#thanks for all the suggestions guys

[ccycloneblogging]

Thank you to everyone who submitted a suggestion! I actually had more people asking for various fandoms - unfortunately I struggled drawing some of those characters, but I do appreciate everyone's suggestions!

So! Here's Bobby x Hoppy, DogDay x CatNap, DogDay x Craftycorn, and then my choice - DogDay dealing with multiple crushes.

#ccyclone rambles #dogday x catnap #catnap x dogday #dogday x craftycorn #hoppy hopscotch x bobby bearhug #bobby bearhug x hoppy hopscotch #I will hold on to the headcanon of DogDay falling for all of his friends and cannot deal with it. #Thanks again to everyone who gave a suggestion! I hope you guys don't mind that I wanted to focus on something more relevant to the blog

Seven Deadly Sins Series (NSFW 18+)

lust (noun) - a shortcut to sexual fulfillment, but it doesn’t actually get you there. When you lust after someone, you are objectifying that person for your own selfish pleasure. 

The summer heat beats down with a strength that must rival that straight out of Hell, Eddie thinks. 

The thermometer Wayne keeps on the porch outside reading somewhere between ninety degrees and the devil’s asscrack and Eddie can feel all of it. 

Sweat rolling down his spine even where he’s sat in the shade, sunglasses and baseball cap on and a glass of ice water pressed to the back of his neck. 

You couldn’t pay him enough money to set foot in the grass, to feel the sun hit his skin and start burning it instantly.

The only thing keeping him even outside is Steve. 

Steve who is washing his car like it's the most important job he’ll ever have. He’s paying attention to details that Eddie’s never even noticed, let alone noticed were clean.

But that’s not what Eddie’s paying attention to anyway is it?

No. There might be one thing in the steamy July air that is hotter than the sun, and it's the thoughts running through Eddie’s head. There’s nothing cool about those. 

See, Eddie’s covered in a layer of grime and his hair has gone frizzy and he’s sprawled across the couch in a way he knows makes him look less like a man and more like a deflated balloon.

But despite the heat, Steve looks like a vision.

He’s got on a tight little pair of cut-off shorts that do absolute wonders for his thighs. 

He’s ripped the sleeves off and cropped one of Eddie’s old band shirts, a white one at that, and Eddie’s eyes can trail all the way from his shoulder to his happy trail, view unobstructed. 

He’s got his hair pushed back with a pair of sunglasses that started on his eyes but were apparently hindering his vision too much. Whatever. Eddie’s not complaining. He looks sexy with his hair pushed back.

It started out innocent enough. With Eddie mentally making a note to tell him he looks cute the next time he’s close enough to the porch.

But that was before he took a break from scrubbing to douse himself under the hose. 

Because now Eddie’s old, white band shirt is stuck to his skin like glue. Like it was painted on just for him. Eddie loves Steve’s strong arms, he does. But he’s never going to pass up an opportunity to watch the way the muscles in his back ripple under his skin. The “Metallica” stretched across his shoulders is just icing on the cake.

When faced with the wrath of the sun, Eddie’s skin turns pink and tender. But Steve goes a beautiful warm golden and his freckles seem to multiply. 

Right now Eddie’s eyes are glued to Steve’s legs. The way his muscles go taut when he squats down to scrub at his hubcaps. If he squints hard enough against the harsh afternoon light, Eddie can almost make out the indentions of his own teeth on the underside of his thigh. The fading purple bruise he’d sucked into soft skin, sweaty for an entirely different reason. 

He thinks of the way he’s made those strong legs tremble and shake. The way he’s had them wrapped around his waist, his head. 

Steve shifts and sits on the grass, leans back on both of his hands and throws his head back with a sigh. Eddie’s gaze gets redirected to the shirt clinging to his chest, his soft, but still strong tummy. 

He wants to lick his collarbones and leave bruises on his neck. More bruises, that is. There’s already a few mottled across his skin because Eddie just can’t help himself. How could he? How could anybody help themselves with Steve in their lap whimpering their name like a prayer? Eddie gave up trying to hold back a long time ago. 

When his eyes come back into focus Steve is stretching to reach across his windshield, back muscles stretched long and strong. If Eddie closes his eyes he can imagine the feeling of the welts he’d left across his skin. Claw marks drug all the way down his back. Can almost imagine the feeling that elicited them. The groan he’d pulled out of his boy in turn. 

Eddie snaps his eyes open and is met with Steve’s lazy smile looking his way and he really can’t be blamed for the heat it sends dipping into his stomach and the strained huff he grits out. 

The way Steve throws his head back again, this time in a laugh at Eddie’s distress, doesn’t help his case. 

It gets the worst though, when Steve sets to detailing the hood. 

Now he’s got his back directly facing Eddie. He’s bent over at the waist, hips popped back and his spine dipped low and Eddie’s not a praying man, he’s not. 

But he’s about to send up one of gratitude because sometimes he can hardly believe Steve’s his. 

And Eddie’s not stupid. He knows Steve’s onto him. He knows because he’d laughed. Because he’s peeking over his shoulder every few seconds to see if Eddie’s eyes are still on him. He knows because he’s tugged his little shorts up enough that the crease of his ass and his thighs sits right below the frayed denim hem. 

There might’ve been a time where Eddie would’ve tried valiantly to redirect his train of thought. To stop himself from making a fool of himself. But now Steve’s his boyfriend. And Steve knows Eddie’s thinking about getting him naked more often than he’s not these days. He’s just as bad. 

So Eddie lets himself sink into it. Into the visions of the bounce of Steve’s cheeks when Eddie smacks him. Of the tiny freckle just shy of his hole and how he loves to sink his teeth around it. The tiny heart tattoo on the back of his right hip that Steve totally should not have let Eddie give him, but they both love nonetheless.  

He thinks about the way his normally strong voice, breaks and goes soft when Eddie fucks him. The way he squirms when he rides Eddie’s face. 

The goosebumps that break out across his skin on the comedown and his glassy eyes and soft smile. 

His eyes are wide open but he’s so lost in the memory of his boy’s ass pulled against his hips that he misses when Steve stops washing his car and climbs the steps of the porch. Doesn’t see him until he feels his weight drop down across his lap and hears Steve ask what he’s thinking about in a sultry whisper.

So Eddie really doesn’t feel all that bad about his thoughts burning hotter than the summer sun when he says, “Nothing, baby. Just you.”

New OCs

(briefly, humans and supernatural beings have to team up for building better relations with each other and all the supernaturals can shapeshift and take on human appearances but also have their 'original form'.)

OK so I was GOING to draw fanart today - I had a fun idea and everything! But health anxiety (and anti-anxiety meds) wore me out so I kinda .... slogged through OCs as a treat to me. I am going to go to the doctor tomorrow so HOPEFULLY it's all okay.

#my characters #also kite is the worst socially and says things he thinks are surely fitting for a human conversation #but ends up insulting grady with 99% of the comments and that makes grady not fond of him #but then grady is like super pleasant to others and doesnt know how to act around kite and flubs a lot too #its a disaster and the twins are like oh no this is painful #mr tengu that was so tacky you cant say that to a human #mr tengu you cant DO that to a human STOP BEING LIKE THIS #while callum is just like wow this is hilarious thanks for bothering my younger brother its adding character to his life #and kite is stressed because thats the least encouraging thing to hear ever thank you v much hes TRYING to adapt #but also kite isnt his real name and he doesnt know squat about humans BUT he knows they have the internet #and so hes like well the problem is i dont want to actually say my name to you all because what if i am Online (TM) #and so he asks for a new name and then is like he should name me - the tiny one who wants to kick my ass should name me #so grady is like ....... nooooo...... dont............ and then suggests kite bc he's done google research #and kite is a type of bird and according to wikipedia has some familiarity to tengu so therefore yeah #and kite is like !!!!!! DOES HE ! KNOW THINGS ! and happily accepts the slightly researched name while the other humans #are like grady stop that is bullying the poor guy leave him alone pick a normal name! #anyway not drawn yet but there is a human guy partner for the twins and he immediately is like perfect #i know which is which lets go out and explore the human world for your research #and they dont understand how he knows them apart so fast and none of the other humans seem to tell em apart #but then none of the humans are shocked at the guy who knows so the girls are like sir howst do you know #and hes just v casual oh right yeah younger identical twin sisters - i have Practice ! and they are endeared to him haha #anyway if you read all those tags ty #and yes in his tengu form he does actually have the long nose please do not be mad #i just dont draw noses normally and im too tired to practice rn so #i only drew the second one today anyway - the first pic was done a couple days ago but i didnt wanna post on main #but then here i am posting on main #im sorry

[skyafied]

WHY ARE YOU SO EVIL!!! /POS. ATTACKING YOU.

Xemnas and Xigbar for 37 if that number hasn't been done? If it has, how about 74?

no puedo pedirle lo eterno a un simple mortal // ay, todo lo que he hecho por ti.

[ID: a mostly black and white drawing with a purple overlay of xigbar and xemnas shown from the hip up on the left side of the image. the background is black and has some diagonal lines with a bit of transparency on the right side. the shadows are harsh, with only a bit of light falling on their faces.

they stand before each other turned to the audience. xigbar, holds the handle and the middle of No Name before him, head tilted down as he looks to the audience. xemnas stands a full head taller behind xigbar, his left hand held some distance below the bladed tip of No Name, his left eye is covered by his fringe.

xemnas visible eye is painted ochre with a white pupil, while xigbar's eye is white and gold. The eyes on no name's handle and the gazing eye on the blade are a vibrant cyan. the caption reads the spanish lyrics "i can't ask a simple mortal for a forever" and "oh, everything i've done for you." /End ID.]

Shoutout to @today-is-not-over for requesting some Lash!

#I do think I'd design Lasciel differently! #For example- she'd be blonde(duh) but also wouldn't have that mole that I took a lil' artistic liberty on.... I don't know! #Honestly it's been awhile since I've doodled anything at all- so this was nice. Thanks for the suggestion! #The Dresden Files #Jim Butcher #Lasciel #Lash #Fallen Angel #art #fanart #Someone also suggested Harry/Lash hijinks and I would love to make a comic with them sometime. #It's been awhile- how are you guys doing! :)

[coolnonsenseworld]

Could we get a side by side of the Lance birthday art and the Keith birthday art?

Ayo absolutely

DanceAU, AndroidAU, AUsAU (K1,L2), HEX, AncientAU

#i wanted to suggest its time to pick a favorite pair but keith1 and lance2 are not technically a pair #a pair of guys you know #im way past the cheating theories #if anything it would be a 3way what what who said that #in all seriousness they are great buddies though #if you count constant arguing but repetitive mutual life rescues as friendship #that's them #as a fav i recommend danceAU they just want to eat sushi and destroy homophobia #thanks anon I hope its satysfying to see them together!!!

[ask-the-totally-real-peppino]

Maybe the unknown clone can be called Marble? Or does it have a name and we just dont know-

(Marble is a very cute name! But not sure if it fits them, and I do wanna stick with the food theme (Well, I say that, but Eglantine is a flower and not a food, and food marbling is a thing jfdsjklds), but I appreciate the suggestion! (And I might keep it for later bc it is so cute, hehe)

I tried to ask, but they refused a comment (on the count of them taking the microphone and nearly biting my fingies off)

Bacon is also a good name! I actually used it as a placeholder name when I drew them for the first time, hehe

I feel like Bacon is too... Generic??? (Yes, very ironic coming from a person using the name 'Bean') But still, I appreciate the suggestion!

You guys all had the same thought, and I am down with it! Angy little beast man shall be called Pancetta!

#ooc post #Pancetta the Peppiclone #thank you guys for all the suggestions!!! #even if it was a little chaotic for a while jfdkfd

Update & BIG Thank You!

Okay, guys, I finally finished my big group presentation for uni and it went well (I think). Now I just have to wait for my professor to send me my grade. Fingers crossed that I’ll pass the class!

I’m so sorry that I didn’t post for like a full week (again) but I was so busy, and sick, and then my parents came around for my birthday last weekend, and it was all just so chaotic.

But, speaking of my birthday, my friends got me personalized macarons, and half of those had a DD pic on them (and the other half was Harry Styles inspired). I have to share them with you (obviously) because they made me so happy 😭

I was actually going to bake a DD inspired cake, also, but I didn’t get around to do it, unfortunately. (I just baked a “normal” cake, and that didn’t turn out the way I wanted it to. But that’s okay because 21 isn’t that special of a birthday where I’m from, and I’m just glad I got to celebrate it with my family now that I no longer live at home.)

I might have to bake another cake though because I just saw that we hit over 1k followers?? Are you guys crazy?? Thank you so much! I love all of you <3 I mean it!!

Without this community, I probably would have given up on writing a while ago. You’re all so patient with me, you always show me love and support, and it warms my heart to see that we can come together and geek out over the same fictional character(s) that we all love 🤍 I owe you guys so much. This fandom (and Charlie) saved my life. And you guys remind me every day that I shouldn’t give up doing what I love. You help me work on my craft, get better and share it with people. Thank you for your support, your kind words and everything else you’ve done for me over the past year and a half (I think it will be two years in summer, which is crazy).

I have something in mind to thank you in a bit bigger fashion, but for now, take my love and all of my thanks and imagine I’m hugging all of you 🫶🏻 THANK YOU!

Other than that, I’m working on one of my requests AND the next chapter for Do No Harm. I’ll try to post both tonight, though no promises that I’ll get them both done today.

Love,

Lizzi ✨

#lizzi talks #lizzi updates #NO SRSLY HOW DID WE GET TO 1K FOLLOWERS?? #it’s so surreal to me #like you all love my work enough to follow me?? #thank you sm i love you guys so much #best fucking birthday present #daredevil #matt murdock #and the macarons were delicious by the way #I suggest if you know someone who’s obsessed with DD that you get them something like this bc I cried happy tears

[evelynpr]

guys uh...I'm gonna stop playing Honkai Impact 3rd

Not because I'm burnout playing it, or that I don't have time, but the new characters, new world, new story and new...everything? just make it feel like I'm playing an entire new game

This new game, I'm quite optimistic about it really! I think it would be fun, and that people are going to love these characters and be further moved by the stories it'll have. I genuinely do trust HI3rd's team especially since it is mihoyo's favorite child (oh you know that's true)

But at the same time, I think I have wanted to do more in my life. All the new changes, and basically new game in this game, just don't interest me that much, and I think I would get burnt out if I kept playing a game that wasn't the same game anymore.

I'll keep it on my pc, and maybe just play it for Elysian Realm, Superstring dimension, and other random minigames as I want to. Essentially, I'm changing HI3rd from a near-daily investment to like any other classic video game, which is just There whenever you want to play it. No more daily investment. This is probably what's healthier for me since I'm just not that interested in the new content hahaha

Do I still want to talk about Honkai, and make fanart, and just engage with it? ABSOLUTELY!!! I have not stopped talking or thinking or drawing my blorbos my bbgs my darlings. Absolutely please still keep talking about it and having fun, and I still want to join in. Remember, fandom lives on far past the source material.

Will I cry about it though? Yeah I would lmao. I love love this game so much so telling myself to do other things in life instead would be kinda hard, but eh I have Genshin for that hahaha- Honkai has just changed so much, and I think it's time for me to let go of it more as well. This game has changed so much of my life for the better, and imbued me with a love for our own world and the people around me like nothing else. I literally live by "Fight for all that's beautiful in this world", I would have it tattooed if I could.

Sometimes the kindest thing you can do is let it go. With all the changes in this game, and how I'm changing as well, yeah I do think its time to put it at the sides.

#this is absolutely not a post for hating part 2 #or doomposting about part 2 #you guys srsly need to cut it out. please. #there are ppl who are genuinely excited abt this and the developers put their heart in it too #and I think Part 1 coming to an end was good for the story #please just think about it for another minute #if u dont like how the game is becoming another game #I highly suggest you at least take a break as well #or find ppl actually excited abt part 2 #I'm guessing these characters are Like this for now #bcus its just like how Part 1 Started #just a couple of young girls living life and doing their best #so yeah. if you read this. thank you for your time. really. #I more than love this game. This game helped me solidify my will and love for this horrible world we live in. #ok I think thats it #May all the beauty be blessed #evelynpr honkai #honkai #honkai impact #honkai impact 3rd #hi3rd #honkai part 2

omg iskra going back in time auau- but like- garak seeing two random cardassians on the station with no explanation why they r there, and they seem to know him like- what. Would they try to avoid him so he dont sus them out? what about names? They obviously cant say their surnames. And Ziyal 🥺 (sorry this is just such a edible idea anyway)

AWOOOOGH GARAK WOULD BE SO INTRIGUED! you KNOW he'd be hiding behind promenade pylons trying to get a drop on any information about the two cardassians that the captain has let stay on the station during the war against cardassia! You KNOWWW he'd be desperately trying to make eye contact with them at quark's! AND YOU KNOW ISKRA WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO RESIST THE TEMPTATION!

Unfortunately Idan is a first year starfleet student and like any student is deeply passionate about the letter and not the spirit of the law, and thinks that they should barricade themselves in their quarters so as to prevent temporal contradiction (as recommended in the textbook). Iskra, who graduated a cardassian jurisprudence apprenticeship and has a degree in comparative galactic law, recognizes that every set of regulations has loopholes just waiting to be tugged open and wiggled through. And that involves meeting all her aunts and uncles in their glory days, causing trouble, making cryptic remarks and flirting up a storm.

They probably do ask sisko to get bashir and garak off the station to minimize interference (Iskra also requests several other random crewmembers be kicked out. Just so that there's no implication about future events.) But not before she gets to meet her yadek! (and maybe get hit on by s3 era julian, eugh)

Iskra goes by her birth family name when she's not on Cardassia to minimize assassination attempts, so they're both Ghilanas (until SOMEONE hacks into the computer on their rented shuttle and finds their ID info...)

And also Ziyal... wary of two shiny young cardassians but still trying to put on a brave face...swept up by their openness and enthusiasm but deeply wary of the secret they seem to be hiding...

#dee s 9 #garashir adoption au #AUUGUHGHGHGH IVE BEEN TURNING THIS AUAU OVER IN MY HEAD LIKE A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE PEBBLE AND NOW ITS ALL SMOOTH! #i know jumja sticks arent cold but in my heart theyre popsicles. cause a big lukewarm chunk of sugar aint it #not pictured: iskra dressing in her two (2) Nice Outfits #she was picking Idan up from his first year internship in the gamma quadrant to take him home for garak and bashirs 25 year anniversary #and they ran into.......time.... issues..... in the wormhole #idan keeps Snapping To Attention around senior officers #and humming vintage earth tunes #so sisko clocks something going on immediately. if the tail wasnt a giveaway. #like I am not sure that the beastie boys are a cardassian cultural import. this boy is not from Our Cardassia.
