keep your enemies close (featuring shadowgast scourger au)

full pic below the cut! it both is and isn't as spicy as the crop implies 😏

the problem with not voting in order to send the message that you hate all the candidates and the entire system and therefore refuse to participate is that it's completely indistinguishable, as a signal, from not bothering to vote because you think the system is great and all the candidates are great and you'd be fine with any of them. so you might want to rethink the strategy there

#this #not voting is not the solution folks.

the desire to pronounce words as they are said in their source language for the sake of accuracy vs the desire to not sound like a complete tool

#this #the looks people give me when i pronounce Chinese words in chinese and not english #I'm sorry that 'kung pao' is actually pronounced 'gongbao'

[ID: A digital illustration of Reani and Essek Thelyss from Critical Role. Their poses, especially Reani's, are inspired by magical girls. Reani stands with her left leg extended and her arms posed in front of her, Essek floats next to her in a similar position. Reani grins at Essek, who smiles at her. Behind them is a sparkly pink background. End description.]

Their post campaign friendship owns my heart <3

Percy and Vex working together on a history check (it's important To Me)

Wil Wheaton rolling five Nat 1s. In one session

The magic carpet losing its enchantment in a pit of acid and Laura's scream of horror from offscreen

Keyleth taking charge to save the ember roc

Keyleth conjuring a water elemental and Taliesin gargling water to translate her commands to it

And finally, the conversation between Keyleth and Percy where he privately confesses his own worries that he's going dark and that he's afraid of himself, and she expresses her concern for him and promises to be there for him

anyway c1 good

#critical role #vox machina #YES ALL OF THESE #also one moment I love a lot that's not on the list is when Keyleth (in minxie form) brings Vax a heart #I'm pretty sure that happened somewhere in this stretch

Local Artist Cannot Afford Not To Draw Chibi Caleb After Drawing Chibi Essek

including, but not limited to, a discord request to draw chibi Caleb, and i quote, "running into the sea chibiwilly-out"

on a more serious note, if you, like me, are an artist that mainly works in semi-realistic styles, i greatly recommend trying out drawing something exaggeratedly cute. been really healing my brain and heart

tip jar!

Happy Thursday!

Wanted to post this sketch of Fearne's redesign! I'm planning to do it with every BH member and then post the finished illustrations, but so far I'm still at the designing stage and I reeeally loved this Fearne's final sketch. Plus I wanted to share my vision before we see the official art of their titan forms (I really hope we'll get them!)
