After episode 4, I am now fully convinced that Bison is not as naive as he initially comes off as. He does have some naivety thanks to being so sheltered and protected and loved by Fadel. But nowhere near as naive as falling head over heels in love with Kant the moment Kant shows interest in having a long term relationship with him.
The whole incident with Babe being bullied at school showed just how smart and meticulous and sensible Bison really is. Bison doesn't show that side of him in missions with Fadel because he doesn't have to. And also because he doesn't want to. Bison hates being an assassin. He doesn't want to do these missions. He doesn't want to kill people. So he can't be bothered to be serious during his missions with Fadel. Because he knows that Fadel will take care of it. He knows Fadel has all of it under control. But when Fadel is not there to take care of things, Bison is more than capable of taking charge.
I grossly underestimated what lengths Bison can go to protect the fantasy he has created of his relationship with Kant. Bison is very much living in a fantasy. And he is also very much aware that he is living in a fantasy. So he is willing to do anything to maintain this fantasy and somehow keep holding on it. Nobody is allowed to ruin this fantasy for Bison; not Kant's creepy ex, not Fadel, not Kant and certainly not Bison himself. If Fadel can notice how shady Kant is, Bison can definitely notice it too, and even more so than Fadel because he is actually interacting with Kant. Do you want me to believe that Bison can notice Babe's wounds hidden under his shirt and not Kant's fake smile when he lies? I would rather believe that Bison does notice all of it and just chooses to ignore it. Because to him, nothing is more important than keeping his fantasy alive.
Bison is not in love with Kant yet. He is still in love with the idea of falling in love. However, he is starting to catch real feelings. But with how focused Bison is on keeping his fantasy alive, I don't think he even realizes just how invested he is becoming in Kant. Especially after he witnessed how much Kant cares for Babe, the younger brother in Bison can't help but be touched by Kant. And this is only going to make the fallout after the truth comes out that much worse.
I also find it interesting how Bison deals with the obstacles that threaten his fantasy.
First obstacle, his own suspicions about Kant. This is easy to deal with. He just chooses to overlook all shady things about Kant, gaslights himself and deludes himself to believe that the fantasy he is living in is real.
Second obstacle, Fadel. This is also pretty easy to overcome because all he has to do is whine and throw a tantrum for Fadel to give in. This is why I think him asking Kant to look for someone to keep Fadel occupied is a test to see just how interested Kant is in himself as well as genuinely wanting someone for Fadel. He is perfectly capable of making Fadel give in to him and what he wants.
The third obstacle is Kant and also his ex that popped out to show his presence out of nowhere. Bison's way of dealing with them is threatening to off them. I mean he makes it very clear that while he is willing to overlook all the shady things for the time being, but if they come between him and his fantasy he will get rid of them. And I find that so fascinating.
Episode 4 has me so excited for Bison's future character development because now I am almost sure that he will go batshit crazy when his fantasy falls apart. I am so so so excited for psycho Bison. There is something about a sweet and cute and adorable little munchkin terrifying the living daylights out of everyone around him that I love so much. I really hope Bison is as completely unhinged and impulsive and crazy as I imagine him to be. But even if he isn't that won't stop me from enjoying his character for what it is.

I love how you completely changed everyone’s wardrobe for the Beach Episode, save for gorgug’s hoodie (do they take it in the water?) do you wanna talk about the outfit choices at all?
I mean there's not a lot to talk about there I think? I'm a big fashion-focused character design artist, I'll say that, but a lot of that I can't really translate into words sadly... there are just certain character-specific silhouettes that once u've picked out u can hang onto to give them new clothes and it'll usually be good that's kinda how I do it. I fully see gorgug going Anywhere in that hoodie tho I think by this point babygirl's like I have a theory it's indestructible and I intend to test it

I am so curious! do you have any headcanons for gabe/v2?
oh! hm. i guess one of the things that i have in mind is that v2 tries its best to be as sweet as possible. and, since it IS a war-killing-machine, it does not quite understand what does sweetness means. it leans for kisses, bumping in gabriels helmet's gently on good days, and hitting him with all its might breaking its visor on bad day. maybe it tries to hold hands but does not know the force that it is putting into it leading to break the poor gabriel's hand. it tries not to be the killing machine like v1 is, really does. gabriel is not very fond of all this affection and is very suspicious of v2 but sometimes its warm motherplate and droning sounds just gets him, yknow. besides, it seems like v2 is the only thing in the whole damn world who understands his hatred towards v1
ON THE OTHER HAND the idea of v2 being like "i know NOTHING about this angel bitch and i want to keep it that way" speaks to me very loud. you know the idea of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" and then having some warm feelings towards gabriel for unknown reasons... UHGAHHHH THRES SO MUCH POTENTIAL!!!!!!!!!
my point is, we were fucking robbed. i rest my case

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

Apologies, I've mentioned it in a post already, but my art requests are currently closed! Every request I'm posting right now was taken from a period of time where they were open a few weeks back, so I could have something to work on while I was disconnected from the internet. I'm not taking new requests at the moment, I'm so sorry!

idk I had a very interesting therap today but I just
like it's all very well to recognise that I gotta have a fucking open-ended breakdown and jump face first into the Sadness Bog sometimes instead of sitting on all my feelings
but like
I still have to go to work, you know? it's like. ok yeah have a breakdown which like until you jump into it you don't know if it's going to last an hour or a year. yeah go ahead that's all grand. you do have to get up in the morning and go to work though. you're not allowed to not do that. or to not pay the rent or not shower or not eat.
like all my friends and loved ones are constantly like 'you know you're allowed to be sad right' and it's like. AM I??? because I STILL HAVE TO PAY RENT.
#red said#the thing my therapist keeps pointing out is like. i got on this adulthood thing WAY too early#metaphorically i have Had To Go To Work In The Morning since i was like. 4. bc i am congenitally incapable of#Not Thinking About Consequences. and it's so important to be Good and Tough and Have It Together#but like. maybe if id done more crying and melting down when i DIDN'T Have To Go To Work In The Morning bc i was a Literal Infant#i might be a more balanced adult now that i actually DO. Have To Go To Work In The Morning.#what do people like. do. when they have to have feelings but also meet adult responsibilities? impossible. gotta choose.#i think it doesn't help that i already really struggle to work a full time job. like I'm already late basically every day bc i a night guy#so it's like. there's no give in this. maybe if i was back into a 3-4 day week? but idk if i can afford that#but also the work is only partly work. it's also like. having human relationships. eating. washing. being a person.#but idk. like. until i have some genuinely open-ended time i think I'm gonna always find it impossible to actually let go#i said in therapy it's like. like sadness specifically is like a thick muddy bog. and i can dip a foot in it#but bc i know i need to be able to keep moving#i can only stick a foot in and deal with a bit of it if I'm holding onto something. so in practise i can only cry#right before it becomes inappropriate to cry. so like. end of a therapy session. heading to a train station after seeing someone.#that kind of thing. it's a safety thing.#it would be much more effectively Dealing With to go dive into the bog and plough through it#but I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG THAT'LL TAKE and i have to like. come out all muddy and deal with that#and there's always somewhere i gotta be soon. i can't just jump into the mud. not cause I'll get hurt i just Don't Have Time#anyway. feelings. how do they work. embarrassed about having them. embarrassed about suppressing them. generally just embarrassed.
