(For the gravity falls x persona au [really fun combination absolutely amazing 100 tokens]) dipper persona concept?: noir style cloak that is made of book leather, with pushpin buttons and paper and stickynotes visible underneath. Two pairs of hands, both covered in roving eyes, with both hands either emerging from the sleeves, somewhere behind, or the gap in the coat. Has hair (either long or short) that looks mildly prehensile, with a hat (either matching noir-style or baseball) that has Mabel’s valentines day heart on the front with the pine tree over it.

Mabel persona concept?: woven body with a shifting oversized sweater. Base color is pink with sparkles, but the sweater is woven with stylized memories so its more of a rainbow. Hands are needles, and shape into gadgets during animations (grappling hook). Scrapbook head with the shooting star as a cover.

sorry if this was rude, have a good one!

I've actually been sitting on Dipper and Mabel's persona designs since I think mid-December (have to reveal them correctly, we'll get them), but I CAN say that you're spot on with the woven body and grappling hook inclusion for Mabel's :]

(also, no worries for the ask!! I like seeing people's ideas and reactions to the au hehe)

"But if college was free, then people would abuse that and get useless degrees" hell yeah I would! If I could go to college without debt I would make it my job to get a degree in every little thing that interested me. I'd get a doctorate in film studies. I'd have a bachelor's degree for every science I like. I'd try to learn at least 5 languages with varying results. I would learn something "useful" like coding and then follow it up with a ""useless"" degree like art history. I'd be the world record speed run holder for getting every degree possible.

But I can't afford college without going into massive debt, so instead I spent the last 5 years trying to figure out what I am passionate enough about to consider going into debt over, because unfortunately being passionate about everything is extremely expensive to pursue.

Happy Halloween spideypool nation‼️

Halloween version of this post since booping is back

I'm rewatching leverage out of nostalgia and some other emotion I haven't figured out yet, and I do think there's a story in "Maggie Ford Collins deals with having the most unhinged ex in her suburban book group, learns to hotwire a car, and gets her groove back, not in that particular order."

Hollowframe - Stalker

Lots more stuff under the cut!

Closeups:

Alternate "Pale" version:

Could say this one is slightly more """lore accurate""" because the red in the above version isn't really connected to anything in Hollow Knight, but I'm taking a bunch of liberties with this project as is anyways lol

Timelapse:

(flipped it halfway through to make it more continuous with Jade's piece)

Screenshot of references I used:

(also flipped, oops lol)

i think that everyone needs to study anthropology like just a little bit. it should be a requirement. having a base level knowledge of The Human Condition and how to think about other people would be. very beneficial

Ah yes, small husband and scary (but elegant) wife, my favorite combo

An alt and man I forgot the huge size difference between the two sometimes 😳 but hey I’m not against it!!!

I swear I tried so hard to listen to a standard, talking heads podcast while I was working on my latest project---but it is just not my medium. I can do fiction! If it's an audiobook with some production values? A play staged by my imagination? Great, amazing. I love a soundscape.

But anytime they venture even slightly from that, I want to murder them and their tinny laughter.

I'm curious about your choice of the word "biosphere". I think I understand what you're using it to refer to, but there are linguistics-specific words for that already so it's confusing.

i think it's funny to refer to tumblr with biological and ecological words because it's full of creatures in here. also i haven't taken a linguistics class for 5 years so i forgart the actual linguistics terms for most things.
