Adler was about to destroy this copy. Thank god I recovered it before he could have taken this masterpiece away.
This is a special vine compilation created for my beloved mutuals, having their Black Ops OC's, (along with mine.. sniff) doing shenanigans with each other when the canon isn't in the mood to give them pain and suffering. Because I hope it stays that way. Hope you enjoy! ♡
Name of the OC's that have been used in this compilation, under the cut!
(In case any of you have been missed out in this compilation, my deepest apologies. But, next time you can be the lucky one!)
Quote: “I feel you know what it's like to be without happiness, but do you know what it's like to be afraid of it? To see the world as so conniving, you cannot take pleasure in the appearance of something good because you suspect it is only a painted drop behind which other troubles lie.”
Belle (2013)
Quote: "My greatest misfortune would be to marry into a family who would carry me as their shame, as I have been required to carry my own mother - her apparent crime to be born negro, and mine to be the evidence. Since I wish to deny her no more than I wish to deny myself, you will pardon me for wanting a husband who feels forgiveness of my bloodline is both unnecessary and without grace."
Far from the Madding Crowd (2015)
Quote: "It is difficult for a woman to define her feelings in a language chiefly made by men to express theirs.”
Jane Eyre (1996)
Quote: “I love you as my own flesh. I beg of you to marry me. Say "Edward, give me my name." Say "Edward, I will marry you."”
Sense and Sensibility (1995)
Quote: “Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds, or bends with the remover to remove. Oh no! It is an ever fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken.”
Tuck Everlasting (2002)
Quote: “If there's one thing I've learned about people, it's that many will do anything, anything not to die. And they'll do anything to keep from living their life.”
Redeeming Love (2022)
Quote: “You got to have plans, Angel. You got to hope for something more in this world outside of this paradise.”
Becoming Jane (2007)
Quote: “If you wish to practice the art of fiction, to be the equal of a masculine author, experience is vital. Your horizons must be…widened.”
Mansfield Park (1999)
Quote: “Life seems nothing more than a quick succession of busy nothings.”
The Age of Innocence (1993)
Quote: “Newland. You couldn't be happy if it meant being cruel. If we act any other way I'll be making you act against what I love in you most. And I can't go back to that way of thinking. Don't you see? I can't love you unless I give you up.”
I still forgot some so there'll be a third part lol and don't give me crap about thope and lope being here or phick I've shipped them since day one and until recently I didn't ship thope only the last year or so and I've been a lope shipper from day one!!
finally posting the abby text fic y'all asked for ♡︎
abby would totally be the gf who's always looking out for you and helping out and etc. (her love language is acts of service)
content warnings: cursing, mention of throwing up, mention of depression, mention of period (if you wanna imagine a reader who doesn't menstruate, just pretend that one doesn't exist ♡︎), mentions of getting cut (accidental), mentions of blood, jerry is alive in this au, slight nsfw content, minors do not interact
texts with gf!ellie found on my masterlist here
i have a ko-fi if you like my work so much that you feel compelled to tip me ♡︎
author’s notes:
now i want hershey's kisses...
lorde being reader's depression artist may or may not be inspired by real-life events (i mean she is one of several of mine, but listen to "liability" and tell me that's not an elite depression song)
ngl abby’s nickname “babby” was partly inspired by one of my students who loves sesame street but particularly the character abby who’s a fairy but my student is a little tiny child who pronounces her name as “babby” and it makes me almost cry from how cute it is every time she says it
These were meant to be colored but alas. Faulty art supplies. Still like these sketches though! They’re lifted from the OG comic book. The idea was to only use direct poses and scenes from the source material and try to infuse some more productive character design into them.
Focus on status of a given character (and changes in it) and some stronger air of historical reference, kept as far away from my own personal head canons of the characters and their backstories as possible.
Really had fun with these. Great figure practice ✏️
