Compliment barrage! Your pose work is such a pleasure to see, your colors are so so good, you kill it with the expressions every time, and you’re really good at conveying the tone of each piece of your wonderful dogs! We’re all so lucky that you continue to share your art and your descriptions of them with us :)

Have a great day!

maybe i’m a little weird but i kinda see kittails as like. sonadow almost 😭😭 shadow lowkey hates but doesn’t hate sonic and kit hates but also didnt hate tails at a point

they’re also competition / rivalry to me

but not acknowledging kits massive beef with tails is insane it’s so funny

yeah i don’t see it 😭 sonic and shadow’s dynamic is very different from tails and kit’s

idk, maybe i’m the weird one but i just don’t see what tails and kit have going on as a rivalry, or at least not one like sonic and shadow. shadow doesn’t hate sonic. the blue bitch annoys him, yes, but there’s no hatred. their competitive rivalry is built off of mutual respect

on the other hand, kit hates tails and wants him out of the picture permanently. he says so himself. there is no respect there, it’s not just the friendly competition between them. kit wants to prove that he is superior to tails because that what he was created to be but tails keeps besting him. hes pissed!

idk i’m just insane about these two in a very non shipping way. sometimes it just feels like whenever people just make them friends while their big siblings are beating each other to death, they’re glossing over a huge chunk of kit’s character. kit is just as angry at tails as surge is at sonic

ik it’s all haha funny ipad kids tails and kit talking about modding their 3DS’ and whatnot but i do have the strong urge to rip my hair out when it’s the only depiction of them i ever see

hiiiiii jen! i love your unhinged personal posts. how is that sleep schedule going and what is your MOST and LEAST favorite class taken at college thus far? #gtftbs

Sure, I’ll humor you lmao.

Favorite class: Occult origins of science: alchemy, astrology and magic

Least favorite class: applied mathematics for the physical sciences (complex analysis)

[alitheakorogane]

i am glad you are doing venti justice

Of course, we will always do him justice, especially on SAGAU!

Mischaracterizations were already a pain in the ass at this point, but we'll try our best to mitigate and lessen the possibilities of some mischaracterization.

Because we can't help it sometimes though.

I WANT MAHITO SHIRTLESS ART 🗣️🗣️🗣️

HERE IT IS 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[oxavane]

I just want you to know your art is beautiful. That back shot of Lucifer has been my lock screen for the last 2 months and I wanted thank you for giving me a reason to respectfully gaze upon Lucifer's ass multiple times a day.

this makes me so genuinely happy :' D I'm still grappling with the idea that the only art I enjoy making anymore is tasteful (and not so tasteful 🤭) nudity, but knowing I can enable other people's Husbando Cravings (TM) is absolutely the best part of this haha

how offten do you get drun- err i mean "blitzed"

~🎙

That's kind of a weird question, Press. Not too often I guess, only at parties and on special occasions. I'm more of a social drinker myself. NO!

Get outta here or tell me who you really are, impostor!

[jm-chrome]

i love the way you draw arcane characters! is there any chance you take commissions?

Thank you!! 🤍 Sadly, I don't take commissions because my academics keep me pretty busy. I also feel like my drawing quality varies a lot, and I‘d hate to disappoint anyone if a drawing doesn't turn out as well as expected (╥﹏╥)

I appreciate you considering me for a commission tho!!

[hide-in-imagination]

Hiiii <3 I love your fanfics, okay "love" is a very weak word, I'm literally obsessed with your ff. That's why I want to ask, I've been thinking for a long time about the fact that I'd also like to write a fanfic about Ámbar and Simón, because I'm not okay and in my free time I think about different situations that could have happened between them behind the scenes. I tried to write something, but either it was very short and by that I mean extra short, or I ended up thinking that it was horrible and decided to delete it, so to get to the whole question, how did you start writing fanfics and how do you do it in general that your stories are always soooo perfect? Do you have any advice for people like me who want to start writing? Aaaaanndddd one more time, I really adore your work, please keep doing what you're doing, every time I get a notification that you've released some update both here and on ao3, I'm like a little girl who was allowed by her mom to buy candy, I mean, it always makes my day 1000% better 💞🩷❤️💜

Hi!!! Oh my god, you're so sweet, thank you 🥹🥹 ❤️❤️

I'm so honored that you would ask me for advice. I'll do my best, but, honestly? I'm my number one critic! I don't feel like I have the right to be advising anyone kdsjs. You say my stories are perfect but I don't believe that. I'm constantly frustrated by my lack of ability and depressed when I compare myself to my favorite fanfic authors.

But this leads us to our first lesson: You will always find someone who likes what you do. So don't worry too much about your first fics being too short or not being good enough. They're your first creations! You'll grow from there! And someone will like it. I mean, look at my first drabbles! They were- what? 300 words long? That's very short, but people liked them!

How did I start writing fanfics? I just did. I got an idea and I started writing it just because I thought it was fun. That idea was 'What If'. Hell, the whole concept was in the title, I'm not that creative 😂 And it wasn't supposed to be more than a fun oneshot! But then I thought "What could happen after that?" and I got more fun ideas, and people were asking for more anyway, so I wrote them.

Now. While I don't regret it by any means, because, as I said, you gotta start from somewhere and it was fun at the time... I do wish I had taken more time to think things through. If anyone's ever wondered why I used to write fast and now it takes me months, it's because now I worry about a 100 different things I did not think about when I first started. I usually just wrote the first thing that came to my head. And again, it was fun! People loved it! But, there is sooo much that I learned later. So many things that could've helped me make a better narration. So many things that I wouldn't have to go back to and change years later if I had taken the time to consider them the first time around.

So. For the sake of helping you and any other person who might want some advice, here are some things I would encourage anyone to do or don't do when writing a fanfic.

No matter what anyone tells you, there is nothing wrong with using the verb "Say." "He said, she said, they said"-- It's fine. You don't need to use a different verb every time. Different verbs are a great help when you want to add an specific edge to it. For example, if you say "he spat" the words, that immediately implies he was angry. You could also say "He said angrily" and it would convey the same message, but "growled" or "hissed" or "snapped" add a different image to it. It's all about preference and nothing is right or wrong.

Having said that- Don't ever use the word 'orbs'. Never. Please just say 'eyes' sdkfs.

Don't use the phrase "their tongues battled for dominance" because it's a fanfic meme by this point 😂 (I didn't know this when I started and I wish I had! I'm sure I used it somewhere 😂)

Similar to the whole 'Say' debacle, there's nothing wrong with repeating words if the context calls for it! For example, if it's a hot scene, you can use 'moan' more than once, there's no need to look for 8 different synonyms. (Sorry for the example, it was the first that came to mind skdf)

(Actually, I might have a whole list of Dos and Don'ts specifically for smut scenes, but I won't go into that kjsn)

Try to keep all the five senses in mind: sight, smell, touch, hearing, and taste. This is something I personally struggle with a lot, I forget most of them knsf. This does not mean that you need to mention all of them in every single scene, jesus no, that would be too much 😂 Personally, it just helps me when I want to add more to an scene. I think of what sense I haven't mentioned yet and go with one that fits.

Sometimes less is more! Don't worry if your writing style isn't as detailed or flowery as others you've seen before. Some people thrive describing settings, for example, and they might write 3 full paragraphs about the exact shade of the leaves on the trees and what kind of trees they are and how the sky looked and what the wind tasted like. If that's not you? It's okay! Sometimes, just saying "they were at a park with lots of greenery" it's enough. Hell, you could just say "they were at a park" and let people imagine it! Don't force yourself and just write what makes sense to you <3

It's okay to repeat characters' names! This is also something I wish I knew right away. Don't say "the Italian and the mexican" just say "Matteo and Simón". Same thing with "the brunette" or "the blonde". Those are fine sometimes, but I try not to use them either. "Girl," "boy", "woman," and the like are fine too sometimes.

Play with subtlety and try to make it feel human. AKA: try to avoid the melodrama. I've unknowingly fallen into it before so I know that it's hard. Hell- some people like it! And if you do, by all means, go ahead, I can assure you you'll find readers who love it. But if you want to avoid it, like me, just... try to avoid anything that sounds like it could be on Wattpad?? LJDKSF I don't even know how to explain this😂 The only example I can come up with is that, if someone is sad, they don't need to fall to the floor sobbing. How many people do you know that do that? Reserve any big displays of emotions only for huge emotional blows (Someone died, someone is dying, huge betrayal, someone is or could be sent to jail and it's innocent, apocalypse AU, stuff like that).

Also, try to avoid anyone being 100% right or 100% wrong. Real life isn't like Disney. People usually have reasons why they think or act a certain way. A girl might start acting cold to her boyfriend because she thinks he doesn't love her anymore. The boy might be confused and hurt by this because he does love her. If they talk about it, it would be wrong of the guy to just say "Well, you're wrong, I do love you" and leave it at that. We should focus on why the girl thought that. The girl might be "wrong", but feelings are never wrong; they just are. (And she should've talked to him instead of acting cold, they were both wrong in this scenario. See? No one's 100% right)

Personally, I see scenes in my head as if it were a movie or an episode and I describe in words what I see the actors do. That might help you or it might not-- Everyone is different! For thoughts, I just go with what I imagine they might be feeling based on what I know of the characters. Sometimes I have to reign myself in and not make them too self-aware though 😂 They haven't watched all the youtube videos on human psychology and couple's therapy that I have! 😂

That's another thing that might help you! Especially if you'll be writing romantic stories. I was first introduced to the concept of Couples Therapy because of this duo of therapists. They have some YouTube videos and a Podcast on Spotify if you wanna give it a listen. Recently, I've been watching a looot of Cinema Therapy. I totally recommend them! They're very fun and I always find something I can relate to Simbar bc I'm insane

Of course, I research so much because I don't have any personal experience, but if you do, draw from that! Whoever said that you shouldn't put your own stuff onto the characters is a liar! Simón talking about what he missed about México? I was thinking about what I missed while I was away from my own country. Ámbar not knowing that bowling balls have different weights? Literally happened to me- I wanted the blue one! The important thing is to keep in mind what the character is like and not just force your own beliefs on them. For example, I hate Luna with a burning passion, but I don't make the characters hate her too because I know that's not them. My friend Chiara has asked me multiple times why I haven't just killed Luna off in a fanfic. My answer is always the same: Simón would be so sad!!

You can also draw from experiences your friends told you about, or something that happened to your family, or you can read people's experiences on Reddit-- Anything works!

And since we're on the topic, I think one of the things that have helped me the most is just: Read. If you want to write, you have to read, that's just how it works. It helps you a lot to discover what kind of narration you like, what kind of narration you don't like, what phrases you like, what words you like. You can start analyzing what this specific author does so well that makes you love their stories. You can start realizing "Oh, I was liking this so much until they wrote that, I better not do the same thing." It's not about copying word for word, it's about trying to capture the essence and then shaping it onto your own style. (But C, what's my style? What is a style? I don't know! I don't even know what my own style is but I'm sure I have one. If you have your own brain, you have your own style, it's that simple. Everyone thinks differently after all!)

Lastly, but very important in my opinion, once you've written something: Check your spellings and grammar. There's this cool Chrome extension called "Grammarly" that I always use. I didn't know it when I first started and now it's a life saver!

This is all I can think at the moment. I'm sure there's more advice that could help, and I'm sure I'm not a paragon of wisdom, so, I invite you to google writing tips if you like, or you can search for that tag here on Tumblr too if you want some more profesional insights.

My main message to you is to just enjoy the love you have for these characters and let it inspire you. Fantasizing about your favorite ship is very fun! Let that fun be your guide ❤️

Lots of love, Anon. I hope you have a great week^^

[blindmagdalena]

would you ever take writing commissions?

aahhh it's very flattering to hear that anyone would pay for my writing. thank you! unfortunately, my health makes my writing habits terribly inconsistent, and i would feel awful if someone was waiting on me for an extended period to finish their piece.

however, if there's enough interest, this is something i may revisit in the future. especially when my kid is in school full time. i definitely don't have the spoons for it presently, but maybe that will change when i'm not full time parenting. 🖤

Do you know if fresh-bobatae is the real artist? I can't find a link back to Tumblr on her other socials.

I admit anon, I'm not 100% sure. I also saw that on their carrd there was no tumblr so when I found that blog, I hesitated ><" I sent a message to fresh-bobatae on their twitter to be sure, I still wait for their reply and obviously I'll remove the art if I made a mistake I really hope not

[ariadynamics]
