#I did a watercolor paint base and then used colored pencils and wow did it make the art pop

Finished those Fearne Sketches

[terminally-karkalicious]

allow me to rant about the only thing that has been in my brain for the past two months and that is doll customizing babeyyyyy

i know there’s a 90% chance that you wont give a Shit about any of this but here we go anyways

SO first you gotta choose a doll. preferably one with a high range of motion to avoid creating new joints or having annoying limitations like not having elbow joints for some fucking reason. what the fuck mattel. give monster high dolls back their ball jointed shoulders and elbow joints. smh

the most common dolls ive seen used as bases are monster high and ever after high. most customs ive seen are highly stylized so the stylized face molds work well for those types of dolls but dolls like barbies are good for when you want a more realistic face-ups.

once you’ve got your base picked out you gotta wipe that bitch’s face off with like. acetone or nail polish remover or something strong like that. you can also use acetone to shrink doll heads which is cool as hell imo. n e way once the face is wiped you gotta chop off the hair and remove the hair plugs from the inside. ive seen this done several ways but the easiest and most common way ive seen is to dunk the head into boiling water for ~30 seconds until it gets squishy and malleable. once you’ve got the head back, you can use pliers (i think tweezers would work in a pinch) to pull out the hair plugs which are kinda icky because theyre covered in glue and other gross shit. ew

now you must decapitate the doll. dunk em back in the boiling water to soften them back up then just tug the head off. the neck pegs look funky and are usually a different color than the body so thats cool ig

once the head’s off, you can start the face-up which is basically just giving the doll a new face using stuff like watercolor pencils, acrylic paint, gouache, and a whole lot of other stuff. hell ive seen people use person makeup on these dolls.

next,,,,, hair. there’s about twenty million ways to do hair from gluing yarn wefts to sewing to rerooting with purchased nylon doll hair or yarn wefts but i’m gonna talk about the most common one ive seen which is rerooting and gluing.

before you can reroot, you need doll hair. which, as i mentioned, can be bought at stores like the doll planet or made at home with yarn in literally any color. have fun with it! make rainbow hair or something idk

to make homemade wefts, you take some acrylic yarn, cut it twice as long as you want the hair to be (keep in mind you can cut and style the hair once it’s been rerooted), fold them in half, and tie it to something sturdy like a wire coat hanger for the next step.

once you’ve got your yarn tied to your hanger, use a pet brush and brush the yarn until it’s wispy and looks like hair. then take a straightening iron and iron the weft flat. then remove from the hanger and boom. hair wefts. ta-da

to reroot the wefts onto the head, use a rerooting tool (which can be as simple as a needle with the eye cut at angle) (just google it please i’m shit at descriptions)) to poke small sections of the hair into the head. you can use the pre-existing rooting holes for your own reroot as they’re usually pretty reliable. to reroot, take a small length of you doll hair (about 10-15 strands), loop it in half, and put the middle of the loop into the reroot tool. poke the end of the tool with the hair on it into the pre-existing hole and remove the tool. the hair *should* stay in and fill up that plug!! also remember to plug thickly at the hairline and part of the hair where it's most noticeable. it doesnt matter as much in the center of the head as that’s not usually visible on the doll. once you’ve rerooted, squeeze in strong glue through the neck hole and squish around the head to make sure it covers all the plugs and secures them in place. then pour hot water onto the head to make the hair lay flat for styling later.

also, you can reroot yarn directly into the head to make thicker, more textured hairstyles. and since the yarn is thicker, you dont need to glue the inside of the head for the hair to stay in place!!

if youre not doing body modifications (which are also cool as hell) then it’s time for clothes but clothes are boring and i like body mods more so i’m gonna rant about them instead

the material ive seen most doll artists use is apoxie sculpt, which is like play doh on steroids. it comes in two parts which you gotta mix together for some reason. why dont they sell it pre-mixed. what was the reason. also once it’s dry it’s super super strong and you can sand it, drill into it, paint it, and all kinds of stuff. very nice and i want some for myself.

you can use hand saws and drills and shit to whack off doll limbs to make stuff like digitigrade legs or new joints. also dont be afraid to use other mismatching doll parts when customizing like heads and bodies and forearms and hands and shit. it literally does not matter if youre gonna recolor the doll anyways so have fun with it. make frankenstein’s doll if youre feeling spicy

accessories my beloved. stuff like tiny beads and clay baubles and shit will literally transform the entire doll plus they’re adorable and multi-purpose

i suppose i must talk about clothes now. ah well. you can find great clothing patterns if youre new to customizing on other customizer’s etsy shops and probably google although those will probably be lower quality than paid pattern pieces. and keep in mind that if it exists as clothing irl, you can likely make it doll-sized. there are literally no limits to your clothing options as long as you can execute your idea.

the once all your components have been made, you can assemble the doll again!! and finally see what all the parts look like together!! very cool 10/10 stars.

ight that wraps up my doll rant. i could really go into more detail on certain parts but thats a whole other rant for a whole other day smh. sorry for fucking flooding your inbox ender ahaha……………. you asked for this

little did you know that dolls have been one of my favorite things since like ever. if i can read a 25 chapter long fanfic i can read this B)

mattel definitely fucked up by completely ruining MH doll designs and just stopping EAH, alot of their profits most likely came from people who collect and customize dolls and by changing MH doll designs/Stopping EAH dolls they 1. most likely lost a small (or big if we're not jus talking people who customize dolls) part of their profit and 2. made it harder for doll customizers to make dolls/get commissions out rather quickly because they probably have to waste more time making joints or learning how to make joints.

EAH/MH dolls (specifically MH dolls) had AMAZING MODELS because there was so much variety with height, face shapes, etc (my favorite molds had to be the short/tall dolls and the cat molds because of the tails) and doll customizers really went all out with enhancing a molds unique features. The only "downside" abt MH dolls is that they (or atleast most)(from what i remember)) had slimmer faces but wider eyes while EAH dolls have wider faces with slimmer smaller which left a canvas for the face and not the eyes (and vice versa for MH dolls)

I've never seen any videos where a barbie is customized (maybe because i absolutely despised barbies at the time) so I'll definitely have to check those out but they seem to be good for realistic makeovers. I've seen like like semi realistic makeovers for EAH/MH dolls that were pretty good too tho (pretty sure mostly EAH dolls since yk MH dolls were used for creature makeovers while most EAH dolls weren't)

yeah i was always amazed by the head shrinking with acetone. honestly i still am?? idunno i have no idea how that chemical bullshit works. Ive seen a few of uh makeovers that just pain over the face (in multiple layers ofcourse) but that's usually when they're painting the entire body a different colour (again usually when they're turning a doll into a funky little baby man). I've also seen a few that just chop the hair off and take out the hair plugs yk without uuh like softening the head or just go straight for the hair plugs after taking off the head (i used to do that it was funny to me??). i always really liked when they used watercolour pencils or just colour pencils in general to draw/sketch on the face cause like wow ur drawing on ur doll without ruining it?? kinda epic maybe even poggers and pogchamp?? oh god my brain is failing wjshsmsj.

Watching them putting the hair back on the doll was, other than the face stuff, was the BEST part for me. Favorite type of hair was iuuuuuh was either thick yarn or brushed out yarn. Literally worship the people that would reroot the hair, theyre the most patience people on this earth!! it's literally insane but i guess that's what happens when you've been doing that for years? you guess kinda get used to it. when they put glue into the head does it just become stiff?? like it's just a clump of dried glue or does it like..hollow out again??

dude you literally cannot convince me most of the supplies used for doll makeovers. APOXIE CLAY LOOKS SO FECKING GOOD. its edible and i will die on that hill. The body mods are literally so amazing!!!!! it's so impressive how theyre able to imagine certain features THEN LIKE ACTUALLY MAKE IT LOOK ACCURATE TO WHAT THEY WANTED TO LOOK LIKE AFTER LIKE ON TRY (or many yk trial and error is very necessary for..everything). Absolutely loved when doll customizers would saw off a dolls legs and use different ones or just completely get rid of the torso to use a different one. it's like uuh that one big guy that's mismatched and sewn together. very cool. The accessories are so fun!! just small little details you seen really need but can add because it's your feckin doll!! I used to be absolutely obsessed over the doll clothes i would find on etsy, so much so that i started sewing shitty shirts and dresses for my uh "customized" dolls (they were absolute HORRORS idk WHY my mom let me feck up my dolls like that).

Thank you for this!! i haven't been able to talk about any of my interests for a while and this just really made me happy!!

Question fer u my fellow MH/EAH enthusiast: what was your favorite MH/EAH movie/episode and doll series. Mine was The fusion dolls (MH obvi) and that MH movie "Haunted" cause we got to know more about Spectra :D

4, 18, 36, 39, 40 for art asks! ☺️

I’ve,,,already lost the post,,,,time to look for it ;-; Thank you so much though, Dim! It’s always a pleasure :3

4. how long have you been drawing?

Um. Wow. It’s been a while now. This summer marked the 6th year! I started drawing during the summer of ‘14...I was at a SAT camp and the workshop battle was wrapping up/ending (for you new kids who only started ToG on Webtoons, I’m referring to the ancient time before Webtoons came out...I know webtoons first posted them June 2014 :P) but I was thinking about Beta, who had been introduced that year, and meshing him with Gaara, creating Seth. And from Koon, I created Lucian. But with these characters...came the need to visualize them. So I picked up my pencil and started drawing. My early drafts were horrible though ha ha.

18. what's your favorite character to draw?

My son, Tyson Enf ;-; I just think his design is neat and simple...I also love drawing Waldus and baby Darryn ;-;. None of this will make sense to you, Dim, sorry. I don’t really have a favorite character that isn’t mine to draw? Like...I’ll draw Korra and Sabo a lot, but I don’t know if I could pick them as favorites...drawing ToG stuff is actually a very new development! I’ve tried drawing Baam once and I cried, so I gave up. Only this year did I attempt again....SIU’s art style is really hard for me ;-;

36. do you do other forms of art?

Uh. What,,,does this mean... I....do lots of art? Lolol. I do digital art when it doesn’t kill me. I love doing traditional--marker, colorful pens, sharpie, colored pencils, ink/calligraphy brushes, watercolor paint, acrylic paint, that other paint idk what it’s called. I love cross stitching and making things out of paper, and making models out of scraps. I enjoy making stickers and working with clay and making magnets! I dabble in a lot of things okay ;-;

39. base lineart color?

Uh, I’m simple and use black :P

40. favorite color scheme to use?

I don’t think I have one?

I’ve been working on some different styles of self-portraits while creating a portfolio to apply to grad school with. 

Its been a mix of, wow I want to try this technique and wow, I have a real abstract idea as to how to represent myself. 

Its really hard to write an artist statement when everything is so all over the place so here is a bit of an explanation of each:

1. This is a grid drawn portrait with colored pencils. i hadn’t done one since high school and I was going to assign one to my students. I wanted to go through the process myself and figured I would be the best model to start. i liked being able to play around with all the colors that go into creating my very pale completion.

2. This is an oil painting I call “Legacy”. I was listening to Hamilton one day and the line about legacies being a garden we never get to see grow really stuck with me. I think a lot about impact as a teacher and what seeds I am growing. I wanted to show myself as the gardens of the people who have helped shape me. 

3. A bit ago I saw new pictures of Jupiter and I could not believe the amazing color swirls that were there. I wanted to try and capture it. This is a drawing based off those pictures and the idea of being more than we are. We all have storms inside us, and they can be really beautiful. Its done with watercolor markers and paint markers. 

4.This is an oil painting I call, “And the Night Must End”. I’m laying exhausted on my bed (my sheets are in fact gray) and the light is slowly starting to re-enter and fill my body, pushing out the night. 

5. Free-hand color pencil drawing my a drunken selfie I took last summer with very humid hair.

6. A pretty large pencil drawing. i wanted to see how well I could shade something in and so I traced the outline of my face/features and did the rest by looking at a picture. My students were worried that if they did something similar it would be cheating. Being able to shade well and properly is vital to drawing realistically. If they are too worried about the drawing being “right” they won’t be able to work on the skill of shading.

Week 1

January 19th. 2017 3:30pm-6:30pm-- 3 hours--Total Hours: 3

Today was my first day at my internship and so far I’ve learned a lot. I helped assist three classes; on class was Miss. Cassie’s class, which has two girls. So this was a small class, but it allows you to work with the kids one on one more. We taught them an art history lesson and talked about analogous colors, what they are. Then as a project, we drew patterns that covered the whole page and we and in the patterns we put different analogous colors. We gave the girls different acrylic paints to use, so they can learn and mix colors.

In Mr. Travis’s class we taught 5 little kids, whose ages were around 4-6. The topic of the class was movements, the first thing we did was trace movements of animals, to see that animals move differently than people. after that we had an art history lesson on Keith Haring and how his images of people are moving. So the kids did a project based on Keith Haring’s people. Some chose their own colors, some made it the same as Keith Haring’s work.

Then the last class that day was Mr. Travis’s S.T.E.A.M. class, which consisted of 3 boys between 7 and 9. The lesson was to create single cell organisms, which are amoebas, then we gave them personalities. To me they ended up looking like potatoes.

My first day was really great and getting used to the new environment is different, I felt like I did as a lot of questions, but that’s just because I wanted to make sure I did everything right!

January 20th. 2017 3pm-6:30pm--3.5hours--Total Hours: 6.5

Today I helped work a workshop of 16 kids, which was based on the new movie Sing. A workshop is almost the same as running a class, except with a lot more kids of all ages, which was really fun. Mr. Travis, Miss Monica and I taught this workshop. The first thing I had to do was help prep for the workshop. My duty was to cut out 60 stars for the projects. Cassie taught me a trick for cutting multiple pages at a time, she told me to staple the four pages together, so that all the stars I cut out were the same.Cutting the paper was killer on my hands because I am used to cutting with exacto knives and not scissors. Another job that I had was as the children walked in I had to put an Abrakadoodle artist apron on each one and tie it, and tell them to sit wherever they wanted. We let the kids do free draw before we start the project. 

The project was based on the new movie sing, which involves a group of animals that enter a singing competition, hosted by a koala hoping to save his theater. The other teachers and I have not seen the movie, but every child there had seen it. We had and example of the project on the easel, and we did a quick demo, because the kids were really excited to start the project. They colored in their characters, and painted the stage on canvas panel, and then they glued on all their characters and then they painted their stars and glued them on last. This was a really fun project, and teaching the kids how to make grey with a black colored pencil, because they didn’t have a grey one was really fun too. The fact that I can help kids learn different or new art techniques, is really exciting. When the kids were finished and left, it was clean up time. To clean up we had to take the white paper off the table, which made clean up really easy. The white paper serves as doodle paper for everyone and paper to prevent the tables from getting messy. After that we had to was the glue brushes ( they said that painting the glue on with a paint brush is the easiest way for the kids to glue things). Then we had to put new paper on the tables ( which I noticed that each teacher puts the paper on the table differently).  

I enjoyed helping out this workshop and I can’t wait to do another!

January 25th. 2017 12pm-4pm--4hours--Total Hours: 10.5

Today was my first off site class. This means we are hired by different schools and places to teach art classes. Our site for Wednesdays is at Temple Sinai. I love teaching here! I had 3 classes, 2 year olds class with Mr. Travis, 3 year olds class with Mr. Travis, and 4 year old class with Miss Gabbie. The lesson that was taught to the kids, was about boats. Each time we taught the lesson we added more for the certain age groups, such as the 2′s made one boat, the 3′s made 3 boats and the 4′s made 5 or more boats, that way it was the same lesson, yet changed for different age groups. For me it was great to learn the different ways that the 2 teachers that I work with do the projects differently. Here at Abrakadoodle, the lessons are already made, but you have to do the prep work and modify the project based on the age group that you are working with. It was also great to learn how to prep materials, and how to save supplies by doing the demo on the same paper by turning it around. I also loved how the teachers have to bring their own materials, and how they clean their materials so they can be used again, since materials are not cheap. 

In the 2′s class we let them play while we set up since, at the age of 2, they can get super antsy. Then while we did the demo for all the classes, we asked the kids silly questions, like “ Do boats go in the sky?”, and the kids go “NO!!! in the water!!”, which made them laugh, and made me laugh as well. But keeps them engaged in the project. Learning the different ways that Mr. Travis and Miss. Gabbie do this is great techniques, that I can take with me , when I teach my own classes in the future.

The projects used watercolor, crayons glue and different cut outs of paper. I had to cut out curves which served as waves for the 3 year old class. Mr. Travis had these great scissors that cut through 5 sheets of watercolor paper like nothing, i wish I knew about these scissors when prepping the stars for the workshop, it makes cutting take half the time.

In Miss Gabbie and Mr. Travis class we used white crayons on the water color paper to make secret swirls( I came up with that term) so then when you put the blue watercolor on the paper the swirls come up like magic, which made the kids eyes go wide and say, “ Wow it is magical, how is it magical?”  and it makes me excited to explain how the wax of white crayon doesn’t mix with the watercolor. Just the fact that I can use my knowledge of art to help kids learn, which is why I want to be an art teacher.

So far I love working at temple sinai, it is a great school, and I am excited to go back!

January 27th. 2017 3pm-9:30pm--6.5hours--Total Hours: 17

Today I worked at the Buckley Country Day School which is an independent, coeducational day school providing elementary and middle education to 330 students in grades toddler through eight in Roslyn, New York. When I got to the school it looked like Hogwarts. The inside was dark like an old castle, yet the classroom was super modern, with smartboards and all. Travis and I had 2 students that signed up for the class, and we drew turtles by tracing the shell and putting 3 shells on top of each other, we took white crayons to make patterns on the shells, and painted with watercolors so the white would appear. I felt this class went really fast but then I went back to the studio to do a paper mache snowman. Miss Monica and I led this workshop, and there were only 3 kids, Sam, Covina and Henrietta. We got them pizza and they ate first then we got messy and took news paper crumpled it up into balls and taped it, we made 3 different sizes. After that we dipped white construction paper into the glue and wrapped it around the newspaper. Then while it dried we drew pictures of penguins, but Henrietta and Sam wanted to make more snowmen, so they made 3 each. It is a great feeling to see kids really enjoying the art they made. This was a long workshop, but in the end the kids made amazing snowmen and I was happy to see how happy they were. Then Monica and me finally got to eat our pizza at the end, after the workshop was over, and after we cleaned up the studio.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, I’m ugly crying on the inside right now. I’m really so glad you liked the art, seriously this means a lot to me TYSM <3

I like how Hisoka turned out too :D I have a hard time looking at him though because WOW that’s way too much trash for once piece of paper

Be glad that I sent you the sassy Saiko, because I also drew a crying Saiko calling for Maman. I decided not to be a troll for once though ^^

I couldn’t do justice to OG Musical Maria though. She’s gorgeous…

That picture of Roy will be my legacy.

(as for the tiny dab, that is also Saiko in case the pic was too small for you to tell XD funny thing is that I wasn’t even intending to have that slip in when I took the picture. I drew a tiny, mouth-and-nose-less ‘I am not impressed’ Urie face next to it too but guess that didn’t make it in haha LOL

I'm actually sorta obsessed with drawing tiny, dabbing figures right now because I just discovered an easy way to draw dabs and…well. It’s fun?)

AWW tysm! Tbh though I get the struggle. I hated all paints for the longest time because I also had no idea how to use brushes and control the amount of water I used and ended up with shapeless blobs or super runny pics (also I’ve never actually learned how to paint or draw…a couple of short lessons when I was really little, a month(?) of lessons around last year or the year before, that’s pretty much it. So idk how to do things really lol). But I sorta-recently got obsessed with watercolor paintings (SO PRETTY) and that’s why I started ‘practicing’ (AKA watching/reading a bunch of tutorials and trying my best to remember the few things I actually learned XD). I still can’t draw stuff just with watercolors though, I need to do a light pencil sketch and then color with paint.

OK that sounds so cool but problem: My phone is a super old flip phone that I’ve had since I was eight(?), so mobile games are a no XD and my parents probably wouldn’t buy me anything that costs money (they let me play simple free RP games and dating games on the internet since those are usually fairly innocent (I mean, it’s plot/character-based stuff, almost like a manga) but not anything too 'big’ you know? If I was old enough to buy games like that with my own money I don’t think they’d care tho, as long as I didn’t get obsessed with games or anything.)

Also just realized that I’m stupid and apparently forgot that I don’t have Steam. I was going to install it but can I ask you exactly what it is/how it works, first? I’m just kinda worried about randomly installing this since I don’t quite get it yet ^^;; (sorry I can be really, really stupid when it comes to stuff like this)

THAT’S SO CUTE. Let me recommend you a game too- a free RPG/Dating game called Ascension by ImpQueen! No download, you just go to ImpQueen and play it. There are three(?) chapters. The first chapter might not be that interesting compared to other games, but the game and the story keep getting more complex as you go on :D you also get new dateable characters every chapter and the MC, Aida, is AWESOME. Also, in chapter two and three you can actually customize the main cast’s appearances, like you’d do in a dress-up game! Another cool thing is that you get different 'personality points' depending on the things you say/do, and the amount of points you have for a certain personality can change the outcomes of certain situations.

It’s also really fun because other than the romance, the plot and Aida’s journey is super interesting too.

Do you know I’ve been reading some Ishida tweets lately and look at this (yes these are all real)

Fan: Excuse me, is it ok if I ask what major you chose at university?

Ishida: I have studied worthless knowledge in University.

Fan: Please take good care of yourself and eat well! (I think that’s what they said? It was in Japanese so)

Ishida: I ate some tomatoes!

Fan: How do you draw Arima, sensei? It’s so hard to draw him ;-;

Ishida: Sadistic & Massive. I keep that in my mind.

Fan: I love you please marry me

Ishida: Sure! When is convenient for you?

Fan: Be sure to rest when you need to, sensei…

Ishida: I don’t wanna rest

Fan: HOW DID AMON’S EYEBROWS GET LIKE THAT PLEASE I MUST KNOW SENSEI

Ishida: It’s natural, you know.

Fan with a picture of a cartoon skeleton for their profile pic: Will we ever learn what happened to Hide, sensei? Also, thank you for the sequel :) I love TG

Ishida: Well, I’m not sure…by the way, you are so skinny. Thank you!

Also, dude reads Shoujo manga. He tortures us with Touken, Kanae, Tsukiyama/Kaneki, Saiko/Urie…and then he goes and posts fanart he drew of a Shoujo manga he was reading and says that he’s sad it’s over omg

0////0

…

I’d probably never want to leave that flask HOW COULD A TINY INSIGNIFICANT HUMAN DEFEAT ME SO EASILY NOOO

*sigh* I didn’t raise you to be like this…

(I just got the funniest/weirdest idea though: So Evans is like Luna’s mom in this relationship, Riza is Roy’s mom. Imagine what would happen when Roy/Luna got to the 'meeting the parents’ stage in their relationship)

Mei’s version of subtle-

Mei: Mr. Scar, Evans thinks you have pretty eyes.

Scar: 

Scar: What

(basically catastrophe. And I would never have actually said that…Luna probably told Mei to say that I said something nice about him and that’s what the kid came up with OTL)

Well, he became a criminal in Civil War so not a big surprise really ;-;

For a second I thought that pic was you

Wow, that’s great! Bet it looks amazing on the queen <3333

Funny thing is I thought I liked physical contact (like cuddling, hugging, hand-holding) but turns out that’s not the case XD I get super awkward when anyone who’s not my mom, dad, or my little sister/younger cousin touches me. Tbh the only person I feel comfortable with cuddling anytime, anywhere is my little sister because she’s still smol LOL

It’s definitely weird when people who aren’t that close with you try to hug you though. The only thing that can make it worse is if they gush about what a good, sweet child you are while doing it XD

(btw, I sent you a message about the TG Re Volume 12 omake; did it get eaten?)

((EDIT AFTER NEW CHAP OF TG: WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUU NO URIE NO N O)) Feel free to send more art anytime! I’ll always be glad to see it ^^

Is he really that bad? I mean, I’ve seen some memes, but didn’t think he was that trashy XD

Oh wow, thank you for that :P Who knows, maybe I would’ve broken my computer screen, because end the suffering already.

Dabbing Saiko, best Saiko. I assumed it was her because of the hair, but wasn’t 100% sure. Isn’t that Urie’s default face, tho. I mean, when is that man impressed? He does show emotion when he’s  trying to comfort someone, but that doesn’t happen very often.  *stares at that paragraph* *dabs aggressively* 

Ah, that’s what makes it even more impressive! I mean, we had art in elementary school, but it was mostly the ‘learn stuff yourself’ kind of art. Needles to say, I didn’t learn a lot. But watercolours really are a nice way of painting, since they can have really vibrant colours, yet be serene at the same time. Most people I know who draw, watercolour or not, use sketches and references, so I don’t see anything wrong with that ^^ Just take your time to learn what you want ^^

Oh, I see! So, free, computer games for you… Well, right now, CP is the only one I can think of, but I’ll discover more in the future and share them with you when I do ^^ The only paid games I play are on my phone, since I’m too shy to ask my parents to but me otome games… I have 0 problems playing them on my own, but not a lot of people know that I play them. 

Right, steam.  It’s a gaming platform. Technically, it’s an app for the computer on which you can download games that are available in the steam store. Some are free, some are paid. 

This is how the page looks. The little green button in the upper left corner is to download the app itself, and you’ll also need to create an account.  You’ll need to give an email, but it’s only for account verification and to send you bills if you decide to buy anything. However, if you don’t buy anything, the email will mostly be useless after the verification. I mean, I don’t remember getting a spam email from them at all.  After that, just go to the search bar, type Cinderella Phenomenon. And press play the game! It should automatically download the game to the steam app and you’re good to play ^^  No worries about asking questions! It’s actually admirable how you’re so careful around the internet ^^

Oh, I’ve actually played that before! I could never finish chapter 3, though… For some reason, it keeps glitching at one scene making me unable to continue further =3= It was quite fun to play! I just don’t remember most of it anymore, since it’s been a while since i’ve played ^^;;;

Ishida summarised my high school experience so far in a single tweet, only it’s about University XD

Wow. That’s so mean of him XD Seriously Ishida, why you gotta torture us so much??? (I just noticed my computer stopped auto-correcting Ishida, I think it finally learned I wanted to type it) 

Muhahahahaha I’ve contained the legendary dwarf!!! Now she won’t be able to convince a whole nation to commit collective suicide because their leader is a naive idiot!!

The two of you just talk about how randomly childish the two of us can get at times XD I think you’d get along pretty well with Riza, though. I mean, she’s a nice person, who knows what it’s like to be scared, so she’d be fine with taking lead of the conversation. 

Scar isn’t sure if it’s Mei’s idea of a prank or not, but he’d be slightly disappointed if it was cause he kindawantedEvanstothinkhiseyesarenice but nope he’s in denial.

From that day on, Luna learns that if she wants to get the two awkward dorks together, she’ll have to take things into her own hands. Probably goes something like this:

Luna: Evans, are you free at 5pm this Friday? Evans: Yeah, why? Luna: Scar, are you free at 5pm this Friday? Scar: Aha Luna: Great, because I’m not! Have fun you two!

Aah, no, my hair i shorter than that ^^;;; Also, I look younger than I am OTL

I think it’s more of the ‘I like physical contact if I know the person and am close enough to them’ thingy. I mean, I have a few acquaintances who love hugs and I always shrink away from them, but with close friends, U’m sometimes the one who starts hugs. But you might also dislike contact in general, which is also fine, everyone has their own preferences ^^

I did, but I only noticed after I answered your message OTL Well, that’s certainly an interesting ship… Now I slightly ship it…
