Nearing the end of Mettamay! Recap and thoughts :D (This is just for fun lol)
I think this is the part where I drop off of drawing for Mettamay AAAA But hey, I did really good though! (imo ofc!) The number of days I did and how much I drew MTT himself was insane 👀👀👀
In total I accomplished days: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27! So in total, 21 days! Holy shit LMFAO VERY proud at my commitment yo, I kinda wanna do this again next year if it's on! >:D (just remind me bc I WILL forget probably)
I've mostly dropped off by now, just bc I can't think of what to draw, and my motivation has moved to updating oc's for Art Fight BAHA But the fact I made it so far--- bonkers, bro, absolutely bonkers. This was INCREDIBLY fun and got me through pretty bad burnout, so yah! It was honestly very relaxing to just draw Mettaton for 21 days JHSDGHSD
Also, shout out to Mettamay for getting me to experiment with art aswell! Notably, I've become more comfortable not fully rendering with a painterly style, rather, just using a single pen brush in my software and doing pretty decent cell shading(?), which is epic as bc painting takes... SOOOO long JHDF
And honestly, imo to end off Mettamay for MYSELF Imma rank my favourite pieces I've done for this month, just to look back on and just for funsies KEKEKE
VV - UNDER THE CUT! BC THIS POST IS LONG AS HELL - VV
TO RECAP FOR MYSELF, My favourite pieces were these:
FIRST:
Tumblr media
Mostly bc I am so SO happy with the rendering and colours JKSDHGFSD
SECOND:
Tumblr media
First siting of me doing decent rendering in the whole of this challenge 🫵 This one was specifically a blast. The pose- not too great, but for me who is pretty shit at poses, I'm VERYYYYY happy with it >:D Very epic to see I also accomplished kinda comic-like background graphics, dunno how I did it JKHJGHSFGSDJ
THIRD:
Tumblr media
i'm kinda insane about my AU MTT. Salty I forgot the weird cape banner wing things but I love this piece nonetheless ;;w;;! I'm so happy with the design, and getting the chance to draw it for Mettamay was a blast.
LASTLY/SPECIAL MENTION The amount of ghost MTT's I drew have to get their own spotlight. I had so so much fun drawing his ghost form, and honestly? NEW COMFORT CHARACTER UNLOCKED KJSHJHFDG
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Who knew a hot pink ghost of my design would become a comfort PFFT Very happy at his design development since the first one LMAO Bro got edgier hair JHGGFJS thanks to my AU ghost MTT also having edgy af hair KJHJHSDJKDDHSDSJ
BUT YEAH Overall, Metta May was a BLAST And now that I experimented with drawing Mettaton, I think I'm comfortable drawing more of him now >:3 Just--- when motivation hits me LOL

Frankly I think Alistair being mildly shitty to that mage in Ostagar seems pretty in-character for the guy he is before the massive, life-altering trauma that is the Ostagar massacre wherein he sees all of his Grey Warden comrades, his beloved mentor/father figure, and his beloathed half-brother/convenient-target-of-projection absolutely torn to shreds by literal Thedas boogeymen. IIRC Morrigan and Flemeth both comment on his wack behavior after Ostagar and then by the time we get to Lothering Alistair just fully surrenders any and all responsibility (and, frankly, agency) to the player's Warden for the foreseeable future. It can then take anywhere from a couple IRL hours to the entire second act of the game for him to retake almost any amount of it back. And depending on the player's choices in dialogue, and especially whether or not they choose to romance him, we may only see flashes of that guy we met at Ostagar before he potentially morphs into almost someone else entirely (hardened!King!Alistair). All that to say, I don't actually think it's a useful criticism of "characterization" to bring up Alistair's glibness as compared to his behavior in the majority of the game because from where I'm standing (looking directly at his snottiness about Cailan, his complaints about being assigned to the Tower of Ishal, his Templar-esque focusing on Morrigan and Flemeth being apostates, his generally pretty brusque manner with the Warden recruits) it seems fairly in-line with the rest of his behavior at Ostagar.
#like seriously he's a bit of a dick (more than what becomes usual) while at ostagar#before his world is shattered and his brain (and personality) is completely rearranged by seeing everyone important to him slaughtered#he clings so hard to the warden as a lifeline that he kind of goes full-on fawning mode for a little bit there#just giving up the reins completely and following orders as (imo) a method of coping with massive loss and trauma#throughout the course of the game he recovers somewhat and goes back to being kind of a dick#and/or growing up pretty extensively and becoming a much better and more tolerant person as a whole#but the idea of him being a dick to a mage because he's being moved around like a chess piece rather than a person#by someone who should NOT have the authority to do that and that fuckin ANNOYS him and then this dude's getting all up in his face about it#as if this was HIS decision and then being accused of harassing this random ass dude he could not give less of a fuck about for funsies#and thus him going full obnoxious shithead teenager about it is somehow OUT of character?? for ALISTAIR??? wack#like nah bro i know we all love ali but our vision is being obscured by that love and also how sweet he is in a romance#just being besties with him unlocks an incredible amount of unfiltered BITCHINESS that is fully in-line with ostagar!alistair's shenanigans#dragon age: origins#alistair theirin#by apples#da meta#anyway there's been disk horse on my dash for the last couple days and this is my take on it

Ghoap/bluetooth anon. I personally have my own experiences in my family of butterflies being seen as passed loved ones visiting us (seriously. My godmother, my grandmother, and me all have stories) so I thought that was really cute in the response you had to my “Simon’s happy endings” ask. I like the idea of Reader telling a story about that meaning of butterflies, Simon hearing it and connecting it to his own instances of butterflies, and then gifting his loved ones with butterfly based things. Like getting at etching of a butterfly on a necklace or watch for soap, one of those hair clips that makes it look like the butterfly is flapping its wings for the reader (which definitely gets her cool points in the eyes of her students), and a endless book of temporary butterfly tattoos for Zach since he wants to be like Simon and have tattoos!
I was just thinking about the butterflies when I got this ask. I actually saw a Monarch on the train tracks. It landed on the section of the tracks right next to my window and I swear it was someone coming back to say hi. Made me grin a little, like the universe affirming my belief in this.

🦋 Learning about the butterflies part of chao mi niño
Tumblr media
It’s sweltering. Or so the boys say.
Frankly, this is light sweater weather where you’re from, but the isle isn’t familiar with these heat waves. Though, it makes perfect weather for birdwatching. Which is why you find yourselves gathered in the garden.
Zach’s attention is honed onto the bird feeder, hands planted on the table for a better vantage point. There’s a pair of binoculars next to a Scottish Bird Identification List and a few uncapped highlighters next to it. There’s a streak of white across his left cheek, unblended sunscreen he’d begged for to mimic Simon’s eyeblack.
Beside him, you’re fussing over Johnny, making sure the sunscreen properly blends well onto his face before you can apply the second coating on his arms. He’d learned his lesson a few weeks ago after his last burn and peel endeavor. Simon’s disappeared inside, trying to find the rest of the bird feed so that he and Zach can restock the feeders.
It’s not quiet, instead, your little bubble of Glasgow is filled with soft comfortable sounds. The call of the birds, Clover’s occasional sleepy half barks and whines, Zach’s highlighter marking off another spotted bird, and the soft melodic blues that play from the kitchen. Your own piece of peace within the city.
Which makes it easier to hear Zach’s small gasp amidst all the noise. You think he’s spotted another bird, but it’s not followed by the scratchy sound of a highlighter marking the page. Instead, Zach’s hands stay planted on the glass, leaning forward just a bit. You follow his gaze and find a small two winged creature familiarizing itself with one of your poppies. The red poppy is angled towards the sun, petals wide open to receive her light. She flutters her wings as she adjusts herself on the flower before finally settling down for a drink. Zach’s jaw is wide open as he watches the small delicate bug drink from the flower.
“Looks like someone came to visit you, bud.”
Zach’s eyes stay trained on the butterfly but his head tilts at the sound of your voice. “Visit me?” His voice is low, afraid he’ll scare the fragile thing off.
You hum, capping the sunscreen as you finish up with Johnny, “When I was little, mom used to tell me that butterflies were people who had passed coming back to visit.”
Johnny arches an eyebrow at you, silently questioning the validity of your story. Just like his son does moments later.
“Is that really true?” Zach asks as he sinks back on his heels, resting his face on his palms, eyes never leaving the butterfly.
You laugh, pinching Johnny’s cheek before looking over to the occupied poppy, “I thought it was silly at first. Plenty of myths and superstitions told through the family, but this was the first one that stuck. Well, that and the duendes.”
Right then, Simon appears at the door, “Spent ‘bout fifteen minutes looking for the bloody thing. Found it right where I left it after last feedin’.”
You gesture at him, “See? Duendes!”
Johnny snorts at you, Simon tilts his head, and Zach’s eyes widen just a fraction. But you carry on, “I got to experience my own butterfly visit. I didn’t get to be with my grandma when she passed. Too quick and too far for me to make it in time.”
You stop to take a drink of water, the sting is still there even after all these years. Her most dutiful grandchild relegated to mourning abroad. And yet, the ones who took her for granted the most were right at her side until she was lowered into the dirt. It’d taken a while for the bitterness to fade. Her butterfly made it easier.
“I was at a park sometime later, trying not to feel guilty for not being there for her. When suddenly this little butterfly with black-tinged wings landed on my knee. Don’t know how but I just knew it was her letting me know it was okay.”
Johnny’s hand lands on your knee, rubbing his thumb across it. Simon makes his way over, crouching next to Zach and sharing a look with you.
You clear your throat, “Were you thinking of anyone specific bud?”
Zach’s mouth twists in concentration for a moment, working through a thought. It’s a few moments before he pipes up in a small voice, “I was thinking if the mommy that had me in her belly would like you.”
It’s still, your breath caught in your throat. Simon’s eyes have not left yours but you’re focused on Zach. He’s thinking if his mother would like you.
Simon’s the one who breaks the silence, “How come bud?” Deep and soft, pushing the boy for an answer.
Zach’s eyes are wide and creased, wonderment, curiosity, and a small bit of fear shine through. “Because I love you.”
It pushes the breath out of you, melting you, “I love you too bud.”
Zach beams back at you, “I think she does like you!”
In your peripheral vision, almost as if responding, the butterfly’s wings flap. Simon’s eyes look just a little more shiny than normal and Johnny’s hand squeezes your knee as he huffs out a small laugh.
Zach perks up again, back up on his knees as he speaks, half shout half whisper, “I had bees before school so I asked the clouds to pretty please make sure everything went good! Then I saw the butterfly and then I saw you!”
You grin at him, laughing a little as you smooth his hair back, “Sounds like she led you straight to me bud”
Zach’s grin widens, positively glowing at the revelation. Simon wears a near identical grin to his, spitting image that they are. You can’t help but smile back at them both before pressing a kiss to his nose.
“Aye butterfly brought you straight to us, lovie.” Johnny says before planting a kiss on your cheek.
Tumblr media
You’re next to Simon, putting away the dishes from midday while he washes the evening’s batch.
“Was all that true about the butterflies?” He rumbles curiously.
You smirk, “Why? You becoming superstitious?”
He snorts at you, “’Am trying to conduct research and compare sources.”
You giggle at him, checking him on the hip, “Yeah it’s true. Anytime I’d get stressed or worried about something, it seemed like a butterfly would come by. Grandma basically telling me to calm down like she always did.”
Simon hums, silently washing the dishes for a moment before he speaks again. “Don’t see them often, not the kind of thing that gravitates towards me if you can believe.”
You snort at him.
“But I’ve seen four in total.”
“Lotta people looking after you.”
“Yeah.” The scrubbing stops and his hands rest against the sink, suds dripping off the gloves. “Brought me one of you, each one of them.”
You feel warmth at your side as Johnny returns from checking on Zach, “Never told me about tha’”
“Never knew about the butterflies.”
You hum, raising your hand to stroke his cheek, “Guided us to you, sweet thing. They just wanted to make sure you were taken care of.”
Simon hums, eyes closing as he presses into your palm, “Did a great job picking you lot out.”
You grin as Johnny presses you into Simon, wrapping his arms around you both. Somewhere in the background Clover’s tail thumps against the sofa.
Tumblr media
💉 The mementos
Simon: Tattoo! Gets four butterflies trailing from his wrist down his forearm with the first one being the biggest and decreasing in size so that the fourth one is the smallest.
Johnny: Another tattoo! His is a butterfly flapping its wings with different shading and color so it looks like there are actually 4 different butterflies. It’s really cool and Zach loves to stare at it.
Reader: Chose to stick with hair clips on this one! Pinterest showed me a lot of really cool inspo for all different hair types which was a huge plus! Once this reader is brave enough for a tattoo they'd probably get it on one of their shoulders with their initials hidden somewhere within!
Zach: Temporary tattooes GALORE! He absolutely loves having his dads put them on him. Of course he wants to be just like them and begs them to cover him up. He also has a pink butterfly stuffed animal that he sleeps with that he calls Betty. It’s his confidant (she also serves as a treat hiding place)

I realized recently the reason I can never decide a good Pokemon team for Koro-Sensei, despite having one for most every other F/O, is because he wouldn't HAVE Pokemon, he'd BE one.
So now I'm trying to decide what Pokemon he'd be and I'm caught between two so
Tumblr media
Reasonings below the cut:
Zygarde
Canonically Squishy
Can change color + Closer in color-scheme
Cell motif (Koro-Sensei is like that due to his Anti-Matter cells, and can work at the Cellular level with his bare hands)
100% form would look bad ass in the final battle against 2.0
There's a lot of hilarity in 10% Zygarde. Season 1 shenanigans.
I like the idea of instead of having a ultimate defense form all his cells split when in critical danger; Causing the final episodes of Season 1 to have Core only Koro-Sensei (who is helpless) instead of a Koro-orb (a korb if you will)
Has a 4x weakness which just adds to the kinda wimpy for a legendary level. Comedic value in being scared of Ice Types
Deoxys
Speed Form just in general
Has weird tentacle arms
Is a space virus and thus could be injected into a person like the tentacle seed (makes more sense for Itona, Kayano, and 2.0)
Defense form for ultimate defense form (though it missed out on the being small and helpless part of Ultimate Defense Form)
The core in the center of Deoxys looks like Koro-Sensei's ultimate defense form so that could ALSO be it
Koro-Sensei's not FROM space but he is full of space themeing, though he's the moon and Deoxys is an Asteroid it still fits
I can see him getting pissed off reading headlines about Mewtwo. Unfair to be the SECOND man made pure Psychic type Pokemon

ayo what
tbf this is a VERY old quote that has just been dragged up. George first said this just before Singapore in 22 so I'm not quite sure why it's suddenly been noticed by everyone?
Idk that it was a case of Alex's family ringing to prepare him for the worst so much as it was possibly him ringing them to ask for an update and then telling them to keep him in the loop when they said it wasn't great, but we'll never know the specifics and its not really important I guess.
But yeah, this is why it was so funny when I got that anon telling me they're just 'racing friends'. They're besties through and through. George was literally fretting to the press that Alex was coming back too quickly. It's just part of their lore!

Double edged sword of inspiring my upcoming short campaign off in stars and time is that. I have to NOT TALK ABOUT THE GAME. Because that'd kinda spoil. What I'm doing.
Staying quiet abt the thing I'm crazy about. One of the guys noticed my pattern of loosely basing campaigns off games I like. This is the Odile cutscene. We know the one.
In other news I highly recommend doing campaigns where you just grab a handful of your favorite things and throw things you like about them together like a stew. You can make some good stew.

Okay, so like before 19 dropped my brain decided to pull some dumb shit and think of RvB parodies and it sent me down a rabbit hole that I mad cackled over for DAYS, the abSURDITY of it all - But mostly it just made me like wishing we'd had more interactions between Church and Simmons bitching back and forth over who's smarter, them just every so often being antagonistic with each other But also their similarities of being nerdy/angry/whiny But ALSO while not being canonically relating HAVING that sibling energy Which just led to me thinking about all these silly fucking moments like, HEY Ya know how like Simmon's can actually holographically project himself and it's used ONE TIME.... and I'm like. . . Holograms interact with other holograms, and Church can posses people and control them And it's like 'Why are you hitting yourself' 'I'm not touching you'
