and speaking of that grey sequential benston comic of winston navigating the vulnerability of sexual intimacy, his being autistic, and sharing both individually as well as their interplay/overlap with a romantic partner, and how it was a moment in history too b/c i think that was when i committed like "okay Yes i'm drawing lil lines to indicate winston's lower lip (oft more specifically the inflection point of his chin created by his upper teeth but wherein the mouth geometry mean it affects the slope of his lower lip with his mouth closed," just as an aside b/c love finally committing to such details like lord how was i living before i could embrace the joy of the lil "z" lower lip scribble………………anyways like now i also remember why like some number of months ago? definitely like more than a year later someone barges in on anon like "remember when [invokes this comic, w/o enough familiarity to cite Character Names like i hadn't even then been posting abt winston billions for Months] what was that about" which i answered dismissively because what was that Ask about lmfao. when you send these things the hell exactly do you predict i'll say. yeah i made this involved labor of love drawing to also tenderly invoke this Autistic Headcanon for a character but yeah between that material specifically being contextualized thusly & via the implication of sexual intimacy between men dating i guess that's Haunting like what kind of weird shit is going on here, and the feedback i want is also one eons later dismissively asking me to explain myself to this anon with the cherry on top of "i did in fact explain myself to Anyone via the tags on the original post if you cared to look"
nothing's as cringe comp as this time a decade ago i was like "i went to this event relevant to people here, would anyone wanna hear about it via idk livestream or smthing or would that be uninteresting / Too Much" and got an anon telling me Not Now, Homestuck Updated lmfao but frankly even that one probably had kinder intentions lol. anyways lmfao like that message was Bad and it's weird when there's this venn diagram of "i didn't care enough to read the tags or know what characters were involved" and "i do care enough to send an anon Supposedly wanting further info about why that'd exist" like how about you just continue not being bothered enough to Not send the ask at all….
#patron saint of patience & graciousness out here & would've just deleted it but like the hell....#i don't need to pour eons of consideration into answering an ask that someone just fired off w/o consideration either lol#more likely to ignore other weird flippant asks from randos (or ones that are rude even inadvertently lmfao like. if you want an artist to#draw more of smthing they've already drawn; see if they take requests/commissions then maybe try the win win of complimenting that art;#do not send the anons just telling them ''draw more x'' like please. it's winston billions time forever now though so rip to them)#it's also just a bit bizarre anytime some source who ordinarily gives no feedback on xyz suddenly does so and to be like#offhandedly like ''oh tf is this'' lol like idk you tell me? why are we interacting Now.#obviously i dunno who any particular anon is but overall they're rare anyways so. and i don't wanna get in on some shtick w/anyone lmfao#like e.g. when people ''sign'' anons to be their pseudonymsona like. i have a rapport with like two and a half ppl. get outta here#no clue how good faith this particular anon meant the inquiry but either way a low effort endeavor on their part as the answer was right th#there in the tags & idfk how they could be paying enough attention to send an anon abt it eons later but not enough to know even the one#character i've been going on and on about the entire time like on what grounds are you sending this missive#but i know idfk weird things move people to send an ask. was never as popular as Whenever the other year when we started in on the topic of#dunking on fish / ocean life at 5am. what a bunch of weirdos (the fish)#art imitating life wins tho ig like ''what if winston's nervous cuz he thinks this request will come off weird'' & then smash cut to this#random message like ''what tha hell was that abt'' like idk did you lose sleep over it. figure it out#me in my first ''fandom'' like having a hell of a time AND i hadn't yet had the low self esteem circle around into a self esteem Boost#work up all the nerve to go ''is a random livestream smthing *i'd* be allowed to do'' & here's homestuck anon ljsdf#it was even funny at the time but lord...
