I, for whatever reason, apparently never posted this Abstract valentine??? I’d done this when I’d done the others, but when I was in the tag looking through all the art I’ve posted this year I couldn’t find him!

I don't think it fully clicked for me that the doll Sorawo sees in the family scene in Overnight on the Otherside scene is Toriko until I read the manga. It's a neat little addition to a scene that is already saying a lot about Sorawo's relationship to the concept of family.

This scene marks the climax of novel volume 4, and neatly ties together a lot of the traumatic past that her kidnapping by Runa's cult in volume 3 brought bubbling up to the surface. She's reconnected to a dissociative mindset of escape from the cult her dad and grandmother were involved with, she's recalling her final escape from that life in the form of the Red Person (whom she associates with her mom), and she nearly saw Toriko taken away by the Otherside followed immediately by Toriko's confession. Those events were at the forefront of every encounter with the Otherside in vol 4, to the point where Sorawo has to corner Kozakura to complain about it. All of that sets up Sorawo to get hit with a combo move of traumatic imagery in this scene.

The textual reading of it is that Otherside is trying to steal Sorawo away, which manifests through the vision of Sorawo's dad and grandma deciding to take the doll away. The reader's explicit understanding that Sorawo is projecting the Red Person/her mom's actions onto her dad and grandma (which hints *a lot* at how Sorawo might have overly rosy, distorted memories of her mom). This engages with fears that she's mostly conscious of—losing Toriko to the Otherside and reliving her family abuse. Fortunately Toriko saves the day, has her first kiss with Sorawo, and gets a Christmas morning engagement by knife. Everything's coming up Toriko!

EXCEPT Sorawo's narration while she's going crazy after this encounter hints at a symbolic reading of the scene. There's a fundamental incompatibility between how Sorawo conceptualizes family and life with Toriko. Family and accomplice are mutually exclusive to her. She prefers the latter (even telling Toriko as much), and treats the former as a hostile presence. Throughout volume 4, Toriko being very up front about wanting to be Sorawo's girlfriend, the first step in building a family relationship. To Sorawo, that insistence in wanting to be a girlfriend is choosing "family" over "accomplice". That plays on a more abstract fear, one that she can't wrap her head around or rationalize away. Sorawo watches this scene play out through a window of a home, the very symbol of family to her. She is outside the house—outside the definition of family—while Toriko is inside. Her fear is that her special relationship with Toriko will be pulled apart by the concept of family.

She has A LOT to process, except she's actively trying not to because that gives her the brain willies.

⁎˚ ఎ Rin Itoshi Agere ໒ ˚⁎

Since you allow blue lock I was thinking little Rin Itoshi hcs? I know you get a ton of agere reqs but I see no blue lock agere ever :( /nf take your time and thank you!!

•Rin’s regression likely stems from his deeply rooted emotional struggles, such as his constant internal pressure to be the best

•Quiet Regression: Rin is a very quiet little. He doesn’t verbalize much, preferring to communicate through gestures, nods, or short phrases. This mirrors his usual personality but in a much softer, less guarded way

•He’d have one specific plushie (maybe a wolf or tiger) that he clings to. It represents the strength he feels he lacks as a little and brings him comfort during moments of vulnerability

•In his regressed state, Rin loves to draw. His sketches are simple but expressive, often depicting soccer scenes, family, or abstract shapes that mirror his emotions

•Comfort Items : Oversized hoodies or soft blankets become his go-to. He loves to cocoon himself in them, creating a small "safe zone" where he feels protected from the pressures of the outside world

•Even as a little, soccer is a grounding activity. He might kick around a soft, squishy ball indoors or play small games with himself, finding joy in the simplicity of the sport rather than its competitive aspects

•Isagi would likely be a gentle and patient caretaker, encouraging Rin to take breaks from overexerting himself. He’d play small soccer games with him or join him in his quiet activities

•Bachira would bring out Rin’s more playful side. He’d encourage him to finger paint, play silly games, or just laugh at goofy antics. Rin might find Bachira overwhelming at times but secretly enjoys the attention

•If Sae were ever to find out, he’d probably be confused but surprisingly protective. He’d awkwardly try to connect with Rin by sharing quiet moments, like reading together or just sitting in comfortable silence

•Rin's agere triggers : mention of failure or loss, especially in the context of soccer and conflict, particularly arguments or raised voices, even if they don’t involve him

•Rin might try to hide his regression by retreating to quieter spaces (his room or the corner of the training facility). However, observant teammates might notice his softer demeanor

•Unlike other age regressors who may seek social comfort, Rin might initially avoid group interactions during regression. Over time, though, he could warm up to one or two trusted teammates

•Rin thrives on routine even as a little. If his regression happens during training periods, he might follow his usual schedules but at a slower, less intense pace

•Chigiri: Rin and Chigiri could bond over their quiet tendencies. Chigiri might introduce Rin to calming activities like braiding string bracelets or light stretching routines

•Kunigami: Rin would view Kunigami as a safe "big brother" figure, often gravitating toward him for silent reassurance

•Reo & Nagi: Reo would try to spoil Rin, offering him toys or snacks, while Nagi would be the perfect nap buddy !

If you're in the basic criteria , are DSMP fans, vivziep0p fans , h0tel/h3lluva b0ss fans, Owl h0use fans, St4r butterfly fans, Ghibli fans, ddlg/abdl blogs, nsfw/k!nk blogs, anti-agere blogs, or anti Christians/Christianity blogs : just dont interact !

what do your ocs look like! I would love to draw them :]

masterlist

AHEHDHA?? AA!! i’d love for you to draw them (/nf)!! i’m literally. so honored,, my little guys!!’ they take up like half of my brain at this point,, ough,,

i haven’t gotten around to drawing references or even solidifying their designs completely,, but i have their little inspo/ref boards!! any route you go with them is a-ok with me, since their appearances seem to exist in abstract concepts floating around my mind at the moment,,

Malpractice looks to be around his early to mid 30s, seems to have not gotten an ounce of sleep in 17 years minimum, and often wears a mix of doctor/medical garb of the 1930s, and casual clothes of the same time period. his body is rather grotesque, with some extra limbs that look like spider legs sprouting out one side of his back; and always seems to have soot covering him (upon closer inspection, it looks more like the plague/black plague esque). He is also 7’8! Why did i make him so tall! He haunts my dreams!

Amedea wears a lot of white and red, to compliment her light pink hair! she a medium-dark skintone, and is muscular (but not like bodybuilder level, more like regular gym-goer muscular). She’s pretty tall as is (6’4), so she often wears flats or kitten heels, but has been known to wear platforms sometimes (specifically platform sandals). She enjoys Jfashion and takes a lot of inspiration from it; she adores angelic pretty.

Zachary is just a Guy, he looks pretty average for a mid 80s small-town golden boy. He’s got a farmers tan, freckles, and hair has little blond streaks in it from being outside so much. He mows lawns in the spring/summer, and he’s kind of muscular. He’s 5’11, and has some scars here and there on his hands and neck (from victims trying to fight back, since those are the most accessible/least protected parts of him while in Fools Killer getup). In my mind, his jester get-up is more inspired by those little porcelain dolls/mardi gras kind of jesters rather than actual medieval ones. He sewed his own costume by the way, gotta love a crafty king.

hello, hello!! could we perhaps have some zooble angst if you wouldn’t mind?? /nf

Here it is!! omg im so sorry ab the wait but i hope you like it!!

•Abstract Art•

TW: Heavy angst, Abstracting, identity loss/low sense of identity, Swearing, Very intense identity issues/please read with caution

——————————————————

Zooble never knew exactly what they were.

They knew they were a circus member unwillingly, that they were doomed here indefinitely. They knew they didn’t like Caine’s adventures.

But they didn’t know how to be Zooble.

They stare at the full length mirror in their bright bedroom. Zooble stares back. The mirror in their room brought a cruel irony: they could barely recognize the mess of shapes simulating a reflection.

The flimsy and wavering sense of identity they had before was just that. The circus, this body didn’t help matters at all. It was like their memories, their life beforehand, was a sea of questions and inauthenticity. This body stripped away their last anchor.

They glanced at the box that became a permanent fixture in their room. The box of parts, chasing a high of finally finding something that fits. That feels fucking *okay* for once.

The only thing Zooble knew for certain about themselves, was that they knew absolutely nothing about themselves.

Their minds were so fragile here. Getting used to your new avatar and body took a long time, that was a given. But, most of the cast had gotten used to it. It wasn’t always a problem for them.

Zooble recalled when their digital body’s unwanted versatility sank in. They had been having the digital feast, everyone making mindless and meaningless small talk. Zooble shakily raised their arms. Then their legs. Then felt their antennae.

A dry, humorless chuckle came from them. Then another, raising in pitch. Then another, higher still. Before long, they were full on cackling.

Somehow, through a headset, into a game they had no say of being stuck in, with no memory of their names,

Their unstable identity managed to make it through.

Zooble stood now, still looking at the mirror. Charged silence hung in their room. Zooble shook slightly. Their fists, if they could be called that, clenched.

Then, they screamed.

Zooble screamed and screamed. Their rooms were soundproof, so no one would know.

Zooble shouted this time, and knocked everything down. Punching the mirror, ripping sheets off the bed, breaking their bedside table.

It wasn’t enough. Zooble needed to destroy everything. Everything that made up this lie. Zooble scanned the room in an angered and desperate haze, until something caught their eye.

That damned box.

Zooble flung it open. The endless mountain of parts and arms and legs greeted them.

They mocked Zooble, they were sure of it. A cruel joke. A solution, right here in front of them, that wouldn’t solve anything now matter how many times they tried it.

Zooble, breathing heavily, began flinging them out of the box. Part after part, shouting as they did so. Screaming.

Something good. Something had to work. Eventually. Eventually it would. Good. Something that fit. Something good. Something that didn’t make them scream. Something for Zooble. Who is zooble who is zooble who is ZOOBLE WHO IS-

Zooble barely stopped when the first eye appeared on them. Flicking around insanely fast with a neon pupil and sclera. Zooble shouted in pain, more eyes appearing.

Their room was covered in parts. It was never enough. It was never going to *be* enough. This was their fate.

Zooble was shocked to the ground again with another violent glitch. They fell back on the piles and piles of parts on their floor. The darkness spread up their body, around their neck. Up their torso.

Zooble let out another humorless laugh. They knew they weren’t too different from the abstractions, anyhow.

Maybe they’d like this form more.

———————————————————————-

WOOOO!! I hope this was good! If i need to add more trigger warnings please lmk :)))

My Babies (NF + LF) Headcannons

There's so much stuff I just... don't like too much about the LF, I think most everybody can agree with me, and since I'm back in my annual HTTYD phase, I'm developing my LF redesign further.

The grey version of the light Fury, that I'll be building off: (plus older redesign photos)

1. Invisibility/Skills

As shown in HTTYDTHW, LF has reflective scales when heated. This works with its own fire, but I like to think, also from the inside. Their body can consciously move internal bodily heat against their scales, so slowly able to become invisible within closed spaces. Also used to prolong reflectivity after using a plasma blast.

Plus, a nack for rock climbing, using their longer tail, as well as longer talons, allows them to scale up rocky walls.

2. Habitat/Camouflage

As shown in the hidden world, there are tide pools and large bodies of water. I like the idea the LF developed a grey top, to blend in with stone, and from any angle within the water, (like a killer whale.)

Also shown in my designs, their tail fins, are longer but thinner, with fins instead of spikes on the back, and this would be better for tight cramped spaces of a cave, and underwater manoeuvre. So semi-cave dweller, semi-aquatic.

3. Family/Pack roles

As shown in HTTYD Nine realms, Furies live in packs. There's obviously an order to that. I'm slightly taking inspiration from Lions, and comparing Toothless to the LF, Toothless is significantly bulkier. With this extra bulk, male LF are made to protect eggs and young. With white eggs, these furies often cover the eggs with their wings or bodies. While females, being less wide, allowing for tighter turning, are the hunters. Like a kingfisher, I think they may dive-bomb down into the water to quickly catch fish, being their main food-catching method, but with speed and agility, other larger prey can be caught.

I like to think with their destructive plasma blast, Males can often court females by carving out a hole in the rock walls or cliffs or claiming an already existing one. These home caves are often found by the water. Allowing for easy fishing, and allowing the kids to safely watch their mum while she hunts, to help them learn.

3. Courting

Being a thing Toothless didn't excel at, mating dances and other practices. intelligence and coordination seem to be the main two traits females look for.

I think mainly, having a good cave picked out, is something a female likes, showing intelligence. Also as shown in the Toothless sense where he dances with the LF after winning her over, swinging the tail, and spreading the wings are in the male's favour. Trotting, holding up the wings, and swishing the tail all at once, shows agility and coordination. The LF finally likes Toothless once he draws her, with the abstract show of intelligence, and so other things like that, solving puzzles, outsmarting other dragons in fights and such are other ways of showing off courting.

LSOH x TADC AU designs!!

Ye ye some designs for my lsoh x tadc au I talked about a while back lol :3 btw I won't spoil but tadc ep 3 was pretty good IMO!! I can't guarantee I'll get back into tadc since I feel like the main reason I did after ep 2 was for Ribbun mostly lol but hey who knows? Speaking of, I don't ship them in this AU personally but idgaf what y'all ship with them, preferably not Pomni n Caine tho since this is going by the 1986 version of the movie where Mr. Mushnik acts more like a dad to Seymour.

First up, we have Pomni as Seymour and Queenie as Audrey 2!! I like to think she starts to abstract as she is "dying" of starvation :]

Next up we have Gangle as Audrey and Jax as Orin because OH BOY are they toxic...also added the bow cuz I didn't wanna give Gangle hair but I wanted to give her..something..so ye

Next up we have Bubble, Sun and Moon as the Chiffon girls cuz...idk. My only real thought is Bubble, Sun and Moon are all paired together for the Animiz figure & they're all just talking objects so..yeah

Then we got Caine as Mr. Mushnik and Ragatha as the radio host person thingy that Seymour talks to! For Caine, I decided to take more inspo from Mr. Mushnik's design from the cartoon Little Shop just to differnate this from regular Caine as much. For Ragatha, idk I wanted to make her look like a typical 80s' girl lol

Last, but not least, we got Kaufmo as Arthur Denton!! :3

Also, I didn't feel like drawing them cuz they would play such minor roles but I think Gummigoo would be the first guy to come in and notice Audrey 2 and buy a dozen roses(or two dozen..? i cant remember lol) since that guy already talks a bit like an NPC lol. And then Zooble would be the nurse that just wants to get the hell out of there during the Arthur Denton scene lol.

But yeah, lmk what y'all think!! :3 /nf

[bunny-behind-a-keyboard]

hiii i hope you're doing well!! /gen

i just saw your post (it was from a few months ago) where you said that you're okay with asks about kin-related activities so i was wondering if you have any suggestions for angelkin/divinekin activities? (/nf)

if you don't have any ideas no worries!!!

-@aureatewings

hihi im SO sorry i dont know how i never saw this !! :0

im a demon lord myself so this is a little outside my realm, but ill do my best ! i feel like there must be some cross over anyway with divine kin :o

ANGEL/DIVINEKIN ACTIVITIES

🕊️ meditation! get in touch with the higher powers or simply allow the world to move around you. as a higher being, the constant stimulation of the human world can pull us in and distract us from our connection to the universe, the world, your deity, or even your own sense of self. allow yourself space to reflect and remember the scale of the universe and where you came from.

-> as an aside to this, cloud gazing can also be a good activity! it promotes the same kind of mindset, but if you are one who comes from the heavens or used to have wings, it can help to watch the sky above.

🕊️if you are a creature who is meant to help humans or command others, it may help to go into a leadership position. naturally we want to see our actions impact the world around us, and you can do this positively by engaging in your community, charities, or other groups around you like youth groups, churches, clubs, etc.! especially if you are an angel of a kind god, this may help you feel like your back in touch with your 'purpose' of aiding mortals.

🕊️ personally, i find it can help to get creative around more abstract/obscure kintypes to find ways to represent yourself. explore how you may express your sense of self - do you manifest as a wall of code, or a mixed media instillation with imagery and sound? are you a video? a sculpture? i find it fun to explore how the essence of my being feels when it is unable to be perfectly seen/experienced by the human mind.

thats all i can think of at the moment, but ill add onto this if i think of anything else! feel free to reblog with ur own ideas too ! ^^ apologies if this isnt quite what u wanted, i did my best coming from the perspective of a demon lord :>

had a therapy session yesterday and added more to this work in progress piece.

[lifenconcepts]

you do have oc’s yes. give the lore now. That is an order, mister /j /nf

BHSXHHDOBSOXBXBI HAVE TOO MANY

UHM

I GOT LIKE A MILLION ESSAYS OF LORE FOR MOST BUT HERE ARE THE INTRODUCTIONS:

For this show I wanted to write I have 3 main guys I love dearly, Lifen Heid who is the main dude and German- is secretly holding some kind of power and yet isn’t aware of it. This spirit guy Fhelix (quite OP but is so fed up with every being that he litterally does not use his powers at all except for his main goal) knows though and was set off on a journey to help him become a god like he once was but can’t say what he’s doing otherwise they would both die an agonising death. They got some chemistry and lore together plus I advanced the plot into a full blown book. Robin, a side character whom I love dearly, is a pathetic little kid who was forced to flee from his planet from false vigilante accusations and resides in the realm (this whole new world only accessible through a portal) with Fhelix, whole ordeal, and also some other people that also had the same fate, basically heroes turned sour and he got trapped into their little group (There’s this massive group and all got their individual relationship with one another and personality but in short they’re like 15-23 year old losers with some sort of dramatic past and incredible talents (lemme tell you about them..) ) So there’s Batrose - an emo shithead who is 99% a sadist and is a very good swordsman, and despite that, he is in a relationship with Florence, an absolute sweetheart who also is quite a dangerous individual. Basically that meme template where they both can absolutely kill you but one visibly has intention and the other is bubbly. Both dress somewhat goth. There’s also Dan, a daredevil cat hybrid who always looks for trouble and is a horrid influence on Robin but I still love him, not too much older then him. Westifer is this ginger kid the same age as Dan and yet is much more secluded than the rest and has an amulet passed down from generation to generation which allows him to practically bend water to his will, but he sort of struggles with it. He has a floating blob of water he can activate anytime and it’s somewhat sentient and has bubbles for eyes but mostly just helps him get to places sometimes as it’s body can act as a cushion. Also has a pet flamingo named fern. There are some other others but they’re not worthy enough of being saved in my mind.

one of my newest two is Neil Wolfman, he got a shitload of lore which I could copy and paste here in a second. Absolutely adore him but in short he’s a pathetic little soggy boy who has a car and out of paranoia spends most time out in the suburbs and owns an adorable German shepherd named Arc. also this mad scientist I haven’t bothered with making a name for that I do quite love and is my most attacked character for art fight!

also idk if it counts but just any variety of me whenever I draw myself, ranges from abstract concept to realistic depiction to absolute goofy doodle to entirely new creature or human.

I also realised like not lately that they almost all were some representation from me and I was incredibly surprised.

[faceeeeee]

Employee art idea or smh:

Employee abstragedy 👀 /nf

Like- abstracted....humans?

[professor-of-predators]

Idk if you take requests, but if yes: does thou have any Loui hc’s? Or NY if not? 👁️👁️ /nf

Oh hello

I can indeed take requests, though I haven't in some time. Luckily for you I have headcanons for both of these delightful beings!

Let's go alphabetically and start with Louisiana :)

The most normal name of the states, and therefor the one who receives the most mail. He spells his 'name' Louis, of course, because that is how the person he was 'named' for spelled it. It's still pronounced Loui don't fret.

A lover of Odd Museums. Like dinosaurs are very cool, and history is very Important, but Niche Museums are his joy.

Because of the state's reputation for magic and similar practices, most people assume Louis knows magic. So they tell him about their local magic or cryptic or the traditions immigrants brought along with them, or even just interesting myths or folklore they found on the internet. Now don't get him wrong, Louis is 100% capable of some magic, but he isn't really as into it as the stereotype would have you believe. Luckily(?) He likes the conversation too much to stop people most of the time.

Louisiana loves big gatherings. Louisiana loves showing people his state. Louisiana is constantly inviting states outside of his region to parties/meals/events/hang out. The South thinks this is very weird and constantly tries to dissuade him from the habit. Louisiana does not stop.

Now let's see what we have for The World's Grumpiest Bodega Cat, New York

He is alarmingly short for his population and area. He's just slightly below average human height, maybe 5'9", but he *feels* bigger. If asked him about it, he'd say it's because you're looking at him from the wrong angle before punching you to the ground.

He has a deep love of hiking, nature walks, and bird watching. It is not unusual to find New York on a path or trail, just soaking in fresh air, listening to a different sort of background noise.

THE most ecclectic music taste in the house. His Playlists are entirely unpredictable and totally random to anyone but him. Good news is he's great at making a playlist for abstract vibes. He and California make tons of them.

He is the author of so many petitions to give the Jets to New Jersey. So very many. He's also first in line for destroying MetLife stadium.
