#my past self did it anyway

Hello! Thank you for sending me all that Gaara art. I LOVE the realistic art pieces of him :) What I was wondering...Do you have an OC you ship (either platonic or romantically)? Do you have a character profile for them??

I'm glad it was enjoyable and not just pure annoyance lol

That style of art helps me imagine him being real

To answer the first question: Yes

My hardcore Gaara x OC ship that my brain refuses to let die after all these years is Harley Greene (Western name due to my unusual headcanons regarding geography, among other things)

It wasn't even meant to be a ship at first. I just wanted to give him a childhood friend and let adorable baby Gaara be happy even if it was just for a season. But uh... here we are.

I made a silly profile and headcanon list several years ago; basically a bunch of random passing thoughts and other interests at the time that collided and became a hyperfixation lol

And my two main fics that are old and probably much worse than I remember but I'm afraid to check:

Where I Want To Be

Hidden Sand Shadows

Thanks for the ask! I haven't gotten to talk about this OC in a long time haha

[ID in ALT] I've made posts before about Talia/Dick co-parenting Damian moments (will never happen but let me dream) and this came to me in a vision. Took me ages to finish for some reason 😭 and then even longer to post

[ cw: assumed death / assumed sibling death / assumed child death / solitude ]

Thinking about Leo being trapped in the Prison Dimension and keeping himself warm through the power of his own ninpo - this ability is shown to us as a flame, after all, so imagine if, when he lets his mystic energy run through him, it warms him up, just a little.

In this desolate place, all cold and alone, he focuses on that flame and leans into its warmth.

He relies on it, and he realizes it that he’d relied on it too much when it goes out, and he’s once again cold.

(In another dimension, the Hamatos believe they lost one of their own.)

Ye olde cat boys....

(I'm working on a bigger piece rn, so I colored this sketch in the meantime :DD)

I realized this is basically a more realized version of a sketch from really early boy king days:

A huge thank you to everyone who read the LEPrecon comic adaption!

The Leprecon short story from Artemis Fowl Files is one of my favourites and I really enjoyed adapting it into a comic. This is also the first long comic I've ever made and when I posted the first page on Valentine's day in 2023, I wasn't really sure if I'd be able to draw the whole story or how long it would be. And when I had sketches for all 76 pages it really was really daunting.

But then some really nice people (you all, looking at you <3) liked and reblogged the comic and even left some really nice comments (that might have made me cry few times) ranging from liking the character designs to "Turnball's smug face haunts me" to "wait, are you making the entire comic??" and it really kept me going.

So thank you!! From the bottom of my heart thank you for reading the silly little comic adaptation and looking at the silly little drawings I made!! Thank you for the likes, the reblogs and comments!! <3 <3

(and thank you for listening to my ramblings <3 <3 <3)

something re: the Gideon -> Kiriona evolution that is perhaps not the most important (esp on the scale of other things) but that i keep feeling fairly fixated on is that Gideon hated the Lyctor Aesthetic (”like Silas Oktakisseron threw up in the glitter drawer”) and she is so valid for that but now she’s dressed like “the military wing of disco”. and on a personal level i think her new look is incredibly sexy BUT i cannot help but fixate on how this is now the third outfit she has worn that is not really something she would have chosen for herself (cavalier skull paint, harrow’s body, military disco). and she only gets three outfits in the whole series anyway!! 

something something abt being butch and How We Dress being so related to Who We Are, and having that choice taken away is always some sort of thing. something something abt body autonomy and how she continues to have none despite her proclamations otherwise. she says ”nobody locks me up anywhere” but Kiriona Gaia is arguably locked up everywhere she goes, on account of her body having the fun feature of being able to be turned off by someone else. Gideon started her escape attempts at age four. four!!!!! something something abt how the one thing she has always fought for is her own freedom, and everything she has done and everything she has been through since then has only served to render her more and more under others’ control. on the Ninth she had an ankle cuff and at Canaan House she had the cavalier’s sword and as a prince the leash and collar is her own dead body, which is once again (as always) dressed by someone else.

People like Bill Jr. got all kinds of things wrong about Scully but probably none moreso than thinking it was tragic that Mulder was dragging her along on some descent into madness, when actually the real tragedy was how few of the people she loved ever realized it wasn't a descent.

(It couldn't be bc 1. it's not madness and 2. she was already there.)

procrastination is starting to have its consequences finally

(today on things I wish I could tell my younger self)

Honestly, write that self-indulgent fanfic. Draw that self-indulgent art. Even if it’s cringe or done bad. You don’t have to post it. But if you feel compelled to make it, then make it.

Not me putting off trying my wheel again bc im afraid that even on a 'good day' I might not be able to treadle. Hah. :/

Edit: OK either im not on a good day or else my good days are now hell, so I guess I will be avoiding the wheel out of sheer emotional self preservation

[datastate]

i keep finding reminders of how i used to act/type a few years ago and i shrivel up. and die.
