#but I just haven't drawn much this year 😔

[kiaraalazulu]

some kisses

[clownowo]

been replaying the Portal series I think this is where its heading

[heartbeetz]

I always drew spαmtօn too short and I will always draw anton too tall. It balances out.

[factual-fantasy]

25 asks! Thank you! :}} 👹

I have it in the back of my mind, but I haven't actually made any steps in making more master posts.. 😔

ReBLOGGING is good! Its a feature of Tumblr and helps more people find my artwork! Very nice :))

RePOSTING is stealing my art and posting it on your own account. Giving you and only you all the credit. That's theft and no good!

I think I remember wanting my sona to be an object head of some kind. I think I doodled probably a dozen different ideas before I got frustrated and just scribbled my most recent attempt out.

But then it hit me. I doodled two little white eyes on the scribble and I knew I had found my sona XDD

@xxthedragonrebornxx

XD Thank you for remembering my boundaries and respecting them! :)) And THANK YOU FOR THE CUPCAKE!! :DDD

I haven't read it, but I've seen it blowing up all over tumblr. It must be pretty cool! :00

@milk-powrit

<XD I won't lie, Bill is a fantastic villain. I just "hate" him because Stanley is my favorite character and Bill put his family through hell 💀

Most of the team: "Aww 🥰💞💞"

Gloria: "WHO ARE YOU AND HOW ARE YOU HOLDING ALL OF US UP AT ONCE"

@pink088

<XD These past 2-3 days have just hammered me health wise, but I can at least say that I've been sleeping enough!

And thanks for the check in! I wish you the best :))

(Pokemon violet comic(?))

:DD Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it!! :)))

If I ever really go into those series I would :00 But I cant remember the Godziilla movies- plus that would be really hard to draw <XDD

There's so many sonic medias that i wouldn't know which one to go by- and I've seen playthroughs of Poppy playtime but it never really grabbed my interest.. <XD

I'll do my best to keep up with all that <XDD Thank you!

(Frank butterfly post)

Oh there's no need to worry about Frank! It might be hard to tell- but that was actually a moth! Frank had bags under his eyes because he was out late studying moths :))

<XD Well considering Homes intentions are intended to be unknown- you're free to imagine that! :D

@skywillow28022

ohmygosh the third movie is so good I actually cant watch it anymore lest I burst into tears 😭😭😭💞💞💞 10/10 WOULD recommend cars 3--

Anyways- I ADORE the cars franchise and absolutely would have drawn them more.. if cars weren't so hard to draw <XD Plus my favorite thing to draw is angsty cuddles and hugs and big droopy eyes and tears- that's kiiiind'a hard to pull off if your characters are cars-

Of course I could always draw them as humans like many other artists have.. but idk, it just doesn't feel the same you know? <XD

Also thank you! I hope you day goes well too! :))

@neo-metalscottic (Welcome home post(?)) (Octonauts eye study) (Oxem and Pepemijo comic)

AAAAA Thank you sop much! :DD I'm glad you've been liking my recent posts!

As for Oxem and Pepemijo, I cant show images because of the stupid 30 images limit-- But Pepemigo is based on/inspired by the Year of the dragon mask, and Oxem is based on the current season of Duets seasonal guide mask! :00

I imagine there are other dragons out there, like that other sky dragon that I made one time-- <XDD I don't really have any ideas for their powers or their story, but I had intended that Pepemijo at least knocked the krill out in self defense. Thankfully they wont be hunted by krill following that event- Oxem got them to a safe place and he knows that he should steer clear of krill territory in the future <XD

And of course! I'd love to see any critters that you've made! :DDD

@sussyhahag

uhg, always disappointing to see.. thank you for letting me know though 😔

*VERY LOUD CARTOON BROKEN HEART SOUND* (I LOVE THISSS)

<XD yup.

Also even though that disclaimer is there for FNAF and Octonauts, I still get people harassing me anyways!.... :')

@vesselofmanythings

AAAA THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! :DDD And I wish you luck on your slime rancher creative adventure!! :}}}

AAA THANK YOU SO MUCH!! :DDDD That means a lot!!! :))

@starsbee

This shouldn't have made me laugh as much as it did XDD

@wolfie-777

Oh no.... THAT MUST BE ME WELCOME HOME AU COMING BACK--

@anikakitty11

Somethin ain't right with that dog <XDD

@edelgeist (Referencing this post)

oooh :00 I wasn't aware of that- thank you for the info! Perhaps I should invest in a cooling pad <XD

I have not <:( But after googling it- I love the artstyle! :DD

[hekateinhell]

Since you reblogged the kinktober prompt list, do you have any ideas yet of what you wanna do? I’d love to hear if so!!

ugh no promises because I always get SO EXCITED and have the BEST INTENTIONS lol like I genuinely believe I'm going to do everything I say I'm going to do and then life happens (like I wanted to write so much for Vamptember like I did last year and then I got sick as hell for 2 weeks and spent this past week recovering and now it's over tomorrow so I feel like a failure 😦)

tbh of course I wish I could do all the prompts!!!! but I feel like I'm especially gravitating toward things that I haven't tried before because I love the challenge 😂

so far I'm really drawn to nipple play, fuck machine, mirror sex, sex pollen/aphrodisiac, and religious play

the last one mostly because I just wanna write human AU priest!lestat getting double penetrated on the altar by louis and armand, robes hiked up around his hips and everything!!

forgive me father, for I have sinned and I intend to do it again 😔

*if you don't already know, these prompts are for @vampirefest's kinktober event!

[gideongrovel]

wahh rambling

I havent drawn any like finished/completed art pieces of my ship with Varney since october :((( feel bad,,,,, :(((((( I want to draw something since our 2 year anniversary is coming up next month,,,,, it's been long enough that I'm probably gonna need to re-remember how how I draw him,,, 😔

i love that stinky husband of mine so much still,,,,, but when there's hardly any content for him other then reblogging the same few fanarts or my own posts it makes it hard to keep the momentum going :( and not many imagine post fit our dynamic since most ones people make are for mondertime f/os,,,,,,

ALSO its just hard for me to focus intensely on more then one f/o at a time,,,,, I use to rewatch all his scenes every night before I went to bed I haven't done that in forever 😭😭😭 tho I know I will get sucked in again badly if I do,,,,so I've been avoiding watch clips in general,,,,,net.flix tries to lure me in tho they only ever put him as the thumbnail pic for the show, I want to stay focused on Chop as my main f/o but I also wanna make sure Varney gets attention too tho ;;;w;;; my heart is torn

-

I know my f/o all love me regardless of who's getting majority of my attention,,,,, but at the same time I'm like 😢😢😢😢😢 I feel bad if I let my feelings linger on it too long

[thoselethalarts]

A couple of those ask things I'm curious about

2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw

12. Easiest part of body to draw

14. Any favorite motifs

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated

2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)?

You know, I haven't really thought about it much before 🤔 I feel like left vs right is about the same difficulty level for me to draw, both for 3/4 view and for profile view. Though 3/4 view is probably easier for me to draw of the perspectives. Front-facing is fun too to see a facial structure from a different perspective- literally!

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw?

WEAPONS! Dear god I am AWFUL at drawing weapons, all of them. Guns, knives, swords, bats, whips, spears, crossbows, morning stars, brass knuckles... I am absolutely dogshit at drawing weaponry without some kind of direct reference to trace over, which really sucks because I love weapons and think they're super cool! I have so much respect for people that design their own weapons, especially the ones that have to work with time period-specific limitations (lookin at you, Vinland Saga)

Also as a side note: fuck shoes. I can't draw shoes (or feet) for shit. Every time I draw a shoe I hope ya'll know that it took me at least 5 different references and a 3D model in order to make that happen.

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate?

Pixel artists and animation, ESPECIALLY animation. I simply do not have the patience for any of it, especially hand-drawn animation; I took a class for it in high school years ago and while I did just fine in the class it made me realize that I do NOT have the patience for the medium. 3D animation was a little easier for me but I'm still not skilled enough at timing and distortion to satisfy my creative image.

Also I have so much respect for pixel artists you wouldn't believe. I used to use Fireworks to fill out pixel art bases on DeviantART over a decade ago and while I did have fun with what I did and could still theoretically do it now, it'll never look as nice as I want it to look in my head 😔

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw?

Jackets and sweaters, but also I LOVE drawing things like scarves and capes that can billow in the wind and shift with the movement of the wearer, cuz it adds a whole new dimension of action to what could otherwise be a static pose!

Also also I'm a sucker for fishnets 😊

12. Easiest part of body to draw?

So fun fact about me- I actually LOVE to draw human anatomy. Whenever I draw a character I always start by fully drawing out the character's physical anatomy, and then I draw the clothes, hair, and faces on top of that! Here's some sketches from the Soul Archive to show my semi-chaotic workflow~

So I guess the answer is anything that isn't feet is easy for me to draw lol

14. Any favorite motifs?

Repeated phrases/symbols that initially appear to have no meaning but then the meaning becomes abundantly clear in hindsight as it's revealed throughout the story, or alternatively a phrase/symbol that has a specific meaning that's relevant only to the initial introduction of it which changes over time to mean something entirely new, symbolizing the growth and evolution of the character/identity that uses it, or the shift in tone/focus of the overall story.

EX: "It's eternity in there." and "Longer than you think." - Emesis Blue "One of us must die." - The Doomstar Requiem additionally: The Open Hand - Army of the Doomstar / SOS - Dethklok

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated?

Oh, EASY. My slipknot-inspired TWST piece I'm still incredibly proud of (even if I've redesigned Phobos since then)

[partynoobvanii]

Is there any more info about Glitchfriend we can know?

I'll try, I guess y'all really like them that much LMAO

-They like Cherry Soda.

-They weren't always a glitch.

-Glitchfriend is confirmed to be Pansexual.

-They haven't got a partner yet in Glitchy City, so they're single. (Virusfriend is coming for them 😭😭)

-Their faces are actually separate! (Red part on their face is distress, sadness, and anger. The Light Red part of their face is happiness, relief, and calm.)

-They're inspired by ENA! But more inspired by the Dream BBQ variation. (The White and Red faced ENA.)

-They were more inspired by the "webcore" aesthetic.

-They like to eat sprinkles :3

-Their hat actually isn't theirs.

-They have a problem with their hands, it would basically glitch out randomly and drop whatever they're holding. (It also stings a bit but they're used to it.)

-They had an Old/BETA Design, which is now Lost Media cause I can't find it :(

-Their hair changed A LOT every time I drew them without their hat, it was just hard to decide how their hair without the hat should look like.

-They're not good with kids sadly. They get too nervous and think they'll mess up. (Cause they're a glitch and think they're gonna drop something valuable like food cause of their hand glitching out)

-They do NOT replace Glitchy Red in the Glitchy City chapter. They're just a side character in the series to accompany Lullaby Drugfriend. (not to mention, Glitchy Red's role is already taken now.)

-Square shaped fingers, I've drawn it on them a lot cause I think it would fit their aesthetic.

-Canonically has heterochromia (Different eye colors, Purple and yellow)

Past Life

-Owned a hamster as a kid, it ended up dying really quick cause it ran into the vents and got lost for a couple of days and died out of starvation. (R.I.P Ari 😔)

-Their parents don't know what happened to them, and are still looking for Glitchfriend. (They have gone missing for years and their parents are still grieving.)

-Glitchfriend was born biologically as a male, but came out as Non-Binary later.

-Works as a pilot (Hence why they have goggles in their past appearance.)

[wave2tyun]

I'm here after writing a physical list of songs to reccomend!!😼 I'll start with my n.1 group, Stray Kids!! :D I started listening to them a bit over a year and a half ago but by now my life is consumed by them... 🙃

Here's my (long) list of slay songs! (Do note most of the songs I'm reccomending are very energetic because I'm more drawn to energetic songs, they have lots of songs that are calmer etc, so if you like different kinds of songs you're definitely going to be able to find loads!!)

Noeasy:

-Thunderous (the title track, INCREDIBLE music video‼️)

-Wolfgang (the furry song of the group just like Cat & Dog is for txt👍 their kingdom performance for this is incredible)

-Cheese (song for the haters, it's about cheese though?? Love the wordplay, they're really good at creative lyrics)

-DOMINO (ayy domino😎, we never got the mv for this😔💔)

-Silent Cry (I really love this one, super pretty and cool sounding!!)

-SSick (I'm saur ssick, another banger, I love the instrumental of this lots)

-Red Lights (duet between Hyunjin and Bang Chan, the n.1 sexy song of the group)

ODDINARY:

-Charmer (SUPER banger, the instrumental is crazy good!)

-Venom (I personally think this one is underrated, they once perfirmed this with like a giant spider??? idek anymore)

-Lonely St. (just another great ass song imo💞)

-Muddy water (half the group is in this one and there's another song with the rest, I just happen to like the style of this one better, very different to most of their songs imo)

Maxident:

-Super Board (one of my absolute favorite skz songs of all time, nyoom!! cool music video👍)

-Chill (a sadder song?? on my reccomendation list?? Han Jisung loml writes the best sad songs argue with the wall)

-Taste (another sexy song, oh my god this one is crazy😵)

-Don't stop (a cute almost anime opening sounding duet with the 2 youngest, CUTE!!)

-Case 143 (silly title love song, I reccomend watching all the mvs you can find tbh, they're always really good!!)

In Life:

-Back Door (underappreciated!!!😠 slept on, why didn't people love this more, incredible choreography too!! deserves so much more)

-The Tortoise and the Hare (ages ago people had theories 3racha (the producers of the group) were drunk while making this, I think people just weren't used to songs that were 'different', honestly SUPER cool)

5-star:

-Super Bowl (cooking up a storm peace of cake‼️ this one's in english, first skz album i ever ordered btw)

-ITEM (Banger!!!!! Big Reccomend!! Cool choreography)

-Get Lit (the english translation of the korean title is "let's die" don't let that fool you though, this is a super cool song, my favorite on the album)

-Youtiful (song in english, it's about how beatiful stay (their fandom) is to them, my lovely skz😭)

Rockstar:

-Lalalala (title track of their newest album, super banger, just feel the rock!!)

-Megaverse (welcome to the stray kids hot megaverse, once again... really Really good!!)

-Comflex (my favorite from this album, you can really tell i like more energetic "quick" songs by looking at all my favorites, huh? 😅)

Other:

-God's Menu (pretty much everyone knows this one, the one that blew them up, still incredible after all these years)

-Circus (a song about the circus, goofy and silly but still super good? Love this one💞)

-Christmas EveL (christmas song? similar to Circus, goofy but unnecessarily good... Feliz Navidad Feliz Navidad, I can feel the evil coming but Felix never bad😎)

Lmao anyway that was my list, watch mvs if you're interested, I'll do Ateez later!!

Also I haven't listened to a lot of earlier music yet so there's definitely lots of other good songs that are just waiting to be discovered😁 Hope you enjoy Alex dear💞💞 sorry it's so long...

-🐾

[alphonseelriic]

Happy almost Christmas Sofia!! Gosh the days go by so fast! I can't believe it's almost here. Probably my last anon msg before reveals 😉 but feel free to continue talking to me after if you want to, it's been lovely to be your Santa!

Oh! I hope your time at the beach has been eveything you wanted? ☺️ 

Still wanting all of the food you talk highly of haha ❤. Would be really cool to visit south america one day and try some of these authentically! Will keep my eyes out to see if there's any around tho heh. 

And wow your mum is a professional baker! You must be used to the best goods then!! 😵 She must be so flattered you love her pannetone best too. And that's fair about not being into the kitchen lol but good to know you're capable there. ^^ I like cooking/baking but I'm not a fan of the cleaning that comes with it 😆 and these days I'm so tired, it sometimes feels like a lot of work to make a meal beyond basics lol. But when I'm in the mood I really like experiment with new recipes and decorating baked goods is always fun! Do you have a "go-to" meal you cook? 

Oh please do try duck! Theres so many ways to eat it...all delicious ha. Though it has a gamey taste that some people don't like, so I wonder if you prefer those or not too? 👀 Do you like lamb/goat flavors? (Since that has an even more gamey taste haha). Ooo tteokbokki is so good, a food fair sounds fun!  Alsjdkkdd honestly I'm so drawn to hot cocoa during the winter haha so totally valid and cappuccino too!! Yum!! Fresh fruit juices, so refreshing 😍. I love mango smoothies.

Oh no, what did you get to read instead in high school? We had a list of authors and books we could pick from to read during Lit class in high school that was a lot of classics including Jane Austen! It's been so long though, I honestly don't remember much. Do you like any of the jane austen movies too? 

Omg I know the struggle to find the fics that fit what you want to see from your favs lol, it's esp. hard in smaller fandoms or not as popular ships. What kind of ships are you into? 👀 And what kind of fics draw you in most? 

The struggle not to rewatch haikyuu all the time, yes!! 😆 Because it gives so much serotonin lol, but I know if it wait longer and don't remember everything, it'll be better haha. Speaking of MOB, ugh I haven't seen the last episode yet but I'm already sad it's over 😭 but deep in the feels. I'm particularly in love with "exist" ost this time. 🥲

Totally get what your saying and thanks for that bits of information! All the examples you linked are so pleasing to look at 😊 and Mazusu is easily one of my fav editors too. ❤ I can't wait to also see what you'll edit for this event! And hope you'll enjoy my lil gift to you! 🤧 Also thank you for your work with animanga creators, agree their challenges are a lot of fun 😄.

Be back very soon and happiest of holidays to you! ❤💚

- Animanga 🎅 

Omg happy Christmas Eve, secret santa ❤️ yessss!! I'm so excited to find out who you are >:) Awww thank you sm! I'm very glad to have had such a wonderful santa this year :')

Yeah, my time at the beach was v nice! We arrived back home yesterday afternoon. We didn't do much but that's actually what I wanted hahahah I was just so tired.

That's so sweet, I would love it if you visit 🥹 this continent may not be most people's first option for a vacation but it's truly beautiful and has such touristic potential!!

Ohh yes my mom bakes a lot of stuff! It's mostly for orders and we are forbidden from eating anything tho, but she does also bake for us occasionally ^^ I would be lying if I said she wasn't partially responsible for my sweet tooth...

Oh the cleaning, what a struggle LMAO it does indeed suck when you prepare a rather small thing but it leaves a lot of dirty dishes behind 😔 experimenting is really fun indeed!! I guess a meal I tend to "cook" often are different kinds of salads made with whatever is on the fridge, as they're so easy to make! I also like frying eggs and eating them with leftover rice if there's any. Grilled cheese sandwiches are also a classic. Maybe this is cheating bc nothing is actually made out of scratch, but oh well :p

I tend to like stuff with strong flavors so I think I may like duck! I don't remember the last time I ate lamb but I do remember liking it. The food fair was really fun indeed 💕 had a great time even if the weather was terrible that day. Oh I forgot about smoothies, I really like them too! Same with milkshakes.

I honestly don't remember much about what I had to read in high school 🤔 I remember reading Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and The Catcher in the Rye. Also a few books and short tales from Latin American authors. Unfortunately we couldn't choose for ourselves, the teacher decided for us :( but I liked most of what I read thankfully!

Yeah I loooove the pride and prejudice movie from 2005! I also want to watch the 1995 miniseries but I haven't had the time yet. I want to watch the Sense and sensibility movie too after I finish the book to see how faithful it is heheh

Tbh when it comes to ships I tend to like the popular (or canon) choices, like EdWin, TwiYor, RinShi, HanaNene, SasaMiya etc. But for media that has a big cast and doesn't focus on romance (like Haikyuu or Genshin) I tend to multiship and I like less common ships too!! I admit I'm not very creative for finding new ships so usually I end up drawn in by that one artists that is obsessed with a rarepair but has a really cute art style 😅 I'm trying to think about some examples but my mind is blank rn 🤔 maybe this is my sign to go back and consume more hq fanart like I did back in the day lol

Ohh I still haven't watched the last episode either, but idk, it's hard to say goodbye to this series 😭 my excuse is that I usually wait to watch it with my partner but we haven't had the opportunity to watch it together yet. I can't delay it for much longer tho or the entire episode will be spoiled for me sooner or later hahaha

Oww I'm glad my examples were useful for you!! Yeah masuzu's stuff is simply wonderful :') I'll upload my gift as soon as I finish answering this ask so you'll get to see it very soon 😈 I'm 100% sure I'll love what you made for me!! I can't wait to see it 🙈 aww thanks!! I still feel I don't do much despite being a mod but I want to have a more active rol from now on, my friend Roh had such a good idea when she thought about making this network, it's been an awesome experience so far and it reignited my love for this community ❤️❤️❤️ this event was super super fun!!

The happiest holidays to you too 💕 I hope you have a magical time alongside whoever you celebrate with!! Have fun tonight and eat a lot of delicious food ❣️ thank you so much again for being such a great santa! couldn't have asked for more ;)

[averaillisa]

Part of me is sad that nobody asked for Aveline (😔) but all of the requests turned out adorable 💕

Have to admit that the smoll Xiao is probably one of my favs just because he tiny 🤲

asfkgldfh thanks so much!! °(°ˊДˋ°) °

oo to be fair I haven't drawn aveline in like, more than a year I think?? but here's a quick sketch as thanks!! ><

[toasterdrake]

ok, y'all here on tumblr haven't heard about this before but i made an encanto oc. and i wrote something for him :)

his name is Adelio Santiago, he's Italian-Colombian, 16, love interest of Mirabel

unless i write something else for him (which is very likely) this will probably be the first and last time you hear about him

i've drawn him plenty of times but nothing quite captures him like this sketch i made during class 😔

fic below:

Becoming friends with Adelio had been both a blessing and a curse. The curse, disguised as gentle words and flirtatious comments, had come into effect when Mirabel fell in love with her best friend. Only to watch him make his way through partner after painful partner. He always had a knack for choosing people least suited to him. Which were, of course, anyone that was not Mirabel. (Hey, she’s allowed to be selfish sometimes!)

First, when they were twelve, was Josefina. A brat of a girl, her attitude as domineering as her freakish height. Their relationship had lasted barely a month, ending in a horrific explosion from Josefina, claiming that Adelio hadn't been spending enough time with her. Even then, when Adelio was a friend and nothing different, part of Mirabel had still been grateful despite the anguish Adelio suffered. Josefina had hurt her friend. Mirabel had walked Adelio home every night for a month afterwards, glaring at Josefina when she tried stalking them back to Marco’s house outside the safety of the village. Mirabel would protect her friend.

Other partners had passed by in blurs of meaningless weeks, joy and sadness flowing in then swiftly out through Adelio's life. Somewhere along the way, Adelio did what he always did, and Mirabel saw him in a new light.

Then when they were fourteen: Sebastian. A dark-skinned boy, nice enough but a little brash. Adelio's longest relationship to date: over half a year. Everything had been perfect - for the happy couple, anyway - until a late November day. Adelio’s fifteenth birthday, in fact. The 25th. Mirabel had pulled on Sebastian’s braids so hard his beads went flying across the street, one ripping through Pepa’s beautiful new embroidery design. Sebastian’s hair had quickly frizzed up in the following rainstorm. 

Since that day, Adelio had sworn off dating, sure that he would dedicate himself to an aromantic life like his older and more worldly cousin Marco. For all Mirabel tried to accept this - and by God, she tried - this development was heartbreaking. Even more so than the constant dating. Because now, she had no chance. Now, there was no hope that he would finally see her differently. Now, Mirabel had to contend with her own suitors.

And Adelio did not like that.

With every hopeful approach, he did his best to kill her. Kill her with possessive touches, wordless glares, special treatments. He wouldn’t let anyone even consider pursuing a relationship with Mirabel. 

Eventually, people just assumed they were a secret. As much as the two denied it, both despised every valid attempt. Mirabel and Adelio were always together, never apart, never something different than what they’d always been.

Until a special spring day. Mirabel’s fifteenth, ironically. Ese bastardo (that bastard), Sebastian, showed his face again. This time for Mirabel. If he couldn’t have one of a pair tied at the hip, he’d have the other. 

Or so he thought - Adelio was quick to change his mind.

Adelio’s flaming torches danced, trails of heat and fire painting the air, recounting stories of wild animals to the gathered crowd. The spokes woosh, woosh, wooshed as Adelio twirled zealously, slender fingers nimbly spinning the torches in great arcs. The rapid pounding of tamboras reverberated around his head, replacing his heartbeat. 

Sebastian’s arm crept around Mirabel’s waist. She tried to shift away, but Sebastian applied an insistent pressure, teasing her closer to him. Mirabel's breathing picked up as he dug his fingers into her hip roughly. She winced as he squeezed hard enough to bruise the skin there. 

He stepped fully behind her, his other hand on her shoulder pulling her into his chest. Mirabel felt her control slipping away. She was helpless at the angle he'd enforced - any attempt to flee would cause her to lose her balance and fall into him instead. Her chest heaved in panic, a faint ringing persisting in her ears.

Then Adelio's fire wooshed safely over Mirabel's head. The flames swelled too close to Sebastian's face. He flinched away from the heat. Mirabel took the given opportunity to stomp on his foot. Sebastian's instinctive response was to relinquish his hold on her, allowing her to disappear into the crowd.

Sebastian tried to pursue her, intent on stopping her before she reached the safety of her family.

Adelio interrupted his progress.

Adelio discarded one flaming spoke with a strong gust of breath, twirling the other to create a fiery shield. "No further," he hissed, blocking Sebastian's path.

Sebastian, proving his stupidity, tried to shove his way past. Adelio slammed the spoke across his dominant arm. Sebastian screamed as the hairs on his arm lit aflame.

"How about Casita and I help you with that!" Adelio growled, tossing the torch to the floor.

He grabbed Sebastian's face, fingers digging into his temples, and shoved him down towards the ground. Casita scooted over a trough of water just in time to catch him. Sebastian, balance lost, plunged headfirst into the icy water. Adelio let go while he spluttered, fighting to the surface, limbs flailing. The trough was shallow, the water sloshing about in wild waves that spilled over the lip onto the tiles.

People rushed forward to help Sebastian free. He stood supported by two villagers, soaking wet and shivering. He snarled at Adelio. Adelio raised his chin defiantly, eyes sharp as daggers.

"Eres un bastardo. Manténgase alejado de ella." (you are a bastard. stay away from her)

Sebastian's response was to spit on the ground before him. Adelio grimaced, but let him be led away without further grievance.

Mirabel, protected by the huddle of her family, didn't see either boy for a while after.

I have been distracted by other things, but don't think I'm not disappointed in the lack of Greta content (and Greta in OT4/polycule content). I see I'll have to attempt making some of my own 😤😤 (as in art cause that's my greatest fan content contribution in general... which is sad... cause art block + other priorities + other shit)

Edit: other shit mainly being 1. The massive amount of stuff I gotta read for uni, 2. The regular procrastination + how to start and finish a WIP 😔 I have ideas tho and 3. .... We're soon gonna pass a whole year of me having constantly painful hands and arms :D which means I've barely drawn cause I hoped there... Hoped there was hope for these hands :)))

Edit June 2022: AHAHAH. Fibromyalgia. Anyway! I do keep getting notes on this post and I do still have a lot of ideas! (a lot of ideas besides castlevania too) but I haven't really gotten much of anywhere 😔 obv hoping to get more done during the summer/next year when I've got more time. I HAVE however, just recently, sketched out an idea for the 4 of them that I think I'm gonna be able to do 👀 anyway, if people wanna get tagged, tell me in the notes! I'll be over at @noliaert when I post art

[amarillokidding]

(I'm just gonna post it by itself but it was an ask by my friend Vojta about what books I like!!!)

***

Thank you for the question :D

To be warned, I don't read as much as I used to BUT I have started getting back into it since this past year.

For starters my favorite types of books and genres are adult and contemporary dealing with family dynamics. I love books about families and either how messed up stuff is and working it out or healing from it. When I say adult I mean just dealing with older characters as opposed to teenagers which young adult is abundant with. Other genres I like are high fantasy with like kingdoms and magic colleges and stuff. Its all bc of elder scrolls I guess🙄 I'm obsessed with like, ''''organizations'''' and how each person fits into its place and how characters work together in different ways. Waaahh😭😭😭 also a fan of coming of age but in a specific way I don't know how to describe. Its like, you're growing up and seeing things the way they really happened and you understand now. Its like everything is different but its still the same.

My favorite book is Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen. I don't like mentioning it that much bc she has a sort of "reputation" for ya formulaic cishet books and yea I agree (sort of) but its the first book from her I read and therefore it was new to me. Its getting a Netflix film and its in post production rn (I'm keeping up with it on instagram by following the actors and director). Its about a girl named Auden, its the summer before college and she stays with her dad and his new family in a beach town for the summer and she meets this guy called Eli and bc they both dont sleep at night and she's never done a lot of stuff kids have done so he decides to help her experience her life for the first time. I'm obsessed with this book, Auden and Eli both have like traumas and stuff in their past that theyre both dealing with and it feels realistic to me on how their relationship evolves as opposed to just falling in love suddenly. The story isn't quite a romance as the description and everyone says. Theres a love interest but the story deals more heavily with Auden's family as her mom is super condescending and judgemental and her dad barely cares about her. Literally almost all scenes with Audens mom have me like:

Its just my favorite book ive drawn fanart for it before and even recently its that I just haven't posted it for no reason probably bc I'm insane. My audio tag is the shortened form "aud" as a reference to her actually lol. I definitely think of Auden as a comfort character and I see a lot of myself in her.

Another book I loved was "We Were Liars" by E. Lockhart. This is a 'tiktok phenomenon' apparently lmao. Its about a girl called Cadence and two summers ago she was in an accident on her grandfathers ISLAND where her family spends the summer every year and now two years later she doesn't remember what even happened to her and everybody refuses to speak about it. Cadence spends the summer with her cousins and friend and she slowly starts remembering what happened that summer. I thought the twist was awesome and spine-chilling and I'm obsessed with the fact that the author made like, a family tree and a map for the island. I thought that was so cool bc samesies I do the same with my characters. Based on reviews for this book, it really is a hit or miss depending on the person. So many ppl hate this book bc of the twist and find the story stupid bc its about rich white ppl going through stuff but like 😔👉👈 I still like it....

Some more books I love are "Waiting for Normal" by Leslie Conner and "This One Summer" by Mariko and Jillian Tamaki (graphic novel) and "Flipped" by Wendelin Van Draanen all which also follow a similar theme in family stuff and include summer in some way. I also love graphic novels, 'this one summer' is definitely my fave one. Flipped is my best example of coming of age that I love and it has a film adaption I adore as well and has become a comfort movie.

Rn im reading Lost Gods by Brom, its pretty heavy and long and im just at the beginning so I don't know if I like it yet but I like the way the author writes so far.

So far we have like dysfunctional family, summer setting, trauma, and healing from the past as major things I enjoyed in these stories.😔

I dont have a goodreads or another book website I just put book links saved to my bookmarks and make lists in a binder about which books seem interesting. I was thinking of making an account but probably not on goodreads as I wanna move away from Amazon stuff but idk yet where. I used to have shelfari before it got discontinued/merged to goodreads back in middle school but I don't really remember if that's still active or not or what books I even had there. When I make an account I will let you know about it :D

So disclaimer again I do read and watch and play almost anything and I'm not always the best judge of stuff, sometimes I like things that are bad or poorly executed so idk if you'd end up enjoying the same things in the same way I do waaah😭.
