they tried to rebrand as The Criminals but riz is literally the city council's treasurer and also turns out people in their late 20s don't really name their friend groups. so now they're The Intrepid Heroes
#fantasy high#figueroth faeth#kristen applebees#adaine abernant#gorgug thistlespring#fabian seacaster#riz gukgak#yes this is sorta from the same thing Ive been doing for future!riz lol. that riz is the same design basically#just the above board sona#u can kiiinda tell which of the bad kids I have a very clear vision for their future design and which I kinda wing it for lol#kristen's tank top is white and the coat is galaxy tie dye btw. I didnt have the energy to express that in ink but thats the ult version#adaine I truly imagine to grow up to be the perpetual t shirt and jeans person but she carries her sword everywhere#gorgugs truth is that shes just hot she can wear anything. but I do give him the skirt hike bc I love him#I really like skirt hike... such a fun thing to put in designs. if ur garment has no variance in how it falls or drapes u can do it urself#this is also a little bit of an exercise in how much of an accessory I can freehand from memory#fig's bass I straight up did not fact check for. just rawdogging it memory only. same with fandrangor and adaine's crocs#I did write in my funny little document that gorgug takes up baking and is good at it bc I think itd be good for him#to do basically chemistry and math that also feeds people#out of them... kristen and riz would be Good good at it. but riz would get way too stressed abt the recipe and kristen bakes by#eyeballing the texture. fabian likes decorating but refuses to get anywhere near the heat of an oven. adaine isnt good at it first try#and is like well my effort goes to other things actually. fig Loves baking and Nobody lets her into the kitchen#idk why this manifests so clear in my head. must be bc of recent foccacia events#living in the subtropics is hell for baking nobody try it ok? I tell u

Id : a rendered digital painting of binx and andhera on a stone building and vegetation landscape. Binx is standing on the steps of large stone stairs and leaning over the stone railing with a soft smile to tie a piece of yellow fabric on andhera's arm. She has big brown moth wings with a golden key design and moth antennas over their chin length hair. She is wearing a yellow and cream dress, with puffy sleeves and a slit in the cream body of the dress showing the yellow underskirt. Many purple and red lost objects are sewn onto the dress such as earrings, keys, socks, flowers, scissors etc. Andhera has his back to the viewer, on horseback and looking up at binx with the same soft expression. They're wearing an iridescent dark purple armour with crystal-like designs, goldwn earrings, and holding a crystalline black halberd. Shining yellow moths are flying around them, purple roses are blooming, and a slight border frames the image with cristals, thread, keys and moths./end id
im normal and spent a normal amount of time, effort and thought on this
#and it's not even good lol#i am not 100% sure on the id bc its been so lomg#acofaf#a court of fey and flowers#binx choppley#prince andhera#binxhera#BECAUSE i dont know if ppl will know#binxs dress has trinkets in andhera colours#the sleeves mimic wings (on the og dress)#her wings have keys on them but thats in your face#andheras armour being just for show but tbh it could also be heavily magic aka i put way too much effort on the colors#the border having flowers and sewing and stones#shining moths are. to me#a manifestation of binxs magic and care#yeah yeah roses we get it whatever#also theyre complementary colours and this is very pleasing to me#also im not sure abt their skintones but that just happens when i learn new people

thinking about how Humans Are Space Orcs stories always talk about how indestructible humans are, our endurance, our ability to withstand common poisons, etc. and thats all well and good, its really fun to read, but it gets repetitive after a while because we aren't all like that.
And that got me thinking about why this trope is so common in the first place, and the conclusion I came to is actually kind of obvious if you think about it. Not everyone is allowed to go into space. This is true now, with the number of physical restrictions placed on astronauts (including height limits), but I imagine it's just as strict in some imaginary future where humans are first coming into contact with alien species. Because in that case there will definitely be military personnel alongside any possible diplomatic parties.
And I imagine that all interactions aliens have ever had up until this point have been with trained personnel. Even basic military troops conform to this standard, to some degree. So aliens meet us and they're shocked and horrified to discover that we have no obvious weaknesses, we're all either crazy smart or crazy strong (still always a little crazy, academia and war will do that to you), and not only that but we like, literally all the same height so there's no way to tell any of us apart.
And Humans Are Death Worlders stories spread throughout the galaxy. Years or decades or centuries of interspecies suspicion and hostilities preventing any alien from setting foot/claw/limb/appendage/etc. on Earth until slowly more beings are allowed to come through. And not just diplomats who keep to government buildings, but tourists. Exchange students. Temporary visitors granted permission to go wherever they please, so they go out in search of 'real terran culture' and what do they find?
Humans with innate heart defects that prevent them from drinking caffeine. Humans with chronic pain and chronic fatigue who lack the boundless endurance humans are supposedly famous for. Humans too tall or too short or too fat to be allowed into space. Humans who are so scared of the world they need to take pills just to function. Humans with IBS who can't stand spicy foods, capsaicin really is poison to them. Lactose intolerance and celiac disease, my god all the autoimmune disorders out there, humans who struggle to function because their own bodies fight them. Humans who bruise easily and take too long to heal. Humans who sustained one too many concussions and now struggle to talk and read and write. Humans who've had strokes. Humans who were born unable to talk or hear or speak, and humans who through some accident lost that ability later.
Aliens visit Earth, and do you know what they find? Humanity, in all its wholeness.
#humans are space orcs#humans in space#earth is a deathworld#earth is space australia#tagging this so that ppl can find it even though the space shit i write about always feels like its in direct opposition to all the pop tag#also my biggest pet peeve in all of writing - all writing. everywhere. not just in fanfic but books and tv and movies too - is when people#write off an injury by saying something like 'oh nothing bad just a couple of scratches some bruising and a minor concussion' like girl WHA#MiNOr ConCuSSioN is such an oxymoron and I hate it so fucking much. like i dont care how minor it was thats still brain damage.#especially when the same character does this more than once. like im sorry ms. but uh. you can no longer read. or talk eloquently. sorry#evidence: my brother has had two 'minor' concussions and now cannot read write or speak without tremendous effort. And like its totally#ruined my ability to watch action shows/movies because now i just sit there and count how many concussions there characters are getting#after a certain point it becomes totally impossible to believe that these guys are able to function. (still fun to watch tho im not a hater

the song came on my shuffle and would not leave me alone until i penned this i'm so sorry
#this is way too much effort but like. music makes me feel things y'know?#trolls#floyd#branch#john dory#clay#bruce#cannot recommend Comfortably Numb enough as like. THE listless + dizzy song#no other tune has quite nailed the feeling like you're about to pass out at any second#also the human scream of agony in the middle is great too#either way#don't look at me#is he dead? i couldn't decide so thats up to u#long post#undescribed

this animatic is going to kill me. this has been my artistic experience for the past few days
big things coming
#m.txt#wip spam#<HAVENT SEEN THAT TAG IN A WHILE HUH?#i think theres a setting to alter how dark the onion skinning is and i need to adjust it because its so fucking hard to work with#but i simply cannot be fucked to find it. too much effort#i feel compelled to share this specific frame because everyones drawing fanart of this fucking line. theyre obsessed#and its not fair bc now it looks like i picked this scene to animatic because of this line. becaues everyones obsessed with it#but thats not why i picked it. i picked it because bill is a silly guy </3#gravity falls#ok theres enough tags that this wont show up in there now i think lol#i think this animatic is 1. longer 2. more complicated 3. more animated than the last one. yippee!!#cant really know for sure until its done though. at least on the longer front

the "woman and nonmen" crowd makes me so upset as a bigender person. some people will see my genderqueer womanhood and cheer me on right up until they realize that the genderqueer part of my identity does in fact come from my manhood
like i cant wrap my head around how a lot of other trans people dont see anything wrong with defining nonbinary identities with binary terms
#this took so much effort 2 type wesring my wrist brace i had 2 fix so many typos#anyways. im tiref#multigender#multiphobia#i think thats the eord ppl r using for it?#trans#bigender#genderqueer#nonbinary#ask 2 tag#ebby echoes#trans tag#transmultiphobia

#pikmin#captain olimar#ft. louie captain shepherd and collin#as well as#moss (pikmin)#watched a stream series of pikmin 4 (its frankenbugs' series) thats what this is about really#but mostly. I just love olimar. I just really enjoy that man#also this really got me flexing those bande dessinée muscles from back thens lol#Ive missed drawin with this kinda proportions... I should do it more#Im gonna draw an olimar to put in my wallet. I need to make my life harder to explain to strangers#I also wanna. add more details to his space suit. make it look more like real life space suit for fun & entertainment#man I enjoy the animals in pikmin so much. they really are just like. animals. theyre animals#its great I love how genuinely bug-lookin the bugs are even with the stylization. pikmin and pokemon are really good at that#would like to learn how to do that... sometimes in the future#oh yeah fun fact. my effort at cleaning up my undercut a few days ago went badly. right before I went to a family reunion thing for 2 days#so I was goin out of my mind at that event postin abt olimar bc I love him#and then. when I got home. I decided to shave my head instead of trying to fix the haircut again#and so the sequence of events becomes I post about olimar -> I enter my bald arc#I am okay with this. have a good night lads. binding books is actually really fun u should try it

#say it with me folks!#when we introduce diversity to (much beloved) characters#we DO NOT strip them. of their individuality#ESPECIALLY!!! YOUNG GIRLS#AND THATS THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT. OF WONDLA#we want better representation. that means we're making characters poc. thats so awesome BUT HOLY FUCK#you render that effort NULL AND VOID! when you DONT INCLUDE#EVERY PIECE OF PERSONALITY#AND SELF EXPRESSION#THAT THE ORIGINAL CHARACTER HAD#i cant believe how STUPID MOVIE STUDIOS ARE#the search for wondla#wondla#adaptation#fanart#my art#text

what if I PROJECTED on SUN FNAF. what then
#cherry rambles#just saw a post where someone depicted sun adhering SO closely to social rules and its making me Have Thoughts#more specifically sun probably taught himself the 'good' and 'friendly' ways to act because thats what gets people to like him 😊😊😊#so he says his please and thank yous and listens intensely when people talk to him#and he only displays his very BEST traits because thats the only part of him people will love#and how infuriating it must be for him when his counterpart#someone who doesnt put nearly as much effort in looking 'nice' and 'presentable'#is still loveable#well that would mean that sun was loveable from the start and he didnt need to do so much work to Fix Himself!#but thats an impossible concept#so he just works better and hard to be more appealing. more loveable#anyway.

the way literally no one said that
#“j2 shippers tend to skew older”#“AND YOU THINK THATS DISGUSTING RIGHT? YOU'RE AN AGEIST MISOGYNIST RIGHT???”#like girl 😭#sorry everyone but also not that sorry i spend so much time and effort trying to avoid getting into phannie drama#i have to jump at the opportunity to get into drama with people on the outside#i need my fix#all this said i know people DO tend to jump to 'this person is too old to be in fandom' and if you do that you suck just for the record#this is less about too old for fandom though and more about like. being actively known for bullying lol#while being a wholeass adult#regardless of if you're 25 or 55

hello hermitcraft fandom have the only image i will ever draw of the funny minecraft doofuses
my eyes hurt why did i go nuts with the shading
image i struggled greatly to reference:
#i forgot to paint some parts of the shading pretend like you cant see that#also the arm thats not facing the camera is the bane of my entire existence i hate it so much#how do i tag hermitcraft things#hermitcraft#tango#tangotek#tango tek#is that enough. you know what yes#please appreciate the nether bricks they dont make a lot of sense but i spent frankly an absurd amount of effort on them for how they look#thank you and good night
