[coulroworld]

being a clown looks really really fun, but i'm very autistic and scared of children and balloons </3

i'm bout to, like, go on an anime protagonist journey to overcome my shortcomings and become the Honkage

[coulroworld]

hello!! 👋🤡

going through my art to pick one made me realize i don't have a lot of finished art of my characters. 💀 nonetheless, here's one from about a year ago:

my commissions haven't been open for a quite long time, but for something as polished as this, i'd probably put it around $95-$120.

happy collecting!

Calling All Clown Artists!

Hello, hello! Are you an artist that loves to draw clowns? Please read on!

I want to start putting together a masterlist of artists for clown collectors to find easily. If you want to be added to this list, please do this;

Reblog with an image of your clown art you're proud of

Include how much you would charge if it was a commission

Feel free to include a hyperlink to your commission sheet if you have one!

Everyone that shows they can and will do clown art and clown ocs will be included 💖🤡 I don't do commissions myself but I used to buy and collect other people's art and I'd love to get started on that again. I'm sure a lot of clown keepers agree, so let's see your art.

Thank you as always clown enthusiasts, I very much look forward to putting this together!

Woke up in the middle of the night (it's currently 3:54 am) feeling an insane urge of showing that I actually DO have ocs but the last time I drew them was last year because the french hyperfixation got me (HELP!!!!!!!) (SAVE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) (I have ocs based on historical figures as well but they're practically identical. Like Camille for example.... The only thing I did was give him freckles and call it my oc)

Do you know what all these four ocs have in common? They're all disabled!!!! I have more disabled ocs (a lot actually) but I haven't drawn them yet or their ref sheets are outdated.

First oc, Kiani (he/him), is autistic and is father to the third one, Artemis (he/she), who has ADHD. The second one, Mikasa (he/him), is physically disabled and doesn't have his right arm. The fourth one, Li-Fen (he/him), is also physically disabled and autistic!! He also has a twin sibling called Li-Jing (they/he), who has monocular vision and is also autistic (haven't updated their ref yet) (but these four also need their refs updated so who cares)

They can also become animals by the way! Here's Li-Jing and Li-Fen and their cat (serval) forms

I thought about Zoro, again. And how he stays calm when all other mugivaras are in disarray. How he has to be the last pilar standing, because if not him than noone. And how some people deam him emotionless and uncaring because of that, because he keeps his cool and talk logic in hard situations. (Like whan they had to leave Vivi behind, or all this mess in inies loby). And I thought how I want someone to see it, and hug him and let him be vulnerable for a bit.

I dunno if I mean it like a prompt, or just want to cry with someone over Zoro. Maybe both. Anyway I would love to hear your thoughts on the matter in any format :')

god yes i knooooow. going insane over him tbh. like i went into this in my previous meta post about him, esp in enis lobby/water seven arc where he is so clearly affected by everything going on but can't show it. (or feels like he cant)

this reminded me of a thing i havent seen many people talk about, which is that zoro is very often 100% spot on with his predictions, gets ignored, and eats shit for it.

like zoro isnt stupid (despite what some characters and parts of the fandom think) hes incredibly perceptive and his cold read on most people will be accurate. theres several moments where he will predice something happening, rationally explains it to the crew how the best course of action is one thing and then luffy being stubborn and the protagonis does what he wants

not to say that thats a bad thing! i think its awesome to show their dynamic

like back on zou when they find out sanji left to marry big moms daughter and everyone wants to go and get him back

zoro is harsh in his wording bc he always is but the core of the matter is this: if they go mess with big mom, while they are already anatagonizing kaido, they'll end up having to deal with two emperors. he understands that sanji knew that which is why sanji left the way he did (partially).

and we all know how that ended

not only that i think this fight is a fantastic display of zoro's core character trait. unlike the three captains in this fight, he doesnt have an ego about it. he's not posturing or peacocking, he knows immediately shits gonna go down (killer too probably but with the mask its harder to tell what killer is thinking) and he's the one person that keeps an overview of the battlefield that includes everyone. law eventually does once he gets over his control issues

and of course thats not the end of it in wano

"ill suffer twice as much after" and he doesnt care, beats king, nearly dies or maybe does die and nobody knows about that whole thing

then of course in more recent chapters (spoilers for egghead below)

we have his fight against lucci which i find striking in how the other characters perceive it

like jimbei can be excused, he doesnt know zoro all that long but the crew acts like this is a point of pride to zoro, to finish the fight. when we've seen zoro run away from fights plenty of times. and to me what he doesnt get to say is exaclty what ends up happening

if lucci isnt taken out, he will tell the elders about the plans he was privy to in eggheads lab. which of course he does when zoro is dragged away

if the vegapunk hadn't stepped in

zoro would have fought the elder and most likely lost

same way he knew he'd not be able to win against kuma

he's telling everyone to stay out of it because he wants to protect them. its not an ego thing for him. he knows the second he stepped up to that fight hes probably going to lose. he's going to do his best to win but he's not delusional

and i find it noteworthy that we are continuing this plot line of the crew not understanding zoro or not trusting him and not to mention this

lucci telling zoro he's dead weight

and a little bit later, sanji telling him the same thing

like, thats not their usual banter. this doesnt make zoro angry to like be able to fight off lucci better or sth. the panel of him standing there just, flinching honestly haunts me. (i eat it up oda please do somehting with it)

esp curious paired with my above example where i think zoro understands sanji quite well where i dont think sanji does in return. (another reason why i cant see them romantically im sorry itd require so much legwork for me to make that work)

i think it can definitely be read as a setup of zoro feeling apart from the crew. i think part of that is just due to the nature of his position as first mate in everything but name. like in a literal sense he is their superior the same way luffy is all of theirs. and we know from the usopp argument that he takes that a lot more seriously than the others. so i dont think - at this point in canon - zoro would open up to anyone except maybe luffy but even then thats not really the kind of relationship they have - and i dont think any of them actually see whats going on or what zoro has been doing basically the entire time.

zoro hasn't been vulnerable since his fight with mihawk

[coulroworld]

for real, tho. when i first started to practice juggling, my forearms were sore for like three days

Just noticed my health app lets you log juggling as exercise

For someone who spoke so fondly about an ex when they are supposedly ‘dating’ is 🫣 let’s just say that Seb and AW are dating, you would be a bit worried with what he said the interview even said he looked hard in thought, he then said it was a simpler time then that’s also weird.. did he mean that now it’s a harder time to be in love as in it’s not easy anymore? and then said that’s the first time he was in love nothing about his supposed current ‘love’ no story’s no antidotes nope nothing everyone else but her? Strange! I get everyone has an ex one you think about a bit but not when you are suppose to be in a loving relationship and not to say it so publicly. And not to be so deep in thought about it in an interview. The Deux was revenge definitely why now? Why wait for this time to say anything, you wouldn’t unless you want to make a statement, not unless you want control a narrative could it be used for future reference to reason why this ‘relationship’ ends. We know Seb has friends who follow deux so we know this will get back to Seb so he will know about it hell they probably listened to the podcast/ i think in my eyes sebastian act single. Its the mentality of a person, when you single you live for yourself and dont watch out for other person and you dont need to think about other peoples feelings and all. And thats how seb act, if he thought about aw feelings and how she might be seen he wouldnt talk so much about his ex, plastic surgeries, addiction to sm and all, he would think that his gf do all of that and people might see and compare her to it what happened yet he didnt care. Because even if aw is around seb in his head is not in rs, he think about himself as single and thats how he act, not commited at all. Aw is the one who reach for him every time, he is just there, she is the one who mention bf, post him and all, and he had a chance to say something about her but never did, he never defend her from anything, hell he couldnt even open the door for her, push her in at last party and drag her threw hotel loby in cannes so fast she need to fast walk to keep up. Its really sad and i would feel so dissrespected if i was aw i would cry. But i guess she whant that because she whant the attention, but the irony is the longer she stay the less she get, people are droping like flys, no likes, no press attention, no articles, no new fallowers, and even her new movies are not talk about or gave negative comments.

And also to the other anon who say about private couple. I totally agree, there is difference in privare and pr. If someone is private they dont bait all the time, dont call pap, dont scrool threw ig just to find and like the commemts that mention your bf, provate is staying silent going to events together as a couple and maybe talking about each other in interviews. What they do is oposite of private, the fact seb dont allow her next to him on most of his work events is telling, he couldnt even pose with her in cannes and he had time for that. Plus the articles, they are so pr it hurts, all of them use the same terms: private couple, loved up, in love, going strong, all of this and aw and seb still dont act like couple, they even sometimes use a pic of them looking unhappy as hell and call it love or try to bend the reality like when they say they walk the canes read carpet together, that they make the apperence yet only if you saw the vid you know that never happened. Everything is stage and bought but still suprose me why they keep this up.

And now aw get less and less attention, sebs movie flop in box office, adm also dont do that well, the deux add too, plus seb is going around making all this big statement yet still is around aw who is oposite of whar he whant, it dont paint good picture of him now, its like he dont practice what he preach. I just whant to know how long and where this will go

The final reconciliation between Sanji and Luffy has some parallels to Robin's declaration of will to live, but there are few obvious differences.

The main similarity between Robin in Ennies Loby and Sanji in Whole Cake, is that they are both in desperate situation which they don't see any way out to. They both also were ready to just sacrifice themselves to terrible fate, believing that it's the only way to save their crew (and in case of Sanji - also Baratie), only to learn in last second that the bad guy doesn't intend to keep their end of the bargain and they're going to kill everybody either way.

And then comes a moment when Robin and Sanji face their captain once again, and even though they tell him to just leave, Luffy has none of it and tells them to state outright what they want. He asks Robin to say if she wants to die, and he asks Sanji to say what he really want.

Now, the main difference is the setting. Robin is on the upper level, surrounded by enemies and wearing seastone handcuffs, while Straw Hats just burned down the World Government flag to show they will go to war for her. Meanwhile, Sanji talks with Luffy on a desolated area, only with corpses of defeated soldiers around them; Sanji managed to sneak out of the Whole Cake Chateau to meet with his captain.

There is also the fact that Sanji points out reasons why he can't go back: because he attacked Luffy, because Baratie is held hostage and because his family is going to die. Because he and Luffy are alone, they can have a conversation like that, while Robin couldn't (partly also because a lot was happening around her, with Spandam, Franky burning Pluton and all).

I've read that people draw comparisons between the two arcs, but I actually think it's good. I've realized long time ago that there is a trend with female Straw Hats' arcs - Nami, Vivi and Robin - when they are dealing with terrible situation on their own and Luffy basically tells them it's alright to ask for help; that he will risk his life for them, because they are friends (maybe it's not as pronounced with Vivi, who - for most of the Arabasta Saga - hangs out with Straw Hats and tells them what they should do, but at some point Luffy has to remind her that during the fight people die and she shouldn't be the only one staking her life on the line to prevent it).

Meanwhile with guys, most of the time things just happen. Luffy says he's going to help them fight and the guys are like: "Okay, thanks!" This was how they defended Syrop Village, Baratie and Drum Kingdom etc. Well, maybe Franky was a dick at first, and Brook told the Straw Hats he doesn't want to risk their lives for him on Thriller Bark, but they quickly move past that, becuase hey, they have common enemy and they may as well fight with it together.

Bottom line is that for once we have a male Straw Hat in a situation which he originally wanted to deal on his own, but he soon realized that he can't do anything about it alone. This time it's Sanji that is told by Luffy to ask for help, because he has friends. And I think it's a nice change of pace.

EG Penrose, Writblr Intro

Heya, I'm EG she/her. I'm just getting into Tumblr in general and started seeing these intros, so here's mine.

I write mostly fantasy with maybe a touch of scifi. I've been inspired by many authors, notably: Anne McCaffrey, Mercedes Lackey, Patricia Wrede, Philip Pullman, Tamsyn Muir.

I have been a hobby writer for years, but I'm working on a novel I intend to publish. I'm discovering there's a lot of process in professional writing that isn't in writing for fun (redo your whole plot, anyone?)

I would love to get more involved with the writblr community, so asks, tag games, all that I would love to be included. I apologize in advance if I mess up the tumblr etiquette (also please feel free to let me know if I do)

My WIP

Touch the Copper Skin of Frog--Work brings Alexander to the recently annexed Noegrad province where he discovers the lobies, a group of individuals unable to talk. Infuriated that more isn't being done for them, he takes it on himself to find a cure (well you know, get medical professionals involved). But he can't make progress until he discovers what took away the lobies' voices.

[lobie-the-cartoonist]

Quick update 🐧

Got a lotta life things going on right now (collegework, moving, etc), so, I'm taking a step back from Tumblr for a little while. My commissions here will also be closed indefinitely. Thank you all for the support! 😎👍

Ladies and gentlemen..... you are very pessimistic) Let's find the answer to one question: why did he choose Melissa?How is she different from others? I can't understand. And so I do not know – either this is really the very relationship that Fer has been waiting for all his life, or it will end badly again...

My thoughts:

1. She is mother of three children. I don't mind, she looks amazing. But children are always hindrance to relationships, especially if they are small. And she has three of them! Fer does not look like someone who is ready for the fact that attention is paid not only to him.

2. Relationship began with deception of their previous partners. Why? Big passion? Lack of adrenaline? Tired of living without problems? He hid relationship with Melissa and apparently for good reason, story in Monaco is confirmation.

3. Good s*x? Yes, it's convenient NOW. But there are too many inconveniences and unnecessary reputational losses, wouldn't you agree?

4. Are we sure their relationship didn't start in 2022? If you remember, he stopped being active with Andrea in November-December. Didn't post photos, stopped putting likes. In January, he didn't post anything from his vacation with Andrea, even though she was with him. It was at this time that they were constantly working with Melissa. Shooting of program, presentation AMR23, interview for DAZN.

*•* Does DAZN have anything to do with this? Whole Lobi thing? I have a few thoughts, but I don't think it's worth talking about now...

He was really happy with the DAZN renewal lol

aku kira gak akan secepat ini

Ayah, kali ini aku nangisnya bukan lagi karena gak bisa selesaikan tugas matematika atau karena sebel dijailin teman sekolah, jatoh dari sepeda, tertinggal di kedai kue, atau salah pegang tangan ayahnya orang lain waktu asyik memilih buku di toko, tidak diberi es krim padahal adik adik dibelikan, tidak bisa ikut teman2 bermain karena harus tetep kumpul bareng keluarga lainnya, dan hal remeh temeh lainnya yang sering ku tangisi di masa kecil

Kali ini aku nangis lihat ayah kesulitan solat karena kaki yang bengkak, kesulitan makan karena pengap, kesulitan beraktivitas karena jalan sedikit aja udah kecapean, tidur sambil duduk karena harus menormalkan ritme jantung, setiap hari disuntik untuk cek kadar gula dalam darah, tubuhmu semakin ringkih dalam waktu secepat ini yah... kukira akan ada hari hari pertama di perkuliahan atau di pekerjaan yang akan ayah bersamai seperti sebelumnya, kukira akan ada makan malam sembunyi dari ibu lagi, kukira akan ada bersepeda 30kilo lagi, kukira akan ada hiking cape yang bikin kita jatuh berdua lagi, kukira akan ada nasi goreng campur bahan makanan di kulkas dan jus campur buah buahan yang ada di kulkas lagi, ternyata hal-hal itu tidak diperbolehkan dokter untuk kesehatan jantung dan diabetesnya yah gapapa biar makan rebusan tapi tetep kita barengan ya? biar jajan jajan di mall kita cium aromanya saja tapi kita tetap jalan barengan ya? biar alarm di rumah dipenuhi jadwal makan obat ayah tapi kita tetep punya jadwal olahraga barengan lagi ya?

Yah, aku udah gaperlu dianter kesana kesini aku udah bisa melakukan semuanya sendiri, aku udah gaperlu ayah cariin baju buat pergi lagi karena aku udah bisa bikin matching tampilanku sendiri, aku gaminta ayah selesaikan soal matematika lagi, aku ga minta ayah buat pecat guru yang berani-beraninya bikin aku nangis sesenggukan didepan ayah, aku ga minta bread talk di setiap 15 juli lagi, aku ga minta ayah pegangin sepeda untuk berani ke jalan raya, aku ga minta buku setiap bulan dan memaksa ayah belikan buat adik2 juga, aku ga ikut ikut ayah meeting dan tertidur di sofa lobi, aku udah ga tidur didepan tv lagi, udah gak harus ditelfonin ditengah rapat organisasi, udah ga harus ayah tanya tentang dosen dosen pembimbing yang ada aja kelakuannya tapi kalau masih mau tanya gapapa nanti kita ketawain bareng lagi aja ya?

Aku udah bisa anter ayah kemanapun ayah mau, bahkan banyak diskusi diskusi kecil terjadi di tengah macetnya kota bandung dalam mobil dengan semerbak kopi kesukaan kita!, aku bisa dana akan bisa kapanpun ayah mau, ayo kita pergi ke kedai kedai tempat beristirahat kita dari capenya gowes sepeda berkilo-kilo, ayo kita pergi ke kajian lagi, sebentar lagi ramadhan yah, ayo kita beli banyak parcel untuk dibagikan, kalau dulu aku yang ngantre di kasir ayah yang cari barang-barang kali ini boleh deh ayah aja yang nunggu sambil jaga troli biar aku yang lari-larian cari barang sampai troli penuh, ayo sehat lagi! biar diskusi panjang kita bukan hanya terjadi di perjalanan menuju rumah sakit tapi perjalanan-perjalanan asyik menghadiri pameran buku atau tempat kreasi yang seru!, ayo sehat lagi ya ayah! 

-awal tahun 2023 yang maasyaallah
