The annual ballpoint pallanoph in celebration of clinging to this rocky sphere for one more year (despite appearances) was delayed by a few days. Oops! I’m not dead, just growing older.

Art is still hard, but this runs on autopilot sometimes. And sometimes, that’s enough.

#pallanophs #Qiara #creature design #personal character #ballpoint pens #traditional art #sketchbook #just drawing her hairdo gives me weird joy so I’m clinging to it #she is hogging the birthday doodles it is unfair #pen will always be an old friend I think #even in these artblocked times #things are weighing on my mind but I looked at spring ephemerals blooming and it was very good #hopefully I get back on top this year #sorry for the slack I’m old

As promised, a bunch of sketches I did in free time. Obsessed is an understatement.

#not to complain ab the same stuff i always complain ab #but my artblock is soooo bad . its so bad and frustrating and limiting and demotivating #because instead of being able to draw whatever whenever i feel like im chained to random bursts of inspiration #that i cant manifest just by willing it so yk. and imlike why…#so many ppl who draw whether for their job or for their hobby seem to be able to do it whenever #and its like yeah i could put pen to paper rn but theres such a mental disconnect that its not enjoyable anymore #dude its so whateverr😭😭 like its so made up and ik its just a psychological thing but it feels so physically .Hard #rrrgwgqq #like i try to maintain the habit by drawing stuff out even w no end in mind #but that also stresses me out bc its likeIDKK idk #silly tbh #seeing all of this art arnd me all the time > online and stuff is so nice and inpsiring #and it makes me want to do that too but i legitcannot . like i am being squished by a boulder and my hands are chained to 30lb weights #whatfreakign ever dude .like whateverrr #i want to grind my brain 2 a pulp . honestly🙌#like what do u mean u cant u literally just do it.but im the one exception to that

controversial fma opinion, but maybe really this time

The scene where Bradley and Hawkeye talk while drinking tea often gets interpreted by fandom as Bradley subtly bullying Hawkeye for not being able to be together with the person she loves, while he can. I disagree.

And it is not even the case that she is not able to marry. She can. With just one simple trick she can have that: quit her job. She chooses not to for obvious reasons.

I think the scene is way more about Bradley and his humanity than it is about Hawkeye’s shitty love life. And about choices. Bradley asks Riza’s opinion on her head of state and son being homunculi. She tells him that she thinks it is sad that his family is a lie when his family is something that the people of Amestris deeply believe in. It’s sad to her that he is playing pretend at being human.

He agrees he plays pretend. None of his position and achievements he earned on his merit. He plays pretend at being a dictator too. He gives the orders but does not come up with them. His whole life has been pre-planned for him. Bradley publically having a son was planned for him.

But he chooses his wife. He does not pretend that. He loves her. It’s his human side shining through. Hawkeye is upset about the state of her country and that its leader is a monster. But here Bradley displays something so human to her, in loving his wife. And yeah that is shocking to her. Up until now, the protagonists have only thought of the homunculi as evil monsters that are nothing like themselves that need to be destroyed. But they are similar. Both of them have feelings, desires and families.

To Hawkeye, Bradley was on top of the country in the ultimate position of power making the decisions. But it turns out he was not in control at all and did not choose this life. Hawkeye did choose her life's path and all the murders she committed are a result of that. So who is the real monster now?

(People that are smarter writers than me can say it better. But to me the scene is basically ‘we are not so different after all’ rather than being about 🤢 mustang.)

#tekst #verwijder later #becomming a discourse blog while on artblock #but not everything about riza is actually about mustang all the time #she is her own character too >:(#bradley is probably my favourite humonculus #he is so interesting #i also love that riza keeps refering to bradley and selim as father and son when knowing the truth even when speaking to others who know
