Not a ship post

Wish Rolfe and Mitzi got more interactions together. It just be highschooler and man who peaked in high school. I imagine Rolfe likes to hear about all the classic high school drama and Mitzi likes him for being as much as gossip queen as her

desperately trying to remember the graphic part of graphic design (full drawing below cut!)

introducing my pop disaster, Marnie Williams Daydream! she's upbeat and cheery on stage but a nervous wreck behind the scenes, pining after her manager and wishing things could go back to how they used to be with her ex-best-friend... oh honey, you've got a big storm coming.

this was meant to just be a quick sketch to unwind so I started out using a base by @/albanenechi but then decided I wanted to change what the arms and feetsies were doing :3 then I realised that the sketch was actually pretty good already so I cleaned it up and went straight to colouring. I love skipping the lineart stage so much.

@bleakbegonia submitted: Hey! Saw these guys indulging in a shrubbery in [removed]. They seemed to have eaten most leaves up top of the plant and were working their way down. Didn’t see any in the surrounding plants, never seen them around before. Please hide location. Thank you!

Buncha pals having a bush party. Hope they enjoyed themselves. They’re definitely grasshoppers, maybe soldier grasshoppers? They usually look more yellow in the stripey bits but I think the color in the photo is a little washed out. And they do tend to be very gregarious, feeding in groups.

Ditto

Steve Harrington x Reader

You had known Steve all through high school, you were even part of his little click when he was King Steve. You got ditched along with Tommy and Carol but you weren’t like them, Steve knew that and he felt a little bad leaving you behind. But that’s high school you guess and now looking back it seemed so long ago.

He had heard (quite reassuringly) that you’d stopped hanging out with them after some party in senior year where Tommy thought it would be funny to throw you into the pool.

Everyone knows you can’t swim, right?

Surely Steve wasn’t the only one that paid that much attention to you.

A specific memory he had of you was in junior year when he was on the swim team, you’d always wait around for him to finish practise for a ride home but you wouldn’t go anywhere near the water edge.

You had bumped into each other again at Star Court too a few years ago, a stripey top and funny hat adorning his head. It had been the first time you really saw him since graduation.

“Nice uniform.” You had quipped with a scoff and fond smile. Leaning against your car door as he walked from his own.

He had look you up and down, slowly from head to toe, taking in your white paper hat, yellow and white checked dress and white tennis shoes. You were clearly waitressing in the diner up on the food court.

“Ditto.” He had retaliated with a smirk before walking off, hair perfectly placed and his shoulders shaking as he laughed at himself walking in.

Over the years you had then obviously seen each other across town, Family Video mostly, sometimes at the pool if it was warm enough and you both had time off work.

But now most recently as you’re both nearly 24 it was in The Hideout.

He was friends with Eddie Munson now, truly reformed King Steve.

Tonight The Hideout was particularly busy and you waved over to Robin as you were stuck chatting with some random guy a few years above you in school.

His name totally lost on you as your focus was stolen by Steve.

As usual.

She grinned and waved back before grabbing hold of a reluctant Steve and dragged them both over to where you were.

“Hey!” She greeted hugging you tight, you greeted them both, extending a hug to Steve too.

His fingers lingered a little on your waist and you looked up at him hopeful, a glimmer of something as your eyes met. The two beers you’d had giving you the false bravado to give him a grin, suggestive and flirty.

“Hi Steve.” You chirped happily and hadn’t even noticed the guy you were talking to sulk off with a pout.

“Hi honey.” He replied, a name he had given you in high school, said because you were always sickly sweet to him and back then the casual flirting was nothing.

Now it gave you butterflies and a smitten smile you’d tuck under your teeth to try and hide.

“Eddie playing tonight?” You asked looking between them for an answer.

“Yeah and Robin has dragged me out on a double date.” Steve grumbled with an eye roll.

You were slapped cold all of a sudden and it was a sweat box in this place.

“You’re here on a date?” You asked as if making him realise what he had even just said., your head titled to the side and taking a step back from him in disappointment.

He definitely didn’t want you to think he was on a date, or interested in dating.

Well, dating anyone but you that is.

“Oh uh, yeah but not really it’s just-“ he was cut off by Robin grabbing his arm again with excitement.

“They’re here! Come on let’s get a drink!” She dragged him off again in a flash and you were left red cheeked and pouting.

Blinking out of the hurt you looked around for your friends, you had met them at college, staying close to Hawkins you would commute to campus and they became your best friends.

Rejoining them you couldn’t help but be distracted, the girl Steve was on a date with was blonde, on the younger side and definitely interested in him. Giving him the same smitten grin you probably were when he first got here.

She was laughing at all his jokes, which you knew were lame but you knew why she was laughing.

You do the exact same.

Looking away back to your friends distracted you while Eddie was on stage, one of them crushing on him bad. He was good you have to give him that and when he threw you a wink your friends squealed latching onto your arm.

“I’ll introduce you come on!” You had said a few hours later, Eddie and Steve currently sitting in the booth they claimed.

Robin, her date and Steve’s date were dancing to the next band.

“Hey pretty!” Eddie greeted jumping up and hugging you.

He’d become one of the coolest guys you knew, and he definitely wasn’t The Freak anymore.

“Hey! You were amazing up there! My friend Sasha is a huge fan, Sasha this is Eddie we went to high school together and you know Steve you met him before.” You introduced nicely and Eddie took an immediate interest in Sasha.

“You’re like so cool, I wish I could play an instrument.” She gushed instantly.

“Well it’s not that hard princess, want me to teach you? It’s all about the fingers.” He purred making her giggle and drag him to the bar.

“Hey you want some air?” Steve asked you standing up and putting a hand on your lower back. You were once again completely taken by him, he was looking down at you for an answer, his cologne wrapping you in his familiar warm presence.

“Sure!” You followed him outside to the small seating area, nowhere near enough heaters but Steve sat down close enough to keep you pretty much on fire with his presence, but he sat down with a huff clearly enjoying the fresh air and being away from the groups.

“What’s up Stevie? Not having fun?” You asked a little teasingly and with a small nudge of your shoulders.

“Not really.” He confessed making you look down at your lap, fingers picking at nails. “You look pretty tonight.” He followed up quickly and you could feel him watching you, waiting for a reaction.

“Steve.” You groaned trying to hide your smile and it made him laugh out loud, you felt his laugh rumble through him you were sitting that close.

“You know you’re pretty, but you look especially pretty right now.” He reaffirmed and you looked up at him.

“You’re on a date right now.” You reminded and he rolled his eyes.

“I don’t care honey.” He reassured. “I was hoping you weren’t here tonight, you are literally the last person on earth, I want knowing I was doing Robin this favour.” He told you honestly and the excitement burst in your chest.

The years of flirting and tip toeing around the attraction seemingly becoming real.

“You finally admitting you like me Harrington?” You joked knowing everyone teased you both throughout high school, your late teens and early twenties being taken up by much the same but it was a little less jokey.

“Depends.” He teased making you glare at him mockingly, a glint in your eyes that he swore in that moment to himself he’d never get bored of.

“Depends on what?” You played along.

“On whether you’re admitting to liking me too.” He laughed and you smiled right up at him.

“Oh right. Well, if you’re playing that game I’ve liked you since we were freshmen, actually I think specifically it was when you told Tommy to fuck off because he pulled my hair all the way back in middle school.” Steve laughed at the memory before looking at you and nodding slowly.

“Ditto.” He whispered leaning down slightly and lowering his gaze to your lips.

“You gonna kiss me now?” You asked hopeful making him smile at your impatience.

“Oh yeah, I’m going to kiss you now honey.” And with that his lips met yours, gently and softly making you warm all over.

When he finally pulled away you rolled your lips into your mouth before smiling.

“Finally.” You told him happily.

HELLO. I COME BEARING ISAT WING DESIGNS

To the left are the top/back views, and to the right are the bottom/front views! I think it’s fairly obvious bc of them being lighter colored and whatnot, but I figured I’d clarify just in case :]

(relative sizes not accurate btw!!! At some point I will create a proper lineup that compares everybody more accurately <3)

Design notes under the cut!! AND warning for very slight spoilers btw!!

SIFFRIN

Theirs are based off of a seagull’s because they’re originally from an island! I kept their shades pretty light, and gave them star patterns on their secondary and primaries! He’s also got some white speckling

MIRABELLE

I gave her very rounded wings to match the rest of her design! They ended up being shaped similar to an owl’s! I gave her a barred pattern to be reminiscent of the Change symbol!!

ISABEAU

I based his wing shape off of an eagle’s bc they’re like. Big strong birds. He’s got a lace pattern on the primaries and secondaries to be similar to his clothes, and then the lighter shades are to be similar to his hair!

BONNIE

Theirs are shaped like a puffin’s since they’re coastal birds and also I love puffins!! I gave them a little stripey pattern with some dots to be similar to the one on their shirt! They’ve got their flight feathers, BUT they’ve still got some downy fluff. They’re trying VERY HARD to fly!! Once their feathers fully grow in they go swimming with Sif :]

ODILE

Based hers off of a magpie for the dark color and the association with shiny things bc of her stuff with gems and also because I really like magpies <3 I gave her diamond patterns on the primaries to match the pattern on her jacket, and also because of the diamond shaped gems hanging off her glasses! If these were colored I would’ve made hers more desaturated than everybody else’s because. Old. But!! for now if I ever render anything properly I will just make them not quite as shiny

LOOP

Glowy spiky wings!!! They can also get floating shard thingies coming off of them, like what they get around their head sometimes! Their wings change shape a lot since they’re not really solid objects

EUPHRASIE

Based hers off of a swan’s since they are big and have white feathers and are associated with like gracefulness and whatnot! I gave her some barred patterns for the same reason Mira’s got hers, and also gave her some darker speckles around the tops to match her hair!

THE KING

Big ol albatross wings!! His are meant to look fairly similar to Sif’s since they both came from the island! He’s basically got inverted shades from Sif, with the same star and speckling patterns as them. ALSO he would have multiple sets of wings, and have a pair on his head that cover his face :)
