(Click for better quality, because this was a PAIN to get on Tumblr T-T )
Tried drawing Uncle Sly for the AU again :)
First drawing is mostly canon accurate (mix between his description and his picture), and the second exists, because I somehow thought Uncle Sly had a trench coat, but that was literally never mentioned in the books, pretty sure. But he owns one, in this AU.
And I also wanted to draw one with colour, so there's three
(Sylvester is kinda a banging name though tbh. Shout out to him)

Etho "I'm not a protector, I'm a runner" Slab
We shall ignore him hiding Tango in Limited Life during the yellow hunt. We shall also ignore him refusing to attack or rat out Grian and Cleo in Secret Life during the boogeyman apocalypse.
As for Last Life? Bdubs? To paraphrase Cleo: "Why can't you two just be normal about each other!?"
Inspired by THIS post, transcript and non-compressed images under the cut
NOTE: Apologies for the quality and lack of audio, I only started animating a few months ago and have no idea how to make a non-gif animation... I converted from a .gif to a .mp4 because large .gifs are horrible at loading,
Transcript: (To the best of my abilities)
Etho’s Wild Life Episode 1 @*21:31
Bdubs: OO-OOOOOOOOOoohhhHHH BOY! HERE WE Go!
Etho: No-ooooooOh~
Bdubs: We’RE DEAD!
(Tango laughs)
Jimmy: I’m coming up to save ya-
Tango: (High pitched like an owl hoot) Phew! 
Etho: Save me Jimmy~
Bdubs: Oh thank you Jimmy…
Bdubs: HE’S LOOKIN’ AT ME!! 
(Tango: Jump! Big, big-)
(Jimmy: I can’t get up th- the water fountain…)
(Tango: -big, BIG!)
Bdubs: (exhales shakily) Ha- OhHHHhhh…!
(Bdubs laughs nervously)
Etho: OHHHHH! NOW HE’S LOOKIN’ AT MEeeeE!!! NOOOO!!!
(Bdubs laughs normally)
Here are some of my favorite frames that haven't been whacked by the compression hammer:

4t2 - Apricity Niches
The file is compressed and contains: → 9 meshes, being 2 master and 7 slaves; → there are 68 rcs; → one preview; → a collection file; → a preview of the collection; → a text document informing the number of polygons; → a text document informing about master and slave meshes. • In the merged file, only the rcs are merged. They are found in: Surfaces - Shelves and Surfaces - Miscellaneous.
Obs.1: Contains slots. When accessing the objects in buy mode, you will see the description of each onde that informs the number of slots there are. Obs.2: For mounting (bringing each niche closer together so they are connected next to each other as shown in the image) you need to use the "SetQuarterTilePlacement on" cheat. Credits: Meshes & Textures by @gua-cc The original file is on the Patreon
Download on my Blog
Update - 17/01/2025
When I went to use them to clone, I discovered that the slots weren't working properly, I hadn't made the necessary edits and from what I realized I hadn't tested them properly, I apologize for that, so after the discovery, everything was corrected and I took the opportunity to add more slots. All meshes and the collection file were corrected and I changed the collection image, so the preview was also changed. A "Fixed" link will be available for those who have already downloaded before (copy or cut and paste to replace the files) and for those who download after the update, they can download via the normal link, as it has also been updated.

food delivery (grab) driver! kinich x reader
a/n: this is a stupid ramble thing to save my fried brain from exams aaauuuuueueaaagghhh this is also not proofread + im basing this off a delivery service in my country called grab
Tumblr media
the bright light from your tv screen had been your only source of warmth these past hours. you were lazing around in your dark room, scrolling on your phone for any type of entertainment other than the gameshow presented on the tv. pending assignments long gone, you'd rather just worry about them tomorrow morning.
you didn't realize how late it exactly was, (it was 3 am) but something you did know was that you were hungry. not having any energy to really look for any open shops, you opted for online delivery. doubting that you'd really have a chance for finding food so late in the night, it didn't hurt to try.
opening the app, you scrolled for any shop available. you found one, it served [desired food here] at a decent price point. it even surprised you that they were still serving food at this late of an hour. nonetheless, you weren't really complaining. choosing your desired meals, you pressed 'order' and patiently waited for your food.
after 35 minutes or so a notification popped up on your screen that your food was now there, right infront of your home. quickly fixing yourself, you immediately head out.
the dark yet alluring night sky hid majority of the other houses. yet you could clearly see a distinct man and the motorcycle, holding what seems to be your food. the man looks around, then he spots you. you walked towards him with groggy eyes due to the prolonged light exposure from your electronics.
despite the dimness of night, the streetlights provided some light. from which you were finally able to see who was delivering your food.
the man had black hair, quite lucious too. he wore a bandana of the company's color: green. and despite the usual get-up of delivery drivers, he had a compression (is that what you call it?) shirt on with loose sage sweatpants. even though it was simply the weak streetlight shining below the both of you, you were immediately encapsulated by his image. what the fuck your delivery driver had you entranced ????
his voice called out, breaking you from your thoughts. "This is yours, I presume? Its [place price here]." you immediately scurried to get and give your money, thinking that you've already embarrassed yourself by staring.
the fact that there was barely any light was irritating. you couldn't find the needed coins to finally pay your driver who's been observing you for the past minute or so. with even more pressure, you hurried to find it and alas, you did! finally being able to pay him, you hand him your money while he hands you your food.
"took a bit there." the man commented. you wanted to simply melt to the floor from embarassment, but you first needed to apologize for his time. the man looked at you with a stoic expression before saying that it was just a 'joke'. he had a weird sense of humore it seemed.
the delivery driver finally set off, and you were now headed back to your place. while walking, you checked the paper bag and noticed some writing on it: "xx-xxx-xxx - ur delivery driver, kinich. call me."

Out of the blue
König x reader (y/n).
Your best friend convinced you to subscribe on a dating app, you don't have expectations but you're keeping an open mind, on the other hand, König is pretty much in the same situation, Horangi and other guys insisted to him, none of you were expecting a wonderful night.
Warning: age gap, reader is in mid 20's. Grammatical and spelling errors. I think there's no mention of a specific gender but if I wrote some I apologize. Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters nor do I claim to own them. I do not own any of the images used nor do I claim to own them.
I hope you can enjoy it, as always perhaps it is not a good story but I'm sure someone out there will love this. 🩷
Tumblr media
You're sitting, scrolling through the phone, your friends are at a party with a rugby team in a discotheque, your best friend has been insisting, calling you and texting you, even making video calls.
- Y/n please! You have to join us! You can't rot at home every Friday night!
- Working 9 to 5 is exhausting, I pass.
- What will you do tonight if you're not going to have a party or something?
Suddenly a new notification popped on your phone «Someone wants to meet you, Match or reject» then a text «Hi, would you like to go to dinner?»
- Y/N?
- Oh, I... I actually will go to dinner with a guy from that app... Remember?
- Y/N, please be careful, if you go... Send me your location and if something goes wrong call me, ok?
- Yes, mom! I love you, bye!
- Bye-bye!
As soon as you hang up the phone, you open the app and give him a «it's a match!» then responded his text «Hi, for sure, at your house or mine or any restaurant?».
Meanwhile König is sitting in the dining room of his apartment, lonely, he doesn't understand why he listened to Horangi and the rest of the guys.
- This is stupid...
He muttered to himself, he's waiting for your reply, you're the only one that he has sent solitude, nobody else. He's regretting his actions but then, you texted him back, after reading your message he wonders what would be the best option. He stood up and went to the fridge, there was only mustard, a tomato and a beer. Checking in the rest of the kitchen, there's nothing else.
It would be good to go to some restaurant but what if you feel afraid of him? He's massive, the scars on his face, his insecurities are eating him alive.
«i hope you don't mind, your profile doesn't have a photo, may I see a pic?»
-Scheisse.
Would be rude if he says no, also would ruin his chance with someone attractive as you. Oh, how much he hates this, why does he have to be so shy?.
«Ja, no problem, give me a minute :)»
«Thanks, take your time <3»
And actually he's taking a lot of time, is just a simple selfie, that's what he has been saying to himself. After 28 photos he's exhausted, tired and desperate, he doesn't know how to pose for a photo, how not to look intimidating, everything is getting worse in his mind, what if you think he's not what you're looking for? He didn't change his gym clothes, he looks like a mess, also, what if you feel afraid of him and just accept to go on this dinner because you're scared to cancel.
- AHHHH! Scheisse! Ok. Fuck off, let's send all of them.
He's afraid of your answer, he threw the phone to the table.
You're starting to worry, what if he's a fake profile? He's taking too long. Almost 40 minutes, you're considering simply not replying anymore when your phone rings.
«Kö: sent 28 new photos 📷»
Oh god, you hope those are not spicy photos or something. You opened the chat, ready to block him if those are hot pics, but no, Holy Jesus Christ, who is this man? He's tall, wearing shorts and a compression shirt, all black, his entire body looks muscular and strong, then his hair, he has a lot of hair for someone of his age, let's admit it, a lot of men start to lose hair after their 30's- 40's, but he looks good, you make a zoom to observe his face cautiously, there's some scars but if you have to be honest, those scars only makes him more attractive, his eyes are tired but blue like the sky, it only gets better and better. Definitely you can't reject him.
At this point, König is biting his nails, he's feeling very anxious, he hears his phone ringing, fuck, fuck, fuck, he's nervous, he could break easily the spine of the enemy, jump from a plane, disassemble a bomb, even fight against a bear, all that without any anxiety, but this, no, he can't.
He took the phone and went to your chat.
«Y/n: Oh god, you're very handsome» «So, where we will go to dinner? ;) »
He can't believe what he's reading, what did you say? He reads it again, no fucking way. Then he sees you're still on the chat waiting for a response.
«We can go to a good restaurant... If you're ok with that. What do you think?»
«Perfect, you can pick the restaurant, send me the location and I'll see you outside! ;D»
«Kö: sent a location 📍» «Ok, I'll see you at 9 Pm, ja?»
«See you! P.S. I'm excited! :D»
He sent the location of a small Italian restaurant close to the city center, which is expensive but he has a hunch about this night and also he doesn't mind spending much money, after all, he has been working hard for it.
You investigate the place, Italian food, your favorite food, the place looks really nice, casual, you like that. You change clothes and get ready, lucky for you, you live not so far from the center, it'll take you 18 minutes to arrive at the restaurant. You're not nervous, you're actually very excited, for the first time in months you're truly excited to have a date, maybe it will be a mess or... Maybe not, who knows? You keep that open mind and that optimism.
König arrived on time. He's checking his phone to see if you texted him while he was on the way, but no. He can't avoid thinking that maybe you will not come or something happened to you, he could be more polite and offered to pick you up at your home and arrive together. He's cursing himself when a sweet voice brings him back to reality.
- Hey
- Oh, hi... I'm König.
- König?
- Ja... (fuck, you maybe think he's giving you a fake name or something, god somebody save him!)
- It's very original, I like it, I'm y/n.
You're too kind, you're even giving him a big smile.
- Nice to meet you, y/n, I like your name too.
- Thank you! So what if we continue this conversation inside?... Let's go, I don't want to be rude but I'm so hungry!
- Sure, let's go, I'm hungry too.
As soon as you sit, there's a connection, you talk a lot, he laughs and laughs, the dinner is delicious, both share their food with each other, drinking beer and enjoying the moment, he talks to you about his job, just a little but you're fascinated by him and everything he's telling you.
(...) «No! I swear! I did a lot of sports and activities when I was a kid!» (...) «Ja! We were Falling and he didn't wake up! The plane was in flames and he was sleeping like a baby!» (...) «No, I was at home while my parents were at parties and doing all that was actually expected from someone of my age!» «Rugby and Hockey, beers and whiskey, those are my favorites!» (...) «Ja! I play that one too, I have a PC and PS and an Xbox» (...)
By the end of the dinner you and König are almost alone in the restaurant, the waitress comes to tell you they will close soon so König asks for the bill, you offer him to pay the half but he insists it's on him.
Once out, you don't want to go home, neither him but he doesn't know where else to go.
- I have an idea. Let's go, I'll take you to a cool bar that I like to visit sometimes.
- If it is a discotheque or something like that I think I prefer to walk around the city if you don't mind Schatz.
- Oh god, no, König, trust me, you will like this place.
Both are walking side to side, still talking and laughing, you don't have a clue about how much he's enjoying this moment, he's so focused on you that he has forgotten about all the people around who occasionally observe both. You're less shy or introverted than him, he likes that, you're funny, smart, pretty and full of stories.
Finally, you stop in front of a white door with a neon sign "The old dog's Bar", you take his hand and get inside.
There are not many people, it is dark, the illumination in the place is not the best, but it brings a good vibe, the people around are more old than young, the bartender is an old man, very charming.
- Hey Frank!
- Y/n! Welcome, would you like something to drink?
- Sure, whiskey for me and my friend, please, i saw tonight is a band playing, are they still here?
- sure, go, take a seat darling, they took a break but they'll be back soon.
You and König are sitting close to the small scenario, still talking, your drinks are on the table already.
- you will love this, I promise!
- How did you find this place?
- I was passing by one day, and Frank was trying to get some clients, I thought he was a very charming man so I decided to give this place a chance and I instantly fell in love.
- You're very interesting, young people like you maybe prefer to be somewhere else with more activity or something, but not you. You're beautiful, funny, you're smart... What else do I have to know about you, Schatz?
You blush and laugh.
- I'm full of surprises as much as you König! Oh, wait, I have to go to the bathroom, keep an eye on my drink please, I'll be back!
Once you're in the bathroom you text your friend to tell her you're having a wonderful night and that he's interesting and attractive. You were walking back to the table when you heard some guys talking.
«What will we do? I don't know, I'm not too good at playing it!!»
You continued walking and finally you sat, König is staring at you, he's lost in his thoughts observing you until the sound of the band in the scenario interrupts.
- Hey, we're back, we want to thank everyone who's here listening to us, thank you so much! We're close to finishing the show but our guitarist had an inconvenience and left, so, is there someone in the crowd who can help us?
You look around and the few people who are there are still sitting, apparently no one knows or maybe they're shy or not sure about standing up and helping the band. You sigh and look at König, he gives you a shy smile but for you that's enough to give you courage, you stand up from your seat.
- I can do it!
- Oh, sure come here, thank you so much for helping us!
You put your phone and some rings on the table and give a sip to your drink, you look at König once again and without thinking too much you squeeze his shoulder and whisper «I'll be back».
The guys from the band ask you some things about if you know some of the songs on their repertoire, fortunately, you know them well.
- (...) what about the solo guitar on 'Free bird'? Would you do it?
- Trust me, you won't regret it! Also I promised my friend a wonderful night, so... Let's do this.
Some songs by Fleetwood Mac, guns and roses, Red hot chili peppers, Toto, eagles, Depeche mode and finally the song you've been waiting for, Free bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd, you're nervous, you don't really know if you will do it. But just a quick look at König is enough for you to give your best.
König never stopped to look at you, he has been staring at you since you stood up on the scenario with that beautiful black Fender squier classic vibe, he's paying attention to the way you play, indeed, you're nervous but he feels somehow very proud, you're giving the best of you.
He doesn't know why, but he feels like he needs to take a photo of you, maybe the light over you gives you an angelical view, or is his point of view, he doesn't know but he needs to show you how you looked after the show.
You're brilliant, you don't understand how your fingers are moving in that velocity, it has been a while since you played guitar, but you're doing it great, your quick looks to the band and the people around tell you that even they are impressed by your skills.
At the end of the show you run to König smiling and still a little bit shocked by what you did a few moments ago.
It was almost 3 am, you've been out all night, you don't even feel tired, either König, he can't stop talking about the way you played guitar, he's charming, he told you he's shy and don't enjoy to be around many people or talk too much but with you he has been really sweet, open and a truly gentleman. He offered to walk with you and take you to your house, he doesn't feel good letting you go alone.
- I would love to repeat this, König you're a gentleman, I've had much fun and the dinner was really delicious!
- Ja, me too, you're amazing, I won't stop saying it, you were brilliant. I took a picture and a video of you playing, I'll send them to you later!
- Thanks, I promise you this is the best night of my life...
- I... I would like to have a second date too.
- For real?
- Ja, I mean if you don't mind that I'm... You know, perhaps too old for you.
- Are you kidding!? König, you don't even look old! You look better than people with the same age as me, you're thousand times more interesting than them and I already said it, I would love to repeat this!
- Gut!, I'll be working a lot this month though, but we can organize another date, check our schedules and all that.
- For sure, whenever you can, I'll be ready! Well... This is where I live.
Both walked to the door of your building, and talked a little bit more, he kissed your hand and then both said goodbye. You were closing the door of your apartment when your phone buzzed, you checked all the notifications, one was from König.
«Kö: Sent a new photo 📷 , sent a new video 📷»
You were looking at them when a new message appeared on the chat.
« I can't wait to see you again, Liebling. Thanks for the most amazing night of my life, sweet dreams Mein Schatz :D»
Needless to say that you jumped and ran through your apartment like a child on Christmas. You and König had more and more dates, eventually a first kiss, a first anniversary, etc.
Who said you can't find true love on dating apps?.

Hi uh,, kumzorg. I watched your 'you're too much' video on youtube, and I think it is really cool. I am really interested on how you did the filters for the backgrounds, as in; what program you used and what filters you applied.
Thanks for your time reading this, bye :D!
ok, first thing i have to admit is im really bad with colors so i rely on effects very often, be it level correction or posterisation or whatever, but i hope my explanation will still be of value to you ^^;
long post ahead
for that video every bg except the first one was taken from google maps, so their quality was always high and crisp, which i DONT like
Tumblr media
for example first one I took from Shinsei Kamattechan MV "Michinaru hou e": (神聖かまってちゃん - 美ちなる方へ (youtube.com), and the compressed quality looked very nice when applied with tons of effects on it (My apologies to Noko for erasing them (m > <)m
So I'll go with example of another picture I already used, and scale it down
Tumblr media
First I correct the levels and contrast so that details that I need pop out more
Tumblr media
Then I use krita feature called "Gradient Map", which has a really nice feature that lets you do dithering with transparency
Tumblr media
I copy the original picture and now for the second one I simply posterise it
Tumblr media
I join the two new ones together, I usually use whatever effect I feel like but I personally really like the one called "Combine Normal Map"
Tumblr media
now i copy the original picture AGAIN, and blur it with different constrast levels this time
Tumblr media
I use Gradient Map on it again, this time with different dithering settings and color
Tumblr media
I combine it with the previous one whily applying effects like Overlay or Burn
Tumblr media
Now i'm mostly done, i scale up this new image slightly so that pixels are blurred, for a more washed out effect (plus some additional effects if your heart feels like it)
Tumblr media
I posterise it once more so that colors bleed together nicely and now im done!
Tumblr media
Just put whatever 2d freak you want over it and what the hell is this now (ಠ_ಠ)
(My first inspiration was from Shizuku VN, it had really cool backgrounds which had dark uneasy atmosphere, so i can kinda understand the comments that said they got a mysterious and liminal feeling from the video lol)

So,, this is my first ever post! I'm usually just a lurker. But the other day I was listening to this playlist and I just kept imagining Cody and the other Clone Troopers singing this around a campfire. The album art for Big Iron is so iconic, so I got inspired to make this! This was my first time drawing a clone trooper so I hope it turned out okay! (idk how shadows work, nor do I understand feet,, and do they really just wear glorified crocs??) I did a quick re-read over the Aurebesh but my apologies if I made any typos. Annddd idk how image compression on here works so I hope it doesn't get too fried,, but I'm trying to post before I chicken out lol

Alright, last update on this whole plant profile pic thing.
And I really do mean it this time because I am just as tired as everybody else.
crippled-peeper said nothing.
Tumblr media
Let me be clear that I did not start this mess.
This all started because an anon accused crippled-peeper of having a profile picture that was ai generated.
evrl0ng supported the accusation's claim with this image:
Tumblr media
Which we had later discovered to be directly from tumblr's website code, whether you find it via an inspect element or just tapping the icon in the mobile app.
An anon sent me a message about this, and I investigated.
I found evidence that supported the claim.
But I wanted to wait for a response from him.
....then rjalker came in and unloaded accusations of ableism and transphobia, which I got notified about.
I had to make another post that had to also disprove those claims, as well as analyzed the image further.
As more and more evidence piled up, it was starting to get less and less likely that he was innocent. Especially with his behavior online. It just made him look so much worse.
We checked the source, we inspected element, we even had to triple check to make sure it wasn't a compressed jpeg.
Nope. It was looking like it was ai.
So if you read this, crippled-peeper, (and it's probably going to be unlikely) just know that I am sorry. I am sorry for all the shit that got thrown in your way, and I deeply apologize for getting your friends involved.
I got more and more mad the more people just believed that this one obviously ai generated pixel potted plant was not, well ai generated.
I felt like I was losing my goddamn mind and I just wanted to prove someone, anyone, that I wasn't losing it. Even though I already did.
I just didn't like people twisting words around. I just didn't like people trying to make shit up. And I cracked under the pressure.
That said...
You could've proved to the anon that the image wasn't ai by actually showing the damn image. I don't care if you were pissed, you had the opportunity to do so and you blew it.
If you think that this moment is going to give me "guilt and anxiety", spoiler alert: it's not.
I am not going to have "guilt and anxiety" over pathetic internet drama that got started by one of your followers.
You wanna know why? Because it's pathetic internet drama.
And you wanna know what else can happen from pathetic internet drama? Character development.
This is pathetic internet drama that I'm going to leave behind, and I'm going to become a better detective by learning from all the mistakes I made.
I want you to grow as a better person as well. My advice? Break yourself from that negative feedback loop.
Case Closed.
--------------
P.S.: Please do not harass crippled-peeper or any of his friends. I already did enough damage.

I had too much fun with this, y'all. I love these silly little androids. This Alice lookalike has a fun little dynamic with machine Connor, in which she irritates him into deviancy. It's honestly a good time. If you're interested in seeing them in action, feel free to check out My Life as Alice Williams on AO3. Apologies if the images are poor quality. Tumblr made me compress.

oh, and i found love where it wasn’t supposed to be, right in front of me.
aonung x fem! sully! reader
this was beyond stupid. stupid! you were supposed to look out for your brothers, and yet- it led you up to this point.
"neteyam hurry up!" you shouted at him, helping rotxo, aonung, and tsireya to pull out some kind of device on payakan's back.
lo'ak was contacting your father, eyes blinking back rapidly as he explained where you all were.
neteyam quickly hands you the rope and your hands acted faster than your mind could as it tied the rope around the said device. "go, go, go!" aonung from beside you ushered neteyam to act.
neteyam grunts in effort with his ilu. it took a few forceful pulls and it pops out, accidentally knocking you and rotxo back onto the water.
you reach the surface.
"sister, go with them, i'll buy us some time." neteyam said, grabbing the tracker and diving into the ocean.
"they're coming! let's go!"
everything happened too fast, tsireya went with lo'ak, rotxo pulled kiri and tuk aside to escape.
you look around frantically until someone taps you on the shoulder, making you turn and see the chief's son.
"come." was the only thing he said and you found yourself following.
you and aonung had started to get along once he apologized for getting in a fight with your brothers. at first, you didn’t like him. as time passed, however, you started to see him for who he was.
not just as the chief's son, but a boy who's willing to do anything for his people, following in his father's footsteps. someone who knows how to act rather than using words to express himself.
you were now both on his ilu, trying to navigate your way back when a sudden machine surprised the two of you. you felt your hands grip tighter at aonung's shoulders but he, thankfully, acted quick as his ilu dived down before the machine's claws reached the two of you.
yet it didn't stop there, it turned then was now hot on your tail, your heart started to spike as you had suddenly forgotten how to control your breathing due to the adrenaline.
shutting your mouth, you started to focus back on your breathing but it was hard as you were being chased. then panic started to flood in you.
what if you were caught? what then? sure, you'd fight, but you've seen their weapons and what they could do, thanks to your father.
and aonung...
you closed your eyes, trying to use the strength you had left to pray to eywa to save you.
eywa, help us. please
you prayed until you found your vision going dark, the last thing you see was aonung's head turning to look at you.
aonung could feel your grip on him loosen, his head turning to face you and he sees you, your eyes closed and your body jolting against him, needing air.
the sight somehow sent a chill to his spine and fear in his mind.
but as he glanced back to see where the machine was, it was still there.
until it wasn't.
aonung's eyes widened as an akula, its mouth wide open, crashed onto the machine head on, biting and shaking here and there.
as much as aonung loved to watch the sky people's machinery get wrecked, his focus shifted over to you. he slung your arm over his shoulder, holding onto you as he found a small shore.
aonung lifts you up, placing you down carefully as he inspected you. once you still weren't responding, aonung felt his heart drop.
aonung acted quickly thanks to his lessons before as a child, he knew how to dealt with situations like these.
aonung parts your lips open before he starts pumping on your chest, hoping it works and that he wasn’t too late.
aonung, pushing his feelings aside, leaned down and gave you air as much as he could before he was back to giving you chest compressions.
he repeats it over and over, until you cough out, eyes widening and blinking rapidly as you cough out the swallowed sea water as you shook your head.
your vision blurred, all you could see was white with shades of teal, your mind flashing images of your family, where they could be and what was possibly happening to them.
"no- no- i have to- where am i?!" you freaked out, heavy tears rolling down your cheeks at the thought of your family being separated from one another as you blinked back, vision slowly clearing.
aonung was taken aback at your reaction, but he understood. so he did what he thought was best when he saw your form shaking in fear and sobs.
"hey, hey, calm down. you're with me, your family's going to be okay." he slowly got close, whispering the words to you over and over as he pulled you to his broad chest, wide arms trapping you, offering warmth that calmed your nerves down.
"stay calm, we'll find them. we have to take care of you first." he spoke, making sure to notice when your sobs had died down and you were only breathing against him.
he moves his hands to your face, pulling you away from his chest to scan over your face.
your eyes were still glossed over and something inside him ached at your expression, almost broken- a lost daughter trying to find her family, trying bring back the peace they temporarily had after moving in with the metkayina.
you stared at each other for what felt like a while as aonung studied you. at that moment, you didn’t feel anything but vulnerable. you were showing your raw self to him. a daughter just wanting to have her family back, to make sure they were okay.
aonung, for the first time, maybe, acted without thought as he pulled you in a tight hug. now, if this was in a normal situation you would've been surprised and may even let out a snarky comment but with the way things were, you just accepted it as you wrapped your arms around him.
in the back of your mind hoped that this meant a little more than just aonung comforting a friend.
but for aonung, he hoped for the same, he wished this action would finally be the bridge into showing you how he truly felt, but if not— that was a problem for another day.
aonung lets you pull away first, knowing that you were now composed. aonung looks down at you again and you were already looking at him. he swore he picked upon the expression of shyness on your face but he hasn't the time to make jokes.
"are you alright now?" he asks, tone of his voice dripping with concern.
"i am, thank you, aonung." you said, sighing.
aonung nods, giving a subtle rub on your bicep with his huge hand as he pulls to stand you up.
"come, let's go find your family."
note: another drabble, this time w aonung and hopefully little works like these are enough to make up for my inactiveness :') i love y'all take care of yourselves <33

anyways until i remember i’d like to paint the image of you working at his agency and deciding to visit the gym and check out the facilities only to find the ✨facilities✨, golden wavy hair, toned abs peekinng through his compression shirt, and realize you are staring right as he makes eyecontact with you and grins like oho i cought u i liddle prey 😏
Lmfaoo imagine having just one or two ol’ interactions with Hawks until one of the days you decide to visit the gym. You notice him doing pull ups & the way his back muscles clench and the way his wings 🪽 tuck behind to ensure his arms are doing most of the work? You can’t help but drool over it like a crazed woman. Then… his eyes look at you, glancing how you are absolutely awe struck by him & he smirks. He knows the control he has over people & you’re definitely one of them. He raises a brow, and you look away, all embarrassed. Before you could walk away, he hums, “I’d at least apologize for interrupting someone’s workout by staring. So? Apologise to me with a coffee, mm?” He’s so smooth ugh 😩

i present the concept that instead of discovering he has a son years after being born, he is informed the night of.
because ~angst~
The depression hes fallen into has sunk deeper and deeper, cal and Lia know hes waiting, they see him looking to the door hoping a a familiar sound of knuckles rapping against its wood will sound across the place. They know hes waiting for her to come back so he can spill his guts empty of all the apologies and guilt rotting away in him.
What an ugly falling out it had been, in a moment of emotion drowning he'd lashed out.
He'd said things crueler than he knew he was capable of.
astonished and ashamed he'd let her leave, only reaching out when he heard the sound of the door shutting behind her. the guilt of that gnawed at him from the inside out, clawing under his ribs begging to be released. but to who? She wasn't there... longer he waited the stronger the feeling got and he tried to drown it, stamp it down with wine and work. Cal and Lia finally would take no more and despite the gentle approach it ended the same. They shouted at him and Rolan bit back... until there was a frantic banging at the tower door.
All three froze, it couldn't be.
It wasn't
Rolan pulled the door open, his sibling by his shadow. Mol all but tumbled in, landing on hands and knees, looking to Rolan.
"SHES HERE AND SHES DYING!"
cold dread finally overtook the beast ripping at his rib cage. he blinked
"what?"
"Dwylla shes here and shes bleeding and they can't get the baby! ITS YOURS! YOU HAVE TO SAVE HER!"
Mol stood , grabbing Rolan by his sleeve and dragging him out into howling wind. sharp rain whips across his face as the city blurs by him until he finds himself in a small place, a small stone room.
Its warm, the candles are bright and the heat of them pushes against his cold wet skin like a weight.
Standing the room, now Mol only gasps and Rolan stops cold in his tracks at the image- of all people Astarion over her chest. Hands folded over her breast while he struggles to count compressions. Halsin's hands hands over her belly, a shaking blade in one hand he cant do it. He cant see through the tears spilling down his face.
Too late.
Rolan marches over, takes the blade from Halsin's shaking hands and pushes him out of the way. For this he felt as though he were outside himself watching his body, press the blade deep. He needs to hurry, shes giving no oxygen to the this baby. One layer two layers... seven and finally he can drop the knife to the side. Steady hands reach in to grasp it, Rolan swallows heavily as he looks down, warm little thing still as can be.
Astarion feels his eyes stinging as he stares, watches Rolans eyes go bright before raising this limp little body close to him and speaking a language Astarion didn't know.
he places his mouth over its mouth and nose, exhaling a spell then pulling back to wait.
by the door Cal and Lia stood froze, with hastily grabbed supplies in their arms. After an atmosphere of ache had begun to compress in Rolans heart, finally a small scream erupted.
That little body angrily flailing tiny balled up fists and shrieking. Rolan gasped stepping back and he pulled the baby close against him, Lia rushing over with a towel to begin cleaning him.
A boy, an absolutely outraged little boy with and unreasonable lung capacity. Cal had found his way to a pitcher and bucket. He readied a tiny little bath as quickly as he could. Lia took the small wailing boy from Rolan who immediately collapsed to the floor, he listened as his siblings hurriedly began to clean and check him over. Though Rolans eyes were locked on Dwyllas limp hand hanging off the edge of the bed.
"Rolan, what have you done? What spell was that?"
He turned to look at Halsin, Halsin who was full with terror and trepidation. Rolan blinked.
"It's no spell, it's a lullaby...of sorts."
As he lay his head back against the cold stone wall, Cal came back kneeling to place the tightly bundled child in Rolan's arms.
"So what will we call my nephew?"
The room was quiet by for the soft of sniffling and rough cloth scrapping across skin while they wiped away tears.
"His name is Rolan."
Mol said from her place standing at Dwyllas bed. She push her arm back over her chest, pulling blankets up to cover the gore of such an unruly birth. She brushed her small hand over Dwyllas face, shutting now dull eyes.
"When she found out, that's the only name she wanted. It's the only one she would have...so...shut up his name is Rolan."

Hazbin Hotel WIP
Made this (intended) for Valentines day, but other works got in the way.
Not sure I will ever get around to finishing it, but didnt have it in my heart to throw it away. So please enjoy this half finished work.
I love Niffty and Angel and hope they get more interactions in season 2 :3
Also, apologies for the low quality in the first image. Please click for better quality. Not sure why tumblr thumbnail compresses the jpegs so bad.

The Many Illustrators of A Tale of Two Cities 9: F. H. Townsend
Tumblr media
(I'm finally back, hooray!)
Apologies for the delay! It has been a very busy July for me, and I fell behind.
We're starting off the return a bit quietly, too, because there actually isn't much specific to say about this set of illustrations from Frederick Henry Townsend - other than the fact that, interestingly, although the edition which contained these illustrations was published in 1902, the signatures on them seem to indicate that they'd been made five years prior in 1897. A whole different century - neat!
And here they are!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It feels so good to finally be back, especially posting this set I've had for a while now - enjoy! (And as a bonus, here's an Etsy listing that shows that (at least one version of) this edition had a beautiful floral art nouveau cover)
& the standard endnote for all posts in this series:
This post is intended to act as the start of a forum on the given illustrator, so if anyone has anything to add - requests to see certain drawings in higher definition (since Tumblr compresses images), corrections to factual errors, sources for better-quality versions of the illustrations, further reading, fun facts, any questions, or just general commentary - simply do so on this post, be it in a comment/tags or the replies!💫

🥀// Me again, sorry! I would like to give a heads up to please don’t send multiple images in one message, it takes too much space (maybe bc I’m doing all this on phone) + I won’t be able to attach an image on my side of my responses due to the image limit!
🥀// The ask box is strictly for questions, I apologize for the inconvenience! Small talk with Compress is fine, but I will not respond to full-blown discussions unless it’s with the other LoV members. If you have any questions regarding this rule, please don’t hesitate to dm me so I could discuss further!
