i will take nothing from wolverine's exoticized adventures in japan save for the idea that (1) it'd be fun to put claremont era x-men in prime torino and nana era, and (2) wolverine is one of torino's exes

the thing about eating in public is that sometimes you get to hear an ominous exchange between mother and child that goes “all gone?” from the baby (sitting in a high chair) and the mother says peaceably “all gone” and the baby has an existential crisis in that instant and starts shrieking. yes. me too, tiny baby.

Shih Tzus of antiquity possessed powerful empathic magic that allowed them to understand and react to the moods of their owners. Additionally, they had powers of suggestion that allowed them to influence humans; this was generally used for good (such as soothing sadness) but was often used to mischievous ends too (getting food from the table).

Modern Shih Tzus are a mix of old stock and Pekingese. To that end, their telepathic powers have been lessened but they have gained camouflage. The resulting breed is notoriously quiet and resistant to training!

A world where humans have no innate magic but our pets do.

Cat magic is pretty raw and they mainly use it for getting into places they’re not supposed to. They can be trained if you’re patient, and will sometimes do favours for their owners out if the blue, but only if they want to.

Dogs have been bred for specific magic over the centuries and each breed can do certain things. Showing off your magic is an essential part of a dog show.

Horses come in horse, pegasus, and unicorn, each with their own magical talents.

Fuck knows what birds can do, I don’t trust birds.

the way i want to shake my students by the shoulders. madam you have received a month's worth of extensions due to your genuinely harrowing personal issues. the least you can do is not give me a paper that's like half-dedicated to marketing the Mexican Immigrant™️in terms of their bringing, and i quote, "special customs, yummy foods, fun music, pretty art, and different ideas about the world" into "our communities"

on a different unrelated note, the breakdown for boygenius’s “Not Strong Enough” where they repeat the phrase ‘always an angel, never a god’ would work so well for One for All, I am once again compelled to do a little animatic, just for that part

Notebook #16! I technically finished this late, late into January 1. It's a Moleskine. Not sure how many pages are in here, considering I had to tear a few out...

[Left] Anachronism doodles! I love it when they switch costumes...

[Right] Doodles of my first full* D&D campaign. *Soon dropped as the GM admitted they weren't very into Norse mythology anymore. Now we're playing the equivalent of Monster Hunter!

//

Warframe gets its own full-size framing because it did, regrettably, eat up most of my attention in 2024. That's what moving on in the main questline does to you.

//

[Left] My Hero Academia might have ended in August, but the Torino-posting lives on!!

[Right] Assorted doodles from October.

//

[Left] My grandmother got into--I don't actually know if this counts as scrapbooking, but she IS VERY INVESTED in it, to the point of hoarding lots of stickers and such. I had to house-sit for her, and it was the day-after elections, so. Yeah.

[Right] It really took until issue 147 for me to perk up and go, "Oh, this is GOOD," with Claremont X-Men... The animal and the element... ah, and also, Amanda Sefton's little Nightcrawler doll was cute.

[Left] Snapshot of what I did for fun over winter break! I hung out with friends in Irvine, realized that I am getting too old to sleep on a thinly-carpeted floor, and indulged A LOT by buying myself a 2XL denim jacket + back to back Escape Room games. Man, those are fun.

[Right] This last page is just an example of what I was frantically filling the notebook with so I could start a new one for 2025. Everything--EVERYTHING was referenced off various tumblr posts.

huge fan of black myth: wukong if only because you the protagonist are going on what you think will be a lonely hero's journey, you the blank slate whose last joke was pretending to be a peach about to be eaten, but for like a majority of the journey to the end you get uncle pigsy. and uncle pigsy (infamous pervert character) looks like this:

and his backstory cutscene? hello???
