for the artist ask game, may i ask 5, 8, and 10? -peyton

5- Do you practice other styles/have you tried other styles in the past?

Technically not really? My only different styles are in the shading n coloring stuff :P like having lineless, fully shaded, watercolor-like, etc.

8- What is your favourite piece that you have done?

I can't pick just one but here's my top 3 that I love the most:

10-What do you like most about your art?

Honestly the shading in general, especially when I give it a background and entire setting and it actually works well :D and when I actually pull off poses pretty well, AND WHEN I CAN ACTUALLY DRAW HANDS always super satisfying :)

[ihavenoconsistentname]

Answers from just me and Wels since the other 3 aren't really active atm sjfjhang

10. Favorite milkshake flavor?

🌺- Prooobbabllyyyy mint oreo but I also like strawberry when it has the strawberry bits in it :^

⚔- I don't have a particular favorite?

12. Favorite flowers?

⚔- Roses, they're just pretty.

19. Snow, rain, or sun?

🌺- Probably snow tbh but I also really like rain :D

⚔- Snow all the way. I have a few little memories from my childhood in my canon relating to snow 😋

that happens to me everytime i try to read shsjdhsh :0 i have not read a book in about 2 years sjsjsjsj (i suggest audiobooks btw! everytime i’ve had to read for class i look up an audio reading of it on youtube and listen to it while i annotate my book if annotation is necessary. it’s a lot easier to process and easier to go back when you lose your place) -vex🌟

I always love having physical books but sometimes my brain just doesn't wanna words then I have to have music on and it's like shgksj brain pLe Ase—

At least it's mainly with school work @.@ but even with books I like I have to go back because my brain makes me fast forward way too much or just doesnt process words gjksjgksj

[ihavenoconsistentname]

aww i’m sorry to hear that, i hope things get better for the both of you soon <33 /p i’m always here if either of you need me :3

things for me have been,,, not so good. depression has been getting much worse over the past few months but it’s all good, that’s just how it goes ig. i’ll be alright

i hope you guys are safe <3 /p

-vex

We're definitely trying @.@ Wels is feeling better today at least

But ty! We do appreciate it :) /g

And I hope things get better for you too! We're here as well if you ever need anything 💕 /p

[ihavenoconsistentname]

hi i feel like i haven’t talked to you in a while how’s it going? :D <3 /p

-vex

Hi! :D

It's uh,, it's going @.@ not particularly well for me and Wels but it's alright—I hope you're doing good though!! /g

[ihavenoconsistentname]

@autistic--cryptid I'd do this in an ask but it's a lot so I'm just gonna do it this way but I'm gonna ramble about sea shanties comparing Wels' recordings of them to the ones by The Longest Johns and ik you like sea shanties too so :000

Ok so these are the sea shanties that Wels sang:

Roll The Old Chariot

Haul Away Joe

Santiana

Spanish Ladies

Old Maui

Randy-Dandy-O

Fish In The Sea

The only ones The Longest Johns haven't sang are Fish In The Sea and Roll The Old Chariot, I only listen to Wels' version of Fish In The Sea and David Coffin's version of Roll The Old Chariot

But!! He changed some stuff with the melodies n stuff when he recorded them, mainly the ones he sang on stream but he already had Roll The Old Chariot on his soundcloud for a long time before he recorded new sea shanties and you can actually hear a bit of a difference in his voice vs the newer recordings, his voice was a bit softer/lighter and not quite as voluminous if that makes sense for voices

In Haul Away Joe the opening goes like "When-I was-just a little-lad or so me mammy told me" but in Wels' recording it's more like "When I-was a little lad, or so me mammy told me", his voice also jumps straight to the next notes more whereas in The Longest Johns' version the voices sort of flow into the higher notes from lower ones. Wels also does more high notes whereas The Longest Johns sort of flow between low to high to low and keep going. They also, in the chorus, go "Away! HO! Haul away, we'll haul away together" but Wels goes "A-way! [Pause] Haul away, we'll haul away together". The Longest Johns pronounce it as "Revolu-ti-on" (like revo-lu-shy-on) and "Constitu-ti-on" (like con-stitu-shy-on) whereas Wels says "Revo-lu-tion" going from high to low to high and "Constitu‐tion" going from high to low to high again but starting low at the first part

HE ALSO PRONOUNCES IT AS "BOW-LINE" INSTEAD OF "BOW-LIN" AND CHAT SCREAMED AT HIM THAT ITS BOWLIN NOT BOWLINE

At the end they drag out the "o" sound in "Joe" then raise their notes up like "JoooooooeeeeAH!" But Wels doesn't he just drags it out a bit and ends

Onto Santiana! The Longest Johns have their voices sort of dip a bit when you listen to it whereas Wels sort of has this ruffly effect to his voice. Wels goes "Well [pause] Heeeaavee her up, and away we'll go!" whereas The Longest Johns go "Well heeeaaavee her uuupp and awaaayyy we'll gooo!", similar to how Wels goes "Shes-a fast-clipper ship and-a bully-good crew" but The Longest Johns go "She's a faaassst clipper shiiippp and a bully good crew", The Longest Johns sort of drag the notes out more whereas Wels has a bit more of a defined rhythm to his singing. Also when it gets to "Santiana, now we mourn", The Longest Johns slow down and sort of stay slower (they also go slower paced than Wels does because they drag out notes), they also stop at "Along the plains of Mexico". Wels, on the other hand, Slows down that verse a bit before speeding back up gradually and repeating the "Well, heave her up and away we'll go" bit that's in the rest of the chorus before ending the song and dragging out notes at the end.

Spanish Ladies!

In the beginning, The Longest Johns drag it out more going "Faaaarree-well and adieu to-you Spanish ladies" whereas Wels drags out different words going "Farewell and adieuuuu to yoouuu Spanish ladiieeesss" and "Farewell and adieu to you ladiiess of Spaaaiiinnn" but The Longest Johns stops shorter at "Spain". Wels also says "Aaanndd we never may see you fair ladies again" but The Longest Johns says "But we hope very soon we shall see you again". The Longest Johns goes "We'll rant and we'll rooar like true British sailors" but Wels sort of goes "We'll rant and we'll roaaarr like truueee British sailooors" generally kind of dragging notes out more. He changes the rhythm quite a bit for this one along with words like changing "We hove our ship to, with the wind at southwest, boys/We hove our ship to, our soundings to see" to "We hove our ship tooo with the wind from southwest boys, we hove our ship to, for to strike soundings clear" and "We'll drink and be Merry and drown melancholy" to "We'll drink and be jolly and drown melancholy" so it actually rhymes

Old Maui!

Generally the vibe of Old Maui by The Longest Johns is very slow and almost sounds sort of tired and foggy like the vibe you get from a stormy looking sky out at sea and a foggy island being the only thing in view, but Wels is obviously more upbeat in his tone of voice. The Longest Johns has slower and more dragged out notes whereas Wels is faster paced and sounds more upbeat. His notes go much higher for the most part and has humming in the solo bits whereas The Longest Johns actually has a bit of an echo and the sound of the sea in the back, plus humming but also the voices join in slowly near the end of the solo bits.

This one is probably the one he sang the most different just because his overall tone and the rhythm pace was a lot different than that of The Longest Johns when it comes to the sound of it, but for lyrics, this isn't the most changed one.

And finally Randy-Dandy-O!!!

First of all its immediately a bit different, Wels goes "Noooow we are reaaadddy to saaaiilll for the hoorn" sort of lowering his notes between flipping back to high notes, whereas The Longest Johns starts at a high note and generally stay at it and go "Now we are ready to head for the horn"

Wels has a lot more flowing between notes with his recording and a LOT of words were changed in his version. This is the one that he changed the most lyrics-wise.

The original has some sort of thumping beat in the back, whereas Wels only has the vocals. The biggest differences are that he flows between notes and that he changes literally every verse almost in lyrics.

And that's it for my pointless analysis of Wels' sea shanty recordings vs The Longest Johns' recordings!! :D

i’m really sorry alex, rsd is really really horrible and it can absolutely ruin your mood and thinking for a while. im also sorry they continued to misgender you. i get the feeling of everything building up and bothering you more and more, and i really hope they’ll start recognizing your pronouns and your name, and your rsd as well. if there’s anything i can do, even if it’s just send asks or whatnot with your pronouns n name, or whatever you may need, i’m here -🌟

Yeah it's,, eugh. It's always something I come back to when I think about how much I hate people turning neurodivergency into some quirky shit especially with ADHD (I still don't know my actual neurotype but I just go with ADHD because I don't wanna sound confident in autism just based on the research—) because RSD makes it so hard to enjoy things with groups who have different personalities and stuff, it can be the absolute smallest stuff that people sound mad at you for and you just collapse

And as for the misgendering it's just frustrating—C8sun gave a very good little tangent when I joined that when people get my pronouns wrong he goes and tells them off for it (which is,, really nice of him—it's another thing that literally makes him like my dad but hell he even said he told off Etho for it) and I'm at least glad Kiwi and Angel were correcting people even though they didn't seem to register it apparently

I'm hoping people eventually just. Entirely get the hang of my pronouns, especially since I'm only giving them a pass to call me Bee and use they/them instead of calling me Alex and using he/xe because they knew me as Bee and I don't entirely expect them to be able to switch up super easily. I know it's not for their comfort it's for mine but I'm willing to budge with it.

But thank you, I honestly really appreciate it. /g

[ihavenoconsistentname]

welcome back!!!!!! :DD -pey

Hello!! :D

[ihavenoconsistentname]

[ihavenoconsistentname]

neopronouns are SO cool /g

-pey🌟

Hell yeah they are!!! >:D

[ihavenoconsistentname]

tw: yelling, cursing, anger (not directed at you tho)

“Coming from a friend of Jamie’s you need to stop talking about xem in your tweets lol”

“xe’s genuinely trying to clear things up rn”

literally all of this is fucking bullshit. you’re venting, you have every right to vent about your trauma on your own personal twitter and xe doesn’t like it xe can very well block you and move on. if xe is seriously trying to get better xe need to fucking accept what xe did to you and how it hurt you and included fucking respecting the fact that you’re venting. and then regardless of whether or not xe are clearing shit up xe needs to respect that you don’t owe xem shit!! xe traumatized you regardless of whether it was intentional or not!!! xe traumatized you regardless of whether xe regret it or not!! you don’t need to fucking forgive them and give up your venting outlet for xyr comfort!!!!!!

you are not the one who needs to make up with xem you are not the one who needs to fix xyr problems and regret. xe fucked up and xe needs to fucking accept that rather then expecting their fucking victim to make xem comfortable rather than be comfortable xemself.

you have every right to do what you’re doing right now and every right to still be upset. it doesn’t fucking matter how long ago it was or that xe is uncomfortable. you have every right to vent and every right to be upset and every right to not want to forgive them.

xe and xyr friend need to learn that this is not your responsibility. xe needs to fix xyr own fucking problem rather than forcing you to forgive them and stop being upset regardless of what xe did. -pey

I think this very much needs to be directed at the person who send those asks without xem knowing along with the additional message of do not speak on someone's behalf.

There are certainly things I acknowledge: people can change, xe never actively tried to harm me, and xe do acknowledge it wasn't the best. And in an ask I havent answered yet, xe did say xe didnt know xeir friend was sending those, so this is very much redirected at that friend.

It isn't your responsibility or business to go after someone on behalf of someone else.

I do have every right to be upset at things that happened, I do have every right to vent, and in all fairness, xe were venting before, too. Evens out.

Xe may not have downright traumatized me or anything and xe may not have MEANT to harm me in any way, but it happened anyway and I do have the right to not completely drop it, especially when you take into account the fact that I have had awful relationships so anything that adds onto any bad experiences I've had I can't 100% let go of.

And it isn't your business to go up to someone and try to make them apologize for venting about their experiences with your friend because their venting made your friend uncomfortable. Not your business, not your responsibility, not something you need to do or should do.

If xe accept xe did things that hurt me? There you go. But it doesn't mean I have to apologize for being hung up on it or for venting. People have the right to vent about experiences and they have the right to still be bothered by things that happened.

And hell, if xe wanted to vent about things relating to me? It's fair. If I was shitty to someone and they vented about it, they have the right to. Who gives a damn if it would make me uncomfortable, I should know damn well I caused them some sort of pain and discomfort that MADE them vent in the first place. They're allowed to, they have every right to.

Like unless what they say is just downright and absolute slander lying about every single detail of their vent? It isn't your business to tell them they're not allowed to vent.

And I'll reiterate: this is pretty much redirected to the person sending those asks. Because as you'll see in the next ask I answer: xe never told anyone to come say shit to me. That person spoke on xeir behalf when they weren't supposed to and didn't need to.

do you still want sword pics cause i’ve got a lot i hyperfixated on swords and daggers a while ago!! -vex
