"And did he ask you to wear that, or did you just nick it?"

GAAAH i’ve been obsessed with @conkers-thecosy ‘s fic Backs to the Wall… this story is literally everything and took me through so many incredible twists and turns, i wanted to draw one of my favourite moments as a thank you 🙈 everyone go read it NOW!!!!

A thing!

Context: Latter goes on a walk on a morning during his family’s stay at Howdy’s and spots Quincy making snow castles. Quincy, excited to see someone new, invites him over and the topic of poems comes up and eventually this scene happens. Latter reciting his poems to Quincy who then gives some feedback.

——————————-

Did I (not)suddenly imagine a friendship between Latter and Quincy? Yes.

Is there potential for a ship? …….perhaps. Mentally I’m taking that really slowly as I get used to Quincy being a character and figuring out what they might be like as a person. Orientation and their preferred partner (or lack thereof) being one of those things.

PART 2 of finding out what Lotus would look like in each TMNT universe~ Here she is in 2007, Rise (the movie specifically), and TMNT vs Batman!!! (All of these had references and I did trace to get the body shapes proportionate, as well as all the backgrounds are screenshots I did NOT draw them!)

I knew 2007 was going to be hard- and MAN WAS IT. I never do "realistic" shading and lighting like the movie, so this was very much a challenge for me. I am happy with how it turned out though! There's still some things I gotta work on when it comes to rendering skin and how to add lighting/shading, but overall, it was really fun with practicing something new!

I already had ideas on what Lotus would look like in Rise, (it helps that my style was heavily influenced by the Rise movie), so her design in that universe was very easy to decide on. :) She's a mix of both Mikey and Leo's height and build, (seeing how her age range is between the two), and I gave her a few extra stripes to help her fit into the dazzle of the Rise world. :)

EHEHHEHEHE TMNT vs Batman is my favorite of the TMNT movies, so I knew I had to draw Lotus in that style. I didn't realize how simple the turtles' designs were in it! There's mostly shading, no lighting, and there's not much texture of the gear or skin. So this version was finished the quickest out of all of them. :)

Alright! I think that's all the universes I'll draw her in- (I think), soooo yeah! Thanks for joining me on this little drawing challenge!

To God be the glory!

they took over my brain and my journal

created by me ♡ with scissors and a glue stick in my two hands and yaoi on my brain. using various magazines, ft some stickers from the dollar store, & the black n white images r printed from a thermal label printer !

the last one isnt technically stobotnik but the vibes are related i think so it gets to be included in the spread

“When my skin feels like a barrier between /Everything else in this universe and me / Then I try to remember / That there may very well be a link between us / That I can't see / Something underneath the surface / Buried / In among the weeds.”

ID: A watercolor painting outlined with ballpoint pen of a human heart. The heart has been colored brown, and the arteries have been drawn as the caps of Armillaria Ostoyae, a brown mushroom with speckled caps. the veins running over the chambers of the heart are dark brown. The painting has been titled, “Armillaria Ostoyae”.

Art that I made for @narcissistcookbook , who I saw in the flesh tonight :) they and their audience were very cool, soaring over the (low) bar set by the only other concert I have ever been to.

more wolf than girl

[ID: a digital drawing of ylfa from neverafter carrying the wolf's skin on her back and over her head so most of her face is obscured. the wolf's eyes and ylfa's chest are glowing. behind her, depicted stylistically, is a path that leads to a red house, and all along it are small red figures. ylfa is still in her mostly human form, her arms and legs between wolf and human, but her hood is on the wolf's head.

What is the sniper doing in my office? 👀

This is MY desktop and I didn’t invite him! 🤔 But @foxwithadarkside did – remarking that my cat Luigi from my previous desktop artwork IS Crosshair 🐱

I couldn’t un-see the mischief anymore and unforeseen art occupied my brain once again! 🥳And as always, art tends to rough up my brain until I manage to get it out and finally get some sleep if that's not asking too much 🤯✨

So I had to deal with him lurking around like my cat Luigi and especially if he's bored or unnerved he's up to no good. Here we get another proof, that Crosshair is only a big cat 😺

👀

🤣 🐾

Look who cannot resist to paw my pencil! I CAUGHT you, Crosshair! 😎

So now I'm a proud little drawing Padawan 🦉✨ No templates for the faces, the expression, the body shape. One exception: The paw in the last frame my husband modeled for me! 👍

And that was way too much fun and quite difficult because he made faces and hissed like Crosshair (nooo... not good 👀 I'm not going to be a Crosshair girl, especially if my stuff gets pawed! 🐾 )

Edit: Here is the artwork that caused it all: Peaking cat Luigi

My personal ALT-Text mission (1 additional ALT-Text for a previous artwork with each new art posting!): 

Crosshair getting Lula'd 😁

Aaron’s such an underrated character on Aphblr tbh. He’s become one of my favorite characters in the cast as I rewatch more and more of Mystreet. Aaron will tease you, but he’s also one of the best characters in the cast to go to for emotional support. He’ll tell you as it is, smack you upside the head when you’re being crazy and shake you back to rational normalcy, but then he’ll sigh and tell you you’re gonna be just fine and everything’s gonna be okay. He is the number one (and on occasion only) holder of brain cells in the whole neighborhood. He’s the most sensible, and often the word of wisdom/rationale, much more so than Katelyn or Lucinda or Zane or Laurance are. This can often make him come off as a serious character, but he’s still down to clown! He just does it in a different way!

He’s supposed to contrast Aphmau’s louder, more extroverted, playful, ditzy, eccentric personality, by being quieter, more rational, more responsible, more cautious and careful, more reserved, a word of wisdom to contrast her crazier, chaotic energy and pranking and punning and ponies and general whimsical tomfoolery. But that does not, by any means, mean that he is not participating in the antics. Just because he’s the only one who thought to bring a first aid kit and a safety harness doesn’t mean he’s not jumping off that cliff with everyone else in this crazy cast. You tell him to dig, he’ll bring shovels. He may sigh or say “oh god not again” when shit goes awry or the gang decides they are Dead Set on doing something insane for the 10,000th time, but by god he will commit. Aphmau kidnaps a baby and goes on a mad chase for a comedic bit, and he never complains about how “stupid” and “reckless” and “obnoxious” his girlfriend is, he just says in a completely calm tone, “Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go save my girlfriend.” And he chases after her immediately lmao.

Aaron enables the antics and participates in them, and if you rile him up or challenge him damn well enough, he will throw himself into the group antics with an unbeatable, fiery fervor. If the boys decide they’re all gonna pretend to be Santa and his elves in order to cause prankster-variety chaos one day, Aaron would join in and go right alongside them. He’s here to make sure it all goes to plan. He’s here to make sure you don’t break any bones when you jump off that roof like a madman. He’s here to help you run away from the cops, help you break into the building. He may chide you for doing it in the first place (“do you even know what you’re doing?!”), and if needed he may drag you back home if you’re barking up the wrong tree and it’s nothing but detrimental to you, but if it’s viable for the bit, he absolutely will show you how to break a window correctly.

And he can be a little shit if he wants to, too!! He can snicker at you and tease you and make quips, and I bet if Aaron himself dedicated his energy to it, he would make the best of pranks. He’s not an asshole that’s full of himself and too serious and stoic and cool for being silly, he’s not a whiny bitch, he’s actually very incredibly supportive. At times, much more so than Garroth, Laurance, Zane, Katelyn, etc. He’s reliable, he trusts Aphmau a lot, he knows how shittily Aphmau cooks and still does his damndest to support her, and he will force himself to eat her biohazardous cooking just to make her happy. He is the chef of the household. He’s good with animals, animals love him. He’s a kind guy!!! He’s just got his own unique energy and vibe to him, that no one else in the cast really has, and I really appreciate that core trait of him. He’s a grounding character. He’s probably got his own ways that he’s weird and eccentric that are a lot more hidden than Aphmau’s. If we didn’t have Aaron, the entire neighborhood would have burned down ages ago, ten times over.

I genuinely do believe he’d make a fantastic dad, being a combination of a soft and gentle and tenderly loving man, and responsible enough to always bring safety helmets and bandaids and snacks, very supportive of his kids development, emotionally available as a great source of genuine advice and wisdom while still getting plenty of encouragement. He would probably want to make an effort to be a very different parent than his father was, and since he was emotionally neglected as a child, he would refuse to do anything similar to his own kids. He’d be a good influence (and Aphmau would be the bad influence LOL)

He’s kind of a teddy bear of a man <3 If he weren’t so heavily wolf-themed, I’d say a bear would be the best animal that’d fit his personality and energy. He’d protect you like a bear, he can be really fucking terrifying if he wants to, but he’d only use that power to make sure Aphmau gets what she wants and needs to make her happy. He’d never use that terrifying intimidation factor of his on his friends and loved ones, never as anything more than a single look that has a derailing Garroth/Laurance/Travis/Dante/Gene/etc. get right the fuck back on track and start backpedaling, like if they started saying or doing something careless or stupid that made Aphmau feel worse. He’s quiet and reserved with that tired, grounded, solid energy of a bear. He’s a big guy. But he can also be really soft and supportive and sweet. He takes more time to come out of his shell and let down his walls, but when he does, he really dedicates his life to the few people he manages to trust. And it’s that thick outer shell that makes Aphmau a good match for him, because she’s kinda the only character in the cast who’s able to bring him out of his shell so easily.

She’s kind and extremely friendly, unstoppably and unendingly so. She’s sweet and naive and selfless in the way that proves to Aaron that she���s not trying to get anything out of him, she’s not lying to him, and she would never neglect him or just…abandon him like a discarded toy once she’s through with him. She’s not scared of him. She sees the best in everybody, and sees that there’s something more underneath that scary, prickly outer shell of defenses that’s managed to push everyone else away and keep the likes of Laurance and Garroth and Katelyn on their toes. She sees what no one else does, she sees the true beauty and the kind heart he has underneath. Even in MCD, when he’s literally held a sword to her throat and threatened her life multiple times, she can still sense that he’s full of shit and there’s a kind heart underneath, and if she does a little cultivating, extends a hand of gentle kindness and genuine affection, a kind of love and affection he’s never really seen before and been starved of all his life… it works wonders, and he steps out to meet her. He changes, drastically, because she sees the best in him, and that makes him want to become the best version of himself that he can be, for her. Where he might hate himself and grapple with feeling unloveable, Aphmau is there to remind him none of its true. And so he tries to keep her nightmares away in return, sticking by her side, taking care of her, cooking for her, encouraging her to keep doing everything she does best, defends her against the bullies that make her feel like she’s not good enough, and takes her by the shoulders to remind her that she is good enough, and all the voices out there and in her head that tell her she’s not are full of shit. Because he knows first-hand, better than most, the good things she brings to those around her and the wonderful presence she is in others lives, and how wonderful she is as a person. He trusts her. He’s here to guide her along in her path to becoming her fullest self, to give her that last big nudge to boost her along the way. Likely on a cosmic level, mainly, with her becoming Irene.

He’s very sweet, he’s sweet to Aphmau, Aphmau’s even sweeter to him, and genuinely I’ve learned to love the big, fluffy guy and I really appreciate him and his impact on the other characters the more and more I see of him. I don’t really know how I would enjoy Mystreet or MCD or the Aphverse without him. If he were real, I would love to give him one big hug, I bet his hugs would be amazing (topped only by Garroth’s rib-crushing bear hugs)

“I miss my family! I miss my brothers and sisters! I want them back!” cried the boy, but nobody was there. Nobody heard the young man pleading for his brother to come home.

been playing a lot of mario galaxy recently (and by that i mean i played the entire game in two days). truly a testament to creativity in game design
