I absolutely HAD to draw something for @phoebepheebsphibs's DTIYS (based on this pose)! I decided to mix things up a bit by experimenting with a more limited color palette, which was a pretty fun challenge.

fuckin…. im a bit grouchy today, but reading “omg someone who draws, draw this extremely complicated and time consuming idea I had for free teehee just throwing this idea out there” makes me want to chew concrete, this isnt cute, you arent coy. just the flippancy of it rubs me the wrong way, “teehee im not asking for artists to draw for me for free, im just throwing this idea out there teehee”

Drives me up the walls, you want your ideas drawn, animated, whatever? Fucking pay an artist

looking for a composer willing to compose some tracks for an rpg maker horror game!

hi there! my name's penny and i'm currently looking to collaborate with a composer versed in piano/atmospheric tracks on a 50s/60s suburban-inspired RPG Maker horror game project i'm making. i have some visions for how the music might sound but i am flexible & overall willing to give as much freedom as you'd like! if you are interested or know anyone who might be interested in doing some collaborative work & maybe filling out your portfolio, please reach out to me via DM here or Discord (@/jokingmotive)!

you can find a short pitch document for my game here if you would like to know a few more details on what the game is about.

this is not a paid job, and more a collaborative project as unfortunately i am unemployed and currently a university student — but we can figure something out if you are in dire need of financial support.

any interest/contact is much appreciated, as i am currently struggling to work on the game with no music. sharing/reblogging would help a ton! <3

my fancy bitch (not really)(kinda) mechanical keyboard, which has a set of lotus ink painting caps from aliexpress and delights me immensely.

I wouldnt want Xig to be some sort of actually "redeemed" or "actually a big sadboy" character, but also by now he *does* comes off as just being a guy who's been around so long/done or seen enough terrible things that he's basically rotted from the inside-out. Comparing Original Luxu and him now it's fairly evident that that's the case. I'd like to see more expansion on him by way of "yeah this guy got put through the human soul millstone and is naught but a fine powdery residue now" pathos tbh

oh he is absolutely rotted from the inside out, shell of a shell of a man. it's been interesting seeing each stage of his downward character arc as he's been processed into finer and finer silt. i imagine he'll show up in missing-link. wonder what fucked up thing is gonna happen to him then! (and damn even if he isn't there. looks at the events of khux. looks at the events of dark road. boy i sure hope this new mobile game doesnt feature horrific death!)

also, anon, i'll be so real with you that i drafted an entire post about Luxu Redemption Arc, what i mean when i talk/joke about it, why i think it's not so far fetched, before i realized that i didn't know whether you meant "I wouldn't want Xig to have a redemption arc" or "I wouldn't want Xig to have been secretly good/already redeemed the whole time". oopsy daisy!

the second i agree with—to me, xigbar is sympathetic and nuanced, but he can be either of those things without being Secretly Good The Whole Time and without being a woobie sadboy who did nothing wrong. (and for the record he can also be those things without a "redemption arc" and still end the story ultimately villainous and incapable of growing as a person, and have that be satisfying and compelling and good!)

in terms of Xig having a redemption arc...my thoughts on that are more complex. watch this spot i guess! and until then, i hope you trust that, whatever it is that makes me believe that he could have one, it's not just wishful thinking, and is based in actual analysis of the games. like, i wouldn't blame anybody for being skeptical of character analysis done by someone who has drawn that character lounging in a state of undress with a riding crop in his mouth. but i'm the kind of person who wants to love a character as they are, not as i wish they were.

(and to be clear, i dont read this ask as attacking me or my opinions or xigbar in any case—your tone here seems very conversational and chill! and i certainly have no interest in Proving you Wrong or Winning Points. literary criticism is fun and toys and playing and sharing and learning. we are passing a ball back and forth to each other and contributing to a conversation. smiles)

wip music whoops-it's-not-monday-anymore 😬

no writing today since we're fresh off the heels of a fic update for katc and most of my writing for it right now is uh. bare bones to say the least. and while i do have an askbox prompt i'm working on, its close enough that i would prefer to publish it once it's ready. so you're all getting music instead.

tagged by @cassietrn, @inafieldofdaisies and @simplegenius042 to share some music inspiring my wips.

here's a track for syb's energy in the first/current arc (ie, the holland valley arc) of katc

Why did love put a gun in my hand? Why did love put a gun in my hand? Why did love put a gun in my hand? In my bed, in my head, in my hand

Was it for redemption? Was it for revenge? Was it for the bottle? Was it for the ledge? Was it for the thrill of pushing my hope to the edge? Why did love, why did love put a gun in my hand?

and under the cut is one that's about my babygirl's enneagram type that just. hits really hard and makes me feel things (especially if interpreting the lyrics as her thinking about/talking to jacob ;w;)

Now you won't see all that I have to lose And all I've lost in the fight to protect it I won't let you in, I swore never again I can't afford, no, I refuse to be rejected

I want to break these bones 'til they're better I want to break them right and feel alive You were wrong, you were wrong, you were wrong My healing needed more than time

When I see fragile things, helpless things, broken things I see the familiar I was little, I was weak, I was perfect, too Now I'm a broken mirror

But I can't let you see all that I have to lose All I've lost in the fight to protect it I can't let you in, I swore never again I can't afford to let myself be blindsided

I'm standing guard, I'm falling apart And all I want is to trust you Show me how to lay my sword down For long enough to let you through

Here I am, pry me open What do you want to know? I'm just a kid who grew up scared enough To hold the door shut And bury my innocence But here's a map, here's a shovel Here's my Achilles' heel

I'm all in, palms out I'm at your mercy now and I'm ready to begin I am strong, I am strong, I am strong enough to let you in

Omg Ssreedy <3 saw you going off in my tags, you're the sweetest! ToT You have no idea how much i cherish your kind words, they really motivate me

Also congrats on the new chapter! It made me appreciate Reho so much, I keep growing fonder of this guy!! (Morrak absolutely wrecked him with his diagnosis tho, haha, my man didn't deserved to get dragged so hard)

Anyway that made me remember that I cooked something up last year, but never posted it. (apologies, I probably got some of their details wrong, I did this purely from memory ////) my headcanons of what Ara & Reho look like

GENTLE TREES NOOOOOO you can’t drop OC art in my inbox and expect me to be even the SLIGHTEST bit normal about it.

You’re so amazing, going off in your tags is a damn honor *salutes*

Dude Morrak WRECKED Reho last chapter, and I guess there’s not patient dr confidentiality in this AU because Morrak totally slandered the poor man to Katara of all people lol. At least Reho didn’t have to hear yet another person try to figure out what’s wrong with him haha.

Thank you Gentle you’re so amazing!!! I can’t wait to gush over your art some more in the tags
