Emerson Erikson aka Sia Gothic for @cowplant-snacks!!

Emerson enjoys canoeing in the waters of Sulani, sunshine on his face, and the colors of a nice, bright tropical shirt. And that's why it may come as a surprise to some to learn that Emerson is able to transform into the ominous and malevolent Sia Gothic. So, what does Sia enjoy? For that answer, you'll have to come a show...I hear it's magical.

also "textless" versions of these, wahooo

[see-arcane]

Very impressed with your art. Since you mentioned wanting a non-adobe art program, maybe Krita? It's free.

augh, I've gotten a heap of suggestions already, I just get stuck in the 'I'll get to it later' rut so I keep putting it off -_-

For Hector, 2, 3, 8, 18

(30 questions for your Tav!)

2. Describe their tent setup! What’s on the outside? The inside?

Very neat and tidy, everything in its place. He has a small makeshift shrine to the Moonmaiden set up in one corner near the head of his bedroll, and you can gain approval by giving him the Selunite idol taken from the owlbear cave at which point it appears on the shrine. Like Lae'zel, he has a training dummy set up and spends a lot of time in camp punching it with rapid fire blows. Over the course of the game, his tent setup slowly accumulates more and more stacks of books, each reflecting one of the places you've been to so far, and he has a camp chatter dialogue tree to discuss each one.

3. What would their character quest be titled? Why?

Thinking about Hector's canonical growth over the course of the game, his companion quest would be similarly about moving beyond his monastery discipline to a greater understanding of the world and his own emotions. It would be more dramatic tho in order to fit in line with the challenges faced by other companions in the game. I am picturing something to do with him spending the first two acts wanting to get back to the monastery on the far side of Baldur's Gate and re-seclude himself, but by the time you take him there in Act 3 (and defend it from an attack by cultists) he realizes that he has moved beyond its teachings and wants to stay with you rather than cloister himself again.

In keeping with the names of other companion quests though, his quest in the journal would have a name that is poetically descriptive of him - something like "The Moonmaiden's Fist". XD

8. After Act 3, what does their life look like? What are they talking about at the reunion party?

It is interesting to think about this in a scenario where he is not bound so tightly to Karlach. XD But I think, similarly to the squid-Karlach verse I wrote about, I think he probably stays with Jaheira in the city, lending his physical strength and spiritual support to the rebuilding effort. He grows to take a lot of pride in coming to understand the vast variety of the world and its people and how much more he can contribute by not hiding himself away. Every librarian in the city also knows him by name and he slowly works through the incredibly vast collection of books he never knew existed. At least one branch of his epilogue conversation is him excitedly telling you about his discovery of the concept of pulp detective fiction.

18. Where/with whom do they feel safest?

In canon verse, absolutely with Karlach. She is very warm and very comforting in the incredibly scary situation they are handling together, and she makes him smile in the darkest times. He's not lying in the epilogue when he says she is his home.

In companion verse - you, probably. You take the lead on the situation and he is relieved to have someone to follow and take guidance from. This is especially true if you are religious of any sort or particularly if you are Selunite yourself. He's also visibly relieved and more comfortable any time you encounter religious locations - such as the shrine in the owlbear cave, the Open Hand Temple, the Stormshore Tabernacle, and even Umberlee's temple - or academic ones such as Sorcerous Sundries.

if sniper and medic were to adopt another bird besides the doves and hootsalot what type do you think it would be.........

OOOOOO THIS IS SUCH A FUN QUESTION.,., so many.,., maybe all of the birds Ever.... HEHE

going to be a bit self indulgent and say that given the nature of the area they're in, they'd love a vulture!! >:) big, imposing, and so pretty...! vultures are my favorite kind of birds (and flamingos too!) so perhaps i'm a bit biased. However i do see both of them training a vulture to swoop down at their teammates as a joke (mostly scout. because sniper tells him that they could actually carry him away so any time one gets near him scout does a Shrill Scream) SKDFKSDFK

but i think they'd also love not just birds, but all kinds of exotic animals! i could write an entire fic about how i think sniper would be so giddy to show another animal enthusiast (medic Does love other animals than birds after all!) all of his knowledge about them and would probably take him on fun excursions so that medic could see the animals in action!

i think medic would love rocko for instance! or any other of sniper's lil pet cosmetics hehe... but as far as other birds, it would be kind of hard to keep them in teufort (though that doesn't mean medic wouldn't try...!) but i think medic would want a really Big bird... or a lyrebird, because it can mimic any sound and i think medic especially would have LOTS of fun with that HEHE!!!

i think sniper would have to be the voice of reason because medic would give him puppy dog eyes and be like "can't we take this little darling (large ostrich or cassowary) home with us? ;-;" and sniper would be like "think he'd have a hard time fitting on the plane, pidge. :(" <- thinks medic is SO cute for asking though.. HEHEHH

[py-dreamer]

...um...hi?

so if anyone's concerned, no I'm not dead.

Thankfully the digital studio is intact this year (thank god I would've had another mental breakdown istg-)

to all my lovely marshiemallows, thank y'all so much for your patience omg!!!!

(and to all my mutuals, @furornocturna and @violetjedisylveon in particular I'm so sorry I haven't been responding or active online at all, I'm so sorry-)

But to sum it up:

I'm on holiday in my home country rn and have been having a blast personally. Meeting relatives, childhood friends, the food, familiar places ect.

and I'll admit I do have a lot of free time outside that but honestly I do feel a wee bit burnt out ngl.

And with my spare time, I've jumped down the demon slayer rabbit hole

(huh who would've guessed)

Basically it's all been a huge break for me.

But I will still post lmk stuff dw. Though don't be surprised if you see a kny thingy pop up somewhere in the dreamscape!!

And for those curious about the fic:

I'm sorry I haven't updated at all, the wips are still in my drafts. I have no formal posting schedule but after returning and getting some work sorted out I'll see what I can do! But no promises!

Regardless, about the pic then.

It is a WIP. It's a sketch for a shadowalkers piece (Wooh! Haven't heard of that au in a while eh?)

I have redesigned mostly Bai He's outfit and added a little pouch for Macaca. The change was mostly so I had more freedom to do different top designs for the new members of the fam!

If anyone has suggestions for outfit designs or accessories or jewelery, hair, anything! let me know pls!

This is just the WIP stage and I really want to achieve that semi-wild, untamed but mysterious and refined gypsy look.

(Also its a guilty pleasure of mine to dress up my characters in aus or just for the fun of it lol)

And fun fact: Wukong's the only one in the fam wearing shoes lol.

Another fun fact: That brick pattern rag he's wearing? Was once a part of tripitaka's cassock from their days on the mountain. (see shadowalkers lore summary for context)

I didn't forget their tails this time! Wheeee!!

Oooh! Ooooh! Also the top half of Wukong's body? I did that myself sans references!!! Woooooooh!!!

Not that there's anything wrong with references of course. Pros and beginners use them and I do recommend them for poses, ideas and such.

Though I am proud I could think of something off like memory and make it work! I think...you can tell me otherwise lol

(BTW this is the after of the main plot where shadowpeach reconciles, they escape the town and Bai He gains a new stepbrother!)

SH!T I REALIZED I FORGOT MEI!!!!

UM I'LL ADD HER IN!! PROMISE!!!!

[dreamerwitches]

WITCH THOUGHTS LET'S GOOOOO!

THEY IMPROVED CARMELA THANK FUCK! They did it for me..! ^v^ She is WAY more coordinated and the colours are sooo nice! The frilly skirt bit is soooo cute! I love how she kinda looks like an octopus or some kind of sea creature. Not sure how well that links with Manaka but eh. I don't think there's much I dislike here. Perhaps the knife rack thing is a little out of place? Not sure. Now as the witch from the doppel hmmmm it seems like the circular bit is completely lost... for link-age, that's not great but getting rid of it to make the design better, i am wholeheartedly down for. She is a big win for me!

Obariyon. I'm hmmmmm not sure. I don't hate it. Why does its head look like a bear? Is it cause like... Obeariyon..? I just don't know if this would be what I'd imagine the full witch to be... The doppel makes me think more of an insect or something whereas this is going for a mammal it seems. It's good but I'm on the fence whether I personally like it.

From the silhouette from the trailer I was super worried about Hevelius but I think I like her? I think her shape is interesting and as stupid as the head is, I think it's fun. But I do have gripes. I'm a bit bothered that the white fabric bit that was so focal before is just completely gone and the head piece and veil is completely removed, like c'mon, that could've been super pretty on her head. And I'm not sure about the coral-looking uhhh thing. And I hate those legs why do they look unfinished? As I rack up the complaints maybe I don't like it..? Hm... I feel like I could improve it using that shape base though. She's fine.

Also... THE HEAD LOOKS LIKE THAT MANNEQUIN HEAD FROM RUPAUL'S DRAG RACE BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER ITS NAME

Now we're getting onto the ones I super like again wheeee! I think Pennen Nolde is so fun, the little matchstick girl theme is ace! I'm sad some super cool aspects of the doppel are gone though... I loved the matchstick thing and the lace and hanging diamonds but eh, maybe they just didn't fit. She's good and I can see it working the other way if the doppel came second. Although the legs are simple, I think the doll legs work and aren't bland like Hevelius'

Pennen Nemenu, ough, I think she's beautiful! I think she takes from the doppel super well! I miss the weird teapot head but I think the head they chose is also cool. Maybe add the tassels onto the end of the hat thing? I love how the main body is utilised into her bloomers (one thing I was sad was missed about Nolde) and she's super cute. My only gripe is her body shape, she is a child she does not need a stick thin waist and boobs, thank you

Now I did notice that these last 3 doppels share a similar body shape and I get that for important, linked characters. I don't think it's a bad thing cause they're all unique enough on their own.

And back to disappointed. My fears came true, I did not want her witch to just be the Nightmare-esque part... sigh... it doesn't even take from it well... no ears? Hair completely wrong colour, face completely different, stripes going wrong way. Like, I get it. Gas mask for poisons, bandage on head for uhh illness (i dont know enough about Alina but she was in the hospital right?) but it's not her doppel. Disappointing.

Amusement Park Aftermath

A/N: Wheeee, hi everyone! I'm back with the pt 2 to "Amusement Park Shenanigans". I had this fic mostly done before the holidays but wanted to go back through and add a little more details to it. Hope you enjoy! Next up I have a Lee!Yuji fic c:

Characters: Lee!Gojo, Ler!Nanami, Ler!Megumi

Genre: fluff

Word count: 2604

Description: Did Gojo seriously think Nanami wasn't gonna get revenge for that little stunt he pulled the other day? Part 1: (click here)

Gojo is a menace.

I mean- we been knew that, but he's been extra extra the past few days, it's like the trip to the amusement park woke the sleeping beast within him… More specifically, the sleeping tickle monster within him.

He's been downright merciless towards any poor unfortunate and ticklish soul he could get his hands on. No one was safe from his tickles.

He has especially enjoyed teasing Nanami every chance he got, administering pokes and squeezes to him in passing, and even cornering him in his classroom once and tickling him until he was content with the blushy laughing heap he had reduced Nanami to.

And it's not like any of this was a bad thing… quite the opposite. It was nice for the school to be filled with laughter for a while… even if it was involuntary. Everyone seemed a lot lighter with this playful war going on, it served as a nice distraction from the horrors they faced on a day to day basis.

Although that being said… there were only so many sneak attacks Nanami would forgive before he decided to retaliate.

Besides… Nanami still had revenge to carry out for the amusement park incident.

“Now, Nanami… Let’s talk about this…”

“Oh? So now you want to talk?”

“You said it yourself before, you needed a laugh.” Satoru argued cautiously, backing away from his friend. “I'm just trying to help.”

“No, If you’ll recall my exact words were; ‘I needed that.’” The blonde teacher responded, slowly stalking after him. “I never specified. For all you know, I was thanking you for the hug.”

“Come on, Kento… Are you seriously still arguing you aren't having any fun?” Gojo felt his back hit the wall, literally, and he knew his fate was sealed… It’s not like he could totally teleport away or make himself literally untouchable or anything, no no no… don’t be ridiculous.

Nanami rolled his eyes as he stopped in front of the white haired teacher. He slowly rolled up his sleeves while maintaining eye contact with the older man. “Yes, Yes I am.” He bluntly responded, smirking at the way his deliberate stalling seemed to only add to Gojo’s building anticipation.

The blue eyed little shit grinned nervously, feeling butterflies fluttering around. “Nanami…”

“Yes, Satoru?”

“Cut it out…”

“Cut what out? I haven’t even touched you yet.” He retorted.

“You know damn well what you’re doing.” Gojo looked away, his nerves tingling already. “If you’re gonna do it, just do it already!”

“Do what, exactly?”

“Tickle me!” Oops, good job falling for the obvious there, Satoru… it's not like you needed six eyes to see that one coming.

Nanami grinned as Gojo’s eyes widened in realization. “Waitwaitwait nononono that’s not what i--Eep!”

“Well, If you insist.” Nanami chuckled, grabbing Satoru’s sides and giving them fluttery squeezes.

“Wahahahait! Nanami! thahat’s not what I meheheheant!” He giggled.

“You sure are giving a lot of mixed signals, Satoru. I’ll just keep going, I’ll give you some time to make up your mind.” He smirked, snatching up his wrists and pinning them above his head. “Don’t worry, I have a few hours free…”

Satoru yelped as he felt Kento alternate between his sides and stomach, keeping his giggles a constant stream by not allowing him to adjust to the same spot. “Hours?!? ehehehe! Nanamihihihi plehehehease!”

“It’s okay, Gojo.” He chuckled a bit at the childish sounding giggles coming from the usually calm man in front of him, an evil glimmer in his eyes. “You don’t have to be so polite, I know you don’t want me to stop.”

Okay, so he maaaaay be a liiiiittle right about that… (or a lot right).

Satoru is one of those people who love being tickled, even though he very rarely allows people to do so. 

He likes being able to let loose and laugh freely, relinquishing his control for just a little bit. Being on guard 24/7 gets exhausting and wears on his mental wellbeing, so every once in a while he’ll really piss someone off or wreck them and let them retaliate.

This, Is one of those instances.

Satoru was well known for initiating tickle fights just to purposely lose them when he was a student. Poor Suguru didn’t know what a quiet peaceful evening was with his tickle monster of a best friend around, not that he even entirely minded it.

After Suguru left, Gojo became more reclusive and almost never let anyone close enough to touch him. Until he started teaching, then he slowly started to become his old playful self again.

“Nohohoho! Gehehet away from thehehehere!” Gojo complained childishly as Nanami’s fingers brushed against his ribs teasingly.

“Why? I thought this was what you wanted… that is why you’ve been attacking me, isn’t it?”

“Nohoho! Ihihit’s because you’re ahahaha grump!” Gojo argued between fits of giggles.

Nanami raised an eyebrow at him. “Hm, clearly I’m not doing enough damage if you’re still egging me on…” He pondered out loud as he targeted a different spot. “Just let me know when I hit the right spot, I guess.”

Something about Nanami’s brand of deadpan teasing just hits different…

It also makes Satoru want to egg it on more, as he picks up on little details. “Eheheheven while tickling mehehe you can’t sahahahay the wohohord tickle!” Satoru giggled, wriggling around as his stomach received relentless pokes.

“You really are just shamelessly asking for it, aren’t you?” Kento chuckled. “Fine. Have it your way.”

Gojo had for a split second felt a wave of regret wash over him as Nanami released his wrists… only for it to be replaced with a wave of panic as he felt hands quickly force themselves under his arms, tickling the sensitive skin there mercilessly.

His reaction was immediate. 

“NONONO!” He quickly wrapped his arms around himself to block off the area, but it was too late. NAAHAHAHAHA! Nanamihihihihi! Dohohohohon’t!!”

“Therrrrre we go…” Nanami grinned as Gojo stumbled forward, his body buckling and collapsing against the blonde as he laughed brightly. “Is that better? Is this what you wanted?”

“Ihihihihit tihihihickles!” He whined between laughs, trying to fall to the floor to get a quick reprieve. “Quihihihit!”

This strategy didn’t work however, he simply guided Satoru down to the ground and straddled his hips, now drilling his fingers relentlessly into the sensitive hollows. “That’s kind of the idea.” He chuckled darkly.

Gojo shrieked as he arched his back as a new steady stream of laughter spilled forth. “SHIHIHIHIHIT! HAHAHAhahahaAHAH!” 

“You know, I think you should be thanking me right now.” Nanami smirked as he reduced the white haired sorcerer to a useless pile of laughter beneath him. “This could be a lot worse for you… I’m not even targeting your worst spot.”

“Fahahahahahack Youhuhuhuhuhuh!” Gojo wheezed, his words containing about as much venom as an ice cream cone. “Ahahahand you stihihihill cahahahan’t say it!”

Nanami stilled his fingers, allowing him to breathe. “You’re really annoying, you know that?” He sighed.

Gojo giggled as he panted, watching the blonde carefully. “I’ve… been told that once or twice…”

“Why can’t you just ask for this like a normal person?” He asked him genuinely.

Satoru blinked. It was as if he hadn’t thought of doing that at all. Would that even work…? Huh…

The older man shook his head, deciding this was a more fun tactic. “Where’s the fun In that, Nanami?” He grinned, reaching for the blonde to try to tickle him.

Nanami saw this coming a mile away though and resumed his ticklish attack. “Nice try.”

Satoru Immediately brought his arms back down around himself, throwing his head back in laughter. “Nahahahat fahahahahair!” he whined.

“I think It’s plenty fair, seeing as though I don’t want to be tickled right now.” Nanami responded sternly.

“Hehehehey! Good Johohohohob buddy, you sahahahaid ihihit-- AAH! NONONONONO!” Gojo screamed when he felt his sensitivity increase, he shook his head frantically. “NOHOHO RATIO! THAHAHAT’S CHEHEHEHEATING!”

“Oh? I don’t recall there being any ground rules set.” Kento smirked, removing his hands and beginning a new attack on his sides. His eyes flickered a subtle green glow as he used ratio again, this time focusing on his sides.

“MEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEAN!” Gojo cackled, arching his back as he felt sparks flying through his nerves, feeling his sensitivity doubling.

“Mean? Ohh, I could get a lot meaner.” While still tickling with one hand, he used his other to push Gojo’s shirt up, exposing his bare abdomen. 

He grabbed a hold of Satoru’s bare sides, ratio’ing them again now that they were exposed, and began kneading them with his strong hands.

Gojo screamed again, his hands clamping down over Nanami’s as he struggled not to fight back. “FAHAHAHAHACK! NAHAHAHAHAHAHANAMI!”

“Yes?”

“IHIHIHIHIT TIHIHIHIHICKLES!”

“Again, that’s sort of the idea.” He chuckled in amusement at how much Gojo was flailing. “Are you sorry for attacking me at the amusement park the other day?”

“NAHAHAHAHAT IN THE SLIHIHIHIHIGHTEST!”

“No? Are you sure about that?”

“IHIHIHIHI’D DOHOHOHO IT AGAIN!”

The stern teacher raised an eyebrow at the other teacher’s childishness, shaking his head. He moved his hands upwards, prodding teasingly into his ribs.

“You probably shouldn’t be threatening me while you’re stuck in this position.”

Satoru’s laughter died down a bit, thanks to his ribs not being under ratio’s influence (yet), but the suspense of when he’d strike with his technique was already making him more ticklish. “Nahahahahanami plehehehehease!”

“Please what?”

“Dohohohohon’t ratio mehehehe there!” He whined between heavy giggles as he continued to prod his ribs.

“If you don’t want to be ratioed I’d advise you to start behaving.” He smirked. “Now I’ll ask you again, are you sorry for attacking me?”

“Yehehehehehehes!” He tittered, squirming around.

“Good. And are you going to do that in front of the students again?”

“Y- Nohohoho!”

“Satoru.”

“I mehehean’t nohoho!”

“Gojo, I need your help with this dumb technique…” Megumi announced as he came through the class room door. “Stop whatever weird shit you're do…ing.” 

He paused, looking up from his phone upon hearing laughter, he blinked as he took in the scene before him. “Right… I’ll just come back later.”

“Wahahahahait! Dohohohon’t leave me here!” 

Megumi lingered in the doorway for a moment longer, weighing his options, then he slowly stalked over to the two as Nanami paused his attack, glancing over at the edgy teen cautiously.

The black haired student crouched down next to his father, staring at him blankly. “Hey, Gojo… remember that time you dropped me off at school and said; ‘Have a good day my pretty princess’ to me?”

“Your face… got so… red…” He giggled between breaths.

Megumi looked up at Nanami, an evil glint in his eyes. “Can I help?”

Satoru gasped as Kento chuckled at Megumi’s question. “Sure, why not?”

“Megumi don’t you dare!” 

“I’m kind of bad at this…” Megumi ignored his adoptive father’s warning. “I only really do this with Itadori and Nobara.”

“Don’t worry, Gojo’s pretty easy to take down.” Nanami resumed his poking at his ribs. “Just go for the ribs and he crumbles, he won’t be able to use limitless If you do that.”

“Hehehehehey! Dohohohon’t ignore me!” Gojo laughed, squirming around uselessly.

Megumi blinked, following Kento’s lead and beginning to poke and prod at Satoru’s ribs, causing him to squeal and laugh harder. “Like this?”

“Yeah, he hates that.”

“I mehehehehean it! Stahahahap ignoring me!”

“He reeeeally hates when you get the spots between the ribs, or the bottom set of ribs.”

“What happens when you do both at the same time?” Megumi asked, a small evil smile on his lips.

“Dohohohohon’t eheheheheven!”

“Hmm… good question, Satoru, what happens when we do that?” Nanami asked teasingly.

“I kihihihihill you bohohohoth!” He answered with all of the ferociousness of a baby pigeon.

“That’s not very nice.” Nanami mumbled, massaging his thumbs into his lower ribs as Megumi began focusing on the ticklish spots between his ribs. “I think you owe Megumi an apology.”

Gojo shrieked and threw his head back as raucous laughter forced its way past his lips. “NAHAHAHA! Nahahahahat thehehehehere! Nahahahahat thehehe rihihihibs!!”

“Man, he’s really sensitive here.” Megumi mused, speeding up his tickles to draw more frantic laughter from the white haired teacher. “Not so fun having your vulnerable spots exploited, is it?”

“Ahahahahahahaha! Youhuhuhu cahahan’t sahahahay it either! Thahahahat’s adohohohorable!”

“Can’t say what?” Megumi asked, raising an eyebrow.

“You never learn… Do you?” Nanami sighed.

And then, chaos.

With a flicker of green glow, Satoru’s worst fears were recognized. His ribs were now a ratioed weak spot.

When Gojo screamed bloody murder, Megumi pulled his hands away as though they’d been scalded, his dark eyes widening in surprise. “What the…?”

But there wasn’t any loud sound to follow, just silent laughter, frantic gasps between what was assumed to be laughter and heavy chest heaving.

“Ah… finally, he’s quiet.” Nanami chuckled, not slowing down his merciless onslaught on his extremely vulnerable ribs.

Megumi blinked as he processed. “Oh… right, he did say that ratio could be used for things like this.” he commented as he reintroduced his fingers to Gojo’s ribs, focusing on the upper set while Nanami attacked the lower set.

Satoru arched his back so sharply as he silently cackled that for a split second Nanami worried he might hurt himself so he allowed ratio to dull, only slightly increasing his ticklishness now.

With a few more panicked gasps, the volume returned to his laughter, tears accenting the corners of his tightly shut eyes. “BAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I CAHAHAHAHAHAHAHANT!”

Hearing how his laughter had reached a crescendo of desperation, Nanami decided it best to end the attack soon. “Are you sorry for picking on Megumi?”

Gojo nodded, tears now rolling down his cheeks as he howled with laughter.

“The next time you want to be tickled, are you going to ask instead of being a menace?”

Gojo nodded.

“Do you mean that?”

“GUHUHUHUYS PLEHEHEHEHEASE!”

Megumi exchanged a look with Nanami, and the two stopped their ticklish assault on the smug teacher. “Hm…” The edgy student hummed thoughtfully.

As the two backed off to give him space to recover, Kento glanced at the dark haired teen. “Something on your mind?”

“Well, it's just… how did you manage to get a hold of him in the first place? I know you said tickling him disables his ability to use limitless but,” He paused, glancing down at his unusually flustered adoptive father. “He could have easily used limitless to stop you from getting him… does that mean he wanted to be tickled?”

“N-No, don't be ridiculous… he just snuck up on me.”

Nanami chuckled, shaking his head. Deciding not to answer.

“Are you sure? Because Itadori and I have tried to sneak up on you and you caught us every time.”

“Which reminds me--” Gojo sat up, grinning at Megumi now that he caught his breath. “You didn't seriously think you'd get away with tickling me, did you?”

Megumi’s eyes widened as he jumped back out of reach. “Gojo…! Don't even!”

“I'll deal with Nanami later.” He grinned that predatory grin as he stalked after him. “But sneaky little traitors like you need to be dealt with swiftly and without mercy~”

Megumi shrieked as he took off running with Gojo hot on his tail, leaving Nanami behind to smile in exasperation and shake his head. 

Not that he'd admit it, but he was thankful for the small distractions from the dangers that lurked outside. He was thankful that instead of the school being filled with anguish and mindless droning, that today it was instead filled with laughter. At least for the time being…

It has nothing to do with Satan, Mama. It's me. Me. If I concentrate hard enough, I can move things. - Carrie (1976).

WOOOOWEEEE- 💀

I'm SUPER late to the Halloween party with this piece, but truth be told the last months of October-December 2023 were busy as hell! So I initially planned to post this piece on New Years Day, but unfortunately, tragedy happened within my family, which at that point posting was the least of my worries :0(

Things are slowly clearing, so now I have the emotional/mental energy back to share this piece I worked hard on! I'm super proud of how this came out, and how wonderful IbisPaintX is to make doodles/finals on the go on my phone! Also huge thanks to @thetageist ( https://thetageist.newgrounds.com/ ) for giving me this suggestion!! Even gave them a spot on the credits wheeee 📽️

Bonus to you my fellow Tumblr dwellers, y'all get the individual sides to view and see (cause hooray for multiple photo posts!) 🎉

I rarely get to draw Amy, so having the challenge of redrawing her to the Carrie 1976 (USA poster) was an awesome and challenging experience, I got to test out some techniques I learned along the way ✨

I plan on doing this for 2024 as well, it was too fun to not try again! Happy super late Halloween y'all 🎃

I was fully inside a pipe today fixing welds (a tight squeeze for my big beefy shoulders) when one of the guys started spinning it. we’ve been doing this to whomever is in a pipe that day, but I hadn’t been spun yet, so after the initial jumpscare it was actually quite fun. I had been lying on my back fixing a weld above me which wasn’t the most comfortable, so once he’d spun me 180 degrees he was gloating like “do you want spun back again?” and the funniest thing to do to this guy is to make his antics backfire so I was like “no actually this is way better for what I was welding! Thanks so much!” and he was like SHIT! GOD DAMMIT!! FUCK’S SAKE!! 🤭 I’m gonna go in the pipe tomorrow and ask him to spin it. literally wheeee yippee

for the hbowar ask game, a, f, i, l, o, v, w (unrelated to the ask game: xoxoxoxo)

a. okay he's not underrated because I think people definitely like him but here's the thing I would smash Patterson like a hammer

f. ranking the shows oh no i'm so sorry everyone but i did not like...

4. The Pacific. I'm just being honest right now. I liked certain parts and certain characters A LOT but it all felt too disjointed and there were too many through lines and it was (this sounds bad bc war and trauma and tragedy but hey I watch tv for entertainment) depressing. I didn't like a war show bc war is depressing, I know how ridiculous that sound.

3. Masters of the Air. Not anywhere near as depressing, but much more disjointed. I couldn't track or find a connection with most of the characters. It felt like too much telling and not enough showing about what I should care about and I want to seeeeee these things.

2. Generation Kill is probably my second-favorite, but I think about it all the time (and by all the time I really do literally mean all. the. time.) so I have to wonder if that's inaccurate? But you guys. It's so fucking good don't take this slight rank of #2 to mean anything besides it's so fucking good and I love it.

Band of Brothers, because it was my first love. Because winnix. Because gorgeous cinematography. Because Liebgott's jugular. Because "Doing fine, Bill, thanks for asking." Because Dick Winters shaving. Because Nixon's suspenders. Because F Company got lost again. Because Joe Toye's brass knuckles.

i. wheeee the fun one!

@ep6bastogne Babe. But not just sweet thoughtful funny Babe although yes that but also sobbing for Julian Babe devastated eyes meeting Gene's in Hagenau Babe.

@screwby Ray ur just Ray-Ray. A sweet chaotic gremlin of such a good and emotionally available friend who is also more down to talk dick than anybody I know.

@lamialamia You give me Snafu vibes but hear me out. It's not tossing rocks in brain puddles Snaf, but Peer Into My Eyes to Check for Disease But Also For the Flirt Snaf.

@blood-mocha-latte I don't know you as well but you started this whole thing and should get as much Being Perceived as you deserve for all that effort. You've got the Very Excited and Delighted attitude of Luz Talking Through The Movie, but also Snug as a Bug nurturing Luz. I'm not even saying this because of Luztoye week, this is just what I'm getting.

l. hbowar does seem a lot less hectic. I've never really participated in other fandoms, but I've lurked around the edges of Good Omens and BBC Sherlock and. well.

o. okay i'm bout to get slapped but. i don't really get luztoye. Obviously I was there for "Just give me a goddamn drink" and several other key scenes but...I don't know!!! Obviously the textual clues are there and they are not subtle, I just don't quite get how the two personalities mesh. Excited to read more fics until I do get it *hides*

v. snippet:

“Nate’s already made contact,” Ray argued. “Go on, homes, bring her a drink, make small talk, compliment her shoes. Whatever, dude. See what you can get out of her.”

“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Brad said.

Nate frowned. “You don’t think she’d be interested?”

Brad looked over to where Lara stood sipping her wine and pretending she wasn’t watching Nate’s every move. “I didn’t say that.”

Ray barked out a laugh. “Dude, I was listening in. She wants your tongue in her mouth, like, yesterday.”

Nate grinned widely and turned to make his way back over to Lara. Brad thought it would probably feel really good to punch something. 

“You okay there, Big Gay Brad?”

“Shut up, Ray.”

“Don’t worry, he can’t hear us. This is a special private channel just for you and me. You know, you could just tell him. You could walk right up to him and say, ‘Nate, your soulful green eyes and air of heroic tragedy give me a hard on like I’m a thirteen-year-old boy watching his cousin bounce naked on a trampoline. I want to suck all your pain and suffering right out through your dickhole.’”

w. What hbowar url I should have instead of my Fully Unrelated and Inscrutable url is an excellent question! Problem is Lenora/@screwby already stole the best one.

ouahhhh 😭

wait a second. hand on wall. on floor.

So unless you're having this read to you from the bad side of a Ouija board, you made it out the other end of issue seven's historically-speaking-pretty-short seven year delay alive. Which isn't too bad. And, honestly, we can think of another, much more popular project we're involved with that you're STILL waiting on: The Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, which began construction in 1886 and still isn't done, and which the Spanish government hired us to write a delay-themed blog post about after seeing an early draft of the blog post you're reading right now.

several weeks late b/c i had no idea it existed....i Didn't suppose i'd make it out of the then-indefinite now 7-yr-delay on the next tf2 comic alive which isn't too bad 😭

Hi! For the fic writing asks - 1, 13, 21, and 33!

Wheeee, thank you! <333333

1 is answered here.

13. What’s the best writing advice you’ve ever come across? I think a lot of the things that @ao3commentoftheday has said over the years have been so wise and so helpful, including 'write the bit you want to write' - you don't have to write all the connecting material if you don't want to, just write the scenes you want to write. I found it incredibly freeing, and it really helped me finish my ridiculously long longfics when I was stuck on them. <33333

21. How many times do you usually revise your fic/chapter before posting? Ordinarily, I don't at all - I read it over, maybe change a few words here and there, and then I post. Once something is written, I find it really hard to change it, because that's how it happened now. The collabs I've been doing with my friend recently have been so different, because she's very much an architect/planner, and she and I have been pinging ideas back and forth, writing bits, rewriting, adding, editing, taking stuff out, semi-RPing bits in four different ways and then writing them differently again - it's such an interesting exercise and I'm really enjoying it! And it's definitely making the story better - our styles are naturally very different, but working together like this is producing a coherent narrative and style that would probably be fairly difficult for anyone else to work out which bits she wrote and which bits I did.

33. How do you feel about crack? Oh, I LOVE IT. It depends on the fandom and the characters, and I hadn't actually written any for ages, but being back in a fandom with the aforementioned friend after 15-odd years has prompted some extremely fun and very silly crack fics because she has the craziest ideas (as well as the angstiest) and once she's fed them to me, the muses just get working. This has resulted in Somebody Told Me (three fics full of genderfuckery and poking fun at a character who is really going to have to stop pretending he's straight) and MONSTERS, ALYSSA! (also enabled by the same character's inspiration being an absolute solid-gold, copper-bottomed, ocean-going, prize-winning IDIOT who keeps doing ridiculous things in real time and being ludicrously cute about it XD ). I am having a whale of a time.

Thank you for asking! <333333 Anyone else fancy asking me some questions about fic? :D :D :D
