♪ It's time for Fish Mollusc Fact Friday! ♪

Dumbo octopuses are finned octopuses characterised by the two large flaps above their eyes - these resemble the ears of Dumbo the Elephant, which they are named after!

They are the deepest-living of all known octopuses, and move slowly along the seafloor by using their arms and flaps. Unlike most other octopuses, they do not have an ink sac due to there being fewer predators in the deep sea!

We laugh, sure, but we both know we're not ok.

headcanon that people of the islands sleep schedule is like, four hours later than average.

they wake up at mid day, and sleep well past midnight. kids begging their parents on weekends to pleeaaase please let them step up just a little longer to watch the sun rise. early-riser visitors / tourists having to adapt to their horrid schedule because stars forbid theyre up and about at 10:30.

My 2024 art in review

All my pieces though-out the months and then my favorite Otto pieces throughout the months!!

Everyone should do this 👁️👁️

[phantombre]

Oh, man...

Nope. Not me getting flustered by my own fucking drawing. Not at all. ;)

I've been wanting to do this piece for a long time. It is personally one of the more chilling moments in the game. I swear to God, when he says that line, I can hear him smiling. And not a genuine, happy smile, no... A sinister, unnerving smile that is meant to be a threat. Hopefully, I've managed to convey that emotion well.

TotK DLC idea!

The screen is black. You don’t hear anything for a long time. Then, faintly, in the distance, you can hear it.

Link. Link. Open your eyes.

While the line echoes familiarity, the voice does not.

Or. Well. It does. Because while it isn’t Zelda, it’s a familiar man’s voice speaking gently, so gently you almost don’t recognize it because there’s no way he ever spoke like this in the main game.

But he is now. And instead of a golden light being the first image you see before the screen shows Link awakening… you see gloom floating in the air. The image cuts to a Hylian waking up who… doesn’t look like Link from TotK?? He’s different, still small in stature, with slightly tanner skin, platinum light blonde hair, and red eyes. But… something’s wrong with his forehead. There’s a weird line on it.

This new character you apparently are gonna be playing in the DLC blearily blinks his eyes open, clearly groggy and too weak to really move. But then that line on his forehead moves a hair, it splits apart, and you realize it’s a freaking eye, red and yellow and it’s like the ones on gloom hands and oh gosh what the hell is it doing on his forehead—

Link realizes something is off and his eyes blow wide, his hands reach for his forehead and he screams in agony and terror, only for someone to scoop him into a hug to soothe him.

And suddenly you realize why that voice was eerily familiar.

It’s Ganondorf. He resurrected you from the era of the Imprisoning War. You, who have a history with him and his family. You, who he wants to protect, who he views as his kid, who he calls a prince and says he’ll keep you safe by controlling your body with his dark magic if he has to.

Welcome to Tears of the Kingdom: Hero’s Shadow.

You have to play a long gone Hero who was resurrected. Ganondorf, who is still recovering his strength in preparation for killing the current Hero, tasks you with finding your betrothed, his daughter, as well as his wife. They’re buried somewhere in the Depths like you were. He wants you to find their burial sites so he can use his secret stone to resurrect them like he did you, and control them as well. Which is doubly bad when you realize his wife was the original Sage of Lightning. He gives you free reign to wander once you go through a tutorial (he tests you to see if you’ve recovered enough strength), because he knows you love wandering and collecting things. Your own personal objective, however, is trying to help Hyrule from the Depths, to break free from Ganondorf’s control, because Link would rather set himself on fire than let Ganondorf resurrect and control the love of his life and his mother-in-law. Your best hope is to find shards of the shattered Master Sword to try and stab the eye on Dark Link’s forehead and break the control Ganondorf has on you. Until you can, though, the monsters are your allies, you can teleport across the Depths by manifesting out of the gloom created by gloom hands (just like what Phantom Ganon does), and the world below is your oyster. If you get too close to sword shards when gloom hands are nearby, Ganondorf can see your attempt and immediately takes control of your body, and no matter what button you press Link just walks back to Ganondorf’s location and stays there until you get a chance to try again.

You start with three hearts, all empty looking like when gloom hurts you, and if you get injured they just shatter. Whenever they all shatter, you respawn at Ganondorf’s location because his gloom hands came and rescued you from dying. The only way you can get more hearts is by collecting poes and offering them to the statues in the Depths. You can communicate with the spirits of soldiers, who may give you combat tips or info about the area. If you gain enough of Ganondorf’s trust, he’ll let you command monsters, and he might even let you wander the Surface (under his supervision) during a blood moon.

You learn of Link’s and Ganondorf’s history through discovering ancient relics/texts that trigger memories. This connection between you and Ganondorf stems back to time before the war, well over ten thousand years ago. Link was engaged to Ganondorf’s daughter, but during the Imprisoning War the family fought against the demon king. Ganondorf did love his family, but he loved power more. Link sacrificed himself, letting himself get mortally wounded to save Rauru from a killing blow. Gan held him as he died, and it allowed Link to both beg him to stop and stab him in the heart with a light shard. The shard didn’t kill him, but it was what Rauru connected with when he hit him in the chest, allowing him to seal Ganondorf away. Ganondorf still wants the world, but his love for his family is still present, though now twisted, so he thinks he can control Link and everyone else with his dark magic in order to keep them safe and in line. Once the threat of the current Hero is eliminated, the world will be his, and his family will be safe. As such, he treats you, Link, the player, like a stubborn child, reeling you in, but does so in a horrific way, torturing Link by controlling him.

You have to break free of this and stop him, and the only hope you have is the distant call of a sword spirit…

as much as I enjoy the idea of the infected in tgwdlm having eerie blue slime oozing out of them at all times, I think it's more terrifying if they don't, because that way, they still look like they could be the humans they once were. they still look like they could be saved. charlotte can fall for sam's ploy. bill can hope until the final moment that his daughter is still in there, somewhere. emma can hold paul tightly until he begins to sing.

I only just remembered I was drawing this yesterday like, 15 minutes ago, added the lighting and figured good enough

To be honest there’s not really much to say on this. I was only drawing it because I had a dentist appointment yesterday and needed something to draw while waiting, and then I drew a bit more when watching g1 yesterday

To be honest I’m not really sure why I stopped yesterday, I think it might have been I was just too lazy to figure out a proper light source for my shading. I started with that today, added the lighting and tweaked some of the shading, but it’s probably still inconsistent in some areas

There’s really not much to say on this, because as stated I just drew it because I can, and because I wanted to use the 6B pencil as lineart because I really like it (it’s also the sketching brush)

I made the gun Megs to make it more interesting than just Optimus holding a normal gun. That’s one thing I can’t help but love about gun Megatron; you can just have a character holding a gun, and in the tags you’ll see Megatron listed, because he is the gun. Call the form stupid but he’s hiding in plain sight, a true Robot in Disguise. Also I just think it’s funny

And uh, yeah
