birthday cake pt. ii
#today i baked a cake.#i've never once done it before but i felt like i knew every step#maybe it's the videos i've watched growing up#or maybe it's muscle memory that i've gained from a distant dream where i've learned how when i was nine years old#watching his eyes beginning to turn hazel as he watched me from the floor with a curious gaze in the sun.#(he looks a little funny; he's wearing a pink bib.)#i frost it with care in his favourite colour#adorned it with his favourite things#i bought him the star-shaped sprinkles that i remember from deep in my dreamt memory where i sat with him and watched him cry about laika.#he's eight and mourns what she could've been#but smiles up at me when i tell him that she could've been nain's dog in another universe#and the halls would be full of photos of her in technicolour as she grew older and older but happier still.#we have cake.#the sprinkles are arranged in constellations.#even in this universe i've come to memorise them all.#(orion. taurus. eridanus. vulpecula.)#i've turned twenty-one months ago#but i've made a birthday cake.#my sister asks why i have rockets and stars on it#but i don't know how to tell her i'm mourning a life that never could've been.#so i tell her about him.#a memory from a distant dream#where i ice rockets and arrange constellations on a cake every year.

happy birthday you weird little freak. it's finals season so i can't afford to make a full drawing for u rn but i can at least give you your favorite thing in the world
bonus drawing + og imgs under the cut
cannot believe that crucified!komaeda is the cuntiest i've ever drawn him. call it divine inspiration
#martzipan#nagito komaeda#hajime hinata#komahina#komaeda doesn't like sweets. so i gave him something savory in place of a cake <3#the first time i tried to draw these i started giggling too hard to actually get anything done#the second time i tried to draw these i had a realization mid-drawing that i'm getting an art degree#i'm gonna be a professional artist. i'm gonna make art for a living#and i'm using it for this. <3#also crucified!komaeda happened bc my friends and i were talking abt mbti types#and i found out komaeda's. and i learned he shares a personality type with some WILD figures. you should look it up he's an infj#jesus is one of them#and immediately they were like 'you should draw komaeda on the cross'#and i was like 'i've thought about it and you just made it necessary'#and then i made it. and it was beautiful#maybe i'll give komaeda an actual birthday drawing sometime after finals are over. but for now this is what he gets#i'm finally hyperfixed on dr in time for a kmda birthday and then bam. finals week. girl ur luck cycle is affecting ME too#anyways. these are the bestworst things i’ve ever drawn and maybe ever will draw#hinata ended up darker than how i actually headcanon him but it’s ok. i’d rather him be darker than lighter

(No Obligation Whatsoever but if you *want* to give me a birthday present my kofi is in the pinned post or you could always draw a kirby :> after all I started drawing him every day in the first place just cuz I think low key simple kirby drawings are fun and there should be more of them!)
#kirby#daily kirby#my art#digital#hal laboratory#nintendo#my wife bought me tasty cake and my partner made me tasty pasta#and they both got me presents too!#I haven't had presents to *unwrap* on my birthday in a long time#(I've still had presents most of the recent years but it's all just like the 'hey buy me this' 'here you go love you' type presents)#(and my wife has been working for the whole day on my birthday the past few years too :c )#(but today she was done at a reasonable time and got to hang out with me!)#(so was our other partner!)#(it was nice :> )#(for real tho zero obligation re giving me things for real)#(like money's kinda tight right now but it's not like an emergency or anything)#(mostly thanks to our partner)#(and my wife thinks she'll be employed again by the end of the month)#(so probably any money I get will either be saved for emergencies or spent on replacing 15 year old clothes)#(rather than like groceries or whatever)#(any kirby drawings I get will probably be gathered up on monday or s/t in like a special edition reply roundup)#(anyway I'll stop mumbling now <3 )#favorites

Yes, today is Star Wars Day, but it is also a far more important holiday...
It's my cats' seventh birthday!
So to celebrate them, I'll inflict pictures of them on you people!
Happy birthday, Pixel and Glitch! May there be many, MANY more!
#cats#my cats#i love my babies#I've even got them tattooed on me!#for their birthday i made them little 'cakes' out of tuna and shrimp and set up a cat toy subscription box for them#i only work to provide a better life for my cats and rabbit#the rabbit's name is Wascally Wabbit by the way#the bed Glitch is sitting in is actually HIS bed#Wascally was NOT happy about that

Today was a good day :)
#Today three strangers were kind to me in three different occasions. It was such a nice coincidence :)#I've been working on Akutagawa's birthday the entire week and today Akutagawa posts were all over my dash. I'm so happy!#I managed to do all the edits I had set up to and I'm glad :)#I dressed rigorously black and white and wore the black striped pants I bought because they reminded me of Beast Akutagawa's outfit#I did my nails black and red!!#My mother called me to congratulate on Akutagawa's birthday#I even baked a cake with a friend and they were so sweet /////#I'm so grateful they managed to make time for it even though they've been so busy and tired because of their job#More than everything I'm grateful they weren't weird about it#They found it a little silly but they never made fun of me. They helped me pick the cake.#And today they even told me that they looked up a video of the character to understand me better#Which TERRIFIES me because no way anyone could get a good impression of Akutagawa from a single video#But if we ignore that it was an unbelievably nice gesture :')#It's just such a foreign feeling because outside of my blog I NEVER talk about my hyperfixations irl.#Because when I used to when I was younger I was only met with scorn or mockery so ever since I started university I simply learnt not to?#And it's just so genuinely weird to talk with someone irl who wouldn't judge me for it–#and not really in the good way because part of me is still convinced that they *are* judging me for it.#Doesn't matter everything suggests the contrary. And I keep overthinking if I overshared about Akutagawa or if I said something dumb#But I'm trying it not to get to me. Today they've been nothing but nice through and through#Whatnot. The last months were very tough for some reason I'm just happy good things can still happen :)#I want to start the queue again now that I'm generally more free and done with Aktgw's birthday and everything.#I also have new exams the first days of April and the program is pretty heavy and wide. On top of following courses. I'll see what I can d#I'd like to start regularly posting again because I'm afraid if I don't I'll just sulk further in misery. We'll see.#Ah I need to catch up with the dash since I've basically not been on Tumblr for three days...#That's it just rambling. I hope everyone's days are nice too!!!#random rambles

my bisexual audacity has resulted in me making a double batch of ermine frosting (note: i have never made ermine frosting before) at 11:22 at night today
#technically i also made a vanilla cake and an orange custard today as well#i've made the exact cake before. i've also made custards from scratch but the orange is a nice twist#leave it to my best friend to not like chocolate cake and i have to go with something else for her birthday#shut up ange

Ok my phone's off but I need to remember to tell my boyfriend so Everyone gets to see On The Tumblr
This ice cream is so good actually I have so many ideas for things to use Old Bay in now fr. The cornmeal fucks with the texture too much for my liking but the flavor is So good. Like I'm definitely for suresies using Old Bay in whatever pie I end up making for Thanksgiving + I'm thinking I'll fold it into the whipped cream I think that would combine really well
#he made me like old bay tater tot ice cream for my birthday (party)#because I've never had old bay before (my mom is a wimp about foods)#it's really so good though I have so many plans to subject people to fr#like this would work so well in a spiced cake instead of the cinnamon and other spices normally there#I need to try a whiskey cake again but I think it'd be fun there as well#in pies (especially pumpkin/sweet potato) yum fr#apparently it goes well with caramel (which I totally believe the flavors would be so GOOD together) so probably a blondie bar with caramel#thank you fr for bringing this into my life

#small vent#its 4am#birthdays aren't so fun when you're by yourself#making the cupcakes out of the chocolate cake mix and leftover frosting#i made 24 cupcakes#myself#alone in my kitchen#watching my favorite lets players to keep my spirits up#I've been dreading it#because it feels lonely#and these past few weeks at work and home sucked#so i feel isolated#invisible#yeah...#happy birthday#to me#im going to sleep

sometimes a cake's so nice you gotta bake it twice - peanut butter chocolate cake 🎂
#erin bakes#no mini reeses around the edge this time cause my brother ate them all lmfao#the peanut butter drizzle is still tricky af the consistency is finicky af and I'll be honest#I'm so tired by the end of the day when I'm decorating this I just don't give as much of a fuck#I've been soooo busy today omg#but.... when I made this the first time for my brother's birthday I got really sick like immediately after#and I didn't really get to have any. just one lil piece. so. I wanted to make it again lol#and also try out some different swaps/techniques I'd read abt#anyway. my back is killing me now so. chill and eat cake time 😌

Thank you all for making this a truly wonderful day <3 I probably would have stayed mad through the day if I didn't have the internet mutuals to give me good wishes and lots of smiles and laughs along the way
#I woke up to my leftover cake gone and a mess left behind#my entire family went to birthday lunch without me#I've been really overwhelmed with family around these past few days#so much so that I had a sorta breakdown#but the love I get from y'all made it all okay#other stuff#razz's birthday
