But you had to come along, didn’t you?

Tear down the door

Throw open windows

Oh if you knew just what a fool you have made me

Any Sport in a Storm is probably my favorite ToH episode and I couldn’t deny myself making a little doodle for it. I love how it highlights the intersection and similarities between Willow and Hunter’s development, as well as just being a solid episode on its own. We get Willow standing up to her former professor’s gross bias against her choosing to play to her strengths, poor Hunter being terrible at peer-aged social interaction, protective and supportive best friend Gus, more Viney and Puddles, an introduction to Dadrius (very important lol), and “Ice pack for Steve 👍”. And then Lumity having a little mini adventure chasing down, what I assume, was the answer to a decently large fandom theory. And then, of course, this marks the relatively gentle beginning of Hunter’s, I’m gonna call it, redemption and awakening arc before the poor kid gets his shit absolutely r o c k e d by Hollow Mind.

Also, for clarification, I don’t necessarily consider this the true beginning of Huntlow as a ship in my book. A lot like how I view Zutara from aatla, I don’t think Huntlow truly works as a ship until later. This definitely marks the beginning of their friendship, but I don’t think that necessarily evolved into anything more until probably while the Hexsquad were stuck in the human realm. Maaayybbeee there’s a bit in the time between Labyrinth Runners to Clouds on the Horizon, depending on how you wanna imagine that blank time between the Hexside Incident and the Day of Unity, but that leaks over into fanfic and fan theory territory.

everything is the same except Odile is the one looping

oh. heheheheh. muahahahaha. hold on *digs through my pile of disorganized sketches*

Odile loops au; a sketch compilation!!

Some old fic drabbles + associated sketches under cut (a6 secret spoilers):

hc: Since equipment carries over, as long as Odile uses her book in a fight, she can write down notes and have it carry over loops

toxic doomed yuri (for a more fleshed out fic I highly recommend The Sweetest Thing by soreimoon, it's amazing)

between genshin, hsr, and zzz, i have to say i have a lot of enjoyment and high hopes for zzz.

the team working for zzz are just amazing in my eyes (which sounds crazy especially since they're all hyv games). for one, i think so far they follow through with almost everything that they've promised. making the game having a 'low floor, high ceiling' and therefore isn't just a pure powercreep gacha game (looking at you hsr). all the gameplay promises with timelines they would say in dev notes (like getting players to be able to use different characters in the map by 1.4). literally giving us options to enjoy the contents through two different modes because half of the player base dislikes a certain mode of the game (therefore doubling the effort of the dev team to work on, which is still so crazy to me that they're actually taking this approach)...

of course all of them has their pros and cons in my eyes. for example, i am very much not a fan of zzz's blatant gooner bait, among other peeves. but something about having the developers listening closely to our feedback since the very start of the game and visibly making changes to the actual game itself accordingly is just so nice.

anyway. i'm going to go view more rooms. have a good weekend, all of you!

mimic aside, wouldn't it make sense that cassie and gregory are pretty close?? maybe i'm wrong/overthinking it, but cassie was willing to go through ALL of that just for "gregory." she even shut down her favorite animatronic because he was begging her to save him. idk about yall, but personally i don't think two random kids would do that for each other. this being said please explore the cassie and gregory dynamic more because theyre my pooklet oinkly sprinkles

follows a man raised by his mother to kill his father, a god-like cult leader

but as an adult he puts aside his life of violence and moves to the city for a quiet life

and a support group for those with divine heritage that becomes increasingly revolutionary, until the task he was made for reemerges and his life upends

baby guild :)

aka the timber scouts! they're basically just a bunch of kids in a sort of guild prep-course. so, not a real full official guild, but functions like one. all the kids have different woodland animal gimmicks to go with the scout vibe. They have a very loose shared uniform too, they're pretty much allowed to customize however they want as long as they keep the white button-up, brown outerwear, dark brown bottoms, and brown boots. also like a lot of kids in other guilds, their weapons are toys or otherwise "safter" items. But that's pretty much all! They aren't super deep characters, but more general info still under the cut :p

on today's episode of 'acaica's background thoughts for the dess raises kris au': okay but lets be serious do dess and chara actually stay together in the end--

Think the twins don't even care about Tricks because bandits dying is not all that concerning and I think people assumed "that little dog of Jack's" died with him.

I think Tricks only becomes a hassle sometime later on. But no one can seem to find him... Lilith keeps dealing with vandalization and her already small crew getting picked off ("It's like a professional is hitting us. I... I think I know who it is") and, I think, just because he can he fucks with streams/the towers. He's got so much hate in his body.

Oh, and Jack's shield. Now you see him, now you don't, and now a corrosive bullets lodged in the worst spot it could be. Killing you agonizingly slow! If he doesn't shoot again and... oh. He did already

The worst part about being away for two weeks (day 3/14 btw) is…… besties I’m still only on lvl 96 ish msq. There’s gonna be updates and new content and I’m gonna just be hangin out treading water chewing on what I do know and trying not to click too many ‘show spoiler’ buttons cos it’s like a toss up on if I’ve seen I yet in game or nah 😵‍💫💦 (tho I appreciate everyone still tagging for dawntrail…. Big dotes n petal showers etc)

i genuinely kept forgetting to post these

i'm pretty burnt out on drawing, so i decided to end the cringetober challenge. as much as i would like to complete it, i would die

day 16 (objecthead) day 15/18 (song lyrics/old art redraw)

i got through halfway the month, which is honestly still a win for me.

look here for a cropped version of the redraw, and the original picture

yesterday, i learned that one of my acquaintances from church is like, gleefully and unreservedly supportive of the gazan genocide despite going to a church where every sermon for the past few weeks has been about the horrors and tragedy of said genocide. like, i could not fucking believe how hilarious he seemed to think it is that innocent palestinians are dying, just grinning and laughing and shaking his head and rolling his eyes when my pastor and i expressed horror at the innocent people being killed. just remembering it makes me choke up with anger.

anyway, i'm going to be very stupid and try to talk to him about it this coming sunday. i'll use all my teacherly tricks to try and gently lead him to feel one single scrap of empathy for the victims of israel's civilian massacre, but lbr: he'll probably respond with the same amount of glee and condescension as last night and it's going to end with me making me a scene at church.

but i know i shouldn't. so here are some things i should NOT say, no matter how angry he makes me:

i've always hated the sound of your voice, even before you said such horrible things. you say everything with such condescension. when you read the gospels in church, i have to hide my face behind my program to hide my grimacing. you make the words of christ himself sound like a grift of some oily used car dealer who thinks he's smarter than he actually is. i pity you for going through life with such a voice, and pity you even more for thinking it charming.

it baffles me that you'd allow something as basically human as compassion for the suffering of others to be so utterly sanded away by propaganda. it's pathetic that you could laugh at innocents dying. you've let yourself be lobotomized by a clumsy surgeon and style yourself wise with the icepick still sticking from your skull.

i've always thought your face looks like an easter island head sculpted from a raw chicken breast.

see? none of those would be productive, no matter how truly they express my feelings about this person.

thus: people of faith, pray that god grants me the wisdom and restraint to not light this motherfucker up in the middle of coffee hour. amen.

I can't stop thinking about how often I'll go "oh look a fandom I would like to make this my online identity" and then not care about that thing at all outside of the time that I am actively consuming it (doesn't mean I don't enjoy it ofc) and then other times I'm like "oh look a fun silly little thing to kill time" and THAT becomes my online identity like I literally do not think it's EVER been the other way around.
