This is makign me sick why are the devs taking off his hat every frame and putting it back just to do it again for the rest of his life. do you think its funny? you sickos you freaks leave him alone you dont deserve him
I love love love Regulus being a terrifying little gremlin creature who scares the shit out of everyone constantly while Sirius is just there like 'awh, look at you, that's the perfect little baby angel I raised'
This is more specifically in modern aus where they're a few years further apart and their parents work constantly so it's actually plausible that Sirius was forced into the role of raising him (I'm thinking about 5/6 years or smth)
He'll show up to the function, in detail describe the many ways he could kill and hide James, Remus, and Peter's bodies so nobody could ever find them, stare silently, then Sirius would come over and hug him like 'reg, you made it! it's so good to see you all happy and willing to talk to people, look at you, you're so sweet' while the other three are like 😰
Grinning maniacally at them over Sirius' shoulder when he hugs him
Genuinely! Sometimes the answer is "my portfolio" or "to advertise my commissions" or "to reach a wider audience." These can be daunting, but they're concrete goals with trackable progress! Maybe you don't reach your ideal goal, but you can still see progress, and be proud of it!!
Other times, the answer is "to feel like a real artist" or "to deserve this attention" or "to feel like I'm doing as much as I could be." THESE are SINISTER BRAIN TRICKS!!! Do not listen!!! They are abstract and anxiety-fueled, and will be ever-shifting!! You will never feel like you've made progress!! That fucking sucks and is unfair to you!!!!!!
Make enough art to learn a new technique! Make enough art to see your progress in a few months' time! Make enough art to put an idea onto paper! Make enough art to have some fun in your spare time! THIS makes you an artist, and your art is enough when YOU decide it is!! Okay!!!!!!
