Jane Levy Mandy Milkovich you'll forever be a star and i miss you sooooooo much 😭😭😭
#Levy!Mandy was a bloody-toothed coyote jacked up on cheap candy i'm somewhat willing to die on this hill#Emma Greewell is such cool cat she absolutely kills my vibes even though her acting is absolutely wonderful#it's just that both Mickey and Mandy are such rabid personalities but they're also colorful and endearing#there's warmth to the characters; it's what makes them burn through the narrative and make holes in your memory#the warmth is so necessary. I cried when in season 1 Mando took Ian's hand and asked if he wanted to be friends#the warmth is the catalyst for the innocence of these characters#the thing that catches you off guard#and Greenwell is NOT a warm personality. She's got flavour but her mannerism is so cool and detached#Jane Levy Mandy could absolutely run over Karen. Greenwell Mandy just isn't that believable#manic pixie rejected hellspawn Mandy my most beloved ❤️❤️#😩😩😩 i need Levy mandy soooo bad

lots of people talk about paul's musical talent re his bass playing, or his songwriting/composing, but soooo rarely does anyone talk about his vocal talent. like. if you played someone nineteen hundred and eighty-five and then like all my loving they flat out wouldn't be able to tell that it's the same person. same with like oh! darling, helter skelter, monkberry moon delight, etc. and when he makes himself sound Exactly like buddy holly of elvis or even john for a song or bit? oh my god.
#his John Voice at the beginning of that one take of you never give me your money always catches me off guard#like it's ahsgahhss goddddd god god. he has so much range it makes me sickkkkkk#and also he's just really good at accents and impressions outside of music#he could've been a voice actor if he weren't a musician is the thing

Do you sketch in pencil or do you just go straight to pen?
thanks for the question! it depends on what i'm drawing!
if i'm just doodling without any plans, i may go straight in with a pen. it's a habit i developed from my school days because i didn't like the feeling of pencil on paper. these are examples of when i just went straight in with pen:
the first two i drew with felt tip pen and ballpoint pen respectively and left the sketch as the lineart. the third one, i sketched with a ballpoint pen, liked it, and decided to clean it up with white out and add cleaner lineart on top.
now, if i know i'm going to draw something complicated or something i know want to clean up later, i'll usually start with a coloured pencil sketch and then... decide if it's a lines first day or colours first day. you'll usually notice some stray sketch lines because i honestly don't care to clean them all up perfectly. Some examples here:
usually, i do lines first because that's what i'm used to. also because getting the lines done gets me closer to a finished drawing (a bad habit of mine is stopping once the lines are done). but recently, i've been being too precious about doing lines, so i decided to switch things up and colour first, which has been helping me to not overthink my lines too much.
#ask the crab#crab art#traditional art#bright colours#basically i just do whatever#i change things up often because like#that's how i beat my art block#by switching things up and catching it off guard#haHA YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD RUIN MY DAY#I'LL COLOUR FIRST THEN#I'VE LEARNED A WHOLE NEW ART MEDIUM TAKE THAT ART BLOCK#ART BLOCK IS DEAD#I PIXEL ART NOW#i should pixel art again sometime

...yeah so the chances are very high that next time I see my boyfriend, I'm gonna yell 'evil boop' and smack his arse and as a result possibly add to an entire friendship group's lexicon again
#coco speaks#we're doing this thing where whenever one of us catches the other off-guard you have to smack their arse it's very funny#he pouts every time I'm better at it than he is#mr no name kid#boop#evil boop

sometimes, I'll be reading an atsv fic and come across one word or way of phrasing or encounter, and all of a sudden just know the author is black. on the flipside, sometimes writers will write in a certain way that makes it obvious they're decidedly not 💀
#i once read a fic that describe hobie as “styling” his hair in wicks#which is like#not necessary wrong#it was like “his hair was in wicks a style he usually liked to put his hair in”#a sentence that implies you can just take your hair out of wicks??? like they're braids???#another fic described blm as a movement that got really popular “recently” because alot of black people were being killed by cops#which is not necessarily...wrong but is so far from it's actual messaging and what it truly stands for#like blm at the root is not a new thing#idk i mean no judgment because i know it isn’t on purpose it's just always catches me off guard cuz...what#atsv#hobie brown#flowerpunk#punkprowler#flowerbyte#prowlerbyte#idk im just naming these ships cause ik y'all get it 💀#miles morales#margo kess#miles g morales#spiderverse#punkflower

sometimes a car seat headrest song is gutting start to finish and sometimes it takes u 10 mins to even realise someone has a gun to ur head. and then it's too late
#talking about the gun song. ironically. he has such a mumbled incoherent way of singing that this song always catches me off guard#until we're at 10 mins 57 seconds and i freeze up with some ancient prey animal instinct#i am the gentle cannibal! i promise to eat you softly! you won't notice a thing! hold me tight!#car seat headrest

I am still unclear if this is appropriate timing or if we good or not lol
#lead of the project just threw on the discord a big speech starting with “I'm sure you all heard the news by now''#but like bro no we did not it is in fact a holiday even :|#my instinct when I opened it was to copy and paste it elsewhere because I could feel it was about to get deleted and it did. of course I'm#not showing it to anyone but if my coworkers didn't catch it I'll have to raise an eyebrow monday and ask about it#I did get a feeling during the last meeting when he mentioned not having done the documentation yet for the next thing we were making#I was like hm... that should probably be done by now but still caught me off guard ugh#if I actually go back to no income I'm gonna have to stay in shit college conditions and my end of year plans are gonna change :/#oh well life of a contractor

the thing about people setting boundaries with us is that it means I don't have to worry as much about whether they secretly think I'm really annoying or whatever, because if they've set boundaries and told me when stuff I do bothers them in the past, then I know they're willing to tell me if I'm doing something they don't like, and can assume that if they haven't said anything, I'm probably fine
#personal#thoughts#🍬 post#it's nice because it's like ''oh god what if I'm actually being really annoying? oh wait... they would have told me. okay cool''#also people communicating stuff very directly is great just in general#we have friends now who will just say things directly so we don't have to read between the lines#and it's so much better and we have a much easier time communicating#especially because we feel more comfortable saying ''I think I misunderstood this. can you clarify?''#and being open about where we have difficulty when it comes to understanding what people are saying#at the same time it is absolutely wild having people be patient with us and willing to clarify things and accommodate for us#we're very much not used to it and it still catches us off-guard but in a good way

somehow it's an unspoken rule that i'm the person in my social circles who orders for everyone while at a restaurant/cafe which is fine, right, except that occasionally a server/barista will get flustered because they like my voice so much 🥴
#i'll never forget the first time it ever happened and it was a cashier who blushed and said can you...tell me what to do again?#and i was like SIR THIS IS A WENDYS and he blushed so hard and started complimenting me and he gave me so many extra fries#i hope he's doing good wherever he is#also i used to work in broadcast and someone once told me that they had a thing for my voice since they'd tune into the radio while at work#i mean it's nice i guess?#it just catches me off guard lol#storytime#mine

Molly using her harp as a refuge and a coping mechanism is something I don't talk about but really should
#hetalia#hetalia headcanons#hws ireland#nyo!ireland#like the one piece of your identity that (although somewhat contextually changed) you are allowed to keep without backlash#you'd cling to it too#she'd have learned it from a very young age as well considering children were typically apprenticed by 7 at the latest to learn#it's also shocking to people at points because it's so oddly gentle for her?#like not that she isn't capable of being gentle or soft#but that people associate her more with going out to fiddle and party#which is a thing too!#but then they catch her in these little moments plucking away an o'carolan tune and she's so oddly calm#and i think it catches them off guard

Everyone Hated That and we simply Must change it#take ''yeah it's a movie to me i've never seen a stage show / had not seen one as the Original Experience to me''#take ''and it's obviously like 'well. bummer' in that context as well'' and ''nooo will roland seymour nooo''#and look at all his patterns!! besties omw. what a torment lmao#and don't even talk to us about delivering the comedic beats to catch everyone off guard for the [got real] beats. augh#also orin looks like he's like a twelve year old on that thing lmfao. great#shoutout to the street texture.

do u think dave would 👉👈 karkat bleed. or does he keep him very very safe
i dont rlly sea dave as a violent yandere??? at least not unless absolutely necessary or rlly rlly desperate. he would try to keep karkat as safe as possible while still maintaining some kind of control over him, ykno? because as much (subconsciously) controlling and manipulative dave is, he's still caring and near submissive otherwise. to drive him to wounding karkat at the point of drawing blood it would have to be reelly serious, somefin like probably hes drunk or out of himself and karkat tries somefin bold or drastic that doesn't give him enough time to think of a rational solution but attack! rarely would he ever use physical strength against karkat out of his own rational will.
so in conclusion id say it depends on the situation, but it would have to be the kind where dave can not control himself? :3
oh yeah, somehow this happens in the future. (///>u0///)
psst. a bonus for blood i didnt add in one image because i thought it would be too over-the-top and lowkey gross(maybe.)
its a lil detail i wanted in, but thought my initial intentions would have been a little too obvious....(and also got a firm no from my moirail BUT IM STILL SHOWING HEHEHE!!)
#remember that dave is a quick thinker#he can make things up on the spot so long as he's concentrated enough on the task#to catch him off-guard would certainly be an elbow to the gut or in a worse scenario a sword to the neck.#cw blood#homestuck#karkat vantas#davekat#dave strider#yandere dave#ask#ruroekaki#i just had to take the opportunity to show that didnt i. awoops#why is english so difficult. i hope you guys are getting my points across#i would b so disappointed if people barely understood what im trying to say AAGHGHHH
