I finally feel like starting on my personal speculative biology project again!! Been putting it off for wayyyyyyyyyyyy too long :/

Had some inspiration and hopefully I can keep it, so I can continue 🤞

This was the one I had designed for me a year or so back by the incredibly talented @yellosnacc :D

Wanted to try my hand at drawing it out, and to practice with it as well since I'm hoping to make many more creatures! C:

P.S. go look at yellosnacc's artwork and world building right now!! It's literally so awesome!!! c:

HAPPENING THIS YEAR (will be updating)

- Internship for 6months - Completion of Radiomics Projects - GRE and Masters Applications - starting my Master's Degree 🤞🤞

GOALS

There are a lot of posts I have bookmarked but not interacted with, and many people on here I haven't spoken to in a while, I just need to find a right pocket of time in a week to allocate that time to, and I'm... still looking.

[week 0/52]

[sleptwithinthesun]

a personal (and very extremely late) fill for the🤞and 🥰 prompts on the spring prompts list, written for t/im d/rake from d/c c/omics. yes, i'm aware it's summer. however, i started this fic over two years ago and it needs to be done.

2K words, next part of the t/imber college au. hope you like it!!

"Look at me for a second?" Bernard asks, tapping the eraser end of his pencil against his notebook a couple of times, just to ensure that he has Tim's attention. It lands just to the right of his half-finished sketch of his roommate, who's typing a lab report up on his laptop on the other side of the library table. 

Tim complies, glancing up and making brief eye contact to show Bernard the slowly-emerging freckles scattered over his cheeks and the ever-present, bruise-like bags under his eyes. They've been getting worse lately, probably due to the arrival of the spring season and its various allergens, even though Tim started taking Benadryl towards the beginning of March. They're now a week into April, with allergy season in full swing.

Bernard's gaze sweeps over Tim's face, and then he squints down at his drawing. After a moment of deliberation, he goes back over Tim's lash line and carefully shades a touch lower and darker than he was previously. "Thanks." 

"No problem," Tim replies, coughing quietly into a fist a second later. It sounds chesty, same as it has been for the past few weeks, and Tim just keeps going, like someone's scratching at his lungs. Which, to be fair, is probably how he feels about the whole thing. He's been getting worse at night recently, waking both himself and Bernard up at early hours in the morning with coughing fits. 

There's not much either of them can do about it, though, and Bernard's not been sleeping well, anyway. Not to any fault of Tim; he's just been… wondering. About some things. Regarding Tim, sure, but not because of him. Nevertheless, he's been staying up with him until his roommate manages to fall back asleep congested snores emanating from his side of the dorm. 

Not for the first time since they'd arrived at the library, Tim suddenly drops his chin towards his chest, eyes pinching shut tightly before his shoulders give a minuscule jerk forwards. He barely manages a shallow inhale before the motion repeats twice more, and then blinks a few times, sniffling quietly into his sweatshirt sleeve. Also not for the first time, Bernard murmurs, "Bless you."

"Ugh, sorry, I don't think I'm dohh—" He cuts himself off with another silent double, and then a third pair for good measure. "Oh, fuck me," Tim mutters, a bit breathless. 

"Christ, bless you times... how many even was that, seven total? They're so quiet; it's hard to tell." Tim nods to confirm the number, his eyes bleary from sneezing as he rubs a knuckle against the side of his nose to quell the remaining itch instead of responding verbally. "Bless you times seven. Why do you sneeze like that, anyway?" 

Tim blinks at him, clearly confused. "Like what?"

"Like… you're completely stifling to the point where they're silent." Bernard fumbles to explain, trying to find the right words without sounding insane. "I don't know anyone who can do that without using their hands or something. It's kind of... uh, impressive, to be honest, but can I ask, why do you sneeze that way? Is there a reason, or is it just...?"

"I don't know," Tim says, then shrugs. "I never really thought about it. It's polite, I guess, to make them quieter. Doesn't bother anyone else."

And Bernard-of-several-months-ago would have simply been content to have even gotten an answer out of Tim in the first place, would have accepted his word without a second thought. But Bernard-of-now can see the little flicker in Tim's eye, the one that means he's lying to him, which makes no sense, because what does Tim have to lie about?

It's a sneeze. There's no backstory to it, as far as Bernard is aware of. It's simple, it's thoughtless, it's inherent. Sure, he knows that people can hold back their sneezes if needed, but at it's base, it's a reaction, and one that's hard to control. The level to which Tim can manipulate his own, though, speaks to something far more complicated than Bernard can even begin to form connotations to.

For now, he has to let it go. Everything about Tim is a mystery, and the code to deciphering him is written between the lines of Dick's offering of his and Jason's phone numbers. So, unless Bernard texts one of them to ask why Tim sneezes weirdly, which is quite possibly the most bizarre question he could even raise, he's on his own.

Don't let it be said that Bernard Dowd doesn't love a challenge.

-

Over the remainder of the week, Bernard keeps an eye on Tim as if he's a sentry assigned to stand guard over him. He does feel weird about it—almost stalkerish, which, honestly and a bit embarrassingly, isn't exactly new to him—but it's not like Bernard's trying to learn anything he didn't already know about Tim's personal life. He lives in the same room as Tim, for crying out loud. Objectively, he's not doing anything wrong. At least, that's how Bernard justifies it to himself.

He's aware that he's being all Bernard about it, looking too deeply into it when, in reality, it's probably nothing more than Tim preferring not to draw attention to himself. At the same time, Bernard can't help but feel as if there's something more to it. After all, Tim decided to hide the fact that he was missing a whole-ass organ for a semester; he truly wouldn't put it past Tim to somehow have a buried trauma about sneezing. It would only make sense for him.

To be perfectly honest, though, Tim is boring.

Bernard didn't notice it in their fall semester, when Tim was being avoidant for the most part and didn't trust Bernard enough to reveal anything about his personal life. Apparently, he wasn't missing out. Tim studies more than anything, and even when he's not studying, he's doing homework or reading or something equally uninteresting. It makes his observation of his roommate very dry.

Until the moment where he invites Tim to sit outside.

They're moving through the quad together, Tim having just attended his linguistics class and heading into a free period while Bernard's done with classes for the day. The April weather is gorgeous, with a nice breeze cutting through the heat of the day. It's so nice, in fact, that Bernard asks—

"Want to stay outside for a bit?"

Tim's steps pause for a moment, hesitating. "Why?"

Bernard can barely stop himself from staring in shock at him. Sure, he grew up in the city, but he spent every moment that he could in the park. "it's... nice?" he ventures. "Plus, you could use more sun."

"First, rude. Second, if you insist." Tim sighs, glancing around for a place to sit. "As long as we're not directly in the sunlight."

Bernard rolls his eyes. "Sure, whatever. Vampire."

Tim scoffs at him, following Bernard as they move to take a seat in the shade underneath a tree. He only seems vaguely annoyed, meaning that he does actually care, at least a little bit. They're not at the point yet where Tim's comfortable being jokingly annoyed or mad with Bernard, since Bernard did it to Tim once and ended up sending Tim into a spiral for the next day over whether he was actually upset.

So. His annoyance here is at least vaguely interesting.

"hn'x! ngt! hnk'tt!"

"Bless you," Bernard murmurs. Tim shakes his head and immediately goes to sneeze again, sitting up with his head tipped back slightly, eyes half-shut, mouth partly open as his breath hitches quietly.

"hh...hi'h? hHhh—" He's trying to hold it back and is failing miserably. "—hk't! hxxt! hn'gt! h'hHn'gt-sh!"

"Bless you."

"Why'd you want to be out here?" Tim asks, voice nasal. His head immediately bobs down toward his chest again, nose pressed into the crook between his thumb and pointer finger to at least give himself a semblance of modesty. This set is even more numerous than the first, each sneeze coming in rapid succession.

Bernard sits up straighter in alarm. "Uh... exactly how allergic are you to pollen?"

Tim's response is another rapid set of sneezes.

"You need to get better at putting your foot down," exclaims Bernard, grabbing Tim by his free wrist and hauling him upward as Tim sneezes again and again, each perfectly stifled and barely making any sound. The only reason, Bernard reflects, that he can hear them is because Tim's sneezing too much to fully have control.

"You're—gxt'sh!—telling me," Tim gasps out. Mockingly, he attempts to add, "You could use more su'h'nxt! hxt'ch!"

"Okay, Sneezy, let's get back to the very climate-controlled indoors," says Bernard, hastily dragging him toward the building.

-

Tim's lying down on his bed when Bernard walks into their dorm, three days after the incident, absently staring up at the ceiling. There's nothing taped up there—Bernard checked.

"You okay?"

"Fine," replies Tim. "Just... thinking."

Bernard sets his backpack down next to his bed, placing the binder in his hands down on top of his comforter to ensure he doesn't forget about the homework in it. "Anything in particular?"

Tim shrugs, which is his way of saying Yes, but I don't want to talk about it. Bernard had given up on trying to interpret all of Tim's nonverbal signals on his own and reached out to Dick the day after Tim's allergy attack; Dick had informed him that reading Tim was like learning a new language. He wasn't very communicative at best, even with members of his own family, and it took Dick years to figure everything out. Jason is still struggling, apparently, which Dick attributes to Jason being in college while Tim was adjusting to living with the Waynes. He's gradually been passing tips onto Bernard, trying to make his living experience a tad easier.

Uncertainly, he walks over to Tim's side of the room, stopping just short of sitting on the bed with his roommate. Looming over him feels like an equally terrible option, and Bernard just stands there for an awkward moment.

"This is a little creepy."

"You're one to talk," Bernard says before having the chance to properly filter himself. He's trying to get Tim to open up, here.

Tim huffs out a laugh, then sniffles quietly. "Just sit down."

Bernard does. Neither of them say anything for a long minute, with the silence frequently broken by Tim's soft sniffles as he continues fighting off the pollen in the air.

"You know you can sneeze, right?" he blurts out. Tim doesn't blink. "Like, around me. I don't mind, I promise."

When Tim doesn't respond, Bernard keeps rambling. "It's just that, every single time I've seen you sneeze you're stifling. No matter what. Even if you're alone in the room, you don't make any noise, and, like, it's worrying me. It's not, um, normal. Not that you're not normal, obviously, but—"

"Bernard."

"Yeah?"

"Shut up."

Bernard rolls his head to look at Tim. His roommate is still looking at the ceiling instead of at him, but he's talking.

"I was..." He pauses, starts over. "My parents very much believed in the adage of children being seen and not heard. To them, my silence wasn't an expectation, it was a strict necessity for me."

"Tim..."

"For whatever reason, they included normal bodily functions in that." Tim scoffs, but it's devoid of any feeling, as if he's making the noise only because he's expected to show disapproval toward his parents. "Coughing, sneezing, anything like that was taboo. So, I learned to keep quiet."

"You know that's not okay, right?"

"I've heard that nearly a thousand times from Dick and Jason." Now, he turns to face Bernard. "I'm aware."

Bernard sighs. "Do you believe it?"

A moment of silence. Three different emotions pass over Tim's face, too quickly for Bernard to parse through them all, but something sad is certainly there. "I'm working on that," he says eventually.

"That's good," replies Bernard, and they fall back into silence before Tim sneezes adorably, much like a baby kitten.

"hk'sh'iew!"

"Oh my God."

"Shut up!"

I'm officially opening the commissions, yayyy ! 🥳🥰

But since I always had weird requests before, I have to put disclaimers that should be OBVIOUS and NORMAL for everyone :

• I don't draw anyone - who isn't the person requesting - without their consent. I can't, that's all. It's not legal to ask for someone else's portrait without the person's consent, even if it's for a birthday or a gift and you want to keep the surprise or whatever— I won't do it.

• And another more than obvious remark : I DON'T DRAW CHILDREN. LET ALONE WITHOUT THEIR PARENT'S CONSENT. OKAY ? Okay.

• Then, there's something you'll have to know and might/must know by now, I suffer from chronic migraine. It's also the whole point of this, I can't find a job adapted for my illness or keep one if I could. This is the only I found to get a bit more independent and help my family financially (this is not charity, I just want to be useful), hence why I really hope it would work and it will be my pleasure to answer your request 💙 just know that sometimes it can happen that I get a bit slow down by the migraines but I'm still very professional and focused for y'all 🥰

• I will be using PayPal for a safe payment, for me but for you as well ! I draw digitally and I'm from France so I find it easier to send to the file of your drawing rather than printing them and mailing them. At least you'll have the original file so you can do whatever you want with your requested art !🤸💫

• The cost. I checked it with someone who knows my art and how commissions work. Since I do realistic art style and tbh, I still need money lol I chose those prices but as you see it's still approximative, it's something I can check with you and your kind of request.

I will make a pic for you to see it clearer, for now I can put them here :

||Bust/Headshot (not coloured) - 10/15 USD~EUR||

||Bust/Headshot (coloured) - 20/25 USD~EUR||

||Half Body (not coloured) - 30/35 USD~EUR||

||Half Body (coloured) - 50/60 USD~EUR||

||Full Body (not coloured) - 50/55 USD~EUR||

||Full Body (coloured) - 70/80 USD~EUR||

• I don't do nsfw.

• I don't do extreme gore.

• I reserve myself the right to refuse a request for a reason that is mine.

I'm also on discord if it's safer and easier to speak there 🩷

Summoning every Dr Who fans, Marvel fans, DC fans, Sheen/Tennant fans 🙇

I really hope it works. Like I said, it's not for charity and I don't ask much ♥️ But I'm not lying either, my situation is kinda stressful and frustrating. I'm 24, can't keep a job because of my chronic illness I have since I'm born (I'm followed by a neurologist for 5 years now, hoping it'll get better 🤞) and I crave some independence as much as I crave to feel useful and participate with my small family's regular expenses. Not to mention that I'd love to have a computer and a graphic tablet one day to improve my art, so you know where your money goes.

Love y'all.

I don't expect much, I'd just like to make my passion my job as it seems to be the only solution I have, and I'm not complaining ! 🥰

If you read it all, lmao you're the bravest—

[synonemous]

well. it sure has been a while, huh?

I've written and rewritten this post so many times, but as the year is drawing to a close, I figured it was time.

I want to apologise for more or less falling off the face of the planet last year, and right after I published what I'm sure was at least a slightly concerning post. I won't bother you all with the nit and grit of everything that's happened, but here, have a tl;dr under the cut.

the long and short of it is that early last year, I received the very cheerful news that I have reoccurring ovarian cysts. while those aren't ideal, they were not the problem. the one that had made itself well at home was, however. in the summer of last year, I had that cyst as well as an ovary removed for my own safety. (this is your regular reminder to get yourself checked out regularly, no matter what "equipment" you have.)

now, the cyst wasn't cancerous, but the surgery put me out of physical commission for a good couple of months. that, coupled with the potential health scare that I'd been living with before the surgery itself, meant that I wasn't doing great creatively. I've basically been struggling with burnout since the start of 2023, and while I'm slowly getting back to writing, it's taking a while, and will continue to take a while. that's just recovery for you.

I have been, in the wake of the surgery and completely unrelated to it, dealing with other health issues as well. and it's been frustrating because it's taken me several doctors to even find someone that took me seriously. that has also not helped me creatively. with everything that's been going on, I've barely had any spoons left over to engage in fandom or social media, which has led to a lot of messages piling up and my guilt just getting steadily worse as a result. please know that I haven't been ignoring any of your messages or comments or reviews, I just have not been in the headspace to answer them. I am trying to be better at it, but that is also going to take me a while. I hope you can forgive me.

I hope that I will get some answers in 2025, including a diagnosis, so I can actually move forward with my life. cross your fingers and toes for me. I just may need it.

but yeah, as far as the actual the actual tl;dr goes: I've been burned out mentally and creatively thanks to Life™ and Health Issues™, but I'm hoping things will turn around soon. 🤞

[cassiaratheslytherpuff]

james lives AU prongsfoot bingo pls? 🥺❤

Thank you for asking! This is one I've been working on recently and hope to finish at some point🤞

It's about what might happen if, instead of dying, when Voldemort came that Halloween, James was temporarily separated from his body and just had to watch what happened without being able to interact or do anything. (Which is probably not good, I think it was supposed to be a fluffy prompt and I made it super-angsty)

November 7th 1982 The Janus Thickey Ward is always quieter than James feels it should be. They moved him here after two months on Spell Damage, and he’s still not used to it after almost a year. He sits on the bed where his body rests and tries to figure out how long he’s been gone this time. It’s happening more often now – and for longer each time. He blacks out, loses time, and wakes up beside his body. It's the only time he comes back to the hospital. The rest of the time he spends with Harry or Sirius, though every moment breaks his heart a little more. When he manages to get back in his body, he’s going to murder everyone responsible for him having to know how long it took Harry to realise no-one was going to come when he cried, to curse them with the pain he felt when he watched his son quiet his own sobs and curl up on himself. James hasn’t heard him cry since, and it breaks his heart with every passing day. He’s going to make them scream for the way he felt watching Sirius turn into Padfoot to howl with grief, because his human voice was too ruined by screaming. He’s going to make them scream for how James sobbed when he realised Sirius wasn’t coming back. He’d been the dog for six months now, and James desperately misses the sound of his voice. Misses how he used to talk to James and Harry to keep sane in his cell. Because James did hear, even though Sirius thought he didn't. James goes to stand from the bed, and for the first time in a year he feels resistance as he does. He looks down at his own face and has to let himself hope. Because that’s the way his existence goes. He watches the people he loves suffer, he mourns Lily, and he forces himself to hope. Forces himself to keep trying, because if he gives up – he can’t give up. So, he has to bear the disappointment when it doesn’t work. He lies down in bed, letting his form line up perfectly with his body. He makes himself focus, matches his breathing with that of his body’s. Tries to feel the sheets under his body, or imagine an itch on his nose. A tiredness beyond words washes over him and he lets it, lets it pull him down until he knows he’ll pass out again if he lets it pull him deeper. And then he strains. He forces his eyes open, forces his chest to draw breath. The tiredness doesn’t abate, and he sighs. He wills himself to Harry’s side, but he stays put. Confused, he sit’s up, fighting the exhaustion. But something is different. He can feel the bed as he braces against it to sit. He hurts. Because his body hurts. And when he looks down at the bed, nothing’s there. An alarm goes off, and in seconds the Healer that checks in on him most days comes rushing through the doors. “Mr. Potter,” he says, eyes wide. “You’re awake.”

look what came in!! after 2 years of waiting I finally have her most recent art book 🥲

it's a bit thinner than I was expecting but overall the quality is nice. however if you own noche there's not many artworks in this one that aren't in that one, as this is only select official and promotional artworks rather than any concept art or her Instagram artworks (I was hoping some of her Instagram DGM drawings would be in this one but sadly not 😔). there's also 2 double page spreads (4 pages total) of an interview with her and a ton of Koro photos.

I was able to find a secondhand copy on mandarake for 4500¥ (about $30) meanwhile it was 3080¥ (around $21) at the exhibit when they were happening. there's several on JP secondhand shops like mercari that are going for 7000-8500¥ but I'm glad I didn't pay that 😩

overall, I'm glad I got it! it's a nice, slim copy of her newer artworks with several older ones as well. I would not pay more than 6000¥ for this, though- I had to wait months before a listing under 6000¥ popped up. if you don't have noche I'd recommend that 110% more, though. it has an English published version- you can find copies for less than $15 on ebay. it's also much bigger than this art book with many more full page spreads.

I'll still hold out hope for a compilation of her Instagram art and sketches, though 🤞

p.s. having Nea and Mana's names reflected like this felt like a punch in the gut 🥲

[livingfictional]

Heyyyy, id love a baldurs gate and a red dead redemption matchup! (If i can select two if not simoly bg3 is fine!)

This is gonna be messy because i do not exist to myself and its really hard to describe myself but i digress!.

I am a trans man. I have a bleached blonde mullet with the shaved sides that are my natural hair colour which is brown, i have grey eyes with central heterochromia I think its what its called? I have a ring of green in my eye to accompany the grey. Im 5’7, i dress really well and i love to dress up though my style varies from streetwear to 3000 year old vampire. Im pretty skinny, got a slim waist🤞🤞

I am funny, love sarcasm, bullying my friends is my love language (when appropriate), in general my love languages are quality time and physical touch. Im very adaptable i love hiking as much as i love staying indoors and watching a movie. Interesting fast is that i cannot watch a movie alone i do not have the attention span for that i need someone else with me or something to do with my hands thats why i prefer videogames. Ill really do not care what people think about me unless its someone it’s someone close to me. Im protective of people i love in a “put myself between the danger and the loved one in case this goes south” way. I am extremely loyal but it takes a while to earn that partly because I’ve encountered a ton of horrible people (had like 3 different stalkers follow me home). I give great advice even though I don’t follow it. I feel all of my emotions deeply which kinda sucks because i grew up with an angry man in my house so thats the most prominent one but i am a lot better at handling that now than i used to. I am also quite competitive unless its someone i love then im alright with losing. I also love arguing as a joke and making up fake scenarios with my friends i think thats so fun.

For hobbies i do a lot but im not perfect in anything; cosplay, acting, sowing, rollerblading, ice skating, skateboarding, drawing, singing, dancing, baking, cooking, embroidery, prop making, video games, shows, swimming

This is a lot and messy so sorry about that🙏 i hope it makes enough sense😭

I am a gay man so id like to be matched with guys🫶🫶

Hiiii, don’t worry it does make sense! Hope you like it!

I match you up with…Halsin!

I feel like you guys would get along so well.

Deep inside, we know that Halsin is quite a playful guy, he’d play along with your teasing and sarcasm!

Knows of your upbringing, he’s the exact opposite of men you encountered growing up. He’ll help you with your emotions, there’s nothing wrong with being emotional! Will always listen and is ready to help or give advice. He just wants you to be happy.

You seem to have got a lot of hobbies, he’s more than happy to try some of them if you’d like to do that! Loves spending quality time with you.

I match you up with… Sean!

He’s a bit dumb, but he means well, deep inside.

Will make conscious effort to lower his voice, avoid yelling around you. He’s not angry, never, he’s just a tad loud with poor social awareness.

Will probably bully you back, that would be his love language too haha.

He feels honored that you put your trust in him, he’d never rush or push you, just happy that you’re there with him.

Would never let you put yourself in harm’s way, he wants to be the one to protect you and make you feel safe.

He is not great with his emotions either, quite oblivious, but will try his best to understand you and what you’re feeling.

[perhaps-in-anotherdream]

Might be unpopular opinion but I miss a more sweeter CG for Victor and MC •́⁠ ⁠ ⁠‿⁠ ⁠,⁠•̀. While the spicy CGs are certainly enjoyable, when they're too much, they feel a bit numb... When do you think PG will give us a more sweeter CG again Anika?

yeah for sure, i totally feel you haha. i definitely miss the wholesome and pure fluff card arts— (⁠｡⁠•́⁠︿⁠•̀⁠｡⁠)

at the same time, i can also see why PG has been going pretty hard on the risqué card arts this year cause hello sex sells LOL – their production team is killing two birds with one stone with this approach:

(a) the writing is as brilliant as always, with just the right balance of wholesomeness and spice so that it can keep the older players satisfied (staring HARD at Victor’s Qixi card CAUSE THE UNCALLED FOR ANGST HELLO!?!?)

(b) while the provoking card arts are drawing attention of more people, and even bringing new blood as well (eyeing the massive boost in the July revenue). being in the market for over 5 years and having to compete with the fairly new games - they actually need this boost :>

to be honest though, i was totally expecting wholesome CGs for the Qixi event haha. so Victor’s being the sole different one did take me aback, but again i can see why LOL the main money making man sells lmao nonetheless, i’m deliberately avoiding the CN analysts’ posts as i haven’t “read” read his date yet and have only skimmed through - but i can tell you it’s anything but spicy lmao the masterful blend of wholesome angst. so, see the pattern here? 😂

regardless, i’m definitely waiting for wholesome and loving CGs. the chapter event is in September - so while i’m not hoping for wholesome CGs given the current happenings in the main story, i am crossing fingers for angsty loving CGs LOL. Victor had the top-up for last chapter rotation, so he probably won’t be getting top-ups this time. but the Halloween event in October is a probability (this one’s gonna be AU for sure), so fingers crossed for wholesome top-up card arts- 🤞🥺❤️

hi I'm alive just busy bc holidays!

some minor blog updates for those who care:

I'm trying, generally speaking, to pivot more towards original posts again instead of using this as a reblog repository.

this blog is very old (going on 14 years!) and I used to be pretty active in my fandoms on here before the porn ban. when I came back, I lost a little over 50% of my followers due to my inactivity, with a good portion of the rest being dead blogs at this juncture. my blog was never "big" in any fandom I participated in, but I do miss the interaction with people.

I didn't really know how to get back in the swing of "normal posting," so I fell into using this blog as a repository because that was easier. there isn't anything wrong with that, ofc, but that was never the point of this blog. I have side blogs for that purpose that I'll probably revive soon instead.

that doesn't mean I won't reblog random things ever again on here, but I'll probably taper them down to more tailored things. stuff like fandom related posts or art refs/inspo rather than straight up memes 24/7. tho don't be surprised if a few slip through anyway. I'm not made of stone! 😭

this blog has, and always will be, focused around my interests. I don't post anything remotely political and intend to keep it that way. I will also say, I'm not very big about discussing my real life details in general; I am extremely private online and at most there might be vague hints at what I do for a living, but I keep my online persona segregated from real life as much as possible. that's more an FYI than anything else, just so any followers know what not to expect when I get back into "normal posting!"

so what's "normal posting" mean for me, then?

mostly discussion, theory crafting, or meta posts revolving around my fandoms, mostly Capcom titles, so I hope y'all can enjoy those as they come. I may also post the occasional informative post, mostly dealing with proper op sec for the web, among other things, as that's an interest of mine. if that ain't what you're here for, no worries. o7

but regarding planned post content, I'm working on a huge set of meta posts (yes, plural) analyzing vava/vile from megaman x, so any megaman followers, keep ur eyes peeled for that.

I've also been meaning to finish some drawings too so I'll hopefully be posting smth sometime soon. if you're more interested in my art, you can follow my art blog @deadawake!

lastly, been trying to finish fanfics that I've had languishing in my files. again, mostly megaman related, but I do have an RE fic rotting away in there somewhere. maybe I'll post that, too.

that's it! I guess you can think of this as a "new year's resolution" post! we'll see how successful I am 🤞

I hope y'all have a safe and happy holiday season! o/ see you soon!

Definitely not a question but I wanna fan girl here.

OMGGGGG I heard Yoshi-P is a huge fan of Tifa? LMAOOOOO no wonder that private chat convo example between Cloud flirting with Tifa existed on FF14. There's a reason I liked this guy ahahaha, he's a no nonsense type I see, straight to business. Imagine if Yoshi-P produced part 3 OMFG, that guy will definitely not hold back on those two like he didn't with Clive and Jill (yeah yeah I know it's unlikely but I'm willing to sell my soul for it to happen just as long as they're not holding back on Cloti because I'm so sick and tired of it already, I'm so greedy and pissed to a point that I'd want to see the most epic marriage event for Cloti lol, spice it up more to a ����💯💯💯💯💯💯!!!!!!!). Im not asking for half but MORE for Cloud and Tifa's lifestream and HW event ...and more!!! 😂 🥹🙏🤞and I don't care lol I'm gonna hope part 3 becomes rated M!!!!!!!

As you can see I'm shamelessly desperate at this point lol. Pls don't judge me ahahaha (._.) ( l: ) ( .-. ) ( :l ) (._.) ↻

He is, and has added so many parallels to them in ffxvi it's not even funny. I lost count 🤣

Honestly, I can't see Nomura and co upping the rating just for a sex scene.

Sex falls under "suggestive themes" and this is what ERSB has to say about it: Mild provocative references or materials.

Very helpful 😑

And the M rating isn't much clearer. I guess it comes down to the rating board at the time whether something will pass or not. I'd assume Remake is gonna stay T because they wanna grab the teen market and then ffxvi will draw in the older teens which is what SE had planned by making Remake a bridge between old and new, with XVI being the first new numbered title for the next generation of FF gamers.

As someone playing both, I gotta say they nailed it. If I only played remake I'd wanna play more FF and then get into XVI and maybe see what the older games are like.

As for the hw scene, we've seen how the devs can handle an outdoor romantic event despite all the years of idiots going off about "Cloud fucked Tifa on some rocks hurpaderp" so I expect we'll get some tasteful avoidance angles of long grasses and clasped hands, but more than enough to imply Cloud and Tifa convey their feelings without words 🤭

Today was interesting. It was a typical Tuesday, and I have my therapy appointments on Tuesdays! I mostly talked about how I am doing a lot of "healing inner child" work. I got to tell her about the recent Lego sets I have built, and my plans for future fun activities!

I really want to get back into watercolor, drawing, writing, and painting again. I have really been wanting to be creative again. I also would be lying if I didn't mention that I want to put together more Lego sets. I tried to talk my husband into bringing me to the Lego store tomorrow just to look. I know the sets can be expensive but maybe.... Just maybe I can talk him into buying me a cheap set. 🤞

Doing these Lego sets has been extremely healing for me. I enjoy sitting and building. I even have been scouting used Legos by the pound on eBay and Facebook market place hoping to find a super awesome deal. I'm not sure why I am so in love with putting plastic blocks together. When I was younger I had a hand-me-down set that was missing some pieces. It also had a little beach resort set up with surfers and boats and everything! As I got older though, Legos have gotten so much cooler! I always mentioned wanting to do one of their art sets or botanicals and I was lucky to get a couple for Christmas. I absolutely beamed when I opened the gifts. It was definitely the highlight gift this year. I loved it so much my mom got me more for my birthday.

I think now that I'm working on myself so heavily, and life has seemed to slow down for me, I realize now how I was forced to grow up way too quickly. I can use this time now, to catch up on all the stuff I missed out on because I had to mature so fast to deal with life.

I'm really feeling good about things. I think I'm doing so well.

You were 💯% correct about being a Yapper, but I'm taking it a step farther and saying that you are a Certified Gold Yapper!!!! 🥇🏆💛🌟

It's just so fun to scroll through your blog and read all your thoughts about things, even if these things sometimes aren't fun things to talk about 😔

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Next, I 💜 how we also recently became moots on the ol' Bird App!!!!!! :D 🐦 <3 (It was about damn time lol)

I positively LOVED that you sent me a message on there about Peggy Olson's birthday (May 25th!!) as this:

1). Gave me an excuse to blab all about Peggy for a bit 🥰 and

2). Shows how much you pay attention to the people you care about!!!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

You continue to SLAY at making art, especially your F1 drawings!!!! 🏎️🏁

...There's a reason why the Soda Cap Collection post has SO MANY NOTES!!!!!!!! 👩‍🎨🎨🖌️🖼️

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

On a totally random note, here are some other things that almost immediately make me think about you ☺️ :

The color orange 🧡

Small, fluffy dogs 🐶

Greenwich Village (even if that's not where you live!!) 🏙️

The beach, but like beaches on the East Coast that get cold and have no visitors in the winter time...this is simply reflection of how you change your mood and aren't afraid to show it, even if others might not like a colder or stormier version of you 🌊

Da Bills!! 🦬

The song "Short People" by Randy Newman (short people unite!!! 💪) 🎶

The Muppets!! 🎭

Sapphires and also the entire month of September 💎

Anyway...!!

I just think it's neat how two years ago, I didn't know you at all (😢) and ✨now✨ I randomly find your influence in various places wherever I go!!! 🤩🔥💯💞

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Last but certainly not least:

Your dry sense of humor is hella underrated!!! 😩

People should appreciate your jokes more, for real, for real 😤

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

And speaking of appreciation 😌:

In conclusion, I appreciate (💜!!!) how you take things seriously and see situations for what they are while also keeping an open mind and putting thought towards why things are the way that they are. This is Critical Thinking at its finest!!!!!! :D

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I hope that the rest of your week goes as good as it can!! 🤞🍀🕊️

As the President of the Lesbian's for Josh Allen Club, you deserve to always have excellent weeks!!!! 🤩🥳🔥💯💖

Mutuals send me a ❣️ and I'll say something nice about you ☺️

hello! this is a quick intro post for my tumblr! it hasn’t been announced on my TikTok yet because i wanna wait until all my personal bizz is over with to connect the accts, which will hopefully be soon! 😅

(very long post so its going under a cut!)

in the meantime, hello! i’m Scrimbly, any alternative of that name is chill to use for me, i use he/they pronouns interchangeably or exclusively- either is good 👍

my account focuses on FNAF stuff- particularly FNAF Security Breach and more specifically the Daycare Attendant <3

you can find funny vids and drawings on my TikTok, and on here i’m gonna focus on posting full artworks so that anyone who wants to can see them in a more direct way than me recording them on my phone in a >30 sec vid

(i dont have anything posted yet bc i dont have wifi and therefore no way to get files from my pc to my phone, which will hopefully be resolved soon 🤞)

im hoping itll be easier to post updates and such here since it’s less algorithm based than TikTok and other social medias- plus its the only social media i’m really comfortable with- since i’ve been using it for the past 5 years or so

ALSO: i have an AU fic in the works! (slightly hiatus rn bc i dont have internet on my pc or laptop, which i need to use google docs 🥲) It’s called The Eternal Night, i havent revealed pretty much anything about it yet, because i want it to be practically spoiler-less until i start posting it, so that suspense can build as the chapters are released 👀

the reason it’s taking me so long to post the fic is bc i want to be pretty much finished with at least the first arc before i post it so that i don’t lose motivation 😅 i have a problem with losing motivation for a project after i start to show it to people, so pushing myself to finish it before posting anything is helping me work on it!

sorry for the dump of info, i’ll redo this post eventually and have everything more organized and such, probably when i can do it on desktop, regardless- thanks for reading this far! i’m super excited to keep posting and making more content in the future!

Edit: ofc i forgot until i posted it- but my inbox should be open, feel free to send some asks! i don’t bite lol :)
