Habby Birf-tay Dr. Habit!

(there would've been a drawing or a little writing snippet or smthn, but I couldn't focus for the absolute LIFE of me yesterday & today, so that's probably just gonna come later)

Mm. It's probably a bad sign if my body won't let me be productive until I drink a Cherry Cola.

i’ve gotta admit, i was skeptical when picking up Death in the Spires since it’s not quite Charles’ usual fare, but that’ll teach me to doubt the queen !! holy SHIT i am having a full on implosion in the bar right now

[larz-barz]

i’ve unlocked a new obsession

muicat:3

[what-when-why]

STOP VISITING ME YOU FAT FUCK

[grif-hawaiian-rolls]

The urge to make and share more oc content bc i think they deserve the attention and validation vs trying to actually talk about them and explain them enough in a way that makes other people interested in them when there are canon characters that you can just throw out to the masses

Fight fight fight fight

browsing my 2016 tumblr dash from long before I joined and resisting the urge to like mutuals' 0 notes posts so as to not terrorize them with visions of the past

They're staring at each other

"why did you get into neko atsume?" aphmau.

"why did you get into mystic messenger?" aphmau.

"why did you get into okage shadow king?" aphmau.

"what was part of the reason you got into kingdom hearts?" aphmau.

"why are you trying to get into final fantasy?" aphmau.

conclusion: aphmau somehow led to me getting a bunch of different obsessions lol

Clip Studio is on Sale

so is the upgrade price is you already own version 2 and want to upgrade to v3 :D

(so, potential hack with upgrading? If you get the upgrade with GOLD it charges you in yen and the exchange rate to yen is great right now)

Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime/manga, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before.....Thanks...

Oh man, this is REALLY hard to answer. I've been a huge fan of fiction since I was really little, and prone to hyperfixate and finding that one character to go feral over even back then. It tends to fade out as I move on to the next fixation, too, so figuring out ten favorites from the past two decades is NOT easy. But hmm.... Let's see...

In no particular order:

Ahiru/Princess Tutu.

Apollo Justice from Ace Attorney

Probably also Miles Edgeworth from Ace Attorney

Ichigo from Tokyo Mew Mew only because how vital she was in shaping my personality as a kid. She was the blueprint, y'know?

Grantaire from Les Misérables

Atem and Yuugi Mutou from Yugioh. Yes, both, do Not separate. Fun fact, I had a massive crush on Atem as a 13 year old. Make of that information what you will.

Spider-Man. Which Spider-Man? Yes.

Dipper Pines should probably be on this list?

My current fixation is Scum Villain, so Shen Qingqiu/Yuan is my baby at the moment. We'll see how long that lasts lmao.

idkkkk Percy Jackson? Sora from Kingdom Hearts? Nico from PJO? The other pink magical girls I grew up with? Aikka from Oban Star Racers? Kaeya from Genshin Impact? This is just honorable mentions at this point hahaha >v> Kaeya would rank higher if I wasn't so burned out on genshin atm.

There are a lot of characters I love as couples rather than individuals, and a lot I love as part of the whole (Like the FF7 cast), and the love I feel for them is strong but I can't put them as favorite characters separated from their ships or stories, so they don't qualify here. Characters also come and go a lot, but most of these are the ones I could conjure up in my mind that stand the test of time and shifting fixations! It's a bit rambly, but I hope you enjoy my answer anyway, and thank you for the ask!

This was all (besides the Leonin and Paige-) old sketchwork for the old birthday drawing I wanted to make for Habit! Some of it was a little more melancholic, while others were funny, but I'm still pretty sad that I never actually got anything done for it.

The first drawing here is actually in reference to that one post from nice/naughty cats of the week at this one place; "Felix - He knows what he did"

The Leonin was my first iteration of a design for Boris in this big, random DnD idea I got (which I do have more random doodles for; I might post those later or smthn)

And the last one is based off that quote from Arin Hanson - "That reminds me of a dream I had where I was kissing y-

...

A girl."

And finally, we have the (unfortunately very rushed) drawing of Paige and Poppy that I would have submitted for the 5th anniversary zine if I had actually finished it in time and been able to send it in in the first place. Either way, I think it's a goofy little composition that really shows off this stupid kid's feral-ness, and I feel like, in some way - somehow, this game really helped me. Besides scaring/guilting me into taking better care of my teeth, I think there's a lesson to be learned from it; a lot of lessons. About breaking the cycle of abuse, about finding healthy ways to deal with trauma, about the little things that you might not've thought were important but meant the world for someone else, and this game was also one of the many kickers that point out my painfully obvious soft-spot for Tragic Characters and my "I-can-fix-them-itus" - fatal with no cure™️

But in all seriousness, this silly little indie game about making people smile made me feel such a hurricane of emotions for a character that probably also gave me a new lasting fear of dentists.

Thank you, LimboLane, for this masterpiece of a game and the death-grip it has taken over my brain and heart.

(2/2)

HAPPY (late-) ANNIVERSARY!!!

Guess who hasn't been able to post anything for the past month-ish! ME!

Anyways, now that I can, I wanna share some of the doodles I've made for this wonderful game and its community!

To start off, we have the two more "collective" photos; just a big overview of all this... whatever that I've made over time

This is Poppy Thorns! My design for the Flower Kid! They're aro/ace, selectively mute, and despite being a chronic do-gooder, they can be very sassy and smug when they want to

Now for the feral child; Paige Raskals! They're also mute, just... A little different? They won't talk, but they will growl and try to bite at anyone that gets too close. Also, they have an opossum that they just sorta picked up one day named Apple Slices

Here we've got my attempts at figuring out a design for Wallus! And also a drawing of Kamal and an opossum- but he was pretty fun to mess around with, figuring out how I wanted his hair to look; although actually trying to draw the dreads was a pain in my side, all because "the urge to make his hair look like a mop is strong..."

I had actually initially considered making it really puffy like Gerry's hair, but it didn't really look right. Also, I imagine that he'd always keep a pack of gum and a pocketbook for learning French with him.

Need more transfem catgirl friends to meow at

[asmolbirb]

they should invent a word that perfectly encapsulates the great big bursting pit of emotion and heartache and urgency that roosts in your chest when you hear a really really good piece of music

The bad part about returning to work is (luckily) not that I have no energy after the day, it's that I now have too much time to think about projects and not enough time to complete projects (⁠─⁠.⁠─⁠|⁠|⁠）

The backlog has gotten longer already.
