#I should go to bed it’s late

[freckledfenrir]

so my mind is just wandering like it tends to do at 2am in the morning and I just realized Todoroki,Zuko and Doll all have burn scars on their left eye. Like I can’t think of many characters who only have a section of their face that’s been scarred and the three that I can it’s all on the left eye and it’s all from burns. Like why is it always the left eye?!?

they all should just go to group therapy together. I think it’d be healing for them to meet people with similar injuries and scars. I swear though just thinking about what these poor children went through makes my blood boil.

Time's more serious about everything because he's been traumatized by his adventures.

I don't know if I'm going to be able to explain this properly because it's late but gosh dangit I'm gonna try.

The P in PTSD is there for a reason. The repercussions of trauma don't fully hit until sometime after the life-threatening situation is over. Depending on the duration and severity of the traumatic event/s, this can take years to happen, and decades to heal from.

The rest of the boys are still relatively young and haven't spent too much time "out of the action", as it were. Time still works for the Royal Family, sure, but he's mostly settled down and left that old, adventuring life behind him. He's grown out of his adventure-seeking youth (or maybe something happened with the FD mask???) and all he wants to do now is live on a farm and be with his wife.

Meanwhile, the rest of the boys are relatively fresh of their adventures. Even the older ones are still in their hot-blooded youth; despite all the action they've seen, they're still ready for more. They're all still in "hero-ing mode". They haven't reached the P in PTSD yet.

But Time has. And he reached it at a much younger age than the rest of them will.

Time's mandatory heroic adventures started and ended as a young child. On top of that, his adventures were among if not the creepiest: skulltula house, Dampe, the forest/well/jabu's belly/shadow temples, Majora, dead hands. Add to that being forced back and forth through puberty multiple times, and the guilt of opening the sacred realm for Gannondorf, then having to frantically clean up his own mess, all at the tender age of nine... only to be sent back to a time where no one even remembers what he's done and he can't go home. (Don't even get me started on the events of Majora's Mask.)

Time is traumatized. And he's being forced back into the kind of environment that brought about that trauma. He's not going to break, because he's a Link, and therefore cannot break by definition, but don't expect him to be as jovial and lighthearted about everything as his younger companions.

He has returned to his own personal hell—the one he thought he'd left far behind him.

oh boy !! ! ! ! !!! ! thANK y0u all for the kind words on my last art posts. you all get it and i was/still am so happy about it

as promised, here's some close-ups of the comic for image quality's sake, and other screenshots i rescued from the community whiteboard (and something else)

first up another sketch of mystery gender-ambiguous being. (please send me more name ideas for them if you got one- i like to hear em! (reminder it's the side character that appeared for <10 seconds in AvM Ep. 30))

a few fav scenes

emotional support cwab

they weren't meant for this purpose exactly, but i do have countless "fluffy sticks" loose in my notes and homework sheets from the school years.

papery critter.

even when i wasn't confident in fur or feathers, they helped me practice posing and create some satisfying gradients/flowing poses. (im a sucker for good tail poses) (oh yay! i found a good pic...)

and finally, little sneak peak for you for reading so far ;3

i realized that whiteboardfox is pretty great for my working needs. simple and to the point and all. feels nice with the mouse and the tablet.

so i started hashing out a big project idea just to see if it holds up and

... hear me out guys work with me here. Mr Komos in the monster high movie is implied to be the son of The Edward Hyde/Henry Jekyll, right? Great. Thats established. Cool. So.

Holt and Jackson. In g1 he's the great grandson of EH/HJ. We're going to disregard the great part because the point is more that he's descended from, rather than directly their son. Anyways.

I propose to you: Holt/Jackson being related to Mr Komos. There's no precedent for this beyond the shared scaritage, but also: It would allow them to give Jackson and Holt a new conflict since Clawdeen has the human/monster thing now.

(The conflict in question being attending a school his parent/relative tried to like. Murder. As well as the legacy EH/HJ left by being shunned by monsters and humans and then straight up killed. Have Jackson be what Komos wasn't, where instead of straight up revenge he wants just like... idk, change, for the better, yk? Let him and Clawdeen work together or something.)

This is probs incoherent btw its 2am and the thohght came to my brain in about 30 seconds. So my idea? Half baked. Idc I needed to share the thought with The People. Maybe someone will be inspired by it who has a bigger brain than me? Idk. If anyone sees this feel free to steal my ideas tbh. Idk if its a good idea bc im half consciohs but yk.
