#it is ok. to draw silly comfort art for a year

[capn-twitchery]

i've been much slower & less adventurous with art this year than i would have liked bc of chronic pain stuff, but i am still proud of a lot of this year's pieces!! i couldn't even fit all of the pieces i liked on here, and it's been a long time since that happened♥︎

onto 2025! so i can continue to draw the same 2 guys constantly<3

Arekti Premer Golpo (2010)/// Rituporno Ghosh

As a brown skinned queer girl, born in a country where identifying as *not straight* will get you to jail, I really didn’t have much icons to look up to growing up. The activists in the only formal LGBTQ organisation in our country were all killed off in 2013 (a hushed topic no one knows), so it’s scary as hell. Classmates calling me *hijra* because I liked girls along with boys. Frenemies sending me advice articles on *how not to be gay*. Juniors laughing at my *gender identity* and pronouns. I’ve had it all.

My mom always liked Rituporno Ghosh, saying his films equate to art, but would never show me who he was. Why? My young self wandered off and researched him up a bit. I was shocked to find an androgynous role model, a person who shared the same skin tone as me. It might sound silly today, but it surely meant a lot to the 13 year old fuddled up about her identity in the world.

Years have passed. I’m comfortable in my own skin. I’ve learnt to cut off remarks that do not matter. Ex boyfriend texted that I *looked gay* in a certain Instagram post, I replied *omg thanks <3*. Pansexuality has become such a deep part of me today that it doesn’t feel different. I’m the same human, ok?

I decided to watch up Rituporno’s most iconic film today. It is not a very *talked about film* in the Bengali industry.

Rituporno introduces melancholy as the main theme of the entire story. A gay man wanting to hide behind the story of the film he’s making. Being in love with someone he can’t have forever. As “Basu” describes in a shot, they’re lovers on the run.

Drawing from historic references and *Jatra*, he also explores the androgyny in the Bengali traditions. It magnifies the aesthetic appeal of the film even more. Lovely lovely camera work.

One of the main successes of the themes of “Arekti Premer Golpo”, in my opinion, is that it is close to reality than most other queer stories. The other upbeat netflix series stuff show a very utopian world where LGBTQ lovers live in an accepting world, almost isolated to only themselves. But Rituporno illustrates complex relationship dynamics in his films, leaving the audience to wonder the real chemistry between them (I still need to research).

It’s brain food, it’s thoughtful. I love it.

absolutely 9/10.

Hello, 💜🌹 anon here! I don’t send asks too often but I’m pretty sure that’s the emojis I used lol.

Idk if you’ve been asked this before but was there ever a point you felt apprehensive or nervous about making NSFW art? If so how did you work through it? It’s ok if you don’t have an answer or it’s too personal. I’m just looking to work through some of my own hang ups so I figured I’d ask.

-💜🌹

Hi, 💜🌹 Anon ! It’s good to hear from you; thank you for your ask!

I think I talked about a similar topic at some point, but I since it’s been a long time, I don’t mind talking about it again.

To be honest, I feel like I only had moments of doubt and anxiousness when it comes to sharing art, not creating it. Over the years there were periods during which we wouldn’t post any smut at all, and sometimes we would gather some courage and start spamming it, some other time we created a separate acc for nsfw stuff; I feel like we went through everything lol But no matter what happens with our posting, I’ve always been drawing smut behind the curtains. Fortunately and thankfully, when it comes to art, for the most part I am pretty shameless lol

I was the most nervous about drawing spicy stuff back when I was a teen because I really wanted to start doing it, but it was very intimidating + I felt like I was doing something bad, like I wasn’t supposed to draw it because of how young I was + because it’s inappropriate in general. It’s silly to think about this now… But my very first nsfw sketches had this stupid censor round emoji-like thingie that Katsu absolutely fucking hated LOL

I wasn’t even posting this stuff anywhere, Katsu was the only one who saw those sketches! Who I was censoring it for??

In actuality, I think it was me being very shy about drawing explicit stuff, so those ugly things kind of helped me to get used to drawing smut.

To answer your question… I think it depends on why you have those hang-ups and what exactly prevents you from drawing things that you want to draw.

If it’s that you are not confident in your skill, then don’t worry about it and take it easy. One good thing about nsfw is that it’s pretty fun to study, be it irl/photo references or other people’s art.

If it’s you being uncomfortable or embarrassed, try not to stress yourself out too much; similarly to what I did, draw something that isn’t as embarrassing to draw: a lot of people draw hot stuff without ever picturing genitalia. It’s art, after all.

If you feel ashamed, please don’t be? I know I make it sound easy, but smut and kinky drawings/stories are a pretty natural thing. Even artists who are known for drawing cute things or animating cartoons have a lot of nsfw drawings, the majority of which we’ll never see lol

If you are anxious about sharing your stuff, then don’t do it for now or create a small locked acc for it, or just draw for yourself and your friends for some time. You know, low stakes, high rewards – you’ll develop a habit and comfortability, which is a very important base to build before diving into this.

Whatever is the case, ask yourself whether you really want to draw it or not; because ultimately this is the only reason that matters.

Oh! Watch “Quills” (2000), I feel like it could also give you a nice morale boost lol At least in terms of realising that there is nothing weird or unusual in this kind of interest…

If you want me to elaborate on any of those points or have any more questions, please let me know.

Thank you!

[ace1diots]

In my experience, before I was the holder of the skill I used to just doodle on paper. I love markers. I love whiteboards. Thick blocks of shaders similar to what you see in comics is my go-to style for traditional art. But ever since I became The Artist representing BOW, I learned digital art quite faster than the rest. It was tricky on my first try, like waking up a dormant muscle, but I managed. Once in a while I revisit styles learned throughout the years by my predecessors and improve them, learn a new one so if someone's interested in drawing they can claim it for personal use, or teach a friend to bond with their chosen style like a living book in our magical library if that's relatable. 😂

I'm curious. Do some or each of you have personal art styles? Are there friends who hold the skill, and, probably, consider it as a collective art style? Are you able to share the skill to those who are not used to drawing?

The questions are specific to one skill but it's also applicable to other skills you have like handcrafting, or writing, or a secret third thing perhaps! What have you! I'm happy to listen if you love to dive deep (haha) into the details, or not! Whatever you feel comfortable sharing if it sparks your autism.

Bonus question, free to skip: Cerberus or Hydra are suggested a lot when making a collective sona in and out of the plural community... Did you all vote for the cool bat (the one on your profile) as your collective sona? If so, were there other ideas thrown on the table before choosing the bat? If not for the collective, that's cool. Whoever the bat belongs to, I need you to know that I love it! Still curious about the process. 👀

I've been thinking about what ours could be, but our species differ on a wiiide ever expanding universal scale and nobody agrees to one specific form to represent us all. For sure, we have The Collective Symbol, but it's abstract in nature! We require at least a shape of a creature of some kind! Help! 😅😂 (I'm being silly, not serious! I'm not actually asking for advice but if you're happy to speak your suggestions, I don't mind. Honestly! I'm only invested in your bat - the colors and design are so cool, I love it so much - as someone who is comfortable under the ducksona rather than my human form.) (Sam Lake is a furry, confirmed. —Casey) (I don't know. I like ducks, and cats, and dogs, and deers, and fishes, etc... 😅😂)

Also, maybe it doesn't show but I'm anxious about sending an ask under my name and people finding out who I am but to hell with feeling spooked for simply existing. I consider this exposure therapy. Thanks to my peers support. And thank you to Vis for enjoying the Kesä/Jakala art, and to all the others who enjoy our art in general. My heart swells. OK, where am I going with this - it's getting too long. Excuse me for writing a wall of text. That's all. Please don't feel pressured to answer right away! I have no trouble waiting for months or years, in fairness. Thanks for sticking around reading to the last bit, haha. 🥹

!!!! Ok ok uh for the art related questions yeah a couple of us have different artstyles yeah! For the most part most of us frequent fronters share collective art skill and style as we tend to operate with multiple folks in & around front! But we do have some differences in art style and such, like uhhh Pom and Byte are way too good at art and need to be stopped, Horizon & Zone do linework and stylistic choices that somewhat different to how most of us draw, ❄️ & Sootly & NPC draw very angularly while most of us draw with very round shapes! Sometimes when people haven’t fronted in a while they need a little help drawing because its been a while for them, and other times they’re up to speed on our mostly collective current style already! We don’t quite have one art focused individual but the people i would point at for being the best at our craft would probably be Pom and Byte as most of our favourite pieces have been drawn by them!

Writing is a skill that not as many of us hold as drawing- Gnocchi & Biohazard needed a lot of help writing, while meanwhile our own personal coffee fiend wrote an essay for an exam very well & managed to not panic about it (thank you our coffee fiend,,, i know we all make fun of you for being obsessed with your favourite drink and the rest of us not always wanting it but your really a cool guy so thanks man)! I think Cake, Ark, Amy, and sometimes Timespiral are also some of our general writers, but again thats less of a skill for us in general I think!

Now onto the collective persona development rant >:D !!

Our profile’s little bat guy is actually a variation of our current collective sona, as inspired by one of our irl friends who drew us as a bat! We’ve been wanting a collectove fursona for a little while but were never really set on what to do other than a bit of a general shrug and going “maybe a protogen?” but not ideas other than that. Our irl friend drawing us as a bat made us design this lil guy, as a reflection of our current collective sona with an outfit more like something we might wear irl!

Heres our actual collective sona! Yes its very minecraft themed but in our defence Every Ancient City Is Our Hause !! Most of our past collectivesonas ended up becoming their own people (this actually happened with Byte- it was designed as a concept for a collective fursona and then it formed and now its here as its own person!), making their form no longer represent all of us, meaning that yeah, we fully understand the struggle of trying to make a design that represents most everyone comfortably and that won’t go ahead and form a new guy or just wont be fitting enough to everyone xD

To be fully honest we designed our collective character kind of on accident! It was originally designed for a fashion class we were taking, and then we kept thinking about this guy and at some point someone made him a minecraft skin, and then it got put into an art piece about our experiences with disability for an art assignment, and kinda from that point on, fae have been representative of all of us!

Heres the original sketch of our guy, the artwork in question, and the block version of our beast.

Our collective persona’s a little of a happy accident, but I think it fits us well :D ! Having a collective persona that was a Good Neighbor was incredibly affirming for a lot of us, as a large amount of us in here either are of that ilk or sort of lean slightly in that direction due to our collective perception of self! Of course not all of us are Fae, which is why this guys also a little of a shapeshifter for anyone who wants to draw the collective sona but tweak fae slightly so that its form can feel more fitting to themselves!

At some point, we decided that every Ancient City was our house thanks to a joke we made on our friend CharmLikeTheQuark’s twitch stream while they were playing on Art Of Survival smp, and that jokes kinda stuck around ever since!

The whole deal with our collective sona being a quantum superposition of an offshoot of a Fae court came later when hanging out with our friend Solar, who noticed that for some reason our username was displaying twice when we were playing on a server with them & a couple other friends of ours!

If you zoom into the first screenshot you can kinda see it but its more evident in the second one! But yeah, thats sort of probably why this sona has stuck to us so hard, the idea that it, as a vessel of expression for us, is multiple people too!

Overall, having a guy with themes that fit with things a lot of us enjoy as well as sort of thematically & literally being multiple guys is sort of how we went about realising it was a perfect fit for us, but collective sonas are hard! I send you all luck with designing yours! I guess some of the advice we could give is to go with themes & design choices that primarily stick with frequent fronters but can be slightly altered if need/want be to do so, that way even if it doesnt resonate with everyone, the general idea of “this concept is moldable or perhaps shapeshifter-y in its nature” could stick with more people overall!

so uh yeah thats about it! As stated before the bat variation came about as a variation of our already collective sona as inspired by an irl friends drawing of us collectively as a bat!

Fhew! That was a lotta text, ok! But I hope we answered and got to all of your questions Sam! This took a while to write and is somewhat messy as we’re still sleepy and still in bed, but HOPEFULLY ALL THAT MESS IS HELPFUL XD!

hoo boy did the persona bit take a while but thats ok, it was fun to try to elaborate on all of that!!!

thanks for the ask sam!!!! ahhh !!!! this was super fun to answer :D !!! <33 !!! i hope yall are havin a good day so far !!!!

[noodles-even-less-stable]

EEEE I MISS U TOO NOODLEEE I missed the last stream I think I had a migraine or smth but I’m still lurking and reading ur posts hehehe

For my tattoos I drew them on me to be silly and I got too silly so next Tuesday and the bestie r going for tattoos and Chinese hehehe

So the first one is from Tokyo Mew Mew bc it was my first manga and anime (besides Pokémon and Naruto, my brother introduced those to me). It’s Ichigo’s Mew Mark and she’s always been my fave and I just absolutely love the series and have had the manga for YEARSS and ugh I just love tmm so much. The original artist passed away and she was fr such an inspiration (Mia Ikumi) she was only 42 and died of a brain hemorrhage. She just inspired me in art in so many ways and I just love tmm and the ocs ppl make it’s just so comforting ahh.

The second is the one that’s gonna match with my bestie lol. It’s gonna be kind of that but done by the actual tattoo artist so I’m sure it’ll look nicer with their stencil lol. Just a little SpongeBob with a jellyfish and net and flower cloud. Bestie is getting Patrick!!! His tatts are already on his right and I’m getting mine on my left bc we both like. Idk how to describe it but it only feels right and “balanced” for me to be left and his to be right. (We r both almost the exact same nd like we both have autism ocd adhd yadda yadda hehe we get each other)

We both just love SpongeBob and it just makes me so happy whenever I see him like idk irrationally happy and next week it’s going to be on me FOREVERRRRR!!! Bestie is gonna also get his eyebrow pierced bc he has been wanting it sooo bad and now I’m giving him an excuse.

My parents are going to HATE it but like damn I’m 26 and the world will not have ended so. They haven’t pointed out the drawing on myself so I’m kinda thinking I’ll just not address it and see how long it takes them to notice (it took them two weeks to notice I got bangs once and it took a week or so for them to notice I dyed my dishwater blonde hair BLACK so. Might take a minute!) my dad is mega old fashioned boomer energy bc with any tattoos no one will ever hire me ever at all (I have a job rn and at the last two jobs I’ve had my MANAGERS had wayyyy more tatts he just is crotchety) my friends r joking like gaslight them and I’m just like ykw mama did teach me smth it’s about time I use it lol

Another example of how they don’t notice ANYTHING is that it’s been like. At least a year. Of this cobweb on the stairs to the second level having a dead bug just chillin. Took three months for step mom to notice I put cartoon characters on the frames of her family photos. If I hadn’t shown them my undercut (that step mom thinks is horrible) they would have never noticed even if my hair was up.

When I showed her my hair she thought it was cute and looked good and thick and fluffy as usual until I showed the undercut and then it was terrible and thin and flat and what will I do when it grows out (shave it??? Deal with it??? As one does with hair??? I actually need to shave it lol I got the undercut bc my hair is so thick and takes so much product to keep silky and clean so it’s easier AND feels lighter and less sweaty in summer sooo). Ok yap sesh over thanks for letting me spill lol LOVE U NOODS ♥️♥️♥️🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Lol I love the Spongebob one. I have seen it before and it's always adorable!

Yeah you're an adult they can't really tell you to not get a tattoo it not. But who am I to say, my parents still comment about my piercings and tattoos and I haven't lived with them since I was 18 lol

Lub you too 💖💖💖💖💖

Sorry for the short responses my brain is goop 🫠 I appreciate you and your yapping though 💖

md's fun silly little top 10(ish) arts of the 2023!*

*pretend there's a fun cute doodled banner here (i was going to make one earlier and then i forgor)

doing a lil recap of my top 10 15 (it was supposed to be 10 and i could not narrow it down oops) best(? this is subjective as fuck i guess it's more like my personal faves) drawings of the year! *the crowd cheers* (it’s me I’m the crowd)

15: paradise by the dashboard light! i hate to rank her so low bc i spent ages on her but it seems i don't love the result that much anymore so :/ a for effort for me tho this was ambitious

14: cheer girl loml <33 not my best art technically by far but i went way out of my comfort zone for the background and the art style (for no good reason really) (i just wanted to do a comic book thing bc superhero vibes or whatever) (it did not come out the way i was hoping it would bc i think i got too frustrated) and we simply must acknowledge that. atog did things to me that i cannot explain

13: barbie meme brittana! not my best britt but truly sooo fun to work on. there's nothing quite like finding a fun rendering process and then never using it again (i don't even remember how i coloured this but i like it)

12: cowboy barbie brittana <3 they look good, they're about to kiss, cute outfits, pretty sunset, probably went overboard with the rim lighting, what's not to love? a banger, i think

11: i say a little prayer! i think the background is. questionable at best. but this is still really fun! i think i got possessed when i got to the uniforms bc goddamn they look good

10: klaine?? on this blog???? almost unheard of lmao i truly did not think i would like this one as much as i did. i'd consider ranking it higher if i wasn't constantly Unwell over brittana but again, i'm biased, and no one here should be surprised about that

9: pre-wedding kiss my beloved! with how insane i've been over this kiss it could perhaps be higher. i am gnawing on my desk as we speak i'm not even sitting at a desk rn

8: rutherchang x black swan!! ohhh u guys i don't talk about this one enough i think it's so pretty i don't even remember how i did the colours for it but rhgfdkngd?? love her, love pushing the glee x bts agenda, if any of u gifmakers are interested in making a mike chang x black swan lyric gifset i will love u forever

7: colour wheel challenge! busted my whole tiddies and ass for this one fellas. labour of love etc etc i think staring at the bright colours for so long made my eyesight worse and i'm ok with that

6: mistletoe brittana <33 easily the best instalment of this series by a long shot! recency bias (and also just. regular bias) made me rank her much higher originally but technically she is not the most intricate piece so she must sit down here

5: prom queen kurt! dare i say a girlslay on my behalf? i think i dare. every time i see it i think i should do more glosters (glee posters) and then i don't. i could tho they would be really cool (source: dude trust me)

4: churro kiss redraw!!! genuinely Not Sane over this! never have been, never will be! redraws are like crack to me and so is this kiss

3: furtana!! i neglected them for far too long this year but if neglecting them results in art like this i may have to do it again

2: heart kiss <3 if we're being really honest and vulnerable in the chat tonight i think this is technically my best of the brittana kiss screencap redraw things i've done this year? which i did not see coming but i guess practice means refining the process etc etc so. it makes sense ig. mwah to them <3

1: black or white gcv animation <3 it's not what i would call my best drawing (bc it's, yknow, not just one drawing) but it is what i would call the product of a very obsessive thought and some frantic art sessions. objectively it's the coolest thing i've done this year so it deserves the top spot. i'm proud of it i hope to glanimate more next year. also this isn't art but it's a relevant post that i still stand by months later

hiiii i have a quastion... i have a Facebook friend who's going to Sonic Expo and they have offered to mail me any Silver things they find!

i was wondering if it would at all be possible set one of your Silver stickers aside for them? i absolutely adore your style and how cute you draw him. if that's not an option though i understand!! i just figured i would ask since i can't afford to go myself OTL

@rabbithaver Omfg dude ofc. U are my beloved mutual so Lil Silver saved for you immediately ok. I’m only gonna be at the Expo on Saturday (but I will be there all day!!) so feel free to let ur friend know!! I’m not opposed to contacting them either so we could meet up and I can give the Silver, but if they aren’t comfortable with such a thing I totally get it.

Im gonna make some prints of old arts too so I may try to have another lil Silver thing for you! I made physical copies of that four page Espilver Mini Comic I made for last years Espilver week if you’d like one!

Also thank you sm it’s means so much that my silly style is causing some to smiling like wow…the joy of the world. :D

[sketchquill]

Hello dear sketchquill! How are you?.good?hope so! Tbh I saw you really like sonic! Am I right? I remember I watch it when I was a child and not got too much into it but now after years watching it I thought Bc u like it and ur art so beautiful I want to try it so I try to watch it (the one from 2003) I’m in the middle of it but it’s quite fun silly to watch I may soon want to try to draw it for the first time I still kinda thinking to get into the fandom in the past I was a bit concerned Bc other said it’s a bit weird or cringe but yk what? Sometimes it’s ok to be cringe I been one when I was a kid (from different fandoms lol) and I think I should enjoy my life with the fandom so thx you to let me more interested in the fandom of sonic! Haha (I just like the character’s personality not like those people that fell in love with sonic or others Bc idk why I just feel sonic characters will be more like a comfort silly characters for me haha thx you again!

Plus....

who is your fav character in there?

Hi Zipora!!! ヾ(＾∇＾)

I’m doing fantastic! Haha yes I love Sonic, Oo you’re watching Sonic X? That’s great! I used to watch it all the time when I was a kid I watched the English version of it though not the Japanese one.

I completely agree with you! Who cares about being cringe, let people have their fun it’s ok to be cringe like there’s nothing wrong with it. People seriously need to stop judging others over what they like cause it’s really not a big deal.

Also I’m happy to hear that I could get you interested in the fandom I hope you have fun and enjoy it! <3

As for my favourite character it’s gotta be Amy Rose, I’ve made a lot of fanart of her lmao

Fluff Week FAQ

General

Which characters/dynamics are you particularly interested in?

JJK – literally all common ones unless they’re illegal, particularly the first years & gojo (including all the variations - itafushi, platonic!itafushikugi, the gojo-megumi thing, the gojo-itadori thing, and of course, the much less explored megumi-nobara thing). No very-rare-pairs please, unless 100% platonic! I usually don’t like them. Also, bear in mind I may have to google characters if they come from Kyoto school because I literally forgot all their names.

HQ – I like most characters, but am especially fond of iwaoi and bokuaka (sakuatsu at a push). I love all team dynamics, with a special soft spot for the JNT and Seijoh. Again, no rare pairs please (even platonic, in this case) but I will know who most characters are!

TGCF: fengqing. I’m obsessed with fengqing. And hualian, of course. Basically Xianle trio + Hua Cheng and all their dynamics.

My favourite character is Hua Cheng, followed by Feng Xin, and then – you’ll hate me for this – Pei Ming. Please bear in mind that if you write about any niche characters from tgcf, or those that only appear later in the books, I will not know who they are :( He Xuan is about my limit for late-appearing characters, and he does not appear very late.

Do you mind which ships I use?

Not at all, as long as they aren't a major rarepair, or use characters I've never heard of. If you're not sure, don't be worried - you can always just ask! Either DM me or drop an ask in my inbox.

Are there any examples of found family you could suggest?

Yep! JJK is 100% found family, so there's no issue there - the school dynamic, gojo's dynamic with the students (particularly megumi), the first years' dynamic, the second years' dynamic, the teachers/adults dynamic...

HQ also has plenty of examples. Each team dynamic, duo dynamic, and mentor/mentee dynamic offers something new!

TGCF is a little harder. Nearly all the ships have an element of found family, but there's the Xianle trio and, if you want to get a bit ridiculous, the calamities can also be pretty funny if you wrangle them properly...

Fanfiction

Is reader insert ok?

I'd rather your not, but if you're only really comfortable with that, then go for it!

Is there a word count?

I'd like it to be over 1000 words, but I've yet to meet a writer who struggled with writing too little....

How would I post my work when the time comes?

Assuming you're posting on A03, please submit it to the Astronomical Fluff Week Collection (astronomical_fluff_week), and you can gift it to me if you like. More on this closer to the time!

Art

What kind of art are you looking for?

Any and all! You can do a comic, a drawing or painting, some silly doodles, a meme, anything!

How would I post my work when the time comes?

If you're posting on tumblr, please post with the tag #astronomical fluff week, and tag me in it! More on this closer to the time...

If you have further questions, my DMs or inbox are only a click away! Please only submit asks to @astronomicalfluffweek, but you can DM @astrowaffles or any sideblogs I have!

I forget my talent is writing, and not as much drawing, so I forget how I’m supposed to even express myself. I was always told it was drawing. Then I some things for an assignment and it ended up being published. Anyways, I am getting off topic. I grew up on your Tumblr, and i have been here since the very begining. The world around was shitty and it was my break from everything. I was afraid my au was way to similar to yours and then I found one way it wasn’t. And then, pretty hilariously, that one way didn’t last a month, and I thought that if i made an account it’d look like I was copying you. Pretty hilarious in my opinion, knowing I’m not nearly as good at anything as you. Then there was the point where I couldn’t find your blog on google anymore, so I searched forever for links on pinterest that allowed me to scroll for at least 3 seconds before a pop up telling me to sign in appeared. Then, as that got harder, and i realized there were other blogs like you that reminded me of my stuff coming into light, I decided to make an account just so I could view it easier. Only this year (maybe, my since of time is warped), did i think of actually i n t e r a c t i n g and then it hit me: you literally don’t know me. I don’t know why it never came to me before. I tried to draw fanart and send things in, but i have two issues: being way too silly and having the worst sense of humor that is just begging to be taken in the wrong way. Literally. I tried to draw fanart

This proves how fucking talented I am. My goal was to show dolphin something and it ended up as whatever this is. If you do somehow remember my interactions, I am scared for my life because my sense of humor means you probably think I’m weird, Or blocked me, Because I am that. Fucking. Silly.

Basically what I’m trying to say is I I love you, and I freak out about every little detail and I need to know your thoughts on me so I can finally sleep I want to be you’re friend way too much and I hope you have a wonderful day and I am panicking and I don’t know what else to put and I am blinking two times for help ok and now I am going to the bathroom after I ask this if it even counts as an ask and oh stars why did I say that and seriously I have been so worried about this that I haven’t slept for months (mostly due to ptsd actually, but I’ll still count it) and why did I say this and why did I say that and wow you’re amazing

Eh.... I don't think you are silly or weird. And i don't have much thought of you. So I don't know how to say about this. (It's not bad meanings) I'm just feel thanks that you drawing fan arts of my aus, so uh, yeah.

And if you think you're copying me you can just tell me on DM. Just feel free to tell.

And also, I'm not good at comforting so.. I want to say don't worry about this and I hope you sleep tight.

ok HOPEFULLY. ill be able to at least mark off the definitive goals but as i mentioned in my previous edition of this post, im worried my motivations will fluctuate too much & i actually wont get anything done. which will hopefully be solved with the completion of the Get diagnosed & medicated goal, but who knows if thatll ever come to fruition

🍀 You wish your art was more..(fill in the blank)

🌊 What’s the hardest thing for you to draw? 

🙊 Share your latest silly doodle with no context

Oh fuck the whole thing? Ok

I don't remember when I started drawing, but I was drawing from basically when I could pick up a pen and I started taking drawing a bit more seriously beyond doodles at around 6 years old (maybe a bit older)

Digital

1920x3008 or 300x300

No I don't :(

Facing left. Idk I just got used to it

1-2 layers for silly drawings, 30-50 for serious ones

Scenery, mainly imaginary/slightly inspired by real life

My own characters, character design is kinda fun (even if I do it shittily)

It really depends on what I'm trying to draw and the mood I'm in when drawing, but looking thru my drawings I think I use cold colours more

Music? That changes for what I'm drawing. The music I listen to when drawing has to match the topic I'm drawing and that changes so idk

Have this by my left hand

Wdym favourite kind of lines??? Curves, I guess??

I don't have an aesthetic I try to go for so I guess yes??

I like to think my drawings resemble who I am as a person and my personality

I don't draw too often, maybe twice a month lmao

Night. I get my inspo usually at night

My art blog is @mistycookie

I wish my art had more perspective stuff because it looks so good but it's hard.. also cats

I struggle big time with legs and perspectives

My latest silly doodle is a short video:

Galactic Hunters’ relationship ramble

When I look back at it

I should’ve expect how hunters go how the way they are at times

Especially where I first join fandoms and read stuff, at my core, will always see them (Zim and Dib) as enemies to besties that still bickering. Hunters was start by me want to have an au that they run off together, have their own business, and slowly finally become friends

And at that same time I also adore what some of the fandom do them (Zim and Dib) in romantic sense too. Not as I like I see it in canon; but more so as someone who love to read fic of ships that I not invest and want to see what the people write. Because I know there’s so many good fucking writing on the things I might not like or neutral about it. Like it can be cute and also so character analysis in the way make me goes, ok yall convince me.

It something silly that I didn’t think about it as much.

My top favorite of the dynamic that people write them is more so of QPR (Zadr QPR have all my fucking heart as a demi ace mfer) like the Paklet au or them being absolutely besties (SPACE JUNK ZADF MY DAMN BELOVED)

But there also stuff like the War of Doom, the Last Irken, Curious Dib, and that one zadr fic of them going to space black market (which later become a reference to honestly one of the most influential arc of Hunters but I didn’t get a chance to show on main blog because things goes so fast that I can’t draw on time)

Heck at first the little hint of HD (Seeker) use to have one sided crush on Zim is from me leaving a silly little reference to my respect for zadr content writers that write so well that I interest as a concept. But for me, Hunters was my corner of want to draw them slowly being friends, even how much bickering they are -__-

And then

Seeker did it again, the fucking bastards fall in pale. It not pitch or spade but It still a romance in the quadrant system. That man somehow fall for the stupid bug, THREE TIME IN HIS SHORT 27 YEARS OF A LIFE. And I was absolutely terrified because BRO MY FUCKING PLAN!! WHY YOU FUCKED MY PLAN UP????

And by Zim’s character since beginning, I know he is capable of falling in love, which later be Knelt and I was fucking right that he can.

At least it pale, pale is the closest to QPR, it should be great for me!! Zadr QPR was the favorite content I got in the fandom!!

….and things spiral…

The whole aphobe attack on hunters blog, Seeker make a choice to not show more of his softness to the bug on main. And basically lock 85% of the development behind the close door in process because they don’t feel comfortable at the time.

And things change again

Their relationship become so annoyingly complicated for me who try to organize the plot and stuff. But, that not how Galactic Hunters will do. They do whatever they want. Break my limit with my arts that I probably never gonna show on main unless on Patreon bc I’m still shy heck.

They in all the damn quadrants at once, a fucking disaster of a situationship that they both happily embrace all the chaos. Be the most “I want to make him worst and I will take him back up to the star”. And I absolutely adore it!!! They are such a disaster that give me absolutely HEADACHE, but their bond is so strong that I still think (even Seeker think) that romance is not even a word.

It a fucking devotion.

Their disaster of want each other to fill all the quadrant even tho they are pale is so thems to do. Mutually obsession of want to put themselves it every relationship they can because they are each other’s. They both pissed each other off, riled each other up, and calm all the storm in their soul.

Desperately want to be each other’s everything.

Now after all of this, I slowly come to terms of them go to flush at times, but always back in pale. But I still kinda scare. After the whole aphobe attack on blog, I fucking terrified how people react. I want to show thems to the world and be absolutely brainrot over thems together.

But…. There’s so much I didn’t get to show the blog of how they are behind closed doors, the developments, and how far they come. From self destruction, want to be better, over correcting themself, to embrace the madness of their relationship. I want to show but also there so much

Heck, sometime I feel like Hunters are more so are my OC now with how Seeker is not wish to be called by his old name now. I still find the way to turn them fully into my own OC and alternate the close door development that I never get to show on blog. But the multiverse thing will probably happen to the oc version, which is what cause the change to the hunters in the first place.

I just in a debate,

Should I find the way to back track the development to show on the hunters blog somehow?

Or

just keep that development when I finally turn thems into oc with their own story?

Well, I still don’t know how backtrack the arc to put on the blog, but I still want to show why these two (now plus Knelt) make me so unwell in the best way possible. They mean a lot and I want everyone to go absolutely ballistic with me
