Hello~! I would love to know how lion hybrid! bakugou reacts when he finally sees you after all those years.

I have a hunch that he reacts to your scent first more than anything 😊😊

(part i here!)

hello !!! and thank you so much for asking !!!

yes, that's exactly what i was thinking too, and what i was going for in my head when i was writing about you getting weaker and weaker the stronger the winds seem to blow your way. I'm not sure how I came up with this, but i imagine Bakugo is so tormented and so disturbed by not being with you that over the years, he's just started constantly scenting as if that will draw you to him somehow.........

Except his scent isn't really.... lustful or homey or attractive to you, much less to anyone, because it's actually DISGUSTING, and reeks (because of his prowess and status) of his loneliness, anger and grief, which is why it's strong enough to waft over the whole territory of which he controls.

As for finally coming face to face... I was imagining that… as soon as you figure out why the smell of the air was affecting you so badly… you immediately try to hide, staying on the outskirts of your new pride to avoid any possibility of seeing Bakugo before you can secure a new pack to help you leave town (and also try to get used to the oppressiveness of living under his scent, which is horrific yet still the scent of your mate, after all)…

At the same time however, being so close to Bakugo after so many years is causing him to react as well, except… he’s not sure why he’s start feeling even worse than usual? He’s gone from his usual irritable and insatiable self to… antsy and nervous? Your leaving left him unstable, alongside the fact that he barely remembers what having a mate feels like in the first place, much less going through a genuine rut… but something is beginning to pool deep in his belly and make him absolutely… feral.

I’m not sure if I like the idea of one of your old pack mates finding out you’ve re-joined and accidentally spilling the beans to Bakugo (kirishima core, even though when he spots and approaches you, you make him swear on his life not to tell), or having him figure it out on his own from stalking the land (he mistook his new urges to protect and save as meaning there was an intruder close by)… but either way, I think it ends up in this huge hunt for you, where Bakugo ransacks the town trying to pin you down and you end up running for all you’re worth.

Really, Bakugo just wants to talk. Wants to know what he did wrong, why you left, what he can do to make you stay and what you can do for him, now, too… but there’s something about his condition—the scruffy mane and blurry eyes and rashy skin—that makes you afraid, sends you back ten years in time and reminds you of the man who didn’t mourn your daughter and caused you to leave in the first place…

But of course, those feelings aren’t enough to stop him from pursuing you… and when he finally manages to pin you down (by physically holding your body after this long exhausting chase. Houses are blown through, water and blood is spilled, skin is torn), it’s just this crazy reunion that’s half hormonal response (your brains: 💥💥⚡️⚡️🌈🌈⚡️⚡️💥💥💥🎊🎊🎉🎉🎊🎉🎉🎉🎊🎊😡😡😡😡⚡️⚡️💥) and half… incomprehensible screaming at each other until Bakugo is dragged away from you by his closest alphas… and nothing ends up being resolved.

(There’s even more drama after that, though, duh!!! Because now you have to adjust being together again as if the both of you aren’t entirely different people now than you were then… but the entire pride is desperate for you to stay and maybe even… re-bond? (Not that you ever stopped being bonded but, you know…) so that they don’t have to live in uncomfortable fear anymore…

Not that Bakugo is planning on letting you go again anytime soon…)

Man I’ve followed you a while and had somehow no idea you were the artist for the Green Rider covers! It’s so fantastic to find an artist whose work you enjoy has worked on something you love.

I find it amusing that followers from different social media sites know me for different things. My early dA followers probably remember me most for those covers (can't believe it's been so long, over a decade in fact). Plus, it's hard to find covers in a sea of random posts on tumblr!

And thank you! It's been an unexpected but welcome journey, and I look forward to working on all future titles in the series. (Maybe I'm being ridiculous but it kinda feels like I cornered the market on winged horses done up in a crosshatch style...)

— IF SHE BLINDED YOU WITH SCIENCE, MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN WEARING YOUR LAB GOGGLES

had the always delightful opportunity to commission the incomparably talented @derelictheretic for a pin-up style portrait of my girl jenna, and when i tell y’all i am in absolute AWE. i have been losing my mind at the gorgeous coloring and all the little details on this from the moment i laid eyes upon it. dean is a genius and a delight to work with, i highly recommend grabbing a commission from him if you ever have a chance! also, alternate coloring below cut as a treat:3 (and you can check out the jestiny pin-up here.)

I just have to say I LOVE the Instant Synchronised Murder Faces that Fai and Kurogane are whipping out any time anything even slightly unusual happens. It’s EXTREMELY warranted for where they are, and also just slightly hilarious whenever it’s like… a door opening. 

BUT INSTANT SYNCHRONISED MURDER FACES I SHALL HAVE!

I suppose you could say the giant doors they had to open in Koryo were the tiniest bit foreshadowing this moment. Oh it’s even the same battle party too! Sakura didn’t come with them that time either, so it was just the four of them storming a giant forbidding castle controlled by an evil wizard who was watching them magically from a distance.

If there is acid anywhere inside the ruinsI’m allowed to start yelling. 

Oh! Also! In Koryo the inside corridor of the castle had a repeating hallway - kind of like a time loop, but a far simpler one. And when they visited the Memory version of the Clow Ruins in Recourt the hallways also randomly changed in size and shape, as if time and space were unstable - which is far more relevant now than it ever was before.

I can't believe they've done this.

Cutting down on my usage of character ai for the environment. Feel bad seeing stuff like The California fires and everything. (LET'S BE CLEAR I NEVER USED CHARACTER AI TO WRITE ANYTHING FAN WORKS, ESSAYS , OR OTHERWISE. WAS LITERALLY JUST TALKING TO MY COMFORT CHARACTERS. I NEVER GENERATED IMAGES EITHER). But I'm trying to cut down with even using it almost never because of environmental concerns

[vt-scribbles]

Something seriously lacking in my art is the ability to tell a story in a single illustration.

I've gotten so used to drawing my characters standing around doing random things that I've never practiced telling a full tale/putting implications into my pieces that require more thinking/looking.

It also comes from a lower amount of details in my works by default [since I like to get pieces done fast], but I'm tired of using that as an excuse.

No, brain, I am not going to rewatch A Place Further Than The Universe right now. I've already had a good cathartic cry for the evening, I will gain nothing from this endeavor.

Hi it's me again and I have more music induced LiS brainrot to share

I discovered Lullaby For Grown Ups by Secret Garden today and even though it's very "cheesy musical number" coded I cannot for the life of me stop imagining Rachel singing this to a tired and weary Max who mumbled something about wanting her to sing something bc she thinks her voice is pretty. Rachel doesn't really strike me as a musical person but I think she'd indulge in it just to soothe Max into getting Some Fucking Sleep and it would actually work. Chloe comes into the room mid-song and is just standing there in awe at her singing voice

The first few verses are basically just Rachel telling Max that she sees her struggle and she doesn't have to wear the world on her shoulders, and reassuring her that everything will be fine. Maybe Max doesn't believe it at this time but she indulges in it because she's so tired and wants it to be true, even if just for a moment. Then the last verse is almost a confession from Rachel that she herself Goes Through It too, and that she gets it on some level. And then by the end of it Max has actually been lulled to sleep and Rachel and Chloe are just quietly looking at each other like 'omg I can't believe that worked'

SDGHDSKDS I just need Marrow!Max to be comforted, girlie needs to be shown so much affection and also needs REST.

Not that I'd expect anything less from Murph at this point but these flashbacks are fucking devestating

”Looks like a dwarf to me”

“yes sir.”

OUGH

"Don't look away"

I remember another kid trying to explain what hell is like and she was "it's a pain bigger than any pain you ever felt and it never stops" and like in retrospect , why would she know that 🤔 alternatively, that's just how kids are when they're raised catholic ig

[youareinlove]

i know we are not supposed to talk about that now but he just never got it and will never get it, i’m glad she left

(this was from yesterday if anyone’s confused)

yes, that was kinda my main takeaway honestly. like at first i was a little mad (now i’m just 😒 at most) but it’s so clear based on what he said that he just. doesn’t get it. which is fine because it is what it is but like, wow, he really didn’t get it at all
