can we talk about transfem david sometime . like that just makes sense . and ive never understood how people ever saw him as transmasc because literally everything that makes up his character is so clearly "cis man that would definitely be happier if he knew that he was a woman"

"Here-ye, here-ye! Your King has finally come to greet you, Shadow Milk Cookie!"

"Stop yelling kid! What on Earthbread makes you think you can stomp in here and shout my ears off??"

"My dearest and sincerest sorries Strawberry Crepe! But I've come to do my due diligence to my dearest servant!"

"Whaddya mean your servant?? HAHAHAAA-- He'd squash your crown with a strong enough puff of air, he'd never succumb to your pathetic claim to power."

"HEY!! Ahem-- yelling is indeed unbecoming for a king, but that was very mean! But you are in luck for not being a citizen of my glorious kingdom, so no royal punishment for you."

"Pfft, yeah right, you're the one in luck you didn't say that when I was in my servant era."

"Is he not here? Should he not have come down by now to greet his King?"

"I couldn't begin guessing why he wouldn't want to come talk to you."

"Well, where is he usually in here? I was told he has left my kingdom in favor of temporary camping in your workshop. Maybe I can just look for him myself in here."

"Unless you can spontaneously fly you're not getting anywhere in that goal."

"Wait, fly? Can he fly?"

"Have you really not heard anything about someone you're claiming to be your servant?"

"Of course not! A good King does not listen to rumours, the common cookies must be given their privacy!"

"Stop getting so loud-- sigh, sounds more like an excuse for you to never have to pay attention to your 'common cookies'."

"Well, if he can fly then he must-- oh, are you Shadow Milk Cookie?"

"Crepe did you start the timer?"

"The roughest of 5 minutes it took before he looked up once."

"Hey! You were timing me!?"

"Your incompetency is far too predictable, Custard Cookie the turd."

"Hey!!!"

"Now when you've used your eyes, mind filling me in? I don't recall any servants flocking you when I saw you last."

"Whuh-- 'saw me last'?? I've never seen you bluey around before!"

"Answer the question I don't want to be here all day staring at your face."

"Saw me before?? When????--- Ugh, nevermind that I guess. All citizens of my kingdom, the Cookie Kingdom that is, are my servants and commoners!"

"Didn't clear much up frankly."

"...Huh? Did you not live within my kingdom for a whole year before coming here to stay temporarily?"

"I thought you didn't listen to rumors."

"Whuh-- yeah I don't!"

"Aww, babies first lies, always the sweetest."

"Argh! I didn't think I'd ever have one of your servants make me more mad than Chili Pepper Cookie! My turn to speak!!"

"I mean that cane of yours can be mistaken for a talking stick."

"Beyond my usual duties of being a good King I came to ask if you had any friends, because usually cookies don't come alone when they become citizens! They usually come in pairs or more, but I haven't heard any mention at all that there are any other undocumented cookies who lived on my land. I would like to meet them so I can do a proper royal greeting to them too."

"It is endlessly amusing that you categorize this encounter as a royal greeting. Anyways, friends huh? I suppose if you desperately wanted to you could call them that, I prefer minions though. They stayed behind, they were worried they were going to get too homesick if they came along."

"Wait, you've got friends?"

"The black and red duo who stole the show for an evening?"

"Ohh, yeah continue."

"I see, well I will consider them honorary citizens and they'll get a proper greeting once they arrive! The Cookie Kingdom is the best place to call home after all!"

"I'll be sure to tell them."

"Excellent! Your highness will then return to their vacation activities, a royal must know their kingly heritage and its history after all!"

"Whatever gets you out of my workshop quicker."

"I must not disrespect my heritage, but clearly the citizens of my kingdom is far nicer than the ones here! >:("

...

"You're not telling them are you?"

"Not unless they feel like going through torture for their vacation plans. :p"

"Maybe not sentence them to hell over there, but I am curious if you'll ever invite your minions over, do you just not like them and had the perfect excuse to disappear for years?"

"I have been thinking about them, red one would in a heartbeat, I'm sure she's still frothing over my disappearance, I don't know about the black one though-- I have a feeling that this crowd isn't his style."

"Do you want to invite them around?"

"And thats where that conversation ends, you have fun with your stuff." Poofs

"Grumble, another one to the list I guess, how does Pure Vanilla ever get answers out of him, I do not get it. >:/"

hiii !!! love ur art lots, so i've been wondering, what program/app and brushes you use? i love the paper effect you give to your drawings, makes me want to eat em /pos

thank you so much!!!! i appreciate that a lot :D!!!!

(accidentally rambled a lot abt this HAHA)

i use medibang!! ive been using it forrrr maybe like 7ish years now... ive been meaning to one day get clip studio or something but i havent had the chance to buy it and im also a little intimidated at the idea of having to readjust to a new program HAHA

i use a few different brushes!! it depends on what im drawing and what i feel like using at the time (i should probably plan them out more often, actually)

oil paint, g pen, fluffy watercolor, and round brush (wet) are all brushes that come with medibang!!! i know i made Another Marker myself, and im pretttttty sure i made the first marker one too? my favorites are round brush and g pen though!!! i tend to use fluffy watercolor more for colors rather than lineart

(i also keep correction at around 12, i would use it more since my hands arent the steadiest but i find high correction to be kinda confusing so i just keep it low)

the paper effect is smth i learned liiiike maybe two years ago ish? and i have simply KEPT doing it ever since HAHA i do wanna mess around with more textures cus i dont want to be too reliant on just one texture for my art but it IS very fun and i like it...

medibang has a feature that makes it REALLY easy to do!!

custom noise is my BEST friend. the sand, watercolor paper (specifically 2), and marker paper (specifically 2) are the ones i use most often!!!

i also will copy n paste color layers and lineart layer, add gaussian blur and do like 200 layer effects (i most often do this to lineart, then set it to hard light and somewhere between 30-60% opacity to mimic bleeding from ink!!). i DO often experiment w messing w colors wo layer effects cus its fun but sometimes its just more fun to use layer effects instead!!

medibang also has materials!!

i dont use them as often but i like this one :D ive used it on a handful of things

and just for fun!!! things look suuuper different without this stuff. like the thing i just posted used a LOT of this (to be honest its cus i really really didnt wanna do shading for it LOL but it still felt too flat and i feel like these effects are a nice middle ground- but i will still often use this stuff when i AM shading things)

sometimes i will also use similar custom noise textures but for different parts of the image!!! like in this one i had a waatercolor texture for the bg but a seperate one for the foreground

i DIIID a while back post a pic of kinger (its an older post on this acc- not old by most standards but it was during the first little while after i made this blog while i was still finding my footing w the characters) that used a bunch of different textures which i got from freestocktextures.com!! but i havent used them since. i keep thinking i should again

ANYWAY thats basically it!!!! i looove medibang theres a bunch of little things ive figured out abt using it over the yrs that im so fond of it. and THANK U again!!!!!! :']

hi guys so i decided to spend almost the entire day working on a spreadsheet that lists every song available in jpsekai (as well as ensekai exclusives) along with the cover artwork, producer, unit, and difficulty levels, with the options to filter on basically all sections. its meant to help make it easier to navigate the songs if you havent memorized what most of them are, but i also just think its fun to see everything laid out!

[neon--nightmare]
