Do you have any tips/resources for getting your gathers so even? Gathers are my nemesis; I’m fine with placing the actual stitches but when it comes time to gather and stitch them down they never look quite right and certainly not as consistent.

This is also something I struggle with, but there's some things that have worked for me:

Two rows of gathering stitches and then you stitch between them

Making your gathering stitches long-short-long-short instead of equally sized gives the gathers a place to go so they're not all bunched up

If you're gathering down a lot of fabric, give your gathers a good steaming and pull them all neatly straight. Then you let the fabric cool down completely and your gathers will have learned to lie a little neater

When you're pinning the gathers down, treat them like pleats and already push them in the direction you want them to go

If you're doing modern garments and have access to a serger, that conveniently already gives two equally sized gathering lines very quickly

And lastly, the really tedious handsewing them down one by one as if they're cartridge pleats:

Hope this covers a bit of your question!

Egg's Gatekeeper

[plotted starter for @sylviareviar]

"Whew... So far so good-"

He was speeding around the Death Egg, having just escaped Eggman's prison after being held captive for six months. He was putting on a front, acting the same as he always did, but in reality this whole thing really messed with his head.

He'd lost. Badly. And while the physical torture he was put through was nothing he couldn't handle (Eggman thankfully didn't have the stomach for much in that department), being shown what was happening down on the planet below... that got to him. He knew his friends were still fighting, but he had no idea how many were left, or if things really were as dire as the doc had made them seem.

It didn't really matter. All that mattered was getting back home, and maybe freeing some of the prisoners he came across along the way.

He was in the home stretch now, just outside the hanger bay and speeding down the catwalk after having jumped off a fighter craft. If he could smash through the security measures here, there'd be nothing stopping him or any of the other escapees from taking a shuttle and getting out of there.

Though of course, things were rarely that simple.

He skidded to a stop about a dozen meters away from the end, where there was a rather large superbadnik waiting for him. It was simple in its design, same as all the other scrap bots he'd been running into this time around. What made it unique was the large capsule shaped piece in the center, glowing with a strange, yet familiar energy that pulsed through its body.

"... Yeah, I suppose I should've expected Egghead to have someone to usher me out."

He started stretching as he slowly approached the big bruiser. Something told him this thing was going to be more of a challenge than Zavok and his dumb bee bot.

"Alright, fair warning. I've blitzed through everything else in this place, and I doubt you'll be any different. So, you wanna get out of the way so I can free your captives, or am I gonna have to scrap you too?"

He sounded cockier than he felt. The truth was he was a bit out of practice after all his time imprisoned here. And while he was still confident he'd win, he doubted he could get through unscathed.

Still... nothing's stopped him so far-

Thank you so much @birdmenmanga for the tag! I’ll add some brief description of each cause why not lol. Might be a little bit spoilery.

Jim Hawkins: A rebellious teen with daddy issues thrown into an impromptu adventure across the galaxy to uncover the location of a planet long thought to be a myth. (Treasure Planet)

Clementine: Growing up in the zombie apocalypse is tough but she makes it work, despite all the trauma of losing almost everyone she loves. An absolute badass and is living her best life currently, the comics aren’t canon to me. My beloved Apocalypse Daughter 🥺 (The Walking Dead Game Series)

Vision floated before the door to Miss- Wanda, she said that he should call her Wanda and he was attempting to override his natural inclination to formality that was most likely a vestige of the AI Jarvis, in order to do as she requested. He knocked on her door- also a request from her. Do not simply walk through walls. Humans knock. Humans used doors. Such things were foreign to him. His memories of existence prior to his creation did not involve having a centralized body. The idea of simply being in a space, and that he could possibly invade the space of others was- odd. He was doing a great deal of research on the psychology and sociological practices of person bubbles. He felt he was making good strides, but most of the Avengers still found him- off-putting- in his lack of intrinsic knowledge of interpersonal signaling. He walked through the door to find Wanda as she often was, on her bed and smiled at him. "Hello Wanda, I thought perhaps we could continue our viewing of situational comedies?" @scarlet-at-her-fingertips

"Uh, I want to achieve enlightenment like my dashing prince." Sorry Keine, Saki short-circuited on the question and stood outside your school this entire time. "I'm Kurokoma Saki!"

"Enlightenment? Dashing prince?" What kind of person was she? Keine didn't know, but she certainly didn't sound like she was talking about schooling. "I'm sorry, Miss Saki, but I'm not sure this is the place to find things like that... this is a school for things like calligraphy, or arithmetic. But there's a temple at the village outskirts that would surely be helpful, if it's enlightenment you seek." She didn't want to have to tell the... youkai? That all the children she taught were human. But even if she took on youkai students, 'enlightenment' wasn't something she taught.

Unfortunately, she didn't recognize the name Kurokoma Saki, or her reaction at this point would have been far, far different.

Oh, well thank you! This looks really good! You must be quite the chef if this is what constitutes as "crappily iced."

@saintsdawn , ❛ Is that a challenge ? ❜

It seemed preordained , that light & shadow should forever find themselves at odds. It mattered not what form Day & Night took , they were fated to chase each other in an unending & vicious cycle , one hoping to smother the other. He can't say he blamed them , even he found the creatures of the light to be such unbearable company. ❛ No. ❜ Spoken with such a deficiency in enthusiasm it practically created a vacuum in the space between them. He looked at her like fire would behold water , knowingly & with every assurance they'd destroy each other if they actually came to blows.

Contrary to the dourness her expression implied , which he could only describe as clenched like a fist , he quite enjoyed drawing breath & especially enjoyed doing so , if the reminder of his living status actively drew her ire. ❛ I'm flattered you want to put your hands on me , but I suggest you keep them at your sides. ❜

Favorite extinct animal?

Hrmmmm, I’ve gotta be honest, I don’t really have a singular favourite haha but I’ll say the ones that I think are pretty cool

Haast’s eagles, which were basically these huge eagles that lived in nz and hunted moa, when I was little I wanted to ride one because I thought it would be awesome but obviously I probably wouldn’t have been able too, even if they were still alive.

pterosuars because flying reptile!!?!! So cool but also I just like the look of the long tail

I probably have others but I can’t remember right now but thanks for asking :D

For the AU ask, She-Ra AU : Android Adora ? (I love the art cerocrown made for it)

Thanks for the ask!

Ohhh! I really like that AU!

1. When Adora and Catra were young, Adora slipped and scrapped up her knee badly. She went to the infirmary to get it bandaged up and when she and Catra talked about it later Catra swore she saw metal under Adora’s skin. They laughed it off.

2. When Adora found out she was an Android she asked for a feast to prove that she could eat and jumped in the ocean to prove she could swim. Nothing changed the small bits of red she saw in her eyes.

3. During the Portal and Remember, Adora’s Android form started acting up and would glitch from time to time. This made her arms and her legs move funny. While talking to Entrapta, she accidentally kicked one of the robots. Punching Catra was not a glitch.

4. When she got rid of the sword, her Android form became her default appearance. It took everyone a while to get used to her but she still operated as Adora would. Prime recognized the tech right away and knew she was a machine made by the First Ones. When Catra went against him, he threatened that a machine’s programming can be rewritten.

5. After the war Adora returned to her regular form. Catra didn’t care that Adora was an machine though and it became a forgotten issue over time. Both of them wished they had remembered to tell Finn though.

EXACTLY, you DO get me, and yeah, I too don't like the idea of getting pregnant, it's just the primal feel of it all that gets me going, one track mind you know.

Imagen having sex with your partner and it's their first time, they have a lot of pent up sexual frustration too quelch. They would be shaking from the amount of pleasure they would feel, trying to process it all. Trying to keep moving while their mind is in another place only to be brought back by you moaning their name. They can't, it's too much, they move on their own making you moan even louder. Saliva spills from their mouth as they drill into you totally enamoured by the sight underneath them, can't help but make them grow. You're exactly what they want, what they need, and they won't be letting go for a while.

Not gonna lie I'm big on receiving rather than giving but there's something so hot about pleasuring someone so nervous and sensitive. Having them quiver underneath you. Them letting out cute little whimpers and moans with each stroke. They try to muffle their own sounds, embarrassed by how they're body is reacting to this but fail, mewling a bit too loud as you hit a peculiar spot. And that's just when you're getting started.

Oh, and don't even get me started on the size differences.

Oh I love this 👀👀

Personally, i’m more of a top leaning switch. Its stuff right here that is a big reason why 👀 making a partner feel so good, they begin to lose themselves?

Like yes, its great to be the one receiving, but seeing someone melt and become a lil drunk on the pleasure as you take care of them? 😩👌

AND SIZE DIFFERENCES

there are reasons I love characters like Dracula and Ganondorf, and its not just their character and design, but I love me some tall characters, being on the shorter side myself 😳😳😳

You just know those two especially are packin 👀👀👀

[pomellon]

Thank you for the tag @negativepeanuthoarder!!

Get to know me;

Last song I listened to: Been listening to Staryuceleste’s FOR THE COMPANY for like a whole week now! Both to fuel some ideas for the royalchaos dragon au but also just because the "-are you injured are you stressed are you dead" part is just the mood of the year :D 

Currently watching: Been rewatching Attack on Titan with Art Wife and our friend “Helen”!

Current obsessions: Bytham… a whole lot of Bytham and Assassin’s Creed in general still. Also a whole bunch of ClanGen! I might have been working on setting up a blog and sketching out character profiles and some comics, but I won’t be posting anything until I have a backup queue.

As usual I won’t tag anyone in fear of double tagging but feel free to jump on the train <3
