"They were a good person with good intentions and strong convictions and belief in doing the right thing. And because of that they deeply hurt people including people they were trying to protect" - is fantastic characterisation that too many people reduce to only one half of the equation

"They were a good person and people still died because they didn't put trust in anyone else" ← is so fucking good but people don't fucking appreciate it

"They were a good person and they failed. Over and over again. They failed." ← DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND HOW DELICIOUS THAT IS!?!?

I am on my hands and knees begging people to allow characters to be complex and flawed and not reduced down to "The Good Guy" and "The Bad Guy"

when the persona you made eats you; when the performance youve been putting on eats you; when the name they gave you eats you; when the image people made of you eats you; when the role you were assigned eats you; when the you that other people see or even made for you or you made for them takes over the you that you know and eats you alive.

Something about children instinctively loving to be tragic. Explains the widespread occurrence “playing orphans.”

Have to explain to parents walking in for pickup that their children are flinging themselves onto the floor weeping because I gave them the simple prompt “say this line like you’re sad.” They literally love pretending to be sobbing and crying and boohooing.

sometimes…..fictional characters…….don’t need to name their children after dead people…….

What was your word for "skipping school". This is primarily directed towards british and oirish anglophones but everyone tell me if you're not shy. Ours was dossing / being "on the doss"

Might have been done before but silly tag game. Who is prev's blorbo?

[billiuspendragon]

instead of saying self deprecating, suicidal jokes, try saying "im going to milk myself" like my autocorrect suggested

Oh, you think it's "adorable" that I fell asleep on your lap? Well, it's a mark of my utter contempt. That's how little I fear you.

This has been done for a while now, I got stuck on the last two steps. The cloud wings, and the bubbles. GOD. THE BUBBLES. I learned FOUR ways to draw bubbles, realized how many bubbles I needed, and gave up and eventually half-assed them.

For the wings, I finished one half of them. My mistake, I should have done both at the same time for consistency. But I did one, took a break, forgot how I did it, failed to copy it, then started over. I got burnt out and left it alone for a long time. This is my first time trying clouds.

I also originally intended to include furfrou with the star trim, and a different pose. Altaria was wrapped around her like a blanket for a sleepover kind of feeling. But then, I thought, BUBBLES. I want them. So I started with a completely different drawing.

There’s also a lot I want to fix in the past drawings, I hope I can get around to it.

Anyway. Love kokomi, but I’m so tired of the color blue.

changing my mindset from “if I don’t keep my home clean i’m a useless horrible failure” to “i deserve to live in a comfortable, clean environment, so i will do my best to provide myself with that” has been fairly life changing

and it applies to so much!!!! i try to take whatever i’m beating myself up over, like “i haven’t been eating enough veggies lately so i suck as a human,” and instead reframe it as “my body deserves all the important nutrients found in vegetables” and suddenly i’m ten billion times more inclined to actually prioritize eating more veggies

shame is a paralytic!!!!! self compassion is an actual motivator!!!!!

me rereading my own romance writing: “why did i write this like a victorian man who’s never seen a woman before”

KuboTeru Sibling Headcanons.

Okey, i don´t have time to draw, but writting is a thing, so im just gonna give you guys some headcanons that came to my mind.

Kuboyasu have always wanted a sibling, as a gangster he has always have to take care of someone, so he always thougth he was naturaly at it. But he doesn´t realise he has that type of dinamyc with teruhashi until way later, when he see´s two siblings figth and tease eachother at the convinient store. He then gets excited and get more afectionate with her.

Teruhashi doesnt want anyone to know about the closeness she and Kuboyasu share, for her reputation and mostly to protect him form her fans. So she is distant in school unless they are alone, or outside of school.

Kuboyasu invite her to his house a lot, but at some point, she just go there uninvited and even get keys to his house, and have many of her belonging inside the house, and the guest room is hers. She convince Makoto that she is actually with a girlfriend, cause is safer that her being alone at home.

Kuboyasu tease her a lot about being miss perfect, and Teruhashi mock him over not having eyebrows when he was a punk.

Teruhashi doesn´t know about the gun in the drawer. Kuboyasu hide it better.

Kuboyasu is now inmune to Teruhashi beauty, and Teru is relive and annoyed by it. But now Kubo is weak to sibling love, so he still struggle to tell her no.

Kuboyasu´s dad that was shock the first time he invite her home (he always thoutgh his son migth be fruty), but quickly realize it wasn´t a girlfriend. Now the time she see her, he actually treath her like a daugther.

They actually figth a lot, cause Teruhashi have a pasive aproche to conflict, and Kuboyasu can be to impulsive and violent to things, so they both get annoyed at eachother easly.

Teruhashi sometimes gets to confortable with Kuboyasu and say mean things, he find them mostly funny.

Thats it for now, all i can think of, for now, enjoy.

I wish I had the writer's problem where you accidentally make all your stories way longer than you planned instead of the one where I give up after three chapters

I keep seeing people making fun of using growled, hissed, roared, snarled etc in writing and it’s like.

have you never heard someone speak with the gravel in their voice when they get angry? Because that’s what a growl is.

Have you never heard someone sharply whisper something through the thin space of their teeth? Or when your mother sharply told you to stop it in public as a kid when you were acting up/being too loud? Because that’s what a hiss is.

Have you never heard a man get so blackout angry that their voice BOOMS through the house? Because that’s what a roar is.

Have you never seen someone bare their teeth while talking to accentuate their frustration or anger while speaking with a vicious tone? Because that’s what snarling is.

It’s not meant to be a literal animal noise. For the love of god, not every description is literal. I get some people are genuinely confused, but also some of these people are genuinely unimaginative as fuck.

technically if im consistently inconsistent in my writing that means im consistent too right??
