#this could not be any more the opposite of the drawing I posted yesterday. i'm a man of many contrasting vibes.

Man, how I should start explaining this odd 'n' random piece, yet again... Well, yesterday, I finished my first 100 % playthrough (did all the trophies 'n' collected the stuff) of one of my favourite games, Ōkami, I started 2 years ago on PC... (I got 3 copies of this game: PS2, PS4, and PC.) I'm not totally sure but it was at least my 4th time I finished the game but I have never completed everything, just collected all the stray beads once before. Oh, and I have never done all the trophies of any game before; I don't know if it was worth it still but I learned more about the game at least. I just see that I don't get much joy from getting those trophies, it's just something to do.

But yeah, that game has an unique art style and it inspired me to draw this piece. It's pretty much a mixture of styles but I tried to have somewhat Japanese vibe. Oh, and I don't actually speak Japanese but I have tried to study it a bit, should try it again, so I know some little stuff; it would be my 6th (natural) language I have actually studied (excluding my mother tongue) if I did that (I also study programming languages). So, I'm sorry for the possible mistakes here, but what's reading there is supposed to be Molluck's name in Japanese, as converted into it, Morukku Gurukkon. I tried to see if there's actual translation for it in the Japanese versions but I couldn't find such, so yeah, this was the best I could do. And that Slig is saying 'No!' but informally.

Oh, and I used an unsual way to draw this since it's been so long since I did lineart using my old Photoshop... It just had the best brushes for this style, so had to use it. I just know like nothing about custom brush stuff... I also cannot actually use pen pressure stuff since I draw with a mouse, so I do the effect by myself. Frankly, I still feel like I have no idea how to do digital art or what my style is in general... So, I just draw something in a way I just feel like. I feel like I always draw Molluck in a different way...

Frankly, I kinda like this piece more since it looks less like I did it... But I still drew this. This kinda reminds me of those moments when you are drawing IRL and someone asks you 'Did you draw that?!'... I'm not sure what to think of such a question... I just have had those moments for multiple times, since I was a child. I also just don't know what to really think of my art... I still feel quite bad about myself, making me feel even sorry for posting this piece... If someone doesn't know, I suffer from severe self-hatred and I don't even know why... I have also just never been pleased with my art... It's just so frustrating and discouraging... Well, they say that 'one man's trash is another man's treasure'... I just tend to see my stuff as trash and feel like I got no actual talent... But I'm trying my best to learn to think the opposite since it's not long when I felt like I should take down all my pieces, yet again, just end doing art completely... But well, I still wish to create stuff and it often requires artistic stuff, so I gotta just keep going I guess. I feel so sorry, even it's not my fault that I have this disorder... But I wanna thank you all for your kindness and understanding with this toward me!

day 15 - music ! i have quite a bit for this one. item 1: unfinished storyboard i made a while ago! the song is lonely eyes by the front bottoms :) item 2: lyric comic i made during digital art class! it's a different au from what i usually post of john and colin but still. song is nights like these by pigeon pit :) item 3: drawing based on lyrics ! yippee. song is tall black trees by pigeon pit.

And here's a character playlist for the both of them: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvMPESsWlYRcveDMBU7vjSBoK2srwEm6x

And a lil guide to it (i could elaborate on these song choices but i won't): Colin (gen) - mamma told me, oh you, hell above, milk crates, mushrooms, bitter choco decoration Colin (towards John) - nerve, the vampire, my corpse friend, ghost boys, darkest heart John (gen) - trees ii, mawce, brave as a noun, goodbye declaration, shadow (i'm breaking down) John (towards Colin) - i don't smoke, too close, lonely eyes, overgrown garden, lost kitten, vampire empire, bathtub mermaid, fool, poison, disasterology, real men, world.execute(me);, parasite, opium, it's you, a human's touch, icicles, it should've been me, i needed you/you needed time, why didn't you stop me, the desolation of spring, the girl who faded away, tall black trees Dawsey (about him in any sense) - the bird song, twelve feet deep, awkward conversations, jet pack blues, bulletproof love misc (NOT just vibes based but i can't put a category to it) - killer (could be anyone), weathergirl (probably john but dawsey has a heavy association with rain), i left my towel... (same as weathergirl)

(prompt list)

CWs for content below in the lyric comic and the storyboard: smoking, alcohol use, implied alcoholism, suicide attempt in one of them (it's reiterated right above), just. a lot of angst lmao

but first, here's the drawing without the lyrics in the way :) he's in colin's room! lots of ways to tell that here lmao. also i was initially coloring/shading with my nightlight on but thankfully it actually looks closer to what i was trying to achieve without it on lmao

next is lonely eyes storyboard! CW: alcohol use, smoking, implied alcoholism, suicide attempt, rough falling out, and john has his top off on the last page. he's very underweight and has s/h scars (though there just kinda lines here). so if you're uncomfortable with that maybe scroll past.

one of the panels on the third page was added in like yesterday. bc i forgot a line somehow. anyway i think this song summarizes their story p well. never finished the boards though. you might recognize dawsey from prev days but there's also jackson (in the fedora but not john) and their boss (guy with the hair bun)

next is the night like these lyric comic! CW: smoking, alcohol use, implied alcoholism. couple of idiots thinking they're not doing enough for the other. artstyle goes back and forth between two alternatives lmao

my favorite bit is how the "you" points to john :) since the concept behind this story is an aro (bisexual) and an ace (homoromantic) trying to navigate a strange relationship in the 1960s i felt like the "fuck i'm sorry you feel all alone" line really fit. also even in the choruses i devoted to each of them you can tell how they're opposites. like with the framing of pages 3 and 7 specifically. this lyric comic is also where i figured out a lot of things. like colin's nose and how his ahoge always points to john. man i could say a lot more about this lyric comic

Pls don't judge banner, I'm gonna come up with something better for the actual fic!

WIP WORKING WEEK DAY 4: WHEN IN ROME AKA EUROTRIP AKA EUROTRASH. I had to do 49 sentences - unsure how many this is but enjoy! Tagging @rmd-writes and @clottedcreamfudge for interest and noting that the first chapter of this mammoth fic is due to be posted in mid to late September. Also, @athousandrooms VERY KINDLY took a commission to do some art for it, so it's coming together like the RWRB fic of my dreams right now! Avengers, assemble!

Henry is being weird. Alex knows this, despite having met Henry fairly recently. He also knows that they’re both completely aware of the fact that Alex was two seconds away from making out with Henry’s stupidly beautiful face yesterday, before Henry had the audacity to swim away from him.

If there’s one thing that Alex isn’t super fucking great at, it’s dealing with rejection. Instead, he decides to be incredibly immature about it.

The previous morning he had practically dragged Henry out of his twin bed, eager to get going on the Azure trail. This morning, he sulks, pulls the covers over his head and refuses to come out, even when it becomes apparent that Henry has gone on an early morning adventure to the local bakery and the bread smells amazing.

Also, Henry has coffee, which is basically vital for Alex’s survival.

Still, Alex can barely stand the sight of Henry – all stupidly soft, blond hair, pink lips and kind blue eyes – because all it does is remind him of how much he’d love to mess him up. In hindsight, Alex can’t quite believe he ever thought he was straight. It all seems so obvious now.

He eventually emerges from the bed and makes his way downstairs, squinting at the sunshine already streaming through the huge wall-to-ceiling windows. This house is kind of insane – definitely the nicest place Alex envisages staying on this trip – and he feels guilty that his first thought was that he doesn’t feel too bad about making Henry stay in a hostel. Without it, he doubts Henry would ever have seen the inside of anything less than a five star hotel, so it was probably character building. 

He has questions, mostly about who the fuck Henry’s grandmother is and why she loves Brené Brown so much, but he can tell Henry is hesitant to talk about it. Alex counts this as a win for his emotional intelligence – something June has in spades and loves to claim Alex completely missed – and wonders whether the Instagram influencers are right. Perhaps travelling the world does change you.

In any case, it’s not changing Alex’s mind on Henry. He’s irresistible and Alex can’t stand the sight of him.

“Good morning, Alex,” Henry says politely from behind the expansive kitchen counter, looking up from his phone as he puts the piece of bread he’s eating down on the plate in front of him. “Sleep well?”

Alex makes a non committal noise in reply and deposits himself onto a bar stool opposite, reaching out to claim the untouched coffee next to Henry’s right hand.

“Wait,” Henry says abruptly, pulling the coffee back out of Alex’s reach. “You can tell me what’s bothering you first.”

Alex scowls. “It’s fucking early and you’re holding my coffee hostage,” he groans. “I need that.”

Henry raises one perfectly arched eyebrow. Alex spirals about it, then wonders what the fuck is wrong with him. It’s an eyebrow. “Then I suppose you’re lucky I bought you one. Come on. Out with it.”

Alex’s under-caffeinated brain goes through a variety of scenarios in a surprisingly short amount of time. He could be honest – he wants to be honest, wants to know why Henry doesn’t want him – but at the same time, he has another three weeks to kill in Europe and if he makes things awkward now he might be alone for most of them. He likes Henry – way more than he cares to admit to himself – and he doesn’t particularly want to give him up.

“Christ,” Henry breathes, drawing Alex’s attention, and when he looks up, there’s a soft expression on Henry’s face. “You look tortured.”

“I am tortured,” Alex protests, leaning into the sympathy. “I’m severely under-caffeinated and if I don’t get my hands on that coffee in the next—”

“You’re impossible,” Henry says, but even as he rolls his eyes, it looks fond. Alex has to bite his lip to stop himself from grinning. The coffee gets passed over without further interrogation.

[okimargarvez]

What if the writers at CME still are planning on Garvez being end game, but they're doing all this the draw it out. They know people love garvez and they're doing this to make people watch and drive up their viewing numbers? I could see that being true. I mean i kept watching before for Garvez, I'd still do it now if they left me with any hope

Hey, Anon!

I understand your (and even the point of view of many people) thought. I don't say I'm not agree with you, I mean, it's possible that they give us crumbs to make garvez shippers watch.

But, the thing, in my opinion... hope I will not seem "brutal", because it's not my intention, but I have to be honest.

I was talking about it yesterday, with @veronicafiore88 . I just guess, because I don't have any data. And I guess that we, the true garvez shippers were... not even a quarter of the whole audience who watches Criminal Minds (Evolution and the previous seasons). Maybe even less.

But. There is a but. If they finally make garvez totally canon (because for me is already canon, even the triangle thing that Messer mentioned in last article... is a weird way to imply they are (canonically) romantic involved...

Anyway, I was saying... if they would make garvez canon, I think that 90% (probably more) of public would be happy for that. They are funny and cute. It's a fact. I speak considering the tweets and opinions I read/saw in years about them, written by not garvez shippers.

But if they don't... the "not-garvez-shippers" would just say... "oh, too bad" and keep watching.

Like my mother. She thinks they are cute but is not crazy like me. She watches CM for the crime, as for the all CSI series. She can ship sometimes, but she focuses especially on the crime part. I started watch CM for same reason (I made her watch CM, to be honest XD) and then I fell in love with characters.

I know that I will keep watching until they are on the same series and both alive. This is my decision, but I understand who thinks the right opposite. I will watch it for the whole BAU family, for crime and for garvez. And if you read any of my post you know how much crazy I'm for them.

But I decided, in last years, to not let a show (and not also other things) take me down again. So, I just take the good things I get, I focus on them, instead of the bad. I swear I do the same in real life for harder situation. And it helped me a lot. Like, for last episode I thought, the day before: okay, so if we don't get anything, as I guess, I will not have to spend all afternoon making my analysis... but then, if we get it... too bad, I'd have to. 😂

This doesn't mean I'm totally happy that they decided to take this direction, when in 15x10 it seemed canon confirmed, and not only in the show, even in all the followed interviews. But I really enjoy to see them on the screen. And I think that we got a lot in this finale. From Penelope side. She is about to join him.

And... they are just working on the scripts... all is still possible. I just wish and pray that writers (and Messer) will understand that make them a real couple will not "ruin" their dinamic... I mean... they know how works a real couple? My husband and I have a garvez dinamic and we still teasing each other, arguing...

One Italian series (because if you don't know, I'm Italian) I watched, have writers with the same "concern". I mean, they were scared that putting the protagonist and the man that was in love with her since first episode (she reached him slowly) would make people stop to watch. That the pleasure was in the waiting. Then... don't know what made them change their mind. But they did it. They given us 1,5 season with them as a couple and... this was a partially crime show. The dinamic was still there. The protagonist is a teacher that ends to solve crime. She met this charming commissar and... you know. She made her life at risk many time. And... ops, she did it even when she was with him romantically. The dinamic changed, yes. Because when they were a couple, he had the right to be so worried for her, while, before... he could do just like Luke, holding himself to not do more (because she was married and has a daughter, but her husband betrayed her two times...). I lost the path, as always. The point is: the writers of this series got that couple doesn't mean end of teasing. I wish that CM ones will do the same.

And meanwhile I will rewatch garvez scenes many times and making my stupid and also seriuous stuff.

Can I request the reader and Jack Russell oneshot with the pair of them being shy around one another but they have feelings for the other. But when the reader is danger with another werewolf, Jack comes to save her and feelings are professed?!?!

Protector

paring: Jack Russell x fem!reader

a/n: Hilliary! girl I am so excited about this request it is perfect and I hope you love it! and Happy (belated) Halloween to those who celebrate! 🎃 (I meant to post this yesterday but I fell asleep oops lol and I was busy today so I'm sorry this was so late, but I hope you like it!!) I might go back in later and edit it some more!

warnings: fluff, some blood description, unedited! please ignore any mistakes!

Walking in the woods was an excellent way to clear your head. You often had done this when things got too stressful. The cool autumn air when you inhaled made your lunges burn but it felt oddly good.

The dead leaves crunched against your boots as you trekked uphill and the wind blew softly through your hair. After the day you've had a walk was what you needed desperately. Nature always soothed you, growing up you would find escape in being outdoors.

For a while now you've had a crush on your closest friend Jack, but you were too scared to admit your feelings. You thought sometimes he would catch you staring at him for longer than normal or the sublet flirting you failed to do, but he never seemed to notice. You thought you were being so obvious but maybe Jack was just oblivious. He only saw you as a friend and you were forced to believe that was where you stood. Even if another guy came along in your life to draw you away from him, nobody would ever change the way you felt regarding Jack.

after a few hours of mindlessly walking, you hadn't realized the sun had begun to go down, you were too lost in your own thoughts to notice. Now you were really lost. You had left your phone at home stupidly thinking you weren't going to get very far. No one had no idea where you were and anything could happen to you out here. You looked up to the full moon glowing down on you and started to sense a panic rising in your chest. You were hopelessly lost and you cursed yourself for being so distracted.

Your body was beginning to shiver under all your clothes but you kept on pushing in the opposite direction. How you could be so reckless to wander off alone you didn't know, everything was just so confusing for you right now.

A sudden rustling sound from the bushes makes you jump out of your skin. Abruptly a creature crawls out and looms its way toward you with its teeth bared, growling, and snarling like It wanted to harm you for no reason. Its fur stood up as it slowly approached you as you backed away. Fear washed over you as the beast got closer and closer until suddenly, another beast jumps in front of you starting down the other one. Its back is hunched over and its talons curl as it snarls at the other in a warning tone. You backed up into a tree as the two animals stared each other down. You watched in horror as they suddenly lurched and attacked one another, ripping at skin and fur savagely.

The one that stood in front of you ripped its claws into the other's back and it made a howling sound in pain. The other animal broke free of the other grip and cowered away into the forest. The beast just stood there heaving its chest up and down.

You tried to make an escape for it, but the beast snaps its head at you growling, and pounces toward you. You felt its claws dig into your wrists as you tried your very best to stay still. A single tear drips from the corner of your eye, as pain seeps through your arms and you let out a whimper. The beast lowers itself down to be face to face with you, its nose grazing yours as it sniffs you wildly. You stare into the creature's eyes and you see its pupils dilate. Your whole body shakes as the beast huffs then as if It acted another sent caught its attention. It leaped off of you and sprinted in another direction.

Shaken and confused more than ever, you got up from the stern ground. Attempting to settle your nerves as you pushed your way through the forest to find your way back home. Whatever that creature was, it almost seemed like it recognized you. Its eyes seemed vaguely familiar.

You shook your thoughts away and continued to walk clutching your jacket around your body. You still couldn't believe what happened, you had never had such an encounter before. You just hoped you could find your way back home quickly before those creatures found you again.

-

Morning came quicker than you thought. You had been lost all night and were exhausted beyond belief and wanted nothing more than to crawl into your soft bed and sleep for days.

The smell of smoke filled your nose, so you decided to follow it knowing there had to be someone nearby. You came to a camp in a clearing of trees and saw a fire going. Maybe whoever was camping out here could help you get back into town. As you got closer you saw a man sitting near the fire trying to keep warm as he rubbed his hands up and down his arms.

Wait, his features made you stop in your tracks. You'd recognize that messy brown-turning gray hair anywhere.

"Jack?" you call.

Jack's head turned in your direction at the sound of your voice reaching him.

"Y/N?" he frowns.

"what are you doing out here?"

"It's a long story,"

He motioned for you to come to sit next to him and you obeyed. Jack removed the blanket from off his shoulders and draped it over yours as soon as you sat down on the dewy grass.

"Something crazy happened last night," you shook your head wishing you could just forget it.

Jack had perked up at this, he remembered last night. Sometimes flashes of when he's in wolf form come back to him when he's human, and he recalled how he could smell your scent, it lingered with him for the rest of the time and now he knew why. You were there last night when he attacked that other wolf.

"What happened?"

"You wouldn't believe me,"

"Try me,"

You explained the two wolfs that attacked each other last night and how one of them held you down on the ground and then ran away.

"huh, that is weird,"

Jack had turned away from you and rubbed his hands together for warmth and attempted to work up his courage to tell you.

"Do you remember anything else?" he asks, turning back to you.

You shake your head. "although," you start. "there was something about the wolf that seemed familiar.."

Both your eyes connect and something clicks in your brain.

"Jack..?" you whisper.

Then you realize his eyes are the same as the beast that pounced on you last night. You honestly couldn't believe that Jack was a werewolf.

"Yes, it was me," he says, he read your expression clearly.

"why didn't you tell me?"

"Because I was afraid of what you'd think of me,"

That made you surprised. Your best friend was worried about what you'd think of him if you knew his truth. It threw you for a loop that he didn't trust you enough.

"Oh," is all you say. Jack catches the sadness in your voice and frowns.

"What's wrong?" he quizzed.

"Do you not trust me?"

The tone in your voice sounded broken no, hurt, and Jack felt devastated. He did trust you with his whole heart, but this was different. He'd have people he thought he had trusted in the past with this secret, only to be betrayed and left after the discovery of what he really was.

Jack scooted closer to you and took your hand in his, caressing your knuckles with his thumb. He looked into your eyes as he spoke.

"I do trust you mi vida, of course, I do," he proclaimed. "but I just didn't know how to tell you,"

You squeeze his hand.

"I love you too much to lose you,"

"You love me?" You gasp.

He nods.

"I love you too," you confess.

Jack looks at you in surprise. You never thought you would say those words to each other.

"You do?"

You nod and hum as you lean forward to press a kiss to his cheek, which causes Jack's face to heat up at the contact.

"I've loved you for as long as I can remember," he reveals.

That makes your heart skip and now you're the one with warm cheeks. Jack takes your other hand but when he does it turns your wrist in a certain way that makes you wince. Oh, right you had some wounds from last night. Jack asks you what's wrong and you just pull up your sleeve to show him.

“Is that from me?” he examins the cuts on your arms that distantly look like the size of his nails when hes in wolf form.

“yeah but i’m okay, really” you assured.

“were going home now,”

Jack pulls you up from your spot and douses the fire out immediately.

“why?” you ask as he hurrys you through the woods.

“so I can fix you up,”

“Im alright I promise, nothing a little band-aids and ointment cant fix,” you chuckle.

The whole way back home Jack leads you by the arm and fusses over you the next couple days treating your wounds. You thought it was sweet he was so protective of you. But then you thought about the other night how in his wolf form he was protecting you, even if he didn’t know it he still was protecting you.

PLEASE tell us more abt ur s/i oc!!!!! I have one too so i love hearin abt others 😭

WAUJCFJFJFJ thank u for asking.... everything is under the cut since this is long:

so he's named limone (and unironically enough, he's got that lemon slice piercing) and he is a part of passione's intel gathering team. he's 26 and joined when he was 19. his stand helps with gathering information as it extracts the truth from a victim (reverse talking head in a way, but it doesn't attach to your tongue) but unfortunately I have not ironed out the details yet. though in the next few days I'm likely to have a post out

unironically enough for someone that works and handles information... he is a pathological liar 😔💖 or rather used to be but still does slip into the habit. what happens is a sort of 'boy who cried wolf' situation - the shit he says (outside of passione related matters) are easily thought of to be untrue but they actually are. like you think someone under the mafia could have a university degree? 🤨 he does, but most people assume it's forged/bought out or simply doesn't even exist. also another vice of his is that he enjoys gambling, which is why you'll spot him in passione territory based casinos playing card games after he gets paid (and drinking to death when he loses).

other than that he's certainly a handful - rowdy and fiesty, all contained in a compact 5'6" man. he's the type to say what is on his mind and not skirt around it... unless it embarrasses him in such a mortifying way that he literally overexaggerates the situation and stresses himself out over it. despite any confidence he might have (a case of fake it till you make it, a result of his upbringing), he's really easily flustered.

his design (most importantly what he's wearing but I'll probably also illustrate these soon since I'm riding the high of successfully drawing (cringe, I know)) was inspired by clueless fashion and in general aimed for him to feel, fashion wise at least, like some spoiled rich brat. which is the complete opposite of him LMFAO. his developmental phase was so difficult - I'd been working on him for months and finalized everything yesterday

Another Molluck Study Night

Man, I just felt like I gotta learn from my mistakes I did with my previous sketches/studies, so I tried a different approach, meaning basically thinking differently while drawing but well, I also spent a few hours on this since I wanted to take a closer look at Molluck's shapes. It feels like I finally could draw 'anatomically correct' Molluck, meaning that I feel like I drew his body in a correct way.

I just feel like I tend to draw him too muscular or his shoulders are too wide since they are actually kinda narrow. I don't actually wanna make his body any different that it is, it's perfect as it is! Frankly, I feel like it seems somewhat usual for Gluk-enjoyers to make them have more 'normal bodies'. I don't personally really like Molluck having 'a normal body' since I love his 'odd body'! He just doesn't feel right with that 'normal body'... It's not him for me. Though yes, his body can restrict him significantly but I wanna love him with those restrictions. I feel kinda alone with loving his body like it is, like having zero changes and/or additions.

Man, it's still always interesting to see how people like to have Molluck. Like today (yesterday), I happened to find one more person who has done Molluck self-insert stuff and it was something different. The person seems to be no longer active and that post was done like two years ago, which was kinda the last year of 'Golden Molluck Years'; I mean, back then was just more people loving Molluck, creating/posting stuff about him etc. I can never forget one Twitter profile... It was private though and I feel like it's too NSFW to say here what that profile had written on it... But that person seemed to want badly Molluck's non-existing D... Nothing wrong with that, I'm just the opposite with this, that's why no changes are needed for me... Just interesting that I seem to be quite alone with this...

But yeah, that person I just found seemed to picture Molluck as 'a paternal figure' (and also made him have 'a normal body'). Frankly, when I have been having some thoughts about raising a family with Molluck (= adopting a Gluk baby) for fun, I just cannot see Molluck as a parent, though I don't see myself as one either... I'm only into how Gluks grow up, what like they even look as little etc. so it more like feels like being a scientist than a parent if I had adopted a Gluk... So, nope. I also do not see Molluck as 'a daddy', also because it's not what I'm into. Like I have said many times before, I do see myself in him, so this makes me see us having equal 'roles' in my self-insert stuff. Though, yeah, this can vary depending on the situation/thing but mainly for 'natural reasons', like related to his body or wealth. I also just wish to take care of Molluck since he does need help but I also do not wish to do every single thing for him, I do not wish to be his valet, so yeah, luckily he got Sligs (too). But I love to think about things like washing him since I also care about his well-being. He is free to smoke though... He probably has quite strong cigar smell on him but I feel like it wouldn't be a problem for me, maybe would even enjoy it. I have been joking that there is no need to develop a scent for Molluck, like I have seen some scents developed for fictional characters, since you can just get a cigar and smell that! Yeah, that's basically what I have done... Bought a cigar just because of Molluck!

But yeah, I just have been trying to say that I do like to do the things in my way and it can annoy me when the things ain't done in that way... So yeah, I feel Molluck... I can be bossy and intimidating, even I have no intention to be like that. I guess that you can get it why I have no interest in seeing Molluck as 'a daddy'... Actually, if I could have chosen like any name for my account here, I would have chosen something like 'your boss'... I just enjoy boss stuff, being called a boss etc. and it's been so for a long time. I'm not being totally serious with my stuff, like this boss stuff is also about me having fun.

Oh, and I wanna be clear about that I don't wanna judge the other 'Molluck enjoyers', I'm only curious and wanna share my thoughts on how differently Molluck can be seen! I bet that it also just reflects the person itself, like I do see Molluck in a different way because I see myself in him versus a person who doesn't see themself in him. Just enjoy Molluck like you want but yes, you are also free to hate him! It's kinda odd when it comes to fictional loves, that you just can never really 'own' that character like a real person, meaning that there is just one 'version' of that real person while there are 'multiple copies' of that fictional character, many people being able to do self-insert stuff about them. I mean, yes, it can feel odd to see Molluck being like that with someone else but I'm also just interested in seeing how people see him since, like I have said, I have seen no one else seeing Molluck like I do, referring mainly to how I want him...

Also, I feel like the reason why I even want Molluck, why I love him this much, is different from what the others have since it's that I see myself in him; only after that his appearance caught my attention too, like I have said many times before. Maybe this is also the reason why I seem to be 'the only one who survived' from those 'Golden Molluck Years' since barely anyone else does Molluck content these days. My love for Molluck is just deep and true, and I feel like my love for him just keeps growing, I love him more than ever now! Everyone is free to love him for whatever reason but I'm just unable to love/want someone just for the appearance, it must be about something deep(er). I honestly don't know what makes Molluck hot for the others... So yeah, it's actually confusing for me to see that many people thinking that Molluck is hot... I just don't understand stuff like this in general since yeah, like I have said, I'm quite 'immune to appearance stuff', don't even know when someone is 'charismatic'... Man, sometimes I feel like I'm somehow broken when I seem to differ so often from the others, in many ways, but well, I'm just one odd creature. I have just grown up getting called 'odd' and it might be one of the reasons why I have developed self-hatred...

Man, I just can write so much about Molluck 'n' stuff related to him... But yeah, I don't mind being quite alone with being a Molluck content creator. I keep him loved, hugged, and kissed!

10-Card Tarot Spread for Beginners

A little bit of background before I show you to this spread: yes, I know it's a common spread, but I want to make my page more about the simple basics. From this I hope you gather inspiration and personalize this to you or whoever you're doing the spread for. This is the first spread I learned, and if your cards like it, a very accurate one at that. I'm actually going to be doing a hypothetical reading throughout this post, then a recap at the end of what the reading may look like step-by-step. That being said, here is the breakdown:

Overall, this spread is one to help you (or whoever the reading is on) familiarize yourself (themselves) with a question they have in mind, or just a reality check. The question shouldn't be yes or no (there are much better ways to go about those types of questions) but more open to interpretation.

Shuffling

As for almost all tarot readings, you will want whoever you're doing the reading for to shuffle the deck while thinking about their question that they're asking the cards.

The Spread

In this spread, there are 10 cards with independent meanings that are subject to change based on the context of the other cards. Keep in mind that if a card is drawn upside down, then the meaning of the cars itself is "reversed" (but not necessarily the exact opposite of its divinatory meaning). Here are the individual meanings first:

You as you are now. This card represents your current standing on the issue. For example, if you are drawn the Four of Pentacles, then it may mean that right now you have financial or material security, and even gain, maybe from hard work (a raise at your job), or maybe from inheritance, but there isn't any emotional or spiritual gain and can also show the effects from greed or selfishness.

What is blocking you. This card suggests some sort of obstacle preventing the best or most desired outcome from your situation. This could be figurative, emotional, or literal. For example, if the Death card is drawn here, do not panic, it may just say that there is a sudden, drastic change which you may not be taking well, or perhaps are in denial of. Overcoming this card is likely to get you a step closer to your end goal.

Distant Past. This is often a history or brief explanation of what happened to lead up to this moment. It may bring insight to a specific trait of your character, or provide some sort of explanation of why you're asking the cards the question you are. For example, if you're a rather closed off person, then Two of Swords in this placement would imply an emotional barrier you've put up to protect you from danger as you see it, and that if your heart once protected by these swords becomes exposed, the emotional damage from it could cause confusion, thus these barriers would need to be taken down slowly over time.

Recent Past. This shows recent factors contributing to your question. The term "recent" is completely objective, and this could have happened in the last hour or last decade, or anywhere in between, just recent enough to still be in the process of shaping you as a person. For example, the Ace of Cups in this position predicts the start of a relationship with the potential of true love and happiness, meaning you may have just met someone or gotten close to someone you may want to stick around.

Near Future. This card is practically the same as recent past, only in the future. The same objectivity applies that this card's prediction may happen as soon or distant as it may. For example, the Ten of Cups drawn here may mean that soon your journey may be finished, and you can breathe in peaceful air and feel the lasting calm of overcoming obstacles and earning your relaxation.

Distant Future. This placement in the spread often describes what sort of life you'll have once the near future has passed. This is, again, a suggestion on what it may look like, as Knight of Pentacles filling this role may look like you'll have a large project or assignment to do, requiring much of your time and energy later on in life.

Your inner self. The card representing your inner self shows who you are inside at your roots, despite how you present yourself or how the world sees you. For example, having the Nine of Wands as your 7th card shows that at your core, you may find obstacles and difficulties, but through your inner strength, stamina, and your will to continue on you overcome nearly any obstacle. It represents a strength we didn't know we have until it shows itself.

Environmental Factors. This card illustrates what happens in the world around you as you move toward your goal, as well as how it effects you. For example, drawing Justice here would show that you've noticed (subconsciously or consciencly) a natural law of cause and effect, and the Karma and Dharma after that. It's a reminder to answer for what you may have done wrong in the past, and for you to monitor your actions because they not only effect your future by direct causation, but the consequences of them (positive or negative) will always return to you.

Hopes, Dreams, and Fears. Here, the cards reveal or reenforce what you most desire and dread. For example, Page of Cups may find himself home here and show how youthful you can feel, as well as nearly impulsive from the wonder and excitement. He appears to remind you that in a world growing cold, believing in your dreams can bring warmth back, and add imagination back to the world. He could mean that you might be afraid to grow up and have to lock away your youth, but reminds you that you don't have to.

Potential Outcome. The potential outcome isn't a definitive yes or no, it just shows you a perspective of what the answer to your question could be. For example, the Four of Wands here would mean that you can look back on everything you've done and be proud of it, but it also says to never stop learning, growing, and living. This shows the easy flow of a balanced life, and appears when you have achieved a goal you've set for yourself.

Example Reading

Earlier in the post, I gave examples of what a card could mean in the context of its placement in the layout, and here is a potential conclusion based on that:

"It looks like from the environment you lived in, you saw people suffer from the consequences of their actions, and you've distances yourself a bit, and built up a barrier to protect yourself. Over time, you've met many people, but recently found one that you feel truly happy to be around, and the feelings are mutual. You enjoy that feeling of happiness, it reminds you of when you were young and full of wonder, but now that you've found yourself in a career or something that has brought you stability, but it was at the expense of your imagination and sense of wonder. But you'll overcome that, you always manage to overcome hardships. Your inner strength is reliable, and hasn't failed you yet. In this world, you need to make sure you're taking responsibility for your actions, because soon you'll finally be able to relax and breathe in a breath of fresh air, knowing you finished today's goal. You should be proud of your work today, yesterday, and tomorrow too, and remember to never stop growing, learning, and ultimately living, because you'll always have something new to work on and learn from, and you will always have that spark of imagination in you!"

In case you were wondering, in my tarot deck, The Medieval Scapini Tarot by Luigi Scapini, has "Coins" instead of "Pentacles" as a suit. I'm not sure why, it just does.
