I get that calling white lotus lbh a sticky little 'sheep' is a canon translation and stuck in the fandom now anyway, but I do feel the intended spirit of the original word wasn't the sheeple/dumb herd animal that's more common in the western world, but instead something actually conveying sweetness, innocence, purity and youth - lamb.

Famous for being utterly adorable and following around their mothers, gambolling in sunny meadows, curly white wool shining.

And NOW we can talk about black sheep/wolf in sheep's clothing metaphors.

#Picturing Sqq sweetly calling lbh a little lamb 🥺#Him calling lbh a sheep never felt quite right but LAMB???#And lbh following him around all bright and gangly and moon eyed ToT #Did you know the phrase originates from the wool of black sheep being much harder to dye and thus being undesirable in the wool industry?#That's why sheep are white and not like. Tan or brown or w/e like more natural colours.#But the black fur gene still pops up sometimes so you get white wool parents and siblings and a tiny black lamb trotting along #Who's wool you can never sell and who can't risk having offspring of their own #Also where the baa baa black sheep rhyme comes from! The wool was often sold at a very cheap price because it was so undesirable!#Ngl if someone called me their lamb idk what I'd do. Something desperate for sure #Theyre also sometimes a symbol for Jesus especially around Easter. So. That's a. Thing. That Sqq would most certainly read far too deep int #svsss #mxtx svsss #scum villain #luo binghe #luo bingge #luo bingmei #scum villain's self saving system #scum system #bingqiu #bingyuan #Idk but considering I'm talking about their pet names I'll count it #Gosh lbh calling Sqq shepherd in response... Crook around his neck metaphor I'll go wherever you lead us my guiding star mmm #Sleepy? Yes. Right? Also yes

Director of the False Last Act

#orv #omniscient reader's viewpoint #orv spoilers #han sooyoung #art i made #another of the drawings i fished out of my drafts that i completely forgot id started #if the face doesnt look like how i usually draw hsy uh. i apparently did the lineart like 4 months ago #and the way i used to draw her was WAY different #like i had to redo the face cuz i was like man this aint my girl wtf #oh yeah the sort of. watsonian reason why the title of the book shes holding is scrubbed out is bc it could either be twsa or orv i guess #the doylist reason is i couldnt decide between twsa or orv so now its neither LOL #side note but like. intellectually i know the thousand hand guan yin is like an actual thing in buddhism but my familiarity with it is #mostly from the dance move #so like as i was colouring this i was just imagining hsy like creating this pose in universe w the avatars which. one hell of an image #only two of the hands are supposed to represent like specific points in the story the rest are just. symbolic...?#the lemon candy one is obvious and the knife one is meant to be from when she stabs 49!kdj in the epilogue #also holy god im so bad at coming up with backgrounds for this kind of art #the original background i had i think i was trying to make it look like some kind of. book cover...? hence the borders #whatever it was it wasnt working #now i have no idea what its supposed to be 👍 like its giving. poorly designed tarot card

Picture this; Bones holding Joanna, rocking her to sleep and the part in Beautiful Boy where it’s like “The monster's gone, He's on the run, And your daddy's here” is playing. :,)

Fatherhood gives you certain... skills. Coincidentally, this is also how Jim finds out that Bones sings.

:'))

Casey Stoner, Pushing the Limits

#casey stoner #brr brr #//#i realised i had one important take about the casey/vale rivalry that isn't linked to my actual thesis about them because. listen #i think about this line like. once a week. it haunts me in my sleep. i cannot carry this burden on my own any longer #casey. casey. is it really cOVERED?? with luminous yellow?? COVERED????#i'm not massively fond of the shade of red either but i don't think valentino was involved in making it more orange #my man saw the tiniest hint of yellow and was like 'what the fuck is this'#like valentino's LEATHERS are a wee bit yellow but that's!! not!! the bike!! also casey YOU had the aussie flag on your bloody bike number #the green is also on nicky hayden's gp12 btw like it's LITERALLY JUST THE NUMBER that's yellow #YOU DON'T EVEN SEE THE SEAT WHEN HE'S SITTING ON THE GP11 CASEY IT'S A RED BIKE #i don't have a coherent point about this but it is a LITTLE fascinating! like this made it into his autobiography!!#it's such an interesting thing to even notice no? like you're thinking about their stunning blood red being contaminated?#Does He View Valentino Rossi As An Infection? this is some symbolically potent shit when u think about it #do u think all valentino's victims have like. some kind of deeply ingrained aversion to the colour yellow. pavlovian response and all that #to be clear i find this very funny and i support casey in being a bit demented about valentino. who amongst us #heretic tag

I find it funny how the d(a)emons have cool icons like horns or some cool image that has some symbolism, and then there's Azmidi who's icon is a phone because...he uses it

#caelum vega and scorpius have horns #Aviors is a needle with some symbolism behind it #regulus is a security icon but the colours are what seal the deal #idk what Gavin and Cam have but it's cool as all hell #then there's Azmidi #and his generic spooky movie phone ass icon #this is not meant to be hateful i just find it funny #redacted audio #redacted asmr #redactedverse

More clothing studies, this time from my fic Axis. I was aiming for authenticity while also trying to have each of their personalities show a little bit in their clothing choices. Two for Nicky, to show his layers.

#tog #the old guard #for reference the fic takes place in 1625 in iceland. i still don't think they're bundled enough though lol.#nicolo di genova #yusuf al kaysani #andromache of scythia #no quynh :(#these were a n i g t m a r e to crop correctly. tumblr why are you like this.#hence the cropping might look a little weird #siggy draws #i think these sketches took a month and a half lol. now i will be quiet about this fic and focus on writing something else.#what do we think about this style? the differently coloured lineart and the slight lighting? and the rough colours?#also i forgot my siggynature on ALL of these but that's ok. you know who i am sdfghf #my new obsession is clothing details i guess!! could always make it more detailed though! with lots of practice i can try.#no real director's commentary on these drawings like i usually write for my sketches asdsfgfd #just that this is mostly what they wear in the fic. add a coat for andy maybe and some mitts for joe.#and more weapons and bags and stuff #can't really see nicky's braids but he's got one big french braid and a few tiny ones on the sides of his head connecting to it.#his hair is like shoulder-blade length. it's about the symbolism!! of not making a change for a long time!! until he does cut it!!#and andy is wearing quynh's necklace under her shirt of course </3 #joe rolls his pantaloons above the knee for maximum movement (horseriding) and fashion (gay)#i have a crush on the first nicky sketch like he's so cunty for no reason #well. he's possibly supposed to be having a serious conversation/argument with andy #kudos to the ref picture i used of luca just standing Like That
