to this reality.
I will need to add that to the spell, and when I say Astal-VR I mean like a Astral Virtual Reality. but I'm sure some understood that already.
and yeah, I can still the other stuff I enjoy, but I also want to try this to help the need of escaping from the Toxic-Masculine energy.
and even if I do decide to show the spell on here, even if I can't show the runic parts of it unless I try to draw them, but the spell I'm working on might not work for everyone, because well ya would probably need a dream-catcher, well more than one, one for where you sleep, and one hanging outside your door to your room.
and well I might think it over about showing the finish spell on here, but I will also have to make sure to say that it might not work for everyone because of the program that will be placed onto the spell.
and I can only hope once it's finish, I can use it for that type of escape and vacation. even if in this world it will be around 3 hours but in the worlds I choose to go to, it will be 9 months...
that is what I want to program into the spell, and had wrote down the time limit of the spell, even if in that one spell I had tried to use that is by someone else, the time limit is a bit different, but I think programing the spell to be 3 hours here but 9 months in another world, works perfectly.
I wont expect everyone to understand, but maybe only a few do.
but to me, I really need this spell to work on the first try or even by the second try or however many tries even if it is just a few tries before it finally fully works, but I hope it works on the first try.
it be nice if someday I can get a VR Headset, and not just ones that seem like one like that one I have for my Nintendo Switch...
but getting a VR Headset that is like you can just look through while playing the Nintendo Switch or Xbox without it being hooked up and not really being technology type, could be a good alternate version of the VR Headsets that do work as the technology type and needs to be connected...
and if the spell works, it will be my own way to go to a type of Astral-Virtual Reality.
anyway not everyone has to agree about my plans with the spell, but I need it to work and I want to use it to escape on a type of vacation even if it will only be a type of vacation I take only once in a while.
but what is going on with the Toxic-Masculinity that crosses a line, and hurts the balance between the good side of the Masculine and Feminine energies is one of the reasons I want the spell to work.
getting away from the Toxic-Femininity, even if it isn't as high as it's counterpart, would just be a bonus to the spell working.

Proposal
Vinh Nguyen [email protected]
Working Title:
I Had To
Software, Material, and Technical Needs:
Program: After Effects, Premier, Pro Tools
Technical Needs: Mix Pre, A few old TV’s, and a Projector.
Found footage of old childhood tapes potentially
Medium(s):
Found footage. Projection.
Installation:
I’m not sure how many TV’s I would want but I want an old TV or two to be sat in between a projector and backdrop. It’ll have a loop of found footage (most likely a snippet of what I use within the film) playing while the projector projects repeated words onto it and as well as the backdrop. The TV(s) will cast a shadow on the backdrop itself and inside I want a little note to be hung with a little note. Maybe the message will say something provocative like “I’m not okay but, I have to be”. 
Aesthetic:
I’m going for a real “crunchy” found footage look when it comes to my visuals. Repeated words on a couple of screens aided with a projection on top of old TV’s. I haven’t solidified colors yet but, I might do something like a neutral yellow or muted oranges. Something that symbolizes the draining feeling of day to day mindless tasks. 
Pick a theme(s):
A monotonous lifestyle with a hint of grief and, maybe/possibly, a hint of commentary. 
The Written Proposal:
With this film I want to tackle a couple of things: As you know I want to make a film that can represent the monotony of living a day to day life. Something akin to feeling like a robot. That monotony can stress and stress until something breaks and all those unwanted thoughts and feelings find their way in. I want to achieve this exact feeling with this film. There are ugly things we tend to forget or shove aside and they don’t find their way in until we’re vulnerable to them. And ultimately we either run from them or accept them and walk with it. I want to reach a conclusion with this piece. I want to be able to let those thoughts wash over in that moment of vulnerability and come to terms and accept them. Maybe not a truly happy ending but more of an acceptance. Because I want to bookend the film with a similar repetition but, instead of it feeling like a slog, maybe, perhaps, it’s repeated with a certain resilience. 
There are many ways I wish to execute this film. One of the ways is to use found footage that can represent the repetition of a day to day life. I don’t know what’s at my disposal but a few obvious ones that come to mind are things such as: A populated highway, people walking in the streets, people working (factory workers would really drive this home), and similar things of that nature. Things that feel cluttered and busy almost to a point where it feels suffocating. And when the film enters the vulnerability state the footage used will be something that’s less beat to beat and more space in its moments. Visuals that linger just a tad too long and evoke this sense of fear or danger. Something like a slow crawl toward an edge of a cliff or potential use of empty liminal spaces. Another visual aspect I want to use to supplement the found footage is the use of repeated words on a couple of TV screens. I want to touch on this fact that the more you tell yourself something the more it can become a lie. That at first the lie can act as a shield to motivate resilience. But eventually that lie can crack. Coming to the question of what happens when the lie that has kept you going doesn’t help you any more? 
As far as sound goes I want to do my own sound design. This will range from recording my own voice, editing, and even a song to go with it. I’m thinking of something like a repeated note of some sorts that can eventually turn into something haunting or melodic when the flow of the film starts breaking. I want the sounds to be very glitchy and crunchy. Almost like the speaker’s voice is deteriorating as the film progresses. Specifically when we get to the breaking point where the sounds and voice will be moving around the audio space. 
The script will be a spoken poem. Specifically a revised poem titled “I Had To”. It’s a poem that deals with similar themes of repetition in life to the point where it will break you. The pressure of doing something over and over again cracks any strong will and invites these unwanted feelings. Before the revision the conclusion of the poem was to accept these feelings as law with a negative outlook. But revisiting it years later with a mature mindset I’ve revised it so that the voice of the poem chooses to sit in these feelings and comes to terms with it. It’s been a very cathartic journey looking back at what a younger me was feeling and how far I’ve come now. While not overcoming a lot of these emotions, I’ve definitely accepted them rather than run.

Level 3: Blog Entry (Player Profile)
Part 1: Gather Information
I conducted three interviews and read an article. For interviews, I had the same main questions (How familiar are your with citations? How much do you play games? How much do you play learning games?) and followed these up in reaction to the participants’ answers. (i.e., what sort of games do you like? Do you have any struggles with citations? etc.)
Interview 1 Summary: 20′s female college grad
Self identifies as “gamer” (over 150 games in Steam library alone)
Does not enjoy social games, prefers playing alone
Familiar with MLA citations, used EasyBib and often ran into issues when struggling to find information or if entered incorrectly
Learned citations in high school, never in college (beyond the syllabus pointing it out as needed)
Greatest learning wish: a chance to practice the order of citation and identifying the source material type
Interview 2 Summary: 20′s female graduate student
Citations used often in grad school
Played learn to type games (Garfield’s Typing Pal), math games (Star Wars Jabba’s Game Galaxy), as an adult could not think of any to start, had to check library (5D Chess with Multiverse Time Travel, You Don’t Know Jack Trivia Murder Party, etc.)
Remembered liking the characters who would interact with the player’s answers
Enjoys learning games with a story or element of fantasy, specifically mentioned player avatars and companions positively
Dislikes poor graphics and visuals
Pointed out that games that assume you know the material are too difficult, enjoys some sort of reference if incorrect
Interview 3 Summary: 30′s male graduate student
Familiar with APA 7th citations, uses in current program
Greatest struggle with citations is catching mistakes in references page and remembering formats as typing (dyslexia font helps, reading/edit buddy as well)
Considers self a “gamer”
Enjoys exploration and story in games
Dislikes games and learning games that look “amateurish”
Notes that quality of learning games is perceived to be lower, “looks bad, plays bad, doesn’t have the same [love] put into them as [non-learning] games”
Standards for physical games is “admittedly lower,” but still requires “thought” in the design and interesting concepts/characters/settings/mechanics/etc.
Article Summary: Clark & Murphy. (2020). The Efficacy of a Classroom Game for Teaching APA Style Citation.
In a study of 90 undergrads: students were given a 75 minute lecture on APA citations, then played a game where they chose a celebrity’s name and a year from a cup. They then made up a citation that could make sense. The study’s pre and post assessments showed it was effective at increasing the students’ ability to remember citation methods, as well as encouraged engagement.
Part 2: Develop Learner-Player Persona
Tumblr media
Part 3: Testing LP Persona
The in-browser games would likely not satisfy my LP persona. Their actual game elements and design are too low and underdeveloped to be attractive as a game, meaning they would likely be perceived as a chore. They would be looking for more immersion. The physical games, posing a social aspect, may cause distress as their struggles with dyslexia would be highly visible. The variety in tasks may be appealing though. Overall, I believe the entire list of my market research games would be frustrating to the persona.

H p rpn scientific calculator
Tumblr media
HP 32Sii - Not as powerful as some other units that I have listed, but one of the best designed calculators and is extremely easy to use. HP 41CVX - a slightly beefed up version of the HP 41CV, and it has a clock Without modules like this, its power is a bit on the modest side. HP 41CV - the best keyboard of all, a very powerful machine with augmented with application modules (like the advantage pac). HP 15C - Great but I must say over-rated, certainly not as good as its descendent, the HP 42S HP 42S - IMHO the best scientific calculator HP 48G - the non-expandable version of the HP 48GX, has less internal memory HP 48GX - super powerful, but not so easy to use I consider this unit forever relevant, forever great, and a testament to the awesome status that HP once had as the King of manufacturing calculators for REAL ENGINEERS!!!! It has become part of who I am as an Engineer, and it actually transpires confidence (as another author once wrote, and I agree). The physical design is superb, and the calculator is simply beautiful. When I am away from my desk and in a lab or meeting I have found that the HP 32SII always has what I need to quick calculations and simple yet very useful programming tasks (and its programmabilit y is GREAT by the way!). What we need is versatility, ease of use, and enough functionality to be effective when we are not sitting at our desks, where there would likely be desktop access to tools like MATHCAD, MATLAB, etc. What I mean by that is that Engineers today do not really require the over abundance of functions that the more powerful units possess. As I stated in previous reviews, it is not the most powerful, but it is one of the most useful and versatile calculators in a modern context. The HP 32SII really is the best true calculator that HP has ever designed/manufactured. I wish HP would bring back the HP 32SII as a "Special Edition Anniversary" offering. I still love it, and I will always recommend this HP model to all my engineer friends and anyone who does some heavy calculations. It has served me well over the years and I hope for many years to come. I would highly recommend this calculator to any science student or engineer who would like a very accurate and reliable calculator as their day to day work horse. I've owned several calculators since my original 32SII, but none really compare. The fact HP stopped making what I feel was the best calculator in the history of HP. HP no longer repairs this model of calculator. My only dislike about this great calculator is the inherent problems after years of use, (internal errors) all calculator have some type of problems after awhile and HP lets you run tests on the internal workings so if you do purchase one of these 32SII calculators make sure you run the built in test on all functions of the calculator. My original one began to have issues a couple of years ago, so I purchased a new model of the HP calculator (42 and 33S) both great calculator, but it was nothing like my original 32SII As an engineer I rely on my calculator on a day to day basis. I purchased this HP 32SII calculator because I originally owned one when they first came out in 1989. Great calculator, but unfortunately they do not mfg.

Screentendo Transforms your Computer Screen into a Playable Mario Game
Screentendo may be the answer for you if you're bored at work and wish to put off work.
The app allows you to transform any website into a playable version of the iconic 80s Nintendo classic Mario Bros.
The creator of the site has provided step-by-step instructions on how to convert the pages into blocks. However it requires some programming knowledge.
Scroll down to view the video
Super Mario code has been created by a developer from London. Screentendo is an application that allows you to transform a website into 'blocks.' Minecraft Crafting Recipes Mario can then be controlled on the stage, like in the game. It will require some programming to make this feature work. This is the MailOnline logo that was created using Screentendo
Screentendo was designed by Aaron Randall, a London-based developer.
By dragging a window over the web page, different elements can be transformed into blocks from the Super Mario games.
Avengers fans, get together! Limited edition Iron Man Galaxy S6... The silent missile that could take out enemy electronics... Beware the text message that could crash your phone: Malicious... Wake up and smell the coffee: Alarm clock wafts aromas of...
50 shares
Mario himself appears later, allowing players to move around the makeshift level and to destroy the blocks.
ANGRY BIRDS to BATTLE MARIO IN ORDER to ENTER HALL of FAME
15 video games that have captivated gamers for hours have been picked as finalist for the World Video Game Hall of Fame.
The list includes arcade trailblazers Pong and Space Invaders, smartphone favourites Angry Birds and Minecraft and a variety of other games for consoles and computers.
They are: Doom, FIFA soccer the Legend of Zelda, the Oregon Trail, Pac-Man, Pokemon, the Sims, Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Mario Bros, Tetris and World of Warcraft.
And to actually utilize it, you'll need to be fairly adept at altering source code, and using a program called CocoaPods.
When Screentendo is launched, a semi-transparent windows appears, which can be moved and resized in relation to other windows in the application as explained by the author on his website.
"After placing the Screentendo Window over a specific area of the screen and then clicking inside it, the app will render levels that is based on the content beneath it."
Mr Randall said to MailOnline that he developed the application 'in several days'.
He claimed that the most difficult aspect of the application was the image processing. This required making the app know how to process any type of image and the structure that underlies it to create a level.
He said that it can be used on any site, but is most effective on pages with a high degree of contrast.
Screentendo is an early Super Mario Bros. screenshot that is shown. Screentendo is currently only available for Macs. The code can be downloaded from GitHub. Mr Randall notes the app is an experimental hack in the moment and has some flaws
Mr. Randall added that he constructed it because he loves making things, particularly smaller projects like this.'
He said: 'It's a great excuse to learn new languages and frameworks, and try to solve some intriguing problems that you would not normally tackle.
"The idea came in a conversation with a colleague. He is often looking at graphs that track our servers and I joked that I'd create an application that overlays these graphs to make them more interesting.
Mr Randall stated to MailOnline that he created the software in a matter of days. He claimed that the most challenging part of the program was the image processing. This involved making the app understand how to take any kind of image, and the structure that it is based on in order to create a level.
