An impromptu farewell WIP to a brush.

I'm not dead. I'm just juggling three jobs and busy in Veilguard (and overthinking one plot point for a fic). But even if my time for personal stuff is limited and relegated to a sketchbook when I'm outside (I should scan some pages)... One month to reach this point in inking is WAY too much.

I love inking, I love lineart, I worked as an ink artist. This brush is good, I use it for sketching, but for inking? It has a tilt I can't get rid of no matter what, and that's making inking this piece unnecessarily unpleasant. So yeah. I'll do one good thing and start inking it again. I tried. It didn't work, no point in blocking myself to be stubborn about it.

Next step is realising I have free will and I can decide I can skip the last few pages of a sketchbook I don't really like and start a new one. But one thing at a time, this week I've been very good at spontaneity and last minute decisions, we'll save this for next week.

I got home from work, and seemingly out of the blue my brain went ‘hm. Horror squad talking about blood’

the first time Pluto and Slash actually talk, and the first time all three of them talk when Byte eventually joins, they all end up chatting about the best ways to remove blood. Between Pluto, who’s been cleaning up his own evidence for decades, and Slash and Byte, who have had to deal with periods, there’s not much any of them can learn from each other. Except for Pluto’s advice on getting blood off of almost anything else that isn’t cloth.

Also Slash and Byte swear by different brands of stain removers for cloth, and as Pluto listens, he’s realizing that he should’ve made friends with at least one person who got periods years ago, so he didn’t have to figure it out with trial-and-error. Major oversight on his part. Oh well.

Oshi: I don't know what to tell you koi.... We're married. We've been married around 40 years. It really wasn't my choice in the matter but you know I didn't object to it....I'm..... I'm settled

Koi-koi: you shouldn't settle. You're young-

Oshi: hehehe I'm not young

Koi-koi: well you certainly are beautiful and very accomplished I just hate seeing someone like you settle for something less than she deserves

Oshi:.....

Koi-koi:...*sigh*.. If this is what you want that's fine but if you're not happy you have options. You can work on your marriage and your relationship with Shimi or you can just leave him. My opinion you leave him

Oshi: koi

Koi-koi: you can do better I'm just saying

[NOW BOARDING FLIGHT 85. KRILLARNEY]

Baja: I talk to some they seem nice..

Zuzu: well that's nice I would suggest you actually make friends with one of the co-hosts It's better to actually like the people you work with, so be friendly.

Baja: I'll try............. I'm not really good with making friends

Zuzu: ohhh hun..... Just be confident. find someone who has that same energy as you and it'll just click trust me . Have you seen the results for the survey yet?

Baja: no they should be coming out tonight though

_______________________________________________

Down the hall will actually be the set for two of you will actually be hosting the show.... Down on the left side is the food court where we provide fresh meals for you from various chains.

Lyra: her father is one of our biggest investors.

Oshi:.......*sigh*..... ..... All right.....

_______________________________________________

Baja:......................

Ramon: (chewing).......hey .....(chewing).... You want one?

Baja: hem?

Ramon: gum.....(Chewing)...... Octoberry blast.....(POP)..... It's pretty good.... I mean I like squidmelon Punch little bit more but it's not a bad flavor....(POP)....

Baja: oh....thank you ..... I like your watch

Ramon: oh this? Thanks it's a mulex dupe. It's their hip-hop line. This one is based off of the group 'undertow terror'

Baja: oh undertow I'm a fan of them. Little flux, Big Eazy-E and Medium Manuel

Ramon: you like the classic group huh? B.B.S. Before Big Sal......

Baja: I like them both equally, both of them contributed to their voice and talent to the rap group......tho I did enjoy Big Sal's record scratches and remixes in the early days. How he mixes the smooth and easy listening jazz music he got from the surface and mixing with urban hip hop from the underground he grew up with. Breaking it down, constructing and morphing it into his own genre of music really shaped modern music today

Ramon: I agree. I can't argue with that .......but compare it to Big sal's freestyle and his excellent wordplay. Nothing can beat his double entenders and his lyricisms. "gotten close to my goal. Got in touch with my soul". Getting in touch with his soul, explaining his journey to self-discovery but also the soul of his shoes.

Baja: He went hiking a lot when he got to the surface. One of his music videos from 'wise up' was in the woods

Ramon: I remember the commercial he used to do for Rockenberg. . When they used to be an outdoors and camping store.

Baja: actually it's a triple entender you see during 1992 Big Sal was in another rap group called ' journey into the soul' and in 94 they broke up and weren't on speaking terms. It was only until he made it to the surface in 97 he actually started to reconnect with them. So it could also insinuate that he was back in touch with his old group

Ramon: wow you know your stuff man

Oshi: Ramon? your interview is up next!

Ramon: That's me..*uggh*..... It was nice meeting you. I didn't get your name.

Baja: Baja.

Ramon: Nice to meet you man...

Baja: yeah... yeah you too......

Merv: you called and told me you were going to be home by tomorrow. Was your flight delayed hun?

Koi-koi: I would have gotten here a lot sooner except someone........ decided to text me and asked me to bring their suit to be tailored right after I got off the plane. I had to buy another ticket to go to your apartment, pick up the suit........

Ikkan: sorry mom

Koi-koi: head back to the airport to buy another ticket to krillarney and now I'm here. ...... Here you go.... You owe me $200 for plain tickets

Cirrina: the floral mesh!?! AHHHHHHH! He told me it was too expensive!! i have to try it on now!!!

Ikkan: well I guess I need to try my suit... Mom do you think you can tailor it

Koi-koi: no

Ikkan: why? Mom you know how to sew

Koi-koi: nooo nooo absolutely not. I don't want to see my baby in his suit until his wedding day. Go to someone else, I know Mr Higgins across the road used to do it

Merv: Mr. Higgins passed dear

Koi-koi: oh.......oh......well you can go into the city and get it tailored somewhere.

Ikkan: alright

Baja:.......*huff*.......*huff*.........

Oshi: Baja! You're interviews next

Ramon: you got this

Baja: [inhale].......[exhale]...... Okay

Oshi: so you're Baja Genson..... Tell me about yourself Mr. Genson what's something interesting about yourself but you would want the audience to know about you

Baja: ohh....well what would you like to know?....I'm 22.....I have several siblings too many to count hehehe ...um...I play the saxophone... I'm actually in a community band We play jazz, classical and other various genres. We actually have a concert in the couple months

Oshi: that's interesting...... Why do you want this job really

Baja: oh um . ......... I'd say I want this job because I love music but mostly were people involved in music. I love musicians I love their history. I love their backstories and their origins and how they came to be. Not only as musician but also a person. A vast array of knowledge and trivia about artists that a lot of people don't know about and I'd love to share it with the public...

Oshi: hmmm

Baja: I'd also would love to ask the artists themselves about the trivia and maybe give me more insight on it. Like maybe they have a funny story or....... Maybe more context....

Oshi: well..........ok.....my son. You know him right? Can you tell me something about him that many people don't know?

Baja: I guess it depends on which son you're talking about. I know a lot of people know about warabie and his music career. His first ever track that he was credited was actually turquoise October when he was 13. it was on a demo track.... Which was only 3 minutes long.... But you could also be talking about your oldest son Dashie who used to make jingles for commercials.

Personally, I feel like that's a very underappreciated form of art in the music world. He specifically made music for food chain shanty's. But the height of his success was when he made the theme song and composed music for 'the Donnie dock show' back in '08. Though he asked not to be credited directly. He was under the alias of Dave. He's won at least two cabbies for best music composition in the kids entertainment category.

Oshi:........................................................................................................................... I think I'm done with this interview

Baja: oh.....ok........uhhhhhh..... I... I'm sorry I know some people get uncomfortable when I know a little too much about-

Oshi: We'll be shooting the pilot at 9:00 a.m. on the 35th. Come back tomorrow at 7:00 a.m. for your photo and ink lab studio ID...... We're also going to be taking promotional pics with you and Ramon.

Baja:........... I got the job?

Oshi: yes. You're very respectful, you seem very kind , you're very handsome and you show off a genuine love and care for artists.......... Congratulations Mr. Genson You're now part of the ink lab team.

Baja:......*huff*.. ..*huff*....ha!...*huff*.....hu....*huff*..huuuuu........................ Where's the bathroom?

Oshi: The hall on the right

Baja: thank you

[dogbunni]

I went out today and bought a bunch of stickers and GLITTER GEL PENS (!!!)for my nendo art <3 <3 <3 I haven't used gel pens since I was a kid but smth in me tells me that nendo would be fascinated with glitter gel pens and love them so much. Like he would buy a set for "studying" but then just do crap doodles of saiki and ramen in his notebook margins instead and his notes are "jeografey, come to Brasil haha" in pink glitter.

Thus and Thusly

We all know thus is an adverb. It's from the Old English þus, meaning "in this way, as follows, in this manner, to this extent."

You might see a parent hit a child and say "I wouldn't treat a dog thus," meaning you wouldn't treat a dog in the way you just saw that parent treat their child.

Or you might say "I like to describe my sense of humor thus" and follow it with the manner of description you prefer.

You might even say "I am poor; thus I have no medical care," meaning that your lack of medical care follows from (i.e., is a direct result of) your poverty.

"Thus far," we might say, meaning to this extent or point, "things make sense."

Then we encounter thusly.

—

Thusly is a monstrosity. An abomination of idiocy. The -ly ending is clearly meant to turn the word thus into an adjective—but thus is already an adjective!

Here lives stupidity.

My favorite part of the 2018 research article on thus vs thusly that I ran across online was the section where a respondent older than 75 essentially called thusly a stupid word that you use if you want to sound stupid or make fun of stupid people... while a respondent younger than 25 called it an overly formal old word.

Hold onto your hats, everybody. In fifty or so years, the youngsters will be claiming that blorbo is too formal a term to use when describing a fictional character you particularly enjoy.

And they'll probably think it specifically refers to fictional characters with blue or black hair, or something silly like that.

personal headcanon ink has adhd

i dunno about anything else, but i literally cannot get over how much like me he acts when my adhd acts up because it can

...somehow i thought it was friday- it's 11:30 am on thursday. i am so good at knowing what day it is-

My favourite headcanon is that Ink is either non-binary/agender and uses they/them pronouns. Why? RELATABILITY

Also, the guy is literally made of ink, and I don't think liquid has the possibility to have gender.

(It's currently 8:34 pm and I'm chillin'.)
