#while locking the cats out

Text
I feel like I've been quiet on here the last few days, and that's because I've been spending my free time building knock-off Legos Mega Bloks
Here is 3 sessions of work across 2 days:
Here's what it's gonna be:
#my dad got me this for xmas last year#and I just never had a good workspace for it#but we changed our spare room into a dining room so I can spread out on the table#while locking the cats out#also! turns out when you decrease your screentime#your mental health improves considerably#shocking!

now that natlan is out it's tsaritsa yearning hours again because i am one nation closer to either being horribly disappointed or foaming at the mouth!
creator!reader w a little side of conflicted tsaritsa is such good food I can't not yap about it. a woman who has dedicated so much of her life to severing herself from "love" of all kinds and succeeding and. just being so confident that when she meets you she's bitter and angry and mean. because she can't stand you. she isn't supposed to love yet you worm your way into her heart anyway and you don't even know it.
especially in smth like an imposter au. she tells herself your just a tool for her to use but your treated like the Divine you really are, pampered and spoiled every step. tells herself it means nothing when she indulges you – let's you hold her hand in private, eventually let's you move aside the veil, just a little.
and she hates it. hates how easy it is to let you break down the ice she's built up for years.
all you do is smile and she feels like she can't breathe. because despite how violently she rejects love in all aspects, it always bleeds through eventually. she despises it but the way you brush your thumbs over her cheeks makes her bitter and warm and it infuriates her to no end.
she hates you and she loves you and she can't stand you and if you were ever taken from her she'd destroy every inch of teyvat if she had to go get you back.
and ironically enough I think she'd also be the one to initiate any first kiss. maybe she's still trying to convince herself it's just a fluke and itll make her realize it meant nothing, it means nothing. desperate to fix whatever you've done to her and instead it just makes it worse.
a horrible mess of a woman who gave up on love just to be confronted with it when she finally accepted it's absence.
#sagau#genshin sagau#self aware genshin#genshin impact sagau#self aware genshin impact#genshin cult au#genshin impact cult au#tsaritsa#new nation releases. i can only think abt the tsaritsa. checks out.#yearning so bad i cracked my phone screen but im still using it 2 make it everyone elses problem lol#this is kind of similar 2 another yapping session i wrote s while back but ehe#snezhnaya will ruin me istg#constantly torn between manipulative tsaritsa and tsaritsa who is nothing but tender because she is love. even if dhe rejects it#she is both and its horrible 2 try snd write like. okay.#soft tsaritsa is so tasty though....kissing your wrist in mock reverence before the archons#letting you snd you alone see her face beneath the veil. smug and horribly arrogant but so madly incomprehensibly in love it consumes u both#but also possessive tsaritsa is so 🤤#reverts to her old ways immediately. frigid ice cube until further notice. she won't confront them in front of you but lord#she is sending them to dottore STAT#shivering at the cold stare of the tsaritsa on your back knowing shes .7 seconds away from making teyvat enter an ice age#i hc her senses like taste/touch/smell r severely dulled. not related just a small hc :]#a fun fact if u will#soft tsaritsa is good but dhehjssjsjs tsaritsa being overprotective and possessive hits different rn.....#i need her to sling me over her shoulder and lock me away just let me bring my cat and heating pad im set#head empty tsaritsa scaring off any other wannabe suitors while acting innocent (no ones buying it bc her glare is MURDEROUS)#that and the floor is starting to ice over.#n e way 💤💤💤

how long does it take you to draw your sketches/doodles? also do you have any tips to draw faster? 🙇♀️
I generally take 30 - 60 minutes a sketch,,,, but honestly really depends on how detailed it is.
Like a Chibi will be done in 20 - 25 minutes (Counting in the extra time I spend on minute details like a perfectionist 😭)
I for some reason really like spending egregious amounts of time on random objects too??? Unless it’s the in the background, I’ll spend 40 minutes refining it.
Random characters that are fully colored and rendered with take like 80 minutes.
The comics take usually take an hour or two per page. (If I decide to cross hatch it, my entire day will be gone with 4 pages… so I’ve been trying to find shortcuts. But not without sacrificing the quality for time lol)
I don’t think there’s any trick or magic to drawing faster. It’s really about weaponizing your artistic knowledge, and finding what’s comfortable or convenient for you!
There was a period of time where I would spend 11 or 12 hours on an illustration, and it wASS UGLYYYYY. (Some of these artworks are still available on my tumblr,,, but it’s SO LONG AGO, AND IT WAS MY 1ST OR 2ND YEAR GETTING INTO DIGITAL ART)
Overtime I learned what worked best for me, and practiced till I felt more comfortable with what I was drawing. Eventually I managed to shorten the time to 4 hours or less! Ambition was my biggest enemy but at the same time my biggest motivator. (And it still is LMFAO) 😭
EDIT (bit more to my way too long tangent): ALSO??? BRO DON’T BE AFRAID TO USE YOUR MESSY SKETCH AS LINEART OR DRAW ON TOP OF IT. I’VE DONE IT FOR YEARS NOW AND IT ADDS SUCH A GOOD EXTRA BIT OF TEXTURE,, AT THIS POINT I DON’T EVEN USE LINE-ART ANY MORE UNLESS IT’S A COMMISSION,, (IT’LL ADD LIKE AN 2-4 HOURS TO MY WORK)
#mushyrt#asks#that word minute bothers me so much#I look at it and want to refer to it as the time minute#this sketch took about 3 minutes when it should’ve been 1 minute#BUT I WAS SO HYPERFIXATED ON THE EYESSS#i say these pretty words#but THE REAL TIP IS HONESTLY THE LASSO TOOL#LASSO TOOL IS THE BEST#IT’S MY FAVORITE TOOL FOR MAKING BACKGROUNDS OR QUICK SHADING OR COLORING#OR ALSO THE MASK TOOL#TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM#THEY’RE SO GOOD#Procreate mask tool kinda sucksss#SO USE ALPHA LOCK IF YOU ARE A CONFIDENT PERSON#OR NOT AFRAID TO F**K UP#Bro I sometimes draw on 1 layer and use alpha lock and my friends look at me like I’m a menace#BUT IT!S USEFULLLL AND SO EASY#This little tangent definitely should’ve been my answer for the ‘how much do you draw’ question#but I’ve been thinking about it for a long time#AND I’M A MANIAC WHEN IT COMES TO DRAWING 😭😭#even if you rob me of a paper or pencil I WILL FIND A WAY TO DRAW#I WILL SCRATCH INTO YOUR SHIRT AND ROCKS AND MAKE AN ARTWORK OUT OF WATER OR CAT FUR#YOU WILL NOT DEPRIVE ME OF MY CREATIVE ENDEAVORS#This didn’t stick out to me until one of my friends said ‘omg ofc she’s drawing’ under her breath#like I spend every second of free time I have drawing unless I find something else interesting#The only time I’m not drawing is when I’m on the toilet or doing random everyday stuff#I forgot to talk about this but greyscale to color is insanely useful too; it teaches you different values while also being super fast#i tend to use greyscale to color when I do a BW sketch I end up liking#TL;DR - Lasso Tool + Layer Mask + Alpha Lock + Sketch as lineart

🎶 🎬 💛 for the Cats ask game :o3
hi hello!!!! sorry this took so long 😭😭😭
🎶. Who’s your favorite ensemble cat and why?:
I’m fully in love with Jemima, but I don’t really count her as fully ensemble, just because of her multiple solos, and because of that, Pouncival is my favorite ensemble cat :)
He’s just the silliest ever, and I’m 100% obsessed. I love the way he’s hanging with the girls in skimbelshanks (the girls and pouncival™️), and me and my friends had a running joke for a while that was literally just iterations of “the girls, the gays, and pouncival <3”
🎬. What’s your favorite moment from the show?:
Moments of Happiness, 1998, specifically Jemima’s solo. It’s so perfect, ethereal, emotional, and whimsical. I can play it on the piano, and I can sing it :] it also makes me cry
Rapidfire a couple of moments from other shows:
Tecklenburg 2015: Bombalurina’s deliver of
“Das Gewächshaus ist zerschlagen”
in Macavity drives me so completely insane. The way she growls zerschlagen makes me so jealous, I WISH my voice had that sort of power.
Madrid 2003: Jemima again. Surprise! This time her solo in the middle of Memory, specifically, the way her actress sings the final “endless masquerading” line. It sounds so strong and gorgeous, I could rant about it forever
Vienna 2019: in the 2021 Ronacher album on Spotify, (WHEN I FIGURED OUT THAT ALBUM WAS VIENNA I FREAKED THE FUCK OUT. ITS SO CRAZY), the white cat solo, and Misto’s subsequent section sound really nice, I’m a big fan
💛. What’s your favorite familial ship?:
I’m not entirely sure what this means, but I’m a huge fan of Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer as siblings, PLUS Electra as their kid sister. I came up with it once and I think it’s super cute :D
Monochromatic siblings are a must, they’re also very special to me, along with Jennyanydots and Skimbleshanks as brother and sister :)
#asks!!!!!!!#THANK YOU SO MUCH HUGGING YOU TIGHTLY#I decided to listen to my compilation of my favorite cats songs while writing this out and man. it’s a good show#ALSO my father dropped one of the most interesting takes on cats that I’ve ever heard last night. just dropped it out of the blue.#maybe I’ll post it someday but I’m pretty sure he’s got it pretty locked down actually#ANYHOW I MISSED YOU CATS *cries*#thanks for giving me the opportunity to yap about this stuff :)))#guys I’m so 100% serious if any of you ever want to hear far too many opinions on the German versions of cats#I am here and ready I love German cats more than I love myself#cats the musical#cats musical#pouncival cats#im serious though when i figured out that 2021 katze was the same as Vienna 2019 i almost exploded with excitement

Wild is child who you need to keep stimulated so you can get things done. When I was younger I loved watching food network especially iron chef, unwrapped and good eats along with the holiday specials and it was to the point where my parents would have vhs tapes and dvds filled with the stuff to turn on for me when they needed to do important work and I see the chain or his s/o doing the same on his slate for him.
the only reason wild is able to cook so well is because whoever took care of him in the castle made him watch cooking shows whenever he wasn't training-- what's more, they would put on competitive cooking shows and that's why he's so critical of others cooking when he eats, it's canon, zelda told me herself
when it comes to keeping him busy nowadays, the chain or his s/o probably do it to keep him from finding out about a surprise or something. maybe they have to beckon him away somewhere private, sit down with him for a few minutes to watch an episode with him, and then leave to do whatever they have to do-- or maybe they're trying to finalize some paperwork but he keeps bothering and pulling them away, so they treat them like a cat by pulling up a chair and putting on a video while they work
#the palace answers#no bc imagine after lessons or social hour they lock him in a room with the tv on so he wouldnt wander out and get lost#they come in hours later to get him for dinner and hes still sitting there with the most entranced look#cats having their own computers while their owners work is so cute to me#linked universe x reader#lu x reader#loz x reader#legend of zelda x reader

Cat Command
#thinking about the vulcan/human pairs on star trek and how they can typically be 'cat - dog' pairs#and how even though Janeway is a dog person she herself strikes me more as a cat#she's the type of cat who's getting into mischief while locking eyes with you while Tuvok is the cat who does NOT want to be pet#He will sometimes get close and purr but then you reach your hand out and he swipes at it then runs away - how dare you v_v#Chakotay..........big sleepy dog???#bee doodles#Tuvok#Kathryn Janeway#Janeway is not immune to suddenly running away from a petting session either v_v - that's enough! too close!

my entire family goes to bed at 9:30 because i live with fucking old people (im joking. somewhat.) and from then on i have to move around the house quietly. this wouldn't be a problem except that my door is incredibly and uniquely fucked up and nigh impossible to open even remotely quietly
#and it can't be left open because the cat will beeline into my room and make my life hell#every door in my house is absolutely fucking horrible in its own way but my room is really bad#the doorknob is like. dislocated. or just made for a much thicker door because the middle part of it is like 3 cm too long#and i either have to align it carefully or pull on it (makes a very loud sound) and then using a very specific amount of pressure turning#while continuing to pull on it so it won't pop#oh and i can technically open it turning both directions but going right makes it pop so fucking loud it's actually ridiculous#the very unpleasant sound of painted metal on painted metal#kiwifae says shit#my partner of two years is just getting the hang of my bedroom door#my friend came over and literally got stuck in the bathroom cuz she couldn't make the door open again#she literally tried for a few seconds and then just yelled for me 😭#that door also pops open randomly sometimes. i do not know why. it didn't use to.#back when the front door was still semi functional i had to fish the literal latch out of the cavity in the lock with a screwdriver cuz my#mom kept slamming the door and misaligning it even though we told her that's what fucks it up#we can only deadbolt that door now. it literally won't close otherwise. (that's how we lost the cat for five days!)#(back when it still semi worked i was the only one who knew how to close it at just the right strength so it would stick but not fall out)#((why isn't there an eye twitch emoji))#but our other outside door exclusively has a deadbolt. that's the only mechanism.#i'm the fucking door wizard in my house and i cannot WAIT to move somewhere where i have functional semi modern door handles#gawd bless i want to kill my fucking landlady

Pictured: a fleabag
(it is actually extremely impressive she managed to catch fleas when she never leaves the house and I leave the house only to take out my bins, and etc etc the list goes on, the vet was impressed with her flea acquiring skills let's put it that way)
#my cats#kiadanta#anyway yeah both the cat and the entire house are getting extensively flea treated#though not with the same products#for obvious reasons#in fact it's only taking so long because my house is inconveniently partitioned#so i need to lock the cat up in a separate ventilated room while different parts of the house get sprayed and aired out#and this must be repeated at least a couple times#because fleas are immune to poison when theyre cocooned so you can only catch the larvae and adults right away#and sometimes the cocoons can last a hecking while#slaps roof of cat / this babygirl can fit so many flea#this is why beans video is delayed btw#anyway other than the fleas the cat is entirely healthy. vet was pleased#and now she will poison any flea that tries to drink from her so that's nice#been enjoying picking dead fleas out of her fur#serves them right for infiltrating the fur of Kiadanta my beloved

Cat has learned that she can bring her toys to me and I'll throw them for infinite hunting fun.
Unfortunately, she has also learned that she can smack her toys off the top step and cut out the middle man (me), much to the displeasure of both the people on the other side of my stairs and the people below me 😐
#cat#kitten#the longer i have her the more I'm finding out that she's a really smart cat. which is not good.#i don't have the means to catproof a lot of the stuff she gets into#i figured she'd be a big dumb baby like most cats. just two brain cells and all the bastard energy#but she has the normal level of bastardry as most cats but is like smarter than most I've had#and that scares me#like. when she does something she shouldn't there's like a sentience in her eyes that says 'yeah. i did that. what are you gonna do?'#and sometimes the answer is lock her in the bathroom or laundry room for a bit#cleaning is impossible. if i don't lock her away she destroys all my progress.#she's learned how to break into the dog's food and the drawer where i keep her toys at night#(because if i don't lock up her toys she'll bring all of them to my bed and drop them on me but also play with them loudly so i can't sleep)#she's figured out she can lift up one of my smaller rugs and push her toys underneath so she can hunt them there#she knows how to set off my motion activated hall light and does so if I'm not giving her enough attention (while I'm sleeping!!!?!)

I’m not gonna own dogs when I move out.
#Jesus. I love them so much but. incredibly stressful animals to be around.#(as far as we can tell the little puppy we’re fostering got thrown around a lot by another dog while we were out.)#(there’s no permanent damage as far as we can tell but he’s extremely freaked out and clearly bruised/in pain. extremely not fun.)#you just. you can’t really get mauled by a cat. they don’t lock up like stick figures and get injured.#if I’m gonna work in a field dealing with hurt animals I can’t go home to hurt animals#vent tw
