Goals for today after sleep:
Hit up some of the WIP prompts
Maybe Danganronpa
DR is a maybe because like. I'm not a fan of how my wanting to play it and choosing to play it is getting in the way of other things I should be doing with my time.
aka my time management skills are not the greatest and I want to make sure I don't DR before things I actually should be doing. ><
DR as reward system, not as temptation.
(Tumblr is becoming the same way again, so I might be going back to limiting my time on here again. Both of these are addicting, and they're feeding into each other in a way I don't.... Well, I like it is the problem but also I don't like it, you feel?)

art tag
love a good art tag so thank you @doshiart for thinking of me <3
How did you start drawing? What year was it that you become more seriously and consciously interested in it?
uh ive been drawing all my life, i wanted to be an 'artist' when i was 6 and then it kinda went into different ideas surrounding art - tattoo artist, graphic designer, illustrator, etc etc and then i decided to pursue graphic design afer high schoo about 8 years ago? and have a degree in that now
When you felt the urge to share your art with other people? When did you start posting your drawings on social media?
i was always drawing for other people and then i started posting my fanart when i got twitter and tumblr in 2010, so it's still floating around on here
Your first/earliest drawing. What were your impressions of it back then and what are your feelings now?
Tumblr media
i was probably really proud of it and had probably never seen a giraffe at all, i was 5. there's earlier ones out there of course but this is the earliest i could find around me
Your first fanart ever
i cant find my fanart of my little pony from 2004, or my fall out boy, panic at the disco and my chemical romance stuff from 2008. i drew this of ian in 2011 though.
Tumblr media
Your first gallavich fanart
see above
When you had bad days and things didn't work out, what inspired you to keep trying?
what else was i gonna do with my life lol, im not good at maths, im not good at english, im not good at science so this was the only thing left. i dont share what i draw most of the time, no one needs to see it, so i just sketch whats around me, i scribble just to get the anxiety out. and then i come back sometimes weeks later like it never happened.
Show your old piece that you strongly dislike and tell why.
i was just getting back into the shameless fandom after being in and out since 2011 and i hadnt actually drawn them for a long time so i hate this one with a burning passion.
Tumblr media
Show your old piece that you very like and tell why. What's the difference with the previous?
this is a scanned version, it's done entirely in sharpie. i like how simple it is, just one medium, stark contrast, and yeah. difference between them is that one is digital and one is traditional, one was done after drawing them for years and the other was done after taking a break to draw for other fandoms.
Tumblr media
Show your old piece that you were very proud of back then.
Tumblr media
maybe this one from university? i made a guidebook of architecture of melbourne and i drew every building by hand, i did this maybe 4 years ago?
Do you do any practice sketches or warm-ups before you draw something big?
oh yeah - mind maps, thumbnails, hand drawn text exploration, figure sketches, writing down different values. every single one of my drawings that get posted start like this
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sketch vs Final. Show your process.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i had to redesign the blair witch movie poster
Your most recent drawing.
Tumblr media
logo ive been working on for a client - not bound by contract so i can share it with you because i dont want to share my secret santa thing lol
Give yourself some praise! Look at what improved in your art!
im glad you kept going. through all the death threats, through people selling your stuff without you knowing, through the depression. who knew you'd still be drawing for the same fandoms decades later?
Any advice you'd give to your earlier self?
stop giving a SHIT about everyone else. draw for yourself and no one else.
Set a goal for yourself for the coming year.
stop getting taken advantage of <3
im tagging @spookygingerr @ghoulish-art-tendencies

Faruk Fatih Özer stood in front of a passport control officer at Istanbul Airport, a line of impatient travelers queuing behind him. He pulled his face mask below his chin for the security camera. Surely he was nervous. The 27-year-old had unruly black hair, a boy-band face, and a patchy beard. Normally he overcompensated for his callow features by dressing in a pressed three-piece suit. But this spring day he wore black trainers and a navy-blue sweater hastily pulled over a white polo shirt, as if he had dressed in a dash. A small backpack was slung over his right shoulder. He looked like someone who could have been going on a last-minute day trip—or someone planning to never come back. At 5:57 pm on April 20, 2021, the guard stamped his Turkish passport and Özer shuffled through the crowd to Gate C, a flash drive containing a rumored $2 billion (£1.6 billion) in crypto stashed in his belongings.
After Özer’s plane reached Tirana, Albania, at 9:24 that night, he checked into the Mondial, a popular 4-star business hotel in the capital’s commercial district. A couple of days later, he looked at his social media accounts. A mob was very angry with him: Customers couldn’t access their money on the exchange Thodex, where he was founder and CEO, and people were accusing him of absconding with their funds.
Özer posted a public letter to his company’s website and his social accounts. “I feel compelled to make this statement in order to respond urgently to these allegations,” he wrote. The accusations weren’t true, he said. Thodex—which had nearly half a million investors and $500 million (£400 million) in daily trade volume—was investigating what Özer claimed was a suspected cyberattack that caused “an abnormal fluctuation in the company account.” Assets would be frozen for five days while Thodex resolved the issue. This was terribly bad timing for the big business deal he said he was en route to make: selling the company, or so he had told some employees and his brother and sister before he left. All would be made right. “There will be no victims,” he promised. “I personally declare that I will return to Turkey within a few days and ensure that the facts are revealed in cooperation with judicial authorities and that I will do my best to prevent users from suffering.” Of course, there was this possibility too: He was in the midst of pulling off the biggest heist in Turkey’s history.
Before dawn the day after Özer posted the letter, police squads fanned out across Istanbul and public prosecutors opened an investigation. Law enforcement arrested 62 people, including Thodex employees at all levels of the company—and Özer’s older brother and sister, Güven and Serap. Interpol issued a red notice, a request for law enforcement worldwide to find and “provisionally arrest” Özer pending his extradition to Turkey. Search teams deployed across Albania, Montenegro, Kosovo, and North Macedonia. There were reported sightings of the dark-haired young man across Tirana, rumors that he had gone to a poultry farm, that an executive from the Albanian football league was sheltering him. Soon, the Albanian police arrested people accused of aiding and abetting him. But no one seemed to know exactly where Özer was.
Özer had vanished at a particularly precarious time in crypto’s annals: In the weeks leading up to his disappearance, so-called rug pulls—when a cryptocurrency exchange or altcoin developer absconds with investors’ funds—had crypto investors around the globe flabbergasted. The CEO of Mirror Trading International, a crypto trading company based in South Africa, defrauded users of more than $1 billion, then skipped town; TurtleDex, an anonymous decentralized finance storage project on Binance, reportedly vanished with $2.4 million; another decentralized finance project, Meerkat, reportedly fleeced investors out of $31 million (of which they paid back 95 percent). Blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis ranked rug pulls as the primary scam of 2021, accounting for 37 percent of all cryptocurrency scam revenue that year, up from 1 percent the year before.
Thodex was at the top of that roster, and nearly every major outlet from Bloomberg to Newsweek published headlines like “Turkish Crypto Exchange Goes Bust as Founder Flees Country” and “Turkish Cryptocurrency Founder Faruk Fatih Özer Seen Fleeing Country With Suspected $2 Billion From Investors.” CoinGeek called it “the biggest scam in the digital asset industry in 2021.” The New York Times’ headline read, “Possible Cryptocurrency Fraud Is Another Blow to Turkey’s Financial Stability.” In Turkey, the country I now call home, people were reeling: For years, crypto had been built up—largely by Özer but by others too—as a way out of economic volatility. Now it seemed like just another way to lose your life savings. But something felt off to me, like the whole story wasn’t being told.

Frequently Asked Questions
Tumblr media
What are Fruits Basket Mondays?
Fruits Basket Mondays is a Fruits Basket fandom event taking place this summer!
How did this come to be?
Back when the 2019 anime was airing, episodes were released on Mondays in the US and the Fruits Basket fandom. This year’s event came to be through a conversation between the two mods & others on the Fruits Basket Discord!
Why host a fandom event now?
Since the Fruits Basket fandom is not as active as it was during the 2019 anime run, but several fans are still making content or even discovering the series for the first time, our hope is to bring the fandom together and bring more people into the fandom by showcasing fanworks that are created this summer.
Who can participate?
Anyone age 13 and up with a Tumblr or AO3 account can participate! Since some participants will be under 18, please make sure any adult content is below a cut on Tumblr, and properly rated and tagged according to AO3’s Terms of Service.
Why 13 and up?
This is the minimum age to use both AO3 and Tumblr.
How do I participate?
To participate, just post & reblog Fruits Basket content on Mondays this summer!
Which platforms can we use?
You can use any platforms, but we’ll only have an official presence on Tumblr and AO3.
Is this a fic event?
From our survey results, it seems like most participants will be sharing fanfic. However, all types of fan content is allowed! Fanart, analysis, memes, you name it!
Do I have to use the prompts?
No, those are entirely optional to use! If you do use them, please note this somewhere in your post and tag using #prompt: [prompt goes here].
Does reblogging mine or other people’s Fruits Basket content count?
Yes and no. Yes, because the point is to have a huge social media presence on Mondays this summer, and reblogging absolutely contributes to that! However, the official Tumblr will only be reblogging new content made for Fruits Basket Mondays 2024 that has been shared to Tumblr by the original creator and properly tagged.
How do I get my works reblogged?
Use our tags (#Fruits Basket Mondays, #Fruits Basket Mondays 2024, and #Fruits Basket Mondays Summer 2024). We’ll be queueing Monday posts to reblog all week!
What if my post was never reblogged?
It might not have been reblogged because you didn’t use the official tags, or it was a repost of work created before the event officially started or by someone else, or because adult content was not placed below a cut. It also may have simply been queued for later in the week. If none of those are the issue and it’s been over a week since you posted, tag us in the post or send us a quick message (or submission).
How do I get my work added to the AO3 collection?
The collection is open, so you should be able to add it yourself! If not, message us here and one of our mods should be able to add it. Use our tags (same on AO3) for best odds of having your work added to the collection!
You didn’t answer my question.
Well, our Asks are open! Drop us a line, and we’ll do our best to answer any questions that come up!

New f-yeah-weskerxchris blog!
I've noticed that the current f-yeah-weskerxchris blog has been inactive for four years, so I've decided to make a new one myself. This is mainly to not let old artwork and other fan content get lost to time and reblog some sort-of hard to find stuff. Queued reblogs will start tomorrow!
List of things I will do on this blog under the cut!⬇️
Reblogs
I will queue 6 reblogs a day every two hours between 8AM to 8PM EEST or UTC +2/3 (Depends if we're on summer or winter time) These will be somewhat oldish posts usually.
Of course I'll then reblog things I come across or remember that day.
I will tag posts with fanart, fanfic or other fan content and the original posters username (as well as content warnings of course!) Also, if there is a ship that is not chrisker in the same post I'll tag it aswell (But I will not tag chrisker as that is the entire point of the blog) And I'll tag any character that isn't Chris or Wesker.
Lastly, everyone has their preferences, so I'll try my best to reblog (and discover) content I usually wouldn't :D
Asks
You can ask me anything regarding chrisker! Be it a scene you can't find/remember what game it was in, fic suggestions (Though please do somewhat specify the kind of fics you're looking for) or artwork you can't seem to find!
(Also you can ask about the blog, of course)
Artist shout-out of the Week
Every sunday I will post a link to an artist that is on other platforms than Tumblr! (Mostly DeviantArt and Pixiv) While Pixiv reguires an account to view nsfw art, it doesn't push it in your face like way too many websites nowadays! (Can't remember about DeviantArt in that matter though)
I have around 50 of these artists on other platforms, so this will last about a year! After that I'm planning to do a writer shout-out of the week, but we'll see about that later :)
Translations
A lot of the Artist shout-outs will be on Pixiv, which is an Asian website. Of course google lens does an okay job of translating fanart, but it can be hard to understand sometimes. So, I'm willing to accept translations request through asks :D I have some very basic knowledge of Japanese and access to use more reliable translators so I'm happily willing to do the work for you :)
What to do when requesting translations:
Don't put pictures of the fanart you want translated in the ask. I do not want to reupload fanart to Tumblr and will not answer these asks.
Instead: put a link to the fanart. I will type out the translation. While this requires to switch between tabs or two monitors, I will not be reuploading old artwork (Even with credit and links
Lastly
Just have fun. This is entirely to help people discover fanart easier :)

My experience having my birthday at a Blind Channel concert (Pumpehuset, Copenhagen April 22 2024)
Better late than never here's my few cent about my (birthday) concert with Blind Channel last month :3
Me and a friend arrived at 3 pm where a cute little queue consisting of 3 Finns and 3 german people had gathered. This was where I got my first birthday song of the evening (it wouldn't be the last).
The queueing reminded me a lot of Malmö yet this time I was less surprised since I have more experience with Danish queues. (we are not very good at queueing for long periods of time especially on a monday xD) I did meet a handful of lovely people tho including a fan France, one from the Netherlands and a fellow danish fan who'd seen the band four times. One of the german fans were so kind of gifting me their VIP bag (since they'd gotten quite a few on this tour alone having early entrance/meet and greet to more or less all the shows). Despite having nothing personally to gift the fans this time this wouldn't be the last bit of merch I'd get since a fan later gifted me a homemade silk bracelet :'3
At 5.30 (aka my time of birth) the queue was starting to form. Me however decided to play Käärijä from my phone so the first song I'd hear in my 29th year would be Cha Cha Cha. The three Finns from earlier were right next to me when I sang my way through the song and they were surprised I wasn't from Finland xD. Me explaining why in the world I chose to play CCC in the middle of queuing got people to sing a second row of Happy Birthday xD
We ended up getting a pretty good spot on third row at the concert. The venue was tiny (I believe it was the small one with the capacity of 300 people) yet I was hopeful since last intimate concert I'd been to (Malmö) became one of my favourites real fast.
First band of the evening was Cold Culture from Denmark. I couldn't unsee the resemblance between Mads the frontman and Bojan (you may have seen my other post about this x'D). So I was sorta stalking him with my camera the whole set and the one time I didn't, he reached out to hold my hand (just like Bojan x'D). I didn't get the same stomach churning awe as with Bojan however but it was still a magical moment :'D. The band were really good and I have been pretty hooked on their sound since pretty much one half of a song played that evening.
Next band was Rock Band From Hell that - unfortunately given their name - is not really from Hell but are from Finland xD. Another pleasant surprise and once again a band where I felt drawn to the frontman but this time because his fit was the perfect mixture of nostalgia (think 2004/American Idiot Green Day) and gender envy (fishnets and coloured hair included) for me. The songs too were heavily influenced by 2000s pop punk which is just up my alley so I had a blast. My friend caught a guitar pick from Frontman Jani and then gave it to me as a birthday gift which I am more than grateful for :'D <3
Blind Channel got on stage around 10 pm and their set too was a lot of fun. I had made a sign basically stating it was indeed my birthday (as it turned out I was the only one there with a sign OVO) which I put up after the third song. Joel noticed and then lead the audience through a round of happy birthday (I had honestly no idea what I'd expected to happen with the sign so this was a pleasant surprise). At one point the band started requesting for moshpits which was a bit of a disaster given half of us were not into it (think closer to the Joker Out crowd in terms of overwhelmingly being girls and gays present) and the other half trying way too hard to make up for it. When the band realised that this wouldn't work they instead started a circle pit and that felt more right (I was in it and Mads from CC was too). It took me almost the entire circle pit to realise Joel had place himself in the middle of our pit and stood there unbothered singning x'D.
When the circle pit stopped I found myself having lost my good spot at the front and where now closer to the back. It didn't matter too much given the tiny size of the venue so I could still see just fine. The danish flag got on stage during the Dark Side encore which felt really good experiencing actually seeing my own flag being tossed around at one of these concerts (I am so used to it being Swedish, German or Finnish flags now x'D).
After half-heartedly attempting to get a pick, drumstick or setlist after the concert (spoilers: I didn't get either) I went to the merch stand where I got to talk to Jani and Jere from RBFH (frontman and guitarist) and knowing me of course I ended up venting about Finland and Käärijä for half a minute xD they were really nice tho and I bought their album ^V^
Then I went to chat with Cold Culture and got pictures with almost the whole band (keyboardist Andy had to get home since he lived 4-5 hours away). the guys were more than a little excited learning that it was my birthday. They sung Happy Birthday to me at least twice and drummer Andy (there are two with the same name but pronounced differently to make the confusion even bigger x'D) were especially excited about my flag cape (I had a flag with arms on the entire evening x'D) so he got to wear it and I almost just gifted it to him then and there :'D.
Having spoken to CC for a while (I can confidently say Mads also has a personality that resembles Bojan) a merch person got out with a shirt that had a minor defect that they couldn't sell. Turned out that would be my last accidental birthday gift x'D.
After a while we got hushed out by security yet gathered around the venue to talk/digest about the concert. Standing close to the bus we got to say hi to quite a few of the members from Blind Channel including guitarist Joonas (the fan from France got a photo with him) and Joel (he remembered me as the person with the birthday so he said happy birthday again :D <3).
Around 2-3 am (so 12 hours after arriving x'D) we said our goodbyes and me and my friend went home to my mother's house were we were staying. I got like 3 hours of sleep that night and a sore throat but it was definitely worth it given the amount of experiences we got this one night. Definitely in my top 5 if not top 3 of recent concerts although personally I'd say Käärijä in Berlin and Joker Out in Malmö is still a bit higher for me personally even considering the amount of little blessings from this evening :'D

Is it possible you can recommend some ianthony fanfics?
Also I want to know your fave ianthony stories 🤭
psssst, disclaimer…
Of Course! We can't forget about some good fanfics! I haven't read any recently so I may make an updated post a while later after I've read some newer ones and give them shout outs. For now, however, I'll only be focusing on some older classics. I also haven't read some of these in a loooonnnggg time so a few may not be as great as I remember them being. Just keep that in mind moving forward! These are in no particular order!
Brilliant Blood, Beautiful Bones
Warnings: Possible sexual themes. I can't remember lol This fic is one of my absolute favorites. It reminds of me of something like Detroit: Become Human, but this was written before that game came out. I actually recommend anything Patricia has written, but this one is my favorite by her!
New You
Warnings: Sexual themes Unfortunately, this story is incomplete and is only three chapters long. I'm still upset about it, but those three chapters are SO GOOD that I can't help but recommend them. The premise isn't new but it's done in such a unique way that it feels new. I wish the author would come back and finish it, but it is what it is.
Soulmates
Warnings: Possible smut or sexual themes... I can't really remember again... I am such a sucker for soulmate AU's and this one is the standard I judge all other soulmate fanfics I read. It's so perfect on every level. It's fluffy, angsty, bittersweet, everything. I cannot recommend it enough.
#YOLO
I know, the title is extremely dated and doesn't seem like it would be something good, but trust me it's more than the title! It's a oneshot where Anthony buys a motorcycle and Ian's afraid of it. In order to help him get over his fear, Anthony takes him on a ride and he ends up enjoying it. Trust me, guys! It's worth reading.
The Summer to Remember
Warnings: Maybe Smut? I honestly can't remember if there is or not... YET AGAIN This is one of my favorite chaptered stories. It documents Ian and Anthony going on a cross-country road trip over a summer. It seems simple enough, but pesky feelings get in the way and make things complicated. Just describing it makes me want to reread it. I love it. This was written by a fan-favorite author, Grace. Another one of her fics show up in this list, but that's for later...
Kama Sutra
Warnings: Explicit Sexual Content If the title wasn't obvious, this is an extremely NSFW work. I had to throw one in there, guys. This is a little silly at first, but the dynamic they portray here is great and ends up being pretty hot and wholesome. If you're over 18 and like smut like I do, it's worth checking out!
Gone
Warnings: Depictions of depression and non-descriptive suicide This would not be a fanfic list without Gone. This fanfic is the most infamous work in the entire Ianthony fandom. I remember back in the day that the tag was flooded with people love-hating this fic for months. It's extremely well written and hooks you in, but it's absolutely heartbreaking and will steal your soul. The author, Grace, actually reached out to me at the time and thanked me for making her fic so anti-popular. I haven't spoken to her since and her accounts are all inactive, unfortantly. If by any chance she's reading this, I'm sending well wishes and much love to you!
That's all I have for you guys right now. I have some new stories queued up, but I'm obsessed with Stony right now and have been for months... I seriously cannot get enough of those two even four years after they kicked the bucket. However, I promise I'll get to them! When I do, I'll be sure to come back and make a rec post. For now, I hope you and others can enjoy some of the classics! I also have written a few if you'd be interested in checking them out!

Watched the NCT Dream 7th anniversary video (7 to 7)
They finally changed their seating arrangement! Not that the usual one is BAD but like, some variation is nice.
Jeno: After seven years, we still talk over each other.
The kimchi stew fight was memorable to Haechan ^^;; Affection to him is fighting I guess lol.
Teddy on Jisung's shoulder :3
Tumblr media
Renjun and Haechan had a huge fist fight where their clothes were all torn and then they made up on the spot all within 15 minutes X'D That's so freaking dramatic what the heck.
Chenle dropping the bomb that he and Jeno fought and Jeno being like "...we did?" Flashback to when Chenle said he and Jisung had an argument and Jisung was like "...that was an argument?" Chenle being dramatic.
So Dream's infrequent fights start because of jokes eh. I'm reminded of how GOT7's fights are often because of food ^^;; I guess every group has its quirks.
Jaemin @ Haechan: Get the order right, YOU got covid first, and then I did.
I wonder why Jaemin was in the VCR and not Haechan though. I guess it was filmed when Haechan had covid but Jaemin hasn't gotten it yet?
Wow we're finally hearing about the scavenger hunt lol. So the guys went to a vacation home but Renjun was worried they'd find it boring so he set up an entire scavenger hunt at his own expense, and then went to Mark to tell him about it because Mark was leader XD
Jisung: It was fun :3
All of them remembering 7llin' in our Youth >w<
Jisung crying every day for the last three concerts ToT A sensitive boi.
Mark was like this the entire time Renjun was telling his story about hitting his head ToT
Tumblr media
Jisung got hurt trying to kick Chenle's ass and they're still talking about it years later ToT
Omg they LIED about it and said that Jisung got hurt practising XD
I'm not even half way through the video but they have so many memories...they spent a lot of time together huh. Like athletes, celebrities also experience the highest of highs and lowest of lows. The highs are great but the lows are inevitable and it's nice that they have each other to rely on ;_;
Oh man I do the same thing when I get excited or very happy, I do the kitty paws thing and just shake my paws a lot.
Tumblr media
Chenle telling the fans to be their stars and then them looking up and seeing the moon...Jisung really is such a romantic.
Is that Chenle's assigned kaomoji?
Tumblr media
Chenle being nosy
"Jisung still isn't done yet." "HE ONLY WROTE TWO LINES"
Jisung and Haechan have known each other for 10 years ToT
After the other guys come back Jisung is STILL writing. He has a lot of feelings okay ToT
Mark wanted to write a letter back to the him that would have been graduating ToT
Wait whose decision was it to put on the music while Renjun read his letter ToT
They found out they'd be back to 7Dream during Ridin'???
Jeno had a lot of worries while Mark was gone...like the guys obviously tease Mark a lot, but it shows how each member is so important to the group T_T Yeah I totally buy into the 7Dream stuff TAT
"Don't lose the friendship ring." As I'm writing this (weeks ago when I would have queued this post) I just spilled like a quarter of the expensive peach juice I bought and I've been feeling glum about it...this makes me feel a little better because at least I didn't lose the expensive ring that is a representation of my friendship XD
Is Jeno controlling the music??? I can't see clearly.
Haechan kept getting interrupted ToT I can't tell if it was an accident or if they're actually clowning him on purpose ToT
Jaemin's message as always....好行啊!! XD Just focuses on the fans without saying too much about himself.
Renjun would've cried if there was a fire...also sensitive boi.
Mark sooo pleased with Chenle's casual message :P
Tumblr media
Jisung's message is so direct :P He writes it like it's a mystery to be solved.
Pretty sure kyuu pose has nothing to do with 7, they just like the kyuu pose lol
Tumblr media
YES they all called out Jisung for always skipping out on doing kyuu pose lol. He's in his rebellious phase and doesn't want to be cute.
Haechan: If we catch you not doing it again, we'll shave your hair
I don't know when this started but I think Haechan made this threat during the Finding U-jeong videos too XD
Jaemin: We will sue you (for not doing the kyuu pose) XD
Yep, Jisung wants to be cool instead of cringe lol
Jaemin: You (Mark) always talk about growing old
It's because Mark is a sap!!! He's a romantic too. He's sooo emotional about the Dreamies.
The camera and printer are kind of cool though.
So Jaemin started the Dream trend of ultra-close ups :3
My Jaemren :3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
They all ended up wearing their rings on that day :3 Renjun the group glue is so happy. He even got them to take a photo with all their ringed hands :3
They really are just kids hanging out ;_;
Tumblr media
Chenle: 我做的好不好?
Renjun: 做的好
Other Dreamies: *Trying to copy them*
Oh man...Dream's story is so touching, that's how they got me v.v

2023 blog update !
Sooo happy new year everyone, and let's get into the thick of it, because I have a lot of words to spew out from my little tired brain ( i swear i started writing this at 4am, how's it past 6 already ? ). Beware long post...
I'm ditching the "sonic fandom" categorizing tag, most of my blog is sonic stuff so it doesn't really matter ( i'll change out the old tag on my old posts later when i remember... )
I wanted to change my url, cause i don't like what it stands for now, but it's what I'm credited as in the SWA zine and i don't wanna inconvenience them this late in the thing, so I'm gonna keep it for the time being. Maybe in a few months I'll change it ?
I kinda hate tagging my posts so i think i'm gonna stop using most of my tags when i'm reblogging, just doing my regular comments instead and content warnings if it needs it ( don't forget you can always ask to tag ! ), and of course, the reblog tag stays.
This doesn't mean I'm ditching the categorizing tags entirely though. I'm gonna try something. At every end of the month I'll go into the mass post editor and just correctly tag everything. ( I might still tag characters and fandoms the regular way for non-sonic stuff ).
I might reblog a little less. Or at least try to. The amount of stuff I usually reblog kind of overwhelms me ( sideblog will not be affected as it's a lot less pressure ).
I have a lot saved up in my likes tab that i still need to get to reblogging... might be time to revive the 'queued' tag ?
I'm still gonna be serial-replying, sorry... It's just less stress for me.
In terms of resolutions... I wanna post more art ! I basically stopped entirely in the later half of 2022 cause of ID anxiety and that's no good, art is what i made this blog for ! I also still haven't introduced you guys to my AU and I was supposed to do that in, like, June 2022... So I'm gonna do that. Lemme know what format you think I should post the 24 ( and more ) images in ? ^^;
Maybe I could post my long rambles and weird ""essays"" ( heavy quotations because those are basically liveblogging of my current thoughts ), if you guys would like to see that. A lot of questioning logic, lore, headcanons and theories. Stuff like that.
I want to interact more with the fandom ! Provide actual content ! Be active, be friends, y'know. Do the club activities and all that jazz. Art challenges, redraws, collabs, whiteboards, dtiys... I wanna be part of the cool/uncool kids and have fun while doing it !
I'm gonna go through sideblog-exclusive stuff below the cut since I'm sure most of y'all don't care about that. I only have 3 or 4 followers on there since I've only ever shared it with friends, so you probably don't even know it exists.
Alright so for ekana-to-hana.
It's basically gonna stay the same
I haven't been drawing my sonas and their universe a lot, so sorry about no new original art... I'm gonna try to draw them more !
All this time I've been just reblogging random stuff, but I think I'm gonna start sharing the things I like. Of course those posts won't get any more than 3 notes unless people actually like what i care about ( plants, fashion, ultra-specific aesthetics, various potential craft hobbies ), but hey whatever.
So in short, more original posts.
I might ( emphasis on 'might' ) start posting personal life updates like, i dunno, plant pics, merch if i get some, ramblings about life and shit.
Unlike my main blog, tagging remains unchanged, since i have way less to organize ( no characters and fandom tags ).
I should sort out my organizing tags for personal clarity tho.
Maybe I'll do some OC+fandom art, to promote the account ? But honestly I wouldn't really count on it.
And that's all folks.

PSA for new tumblr users!
there's plenty of posts like this going around, but one more can't hurt lmao
Tumblr is NOT like Instagram or Twitter or TikTok! Likes don't do SHIT here. There is no algorithm, no fyp.
If you enjoy a post, REBLOG!!!
Reblogging a post helps it gain traction, plus you can leave private comments in the tags that only op and the person you reblogged from will see.
This is ESPECIALLY important for art and fic!!! Reblogging supports the artist/writer, and i can guarantee you that any little comment you put in tags will make their day.
Also, unlike a lot of other social media, tumblr posts have no "expiration date". It's common for old posts to randomly resurface and be mass-reblogged by people. It's also fairly common to go through someone's blog and spam-reblog (some people don't like this, and will say so in their bio or pinned post. usually tho, you can assume spam-reblogging will only bring a smile to someone's face). It's also common to reblog a post multiple times in a row!
Also, reblogging =/= reposting! Reblogging still gives op the traction and notes, unlike (as i've heard anyway, i don't use twt) quote-retweets. When an artist says "don't repost", they mean don't save the image and share it in an entirely new post of your own.
Next topic! Tags. Tags in a post itself won't do anything. Use the tumblr tags for it! Tumblr tags also let you make comments in a sort of "whisper voice", and sometimes someone will see your tags and find them funny enough to screenshot and put in a reblog. This is colloquially known as being peer reviewed, and is both a blessing and a curse. People can also see who you reblogged from, and sometimes will reblog from that person instead if there's "unnecessary comments" in a reblog, such as an @ or an in-joke with a mutual.
If you don't reblog anything, people will tend to assume you're a bot and block you on sight. This site has a history of pornbots who will like a post on someone's blog and thus create a connection for google searches. Most people don't want that connection, and thus block empty blogs. Having a profile picture and a blog title/bio will help prevent this, but even with your likes public an empty blog will often get blocked on sight.
Speaking of public likes! They're useless. Mostly, likes are used to save posts for later, such as a recipe you want to look back on, or a video you couldn't watch while in public, or something you couldn't reblog because you hit your post limit. Tumblr's post limit is iirc about 200 posts a day (incl reblogs), so go ham! If your post limit has been hit, you can always queue things up for later. In your blog settings you can find your queue, and adjust how often and when it'll post. You can have up to 1000 posts queued, so when i say go ham i MEAN go ham.
TL;DR always REBLOG rather than LIKE, and use TAGS to comment!

The holiday you wouldn’t read about… after Dante’s Divine Comedy
I know it has been almost five years since we last blogged. In fact, I never even finished the series that I was writing. It’s not even that there has nothing blogworthy. It seems the pandemic just threw a crown-shaped spanner in the works of everyday life, and broke a five-year habit.
To recap:
1. We got back from France in mid-March 2020 and a couple of days later went into lockdown.
2. In the summer of 2020, we did a two day fell pony trek through the Lake District, camping overnight in a high field overlooking Lake Windermere. Also, I grew a regrettable lockdown moustache / soul patch combo.
Tumblr media
3. Throughout 2020 and 2021 we saw a load more of the UK once we were allowed to - Cornwall, Devon, the south coast, the Midlands, more of Wales, Manchester.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. In 2022, Tom’s sister Donna visited. We visited all of the usual sites and then Paris for the first time. Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II passed away while we were in Paris. Donna and Tom attended the Queen’s lying in state, queued for hours and ended up sleeping at London Paddington station after missing the last train.
Tumblr media
5. In May 2023, we woke to find that our lovely Judy had passed away after a gradual decline into senility. We were all distraught.
Tumblr media
6. In September 2023, my parents, aunty and uncle came. We did all the usual sites and we went to Edinburgh. We stayed in an epic apartment with a view of the castle from the bedroom, then a panoramic view of the entire city from the dining room. We saw the decommissioned royal yacht, the amazing Kelpies and even visited Perth.
Tumblr media
7. Edie never really recovered from losing Jude and, following a few bouts of illness and fits, by April this year we made the tough call to put her down.
Tumblr media
8. In amongst losing Edie, Tom has been back forth to the USA for the installation of a sculpture he’s been project managing over the last five years.
It has been the hardest time adjusting to life without our girls… after all, they were on this 9087 mile journey too. It has given a little bit more freedom to holiday, because we don’t need to find a dog-sitter or look for dog-friendly accommodation.
Which brings us back to the present - just over ten years since this journey began. Speaking of presents, as a birthday gift in June, Tom got tickets for us to go to Il Giardino die Tarocchi, a sculpture park by the renowned French-American artist Niki de Saint Phalle. It is at the bottom of Tuscany, so he also booked EasyJet tickets to the closest airport (Pisa).
It took us forever to plan out an itinerary, but it ended up quite simple:
Friday: Fly into Pisa mid-morning. See the sights and stay the night.
Saturday: Pick up a hire car and drive down to Capalbio (where the Giardino is). Drive to Siena, drop off the hire car and stay the night.
Sunday: Catch the train to Florence. Stay two nights.
Tuesday: Train back to Pisa Airport and home again.
That was the plan anyway… of course, it wouldn’t be a 9087 Miles adventure without a few hiccups. I’ve named this blog series after one of Dante Alighieri’s well-known epics, because he is a notable Tuscan export. In his Divina Commedia (The Divine Comedy), the main character travels through hell, purgatory and finally heaven. That should give a taste of what is to come, and sets up the three posts to follow; Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradiso.
I leave you at the end of this introduction with a quote from the first of three parts in Divina Commedia, written on the gates of Hell (Inferno):
“Abandon all hope, ye who enter here”.

man. today has been, something. started off by queuing up some TMR songs. that was. fun. ended up searching for the SEED song lyrics in an attempt to karaoke like the old days. and ended up stumbling upon the name of an old LJ friend in the translation credits, ah,hahahahaa...hah. (;_; )
somehow or other i next decided to check if 平川地一丁目 was on spotify and uh, gee, two separate artist pages. "Hirakawachiitchome" and "Hirakawachi 1Chome"... weird. one had their early stuff, the other was 3 2020's releases... i d k. made a playlist because i still do not fully comprehend HOW TF to use this godawful app. soon enough noticed how tHE ONE. WHOLE. UNAVAILABLE SONG. 「君のくつ」 i immediately recognised the title it was one of the FIRST I EVER HEARD, and thus SURELY the MOST nostalgic and... goddamn.
cue an attempt to listen to it ELSEWHERE? youtube just showed me. a cover. o-ohhh but it WAS, *VERY* nostalgic!!! but NOT THEM. so, i tried another site. it was a *japanese* lyrics site. it actually had a link. to a youtube video. region block. of. course. ........so, my DUMB ASS has just never bothered with a vpn in all these years (used to use proxies on occasion, but...) —so i did not have one handy!! but after NOT TOO MUCH STRUGGLE, i found a jp one (and the site actually seemed familiar? h-huh...) AND GOT IT TO WORK
youtube
AND LISTENED TO THE SONG!!! HELL YEAH, NOSTALGIA
....and then the eventual emotional crash. sigh.
i didn't even listen to the pl yet or discover any other songs i used to know, great! and nvm the idea to try to d/l the song cos even tho i HAD it, who knows, now? but ofc MY vpn didn't do jack shit for the mp3 converter websites accessing it from hell knows where. and again. i'm too dumb, to solve, these fucking issues!!
...
so then there was yesterday's shit. the power got shut off by 11am, curtailing my original plans for TMR. unable to even do chores, and lacking ANY offline activities or crafts in this hellhole, i ended up... reading —INITIALLY ONE. and then, ONE BY ONE— ALL, of my, ancient ass, OC writings. the ones i made like a single file each for, thought about in bed for days/weeks until the next ""idée fixe"" took over, but then eventually neglected in favour of my "top 3"...
well there was ACTUALLY some good/cute stuff. a LOT of cringe stuff. shameless asides laughing at my own cringe-but-free writing ability. peppered here & there with many an ancient ass meme phrase i hadn't heard in a decade+
and ofc, far too much, incomplete scenes, suddenly stopped, SOMETIMES NOTED with, "i'll write that later" and then i never. did. (and yet i KNOW there were more scenes??? so it was. thought up in bed. and never typed up....) (;_; )
well that was FUN. ...until the crash. from the high. and the power was still off ofc. *power eventually paid & resolved by 7pm* BUT. the damage was already done.
brain now overloaded with "freshly unearthed" thoughts about ALL of my OCs, not just my top 3 stories.... oh, god.
a-and THEN i started wondering how they looked? i.e. my pathetic maplestory sprites created in bannedstory (rip in pieces)
and so i. eventually dug into my dropbox. o-oh god. SOME ARE. SOOOOOOOOCUTE. SOME ARE. SO ugly. l-lol. cry. "they'll look better when i finally draw them! these are just design drafts!" .......CRYYYYYY.
and NOW i'm plagued by thoughts of posting them, but even MORE tormented by:
a.) not being to edit or adjust any!!! fucking pixels!! on ipad!!
b.) even CROPPING the massive "collages" is a HUGE PAIN on the ipad???
c.) there are multiple versions, across different images, made at different times— and SOME charas look better in one, while others look better in another?!? MORE CUT PASTE CROP EDIT HELL
...nvm all these .bsproj files that can no longer be accessed or loaded up and edited and.... cries. GOD I BET EVEN IF ANY SUCCESSOR APP TRIED TO IMPLEMENT THEM, THEY'D LACK THE ABILITY TO READ THE COLOUR ADJUSTMENTS I TOOK ENTIRELY TOO MUCH ADVANTAGE OF a-and then if i loaded 'em up. HORRID, AWFUL ORANGE HAIR THAT I HAD DESATURATED TO SOME SEMBLANCE OF "SILVER", OR GREEN EYES HUE SHIFTED TO TEAL OR, OR, OR—

Hello everyone,
It’s been a while since I’ve posted. I left tumblr entirely for a good long while after my dad died, and that was largely in part to the lack of comfort I expected to find from those I had thought of as friends here. The only person who contacted me did so anonymously, and I sincerely thank them for their care and light in a time when I was struggling to even breathe. You are kind, and good, and I dearly hope that the world treats you the same kindness and goodness in return tenfold.
Since then, the hits haven’t stopped coming: I’ve lost three family members in as many years, and it’s left me struggling to understand my place in my family; someone I considered a close friend intentionally conspired behind my back to turn other friends against me (thankfully, unsuccessfully), which has led me to reevaluate the trust I put in my relationships with others; the career that I have worked towards and in for almost a decade now is now one I have to leave, because collegiate academia has no intention of allowing its faculty to grow past the bounds of the working poor, and I am more likely to be shot in an American school than I am in the US military.
I returned to the beloathed hellsite about a year ago, pretty passively, if not to engage with anyone than to at least glean the small amount of dopamine from the fandoms I enjoy, pretty pictures of high fashion runways of clothes I can never afford, and distant vistas I can no longer travel to. I threw posts into Drafts to later be Queued. And it has certainly helped. But it has reminded me of what did not in those weeks after Dad, when all I needed was just a kind word or notification, some indication that these connections I’ve cultivated, some for over a decade, were caring and concerned and safe - and the only notes I received on my post weren’t condolences from mutuals, but likes from pornbots.
Seriously. The pornbots outdid y’all.
So I’m clearing my mutuals. Any Drafted posts will be reblogged still, but there won’t be any further engagement. I wish y’all the best in your lives, even if y’all didn’t care about mine.
To anyone else who follows me: hello, I’ve come home.
