[Image Description: A digital bust drawing at 3/4ths angle of Aiden from Minecraft: Story Mode. He has messy hair, freckles, piercings, heterochromia, eyeliner, and scars. The art is signed "Ky" and the background slightly imitates a playing card. /End ID]
GUESS WHO GOT THEIR DRAWING TABLET? THIS GUY! I am so beyond ecstatic to have it like may or may not have been bouncing around when I got it. She threw me a curveball but I'm getting a handle on her now and :> Am Very Happy. Anyway, you know I had to break it in with an Aiden drawing; my first like finished piece in a BIT 😭 but it's a special occasion

how long does it take you to draw your sketches/doodles? also do you have any tips to draw faster? 🙇♀️
I generally take 30 - 60 minutes a sketch,,,, but honestly really depends on how detailed it is.
Like a Chibi will be done in 20 - 25 minutes (Counting in the extra time I spend on minute details like a perfectionist 😭)
I for some reason really like spending egregious amounts of time on random objects too??? Unless it’s the in the background, I’ll spend 40 minutes refining it.
Random characters that are fully colored and rendered with take like 80 minutes.
The comics take usually take an hour or two per page. (If I decide to cross hatch it, my entire day will be gone with 4 pages… so I’ve been trying to find shortcuts. But not without sacrificing the quality for time lol)
I don’t think there’s any trick or magic to drawing faster. It’s really about weaponizing your artistic knowledge, and finding what’s comfortable or convenient for you!
There was a period of time where I would spend 11 or 12 hours on an illustration, and it wASS UGLYYYYY. (Some of these artworks are still available on my tumblr,,, but it’s SO LONG AGO, AND IT WAS MY 1ST OR 2ND YEAR GETTING INTO DIGITAL ART)
Overtime I learned what worked best for me, and practiced till I felt more comfortable with what I was drawing. Eventually I managed to shorten the time to 4 hours or less! Ambition was my biggest enemy but at the same time my biggest motivator. (And it still is LMFAO) 😭
EDIT (bit more to my way too long tangent): ALSO??? BRO DON’T BE AFRAID TO USE YOUR MESSY SKETCH AS LINEART OR DRAW ON TOP OF IT. I’VE DONE IT FOR YEARS NOW AND IT ADDS SUCH A GOOD EXTRA BIT OF TEXTURE,, AT THIS POINT I DON’T EVEN USE LINE-ART ANY MORE UNLESS IT’S A COMMISSION,, (IT’LL ADD LIKE AN 2-4 HOURS TO MY WORK)

FFXIV Write 2024 | #2: Horizon
Word Count: 775
Third Umbral Moon, 28th Sun
The boat left this morning, and we’re on it. It’s finally happening: we’re on our way to Tural.
Some of the sheer excitement that had churned in my stomach the day we met Wuk Lamat is beginning to return now that the day has arrived…which would be great if it didn’t manifest as a bit of seasickness. Been holding it together better than Mia, though: she’s planted herself on a chair in our cabin and is determinedly staring out the porthole at the horizon to try and keep herself from pitching up breakfast. It’s hard enough for her already, and the waters are calm and inviting right now; I dread to think what’ll happen when a storm approaches, which is practically a given with how long the voyage is. Poor baby.
She insists that we shouldn’t dampen our excitement on her behalf, though, that we should go and chat with our shipmates about our destination to see what we can learn - as if I haven’t spent a good part of the past several moons in the company of the Third Promise of Tuliyollal, hearing her excitedly explain to me the wonders of the nation she seeks to claim rule over. And I’ll not deny: Tural sounds incredible. Wondrous sights the likes of which Eorzea can only dream of, an incredible mixing pot of culture and peoples - if nothing else, I think this journey will be worth it just to confirm the wonders she speaks of, that’s certainly an adventure in itself.
And yet…
There’d been a hesitation in her whenever she spoke to us of her home, and till today I’d never been able to put my finger on what that was. The realization dawned on me and Lily as we spoke to the other passengers on the ship; some of them were merchants that spoke in awed respect of the Pelupelu’s shrewdness and aptitude for bargaining; someone else spoke of the Turali names for the races, such as Hhetsarro and Xbr’aal for what we call the Miqo’te and the Hrothgar. Then there was the one Mamool Ja merc who got two sentences into the “simple-minded brute” act before groaning about it becoming impractical, with how more people were visitng Tural and learning what they were actually like…
It occurred to me then: Wuk Lamat had spoken to us of how she grew up as a daughter of the Dawnservant, how well she got along (or didn’t) with her older brothers, and the various awesome feats her father had performed in uniting Tuliyollal under one banner. She spoke of things like her favorite foods or favorite sights of the capital, and she spoke of how much she loved the Tural her father built… but this was the first time Lily and I had heard of things like the Pelupelu or the Turali names, or how rich and varied the Mamool Ja are as a people despite whatever assumptions Eorzeans concocted about them. Things beyond the borders of the capital city.
“I don’t think she’s been hiding them from us or anything,” was Lily’s take. “I think she might not actually have seen as much of Tural as she feels she should have as the Third Promise.” She giggled and added, “It’s funny that she felt it was easier to cross the ocean to Eorzea and ask for help to explore her own homeland.”
It certainly is funny, but I think there’s a little more to it than that. It’s obvious Wuk Lamat doesn’t have a dishonest bone in her body; she’s bright-eyed, bushy-tailed, incredibly earnest, and very extremely naive. She’s excited to learn what her homeland has in store for her on her upcoming journey, but she’s also well aware of her own limitations and need for support from experienced adventurers like us. She put on a brave face when she first met, but as I look at her now standing upon the ship’s bow, grinning wildly at the distant horizon as she anxiously stretches her arms… she looks so young. I’m not certain she’s older than I was when I lost my parents.
But she’s determined to reach that horizon regardless. And, well, if there’s something I can do to support her in that endeavor, I can reach out and be the hand I needed in times like that.
…gods. I just told Lily this, and she gasped and looked at me, delighted, and whispered “El, you’re adopting her as your protege!” I immediately protested, but stopped mid-sentence because. Yeah. Yeah that’s definitely what I just wrote. Gods dammit. I’m getting older, but I’m not old enough to be a mentor, am I…?

Well those period sex tags on your post really got me thinking. Sukugo where Sukuna eats out the Gojussy like it’s Saltburn when he’s mensturating. Sukuna can smell it coming and he’s on his hands and knees immediately.
Anonymous asked:
That eating out the wife while she’s bleeding post of yours really gave me brain damage. I can’t stop thinking about a Sukugo version of that. Sukuna eating out the Gojussy on his period like a vampire boba surprise. Have you seen Saltburn? I want it to be just like that.
i have NOT watched saltburn but u are definitely making me intrigued 👀👀 i'll see if i get the chance to watch it !! (i tried to search for a clip of that scene, but i couldnt get it 😔) (though it was quite a short search fjghjdkf ill see later)
but still YES YESSSSSSSS sukuna eating gojo out while he's bleeding is EVERTYHING TO ME!!!!!
it's one of sukuna's favorite things, he's so so so weak for it, he loves it so much. he eats satoru like his life depends on it. licks and slurps and kisses all across his red-stained lips, takes his mouth to satoru's hole and completely loses himself in it, tongue lapping up all the blood, sucking all of it into his mouth and swallowing desperately. and he's just GONE. so so so gone. satoru tastes so good and sukuna delights in every single drop, every single twitch and gush of blood and every bit of his bleeding, absolutely delightful pussy
and what he also loves about it is that satoru is extra sensitive, he's extra twitchy, he's making so so many more sounds than usual, and god, he's so sweet below him, coming completely apart under his tongue. (sukuna is equally gone)
and sukuna doesn't relent, even as gojo's legs quake beneath him and he's humping sukuna's face, repeatedly coming against him, until sukuna's entire face is painted crimson, streaks of blood all across his cheeks and his hair and dripping down his chin, his mouth full and tongue stained with the taste of satoru's blood
