That omake of little Kabru not being able to show off his howetown sweets because of Misril gets to me a lot so...

Here's a happier Kabru (and Lairu)

#kabru #lairu #labru #laios #dungeon meshi #my art #my fanart #fanart #idk why i resort to fluffy fanart even tho i keep thinking and seeing gag/hornt lairu stuff #kabru is just so.. fascinating and actually endlessly tragic #i kinda like that ryoko kui doesnt try to over-explain or dramatize her characters that have tragic backstories. it makes her world that-#-much more believable and realistic. that being said i will devour more kabru stories from her #i kinda cant stop thinking abt kabru (and to an extent lairu)#ik in Lairu/Labru fanart Kabru is usually depicted as humorously in denial guy #but i see it everywhere and it made me think more of their more understanding phase in the epilogue #maybe laios is ooc here but i think he will also warm up to human connection now that he actually has people he cares abt around him #(and maybe because kabru is teaching him tips and trick to be a Normal Guy lmao)#im also not very good at humor so theres only so much i can do with gag lairu 😂

wanted: marine hunter takanome mihawk

#shanks: oh i want him alright #dracule mihawk #takanome mihawk #one piece #one piece fanart #op fanart #i accidentally went way extra on this than i intended to 💀 i got bored waiting for my brother + my phone was charging #it was just supposed to be a b&w sketch with his eyes yellow or red but it got out of hand when i was like 'maybe i'll do skin for funsies'#ah well. im really starting to get into painting with this one brush. one day i'll merge it with the style i use more #cuz rn i tend to break out the painting only when i wamt smth a liiiiittle👌 more realistic.#i stress that 'little' bc calling my style 'realistic' in any sort of way feels inaccurate lol #i digress #i love imagining marine hunter mihawk being some teenage punk between the ages of 17 and 23 #idk when he became a warlord but if he had this epithet even before roger's death that would put him in mid-to-late teens #since at roger's execution he was 19 amd already had yoru #so it's kinda funny to imagine the marines being hunted by some teenager with dramatic sideburns and an even more dramatic sword #last post of the year! :)#i had no chill this month. pls dont expect anything on my blog again till march lol.#(im half-serious; im going on vacation for all of february and i have some prior pieces i need to focus on in jan haha. we'll see tho!)

Obscura is weirdly high stakes for a visual novel. Most vn's the end you get is an accumulation of the decision you make, Obscura? Make one wrong choice and you're DEAD.

Anyway, in unrelated news, I've somehow managed to get the bad end in 3 out of 4 of Obscura's routes. Whoops.

#obscura vn #save me keir #you're the only one who loves me #fransesco's bad end was the worst #i finally poked my head into the aftercare menu for that one #big yikes #that said it kinda interesting the system they've chosen #some people may not like it #but it's cool looking back and being able to see the exact moment you messed up #whereas in arcana when i got julian's bad ending #i had no idea how i got there #also it's oddly realistic #sometimes one bad decision is all it takes to mess up a good thing

I have conflicted feelings about the FNAF series in general, but seeing a movie where practical animatronic puppets are the primary focus of the film becoming not only financially successful but also well received by general audiences is pretty damn neat.

#five nights at freddy's #fnaf #fnaf movie #jim henson #halloween #the animatronics look genuinely so good #not only are they extremely faithful to the video game designs #but they also have such a great range of emotion and expression #the horror aspect of them isn’t overstated too much either #like so many horror puppets especially in the 2000s/2010s were very… in your face about the fact they were horror monster #like with a lot of grime and low saturated palettes and such #Idk I think horror puppets are better when they look kinda superficially not scary until they’re placed in the right context #like it would’ve been very easy to make the fnaf animatrocis look quote on quote realistic and grimy and obviously unsubtly horror-y #but they actually look like kids animatronics #like there are creepy aspects #like how tall they are or thier uncanny animatronic movements #but for the most part they literally do just look like chuck e cheese esque animatronics #thier creepiness has actual subtly #they’re endearing when they want to be and terrifying when they need to be #just very solid designs overal

botw nostalgia is going to be incredible. its already built around feelings of melancholy and grief and memories of things that will never be the same again

#i know its like. been out for seven years. which is realistically long enough to get nostalgia going for itself #but the only time i stopped playing it since i got it in 2020 was to play totk #and then we lent it to somebody and havent got it back yet so technically i havent played it at all in more than a year which is insane #feel like shit just want her back #but anyway. im listening to fanmade night ost for a bunch of botw tracks that dont have night versions #and this feeling feels suspiciously like nostalgia #fkjsdbfjhfbasjfd #idk #i love totk but i kinda miss when it was just botw ya know #loz #botw #totk #breath of the wild

a quick sketch inspired by a very old fanfic about Remus writing poems about Sirius' bits i just randomly remembered today... unfortunately the fic (more like a poem collection) was in Hungarian only and it's so old that it's now lost forever🤷🏻‍♀️

also tagging @plecotusauritus to help her preach the freckled Sirius agenda

#sirius black #wolfstar #fanart #art by lau #lau draws with a tablet #is it too obvious i used my own face as a reference for this?...#im not saying that i am this hot im not vain enough for a statement like that #but i just see too much of my own features in this and idk if its only me or others can see it too?#i mean i just wanted to kinda “realistically” emphasize the semi-asian features a bit with the shape of his eyes and his cheekbones #ANYWAYS #trying to find the fic i mentioned above i just found out that another decades old wip fic got updated recently lol brb reading

Thinking about the age gap between Tyril x elf!MC.

Thinking about how Tyril is the elven equivalent of 25 even though he's about 75 actual years old.

Thinking about how we don't know how old MC is but we do know that they are within two years of Kade's age (or even the same age—I think I found an inconsistency) and that the two of them were orphaned and subsequently adopted about 20 years ago, which MC says is as long as they remember (despite the fact that on more than one occasion MC has mentioned remembering their parents, most notably in b2 they mention remembering their parents' teachings, which means MC wasn’t an infant when they were killed).

Thinking about how Tyril said MC is young for an elf.

Thinking about how by elven standards, 20 human years makes one "very small" (equivalent of a 6 y/o).

Thinking about how elven years must work very oddly because if their average lifespan is 300 years, then an elf who is 30 (random guesstimate for MC—they're likely a little bit younger) would be the equivalent of 10, which tracks with the "very small" comment, but which would not make MC the adult they very clearly are (and keep in mind that elves reach maturity at 50, which would be the equivalent of 16 in human years).

And also thinking about how I either have MC's backstory mixed up or there are some small inconsistencies that make it very difficult to tell but even disregarding the math above, the best I can reason is that Tyril is one of those dudes in their 20s who goes after the barely legal teenagers 😬

#playchoices #blades of light and shadow #tyril starfury #tyril x mc #btw before anyone hits me with the 'it's fantasy it's not that deep' I'm doing this for FUN (and procrastination)#definitely not shading Tyril either I've just been interested in this for a while and it's kinda funny to me with the numbers laid out #I wonder if their relationship is immoral by elven standards considering MC isn't technically 'legal'#realistically based on their maturity level an elf!MC ought to be in their 60s but they prioritized making MC and Kade contemporaries in ag #the only other option is that when elf!MC talks about their age they automatically talk in equivalents #so if they mention something from when they were 16 they were actually 50 when it happened #but considering that they are culturally human (completely detached from their elven culture and heritage) I very much doubt that #and elves don't talk in equivalents either anyway

Arlecchino's whole deal is unbelievable

Arlecchino: Huh I wonder what's causing my weird powers? I can't really worry about that right now tho, I've gotta become King and then kill my "Mother".

*Kills Clervie and "Mother"*

Arlecchino: Huh I wonder why I was able to defeat a Fatui Harbinger when I'm like 17 or so? I can't really worry about that right now tho, I've gotta be in jail and become a Harbinger.

*Is in jail for a while and becomes a Harbinger*

Arlecchino: Huh I wonder why I am-

Pierro: Hey what's up hello, anyways you're descended from the Crimson Moon Dynasty of Khaenri'ah. I'm sure that this is a lot for you to take in so-

Arlecchino: Ok.

Pierro: ...You're just cool with that?

Arlecchino: IDK maybe? I can't really worry about that at the moment, I'm a father now. This orphanage full of children I love (who also are child soldiers and are not allowed to leave or else I'll execute them except maybe now I'm just gonna wipe their memories IDK I'm morally complex) isn't gonna run itself.

*Runs the orphanage/spy recruitment initiative*

Me, the fucking player: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ARE KHAENRI'AN? WHY WASN'T THIS BROUGHT UP IN YOUR FUCKING QUEST?? OR ANYTHING ELSE????

Arlecchino, talking to me through my phone: I honestly don't know why you care, I'm too busy to give a shit. Anyways, I'm gonna go fight fate itself I guess. I'm sure that I don't share any thematic parallels with any other Khaenri'an characters (particularly as it relates to acting and family angst) and that I haven't made the idea of 'curses' on Khaenri'ans and what they entail even more complicated than they already were. See ya.

#arlecchino #genshin impact #pierro #WHY IS THE GAME FUCKING GLOSSING OVER THE FACT THAT SHE IS KHAENRI'AN?!#Not only that but she is the first Khaenri'an we've met (that we know of) who's from the Crimson Moon Dynasty #I'm so fucking confused #Did Celestia place a DIFFERENT curse on members of the Crimson Moon Dynasty?? Or is this stuff all of them can do???#HELP #She also seems almost...uninterested in the fact that she's descended from Khaenri'ah. Which honestly I think is interesting.#I don't know if I like it yet but when every other Khaenri'ah character has one of their major traits being that they super fucking #care that they are Khaenri'an (whether that be Kaeya with his paranoia/destiny/duty or Dain with his guilt over his failure/desire to #prevent our sibling from fucking with anything too much or whatever the fuck is going on with Pierro)#having a character who is Khaenri'an but doesn't seem to particularly be invested in that part of themself is different #she cares more about the curse and its effects on her then she ever really cares about the Crimson Moon Dynasty or the cataclysm #IDK I think it's neat from a character writing angle. or at least it has the potential to be if the writers do a good job.#But from a 'I like maybe 3 things in this game and one of them is Khaenri'ah' perspective it SUCKSSSSS #That part of the plot is already suffering from chronic live-service storytelling disease where people just straight up don't tell you #shit that they logically SHOULD BE TELLING YOU because the game needs to save plot points to build hype around #so for one of like 4-ish (depending on how much we count Albedo) Khaenri'an major characters to give us literally 1 and 1/2 voicelines #kinda sucks ngl. but again it's also interesting and realistic for Arlecchino and from that angle I like it #she doesn't care about what fate says her place in the world is. she's gonna carve her own and being Khaenri'an isn't relevant to #the life and identity she has built for herself. she isn't the type to look for answers she doesn't need. she's practical and efficient.#at the very least it's better than when Albedo 'I want to find all the world's truths' Kreideprinz doesn't let the audience in on his stuff

Falin panel in my style

:D I suddenly felt compelled to redraw the panel. Miss Touden you are my muse

Lineart + original panel under the cut

I mean, look at the improvement from one drawing to the other, Ryoko Kui’s art makes me think hard about anatomy + physics and it feels really good to draw :3

\/ original panel!

#I <3 Faligon #This was actually so much fun but it had me searching up weird stuff like ‘human vital points’ and ‘how to draw realistic boobs’#I still have the child safety thing on my iPad so it was hard to find 😭#Had a lot of fun with the ripping fabric! It felt very instinctual and kinda just like scribbling #A lot of people who have been reblogging my stuff lately have been copying all of my tags. Like not just the general/organisation ones #So can you stop doing that :) thank you :)#It’s when someone reblogged it copying me talking about my crush? Or something personal? It’s really odd to copy them 1 for 1…#Falin Touden #My art #Dunmeshi #Dunmeshi fanart #Dungeon Meshi #Dungeon meshi spoilers #Dungeon Meshi fanart #Falin #Farlyn Thorden #Falin fanart #Blood #cw blood #I drew more stab points then are in the panel because Kabru stabs her 3 times (not counting the neck) in the lungs kidney and heart #But only 2 of those are visible in the panel? The lung puncture is missing so I decided to add it #gore #I mean it’s fairly mild #I cannot draw wings for the life of me thank you Ryoko Kui for helping lol #Faligon

[Start ID. A digital drawing of Minos Prime from Ultrakill, who's wearing a strapless slit dress and sandals of the same deep purple. He faces towards and slightly to the right of the camera, his head is tilted further right. With one hand he gestures in a vague pointing motion, his arm folded and held close to his body. There is nothing in the background, but bracing himself on one arm, Minos is implied to be leaning against something about the height of a countertop. The background is a blank purplish black, save for three diagonal stripes in the colors of the bisexual flag. End ID]

Shading study that quite literally came to me in a dream two weeks ago, after this post apparently beamed itself into my mind

(also a few edits below the cut! they're very slight but whatever :])

[Start ID. Three different versions of the previous drawing. The first changes the tone of the lighting from blue to pink, and similarly the shading from pink to blue. The second replaces the faint black border with pink, purple and blue, syncing with the stripes in the background. The third combines both these changes. End ID]

#the tags got NERFED so let's try this again.#peridots-art #minos prime ultrakill #ultrakill #ask to tag #organs #...? gore maybe? for the whole ''transparent chest/visible cardiovascular system'' thing. not very detailed/realistic though so #i don't think this has all of the same charm as i usually find in my posts. but i tried my best to make it work so i don't think it matters #also ''not too happy with how this turned out'' is something i've seen tacked onto posts worthy of being preserved in museums #i heard someone say his snakes should be ball pythons. i'm not autistic about snakes so i decided to listen to the masters #i still have seven levels to p-rank before i can meet this guy!! halfway there (lust/greed and 1-3 remaining) i've only had my own copy #of ultrakill for a week and i already have 33 hours in. anyway he's grown on me i think. absolute bi king and only monarch i respect <3 #i think it's interesting how i now define my queerness by being gray-ace and trans when i first only identified with bisexual. it's still #an important part of me even if sometimes i forget. sorry that sounds completely unrelated but it's related to my feelings on this piece #anyway (i wonder how many ''anyway''s i've slapped on so far) i also find it interesting how often people draw him with this body type.#i think it's cool there's variety in how people draw the uk characters. it just kinda feels right here? i know i unfortunately don't draw #fat characters often at all (partially due to being a primarily fandom blog who likes to stick to canon designs. i wouldn't say i have #trouble with drawing a realistic amount of fat even on rather thin people though lol) but i try! also genuinely unsure what counts as like.#fat vs chubby? or whatever? i don't know exactly how the terminology works and a fair amount of minos' bulk is muscle anyway but. yeah 👍#men are pretty in dresses my final message. goodbye

thinking about how wind waker link’s first adventure had him controlling the winds to get around, it being his biggest strength in braving and traversing the seas, and in his next adventure he finds himself on a ship that does not at all require the wind for anything

#idk. like. even if link had the wind waker in ph. it would kinda be totally useless #just some thoughts #loz #legend of zelda #link #wind waker #phantom hourglass #i have yet to play wind waker properly but i think a lot about the differences between ww and ph #in terms of links experiences. like in ph realistically he has little control in where they go. its not his ship #he marks the path and mans the cannon but thats all he likely knows how to do #and hes only allowed to manually steer one time as far as we can see #idk. thoughts. i got ph on the mind and made this connection earlier idk if its anything #i like the idea of his ph adventure being a massive change insofar as… hes not some hero of courage he was just there in time #if that makes sense? ik he doesnt have the spirit of the hero of w/e and hes not specifically chosen #but its scaled back a lot in ph anyone technically couldve stepped up and did what link does #hes not alone he constantly has a fairy tagging along hes got a larger group of constant companions #idk what im trying to get at. maybe im brainstorming link ideas #salty talks #maybe the idea of link kind of wanting to feel needed after ww. if that makes sense. hes afraid of being useless to someone #something like that. he doesnt really want to go back to just being the kid the gods didnt pick bc he feels like.#hm. playing the hero in ww made him feel needed but it also terrified him and that feeling of being needed helped him combat that terror

hii, i wanted to say tiny token bring me so much comfort and thank you for doing them, could i request tiny iv with a bat? 🦇 or any of them, it doesn’t have to be iv 🩶

Tiny IV is just chill with everything, he is a cool little dude, he can't help it

#i hope you like this weird little furball of a bat #i can only draw at least semi realistic bats #half of elementary school was spent to learn to draw them realistically #it was an inside joke with my old literature teacher who was also the homeroom teach of our class as well and he was kinda afraid of bats #anyway #tiny token

No matter how many times I see this panel their wording always irks me

"What you might call a hands-off parenting philosophy"

Helen from where I come from that is called child neglect, I don't know if you're intelligent enough to understand this concept but I'll leave it here in case you want to open your eyes. Otherwise look up to the sky, the sun may not blind you as much as you are right now

"Im so jealous!"

Of not being around your child? Would you rather follow their example and not be there at all? What a great way to come out as probably shitty mother Margaret

Anyway I'm not sure what type of person Melinda is yet but I sure hope Yor doesn't go to her and her friends for parenting advice. Lord helps Anya if she ever does listen to them

#spy x family #sxf manga #it is so interesting to me they say it casually because it's probably very much present in their society the idea that leaving a child >#> take care of their own and sadly so many parents probably do it they don't consider it may be concerning someone of their close circle or #even a stranger does it. They may lack many information but Melinda friends *know* the Desmonds are barely there for their kids #and they not only don't perceive it as weird or wrong but also applaud them for it #realistic picturing how others irl could view it if they came across a situation like that. Still sad for Damian and Demetrius #kinda 🚩🚩🚩 for someone who has a child imo #melinda desmond #btw I came up with those names on spot until now these are unnamed one appearance characters #in this house we respect Margarets and Helens. Just don't be like these women #sxf chapter 66

Why do you want your characters to remain static over a multi-year time jump? Why do you want them to act as if no time has passed at all, when it has? Why do you want characters to always act the same and not react to their new changing environment?

#sighs #i mean sure change should be realistic #but whenever i suggest that *maybe* a character could possibly be acting a little different after a time jump #which has happened in show before!!#i get met with the only possibility of that having to include some super dramatic change #idk man star wars fans and atla fans are both like this #fuck yeah luke skywalker is a mess and aang is a loser dad. its been forty years #granted the st time jump will be a lot shorter #and maybe this is just an aversion to the timejump thing in general which fair #but if its gonna happen regardless i WOULDNT want everything to just be exactly how it was pre time jump #robin rambles #rant #kinda #stranger things

something about being told im 'the leading person at this whole academy when it comes to interpretation and stage intelligence' by the husband of the woman im trying (not really. but i mean. who knows) to seduce... ok boy you got me. lets make it a polycule.

#im playing it all cool and funny now but atm i legit burst into tears lol #like he said i have a 'good voice too of course' but i know realistically that is not my strongest asset #and even if i were technically perfect. which im NOT lol. the voice itself is just nothing special. it's there ig but that's about it #but its nice to know i may not be 100% useless after all #(just 90%)#also apparently the most feared and respected professor who came to the concert said. again. that he likes me the most.#which again. crying real actual tears about this all rn this means literally the world to me this is everything i have #and i have no one to share this with because im not gonna say it to my uni friend cause i dont want her to feel like im boasting or sth #(even tho she has no such qualms herself but probably because i know how. not great. it feels when someone keeps talking about themselves #and about how great they are and how easy everything is for them. i dont wanna do it back at her.#well there's also the fact that i dont think im great and this is not fucking easy to me at all lol #but idk i think the difference between us is that she actually admitted she sees no point in singing if she cant show off (thus she hates #the duet we're singing because she sings the lower part and cant show off her high notes or coloratura.#which is like. an insane take to me. i mean it i get it. kinda. if i had a voice like hers maybe id be like that too fuck knows.#but that just feels so. idk. sad to me. so self obsessed and empty. like you dont care about the music itself? about you being a part of it?#also immediately made singing with her not fun anymore. i thought we were creating something TOGETHER. but thanks for the confirmation #that you only really care about being 'better than'. yikes.#like idk this behaviour is funny and iconic in old school opera legends like yes go bite each others dicks off.#but it hits completely different when it's your own colleague let alone your friend. like damn girl. damn)#) anyway. the husband is kinda hot too now that i think of it. i really should seduce them both.#except its realistically not possible since they've both seen me cry now (she saw it like a hundred times lol)#so ive lost the hot and mysterious card alas. no uni professors romance for me
