#Yes I used picrew because I was too lazy to draw them all

[watercolor-rainclouds]

long ass post about the original designs of my ocs (these are only the ones i've redesigned later, also not 100% accurate to the original designs because picrews have their limits but i was too lazy to draw them lol)

valerian (rian) started as john. still a vampire but with a whole different skin tone and everything. he used to look so boring omg. also at one point i almost cut him out of the whole story but instead i ended up changing him so much im not sure if it even counts as a redesign anymore lol.

mirabel was always named mirabel years before encanto came out and at the time i didnt know it was an actual name lol, originally as a nickname of miranda isabel but now it's just her actual name. also she was always a fairy, but once again her whole appearance changed (except her style). also her "theme color" went from pink to yellow, only because i wanted the six most important characters to make up a rainbow lol.

olga started as jane. she remained pretty similar except i got rid of the bangs and gave her shorter hair. i think i also made her taller but its hard to tell because my ocs used to not have set heights/height differences because i never drew them. once again, her power (shapeshifting) stayed the same, just like everyone else's.

i've mentioned this a lot i think, but ari started off as a boy (thats the backstory of why i made her trans). her appearance didnt change too much more than what transitioning would change about her. i gave her glasses back when she was still going to be a guy, but originally i dont think she had them.

and finally, lynn. her appearance didnt change a whole lot actually, but her role did. shes still an important character but she was originally going to be the protagonist. (also, i mostly draw her grey/posessed version but she has light brown hair normally). her name spelling kept changing between Lyn and Lynn, but i settled on Lynn. at some point i also gave her vitiligo but it's not visible on her grey version because all color is basically sucked out of her. when shes her regular self, she does have it though (unless i forget to add it while coloring her because its really hard to remember what details i kept vs what i didnt, but she is supposed to have vitiligo, so feel free to beat me with a stick if i draw her non-posessed version without it).

the last one of the old main cast would be edward but all i changed was give him glasses, and i made him way less important to the story. he got replaced by ellie as a major character because ellie had a lot more personality at the time. also, lynn got replaced by kiara who didn't even exsist originally. i drew kiara during a class one time and i liked her design so much i wanted to add her to this story, and lynn felt boring so she got replaced by her.

all of these ocs were originally inspired by the appearance of people i saw irl (as most of my ocs are), but the redesigns thankfully made them a bit more unique.

also its kinda funny because one could say my current oc lineup is "forced representation" (which is stupid, yes, but one could say this shit) but actually it was completely accidental. like i individually redesigned all of them, i didnt even have the other characters or the goal of representation in mind lol. like i made mirabel fat at one point "because why not", and then happened to get inspired from a black girl's tiktok so i made her black as well. like i just kept adding things to each of them until it felt right, and i accidentally ended up with a diverse and fun to draw cast of characters. and like i was already planning to make ari and olga a couple, so when i changed ari to be a girl i just decided to make olga a lesbian (ari was already bisexual before i even made her trans, so i didnt need to change anything about her). and then it was like "what if ellie has a gf? and what if its kiara?" (ellie has also always been bi) idk how it took me so long to realise im bisexual when i kept making my favorite ocs bi lol

so yeah. thats it for the embarrassing original designs of my main ocs. they look much cooler now because i got better at drawing people but i think its interesting/fun to look back to where i started

DT Insomniacs' member introductions

Oki, so DT Insomniacs was a band made up of five members. They were just a small band that played in talent shows and small contests. Their music fit into 4 different genres that each of the members, except one, specifically wrote music for. A bit over kill but they wanted to have fun with it and find a way for all of them to do what they liked and so they did. They disbanded after the two eldest members started their second year in high school.

For the members that have never been introduced I will use picrew to illustrate because I'm lazy and drawing is hard.

Kierce Sherman:

Kierce's the second youngest. He played guitar and sung as backup vocals except for when he sang lead for his songs. (Sometimes Quinn convinced him to rap every now and then tho) His genre was soft grunge and he most focused on the themes of being tired of life and deep, depressing things. Writing music, or just writing in general, has always been something Kierce is passionate about so he put a lot of thought and effort into hiding the deeper meanings of his songs.

Kent Woodson (@the-tall-albino-kid): Kent was the drummer. He was the only member of the group who didn't write songs and was happy just jamming with his friends.

Callum Carter ("I won't use Tumblr unless all other forms of social media were suddenly wiped from existence!"):

(His naturally hair color is dark brown which is much better than the soft orange color he dyes his hair with.) That one mom who will go above and beyond to embarrass her kids and remembers everything.

He's the oldest and was the lead singer for every genre except for soft grunge and the blues. His genre was lofi/jazz and his theme of choice was broken relationships and tragic romances. His lyrics were usually pg-13 ish but sometimes they weren't. His songs are the only ones that ever got censored.

Quincy Graves (maybe one day):

The second oldest and is forever the baby of the group. He is the only one in the group who goes to public school.

He played the bass and was a backup singer. He was the main rapper too. His genre was alternative hip-hop/bounce and his themes were focused on how life's not fair but that's alright. His lyrics were encouraging and deep but still had a playful, lighthearted feel to them.

Francis Wolfe ("What's a Tumblr?"):

Family moved from England. No, he does not have an accent (okay, maybe just a barely noticeable one.) Yes, the eye patch is just a phase...we think. He is the youngest of the group yet acts the oldest. He's a sweet boi (kinda. No.)

Francis plays the keyboard. His genre when he first joined was death metal until he discovered the blues. (He's never gone back since.) His theme focused on the sadness that can come with change and losing yourself or things that are important to you. His lyrics are soulful and direct.

And that's the band!! They still hangout and stuff they just don't play like they used to because of school and life goals. Maybe when they all graduate they'll get back together again but who knows. I sure don't.

Rainbow 6 OCs

I!!!!! Finally!!!!!! Finished!!!!! My!!!! Rainbow 6 Siege OCs!!!!!!!!!!! I’m really happy how this kinda turned out jifjfi my new babies i love them. I’m gonna have so much fun implementing them in r6s universe lmao i’m gonna post my first (r6) fic about them soon lol

Also i cant draw shit so i made their (casual-look ofc cuz cant find military-chara sheet thing) character design using Picrew (this website is really great btw) so dont blame me if theyre looking too anime-y jdojofjfo

More info about OCs below!!!!

1. Beruang (’Bear’ in Indonesian) Real Name: Lukman Susilo Sanjaya Age: 37 (As of 2019) Organization: Kopassus Position: Attacker Birthplace: Tegal, Central Java, Indonesia Date of Birth: January 12, 1982 Height: 5'10'' (1.79m) Weight: 177lbs (80kg) Armor: Medium Speed: Medium

Appearance: He wears standard Kopassus uniform but his face is covered by black half-mask and shades. In his free time, he usually wears bland t-shirt and sport pants. He’s kinda hairy, has a little bit of stubble and scar under his right eye. (Casual look:)

Personality: Serious 24/7. Difficult to approach since he only gives necessary/short answers if asked. He never seeks company of other people, and sometimes can be oblivious about things not related to his job. 

Appears stoic, but it’s not because he doesn't have any feelings. He just doesn't know or can't express his emotion to other people except Jasmine. Lowkey insecure about himself, like thinking he's 'not good enough' and people deserves someone better than him.

It's hard for him to have a close relationship with other people other than Kirana because of his insecurity as well his oblivious and stoic personalities. It's not impossible, just hard and take a lot of work before someone could call Lukman their friend or even boyfriend.

Special Gadget: Bear Knuckles - It's basically a pair of gloves shaped like bear paws, used to further increase the power of Lukman's fist (It should be noted that his punch is already strong before he put on the gloves), allowing him to break any surfaces (except steel, for now at least). Yes, it's technically like Sledge's hammer but it's his fist instead lol. Punching a person without holding back with this will likely put them unconscious or heavily injured. 

Unfortunately, it's powered by battery and can only be used a few times before it runs out. It must be charged before he can use it.

Short Biography: As a son of the current Major General of Indonesian's Special Forces Kopassus, Beruang's life was revolved around how to be just like his father. With his incredible strength and agility, coupled with knowledge of various martial arts, a fight without a weapon is what he shines the most. Calm and obedient, Beruang is one of excellent soldier Kopassus had, a War Machine ready to serve under his country.

Psychological Report: Suffers from a condition where he can't express his emotion and low self-esteem where he claimed that he's never good enough. It is believed that harsh training and upbringings from the environment he lived in was the cause of those problems. While he's good at his job, his social skill is very lacking, and he himself appears to be distancing himself with his teammates other than one person.

2. Jasmine Real Name: Kirana Tunggadewi Pitaloka Age: 26 (As of 2019) Organization: Kopassus Position: Defender Birthplace: Malang, East Java, Indonesia Date of Birth: July 18, 1993 Height: 5'5'' (1.65m) Weight: 131 lbs (59kg) Armor: Light Speed: Fast

Appearances: wears standard Kopassus uniform and her face is also covered with black half-mask and shades. In her free time, she usually wears colorful clothes, along with this black-chocker thing she always wear. She has short, neck-length straight short hair.  (Casual look:)

Personality:

She has two personas. A facade she used to manipulates others: Kind, supportive, and positive. And then her real self, which so far only Six and Lukman knows: Lazy, vengeful, manipulative, and cold. She loves gossip, and although usually lazy, she will put a lot of effort into works that beneficial/important to her (such as maintaining her face around other operators or learning 'perfect english' before joining Rainbow). 

But, Kirana is loyal and helpful towards people she thinks as her friends. If they're in trouble, you bet Kirana will try to cheer them up or maybe even hurt those who hurt her friends. She can be easily stressed, which surfaced as paranoia and mild anxiety. She also has abandonment issues, but no one know about this.

Due to her upbringings and her job as a spy, she would do anything to obtain important information she ordered to. Like for example, if someone ask her for intercourse in exchange of information, she would do it as long that information is very important and worth the deal (if not, she wouldn't do it and if they lied about it, she would kill them on site). She doesn't believe in and sometimes even disgusted with people in romantic relationship (like dating/engaged/married/etc), especially those who is in relationship with their workmates, but she's down for one night stand and such.

(It's not impossible for her to be in romantic relationship, but it is very hard to tie her in it)

Special Gadget: White Petals - Five small gadgets shaped together to look like jasmine flower. There's two set of this, one that function like Kapkan's gadget: Putting it on the side of a doors/windows/any openings and watch as everyone that walk through it get electrocuted. It's strong electric surge could even renders someone unconscious. Unfortunately, people could just jumped over/crawled under the gadgets to avoid it when it activates. But the gadget itself is very small, so it can be difficult to spot.

The second set of White Petals is a gadgets that works kinda like smoke grenade, usually used by Jasmine when she have to run. When thrown, it filled the entire room with a special, thick smokes that not even drone could see through. Unfortunately, it last only for a couple of seconds.

Short Biography: Born and raised in a family where her parents worked as spies, naturally Jasmine herself was shaped to be one. Claimed to be one of the best spy her country ever had, she never failed to complete her mission in obtaining and gathering information. While her firearms skill is lacking compared to other operators, her skill of espionage, her cunning thinking, and her good self-defense skill prove herself to be a spy to be reckoned with.

Psychological Report: Her facade personality seems to be a defense mechanism she put up to make herself appears benign and easy to communicate with, which what she needed for her job so she would be least suspicious. On rare cases someone's grow suspicious of her, she would be stressed which resort to anxiety and paranoia. Regardless, she doesn't have any issues in engaging in large group of individuals and offers genuine help and advice to people she care about.

3. Angel Real Name: Florence Marie Walanda Tambayong Age: 31 (As of 2019) Organization: Indonesian National Armed Forces (Land) Position: Defender Birthplace: North Minahasa, North Sulawesi, Indonesia Date of Birth: April 29, 1988 Height: 5'7'' (1.70m) Weight: 143 lbs (65kg) Armor: Light Speed: Fast

Appearance: Wearing standard Indonesian Army uniform, also wears crucifix-necklace. In her free time, she usually wears long-sleeves black/gray/white/pink shirts with silly designs (like some Indonesian words or random bootleg characters) or sweaters and capri pants. If she's on duty treating operators in the medical facility, she wears lab coat, surgical mask, and white gloves. Also her skin is darker compared to the other two ops. (Casual look:)

Personality: Brutally honest but also cheerful and friendly. She likes to socialize/interact with everyone, joining any kind of 'fun' activities, and laugh the loudest at jokes that’s not even funny. She cares a lot about her teammates' condition, so much to the fact that if she ever see any kind of injury or sickness, she will 'fix' them. She doesn't care if they refuse her treatment, she WILL treat them with or without their permission.

She's very dedicated and focus on her works. Even if she lose her limbs, as long she's still has consciousness and able to move, she will try her damnest to treat injuries and sickness.  

Special Gadget: Nightingale - A first aid kit she named after a figure she idolizes. Said kit is filled with numerous vitamins, boosters, bandages, medicines, scissors, needles, etc. It's equipped with every medical stuff you can imagine, people wonders how the hell can all that stuffs are stored in it. The gadget itself isn't very special, but Angel's adrenaline rush make her performs medical operations perfectly whenever she uses this kit on someone, so it's more like a mixture of a very-equipped first aid kit and Angel's excellent determination to save lives, just like Florence Nightingale.

In game, this could heals or revives operators to full-health with additional 30 health points. Unfortunately, it can only be used thrice before it ran out.

Short Biography: Her involvement in medical world began at University of Indonesia where she eventually got her medical degree. After that, she worked as a nurse in a local hospital before she joined Indonesian Red Cross Society and eventually served as medical staff in Indonesian Army. With her excellent comprehension of human anatomy, she vowed to erase sickness and pain from everyone.

Psychological Report: With her optimism and carefree attitude, Angel has no trouble making friends in every place she stay. However, trauma about her failure to nurse injured civilians back to health in 2009 Sumatra Earthquake took a toll in her mental state. This resulted in her strong dedication and commitment in her job, which usually would be a good thing to have but it made her force anyone with injuries or sickness, no matter how small it is, to be nursed by her. She doesn't take no for an answer, in fear of her past experiences. It is best for one to approach her in a healthy condition.

Trivia:

- Jasmine studied in Airlangga University and got bachelor's degree in Psychology, Angel studied in University of Indonesia and got (obviously) medical degree, while Beruang studied in military academy.

- Jasmine speaks Japanese to some extent, like she doesn't know proper grammar for each situation (Japanese has different grammars for any situation, like speaking in workplace or towards elders for example) but she can understand and communicate in it. She studied it all by herself, mostly because she's a weeb.

- As said before, Jasmine is a big weeb. She watches a lot of Japanese dramas or animes, also plays a couple of Japanese's mobile games like Fate/Grand Order and Love Live. This is what she mostly do in her free time.

- All of them like spicy food, although Jasmine likes sweet food a little more. As such, if they're cooking a meal you bet it will be spicy as fuck.

- Beruang loves coffee while Jasmine and Angel loves iced tea. Both Beruang and Jasmine doesn't like alcohol, although Jasmine might drink wine or champagne a little, while Angel is open to trying variety of alcohol drinks.

- Jasmine's hobbies includes cooking and gaming, Beruang's hobbies are reading history or watching documentary films, and Angel's hobbies are treating patients and jogging.

- Regarding their sexuality, Beruang is gay (still in the closet, only Jasmine knows). Jasmine's down to have sex with anyone so she’s more of a pansexual, while Angel is straight but dedicates her life to her work so much she doesn't care about romance or sexual activities.

- As said before in his special gadget entry, Beruang is strong. Literally strong, his fist could destroy wood in a second without him putting his gloves on. Although without his gadget, he can't destroy bricks and such (might leave a dent on it though). If angry (which is thankfully unusual), he can't control his power and might break something he hold at the moment.

- As mentioned in his biography, out of various martial arts' learned, Beruang is great at judo and silat. He would use Judo technique the most in a fight, though.

- Beruang thinks of Jasmine as his little sister, while Jasmine thinks of Beruang as either her best friend or a dad. They have close platonic relationship regardless, although Jasmine had a crush on him a while ago (before she knew he's gay).

- While regarding Angel, Jasmine and her dislike each other. Beruang is neutral with Angel, and Angel regards him as a friend.

- Beruang's favorite animals: German shepherd. Jasmine's favorite animal: any cats. Angel's favorite animals: Parrot.

Haven’t been tagged but I’ll do it because I like this tag game.

1. Why did you choose your url?

It sounded good. I wanted something with the number 8 in it because I kinda liked it at the moment I chose my url, and I love cats. "Eightcat" doesn’t sound good in English so I tried with different language and chose Italian.

2. Any side blogs?

Nah.

3. How long have you been on Tumblr?

Probably three years.

4. Do you have a queue tag?

If "queue tag" refers to those posts we program to be released later, then it happens. Sometimes there are many things I’d like to post in a day so I redistribute some for the next.

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?

I was a fan of Luigi from the Marioverse and wanted more content about him.

6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?

I love cats :)

7. Why did you choose your header?

A gift from @girilimoni that I still treasure!! A Snape and a cat in an embrace after death 🖤🤍

8. What’s your post with the most notes?

One that talks about an anti who said Snape was Neville’s Patronus 🙈 dear @capysnapeart made a hilarious and awesome drawing about Neville casting the Snape Patronus under this post and now it has a bit over 2000 notes I reckon.

9. How many mutuals do you have?

Eeerrr how am I supposed to know exactly? More than I would have ever hoped that’s for sure.

10. How many followers do you have?

Around 760 last I checked.

11. How many people do you follow?

95 although some of them might be inactive now.

12. Have you ever made a shitpost?

Yes.

13. How often do you use Tumblr each day?

Too much

14. Did you have a fight/argument with another blog?

15. How do you feel about "you need to reblog this" posts?

Urgh I hate the guilt-tripping and the orders given at me to reblog a post that’s already famous. If I deem the message important enough, I might reblog, but I take care to reblog it without the yOu nEEd tO rEbLoG tHiS!!!!! added by a random user at the end.

16. Do you like tag games?

Some of them. Problem is, one, the picrew links given send me to a picrew page that doesn’t contain all the custom options and I’m too lazy to go on computer just for a full picrew so often I don’t do it, second, some of the info asked feel too personal and uncomfortable for me to share so I thank those who tagged me but I don’t follow it up.

17. Do you like ask games?

Yup! More than tag games for sure.

18. Which mutuals do you think are Tumblr famous?

Tumblr is divided in fandoms and different centers of interests. It’s a hard concept to define, "Tumblr famous". However there are definitely accounts famous in the Snapedom such as DeathDayDungeon!

19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?

No, and I hope people don’t fully fall in love just because they talked with some users in a social media software. You never know the person who’s behind the screen.

Tagging all those who want to participate! I don’t want to choose which blog to tag because I’d want to tag them all, so... consider yourself tagged if you read this.

Tag Game!

tagged by the very talented @maria-de-salinas

1. Why did you choose your URL?

Uru is for Uruguay, my country of origin (and also where I live!). Potter should be self-explanatory.

2. Any side blogs?

I have one from when Tumblr accidentally shut down my account way back when it was first started. Ultimately unnecessary though.

3. How long have you been on Tumblr?

Half a year I'd reckon, or just about.

4. Do you have a queue tag?

No. I don't really queue anything tbh.

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?

I wanted a place where I could lay down my various thoughts about Harry Potter, and this seemed the best site to do it.

6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?

I like football, and the men in my profile pic are both icons of the sport. I also think it looks pretty cool

7. Why did you choose your header?

Same reason I chose my pfp.

8. What's your post with most notes?

A post about how Snape's unusually high grades where explained by his being the Half-Blood Prince. It kickstarted a discussion about Snape's teaching, and pedagogy in general. If I'm not mistaken it has about 1100 notes, or just about. Really insightful too.

9. How many mutuals do you have?

I cannot be arsed to find out. A good amount, to be sure!

10. How many followers do you have?

247. Here's hoping for 250!

11. How many people do you follow?

51. I don't really follow a lot of people.

12. Have you ever made a shitpost?

A good amount.

13. How often do you use Tumblr each day?

More than I should

14. Did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?

Arguments definitely. Fights I don't think so. Does that time I got swarmed by libertarians count? If it does then I guess so.

15. How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts?

I tend to ignore them. Tumblr is not a reliable source of information, nor should is it the most effective place for activism.

16. Do you like tag games?

Yes!

17. Do you like ask games?

Depends on the ask game, but sure! Any Harry Potter related one is a game I'm down for.

18. Which of your mutuals do you think is Tumblr famous?

Absolutely no clue. I have a couple of fanfic authors as mutuals, but I don't know how much that translates to Tumblr fame

19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?

Tumblr is no place for love to blossom

4.) do you have a queue tag?

I’m unoriginal and lazy so I just use “q” woops

5.) why did you start your blog in the first place?

jumped on the mandalorian hype train and couldn’t find fic that I wanted to read, so I wrote it myself 🤩

6.) why did you choose your icon?

c3po is dummy thicc and that picture of him just makes me laugh 

7.) why did you choose your header?

I honestly don’t know because I usually delete them after they clog up my notifications HNGGG it’s probably some dumb shitpost or meme about star wars

9.) how many mutuals do you have?

10.) how many followers do you have?

too many for my dumbass, but we are in the 4 digits! like an old-timey phone number

11.) how many people do you follow?

like 300 ish

12.) have you ever made a shitpost?

🤡

13.) how often do you use tumblr a day?

I used it way too much, decided to not use it at all for a while, and now I’m slowly phasing myself back onto it so I don’t go through withdrawal symptoms again lmao

but yeah still too much

14.) have you had a fight with another blog?

no??? for all the drama that’s been springing up the past couple of months everything’s been very dandy on my end. it’s probably because I just don’t have any idea what’s going on but honestly ignorance is bliss 

15.) how do you feel about "you need to reblog this" posts?

I just ignore them because they annoy me lol. even if the message/intention behind the post is good, tacking on a weird guilt trip just makes me not want to share it out of spite

16.) do you like tag games?

I’m shit at keeping up with them when I’m tagged but I really do like them!! especially the cute little picrew ones

17.) do you like ask games?

I love getting asks in general!!! they feel like little love letters

18.) which one of your mutuals do you think is famous?

as in like tumblr famous or famous famous?? because if it’s the latter then I would find it ridiculously funny if one of my online friends who writes mandalorian smut was like meghan markle or something

tumblr fame doesn’t really amount to anything anyways lol. I know some people think I’m a “big blog” or that certain mutuals are, but honestly it’s all relative and just depends on your experience/your own sense of scale

plus being “famous” (ew) doesn’t really matter as much on here as it does with other social media sites? since it’s not public, how big your following is doesn’t really have any weight unless you ,,.. constantly tell everyone about it all the time, which I don’t think any reasonable person does 💀

19.) do you have a crush on a mutual?

no but if I could I would kiss you all on the forehead 

20.) tags if you wanna:

@darthamidalas @mistermiraclles @miraclemoreno @leo-moon @adverbedly @zinzinina @jettia @mandalorianmuffin @dentglitch @oloreaa @velvetmel0n + anyone else who wants to!
