I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again;
GO READ DOWN THEN LEFT
It’s so good, (and not just because I love Jed and Octavius) it’s so real in a way that many books aren’t, the writing describing Octavius’s self sabotage is so real (coming from someone who has anxiety), the descriptions are downright amazing, and GRAH ITS JUST SO GOOD!!!
Anyway go support @the-casbah-way because he is really cool and read Down Then Left

In the mid-1980s, animated adaptations of arcade games were commonplace— for example, Hanna Barbera's Pac-Man or Saturday Supercade's Q*Bert. Both of these shows, for lack of a better term, 'Americanize' the designs of the titular characters, so I got to thinking...
"What would a mid-1980s cartoon based off Rascal look like?"
Seeing as I've had prior experience in drawing faux animation cels, I decided to put that talent to the test and whip up not only a cel drawing but also a painted background for a scene for a hypothetical 1985 Rascal cartoon! 🍬🧡💙🧡🍬
(You can get a print of both the standalone cel as well as the cel overlaid on top of the painted background over on my RedBubble store!)

ah, gosh. some folks asked for it yesterday and i forgot to deliver, so heres the silly thing i was talkin about. (the mira i reference here is specifically from @the-bitter-ocean 's take on a looping mira au! wa!)
The first time you see this Mira, you swear you feel your heart stop. You got here (wherever this place is) second. After this m'dame. M'dame Odile looks similar enough to yours that seeing her wasn't all that strange. She looked different, but not wildly so. You think you shocked her more than she did you.
Seeing Mira, though… she walks into the room and the moment you see each other, there's a mutual realization. Neither of you actually know each other, but there's a kind of understanding when you see someone who has the same face as a friend except for a scar in front of you.
The door closes behind her, you hear it latch shut. It locks. You're, uh… not super sure if you're breathing? You try to remember how it's done, how to calm yourself down, but it catches in your throat. All you can do is stare at Mira's wide eye with both of your own. She stares right back.
It's strange because you know for certain that she's not yours, exactly. Not the Mira you know and love, the one that helped to save you from yourself. You wonder if this is how Loop felt seeing you for the first time.
Still… that doesn't stop you from getting to your feet. It doesn't stop you from walking forward or her from meeting you half way. You scoop this Mira, the girl with a face you don't quite know, up into a sweeping hug. She squeezes you tight as the two of you spin and before you know it: you're laughing!
When you let go, she stares up at you with just one eye, full of curiosity and you think maybe some fear. "Hi!"
"Hi!" You echo, grinning. "I'm Isabeau!"
She giggles. "I know! I'm Mirabelle!"
"I know!!"

hey! I heard on ColorQuest there is a discord server!! how can I get there??? I would really like to chat with other people there and share the memes we made with my friends!
((sorry if there are mistakes here, I used a translator ;3))
I personally do not have a discord server for colorquest, but I have heard of some people with fan made servers! I think I'm actually in one, though I don't use discord enough to be active in it.
I used to have a server, but it's been gone for a couple of years now, I'm pretty sure.

According to preliminary analysis, I have reached 1000 posts. Neat.
Y'all should check out the cool artists that are around, especially some of the ones reblogged here. I'll just continue my skullgoggian shenaniganary.

I started making a fake book cover for @firstelevens latest amazing fic sugar pie, honey bunch and then I got kind of obsessed with making book covers in Canva, so I decided to make covers for a few more of my favorite sambucky fics of hers to show my appreciation for her writing keeping me sane the last few months ♥️
by land, by sea, by dirigible [18K words, 6 chapters, complete] - Sam and Bucky team up with the dynamic duo from Marvel's Cloak & Dagger (RIP) and magic, literally, ensues. 🔮⚜️
sugar pie, honey bunch [AU, 55K words, 17 chapters, complete] - the plot of TFATWS except it's behind the scene of an all-star season of The Great British American Bake Off. Alliances are formed, conspiracy theories come to life on twitter, and whisks (and hearts!) are stolen. 🥐💖
a friend of any sort [AU, 3K words, 2 chapters, Part 1 in a series, complete] - Sam needs a fake date for Thanksgiving at his sister's and brings Bucky along to be the most unsuitable, obnoxious boyfriend ever, so his family will leave him alone about being single. Things do not go to plan. 🥧🦃
you can sing me anything [AU, 4K words, 1 chapter, Part 2 in a series, complete] - sequel to a friend of any sort, in which Bucky needs Sam to return the favor and pretend to be his boyfriend to get him out of an awkward situation (and into a better, but still kind of awkward situation). ☕😻
