But what if they were all redeemed tho ?
This was a fun exercice, as heaven's colour palette isn't really one I'm used to x)

Who is (actually) the hottest Monsters & Girls character?
Link to poll: https://www.tumblr.com/idolomantises/745892368364060672
CW: This will be a long post;
(Note: this is completely for comical purposes, please don’t take this too seriously. I have all the respect in the world for @idolomantises and their work)
1. Sera
👍: Perhaps the titular character of the series, Sera is beautiful angel (literally) and is arguably the kindest character in the whole series
👎: I challenge you to draw this woman without screaming at yourself/into a pillow
2. Lili
👍: Endearing, welcoming, understanding, and can be very fun. Pretty much wears her heart on her sleeve with how open she is.
👎: Literally THE sexy character. It’s obvious why you picked her as the hottest, now go get better tastes.
3. Cheri
👍: She’s sooo soft omg. She’s so sweet you’ll have a sweet tooth just for her even if you don’t like sweets
👎: I will not talk ill of this lady because I literally cannot, but for all intents and purposes this is a contest to see who is the hottest, not the most wholesome. Sorry 🫡
4. Junior
👍: Blunt and cute, plus a goat. Cute goats are always an A+ character design. Where would we be without them tbh?
👎: Bluntness can lead to rudeness and or discomfort. Nothing super bad about Junior just prob not the best choice for this. Just sayin
5. Scylla
👍: Lord have mercy I understand where people are coming from. Hooo doggy what a woman.
👎: I can’t remember the exact post but I recall it being said that she bites your head off or something if you get too close or look at her weird. That’s no good
6. Ciel
👍: Easily one of my favorite designs. He’s definitely the prettiest boy of the entire cast
👎: One of those cases where he’s too good for you, ya know what I mean? He’s way out of your league I don’t make the rules
7. Catty
👍: Nya~ Very fashionable going off of recent appearances. Design hasn’t changed too much in comparison to others, meaning that
👎: I like dogs more, plus she’s not open with her thoughts and feelings, leading to awkward moments when she lets it all out
8: Luvart
👍: Big, beefy, strong, fire. Need I say more? She treats sex workers with respect for their profession and would be a completely package when you don’t consider…..
👎: …She has no qualms murking you just because and her greatest offense is being the arch rival of the best character a special someone
9: Adam
👍: Dude can become a dog for you to pet and is quite honest in most cases. Plus those scars look neat wouldn’t you say?
👎: Unless you are a - former angel now fallen, a TV show host, have a broken halo, while simultaneously sharing a name with a pizza company and a game tile, then you ain’t getting nothing.
10: Domino
👍: I can see why so many are stricken by this fella, he’s quite cute, quirky, and has an adorable way of being blunt
👎: (Domi- No hoes) He’s just not good enough. He seems so ideal at face value but he berates angels to the moon and back and for what? His fault for his own downfall.
With all that said, clearly the hottest character of Monsters and Girls - for appearance AND character - is obviously….

Sooo I recently became obsessed (again) with this show!! So I decided to do a couple doodles of Angel for fun, cause he’s definitely the most interesting to draw! I’d be happy to take requests if anyone had any. :)

tag game: 9 people you'd like to get to know better
thank you!! @pomegranates-and-onyx and @lowoliet!!! <3 I'm missed doing these tbh. I reordered the items so the sequence makes more sense xoxo
Favorite color: I usually say purple but I don't really feel that strongly
Relationship status: lmaoo I'm aro (greyro-ish?). I actually have long thought I would like to fake-date/date for fun, but just the other day went "I still haven't kissed anybody and I know plenty of ppl have a 1st older than me but tbh I don't think I ever will". Other than that, I've got a few friends I really like, a few friends I kinda don't, and some people in between. Solid nuclear family tho 👍
Currently consuming (eating, by the looks of the trend): Waiting on a response from a friend to see if her cookies (mint & chocolate) are tree nut-free. I hope I can eat them; they look great.
Last song: "Capital M-E" by Taking Back Sunday (I cheated a little b/c last night I listened to a bunch of random songs lol)
Current watching: Dan and Phil? Hbomb's latest video? theoretically, Death Note, Cunk on Earth, and Akira and Akira.
Last movie: Die Hard haha
Three ships: lawlight, tntduo … hm, Arthur/Eames from Inception is a favorited Ao3 tag I do regularly go back to
First ship: Not *too* sure either but I think it HAS to be Snowbaz b/c of the Fangirl -> Tumblr blog stalker thing & that book introducing me to fandom (whoops, that 'thing's not universal knowledge... after Fangirl I scoured Rainbow Rowell's blog which led me to gingerhaze.tumblr.com (he did the cover art) and b/c I couldn't read Nimona online I read his blog instead. b4 that I only went to youtube.com and minecraft.net) WAIT NO. I've always considered genderswapped Johnlock (SheJane) to be my first ship hahaha. (yes, it had to be genderswapped. reality was different back then)
Currently working on: sooo *twirls hair* there's these Hamlet scene analyses (plural)... that were due today.... also some Calc I think... my portfolio for a writing contest... Blind Justice Light Yagami drawing, if the motivation holds. And my Death Note fics I listed here :D
tagging @detective-horse-girl @l3mon-boy @cmstyles19 @sophaeros @i-could-bee-an-angel & seconding @drfurter well @novaliae I know you pretty well but you too of course :) no pressure to anybody if you'd rather not do it tho! & feel free to join in the fun and let me know u would like to foster mutual affection :D

HAZBIN HOTEL REDESIGNS!!!!
I recently watched Hazbin Hotel for the first time! I've never been into it before, and I vaguely remember it when the pilot first came out years ago but I never even watched THAT!!
It's not............. the best show ever BUT I HAD FUN WATCHING IT!!!!!! I mainly like it bc I love Catholicism and the bible SOOOOO I'm rewriting it and I'll be posting ALL MY IDEAS!!!!!! (Ppl are gonna hate it LOL)
Close-ups + notes are under the cut :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
CHARLIE: OK SO I basically got rid of all the goat stuff that she (didn't) have going on ASIDE from the hooves hahaha, I didn't draw them here but she still has those bc I think they're COOL
So taking inspo from the fact that Charlie's design was based off porcelain dolls and marionettes, Charlie is LITERALLY a doll come to life!!! Lucifer and Lilith, bc they couldn't naturally conceive a child (bc Lilith is dead + is known to be responsible for the death of newborns), basically just made a child-doll and gave it life with their demonic magic!!!
I ALSO WANT CHARLIE TO CONSTANTLY BE TEETERING THE LINE OF LOOKING CREEPY AND FUCKED UP!!!! She's literally a living doll, I need ppl to look at her sometimes and be unsettled (sheep in wolf's clothing)
VAGGIE: Like Charlie, I'm completely throwing the animal (moth) motif that Vaggie (supposably) had. I'm mainly leaning more into Hotel Manager/body guard. WELCOME TO THE GUN SHOW!!!!!!
Honestly, I've changed Vaggie's design over 4 times and it's subject to change STILL. I gave her a cloak bc I think it's epic and I think she's epic and you'll be seeing her in future posts with what her outfit looks like without the cloak, it's a sleeveless collared shirt and she's got long fingerless gloves on :) AND THE CLOAK IS ALSO THERE BC I THINK SHE'S EDGY!!!! She's edgy and emo and amazing
I WAS gonna make her with awesome battle scars but then I remembered that angels can only be harmed with angelic weapons so :(((( no hot scars
ANGEL: MY ANGEL DESIGN IS NEVER CHANGING!!!!!! I have no notes, I think I'm in love with my Angel.
I heard somewhere that Angel in cannon has one black sclera and one white one bc he died with a black eye sooo..... He died with 2 black eyes LOL!!!
I didn't wanna give him prominent wrists and ankles bc I thought it looks cute :3
HUSK: He's a tuxedo cat, I think they're adorable and I think Husk is a 70 year old man who should be adorable. And NO BOW TIE!!!! I'M TIRED OF EVERY CHARACTER HAVING ONE!!!!
He's a frazzled drunk who's still Alastor's pet LOL
ALASTOR: I took a lot of inspiration for Alastor's design from Dr. Daddy-o, a radio DJ/host from New Orleans in the 1940's!!! I LOVE his voice and I wanted to base Alastor off of a BLACK RADIO HOST bc he's you know, BLACK!!!!!!!! Idk who that white boy is in cannon
He and Charlie are tied for the tallest in the cast, they're the same height (not counting his antlers)
I wanted to make Alastor look pretty human looking, aside from his antlers and deer ears ofc bc I don't think he needs to look scary all the time, he usually uses his words to provoke ppl anyway (and if that doesn't work THEN he'll use force) (Wolf in sheep's clothing)
NIFFTY: Niffty's design is based off Rosie the Riveter (WE CAN DO IT!!!!) especially with her her top, her hair and her headband/bandana.
I also made her taller than she is in cannon bc she's not the kind of character that the audience or even the other characters take seriously so in my head adding a couple inches to her will make me take her more seriously LOL

HEYYYY, saw ur requests were open and I wanted to get something in. How would you characterize Helen? Honestly, I’ve seen sooo many different interpretations with him being more “shy” and on the kinder scale of the creepy-pasta characters, and then him being just quiet, antisocial and a sociopath(I lean on this one more) Also, how do you think he would handle a relationship? If having one at all? It’s always fun to see people’s different views of the character lmao.
RAGHHHH BLOODY PAINTER🐺
Thank you for requesting<3! (Remember these are my personal headcanons, they most likely won’t relate to canon in any way. Also all other asks in my inbox are being worked on, thanks for requesting and staying patient!)
Bloody Painter Hc’s
I also lean towards the antisocial sociopath hc, however I also think if he really trusts the person he’d be open to a certain extent.
TWINK HELEN CAN DIE IN A FIRE HIS CREATOR CONFIRMED THAT HE HAS MUSCLE ON HIM AND IS NOT A STICK‼️
If he deems his victim pretty enough he’d paint them and either take it home or hang it on their wall.
I don’t really like the idea of him dating (Judge Angels) just because I hc him to be in his thirties as Dina to be 19 or her early twenties. But I do see them as friends.
Speaking of friends I like the thought of him and Puppeteer being friends.
While I do like the idea of the crp mansion (I still like it fanon ate with that one sue me😔) i think he has his own cabin. (Lots of the pastas in my hc do.)
I also feel like he has a pair of glasses that he uses when needing to paint small details or read. (He’s my grandpa/j)
RELATIONSHIP TIME
It’d be hard to get Helen into a relationship not impossible tho.
I feel like he’s demiromantic/demisexual
I’ve seen this multiple times and I agree that if he had interest in someone or was dating them he’d draw them.
He would be quiet and a bit distant at the start of the relationship mostly due to registering the fact that he’s in a relationship.
You WILL model for him he doesn’t care if you think you’re ugly or don’t like your body because it’s perfect to him.
Thinks you’re the prettiest girl/boy/person that he’s ever seen.
To go along with those he calls you his muse.
That’s it, I hope you enjoyed!

that time of year... (the layout is horrendous on purpose btw i thoguht it would be funny.)
ramblings below the cut again :]
january - jonmartin fanart,,,, i remember how much fun i had drawing this specifically their outfits :DD i still think its decent and i think its the piece i have with the most notes, which im grateful for but also like why
february - scenemo bingo and goth punk bluey fanart because i was awesome. i actually had my birthday (which was also that month) goth bluey themed. i think the art itself is kind of mid now especially bingo but the concept is awesome and more people should see my vision
march - i had no full art pieces :((((( so this is a jarthur doodle where they hold hands after arthur did something DIFFICULT!! i think its pretty cute. but it is just a doodle. sigh.
april - ASH WILLIAMS ?!?!?!?!?i think this is pretty cool tho the colours r kind of muted im a fan of the blood and the grey streak ... <3
may - self portrait of me for the malevolent zine 'this too shall pass'. im actually pretty happy with it, its so cute!
june - floorshow brad majors fanart. i was sooo gay. i am gay. im proud of it except for the face and background to be honest. i still get notes on it today and its really funny cuz its just other people being gay. happy with it
july - OLD MAN ASH WILLIAMS ?!?!?!?!?!? i remember i was watching ash vs evil dead and felt a little bit too homosexual and needed to get it out of my system. keep in mind this was still before i was insane about evil dead. i frankly think the body and the background suck ass and this drawing is BAD👎
august - laura palmer painting number 1. really quite happy with this. i like her a lot. just not so happy with the background, i think i couldve done it better. (i was trying to make it so that you could see the waiting room peeking out from cracks in the wall but that wasnt obvious and was just kind of stupid so like whateverrrr).
september - laura palmer painting number 2. i actually prefer this one, i put more work into it than the first one? it might not look as good but i was more independent with the colour picking and was doing a lot more of the reference from eye. i also think it looks prettier and i like how the hair turned out :))
october - this was a busy month for me so this is just a cringetober piece. self insert. me as an s-mart employee. UM.anyway.s. i think its cute but definitely my weakest piece on here apart from maybe the bluey art. woah wait i just realised i appear twice on this thing
november - dale cooper painting!!! im really happy with this i think it turned out really nice and pretty and that i captured how angelic he looks in that scene :)) im especially proud of the eyes.
december - ASH WILLIAMS X3?!?!?!?!?!!??!? this is pretty cute. literally judt drew it likke 2 day ago. hes cute

yo bookwalker’s having a coin boost event on yuri until 6/25/23, there’s a sale but it only applies to ‘yuri is my job’ (personally I wasn’t compelled by that one). anyway here are some of the series on the list I like:
Still Sick—office lady romance about a woman who draws yuri being found at a convention by a coworker, one of my absolute faves (3 volumes, complete)
5 seconds before a witch falls in love—collection of stories, main story is a two-shot about a witch hunter and a witch duking it out (really like this one) and there’s a oneshot about the most normal girl in existence but a demon and angel obsess over her (not personally a fan). regardless if you like the oneshot, imo the main story is SUUUUPER worth it, I love it a lot (1 volume, complete)
Failed Princesses—high school romance with the energy of a hot-blooded shounen. these gals shout passionately about their feelings. the main character is a popular girl who’d talk shit about the unpopular girl but then her boyfriend cheated on her and the unpopular girl was like ‘hey. you have to be happy. you’re not allowed to be unhappy (because I resent you for being the perfect popular girl)’ and the popular girl was like ‘oh my god… you are sooo NICE I’m obsessed you forever now’ (this is all in like the first two chapters) (6 volumes, complete)
black and white—honestly? I’m not entirely sold on the writing (I don’t think it really coheres in terms of why the relationship develops how it does) but the novelty of having office ladies violently beat the shit out of each other carries it, especially since sal jiang’s art is really good. like those gals are BRAWLING for real, it’s kind of refreshing (1 volume, incomplete)
here are series that I fell off of because I lost interest but they weren’t bad or anything:
The two of them are pretty much like this—slice of life established relationship between a voice actress in her early 20s and a novelist in her 30s (I think). it’s cute, it’s good for folks who like fluff, I fell off because it felt more meandering whereas I like stories with heated drama and momentum (3 volumes, probably ongoing?)
School zone girls—high school gag 4koma, really good for folks who like the *stupid* high school energy. This is a manga with rowdy gals who are idiots. I fell off because it’s one of those really long + big cast kinda manga, yknow, like tsurezure children or gekkan shoujo, so it’ll probably suit folks who like those types (4 volumes, ongoing)
Hello Melancholic—high school gals in a band (I think they do jazz? or it’s some kind of brass band? well the main character plays trumpet), it’s pretty cute and has a solid gloomy gal with hella anxiety + excitable gal who Will Get Her Way No Matter What dynamic, I just fell off of it because I wasn’t interested at the time (3 volumes, complete)
Otherside Picnic—college gals investigating another world/urban legends, the main character is someone who just wanted to chill in another world and the love interest is Looking For Someone Who Disappeared. it’s fun and entertaining, it’s a light novel and the main character has a lot of fun biases—when she says she’s just a normal girl who has experienced a normal life, she is absolutely lying. Good for folks who like urban legends and kind of… investigative arcs? Action and mystery vibes? I read up to volume 4 and fell off because that was all that was out (7 volumes, incomplete, vol 8 is coming out in august)
She loves to cook, she loves to eat—slice of life with working women, the main character loves to cook, the love interest loves to eat. Good for folks who like more grounded stories, the main character thinks a lot about how she’s seen as A Great Potential Wife rather than someone who just has a hobby and the love interest gets underestimated a lot (I think she works in construction??) and gets judgement from being a woman who, yknow, likes to eat. from what I read it’s a very tentative kind of romance of a couple of women finding someone comfortable to be around, I fell off because I get more grabbed by internal/interpersonal conflict rather than external/societal influences but I think it’ll grab folks who 1) like more grounded stories, 2) likes food (3 volumes, I think incomplete?)
Catch these hands!—ex-delinquent and her old classmate that’s obsessed with her. The artist did love live doujins, I think? Anyway it’s fun, would appeal to folks who like things that are lighthearted and who enjoy weird women. I don’t think I was compelled by the emotional focus but I don’t think that means it was bad (4 volumes, complete I think)
I didn’t like these but a lot of people do:
Even Though We’re Adults—messy adult relationship, one of them is married to a man and the other one is like ‘this is so fucking stupid do NOT go through with this it is SUCH a bad idea’ and she goes through with it. shimura is a pretty renowned yuri mangaka, she’s the one who did aoi hana, it’ll probably be a good read for people who like emotionally complex and pretty miserable stories. didn’t have enough humor for my tastes and I fell off pretty early (6 volumes, ongoing)
Run away with me, girl—gorgeous and unique art, it’s about two gals who were high school sweethearts and then one of them went off to be with a guy, the gals reunite as adults and they end up running away together. one of the gals is pregnant and was in an abusive relationship, which is why she’s running. again, for people who like emotionally complex stories. I wasn’t satisfied with the love interest’s development, kinda reminded me of octave, but I know other folks who would probably enjoy how the narrative approaches her (3 volumes, complete)
SHWD—buff women and sci-fi action horror. good art. I don’t think any of the character archetypes or dynamics appealed to me but if you’re desperate for buff women and like sci-fi/action/horror this will help probably (1 volume, incomplete? idk)
Roadqueen—mira’s art is gorgeous but I’m not super compelled by the writing. Good for people who want something goofy and hot-blooded, the vibes are kind of… shounen gag manga? I think? (1 volume, complete)
I’m in love with the villainess—manga adaption of a light novel, one of the most successful (and. one of the very few) villainess transmigration romances, the main character transmigrates into the protagonist and her favorite character is the villainess. one of my friends really likes it and there’s some Sincere Feelings on What It’s Like To Be A Lesbian, but I find it to comedy-focused for my tastes in the beginning. There’s also a spinoff from the villainess’ perspective. Actually I don’t remember if I linked to the manga adaption or the light novel… uh… figure it out yourself.
Bloom into you—everybody loves this one. It has good writing. I don’t like it. High school slice of life coming of age, very emotions-focused, probably like 10 volumes or something I dunno
Superwomen in love—I actually despise this one but according to my strict principles I’m including it because the concept is unique and would appeal to people probably. it’s like tokusatsu yuri with a general defecting from the evil organization and teaming up with the hero. I would’ve liked it more if it was more sincere and less gag-focused. Read it for a fun time but not a deep time until they sprinkle in pathos of heroism and love etc and then they go back to comedy. I guess. I fell off a couple volumes in I dunno it probably gets better. However I like tokusatsu and romance too much to continue.

I decided to change up the formula for this post because I am just so fuckin proud of how this turned out so a rant about my progress and work on this peice under the cut!
HAZAH! BEHOLD!
FOR I BRING ANOTHER DRAWING TODAY!
This one is called The new Starmaker!
It is based off of an AU/HC I had for a while based on the fact that the more Crowley (as an angel) began to question things during his conversation with Azi his wings turned darker and darker.
Sooo...
What if, days, hours maybe even moments before his fall...
His wings became a galaxy, an omen of hope for him that maybe he was doing the right thing questioning things before God struck him down.
But yeah! All in all, I am really proud of this one♥️, it took me half a day to finish in total because Pixel studios kept crashing on me. Fuck you Pixel Studios (I love you) and I actually did two vers of the BG on this one!
So let's look at it together!
So this is Ver. 1
Tumblr media
-Basically just a void behind him, I thought it added a nice contrast and people I showed it to seemed to like it but when I came back to look at it I dunno
-It just kinda felt bland, ya know?
-Like yes the colors do contrast nicely and the lil stars around him pop more but eeeeeh
-I dunno, I just didn't vibe with it with that bg
So I went to Ver. 2!
Tumblr media
-I liked this one a lot more than the original one because why yes, I am a sucker for color
-Oh and it gave me the chance to test out the brushes Pixel has to offer
-I really like the cross looking ones!
-Okay but back onto the art
-I just genuinely liked the vibe of this one more than the last
-(Also got to give my boi a halo so WAHOO)
-And I got to play around with a lot of details for the bg and stuff
So with that out of the way, as a closing touch I wanna just show off some of the bits I had the most fun with while doing this!
(Again, click for better quality)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So first off! I had so much fun with the bg gradients it isn't even funny. Like the lil pixels scratch my brain just right when I drew them.
Oh and the wings. They were REALLY fucking fun to draw.
Love em, need em, gonna do more of them soon ^^
But my most favourite part of this was ♥️Crowley's hair!♥️
Like I just zoned out for a good forty minutes, made the hair look like a galaxy on accident, had the program crash on me and erase all the progress and do it all over again.
But like.
In my not so humble opinion (because I have the ego the size of a blue whale, deal with it) I think it turned out TERRIFIC!
Like I just MWAH!
I love how I drew it!
===×=×==×
But yeah, that's pretty much it! Thank chu for reading my art rant and see you on the next post, baiii!

Have you seen hazbin hotel yet? Is it just me or does anyone else also see so much Tarvek in the Radio Demon/Alastor. (Also at second thought, there's a lot of Mechanicsburg/Heterodyne monsters theme/narrative and aesthetic to everything that's going on in hell, tbh.)
I just watched it yesterday, in fact! Very fun show, surprisingly…dark in a viscerally, horrifically realistic way at times, in addition to all the dark comedy? And some of those songs are catchy and/or heartfelt as, ha, hell.
Alastor does bear some similarities to Tarvek—manipulative, wants to be on top but seems to work best behind the throne, in some yet unknown way trapped by circumstance…red…
But I think this is off the mark. If the characters are similar, then we are metaphorically still in VERY early Sturmhalten arc with Alastor…and not even that. Tarvek quite quickly revealed himself to Believe In Something, which Alastor has not. In fact, almost as soon as Tarvek was introduced, we saw the very genuine care he gave to Tinka, something we’ve seen no real equivalent with in Alastor—he had fun destroying the people chasing Mimzy, I guess? When people are completely under Tarvek’s power, he tries to keep them safe; when people are completely under Alastor’s, he uses and threatens them.
Alastor is SO MUCH more sketch, basically, and if he’s on a path to redemption—which I’m genuinely not 100% sure of—it’s going to be long and he’s going to do some very terrible things to our more righteous heroes first. I’m like 90% sure he’s only helping them in the first place because he’s being forced by soul-contract. He’s grown slightly fond of the rest of the hotel staff & denizens over the course of the season, but he hasn’t made any real personal connection with any of them. He’s a villain; he just hasn’t had the chance to act like it yet.
There is SO MUCH Mechanicsburg & monsters aesthetic to Hell, though, you’re right! And Heaven, to a lesser extent—I love how this art crew is always like, “why draw a normal humanoid when we can draw a Creature?” They’re so right. Everyone’s body proportions and the way they move are so fucked up that I literally kept thinking, “Thank goodness I’m accustomed to Phil Foglio Art or this would be unbearable.” And Hell is also sooo Mechanicsburg in the idea, which I hope they’ll develop more, of “it’s okay to be ‘impure’ actually; what if we’re all just people anyway?” No one even knows what exactly makes a person go to Heaven vs Hell! They have guesses and assumptions but they don’t know!!! The premise of Charlie’s rehabilitation hotel is WRONG, because the problem isn’t (entirely) the sinners of Hell, it’s their trashfire social system encouraged by the fact that angels come down for yearly killing sprees!

✨ people I wanna know better! ✨
tagged by the lovely lovely @prismatic-witch 💖 thank you!
Last Song? Troye Sivan One of Your Girls! I've been listening to it on repeat since it came out I love it
Favourite colour? soft baby pink or sunshine yellow 🥰🩷💛
Currently watching? mostly just Only Friends on Saturdays! also the new season of Sex Education but very slowly (I'm bad at binge-watching). Bee and I just finished the documentary series we were watching (BBC Earth), but Planet Earth III starts on Sunday so we will soon have a new nature documentary to lose our minds about 💪
Last movie? lmao on Saturday I watched High School Musical for the 10000th time with my mum and sister and Bee. it's my ultimate comfort movie, 1000/10, will watch several hundred more times.
Sweet/spicy/savoury? sweet!!
Relationship status? in a very 100% legitimate polycule with @aikinn, @divorcedmalewife, @kimchaybrainrot, and @thewholedamnboulangerie... if only there were no oceans separating us.... fjkdjkjgjfd no I've been engaged to and living with Bee tumblr user aikinn for 5 years, but alas weddings are expensive 🫠 we'll have been together for 7 years next month! she's an angel and the loml and an all round good egg. and also very pretty. 🩷🤍🧡
Current obsessions? at the beginning of September, having previously never drawn anything more complicated than a stick-man, I decided I was going to teach myself to draw. as you do. and now it's been 6 weeks and I'm obsessed and it's taken over my life and replaced all of my other hobbies 🫣 sorry anyone who was waiting for fic updates.... I've been obsessively drawing pictures of Big.
Last thing you googled? lol it was Planet Earth III cause I couldn't remember whether it started on Saturday or Sunday 🫣 before that apparently it was emoji kitchen. I wanted to make fun lil guys 🥺
Selfie?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
these are both a few months old cause I sooo rarely take selfies lol 🫣 but here is a very rare occasion of me wearing makeup (for a Mika concert) and also on holiday channeling Ram in My Engineer the Series episode 10 [part 3/4]… 🥺🌸
Friends I wanna get to know better: omg okay I'm gonna try and tag some lovely mutuals I don't already know super well - but no pressure if you don't want to (and bonus no pressure to do the selfie part if you don't wanna put your face on tumblr) @yeetlegay, @lady-guts, @rainbowcolored7, @cytharat, @wildelydawn, @bisexualbard 💖💖
