#scheduling this one for now tho... :3c

[echonidae]

✦ commissions are reopening !!! ✦ tomorrow (oct. 6th) at 5pm BRT (UTC -3:00)! :D

some more stuff about this upcoming batch under the cut!!

AAAA finally getting these open again :')

there have been a couple updates to commissions, including in some of the prices. the rules still are the same as last time though c: and the process itself also has not changed either!

but!! backgrounds for the illustrations are officially available now too!! :D backgrounds that require shading and lighting but are otherwise just backdrops are an extra $5, and then scene-like environments with more detail and background elements, or in which character interacts with their surroundings, or backgrounds that require depth and perspective, are $10 to $15 extra depending on complexity! we can always discuss these and see what works for any given order tho, as usual c:

simple gradients or textures or patterns all remain free, and icons, doodles, and (especially) experimentals may get nifty backgrounds entirely on the house too! :D

and!!! i'm also going to be offering $5 USD doodle commissions too!! you can read more about 'em and the examples more closely over [here]!! they work a bit different than regular commissions in that they have a 30min time limit (and their own queue list, too, so that they don't take slots from the regular orders) :3c

:D !!!

this batch also has a smaller number of slots between active and queue ones, so as to get through workload faster and more efficiently and hopefully open another batch sooner c':

and, well, if the queue slots get claimed within a week, i'm alright with increasing then just a bit, but i reckon 15 should work out well!

i'm still finishing up a couple of the previous orders too, but i'm organizing things so that neither those orders nor any new ones will interfere with each other, so, no worries there!! ;v;

but yes, i'll be posting this again tomorrow once everything's ready to go :3c thank you again to everyone who stuck around during the long impromptu hiatus, and all the folks who sent messages, and for all the orders in the last batch!!! i'm trying to pace posting all the previous commissions, but i hope to add them all to the gallery soon :3ccc

and yeah, thank you for stopping by as well!!! let me know if you have any questions, or thoughts and feedback or suggestions (on the website too, always open to feedback on it! i ran through the entire thing fixing up everything that needed it, desktop and mobile, so please do let me know if you have any issues with the place there c: )

[sysig]

maybe you should doodle however many or few starcon/helix/damned characters as you like (in human or alien form) in cute halloween costumes! imagine... ZEX dressed up as Ariel thelittlemermaid...

Day 26 - "I hadn't realized humans also had aquatic subcultures!" "Oh, well, uhm..."

5, 6, 16, 17, and 50 :3c

5. Do you sleep with a stuffed animal? 

no. I used to, but my cat is a MENACE!! who tries to ATTACK THEM and will tear them up (despite having pLENTY of soft toys to play with. smh. its like..she cant tell the difference between 'soft toy she is allowed to chew' and 'soft toy that is MINE'...cat sized brain -_-...) so now the stuffed animals stay on the Shelf or Dresser, and I simply cuddle my cat like she is a little baby when its sleeping time instead. and shes gotta accept it bc shes the reason i do not have plushies on the bed anymore....take responsibility miss zilla....😤

6. Do you prefer drawing or writing? 

ohhh hard question. it rly depends on my mood ngl. I love doing both! I ...think if I HAD to pick. I'd choose writing actually... its a bit less time consuming and easier lately. this answer could change in a week tho :")

16. Want any tattoos? What of? 

yeah!! I already have one I lowkey wanna get removed bc it was impulsive and im bored of it LMAO but id wanna replace it with a birth of venus tribute, and I kinda want one sleeve thats ocean + nature themed, and one sleeve that's...vaguely rococo themed with lil tributes to other stuff I love too (omg a lil cinnamoroll tat would b so cute, possibly some pokemon and a lil masha too??) and I have HAD a tmm tat concept sketched out forever but it'd be a bigger piece, so im not sure WHERE id get it on my body, possibly...a chest/collar area placement would be ideal.... hm. also ive always wanted a lil something around my ankle, maybe a floral piece or smth. or a lil dragon around my ankle for poor 17 yr old me who threw a FIT over not being allowed to get a tat at that age HAHA shout-out to them bc that was funny asf looking back. anyway YES I want more tats but Money u know. :")

17. Want any piercings? Where? 

look I respect and love the way they look on other ppl but No none for me. i used to have my ears pierced but let them grow in. im lowkey very anxious/paranoid that if I got any piercings someone would try to fight me and Rip Them Out and its very irrational but very Scary to think abt. (or that theyd be around my mouth and get caught on food and id swallow them or smth kjadsfhkj) my paranoia simply Wont Allow it. But again. they are VERY cool on other ppl, esp the more alternative/big ones!! i love to see em 🥺

50. Wild Card. Any question, ask away. 

ohh wait does this question mean i..come up with a question for myself lol?? or am I misreading. anyway im choosing to make this question 'what drawings are u working on rn' bc I want to Ramble abt that. I am CURRENTLY working on (4) diff magical girl drawings bc im putting together a mini magical girl zine + coloring book :) im having fun!! and should be posting previews within the next week or so if all goes according to schedule.... after I finish that I also want to draw a blue knight + ichigo drawing with some cute redesigns I did forever ago hehe :3 very excited for tmmn s2.....aaaaa they are so cute im literally like...getting so happy just seeing screenshots and new fanart of them i love them sm.....

tysm for asking jace!!!! <333

[yappacadaver]

ALL ODD NUMBERS LETS GOOO

SCREAMISING ILU SO MUCHHHH it's under a cut tho cause wowow what a long ass post i am writing xD

Original post is here (still accepting even numbers btw xD)

What’s their love languages?

Yumi is 50/50 on Touch and Quality Time. Sure, she’s capable of saying some of the cheesiest cringiest shit, but that’s more of a balm for others who need it. When she needs to express her own love for love’s sake, it’s sex, cuddles, and tagging along on adventures.

Raymond is also split like 60/40 on Quality Time and Words of Affirmation. Is he a mouthy liar? Yes. Does he spend his entire life with verbal walls up wishing they could come down so he could have a gentle and vulnerable chat now and then? Also yes.

Who cooks? Who cleans up? Who’s banned from the kitchen?

Technically they both can cook, but whether they have the time or energy to do so is the issue. Raymond cooks more often, if only to save money. Cleaning is a shared effort with middling success. No picks or bans in the rayumi kitchen so far lol

Who does what chores?

Chores are juggled randomly as their shitty schedules allow. Yumi prefers laundry and hates doing the dishes. Raymond is good for maintenance but won’t organize or tidy shit.

Who is the more romantic one?

They’re both insane in the head romantic for each other but it usually manifests weird

Like Raymond, who’s used to being a caretaker, constantly trying to anticipate her needs and provide for her (but she’s ridiculous and mental so it’s a real head scratcher)

And Yumi expresses her feelings with physical harassment + trying to baby an old man

Baths or showers together? Do they like elaborate ones with bubbles and flower petals?

Showers, they don’t often have time for a bath. Both might secretly fantasize about a cute bubble and flowers bath but their tub is hardly that romantic and neither would want to clean up afterwards xD

What’s a song that describes their relationship? Or, what’s the song that they’ve deemed “their” song?

Idk if they have “their” song I need to do more research, but I do be having a playlist of songs that describe their relationship :3c

What’s their opinion on PDA?

Yumi loves affection anywhere, Raymond is super embarrassed to be seen as a creep in public but he doesn’t have the heart to push Yumi away

Do they go on vacations together? Where is their favorite place to visit?

One time they go to Ohio

Their favorite place is probably the beach though. Inexpensive, local, and they can get crab rangoons :3c

What does a relaxing night in look like for them?

They enjoy a good couch snuggle, Raymond likes to read and Yumi will watch TV or play video games. Night does NOT end before they have ridiculous sicko mode sex

How do they silently/subtly express their love for each other?

Mostly just by being there for each other through the awful shit. I can’t say more honestly xD I’m writing a fic about this dw

Which of their friends/family pokes fun at them for them getting flustered/affectionate?

This is a very fun and lighthearted way to describe what Audrey has to say to Raymond about this relationship LOL

Do they like pick up lines?

God no, but Yumi does love saying cringey shit just to embarrass/frustrate Raymond. He takes it well honestly xD

What is their dream home? Do they buy a place together? Who plans the decorations and who does the heavy lifting?

Their dream home is just a house that’s been paid off!! But they’re not financially there honestly, between the costs of running the mortuary and the costs of all the extra demon hunting shit, plus costs of keeping three people in the basement, Raymond doesn’t have much money. Yumi has debts and a weed habit and she likes to leech off Raymond lmao

Who would propose? What would their wedding be like?

My god, I don’t think they’re getting married o_o

Neither of them are too keen on the logistic and public aspects of marriage, and the ties that end up binding them are much more tangible than whatever a ceremony and some rings could offer.

Yumi does propose as a joke with anything vaguely ring-shaped though.

What is something they can never agree on? How do they meet in the middle?

They differ quite a lot on matters of faith. Raymond is obviously not a faithful Christian but he has a few holdover beliefs that he hasn’t really considered. What other beliefs he’s collected from research and travel he takes seriously, and he considers them evidence of his growth as a person.

Yumi hates organized religion, believes religion and most belief systems are based in control not truth, and strongly disagrees with the notion of there being one omnipotent god.

Some of Raymond’s beliefs strike her as archaic or simplistic. Raymond thinks Yumi could stand to be a little more thoughtful and less dismissive.

They respect each other as individuals more than they need their religious/sociological beliefs to interfere though.

THANK TOU SOSOSO MUCH FOR SENDING TwT had a lot of fun writing all this out heheeeee

Battle Subway Restrictions Apply: No Legendaries

(AO3)

Summary:  Ingo and Emmet have always been together. A pair of twins. A set of brothers. Sure, they've had their time apart from each other - it's not like they're conjoined at the hip! But they've always known where the other is, and if distance was a problem- well, isn't that what modern technology is for?

They were always meant to be a two-car train. Never to be uncoupled until the two of them were both good and ready to let go. And even as age tries to drag them down as the years go by, they simply keep each other up and about. Youth is impossible to let go of when they have each other. How could they possibly be 55 now when they still feel like they're still 27? (Do NOT bring up the backache complaints.)

...But of course. Fate always had a funny relationship with twins. And not every joke lands in their favor.

Word Count: 1971

Bonus Tags:  Pre-PLA, Ingo's Disappearance, Ingo and Emmet Are Old,  Crack...?, Angst, Birthdays, Jokefic

A/N:  Everyone kept making Grandpa Ingo jokes in PLA so I said let's make that canon.  They're in their fifties here, but age has never really stopped anyone before!  ESPECIALLY in Pokemon.  Anyway, this fic was spawned from me giggling over thinking, “But wouldn’t it be funny if he IS old in PLA, but not because he’s been there for years.  He’s just always been old.  And now he’s rock-climbing freehand with a Sneazler and getting jacked as hell”.  Infinitely more funnier.  This does not get touched upon in this fic tho.  Another funny joke does instead :3c

////

Trainers, for lack of a better reason, never seem to know when to retire.  Likewise, both Ingo and Emmet find themselves in a predicament many veterans and older Leaders tend to find themselves in.  The pair of twins walk down the empty subway passageway, the area clear of lingering trainers as they officially close for the night.  With the remaining minutes of their birthday ticking away aimlessly, they find themselves in no rush to get home.  Another eventful year together.  Another moment spent together.  They’ve learned that the time they’ve spent together is one rarely experienced by others, and by now, yearly celebrations of their birth seem small in comparison to the time they’ve spent battling together on the subway.

That being said, Ingo won the coin flip so now they’re having chocolate cake once they get home.  Emmet can suck up his loss later; they still have to get candles as per tradition.  Chandelure loves lighting the fire hazards, and both Ingo and Emmet agreed that they’d get five candles each to satisfy the fire/ghost-type.  An easy silence stretches between them like a relaxing Purrloin as their footsteps echo in tandem with each other. However, the silence between the two can only last so long until Ingo breaks it with his booming voice.  He never really learned how to control his volume after all these years.

"Emmet," Ingo begins, removing his hat to run his fingers through his thinning hair, "this two-car train has been running for quite some time, wouldn't you say?"

"That's true.  Yup!"  Emmet continues their march forward, the Battle Subway already having reached its last stop half an hour ago.  "About 34 years now.  Almost 35."

"Do you ever think about retiring from being a Subway Boss?"

"Nope.  Never."  He swings his arms as he walks, still so full of energy despite his age.  "A train must always run as scheduled!  No delays.  No interruptions.  Time hasn't put locomotives out of commission yet!  We still have much to do.  More battles to conduct."

Ingo chuckles as he matches his brother's step.  "Indeed, you're very correct, Emmet!  We can only improve, both in battle and innovations.  Speaking of which - remind me to look over the schematics for renovations.  I believe some of our cars are due for maintenance soon."

"Of course.  First thing in the morning - maintenance and future plans!”  Emmet pauses in his thoughts at his own words.  He wonders briefly if Ingo too has his own future plans, given the question he posed earlier.  “Actually - why did you bring retirement up?"  He looks over to his twin curiously.  "Are you thinking about putting the brakes on this train?"

"Not in the slightest."  He shakes his head and walks ahead of his brother, the exit to the subway just in sight.  "But I figured I'd check in with you just to be sure.  In case you do want to retire eventually.  I wouldn't want to push you past your limits if you're more than ready to lay this old carriage to rest.  No need for unnecessary wear and tear."

"Verrrry unlikely."   They come to a stop just before the corner leading to the stairs out the subway, Ingo turning around to face his brother as Emmet taps his chin mischievously.  "But did you bring this up because of our birthday?  I didn't realize 55 was that old.  Or should I start calling you an old geezer now?"

"Ha ha, you're the same age as me."  Ingo snorts as Emmet sticks his tongue out like a child.  "I wasn't the one complaining about a bad back earlier."

"Hey!  You carry around Galvantula.  Tell me how your back feels then."

"Apologies, I can't hear you over the sound of my floating ghost-type pokémon."

"Don't you mean your loud as hell voice?"

"Rude."  Despite his small admonishment, Ingo still laughs.  "I see I won't have to worry about taking you along for another ride then."

"Really!  As if I'd let you ride alone."  Emmet pokes his brother's chest as Ingo backs away playfully.  "Don't forget!  I am Emmet.  You are Ingo.  We're a two-car train.  Always a pair.  Always together.  Where one goes, the other follows.  If you start forgetting, remember to take your omega 3 pills!  Health checks are important safety checks."

"You know as well as I do that those pills hardly do anything for improving health."

"I know!  Pretty fucked up they keep trying to sell it to us 'cause we're old.  We may be old, but our wheels aren't rusty.  Nope!"

"Agreed.  Although I would say I'm the much younger twin, right, Emmet?"  Ingo spins about and walks forward as Emmet trails behind him with a laugh.  

"Oh, so now you're the younger twin?  Really?  After how many years?  I see.  Your final stop is… straight to hell!" he responds playfully as Ingo laughs loudly.  The younger twin notices a stray flyer littering the ground right as his brother is about to step on it, but before he can warn his twin, Ingo speaks up again.  

"I simply cannot, there is no terminal called Hell in my- ah."  Right on cue, Ingo's boot steps down and slips on the flimsy flyer.  He loses his balance and quickly begins to topple over with a noise of surprise.

Emmet laughs as he rushes forward to grab the back of his twin's coat- 

Except. 

For some reason, Ingo's coat slips through his fingers as the amusement falls from Emmet's voice.  A force of wind presses against his back as it pushes him forward.  His boots skid against the tile of the subway, and with widening eyes he watches as the ground in front of Ingo... disappears.

The shock melts into horror as Ingo yells, arms windmilling by his side as he tries desperately to fight against gravity and the pull of whatever this thing is (shining void-like spinning swirling bright dark white black wormhole portal unnatural dangerous bad bad bad!) gaping wide at his feet.  "Emmet-!"

"Ingo!"  He reaches out for his brother yet again, risking getting pulled in as he runs forward to catch him.  "Ingo, I'm-!"  Just as he's about to wrap his arms around his brother, a burst of energy flashes in their eyes as they both shriek.  Still, Emmet hugs the air in front of him tightly even as the light engulfs his brother.  Still, Emmet cries out for his twin even as the answering soft pop is the only sound left in the subway.  

…Still.  Just like that, everything becomes still.  A soft rustle of the wind is all that’s left as a clatter of pokéballs falls to the ground. 

Ingo's pokéballs.  

He falls to his knees, chest heaving as his arms hug himself.  The subway is quiet now.  Lights flicker harmlessly from the aftermath.  There’s no one else here.  No one else but Emmet.  Just Emmet.  Cold realization builds from his chest and slowly spreads, and spreads, and spreads , freezing him, chilling him to his core as his breath catches and stutters and breaks.  Never in all the fifty five years he has been alive has he ever prepared for this kind of separation.

Never.  At least, not yet.  Not this soon.  He had at least another ten or so years left with Ingo to even consider the oncoming waltz with death.  They still had things to do.  Places to visit.  Pokémon to see.  His chest seizes with the realization that they just turned fifty five.  Today, they are fifty five.

…They?  No, they.  Right?  Today.  Today, they are.  Right?  

…But how can they be a they if there is only him?  No Ingo, just Emmet.  The truth pulls a pained whine from him as he stares at the tiles his brother once stood on.

(he wasn’t ready he wasn’t ready he wasn’t ready he wasn’t ready he needed needed needed more time more time more TIME-) 

Today.  Today he is.  He is-

Just Emmet.

"Ingo...?"  His soft voice isn't loud enough to echo in the empty halls.  Still, he tries again as he calls for his twin.  "Ingo...!"  As if to reward his efforts, the empty subway station just barely echoes back his cry.  The lacking response only works in swallowing him whole.  His breathing quickens as he looks around wildly.  Emmet has never needed to be loud enough to echo because Ingo would always answer loud enough for the both of them.  Ingo was is Emmet's echo.  

And now his echo has been silenced.

Desperately, his hands scrabble at the spot his brother stood just seconds ago.  He scratches and claws and tries to peel back the tile, the ground, the earth as tears fill up his vision.  Panic and despair rises up in his throat like bile as a broken sob breaks through.

"Ingo!"  But the ground doesn't break.  Emmet slams his fists against the ground, pounding at it as if it’ll open back up and return his brother to him.  "Ingo!!  INGO!!"  He pounds and pounds and pounds .

But the gods don't answer back.

And the wind refuses to carry his cries to them.

*🔺*⚡*🔻*

A phone chimes in her pocket and Elesa takes it out, a smile on her face as she reads the familiar contact name.  Without missing a beat, she opens up the texting app and quickly scrolls through her previous conversation with the twins to get to the new messages.

Can I request bakugo, kirishima and shoji with a reader who has adhd? It's totally fine if u can't, but I love seeing hcs about stims and stuff,, thank u :) !

//raises hand// u mean me <:3c I have adhd so prepare for a lot of uhhhhh habits that I have-

BAKUGOU KATSUKI

-This guy knows fuckall about ADHD lbr

-He’s the guy who can sit down and study and stay focused, who keeps a regular sleep schedule, who sits still in class (for the most part). Sure, he’s shouty, but he’s not got a clue about what you deal with.

-Before he really gets to know you, he thinks you’re a pain in the ass ngl. Like, why can’t you study, it’s not that hard? What do you mean you didn’t go to bed until 3am because falling asleep is ‘boring’? Sorry when was the last time you showered - what do you mean you thought you already did it?!

-It’s probably frustrating to deal with his remarks. Like, he’s judging you for something that’s out of your control.

-It’s best to just lay it out flat for him; call him out for being an asshole. Not only because he’s just being rude, but because he’s being rude about things that are out of your hands.

-He’ll feel guilty about it, but he won’t say anything. Which kind of sucks, because an apology would be nice but...be patient with him also, he’s still learning.

-He would probably take it upon himself to learn what the heck adhd even is, and how it affects people. And what kinds of things you can do to help with it!

-He’d be quieter around you after that, and more lenient. He’d still help you study, but he’d be less gung-ho about shoving your face in a book. Sometimes he’ll read the paragraphs to you while you follow along or make notes, and he’ll help you make summary pages that are organised and colour coded for easy access.

-He finds a neat little fidget toy online and orders one for you, it’s like. A little cube with buttons and switches and little rolly things on each side, very good for when you’re in class and your leg is bouncing and you’re twirling your pen around while staring at the ceiling.

-He definitely can relate to the emotional side of adhd tho. Feeling Everything or Nothing, not really being able to control or get a handle on intense emotions, having outbursts sometimes. He doesn’t really know how to help you with that, because he is, in fact, a loud boi. It’s probably pretty common that you’ll yell something and he’ll yell back, but it devolves into a basic conversation at a high volume.

-Once he gets to know you and starts dating you, he’ll think your mannerisms are cute. The way you sway back and forth while you’re standing, the little wiggly thing you do with your hands when you’re excited for something.

-He also really likes watching you train, and training with you. Your brain goes fast and the rest of you follows, so it’s pretty common for you to lay waste to your opponents. When you don’t doubt yourself, your instinct shines through and you’re incredibly clever.

-It carries over to conversations sometimes, where you’ll always have some quick remark to smack somebody with when they talk shit.

-He’s seen the downsides of adhd, but he also sees the kind of pros it can have, and he sees how hard you work to get things done in spite of it. He thinks you’re pretty cool.

KIRISHIMA EIJIROU

-He also doesn’t know what adhd, not really.

-He’s heard of it, but only the stereotypes. The ‘can’t sit still, always talking, not very smart’ stereotypes. So he probably sees your behaviours and doesn’t connect the dots.

-He notices you staring out the window a lot in class, and not really giving much to group conversation. Plus you sometimes need people to repeat things, two or three or four times, before it clicks with you. He doesn’t think you’re dumb, not at all (he’s seen your grades and you’re definitely not dumb) but he does wonder what’s up with you.

-He’ll probably ask you one day, after seeing you watching a movie with subtitles on, despite it being in your native language. Just be honest with him and tell him that yeah, you have adhd.

-He’ll probably be the guy to say ‘but you dont act like you have adhd’ because all he has to go off of are stereotypes. It’s important to set him straight. Tell him what it’s really like, the good parts, the bad parts, the ugly parts.

-The ‘not being able to tidy anything up because the stars aren’t in alignment’ parts. The ‘everything looks horribly disorganized but you know where everything is’ parts. The ‘I haven’t brushed my teeth in three days because I lost track of time’ parts.

-He already thought pretty good of your before, but now that he knows you really have to fight to be where you are, he’s in awe. You’re such a strong person, which he really admires.

-If you do something that’s ‘weird’ he’ll ask you to explain it. He’s honestly just curious, and wants to learn more about you and what drives you, so don’t be offended by it.

-But he’ll definitely like the fidget toys you have, particularly the squishy or stretch ones. And he finds that your study tricks really help him in terms of paying attention, and he’s able to absorb the material better. You guys always make sure to create study sheets together that are laid out well and easy to access.

-He also really like the energy you have during training, and often seeks you out to partner up. Whereas sitting in a classroom isn’t your strong suit, being out on the field and moving around is. You’re got a quick wit and a smart brain, and when you’re using your body at the same time, it’s easier to keep track of your thoughts and put them into action.

-10/10 loves the shit out of you and lowkey brags to everyone about how good his S/O is.

SHOJI MEZO

-The quietest and most understanding of the bunch.

-He -like the others- probably also doesn’t know much about adhd, but he’s far more relaxed about it when you tell him. He’s kind of just like ‘oh, okay’ and it doesn’t change his opinion of you.

-But when he sees how it really affects you, that’s when he starts to think differently. 

-He’s not a bad student in terms of grades. he’s pretty mediocre, both in hero training and classes, and he’s okay with it. But he sees how much you bust your ass just to be where you are, and he’s certainly not envious.

-When you tell him what other kinds of fun things you have to deal with, he probably feels a little bad for you at first. He’s already self conscious about himself, so if he had to go through the things you do, his self esteem would probably be pretty low.

-but he really respects that you’re owning your adhd, and working with it instead of trying to ignore it and make it go away. 

-Plus, with cons come pros, and you have so many of them. It can be hard to get into things sometimes, but once you do? He’s seen the way you get when you hyperfocus, and the amount you can achieve when you’re in that state. He’s learned not to bother you until you’re done whatever you’re doing when you’re focused, knowing that once you lose it, it’s gone and you’ll never get it back.

-And the way you enthuse about your interests is adorable. he admire you passion and knowledge about certain subjects, and the lengths you’re willing to go to in order to learn about them.

-He doesn’t usually like being your partner during training, mostly because you kick his ass using sped and intelligence alone. Plus your stamina and unwillingness to stay knocked down is...something. Something real good.

-He definitely sees the appeal of fidget toys. After he tries yours, he’ll probably get one for himself, and keep it in his off hand while he’s working. I mean, six arms, y’know? That’s like four more arms to not be busy with when he’s working, and four more arms of sensory input. Having something to fiddle with actually helps his concentration too.

-Speaking of sensory input, this guy gives the best hugs when you’re overstimulated by something. A good squeeze calms down the sympathetic nervous system, and he’s hands down the best at hugs. He holds you tightly and blocks out whatever light and noise that he can, until you’ve calmed down and are more equipped to deal with things.

-You two mesh pretty well together, and there’s a lot he can learn from you. He respects you and cares about you!

@texas-hates-taxes-too I giggled at the last tag x3 also

*kicks in the door and slams more au stuff on the table* GOOD NEWS I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THE RECOLLECTION PART THAT'S GOING UNDER A CUT BC I GOT RAMBLY

ok! so. after watching the ship blow up, tucker's fucking distraught thinking his kid is dead, church thinks Tex is dead, the rest of blue team is upset, things are kind of shit for a while. then the UNSC calls up tucker because junior had his name and tucker's phone number written inside his armor u know like u do with the coats of small children. and they're like "is this your child we found him clinging to the leg of a soldier with aqua armor at one of our outposts" junior bit wyoming in the leg when he tried to kidnap him and when they landed/fell into another outpost he saw the aqua armor and was like DAD HELP but it wasn't tucker (but they did help the kid and wyoming was like oh shit this isn't a sim base this is the actual UNSC and booked it) and also they want him and junior to be alien ambassadors so Tucker and Yurch get Vic to pull some strings so Yurch can go with them to Sanghelios bc fambly gotta stick together :3c (a family can be a human dude, a robot dude, and their tiny alien son 😌💙💛💚)

Church is like *gets relocation orders* yeah this is bullshit *calls command* "hey fuckers you can't separate me and caboose he got all fucked up in the head for your stupid war so he needs someone looking after him and that's gotta be me because I know his medication schedule and how to deal with his night terrors and also his allergies and favorite snacks" and command can't say "we need to isolate u bc ur what's left of alpha" so they're like ..... nnnnngh ok fine but they send one of the remaining agents to Rats Nest too to keep an eye on everything

(since Boose and Church are stationed at Rats Nest across from Grif and Simmons the blue team agent grif sells the ammo to is church lol)

also I've been doodling since I couldn't go back to sleep so here's agent Rhode Island aka Private Duncan Argus, "sim trooper" who keeps almost blowing his cover bc he's way too competent to be on their level so he intentionally drags his feet and trips over stuff among other demoralizing intentional fuckups

I'm thinking that dark blue Violet for armor scheme since the rats Nest blues all had different colored shoulders. not sure about freelancer armor accents tho. still on the fence

Church is there to remind Caboose to keep his safety on so far fewer people get shot👍

and Miller is a little grumpy about losing Church when Wash comes to pick them up because he's their little office rat. he can't hit the broad side of a barn with literally any weapon but he ran blue base in BG so long he's like *gets reports done 10x faster than anyone else but is also a little shit about it*

Caboose: Did someone die?

Wash: What? No one died—

Caboose: Did Church die again?

Wash: .... what?!

Church: I'm not dead you idiot, I'm literally standing right next to you.

Caboose: 😔 Sometimes I can still hear his voice.

Church: See, now I know you're just fucking with me.

Wash: ... what is wrong with you people.

this is already kind of long and i haven't even gotten the freelancers yet I'll put that in a separate post tho I think, that's a lot on its own

(thank u for the interest I didn't think anyone else would like it 👉👈)

IM ALIVE (NEW UPDATES AND MORE!!)

HI GUYS! So I know I disappeared for... a couple months.. now.. KGJHS

Things have- as you might have guessed- been really crazy and I just hadn't had the energy to draw or interact outside of my immediate circles n all @_@

BUT New month! New plans! New and Better me!!

I wont get into details of it all, but after such mental exhaustion and general craziness/stress of life, I'm finally gaining my energy back and even seeing a therapist and psychiatrist, and feeling more like myself again ♥

And with that, there are New Announcements as well! Regarding things like art, freebies, artfight, and more!So let's get right into it!!

Firstly; Yes I am drawing again! Starting this Monday, July 5th, I will be back to streaming just about daily! I plan to do a Monday-Friday schedule streaming.

Mondays will be for warm-ups and doodles (maybe throw in some quick freebies in there >:3c wink wonk) Tuesdays through Thursdays will switch up between Patreon Rewards, Commissions, Trades/Artfight, etc. And Fridays will either be for more Personal works or just fun stuff! Whether freebies or other things! A sort-of winding down thing!!

NOW GRANTED: I may not instantly follow through this schedule, as I dont wanna overwhelm myself, but I figured having a sort of routine should at the least help! That way I can give myself breaks throughout the week and have the weekends for relaxing (when Im not doing the freebie streams!)

Which brings me to my next thing-

Freebie streams are coming back!

I do plan on doing the weekend freebie streams as before- they just may not be until later this month! That way I have time to get back into the rhythm of drawing and not immediately throw myself into the midst of everything (that wont turn out well JGHJHSD)

So although i dont have set dates I will keep you guys updated! <3

Patreon Rewards!

I know Im extremely behind on rewards, but I do plan on getting those done! Slowly but surely!

I will be working on the earlier ones through this upcoming week, and (hopefully) get in July's rewards in before the month ends! So if you Patrons want to, you can send me your requests for this month! (Please wait until after the 5th tho!! When the payments are processed/deposited!) I will make an announcement for rewards as per usual.

For those of you not already, You can be a supporter on my Patreon here, and depending on your tier, have access to my Discord server where you get access to posts and things before anywhere else!! (And even other things >:3c )

Commissions!

I dont know if I will be re-opening my commissions this month, but if so it probably wont be for a couple weeks at least- Until I can get my bearings again.

For those that have commissioned me already, I will be eventually reaching out to you to either work out a refund or some sort of compromise! I know a LOT of you who commissioned me have been waiting months if not a whole year for your commission, so I completely understand if you want your money back! If you absolutely do not mind the wait then we will figure out the deets on getting your commission done within the next couple of months!

Thank you guys so much for those who have been patient with me on that ;3; i owe you my life Artfight!! WOOO

Since July already started, Artfight 2021 has been an absolute hit already, and Im already so happy and proud of everyone doing so well in those! And I DO plan to participate this year as well, but i just may be a bit late to the party as I still have to catch up on my profile (and of course actually drawing so-) I will (eventually) update my page for that, but you guys are welcome to check my page out regardless!!

(ALSO: My girlfriend Noxxi-a has joined the site as well!! Go check her page out >:3c)

I think??? That about covers everything, but if there's anything else I need to bring up, I will let you guys know!!

Thank you guys- again, numerous times- SO SO MUCH for being so incredibly patient with me and for understanding!!

You guys are the best and idk where I would be without you all <3

[haikyuuscreaming]

Can you do Hc's for iwa, Kags, and Akaashi (or someone else) as pro-volley players, like how they keep a relationship, family, and having a fan base lol bonus points for how s/o would react

pro-volleybaes ! besides kags, im not confident that akaashi and iwa would pursue vball professionally, but hey im not complaining if i get to see more of their thighs

iwaizumi

- manages his time between the family and vball so well, you’re afraid he’s neglecting volleyball

- he goes through some TOUGH SHIT to do this

- he wakes up early as hell to practice for volleyball and always kisses you on the forehead before he goes :3c

- makes breakfast while you’re asleep sometimes

- since vball is a pretty fluid career, he’s out and about practicing and doing matches

- he always goes home straight away tho

- practically forces his manager to let him go home when he needs to

- your kids always want to see him practice so sometimes you take them to go watch him and it’s so cute how they scream out “PAPA” when they see him!!

- for fan-base: he’s not used to it because it’s always oikawa that the fans want, but he gets swarmed by them too

- friendly enough? he does autographs and pictures but anything else other than those and simple conversations, he shuts down with “sorry i gotta keep going” or “i have… a family”

- you think it’s adorable how weirded out he gets when fangirls ask for his number or whatever and he looks at you and mouths “HELP”

kageyama

- bitch every since going pro, he’s literally been the star of volleyball talk

- when out in public, random people notice you two and always ask random shit and ask for autographs and pictures (spoiler: kageyama does not do pictures)

- you think it’s cute how he’s grown from antisocial high school kags to a full-blown athlete who can now somewhat hold a conversation with his fans

- at first it’s really rocky, he pushes himself entirely into this career and you two have this heavy argument over this because he can’t contain himself

- eventually though the two of you get through it together

- he’s always busy but on his days off, he promises you that you two can do whatever you’d like  

- always makes time for the kids if you two have them!! it’s honestly what motivates him to keep to this on-and-off vball schedule

- you get a lot of questions too: “are you really kageyama’s s/o? wow, that’s so cool!” “isn’t he always busy? we always see him on the courts”

- you get subjected to some hatemail from diehard kageyama stans but he always finds out about it and every so often he releases a psa that has a bottomline “Stop Fucking With My S/O Or I’ll Beat The Shit Out Of You”

- tl:dr; very rocky beginning but the two of you support each other the whole way

akaashi

- treats it like any other work/career tbh

- fanbase? no problem, he’ll sign whatever and say hello and then get going with his day

- the best at handling these giant fancrowds and publicity

- he’s super devoted to you too! very hyperaware of any implications his fans make about you and is fast to clear things up

- VERY VERY lowkey kinda likes showing you off or mentioning you to fans: makes him think, “wow this is real. i get to tell clingy fans about my amazing s/o for a valid reason”

- he has two different personalities?? his hardworking, pretty-boy collected volleyball personality on the courts is scarily intense

- but when he gets home he’s your ordinary domestic husband who is most likely the only one in the house who can cook without setting off fire alarms

- you beg him for lessons on how to handle big crowds and publicity

- when you’re seen in public with you, you’re always really friendly to fans and y’all get labelled an OTP real fast

- (sometimes akaashi thinks you get too friendly and gets kinda jealoussss hehehe)

- especially if yall be having kids, he makes sure to wave at you guys if you’re watching his games

[transboybreeder]

You doing okay at the moment? Seems like you've been really quiet recently, and not just while you were sick. I hope you know that some of us at least are thinking of you! (And not solely in a sexy way, although, that's also true...) just wanna make sure you're doing alright! Sorry this isn't sexy but I really like you (at least, the "you" you portray on here) so i hope you're feeling good right now. Or if not, very soon. Take care!

first of all thank u for not being weird and having a healthy level of detachment to me and this blog and the awareness that the way i act on here isnt 1:1 the same as the way i act irl lol

second of all thanks for your concern but im alright :’) just a whole lot of stuff happened at once. some plans got changed bc of the rona, i had to figure out new ones, had other shit to figure out and schedule unrelated to those plans, and on top of that my antidepressant dose has been halved and me being sick? that was actually minor withdrawal symptoms bc ive been on the previous dose for a long ass time :’) good news is nothings wrong with me and my bodys mostly adjusted by now. but i didnt make the connection until like 3 or 4 days of feeling like shit and eating rice and toast lol

lifes not always sexy! wish it could be but alas u-u im moving out on august 18th and theres just a lot more to do than there wouldve been if our government was competent and we werent in late stage capitalism.

on that note though one thing ive been meaning to do is pick out new clothes :3 if any of yall like me enough to pick out things you think i’d look cute in feel free to send them my way! i might buy them and model them for you lol ;3c i p much only wear black tho so send me emo shit. but stuff like underwear is also appreciated and doesnt have to be black uwu

[regalisventi]

this isn’t even all of my vaati ocs in general but ANYWAYS let’s have a brief introduction to twin princes au because i said i would. someday i should redraw these guys.

click on the pics for their names!

Regent: The first Vaati in twin princes AU, the second prince of the kingdom of Windhm. His brother Octavo abdicates his right to the throne when they’re around 20 years old, leaving Vaati to take the throne. Regent is also the most powerful of any of the Vaatis, his magic is like. my mans could cause a literal hurricane. and did on one occasion when pirates attacked octavo’s ship!

He’s a good person who tries his best as king but he’s an absolute stick in the mud who has no idea how to have fun. Also he sleeps for like 2 hours a week, if you saw this post it’s actually abt regent’s fucking abysmal sleep schedule. He does a good job leading his kingdom tho

Amethyst: the second incarnation of Vaati in the au! Amethyst was born very weak and sickly, often stuck in bed as a kid. Also, his brother went missing and was presumed dead when they were like, ten years old, but he was in extreme denial

tbh if you’ve seen barbie princess and the pauper this era is literally an AU of that so you’ll have a good idea of the plot. it’s a good movie. also amethyst is a massive nerd who spends even more time time studying than regent did.

Wrath: The divergence point for canon, and who the vaati on this blog is based off! Wrath grew up severely neglected... and decided the best way to deal with his trauma would be to kill his brother Octavo. This is the start of the ‘age of separation’, a period of time where the kingdom of Windhm was actually divided into the kingdom of winds on the surface, and the kingdom of rhythm beneath the surface. loyalists to the old king ran away with him underground, where they stay for a While.

Wrath takes over as king for a short period of time, but is eventually betrayed and sealed into the four sword by the captain of his royal guard. in order to preserve the cycle of reincarnation, his soul is split in half, leading to...

Vaalni: wrath’s son! a literal fucking angel who did nothing wrong but is hated by his entire kingdom for being the child of a demon. thankfully his adoptive father (the same man who sealed vaati) supports him and helps him learn to love himself. its soft.

Also, as a result of how he was born, vaalni only actually has a fragment of a soul. it develops and heals somewhat over his lifetime, but it’s never going to be fully complete until wrath comes back. this is an important plot point.

Light: Born in the midst of the age of separation, Light is a good boy who knows he’s the descendant of a demon but he doesn’t let it stop him. the kingdoms of wind and rhythm are kinda in a cold war with each other- they don’t interact but they hate each other, and vaati is very scared that meeting someone from the underground would somehow resurrect wrath

he manages to befriend the octavo of this era (who’s from the kingdom of rhythm), and together they help stop the cold war. the kingdoms still dont really interact, but they’re on much better terms. 

Reborn: Unlike Light, Reborn decides that resurrecting wrath is a Good idea and wants to take over the world! his soul finally gets recompleted at the cost of turning into a demon, but its ok the power of friendship with that era’s octavo brings him to his senses and fixes the day

after he calms down the kingdoms reunite to end the age of separation, and tbh wrath is just the weird gremlin friend who floats around the palace and likes to annoy octavo. he >:3c

Redeemed: He’s from an AU where Wrath didn’t do a murder, and also the guy in this blog’s icon. don’t ask me why i decided to make a blog for the au of an au. i just. i support him. 

redeemed is basically just a weirdo who lives in the woods in a tiny lil village, and dont worry he does see octavo again! they talk sometimes, octavo comes by to have tea. he’s king now.

Fallen: he makes me sad. he and octavo’s parents died when they were kids, and neither of them coped well! at all! this kinda culminates with octavo murdering vaati, 

fallen is just chronically depressed. he’s really sad. please give him a hug because he needs one.

Resonance: because of plot shenanigans, after fallen’s death, his spirit actually goes back in time! he pulls a zero escape time travel and is now 6 again, and lives out his life in hopes of preventing his murder. this time he practices his magic and prevents octavo from doing a crime... he becomes strong enough to stick up for himself and im proud of him

resonance is a good. he’s just trying his best. mom said it’s his turn to be the hero.

----------

anyways, that’s a tl;dr on the vaatis of twin princes au. i won’t talk abt the octavos bc my friend is the one who made them all up, but i promise ever octavo is just as good. tbh i have plenty more i could say if asked and also all of them are valid if u have questions for them on the blog, just say who it’s to!

and for fun, an old page i made while we were still developing tpau. the names on the far right are the names of the corresponding octavo in each era.

Anonymous said: Hello friend may I ask about your brush settings? Because I am in love with your colouring and line work!

Anonymous said: Your art is so cute! What brushes do you use?

Answer: i main SAI2 now, but here are the same settings when i was using them in the original SAI!! 

(i just copied my own settings in SAI2 now so they should work the same... also sometimes i use the marker tool for doodling nowadays)

Anonymous said: do you post speedpaints anywhere? i'd love to see your painting process! your art style is phenomenal hngh 

Anonymous said: Do you have a youtube channel? Just wondering, since I can't seem to find it. I'd like to watch some speedpaints or something .u.

Anonymous said: could do you a tutorial on how you color hair??? its so pretty and baffles me all the time

Anonymous said: Would you ever do a tutorial showing how you draw? I've see you post on how you color but not lineart (ps your style is super duper cute!!)

Anonymous said: Ayy ;3c hello stocky, your art is amazing ;; how is your process for color your drawings? Plz need to know! God bless you♥

Anonymous said: How do you color soooo well? Can I get some tips? ( ;n; )

Answer: i’ve sometimes done lil art streams for friends before! i could use the same capture software to make speedpaints sometime.... i’ve been considering it for a while actually! 

my process can be a lil sloppy when i try to break it down into steps for tutorials so i think the best way to show + explain is through art streams (& video process)... 

i was thinking of starting art streams on twitch in the near future too... it’s just when i’ll finally be able to get setup finally that i’d be able to set a streaming schedule

Anonymous said: I never played Megaman but I used to watch my older brother play it, and I finally started playing it because of your art too lmao (i love it)

Answer: MEGAMAN GOOD!!! im so glad you’re enjoying the series now too!!

Anonymous said: Socky, will you restock the sanic charms (the knuckles and tails link one) or make other characters?? i love them !

Answer: THANK YOU i’m glad u like em!! each time they sell out i do plan to restock them so no worries!! 👍 I AM AIMING TO MAKE MORE CHARMS OF OTHER SONIC CHARACTERS TOO they’ll come eventually when i’m able to make the designs & get them ordered!!

Anonymous said: ((whispers, this may have been asked before and I wasn't sure where to ask it, but what does "i tried my best x5" mean? is it a reference to something? ;;))

Answer: OH NO WORRIES I’LL CLEAR IT UP!! it’s in reference to a youtube user’s rp comments as “kagamine len”. i’ve seen it MANY years ago & at that time it became sorta an inside joke between me & my friends. 

later i referenced/used it as a response a few times on my len askblog to keep it going.

it’s a small lil thing i guess but i’ve sorta adopted the saying now haha
