reminiscing about childhood books after that ask - all due respect to cool sleek movie toothless....but to me, he will always be a mean little gremlin

#my art #dragon #illustration #how to train your dragon #httyd #httyd books #i love you small toothless. i love you and your beautiful eyelashes. you are not overshadowed to me #also fireworm (top right) and monstrous nightmares as a whole were SO influential on my art and also my ocs #i never thought about it until very recently but my god. my god. so obviously a heavy influence on florawell especially #i drew her a lot as a kid she was my fav. cause she was mean and snooty. nowadays i do appreciate the ugliness of seaslug though #i wanna read the end of that series eventually....get some childhood closure #cressida cowell's drawing style is so charming and good...like drawing intentionally ''bad'' (10000 quotation marks) is so hard to pull off

species medley ft. gorgug and riz

#fantasy high #gorgug thistlespring #riz gukgak #cw: body horror #tbh mostly for the goblin shark jaws lmao. the rest is like. fine I think #ngl drawing like snouts on a humanoid face is kinda awesome I enjoy it #it is kinda a little bit what I aimed for with how I drew riz at first but I pulled back on it #the elephant remix for gorgug I think actually feels a bit more like orc rather than half-orc #maybe the tusks wouldn't get the same lip closure in half-orcs. tho tbh saying that sharing human and orc heritages would result in #consistent physical traits across the board is already kind of a reach I think. I imagine there would be a Lot of variations #and well. at least in spyre we don't see non-human mixed heritages so far... Ive been in my dunmeshi brain lmao #getting to see ryoko kui's art of mixed humans (dunmeshi in-universe term not irl term) is like coming home. thank u ma'am #anyways uhhh I think. I will have refs for every class swap bad kid (at least the full like per-season sets)#fig I'll post separately and then riz and gorgug I'll just include in like a masterpost kinda thing I think #u already know tf is up with them babey!!! just expressing those designs again for convenience #its been really fun figuring these designs out! and necessary if I wanna draw riz bc its literally impossible to doodle him on his own lmao #hes with his friends a lot actually. theyre literally in each others pockets the whole time #anyways! now I sleep. tomorrow? chillin. waiting to watch new nsbu with friend again. see u!

Something I realized (which was obvious to me subconsciously) is that... The family that vehemently didn't accept me when I first came out but now do accept me are still the same family that I am most unwilling to be open about things I feel protective over.

I remember that my dad reacted so poorly, not to my coming out, but to my transition specifically that my therapist was the one to ask if I wanted to put it on my file that I wanted nothing to ever be shared with him about my health after I broke down multiple times due to my anxiety that I would never transition. While there are and were protections for me, I was incredibly fearful at the time because I was a minor, and I was so worried that he would have prevented my transition that I couldn't have said for certain what (if any) lengths he would have gone to to prevent that.

He's grown a lot as a person, and made some commendable strides. But he didn't find out from me when I medically transitioned the second I turned eighteen, and I think that's among the things that truly made him realize the scope of the issue.

I'm not here to guilt trip parents, guardians, or other members responsible for the care of the children or teens or young adults in their care.... but this is a cautionary tale. You aren't saving the people in your care when you do this, you simply reinforce an idea that you will never care for them, never want them as they are, would rather them be shoved away.

When you give people reasons to be secretive, they will behave secretively. When you give people reasons to doubt their safety around you, they will become sneaky, defensive, and withdrawn. When you give people reasons to doubt that you value their life, they will believe that you don't care if they live or not.

#queer #lgbt #lgbtq #ally advice #transphobia #transphobia tw #i always feel the need to preface that i have a rebuilt relationship with my dad specifically...#...but that my experiences with them have served to me in many ways to illustrate... well... what NOT to do if you are in his situation #i do still grieve that my relationship with him looks very scarred and that it took a long time to get to where he is now #but i recognize that in many ways this is a product of the world and culture we live in and that he lived in #in a world he grew up gay was used as a slur. would i expect that trans people would be treated better?#and he was responsible for how he reacted but also... it's nuanced as to why he reacted so poorly #and i want people to AVOID being like he did if they EVER want a decent relationship with the other person #i want this to be a cautionary tale and that my ending is unique. not all of us are even ABLE to repair a relationship that was THAT broken #some of us die trying. some of us never get closure. some of us are in active danger because of those reactions #and that's the more common reality i have found. most other queer people have no-contact with families who pulled the shit my dad had...#...and that's - frankly - a good idea in 99.9% of cases. i will never judge someone for the way they go about dealing with that #i'm just emphasizing that i am unique in the sense that i was able to somewhat repair that

#thinking of dinosaurs and troodontids were my favorite dinosaurs as a child #when younger i had a real full troodontid tooth fossil that meant a lot to me #for a time we lived within a few kilometers of hadrosaur sites and troodontid sites #while wider general area had many sites of recovery for the big celebrities like tyrannosaur and multiple dromaeosaurs #at that time troodontids were kinda infamous for i think the depiction in some childrens field guides and dino books #which depicted like a fantasy speculative humanoid troodontid based on 1980s model at Canadian Museum of Nature in ottawa #anyway would visit a small local paleo center a lot and woman in her 70s or 80s ran the counter of their center and rock shop #one day she asked me what my fave dino was and i said troodon so she pulled out the tooth and just gifted it to me #in little black case size of ring box with padding and transparent plastic viewing cover kinda like laminate for displaying a trading card #tooth got stolen from out my vehicle while giving some people a ride while at university before i got too poor for tuition #later during first year of pandemic owner of my storage unit died and new property owners threw away everything i ever owned #i was homeless anyway lost job due to early pandemic closures and had to allocate any money to insulin and other prescrip meds #but wouldve found a way to save my things if the new owners had contacted me #they threw out photoalbums y backpacking gear y books y musical instruments y clothes y artwork y camera y all family keepsakes #and all childhood treasures like souvenirs and gifts and school awards and writing portfolios and all the little memories #which i was always sentimental about as child #from earliest age my room looked like a natural history museum with plants and maps and library of field guides #and rocks and field trip keepsakes and all kinds of little animal figurines and mother had painted room in forest greens and browns #to feel like a forest and among the succulent plants and a globe sat the troodon tooth #parents passed when i was a child #never near any family and were always moving never got to settle into proper stable place then father passed after long sad illness #and mother put in so much effort but she passed few years later and i could not take care of myself or my remaining material possessions #and so im still quite hurt having nothing whatsoever remaining of my childhood or school friends or mother or life generally #and when trying to process grief my thoughts often come back to the troodontid tooth as a focal point a distillation of what was lost #even when young i knew it was advised not to become too connected to material physical possessions #but still there are some small little trinkets in our lives that seem to hold so much meaning and i tortured myself for losing that tooth #thinking about troodon reminds me of childhood

Do I know you? Do I know you? Do I know you? (Patreon)

#Doodles #SCII #Damned #Helix #DAX #ZEX #The Captain #Dexter Favin #Max Vyer #Yeah if anywhere needed the distinction between Zelnick and Caleb it'd be here lol #Hhhhghghh I love iterative outcomes so muuuuuch #What matchups would result in what dynamics! And of seeing them play out! I want them all!!!!!#Three aliens is wonderful and delightful and endearing and cute and hwahuwahuh - I love them I love them I love the three of them #For all their little squabbles they really get along quite well! ZEX and Zelnick obviously hehe their relationship <3 <3 #But ahh DAX <3 Happiness truly to have them all together ♥#Which makes what they'd be like if they were their ''real'' versions stuck together in the Institute post-Helix So fascinating to me #Would Caleb be angry! He's so sweet... But he was also hurt terribly! And Dexter would Definitely be angry #It really is such an interesting role reversal to me how ZEX is treated with so much respect and DAX follows him with such care #Switching to Dex and Max it's So different Max is ignored where he tries to move and affect and Dex is so - agh!!! It's just so much!#I really do wonder if Max would be able to pull him back if the last of the trio weren't there tho! Since Max ''knows'' Zelnick!!!#No good to go yelling at someone who wasn't there! And Max would have some piece of information Dex wouldn't from his dreams!!#Although presumably Dex would remember DAX :00 Which is its own deep interest! Ah! They're all just So!!!!#DAX out of the loop of the other two humans is quite funny to me haha - Max all paranoid like ''I'm going to be removed''#DAX has long since given up on that ZEX! Wait (lol)#DAX and Zelnick rely a lot on ZEX so the thought of Max completely failing to meet that role hehe <3 Would they all get along as well? :3c #The glue to hold them together ♪ No way DAX would listen to Max would he? Hehehe #Dexter being there would be picking right up from him being outside and agghhh the angst potential wagh agh <3 <3 #Even worse to completely lose his one real tether to himself - at least when Zelnick died there was a kind of sick closure #Able to grieve and move on - tho he never really did :'( But with Caleb there what proof does he have of being ZEX! Aghh <3 #At least the last one would be fairly light I imagine haha - humans humaning! Silliness and mistaken identity (and also poisoning lol)

huh? people don't like the movie arc?? I really liked it... it actually had a lot of things I was looking forward to seeing.. well duh I really love the hikaai ship(I really hope I will be able to as more gets revealed and it gets a conclusion but i'm 90+% sure I will at this rate) but I just really liked it, actually. That arc is the one that helped me understand Ai's character the most and I feel she's THE most well-written character in this series now that's been out there. She was pretty much mysterious until we got to see how she felt about things, and the way she reacts aligned perfectly with her previous portrayals and added to her character. She's so real. and I found she was so loving.

IDOL summarized her character and struggles well. The movie arc had that, and I enjoyed seeing it laid more out in detail. I would have loved to see more happy moments of her because she suffered a lot as well as her boyfriend.. I could read like a whole two volume of books filled and consisting of only that.. I'd buy that like crazy but I take what I can get. At least I can think of a lot of things on my own even based on the small snippets of things.

+Oh!!! I get the context, so it felt rushed..

yeah.. there were certainly scenes I wish would have been developed more, I'm not sure if that's supposed to be hidden or saved for later?; I feel like the final arc would help me judge the arc in full. This was an arc that threw out more questions than answers... but I feel like the author does have things planned. There were a lot of things I liked about that arc still! I keep going back to that chapter w the hikaai date, that's 90% of all my wholesome fanarts bout the ship sprout from... I'm glad there's that to work with along with the angst that comes later. I need happy things

#oshi no ko #I dare say it's one of my favorite arcs actually #depending on how this series gets its closure I feel like that one's going to be the most important arc #I honestly.. really like it.. it's what brought me to come back and draw for the series... it pulled me in #well I mean it was 154 but the buildup was there in that particular arc so

chat is this real 🙁

#my art #adventure time fionna and cake spoilers #adventure time spoilers #petrigrof #wow #i think ive said the word wow out loud like 10 times in the past 20 minutes because im still fucking reeling in sheer disbelief #like. obvi im pulling a ep9&10 (as in i am oversimplifying nuanced and complicated thoughts) but wow #in the big picture it wasnt even like. Horrible it was just badly mediocre #how does a tv14 cartoon get even more dumbed down and babytalk than a y7 one #i was really really worried about this like. like only a few days into waiting for the finale i was less nervous like foaming at the mouth k #inda excited nd more scared they were just gonna. abandon it. nd they did #nd this is such a pattern that i hope there isnt a season two #and something in me almost hopes that this is like. the end because i dont know how they could come back from this or give any more closure #if the biggest idea (or one of) of at is that everything changes i think the other is everything ends and ive felt this since atdl ep 4 but #theyre drinking from a dry creek atp #i hope people continue to love this show as the beautiful complicated thing it is and pretend that that didnt exist #what didnt exist #where am i #(in the same tone of voice as ice king from the beyond the grotto ep)#ill still be drawing at stuff tho i still love it beyond words #tumblr needs to let me add paragraph breaks in tags jfc if i was me reading this i would literally not even read it

Have got to get around to throwing up some more ZEXAL thoughts I've put elsewhere but suffice to say, knowing the pain of losing Durbe, Merag, Gilag, and ALITOOO, the amusement of Vector being Vector throughout it all, and the absolute rage Nasch has for him after that, I'm in deep

#IMA KOKO MIRAI MO BOKURA GA NEGATTE IRU YUME NO KAKERA #CHALLENGE THE GAAAME #that tribute to them boy did it hit #Alito and Gilag's friendship throughout ZII was pretty wholesome/it was nice they got some closure as Alito pulled a Durbe to get DT out #[in that his Counter Trap spared some damage but hit him with it all by the end of the turn]#and Durbe putting his hope in Merag and Merag thinking she won only for Vector to save himself w/ DT's Throne and come back from the brink #i got chills from the sheer livid anger in Merag's voice after finding out what he's been doing with Nasch--and from her losing (that OST)#and Vector being such a troll but also cunning is fun to watch #at this point i'm pretty sold on ZEXAL--it's lived up to the 'gets better' hype for a while now #[also i love Vector's Evil 1 Trap that references Dark Malik vs Dark Yugi]#ZEXAL #Lance watches ZEXAL #yugioh zexal #and now for the fated MOON duel i've heard so much about--and Kite dueling in a spacesuit fun

I always point out Bunk’d on the list of shows with a terrible finale (since S3 was supposed to be the last but it effectively did kill the quality of the show) but having watched the final episodes of Bunk’d that aired last night, I can now actually reaffirm that its ending is shit.

Because oh my god is it shit.

#Bunk’d #Jessie #disney channel #disney sitcom #Disney #lou hockhauser #Camp kikiwaka #I think I owe The Lion Guard and Jake and the Never Land Pirates an apology for their finales #Don’t get me wrong they’re still absolute garbage but I don’t think I felt as burnt out and empty with those finales as I did with this one #Lou gets a random-ass love interest in the last 2 episodes and they pull a soap-opera style fake-out break up #which is like #I have no reason to care this late into the game #but they also rehash the plotline of the characters possibly separating and Lou wondering if she should stay a camp director #As if we haven’t had that plotline used in the last 4 seasons (including the season that was SUPPOSED to be the end)#Again no reason to give a shit #Especially since the status quo remains with Lou staying at the camp #The Ross kids are barely acknowledged or mentioned despite the show originally centering around them #And rather emotional closure that wraps up the loose ends with the series-original characters that were written off the show #and got no closure #instead they pull a Descendants with a dance party ending that doesn’t even fully fade to black by the end #Like what the fuck #My expectations for the series were low because any chance at a ‘good ending’ were thrown out the window with every renewal this show got #But oh my god this finale actually lowered my already low expectations #For years I’ve affirmed that Bunk’d is the perfect example as to why shows should just stay dead after they’ve ended #because if they don’t they can just become a rotting shell of what they’ve used to be and lose any and all quality beyond salvation #which is exactly what happened #And by consequence I am only happy BECAUSE the show ended and not in HOW it ended #But yeah the Jessie franchise is dead and so is Bunk’d lol

the problem of the matter is i did internalize so much of what ex friend believed about me. even though i knew he was wrong and knew what was happening and tried to stop it and if i took more action to stop it would have been abusing power i held in a way i couldn't live with myself for.

#A BAD PERSON TRYING TO RUIN YOUR LIFE WOULD'VE GOTTEN YOU FIRED AND EVICTED IN WINTER IN ALASKA YOU MOTHERFUCKER. WHICH I DID NOT DO #he was renting a room from my dad. for cheaper than he wouldve been able to find anywhere else. his brother was too #his brother didn't pay rent for over 6 months and my dad just forgave him the debt because my dad knew how much of a difference it wouldve #made when he was that age. and i had told him ex friend was family to me & my dad applied that to the brother too. bc he is a good person.#and one of the strongest parts of my support system. and i didn't say a word to him about what was happening until i knew he already had a #plan for when he would be ending ex friend's lease. so there would be no subconscious impact on ex friend's housing either #mgmt at work straight up asked me if i thought ex friend should be fired immediately multiple times and i'm in retrospect livid they put me #in that position but told them to go by the strike system in the employee handbook and to follow policy that ex friend knew perfectly. that #it couldn't be on me as acting assistant manager to choose #and after 10 months of workplace harassment i got a different job to save my life. ex friend didn't get fired.#he did saw trap shit to my brain!!!!!! jesus christ #he moved cross country to live with his long time gf he called his wife despite never having met irl. to a way more conservative state.#despite being gay. and she left him this summer lol #hadn't checked his twitter in over a year when it got pulled up frm an old link and i saw that. and when he was already at a low point too #me voice. oh no who could've seen this coming. from how you behave in every relationship in your life #may delete this in the morning. but i have to talk about it sometimes #i'm never reaching out for closure both bc he wouldn't give me any and because i know it would trigger him and i don't intentionally trigge #people. unlike him :)#vampire pit #like. i have to talk about it sometimes. i have to talk about it.#jam posts

like out of all the many, many traumas ive given elspeth my favorite has gotta be the deep roads lol. and specifically the way she never really got OUT of them. yeah so maybe her body did but not HER. shes still down there with ruck and helspith every time she closes her eyes. and during future expeditions when she goes down into the deep roads for real, it doesnt feel like some horrible nightmare it feels like REALITY and its the surface and love and warmth and alistair thats nothing more than a pleasant dream. one shes always going to wake up from. bc even in her happiest moments she's never not aware of the darkspawn digging up towards her just a few miles under her feet. and never not feeling the eyes of the deep roads looking at her, gleefully waiting for her, and knowing its not going anywhere
