#apologies for how long it took to answer this ask

Instinct
After putting off feeding to help find the Hyde, your instincts take over as the hunger slowly consumes your mind. But Wednesday is there at just the right moment
Warnings: swearing, blood, injury (the usual)
(apologies for any and all typos)
How long had it been since you last fed? Two weeks? Three? Perhaps a whole month! It seemed that every single time you were reaching for a blood bag, Wednesday would just appear at your side, informing you about a new clue or idea or daft theory.
And every time, you would let her drag you to somewhere new. Whether it were to the woods, or a secret hide out or anywhere else even slightly dangerous.
Now, here you were. Taking step after agonising step as you walk through Jericho. The edges of your eyes tinted red and your fangs aching painfully, begging to be used. Your entire body howled for blood and, every now and then, a growl would crawl up your throat as a person got too close, scaring them away as their heart dared you to bite down. Every time, Wednesday would send you a look, a mix of frustration and curiosity at the sound.
It had been a while since you could properly focus on anything, the usually loud street replaced by a low ringing in your ears as Wednesday took you to the woods. The both of you remained silent, a moment you would assume Wednesday enjoyed, but the cold glances she threw your way said otherwise
“You haven’t muttered an incoherent sentence in more than 2 hours.”
The Raven hair muttered as she examined the burnt down barn you suddenly found yourself in. You shook yourself out of your thoughts, attempting to focus on something other than the sound of her beating heart and the temptation of being within a few metres of her
“Sorry”
You stutters out, sounding almost like a drowned man gasping for air. Wednesday turned swiftly around, glaring at you from across the ruined building.
“Is there a problem with you?”
You couldn’t answer, your dry throat closing with hunger. You managed to shake your head, attempting a smile to hide your pain. You grimaced at the action, if even you knew it was bad then Wednesday certainly knew you were lying as well
“Mon Cher, you do understand I can always see through your pathetic lies. Even during your more vocal attempts.”
She turned away from you, hearing your exasperated sigh and picturing the way your shoulders would fall at the sound.
She could feel the way her heart twisted inside her cold chest as she slowly pieces together the pieces. She glanced a few times in your direction as she continued her search, watching as you stare into space. Iris’s flashing red every so often as you attempted to control you hunger
You could hear the slams of Wednesdays hands on parts of the ruin, the rustling of a plastic bag and her frustrated shouts at you and Thing. But all you could truly focus on, was the steady beat of her heart and try not to lurch forward and sink your fangs into her flesh.
So when it drops, your head snaps in her direction.
“Fuck”
You shout and use your speed to catch the girl before she hits the woodland floor. You lowered yourself to the ground, holding the raven hair as she seized up, body jerking as she witnessed this new vision.
You dug your fangs into your bottom lip, watching as Thing attempted to distract you from how close you were to your girlfriend. Her blood running beneath you fingers. He taps and dances and watches you carefully when the first few raindrops begin to fall.
“Should I leave Thing?”
You ask the hand, pulling your girlfriend slightly closer as you fail to shield her from the rain. The hand taps a reply, always appearing reassuring.
“But I’m a danger right now.”
“And she would help you if you told her.”
He signs. For a body less limb, he was very clever. You sigh, growing accustomed to the increasingly violent storm.
“Anyway, she would probably enjoy the pain.”
He jokes. You chuckle, though the sound you make sounds a little more like a snarl. Thing comes beside you, taking you hand in his. You smile, licking at the blood you had drawn from your lip.
“Thank you.”
His thumb rubs the back of your hand in response, squeezing it firmly but comfortingly. You looked up, focusing on the drops falling against your forehead instead of the Wednesdays Warmth in your arms. Listening to the sound of the wind tearing through the leaves than her beating heart. Which was slowly growing steadier.
Within minutes she shot up, gasping for air, as if she was the one starving. You reach up to place a hand on her shoulder, but hesitate and leave it in your lap instead.
“Are you alright?”
You manage to growl, watching as Wednesdays face shifts from momentary bewilderment to concern reserved only for you.
“Y/n”
She mutters, her hand going to your face before you can protest. In the time she was “out”, your skin had grown far paler, your entire eye had been consumed by a ruby red and black veins trailed trailed up every inch of your exposed flesh. Wednesdays eyes widen, the sight of your exterior giving providing her with the correct conclusion.
“You need to feed”
You snarl, the sound making Wednesday dart to her feet, instinctively backing away from you. Your hungry eyes meet hers, fangs bared as you begin to approach.
“I can get you some blood, there is no need to attack anyone.”
She states, refusing to back away out of stubbornness as you grow closer. You snarl again, allowing you to reach her, standing steady and firm as your hands grasp her shoulders.
“I need- I need a blood bag”
You manage to gasp out, you morality and predatory consciences tearing you in two directions. Wednesday can see the conflict in your eyes, she sees how they plead, burn with rage then soften again. In an endless cycle. Like a broken record
“Bite me”
She says. No. Demands. The two words spoken with such power, that even if you had the strength to, you wouldn’t argue.
You watch as she unbuttons her shirt, pulling the fabric down from her collar to expose her mouth watering flesh. Neither of you have time to think before your left hand grasps the back of her head, tilting it roughly to the side. Your fangs dig into her throat in an instant, wasting no time at all. You can hear her groan as you do so, her head sinking back into your hands secure grip.
You drink deeply, like a half parched drunkard, feeling the weakness vanishes out of your body as the sweet, warm blood flows into our waiting mouth. You haven’t realised, but you’ve pushed the girl up to a tree behind you, pinning her against the trunk. Your other hand leaves her shoulder, nails clawing at the bark as you attempt to steady yourself, trying not to lose control and drain the raven hair completely.
You pull away after a couple of minutes (perhaps a few seconds too long) pressing your head against the raven hairs chest as you calm your instincts. Wednesdays arms wrap around you, pulling you into a rare hug. You press yourself against her, mumbling apologies into the crook of her neck. Feeling your magic hum in her skin as it ties itself together, healing the wound.
“Thank you for trusting me.”
You hum, pulling away to look at her. Your eyes are back to their normal, glowing colour and your face looks as human as possible for a vampire. The sight pulls at the Raven hairs lips, creating the closest she may ever get to a smile.
“Come, now that is concluded, we must go find this monster.”
You step away from her, smiling a little as she stumbles, regains her composure and strides through the woods as if she hadn’t just had a shit load of her blood taken from her. Your about to laugh at the sight before a loud roar echoes through the darkening area. Wednesday turns to you, excitement twinkling in her eyes. You both sprint into the trees, a thrilling mix of fear and joy driving the both of you.
No wonder you made such a good couple

3.128 Fired
We arrived at home late that night loaded down with more gifts than the nursery could hold. If we received one more thing, we'd have to start a warehouse in the empty bedroom. We got so much stuff, we could probably support six more babies, heh. Baby girl could use a different towel every day of the week for the rest of her childhood. We had enough shampoo and lotion to last the rest of her life, it seemed like. If one day she entered a nobody loves me phase, I'll be sure to remind her of this scene.
Sophia had never been a busybody and always took a more relaxed approach to life, but I was glad to see her following the doctor's orders. She spent a lot of time on our balcony, rocking in the chair early morning, thinking about whatever expecting mothers think about. Sometimes I'd catch her reading on the couch. Seeing her take the warning seriously made me feel good about leaving her alone for a few hours to visit Maira. I thought about it in the shower, and visiting her before the baby was born was the move. Who knew when I'd be able to spend quality time with her after that.
Like I always, I began our conversation with an apology, but she didn't fault me, of course. She said it wouldn't have been right for me to neglect all my guests to hang with her all afternoon. That was true, but I still didn't like that she was alone all day. She assured me that she was okay, so I asked about her brother.
"He died in a fire," she said.
"Oh, gosh! I'm so sorry, Maira."
I never liked him, but he didn't deserve to die like that.
"Knowing he's not here anymore is its own challenge, but what makes it worse is when I think about the fire, I often think about us."
I swallowed a few times because I knew exactly where she was going, and it made me nervous.
"I think about how you held me when you realized I was okay and what we both felt."
I couldn't move or even blink and sat there, holding my breath, hoping she wasn't about to pull a Yasmine on me. Finding good friends had been a long journey, and I felt like I had a nice inner circle now. I didn't want to lose Maira because of her feelings for me. I also didn't need her digging things back up because I had worked hard to let that go.
"Sometimes I think about that moment and I wish I would have given in," she continued. "We could have tried to see if we would work. I imagine myself married to you and pregnant with your baby. My parents would finally be proud of me."
I wanted to stop her from talking so she wouldn't say something that would ruin our friendship, but I was frozen. This was a mistake. I wanted to be a better friend, but we couldn't be alone together anymore.
"All of that is nice to think about," she continued, "but I would be miserable. And you would get fed up with me. We wouldn't be friends anymore. Life turned out exactly how it was supposed to, and I wouldn't change a thing. I like how we are, and I like my life. It's just lonely sometimes, and I wonder if I'm missing out on something."
I exhaled the breath I held and blinked, finally. I could keep my friend. As uncomfortable as that was to hear, I loved that we were able to be that honest with each other. That's true friendship right there.
"Everyone has their own opinions about what you should be doing with your life, so I don't think there's a right or wrong answer for that," I said. "I think as long as you're happy with your life, no one else's opinion matters."
"Yeah. You're right. That's what I say to myself. But you know how it is."
"Yeah. It's a battlefield up there."
"Seriously."
"So...there's no one you're interested in right now?" I asked, trying to pivot the conversation...and maybe be a tiny bit nosy.
"No, and it's all your fault. You ruined me!"
"Me? How??"
"You set the bar way too high! No one else can measure up!"
"Oh please. I'm sure there's plenty of guys out there who are way better catches than me."
"I assure you, there aren't."
"I don't believe that for a second. Ooh, I should set you up with my friend Justin."
"That guy who comes to all your parties? He's kinda cute. What's up with him?"
"He's a landscaper and lives in San Myshuno. He comes from a big family just like you and is a good man...a bit older than us, but at least he won't bother you about children."
"Oh-my-Watcher you're trying to set me up with an OLD man??"
"He's not that old...I think."
"You are officially fired from matchmaking, thank you!"
I missed our banter. It felt good to laugh with her again. Hopefully, she would let someone into her life soon. She didn't need a man, but it was obvious she wanted some kind of companionship, and I was not the man for the job. Besides, she deserved to be loved and cherished, and I wanted to see her happy for once.
"The baby will be here in a couple of days, huh?" she asked.
"Sure will. I can't wait to meet her."
"So, is this the first of many, or..."
I sighed, realizing this would be the first time I admitted this out loud.
"She might be it for us. At least if we want more, we'll have to adopt."
"Whaaat?"
"Yeah. We went through a lot to get her. Sophia says she doesn't want to do it again."
"Are you cool with adoption?"
"Oh yeah, totally. You know Sophia's adopted, right?"
"Really? I don't think I knew that. It's funny...I've known her almost my whole life, but I've never really known her until now."
Was it bad that I often forgot she and Rashidah were sisters? They rarely spoke of each other, and Sophia and Rashidah seemed closer than the sisters.
"Yeah, she is," I said. "And she's got quite a story. But yeah... We're both open to it, but actually doing it is another story."
"Well, whatever happens, I'm glad you two are finally getting your family. I can't wait to meet your kid!"
"Oh yeah? I thought you didn't like children."
"I never said that! I don't want my own children; I love the auntie life! I think my first order of business will be teaching her forbidden words!"
"Oh Watcher. Here we go."

Hello -
As a person with DID who has successfully fused alters/parts, do you have any information, resources, or advice for systems hoping to do the same?
My system is hoping to reach a point where we can act and function as one, but it’s been horrible trying to find resources on fusion. Nearly every article about fusion we could find places this second to functional multiplicity and seems to confuse fusion and integration. Or worse, claims that fusion is a way to kill alters!
Our therapist has been immensely helpful, but we find ourselves wanting to read more about this process or hear from others who have successfully managed a fusion. Any help would be greatly appreciated - thank you!
Hi, anon. I'm so sorry that you've been struggling to find resources on your desired recovery. I went through that struggle too, it's hard. I'm glad you have a therapist to help you out through all of this.
If you want, I've talked about my own experience with final fusion on this blog and I'm always open to talking about it more if there's anything in particular you want to hear about!
Definitely seek out other systems who have experience with partial/full fusion, too. Off the top of my head, there's @system-of-a-feather, @reimeichan, @hiiragi7, and @smokee78 (hope it's okay to tag you guys!). They haven't been active recently, but back when I was working towards final fusion, @puppydeathfarts made posts that I found really helpful. If there's anyone else who has experience with partial/full fusion, though, please leave a comment!
I also recommend checking out Rachel Downing's experience with final fusion/full integration and Jess's from Multiplicity & Me:
youtube
Their experiences helped me feel less alone when I was pursuing final fusion. There was also another person, but unfortunately they left the community due to harassment and deleted their posts. I will forever for grateful to all of them for being brave enough to share this vulnerable and personal part of their lives, they've certainly given me the strength to share my own.
As for articles, unfortunately I don't know of too many that don't stigmatize final fusion. DID-research offers a good summary of final fusion and a few interesting links to check out here.
You can find a bunch of free downloads for self-help books here. Out of all of them, I feel like Coping with Trauma-related Dissociation is a great self-help book for people who are a being supported by a therapist and interested in pursuing harmony and stronger integration within their dissociative system. I don't think it would've been possible for me to achieve final fusion or even functional multiplicity without the techniques I learned from this book. I cannot emphasize how useful it is!
Some extra things from me:
You have to work with your parts, first. You can't skip ahead to fusion. Aim to pave for understanding, acceptance, and harmony within your system. Fusion, if you want it, is the natural progression to that!
There are ways to test out fusion. Talk to your therapist about "blending" (it's also described in the coping book, but definitely mention it to your therapist). You can test out what it's like to be fused as many times as you want.
Fusion can feel weird at first. It shouldn't feel bad, but it can be strange. It took me time to get used to it. It can also feel differently depending on what stage of recovery you're in... ->
When I still had amnesia and less co-operation in my system, fusions slid under the radar and surprised the hell out of me! As I continued lowering those dissociative barriers, developing better communication and co-consciousness as a system, things become way clearer.
After you become fully fused for the first time, it's completely okay if you fall apart a few times before it really sticks! Final fusion is a process, not a destination.
You're allowed to choose whatever labels you want after final fusion. Call yourself a system or plural or say you've become a singlet or whatever you want. It's also okay to go unlabeled!
Your parts aren't gone after final fusion, but that separation is gone and it's okay if you need to mourn that. Sometimes I miss what it was like being fragmented. It's not because I want to be fragmented again, but because that was how I lived my entire life up until now, it was what was most natural to me, and it had its good and bad sides. I'm thankful for it because it was that separation which allowed me to survive! I view this similarly to how it was like to move recently. Sometimes I miss my old home, but that doesn't mean I want to go back or that I'm not happier where I am now. Things can be complicated like that!
After final fusion, you continue to learn new things about yourself and your system. It's a new journey in of itself -- a very, very wonderful one. 💚
I hope you find something helpful here. Either way, know that you are not alone on this journey. I support you whole-heartedly. Good luck with everything!

(putting on reporter hat/j) You mostly post the art you do with pencil but what other mediums do you enjoy using? Were you always drawn to pencils? Also obligatory compliment for your art, i love looking at all these lines ❤️
*ahem*
Thank you so much!! I love seeing your dexdark art on my dash as well! 💖
I honestly think my Thing with making pencil drawings started in high school, when I would bring my sketchbook to school and draw when I got the chance. Then later, I would post whatever fanarts I made to tumblr, or deviantart if we're going back that far. (I still think about DA and get nostalgic, but it's impossible to get a following on there so it's not meant to be :'( ) And people would give my gravity falls, steven universe, etc drawings positive attention, and that gave me motivation to make more.
So that's how the whole "making pencil drawings in my sketchbook, and putting in effort to make them pretty" thing started, but for a long time there, I was still making digital art pretty frequently. I think pencil drawing took over as my dominant medium when I started taking commissions. Because I used to offer digital comms as well as pencil drawing comms, but the traditional stuff was way cheaper, so it's what I did the most. And over time, my standards for my pencil stuff got higher and higher, and now it's like my Thing.
But I think part of the reason it stuck so much is just the convenience? I can take my sketchbook anywhere and draw if I'm out and about.
That being said, I think I should delve into digital stuff again, just because it would be a good change of pace! Digital illustration wise, I use photoshop. I used to do portrait bust thingies (I called them digital paintings). I haven't done that in a long time, and I might enjoy that more than I'd expect. Also, ever since I animated in toon boom, I've been so enamored with using vectors to make lineart. When I made digital lineart in the past, it could be so frustrating at times, how you'd have to redraw the same delicate curve over and over until it looked the way you want. So if I do something digital with lines in the future, I think I'll give the pen tool in photoshop a try.
#I've tried watercoloring and using colored pencils on a few occasions this past year#and every time I was disappointed by how long it took :(#thank you for the question!! I apologize for rambling so much aaaaaaahhhh#ask#answered#daydream-corpse

Hello there!
I have to ask cause it's everywhere and apparently my husband and I didn't see it!
Aziraphale & Crowley were obvious to us as a couple but we didn't see this with Loki & Mobius (please people don't be mad 🙃). I saw a great love and a bond that will last forever but not the way we witnessed in Good Omens. To me it was more of a family thing. Like Mobius has two sons. Could be the representation of Thor and Loki. I don't know. I was so surprised when I saw all this on Tumblr. I want to rewatch the show now to see if I really missed all the signs.
Hi there! 😊 Thank you for the ask and please don't worry for wondering, part of the joy in a watching experience is being able to see something in a completely new light. I hope you've come to the right place as Lokius and Aziraphale/Crowley are the only romantic pairings that have stood out to me in ages but now for fairly different reasons so I'll do my best to explain why in my own personal view Lokius is a slow burn for the ages above and beyond all other love stories to me and I'd absolutely recommend rewatching Loki, especially season 2, with the mindset that the tropes of every good romance are present in *every* interaction Loki and Mobius have.
(adding a read more here as I feel this is about to get almost horrifically long if you'd like to know even some of the signs lol)
Right from the start we see Mobius recounting being a fan of Loki's most mischievous acts on the timeline, pushing the question of just why he's focused on ruling and nothing else, really getting under his skin in a way no one ever has before?? And in that there's something even better and deeper than love at first sight; intrigue. Loki's furious at being held by the TVA but can't help being drawn back to what an enigma Mobius is to brush off his insults and offer salvation in the face of knowing every good or bad thing Loki's ever done and believing in him anyway.
Cue the tentative partnership and rapport they both get far too comfortable in which you see when Mobius indulges in letting Loki ruin the mission at the renaissance fair and later tries to backtrack in reassuring Ravonna he's got things under control, then again when Loki realizes Mobius has been reading him too well and defaults to leaning in to "fix" his perfectly tied tie, a callback to when Mobius pointed out Loki has a tendency to try and seduce people in more powerful positions who could help him. You actually see Mobius lean in for a moment before realizing himself and pulling back, but contrary to everyone else Loki's tried this with he doesn't give in or get angry, he laughs and once again points out what Loki's up to, trying to find a way to get to the Timekeepers.
That entire sequence is the tipping point for me when they officially enter romantic territory, as Loki's visibly thrown and surprised by the way Mobius reacts and scrambles after him, finally taking things seriously enough to do real work and is rewarded not only with trust he's never been given so freely before but a now mutual fascination you see during their conversation in the cafeteria (a highlight of the series for me ) when Loki can't help but try and learn more about the person who knows him so well already by asking genuinely about Mobius and his jet ski magazine. Blew me away because any previous version of Loki would've never taken the time or interest in something so ridiculous (in his eyes), but this Loki shyly takes in the way Mobius beams and opens up, because how could you not fall a little when such a simple pleasure makes someone happy?
Then when they research Roxxcart they flirt again, Mobius praising Loki and teasing he might take his job before what we refer to as the Roxxcart grocery store divorce and for good reason 😂 When Loki's captured back to the TVA, Mobius isn't just hurt, he's clearly jealous and *extremely* so because he thought *they* had been building something only to now think Loki played him all along and during Loki's next interrogation Mobius loses his temper in a way he never has before, making scathing comments about Loki stabbing him in the back and siding with his "girlfriend" which should kind of speak for itself there 😅 Then their mutual assurance of trust before Mobius is pruned and the hug in the void being initiated by Loki is huge as well when this is the first time he's shared EVER that with someone and you see the crushing despair when Mobius later no longer remembers.
Getting into s2, it's easier for me to sum up with the base of their s1 relationship laid out since there's no need to get into as much detail when the entire thing is pure romance start to finish.
Loki and Mobius frantically desperate to find each other when in reality they had been separated for maybe an hour? Mobius ignoring all other issues at hand and his superiors to gently hold Loki by the waist and pull him close, constantly grounding by touching his back, arms, anywhere to provide extra comfort and Loki giving him that control, Mobius spending the entire season actively trying to enjoy being on the field without limits for a change and organizing dates between the two of them all season when his focus used to primarily be on the work. He repeatedly asks Loki to go for a drink, suggests visiting the theatre, going on a hot air balloon ride, etc, while Loki stops to indulge in popcorn and pies just because small joys are important to Mobius. When Loki visits Mobius' original timeline self they spend the ENTIRE ep flirting with each other, and honestly Don having two kids is just as it seems since there were no official indications otherwise; he may share genes with Mobius but is a different person with a different life. Don can't stop bringing up how single he is, teases Loki about following him home, which Loki absolutely did but only after fixing his hair and coat to try and look as good as possible before seeing him (because again, he looks like Mobius) and getting so flustered stammering over his words he may as well have been in a 90s Hugh Grant rom com 😂😂
Don't even get me started on the finale, which has every character except Loki and Mobius basically living their ideal life while the two of them are clearly left unfulfilled and wanting, missing each other to the point Mobius leaves the TVA (which exists out of time) for a timeline that Loki can see as a tear rolls down Loki's face in the final scene because of it.
Do I think that had their characters been tied to anyone but the Disney/Marvel corporations they, like Aziraphale and Crowley, would've shared a kiss as well? Absolutely yes, but that isn't a necessity for me personally and in all honesty despite Aziraphale and Crowley having kissed I actually felt season 2 of Good Omens was a massive backtrack for their relationship compared to the quality of time they spent together in season 1 which I much preferred. Again, that's personal preference and everyone sees and interprets elements of romance differently which is completely fine and I hope this wild ramble at least gave some perspective on how I and many others view Lokius 😂💖 Happy watching, no matter how you end up viewing them, and thank you again for the ask!
#apologies for the delay in reply but it took me a good long while to kind of put into words how personal this ask was for me??#especially when taking good omens in mind#everything about the understanding and challenge and love and growth and devotion i showed up for and wanted in aziraphale/crowley#all of it and more is what i found in lokius and they've been the most wonderfully unexpected surprise of my life tbh#(i'm sorry this answer became so long but also not because i could've easily gone on three times as long lol)#hope this helped a bit and that you have a wonderful week 💖#ask#loki spoilers#only tagging because i've got pretty much the whole plot in there lmao

Every time I’m under the weather I always suddenly think ‘I wonder how this person is doing’. Your art is such a delight to see and I can never get enough of it, it’s as good as those buffets that cost my left kidney to eat in.
Here’s an actual question: Do you have a oc/character/design you’d favor to be drawn the most out of anything else? If so, which one?
ANON THIS IS SO SWEET, THANK YOU FOR THE KIND WORDS... you have now activated my trap card (asking about my ocs)
I don't share much about them outside of a few discords but here are a few I can think of first! From left to right there's: Draven Vesper - (He/They), Jay - (She/They), and Bruce - (He/They).
I have tons more, with full cast of monster inspired & themed characters that were initially designed for either a comic and or potential game which has since been forever cast to the w.i.p pit. (might revisit it one day who knows)
BUT! To answer your question it would have to be Jay!
Here's Her Artfight Page ref!
Short Description of Jay: A small bluejay aarakocra and life domain cleric! She worships a lunar goddess. They're kind soul with a interest in games, especially anything involving flying! They've journeyed through the material plane in search of a way back home. With friends met, a blood pact made, and secrets unraveled; she's finding her way through an unfamiliar world.
#skizabaa scribbles#asks#APOLOGIES FOR HOW LONG THIS TOOK TO ANSWER... ive been thinking about how to answer it for so long... tysm for the kind words#I go crazy anytime anyone asks about my oc's#Kap and Tash are also two of my most beloved oc's... With Kap also on my artfight#ALSO I WILL SOB IF YOU DRAW ANY OF THESE CHARACTERS...#shard dnd#jay dnd#draven dnd#bruce dnd#Theres at least one oc for almost every class of d&d too. Along with a few misc. ones that were made with friends#I've played dnd for like years... but will still scrap. rewrite and ignore so much of the official books <3 we homebrew in this house

Hey there!
Just wanted to say that I love your artwork so much, especially your Borderlands art! That new art of Kat got me like 🥵💦💦. I adore your style, and was wondering do you take commissions? Cause I'd love for you to draw my BL OCs~. If not that's okay!
Anyway, thanks for reading and I hope you have a wonderful day/evening~. 🧡💚🤍
AHHHH first of all, thank you so much for this ask and the kind words! Unfortunately I do not take commission. Honestly I don’t yet feel confident enough in my abilities to charge people money for my drawings…
But erm ways to get some art from me will definitely come in the future!

Hi! Would you like to explain how my portrayal of vsynths contrasts with Heron? I personally can’t figure out what makes it so interesting, since when I make Heron interact with other vsynths I rarely have a good idea of how they’ll work in mind, and just wing it.
hihi! i'd been meaning to get to this, so sure thing! for now i'll only focus on a few main ones that came to mind (i don't have a lot of brainpower atm 😔✌️) but i hope this is alright
mild disclaimer that some of this is based off information in older posts so i am aware that those prior details contained in them may no longer be canon. also again this just how i thought of/interpreted certain things, i'm obv not the og creator (you) so ultimately feel free to take this w/ a grain of salt since this might've not been the og intention.
also this is all under this cut here b/c it ended up being rly fckin long, sorry in advance if my explanations aren't very good 😭
so lets start w/ fukase; some of his character traits in your portrayal of him do seem to line up with some popular interpretations of him: silly guy/wisecracker who makes a lot of jokes, sometimes at the expense of others. also a he's a bit overdramatic ahdksjg. despite his sorta skewed goals, though, and behind that sassy attitude, he does really seem to care about people important to him. they're both very expressive characters (well in general everyone is depicted as very expressive in your art but thats an aside) but i think the way that is conveyed makes for an interesting contrast. fukase seems to show a lot more of his personality through his speech, while heron's personality is shown more through some of his actions. that's not to say heron is completely silent, but he does seem to save his words for more important occasions (or if he just really really feels like speaking his mind); whether that's because he's still a bit shy and/or just a quiet person in general, i'm not sure, but a lot more things with him seem to be conveyed through thoughts or external third-person commentary rather than him outright saying it. its definitely the opposite of fukase, who seems way more chatty and social. visually too there's a pretty neat contrast between them: aside from the height difference that sets them apart, both have limited color palettes that combine some neutral colors (fukase's off-white, black, and brown, heron's greys, muted teal, and tans) with a brighter color to pop out (fukase's bright red, heron's aqua seen on his collar + headphones).
flower and heron's relationship has previously been described as somewhat sibling-like, and it does definitely come off that way: there might be disagreements and rivalry but there's some calm nice/silly moments and genuine care & concern. they share a lot of similarities, but one could note how their relationship parallels that of heron & makarov's - flower occasionally takes on the more cheery and bubbly role in comparison to heron sometimes being the more serious and quiet one, which is seen reversed with the brothers. in spite of quarreling over small, petty little things sometimes, heron and flower seem to make up much easier and not hold any long-lasting resentment towards each other. i ofc know the heron & makarov situation is more complicated and it would make sense for it to be more strained given all that's happened, even in spite of heron forgiving his brother. but i do also wonder if it's been difficult for flower to try and calm heron down on certain occasions, seeing how he's also prone to spirals of his own thoughts that are hard to pull him out of, in a way very similar to his own brother. something sorta ironic there maybe
piko's interesting, pretty much the wild card here. his characterization does seem to vary quite a bit: he can be very playful and cutesy but also kind of a downer, as well as an angry little guy and a bit more ominous/spooky at times. there was a noteworthy point mentioned in this post though regarding how piko sees heron: heron reminds him of his younger self and wants to spare him of the pain that comes with getting your naive dreams of fame and popularity crushed. they're both very similar to each other, from the moodiness to being drawn—sometimes together—in a lot of pieces w/ similar subject matter (both have a fair share of lighthearted doodles as well as darker ones, more so in specific comparison with other characters), and taking the previously mentioned piko thoughts on heron, makes things a little bit sadder... maybe piko's current passive-aggressive and somewhat angry attitude is a mask he's developed over the years to protect himself from getting hurt more, though you can get to his nicer side if he trusts you enough. heron sometimes seems like a slight, cruel opposite of this: being nice and trusting others a bit too easily, but then breaking down emotionally in realizing his choices and impulsive actions, which might scare some people away. i want them to be happy kajhskj but i do wonder if, in spite of how much heron might look up to him, piko really feels the same way. i'm sure he does care about him, but... feelings is complicated. also i wasn't gonna touch on too much of this since i'm aware its not canon, but there's also the whole tall piko thing and how that version of piko specifically interacts with heron. that relationship in particular seems to represent an idealization: some sort of true happiness that'll come once there's an acceptance of the self, and a real willingness to accept help and be vulnerable to allow oneself to be healed... but again that's not canon and might not ever happen so, rip
and of course... there's len. i touched upon this in that original headcanon post but i did still wanna bring it up a little here. something i thought was interesting in looking back at a lot of your art was that most times, len is depicted in group settings; he's rarely seen alone and almost always interacting with someone else in some way. and generally he seems quite concerned, even more so in his interactions w/ heron. aside from the obvious fear of getting mauled to death probably lmao, he also seems to genuinely care about heron and worries about him. i think its worth noting that len is the first person heron sees after "waking up" here, and how he's the only one actually putting a hand on heron there in second-to-last panel. but again, even if len does have good intentions it is clear heron doesn't seem to be on the best terms with him. this piece has always been particularly intriguing to me, pairing what we see happening with the title. makes me think heron's blaming len for what happened to him, that it's len's fault somehow he ended up like this. a big thing also that's part of the len getting mauled thing is... len getting dismembered and eaten. i'm not gonna say too too much b/c i'm sure nobody wants to hear my cannibalism rambling but symbolically... "you are what you eat" yk? as mentioned with piko, heron seems to look up to a lot of the well-known vsynths and wants to achieve a status like them. and ofc len's arguably one of the most popular vocaloids with lot of fame and recognition. heron's design itself is said to take some inspo from len's outfit, and in general (like i mentioned in the original hc post), just wanting to be so much like someone, wanting what they have but not getting it, that might understandably drive someone to rage, and the mauling/dismembering/eating is the violent culmination of those feelings of envy. one last bonus point in terms of visuals too: yellow is the complimentary color to blue (ok ik heron's blues lean more towards blue-grey or aqua but shhhh), the literal opposite of it on the color wheel.
overall i feel heron honestly fits right in with the memesquad; everyone's personalities sort of compliment and mesh well with each other, which creates a fun dynamic that's really sweet to see. i think its really cool how you managed to make him fit in so well and how a lot of his interactions with the others make a lot of sense and are interesting to see, in happy moments as well as more serious/sad ones. sometimes i do really forget he's not a vsynth [yet?] so its surreal. ur doing a really good job tho, keep heronposting we love to see it
#ask#sorry this took so long to answer shkjghskjg 😭😭 a lot has been going on lately#i realize now this is more character relationships/comparisons and stuff rather than contrasts necessarily... oops.#i apologize in general if this makes like no fuckin sense 😭😭😭 my lit analysis shit always sounds better in my head than irl#there's more i could've put here but i was already struggling on how to phrase certain things properly so we'll leave it here for now#tho tbh: fucking around and not really knowing what youre doing will honestly lead you to some of the greatest shit youve made#<- thats a really weird fucking art/writing tip that ive learned over the years and it still fucks me up everytime but fr sometimes.#some of the best shit ppl have come up w/ was born purely out of messing around and improvising so. winging it is a solid development tip

so. bc its halloween season. what does everyone go as. i think that would be silly to know
GOOD QUESTION this took me so much thought.... so sorry for the long delay. im forcing them all to celebrate halloween <3 also open to suggestions
gio stumps me the most idk what he could be.. vampire is always a classic. something elegant and classy... what if we put cat ears on him (i am shot to death)
maxie and archie are so devil and angel to me. im convinced though BECAUSE BECAUSE maxie reminds me of a lizard and there is a desert lizard called the thorny devil.. and archie is a fish and theres little weird sea slugs called sea angels.. they could either dress as those animals or normal angel devil with those funny motifs <3 i think it would be cute and inchresting
cyrus would be a ghost with a sheet over his head idea courtesy of my good friend cy arcyrus... illustration provided
ghetsis should be something over the top and dramatic like a lich or warlock... more excuses to wear big flowy robes and laugh evilly at people and cast evil shadow skull curses on them
lysandre already has glowing bones so he can be a wraith or some ghastly thing wandering the halls mournfully... a phantom of the opera kind of thing would also suit him well LOL
#asks#apologies for how long it took to get to this ask i took so long plaguing over it and then i forgor abt it. sorry#at least i answered it before halloween </3

🌼🌹 and ‼️ for the s/i friends ask!! any source that hasn't been done yet
ELIIIII MY DEAR FRIEND, IM SORRY FOR TAKING SO LONG TO ANSWER! Hmmm...The source I have decided on is Final Fantasy 15!
🌼 - What does your S/I like about mine?
Many things! Panchi likes their poetry and writing! Oh and they really respect how strong Hawthorn is! As well as their healing abilities! Panchi is very thankful to have Hawthorn on the team!
🌹 - Your S/I and mine are double-dating with our F/Os! How do you think that would go?
Methinks it wouldn't be too different from just the usual hanging out during the road trip-afjsbfnsbdn all of them are already used to hanging out together so a double-date would be nice and fun!! <3
‼ - Share anything else you think about our S/Is together !
If Hawthorn ever lets Panchi read some of their poems and writing, there my be a few occasions of Panchi getting inspired and drawing something based off of that poem!
#pan got an ask#eli tag🍓#s/i: FFXV#thank you for the ask!!! my apologies once again for how long I took to answer ;v;

What is an alternative life path your OC might have gone down? How different would their life be if they'd made those decisions?
Most paths that didn't result in her becoming the Warrior of Light would've been short ones for Nailah. She didn't travel to Ul'dah with the intent to survive.
The best path for her outside of that would probably involve her joining Zezene's family when they first asked. She would still work as a mercenary in this timeline and she'd still be incredibly closed off, but she'd have somewhere she could return to at least, with people that seemed to care for the Mercenary.
As far as the others...
Yomi could've stayed with her mother, had she not been exiled. She would've learned about the local kami and become a respected priestess or onmyoji in her own right. Another path I've considered for her involves her becoming an auspice much like Soroban did, but I'm fond enough of the idea I might fold it into her actual story...
Had Verre's village not been attacked, she probably would've left of her own accord to pursue her curiosity. She'd have significantly less guilt and probably would end up with the Ironworks in this timeline, happily tinkering away on whatever project needed it. Alternatively, she could've ended up as a mechanic on a sky pirate's crew (which was her original inspiration/intent lol).
Zezene would've thrived as a rogue in Limsa Lominsa, or they would've become a successful pirate with a crew of their own. They're flexible enough they'd adapt in any timeline or situation they end up in tbh.
#answered asks#thank you for the ask!#zen *really* fucked up when they used nailah's name the way they did#while it turned out okay in the end it took a long while for the two to reconcile#(aka nailah reassessed how she saw her name and apologized for lashing out#while zen apologized for going behind her back even with good intentions)#oc: hrothwol#oc: verre hyskaris#oc: zezene zene#oc: yomi kaifu

here's a writing prompt: jabitha movie night :)
“Tarantino again, Jones?”
Jughead looks at Tabitha, her arms crossed and a teasing grin on her face. “What can I say? I'm a sucker for his dark comedy."
“Wasn’t he your high school idol or something?” She picks up the VHS of Pulp Fiction.
"Yeah, actually," he admits. "I played him many times at the drive-in. I'm pretty sure people didn't bother to come when I was in charge of picking the movie."
Tabitha laughs loudly. "Why am I not surprised?"
He doesn't answer her, just pulls her in for a quick kiss. The way she knew him so well, even though he had met her in the darkest period of his time and only a year ago, made Jughead feel grateful to have her in his life.
"What was that for?" she asks once they've pulled apart.
"So it's weird to kiss my girlfriend now?"
"No, not at all." Tabitha strides to the kitchen. “Do you want anything, Jug?”
“Normally, yes, but after all your mean teasing, I just want to watch the godfather of indie cinema by myself now.” He’s lying, but he’s joking with her right back.
There’s a clattering sound from the kitchen, so Jughead strains to check on Tabitha. "Tabs, you okay?"
She nods at him. "Yep. Just grabbing this bag of Pops takeout I got for tonight."
He glares at her. He can't give in that quickly, so he plays along with her ruse. Instead of joining her, Jughead puts the VHS of Pulp Fiction into the VCR.
"If you don't let me join you, I'll have to eat all these burgers, and I'm not sure if I can," she taunts teasingly. When he looks at her, Tabitha is pulling out one of the wrapped burgers and smirking at him. "Do you really want these to go to waste?"
"Fine, I forgive you for teasing me. Can you join me, and bring the burgers?" He sits on the couch and gestures for her to join him, making space for her to sit right next to him.
She does, making herself comfortable next to Jughead, throwing a blanket over their legs and handing him a burger. "I knew you couldn't resist me."
"Or maybe I just wanted you because you had burgers?" he jests, pretending to ponder.
"Nope, it was me," Tabitha confidently states, resting her head on his shoulder.
Jughead doesn't confirm or deny anything as he starts the movie, but it was definitely Tabitha. He'd never be able to resist her.

as someone who's seen both the x files and read the inkheart series do you also see a similarity between mulder and mo??? both of them have someone disappear in their lives and seem to perpetually victimize themselves because of it. also hot headed and kind of rash and self righteous. just realized this myself
congrats on sending my absolute favorite ask i've ever received omg
i 500% see exactly what you mean--i've been thinking about this the past few days and there are so many examples i think of mo's mulder-esque rashness but when basta says he's going to start maiming meggie in inkheart to make mo read and mo doesn't even change his expression or say anything and just pitches the mug of boiling water at basta's head has GOT to be something mulder actually did in the show. has to be.
idk if you're familiar with the absolute funniest txf post on the entire internet ("ever heard of the knife alien") but the energy coming off of that is the exactly how it feels when mo tries to explain how the reading thing works.
person: "there's no way that person over there is a book character you brought to life. that's just ridiculous"
mortimer: "ever heard of fucking magic"
and resa as samantha?? i could spend Y E A R S thinking on what that says about her since we never find out what happened for sure to samantha and honestly get to decide which of the possible options we like best.. which is so in-theme with inkheart in general i want to weep. samantha's story is always told FOR her and she never got the chance to have any agency in it which. whew. is so exactly what resa was furious about in inkdeath (how the inkworld is a world for men but she will not stand by and let them tell her story for her yk!!). even before we find out in inkheart that resa is alive and well (well. not really) there's so much speculation about where she could be, why she would have left (from the people who don't know she got sucked into the book), what she's like now that i refuse to believe cornelia didn't watch the sht out of txf and internalize it even by accident. ain't no way.
detour over--mo and mulder both just. THRIVE on being the designated Sad Boy in the room. mulder does because he's an attention whore but i think it's the only way mo feels validated in a grief he can never fully explain to people for fear of looking like he believes bigfoot came from the fucking moon. he certainly doesn't have peers he confides in even in a casual, non-magic-related capacity (all of the folcharts being such crippling loners is kind of funny; someone remind me to come back to that one day) so he needs everyone he comes into contact with to acknowledge his pain without letting them actually know him. so he--for lack of a better term--acts out and gets himself into the dumbest possible situations. always tells stories like he's the only one affected by whatever happened (unless the other possible victims are resa or meggie ofc) (and this isn't rabid dustfinger-stan!kenna talking, i'm thinking about the lack of empathy for fenoglio's grandchildren being traumatized, the dismissive "wow that sucks" when strolling players were killed because of him (although maybe we can argue he just didn't feel like meggie needed to hear that idk)).
all that's up until inkdeath which is so obviously and magnificently his book. his rise above victimhood to become the avenging angel fenoglio thought he was casting as cosimo is so gorgeously written i feel like i should send cornelia $50 for rereading privileges. and that's where he and mulder finally diverge i think--and it's not quite fair to mulder because so much of his character was dependent on duchovny but mans really just took tf off on his gf and their tiny baby, had no contact with her, took no responsibility, lowkey becoming scully's samantha for a while lmao.
#my apologies for how long this took to answer and for the other asks i still need to respond to#been a rough few weeks physically and mentally but i'm back bitches#unfortunately i'm back at 2 fucking am and will be having a bad day tomorrow because of it lmao#inkheart#mo folchart#says kenna#when this ask came through i was at work and had to go outside and take a deep breath that's how good an observation this is#also it feels so good to actually write on my computer#bullshitting in my tags on my phone is so fun but now i'm mad at all the good stuff i've said the past few weeks#that i left to rot in my tags#because i didn't want to turn my computer on

How many submissions did Gira get I need to know or was it just me who submitted him?
it was just the one submission! however he fit the theme so well that I was happy to include him
#also I have friends into sentai so I wanted to keep him in for them too#plenty of characters in here were single nominees. I cut submissions off pretty early in just bc they took so long to get through#I may have underestimated some characters' popularities and for that I apologize in advance#I tried to make it a well-seeded bracket but ig we'll see how it goes#ask answered
