I may have inattentive adhd? haven’t got diagnosed (don’t plan to either because I hear it makes finding a job difficult) but a friend got diagnosed and her symptoms sound a lot like mine:

(executive dysfunction, difficulty transitioning tasks and focusing, hyper-fixations where I cannot think about much else and forget to do basic things like eat and go to the bathroom, terrible memory, ‘weird’ trains of thought)

(I also have a couple symptoms I didn’t ask her about like my love of lists and decision trees and another one I forgot while trying to spell decision)

I haven’t told anyone about my suspicions but I can’t help but feel like I am faking it. (mainly because I didn’t suspect adhd until tiktok blew it up and I feel like diagnosing myself because I relate to people/memes is silly, everyone feels something like this to an extent right?)

(also if anyone has any advice you think could help regardless of if I have adhd or not (like how to function w/o meds or advice to help me focus on something I’m not hyper-fixating on or anything really please share)

((now that I think about it if I have adhd my dad might have adhd too (if I have it I mean)? when I complained about some symptoms like difficulty focusing, spending forever re-reading a page and not actually reading/getting distracted by literally nothing, and wanting to study but not being able to move my body he told me that it’s normal and he felt like that when he was my age (could be nothing tho I tend to overthink) ))

aaaaa sorry i wrote a lot (I tried to break it into mini-paragraphs to make it easier to read)

HELLO HI THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY!💖

Here’s a quick reference to Chong Kraben (or Jong Kraben). And, you’re absolutely right. It’s actually spelled “Chong Kraben”, but since I’m Thai myself, I usually translate Thai words in to an English spelling myself without relying on google😭🙏

The reason I wrote “Jong Kraben” is because the letter จ in โจง (Jong) is “J”— so I wasn’t expecting it to be spelled with a “CH” at all. Otherwise it’s be โชงกระเบน (but then that would sound like Shong Kraben? Thai is hard so I give up😔 don’t worry about spelling or butchering Thai words because I, as a Thai person, do it too </3) Anyway, this is a mistake on my part for not writing the correct spelling for the Thai word i deeply apologize🥲.

ANYWAY- BACK TO THE (horrible) REFERENCE SHEET!

Anan and Charin don’t wear Chong Kraben. They wrap a towel around their waist like in the first and second photo! I just realized that I’ve never made a character sheet for them (since I’ve never expected any fanarts of them at all whoops💀) and that Charin’s towel is barely visible in his character introduction post. Another mistake on my part, super sorry.😭

Also, I’ve looked through most (if not all) of the photos on google on Chong Kraben and yeah, they’re pretty accurate so don’t worry about drawing them wrong🫶

Chong Kraben is actually a long piece of fabric, wrapped around your waist and tied into pants (I explained it weirdly, I know, but I’ll add a video down below to show you how Chong-Kraben works!)

That said, if you find a Chong Kraben photo that looks odd (as in they look like they’re pre made), don’t worry, it’s a normal thing. Most children wear pre-made Chong Kraben. However, most people just get a towel (or a big piece of fabric) and make the Chong Kraben themselves. The fabric are usually silks!

There are a few (or many, but I do know some) ways to tie a Chong Kraben— but here’s a common one. However, this method needs a belt (some don’t).

(here’s an update— my dumbass just searched what the towel is called in English and it’s called a sash. My dumbass strikes once again BUT IN MY DEFENSE I DIDN’T KNOW WHAT IT’S CALLED IN THAI EITHER SO-)

Here are some examples on the sashes! You can search ผ้าผูกเอว if you wanna see more photos💖

Anan and Charin don’t have Chong Kraben on so don’t worry about drawing it. BUT Pin-Cha wears them (with a belt made of jewels, no less) so if you want to draw Pin-Cha in the future, lmk so I can quickly whip up a proper reference sheet!!🫶✨

I assume you got the Chong Kraben part on Pin-Cha’s little fun-fact design sjifjusbhcjisiidnu but yeah, dw about it the other two boys don’t wear em! I mentioned that the way people tie the sashes look a little similar to the knots on (some) Chong Kraben, sorry if there’s any misunderstanding I’m not very good with words myself🥹🙏

As you can see from the reference photos, there are many and creative ways to tie a sash- much as how to tie your own Chong Kraben. But thank you, and I mean it, thank you for asking me about this! It’s okay to not know something, what matters is that you are willing to learn/find info about it without coming off as disrespectful💪✨ i don’t mind asking questions like these at all so feel free to ask me more!

This is the LONGEST POST I’VE WRITTEN IN THE HISTORY OF MY OWN BLOG😧 I’m pretty sure that what I’m typing here probably doesn’t make sense because my brain is a jumbled mess. I suck at explaining things😭 I completely understand your concern on drawing it right or not though because I would be too💀 especially when I’m drawing things that are not from my culture.

I’ll drop by with a proper reference sheet soon! I’m back to being busy again and I suck at time management so let’s see if “soon” is actually true😭 THANK YOU AGAINNNNN💖🥹

PERMISSION TO DRAW THIS PLEASE I’LL TAG YOU (for the delicious brainrot you gave me)😭🙏✨✨

To draw the birthing of a conch after 9 months of pregnancy or to draw Paulie taking Pin-cha over to NRC? (Joking, I'm pretty sure you mean Paulie... right?) Go right ahead! I'm completely fine with anyone using my twst ocs (that are apart of dorms/based off disney characters) but definitely would love to be tagged so I can see it!

(Though it it's actually just Pin-cha bringing in dirt, of course you can. I don't really feel claim/ownership over general ideas. The only things I would want tagging/ownership of is my ocs. Oh what if it's the sitting at Azul's desk part? What if Pin-cha's so short that you can barely see his head with the desk in the way?)

Oh I've gotten like halfway through with the comic I'm making that has Anan and Charin in it. I was going to message you in regards to the Jong-kra-ben but realized with how I've drawn so far, that I don't think there's enough of it shown to actually worry if I've gotten it right. Though since you are messaging, may I ask if they both wear a Jong-kra-ben? (Crap I'm hoping I'm remembering how that's spelled exaclty) I've looked it up but I'm uncertain if Google was actually showing me the right thing as it was also showing results for like a Chong-kraben or something of similar spelling... plus the article that explained how to wear it looked different to your drawings.

Do you already have some drawings or reference images in regards to that type of clothing? Sadly my american schooling has basically taught me nothing when it comes to the world outside of America.. Uhhmm you can answer this in your own post or reblogging if you do want to answer my question regarding Jong-kra-ben. You don't have to answer if you don't want to. Though answers regarding to at least if they wear the same thing or not would be nice as I'm clueless.

Here's a link to Paulie's ref/post so you don't have to hunt him down!

[franeridart]

I can see you have a type...

If the type is The Most Knowledgeable And Smart In Their Group But Still A Complete Idiot then yes, definitely, I have a type lmao - seriously tho I dunno if this is specifically about DGM (Lavi and Wisely are pretty similar) or if it’s a general thing, but as far as Wisely goes you might not believe this but over half of the reason why he’s my fave is that he suffers from chronic migraines and I Hard Relate

Anon said:MAKO AND TAiYOu ARE THE CuTEST I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. ALSO KIRI WITH LONG HAIR GIVES ME LIFE.

Thank you!!! Super happy you liked them!!!

Anon said:You know, apparently in the raws of Chapter 144, Kirishima’s friend calls him “Ei-chan”, not just Ei

!!!!! thanks for the info! I was actually wondering which between the -kun and -chan they had used!!! 

Anon said:ok but mako and taiyou meet but they have to be on one side of todoroki at first (im sorry i just thought this was super funny)

Haha nah it never got to that, it didn’t take too long for them to teach him to keep his own temperature under check - the fun thing about this actually is that Todoroki’s Tai’s fave hero (Bakugou still can’t believe this rip him) (it’s because with how Tai can lower and raise temperature their quirks are sorta similar) so if anything like that had ever happened Tai would have imploded, probably

For information sake, Mako’s fav hero is Gang Orca! Of course without counting their dads, that goes without saying

Anon said:THE BAKUSHIMA KIDS ARE SO CUTE AAAAAAAAA quick question though: how much do you think uncle Kaminari spoils them

Nearly as much as Mina does haha Kaminari’s Tai’s fave “uncle”, actually, since just like Bakugou because of his electricity Kami barely feels the heat so Tai never accidentally hurt him even back when he still couldn’t control himself at all! On a related note Mako’s fav uncle is Tetsutetsu - when she first saw him she was convinced he was a shark too and she was kinda sad when she found out she was wrong, but she still treats him as if they were kin lol if one of Tetsu’s visit goes by without him going “she’s mine now” even once then something’s wrong haha

Anon said: mako: just keep swimming just keep swimming

*high pitched dying noise* this is the cutest thing 

Anon said:FRAN. FRAN. THE KIDS AU. ngl i’m actually choking up here thinking about domestic blasty and kirishima being good happy dads?? AND THE KIDS THEY’RE SO CUTE!!! (on a side note i never knew i wanted bakugou with an undercut but now i just.. hnnng) AND!! AND THEY’RE SO LOVING WITH THEIR KIDS (just as they will be, you know it, i know it) just. thank you so much for this. (also, one question– how did the two of them deal with, yknow, diapers when they first got their kids?? lol)

Ahhh I’m glad you liked them!!!! And they didn’t actually have to deal with that, Mako was adopted when she was four and Tai when he was seven!

Anon said: Do you have any ships from little witch academia???? Im so happy, i saw them in your style!!!

Also who is your fave character(s) from lwa??????

Amanda’s my fave!!!! And I ship her a lot with Akko! Constanze and Lotte are also faves, but Amanda’s, like, the love of my life probably haha

Anon said:mako and tayou look like sharpedo and camerupt and i love it

It’s okay it’s not a bother dw! And depending on who you’re trying to talk to they might have the messaging option up only for people they’re following/disabled altogether, so that might be the problem!

Anon said:What if all 33 (or more depending on when you get to this) of your fusions where in a class together? (I also wrote down the names I tried to fuse together and tried to figure out quirk names. I failed on that part.)

You mean if they were actual singular people and not fusions? I don’t think they’d be able to survive all together haha

Anon said:Husbands! Baku and Kiri give me life tbh especially that one painting with Kiri’s black roots and them having a family is 10/10 I love all your art with them SO MUCH BLESS YOU

THANK!!! YOU!!!! FOR LIKING THEM!!!!!! AHHHH!!!!!!!!

Anon said:I have a suggestion. What about someone with an ice and dry ice quirk? One parent had ice and the other had liquid nitrogen (or something quite similar) do you think that’d be cool?

That would be pretty damn strong!! And cool, definitely, I’d like to see something like that!! °O°

Anon said:AAAAAAA IM SCREAMING AND CRYING CRYING SO MUCH thank you so much for blessing me with the kiribaku kids im so inlove

sob thank you so much ;A; I’m glad you like themmmm!!!

Anon said:I started watching BNHA kinda out of boredom but I also wanted to understand your bakukirikami art and I feel like I have been E N L I G H T E N E D. I UNDERSTAND NOW, after a whole year of teetering whether to watch it or not I’m glad I started! I’ve also almost read the whole manga, nothing can stop this free fall now.

AYYYYYYYYYYYY NICE!!!!!!!!! I’m glad you’re actually liking it, welcome in the fandom!!!

Anon said:That’s it I’m completely in love with you and your art I’m all in /oh my God./ Kiribaku kids is so sweet and soft, and I love all the thought and ideas you put into it. I also really loved their hair too, and the way they both were w the kids was so lovely I cried a lil. I love the idea of kiribaku being together in the future and then you added kids and it was great. I also loved baku’s mom’s mention I love the idea of that entire family you’re so good and I hope you’ve had a lovely day!!!!

Thank youuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m so so so happy you liked them this much omfg ;; you’re so nice ahhhh

Anon said:Hi i love sharks and uhhhh i have stuff i wanna say could be part of the kiribaku kid’s quirk but idk if you’d be alright w that??

I don’t mind one bit so go for it, but I can’t promise the stuff will actually be part of the quirk in the end - I already got ideas for it, but it’s not important since I don’t know if I’ll ever draw them older, and right now both she and the quirk aren’t developed enough for her to do more than what I mentioned!

(If she’d been with her biological parents they would have told her what to expect from it/she would have known watching them, but since she’s adopted and neither Baku nor Kiri have ever known a shark before they’re kind of going at this blind haha it’s gonna take a lot of googling and trying stuff out until they find something that works, once she’ll start training)

Anon said:Today I dedicated myself to finishing the manga for boku no hero and I can safely say it’s ruined my life. Yay, suffering!!! I’m so obsessed. Send help.

How can I send help when I’m in your same conditon a n on

[whale-shark-queen]

You mentioned fucked up weird AUs in your one post? I'm interested. Tell me about your favourite one(s)!!

AAAaaaah thank you so much!!

Uhhhhhhh heck most of them involve N turning into some horrible Thing because he’s the Estranged Outsider with a Connection to the Bad Guys Even If It’s Not Willingly (yknow like how Eren from snk is a titan shifter or Rin from blue exorcist is part demon) and all of them involve vuvuzelashipping (Nxall the Nuvema lot) I don’t really have a single favourite but I’ll summarize the ones I like most (also note that some of them are good dad Ghetsis/Dadsis aus because u gotta balance out the angst somehow plus dadsis aus are Cool)

Under the cut because I literally can’t summarise for shit and I’m sure no one wants to scroll past 3 pages worth of this (mobile users I apologise since the app is SHIT and refuses to even acknowledge these) 

Also here’s a bit of an index so u can skip to ones that sound interesting instead of going through them all but first u should ask nationalharmonica about her aus bc I love all of hers and they’re awesome and need more love and she also helped with alot of these aus too!! ESPECIALLY the Dragonflower au which I won’t include here because I think she has it on her blog somewhere already.  If ur wondering why I haven’t posted any of these it’s because a) i have neither the skill, time or patience to draw up proper references for all of the characters involved and b) I’m always worried theyll seem too Out There for some people but here we go au masterpost i guess, if anyone reading would like more info feel free to ask!!!

Bacterial Contamination inspired au aka bacterial pestileNce

BotW au

Ib au

PMMM au (the longest one)

Plasma/Aether swapover, N wins+UB monochromeshipping au

Simple fNaf dadsis au

sister locatioN dicksis au (yes I have two for that because I only found out about the secret springtrap cutscene at the end of SL that changes everything the other day)

Nombie (dadsis) au

isolatioN au- Au based on the song Bacterial Contamination.  N goes to the snobbiest most pretentious school you can imagine only because his ex mafia boss dad wants the best for him.  N hides the fact he’s being relentlessly bullied until a teacher phones Ghetsis up asking why N is in such a state whenever he comes into school (BC bruises and cuts and looking roughed up in general).  N goes to therapy and gets meds but surprise they’re an experimental drug and he’s a bug boy now

- BotW au where Touya is Link, Cheren as Revali, Bianca is Mipha and Touko is Zelda.  Ghetsis (who is kinda like Demise if he hung around to make sure his curse worked) is the king of a neighboring region who’s a bit of a warmongering asshole but his son N is friends with princess Touko and her…ahem, associates, which is the only reason Touko’s dad stays civil with him at all.  He uses this to his advantage and infects N with the Malice and reveals his plan to take over Unova, knowing fine well that N would run away to Touko for help.  The truth is he’d set up N to be a ticking time bomb and eventually he becomes the Calamity.  After the whole ~100 year coma and releasing the divine beasts~ thing Touya only remembers who N is after killing him but dw there’s a blood moon just as Touko is sealing the Malice away and N’s freed spirit is brought back to become a friendly giant fluffy spider boy just because I said so

- Ib au with N as Mary (obv Ghetsis is Guertena) except instead of going crazy and trying to kill everyone and being burned up and dying himself the toutous make him sit in the frame while they drag it out of the portal to the real world: problem solved.  I have all this stuff about the others being able to step into his frame but he can’t leave unless someone else draws him so he can possess the drawing but I won’t go into it here BC this post is gonna be long enough already

-Okay I have two madoka aus because possibilities for N are Ndless but I’ve only really developed the dicksis version whereas I only have a witch design for a possible dadsis version so here’s the dicksis one.  The first: Ghetsis is kinda like Walpurgisnacht and N was originally a familiar that represented Ghetsis’ interest being only in things that directly oppose him who was becoming powerful enough to become a witch of his own.  Not wanting him to have even a fraction of power himself Ghetsis transformed him into a human shape, gave him sentience and intelligence and as close to a pure heart as possible so he would be easier to manipulate and led him to believe that magical girls/boys hunt down innocent witches for fun and have witches trapped in their soul gems and tasks N with stealing people’s soul gems to ‘free the witch inside’.  The problem is that the alteration gave N the mindset of ‘innocents who aren’t involved must be protected at all costs’ rather than Ghetsis’ mindset of ‘don’t give a fuck about anyone unless they’re a problem’.  N is also sent to integrate into human society so that he can find magical peepos easier so he ends up coincidentally going to school with the Nuvema kiddos.  He ends up becoming friends with them until he finds out Cheren and Bianca are magicas (I’m just gonna call them that for simplicity) but even though the toutous arent magicas they still support them which is all very upsetting and conflicting for N but he tries his best to protect the witches and steal more soul gems until the others eventually call him out on it and prove to him that the shit Ghetsis told him is bull.  When he goes to confront him about it it’s too late, Ghetsis has absorbed enough witches to become a Walpurgisnacht-like entity, and finally allows N to become a witch.  I’ll link the drawings I’ve done of him but basically his labyrinth would be like a puppet theater and even tho hes the witch he’d have this fuckin giant messed up ghetsis-lookin puppet master familiar who pulls at his strings and coordinates his attacks.  There’d be an audience of masked figures that look like all the magicas he’s caused the deaths of, tiny animals with scissors to represent his wish for freedom and also his fear of his ‘father’ since they never actually get to cut the strings holding him up, and figures that look a heck of a lot like the nuvema kiddos watching in a balcony.  This is all tied into a theory I came up with that almost all the witches are able to be saved since yknow how Homura had that figure of Madoka locked away and Madoka was able to bring her back, and how Sayaka had the violin guy and Charlotte had that doll that probably represents her dead mother? My guess is that if the people those figures represent are brought to the witch and reach out to them the magical girl inside would be able to be freed.  But yeah since N was never really a human the Nuvema kiddos can only really save a fraction of his conscious and he ends up like Bebe.  They all beat the shit out of Ghetsis and everyone lives happily ever after with their pocket witch bf

- the au where 1) plasma and aether are sort of swapped around and 2) N beats the toutous in the final battle.  This is actually based on nationalharmonica’s courtesaN au which is awesome BTW (but it doesn’t involve actual courtesans or N being a courtesan at all but its Sarah’s au so if you’re interested you should totally ask her about it).  Ghetsis keeps Touko and Touya prisoner and just to rub it in their faces blackmails Cheren and Bianca into joining and doing sciency experiment shit which ends up with Touko and Touya becoming UB fusions/hybrids themselves; Touya with Kartana and Touko with Celesteela.  Ofc in the later stages they are able to destroy their place of confinement and escape with Cheren and Bianca to find N who becomes understandably fucked off and upset that his friends have been put through all this shit but begs them not  to kill Ghetsis so he can ask what’s going on.  When he does Ghetsis stabs him with a syringe full of UB fusion shit because he knows fine well hes gonna die he just wanted a final ‘fuck you’ before he is killed by both fire and paper cuts.  Surprise! It’s a Guzzlord.  N becomes a big squishy boy. I’ve done drawings of N in human Guzzlord fusion/hybrid form but I’ve been afraid of posting it but uh if anyones interested i will

- Simplified fNaf dadsis au - basically N and the Nuvema kiddos are the ones that were killed and stuffed in the animatronics, Ghetsis owns the place but risks going bankrupt pouring money into helping find the culprit and also his son and his friends when they’ve been stuck in the one restaurant he kept open to stay afloat.  Nate is the new nightguard and they decide to fuck with him to get rid of some of the boredom of being alone together in the one building for like…30 years or so.  In the end they fess up and make Nate pizza as an apology and they’re chill again

- sister locatioN dicksis au - I already summarised a thing i wrote of it in response to an anon but I’ll include here too.  Once again Ghetsis owns all the shit with the animatronics.  Anthea and Concordia get killed by one of them when they were young so years later Ghetsis sends N down to ‘free’ them (surprise he only wanted to get rid of N) but since their spirits have been fused into one hideous amalgamation of animatronics they’ve gone a bit loopy and want to leave.  The whole scooping room thing ensues and they accidentally turn their brother into a zombie

- Nombie au bc Z is a sideways N heheh I ahven’t thought up much of the background for it but it involves Plasma being a pharmaceutical company that is sort of accidentally being the cause of it.  N gets separated from his dad who ends up being the leader of a large group of people in a little town sort of thing they were able to reclaim but is Sad bc he thinks his son is dead which ends up being half true bc surprise N is half immune and ends up being a conscious zombie boy who wears a curtain as a cloak so he doesnt immediately frighten people bc he got his eye shot out by hillbilies, his face scratched up, his throat bitten out and his heart impaled on a pole (hes a freak without a human heart geddit) zombie apocalypse stuff happens

- isolatioN au - basically spawned from the thought of ’what if N was kept even more hidden away/locked up/never even left at all’.  Plasma is instead secretly in the Pokemon poaching/hunting/selling business but are disguised as…well you already know about Plasma.  The nuvema kiddos had varying levels of rough childhood and were desperate for money so they all joined up; the toutous as night guards and the dualrival s as researchers.  Hidden deep in the facility is a certain tree haired manchild who has been kept in a cage for pretty much his entire life.  Ghetsis does a mother gothel and makes out its to keep him safe and brings him Pokemon to ask about where they live and what other kinds of Pokemon live there so that Ghetsis can release them safely back into the wild go hunt for more Pokemon in the area if there’s anything good there

There’s a few more that I have but I won’t include them because im worried it’d be a waste of time if no one takes interest in any of these but uh thanks for asking and reading if you did!!!
