aahh i didn't even mean to, but it seems fitting to post a pic of my new tattoo on the car's first birthday ♥️
this band means so much to me and has done for well over a decade, and this album has truly rewired my soul, so it felt right to get this one done while i was in dublin for the last few shows of the tour for this album <3 (plus i really like the kind of meta-ness of getting 'body paint' tattooed tbh)
no because yesterday my friend convinced me to write some fanfiction as a way to get out my emotions and whatever
and now i have the first 5k words written of not-really-enemies-to-lovers, denial of feelings, idiots to lovers, emotional hurt/comfort, anxiety disorder james, hypersomniac regulus, good big brother sirius, maybe slow burn, kind of soulmates kind of not, healthy relationships, healthy coping mechanisms, oblivious idiots, jegulus trash (but not really trash)
and like, y'all, i know im biased but... it's like... really good so far. and i have so much more to write. the longest fic i ever wrote was a 1k word one-shot so this is kind of a huge jump for me.
but i'm so proud of it? i'm actually so happy right now
sorry just needed to share my excitement- i didn't know i needed this story in my life until i started writing it- i have no idea where it's going to go from here but can't wait to find out
Mm because I've been feeling kinda sucky about my art for the last week nice little self-improvement post over the past ehh 5 months or so?
Under a cut because it's literally just some art I've already posted from the last 5 months (literally the first finished drawing of LMK I did far back. It's literally only been 5 months why does it feel like a year. Geeze.) so I can see tasty improvement but uhh yeah
I just wanna say bc I KNOW you're somewhere on tumblr, to the teenage girl who attended Take Your Kid To Work Day at an office building in Ontario, Canada circa 2013 and had a conversation with a middle aged woman in which you showed her your Black Veil Brides fanart and fanfics and ship content and told her about different fanfic tropes including a/b/o verse bc she happened to know who Panic! at The Disco and Fallout Boy were and thus you felt the need to show her your bandblr ship art, that was my fucking mother and I had to clarify all that to her including looking my mother in the eye and trying to explain a/b/o verse without sounding like a lunatic.
It's been 10 years and I still regularly sent evil energies in your direction. Since you'd be probably two years younger than me and thus legally an adult now, please know if this post reaches you it's on sight.
you have to love people for real. and that means loving them as people who have flaws, and will annoy you or get on your nerves some times. treating them like a toy or product you can throw away when you get bored or upset is not acceptable. it's what we've been conditioned to do, but it makes the world worse.
this chapter has been so absolutely nuts that I actually low-key forgot that I had a couple of new UM posters to do! wild! anyway, I gotta think about Lilia's some more, so here is my beautiful electric crocodile son in the meantime. god I hope this reads properly
(I went with Volt to go with his name, but there's a Bolt version too in the print-size folder!)
