Someone send me €50 I need a new tattoo

#not even about the tattoo I just want to hang out with lu the tattoo artist my best friend in the whole world #but I do also want a specific tattoo #I'm OBSESSED with the healing process for them bc like they look soooo blue and dark when I get them and then they fade to green #and then they go back to like a lighter blue and it's so gorgeous #issue now though is that I want a solid colour piece and that's not really her style so I should go somewhere else but I don't want to.#bigger issue is I'm unemployed

Hello! I was wondering if you’d be willing to take commissions someday 👀. No pressure tho! I just love your art so much

The short answer: "not at the moment, but it is very possible in the future'!

The slightly longer answer: I would have to figure out a good pricing and payment system! PD-MDZS is also where most of my free time goes, so until my life settles down a bit, I would be on the slow side to complete them.

#Ask #Even longer answer: I technically do - but it's been people I know irl asking and handing me physical money/bank transfers.#I'm working on one right now but the tricky part with pricing is that they want the physical copy of it - which is different to online comm #Fun fact: I have gotten a fair amount of commissions from a local hobbiest quilting club.#They show me their pintrest inspiration board and tell me size specifications and I draw out patterns on parchment paper.#I am probably being undervalued by a group of 50-60 year old women but they call me handsome and say I'm doing a good job so...#There was also someone a while back who asked about a tattoo design and I was *so* enthusiastic but I just got too busy to commit.#I truly do appreciate people asking - It is *extremely* flattering that you like my art enough to want to commission something!#I will re-examine my situation in a few months! Someday really is the keyword here; I think I'd have a lot of fun with it!#(All the money would go back into buying more artbooks and supplies too! What a dream!)#Through this blog I've gotten to know a few people who do commissions for a living who I will probably pester for pricing advice #Time really is the only barrier for me right now B*(

my oikawa hot take is i don't actually think he would have piercings or tattoos. in my mind palace he is not a fan of needles. not necessarily a phobia, just.. not a fan. i could see him maybe wearing clip on earrings sometimes but otherwise.... he is boring.

#ok so i don't actually see Many people hcing oikawa with tattoos BUT!! i do see ppl give him earrings and other piercings a lot #oikawa is a fascinating individual in many ways but i also think he is kinda boring in other ways. he's multifaceted.#oikawa would be offended by the notion that not having tattoos/piercings makes him boring which is why i said it #and also i think his friends call him boring for it bc they will take any opportunity to tease oikawa #anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk. u should know i DO think iwa would have piercings/tattoos #<- will elaborate if anyone wants to know specifics bc i do have things in mind

My next tattoo project has been accepted by the tattooist 🙈🙈🙈 Their artist name is "Odji" and they do SUCH COOL SHIT I fell in love the moment I saw their stuff.... I'm getting 3 of their flash together above one of my knees (wrapping around the leg a lil) >:)

The session isn't till november tho (I travel at the end of october and I didn't want to have a big healing tatt WHILE TRAVELLING) but I'll keep this lil thread updated when I get there 🙏

#beary talk #beary life #odji #tattoo #tattoos #tatouage #tatouages #odji tattoo #odji tatouage #rly wanna get around to finding a handpoke tattooist around where I live too to try it out #ALSO I GOTTA MOVE MY ASS AND ACTUALLY DRAW THE SPECIFIC TATTS I WANT mkfjhgdsmkgfdsjg #there's bands around the forearms and bulls either on the ribs or shoulder/chest that I want #but I gotta actually try designs and see what shapes could fit....#at least for the bulls now I think Odji could be a rly good style fit so... I know who to go ask to do them (maybe)#if they find the idea cool when i get around to doing it #but also about this one tatt on my leg #the idea once it's healed it to design a little 'fanfare' of tiny demons and fauns playing instruments #like a marching band #going around the kneecap #i think it'll look rly fun and cool #and later still on my other leg I'll get sth that's a bit equivalent to this BUT WITH BATS #because bats FUCK HARD best animal tbh

hello i believe you asked to be reminded about petalpressed? that sounds very interesting do explain

Hello yes! okay so rundown of Petalpressed:

In general, Petalpressed is an AU template I created that focuses on flower symbolism. It's like a combo hanahaki and soulmate tattoos au, except only taking the best parts of both. So everybody has a "living" tattoo somewhere on their body of a plant (or plant-adjacent, it's very broad - so fungi, lichens, algae, etc also count). The plant, in some way, represents or symbolizes the individual, usually via flower language, though it's totally a personalized thing so you can get as funky with it as you want. It can be absolutely anywhere on their body (face/head, back, legs, etc), take up a completely random amount of space (tip of finger vs entire torso, etc), and it will change based on the state of the individual.

Okay rest including PJO-ification under the cut cause this got long:

For example, when the person is a baby their tattoo will appear as just a seed or bulb or whatever is applicable for that plant. The plant will also probably be semi-ambiguous at that point or change plant types as babies don't really have a ton of defining traits. By the time they start settling into being an individual they'll get a more clear plant and it will most likely stay that for the rest of their lives, unless they experience a major shift in their identity that would cause it to change. It also is unlikely to change locations on the body unless for the same reason. The plant will also reflect the person's physical or emotional state, such as wilting if they're very sick or upset, blooming if they're extremely happy, etc etc. Some people may also have generalized versus specific tattoos, such as general "roses" rather than "roses of a specific color" in which case their tattoo may change colors to match mood/plant language associated with that specific color of the plant/or just at random, depending on person.

The soulmate/hanahaki thing comes in when the person develops romantic feelings or enters a mutual romantic relationship (specific because i'm aroace so I like including normalization of not having a partner, even QPP - there's still leeway there though with how individuals categorize "romantic" and obviously it's a template so there's freedom to mess with it). If they have a crush they may start coughing up the plant or parts of the plant associated with that person, though it doesn't cause them any physical harm. Does the coughing-up-petals thing go away once the relationship is reciprocated or is it just a thing that Happens When You're In Love Sometimes At Random? Who knows. You decide. If they enter a mutual romantic relationship with someone, their partner's (or partners') plants or a part of their plants will appear beside their own, and will change depending on the state of the relationship or partner's physicality or emotions. If their relationship is going well, the plant may bloom, if it's going poorly it may wilt, etc, and same if the partner(s) are upset/sick/etc. If the relationship breaks off or is no longer reciprocated the secondary plant will disappear, and if it left a particularly strong impact on the individual, residual parts of the partner/partners' plant(s) may be left behind, such as leaves, seeds, or petals. It depends on the person/relationship if those remnants will ever go away or how long it may take.

"Plant compatibility" is totally a horoscope-type thing in this universe alongside stereotypes of types of plants, and that's where the "soulmate" concept comes in. It is up to discretion if it is actual soulmates or just coincidental, but in-universe there is an idea of "If you share an exact plant with somebody, you are soulmates." Again, re: horoscope thing, here it could totally just be a coincidental thing based on "If you share a plant that is meant to symbolize you, chances are you have similar personalities and so will get along." There may be people with the total opposite perspective - "Don't date someone with the same plant" because maybe having similar personalities means you'll totally clash. Those concepts probably co-exist in practicality. Lots of variety. Also totally up to customization if the plants have to be local to where the person's from or be from anywhere or how much you want to stretch the definition of "plant" or etc etc. Lots of fiddling options.

I do have a sideblog for it as a more generalized template - @petal-pressed. Since it's a template, it's meant to be applicable to any fandom and totally free to use, and I occasionally post prompts on that blog. And again, the template intentionally lots of room for fiddling and freedom.

Anyways the PJOification of all of this:

"What ships are this au" Whatever's funniest/most dramatic in the moment. Go wild. Make your own variations or whatever.

Everybody's plants: (subject to change)

Percy & Annabeth - Bluebells (They match) - Annabeth's on arm where she got stabbed, Percy on small of back.

Grover - False goat's beard, placement undecided

Piper - Anemone (plant not animal), placement undecided

Jason - Forget-me-nots, right forearm

Leo - Hydrangea, placement undecided

Hazel - Clover, possibly forearm

Frank - Undecided but Snapdragons maybe, possibly forearm

Reyna - Jonquil, possibly forearm

Nico - Dandelions, wrist

Will - Sunflowers, side of torso/back

Luke - Originally Lilacs on face, changes to Rhododendron and spreads to shoulder/armpit.

Thalia - Eastern White Pine, placement undecided

Calypso - Undecided but Hibiscus or Zinnia maybe, placement undecided

I have some other notes for other characters but theyre all very noncommittal

I made a lot of random moodboards for this au but since they were just for personal use I don't have the credits for the images and so will not post those. If people are interested I might take requests to make new ones though. They're quite fun for me to make.

And random doodles - The first one is an extremely old one that was just me fiddling with random designs + cameo Solangelo to show off how the plant tattoos might look

And then some more recent ones:

I usually do aro/ace Leo for these aus, so here's him pretending to cough up plants as if he had a crush ^

and some silly Jasico ^

Some other misc fun notes I had for random things:

"Is this canon-verse au or non-canon-verse?" you may be asking. The answer is. Depends. You decide. Again this is not a fully fledged singular au it's just me rotating a template in my brain and it happened to be formed around PJO initially.

Because Percy and Annabeth both have bluebells as their flower, when Percy disappears and loses his memory, both he and Annabeth can't tell if they have only their own flowers or the flowers of two people and it totally freaks them out.

Also because they share flowers, when Nico has his crush on Percy and is thus coughing up bluebells, people presume he has a crush on Annabeth because those are her flowers too. He's not having a great time.

One variant of the thoughts my friends and I brainstormed for Jason was that he and Reyna were dating before he disappeared, and when he lost his memory it also made Reyna's flowers disappear from his tattoo completely. It took longer for Jason's flowers to fade from Reyna's tattoo and she just got to watch Jason's flowers change depending on his state wherever he was until they disappeared too.

Nymphs are obviously pretty one-for-one with their plant. If they even have tattoos is up to you. Either way this does mean Lavinia is coughing up poison oak though so she's having a bit of a rough time. She thinks it's totally worth it though. The coughed-up plants don't really hurt you as bad as the actual plant might, if at all, so she's fine in general.

I had other thoughts too but i'm forgetting.

uhh anyways yeah i think that's about it. woo flower au.

#pjo #riordanverse #ask #spaceyaceylesbian #petalpressed #au #my art #ask to tag #yippee. this au is very fun to me #just cause you can mess around with a lot of stuff #i do have other doodles/designs of this au if anyone is curious to see those #but they're general random designs not pjo-specific #again this is basically me looking at both hanahaki and soulmate tattoo aus and going ''im going to take the fun parts of both of these''#''and just ditch the rest''#still plenty of angst potential if that's your jam but also way easier to keep it fluffy #also i only half-proofread this so if clarification or further detail is wanted on anything feel free to ask #i am always happy to talk petalpressed i think it's neat

where's that post about the rewards (having tattoo) requires the mortifying ordeal of being know (talking to tattoo artist)

#i hate this part i feel like a slug #sorry to bother you would you please consider lowing yourself to etch something permanently in my skin #also its going to be permanent so im also going to be neurotic about it but quietly because i dont want to Bother you #mylife #i am always so conflicted on this part i feel like i have to sell the tattoo artist on my idea and convince them to want to do it #but then i worry about not liking the design - it not matching my specifications - needing it to be perfect since it's permanent - etc #and i worry about my ability to assert my preference if there is something i want changed because ive struggled in the past

Pondering bottom surgery in the tags I mf guess

#I’ve been. thinking abt bottom surgery again after having accepted for a while that I would probably never get it #for context early on in my transition I was dead set on phallo but then T and my other surgeries satisfied me enough to not need it #+ for phallo I would have had to keep an arm or leg free of tattoos and I just did not want to wait on that #not considering it would probably be at least a decade. tattoos were and are more important #+ the more I started to enjoy using what I have I was like. it is simply not medically necessary anymore #like would I like to have a **** yes. do I need one to live a happy life no #being bi complicates things for me too bc it depends a little bit who I marry #don’t want to tailor my body to a specific relationship esp if it doesn’t last forever but it does make a difference #current partner is nonbinary and wants phallo so that does not make things simpler lol #I want a body that allows the most affirming possible relationship w the person I intend to marry #I also don’t want to end up hindering things w future partners should that not happen #anyway I say all this to say. I had never considered meta as an option bc I didn’t think it would do much for me #lot of effort and money and healing for not as drastic a change. wouldn’t solve my biggest bottom dysphoria issues #however. starting to think it could be the middle ground I’m looking for as a gnc/genderfluid person #it would be less surgeries. less complicated n expensive. less changes to my current anatomy #esp if I don’t do everything you Can do w meta. I could do like half of all that or less #I don’t wanna risk giving up the things I can do now without knowing if I’ll enjoy the new possibilities #but this could be a way to just kinda feel more affirmed without it changing my life all that much #I think just the act of undergoing bottom surgery would be affirming. like I’ve done Everything I’m a binary male thru and thru. transexual #and I wouldn’t have to keep wondering if I’ll do it someday or if I should #not that I can any time soon I’m uninsured. insurance prob wouldn’t even cover it #but just. the more I look into it and think abt it + the more serious my relationship gets the more I lean towards it #my partner talking increasingly abt wanting bottom surgery asap is influencing me too ngl not even in a jealousy way #just. I can’t deal w the possibility of a partners phallo fucking up my relationship w my body Again. I would need to know what I want #man. I can’t even go to therapy to talk thru it. on account of being uninsured #mine #txt #personal

Been bored and thinking about getting a second tattoo recently, decided to start practicing some ideas on my hand. First image was the initial thoughts I tried yesterday, second images are of one I just did on my hand a few minutes ago. In other news, I need a new red marker.

Obviously I need to scale it down a lot. Eh. And there's other glaring issues, such as like. Can I even get this done, what complications might arise, etc. But right now it's just a funky lil idea.
