the last few sentences remind me of the subway rats poem in a weird and probably not intended way.

"it has happened plenty of times that on a rainy day they come get me, go to the balcony and show me... the rain." <- -> "subway rat made eye contact with me and said"

""Please fix this" they say. "Please get rid of the wet"" <- -> ""join us. when the train comes we slide under the tracks and feel it rumble over us like a warm thunderstorm. we live forever and we love to live.""

""Silly kitty," I say, "I can't control the rain." I then walk into the shower and turn on the rain." <- -> "I said no thank you I am too large he turned away from me I cried"

the pattern seeking brain is finding a pattern.

My cats have this meow that means "please come with me to fix this" after which they'll lead me to the problem in question, usually a empty (or 'empty') food bowl or a closed door they want open. They look at the 'problem', they look back at me, clear message.

What fascinates me is how this illustrates what they percieve as being in the realm of my 'power.' I control the food, I control the door, sure, but my cats love to sit on the balcony in the sun, and it has happened plenty of times that on a rainy day they come get me, go to the balcony and show me... the rain. "Please fix this" they say. "Please get rid of the wet"

"Silly kitty," I say, "I can't control the rain." I then walk into the shower and turn on the rain.

Nimbasa trio, gremlin edition.

They’re theater kids, your honor. They’re brewing crimes as we speak.

BONUS CRACK DOODLE THAT I EXORCISED DIRECTLY FROM MY BRAIN:

Some patrat children and a pachirisu child!

it remains so funny to me that Stede's "main character of a romcom" energy has a fucking area of effect.

last season Ed's crew were all taken aback by switching genres from gritty pirate drama to romcom, and this season we have Izzy losing a leg to gangrene right before Stede wakes Ed up from a coma by holding his hand.

We're going to find the upper limits of how many (or how few) syllables can be used in saying 'bacon egg and cheese'.

isekai about a nyc apartment block getting teleported into a fantasy realm, and how this group of people who previously have only had incidental contact with one another come together to build a vibrant community in their new circumstances. there's a season-long arc about introducing bagels and pizza to the fantasy world that gets into the details of sourcing ingredients, developing new technologies, and learning how to work with supernatural substitutions.

I had this AU archived off my accounts for a few years, but I'm thinking about it a lot more these days so I'm digging it up for sketches.

This is Kudari from Codebreaker, functionally the starting antagonist for the story when Emmet accidentally collides with him and takes parts of his body.

For a little debrief, the main idea of Codebreaker is that Emmet discovers that he exists in a false reality, and that there is a parallel plane where all of the instructions for his reality exist. He finds his way to this plane by accident after walking back from another lonely day at work, and is hellbent on learning how to manipulate it in the hopes that he can recover Ingo with that knowledge. Kudari is his own set of instructions, who he partly dismantles, allowing him to actually interact with the code. This leaves a hollowed out shell that starts trying to find his own way to get his body back from Emmet.

I'd been thinking about the Beta Submas leaks which lead me to sketching him again. Here's the first rough warmup sketch I did with a fight between him and Emmet.

From there I just started reworking his old design to be worse 💀

Let me know if you guys want more of this freak, he's honestly really fun to sketch.

before and after: a rat was enjoying the discarded portions of a banana, and then a person with no joy in their heart shined a flashlight on the tracks to scare them away

Behold! A doodle I did of @evtraininguniversity's borrower's au. It was a very good way to pas time while on my flight, and I just love these to little guys. Enjoy!

Also side note: The image is a photograph I took at a model train museum when I was visiting; my mother took me as a graduation trip to the museum and I thoroughly enjoyed!

Hey now! Who's that, running across the station platform??

The ever lovely and wonderful @cecilioque has organized ANOTHER incredible sticker project for the community, and I'm so so happy and excited to say I was invited to be a part of it!

If you want your OWN Pizza Patrat (and several many other fun stickers, made by 29 other amazingly talented artists), check out Sunny's official announcement post for details!

Language divides and building bridges.

Elesa’s feeling homesick. Emmet, bless his heart, tries to help by infodumping while Ingo frantically runs off to find water (crying is a very dehydrating experience).

((Would you look at that! The kids are picking up kantonese and galarian from each other!))

BONUS:

Heh. Callback.

this idea is so cute - tell me your muse's feelings on or experience with (actual) wolves. How do they deal with wolves when encountered?
