One thing I’ve learnt now that I’ve picked up learning Chinese again is that mnemonics and clever ways to remember things aren’t really necessary, I just have to hear the phrase enough times over a period of time, and eventually it sticks

I wont lie, guren, shinya and mahiru as mlp ponies sounds awesome
i finished them!! yay!!! the catastrophic trio as fucking My Little Pony characters, featuring unnecessarily detailed cutiemarks. 🐎
please welcome with me, Guren as Crimson Lotus,
Mahiru as Midday,
and Shinya as Deep Night. (i guess he could've also been Midnight, but the little pastel ponies often seem to have double names)
i'm just kidding. of course i made him one anyway.
this would have been massively easier (and quicker...) if i had just drawn them as actual mlp style ponies, but horse anatomy is just too gnarly, i couldn't resist. i like horses. sigh.
either way, i think it's awesome how you can just translate their names into english, and BOOM, you have a pony name.

To celebrate the one year anniversary of BATDR's release, I will be beating BATIM for the first time!
The whole thing will be streamed over on my twitch! twitch.tv/pineappleoracle
Come hang as me and a bunch of my nerd friends overanalyze every pixel of this game!
"Pine what do you mean you've never beat batim, you've been running a bendy blog for over five years??" Well you see. Until this year, I didn't have a laptop capable of running the beast bendy fight. It was just way too laggy. I don't even know how I got past Bertrum before.
"But didn't batdr come out on the 15th-" In a hilarious repeat of last year, I am insanely busy on the 15th and don't have time until the next day lmao
Depending on how the stream goes, I might then continue right on to playing through batdr! Or maybe I'll do that the following day, we'll see!

My last intern left abruptly and suddenly before the new year and I wondered and worried what happened. Another coworker is heading out but messaged me her insta info so we can keep in touch and lo and behold my old intern had messaged me a headsup and well wishes that she was leaving and thanking me for everything...that I'm like over 6 months late on receiving. 😭

illusion.
the art of mimicking real life.
-----
BATIM is officially 6 years old..oh jeez. A little hard to believe it's been this long. Six long years since the little devil that invaded my life was created. Where did the time go? Still,it's cool to see how far it's come. The journey so far has definitely been a rollercoaster of emotions,with ups and downs,but even so,I'm still glad I discovered this little guy. He definitely brought me a lot of good moments in recent times.
I didn't have anything really new or done specifically with the anniversary in mind,but I had this drawing I was trying to finish a while ago that I thought would be nice to post on the day. As we can see,this successively failed.I had the idea for this drawing since 2021, and I tried to execute it at the time, but I never made it past the sketches. Then last year I tried to redo it from scratch and since then I've been trying to finish it and post it on specific dates and failing successively.
But eventually, I manage to find the strength to finally end this piece altogether and put it behind me. The main drawings had been finished for a while,it was just a matter of doing...well,whatever the final result became. I confess that I didn't really know how to do the "broken mirror" idea at the beginning. And that wasn't even the original idea that I have in mind back in 2021.
I'll admit the first time I stopped and looked at the glass cracks I was unsure if I was liking how it was turning out. But it's better than nothing. And at the moment I'm just thinking "Bro, stop. You've done everything you could do in this drawing. It's over. Just let it go". So I'm going to do it.
Oh and Joey is here too,I forgot to mention that. Technically it was also his birthday too. So happy day of birth,pencil man. He's definitely going through something in this drawing.
This was mainly made with one of my AUs in mind and the events that happen in it,but I think if you look at it as something more “canon related” (close to canon?),it might work well too. I think at least.
Better finish this desc before it gets too long. As a bonus,here are the two main drawings I did for this piece,unedited (because I'm not going to show the edited versions,I assume they're kinda ugly separately) :
Call me "Bendy and the Ink Machine Remix and Lyric Video" because I was AHHH AHHH AHHH trying to finish this drawing.

Hi I'm starting a journal of all the drinks I've made so far since this is apparently a hobby I'm not stopping anytime soon
Corpse Reviver
Aka, "wizard drink." I've made this one twice now and while it's not my favorite flavor-wise, it is very special to me as the first cocktail I ever made and also because it is now a bizarre little inside joke in one of my friend groups.
I have gotten many weird looks when I tell people I started with absinthe, but hey it's a good (and expensive) time.
