#i think i'll go with the second option

🇺🇸: I was trying to make Marinette look closer to some older concept arts, more specifically the ones from the PV and (mainly) from Quantic Kids (Pictures below).
I also wanted to distinguish her civilian hair from her hair in hero form, that's why I'm thinking of keeping her classic pigtails in her hero form (because I like the way it mimics little wings), while going for one of the 2 options for her civilian form. Which option do you think fits her most? I'm more inclined to go with the second option because, although it is way closer to the classic pigtails, I think first option is way too close to Socqueline's hairstyle (which I intend to keep the same)... I'm also unsure about the shirt color (in this clothes in specific, that she'll probably be wearing at home) and the eye color (but I'll probably go with dark grey since it's Sabine's eye color too). In the future I might also change ladybug's bangs to make them a bit more different. But what do you guys think? Which is the best option for each thing, having those details in mind? (Specially about the hair)
🇧🇷: Tava tentando fazer a Marinette mais parecia com algumas concept arts antigas dela, mais especificamente as do PV e (principalmente) de Quantic Kids (fotos acima). Além disso, eu queria tentar diferenciar o cabelo dela na forma civil um pouco mais da forma de herói, por isso tô pensando em manter as Maria chiquinhas com o formato clássico nela como ladybug (porque gosto da forma que elas simulam asinhas), e na forma civil optar por uma dessas acima. Qual das opções vocês acham que combina mais? Eu tô pendendo mais pra segunda opção porque, por mais que seja mais parecido com o cabelo da ladybug, eu acho que a primeira opção acaba fica parecendo muito com o penteado da Socqueline (que eu pretendo manter o mesmo)... Também tô em dúvida em relação à cor da blusa (desse traje em específico, que é o traje que provavelmente ela vai usar em casa) e dos olhos (apesar de que provavelmente vou escolher o cinza, afinal é a cor dos olhos da Sabine também). No futuro eu provavelmente vou mudar a franja da ladybug pra diferenciar um pouco mais também. Mas o que vocês acham? Qual é a melhor opção de cada um, considerando esses detalhes? (Especialmente sobre o cabelo)

I might try opening those artmonth style comms around December or late November, likely will be attempted via google forms so I can get a feel for people's requests and pick out a selection rather than first-come-first-serve. I've been very, very stressed lately so I want to be a bit more selective for test run prompts just for ease of completion.
#For reference it would be likely asking for prompt-color preferences-references and then I'll pick up a batch of them and reach out#I'll probably start with around 3 or 5 and will likely have a “would you like to go second” option for if i can do more after#Its going to be more limited while I work things out and also I've just been dealing with a very stressful pet situation for the past year#that I think might be why im so out of it#t.extpost

Getting closer, getting really close now I swear (Patreon)
#Doodles#Just Desserts#Villainsona#True Villainy AU#Just ignore how many times I've said that up to this point lol - I'm serious this time!#I always feel so bad designing TVAU outfits because Charm is always so miserable as a model haha#Could this be a contributing factor as to why it's taken so long?? No I enjoy drawing her like that lol#Made some design notes about the important elements of what I want for her True Villain look - more than just ''Her but Kaiein influence''#I'd still really like a nod to dragon scales of some kind but honestly her classic design is more that#Always going on about her spider theming how to make it dragony! It's the one thing I'm still hung up on lol#As for the rest I think it's Really getting close :) I got to actually turn her little ''shawl'' - I always knew it was Kaiein-related -#Into something that properly mimics his shape! It's all controlled by her tho it's not a part of his body - just magic-infused matter#Made to look like him so there's still that creep factor but it's more her body than his - she can control its shape :D#And I got to keep the jewels! Yesss - made it a motif! Now it's also on her hips and knees to break up her visual space yes very good#It's drips :) Y'know - like ink :) Finally figured that one out lol good job setting up my own symbolism me#And then some elegant drapey bits to match her ''shawl'' and continue to break up her space!! Yes! Good!!#I still haven't decided on a colour palette I think black and white is too obvious and too Kaiein but hmmm - she has a lot of colours#Lots of options to pick from but which is the Correct one - her hair would stay pink so maybe some of her pinks or purples#I'll play with some digital swatches later :)#I'm also so glad I could implement the hood design from one of the scrapped outfits ah <3 I love her in a hood she's so cute#I'm rather pleased with the way the spider web design breaks up her form as well - it's more subdued than the full bottom/shoes stripes but#It's also not very clear here lol the long ones that all the way down to her feet are the third from the center ignore that second one#The second lines out from the center host her wings! Very important!#Kinda reminds me of my holosona in a way actually :0 They /are/ both Evil-aligned hmmmm#All the more reason to colour palette! Differentiate the colours in my head#Really do feel like I'm approaching it now fdjsklafd getting close now!!

#blabbering#rambling/whining/complaining/venting ahead:#I think the horrors have finally caught up to me and the depresso is starting to take hold#i don't usually experience this until winter but I think the sudden drop of activity and people going on hiatus and such -#has triggered this early for me#basically I can't be left alone with my thoughts for too long or i start spiraling REALLY badly.#i don't really handle change very well haha...#i have the notorious curse of second guessing anything and everything and putting it on repeat in my head and then amplifying it#which sucks bc I don't have any more escapisms that work now bc this was already my escapism and I have no human connections irl#(I'm not kidding either. I've failed time and time again to make friends irl and was always the proactive one about it. But alas... ugh)#my only source for connections is online bc i struggle to make friends (especially at my age and how my energy keeps depleting and depletin#might lowkey be sharkweek but usually I just get more agitated and not this (this is very specific to the winter horrors™ for me)#i guess I may as well check out the spears while they're around still (tho in between me making dinner). I'm just feeling super bummed out#and not excited like I was the other day about it (ofc I blame the depresso™).#I don't even know what to do for my beta characters. Head empty. Head gone. sigh.#also it sucks bc next week is gonna kick my ass at work (canada day/july 4th/july in general/5 DAYS and long shifts in there too)#i'm going to be so tired and so alone and with nothing to look forward to. Idk what to do bc none of my usual distractions are effective no#No escape. No seretonin. No company. Nothin'. I notice I when i start getting bad like this when I fall back hard into pokemon#(because it was my childhood escapism and I was a neglected only child who was left alone a lot; hence the connection lol)#i'll probably just have to suffer through it and be an absolute wreck of a person i think. I don't really have any other options#watch me get sick again bc canada sucks to work bc everyone has it off and they ALL GO TO THE STORE I WORK AT AND IT SUCKS.#gonna try to draw more too but the depresso is eating my brain worms (the healthy brain worms)

i can't believe they made me speak french in the oral exam
#IT'S DONE#i don't know fellas i have no idea what impression of me they got#i stumbled a lot and contradicted myself so :(#also they told me how it was gonna go and they were like 'first we'll ask you stuff about the written exam. then you'll tell us about#your phd project and we'll talk about it. and then there's the second language exam :)'#and in my brain all alarms went off#i remember in the application i think i selected spanish as second language because the other options were like. french and german#and they were like. so french in your case right! cause spanish is not your second language :)#and i was sure!#(the last time i spoke french i was 17 in high school)#they made me read a text in french and then translate it#they saw me struggle so much in english that half-way through the translation they went 'you can translate it in spanish we'll understand'#and it went so much smoother from there on lol#anwyays. i have no idea what'll happen. i'll know next monday

Shit bro first hormone appointment in two days hold my hand
#am excited and scared#idk how honest i should be really#and idk what the guy's like#and I'm excited from a personal standpoint (holy shit yes hormones finally)#but scared/worried from a yknow. societal standpoint.#doing this in 2023 on terf island probably isn't the best move#and idk it's kinda daunting when i could write a laundry list of cons#and the pros list basically just amounts to 'makes me happy c:'#but like. i guess that's transition in a nutshell right?#we don't do this shit bc it's easy#if i could be content with the easy option (i.e. present as cis)#i would do that#bc i fucking hate expending any effort for anything abjsjdjfjdjjsd#aaaaaaa. two days to go.#might all be moot ig. they might reject me out of hand#and if they don't there's a good chance they'll reject me at the second appointment bc of my health#but yeah excited and scared is how I'd put it#but i simply don't think I'll ever know for certain that this is what i need until i try it#because i can second guess/talk myself out of ANYTHING. no joke.#and I'm soooo fucking. tired of being that bitch who's always waiting for shit to happen.#or waiting for the perfect time or whatever#waiting and thinking and waiting and thinking it's all i dooooooo#i need to get out of my fucking head#and i need to do fucking Something that deters perfect strangers from clocking me as female within seconds of knowing me#despite how fucking bewildering that feels to me as like. a soft masc presenting individual. who really doesn't get where they got that from#anyway its not with the gic but it is on the nhs#it's an appt with a local endocrinologist#so if anyone else has been prescribed hormones that way and has any advice/insight on how this appointment might play out dm me lmao#mr. bees speaks

i am at the looking-at-dolls-as-self-soothing part of the night. i definitely wanna beef up my bratz collection since unboxing my alwayz bratz yasmin was just like... oh... oh man... and... and i didn't think it'd be like that for me man i didn't think i had as much nostalgia for bratz as i actually do not just buy owning some but by touching them and playing w their clothes and their hair.
and one of my issues of course is that i'm a redhead and as a redhead my Default Lookalike Doll is meygan (not that having a doll that looks like you is the most important part of bratz, but it is so much of the fun right? the fact that there's a character out there for just about everyone?). and i like meygan as a character well enough, that's not the issue. but of the meygan dolls that have been reproduced, there's none of them that are like, hardcore needs for me except for sweetheart meygan. and i did not buy sweetheart meygan in time. i was not really collecting at that point. that was like 2022. i had a few... na na na surprise dolls at that time. which is funny bc i have four of those that i got all either on clearance or w giftcards and i do really like them even though a lot of doll collectors thought they were kinda dumb, and they were. i just liked the gimmick of the fabric bodies and there were just enough dolls i thought were really cute that i kinda caved at one point. i also knew it was a brand i wouldn't go overboard with. anyway. we were talking about meygan...
sorry meygan back to you girl. i know original 2000s bratz that have not yet been reproduced at crazy expensive on the secondhand market and it's genuinely out of control. but sweet heart meygan, both the repro and the original, are selling for triple digits on mercari, ebay, what have you. that's just ridiculous. frankly. i'm not buying her at that. i don't even like her enough to hunt for her regularly, if that's how it's gonna be. there are plenty of more readily-available bratz dolls that are either regular retail price or clearancing online andin stores. did you guys know alwayz bratz jade is going for 15 bucks on amazon right now? that's crazy. the other always bratz dolls aren't going for that low if they're even marked down yet. that release wasn't even that long ago. anyway i'm thinking of getting jade from that line bc i know some ppl thought that alwayz jade was a let-down, but i thought she was cute. yasmin was my favorite from that line and that's why i got her but jade was my second fave there easily.
i also wanna get the kumi they reproduced sometime and maybe girls nite out cloe since i see she's still available. it's funny there aren't that many core girls i've wanted from the repros but if i go for any of the cloes, new or old, it's gotta be girls nite out. cloe isn't even usually my favorite character no offense blondes she's just kinda. she's just kinda cloe to me. idk i love her but i'm not gagged over her most of the time. these are still bratz standardz we're talking about here so obviously i love her.
there's nothing going on in the world right now other than my bratz dolls. and if someone we won't mention wins the election, i'm definitely going doll crazy. i'm gonna be buying dolls after this anyway, but i'm gonna justify spending an unusual, nearly-irresponsible amount of money. you know. bc i'm an adult and i can.
hey also and of all the lines they could've reproduced why is their most recent slumber party? why? why? when the poll posted by mga had tokyo a go go WINNING? bc tokyo a go go is the correct option? i mean the slumber party line is cute and i like the base dolls and the accessories especially the stuffed animals are cute. but. everyone knows the bratz audience these days is adult collectors. which adult collectors are losing their minds over dolls in pajamas and bathrobes? again they're CUTE. but why. also why did they reproduce bratz babyz when those things were nightmare fuel
#tales from diana#yeah and i have the jimmy paul pride two-pack w roxxi and nevra arriving tomorrow :)#i'm still probably gonna buy all these dolls i'm talking about at some point but i'm just gonna space them out#now is a pretty good time to be a budding bratz collector bc there have been AFFORDABLE OPTIONS once again#but they are not all that way#and i'm so happy for my own sake that i had no emotional investment w the mean girls dolls bc that shit was ridiculous#fuck mga for that one for real#yeah the bratz i have now are the alwayz yasmin and the campfire felicia repro#i should've unboxed felicia first bc i honestly like her better and her hair (being braided) would've been way less of a mess#i have to wash yasmin's hair and im worried about it bc i've never washed doll hair before#but i'm gonna be so honest w you. the state that shit was in? was borderline unacceptable. lol#it's so hard and gelled that i cannot just brush it or anything#the back ie what you could not see in the box is especially nasty... like come on#the alwayz bratz as much as i do like them overall are not the same quality as 2000s bratz. i have to say#not just bc they don't come w a second outfit but the fabric quality and construction just isn't what it used to be#they're still good dolls don't get me wrong. but i feel like they're less pressured bc of how cheap barbies are nowadays#they don't have to put in the same elbow grease to be 'better'#anyway i'm glad i'm talking about bratz dolls which are the only thing that matter in the world to me right now#la la la la la i'm plugging my ears. la la la la la nothing is going on#i have to get a sasha at some point too but idk which one i want? and i want one that's on shelves now not a secondhand. not dealing w that#i think i'll hold onto the hope of tokyo a go go being reproduced bc that's one of my favorite sashas. & she's the best in that line imo#her hair and makeup are just gorgeous and her outfit is adorable#that's like peak sasha and peak bratz to me#but i also like the new pretty n punk sasha. idk. i will wait for suuuuure. don't rush diana#i don't think i wanna have more than one doll of any character before i have a more extensive bratz collection#so who i choose to get for the core 4 is vital... i'm happy w my current yasmin though. the other 3 are kinda up in the air

I desperately want to start playing trumpet again I literally can't stop thinking about it
#i own a very very very shitty trumpet but its in storage in the back house (we have 2 trailers combined by a scary room) and is going to#take tremendous effort to get to. i eitber have to break into the back door that has no stair case#or move all of the furniture in the living room to unblock the door into the scary room#and I'll also have to use a flashlight the entire time because the electricity is turned off back there#and also idk if the trumpet is even still good its been in storage for 10 years ya know#did i mention its super shitty and i paid $100 for it like 12 years ago#my other option is to save up my game money for probably 6 months and buy a second hand on off Facebook marketplace#because i am unemployed and while my sister does pay our bills and i get food stamps#i don't get money for fun stuff ever. i just don't think my sister thinks about it which makes me sad#at least once a month she gets a silly little package of stuff she buys for herself to make her happy#i don't. and i don't want her to feel bad about it because she deserves nice things but like i get sad because i can't but thinga#the last time i bought something unimportant was cannabis seeds that she wanted me to get#because she prefers smoking to taking edibles#before that my mom gave me $50 for my birthday and i still could only bring myself to spend $40 at the craft store#i used the other $10 for cat food that we didn't even actually need at the time#because i feel guilty asking for anything let alone stuff that isn't a necessity

I think the scene I'm going to add to Monday's chapter - not the one I kept thinking about over my trip because I cannot remember what it was, but one I've been thinking about for far, far longer - is the Kyoko Kirigiri Is Ace And So Is Virgin Junko Enoshima But They Are Different Flavors conversation.
So that will be. fun.
#musings#bandit writes fic#dr1 end rewrite fic#i also want to go back and smooth out some earlier scenes after the second write#idk if i'll do a full third write but#i might?#idk if i'll have time before monday#but yeah#kyoko is not repulsed but is also stone cold#she does not want to do things to other people (although she supposes she /can/ MAYBE even though she's not really interested)#and she especially doesn't want anyone else to do things to her EVER#junko is much less averse to the idea#if her significant other wants to do the thing then she is cool with doing the thing#or having the thing done#or whatever#she just sees no personal necessity for the thing#and is roughly curious but uninterested#she is /picky/ though#like - she's fully open to yasuke whenever#and she gives kyoko the option#but mikan so clearly wants and junko consistently 'nope not yet maybe later'#and i think that's less averse to the idea#but a relational difference#none of them are casual but like#mikan especially would not be casual about it#and mikan's relationship with sex IN GENERAL is also VERY complicated#and junko is aware of that#so there's always a bigger question of why mikan wants that and if she really wants it or just -gestures-#and whether mikan herself is aware of that complexity or not#if junko asked mikan to have sex with her mikan would say yes whether or not she wanted it

I may have hit an all time low mental health wise but I'm being so chill about it
#just randomly tearing up/crying for like 30 seconds before i tell myself#no. it's not worth crying about it. you keep those tears inside your body!#my life might be falling apart right in front of me after i tried moderately hard to prevent that from happening#but i refuse to cry about it (more than i am in these random 30 seconds of intense existential despair washing over me)#i need a plan for the future.#step one. get degree. hopefully achieved by may#step 2. apply for internships and jobs#step 2.2. find job to earn money before getting an actual job#(i think my professor changed her mind and doesn't want to keep me as her assistant after all#i haven't heard anything back for ages and the contract was supposed to start again in may#so. let's see if i find something else)#step 3. leave this godforsaken town and university and never look back. don't think about what could have been#don't think about academic work ever again. just let go. it's not worth it#step 4. try to make life less miserable somehow lmao. (optional)#i want to tell my mother about this fucked up situation#just so i don't have to hide it anymore and pretend things are going as planned#but i can't#oh well#I'll probably end up without any courses this semester so I'll just rot away in this ugly apartment#i hate everything and everyone istg. but it's chill. i'm so. chill. about. this.#(yeah no i don't usually use that word that often. or. ever tbh. just another indicator just how chill things are.)#void screams

Me, trying to write a one shot: Who could I put in this with Shisui? It requires someone with eyes of a different color, so not Itachi...
My brain: Danzō
Me: What? Nah. It wouldn't make sense
My brain: You're literally the writer, you can make it make sense
Me: ... I am the writer. Mh... Maybe...
My brain: Do it do it do it do it do it
#mun's talk#I wasn't trying to make the story Danzō/Shisui but oh well#my brain decided for me#the second option is Ao lmao#I think I'll probably go with Danzō tho

btw we're dancing ever closer to a large milestone so. congrats. this is terrifying. where did you people come from. how are you still here.
#are the blogs still active#hey. hey. i'm poking you with a stick. do something.#not kpop#shut up vic#anyway i was kicking around an idea where i do like. '1k for 1k' where i post 1k of assorted drafts that died in my google drive#i'd leave it up to audience prompting but ngl i'd never get any lmfao so. it would be mostly my discretion with optional participation#it won't be for a while yet unless i can actually finish a piece for seventeen in the next six months (unlikely)#but i've been thinking about it#somehow people keep managing to find this blog which. how???#i haven't posted in a seventeen tag (purposefully) in almost a year#sorry if this is showing up in the tag btw i didn't mean to but i didn't think about it until right now and i can't edit tags rip#anyway idk where you people are coming from but you're welcome here#maybe one day i'll post writing again#i just got so averse to posting unfinished projects bc then they just. haunt me. especially if i end up needing to go back and edit#wit of the staircase and all that. i hit my stride in the second act and have to go back to fix the first#but you can't edit what's already been posted easily so. no wips leave my google drive.#plus they're mostly horridly self-serving and i'm the one being served so idk if anyone else could enjoy them#my current wip is a stress fic that developed a plot and i'm going to have to edit down the wish fulfillment if i ever post it#but that requires replacing multiple conversations and that's A Lot#anyway tag ramble over i just. think about things. wanted to check in lads.#if you're reading this i appreciate you also how the fuck did you find me#please tell me i'm genuinely so curious anon should be on no one will ever know please tell me please
