if you do rarepairs, is it ok if you do a fankid for Cherry Blossom and Caramel Arrow? you can take your time, and it’s okay if you say no!
Sorry it took a bit, but here’s Bubble Tea Cookie
I was trying to think of something that could fit both Carrow and Cherry Blossom, and I remembered, “hey, doesn’t Caramel Arrow like boba?” and I knew caramel was a flavor of boba, so I looked if cherry blossoms were in boba, and sure enough, there was Sakura milk tea. So, I decided to just make this one boba tea, though I chose Bubble Tea instead just to make it more vague
I think one idea I had was to name her after another flavor of boba, like taro, but considering I know nothing about boba, I though maybe I should just stick with being vague
I probably don’t need to, but boba/bubble tea (also I used the in game boba as a reference too):
So with her design, I knew one thing I wanted to do was put a pearl pattern on the bottom of her outfit, to make it look like boba. I tried to make her design sort of resemble boba tea, with the bottom being the boba and the top being the cap, if that makes sense. I added in the pink to represent the straw, and also to give some Cherry Blossom to her design, she’s kind of predominantly Carrow. I was thinking about giving her a Watcher outfit, but I decided against it so she doesn’t seem too much like Caramel Arrow. But I mean, I think she looks distinct enough from both of them. Also I gave her the gradient at the bottom since boba seems to usually look darker at the bottom, likely because of the pearls
So as for Bubble Tea Cookie herself, the main thing I really have is that she’s a bomber, because I had the idea of “what if she uses the tapioca pearls likes bombs?” since I know the pearls are chewable. I guess she gets it from her aunt Cherry, who she’s probably close with(also side note, the concept of Cherry being an aunt feels so odd since she’s a kid. Now I’m curious what an older Cherry Cookie would look like). I wasn’t really sure how to make the pearls into bombs, other than giving them little stems, but since tapioca pearls don’t have that, I feel like it looks a bit off
I don’t know if she’s a Watcher or not. I mean she’s probably a fighter in some regard, but I, not so sure she’s a soldier
What else can I say about her…well I imagine she’s probably like a connoisseur of boba, having extensive knowledge of all the flavors
Sorry I really don’t have much on her as a character. My mind’s been sidetracked with Evoland 2 thoughts. But I hope you like her regardless! (You know I’m really noticing how I always end my things with that)
Edit: this is a redesign, even if only slight, and this is the original
#cookie run#cookie run kingdom#cherry blossom cookie#caramel arrow cookie#carablossom#I imagine that’s their ship name#cookie run oc#fankid#fanchild#my ocs#my art#also side note I had another idea for a different ship fankid named Milk Tea Cookie which is another name for boba tea#but with milk tea I meant like “milk in tea” not milk tea#like the British thing#ah whatever I guess we cross that bridge if I ever get a request for that ship#requests#answers#bubble tea cookie

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"
just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible
#due to the Great Data Decay academics write viciously argumentative articles on which episodes aired in what order#at conferences professors have known to engage in physically violent altercations whilst debating the air date number of household viewers#90% of the couch gags have been lost and there is a billion dollar trade in counterfeit “lost copies”#serious note: i'll be honest i always assumed it was english imperialism that made shakespeare so inescapable in the 19th/20th cent#like his writing should have become obscure at the same level of his contemporaries#but british imperialists needed an ENGLISH LANGUAGE (and BRITISH) writer to venerate#and shakespeare wrote so many damn things that there was a humongous body of work just sitting there waiting to be culturally exploited...#i know it didn't happen like this but i imagine a English Parliament House Committee Member For The Education Of The Masses or something#cartoonishly stumbling over a dusty cobwebbed crate labelled the Complete Works of Shakespeare#and going 'Eureka! this shall make excellent propoganda for fabricating a national identity in a time of great social unrest.#it will be a cornerstone of our elitist educational institutions for centuries to come! long live our decaying empire!'#'what good fortune that this used to be accessible and entertaining to mainstream illiterate audience members...#..but now we can strip that away and make it a difficult & alienating foundation of a Classical Education! just like the latin language :)'#anyway maybe there's no such thing as the 'greatest writer of x language' in ANY language?#maybe there are just different styles and yes levels of expertise and skill but also a high degree of subjectivity#and variance in the way that we as individuals and members of different cultures/time periods experience any work of media#and that's okay! and should be acknowledged!!! and allow us to give ourselves permission to broaden our horizons#and explore the stories of marginalized/underappreciated creators#instead of worshiping the List of Top 10 Best (aka Most Famous) Whatevers Of All Time/A Certain Time Period#anyways things are famous for a reason and that reason has little to do with innate “value”#and much more to do with how it plays into the interests of powerful institutions motivated to influence our shared cultural narratives#so i'm not saying 'stop teaching shakespeare'. but like...maybe classrooms should stop using it as busy work that (by accident or designs)#happens to alienate a large number of students who could otherwise be engaging critically with works that feel more relevant to their world#(by merit of not being 4 centuries old or lacking necessary historical context or requiring untaught translation skills)#and yeah...MAYBE our educational institutions could spend less time/money on shakespeare critical analysis and more on...#...any of thousands of underfunded areas of literary research i literally (pun!) don't know where to begin#oh and p.s. the modern publishing world is in shambles and it would be neat if schoolwork could include modern works?#beautiful complicated socially relevant works of literature are published every year. it's not just the 'classics' that have value#and actually modern publications are probably an easier way for students to learn the basics. since lesson plans don't have to include the#important historical/cultural context many teens need for 20+ year old media (which is older than their entire lived experience fyi)

i love your riddle design so much, he's so pointy and british. so gracious. do you think he would enjoy a brazilian goiabada
thank you! ❤️🖤❤️ it's just. important to me on a level I can't explain that Riddle have an extremely pointy nose that he can stick into everyone else's business.
also goiabada is sweet and fruity and red, I think he would like it very much indeed!
not me stealth-editing because I forgot his antenna whoops
#art#twisted wonderland#me: riddle's nose is important to me (draws him without a nose)#a study in contrasts?#regardless it is my power as a fanartist to let riddle eat sweets and by god i'm going to use it#i also love british riddle. briddle. it's just RIGHT.#i think about how someday the anime will come out and get dubbed and riddle is going to have Generic Anime Boy Voice#instead of the most over-the-top prim little benedict cumberbatch accent like he does in my HEART#and the world shall be poorer for it. alas.#i also think it would be VERY funny if malleus had a super exaggerated french accent because something something french fairytale#i am probably alone in this however#(sorry still trying to catch up on everything!)#(all of my focus has been going towards Deadlines so hopefully i will have space to think...eventually :')#(i still have some main story things cookin' and i JUST finished tsumsted 3: the squeakquel so uhhh)#(there may be a bit of a flood at some point. you've been warned.)

So when Pristine cut comes out and everyone has time to soak it all in, you’re all going to go ahead and play Scarlet Hollow, right?
#slay the princess#I wish Scarlet Hollow wasn’t so hard to pitch#like Slay the Princess’s whole thing is so alluring#it’s called Slay the Princess for one#a subversion of a trope#and there’s this weird creepy British guy saying to kill her but he isn’t going into detail#Scarlet Hollow is so much harder to talk about#But it’s so good man

I'm sorry but the irony of Nico calling Max unprofessional is sending me so bad like sir there's an entire garage full of people, who were literally in the trenches trying to survive the Brocedes fallout while just doing their jobs, who might have a few things to say about your (& Lewis') level of professionalism at that time 😭✋️
#f1#formula 1#formula one#max verstappen#nico rosberg#lewis hamilton#brocedes#like niki lauda had to try multiple times to literally parent trap them to try and get them on speaking terms it never worked#because one would arrive they'd see the other and the other would leave#& if i remember correctly the garage crew would swap around from race to race as a like see we aren't favouring anybody gesture 😭#and thats no shade to nico because it was both of them contributing to that environment#his comment re max is just making me laugh#like if i was a part of the pr/media team - which is a part of the degree I'm working on irl - at merc that year i would've lost the plot#like its insane reflecting on it nearly a decade later but the poor souls just trying to do their job in the eye of that storm#truly gods strongest soldiers#ngl the professional comment irks me a bit because its not like max is engaging in inappropriate work place behaviour#he's engaging in another aspect of racing that his involvement raises awareness of & that makes racing more accessible#& we all know how inaccessible not only getting into racing is but also to continue to pursue the further along you go#theres so many stories of 1 sibling giving up racing so the other can keep going because the family can't afford for them both to race#its a huge financial strain & we only see a handful of drivers talk about that & try to do something to change it#and nicos fellow sky sports commentators are routinely unprofessional on so many levels#additionally max had a lot of valid reasons to be annoyed at his team today#but alas he's not english so he's ungrateful#i hate that drivers can't criticise their teams or car without immediately being branded as bratty & ungrateful#ESPECIALLY WHEN THEIR JOB IS TO GIVE FEEDBACK#you can see the double standards from sky when say Lando or George have complaints with their team/car v the likes of Max and Yuki#especially Yuki my god the things i would do to get the British media to leave him alone#this was a jokey post at one point and then became a rant whoops lmao#I'll leave it that before i write an actual essay here 😭✋️

So I watched Hazbin Hotel, (or at least the episodes out so far). And I wasn’t that attached to Vox in the pilot because he was only there for two seconds but he’s now my favorite. I can’t help it he’s so pathetic.
Also I love whenever the animators have him make this face:
Why does he look like a cat??? I noticed the soundwave on his hat looks kinda like cat ears and now I can’t unsee it. How am I supposed to take him seriously when he wears that hat and is constantly making a :3 face? /lh
#i liked Sir Pentious too he’s very amusing#Cherri and Velvette having Australian and British accents respectively is my favorite thing ever#the pacing is a little too fast for me I wish they would’ve gotten more episodes to flesh stuff out but oh well#most of the songs are really good and the ‘worst’ one is just kinda mid so no complaints on that front#hazbin hotel#hazbin vox#vox#vox hazbin hotel#hazbin hotel vox

I've wanted to draw Termina designs for Sheik, Impa & Ganondorf ever since I heard about them being scrapped fishing hole characters.
Impa owns the place, Sheik works there, and Ganondorf just hangs out there with his massive dad energy and metal crocs.
#the legend of zelda#majoras mask#tloz mm#tloz majora's mask#ganondorf#sheik#trans sheik#impa#loz impa#mm sheik#tried to include lots of references in their designs#but the most important thing here is ganondorfs big hat and short shorts#this isnt me making fun of british accents btw i talk like that lol

Alex Albon as The Hermit:
The Hermit suggests that you are in a phase of introspection where you are drawing your attention inwards and looking for answers within. You are in need of a period of inner reflection, away from the current demands of your position.
This is a call to embark on a journey of self-discovery, embracing our true spiritual self and inner wisdom.

punk douxie redesign!!! i just think he should have had an undercut tbh
+ bonus doodle:
i feel like they for sure wouldn't let him wear his whole punk getup at his cafe job so i put him in a uniform. for fun.
#tales of arcadia#wizards tales of arcadia#douxie casperan#hisirdoux casperan#toa wizards#trollhunters#let douxie be punk!! let him have an undercut!!!!!!! he deserves it!!!!!!#tbh his hair is kinda weird in canon? like its all kinda the same length somehow even though it looks longer in the front#so i just thought. why not ditch the bun and just shave the back of it off?#kind of a reverse mullet situation. party in the front and nothing in the back#took outfit inspiration from some british punk bands and things like that. i felt like that fit his vibe#idk. he's just very dear to me and i wish his outfit was less........ idk. walmart emo?#that might be mean. his outfit is fine i just think its the wrong vibe for him#art#my art#weaverofink#oh and if u noticed that i accidentally switched around which wrist the bracer was on. no u didn't
