THEM!!! <3
I love In Stars and Time SO MUCH (I haven’t finished it yet though… but eventually I will!)
And man… I’ve been rotating this story in my head for only a week, but the grip it has on my psyche is just- AHFKSKAKSJFNKJLDLS
The main group of characters have such a fun dynamic and they feel so multidimensional, and, without getting into spoilers too much, I love how the game then completely breaks down these characters. It’s kind of the epitome of ‘under what circumstances would this character do something that initially would be out of character for them to do’ and it’s DEVESTATING!! But in a good and interesting way!
also?? Also?? Such a good game to find right as we’re getting into pride month :33
#in stars and time#them <3#watercolor#traditional art#isat siffrin#isat isabeau#isat odile#isat bonnie#isat mirabelle#I forgot loop :(#I was worried I wouldn’t finish this character line up as I was starting to loose steam after painting 3/5 of them#but I prevailed! And I think I’m pretty happy with how they look in my style :))#hopefully I’ll get around to making more fanart as I had some paintings planned but was struggling with translating art styles#Siffrin means everything to me they are just so <3✨#I’m at act 4 right now and slowly getting through let’s plays of the game#AGH I am also tempted to write a post that’s in depth on why I love this game right now but idk that takes time#I’m so tempted to draw them in color but I also want to keep my fanart monochrome to practice my values and lighting#as well as honor the reason for the game being in black and white

Hey idk if this is like. A personal question or something but are you okay? Have you been sleeping? It seems like you're crying a lot and I just wanted to make sure. Sorry if this is like. Parasocial or anything. Just worried.
Oh I’m good ;-; I mean ?? Apparently had a severe lack of vitamins and who knows what else which made me extra emotional but =w= I’ll see the doctor about that tomorrow 🙏 I’m doing better ;w; thank you for asking and no worries I just cry about everything all the time xD
#pix answers#sorry for worrying ya I’m working on it ❤️🩹 thank you for checking on me#it’s like ?? :0 I mean idk how to explain it just some difficulty with feelings that make no sense :Tc and taking vitamins took some of#the bad feelings away somehow which ?? I’m guessing this is all some sort of vitamin or blood deficiency thing#which I struggle with always xD but I’m getting it checked now#🦅✨

Okay! I thiiiiiink I can have a fic up by week’s end! If I don’t follow through this time y’all are permitted to excommunicate me.
#gotta stop being ✨useless and worthless✨ gotta start being ✨good and productive✨#it’s like… 90% done! I’m just struggling with the ending because it kinda. doesn’t have one#I never planned out an ending and I have no clue what kind of note to end it on. but if I end it at where I’ve got it#then there won’t be any impact. my writing’s already low-stakes low-impact but this one would be entirely uselessly self-indulgent#with nothing to show for it other than just… I dunno. I think what I’m saying is it’s not good?#but! I’ll figure it out! I will figure it out or die trying so help me God!

you are not gonna be able to guess what lucky circumstances I managed to accidentally get myself into this time lmao I secured myself a spot at a nude drawing class without even knowing it was a nude drawing class. it’s absolutely fantastic tho! the class is usually super popular and spots are hard to get so I was really lucky
#I’m just gonna pop by every few weeks spam reblog a bunch of posts and then yell about my personal life#without responding to any messages or anything else#and that’s gonna be my blog for a while ig#sorry!#but yeah it was rly funny when we entered the room and my friend and I set up our supplies and just chit chatted with them#and some other students#and I suddenly was like#wait so this is completely a nude drawing class?#and everyone was like#classic Gigi move#in my defence:#I assumed it was a general drawing class#cause the course description had mentioned it being a basic class#'from nude drawings based on models to portraits’#so I was aware it would be a part of it but not the entire class#so yeah#I’m facing my demons this semester#in a really mild way#cuz I actually do not enjoy drawing and painting that much#it’s why I rly struggled in all of my drawing classes#so when I picked classes for this semester I was like well#the description explicitly said everyone even absolute beginners were welcome#and it was about personal skill development rather than already having skills and being graded on them#which is why I thought hm I should do this and stick to it#if I stick to it I will definitely build my skills and if I don’t do that at uni I certainly wont do that at home#sorry for thw long ramblings#I am trying to be healthy and also responsible this semester and stick to actually going to classes#and not chickening out in them and staying home because I have weird compulsive thoughts that keep me from leaving the house ✨#and I also want to be diligent and hard working this semester#gigi babbles

I’m… really unhappy with regards to my relationship with art and how it’s deteriorated. I used to draw *so* much. I used to draw anything that came to mind. I used to have so much more energy for it. Now I’m lucky if I can even finish a piece.
I have my drawings sorted by year and my 2017 and 2018 folders have 300-350 things in them. I don’t even know how that’s possible. I (and the others) have been drawing more this year than we have in a long time, and maybe we’re getting somewhere, but I wrecked my relationship with art by thinking I had to monetize it for it to matter. I still think that. I’m not sure how not to. Luckily the others don’t seem to have that issue but I don’t know if I’ll ever get back to the way I was.
Please don’t do that to yourself. Make art because it’s fun. Make art because it makes you happy. Or it won’t anymore.

like i did still have fun. but it was in spite of a lot of things about the game rather than because of :( let’s focus on the positives. trip is adorable if a little too modern looking. this cutscene was very funny bc it was the first time i realized one of my bros had swapped eggman to lego at some point.
i love her <3
#eggman runs off the sceeen and then two seconds later we see the end of the girder…. where he go#that whole sequence is weird . anyway the fang fight was funny it was so hard my bro was Struggling <- carrying#the emerald bits are SO frustrating but rewarding#the special stages are just fun . esp with two players#the plot is capital C Confusing i think they could def have conveyed it better#esp the final pre egg fortress stage. what. how did that exist. it was cool as hell but i’m so confused#text✨#sonic superstars#sonic superstars spoilers#ALSO KNUCKLES <3 <3 i love having siblings we played through the whole game and i got to play knux the whole time even though i SUCK

Well I woke up this morning and found that I’m only one or two notes away from hitting Josh’s low note in A Normal Life because of a sore throat and cough, so either I’m getting sick or my allergies are super bad today because the pollen has been really bad recently and I slept with my window open last night.
#I swear to god if I’m getting sick right before a bunch of concerts I’m supposed to go to I’m not gonna be happy#also hi I just noticed I’ve been gone for like four days that’s so unlike me#I think that’s the longest I’ve been gone since starting this blog tbh#I’ve been ✨struggling✨#marianas trench#Rae’s ramblings

Girl- your art and your OC Jey Cleary is SO GORGEOUS I CAN'T- I NEED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HIM
I know your OTP is Joey and Astral, so, I must ask, how would he behave or act around Dark Mist if he met him?? 👀👀👀
Would he hate Mist? Would he tolerate him??
And what is Joey's relationship with Eliphas and his previous obsession in reaching purity by removing all the chaos??
(( AAAAAAAA! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! ;A;;;
THESE are also Super fantastic questions, thank you for the opportunity for me to gush about my boy and his antics with other characters 💙🩵✨ i’m so sorry this got SO long agshdj! There are doodles/art for your reading troubles down there too!))
- - ⟢〖 MIST 〗
So Jey’s whole deal is; Despite hailing from Astral World and being obligated to participate in their favor during the war ﹣ he’s actually the Son of Balance. His father, Protos, (the Heart of Astral World, as some called) was the guardian/overseer of the harmony between Chaos and Order. Before shit hit the fan in every conceivable way lmfao On top of that, Jey’s just.. a rogue and a rapscallion ahsgdhjs He never was keen on how black-&-white the war seemed, but relearning about the complete villainization of one half of a necessary energy was the final coffin nail. And that disagreeance is literally in his soul makeup! He was created in equal Chaotic Energy and Pure Energy. That balance is intermittently tied throughout him; He is meant to be the harbinger of Balance. Even Jey himself isn’t fully aware of how ingrained it is due to his own amnesia, but he does know obliterating all Chaos is not the answer, there’s something in his bones defying it. It’s a rather big plot point in his story that he starts to feel divided from the main crew because of this. Not Yuma﹣ Yuma is the only one backing Jey up at all ﹣but Astral. And it’s Astral’s rejection (spawned from the envoy's own rigid ideals and mission) that hurts Jey enough to push him out of the group for a brief period. ✨breakup arc woes✨
. . . And this is how and when Mist finds him. They make an alarming well fit duo. Their personalities mesh, and they do surprisingly? Okay? To avoid overt toxicity in their alliance? Mist doesn’t get preached at to change, or to “join a side of the war”, or be force locked in his card, so he tolerates having Jey around. And obviously Jey can’t be affected by Mist’s number influence, and he's naturally domineering enough to counteract when Mist gets too... himself lmao. Jey has a Robin Hood type of suave and charm whereas Mist acts increasingly seductive and invades people’s space because he wants to intimidate. Jey knows how to beat Mist at his own game, which both intrigues and aggravates the Number. Like two people who know one another via a friend-of-a-friend, and go on this epic journey and end up unconventionally thick as thieves like halfway through the movie. ASDFGH
Mist likes Jey’s assertiveness and darker side - the viability to resort to vicious methods and being such a rebel personality despite supposed loyalty to the world of “pure” ideals. Jey is pulled in by Mist’s unapologetic “take me or leave me” nature and his recognition of the hypocrisy regarding the war from both ends. And ofc the Number's unique brand of effortless beauty and free-bird, unaffiliated presence. Those two tend to, pretty universally, have a quick chemistry and natural connection. [ It’s also thanks to that natural connection that a certain lightbulb gets his first experiences dealing with an ‘unknown’ and green-eyed emotion. 😉 ] Also also, fun fact - if it could not already be told by these answers lol - These two are my second highest OTP, right after Goldenship (Jey x Astral /JeiAsu) ! I call them Pierceshipping. Since they have a lot of piercing qualities (particularly their affinity for bedroom-eyed stares and smirks) And because they each canonically stab someone through the chest.
I’m so sorry I ran out of space for the Eliphas portion of the question, I’ll have to return to that! ♡ ;v;
But TLDR; For a lot of the same reasons already listed here, Jey and him do not get along. Can’t always do much ‘bout it tho cause that’s their technical boss, gotta play civil or else Jey and boifren don’t get as many missions together :(
#(( THANK YOU So much for the ask!! This was so amazing and fun to answer <3 I treasure when I get stuff like this ;v; ))#| my oc ❦ |#| my art ♡ |#| saved ✧ |#| pierceshipping ✶٭༌ |#(( I’m not actually sure why this is;#but for some reason Golden just always ends up being the pair I *DRAW* more#whereas Pierce is the one I *WRITE* for more?#And I rarely RARely ever write stuff to post.. gshdjf#so it ends up with Pierce being like my ~secret~ ship ppl don’t know about lolol ))#(( Rest assured though it’s up there and sittin' easy with that close 2nd place title GSdhjk ))#(( Honestly it probs just comes down to me having a hard time honing Astral’s voice. I struggle with 'orderly/proper' characters ))#(( the day that I get a lock on writing him tho - watch out~ sfgdHfj#my ao3 gonna turn into a minefield of ✨⚜️🌟🏆🏅👑 lmaoshjd))

I have failed to account for exactly what “only 2-6% of people who take this (insert career) skills aptitude test pass it” meant…
…🥲 I take this test on the 28th and hmm it’s like all my worst subjects in school had a baby from hell and the test is that baby.
I’m was a sociology major I haven’t had to touch math and logic problems with a ten foot pole since 2018/19.
It’s not like I have a lot riding on this test, it’s not a dream career just an opportunity that presented itself but bahaha studying for this is a bitch
#captainderyn rambles#I despise test taking#and I despise math#this would be a great opportunity because ya know ✨money✨ which is good for my hobbies#and unfortunately as much as I love historically interpreting as my job the pay is…dismal#and any progression into the museum and archival side of things requires a masters which is MORE MONEY#so what I’m saying is manifest some math prowess for your local Deryn she’s struggling lol
