Sketch dump time! A whole bunch of requests from the crazy ex-bird app
In Order: Maisie, Pam, Colette, Buster, Chester, Chuster ❤️🧡 (and a teeny Gus), Leon and Sandy (Leondy 💚💜), Bull, El Primo, and Mandy!
Extra notes about each sketch:
Maisie:
Her breath attack is a condensed foam material, similar to that of a fire extinguisher. Using a gas similar to a pressurized CO² (based on gas-based fire extinguishers!), she shoots it out at high speeds. These hits can potentially cause frostbite and even severe damage to the body if left unattended. She's quite powerful in this AU due to this ability 👀👀 being able to put out the fires and overpower another dragon's breath? Now THAT'S some queen moves right there! She can also simply spray out the foam substance at short range without that pressurized gas. This helps with more close range fire fighting work.
Her right wing and front leg were undeveloped, a disability she'd had since she hatched. However! With the help of mechanics, she uses these prosthetics to help her fly. Still gotta test out how to draw it to make sense, as well as sort out how it stays in place. I've been using inspiration from Toothless (HTTYD) and his tail that Hiccup made.
Pam:
Pam is a bulkier dragon, very much on the larger side of all of them. I'm at odds with myself to figure out whether ot not she'll have wings 🤔 so I had two copies there! Perhaps her wings may be a bit smaller if I do give her them.
Pam spits out molten magma that's stored up inside her as an attack. However, it can also be chunks of scrap metal that she stores up. Otherwise, it's just magma.
Though I didn't draw this, I want Pam to be very resilient to fire in general, as her species/family of dragon use their ability to spew this magma (technically Lava after ut leaves her body? I'll do more research on this...) in order to craft and shape metal. While other dragons need to spend some time to build up a fire hot enough, the Junker family line is able to do this much more easily. (Amber is a close second, though)
Her skin has the ability to crack and seep up lava out of it, potentially coating her body in this to give herself a temporary lava shield, something extremely hard to break through. (In the future, little Jessie may also be able to do this... however, Pam doesn't think she's ready at the moment and avoids the topic or any ideas of teaching her how.)
Colette:
Colette flies in a sort of funny way, twirling around and flapping her wings to maintain somewhat of a chaotic flight pattern. Think of a snake slithering through the sky, but with large wings and the grace of... a teenage dragon (not much, but it does work).
When she gets better at flying...pray and hope she isn't able to catch up to her favourite brawlers cause she isn't ever gonna let go of them 💀 It makes for a great attack, actually! Charging at enemies and coiling around them like a snake to prevent movement, like a big hug ❤️ she just loves everyone SO much 😍
Buster:
Finally kinda set on a design for this funky guy! He's a larger dragon (smaller than El Primo or Frank, but still definitely up there in size)
His wings never quite grew fully, so he wouldn't be able to fly 😔 however, that'll never stop him and his dreams of being a cool movie star 🧡🧡
Buster, at the heart of it, is an unstoppable force when he sets his mind to something. He'll charge in with the same ferocity as his favouite protagonists, rivalling the audacity and hard-headed nature of even Bull! All while doing so for his friends 💪 we love Buster in this AU frfr
Chester:
Chester always has theatrics when he flies. Flips, spins, and fun aerodynamic movements up in the sky! He's gotta compensate for his lack of speed compared to other wyverns after all, but he thinks he's pretty great 😎
Loved drawing this kinda unique pose tbh! That's what I loved with these drawings, I got to experiment without really thinking too much for em with how polished and clean that look. It was very fun! 🔥
Chuster ft. Gus❤️🧡:
We love some goofy gays here 🥹❤️🧡 I just wanted to let em have a little nuzzle + smooch! Dragons don't necessarily kiss, but little side boops like this are the equivalent of a cheek kiss.
Also, a little Gus on the side 🥹🥹 I love this sort of found family dynamic that have! Buster being the cool dad vibe/big bro to Gus, and then Buster being in a relationship with Chester so that he's also a cool dad too 😎 Gus loved these two guys from the very start, they're funny 🤭 never a boring day for these silly lads.
Leondy 💚💜:
My beloveds 🤲 I really do cherish the ship, as well as strong friendship Sandy and Leon have. (Btw in my HCs, Leon and Sandy are 13 & 14 respectively, just to clear that up!)
Sandy, I've mentioned a few times, is very inspired by Capybaras, so Leon finding one is just perfect 🤭 silly little deadpan face lads.
Bull:
BULLDOZERRRR- What a lad! Bull is inspired by- uh, Bulls! Great creatures, large bodies and thick necks to support those headstrong charges 🐂 I love making his posture all confident, strong steps to say, "Yeah. You TRY and stand up to me. I DARE you." Don't wanna mess with him on most days 🏃♀️💨💨
El Primo:
Still figuring out a full-body for El Primo, bit he's roughly the same size as Bull! (Maybe a bit bigger)
El Primo has got really small wings, similar to his El Dragón skin. Even his scales and horns are inspired by that mostly! Love when characters have preexisting dragon themed skins 🤭 makes it a lot easier to make ideas!
His "mask" is actually just body paint. He has similar paint on his body, really showing off the vibrant colours and persona he puts on for the crowds.
He WILL beat up his enemies into a pulp in matches. Thank goodness there's the gem powered regeneration and the respawn system in place 😭 I plan to give him a very strong body and tail, enough to support him when he needs to go on his hind legs and overpower his opponents. Buster is designed in a similar way as well!
Mandy:
Last but not least, the Queen of Candy herself. Not even the Dragon AU let's her escape fast food work 😔😔
Her super attack is purely a magical sugar-based rainbow blast, as shown in the sketch. Also, I'm now realizing that I forgot her red spots oml- No wonder she looks so empty 💀 uhh sorry about that, lads 😭 I'll redraw her one day to show off that glowing effect of her spots 🥹🥹
And that's all! Thank you for reading if you made it this far! Hopefully I can make more of these sketch dumps 🤭✨️ maybe take reqs from here too! We shall see. Take care y'all!

4.) When did you become a fan of TMNT?
18.) Who is your favorite villain?
19.) Who is your favorite ally?
27.) What is something you love to see in TMNT art/fics?
28.) What is one thing you would like to see explored more in TMNT art/fics?
33.) What is your favorite thing you've made for TMNT?
35.) Which character relationships are your favorite to write/draw?
Sorry there's so many 😅 you don't have to answer them all if you don't want to.
Also, I always love it when I see your posts. Everything you write is so interesting to read and it is always so fun! (with a side of pain for the angst ofc)
Anywizzle, I hope you have a great rest of your day/night :]
Don’t be sorry, I love answering these haha! And thank you, I’m happy that you enjoy my rambles! <3
4.) When did you become a fan of TMNT?
When I was super young, I’m talking like three years old young. I really liked the ‘87 reruns and as a dinosaur kid I liked that the turtles were vaguely dino-like to baby me haha
18.) Who is your favorite villain?
Hmmm I’m not done with the show yet, but it may just be 2012 Shredder. There’s something really insidious but human about him that I enjoy.
19.) Who is your favorite ally?
If she counts as one then Rise April! If she’s in her own category then probably Draxum?
27.) What is something you love to see in TMNT art/fics?
Honestly I adore when people put in little details from the show that are ultimately fluff text but add a whole lot of depth and character in subtle ways. (Example being making Donnie affectionately pet Mikey’s head as he did in Bug Busters)
28.) What is one thing you would like to see explored more in TMNT art/fics?
Hmmm, I guess exploring the flaws of characters that aren’t just Leo and Splinter and occasionally Donnie? I love my boy Leo, and I really love how his flaws make him so interesting and fun to write about, but at the same time I feel like the others have their own flaws completely wiped away or not given a lot of focus. Mikey especially I feel could use some attention in this regard, so I love seeing whenever he’s allowed to make mistakes too because it adds so much more depth to him.
33.) What is your favorite thing you've made for TMNT?
Hard question!! Honestly it depends on the day, but right now it’s actually the super quick sketch I made for the 40th anniversary comic haha! I also miss my Prison!Leo AU and really need to get back to it…
35.) Which character relationships are your favorite to write/draw?
It depends I think! Obviously, I love Leo to the moon and back so they’re all Leo dynamics (though I need to do more Donnie and April stuff too because I adore their dynamic as well), but it depends on the tone I’m going for in regard to what’s my favorite.
But if I absolutely had to pick, maybe either Splinter and Leo or Raph and Leo.

I am very much obsessed with your Runt AU; I desperately need to know more about your ideas for this unique idea.
The updated designs on the turtles look incredible but of course; Leon is best boy. All of this praise aside; I do have a few questions:
1. When does Runt move in with the turtles?
2. What is Runt's and Splinter's relationship like? Is it antagonistic at first or is it full of comfort?
3. Has Runt ever tried pizza? If so what is his reaction to it?
4. Will the disaster twins be even more chaotic then usual with their relationship?
5. And finally, what is Runt's reaction and thoughts to his first turtle pile?
I've become so infested with the brain rot!! I adore you so much and I eagerly await the next crumb of knowledge from this amazing AU! <3
Hahaha thanks! im glad hes rotting your mind like he is mine. I was gonna do a drawing for this but never managed to get to it
Im glad you like the redesigns, I had been putting it off for so long. Mostly because I didn't want to draw Raph and I was talked out of killing him so I didn't have to draw him.
1 - Runt moves in with the turtles after the bug busters episodes, not so much by his own choice. He had suffered from a bad migraine but powered on only to get hurt by Draxum and then thrown off a roof. So he wasn't having the best of time. The boys took him back to the lair and Runt did try and escape but it ended with him running into a wall. So he stayed until for maybe 2 days? or well until he thought, it was reasonable time to go, and ran back to the Hidden City. After that he kept coming back to to the mission.
2 - Runt and splinters relationship... it's not really antagonistic so to speak. Runt defiantly isn't friendly with splinter at first. Runts more focused on his mission (the brothers) to really pay him much mind. So for the most part Runt will ignore him. It’s not really until splinter tires to make an effort and open up about his own migraines to runt that things slowly change. Splinter teaches him how to make tea and they have late night tea when they both can’t sleep
Very slow progress though, there’s things later on that strains the relationship slightly.
3 - since he grew up sheltered up until his first mission, he hasn’t really had a chance to eat a lot of different types of food. However it wasn’t until he was living in the lair full time, is when he started to experiment with foods but that was mostly Mikes doing. His first tasting was overwhelming for him and had refused to eat the rest. But it wasn’t until later where he started to crave it. And he would secretly go to the fridge at night until mikey saw him try and. Much to ruby’s horror. strawberries are his favourite though. Not allowed a lot of sugar after last time.
4. - The lair games really set into motion the rivalry and competitiveness between them. Runt love challenges, he’s competitive by nature but all from his training. He finds joy in tormenting Donnie. Sadly I haven’t got much yet for them but don’t worry they will have the disaster twin title.
5 - Runt grows to love turtle piles. They’re warm and cosy where he can burrow into them. I haven’t thought of when his first one would happen but I know he’d probably flinch away. Unsure as to what’s going on. Once he does hell still be a bit stiff and be on edge. He’s act like nothings wrong but will slip the first he gets. It’s his mission to get close to the brothers so he’ll do this that make him uncomfortable if it means he’ll get in their good books.
Ahhh thank you! I’m glad you like this crazy ideas xD ❤️ ❤️❤️ I do have somethings pint you can have these sraftsfs
Ahh thank you! I’m hoping to get more out cos I love this gremlin❤️. But it’s been slow, been hating everything I’ve been doing. But have some sketches

(March 2023) morXa sorXa armorXa
Note: this post originally was only b&w sketches; I'm using the colored version of the first image here because I figure I might as well post it now.
Original post body under the cut:
These are still WIPs and I want to further refine the vambrace buster concept before I get to coloring any of this, but I'm getting antsy sitting on all this unshared progress I've made with sorXa's armor design, so fuck it, I'm posting what I have so far!! I've more or less said "fuck it" and started leaning into the Χ/χ motif à la X (particularly his X8 design), though the besagew is actually also meant to evoke a clover, partly because sorXa's name is pronounced like the Irish way of saying "Sorcha" (which would make it a shamrock), but also largely because I'm nothing if not a huge MMZ dweeb and I love the lyrical version of MMZ2's credits theme from RTRZ: Idea, which is called... Clover. (the original song is Awakening Will, for reference, which itself is a reprise of the hypest intro stage theme I've ever fucking heard, Departure, which plays during what's also probably the most badass opening to a game I've ever seen. Zero 2 isn't my favorite in the series, but that intro goes so fucking hard!!... I think I got a bit off-topic here, haha)
Transcripts under the cut, since even if I'm not done yet I figure I might as well help people make out what I wrote if I'm posting these as WIPs:
Page 1 (sorXa armor concepts):
gold rivets? (pointing to the forehead plate of her helm, accompanied by a sketch showing the positioning of the three rivets)
speakers (pointing to the circles on her facemask)
Megamix-style arms (next to her big bulky round forearm armor; this idea is altered in the third image to be more like Mega Man Volnutt from the Legends series)
Page 2 (sorXa armor concepts):
mask can detach if lip-reading is needed for clearer communication (near her detached mask, which is connected to her helm by a tether on each side)
❌ no (next to a besagew shaped like a Phillips-head screw)
sapphic! (next to a besagew with indents shaped like the violet used in some versions of the Sapphic pride flag)
Clover + "Χ" (next to a variant of the previous besagew with only 4 indents; an arrow points from the Sapphic violet besagew to the clover besagew)
historical! (next to a besagew with a shallow cone in the center of a bowl-like rim)
gold or red ring? (pointing to a variant of the above besagew with a lighter-colored ring around the central cone)
maybe only 1? → R or L? (above a small mockup of sorXa's torso with only one besagew; "L" is circled, which is reflected by the first page's design of her armor)
Page 3 (sorXa armor concepts (buster cannon)):
vents on top | slides up & out (pointing to a raised part of her vambrace, which is now more cylindrical than the previous images)
thruster (pointing at jetpack-like structures on the back of her cuirass; note that these will be revised in a future drawing, probably)
(duplicated at the back of her calf, which also has a visible jet of sorts)
[various color ideas for her boots] (the poleyns will probably be gold with red "fan plates"/hinges, which will be replicated on her ankle adornments as well; the calves themselves are black (of course), and the notes show her boots as having white outsoles and red soles, though I think I might reverse that in practice)
4 holes (pointing to the beveled edge of her vambrace hear the wrist, accompanied by a simple drawing showing roughly the positioning of those holes, which are in an X-formation)
Model A + Bridget (pointing at the bumpy protrusions on the outsoles of her boots, which are meant to evoke the boots of Model A from Mega Man ZX Advent and the shoes of Bridget's Guilty Gear Strive Design)

[ID: Ten digitally sketched panels in black and white, with one instance of red and green.]
[Panel 1: Hare approaches The Skull worriedly, holding up a hand in a 'slow down' gesture. He says, "Skull, wait (em-dash)" The Skull calmly says, "There's no time. Dee's giving us a chance, and I'm taking it."]
[Panel 2: Hare's temper flares, and he says sharply, "You're damn quick to throw yourself at the Walters' mercy! What if they're tricking you like Buster's men did, and they off you while your guard's down?!"]
[Panel 3: The Spine, offended, says, "We wouldn't do that!" Hare growls at him, "Yeah? You lot wouldn't jump at the chance to get rid of a thorn in your side?"]
[Panel 4: The Spine looks over at The Jon, who tilts his head curiously. The Jon asks, "Would you?"]
[Panel 5: Hare looks away silently (ellipses). The Skull says, "Hare. I've put my life on the line for you and Jack more times than I care to think about. Doing it one more time, for Scratch (ellipses)"]
[Panel 6: Shot over The Skull's shoulder, only part of his face visible. Behind him is Rabbit, looking concerned. The Skull says, "(ellipses) Well, it's not life we've got much else left to protect."]
[Panel 7: Hare becomes livid, his eye glowing green. Behind him is a white-to-dark gradient, on top of which the silhouette of the amplifier is surrounded by red. Hare demands angrily, "What are you looking at?! You pitying us?!"]
[Panel 8: The Jack leans forward on the bench and says, "Hare, she's not (em-dash)" Hare storms away, past Dee, saying, "I can't watch this." From underneath the bench, Tatters watches him go.]
[Panel 9: Hare leaves the room. Vivian says, brows creased, "We should hurry. I need to start looking at that inverter."]
[Panel 10: The Skull looks over at The Jack, who back looks at him guiltily. The Skull says, "I know. Get it ready. Jack. Before I go, I need to say something." End ID]

Matching keychains
Ramuda Amemura x Reader
Genre/s: Angst (no comfort)
Word count: 2,788
Plot/Summary: This feeling has always been lingering in the back of his mind, but he knew that this can't last forever. Despite loving you for so long, he finally decides to let you go.
A/N: I recommend you listen to the instrumental of Buster Bros' Re:start whilst reading this as I was listening to it whilst writing this and honestly, it made the angst 10x worse! I might continue this fic because I actually really like it, and I love Ramuda so why not?
[I love Hypmic so much and I've always wanted to write fics surrounding the franchise, but I'm still pretty new to it, so please bare with me on how I portray these characters. I'm trying my hardest to make these accurate to the character as possible. Thank you for understanding and I hope you enjoy reading!]
There was something important that you needed to get done today and it involved you visiting the most popular toy shop in Shibuya. This city was known for its shopping let alone its vast entertainment, fashion, and restaurants, so this task was bound to be easy for you!
You stepped inside the building in awe at the wide range of plushies. They ranged from big to small, from animals to people to even little accessories for them as well! You were already tempted to get something for yourself, but that wasn't the reason why you were here.
You wondered around the shop trying to find a specific item in stock. It was extremely crowded, so you ended up bumping into a lot of other customers.
Hmm, where could it be? you thought to yourself, already overwhelmed. It should be here...!
Thankfully, a shop assistant caught your eye and helped you find the item that you were looking for. Once you were shown the selection of plushie keychains, your worries disappeared just like that. You thanked the worker profusely.
You giggled to yourself as you picked up the two matching bunny keychains. One was pink whilst the other one was white. Both bunnies were wearing bows of the other's colour. It was so cute!
"Ramuda would love this!" you chirped.
Yes, the sole reason you came to this particular area was to buy a little gift for your boyfriend, Ramuda. You saw the two plushies advertised on your Twitter feed and instantly thought of him. You thought it would be so cute to have matching keychains with the love of your life!
You exited the store happily with the plushies you just bought. You can't wait to surprise Ramuda with them, and it was a perfect day to do so because he had asked you to meet up with him this evening.
"I wonder what he has planned for us tonight~" you wondered excitedly.
In his shop, Ramuda was anxiously scribbling in his sketchbook, thinking of ideas on what new clothes to design but to no avail because all he could think about was you.
The page he was currently working on was now filled with messy, indescribable pencil scratches. Whatever he was doodling wasn't pretty and he knew of it. He just wanted to rip everything out, destroy everything until these feelings of his were no more.
"Are you okay?" asked Gentarou, looking at Ramuda's sketches from behind his shoulder.
And as on cue, Ramuda immediately slammed his sketchbook shut and answered cheerfully, "I'm A-OK! I'm just having art block at the moment! Nothing too serious. I'll try again later~!"
Gentarou didn't believe a second of it, but shrugged it off.
"Just so you know," Gentarou began. "You can always tell–"
Ramuda cut him off. "I'm alright," he said slowly.
He jumped up from his seat to give his usual little twirl.
"Well, I'm off to see (Y/N) now~!" he exclaimed. "She's waiting for me, so I have to be there quick! I'll be back, so you don't need to close the shop. See you later~!"
Gentarou watched his friend skip out of the shop hurriedly. Once he was gone, Dice entered.
"I just saw Ramuda run out," he stated. "He wasn't looking too good. Is he okay?"
Gentarou merely shook his head.
You idled around the park, taking in the cool breeze and the amber sunset above. It truly was a beautiful evening and you couldn't wait to spend it with Ramuda.
A thought popped into your head. You should take a picture of the plushies you bought today with the sunset in the background!
You placed the two bunnies down on one of the park's benches, positioning them together as if they were holding hands. You giggled to yourself at how embarrassing this was, but it was such a cute idea! You were thankful that the park was empty at this time.
You quickly snapped a picture and to your satisfaction, it was the most beautiful picture of a sunset you have ever taken. You couldn't wait to post this on your Instagram page with your lover tagged!
"(Y/N)!"
You could hear faint footsteps running towards you. Shoving the plushies back into your bag before Ramuda could see them, you turned around to greet your boyfriend with the brightest smile on your face.
His pace slowed down as he stopped a few metres away from you. Seeing you smile at him like that made his heart ache. He would usually match your expression, but this time, he returned your smile with a look of such emptiness that it just wasn’t hard to miss.
Your smile faded away quickly.
"Ramuda... are you okay...?"
The distance between you two was unbearable, but you knew that you weren’t permitted to cross the invisible barrier Ramuda was holding up. So, you stayed stuck to your spot, and he did too.
“(Y/N),” he repeated, but with sadness to his tone. “Remember when you asked me where my parents were… or what my childhood was like?”
You didn’t know where he was going with this.
He continued, “…or which high school I attended? Who I was before I became a fashion designer? Before The Dirty Dawg? …But I didn’t answer any of it?”
You stared at him. He wasn't the Ramuda you were used to seeing everyday. His demeanour was completely different, but it wasn't too much of a surprise to you. Sometimes, you'd catch glimpses of this other personality, but you doubt he'd ever catch you noticing it.
“…I had none of what you had, none of what the average person has had in their lives. You could even say that I did not even have a life before any of this. You may not believe me, (Y/N), but what I’m going to tell you from this point on is the truth. Unfortunately, I can’t give you too many details as it’s not in my right.”
He watched your expression, the confusion and worry on your face. You wanted to ask him why he was bringing this up now, but you continued to stay in your spot, awaiting his explanation.
As he stated before, he didn’t bring up too many details. Though, he confessed that the personality he presented to others including you was all made up – a lie. He mentioned that he wasn’t the ‘real Ramuda’ and that he could never be the real one. He told you that he merely exists for someone else, not himself, and if he were to disobey them, he would be killed. He described himself as ‘defective’ as if he was a product. He revealed why he was a massive sweet tooth as the lollipops helped him to continue living.
“And that’s why… we should break up,” he said finally. “I’m just going to cause you trouble if I continue to be with you.”
You were speechless. It was so much to take in. He had finally told you about his background, but now he was suggesting that you two should break up. You didn’t know what to say, but all you wanted to do in that moment was to touch him.
“So please–” he began.
You pulled him in, letting his chin rest on your shoulder as your other hand held his head gently. It was getting hard to breathe as tears streamed down your face. Ramuda was frozen, his eyes showing nothing but perplexity.
"I'm sorry you had to go through that all on your own," you whispered. “I’m sorry if I wasn’t too attentive or if I wasn’t there for you.”
Ramuda chuckled with some sort of annoyance.
“It’s not your fault, (Y/N). You were always there for me; I just never made those feelings known. But we need to end things now. You can never truly be happy with me for who I am and what I will have to deal with in the future. Things will get too complicated and not only will it hurt you but me as well.”
Even when he was saying all of that, his arms couldn’t help but hug you back. He couldn’t stop himself from shedding a few tears. Why did you believe him so easily? Why did you trust him so much? Why do you still care about him even after confessing that his whole character was fake?
And as if you were reading his mind, you replied, “I don’t want to end things with you. I don’t care about who you were, I just care about who you are right now… even… even if it’s a lie. I don’t care. I know how kind and passionate you are. We can easily overcome these obstacles, can we not?"
Ramuda was silent, pulling away from your embrace. He shook his head and looked at you sadly.
“(Y/N), I’m going to let you go, and so should you. This is my final decision.”
"Ramuda!"
He smirked. “I’m not going to lie though, I really do love you, and it sucks because I’m going to keep loving you.”
"Then–"
He shook his head, interrupting you. “But we can’t keep doing this. I can’t risk you getting involved and I can’t keep you from being in a better relationship. You can’t be happy with me. So, go find yourself a better man; someone that will always make you feel safe and happy… like Ichiro or something.”
Before you started dating Ramuda, you were close friends with Ichiro. This was during The Dirty Dawg days where the leaders of each division were grouped together. Your friendship with Ichiro was genuine and he was so lovely towards you. You would always laugh with him and shared each other’s stories. People often caught you together by the lake watching the sunset.
Ramuda always felt guilty that he robbed you off a beautiful relationship with Ichiro. But despite knowing your mutual feelings, he still shoved his way through the bubble you and Ichiro had together. He did all he can to pop that little bubble of yours, he’d butt into your conversations whenever he got the chance. He didn’t care whether you liked Ichiro or if Ichiro liked you back, he just wanted you to be his. He liked you too after all! And eventually, with all his attempts of breaking you two up, he succeeded.
“What?! Why are you saying that?!” you cried. "Why would you tell me to go find another lover when all I want is you?! My feelings for Ichiro are in the past now! I don't want him, I just want YOU. Why is this so difficult to understand that I don't care about who you are?!"
“(Y/N), stop!” he shouted. “I’m not going to change my mind!”
He was crying. He was crying as much as you now.
“If I didn’t get in between you two, you would’ve been in a happier relationship. You wouldn’t need to worry about me or the troubles I will cause. You wouldn’t need to worry about where he is or what he’s doing unlike me! He’s genuine and he’s real. He’s probably everything you’ve been looking for in me!” he said as he choked on his words. “I’m sorry for doing that to you two. I should’ve ignored you back then so you wouldn’t need to hear me say all this stuff now.”
The tears in your eyes wouldn't stop flowing, but you were also getting fed up with him. You just wanted to reason with him. You didn’t want to end things like this, not now and not ever.
“I said I don’t care!” you yelled. “Ramuda, I just want to be with you! I will only ever love you!”
Ramuda was stunned at your words, but he laughed even with the tears gushing down his face. He cupped your face with both of his hands and kissed you softly – his last kiss to you.
“Ah, (Y/N), I’m really going to miss you,” he croaked. “I… I really am going to m-miss you…”
"Ramuda, please..."
"It's time for you to forget me, okay?"
How did such a beautiful day turn into something so sad? You just wanted to give him your matching keychains…
He whipped out some sort of device – a hypnosis mic? – and sang something. There was no time to react as everything became a blur. You tried calling out his name once again, but the last image you had of him was of him smiling at you with the glassiest eyes you have ever seen.
A few months from now...
There would be times you would feel some sense of melancholy in the air. That feeling would happen whenever you'd enter a particular shop or area, but you never knew why you felt that way.
Ramuda lived his life as usual. Before he took you home, he erased everything of his existence from your phone, computer, and physical photo albums – anything he could get his hands on. It pained him that he had to do this, but he wanted you to start anew. He hoped that you were still able to fall in love with Ichiro again even if it will hurt him.
"And done!" said Ramuda, finishing off his sketches. "It's perfect. The ladies would love this collection~!"
"Oh, you’re finally done?” Dice said as he munched on his lunch Gentarou paid for. “That was fast.”
Ramuda giggled. He was proud of himself for completing such a task. He couldn't wait to see how the final product will turn out.
"Oh, by the way," he started. "We're going to participate in the Division Rap Battle next week, so be ready~!"
You were convinced by your co-workers to watch the DRB with them after work, so you decided to clean your photo storage. You liked taking pictures whenever you’d attend concerts after all!
As you were going through all your photos, you stumbled upon a photo you didn’t remember taking. It was a photo of two bunny plushies sitting on a bench in front of a beautiful amber sunset; a pink and white bunny who looked like they were holding hands.
"I didn't know I had plushies like that..." you said slowly.
You got up and looked around your room for those plushies. As a result, you made a huge mess, but you were just happy you found one of them. It was the pink bunny with a white bow. However, you couldn’t find the white bunny anywhere, and you searched everywhere for it.
"Weird," you commented, looking at the pink bunny. "When did I buy this again?"
It was fluffy and soft, and the feeling of melancholy washed over you once again. You still didn’t understand why you keep getting that feeling. You shrugged it off like you always did.
Attaching the pink bunny keychain to your bag, you left the house to meet up with your co-workers to get to the stadium.
The stadium was packed. The girls around you were squealing over a particular figure, Ramuda Amemura, who was currently rapping against Matenro.
You haven’t seen Ramuda in a while despite living in the same city. You were good friends with him when The Dirty Dawg was still around, but after they disbanded, you two never kept in touch. He slowly became distant with you which kind of annoyed you because you had heard from the others how he still kept in touch with Ichiro and Samatoki.
You would see him a lot on social media though. He was super popular with the girls, and he had the best fashion sense that was to your taste. You even purchased some of his pieces online.
He was now active in Fling Posse and his raps were as brilliant as they were before. He seemed more energetic too.
You watched him from the seats attentively as the girls around you cheered him on. But you were extremely confused because as Fling Posse lost against Matenro and was ushered to leave the stage, you spotted it – the white bunny keychain, the same one in the picture that matched your pink bunny keychain you currently had hung on your bag. Ramuda had the bunny attached to his hoodie.
And yet you still didn’t understand why this sense of melancholy came back to you, tugging on your heart strings even more than ever. Even when your eyes locked with Ramuda’s for just a second, even when your eyes began to water, you still didn’t understand why you were feeling this way.
For some reason, you just wanted to chase after him and hold him tight, but all you could really do was watch him smile at the crowd and walk away.

The Girl (2)
so chapter 2 is out. please let me know what you think in comments. the drawing took the longest. also because the movie is new at the time of typing this. I was stuggling with doing all of this by mermory --love you all
“SLIVER! Wake up dog.”
I launch forward. Breathing heavily. Feeling my surroundings soft floor. Car windows in front of me. I am on earth I am in reeks car, in the Back seat.
“You look like you were going to mess someone up.”
Now I am differently on earth.
“Hey reek.”
I slowly climbed out of the backseat of his car. There was no way I was going back to sleep any time soon.
“Are you fighting that monster again.”
“Yea something like that.”
Monster was the excuse I used to when I toss and turn. No one ask anything more. I pulled out my two bags. They were basically my lifelines. A mini purse backpack I put around my waist. While the black and green on was on my back. I got to do a lot today.
“Thanks for letting me crash in the back seat.”
I was shaking my head getting the bed rest hair gone.
“No problem. You help me more than I can ask for it’s the least I can do.”
“Either way thanks and call me if you need me.”
“Hey before you run off will you be okay. I have seen you toss and turn in your sleep and beating up those “monsters” before, But not like this.”
“I mean it one of those dreams where it seems like a memory but it’s not.”
“what’s the memory?”
“I don’t know, it wasn’t being clear.”
My watch began beeping.
“I’m going to be late. I got to go.”
“Hey, be careful and No more disappearing without a word.”
“I’ll try, can’t promise.”
Someone holding a bag of apples when one apple began falling to the ground. I put my knee out and let it bounce back. In the bag. Putting the ear buds in my ear so I can dim the world around me. I pulled random granola bar out my purse. I need something in my stomach, Or I will be the monster in real life. This will have to do. Substation was my fast possible route to get to where I am needed. The subway gets me a moment to write in my journal. I always wrote in something, ever since I little I would wright anything that was worth remembering. That not the first time I dream about something like that. but this is the first time interacting with the environment.
These dreams play out like a movie. I was always on the side just watching everything unfold. like people do in a theater. most of the dreams that I do remember are fragments. I had one were two lover’s kisses. I had one where a farther is knocking down his daughter. There are too many that I remember. my mine can't remember the last time a thing like this happens. This is diffidently first time some being has died.
Why did he say midnight. Who midnight I am sliver and no one else. After sitting in a spot that was safe as you could be. I open my big bag and pull out a notebook the said ‘I need space’ and it had a galaxy in space background. It a sketch book but I write and draw in it. a ton of people have called it many names. Reek called it a journal before. I had many people call it my dairy. Buster jokingly said before it my evil planner. Yea right buster. I can't hurt a fly even If I wanted to. In a way It’s a journal of me. my life, people I meet, my dreams. I hope this journal shows that I was not perfect. I am human just like everyone else.
After going to a blank page. I was sketching the whole dream; the face of the ape was first thing that came to mind. The sequence was mushy, but I did my best on all the important parts.
Above the guy that won the battle. I wrote scrouge in big sharp letter. Underneath him. I wrote bad guy with a question mark. Because to everyone can be a bad guy to a family like scourge could be bad to just this ape and his family. Then have no fire with me. I have a feeling that not the case. it a possibility can't full rule out the. ‘Proven until guilty’ what the cops say. Above the ape I wrote Apeling. Leader of the maximal.
Why did I write that and why did that feel right. Who are the maximal? Confusion filled my brain with how I know any of this. Let alone where did these works come from?
“You will know soon.” A whisper came from my left. there was no one there when I turn my head. the seat was completely empty and there was no one behind me that could be close enough to say it.
“Next stop Broadway Ave. “
Closing the book and grabbing my bags. I slip past people.my body has a flow. I slip pass people without touching them knowing I was there. anyone would use it to their advantage when its places like this. At these times it almost completely true and I used it. I have gotten to the top of the stairway without any issue.
“I don’t want to, but I need too.” I spotted the clinic with its massive red plus sign. Speedy across the sidewalk to reach it without any difficulties walk over. I pull out a 10 I had in my pocket and put it in buster cup.
“Hey sliver.”
“Hey buster. Keep both of stomachs full.”
“You know I feed him before I feed myself.”
Buster was a homeless guy with a lot mental and physical problems. He is ex-military soldier, who lost his arm in battle. With the battle on top of that he has severe PTSD. Then there Altan a small brown and white boxer, that found his way in buster arms. Altan means second chance. Buster even admitted feeling like he gotten a second chance, ever since he meant the boxer.
“That is loyalty, at its finest”
I open the door. where there was no line, making me not delay any longer.
“Here for sliver.”
The lady behind desk. Look at her Monitor.
“Ahh yes for your shots right.”
“Yea” I said grimly.
“It will be over before you know it.” She said with an empathetic smile and pointed to the waiting room.
No one hates them like me. me and needles have a VERY bad history. Before I can go down memory lane. I spot an eleven-year-old by his self. Seem like Noah was trying to speed up the waiting process again.
“Hey tails”
“Hey sliver, you getting your shots done?”
“Yea, you know me and needles. Did you finish that level with bowser?”
No, I gotten him down like 5 percent. One attack away from wining. Then I died.”
“Oh man. You were almost there. You were one hit away?”
“Yea.”
“how about this, I help you beat him tonight?”
“It sounds like fun.”
“Okay I have nothing planned after this, so I can follow you home.”
“My brother has an interview.”
“I can still follow and keep you company. An interview takes about an hour.”
“SLIVER.” Said a nurse in blue.
“Looks like my que. Hey, can you watch greenie I have a feeling you would be here a bit.” Only grabbing my purse and my journal that still in my hand.
“Sure.”
“Be back tails.”
Nothing special happen. They ask the classic questions. Took my measurements, and weight. Am I don’t any drugs. Am I smoke so on so forth.
When I was left in the room, I wrote in my journal my weight and height. I still average size, but I grew an inch. Now, I am 5’5. I went to the page with the monkey and robot. I know I need to add more. Like that ball or sphere in my dream and they shape of that key. Just trying to do whatever to distract myself. Form mine understand this “scourge” is linked to this “Unicron” in some way. I am guessing, that this Unicron eats planets to fill their hunger. These Maximals are keeping this key away. I drew just a diamond because the closest I can draw it because it went with that second ape. I barely saw him for a minute.
Okay main thing to take away from this dream so far. key from Unicron. This Scrouge and Terrorcons do whatever Unicron says. These Maximals are this guardian of this key. That would make him more powerful. They swore to play keep away.
This is all to my understanding. Many questions are going through my head. what is this key. where did the rest of the Maximals go. what more is out there? who is this ‘midnight’? the biggest question that I have was, why me? I just a nobody that just run and knows a lot of random facts.
I just kept sketching I just let my hand wonder.
A doctor in white coat came in. my right sleeve was already rose up for her. So, I can get this over. my legs were crossed, so this book was in some what a stable condition.
“that’s a nice wolf you are drawing there.”
A black wolf was under the word midnight. Was that midnight? My gut was saying yes but didn’t want to trust it on something as a drawing. I can't seem to find a reason to disagree.
“Thank you.” I said trying to be polite. Now realizing she was cleaning up.
This wolf was nothing like me. I am a human from my planet earth. I am walking on two feet not four. I have hair, not fur. There so much that different between the two of us. could the ape confuse my kindness for her, or Mr. Apelinq could have been having a life flash before his eye’s moment.
I HATE not knowing. I also know that I am not getting an answer. While I was going down this worm hole of possibilities or theories. The appointment was over before I know it. Prefect timing to as I was walking out sonic, and tails were about to start there’s.
“I got it tails, go.”
I traded places with him. I pull out the last cholate chip cookie I had in the green bag. Staring monkey with graphite eyes. Like he could talk back.
“How can I solve this mystery?

Do you ever think Cloud went to Reeve for help with the Fusion Sword or Fenrir? Looking over blueprints or possible add-ons? Do you think Reeve had the idea for the compartments on Fenrir for the Fusion Sword?
Do you ever think they bonded over mechanics and tinkering?
(im sorry i know this is based very heavily on my 'post-vii cloud likes working on his bike and sword(s)' headcanon but. the fusion sword had to have come from Somewhere, right? fenrir needs to be looked over regularly so it keeps running properly, right? do you See my vision?)
Absolutely, at the very least with Fenrir! I think that the idea for the fusion sword came from Cloud - my headcanon is that post-FFVII Cloud tries to find a new weapon and ends up using dual blades (unpopular weapon, so it’s easy to get his hands on, light and easy to carry around), but misses the heft of the buster, and so ends up sketching up various ideas for the fusion sword and went through a few different designs, and eventually asks for Reeve to help him figure out the specifics to get it to actually work.
And then I headcanon that a lot of Cloud's initial traveling post-FFVII is going places and doing things for Reeve ex: checking on reactors and such, and so Reeve slowly started to upgrade Cloud's motorcycle (mostly from ideas that Cloud gets while on the road) until we get to Fenrir! Cloud loves the bike and wants to know more about it, Reeve loves sharing stuff and also thinks it'd good for Cloud to know how to fix up at least some problems, and voila, hanging out!... not that Cloud's great to hang out with pre Advent Children, but oh well.
Now you may think, gee, wouldn't Reeve be too busy as the head of the WRO for doing mechanical stuff? To which I say, the guy's gotta unwind somehow.
The compartments in my mind were originally Cloud would stick his swords into the bike if he was battling while riding. By this time he knew where to put them that wouldn't do too much damage, but it drove Reeve crazy and so he designed the comparments so that Cloud would stop carving into his bike.
#ffvii#ff7#cloud strife#reeve tuesti#does any of this make any sense?#it's late o'clock#anyway thanks for the reeve ask#i could talk about this man forever#alltheoutsinfreeeee#ask#asks#browniefox speaks

So yesterday I was in a bit of a funk, both due to me having bombed my math exam (and probably all my others), and because I wanted to draw but couldn’t figure out what to draw, and anything I was making didn’t look very good. Then I decided, “hey, I have Cookie Run ocs, why not just make a page with them?” And so I did
I was planning on having more sketches, but the drawings were big on my canvas and I couldn’t fit more (I like to keep them roughly the same size
First I wanted to draw Cabbage Rose again, because he’s honestly one of my favorite AI generated cookies, and this time I gave him a redesign, now that I wasn’t constrained by the art generator. Mainly I changed his hair and gave his sword more stuff so that it looked like a regular sword, particularly with the leaves on the end (though to be honest I feel like they ended up looking more like wings). The cape design was giving me difficulty, I probably need to draw it without it fluttering in the wind so I can get a better grasp of it
Also can I just say, I hate the fact that there are colors of his that are close enough that having them both feels unnecessary, but different enough that I can’t change it to one or the other because it looks wrong. I try to have colors repeat themselves to minimize the number of colors and keep it simple, but I can’t do that here and it annoys me
Anyways next up we have the Cacao siblings (and technically the only canon character in this page). I was originally gonna draw Ruby with a more dynamic pose, with her and her brother fighting off beasts, but then I decided instead to have her basically teaching Dark Cacao about how to use a sword, which is what she’s doing here. They’re supposed to be still at the tribe with some swords they had around
I was considering giving her a different weapon to differentiate herself from her brother, so that they don’t seem like just copies, but then I figured that if anyone were to teach Dark Cacao how to use a sword, it would make logical sense for it to be his older sister, especially when they’re living on their own
Also you get a full body reference for Ruby Cacao now
Alright, now let’s move onto the final one, with Blueberry Ice Cream Cookie and Strawberry Jam Cookie (note, I still want to change that name, but I haven’t figured out to what. They’re a Legendary grade, and most Legendaries tend to have names that are either what they are (aka Wind Archer, Fire Spirit, Millennial Tree) or like, what their role is/what they represent (again Wind Archer, Timekeeper, Moonlight?). Technically Strawberry Jam is made of strawberry jam, but that’s still in keeping with normal Cookies, which they aren’t. If anyone has suggestions feel free)
The only major thing I changed here was Blueberry Ice Cream’s sword, the Blueberry Buster Sword. Originally it looked more like the Strawberry Jam Sword, but I wanted to change it because they later consider it be their greatest failure and despise it. So why would they make their perfect creation, the Strawberry Jam Sword, look just like it? I mean it’s still a sword, because that’s what they use, but they wouldn’t make them look so similar. So with this I ended up basing it more on the Final Fantasy Buster Sword, as well as just pictures of broadswords/greatswords, since that’s what the Buster Sword is based on. I was considering moving the gem onto the blade like the FF7 one, but I thought that looked too similar
On one hand, I feel like redesigning Strawberry Jam Cookie, since when I see the Sovereign, I don’t really feel like these two are the same person. But then again, the Sovereign has Dark Choco’s body, so they wouldn’t really look/feel the same, would they?
I was also STRUGGLING with Strawberry Jam’s posing, specifically with the sword. I wanted them to be swinging it high up, but I couldn’t find a good pose to reference that had that, so I had to try and improvise myself. Unfortunately, I didn’t really have a big stick, other than my mop. And a mop isn’t exactly the same as a sword. Not to mention I kept holding like a flag because habit. I feel like it looks like they’re just holding it close to their face, when they’re supposed to be swinging it. Maybe eventually once I figure it out I’ll go back and change it
It was fun drawing them side by side though, since I can definitely see similarities and differences between them, so that you wouldn’t immediately think they’re related, but you can still pick up on similar elements
Another thing, this pose is sort of what I imagine a banner with them would look like. Well I mean not entirely, I’d personally have Strawberry Jam taking up more horizontal space, but something like this. I have this idea in my head of these two being part of like, a Halloween update, and when you see the two on the banner initially, you might think that these two are fighting each other, or Blueberry Ice Cream is having to defend against them in some way. You might also notice that’s the Strawberry Jam Sword and assume this is lore about the original wielder of the SJS and perhaps someone they fought, possibly the one who sealed them in the sword. And once you start their story, things seem to be fine, it’s just introducing our protagonist, Blueberry Ice Cream. But then as the story progresses, you eventually realize that there’s definitely some shady connection between the two, and eventually some to the realization that they are in fact the same person, just at different points in their life, and you watch Blueberry Ice Cream turn into this horrible monster
I say Halloween specifically because it’s supposed to be like a scary story about a good person’s corruption into pure evil, and the fact that it doesn’t end on a good note. Also another way the story might be framed is as a scary story being told to younger Cookies, though it is a true story.
I also imagine that the ending would involve Dark Choco when he was younger. If it’s the storytelling version, at the end of the tale, he asks if this was true, and the narrator’s reply implies to him that it’s not that reliable, and more a story to scare children (even though again the story presented is supposed to be true), so Dark Choco chooses to ignore its warnings and keep seeking the sword out. If the story is a series of flashbacks, then the final cutscene is Strawberry Jam Cookie, in the void of their sword within Dragon’s Valley, having lost all semblance of who they once were, and likely their own humanity (or the Cookie equivalent of that I guess). Then, it hears a voice, and we see a silhouette of young Dark Choco, exclaiming that he finally found the legendary sword, and Strawberry Jam Cookie says something along the lines of (but not this at all) “someone new…he will do nicely…”. We all know what happens from there, but the last thing we see are Strawberry Jam Cookie’s words, so we don’t see the corruption
But yeah, it was fun doing these. To be honest, now I just want to draw more of them
#cookie run#cookie run kingdom#cookie run oc#cabbage rose cookie#ruby cacao cookie#dark cacao cookie#blueberry ice cream cookie#strawberry jam cookie#strawberry jam sword#sovereign of darkness#have I mentioned the hypothetical event with those two before? Not sure I have#another name idea I had for Strawberry Jam is Jam Drop Cookie#a type of cookie that has jam in the middle (which can include strawberry jam)#but also that falls in the more “normal Cookie” naming scheme#rather than the “legendary Cookie” one#sorry I just have a lot more to say about those two than the others#at least when writing this#my ocs#my art#oh yeah I forgot so there might be confusion as to the pronouns of BIC and SJC#Blueberry uses he/him Strawberry uses they/them and the Sovereign is usually referred to as it#because by that point it’s not really considered a Cookie

BEHOOOOOOOOOLD!!!
✨Mega Man Ultimate's title screen! ✨
(Check under the cut for the usual Star Insight, a process of how the above sprite piece was drawn as well as concept art!)
Ever since Mega Man Ultimate's inception way back in 2018, a faux title screen for it was very much always in the cards. Since then, however, the concept and story of Ultimate has changed over time, and several years later, I thought it would be a fun little challenge to revisit the idea of spriting a title screen for Mega Man Ultimate, and was quick to set out to work!
Upon prepping my workstation, I knew I had everything I need: image dimensions, a brand-new iteration of the Mega Man Ultimate logo, and a general idea of how I wanted Ultimate's title screen to stand out from all the others (Gradient edges, colored text, etc.)! Though, the one thing I didn't have on hand was perhaps the most important aspect of a Mega Man title screen... the art.
@tondemo-sliceuu and I had been batting ideas back and forth on what would be a fitting visual for Ultimate's title screen, and eventually it was decided that a sprite piece of Mega Man holding his buster while an intimidating silhouette of Synth looms overhead. So, we had the concept, now it was time to draw some hasty concept art!
Yeah, that'll do! Technically, since Ultimate's tumblr reveal back at the end of 2020, this is more than likely many of my followers' very first glimpse of the head honcho of the Synth Legion, the walking artillery Synth himself! I promise that eventually he'll get his own introductory post once I get around to finishing his sprite, though this does make for a menacing teaser.
Now, all that's left is to take that concept art and sprite it out, refining it accordingly!
Similar to drawing Stellar Man's stage select portrait, this particular sprite piece was not only drawn with little to no preliminary sketching beforehand, but also drawn in one sitting! I think this was drawn in anywhere between one and a half to two hours, if memory serves correctly... even if I did just draw it yesterday.
But seeing how well it turned out, I was ecstatic to get to show it off here on tumblr, and am looking forward to seeing what everyone thinks! ✨
#Star's Art#Mega Man Ultimate#Rockman U: The Renegades Rise#Mega Man#Rockman#Synth#SLN-000#Sprite Art#Coolness#Tried a bit of a new post format for this post!#Now I'll be showing off my art front and center at the start of each post and going into detail under a 'read more'#That way everyone can see my art first thing when I show up on their dashboards!#I initially wanted to start formatting my posts this way going into 2023...#... BUT EVERYONE H A S TO SEE THIS PIECE.#I put SO much work into this (If it wasn't already evident) that I just had to get this post up as soon as I could!#Initially I wanted to see if I could sprite Synth in his entirety but with like a blue/purple palette...#... but I find that only his silhouette is all the more cooler and mysterious!#If anyone wants a wallpaper version of this I W I L L oblige and craft one#Also! Name drop for Mega Man Ultimate's 'team'... the Starfighter Team!#Named after the starship in Bosconian if you'll recall!#Basically I see the Starfighter Team being composed of everyone who's supported my Mega Man Ultimate posts...#... two big names that come to mind are tondemo-sliceuu and stephysalcido...#They are like the top of the Starfighter Team let me tell you.#And hey! To anyone who's stuck around this long in pertains to my Mega Man Ultimate posts...#Consider yourself a Starfighter too! ✨#ALSO THIS APPARENTLY IS MY 500TH POST????????? 👀#What a fitting piece for such a feat!

J*hnny D*pp is untouchable garbage, ik, but there's one older movie of his I think about a lot called Benny & Joon, where he does this Buster Keaton sort of routine and after Joon sees it, she asks, 'Did you go to school for that?' and his character responds, 'No. I was kicked out of school for that.'
This scene and the underlying, probably unintentional, meaning of it sticks with me. For context, I'm not that talented at anything no matter how many hours I dedicate to it, but I've received compliments and more than a couple wistful 'I wish I could find time to do that's from people who've seen me crochet or draw or pole dance or what-have-you. There seems to be this misunderstanding that these things are doable for me because I have a plethora of time and resources or energy others just...don't.
This could not be further from the truth.
I make time to do these things. How? By sacrificing quality and time dedicated to the things society tells me should be the ultimate priority. Example? My crochet work drastically improved after years of false starts and finally finding the right teacher (Youtube) by...taking it to certain lectures with me in college. I would sit there and work on it even if it was large and took up my whole lap rather than taking notes. I still participated in class discussion. I still took my tests and did my essays (when ADHD and perfectionism didn't prevent me from turning in boring crap nobody gave a damn about). Classmates would look at me like I was insane, but not a single professor bothered me about it because my grades and class participation were solid.
Same thing with work. My current job is...well, I need money like many of you and 'beggars can't be choosers' yadda yadda. The point is, I have a lot of downtime in between duties and assignments, most of which only have to be done on a monthly basis. So I write. Fuck, I've written nearly three books worth of words since starting here nearly two years ago. One of which I did in a month (i was going for sterilization surgery consultation and wrote up 100 reasons and elaborations why i needed this surgery, just in case). And I draw. If anyone sees me at it (my back faces the door and there's high foot traffic by our office -_-), they don't say boo to me because I get my work done (and some of theirs too, lbr) and growing up with strict parents made swapping tabs and hiding chat rooms child's play. Thank Hephaestus for Firefox and adblockers.
I'm also not close with the majority of my blood family in the emotional or geographical sense. No real obligations there. Friends? The majority of them are...well, here. I regularly talk to and interact with 2 whole people in 2 different states. Even the effort of trying to meet more isn't a priority to me even though I make shallow attempts a couple of times a year. I'm not close to any coworkers either because I never feel I can trust them due to problems with gossipy coworkers in the past and, ofc, the current climate of people playing shoot-em-up when work pushes them past their breaking point.
Make no mistake, I am taking a risk doing these things. I risk write-ups and firing and dying alone and all kinds of shit...because I'd rather be doing art. Something I am never going to be able to live off of so I have to steal time from other things to be able to do it. When I go home, I barely have the energy to cook, clean, run errands, and do some meatsuit maintenance before I have to come back the next day. There have been so many times I've fallen asleep before I could get even partway through what I planned for the night, right at my computer or next to my sketch book.
I have to snatch back the time taken from me, there is no other recourse. Lunch breaks are not enough when we even get them (in OH, employers are not legally obligated to provide those. found that shit out at a factory i used to work at where i also wrote fanfic in a notebook between machine unloading). There are zero guarantees of a better afterlife or reward for continued suffering in this life and maybe it's the neurodivergency talking, but I refuse to waste more of it than I already have pretending the things I am forced to do are inherently better or more fulfilling than the shit I want to do.
TL;DR All this is really just to say: get sneakier. STEAL time back where you can. Else you're just going to keep wishing for more time you're never going to get.

Put On Your Raincoats | Wild Things II (De Renzy, 1986)
I did not watch this so I could make a “We have Wild Things 2 (2004) at home” joke, because I haven’t seen that movie and this seems to be better liked by my Letterboxd circle going by the average ratings. So if anything, whenever I watch that, I might make a “We have Wild Things 2 (1986) at home” joke. Which probably won’t be for a while. Because it looks bad. Also I haven’t seen Wild Things (1998) yet.
Anyway, if you’re watching it for the usual reasons one watches these things, the performers are in fine form and the energy level is nicely varied both across and within scenes, so as to keep things from becoming repetitive. I do think the premises of the vignettes here are on average not as strong as in the earlier entry. The first one presented something of a twist or at least a novel arc with each of its vignettes, so that there was some surprise in how they played out. Here…let’s take the first segment, where Joanna Storm tells us about the importance of water in California as she tends to her garden. I am not a gardening expert so I cannot vouch for how much of a green thumb she has, but the garden looked green enough in the transfer I watched this on. (Also, I might be mistaken, but one of the plants looked like it could be the wacky tobaccy. The devil’s lettuce. Marry-hoo-wana. But I’ll keep that to myself as I don’t want Joanna Storm getting in trouble with Johnny Law.) So then she mentions some hunky guy comes up and delivers two big water bottles to her every day. So then the guy comes up, and she just straight up has sex with her. Which is fine, I think they should do what makes them happy, but there’s no twist to this. It’s perfectly possibly she found him attractive, but the movie doesn’t really set this up. The guy is already bringing her water, so it’s not like she’s fucking him for transactional reasons. I dunno, I needed more in the way of motivation. The scene is still super hot, by the way.
This one is hosted by Kari Foxx, who comes across as a lot more polished than Jill Ferrar in the original. Her style is more in line with John Leslie in Ball Busters, in that she keeps bringing up the phrase from the title in her dialogue, although she uses a generally accepted definition. (Unfortunately, she doesn’t go the Deathstalker II route and try to work in the entire title. “I’ll have my revenge, and wild things too.”) She even gets a segment of her own, with Leslie no less, which makes this something of a King Kong vs. Godzilla of loop carrier hosts. I will say that I missed the giddy, “let’s wing it” energy that Ferrar brought in the earlier movie, where half the fun is that she can’t seem to keep a straight face.
Anyway, I just rambled on about how the sketches aren’t quite as good and I didn’t like the hosting style quite as much either, so to keep things fair and balanced, here are some highlights:
This is made only a year after the first one, but has way more electro on the soundtrack. Not a complaint, just an observation.
Nikki Charm is cute as a button as she interviews pornstar Joey Silvera to write an article for career week. Among other things, Silvera vents about the difficulties of doing dialogue while mid-coitus and uses a number of football analogies.
Amber Lynn plays a bankrobber who has to relieve Dick Rambone of his blue balls so they can get back to robbing banks. She attempts an accent that seems to slip by the end of every sentence, but let’s just say there are other things to pay attention to. Like her ’30 bankrobber outfit.
Chris Chase’s shorts seem to defy the laws of physics as the inseam seems much too short to hide his equipment.
The lesbian threesome features three performers (Chanel Price, Shanna McCullough and Regine Bardot) who are successively about a foot apart in height. Had this been released a few years later, it could have been reshaped into a pornographic parody of Twins.
John Leslie plays some sort of doctor of sexual dysfunction, but is shown using the bathroom without washing his hands, which I assume is a violation of the Hippocratic Oath. Later he puts on mummy bandages and tries to peek up Kari Foxx’s skirt, before we get a hard cut to the two of them in flagrante delicto. As you can see, De Renzy understands the importance of editing. Foxx mentions she’s a narcissist who gets off on seeing herself in action, which seems like it’s setting up the same collapsing of performer, director and viewer in the Joanna Storm segment of Ball Busters, but the conflation is much less forceful here.

Hi! I’m so excited for the ships!
Okay, so this could get long. Bear with me, please :)
My name is Jaclyn, but close friends call me Jax. I’m 25, and I’m a bartender and aspiring musician and tattoo artist. I work nights, I’m a bit of a night owl (and an insomniac but that’s not applicable lol). I’m 5’4”, petite/slim build, fair skin, blue eyes, dyed-black (with a weird accidental ombré teal blue on the ends) 70’s shag that’s way too long (collarbones-ish?). I have quite a few tattoos and piercings (nostril, septum, multiple ear piercings; a blackbird across my sternum because of the Beatles, a hunter s thompson quote on my ribcage, a floral/fauna sleeve dedicated to my home state, pirate ship and mermaid on left leg to start an ocean sleeve, patchwork sleeve in American trad, etc etc). Usually wearing all-black, pretty standard t-shirt or tank top and jeans paired with vintage military combat boots, paired with a leather or denim jacket.
I try to eat clean, am vegetarian, but also like to veg out. I try to keep things moderate. I do suffer from a Redbull addiction, however (lol). I workout a couple times a week, I do kickboxing and occasionally go to a yoga class or do it at home. I can pack a pretty good punch if I have to—and I could share some stories lol.
I’m pretty quiet, personality-wise. Really guarded (lol) so I can come off as standoffish but once I get comfortable around someone, I open up and can be a bit of a ball-buster. I have a really sarcastic, dry, even crass sense of humor. I swear like a sailor—unfortunately, even more so in inappropriate situations. I’m stupidly stubborn, opinionated to the verge of argumentative, brutally honest (I refuse to sugarcoat anything), but also pensive and decently conversational—I really enjoy talking about the deeper sides of life and have the tendency to spur on debates or the like when in trusted company/close friends, given that I withhold my opinions unless I know they’re going to at least be given a chance. My love language is quality time tied with words of affirmation, I’m a Cancer sun, and an INFP myers-Briggs type. I like to describe myself as bone-cuttingly realistic with tints of pessimism (if you squint) (lol).
I really enjoy reading, currently rereading Slaughterhouse Five and up next is Dave Grohl’s autobiography. I enjoy drawing with charcoal when I’m just sketching for leisure, but when I’m drawing to practice my skills or working with second skin, I can sit at my desk for hours, researching different styles and techniques. Same thing with music. I’m really polishing my craft with guitar right now, and trying to teach myself at-home production, as a singer-songwriter. I’m a novice drummer as well, and have years with the keys under my belt on top of that. I’m almost entirely done with an EP that I’m hoping to independently release by the end of the year. I also like to go on runs when need be, and I love to travel. If I could get paid to travel while working, that would be the absolute best option for me. (My dream is to buy a van and just like…travel around the states, sightsee, tattoo and play shows. Suuuuper realistic, but hey, it’s the dream.)
I love all types of music, but really love the 90s and have been on a grunge kick as of late, but I’ll really listen to anything under the umbrella of rock, to be honest. Lightning Crashes by Live, She Talks to Angels by Black Crowes and Motorcycle Drive By by Third Eye Blind have all been heavily in my rotation lately. I adore concerts, and feel the most alive while in attendance or preforming. I just have a deep appreciation for art in general, but music really does it for me.
Hopefully this wasn’t too long, once I got started I just didn’t really stop? Anyway, I apologize! Look forward to seeing who you think would be compatible with me (lmao) :) thank you!
Oh this was a hard one! I jumped around as I read through this but ultimately I think I would ship you with Danny!
Jax is such a kickass nickname I'm JEALOUS.
You sound like the type of person I would like to see him date. I'm all for Danny having an alt GF/Partner.
Danny would enjoy your taste in music as I feel he likes a wide range of things as well. He would be over the moon to show you new bands to listen to! You would be his go to person to just relax and be normal. I feel Danny would also enjoy a quieter personality compared to the extroverted ones he's dated before. He doesn't have a lot of silence in his life so I feel this would be crucial for him.

Story. Crystallization
Previous | Next
[ID: Nine digitally sketched panels in black, white, and green.]
[Panel 1: Vivian Becile stands adjusting her goggles, which have lights and lenses that are lit up green. Her glasses hang from a chain around her neck. She says, "Typical greedy Buster. Sent a crystallizer when a bullet would be more effective."]
[Panel 2: Top down shot of a laboratory in Walter Manor. Scratch is laying unconscious on a table, while The Skull holds the crystalizer out to Vivian. Hare and The Jack sit on a bench to the side; Tatters is hiding under the bench and Dee is stood up next to Hare. The Skull asks Vivian, "'Crystallizer?'" Vivian explains, "That dart injects a catalyst that forces the spirit to manifest, turning the body to Rock Candy. Your friend should already be dead, actually (ellipses)"]
[Panel 3: Vivian, her goggles now lifted onto her forehead, looks over at Hare and Dee and asks, "What's with that mannequin?" Hare glares and says, "This is my sister, Dee." Vivian says, "Ohhh-kay. Well, there's something loosely attached to her, probably a ghost. It's keeping your friend's spirit from crystallizing."]
[Panel 4: The Skull, looking resigned, asks Vivian, "Ghosts are real?" Vivian answers, "Oh yeah, ghosts are (italics) super (plain text) real." The Skull says, "Great. Can you help him?"]
[Panel 5: Vivian puts her glasses on and adjusts them, looking off thoughtfully as she says, "Well, maybe. We can't get the catalyst out, so we'll need a second source of Green Matter to neutralize it. But we don't have any here, and Green Cores like yours are notoriously hard to drawn from."]
[Panel 6: The Skull opens the top of his shirt, making the inverter over his Core more visible. He says, "(ellipses) What if you used this?" Vivian asks from off panel, "What is it?" The Skull says, "Heard it called an 'inverter.'"]
[Panel 7: Riker, holding a mug of hot coffee in both hands, chimes in, saying, "Ja (em-dash) I mean, the guy who made it said it could redirect the Core's power. Could it work?" Vivian bites her lip and lowers her chin nervously as she says, "I can try. (ellipses) But (ellipses)"]
[Panel 8: The Skull looks down at Vivian knowingly and asks, "(ellipses) Will I die?" Vivian responds from off panel, "I don't know. You'll lose a few years, at least." The Skull says, "I see."]
[Panel 9: The Skull, his upper face off the edge of the panel, asks, "How soon can we get started?" Behind him, The Jack and Hare look at him in alarm (two large exclamation points). End ID]
