THIS PANEL HURTS ME TO THIS DAY.

So upset the anime left it out, too. Just the first third (quarter?) of the panel explains a lot about William's guilt and how much the Final Problem was visibly weighing on him.

Hitting you with my new design for Qi Rong. Here's the design things and changes I made:

I loved how stupidly the colors clashed on his Donghua fit but I wanted it to look a little different.

I also always pictured him with shorter scrappy hair but I really liked the braid in the Donghua so now he has both. I mean look how terrible his bangs are. He is the embodiment of perfection.

I gave him a bunch of skulls and bone themes stuff because it's cool and fits his vibe. I have no idea what the skull around his neck came from though. I'm gonna say it's the skull of an infant.

His teeth are really effed up too. I want him to just look really gross and disturbing and the teeth just gave that image to me. The toothgap is so fat you could fit a pencil, maybe even two pencils in it. And when his mouth is closed his bottom flat teeth are so short that in addition to the tooth gap, theres just this gaping hole which he probably sticks his tongue out of to be a chaotic little shit.

The scar on his neck was something I came up with based on my own headcannons. We don't really know for sure how he died as a mortal, just that it was probably in a massacre of the Xianle royalty. So if he was executed, I'd like to imagine he was beheaded as thats typically how exucutions would go. I also wanted the scar to mirror Xie Lian's cursed shackle because these two parralel to each other so hard it's not even funny.

The thumbless glove stayed because thats funny as shit. My boy really is just telling everyone to fuck off.

I kind of liked doing this and so I might go after Hua Cheng or He Xuan next.... it depends on how people react to feral goblin Qi Rong and his fucked up teeth.

Happy 30th Birthday!

Awww, thank you!! <3 <3 <3

I know I've been awfully quiet lately. Nothing bad's been going on, so don't worry! But I've just been very artistically unmotivated and buzzy brained lately, so I haven't felt like doing anything much for the online world. And there's not really anything worth "updating" on, either. (Although I've gotten some pretty cool Pokemon in that time~)

Hopefully now with birthday thoughts moving behind me, I can start to feel some more art happies trickle in! ^^

Aaron’s mask was untouched. Initially it was suspected he had not participated, but he claims it was intentional. When asked to elaborate he stated that “white is what happens when you mix all the colors together and sometimes that’s how I feel…like I’m everyone else’s…whatever…all mixed together.” When pointed out that his statement implied that he was not his own person Aaron just shrugged and grew quiet.

yes hello hi im back w/ more art . . . this time fanart of a cm fanfic series ‘crazy is as crazy does’ on ao3. i rlly enjoyed it im gonna ramble on why under the cut ^_^

lemme tell u i love the characterisation: hotch (&emily) in this fic r so precious to me. mentally unstable, homocidal, & secretly insecure teens that are just teens <3 like. okay hotch fr murdered someone yet he grieves it with that youthful intensity & ‘but i want it back’-ism bc he loved her and its so heartbreaking. AGH HIS DIARY ENTRY IS TOO!!! as is every reference to What Is Wrong with him :(( <//3

and!! i’ve never read a foyet/anyone else thing before but hotchniss/foyet in this fic was so interesting. like, his characterisation was transformative enough that it makes so much sense!! like while also being subtle?? like nobody is making out w tongue hotch is just comfortable around them both, horny, and pretty sure emily/foyet r into each other. emily/foyet r just enabling each other while they also make hotch let loose, while hotch introduces some sweetness into emily’s life . . . it just Works

I'll be honest I'm really enjoying the Acolyte discussions my last 2 posts have started. To clarify I don't mean the sweaty youtube self styled critic kind of discourse (that's just melodramatic ragebait) I mean the Pro-Jedi, Anti jedi and Jedi Critical discourse. It's like a petri dish study of a micro-scale thankfully fictitious holy war that I find fascinating. Every time I think I've settled on a stance I read a response that's fascinating and challenges my conceptions of this franchise. Honestly keep it up folks, this is so refreshing and sure as hell beats relying on the Muskrat's site for interesting SW discussion. Common SW Tumblr W I guess

Take it from someone who can read up to 3-4 books (on top of the fics) a week and usually average at 2 books every week, when people tell you to read stuff you enjoy if you want to read more, well it's true

For the past month i've been reading only one book, the third in a trilogy that i had liked pretty ok so far. Not my usual jam, but the first two books had managed to make me care enough about how the plot would end that i wanted to read it all myself instead of just looking it up. But then the third book... Was good, like it is a very good trilogy, just, like i said, not my jam and didn't manage to engage me as much as the previous two.

Had it been the first book of the trilogy, i would have dropped it. But after about 1800 pages already read in the whole trilogy (last book alone was ~800 pages), well, you know I was invested and it was a matter of pride

But that also had as a result that for the past month i have barely read anything but that book and some days i would just not read anything (in terms of book, fanfic is a different beast) because i was just not really enjoying myself

Could i have been reading other books at the same time? For sure. At any given time i have about 5-6 books on my 'is technically currently reading' pile

But i knew if i was gonna read those books, then i would never finish the 800 pages book and i didn't want to not finish it.

Anyway all this to say that yes- finding books you enjoy is actually one of the best way to make sure you'll read more. It took me about a month to 800 pages. When the rest of tje year, i averaged about 1000/1200 pages a week. And its not because i didn't want to read. I wanted to. I even had a bunch of mangas on my desk i was planning to read, but i wouldnt even touch those because i was just turn off.

And i finally finished the book tonight and the sheer relief to know that tomorrow i can finally read a book i will thoroughly enjoy. Unbelievable.

And like, i did that to myself. Im not mad i powered through finishing the book. Mostly because i'm a big reader and i always find more books i want to read and like a month delay won't really change much on that front.

But yeah. My good peeps. The thing you choose to read do matter. And also if you're not vibing with a book, for any reason, you're never obligated to finish it. I will finish reading maybe 1 out of 3 books i pick up. And you don't have to justify why you put down a book. I've picked up books that seemed to be right up my alley open it on the first page, read one (1) word and then went 'nah' and returned it to the public library without losing sleep about it. And no that is not an exaggeration, sometime, a word is all you need.

And also, it doesn't matter what you actually like to read. 70% of what i read is queer romance because that's what i enjoy. The rest is mostly horror or sci-fi. But if all you enjoy is YA? Go for it. Or even children's books, who cares? I reread children's series from my childhood for nostalgia at least once a year and i'm always having a blast

So yeah this is just me rejoicing that i am finally done with that fucking book and also just encouraging you my good peeps to drop a book you're not enjoying if you're reading for fun
