Kurogiri and Yabureme are Shigaraki’s caretakers with their own separate purposes but at the same time they end up like siblings that Shigaraki needs to mediate. “tomura he’s TOUCHING ME” “Kurogiri, there’s literally two inches between you and his finger. stop it.” “no he was just touching me and stopped when you were looking he’s doing this on purpose”

......this was supposed to be a funny comic but instead it’s just sad

#boku no hero academia fanart #shouta aizawa #kurogiri #tomura shigaraki #there won't be much room in the actual Yabureme AU comic for laughs... like... at all #so I'll try to do little lighthearted side comics alongside it I guess LMAO #it's weird drawing fear adjacent on Aizawa's face but as a Nomu he would absolutelyreact with something like fear #if he thinks he's in trouble or has disobeyed an order #he's an intelligent Nomu of course he just defaults to non-conversational unless he's addressed #so it's easy for the LoV to just kind of brush him off rather than respect him like they do Kurogiri #if he's hovering and being creepy it's simple enough to stand him in the corner and he'll just. wait there until he's told otherwise :( #sarcastically tell him to watch paint dry and realize two days later he's still doing it #don't worry he gets a therapy arc #Yabureme Aizawa AU

I become 300% more of both a lover and a hater when I'm on my period. just a time of the month when I have strong opinions I would say

#i want to kiss a butch for 3 hours. also i'm the only one in the world with correct opinions about everything #me the main character of life #anyway i saw this post complaining about sanitized mass marketable queer art #where the person described themselves based on the interests i guess they thought were most stereotypical and then were like #isn't there something rawer or more real than this #to which i would say there is! but you went to the queer market day #idk it is a frustration of mine too i do get it #but i think some people could stand to just get weirder and like the things they like #idk i buy cute little queer stickers all the time but i regularly stand out as a strange person in both queer and straight communities #get a friend who worked the same shit job who will sell you abstract alien art they made while they were high it's not hard #go to goodwill more. you'll find some raw expressions of humanity. #if you just want your interests to be more genuine to you it's simple #you just have to accept that maybe 2 other people will be able to rec you music or foods you enjoy #being more specific isn't everything it's cracked up to be sometimes #i think the problem here is mainly capitalism

Today is Mayu Monday! ~(‾⌣‾~)

#vocaloid #art #fanart #vocaart #Mayu #Mayu monday #ahhh I love her so much :D #She gives fashionista vibes so I see her in a different outfit #unfortunately the outfit isn’t super dress but hey it’s casual Mayu time because who wants to be fancy on a monday? #I found a simple outfit in Pinterest and went with that dhdjsjsj #also sorry if my art has seemed a little messy! I’ve been drawing directly under sketches like I used to #I kinda like it better than clean line art #it’s something like letting the colors make the shapes and stuff #pretty therapeutic if you ask me #it’s also like you don’t have to abide by the lines so I really like that touch #ALSO I WANTED TO DRAW HER IN A DRESS BUT MU ART WASNT ARTING WHEN I WAS DOING IT HELP DHDHSJSJSJSJ #I guess dressy Mayu will have to wait until next week :( I’m sorry Mayu

I know this is random but reading your blog and seeing your art made me so motivated I made my 1st animation ever (not counting pixel art ones), after not drawing digitally in months and it looks kinda basic and it isn't colored but I made it and I'm really happy with it so I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you for motivating me to make digital art again! I hope you have a wonderful day/night :)

MKJSJWJW HI!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TELLING ME THATS GREAT!!! Animatics need time and patience so the fact you went straight for it is so cool!!!! I bet it looks lovely!

Hope you have the greatest day/night too!

#I'm gonna go in a bit of a ramble in the tags because this got to me #but this legit means the entire world to me #i had ups and downs and good and bad times so its something i even forgot about for a while #but all i ever wanted was to make silly things and have those silly things be of help to someone #that has always been like. my main objective and reason as an artist other than liking to draw #i always hear about the potential i got to helping out in the world and yada yada and i decided i wanted to make it in the unconventional- #and small ways. i wanted to make people happy. entertain them when they are going through something. inspire to see things in a better light #its stupid and simple and something anyone can do but it was a wish of mine #hearing i actually got to do that gives me hope this can actually work out so thank you so much for bothering on telling me this #for a while i forgot the little things mattered too. but you helped me remember it #I've had people do art about ideas i had. i had people laughing with an art i did. i forgot those things meant the world all the same #and i forgot those little things are what had gotten me out of depression in the first place lmao #it helped once so i guess it can help out twice #thank you for telling me and im happy i helped somehow!! i'd love to see it! but either way wooooo!!! you make that art #well this was a cringe ramble lmao #might delete later #(the ramble. the ask im putting in my wall) #but yeah this is nice :] #ask #anon

finally finished all of one character's entire quests/optional dialogue/questions/etc.... 100,000 words... .... aughhh

#Given some of it IS lines of code and stuff but like.. minus all that it's still probably at least 85 - 95k words hhhhhh #AND I have to do this for another 3 characters. Then a few partial quests for 3 others. THEN the other random misc stuff in the game #(like there are public areas in the city like a park and a forest that you can go and do a few things at. and chat with a few random #townsfolk that aren't actually full characters or anything. And there's a community board where you can #browse some of the random job advertisments or silly things that happen to be posted around #and also pick up a few odd jobs of your own to help earn coin to buy gifts for the npcs. etc. etc.) #Originally I was thinking like 'ah I'll make a short little game just to try it out! :3 It'll take maybe a few months!'' #haha........................hee hee........................................hoho #Also evil that it would have been done already if I didn't totally drop itand stop working on it for like 5 years randomly #i could have made 5 years of steady slow progress gradually. instead of like 'one initial idea dump + about a month of art and writing' #...... 5 year break..... 'sudden mad dash to try to get probably 400.000 words written in a year or less' lol #I just really want to be done and have something out there already so it can lead to doing other things in my world..!!!!!! T o T #Like this can be an introduction and then maybe from that I can make other games. or short story anthologies. or other such things #But there needs to be some initially not very complex easy to interact with starting point first I guess... if that makes sense #That's part of why I stopped posting worldbuilding lore dump stuff as often because its' like.. massive walls of novella length #text are much more inacessible to engage with than like.. ooh a game! and there's characters! so its more approachable! and theres #visuals! oo! and the text is broken up in small bits line by line with other things in betwen! oo! etc. etc. lol #Not that THIS is even very accessible. I think dialogue heavy interactive fiction/visual novel type stuff is pretty niche and considered #boring or tedious compared to something with more ''gamplay'' like where you can actually move around in a world #and shoot things or whatever lol. But its an inbetween point. something SLIGHTLY #more accesible for now. Since i just dont have the budget or means or ability to make some skyrim type thing obviously LOL #Though maybe if theres any interest in the visual novel that could lead to making other things too. or at least I hope. I have a VERY cool #idea for a more ''gamey'' type of game that is a super fun concept and etc. but I would need to hire at least 2 people to make it.. ough.. #I could do all the writing and probably half of the art. But I think I'd inevitably need a 3d artist and someone who can Code For Real hbjh #the system for ren'py (the thing I'm making a visual novel in) is not that complicated if you stick to just simple dialogue and stuff. #Making a whole moderately sized 3d game with minigames in it and a bunch of quest features and etc. would be out of my simplistic scope #''just learn it yourself!!' ... i barely manage to eat and sleep reliably every day lol... i do not function well enough to spend months #learning that many new skills. I already have a lot of of things I'm good at (not in a braggy way but just factually like.. i already have #a wide variety of different things under my belt).. at some point I have to just be happy with what i CAN already do and focus on that #and admit I need to get outside help sometimes ghjbh... NO more new skills/hobbies!!! ... ANYWAY

any hopes for kiwami 3? like things u wanna see added or changed stuff like that

if they dont keep kiryu's goofy walk stance and the hoof-like walk sounds i dont wanna play it

#snap chats #no one understands how much i love that from y3 and y4 its genuinely one of my favorite things about the game #oh but i guess i have to give an actual answer now. HMPH. #id scream if they revived kanda calling mine limp wristed. homophobia in 4k #OK BUT TO BE SERIOUS uhhhh i dont know. im a real simple guy i think #my only like. If This Isnt There Im Leaving deal is mine's palette and im so serious #rgg's scaring me with all the black-hair/purple-suit mine stuff as of late and i cant stress how hard ill vomit if thats in the final #HYPOTHETICAL final anyways. yk3 isnt coming out for. IDK A WHILE #i wanna say i hope they highlight daigo and mine's relationship more but i dont know how theyd do that #i really like how mine's handled in y3 as is so i dont think i want scenes injected like what they did with yk1 and nishiki #someone said a Mine Saga after the game and... hm ... sounds too unrealistic for me to hope for it #like im REALLY trying to think how they could possibly reference the rggo stories in y3 since those are EXCELLENT but #i think . MAYBE. you could reference the story where richardson calls mine as he's driving to the hospital #the only thing you'd have to exclude though is mine stopping by the bar- like JUST keep the phone conversation maybe #cause in that scene that subordinate does question mine if he can really kill daigo and i think thatd be neat. in my opinion. #yeah i dont know. in regards to rggo its hard to think of what i want without intervening things i already like about y3 #its a real head scratcher ... #a really good epilogue addition would be adapting that RGGO bit where daigo ruminates on mine. that's a fair ending for him i think #it also fulfills the need to see how daigo saw mine even if its just a little #and to non-rggo readers it could start to answer 'how does daigo feel about everything that happened' #im still so curious as to if daigo was briefed on EVERYTHING that happened but .... anyways.... #sorry all my hopes for y3 are just mine/minedai centric fLVKELKA BUT LIKE. i really am content with everything else with y3 surprisingly #idk. i want kiryu fucking up that curry in high definition tho. thats important to me #THEY HAVE TO KEEP THE QTES DURING THE RICHARDSON FIGHT ILL BE PISSED #i need the fight to be AS CAMPY and unnecessary as it was in the og. INCLUDING richardson's voice acting i need it wack as hell #is it weird i actually appreciate the Diet Building Loredumping being like. in replayable-cutscene form #i thought id prefer just One Long cutscene but im glad theres the option to skip those segments #BUT being able to get a refresher in case you missed something somehow #im running out of tags jesus christ i shouldve put this in the main text but vjALjlagj those are all my thoughts for now bYE

Lucha of the Night Forest

YA fantasy about a girl struggling to survive with her sister in a land overtaken by a forgetting drug, who makes a deal with a forest god to escape

spooky fungi magic, forest, sisters, lesbian MC

#Lucha of the Night Forest #aroaessidhe 2023 reads #ooouagh i like this a lot #def enjoyed the spooky fungi horror adjacent bits the most - which tbh is like 1/3 maybe 1/2 #would love if it was spread more through the whole thing #though i guess I do understand that it represents a specific thing in the narrative and it wouldnt make sense to have that much more of it #I do think that the sort of…antagonist motivations and plot related to all that was a little simple #and I can imagine an alternate version that’s longer (series?) and much more complex which would be even better #which would result in her spending more time with the spooky fungi power stuff #but like also I guess there’s positives to a simpler standalone also. sometimes making something longer and more complex just makes it muddi #muddied and bad lol #she could have been a bit more evil is all im saying #i kinda wanted to know more about the wilder worldbuilding also - #tho understand that wtf would a poor girl who’s never left her town or the forest know about the wider world #the romance is a little instalovey i guess but also imo it’s only showing the beginning of a posisble relationship anyway? #anyway i gave this 5 stars. its my vibe. i wanna do fanart #yes girl kill him with mushrooms #sapphic books #lesbian books

thinking fandom thoughts

i'm not into shaming people for not interacting with the things that don't interest them in fun and free fandom spaces, and i think fandom interests can sometimes correlate to how much time the actual show gave to certain parts of itself, especially in cases where there's more male characters to female characters for example.

but sometimes it does feel like, even though bee five IS hailed for its Strong Female Characters, female bee five characters don't get nearly the same amount of attention as male characters and it makes things feel a tad lonely.

like i said i'm not going to get mad at someone for focusing on a male character in everything they talk about or say because... fandom is just for fun, if you're only here because you wanna fuck a centauri that's sooooooo sexy and valid of you. you can always give female characters another glance to see if you overlooked something you would like to do more with but it's not your Feminist Duty to write fics about something you don't care about.

the solution in my head is for me to just talk about the girlies and make more about them if it bothers me so much, and try to find more of those conversations and things going on. i'm just complaining about it instead of doing that because i don't have the time to make my blog into the little lesbian paradise of my dreams :|

and i think in particular why this sticks out is because as someone who's been in the fandom a while now and who has looked over a lot of past fandom eras i WASN'T in, there always seemed to be some... core sapphics in fandom doing god's work focusing on female characters in the face of the fandom usually being The Londo Show and so on. and in all honesty maybe i'm just not looking hard enough because i'm not as active these days (or maybe i just have too many people blocked now that i think about it) but i miss being able to contribute enough to help keep the female character focus afloat even in its quieter periods... especially since i am ALSO not immune to Hot Narn Guy taking the little bit of attention i DO have aj;lksdkfj.

#og #just been thinking about this for some time and kinda wondering if #we rly are in one of those dips rn or if i'm just not actually using my eyes #that's not to say NOTHING is going on also it's just... comparative to other little eras #there is also something to be said about the correlation piece #how this show DOES have strong female characters #but stops passing the bechdel test almost entirely after talia leaves #and how those subtle issues translate to fandom interest #or disinterest #and of course how fandom does interact with the characters it does interact with #but it's all cause-effect and nothing is that simple fandom is not so monolithic etc #it is not that serious i am not trying to initiate a Call To Write Lesbian Fanfic (but i also would not complain if that happened) #just some observations #that i've been thinking about especially since the tag HAS become so much more active than it was even a few years ago #it's just weird to me that the female character focus seems to have dropped off so much since... #shouldnt we have more now i guess?

A few hours shouldn't be enough to fuck up the progress of a week and also have weeks long consequences it's not fair

#I'm trying to stop doing something that has an actual dsm5 diagnosis so that's fun #BUT I know I can do it with just some effort and self control #because I'm not going to therapy for this let's not kid ourselves #and I'm sure in my case it's not that bad anyway #but it takes so little to mess up all the progress I've made and no one has to talk about this ever because #a good portion of stopping is Not thinking about it #and guess what happened #I'm just tired. I've wanted to stop for literal years. I've never wanted to even start actually! but I think I've gotten to the point where #I'm actually really trying to make that change. if anything because the behaviours I should change are so many and so #deeply ingrained that this one. while fucking impossible. feels like the easiest #and it's such a stupid thing too it's just habit. I'm being bested by simple every day habit #and by the fact that I can't make big changes to my environment #personal

[turianmailman]

Hey I just wanted to tell you that I’m really uncomfortable with the fact you draw nsfw of duck and fakir, I really wish you wouldn’t cause even though their aged up in the drawings it’s still very icky to think to draw nsfw of those characters when they are minors in the show :( I don’t want to unfollow because your honestly such a huge inspiration to me as an artist so I just hope you’ll take this into consideration

Some things to consider:

It is perfectly understandable, and 100% okay, to be uncomfortable, with ANYTHING I create. How you feel about my art is valid and you should only ever follow me if you are comfortable interacting with what you see on this blog.

To follow up on number 1, I have no problems with you unfollowing my account for ANY reason. This is the internet. You set your boundaries. I would never want you to compromise your personal safety over my blog.

NSFW art will ONLY ever be shared on this account as a link to a locked twitter account that is NOT safe for minors. If the age of an account is not shared, I will assume you are a minor and block you. Any images shared are cropped and safe to share on this blog. I will also always tag these pieces with NSFT (Not Safe For Tumblr) so you can block the tags on these posts and avoid them.

It is also perfectly understandable, and 100% okay, for me to post whatever content I like about whatever I am interested in, regardless of how that makes YOU feel. Number 1 and number 4 CAN and DO coexist and both have validity.

Yes, they are minors in the show. No, the pieces I make are NOT of them during the canon timeline of the show.

"Aging up" a character happens in real life - its called "aging", alternatively, "time passing" which happens, to all of us, regardless of our current age. This is also a show about talking animals. We don't HAVE to obey reality and law, but I choose to in this context.

That out of the way, some personal thoughts:

The way I engage with these two characters, in particular, is very, very personal. I often inject what I did not get (a loving relationship with someone I can trust, the freedom to explore the relationship both romantically and sexually and be safe, fundamental milestones and experiences for first-time relationships) into their dynamics because that's how art works. We put ourselves into everything, stories do not happen in a vacuum. As a queer writer with a difficult-to-admit, traumatic experience with sexuality and romance, I think it would be incredibly cruel to ban both myself, and artists like me, from exploring what was denied us through characters that make us feel safe. Not to mention, for me at least, the media we consume grows WITH us. I was a minor when the show aired, and when I consumed it. They were minors with me. Now, they are consenting adults with me.

I do not share this with you, or anyone else, for pity reasons, but for context. I take character exploration very seriously, and try to help characters grow while honoring where they came from in canon. But even if I didn't, that would not stop me, nor anyone else, from having access to a basic right as an artist.

Tl;Dr -- I want you to feel safe, and I will install measures to make things that make you feel unsafe as optional as possible, above hiding what makes me feel safe. If that results in an unfollow, please honor both our boundaries.

EDIT: I will not answer any more asks expanding on this topic, as I think it’s redundant and I’m not interested in discussing the topic further - I appreciate your thoughts and concerns regardless 🙏🏻

#i hope you have a calm and peaceful day wherever you are #this will also be the ONLY ask I answer that is in this genre of question #as i think this wraps up my feelings on the matter pretty nicely #ive been on the other end of discourse like this but I've come to change my views on how we express ourselves in fandom #if something upsets you; you only have to leave #its that simple #so PLEASE please take care of yourself #people talkin #anon #not art #this is further incentive to get my ass on setting up that patreon LOLL #also umm.....i hate to break it to you..but if you enjoyed my pregnancy comic reveal with them....well..... #perhaps.....read a ..... sex ed book idk LOL #EDIT: I MEANT SAFE NOT UNSAFE GOOD LORD #also an added measure i have for this while not iron clad #is posting late at night in my timezone and avoiding timezone reblogs #so theres that i guess lOL #on the other hand im ..... also really proud that they come across as adults w/o me having to state it cause IM ASSUMING of how theyre draw #its also a little awkward to answer this on the heels of working on a comic about the intersection between this show #my personal experience and the trauma mentioned WOOPS #life is. weird.

[lolchat]

It's crazy seeing you slowly become more and more sad and depressed sounding during the span I've followed you? You're one of the most friendliest and chill people I've ever followed on here. I hope you're able to get out of this depressed state soon dude good luck

huh! thank you:-) i didn't realize that was a thing people noticed. i didn't notice until now but i guess i was more active and energetic sounding? maybe? before. i'm happy you think i'm friendly that's all i can ever hope to be

#thank you again. i will be fine i think^_^ #i've gotten a lot of anons recently about this (well. four but thats a lot to me) #and i guess i didnt realize how many people like my presence on their dash. or something like that i'm not entirely sure #alex answers #anon #the thought of someone taking the time out of their day to write a simple message like this. well it makes me glad im alive to read it #to experience someone caring for me like this. even in such a simple way. it makes laying in bed a little more bearable

Oh my god I might get to take my friend on a date EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK

#that’s a good eek lol #I won’t even really have romantic feelings towards her lol #and as far as I’m aware she feels the same way towards me #but we joke about having sex/going on a date a lot #and she was like ‘I’m free Sunday’ and I went 👀 #she also posts a lot on Snapchat complaining about people just wanting her for sex/not treating her well #& also posts TikTok’s of guys giving their girlfriends princess treatment and captioning it with stuff like ‘need someone like this fr’ #so like— I dunno- it’s a little silly- but I kinda wanna do that for her I dunno #I’m kinda already planning some things out 👉👈 #and like I said!!! I don’t even have romantic feelings for her (have literally talked to her about a crush I have lol) #but I dunno- I guess I just wanna show her that it’s not impossible to find someone who *will* do those things and *will* treat her the way- #-she wants & deserves to be treated #I think mostly I want her to know she doesn’t need to lower her standards- *shouldn’t* lower her standards #just because a few shitty people refuse to meet them #(the reason I’m so deadset on doing this might have something to do with me lowering my already very low standards for people who absolutel- #-absolutely did not deserve it in the past) #like honestly some of the stuff was as simple as getting her flowers/opening the car door for her #easy shit. (obv I’m doing more than that lol) #but you get the idea

Random thought but do we think Jono Starsmore was on mediaction (Antidepressants/Whatev) before his mutation kicked in?? And that it maybe factored a bit into his whole Very Very Unhappy About My Mutation situation?

#Im a simple girl. I take my meds and decide the next character I lay my eyes upon also takes meds #But also I have so many thoughts about mutant healthcare and mental health #Because Im guessing theres quite a few amount of mutants who can't take meds #So ig they have an equivalent? Like a telepath or something gets into their heads and moves shit around a little #Maybe Stacy X has a power upgrade and his now a walking Haldol pill /j #No but yeah I have questions and HCs #Also speaking of HCs I have so many thoughts about Chamber. Its not even funny #I evolved from 'Chamber Hater' into 'Chamber Bully' Into 'Chamber is like my annoying little brother that I bully but want to see succeed' #I have so many thoughts and HCs and potential story ideas for him. Sigh. #Jono Starsmore
