Art Prompt! Feel free to decline if you don't want to but... Draw your yandere untraumatized!

✦゜ANSWERED: AAAA I don't have the time do a full piece of UT Ren rn, but I did do a lil 10 min redraw of some of my old art!! It also features (untraumatised) younger Ren and BNHA AU Ren!!

Yanderen't Ren facts !

He's a soft, quiet boi who prefers it when others talk.

Very owl-like with his wide, inquisitive stare and quiet nature. Sometimes you can't even tell if he's there unless you call for him.

A child genius that grew up with a talent for technology. He graduated university with a PhD in computer science because he thought it was his calling, but got burnt out and eventually found his passion in being a tattoo artist instead.

You can often find Ren on walks with Violet and her plants at night, or helping his other childhood friend Leon with stretches at the beach during the day.

He's in an alt indie band with a few of his close friends and often switches between playing the bass and electric guitar!!

Ren takes his mother to a butterfly conservatory each year for her birthday because she absolutely adores them. She always tells her children that they're lucky to share such beautiful eyes with her loving husband, because they remind her of morpho butterflies.

Often sits and listens to Elanor ramble on and on about her day while he waits for you to finish work. He won't give her much input, but he'll be nodding his head and taking in every word instead.

Owns 14 different hoodies because you always seem to steal them when he's not looking. Sometimes he'll leave your favourite candy in the pockets for you to find.

He likes to pick up Hannah from university every so often, and they usually go on night drives on his motorcycle whenever the stress from exams become too much.

Dyes the ends of his hair blonde to feel closer to his father. Ren hugely admires him for founding his own company at such a young age, and was a big inspiration for him growing up.

Ren also got to marry his beloved childhood friend after you proposed to him in an all-too-familiar playground!!

[[ALRIGHT CHAT!!! RP STARTER TIME,,, first meeting with jasper lesgooo]]

[Jasper has just came back from a flea market of sorts, with a large bag in his arms filled with all sorts of knick-knacks and watchamacallits. His mind was set into going back to his shelter.... until he saw an old-fashioned church on his way home.]

[The boy never acknowledged its existence before, so seeing it has caught him a bit off guard. He was internally cursing at himself for not taking notice of the church before, HONESTLY ITS A SKILL ISSUE ON HIS PART.]

[He walked over to the old building, and then... he spotted a girl. He spotted Anastasia.]

[What do you do?]

- wishing you a good day, @ask-jasper-cameron

Anastasia knelt in the garden outside the church, her fingers delicately tending to the flowers afore the quaint establishment, some of which remarkably bald— having been newly clipped and harvested for Jay’s bouquet the day prior. She carefully arranged the remaining blooms, coaxing their petals into place with a tender caress.

“You’ll grow back in no time,” She smiles, positively beaming— the pleasant radiance of the gesture almost paralleling the vivid blossoms. “But, it’s more important to offer our God-given gifts to those in need. Let’s just hope Jay will be appreciative of them above.”

Her hum, a gentle melody, floated through the air as she lost herself in the tranquility of her task, oblivious to the world around her. The thriving fauna seemed to lean towards her, as if they, too, were enchanted by her presence.

Unbeknownst to her, a pair of eyes watched from the distance. Strange, Jasper’s never seen them before.

Howdy! I recently learned about ambrosia beetles and their specialized structures (mycangia) that hold and transport symbiotic fungi that helps break down wood! What a cool relationship, even if it does wreak havoc on trees across the world. Would you happen to have any pictures of ambrosia beetles/Scolytinae? They tend to be very cute and bullet-shaped and I would love to see more of them!

Ambrosia beetles nurture their gardens of fungus with alcohol

Ethanol in dying trees helps ambrosia fungi flourish

Ambrosia beetles survive by boring into trees and growing fungi inside. They prefer stressed or dying trees, which have more ethanol—an alcohol that's produced naturally by the plant—flowing through their tissues. To find out why, researchers took a closer to look at the black stem borer (pictured), an ambrosia beetle native to Asia that has become a tree-boring pest in North America...

Ambrosia beetle - Wikipedia

The beetles excavate tunnels in dead or stressed trees into which they introduce fungal gardens, their sole source of nutrition. After landing on a suitable tree, an ambrosia beetle excavates a tunnel in which it releases its fungal symbiont. The fungus penetrates the plant's xylem tissue, extracts nutrients from it, and concentrates the nutrients on and near the surface of the beetle gallery. Ambrosia fungi are typically poor wood degraders, and instead utilize less demanding nutrients. Symbiotic fungi produce and detoxify ethanol, which is an attractant for ambrosia beetles and likely prevents growth of antagonistic pathogens and selects for other beneficial symbionts...

Were you the one who started the trend on the discord server, or did Tipped Arrows only tag you because you knew about it and I hadn’t tagged you myself? If you have a design, I wanna see it too!

aaa!! Yes!! I made a gijinka for him a while ago, and somehow that ended up with nearly a dozen people also drawing him weheh.. C:

Im so happy seeing all the designs for him… every single one from the discord are tucked safely in my gallery!!!!

This one is still a doodle, need to redo it… 😵‍💫

Ok so I was scrolling through Amazon looking for some AAA merch (we have basically nothing here in Europe compared to the US) and I found this:

“The latest in the acclaimed series of art books celebrates the exciting new series AGATHA ALL ALONG!

Marvel Television presents a deluxe ART OF book celebrating the highly anticipated AGATHA ALL ALONG! This volume is filled with all the features you’d expect, including a stunning gallery of never-before-seen artwork and in-depth interviews with the creative team. But now, the ART OF series is better than ever, packaged in a beautiful slipcase with exclusive lithographs so you can journey down the Witches’ Road alongside Agatha Harkness!”

Rn it’s only available to pre-order and it comes out…THE DAY OF MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY (April 29th)! The fucking chances?!?!?!

I was giving @asica-black a tour of my "2024 trip to London" photo album. We were looking at "what are we going to do" aaa paintings and stuff at the national portrait gallery and came across King George IV :(.

We were laughing at the description of "vanity and swagger" for him (it's a very fitting and honest description), and then we looked at who painted it...

RICHARD COSWAY IS THE GUY THOMAS JEFFERSON CUCKOLDED 😭 (I do not approve of Jefferson and Maria Cosway's relationship. It's toxic and gives the ick so much).

hgcz liveblog time!

along with the playlist, hehe-- which has a strong start! hollow knight soundtrack my beloved, & "truth, beauty and hatred" is a very cinematic song in general, but that's mostly an aside. let's get into it!

cover is immediately gorgeous, and i love the foreward. stories & love are always a good place to start a project.

also a very good amount of cw at the top, some of them VERY intriguing 👁️ but like they have clearly done their homework irt keeping things safe for readers, which is nice!

aaaand i am immediately obsessed with the way they have incorporated hermitcraft-y puns into the worldbuilding from the ground floor. "threat control group" is rly good. maybe they can make a trading card game on the side. and scar being a former actor is SO funny. i hope he was on a bunch of trashy tv shows. can't wait to see what other fun stuff gets incorporated into the worldbuilding/plot aaa

and also very intrigued by the idea of villains As Well As heroes! obviously we know hotguy and cuteguy are going to be hugely important here, but i wonder who else will be out on the streets, for good or for ill....? and for that matter, whether we'll have a whole rogue's gallery of villains, or a single outstanding nemesis? much to consider

(also..... keeping an eye on that biohazard. Could Be A Good Number Of Things. is my money on sculk? maybe. but that's mostly bc i remember the mod team posting about being super excited about sculk a while back LMAO)

A Look Into The Past

Jade Leech x Reader ;

What happens when you find out that Jade used to have piercings before he came into NRC with you?

(yes this is to feed myself as well tskr Yana-sensei for giving us the idea of Jade with piercings...)

reader is a sophomore in this fic! same year as the twins!

Read Part 2 here! Read Part 3 here!

You were hanging around at Mostro Lounge, your hands busy stirring the drink that you had ordered for yourself while you studied for the upcoming exams. You also had earphones in while you worked, making sure no one was around to bother. Although, that didn’t stop Floyd barreling in and calling out to you. ”Koi-chan~!”

You jumped from the shock and comically threw your pen up in the moment, stumbling over the table to catch it. “F-Floyd! At least give me a heads up before running towards me like that..!” Floyd giggles from the reaction, bending down to rest his arm on the table. He was still in his basketball uniform- his hair strewn wildly across his head and face. 

“Nee~ Umihebi-kun and Kani-chan were talking about their childhood photos earlier! They showed photos of when they were a tiiiny little fishie~” Floyd says, grinning. “Does Koi-chan have any pictures too?”

“Well that’s random..? None that I’ll show you for free tho!” you spat, crossing your arms. “I’ll show you mine and Jade’s! He won’t know~”

Hearing the name of the other eel, you can’t help but be intrigued. “Well, I guess two of you against one is good enough...” You took out your phone from your pocket, scrolling down the gallery to find any old pictures you could use. “Oh god, this is an embarrassing picture..”

In the picture is you at 4-year old, running around the beachside chasing a lost butterfly. Your hair was blown around by the wind while you had the biggest grin plastered on your face, the biggest Floyd’s ever seen. 

“Hee, so Koi-chan can actually smile!”

“Oh shut it! Just because I don’t smile as much nowadays doesn’t mean I can’t!” You yell back, pouting at Floyd. “That’s a picture of me from when I was four. I think I have another one…” You pull up another picture, this time you were much older and in your junior high’s uniform. “This is… 4 years ago?” Floyd cooed at the sight. “D’aww, Koi-chan’s so tiny back then!”

“Hey, hold up your end of the bargain! Where’s your picture?” Floyd smirked and held up his phone, showing a picture of him in junior high holding onto what you assume would be one of Azul’s tentacles. 

“So cute…! You and Jade used to look like this?? Adorable!!” 

“Ah, but we don’t always look like each other. We had a phase~ We tried changing up our styles to see what fits~ Jade looks way different that he does now!”

“He does? I mean, how would it be so different?”

“Nn? You never knew?”

“Knew what?” You asked, leaning on the table and taking a sip from the drink.

“That Jade used to have a shit ton of piercings?”

You outright choked on your beverage, gripping the edge of the table. “He WHAT?!”

Floyd laughs, throwing himself on the sofa while cackling. “Yeah! It was easier to tell us apart~ He used to style his hair backwards and his ears were chock full of piercings!” 

You were still sputtering in disbelief. “Ain’t no way. *That* Jade?! The one who always looks so prim and proper?!”

“Yeah~ I got pics, wanna see~?”

Curiosity kills the cat, so to speak. As soon as Floyd pulls up a picture of his twin in his merform, his hair slicked back messily and a bunch of piercings on his left ear alongside the sturgeon scale earring he still dons, you could feel your soul leave your body. Not just that, Jade had stuck out his tongue showcasing the silver piercing on the flesh, along with the one on his bottom lip. 

“W-Wh- Hhuh-?! Aaa.. ?! That’s Jade?!”

“In the flesh.”

The silver and blacks of the metal seemingly made his teal hair pop out more. The countless studs on the inner side of his ear and above his eyebrow were shining under the lighting, and you could identify other types of piercings like a helix and an industrial piercing on the top of his ear. Oddly, it also made the fins on the side of his head look much more ethereal. Not only that, he had an undercut instead of his current hairstyle. Floyd says they were in the phase of trying out hairstyles, though.

It was almost as if something unlocked within you, your cheeks heating up as you stared at the picture with a hand over your mouth.

“Shit, he’s kinda hot.” Floyd laughs.

But what's Mostro Lounge without Jade being around to serve? The noises from your table has gathered his attention, watching intently from afar while you chat animatedly with his twin. There's something about the volume of your voices that echoes through the empty lounge, as Jade picks up the words "piercings" and his name being mentioned.

"My, I don't really take well for people who talk about me behind my back." Jade approached the table, a hand on his chest as he fake sniffles.

"Urk- Jade! H-hey there...!" You greet, flailing your arms around. "Hey Jade~ I was just showing Koi-chan our old pics! See?" Floyd took your phone from the table, showing Jade your old pictures as well. "Fufu, how adorable. Which picture of us did you show her, Floyd?"

"The one where we played tag with Azul~ Oh but I showed her a picture of you with your old piercings!"

You held out Floyd's phone towards Jade, and he gracefully picks it up and examines the picture. "Ah, this one. I didn't want to tell anyone here about the piercings, but... I do miss having them around."

Jade leans down, and you could see a few faint scars where his piercings would have been in the past.

"Dont'cha still have them somewhere in our room?"

"I think so. I'll look into it when I have the time, maybe."

-----

You had found yourself thinking and imagining the sight of Jade with his piercings more and more ever since that day. You daydreamed about it, drew sketches, even caught yourself staring at the eel-mer sometimes.

Even with all that, you truly didn't imagine to see a huge crowd in front of Mostro Lounge today waiting for said man.

"Eh? What's with the long line?"

"Haven't you heard? They said their vice-housewarden suddenly came into class with a totally different look!"

"Dude, I wanna see how he looks!"

That has gotten you more confused than anything. It wasn't until the crowd started going crazy and bumping against each other that you realize the person in question walking in, a hand reaching up to take off his hat.

"J-Jade?!"

"Oya, how nice for you to have come again."

You almost rolled your eyes, since you were practically a regular there. But you couldn't bring yourself to answer or get a witty remark out, with how Jade looked at you smugly.

His hair was partly slicked back, leaving his bangs naturally on the left side, giving him a slightly mature yet playful aura. On his left ear, along with the sturgeon scale earring, was a bunch of his old piercings relocated back onto his ear. There were a few additions you never saw on the old picture though- like the pair of silver studs attached to a line of chain that went from on top of his ear down to the lobe. The lip piercing was also back on the left side of his lips, even though it was just a clip-on.

"H...Holy shit."

"I assume you like my new look, yes?" He smirked, putting his hat back on his head.

You didn't even have to reply, your head just automatically nodded as you stared at his new look.

(somehow, his lips just looked even more kissable.)

It felt unreal for you as you sat down in the lounge, watching him work. Maybe ogling is the better word, seeing how you couldn't take your eyes off the man. You had a hand over your mouth as well, trying to hide the pink tint in your face.

Floyd notices and smirks, leaning on the side of your table after delivering a few drinks to a nearby table.

"So? What'cha think?"

"He's hotter in person."

Jade overheard the conversation while serving another table, and had to stop a sheepish laugh from coming out.

"Pfft- fufu, perhaps I should dress up like this more often."

Once again, I hate doing backgrounds so I'm just gonna drop this here :³

And the drawing I did in my tiny DM notebook:

Just a silly new campaign of C&C with the Plantars, I imagine them trying to continue with a new story the last campaign they had, and maybe foreshadowing some of the story of the last chapters :)))))

This drawing is inspired by another drawing of another person buuuuut I kinda lost the drawing and the credits in my gallery, it's weird but yeah that's it :)

For the first time ever I had my work displayed at an exhibition! It was at a mini, one room gallery, belonging to my university, with the exhibition being the culmination of one week long colaborative work in groups of three to four students. We were given the topic "Ambivalence" and got told to run wild with it. Together with my group we've made two pieces; a blanket, that the audience was encouraged to touch pierced with over four thousand pins

And a rendition of classic Polish lullaby (sung by yours truly!)

(The translation under the cut)

So many stars above So many towns below The stars give the towns a sign That the kids have to go to bed…

Oh, sleep, my dear If you'd like a star from the sky, you'll get it Tell me what you wish for I would give you everything So why don't you want to sleep?

Oh, sleep, because at night, When the stars glimmer in the sky All the children, even the bad ones Are asleep, All except for you

Aaa… Aaa… There were two kittens Aaa… Aaa… Gray-brown, gray-brown, both of them

Oh, sleep, because just now The moon yawned and is about to fall asleep And when the morning comes The moon will be ashamed That he fell asleep, but not you

Aaa… Aaa… There were two kittens Aaa… Aaa… Gray-brown, gray-brown, both of them

Oh, sleep, my dear If you'd like a star from the sky, you'll get it Tell me what you wish for I would give you everything So why don't you want to sleep?
