This ref is a little old but I never posted it! This is my pc(2) Sunny! She's an unintentional crossdresser, everybody thinks she's a boy cuz she's kinda ugly. She loves being silly and big boobz !! Technically she's an angel catgirl but I forget to draw the cat/angel features lol. Her main LI is Eden but she likes pretty girls the best
#dol pc#degrees of lewdity#I have a lot of ideas for her that I'll share eventually maybe both her and Vinny (pc1) got a bunch of lore#But basically she's a huge fucking loser that gets bullied but she thinks shes so skibidi simga#Puts on a confident front#but shes got a low pain tolerance so shes a bit of a crybaby#She's also scarred inmate's daughter but she doesn't know thats her dad gasps !! drama#dol eden#dol whitney#if u squint

i havent been able to go back to my halau in a long time so im making kouao go instead
(if u need context on what they're doing, it's called tahitian dance or ori tahiti, you can find a very famous performance here)
#dmmd#dramatical murder#fem dmmd#aoba dmmd#koujaku dmmd#kouao#ori tahiti is a very lower body intensive dance and considering how my fem aobas built its perf for her#but ofc she has to be with koujaku bc it says do not separate on their packaging#theyre both really bad at it fyi koujaku just puts up a confident front to seem cool in front of her gf#like a loser

Willow | Spike - Clothing
“Why are you still in costume?” “Okay, still having to explain wherein this is just my outfit.”
#I call this 'costume motif' my beloved#I feel like both characters wear their hearts on their sleeves#So let’s take a look on their actual sleeves#Obviously everyone’s clothes tell a story and their character growth but I feel like these two are hyper aware of it#Its costume its armor I think they rely on it almost weaponize it#Spike i feel is relatively up on the times for a vampire yet he hasn't changed his style in 20 years#He's found his bad boy rebel image and he's gonna cling to it dammit#And Willow needs her clothes to showcase her pride/rebellion/growth as a lesbian wicca#Their clothing means to them hey look at me I'm not a loser nerd/fool anymore I got power and confidence in spades#But its just a front - superficial but clothes equal security blanket#I think they put too much power in their clothes because they're convinced it can control how people see them#But more importantly so it can control how they see themselves#btvs#mygifs#ok i made the nonsense gifset now will my brain stop this random buffy obsession or is this just a phenomenon that will hit me every decade#buffy the vampire slayer#myfaveposts

Akashi on the mind (because who the fuck else lives in my head rent free) and I was just thinking about he's not only good at everything but he also makes everything look easy and that's why people feel comfortable putting so much faith in him/putting him on a pedestal. Especially because Akashi makes it so that he appears to have no weak spots when that could not be farther from the truth. It's all just an image to hide the fact that he's not perfect. But you know what? I think, for the sake of humanizing him, the rest of the KNB cast needs to see Akashi do something and struggle while doing it.
People need to be able to look at his face and feel like they can physically hear the gears turning in his head. I need him to attempt something and then everyone watches him space out for an extended period of time while he figures out how the fuck he's gonna actually do the thing. Let him be clumsy as he finds his way. Let him have a trial-and-error process. Let him be successful at doing something while still having the privilege of not getting it right the first time. LET HIM NOT BE PERFECT.
#akashi is fr just like everyone else#that whole thing in the replace plus chapters where akashi says he's never lost at anything#sorry sweetheart but im calling major cap#youre telling me even as a young child you were the best at everything?#even as a toddler?#i think its a front because hes afraid to shatter peoples expectations#hes confident in his skills because he has no choice#insecurity implies weakness and akashi doesnt want to be seen as weak#so he puts on airs and walks around like he's undefeatable so no one can argue with him#dont get me wrong he is incredibly skilled at pretty much everything he does#but skill does not come without immense practice#behind a finished product are several different drafts and akashis skills are no exception#one day i hope hell be brave enough to admit it#kuroko no basket#akashi seijuro

Growing closer than expected (Patreon)
#Doodles#Pokemon#Kabu#Larry#Firebland#Silverstreakshipping#To the shock of no one this is Zarla's fault (lol)#Bad influence! Too inspiring! Stop this! I'm totally not culpable for Being Inspired for the [X]th time now definitely lol#I kept finding little ideas popping into my head with them and I mean if I've already doodled them Once I guess I could try a couple more#Learned them just well enough to keep finding things for them pft#Although I am surprised by just how easy I find Larry to Draw - not necessarily that I'm fully Confident in drawing him yet but like#There's very little struggle to the shapes I put down here and I'm fairly pleased with their configuration haha#Kabu on the other hand!! Why is he so hard to draw!!! What!! Like I know his clothes are complex but no his face!#He's got a really cute and difficult-to-draw face! Why! I cannot figure him out#It's probably the do with the shape and size of his head...his hair........ I really enjoy fluff and he's Kind of but Not Really fluffy??#And his white streaks aren't intuitive to me - but Larry's floofs are??? I don't know#The only thing I can figure it that I Kind Of draw Dexter the same way - Larry's streaks are like an exaggerated version of how I floof Dex#And then a suit is second nature by now but I've already talked about my difficulties with Kabu's clothes lol#Didn't stop me from putting him out front for this hug tho! It's cute... Kabu asking Larry to come play with him but Larry has stuff to do#May or may not have felt a little that way myself - made most of these doodles during Requestober haha so busy!#The brightly shining brilliant glow boyfriend setup-payoff returns ♥ He glows like a fire! Overwhelming!#I still really love that glow cutaway style around the low-bouncing flower haha - just don't draw there and it gives the impression! Fun :)#Hugs <3 Unsurprisingly been in the want of cute fluff and sweetness and hugs were very on the menu#It really is fun to think of Larry being just a Little weird about how much he feels for Kabu#Acting childish as that part of him hasn't had the chance to grow and mature! Stuck awkward and gangly in otherwise full development#Feelings so big and strong and immediate for the first time in too too long <3 Gotta express them all somehow#And ending off with a bit of silliness haha - was Kabu prompting him just to hear such an answer? Who knows ♪#Larry just too straightforward haha - why else would he do or say things unless he felt like it! Pfsh obviously#Haha

I need to know… do you think Royal margarine is scared of bugs? Like would he scream and climb on top of furniture with a pantufla in hand ready to throw it (horribly) at the bug or is he a brave guy and just carefully takes the bug outside again?
(Please don’t mind this very oddly specific question, I just think it would be neat if you drew Royal margarine with a little (or big) buggy creature)
OH DEFINETLY THE FIRST ONE
he for sure SAYS he would confidently take the bug outside for you if asked and the bug would be safe and everything would be fine but i dont think he could actually even throw anything at it, hed cower behind buttercream until the bug either just leaves on its own or someone else takes care of it
this also reminded me of this one meme everybody was drawing from however long ago and i wanted to do it for such a long time and i did im sorry couldnt contain myself
also a bonus little doodle of him actually getting the courage to carry said buggy
he would only do this if forced to take care of it by himself with no outside help and then he'd be fine and boast about it for the next 2 hours
#a lot of words just to say hes afraid of bugs#but im mentally ill about him#i think this is actually rlly a cool topic to discuss because it tackles his internalized masculinity and the need he feels to look#confident and strong for other people to look up to him and that he can never actually do those things himself because its just a front#and he never lets himself feel his own fears and emotions because hes always putting up that facade#but hey you didnt hear me ramble just now#characters that bottle their emotions to put up a facade of confidence arent my favorite trope ever what#im gonna stop talking#royal margarine cookie#cookie run fanart#cookie run kingdom#royal margarine crk#royal margarine cookie fanart#cookie run#cookie run kingdom fanart#crk#questions and rambling and stuff#my art and my stuffff

im weeding and taking them out one at a time (cant supervise both while distracted) and lyra got ages of dirttime and still looks deeply aggrieved now pan's out
#lyra#pan#explaining to my cat the idea of taking turns#lyra stayed out for ages and eventually wanted to go to the backyard and had to be forcibly put back in (about which she of course whined)#pan came out ate some grass and sniffed a few things then waited by the front door like ok done ^-^#boy you are so timids. getting him a bucket of cocaine which i think will help instill confidence. not taking feedback on this plan

You said ask abt Ami so... More abt her home planet? And how often did she tinker with those cyber guts djdnkdnskssn ;D
OKAY this took me a while to put down about because her lore isn’t fully fleshed out, so its all subject to change.. but the gist is her home planet was a really nice island planet that was taken under the strategic investment department’s wing after a stellaron threat and became indebted to them. as time passed, the ipc took advantage of the natives, and had a few clashes with them that were all erased from history — ami’s family sans her sister had died in one of these rebellions. the planet rapidly developed and some natives joined with the ipc, some still clung onto their traditions and fought against the ipc.
ami was one of those who remember the way the planet was before the ipc came, wanting to honor her dead elders and wanting to preserve their ways, angry at the ipc for everything they’d done. but her sister had only grown up with the ipc, got an education because of them and even got a job there, life did seem to get easier under the ipc… so yayyy conflict!!! (ami becomes a galaxy ranger to fulfill a childhood dream she and her sister both had and also to run away from confronting her feelings on the state of her home :D)
and she’s ALWAYS tinkering with them cyber guts B) ever since they met :,D
#hsr oc#im not very confident in my writing ;-; but i hope yall can get the idea of the conflict here#the ipc will always be an antagonistic force in my eyeballs#and ami thinks so too but its more complicated bc her sister is apart of them.#she isnt as strong willed as boothill since she’s still got her home and her family kinda#she’s still afraid of the ipc#she just puts on a cool collected front#LORE DROP‼️#ami

Remembered someone saying that Desuhiko blushes when Yuma says he's impressed with him in his 3rd Gumshoe Gab and I thought "they don't mean that literally right?"
Well.
#robin talks#rain code#desuhiko thunderbolt#yuma kokohead#kokobolt#desuhiko acts all high and mighty like he's got the confidence of a mountain#but i think it's a front he puts up for himself#so when someone actually and genuinely says something nice to him#he doesn't know how to react and the front fades#further proving my point:#right before this yuma says ''I see..'' and desuhiko gets upset and goes ''after everything i've shared- nothing?''#which leads to the above happening#and right after the last screenshot he goes and I quote#''y-yeah I knew it! that's the reaction I was expecting!"#which is so clearly a load of lies#me thinks maybe the self-esteem issues are still kind of there hmmmm#(hi if you've read this i hope you have a nice day)

Yeah I bet experiencing romantic love is a great emotion and all but has a mouse ever put it's tiny tiny paws on your hand as you offer it a little snack.
#do they know i love them#they're so teeny tiny and I'm so big and yet and yet Hamid trusts me enough to climb on my hand or just put his little paws on my hand#I'm gonna cry about it#bilbo too but he's not as confident yet#i bought them a new hay ball cause they loved it so much the last time#they're so little and they know when i get up in the morning and when i return from work#even tho daylight savings has confused them#but when i walk into the living room they're there and they run to the front and they look at me with their little eyes ;-;#duck talks bullshit#this is what love is about actually#romantic love this platonic love that what about the love for those tiny creatures who live in my living room and recognise me#sorry for mouse posting on main i bought food for them and got emotional#<- not sorry

"You okay?"
"Mhm."
"Good, now go get ready and wish for the best."
#outer range s2#outer range s2 spoilers#outer range 02x03#maria olivares#rhett abbott#isabel arraiza#lewis pullman#pls not him taking her hand and both of them smiling about it#i think her saying that rebecca being with amy is one less mystery to worry about was her being concerned about what's bothering him#like she's not going to pry this time if he doesn't want to confide in her about it#but she wants to give him the opportunity to talk to her about it if he wants to thus the ''are you okay?''#and i'm glad he feels comfortable enough to talk to her about some family matters#also them asking each other if the other is okay is everything to me#idk if it's just me but rhett looks pretty cautious but also protective of her in the second gif?#i love that she decided to speak up because it bothers her that rhett might be hurting#and to me it looked like he was also proud of her for speaking up#rip her putting her hand on his arm before she said ''have a good night'' made me sad#i would be hurt if my loved one felt like they would be shut down if they were to speak in front of my family#i get that they don't like her but why invite her at all?#he really felt better after holding her hand#also his little smile after she says going to court wouldn't be a great idea was kinda cute#i'm only slowing down because i'm stuck watching their happier scenes because i'm SCARED#i just know he wanted to stay in that bed with her... i mean i would#geez he really gets to wake up to that... lucky man#i love her tiniest smile after his after she said meeting his parents again at court would be a bad idea#just the softest ''morning'' ever#idk but when she started with ''i'm sorry'' i felt like he was gonna tell her not to apologize or something#i wanted to see him run after her and ask if she was okay tbh#his chair really was pointed toward hers... he's such a LOSER#i think she put her other hand over his when he held her hand...

attempting to map out 221b
#not confident about the ground floor other than the kitchen and bathroom are next to each other cause plumbing#there might be a small window in bedroom 1 ground floor cause the wall seems to not be blocked on the outside#yea bedroom 2 ground floor is noisy af cause street lvl windows and double staircase foot traffic lol#originally I was going to shove the bathroom under the staircase lol#yeah so idk where to put the attic staircase#also the attic interior is way too long to fit in the roof#unless the attic is the mf tardis#anyway do not hold me to this lol#lmao updated commentary ->#changed up the layout based on new info and some comments I got on the first/rough version#it's still not 1:1 to the canon designs but I've tried to place things in a way that make sense and fit into the building (sorta)#the interior only makes sense if the building was way bigger than it's depicted as#also I wanted to put the attic access in the closet but it didn't fit right#been treating the windows on the side of the building fast and loose cause man idk I don't get paid to do this#the only way it makes sense that there's light coming through from both the back and front windows is if there's an open enough space behind#maybe the building behind 221b is like.. long and narrow. or L shaped or something idk#still don't know how I feel about the main and attic stairs placement and layout but they work(?)#reference#ref

All eleven pieces of my Yule dress cut out and ready for sewing!
And the swiffer-type dust cloth I used to wipe down all the velvet fuzzies after cutting out each piece. Despite my best efforts there's still velvet lint everywhere, and probably will be until this project is done, lol.
#my sewing#velvet Yule dress#2024 mood#fwiw the sleeves are laid on top of the skirt -- but upside down with the shoulder near the end of the skirt#and I _still_ can't see any difference in the nap on this velvet#I might have been able to squeeze the pieces in slightly tighter if I was really confident about the no-nap situation#but even cutting everything with the same end of the fabric as the 'up' I still ended up with a nice buffer of left over fabric#just long enough to re-cut a piece or two if I really needed to. but thankfully I don't think I'll have to#there were a couple of little marks on the velvet from where I hung the fabric while it was wet after I handwashed it#I managed to avoid cutting a piece directly on top of any of them -- or so I thought#then I found a little round marred spot right below the waist on one side-front panel#pretty visible and the sort of thing I would notice all the time even if no one else would#so I thought about re-cutting that panel and checked to make sure I had enough fabric#but then I thought: why not at least try to iron out that spot before trashing the whole panel?#since it's already been washed the key is getting it wet again and then ironing it on a velvet board with zero pressure just heat and steam#so I used a little spray bottle to put water just right where the spot was (spraying on the back) and then steamed it dry with my iron#with the fabric face-down on the velvet board. by the time the water was all steamed off the spot was completely gone!#so thankfully I don't have to re-cut anything. which means that I have enough left over for another small project or two later on#next step on this project will be doing a little stay-stitch ~1/8'' in from the edge of the fabric#and then I can start pinning pieces together and sewing the long princess seams#I am so excited to make this pile of fabric into an actual dress! :D

I think Modern Au Suletta would be a Glass Child
#Eri would probably have a chronic illness that kept most of the Samaya/Mercury family at the hospital#Suletta loves her sister but clearly doesn't realize the neglect she's experiencing#like it got worse when Nadim (?) died and Prospera/Elanor would sometimes guilt trip Suletta whenever Suletta tries to ask for something#Suletta ending up just not asking or speaking up on anything#and feeling lonely and sad makes her guilty cus she has it better than her sister#Eri is still able to do stuff but just very limited activities and she's just always fatigued#i feel like Eri would feel like shes an awful older sister bcs of her condition#They both love each other so much they fill each other's loneliness.#sorry ive been thinking about this so much.. its microwaving in my head and i cannot draw it rn#Eri puts up a more confident but also a chill front because Suletta is usally so anxious#heheheh#im just making up angst#man#i miss g witch#g witch#gundam the witch from mercury#gundam#suletta mercury#ericht samaya#the witch from mercury#elnora samaya#prospera mercury#Nadim samaya#i think#i forgor
