🍒🍊🦋🛋☔️ for the ask game! you dont have to answer em all
i will answer as many as i can eheh >:)
🍒 - funny story that happened in headspace?
oooh boy i hvae a good one. ok so one time i can't remember exactly what was going on but we'd either had a bunch of splits or a bunch of people were just close to front and like 2 or 3 persecutors were active too so there was like a full blown fight that broke out in headspace but i was. asleep. i went to sleep and tensions were high but i was like fuck this im leaving and sorta hoped if the body was u know. sleeping nothing would happen but i woke up and front was trashed like the sofas were ripped & there was like a 1.5m wide hole in the bottom of our living room leading to the void and i fell in. uh and then phoenix had to fly in and get me.
the rest under the cut because kgjkfhk.oops that got long
🍊 - tiktok audio/vine that reminds you of a headmate?
NO idea. ive been compulsively scrolling ig for the last couple of weeks but shit goes in and out of my mind so quick. i feel like i should know more vines but coming up blank sorry lads
🦋 - any ‘-heavy’s? (introject heavy, little heavy, protector heavy, etc.)
we split introject fragments SO often. like every new media is +1 at LEAST. uh i guess our next -heavy is protector..? theres like 12 of them.
🛋 - what does headspace look like?
big :] and this is the middle layer only, there's a top layer (dormancy void) and a bottom layer thats just white void that only ppl in my subsys can access uhm cuz we're special ^_^ to the right of this one if you step into it you can see the rest of headspace for a couple of steps but if you blink after a certain point you are so so lost. its like those infinity rooms in minecraft. tommy got lost for a week in there once and i was worried sick thinking he went dormant again but he came back like do NOT go there. duly noted. the blue stuff is ocean btw
☔️ - favorite thing about being plural?
havent actually had one of these in a While but group parties ngl. those are amazing. and generally just when anyone is cofront its like free friends .great for pulling u out of spirals too 👍

TW CSA
So I know it’s not implied anywhere but I like to project. Sams demon blood arch and being “dirty” since he was kid resonates a lot with me as someone who has csa. Like you are no longer holy no fault your own and your biggest fear is becoming like them.
the narrative of the show and the general ambiguity of the characters and their backgrounds often lend themselves to alternative readings just like this. the symbolic usage of blood especially allows for interpretations of queerness, rape and sexual assault, incest—things that are generally seen as impurities that make a person dirty and tainted. the thing is inside you and it's part of you and you can never get rid of it. it's not you, not inherently, but it's with you, an inextricable brand on your soul that you'll carry with you forever. blood is equally immutable, inside of you, tied to your essence yet just a part of your complete self. blood represents bonds and relationships. blood kin, blood oaths and sibling pacts, the heart is the source of love and emotion. if the blood is corrupted then so is the self. you've become impure and dirty and you can never remove the dirty thing because it's infected every part of you. it isn't you, but it's in every part of you and when you bleed everyone will know.
it's a strikingly poignant symbol that allows for such varied yet overlapping interpretations, especially in all the ways it's utilized in the show. sam is made impure as a baby; he's not born with it, it's not him, but it's forced onto him and he has to carry that with him forever even though he never consented to that burden. the desire to repent and be good and scrub himself clean is just as resonant: the vain hope to undo what's been done to you and return to a state of innocence even though you can't change the past and you can't retroactively stop what happened. in the end all you can do is become strong enough to carry that weight.
combined with the recurring theme of cyclical trauma and abuse it creates a compelling narrative that strongly resembles CSA. sam may not have been literally sexually assaulted as a child, but the themes and liminality of the narrative generates an anxiety that lets those connections be drawn. the emotions are the same. and that's what stories do: they let us see ourselves through abstracted and symbolic narratives. they let us connect with others through our shared emotional experiences. it's what it's all about.

Heya ! Im curious about your OC Azor! He seems cool :0 First, is his ace a bug type eeveelution ? Do you have a design ? And second, i wonder why no sewaddle when it seams like the perfect match for a bug type specialist and tailor ?
oh my god i'm KICKING myself bc it somehow never occurred to me to give him a sewaddle/leavanny OTL he wasnt always a tailor so i didnt consider it when i was originally building his teams but im kicking myself for not including it in that sewing room piece.. i was thinking less about his actual teams when drawing that (bc half of his 'main' team is fakemon) and more just thinking about getting bug rep from as many gens as possible (sorry to iv and vii for not making it 💔 tho kricketot made it in as a desk sticker at least) but leavanny was the mvp of my original white team so it's Very dear to me and youre right that it's Perfect for him !!
but to go back to the first question !!! yes his ace is a bug-type eevee ! i realised wayyy late that the piece maybe made it look like it'd be a spider-vee since it's an arachnid-heavy drawing but it's a moth called papilleon !! ^__^ it's one of the first fakemon i designed for our fan region. my beloved bug baby
[ID: three digital drawings of a bug-type eeveelution fakemon. its main body is an off-white yellowish colour and it has mossy-green ears, long-tailed spotted wings, and fluff around its neck and abdomen. it has six legs, two compound eyes and two simple eyes, and the ends of its legs are exoskeleton rather than paws. it lacks an actual tail. the second image is pixel art. /END ID]
i had some drawings of it with an older azor design somewhere but can't find it at the moment :")
EDIT: found one !
[ID: a digital drawing of Azor holding Papilleon. in this design, Azor wears red-framed square glasses and his hair is slightly longer and fluffy at the bottom. /END ID]

Thank You!!
Hi guys, I got that new laptop I was talking about. Could't have done it without your support :] I still got a couple of months of payment to do but it's already MOSTLY paid off so I'm pretty happy.
I'm really dependant on muscle memory so I have a lot to get used to, especially since the keyboard layout is slightly different this time. I'm assuming spriting is gonna take some time to get re-used to too.
BUT! Remeber when I got my switch and I decided to do a round of freesprites and everyone had a good time? Let's do it again! I'll be back here tomorrow night, same time, to get your refs. Same rules as last time, but I'll make a new post for it.
Thanks again for commissioning me and buying adopts!
