————————《《FAQ》》————————

This post will be updated over time.

Main artist account: @centfornothing (both tumblr, twitter and soon bluesky)

Currently, i am very busy with university, and I'm not gonna be free any time soon...(except holidays, obviously) BUT I am really trying to put at least SOME time into what I've created here, so there's that. (Hopefully I'll survive all that)

— Usage of Stitch/Fanart

1. Q: Can I create fanart of Stitch?

A: Yes, I'd be more than happy if you do! ^^

Also, do not be shy to tag me! I will, from time to time, check if i was tagged somewhere.

2. Q: Can I use your character in my comic/animation/fanfiction?

A: Yep! I don't see why not.

3. Q: Can I ship *insert character name here* with Stitch?

A: Sure, have fun! But I sure do hope that the character in question is not a child. I am strongly against it.

4. Q: Can I create NSFW🔞 content of Stitch?

A: Yes, unless it involves children/incest. Do not draw stuff like that.

5. Q: Can I voice act your comics?

A: Any day!! Just don't forget to put credits, everything else is up to you! ^^

— NOT ALLOWED

I'm being repetitive here, but whatever. These are the only things I don't want people to do with my character, and I hope you understand why.

DO NOT create content depicting Stitch engaging with children in sexual manner.

DO NOT create content depicting Stitch endorsing incest/racism/f*scism/n*zism or anything similar to that.

As advice, I'd kindly ask you not to create stuff like this at all. Please be a better person and be responsible with what you create and put out there on the internet.

— About asks/questions

Questions that I have already answered won't get a reply.

Not all the questions will get their answers. Either because it's not the time for the answer yet or because it's irrelevant/not a question at all.

If there's too many questions, yours might be missed/might get a late reply(currently i have 70+ questions, no joke, and i just cant answer all of them, especially when there's more of them every day). But don't be shy asking questions anyway!

Other reasons for your questions not getting an answer:

I might be busy because I also have to live a life.

If your question is something like "I love your au sm," then thank you. I really appreciate your kind words, you are making my day💞

I might not want to answer your question for reasons. (Provocative questions, personal questions, etc)

If you are asking something related to YOUR OWN mental health. Please, PLEASE, if you have real problems, do not try to find a solution for them from internet strangers, go and talk to a real, qualified professional.

Please do not vent to me, I am not qualified to offer you help. I wish you the best, please stay safe.

And just a separate point about roleplays. Sorry, but I don't really do them. I can play along to something unserious and small, but whole roleplays are not for me.

— About Stitch

Stitch uses any pronouns, but they/them is a preferred one.

They are aroace.

The place they live in is called "Treatment space"(the info on what it is will be elaborated on sometime later). It is accessible for anyone in Omega Timeline at any given point through a door. But it can also be accessed from anywhere if you have one of 2 special keys: small red key that will create a door for 1 person leading to the Treatment Space or the bigger dark red key that will create a much bigger door, also leading to the Treatment Space(backyard). Keys can be mostly found in Omega Timeline, but some are scattered throughout the Multiverse.

They mimic the voice according to the form they have at the moment. So Sans' voice for a form of Sans, etc.

For all the different parts of plush bodies and clothes, there is a separate big room in Treatment Space.

Stitch doesn't need to sleep, eat, or drink.

Their most preferred forms are Toriel(convenience) and Sans(frequency of use).

The forms they don't like to use the most are the ones that are small(like Temmie, annoying dog, Flowey, etc.)

— The Lore(WIP)

Prologue

Chapter 1: Lucky streak — part 1

— Stitch's forms

I have some forms drawn separately, and some that I drew with some other sketches. I MIGHT be a bit too lazy to draw every from individually for now, so here's what I have:

Papyrus

Muffet

Mettaton

Alphys

Gaster

Monster kid (MK)

Grillby

Frisk and Chara(want to change them)

Toriel(if you can't tell, I like this one a lot)

Asgore, Flowey, Sans, Undyne, some stuff

More info will be added later

Thorins company with a reader who doesn’t fall asleep easily. Like they will lay awake for hours- also I love how you use gifs(●´ω｀●)

Hi Hi Hi Hi! Thank you for the request!!💖 So this one will be short little sentences, but that's because you gave me an idea for a longer sleeping scenario!!!! So, thank you for inspiring me!! 🤩👍 I'll be working on that longer one later this week!

Balin - Balin would gently remind you of the importance of sleep. He would then offer to brush your hair before bed. His fingers, running through your hair, released all your tension. The rhythmic motion, gentle touch, and soft voice would make your eyelids grow heavy. Sleep would come soon after, and Balin would smile, knowing he was able to help. 

Dwalin - Dwalin offered you his cloak, saying it was warmer than the tattered blanket you had. He would drape it over you and quietly watch over you. He wouldn't rest until he knew you were asleep. Once you were, he would gently brush the hair out of your face before going to bed himself.

Óin - Oin instantly started preparing remedies, herbal teas, and other unique blends to help you get to sleep. He would hand them to you with a big smile, saying they would help drift you off to dreamland. He would laugh when you tasted them and grimaced, saying,  "It's not supposed to taste good. It's supposed to work."

Glóin - Gloin would open up to you. He knows how difficult it is to sleep when your family isn't close. He feels the same way. So he would tell you stories about his family, his life back home, and his dreams. It was comforting to know others felt the same way. As you drifted off to sleep, you felt you were getting to know the company better.

Bifur - Bifur noticed you hadn't slept well for a while. So, one night, he would give you a carved wooden charm to hold onto. He would say it promotes good sleep and advises you to keep it on you when it's bedtime. He'd then pull out his matching charm and smile as if saying, "Seems we both have a hard time sleeping."

Bofur - Bofur would stay up with you each night, telling bedtime stories and other crazy tales. He would love to come up with these stories, each one wilder than the last. Seeing you look at him in awe, perched on the edge of your seat and eagerly awaiting the next sentence, would bring him sheer joy.

Bombur - Bombur is such a sweetheart. He'd go out of his way to make you a warm drink before bed. Bombur would carefully select the perfect ingredients that could help you feel cozy, comfortable, and ready to relax. He would bring it to you with a warm smile and offer to sit with you while you enjoyed it. Hopefully, it helped you relax enough for bed.

Ori - Ori would snuggle up next to you and read you his favorite book. He would read each character in a different voice, bringing the characters to life. It would be incredibly relaxing, and he might even draw out scenes from the book as a special treat. 

Dori - Dori would make a fuss. He would get all the pillows and blankets to ensure you are comfortable. He’d arrange everything so they are just right and would even place you in the best spot next to the fire. With a satisfied smile, he'd say, "There you go, all set for a cozy night."

Nori - Being out on the road a lot, Nori has learned a lot of tips and tricks to help get to sleep easier. He knows the best position to sleep on the ground, knows how to keep warm, and highly suggests listening to the fire crackle to help calm down. "Honestly, the best night's sleep is after some 'activities,' if you catch my drift," he says with a wink.

Thorin - He doesn’t try to make a fuss like others. He's the type to keep his feelings to himself, preferring actions over words. Thorin seats himself close to you and hums a dwarven lullaby. It helps him fall asleep, so he does it for you. You want to stay up and listen, but the soothing melody has you asleep within seconds.

Side note: I know this isn't a gif of him singing but I thought it was perfect

Fíli -  Fili would be a little concerned, noticing you were more tired during the day. So the next time it was time to rest, he would move his bed mat next to yours. "Y/N, Let me help you get some proper rest tonight. You look exhausted," he would say with a smile. He would wrap his arm over you, pulling you into him. The warmth and the rhythm of his breathing would lull you to sleep.

Kíli - Kili noticed you tossing and turning all night, focusing too much on trying to fall asleep. Knowing that overthinking it would only keep you more awake, he would try to distract you. With a playful wink, Kili would turn it into a playful competition, saying, "The first one to count the most stars wins." As the game would begin, he'd hold your hand, feeling it gradually go limp as you drifted off to sleep. He'd smile, knowing his little game had worked.

Bilbo - Bilbo understands that nothing beats a good night's sleep in your own bed, especially when the journey is far from comfortable. Sensing your lack of sleep and need for comfort, he might offer you his favorite blanket or another comfort item from home, like a book. After giving you the book, he settles beside you and rambles about Hobbiton and the Shire. His gentle mumbles would act like ASMR, putting you right to sleep before you even have the chance to open the book.

Gandalf - Like Bilbo, Gandalf's voice could easily put you to sleep. He'd keep his voice above a whisper, offering you some Old Toby to help you mellow out. Between Gandalf's calming voice and the pipeweed, you would be out.

You’re scrolling through emails, catching up on work notes for the next day, when your phone buzzes unexpectedly. Glen’s name flashes on the screen. A call, not a text. A call from Glen. You pause, your stomach flipping a little as you answer.

“Hey there,” his voice is warm and casual, yet somehow it carries a hint of hesitation.

“Hi, Glen.” You try to keep your tone steady, but you can’t help the little spark of excitement.

There’s a short pause on his end, then, “So, I was wondering… would you like to grab dinner tonight?” His words come out in a slightly rushed, almost nervous tone like he’s throwing the offer out before he second-guesses himself. “I thought it’d be nice to get out of the hotel for a bit. What do you think?”

You blink, caught off guard. “Dinner? Just… the two of us?”

“Yeah,” he replies, and you can hear the smile in his voice now. “Just us. If you’re up for it, I can pick you up around seven?”

Your mind races. It feels like a date—the tone, the way he’s asking—but he hasn’t exactly said it is a date. There’s an unspoken question in the air, one you’re almost afraid to answer too quickly. But the warmth of his voice draws you in, the idea of spending time with him outside of work too tempting to pass up.

“Sure,” you finally say, trying to sound as calm as possible. “I’d like that.”

“Perfect. What room are you in? I’ll come by and grab you,” he says, and the ease in his tone gives you a little more confidence. You tell him your room number, trying to ignore the butterflies in your stomach.

“Great, I’ll see you at seven,” he says, and you can almost picture his grin on the other end of the line. “And, uh… no rush or anything, but wear whatever you’re comfortable in. I’m just excited to spend some time together.”

You end the call, setting your phone down as you let out a deep breath. A soft smile spreads across your face. Whether it’s a date or not, it feels like something more. You’re already thinking about what to wear, feeling a little thrill at the idea of the evening to come.

You stand in the bathroom, brushing the last bit of blush across your cheeks. Your reflection looks back at you, polished yet understated, with soft, loose waves falling just past your shoulders. You wanted to go for a look that felt natural—something effortless but still flattering, that would hopefully mask the nerves buzzing just below the surface.

Taking a small step back, you take in the whole outfit, from the fitted black turtleneck top down to the skirt you’ve chosen. It’s a soft, flowy piece with a black base, decorated with a delicate pattern in muted red and dusty pink. The colors are subtle but add just enough contrast to make the outfit feel a little special. The high-waisted cut gives you a smooth silhouette, and the gentle flare of the skirt swishes lightly when you move, giving it an elegance that feels comfortable, not overdone.

You smooth your hands over the skirt’s fabric, fingers lingering as you imagine Glen’s reaction. There’s a thrill in that thought that catches you off guard, sparking another wave of butterflies.

You glance down at your black, closed-toe ankle-strap heels, adjusting the strap one last time. They’re comfortable enough to walk in but add that finishing touch, elevating the outfit without making it feel too dressed up. You take a step back, eyes returning to your reflection, feeling the weight of anticipation settle in.

Taking a deep breath, you try to calm the rush of thoughts swirling through your mind. It feels silly, standing here getting so worked up, but something about this night feels different. Special even. 

There’s a part of you that wants to know exactly what he’s thinking if he’s as aware of this shift between you as you are. You can feel it—the quiet thrill of wondering where the evening will lead, what might unfold beyond the ordinary moments you’ve shared on set.

With one last steadying breath, you nod to your reflection, silently telling yourself, You’ve got this. You pick up your clutch, adjust your hair one last time, and head to the door, ready to see what tonight might bring.

The knock pulls you from your thoughts, making your heart skip a beat. You smooth down your skirt, take a steadying breath, and walk to the door. As you open it, Glen stands before you, leaning casually against the doorframe with a soft smile that sends another ripple of nerves through you.

He’s dressed simply but so effortlessly put together. His caramel-brown, short-sleeve ribbed polo fits him just right, the collar slightly open at the neckline, adding a relaxed charm to his look. The warm tones suit him, accentuating the natural tan of his skin, while his light beige trousers complete the ensemble in a way that feels both casual and sophisticated—perfectly in sync with the easygoing confidence he seems to radiate.

Glen’s eyes sweep over you for a brief second, taking in your outfit with a look of quiet admiration that he doesn’t try to hide. “Wow,” he says, voice low and genuine. “You look great.”

You feel your cheeks warm, caught off guard by the directness of his compliment. “Thank you,” you reply, managing a small smile. “You don’t look too bad yourself.”

He laughs, an easy, relaxed sound that breaks the tension in the air. 

“Ready?” he asks, motioning for you to lead the way as you step out of your room and let the door click shut behind you. You feel his hand move to your lower back. His fingers, are warm and steady, and it’s such a small gesture, yet it somehow heightens the electric thrill of the moment.

As you walk toward the elevators, the conversation flows effortlessly, dipping in and out of lighthearted topics and banter. There’s something different in the air tonight—an unspoken awareness between you, as if each of you senses that this dinner might mean more than either has put into words.

In the elevator, there’s a comfortable silence, but every now and then, you feel Glen glance your way, and when you finally meet his eyes, he chuckles, slightly sheepish. “Sorry. I’m still kind of stunned that you said yes,” he admits, rubbing the back of his neck.

You laugh softly, looking down as you speak. “I don’t usually get asked out by my… clients? Coworkers?” You raise an eyebrow, playfully struggling with the right word.

“Yeah, maybe we should just call it co-workers,” Glen jokes, nudging you gently with his shoulder as the elevator doors open.

The two of you step into the lobby, and as you catch sight of the small crowd gathered just outside the glass doors, nerves flutter in your stomach. A few fans, mixed with paparazzi, wait with cameras ready, and the sight of flashing lights makes your pulse quicken.

Glen notices your reaction and looks down at you, his warm, steady gaze bringing you a bit of comfort.

He extends his arm with a reassuring smile. “Just stay close to me—I’ve got you.”

You loop your arm through his, grateful for the support as the two of you step towards the exit. Glen takes the lead, guiding you through the revolving doors. The noise swells as you step outside, the murmurs and clicking cameras growing louder. Your instinct is to keep your head down, focusing on each step to make sure you don’t trip in your heels.

“Hey, Glen!” a fan calls, and he lifts his free hand to wave, offering a friendly smile in response. You feel the press of the crowd around you tighten, and as the paparazzi lean in with cameras, one of them inches closer to you.

Suddenly, your hand slips from Glen’s elbow, making you instinctively pull back. Glen glances over his shoulder, quickly catching sight of you just a step behind. Without a second thought, he reaches back, his hand finding yours and pulling you closer. The gesture is so natural, but it feels grounding, like an anchor in the whirlwind of people and flashing lights around you.

“Could you guys give us a little space?” he says, his tone polite but firm as he shields you from the encroaching cameras. His hand is warm and steady around yours, and you find yourself focusing on that touch as he guides you forward, weaving through the crowd with practiced ease.

He steers you toward a sleek, black rental car waiting at the curb. Still holding your hand, he lets go only to open the passenger door, stepping slightly in front of you to shield you from the cameras. Once you’re safely inside, he closes the door and walks around to the driver’s side, brushing off the crowd’s lingering attention with an air of calm.

As he slips into the driver’s seat, he glances over at you, a small, reassuring smile on his face. “You good?” he asks, his voice softening now that it’s just the two of you again.

You give Glen a warm smile, nodding in response to his question. “Yeah, I’m good. Thanks for the rescue back there.” You manage a small laugh, still a little breathless from the experience outside, but grateful for his steadying presence.

“Anytime,” he replies, flashing you a smile as he starts the car, his gaze briefly flickering to you before he pulls out onto the road. The city lights stream past as the quiet hum of the car settles you, the fast-paced energy of the crowd outside fading with each block.

“So, I hope you’re in the mood for Italian,” Glen says, his voice casual but with a hint of excitement. “I found this place not too far from the hotel that everyone’s been raving about. Figured it was worth a try.”

Your face lights up at the mention of Italian food, and you nod eagerly. “Italian is always a good idea. And if it’s somewhere you’ve heard great things about, then I’m definitely in.”

He chuckles, giving a satisfied nod. “Glad to hear it. Thought I’d try and make a solid impression,” he teases lightly.

You raise an eyebrow, a playful smile tugging at your lips. “Oh? So is this you pulling out all the stops?”

“Just a few of them,” he admits, his eyes twinkling as he glances over at you. “Gotta keep some surprises up my sleeve.”

The relaxed, warm atmosphere inside the car makes your nerves start to dissolve, replaced by the fluttery anticipation of what the rest of the night might bring.

As Glen pulls up to the restaurant, the warm glow of the exterior lights welcomes you. He parks smoothly and shifts into park before turning to you with a bright smile. “Ready for a great meal?” he asks, his excitement evident.

“Absolutely,” you reply, your own anticipation bubbling up as you glance at the charming exterior.

He steps out and walks around the car, opening the door for you.

“After you,” he says, extending a hand to help you out. You take his hand, feeling a spark at the touch as he gently guides you out onto the sidewalk.

Glen hands the keys to the valet, then rests his hand on your lower back as he leads you toward the entrance. The feel of his touch sends another flutter of nerves through you, but it���s a comforting sensation amidst the excitement.

Inside, the restaurant is cozy and inviting, filled with the rich aroma of garlic and herbs. The dim lighting casts a soft glow over the elegant decor, with wooden beams overhead and warm, rustic tables that give the place a homey feel. You can hear the soft clink of glasses and the quiet hum of conversation, punctuated by the occasional laughter from nearby tables.

The hostess greets you with a warm smile and checks the reservation list. “Right this way,” she says, gesturing for you to follow her.

As you walk through the restaurant, you notice the decor—framed photographs of Italy lining the walls, lush green plants peeking from every corner, and soft Italian music playing in the background.

She leads you to a somewhat private table nestled in the back, away from the hustle and bustle. Glen reaches for your chair, pulling it out for you with a charming smile. “Ladies first,” he says, and you can’t help but blush slightly as you take your seat.

After you settle in, the hostess hands each of you a menu. As you both peruse the menus, the ambiance of the restaurant wraps around you like a warm embrace. The flickering candlelight casts dancing shadows, and the tantalizing aromas from the kitchen make your stomach growl softly.

“I think we should start with an appetizer,” you suggest, tapping the menu lightly. “What do you think about Bruschetta or maybe Caprese?”

Glen’s eyes widen slightly, and he shifts in his seat, giving you a nervous look. “Uh, about that…” he hesitates, rubbing the back of his neck. “I have this weird thing about cheese. I don’t really eat it.”

You blink in surprise for a moment but quickly brush it off with a smile. “That’s okay! How about we go with something else then? Stuffed Mushrooms, maybe?”

Glen looks visibly relieved but hesitates again, a sheepish smile creeping onto his face. “Are you sure it’s not weird that I don’t like cheese?”

“Not at all,” you assure him, leaning forward slightly. “Everybody has something unusual they don’t like. It’s what makes us human.”

He nods a spark of curiosity in his eyes. “Okay, then what’s your weird or unusual thing you don’t like?”

You chuckle lightly, enjoying the playful banter. “Well, I’m allergic to agave, so I don’t drink tequila. It’s not that I don’t like it; I just can’t.”

Glen feigns a dramatic gasp, placing a hand over his heart. “Oh no, this thing between us might not go well if I can’t share tequila with you!” He laughs, the sound bright and infectious, and you can’t help but join in.

“Maybe you’ll just have to find a different drink to buy me,” you suggest, your heart feeling lighter with every moment shared.

“Perfect!” Glen grins, his previous nervousness fading as the conversation flows naturally. “It sounds like we’ll still have a great time, even without the cheese and tequila drama.”

As the laughter continues, you feel the initial butterflies settle into a comfortable rhythm, excited to learn more about each other as the evening unfolds.

As the waitress arrives to take your appetizer order, Glen’s energy seems to spike, and he leans in slightly, excitement shining in his eyes. 

“So, I’ve been meaning to tell you about a couple of projects I’ve signed on for. One’s a romantic comedy! Can you believe it?” His voice carries a hint of incredulity, and you can’t help but grin at his enthusiasm.

“I can totally believe it,” you reply, feeling a rush of excitement for him. “I thought you were great in Anyone But You and Set It Up, so I’m sure you’ll do amazing in this next one!”

Glen’s eyes widen in surprise, a smile spreading across his face. “Wait, you’ve seen those? Really?”

You chuckle, feeling a bit sheepish. “I might be a little partial to a good rom-com.”

“Then you’ll love this one!” he says, leaning back in his chair with a satisfied grin. “I can’t wait for you to see it.”

“What’s it about?” You ask, genuinely thrilled for him.

“It’s about a guy who has to fake a relationship with his childhood friend to convince his family that he’s settled down. It’s got a lot of heart and some hilarious moments.” He chuckles, rubbing his hands together as if he can hardly contain his excitement.

You nod, feeling the warmth of his enthusiasm wash over you. “That’s fantastic! I can already picture you in it.” Then you remember the offer you received a few days ago, a flutter of nerves mixing with excitement. “Speaking of projects, I actually got an offer for a role last week. It’s a lead hair and makeup position for a new Nextflix  drama series that’s going to start filming next month.”

Glen’s eyes widen with genuine happiness. “Really? That’s incredible! I knew you’d get something big soon. You deserve it!” He leans back in his chair, a broad smile spreading across his face. The way he celebrates your success makes your heart flutter. It’s rare to find someone who is not only talented but also genuinely supportive of others.

“It’s still in the early stages, but I’m really excited about it,” you say, your voice brimming with enthusiasm as you share the details. “The story revolves around family dynamics, and I get to work with some pretty big names. I can’t wait to start!”

“That’s amazing! I can already see you nailing it,” he replies, the admiration in his voice clear. “I mean, you’re already so talented, and I can’t imagine how great you’ll be in something like that. Have you met any of the cast yet?”

You shake your head, feeling the adrenaline of both excitement and nerves. “Not yet! I’ll be meeting them for the first time in a few weeks once we wrap up filming this. I hope they’re as cool as they seem.”

“They will be,” Glen reassures you, his gaze steady and encouraging. “With your talent and charm, I bet you’ll fit right in. Just be yourself!”

His confidence in you is so uplifting, and as the conversation continues, there’s a seamless flow between the two of you, punctuated by laughter and shared stories. You find yourself reveling in this moment, feeling a connection grow deeper, not just over shared experiences but also in the way he genuinely seems to care about your success. It feels effortless, and you’re grateful for the lighthearted atmosphere, the way you can both share and celebrate your journeys with one another.

As your conversation continues to flow seamlessly, the waitress returns to the table, her notepad ready. “Are you two ready for the check?” she asks, glancing between the two of you.

Glen nods, a relaxed smile on his face. “Yes, please. Is it going to be one check or two?”

“One check,” he replies without hesitation, a hint of confidence in his voice.

You raise an eyebrow, feeling a spark of protest. “Wait, are you sure? I can chip in my part. It was my suggestion to get the stuffed mushrooms, after all.”

Glen shakes his head firmly, a playful glint in his eyes. “No way. You’re my guest tonight. Let me treat you.”

You cross your arms playfully, trying to feign indignation. “But I don’t want to take advantage of you!”

“Trust me, you’re not,” he insists, leaning back slightly and folding his arms with a smile. “Just let me do this.”

With a reluctant sigh, you finally relent, your lips curving into a small smile. “Fine, but only if I can treat you next time.”

Glen grins, the light in his eyes growing brighter. “Deal.”

As the waitress sets down the check, Glen quickly reaches for it, pulling out his card with a triumphant flourish. You watch, amused, as he takes care of the payment, your initial protest fading into a sense of warmth at his gesture.

As the dinner draws to a close, you stand up from the table, feeling the slight rush of excitement that comes with the end of a wonderful dinner. Glen moves closer, his hand reaching for yours, intertwining your fingers effortlessly. A warm flutter runs through you as he leads you toward the exit, his touch grounding and reassuring.

Once outside, you both pause near the valet station, and his hand finds its way to your lower back once more. You glance up to find him smiling down at you, his expression genuine. 

“I’m really glad you came tonight,” he says, the warmth in his voice making your heart skip a beat.

You return the smile, feeling a lightness in your chest. “I’m glad I came too. This was... really nice.”

The valet arrives with Glen’s car, and as he takes the keys, he glances back at you. “So, are you ready to go back to the hotel? Or if you’re up for it, I was thinking we could grab a drink somewhere nearby. There’s a place I’ve been too that’s really good not far from here.”

A drink sounds nice, a perfect way to extend the evening just a little longer. You nod, a smile creeping onto your face. “A drink sounds great.”

“Awesome. Let’s go!” he replies, his excitement contagious as he opens the car door for you. You slip inside, feeling a mix of anticipation and comfort as the evening unfolds before you, knowing that the night isn’t quite over yet.

Arriving at the bar, Glen parks and comes around to open your door. You’re both laughing as you step onto the sidewalk when a small group of fans spots him, excitement sparking in their expressions. A few call his name, while others shyly approach, asking for pictures. 

He turns to you, clearly torn between spending time with you and not wanting to disappoint them. You smile, placing a hand on his arm. “Go ahead, Glen. I’ll head inside and grab us a table. Take your time.”

His shoulders relax as he gives a nod, gratitude shining in his eyes. “Thanks. I won’t be long.” 

You share a quick smile before turning and making your way through the bar’s entrance, sneaking one last look back to see him greeting fans and posing for pictures.

Inside, the place is cozy with warm lighting, chatter filling the space as groups of friends and couples laugh around tables and booths. Towards the back, you spot a secluded booth that seems perfect, and you settle in just as a waitress comes by with a drink menu.

“Just a water for now, thanks,” you say with a polite smile, skimming the menu and glancing toward the door now and then. The comfortable ambiance of the bar mixed with the anticipation of the evening fills you with a relaxed excitement as you wait for Glen to join you, eager to see where the night leads next.

A few minutes pass, and then you spot Glen stepping inside the bar. His gaze scans the room briefly before landing on you, and a smile tugs at his lips as he heads over. Sliding into the booth beside you, he settles close enough for his knee to brush yours under the table, a comfortable closeness that brings warmth to the quiet corner.

“Thanks for saving me a seat,” he says with a wink, picking up the menu.

You smile back, feeling the flutter in your stomach return as the two of you start looking through the drink options together. The waitress soon returns, and you both place your orders before she leaves again, leaving you and Glen alone in the soft, dim lighting.

For a moment, there’s a shared, content silence between you as he leans back, looking completely at ease, his arm draped casually along the booth. He looks at you, a hint of vulnerability in his eyes that surprises you, and he lets out a small breath before speaking.

“I’ll be honest,” he begins, his voice softer than before. “I wasn’t really looking to get into a relationship. I didn’t think I had the time…or really the right lifestyle for it with everything going on. Between filming, traveling, and all these upcoming projects—I just thought it would be too complicated, you know?”

You nod, sensing the weight behind his words, and he continues, his hand moving absently along the edge of the table.

“But with you…” He pauses, meeting your gaze directly, a small smile creeping up as he says, “I don’t know, it just feels different. Like maybe it could work if we both want it to. I really like you, and I’d like to see where this could go.”

A mix of excitement and nerves bubbles up in you, and you find yourself nodding. “I really like you too,” you admit, your voice barely above a whisper. “And to be honest, I’m a little scared to put myself out there. But…being around you just feels right.”

Glen’s expression softens, and he reaches to cover your hand with his, giving it a reassuring squeeze. “Maybe we don’t have to put a label on it just yet. We can take it slow and keep it just between us for now—see where things go.”

You smile, feeling warmth spread through you at his words. “I’d like that.”

The drive back to the hotel is quiet, both of you savoring the comfortable silence that’s settled between you. Glen occasionally glances over, a subtle smile pulling at his lips every time your eyes meet. When he finally parks, he walks around to open your door, taking your hand as he leads you back inside and up to your room.

Outside your door, you turn to him with a smile, feeling a bit breathless from the night. “Thank you for such a great time tonight,” you say, your voice soft.

He smiles, moving just a little closer as his hand rests lightly on your hip, grounding you in the moment. “I should be the one thanking you. It’s been a while since I’ve had a night like this.” There’s a brief silence, and he looks at you, his eyes soft. “Would you want to do it again sometime?”

You feel your heart skip, and a smile spreads across your face. “I’d like that.”

For a second, you wonder if he’s about to say goodbye and head back down the hall. But then, with a warm, almost tentative look, he leans in. His lips meet yours in a soft, gentle kiss, one hand lifting to cup your face, his thumb brushing lightly along your cheek. You let your hand come up to rest against his chest, kissing him back as your eyes flutter closed, lost in the warmth and softness of the moment.

When he pulls back, there’s a look in his eyes that mirrors your own—a mixture of excitement and contentment, and the quiet promise of something more.

You both share a warm smile, the quiet energy between you lingering as Glen steps back, hands sliding into his pockets. You turn to your purse, reaching for your hotel room key card, when you feel him lean in once more. 

Before you can react, he brushes another gentle, lingering kiss to your lips, leaving you breathless all over again.

“Goodnight,” he murmurs, his voice soft and sincere, eyes meeting yours for one last moment. 

You smile, feeling the warmth of his words settle over you, and with a quiet, “Goodnight, Glen,” you slip inside, closing the door with your heart still racing, holding onto the sweetness of his kiss.

Negative Positive Angler fanarts&other things I didn't want to make a separate post about

Wowzie I haven't logged on Tumblr in forever my bad 😭 very heart warming to see people still stumbling upon my Serirei valentines day comic!! I promise I'll make another one next year, but better 😭💕! I'm mostly active on Twitter&bsk (mostly Blade NU:Carnival fanarts at milou_nyoo) but I think comics fit better here so I'll try to at least come here when I draw new comics (hopefully soon) (+ the likelihood of finding the np_angler fandom is higher,, I really like this show,, i want to draw more,,)

I've been watching Negative Positive Angler recently and although the fandom is quite small there's this adorable TakaakHiro fic that I really wanted to illustrate, so (with author's consent) here's a rendition of one of the scene in And All the Lights in Your Room Look Like Stars by jasperaptor on Ao3. (Please check out the fic and show author some love!! The fandom/this pair has 3 fics, they made 2 of them 😭🫶)

The show's premise is very typical (man finds purpose and joy in life after finding out he's going to die soon, fishing variant, bc yes this show is 50% about fishing, it's well done too) but idk I think we all need a classic slice of life with a sad twist for this new gen of anime. The characters are all a breath of fresh air and I think it's one of the anime I look forward to the most every week. It's simple but it got me and I can't escape. I want to see Hiro and gang happy together 😔😔😔.

[izloveshorses]

we're almost to the halfway mark, so i thought i'd share another progress update on this little (big) project!! (previous update)

i've almost finished drawing half of all the assets (according to my spreadsheet) and then we can start assembling them into a "book." the bulk of the assets are characters/costumes, but i've also completed several props and started working on some backgrounds as well. I need to decide how the book will be laid out before i make much more progress on those, though. i've been trying to hold off on finishing the principal cast because i think saving them for ~dessert~ will keep me motivated to power through the rest, but i'm so anxious to get to them because i want to play with them in photoshop and put them on their associated backgrounds like little paper dolls 🙈 so that's why ballet tuxedo!dmitry doesn't exist yet, and why i've yet to color the rest of anya's act ii wardrobe.

anyway. progress in my workflow is hardly ever linear, but you can kind of see how i approach the rendering process from these images, i hope. the drawing carries the weight of the image so that step always takes the longest, since getting the likeness, the proportions, the folds, and the expressions right is the most important. if any of that looks off no skillful painting or rendering can save it.

and then i always color skin first because everything else (clothes, hair) goes on top of skin. you can see the color palette i'm using is the same for almost all of them, though act ii requires a few more saturated hues than act i (bright blue, some reds, and green every once in a while). coloring the rest in doesn't usually take very long. once the flats are down i go in for a final pass, laying down those patterns and textures that always give me a hard time lol. and then i clean up and recolor the line work and mark it as done! since i'm working digital i use alpha lock and clipping masks for that.

director's cut commentary of each image included (under the cut bc this post is already so long):

anya's act ii lineup. her phtk outfit is the only one i've marked complete (the linework on the others is still black and need just a few more touchups). I've yet to lay in the flats for the maroon travel coat because i think the drawing needs more work. i might change a few things on big red, maybe her expression, but i haven't decided yet.

dmitry's act ii lineup (sans tuxedo). he just needs a final pass on the first two on the left, and then his finale look is finished, because it's the same from act i :)

vlad's act ii lineup. he's almost done, just needs a final pass on the finale and phtk outfits.

lily's act ii lineup. i'm going to redo the pattern on her neva club dress (linda cho i love u but god) but otherwise she's all finished.

the dowager's act ii lineup. she's done! :) maybe i'll find something to pick at later but rn i'm marking her done lol.

petersburg citizens from rumor! i think these guys are all done. there are more people i could include, but there isn't enough variation on the costumes to make it worth it imo.

neva club patrons. the only two marked complete are the two on the left, sergei the doorman/the male server and count leopold. i still need to find a good reference for the female server lol.

the press! just the men for now lol. i used the obc program as a reference for this one, so i'll get the two ladies in soon :)

the hussies! i've marked it complete, but. we'll see if there's more adjustments i can make.

there's still more i've completed that's not pictured, but i'll definitely share more soon. act i is nearly finished entirely, which is cool, and the only big ensemble sheet i've yet to make much progress on is everyone in phtk. i may end up just drawing one or two people from that and then copying them with different patterns because, honestly, the shape of the dresses and suits are all very similar. hopefully that won't be boring to look at lol.

if there's anything in particular you'd like to see/have any questions, or even suggestions, lmk!! and follow my 'anastasia illustrated guide' tag for more updates :)

AND NOW.... FOR A SPECIAL 3RD ANNIVERSARY UPDATE. (6/1/2024)

Hello friends, hello mutuals, hello dimension dyfenders fans and hello people who like indie cartoon/comic stuff in general! Comet here. Once Again. and this time i've got something ig this year. This was supposed to release on May 29th, but due to Ren not coming back for a long time because they needed to prioritize irl stuff, of course, we had to delay it.

But, but, BUT! thankfully I had a few things ready after all, however as for some other things else, we'll get to it much later, when the moment calls. Now, let's get off with the first one.

(warning, in case this update gets too long, i'll make a part two where i'll be able to link it through here.)

You Kinda... Look Different.

You may have noticed that Dislexo looks a bit different than usual (darker skin, a bit of shorter hair, etc.), in case you're wondering why... Yeah, you're about to find out.

So, while I was thinking and drawing up some D.D related stuff, I was brainstorming a little by my lonesome. All of the sudden, as I was making a new render for a character, I was like... "Wait a minute... What if I give Dislexo a new look which is a mix between a secretary and a butler but keep it's elements from what made their design unique?" and So, the new and improved Dislexo was born!

Honestly i'm proud of what they look like now. I just hope i won't (or will) get to redesign ALL of the cast again so suddenly lol! Anyways, thats just a small change I made, nothing too big. Now, let's get on something else... which is...

Pocket Adventures' current status + how's minisode 1 coming along

You might be asking inside your minds, "i wonder when more of minisode 1 will drop", "where are the new parts?"- Well, i got the answer. It'll only come only when im completely finished. However i havent been working much on it aside from making a few pages a few months ago, but hopefully this summer i may get back to it and finish it all up if i can. The final script is 73% percent complete, as for the comic itself, let's just say its 58%. I promise you i'm taking my time with delivering everything i can for this minisode. However i might republish the minisode with the series' current artstyle if it ever comes out physically (or either when I'll have the time or energy to do it.) So, now, you may be wondering: "But Comet, what do we do while we wait." Well you're not gonna believe this.

No, it's not an extremely late april fools post! We got new stuff coming soon, recently i've been brainstorming some ideas for brand new content, and you know what? It came to me, HERE'S WHAT'S COMING!

MORE TOONIES COMING YOUR WAY!

THAT'S RIGHT, after months of hiatus, Toonies is coming back with more strips! This time, since summer's coming around, i'll try to post and make more of them and even schedule the finished ones! We got even more covers for it coming, but for now, here's one of them!

More comics are not only gonna explore more of the Dyfenders' and the Dajo Crew's everyday lives in-and-out of their superhero/Villain occupations, we are also going to focus on much more on other characters (at least some of them), and some will last for a few more pages longer! No arcs though, sorry. But hey, you're getting more wackiness as a treat! Now, i know i said this year is not gonna be big like the other two years we had, but...

NEW SPECIAL CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT!

THAT'S RIGHT! We're working on a new special to commemorate our three years! Thought it'd be a nice adiction to this year, we may not reveal the logo and it's title yet, but we can tell you what the sypnosis is about!

You're all invited to the biggest night in the Omniverse, right across it's stars, cosmos, galaxies and portals! Both the Dimension Dyfenders and the Dajo-Crew are crossing the red (or should we say, blue) carpet in this brand new 3-part special! Prince Dajo-Voo has a new plan on how to take over the gala, all while he tries to self-control himself from doing the same explosive incident he did back then. The Dyfenders may be having a great time at the gala, but rest assured, they'll be sure to keep a close eye on him. Here's to a Rift-errific and (hopefully) trouble-free gala!

As a bonus, when the production on all three parts are done, we'll be posting Toonies comics related to the special, which may feature a new character who will debut later on in Pocket Adventures! We don't know when it'll exactly be out, my guesses would be either summer, september or next May 2025. But rest assured, we'll be working on it, but we won't rush it out.

So... What's next?

Honestly, i can't really tell. But I can assure you i still have so may plans for this series, plans that will be put in action in the far-off future. What i really hope to do is to make animated shorts as well, not just Toonies strips, pocket adventures minisodes and comic dubs of it. Maybe if we'll ever make a backerkit or a kickstarter for it and get a budget, it might happen (along with more VAs joining in.) Speaking of VAs, in case you're a VA and you haven't auditioned yet, anytime is the right time! (this is still a test leap, but if it succeeds it may go further.)

but for now, we're sticking to comics, and then, if possible we'll get to comic dubs and so on.

That's all for now! I hope you're all looking forward to what's coming for this series. I'm sorry that it wasnt as big as the last years, but we promise that things will arrive when they can.

Happy (LATE) third anniversary, everybody!! Thanks for reading!

By the way, HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!

HYPERSOMNIA JUNE DEV LOG : “FASHIONABLY LATE”

Hi! I already wrote this entire dev log but I closed the tab by accident, so it's now 10:55pm and I'm going to try and speedrun writing something that took me an hour to write.

For all of you who follow HYPERSOMNIA, you should already know what the gist is here I've been saying this for 6 months.

if you don't know what this is or are confused on what HYPERSOMNIA is read the other dev logs i've said this like every time lol

So, just as a heads up this log isn't going to be super long with new content because I have been insanely busy these last few months! I just graduated High School and the last few months have been me cramming to make sure I pass and could graduate and now I am!!! Yay!!!

I won 2 awards at my grad (One of them being excellence in arts :D) and the other I was given a check for 200$ so I snagged one of these!

Super happy I finally got a display tablet for drawing, I've wanted one of these since I was like 14 and it feels awesome to have one now. I got this thing super cheap too, this thing usually goes for like 300-350 Canadian and I got it for 130! Super super happy about this.

That's all from me personally, but I would like to say just as 1 last thing before the updates, Happy Pride Month to all who identify as LGBTQ+, I myself am queer and just want to remind all of you that you are loved and accepted. Hopefully I can get this out before midnight so it's still pride month LOL

OK! NOW FOR UPDATES! I don't have too much to share today but I do have somethings I want to show off.

First things first, I've been respriting some characters! Ross and Jack are the biggest edits I've made so far so I'd like to show them off.

(Left is old, and right is new!)

Ross' walking sprites were updated! I was kind of dissatisfied with how Ross looks like he's struttin' everywhere so I redid it to give him a more casual walk. I'm very happy with this change and I plan for it to be the base walking animation going forward. I also updated his side profiles slightly to look closer to the key art I illustrated.

Jack also had his idles redone! He I think was the biggest thing I needed to resprite, his old sprite is kind of cluttered and poorly detailed so for his new one I simplified a lot of the shading and reshaped his hair and mask. I think it came out really well.

Also, just earlier I was working on music for the game.

I'm really happy with how this came out, I just got high and made Half-Life music (Which is what I was aiming for LOL)

Hopefully I can get to a point where I can finish off the soundtrack for the demo and post it all. Some friends of mine were a bit sad I delisted the tracks I had up initially so I hope to get those up again soon.

I've also been storyboarding out some early game cutscenes, I can't show a lot because it's all a bit spoiler-y but I will put this in the log.

And one last thing too, THE MOTHER DIRECT!

on July 27 at 6PM ET, MOTHER FOREVER will be hosting the MOTHER Direct, which HYPERSOMNIA is a part of!

There'll be a ton of indie games, fan projects, and other things relating to or inspired by the MOTHER series! Please give it a watch if you can. If you can't make it, the event will remain on MOTHER FOREVER's YouTube channel, and I'll be uploading HYPERSOMNIA's trailer on YouTube, Twitter, Steam, and here. If you do catch the stream or end up watching it after, leave a comment! Tell 'em Ferris sent ya. Do it, or I'll cry. I'm expecting at least 1 "Ferris sent me!" or I'll cry. I swear, I will do it!

If this is your first log you're reading, or even your first time seeing ANYTHING relating to HYPERSOMNIA, I got a whole bunch of links for you to check out if you wanna know more about me and my stupid little game.

dev log - dec 30, 2023

here's an excerpt from chapter one, an interaction between the MC and Vera. AUGHHH you guys i'm actually so excited about chapter one. i've gotten to the point where Vera's introduction is almost over. know what that means?!

we get to meet all the other ROs!!! along with Vera!!! YAHOO!

i'm mostly done writing for the night, but i do think that i got a good bit of work done. we're sitting at about 15k words now. with the fact that i'm back in school soon for my winter semester (shivers), i am really going to try and complete a sizeable portion of chapter one before i'm off. genuinely, i am having SO much fun writing Vanguard, and i'd really hate to get burnt out by school. JAYE STOP TALKING ABOUT SCHOOL SHUTUPSHUTIPTHSU

anyways!! i'll also be working on getting physical descriptions of the ROs in their profiles. i got Emilio and Vera done, but my attention span is so minuscule that i apparently found something better to do instead of finishing the rest of the characters' descriptions. whatever. as it goes for the workings of my brain.

my next dev log will (hopefully) be before school starts again, and i'm aiming to have the Vanguard's profile in game be updated to show the MC's traits and more of chapter one done. i'm so excited to introduce my other characters, i really really am. for the character profiles, i should hopefully have those fully completed soon, besides the reworked portraits i will eventually draw.

i'll still try to post at least weekly!! like at the very least. uni can't get THAT bad (yes it can)(let me live in my delusions for a bit before i get sad). i'll still be posting drawings, yapping, etc etc. speaking of asks...PLEASE ask about my characters. again, i am so very not normal about all of them. if it's about an RO, or lore, i'd be happy to answer. anything that's on your mind!

goodnight everyone, thank you for reading! and thanks to everyone who has been providing suggestions in my inbox, it's much appreciated.

-jaye

[hazbinhoteloc-ninlil]

(a message for the mod :D)

sorry if i'm bothering you with this ask, mod. it's fine if you don't answer this. i know that my words can't worth much to anyone on the other side of this screen, but my gosh i'll try to spread the positivity and my appreciation for all RP blogs, so i'll send this in, mod. there could be a better way of doing this, which i have learned is through the art of tagging (yes i'm slowly learning my way through Tumblr because i, myself, am still a huge Tumblr newbie, lol), and i'm too nervous and shy to do something like that haha, so here's a personalized positivity ask in your ask box :D.

first, i love seeing your OC. their design is such a cool one, both of the designs. they are just so cool. i'd wish i could have interacted more but i get crazy anxious with things that i'm not quite familiar with, but i wish to interact more in the future :D.

the lore that you have made with the other RPers is that even a word? i don't know and i hope that i'm not pulling that word from out of nowhere, lol. is literally so cool to see. but that last one before they ascended just tug at my heart strings T^T.

i do hope that those anons/people would stop sending everyone hate because frankly those people have no clue what they're talking about >:(. you all are frankly so cool and lovely people, so >:(. again, sorry i'm bothering you with this rather man, i didn't expect it to be this long ask.

and that i hope that you have a wonderful day/night/whenever you manage to read this ask. don't feel the need to respond if you don't want to, just wanted to send this positivity ask in :D.

you might be able to tell who this is, but in case you don't, i wouldn't want to expose myself, so i hope you understand this being on an account with literally nothing but a tracker of who i've been to already (yes, i made an account just to do this but without any identifiable information on this account :P).

luv you and all that you do for this community :D.

you do what you do best so keep on doing it, mod :3.

-spreading positivity anon :D (the anon account that only interacts with mods unless the characters are in need to raising their spirit :3, even if this is an account.)

(yes i see the contradictory notion of me having this sign off, lol, but i'll also probably be around the other RP blogs and try to spread some positivity with the same sign-off as an attempt to fight off the unnecessary hate that seems to be thrown around :D. and i will become a virus which spreads positivity if i need to >:3)

Ooc: // Hello sweetheart, thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words.

This is what I meant when I said I am so proud of what this community has become, I’m so honored to be able to be apart of something that seeks to lift up and make others smile, while also gathering to support one another through hate.

Those Hateful anons haven’t come near me, and for that I am grateful, it makes me sad that they went after some of my friends however and I’m glad they seem to have stopped. Hopefully they will reflect on their actions and realize flaw in their own behavior.

I don’t expect apologies from them though it’d be nice if they do read this. “It Starts With Sorry” after all. 😉

I love story telling, writing and drawing. The fact I was able to Share Ninlil with you all and you all have been receptive and fell in love with her has made my heart full. I’m sorry I scared people with her almost death in the Last RP. I was not yet aware of the negativity being spread, otherwise I would’ve put a disclaimer stating her soon ascension. I have no plans to leave this platform anytime soon.

I love you all, and I hope you have a wonderful week, have plenty of food to fill your stomachs, may the weather be fair, and may you be surrounded and protected by joy and peace.

My heart bleeds and goes out to those who are unable to be in peace right now, and I hope they find peace soon.

[tf2tomfoolery]

HELLOO HII :)) Here's a few paper sketches/WIPs of the Airman, @2fortred's 10th class oc :D

Thanks for letting me draw him, can't wait to finish these (and some others! :O 👀) and show them here! 👍

Snippet of a drawing of Airman with Soldier to his left.

His melee weapon is a crate or a box of some sort. : ) Cya at spawn, son.

⬆️ Scout noticed his dogtags and started yapping about his own (I messed this one up arrrghHH)

Something silly to encapsulate what I've been up to when sketching and yeah

A lot of rambling under the cut:

These are VERY much just practice sketches and funny sribbles etc, trying to get used to drawing faces consistently in my 'style' (still.. figuring that out hrmm). 2FORTRED YOUR CHARACTER IS SO FUN TO DRAW AAA HE'S SO COOL! ',:) HOPE YOU ENJOY THESE SILLY SCRIBBLES! MORE TO COME HOPEFULLY SOON RAAGHH I'll muster up the courage to post more WIPS and the finished products eventuallyyyy

I'm planning on cropping these out and cleaning them up digitally on my laptop, perhaps colouring them in, then posting them again in a nicer format! Quite happy with these, mainly because I finally drew down some ideas that have been scampering around in my mind for ages. Yes he is throwing his crate at you :) cya at respawn pardner

I'm posting these even though they're wips, because it's about time I posted something and I keep getting stressed over the usual stuff that prevents me from sharing my art.

Uh ignore scout he's there. Tried to draw a scene of those two where Scout yaps to Airman about their dog tags and then his introverted silence sort of just. Makes scout awkwardly stop talking and gets self aware (it's very out of character LMAO scout not talking and being self aware huh what?)

Uh burber :]

The whole page so far (definitely going to clean this up and fix the colours but I had fun) SOLDIER YOU'RE SO DIFFICULT TO DRAW RAAGHH he's kind of there.

[tsukuyomii45]

oooo, may i hear your adult Rin warlord Obito headcanon? p.s. really glad you are back! <3

Yes you definitely may hear it! Buckle up! This is A VERY LONG, angsty ride, and a lot of it is canon compliant and will be sticking to Naruto themes so that things can remain in-character and hopefully makes you feel like you're watching the show, but I'll keep what we already know and saw short so I can get straight to the point:

~~

-Every event that took place in Naruto, including Obito's descent to darkness, takes place - except that Rin lives and grows up, while Obito is just too far gone and no longer really cares for the world anymore and already has a broken mind.

-So while Obito is developing the Akatsuki, Rin is enhancing her powers as the Sanbi's Jinchuuriki, and Obito maintains his hidden identity as Tobi and Rin never figures out who he is until the start of the 4th Shinobi World War.

-Mask reveal happens, and Rin is horrified and shocked that the masked man this whole time, the one that was the catalyst to many of the destructive events, was the very best friend she thought she lost in Kannabi. So naturally, Rin would go through so many different emotions; horror, confusion, denial, joy and heartbreak all at the same time.

-She at first expresses how happy she is to see him, and then would say that there is no way that he'd do everything he did, and there has to be someone that made him. She'd then watch Kakashi and Obito interact and listen to the way Obito taunts him, and she couldn't believe the words she was hearing out of his mouth, words expressing that he didn't care for this world and had one goal, etc.

-She would then tearfully remind Obito that his one goal was to become the Hokage, but Obito would coldly tell her, "That boy is dead." Rin argues back, saying that he'd never die in her eyes, but Obito silences her by launching a large shuriken from his Kamui dimension (but he purposefully misses hitting her, which hints that he doesn't want to hurt her), just to show her that he "doesn't care" about her words.

-Of course, Naruto's yelling draws Kakashi and Rin's attention back to him and the war, then Madara shows up and Rin has to watch Obito standing with the enemy trying to control the Juubi. Rin is frozen in shock, to the point where even Isobu tries to shake her back to her senses in order to focus and to put her emotions on the side. Rin becomes more convinced that Madara had everything to do with this. As soon as Naruto, Gai, and Kakashi get injured by a few attacks, and Killer B is already growing tired of using Gyuuki, Rin snaps back to her senses and utilizes her Tailed Beast Mode, and rushes to heal them with Isobu's chakra.

-Madara taunts Obito by asking if he purposely forgot to extract her Tailed Beast because he still held love for her, to which Obito scoffs and says that Yagura's Tailed Beast (Isobu's other half) is more than enough. Of course, Madara doubts his words and has a plan of his own given that Obito is already doing as he pleases.

-Fast forward to the Alliance showing up, and Rin forces herself to see Obito as an imposter, not the person she knew, and no longer hesitates to throw her own attacks at him, much to his shock. He remains on the defensive, however, using his Kamui to make her attacks pass through. Rin angrily tells him that she already knows the trick to his jutsu thanks to Kakashi, and while this riles up Obito, he didn't have the time to react or respond since Kakashi shows up in an attempt to protect Rin.

-When Kakashi tries to teleport Juubi's head and sever it off with his Kamui, Obito steps in to stop him, but then Rin uses her tail to grab Kakashi away and gets sucked into the Kamui dimension first. Here, she exhausts her Tailed Beast Chakra and is back to her standard shinobi alliance uniform, which is quite tattered and torn up.

-He starts to talk to her about the day he found her with Kakashi's hand pierced right through her heart. He tells her all of the things he saw in this world. Rin listens intently as she remains cautious, but then as she looked into Obito's eyes, she could easily see how much turmoil he's been through. The scars on his face is a grim reminder that it is him, he's not an imposter.

-She tries to bargain with him again, telling him that she just wants to understand what happened to him. She wants to know why he's doing all of this, and if he knew that she was still alive, why didn't he allow her to be by his side all of this time?

-Obito starts to approach her and Rin tenses up, feeling vulnerable as she can no longer anticipate his next words and movements. He then stands close enough to her, then he wraps an arm around her waist and draws her to him, tightly pressing her against him while he lifts up her chin with his other hand to make her face him fully. He whispers to her softly, asking, "Do you hate me?" Rin shakily answers, "No...I can't hate you..." Obito then asks, "Are you afraid of me?" Rin would then respond, "I don't want to be." Obito would then respond, "You should be."

-He brushes his thumb over her pink lips, his eyes in a daze. He expresses how much he loved her, and what could've been if things were different. Rin swallows and says, "I know you're still in there. The Obito that I always knew. The Obito that I always stood by. The Obito whose dream was to become a Hokage." Tears start to slowly flow down her cheeks as she says, "Despite all of this, I still believe in you.."

-Obito tells her that he's right here, standing before her, and holding her closely like he always dreamed of doing for so long. But because he's a manipulative cunt (we're talking about black-haired bad boy Obito here), he guilts her by saying that if she really wants the old Obito back, he could make it happen. All she has to do is to be by his side like she always did before. He guilts her by saying that if she really loved and missed her old friend, she would stop at no end to bring him back.

!!!!! TW: Mental Issues !!!!

-Rin however, knows better. She pulls herself away from Obito and sternly tells him that he is not the Obito that she wants to stand by. She says, "The Obito that I want to watch over is the one who will become the Hokage!" And this shocks Obito to his core of course, and Rin then witnesses a sudden change in his movements. Obito starts hallucinating his old self, and the voice of his old self saying, "I will become a Hokage!" starts ringing all over.

-Obito grips at his head and screams for the voices to shut up. Rin immediately grows concerned for him and rushes to him, prying his hand off then holding his face so he could look at her, attempting to ground him. Obito stares at her for a little, and sees flashing images of Rin's younger self, then his younger self, hearing cheerful laughter and fragments of the things they used to say to each other, such as Rin saying, "I'm always watching you!". Then he sees an image of her face when Kakashi pierced her with his Chidori, and Madara's voice ringing, talking to him about the realities of the world.

-He starts hyperventilating, and then he pushes Rin off of him, shocking her as he tells her to get away. He focuses his Mangekyou so that he can teleport her out of the Kamui dimension, and he's once again alone. He spends some time to gather himself, and just as he does so, Kakashi shows up. Here, the talking and the battle between them in the Kamui dimension takes place.

-Fast forward to Obito being severely injured by Kakashi, and Madara extracting the chakra rods out of him. Then we get to hear his iconic raging scream when he tries to shake off Madara's manipulation, and Rin, who has finally recharged her Tailed Beast chakra, rushes towards him so she could stop the resurrection along with Naruto and Sasuke. She ends up watching Minato slash him before she could even reach.

-She couldn't register what happen, and the next thing she knew, Obito absorbs the Ten-Tails and becomes the Ten-Tail's Jinchuuriki. As she watches turn into the monstrosity that he is, all she could do is whisper, "Obito... what have you done..." And the whole battle between Obito and Naruto + Sasuke ensues and so does everything else in the show, while Rin turns her focus onto healing and buffing up the alliance since Juubito did a number on them.

-Rin eventually supports Naruto and the alliance who were empowered by Minato and Naruto's Nine-Tails chakra to extract the Ten-Tails from Obito. Here the whole talk-no-jutsu scene plays out xD and as Rin uses Isobu's powers and tails to pull Yagura's Isobu and merge it with her own, she becomes more determined to bring back the Obito she once knew.

-Obito collapses (and we now get our white-haired DILF into the scene), and while Sasuke rushes to kill him, with Naruto chasing after him, and Kakashi teleporting out of nowhere with the attempt to slash a kunai, Rin shoots a coral spike at Kakashi's kunai to stop him just as Minato rushes to hold back his arm, and summons a trail of coral spikes to block Sasuke's path.

-All attention is drawn on Rin, who stares at Obito with a serious and firm look as warm, silent tears stream down her eyes. Obito watches in anticipation as she approaches him, her chakra mode dissipating for a temporary moment, and she begins to speak. Rin says, "For the longest time, I felt like I existed so that I can take away people's pain, because I too, knew of the cruelty of this world. It's this world's cruelty that lead to you and I making a promise to one another."

- She then settles on her knees next to his paralyzed body, and caresses his scarred cheek with a sad smile on her face, reassuring him that no matter what and after everything that happened, she bears no hatred or resentment towards him, only that her she is heartbroken because he had to endure so much and she hates that she couldn't take away his pain.

-So, tears are shed and it becomes a very emotional moment, and Kakashi talks to Obito about Naruto's path of life, making Obito finally see that Naruto's way is the right way (again, we're complying with canon), and then just as he decides to use Rinne Tensei, Black Zetsu stops him - and that whole scene where Madara gets resurrected is played here.

-Fast forward to everyone trying to fight off a shirtless and insane Madara, and Obito struggles to remain conscious while shaking off Black Zetsu's manipulation. Rin steps in here to help Obito by using her Tailed Beast chakra to heal him and provide him some sense of movement since he's merely alive thanks to the husk of the 10-Tails sealed inside him.

-Obito gains consciousness and Black Zetsu escapes somewhere, but steals Obito's Rinnegan along the way, and this is where shit hits the fan: Madara is now fully powerful, but before he could even extract the husk of the 10-Tails, everyone attempts to fight him off, including Obito, who falls into a hand-to-hand combat with him and tries to use his Kamui as an advantage. Kakashi and Naruto try to fight as well, but because Madara is Madara, they all fail, and Madara chokes Obito and then sinisterly says that he's going to fully punish him for his betrayal.

-Madara extracts the husk at last, and throws Obito towards Kakashi, and now every Tailed Beast is in danger, including Rin and Naruto. The Tailed Beasts get chained up and sucked into the husk, and Rin, who knows all too well that Naruto's powers are essential for the war, fights against the chains transforming into Isobu and parrying away the chain that is after the Kyuubi.

-Unfortunately, Rin fails... as the chain fully wraps around Isobu's neck, including the Kyuubi. In her subconscious, Rin fights against the strong pull, but she knows she is losing her strength and that the worst is about to happen. As Isobu is drawing further and further away, she leaves her last words to her Bijuu: "Be free!"

-Isobu is extracted and sealed in the husk, along with all other Tailed Beast. We all know what this means! Naruto falls and is captured by Gaara's sand. Rin falls and hits the ground, snapping the attention of Obito and Kakashi towards her. Out of nowhere, Obito finds the strength to move and dash towards her, while Kakashi just stands in utter shock.

-Obito urgently and shakily holds Rin to him (like he did when he found her corpse), and asks her to stay with him and that he'll get help. His Sharingan registers that her heartbeat is slowing down, and he starts to panic and tremble, willing his mind to block out the feeling of dejavu that was about to consume him. Rin looks up at him, trying to remain conscious as she makes him promise that he'll save Naruto. He promises that he'll save him, and begs her to stay alive.

-Rin's breathing grows shallow as she utters more of her final words, and she says with a weak, but relieved smile, "I always knew that your pure heart remained steadfast. I never stopped believing in you." She then tells him that she's sorry she couldn't do more, and she's sorry that the world has beaten him down to the person he became. And then she tells him one thing that completely breaks him: "More than anything... I'm just happy that I saw you again."

-Regret, guilt and anguish consumes Obito as he tearfully responds with heavy pain in his voice while tightly gripping her hands : "You are the only person that I've ever cared for and loved so endlessly... and yet I... I couldn't save you...!" Rin would warmly respond, "You're here now. That's more than enough for me."

-Rin would then lastly say that she will always be watching him and would live on in his heart, and then her eyes slowly starts to close... her hand would loosen up in the hold of his hand, indicating that her final breath has finally been released, and she peacefully dies in his arms (again).

Long, but yeah. Angst. :3

[gamebunny-advance]

Sorry~

I feel like I've been doing a lot of b*tching and moaning lately, which aren't really the vibes I wanna be putting out (at least not without balancing it out with stuff I'm actually happy about).

So here are a couple of things that are kinda cool for me~

I recently had to get a new phone because my old one was very close to exploding (the battery was swelling). I don't really bother with top end models because I hardly use my phone except for texts and calls and looking up coupons when I'm shopping. But even nowadays, a relatively cheap phone has so many new features~

I won't use most of them, but it's cool that they're there, and I always have fun setting up new tech with all my customizations~ (Even though I don't use it much, I still want it to be cute!) I'm mostly just happy that the camera is an upgrade, so my photos won't be as shitty.

(New | Old)

Well, a better camera isn't gonna do anything for my lack of photography knowledge, but at least the pictures are a little clearer (The color balancing is still off, but I'll figure it out eventually.)

Also, kinda excited about a newish OC that I thought of.

Right now I'm calling them "Mascot Businessman" or "Yuru" (named after "Yuru-Chara") but the details aren't finalized. I don't like any of these mask designs yet, but I think the title is more or less self-explanatory: it's a businessman that wears a mascot head everywhere he goes. At first, it was just gonna be the one head, but I like the idea that they have different ones for different moods.

It's a simple idea, but somehow I'm actually pretty excited to work on them, which I haven't felt since I made Kun3h0~

I'm torn between leaving them as an actual mascot type character - they only exists for single pieces of art - or if I want to actually develop their story, because I do have an idea for them being paired with a coworker that's constantly trying to catch them with the mask off even though no one else in their workplace seems to acknowledge it. It's really about boundaries and accepting the strangeness of other people to live a happier life, but I dunno if I wanna go that deep with it.

I called them "newish" earlier because strictly speaking, this is a theme that's appeared in my work before.

A LONG time ago, I think even before DSYNC was conceptualized, I had an idea for a rogue abandoned 1010 that wore a mascot head because he lost his old one. Anyway, I'm pretty sure that that idea was what eventually turned into DSYNC B-Side.

There's also The Prince Formerly Known as Frog, who also has a big mascot head, but the execution for him is kinda different (he's supposed to be a guy stuck midway in a mascot costume and his original clothes because his curse was only half broken). And I don't draw him that much anyway~

So I consider Yuru to be an evolution of those ideas.

Hopefully I'll have some finished art of him soon after I figure out how I want all their heads to look~ (Because otherwise it really is just someone in a business suit.)

[notnosimp]

I enjoy that fucked up looking fish (Siren Charborg) quite a lot.

I want facts about the fucked up looking fish if you are willing to share

TY SM!!

Ask and I shall share!! (sorry to other asks, I'll try to get to y'all soon- with art, hopefully.)

Siren!Char is one of many characters in my Monster AU- where there exists Werewolves, Vampires, Sirens + Mermaids, many different versions of the Undead, and more! (Which you'll learn of soon :))

Charborg, (the fish-based scrunkly that he is) is of course, a Siren; basically being the carnivorous, singing version of a Mermaid.

This means that he has much sharper teeth (as you saw), claws instead of rounder, shorter nails (which i forgot to draw), and also a murkier color palette/scales. His tail also sports much tougher scales, built for combat (though not straight up immune from all hits) and a lot less shiny than a Mermaid.

(He's based off of a Sockeye Salmon, btw- got that from his PFP)

All fish-based, human-like monsters (Mermaids and all the species which come from them) have the ability to retract their tails- replacing them in an uncomfortable few seconds with legs. They still have most of their features in the transformation- keeping their coloration through 'tattoos', keeping their sharp appendages (teeth, claws, etc), strange 'ears', and yellow-ish to orange-ish eyes. (I'm using the Vampire bat transformation rules here, so they do keep their pants, somehow. Don't ask me about that bit, I'm just trying to keep everything PG-13 man 😭)

While Mermaids can sing quite beautifully, Sirens have the unique ability to mind control the people who are exposed to it. However if the vocal cords, mouth, or general throat area of the Siren is damaged- or if the Siren simply hasn't practiced this power- then they cannot mind control. Some Sirens are simply born without this power as well- only singing a bit nicer-sounding than average. Unfortunately, Char is one of these people; he cannot mind control, and was kicked out of his original Pod for this reason. Fleeing, he eventually found a pirate crew made up of Mermaids and Sirens alike (a strange sight by itself- there's lots of prejudice from both sides), which accepted him. He made his home there, and started a life of stealing, sword-fighting, and generally exciting, happy moments (until they got attacked, but we'll get to that).

While he was originally a pirate and had more pirate-fitting clothes, I'm suiting him with a more grunge-y, punk style (with some pirate clothes sprinkled in) later in the lore that may have not fully shown itself in the photo that I've posted, but i swear he will look stylish and funky in my art eventually, once I have his design down!!!

(Feel free to submit ideas for the designs or clothes that they could wear btw- I need ideas!!)

Lore wise, I had a few different ideas for him, but they all circled back to him being a weird lil pirate so I settled on this:

Originally, he was living with a crew made up of other Sirens and Mermaids (as I said before), parading around stealing anything shiny and fighting other pirate gangs in their (probably stolen) ship. That is, until, they ended up fighting and stealing from the wrong crew and the seemingly small human group came back a few days later with a LOT more people and revenge-fought them, searching for a very important treasure which they stole. The battle ends with Chars Pod being killed off and (if they were deemed 'pretty enough') trophied. Char ends up surviving by hiding with the ships luggage, but eventually he has to bail ship and gains a large amount of injuries in the process. He finds land, but I am unfortunately still workshopping everything beyond that. (I'm focusing on the whole setting rather than the character's lore atm.)

Hope it all sounds interesting so far!

More things will happen with the others and there will obviously be other B-Plots to do with the characters unrelated to Char, but for now I'm just focusing on their world, all the different species, and all their scarred up (speaking of- Char has scars, I swear, I just didn't draw them in that initial pic), weirdo designs :)

I'm making art of their world plus designs for their bases/homes and just general landmarks, so hopefully I can get that out soon!

Thank you again for asking!!

coming back/moving blogs

hey, been a while, hasn't it? i hope you're all doing well! this is my official coming-back-to-tumblr post, but it's a little different than i had originally planned.

i've decided it would be in my best interests to move blogs after a bit of thinking. i feel like coming back here would just feel too awkward for both me and you guys, especially with my now deleted drama post. i just wanna move on from all this bullshit, especially since i've had do deal with a lot of other shit, including college.

it's still @/evrydaygets-darkr, just moved to a different account. i still like the name, so i'm keeping it for now. this account will still be up for archival purposes, but it will never be active again. i hope you understand. (EDIT: changed to @henriiiii-1001 bc of shit that happened w ak recently. see this for more info and this for my official statement on it)

as a general life update, i'm done with my first semester of college!! it's been kinda fun so far! i've made a couple friends here and there, and classes (except for math) were super cool!!! i loved most of my professors, and i am honestly excited for the upcoming semester! ive been artblocked to hell and back though, so i don't have much in terms of new art or writing, but i've been trying my best to get out of it. i also gained a new hyperfixation, which is project sekai: colorful stage (abbreviated as pjsk), so i'll probably be posting abt that quite a bit (btw my fav group is wxs and my fav character is tsukasa :3 ), specifically abt stats and achievements w like song completions, maybe some pulls too!

im also gonna put a few updates on aus and oc stories rq:

for my tmc aus: the big ones i'm working on are getting new masterposts and infodumps for the new blog. i would rb posts from this blog to the new one, but due to some personal stuff i don't feel very comfortable doing that. i havent been able to cook much lore-wise for any of them, but i'll probably get back into the swing of things once i start interacting w you guys again. - for specifically father's duty: i'll hopefully have chapter 3 done soon. it's actually been almost done for a while now, i just need to think of the ending. thank you to those who've stuck with me this far <3 (EDIT: all my tmc aus are discontinued. read above for more info)

for murder files: i'm gonna change up the pacing a bit because i feel like i was going a bit too fast with it. i wanna take my time with it and make it feel as real as possible. it might take me a bit to get fully set up bc im probably gonna have to plan a few steps ahead, which i've barely done. i just need time to plan everything out and draw some shit

i will try to post as often as i can to get back into using tumblr like a true tumblrina (even though i see theyve made some more disgusting changes so yay </3 ), though it'll probably take some getting used to.

i really missed you guys. i'll see you on the flipside.
