#this was a very fun ask

Can we see more of your cat?

Of course you can!! This is my oldest girl, who was in yesterday's post. She's an absolute cuddlebug who loves to headbutt me right in the mouth and sit on my desk while I'm trying to work until I move her onto my lap, where she will stay for hours.

She is not my only cat, however...

This is my brother's cat, but she still lives in my house. She's very noisy and thinks she's a bird, so she climbs up onto people's shoulders like a parrot whenever she can. She is also convinced she is perpetually on the verge of starvation, but what cat isn't?

My mum rescued this extremely handsome boy from a fox when he was only very smol, but now he's a majestic grown-up kitty who is very easygoing and only grumbles a little bit if you scoop him up to smooch him all over.

The gang's all here <3

There is also a very good pupper to keep the cats in line. She belongs to my dad, and she's an absolute treasure.

Sardine, very important question. If someone asks if you're a god what do you say? (/ref)

"—you say YES!!"

Happy Blorbo Blursday!

What is the most embarrassing thing a blorbo or OC of yours has ever done?

Happy blorbo *looks at calendar* tuesday!

I think the part of my WIP that would leave you feeling the greatest amount of second-hand embarrassement is the moment Darius confesses to August that he likes him and wants to be his boyfriend. I wrote it to be awkward on purpose and even as I was putting words on the page it physically hurt me.

However, Reyna and Markov have (separately) done a lot of embarassing stuff because:

1. Reyna has 0 awareness of everything around her whenever she's focused. She once tried to investigate a murder, which once lead to her stalking some dude at 2AM (it was Markov in disguise). The whole investigation is embarassing as hell because she's relying purely on vibes and her obsession with Sherlock Holmes stories. She manages to solve it by sheer dumb luck by having the information yeeted at her face when she's not looking.

2. Markov is so embarassing overall. He's a 34 year old man who's been in a continuous edgy phase since he was 20 and he has no clue how to navigate life in general. He says the most out-of-pocket stuff, tries to bond with the one guy that hates him while under the impression that they are besties, and dragged Darius and Reyna out of bed to watch his weird monologue in the middle of the night. He covers his face with illusions except he's not too good at it and ends up looking uncanny valley-esque 90% of the time. Also, the god he serves has told him he's shit at his job twice, which isn't necessarily embarassing but is very funny to me.

I love them so much. They are my little embarassing babies <3

you ever think “wow I was wrong. I should go back”, and then you realize “I cannot go back”? Like one time you ate a giant jawbreaker or something. Or when you weren’t nominated as an undersea prom queen? Stuff like that.

added example! When you don’t get a valentine, and you’re like “man, this is the worlds end.”

yeah. lots of my time has been spent with trouble brewing, and it's honestly been a lot of push & shove to get to where i am today. i'd love nothing more than to take a load off and have someone help me, because oh my god do i want that sense of calm. i miss those days hanging with the boys in a not-so-empty house, waiting for... something. but the truth is that you must carry on, persevere and try to make a clean slate for yourself. those who forget history never find a respite, but it's okay to try again... and take a walk through your own lost library. no matter how many bad mornings you face, remember to be patient. i'll be right here by your side. :)

she's singing in another room and my dog is asleep at my feet. my grandma asked me why i haven't found a man yet and i laughed. oh, you know. i like my house clean.

my girlfriend is also my man is also "my partner" if i'm in a professional setting. yesterday we went to a ren faire and a man mimed at me - you're together? and at my delighted nod, his baffled, you're gay? made me laugh. a woman with rainbow hair said i love the two of you together. you're both so beautiful it's absurd.

my dad introduced my partner as my "..... friend. or whatever" the other day. he knows we're dating. in the same way, i was never able to get my sister's husband to stop saying that's gay like it's 2008. he still uses the word fa***t, and my sister's defense of him has always been well, he's just kidding.

my lover and i dance to old music in a tiny kitchen. we judge new music together and take food critique very seriously. we watch love is blind before we fall asleep and agree that if they had a queer season, it would be bloody but also make for excellent tv. of fucking course queer people would know someone for only 2 weeks and agree to get married. what are you saying.

at a bar with friends, a man puts his hand on my wrist. got a boyfriend? and yes, i do have a boyfriend, she's amazing. i am texting her while i wander around a gas station named after geese. i am visiting a swing state for a wedding. in the candy aisle i overhear: she's actually like a lesbian it's disgusting. two teenage girls with packaged sandwiches in their hands, giggling. no literally, like. i'm not, like. okay with her being there while we're all, like, naked and changing.

my girlfriend and i tailgate, drink gin and cider out of cups. from the frat group beside us, a man corrects himself with one of his friends: bro, i mean, nonbinary entity, and it makes everyone around him laugh, myself included. he razzes his friend the same way i would have killed for at 19 years old - like nothing happened, he continues: you apply sunscreen like an alien. he does a little sassy (and fairly accurate) dance interpretation of the motion. his friend is laughing so hard they're crying.

i am lucky, i live in a safe neighborhood in a safe state. my masc passenger princess comes up from DC. i drive her for an hour to where all the leaves are a violent arrangement of color. we walk along the trails, letting autumn into our blood. in this part of the state, there's a lot of pickup trucks and trump signs. when we chastely kiss before getting into the car, i accidentally make eye contact with a woman holding her child's wrist. she looks disgusted. she looks fucking pissed.

two hours later my girl and i are eating dinner on a patio, soaking in the last warmth of new england sun before the chill of winter sets in. we are giggling and trying to talk through plastic vampire teeth. at another table, i see a young woman sit up straighter. i watch her watch us. she blushes and takes her partner's hand from across the table. shy, like the taste of evening has just become something deeper.

it's worth it for this moment, i think. my lover is still humming the same song she's been singing for four days straight and i don't want to kill her for it. her guitar is beside my bed. her toothbrush is in my bathroom. in a few moments i will make us lunch. we are lucky enough to have found each other. it is lucky enough to be in love.

[fox-mulder-gets-pegged]

I just wanna say bc I KNOW you're somewhere on tumblr, to the teenage girl who attended Take Your Kid To Work Day at an office building in Ontario, Canada circa 2013 and had a conversation with a middle aged woman in which you showed her your Black Veil Brides fanart and fanfics and ship content and told her about different fanfic tropes including a/b/o verse bc she happened to know who Panic! at The Disco and Fallout Boy were and thus you felt the need to show her your bandblr ship art, that was my fucking mother and I had to clarify all that to her including looking my mother in the eye and trying to explain a/b/o verse without sounding like a lunatic.

It's been 10 years and I still regularly sent evil energies in your direction. Since you'd be probably two years younger than me and thus legally an adult now, please know if this post reaches you it's on sight.

SAY HI, PACK OF PIXIES!

Every time I rewatch A Court of Fey and Flowers (or let's be real, any campaign Aabria Iyengar is in or runs), I had more and more wanted to paint her. So I did. Truly one of my favorite and most inspirational DMs, and a fashion icon to boot.

[poorly-drawn-mdzs]

I hope you take this as the compliment it is intended to be, but you strike the same chord of irreverence-as-love, jokes-to-showcase-sencerity that I get from Chuck Tingle, and I adore both of you.

You have bestowed the greatest honour upon me.

my comic from the @neverturnbackzine! truly one of my favorite zines i've been a part of :]

some extra insight/fun facts about the process of this piece below the cut 💥💥💥

posting pieces from collaborative zines is always something i struggle with because i look back and think of how i would do things differently now, but i learned a lot working on this comic and even developed some style techniques that i still use!

Fun Fact 1: the panel where shadow Fucking Disintegrates That Guy is technically traditionally drawn! i couldn't get it right in clip studio so i just started frantically scribbling in a notebook and got it eventually lol

highly highly recommend scribbling stuff out in a notebook, scanning it on your phone, and then dropping it into a canvas to edit later if you ever have trouble sketching something.

Fun Fact 2: a lot of the overlay/background effects were made in Kid Pix Deluxe 3D. i created a whole collection of various textures/abstract effects for this comic that i've been using in my art since last year. you can even find them scattered through my team dark zine lol. here's a few of them:

similarly, the background at the bottom of page 2 is actually a warped photo i took of a bunch of headphone wires. this is the original:

Fun Fact 3: i made this comic during a very busy and wild period of time last year so this is what the final panel looked like for a while before i fully finished it LMAO

ok yay thanks for reading bye

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

anyone else have multiple traumatic memories associated specifically with holidays/family vacations? because that is a topic I never see discussed in all the So You Had A Shitty Childhood, Now What? self-help books i've been reading. but for me, it was a significant thing. and the more i think about it the more it seems like this would be an (unfortunately) common experience. would be grateful to hear if this matches other peoples' experiences...

ravage is #1 personal space stealer and heater, 10/10 would recommend having him as an amica. usually he'd be sleeping curled around soundwave's head but the other cassettes are out harassing starscream on patrol, so soundwave's chest is free real estate

anyways send me asks with ur soundwave and ravage hcs and mayhaps i'll draw them soon
