hey!! can i ask for a color palatte description for the ro's? like what their hair/eye colors are?

hope you're having a good week 💙💙💙

Hi!

I spent a long time putting together a graphic for this before I realised that you asked for just a description haha... oops. well. here is the graphic anyway XD

If you're looking for a link to the page with more general descriptions, there are some on the RO's page.

Very sorry for the delay in replying! My life is. hectic. smdnfgbsfgf

#what does the chaos mirror see #twyliit #if you want to use these i'd recommend zooming in because some of them have detailing but unfortunately tumblr seems to have destroyed it #or at least hidden some of it in ensmallening #it was very difficult to find a shining silvery enough colour for suchebh's hair and eyes #and i regret i could not find an eye colour for twilit that captured the necessary distressing pastel neon toothpaste vibe i was seeking #i am not an artiste i'm afraid. i wish i could do proper ones of these with. undertones as such #but alas #also just rambling in the tags here for a bit but. i got an ask this morning accusing the game of being a scam #because it hasn't updated for ages #and like bro. scam... it's not like i took preorders msnbgsmdnfgb. i have to Laugh #once again deeply sorry to the small number of people concerned with how much my homelessness was an inconvenience For Them<3 #finally got my life somewhat back on track after months of teetering on the edge of the abyss (rude of me not to spend it all writing) #but in service of getting my life back on track i'm studying. so that i can get a job later and continue to survive. again. Selfish. oops #and then my beloved cat died. and there just. isn't anything to keep going for anymore LMAO #but alas. so long as the music plays. we dance #and this game is part of the dancing for me. i guess. i still work on things when i have the time #hopefully you'll recover from my terrible circumstances<3

A new sculpture! Finally... I feel like I never sculpt anymore since I'm always sick or have some 500 other things going on or projects to finish, but I'm trying to schedule time to do it more often this year hopefully..! Just a generic fantasy creature as usual, but did try making the eyes a little more sparkly this time.. hrmm..

#sculpture #fantasy art #fantasy creature #art #elf #lol what are the tags I should use... I still never know.. EVIL social media.. hate the idea of tagging anything ever anyway. but alas.. #I also would ideally like to start selling them again and open up custom commmissions and stuff again once I can hopefully get paypal #stuff sorted out. and find like.. a good way to do things.. etc.. I did still want to sell them through auction instead of agonizing #over setting prices being afraid they're either too high or too low. So being able to just be like. Here. this is $50. or more. or less. #negotiate. the worth is whatever you feel like it is so i personally dont have to make that decision. etc. lol... But etsy doesn't let you #do auctions or like pay what you want type stuff so.. then I was thinking ebay? but idk.. ANYWAY.. I want to set things #up so I can sell stuff again hopefully. I still haven't fully recovered from the costs of when I had to take my cat to the vet and put #them down last year and etc. So it'd be good to sell a few things. perhaps.. maychance... perhamble... so on and so forthe... ANYWAY #I was going for whiter more milky sort of hair that blends in closely with the skintone but after the paint dried it seems more yellowy kin #of. which is fine. But just not exacltly like my mind vision lol.. #Also it's like... wow... someone with face spots and elf ears and a half open mouth with a gap tooth and wavy hair and kind of downturned #eyes... revolutionary... never been seen before... every sculpture I have ever made surely doesnt look licherally exactly like this... LOL #but maybe it's just a style. so what. People have their motifs lol.. Im just getting back into sculpting. I shall sameface in peace. huzzah #Just like the only thing I ever carve out of avocado pits anymore is eyes. Because that's just whats fun to do. I'm going to accumulate lik #25 similar avocado eyes and have nothing to do with them. I was thinking of stringing some together into a necklace of eyes or something li #like that but.. hrmm... ANYWAY.. Love to do the same things repetitively. :3c

[robinsnest2111]

came across a tutorial video on how to fold a bandana to have cat ears :3c

#metalocalypse #pickles the drummer #robin's art adventures #idk how to properly draw people playing instruments and at this point i'm too afraid to learn and will continue to just wing it #headcanoning toki saw the tutorial and begged pickles to wear his bandana like this lol #a new cat drummer has joined my repertoire lmao #just a quick sketch. will be back with proper finished art some other time :')

It's difficult to describe growing up my entire life thinking my copy of All Dogs Go to Heaven 2 was in fact simply All Dogs Go To Heaven.

The last thing I remember from this property was watching An All Dogs Christmas Carol.

I have located the first movie, which I have never seen.

THE TONE SHIFT. IS. RATHER JARRING, FOLKS.

Imagine if you always thought that The Secret of Nimh 2 was the actual movie The Secret of Nimh... and then one day you saw the original.

#original #all dogs go to heaven #don bluth #dom deluise #what the FUCK is going on?? did this dog jusf a #*did this dog just ADOPT A HUMAN CHILD #I'll be honest I'm skimming because I'm afraid of getting too sad right before bed. #it is by its nature about dogs dying so #but also it about HELL maybe #so #I mean so is the 2nd one but there were some weird 90s animated animal sequel Vibes that are a different flavor to this #this is like some secret of nimh shit. don bluth you old rascal you! #as I remember at the original secret of nimh is a super dark intense SCARY animated kids movie that I grew up on and have fond feelings on #and the sequel to this chilling tale of animal experimentation and mutation and torture and magic... #a big ol' MUSICAL with funny animal friends! - mind you it has been a minute... #the secret of nimh #secret of nimh #I remember the animation being fucking beautiful. I'll have to check it out again. #okay great [sarcasm] it's time for some racist animation bc ofc it is. skipping ahead to cat satan.... #oh jesus even on fast forward this is very bad #this dog is her dad i giess #*i guess #that's fine. i mean he's a bad father but #is Charlie a fucking mob boss what is happening i skipped too far ahead i will watch it thru later the edibles haaave hit #omg charlie is a terrible father #unrelated but the way they animate this anthro dog in this movie would have turned me into a furry for sure if i had seen it as a kid #which if anything is a missed opportunity. I'd probably be a better artist if i was! someday they'll accept my application...😤 #these dogs are gay

Insomnia gifted me some more important moments for the AU and there's one braincell running the whole place on that energy like *kicks feets and giggles, presses respiration button, goes through the five stages of grief at once, presses blink button, resumes giggling*

#Skye says stuff #shippy stuff aside the Aurelia stuff and Aurene moments are GOOD. I know I said this AU won't become my canon but like. alt canon mayhaps? #the energy is stored in the blorbos #I'm actually quite sleep deprived and afraid to know whether I'll have the energy for today and tomorrow. no party for me tonight for sure #there's a cat-disturbed nap in my near future. then some baking and hopefully finishing a commission. maybe I'll mush my brain with trib #still! tomorrow I see friend! and get my fursuit! ᵃᵃᵃᵃᵃ

yesterday I did an assessment where I had to talk pretty extensively about my OCD and I'm still sitting back and thinking about it and how it's one of the things I never get to talk about. I think people are being more open about OCD and it's been nice knowing that I'm not alone, but at the same time I've felt more alone than ever since getting my diagnosis. Like what am I supposed to do with this y'know

#cool i know how to label my feelings now #i still have to check and throw away perfectly good food if I'm afraid there's even a slight problem with it #i still can't get a cat because I won't be able to stop thinking about hurting it #i still get scared of going out because I can't stop thinking about pushing people into traffic #or jumping into traffic myself #i still can't be without some kind of a distraction or I'll be subject to visions of extreme gore and violence #I now have an important first step to learning how to manage it but it'll still be something i always have to manage #so many things i know i would never want to do but I can't make the thoughts go away. I'm scared of myself

[jonny-b-meowborn]

y'know I really wish that people would use animal language for me (paws instead of hands, fur instead of hair, stuff like that), in a weird way it feels similarly to having my gender affirmed, but at the same time I'd never have the balls to ask anyone to do it

#i think im mostly afraid of people thinking its like a sex thing #while its more like. i am a cat/dog in some way and i wish people would acknowledge that #but also i know that for people who dont feel this way too it could be weird or uncomfortable #to call someone who they perceive as human a dog #and yknow. i am aware that im not actually a dog. but i wish i were #i have a complicated relationship with the therian label and I'm still not sure if i want to call myself that #again quoting patricia taxxon who kinda perfectly sums up these feelings #im that kind of autistic where i have an animal brain. kind of #idk man its weird and complicated and i wish it was simpler but oh well #meow #bee buzz

I can understand having a preference for one type of pet over another, for a wide variety of reasons (e.g. allergies, what goes in to taking care of them, your lifestyle, etc) but I'll never understand people who hate a certain type of pet. Like self-professed cat people who say they hate dogs, or vice versa. I've had dogs my entire life, and I consider myself a dog person, but I do like cats, too. Why wouldn't I? They're soft and cute and do funny things sometimes. Even when it comes to pets that I don't find as interesting, like fish, I don't hate them. And even ones I'm legitimately scared of, like tarantulas . . . again, I don't hate them, I'm just afraid of them, just like I'm afraid of all arachnids. It's an irrational fear, but it's one deeply ingrained in me nonetheless.

Anyway.

I just don't understand when people are like "I hate cats" or "I hate dogs" . . . how can you hate an entire species of animal? Being allergic or afraid, okay, I can understand that. Even if I don't understand being afraid because you've been attacked before (I have been severely bitten by dogs and severely scratched up by cats), I'm afraid of arachnids even though I can't remember the last time I had a spider bite, so you know, fears are fears, you can't control them. But hate? I just don't understand it, man. Hate an individual animal, sure. Just like humans, individual dogs or cats can have bad temperaments and behaviors. But a whole species? When most of the individual animals in those species are so easily befriended? It just makes no sense to me. Again, I get having a preference for one pet over another, especially if the needs of one animal suit your lifestyle while the needs of another don't. But to hate a whole species . . . I will never understand.

#again i get phobias or traumas etc #like for instance i have trauma surrounding ants and roaches so if i see even ONE in my house it can trigger a panic attack #but that's a bit different than companion animals too - not that those can't be pets but like. idk. #i mean i DO know it's just . . . it's a little more understandable to me if someone has a problem with insects #versus if they have a problem with companion animals that are meant to be companion animals. but even then it's like #ok. i used to say ''i hate frogs and toads'' which might make me seem a hypocrite #but the truth is that i don't hate REAL frogs and toads. i hate ANIMATED / CARTOON ones #bc when the alt right was using pepe so much years ago my brain linked the two together & so even tho i know pepe's creator renounced them #the sight of him still makes me a little nauseous and it spread toward other frogs #(i also hate Greninja in particular for 1.) being gross and 2.) the behavior of Ash stans but that's another matter) #POINT IS - even with that distinction i never hated a whole species of animal. i just don't get that. even wasps i know DO have a purpose #and i never go out of my way to bother them. in fact i used to work in a house where they had an entire room of the house to themselves #we just didn't mess w/ them. but that's off-topic again #i just. idk. i consider myself a dog person but cats are also great #i just love animals. even the ones i'm afraid of i wish i could like #(and to be fair i do like some i'm healthily afraid of. like i love bears but if i saw a grizzly or polar bear coming for me) #(i would probably piss myself LMAO. i love them from a distance.) #anyway. animals are great. i love animals. more people should give animals a chance to be loved

#i'm back home after one of the worst nights of my life #my cat fell from the kitchen window #i live on the 4th floor #i was locked in my room for like an hour #only then i realised he's gone and this was at midnight #after that i walked the whole neighbourhood twice yelling after him #i looked everywhere in the house and everywhere in the parking lot and behind and around every block and he was nowhere #i came back upstairs and i cried for some good 30-45 minutes harder than i ever cried in my life #i almost gave up for the night when i decided to drag myself out of bed and roam the neighbourhood again at 3am #i was kind of numb at this point and i was in no hurry #which is why i decided the best course of action is to check under every car touroughly #and that's when i found him #just several steps from where he probably fell but he was so so so scared he wouldn't move at all #his face was obviously bleeding a lot but i didn't know much else #i somehow managed in the end to grab him from under the car and i ran to the emergency vet #its 5am now and im back home and i was told he will be ready to be discharged this morning until noon #which is amazing #im so happy that internally he is alright #he cannot walk without dragging himself so his paws need some casts #and his face was a bit dislodged and im afraid it might stay like that but otherwise he is ok and he is safe and i found him #which is all that matters #the guilt i feel right now made me self destructive for the first time in years #i will cat proof every inch of the apartment #i rambled a lot im sorry #had to get it out

Poll adventure (paventure? lol) Day 5: read the small story tidbit below the poll for more details, OR just vote based on initial impression

(✦ see past poll results + further information HERE (link) ✦)

The winning option of yesterday's poll was that the adventurer should choose a suspicious egg as his gift ….

"He carefully plucks the egg from the gift pile, wrapping it in spare fabric and tucking it away inside a small wooden box within his backpack for safety. Not really wanting to stick around and get accidentally pulled into scary underground tunnels or something, he shakily bids the Well Creature farewell, and continues on through the forest, just following whatever he can find that looks vaguely like a path.. He makes an occasional stop to pick up a cool rock, harvest berries, or let the cat play in the grass, but mostly just wanders aimlessly, lost in daydreams and contemplations of how his New Fun Life Of Spontaneous Adventure is going so far......

Eventually, the forest tapers off into a more open area of land, hosting what seems like a humble little village. By this point, it's nearly nightfall, which reminds him that he's actually quite afraid of the dark, so he scrambles about town for a moment until finally finding the local Inn. After nervously stumbling inside, he rents the cheapest room available, then sits alone, snacking on some free leftover food scraps and plain water. It's been a tiring day, but in the spirit of becoming an adventurer and pushing himself to have as many experiences as possible, he figures he could hang around downstairs a little longer, perhaps get one more thing done before bed -- What should he do?"

#paventure posting #polls #choose your own adventure #Sorry I have the opposite problem to people who make characters who are too overpowered and good at everything lol #Everyone has to be fumbling around in roles that are not actually suited towards them that much (like a wandering #adventurer who is also afraid of the dark . not generally all that brave. instead of a trusty steed or something useful #he has like 5 coins and a piece of bread and a little cat. etc #) but that's the point! He wants to get out and try. He doesnt' actually know much what being an adventurer entails but he still wants to #go and adventure and see the world. leave whatever his old life was behind and just let himself be led by whatever paths happen #to present themselves to him - in the hopes that at some point along the way he'll end up with something fulfilling or know #where he actually belongs. blah blah generic adventuring stuff. so on and so forth. He can't have too specific of motivations really #just by the nature of everything he does being randomly voted on lol. So just 'generally seeking to be on a journey' works. #I wonder if that's the fantasy world version of a mid-life crisis. People reach a certain age and are just like 'I'm going to leave #my village and wander around and see what happens!!' and sometimes it works out and they become a famous #cartographer or a well known knight or work their way into a job in castle or etc. etc. and then others just return home after #like a week or something with no money and a broken arm lol #ANYWAY #I wanted to have so many options since an Inn is a good place where many branching paths could come from like. there could be such a #variety of people to talk to and things you could do there. but I'm still trying to limit it to 6 or less options each time #I wanted to have a second mysterious hooded figure described as trying very hard to look much more mysterious than #the first hooded figure but there isn't room for that with the text limits lol. but I thought it would be funny with like.. the fantasy #trope of there always being some shadowy guy in a corner in a tavern or something. but then you look and there's another even more shadowy #guy. then you look in the next corner and there's an even MORE shadowy guy. and sometimes they all stare at each other from #across the room. one of them pulls their hood down a bit and the other does it and they keep doing it until their faces are so covered they #cant see anymore. etc. etc. ANYWYA Ghbjhb #yeah! day 5!

I am so tired of being stressed/anxious/worried.

#ain't no stress like old cat stress bc old cat stress don't stop #robo was acting funny this morning but I'm pretty sure it's bc mom and I got up and ready to leave early on a saturday #and in the past when we've done this it's bc he had a vet appt #he's really good at recognizing patterns #I mean he ate and everything the behavior was only different once we started getting dressed/ready #but he's also been peeing more lately and had an accident in my bed the other night #which I mean he's 16 and has diabetes and kidney disease #and we're also dealing with some kind of GI issue which I'm afraid could be intestinal lymphoma #(we've tried antibiotics which helped a little but didn't resolve it and lymphoma is a relatively common cancer in elderly cats) #we're not gonna do a biopsy- it wouldn't change anything and we're not putting him through that #ugh this part of having pets sucks #I feel like I have to say that he's happy and otherwise healthy (the vet was really pleased with his bloodwork last visit) #he's eating and taking care of the other cats (he's such a dad cat) #he's just the cat equivalent of your granddad who's 80something and on dialysis or w/e

In theory, 2021 was a long time ago. Not like 10 years ago, bug not 1 month ago either. After all, almost April of 2021 and almost April of 2023 have quite a long time in between them irl wise ("I was on this trip almost 2 years ago. Time flies!"). Summer is gonna hit in 3 months from now. In theory, almost 2 years should be enough.

In reality, turns out that one year and nine months is barely anything when you lose your loved ones. I still think about my parents, I dream of them almost every night. It's not as bad as it was the first year, but it still bothers and saddens me. The grief of it doesn't affect my everyday life anymore, but I'd say it's still there.

Not everything is supposed to be fun (apparently), but this feeling and these thoughts are especially not fun. I kind of wish it was avoidable (without bottling it up).

#tw death #personal #me after my parents' death #I'm not afraid of death until the death hits and then i suffer for a year #and then i wish the death would never hit again #unfortunately it will as it's a part of life #i do wish i could live forever #probably my cat too #I'd find a way to make it work #in my dreams my dad is always alive and it's the worst part #none of this is supposed to be happening #it doesn't bring any relief only anxiety #there is so much to unpack here #i think some therapy wouldn't hurt #i wasn't close with my mom which makes thoughts of her last days even worse #anyway it's almost 12pm don't @ me #i feel weird before sleep (also anxious)

Haven't read a lot about strangers from hell but from scrolling through the beyond evil and tdj tags i read something about a ship and i have yet to figure out who the hell people are shipping in this show. Finding the answer to this question really keeps me glued to the screen

#I'm only in ep 4 so there's a lot of time left to figure it out #but so far everyone seems.. questionable hmm #anyway #good show #should have watched it earlier but was too afraid because of all the dead cats and teeth content #but it's fine #definitely entertaining #also really hope to get some answers soon ahahah (maybe i misunderstood something. i try to avoid spoilers #so the only things i read were related to the other shows so idk #shut up amy
