So a month ago I got slammed into a whole ‘nother rabbit hole…

I’m rarin’ to go! Been thinking of these fools for DAYS, had to attempt to draw them eventually! And of course I had to compare one of Zé and Donald’s moments to Baffy’s, them’s the rules.

Anyways!!! This December, I’m gonna aim to absorb more content of these three gay cabs from the comics. ‘ready watched Legend, and their classic films (though I’ll keep rewatching them). Ducktales 2017 is taking some time to finish so… *shrugs

Also also, if y’all got good songs that sound like the classic films, pls give recommendations!!!

whole saiki gang hanging out one day and then aiura gets a call from toritsuka and her and saiki go in another room and come out like five minutes later like "brb guys we have to pretend to be toritsukas parents and get him out of jail" and everyones like ????

Tried out some brushes, and also gave PK a braid because I thought that'd be fun

embarrassing

based on this tweet

am i just blorbo brainpilled to hell or does zote technically haunt the narrative if you leave him to die because of the glaring 'neglect' achievement you earn and how the pale beings did the same things to ghost and the vessels and therefore ghost can never be the same once it consciously decides to do that

Got bored while my power was out yesterday

(Alt text under the cut)

I very rarely draw my Hornet gijinka (which is a shame because I love her design) and on top of that I've NEVER drawn her with her father before (save for maybe like. One doodle from 3 years ago when I was figuring out how to draw HK characters). That's a tragedy that I had to fix

I think Hornet used to be very close to her father, a gigantic daddy's girl, before they drifted apart and she grew resentful and bitter over him with age

ID start: A doodle page of the Pale King and Hornet from Hollow Knigjt as humans. From left to right, top to bottom the doodles include; Pale King cradling baby Hornet, holding her tiny hand and kissing her cheek, squishing it a little, he's smiling wide and teary eyed. Baby Hornet holding her father's finger, sticking out her tongue a little. Pale King smiling at his teenage daughter and ruffling her hair. Pale King holding sleeping toddler Hornet close to his chest with a smile. Original bug version, Pale King scruffing baby Hornet in his mouth like a mother cat would a kitten. Pale King holding his young daughter and looking down at her with a warm smile as she holds his face with a bug grim on her face. Teen Hornet crying and hugging her dad as he comforts her. Original bug version, Pale King and Hornet gently bonking their heads together as he also rubs her horns. The entire doodle page has a warm colour to it, with a pink blush tint to the character's faces, hands and horns. End ID.

arisu knew saiki liked men all along

Been thinking about my experiences as a POC within fandom while also being an artist and how much that sucks sometimes. This is primarily in regards to the Redacted fandom, but could be applied to any other fandom honestly.

Proper "fussing" under the cut (for those who would rather not see):

Sometimes, I really stop and think about what it must be like to be a white person in fandom, especially when you're an artist. To see yourself reflected in the spaces you exist in all the time. There are some exceptions to this, of course. For example, lack of body diversity is just as much of a problem in my opinion (Like fat people exist. Disabled people exist. Fat, disabled people exist. You can draw them, y'know? /rhet) But generally speaking, it's not difficult to find designs that probably look like you. There will be blondes, brunettes, redheads even— It's everywhere you look.

I don't think most people realize how isolating that ends up feeling though.

Because it's not just the fact that most of the art/designs you'll stumble upon won't resemble you. It's the fact that the prevalence dictates how everyone else interacts with fandom too.

Do you know how much it sucks seeing a post saying "So we all agree that Asher's blonde, right?" and knowing that most people are thinking of a white guy and nothing else?

Or noticing how Alexis, a generally "hated" character in the fandom, is the only vampire most people are willing to make visibly brown?

How about the fact that Gavin, the "thrilling" and "sexy" incubus, has so many black and brown designs— But I can count the non-white Lasko designs I've come across on my hand?

People can do whatever they want. I've said it before, and I'll continue to repeat it when I make these rambles. If you want to make every single design you have varying shades of white and never stray from that, that's your prerogative. But for the love of god, I wish I didn't feel like I was fucking crazy for talking about how much that shit sucks to see as a person of color.

On top of that, do you know how frustrating it is to watch white artists get praised for generic diversity when POC artists have been consistently bringing forth such compelling, stunning designs to table? Like I see the kind of shit that gets praised in this fandom and what doesn't. Racial ambiguity or the slightest addition of a curl gets treated like it's revolutionary— And that's only if it's the "correct" character. It has to "make sense", right? The same way Sam has to have sun-kissed, golden skin even after he's been turned, or the way Guy has to be white because there's no way someone with that personality could be anything but.

Do you know what it's like to be filled with such a sense of joy because someone made a design where a character had your skin tone or hair texture or facial feature? Like, I genuinely have a strong reaction whenever I find a black or brown design in this fandom because they're so rare in comparison to everything else. And when I really stop to think about that, I realize how fucked up of a phenomenon that is.

I love the designs that I've made, but I've also noticed which ones "do better" comparably. I don't change much of anything with how I go about posting or promoting them. The only difference is that some of them fit what is considered widely "canon" in fandom. And the others... don't. I go out of my way to make every design POC in some regard, and you can usually tell visually even without the addition of colors. I'm not gonna stop doing that because I know why I started in the first place. But fuck, it does start to hurt seeing white artists with the same general white designs get hyped up endlessly while I internally debate if I should even make another character look like me or not. If it'll even matter to anyone but me.

Some days, I just really wish it didn't feel like shit being black in this fandom. I hate knowing that I'm gonna post this, and I'll probably get responses for other people of color primarily.

But maybe putting this out will help that pill get easier to swallow.

Textposts that are very Grimm x FPK core to me:

i’m gonna get over this some way, though at the moment i don't know how

being plural is so funny like "oh you've been having constant breakdowns the past few days?? ok well here's blorbo from your music. Right in your head now. have fun!"
