Hi tumblr user Zan0tix, I have to say that I love that you draw Jake as big and hairy AND fem. It's such a rare combination outside of mean-spirited caricatures, every time I see your Jake I get a big smile on my face. :)

Hi tumblr user HermitCyclop ^u^ here is a jake drawing for you 🫶

The transmisogynistic demonisation of these features is so maddening!!! I agree! Im glad that the intent (appreciating these features) of my jake design reaches you c:

GOING TO PUT IT UNDER THE CUT BECAUSE I HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY. But jake english gender meta because i think about it Too Much and am taking this as an excuse to infodump abt it. 😁

The alpha kids and their specific defiance of both homestucks gendered narrative AND real life societal expectations are so fun to think about to me!! but since we are talking about jake, his specific defiance of both homestucks models of masculinity and femininity in the context of his queerness is like the reason he is my fav character.

He props himself up that he wants to be the adventure "hero" in the homestuck sense (the hardheaded blue femme fatale) and the western media sense (the hardheaded action man) yet whenever pressed to actually act on what he says he always refuses or obfuscates. Because really what he wants is to just be himself! I really love the alpha kids because they all just want to be Themselves, not be restricted and defined by what is expected of them, (all the characters have this but the alphas particularly really hammer this home for me)

The heavy emphasis on their beta selves, the heteronormative archetypes they embodied and what went wrong in their lives that manifest as fears in their alpha selves... im always thinking about it. How differently society affects queer ppls choices in life and then the fact that they all get a second chance and getting to watch them live out that second chance and realize their queerness and them all caring so much abt eachother and wanting to aspire to be better FOR the ones they love!!!!!! it always tugs at my heart strings to ponder😢😢

IM SO GOOD AT GOING ON TANGENTS MY BAD but basically. The alpha kids explicit queerness and how despite the comic itself protesting, they are all shown to be deserving of love (of all kinds) And as a person who super heavily relates to jake, his experience with his own identity (and dirks unending adoration and love for him and likewise jakes belief and admiration of dirk) serves to me as a reminder that yknow! We are all worthy of love!! Even if we dont think ourselves to be (this is just the message of shrek.) and there is always hope to be found in things improving!!!!

But in a text thats explicitly queer and not shy about letting its queer characters do wrong in realistic ways i think this message is incredibly powerful and certainly one of the best things about the comic in my eyes. And i love embracing that in my art of the characters! Drawing queer (but here specifically trans) characters all getting to be proud of themselves and their appearances makes me feel proud of myself alongside them and I think its wonderful to be able appreciate other trans peoples experiences and looks through it too!!

I specifically in homestuck fandom dont really see anybody but twinks (usually dirk or eridan LMFAO) portrayed to be fem in any manner 😢 when jake is the most explicitly feminine man in the comic. (I think the transmisogyny thats kind of rampant in this fandom means people dont want to consider those outside conventional attractiveness being feminine or transfem identities outside binary transwomen if even that😭😭) I am being the change i wana see in the world 🙏 The amount of transfem fat gay bear jake in the world increases by one every time i post

[theyamjam]

So I heard you like Alvin and the chipmunks, care to share?

aagrhh yeah i like alvin and the chipmunks :o]]]

I LIKED IT FOR A WHILE OK. i grew up with the live action movies as a child which was a bigbig hyperfixation back then my dad put a bunch of nightcore songs on a cd and called it a chipmunk cd and gifted it to me for my 7th birthday

aboutt 1 or 2 years ago i got back into it and learned more about old chipmunk media. Ross Bagdasarian sr. made the original franchise which started out as just using a voice changer for some of his songs, n that gradually turned into inventing the chipmunks and making comics and puppet shows and stuff w them!! AND the famous Alvin Show which has this very simplistic and charming style that i like a lot! very very shaped (also THEODORE USED 2 BE TALLER THAN ALVIN BACK THEN.ISNT THAT ODD ALVIN WAS THE SMALLEST ONE)

then when ross bagdasarian died, his son Ross Bagdasarian JR. took over and he had to elevate whatever the original chipmunks were somehow. soo his first project was the tv special A Chipmunk Christmas!

BTW THE CONCEPT ART WAS DONE BY CHUCK JONES THE LOONEY TUNES GUY WHICH I THINK IS SO COOL & FITTING. this is probably my fav style the chipmunks have ever been in and i would really really like being able to make art as charming as this

BUT it wasnt until the 1983 Alvin and the Chipmunks show came out that the chipmunks reallly got their personality set in stone. in the original alvin show, alvin was the funny guy and the other 2 chipmunks were just kinda.. there. maybe simon had that thing a lot of smart characters had back then where they just use a bunch of intelligent sounding words? but outside of that he was pretty plain. same w poor theodore</3

POINT IS it wasnt until Alvin and the Chipmunks that simon turned into the sarcastic little prick and theodore was the sweet gullible little guy. ALSO THE CHIPETTES GOT INTRODUCED!!!! I LOVE THE CHIPETTES AUUGH i love that even though theyre designed to be counterparts to the guy characters and they share a lot of personality traits, they still have obviously different personalities from them. britney is a diva, jeanette- while smart- is very absentminded and distracted and eleanor is honestly a lot more ambitious/assertive in wanting to do good! also their designs are so so pretty!! kinda sucks that they get all the stylish outfits while the chipmunks have to wear their stupid little socks but whatever. both groups' designs are vv cool respectively

there were a few animated movies there was A Chipmunk Adventure which ofc everyone remembers fondly.. there was the time they met frankenstein's monster and became friends with him and there was a special where theodore became a werewolf??

there was the weird fever dream-ish movie from 2004 where they were all babies and puppets and even though they look very creepy the special was still pretty wholesome w cute messages! probably wouldve enjoyed it as a child

THEN came the live action movies and looking back at them they were a little unfaithful towards the rest of the franchise but i still liked it because i grew up with it !!!

annd then a little while later came the ALVINNN!!! And the Chipmunks tv show AND A LOT OF PEOPLE DONT LIKE IT BECAUSE ITS UGLY AND. I UNDERSTAND OK. IT DOESNT LOOK PLEASANT AT ALL BUT its still a lot of fun to watch because it has the same writers behind it as the 1980s show! i think some of the jokes are even better coz ross bagdasarian jr has known them for so long and u cna kinda see how hes made these characters his own :o] also some of his OWN children are voicing a few characters now which is also really cool!!!! coz previously to this it was only him and his wife who did the chipmunk voices.

IDK ITS JUST really cool to see these little guys and how they developed over time n how they interact with each other! i made a whoole bunch of fanart of it back in the day. this was also back when i was figuring out my gender so i threw a bunch of gender headcanons onto all of the chipmunks. simon is agender alvin is transmasc theodore is transfem canon because 17 yr old me said so. you agree

[hellonerf]

do u have any specific fav caname(or heta in general) art that has gotten stuck in your mind for a while??

hellooo anon i'm going to use this opportune to share various fanarts i really really love or got really attached to. some are stuff i saw when i was just frenzying into hetalia so it might be random attachment. other fanarts are anything under my fvorite tag here! anyways here via link form because repost ish complicated. in no particular order besides making it easier for me to count

i felt bad for how fat this list became so it's under the cut now have fun

harumachi in internet yamero by sama_8_sm ->😊has been my telegram bg for months now ever since i got into hetalia. i don't know why but it's like sooo like i saw it and it nudged me further into hetalia. could've been what convinced me. look they're so cuteeee

this thing by dekitakoto -> had to dig to find it cause they draw so much. but seriously. i used to just drop this image to my friends mid convo they'd be like hey man. i was rly obsessed w this artist's stuff getting into hetalia and they seriously drew so much so i could just keep digging thru it. love love love. while digging i felt compulsion to save more ames made by them. you might find some inspo from them in my artstyle (>.>) could be subconscious... i really like their style... mostly they drew a lot of rusame,ukus,amecan,engcan(all very directly typed here if u gaf about ship order lol) but yeah one of those artists that were really nudging my head in hetalia

like every drawing by this artist but specifically this one by waiting_tenmei -> nothing to say here. ugh. so good. caname hold. ugh.ugh. ugh. ugh. lots of really good rusames in their gallery too. notably i really like this one by them as well

this genderbend alfred by vanitys_lair -> putting this drawing because i just really love it and it filled my heart for girl ame so much i stare at it a lot. but also this artist's work in general is incredible. it seems they've logged out of that account all i hope is they're doing well. if you'd like to stroll thru their media tab, it's a lot of korpans and general east asia art if you're interested in that. their artstyle is so lovely and i really love their art

this caname by mandh_002 -> i'm literally so sad i'll probably never be able to read their caname doujin. i just have to put that here. i lived off of their caname for months sucked on it like thumb. i don't know. like i just look at them from time to time it's like enrichment. all of their caname could count actually. UGH.

i'm counting this as caname by cancallmecap -> i really like their artstyle. actually this is more that they're one of my fav heta artists rather than this in particular being a fav heta fanart(they have rly good harumachis) i'm just putting it here cz it changed my brain chemistry when i saw it

zombie apocalypse hokubei by 8take1uchi01 -> yet again a lot of this artist's work in general... brain stimulatingly fucked up. their zombie apocalypse au things just make me especially thrilled (^_^) it's really perfect... ame mouth covered... zombie... ugh. it's too good... i could put a bunch of their other works here too but i'll refrain. there's one comic where cana is scolding ame for sulking so he pulls at his arm only to find that it's chopped off

this ame by rinnma2019 -> i fell in love with this ame. i stared at her and she struck my heart with a bow. also another artist who i just reaaaally love the art style of! some harumachis by them i really like as well one(i fell in love with this ame too) two three

face? by kopeni27 -> uwaaa. uwaa. i wish i could read into this. againnn a lot of their works. very good. tense and ambient. they've also drawn this very lovely genderbend alfred which you can imagine how i feel about. uuuguuguhhhLOVEYOU I LOVE YOUUU AME okay they've also drawn gb england if you want to see that (^_^)

this ame by sabaku_0109 -> if i had a nickel for every ame red hands imagery i'd only have a few but it's interesting right. anyways their ame is so so very cute. if you're looking for a very cute amerus i'd recommend this artist. amazing artstyle. i'd also put a bunch of other ame drawings by them here... he is just so cute in their style i want to cry

this post is getting so long i'm so sorry. but i just need to share these okay here's a few more

ame birthday art by sweatland6260 -> 🤤🤤🤤wuauuaauuwaauaaaaaaaa wuauawu wuaaaa

this caname that will find you by callmefiance_ -> wait actually i also have to put this caname wedding drawing by them. nothing to say it's perfect it's what i've dreamed of. THIS WILL HAPPEN SOON i love my life so bad. very cute ames very good canames

caname ahoge swap by fantasie789 -> i've only. recently seen this artist. but i really like their style... they've deleted posts fast and one of them had a very cute caname i really love... i really love... they look so cute. i love swap things if that wasn't obvious yet

caname comic by tuno_cow -> so good just look at it. strange and caring and weird caring i love it i really love it it's like true caname it's the true heart's caname the caname you know. okay. love i love i love caname

england and ame rev war by neco_0211 -> so so good in a sickening way. i love it so much i thought about it a lot since i saw it

ame in truman show by x033o -> very touching in my heart. by concept alone you can understand... okay? amazing. amazingly!!!! amazing!! amazing! if i were more coherent i'd word it but it's okay you get the idea

edit ame and some jpus by ooonu3 -> OK i promised myself i wouldn't edit this post but i really really have to add this one okay. i fell in love with this ame i am madly in love with this ame. and all their other ames too. its the kind that true ame fuckers can feel with their heart and boner. i don't even know what to say i am just. i want to see this simple country girl eat something fresh in a hot summer day. i don't even know. i don't even know

edit edit FUCKKK the account is private rn but there was one gif of cana and ame over the homumado heads bumping gif that i cannot believe i forgot to put here am i fucking stupid. the artist is a030s and this gif changed my life okay that's it

and some artists i wouldn't put a specific piece as my fave(even though i was already doing that sorry. okay. just see)

aa_uioo has very good torment ame art if you like that. an especially squeezable ame. if you'd like to see him crying and uncomfortable a lot the expressions are drawn very well

kekkon_shiroya is now privated but i liked a lot of their drawings

lune_247 very cute hokubeis if you care. you do care. aw thank you

if you want very cute roshis look at gyouza_cheese such a lovely style. they've drawn ame a couple of times as well but they delete a lot of art after posting and those ames are included. but they're very good ames. very cute

okay i think that's all. actually it's not all but we'd be all day unfortunately! there is so much art i really like so. (>_<) and again if ur curious you can also just look at my fvorite tag. good art there. thank you and so sorry for this long ass answer bye

[iomoonofjuputer]

also i went on a mspfa binge this month sparked by flipjam and discovered one of my new top 2 fav mspfas alltime and that's SBURB.EXE. ill post about it later maybe.

i ALSO happened upon a new stinker that i hope youll allow me to stink upon: DIVINE INTERVENTION: COSMIC EXERTION. this comic is inactive but it has around 1k favs and is by a notable author (radical dude 42) so in the io mind its worth talking about.

its not SHIT or anything but i simply feel an aura of great disdain for the art of "having fun" and "getting silly with it" that i think is notable. this is in conjunction with a "troll horn guide" found on homestuck.net made by the same artist, which has rules like "these horns wouldnt grow like that biologically, so do not design characters like that." i feel like comic RADICAL DUDE also by rd42 wasnt so bad with this so like whats the deal.

basically in DI:CE (it spells dice) (which again is INCOMPLETE and DIED) gives the trolls within basically complete knowledge of how sburb is sposed to be run. the gimmick, it FEELS like, from the relatively! little in the comic there is, is that the session is run like a tight ship and theres none of this juvenile "FUCKING AROUND" these other worse comics have. it feels like theres such a Matter Of Fact, Straight To The Point tone that, esp with this guys place as someone who has commented multiple times n ways on the way other mspfas are run, feels like it is a little bit disdainful of common mspfa tropes.

!MAYBE THIS IS TOO UNFORGIVING OF A READ! !THE COMIC ISNT AND PROBABLY WONT BE DONE! the "gimmick" maybe was gonna be "actually, everything gets really fucked up and interesting due to a first guardian plays the game." maybe ive got the wrong lock on what rd42's goals were in writing di:ce so straightforwardly. who knows! but i rank this comic like pretty poorly alongside "redditstuck" and "crow strider au" for these reasons. also if u disagree i maybe would even like to hear your reasons we r all about conversation here at io moon of juputer dot tumblr dot gov slash tagged slash mspfa

[r95irth]

I had fun imagining this taking place in the Building a Home / Burning Roofs serie. Lan Xichen has a favorite rule on the wall, (and it's MY's fav too) - I think the last case is definitely the dynamic I'm aiming for 3Zun at the end of the home serie UU

Anyways if I keep this productivity, I might do the LWJ's rule strip. I might even *gasp* COLOR IT !

(Maybe...one day...in the future)

Also I want to draw some QingChengSang but I have absolutely no imagination for ships fan arts u-u°

Brain : so huh we shall draw them...kissing I guess?

me : ...there's 3 of them how to i...èè

Brain : fine maybe too complicated for a first try...Make them hug??

me : how, what position-

Brain : ...OH look I have an idea for a joke comic that will take 5x time the amount of effort compared to drawing your fav crackship hug :D

me : YAY! LEt'S DO IT!

[angelpuns]

Ranting anon is actually v interested in ur new au- so they are gonna make a lil list of questions-

Do any of the dudes have a specific thing abt their design that's special to them and like actually has a lil meaning

Does splinter particularly dislike anything about each of them

How often do you think they'd go out together

Do any of them have specially unhealthy and noticeable habits

Who's the quietest and loudest

Who spends the most time alone or with others

Who do u think is more willing to go out in public

Do any of them have a specific interest they can't seem to shake

Fav water brands (bc there is a difference! Nirvana and Aquafina SUCK!!!)

that's all for now :3 have a good day, drink some water, treat urself, don't forget to go outside every once in awhile <3 <3 (I am not rereading this so sorry for any mistakes, brain is still taking a vacation)

HOHOHOOO IM GLAD YOURE EXCITED CAUSE IM V V EXCITEDD

I'll go one by one for the first one ( they don't have super special meanings or anything, just things they like )

Leo ofc has his stars! He just really likes space and the star motif is super cute!! He also has his scarf, its just got all their colors on it - he sewed on the little bits himself.

Mikey likes to make bracelets and has a MASSIVE collection, so he's always wearing em.

DONNIE HAS A TOOLBELT!!! It holds all his stuffs!

Raph has his ripped pants - which he wears exclusively to spite Leo. Also has some dogtags that he found on the ground and decided he was gonna keep forever ( for funsies )

I think Splinter probably thinks that Leo is too...irresponsible? He expects a certain degree of responsibility that Leo doesn't really hit. He also is transphobic :)

For Mikey he definitely seems to blame him for things that aren't his fault. On the other hand, Mikey is also very messy, hates doing chores and Splinter can't stand that.

Same sort of thing for Donnie, but much less so. Excuses it away with compliments and stuff. He is the favorite child after all.

For Raph its like he doesn't even know he exists. He barely talks to Raph or really??? Worries about him?? He's just overlooked due to being the same age as Donnie ig

They go out together all the time! They usually end up arguing, but its always a lot of fun! Sometimes Raph n Donnie stay at home, but almost always its all four of em. Raph and Mikey also go out on their own ( separately ) a lot.

Uhhhhhhh I am actually gonna hold off on answering that cause I have a comic I wanna make about one of Leo's habits ( tee he its just one of my habits but anyway ).

Raph chews on his mask tails. Not really unhealthy but def noticeable. Mikey chews his nails like so so bad. I'll add more when I think of em :)

Quietist is Donnie for sure, Raph is the loudest. Mikey is the second loudest. Leo can be loud if he needs to.

Leo spends the most time alone, he doesn't really have much going on as far as a social life. Raph has a lot of friends and that's usually who he's hanging out when he's out.

Raph is the most likely to go out in public. Sometimes its to spite Leo and sometimes he just wants to go hang out in the city. Occasionally he'll drag Mikey out with him.

Leo has been into space since he was a kid and he hasn't been able to shake it since, Mikey n Raph ofc have their art. Donnie has his tech. The last three are more like just huge aspects of their personalities at this point. Mikey has been watching Project Runway nonstop for like 2 years ( Leo got him into it )

I don't know any water brands- Raph and Mikey are the only two that actually drink water and I think they drink a store brand? Leo drinks tap water :) Donnie is eternally dehydrated

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE QUESTIONS I AM HAVING A BALL!!!

I feel a LITTLE bad posting about them so much when Kid Leo isn't over but its my coping mechanism <3333

Enjoy my rambles haha

[an-au-blog]

One more ask about the East Blue Asylum AU! I saw you mentioned Germa 66 and that was something I thought about a lot as well! Whole Cake Island is my favorite arc, so please do talk about those Vinsmokes we all love and hate ^u^

Okay, well in my mind the Sora Warrior Of The Sea are fiction. They're like Batman or Superman but ig maybe more of a magical girl version of the power rangers???

I wanna say that WCI has to be one of my fav arcs as well I live it to bits! And that's one of the reasons I honestly don't know how to do it lol

I have a little post in my drafts about Zou but WCI I haven't really made up my mind. The two posts are kinda intertwined so I'll tey to post it right after this answer.

I did try to shower-think it and I came up with a few ideas but idk if I like them enough':)

At some point, Judge had started getting bad press for having a son he abandoned and is now in a mental hospital. He didn't know how the word got out, but it did and he decided that he'd get him out and treat him in some private place but it was very obvious that he didn't want to go and since he was a legal adult, he could decide for himself. (Even if he wanted to leave, the doctors were the only ones who could dismiss him after he signed himself in.)

About his brothers - They look a lot like the heroes from the Germa comics and act just as uptight and heartless as them. Subconsciously, Luffy must have mistaken them for "The Warriors Of The Sea". But in reality they're just brats who used to bully their brother - mean little kids who grew up to be even worse adults. Sanji's sister, however, I imagine has visited before, only this time she wasn't dressed like she was in hiding. The Vinsmoke family (in my head) is a bit like the Rockefellers - everyone knows who they are and it's hard to drop their name in a casual conversation and not get some kind of reaction.

In regards to his past - Sanji still got abused and beaten up by both his father and brothers. But instead of being a failed experiment, he was just a nice little boy who didn't like sports and competing in things, he just liked stereotypically girly things like butterflies flowers, cooking, and pretty things. His father didn't like that, as he believed that all his dons should be manly men who won chess tournaments, so soccer games, basketball matches or martial arts competitions. If they weren't the strongest, smartest, most handsome men in their circle, then they were no sons of his. And Sanji didn't meet that criteria. He didn't care for sports or competing, he just wanted to have fun and to have friends. Don't get me wrong, he was still smart. But wanting to be a cook is not exactly a good look if all of your family is just CEOs and multimillionaire company holders. Or at least in Judge's eyes. So when Sanji ran away at 12 (I'm making him older to make it more realistic), Judge just closed his eyes and reported him missing in the wrong region so he couldn't be found and so the investigation could declare him dead after the appropriate amount of years.

The golden bracelets were real, but they weren't exploding, Judge just used them to yank Sanji when he got mad at him and threaten him. "I'll cut them off till wherever they reach!" he'd say, so Sanji would wish to be skinnier so if they slip off, then maybe he wouldn't cut his hands off? That was his child logic at least. That's how his questionable relationship with food started, but later on he'd just starve himself to feel like he still has control over something in his life. Anything. That or as a punishment to himself, more than often he wouldn't believe he deserved food or he'd think that there are people with bigger needs than him. So he'd lose appetite and maybe feel sick enough to throw up. (Him having bulimia is one of the many reasons why hates himself and thinks he doesn't deserve food, because why eat if he'd just throw it up?(Zoro hates that he thinks that way btw and he tries feeding him every once in a while because he'd notice that Sanji could scarcely say no to him. Plus he likes taking care of him))

Yesssss u reblogged >:) 2, 6, 23 for artist asks? (You dont have to tag ppl if you dont want to but I’d love to hear about your inspo! i love your style<3)

2. who is your favorite character to draw?

this might come as a suprise but, King

i don’t draw him much but when I do I have a lot of fun drawing his skull. He has such a cool design

6. tag your favorite artists/inspirations

yay, finally an excuse to gather all of my favs in one place

oh man, theres so many but I will list the ones I feel influence me the most

hiromu arakawa (fma mangaka) she is not a mangaka, she is THE MANGAKA, my biggest inspiration of all time, i could gush for hours about her art

dana terrace (the owl house creator) the way she draws characters look so alive, when i feel artistically overwhelmed I go to her insta and just browse and idk, it helps me. How she draws clothes slays me. How is she so good???

alejandro barbucci’s work on the w.i.t.c.h comic (he worked on the firsts issues) his work inspired me back when i was a little kid and I feel it left an impact on what I consider aesthetically pleasing even now

sachinteng (twitter. illustrator) i have a goal to fill my wall with posters of all of her illustrations once I get enough money and proper setup. they are the definition of cool

makanidotdot (tumblr. comic artist) so often i go back and awe at the body language in her comics. I started following her when she drew avatar fancomics but now i just follow because she really is that inspiring

jorgejimenezart (twitter. comic artist) started following him this year but i go to his page a lot, love the way he draws the human body and perspective

michaelramsted (twitter. horror artist) i don’t draw horror,but man I enjoy it a lot. i feel that the ability to convey a story powerful enough to create emotions on the viewer with just one illustration is next level greatness. and this artist always nails it

23. draw your fav as a vampire

idk if this meant fav as in fav to draw, or fav character but im going with the girl herself

(feat vampire-hunter!Hunter)

[bogglle]

what’re some of your fave Ishimondo AUs? Or what you like to read in Ishimondo fanfics?

ohhhh thats such a good question anon!! i love AUs so much, they can be so unique, and usually when i've shipped something long enough I just have like, a million of em sitting around, but for some reason i havent made that many with ishimondo??! i need to work on that XD anyway here's some great AUs I've seen!

I really like @edgy-senju 's mastermind ishimondo drawings!! I've seen lots of mastermind AUs and the aesthetics are always super cool, and especially in this case!! they just look so good ahhh

another artist I really like with some cool AUs is @mickules have a really good pinned post with all their stuff I'll also link it here, so do yourself a favor and look at everything there!!! They are seriously so inspiring with their comics!! and there's some cute AUs in there for u to take a look at :D

Another AU im always a fan of is werewolf mondo and vampire ishimaru, its always fun to have their natural rivalry even more pronounced in a monster au!! I've seen some really cute fics and art for this concept. I remember seeing it a lot back when I was first shipping ishimondo in like 2013-14, and I really liked how @treeofficial did it

https://treeofficial.tumblr.com/tagged/werepire au/chrono

they also had a really cute android ishimaru AU they wrote a few fics for that I remember liking.

for ur second question, probably my favorite thing to read in a fic is ishimaru being super socially awkward!! if it makes me cringe in second hand embarrassment then its absolutely perfect!! some fics i really like with this concept are @dracothedeatheatingcupcake-ao3 's problem series (https://archiveofourown.org/series/2517916) but a specific fic I like of there's that has Ishimaru being a socially awkward cutie is this one:

another fic that I will just love forever is One Personal Favour by @chasml

I literally reread it all the time (and its LONG!) because it's just SO good. it's basically the main reason I even started drawing ishimondo again XD It's got all my fav things! I feel like if you ship ishimondo it should be legally required that you read this fic (jk but no seriously)

anyway I could probably go on all day but I'll leave it there!!

thank you for the ask!! I hope u a have a good day!!

[adanaac]

Could I ask about your OC's? Specifically Ophicucus and Tsuru, I love how majestic Ophi is drawn and Tsuru fascinates me both with the concept and also how lovely you have illustrated him.

I hope you are well, and thank you again for helping me with my questions o7.

Sincerely HMAD.

oh good i get to talk about my son!!

my blorbo my beloved my babygirl he means everything to me

i made him in 2017 so hes sort of grown up with me (or i've grown up and realised things about him that i couldn't have when i was younger. i have so many complicated feelings abt this that i made a short comic about it last year)

to preface this im not a great writer dont expect good writing from me lol all i have is my personal experience and stealing tropes from stories i like

(got a lot to say so its all going under the cut. also a lot of death mention)

So. who is this dude

Tsuru (not his real name in-story, i havent come up with one im happy with), 18 years old, a ghost

he has a little sister, Ori, 15, who was meant to be my sona but then i just drew him more and like drawing him more anyway

first 2 drawings i ever did of him. he was based off natori natsume yuujinchou at this point, i dont remember why or if i even liked natori that much, but i remember distinctly hes based off him

u may have noticed he sort of looks older in my older art. this is because first of all art style drift lol but also as ive gotten older ive figured out that 18 isnt actually that old.

theres also a black haired version of him (two actually) its basically something like this ⬇️

important to know that everything about this dude is a convoluted metaphor

i lovingly summarize white tsuru as "people pleaser" and black tsuru as "nihilist prick" in my head and those are the things consistent throughout all the AU versions of him

(important differences only to me) alive tsuru doesnt act like black tsuru at all thats just his warped self perception (he also doesnt act exactly like white tsuru either)

also alive tsuru has black eyes and the shortest hair, black tsuru has blue eyes and slightly longer hair (also white tsuru is slightly taller than both of them)

if they all existed at the same time they would hate each other on sight but fortunately (unfortunately?) he is just 1 dude with issues

the general vibe is white tsuru is the "yippee floaty trickster" brand of ghost and black tsuru is the sort of ghost in horror media that stands just outside your field of view in the darkness dripping with blood

for the longest time only white haired tsuru was a "character", "black haired tsuru" existed just as his corpse at most, a footnote

but over the past 2 years ive figured that hes actually really fun to draw and play with, and in a different way than white tsuru

(wait fuck isnt this just abe trio. i do always almost accidentally draw tsuru when im trying to draw haruaki.... fuck.....)

(ive had tsuru for long enough that i just keep tacking details from my fav characters onto him.....)

halls smp

so ive been on this minecraft roleplay server called halls smp with other artists for the past 2 years, theres a new season of it every few months with a different theme each time to keep things fresh and ive just been making AU versions of tsuru for it so ive had a lot of opportunity to think about him

season 1 - halloween - jiangshi tsuru

this one is almost entirely unchanged from his base characterization because i didnt want to rp too much and also didnt know there would be future seasons at this point (also basically after the first day i gave up on being called "tsuru" bc its too hard to pronounce and everyone called me canada anyway)

same basic story, guy dies and theres now a white haired version of him (actually this is the same for all the AUs). in fact im pretty sure the black haired version of this one is exactly base alivetsuru. basically what ive been interested in exploring is different kinds of death, the events leading up to it, and what kind of person he becomes afterwards (but also in equal amounts im interested in making fun designs and playing minecraft and fucking around)

(this feels like the start of the beginners guide...)

i associate him with doves and at the time, tarot card 18: the moon, but in retrospect i now think he's card 0: the fool.

season 2 - winter - ishmael

guy who died at sea and eaten by a interdimensional whale and got isekaied. loosely conceptually based off moby dick, although i havent actually read it LOL but i did spend a week reading up on drowning and hypothermia

strangely, his death didnt create a white haired version of him, perhaps because he didnt have anything in life to give up his identity and replace it with. (and also remember the hair color doesnt actually mean dead/alive)

im only calling him ishmael now in retrospect, at the time he was just tsuru/canada

while designing him i had the biggest crisis bc i didnt want him to look to much like this old old oc i had (pic 1) but then i sucked it up and went with it anyway

i never got around to drawing it but his fingers are black from frostbite thats why he wears gloves all the time.

hes one of my favorite iterations of tsuru he looks so mad or upset all the time it makes me want to tease him, and also i think the grey skin and eyebags are very cute

i associate him with whales and tarot card 18: the moon

season 3 - golden grove - fox tsuru

honestly i think this is my favorite design of him i kinda popped off. i think im just a lot more comfortable working with warm colors. and also i associate white tsuru with foxes anyway (black tsuru is totally a catboy btw) (why is he not associated with cranes if his name is tsuru you ask?? bc cranes are hard to draw next question. he did start out based off cranes tbf, thats where the white hair and the tallness comes from)

dead fox possessing his dead human friend's body (although thats only the most literal interpretation of events; in all these iterations there's only ever been 1 person) the white tsurus are mostly interested in "moving on", whatever that means to each of them

btw my banner on this blog is him

hes sort of a set with s2 tsuru to me, mostly bc theyre the ideals that "white tsuru" and "black tsuru" hold taken to the extremes, and also theyre on opposite ends of the "hates people hates talking" and "loves to talk and mess with people" scale

anyway. hes tarot card 10: wheel of fortune to me

season 4 - wild west - mirage

the desert dragon, mirage. this is the season i started giving them actual names that arent "tsuru" and putting actual thought into the story lol previously it was just vibes-based character design. i have a short thing written about him thats meant to be the script for a comic, but i never got around to drawing it.

a sandworm-esque dragon that got tired of being a dragon and took up a passing witch's offer to give him a human form. this is all a metaphor i think. he has longer hair bc i wanted to spice things up a little

(also i consider this a form of death bc he left behind a giant sandworm/dragon skeleton somewhere in the desert)

the mirage-dragon thing comes from the shen 蜃 (which is used in the chinese word for mirage, 海市蜃楼 haishi shenlou, literally translating to "ocean city and shen's castle"). it's a clam-like dragon that produces foam that creates mirages over the ocean.

if u read "even if you slit my mouth", this is what the "shinkiro" or "shin" in recent chapters is. (i had one of those "smug because i already know all about the mythological creature a story is referencing" moments, which i also had with the four gods in yohaji bc i used to translate a game that mentioned them too)

isnt it romantic in a way? that the two places mirages are most known for happening are the ocean and the desert.

i dont have too much art of him because around this time i was uhhh (checks calendar) got back into yohaji and got consumed by it for a couple months lol (can u even blame me. it was july to september that was when like chapter 91 came out lol)

an earlier version of his design that i didnt end up using but i still really like this art

hes tarot card 9: the hermit to me

season 5 - fairytales/medieval - ophiuchus

NO FUCKING WAY YOURE NEVER GOING TO BELIEVE THIS for this one i actually ironed out what kind of people the black haired and white haired versions of him are. and also specifically this one isnt black tsuru but alive tsuru

i have a short poem thing about him, to summarize its like so many other fairytales about grateful animals granting their saviors something, but it doesnt end well for anyone

hes based off ophiuchus and asclepius of course, but also a lot of other snake stories in general, like the lindwurm and baishezhuan

to reiterate, for none of these stories do i consider there to ever actually have been 2 separate people, its always just 1 fucked up guy

i also sort of consider him to be a set with mirage, for both being serpents, and also for being "black tsuru whose personality is like white tsuru" and "white tsuru whose personality is like black tsuru", thereby codifying for myself that to him, someone who's stuck in his own head a lot, what matters most to him is his ideals, what all his actions are in pursuit of

he's tarot card 12: the hanged man to me

bonus: dnd character - alba

i also have a version of him i play for dnd, named alba to match with my party who all have color themed names. a halfling ranger who's very small and very loud. except he has amnesia and cant remember anything from before he was 12 (hes around 18 now according to him), including that he's actually a changeling who just transformed into a halfling to seem older than he is to work at a bar and nearly died in a bar fight.

(if you spend as much time fretting over semantics as me, you may note that changelings are medium sized and cannot transform into halflings which are small sized, for which my explanation is that he's been in halfling form since he was a kid, and after the amnesia he thought he actually was a halfling. this is also why his hair is white btw bc changelings have white hair. pre-amnesia in his "actual" halfling transformation he had black hair. i care too much about semantics but hey isnt dnd the semantics game anyway?)

anyway congrats alba for being the only version of tsuru that hasn't outright "died"!! if only because dnd has actual rules and i can't pull my usual death-ghost nonsense as easily!!!

hes very ship of theseus to me, all versions of him are. what makes up a person? what defines them? is it their face, their appearance, their name? their personality, their memories, their ideals? if you slowly replace each of those, one at a time, with a copy thats very similar to the original, at what point are you a different person?

as thanks for reading all of this i'll reveal what some of the metaphors are, the core of who tsuru, as a character, is to me. maybe this is fairly obvious, but all the death and personality weirdness stuff is a convoluted metaphor for depression and autism, as well as the experience of reading the things you've written years ago, seeing old photos and others talking about who you were years ago and finding that person wholly unfamiliar, that you understand the thought process of that person no more than you would a stranger's, as a result of having taken apart your identity and replaced it piece by piece with things from people you like more than yourself.

im always scared of scrutinizing tsuru too hard because he's just a weird reflection of myself, and i think i'll only be able to write a version of him thats more of a "whole person" once i figure that out for myself. the only way you see your own reflection is through a mirror after all, a flattened 2D surface.

haha this got kinda weird and depressing and personal at the end (mostly bc ive been writing this in the middle of the night, its now 4am)

after seeing my soul laid bare like this, if theres one takeaway, i think its pretty obvious why i'm so enamored by the parts of yohaji that i talk about often (huh wasnt this a post about my oc why did it become about yohaji)

oh yeah i just realised u probably also wanted to hear more about my yohaji version of tsuru specifically. honestly theres not really more to it i just like drawing him in situations. like of course the same themes apply but i just like drawing this dude thats 90% the reason hes my sona. like heres a pokemon au of him i drew recently bc i wanted to draw them as kids and also as pokemon gijinkas

anyway thats all. not really bc i could go on and on about him but this is way too long and also way too personal at this point. i think about him a disproportionate amount, i only have 2 other ocs i remotely care about and the extent of my thoughts for those guys is "i think hes fun 👍"

this has probably also been like, the 3rd most comprehensive description of tsuru that ive made, 1st being the thoughts in my head and 2nd being the past 5 years worth of DMs with my friend who i talk about tsuru with

(why was this sort of structured like the beginners guide. if youve seen the beginners guide tell me if im right or delusional. if u havent, go watch a playthrough of it, have an existential crisis, and then afterwards tell me)

Been taking a break from Beast Wars to read MTMTE. As someone who reads more manga than American comics on my phone, this was sorta difficult to get into or keep up with but I can't say that I'm not having a blast (thank u reddit for your kind guidance until i accidentally ignored one portion but I'll get to that).

I have new favs thanks to this!! Loving Nautica so far. She's so cute! The pacing of the sassy dialogue is peak comedy. It's a fun series!

Many Thoughts and spoilers below.

It is so tremendously helpful that I already had a good amount of knowledge of the multiple transformers shows and interest in Megop that would diverge me into learning about other characters I'd love aside from the more popular characters that touch the mainstream media (actually I found out Rachet had a partner and I think that's one of the couples that pushed me towards attempting to touch the comics again).

Cyberverse especially. Not required to watch but it was helpful pointing out more characters that i wouldnt have known beforehand. Beast Wars was great cause I already knew who Ratrap was. Not that you needed to, but it was kinda nice to have that knowledge under my belt when introduced to him midway. Like I didn't need to learn to like the character, I already liked him and seeing him not in his original element was cool.

My god. Rant time (not harsh but i had some...difficulties....).

These comics are hard to get into (personally). It's just insane how far back the history goes, and what they reference and what you potentially needed to read for context (luckily they do state the issues where you can read what they're talking about but I'd rather not stop midway).

Also the amount of gorgeous detail and characters to keep track of. Comics like this are NOT meant to be read on a phone. That's a no shit but given I can't easily buy copies/can't ask for the library to get them I don't have a choice.

I realized this when I found out I bought Dark Cybertron back when this series was still in print. And...my god...okay so Dark Cybertron Vol 1 was what i mistakingly chose to try and get into comics back in high school. Finally had money. Windblade looked cool and it seemed that Dark Cybertron was her intro. So I picked it up. Horribly confused. Didn't know why the art styles changed and couldn't for the life of me recognize a chunk of the characters. Only to realize years later finally reading MTMTE did I understand I was I the middle of a god. Damn. Story. Not only in the middle of a story. But two stories. And needed to read the one shot of the Death of Optimus Prime. This was so much lost info I shelved that book for years until I finally got to it.

I was incredibly happy I had that book because it was a wonderful reading experience. To read the comic on printed pages and comprehend every panel whether it had a large amount of dialogue or not. Really I'm understanding why they actually had different art styles for different groups and got to say, I really appreciate it. Not only was it helpful to pinpoint where to go back on if I needed to, but a better grasp of different sections of the story. I remember seeing complaints about it but after reading the dang thing I understand what they were going for.

The bliss of reading Dark Cybertron ends when I didn't pick up that the issues alternated....after finishing volume 1...I didn't have the second book (I wish I did if I knew there were only two books...)

I went back to MTMTE. Confused who the fuck Nautica and Chromia were...kept reading....what happened to the giant Titan battle??? MEGATRON LEGS WHERE?? WHAT DID HE DO TO SAVE THE PLANET? until the end NOT REALIZING I COULD HAVE JUST FOUND VOLUME 2 OF DARK CYBERTRON ONLINE OR Realized to even alternate between RID and MTMTE.

Of course I did go back and skim through the chapters realizing what I had missed and the sweet bonding between Megs and Bumblebee. But...boy howdy did that slightly ruin the story for me all because I didn't realize the comics alternated due to the fact I was reading a volume that put the story together in one book....

Anyways. I'm enjoying the comics now. It can be a little dense at times, however the character interactions and dynamics really make it for me. Chromedome and Rewind wow yeah that one I was trying to the through so hard after Rewind died I found out he somehow lived and wanted to get to it, not expecting the reason why...which...wow.

Minimus and Megatron, that's been a lot of fun!

It is wild what these comics have these characters do and the absurd amount of depth every single one of them already have. It's not something I'm used to. Again, I don't usually read American comics. It's kind of like that one mcdonalds drivethrough meme but as an entire comic series. That's probably a lot of comics series but that's...that's the feeling right now...

[sunnymimis]

Happy birthday @cybzilla! 🐧 Your recent art of The Penguin has been so fun to see and I love your design for him so I thought I’d add to the fun! He was so fun to draw; I especially love all the purple you incorporated into his palette! 🎩🌂

[mars-onthe-moon]

hey what our some fandoms you're in but haven't made art of yet recently?

Literally all of them XD

I love so many things but then only end up drawing GF. It’s like the Midas touch, but worse.

I just started the Netflix Bee and Puppy cat! It’s amazing! I rewatched the YouTube series for the millionth time and then started the Netflix, and I’m really liking it.

I also started watching The Arcane. I love the art and the story, wouldn’t say I’m in the fandom, but I appreciate the show.

I guess I’ll just make a list of fandoms I’m in or stalk from time to time.

Cartoons:

Gravity Falls

The Owl House

Bee and Puppy Cat

Adventure time (need to start distant lands)

Over The Garden Wall (mandatory watch in the fall)

Bob’s Burgs

Rick and Morty

Cuphead and Mugman (video game and cartoon… I have like, too many of the pops, love the art to death)

Steven universe (need to start Future, or else my OCD will never let me rest in peace)

Avatar the last Airbender (I watch the whole series like every two yrs, need to finish Legends of K tho)

Helluva Boss (I keep an eye on ‘Hazbin’, I think there is like a legit show in the works, but Helluva is actually great and I would die for most of the characters unlike ‘Hotel.’)

There’s a butt ton more I know I’m missing. I think it’s safe to say cartoons are my fav media so I’ve probably watched most of them or plan on it.

Anime:

I’m such an anime slacker, so like I’ve probably heard of it, but it’s because it’s on my watch list and I’ve never gotten around to it… so here are my comfort animes.

Anything Hayao Miyazaki or studio G

Soul eater

Mob Psycho 100

Tokyo Ghoul

Ouran Host club

Kill la Kill

Kakegurui

Other:

The Arcana - A dating sim video game which I love waaaaaaay too much (I own the art book and tarot cards, btw totally worth it). It has a lot of great representation! …. And my husband Lucio… Who is totally not evil and hot and the reason I question my sanity and sexuality.

MadK - which is a very dark BL manga… obvi NSFW, but it’s amazing. The art is beautiful and the plot is fr interesting and I need the third book like now, because I gotta know how this is gonna end.

The Banquet - a web comic (tho u can get hard copies and exclusive nfsw art books through Patreon). It’s gay and cute and about demons and we stan.

Nightvale - Yo. I tried to do the podcasts in like middle school. They were fun but like, too many, I never finished. But the books are fire so I really like them, they have the same feel, mention OG characters, but have plot and stuff. - In that same vibe….

Alice isn’t dead. It’s another book by Joseph Fink and has that surreal nightvale vibe, but toned down a little, also mc is a lesbian so, finger snaps. (Now that im looking at his books he has a lot more so brb while I spend money I don’t have.)

Undertale will always be in my heart, and I need to play delta rune chpt 2.

So yeah! Thats the stuff im into atm, or have been within the past few yrs. Some more then others, but mostly everything here is what I try to stay up to date on. I also always have the ghosts of superwholockian and bronies past looming over me… but we all have our demons. And if I ever vanish, know that they got to me and I’m rewatching all of Doctor Who because I stopped at the 12th doctor and there’s like a fourteenth one now? And I does’s have to know.
