Been enjoying EoW so far!!
Redraw of this:
#loz#loz eow#the legend of zelda#echoes of wisdom#zelda#tri#josh art tag#i already changed up my zelda design lol#so i might post the ref sheet once i get Link's part done#anyway EoW is fun so far!#non spoilery thoughts are its a nice game but unfortunately the combat really isnt for me 😔#but thats like my biggest complaint#and im not even that upset about it cuz i expected that i probably wasnt going to like it 🤷#otherwise my only other complaints are small things#like the way you scroll thru echoes being the botw/totk way cuz like bro the more echoes u get the worse that menu gets#and also i couldnt find a way to lower the bg music?? like domt games usually have settings where u cam change that#if eow does have that i havent found it#its only an issue when i wear headphones. with headphones on the lowest volume setting is still too loud 😭#but yeah mostly small stuff complaint-wise#i would share stuff i like about it but i dont wanna give spoilers lol

oh everyone and their DISCLAIMERS about how “lokius will never be canon because disney and marvel are awful, but”........ well I have nothing to lose so. fuck disclaimers! this is my idea of fun! what if it CAN and WILL be canon, huh? what if the story is gonna go where it seems to be headed. what if I say they’re going to kiss on international streaming television. who’s gonna stop me
#I was in the tag on here again so. midnight shitpost time#lokius#but for real the disclaimers are like.... idk#are there Assigned Queerbaiting cops???? or are we policing each other#before anyone takes this too seriously yes I get it’s about ‘hopes’ and keeping fervor down and whatever#but the pendulum swing is just. tiring#to the extent that it has swung#sorry this is not articulate unlike my tweets on this topic semi recently#I will not let the corporations steal my joy preemptively or disappoint me preemptively. if they’re going to I’ll cross that bridge later#otherwise I find it far more exciting and entertaining to presume we live in a world where we get nice things#let me reach for the stars. because by God one day we WILL hit them#also per usual: abolish the nonsense word queerbaiting. Thank you and goodnight#PS I am not actually mad at fans protecting themselves and their emotions. I get the baseline reason. I am annoyed by The Situation#and with the use of the word ‘queerbaiting’ it all rooted in a fundamentally stupid or incorrect or shifting premise#chars loki posts

Biggest folley of Motley and why it got so difficult for me to write was because I kept getting so caught up on trying to represent every aspect of their stories all at once anytime there were on screen, when really I need to remember that they are in fact Just Little Guys
#aaah. the difficulty of writing ocs youve had since middle school#to me they are at the end of their story. but to you ..... they are just random characters by a stranger on tha internet#i need to break them down to their core essentials again ..... work backwards#first few chapters are gonna get some minor edits to the art and dialogue#but i have a clearer view of what the next few chapters will be#glad i paused for a few weeks to work on far out (which is also looking super good. i love jane and galactica. theyre so funny)#its nice to make new characters fron scratch#the first few motley chapters are gonna get punched up and future ones will be overall funnier#kept trying to make it serious but it needs to be funny. otherwise this shit is gonna get depressing real quick lol

So i started eldermourne finally.. it's great i love it honestly, soni did a charakter design lineup because that's what i always do.
#eldermourne#fia boginya#zirk vervain#henry hogfish#bukwar#really did not think that was how it was spelled while i listened i thought it was bookwar or something#tho i thought hardwon was hardone for a while#my art#naddpod#naddpod eldermourne#i think bukwar should look like stressed brian murphy in book form and i should not be told otherwise#i love them very much and i tried to get a nice color pallet so they are all distinct but also pull from each others colors#i dont think that's how you hold a cigar but oh well#zirk is my favorite so far tho im just a sucker for caldwell pcs tho the others are great to and i adore them already#im on episode 7 rn

okay so ages ago on the Bird Hellsite I saw someone make a coat entirely out of worm on a strings so now we have that incredibly cursed mental image right. My question to you is who in the TTA cast would be most likely to wear that thing and why is it Steve?
Oh, I met someone who did that a few years ago! Might have been the same person tbh.
I think a number of the minor characters would happily wear it, but the one most likely to make it would be Ash from the ghost hunting arc. Steve would wear it too, but Adam could make it work.
I had a grudge for years against worm on a string though... It was 2014. Flying across the country with my art class for the final judging of a competition. New York City, baby. Every day was constant activity; always going to a different event, a different activity, a different project...
And the stage was set: A small budget for the ILNY tourist store, two exhausted teenagers, and a misleading ad. The sound was off, and without captions we were left to assume... And we believed if the worms got wet, they would squirm. It made sense why they were $20 with technology like that.
Me and my best friend bought the worm on a string. We named him... Hal. It was all we talked about that day, the anticipation of getting back to the hotel.
Finally we get to our room. I was more excited about this than about being in the top 5 for a contest with a $50,000 prize. We opened the package, deterred by none of the signs, confirmation bias in full force... What's this string? Oh, it must be so they don't squirm away and get lost!
Fools.
Two fools standing over the bathroom sink, Hal in ones hands, and the other turning on the faucet. Nothing. A gentle shake of the lifeless soggy body. Still nothing.
And then the dawning realization: The worm was never gonna squirm around. We were duped.
How could we let that go... For years, I didn't.
I've since developed a fondness. It was never Hal's fault. We were exhausted, not thinking straight, and we blamed him for our own failure. I can only try to make amends... But I truly believe Hal never held resentment in his fuzzy blue heart.
Anyways we got second place and then the next year we won but that's less important.
#asks#whosamawhatsit#always looking for an excuse to tell a silly story lmfao#the competition was for vans. like the shoe company#we made four pairs of shoes into art basically! themed and stuff#hard to explain lol#the second year we did it we actually swept and won 75k for our art department#which was great cause otherwise it for real would have been shut down#we got first which was 50k#and then we also won the skate deck secondary competition for 15k#AND we won the 'local flavor' sub judgement of the top 5#which was 10k. AND!!!!!!!#the shoe i made was made into an actual vans shoe that you could buy for a year#i have a pair of course haha. never worn them duh but#cool competition! super glad i got to do that.#uh. anyways HAHAHHAAH just using this ask as an excuse to tell a story from my life#10 years ago... wow.#ive been having a hard time about my art and it's kind of nice to dwell on this a moment#and remember how far ive come. how lovely to have lived so much and still have so much more to go#enjoy the story lol sorry#NO IM NOT#its a good story. youre WELCOME!!!

my notifs recently got me thinking about the very random concept of "what if there is a second, secret CHB. directly below normal CHB." and i ended up brainstorming it in the discord.
context for how this originated: one was just a random notif on my post talking about the tunnels under the Hephaestus cabin, and the other was some tags from @drksanctuary on my fake readriordan article mentioning the idea of a chthonic demigod camp.
so. my brilliant (read: "smashing my 2 brain cells together") idea: the elaborate and seemingly infinite tunnels under cabin 9 are remnants of an abandoned underground CHB that exists directly underneath camp. It's basically just normal CHB except in a big cave system, probably connected to the labyrinth somewhere and has the separate tunnels, and instead of the Olympian cabins it has chthonic cabins. there's probably also some infernal nymphs and etc down there too. since all chthonic demigods can learn to shadow-travel they probably used that to get down there, and a lot of chthonic demigods probably have geokinesis just by nature, ergo the tunnels (for when they don't want to shadow-travel, or can't).
in brainstorming with the discord we decided it could be cool if some of the cabins lined up with the above-ground cabins, either for thematic purposes or associations or whatever. Like there's maybe a Hermes and maybe Poseidon cabin in the chthonic CHB too that just link to the above-ground ones, but also like Persephone cabin lines up to Demeter cabin because of course it does. and maybe Hecate cabin lines up to Cabin 8 cause Artemis is sometimes 1/3rd of Hecate. Maybe Angelos cabin is beneath Cabin 1, and Zagreus cabin is beneath Cabin 12. Things like that.
The other ones i thought of were either Hypnos or Thanatos cabin lines up with Apollo, because twins, and the other is just right beside it (because twins). And Charon's cabin is beneath Cabin 9, ergo why the tunnel system connects to it (because Charon. Ferryman. Surface access. It makes sense in my brain).
#pjo#riordanverse#headcanon#headcanons#au#< go figure which you wanna classify it as#this is entirely silly musing but it actually kind of works out nicely cause there's far fewer chthonic deities#than there are technical-olympians#so honestly you could get away with having the secondary chb only having a few extra cabins compared to the 12 usual cabins#it definitely wouldnt be any more than the 20 cabins it has by TOA#also for silly thematic reasons i do think itd be funny if despite everything cabin 13 is still inexplicably cabin 13 in underground chb#like. it shouldn't be. that doesnt make sense. but it is. what's the numbering system for the other cabins? who knows#negative numbers would be interesting. cause theyre underground#i do already have the hc of there being a secret extra cabin aboveground in chb nicknamed ''Cabin 0/Zero''#that's a little ways into the woods and kinda run-down cause it goes unused and basically why it exists is because#the ''12 olympians'' is actually inconsistent throughout ancient greece so there's a non-zero chance they could have a demigod show up#whose parent *is* technically one of the 12 olympians but they dont have a cabin for them - like Enodia. ergo: spare cabin#anyways all this musing is intentionally very silly#i just think itd be funny for chb to find out there is a second. more goth chb that is otherwise identical#literally directly below them. for no reason.#''why'd they made a second chb directly below the first one?'' ''idk underworld/chthonic reference i guess''

when someone in ur circle goes to spontaneously pick up an 8yo cavalier a day's drive away with no info other than 'its free' and 'retired from breeding' and also 'they had a lot of dogs and couldn't keep them all' and you think hooooo boy let's hope for a miracle. but 3 weeks later you hear the dog has possession issues, almost no teeth left, a heart murmur, and an itch they were told could be allergies but vet thinks is neurological and well. there weren't any miracles to be had i guess.
#phantom itch is a common sign of sm/cm and they're having x-rays to get an idea of the heart condition#hopefully it's managable - its a nice dog otherwise as far as anyone can tell#but if things turn out to be how it looks theyre considering euthanasia which. i think. in that case. i would as well.#one problem is that the person hasnt signed over the dog yet so they have no access to any information and legally its a tough spot#its a real shame for everyone involved if it turns out being packed up and driven 9hrs upcountry and getting euthanized#is what it takes for a dog to not suffer anymore#but sometimes thats what welfare looks like.

Empty grave scrapbook is coming along folks 🫡 I estimate being done by next Friday but potentially as early as this Sunday depending on how my weekend goes. I’m like kinda sad to be getting to the end of this fanart series 🥲
I may do a post-canon scrapbook that’s more silly and headcanon-y in nature if I can make something I like. I’ve got like a few concepts going but I haven’t gotten it fully formed yet yaknow? Lemme know if a post canon scrapbook is something you would want to see tho and I’ll do it
If nothing else, there is one page that I decided to cut from TEG scrapbook bc it didn’t fit story wise but I still really love, so I will post that one after the TEG one is posted even if I don’t make a post-canon scrapbook.
#thanks for all the support I have gotten so far#otherwise my adhd would have tapped out on TWS scrapbook#every nice comment is like a shot of dopamine to my brain

Is there anything better than an evening thunderstorm? When you're all tucked in bed with book and cats and it's just warm enough for the window to be cracked open to hear the rain come down?
#thunderstorms#i think we're getting all of October's average rainfall and working on November's too#it stopped raining for a whole 15 min this afternoon#otherwise it's been steadily raining for a solid 24 hours now but not too heavily#just nice and soaking#maybe 3 inches so far#all my rainbarrels are full again at a time when i'd usually be emptying them for the season#but i'm still harvesting veggies and it hasn't been cool enough (except for 2 days of frost) to bring the plants in for the winter#my freaking azalea bushes are blooming again they are so confused#i might actually get some sweet potatoes despite not getting them in the ground until the end of July#i got bit by a mosquito yesterday#they were gone briefly after the frost but have made a comeback#basically the turning of the seasons have been delayed a solid month#which is why i'm enjoying a thunderstorm in November

If i had a nickel every time i watched an anime where Shun'ichi Toki voiced a character and sung either the opening or ending song for it, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but interesting that it happened twice
#prince's talk tag#first it was midnight occult civil servants and now seventh time loop#im sure this has happened in other animes but these are the only two ive seen so far where it happens#ive actually wanted to watch the latter for a while now bc 1) it's a time loop tho while the heroine has looped 7 times now#the story takes place only in the 7th loop we only hear about her other loops when its important to the story#like how she learned to trade and make medicine or lockpick#2) i did hear Toki played the love interest's retainer so i get to hear hos voice quite a bit#3) bc they use blue for black hair in this anime and the heroine had pink hair#i was pretending this was a kaito and luka au of sorts when i only knew the anime from gifs#but when i started watching and the opening theme started playing i was like '!!!!!!! oh!!!!!!!!!!'#and then i remembered seeing the song on his YouTube channel bc im subscribed but didnt know it was for this anime#its a nice song i like it#if there are other animes like this where he does a song and a character lmk i love Shunichi Toki#yes it is partially bc he voices rui but i thought he had a nice voice before then#bc i liked his performance in midnight occult (he really was the highlight of that anime its so mid otherwise)

I was told by a friend that Fishman Island was one of the worst arcs in One Piece, and now I have really really high expectations for the new world cause um. This is a really strong first half and the Fisher Tiger and Otohime flashback was so good and such an amazing moment for Nami?? Y'all are sleeping on this arc.
#like ok i could do without the sanji gags it's really annoying#but otherwise i dont really have complaints so far maybe i will in the second half#just the island but especially the palace are so beautiful it's eye candy#and the fisher tiger flashback was amazing and such a good moment between nami and jimbei#desperately have wanted more focus on nami and FINALLY got it#i've read a lot of fantasy as well and this is a surprisingly one of the most nuanced and complex and mature ways i've seen racism depicted#and fantasy can oftentimes drop the ball hard on that so i appreciate oda for doing it so well in this arc#and obviously summit war was amazing but seeing them all together again is really really nice#the villains are admittedly kinda eh so far but they serve their purpose well enough#is this my favorite one piece arc? No it doesn't beat out the likes of Water 7/Marineford but#it is in the upper half for me#one piece#op liveblog
