Hi Ruby! Do you have any recs for leon/chris? Kinda in a reading stump right now 😔🫶🩵 -🐚

Hiii! And I get you, I have barely read anything related to Leon these last few weeks since nothing has caught my attention, but !!! I can recommend you some of my favorite fics here.

For Chris I only have one which is Blizzard by @lightning-hawke . I really really love it!

For Leon I have just two (For now). I tried to keep it as *tame* as possible since I don't really know what you like in fics but these ones are definitely my favorites!

Lord knows it would be the first time by @kianely lives rent free in my head! I don't know if they are still active but all of their works are top tier for me.

I also really like @leonw4nter fics. If I had to choose I would say I love you without wax. Forever yours, Leon is definitely my favorite. If you're in the mood to cry, give it a chance.

[Start ID. A drawing of @mieczmaszyna 's character Izzy. In the words of its creator, Izzy is a humanoid robot with a white chassis, oval head, black headset, square green glasses, claws, and a tail resembling a cable plug. Ai wears a cowboy hat, vest decorated by a star and bottle cap, pants with tassels, spurred boots, and a red bandanna. He's viewed from the side, kicking up one leg and holding both arms out in front of itself to shoot finger guns, looking excited and rather jaunty. The background is a dull yellow-green, muddied by the warm reddish tone of the drawing, and in paler green are the words "BANG BANG!!" by ais arms. End ID]

robot cowboy!!!

a lil late night reminder: no matter how you choose to run your blog, or how you may write your muse, you have a place here. as long as you're having fun and finding joy through having a roleplay blog, that's all that matters in the end. <3

sooooo... *twirls her hair* how many asks should i send until kuwagami art. jk as well. the real question will be: does it happen often that someone else’s art inspires you? in fandom spaces specifically

well you see it’s like a loyalty card program, every 10 asks or so you get a complimentary kuwagami

just kidding you can just breathe in my direction and I’ll be tempted to draw them. kuwagami blast! (you've caught me on a... just okay art day lol)

(people still like kabedons, right?)

anyway for my actual answer: in terms of direct inspiration, it doesn't really happen much? the last two times i did art directly based on someone else's work is probably this one from this fic, and also that time i drew art of someone else's judgment au. oh! and there's that moriohpsycho art based on this comic! (filthyguts' work is so very. hgngngghh. very good.) nothing else really comes to mind, and when i think of the other things i've been into recently there hasn't been as much opportunity for that to happen...

flex and herds = strong fixation but lmao. almost nobody else made stuff about them. nobody is surprised umineko = surprisingly i don't read much umineko fanfiction? and in terms of illustration, i certainly picked up imagery and indirect inspiration but nothing concrete enough for me to give an example... now that i think about it, i did once draw andromalius from redaction/sunny, but that was years ago, and also mostly because i was acquainted with the writer. ...i don't have that artwork on hand right now death note = didn't really get involved with the fandom + i enjoyed my own ideas well enough! ...i can't recall if i drew long-hair-L art before or after seeing other artists do it. and as for everything else the same kind of reasoning applies. didn't really get involved with the fandom or wasn't really compelled to make art in response to stuff i saw, or i just don't remember anymore.

buuuuuuut if we're opening this up to just... pulling ideas from other people? then yeah, all the time, though that kind of goes without saying when you have a creative hobby. ...it's probably going to be hard to come up with examples of this since it's more ambiguous.

there's uhhhhhh... kuwana listens to nickelback which was a @/four-white-trees invention, wasn't it? (EDIT: and @/overdevelopedglasses!) (not tagging in this post so he doesn't feel obligated to read my big ass ask responses 💀) as of writing this, it's not posted but i did end up making kuwagami art based on a nickelback song so. yknow. there's that LMAO

for sawashiro and arakawa, i do sometimes go reference @/todayisafridaynight 's art to help me with my own. ("how did he draw this part of the suit? oh, like that huh? hmm" <- this kind of thing)

and um. i'm not trying to pander to you (at least not this time), but genuinely it's one of the few examples that come to mind at this moment. but when i was writing my first kuwagami fic, i could feel the influence of the ever-changing on my brain... was turning over some of your ideas there...

you remember this? (you even pointed it out in your comment on my fic, and i should've said something then, but whatever i'm saying it now)

that was absolutely because of this

(obligatory poke at anybody else reading this post that you can read passthroughtime's fic here.)

so, um. yeah. not really sure what else to add to that. pretty self evident i think. (i'm always talking about the ever-changing but i don't think i can overstate the impression it left on me at the time)

anyhow there aren't really any other examples off the top of my head! these are all recent examples so they're not so difficult to recall, but there are probably others i've forgotten...

[jessicas-pi]

it's actually, genuinely, honestly hilarious that in a fandom where popular ships include characters who are biologically related, characters with a 10+ year age gap who met when one was a teenager or even a child, and characters who have tried to kill each other, people hate on a friends-to-lovers ship with a <2 year age gap where the characters have a deep emotional bond and plenty of romantic subtext, because "they're siblings". my brother in the force they are literally not.

Hellooo I am currently hyperfixated on something that isn't twomp right now so I haven't drawing anything twomp related in the past couple of days. I have however been drawing a whole bunch of stuff and posting it on my side blog recently so if anybody wants to see what I'm up to over there the @ is in my bio :))

[that-was-anticlimactic]

okay i'm sorry mutuals did i miss something in the three and a half hours i was driving is booping just a thing now is it a meme 😭

[solradguy]

transphobes suddenly think they become loremastersTM when they have opinions on bridget because they parrot some misconstrued lore but when you ask them how do you block an overhead they’re like i don’t really interact with the community so i don’t know the language :/

No way are people STILL arguing that Bridget isn't trans MONTHS after Daisuke Ishiwatari himself wrote bilingual (trilingual..? do they post the devlogs in Korean..?) statements in clear as hell writing about how she's a trans woman??? Seriously???????

I remember when she was first released and suddenly everyone was N1 turbo master level at Japanese language and culture too lol

"Well Ackshually the 9th reading on this kanji that I looked up just now on Jisho that only shows up in Arcade Ending B in one line invalidates ur point" <- only knows the の hiragana because of memes

I fucking HATE how the fandom treats m.ine. it's so bad 😭

[tunastime]

hey tuna ^-^ do you have other rare pairs you like ^-^

(I'm giving you the mic to ramble as much as you want hehe ^-^_ 🎤)

hiiiiiiii artsy :3

so I actually sat and thought about this all night and into the morning today to think about this because I really need to get MORE than I already have. because I love to provide <3

recently got on the casual cleosuma train as you know because I really love how cleo and xisuma interact so playfully with each other. and I think cleo cares a lot about their friends in general and the way they show it is sometimes not so obvious/kind of mixed into how they act with people in general. i think it's also what makes cledubs so intriguing, because cleo is just kind of playfully mean to their friends and collects these (often argumentative) guys they can mess with. they're very "yes and" to me. I like the dynamic a lot, and I think cleo wouldn't let xisuma beat himself up at all.**

I don't think it counts but I fell very deeply very quickly into exhels, which I assumed was a lot more popular than I later found out on ao3 LOL. I think all that needs to be said is they should not be with anyone else. their toxic yaoi is there own <3

um. looks around. been getting really into uh. welsno. I'm afraid I'm not allowed to speak much on the topic lest someone bite me but I really like how hypno kind of brings out wels' silly. wels is already a cheerful guy with a pranking streak, but I think when it comes to hypno he's willing to go above and beyond rules lawyer with him, which I loved in season 10 so far. them being neighbors changed me. I think they would gossip with each other.

and if it wasn't already clear, tangtho is so near and dear to my heart. yes they are friends. but I think they could also be not just friends. I think redstoners should fall in love, and I think etho and tango match each other's freak very well. there's something between them that just kind of clicks with how they handle intricate redstone projects and how they build, and I feel like they understand how each other's minds work really well. plus etho's obsession with decked out and now he has the minigame curse. telling!

if it counts at all, since it was the only yogs related ship I could think of, shep and myke got me horribly into bangarry (bedgar/angorytom/brryhrry (ben, tom, and harry)) and I'm still here fawning over them. I think they're a criminally underrated trio and there's something wrong with them. they're also only together because shep and myke said so and then brought me along for lore reasons. <3

**kind of partially related to xisuma and co, but I found after watching stress I think her and xisuma kind of sound similar! and I started to run with a sibling theory that i think more people should investigate :3c

OKAY! that unfortunately was all I could think of and is dreadfully lacking in lesbians. please submit to me all of your favorite ships so I may partake in the joy of knowing them. this has been a tunastime PSA.

thanks artsy!!!!!

I'll stop posting wips eventually but it's been five days since I've said anything and I don't want anyone to think I'm dead/dying/stuck in a ditch and withering away, so here's 10% of the reason I disappeared (the duck is stuck in rendering hell) (and my little baby laptop is screaming at me every time I open up this file)

I might still be mostly lurking for a little bit so please be patient with me in the meantime 🙏🙏
