Dude your art is literally amazing... do you have any general idea of when you might open up your commissions? I’d love to get a piece by you

Wow thanks so much! I have an inkling of a feeling that I’ll be opening up some commission slots sometime around late May. I’ll definitely be posting a commission price sheet/announcement during that time so keep your eyes peeled for that! :D

Leo: I don’t know man, Annabeth is kinda intimidating.

Percy: Nah. She may seem harsh, but you just need to learn how to speak Annabeth.

Annabeth: You little bastards ruin everything!

Percy: For someone so smart, you sure act like an idiot.

Annabeth: Where have you been?! I thought you were dead! I could kill you!

Percy: I was worried about you.

Annabeth: You know what, I don’t say it enough, but you’re not a total moron all the time.

Percy: I love you.

I've been having a hard time finding answers online, so I was wondering how extensive your knowledge is on out of body experiences? The scene I'm trying to write has a character unconscious and I was wondering if it's possible to have an OBE during that?

Wonderful question! I thought the answers would bemore straight-forward, and I was surprised at what I came across.

I’m really glad I put the legwork into this, and Ihope it helps you!

If you know how to read research reports (sinceit’s mostly complex jargon, more often than not), Google Scholar is a goodplace to get some facts and figures. Make sure the articles are from within thepast 10 years, or you may find stuff that’s severely outdated.

Anyway…

The short answer: yes! Apparently!

Other relevant things to look up include sleepparalysis, astral projection, near-death experiences (NDEs), and lucid dreaming.

The links below describe some harrowing anddistressing situations. Proceed with that in mind!

Here’s an anecdote about a possible NDE that ledto an OBE—I think it’ll be the closest to what you’re writing: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/aug/02/my-out-of-body-experience

Here are some anecdotes that pretty decisivelyexplain that being unconscious while having an OBE is totally possible: https://www.theepochtimes.com/6-stories-that-could-make-you-believe-in-out-of-body-experiences_509167.html

Another interesting one: https://www.theepochtimes.com/uplift/man-predicts-terror-attack-in-out-of-body-experience-witness-verifies_1356434.html

It seems like it tends to happen in times of distress,but not in all cases (https://www.theepochtimes.com/out-of-body-experiences-3-scientific-studies-next-steps_880818.html):

At the University of Ottawa in Canada,researchers conducted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on the brain of a womanduring what is described in the published study as an “extra-corporealexperience.” They avoided the term “out-of-body experience,” because they feltthis term includes an emotional agitation and some other characteristics notincluded in her experience.

In the same article, there is also a case of awoman going to sleep and somehow knowing what was written in an envelope thatwas placed after she went to bed.

Inducing OBEs in people with sleep paralysis: http://dreamstudies.org/2010/10/15/out-of-body-experience/

They’ve also examined a study in which theychecked MRI readings for an experiment that attempted to simulate an OBE: https://www.theepochtimes.com/study-said-to-show-out-of-body-experiences-created-in-brain-critics-respond_1349470.html

A more thorough description of common properties/characteristicsof OBEs: http://neardth.com/out-of-body-experiences.php

A summary of a study done on people with epilepsyand schizoid disorders: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0010945210001486?via%3Dihub

This article addresses how there doesn’t seem tobe any one cause or effect related to OBEs and how it may be related to theareas of the brain that have your spatial senses: https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2017/07/the-neuroscience-of-out-of-body-experiences/534696/

Patients under anesthesia can also have OBEs: http://www.anesthesiaweb.org/anesthesia-and-obe.php

Thanks man!

Hey! Love the account! I was wondering if you could give me some prompts for A, B, and C. A is capable of taking care of themself, yet the B and C are constantly acting like they're A's assigned bodyguards. They completely ignore the fact that A could probably kill them in a fight.

“Don’t worry, you sit back and we’ll take care of this!”

“You two are incredibly frustrating. I can handle this myself.”

“Doesn’t stop us from wanting to help you when we can.”

“You’re not alone, so you don’t have to act like you are.”

5, 13, 14?

5. Your OC's worst habit?

robbie’s worst habit is injury oriented. he doesn’t always take damage to himself super seriously, so when his team is patching up post - mission, he’s just. there eating a banana, dripping blood onto the carpet like ‘wow you guys sure do go through a lot of gauze and bandages’ ( rest assured his best friend yells at him and makes sure he gets patched up — his pain tolerance is a little bit fucked so smaller injuries just do not bother him in the slightest )  (( it’s still unnerving as shit tho rob needs to quit it ))

13. Does your OC have a widow 's peak?

robbie and billie definitely do not, shanta does!

14. Happy birthday! What kind of present would your OC want?

anything related to star wars. robbie has been a huge fan his whole life and while he appreciates any kind of present, thoughtful or otherwise, nothing quite makes him smile the way sw merch does. his birthday, may the 4th, kinda. well, it’s a hint in itself

Lmao nice Butterfly Soup avatar

Thank you! I have some questions about yours

[zachdoesfanart]

Hey so just out of curiosity, are you still going to be uploading the merman!Percy AU comic? Or have you ditched it haha

No, I’m still working on it. I have the sketches for Part V and plans for VI and VII, but my computer died on me and I just got a job, so my time has been at a premium. Be assured, I have not given up on my finny friends

[nicoryio]

Do you think you'd be able to draw Hades kid!Annabeth and Zeus kid!Percy? I saw that requests were open and I love parent swaps haha. And I love your style!

Bleeding heart and bloom :)

What makes your heart go mushy? Really well done final scenes in book or television series. Birthday messages. My boyfriend. 

What is something that you’d like to tell your children? Well, I’m honestly not sure if I want kids or not, but if in the event I end up having/adopting any, I’d want them to know they’re unconditionally loved, and that the world is theirs for the taking.
