my favorite thing about rancher duo is that they are both pathetic little meow meows, but tango is the kitten who would trip over himself trying to attack the curtains and then start screaming and jimmy is the kitten who would somehow fall into the water bowl and then look at you sadly until you did something about it.

not to vague but (part of) the entire point of mapleshade is that she actually was, at least in part, responsible for her kits' deaths, yet she can't accept that she played a role in their demise so she strikes out against anyone and everyone else that was even slightly involved, and some of those she attacks were also responsible but others were only tangentially related. that's literally the entire plot of mapleshade's vengeance.

if you read her desperately bargaining with herself to absolve herself of blame for her kits' deaths and pin it on anyone and everyone else and thought "so true queen" that's a you problem.

Rain

A poem by me

In the rain I was walking. Deep in the forest.

Strong was the storm.

Strong were the drops falling.

I shivered in the darkness of the trees.

The forest whispered, the falling rain sang.

Cold and numb I was, but yet, I walked.

The storm was long and hard.

The world was a river of glass.

Where I went, I didn't know.

But the darkness wavered on, and the rain kept falling.

And I walked and walked.

I still don't know where I am going. Back to the hell I came from? Back to the pain of the cutting sun?

I can't feel the warmth of my mind

The world is pitched darkness

It swallows me whole

I don't know how much time I have walked

In this ocean of ice

But my legs are numb now. And my eyes are full of fog

The wind screams, as I walk with no direction

It pushes me forth and back

I don't know where I'm going

But the forest of darkness does

What's something you're guilty of doing as an artist?

For me, I tend to draw most heads angled slightly upwards, regardless of the perspective.

...I also regularly forget how chins work.

I want to strip down and ride my pillow until I cum but I also want to just lay here and let sleep take me.

Shout out to Lilith Clawthorne from the Owl house, for being an aroace icon that isn't being sexualised (usually) and whose fandom respects her identity

hc that grian's 'socket eyes' are just all of his thousands (millions?) of watcher eyes shrunk down and condensed together in an attempt to look normal. like some weird bug or something. you can only tell if you look really, really closely...

as funny as the whole mabel grilling ford about his thing with bill is, i fully believe that girl is oblivious when it comes to actual relationships that aren't fairytale romances. she's twelve, not her fault. also, most of what we know about ford's relationship with bill comes from ford himself, and dipper was the one who hung out with him the most and read the journals religiously. however, he's also twelve. so i think that the most realistic way dipper and mabel find out about bill and ford's toxic situationship is just. dipper hearing ford complain about bill in the lab and then like four years later sitting bolt upright in the middle of the night and going. Oh My God Grunkle Ford Fucked Bill Cipher.

all this to say that no one is claiming that everything was 100% mapleshade's fault or that characters like oakstar and ravenwing and even frecklewish don't bear responsibility on what happened, but to say that mapleshade is enitrely blameless is just factually incorrect.

"mapleshade is a victim of oakstar + thunderclan's bigotry and should not have been exiled for her half-clan kits. exile put both mapleshade and her kits in indirect danger. it was wrong of oakstar to exile her and wrong of other characters to support this decision." is true

"mapleshade made the active choice to cross the river, with her kits that were easily winded from swimming in calm waters, during a severe rainstorm while the river was severely flooding. this is something that no one made her do and something that directly resulted in the death of her kits." is also true

people are often both victim and aggressor. traumatized / victimized people often make poor decisions that end up hurting people they care about. and you can acknowledge that they have been hurt themselves without pretending they did nothing wrong or that they didn't hurt others

it's not "victim blaming" to say that mapleshade shouldn't have crossed the river with her kits. victim blaming would be to blame the victim for the actions of other people. for example, to say that mapleshade is at fault for her exile because she had a cross-clan relationship would actually be victim blaming, because you're blaming the victim for someone else's actions. but crossing the river was a choice made by mapleshade and mapleshade alone, despite knowledge of the danger to both herself and her kits.

guy who's stuck in a timeloop for so long he stops wanting to leave it. guy who started out trying to escape but slowly grew used to and became comforted by the familiarity of the repeating day. guy who is no longer who he was before the timeloop. guy who is offered a way out and violently refuses it because he can't leave, doesn't want to leave. guy who escapes the timeloop by chance or force or accident and doesn't know how to live anymore. guy who keeps going through motions that don't match the situation and keeps having conversations that aren't actually occurring. guy who panics every time he realizes he can't predict the next instant. guy who left the timeloop but still lives with it.

Decided to theme my painting assignment around TMA, and... I'm not sure what I expected, but my not!Sasha design is way creepier than I thought

You know your drawing is good when it freaks you out and you're the one drawing it
