People always underestimate just how much a little kindness can do. It's an invisible force, soft yet so powerful.
I know that very well, and to know that i was able to create such an impact on someone across wherever side of the globe fills me with so much joy and pride 🥹
I can't wait to see your concepts and ideas here on tumblr <3
Dean Winchester & hug dynamic analysis
I was thinking about how whenever Dean hugs someone he's almost always the one hugging the other and how this links to his psychological trauma of always being the caretaker of people, making himself bigger to protect them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Because that's how Dean sees himself, as a shield for others, and then I thought about how Cas actually is the shield, and he's HIS SHIELD, specifically, the only one who's really there to protect HIM, which is why it hits so much when we see this:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The way Cas wraps his arms around him, trying to protect him with his whole body--that he'd use as a shield and give up in a second if he could spare him from any pain and save him.
(for context: Dean was about to go use the soul bomb on Amara there, it was a suicide mission)
Tumblr media
Bobby is another one that hits, he hugs him as the big hugger because he's his father, he loves him and he's actually here to protect him (and Dean LETS him -barely, but he lets him *and Cas* - in a way that he doesn't let Sam)
Tumblr media
I watched a compilation of Sam & Dean hugs to check if i was right about it, but it's almost always Dean the big hugger with Sam, except when he's about to die or Sam sees him alive again after losing him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even then, Dean mostly tries to hug Sam as the big hugger anyway, with at least one arm, like a way to comfort him, making him feel protected, like his body language is saying "I'm here, I'm okay, I'm still strong, i can still protect you" (because their real father failed and Dean thinks it's his job).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He rarely lets himself be the little one hugged with Sam, unless he's barely conscious. Which is why it kills me so much more now that in this moment (s14, when Dean was going to lock himself in the Ma'lak box cause he was possessed by Michael) and Sam has a desperate breakdown and punches him (to stop him) he forcefully hugs him as the little hugger, the way Dean always kept him, like a way of saying "I still need you to protect me, please don't do this to yourself".
Tumblr media
In the scene below he gives Sam his blessing to do a dangerous (possibly suicidal) mission, and one of his arms is down, but the other one tries to stay up--he's forcing himself to do it and he struggles because he still wants to protect him, but (as the seasons progress) he slowly becomes more prone to let go.
Tumblr media
So in this view the hug dynamic becomes an indicator of how Dean sees Sam (and himself) and his protector role, how adult and self sufficient he considers Sam, and how much he lets people around him take care of him, lowering his walls and letting himself be hugged.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is also why i think hugs from characters like Garth or Charlie are so special, because they're just like us: they see Dean and they just know that he needs to be hugged a lot, and that he's not used to it, so they just go for it-- and it's so normal and kind and spontaneous that Dean's just not used to it-- he doesn't know how to respond (especially with Garth, at the beginning, but as the seasons progress, he learns to, and he even initiates the hug eventually).
youtube
I love the hugs where they're 50/50 (one arm up, one arm down both), feels like they're equals, both taking care of each other. I feel like with Sam and Dean, this indicates a healthier dynamic, because Dean lets go a little of the role that was imposed to him and manages to see Sam as the strong individual that he is. But the same applies to 50/50 hugs with other characters, like with Cas, where I feel like it testifies how equals they feel in terms of being fighters, there's a show of respect of each other's strength that transpires by the gesture (which is even more astounding considering that Cas is literally a powerful angel).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And just to end on a destiel note, I'd like to note the possessiveness and protectiveness of Dean (rightfully so) whenever he finds Cas after he thought he had lost him, and how that translates into his body/hug language:

Dyslexic Librarian
Being a dyslexic library manager will always be worth it purely for this wonderful ✨teachable moment✨:
I misspelled a child’s name on their Summer Reading Challenge certificate (I won't go into specifics, but think "accidental vowel swaps on a common name which then becomes another very common name"). The child pointed this out, and I apologised and showed them my “I’m dyslexic” badge.
Me: Do you know what dyslexia means?
Child: No?
Me: So “Dys” means “difficulty”, and “Lexia” means words. So it means I have difficulty with words! So, sometimes, I find it particularly difficult to read, write, or spell.
Child: *finds this hilarious* NO YOU DON’T *hysterical laughter* YOU WORK IN A LIBRARY *further laughter* THAT’S A LIE OF COURSE YOU CAN READ!
(Reader, please bear in mind that, throughout this entire interaction, I’m somehow still shaking this child’s hand after handing them the certificate)
Me: I can read and I love reading! And sometimes I have difficulty with it. I have a certificate from a doctor and everything!
Child: *continued merriment, disbelief and general amusement*
At this point, the child's mother steps in to explain that (a) dyslexia is real, and that (b) several of the child’s friends are dyslexic, including (c) their best friend.
Child: *continued disbelieving laughter* before *a slow realisation and acceptance of the truth* before *a sudden, horrified thought*
Child: CAN I CATCH IT?!?!!!!
Reader, I may simply pass away from laughter. 10/10 library interaction

Wishing a very happy birthday to my good friend and mutual @karnaca78 !!! Here are your guys! Your designs are a BLAST to draw and I loved trying to do something sort of mimicking art nouveau, since you expressed liking those works before!
Silly birthday wishes under the cut lol
It’s crazy to think we only started talking some months ago in 2023. Your art is incredible and your writing is masterful to a degree I can’t put in words, and I’m beyond honored and thrilled that it was your writing that got me to break out of my shell and talk to you! I appreciate your kind outlook and your passionate attitude, you’ve got this great vibe about you that reminds me why I love this fandom to bits and I’m sure I’m not the only person here who looks up to you immensely, not just as a creator, but as a person! You make this space a brighter place every day! I hope the day treats you well ( ´▽` )ノ🍰🎁 thank you for everything!

hi, it's me again, sorry for sending so many asks in such a short time i'm just autistic and currently extremely hyperfixated on kingmaker haha.
do people just not really care that queer people exist in the vsr? i mean, it is 1911 europe, so usually that would be an issue, but they do have exposure to the good neighbors who obviously like... don't care about that stuff. also creative liberty exists and if it's just that that's cool too lol.
Attitudes towards queerness were actually in a very interesting transitional period in the early 1900s due to things like the Oscar Wilde trial and the Eulenberg affair. Keep in mind Kingmaker is only set 8 years before the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft was opened in Berlin. (By Magnus Hirschfeld, who ran the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee- the first ever LGBT advocacy group.)
So at that time, in Germany at least, they weren't burning gay people at the stake anymore, but there were still laws against having gay sex. (Albeit ones that were very hard to enforce)
More than anything I think that queerness just is not something people talk about in the VSR. It's not polite and it's not anybody's business.

do you think an ask-blog needs art to be successful?
i think it helps because art is kind of just more eye-catching than text - but i also think if you want to make a text-based ask blog then nothing should stop you! i mean, who makes an ask-blog for success. there's so many other things i could be doing if i wanted to be successful. you do it because you want to do it!

It's here! It's the big one-oh! Get ready for the 10th! (1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9)
Tumblr media
Starting off with some Just Desserts stuff; it's not exactly against the rules to modify Pets with features they wouldn't naturally have - like a cat with wings - but it is side-eyed by other players
Tumblr media
He might be projecting just a little bit lol
Tumblr media
Obviously he'd support Joel wiping the floor with other Pets in the arena haha
Next one's a continuation, comic-style!
Tumblr media
Since they've only got the one pet between them, they have to take turns directing Joel so he doesn't get confused on who to listen to haha, I'm sure it doesn't help that they have similar voices and Scriabin is constantly butting in. I think in this setting Edgar might be able to get away with pushing him around a little more haha ♪ He'll still pay for that later :)
Tumblr media
FNF x Vargas! Quick, who wants to collab as I know Nothing about music composition lol - what might their voices/instrumentation sound like! I’ve always been a fan of strings for Edgar, piano for Scriabin personally :)
Tumblr media
These were the two poses I had the absolute strongest mental images for, so they get the big pretties! Scriabin having a secondary feature to his Up animation (not just pointing a finger gun but also “shooting” it), only being visible when the note is held ah, I just love the animation in my mind’s eye lol
Tumblr media
Two poses inspired by their bouncies! Edgar’s Down and Scriabin’s Right - I didn’t have them onhand for reference, but I’d definitely push them closer to the originals :D
Tumblr media
I really like the idea of most of Edgar’s poses being smaller, more closed-in, and Scriabin’s being big and bombastic, but their Lefts are the opposite! Haha ♪
Tumblr media
I've seen a good several songs that have a mid-level transformation which I find Very cool :D I suppose these could also be for different stages, but going from a whole Edgar to him missing an eye and actively bleeding and screaming and stumbling around to the music - I just think it's a neat concept lol
Tumblr media
Scriabin's transformation would be with his wings of course!
Tumblr media
More of the WOY idea! Scriabin's being so nice 😈♥
Tumblr media
You know I had to draw Jake in this style, he's too cute not to, I had to! Fun proportions hehe
Tumblr media
Two little balls of sunshine <3 This was the one where I really couldn't decide what art style I was most reminded of between Steven Universe and the rest haha
Tumblr media
A rubber hose smooch! Cartoony mwah!
Tumblr media
Don't be fooled Wander, kisses are temporary, bullying Edgar is forever
Tumblr media
The topic drifted at one point to the idea of Scriabin and Edgar being able to turn their brain-sharing on and off which gave me a Two Yeses/One No idea
Tumblr media
Started with them on equal footing - both of them can say no to oppose the other, and in order to link back up they have to both agree! And how that might look depending on who initiates hehe <3
I think it'd be good for them to have hard boundaries in place, not able to be coerced into giving up their privacy :)
Tumblr media
As well as them being able to just tap in and Know again, Scriabin using it to be lazy and not try to communicate with his mouth haha
Tumblr media
But even with those hard stops in place, how would sleep affect things! If he tried, could Scriabin break into Edgar's dreams? Even if he gave permission, would his subconscious allow that? :0 It's interesting!
Tumblr media
Quick break for a scribbly concept of how I wanted my first Vargas Drabbles soft cover to look haha - I didn't end up using the red inlay but it's definitely an idea for next time 👀
Tumblr media
Back to brain-sharing, but this time featuring a return to body-sharing! :00 I hadn't considered it until Zarla mentioned them physically phasing together and then became Very interested in exploring it, when isn’t Scriabin annoying tho lol. It’s because you love him, Edgar!
Tumblr media
Falling back into old habits of emotionally degrading Edgar, but he has the power to kick you out now! Just try your smart mouth on him from out here, where it hurts less!
Tumblr media
Get back in on good behaviour, or because he misses him too much ♥ I love his sweet face here I 💕💗💖❤️💞💝
Tumblr media
How dare he be so inviting, Scriabin has to deal with a physical heart and you are trying to kill him, cruel mean Edgar (lol)
Tumblr media
Inspired by the hug test haha ♪ Hug him!
Tumblr media
This was supposed to be a sweet moment :( Scriabin can't help it, being vulnerable is icky haha
Tumblr media
But when offered the opportunity, you take what you can get <3 They are so damn cute, gah
Tumblr media
Hehe ♪ There needs to be Some level of awkwardness to it, it's still Vargas after all. Would it hurt? No, maybe more like an organ shifting back into its correct position :)
Tumblr media
How's he supposed to help it when you make it so easy
Tumblr media
They'd have to negotiate safe and opportune times to share minds if it required them to share a body! Scheduling when to be apart would probably be stressful, but so would being together haha
Tumblr media
Edgar doesn't want to deal with this until he's more awake, and maybe not at all if he gets jealous hehe
Tumblr media
And finally again, we've returned to the Two Yeses/One No idea - who gets to decide who's "No" counts once they're already enmeshed? :) Introducing the Lobster Trap ✨
Tumblr media
“slrch” is such a gross sound effect haha
Tumblr media
Really struggling with the concept of Scriabin’s autonomy! He quite literally exists outside of you now Edgar, you have to let him grow on his own!
Tumblr media
Scriabin probably just wants out to do something Edgar morally objects to, enough to suffer his company while pissed. The idea of Scriabin having his own body and still having to take Edgar over to exert his own personhood again, ugh, it’s so fraught <3
Tumblr media
The Lobster Trap has so many potential outcomes, even discounting one side over the other! Obviously I had to make as many as I could come up with lol; starting with Scriabin getting to decide when he hops in, and Edgar getting to decide if he lets him out - two yeses all around to show it As Intended, all going well :)
Tumblr media
And here are Edgar's No options: his no overrides letting Scriabin out, but does nothing to deter Scriabin from coming in without his permission. I think this is one of the worst configurations for them haha ♪ It’s so easy for them to be cruel to each other!
Tumblr media
Now the other way around! Scriabin has to get Edgar's permission to come in, so here's their Two Yeses :D Obviously he did it to annoy Edgar, he'll never get to read in peace haha. Not that he would even without this hehe
Tumblr media
Edgar's No would shut Scriabin out, which I think would be good for them honestly; Edgar gets time to process things on his own without Scriabin manipulating him from the inside, and Scriabin gets to eat humble pie
Tumblr media
Two Yeses again, though it was hard to imagine a situation where Scriabin would willingly hop out at Edgar's request - to make fun of him though? Yes ✨
Tumblr media
And again, Edgar's No not overriding Scriabin's Yes - I think this would be really good for them! Edgar doesn't get to hold him against his will, and Scriabin doesn't get to burst in without his permission!
Tumblr media
But really, it'll always be messy with them <3 Even in the best scenario, if Edgar's Yes overrides Scriabin's No of being forced inside - even if he couldn't hold him there, just the action of making him see from his point of view and all that entails... ♪
Tumblr media
Little jailbird, just wants to fly away on clipped wings 💔
Tumblr media
Now for something completely different lol. Scriabin wrote a resumé! I’m sure it’s full of accurate information to help him land a proper interview :)
Tumblr media
Good, good, dates, prior experience, employers, skills, conquests-
Tumblr media
Scriabin insists he's a sexpert but if there's a degree on his wall I haven't seen it
Tumblr media
There is such a Massive difference between writing resumés and actually doing the work the resumé is required for, come on. I do love just how miffed Edgar looks tho haha
Tumblr media
S: >:3c | E: Yeah alright point taken
Tumblr media
Tiny spacefiller - he's so mad! He's gonna tell you all about it!
Tumblr media
Oh hey wow Nny's still here, that's neat. Originally there was an Edgar next to him but only the main character turned out cute, rude
Tumblr media
Quietly cutting potatoes <3 Domestic
Tumblr media
I love Scriabin getting scared inside Edgar but him having to put on an outwardly placid face so he doesn't freak Nny out in turn haha. Nny's love language is knives
Tumblr media
But that's where the nutrients are! Speaking of Ghost-
Tumblr media
Teaching him how to flay skin, not necessarily strictly on potatoes hehe. I like the idea of Nny kinda spacing out when it comes to his favourite activities - yeah he hates touching people, but that takes a backseat to talking about murder and playing with knives
Tumblr media
Obviously Edgar's a bit distracted himself lol. Nny just casually talking about what happens when you separate the flesh from the body and Edgar and Scriabin are over here discussing Just how gay this is haha
Tumblr media
I went and reread one of my old drafts of One Way Mirror recently and ahh I’d forgotten how sassy they are with each other lol
Tumblr media
I'm still crazy about them <3 They drive me absolutely mad 💕 I think it's funny too, since I started writing OWM while deeply fixated but didn't think much of the Flavour of my writing I didn't expect anything from rereading, but it does taste a bit like mainfic hehe ♪
Tumblr media
I love when Scriabin argues how much he wants to "help" Edgar while controlling him up and down, Edgar's not about to take this sitting down if he can help it! Also emasculating insults my beloved ♥
Tumblr media
Thinking again about Hunchback; not quite any of the already-established stuff (they're not playing the roles, nor are they separate and seen the movie! What!), about why Scriabin would side-eye Edgar so much during Out There. It's a good song for him :) And I love drawing him like this haha, proud and haughty angle <3
Tumblr media
Edgar with slightly less floofy hair and the closed-line nose style from a few years ago lol ♪ I do like bridge/bottom of the nose style I've grown into, but it's still a fun style to return to every once in a while :)
Tumblr media
And one last sneaky cheeky kiss for smooch practice before the very end! Just try and stop me! Why did Scriabin turn out so pretty tho ♥
So that's June through September, again-again! Well, almost - turns out I actually made too many sketches for my Blank Slate AU/fic - literally as many as are featured here! - so it needed its own post. So please look forward to that!
#💟#Doodles#Art#Sketchdump#Scriabin#Edgar#Jake#Nny#Blood#There's also some potential body horror and possible uncomfortable boundary-crossing so be warned#So the standard Vargas fare haha#Lots of crossovers this time! Practically crossover central in here! Lol#The FNF doodles were like 95% inspired by the absolutely Incredible Animation vs. Friday Night Funkin mod#Specifically Stickin' To It but honestly watch/listen to the whole thing it's actually incredible#I've seen some pretty amazing FNF mods but that one hits different for me it is So inspiring#I mean yeah I already love AvA lol but just ugh the amount of care and work that so obviously went into it <3#The kind of passion is contagious! As evidenced by all the other crossovers as well lol#WOY passion <3 And yeah I'll count Just Desserts too why not haha#The biggest inspiration is still the original tho >:3c Nothing sparks images quite like The Source - of course haha#Conversation is a big aspect of that haha - all of those middle doodles of them mind sharing again were largely just from talking :D#And I mean - some leftover thoughts and feelings about You Can't Live Like This but when am I not lol#I want to see them being good to each other! I want to see them being cruel to each other!#Dynamic truly unmatched haha#I did actually write a temp resumé for Scriabin (as practice :P) but there's a lot of ambiguity left open lol#I do love them being domestic together#Some of these feel real disjointed 'cause if you read the last bit you know I had to cut a lot!#Well rather - separate them out into their own sketchdump lol I can do ~90 images but not double that I already had to make this three times#Which means I Think that I've gotten all formatting errors from attempt two but if I didn't? Just ignore those if you'd be so kind <3#I could go back and fix them but hahahaha absolutely not you actually couldn't pay me#Lol tho ♪ Just happy to have another one done :)

That's a lot of guys he has bit do they turn
Nah, the mechanism for Becoming A Vampire is a lot more complicated than that in Varney the Vampire, and in fact doesn't seem to be explicitly linked to getting bitten at all. The main component to becoming a vampire is having another vampire do a funny little ritual over your dead body. Being bitten isn't a prerequisite so long as your vibes are rancid enough.
