#i just need to figure out how imma render it

[deathbyfalldamage]

am i a lil bugger?

"If that's what you want to be, then sure."

[zeondraws]

I may be blind and have not tried to explore all the file locations in fmodel until now.

Found where the map textures are located, or for example all the people that died like Jamie, Kelly and all. I finally got a good look at Kelly!

This here be Kelly

Poor bastard

Okay, with this in mind I'll go through all folders in fmodel at some point, I have to see what else I can find. Found some unused/to be deleted folders which I found interesting

Hhmmm yes

So much work ahead, it really eats away my time, I've noticed, couldn't finish artworks recently. Mostly tried to work on that one AU drawing to have it almost done. But all this research eats my time which results in less time for art. Then I watch everyone else draw so much and I sit there thinking, man..

When I listen to soundfiles I can't draw at the same time since I need to stay focused on the sounds. However I managed to listen through 2k yesterday. I really really wanna be sure I have all the sounds for the Muir video, I literally found a different version of a perch howl yesterday! That one was not inside the actual Muir folder.

raaaah, the lore thickens. This could mean I can stumble upon other soundfiles from Muir that aren't in his Puppet folder. I only have... 16000 files to go through now. Number is getting smaller (I managed to listen to over 8.000 now).

If anyone ever wonders if I'll make a video of the soundfiles of other Puppets... maybe.. but I'd have to sort all these darn soundfiles from the Media folder. It's probably why people before me didn't bother at all. It took me over 2h and 30min to listen to 2000 files. Now calculate how much I need for 16000

Hhhmmm forbidden gummi, these are from Roper-

But hm, I currently want to finish that one artwork, then I need to sit down and draw something for a friend of mine for Secret Santa. Want to finish this Muir video before the year ends (I want to see it finished soooo badly). And maybe continue that super detailed Muir painting I had to put on hold, due to moving. The one I mean is shown on my pinned post here, that already took days to make and I'm not even halfway done with it. I want to see how far I can push my render skills atm.

Oh and draw a bunch of buses again, but on paper to get better with traditional art.

I always had problems managing my time (nothing new for me, so don't be confused if I do 6273728 things at once XD), tho I probably will figure out how to deal with this at some point. I always got yelled at, at my old workplace for taking too long on things, even tho my coworker kept giving me new tasks to work on so I couldn't finish the first thing he wanted, so he became more angry at me if I spend 3 weeks on something. Or spend 3 days on a task he usually finishes in 1 day, like. What? Like, he became soooo weird about it, that he tried to be angry about anythiiiing. And then he got confused when he heard what I told other coworkers in private. When he said that, I got flashbacks to my other uncle being angry that I told teachers how bad I felt mentally (at school). This is so confusing

I got praised for my work in the new job, which is wild that they don't expect me to work like a machine but to take my time. People aren't so focused on speed here.

So I don't know if my way of working on things is super bad, or if it's just dunno, big projects require so much energy and time. And then I watch everyone do so much art and I'm like waaaaiiit I wanna draw too Aaaaaaa. I wish I could eat art, because I frkn love art so much I shake my fists in the air whenever I see gorgeous artworks from others. Or see some absolutely stunning moviessssss.

I need to buy frames- I need to hang some drawings.

Okay Fellas, imma go tidy up my apartment and sort some stuff. I still have something to do in my bathroom.

busbusbusbusbusbusbusbusbusbusbbusbusbusbusbusbus

SPIDER-VERSE On The Brain

Massive SPIDER-VERSE *spoilers* are ahead... Do not read on if you haven't seen the movie...

It's been four days since I checked out SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE in theaters... And I'm still processing such a rich layer cake of a movie with all this stuff going on, just the sheer ambition of it... And... This story isn't even over, that's the mind-blowing part...

This movie did have pretty strong arcs for Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, and even Peter B. Parker to some extent, in addition to introducing a major conflict and a soon-to-be-primary antagonist in Miguel O'Hara/Spider-Man 2099... While a larger threat, The Spot, still looms, and there's even a closer to home threat for Miles himself as the picture wraps up...

There's so much more to go, assuming that BEYOND THE SPIDER-VERSE is also going to be a pretty long movie. That this movie was, in the planning stages, getting to be so big that they had to break it up into two parts? Who knows what we're in for...

I feel a lot of ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE's narrative brilliance is within its yet to be resolved conflict...

Canon...

Back in 2018, INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE came onto the scene with its dynamic new way of rendering CGI imagery in an animated feature, while throwing in eye-candy flourishes and other dynamic art styles to really make that movie pop amongst other mainstream animated movies *and* the entire comic book movie sphere. In a neat sense, this groundbreaking new way to make an animated feature strengthened the inclusive and quite simple overall message of the story: ANYONE can be Spider-Man.

Now, if INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE said "anyone can be Spider-Man", ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE asks what that "anyone" must go through to be Spider-Man.

Can Spider-Man truly be anyone?

What is "canon"?

Miguel is adamant that every Spider, from man to woman to animal to insect, must experience some major tragedy in order to truly be a Spider-Something. A loss of a family member, close friend, or any kind of loved one... That's that about that, that's the nature of the "Spider-Verse", it is set in stone, no other way! Seems to contradict "Anyone can be Spider-Man", right? Apparently Miles can't have a relatively normal non-costumed life, someone he loves HAS to be axed... And that's the case with... How many Spiders? Over 280?

... which quite frankly sounds very controlling and lacking in imagination. And kinda dumb on paper. Miles knows that, even... It all relates back to what his mother and father want for him vs. his ambitions and desires.

"Nah, imma do my own thing"...

Such a liberating line, during such a literally and figuratively heavy moment in the film...

Between Miles' arc and Gwen's story, this autistic queer right here felt something quite resonant from all of this... I needed to see and hear these classic story tropes pulled off in such a great new way at a crucial time in my life...

Now, this works even beyond one's personal journey and how a film relates to someone: ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE seems cleverly critical of contemporary superhero movie culture and most nerd-dom, from its most toxic swamps to its most boring offices. Adherence to "canon", shackling oneself to hard-set rules that mustn't be deviated from. It's especially potent coming from a movie series where the main Spider-Man is a black/Puerto Rican teenager, and his pals include a trans Spider-Woman, an older adult Peter Parker who has a child, and many more.

The insistence that Spider-Man has to be this one thing, i.e. Miguel running a Spider-Society that makes sure all Spider-People have that very "Uncle Ben" tragedy happen to them, with NO ANOMALIES... Miles' whole existence as Spider-Man, of course, is revealed to be said anomaly... In that a spider from another universe, Earth-42, got to his, Earth-1610, and bit him... Messing everything up... He's even blamed for Earth-1610 Peter Parker's death, to add insult to injury!

Or DID he mess things up?

Maybe "canon" is a bunch of bullshit.

The very kind of thing that shackles whole characters and franchises down, instead of letting those who come to the sandbox play with the toys THEIR way. INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE came to CG animation and didn't do the Pixar style, didn't do what most other mainstream animated movies were doing, didn't follow the accepted "standard" or "canon"... A friend of mine, in his review of ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE, noted something very interesting: This also ties into how a lot of very online animation fans insist that every new movie now must be like SPIDER-VERSE. And like PUSS IN BOOTS: THE LAST WISH. And like any other animated movie that they consider "top tier" or "based" or "cinema". Including a relatively-panned Mario movie. Screw off if you're Pixar making "mid" movies like TURNING RED and ELEMENTAL, or Disney Animation making equally "mid" movies like ENCANTO or RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON... "Canon" in feature animation, apparently, is now movies that must be like SPIDER-VERSE or PUSS IN BOOTS or whatever. Animated movie "requirements". You have to have scary dark villains, you have to have the most amazing unseen animation style ever, you have to do it all THIS WAY...

This whole "canon" nonsense also ties into superhero movies in general, as well. Even comics, like a lot of runs of Spider-Man are apparently doing... especially in a time of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DC movie-verse being clamped down by such hard continuity... That has only morphed into a bigger cluster-cuss, post-SPIDER-VERSE.

I remember when watching the LOKI Disney+ series, thinking... This series is trying to explain in FIVE 40-MINUTE EPISODES something INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE effortlessly explained in less than 5 MINUTES... Then you bring in the Doctor Strange follow-ups, all this stuff about "incursions". Incursions this, Sacred Timelines that... Why is this so goddamn convoluted and wracked head-to-toe with all these RULES? Other multiverse stories don't do this, and Marvel's characters span DECADES... And a big criticism of the recent MCU output is that the continuity, the canon... Doesn't allow for the characters to have their own unique stories, told by filmmakers with individual unique visions working within reasonable guidelines. I feel these two movies, along with EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE, show what a multiverse story can still be in this day and age.

And by using Miguel's rule, ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE goes right for the jugular bearing its spider-fangs.

Anyone can be Spider-Man, Spider-Man can have ANY life.

May I also add? The Spot... He's not in the movie much, but his arc... Tying this back to the worst of toxic nerd culture. The Spot is shook by being called some villain of the week and everything else that happened to him (like getting conked by the very bagel from the first movie), and instead of using his weird abilities for something good, he's going to go great lengths to prove that he is not some villain of the week. To become a larger scale threat... And for what? To fill a literal hole in himself? What validity and happiness will this bring him? I see something similar in some aspects of nerd culture, where they take being wronged (I'll humorously compare this to being shoved into lockers, circa 1988) at some point in their life, and turning it into their literal villain origin story... Growing up to be the jocks that bullied them, growing up to be the ones making life harder for other people in the community... The very people complaining about how "w0ke" this movie is for having "forced diversity", the very people who also lob that stolen word at harmless things like the LITTLE MERMAID remake and virtually anything "W0ke Disney" puts out these days, the very people who had literal shit-fits over MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, every new STAR WARS movie, GHOSTBUSTERS 2016, SHE-RA AND THE PRINCESSES OF POWER, new MUPPET BABIES, any new STAR TREK media, the list goes on and on... That's The Spot. Funny how some superhero movies, even animated superhero movies, have these villains who feel like they've been wronged and feel like they're entitled to something...

Just more texture to this ludicrously-textured layer cake movie... Yeah, CAKE itself is a big part of the movie, too. Look at that-

All this, amidst a backdrop of hundreds of Spider-People, a surrealistic smorgasbord of visual styles and animation techniques (Spider-Punk alone, YOWZA YOWZA YOWZA!), a multiverse-spanning story, and at the end... All of it tying back to who Miles Morales wants to be. How he wants to tell HIS story... When he defies Miguel on the train, it's a monumental moment...

And the story isn't even over yet... This movie is something special.

HELLO :D I have a few questions regarding your art-

First off- how do you render? Specifically when choosing the differences in material lighting? There’s just a sort of dramatic lighting that your art has that always makes it look extremely epic

Second off- What’s your method for anatomy? Like, Do you use a much of ovals/rectangles, wing it like a madman, or etc? And how do you define each part of the body? (Or separate hair segments?)

And Thirdly- how do you add volume and consistency to your work? Every design that I see of yours just looks like it jumped straight from a 3D movie screen, and really curious as to how you do all that!

Also- holy cow I freaking love your art so much- like I just found out you drew like half of my favourite art pieces out there. And I just love looking at it. It’s kind of like a golden caramel apple, if that makes any sense!!

And thank you for your time!!!

Thank you so much :DDD <333

Hoo boy where do I begin :'D

The first statement I need to make is that my main method is 'fuck around and find out'. Literally. Also sorry if some of the explanations don't make any sense, English is not my first language.

Here's kinda step by step of how my drawing process looks like.

Sketch, then rough cleaning and adding monochrome colors, it's totally unnecessary, but I like to do it just to see how the drawing would look later with dynamic lightning. Then move onto lineart, used to draw it on another layer on top of the sketch, but I switched to just correcting the lines and eareasing what I don't want from the sketch. It's kinda more fun and takes less time. Then come the base colors and adding shadows. What I most often do is add shading on the color layers and then on top of all of them draw a full shadow.

Like this, then multiply and fuck around with opacity. This makes the characters pop out even more and adds depth to them. Then add lightning, and sometimes effects from saved pngs. For example, I often use this site for material textures: https://www.transparenttextures.com/

2. When it comes to anatomy, I most often use existing pose references, not fully copying them but like putting them together like a collage. A head here, hands there, I have full boards on Pinterest dedicated solely to different body parts. In the past I was heavily using whole sketches and body pose references, but over the time I was able to somehow figure out the anatomy on my own. To some degree. I still have no idea how to properly draw hands. What I'm saying is that it's good to base your art on existing references (NOT COPY THEM) but use as a guide, until you get a hang of it.

3. Lately to do something more stylistic and to bring out the volume I started doing this notion in the shadows:

(also a sneak peak of next piece ;3)

I have no idea how to call it, but it makes things pop out.

Anddd I finally got around doing more dynamic poses and dramatic positioning. Bringing parts of the drawing forward, and leaning some further, going wild with blur filter and using black as guides and contrast.

So that might be why it looks more like screenshot of some movie, which is such a big compliment to me imma cry.

So, yeah that's kinda how I work :') Hope it helped and made sense to some degree.

[lpfreakification]

Unorganized thoughts?

1. Felt quite on top of things during work tonight to make up for being lazy all week. Either that or hormones. Blaming period XP

2. Doodled during work felt good, too. I doodled another (human) Dratica head that made me realize that I need to practice drawing heads again. Tried to remember my proportions on the next doodle. Almost elongated the face again 😅 Lastly, doodled from a nicely rendered face of Cloud. Got the head/face shapes right, but the eyes = yikes? Could've done better on the eyes, ngl.

3. Made me feel nostalgic about how I used to draw from pictures on my PSP so often X3 (I miss it)

4. Summers this decade have been quite eventful.

2020 = COVID-19 Pandemic

2021 = Chris' gaming lovestreams + the start of my KH journey XD

2022 = online drawing sessions + shiny watercolors

2023 = successful summer plans >X) (+ Gensin)

5. The Void... what was once a dark hole where lost words go. Now, don't need it anymore :)

6. Thinking about doing the ReCoded finale b4 the semester starts on Sept 6th or closer to the date 🤔 That way, I can get Peli done in time.

7. So glad I'm not going to the beach tomorrow. It's usually an uncomfortable time bcuz of the heat, mosquitos, feeling worse about my belly in a bathing suit, the sand 🙃, ofteb awful timing bcuz of period, socializing XP, + not fond of going in the water (hydrophobic maybe?).

8. If DaArk's human name were to be Derrick, what would Dratica's human name be? 🤔 One time in Acting for Animators, one classmate thought he'd look like a "Blake." Dumbfounded, + yet, it's been lingering in my head since.

9. I wanna add some chub to some OCs so I can feel better about my belly 😖

10. Elephant :P I wanna draw an elephant?

11. I'm honestly don't like my phone's camera for taking pics of my doodles. I feel like they come out blurry no matter how many times I try to focus. That's the main reason for the lack of uploading doodles on IG X( I'll figure this out eventually XP

12. I pretend to be a viewer reading this. I ask myself, "Is this interesting?" Sometimes. Like a pen that writes, but then skips or like a light bulb burning bright but dims, flickers, or glows again.

13. I'm feeling more conscious about the top of my back + the back of my neck. Conscious of how I recline, how I lay in bed (side sleeper, i am), slouching, + bending over to doodle (to the point my whole face is up close to the paper 🙂).

14. Ew. My mind's imagining how much heavy breathing I've done while I painted. *thinks back to the last one I made* 😐 Thank goodness I did not get covid! (Maybe I did but didn't know).

15. Quite the physical toll on me this year. From January to March, I went to the gym. But wasn't feeling it + would feel quite sickly (like sneezing, constant runny nose, + got stomach flu for the 1st time?). From late March to early June, sitting on my butt for 2 months straight, doing two two-minute animations for a semester. It was such a wise decision to leave my main day job bcuz that was a lot of work for those animations. Noticed gray hairs for my bday. (I'm a 29yo lady!) Got super lazy after the semester until late June. Went back to kickboxing. July was a better productive month. Currently, August, where my period's sucking up my energy. Nah, I'm just being lazy again?

It's 11:48 pm + I can feel myself drifting off to sleep. Imma end it here. If they're going to the beach + the weather is favorable, then I can go out to the backyard to do something.

Nite yall!

(OMG, I FOUND MY FAVORITE GIF AGAIN!)

(It's the "dreamplz" gif from DeviantArt)

(I used to end my posts w/ this gif all the time + I miss this so much 😭)

Strictly Professional

Corpse Husband x Reader (Gender Neutral)

Warnings: Swearing

Genre: HUMOR, Fluff, RPF (Real Person Fic)

Summary: A slip of the tongue leads Corpse to make an unexpected confession which leads to him getting lectured by his best friend. That’s all you need to know, the rest shall unfold before your eyes.

Requested by Anon. Hi dear! Thank you so much for your lovely request! I’m so sorry it’s been so long overdue but here it finally is and I really hope you come across it and read it. If so I hope you enjoy it! Love, Vy ❤

I’ve buried my head under my arms, resting it on my desk as my ears are still violated by the hollering coming from my headset. I don’t know what in me snapped out of nowhere or what caused the slip-up, but what matters is that it happened and now I’m in some hot water. I’m practically the soup everyone in this Discord call at the moment will be eating for dinner tonight, getting a real kick at my expense - some even having the audacity to be mad at me over it - ahem, Rae, ahem - but bottom line: I won’t live this down easily.

“Hey everyone! What did I miss?“ Sykkuno, who was running late and missed this entire debacle makes an appearance. If it were any other occasion, I’d be overjoyed to hear he’s finally joining us, but his question of what he had missed renders me only able to cringe and wait for my friends’ next move.

“Sykkuno!“ Rae exclaims ecstatically, “Oh, strap in, imma tell you what you missed...“

“No, you won’t tell him, Rae.“ Toast cuts her off, sounding uncharacteristically serious, especially when taken into account how hard he was laughing just a moment ago, “This is Corpse’s tale to tell, don’t spare him the shame of telling it one more time.“

And just when I thought this fucker would prove himself to be a true friend...

“Oof, this sounds serious...“ Sykkuno says to fill the silence I purposely let linger just so I don’t give these bullies the satisfaction of hearing my embarrassment all over again even though they inevitably will.

“It is...“ I sigh with a heavy heart, hiding my face in the palm of my hand, “It’s really bad and embarrassing and...I’d rather not retell it at all let alone for a second time, but here it goes...“ I inhale as much air as I can as a method of gaining confidence before I start talking, “So you know MGK and I made a song. Yeah well, we’re gonna be making a music video for it and I asked Rae to be in it. Thing is, I wanted to ask Y/N first. Buckle up, this is where it starts going downhill: ok so I went over to their place so we could just chit chat an marathon a few movies like we usually do over the weekends but I also wanted to bring up the whole ‘hey, wanna be in my music video’ thing but didn’t know how. Mind you, we were drinking beers this whole time, might’ve had a few too many actually. Ok, we definitely had a few too many, but back on track: as I was blabbering and stumbling over my words, nervous as all hell and unable to string the simple question inside my head, all Y/N did was tilt their head and smile at me. You know, the odd thing is it was a genuine smile, not a drunken grin like you’d expect from someone on their fourth beer bottle. And then, out of the blue, they had the audacity to hit me with: ‘You’re so cute’ and I just sat there frozen for a few seconds. I mean, my reaction was on point - who wouldn’t react like that if their crush told them they found them cute. Anyway - I was like ‘what?’ and then, out of an even bluer blue, they freaking kissed me. I nearly had a heart attack damn it!“

“And he never asked them to be in the DAYWALKER music video!“ Rae clearly couldn’t hold it in any longer.

“I didn’t get the time! I was out of there in the blink of an eye!“ I bark, feeling my face heating up with embarrassment and regret. God, I should never ask how stupid I can get because I keep surprising myself in the end with just how far my stupidity goes. It’s fucking insane.

“Oh God, poor Y/N.“ Sykkuno sighs, sounding only a tiny bit as though he’s about to laugh. I appreciate his self-control honestly, the rest of these fuckers were dying laughing as though our friends and my crush kissing me and me responding like I had an allergic reaction was the best joke to ever be told.

“Poor Y/N?“ I snap a little, “What about me?“

“Yeah, poor Y/N!“ Rae backs Sykkuno up, “Poor Y/N and poor me for the missed opportunity to me in a music video for a song of one of my best friends with another one of my best friends. Corpse, you better fix this!!“

“How?!“ I’m aware I sound desperate but I seriously wanna fix it just have no idea how to go about it. I mean, if this looney group of nine people over here don’t come up with a plan no one will so not all hope for me is dead just yet. Even if we all had only one braincell we’d still be able to figure it out - I mean, ten braincells ain’t as bad as it sounds. Truth be told, Y/N’s the real brain of the group and they’d most definitely be able to help me - so fuck the irony.

“Call them.“ Sykkuno suggests so casually as though it’s a no-brainer. I’d go as far as to say his nonchalance almost made me laugh. Has he forgotten who he’s talking to? 

“No way.“ I turn that down real quick, unable to even imagine the course of that phone call without cringing.

“No, Sykkuno’s right, call them right here right now. Ask them to star in the music video and then swerve the conversation to that kiss.“ Charlie’s suddenly decided to join the torturing being preformed upon me over here.

“What will I even say? I have no idea what to tell them!“ I complain, aware that I sound like a tantrum-throwing toddler but it’s really not my fault.

“Corpse. Corpse dear, listen to me, follow each word I say really carefully, ok?“ Rae asks, her voice now pitched as though she’s addressing an actual child. Yeah, that’s her well-known way of mocking me. “How about you say the actual fucking words. You know: ‘Hey Y/N, MGK and I are making a music video for DAYWALKER, wanna be in it?’“

I sigh, clearly defeated.

I pull out my phone, muttering to the crowd I’m about to speak in front of to be quiet as I put the ringing call on speaker, sweating like a pig the whole time. The room has risen in temperature and this hoodie has thickened, providing more warmth that’s more suffocating than comforting when it’s a hundred degrees outside. Or when I’m about to talk to my crush after THAT incident.

“Hello?“ Y/N’s voice on the other side rips me from my thoughts’ grasp, reminding me I’m on a mission.

“Hey Y/N, what’s up?“ I reply a little too quickly. Not giving them the time to reply with anything, I continue: “Hey Y/N, MGK and I are making a music video for DAYWALKER, wanna be in it?“

DAMN IT WHY DID YOU HAVE TO SAY IT WORD FOR WORD?!?!

“Oh....“ They sound confused - and rightfully so - but then regain their composure finally, “I-I’d love to. Thanks for the opportunity, Corpse. I’m so happy you’ve made it so far. I’d be honored to be in the music video.“

Ok, that’s partial relief. Now - time for the second phase of this plan

“Uh....“ and there goes my whole vocabulary out the window, “You’re welcome.“

“Cool...cool...“ they mutter awkwardly, clearly looking for a way to end the call, “Um, by the way...this is strictly professional, right?“

No! No it’s not! Of course it isn’t! I’ve been head over heels for you for a year now, damn it!

“Of course, o-of course it is. No worries.“ I reply, once again, a little too quickly. Faster than I could’ve prevented it.

“Ok cool...well, text me the details....“ They once again trail off, hoping I’ll catch the hint.

And so I succumb.

“Will do.“ I sigh, “See ya.“

“See ya.“ They reply and hang up.

I’m left there staring at my phone screen with utter self-disappointment and frustration that’s so intense I cannot even express it in any way.

The whole lobby is at a loss of words too - all nine of them astonished by my stupidity. Fortunately though, Charlie is quick to pull himself together and speak up because God forbid Charlie ever falls speechless, then we’d be SERIOUSLY in danger.

[parachutingkitten]

Imma go on a rant here, and like... this isn't something I care about... at all, but screw it, I'm tired, and this irritates me, it's rant time.

Anyway, it's a Tommy tweet. And like, Tommy tweets are great and they can be cute and fun but when they go into establishing important lore, I feel like they should be taken with a massive grain of salt or just completely ignored as a suggested theory because most of them are just... so weird on so many levels, and are very clearly just his personal opinion or HC, and yet people treat them as fact and... this one just got under my skin something different.

It's surrounding the whole "What is Lloyd's element" debate, and in season 4, Chen calls him the "Master of Power" which would imply that a good or at least acceptable name for his element would be power. But Tommy... doesn't like that name, so his retcon is that Chen is a villain, so you can't trust him about... what elements are called?

Like, why would he lie about this?! What possible motive would he have?! Does this imply that he's lying about other element names? And what would it profit him to call elements incorrectly? What name could Lloyd’s power possibly have that would be so earthshattering that he needed to call it something entirely different?! He's studied the elements, his whole plan revolves around getting all of them, that takes research, it's not like you can argue he's uninformed on the topic or something- he's spent his life obsessing over it! If anyone could give us an answer, he might very well be a good option! How does this line of logic make any sense?! I don't get it. Because he's a bad guy you can't trust that he's truthful about basic names of stuff?

Like it's possible that there is a storyline you could write where he misleads Lloyd about what his element really is and later reveals the true nature of it once he's obtained the power or something, but if you were gonna make some sorta revelation about Lloyd's element... time has long passed for it to happen.

No no no. This is a case of the writers needing a name for the element for the tournament, picking one, and then Tommy trying to backtrack afterwards cuz he doesn't like it or has some, much more convoluted thoughts about how it all works.

Why are we gatekeeping basic lore about the show's main character? Why?! Maybe you can say that because Lloyd's power hasn't had a master before, it doesn't have a name, that's why it's referred to as so many different things! That even keeps it open for a reveal later down the road if you really wanted (although, at this point idk of anything you could do that would really be that much of a twist). There's this whole thing about "essense" in some of his tweets where creation and destruction come from, and supposedly whatever Lloyd's power is is an "essense" too, but like, Lloyd's power functions as an element, it's treated as an element. What makes essenses any different than elements? And why does it necessitate that he can't be called the "Master of [whatever]" that title doesn't even necessitate the power be an element! Why have this distinction? Why make it so complicated?

And why isn't any of this worldbuilding, that's pretty damn vital if it's supposed to be canon, estabLISHED IN THE SHOW?!?!?

The writers gave lloyd this vague green energy in season 2, and instead of just addressing it by giving it an explanation, or keeping it as a funny running joke like the show's tried to do, Tommy comes in here like "Oh, the main character's power is ~undisclosed~" implying that there is an answer, but they're just not telling us. Not only does it withhold information, but by refusing to give the fandom an acceptable name to use to even reference this power, it renders basic discussions about the show massively confusing and contentious. He dances around the information like the fandom needs to wait another ten seasons before we can figure out basic facts about the main character that aren't even set up to be a mystery.

THE HELL IS THIS?!?!?!?

I'm sorry. I need to stop. I have gone on a little too long here. See, this is why I'm not a ninjago lore person. It would break me... so quickly.

Anyway. Goodnight everyone.

Side note: Please don't try and argue with me about what Lloyd's power is, like I said at the top of the post, I honestly don't care. I just wanna watch the color ninjas go spin.

3Gate questions will not leave me alone so imma ask. What would WRH have even DONE if he'd succeeded in any of his attempted assaults of NMJ, pre-Sunshot? Would he have honestly let NMJ go after in order to wait for him to "ripen"? (That wording creeped me out so bad, so good job there!) Or would there have been a war for him kidnapping the son of a Sect Leader bc he just couldn't wait? Is there any difference in the quality of the cultivation boost with a willing vs unwilling furnace? Is it possible at all for a furnace to have sex without dual cultivation occurring? What would happen if he had sex with a non-cultivator?

There are SO MANY possible dark AU versions of Three Gates. There’s a world where WRH succeeded and became addicted to the power boost, stealing NMJ away at once and starting a war no one was ready for. There’s a world where NMJ is missing, presumed dead, and no one finds out where he’s gone until years later when it’s too late. There’s a world where he succeeded but maintained his restraint, leaving NMJ still in Qinghe but with nightmares and trauma and a terrible secret he had to keep from everyone even as WRH mocks him with it with hints in public. There’s a world where WRH uses his political power to demand a marriage, and claims NMJ as his own in a legal way, a way that means NMJ can’t say no - and there’s a world where he makes that demand to Lao Nie and a world where he makes it to NMJ himself, a world where Qinghe is too weak to resist such an offer. There’s a world where NMJ is convinced that it’s the right thing to do no matter how much older or cruel WRH seems to be, a world where he’s brought up thinking that WRH’s behavior is normal, a world where he decides he doesn’t care and hates the idea anyway. 

There’s a world where NMJ gets rescued, whether by his father or his sect or his friends, and they take care of him as he heals; there’s a world where NMJ rescues himself - a world where he escapes back to Qinghe, a world where he runs away to hide himself as a rogue cultivator, a world in which he waits until after he’s married WRH to kill him and his kin and claims all of Qishan Wen in the name of Qinghe Nie. There’s a world where he kills them all and then himself and the only thing left behind is a power vacuum. 

There’s a world where NMJ being a furnace becomes known and suddenly he goes from seventh most appealing male cultivator to first, because wanting power isn’t solely limited to men; a world where there are dozens of applications to marry him, each more tempting than the next with the prizes he could win for Qinghe.  There’s a world where he has to be on his guard against anyone who tries to be his friend because yes, there’s a difference between willing and unwilling, with willing being a better boost, and that means the furnace needs to be on the lookout for people who will put in the time and effort to woo them so that they’ll be willing until they’ve gotten all the use they can out of them before casting them aside - although having  truly interested partners on both sides, actual dao companions who love each other, is best and most effective of all. There’s a world where NMJ rendered jaded and cynical by this, a world where he’s deceived by someone he trusted, a world where it all works out somehow by sheer dumb luck. 

(There’s a world where sleeping with a furnace can help even crippled core-less cultivators regain what they’ve lost, and it only becomes a question of how far those cultivators’ loved ones would go to help them, even at the cost of sacrificing someone else.)

There’s a world where JGY is less kind than he had the chance to be, where his mother’s paranoia sunk too deep into his bones to be extracted and everything he pretended to be to win WRH’s favor he actually is. There’s a world where he facilitated rather than stopped - a world where his goal really was to get NMJ out of the way and rule his own sect through the façade of NHS, a world where NHS lets him and a world where NHS loves his half brother more than his full brother and doesn’t. A world where JGY figures out the furnace thing and thinks about ruling through NMJ instead. A world where NHS figures it out, and who even knows what he does with that knowledge from there on out. There’s a world where JGS wasn’t so fucking stupid and figured out early on that for the small, small price of a name and some pretension at respect he could win a too-young-to-know-better JGY over to his side, whether to set up a marriage with the heir of Qinghe Nie or to use as a spy for his own purposes or even just to bring him home and rub his poaching in the Nie’s face - he likes me better than you, just like a toddler. A world where JGY agrees to that and then regrets it; a world where he doesn’t. 

So many worlds! I could go on and on forever :) there’s a reason I write so many fics that basically go “and this is the start of a 100k story that I just don’t have time to write!”

If anyone ever wants to pick up one of the above ideas - whether as a Three Gates AU or just a divergence from canon - please feel free, just be sure to link me (via DM or ask, for some reason I never get notified when people just @ me) so that I can enjoy reading them as well. :)

[fuck-customers]

I work roadside assistance, we handle multiple products: some covered by insurance, some by warranty. We can handle a tow, a repair on spot (jumpstart a dead battery, change a tire etc.), occasionally a replacement (rental) vehicle for X days, depending on the conditions of the specific product. We are an external company contracted by these people (insurance providers, car manufacturers) to handle the assistance. We are not actually Insurace, Inc. or Carmaker.

The only condition for all of this is that the car must be immobile. A break down counts, so does a flat tire. But also anything that renders the car legally "unfit" for the road, even if it's technically fine, including: A big crack in the windshield on the driver's side, leaking fluids, the headlights on the inner (left) side not working, I think that also includes the sideview mirror at the driver's side being torn off... There's a few, we got a list somewhere. Imma use "immobile" and "unfit for the road" here, not sure what the actual English terms are.

Most people understand that, but sometimes, they call asking for something we literally cannot provide. Recently, a man called up. He was abroad and had a brush up with another car or something, he wasn't very specific. However, his own car was not damaged, except for the pain/varnish. The call was like 5 minutes. At the beginning, he ranted about how I'm like the 4th person he's talking to and it's so hard to get someone who can actually help him. Then it went like this:

Him: The lady in that other place I called said I was entitled to 6 days of a replacement vehicle from you. Me: Yes, but we are roadside assistance for immobile vehicles. These conditions only apply if your car is unfit for the road. Him: But I can't use it while it's being repaired! Me: Yes, but that doesn't make it immobile. A scratched up car is still fine for the road. Even abroad. Him: But I'm entitled to 6 days of a replacement car! Me: Yes, but only if your own car is immobile. Is it? Him: No, it's not. But I'm supposed to get a car from you for 6 days! Me: Yes, if your own car is legally unfit for the road. And you just said it wasn't. Him: But it's not a small scratch, I'll need to have the whole car repainted. Me: Yes, but that still doesn't make it immobile. It needs to be immobile, for example because of a car crash or a breakdown, for you to be entitled to a rental car. Him: But I'm supposed to have a replacement car for 6 days! Me: I'm sorry, did you hear me right? You are entitled to 6 days, yes, But. Only. If. Your. Own. Car. Is. Immobile. Him: Ugh, why do I ever bother calling you people! *hangs up*

I've had difficult clients who refused to understand this before, but I've never had to go back and forth like this, rephrasing the same damn thing for 3 minutes straight. Did he think repeating it 100 times was a magic spell that would change the conditions or something? Not to mention he was in a country famous for long strikes so getting him one might take longer that the actual repair on his own car...

That day was already tough and my patience was wearing thin. Well, at least another client I got a tow for actually asked if we had a survey he could fill to compliment my customer service. He did that before I even called an actual tow truck! I actually had to ask my manager how that works. It was a tough case, I couldn't find his insurance at first and we figured out he had it under the wrong license plate, but all the other data (including VIN) matched. So... I guess he was just happy we figured it out and I could get his car towed after all?

I left after that, but another coworker was supposed to call him later to make sure it all went well and I wrote down the time of the call and phone number, so if he was still happy after the tow, she could let the managers know. We don't do surveys, but all calls are recorded and if someone explicitly compliments us, we do let the managers know when we send to file to them (they check and close them). Dude made my day.

Find my Way Back Home  X

Summary: Bucky Buchanan Barnes is smitten to a four insignia military officer—you. How do you think things will unfold? 

 Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Reader

 Word Count: 1,438

 Warning: Swearing?

After the quinjet landed at the hangar the team were were quick to scram off from the jet. The way to the compound was surrounded with silence, not that there's still needed to be said really. At least not for now when everyone is eager to go to their room and slump their exhausted body in their comfortable bed, take a shower after the dreading mission.

Before everyone could completely parted ways you informed them about the debriefing that is about to happen in an hour or so.

When the team already had their well deserve rest AAR took place. You congratulated the team for the job well done and declared another mission accomplished.

When the team was tidying up their things ready to move out from the room you decided that maybe they deserve a little treat. In some way or another the team already manage to crept their way into your heart, you wanted to somehow thanks them for their cooperation and extending their effort in helping you to accomplish your main purpose.

Since your departure from the compound is near coming, already attaining your main purpose in staying—thanks to the team, you pitched on a little gathering it is.

"So who's up for a pizza later" you beam. Sam was the first one to display his eagerness about the idea.

"Damn hell I'm down!" he exclaimed. You playfully glared at his way and reprimanded him for his language.

"Watch is Wilson"

"Sorry ma'am" he apologized.

After that you quickly dismissed the team, looking at the clock you remember you still have some things to settle in about an hour—maybe after having a lil nap.

When the team exit the room they were met by a struggling SHIELD agent dragged by men in uniform, shouting and grunting filled the hallway as the agent continues to shout profanities and protesting to be let go.

When the men in uniform passed you they rendered a salute and after you've reciprocated it they quickly proceed to their business. The team were slightly at sixes and sevens but when they were about to turn on you and ask what's going on, your form was already disappearing from afar retreating.

"What the hell was that?" Tony questioned the look in his face mirrors the reaction of the rest of the team.

"No idea" Steve replied.

Bucky can't keep his curiosity at bay so he decided to figured it out himself—by looking for you. When he tried knocking at your chamber you're not there, as FRIDAY asserted. When Bucky asked the AI where you are it leads him to your personal office in the compound.

Bucky knocked and when he heard the muffled sound of come in he then barged into the room. You were shocked at first upon seeing him, quite baffled but then you immediately collected yourself and asked him what he was doing in your office. Not that you don't mean to see him, in fact it was part of your to do list to find and talk to him today, it's just that it is already an unspoken rule that when you're in your office no one is allowed to come unless it was Fury himself of another men in uniform. You didn't anticipate for Bucky to come and visit you.

"I was meaning to—" his talking were halted when another knock in the door ring the room. Shit, you can't have him here. You were known by your men that you were extremely uptight with rules you've implemented, seeing that Bucky is not wearing any uniform, you can't be seen having him here in your sacred sanctum—or else they would have others ideas, which none you wish to mention.

You were certain that it was one of your soldier knocking ay your doorstep asking permission to enter, because it's been the meeting you've been anticipating after the meeting with the Avengers—this is the errand you were pertaining to attend.

"Shit!" you muttered under your breath, you looked at Bucky with slight panic and with your reaction he was quite frazzled as well now.

"Quick hide!" you whisper shout at him, he didn't have any time to question what was happening when you were already shoving him in a small closet. You were quiet having a hard time fitting his herculean figure at the small cabinet but nevertheless he fitted due to your violent pushing, a series of grunts and complaints were released but you were quick to shushed him which is surprisingly, he was quick to obliged.

"Stay there and utter not a single word" you instructed firmly, pointing at him like a how a mother would to his toddler and Bucky was like a good puppy that just nodded his head. You closed the closet and stride your way back to your table slightly fixing the little gruff of your plain white shirt then immediately muttering another come in.

A man in uniform then entered the room and quickly rendered a salute, Bucky would once in a while peak at the whole of the cabinet and it would slightly shake, you would then glanced at it— or rather glare at it signalizing him to best behave.

"Ma'am, Cadet Alfonso reports to make a statement" Bucky couldn't quite see your face because of the back of the soldier facing him and his figure were slightly covering you but he was certain the you nodded upon the the soldier's statement.

"The mole have been terminated and send to the security like as ordered ma'am. Sergeant Maranzano would also like to extend his gratitude for the immediate action carried out" Bucky couldn't care less about what was the man is talking about but he figured out it must has to do something with the agent being dragged out. This must also attached to the security breaching issue. What caught his attention though is when the man asked you about the matter of your return to the military based and your answer slightly knocked  his heart sideways.

"Inform him that he could expect my arrival as early as tomorrow's afternoon" you replied.

"Will that be all ma'am?" he asked and you nodded followed by " You were now dismissed".

When the soldier left the room Bucky quickly brought his self out of the closet and looked at you sadly, your brows knitted at his feature.

"You were leaving?" he asked directly, he already knew the answer but he was still hoping your answer would alter, maybe he could change it.

"I'm not really meant to stay" you answered, slumping your body at your turning chair.

Yes, Bucky knew that your stay were not meant to be permanent and he was gullible enough to fell in love with you with such short span of time, but it's not that he can help it. He would if he could but he couldn't and that broke his heart into pieces knowing what will fold right after this day—or hell, it's just an hour to count.

"Why can't you stay, your chemistry with the team is great" he coax and you just laughed at him like what he utters was a joke. True, you had a great time working with the team but it's not just meant for you.

"I was train to hold a gun and get my face smeared with dirt while we fight in the actual battle ground were bullets were loaded to shower each other, enemy and friends. Yes we both fight bad guys but I think I'm not made for what you daily does and I fight different kind of bad guys. Wearing a super hero uniform and bearing the badge of Avenger is not really for me so I think Imma keep my military uniform and four star insignia" you  replied. For a moment Bucky was silent, at least he tried right?

"Anyway, what were you doing here Barnes?" you asked and Bucky was drawn out of his trance. Yeah, what the hell was he even suppose to be doing in here? Earlier he knew what it was but right of the moment prior plan jump off the window and without thinking he utters what he was dreading to say since the moment he saw you. Completely disregarding the repercussions.

"Because I don't suppose you're here to bring me coffee at the middle of the afternoon" you teased but Bucky didn't looked amuse. In fact your remark were not too far from what he was planning to asked.

"No, no of course not" he affirmed.

"I'm here to asked you on a date"

[gods-at-gunpoint]

howdy everyone! first monthly update for drgag, but first, thank you all so much for the support thusfar! im crying guys

lets get into it ! 

november’s been a bit of a hectic month due to the end of my schools semester rounding the corner along with the general chaotic energy of this time of the year, but without further ado!

main takeaways from this month of work has been

-loads of sprites! except. i realized pretty late in the process that i was making them in a very inefficient way and taking like. way longer on each one than i needed to because of this . like 

for anyone making fangans as well its really a learning process and mass producing sprites and shit is a PROCESS. but i feel like the easiest way ive found to make different poses nd shit quicker is to like. LABEL my folders . when i make eyes that i know are gonna change i go in and make a folder where ill put all that. and then when it comes to bodies which i didnt think too hard about at first, especially when it comes to arms... like the best thing i think thats streamlined has been to just draw the whole ass torso and render it and THEN add arms to that, rather than drawing the arms and coloring the arms on the same damn layer as everything else... whereas you have to select the arms and then make a new layer and go BACK and recolor the torso bc u fucked up like... yeah.... 

ive mostly worked on kimiko and itsuki so far because i just love conveying their personalities a lot through their sprites, gonna post a few of my favs-

crackheads. i also made emi sprites but my clip studio file got corrupted? i have to fix that shit msldfkjdf add this to my to do list siri please smflksdf ...ok moving on

-splash art coming along slowly but steadily... will get there eventually its kinda just farther down on my list of priorities rn lol heres a kimiko wip tho

-writing!!! i revised . i HARDCORE revised how i decided to open the game like. shit. fuck. i just had a thought while i was watching nichijou one day and shit i just. damn. i dont wanna say anything bc im like so fucking excited about it but basically it calls for about 30 more scene cgs that i had not prior planned so ive been. grinding so much to try and get those illustrated mkanhuyfysoif but yeah!! i rewrote the whole ass introduction to the prologue god bless . the prologues all done written now but ofc im probs gonna go over it like 60 more times lmao

in other parts of writing i finished about half of the first and third trials, and most of chapter 1′s writing overall... we rlly out here gettin that bread bruh

with writing i guess the biggest thing is like. i have a fuckton of gaps where i just need to put like. the In Between shit mlksdfjiusdf lmao but yeahg. we out here

-programming shit!!! god i . worked on implementing UI into unity and holy shit it was all on fire my pain is immeasurable im not a fucking compsci major fmlkjasuhf98asdofp my compsci major friend was looking over my shoulder the whole time and shaking his head njhysuadgf8sduoifjkdsf but like. basically i figured how to put some basic text box shit up in unity but ive mostly just been grinding away at practicing related C# shit in order to get my life together. also ive been throwing around a lot of UI ideas like 

i dont fucking know. i think im gonna have the whole student handbook on the side of it with shortcuts? at least the transcript, save, load, etc commands on the right side of it... also im thinking of making it much more minimalist than how the DR dialogue boxes are usually bc usually theyre like. largely flashy but yknow i . i dont know i just really like how minimalistic UI looks but i may or may not change my mind on this. god skdfjlsdkf

-here have whatever the fuck this is 

god okay this got lengthy real quick so imma scuttl away now until next time... thanks yall again for your support!!!! i have some breaks from school soon so hopefully i can like. get a lot more stuff done especially w my sprite epiphanies lmao mlsfkjsdf

goodnight!! 

-annie 

art up there without text:

sorry I might spam you with asks because I LOVE THESE THINGS AND I HAVE BEEN AWAY. for the reader ask thing! favorite fic trope? thing the fandom loves that you just don't "get"? AND who is your BroTP? bonus question: what the hell is a "BroTP"?

Don’t apologize! xD I was literally like 8D when I got all of these yesterday! I might have to pace myself here, so I’m sorry If I’ll be a bit slower in replying to all of these, but no, honestly I love these things too, so just like..thank you?!?!

What is your favourite fic trope?

Ohhh, so many good ones out there...Umm, really anything where a character as to adjust or adapt to a new environment or new circumstances though, I think? Crossovers, normally powerful characters being rendered helpless, Redemtion Arcs, really anything of that sort. It just gives such a good opportunity to really delve into and explore characters and see how they react to everything? You have characters encountering so many new conflicts to struggle with and you get to delve into so many sticky emotions! 

I think one of my favorite variations of this, weather in canon or in fanfiction has to be when an inhuman character -- usually very powerful, oftentimes rather haughty and distant, cold and unfathomable -- experiences a character arc where they become more human. Where they discover empathy and compassion, where they have these moments where they’re like. “Welp. Damn. I guess I actually do care about this person.” Oh, but I love it best when they don’t entirely use all of their inhumanity either, where they’re something that just kind of in-between.  It’s one of my favorite things, I mean I guess that’s obvious really I mean Some of my favorite characters: John Uskglass, Morpheus....yeah...xD

What thing that your fandom loves do you just not “get”?

Hrmmm...honestly I think I’m fairly in-step with most of JSMN fandom? Even most of the popular headcanons and ideas I’ve seen that I don’t necessarily agree with, I can understand where people are coming from with them.

 Who is your BroTP?

BroTP: Like an OTP, only for Friendships rather than Romantic Relationships

Imma have to say Childermass and Vinculus, most definately here. I love their whole dynamic and just..the understanding that the two of them have? It was just so clear from the start, where instead of choosing to use the spells Norrell gave him Childermass chose his own path, and Took Vinculus to the Pineapple to sit him down for a talk. Their interactions are just fantastic and I need more of them together, just...bantering their way across England as they try to figure out what it is that Vinculus says

Anonymous said: (in ref to this fic) As ;) revenge ;) for Hermann lovingly teasing Newt about Newt's nature show as a child, Newt finds a safari hat and pretends to film a segment on The Rare and Lovely Hermann Mathematician. Stuff like "Much of the Hermann's appearance is used to attract a mate: his elegantly angular bone structure, his soft and brown doe eyes, his beautifully pale complexion, his impossibly long limbs, his thin frame perfect for cuddling and carrying, his enormous cock..." "NEWTON!" "You started this!"

Anonymous said: Okay but the first time Newt saw Hermann's dick, Newt came in his pants a little because Newt is a damn size queen and Hermann is hung asf. Newt just can't stop imagining pinning Hermann to the bed and riding that giant cock. Hermann doesn't even know that his dick is huge until Newt tells him it is. "Jeez, no wonder you wear those baggy grandpa pants. It must be a fucking hassle to find pants that fit comfortably over this behemoth."

Anonymous said: Newt convinces Hermann to wear short shorts while Hermann does yoga. Newt's shorts are a little baggy on Hermann, but Newt is still getting quite an eyeful (the shorts can't contain Hermann's massive dick. It's true and we both know it. Also Hermann has to wear extra soft tank tops when he does yoga, because of his extremely sensitive nipples)

SECTION B: roleplay.........

Anonymous said: (re: any number of herm centric sickfic/hospital fic ive written LOL i cant remember which) As soon as Hermann's all better, Newt still insists that Hermann take it easy. Newt puts on a slutty little nurse uniform and orders Hermann to "Please just lie back, Dr. Gottlieb. I believe a ~very thorough~ examination is in order. Just to be safe, of course." "Of course." "Poor dear! Are you nervous? Do you need to hold my hand?"

Anonymous said: Newmann and roleplay. Newt loves how passionate Hermann is about space. So Newt dresses up as a sexy alien (because of course Newt would) and asks Hermann (the very handsome human space explorer) to please undress. "My race is very curious to about human anatomy, Dr. Gottlieb. And with such an aesthetically pleasing specimen! Oh, how can I resist? Please? It's for science."

Anonymous said: One of the nicest surprises after they're married is that they both still have wet dreams about each other. Newt grinds up against Hermann's cute flat ass like "Oh, Professor Gottlieb, I'm so sorry! Please, I'll do anything to earn your forgiveness!"; and Hermann rubs his big dick against Newt's lovely bubble butt like "Oh, thank you, Doctor Geiszler, you're so kind to me! Please use me however you wish!" (Newt has a sexy professor kink and Hermann has a Newt controlling him kink.)

Anonymous said: Newt (greaser au or otherwise) SO has a thing for Hermann as a librarian. “Hermann, can I please dress you up as a slutty librarian? And then I’ll fuck you as hard as you like, as an apology. You know, because I’m a terrible patron. I’ve never returned a book on time, and I have a nasty habit of dog earrings pages.” “Is that so?” “Honestly, I don’t know WHY you put up with me. Don’t you want to give me a chance to make it up to you? I’m the ;)best;) at apologies.”

Anonymous said: I read your most recent newmann Halloween fic, and I *LOVE* the idea of them roleplaying with Hermann as the slutty little lab aid who needs Dr. Geiszler's firm hand to guide him. I can just imagine! "Mr. Gottlieb, would you like to explain why I caught you in the lab with your hand down your pants?" "Dr. Geizsler, I'm so sorry! *Please* don't report me!"

Anonymous said: I love that Newt says he loves dressing slutty for Hermann. That's such a Newt thing to say. Also, please consider Newt dressing as a slutty schoolgirl for Hermann. "Professor Gottlieb, PLEASE! I'll do anything to pass this class! I'm sorry for being so disruptive! I just wanted to get your attention. It's not my fault, Professor! I get all these naughty thoughts about you and then I can't concentrate!"

Anonymous said: Another anons have mentioned Newt having a professor kink, but you know what else Newt has? An ego. So sometimes, NEWT is the professor. So sometimes Hermann will come to Newt. & Hermann's dressed like a proper British schoolboy. & Hermann's like "Professor Geiszler, *PLEASE* dont fail me! I'll earn extra credit ~however~ I can!" & Hermann bats his long beautiful eyelashes. & Newt's like "Well, come here and prove your eagerness to learn, Mr. Gottlieb." And Hermann is a good, obedient schoolboy.

Anonymous said: omg. that ask that referenced phantom of the opera. newt donning a mask and cape and entering the bedroom like "my dearest hermann...i have come to steal you away" "have you now?" "yes! you shall be mine and mine alone forever!" "oh, how positively dreadful" "you will come with me now! come with me and let me ravish you as you deserve to be ravished!" and hermann is so fondly amused. "oh dear, i suppose i have no choice. i'll do whatever you ask of me, mr. phantom, sir."

SECTION C: Newt’s Butt

Anonymous said: Newton using his adorable bubble butt to his advantage. Bending over in from of Hermann. Asking Hermann to get something from his (Newt's) back pocket (because "sorry, my hands are full"). Newt's favorite way to tease Hermann is to ask "Can you check my butt for panty lines? My jeans are really tight, and I wore those panties you really like, and I just wanna make sure they aren't visible. *bends over to display his butt* Make sure you're REAL thorough when you check."

Anonymous said: NEWTON: Imma get "Property of Hermann" tattooed on my ass. // HERMANN: Please don't. // NEWTON: I'm not gonna, lol. I just wanted to see your reaction. But seriously - this? *smacks his own ass* Is totally your property, babe.

vitamine-dude said: Chalk anon is good.... Also... Hermann slapping Newt's ass with the palm of his hand covered in chalk... 👀 😂

Anonymous said: Hermann has a love-hate relationship with Newt's skinny jeans. He loves them because his Newty got a booty, but also? How is poor Hermann supposed to get any work done with such a lovely distraction? "Aw, poor Herms! Is my ass keeping you from your work? Maybe my butt need to be taught a lesson. You could always use your big sexy hands." "You could at least TRY to be subtle!"

SECTION D: HERMANN’S butt

Anonymous said: Hermann can never wear his skinny jeans out in public because Hermann in skinny jeans renders Newt incapable of keeping his grabby little hands off Hermann's cute little butt.

Anonymous said: Hermann can't get over how gorgeous and adorable Newt looks in his sexy-slutty little Oktoberfest dirndl. "Newton, your skirts just BARELY cover your rear!" "How's that a problem? Yesterday you said my ass was, and I quote, 'plump and perfectly round'." "You are still being indecent!" "Aww, what are you gonna do? Put me over your knee? By the way, is that something I can do to you? Will your leg be okay if I put you over my knee? Because I'd *LOVE* to spank your adorable little flat butt."

SECTION E: you guys are ALSO really horny for hermann’s nips (no judgement whatsoever...very *chefs kiss*

Anonymous said: The moment Newt discovers how sensitive Hermann's nipples are, Newt is merciless. Newt will just spend his sweet time nosing at and nuzzling and licking and kissing and nibbling at Hermann's nipples. Meanwhile, poor Hermann is a panting, writhing mess, just begging Newt to please touch him where he needs to be touched. "Oh, Hermann! All this just from me playing with your cute little nipples? You're adorable. Oh, such a sweet, needy boy, aren't you?"

Anonymous said: Hermann wear baggy shirts and sweaters because he has sensitive nipples. If his shirts are too tight, then he can't concentrate on anything besides the feel of the fabric against his nipples. Once he and Newt get together, and Newt figures this out, Newt is always trying to get Hermann to wear tight shirts, at least in their quarters/apartment/house. Also, Newt likes to tease Hermann by tying him to the bed and running a feather over Hermann's nipples.

Anonymous said: Once newmann get together, it doesn't take long for Newt to figure out how sensitive Hermann's nipples are, a fact that Newt very happily exploits. Newt's such a little shit about it too. He'll run his tongue of Hermann's nipples until Hermann is writhing uncontrollably and begging Newt to please PLEASE fuck him already. "I dunno, babe, you seem awfully worked up. Maybe I should wait until you've calmed down a little." "Newton, PLEASE!" (1/2) (2/2) Also Newt loves to tease Hermann about this. "Alright, whatever you say, baby. Such a sensitive boy, aren't you? Seriously, all I have to do is LOOK at your cute little nipples and you start begging me to please fuck your cute little ass." "Newton!" "No need to blush, we both know it's true. Now come on, legs over my shoulders, that's it, that's a good boy."

SECTION F: more dominant/possessive (like in a sexy way) newt

Anonymous said: Hermann really really loves bottoming/submitting from time to time. Just letting Newt pick him up and move him so Newt can have his way with Hermann. Especially when it comes to roleplaying scenes where Newt says things like "You're too pretty to be such a naughty slut." and "You're being so good, taking me so well, you're such a good boy." and "You're always wound so tight, let's see if we can't fuck some of that stress out of you, handsome."

Anonymous said: One of Hermann's biggest kinks? Having Newt fuck him good and hard, while Newt says things like " 'Dr. Gottlieb', ha! Anyone with any observational skills at all knows you by your more appropriate title: Dr. Geiszler's precious, pretty little sweetheart. You're a brilliant scientist and mathematician, obviously, but you're also obviously MINE. Do you hear me, Hermann? You're my pretty boy. Just mine. I don't share my beautiful, brilliant boy with anyone. You're all mine."

Anonymous said: Hermann doesn't actually WANT to be caught, but he loves the idea, the sexy little fantasy, of someone seeing him being fucked hard by Newt, because he loves being Newt's and having everyone know that he's Newt's. Newt teases him about it sometimes. "Aw, you big softie! You just want everyone to know that you're mine, that's so sweet. Maybe I'll start writing 'Property of Newt' on the back of all your pants. Then everyone will know that the world's prettiest mathematician is mine and mine alone"

Anonymous said: Whenever they have to get a hotel room or make a reservation at a restaurant, Hermann always puts the reservation under the name "Hermann Geiszler", because he knows it's the easiest way to get Newt to fuck him good and hard. Newt loves it. "You may still be Hermann Gottlieb legally, but in reality? You're absolutely Hermann Geiszler. You're my man, my husband, my pretty boy. Only mine, right?" "Yes, of course, only yours." "Good boy, Hermann. Now let's get you undressed."

SECTION G: miscellaneous

Anonymous said: Precursor Hermann, but Newt does believe for a second that Hermann would leave him without so much as a goodbye. Newt's all "Look, whatever forces are possessing the love of my life! Hermann is a gentleman! He might be a cranky, irritable, bitchy old dude, but he would NEVER leave me without saying so! Hermann just doesn't operate like that! So! Y'all wanna get out of my man, or do I need to fuck you outta him? I mean, he's getting fucked by me anyway; I just wanna know the order of events here"

Anonymous said: omg if hermann ever said the word "dude", newt would just immediately drop to his knees and ask hermann if he could pretty please unzip his pants and let newt suck his dick pretty pretty please

Anonymous said: (re: this comic) That comic reminded me of one of my fave newmann headcanons: after their first time having sex together, Hermann is utterly MORTIFIED because he was so damn loud. Honestly, Hermann always thought screaming during sex was an exaggeration. Then he had sex with Newt. And he learned that it is NOT an exaggeration. "Newton, oh my goodness, I'm so sorry!" "Sorry?! Baby, are you sorry? That was so hot. Imma work to make you scream again and again and again and again forever."

Anonymous said: Hermann USED to wear boxers, but Newt insists on Hermann wearing tighty-whiteys because "I don't want your underwear covering any more of your sexy legs than is necessary. I gotta have those hot supermodel legs exposed, baby. They demand to be groped."

Anonymous said: (re: this fic i think....) Newt-on-painkillers asks a nurse "Hey, where's the hottie with the sexy sharp cheekbones?" & the nurse is like "He stepped out to get you a snack. I didn't understand everything he said, but he definitely mentioned some kind of German pastry." "Holy shit, he's the perfect man." (When Hermann finally gets to take Newt home, Newt's in the passenger seat all "As soon as we're in our bedroom, I'm gonna ride your dick so good, baby. No amount of painkillers could make me forget how to fuck you good."

Anonymous said: Ur fic abt newmann making a porn reminded me of 1 of my fav newmann headcanons: Newt loves to tease Hermann abt what a successful porn star he (H) would be. "Oh, just think of how much money I could make frm recording u: sexy physicist fingers himself! Adorable scientist begs to be fucked! Pretty lil mathematician begs for permission to come! Willowy scientist gets his nipples played with&wakes up the entire country with his slutty lil screams! Scientist presents his ass for a thorough fucking!"

Anonymous said: (no additonal commentary required) Newt: I'm young, dumb, and full of cum!

Anonymous said: Hermann managing to fuck the Precursors out of Newton, who tries to have Hermann awarded some sort of medal of valor.

Anonymous said: One time Newmann tried switching it up, having Newt ignore Hermann while Hermann pleasured Newt. It didn't work because Newt has no self control and he wouldn't stop petting Hermann's hair and moaning and hollering about how good and pretty and perfect Hermann is.

Anonymous said: (re i think this fic? i write so much hospital bedside fic...) The first time they have sex after Newt's finally been released from medical, Hermann is just all kinds of sweet and gentle with him. "Is this too much, darling?" and "Calm yourself, liebling. Let me do the work." and "Slow down, sweet boy. You're going to hurt yourself." Eventually Newt's like "I'm not gonna break, babe! Lemme just..." "Shh, next time you can be as rough as you want with me." "Promise?" "I promise." "Next time I'm gonna fuck you so hard, baby."

Anonymous said: Newton making it his new job to make sure that Hermann has ALL of his needs seen to is my new jam. Like, he's still objectively obnoxious but now with a side order of willingness to fuck his math husband raw whenever he asks for it.

Anonymous said: Newt riding Hermann's dick and, between sighs & moans & gasps, saying all the sappy lovey-dovey things he wants with Hermann. "We're gonna have a cute little cottage somewhere secluded with lots of cats! And I'll chop plenty of firewood to keep you warm! I'll be your personal lumberjack! All I'll provide you with all the beautiful dresses and warm clothes you could ever need! And we'll have a huge library! And you'll want for nothing!" And Hermann's just like "Yes, that sounds perfect, darling."

Anonymous said: Newt bending Hermann over a desk/their bed. Gently petting Hermann's hair and softly kissing Hermann's shoulderblades. All while he (Newt) pounds into Hermann's sexy flat ass. "Hermann baby you feel so good I love you so much I love all your little gasps and moans and how you can't keep your hips still and you're always so beautiful but this is the beauty that only I get to see when you're a wild moaning mess oh god you're gonna get the nicest bath after this get you all cleaned up for bedtime."

Anonymous said: (re: this ask) Oh man imagine how absolutely slutty Newton would get on Snapchat if he thought that Hermann wasn't picking up what he was laying down (meanwhile Hermann is going through multiple boxes of tissues because of the constant blood nose, he's constantly in a state of arousal, everything reminds him of Newton, just hearing the Snapchat notification is enough to turn him on).

Anonymous said: Newt usually loves parties, but once he and Hermann get together, he always passes on new year's parties. Like, why go to a new year's party when he could instead ring in the new year by fucking Hermann senseless? And of course spoiling him in all kinds of soft sweet ways as well.

Anonymous said: NEWT: "Hermann, babe, I know you're not as into Halloween as I am, but do I still get my Halloween ;)treat;) from you?" HERMANN: "...You might, if I had any idea what you're referring to." NEWT: "Ugh, how can you be so smart, and still so clueless? I want to blow you!" HERMANN: "Oh! Well, far be it from me to object..." NEWT: "But I wanna dress you up first! Because it's in the Halloween spirit, and also I found an extra lacy corset that I really REALLY wanna see you in!" Also, Newt's biggest weakness in regards to Hermann in corsets, is Hermann in corsets with big bows on the lower back. Newt loves anything that draws attention to Hermann's precious, perfect flat butt.

Anonymous said: A while ago you said something about Newt having both a praise kink AND a shame kink, and I think Hermann would be perfect at fulfilling Newt's needs there. "Newton, you're such a sweet and pretty boy. Why do you insist on acting like such a little tart?" and "There we are, darling. Can you come for me like the sweet, filthy boy you are?" and "You're such a darling little slut."

You + Me + Ink Kids = Family

Here is some art for this!

(about 2200 words)

Joey and Henry share a moment. Or at least they try to.

“Hey, sweetheart,” the croon came out of nowhere, Henry’s arms wrapping around Joey’s shoulders, a nip on his pointed ears. A stifled gasp. Henry smirked, rubbing his hands up and down on his husband’s chest. “You look so nice now, my husband….”

Husband.

What a pleasant word. Thank god they lived near a coast and Bertrum owned a boat. Finding loopholes in laws was Joey’s expertise, and within a year, they were legally married through Captain’s Laws, and no American judge could argue with the sanctity (though they did attempt to revoke Bertrum’s clergy hood, but to no avail as he had received his ordinance in Britain).

“Husband.” Joey murmured, setting down his pen, leaning his head back onto Henry’s shoulder. “I love you, but what’s with the sudden affection?”

“Nothin’,” Henry rubbed his face on his neck gently. “Just thinking about how time is changed… first you were my friend, then my business partner, then my best friend, then my infatuation, then my head and heart ache, and then my crush… remember what came next?”

“It wasn’t boyfriend, that’s for sure,” Joey laughed quietly, Henry chuckling and kissing his hairline. “Oh, it was not that.”

“Oh, you surely remember what I called you, don’t you?” Henry rose an eyebrow and Joey flushed, nodding with a swallow. “Ah, yes. You were my pretty little affair. My lover. Sneaking out in the middle of the night, or better yet, I’d ensnare you here in the studio, trap you in a hidden away room and revel in your moans and whines, my pretty little affair, so sweetly sinful. Your stuttering protests of how I was a married man killed by touches and kisses. Your worries over my daughter silenced by skin on skin. You were my secret pretty little affair. Now, you’re my beautiful tall husband.”

“I love you,” was all Joey managed to breathe. Henry chuckled again, pulling Joey out of his seat. “W-what are you doing?”

“Planning on getting you in bed,” Henry replied easily. Joey let out a hysterical laugh. Henry pushed him against the wall, pulling his legs out from under him to put them on the same height. “What’s so funny, darling?”

“We are at work, and it’s one in the afternoon,” Joey answered in a hushed whisper, blush flowing through his face. Henry smirked and swooped to bite the side of Joey’s neck, licking it and sucking on the skin. Joey gasped, his back arching. “H-Henry! Oh my… hn, ah! N-not so fast! You’re gonna make me-e…. s-slow down, Hen, please!”

“Babe, I want you in bed, I’ve been patient, I ain’t stoppin’,” Henry told him, his voice reverberating against his throat, eliciting a moan. Joey quietly asked him to slow again, and Henry acquiesced, removing his mouth from his neck, trailing a hand down his arm to grip his wrist, holding him to the wall with his hips. With his free hand, he traced Joey’s lips. “So pretty… so delicious… and all mine.”

“Oh, Henry, I always have been,” Joey panted, trying to catch his breath from Henry’s attack on his neck, “I’ve always been yours.”

“Your lips say such sweet lies,” Henry purred, Joey flushing rapidly. “I love it when you tell the truth like this….”

“I love you, Henry,” he smiled lightly, leaning to kiss him softly, pulling back after a moment. “I could never lie to you… you know me too well.”

“I do, don’t I?” he destroyed Joey with those flashing eyes. He felt himself go lax, there was no denying Henry any longer. Henry lifted his head with a finger, and he positively melted. “Yes?”

“Yes, please,” Joey whispered, the blush already gone, lost in love. Henry leaned to him, raising an eyebrow, waiting patiently for Joey to finish his sentence. Now the blush inched back. “Please kiss me.”

The shorter did not wait an instant, their mouths connecting softly. Joey sighed, eyes closing, in pure love. Henry bit his lips, gently but possessively, a silent claim. His hards caught Joey’s free wrist, gripping them together in one hand, using the other to roam the chicano’s skin. He Joey felt Henry grin against his lips as he dipped his thumb into his pants, tracing small hearts along his waist, going further into cloth with every iteration. That son of a… ohhhh, but he felt so good…. Henry chuckled at the groan that escaped Joey, pressing his hips harder on Joey’s, the taller man’s legs wrapped around him and his back flush against the wall. Joey whined, trying to entangle his hands in golden locks or grip a muscled arm, but both his wrists were pinned above his head rendering that impossible. In replacement, he turned his face away from Henry.

“Doll, Joey, let me take care of you,” Henry softly insisted, nuzzling his neck. Joey breathed, leaning his head back. “C’mon….”

“Just give me a second,” Joey replied quietly, shivering. Henry kissed his shoulder, making his way up to his cheek. “Ngh… I did tell you to slow down….”

“Sorry, sweetheart,” Henry murmured. “I keep forgetting not to overstimulate you… heh, even right after you reminded me.”

“It’s alright, darling,” Joey tilted his head to press kisses onto his hairline. “Okay. You can continue now, but please, can we go home? Someone could walk in on u-AH! H-ha! Ohh, f-fuck…. Ngh, ah… Henry…!”

Henry smirked, sucking on Joey’s collar, tightening his hold on the taller’s wrists and raising him higher against the wall, rolling his hips onto Joey’s.

“See babe?” he purred into his ear, slowly lowering him to ease his arms. Joey kissed him, breath coming in small huffs. “No one’s walking in o-”

“Whatchya two up ta?” Bendy’s bouncy young tones inquired. Joey, having forgotten about their inky triplets, started against Henry, his fight or flight instincts going into flight overdrive as he lunged forward, knocking over himself and Henry. Henry caught him before he landed face first on the floor. Bendy tilted his head a full ninety degrees to inspect them. “What’re ya doin’, dads?”

Joey found talking an impossibility from fluster, so he looked beseechingly and nervously toward Henry. The man gaped back at him, before realizing the severity of Joey’s stark muteness, and he slapped together the first thing that could make logical sense.

“We were… uh…” he stumbled over the words, his arm involuntarily tightening around Joey’s body. “Wrestling! Yeah! We, uh, ha, were wrestling. For adults.”

“Weird kinda wrestling, if ya ask me,” Bendy commented, frowning. He shrugged and grinned. “But who am I to judge?”

“You are not to judge, since you are our son,” Henry managed to continue, his voice wavering, his face ablaze, Joey’s mimicking the flush even worse than he. “Now, Bendy, you go off and find your siblings. You’re gonna stay with your Grauntie and Grunkle tonight.”

“Really!?” Bendy’s toon cut maroon eyes lit up. In both a literal and figurative sense. “Imma go tell Linda, Bo and Alice!”

“Tell Bertrum and Lacie, too!” Henry called after him. He noticed Joey’s shook look. “What?”

“Wrestling?” his husband inquired, cocking an eyebrow. “Of all things… Henry, I love you, but wrestling? Have you seen my body?”

“Oh, yeah,” Henry muttered, slipping his hands into Joey’s shirt. Joey gasped. “Every beautiful inch of it. I might need to revisit the gallery and refresh my memory, though.”

Joey squeaked, unable to reply as Henry’s hand found the curve of his thigh to dwell on, gently stroking it.

“Now that our little dear demon is gone,” Henry mused, “can I get back to trying to get you to heaven in bed?”

“Tu diablo, you don’t need to,” Joey struggled to find the right words, “to make that sound so… so sexual!”

“Joey. Babe. Darlin’. That’s exactly what it is,” Henry, amused, remarked. Joey flushed, looking away and forcing himself not to smile, failing awfully. “So, Johan, my handsome tall husband, can I make you feel good?”

“You always do, no matter what,” Joey answered. Henry did not seem impressed, though he was rather bemused Joey’s expression, loving and doting. Henry rose an eyebrow and the leg between Joey’s. Joey blushed, hurriedly getting up and pulling Henry with him, dragging him to the exit of the office. “Let’s at least get to a bed for that to happen, Henry.”

“Mmm, I’m impatient though,” he reflected, pushing Joey against the door as he tried to open it. He pressed kisses onto his back, wrapping his arms around him. Joey muttered something in spanish, twisting in his hold to lean and take him into his own arms, lifting him with a silenced grunt, Henry yelping in surprise as he found his feet off the ground and taken to quite a distance from the ground. He quickly opened the door, still holding Henry with one arm as he briskly walked down the hall. Henry took this opportunity to kiss his face while not obscuring his partner in everything’s vision, pressing his lips to his temple and cheek and jawline, carefully avoiding that sweet spot under his ear as to not initiate a system shut down. Someone almost bumped into them, clearly meaning to ask Joey something. Henry grinned at the music director, not pausing in his administrations to Joey’s cheek and ear. “Oh, hey, Sammy.”

“Hello, Mr. Stein, Mr. Drew,” he greeted, amused, referring to both with each name. “Could I ask some things about the music for the upcoming episode?”

“Certainly,” Joey, his voice straining and much higher than usual, replied. Henry smirked, keeping eye contact with Sammy as he kissed and bit Joey’s neck. Sammy grinned, unable to keep a straight face at Joey’s absolute fluster. After a few seconds of silence, Joey stamped his foot, flushed and embarrassed.  “Hurry up, Samuel!”

“Alright, alright,” Sammy chuckled. “Did you want the episode to be more bass heavy or treble heavy?”

“Um… treble,” Joey nodded, regretting the action instantly, Henry’s mouth grazing up and down his neck, sending sparks through his whole body. Sammy nearly laughed aloud at Joey’s suddenly blank expression, knowing that inside he was a dumpster fire. “Was th-there anything else?”

“I think I’ll figure it out from here, thanks,” he hummed. He winked at them. “Have fun.”

Joey did not reply, he simply rushed from the studio as fast as he could, focusing getting home as quickly as possible, now glad for the time of day, as no one was out.

He slammed the door with his foot, pressing Henry to the wall, panting, slowly sinking down the soft paint colored wall. Henry lowered his legs to support them, Joey becoming the one held. He kissed him, just nice and sweet.

He swayed as he carried Joey to their room, still kissing him, deepening it as he set him on their bed. He pulled away, admiring at his beautiful almost purple blush. Joey’s eyes slowly opened, and Henry kissed away the tears that threatened to leak from those gorgeous puce orbs.

“Don’t cry, love,” Henry murmured.

“Sorry, honey,” Joey whispered, wiping at his eyes. “I’m crying because I’m so happy… people can die from happiness, right? I feel so far away….”

“Well, I’m right here, and you’re here with me.”

“I know… I love you.”

“I love you, too.”

Bendy tramped down the stairs, singing quietly to himself. When the amusement park came into his sight, he picked up speed, yelling, “I’m here!”

Bertrum turned barely in time to catch his ‘great nephew’ in his arms, stumbling back several feet from the shockwave.

“Hey Grunkle Bertrum!” he happily greeted, hugging him tightly. “Dad said me an’ Ali and Bo an’ Linda are stayin’ with you and Grauntie Lacie tonight!”

“Did he now?” Bertrum asked, adjusting his hold on his (heavily spoiled) nephew. “Lacie, my dear, we have four little guests tonight.”

“Ugh, Stein owes us,” Lacie grumbled, but smiled. Linda, beside hir, bounced Psyche on her lap gently, the baby gurgling contentedly, Alice making faces at them. “It’s nice to have the help, y’know, but damn… ah, oh well.”

Both she and Bertrum looked tired. Psyche, growing into their powers, abused them constantly, and their poor parents had to put up with all sorts of demigod insanity. (Lacie nearly lost it the first time she found them on the ceiling.)

Boris smiled, resting his head on Lacie’s lap. She patted his head, and he signed, ‘hungry.’

“You’re always hungry, little wolf of mine,” Bertrum remarked, but still motioned to him, and they went, he still holding Bendy, to the pub room to get food for him.

Alice glanced up at her aunt and Linda, a devious smirk spreading on her pink lips.

“I bet Dad and Pap are gonna fuck,” the angel said, raising an eyebrow and grinning. Lacie kept a straight face and sighed; this was normal. Linda smiled a bit, and it bloomed into a full ear to ear grin. “I bet you ten dollars.”

“Deal, but how would we know?” Linda pointed out, Psyche nomming on Alice’s halo, enjoying the tingle. Alice pondered. “It’s not like they’ll tell us.”

“If Papa has a hard time walking tomorrow,” Alice concluded, grinning. Lacie laughed and shook hir head slightly. “What?”

“Y’know Johan always has a hard time walkin’,” Lacie chuckled. “So I think that ain’t gonna work for ya.”

Alice was silent for a minute.

She looked at Lacie with solemn eyes.

“You ask them, then.”

Update on the webtoon thingy.

Change of plans my friends!

Don't worry, Imma still work on the webtoon.

The current code name for it is Under Cove (Just to let you know that if I refer to this project by that name, it's just a placement holder, however, I might stick with it since it sort of fits what the story is) and it's no longer a slice-of-life fantasy story.

It's a sci-fi horror.

And another update is-

This webcomic will most likely not be coming out anytime soon, the series will most likely take at least a year of preparation and a year of studying the webcomic itself, in total it will be maybe 2 years if more until the first 3 chapters are gonna be released.

I am planning on finishing at least season 0 (It's a prolog season, leading up to the story's main events if you will).

I will not be posting many leaks for the story, at least not until I have published a good chunk.

And yes, it is a horror, I wasn't joking about that.

Here are a couple character drawings

Just to reference the two main characters.

The one with the witch hat (Neo) will be getting a re-design, however, those are the bases of his appearance.

The other one (Luca) is a 13-year-old boy, and I am telling you I have at least 16 drafts for his design in my sketchbook, but this is what I set down on, the design may change over the next while, but this is the current design I set down on (No he is not a cat hybrid, he is a human, that's just a hoodie, he will change outfits over the course of the story, however, this is his main one).

Reson behind why this project will take a while? 1. I will try and figure out the art style in which the webcomic will be drawn.

2. I am making the entire town in blender as a reference for perspective in future panels (By this I mean that the town is gonna be a 3D model and it will have a good number of buildings furnished (Just to help with some scenes)).

3. The storyboarding and planning of the story will take a while.

4. I at least hope to be finished with season 0 and a quarter of season 1 before I publish the first chapter.

5. I need to learn how to draw horrifying creatures (It wouldn't be a horror if it didn't have them).

6. The webcomic is still unplanned, I have the concept and characters' personalities set, but the story is pretty much still bare bones.

7. I need to study other comics to figure out the layout of the comic as well as figure out the wording and bubble placement.

8. The actual rendering will take a lot of time, blender 3D modeling will take a lot, but the actual redrawing and rendering will take a good chunk too.

9. The webcomic is gonna be a long project, and I need to set up a schedule to fit within my everyday requirements (Since I am in my 3rd year of high school and am planning to go to college, it will take quite some time to figure that one out)

That's all, if you have any questions surrounding project Under Cove, please leave them in the comments and I will try to reply to them!

The Best SpongeBob Memes As Chosen By SpongeBob Himself

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Sometimes it feels like SpongeBob SquarePants memes are the logical conclusion to Western popular culture. Memeable bites of the classic Nick Toon allow for older (some would call geriatric) millennials to share their feelings from their half-remembered childhoods in all new contexts.

When Earth is gone and the aliens have arrived one day, perhaps the only evidence that we were ever here will be images of SpongeBob emoting on a recovered hard drive. And you know what? I’m quite alright with that! SpongeBob memes are great. Thankfully, the voice behind the sponge agrees.

Tom Kenny has been voicing the cheerful titular SpongeBob since the show first premiered in 1999. He’s followed the undersea fry cook through more than a dozen seasons, several movies, and the Paramount+ prequel Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years (which returns for more episodes on July 22). He sees the value in memes repurposing old art.

“I used to have a friend who would dumpster dive, find cool stuff, and then turn it into art. He would find some crazy old typewriter and then take out all the guts and turn it into like a metal insect or something like that. That’s kind of what I look at these memes as,” Kenny says. “(Fans) took it and turned it into another really cool, funny, applicable thing in different contexts. So I love the memes.”

Kenny is not shy about discussing his series memetic potential. But we thought it was high time to contextualize things a bit and have him rank his favorite SpongeBob memes (from a list provided by us). To that end, the actor spoke with Den of Geek (on his birthday, no less) to present his favorite SpongeBob memes. Kenny addressed five images templates that feature SpongeBob and four “bonus” ones from the show that don’t. Check out the results below.

Tom Kenny’s Favorite SpongeBob Memes

5. I Don’t Need It

“I guess this meme is for those times when you’re trying to be all cool, and acting like you don’t need help. Maybe you’re above this thing. ‘No thanks,’ and then ‘yes, please give it to me.’ You know? ‘I was lying! I underestimated my self-reliance.’ That happens to me all the time. I like that one.”

4. Okay, Get In

“To me, it’s kind of a spin on those birthday cards where it’s like, ‘oh, you’re officially old now,’ right?  Like, when you see a child actor from when you were a kid and you go, ‘holy crap, that guy is old.’ Then you go, ‘wait, if he’s old that would make me old.’ So, yeah. Come on, get in. We always got room for one more. You know, there’s a pine box waiting for you. 

3. Tired SpongeBob

“So this one is Tired SpongeBob? You said that you call it ‘Phew SpongeBob’ and yes, that SpongeBob is often all about the phew, the proud. To me this one is when you get away from something horrible, or a person that’s wasting your time, or you escape. It’s about dodging a bullet, right? It’s like the knife whizzes past your head and gets stuck in the wall, which is a metaphor for life. And you’re just like, ‘phew!’ Yeah, you’re kind of exhausted by then. It’s a release. SpongeBob is also naked in this, but I’m not sure what that means.”

2. Ight, Imma Head Out

“Ight Imma Head Out is one of my favorites. It’s just kind of a thing where you are, ‘Okay how are you doing man? Better hit the road, time to make a mile. Yeah, Imma head out.’ That one is just funny. He’s like, ‘Hi, I got stuff to do. I’m going to rouse myself out of my La-Z-Boy and get the heck outta here.’ Yeah, I love that one. I actually use that one in real life with my wife and kids.”

1. Mocking SpongeBob

“As far as I know, this is the one that started it all, or at least the one that really started snowballing. So, I have to say I love Mocking SpongeBob. Again, as I’ve said before, the beauty of these memes is that often it’s just a pose or a drawing taken from the show, with another meaning ascribed to it by the internet wacks out there. I’m not sure if the original intent of that pose in the episode was, but somebody thought, “it looks like he’s [mocking]”. I love that repurposing of old stuff. In the spirit of [SpongeBob creator] Steve Hillenburg, I’m a big recycler. I love when drawings are taken out of context and made into a whole new thing, with a whole new meaning, that’s almost like digital folk art or something to me.”

Bonus SpongeBob Memes Sans SpongeBob

4. Savage Patrick

“To me, this meme is more like devilish Patrick, more demonic like, ‘Ooh, I’ve got you now’ Patrick, of ‘I see which way this is going and how I can use it to my advantage.’ Yeah, that one comes in handy too when you’re feeling it. It’s mischievous I should say more than devilish.

3. Krusty Krab v. Chum Bucket

“Ah, that is a new one to me, ‘Krusty Krab vs. Chum Bucket.’ But it’s kind of like when you compare two things, one of them is awesome, the other one is lame, so it’s not so much an apple and an orange as an apple and a turd. One of my favorite old shows is The Fugitive with David Janssen in the ‘60s. I always like seeing that they’re remaking The Fugitive and then I try to watch it, it’s just like hmm…”

2. Confused Mr. Krabs

“Yeah, that’s a classic. To me, that meme fits that feeling that you get when life is just spinning out of your control and your brain is melting. Everything’s getting away from you. I was just in that situation, I remember, 4th of July, where every flight we tried to get out was canceled. You know what I mean? It’s kind of like one of those where you’re just caught in this vortex of hellishness and the ground kind of shifts under your feet for a minute, or longer. I love that one.”

1. How Many Times Do We Have to Teach You This Lesson, Old Man?

“As with Star Wars action figures, there is no SpongeBob character too obscure to have his own meme. That’s just, when you have to repeat something ad nauseam, and to just somebody who’s just not getting it, oh my God! This is getting so tiresome right now. I feel that way a lot with friends and family. That’s either because I’m a bad communicator or I’m the smartest person in the world. I’m not sure which one of those is true.”

New episodes of Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years come to Paramount+ on Thursday, July 22.
