First Lines

I was tagged by the wonderful @zou-i-am and @beardyboyzx to participate, thank you so much!!

Rules: Post the first lines of your last 10 fics posted to AO3. (Sort by date posted.) If you have less than 10 fics posted, post what you have.  

I am going to tag @lululawrence @jacaranda-bloom @muldxr and anyone else from the @writerscornercafe who wants to do this!

1: If anyone asks, Louis will say he’s just being superstitious.

2: “Alright, the next people can come up!” The instructor calls, and Louis dutifully takes a step forward when the man points at him and calls “you two!” though he stops in his tracks the moment he sees who else is stepping forward.

3: Louis’ head throbs.

4: Louis loves his job as a bartender.

5: Liam swallows, looking at the people that are all staring at him.

6: Seven.

7: Louis never thought he’d be here.

8: "Hello and welcome to another episode of Shut up and Listen! The topic today is particular habits you picked up from your exes."

9: “Would you like your eggs cooked, scrambled or fertilised tomorrow morning?”

10: Zayn never thought his life would be this way.

And as a little bonus, have the first lines from my @onedirectionbigbang that is posting April 19th (with gorgeous art by @monpetithl) and from my @faithinthefutureficfest that is posting later this year!

1: Louis sighs, fingers tightening around the handle of the suitcase as he glances up the stairs.

2: It starts with a phone call from Liam.

………..I like to torment myself.

So! I’m back to my usual fuckery, trying to make hand made figures instead of buying them like a normal human being. This time I’m making First Aid! Out of some action toy and plastic sheets because apparently rebuilding Gundams wasn’t hard enough

My starter pack is some white and red styrene sheets + the figure I bought off the shelf. I think these are called “Dummy 13”? Anyway

Drift figure left me with a lot of little cuts. Now I have cuts aaand burns. Nice deal~ I’ve never done anything like it before and my hands aren’t happy lmao

This thing is. Like. Super movable:D It’s neck has two joints, also it’s torso can bend in a bunch of places and ways. Even the tippy toes are movable hehe

Basically. I couldn’t paint anything bc. Well. Winter. So I decided to build out of details that are already the right color👍

It will probably need some painting anyway but not the dramatic amount and not enough to poison me

I loved your headcannons about inukawa, reigen and reigens sister and I would really like to see what you think would happen if mob and reigens sister met and I was wondering if you could possibly draw them :D

hello yes I accidentally made a comic after seeing this ask yesterday 😁 bro psychoanalyzed her 😨

[backpackingspace]

Okay so with the line "the olive tree where we first met" we have two equal hilarious options.

When penelope was sassily like oh I'll marry you if you make a living bed out of this tree right here! Cue penelope stumbling over odysseus very very carefully digging up the tree "because how else is he going to get it to itacha we can't have a wedding bed out in the open in sparta duh"

Or

2. Penelope, knowing that Helen's suitors would soon be arriving to take over her home for a while. Snuck out and went on her own wacky shenanigan filled journey where she scoped out all the major players. Odysseus caught her spying in an olive tree. And when she got back she told Helen she had dibs on the cutie from itacha.

Vil outfit design inspired by high fashion and chapter 5 Overblot design

Vil’s Overblot design reminds me a lot of a nuns habit so I wanted to bring in some recognizable themes such as candles, rosaries , gold detailing and such . For the face droplet mascara and tears meant to mirror crying Mary statues and such .

All this to say I wanted to design something based on these elements and while also being distinctly connected to vil.

I think it’s really interesting that Vil’s Overblot design is so reminiscent of nuns . The juxtaposition of vil who in the spotlight who is well known for his beauty , believing himself to be ugly , is dressed in what is considered to be “modest “ clothing covering himself from view .

Vil is an extremely interesting character coupled with his ob design being my favorite i love this part of his design .

It’s been a while since I’ve drawn vil and I missed it

WIP Tag Game Fill

I was tagged for some Sunday sentences by @lttrsfrmlnrrgby and a Last Line Challenge by @bluemaskedkarma, so y'all can have,,,,many sentences lmao. These are from my @codywanfirstkissbingo fill for the making out square, also known as the omegaverse wedding fic 😌😌

"Dude, are you checking fucking rugby scores on your phone right now?" Rex hisses under his breath, quietly enough not to draw attention to themselves. Cody glances sidelong at his brother and shrugs, unashamed. This wedding has been dull as shit so far, and they'd only had to attend the reception. The speeches had all been incredibly scripted and unremarkable, without even any real teasing or embarrassing anecdotes for entertainment (and Cody can hazard a few guesses why, considering the stern-looking old man that seems to be lording over the whole event and stared down anyone that happened to be holding the microphone at any given moment), and the food is…well. Cody's sure it was expensive. Their family takes up most of one table just by themselves, thankfully—he can't even imagine the sort of mind-numbing bullshit most of the guests here are willing to talk about—but even his brothers aren't enough to change the fact that he feels like he's watching paint dry. Especially when they've all been threatened into "good behavior". "If I get any more bored," he mutters back, "I might actually let Buir set me up with an alpha just for something to do." Rex scowls, his entire face screwing up with disgust. "Gross, man," he grumbles. He peers over at Cody's phone where Cody's holding it half-hidden under the table. "Who's winning?"

Hang in there Cody, don't worry, this wedding is about to get a whole lot more interesting and a whole lot more fun for you 😏😏

No pressure tags (for either Sunday sentences or last lines, whichever you wanna do) to @happybean17, @loverboy-havocboy, @snowywinterevenings, @raphaerolo, and @smoosey <3

evil art style challenge, part 2! Part 1

First Line Challenge

Big thanks to @northstarfan for tagging me in the first line challenge! ❤️

So, um, tiny detail, but I don’t know the rules of the first line challenge. Therefore, I’ll make my own rules to choose a story at random and share the first few lines:

The siren always seems to sound just before daybreak.

Maybe because that’s when particulates in the planet’s atmosphere coalesce. At least in autumn, and it’s been autumn for almost three weeks — five weeks to go — which means the piercing whine yanks Una out of sleep, bedsheets thrown aside, her feet landing on the wood-plank floor before her eyes even open.

“Go. I’m right behind you.” Seven is slower, ocular implant glitches worse when her rest is interrupted like this, human biology nourished by sleep but xB technology still hungry for a regeneration alcove.

Even after all these years.

That’s from The Melody of You (and Me), a T-rated Una Chin-Riley x Seven of Nine one-shot.

Tagging without pressure (or knowledge of the actual rules of the game) — @starrybouquet, @deadheaddaisy, @elephant-in-the-pride-parade, @cnroth, @theredheadedcaptain, @fiadorable, @enterprise-come-in, @emilie786, @pc-corner, @grissomesque, @procrastinatorproject, @regionalpancake, @lorcaswhisky, @caladeniablue, @cicaklah, @divinemissem13, @coffee-in-that-nebula and anyone else who wants to play.

Okay so I just noticed that the kissing scene in challengers literally just tells the whole story

[doodleodds]

Happy Valentines, Akira. Happy Valentines, Asshole.

If you can’t read what Akechi’s secondary inner-dialogue says cause I obscured it too much behind his regular dialogue, here’s a transcription in panel order: Hello, you fucking- Ah- Hello, Akira! Fuck off, why should I tell you- Just a soda- there’s a new flavor.

I don’t want your shitty gift. Oh- haha! You’re so sweet.

I hope I choke. They’re lovely, thank you.

Like hell. Likewise. There’s no way it’s just a coincidence. Still though, it’s a funny coincidence.

[merlyn-bane]

Last Line Challenge

Rules: in a new post, show the last line you wrote (or drew) and tag as many people as there are words (or as many as you feel like).

I got reverse-reverse-unoed by @bluemaskedkarma so y'all can have another line 😁😁 this one is from another of my @codywanfirstkissbingo fills, this one for corner of the mouth kiss.

The increasing urgency in his commander's tone ratchets up the beat of Obi-Wan's heart and breaks it at the same time. He should look away, break eye contact, he needs to, but he—can't. He can't.

*innocent whistling*
