it’ll be a year soon

Home has some really important words to say to us, let's hear what they have to say..!

... Oh.

The audio that got me inspired to draw this lmao↴

One of the things that really gets me about Hardy and Miller's relationship in Broadchurch is how much the respect they have for each other shows in how they physically interact. Even when they're not particularly pleased with each other/the situation.

I mean, I think the fact that they don't sleep together even though there was plenty of incentive for the showwriters to add that in (the drama!!) says something already, but that's not what I'm talking about.

It's the little things. It's the fact that they barely touch at all even though Ellie seems to be pretty comfortable with physical contact -- whether it's meant to be affectionate or comforting or both. But Hardy isn't, and because Ellie's a pretty intuitive person she never attempts to touch him the way she would others.

And we see Hardy, in his turn, go out of his way to attempt to physically comfort her when he sees she needs support. The careful hand he puts on her shoulder when she finds out about Joe and the way he lingers a bit after that to see if she needs a shoulder to lean on.

Or the time he asks her if she wants a hug after the trial, because he knows she's the type of person to want a hug while going through something like that, but she declines because she knows he's not the type of person to go around offering hugs. That's the scene that really shows how much they've come to understand each other, I think: Hardy is willing to step outside his own comfort zone if he thinks it'll make her feel better -- he's willing to adapt for her because at this point they respect each other enough that things like this don't feel like an obstacle he can't overcome -- and she's unwilling to accept his offer, because it's not an olive branch or him warming up, but rather than that he's offering up a piece of his own comfort to make her feel better. And Ellie, who is generally too nice to allow people to do that, respects him too much to let him do so. Besides, I'm sure she'd just feel weird about it at this point.

Then at the end of season 2, when Hardy leaves and Ellie is there to say goodbye, it seems almost inevitable that they loop back to episode 1 and do hug this time. But instead Ellie extends a hand, and Hardy is almost surprised she doesn't hug him, maybe he's even a little disappointed (because that's what people do in these situations, right? Hug to say goodbye?). And in a sense we get an exact replay of the first episode, only now Ellie is offering Alec what she thinks he needs, whereas first he offered her what he thought she needed.

And maybe they were both a bit wrong, but only because they've come to respect each other's boundaries enough to make that careful miscalculation. And maybe they wouldn't have been wrong, maybe Ellie did want that hug and Alec did prefer the handshake, but only because the other was kind enough to offer exactly that to them, did they want the alternative -- to show their gratitude by shaping the situation to another's comfort, instead.

Happy Month of Volo day 1!!!

hey guys, it’s ya boy, queen of never finishing anything because i hate my art and spent too much time on the sketch and ran out of motivation 😎

This was drawn feverishly late last night for a Gauss Prime access giveaway I'm hosting on Tumblr here until February 10th, really happy with how this turned out! :)

Reference screenshot, early wips, and sketch under the read line.

Based on this screenshot from the Gauss Prime trailer:

Some early wips from a week ago:

Honestly kind of a scuffed start but I'm glad it worked out in the end

An additional quick pencil sketch made for the giveaway post that I like:

happy birthday to the most subtle actor on the planet, first kanaphan / happy one of my favourite little eclipse details day

they look kinda goofy zoomed in but whatevs :d

I thought Orym took the Warlock Initiate feat in the deal with Nana Morrie, but no! It's Fey-Touched! He gets one free Misty Step per day and has chosen Hex as his 1st level enchantment spell.

I went outside and tried to make a snowman. The snow’s not the right consistency for it, but I made some snowballs and kicked the snow around and I feel more alive than I have in ages

12 separate people in the notes of my kindof infamous elvish diary johnl*ck post (if u don't know what this is dont even worruy about it ahaha) have asked me if i have an autism diagnosis. an interesting statistic

I think it says a lot about a dog trainer when they put themselves on their logo.

And what it makes me say is: no thank you

In celebration of the new update, here is my MC for @collegetennisoriginstory , Avery Linden <3 he's my sunshine child and I love him, I would sell my soul for him, he would be really sad about it though

He's a bubbly cheerful person who likes to make friends everywhere he goes and is a great hugger. Hope Rayyan isn't allergic to hugs and kisses cus hes getting all of it :)

On court, he can be as bubbly but also very calm and calculating. His tactical awareness is his greatest strength. The ability to perform really tricky angled shots helps him execute carefully built up strategy to really render his opponents helpless. When it's all over, it's like a switch is flipped and he's back to his cheerful sunshine self: giving his opponents a big smile and a warm hug.

this is a few months old but whatevs. here we got Damoi Velour, a circus ringleader whose shows involve torturing humans with extremely brutal methods and feeding on the anguish of her victims <3
