orchid!!

FAST CAR - TRACY CHAPMAN!! really this was a difficult question but i'm going with first thought and honestly the best answer

[allylikethecat]

cactus jasmine and camomile 😁😁😁

YAY!! Thank you so much for sending me questions from the ﹟random get-to-know-me ask game  !!  list!! If anyone else wants to send some, or reblog it for themselves, the list can be found HERE. Question games are my FAVORITE and this one is so fun!

cactus ⇢ something you’re currently learning (about)?

Oooh a friend and I are taking a creative writing class together! It starts tonight - does that count?

jasmine ⇢ do you have a movie or book you loved but will never watch/read again?

Ooooh this is a hard one! I'm honestly not sure - it's kind of a never say never situation? I'm a horribly nostalgic person

chamomile ⇢ what kind of things do you like receiving as gifts?

Honestly I get so excited when anyone thinks of me in general that I'm usually happy with any kind of gift 😂 I'm obsessed with books though so I get very excited when someone gets me a book - especially if it's something off my "Want to Read - Do not own" list on Goodreads. I also LOVE candles, specifically FALL scented candles and when someone gets me a fall scented candle I know they have actually paid attention to me as a person which always feels extra special.

Thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to send me questions off of this list!! I have so missed chatting with you all and I LOVE question games so MUCH so thank you thank you thank you!

not-yet-dead-person

silly comic of a conversation in-game i thought was too funny not to make something proper for instead of a doodle ww

(timelapse + wip images (thus silly process commentary in read more if you like artist commentary :3)

i think the sketch looks silly and goofy and funny so i find it important to share with you the mere presence of the faces i drew on it. i drew it on top of the boxes without staying inside its borders because i find my proportions can get wonky if i draw them cropped in a restricted space. and I feel trapped otherwise and i will draw BAD!!! give me spaceeeee to go wild!!!!

the head circles are there for emotional support

very low res speedpaint because truth is the canvas was much bigger than the space where my comic was placed. i didnt account when exporting my timelapse in 720px that that tiny space would look so pixelated ... but it's able to be percieved, so its okay.

(i will now comment on my process and it is not brief sorry)

usually i would try to clean up my sketches and figure out what goes on top before jumping into linework, but since there are multiple panels and drawings i chose to jump into inking right away for the sake of brevity. i just went in with a brush that uses pen pressure and drew what was needed. i added extra line thickness and contrast in areas around the face because it helps direct your eyes there more easily that way.

according to her equipment rei has a chain belt but i only remembered it existed once I was going to color, and i did not like that discovery... I chose to ignore it to maintain my peace. i already have the color palettes for these characters figured out, and i didnt really want to think about a new element at the moment www I tend to overthink those things a lot so i skipped it

the rest is rather straightforward! not that anything else wasn't, but in here i could turn my brain off and sing. linework and sketching require mumbling so i cannot turn my brain off. just block in the characters with a solid color so i can have a mask (something along those lines,) where the color can stay inside. then just color in !!!

Base colors just had slight cell shading on the skin, and for the hair i airbrush a bit of the skincolor in low opacity near the forehead... I'm not sure what it means, but i can look at the faces easier with it somehow. i like the gentle subtlety it adds even if you cant really tell. it makes things look nice.

background was just me blocking in the color of the wall and floor, shade the wall a bit, then slap a noise and free use wood texture on top. work smarter not harder ! yet it took a bit to make it look stylistically fitting with the characters, and even now i think bottom middle panel looks odd. whatever!!!

for the middle panel i thought itd be funny if the background was a solid silly and colorful one to contrast the next panel's sketchy black one. a contrast to how the word widow is seen. on that note my handwritting is not pointy. i gaslighted my hand into thinking that it was indeed pointy in that moment so i could write "not-yet dead person" in letters that didn't seem cute. my hand did not fall for it but it complied anyway

that's basically it! I'm not sure what else i could say that doesn't feel barebones because it really is that straightforward. if you're curious I used clip studio paint for this. only special brush used was for linework (a brush named Lemon Brush), the rest used were just the default. my computer gets the least credit. it was trying to convince me a 20mb file was going to nuke it all the time and hardly let me save multiple times so i do not appreciate it

this isnt what i usually post on this blog but I'm already sick of all the memes and 'jokes'. I am almost certainly leaving the fandom for good now because of the book of bills release and NO it is not because billford's community has an influx of supporters.

So the worship and romanticization of asylums and other abusive practices for mental health have been steadily gaining traction in recent years, especially with the rise of tiktok's toxicity.

SO many people, especially younger people, regularly talk about how they want lobotomies or how women they don't like should be lobotomized. They get tattoos of lobotomy like it's some quirky fun thing and not one of the most horrific tortures someone can endure.

These same people, ESPECIALLY leftists, will look at anyone they disagree with or don't like and say "get institutionalized, loser" or "et therapy" and it's always in a mocking way. it's always in a policing way.

because these people know that mental wards strip everyone of their freedom and their bodily autonomy. they know these places arent for healing--theyre for silencing.

So the amount of people i see treating bill being institutionalized like a good thing---even the writers and alex himself?

Yeah. Im out ✌🏼

3 Random Facts About Me:

Newsies is my favorite musical! (The 2017 proshot specifically, but I love the 1992 movie too!) I watched them both for the first time 2 years ago this week, so I'm feeling extra gushy about it lately lol.

My first Broadway show was The Great Gatsby and it was incredible! I loved it so much! (It's actually the only Broadway show I've gotten to see so far, but I hope I get to add more shows to the list some day!)

I have a stage-used cast that Anthony Norman wore as Evan Hansen on the US tour of Dear Evan Hansen! Very long story short, he gave it to me at stage door afterwards and he was so lovely! (He was amazing as Evan, too!)

bamboo camellia camomile taro 💚🦈

AHH!! Thank you so much for sending me questions from the ﹟random get-to-know-me ask game  !!  list!! If anyone else wants to send some, or reblog it for themselves, the list can be found HERE. Question games are so much fun and I am so grateful whenever anyone indulges me and sends some! 🫶🏻

bamboo ⇢ do you change into a different outfit when you get home?

Sometimes - depends what I was wearing before, how long I will be home / if I have to leave again.

camellia ⇢ what were you like when you were younger? do you think you’ve changed a lot?

I was very lost when I was younger, and also a lot less sure of myself and a lot shyer? If that makes sense? I was so worried what people thought about me at all times, and then I would get upset that I cared so much. Now that I'm older I feel a lot more at peace and a lot happier with myself / more confident. These days, at least IRL I'm of the mind set that if you don't like me, that's a you problem not a me problem.

chamomile ⇢ what kind of things do you like receiving as gifts?

I answered this one before - anything that really shows the person has listened to me ramble about anything ever. Books make me SUPER EXCITED in particular as do candles (specifically fall ones). But honestly, at the end of the day I'm excited about a card / text and being remembered.

taro ⇢ if someone called you right now to catch up, what’re the things you’d tell them about? I would tell them that the server has been down at work since Thursday so we've all just been vibing / can't do much. I'd tell them that I started reading The Pumpkin Spice Cafe and it's just as cute as everyone has said, and I would tell them that it's a very special day- today marks five official years that I've owned Pop 🥰

Thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to send me an ask with questions from this list oh my gosh! I love question games so much and am so grateful when people send asks with them my way, so thank you, thank you thank you! I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day!

❤️Ally

Thanks for tagging me, bro! 🥰

3 random facts about me:

I love musicals and theatre, but I never got the experience of being a "theatre kid" since my love for it didn't really blossom until I was an adult. My only stage credit is playing a munchkin in my local theatre's production of The Wizard of Oz at age 9. I had a ton of fun doing that and I'd love to do more theatre at some point!

I'm visually impaired. Long story short—I was born with cataracts which went untreated for a while, causing a lot of permanent issues with my vision. Then, after having surgeries to fix the cataracts, I developed glaucoma. Because of all this, I've dealt with low vision, light sensitivity, and several other eye issues my whole life. I use the label "disabled" and I'm super happy to talk about it, answer questions, and advocate for my community!

(This one's weird lol) My sister @this-is-ali and I started collecting little rubber bouncy balls when we were kids. We now have a box of over 1,000 of them just sitting in our closet! 😂 I'm really not sure what to do with them, so if anyone has any ideas, plz send them my way!

Your turn! Anyone who wants to do this tag, please do it! Consider this as me tagging you!
