my dumb fuck ass just spent 30 minutes trying to find Save Us White Girl and caved and "help white girl bg3" immediately returned it via google,,,,, had help white girl, white girl help stuck in my head,,,,,

THIS MADE ME LAUGH SO MUCH TBH I CANNOT BELIEVE IT CAN IMMEDIATELY BE FOUND LIKE THAT???? everyday this comic finds its way back to me and i'm unsure if i'll ever be able to outdo it... it might be my magnum opus, i fear... (this is a good thing)

What if Leo and Usagi kiss under a mistletoe. Will they actually do it?

(For those who have not seen the Christmas Aliens episode; Raph’s operating a movable mistletoe to help Casey get a kiss from April and Mikey is missing for most of the Christmas night, getting chased around the city by some thieves).

Well… no. Not yet anyway and for quite some time.

It’s 2004, world wasn’t very kind to gay people back then, or helped much with figuring things out for young queers (I would know, I was one). He still needs some time to precess. He just found his first best friend and he’s cool and strong and makes him happy and that’s all he wants to think about rn.

On the other hand feudal Japan was surprisingly okay with two men being involved romantically (despite the problematic side of things… good place to remind everyone 03 Usagi is a teen as well), so he’s a little confused by Leo’s mixed messages.

It’s okay, they’r still kids figuring things out. And when they will, there’ll be time for kisses.

Comic that happens later that night (that I posteed before).

Part of 🟢 Leo gets Overwhelmed au🟢

[somegrumpynerd]

Oh my god. I wanna hit something THEY'RE SO FUCKING CUTE ARHHARGHHAGHA HHHGHYH TUHHHH

OH MY GOD HE'S SO PRECIOUS I MUST PET HIM HE'S SO STOOPID AND GOOFFYY AND ARGHHHHHH

FUCK. HIS BEADY LITTLE EYES FFGGFFFFG HE MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COST

Ahsukdbsbjkb I'm so glad you like them!! They're one of my favourites hehe :D

Ignore the fact that I almost forgot to draw them cause I got so caught up planning sprites for everybody else lol

Unfortunately you cannot pet Killer (yet) because he will bite, but you can hold Cross as much as you want (he still doesn't purr but he is having a good time I promise) (ignore the tears he's just not used to so much attention)

I just saw your post on Mikey doing angry stimms and had to ask for more /nf since this is the first time I've seen someone draw angry stimms for a character (it's not that common from my perspective)

Thank you- love your artstyle so much!!! :D

(P.s. I also get angry stimmys too sometimes)

Aww- thank you so much for this ask! I am really, really happy you liked it!! And yeah I feel like angry stims aren't talked about as much...

Anyways I was really super excited to draw more- still using stims that I have done, though these are a little more uh... aggressive? I wanted to preface this by saying that I do these gently, or they are stims that I've replaced with something else hehe :)

For my angry stims a lot of it is based on frustration so it's kinda a lot of flailing? Like aggressive shaking. The biting one isn't something I've done in a while- and is one that I would try to do gently (would not recommend that one lol), and the punching of the thigh is something I tend to do (gently) when I'm hella frustrated with homework :)

[batbabydamian]

Hey, I started reading Robin son of Batman because of your recommendation (I literally have a print of your post on my phone to not forget lol). Honestly? One of the best things I ever read!!!

Thank you for opening my eyes! Damian has been one of my favorite characters for over a year, but I didn't read/watch much of him because of school, life (and probably an executive dysfunction in the mix).

Maya is incredible. I loved her.

I haven't finished all the issues yet, but do you have any other recommendations?

WAH this makes me so happy, i'm glad you still gave it a shot even with how busy life is!! ;v;

i’d love to give reccs, and i’ll try to go a beginner friendly route! tbh you can pick up whatever here, but since you've read R:SOB i’d immediately follow up with Batman and Robin (2011) #1-8! this first arc is what’s referred to in Maya’s introduction, and it's just. so good.

Batman Incorporated (2012) #1-10

[twentyfivemiceinatrenchcoat]

your writing style is gorgeous omg. i've always wanted to write in such a beautiful way, how in the world do you do it ?!

ANONNNNNNNNN ………………..

you’re . WAY too kind ….. thank you sm ……. that’s very sweet of you to say 🥹🥹🥹 i think there are a million ways to write ’beautifully’ really but i mostly just rely on my prose …. imagery and descriptions and so on . the only writing advice i can give you is honestly just to read !!! which sounds boring maybe but . it’s true :’) if you read fics or books or poems or whatever your vocabulary will naturally expand, and poetry in particular can give you a lot of inspo in regards to imagery …. basically, just reading pretty writing will make you better at writing it yourself <3

[zeldalizzy]

your art is so cool! I love how you make it look so much like the source material with your own style and vibe woven in. Thanks for making awesome clean content for people like me to enjoy!!!

and good luck on your finals!

AHHH THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU 💕

anon, oh my goodness 🥹 This is so so so sweet, as soon as I saw your message it made me smile and I teared up a little! This is so encouraging to me -- I am SO thankful that you love my art and that you enjoy it!

I have a lot of younger siblings/younger cousins, so making clean, wholesome art is really important to me! I'm so glad you noticed this and that is so kind of you to say 🩵

Thank you so much! I am almost done with my exams, and then I get to go home! 🥳

HAAAAAAA MUKIDASHITE PA PA PA TEREKUSAI NE LEFT SIDE RIGHT SIDE HAAAAA TSUKIDASHITE PA PA PA HAHA

[somegrumpynerd]

Before I forgetttttt

So color thinks Killer is brainwashed, BUT, what if one time when Killer's soul is normal and he can feel and think for himself again, what if they are chilling at Color's place and then Killer gets up and says something like "I have to go home, don't want to worry dad"

What would Color think ? Would he rethink everything because "wait, why did you call him dad ???" Or would he think that damn, this brain washing is even worse than he thought because apparently Nightmare makes them call him dad ?? Which is weird even for Nightmare that could be a manipulation method ??

Okay that's it byyyeee

OH I LOVE THINKING ABOUT THESE GUYS OKAY SO!!!!!

(I'm still new to Color so if I'm wicked super wrong let me know!)

I feel like no matter what Killer said about Nightmare, Color wouldn't believe it. If somebody's been held captive so long they no longer think they want to leave, of course they're going to say they like living there. No matter how much Color cares about him, I think he has to consider Killer an unreliable narrator as far as his own situation is concerned.

But! Color's main concern is giving Killer his autonomy back and helping him learn to make his own choices. This unfortunately means if Killer keeps choosing to go back to Nightmare, Color has to respect it.

I feel like the only way he would begin to slowly unwind and trust that Nightmare had good intentions would be to see it for himself repeatedly. It's going to take more than a few good turns to prove that he isn't just putting on an act when Color is watching and then turning the whip on them again when nobody's looking. That's going to be hard to set up though since neither of them want to be around the other very much lol

I do think a good start for it would be Nightmare giving Killer the choice though. Like, not that they don't get to choose things regularly, but Killer isn't really one to think much about what he wants or come forward with it so Nightmare kind of assumes he's content and doesn't really think to check in with him. So if he actually made a point of asking Killer what he wanted and he said he wanted to spend a day with Color, I think that would be a good start. Obviously Color's not gonna jump to trusting him after one day, but hearing that Nightmare is also giving Killer his own choices and actually respecting them might give him a bit more reason to trust him.

That said, the image of Color's face as he asks "he makes you call him dad??" is sending me lol

[nerdallwritey]

I fear you have ruined me and my ability to consume Astarion content after your writing. 😭😭😭 it's so good!

OMG STOP IT, YOU'RE TOO KIND!!! I'm so glad you like that way I write him!! 9/10 doctors agree you must tease the dorky vampire for his own enrichment 🫡

No but seriously, THANK YOU for reading!! I have so much fun writing these and I love hearing about when people have a good time reading them!! :)
