WIP Wednesday
Welp, I’m taking the plunge and drawing something using my own lines and colors. The base sketch was traced, but I’m trying to do my own line work. After resizing the canvas, my lines stopped looking so pixelated, and I’m starting to find movements that feel good to draw. The face isn’t quite how I want it to be, but there’s time to tweak it. Overall, I’m much happier with how this version of Rumpel is coming out. We’ll see if that feeling lasts!

Why are people acting like another Trump administration couldn't possibly have any lasting consequences, when we're still dealing with the aftermath of the Reagan administration now.

They called her the QUEEN
But she loved being Eddie’s PRINCESS
Because he treated her like a GODDESS

Unpopular opinion: not everything that makes you uncomfortable is bad. Sometimes discomfort means your worldview is being challenged. It’s okay to sit with discomfort and think about where it’s coming from.

the only reason why ten year old girls are destroying stupidly overpriced products at sephora to make “skincare smoothies” is because they aren’t being given access to a yard with a variety of mud, sticks, rocks, puddles, and old ceramic planters to make potions in. the children yearn for the apothecary

Just a reminder that your character doesn't have to be aloof, grumpy, or goth to be aromamtic or asexual. They can be the most friendly, pastel-themed, tactile person in the entire cast, and that's still valid.
Despite stereotypes, if you have a character, and are thinking they'd make a great aro/ace character but don't want to, because they don't fit the stereotype? Do it anyway. They can be aloof, and goth! But, as a cottagecore, friendly, cuddly asexual, we don't have to be.
Aro/ace representation beyond the stereotype is still valid. You, or your character, do not have to be aloof and disgusted at relationships, or wear certain clothing to be valid. + dont feel afraid to write in queerplatonic relationships! Write them! Make then go well, make tjem go poorly, its a relationship just like any other, with thwie ups and downs.

Sounds like you should have a nap. THEN FIRE ZE MISSILES! (Or tell me about your DnD character. It's something I don't know much about but always looked like a fun thing to get into!)
It’s a ton of fun - especially if you’re playing with friends, and ESPECIALLY especially if those friends happen to be storytellers. I’ve played tabletop RPGs with people who aren’t storytellers before, and it’s fine, but those players tend to be more concerned with battles and mechanics than the story being told. Which, if that’s what they like, good for them! But I’m playing with eight other people who are emotionally invested in the story the DM has created for us, and it’s just incredible. This past weekend we drove each other and ourselves to literal tears.
And you don’t necessarily need to know all of the lore of DnD to play! Plenty of games take place in other worlds. The one I’m playing now does. I’ve seen DnD campaigns set in a fantasy high school suburb, in modern day NYC, hell - even a GOT-type political intrigue campaign that took place in a refrigerator, where all the characters were food! The possibilities are limitless.
Anyway - my character. The whole premise behind him was “what if, in the Disney version of Beauty and the Beast, the breaking of the curse didn’t heal the fatal knife wound?” Things have sort of spiraled from there. This character is partly inspired by the Beast, by Rumpelstiltskin, by Alphonse Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist and RobotMan from Doom Patrol, by Rime of the Ancient Mariner, and probably several others I’m not remembering. He’s a loser barbarian wife guy who was supposed to be all aloof but has somehow found himself as the party’s dad figure.
Thank you for indulging me! If you ever do decide to get into DnD, I’d love to hear about it!

First off, take a break. Rest up. Feel better. I can't speak for Hellcheer, but Rumbelle has been around for a while--we're not gonna abandon your fics if you take some time off. Hopefully you'll come back stronger than ever.
Secondly, how do you write when you're not writing? Do your art projects ever help with your fandoms? Do you plan out plots or think about character stuff? Make playlists? Did/does the soap making inspire you?
The art projects mostly just help me relax. Honestly I think the most helpful thing they’ll do (once I stop being afraid to draw my own shit instead of tracing or following tutorials) is getting random fic ideas out of my head. Some of my ideas are less story ideas and more images/vibes, so
 yeah.
I’m honestly still figuring out how to write without writing. I’m so used to just cracking open the scrivener document whenever I think of writing, so right now I’m training my mind NOT to do that. I’ve spent the past
 almost four years, wow
 obsessing over getting updates out NOW NOW NOW! In doing so, I kinda burnt myself out, and that was before four months of sleep deprivation, so
 yeah. Gone are the days where I can squeeze 30k words out of my head in a single week by treating my brain like the world’s most abused tube of toothpaste.
I’m also channeling both Eddie AND Rumplestiltskin (mostly Rumpel) into my DnD character, which absolutely helps.
