comic about v2 and the goal they'll never fully reach alongside a dissatisfying conclusion. intimate rivalry and all (alternative ending comic. V1 dies instead of V2 during 4-4. V2 is narrating. V1 is dead.)

isat npc designs!!!!! wahoo!!!!!

greyscale versions below :3

i don’t really have much to say about the colors here?? all of these fellas are vaugardian (i think) so i just kept their palettes Warm. i did give claude stains on her coat because i think she drops Chemicals on it all the time and doesn’t wash it throughly enough to get the stains out. other than that all of these are pretty straightforward!!

What was Lights out! Frank's reaction to crazy ass Lights out! Wally?

ah i wouldn't call him crazy, Wally's just desensitized to the Horrors and acts accordingly. which is occasionally a little unhinged. but no yeah Frank has a proper freakout <3 he has a hard time adjusting to certain aspects of.... everything. including Wally yeah

(don't bother trying to read this i know its terrible handwriting lmao, it's p much just to show Frank's spiral <3)

im quoting from a critical theory final im writing but its really neat how return of the obra dinn is not a game about you.

there is no self in the game. you dont control anything, you were not part of the obra dinn's tragedy and nothing you do in-game can change their fates - or anything for that matter. they will remain dead, the obra dinn will disappear with the storm, you have no power to change the story or the game. your self do not matter, even if you are represented by the eyes of the inspector.

what mattered are the other, the memories, the stories of adventure and tragedy of those aboard the obra dinn, how they relate to other characters in their struggle or in their demise. this game is not about you, it is about them.

but its a cycle of remember and re-member. you feel a disconnect to these strangers' stories and experiences but you are thrown into their boots. you were not part of the obra dinn, but you feel pity, anger, sadness, disgust and fear for their fates, do you not?

and i think that's really neat. also im very drained </3

this sequence in the sandy amv makes me insane. btw. dovekit and ivykit’s blissful little kitten ignorance, just happy to enjoy each other’s company, the soft light coloring and shading of the kitten images. and then the harsh transition to dark shading over their faces, each of them standing apart, having been torn from one another due to their horrible mentors.

ivypool’s look of resentment and disgust towards dovewing for the cards she was dealt, and dovewing is just…. tired. she was distanced from ivypool so young, any chance they had to confide in one another is gone. now ivypool is just one more angry face, one more cat who’s expectations dovewing has to manage. she wants to help ivypool but it’s a thankless task and ivypool hates her for it anyways.

there’s no winning for dovewing

I don't understand why people are hating on Hunter's new palisman??? Like Hunter never had HIS OWN palisman. Flapjack was Caleb's, found Hunter, and CHOSE him. There was a whole episode about adopting abandoned/lost palisman. Or did y'all forget??

The fact that Hunter made a new palisman doesn't mean that Flapjack has been forgotten. Flapjack gave their life to save Hunter, was Hunter's first friend, helped Hunter understand wild magic - Hunter wouldn't forget that. Waffles is Hunter's true palisman. Like he carved Waffles (based on context obviously). So yes he essentially has a "second palisman" but if you think about it he never had his own to begin with. Flapjack chose him, he was a friend and a guide for Hunter. He saved Hunter and helped Hunter save himself.

Also there's literally a proper Flapjack grave and they all have Flapjack tattoos I highly doubt they'd ever forget him.

had a really incredible moment this evening. went to my campus art market where one of my friends was selling the tank top i'm wearing - another friend bought it for me and i'm so overjoyed to have it. usually a fit that leans more Traditionally Masculine feels like a costume but tonight it just felt deeply correct and honest and warm. took the opportunity to take some indulgent little pictures because i do not think i have Ever looked more like myself. so happy.

Your Baelon post is making me think of him living vicariously through the relationship of his sons, twisting Daemon into a version of him who Can Save His Brother. Bonus points if it’s girl!Daemon bc then there’s the Alyssa flavor also leaking in. Maybe even a bit more grooming there, who’s to say.

oooh yes yes very good… add into this i think what @atopvisenyashill said about how aemon and baelons relationship Mightve not been as incestous or codependent (at least aemon to baelon) as say, daemon and viserys. by almost pushing, or encouraging his kids into a relationship with each other he can live out the relationship he never got to have with aemon. maybe some delusions that if theyre Together. it will save viserys from aemons fate. (aemon died because he was Alone. if baelon was there he couldve saved him. he knows it)

viserys reminds baelon of aemon, sure hell never be the warrior aemon was, but hes bookish, quiet, kind. so baelon is projecting his trauma from his brothers death onto daemon, the son that takes more after himself and his mother. shaking daemon awake in the middle of the night, hes crying, wasted, telling him over and over he cant ever let anything happen to his brother. he has to always protect him. telling daemon hell be lost without him. pushing that fear of his brothers death onto daemon as well. only making them more codependent on each other. maybe he starts personally training him too. trying to turn daemon into the perfect guard dog for viserys. maybe sometimes during these sparing sessions baelon starts to get a little emotionally overwhelmed, starts going much harder on daemon than he should. beats the shit out of his 11 year old son. yelling at him in the dirt that hell never be able to save his brother like this. later that night viserys is bathing daemon/getting him ready for bed/mothering him in a way he probably shouldnt. he sees the bruises, asks what happened, asks if their father did that to him. and maybe daemon snaps at him. maybe gets a little physically aggressive with him. his father loves him and hurts him, so… the cycle continues

and god if its GIRL!daemon???? baelon trying to recreate alyssa in his daughter so she can marry his son (so she can come back to life), and his kids can be JUST like him and alyssa :) and maybe until daemons ready to marry viserys she can keep him company. whos to say.

A self portrait! Originally a Rametta drawing I took a photo of myself to get the looking up and away from darkness, but I struggled with altering my features to make it look like her, and well I'm also trying this whole looking forward and on the bright side, so I just made it me!

I've been really enjoying this style, partly because the monochrome means I just need to focus on the values and not colour, and also because drawing so closely from refrences is my artist comfort zone, and while I love so many of the drawings where I have pieced together refrences and applied my prior experience to creat something new, nothing quite reaches the ease and satisfaction of faithfully bringing an image to life. I think a hiatus is the best time to go back to what I love drawing the most<3

[ganondoodle]

in all honesty, im feeling a bit burned out on totk, the more i think about it the more i dislike its story and lore, i dont know what to make of it it being so loved by everyone else makes me feel like theres something wrong about me :/ gonna try and take a step back from it all
