in my dream job era
#I could not love it more#it’s just the perfect blend#of types of work#today I was in back to back meetings but all of them were useful and engaging and energizing#tomorrow more meetings#where I get to do a lot of asking questions and thinking with people to identify issues and articulate priorities#and solve problems#and then like most of the rest of the week will just be like#doing sustained thinking & strategizing & research#to figure out how to flesh out and implement the ideas we generated#it’s just perfect!!!!!!!!#the thing I have learned about myself professionally is like#I just love and thrive on and NEED a ton of people contact#especially the kind where you’re working on a project together#but I also really need quiet no interruptions thinking time where I can shut off email/teams/whatever#and just like#synthesize… reflect… research… consolidate… experiment… reflect some more#anyway every time I see that meme that’s like ‘I have no dream job I do not dream of labor’#I’m like CANNOT relate#I was a creature made to work#but like#work that is deeply fulfilling and values aligned and pushes you to constantly be learning#etc etc etc#anyway… THRIVING#what a relief after 10 months of being like maybe I’ll never use my brain again

I like to think breaking the canary curse via dying in the void had some effects on Lizzie
#ldshadowlady#wild life smp#secret life smp#technically since she broke the curse there#trafficblr#smth smth breaking the curse means taking it upon yourself- smth smth the miners need a bird so they'll catch another one#I've been wanting to draw pink canary Lizzie ever since she broke the curse and the urge to combine void and shadow creature made me go ins#I wanted to draw BAM or as i would have caption them: Team Canary. But I had too many thoughts on Lizzie design so its just her#Can you tell I am very normal about Lizzie shadowlady? yes i draw her a lot and made her creature but thats normal behavior trust me trust#it was either canary seablings or aquatic seablings w/ whale Lizzie but idk how to work in whale so bird she is#my art#the whole breaking the curse means becoming the curse is very beast!wirt to me but its october so its fitting ig.

This joke came to me in a fit of laughter (ALT description provided :3!)
#superman#batman#the flash#flash#wally west#bruce wayne#clark kent#justice leauge unlimited#justice league#abruptly I was hit with this joke when I made one abt myself being always 2 seconds away from crying and realised it worked oh so well#i had so much fun drawing this#esp bc i was really trying to find a good medium between my style and the jlu style#super blocky but also a bit more realistic than jlu#batman is so shape and i fucking love it#literally i just drew his outline i didn't even bother with the rest of it#gremlin fucking creature. man who is just an object#this is my first time ever doing like an actual attempt at dc-#homegrown art

Hello I love your art!!! I was reading through your changeling au and Felix mentions that fae are creatures of mirth. They literally need attention to survive. But what kind of attention? I guess I'm wondering because Adrien has been in the public eye for a while now, but has been personally neglected for even longer. What does that mean for him? Is he starving? Is he in danger of dying? Does he even know it? (I assume not given he doesn't even know he's Fae).
If he is starving / in danger of starving who is the first to realize this?
it depends on the mirth, on the attention, on what it is they seek. Without making things too complicated - I don't like to define everything into neat little boxes after all, there's fun in nuance - Felix is just explaining from his experience, the Fae he was with tended to be "entertained" by certain aspects of their playing, which was the mirth that kept them relevant. Relevancy more than anything is really what keeps their wheels greased.
In Adrien's case though, the reason he's cloying for so many names and to have so many thralls and attendants is because he SHOULD be a more social creature and has been kept woefully alone. He is kinda starving in the way a fae starves - he's relevant, but only in an image his father constructs OF him, which means it isn't REALLY him - and he has no one to play with. No friends, no lovers, and no rivals, makes a very sad fae
#replies#did this make sense ? I have very specific lore in my brain for how this shit works#and it can be sort of confusing to parse#starving doesn't work the same for fae as it does for people#being creatures of mirth#its why they like sweet foods generally. they dont eat it to eat#they eat it to taste something sweet#they take people's names to have people to play with#to feed their desire for entertainment and relevancy#how do i put this another way... anyone in the crowd have adhd? or the tisms? you know hyperfixations#like REAL hyperfixations. not just “I'm interested in this”#I mean “I am legitimately unable to focus on anything BUT this one thing”#“I have made this thing apart of my personality and I need it to survive and I know everything about it and I NEED to talk to someone it”#imagine you exist. but you're the hyperfixation#and you exist... MORE. in a real way. when people focus on you. some aspect of you#want to mimic you or are apart of you or are owned by you. now youre more real.#like that.

I think a lot about what kind of conversations Mike and Steve were having prior to season one. Like, Steve is dating Nancy. It’s highly probable that he was over at their house for dinner or to just hang out.
They have to have interacted at some point and I think whatever conversations they had were why Mike thinks Steve is so lame.
#Mike: *mentions a D&D creature*#Steve: What is that some kind of bear?#I personally think that Steve and Nancy started dating really close to the start of season one but there was a one courting period#where Steve was working really hard to convince her to date him#like I think one of the reasons his relationship with Nancy is so impactful is that she’s the first girl that actually made him prove#himself and work for the relationship#steve harrington#mike wheeler#stranger things

Thinkin' 'bout girl Zoro
#doodles#one piece#one piece art tag#roronoa zoro#blackleg sanji#nico robin#cat burglar nami#one piece nami#usopp#one piece usopp#had a discussion about zoro but suddenly girl at work#and then spent longer than was probably necessary on the comic#no usopps were harmed (or made out with) in the making of this nonsense#eventually I'll like. incorporate more of the cast into the nonsense. as is proper#but as with most other things I've got a small group i start with and then the other characters as I get more comfy drawing them#and more faniliar with them in their source material#ah shit i still need to draw the weird chopper dream from the other month too i like drawing that lil creature#ANYWAY here u go take this thing I don't have much more to ramble about tonight

I need to keep Survival Isles on this blog but I keep forgetting because they are so silly--
Anyway the recent posts about the Wet Cat Trio™ on my main reminded me I had this stupid idea yesterday that I wanted to draw.
( Cryptid Jax belongs to @sunifixation and Remains Jax belongs to @rorydrawsandwrites )
The thing I'm referencing:
#art#survival isles jax#remains jax#cryptid jax#I made this in MS Paint to keep that theme going and stole the color from Rory#wet cat trio#i gave them a tag#do with that what you will#remains looks so fucking ugly tho /silly#when i saw the depression creature i knew that had to be him#it was an obvious choice#isles and cryptid however#both adhd and autism worked for them in my mind so i had to ask a friend for a second opinion#im glad i did because they are both so stupid looking /aff#i want them all dead

I decided to be silly with memes, especially in the realization that a lot of some "antagonists" (if you can call some of them that) keep having connections to this very specific dead guy.
#honkai impact 3rd#honkai impact#hi3#honkai star rail#otto apocalypse#void archives#luocha#hi3 moriarty#honkai memes#memes#like otto was only directly involved in like one of these creatures actions#and yet somehow we've archived bronya levels of lookalikes#made this meme from scratch aka i couldn't figure how the meme generator work#drawing does not belong to me#morose talks

I carried this thing for MONTHS with the EXPRESS PURPOSE of putting Raphael in it (knowing full well Larian wouldn't let me do that, mechanically) and I had one major miscalculation.
| First | | Previous | | Next |
[[ All Croissant Adventures (chronological, desktop) ]]
[[ All Croissant Adventures (app) ]]
#Ok I'm gonna ramble in the tags about all this get ready:#I KNEW Larian wouldn't let me actually pull this off but I PROMISE you that stupid flask sat in my inventory since the moment I grabbed it#WAITING for when I could write this little bit about putting Raphael in it#I even threw it at him in the fight with a 30% hit chance and it succeeded so I considered that Larian giving me permission to say it workd#But as I was reading up on it again when I was sketching this I saw the bit about native planes and I cried LMAO. But it's dnd-#so I rewrote is as it would've happened in a game. U kno.#Also I have been waiting to use that fox line for SO LONG bc of Croissant's dad being a fox-like fey creature#So much backstory that's slotted in PERFECTLY with the BG3 narrative#Anyway absolutely wild that we managed to take out this ancient powerful devil - and on the first try!#Lae'zel with a potion of speed did WORK. Gale came in clutch with hold monster. Astarion gave Raph stage fright. Croissant made him dance#(I'm pretty sure he just doesn't have a dance animation in ascended form lol)#Hope didn't even need to use divine intervention - this party is terrifying#Croissant hated him but in the end I loved Raphael I see why all you people like him#bg3#baldur's gate 3#bg3 spoilers#act III spoilers#house of hope#croissant adventures#tav#raphael#lae'zel#iron flask#comics#ALSO shoutouts to you if you both noticed and knew which worthikids animation I borrowed the expression in panel 5 from

my brother as a beast
#his full pseudonym is grayscale/gray so i made him a grayscale sphinx :o)#i had a little fun with the colors on this one. was a little scared of using the blue outlines but i think it works#he does look kind of gloomy because of his bangs and resting face but hes actually way more social than me#hes talked to more people in his class than i have since i started. god damn#paws are more long and nimble because his fingers are long and lankier than mine#the long fur is a stylistic choice and because he wears thick/baggy sweaters a lot#my art#myart#creature design#character design#graysona#gray#sphinx#beasts#fur#furry art
