Inktober 2019: Legend

So this was based on an story idea I had. A world where everyone is born a with a guardian. There are billions of guardians assigned at random and are often repeated throughout history. There are common guardians where most people have one and often represent what the person might be destined to do, and then the rare guardians who only show up during different eras or when they are needed. One of these guardians is the guardian of chaos and change, he emerges when the world is about to experience an extreme chaotic time or a change is needed in the world. Then there’s it’s opposite the guardian of order and perseveration. She appears when the world needs to be fixed and saved. It is said that if both appear at the same time, the human’s they are bound too will be destined to either fight or work together for the fate of the world. But over the years the guardian of chaos was seen as evil, having appeared during the worst of times of history. However looking closer he also appeared during grand eras of discovery, but so did she. They believe he is evil and she is good, but neither are evil or good by themself, it’s the human the protect who determines whether the outcome is bad or good.

Anyway, the two young girls got these guardians and are protected by them, the one with the guardian of order is praised and beloved, solely because of her guardian, and the other girl with the guardian of chaos is seen as an omen, causing her to be ignored and bullied by her classmates and the other girl.

That’s really as far as I got with the story idea but the whole thing is supposed to be a “don’t judge others. Judge them on their actions, not with what they were born with” sort of story.

i kinda should talk about bpd symptoms with a professional at some point so that i can adopt healthier thought patterns and not end up in a terrible headspace every time i am alone thinking for too long but also the thought of TALKING about SYMPTOMS with a PROFESSIONAL makes me want to blow up! i’ll get there though

[ichabodcranemills]

I was rereading old transcripts because I had a theory that I don’t actually believe in anymore (fact checking will do that to you), and it’s insane. I genuinely liked Edgar for a second there. What happened?? One would think I would’ve liked him more once we learned he was so fucked up, but I just care less and less about him by the second. It’s so crazy.

TESTAMENT FUCKING TUESDAYYYY

hi. first ever itabag.

i guess technically first FINISHED itabag. i attempted a beerus one years ago but could not find enough merch to fill it at the time so that was kind of a wash. maybe i’ll revisit it someday. you don’t necessarily need to fill an itabag to the brim for it to be good/complete i just personally enjoy the insane cluttered kind of look. this bag is a lot smaller so it required less things to achieve that.

i will probably add some more stuff to the Outside of the bag at some point (like plushie/fabric keychains or what have you. thinking about getting one of those decoden toploaders to put one of my weiss schwarz cards in?) but i think i can say it’s mostly Done :)

unfortunately i was not able to fit every testament keychain i have inside the bag. i wanted it to be full but i also wanted to make sure nothing got too obscured by the mess. i want every lovely face fully visible.

i tried very hard, but after several hours, several rearrangements, and stabbing myself with safety pins at least 3 times, i still wasn’t happy and i had to just throw in the towel.

i’m sorry tsun scoops testament. i really tried ;_;

quincy doodle world hc / analysis time— long post so beware!!!

Quincy gets attached to others really easily. It’s mostly because he’s so used to people abandoning him, whether that be his “friends’” fully chastising him or his father being absent and leaving massive shoes for him to fill.

So he pushes people who genuinely care about him, to an extent, like Portia and (maybe) Reginald away out of fear that the people he’s naturally made to be close to in life will one day abandon him like everyone else, so becomes distant and cruel because of that.

(on the topic, i say “to an extent” because Portia’s (unhealthy) attachment can very well be rooted in her own issues which i’ll get too someday because i love sharing my crazy thoughts and Reginald could very well just been being playing butler for pay, unless his and Quincy’s history goes back further who knows though we haven’t seen the guy since the first key)

Because of this, when he’s placed into a situation where he’s forced to gain independence (after Reginald is teleported to DoodleCo City and his private jet is destroyed) he grows the closest he’s ever been to anyone in his entire life: Player, Suzie, and TJ.

Since he lets his true colors shine (which is first seen near the end of the Book key arc when he finds solace in healing your Doodles), he forms this attachment where he always feels like he has to give back to others to make them stay (the already mentioned healing, the Miracle key arc (which i’ll get to), plus really wanting to help you out in the future while you’re rescuing Suzie).

This could also tie back to his background as the son of Charles. The bullying he endures is obviously rooted in him being “DoodleCo Jr.,” so he tries to defy this image of a spoiled brat when he’s surrounded by people (you and your friends) who see him as a person.

Then again, the Miracle Key arc shows him join forces with DoodleCo again. I see this as him falling back into old habits when he was reliant off the company’s luxuries, but it seems he only joins their “side” because of TJ doing so first; if TJ hadn’t done so, it’s very likely he would’ve stuck by our side.

So I see his decision based either one of these two factors or both:

1. Quincy understands how TJ must feel. He knows what it’s like to be perceived as something you’re not (universal anomaly; spoiled brat). Not to mention it’s eluded to in game of the twos’ character arcs ironically paralleling one another (Quincy starts as a rude only to become kinder at the same time TJ to become more rude, their worst attitudes both based in the expectations placed onto them).

(it’s also funny and weirdly poetic to think the person who is causing TJ’s torment and thus behavior would very well be a Quincy from the future / alternative timeline, Zavier)

This is why Quincy sticks by TJ’s side during the Miracle key arc and why it probably stung even more to feel like he lost him after he departed from the group and devolved into a worse person. And if this continues, we could see TJ become more horrid then Quincy was at the beginning of the game, which would be REALLY interesting to see.

2. That being said, another factor that could’ve influenced Quincy could possibly be him having a crush on TJ (ok listen).

The Frigid key arc shows TJ calling out your friend group for someone having a “crush” on someone. Now, if I’m being honest, this is probably referring to Quincy and Suzie, who very well could be endgame based off their bond strengthening PLUS helping Quincy get over his issues of abandonment, which is a theme that’s revisited at the beginning of this arc through Quincy falling back into old attitudes in the aftermath of TJ leaving.

However, from the perspective of those in favor of what seems to DW’s most popular ship (look on AO3, it’s yaoi slop central there), it’s possible this mysterious pairing is Quincy and TJ. Quincy claims that TJ is his best friend, and would add onto reason for him joining him during the Oasis key arc and could further tie into his need of helping others.

That being said, I see as being unlikely. If this pairing is to exist in any form, I’d see it more as being one-sided on Quincy’s behalf, giving so much of himself for TJ but never reciprocating anything from TJ (ah… toxic yaoi— checkmate Quilt shippers /j).

BUT YEAH uh that was a lot lollllll

(thank you @taruth3mighty for influencing me to vomit my doodle world thoughts)

Doughie has incomprehensible rizz.

Today’s theme was AU/ Crossover, and I… just happened to have one of my old pieces lying around. I posted this on the Reverie discord, and I figured I could use this piece, so I touched it up a bit. It was nice to revisit!

I actually had other ideas for AUs, but my brain couldn’t really connect the dots for them. Maybe someday, or maybe not, I’ll figure them out.

It’s Reverie Doughie and OmariMari. This scene…. was just inspired by my odd sense of humor, and also the weapon description for the shovel (and the fact that they both have shovels.) One can only wonder what’s going through Mar’s head at this very moment. They are conversing about very Deep Things.

Old version.

Will we have an update soon?

Tumblr won't let me make normal posts for some reason, so the update will have to be in form of an answer to this ask smh. Anyway:

Hey everyone!

This post is long overdue, I know. I’m really sorry to those who have been worried about my wellbeing, as well as those who have been waiting around for an update for so long.

I’ve put off writing here because this “update” is something I’ve been wrestling with for a long time. But I can’t keep going back and forth on it forever, which is why I’m now letting you all know that the Shadow Society is officially discontinued.

I know that this might not come as much of a surprise to anyone at this point. I’ve tried to salvage the story by remaking it into something I’m happy with through a rewrite. But I’ve rewritten the rewrite itself more than once, and no matter what I do, I’m just not happy with the result. Rewriting something that’s already published with all the coding it involves is a lot more tricky than I initially thought it would be.

This is not a case of me being needlessly harsh on myself, however; it’s simply a truth I’ve come to realize after struggling to find a way to keep going with the story. I’ll never be fully content with it, or even content enough, unless I’d be able to completely remake and rewrite everything from scratch – and consequentially, I will never find enough motivation to continue because of how unhappy I am with it.

I’ve seen some speculation about my reason for rewriting the story and my long absence, and that they’ve had to do with comparisons to other IFs (well, you know which one). This isn’t entirely the case. While the comparisons did happen and probably still do, and while they were discouraging in the beginning, I can definitely understand where people have been coming from when making them. I talked about this more in-depth in the forums right after the release of TSS.

The main reason for why I can’t continue is that it’s not a series I feel passionate enough about to work on. My tastes have changed, and so has my writing to some degree. I’ve tried to convince myself that I am passionate about it. It’s hard to admit that you’re not when it’s been in your head for so long, when you’ve tried for so long to make this work and when you know that one part is published and that some people are anticipating a continuation. But it had to be done sooner or later.

Other reasons:

-While I don’t think that my writing style has changed drastically, I feel like it is somewhat different from how I wrote back in 2018 (which is a GOOD thing). Whenever I tried working on the rewrite or second book and attempted to emulate the writing of TSS, it just didn’t sound right anymore, and that took a lot of fun out of it.

-With everything that has happened with CoG over the past few years, they are no longer a company I want to write for.

Please know that none of this has discouraged me from writing in general. I still love doing it. If anything, this has taught me a lot about what I actually want to write and the writing process in general. Whether I end up publishing anything else in the future or will simply do so for my own enjoyment we’ll just have to see, though.

I still have the idea of a shadow-like world in my head, and maybe it’s one I will revisit at some point. Maybe there will be another version of TSS someday, albeit very different from the original one.

But for now, I can only thank you all for the overwhelming love and support over the years, and apologize for any disappointment this has caused. If people are interested, I’d be happy to share parts of the rewrite and unused ideas. The Tumblr page will still stay up at least for some time, but I will probably not be answering any asks from here on out.

Said goodbye to the clowny cow today! She got adopted! That leaves the little polar bear and all plushies with this pattern will have gotten homes!

Little black kitty lives with my friend. Maybe someday I’ll revisit this pattern

[skyland2703]

ok this is really random but I’m curious, have you ever made fan art for a fanfic you liked? And if so, can we see it?

sorry if this is a weird ask lol

Huuuuuhhh

I believe I have!!! I love fics that absolutely WRECK me. or first kisses. I’m such a sucker for first kisses—

Let’s see, what we’ve got 😁🫶🏻

This one was for “the high ground situation” by @augment-techs I remember being hyperfixated on this one while drawing this one— I was obsessed I LOVE THEM HURTING AND COMFORTING EACH OTHER Q_Q (x)

This one is for “Walked Through Hell” by @jenscotts i legit cried when I read this T_T (x)

WRECK ME MORE— suicidal Amelia. “A Place Where I Can Belong” by @naraozu (x)

This one was a Valentines Fic— FIRST KISS >.< — by @topofthewinx “Be My Valentine” (x)

This one was for a really really old Spd Sky/Z college AU I’d gotten obsessed with, as a fifteen year old— “Helpless When She Smiles” by Shizinga

And there was a Sky/Z Pirate AU by @lastmafagafo shared with me, which got me obsessedddddd that I drew— and I can share it’s art if my friendo permits :3

It takes A LOT to wreck me, for a ship— and it’s crazy how almost half of those are Javelia. I have old sketches/pencil drawings for other olden SkyZ fics too, but I think they’re kinda cringy >\\\< so maybe if I ever revisit them, I’ll post them!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for this ask!!! I’m pretty sure there’s a few I’m missing, but yeeessssss I love fanfics SO MUCH

Ps: there ARE a couple of fics I’d want to do art for, too, usually multichaps i get obsessed with— and maybe I will someday!! Compiling this was fun and now i… maybe wanna do more :3

[asteria7fics]

Good morning Teri! I hope you have a good day today! As a distraction, do you have a favorite season (or seasons?) of South Park? I'm pretty partial to season 16 myself.

Good evening, friend! I hope you’ve had a good day as well! I’m sorry it took me so long to get back on Tumblr, I’m afraid I had to “work my job” to “put a roof over my head and food on my table”, or whatever. Such bullshit, seriously. (¬_ ´¬ )

I’m actually glad I held off from answering this though, because tonight is when I’m REALLY gonna need the distraction aahahaha.

So my short answer is that I can’t pick just one!! Aaah such a cop-out, I really wish I had a better answer but I’m painfully indecisive.

I know it’s a little unpopular, but I really love a lot of the earlier seasons. The way the boys actually talk like kids, mispronounce words and just genuinely have no idea what’s going on half the time is so endearing to me.

Seasons, like, 5-12 are really fun to revisit because I was a kid when they were airing, so despite not watching the show at the time there’s still this sense of nostalgia I get from so many episodes, like my own childhood was captured in a bottle (I also grew up in a small town where it feels like it’s winter forever lmao).

Season 14 is easily up there for me, mostly because I LOVE the superhero trilogy so damn much. I do fear it would be wrong to call it my favorite season though, as I actually (shamefully) have not watched episodes 200 and 201 in their entirety yet. Trust me, I’ll get to it!!

This is also probably a controversial opinion, but I actually really enjoy season 20. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I binged the whole thing in like a single night on my first watch through because I HAD to know what happened. Also, lover boy Cartman is my favorite ehehehe!

Seasons 3, 7, 11, 13, 14, 16, 20 and 26 are definitely top of the list, anyway. After a quick glance at the episode lists they appear to have the most episodes in them that I really, really liked.

And season 15 gets an honorable mention for having “You’re Getting Old” and “Ass Burgers” but isn’t allowed on the list because “Humancentipad” is my least favorite episode, so points deducted I’m afraid.

Anyway, these are just a few seasons that really stick out to me. I honestly love so much of the show (and I’m not even mentioning the specials here ahaha) that it’s almost impossible to pick just one favorite season. Maybe someday I’ll get my math pants out and rate each episode so I can come up with a concrete, by the numbers ‘favorite’ season.

Thank you for this ask!! It really did help get my mind off things, and I’d be interested to hear what put season 16 on the top for you! (It’s “I Should Have Never Gone Ziplining”, right? I’m not the only one who thinks that episode is a masterpiece… right?)

Anyway, much love! Thanks for reading my rambles! (ෆ˙ᵕ˙ෆ)♡

[pocketsonny]

for the character ask game : how about a throwback to the girl meddy 👁️

Send me a character and I’ll answer these!!

MEDDYYYYY <3333 i still have the icons i'd made back when i rped her...

1: sexuality headcanon: bi bi bi also demiace

2: otp: tie between meddysearch and meddyroll…i love both a lot

3: brotp: aside from the above (bc most otps are also brotps for me), meddy and jasmine 🥹

4: notp: hmm can't think of any but i don't really ship her romantically with rock or jasmine

5: first headcanon that pops into my head:

HHH all my old old hcs about nurse navis being originally created to be disposable / meant to be like tools (in the company/hospital that created meddy) cause hospitals needed a lot of them and they would be assisting different patients all the time. so they were programmed to fulfill their purpose only: that their patients were their priority (yet without attachment bc caring too much for patients would "get in the way of their work", as they would die or leave eventually), they had to always obey doctors etc. and if for whatever reason they were unable to fulfill their duty or were considered to become defective they were quickly discarded and replaced by another. so their emotions were kept very in check.

meddy's creator was a kind doctor that considered meddy like a daughter, and who couldn't help being attached to the navis he made. but he worked for that company so after they were done making navis, they were sent off to hospitals, so he and meddy never met again. but his hope was that meddy would meet someone that cared for her, just as he had, and that she could care for them too; that she could understand what he meant when he spoke of love.

this hc is a mix of anime/game verse cause in the anime we see meddy with a previous appearance

from when she was jasmine friend's navi (who i called Mei); so my hc is that she used to be a nurse navi at a hospital, but got assigned to mei as a personal nurse navi. and mei considered meddy a friend from the start, didn't treat her like a tool, and meddy inevitably came to care for her, and experienced loss for the first time when she died. she felt that without her, her purpose also died, because she couldn't bear going back to working at the hospital and caring for another patient and potentially watch them die; and the moment she refused, she'd be deleted, and another would take her place.

but then mei's mom gave her to jasmine, and in their mutual grief over the loss of their friend they decided to stick together; and jasmine encouraged meddy to find a new purpose, a dream of her own :'')

(oop i rambled, maybe someday i should revisit these ideas and brainstom again...)

on a lighter HC, i think she and searchman meet occasionally for cybercoffee when they are on break from their duties <3

6: favorite line from this character: it's been a while since i played bn5 or watched the anime so i can't remember KASKJD

7: one way in which I relate to this character: we both like to help people!

8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character: girl why you fighting with roll over a boy when you two could kiss,,, just saying

9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave?: i think she's neither xD

[makoredeyes]

Which of the fics is now the one you're proudest of? I know the ahamkara one was for a while. It's that still the case?

Yeah that one is definitely up there. I really enjoyed setting the groundwork for just about everything else with it, and writing all that combat was a BLAST. There was a lot going on with that fic.

Others tho are definitely the Isochronism fics as a whole, and AI-COM/SIDGOL324:MEM RCL{ERR.OR}//RCUR. (I think that I typed that nightmare of a title out again is testament to my dedication 😅🫠) both of which were definitely installments that required a lot of movement and attention to detail that I think I pulled off pretty well.

On the other hand already wishing I’d put more into the Ruin of Saturn because I think it has more potential BUT that fic was holding things up and I needed to just get past it and it still turned out pretty okay so I’ll take it. But maybe I’ll revisit that one someday for more. 💜
