Ef's moment of respite at the bottom of the Mariana Trench from amazing story Falling Falling Stars by @not-poignant
#new#my art#I planned a lot of things#but now I am kinda numb emotionally#cause sister's nearly divorce crises and her husband being my best coworker#and me not managing my talks in my head lol#soooo I don't think I will draw anything for a long time#rip plans but life always happens#and maybe it a good thing#anyways#oh how I enjoyed drawing this one!#I've never drew anything bigger than like 2k pixels#and this one was meant to be printed on A3+#and the first time I did the right size for it I was like WHAT? DO? YOU? MEAN?#when I am at 100% it's only one rock at my whole screen#but then I figured out that like... I can draw details ten times moooooore#spending 8hours on one roooock!!!#MORE SPACE#and I dont know shit about proffesional stuff with exposition and placement and shadows and colours#so details everywhere as I go#and I love to think that the portal to the lake with antlers bars is portal to Augus' lake#and I wanted water snails and knitted jelly fish and kinda blanket but water themed so it's a big algue piece#and it just piled up#and the colours feel was the most relaxing thing to look at all the time#yeah#really proud of this one

it's really a shame I have to sell 40+ of my life hours every week for poverty wages instead of spending all my time and energy on dozens of creative and technical pursuits with unlimited resources
#nerd alert#lets see if i can list all the hobbies i wish i could be doing instead of working#drawing. both traditional and digital. painting mostly acrylic but id like to get good at watercolors. drawing/writing comics#writing in general. fiction nonfiction poetry lyrics whatever. composing music. music production. singing. practicing piano and guitar#performing someday maybe!#sculpting too. i always forget bc i never do it bc i am never in a place to justify buying clay. i should just get some#i think im fairly good at it tbh. anyway.#knitting. sewing. mending and modding clothes in general. embroidery. id like to learn to crochet at some point#photography and scrapbooking sound appealing. photo editing.#web design. game design. 3d modeling. these are all things i dont really know how to do much of but id like to#animation. voice acting. regular acting. honestly a lot of stuff in the filmmaking process sounds fascinating id like to try some of it#tarot reading. is that a hobby? im gonna say yes. jewelry making.#lots of these ive only dabbled in and some i havent even done that but would like to. but i have no time and or money to get into them.#i would hardly call myself a master at any of these. jack of all trades as it were. and thats fine im fine w that#but given the time and resources i think i could make so many different diverse perfectly average to good things#that people could enjoy in passing or say 'oh how neat :)' about

just know that i take a screenshot of majority of the tags that you leave on my art bc seeing you guys being impacted by what i do and knowing that i make your day better leaves me with a huge goofy smile on my face
#sometimes i see ppl with the most beautiful art and they tell me how much my art impacted them positively and im like 'WHAT'#its just cool to hear that i leave a positive impact on ppl#ppl tell me that i deserve more notes and followers and i understand why they feel this way but im genuinely content with where i am at-#-this moment.#i dont want to have a gigantic following but i cant deny that it would be nice if i got more notes.#i just really like having this tight knit community that i can interact and talk with about the things i love#anyways i love it when you guys interact with me and i genuinely encourage you to ask for stuff or requests cus thats cool !!!!!!#i like knowing about the things you love and drawing them for others is so special to me !!#gah i started rambling#rambles ig#ty again my friend moots and followers

this so much!!! adding on my own little things cause this so much
even if you arnt a sporty kid you can m e s s with your limbs. i used to be super duper into knitting. i loved it and was proud at how fast i could knit and how good i could do it being mostly self taught and pretty young, the thing i didnt know tho is that there are streatched and reasons people knit slow.
after fast tight knitting with my hands all balled up, now i cant hold a fist right. have internaly bruised my hand in ways where joints sorta click into place, and have tenced my hands so that writing more than a page at a time at most will hurt my hand and i will need to take a break for 10 minutes. no one told me about this!! also have a callus that just, is stuck there. on one of my fingers.
plus plus with my hands balled so much, it made the bones in my fingers curl extra and my hands judt in general look super sickly now lol- (on the bright side, i can thread any needle super easily first try from my years of sewing!)
“transition poses some ethical questions. Such as, from what age should you be allowed to irreversibly change your body.“
This of course completely ignores the fact that puberty makes irreversible changes to your body. But let us just rephrase the question: “from what age do you gain bodily autonomy?” Now it gets very easy to answer: From the moment you’re fucking born.
#dumb frog stuffs#have so many materials in my room wouldnt even know#need to use them and make stuff so bad but high school has taken my time to the point where i dont make stuff anymore#which sucks because like i like drawing but thats not my only creative hobby#i like making bracelets!! i like knitting! i like crocheting stuffed animals!!! i love sewing!!!!#i wanna learn how to cross stitch. carve and wood work one day damnit!!!#modern day society not letting me fufil what ancestors did and just make things#my creativity cant get me anywhere exept to make gifts for friends and draw pretty dudes in dresses-#idk rambles not inportant just screaming into void

Please ramble more about DarkChocolate!!!!
I need sustenance
GRHSHSGNAHANAHSNSHSJSH HEYYYY HIIII YES YES OF COURSE!!!! YOUR WISH IS MY COMAND I LOOOOOVEEE THEM HEHEHE
GONNA DUMP SOME HEADCANONS AGAIN CUZ WHY TF NOT!!!
I dont think either of them actually COMMUNICATE the fact that they love each other- LIKE I MEAN for outsiders they don’t even look like they’re dating bcuz of how dry these bitches are yk!! No ilys before going to work or nothing!!! I’m convinced they both prefer to show their love through actions rather than constant reassurance!!
Error’s love language is def gift giving (crocheting stuff, making dolls, stealing random stuff, yk the usual) and Nm’s is def acts of service :3 (checking in constantly, always stocking up on people’s favorite foods/snacks, cleaning up after his blorbos, ect)
Error is constantly making fun of Nightmare for writing in cursive, sorry chat i dont make the rules
OH AND THAT REMINDS ME THEY SOOOOOO BULLY EACH OTHER SOOOO DAMN MUCH!!
Nm constantly bullies abt his TERRIBLE eyesight!! MY BROTHER IN CHRIST HOW R U FIGHTING N DODGING U ARE LEGALLY BLIND HELLO
THIS TOO TIES ALONG WITH THE FACT THEY DONT REALLY ACT LIKE A COUPLE WHEN THEYRE IN PUBLIC!!! Like what i mean is ur 100% gonna see them yelling and screaming at each other for some random ass shit like taking too long to pick an ice cream flavor but 2 seconds later ur gonna see them huddling up and eating their stupid ass ice scream like an old married couple
YES THEY R SOOOO OLD MEN YAOI!!! IM TALKING BOTH OF THEM ROTTING IN BED WITH A THOUSAND BLANKETS, WHILE NM READS THE PAPER OR BOOK AND ERROR KNITS!!! THEY R GRANDPAS IM SORRY
The first few times Error started visiting the castle THE MAN WAS ACTING LIKE A FUCKING RABID DOG— he did NOT like the concept of WALLS (safe to say a LOT of walls got gaster blastered)
AAAND on the topic of Error’s firts visits to the castle!! Nm used to constantly get jumpscared by Error hanging out in the most random places imaginable!! On top of the fridge? He’s there! In random hallways inside the library? Comfy! Perched up in a hammock on the ceiling of the living room? Yes sir!! Nm doesn’t get jumpy abt it since he just kinda got used to it but the other residents of the castle are NOT happy about Error’s extremely odd chilling spots
I luv y’all for letting me yap abt my blorbos,, thank u for this opportunity wowwww!!! Also no doodle this time i didnt know what to draw lmaoooo :3
ANYWAYS BYEEEEE!! ^^
#Cough cough y’all can ASK me to draw them too COUGH COUGH#JUST SAYING COUGH#but yea can y’all tell i like them#only a little bit#a normal amount#errormare#darkchocolate

its been a whole month. but you know what time it is? thats right.
DAY 6: MARCH 17, 2024
STATS: read for 1 hour 20 minutes (WEAK.) pages read: 1359-1592. 233 pgs slur count: 9 + 3 = 12 (dave, john x2. r slur) silly count: 11 + 1 = 12 (wv about his drawings) (i REALLY feel like i missed some... but whatever.) piss count: 2/3 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) (dave pissed in his shower)
THOUGHTS: ok i didnt think a lot this round cus its like nearing midnight on a school night so im reading for funsies ok
act 4 has the story bouncing around way more than it did in previous acts. i saw a lot of the exiles today. and a lot of TROLLS! the exiles are so fun today i saw some pm and ar lore and wv pm ar all fought and then they had a meal. and wv and ar are trying to win over pm but she dont care. the WOMEN. panel. so good.
somethin else i reaaally noticed this time around is HOW GOOD HUSSIE WRITES! seriously these kids are talking so naturally its insane. i really like it. theyre so cute. they talk like me and my friends and its really good. hussies a really good writer guys
why did dave say that "i should probably text [john] soon. cus. i love him" why did he say that? and rose's "I know." why? what? im sure this has been read into like a million times but it feels so OUT OF POCKET. why did he SAY THAT? why does rose KNOW? what is anything.
today was the introduction to rose's exile and land. the land of light and rain. the combination of the land and the weird cursive exile and the weird loneliness and silence just really... it really creeps me out ok. "A mother does what's best for her children" with the empty dock with a cut rope and the martini. ugh. "There are footprints in the white sand." oh my god. IT CREEPS ME OUT. its SO QUIET it freaks me. augh. i love you rose
DAVE PEED THIS ROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the next (and last) on the piss counter is in the middle of act 6 so were gonna be sitting pretty for a damn while. daves kind of a freak to be real. he says "voyeurbot" and "little girl" in the same sentence. why did he say this?
PA HARLEY. PA HARLEY ON LAND OF WIND AND SHADE!!!! WOOOOOO!!!!!!!! oh oh aaaalso jade mentioned her penpal (JAKE!!!) and it got me a little excited. teehee. i looove jake english you dont even know
ummm dave entering the game... hes not in yet. but hes toying with his big machines and he got his totem and the object out. his egg. yeah. i didnt realize he was just playing with all this stuff and hes not even in the medium yet. craaaazy
WE SAW TEREZI THREE TIMES TODAY! THATS SO MUCH! SHES SO CUTE! i literally love terezi i always forget but i love her. shes so cool and silly and cute and the best. her convo with rose (her first one?) is so funny and awesome and ahh i love terezi. she says that the two of them were destined to be hatebuddies cus theyre both seers. ahhh
she also mentions some god tiers during that convo which was crazy. seer of mind. page of breath. knight of blood. maid of time. hussie just had this stuff on lock huh. why TAVROS'S classpect? not like vriskas? i dont know man.
karkat was so dumb today i cant even talk about him. he showed up twice and fumbled so bad. girl you havw GOT to stop being mean to people and yes that includes yourself. i really like karkat too i cant lie. hes so dumb so sweet. i love you karkat
jack noir just straight up gives pm a hit list for her king and queen for no reason. i mean yes there is a reason hes like "lol i do this to everyone wouldnt it be crazy if she was the one to get me their crowns lol" why does he do that? does he just have swords and symbols on lock? hes literally crazy
rose does her cool knitting needle in the monster thing. DAVE AND KANAYA CONVERSATION! i love them bad. rose and tavros is also funny but tavros types so much like a tool i can hardly stand it. im gonna be real i dont really like tavros. hes just not my style sorry
thats it sorry for not reading for a month. maybe ill do more this month haha. maybe maybe not. we will see ;-) thanks
#me#nutzworth hs reread#hoooonk shooooo#i wanted to read some homestuck for my birthday so here i am#spring breaks coming up... maybe ill read then#who knoooose

i realize how nothingish this question is regards to like answerability but like how do you get.... ideas...? or. i dont really ever have any kind of bigger things i want to draw its always like small stuff.... or... idk.... i want to make things that are like.. more... i want to make stuff that like... means something makes you think something... most of my stuff is just tiny little things with nothing behind it just something to get it down but i like want to make things that are interesting to look at.... idk..... okay wait ill share a self portrait i did.
^ im really hapoy with this stuff theres color theres studf going on! an eclipse! right like its. its neat theres things theres associations being made theres questions theres something there this is the only thing ive made where i actually feel like ive expressed something that was in me and i just dont know how to do that again i want to make more things like that i want to get more out of my art than just putting stuff down thatll be forgotten the second its down i want what i make to be meaningful to me and idk how... uhhhh anyway thanks for reading thisif you do i just needed to get thoughts out or smth frustrated with this. doing this for six years and its just. ive managed like a handful of things id want to show people everything else is just things made because i just have to do this urghhh sorry about all this
Howdy! I had to take a bit to think of an answer for this question. I didn’t want to fall back on the statement everyone gets when they ask about art (practice), especially since you specified ideas rather than art appearance/style. So! Lets get into that! (gonna be kind of long oops)
First I want to say that I enjoy your self portrait, its very colourful and I LOVE colour. The choices in colour also complement each other very well, as yellow, orange, and blues go well together. Not only that, but the saturation of each colour help bounce off each other and bring it all together. Now, I assume the materials are a blue pen, and crayons? It might be markers, but the way the orange moves across the yellow makes me think of crayons. I adore it! I love crayons and haven’t been able to use them in a while, so it’s nice to see them being used.
Now, your question, I feel needs some context from my side of things before I can properly answer it. I have been doing art for about 15 years now, and I have done multiple mediums including painting (water colour, oil, and acrylic), drawing (crayons, pens, markers, pencils, etc.), fiber arts (knitting, sewing, crocheting), baking/cooking (i think the presentation counts and how its a medium that takes combing lots of things to make a singular outcome), and a few I wont share right now. I’ve had official art classes that made me do things very specifically, one that taught me art history and how different genres of art were introduced, another on creativity and how to help flourish ideas, and some others on how to use different mediums and styles. I also watch speedpaints, animatics, and animation progress videos to learn some quick shortcuts in digital art since I was never taught officially on digital art. Including all of these, I also have done LOTS of practice in art. Having said this, lets get into some of my own thought processes.
When I make art, the first things I tend to ask myself is “what do I want” and “what do I think would be interesting”? These aren't mutually exclusive, but they can be answered very differently depending on how I want to do something. For the Siffrin during the Mal du Pays fight piece, I actually started it by seeing a cat picture and thinking, “I want a discord reaction with Siffrin face down on the floor” which went into drawing Siffrin as the cat and then asking myself, “Wait, why is Siffrin face down?” which went into Oh! It’d be funny if it was Mal du Pays! So, doing that I decided to make it in the king's room which meant I had to draw a background. Eventually that transformed into “Okay but it doesnt look right, why?” the answer was that it didnt look like the game so I had to add some texture details and ta-da! Siffrin face down!
But this also comes from years of practice in knowing what I want and knowing how to draw it, some of my art pieces were, “I think it would be cool if I drew a character looking down at me in front of a skyscraper” but um,, I didnt know how to draw that ;-; so I had to just let my hands kind of try and finish the piece even if I didnt like it. At that point, I realized I needed to practice the character and my style more until I COULD draw what I wanted. Which led into my drawing, a LOT of things I couldn’t and didnt like.
As for symbolism in art, and how I got ideas for it, a lot of it comes down to knowing the character and how you want to translate your thoughts of the character into art. One of the ways I started doing this was adding flowers to the characters art, or learning what flower I considered “theirs” that way I could add hints to it in the drawings. Some of it also came from animals, others came from art genres and their historical significance, and some come down to theories (such as colour theory in art).
Finally, it really does come down to practice. As much as I hate to say it, a lot of the art pieces I do and share tend to lean towards “practice” or concept doodles so that I can better understand HOW I want to add it to a bigger piece. Most of my Siffrin and Loop drawings tend more to that as I need to better understand how their shapes and lines communicate to an art piece (Loop being a fucking star gets me so much) before i can add symbolism and make a bigger art piece. Even then, sometimes it doesnt work and the bigger art piece needs to be put to a back burner before i can communicate my thoughts on the characters as I wish to.
(Here’s also a neat little trick I do, write out what you want to draw and then draw thumbnails so you can figure out the composition of the piece you want. It helps you know where something goes and how you want it to appear without keeping it in our brain for a long period of time. Some of the things I share are concept doodles but I’ve shared pictures of me doing this before! It can be annoying but trust me, it helps when you can’t figure out the draft at all.)
Also, heres some of my REAL old art for reference when I say I’ve practiced a lot and didn’t always know how to do big art pieces ;;;;
Hope that helped answer some of my thought process on ideas and how that translates to art? I could go into more detail if you need me to discuss something further
#Answered asks#Sugarfrin ask#Im not very good at giving advice or how to do something ;;;; but I try!!!#Let me know if you need me to delete this :3 I dont know if you wanted me to answer this publicly

Hello! I was wondering if i could get a Romantic matchup please? I dont mind what part the character is from!! I am Bisexual so the gender doesnt matter and i am also non-binary.
Myself, I am loud, goofy but sweet.
I always look out for other people and try to have fun doing it. Enjoying bringing a smile and joking around with the people i love most. Always wearing a big smile across my face. Although i know when to set down boundaries and be straightforward with people. Along with that, i can be a bit sensitive at times. Quick to anger or to cry if someone raises their voice. I am also very creative, quite enjoying writing and drawing. However i do consider myself average at it. Along with this, i love nature and learning about psychology. it's interesting. I also knit and sew from time to time. I like clowns and anything creepy. I also dislike whenever someone is rude for no reason and loud noises, i am sensitive to them.
For my ideal partner, i want someone fun, kind, caring. Someone i can goof off with and joke around, but still relax and just hang out with. Hes gotta have some patience if we ever do argue because i tend to yell and get angry really fast. Im also very stubborn and will stand by my opinion until im calmed down. Thats when i try to apologise. My love languages are physical Affection (giving and receiving) and words of affirmation (receiving and giving). My mbti is infp and zodiac is leo. am 5'10ft tall so i often tower over most people i meet along. Along with that, i tend to dress darker and more gothic. I have sight and hearing problems along with a scar on my face so. Things i would like to do with my partner vary on my mood. Cuddling and relaxing whenever i feel down, maybe reading a book together. Maybe taking a walk together and enjoying the sun. Thank you!!!
i match you with...♡
☆noriaki kakyoin☆
my immediate thought was kakyoin😭
same height couples rule!!!!
and he honestly loves that you're the same height as him
you guys share clothes for sure
dates with him are so chill
like you guys could literally just be sitting at home drawing together and he'd be having the time of his life
as long as he's with you!
would definitely want to do the one trend on tiktok where you paint eachother
i totally see him laying in your lap while you read a book and play with his hair, he'd literally be knocked out in 5 minutes
knows that you're sensitive to loud noises so he always makes an effort to be a little extra quiet
when you guys argue he will try his hardest to always be patient with you and listen to your point of view
i feel like you guys would have really good communication because you guys just genuinely respect eachother
he'd def wanna take you for walks
i feel like as a kid he probably found alot of secret hideouts that he would just claim for his own
like a random flower field hidden behind a forest or smth like that😭
he'd take you there for sure
i totally see you guys having sleepovers and being up at like 3am laughing over the most random stuff
like laughing so hard its coming out silent and you're like falling over on top of eachother ykwim😭
you'd be knocked out 15 minutes later in eachothers arms
you guys would probably be bestfriends before you started dating
you'd fall for eachother like almost immediately but were both too shy to say anything lmao
he really admires how you're always looking out for people
and he loves that you aren't afraid to set boundaries when they're needed
i feel like you guys would just be like the best duo
always have eachothers backs yk
he'd be really gentle when comforting you
he'd give you space if you need it, or he'll cradle you in his arms, anything to make you feel better
would tell you things like "you're okay sweetheart, i've got you, it's okay"
kakyoin doesn't really give me "touch her and you die" vibes, but more like he's always watching out for you and will not hesitate to take action if you're uncomfortable
like if you were waiting for him somewhere and someone came and tried to hit on you he'd just appear and be like "oh, hello, my partner and i were actually just leaving"
he would most definitely want you to paint his nails just saying
i could see you guys going to a haunted house and him acting all tough but being totally freaked out once he's actually in there💀
i honestly think kakyoin would be a lover boy
i said what i said
it will always be you and kakyoin, like people always refer to you guys together because you're inseparable
#jjba#jojo's bizarre adventure#jjba matchup#jjba headcannons#kakyoin noriyaki#kakyoin headcanons#anime#jjba sdc#stardust crusaders#jotaro kujo#joseph joestar#muhammed avdol#jean pierre polnareff#jjba imagine

Actually wait because of that Dove Alicia Magnolia ask now I kind of want to see what your rankings on Beauford Albedo and Mint are. They're all such good boys it's so hard 😭I'm sorry
THESPIAN. I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST YOU. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ok. But really now. Here are the ULTIMATE rakings for my three favorite guys. Because theyre the onlu guys ever actuallly okay shh
3. Albedo (sorry albedo) honestly. i love albedo very much. do not get me wrong. he is such a sweet boy and i would knit him a blanket if i could. But I also think compared to the other two,, im not as emotionally attached to him; if you asked me this question like. a year ago he'd absolutely be on top. but thats also because over a year ago i hadn't played silver thread or symbiosis. so. woe is me albedo'ss story is soooo near and dear to me. like, i love how he's being set up to have this huge divide between love and knowledge. And I will ABSOLUTELY eat that up when it happens. but sadly, a certain company hasn't given him more than like a smidgen of screentime in a very long time, so i think a lot of my fixation on him has dwindled :(
2. Beafford I love beaford. he is just. so funny. he's a college dropout; he likes anime; he forces alicia to watch anime; he cosplays; he has a cat keychain that resembles himself; he left home without saying anything; hes really intelligent but acts stupid. What can you NOT love about him?? (besides his horrific taste in fashion.) I think his personality is also very important to me. Because obviously he's not the most serious person. at all. But he can still convey how smart he is; I.E the way he was able to in the moment find a way to back up Alicia and also the Chinese room experiment. Maybe I'm just a big fan of characters who are smart and dont have it as their entire character; but I think thats just SO near and dear to me. He also clearly has some stuff going on considering his few mentions around his family. So I'm glad he got to come and (against his will) work with Alicia :)
mmint I think mint deserves this spot for a lot of reasons. One, magnolia is his mother so I am just slightly impartial. But also because two, hes so horribly sweet and tragic and kind that he KILLS me. Mint lives in the forest his whole life and is told explicitly to not go out into civilization. Does he want to live in the city and go to school? yes. and does he voice this? hardly. why? because he knows it makes magnolia sad. and he doesnt want to see his mom said. Mint meets lady in forest who looks the age of his mom, and said lady tells him his mom is evil. His initial response? He knows. He knows magnolia is evil. he already knows magnolia is a murderer. but he knows magnolia loves him and he loves him mom. so its okay. (In ending B) not a horribly long time later; same women shows up in his room at an unholy hour and within the next hour the SAME women has a gun to his moms head, which is clearly making his mom very distressed. within 5 minutes he finds out this women is his moms ex-wife. within that same 5 minute period his mom disappears and tells him to treat this women like his mom. A couple years later he comes back to the house and we find out he could never bring himself to call dove mom. He also finds out his mom kept all his drawings. Tears are streaming down my face.
#thank you thespian#even if#you did#make me convulse on the floor when i first got this#ilysm 💜💜💜#my favorite guys#mint#beaford#albedo

The Sad About Chapter 9 Anon(TM) again - from reading your thoughts I realise what made me so sad. the fact that the team is hostile towards each other and haven’t had the growth during their personal stories!! i really like them as a close knit unit that Cares about each other and seeing the team all hostile and not happy hurt!! i’m currently reading your fluffy stuff to cheer up and i have one question for you (from writer to writer): how do you balance the canon with your fics?
hi again, Sad About Chapter 9 Anon™ (thats such a hilarious and delightful mouthful of an anon nickname HAHAJHVKJA)!!! im glad that my main story 9 ramblings cld help u figure out the Sorrow because AGH...YEAH...SAME!!!!! as someone who loves the team dearly, seeing them fractured like this really hits me hard in the feels ;w;
i hope u enjoy my tot fluffs, wahhh!! and that they help out in soothing the post-chapter9 anguish :'D
now, onto ur VERY INTERESTING question
thank u for asking btw it's a nice question and it really made me think, because my gut reaction answer is.....i dont?
kJHVAFHVASKJFHAVKFAJHFA
like, as a whole, i tend to use fanfic as the medium for which things Outside of canon can happen and be explored. if i was too caught up in canon, after all, i wouldnt really be able to immerse myself in non-canon ships like mariluke or nxx polycule, wouldnt be able to speculate on what-ifs as much or out-there AUs, etc etc.....But
in saying that, it does imply that i Do Very Much Take Canon Into Account. i use canon not as a constraint or a weight to be balanced, but as my jump-off point for tot fic
i think the Biggest thing in canon that i draw from is the Over-Arching Characterization of the characters. that, to me, is an immensely important bedrock that i need to see developed in canon before i can even start writing any fic of my own for a media. but eventually through time, i know that My Subjective Interpretation will affect the starting point characterization. which is why sometimes i feel like how i write tot characters isnt completely loyal to canon. i dont think Any fanwork is completely loyal to canon. the moment it passes through a fan's mind towards whatever the fanwork is, our fingerprints are on them and have skewed them one way or another. and thats not a bad thing to me idk, i love it. im fully aware that the Luke That I Write, for example, can be someone unrecognizeable to somebody who interprets him a different way from the canon that we've all seen
so uh.....tldr summary: i dont worry too much about balancing canon. canon is the raw material but im chucking it into a big pot and tossing more ingredients in there as i please to concoct hopefully powerful fanfic broths and whatnot HAHA

I truly think that every oc creator/person who makes a lot of content for some show/game/movie/etc should really get into some kind of handcraft.
Like i feel the most common types of fanworks ppl make for shows is art or writing (Same for oc worlds) and that's awesome, i'm no exception, but if you're able (Cause i understand if you're not able, in which case I would suggest alternatives, but I can't think of any, so if anyone wants to give alternatives in tags or smth that would be nice) I really do recommend getting into some kind of hobby that lets you Make Things with your Hands (crochet, knitting, sewing, embroidery, doll customs if you have the money (And even if you don't you can always find a way.)).
Because if you do it will: a) allow you a break from drawing or writing or your most common mode of "making content" for ocs or fandoms (I don't at all like that phrase lol)
b) You can make your ocs or their clothes in real life you can TOUCH it you can INTERACT with it (i'm crocheting my oc's sweater over the summer!!!!! doll customizers can make their ocs or their blorbos or whatever!!!! IN REAL LIFE!!!!) and that idea is fucking crazy to me so of course i love it
c) If you're in a rut artistically just do the other handcraft lol!
This is from the point of view of an able-bodied person who draws and crochets primarily and can afford many of the materials for the craft, so there's a lot of stuff I DON'T know about (how disability, income, etc affects this + as simple as other types of handcrafts i dont know about) and I'm okay with admitting that*. I want people to share the joy I have for creation or some shit like that. Actually i want people to understand that you can make your oc's clothes in real life or perhaps even a cotton doll of them. You just have to learn.
*also, i am clumsy with my words, so ask for clarification if you're struggling to understand the post pls!

Drop those team taka head cannons
omg i adore team taka altho i feel i don’t even have the most particularly interesting headcanons for them LOL a lot of them will be design headcanons bc thats what i normally think of as an artist hehee uhm.. i’ll start with suigetsu bc i love suigetsuuuuu
for suigetsu as shown in my drawing of him from today i like the thought of him dying the tips of his hair blue….. the way the anime shades his hair is far too cool to accept it’s shading and not act like those are dyed tips….
[ ID: two screenshots of suigetsu. END ID. ]
like cmonnnnn the blue tips are the coolest thing in the world. it is NOT shading TO ME ☝️☝️☝️☝️ also i didn’t draw this in my recent suigetsu bc i forgot when i was drawing it 😢😢 but i do imagine he has scabs on his lips and around his mouth often from accidentally biting his lip T.T sometimes i bite too hard and draw blood i can only imagine having sharp teeth and doing that T.T also he wears smudged eyeliner. uh this ones maybe kinda obvious but to me he doesn’t have much of a sense of boundaries and doesn’t have much shame in his body so T.T being his roommate would be a constant battle to make sure he walks around the apartment in *some* clothes. like by everything holy just *something*
this one is absolutely not based at all but it’s my brain and i can do to jūgo as i please with it ☝️☝️ and i like to imagine jūgo likes to wear accessories on his head a lot. like hair clips, hats, maybe he starts growing it out a bit more and ties parts of it up. it catches little birdies attentions more too which he enjoys and is a bonus other than it just being cute to me. to me he’s also the friend that carries around a big bag to hold everyones shit in when they get tired of carrying their own stuff. like yeah man just toss it in… it adds nothing i already have anything you could imagine in here anyways. y’know y’know. most of my jūgo headcanons are not based at all ajksjsjss i’m sorry but i also like to imagine he might pick up smth like woodworking/carving maybee knitting/crotchet (but i lean most towards wood carving) to keep himself distracted and occupied. less likely to have episodes and intrusive thoughts for him. obviously doesn’t stop everything but it helps the tiniest but plus it’s fun :) i think if he were to do carvings and stuff he’d give like a few to his friends if it was smth they specifically liked but i think he kinda likes and prefers to just leave them around, to either be lost to time or be found by someone else! i think he has lots of scars on his hands and knuckles— between the wood carving and his rampages i think his hands take quite the damage. and y’all know i like scars so i ignore any jutsu that may deter scar creation so to me he defo gets scars. except suigetsu’s jutsu actually.. i dont think suigetsu gets scars at all.
i like to imagine karin with a bunch of neat kind of earrings. anything fun/funky. also she has one industrial piercing too to me.. sasuke has two of them but karin had one before she knew sasuke did 😭😭 just a coincidence she swears she swearssss. this one would like.. technically be canon anyways in the first half but bc of all the bite marks she has n stuff her skin would be suuuper bumpy… i think she probably doesn’t like people touching her cause strangers/non team taka end up commenting on how gross it is T.T she prolly wears long sleeves as much as she can. which i rlly don’t know much about boruto but i think long sleeves in that one is canon too. i like to work with out of canon clothings so even then if i end up starting a karin fashion board it would have strictly long sleeve outfits in it. also i like to imagine her with some vocal tics. i dont imagine her with tourettes but just a small tic disorder. i think she mostly does like clicking sounds and hums… not any words or anything :) also i feel like her eyesight is just constantly getting worse and worse. i imagine she’s legally blind but still it gets worse. when she’s older like maybe her 50s or 60s she goes blind and just relies on only sensing ppls chakra to know who’s around w/o asking. i mean she heavily relies on that anyways even when she does have eyesight.. i like to just think she uses it a lot instead of straining her eyes when her prescription starts changing.
uhm and for sasuke some more team taka centred headcanons instead of just some hcs in general… i mean i’ll just state the obvious here because soooo many ppl tend to ignore this but. team taka are sasukes best friends…. not the rest of the konoha 12… so jot that one down. i feel like even when they branch off and do their own thing (again idk anything about boruto none of that is canon to me akshjshsjsjs so don’t be like “uhmm well actually 🤓🤓”) they like to keep in contact. even if not often they’ll send messages. i like to think if they’re aware they’re gonna end up being somewhere near-ish the others they’ll all go out of their way to pay a visit. uh also i DONT think this actually happened like it’s not a headcanon of mine but i do think the thought of suigetsu being sasukes first (very short term) bf is a funny thought…. it does not last tho cause anytime they’re tryna talk about sweet things and their thoughts sasuke just talks about naruto T.T again i dont actually headcanon that happening but it is a funny thought to me… uhm also i don’t particularly think there’s a moment in which this would end up happening but i do think that out of all of team taka sasuke trusts jūgo the most to just… have a personal conversation with. like he doesn’t go out of his way to ever talk about personal shit with him, but i think if a situation were to come up in which he had to/felt like he needed to i think jūgo would be the one he’d go to c:
most importantly no matter how much they do argue with each other team taka does all love eachother.. and they certainly stay friends for life. even if they don’t talk much i think they will all always consider them a group of friends that they can just send messages to without the thought of it being strange after it being so long. it doesn’t even have to be some kind of important message either. just a little random message whenever they think of it.
#hehehe thank you for asking c:#i’m not sure that me headcanons for them are particularly interesting but T.T#my*#i hope i didn’t disappoint hehe#ik a lot was design choice but its what i fantasized most about while watching so i could easily draw them how my brain imagines them#team taka#karin#hōzuki suigetsu#jūgo#uchiha sasuke#ask and i shall answer#anon asks

ty @perishablealex for tagging me! this is my first tag thingie lmao so lets go
name: cami
pronouns: she/her
Where do you call home? bogotá, colombia. it's where i grew up and also where i live, and while it has many, many flaws, it will always be my home.
Favorite animal: DUCKS and DOGS. i love basically any animal ever but i really am partial to ducks and dogs
Cereal of choice: this is such a grandma answer but like granola? i used to like froot loops a lot as a child but i dont really have a cereal of choice and i barely ever eat it.
Are you visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learner? I would say probably visual and auditory, but it changes every few years when whatever technique i use to pay attention stops working.
First pet: my first pet was a rabbit named lulu! i thought she was so cute but my parents didnt love it bc she would shit everywhere so we sent her to live with my grandpa and then she ran away :(
Favorite scent: i love the smell of bread, of books and the smell of grass just after it's rained. all three give me a lot of comfort.
Do you believe in astrology: not actively, but a lot of my friends who are into astrology tell me i fit in really well into the traits of my sign and the other stuff.
How many playlists do you have on spotify/apple music? i have 126 that i've made (and i have them organised into folders too 💀), and i follow some other ones.
Sharpies or highlighters? highlighters, i never use sharpies
Song that makes you cry? if you catch me at the right time, basically any song. i have a very emotional and personal connection to music, and i've cried to so many songs on so many different occasions it's hard to choose one which is why i have a playlist. however, i would say either 26 by paramore, a song that captured my inner turmoil very accurately, or seven by taylor swift , as it reminds me of my best friend. also summer from the four seasons by vivaldi because of portrait of a lady on fire.
Song that makes you happy? literally also any other song. but for this i would say sabes una cosa by luis miguel or take it easy by eagles.
And finally, do you write/draw/create? i do write, though im not too confident about it. i do love to crochet, and i also know how to knit and embroider.
no pressure tagging! @captainelliecomb @seethemflying @nplutonian @zetaaa @sdwolfpup

I WANNA BE A FARM BOY SO FUCKING BAD!!! aughhghgh
I want to live on a fully self-sustaining farm, animals, plants, things to make clothes with. I wanna have my own little butcher place & shit. I want basically to have my own country thing but have it be my house. I yearn to live in an isolated farm, with animals & pets & shit.
I wanna learn how to build an entire house, all imporant stuff like radioators & plumming shit included. I wanna learn it all, do it myself, and become a clean energy self sustaining cryptid man of the forest.
BUT IM A LAME LOOZER CITY BOY!!! i dont know the first thing abt farm life or how hard it is, I have to study a complete different lifestyle & learn how to live it but it seems SO WORTH IT.
Also i wanna be every breed of artist, i wanna draw, paint, do digital art, crochet, knit, sew, carve, word burn, stained glass art, origami, build stuff, any version of an art related hobby I WANT IT!!! i wanna make clothes, i wanna make furnitare, build houses, I wish to create every possible thing ever.
