Me: “Well I don’t have an SSR Azul and this one DOES duo with Jamil. I guess I can spend one of the keys I got just to see if I get him.”

WHAT THE FUCK???? ON the first AND ONLY PULL I WAS GONNA DO FOR THIS BANNER? What THE FUCK I DIDNT EXPECT TO GET MY MANS AT ALL OKAY OKAY HELL YEAH!!!! PLEASE LET THIS LUCK EXTEND TO IDIA AND MALLEUS I WANT THEM ALLLLLL.

The secret is just having my sibling sing to my pulls.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Thank you everyone for being so kind and supportive and actually liking my weird little corner on the internet featuring my Twisted Wonderland yapping and hyperfixiations. I have been more creative this year than I have in a LONG time. Seriously, alone I WROTE more in the past 2-3 months than I have I. The past 2-3 years and I forgot how much I enjoy it. Art has been a healing process for me since I chronically feel I suck at it but I do enjoy it and I have been enjoying making fanart. It’s crazy how both fanart and fanfiction has been helping immensely with my creative output but I guess for years I was trapped by the toxic mindset that original art and writing would make me “greater” of an artist/writer. Which I knew was a lie but I didn’t want to be judged by those around me…I let my confidence slip because of fear of indulging in what I like but not anymore. I’m cringe and I’m a free bitch baby 😎

One thing I learned this year is that…fuck it. Do what makes you happy. Even if other people think it’s cringe or childish or even “easier”…like dude I should have realized how my creativity has always peaked in fandom and that’s not a bad thing. It’s my roots. My most creative ideas and stories come from fandom and there’s nothing fucking wrong with that. It’s been so good for me to fully dive into storytelling again. To feel honest passion for my own creations. To look forward to sharing these with others who are just as excited! Im thankful for everyone who follows me!! Even just your presence gives me reason to draw, write, and share my bullshit. 🥹🩵

Plans for the New Year

Finish Valley of the Dolls and try to draw a cover for it.

Finish the final chapter of Sniffles

Continue expanding Jamil Viper: The Vampire Slayer

Share more about the LeoJami Detective AU (I might make it like an episodic series?)

Introduce two new OC’s Malachi (twst of Nuka from Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride) and Sylvan (twst of the Haunted Forest from Snow White)

Update my intro post!

Finish and upload stupid doodles and chibis hanging out in my procreate

Interact more with people and tell them how much I love their work instead of being shy and geeking out to my sibling. (it’s okay they got me into TWST in the first place)

Housewarden | Vices | OB!Squad bonding adventures.

Generally enjoy what I do and not be so hard on myself because I’m here to have fun and geek out with amazing people 🥹

Uh here’s one of those random doodles I was talking about since I have nothing new to show. Malidia in onesies that I drew during the N2 Squad onesie era. Autism creatures Sebek and Rook (aka Le Yippie) just there lmao…I made a whole series of “Le Yippie” it’s just crack tbh I’ll share it someday when I’m feeling goofy 🙃

Multiculturalism: It's Good for the Soul

Multiculturalism: It’s Good for the Soul

Okay, I’ve got to admit that I’m no expert on “multiculturalism”. In fact, I looked it up just a few minutes ago to make sure I was writing about it. I’m still not completely sure but, since not knowing what I’m talking about is one of my trademarks, I’m going to press on ahead.

I would also like to point out that I am talking about myself in this post. Whether I’m talking about you is…

EXIST OUT OF SPITE

FUCK IT WE BALL

[moon-mage]

Hehehehehhe

I got two key sets today because oh my gawd me and Silver are BIRTHDAY TWINS 👯

On my second try tho…

BEHHEBEJEJWGGGW HE IS SO PURE AND SWEET I CANT BELIEVE I SHARE A BIRTHDAY WITH A DISNEY PRINCESS 😭💚🖤🩶 LOOK AT THE BOY!!! The softest.

Alright I screeched enough this morning. I was just looking very much forward to this and I’m happy I got what I wanted, when I wanted it, for once in my existence.

Happy Birthday to the seepy princess and uh me I guess.

[moon-mage]

Been tired and still trying to balance work and fun without draining myself so sorry for the lack or activity.

I AM cooking for Halloween tho. Not sure how far I’m gonna go but I have the concept of a creepy psychological horror with a changeling-like (dnd kind of ) character with twisted themes of beauty, dolls, identity and possession and all that fucked up weird stuff starring Vil and Jamil. Because that’s something I always wanted to write and I’m gonna try. And because JamiVil is so underrated I need to try to show y’all the amount of potential this ship has.

I actually write it. I did start I am still obsessed with it soooooo LETS HOPE I DO THIS!!!

Other than that sorry for tweaking so much about the new Halloween Event. It’s just so gooood. And I’ve been trying to pull for Vampire Vil and lol I give up. I gotta let it go.

Have a nice day 😊

[moon-mage]

So like. After chapter 7 is Silver gonna just take the last name Vanrouge and he will officially be Silver Vanrouge? Since everyone will likely by then know his papa is Lilia? And then everything official from then on will have “Silver Vanrouge” for Silver?

And then I will proceed to cry hysterically and roll into a lil honey bun?

Please 🙏🏽 🥺

Okay so this reminds me that me and my sibling have verbally came up with a fanfic where Rook has been a double agent this whole time and is now trying to kidnap all the overblots.

Let me tell you…Rook Hunt knows WAAAAY TOO MUCH. Every single idea we had as to how the gang would face against this man or getting the upper hand was immediately thwarted because he would be like 100 steps ahead of the game. Most of the story was Rook just “I already did that 30 minutes ago” or “I knew that. That’s why-”

It was hilarious as hell and we used up so much brain power for it. We spent like HOURS making up this story together and like the only people who got any sort of upper hand was Azul for like 7 minutes tops and Idia for like 46 minutes (they then realized Rook has very pettily used his signature spell on him).

Making Rook the antagonist is WORK when he is the plot hole duct tape.

My favorite thing in twisted wonderland fanfic is when the author can’t explain how a character got information without creating a plot hole, so they just blame it on Rook

Like they’ll be like “How did [character] know that reader broke their foot? Rook told him.”

It’s genuinely so funny pls don’t stop

HERES THE RESULTS

I feel like ima lack because my headcanons are basically just me drawing them in my crummy ever changing inconsistent style. But oh well LETS GO!!

Also to note, my sibling will be my co-signer on these because they introduced me to TWST and we share headcanons anyway. They put me onto Appletart and I put them onto Number 2 Squad. We just geek around it about this series together. The next con we decided to go as Malleus (me) and Lilia (them).

Anyways~ I’ll be catching up and first up is Pomefiore because I love them. They’re basically done just tweaking some stuff.

[moon-mage]

I haven’t been to a cookout since I was a kid and I hated going to them because I’m socially awkward AND I was always forced. Now as an adult it’s kind of freeing accepting entirely that I’m socially awkward because I don’t feel bad about sitting here in my own little world and just vibing and not expecting myself to be social.

Don’t get it twisted, I’d very much rather be in the AC playing Zenless Zone Zero or drawing gay shit. I’m bored as fuck. I’m only here because my mom and grandma asked me politely. Look at me. Being a good daughter. Lol.

[moon-mage]

i need to start reminded myself this so maybe ill actually post some writing

[moon-mage]

I’m thankful for you @boopshoops , who can articulate this so damn well and send true words of positivity while not belittling everyone’s fears and worries. I’ve been beyond rock bottom for months and so I expected nothing new from this election so my sour mood has been constant.

My sour mood isn’t going to stop me from living my truest life and being myself. I’m going to keep moving forward and spreading my sincerest love and passion to the world the only ways I know how. By creativity through my art and writing…and by treating every one of my patients with the kindness and respect they deserve no matter what. Even though I feel a lot dimmer than ever…I will continue to shine ✨

Heya!

Things are lookin rough right now, huh? But here are a few reminders:

Your blorbo will still be here tomorrow.

You have people who love and care and support you.

Policies and enactments will not all be immediate. Everything will not go to shit all at once.

Things getting harder doesnt mean they're impossible.

It's okay to be upset. It's okay to be scared. It's okay to cry. That does not make you weak.

I know there are some individuals like me who did not feel safe voting due to outside factors, like living with individuals who support trump or being disabled, do not blame yourself. (Excuse me for getting personal, yes I do want to move out. Very badly. Sadly my mental and physical health are not in a space to do so yet).

This is the last term he is allowed in office. After that, I can't help but think about how the more extremist supporters- would they even want to vote? Idk. But it's food for thought. Safe to say the voter turnout for either side was insane compared to previous years, if we keep that stride up, I honestly think and hope the democrats are almost guaranteed the next election. But this is just me blabbing.

Block tags you aren't in the mindset for seeing rn. It's okay, no one is going to villainize you when the election process is giving you a panic attack. If they try, ignore them. This is for you, not them.

We've survived through one term. We can survive through another. I know it feels difficult right now while thinking about things like access to healthcare or prices skyrocketing or job security, but we really have. Things will get better. We will push through.

Here are some ideas that might help with mental health right now:

Eat some of your favorite food

Look up pictures of your favorite animal

Watch some funny or wholesome videos

Go for a walk

Exist. Because sometimes that is enough

Positive affirmations

Schedule an appointment with your therapist if you have one

Drink water. Or dont! Maybe drink a different thing that you like.

Remind yourself that these feelings will pass.

They cannot steal your identity from you. Internally, you know who you are. Even if you're still figuring it out. They can't take your mind. Your thoughts.

To those like me dealing with finals right now. Its okay. Take that break.

I love u /p

I used to be on DeviantArt at the golden age of artistic engagement and community. My circle was mostly the original characters art circle and I remember how we all would engage with each other, gush about each others art, writing, concepts and how amazing it felt to be around others who actually inspired and engaged with one another on their characters and projects. As much as I enjoyed creating art for myself, having others giving their nice comments and such was a huge motivator and I felt I created art more from the heart verses “will anyone like this shit?”.

I feel the importance and power of engagement has been truly lost in all of the art community. But I feel that’s because of how artists have to utilize platforms catered to surface level engagement like Instagram and twitter because there are really no platforms dedicated to sharing and engaging art. Those that claim they do have mostly taken the social media approach anyway and thus is lackluster and just as fickle and surface level. DeviantArt being my prime example of that.

I am going to be more mindful of my engagement with artists and writers because I understand the importance of engagement and how encouraging it is. I feel over the past few years I’ve been jaded because I’ve ran into artists that I enjoy and try to engage with only to end up with them being consumed by their own selfish need for validation and stepping on anyone to get it. Thats not what I ever want to be so I simply left that scene.

I came to tumblr because I know people here are more fandom focused and I just wanted to share my dumb art and ideas with people that actually are interested. I am SO happy I did. I am so happy the TWST community are amazingly talented and kind people who are just here to scream about these weirdo magical boys.

TL;DR: I WILL TRY TO ENGAGE MOAR AND TELL ARTISTS I EAT THEIR ART AND WRITING AS MY NUTRITIONAL SUBSTANCE AND I NEED MOAR OF IT OR I WILL PERISH

STOP putting your thoughts in an LRT post, STOP only talking about it w your friends in discord, STOP keeping your compliments to yourself! artists and writers want you to SHARE your nice comments, bc that is what motivates them to make MORE! DON'T YOU WANT MORE
