My larger eraser blocks finally arrives, and I can finally take another crack at @shelternmberone 's Vash designs <3

A couple of errors, but really happy with it! Tomorrow I have some water- and oil-based lino/relief printing inks and tools arriving, so I'll share how the carving looks with those inks compared to the basic inkpad I've been using so far :D

RUBBER DUCK ATTACK SEQUENCE

You ever miss childhood so much it feels like being homesick for your younger self.

Have yall ever wanted to eat wood???

If you do:

Make sure it's a pencil or smth, take out the lead obvi and chow down on that bitch, you're now 1000% less likely to choke, break your teeth, or get a splinter in your mouth/throat. You gotta chew a bit tho before you can swallow it like most foods, never just bite into a block of wood, there's a high chance you hurt your teeth & they hurt for a few hours.

If you don't:

Fuck off/j

thinking again about augustine and mercymorn. it's so easy to tell that tazmuir was a homestuck because those two are the most kismesis hatesoulmate characters i have ever seen in a work of fiction

Transfer student NYC!MC vs UK slang

Both F!MC and Sebastian are in the Undercroft, reviewing their Arithmancy notes before getting started on their homework. As a magical math class, this is one of the few time they are required to write their work in pencil.

Unfortunately Sebastian makes a mistake and forgot one thing back in his room. And while the two friends do speak the English language....well you'll see:

Sebastian: Shit. Hey MC, it looks like I forgot my rubber. Do you have one I can borrow? 😒

MC: 🫤Oh...wow...uh I didn't know you were active, but I don't. 😐Sorry...😅

Sebastian: What do you mean you don't? 🤨 You're always carry everything in your satchel! 🤨😠

MC: Be for real Sebastian. 🙄 Do you really think I would be carrying one around? 🤨

Sebastian: Uh...yes. 🤨 I've seen you carry them before. Multiples of them. Now can I please have one? 🙄 😒

MC: What are you talking about? I don't have one Sebastian. 😠

*Ominis walks into the Undercroft and stops in surprise to hear his two friends fight*

Sebastian: Yes you do! 🙄 You're holding it in your hand! 😠

Ominis: What is going on you two!?! 😤 What are you arguing about now?!?🙄

MC: Sebastian is asking if I have a fucking rubber and I told him I DON'T!!! 😠

Sebastian: Yes YOU DO!!! 😫 You're holding one in your hand!!!😠😤

MC: Does this look like a FUCKING CONDOM to you Sallow?!?! 🤬

Sebastian: What?!? 😕😳

Ominis: While I'm pleased that you finally told her Sebastian, but are you seriously going to fuck in my Undercroft?🤨

Sebastian: NO! I didn't tell nor was I even asking her for that! I just want to borrow the thing she has in her hand!😫

Ominis: *Understands the issue* Ahhh...okay. I see the problem here.

Sebastian: Oh do you?!?!🙄

Ominis: No comment. 😒 *turns to MC* MC...that thing in your hand...what do you call that in the States? 🧐

MC: An eraser 🙄...oh...😐😳 you Brits call it a rubber...don't you? 🙃🫠

Ominis: *Nods*

*MC walks over to Sebastian, gives him the eraser before packing up.*

Sebastian: And where are you going?🤨We haven't finished our Arithmancy homework yet!😫

MC: Nope but the British Slang finished me.🥹😖I'm going home guys.😭Back to the States where things make sense. Peace.✌️☮️

MC walks before running out from embarrassment. 🏃‍♀️💨

Sebastian: Hey MC, wait up!!!! You can't leave me!!!! 🏃‍♂️💨

Ominis: *holding Sebastian eraser he left in his room* Well, here's to hoping those two boneheads get together after this. *Whistles as he walks away*

@yellowmagicalgirl

Going off the post yesterday, consider: Locked Tomb NnD au where Penny is Ruby’s cavalier, who sacrifices herself for Ruby like Gideon does for Harrow.

Overall, it would be a pretty straightforward au in terms of GtN’s narrative (Ozpin as a Jod figure could be interesting. I think maybe Cinder in Cytherea’s place?)

Admittedly I just really like the imagery of necromancer!Ruby and Penny works well for her protector, and don't have many more thoughts here.

Also, (and partly why I’m focusing on NnD here when I may have some continued thoughts later for the fake!necro Jaune/necro!ruby/cav!pyrrha angle)

Nona has been a point of inspiration for how I write Copper. Since Nona's also a character who's had a relatively short life, knows very little about the world, but has a lot of Plot Things going on around her that she's not entirely aware of, and is linked to two main characters. It's not a 1:1 comparison, but thinking back on how Tazmuir executed such a POV has been part of my considerations with Copper.

All this is to say, I find the concept of a full Locked Tomb au with the three of them deeply entertaining bc Reasons and wanted to share that thought
