Very messy sketches of Tamtam 🐺🐐🐈
Floki was his brother rip
Herding sheep in his sad boy era 
I think it would be really interesting if the Spring Court had Celtic undertones. Low-key my new obsession 
For a long time I didn’t have a clear vision of what Tamlin looked like that bitch was just blonde to me, until I started drawing him with a really messy braids and all of a sudden I was like that’s you.
Maybe when he went under the mountain Amarantha tied up his hair in really neat office looking buns and braids. Still beautiful but that freedom was no longer there.
And after he returns he’d cut off all his hair because he felt it cared too many painful memories.
Morehead cannons and re-imaginings down 👇
I think it would be interesting if the Spring territories where stereotyped as being a land of savage hunters and brutality by the other courts, except maybe Winter. Made even more alien to the rest of the high fae by there strange religious practices and tendency to put a High priestess word over a High Lords. So when Rhys and Tam meet for the first time they bond over how the rest of the high fae and court see their people as uncivilized and backward. It also turns out that in both Spring and illlyria they prefer their meat raw. They become true friends after they share some cuisine.

ive been a follower of yours for a while and it looks like you make a lot of things on ms paint! if thats true, how do you find the patience to do all of that layering and editing and make a finished piece in the end? its gotta be some of the most impressive art ive seen on that program
Yes I do draw on ms paint, if not then it's not tagged on the drawing. Sometimes if i ever try to practice krita program ill often do the sketch on paint first cause im more comfortable there
It's not hard!! When you're used to draw on 1 layer you just learn to become fast, it's just natural now. people love to talk about how you have to be insane to work on there (to a certain degree yes) but if you just try and do it again and again you just learn your way through that's it.
I feel like I should record myself doing it one day to prove its not dark magic, I actually now find it annoying to use multiple layers on other programs. One layer is just simple, you mess up then fix it by painting over until it's right, I feel like the 1 layer thing helped me improve in some aspects compared to when I used to draw on FA before. Also canvas too small? Thats fine you can make it bigger so easily it's so good
I also really like the crayon texture there it's what I use for everything, I think it's visible in this sketches from yesterday (2 are altuyur gijinkas of younger versions of ocs, morang ,tamtam, then just young maanul morang doodle)
I also really prefer the simple UI, to be honest other art programs are a little overwhelming with all their buttons, especially since I'll just use 2 of them. I like just like having a few tools and colors

Every Rose Has Its Thorns - Part Thirty-One
pairing: Ricky Olson x ofc x Chris 'Motionless' Cerulli
warnings/tropes: slow burn, soulmates, strangers to enemies to lovers, betrayal, angst, fluff, smut, language, online bullying, panic attacks, stalking, mental health issues.
summary: In a world where soulmates inexplicably receive a tattoo that will match that of their soulmate the moment they turn eighteen years old, being famous and covered in very visible tattoos can make finding your true soulmate a questionable fate. For everyone involved.
author’s note: Unbeta'd, readers beware as always lol.

“Chris, it’s changing shape too.”
Hearing Ricky say that, first it was changing colour, and now it was changing shape, and Chris, Chris couldn’t breathe, he just he could.. No. no, he just.. There was just too, too much..
“Rick, Ricky move-”
Chris wasn’t paying attention to Talia pushing Ricky out of the way from where he was half in front of Chris as she pulled him to face her as she knelt on the couch. He was struggling to suck air into his lungs in a daze as she reached up, and pressed her palms to his cheeks to take his face in her hands, his eyes meeting hers as he struggled.
“I, Jelly-”
“Hi, Spookie, yea, I’m here, just breath with me okay?”
Chris felt her move to press one of her hands to his chest over his displaced shirt, avoiding his exposed soulmate tattoo. Maybe because it would bring his mind right back to what was causing his panic, maybe not, but it didn’t matter. She was just drawing his focus to her, completely to her. Her hand pressed against where his heart was beating so hard in his chest, and how her thumb was brushing so tenderly across his cheek.
He listened as she talked him through the five things. Five things he could see, four, he could feel, three he could hear, two he could smell, and one he could taste.. By the time they got down to the one, and Chris realised his mouth actually was all dry like cotton wool, Ricky offered up a piece of gum from sitting half crouching next to him on the floor.
“Don’t worry, it’s vegan, I checked.”
The fact that he checked before offering had Chris sighing and leaning against him a little as Ricky stood up from the floor again, his arm wrapping around his shoulder,
“Better, Chris?”
Chris smiled softly over to Talia, thankful she was here, thankful in so many ways for her, for Ricky, for both of them..
“Yeah, I don’t, I don’t know what’s happening.. There are no theories on this one. When it comes to passed soulmate tattoos, they just, are.”
So the fact something was happening to his, was beyond him. “Chris-”
He looked at Talia as she sighed,
“I’m not asking for your tattoo, I’m asking for you, I’m worried about you, are you okay?”
He relaxed, marginally, anyway, but nodded. It wasn’t enough, though. Not nearly enough. Talia might only be worried about him, but he needed to know, he needed more.
“I need to know though, Talia, I need to understand.” He’d already lost his soulmate, he couldn’t go through this if something was happening that involved Ricky and Talia that could risk, something with them too. “I left a message asking if anyone had heard of people feeling strange sensations on the message board from their tattoos after a soulmate passed, but all I got was a smart arse remark from what I suspect was a dumb ass kid.”
He groaned slightly,
“What use is the verification process if stupid kids can still get on the board.”
Glancing over to Ricky as he scoffed at this only to hear Talia giggle slightly as well, in his frustration he was obviously missing something,
“Chris,”
Talia starting softly,
“Just because someone is over eighteen, doesn’t mean they aren’t a dumb ass kid.”
Then Ricky just had to chime in,
“Yea, think about who we were at eighteen.. Hell, go online and watch old motionless videos, and we were older than eighteen Chris.. Me know, I would have called us dumb ass kids.”
“Okay, okay, point taken.”
Talia sighed,
“Now, back to Chris thinking his tattoo is reacting to Rick, but Rick thinking it’s reacting to me..”
She looked over at Chris, Talia had heard what Ricky said about Chris having problems with his shoulder while she was having her breakdown, and they were looking after her. Really, it just sounded all kinds of flimsy to her, but wasn’t all of this with the tattoos? It was all about interpretation, and it was confusing, at best.
“What makes you think it's reacting to Ricky, though, Chris?”
At that, she noticed the way he paused, the way he glanced at her, wait, was that hesitation, why was he so hesitant? Was it bad?
“Spookie?”
It was Rick that spoke up though,
“I kissed him.”
When she looked over at him in surprise, oh. Oh. She hadn’t realised their friendship might be like that, cross those boundaries. Though, he was the one that had joked about her and Ava. The surprise must have said something to him, however, for him to want to clarify when he quickly added,
“Comfort kiss, it was just a peck, just a peck.”
Was he worried she’d be upset at him kissing Chris? They weren’t together, and she wasn’t about to go postal on him, was she? She didn’t think she was? But then why did her tattoo suddenly twinge like that when he started defending himself, blinking quickly. She knew Ricky had felt it between them with the way he was looking at her now. A gasp from Chris had them both looking over at him, shit… He felt it too, she was jealous.. But she didn’t feel jealous? Did she? That, why was the tattoo reacting when she wasn’t even jealous, they weren’t together! They, they.. He said..
“This is insane.”
Talia stood up quickly from the couch, but then as soon as she did, she stopped, not sure what she was doing where she was going, Ricky suddenly standing up too,
“Rick..”
She glanced to Chris, his tone slightly warning.. And that was when she realised, Ricky hadn’t been alone with her since the kitchen, only with Chris, right, because Chris knew, Chris had been, Talia chuckled.. Chris was there to keep them apart.. Oh that was perfect.. He was their chaperone, that was just perfect. Now he was tangled up in this mess too..
“You laugh.. But it gets better.. I think you should kiss Chris.”
Her gaze fell back on Ricky for a second, look at him like he’d grown a second head, he was telling her to kiss Chris. Just like that and instantly her tattoo was reacting, which was, embarrassing. She couldn’t even hide the fact that she’d thought about it, and oh, had she’d thought about it, thought about how if she wasn’t Ricky’s soulmate. Oh. My. God. That wasn’t fair, they could both feel it now, too.
“This is ridiculous, it’s complicated enough… isn’t it?”
Ricky just stared at her..
“Okay, hear me okay.. I thought before.. My tattoo was ripping through me every time I thought about you and Chris because I was jealous, but I think, the problem with these tattoos is that, well, it's all open for interpretation isn’t it?”
Talia swallowed as she looked to Ricky as he talked, he looked from her to Chris, and then back to her. Listening as he spoke about his tattoo affecting him concerning her friendship with Chris, so he’d known, that was news to her.. Even more so, why, why did she have butterflies in her stomach just listening to him talk like this.. She hadn’t felt like this since, since the night she almost met him in line for VIP.. so excited, so thrilled that she was on the verge of meeting her soulmate for the first time.
It was almost like, for the first time in years, she finally felt alive again.. Looking between Ricky, and then Chris.
“I don’t think I was jealous you were with Chris, I think,”
Ricky paused, this was going to be a leap, because, it was, it was a massive leap right now, but from how he felt ever since he’d invited Chris over and the three of them had spent time together. Sure it had been painful moments, but, there had been funny moments, moments when they could laugh and comfort each other..
“What, Rick?”
Glancing over towards Chris,
“I think I wanted to be there with you. I was so terrified of my soulmate tattoo, and dealing with Grace, and everything with Grace is still shit.. She’s deleted everything and it, it feels worse than ever, because now I don’t know where she is, what she’s doing.. She could be right outside this door and I wouldn’t know.”
He swallowed and sighed when Chris shook his head,
“Nope, that's the one place we know she isn’t, the security system would have gone off, I swear.. You want me to bring up the cameras, she might have figured out yours, but I guarantee she hasn’t mine.”
Rick felt a flush of warmth of affection for both of them when Chris said that, and the way Talia muttered Bitch under her breath.. Talia, JellyBean, too sweet for words Talia, and she was, now they were both looking at her when she said that..
“What? You want to know what Ava calls her? You want to know?”
The chuckle that came from Chris had Ricky smiling, for such a serious issue, only these two could make him smile,
“Okay, now I have to know, JellyBean.”
“Ava calls her the soulmate stealing hussy. I swear, right before we walked into the greenroom, that was how she cheered me up.”
“Oh, my god.”
Ricky couldn’t help but mutter as he laughed along with Chris. Both of them absolutely applaud and yet amused beyond belief by Ava’s antics, well, now they were, they probably wouldn’t have been at the time considering. At the time, they had both thought that Grace really was Ricky’s soulmate and Talia was the interloper. Now, though, they knew better.
“Calling her a bitch, is nothing.”
Yeah, now it was nothing. Ricky nodded slightly.
“So, back to this, Sweetheart.. The fact that your tattoo reacted to my suggestion of kissing Chris makes me think you’ve thought about it already.”
Raising an eyebrow to her, and there was no way he was going to judge her, seeing the way her face flushed he smirked a little, right,
“Sweetheart, I’ve already kissed him, you know that, I’m going to me perfectly honest, not just once. That peck, was probably was one of the more innocent kisses.. Right Chris?”
His smirk grew at the surprise on her face, looking over to Chris,
“Right, make me explain.. It was, years, years, ago.. Just some fun, nothing serious, just making out..”
Seeing Talia shake her head slightly,
“And here I thought all your stage antics were just for fun.”
Ricky couldn’t help the laugh there at the teasing remark Talia directed towards Chris, she wasn’t wrong either, the shit he used to pull towards him on stage, sending the fans completely wild, had been hilarious.
“Admittedly, then Julia came along, then Grace, and our lives changed. It was just a bit of fun, we knew it wasn’t real, we weren’t soulmates, so like I said, fun.”
“We.. weren’t.”
Ricky added as he glanced at the changing mark on Chris shoulder that he’d covered up by fixing his shirt since he’d sat in the chair after calming down.. The colour changing, the image shifting, who knows what was happening right now. He had a theory, one that he didn’t need a message board for, and any scientist to tell him, just a wild stab in the dark he supposed, which was why he wanted Talia to kiss, Chris.
“No wonder you thought I hooked up with Ava.”
Talia smiled at him, “I was joking!” She laughed at him as he tried to defend himself. At the same time, he didn’t have a leg to stand on with the fact he had just admitted to having made out with his best friend knowing they weren’t soulmates years ago.. True enough.. She’d shared tiny moments with Ava, nothing more than drunken flirty kisses while laughing their asses off over drinking games. “My idea is still there, Talia.. If the kiss makes the tattoo react, I think.. I think something more is going on here, something bigger than just the bond between you and me.”
Looking at Ricky, Talia turned to Chris, who had been silent on the matter so far,
“Spookie, you haven’t said anything, I mean, would you even want to kiss me anyway?”
She wasn’t going to kiss him just for the tattoo if he didn’t want to have anything to do with her like that! Just because they were friends, and getting closer, didn’t mean she wanted to assume anything.
Chris paused, was, was she really asking him if he wanted to kiss her? This gorgeous women who he would kiss in a fucking heart beat the moment he saw her if he thought for one moment she’d give him a second thought? Oh, Chris remembered the night of VIP with such clarity, long before they’d discovered Ava was Vinny’s soulmate, he’d noticed Talia when she was still in line. There’d just been something about her, she’d been different when he’d glanced towards her a few times before she’d gotten to the front of the line to meet them. If he’d not known for years that his soulmate was gone and nearly every person he met wouldn’t be bothered with him, he’d have asked her out immediately. Well, maybe not, asking fans was a slippery slope, they all knew it. Then of course, realising who she actually was, sending their entirely fucking world, Ricky’s world, on its head? Fuck, she was asking him that?
Knowing that her tattoo had reacted just from thinking about kissing him, that she’d thought about kissing him herself…
“JellyBean..”
Taking in a breath.. How could she think he didn’t want..
“Baby..”
Nope.. he leaned closer to her, a hand coming up to cup her cheek, and his lips were capturing hers in a kiss that was as far from just a peck on the lips as possible compared to the kiss Ricky had planted on him just the day before. The moment his lips touch hers, all three of their tattoos, including Chris’ strange grey, half formed tattoo, flared to life and had Chris gasping against Talia’s mouth with the softest groan.. Oh, fuck.

Hi Cursedvibes, just want to ask for your thoughts on Thepersonperson's JJK 268 - 270 dream theory, if you don't mind.
I don't know that blog's specific theory, haven't read the whole post and it has been a while since I skimmed it, but I assume it's pretty much the same thing everyone else bringing up the theory has been saying. I'm generally not a fan of the "it was all a dream" trope. Any variation of it I've seen has just felt cheap or killed emotional investment/tension. Didn't like the Infinite Tsukiyomi in Naruto and Gege copying it with the merger or Yuuji's domain doesn't make it better.
Even if this is a dream, I don't see a reason for why it is necessary then to waste a whole chapter on nonsense bickering and addressing fandom criticism. This being a dream doesn't change that Gege is rushing things and dragging them out in other places. Like, if you're gonna make a dream, at least make it interesting and not bore your readers out of their minds that they are basically hoping for all this to be fake, so it makes an iota of sense. Maybe it would be better if we knew there was more to build on the dream sequences, but there's only one chapter left and I don't think a potential Part 2 will make things more interesting.
One thing I'd like to mention also is that I think all this tamtam over Yuuji's appearing and disappearing fingers and Megumi's scars is really not that deep. The same thing has been happening all throughout the Shinjuku fight and Gege didn't comment on it every single time because it's a reoccurring issue that has been fixed in volume releases. I'm not surprised the same would happen with Megumi's scars, since he just got them and Gege isn't used yet to drawing them.
So in short, not a fan of the theory, hope it doesn't happen but honestly at this point I can't really bring myself to care. In one week we'll get the last and hopefully final chapter of jjk and know for certain anyway. I can't say after the last 5 chapters that I'm very curious about how the manga ends, I just want it to be over. Sorry, I can't really give more of an answer.
#honestly I'd find the dream theory even worse than what we have now#at least now it's just rushed and bland making this all a dream means the last chapters were an even bigger waste of time#asks#jjk spoilers#jjk 270

To Find but not be Found
The Introduction of the game
Italics mean their speaking in Norwegian
“THATS A GREAT IDEA!”
That was all that was heard from the 2 toned eyed Eriksson before she booked it down the stairs and out the front door with out her signature purple cardigan.
She ran to the Baumann household and began Rapidly knocking on the door. "I'm coming I'm Coming hold your horses Ivory" Granny knew it was her immediately, meaning Tamarack was indeed home. The door opened to reveal her only Granny. "Yes Deary? Oh goodness where is your Cardigan! It's cold!"
Ivory looked down confusedly only to see her white blouse with one of her favorite flowers printed all over, a Pyramidal saxifrage. "Oh! I thought I grabbed it, that's why it's cold" she said with a giggle before looking up at Granny. "Is TamTam home? Knapp came up with a really fun game and she wants to play with TamTam and the boys!" Ivory said as she shifted her weight from her toes to her heels repeatedly as she spoke.
"Why yes she is. Let me go get her"
"Can you tell her to meet Ali and I in our backyard? I still have to grab the boys!"
"Yes I can"
"Thank you Granny!" She said turning to go to Qius house to Inform him before Granny yelle out to her" Go put on your cardigan before you do so!" it was not negotiatable. She quickly ran back through he front door and you the stairs, stumbling abit as she rushed up stairs and into her sisters room.
"Button! Can you wait for TamTam in the backyard while I go grabbed the Boys?"
"Ya" Allison said getting off her desk chair to follow her sister as Ivory grabbed her Cardigan to go to her friend’s house where Him and the rest of the club were. ‘How Convenient’ she thought to herself after buttoning the last button on her Cardigan, opened the backyard where her favorite Copper headed friend was already.
“Hi TamTam!”
“Hiiii!” The hyper girl said as she rapidly waved at the duo. “I need to go grab the boys. Can you wait here with Ali?" Tamarack nodded as Ivory began to speed walk to the other yard while Tamarack gave Allison a big hug.
Arriving at her last destination she was in luck, the rest if the club was already walking out to the Lins backyard. 'My luck is unbeatable today!' she thought to herself with a large grin as she sped up to get to them. "Hi Guys!"
"Hi Ryru!" "Hello" "..."
She smiled brightly at the boy even though Darren looked a bit uncomfortable.
"Can you guys come to my backyard? Knapp came up with a really fun game to play! Tamarack is already there."
She gestured to her backyard where they could Allison and Tamarack drawing in the dirt with sticks."She wants to play it with you guys!"
And with that the rest of the club curious as Allison was never one to Entionate play with anyone other than Ivory. They followed the brown haired girl to her backyard where she immediate placed hers of next Silver eyed sister
"Want me to tell them?"
All Allison gave in response was a small nod as she gripped onto Ivorys Cardigan sleeve.
"Ok so! The game is kinda like hide and seek but instead everyone is both a hider AND seeker!"
That confused everyone else. "How can you be both the Hider and Seeker?" Qiu pipped in.
"Because everyone is hunting eachother. Well, everyone has 1 Target but you don't know who's target you are! Like I could be Baxter's target but my target is Tamarack! Does that make sense?"
After a bit of more explaining of the game the kids went back home to tell their parents since they decided they would play it in the town.
In a few days they would all draw a name from a bag to decide who their target was.

your art is absolutely stunning and thank you for drawing a lot for tamlin 💕 there’s not enough fanart of him and i yearn for more tamtam content so thank you for all the work you do !!
Aww, thank you! I'm glad you like my interpretations of him.
Honestly, one reason for it is that after I read these books I looked into the Tamlin tags and there was barely any art, mostly just hate or jokes and I was so disappointed. No cute Tamlin art, no Tam/Rhys???
But you know how it is: Be the change you want to see in the world and now here we are.
#me and copy just trying to fill the tamlin tag with cute art#so the 5 people who like him will have something nice to look at ahaha (and maybe it convinces SJM not to kill him off - one can dream!)#but honestly I always do that I get attached to the one loser noone else likes and then I have to draw for them#the struggle#but it's fun#like with acotar - there is SO MUCH art out there for the bat boys#and some of it is very good#so I don't have as much to add there#but tamlin? plenty of stuff to do with him still!#thrum rambles#anon asks#thrum replies#idk what my tags are anymore lol

Dear Not John
Contrary to my usual emotional impulse phases, no, I am in my folklore era.
I find myself busy getting lost in this fictional world of dance and theater where I have no one but an imaginary ensemble beside me. But in the last few days, where I see the sun setting more slowly than before, where I see myself not getting excited once the clock hits 6 in the evening, feeling like a big nuisance, and even feeling empty grabbing a bite out of a pasta dinner, I guess it's the right time to retreat into the shadows for a bit, enjoy the silence and reflect in simplicity.
I've dated people who told me that I talk loudly in public and that I should tone it down, with them not knowing that I feel embarrassed once I enter my bedroom door and thinking that at some point, I may have caused a minuscule uproar with what I deemed plainly as me being excited with things. There is also this sinking feeling that I may have annoyed someone once I share a post, story, tweet, or Tiktok video. That is why I am writing this as a momentarily farewell? I know that I will still write stuff but in terms of other socials, I know where to stand in its grey area now. I am doing this for my own good, to better myself along with my morals, my language, and even my image. This might come off to those who know as another manipulative tactic for me to draw attention to myself again. But I am done feeding myself with what people might see or hear, I want to revert from being the abrasive and loud Sam to the calm and composed Tamtam who only wanted to dance and eat peanut butter cookies.
I may have gotten tipsy the other day, and hello to the videos of me being a wreck in public, but after that, I noticed that I am strictly restricting my voice and I swear that I will try my very best to make it the last time my voice reaches a few decibels above the "anti-annoyance standards". Maybe this will be a good time for me to get back to my crafts, finish that book, and revisit the playlists I've left hanging.
We are still in the second month of a brand-new year and a lot can be done to flush these social toxins even if we take one step a day. I know that I will always champion people who are authentically and unapologetically themselves and would further promote them to never ever change because society is one big boomer. It's kind of ironic on my end. But I know it must be done. No more swearing? No more annoying meme spamming? No more rants? No more hyperboles? No more oversharing? Fingers crossed!
I am not in my "reputation era", I am simply just enjoying Call It What You Want for a while. If anybody sees this, see you in a few, I'll be busy in intentionally getting myself lost for a while.

unfinished pieces of 2022
I lied the last one is from this month, pieces are in order from oldest to newest so the first two have missing stuff from the current Canon.
Small explanations of each images below - >
first features tamtam and his white cazoar reaching the southern coast for the first time, in a strongly idealized view of the real crossing. I absolutely love to remake it one day as this is quite old and features off-saddle, clothing, and even cazoar anatomy (long tail), id like to have this remade alongside a historically accurate one in a single post. Just to show how the "realistic" oil paintings (a technique created in late AOS by kyhuines) were commissioned to romanticize reality and make it glorious. To be then used as propaganda for GA (in kaar'kchir). the drawing itself feels super empty and i just didn't know what do do to fix it, so i abandoned it!
The second is about south-west kyhuines ( because of blue gular skin) relaxing in their typical highly climbable city, with a female having a snack and a male with smoke coming out of opperculums, background as family groups that i initially wanted them to eat together, on the wall behind them i was planning on decorating it with neolithic like cave paintings. the drawing was started before i gave them tahofahs so in the piece its missing on the two kyhuines you see. started this drawing on FA then got bored of that program to go back on ms paint for the render, i feel like its a bit too decorated for a kyhuine town, just something about it isn't good so i won't continue.
and now for last! just a sub-adult (no blue feather reflection or white undercoats) north-east maanul (characterized by having dark feathers due to the rock coloration there, from ancient volcanic activities. and also having the ear hood skin covered in feathers) going out for a hunt in the large open sea. as maanuls live in coast and cliffs, with it the sea sometimes cut in two parts, by natural rock formation, large mangrove roots or even corals. hunting is done by going in the open sea, usually with several people, using primitive yet efficient harpoons. I wanted to add a marine animal under them that is just curious about the maanul, but i left that drawing so now it will be a blob of color with white under! the maanul isn't wearing anything which isn't normal, while rendering i was planning on adding minimal bracelets, necklaces, and a bit more, as the rest would be left at home.
plus sub-adults don't have access to certain types of permanent jewels as well as dyes, scarifications, and tattoos so they're naturally less decorated. also,peaking out the head to probably look at something interesting, not to breathe! with tahofahs hanging out to smell, when diving back it will be retracted as if wet its almost impossible to smell for several minutes.
