im really into romantic friendships, but specifically ones where the lines are already so blurred & yet the concept of romance hangs like a guillotine over both heads

#oooohhhhh this is absolutely thea and vilkas coded-

Anyway I'm going to be trying to do some drawing around sorting out my new mattress/removing the old one and I literally just opened up my OC drawings and I think I may need to change the colours of Florian's clothes because my first thought was he looks like he's dressed like Shrek-

#meg is rambling #like it's specifically the colours so I need to change that lol.......

[umbracirrus]

Only thing that's bothering me is that I'm meant to get a call giving a more specific delivery time but I struggle so badly with phone calls 😭

Ahhhh finally the day I get to replace this stupid mattress-

#meg is rambling #i need to be able to see faces and expressions when people talk when I'm talking to them or I just start freaking out #like a teams call? sure I can do that. phone call? nope nope nope nope #only person I could call without panicking was my mum...... sometimes my sister but always my mum............

Ahhhh finally the day I get to replace this stupid mattress-

#meg is rambling #i just want a good night of sleep where I'm not having my circulation cut off by springs or moving for hours to find the one comfy spot #this mattress can just fuck right off...... and I'm more than happy to see it go. #I've genuinely been waiting for this day for weeks. should be here in 2-4 hours so I'm pretty excited

saw something that made me do a double take so: poll

1. for the purposes of this poll, if you have ever written any amount of fanfiction, even just a sentence, even if you don't post it, that counts

2. if you write fanfiction but don't read it please tell me why. i want to study you

#both read and write though have phases where I do one more than another. currently in writing more phase

writers and artists will go "this isn't good enough." my brother in christ, you're creating something new out of nothing and expressing yourself creatively. your productivity and unrealistic standards of perfection do not define you or the worth of your art. you're doing great.

Dahlia enjoys a moment of peace

If you’ve been following me for any decent stretch of time, you’ll know that originally what I started doing here is just writing. It makes me happy, keeps my heart full, and I am stricken with the brain rot, so I do what it tells me. However, I have been sharing my art (mostly hand lettering and plants) as well. I never really (and still do not) consider myself to be an artist, and I have never been able to draw people other than stick figures.

I have been practicing for months and months, and mostly if you see people art that I post here, the outlines and clothing details are traced.

Perhaps this doesn’t seem like much and could definitely be improved, but I did this all by myself (no reference or tracing at all), and I am very proud of myself.

#it's dahlia!!! she looks so calm and at peace!!!

#not including pokemon it was probably disgaea or fairy tail. can't remember which but I remember them #might even have been yugioh thinking on it #i basically watched what my dad watched lol

“Up to no good, are you?”🌌🦊💛

Sweet Roll loves to pull some unharmful pranks to folk around, and her favorite victim, of course, is Vilkas. The easiest way to cause him agony (and wound his pride) is to steal his necklace, most of the times giving or putting it on a certain pretty girl he’d rather not interact with out of shyness because of his curse.

#awww this is such a cute and fun piece of art!! #i love both of their expressions!

Three modes of feelings toward characters as the writer is writing them:

These fuckers (affectionate)

These fuckers (annoyed)

These fuckers (literal)

[umbracirrus]

Please reblog/reply with where and why! I'm curious :)

#probably Skyrim in Whiterun riften or solitude! riften was my first love in Skyrim #and I love the look of Solitude but Whiterun has captured my heart and feels like home #that or it would be chorrol or cheydinhal in cyrodiil!

[umbracirrus]

its so difficult to draw anatomy. and objects. and backgrounds. and clothing. and colors. and lighting. i honestly dont know how i ever managed to draw anything in my entire life

[umbracirrus]

People going about with short sleeves in Skyrim must be some sort of power move.

#meg is rambling #this post is both about balgruuf yet also not about Balgruuf. but he's the first example I could think of. #let's also give it up to generic bandit number 7 with his skimpy fur armour! #in particular in the northern and eastern stretches of skyrim. and in the mountainous areas.

I really do wanna play ESO but like... I never know when if that makes sense? It's on my Xbox and I started playing it months back but BG3 happened and I've just not touched it since. I feel like I'd need to set aside time but I've got short attention spans atm.

If it were steam deck compatible I'd play it on there but it's not. Yet.

#meg is rambling #if I'm reading the eso compatibility thing right it will have compatibility in the future... but it could be tomorrow. could be years. idk. #plus i have a weird relationship with online games. mostly in that I don't like the online part. #I will avoid any and all multiplayer dungeons. group quests. won't chat or trade. ignore all social aspects. #closest thing I did to doing any of the social stuff in a game like this was using the auction house when playing wow years ago honestly

[umbracirrus]

So excited for tomorrow. Might actually be able to sleep properly for the first time in a while...

#meg is rambling #just one more night with springs digging into my body-! been long overdue replacing my mattress.......

Every writer has two sides:

"I love my characters, they are my children and will protect them with my life"

"I wanna make them suffer so fucking much"
