I think I'm gonna retire Michael Charlotte Ann for the time being. At least his story elements and Angel Valentina. I don't feel like I'm drowning in my trauma and compulsions and thoughts like I did when I made her for the purpose of expressing those, and honestly it makes me uncomfortable trying to draw them in those specific situations. Like sometimes I can make a funni image but when it's like a specific intrusive thought/compulsion as a means of processing that thing it's nausea inducing. But no more trying to make it do that! The design is neat so I'm gonna tweak it a bit, turn that into more of a proper furry as opposed to the simplistic style I've been using, and use that as my fursona-fursona :3

(Part one) / (Levi x reader Masterlist)

The office door fell shut with a clang. Levi tossed the envelope onto the desk, then turned around to face you. You expected him to scold you, but he said nothing. He just stood there and stared at you, one foot tapping the floor in an irritated manner, like he was waiting for something. The silence was hard for you to bear.

"So I take it the drawings are not to your liking, then?" you asked tentatively.

"Now what gave you that impression?" he deadpanned.

"Maybe the way you immediately ordered me into your office after seeing them? Though I guess it could also be to express admiration for my outstanding artistry in private…"

"Certainly not," he huffed. He was scowling again.

"Didn't think so," you murmured. So much for lightening the mood. He really was angry, after all. Maybe you should work on defending yourself.

"You asked to see them, I gave them to you. I did exactly as you told me. So what's the problem, exactly? I can't read your mind."

"Tch," he made. "Guess I need to spell it out for you."

"That would be nice," you said. Though you could already imagine what it was.

"The problem is…this." He pulled out the topmost drawing from the envelope and pushed it in your direction without looking at it. "Why am I like that?"

You gave it a quick glance. He was leaning against the wall, one hand up in his hair, making his bared chest muscles stretch. You had put a lot of attention to detail in there, so you were quite proud of it.

"Shirtless, you mean?"

He nodded, his jaw tense.

"It's a very popular theme with the ladies. I already told you these were all commissions. They want to see what you look like underneath your uniform."

He scoffed. "That's none of their business. Besides, how would you know? You've never even seen me shirtless."

"You are right, I haven't, so there might be some inaccuracies. I'm usually really meticulous, so this has been bothering me for a while, if you must know. I think I got the muscles about right, in fact I really put my heart into those abs...but you probably have some scars that I don't know about, right? Why don't you show me?"

You looked at him expectantly, your curiosity getting the better of you.

"What?!" he asked, dumbfounded. He even forgot to scowl for a moment. "Please? Just a quick peek?"

"No."

"I just want to know if I got it right," you pouted. "At least tell me."

"No."

"Then don't complain if the drawings aren't perfect next time."

His eyes narrowed. "There won't be a next time."

"Right," you mumbled. "I know."

"You apparently don't."

"These really were just drawings I had left from before. What was I supposed to do with them? Burn them?"

"Yes," Levi said.

"Do they really make you that uncomfortable?" you asked.

"They do."

"Okay," you said. "I'll burn them. They make you uncomfortable, so I'll burn them all. Satisfied?"

Levi didn't say anything. He just glared at you, arms crossed over his chest. You could tell he was still mad.

"I am sorry," you said softly.

He nodded. "When you're done burning those drawings, clean the stables. Be thorough. I'll check."

"What? That's gonna take so long!"

"This is nonnegotiable."

"But–"

"You're not happy with your punishment?" he asked with raised eyebrows.

You nodded furiously. "I don't think it's fair." "Fine. After the stables, you will now also do the women's barracks. Not just your room, but all of them."

Your eyes grew big. "You can't even check those," you muttered defiantly.

"I'll ask someone to do it for me. You're lucky, they probably won't have the same standards."

"This is impossible to do in a day," you pouted. "Not that I'm not happy with the punishment. 'Cause I am," you added quickly. You didn't want him to come up with more.

"You have all week," Levi said. He almost sounded amused. His face was back to his usual cool expression.

"Deal." You took the envelope with the drawings from the table, then hesitated, biting your lip. "Levi?"

"Yeah?"

"We'll still have teatime later, right?"

"Of course. Don't be an idiot."

You breathed a sigh of relief.

– –

"Of course he would need to have black, shiny fur", you giggled to yourself as you sat hunched over a piece of paper in a quiet corner of Hange's lab, adding some sparkles to show just how clean it was.

Instead of watching over a very slow, probably very important experiment, like you were supposed to, you were completely absorbed in perfecting your current drawing, which depicted a somewhat irritated-looking cat. Naturally, it wasn't just any cat. You were trying to capture the very essence of Levi Ackerman, distilling it into the shape of the animal on the paper in front of you.

This was your latest plan to get around his order which banned you from making or selling drawings of him. You had to be extra careful after he had chewed you out last time. You'd never seen him so mad. Well, it certainly hadn't helped when you asked him to take off his shirt. He had you scrubbing floors for all of last week. You were finally done with it, and you certainly had no desire to repeat that anytime soon. But you still found it impossible not to wonder whether your portrayal of him had been accurate. (Maybe he'd show you when he wasn't so mad.)

"Don't look at me like that", you mumbled to Cat-Levi, suddenly feeling a little guilty under his reproachful gaze.

"Don't you know I'm doing this all for you?"

If you wanted to be able to afford Levi's birthday present, you had no choice but to resort to methods like these. Surely he would understand. Better yet, he would never find out in the first place.

You nodded at the picture, satisfied. It was still in its draft stage, but it was getting there. In fact, it was kind of cute, and the longer you looked at it, the cuter it became.

"You're so precious," you gushed. "I wish you were real." Your face broke into a massive grin as you imagined what Cat-Levi would actually be like.

Chortling, you started to scribble a list of traits underneath it.

Smol

You don't choose him. He chooses you.

Perpetually grumpy (secretly a big softie but likes to keep the people around him on their toes)

Hits you with his cute little paws when you disturb him while he's sleeping

Hits you when you try to pet him without his permission

If he wants pets, he approaches you first. Then you have to give him attention. If you don't - you guessed it - he'll pout and hit you (with a cute little paw of course)

Is not afraid to draw blood (but with his special chosen person, he hits them paw only without any claws)

Others when they disturb them? They get it bad.

Did I already mention his cute little paws?

Cleanly as fuck. Don't disturb him while he's grooming himself. He will be your enemy.

Has trouble sleeping but when his chosen person is there with him he can relax

Hates being picked up. It makes him feel smol. Never make him feel smol.

Looves head scritches

Loves gourmet cat food. He's a luxury babe. (But if it comes from his favorite person, he will accept anything they feed him.)

You were so immersed in your writing that you didn't even notice Levi leaning in the doorway.

He watched you as you sat in front of the bubbling flasks, bent over your notes, your face hidden behind a curtain of your hair. Your pen was scratching furiously over the paper, exuding an air of productivity and concentration. He was almost impressed.

Then you giggled.

All of his illusions were shattered in an instant. Clearly, you were doing anything but working.

He approached you with a scowl on his face, already suspecting the worst.

"Are you drawing me again?"

You looked up, startled at the sudden presence, but your wide grin remained in place.

"Nooo! It's just a cat. Not everything's about you, you know."

You ostentatiously pushed the drawing over to him, trying to show him that you had nothing to hide. "See?"

Levi peered down at the cat which sat there with a wrinkled nose, its irritated gaze mirroring his own.

"Tch."

Your smile grew even wider. "Buut, now that you're here…lend me a hand, will you? I need help coming up with a name for this cat! What would you name him?"

You held out the drawing to him. He didn't take it. "Shouldn't you be working?" He motioned to the experiment set up in front of you.

"Ah, that," you said, like you had only just remembered it. "Nothing's been happening for the past three hours. I think it's a bust." You extended your hand even further, waggling the sheet of paper right under his nose.

"Come on, it will only take a second. Then I will get back to watching this thing like a hawk, I promise!"

Levi begrudgingly accepted the drawing and read the notes with raised eyebrows. "Who would even like this cat?"

You gasped, clutching at your chest in horror. "Excuse me? I do! Everyone does. He's precious, okay? You wouldn't know true cuteness even if it hit you in the face."

"I think I would," he said, giving you a glance.

"Obviously not. He's like, the definition of cute." You were pouting. "So, did you come up with a name?"

"Hellspawn," he said dryly.

"Noo, that's so mean! That's not even a real name."

"Fine." Levi sighed. He was quiet for a while, thinking. You looked at him expectantly.

"Herbert," he said finally, his tone serious.

You burst out laughing.

"What?" He frowned. "You wanted a real name. I gave you one."

"No, no, it's great, really. You're absolutely right," you tried to appease him.

"Herbert it is then."

Of course, this was just his undercover name. He would always be a Levi to you.

You took the paper from him and added a bowl, lovingly writing 'Herbert' on it in cursive letters.

When you were done, Levi was still standing there with his arms crossed.

You shot him a questioning look. "So, why did you come here? Did you want something?"

"Just wondering why you were late."

"Late?" You took out your pocket watch. It was just after 4 o'clock. "Oh, it's teatime already? I can't believe I almost missed it! I totally lost track of time." You jumped up from your seat. "Let's go!"

"What happened to watching your experiment with hawk eyes?"

You winced, visibly deflated as the excitement drained from your body. "You're right", you mumbled. "I did say that…" Why had you promised that, again?

You slumped back into the chair, eyes fixed on the flasks. They were still bubbling happily, almost as if they were mocking you.

Hange had told you to watch the experiment until they got back. It had seemed easy enough, while also giving you the perfect excuse to get out of today's training. You just never would've imagined they'd take this long.

"Go on without me…" you said in a dramatic, choked up voice.

Levi snorted. He pulled up a chair. "Don't be stupid. You'll get withdrawal symptoms." He knew how you got when you didn't have your afternoon tea. It wasn't pretty.

"These your notes?" He pointed at the lab journal.

You stared at him. It certainly looked like he was offering to watch the experiment for you. But that couldn't be right. You had to be dreaming again. Or hallucinating. It had been a while since you'd had your last tea. Maybe these were some new withdrawal symptoms? Still, you had to make sure.

"Don't tell me… You would give up on teatime for me?"

"Go before I change my mind."

"Wow. For real? Thank you!" You beamed at him. "I'm honestly so touched. You're the best, you know that? The best!"

You bent forward to give him a little kiss on the cheek. His eyes widened.

"I really don't know what I'd do without you," you went on, still smiling cheerfully, before getting up from your chair.

Levi cleared his throat. He wasn't looking at you. "I have work to do. So don't take too long."

"Of course not," you reassured him. "I'll be right back. You won't even notice I was gone."

He rolled his eyes. That was a blatant lie. You always took your time with tea, savoring every last drop.

You were already at the door when you suddenly turned back around.

"I just want you to know…"

"What?" Levi asked.

"I'll never forget your glorious sacrifice," you declared solemnly.

Before he could answer, you were already out the door.

Levi looked after you, absently bringing a hand up to his cheek.

"Tch. Always so dramatic," he grumbled to himself, but his gaze was soft.

why did the sacred anons (squid octo and jelly) all do a picrew face reveal did i miss something

also since you cried us a river about not getting piss requests🙄 i think the three that probably have a thing for peepee are definitely achilles silvan and ajax

silvan on the worship aspec like “wowow thank you” achilles bc he likes getting treated like dirt and ajax 100% loves getting peed on🙏 (i myself am not into piss but i think it’s a really pathetic kink to have so it’s often cool to imagine making fun of someone COUGH COUGH COUGH ajax COUGH SNEEZE COUGH for having one :]

-🪢

im gonna draw them with their boys.

if it goes well maybe I'll open commissions or offer it to people who buy a coffee on kofi or smthn we'll see.

cw;; piss kink

you're just forgetting noemie!!! noemie definitely also feels honor to be peed on.

you're right about achilles i think he greatly enjoys it because its humiliating and probably also hurts like hell if he has any little booboos.

i think ajax probably doesn't even realize he's got a piss kink until during a bdsm session you just piss on him to humiliate him further. and then he's like oh. please please please please do that everytime. so then you get to mock him while you rub your dick on his face.

[getvalentined]

Finally updated my directory with the links to bsky and cara, as well as links to my screenshot and gif tags for easier access (for me, mostly) and the Strifentine tag because it belongs with my top ships.

I keep wondering if I should put a little list of my NOTPs and disliked characters up there too, but ehhh. I have one on my website, and the fact that I dislike a ship or a character doesn't mean I'm gonna talk shit or anything. I don't like Ang*al and still dedicated almost 2k words to creating closure for the character at the end of Smoke and Mirrors, I don't like Lucrecia and I still go to bat for her pretty regularly—these are good characters, I just don't personally like them, and don't like how the fandom treats them. Ships are a little more touchy, since people can be really bad at tagging them, but I can just scroll on by and not engage in conversation about them for the most part.

More personal random update nonsense under the cut.

I'm actually feeling really down lately, for a handful of reasons. Some of it is the weather and air quality recently (it's so hot I want to throw up, there's been smoke in the air so I can't breathe, etc.), but some of it is more...mental and emotional, I guess.

I am so artistically burnt out I kinda want to die (I have no plans to make this happen, don't worry), but I'll deal with it. I've been like this since Turtle's health scare a few months back, when I got less than ten hours of sleep in the span of a week, and then proceeded to get less than five hours a night for the two weeks following, so it's no shock I'm still a mess. It doesn't seem like it's going anywhere any time soon, which sucks because I still owe people commissions from fundraising for her treatment. I may end up just...saving up to refund people.

The issue is that I feel like I can't draw unless I'm working on commissions, but when I try to work on commissions I literally burst into tears and can't do anything. It's a really fucked up cycle where I end up just paralyzed and on the verge of throwing up every time I even think about drawing, which is super hard on me as an artist. I feel like a failure, I feel like I'm letting everyone down, I feel like I'm ruining everyone's opinions of me forever. It's a really shitty feeling.

I'll figure something out. I'm an adult, that's what I have to do.

Speaking of people with ruined opinions of me, I think I'm going to start muting or unfollowing people who reblog/interact a lot with BB$C. I know she has a lot of friends, and maybe she's gotten better, but she still has me blocked so I'm not exactly hopeful. This is the woman who (apparently) told her friends that I abused and lied about her because one of my friends reported and called her out for tracing, and when she faced no consequences I made a vague sad thread on the general topic of popularity rendering unethical behavior acceptable in modern fandom. I only found out that she was seemingly telling people I abused her because one of her friends made a public comment on the twits about me being abusive—on a QRT of my thread detailing how I'd spent the previous year being abused by my now-ex. Very cool for me, the knowledge that some people saw that I'd been abused and went "oh she deserves it though" doesn't haunt me to this day or anything.

It's been a couple years since it all went down, but I just...I dunno, I feel like it's hard to genuinely improve as a person without even trying to make amends with the person she said those things about? But who knows. I'd be down to talk if she ever wanted to, but she hasn't yet, and I don't assume she will. I'm one of like four people on the planet who cares anyway, so it is what it is.

Summer is a rough time of year for me in general, so I'm struggling a lot recently with feeling like I deserve to even talk to other people at all. Constantly seeing the name of someone who went out of her way to make sure that I'd never feel welcome in a community I've been part of for a quarter century pop up on my dash all the time is not conducive to fighting that feeling.

Not to pity party over here, but I do get it. My older sister, my ex, BB$C—they're charming and creative and supportive, the people that they like generally don't get to see how they can be to the people that they don't. In the rare cases that they do see it, they change the narrative to make that person into something irredeemable, downplaying their own actions (if they admit to them at all) while exaggerating the actions of the person they dislike. These people have friends that genuinely love them, so of course they're going to believe their friend over some sad-sack stranger on a dying blogging platform. It's no fault to these people that they believe their friends.

(Just to clarify, I'm not saying that my ex tried to kill me the way my older sister did, or that BB$C was abusive in the way my ex was; these are diminishing levels of trauma. She and I were never friends, our sole one-on-one interaction was me approaching her on a zine project to make sure she was comfortable with me having created a piece of spot art that seemed to have ripped off her page art; I'd done it without realizing the concept had already been used elsewhere in the project, and didn't want her to assume I was copying her without credit. The irony of this is not lost on me.)

It would just be nice to feel like the truth means anything. I'm an abusive liar because I apparently said that this woman traced a bunch of her work; not only did I not report her, but it also isn't a lie. There are overlays with over a half-dozen screenshots and official renders to prove it. But even when her friends are shown those overlays, which I have done, it doesn't matter. The goal posts move, and suddenly I'm abusive just for caring that she traced at all. Allegedly lying is what made me abusive, but somehow I'm still abusive even if I didn't lie—and she's still the nicest person in the world, even though she did.

I do hope she's better. I hope her friends have helped her to become the kind of person who looks back at what she did with guilt and shame, and that she uses those feelings to improve. But seeing her name pop up over and over, sometimes from people who know what she did and still decided to re-follow her years later anyway, is a little too much for me to handle right now.

Nightwing finds out Oracle is human quick fic

Nightwing sat on the ledge of a building, waiting patiently as ordered.

“You know who I wish I could call to help me.” Nightwing thought out loud. “…Batgirl. She’d already be five steps ahead of me. Somehow she’d be in the truck already.”

“That’s…” There was a crack in Oracle’s voice. The thing he once thought was a robot, just a computer, suddenly became human. “That’s too bad. She’s out of commission. Unfortunately, you’re stuck with me.”

“Are you okay?” He asked.

There was silence. Barbara stared at her screen. Her breath felt shaky. It’s been a few months since her and Dick had really spoken to each other. To keep her sanity, she pretended he didn’t think about her much anymore. Didn’t miss her. Maybe even hated her. It was easier that way.

“The arrival time of the box truck is only five minutes according to cctv in the area.” She finally said. “Make sure you have the tracker ready.”

Nightwing started preparing the tracker, pressing a few buttons and twisting it once to ready it for when he needed to place it. He then smirked after he thought for a moment.

“You jealous?” He thought he’d play a small game with Oracle. Test the computer a bit.

Barbara knotted her eyebrows. “I don’t get jealous. Focus on your mission.”

“Do you feel anything?” Dick said, still thinking he was talking to an AI.

Barbara clutched her mouse and bit her tongue before saying, “I wish I could.”

Nightwing saw the truck in the distance. “Care to elaborate on that?”

“No, not really.”

“Someone not program you with emotions?”

Barbara rolled her eyes and sat back in her chair. “Have you ever been in pain for so long that you start to feel nothing?”

Nightwing grew quiet. “Maybe.”

“That’s why.”

Nightwing hopped onto the roof of the truck. “So you are human?”

Barbara smiled a little. “Yeah, I think I am.”

“Sorry, I really thought, ya know…you were a computer or something.” He set the tracker on the top of the truck. It latched on and started blinking.

The tracker showed up on a map on one of her screens. “I got the signal. So you think I’m like Siri?” She replied.

“Yeah, or Alexa. Which ever you prefer.” Nightwing takes a small laser from her belt and draws a circle on the truck’s roof. The metal melts and a perfect hole is created for him to jump into. “You’re just so fast with finding things.”

“I made sure to invest in really good computers.” Barbara said. “Make sure to check the unlabeled boxes.”

He looks around and spots a few with no labels. “How do I know you’re really a real person and not some AI who thinks they’re real?”

Barbara leaned toward and propped her elbows on her desk. “You’re just gonna have to trust me, Dick Grayson.”

The hairs on his neck pricked up at the sound of his name. Every time Oracle said his name it gave him the heeby jeebies. She does it often too like she’s bragging.

“So how old are you then?” Dick started rummaging through unlabeled boxes. “25? 85? 7 years old?”

“I’m not telling you personal information about myself. That’s the whole point of having a secret identity.”

“Okay, hypocrite. I know that because that’s why I have a secret identity and yet you know everything about me so really it’s only fair you tell me something about you.” He moved a box to the side to look inside another one.

“Unfortunately for you, that isn’t how our relationship is supposed to work.” Barbara said. “It works better if you don’t know me.” She crossed her arms close to her body. Really, it was better this way.

“Bummer.” Dick said, “I’m sure I’ll figure out something about you soon. I’m quite the detective, you know.”

“Okay, sure.” She tried not to sound too dismissive. Detective work wasn’t Dick’s strength, but he was better than most.

“You likeeee chocolate ice cream, wear socks to bed, anddddd like scary movies.”

Barbara swallowed a laugh. “No, no, and no.”

Dick smiled. “Now I know three things about you. You don’t like chocolate ice cream, you don’t like wearing socks to bed, and you don’t like scary movies. See, this’ll be breeze for me.”

Barbara couldn’t help, but smile. She missed this. She covered her face with her hands. What has she gotten herself into now?

“Found it!” Dick exclaimed, holding a metal capsule. “Now what?”

Barbara quickly looked up at the computer screen and looked at the map. “Um, get out of there now.”

Dick felt the truck slow to a stop. “Oh, poop.”

Are you still going to draw mpreg Garroth since he won the poll?

Yep!!

I just tend to take a while to do reqs. I’m an incredibly lazy person.

If someone paid me, maybe I’d be quicker (/j), which is actually like a genuine thing, I am gonna put a lot of focus on getting commissions done at a reasonable pace, but with requests I kinda… do it at my own pace.

I will always have my reqs open, and if I say I’ll do something, I will usually do it (sometimes I’ll forget, or like… just not post it because I’m an idiot, but I will intend to do it), so don’t ever worry about that.

You’ll be getting a preggerz garroth soon, I swear that to you right now

Lady D Sinister Laugh

My Card where you can find my socials, where to buy my merch, and commission information, and places to support me like ko-fi  https://blackmoonrose13.carrd.co/ Speed paint: https://youtube.com/shorts/zrAfsmuiU9I It's No secret I love the classic anime snooty laugh...love it so much I can actually do it...can anime please just bring this back again?! So I due to other reasons, I thought about drawing more characters doing this and for some reason maybe because I wanted to draw Lady Dimitrescu again, I decided to draw her doing this laugh...because let's be honest if this was an anime she would do that laugh either at Heisenberg for reasons, or because she wants to scare Ethan Winters...I am gonna be honest hearing her laugh somewhere in her very echo chamber like home would be kinda frightening. Someone find out if the Voice Actress has done that laugh, if not someone get her to! Just ah would love to hear it...anyway here is Lady Dimitrescu doing a laugh she so rightfully would do. All hail the queen For Sale here: https://CatLunisciaCreations.threadless.com/designs/lady-dimitrescu-sinister-laugh https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/162239455?asc=u https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/blackmoonrose13/lady-dimitrescu-sinister-laugh/ https://www.teepublic.com/poster-and-art/61804205-lady-dimitrescu-sinister-laugh

[misc-obeyme]

CC I'M SO EXCITED, I FINALLY GOT ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO COMMISSION THINGS FROM PEOPLE (it's like three different people AJDJWJF)

but the prices are good, two of the people needed it for emergency money so it was a good push to bite the bullet and message them. I'm so happy, I'm gonna have art of me and Mammon (and one is gonna be a sketch page of me, mammon, and a friend who also likes obey me). Also i lost my drawing streak, but I just drew a bunch of random poses today for fun, so it makes up lmaoo.

anyway I am here to ramble about the job my mc/I would have in the Devildom! definitely got roped into working at the bunny cafe for one (1) shift with Mammon (the daily chat is what gave me this idea).

Not sure how the cafe works, but in the anime, Beel is working the bar lolol. So I always imagined it as a bar with some food, and you could request certain servers by paying extra, and obviously give them carrots or tips. Like a mix between a maid cafe and a club I suppose is what I'm thinking?? (...Hooters? I've never been)

anyway I totally got coerced bullied into working a shift (I am always caving when it comes to Mammon </3). And my anxiety is terrible, I CANNOT talk to people (it's a wonder how I'm a manager), so I'd definitely stick to bussing tables and helping run super big orders with one of the guys. Maybe even have Beel teach me to make some drinks, because that seems really fun. Basically completely avoiding any kind of one on one service.

And I think there's been chats or devilgrams about mc gaining popularity and having a fan club, so imagine all these patrons requesting me, and the owner has to be like "unfortunately - no." And then someone is like, "I'll pay an extra $100 just to have her" and that's when the owner decides to ask if I'd be willing. Because it doesn't hurt to ask, right?

And I'm like, "Ha! I'd do it for $250", and like, I say it as a joke, but imagine Mammon overhears everything. He'd drag me to the table and say my price, and to everyone's surprise, the demon agrees to pay. Now everyone is like 👁️👁️ interesting.

and now I'm suddenly serving a random demon, and I'm nervous as hell (HA), and I'd honestly spill their drink or something on them. The bill comes, come to find they tipped way over 20%, and wrote a note about hoping to have me again. Now I've singlehandedly paid back a big chunk of Mammon's debt.

now THAT would change my mind real quick. I would do anything for money, I'm so easily convinced 💀 like imagine how much cash I could make in one shift. Anxiety who ??

It ends up becoming a part time gig, and I become the owner's favorite. I learn the bar for fun, and can be requested as a server for a big fee. I'd like to imagine Mammon works extra hard to earn the owner's favor and begs to work the same shifts as me (little does he know I request to work with him bc he makes me feel safe, especially if people get way too drunk)

I've literally brainstormed about this so much, and I've still got more ideas rattling in my brain, SORRY IT GOT SO LONG AAA

- ✨ anon

WOOO!! Congrats, ✨ anon! You are braver than I lol! I've been trying to work up the courage for months, but I keep talking myself out of it. Mostly because I want to commission art of my OCs and I feel absolutely ridiculous asking someone to please spend hours drawing this silly guy from my head lol. It's a me problem, I'll get over it one day. Anyway, I'm sure your commissions will turn out amazing! I hope you enjoy them!

OMG what but I love this idea!! Listen, I have the social anxiety, too (it's so bad wow), so I get it. But I looove that you've got things that help you work this job despite that! Mammon and Beel to count on when you need support and of course the motivation of just... making money!

And it's so sweet that you're making the money to help cover Mammon's debts. And I love that both of you are like... requesting to work together and the other person is unaware of it. That's adorable!

I'm always going to recommend writing your ideas down! It doesn't have to be story-style, sometimes just getting them out of your head in some form really makes a big difference! Especially if it's something you've never told anyone or written down before. Forcing yourself to articulate ideas in a way that would make sense to someone else (even if no one else ever sees it) really helps to make ideas more solid. Then you can expound on them even more! It's a never ending cycle for me lol.

Anyway, I love all of this, I think it's fantastic.

For my part, I'd absolutely be bunny-ing it up at the bar with Beel. I like the idea of him making Devildom drinks and MC making human world ones. The demons that are willing to pay top dollar for MC to wait on them are also willing to pay top dollar for MC's authentic human world drinks! Now you're really rolling in the Grimm!

i wish there was more knowledge on ME/CFS bc as someone with chronic fatigue syndrome it gets. so tiring. seeing posts abt like. yknow revolutionary anarchist etc stuff. and one of the things is like "you gotta go out there and build community"

brother. listen to me. i am housebound almost entirely, partially due to us only having 1 car and 0 money, but also bc every time i leave the house, even if only for a few minutes, i am completely exhausted. the meds that used to help me are no longer helping me almost at all. i am lucky if i have the energy to write 100 words on my fandom fanfics each day. drawing is nearly impossible. everything exhausts me and it's only getting worse. i'm so tired all the time and it feels like every day i'm getting slowly closer to dying. i can LITERALLY feel myself getting sicker, getting worse. NOTHING is helping and nobody knows why i'm so sick. on top of that i have anemia and severe vitamin deficiencies. all of this has gone on for years since childhood and was neglected by my parents as well until i moved in with my grandparents. even now, i probably won't be able to afford treatment if they figure out how to treat what the fuck is wrong with me because i'm gonna lose my health insurance this year and i doubt medicare/medicaid (my only option as i do not have a job and possibly will never have one if my health continues on this path) will pay for the no-doubt expensive shit i'll need.

so like. i need the community to come to ME. i cannot go to community outreach things unless i want to be in physical agony for the next several days or weeks. going to a community day or something puts me out of commission for at least 3 days. that means i have almost 0 energy to do jack shit for 3 days except MAYBE scroll thru tumblr and twitter and sometimes talk on discord. i might be able to write if i'm lucky.

but nobody wants to do that. nobody wants to help me or the people like me because it's "too hard" for them and "if you really cared you'd come to us" as if that's a choice we make.

honestly i think we should start telling them that. if you claim to be a revolutionary leftist, and you aren't willing to engage in creating community and helping people who literally cannot reciprocate that with you due to their health? i don't think you actually care about us. because if you REALLY cared you'd come to us.

Can you stop being such a cunt, tranny. "I have a job and barely any free time anymore. who are you to tell me what to do. go learn some manners before you say anything under my art again" You sell prints, when you didn't pay the artist for the characters or their time, and want to talk, bitch. maybe stop selling other people's characters, and acting like a beggar, constantly giving out your inprnt store. Tell you what, since you value your time so much I value Capcom's time, and am reporting your inprnt account. Shut the fuck up, you stupid, degenerate loser. Your art sucks.

wow, it's my first time being called a slur! isnt that a big accomplishment. thanks for wasting your time coming all the way to here from twitter just to hide behind anon and say vile shit to me. why didnt you just comment on my tweet? you couldve saved a couple of minutes doing that. or is someone too scared to say shit to me directly to my face?

as for the inprnt thing, i never begged anyone to buy my stuff. i literally started selling my prints because people have been asking it for years, and ive stated MULTIPLE TIMES that no one should feel obligated to buy anything from me because its not my main income and its just a side extra thing i do. PEOPLE WANTED PRINTS OF MY ART, THEY ASKED FOR IT FOR LITERAL YEARS, AND IM JUST GIVING THEM WHAT THEY WANT. if youve ever seen me beg people to buy my art please let me know because i sure as fuck dont remember doing it. the only reason why i post my inprnt stuff so often is because the site has sitewide sales often, and if i have a way to let people pay less for my art if they want to im going to give them exactly that.

i know selling stuff with other people's IPs isnt exactly legal, its a big grey area that has no 100% rights or wrongs. but im not actively harming anyone just because i made art of a character and sold it online. the big companies arent losing any money because of me, you can always take the money youre paying for my prints and just buy official merch. i dont care. im going to repeat myself again and tell you that im only selling prints FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WANT IT AND CAN AFFORD IT. IF YOU DONT WANT IT THEN ITS NOT FOR YOU.

if you think selling fanart is so wrong, think back to all the times youve seen a voice actor for a show or a video game commissioning artists to draw the characters they voice. according to your logic, even though theyve spend their own time and effort on a crucial part of the character, theyre still not allowed to commission stuff of that character because they dont own the rights to them. does that mean youre going to report them too? are you gonna go to capcom and tell them "HEY MR. NICK COMMISSIONED SOMEONE TO DRAW A BUNCH OF RESIDENT EVIL CHARACTERS FOR HIS STREAMS AND HE DIDNT PAY BACK THE ENTIRE RE TEAM FOR THEIR TIME AND EFFORT MAKING THE GAME. THE ONLY THING HE DID IS VOICE LEON YOU GUYS NEED TO STOP HIM"? of course not, you'll look like a fucking idiot. i might not own the characters either, but ive spent my own time and the drawing skills ive developed over the past decade to draw those prints. i own the rights to my drawings and i should be allowed to do anything i want with them as long as im not harming anyone.

clearly you cant stand me or anything i do but youre still following me for some reason. please for the love of god block me right now, leave me alone and live your own life. you'll be happier that way. and also stop being transphobic its literally 2023.

EVERYONE!

Number one....pls someone ask about my oc's my boreddd mind is dying of boredom 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏

The rest is super long soo

I take art requests, for free, absolutely no payment needed and I usually and almost always go with my art style when drawing as well, FYI 😎

(It being free might change and instead of requests ill make it into actual commissions....I might start charging once I get a whole thing set up...and if i get a lot of requests I'd love to eaen a little extra for something I enjoy! But also you guys can enjoy art requests for free at the moment being!)

What I will draw for you guys:

•oc's

•small comic strips (I think that's what it's called??) (like 9 to 10 panels and maybe more if needed)

•characters from shows (in my art style)

What I won't/can't:

•Animals (maybe if they aren't too hard, I will exspecily if your oc or a character has a pet i will try really hard to make it look right)

•realism (don't have much practice with that and prefer representational art more anyway)

•NSFW things (you all should know what kind of things I mean....im not talking about blood and gore btw💀🙏🙏 and don't ever ask because im never gonna draw it :> )

•full backgrounds (it's not my Strongsuit and i promise it will look like a 2 year old made it if i did)

When I do draw things please expect to see, some shading to be wrong sometimes, clothes mabey not folding 100% accurately....and faces looking a little weird sometimes as well as hands. I'm no professional, but I enjoy art and am learning still because we all start somewhere. The things I listed above are definitely some of my struggles and things I'm working on 💪💪💪

But please feel free to give me an art request whenever. It could take afew hours to a afew weeks, depending on how many requests I get and how busy I am.

And if it is something like an oc, all I ask is I get some shape or form of a reference. Also, I can do full body, half, and just head, whatever you might prefer.

⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️

Sooo that you guys don't have to ask anymore here is this! :))

ALSOOO IMPORTANT GUYS!

My DM'S are currently open! Alwaysss! So feel free to DM me whenever! Whether it be about art requests, rambling about your oc's or random stuff or just to vent I'm here for you all...why? Well because I want to be there for everyone and want everyone to feel welcome. Never worry about bothering me and just talk about anything! (No weird stuff tho...like NSFW things...ya know)💜💜

(Also DNI if:

•You are racist

•pedophile

•proshiper

•all and all straight up disgusting!

•if you are just a person who loves hating then go bye bye and don't come back here >:((

•if you are weirded out or hate on people in LGBTQIA+ community then bye this blog is for everyone so bye BYEEEEE!!!

I honestly don't have many boundaries but the basic one....but I guess as long as you keep it sfw and no weird sussy stuff....no slurs...no hate on others for who they are then you are fine! I might add more if I feel uncomfortable with something along the way if I do find out more stuff to add to my boundaries but for now it's pretty simple!

Have an amazing day/night everyone! Love you all! 💜💜💜

are you on art fight btw

I'm not on artfight, but my art trades / commissions r always typically open

I actually meant to do art fight this year, but a little ago, I had to do emergency commissions for medication for my axolotl, and I knew with last year being my busiest/ most stressful school year and I was getting like 2 hours of sleep to do classwork, I had to wait until the summer to start working on ALL those commissions. That sucked.

I'm hoping this year will be easier and also that no problem is gonna come outta nowhere that keeps me from doing the next artfight...

I've told some people I wanted to do it this year but felt bad since my comms could've gotten in the way of me making stuff for other people, so I guessed I'd be better off not doing it yet. Not to mention my characters don't really have good references right now (but I'm gonna work on them after these last 1-2 art trade parts I wanna do)

I've had so many art trades because I decided to do that instead of art fight (I tell someone I know who was doing it that I would either like to make fanart or that I wanted to do artfight but couldn't, and ask if they would like to art trade instead)

Also I kinda am confused with the website, but that's not the main problem that kept me from doing it this year

I would like to mention though, I have to make a new commission sheet, and also I cannot really set dates for trade parts or commissions. I also had to practice driving to get my license this summer so that I can avoid the 5-6 hours I spent on the bus for all of school so far 💔. I keep them on a list so I know I have to do them, but I do not have as much time as I'd love to for art, and get burn out after maybe a good few bigger pieces.

Sorry for the long post. TLDR No I am not in artfight this year because of emergency commissions, driving practice, and lack of up to date references, but my art trades and commissions are almost always open and I've been doing art trades in place of art fight. I hope to do artfight next year and any other year that something doesn't get in the way of my time to draw

A little update before I proceed to babble: The vibes are no longer vibing. A couple days ago I had just completely packed everything away (besides the essentials) when I got the news that my new place won't be ready till (maybe) April. There's no problem with staying a while longer at my current place but it's a majorly infuriating inconvenience as you can imagine. Why say it was "move-in ready" when it's not? Anyway, I haven't slacked on practising drawing our fangy boy. The sketches are coming out better than I thought they ever would (though I'm sure if I tried to draw a different face it would look like shit XD).

Babble: Seeing your Lucifer reblogs makes my heart ache, in a good(?) way. Does it sound stupid to say, though, that no matter how much I love Lucifer, I don't think I can watch it again? I can watch clips and stuff but I can't exactly explain the feeling I get when I think of rewatching it, especially concerning season 6. I guess I want to memorialize those feelings I got watching S6 when it came out, to not... overwrite them by watching it again I suppose. I dunno, it's a bit hard to articulate any better than that. It sounds dumb, even to me but at the same time, it makes sense? I really don't know lol. I don't feel this way with any other show I've watched, and I think it has something to do with how beautifully it ended (I cannot hear MCR without thinking about the end). They wrapped it up with such care and with so much thought behind everything, it's almost like they set out to completely ruin me for any other show. Lucifer set the bar too high, and someone superglued it in place.

Aw man, just when you've got your ducks in a row the pond's dried up. Well, at least April isn't that far away. Is there any place you can voice your complaints to? Sometimes it helps to give the wheels a push. I haven't been drawing much, but I did set aside some monies to commission one of my fav artists for some bg art which i am pleased by immensely. I'm gonna get it printed and place it on my shelf.

I've really been enjoying the resurgence of Lucifer love, so I figured I would do my part and reblog some sets. Plus i have like 7k likes and need to get those in a queue dear god. I was bracing myself when you mentioned s6! It seems all I see these days is negatively to it was a breath of fresh air to read your feelings about it. I'm fairly neutral when it comes to the final season. There were things that worked for me and things that didn't, but in the end, Chloe and Lucifer are together forever and that's what I wanted. The absolutely ridiculous nonsense on twitter gives me an apoplexy.

Anyways, I'm glad you sent an ask in, I have been thinking of you lately! Hopefully things will work out with the new place soon (fingers crossed) and always feel free to pop in and chat about life, bg, or lucifer! I'm all pointy ears, my love.

[daftbitch]

Hi! NSA here! Sorry for the radio silence, I've been going through it in the mental health department. Plus work and all. I haven’t been able to write at all even though I want to. I hope you’ve been well despite, you know (gestures to the general state of the world)

Omg though pinning a post to call out to me u///u I’m flattered!

You wanted to hear my thoughts about Doe's Nekomamushi fic, and I will share them now! I did read it, but I was so FED that I wanted to devote the proper energy to address what I all liked about it, and I was far too tired to do that this past few weeks. And just kind of… not in the mood to engage with something positive when my brain is in the pits. But now I am here.

A while ago, someone sent Doe an ask referring to the drabbles I sent you and saying she had competition–I wanted to scream! Don’t compare us! T_T She’s got far more experience under her belt! The Nekomamushi commission is proof enough of that. Just incredible work.

Here’s my thoughts:

The intro is masterfully set up. Just paragraph after paragraph of vivid imagery of the location and the sensations of running through a tangled wood and the thrill of it all. Like 14 paragraphs before we even see Nekomamushi, and none of it is boring. I’m like hitting my head on a wall from a writer’s perspective because it’s so well done! The sun setting and the following hush are great transitions to the last part of the chase and really set the mood. I especially love when Sterling wonders to herself if Zunesha sleeps!! It’s such a small but poetic detail that really helps ground her in the world she lives in despite that world being so whimsical.

"A daring glance back was too tempting to resist." I love this sentence and how it transitions to the reveal, I love the emphasis on hunting grounds. But I think my favorite part of maybe the whole fic is the end of the paragraph: 

“So in tune with nature here, it made her shudder. It almost flowed around him, with the ease at which he caught up.”

It’s sooo good! I can picture it perfectly and I just love the concept; such a master of his environment that it feels like the forest moves around him rather than the opposite. Coolest shit ever and something I can easily visualize.

And man, Doe is like a master of mood. After the buildup of the chase and the reveal, literally the moment his paw comes down and pins Sterling I’m on the edge of my seat with anticipation. And from the very start the dialogue is fucking hot:

"Well, little kitten, I've got you-gara right where I want you…there is no place in this jungle where I couldn't find you…"

DAMN I mean talk about starting off strong! And their back-and-forth is so cute and hot.

"Adrenaline and heat, all swirling together. I would chase that scent anywhere, kitten. I'd find you anywhere, until I could have you."

OTL I CANNOT, and immediately followed by "I'll always be yours."  !?!? Im GONNA SCREAM!!

��...causing the beast to rumble in approval. That sound was felt all the way to her core.”

Doe hits all of the monsterfucker motifs: the growling of a beast being felt physically, the heat, the strength, the size difference, for some examples. She has an excellent understanding of the draw of the whole thing and knows how to execute those aspects very well.

Also. ALSO.

"They say you shouldn't tempt the beast." - "I think the beast is tempting me. Don't make me wait."

Fucking SUPERB I love the dialogue so much.

"Eyes on me, kitten."

The dominance and being called “kitten” grjgjdfskhfsj. I know I write the same thing but that’s because IT RULES (no pun intended) and Doe does an amazing job at it

The buildup to the actual penetration, the threat of the edging and the dirty talk is drawn out perfectly and is literally so hot it makes me dizzy. And it all builds up to the tipping point/high point/climax (literaty-term-wise) that is making Sterling beg for it, before you even get to the main event. 

“Nekomamushi's Sulong form is always a bit rougher with her than his daytime self. The beast took what it wanted, and thought of her wellbeing later on once the throes of heat had cooled. But Sterling liked the thrill of being at the moon beast's mercy, a cunt to be used to breed and nothing more.”

Again with Doe showing 100% understanding of what the appeal of monsterfucking is. We love to see it. And then you actually have the main event and it’s 6 full sizzling spicy mastercrafted paragraphs before the first orgasm, like. I don’t know how she does it! Then we get 3 more before Nekomamushi’s?? 

Then a perfect resolution and closing line, which is always something I struggle with. The whole thing is Literally 1000/10 work.

Man, I aspire to write stuff like this. I really look up to Doe as a writer.

That’s about all of my thoughts on that. T_T I love fics I love OCs and self inserts and reader inserts I love writing (I hate writing) I love writing. How have you been, KP? I hope things are okay for you.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU FOR SO LONG!!! I WOULD WAIT A MILLION YEARS FOR YOU TO COME BACK TO ME!!! I’M SO HAPPY YOU SAW MY PINNED POST I THINK OF YOU ON THE DAILY!!!

I’m not gonna lie when I saw this at work I literally started jumping up and down and screaming with joy silently, of course, but I did jump up and down. I want you to take your time and reply to me whenever you feel OK there’s no time limit and I’m always gonna be here. Also, it’s OK if you don’t wanna come off anon that’s completely your choice. And I don’t fault you for that at all.

After I read through your message all the way I literally called Doe and I read her this she was literally so happy She said it made her week and she’s never had such an analytical review of one of her works before she knows the time and energy. It must’ve taken for you to write all of this and source actual lines from her story

She said she greatly appreciate you for doing that very much and if you ever want to go over to her blog and just be on anon to just go ahead and do that if you want.

I reread that story a couple of times a week because it’s a literally, my favorite, and that one line with Sterling just being a Cunt to breed literally always sends a tingle through me. It’s literally my favorite line of the entire story. 

My friend I greatly appreciate you so much and you don’t know how much joy that you bring me every time you message me I always get really giddy and giggle a lot that’s how much I look forward to you. 

I’m always here if you wanna talk to me if you even want to make a side blog and keep your self anonymous that way and go into my DM’s. If you just want to talk I’m totally down with that too. It’s whatever you’re comfortable with or we can continue communicating this way it’s literally whatever.

And I have so much more I want to tell you and I look forward to hearing from you once again, it brightens up my entire day. You have no idea !!!

I am doing pretty good. I’m getting over a back injury and Covid. I go see the Barbie movie on Saturday. I’m very excited for that. Hopefully you can see it too if you want. 

 I have so much to tell you and I would like to discuss a bunch of horny stuff with you, but just general stuff in general 

I hope this finds you well, my friend 

[gatorcatally]

I’m gonna rant about Genshin rq.

So I’ve been playing nonstop for a week or two now and I want to advance the story. It was going pretty well, I thought. I was in Liyue, I finished act 2 for the second archon quest, I pulled Thoma which I was super excited about.

Until I hit Level 25, where you need to finish the ascension quest to move onto the next level. All of my characters are level 40, Aether is 41 and I’ve got a lot of characters at level 20 needing things from islands I don’t have access to yet, ex: Gorou. Even their weapons are all as high as they can be.

Spoiler for the ascension quest if you don’t wanna know what you’re fighting I guess. The recommended elements are hydro, pyro, anemo, and cryo, which I can do (Barbara, Amber, Aether, Kaeya). What they don’t tell you is that there’s a hypostasis inside, and you need a character who can infuse a claymore, (ex: Diluc) which I discovered after googling how to beat the damn thing. The only character that wields one that I have is Beidou. The hypostasis you fight is electro and beidou uses electro so her infused swings are useless.

Then I went online to see if I could bring a friend with me to ascension challenge (obviously not I was just hoping that I wouldn’t have to wait forever to get to the next part in the story) and someone said that if you can’t do it alone you really aren’t ready to face the next area. And that kind of made me upset. I’m not like furious or anything and it was Reddit so I should’ve expected shitty takes.

I’m just bothered because I am ready for the next area. I’m flying through all the enemies and missions in Dragonspine and Liyue, with only minor hiccups because I have to wait to get characters (ex Geovishap needs a shield character. I pulled Thoma so I just need to level him up I think lmk if I’m wrong). The only issue I have is I unfortunately only have a character that wields the same type of element as the boss.

It’s just annoying because I’ve been doing nothing but baby commissions and requests for a day or two (I’m just impatient), just to earn the tiniest amounts of stardust to MAYBE draw a character that would be useful. I’m over 2000 XP over what I would need to get to level 26 and the next story part requires me to be at level 26! I’m so close it’s just circumstances and it’s driving me up the wall.

Lmk if you guys have had similar things happen and we can vent together lol.
