pick your battles
#my art#my stuff#art#comic#original art#pride 2024#pride month#trans allegory..... or not even allegory. just trans .... ^_^#i technically cannot come out yet but i don't think the people who i need to not see this stalk my tumblr#i know they stalk everything else like my twitter and my instagram but this might be safe#so fuck it we yap. this is a comic about picking your battles#this is a comic about how for almost a year now everyone at home in singapore has been crying about my sore throat#my terrible fucked up voice. my you know. etc#i came out as not cis and using they/them pronouns in 2015 when i was 14#but no one ever used my pronouns. none of my classmates or friends even up until i left for college in 2020#from 2020 onwards every year i wrote an angry vulnreable essay about how much it hurts that they dont remember#and people would dm me apologizing on their hands and knees and commending my bravery#and then forget about it all over again. id ont mean 'they misgender me and then catch it and apologize and correct themselves'#i mean they dont even get that far#and so you might ask yourself: why have you kept them around all this time?#and i would have to explain that by pure bad luck i grew up in the most conservative close minded community#that all of my ex classmates that stayed in singapore are cishet and upper middle class and chinese singaporean#that i Am the trans person. that they were able to ignore me for a decade partially because there was no one else#so this is a comic about how there is dignity and grace in staying in the closet sometimes#about how not everyone deserves to see you at your happiest. about how some people can go fuck themselves#you know your truth and THATS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS!!! YEAH!!! i love you

Taking pride in One's own appearance.
#you people are becoming my guinea pigs for my finally learning how to communicate information via comics. a thing ive needed to practice at#also BLEGH. YUCK. andrew hussie was right candy makes you sick. this is a little too saccharine for me. yeesh. let me get back to the meat.#isat#isat spoilers#in stars and time#in stars and time spoilers#isat fanart#in stars and time fanart#isat siffrin#isat loop#sifloop#doodlebyte#'let me get back to the meat' i say eyeing something similarly sickly in my sketches. at least it's mildly tormented as a counterbalance...#you people have no idea how much im having to stay my own hand. oh i can draw miserable nudity but the most basic of fluff? visceral#anyway i dont know the logistics of picking up a glass eye or where loop got money (besides pilfering from siffrin) & ive previously drawn#sif with a vague blank middle-grey eye as either being scarred over or a blank occular prosthesis put in quickly at the nearest town#i dont know that they'd have a glass eye during the game but considering prosthesis are reccomended to keep the skull etc from deforming#id imagine it would probably come up postgame as something to do now theyre not on a time limit trying to save the country#plus i assume that having it gouged at by a sadness wasnt exactly a clean wound by any measure#all this to say. idk i just wanted to get some information across in comic form to Test my Abilities#and we're far enough down now to say my absolute most wretchingly sweet fluff headcanon that actually inspired this#which is that i think siffrin gets into the habit of not wearing the eyepatch around loop so they kinda match.#and as a signifier to the other that they're letting their guard down around them. vulnerability etc.#just kinda wearing it around their neck so they don't lose it

#honkai star rail#dan heng#march 7th#danmarch#fanart#hsr#what else do i tag. i have no idea#anyway. im breaking my VERY LONG oc art streak to post my one(1) contribution to star rail#i care them very much#ive been playing this game so religiously and they have not left my team#tragic past(emo) vs tragic past(girly pop)#theres NO WAY with marchs very teenage girl mind that she does not have a crush on the hot cool mysterious yet caring dragon guy#who stays in the room right next to her#and the fact that he teases her so much........#the whole ass belabog quest he throws in little harmless march roasts every so often#he fucking CARE her#i bets shes like a filipino mom with that camera. every oppertunity (picture!!!!)#and dan heng gets dragged into it#he is honing his photography skills against his will#any nice place? shes like (lemme pose can you get a photo of me?)#dan heng just sighs#they bond over silently judging stelle rummaging through the garbage#cast each other that best friend glance as half her body is sticking out of a trash bin#i like to think you see them hanging out on the train together#with dan heng reading some obscure 8th century book on civilization pattern and development#and march is humming and putting stickers and aesthetic shit in her scrapbook#taping a piece of antimatter legion loot in the middle of a page#and with bubbly handwriting (we beat some bad guys today!!! <333 so fun!!)

Still always looking for ways to use this cardigan in things because I really like all the silly little pictures on it, but it doesn't match with much since it's such a bright pinky kind of color. but is similar to these very fluffy shoes lol
#mori kei#ish... i guess lol#jfashion#ootd#The ancient sparkle tights making a reappearance. I think Ive had them for like 12 years lol#Many of the stones have fallen off and been glued back on#self#oh if only I weren't the most hot natured person on the planet.. so I could actually wear such heavy coat things outside#I mean in daily life I am indeed layered head to toe even in the summer but like.. light layers.#I could NEVER wear a thick sweater or knit cardigan or etc. in daily activities. even in the middle of winter#It can be like 25F outside I will still start sweating if I have too heavy of a coat on.#I don't like being touched without clear notification and permission (no spontanous hugs or etc) since#I just dont like the sudden sensory jarringness of unexpectdly having someone in my personal space and etc#so I really don't make contact with others often at all even people I live with or etc#But occasionally with a close friend or family member our hands might touch for some reason (handing them something. comparing#hand size or color. etc.) and people are ALWAYS like 'wow oh my god why are you so hot?' or like 'oh your hand is so freakishly warm'#lol.. It is I.. the wizard with blood of fire... sadly cursed to never wear cool little cardigans and knit things..#also this is the primary root of my hatred for summer. Putting me in any environmnet over like 65F degrees is like... impossible for me#to stay cool.. .. wintertime my beloved... global warming my BELOATHED

(song insp.)
#these two have me in a chokehold FR#look i just love the idea of them lying on the hood of their truck in the middle of the night sharing a beer and looking at the open sky#buck has one hand in the air tracing the constellations while the other is tangled loosely with tommys at his side#he's talking about how cool it is that different cultures will look at the same stars and draw different pictures#and isn't that a wonderful thing about humans? that we can look at the same set of dots in the sky and through them tell different stories#about what is SO important to us that it must be literally written in the sky? isnt that just amazing?#and tommy isnt looking at the constellations - how can he when theres a star of his own right next to him?#so its evan he's looking at when he softly lets out a quiet “...amazing”#...whoops my fingers slipped#ANYWAYS#stay tuned for more in this moodboard series because it WILL happen#the bucktommy cowboy au nobody asked for agenda is REAL#bucktommy cowboy au#otp: better ways to get your attention#bucktommy#kinkley#tevan#firepilot#fireflight#evan buckley#tommy kinard#911 abc#911 on abc#911 moodboard#em's moodboards#mine#im back on my cowboy bullshit

I am once again thinking about the reluctant ruler whose arc justly and correctly includes assuming the throne and taking responsibility for the people set before them
#it's about simba coming back to pride rock it's about aragorn using andúril to fight for middle earth and assuming the throne it's about#hiccup marrying astrid and assuming his role as chief and moses returning to egypt#and it's about irina loving her people so fully that when she claims all of her subjects as hers that chernobog must release them to her!!!#and it's about miryem choosing to stay with the staryk and repair the damage and assume responsibility for the land and people!!!!!#and! it's! about! gen!!!!#it's ALWAYS about gen!!!!#gen who didn't want to be king. who hated being king and only wanted to marry a queen but who obeyed his gods and became a king over kings#who lost his home and half his family and his HAND but who ushered in a new golden age.#and it's about sophos who ran away but who shot the ambassador and took back his kingdom#it's about duty and it's about sacrifice and it's always ALWAYS about doing the right thing even at great personal cost because it's about#submitting to a power higher than your own. of recognizing that the calling on life is one for serving others and having so much more to#answer for than just yourself. it's knowing duty is love is duty#i cant stand stories where the answer is 'give up the throne and reject your duty' because no!!! you dont get it!!!#thats how you get the monsters!!! thats how you get the prince turned into a beast and thats how you get every terrible weak king that#aragorn feared becoming#to accept your throne is to die to self!!! you are no longer you but 'king' or 'queen'#it's like queen mary says to qeii in the crown 'elizabeth mountbatten must die#elizabeth regina must take her place.'#that's terrifying! but it's also everything!!!!#die! to! self! die! to! self!!!!!!#lilac rambles#lilac goes to the movies#lion king#prince of egypt#lotr#spinning silver#the crown#tqt#the queen's thief#httyd

#I don't know how OCs work for most people but for me there are characters with stories who would stay in the same age#for story purposes#which I never write but let's not talk about that#I tend to create characters with the same age as me so there multiple groups of OCs I made throughout my life#middle school. highschool. university. and adulthood. each with different stories and themes#and I never write or think of the ending so they just sort of go on forever in that time#and randomly I would think like. oh maybe this is how they would be in their 50s#but they would mostly stay in the timeline they're in when their story happens#and some of them just sort of grow older with me#like friends

thesis statement
#some adjustments are likely in order but so far I'm fairly satisfied with this#actually john and paul should stay in upper right while george is middle up and ringo is middle down#well i mean. a lot of these bands have the 1-2 guys who are Plagued By Themes and then all the others are just being dragged along#but we can't get too in the weeds#I know oasis is kind of a genre outlier but their entanglement with beatles ghost bullshit makes them necessary to include#the who get a slight leg-up on the stones because of the immunity to fire damage#most other bands are obviously lower left#not sure who I think should be in the exact middle

Cobras seeing Lucille and Daniel through a window after walking out of Cobra Kai
#Daniel. LOOK#‘Johnny look it’s your crush!’#They’re like a pack of puppies#Dutch literally bouncing off the lamp post#tf#Love how he cozies up right against Johnny’s back and stays out of view. Boy was clingy even in the background#The flirty ‘oh you stop it’ hit Johnny give Tommy. The handshakes. How Tommy follows them in a different direction#than where he was going. The way Bobby is clearly still telling them off blurrily. Standing in the middle. They’re so close#The way they push each other before walking off. The way Johnny is still getting tugged around and pulled towards them.#I LOVE THEM SO MUCH#it’s giving jealous Cobras.#Yall I’m sorry overly possessive of Johnny and stalker ish Cobras makes me FOAM AT THE MOUTH#Og cobras#lawrusso#johnny x cobras#Cobras X each other big cuddle pile in a twin bed#Karate kid#the karate kid#bobby brown#dutch karate kid#tommy karate kid#jimmy karate kid

10 for smoke and mirrors? 😼
Heatwave stares at the bags he's packed.
The room is still just as full without his stuff, which doesn't make him feel any better about this. His guardians assured him that they weren't going to replace him as soon as he left, that they're done taking in sparklings, even with the extra space now.
The thought is nice, but Heatwave doesn't believe them, because he's heard that line too many times without any evidence backing it up. Which he doesn't really hold against them, he loves everyone that lives in his home, it's just...
It's not just regular jitters- sure, this is his first time leaving home, his first time alone, of course he's going to be nervous.
But he's not nervous. He's scared.
Heatwave really should bring up the strange hallucinations he’s been having with his guardians.
His tanks will oddly cramp, he’ll see things in the corners of his optics, or his visual input will suddenly become shimmery and swirly, as he watches events play out before they do.
Now, Heatwave has heard of outliers before. He’s not stupid. But he never thought…
Yet all the signs are there. He’s able to do something no one else can, or rather, something happens to him that doesn’t happen to anyone else. He overproduces coolant and runs hotter than any other mech.
He shouldn’t tell anyone. Outliers are required to be documented by the government, and Heatwave hasn’t heard too many stories of mechs being whisked away to government facilities never to be seen again, as their abilities are exhausted while the government tries to turn them into some sort of weapon.
So no, he’s not telling anyone.
“Heatwave!”
Snapdragon’s voice floats to his audials from downstairs.
“Coming!” He shouts back, leaving his stuff laid on his berth.
The living room is the center of a rare moment of peace- the sparklings are all down for naps, while the older mechs are all out and about. He can see the twins bickering quietly in the kitchen, though.
Snapdragon is standing next to the couch, while Hard Drive, his other guardian, leans on it towards her.
They’re both tall and bulky mechs, bigger than Heatwave. He hates feeling small, but it doesn’t feel so bad when he’s next to them.
“C’mere, kiddo,” Hard Drive says, grinning with badly disguised excitement. “We gotcha somethin’!”
Snapdragon produces a little box and with a grin to match Hard Drive’s, shoves it into Heatwave’s hands. “Go on, open it!” she encourages.
He does, keeping his field tight to his frame so his guardians don’t pick up on the feeling of foreboding he can’t seem to shake.
It’s a universal translator. Heatwave’s tanks drop.
“It was a while of savin’ up,” Snapdragon starts to explain, clapping her hands together with glee. “But so worth it. Our little Heatwave’s gonna be a Rescue Bot!”
Seemingly oblivious to his inner turmoil, both Heatwave’s guardians sweep him up into a crushing hug.
Primus. I can’t tell them I don’t want to go now!
Heatwave worries his lip between his fangs, but returns the hug. “Thank you,” he murmurs.
I have to… I have to at least try.
#heatwave’s good at slipping through the cracks when it comes to medical professionals#when you have something to hide you have to be#but he also has dormant coding even he doesn’t know about#but yeah#he is very much older middle child in giant family#he just like me fr!!!!!#well my family isn’t as big as his but still#and of course he’s nervous he’s leaving home for the first time and can apparently see the future now. I wouldn’t want to leave either#it ends up being a good thing of course#but one can’t help but wonder what would’ve happened if he’d stayed#I’ll go over more what happened to Kaon and heatwave’s family in the tags of a different ask#there are actually some familiar faces in heatwave’s family#but we’ll get to them later#but I am planning on fleshing out every square inch of this universe#maccadam#transformers#transformers rescue bots#woosh answers#thanks for the ask!!#rescue bots au#tfrb heatwave#smoke and mirrors au#academy s&m ask game#ask game
