Read recently: Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree
What I was looking for: Because I enjoyed Legends & Lattes, I had not really planned on reading this book. I was sure it could not compare. But then I saw it at my library and could not resist.
What I liked: I enjoyed the friendships in this book a lot. Especially between Viv and Fern.
What I did not like: The love story felt underdeveloped to me. I would not have noticed or minded if it had been left out. Or explored more.
Conclusion: I think if I had read this one first, I would not have liked Legends & Lattes as much as I did. While not high stakes, there is some more plot and excitement in this novel. If you are looking for a more calm fantasy novel but still with a villain to defeat but also with a focus on reading good books and eating good food, then this is the book for you.

When you die you'll lie dead. No memory of you, no desire will survive, since you've no share in the Pieran roses. But once you've flown away you'll wander among the obscure dead, invisible even in the house of Hades.

"Perhaps a lesser-known gift of Kenobi's was his ability to listen."
(AU where post-banishment Ahsoka gets zapped back to TPM, strapped with a fundamental distrust of the Jedi, an apocalyptic vision of the future, and a mandate to help Anakin Skywalker. So, in all this, it's nice to have a confidant.)
edit: link to the fic
#found myself thinking about these two lately#star wars#i return briefly to star wars for May 4th#ahsoka tano#obi-wan kenobi#although he smiles stuff#illustration#art#artists on tumblr#fanart#shout out to those who've read the fic#I went back to edit it recently#cursed experience#trying to decipher my writing is like trying to read doctor's handwriting but i gave it a crack anyway

HOT, SINGLE, UNSTUDIED SPONGES. 3000 NAUTICAL MILES AWAY. Come sail the distance and read Tiger Tiger!
#tiger tiger#ludovica bonnaire#remy bonnaire#jamis arlesi#This comic has been on my radar for *years* and I only recently - finally - sat down to read it. And by god is it amazing.#I don't want to spoil anything! But if you like amazing art and character writing *and* high seas adventure? READ TIGER TIGER.#If you asked my who my favourite character is I could not tell you. I truly like them all!!!#I even like the sleezeball who has less charm than a dead rat. He's *my* darling little rat man. With every disease.#A special shout out to my lad (he is the lad of all time) Jamis Arlesi.#Who - upon walking into frame makes me go 'Sir! Is your bosom too heavy? Do you need a new bra? My hands are free on Thursdays!'#And Ludo! My lass! I love her dearly! Every page made me more fond of her.#Book smart and uses it in very good ways! Naive enough to think it is all she needs! Learns a lot and stays kind through the horrors!#I could go on and on but...you...the person reading this...you *are* going to read it - aren't you?#So I'd hate to spoil you any more! Go read Tiger Tiger! Do it! For the sea sponges!#Rumour has it they are also freshly divorced. It was messy. Sea sponge needs a distraction. That could be you. Distracting that sponge.#You wont know until you click that link and start reading!

older Damian and Maya!! Damian's ranting about art school's allocation of funds and resources lol
Maya is from critically acclaimed comic Robin: Son of Batman (2015) :)
#damian wayne#maya ducard#Maya recently made a reappearance in Batman and Robin (2023) 11 so finished this in celebration!#more RSOB promo but it’s only 13 issues!! 12 if you want to skip the Robin War Tie In!!#you dont need much context for Maya's intro other than Damian killing her father#which if you would also like to read that arc it's in Batman and Robin (2011) 1-8!!#Maya's look was inspired by her civilian outfits so if you know what specific bits BIG HIGHFIVE#batbabyart

reminiscing about childhood books after that ask - all due respect to cool sleek movie toothless....but to me, he will always be a mean little gremlin
#my art#dragon#illustration#how to train your dragon#httyd#httyd books#i love you small toothless. i love you and your beautiful eyelashes. you are not overshadowed to me#also fireworm (top right) and monstrous nightmares as a whole were SO influential on my art and also my ocs#i never thought about it until very recently but my god. my god. so obviously a heavy influence on florawell especially#i drew her a lot as a kid she was my fav. cause she was mean and snooty. nowadays i do appreciate the ugliness of seaslug though#i wanna read the end of that series eventually....get some childhood closure#cressida cowell's drawing style is so charming and good...like drawing intentionally ''bad'' (10000 quotation marks) is so hard to pull off

Read recently: Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell
What I was looking for: I was hesitant to continue the series because the first book felt (and I think initially was intended to be) like a single novel. But someone I trusts said it was good.
What I liked: Simon’s struggles with life after being the Chosen One felt real and believable. And I still love R. Rowell’s take on the magical world. I think it was perfect to have a completely different take on magic in the US compared to the small UK.
What I did not like: There wasn’t too much character development in this one. However, it does take place over the span of two weeks, so realistically, people don’t change that much in a handful of days.
Conclusion: A great continuation of the first book. I am definitely looking forward to the last book.

Drew a bunch of Marinettes in a bunch of different artists styles it was a lot of fun!!
Artists who's styles I mimicked: @buggachat @hamsternamedmarinette @ladybeug @sabertoothwalrus and @anna-scribbles all epic artists 🤟😎
#my art#marinette dupain cheng#miraculous ladybug#miraculous fanart#style mimic#sorry for the @s btw#yall should go follow those artists if you dont already also#this was sort of inspired by a post the three artists on the top row made#i think they all got together and drew with one another#which is really cool#but i was genuinely confused because i mimic styles a lot#and ive seen others do it too so i was just like#wow they really know each others styles really well#until i thought about it and read their posts some more#style mimicking is really freaking fun and i think its really good practice#and a good way to explore other ways of doing things#like you really have to learn new techniques and get out of your comfort zone#also anna scribbles i could not find a recent pic of marinette in her main outfit#so thats the only marinette i drew in different clothes cuz i couldnt find a more recent ref of you drawing it#anna scribble marinette has privileges thats the others dont#but ye#i also threw my own style in there as a frame of reference to what me draw like#ive drawn marinette before just not in a loooong while#sabertooth walrus was the hardest for me to mimic cuz they have a broad range in their style#so its like which sabertooth do i wanna be in this pic#Buggachat has such a distinct style thats very clean and consistent which is amazing so they were easy#being easy or hard arent bad things either it also has to do with like styles meeting up with one another#buggachats and mine arent too too different in some shapes and aspects#so yeah itd be easier plus they drew marinette like 3 sec ago so i have more recent of a ref#as opposed to sabertooth who i have a recent ref of ladybug but not marinette so we got two diff styles in one

So I've had this joke in my head for a couple months (at least), but hadn't found the right spot to make it. Today it is complete.
A hole in my jeans?
Hmm? What's this?
A Patchypus?
REPAIRRY THE PATCHYPUS!!!?!!!
#queueer#visible mending#mending#visiblemending#patches#sewing#my art#phineas and ferb#perry the platypus#repairry the patchypus#I feel like I could have made this look a lot more like perry#but I like my style to be more of an homage#I've done a lot of mends on these jorts recently and I'll show them all off soon#but there's more I want to get done on them before I do#this is a sneak peak of sorts I suppose 😅#I gotta hurry up and finish my mending on them so soon; it's nearly shorts season!#if anyone actually reads my tags I love you and will you please propose to me in my ask box? 💛
