#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan xichen#jin guangyao#jiang cheng#wei wuxian#qin su#EDIT: Tumblr published an earlier draft with only half the notes I wrote so: late entry on my JGY thoughts.#Unlike the mystic powers of the stockmarket (what the OG meme is referring to) I think this situation calls for more active investigation.#qin su is such a deeply tragic character to me and I really wish we got a bit more from her.#Love everyone who sent me messages about her after the last time she appeared.#I think she needs a spin off of her being a transmigrator SO badly.#MDZS has so many interesting characters - but it sometimes fails to give them the proper room to really develop past a role in the plot.#That's just the consequence of writing a story like MDZS. Not every character in a book *needs* to have a rich inner life and backstory!#To do so would bog down the story and obliterate any notion of pacing. It's just not possible.#Jin Guangyao (nee Meng Yao) is unfortunately not free from this leeway rule. He is the culprit of this murder mystery plot#and thus NEEDS to encapsulate the themes of the book. And personally he's a 7 out of 10 at best on this front (in the AD).#MDZS is about rumours twisting reality and working towards truth. And about how people & situations are rarely ever black & white#JGY has his motivations. He's well written in regards to his actions making sense for his character.#What started as good traits (drive to succeed & improve his image) became twisted over time (do anything to maintain his image)#and it's a good parallel to WWX! He has the same arc (with different traits)! Bonus points for IGY in that regard.#but man....by the time we confront this guy for murder there's not a lot of grey morality. He's just...deep in the hole *he* dug.#There's a beautiful tragedy to it! More on JGY in later comics - this is getting pretty long already!

pretty old OCs brought back, I think Nycta was my first human(oid) OC even. finally something for artfight people who dont draw furry lolol
Nycta got refreshed while Neb was finally drawn after existing for years only inside my head. it's been so long since I first came up with her character that I only remembered her nickname, dark skin, short black hair and shapeshifter gimmick
these are my only OCs which are actually meant to exist in the same world/setting. them and my less humanoid boi Averyll (which now out of the trio is the only one without a ref with description aww)

YEAH!!! survivor ref!!!
like Monk, Survivor has nightcat (species) ancestry and is heckin sparkly :] bc i like sparkles
The fluffy black patches are the result of mosaicism! basically Survivor has 2 sets of DNA (aka being a chimera). in animals like cats, this can result in otherwise impossible color/fur texture combinations (such as a shorthaired cat having longhaired patches).
Also Survivor has so many scars bc she wants to fight!!! She has a knack for sensing danger but just bc she knows it's there doesn't mean she makes smart decisions when dealing with it lol
Notes transcript:
Snowy, "The Survivor;" she/her
Left side:
optional whiskers
one eyelash
black patches are fluffy and have glowy sparkles
leg scar is from initial fall
limps; pain flares up sometimes
dropwig bite on tail
Middle:
(left ear drawn upright for clarity)
pretty strong stop
beans with white are a different color
Right side:
lizard bite on back
neuron glow: white (#f5fbfd)
pup version has no sparkles

This is Lily. My TF Prime OC. She became Starscream's emotional support bestie. Because my lord he needs one.
Lily found Starscream the way kittens in the cat distribution system find humans. (A little while after S02E05.)
Click for better quality.
Please don't repost to other socials thanks!
@fluidfox123 BESTIE I FORGOT TO POST HER ON TUMBLR. HERE.

Is anyone else still caught up on the parallels between Imogen and Opal?? Because I am.
I was revisiting my c3e92 and c3e93 live thoughts and came across two big points:
Firstly the parallel of Ted disappearing in order to protect Opal with Liliana disappearing to protect Imogen. And the contrast of Ted, who did so by becoming an inseparable part of Opal while Liliana tore herself away desperately trying to separate herself from Imogen. Both done out of a will to protect the other. (Fyi This was written during e92 before the Aevilux reveal)
Secondly, after the Aevilux reveal, this connection hit me: The locket Imogen got from Relvin (potentially carried by Liliana) carried her baby fingerprint and the words “The better halves make/become a better whole.” A sentiment that Imogen tries to use at the Malleus Key and on Ruidus to get through to her mom. And who is a near perfect literal manifestation of this? THE AEVILUX. The people who split their souls in two (or were born separate in Opal/Ted’s case) and live independently before reuniting again and becoming more powerful for it.
Now imagine Imogen and Opal were to meet (obviously possible as both are being pushed to fight Predathos/those trying to free it) and Imogen repeats the locket phrase and something about it sounds so familiar to Opal, but she just can’t remember it. The group realize that there are gaps in Opal’s memory. Eventually Imogen is able to restore Opal’s memories, living through them alongside Opal in the process (kind of like how she projected herself into Laudna’s head in e103). Then Opal helping Imogen get through to her mom in turn. Or even just them fighting side by side to prove how much stronger you can be if you stop running from your better half. That coming together is a way better way to protect someone than running away and fighting those battles alone.
TLDR: I need Imogen and Opal to meet and talk this instant. Please Mattholomew Mercer I would do anything.

i have officially returned. ask me anything.
#random thoughts#i'll probably answer it tomorrow because i'm tired. i don't know why.#ciel if you see this i've been nicer to myself these past few days following your birthday. taking care of myself in general aspects.#which i sort of hate myself for but it's okay because. uh. i won't be like this forever. i'll be better at what i'm trying to do i promise.#new year's resolution is not fucking with me.........#oh also!! i've been sort of feeling like a dead person at times. and also like a cockroach. i have had to repeatedly tell myself that#i'm not dead i'm not dead!!!!#because i'm not. obviously. and i know i'm not. my brain is just silly. it likes to tell me i am things i am not like book characters.#and recently my mother got me my own rosary and we've been practicing praying together with my brother.#can you imagine how bad it must be for me to turn to christianity as a coping mechanism? not even when i was terrorized with death thoughts#not even in august for fuck's sake.#but it's actually not that bad. though i think i like the idea of organized religion more than i like being a part of it.#also i feel like my being catholic (mostly non-practicing) is betraying the queer community somehow. like. queer people have suffered#so much because of the christian church in general. so it's like. being christian is weird when i'm also queer.#but also then i feel weird when i try to do things in relation to christianity. like. put saint in my artist name.#that feels blasphemous i don't know. is it?????? it's not that serious either way but. augh.#i am going to write a song about this. also fellow christians is it okay to use the lyric 'uselessly clutching her rosary' or is that bad?#because i mean. technically. the she i'm referring to sort of is. because god isn't solving any of our problems.#he's just fucking. watching. if he's even real.#(and no my disappearance isn't related to the catholicism thing it's something else. as in the one thing i haven't told anyone else but cie#and an irl friend. if you are ciel then i am completely open to talking about said thing.#otherwise i will continue to drop cryptic little notes on my blog because I AM SILLY. {: )#going to play roblox now and maybe say hello to you fuckers on discord for a bit of fun. goodbye.

me and my friend have the same thesis advisor and we just learned that she gave us different page counts for how long our proposals should be, and either a) it's because she's just playing fast and loose with the proposal guidelines, or b) she knows my friend tends to write too much and I tend to write too little, so she gave me a longer page limit and my friend a shorter one. I really hope the second thing is true because that would be the most genius brain maneuver and she deserves a raise for that

thinks about how Shidou is constantly chasing after a past that will never be revived vs Mahiru constantly chasing after a future that was never meant to be
MILGRAM Portal Timeline (2023/10/24, Shidou's birthday) Mahiru: Shidou-san, you have a family...right? Having family, having children, how does it feel...? Shidou: Yes, it's a wonderful thing. Children are...Well, they're hope itself. When you have children, growing older becomes enjoyable. The more you age, the more your children grow. Mahiru: Ah...how wonderful. It was my dream to become a bride. It may be a little old-fashioned but, I wanted to make it come true... Shidou: It's not too late. I will keep you alive, Shiina-kun. Let's get out of here and make that dream come true. ...You still have your whole life ahead of you.
Despite their hopes being snuffed out by the loss of their loved ones, they still find hope within each other.

I've been on a roll with drawing lately and used that momentum to launch into a long overdue drawing of @chaospastry's character, Marissa!!
I've meant to draw her for a very long time, and finally doing so was really wonderful. She's super cute and it was a blast to actually sit down and finish my sketches!
