I'm trying to just get back into drawing more so have some sketchy sketches

[ohbo-ohno]

hate the stage of writing smut where you have to come up with conversation that isn't the most boring ever. why do they have to talk before they fuck. can't i just be like "blah blah blah, you get it, here's smut". transitional dialogue should never be necessary in porn but here we are!!!

In the art of sasuke with the bottle naruto is keeping score of his beetles fighting and the page says "nasa" or NS too lol

I see SA and NA. And Naruto is apparently winning.

Interesting visual language.

Not only it shows team seven dynamic pretty accurately, it is also humorous and clever.

So it's summer season and it's hot out and team seven is enjoying watermelons. Watermelon as a fruit is quite tied up in Japanese culture. It's considered quite a luxury. Watermelons are offered as gifts. Fruit is generally quite expensive in Japan. And watermelon is quite a popular summer fruit there. It's symbolic of summers. As it should be. They also grow square watermelon in Japan btw. They are always up to something, in that country. Lol.

Anyway, I digress.

Naruto is in his own world and it makes sense because the time period is pre time skip, when Naruto was generally more obtuse about his feelings for Sasuke. He is playing a Beetle match, where Naruto beetle is winning against Sasuke beetle. Naruto is on top of the world heheh, my lil sweetheart. This is basically proof that their rivalry was never rivalry in the true sense. It was always a way for Naruto to get close to Sasuke, which is something Naruto tried to repress a lot but it all came out during vote one. In war arc, Naruto doesn't even hesitate to admit Sasuke is better than him. Like it's not even a matter of concern for him. He has already seen what Sasuke is capable of, he also knows Sasuke holds contempt for Kakashi and Sakura, for valid reasons too, but he tries to keep peace. But he is not lying about Sasuke being a remarkable shinobi, he already knows Sasuke is better than Sakura or Kakashi at battles.

It was never really about rivalry. And even though they both improved with a healthy competition between them, at the core of it, they are a team, a unit, the real cell 7, the main act. All Naruto wanted was to be able to talk to Sasuke, have his friendship and companionship. He didn't know any other way, he is an orphan who has always been on his own. He acts on instinct and his instinct told him that Sasuke was equally motivated to be a better warrior, just like him, and that was one platform where they could converge, they could establish contact that didn't require them to confront the more confusing feelings they felt for each other. At least for Naruto.

Sasuke of course is much more in touch with his feelings regarding Naruto, pretty much in his character, he knowingly and premeditatedly died for his beloved in land of waves arc, for love. In this art, even though Sasuke is annoyed at Naruto's obliviousness, his gaze is entirely focused on Naruto, oblivious to everyone else there. Including Sakura lol. Again very much in character. It's one of Sasuke's pet peeves, how much he is not able to resist Naruto's charm despite his obliviousness and Sasuke loathes himself for it but still cannot help it. His expression here looks like annoyance with a hint of longing. He loves Naruto and certainly tries to get his attention.

In land of waves arc, he matches his pace with Naruto while blushing as Naruto is rattled and suspicious of Sasuke but all Sasuke intended was to be by his side, as it is later symbolised as well, in chapter 698, where they are holding each other's phantom hands, lying half dead side by side but smiling and happy. And their interlocked hands look like a bloody heart. Btw Sasuke had already accomplished something in the first arc itself which happened to be something Hinata wanted since day one and couldn't accomplish until her cousin had to facilitate it for her in the last arc. By dying. And even in that panel, holding Hinata's hands, Naruto looks like he just saw a ghost lol. With Sasuke, he looks finally at peace.

Sasuke tries to get Naruto's attention when he asks him about chakra control. Naruto is so surprised hehehe. Subtext - Why is he coming to me for help, is he up to something? Well, I am not going to give him the satisfaction. 👅.

And Sasuke mentally facepalms himself.

Naruto's obliviousness needles Sasuke, he is the ultimate tsundere, PTSD ridden warrior/avenger who has steeled his heart against love, but still can't help opening up to that one idiot he adores so much but the idiot is too naive to get it. Alas. Lol. I mean there's a reason he anointed Naruto as his 'usuratonkachi' (thin hammer, a casual insult meant for slow, useless folks).

Sakura is standing at a distance, focused on Sasuke and trying to get his attention but to no avail because he is busy mentally cursing both himself and Naruto.

Sakura is practically wetting herself, pun unintended, her body language is reminiscent of Hinata's in this panel.

Look at the body language of both Sakura and Hinata. Both holding their knees together, bashful, their bodies bunched up what with all the butterflies in their stomach, probably increased heart rates and resultant nervousness, you can practically see their heart eyes that are focused on their object of desire. Sakura of course is more obvious about her object of desire while Hinata is more shy. But both are in the throes of their crush, while the boys are totally, indubitably, entirely unaware of the girls' existence. Lol.

Kakashi obviously is far away from them, camouflaged, almost invisible to the eye. Not interacting with his team. Pans out. The great copy ninja, never even began to understand Sasuke, Naruto or Sakura. Mostly instinctively wrong about all of them. heh. Where you see Gai's involvement with his team, where he backs Lee without question, where he scolds Tenten when she complains about the hard training, treating her just like how he would treat a boy. Or Neji, when he is the only one to back him up after his chuunin battle with Hinata is concluded, what with her embarrassing defeat and everyone descends down to defend her.

Kakashi on the other hand thinks Sakura is not violent, who is not the bragging type, who loves Sasuke like a mature woman, who thinks Sasuke was in the wrong about everything he did including his disdain towards Sakura and his own goal of killing Itachi, who thinks Naruto and Sasuke are rivals and that's what motivated Naruto. Of course he is wrong about all of it. But that's all in his character. An emotionally inept yes man.

Finally, there was something I had noticed about Sasuke in this art but I always felt a little hesitant talking about it. Yes, the bottle in his mouth. Now if you look at it, the mouth of the bottle stops at Sasuke's lips. It doesn't seem that the neck of the bottle is that long that part of it would be inside Sasuke's mouth.

You can clearly see the rim of the bottle at Sasuke's lip. Which is the right way of drinking from a bottle. But the sweat drop, the towel and his bangs collectively make it look like the neck of the bottle is totally inside his mouth and is protruding when it isn't. It's a visual trick. lol.

Kindly refrain from saying it's accidental, please don't insult your intelligence and the artists'. Kishi is not an amateur, he knows what he is doing. Very well. He has admitted Sasuke was the character he put the most effort in order to render his design and expressions right.

He is very attentive to detailing and his own brand of visual approach. And it's not like this is the only suggestive art he made for Sasuke and Naruto. Heheh.

The only thing that seems out of character in this art is the plate kept under Naruto's chin that is collecting all the dripping watermelon juice. No way Naruto would use a plate for this reason. I doubt it would even occur to him. Hahaha. Maybe Sasuke kept it there, it's possible. That would be in his character.

In any case, the supposed team seven dynamic is pretty visually consistent in this art, where Sakura is kept out of the picture, so is Kakashi. Both of them quite far back in the background. So Kishi wants you to notice Naruto and Sasuke first. And the watermelon. Sasuke's expression naturally takes your eyes to Naruto again and forces you to pay more attention. And then you see the other details, like the beetle match and scoreboard. After that, you see Sakura in the background and it surprises you that she is so far at the back doing something suggestive like that. But it makes sense because when it comes to Sasuke and Naruto's relationship, that's where she stands. Far away in the back, lol. And then, you are just entirely surprised to see Kakashi is even there. Most people simply miss him. And when you do notice him, you think, well that's silly.

Sakura wants Sasuke's attention desperately but she cannot have it, it's registered only for Naruto. Heheh. While Naruto is just lost in his own fantasy of being with Sasuke while Sasuke is just frustrated at his innocence.

Bang on Kish. Once again.

Okay so the new (leaked?) image to me looks like it could be from the same scene as the production shot:

It looks to me like Spider is still wearing his exopack strap (and mask in photo 1), possibly still strung over him. I think it's more likely Spider is just lying down/experimenting with what it feels like rather than actually going inside the link??

I'm really not sure!!! 😭😭😭 I just don't KNOW because we also have this interview from Jack Champion:

"So I did two years of performance capture with the rest of the cast on the grey soundstage volume you know... acting with them, right next to them, and then I did another two and a half years in New Zealand of live action with blue paint on in my loincloth, by myself, acting to tennis balls and foam faces and stuff.... and honestly it 's not as hard as it seems because once you have built up that rapport - that bond - with someone years ago, and I've done all my scenes already, so.. that was just a giant rehearsal, and I'm doing them now for real, I can just look back on my past acting experience during that time and just use it for the scene."

From this it sounds like all of the performance capture that Jack Champion did was only used somehow as reference for interacting with other Na'vi/recoms, and then they did the live action stuff when they knew already what the blocking needed to be.

the coming out ask becomes even more hilarious if you think about jean having twitter wars with people replying to the comment

some random guy who was at an event at the same time as kevin: he smiled at me once and i came in my pants

jean, almost foaming at the mouth: what the fuck did you just say

especially if it happens to be a celebrity that they interact with pretty often, who now has a 6'5 man trying to set them on fire with his eyes

(you can't really blame him, he's been dealing with this for 5 years and can only now do anything about it)

phew okay, catching up on my asks b/c Dec & Jan have been train wrecks on my schedule, but these asks are all amazing and too good to stay buried in my inbox...

Anon, this is HYSTERICAL. I LOVE picturing Jean starting twitter wars b/c he is going to DEFEND HIS MAN (ahem, MEN). And honestly, it's totally something I feel like Jean does with relish once Kev is officially ~his~.

JEREMY: *speaking quietly on the side of the red carpet* Jean, babe, you can't threaten to punch Ryan Gosling in the mouth every time we see him.

JEAN: But he put Kev on his list of most handsome men in Hollywood! And did you SEE the way he looked at him over the cheese table???

---

KEVIN: so...is the plan to avoid Luke Evans forever? Because I'm thinking that's going to be a problem since he's one of our team's main sponsors.

JEAN: He is a THREAT. And I will treat him as so.

KEVIN: Uh-huh. But you know I'm going to have to shake his hand, right?

JEAN: *HISSES*

KEVIN: *sighs*

--- *slightly NSFW* ---

JEREMY: um...how long has he been there exactly?

KEVIN: *not looking up from his book* four hours.

JEREMY: ...

KEVIN: it started with a comment about my latest headshot and devolved from there.

JEAN: *typing furiously* the FUCK do you mean he wouldn't look good in a collar? He'd look AMAZING. He'd be the bestest boy in the whole damn world, don't you DARE fucking come at me -

KEVIN: I've been tuning him out for the last three.

JEREMY: uh...*blushes*...well, I mean....he's not wrong

KEVIN: *Lifts an eyebrow as he slowly puts book down before smirking at him* oh, this isn't about me anymore. For the last hour, he's moved on to you.

JEREMY: *swallows* oh.

(Also, this is the post anon is referencing FYI)

If we lived in the Pokemon World, we would have Eevee People vs Pikachu People memes instead of Dog People vs Cat People Memes

Like this;

Someone: What kind of Pokemon do you have?

Eevee Person: He’s an Alpine Leafeon/Glaceon crossbreed, with a little bit of Lowland Jolteon thrown in-

Pikachu Person: A yellow one

First of all: I love Anon. I’ve sent you so much crap. (Sorry)

Second of all, thank you very much for writing your content, because whenever I go looking for Jason stuff it’s always “Jason x Reader”, and I just wanna torture the guy, yknow?

Third of all, was reading a thing where the bats read fanfic about them, and it reminded me of the Tweet fic, and I have no doubt that somewhere in that universe is a rated E (NOT for everyone) BatKnight enemies to lovers fic, and that must haunt everyone who knows the truth of their relationship.

Aww, thanks! And yeah...like. To each their own. Write for yourself. I just don't wanna be involved. I died enough times in Choose Your Own Adventure (oof, being burnt at the stake...uh-uh) to not wanna go through that again. :/

Jason: Whyyyyyyyyyyy meeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Antoine: Look. For the last time. That. Was. An accident. There were bombs in the road. We'd forced an emergency evac. We'd threatened the United States Military. I think a drone ran over a cop car with the cop inside. I know two more dumbasses got blown up fucking with one of the APCs. I didn't think that would happen.
