Yes I am doing a fic based loosely off of Kiki's Delivery Service. I'm quite proud of this one :)

“MASTER, YOU HAVE TO GET UP!”

Nothing. 

“MASTER~”

A low grunt was heard from the pile of blankets on the single cot.

“MINGI, GET YOUR ASS UP!” 

“OW! OK OK FINE!”

You stood there with crossed arms and a victorious smirk on your face as a huge figure emerged from the blanket pile. A tall man sat up fully and stretched, yawning as he did so. The shirt he was wearing was a tad bit small on him so when he stretched, it rose up a bit, revealing a sliver of his stomach. His bleary eyes, still laced with a bit of sleep, looked around until they landed on your form. He motioned for you to come closer to him and you obeyed, knowing he couldn’t start the day without hugging his favorite cat. You stood in between his legs and wrapped your arms around his neck while he wrapped his arms around your waist and held you close to him. The warmth of his body caused you to emit a low purr of contentment and Mingi chuckled upon hearing the sound, knowing you were comfortable in this position. You pulled away slightly and swished your tail back and forth as you stared down at your owner. 

“Morning, master!”

“Morning, little one.”

That was Mingi’s nickname for you ever since he adopted you and made you his familiar. Mingi wasn’t a powerful witch, but he certainly wasn’t normal. Ever since he discovered his powers at a young age, he’s been trying out all sorts of new things. The last thing he had learned thus far was how to ride a broomstick. 

That was his main mode of transportation, especially if he had to do deliveries. 

Oh yeah.

Mingi was a delivery man.  

Ever since you and Mingi have stumbled upon this quaint little town right next to the ocean, you’ve been helping out this local bakery run by the Jung family. Their head baker was Wooyoung. At first, Mingi only did these deliveries for free when he first offered to help. However, more and more people demanded his services and Mingi was happy to oblige while Wooyoung couldn’t be happier knowing this little (big) wizard’s powers helped him raise his sales through the roof. 

“Come on! We have to go greet Mr. Wooyoung! He’s probably throwing a hissy fit right now!”

“Relax, little one. It’s still a bit early and Woo’s bakery doesn’t open until eight. It’s only 7:30.”

You pouted and Mingi chuckled as he ruffled your hair, occasionally scratching behind the black cat ears that sat atop your head. You leaned into his touch and Mingi kissed your forehead before retracting his hand, which you protested at. Mingi smiled fondly at you before motioning you to come along so you two could get ready for the day. 

“WHERE’S THE SOAP?!”

“IT’S RIGHT BEHIND YOU!”

“DO WE STILL HAVE CONDITIONER?!”

“NO?! I DON’T THINK SO! I’LL BUY SOME LATER!”

“WHERE’S MY RED BOW?!”

“LITERALLY ON YOUR HEAD, STUPID!”

After the chaotic morning routine, you two exited your little house and went straight through the back door of the bakery. The smell of freshly baked bread and other sweet pastries filled the air and you sniffed every single scent. Despite staying here for almost months now, you could never get tired of the aroma the bakery provides. As you shifted into your cat form and curled up on Mingi’s lap, Wooyoung came barging in with flour on his face, messy hair, and flour all over his clothes even though he had an apron on. 

“MINGI! GOOD MORNING!”

“Oi! Not so loud. I’m barely waking up.”

Wooyoung giggled mischieviously and knelt down to pet you. His hand, which was a bit veiny and looked good with the black and red nail polish he had on, gently patted the top of your head before moving his fingers so he could gently scratch behind your ears. You purred in content once more, causing the man to giggle quietly and bend down so he could kiss the top of your head. When he stood up straight, you sat on your hind legs and meowed in protest at the loss of touch. You waved your paws around, wanting to be petted again, but Wooyoung shook his head. 

“Sorry, cutie. I got to serve you guys breakfast. The hag here gets grumpy if he doesn’t eat.”

“Man, shut up.”

Even though Mingi was the actual witch, Wooyoung sure knew how to laugh like one. At least he didn’t cackle. That would’ve given Mingi the ick. Wooyoung always called Mingi a hag since a lot of witches were stereotyped to be old hags with wrinkly skin, gnarly fingernails on their bony fingers, grey hair, a hunched over form covered by a black cloack, snaggly teeth, and warts all over their face. However, Mingi was far from looking like a hag. Wooyoung just loved to tease him like that. 

“BREAKFAST IS SERVED!”

Mingi received a plate full of eggs, bacon, and pancakes with coffee and orange juice on the side while you received a bowl of milk. While you leapt down from Mingi’s lap and onto the floor so you could eat, Wooyoung sat across from Mingi and showed him today’s schedule. 

“I’m on it.”

Wooyoung grinned happily at Mingi’s confirmation and left the two of you to finish eating while he tended to the customers that preferred to physically go to the bakery to pick up their orders. Once you and Mingi were finished, Mingi used his powers to put the dishes in the sink, wash them, and stack them in the dishwasher before retrieving his broom, scooping you up in his arms, and bolting out the front door so he could get started on the deliveries. 

---------------------------------------------------

“This is only the morning batch and I’m already tuckered out! You would think I’d be used to this by now, but still!”

You giggled as Mingi laid down on the grass and caught his breath. You two found a grassy hillside to relax and decompress before moving on to the next batch of deliveries. You reached into the basket and pulled out the sandwiches that Wooyoung’s mom made before handing one to Mingi. Today’s sandwich consisted of almond butter and orange marmalade. As you bit into the sandwich, you squealed in delight by how amazing it tasted. Your tail swished back and forth in excitement while Mingi watched and grinned fondly at you, taking bites of his sandwich every now and then. 

“Um… excuse me. I hope you don’t mind, but… may I sit with you guys?”

Upon hearing an unfamiliar voice, you shifted back into a cat quickly and hid behind Mingi. Mingi looked up and his breath hitched when his eyes landed on the handsome man staring down at him nervously, occasionally fidgeting with the handlebars of his bike and adjusting his glasses. He wore a bright orange and white striped shirt and his light brown hair looked so fluffy and soft. Mingi wondered what it would feel like to run his fingers through that hair. He was so lost in his daydream that you had to nudge him to answer the poor boy’s question. He snapped out of his daze and nodded rapidly. 

“Yeah sure.”

Mingi scooted to the side a bit so the man could sit next to him. He thanked Mingi shyly and looked out into the distance. Despite you not being fond of strangers, you could tell this young boy wasn’t a threat. You took the extra sandwich out of the picnic basket and walked over to the young boy before plopping it down onto his lap. 

Along with yourself. 

“Gah! Y/N! Get off! He could be allergic!”

You hissed at Mingi quietly, indicating that you got this. You turned back to the boy and pawed at his chest, wanting attention from him. The young boy giggled and started petting you. You relaxed under his touch and Mingi watched in awe at how easy you warmed up to him. 

“Aww! She’s so cute! I’m assuming she’s yours?”

“Yeah. She is. But I’m sorry if she just dropped herself onto you without warning. I didn’t know if you were allergic or not.”

“It’s ok. You don’t see me breaking out in hives or coughing violently right?”

The boy’s teasing tone made Mingi relax, but his face was dusted with pink from embarrassment. If you were human, you would laugh at his expense. You climbed the boy’s body and perched yourself onto his shoulder, nuzzling his cheek before jumping off and landing right on Mingi’s shoulder. The witch grabbed you and kept you trapped in his arms before looking back up at the boy. 

“I’m Mingi by the way. I run a delivery service for Wooyoung’s bakery.”

The boy shyly took Mingi’s hand and shook it before retracting just as quickly. A smile was on his face and Mingi melted at the sight. Now he was thinking of ways to make the boy smile every day. 

“Nice to meet you. I’m Yunho.”

The two exchanged pleasantries and soon talked for a few hours before bidding goodbye. As Mingi mounted his broomstick, he gave Yunho one last look before flying off into the air so he could finish the last batch of deliveries. 

---------------------------------------------------

“I’m not going in there!”

“Yes you are!”

“No I’m not!”

“YES YOU ARE!”

“NO I’M NOT!” 

“YES YOU ARE!”

Patrons of a small restaurant looked towards the front entrance as you dragged your master inside. Long story short, Yunho asked out Mingi on a date, Mingi said yes, and on the actual date day, which was right now, Mingi decided to back out at the last minute due to his nerves. Feeling tired of his yearning and longing for the slightly taller boy, you downed a strength potion and dragged him to this place. You scouted the area and spotted Yunho looking out the view through the window before dragging the witch once more and plopping his heavy body onto the seat across from Yunho before quickly turning into a cat and running out the side door of the restaurant. 

“Hey! You made it!”

Mingi chuckled nervously as he straightened himself out, but grew stiff as Yunho grabbed his hands. He relaxed under the older boy’s touch and smiled dopily. On the other hand, you were watching from afar, making sure that this date doesn’t end in disaster. 

“Did I arrive late?”

“No no! You made it on time!”

Soon, the date proceeded. You watched with astonishment as Mingi impressed Yunho with his witchy powers and even pulled some small pranks on a few servers. They soon fell into conversation and they talked for hours on end until it was closing time. Yunho paid the bill and led Mingi out of the restaurant so the two could go on a romantic walk under the moonlight. You trailed behind so you could keep an eye on Mingi. You looked up to the sky and felt relieved when it wasn’t a full moon yet. 

During a full moon, Mingi’s powers went haywire. 

After the two stopped at the same hillside where they first met, they laid beside each other in a comfortable silence whilst staring up at the night sky filled with many shining stars. Yunho pointed out a few constellations here and there and Mingi told him the history about them, impressing the boy with his astrological knowledge. Yunho then pointed out a shooting star and begged Mingi to make a wish, to which the witch complied. After Mingi made his wish, he turned so he could tell Yunho to do the same. 

Only to end up kissing him since he was so close to him. 

Sparks of electricity shot out from Mingi’s fingertips and into the night sky, creating fireworks that held beautiful colors and made the sky appear brighter than before. You smiled as Yunho and Mingi shared their first kiss and decided to give them some privacy. You went back into town and shifted into human form before you looked up to admire the lit-up sky. 

‘Hopefully, Master doesn’t burn the grass since his palm is flat on the ground. Then again, he’s a witch experiencing love for the first time so yeah. I’m definitely going to tease him though when he gets home.’

As you made your way back home, you accidentally bumped into someone. Your face rammed into his chest and you fell back. You would’ve hit the ground if strong arms didn’t wrap around your waist. You felt something brush against you and you looked down to see a fluffy white tail swishing against your own. You then looked up to see two white cat ears sitting atop a head full of black hair. Finally, you looked down to see this hybrid’s face. 

If you had magic, electric sparks would definitely shoot out your fingertips as well. 

The man’s face was structured to perfection. Warm brown eyes filled with worry, a cute nose, lips that were pursed to match his worrisome eyes, and a sharp jawline. His eyes scrutinized you, seeing if you were hurt anywhere. You weren’t. But he still had to ask. 

“Are you ok, kitty?”

His voice was airy and warm, but his tone was filled with concern. You nodded slowly and he smiled in relief. That smile revealed a dimple he had and you found it endearing when his smile became so big that his eyes formed crescents. 

Just like your master’s. 

You then got a good look at the rest of his body. He was wearing a baggy white sweater  that showed off bits of his collarbone, blue jeans that fit his legs well, and brown work boots. When your hands were on his chest earlier, you knew that it was broad. As you pulled away, your hands accidentally trailed down towards his waist, which was slim. You took a good look at his shoulders and noticed that they were broad and wide. 

‘How was he a cat hybrid?!’

“I’M Y/N! PLEASED TO MEET YOU!”

You cringed at the way your voice sounded loud and way too eager. However, the hybrid didn’t seem to mind as he took your hand in his and firmly shook it. He then pulled you towards him again, smirking at the way you yelped in surprise. He caressed your cheek with his ring clad hand (he had on a singular gold band on his index finger) while he leaned in to kiss your other cheek. Usually, you would cringe at such affection (aside from your master and Wooyoung of course), but for some reason, you wanted him to keep doing that. As he pulled away, he smiled softly. 

“Nice to meet you, Y/N. I’m San.”

🥪 Introducing... Door2Door! 🥪

Door2Door stars twenty year old possum Gigi Dempster, who lives in a rather ramshackle, podunk town in Vermont called Bendersville. After sending numerous job applications all over town with no word back, she finally lands herself a delivery driver position at an unassuming locally-owned sandwich restaurant named Dine 'n Dash. With no prior experience in the art of crafting a mighty fine sandwich or running a delivery route, Gigi is strapped in to experience the whirlwind of a first time food service job firsthand, and in an unpredictable town like Bendersville, quite literally anything can happen.

(For more information on what Door2Door is— as well as a handful of progress images— please consider checking underneath the cut!)

At last, witness unveiling of my latest project I've spent the last month conceptualizing, Door2Door! What once came about as a silly idea of basing a project after an inner-city delivery driver inspired after a certain gameplay section in Spongebob Squarepants: Revenge of the Flying Dutchman, it has since blossomed into one of my dearest passion projects yet!

Though, before I get into any further detail behind Door2Door and its creation, I must stress— none of the above five images hail from a lost late nineties/early 2000s Cartoon Network show, and if by chance any of them were enough to fool you into thinking they were, then that just means I achieved what I set out for! 💙✨

Now, about a month ago, I'd been watching a retrospective on the critically un-acclaimed Spongebob Squarepants: Revenge of the Flying Dutchman, a game I had growing up. It's important for me to mention that I had seen and personally played the aforementioned gameplay section before, though for some reason seeing it again struck me with a brilliant project idea.

Anyone who's been following me for at least a year knows that I've designed a cavalcade of candied characters for my own arcade game concept, Rascal, and initially my idea for Door2Door— which I also called Project JJ (In reference to the sandwich chain Jimmy John's)— was to give it a plot simple enough to translate into an arcade game.

The idea was that you played as a plucky delivery driver who rides through the streets of a seedy city to deliver a food order to the... er, order-ee. But your progress would be impeded by a fiendish gang of mobster alley cats who are after your sandwiches, so there would have definitely been a large cartoony element to the gameplay loop.

I drew concept art for Door2Door's protagonist, then known as Marcy, though I really wasn't vibing with either drawing. For one, making the protagonist a cat seemed a bit overdone, and I already have a cat character who's name rhymes with Marcy, so that had to go. More so, I also couldn't settle on a good spriting style, which prompted me to rethink the whole project.

Well, there is a general aura of cartooniness to Door2Door, I thought, why not just embrace that vibe whole-heartedly and reshape the project into a long-lost late nineties cartoon?

I did like the idea of having an excuse to drawing more animation cels, though if I was going to make Door2Door into something resembling a cel-animated cartoon, I was prepared to go the full distance in nailing that aesthetic, in the form of how characters are designed and the way I go about drawing each screenshot.

For those unfamiliar with cel animation, essentially it can be described as a traditional form of animation and involves objects— usually characters— being hand-inked and painted on clear celluloid sheets and placed over painted backgrounds.

Above, I've provided a visual for what a standalone 'cel' from Door2Door would look like, coupled with a hand-painted background. When overlaid on top of one another...

... you would get this! This is exactly how cartoons were animated up until the era of digital inking and coloring... but that begs the question. How am I achieving a hand-drawn and painted aesthetic if everything I've shown so far has been drawn digitally?

I have my ways! It involves a lot of studying how individual cels of animation look, and taking note of recurring hallmarks; grainy textures, paint blemishes, drop shadows, etc. Above, I've assembled a small gif of my process in composing a screenshot for Door2Door, from lineart to final product!

So, that all should loosely explain it; Door2Door is what would happen if I were in charge of a late nineties Cartoon Network show, and what you've seen here is merely the beginning. Going forward, I will be posting art of Door2Door's main cast with some additional character information and concept art for each one, though for the time being, enjoy all five art pieces I've supplied for this post— they are perhaps the biggest works of mine yet this year! 💙🏳️‍⚧️✨

film updates reaching out to amc to do iwtv promo and amc turning them down… how the FUCK does a network continue to fumble opportunities this badly amc you have made an enemy out of me today

[lovely-v]

just finished my rewatch of steven universe (just the main series) and I'm so in tears I seriously believe this show deserves the same acclaim as avatar the last airbender. it started off as being an episodic series about fighting monsters and in the end all the monsters are saved. it has a reputation for being annoyingly pacifistic and sappy but it's really just about learning to love and forgive yourself and embrace your own flaws. It has an incredibly diverse cast of characters whose individual arcs deal with issues of abuse, insecurity, consent, grief, depression, and family trauma. one of the main protagonists is the physical manifestation of a loving lesbian relationship and she sings a song about the sheer power of said lesbian relationship while beating up a villain. it's just so incredible.

[deancasforcutie]

So I was watching the movie Gods and Monsters because queer media references you missed in Supernatural and uh

[spngirlpolls]

i say this with peace and love on planet earth: if you genuinely think supernatural or the acting on that show is sooo bad and the worst ever, you need to expand your horizons to the big beautiful world of Bad Media. it will heal your soul. there's so much worse out there, waiting for you. i say this with love.
