something small but consequential about alien stage that drives me crazy is the juxtaposition of mizisua and ivantill. mizisua, where love translates well and ivantill, where love doesn’t. where love is a two-way road vs where love is a crash test car. either way, it ends in tragedy. maybe the only consistent thing about the human heart is that it eventually breaks, maybe the closest they can get to experiencing their own humanity light-years away is through all the loving and losing they do

you got any vanessa pics from the ben 10 ml security breach au? also who was hugging vanessa (i think its vanessa) in the 3rd doodle in your post "I think… I figured out where they’d meet."?

Okay starting the year with some Crossover AU Lore LET'S GO-

I'll sketch a few once I'm able to! I'm just busy bc college (plus I am too hard on myself. if I see my art's quality go whack I lose™ it)

That person you are referring to is Vanessa's (non-existent) friend! uh... let me explain.

I have this idea that at some point in Vanessa's life (or maybe in another timeline? I haven't completely figured it out yet) she made a friend in her childhood. They used to hang out, play a lot, and all that kid stuff, but the friend had to move to another city for personal reasons.

When that said friend moved... well... they stopped hearing from them. There were even implications that they went into an accident and... yeah.

You would think that this may have affected her, or at least became a factor as to why she's the way she is. But the thing is - it didn't. Somehow, when she stopped hearing from them, she stopped thinking about them too. At the same time, information about them vanished. No traces, no cover-ups, or anything. It was like they never existed.

Ironically, the friend remembers her. To them, everything is normal. They didn't even notice they "vanished". Instead, they just assumed they both parted ways because of life. So when they found her, they were thrilled hence why they were enthusiastically hugging her in my drawing.

To Vanessa, however, it was ...really a deja-vu kind of awkward. The friend is familiar and unfamiliar to her, in a way that it doesn't make sense.

This relates to the Mall's existence in general tbh

The Mall isn't supposed to be there, yet it is, and for some reason, it is connected with different timelines/realities that aren't supposed to interconnect. It's basically a paradox.

That said, although they have become irrelevant to Vanessa's life or FNAF reality in general, they'll be very important here.

==============================================

TLDR:

I will draw Vanessa (and this AU) more just wait

It's Vanessa's childhood friend! But for paradox reasons, she can't remember them. Ironically, they remember her. They'll become notable character in the AU story.

Happy 1 year anniversary to Mr Sherlock Holmes! Here's a litttleee celebratory comic from me

one of the things that's the most fucking frustrating for me about arguing with climate change deniers is the sheer fucking scope of how much it matters. sweating in my father's car, thinking about how it's the "hottest summer so far," every summer. and there's this deep, roiling rage that comes over me, every time.

the stakes are wrong, is the thing. that's part of what makes it not an actual debate: the other side isn't coming to the table with anything to fucking lose.

like okay. i am obviously pro gun control. but there is a basic human part of me that can understand and empathize with someone who says, "i'm worried that would lead to the law-abiding citizens being punished while criminals now essentially have a superpower." i don't agree, but i can tell the stakes for them are also very high.

but let's say the science is wrong and i'm wrong and the visible reality is wrong and every climate disaster refugee is wrong. let's say you're right, humans aren't causing it or it's not happening or whatever else. let's just say that, for fun.

so we spend hundreds of millions of dollars making the earth cleaner, and then it turns out we didn't need to do that. oops! we cleaned the earth. our children grow up with skies full of more butterflies and bees. lawns are taken over with rich local biodiversity. we don't cry over our electric bills anymore. and, if you're staunchly capitalist and i need to speak ROI with you - we've created so many jobs in developing sectors and we have exciting new investment opportunities.

i am reminded of kodak, and how they did not make "the switch" to digital photography; how within 20 years kodak was no longer a household brand. do we, as a nation, feel comfortable watching as the world makes "the switch" while we ride the laurels of oil? this boggles me. i have heard so much propaganda about how america cannot "fall behind" other countries, but in this crucial sector - the one that could actually influence our own monopolies - suddenly we turn the other cheek. but maybe you're right! maybe it will collapse like just another silicone valley dream. but isn't that the crux of capitalism? that some economies will peter out eventually?

but let's say you're right, and i'm wrong, and we stopped fracking for no good reason. that they re-seed quarries. that we tear down unused corporate-owned buildings or at least repurpose them for communities. that we make an effort, and that effort doesn't really help. what happens then? what are the stakes. what have we lost, and what have we gained?

sometimes we take our cars through a car wash and then later, it rains. "oh," we laugh to ourselves. we gripe about it over coffee with our coworkers. what a shame! but we are also aware: the car is cleaner. is that what you are worried about? that you'll make the effort but things will resolve naturally? that it will just be "a waste"?

and what i'm right. what if we're already seeing people lose their houses and their lives. what if it is happening everywhere, not just in coastal towns or equatorial countries you don't care about. what if i'm right and you're wrong but you're yelling and rich and powerful. so we ignore all of the bellwethers and all of the indicators and all of the sirens. what if we say - well, if it happens, it's fate.

nevermind. you wouldn't even wear a mask, anyway. i know what happens when you see disaster. you think the disaster will flinch if you just shout louder. that you can toss enough lives into the storm for the storm to recognize your sacrifice and balk. you argue because it feels good to stand up against "the liberals" even when the situation should not be political. you are busy crying for jesus with a bullhorn while i am trying to usher people into a shelter. you've already locked the doors, even on the church.

the stakes are skewed. you think this is some intellectual "debate" to win, some funny banter. you fuel up your huge unmuddied truck and say suck it to every citizen of that shitbird state california. serves them right for voting blue!

and the rest of us are terrified of the entire fucking environment collapsing.
