Can you do oyster and caviar fankid?

So I actually finished doing this earlier today before my exam, this is Olympia Oyster Cookie

She’s also like, my 4th oldest currently unfinished request, so she is OLD, probably from like, March or April 2023 or something

So my idea for Olympia here is that she’s an amazing singer, one people in the Upper City would love to hear. Problem is, she’s seemingly an absolute diva and won’t perform unless you adhere to her almost impossible standards

However, it’s a completely different story in the Lower City. She performs constantly and at any old tavern that asks her. She’s also known to be quite the generous Cookie down there too

This is entirely intentional on her end. She has no real love for the Upper City and despises the corruption there, and so she chooses to act out in this way. She is also trying to work on bettering the conditions of the Lower City, but currently this is her main way of getting back at the upper crust. Perform just enough that they know she has talent, but make it an incredible pain for any of them who want to hear it. She’ll play the part of the insufferable diva if that’s what it takes

She also spent a good amount of her childhood going down to the Lower City with her dad and his crew, so she’s got a fondness for it

I think that’s it for character (at least as far as I remember), so let’s move on to design

So she’s based off olympia oysters. I don’t remember the exact reason why, but likely because it’s an oyster and it’s a dark color

Olympia oysters:

So I came up with her hair design like, last year so I don’t remember why it’s her hair. But I think it looks nice regardless

I think the dress and gloves look nice, I wanted her to look like a singer, but I admittedly didn’t really know what to do for the top. I’m also not really sure how it works, maybe I need to tweak it a bit

She originally had gold accents, but I switched it to silver because I thought it fit better with her color scheme. I did have her sash as a pop of color, and a different one from her parents too

Overall I think she turned out pretty well. Though I can’t say the same for that sketch of her, it looks rough, I tell you

Anyways yeah, I think that’s about it for this, hope you like her!

Oh yeah also, @amythecat2001, since you were one of the people who requested this ship

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

My baby daughter got her adorable puffin-print dress absolutely CAKED in mud crawling around the yard and my first thought was "oh no her beautiful dress"

And my second thought was "oh huh it really WOULD be easy to unconsciously steer her away from playing in the dirt. Unlike my son, whose outfits are usually some kind of solid dark easily washed pants plus a shirt that doesn't trail in the dirt like a dress does."

Anyway something something gender roles start getting shoved on kids from literal birth, but with a little time to think about things, YOU TOO can let your children of any gender absolutely destroy their clothes in the dirt pit they're digging in your garden
