Man, this is a LONG post,,, but I saw pieces of the newest chapter for bsd and.... ugghhhgg

Never has yaoi been so doomed in my life.. amyways, this what my thought process was like before going on a tangent of redrawing frames from both the anime and a little manga:

[doubletroubletag]

i got almost all the next month's updates sketched! i'm not doing the last one simply because i am feeling the burn out of composing these pages. (each have at least 6 pages, a good amount have the max 12!)

that said, these are all just sketched. i want to do it in this order: backgrounds -> lineart -> transcript. i got other projects i need to work on (winning hat and NightFell) so I can't really guarantee when Tag will start to update again.

[cappydoodle]

more doodles of this bc it's in my brain now

Does anyone else hc that Nightmare can like, absorb his tentacles back into his body sometimes? Like the way Stitch does with his extra arms?

Neither yoga nor getting personal are Bonnie's strong suits.

Bonnie: I don't know about this, Lu.

Lu: Babe, you're literally frowning in your sleep. You'll have a heart attack if you don't release all that stress.

Bonnie: If anything, this is stressing my clumsy ass out even more! Nope, nope, nope, nope.

Lu: You could at least try taking your shoes off.

Bonnie: That isn't helping! My body's built for ridin' horses, Lu, not twistin' itself into a goddamn human pretzel!

Lu: [sighs heavily] Fine. Have it your way. You know, we might be able to sell some of this old junk. It's just taking up space. Wait a minute. This isn't junk. Whose instruments are these?

Bonnie: [uneasily] They were my parents'. From back when they tried to make it as a country duo.

Lu: Bonnie, your parents had a band? How did I not know that? You barely tell me anything about them. We should dust this baby off. Start a band of our own.

Bonnie: Can you even play?

Lu: Sorta.

Bonnie: Good luck bookin' that stage, hon.

Having a mini meltdown over fucking french administrative online sites that aren't working. I hate and avoid making calls so much (usually staring at the ringing phone in horror) and the site not working leaves me no other options. 100% if I send an e-mail it'll take ages before they answer.

Man I'm just trying to get help to be able to idk exist like a proper adult but it feels like everything goes wrong on purpose :)))))

I wasted time thinking that for once I wasn't wasting time, great

[tapeworrmart]

[biblically-accurate-dca]

super disorganized sketch page because i do what i want

[qoldenskies]

ive kind of avoided similar subjects mostly out of fear of my work veering way too out of control in contrast to canon (because its still a new interest and i havent gotten comfortable enough to do smthn like this yet) but MAN do i kind of want to shake frida in a jar. like i want to come up with an interpretation for her i think ...... because i love women and she deserves it

So this is a sequel to this post mainly because there was some crucial details in the finale that I missed, but this is specifically going to be focusing on Parrot rather than Evbo, although Evbo is still going to be part of this whole theory. Lets start.

[Transcript Start] Evbo: -My iron sword, so their swords will never break. Thats why I have to get out of here, so that I can prove to people that there is a way out! Obviously, to do that, I need to make it to level 4. But its a bit tough to do that, since theres no way to rank up apparently. Parrot: ...Wait, what do you mean theres no way to rank up? Evbo: Oh yeah! I probably should've mentioned that every time I try to rank up to a golden sword- Woah, getting up close and personal. But..yeah, theres no water at the bottom, I've died-

[End of transcript.]

This exchange to me, at first, read as rather inconspicuous. Other players have killed Evbo before, or straight up hit him. So it didn't particularly click with me that this was something to pay attention to, but it was a bit weird considering how Parrot is first characterized. His whole introduction with Evbo and Tabi, and him talking about the iron sword layer being peaceful, and trying to protect Evbo's immortal identity, being depressed and isolating himself in a mansion.. It seems odd that this would suddenly shift when the situation becomes "Theres no way out" and him almost getting violent here, like every other character in the series. But he shows restraint in his anger rather than lashing out. Good right? Well... Next time we "meet" Parrot the implications are less than ideal. We learn he is a bow, and that he attempted to tell Evbo this, but the message about Tabi's betrayal got through to him too late. Then something else happens. Evbo, post betrayal and probably wanting to let off some of the stress that has most definitely been bubbling under the surface, Kills the entire iron sword layer. Or atleast very heavily implied that he did, along with Parrot's help. In Evbo's words, he "Killed all the people that were against me." which could either mean like, two people or the entire layer, and I don't think Evbo was particularly keeping track of the "bad" iron swords that came into his cell depending on how populated that layer actually is. The way someone would typically twist this, is that Parrot is willing to do terrible things for his friend's safety and comfort. Which is fine, but hear me out. Considering that Parrot got very close to snapping at Evbo back in episode 4, and was pretty absent throughout the arc where Evbo trains until he gets to the diamond sword layer, and then out of nowhere, helps with a murder spree despite him being one of the more peaceful residents? One that doesn't appear to get into fights, nor is seen going into Evbo's cell for kills? Evbo lets something slip near the end right after describing the massacre that he and Parrot did together. Parrot says:

"I will do my best to make a difference in this world."

Now, this sounds good in theory. Great, even! But consider the stuff we learned from him up until this point, the tiny details that you could easily miss or disregard entirely. Now, what does that phrase imply? Especially with the surrounding context being Evbo and Parrot killing a layer together?

What difference does he intend to make in this world? We don't get more than what Evbo tells us in the narration, but he does mention that he isn't willing to see Parrot just yet, and needs to piece his feelings towards him. What went down between these two that went unseen that left Evbo not wanting to talk to him let alone see him? Fishy, fishy, fishy.

okay I think the positive feedback on my past writing has, counterintuitively, made me terrified of writing something bad and prevented me from posting again lmao.

I'm gonna make a fic on ao3 where I just post stuff from my vault (scrapped stuff, drafts/wips, drabbles, ficlets, etc.) to exposure therapy myself into writing again; I will either realize that a) my shitty writing isn't actually that shitty or b) people online thinking my writing is bad does not, in fact, result in the world imploding <3

[moldy-flowers]

Guess who it is?

If you had to pick one character from Naruto to completly rewrite and/or redesign: who would it be? Can be a major/minor character.

By this I mean: change their lore, their design, their character relations, their outcome in Boruto, their village affliation, their death, siblings, etc.

Ok this question has been plaguing me for days cause I just couldn't decide,,,

But over all probably Kaguya. There's so much potential for a great backstory there *cough* toxic yuri *cough* but it was wasted bc Kishimoto randomly decided he wanted to write about aliens but couldn't be bothered to make a new story. Like whaaat bsfr rn

Shes pretty but :/ I could make her prettier. Kishi shoulda called me up fr

Honourable mentions that I kept thinking of but I'm OK enough with them that I wouldn't rewrite their whole story:

Konohamaru: I feel like he does virtually nothing for the story, also he's ugly asf. So I would change like,,, most of him.

Naruto: his hair makes me so fucking angry the MAIN CHARACTER should not be so difficult to draw I'm gonna beat someone up

Sakura: I just really want to give her that axe. Also what if we swapped that superstrength for genjutsu. What then. Genjutsu is SO underutilised it makes me insane. It could do so much in the medical field too. Also I just like drawing uneven hair so that's like. All I would change design wise. She's actually got a very solid design. W for Kishi and his team.

Mikoto: I just want her to have a more main role in Sasukes story :( I hc that Sasuke was a direct descendent of Madara so that could have been a really interesting thing for Mikoto. Like what if she could beat up Fugaku. What then. Also she's so pretty for no reason. Like Kishimoto really just made the prettiest gal ever and made her irrelevant. Also I'd give her a better outfit, I'd spoil her with the most gorgeous gowns in the Land of fire.

Neji: what if he and Sasuke held hands. What if they had an arc together where they bonded over their destiny's. Bonded over having the need to prove one's existence. What if they kissed. Kishimoto would never because he's too scared of the potential of them.

Zetsu: i have genuinely no problem with him being a physical being of Kaguyas will. But like. Theres no way out of every person ever no one's had as much will as she. Like. Bsffr rn there should be like. At least a few more come on man :(

Indra: Istg I will bite you Indra not being made head of the clan was such bullshit. And also!!! One person to lead an entire clan is a little!!! Flawed!!! Asura and Indra should have ruled together like 😒

random guy who threw the mask at Naruto: Kill him. Castrate him. Burn him on the stake.
