WAIT I ACCEPT THIS AS CANON bc imagine he like lightly brushes her waist and suddenly they're both on the ground bc of sheer panic <///3 adrinette at its finest - @zodoods (my main will show up on asks so im here as an anon <///3)
RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT -> its one thing for him to casually hold her hand, get Close, even HUG or whatever else is going on in that point in canon. BUT HIM ALL PRESSED UP AND WRAPPED UP AGAINST HER???? when she has to KEEP HER EYES ON THE ROAD and DRIVE???????????????!!?!!?? oh homegirl will not handle that well. not on a consistent basis definitely. and isnt it so fucking cute. it would make adrien so happy too like. she’d be SO apologetic about it the first few times she nearly caused an accident but him essentially finding out ‘my girlfriend has such a huge crush on me that she can barely operate this scooter when i hug her on it’ would make him go 😍😍😍😍😍😍 like feel SO happy and SO lucky because the prettiest most CAPABLE most WONDERFUL girl in the world falters for HIM…. like yeah bro i WOULD flirt with her on Hacked Live News if i knew that

now one cares if ur mom loves you soooo muc and u love her soooo much and ur omg arent mothers soo great always bs. shut up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#(BEING VERY PETTY BC MINE SUCKS SO FUCKING MUCH)#but also if i have to see the post bieng like 'oohh imagine sweet nothing with how your mother always loves u unconditionly' everywere#(which good 4 u stop acting like thats the universal experience for everyone it fucking isnt)#then you all have to deal with me platonic-fing it and making it abt friendship. sucks to suck loser !!!!#like what if the soul deconstructers *are* my parents in my experience. what then bitch !!#sorry im rly just annoyed abt that one post bc i feel like theres an obsession among swifties to only every understand each song in a way#that like. does or cld fit within her life instead of relating it to ur own experince esp in regards to them all being abt romance#like ppl being like 'i cant believe ppl think x song cld count as a platonic love song when its obvs abt romancce'#or not understanding how the emotions expressed in a song abt a traumatic break up could also be related to other trauma#including trauma inflicted by a parent/friend/ any other relation someone cld have to someone#but the one time !! relating one of her songs to smth other than roamnce is acceptable to swifties its the stupid fucking#'ohh my mom is soo great shes the best' bs thats a sure fire sign the person saying it will never take anyone whos been mistreated#by the parents serious and just respond w 'but its ur momm u have to love her bc shes ur mommm :((((('#sorry ik im being needlessly bitter which sucks bc i have a a good point here like can we just let ppl relate to songs in whatever way they#want to and not care abt their being a 'defnitive' meaning to the song bc the whole point of art esp music is how YOU relate to it#also like. that post isnt bad at all its acutally completely fine im just bieng dumb and projecting ig bc i feel like the emotions of ppl#whos parents were good to them r always taken more seriously like. if i made a post talking abt relating the 'give me back my girlhood' lin#to my experince w my shitty parents i feel like it wldnt be taken as seriously as this 'uwu i love my momm' bs yk. anyway maybe im wrong !!#who knows !!!!! maybe i shld try to talk abt how i relate her songs to my personal experinces more#also i am being rly dumb sm bc ik other ppl have spoken abt relating her songs (esp mtr and tolerate it) to shitty parnets but iv also seen#ppl treat that like its dumb which is stupid !!!!! who cares !!!! ur being a dick let ppl relate music to whatever experiences they want !!#anyway. i think i seem more pissed her than i actually am im just annoyed bc this is a pet peeve of mine lol#flappy rambles

pixels [newt x reader - modern text au]
ch. 1 - the gc birth
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
in which two online friends navigate a romance through a minecraft groupchat with their stupid friends

warnings: strong language, mutual pining, none really.

Can I request the 2018 turtles w a artist reader who’s just obsessed w art. Like to the point where it’s always brought up at some point during a long convo and if u enter their room u just see it littered w art supplies and paintings they made + 50 sketchbooks
Bonus points if they’re also just as obsessed with music
Ty also I’ve been eating up ur writing for DAYS it’s so good ldmdkjdoshf /pos
AHAKWJEB THANK YOU YOU HAVE NO CLUE HOW EXCITED I GET WHEN PEOPLE SAY THEY LIKE MY WRITING-
Tumblr media
2018 BOYS AND AN ARTIST READER:
....................................
Holy shiz you and Mikey are artist BESTIES-
Always hanging out and sketching each other and anyone else in the immediate area.
Also minor major vandalism.
If spray paint isn't your thing, you're in charge of the tunes.
Your chaotic mess has Donnie in a whirlwind everytime he see's your room.
Always asking how you can even find anything.
You just shrug and say something like, "I just can."
You guys bond over your mutual love for music though,
Jam sessions are like a ritual between the two of you.
Leo's always asking you to draw/sketch him in quote unquote, "Awsome poses".
He's such a fuckin' dork /aff.
And he likes to flip through your sketch books when yall hang out if you'll let him.
Raph is constantly complementing your art like the big brother he is.
Asks if he can hang some of them up next to Mikey's,
Even keeps some art peices in his room.
Whenever he hangs one up he always steps back and looks at it like a proud dad.
They love your art, and are very vocal about it, always complimenting it lolzies!
....................................
I AM SO SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG FOR ME TO FINISH THIS BUT HERE-

hq headcanons with gyaru s/o?? PLS IM BEGGING tysm!!!!
ギャル! ���かわいいー (gyaru! chou kawaii ー !)
Tumblr media
ft oikawa; suga; bokuto; hinata; tsukki
oikawa:
obsessed! asks u to send pics of ur new manicure designs, knows ur manicurist by first name, sends her his love every time u go
chides you not to spend too long tanning cause the uv isn't great for your skin but loves how u look; tells u that it makes your eyes stand out and your hair look nice and has mastered the art of taking selfies from that #45degreetopdown angle
has a pic of u as his phone bk bc this man is whipped and he's not afraid to admit it; will buy you trinkets and hair clips and earrings or send u pics of cute ones sees
always holds ur hand in public and brags about u to his friends u__u
sugawara:
kisses you with your flavored lipgloss bc he is an agent of chaos and he likes the way he can mess you up a little; he's secretly not so secretly super happy that u have a whole string of phone charms that are just presents from him -- tiny volleyballs, bejeweled cupcakes, random little animals, a giant fluffball just cause it's soft
helps u pick out circle lenses cause he thinks they're so so pretty and can't stop staring at your eyes whenever u wear a new pair
honestly kinda fell for u the first time he saw you cause of the way you tied up ur school uniform shirt and he caught a glimpse of your bellybutton ring and thought it was like... the hottest thing ever but;;;; we don't have to talk about that
tells u every day how beautiful you are, just bc u__u
bokuto:
honestly doesn't rly get it but boi if he aint supportive! and he cares so much; will sit and listen intently to u when ur talking about all the different clothing brands u like or ponder out loud how ur so good with ur hands cause if he had nails like urs he'd break them immediately
would let u paint his nails in glitter tho
will tell u just to go outside w/out sunscreen if u wanna tan more (like him!!!) but after u tell him about uv and sun protection now he actively slathers sunscreen on himself before going outside and preaches it to all his friends and teammates ("akaashi! did u kno it causes premature aging of the skin!??!! wait -- what do u mean everyone knows that?!")
loves your weekend outfits so much u__u honestly he's shooketh at your eye for style, thinks you should become a fashion designer, a model, actively advertises to the world that you already are one basically; swells!!! with pride when someone on the street asks to take a pic of your outfit -- "see?!?!? told u u should be a model!!! ur pics belong in magazines!!!"
hinata:
is just so so awestruck at all the sparkly/pretty things; and you're the sparkliest, prettiest of all so i mean -- that tracks!
gets just as excited as you do about new clothing lines and is super eager to spend entire weekends walking through various shops, carrying all your stuff, praising the way you look in every single outfit u try on
the blushiest!!! if u dress him up too so you guys match! holds your hand so tightly and can't stop grinning to himself so that at the end of the day his cheeks hurt but that's okay bc he got to spend the whole weekend w/ you and he wants to do it again all the time!
loves ur long nails bc it feels nice when you trail it along his arms, down his back; it makes him feel loopy and sleepy and shivery and all sorts of good, and on top of that -- they're just gorgeous to look at arent they? everything about u is gorgeous and he's so, so glad to have u
tsukki:
will never admit it outloud that he actually likes it; pretends it's just another level to all the "girly things" that normal girls like -- so u like more of it -- so what
but BOI if he doesn't feel his chest get all tight when you get all dressed up for your dates, when your lashes are perfectly mascaraed to set off those gorgeous new circle lenses u bought the other day that he totally, totally isn't into cause that color is just so pretty against your skin --
constantly tells u that ur nails are kind of a hassle and he doesn't understand how u get anything done with them but will wait for u outside ur salon with ur bags and grab u icecream and sigh and begrudgingly admit that the nail art is cute this time...
is secretly super fucking into the fact that u have a pic of the both of u has ur phone background and it makes him happy every single time ur phone goes off and the screen lights up; and yeah, the fact that you have a volleyball phone charm that you told him reminds you of him makes him rly, rly happy too u__u

I KNOW YOU'RE OBSESSED WITH ACE BUT DO YOU HAVE ANY SNAKE LOVE PLZ I'M SO OBSESSED W HIM AND UR ART/HCS/E.T.C. ARE ALWAYS SO GOOD FISNDJSJSJ
THANK YOU yaaaa I do have some thoughts about Snake HERES SOME ART I JUST MADE its him sleeping curled up like a snake and then yassified wolf cut Snake for no reason idk I just felt like it
Tumblr media Tumblr media
anyway I think Snake has a pretty important role in the gang it seems like he's kind of the right hand man and probably also the brains AND he knows how to operate heavy machinery so I think maybe when they're all older he's like their getaway driver. AND... maybe when they're at the arcade he likes those racing games with the wheel built in u know... hm I can't think of any specific headcanons rn but you can go through my [the gangreen gang] or [snake ppg] tags if you wanna see more about him... beware tho you might get jumpscared by old art

what would be ur ideal casting for gleathers?!
- warblercore <3
OKOK SO. vino opened my eyes to mercedes!veronica art but my initial idea for it has always been tina?! mostly because she seems to wanna fit in to kind of an obsessive amount, although a majority of that is just shown in the background of the first 3ish seasons of glee, up until she sorta snaps & then we’re in s4 and she’s suddenly WAYYY different, you know?
i know veronica didn’t necessarily wanna fit in but she wanted to fit in well enough that people stopped bothering her (<- musical. in the movie she just Joined the most powerful clique so i assume her need to fit in is just like implied w that! so!!! that’s very tina. to me. cuz we also never rlly see tina’s snaps, her changes, etc.)
and now, i will answer the question for real. onto my dream cast !!!!
veronica sawyer- tina
jd- mike probably?!
heather chandler- quinn fabray obviously (which also this makes for AMAZING quinntina tension in this au)
heather duke- santana
heather mcnamara- brittany (something something mcduke or whatever their ship name is… that could be a thing with tension as well amen ❤️)
martha- no idea. mutual said rachel so i think. rachel
kurt and ram- puck and artie probably 💀💀💀
i can’t think of the other characters but probably every glee character is there just like in the background. i love that for them
and also the end message here: i can yurify anything

hewwo anj!!!! I was reading your post on how you break down arthur's likeness and how you study/what you noticed for him body language wise, how his facial features are, etc. and if that's possible, would you ever do the same for merlin? Regardless, thank you for ur merlin art ily ❤️🫶
sorry i took forever to get to this fyscka!! i got real busy lmao. anyways thoughts abt it under the cut
once again going to try not to sound weirdly obsessive abt this stuff because it sounds more insane when i put all the details into words when they just like. exist as nebulous thoughts in my brain. idk anyways
more tracing because tracing is good for figuring things out.. also fun. when you trace things a bunch for practice you pick up on the repetition like. how someone's face looks with different movement and the overlap between them. like how similar a happy expression can be to an aggressive expression and how similar an aggressive expression can be to a terrified one. if that makes sense
Tumblr media Tumblr media
it is interesting too with merlin because he varies a lot over the seasons? not just with being yknow. older. like hes thinner in s2-4 than s1+5, and we all know how much his haircut varies. i dunno i just think facially he varies a lot more than arthur
Tumblr media
sorry again for crunchy images heres a few specifics i tend to notice
when hes fighting or putting in a lot of physical strength/effort his mouth pulls up high and his nose scrunches which causes a crease from the corners of his nose. same crease as you would see when he smiles, but since the nose is scrunched the part of the crease next to the nose is more prominent. usually when i see people scrunch their nose like that it wrinkles on top of the bridge but his seems to wrinkle more at the sides. also eyebrow furrow very important
hes got a very strong chin its rather large and squared off. his eyes and the folds beneath his eyes crinkle a lot when he smiles. the smile lines appear with a point to them. also hes got a very prominent adams apple
low eyebrows, widest at their arch which is more lateral. ill talk more abt his teeth in a minute but hes got the american girl doll teeth when his lips are parted lmao
his eyes are pretty deep set, so when you see him in profile theres a good bit of distance between the bridge of his nose and his eye. when his hair is longer the hair around his ears tends to curl towards his face. same w the hair on his neck. his nose has a pretty subtle bump to the bridge and then the tip turns up a bit, but overall Not an upturned nose
his ears stick out we know this..... you can see the contrast of the hollow of his cheeks vs his mouth muscle sometimes (usually more in s2+3). his nose is in a pretty neutral position here
as opposed to this one where his nose broadens a little with his smile. smile lines again pretty triangular.
faces are soft and when one feature moves usually the others slightly move/change with it. some other things are teeth which i meant to talk abt in the arthur post too, but yeah. merlin's got pretty prominent front teeth, and arthur's got his one crooked canine. hair also is (at least to me) pretty important... his hair is always cropped above the eyebrows and imo he's less recognizable as merlin if its not. its not especially fluffy or curly either. not to say he cant be drawn with different haircuts haha, sometimes it just makes him a little harder to recognize
Tumblr media
again body shape + language is just as important is not more so, bc we're drawing a character not an actor!! theres a few things i think about w merlin
- hes pretty thin with the exception of s5, but always pretty lanky lookin - just generally pretty angular? idk - he is somewhat broad but the slouching and not being shredded (usually) tend to negate that a little - he crouches a lot or pulls his legs up when he sits (hes so real for that) - when hes not using his hands they tend to just be at his sides, when he's standing he'll put them behind his back sometimes, when talking he'll gesture with them usually around his head or hip/waist level - he slouches more than arthur, his shoulders are usually somewhat forward - when he's confused or teasing often he'll push his head forward - tilts his head a lot when hes teasing or happy or confused - draws his shoulders up to his ears when he's uncomfortable, confused, or frightened - whereas arthur moves very purposefully, merlin moves in a way that just looks like he has a lot less spatial awareness idk a better way to describe it lmao. like u know hes clumsy even when he's not actively being clumsy
honestly i dont tend to put too much detail in faces because i dont draw in a very realistic style so i tend to lean more into shapes and body language to make characters recognizable, but knowing how the face works still plays into it a lot?
anyways i hope this makes at least a little sense lmao
