after a brief hiatus, Ad Astra Per Aspera has a whole new (short) chapter up as of THIS MORNING! >> there won't be a big tumblr post with every page this time (because formatting it would be annoying) so please go check it out on its neocities page! <<

and since I already announced it there: updates should be monthly consistently from now on- barring anything weird coming up in my life, which is always possible.

Hi! I ADORE your osemanverse art. Have you read the short stories on Alice Oseman’s website? I just read party girls and was wondering if you’d draw Becky and Raine. 🥰

thank you!!!! oh my god becky and raine...... i have drawn them in the past, but that was literally ages (i think 6 years now) ago, so here is a small updated doodle just for you <3 i will love those party girls forever

in distress. stuck in universe city. send help.

last drawing for ace awareness week! i always say that aled last is so gender but i am also enthralled by their hints of demisexuality throughout heartstopper/radio silence and the fruition of it in his coming out scene with daniel. love aspec representation in the osemanverse, ty alice <3

cosmic harbingers!pearl brainrot YET AGAIN. i literally cannot stop thinking about her!!!!!! an official-ish ref for her outfit and a very old WIP piece that I’m not gonna get round to finishing. I will do some complimentary grian drawings some time! I hope!

I’ve also been thinking a little bit about false’s design and much less on martyn’s but! They both have a solid place in the AU (mumbo too! gem also a little!) and have their own plots sort of worked through. subject to change since this AU has flipped its vibe like 3 times since I first started it.

little thing of mendel :^)

i know i've already said it, and not too long ago at that lol, but it bears repeating that tsuna is just so down to earth. and just so humble when it comes to the things he wants out of life and from other people around him. but also so earnestly and wholly appreciative of every little humble things he does get as if it's the greatest treasure. and that's the best thing about him and his best quality btw.

tsuna looks at all those mafia and civilian kids (well mostly kids you know) who've been beaten bloody and broken by the world and at others' hands alike, who've twisted themselves and stretched themselves thin until they cracked and broke so to meet others' expectations of them as well as their own, and again and again he just goes "hey. chill. power of friendship. love. i know it's been so hard and you've been trying for so long and giving it your best. you're doing so great, have always been. i know it's been so painful. let's have snowball fights and watch fireworks and play games at my place together, and make the world not as big and scary and lonely anymore that way. rest. take a break. heal. you're enough, this is enough. the present moment right now is for you to enjoy too. i love you."

and like. if he was real, me, too, would love him so much and would be ready to follow him to the ends of earth for that too in a heartbeat

Frances: hey Raine, how long do you think it will take until i start hallucinating from sleep deprivation?

Raine: i think-

Aled: 72 hours.

Frances: how do you-

Aled: there’s a clown right behind you, Frances

characters who are so nonbinary-coded a good chunk of the fandom just uses they/them pronouns for them my beloved

the pain of having to watch people with the EXACT SAME INTERESTS not be mutuals/friends with you.

this page makes me so happy for no reason
