#third eye for the end times

Here in the end times, it feels like everyone got a little weird.
That'll happen, you know? In a city of bondage rooftop pirates, predatory psychic business suits, and tacticool kindness cults; in a world where the sun's gone all high contrast, low brightness; in a time where isolation is a synonym for safety ... let's just say the 'Overton Window of Normality' has shifted.
Yep, when the light broke, we all got a bit strange.
All except for Simon, that is.
Simon is perfectly normal. Simon is swell. Simon still stops by Nero's for a coffee in the mornings and the Coffee Mafia *serve him* (I think just out of confusion).
Simon goes into his co-working space three days a week. Sometimes he works on his screenplay. Other times he goes through long-dead databases and de-duplicates records. If you ask him why, he'll just say that he gets tired of working from home all the time and needs a change of scenery.
Simon keeps a spreadsheet to track the good places for salvage in London-in-Darkness. He has different tabs for foodstuffs, fuel, clothes, makeshift weaponry, and a dozen other useful categories. He sorts them according to quality, abundance, known predators, level of contrast corruption, and convenience for his commute. Ask him to show you his v-lookups sometime.
If you haunt the high buildings like I do, then you'll see him sometimes, scuttling about in his scruffy converse, jeans and hoodie. If he sees you see him, he'll wave.
It's not that the various predators, gangs and high-contrast memetic hazards avoid him, exactly. They continue their usual routes; their patterns of search, destroy and throw-a-wobbly. But somehow they just ... miss him. He'll be overlooked or have a miraculous lucky escape. Occasionally, he'll get captured for a few days and spend the time working on his yoga routine, before the next localised burst of spectrum distortion gives him a chance to scarper.
You might be tempted, if you run across him, to join Simon.
You might hear him say things like: "Why don't we pool our resources" or "Let's catch up sometime" or "I've set up a mini golf course in the Tate Modern, if you fancy it" or "Do you want to listen to some Bruno Mars? I think I have one of the last unscratched CDs."
I urge you: do not listen to him.
He means you no ill will. Simon is *normal* and *nice*.
But nice is not kind. Normal is not benevolent. And sometimes, people overlook that the world will hurt those less lucky than them without really thinking about it. And it is *normal* to protect yourself in that way. It is *nice* to gloss over difficult things.
Simon lives a live that is orthogonal to the rest of us. His plane of existence is ever so slightly out of sync.
Yours isn't.
He is a last unchanging remnant of a world that was.
You aren't.
If you meet him, you will want to follow him. His is a world of order and predictability, of self-care days and flexi-time, of secret film screenings and hidden menus in bougie coffee shops. You will be enchanted by the way he talks about getting plenty of natural light, the way he complains about his commute, and how he still tips twelve percent.
But I beg you: do not heed his Simon song. For it is the song of Bruno Mars and you will be dashed on the funk rocks.
Don't go with him, the world that keeps him safe does not exist anymore.
And when I see Simon scuttling through the streets with a new friend, I am sometimes glad that it is gone.

doodle machete’s eyes (only his eyes cause I can’t draw t he rest of him) hope you like it :)
.
#aa thank you!#these have a lot of character even if they're just eyes#the first one has the best eyelid highlight or whatever you'd call it#but I think my personal favorite is the third#it's just got that perfect tired look in it#the eyebrow covers a part of the upper lid the same way I draw it#gift art#juniperberryjuice#don't belittle yourself I'm sure you'd do bang-up job#plus in the end it's the thought that counts if you put in the time and effort to make something for me I'm grateful

Besties at first sight
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#Poorly drawn MDZS#MDZS#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#lan wangji#nie huaisang#NHS makes his first appearance! Once of my favourite dynamics is platonic NHS and WWX so I'm thrilled to revisit these scenes#They are adhering to the fruity/outcast teed survival guide strategy#which is to lock eyes with the other fruity/outcast kid and establish a bestie moment#they will have a strong bond until the end of the summer semester and then never speak again#such is life!#If you are wondering why JC isn't in the third panel; its because he fully reverted to the wet sock he is and is on the floor out of frame#Next time: I condense several episodes of teen wangxian into a three panel format

'Late At Night, When The Nightingale Sings' doodles, because Pathetic Wet Cat Danny is the best Danny to practice drawing young faces with (and expressions).
#danny fenton is not the ghost king#dpxdc#dpxdc crossover#dpxdc fanart#dpxdc art#dpxdc batdad#dpxdc fanfic#blood blossom au#my art#in that third one the intent was that he's being held up by bruce like a cat. hence the hands. but i didnt wanna draw hands again so thats#why they disappeared. coincidentally the third one is also one of my favorites bc of how the everything came out.#danny can't force a convincing smile to save his life <33 especially now after 4 months of isolation#also!! duos practice! i wanted to draw danny with bruce because they are. everything to me. danny is wearing one of bruce's hoodies in that#second one. they are soft and comfy. he has frequent nightmares since his accident that only got worse after his family died#so he doesn't sleep that well unless he's around other people.#i need to buy an anatomy book and like. soon. i neeEEEd to figure out arms and legs when they're not in standard posing.#im coasting on reference photos and a dream here.#that second to last one is a(n attempted) drawing of Danny at the end of the prequel oneshot 'before the nightingale sings' that explains#how his family died. it was january. he was 13 and a month shy of turning 14. his hair is somewhat shaggy bc its a 4 month time difference#between family death and meeting battinson and hair doesn't typically grow that fast unless some kind of serum is being used and yall know#🫵 ballad of lucy gray baird mention!!! thats a blood blossom behind danny in that drawing. its eye is staring at danny. altho it too big#that one is another favorite but its docked points bc i dont like how his head shape turned out. his expression turned out great tho

less of horrordust eating face and killer watches more of them mauling eachother. also killer watches
#horrordust need more beef smh#triglycercule werent you just months ago saying you loved domestic horrordust#a man can believe in two statements and have both of them be true#dust wants to be punished for what he did. horror doesn't. they both try to drag eachother down in the process#killer is a third entity entirely. arent they all seperate entities. yes but he's different for some reason idk#killer has that feeling of zoning out mid trio hang out but the other 2 guys keep chilling without you and it's lowkey nice#killer i love trios because i can just dissociate and stare at a tree while they entertain eachother sans#the horrordust beef would be mutual in my eyes WHAT DO YOU MEAN DUST HATES KILLER BUT DISMISSES HORROR#are we talking about the same horror here. the same horror that tricked his papyrus into feeding and eating human meat#the same horror that tricked HIS ENTIRE SNOWDIN into eating humans#the same horror that purposefully taunts and plays around with the humans he kills#the same horror that is KNOWN for being manipulative and unnecessarily cruel for no fucking reason#yeah dust would hate the shit out of him highkey#both of them have which one of us was justified in what we did competitions#winner: NOBODY (it's killer it's killer that ends up winning that fight)#i mean horror would hate dust too i feel like this one is more obvious#KILLING papyrus. KILLING the underground. not being able to withstand the resets instead of choosing to kill#oh horror would be so fucking insensitive about resets to dust and killer#hes never experienced it he wouldnt know how bad it was and him being him....... he's gonna be a DICK#i think horror would hate the concept of phantom papyrus too because like#it's proof that dust did kill paps and for some reason he likes this FAKE version more than the real thing????#dust should be sadder about killing paps in horror's eyes (technically EYE but wtvr)#they maul eachother and also eat face is the hidden 3rd part of this post. and this time killer joins#tricule rant#killer sans#horror sans#dust sans#murder time trio#utmv#sans au

Something something about the Third Doctor and the fate of Tantalus. You're trapped in one place. Everything you want, that you once took for granted is right there in front of you, you can see it you can reach for it but you can never have it. You will never attain it on your own. Your fate is dependent on the mercy or cruelty of others and you hate it and you rage against it but you can’t do anything, your defiance is treated like nothing but a childish tantrum but you refuse to beg, you won’t get that desperate no matter how long you’re trapped here, no matter how low you’re brought down. You stand among humans and you look human but you’re not, you’re an animal in a cage with them and you’re the only one who can see the bars. Gnawing and hacking at them to no avail. And yet all you can do is wait and hope and try and fail in an endless loop until an outside force interferes to free you from your prison. The carrot and the stick. How does it feel to be on the receiving end?
#even when his exile is lifted and he gets his tardis back he still can’t get jamie and zoe back#he’ll never be able to#the doctor’s always lost companions but until that point they’d always chosen to leave#this was the first instance where he lost them#no not lost they were TAKEN from him#the doctor was ripped apart mentally and physically and emotionally#and he has to live with that#knowing that they’re living their lives without him as if nothing happened#(and even in jamie’s case he’s not sure considering Jamie was basically dropped into the middle of a battlefield)#only that he can never see them again#bc they won’t know him they won’t remember any of the adventures the fun the quiet moments spent together#he’s the only one who knows who remembers#and what he can’t bear more than anything is having them look at him with no recognition in their eyes#having them ask him who he is and not reacting in any way when he says “i’m the doctor”#not to mention how easily he was exiled and punished#he triumphed over daleks and cybermen and so many other creatures#but in the face of the time lords he was rendered helpless so easily#they trapped him took his tardis and his connection and his knowledge and his companions away and forced him to regenerate just like that#and now the time lords are aware of his existence and probably keeping an eye on him#in case they need him for anything (aka jobs to do for them)#reduced to a boy put in time out and then an errand boy#doctor who#classic who#third doctor#3rd doctor#my thoughts#wow that’s a lot of tags i’m sorry#i got carried away#i just can’t stop thinking about the tragedy of it all#in two’s ending and three’s beginning and their companions

no theme this time for @gloomiegalaxie 's femboy friday, so i tried doing a empire records inspired one! tho it could also be (loosely) 90s theme too
#ts4#the sims 4#gloomie's femboy friday#please ignore boston's lack of boots in the third one. i had to remove them because the auto-height was messing with the pose position lol#feat. vincenzo as an annoying customer#sadly i could not find a way to include crux this time. thought i had poses that would work for what i was planning but i was wrong :'(#but yeah enjoy this reanimated heart au where they end up in a universe that is always the 90s lmao#boston valentine#black lumaban#vincenzo maria fontana#u can tell this is an au because vincezo would probably kill boston dead for rolling his eyes at him#one of these days i will get a decent screenshot of crux... but for now it's probably best to leave him in the primordal ooze. for now.

As a joke Gojo and Geto stated "dating" as a way to get couple deals from food places. Neither of them knows if the other is joking anymore.
#jjk#jujutsu kaisen#satosugu#stsg#gojo satoru#geto suguru#gojo flinging his arms over geto#darling you said you'd wait outside for me#geto rolling his eyes#sorry dear#but he doesn't remove his arms#gojo fake hurt forgotten gives him a peck on the cheek#anyway what are we having?#hes having frankly too many burgers for a human to safely ingest at one time#geto just watches appalled wondering when the charade will end and he will be free of this mortification#but then gojo smiles at him midway through inhaling his third burger in as many minutes#and a little part of him hopes it never does

poetry might not convince me to pay attention or care about the medici family beyond necessity, but you CAN convince me to turn the spotlights directly onto lorenzo de' medici with phrasing like this. intimately linked. even wedded, you say. and with galeazzo maria sforza's named mentioned. fascinating choice of words.
Magnifico: the Brilliant Life and Times of Lorenzo de’ Medici, Miles J. Unger
#(staring intently at this phrasing) and with galeazzo maria sforza you say#its because galeazzo is here. im paying attention bc when any of the maria sforzas show up and im there baby#anyway i talk shit about the medici but i am singularly curious about guiliano. not for. medici reasons. he has such a read on#francesco de' pazzi it makes me write some really high drama soap opera plot bullshit#this isn't a joke. there's a version where they had summer time fling that ended like saltwater in the eyes#also i say pay attention beyond necessity. to clarify. i take my job as a medici hater seriously. i will read many texts abt them#admittedly its the other medicis im usually reading abt bc lorenzo is competing against the sforzas for my attention#i am. also. constructing an hbo renaissance conspiracy show in my head. you can't half ass the cast or the plot u know#not for a show that exists as vivid scenes in your imagination.#anyway i become intrigued by the medici when its connected to One Of My Guys. none of the medici are My Guys. there needs to be a third#none of the brigata except maybe braccio are my guys either. you need a sforza or one of machiavelli's guys

Undertale yellow flowey embroidery
This took about 40 hours, give or take a few
#I can tell you one thing#Embroidering while having arthritis is really not a piece of cake. When you hand cramps just by holding it at an angle.#At least I can be grateful for my empty schedule#Makes embroidering till the sun rises back up so much easier#Insomnia also helps with this task#I was listening to the ost while working on it and… Live reaction#Occupied turf is so good actually !? Why wasn’t it shown more often !? IT’S FIRE !?#I forgot I only did a pacifist so I got so confused when neutral Flowey came out…#A mother’s love ? Should’ve called this “I’m gonna fuck you up”#The number of time I got my ass handed back to me in this fight is not even funny#The first time is great. The second I only discern my favorites and the sudden change in style. By the third loop I can’t recognize shit#my brain is melting and my eyes are on fire…#Advantages on doing it during daytime. Eyes hurt less. Good stupid tv to listen to in the background Disadvantages. People#Advantages on doing it at night. Alone. Personally work better at night#Disadvantages. No good TV. Time goes by slower…? I don’t know maybe I’m just loosing it with those freaking petals#For reference one petal took me about 3 and a half hours. So yeah… I thought it would never end… Took out almost all my yellow.#When the line tangles itself in the back and you realize only close to the end of it that half went missing#So you have to go backward to entangle it and loose 30 mins because damn it#Cats are not helpful in any of those scenarios#Why do I feel the need to make the back perfect when nobody else but me will know#This is the last time I do one so big without thinking it through#Note to self. Don’t do it standing up when the cats are awake. She just destroyed my stomach#I think i’m losing it#Back after a few weeks#God this white thread is doing my head in… I’m willing to bet my leg half the time I spent on the face was me untangling it.#I’m almost done. It’s finally over. Dark brown took exactly 4 h and 13 mins#undertale#undertale yellow#embroidery#I’m thinking of doing Boris the wolf next. Because I just found the perfect rendition to put on my wall

do you have headcanons for the two sillies eye conditions. Why do they need glasses, what are the specifics (I don’t know anything about them)
i do actually!
for simon, his glasses dont go over his eyes and he doesnt need to really like see out of them, so im like pretty sure theyre some kind of reading glasses. or something.. or maybe like a sometimes glasses where he just needs them sometimes? basically , hes not blind enough to be blind as a bat, but he does need them because (if i remember correctly i may be wrong and stupid) hes been shown to fix his glasses to look at something. something though, thats built on complete head canon and not built with any factual evidence expect for the fact im delusional but i think his eyes are sensitive to light.. mostly bc in like two eps his glasses were accidentally a lil darker (kinda like glasses that arent sun glasses but dim light) i have like no reason to believe this but uh.. yeah
for betty, she’s probably blind as hell. for one shes never seen without her glasses ever, so its glasses that she has to wear to see. also, her glasses are quite big and if im not mistaken very thick. so she probably is really blind for them to be that thick. i wouldn’t go as far to say she cant see ANYTHING, but like me, she cant see a hand right infront of her face without getting blurry.
my head canons for their glasses strength is
betty- negative 5 or 6. for you to make sense of this kleos, im like a negative 4 so think a lil bit than me. she also probably got glasses at a very young age (like early elementary, kindergarten or 1st grade maybe?) and probably got bullied for it.
simon- positive 1.7 probably. i wouldn’t say a positive 2, but its definitely enough where he needs glasses 90% of the time to see up close. and of course his eye sensitivity to light.
#petrigrof#fionna and cake#adventure time#golbetty#simon petrikov#betty grof#eyes#oooo i have a third eye#i miss these stupid farts so much#WHY CANT THEY BE HAPPY#its ok though bc now i have more room to talk about how sad they are#everything works out in the end#glasses#yay#uhm#ok#bye gang
