Want to hang out with the Kinito Crew? :)

------

I don't really know the lore for my Kinito group, I just like drawing them hanging out with the user. There is hints of ideas of story, like the idea of virus attacks and the user being in the web world, but other than that, nothing much. If anyone got ideas, im open to hear them.

Anyways, that's all I got. Hope you all have good day/night!

Tim questions 6, 7 and 8😼

first of all thank u for asking!! its an honor❤️‼️

6. What's something you have in common with this character?

WELL... I suppose i can answer this having my perception of Tim in mind.

He has trauma, Jack involved one, but here's the thing. Tim isnt the one to confront it, sure he aknowledges it a little, but to reflect and grow from it fully? He is, in my mind, a person who keeps all his feelings deeeeep inside of him, bottling it all up, disregarding it to the extreme. He has a vague sense of self, dissociating constantly, living in some kind of auto pilot mode. And Jack stuff, he let this all happen willingly, out of self sabotage and or not caring at all (he really doesnt care, not about jack not even about his damn self). So yeah! We kinda share that 😭

7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?

I really like when people dive deeep into his character, trying to paint him humane, flawed, deeply broken. As he is, actually, but it saddens me that i get to see it rarely. Once i do find something like that, its the purest joy

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

Ohhh ohoho well!!! I cant say i "despise" smth but im not digging all soft and cutesy portrais of him. Sure, he is silly and whimsical in some sence but ID LOVE TO see more. The ugliness of it all, his darkest most sinister side, that all people, esp. in borderlands universe have. Those slimey, nasty, deeply thoubling intrusive thoughts he must have. His hatered, immense guilt, shame!

Timothy has SUCH great potential to explore. And ofc its all MY personal tastes and takes, if people see him differently and porstray as such i have nothing against, yall do you boos ❤️

GOSH this was really fun! Thank you towerartt again! Not enough words to describe how i deeply appreciate this and ur wonderful contribution to the fandom. Ur the best 😭❤️

HAVE SOME TIMOTHY SKETCHES ON THE HOUSE

[xjereby]

Hey fellas! Its been a hot minute so let me introduce you all to my Hazbin Hotel High School AU!!

also known as Grimstone Academy (edgy.) Its a private school for gifted manipulators- i mean. thinkers :)

since the parents are paying a shit-ton of money for their teens to be at this academy the students can kinda get away with anything…

except murder… probably…

inspired by Mean Girls, Class of ‘09, and Heathers :)

characters, in order of appearance

Charlie Morningstar - Daughter of the principal, Lucas Morningstar. Homeschooled most of her life until her dad got this job offer, so she’s socially unaware.

Vicky Rivera - Gifted athlete, Coach Adam’s (2nd) favorite student. Generally an outcast due to her standoffish demeanor and interesting fashion choices. She has a personal history with nearly every student listed— almost all are negative.

Anthony (Angel) Ragno - Theatre kid! Generally speaks his mind and one of Vickys only friends because of this. Has been dating Valentino for 2 years.

Harry Petrova - Gifted violinist and fluent in Russian. He keeps to himself and knows to keep away from the crazier students— even though he’s Alastors closest (whatever that means to him) friend.

Alastor Guidry- Top of his class at the academy. Tries to keep close ties with every authority figure he knows— yet he’s frustrated that Charlie gets special treatment. He’s mysterious and weird to most of the students. Most.

Virgil Parr - Alastors’ academic rival. President of the school council and son of two relatively well known actors, he’s spiteful and short tempered, but uses blackmail to get out of any trouble.

Vicky says he could be smarter than Alastor if he wasn’t so emotional.

Oscar Valentino - A major bitch. He cuts class and talks back to authority figures, but his dad is the owner of a major, very bougie fashion company. Thinks very highly of himself and disapproves of Anthony’s friends. He continues to string him along, despite not being all that into him anymore.

Velvette Williams - Self proclaimed queen bee, and best friends with both Virgil and Valentino. She keeps every secret the two share with her, though she may use those secrets against them some day. Also a major bitch.

i got a little too silly w the descriptions LOL but uhh anyway hope everyone enjoys… I will be posting some doodles soon and may even make a whole blog for this au… hehe >:3

Before Carmin becoming a servant from the Dark, she was just a simple, mortal woman trying to survive in a small village in the 1700s. Unfortunately for living by herself and being from a different culture would make Carmin a target of a accusation of witchcraft, due to some infected crops that has been causing epilepsy in some families.

Days before the accusation, a faceless man met up with her in the woods, trying to convince her join him and save her from her tragic fate. Carmin did not believed, she had friends, a home, how could she be accused of witchcraft? All sounded nonsense to her.

However during trial nobody stand up for her, nobody defended her, in the end she was by herself, alone, condemned to hangment at the next morning. An hour before the sun raised, the faceless man showed up one last time, offering her help however with a price: she would gave up of her mortality, part of what made her a human, and she would become a servant from an ancient entity, that demanded hungrily for knowledge. Carmin's only desire was to survive, she did not cared how.

After the painful ritual was completed, Carmin became immortal and with the faceless man's help was able to escape her chains. Leaving behind not only that village but also her past and who she was.

Drew my shiny CHU FAMILY! <3

So I decided to go check out the special outbreaks of the Pikachu line and Mimikyu in Scarlet.

I was super lucky today! This was the best day ever!!!! Six shines!!!!

Read more with pics and more text:

[Sorry about the phone pics.]

I jumped off a cliff heading over to a marked Pikachu outbreak and bumped into a shiny Mimikyu. I was battling the first shiny Raichu when I caught a glimpse of orange and I did a double take with the camera when I had the chance. A second shiny Riachu!!! The other three were from one single outbreak, just like the others. I like to think of them as a group of siblings that look out for one another. :3

CN News: Path to Nowhere Devs' Future plans

All translated by Jiu Jiu subs (@ qwertdwlrma on Twitter):

1) Coquelic is returning

2) BFL DZ optimization

3) Surveillance Order Optimization

4) Preparation of New Content

1) Coquelic

They are finally able to say with certainty that Coquelic will be returning. They are already working on adjusting Coquelic's base art. Coquelic will have a rate-up banner in July. Rain Burst + Floral Unfurl will rerun at that same time.

After mid-June, Coquelic will rejoin the standard, routine, event, etc off-rate pool for CN.

In Global she was never removed.

Coquelic will also be receiving a 2* Attire, available for a limited time. It will be obtainable for free from the Supply Office.

As an apology for not commenting about the situation sooner, when the event reruns they will be giving out 10 pulls for free.

2) BFL

- A recommended lineup feature and increased Sunday attempts, so you can reference who to use and also more freely choose when you want to play.

When designing BFL, they wanted a place where Chiefs could prove their teams' strength and see the progress of their Sinners. However, long-term, the cyclical nature and high difficulty of it created too much pressure for players. In June, they will be changing BFL:

- Implement points and attempts retention within each season. If you beat a boss and earn enough points, you will be able to claim the rewards next week without needing to rechallenge it.

- New mode where you can get rewards for 160k (single boss)/500k (all three total) by simply spending attempts rather than it being based on score.

3) Surveillance Order

They received feedback that the SO cap was too high and could not be reached. They plan to make the following improvements in July when the next new SO releases:

- Players that purchase Advanced/In-Depth will receive additional Surveillance Emblems

- Lower the upper limit level of SO to lv 100. After this adjustment, players that purchase Advanced SO will be able to fully complete it.

4) New Content

In the recent questionnaire, they received a lot of feedback expectant about new content. Rest assured that the production team has been working and planning on that.

A completely new limited gamemode will be launching in August, and will be futher optimised based on peoples' feedback.

They are also working on new main story content.

Delaney -> Romeo: [mater “I want you” png]

Marco Setaccioli, an Italian pro-Ukraine activist and writer I follow and admire, is currently in Kyiv and I want to share this post he wrote this morning on Twitter (in Italian):

"The night that just passed was a very complicated one. Shortly after 1:00 AM, the Air Alert app (essential for security here in Ukraine), which is programmed to bypass the phone's volume settings, started to ring deafeningly, and for the first time we heard the air raid siren echoing throughout Kyiv.

Finding yourself leaning out of a window while the sound of sirens, which in your life you have only heard in war movies, echoes on streets made deserted by the curfew is something you discover you are unprepared for only when it happens and that makes you wonder whether the decision to leave for Ukraine is courage or recklessness.

A Telegram channel reports that a dozen shahed drones had taken off from Russian territory headed for various oblasts, including the capital. The alarm is called off within minutes, because the aircraft are all shot down long before reaching their destination. But two and a half years of war reporting teach anyone who has followed this criminal operation that for Vladimir Putin terror is a weapon like many others and that therefore those drones are just an appetizer, as well as a way to test the reaction of Ukrainian air defenses.

Two hours later (3:10 am) a new alarm and the sirens again. The intuition was right. This time, in fact, they are missiles from the north-east that are keeping several eastern regions on alert and again also Kyiv. Since the previous alarm I have been “sleeping” dressed and with my backpack ready, with the essentials inside. 20 minutes pass and the app warns that the alarm has been called off and a guttural voice concludes in an almost surreal way “may the force be with you”.

At 4:48 am the third alarm. The anti-aircraft sirens drown out the noise of the few cars that had started to circulate again after the end of the curfew. But the app goes crazy. Three consecutive warnings invite you not to underestimate the alert, to find safety in a shelter or to place at least two walls between you and a possible point of impact. The Telegram channel in fact reports the news of at least one ballistic missile launched from the south-east and headed towards Kyiv, an obvious target, since the Ukrainian forces penetrated Kursk.

Minutes of waiting follow, which in a mind unaccustomed to war are equivalent to hours. Then two anti-aircraft shots in the distance. The alarm is called off.

Shortly after 7, the fourth alarm in 6 hours. I am already (again) in Maidan Square to watch the wives and children of fallen soldiers bring a greeting or a flower to their heroes, in this improvised memorial that has sprung up in the center of downtown Kyiv. Three MIG-31s ​​took off from Russian territory headed who knows where, but none of the many passers-by who are already populating the streets stop even for a moment to scan the sky, something that I do almost compulsively until the alarm is called off.

In this storm of emotions, I wonder if what the Ukrainian people are showing is strength or resignation. But I believe that here between the two there is no clear boundary. After all, I think, for me it is only the first day of bombing. Those who live here and have chosen to stay have now stopped counting the days."

[seeminglydark]

Postman Mick Martinez gets more than he bargained for when he picks up a silent young hitchhiker who is unable to communicate the depths of the darkness that lurks within him. The mute stranger carries a shadowy beast who may bring about the apocalypse, but a grief-stricken Mick is preoccupied with demons of his own, including the brutal death of his beloved husband and a feisty teenage daughter with strange, supernatural powers.

Luckily, Mick's not alone. If there's one thing his friends at Brew, the local punk rock café, know, it's to face hard times head on with a daily dose of coffee and hope. Of course, hope is hard to find, and Mick’s not the only one with baggage. Between managing Brew and trying to solve her brother’s murder, his sister-in-law Maddie wants to save the world, even if it means losing herself. Ex-con barista Johnny O'Sullivan struggles with the scars of his turbulent past, unable to escape the shadow of his abusive father. Café regular and celebrity ghost hunter Caro Greene faces an existential crisis every day, as they cope with the dual demands of internet fame and regular encounters with the supernatural.

In one way or another, the Brew crew’s lives intertwine, and their bonds of friendship and love help give them the strength they need to discover the pieces of themselves they’re seeking. But there's darkness descending, and shadows are falling over the town of ValleyRidge. With the help of a friendly ghost, Mick and his friends must unravel the secrets that bind the mysterious hitchhiker's tongue and discover how to save him, each other, and the world itself.

(Some where along the way i realized I never shared the Summary or Cover for my Main Project, Seemingly Dark, but here it is! Check it out on Webtoon or Early Access on Tapas!)

how does one use the pendants you made for artfight this year

Okay! I've seen a lot of people wondering how to use these on ArtFight, so I'm gonna do a quick tutorial for putting them in your profile bio!

So you go to your profile settings in ArtFight, down to where you'd put text and stuff in your bio. Have your text cursor where you want the image to go in your bio! In the text editor, there should be this little icon of a photo, and if you click it a little prompt box will pop up.

You can right click the banner images on tumblr, whatever one you wanna use, and click "Copy Image Link" in the dropdown that pops up. That is what you are gonna paste in the URL box above! My banners are a little large, so if you want to make them smaller you can put in whatever width or height you want (and if you only fill one in, it will scale the image proportionally so you wont end up with a really squished or stretched version haha).

If you want a nicer version of the banners, my Ko-Fi has the actual pngs and gifs of the banners available to download for free, so you can slap them into Imgur and get their image link that way (I've found using Imgur fixes how the gifs look on mobile, theyre a bit broken if you take them from tumblr for some reason).

!BRIGHT COLOURS! LOTS OF TEXT!

Last night I could NOT get this out my head, I repeatedly re listen to the English and German version over and over while drawing this. It's not even done...

Its still stuck even if it makes me nauseous to listen too now

[jgabi51]

“Home doesn’t exist anymore… because of you!”

Sonic Prime was great and I can’t wait to see what happens next. There are still so many questions that we have unanswered. But listen y’all Sonic is gonna need therapy.

!!!!SPOILERS(sort of)!!!!

And its a lot of reading, like if you are going to read this next part sit down and be ready for bad grammar and to think critically

What Sonic is going through in Prime felt like/reminded me of the metal virus and or lost world. In those stories the basics are: Sonic doesn’t listen, does something impulsive, makes the issue worse, everyone gets on the ‘Sonics fault’ bandwagon sooner or later and yells at him; people expect Sonic to fix everything, forgetting that he is a living being too who needs food, rest, support, to fix the problem. In past games Sonic seemed too happy in the face of the grave situations he was faced with. For the sake of argument, to me this is Sonic putting his ‘hero’ persona on to inspire hope in those around him. And maybe to try and fool himself as well. But in recent stories, and under certain writers, Sonic has matured to show more emotion and vulnerability to better flow with the dark themes his adventures address. Some great examples of this are Unleashed, Frontiers, and of course the metal virus saga. To clarify, I’m speaking in reference to the difference between: Sonic showing genuine emotion of (mostly) any kind [typically when by himself as an internal monologue or when around 1+ of his very close friends] vs. Sonic being exaggeratively bravo, trash talking his opponent(s), overly optimistic, and narcissistic [typically dawned while enemies or someone whom he met recently or doesn’t see often are present or when he his in public/has a lot of eyes on him]. Think Sonic in the Tail’s “am I a burden?” Scene in Frontiers vs. Sonic being allegedly in prison and tortured for 6 months after he gets his behind handed to him yet seeming fine and as confident as before once a complete stranger comes and saves him in Forces. Also to note, if it wasn’t clear, Sonics impulsiveness, impatience, quick-wit, fast learning/adapting nature, creativity, sense of justice, and ‘valuing his friends/family’ mindset is shared and holds strong across the board. They’re skills, traits, and morals that shape the spiky blue speedsters opinions and views; his personality. Those things are just who he is. Woo! That was lengthy but theres more, I bring this all up because in Prime I saw hints of both: the too-happy/‘hero’ persona Sonic who’s sassy, snarky, and a bit of an a-hole and the Sonic who feels the pain, would sacrifice a world/universe (hehe) for his friends, is Tails’ (adoptive and unofficial) big brother. This shows that Prime has a lot of potential and Prime!Sonic has a lot of layers yet to be explored as a person. Which may shed light on what Sonics personal and mental journey might hopefully for me be as the story is told. I just hope either Sonic snaps, breaks down and cries or yells and rants about (not killing anyone or a villain arc, just not yet) or if Sonic is gonna be able to keep it together til the end we see him get his trauma addressed. Either way blue is gonna shed tears and its all I can ask for.

Why has no one put a fursuit in a contemporary art museum? It would be bold, fresh, unique, and attract the youths!

Getting more serious now, fursuiting IS performance arts. Sure the fursuit itself and the character design are also art but it's just not the same thing if the fursuit is just on a display or mannequin.

We've grown too accustomed to devaluing art that isn't successful, so much so that we started calling it just "content". It's like calling home cooking "slop".

[tetsuotools]

i have already talked about ffxiv / homestuck crossovers here but idk if I’ve discussed a lot of the parallels i see between the two. there’s A TON of them but one I’ve been thinking about a lot lately is between PM and Venat.

I’m not great with words/phrasing, and also it’s been a bit since I’ve read their respective lore, so I’m sorry in advance about inaccuracies.

I don’t feel like explaining them in great length so I’ll just say this: shoutout to girls with a bright white color scheme who lose everything to take on an insane amount of power and travel to the ends of the universe for the ultimate goal of a better world (and giving up that power in the end.)

this is an older drawing, but I think if they ever met they would be reminded of someone in their respective lives (PM sees WQ, Venat sees Azem/WoL).

In short, I think they could be the best of moirails. They make me very happy <:,)

The body of the Flatlander: Lines

CY'S BACK AT IT WITH THE FLATBIO POSTS!

Remember: I am not a scientist/biologist/etcetera! I'm just some kid!

Remember 2: I should start looking into the possibility of getting someone to help me write IDs for these posts and the Flatland Encyclopaedia, because I can't do it always.

front endpoint of a Line

This has been sitting on my drafts since July 11 but I cant bring myself to finish the other endpoint or use my keyboard [my office is too hot] so I'm terribly sorry for the half baked post.

The eye is the brightest part of the body. You could argue that Lines have two eyes because of the division that allows them to breathe.. but it doesnt disrupt the brightness so meh. One eye.

I suppose that suction to the eye [through the respiratory hole sucking air in] could be another way for them to grab things, for as long as they can hold their breath.

Talking about holding their breath, they don't need air to perform their peace cry or to speak. Flatlanders have a tymbal-like organ, like an insect. So they can speak while eating etc. Some sounds do need air, but theyre mostly related to emotion and are used in conjugation to their tymbal chirps.

Around the Line's tymbal, above the lung, lays the occipital lobe and receptors. The receptors of the eye of a Flatlander are sensitive to light [Sight] and also extremely sensitive to touch [Feeling] – the occipital lobe's primary visual cortex right under the eye handles the information it receives and directs the tymbal.

The primary visual cortex's transmitters send and receive information and directions from the eye+vocal through the space that separates them [the lung] from the main brain. The other half of the occipital connects to the rest of the brain.

Under the brain, which extends for the vast majority of the Line's body, is the centroid/heart, which isnt actually situated at the center of the Line. [Still not 100% sure whether they have hearts, but I like the geometry reference—]

Under that is the digestive system. The "throat" from stomach to mouth is off to the side. On the other side is the reproductive system/womb. At last there's the mouth/beak, which unlike the eyepoint is much sharper. You can still die if you're stabbed by the frontpoint. Don't get cocky.
