I like songs less than 3 minutes & even better those short punky ones that come in at under 2 minutes. This one clocks in at 2mins & 5 secs.

Ghost Car were fun.

This is the first Gemsona that I ever heard of, and I absolutely love her!!! Thank you, @nrwynter !

So I saw gemsona-hq’s Pearl Party prompt and I thought it would make for a great designing exercise. Basically, I designed a pearl for a character on the show. As you can see, I chose Sardonyx!

Meet Conch Pearl: much like Sardonyx, Conch Pearl is over the top and dramatic. She’s outgoing and cheerful and looks forward to what the future holds. Conch Pearl is diligent, but also slightly mischievous as she enjoys pulling pranks on Sardonyx and the other Crystal Gems. Similarly to Sardonyx, Conch Pearl likes performing but loves cinematography and behind-the-scenes production more. She makes sure Sardonyx’s performances are perfect and leave her audience dazzled. From time to time, Conch Pearl will take up the role of a magician’s assistant. She deeply admires Sardonyx and hopes she can be a great performer like her.

After a little break, I am back again.

I've been going through some personal stuff as of late, and honestly, I've been playing SDV again. It is oddly calming to my, what feels like, hectic brain. Enjoy some Snow siblings.

So who's going to pry open my shell to look upon the grain of truth in the most tender part of myself and tell me their unvarnished opinion of it?

I was intending to upload this picture here yesterday but I must have gotten tiered and forgot!

Emperess Nautilus, ruler of the Neptonians

Every year I try to do a drawing of her to see how my art has progressed. This is this years addition.

May has been… a lot and I have not really processed it or really registered that it happened entirely.

But I still managed to finish this.

Something Lore wise that always sort of surprises me about Nautilus is her hair.

See, she’s blond. Which among the sea people is a rather rare trait. Their “hair” tends to be colors of black and brown and in some places blues, grays and purples. Sometimes you might even see some ghostly greenish white. Meanwhile reds and blonds are rare as for the neptonians it is a detrimental mutation.

See I’ve explained it before but, Neptonian hair is not like human hair. It’s thicker and hollow with pores all along it’s shaft.

This along with some other specifics not entirely worked out yet allows neptonians to shift the texture and colors of their hair allowing it to act as portable camouflage. As they use it to mimic seaweed and other aquatic plants and structures.

(And when it’s not camouflage, their hair tends to have venomous stingers at the end or all along the shaft)

Blond hair and by a lesser extension red hair dose not have this mutation, meaning that they can not successfully camouflage to their surroundings. Making them vulnerable to predation and easier to spot by prey.

In other words. Emperess Nautilus is Considered a disabled woman among her own species.

Which is wild to me as by humans standards she is not in any sense of the word.

Though it’s not a Big Deal. Of all the people In the world the Neptonians are among, if not the best at accommodating and Adjusting for differently body ability. After all their empire consists of vastly different people, and even among the larger everyday population of the empire their citizens tend to have three vastly different body types that need different accommodations. As well as a population that does not stop growing as it ages. So why not build things with access for other difference too?

Within the central hemisphere neptonian Architects are considered some of the best in the world.

This along with neptonians lobbing for accessibility to their citizens in land dwelling countries has changed the way most public (and many private) buildings are designed within the southern half of scalipia (ideas eventually migrated north), and Aukulir. As well as all of Gargoraqi.

Empress Nautilus’s mutation is not a huge deal for her everyday life at least in the current empire.

For one thing she is the Empress, the most powerful person politically, economically and socially in the nation.

Her needs are met. (And so are the majority of basic needs for all her citizens)

And she had it relatively well of to start with. After all before she became Empress she had a loving pod. That helped her hunt and provided protection. She also used to keep her hair shorter; a bit of a social faux pas, as short hair is seen as a signifier that a person is aggressive. Cutting their hair to declare ‘war’ on someone. Though she simply cut it to lessen the drag as she swam.

Her daughter phillipa, dose not have blond hair and has black hair she inherited from her father.

I'm genuinely confused as to why people are so upset about Percy getting 4 pearls. Is it not obvious that he'll lose one? It would be weird as hell for Posideon to give him 3 and be the reason he has to choose.

It makes more sense that Posideon would try to help Percy acheice his goal AND get his mother back. And it's gonna be even more gut wrenching when one of the pearls gets lost or broken and we watch his hope fade in real time.
