Also, are you willing to say what script you wrote?
I did a feature length adaptation of very roughly the first 6 books of The Aeneid.
What I did was the fall of Troy (literally the night the city fell is when it starts), following Aeneas getting his family out of Troy, realizing his wife has fallen behind, and being stopped by Aphrodite (his mom, if you don't know mythology- and I used Greek names because the Romans wouldn't exist for another 500 years or so).
It focuses on the surviving Trojans escape to the fledgling Carthaginean empire and Aeneas' romance with Dido coming on the heels of his wife's death (and noting it took several months to get to Carthage, but not including those adventures or mentions of them), and the conflict being stirred up by Hera against Aeneas via Anna.
Act 3 is the Trojans escaping Carthage, Aeneas' abandonment of Dido, her death, and the curse she lays on the Trojan descendants, with a final set of end cards that reveal to the audience that Aeneas' descendants are the founders of Rome itself, which annihilated Carthage in the Punic Wars.
That way, it ends on a note that's satisfying for the viewers, but also plugs neatly in to a sequel if approved (the entire Aeneid would be done as a trilogy).
The professor told me Day 1 of class when I said that was what I wanted to write that it was going to be impossible to impress her with my script, because mythology adaptations were stale and formulaic.
And on the last day of class, she announced that I was the only student in 20 years of her teaching the course to receive a perfect score on the final draft.
#my final 1:1 was so nervewracking because my draft before that felt too straight laced and focused on aeneas#so i added in a lot more and increased the length to 1 page below the cutoff#and i was so worried about doing that on the final because no one had complained yet about what i was worried about#but the professor told me in our 1:1 after the final that she was fully prepared to bring that up#but when she read my new script she first regretted setting such a high maximum but thoroughly loved my script#and i have a minor in classical literature and culture- i have 64 awards at the state and national level for my knowledge of classics#so i deviated from the source material with purpose and in ways that stripped some of the mythology from it#and grounded it more in the world as we perceive it#but the gods were still very much a part of the story and had a very clear role to play with strong motivations#i added an element to the gods that elevated the conflict above just 'boo i don't like him'#and i'm still very proud of that#ask

I think my copy of the game is broken they've been doing this for 30 minutes
Crop of the Biolizard edit I did bc it makes me laugh:
#art#sonic the hedgehog#sonic#shadow the hedgehog#rouge the bat#their dynamic is so funny to me like hello what episode of Untucked is this#I am rotating them in a 2 bed 1 bath apartment in my mind#Also very proud of how this turned out I think I'm finally finding a comic rendering style that doesn't make me want to rip my hair out#Simplify baybee it's a comic not an illustration you can get a little crazy with it#Spoiler alert. Getting looser with lineart and better at colour schemes and simplifying shading. Is good actually.#It's so much easier to eyeball what a colour would look like in a setting instead of colourpicking the OG palette and struggling with...#...like 9 overlay and multiply and soft/hard light layers#Approximating colour genuinely looks better than forcing local colour into the piece. As long as the values are still there it works out#comic

Despite being much larger than Cohozuna is, Horroboros also has a lot more bones, so it doesn't yield that much more meat compared to a Cohozuna. On the bright side, though, it's also much less fatty.

i love to see people who are like "you can talk about csa but not around minors that's gross!" like idk how to tell you this but. who do you think is getting csa'd. i'll give you a hint: the first letter in csa does not stand for "adult"
#nnstuff#was browsing the tmnt competition cuz i havent paid attention to it much#and that anon made me laugh#that anon was prolly a kid too but like still. its funny. i dont blame them for thinking that#i just think its funny is all#anyway good on the mod for being very level headed about stuff#they're doing a good job and i'm proud of them even if it's not how i'd handle things- cuz i am an adult who is used to talking about CSA#and they're a kid who is clearly uncomfortable with it and definitely could've responded way worse than they did#csa tw

This was the kiss he’d been waiting for. It was a gunshot. It was prairie fire. It was the spin of Makker’s Wheel. Jesper felt the pounding of his heart—or was it Wylan’s?—like a stampede in his chest, and the only thought in his head was a happy, startled, Oh.
Please do not use, edit, or repost my art without permission.

for someone who wants to bang a werewolf, I sure do scream like a fire alarm when my dog brings me "gifts" (dead lizard) realistically if a man brought me his hunt as a gift I'd pass out.
#she brought me an ALIVE turtle once and I still don't know how to unpack that like emotionally#where the fuck did you get that#my little hunter#i'm so proud of her but also please stop bringing me birds and mice and lizards#she leaves them right outside my bedroom which is very sweet but also means I almost step on them every time#screaming crying throwing up trying to clean up her gifts

So, I know you've talked about how Jevil and Grillby's relationship is strained, but does Grillby ever warm up to him? In your fight comic, Jevils been shown to comfort Grillby, in small ways anyhow, lending him his cape and letting him mourn. You've stated how Jevil sympathizes with him. Does grillby ever do anything back? Does he ever comfort Jevil or help take care of him in any way?
Yes! Grillby did eventually warm up to him, although it took a while. And their relationship wasn't perfect after this event. There were still times afterwards where Grillby was in a low and hated Jevil all over again.. But this was the start.
The start to Grillby realizing that hating Jevil and being mean to him doesn't make him feel any better. And no matter how much he hates Jevil, its not gonna bring back what he lost. Its also getting harder and harder to hate Jevil anyways. He protects their group with all his might. And even with a horrible wound on his leg and exhaustion pulling at his soul.. he still stays up late to keep the fire going and guard the group.
And despite how mean Grillby has been, Jevil still treats him with the same care he does everyone else. Still sharing the same amount of food, still protecting him with all his might. Grillby doesn't understand why he does it. He doesn't know why Jevil would care about him despite how mean he's been. Why would Jevil be kind to him? Maybe that confusion is why that "thank you" made him light up so much. Its feels.. good, to be thanked. It feels good to be kind. Being kind feels much better than hating someone endlessly.
#my response#undertale#deltarune#seam and jevil#grillby#goner kid#spamton#endogeny#seam deltarune#jevil#I also tried to do somewhat full backgrounds and a lighting effect with Grillby and everyone-#I didn't do it consistently on every panel and it could have come out a liiiil better#but ultimately I am very proud of this comic and think it came out absolutely shmashing ✨#Might not draw full backgrounds again anytime soon becuase of how long this took to make-#but I'm still glad I did it :}}}
