#strange body parts

[lucalicatteart]

 sculpted a strange shimmery two headed snail, speckled with wild flowers on it's shell~

#sculpture #snail #fantasy art #I have never sculpted or even drawn a snail before #so hopefully the anatomy is not incredibly off #(though if so.. I guess it could also just pass as further Strange Magical Mutations lol) #It doesn't show up as well in the photo but the shell has some irridescent eyeshadow on it so it kind of alternates a little warm #red and teal as you move it. #Made for an art contest on a game that I play lol (I wouldnt normally think to sculpt a snail on my own if it werent part of a #prompt) but I do kind of like the way it came out.. sort of.. #Perhaps a real creature that exists in Nanyevimi (my worldbuilding setting) in some capacity then.. hrmm #also in relevance to this blog i DO STILL WANT TO finish the story with the little adventurer... goursh I have just had so much going on.. #all of my little side projects like that have fallen away for so long. I really want his advneture to reach a tiny conclusion though #And shout out to that one person that always reblogged them and left nice comments in the tags also.. :'3 #Poll Adventures.... not over... simply was on temporary evil hiatus due to Me Feeling Sick Constantly All Summer and so on and so forth #aughhh.. woe and agonyyy *dramatically drops to my knees in the middle of a rain storm like some tragic movie scene #kneeling into the cold earth as i cradle the half-living bodies of all of my half-finished creative projects in my arms* #ANYWAY... lol..... erm.. snail time

[ID: a traditional black and white pencil sketch of a design concept for a vampire. Shown in profile, the vampire has his lower jaw dislocated and his upper jaw tilted about 45 degrees upward, causing his mouth to open wide enough to take up more than half the length of his face. The skin slides back from his gums like a glove, revealing large, sharp teeth, and in the back of his mouth, a secondary set of tiny sharp teeth, as well as a very long tongue. In contrast to this, the upper part of his face is unremarkable. He has a longish nose, a severe brow, and big, soft eyes looking upward. Sketchy lines indicate that he has long hair in a bun. End ID.]

hiiii i was gonna do something with this but drawing machine broke so thought I’d just post it. this is ostensibly vampire Jon from my fic Strange Manner, though i didn’t fill out any Jon Details cause i ran out of steam

the important thing to know is that Martin is going to kiss this mouth 👍

#i just think when we talk about Martin being a monsterfucker (ace version) we have to commit to the monster part or what's the point #it’s tangential but I’ll maintag :3c #tma #strange manner #body horror #cw body horror

me reading anything now: well. its not the wolf hall trilogy is it

#still not sure if its gonna be a place of greater safety (i read a few pages into it and camille has new blorbo potential) or #jonathan strange and mr norrell OR get onto part two of the three body problem but. #none of it is the wolf hall trilogy. the way im gonna measure every book against it and the way every book will fall short. OH WELL #txt.me #📚 #wolf hall

I'm not sure how well the netflix adaption of The Three Body Problem is going to explain historical context

So if you give it a watch I recommend reading up on Mao Zedong's Great Leap Forward and China's cultural revolution if you're unfamiliar China's Communist history

The very, very short tldr (that doesn't do the history justice, but if you're gonna read anything it may as well be this) is that once the nationalist party was defeated and the chinese communist party took over in 1949, Mao decided to displace agriculture workers in favor of industrial steel work (Great Leap Forward, 1958) and start a child occupied military group (Red Guards, 1966) to wage a war on education.

So, many people starved and were killed for being deemed intelligent during his time in office. Mao's leadership may have ended with his death in 1976 but the impact of it is still felt in China today.

#the first book is good and gives lots of context in the footnotes but it's part of a series so the pacing is a bit strange #it's good it just took me a bit to get through #the three body problem #i am in no means a historian which is why I had to read up on it myself so hopefully this helps anyone like me

been thinking of Loki as a vengeful ghost/demon that tries to kill Thor after dying on Jotunheim except instead of killing Thor straightup Thor's on a quest following a trail of weird clues and strange happenings across multiple realms sort of? so Loki is just leading him around not showing himself but very much heartbroken in the distance about how Thor just 'moved on'. Meanwhile on Thor's end it's very evident in how Thor handles quests once Loki is gone that he still follows all the advice and suggestions Loki made, and tries to consider what Loki would have done when he does things.

#im not writing it because i have too many works in progress already but do you see my vision #do you understand the vibe i am going for #tragic death Loki and Thor who never processed Loki's death beyond 'he's not here right now' #and this is maybe like. way after Loki's death. like at least a century later so no Thor doesn't immediately suspect anything #is it strange that he's witnessed multiple similar occurrences and connecting clues across multiple realms like they're for him? #yes. #but he thinks he's being so suave and detective about solving this mystery and suspects a powerful malicious demon figure to be behind it #not his dead brother who he feels wholly responsible for having died since he was the one that dragged them to Jotunheim for fun #Loki who died confused and resentful about so many things and upon realizing he's Not Exactly Stayed Dead deciding he was abandoned #because no one returned for his body but they also never explained anything to him which meant he had to seek answers himself AFTER HE DIED #reasonable to say he wasn't happy about it and isn't out to hurt random strangers #but Thor and Asgard? #he has a vendetta and he has it planned out so neatly #sans the part where he actually. kills Thor. because he only thinks he wants that #he would do it too if Thor didn't get reasonable about Loki wanting revenge at the end #'when did Thor get mature' Loki wonders bitterly. like it's such a mystery

i headcanon that lake likes warmth but they don't naturally produce much body heat on their own

so sometimes jesse will wear a jacket for a couple minutes to warm it up before giving it to them to wear

#eliot posts #intr #infinity train #infinity train book 2 #jesse cosay #lake infinity train #jesslake #queerplatonic jesslake #my parents' house used to get HELLA COLD on winter mornings #so the trick was to get your outfit ready and when the alarm rang‚ hit the snooze button‚ grab the clothes #and pull them under the covers with you while you go back to sleep for 10 minutes #so they'd be warmed up from body heat when it was time to ACTUALLY get ready #bc otherwise you'd have to put on freezing cold jeans on a winter morning and that was just the WORST #i have no reasoning to back up the first part of this headcanon #for all i know lake could be strangely warm like kez canonically is

this might be a controversial take but i believe lucien castle is the embodiment of the bisexual dilemmas “do i want to BE him or be WITH him” and that moment when your male and female crush start dating each other

#would anyone be offended is i said they remind me of part 1 sasuke and naruto🧍🏽‍♀️ #what really happened in 1002 france… #klaus mikaelson #lucien castle #klucien #it’s so interesting bc their subtext is closer to sapphic coding i think… like jennifer’s body yellow jackets hotd #i watched a video essay on those movies/shows recently and it strangely reminded me of these guys #the originals #tvd #tdvu #mine

Strange parasite

Redraw of an older piece (og under the cut)

#jekyll and hyde #the strange case of dr jekyll and mr hyde #dr jekyll #ms hyde #gothic lit #ladies book club #The og has its own charm but im happy with how I improved!! #also its interesting how the meaning has changed without the piece changing itself #like when I drew the first one Jekyll and Hyde had the dynamic most adaptations go for #with them being two people in the same body #but as time has gone on i've gone more with how the original book portrayed them #that being the same person #so the meaning has changed drastically. like kill the part of yourself that conforms or whatever #idk idk

are alternates annoyed by music because they are beings of chaos and music is the opposite of that or are they just strange like that

It's to do with the vibrations - some feel nice, but most of it is just too much going on at once and it feels wrong, if that makes sense? To most alternates, the sound is just a mild annoyance and 'a pointless thing humans like' and alt!Cesar was of that opinion too until it actually sat and listened and made connections to the real Cesar's memories and how much of Mark was ingrained in the experience of it all. Then, for some reason, music became a little more meaningful to it, even if the vibrations of some instruments are unpleasant.

#hail true body au #mustang answers! #htb alt!cesar #htb mark #for the most part yeah. alternates are just weird like that lmao #but mostly it's to do with how they interact with analogue tech and how the vibrations feel #strange little beasties that's for sure

sorry if I don’t remember your name or conversations/experiences or basic things about myself, every few weeks my brain gets factory reset and I have to relearn how to be alive

#lighthearted but also serious bc what is going on here buddy #been feeling weird as hell these past few months #like I can remember some stuff… but it doesn’t feel normal to forget the names of anyone I haven’t seen/heard the name of in a few days #or forget about basic interests and personality traits and experiences and feel like a blank slate every day #idk like ultimately life goes on and I’m happy to live in the moment but it would be nice to understand why my brain is doing this #just thinking #meposting #I think my brain just. does this sometimes when I’m stressed. which is annoying #I recall (lmao) feeling similar during earlier parts of life so this isn’t *new* it’s just unexpected and much more disruptive as an adult #I’m feeling better about it than I was. after like. acknowledging it. bc my mind has not always felt like a sieve it isn’t always this bad. #whatever #I’ll tag as dissociation just in case it’s related/reminiscent and ppl don’t want to see that #dissociation #me and her go way back… haven’t seen each other in years though #she wasnt all bad! coping mechanisms can provide relief and a sense of safety #and as far as coping mechanisms go it’s not the most unhealthy. though it ranks high in ‘socially stunting’ #I kind of miss the distance sometimes to be honest everything’s just So Much all the time #I’m so solid now #so stuck in the ruts of capitalism #fuck capitalism #I wish my imagination didn’t feel so dulled #sorry I love talking #and I don’t miss dissociation when I feel mentally present because I feel so Here with the people and things I love but rn? #it’s like a lose-lose bc I am not Here nor am I untethered. I’m heavy yet hold nothing #I enjoy being dramatic/poetic about it — I feel pretty fine. I just hope this isn’t a permanent and/or long-term state of existence. #like it makes me awful at my job I went from remembering a solid amount of the student body’s names (built up over a few years) to. like 5. #overnight it felt like. like Stressful Thing happened and I went to work and I couldn’t remember anyone’s names. #can’t believe I have to start from fucking scratch AGAIN I’d be better off quitting and working at a different school #bc at least then my lack of knowledge/remembering is justified rather than strange and seemingly rude #I’m getting better now but at the beginning of this it was blue screen in my brain all the time

ignore the blank space by Tic

well. i HAD another character fully done (well, technically 2 bt that doesn't matter since it was only a head of one of them) krita really hates when i insert text though. so that's all gone, but have all (-2) of the users i've designed so far i also had a little thing that related to lore but krita hated that apparently (how dari i even attempt to insert text and forget to save the drawing)

anyways, bet you didn't expect me to make KinitoPET user ocs, didja?

#silverware's art #YOU #kinitopet oc #<- technically that's what they are #i'm just really tired of this #it's fine ig but. #but it feels so wrong posting something i don't deem “finished” but if i redo it i might start crying so. y'know. i don't think i will rn #i just really saw myself in the user that got deleted (and. y'know. it took a fucking hour) #i was almost crying because of that!! fun! #i'm usually not that emotional too!! extra strange #i'll redraw it eventually. i just don't wanna look at these fools anymore. #(i say that like i won't draw them like. right after i post this-) #um. anyways. yeah. they all still have smiley pins (or keychains. or stickers... or body parts i guess...) #these guys are pretty easy to draw but god... i don't want to colour match Pal (the user that got deleted) #selina is the only dumbass here who used a real name (well. rei and Av just shortened their names but at least they did something-)

I miss my wisdom teeth more than my fallopian tube tbqh.

#they’re the only body parts I’ve had removed and I feel strangely violated by the wisdom teeth one #I REALLY feel their absence. my jaw hasn’t sat right in like 3 years #the fallopian tube?? never knew her #she means nothing to me #hell get rid of the other one I don’t give a shit! #just gimme back m my teef!!! #hag life
