#Unus Annus fan art

[artbyla22]

Hi! Welcome to my page!

I figured it was time for a new introduction:

Hi, I'm artbyla22, or LA, or Lindz. Whichever, whatever.

I've been drawing for...forever, and I've been sharing my artwork online since around 2017! (all my socials are in by bio)

I'm currently (as of 2023) studying art in college, so I'll probably share some of that stuff here, too! That stuff will be different from fan art, but hopefully still cool nonetheless.

A lot of the work I share is fan base-related, especially Twenty One Pilots and Half Alive, but you'll see some the 1975 stuff and some old Dan and Phil and Unus Annus stuff around here, too.

Anyways, I don't bite lol, and am always up for fandom, art, or whatever conversations! Feel free to message about commissions as well, but I am a college student so like...no promises.

Have a lovely day!! <3

It's been 1,000 days since Unus Annus ended. I miss them but their memory will live on forever.

I wanted to make something more light hearted to celebrate the occasion. Because yes it is sad that they're gone but they'd want us to smile instead. A better way to enjoy life.

Plus, I wanted to have a different take on how'd they look after being gone for so long. The suits are out, they're going merch casual!(I didn't draw the crew neck wrong, I just reversed the colors. It's dope!) I didn't want to draw suits that's my excuse lol.

Anyways, a salute to the time boys of grayscale colors. Unus Annus, Memento Mori.

[ONE MORE THING! The images have a weird texture, it's okay! I glazed them to protect them. Just wanted to say :D]

[ghostieking]

It’s been 3 years since Unus Annus ended and I am still sad about it :,D

This the art I did for today and I can’t express how much Unus Annus has done for me and how much I miss it

Memento Mori everyone

Painful Story Time (Unus Annus)

So. I have more strict parents, and I wasn't allowed free reign on the internet and YouTube until... Maybe around the start of high school? So like 2018-ish. I was super busy with school and depression and anxiety lol, so even once I was allowed to watch YouTube, it took me a while to get into it. My brother loved DanTDM so he was one of the main channels I watched. I found LaurenZside and Let's Game It Out, too. And... That was about all I had the brainspace for. I did not go looking for other content. I did not watch recommended videos. I didn't have time to be curious enough to check out new things.

My brother watched a very few Markiplier videos. Showed me Markiplier Makes: Pie. Showed the family a couple Heist paths. I watched them for my brother. I couldn't fathom trying to get into a new channel myself. I heard little whispers of unus annus. Saw an unusual number of black and white spiral profile pics. Heard some boys at school chanting "UNUS ANNUS UNUS ANNUS."

And, look, in truth, I know it wouldn't have really worked. With everything that happened?! The FIRST video was COOKING WITH SEX TOYS. And there was...... just... so much nudity. My parents would have freaked out. I wasn't into that kind of humor at that point.

But looking back now. Knowing. Being able to remember those little whispers. Knowing that I'd seen a couple videos. It just... it hurts to know how close I was. Close to having been there. Having been a part of this beautiful amazing thing, having this thing to share with the rest of the community. Knowing the ins and outs of what happened. Having seen all the videos. I was just... so painfully close.

And now it's too late. I subbed to Mark toward the beginning of 2022. I was a over a year too late. I see fanart, fan videos, compilations. Sometimes it just hits me. I can't say it hurts more than those of you who experienced it, but it hurts in a different, special kinda way. And I cry. I haven't watched the vids Mark and Ethan posted yesterday yet. I will. I know I'll cry. I was so close and now it's so far. So unreachable. Cuz, like, I know there's archives. I could watch them all. But I won't. I couldn't. And if I did, I'd feel awful. It'd feel wrong. I can never go back.

So... I guess for me, Unus Annus taught me to be curious. To investigate. And, to not write off things just because they're mainstream. Cuz even when I knew my brother was watching some Markiplier, and I got most of my YouTube recommendations from him lol, I also knew Mark was popular. And I didn't wanna go check something out and get into it just because it was popular. But what I sorta ended up doing was avoiding something just because it was popular. Never really checking it out for myself. Until it was too late to be a part of this exclusive thing. So, yeah. Unus Annus is affecting even people who can only see the remains, the clips, the ghost. 🥲 Memento mori.

Hey also side note. Something I've been anxiously afraid of being lowkey judged for just because of the weight of ua and the fact I wasn't really there and all but I must confess. I'd seen tons of people making their own unus annus outfits and merch and such, but I am not artistically talented in those ways. So I turned to Etsy~

I wanted something to hold onto, to support and to have and just - even though I wasn't there. Even though it isn't official merch.

It makes my heart feel kinda sparkly

I wear it all the time except at work cuz my boomer manager would yell at me for wearing a hat

[minifruits]

Bringing it back for today baby

"do you think they miss us?"

"...just as much as we miss them"

It's been three years.

(Words typed under cut if you don't want to try to read my terrible free hand lettering)

I wanted to get this done for yesterday, but life has been crazy and the anniversary snuck up on me. This might be a little dark for some people, but I truly think the biggest thing I have taken from Unus Annus is that endings are not something to be feared or fretted. Impermanence is beautiful, endings are just as important as beginnings and middles. It is okay for things to end, even if it hurts. The end is the end and it isn't. The impact of people and things and life will be felt far beyond any one person or thing. The end can hurt, but the end isn't complete destruction. It is simply a new form.

"The clock is always ticking down and down and down and down and down...

One day, every Unus Annus fan will be gone.

That day doesn't scare me, though.

The art and the memes and the memories and the impact will ripple far beyond us.

I find that rather beautiful."

Every year when the unus annus anniversary comes around I am reminded of how I was quickly falling into a mcyt hyperfixation at the end, but I was like “for the sake of unus annus, I will keep this tumblr account unus annus only until it is deleted”, and literally the day after it was gone I had like three technoblade fan art reblogs scheduled. I really did kick flip off the corpse of unus annus and into Technoblade’s arms

[capversen1]

HELLO THERE!!

Welcome to CAPVERSE!!!

Ran by @crowleysno1 and @emmangst !!

If you like Capvers, if you like art, if you like fanfiction, if you like an au where Havers doesn't leave for the North African Front? FOLLOW US!!!

We're just two little sillies who want to spread our silly little thoughts about these silly little homosexuals!!!

BUT! THERE WILL BE SPOILERS FOR GHOSTS S5!! and..

Let us introduce.... the OWNERS!!!

crowleysno1 (aka ashley):

i am the storm of which has been brought upon kav, i am the reason why we are here today. I am.... Ashley.

HI! im ashley (aka grandpappy) and im autistic!!!

im the person who brought this silly ship into kav's life and now we can't stop talking about it!! (OOPSIE!!) i do art, and writing and sometimes poetry but that's like very very rare. BUT!! what you will see here will be a mixture of me and kav's crazy CRAZY imagination through art and fanfiction!

i can't remember the last time I haven't been properly obsessed with anything since I had a 3 year long hyperfixation on Unus Annus, and the rest has been a very long switching between old ones and new ones!!! im very weird.

i hope that this blog goes far because capvers has engulfed me and kav entirely, and we can't escape it (help).

err some random things about me is that I love the six idiots (DUHH). im a gomens , omfd, Markiplier, unus annus, Ethan Nestor, Thomas Sanders fan etcetcetc. errr im in love with horrible histories, ghosts and yonderland... I mean duh. why else am I here???@?#?

(as of today, I never know when I'm suddenly like "NEW HYPERFIXATION!!").

im also very interested in history (ww2 specifically), so like I'll use every every single excuse to talk about it so don't even like cry at the sight of my silly little rambles. (Though if you want to see those they'll be on my main acc)

ill sign off the posts with A or Grandpappy, because I am grandpappy ashley.

BYEBYE!

emmangst (aka kav):

hi im kav (aka hubba bubba) and i have adhd and horrendous memory comparable to amnesia

im the victim of the storm that was approaching (ashley) and now I cant stop being struck by capvers brainstorm lightnings

I'm also a big fan of Pokemon, specifically the subway masters and the b/w games, (really really big fan of) kubzscouts, kitchen nightmares (solely bc of the admin of the kitchen nightmares yt account), metro railways/rapid transit and others I can't really remember

I do art and writing too, but I never post my writings, im not good neither does my artstyle support capvers HELP. but I do share my ideas of capvers au's to ashley.

coincidentally I too am verrrry interested in history (specifically british, germany, ww1/ww2). I go by it/they but ashley will refer to me as he/him just because I said so in didord hhdjsjdj and I probably will call ashley "captain ashley" because it funny

will sign off the posts with K or hubba bubba

funfact abt me : I watched the trailer for BBC Ghosts in 2019 but completely forgot about it until I got curious abt what ashley meant by not revealing the captains name and meeting my ultimate doom

[iam-unoriginal]

Remember the paladins? I do and they got a redesign baby!!!

Real proud of how they look here compared the when I first designed them

[wouldntyou-liketoknow]

We'll miss you, MatPat.

Yes, I already made a post with my thoughts on this, but that was after the initial announcement. Things obviously feel different now.

Today's the day.

I've always been one to listen to things while I work, but Matt's content (whether individual Theory episodes or his and Steph's livestreams) was so, so special when I discovered it. Seriously, I can't understate how much it alleviated my near-constant stress from middle school all the way to college.

Imagine that: watching/listening to a funky guy gradually drive himself insane via animatronics and Nintendo oddities and what have you was the thing to help me whenever I felt numb or lonely or overstimulated. For years upon YEARS.

I won't lie and say I'm not sad to see Matt go. Trust me, there's definitely going to be some ugly tears on my part during the Final Theory.

But this is the best thing for everyone.

Matt will get an EXTREMELY well-deserved break. He'll get to focus on Stephanie and Oliver. His family will get more crucial quality time together.

Like he said before, he'll still be somewhere in the background, perhaps popping in on occasion. YouTube will never be the same without him, but that's not a bad thing when you really think about it. Change is inevitable for everyone; Matt and his family deserve this change. Besides, Tom, Santi, Amy and Lee are obviously going to do great things with each of the channels.

(Plus, let's all remember to be grateful that Matt isn't pulling an Unus Annus and having our new hosts start from scratch.)

And not only that, but this retirement isn't going to stop us fans from making stuff for/about him. Art, stories, memes, all the things that make a fandom community fun and wonderful! New things will be made for the new hosts, of course, but Matt is NOT going be be forgotten. Not by a long-shot.

Happy Retirement, MatPat. Thank you for all the content, memories, inspiration and help you've given your audience for so long.

have u seen the new jacob geller video? seems like itd b up your alley. id be curious to hear your thoughts on the philosophy of archival he talks about

Oh it was DEFINITELY up my alley, as an (at the very least) above-average obsessed fan of archiving my life's work to the best of my abilities. Geller brings up a really good point I've had to wrestle with, myself: What's the extent to which I can, well, archive?

Lately I've had to omit archiving multiple versions of my art because there's just... so many. Often I found myself erasing old versions just to put new ones in, only occasionally regretting it months or years later. There's some physical doodles I just haven't been able to archive, some that are probably lost forever. Sometimes I go about my day and check Discord only to find something missing I can't quite put my finger on; another server, deleted. How much do I archive of myself? Every word? Every pen stroke? Every conversation? Every thought, every dream, every morsel of food, every footstep, every blink, every fucking breath I've ever taken? Where does it stop?

The answer is it doesn't stop. At least, if you want a full archive of yourself. Different people have focused on different things, yeah. Some make dream journals, others make food diaries, others digitize their notebooks, others have github repositories or the like. But by god, is it hopeless to do everything.

I've tried to back those servers up, but, well... They get updated every day. I can't make backups of every server, every day. Archiving takes time, immense amounts of time, out of my day. Lately, I've been going to class lectures only to spend the time archiving my mind-boggling collection of notebook doodles from high school, for a purpose that isn't really that important right now. I'm not saying it's a universal experience, but to me, the process and goal of archiving puts me violently in the past and violently in the future, and rarely in the present.

I find myself just scrolling through my Everything Drive aimlessly, taking in the same colors I've already looked at for years, and it just feels like... I'm getting nothing new done. And then I continue building up this Everything Drive, for some unforeseeable unattainable "ideal" state that will never happen. I look back and I look forward constantly and sometimes I forget I can just step back and take in the moment as it is, without having to save an audio log of it, without having to record a video of it, without having to be constantly in fear of the decay of my memories. (Note that I have nothing against recording videos of things. I mean, I do that. A lot. That's why I bring it up. It just gets a bit too much after a while. I have 2000 videos and 2000 audio recordings on my phone. I barely ever check them.)

Callie, you probably have a few art pieces that might not be accessible anymore, because you might have put them in a discord server and just... Never kept a copy on your computer. Even for the art you made that is still accessible... How will you even go through the effort of collecting and archiving them, now? I got lucky to start my Everything Drive project relatively "early", in 2020, because Unus Annus scared lil ol me. Even then, I had a lot of work before me. I can't imagine starting that same project now, 3 years later.

On a slightly related note, sometimes a friend's hard drive just gets wiped. Sometimes someone's art hosting site gets taken down. Sometimes there's even something as mundane as someone quickly deleting their discord message as a joke. Things get deleted all the time, outside of my control.

I try to archive as much of myself as possible, but that's basically where I stop. Just myself. I can't archive everyone else to the extent I do for myself. I just hope they get to archive at least a small piece of themselves, their own way.

Back to Geller's video, though. I wanna say, The Internet Archive isn't fully a forever archive. People can try, yeah, and with enough people, something could very well last forever. But with individual items, it's a different story. I used to be very into the Archie Sonic comics, all for one specific character (if you want to know, it's Shard the Metal Sonic). Internet Archive, at that time, had a collection of pretty much every archie sonic comic, neatly organized and easily accessible straight from the website. It was a beautiful thing. Months later, trying to find a panel of a comic to take a screenshot of, I realized the collection had been taken down for copyright reasons. Sure, there's other collections of Archie Sonic comics, but those often fail to capture... Everything. Even the one I was looking at probably failed to capture everything. Some only have the early era of the comics, some only have the comics from Ian Flynn onwards. Some omit the spinoffs, others omit the end pages of the comics with fan mail and whatnot. One collection appears to be the most substantial, but seems to have forgotten a few pages in a few issues. It's just... Impossible, really. To get everything, and make it out in one piece.

I can't capture my paper doodles as accurately as they appear; in the Everything Drive, you zoom in enough, and you see pixels. There aren't pixels in real life. If I were to preserve every page of my high school notebooks, the scale of the collection would become gargantuan and completely inaccessible; just like Borges' map. I don't currently have the resources to download every video I've ever put on youtube or every stream I've done on twitch, and keep them on some external hard drives. I certainly don't have the space or even the time to preserve everything I love, everything I wish could stay just a little bit longer on this Earth. We all have our times to go, and all we can do is move just a few centimeters higher on this sinking ship.

So here I am, carving out my own corner, displaying only a select few categories of what I wish to preserve about myself. And in this corner, I'm happy.

Sorry if this rant is unhinged. I'm not deleting any of it. Guess I'm staying true to this topic, lmao.

I want to end by saying that if anyone wants to scroll through my Everything Drive (a google drive collection of as many digital + physical things ive made as im able to find and archive), I can send you a link! Just dm me if you wanna. Haven't fully finished organizing some recent art projects and a vast majority of my notebook doodles, but there's still already a fuck ton of shit in there.

Also my music streaming platform of choice is VLC Media Player
