If I may, how do you typically approach choosing colors in your art? It always has just a lovely feel to it, so I was a bit curious; don't feel pressured to answer ofc :]

I’ve been using a lot of gradient maps lately, they work by switching the greys in your piece with a corresponding colour according to its value. Basically, I colour in black and white, grab a gradient map, and then I adjust the colours by hand until I’m happy with it. This isn’t the only kind of colouring I do, but it works great if you’re in a rush or you’re struggling to find a good starting point for your colours. I’ve been operating under a time crunch for these Sketchbook Week drawings and the Plenism promo stuff I made, so for all except one I used gradient maps. I’m actually in a bit of a funk with my colours right now soooo I’ll come back and do a proper colouring tutorial for my style once I’m happier with how my non gradient mapped colours are looking !

i don’t care. i’m gonna be a hater rn. i don’t see what’s so cool or special about having four arms. big whoop. what’s so bad about being able to hold a normal amount of things that you have to mess with that? i think it’s great. i have a great and normal life with only one shoulder girdle, that can fit in most normal shirts with ease. i love having only the average amount of shoulder pain with my one set of shoulders. if i was held at gunpoint and forced to write one of my favorite things that the fuckers up in cloud kingdom has granted me, it would be my body, in all of its single-shouldered glory, two shoulder blades two humeruses two hands aw yeah. it’s so fucking great. FUCK YOU if you have four arms. do not FUCKING interact 🖕

listen, has no one ever thought about hijacked!effie?

like, think with me: during the rebellion, effie gets taken in by the capitol (among other capitolites, of course — such as peeta and katniss' stylist team; mainly those who had connections with the rebels) due to her "association" with the mockingjay, haymitch, peeta, all that jazz.

so, she gets the usual capitol treatment; especially, she gets electroshock torture (which leaves her with a lot of aftermaths, both physical and mental, that i'll get in a hot minute), but, in the end, she doesn't know shit about it, no one let her into things, although she had her suspicions that something was happening. she only wasn't sure what it was.

once they realise that she hasn't got anything, they don't kill her, — not like they did with portia, really, though that one was into the rebellion alongside cinna — deciding that she could have a better use. the reason why they hijack her is fairly simple: they wanted to use her as an experiment, before hijacking peeta. since her relationship with haymitch and the overall rebels is well-known, they messed her memories with them up (so, yeah, hijacked!effie wouldn't be so fond of anyone in the rebellion, as her vision of them was altered and all).

when the experiment succeded, they followed and did the same with peeta.

eventually, comes that operation, effie's taken along with the victors. she gets in district thirteen, absolutely wild lmao. woman was managing to put up a bigger fight than johanna, they've had to sedate her lol.

haymitch just gets to see her after sometime. when he does, however, effie's looking like an absolute wreck: she's all yellow flesh and bone, truly, skinnier and thinner than he's ever seen her (and that's quite saying something), sunken cheekbones, bruised all over, ribcages so prodruting through her skin it seemed they would pierce her. the mainly thing was: her right eye was bloodshot. that white part was utterly scarlet.

"hey, sweetheart," he goes to her, threading so very softly — he had been there, you know, when they got her to the medical center in thirteen with the others; he'd seen how— erratic, for the lack of a better word, she behaved when the doctors did so much as try and touch her — as he walked towards her. he's not quite sure what to say to her, in honesty. "you alright?" he manages, eventually.

she's quiet. unusually so. he knows they didn't do so much as to turn her into an avox — of that, he's very aware, you know — and still, her silence is eerie at best, and uncanny at worst. it worries him to a certain degree, really, because effie could never spend three fucking minutes without saying a single word, but she's been through a lot. in the end, he's concerned, yeah, though he's somewhat unsurprised by that; couldn't have the woman be tortured with electroshock on a daily basis and expect her to come back the same, could he?

he bends down a little bit, enough to get closer to her face. his thumb hovers beneath her eye, and he doesn't touch immediately. she remains in silence, still, even as he approximates; he can see how her gaze follows his every move, how her eyes go along with his movements. there is something in her watch, something he hasn't really seen before. now, he vaguely recognizes it as the same thing he saw in peeta's (that particularly dangerous glint) when the boy saw katniss, but he brushes it aside.

there shouldn't be any reason for them to do the same thing with effie, he supposes. there's certainly no reason, too, for him to be dwelling about that right now. so, he changes his concentration to the subject at hand, his head crooking to the side. he's no doctor, by any means, whatever the fuck they did to her eye, it clearly ain't right. "the fuck happened to it, sweetheart?" he asks, already expecting her to, before answering the question at all, scolding her for his lack of manners; yet, the scold never comes. his eyebrows knit in worry.

he observes her, taking every detail he possibly can. her hair, which he supposed must have been always so silken (supposed, because he's scarcely seen her natural hair at all; he's had the chance to just once or twice), looked like a fucking rat's nest with how knotted it was; her eyebags were purple and reddened, her skin pale, and he could see all the curves of her veins, fine as rabbit's hair. her nose seemed to be crooked, and there were bruises at the sides of his face. he sighed, speaking at last, "can you talk?"

finally, his thumb touches the skin beneath her eye. it's saggy, almost grainy when he does. well, he didn't think there was moisturiser to apply in the cells, anyway. things succeed all too quickly, then — one minute, she's sat in the bed with that thin hospital gown and a horrible posture; the other, she's taking off the IV drip from her vein, taking off the needle and somehow launching towards him, aiming for his neck — specifically, his jugular.

he feels the cold glide of the needle for an instant, on the verge of truly piercing through the vein, before he can react; his fingers wrap around her wrists. it's not a hard task, not with how weak her body inevitably is, not with how frail she seems (and he hates to attribute such words to effie; for as long as he has known her, at least seventeen years, she has never been one to be described as frail, not in physical nor psychological way). she's rather quick, though. he'll give her that.

I feel like no one talks about how medic is probably the only one who knows what pyro's face looks like under the mask. I mean he is the team's doctor after all, he'd have to know pyro's biology or genetic makeup at least to some extent to be able to heal them properly.

Even if medic hasn't gotten pyro to take their mask off, he's probably collected their dna and can come up with a rough guesstimate off of that alone

Couldn't figure out why everything was so annoying lately and I realized it was because my T levels are actually going up again lol Need to spend less time on here until they balance back out and my cranky brain demon stops stomping around. Not a hiatus, but I'll probably miss anything not directly @'d to me since I won't be checking my dash feed as much

I think we should normalize proposing marriage by slapping the person's left cheek. Make it violent instead of getting down on your knee and proposing with a ring

I don't know how much I'll be using this account honestly........... It'll still be up just (even) slower but I'm over at @dwururka more if anyone needs me

[waku-waku-week]

having an interest that is rlly well known but not many are actively into can be a real curse sometimes

[netscapenavigator-official]

You’ve invited me to talk about myself. How could I resist??

Also @meltyb you tagged my primary account on this same post, and it reminded me that I already had a version of it saved to my drafts. So, here goes:

Last Song: "Real Low Low" by Gloria Tells (So many modern songs try so hard to replicate even a fraction of the raw disco vibes this song achieves. I am obsessed.)

Favorite Color: A nice earthy, rich green.

Last Movie/Show: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

Relationship Status: Tbh I don't think I'm in the headspace to have a relationship right now. If it happens it happens, but I'm not going out of my way to make it happen.

Last Thing Looked Up: “MacBookPro8,2 Linux Night Light not working" (Recently reinstalled Zorin OS on my laptop, and I forgot on my previous install I disabled the AMD dGPU. For some reason, this dGPU is incompatible with the Night Light feature, and the iGPU is not.)

Current Obsessions: Nancy Drew PC games, Nintendo DS games, Trying to get Zorin OS to run stably on an ARM Mac's Virtual Machine.

You first three are long-time mutuals of my primary blog, so no pressure to hop in. I just wanted to tag y'all because I never get the chance to tell you guys that I love you all, and I love seeing y'all in my activity inbox

Also, I'm sorry for re-tagging you last two, but I was struggling to come up with more people. I'm sure there are some I missed, but if I put off posting this any longer, it'll never get done. For what it's worth, I would've tagged y'all anyway, and I've already gotten to read y'alls', so all's well and ends well.

Nine people I'd like to get to know better

Last song: Down by the River by Borislav Slavov from the Baldur’s Gate 3 Soundtrack (or more specifically the cover of Down by the River by Nerissa Ravencroft)

Favorite color: Blue and purple!

Last movie/TV show: Seinfeld, I’m currently on season four!

Sweet/spicy/savory?: I have a huge sweet tooth, so sweet things

Relationship status: Single

Last thing I googled: I searched up the show “Arthur” because I was trying to find that one meme where Buster was like “You really think someone would do that, just go on the internet and spread lies?”

Current obsession: Fragaria memories and tears of themis mostly^^

Tag Nine People: @kyaruun @xinieeee @deadmansbistro @florapot @hunita812 @scuffle-with-spirals @rexonalapis @maxellera @manicpixiedoomedgirl

I'm gonna make more IA stuff soon, but I'm busy with hw right now sigh. Btw, the first one is Kokichi trying to flirt, not Shuichi :)

(the 2nd one is shuichi when uhhhh when uhhhh what chapter was it . The one where he thought maki and Kokichi hated him that one that one *points like a little kid looking at legos* but uh yeah)

homework. man's greatest foe

TEXTPOSTS!! blondesillyboylover edition (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) !!!

I could totally imagine Kokichi getting really poetic out of completely nowhere xD i mean if my boyfriend said that to me i'd be a Little scared but yknow. how romantic!! :3

if it makes u feel better i dont know which chapter that was either XD i think it was um,, 10? o_o i dont keep track lmfao i could not tell you how many chapters each of my fics have or what happened in them. I do imagine Shuichi was longing for the time loop during that time though,, as torturous as it was at least it was familiar (⁠｡⁠•́⁠︿⁠•̀⁠｡⁠)
