this manatee looks like it’s in a skyrim loading screen
#lol good luck finding all of the photoshopped versions in the rb history. ‘manatee restored’ is still my favorite of all time#misc#I encourage anyone dyslexic to try rotating him in your mind. I can’t do that; which is why I’m asking you to.#also: a bunch of tags are surprised this isn’t ‘shopped#it’s the lighting. backlit by the sun (which is diffused through the water) but also forelit artificially#the artificial light - a flash pack or something - casts a hard shadow under the creatures arm#which normally wouldn’t be possible if backlit by the SUN; you’d see a less-hard/more-fragmented shadow above water#as light sources ‘compete’ in a sense - and since there aren’t any light sources which can outshine the literal sun#it looks a bit weird when the darkest shadow is being cast from any other origin point - which is what’s essentially happening here#I don’t know the mechanics of how light travels through water; but I know the effect is substantial even with relatively short distances#also: it’s been balanced and color corrected by the author of the photo - who made deliberate choices to bring out the full potential#so it’s not like it’s a fresh and untouched export#but the kind of ‘tacked on’ appearance of the creature is a result of the lighting conditions within the image

At your side [End of Season 2]
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#wen ning#jin ling#wen qing#jiang yanli#a-yuan#It may have taken a year but we did it! The end of season 2!!!#(Granted: this season was nearly twice the length of season one.)#It's been a really fantastic season to draw for. So many iconic moments! It was a lot of work but I had a blast B*)#I also enjoyed experimenting more and more with my comic style. I'm growing as a comic artist bit by bit!#There is even a little bit of shadowing in this one for next season. As a treat. All the fun (and not heart breaking) scenes to come!#Comic talk time: Recently saw 12 angry men for first time and I love the coincidence of the themes aligning here.#They both touch upon the horror of judicial systems - in which the most persuasive argument wins and the truth is a nuisance.#All it takes is one person to stand against the crowd and say 'I do not know what is true. And that is reasonable doubt enough.'#When the majority is for condemning someone guilty - that in itself is persuasive enough.#One will set their mind to what the 'truth' is and refuse to see it any other way. That their perspective is the only correct one.#No one is born with a monopoly on the truth.#Everyone has biases and agendas. Some care not for the outcome - only that they can be on the convenient side.#Lan Wangji is putting everything on the line to say 'I'm not going to go with the majority vote.'#And that is a huge deal in a story that is so politically focused as MDZS is. Everything is a careful chess move to these sects -#and to not play the game is basically sacrificing everything you are and your families name. For some it is unthinkable.#And there is no doubt in LWJ's mind. He would stand there and lose everything if it means upholding justice.#More importantly - these two have each other's backs. The bond is unbreakable. This is the most ride or die I have seen two people be.

Something other about his eyes
Bonus! Based on this quick thing I did this afternoon and the idea took a bit more shape and turned into that thing from above uEK
#not too much effort on the colors with this one#o would’ve left it just with lineart but at the end I thought it would look nicer with some rough shadows#shadowing. you know what I meant.#his plant markings being extremely faint on his eyes when they aren’t glowing is very true to me also#I think itd be awesome if Vash’s eyes would just look like that when he isn’t masking#or they could be a bit more lax but still look like they are staring far far away into the void#or into your souls if you so happen to make eye contact with him. like woowoo over here#he is probably listening for one of his sisters who is not so close to him. maybe even Kni? who knows it’s up to interpretation#Vash’s hair can be such a nightmare also. I do not think of physics when drawing him whatsoever#I give him the Mickey Mouse ears treatment sometimes and some other I actually respect the fact that his hair will always be swept#to the right. if you haven’t noticed that yet. I think it’s way more noticeable on the 2d art#which is a nice touch! considering that’s the direction I’m which his haircut was when they were kids. isn’t that fun#anyways weird Vash for me once again and I’ll share a little with you. ah I’ll get to the requests later btw!#trigun#vash the stampede#trigun stampede#nicholas d wolfwood#vashwood#trigun fanart#vash#wolfwood#nicholas trigun#lenssi draws#vash saverem#ah extra note. this is meant to be pre plant revelation. I think Vash would already know about what WW is there for since very early on#but about the plant thing he was still a little doubtful since he wouldn’t think Kni would disclose that information so easily.#so seeing that Nick has a very keen eye and is very observant kind of ticks him off even though he is just the same. so maybe that’s why#it ticks him in the first place. headcanons everywhere in this household

every time i rewatch the miracle aligner music video i am just flabbergasted. FLABBERGASTED. like. they really chose to make it like THAT. and by 'like THAT' i am specifically referring to:
1) “an attempt to extract the truth... approximately" *cue rosepetals and intense eye contact*
2) THIS being the opening shot of the two of them
3) miles legitimately spending the first minute of the entire video blatantly checking alex out
4) literal rainbow lighting around them
5) endless hand holding and twirling
6) that moment where miles's hand reaches ever so reflexively for alex's neck
7) the fucking closing scene?????????
#i mean seriously#jesus fucking christ#you'd think i'd be immune to this mv by now but if anything it just gets worse every time i watch it#absolute INSANITY#also don't even get me started on their dorky little coordinated mating dance#and the fact that they probably practised it themselves messing about in dressing rooms or one of their living rooms or something#also#incredulousness aside for a moment#i love this video so much for how much fun they're clearly having the whole way through#like how much it's just *them* messing about and being their idiotic selves with each other#but yeah#i'll never be remotely normal about the fact they planned and performed and approved literally every moment of insanity here#i mean for real#there's just no way they didn't know exactly what they were doing with this#milex#miracle aligner#milex gifs#tlsp#the last shadow puppets#lulu posts#my gifs

One day I’ll go through med school and then I’ll go through residency and then I’ll go through a fellowship and then I’ll be the most crybaby neurosurgeon you could think of. Bursting into tears if I so much as graze ur hypothalamus with my forceps
#Yesterday I shadowed a neurologist for the first time and basically we got done seeing a patient who’s also a heart surgeon#And I turned to the doctor and was like Ok what do we do#The thing is this patient has dementia and we don’t really have a cure for that yet so the study he’s enrolling in is largely observational#Still I expected her to follow up on him in much more frequent increments#Instead this woman goes “we’ll see him in 6-9 months but… not even sure if he’ll be here by then sooo”#Basically implying he might be dead in a year#AND I WAS LIKE. Blown away by how blase she was#And ever since then a fiendish sort of melancholy followed me everywhere I went .#Bc I haven’t stopped thinking about the heart surgeon#I don’t get how she can stop thinking about him#I don’t understand people who can stop thinking about something like that#I know neurologists like her have seen patients come and go many a time but I was disturbed#So I made a pact w myself never to lose my humanity. Half of why I’m so into medicine is bc of its humane aspects#And in 10 years I’ll look back at this and hopefully still be just as annoyingly sensitive as I am today#I think I’m just overall disillusioned w how little humanity some people seem to have but that doesn’t mean I have to be that way too#p

i love everything they gave us with maria's character in shadow gens because not only has it made her a much more interesting character, but it's also strengthened how much she and sonic would for sure get along
shes brave and isnt afraid to speak her mind!! i loved her standing up to black doom, the fact that she had the courage to yell at him like that really shows her character. we can also see her standing up for shadow when abe calls him a monster in one of the cut dark beginnings scenes.
and tied in with that is that she finds the unknown and things others would probably find scary or offputting to be interesting!! her parents were worried about sending her to space but she just thought it was cool! and rather than being scared, she finds white space interesting!
and that alongside her talking about the aurora borealis in dark beginnings, and her dialogue about their teacher, we can tell that she also had that scientist-like curiosity and love for knowledge that the rest of her family has :) it makes you wonder what she would've ended up doing if she had gotten to grow up...
i just really like the further details we've gotten, as it honestly lines up with how i've liked to think about her for a while. she wasn't just a whispery sick little girl, she was smart and brave and fascinated by the unknown!!!
#i mean we could always assume she was brave considering her actions during the ark raid. but its nice to know that like yeah.#she fully knew what she was doing. and whooofff that always makes me so sad#she was so young and she literally got shot in the chest and yet she still was brave and strong enough to push through it and#make the conscious decision to sacrifice herself in order to save shadow. and to keep a level head and even give him one last smile#like fuck dude. FUCK. she was so strong. can someone get me out of here if i think about how she got killed with the new context#of knowing more about who she was IM gonna destroy the world out of revenge#serena.txt#sxsh spoilers#sonic x shadow generations spoilers#shadow generations spoilers#maria robotnik

I've Got the "Kiss At Coachella" Blues
1.
Starved—body unthreading, adrift but simultaneously moored by his mouth on yours quick as a little riddle. Anacrustic softness crowded in close to his recklessness, space made for his body next to yours and you are going to kiss him again if he lets you.
You want him colloquial, speaking in choked phrases, midnight oaths and metaphysics—want him to realize what he’s done, now, as it gleams from your eyes like humming neon: I am going to kiss you again. He laughs, pushes you away, because he knows.
2.
Balanced on a knife-edge of unsaid, he’s never spoken more clearly yet so quiet. Across a stage but you hear him in your head, feel him in your chest, on your lips. An adolescent kiss, nothing special really, but everything held in a dog-day between you.
Recollect—his pout, hand to mouth, a thrown tambourine clattering like broken dishes. Melodrama of a split-second decision, a sock-it-to-ya kind of thought that comes when you’re doing some hard-fucking yearning. He’s split-cracked down the middle now with all his thoughts restrewn.
Good-for-nothing little masochists, both of you with your hands in each others wounds.
3.
Could you be his unasked question? There’s nothing you like more than your own every-direction fantasies— full-up of you and gasping, excruciating, ripeness of a fruit-bowl peach and you know he would taste like a prize. Sometimes you want him crying on his belly and sometimes you want hazy pink light behind his head like a halo, leaving him sated and illiterate if only for a moment.
You know he’s wound too tight from explaining this two-horse trick you have going on. Nobody is asking the right things—except you know how to curl him up like a question mark until he’s langorous and hypnotized.
4.
Touch your lips like you’re remembering— a false-bearing thought assuming you will never get this again. But he lets you hold his hand, take a bow, dazed little eyes looking anywhere but you.
Now, an organized withholding, but later, oh, an easy lapdog always gets what he wants.
#guess who's back with a brand new rap#back on my bullshit of writing a first draft and posting it like it's a masterpiece#this is not even the sluttiest thing I've ever written but#here#milex#milex poetry#enjooy~#or don't i won't tell you what to do#poetry#the last shadow puppets#alex turner x miles kane

anyway i swept the leaves out of my garage and built a shelf and those two actions were enough to leave me too tired to do anything about the fact that now there are two shelves in my room that only has room for one of them
#ragsycon exclusive#inside you there are two shelves#one was the right depth but was made out of cheap particle board and was literally collapsing under the weight of all my books#the other is an industrial strength workshop shelf but the shelfs themselfs are too deep and now rigatoni's tank is entrenched in shadows#so i have to get a lighting system set up for my boy i guess#but i don't have the beans to go back out to the hardware store so i have to hack something together with what i have in my house#and my display shelf that was on my old shelf is now the top shelf of my new one which is higher than eye level#so i need to figure out some sort of riser system so i can see anything i even put up there#not to mention find a home for my old shelf#all this to say; i'm sitting here typing this instead of doing all that#because i'm tired#but i can't lie down because my bed is covered in half the shit i pulled off my old shelf and haven't put on the new one yet#march of the gladiators dot mp3

the only reason you're still alive is cause I let you live
yes yes I know this is the pilot and that's a season 3 quote BUT IT FITS OK?
this drawing oh THIS DRAWING
I thought hey I like fucking around with lighting and shading this is going to be fun
but oh boy
OOOOOOOH BOY
the amount of times I wanted to throw my laptop out of a window is far too many to count
goes to show that fuck it we ball ISN'T the best drawing philosophy to live by some times
below cut is the sketch that started it all
#it took me drawing this to realize but I've been making the bunny's body way more human like as of recent#hell even their faces can look a bit more human from time to time#I think it's cause I've gotten better at/been drawing more humans ever since I've started my bunny bs#it's both funny and weird to me#what we do in the shadows#wwdits#wwdits fanart#guillermo de la cruz#*funny tag for my art*#bun stuff#I started this at like 4 or 5 am yesterday?#it is now 7 am#here's your reminder that sleep if for nerds#edit: you know a drawing is good when you straighten you back after spending hours on it#only for it to sound like you're cracking a glow stick

I like to headcanon Shin as a hardcore atheist (complete opposite of Hiyori who's a very religious person). He can't see himself believing in a higher power, not when his plights and tragedies and suffering were always met with indifference by whatever higher power may exist. But not by Sou Hiyori-- his guardian angel all throughout high school. His protector and his tormentor. His saviour and his captor. Someone he devoutly followed for years after having found him. Someone he looks up to; someone superior (always "Hiyori" while he's still "Shin", never his equal). Someone whose teachings he takes to heart and lives by. Someone he seeks out instinctively in his hour of desperation and need. Someone whose hand-me-down he wears dutifully around his neck to keep him close at all times. Someone who will praise him for his obedience and dependency and punish him for his defiance and independence. Someone he loves and respects and fears all at once. The moon can't shine without the sun, and Hiyori all but shone upon him when he couldn't find the light within himself. Shin doesn't believe in God, but loving Hiyori is the closest he's ever gotten to religion. I think it's poetic, in a way.
#your turn to die#yttd#sou hiyori#shin tsukimi#midori yttd#soushin#thinking about them again don't mind me#allusions to an abusive and codependent relationship? do i need to tag that here?? it's soushin so i'd think not. maybe#when i think about what hiyori was to shin i think about two quotes from night eats color by consumer_electronics#“he's god before her and his words become her gospel truths” and “he's still god before her and he can set her free”#and when it's what shin is to hiyori i think of this one “here stands the only survivor of his cruelty and she’s begging him not to leave”#it's not just shin but hiyori too. his shrine of photos. the ai. his unrelenting possessiveness and obsession#there's also the fact that he dollified himself when he was still a candidate. if he and shin had won shin would've become his human master#even with shin and hiyori gone the shadows of their dynamic still haunt sou and midori's relationship despite the severe strain present now#their devotion to each other borders on religious in a way that tickles me a certain way#i've just been in a weirdly religious mood lately. as in contemplating religious imagery and themes. and it's not even sunday#it's midnight so i'm just yapping over here but i wanted to get this down anyway#also read night eats color it's hauntingly compelling#momento rambles#pardon any typos i'm tired
