im curious! what gave you the idea to make convex squirrels?/genq I've (personally) never thought of it before, so :0c

OH i did it when season 9 just started and scar was an elf matador in his big oak tree and cub lived in its basement!

i just reeeeaaally don't like elves, so i was trying to figure out a design for scar that i would enjoy drawing in the future, andd yknow, he lived in a tree, and who else lives in trees? squirrels! and then cub moved in, and scar let him try on the custom ears he had, and we joked with friends about it aaaand so i drew cub as a squirrel too! so it's less of a convex thing and more of a uhhhh season lore i dont know what to call it. convex are still vex in my mind.

for the above reason of drawing elves as squirrels there's also a couple drawings of squirrel gem ( because she was also an elf in s9 ye ) , i think it suited her well!

Students:

Soda Popinski (The Abby Bominable type but more cheerful)

Son of the Chupacabra

A famous luchador who is also Macho's rival and the two often compete on who the strongest man is. He's quite proud and is quite the ladies man, much to Don's dismay.

Mad Clown (The Gooliope Jellington type but a little grumpy)

Son of the Killer Clown

Don't de fooled by his appearance, Mad Clown is all bite and no bark if you make him angry. He also has a sense of humor but he puts it with a grain of salt. Clown doesn't mind pranking others, especially Aran (who would be the target for Mika's paybacks).

Narcis Prince (The Clawdia Wolf type but more vain)

Son of Jack the Ripper

Being the son of a famous serial killer (and the only mortal), Narcis is both vain and crazy, always envious towards beautiful girls but maintain a gentleman status, the only friends he has are Mika, Heike, Aran and Joe.

Rick and Nick Bruiser (The Purrsephone and Meowlody type)

Sons of Orcs

The Bruiser Bros may look the same but have totally different personalities: Rick is loud, cheerful and rowdy while Nick is calm, quiet and smart, totally identical but different in many ways.

[screaming-skvll]

Zip cleared the heavy dust off the lid of another sealed crate, pried it open, reached in, and hefted a robust shotgun in spotless condition. "This thing isn't as... colorful as I remember."

Javier looked up, pulling his arms out of the crate he was rummaging through. "Matador-type, right?" Snatching up his inventory datapad, he recorded the contents of Zip's crate with a few terse taps. "Probably that batch came from the factory unshaded, or with some temporary production default shader. Final colors meant to be applied later. We d—uh, I mean Häkke does that all the time with batches that aren't going straight to market."

Zip looked down into the crate, eyeing the multiple twins of the shotgun in his hands. "So how'd it get here?"

"How'd any of this get here?" Javier shrugged at the crystal-laced cave walls around them. Low light from their compact lanterns glinted suggestively along the geometrically precise crystalline outgrowths protruding here and there from the ruddy rock of the Cosmodrome steppe. "All stashed a long time ago, seems like. Smugglers' cache, probably. Obviously they never got back to it."

"Smugglers? How'd they steal all this from the foundries?"

Javier sort of smiled laughingly without laughing, showing his teeth. "Judging from how long this stuff has been here, and the age of all these models, I'd say whoever squirreled it all away did so more than ten years ago. You remember what things were like back then?"

"I was just a kid ten years ago." The shotgun suddenly felt large and cumbersome in Zip's hands.

"Well," Javier continued, rocking back on his haunches, "they'd barely started calling it 'the City Age' at that point. The City was pretty well built up, of course, but after Six Fronts and Twilight Gap, people had only just gotten used to the idea the Last Safe City might actually reliably be, y'know, safe. As for the foundries, they were mostly just getting to the point of acting like big businesses rather than crafting operations. Their factories were still just built-out workshops. That's when guns like these were made." He thoughtfully ran a hand down the long stock of a classic-looking sniper rifle propped on the cave wall beside him.

"What does that have to do with smugglers?"

"Heh. Nothing, not exactly. I'm just painting you a picture, so you understand what the landscape was like."

Zip blinked bemusedly. "Landscape?"

"Yeah," Javier nodded. "See, back then, the foundries operated a bit more loosely. Less formal oversight, let alone regulation, of anyone helping arm Guardians and the City militia."

Javier paused and looked to Zip, as if waiting for him to say something showing he caught the drift. "Are you saying," Zip began haltingly, "the foundries used to work with smugglers?"

Another smile, this time concealing his teeth. "I'm saying a lot of things about the foundries' business used to be... hinky. Maybe a lot hinkier than you'd think."

Punch Out AU: Archie Comics AU

I love the Archie Comics and here's an AU based on it. What if Punch Out characters were living together in the little town known as Riverdale?

Little Mac: After moving to Riverdale with his adoptive family, Macintosh Sanders or Mac for short, made new friends with Archie and the Gang, he's also friends with others who also move to Riverdale as well, including Mika, Birdie and so many others. Mac is both smart and athletic, even though people would often made fun of his short structure but he has a good heart and a great heart.

Star Mika: Mac's childhood friend from middle school who just moved to Riverdale after her dad got a new job as police commissioner. Mikaela Florence Tiongson is very sweet, kind and always lend a helping hand, a straight A student and student council president. She's a multipotentialite, meaning that she on many different interests and hobbies and she's also an otaku by heart who has a love for cosplaying. Mika also has a crush on Joe, the French teacher but she somehow got into a love triangle with Aran and Don, making her somewhat the alternate opposite to Archie. And if anyone can rival Betty's baking, then Mika is that person.

Doc Louis: Louis James Sanders, better known as heavy weight boxer Doc Louis, is Mac's adoptive father and is good friends with Coach Clayton. He owns a small gym in Riverdale and has a love for chocolate.

Glass Joe: Joseph Le Verre or Joe for short, is a French teacher in Riverdale High who teaches, well French of course. He's often called 'Glass Joe' due to getting his jaw broken every time he tries to do sports, Joe also knows that Mika has a crush on him so he started developing feelings towards her even though their ages are different.

Von Kaiser: Viktor Von Kaiser is a strict boxing instructor who works in Doc's gym and he teaches boxing to young children. Even though he's strict, he's a bit of a scaredy cat and often say 'Mami (Mommy)' whenever he's scared or often gets startled.

Disco Kid: Dean Martin Sanders is Mac's adoptive brother who is a year older than him although he goes to the same school as he's brother. Dean is a lover for disco dancing and has a bit of an 80's aesthetic which he often has given the nickname of 'Disco Kid' due to his talent for dancing. He's also Chuck's wingman when it comes to finding ideas for Chuck's dates with Nancy.

King Hippo: Maui Māhoe is a mute Hawaiian who comes from the mysterious place known as Hippo Island and is the heir to the throne but he decided to have a normal life with his adoptive Hawaiian family in Riverdale. He was given the nickname 'King Hippo', due to him grunting and eating a lot, sort of Jughead's opposite counterpart. Piston Hondo: From Tokyo, Japan, Takeo Hondo is the son of the CEO of a car company and if anyone can rival Betty's knowledge of auto mechanics, then it's Hondo who's the one. He was given the nickname 'Piston Hondo', due to his skills in auto mechanics and he's also the guy who will fix any car of his friends.

Bear Hugger: A great jolly man who's similar to Santa Claus, Bryan Harris is a Canadian man who works at Riverdale's Lumber Mill. He's a nature lover, a down to earth person and has a pet bear and squirrel named Mr. Bear and Chipper, that's why people would often call him 'Bear Hugger'. He loves the maple bacon burgers at Pop Tate's and often tell stories about the days in the forest to the 'youths' as he would describe teenagers.

Great Tiger: Ranjeet Patel is Raj's cousin from India. He's got magic powers that no one can understand and often helps Raj with his films since he supports his dreams. He's given the nickname 'Great Tiger', due to his love for tigers and has magic abilities.

Don Flamenco: Raphael Santa Cruz, better known by his nickname as 'Don Flamenco', is a Spanish exchange student who comes from a long line of matadors or bull fighters. He's also a bit of a ladies man, a real charmer that can rival both Archie and Reggie for girls' heart. Even though he already has a girlfriend name Carmen, he's in a love triangle with Mika and Aran, making him the alternate counterpart to Veronica.

Aran Ryan: Aran Conor Ryan is an Irish bad boy and is Reggie's rival when it comes to pulling pranks. If Reggie is worse, then Aran is 10x way worse than him. He often brings bad luck whenever someone tries to tick him off or make fun of his friends, then you better watch out for this feral menace. He's the somewhat Betty counterpart in the love triangle between Don and Mika.

Soda Popinski: The Russian employee at Pop Tate's, Ivan Grigoriy Paccewich, better known as 'Soda Popinski', loves soda and would often try to cheer any customer down with his signature flavors of soda. Pop and Soda would often be named 'The Fizzy Duo', due to their love for finding ways to cheer up customers with just a soda in one hand and an ice cream scoop in the other. Bald Bull: Burak Deniz Agha is a security guard at Riverdale High and would often catch anyone trying to sneak off of campus. He was given the nickname of 'Bald Bull', due to his lack of hair and anger issues, he's also camera shy.

Super Macho Man: The very rich and 'very strong' Steven Marley or better known as 'Super Macho Man', the face of Curly Cola and swimming coach at Riverdale High. Steve loves posing for the picture and guess who's Steve's biggest? None other than Reggie Mantle, who sees 'Mr. Marley or Coach Marley' as his idol.

Mr. Sandman: The serious Geography teacher, Mr. Samuel Elliot Sands or the students prefer to call him 'Mr. Sandman', since he always check the time, an early bird and night owl at the same time. He's a very close family friend to the Claytons and the Sanders and whenever he feels overtired, he would often sleep in his desk when the class is doing an activity.

(Bonus: Super Punch Out)

Birdie: Billy Byrd is Mika and Mac's childhood friend from middle school and the jokester of the trio. He's been called 'Birdie', due to being speedy and fast, the star of track and field.

Gabby Jay: The school librarian Gabriel François Lavigne or Gabby Jay for short, he's Joe's somewhat grandfather figure since he would often gives him advice and works part time as a waiter in Pop Tate's. He's also currently dating Doc, despite Mac's and Birdie's dismay but Mika thought it was romantic.

Bob Charlie: The class comedian Baron Ajani Whyte or Bob Charlie for short, if anyone who can rival Disco Kid's moves then it's got to be Bob Charlie. Bob is a very mellow and calm guy, your typical 'hippie' but he can get ticked off whenever someone plays really loud music.

Dragon Chan: Haitao Chen, better known by his friends as 'Dragon Chan', is the club president of the Martial Arts/Kung Fu Club and Hondo's best friend. Dragon is always quick to think however he would often gets reminded by his friends or his 祖父 (grandfather), Hoy Quarlow.

Piston Hurricane: Alejandro Bembe González, better known as 'Piston Hurricane', is Birdie's rival in track and field and bookworm who would often hang out with Moose and Dilton.

Masked Muscle: Riverdale High's very own luchador, Santiago Ángel Hernández or by his stage name 'Masked Muscle'. Santiago is a bit of a prankster, always trying to one up with Aran and Reggie but he often flirts with girls, much to the dismay of Don, Archie and Reggie.

Heike Kagero: Riverdale High's fashion king and kabuki dancer, Heike Kagero. He loves hanging out with some of the girls in school and because he became so popular due to his long hair, often getting mistaken for a girl himself.

Mad Clown: Leonardo Esposito, better known as 'Mad Clown', runs the Riverdale Children's Hospital as both a doctor and an entertainer. He used to be an opera singer until he retired from the stage.

Narcis Prince: Nathaniel Howard Prince, is your typical narcistic pretty boy who would often rival with Veronica and Cheryl due to their families' wealth. He was given the nickname of 'Narcis Prince', due to his narcistic personality and mannerism. The only friends who support him are Mika, Aran (sometimes), Birdie and Heike.

Hoy Quarlow: Hoy Xu Quarlow is Dragon's grandfather and teaches kung fu lessons at home. Even though he may look old but he's stronger than you think.

Rick and Nick Bruiser: Richard Phillips and Nicholas Phillips, better known as the 'Bruiser Brothers', are your typical jocks/delinquents however they both have different personalities: Rick is rowdy, cheerful and lazy while Nick is smart, serious and quiet. Both would often support each other and often people would mistaken them for identical twins.

(Please feel free to add your own OCs! Enjoy this wacky AU of mine!)

I Came All the Way to Peru to Battle Midwestern Racists: The characters you meet as an American girl working at an English Pub in Peru

A lot has happened since my last post, so I’ll briefly give you the life updates and then get into my pub profiling.

1) My computer is fixed, and it was fixed FO FREE. Apparently some dust or something had gotten in it.  

2) I have a new apartment! On Thursday, I moved into a cute little apartment in Barranco, the hipster district where I work. I’m living with a 28-year-old Peruvian girl and a nice, quiet, engineer dude that looks to be about the same age. My flat is on the third floor of a tall white building—actually, it IS the third floor. We have a little patio, an open kitchen/living room, and a little cat! Milagros, my roommate, is short and cute, with a couple flower and feather tattoos and long, straight black hair. She speaks some English and wants to practice even more, and she is by far one of the easiest people for me to communicate with in Peru. I got to drink with her friends last night and we had so much fun! Most of her friends are from university, seem to be some sort of engineers, and travel a lot for their jobs (so does she).

3) I finally started teaching online English! It’s actually so fun. The kids are adorable, the parents revere teachers, and it takes 0 planning time. To be fair, I did have to invest in a Mr. Potato Head and a creepy stuffed squirrel I found in a little tienda on the street. I actually really did miss teaching and am happy to get to interact with kids again, even at obscenely early hours of the morning and only via webcam. Fortunately, I am making American money while living in Peru, which is pretty much the best loophole I’ve come across.

4) I also worked every night at the pub last week. “Working” at Wick’s (honestly, I mostly just drink) has been a highlight of my time here, and has also introduced me to different Lima visitors every night. Though a much more… relaxed… service culture means less tips (boo), it also means much more time to chat with patrons. Hearing everyone’s stories not only helps me to practice my Spanish (sometimes—about 50% of the patrons speak English, and that number climbs to about 80% when you’re looking at those who choose to sit at the bar and shoot the shit with me). Here are some of the all-stars: - Retired British Air Force Pilot: RBAFP is definitely my favorite customer, and probably one of my favorite people. Unclear how I keep collecting elderly retired pilot friends (just kidding, it’s because my brother is in the Air Force and they all want to know him/be him). RBAFP comes in several times a week and can talk to just about anybody. He’s been divorced a couple times, is currently married to a hot Peruvian lady, and used to fly for Delta airlines. He loves to take the piss out of the other regulars—note my impeccable use of British slang—and I like to listen. Often times he’s accompanied by other pilots or air controllers, or a couple of times he’s come in with some young Columbian and Peruvian businessmen (that he may or may not have been trying to set me up with).

- Revolving Door of Finance Guys: I don’t know what it is, but a lot of investment bankers, finance, and IT guys show up at this pub. They sit at the bar, order a whiskey, and talk about what they do. RDFGs usually don suits and short-cropped hair. Quick to drop you their card, I like that I sometimes get to feel like a mover-and-shaker talking to these guys, like I could be making a connection I’ll need down the line. I talked with a guy who worked at some IT firm in DC who wanted to help me out with my grant proposal I’ve started writing, which was encouraging and exciting.

- Racist Midwesterner: Ugh. RM came in one of my first nights of work and I thought he was CUTE. He ended up leaving because we didn’t have the beer he wanted (cask ales kind of suck anyway) or a food special for the night. He came back a few nights later and proceeded to get pretty drunk at the bar. I was actually super excited: we had witty repertoire, he was planning on staying in Peru for the foreseeable future, he had really good teeth—let’s not judge my standards here. At some point in any conversation one has here, someone will ask your “coming to Peru” story. He came for Ayahuasca. Incidentally, he also is staying (eight months past his visa expiration) for Ayahuasca. Okay, probably another red flag. As I’m asking him about his experience, he tells me it’s not a drug, it’s not like any other drugs. I ask him what drugs he’s done to compare it to. At this point, I guess I’m showing my basic level of critical thinking and he does not like the challenge. You can see him pulling out his LIBERAL card and about to throw it down.

Somehow, he transitions to to gun control—maybe a conservative litmus test? He tells me if some “sketchy looking dudes” are coming at your jewelry store, you definitely have a right to shoot and kill them. Again, my bleeding heart can’t help but ask a thought-provoking question: What makes someone sketchy? [God, I’m so clearly pushing my beliefs so hard right now]. He replies, “When they are running around your store.. and they’re black.” [I don’t know what to type here, so please just imagine a picture of my face that I’m not tech-savvy enough to include on here]. Not just a red flag, a giant red matador flag in front of a bright red sunset sky. At this point, I begin to wonder if Socrates/Ben Franklin style of gentle prodding is not the answer. After gauging the stunned look on my face, he says, “Oh, I can tell you’re a humanitarian [read: not a racist]. Well I’m just being honest. Look at the statistics.” I can go on and on about how ridiculous he got and how much I really tried to keep my composure and listen before responding, but eventually he was just shouting at me. High(low)lights include, but are not limited to: “I’m not going to apologize for the white man,” “I already know what I believe, I’m set in it, I’m not going to change my mind,” “I would probably be in the same position if I was born in a black, poor, community but that’s not my problem.” My manager stepped in and told him he was a total twat and eventually he got uncomfortable and left, reportedly asking my manager afterwards if he had “been okay in there.” Jimmy replied, “Abso-fucking-lutely not. You were not okay. You were a racist and you were shouting at her for not being a racist.”

- Remotely Working Tech Guys: Graphic designers, software engineers, anyone who can do their job on the computer. In fact, RM was one of these remote software type guys. Generally speaking, thought, I like the other ones better. They come in almost nightly, ordering cask ales and being cheeky with the staff. RWTG can be schmoozers or a bit shy, but usually have an affinity for uppers and talking about whatever they’re currently working on. Getting paid American money here is really the way to go, so it makes sense that people who can work from their laptop choose to do so in Lima.

- Bill: Bill does a lot of cocaine and shouts and gets physically weird with dudes at the bar. A LOT of cocaine. And yells VERY loud. He might be American? He is definitely loud. I’ve heard he’s actually an okay guy, but I’ve also been generally successful at darting my eyes, slinking around, and generally avoiding engaging with him at all. Bill does not get an acronym. I think he also works in mining? Yeah, Peru has mines. Also cocaine. Do less cocaine, Bill.

- Fun Groups of Peruvian Youths: I like Peruvians. They drink, but they drink slowly and they love playing games (I’ve almost had to break up fights over Jenga). Generally, they are super friendly and low-key, and are patient with me if I have some Spanish translation issues. These groups are especially fun on football nights.

- Cool Barranco Lesbian Hipsters: Barranco is a v. hip neighborhood. While retaining some of the essential elements of Lima culture, Barranco’s streets have evolved into a collection cool art museums, quaint cafes, a microtheater, and who knows what else—like most good things, the treasures of Barranco are escondidos. We have several ladies who come into the bar pretty regularly and often play live music or talk about playing live music. They also tend to have trendy jobs as graphic designers/PR folks, as well as bit of their own drama that I’m definitely a little bit here for.

- Kitchen Staff: Okay, so they aren’t bar patrons but I love the boys who work in the kitchen. There are three of them from ages 20-25, they are Peruvian, adorable, and (2/3) speak impeccable English. Neither of them have had any formal schooling in English, which makes me feel like shit that they have been able to pick it up so quickly and I still spend 10-20% of my time with a dumbfounded look on my face when someone comes at me with Spanish. They teach me cool Spanish words to make me sound Peruvian (which I always confirm with Milagros to make sure I’m not saying dirty stuff), I get buzzed and flirt mercilessly with them in exchange.

Happies: Pretty much everything right now! I love my new room, it’s super close to the gorgeous beach and the swank downtown area (Miraflores). I’m finally getting used to waking up early to teach (prime hours are from 6am-9am) and have been trying to make what remains of my morning productive, instead of opting for a drooling, facedown Netflix nap. I’m exercising quite a bit (I’m too cheap to use Uber regularly and too lazy to figure out most busses, which means most places I go… I’m running! [if you didn’t get the Forrest Gump reference, gtfo]. I feel like my Spanish has improved a lot, especially when talking to someone I am familiar with. Feras is coming to visit me at the end of November and we’ve almost got our whole Cuzco/Machu Picchu trip booked! The Lima portion of our trip includes reservations at the NUMBER 8 RESTAURANT IN THE WORLD, which happens to be in Lima and Japanese-Peruvian fusion. Also, in all honesty, I need to explore the historical center/sites of Lima.

Scrappies: Meygan got robbed in a taxi yesterday! But, she also jumped out of the cab, chased the dude in flip-flops, punched him so he lost his balance, and recovered most of her stuff. Sploosh. Also, I am not getting VIP Kid bookings quite as consistently as I would like, which is causing me to continually recalibrate just how broke I am willing to be when/if I come home. Finally, traveling around South America is pretty expensive :(. Flights are not like in Europe or Asia.

Goals: I just applied to a freelance writing job, so I’m hoping that could pan out for some extra cash. It looks like it would mainly be blogging and videos, so right up my alley. I also responded to a family who reached out to me to be their kids’ personal tutor/nanny? They own communal living spaces in Madrid (and sometimes Thailand and France) and want to move to Stinson beach to put their three young kids in a small public school system that is demographically diverse, near an urban center, and open to parent involvement. Essentially, they want me to coparent with them, focusing specifically on their kids’ educational development. It could be really cool, it could be a cult. They’re looking for someone to start in January, though, so I’m not sure I’ll be ready to be stateside again by then.

Cry Count: 2 (I booked an Uber then ran out of phone credit on my way to work. I cried in the street and the taxi drivers took pity on me and gave me a good rate and a ride to work).
