How about the reader accidentally stumbling upon Smoke shirtless and Smoke takes this opportunity to tease the reader?
Shirtless!Tomas x Reader
A/n: OOOOOOHHHHhhhh, I'm going to enjoy this lol
Tags: MK1, Post-MK1, drabble, soft score smut, NSFW
C/w: Shirtless Tomas, Tomas being a very, very bad boy, heat, sexual tension, sexually charged flirting, drooling
Tumblr media
You always loved hanging around the Lin Kuei Brothers. They were always great to be around. Except for Bi-han, he always had such a harsh and rude nature. Besides he had betrayed them by allying with Shang Tsung, so he was basically out of the picture. Kuai and Tomas made up for his absence with their loving and kind personalities. They were always nice to be around and you just adored them. You especially loved Tomas, he was a giant sweetheart, though his appearance didn't always let on to that. The man is an entire Brickhouse. You always tried not to stare too long at his veiny arms, his giant biceps, his broad shoulders, his massive...what were we talking about again?
Anyway, the man is a gentle giant and you love him to bits. That's why this moment shook you to your core. One day you were with them at their new base of operation, you wandering around the place looking for...what exactly? The bathroom? It doesn't matter you immediately forgot as you walked into Tomas's room. You had accidentally made a wrong turn, opened the door and walked right into his room. Your heart stopped as you saw him, without a shirt. A gentle sunlight came from the window and illuminated his ripping body. Highlighting every valuable detail, you could've sworn that was just the gods being cruel to you.
Tomas jumped in surprise as you entered the room, and his pecs jumped with him. "Y/n! What exactly are you doing here?" he softly asks. But you cannot respond, you are too taken by surprise by his body. It was like you were locked in a trance, you were helpless as you stared and admired every muscle on his body. You didn't notice and you soon began to drool as you stared at him. You didn't hear Tomas repeatedly ask you what you were doing in his room and if you were all right.
It took him some time to figure out what you were staring at, things slowly clicked as Tomas followed where your eyes were. A mischievous grin spread across his face.
"Oh, what's wrong, Y/n" He coyly asks as he poses slightly, just enough for his muscles to flex. You gasp as you see this, you feel your face get hot, and you are no doubt blushing. You felt your heart race as Toma continued to flex. "Is something distracting you, Y/n?" He teases.
"I"
"I"
You try to speak, but you're so lost in his body that your brain can't seem to process a single word to say. Tomas's flexes seem to get more sexual as he goes on he gives you this wicked smile. He knows what he's doing to you. Who would've known someone so sweet and innocent like him could be such a deviant? "Why, does Y/n have a crush?" He says, his hand slowly going up and down, rubbing his abs. "Has something caught your eye, Y/n?". His grin gets bigger and bigger as he stares you down with his grey eyes, once adorable or sinister. You're lost in him, you don't know what to do. Your heart is racing faster and faster, you can literally feel it beat against your chest. The final straw was when Tomas began to make his pecs bounce.
At that moment, you finally regain control of your body. With a scream, you turn, cover your face and bolt out of the room. Tomas's laughter fills the hall as you flee. "Come back, I have so much more to show you!" You hear him call as you run.
Afterwards, things are quite awkward between you two. Tomas has reverted back to his sweet and gentle nature, but the devilish side of him still comes out every now and then for ou. He likes to tease you about that time you walked in on him and how you drooled over him. "Careful, we don't need you getting distracted. I'm not in the mood to clean anymore drool.". God you hated him, him and his beautiful face...and his sexy and amazing body, and his....dammit, not again!

hi! not exactly a request but i do wanna ask, whats your process when you're rendering more paint like art? (if that makes sense, English isnt my first language so apologies hdskhsjdbd) i really love how you use the colors and im curious how you do it :0
i’ve been meaning to answer this one for a while so here’s how i painted miku in today’s post (put under the read more because yeah prepare for a long post
i’d also like to preface this by saying that i never follow a set way of doing things, so in terms of what my personal process is like, these are only broad strokes of what i do! sometimes i’ll combine or skip parts entirely, depending on how i feel. also, this is not a tutorial, just how i do things, so please don’t treat it like one :’D this will read like the ‘how to draw an owl’ picture if you do
first, like every artist, i sketch. more specifically, i’m getting an idea of what i want to paint later on. this could be how a scene is set up or in this case, how a character is posed. here i’m not concerned about details or getting everything perfectly, i’m only planning how the thing will be composed. maybe a lot of canvas size changing, or adjusting what miku’s doing (note how busted miku’s right hand looks from all the transforming!) however, i still have to be concerned with how clear the sketch will be to future me, because the sketch won’t be any good if i can’t read what miku’s doing
Tumblr media
after that, i lay down a flat gray under the sketch, mainly focusing on giving miku a clear silhouette. this is also a good time to make adjustments to the composition on the fly if i suddenly feel like something can be improved upon, like shortening miku’s left arm from the sketch!
Tumblr media
after painting a flat silhouette, i start shading in grayscale, focusing only on lighting. i usually do it in two passes, one for the lightest and darkest tones i’ll use (not black and white) and then a second for midtones to blend them better with the base gray but i forgot to screenshot the result of the first pass 🗿 nevertheless, here is where i can start adding some amount of details. i’m not including any extra accessories yet, just focusing on the base design of the outfit and the character herself (for anyone wanting to draw characters from That Gacha Game, this is how i personally make the process more bearable for myself.) i still use the dark gray to separate where certain details (like the facial features and fingers) begin and end, mainly to make colouring more bearable later.
Tumblr media
now here’s where i get the Good Colours. it’s a cheat lol. i put a gradient map layer over the grayscale painting so that there’s a little bit of color to start. some gradient maps can be applied as is, some need the layer settings adjusted to make it look good. this one, for example, is a (free) gradient map set from the csp assets store that needs you to set the layer opacity to 20% and to set the blending mode to color to achieve this result. in general, i tend to pick which gradient map i want to use based on vibes, or basically whether i want the work to be warmer or cooler, colour-wise. but this does do quite a bit of lifting for the colors in my stuff.
Tumblr media
and then, finally, i add the colours. i add flat base colours in an overlay layer. at this stage, i’ve made the character silhouette clear enough that i don’t need to refer to the sketch anymore for what miku looks like. also, the gradient map layer does its magic by making the shading a bit more vibrant than it would’ve been without it. after that i paint over with a new layer to add details like the lace.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and then i put some extra shading on top. basically this is where the ‘better lighting’ happens. again, this isn’t a tutorial, so i’m not here to say what each part of the lighting is, but i’ve labeled which layers do which job. in other works where the lighting within a scene is more defined (from a window, from a small crack in the walls, etc) the glow dodge layer may be more opaque and sharper, but since this isn’t a work with that, the lighting was applied using an airbrush. the linear burn layer is also there to make the whole thing darker so the glow dodge doesn’t end up oversaturating miku. i also usually match the lights to the vibe i want, and use a complementary color for the shadows. so here you can see i have warm colors on the glow dodge layer, but light purple on both the linear burn and multiply layer.
Tumblr media
and that’s it for the character—here’s a gif showing how each layer adds to miku! (sorry it’s so toasty)
Tumblr media
as for the background, depending on the complexity, it may go through a similar process, or if i can settle with flat image backgrounds, i just go for that. it’s ok to use external image materials. i didn’t have a background in mind for this miku in specific, so i got some default csp materials and threw together something
and that’s about a rough overview of what my process for more finished works looks like! again, art is a fluid process so i never specifically stick to certain steps all the time, and you shouldn’t either. i can probably answer why i’d pick this colour over another in one particular work, but it’s something that kinda has to be learned on a grander scale. i think everyone can already feel what colors work with what atmosphere or what setting, even if they can’t immediately explain why. colors and composition do take some level of experimentation to find what works best!

Tumblr media
꩜ Room Content: GN! Reader x Kaveh, nothing but fluff, established romantic relationship, reader is a woodcarver, Kaveh still stays at Alhaitham's home in this, SFW ꩜ A/N: I LOVE KAVEH (worm or not), pardon any mistakes I wrote this in one sitting at 4.15am LOL
Tumblr media
"Would you love me if I were a worm?"
The cup headed towards your mouth stills and you glance over at your boyfriend seated across the table. You roll the question around in your mind. It's not the strangest thing he's ever asked, no, far from it really. Oftentimes, the both of you like to pose unusual situations to each other, serving as an opportunity to lightheartedly pry into the other's thoughts and minds. His question this time has a simple answer and you reply speedily, confidently.
"Of course I would," your assuring tone is cut off when the cogs in your mind turn again and a myriad of context questions pop up. "Wait a sec. Are we talking about a scenario where I've never met you before and you're just a worm that wriggled into my life? Or, or are you saying that somehow, one day in the future, you just turned into a worm?"
Now, it’s Kaveh’s turn to pause and ponder.
“In this case, let’s just say you realised I somehow, overnight, turned into a worm when you come to pick me up from Alhaitham’s place.”
‘Ooh, interesting scenario Kaveh.” Taking a swig of your beverage, your mind works out an answer with the new information granted by the blonde.
“Yeah, my answer doesn’t change, I’d still love you of course,” and at this, your boyfriend beams, nothing shy of brilliant and loving, but then your train of thought continues.
“Oh! Do you think Alhaitham would somehow become a worm too? Assuming the worm transformation was a proximity thing of course-” a laugh leaves your lips, “-Imagine arguing with worm Alhaitham! Would I be able to tell the two of you apart?”
Kaveh snorts and rolls his eyes, jokingly offended that you wouldn’t be able to recognise and tell a worm version of him apart from a worm Alhaitham. 
“Alright, alright. How you wound me [name], you’re just teasing me at this point.” Shaking his head with a hand to his forehead in mock misery, the blue feather in his hair waves jovially with his actions. The two of you share a laugh before continuing with the dinner, chatter flowing freely once more.
Tumblr media
A few more weeks roll by and a tear of the calendar page reveals the seventh day of July, your beloved Kaveh’s birthday. Of course, you already had his present ready for him. What kind of partner would you be if you forgot the birthday of the most lovable sweetheart? Furthermore, you would be dishonest to say you weren’t excited for him to see one of the gifts you had in store.
Picking him up from Alhaitham’s for a dinner date, your breath catches when the door swings and before you stands a Kaveh dressed to the nines. He was already stunning to begin with, he always is, with how he can only be described as a sunray incarnate and the best of the world wrapped into one. But in front of you is Kaveh in a new outfit, accented with pink from the ripest Zaytun peaches and fiery reds and regal golds that serve to highlight the beauty of his ever-bright crimson eyes. The handiwork by the tailor is masterful and you feast your eyes on how every seam and stitch accentuates Kaveh’s elegance. 
“Is… is the outfit alright?” Twiddling with his thumbs, he tacks on a follow-up, “This was Alhaitham’s birthday gift, as much as I insisted I didn’t need a new set of clothes.” 
Mentally, you high-five Alhaitham for dressing up your lover because you can’t help but drink in the sight of him. Stepping up closer to him, you press a kiss on his plush lips, picking up on the taste of his fruit-scented lip balm.
“I think you can tell my answer, lovebird. You’re nothing short of the definition of gorgeous, far exceeding it even.” The blonde giggles and his laughter chimes delightfully in your ears. (You know you’ll be replaying that sweet sound for as long as you live.)
“Shall we get going?” Extending your arm to Kaveh, he loops his own through and the two of you leisurely make your way to your dinner reservation, arm in arm.
Dinner goes smoothly, the food is sublime, and the company even more so. A clink! Is heard as you toast to him and you sip at the drink before perking up, remembering something.
“Ah! Before I forget, let me give you my present, lovebird.”
Over the years, you’ve gotten to know Kaveh enough to know that he’s not exactly… fond of expensive, pricey gifts. It leaves him with a mixture of gratitude and gnawing guilt. In Kaveh’s case, it truly is the thought that counts. Thankfully, you’ve worked your way around it. Being a skilled woodcarver has its perks after all. Year after year that you’ve been with Kaveh, you always gift him meaningful little trinkets and carvings that never fail to brighten up his birthday. Once, you walked into his study and you saw all the carvings you had given him lined up on his desk. Noting how none of them had a trace of dust on them, even the first carving you gave him (a cute wooden carving of him as a fungus), your heart sang at the care he showed to your creations.
Pulling out a box decorated with a bow that matches the colour of his feather, you slide it across the table with a chipper “Happy birthday, lovebird! Open it up!” Eager hands gingerly unwrap the gift and a smile cracks on Kaveh’s face as he holds up a carving of Mehrak, the size of slightly more than half of his palm. 
“There’s more, take a look at what’s inside,” you laugh.
“You’ve outdone yourself this time [name]!” He exclaims as he unlatches the top, marvelling at how intricate the tiny clasp is. The mini Mehrak opens up at its functional hinges and Kaveh is greeted by the sight of the most adorable miniature renditions of his architectural tools. A compass, various rulers (because Archons know where he keeps leaving them around the house), a protractor, and triangular rulers of different sizes. To top it all off, there’s a plaque with some carvings etched into the wood. He squints to make out the words, “My Love and Heart, Kaveh”. Your gift is a touching blend of being practical (for a teeny weeny version of him), aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and so tenderly sentimental.
“Remember the conversation we had about if you turned into a worm? Now, if worm you carried around that little plaque, I’d, without a doubt, recognise you.” Your words process in his mind and everything clicks into place. Soon, he’s laughing again (you’ll never tire of the sound), and you find yourself laughing alongside him. Tears are running down Kaveh’s cheeks and he doesn’t know if it was from how much and how hard he’d been laughing or if it was from how loved he felt right here and now. 
“I’d love you no matter what, Kaveh.” And a kiss from you to him seals the promise, everlasting, evergreen.

Fox thoughts cause he is always on my mind lol
Phase 1 Fox:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He got the corrie guard symbol big on his upper armor -> shows his pride for this corps, pride to be leading it. It shows his loyality towards Coruscant and his duty
Also the other red marks look like abstract arrows down or an abstract form of the sword in the corrie symbol. It’s on his helmet, his upper arms and his shins -> just emphasizes that his duty is his pride. He is born for this.
Still his armor is kind of minimalistic? He could have gone more bold especially with the talent he seems to have? (Like this man painted that symbol perfectly on his chest… the amount of control he has in his hands and the eye for symmetry… 👀)
Anyway since it’s phase one armor, it makes sense that most of it is still white.
I don’t think Fox was the one to choose red as the color for the corrie guards. Red doesn’t shout safety…
But then again after leaving Kamino he got to see so many colors and maybe red just clicked with him because its the only color beside white and blue he knows. As a cadet they wore it. Maybe red is safety for him. So maybe he did choose it.
Pose: confident, chest-out, ready at any given moment, to me he looks light on his feet, maybe even a lil arrogant or bored in the second pic, prouuud
Phase 2:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Corrie symbol on his left arm, very small-> left side indicates loyalty, it’s where the heart is. So the corrie guards are where his loyality still lies. Having it very small on his arm, it might say it is his', it’s more private, less bold and loud. But still prideful, just not 'arrogant'
Now his armor is even more minimalistic. In contrast to his men he has the colors reversed -> probably to show his status as the (marshal) commander, as well as to catch anyone’s attention away from his men. -> protective, caring
His armor is almost completely red. Corrie red, he bathed in the blood of his dead men. He is 'responsible'. He has to shoulder it.
But also red for safety -> perhaps his own need for safety grew.
The white chest armor could indicate the grief that is filled in his heart.
The white also tangles around his biceps and hips. Maybe it’s to show that he is controlled by his grief? The white boots could also mean that where ever he goes, there will be grief
————————————————————————
Yet if we go with the mandalorian color meanings… (tho i dun think they had learned much of the culture (,see Bacara being socially outcasted because he couldn’t understand mando'a)) <- correction in the comments!!!!
Red also stands for honoring a parent. Since Fox has no parent except maybe he viewed his trainers as some, i don’t think this fits. I don’t think Fox would honor Jango either lol
White stands for a new start… again i don’t think that fits for him.
————————————————————————
Pose: side view, kinda turned his back, yet he always has a posture that screams confidence -> loss of pride, insecurity, less controlling, reacts and acts, more risk taking ( i forgot the adjective… but like if someone has his back turned to summon, they have less vision and control, they r letting danger in. In this case tho he has only half of his back turned towards the viewer -> could show that he is still wary but in less control). His posture in other scenes also seem more defensive (him crossing his arms in front of his chest) and he is also easier to frighten? (See anakin causing him to flinch a bit)
Honestly i dunno what i wanted to say with this. These r just thoughts that popped up in my mind
But i guess all in all you could say that Fox went from confident, prideful, a lil bit arrogant to confident, quiet , depressed jxjjdndndndndndn

Stream-of-consciousness thoughts for TriMax Vol. 3, Chapters 1-3 below.
TriMax Volume 3 Covers
Eyyyy! It's blonde Milly!
I kinda miss Meryl's long hair....
His life as a what?!?!
Whyyyy is Vash getting punched on the alternative version of the cover?? Hasn't this boy been through enough pain???
LOL, Milly eating the food from Meryl's chopsticks.
Tumblr media
I just wanna point out that the kanji all over the alternate front cover just says "meat" over and over again. Sasha Braus would be proud.
Nooooo, send the puppet guy awaaaaaaay! No more puppet guy! *cries*
Yes, the puppet guy bothers me more than the otherworldly horror on the bottom of the back cover. And more than Legato, who is arguably also a puppet guy.
I'm a lot less sure about all the untranslated Japanese on the alternate back cover, but it looks like Wolfwood is saying something about meat, and the text bubble on the bottom left just says, "Meeeeeeeaaaaaat."
LOL, tiny poorly drawn penis on the giant monster-guy.
Chapter 1: Reservoir Dogs
Awww, look at everyone being deceptively happy! Even Kuroneko's making an appearance! (Also, yes, this is Wolfwood's happy face.)
Tumblr media
I love how calm Vash looks here despite everything. Wolfwood, on the other hand, seems to have some different thoughts. But... he's actually onto something. That level of calmness despite everything is and should be terrifying. (I colored it because Vash is so pretty.) (Also, I legit forgot the smudge on his face was blood until I started coloring this.)
Tumblr media
Pretty sure this guy is giving Wolfwood major tit window envy.
Heh, the real reason Wolfwood is swearing is because everything Vash has told him is messing with his head. What would normally be a point-and-shoot choice for him has suddenly become complicated with Thoughts.
Not sure what happened here. Something exploded... and... Wolfwood threw up??
Well, that cleared some stuff up for WW. Though I get the idea this guy can eat a LOT of lead before it gives him an upset tummy.
LOL, "Takin' out his hands is like disarmin' him." I'm not sure if the pun works in Japanese, but it's funny in English.
No no no no no! Put Puppetman BACK WHERE HE CAME FROM!!!
I don't even mind his horrible body-moosh-horror abomination as much as I mind Puppetman himself. (I know he's "Puppet Master," but he doesn't deserve enough of my respect for that.)
Is... the abomination trying to do a video game cheat code on Vash?
Shoot all the things, Vash! I dunno what you're shooting, but as long as you do, that's what matters!
Cool guy pose.
Tumblr media
Awww, sad Vash. When this battle is over, someone needs to give him the biggest of hugs. He's earned it. He needs it.
WTF, bat wings??? From where?!
Oooh, creepy comparison shot of Vash plus Knives. I approve.
Dude. Now the creepy guy is digging trenches in his own face with his own hand. While wearing gloves. What the hell. Please get rid of him.
Untainted material?! Make him your puppet?!? Where's Wolfwood with his murder-cross? I need some murder to happen here.
Oh, he's in a hole.
"Yer name might remain, even long after ya die... but yer ideals join ya in the grave." I love this line. It reminds me of a favorite of mine from Mass Effect's Samara: "Only your actions will be remembered. May you choose them well."
I like how, all throughout this scene, Wolfwood's got the Punisher on a little leash like it's a boogie board or something.
Holy crap, the girls are here, too??? This is not a safe place for the girls. Or for anyone, really. But particularly people without some sort of superhuman something going for them.
Saved, by terrified toma causing delays!
Chapter 2: Cement
Legato, you freaking dork. Glad you're enjoying being carried everywhere in your weird coffin-iron maiden thing.
Heheheheheheh. Wolfwood the traitor. <3 you, Wolfie....
LOL, Wolfwood's absolute casualness at this accusation is beautiful.
Dude. Ninelives needs some dental work pronto.
For as much as he resents certain aspects of his life, Wolfwood really seems to revel in certain kinds of carnage. He's nothing but focus and falling bullets in this fight.
Tumblr media
One must wonder, does the Punisher ever run out of ammo? Does Wolfwood even know that machine guns are best used in short bursts, or is he just that good at "pray and spray"?
Ninelives clearly ate ALL his vegetables as a kid. WW's looking a bit worried.
RIP Wolfwood's ribcage.
And the Punisher is so far away, too....
Ha! Pocket Pistol!
I just wanna say that despite this guy having a cat-like name, Ninelives is a disgrace to cats everywhere. He's nothing like a cat and that's not a compliment.
You know... using a big-ass industrial factory-type door to keep out the giant murder monster is a pretty good plan at this moment.
Tumblr media
LOL, Wolfwood, you cheeky bastard.
Tumblr media
I dunno if taunting Ninelives is a great plan, even if he's missing an arm. Congrats on finishing your disarming procedure, though, Wolfie!
Or is he the dumbass who dove right in and is now torn apart in this place...?
I don't have any idea why this chapter is called Cement. Like, usually I can make some sort of connection, but this one is lost on me.
Chapter 3: No Escape
Wait wait wait. Did that disembodied arm just CRAWL ACROSS THE ROOM AND OPEN THE DOOR?!?! Gods, someone kill it with fire, please.
This is just... so Wolfwood. You do you, my lovely foul-mouthed murder-friend.
Tumblr media
I feel like Vash heard all that and is mad because Wolfwood is trying to kill someone again.
Gods, why did Nightow have to make Vash SO PRETTY in this arc??
Ew, Ninelives is gross. He's just gross. Puppetman is creepy. Ninelives is gross.
He's called Ninelives. Maybe you just have to kill him nine times....
Uhhhh... Ninelives has EYES in his belly?? PEOPLE IN HIS BELLY?!?! LIVING BELLY PEOPLE?!?!?!?!
For some reason, Wolfwood cocking the Punisher here amuses me. (The sound effect is "ga-kin".)
Tumblr media
Scenes like this make me kinda glad this isn't in color. Then again, I got through Attack on Titan, Chainsaw Man, and Hellsing Ultimate despite all the guts and stuff, so *shrug*.
SO. MANY. GOOD. VASH PANELS. Ugh, I just want to pour them on pancakes and eat them all up.
Ugh, Vash knows as soon as he sees them. He has no choice but to know. The situation means there's no way it could be any different. But part of him would still hesitate.
Also, the baby pulling a gun is REALLY darkly hilarious.
This whole business is really mucking with Vash's instincts, and Puppetman knows it. Can we please throw Puppetman into Mount Doom now???
Wait, who's Emilio??
Ugh, I have to call it here for the night. I just want to get past this. I want Vash to get past this.

Ascension of the cybermen time!!
I'm dedicated to getting series 12 finished tonight, I want to start flux so bad
My liveblogs under the cut
The story of brendan is so much cuter than the actual timeless child story man. Maybe there's an alternate universe where the timeless child was found by someone as loving as that Irish couple
I looove scenes where companions find out the doctor knows about horrifying events in humanity's future. I wonder what the fam would think of the toclafane
Mmhm even though the doctor doesn't like weapons, she's still used to having plenty on hand when it comes to the cybermen. Even that abandoned theme park had a doomsday bomb on hand
I looove the cyberdrones, theyre so funky. Best thing since the cybermats 😄
Wooahh stunts.
God I love the doctor in this. I think she's so scarred from Bill, she desperately wants them to just leave and go far away from the cybermen. In that last mission with Bill, she thought everything would be fine, then she thought she could save Bill, then thought she could fix her. She knows better now. But I think she need to believe in herself more, because we all know what happens when the doctor assumes she'll lose...
Oohh it's Ashad
This is such a serious scene but the doctor runs so silly I love her
"I used to do this a lot and people got mad" story of your life i think 😆
Now what do you have ginger humbugs for girl 🤭
Sorry Ashad I can say with certainty that you will not be bringing about the end of humanity fhdjkddls
"Have to bill you for therapy at this rate" 😭😭
The brendan story as an allegory for the timeless child is so fascinating to me purely because there's parts of it that just....aren't quite right. Like the loving parents and the cliff fall being more malicious instead of accidental. Iirc the story was created by Tecteun so some of the changes make sense (the loving parents- tecteun sees herself as a saviour) but why the other changes? Just to make it make more sense? To seem more unremarkable?
A fully functional abandoned ship.....if its sounds too good to be true, it probably is
Graham is lowkey so doctory. "Are you gonna keep going on about that" "every hour, on the hour", "level 139, always been my favourite level." Over explaining his weird little phrases. And that reaction to being flirted with lol. It's all very doctor.
I feel bad that this Ko Sharmus guy ends up dying for nothing basically
Aw Yaz is very Doctory too. She has the doctors optimism.
I love that the brendan story is like. Everything is perfectly normal. Until you look a little too closely. Or watch a little too long. But even if someone had watched the whole thing, if theyre not familiar with earth customs, they might just assume everyone who retires from the garda gets their memory wiped. But even so, if they're paying attention then theyll probably find it a bit odd that brendan had aged but his loving father and supportive superior officer (who are now both torturing him and wiping his memory) haven't aged at all somehow. It's such a good allegory for the story of tecteun and the other higher ups exploiting the timeless child for endless life (thus lack of ageing) then betraying them after initially posing as someone to be trusted
GALLIFREY
Kicking my legs and clapping rn LOOK WHOS HERE
OH. I forgot it just ends right after he appears aahhh dbjsksmd what a cliffhanger

still feeling the effects of the coffee i drank this morning so i am 🖕😜🖕 posting for my future self to be embarrassed about and deal with.
idk if it was intentional or what but note how this szn, steve implicitly trusts and respects nancy’s instincts in several instances instead of shutting them down, and only ever argued about task delegation but still stands down once approached with reason. 
like when nancy wanted to go the library, his response wasn’t “no way. we need to stick together” (which would’ve been well-intentioned and understandable) but “yeah, ok you need someone.” or how he completely supported her idea of posing as academic scholars despite having doubts about the creel lead. 
i have more slightly tangential brainrot to say under the cut.
the scene where the scooby gang had a conversation was particularly interesting to me. the dynamics were like: eddie=skeptic, robin=throwing wild idea, nancy/steve=facts, grounding the idea. idk this seems significant to me cuz steve is often the skeptic/straight man in grp dynamics. 
this dynamic even extends to the framing of the scene: robin and eddie had their own individual frames, but steve and nancy were sharing not one but two frames (just on that convo alone, cuz they had several others post-DIVE) that just racks focus depending on who’s talking in the shot.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
there’s no way a big-budget tv show just decided to skimp on these frames lmfao so they are definitely intentional lol!!! to me, it’s like an indication that they are finally on the same page (or frame, heh). (edit: forgot to mention, the shot above^ ended with steve moving forward so they’re in equal footing and then they flirted about how she almost killed him that one time, you know, as great OTPs do. so not only are they on the same page in their method of dealing with things, they have also become comfortable flirting with each other, as a treat!) and the ending of this scene where nancy suggests going to her house for guns? steve saying, “so what are we waiting for?” !!!! 
it’s just truly a far cry from their s2 dynamic where steve tries to talk nancy out of investigating about barb’s death (albeit well-intentioned). their present selves’ ways of dealing with issues have aligned!!! and they’re clearly still very attracted to each other. so arguments about them not being well-matched just don’t hold water lolll!! 
(on the other hand, go back to s3 and see how jonathan shut down nancy’s ideas and instincts because he was concerned about self-preservation, which is not even necessarily invalid cuz his poverty has made him function in survival mode all his life and that’s understandable. but this just proves that their differences as people, let alone as a couple, are more fundamental than anything. sidebar: jonathan’s apology when nancy was proven right was like, “i was wrong. don’t let that go to your head.” and i’m supposed to root for them??? when steve apologized twice, one of which could pass as a famous romantic Grovel and that’s all pre-””character development” s1 steve??? hell naw!!!!!)
argue with a wall!!! idc 🖕😜🖕!! caffeine is wearing off oop--

Half a dozen in one (1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5)
Tumblr media
Oh no the Apotheosis is back and it wants to play, that’s never a good thing
Tumblr media
Scriabin is not into it
Tumblr media
I wanted to draw King Scriabin but I goofed up the crown so bad lol, at least his face is cute ✨
Tumblr media
Pokemon Vargases! From that time that I forgot how to draw their Pokemon versions lol. You have to approach Espeon!Edgar gently, he’s easily spooked
Tumblr media
Sylveon!Scriabin is such an attention hog, poor Edgar haha
Tumblr media
*puts my feelers around you condescendingly*
Tumblr media
Sleeping on each other, always ♥ Even sleeping, they’re still intertwined lightly, Edgar’s hand on Scriabin’s shoulder and Scriabin’s on Edgar’s arm ♪
Tumblr media
I had an idea about Scriabin “reading” Edgar’s mind by guessing how he feels about something, but I unfortunately forgot the specifics just as I was writing it down, so frustrating
Tumblr media
I do remember that it was something a lot closer to how Scriabin felt about that thing and he was describing how he felt, not just Edgar, but he realized too late
Tumblr media
Made him feel isolated :(
Tumblr media
Apology hugs 💕
Tumblr media
Who wrote this eviction notice, this is a cave?? I just think they turned out really cute here haha ♪
Tumblr media
Stop being naked >:0
Tumblr media
Don’t wanna get used to it >:(
Tumblr media
After all the Father and Daddy puns, I had to lol. Lady!Edgar with her hair down is just so prettyyyyyy
Tumblr media
Two mops, makin’ out
Tumblr media
For whatever reason, I started a teeny tiny little ScriAnimal series - first up is Scriabat with hand-wings because lol
Tumblr media
I was watching a video of someone with their bird who was munching on the inside of their glasses stem haha
Tumblr media
Scriabird is here to scream and knock things off the counters
Tumblr media
And cutely chew on things
Tumblr media
We are stopping this sketchdump for a Jake appreciation minute ♥ Thank you for appreciating Jake, now back to our regularly scheduled programming
Tumblr media
A quick and silly digital doodle - waxing via tape is not recommended
Tumblr media
Got the urge to draw dragons again, Scriabin needs to settle and Edgar is in protecc mode. His hugs are even harder to escape than normal!
Tumblr media
The original sketch for sleepy Edgar - I couldn’t decide whether to use “World’s #1 Dad” or “World’s Best Dad”, so I just used both for the final version lol. Did Todd give it to him? Did Scriabin? Did they both get him nearly-matching mugs??
Tumblr media
One of the early drafts for the ‘17 redraw; this was actually all drawn on one layer (on purpose! lol), which was a really fun experiment with some brushes I rarely use. I liked the angle of Edgar’s face too, he looks so smug haha ♪
Tumblr media
Tiny Edgar doodle for a quick reference, he’s so cute ♥
Tumblr media
I wasn’t kidding when I said it took a while to get Alone Together right, I was this close to giving up and just doing it the easy way several times before finally getting the trick down - I’m glad I didn’t but sheesh!
Tumblr media
I started a pretty long mini idea that I managed to get like 90% of the way through before deciding I didn’t like it lol, but there were still some really fun poses and expressions
Tumblr media
“What is it?” Light concern Edgar ♥
Tumblr media
Probably the most complex panel of the set, as much as I like the leg poses I’m also frustrated by them lol - didn’t help that my page smudged >:P
Tumblr media
A little bit of expression practice, the cute thing is Scriabin
Tumblr media
I heard it, we all heard it, everybody saw!
Tumblr media
Couple’a Scriabins to practice hair differences. I’ve gotten used to making him simultaneously fluffy and sleek like on the left, but I really love a True Floof look too, with many more starts and stops, it’s really fun ♪
Tumblr media
Uppies!
Tumblr media
Oscillates between “Why” and “You can’t tell me what to do”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Brain baby Weirdly enough, this was actually inspired by a skin-horror idea I had but decided was a little too body-horror-y and so I repurposed it lol
Tumblr media
Some goofy matryoshka dolls haha. They remind me of Near’s finger puppets from Death Note somehow hmm
Tumblr media
More hair differences, using opposing methods of line directionality while shading and texturing Scriabin’s hair. Pushing up from under gives this really nice line weight; it’s harder to do consistently because I keep wanting to sweep down, but when it works, the shadows fall exactly where they should and it’s lovely ✨ And like I said, pulling down is a lot easier, and because of that I can get these really uniform lines - I prefer the tapered effect, but pulling definitely has its uses and-
Tumblr media
Hey wait a minute-
Tumblr media
Golden floof ✨ This is actually really hard to see IRL lol
Tumblr media
Edgar Warmup to see if my tablet was working properly, didn’t have time to pull up refs so from memory it is!
And that’s February through May again! Lots of silly little things, and a surprising number of scrapped larger ideas hmmm

I didn't betray you, why did you betray me? pt1
Na'vi!Quaritch x Na'vi!fem!reader
this is my second time writing so I apologize again tho lol, anyways |you-(Y/N)|
warnings?: Angst, kissing, obsessive, jealous etc
I'll put 12-13+ again - idk
pre story:
You were a Na'vi, originally you were a human, like Jake Sully. When you were humans, you were best friends w Jake, and now too. Before Jake "betrayed" Quaritch, you were working at the same lab as Grace, Quaritch etc. You were working there before Jake came, you two got along quickly, and Quaritch remembered both of your faces, then you and him are Na'vis.
Tumblr media
You were with Sully's family, you and spider had good relationship, as everyone else. You still were at forest, time when Quaritch found Tuk, Kiri etc, you, Neytiri and Jake saved them, so no one left with Quaritch. When you were attacking, Miles didn't knew who was third(you).
When Quaritch came second time, he got spider, you saw it and quickly came to help him, you didn't care if will get both of you, you just didn't want for him to be alone there. "look who came, some girl who was attacking me as Jake and his wife?" He didn't see your face clearly, so he didn't remembered you at once, when you looked at him so you can see his face clearly, he strained his eyebrows, he smiled biting his down lip "well, (Y/N)? I thought you left somewhere else, but without Jake." He was mad and he was holding your shoulder tightly so you couldn't leave. "Well, at least I wasn't with you, ugly creature damn" You said it in Na'vi language, you and spider laughed, "What's so funny?" He was looking seriously, you rolled your eyes on him. He was mad, he got you and spider in their sky ships. Unfortunately for you, both of you were in separated rooms, it wasn't a bedroom of course, just some white room with some table. You were sitting on that table looking at the ceiling, being in your mind. You didn't like being there, it was disgusting being in the same ship as Quaritch. You was angry once you have any thoughts about Quaritch, but you were glad that at least you aren't alone. Your eyes were closed, suddenly door opened, you heard the squeak of shoes, it was him. You opened your eyes, you were emotionless outside , but upset inside. When he walked close to you, you quickly get to the corner, to be far away from him even a little, you hissed. "Oh c'mon darling, I will do nothing." You give him very pissed look, "I need one thing you going to help me with, you do not have choice, unfortunately for you." you looked at him like nothing "I'll help with one condition." he looked surprised, he thought you won't accept at once. "Well, what is it darling?" you looked at him with more alive look, "Let me be with Spider for the most of the time." he swallowed and put his hand around his neck "ahha, (Y/N) you're changed, I'm surprised you agreed, alright, I actually forgot to say what you're going to help me with" you looked at him "what is it." he came closer to you "You're going to help me to learn more about Na'vi, I think you're perfectly understand for what." you looked at him madly, at least he didn't asked you to help to end Jake, "fine, I won't help with anything else...mor-n." He looked at you raising his eyebrows "I didn't heard it darling, repeat?" you rolled your eyes and left to sit on the table. He walked to the door "We'll start tomorrow." he left. You were tired so you didn't care about what he said, you napped on the table in some weird pose but comfortable at least a little, you wasn't tired so much, and so you didn't even waited for this place to be comfortable. Next day you woke up earlier than everyone, you were bored and just sat on the table, time after Quaritch came in room, you looked at him finally thinking that you'll leave this boring room. "We will start when we'll go somewhere." when we got there, he was learning how to fly on Ikran, but hurt hurt himself, you got to treat his injury, you looked weird at him, he noticed it "I-ugh, did Sully got hurt when he was learning?-" you looked at him and smirked "pfft, of course not, he's not an idi-t unlike someone." he was annoyed by that. When you were done, you continued teaching him, it was actually funny and interesting, you had fun with Spider and Quaritch, one day you heard something, and understood that they're planning on how to attack Jake, they already knew that he left. You and Spider were secretly planning on how to not let him do that, he noticed that everytime you go somewhere, you do something weird, he was not happy about it. He had very odd feeling when thinking about you, seeing you being happy, and smiling, he wanted to trust you, but he knew that you were enemies, that hindered with his mission, he didn't control the feelings, he didn't want that to end, but also to continue.
SO YA, this is 1 part and there'll be next ones cause Tumblr won't save after I paste continue, idk why tho(help) anyways, hope y'all like it.

Hi hi!! How about 🌸, 🌱 and 🐻 for whichever F/O you'd like?
Oh my god, so I wrote this out in my phones notes and then just. Forgot about it. Whoopsie.
Yay hiii!! Doing this for papa emeritus ii (platonic, 💀) lucille (💍) hanzo (🏹)and alduin (🐲)
🌸 Pink - How do you and your F/O want to help your love blossom? Will you be doing something new in your relationship next year?
💀(platonic)
💍our love is already quite intense. I would like to take her to America again, to sight see without worrying about money or work or finding a target. Nothing majorly new on the horizon, on my end at least. Lucille is quite good at keeping secrets so who knows what she may have planed!
🏹I'm learning Japanese for him, finally. I know very little from on and off lessons the past... 6 or 7 years... but it's time I take the initiative to do something beneficial and will make us closer! Other than that, it's just the natural trajectory of our relationship happening. We've also started discussing marriage since we've been together for so long.
🐲 I doubt there's much new we can bring into our relationship. All we can hope for is to remain undisturbed.
🌱 Green - What are your hopes for your future beside your F/O? Any shared goals between you?
💀as I'm married to the current papa, there's really nowhere else to go in terms of job security lol. As the retired papa, he gives copia and I advice, and teases that I've taken sister imperators position as papas right hand (although she doesn't appreciate the joke, she does acknowledge my work and hints she would accept me one day taking the mantle)
💍im... not sure... we can't really get married, I wouldn't dream of taking her from Allerdale hall, despite thinking it may be good for her, I would never take her away from Thomas. I think I just want our future to be happy. Quiet and happy.
🏹 marriage might be on our horizon m, we haven talked about it seriously, but well. I have a feeling. Otherwise, we are happy being able to wake up next to each other. He wants to get me fluent in Japanese to take me for a vacation some day.
🐲 -does bringing about the end times count?- mostly we want a peaceful time together. Alduin has lived a long life, and wishes to spend the portion he shares with me not doing anything too cataclysmic. Usually.
🐻 Brown - What about your F/O brings you a sense of safety? What makes them feel safe around you?
💀hes very protective, and that alone makes me feel safe. While hes usually very put together, hes also not afraid to kick the shit out of someone. Papa has been described as sad, bitter, and angry, but honestly? Its the weight of his family's expectations (with the knoweldge that hes a placeholder for his brother, and the way hes treated by his father). Giving him a space to be himself, unhindered, and knowing that I'll still love and accept him as who he is makes him feel safe. Once, in a quiet moment by the fire, playing chess, he told me he was jealous of my father and that I was the daughter he dreamed of having. I only cried a lot 🥹
💍 I don't know if lucille makes me feel *safe* per se, but I also don't feel *unsafe* with her. She certainly makes me happy, but I find her to be safety neutral lol. I know I make her feel safe, she's told me as much! All those ghosts in Allerdale hall, she says she can't feel their presence with me. I quiet her mind, I pose no threat to her and Thomas, and she can feel... normal with me.
🐲 physical safety isn't something either of us really need to worry about with each other. I mean a mage is usually able to defend themselves well enough, but throw in a literal dragon of legend? its a mix of love and comfort, and walking in a strange new territory. It's very new for both of us, so it seems we're both very aware of potential missteps. Even with this sort of hyper vigilance, we know that it's nothing we cannot handle together. It would take the combined eight divines to tear us apart.
🏹 just being near him makes me feel safe. He's one of the few people that makes my anxiety just melt away, because even if I start to panic, a big warm hand on my back and a gentle word and I know im ok. I do my best to do the same for him. Sometimes he doesn't sleep well, with memories of his past, or of things he's done. I lay awake with him as long as he needs, holding him and telling him how loved he is, how I'm never going to leave. I hope I'm able to help him as much as he helps me.

Scratches ↬ p.p
Tumblr media
A/N: OKAY SO, this is like, purely smut lol has no plot :D
Warnings: public-ish? unprotected smut lol (18+ only!)
Pairing: Black cat!reader x Peter Parker (well spiderman technically)
WC: 1.2k
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Panting from the tedious session of sparring with Natasha, Peter bent on his knees to catch a breath, sweat dripping down his back and chest as he scrunched his eyes as he saw her smirking figure looming in front of him. He was enhanced and yet she hadn't broken a sweat.
Suddenly finding his fit t-shirt suffocating, he pulled at it's neckline in an attempt to let the cool air of the AC take away some of the heat.
"How are you not even sweating? And I'm the enhanced one here!" He exclaimed, looking at Nat's smirking figure as she retreats to grab a bottle, handing him one in the process.
"Practice is the key светлячок." She shook her head fondly, looking at him with a raised eye as he raised the obstructive t shirt above his head, having difficulty removing the clingy t-shirt soaked in sweat.
"I'll call Steve, I promised him we'll spar next. Oh and Sam is coming over." She informed, taking a sip from her own bottle.
"That's great. We still have that unfinished Mario kart round anyway." Peter shrugged, turning his back to her once again, fiddling with his gym bag to look for a spare t-shirt.
Lost in his own thoughts, he momentarily forgot that he was in the same room as a highly trained assassin, not noticing that just as she bent to grab her go-to bag, she noticed some….interesting marks on the bare skin of Peter’s back. Biting back a chuckle she said " Are those nail marks?"
Eyes widening in panic, he turned around to see that there were indeed red scratches running down his back. Which was weird, because if he recalled well from the painkiller induced haze, he had healed from bullet grazes in a day, not even leaving an inkling of a scar. While they weren't hurting, he certainly knew where they came from.
"Uh no. No I just ran into a cat...during patrol you know? It was on a tree.. I had to get it down." He fumbled over his words, cheeks red as he remembered last night, "very naughty cat."
"Hey spider-babe." You greeted him, a smirk evident on your face as he looked at you through the eye-mask you wore to protect your secret identity, your platinum blonde wig glinting in the night sky as you saw him perched on the roof of a random skyscraper in his iconic "spidey pose".
"Told you not to call me that, not gonna steal anything tonight?" He said, voice muffled by his mask. Even with the mask on, his voice was husky, the usual falsetto gone as he stood up, holding your waist in a tight grip, bringing you closer so that your chests were touching flush against the other.
"I don't feel like being a bad girl tonight." You retaliated, scratching his chest with one hand and the other hand reaching for his spidey mask as you lifted it enough to expose his lips and jaw. Tracing his sharp jawline, you touched your lips to his, moaning at the contact as he jabbed his tongue into your mouth with an urgency.
"You're eager aren't you?" You said in between the kiss,"calm down baby boy, My apartment's not far."
Your heart pounded in your chest, internally cursing your impulsive mouth, even though at that moment you didn't care that bringing him to your apartment could risk your identity beyond the infamous black cat, but you wanted to know him. You wanted him to know you beyond the facade of being a burglar running around dressed in a black suit.
So far he had been as secretive of his face behind the mask as you had, and the only thing you knew about him was his superhero name. You both had agreed that you wouldn't go past the masks, because things would get messy and personal relationships were hard to maintain, so you were strangers in bed. It was good enough for both of you.
"I need you now kitty, your bed can go fuck itself." He growled, the nickname sending shivers down your spine. Reaching for the zipper of your suit, you let it fall at your legs. He was now aggressively sucking at your neck as you arched your back, giving him better access. That would surely leave a hickey, and it felt good, to be marked by him.
"Okay." Was all it took for him and for you to climb on him, your legs wrapping around his waist as he grabbed your ass, squeezing hard as you let a whimper fall from your lips. Scrambling to get down to a dark alley, you frantically click the spider emblem on his chest, watching the suit in awe as it fell down in rivulets. The masks stayed on and so did the memory of the lingering stare of the cold, mechanical eyes of his suit, tracing every indent of your body.
Not leaving a second to spare, his mouth was on yours again, his bulge against your thighs creating friction as you removed his boxers, his hard member springing out, slicked with pre-cum. Licking your lips, you spring your eyes from his dick to meet his eyes while thumbing the pink, lush tip, making him shiver. Holding on to his neck, you climbed on him, removing your panties and bra in the process, nipples hardening as the cool air hit your breasts.
"Fuck, you're so tight kitty." He gritted his teeth, holding your left boob, massaging it with a huff as you pushed yourself down, feeling his dick penetrate you. Trying to hear for any commotion, you sighed when you heard none. You were in a discreet alley, and New York had plenty of them so you didn't have to worry about unexpected visitors.
"Only for you Spidey, feel me close around you." You moaned loudly. Your stomach was coiling with a familiar pressure and you couldn't stop it, unconsciously digging your fingers in his back as you overcame with pleasure. You couldn't believe you were doing spidey in a dirty New York alley instead of a shitty motel room, goosebumps crawling your skin as you thought that you could do this everyday.
"I'm close spidey." You spit out, scrunching your eyes behind the mask, pushing your nose into his neck as you huffed a breath.
"That's it pretty girl, you're doing great." He thrusted into you this time. You were practically dancing around his body with yours, his chest glistening with sweat as he scrunched his eyes close.
You gave a last shout, orgasm spilling out of you as you laughed in pleasure, not noticing that you had left numerous scratch marks on his back. Well he would have to deal with it. Besides, his spider healing would take care of it.
Clearing his throat, he shook his head, looking at Natasha with a smirk. She looked him in the eyes with a knowing glint, because of course she knew everything, she was a superspy/assassin after all.
"Can you spider bros not communicate with your freaky spider mojo PLEASE? It's freaking me out." Tony shouts, shaking them from their stupor. Holding up a bottle, he nodded at them and continued with his treadmill.
"Those are just cat marks." He said once again, pupils dilating under the harsh sun entering from the glass windows of the compound.
"Sure. Whatever you say." She shrugged.
Smirking, he grabbed an energy drink from the stalls, passing through Tony who grumbled something about "stupid spiders".

Thought process and easter egg on the Digimon Anniversary Illustration! 
Hello everyone, today I feel like explaining some stuff over my Digimon Illustration, mostly why I drew thing this way or point out some little details and easter eggs you might have missed. ;)
Click on read more if you want a LENGTHLY explanation with a lot of rambling from me, or if not you can just enjoy the process gif. <3 
The Digimon illustration was a special one for me for different reasons. Firstly, obviously, Digimon! It was a show I grew up with, and I find it quite fitting that after a tough year of graduation movie under a pandemic, in which I really experienced the pain of growing up, I ended up finding back Digimon. 
Secondly, as a child, I remember spending HOURS looking for fanarts online! I would save all the ones I found pretty and keep them preciously, i still have the folders actually haha. While pursuing art, I always had in mind thatI wanted one day to make a fanart my child self would have gone crazy over! And, i think I achieved that with that one haha. 
Anyway LET’S START! Shall we? 
First off : the illustration process
Tumblr media
When I do an illustration I always do a quick draft first, and most of the time, in colors. I think I’m more of a “color” person than a “line” person, I tend to need to see colors quickly in order to see if it’s ok. 
For this one, I’ve always had in mind it would be a double illustration, with the older Tai’s silhouette acting as a frame for the children illustration. It was a bit tricky, I had to make the children illustration fit nicely into his silhouette, it was hassle around the neck area, that’s why I made little Taichi stand up haha. Also used Mimi’s hat to balance the picture : the bottom part is very heavy and there’s only sky in the upper part, adding the hat helps making it more balanced. 
Tumblr media
The character were the longest and the most challenging part by far. As you can see I had 3 different steps : super rough, they’re almost like stickmen and smiley face, a more detailled one in which I figure out their actual pose and anatomy, then a last one in which I fix some proportion, add details and clean. Fun fact I don’t clean over a new layer... i just erase the unwanted part of my sketch. :’D
Tumblr media
I did a quick pass over the BG after that, then I colored the characters in flat colors before rendering them. It was a back and forth between the BG and the characters to make sure everything was working together nicely. 
Tumblr media
Now was the time to render the BG, I did the tramway first, the flower field after. Fun fact, I did my flower field study in order to know how to approach the flowers in this illustration! If your have the time, i totally recommend finding a photograph close to the kind of BG you wanna do, and make a study of it so you can try your hand at it first and go into your own BG later with an idea of how to approach this.
Tumblr media
Adjust colors, add flower petals and butterflies and emotional text, slap over a paper texture, and THERE. You have it! On to the next part now...
The meaningful details and easter eggs
Be aware there will be spoilers for Digimon Adventure 01 (but I assume you already know it), but also for Digimon Adventure : Last evolution Kizuna, which is the conclusion of the first serie. So read at your own risk! 
Tumblr media
The tramway is obviously a reference to the end of Digimon Adventure 01. The kids used it to go back to their world, so It was their goodbye to their Digimon at this moment. In Kizuna, Tai and Matt find the tramway trapped in crystal in Menoa’s fake memory world. Hinting that had they been caught by her, their memories would have brought them back here.
Tumblr media
Tailmon has Kari’s whistle! At the end of Digimon Adventure 01, Kari gives it to her as a memento. 
Tumblr media
When I drew Sora, I had in mind how she was in Kizuna, very stressed out by her mom’s expectation, which led her to neglect Piyomon. She realized it too late, and after that she refused to fight because she wanted to keep Piyomon with her as long as possible. Tragically, she was the first one to lose her Digimon. Here I tried to convey a softness and a kind of “I won’t forget to appreciate you” vibe in the way she holds Piyomon’s hand. As for Mimi and Palmon, in Digimon adventure 01 Palmon was very emotionally affected by Mimi’s departure, so, a hug was fitting. :’) 
Tumblr media
The screens on the Tramway display DA for Digimon Adventure, and also 01.08.1999 which is the date of the children’s journey’s beginning. :) 
The little drawings also show the 8 crests. 
Tumblr media
There are butterflies flying over the illustration, it’s a reference to Butter-fly, the first Digimon opening, by the late Koji Wada. 
"I'll become a happy butterfly, and ride on the glittering wind, I'll come and see you soon. “
Now, let’s the see the counterpart of the illustration. The one with the grown up Tai from Kizuna.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I made him wear the hoodie he had in his very last adventure with Agumon.... but truthfully the reason is that I think hoodies are cool lol. And the hood’s volume gave me more space in the silhouette, which made it easier for me to do the other illustration inside.
Tumblr media
You don’t see it clearly, but he is holding his Digivice, albeit the darkened version once his partner bond with Agumon is broken. The Tai in this illustration has already lost Agumon. (Yes it was painful for me to go fetch the screenshots)
He is also holding his dear signature google he used to wear as a child. Fun fact, I rewatched the older movies, and as a kid he even used to sleep with it, how cute haha. 
Tumblr media
Also yes, the crest of Courage over his hand, which is his own. I’m so dumb I realize I should have made the time counter from the movie instead of the crest for a maximum emotional hurt impact. 
And the quote is from one of the trailer for Kizuna, I think.....................
But then you go : Oh that illustration is so depressing then! Well. Yes. But no. but yes. But not really. 
Tumblr media
One of my favorite shot of the movie is this one : this is after Tai and Agumon learn their time together is limited. Agumon asks him if they will have to go separate ways once Tai is all grown up. Tai doesn’t answer, and takes him to eat something instead, as Agumon was hungry. In this shot Agumon eats to his heart content next to Tai, who’s not eating at all and just watches him fondly. I love that the framing doesnt show agumon. It’s a foreshadowing of their unavoidable separation. 
At the very end of the movie, Tai write in his thesis about Human and Digimon’s relationship that Agumon was like a part of himself.
In a way, Agumon symbolizes childhood, the carefree days we would spend as a kid, with our big dreams and hopes. When you grow up, you tend to forget those simple emotions because you get swallowed into the stress of studies, figuring out your carreer, your life path. Just like us, Tai forgot this part of himself. In the madness of growing up, he lost Agumon. 
However, it’s not the end. He will pick himself back up. He will move forward in life despite his worries and incertainities, and he will find himself again. Therefore, he will find Agumon again. The kids in the illustration are waving goodbye, but it’s not goodbye, it’s a see you later.  In the meantime, Tai is holding on to these precious memories, until they meet again.

What if thoughts episode 2
Up until the end I actually, for thirty blissful minutes, forgot Chadwick isn’t with us anymore, and I just want to say thank you for giving us the best T’Challa we could have ever asked for. May he rest in peace🤍
I loved T’Challa and Yondu’s relationship. It all felt so heartwarming and so sweet🥺
Happy we got to see some more of Nebula rather than Gamora. Nebula’s always been the underrated one and the one who’d had the most trouble with Thanos
Speaking of which, I don’t even know what to say of his change of heart lmao. T’Challa did what the Avengers tried and all he had to do was talk it out with the man. Iconic.
That fight between the Order and Thanos was kinda ironic lol
TCHALLA DID THE BLACK PANTHER POSE WITH THE NAILS SCRATCHING THE GROUND AND THE OTHER HAND IN THE AIR READY TO ATTACK HAHDJDHDJS
Carina is still everyone’s hero😌
I loved the little parts in the music of both the Black Panther and Guardians soundtracks
Don’t know why Nebula needed hair… I guess Thanos hadn’t ‘deformed’ her that often yet for her to still be able to grow hair, but damnnnnn what kind of supermodel was she (hot ngl)
“Captain Genocide”
The collector literally had almost all the great weapons we’ve seen in the mcu (cap’s shield, hela’s helmet) makes me wonder what happened to them in that timeline
The Collector is, as always, a bitch, but a fashionable one
That last scene with Peter… Uatu said that that meant a lot of destruction. If Peter did not have the Guardians to save him, does he then even ever get saved?
“Cha-Cha” ✋🏻😭😭😭 her voice is literally so hsjsjsjshhdhshshs pls

I have racked my brain and i present you with another Musical!MC unintentionaly making chaos. (My target this time is the Heartslabyul, along with Chenya)
Musical!MC do this because there is a bet and Musical!MC need that money!!! (I personally think the bet involve MC sing a spicy song at the Heartslabyul dorm or at the Unbirthday Party or making Riddle red mad or singing that spicy song in front of Riddle, you can take your pick)
Do you know 'Queen of Hearts' by Luz? If you don't know, please check it out on youtube first.
Warning : the lyrics are spicy, in other words explicit. (I myself forgot about how non-children-friendly it is. Surprisingly there is a parental warning for the translated one)
So MC is singing this when Chenya happen to be sneaking into NRC to steal a cake, in front of our Heartslabyul bois and maybe the dorm's students too. (I want to rake in as many victim as possible)
Imagine this chaos where Musical!MC singing the spicy song along with their sexy expression and body gesture👄😈. (I won't write the lyrics, but i'll give some desc of what MC will do. I write it in a messy order okay. They always give 110% effort for every performance, can't accept less than perfect. The show must go on!!!!)
In the middle of singing, Musical!MC saw there is Chenya with his grin and all, so Musical!MC just approach him and trace his grin with their index fingers (like swipe their finger on his lip). Using that same finger, they place it on their own lips while giving seductive smile/smirk. (Ohohoho... Chenya, your body reappeared there. You need to be invisible if you want the cake.)
For Trey, Musical!MC just walk confidently with a lil sway at the hips towards him and moving their face really near at his face as if Musical!MC would kiss him, without losing their seductive smirk for the performance, but at the last second, Musical!MC pull his hat down between their and Trey's face, blocking that kiss. After that daring move, Musical!MC just turn their body around, leaving a red wide-eyed Trey behind, like the vixen role they are playing. But they do turn their head toward Trey, and giving him their seductive alluring smile with a finger touching their plump lips. (TREY! SNAP OUT OF IT! The cake will fall!!!!)
For Cater, Musical!MC just sit beside him and caress upwards of his arm with the tip of their fingers, (so like a ghost of touch, which probably can send down some shiver down the person back) when reaching his shoulder they caress/glide down and momentarily pause at the chest. Musical!MC who just see Cater with a side glance, fully turn their head to stare right into his eyes with their half-lidded eyes, still not forgeting their seductive smile. And their fingertips resume to glide down till their fingertip reach his thigh, which then they tap at the rhytmn of their singing. Musical!MC retract their arm back to themself before giving that Vil pose but, the smile is more alluring than his, it also give a different vibe. (Wow~ Cater, the fact that you are unfocused in recording is surprising😏)
For Ace, they just dance around him, then suddenly Musical!MC lean on him like inviting him to embrace them from behind. Before he can do that, they turn to look at him painting helplessness on their face like begging for help. Ace who is still flustered get another surprised, Musical!MC quickly go behind him, make him sit on of the chairs, encircle their arms around his shoulders and embrace him, their helpless face, which is beside Ace's face, turned into a mischiveous grin. (Oh dear, oh my, no smartass backtalk, Ace? Fufufufu...)
For Deuce, Musical!MC circles Deuce like a predator locking it prey and the gaze they give Deuce is also like one but more... passionate. Picking a rose that is for decoration, they step in front of him and the only thing that prevent both of them for kissing is that red rose, Musical!MC really doesn't let him to break their eye contact, not that he can, he is too bewitched by them. And then, they take Deuce hand and guide them to touch their exposed shoulder as if to seduce. They proceed to give a space between them, and let go of his hand, Musical!MC touch his face to make him see only them as if saying just give your heart to me. (Okay, i know that i said there will be no lyrics. But i need to make a point. Also, DEUCE!! DON'T GRIP THE TEAPOT TOO HARD OR IT WILL BREAK!!!)
For Riddle, Musical!MC bow before him, take his hand and kiss his hand, put one of their hand on their chest, like they would swear their loyalty and love to him. Even their expression is on point. If Musical!MC is a vixen who promised fake love to the others, it's the opposite for Riddle, they act like a loyal knight who only give their hearts to Riddle. But they still give that seductive smile to him and present him a tart as if they present their heart to him.
On the ending of performance, they present themself as if they are the Queen of Hearts from their song and act as if they are the leader of a banquet of madness. For the finishing number, Musical!MC give their seductive grin like a villain(ess) who won the war of love.
And also, in that middle of the performance, Musical!MC give a lot of seductive dance moves. The one that i want to highlight is where Musical!MC take off their jacket so that their shoulder is EXPOSED!!! They definitely do THAT shoulder moves from the dance cover.
I rest my case, Your Majesty. MUAHAHAHAHA... (not proofread, so it will be kind of messy)
Everything is a lil’ nsfw so beware to those brave enough to read lmao.
ESRGEONWINGNVEWIUH THIS IS PERFECT-
ESPECIALLY THE PART FOR RIDDLE AND CATER OMG-
Anon, I love you, thank you for bringing us this delicious food.
Imagine the next day after this whole fiasco the next time they bump into any of the heartslaybyul bois or even chenya they just smirk and do the ‘shh’ gesture while winking, and the boi just becomes flustered lmao. And to make it worse, MC would tease them with inside jokes throughout the day. Like if Ace gets splashed with water MC just leans close to whisper “You’re already this soaked, aren’t you?” and Ace almost tripped from both the water and MC’s words. Or when Trey starts to bake MC would remark “Oh my, a feast despite of even the lack of a birthday” And Trey almost dropped the cake batter if he didn’t recover sooner. Or like, let’s say that MC was roaming around the forest with Deuce or Chenya, and they managed to grab a hold of some honey. They shout out his name and go “If you want this nectar, then lick the dirt off my lap and show your sincerity.” and would cackle at their flustered face.
Even better, what they were caught slippin?
Like, after a dorm meeting Riddle was mumbling some lyrics and Leona overheard, causing to choke and sputter, while also looking at the other non-human dorm leaders to see if what he said was legit. Or Ace accidentally singing the chorus and Jade overherd, causing him to laugh and remark at how lewd the lyrics are. Both end up flustered and embarrased lol.
In short: Musical!MC being sneaky little menace they are and making everyone in the situation very flustered.

I had a dream last night that I had an unrequited crush on Shikamaru since forever but he and Temari had started dating.
(In the dream I had me and Shiki we’re walking and joking then Temari came over and then they went for dinner together. As Shikamaru’s friend I was like -arm punch- go on bro, have fun. And they walked away together leaving me feeling heartbroken, inadequate and inferior.)
You can do any scenario you want. I literally have an unrequited love playlist lol 😂❤️
oh anon, i've been there 😭 let us wallow in our unrequited love for Shikamaru together
~ Almost enough ~
(Shikamaru x fem!reader) angst // 1.7k words
Tumblr media
Ten years. An entire decade with Shikamaru by your side, getting into the carefree mischief that defined such childhood friendships and growing so close people were surprised to see one of you without the other. More than half of it spent trying to ignore the butterflies and daydreams that would force you to admit you wanted him to be more. In hindsight it seemed inevitable, the way he’d snuck into your heart before you could even notice. With his striking intelligence and those penetrating eyes, the way he so readily discarded his lazy demeanor and replaced it with hardened determination when his friends needed him — how could you not love him?
You accepted it too late though, spent too many months agonizing over how to tell your best friend that you were head over heels for him, and by the time you were finally brave enough to take the plunge and make your confession he had one of his own. That day was cemented in your mind now, a stinging reminder of your own inaction. Against your better judgement you drifted back into the memory...
It was beautiful out, the warm air offset by a gentle breeze that carried the spring blossoms through the wind as he sat across the shogi board from you, his sharp brow furrowed in concentration as he analyzed the pieces to determine his next move. One of the petals caught in his dark hair and your hand moved to brush it away, but before you could he sat back with a sigh, “Do you wanna do something else? I’m not really into the game.”
“Why? Because I’m winning?” you teased.
He rolled his eyes and cracked a small grin. “You’re only winning because I’m not giving it my all,” he objected.
“Sure, sure,” you threw a light punch at his shoulder and you both laughed. He looked so pretty when he laughed. Not the snarky chuckle he used so often in public, but this unapologetically cheerful one accompanied by a toothy smile that was so carefree and genuine it transformed his serious face into something softer, more innocent. The words never seemed easier to say than it that moment, and without your permission they slipped through your lips as the laughter died out.
“I love you.”
He didn’t even skip a beat, returning your confession with an eye roll and a gentle shove. “Shut up dude, I love you too. You’re my best friend, I don’t know what I would do without you.”
Your heart sunk a bit at his misinterpretation and you parted your lips to explain that yes, he’s your best friend too but he’s also so much more, but before you could he went on, “Speaking of love, I wanted to ask for some advice... about Temari.”
His eyes darted to his hands and a soft blush crept across his cheeks. You’d have thought he punched you in the stomach, not timidly asked for your help by the way your body tensed at his words. You didn’t know disappointment could feel so tangible until that moment, the way your stomach dropped to your feet and your hands went cold. “Temari?” you questioned, clearing your throat to rid it of the lump that had formed, “you love her?”
He jolted up and the red in his cheeks deepened. “Nono of course not!” he stammered, “I just… I like her a lot and like, you’re a girl right? How do I win her over?”
For the first time in your life you regretted being so close to him. Couldn’t he have gone to literally anyone else for help with this? Why did it have to be you? To him you were the only one he could approach about such an important topic. It wasn’t just because you were a girl that he asked, but because he valued your opinion above anyone else's. It was because even if it wasn’t the way you wanted, he wasn’t lying when he said he loved you too. So you pushed it all aside — all the heartbreak and sadness that threatened to overwhelm you — you buried it deep down inside for the sake of your friend, looking so nervous and vulnerable as he sat in front of you and put on a fake smile as you did your best to be what he needed in that moment.
“Well you’re a catch so it should be easy, but if you really want to impress her you should…”
“Hey! Are you even listening to me?” Shikamaru waved his hand in front of your eyes, pulling you out of your recollection and back to the present where you walked easily beside him through the streets, no real destination in mind.
You blinked a few times to reorient yourself and apologized with what you hoped was a reassuring smile, “Sorry, I’m just a little distracted today.”
He snickered, “Who has their head in the clouds now, huh?”
“You’ve been a bad influence on me,” you retorted with a smirk and he laughed.
“You’re probably right,” he conceded. “Hey, do you remember when we were kids and we would skip class to go cloud watching?”
He wore a thoughtful smile as he posed the question, his eyes lost in a content nostalgia. God, why did he have to look so damn perfect when he smiled?
You cleared your head and scoffed, “Of course. I still get grief from my mother about all the absence notes Iruka sensei sent home.”
He snorted, “You actually gave her those?! I always ripped mine up before she could see them,” his sentence trailed off into a laugh, one of those real ones that you lived for the sound of and you joined him, forgetting momentarily about your unrequited feelings.
But of course the moment ended much too soon. You noticed her at the same time he did, and you were glad the Nara man’s intense gaze was so singularly focused on the blonde woman ahead that he wouldn’t notice the way your face fell as your laughter cut off abruptly. She waved excitedly from her position a few blocks down and rushed towards you guys, her short pigtails bouncing behind her as she ran.
“Hey you guys!” she greeted the two of you excitedly as she arrived, giving Shikamaru a quick peck on the cheek, causing a small wince you hoped went unnoticed. “Ready for our date?”
“Shit! I almost forgot,” he palmed his forehead and turned to you apologetically, “we’re supposed to get dinner tonight, we have a reservation and everything. Sorry to leave you like this but we’ve gotta go.”
“No worries!” you flashed them a bright smile, one that was uncharacteristically wide in an attempt to compensate for your disappointment. “Go on and take your girl out. Have fun.”
You shoved him towards her lightly and Temari smiled, “Yeah! Listen to (y/n), she’s got the right idea.”
He looked at her the way you’d dreamed he would look at you and laced his fingers through hers, moving to lead her away in the direction of the restaurant. He looked over his shoulder and called back, “See ya tomorrow!” They both waved before turning back ahead, swaying gently as they matched each other’s steps.
“See ya…” you whispered to yourself, their shared giggles echoing off the buildings as they turned the corner and disappeared from your sight.
Nowhere else to go and not wanting to return to your empty apartment you turned to continue walking the sandy streets of the village and ponder. After a while you found yourself at a small pond, where you sat at the edge and peered into the calm water that reflected the crescent of the rising moon in it’s glossy reflection.
What was it about her? Why her and not you? Maybe it’s because she’s so beautiful, you thought forlornly as you traced the lines of your own plain features in the watery mirror below. You hit your hand over the surface to disturb the picture of yourself, water splashing back and mixing with tears that had started to fall on your cheeks.
That wasn’t it and you knew it. Shikamaru wasn’t that shallow. If he was this might be easier. He was with her and not you because she was perfect for him. Even you could admit that in spite of your own feelings she was his ideal match. He just lit up around her in a way that he never did when you were together, and as painful as that was there was an unselfish part of you that appreciated her for it.
You’d spent a lot of time trying to hate her. Trying to find a reason, any reason that they shouldn’t be together to justify telling him your truth and ruining it all — but you couldn’t bring yourself to do it. Underneath the hard exterior she really was kind, extremely so. She was more perceptive about matters of the heart than he was, and you suspected she knew of your true feelings for her boyfriend… but she never once made you feel bad about it or told him. Not that she needed to try to make you feel guilty, the feeling overwhelmed you everytime they were around, and even more so when it was just the two of you.
The small part that was left of you still concerned with self-preservation told you to cut them both off. To just stop answering his calls and disappear from their lives before you could slip up and lean in for the kiss you imagined millions of times. But he was addicting. No one else made you feel so at ease, made you laugh so joyfully except him. So you’d wade through the guilt and the knowledge that you were only hurting yourself just to spend a few minutes with him whenever you could, even if it meant watching him fall in love with someone else. Being his friend was enough. Almost.
