Some more of that Chai joins Vandelay for half a day AU. Or just a picture of a kinda OOC Kale chilling if you wanna gloss over those comics. I'm still not sure if the colours are too garish or not.

These were mostly done with the premise of treating Kale's office like the hideout. I also really like how mundane, or familiar, the interactions between Chai and Kale can be in the game so I wanted to draw some stuff exploring more like that. But also, there's the ulterior motive of shipping so I included an out of context scene because I can't bother drawing the rest of it (though it seems like a huge jump in their relationship as a result. I think they're so big headed that they get stuck in a feedback loop of stroking the other's ego if an excuse comes up to do so)

#hi-fi rush #hi fi rush #hfr #kale x chai #kale vandelay #hi fi rush chai #hi fi rush korsica #i didnt spend any time finding a ref for kale's shoe sole so i made something up #besides that though i owe my life to all the uploaders of reference pics and interesting details in the game #sorry about the korsica comic i probably had no choice but to cram all those words into one panel. also i like the typo on that webpage #i gave myself an arbitrary deadline of the end of last month but found the pages to be too messy so i spent an extra week on them #whether that helped or not no one will ever know. i have to work on other things so im putting a hard cutoff now #i wonder if my want to draw perspective stuff freehand is a case of fearing what my limits may be or if its just a fear of the line tool #i adore that this game lets you add more to the music through your inputs (dashing on the beat etc)#just like the games i have thoroughly enjoyed from tetsuya mizuguchi #i seem to have too much time on my hands #thinking up scenarios is quick and easy to do while carrying on with the day to day #its when the brain decides you need to try to draw them that the problems occur #'tis mine

oh captain my captain i didn't know what league of legends game was when i watched arcane. so i thought the plot was alright since i didn't (still don't) know the game lore. if it wasn't basically a prequel story, trying to aim the characters at the way they are in canon, do u think the plot and character arcs would have held up alright? or does that actually make the arcane canon story worse since it wouldn't at least have the existing canon as something it needed to land at eventually as an excuse for any "out of character" decisions? thank u

i wouldnt even call it a prequel story? its like a very elaborate au in a sense, one that feels comfortable changing things to a certain extent- clothes, personality adjustments, motivations, but they still have to hit certain beats. vi has to be an enforcer, jinx has to be a wild card harley quinn type, ekkos time powers ect ect. idk WHAT it is maybe the show needed more time or tighter focus or less characters but i just felt that like, some of the story decisions directly relating to LoL lore werent outright bad but didnt have a lot of time to breathe. the standout example being ekkos time thing, where when i watched that scene i assumed it was both a stylistic representation of a fight and establishing his and jinx's prior relationship (which is kind of too little too late considering they did not fucking speak once as kids pre time skip), and then i had to get a friend to explain to me for SEVERAL MINUTES that he literally died during that fight and it was supposed to be showing his rewind thing. it just wasnt clear at all and his character would not change in the slightest if he didnt have it. but you cant NOT include it so. *

really i have no clue the full extent of the story the writers wanted to tell and how much LoL is binding their hands on story beats. and i REALLY dont want to be inflexible considering i still have a full season coming up that might make me more receptive to certain decisions. but considering how much of the cast i REALLY like just straight up are not in the game, i think they are fully capable of making a solid story completely divorced from league

*someone in the comments told me apparently that Wasnt his time thing and my original read of the scene was correct so im not gonna hold it against the show.

#basically anytime i was like huh thats weird #my friend would lean over and go thats league shit #and then i just kind of sit there. Huh #asks #Anonymous #obviously its a massive step up from league both aesthetics wise and like. as a cohesive narrative #i hate you vi undercut/dreadlocks you are so nasty #but i read like this short except drabble from her bio on the website and. look im sorry #i kind of like that she fucking sucks #it gives her a direction at least #like theyre trying to align arcane violet with the choices of a version of her that seems completely antithetical #but again i cant even get that deep into it we dont know how long her fucking enforcer phase will last!#a month? a year? who knows! we dont even know if she likes it #and LoL vi clearly revels in that kind of violence #idk something about her shittiness made her more engaging #whatever i hope in season two she loses so many fights its important to me actually #like its insane this is going to sound so fucking mean but i like her less bc she wins so goddamn much #i compare her to like. gideon nav obviously but also the protagonist of monkey man #and both of those things kind of emphasize those characters losing Hard. chapter 2 of gtn is her getting her ass beat #it just makes the wins later more satisfying #but idk maybe its supposed to be balanced by her emotional losses but the story feels so. removed from it?#spent like 7 years in prison we see none of it she comes out of there like she wasnt incarcerated in an adult facility since age 15 #and now a girl she spent at the LONGEST a week with but probably closer tk 2-3 days is the same level of emotional import as her sister #SHAKING the writers i am not SOLD why is she LIKE THIS #cough. anyway

I swear. I comprehend I’m not the best teaching intern in the world. I also was not the best camp counselor, cashier, and so on. But if my observer gives me so much criticism that I cry again I’m going to be so motherfucking pissed.

Especially since she’s asking me to stay late just to review me. While I have family visiting. And I’m gone for most of the day. And my commute is over half an hour. Which isn’t bad around here but still.

#vent #I’m working on it but I cry after like 5+ concentrated minutes of disappointment from bosses and such #we’re staying late because she observed yesterday but #but just like last week she thought my planning period was *at the wrong spot*#it turns out that I did tell her wrong twice FUCK #BUT THERE WAS ALSO ONE TIME I DID TELL HER RIGHT I SWEAR. PLUS I TOLD HER LAST WEEK IN PERSON. I COMBED THROIGH MY EMAILS #I just sent an email with all the correct information so hopefully that resolves the issue #I cried for like two days last week. her criticism is fairly valid but alsoooooo I’m trying to work with my partner Teachers values& methods #WHICH THE OBSERVOR ESPOUSED. last week she was like ‘omg your partner teacher is the best omg you better treat her as the great resource #that she is’ and meanwhile I like my partner teacher but her methods are boring and teacher centered #she swears it’s how she gets through to these kids and I can see that #like by tenth grade a huge change in educational structure would probably be more distracting than helpful for the better part of a year to #these kids #especially since I’m here for maybe a month.#not worth fucking these kids over #and considering the students get to use their notes on tests im just. kind of blanking on better ideas???#even the kids in the ‘smart’ periods are so hesitant with so many math skills #I just want to fix it but I’m basically at the end of the process. idk #my cashier job made me come in on my day off (I did clock in) to get criticized #idk how to stand up about this with a woman who can decide whether I pass or not but god I hope this isn’t going to be a pattern #she didn’t have ONE fucking good thing to say about me last week #my mom suggested that I ask for a compliment when I’m near tears because that might stave off any tears #I’m hoping her method works

Anyway how is everyone doing

#had to get up at 6 in the morning and therefore had 4 hours of sleep today (a weekly occurence pretty much)#so i just took a nap which took all evening and i'm still tired yayyyyy. because naps only work how they should about 10% of the time #and also i did nothing else today because sleep and now i'm truly wondering what to do with myself anymore #meanwhile i have to get up and go to school again tomorrow 😑 and the day after that 😑 and the day after that 😑#or i could drop out again and have nothing else to do anyway and continue rotting in my room #(whether it's my dorm room or my actual room doesn't matter). what's the pointtttttt #might be reaching some kind of limit or maybe i'm truly just dramatising and should just chill about it all #save me 4 hours of music listening now probably. idk man #got my minimal amount of social interaction today in the form of riding the elevator with 3 of the ppl from my course #when i could have (and normally would have) just taken the stairs instead #i feel like i made a big important step today that will help me later on through this year (no not really)#at least one thing i've noticed recently is that i might have the reverse of what is i guess is usually called seasonal depression #in the sense that now that it's chilly and cloudy and it gets dark earlier i feel like i'm finally LIVING in a way #the good effect of that will probably pass after a week or two though #but also just a bit over a month left now until my birthday and then my long awaited trip!!#anyone else get unreasonably excited for their birthday each year even though there's never anything special about it in the end #and that only makes the day more depressing lol #ok whatever i'm done whining now i think. music time then #celebrating (a bit late) one year of gratsax and lil beethoven today. some of the albums of all time for me personally #goosepost

Me panicking because i have 9 missed calls and 5 emails talking about my absence and how "a colleague could take over for me" vs. Me knowing it's really not that important no matter how pushy a client is and that on top of it I'm underpaid and have way to much overtime so i shouldn't even care

#i have 14 hours overtime #collected within 2 weeks lol #you know how it's apparently mandatory for companies in germany to have a way track employees working time? yeah we're #the only company in the whole fucking country who doesn't do that (obviously that's not true there's probably plenty more but it's #still not right.) so we don't get paid overtime nor does it get acknowledged in any way #so technically we're not allowed to even it out (which most people try to do anyway because tf do they think they are asking us to work for #free) but I'm dedicated to not collect any more unpaid working hours so i take the liberty to leave work early this week #so today i left at 12pm (and then got home 4 hours later because another person decided to kill themselves by train. they should call me #first. or anyone else taking the train. I'm sure there'd be plenty of volunteers to do the killing if it means not another miserable day #stuck in a disgusting train). and i logged in again at 6pm today to see if i have anything important messages (stupid i know)#and i saw the missed calls and that there had been an email exchange with me in the cc talking about the 'changes' made in one of the #articles and that someone else could do that for me since i couldn't be reached and at first i felt ashamed and scared #but now it's honestly just pissing me off. that asshole can't write emails and communicate requests like normal people can he #he already called me last week about something completely stupid and acts like his matters are the most important shit in the world #fuck you if you can't wait one day you should have sent this a month earlier because i won't stay online everyday #just to see if there might be an 'important' change you want me to make Immediately. bitch.#also missed two calls from my colleague but she didn't send any messages about what she wanted so i asked her because i felt bad for not #being online and turns out she wanted Nothing. just hear how i was. JUST TEXT ME THEN???? I HATE IT HERE FUCK YOU #seriously i don't get paid enough for this to bother me so much. she probably gets 12-15€ more than me per hour #of course she doesn't care about her overtime as much as i do. i get minimum wage which is less than what I'd get if i still worked at uni #as a student assistant so fuck this shit it's really not important or worth it. from now on i'll only put in minimum effort too #sorry got carried away. rant over now i guess #void screams #work stuff

hm

#ramble tag #more like vent tag but i refuse to have one of those you can just ignore me you are smart #like seriously dont read this unless you really wanna and are snooping #i think there's something wrong with my brain #the executives have really refused to function #or some such nonsense i don't know i am just saying things #if i blame it on a vaguely medical sounding problem i feel less personally responsible about it #its been roughly 4 days #the hours are slipping away like sand through fingers #and i cant Do Anything #its infuriating #i can only Think about all the work i need to do but i Can't Do it #i only have 6 days left probably less i dont know the exact deadline and i have made No progress and i know i just have to Start #but like every time there is a slightest huccup i just get pulled away from the task and oops its dark out now!#and its like i dont even care #i am not sad or scared or angry except i know i should be so its like a ghost of a feeling #i dont want to die and dont want to live if i could i would just sit and read or even just think alone with my mind for a week straight #after i post this i will open the document pull out the tablet and start again i need to Start #aughhhh #how am i even an adult human person #this cant be how real human people live nothing would ever get done and we would starve to death #people here like to say that ooh 20 is not an adult that doesn't count but like #if i was less of a dumbass i would be living if not on my own then not with my parents #and i cant imagine surviving like that #that might be part of why that didn't happen #i am straight up just not an independent person right now #i have been avoiding booking an appointment to cut my hair for half a month #and avoiding scheduling to pick up the piercings I Wanted for 2! maybe 3! i dont know anymore!#okay this ends here #not the moping the tags

they should make a life where you don't have appointments, work, school and scheduled events every single day for months on end

#i just wanna spend like 2 full days rotting in bed is that too much to ask #december i'm going on a vacation with family + gf and we're trying to schedule a lunch/dinner so that we can go over the itinerery #and other stuff like my gf is diabetic so she's going to tell everyone the procedures in case of an emergency etc #and the soonest i'm available for that is oct 20th like bruh #every week day i've got classes 7:30-11:50 work 13:00-17:00 and then gym therapy or futsal practice at night #oh and sometimes the professor that i'm the student assistant (? monitor in pt) for wants me to go to her night classes #and then on weekends i've got futsal practice sat morning usually a match either saturday or sunday legal advice clinic 4x a semester #and then birthdays friend group meetups (with ppl i haven't properly seen in a WHILE so i don't wanna bail) family stuff or gf's family stu #oh and i take care of the finances of our futsal team so there's that as well #and then when i'm free i spend my time with my love (who i mostly see on either day of the weekend and sometimes for dinner on weekdays)#those are my favorite “appointments” i love spending time with her so much but even though we have quite a few staying in dates we also #pretty frequently go out to cafes restaurants parks meet up with mutual friends etc #so like... no bed rotting ever adfdsal #honestly i am not THAT busy compared to some ppl that i know #like i work from home most days of the week commute only 20 min to college am not a part of any study group etc etc #but man... that vyvense sure is working cause i do not think i would be able to do what i do now when my adhd was unmedicated #also i'm thinking of maybe getting a new internship next year cause even though i love my current one it's in public law which atm #is the field i'm thinking of getting into after school but getting into private law in brazil with only public law uni experience is #incredibly difficult. so i wanna be 100% sure i actually want public law. which means experiencing private law.#which means a private law internship #so i'm wondering how the fuck imma be able to pull that off next year #at least it pays much more than my current one! like probably double!#but honestly even with all the shit that i do and wishing i had more time for myself i've actually been so happy lately #i'm learning more at uni than i used to be able to i do pretty well at my internship i've got wonderful friends both old and new #my family is well and we get along like always i switched positions in futsal and am doing suprisingly good as a goalkeeper #and i'm in my first ever relationship. it's been almost 8 months till we made it official and it blows me away how good it's been #like we haven't faught once. disagreed on a couple things sure. but not a single fight and tbh even disagreements are very rare #idk we communicate and give each other grace and i just feel so loved. she knows me so well. i love her so so so so much.#like man just this saturday we were having an early dinner at a bakery. she stopped what she was saying and just stared at me smiling #and like i couldn't hold eye contact. cause she's so so fucking beautiful and she was looking at me with so much love and i had to look awa

had an idea for yet another big project…

#for once can i pls stop having creative ideas beyond my motivation level #basically… i was thinking about making mock movie posters for the canonverse & all of the main AUs. which.#off of the top of my head… that’s at least 12 different universes #yea the multiverse has gotten out of hand ok. it’s fine.#bc!!! idk i’ve gotten really into the multiverse idea & i kinda wanna get into it more on here #BUT. THEN. i thought what if….. i made another set of posters specifically for the mbz universe right. ok.#(i’m having mbz withdrawal)#which would be like. another 10 probably bc i could make a poster for all the different like. characters or storylines yk #red & teeth origin stories. cricket’s story. the monster boyz themselves. the raiders. the monster hunters.#etc.#there are a lot of characters ok #i really miss the days when i had simple edit ideas & could make an edit like. every other week #i just KNOW this is gonna take me a month at least #like i literally just finished a month’s long edit do i really need to do that again. do i.#PLUS i’m gonna have to give proper names to all of the AUs #the only ones that have proper names rn are the canonverse mbz & slaughter house #god & i still haven’t finished the mbz character page like RAI PLS #stick to one fuckin project!!!!!!!!#i literally. have a backlog of ideas i will probably never get to #it’s fine #rainyrambles

Me: *needs a reminder of which characters are in Edge of Midnight and googles it*

Ah. It's going on hiatus literally next week

Because of course it is 😂😂 that's just my luck

#tk speaks #ouaw and SR both went on hiatus like a month?? or so before i found these guys #i guess it gives me opportunity to catch up while its on hiatus if thats the one that wins the poll (which it is currently)#there's just so much to watch and my ability to watch episodes is so inconsistent #august/september/and probably October too I'll have a ton of time to watch episodes though #thats when I'll have like 12-18 hour work days 6 days a week and they'll typically all be days where i can pound through episodes #edit: just scrolled back on my main and the first post i made about OUAW was on April 10th and i was on episode 5 already #so it was only a couple weeks after it went on hiatus that i started it lol #i think i started SR really soon after too

study smart not hard (altough both is best actually) this saying is so true

#my advice #but this saying is sooo true #i know some people at uni who study for exam so long and hard but then fail or just barely make it :(#like what are you doing? i don't mean this in a mean way but it doesn't have to be this difficult #i don't understand how some people can study for an exam for 2 weeks or even a month and still fail and i don't think they're stupid #or i don't see myself as particulary smart #but i guess they just waste their time a lot and i realized studying effective is so important #now everyone is a bit different and has to find what works best for them but there are certain techniques which are proven to work well #there is so much information on the internet on this look it up seriously #it made my life sm easier i never struggled in uni like i did in school and i get good grades #and if i ever struggled a bit it was because i started so late it was almost impossible to pass 😂#which is why to do both is still best 😂#but i actually always made it and i never failed an exam at uni (which i studied for)#(two i was fooled into to just try without studying bc it's easy lol)#i mean i shouldn't speak too soon but i already made it through some of the most difficult of my studies #ofc it depends on what you study how well this works but i'm speaking for myself #i once passed an exam with a B studying only 2 days as one of the best students while others studied 2 weeks #and got worse grades or failed #still studying only 2 days is stupidity don't do it 😅#so the techniques i find very helpful are ofc exam questions probably the best one #if there are none make your own #then blurting for which there are different ways but i like to just go over a topic and then write down everything i remember #then fill the gaps #quizlet is also great it's an app which allows you to create cards and then tests you in creative ways #videos can be helpful as well for summaries and using summaries in general is normally enough it saves you sm time #normally you don't actually need to know everything but you should be careful it's not a bad summary leaving out too much 😅#and i also like mindmaps bc i'm a very visual person #but all those tipps are mostly for remembering information so it doesn't work so well for other fields of study #well i hope this is somewhat helpful idk 🙈#oh and reading texts over and over again is the most useless in my opinion i don't remember much at all and it takes sm time

im rereading asunder and keep having to remind myself that all these characters have french accents fml

#well. most not all. but yknow #personal #da #im only skimming tbf im working on something that has me going through Everything #hopefully i can get through it all in one go. hopefully before the stream in less than 5 hrs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#im not that excited for it actually. im keen for the dav announcement and that's it. it had better be near the start #anyway. i rewatched redemption yesterday and idk why i had in my mind that it sucked #like it's not *good* but it wasnt as bad as id made it out to be since first watching it. it's just kinda *ok*#but it was a relief after spending the last week reading through talktables. god almighty im glad im done with that #i think when i get up to dai im gonna go through it in frosty #it's gonna take probably 2-3x as long as if i read the talktable. maybe even longer. but i wont lose my mind quite so much #weirdly the dao and dai talktables are about the same length (all dlc included for both) which always really surprises me #but i didnt read the full dao talktable. only for the dlc (and awakening was a CHORE). i read everything in the toolset #and i was able to do most of da2 using those spreadsheets i made of plots and conversations a few months ago. i knew those'd come in handy #the only time ive ever been glad da2 doesnt have item descriptions #ANYWAY. back to asunder. the start is interesting but rhys goes through like. anti-character development and i hate him by the end #obv that's still character development. i just really prefer when a character becomes better or at least doesnt become frustrating to read

I will never disparage another artist for getting that paper or having a different skill set from me but it is the most discouraging thing to see a popular artist making fucking BANK because since they are popular, theyre able to charge more for a lesser amount of work AND still pull in a mad amount of clients doing it. like good for them but why can't it be me

#nerd alert #looking at another artist who has evidently made more in 3 weeks off commissions than i do in 2 months at my day job #making pieces that i could probably do in half a day and would charge like a third of the price of #but i couldn't anyway bc i dont get that many clients :')))#AGAIN NOT TO TALK SHIT ABOUT ANOTHER ARTIST. like the posting frequency gives away the amount of time spent on them #but like the pieces are Fine. im not saying theyre bad. but its so frustrating when the price of something that one person #can apparently easily make 2 or 3 of a day is comparable to my best work. but i cant get people to bother paying for my best work #or to even look at or reblog it.#this is why i havent been posting art btw. cuz why fucking bother. and cuz ive been doing other stuff thats not drawing a lot
