Hi, I’m a troll (9 sweepz, teal) who haz a human (19 years) matesprit. Recently I’ve realized that she may be vacillating pale for me, but I already haz a moirail (9 sweepz, jade). I waz wondering if you have advize for how to bring thiz up to my moirail. I want to keep dating both of them and have done some reading on humanz being pale in matespritshipz, but a lot of what I’ve read only talkz about having your human partner az your only partner in both quadrantz. Any advize for palerom in thiz way?

I recommend Sitting Them Both down and Having a conversation about The Relationship you want to form… Humans Naturally Gravitate Toward having multiple quadrants filled With One Person, but Some Humans share one quadrant With Multiple People— Perhaps that Kind Of Sharing would work?

SORDIE YOU ^ND I ^RE IN THE FUCKING TRENCHES OUT HERE

figuring out ur oc posts don’t go into ur oc tags because u put those tags at the end of the post instead of the top is pain 😔

🍈my 1st question is- how do u get different textures in ur digital art? (I might have asked this already sordy ahhh I have bad memory) like in ur Usual Content, there usually isn’t any spots with *just* color but it looks like u overlay patterns on it? I esp lov the way ur hair looks in ur comic series! (Which I adore ahh so cute n funny!!!!) for the way u render hair in ur comic specifically- it looks it was done traditionally :0 is it digital with like a specific brush u use? Or- (1/??)

Hello pal! I will try to answer the best I can!

First, how I get textures in my art: I have a couple of brushes I've made that are just lines and other patterns I moved over from sai (i've been using procreate recently!)

I create a multiply layer above the drawing and then adjust opacity until it looks nice!

Next up, about the pen i use for my comics! I use georgevw's procreate comic liner brushes! You can get them here, I encourage you to check out the rest of his stuff to he has a lot of great brushes n resources! The specific brush I use is The stratchmore!

Next up, colours! In my experience, having an eye for colours just takes experience and practice, and sometimes a certain knack for it. I do not have that knack and although I have been drawing a long time, I still struggle with colours! mostly do to having a minor colour blindness, but that's a-ok!

I tend to gravitate towards bright more eyes training colours just because I can see those best and feel more confident in using them! even then I worry though about things looking 'cohesive' and i rely a lot on overlay and multiply layers!

my advice: shlap whatever and all colours u want on there and then slap on some multiply and overlay layers, adjust opacity until your shoes are lookin cool

PICCOLA POSTA - (Steno, 1955)

This little, but amusing movie is a funny, light comedy centered on some "Lady Eva", a pretended Polish countess, actually the all-Roman signorina Cangiullo (Franca Valeri), who gives her answers to the many women questioning her for advice on her letters page of a famous women magazine: some would follow her suggestions to the letter, some (Alberto Sordi) would use them to cheat an old millionaire lady....  (I stop here).The movie was clearly inspired by the success of similar journalistic sections and I must say if the social satire intent is very soft, the characterization of Valeri is absolutely enjoyable (and, in the scene in which she is transformed in Audrey Hepburn's "Sabrina", irresistible): she and Sordi bear the whole movie. Quite entertaining, quite amusing movie about a side of a vanished time.

spoke to matesprit about blackrom=>and about how its nice=>for her health=>she now has three one sided kismeses=>and is attempting a fourth=>is this bad=>shes very bad at it

my Word. For Someone Who’s “very bad it it” She’s Pulling bitches

:(okay so. ! (purpleblood, 7so, any/all) am k!nd of quest!on!ng my ak!smet!c!sm. and !ts of very stup!d reasons):

:(so to start off !ve always struggled w!th the concept of romant!c hatred. hate !n !tself always seemed more l!ke a burden than someth!ng enjoyable to me?):

:(anyways. that k!nda changed. a few days ago, a v!oletblood !ve seen a few t!mes before attacked me for wear!ng a jade s!gn as a purpleblood (wh!ch, adm!ttedly, !s a whole nother !ssue on !ts own, but not too relevant to th!s). !t left a pretty nasty burn scar):

:(! d!dnt f!ght back back then, but now ! k!nda w!sh ! d!d. ! want to b!te !t, to scratch !t, r!p out !ts f!ns. but ! dont know !f those are really p!tch feel!ngs? !s th!s just platon!c hate? all those agress!ve thoughts danc!ng !n my head are making me s!ck tbh...):

:(so yeah. !s th!s k!smet!c attract!on? should ! g!ve !nto these !deas? !m really confused...):

It’s Not Unheard Of for an akismatic troll to Suddenly Develop pitch feelings… Though certainly rare, some mistake very rare attraction for a lack of attraction at all!

My Best measure of which is which is found in The Answer To The Question: do I want to see them improve? Do I Want To Be Near Them?

If no; it’s probably platonic!

(HEY. HORN ANON HERE.)

(I THINK THE GUY WHO SAVED ME HAS PALE FEELINGS FOR ME?? HE'S REALLY NICE AND I FEEL LIKE IF I SPEND MORE TIME WITH HER I'LL FEEL THE SAME, BUT I DON'T RIGHT NOW.)

(SHOULD I TRY IT? SHOULD I SPEND MORE TIME WITH THEM?)

(Hey. Horn anon here.) (I think the guy who saved me has pale feelings for me?? He's really nice and I feel like if I spend more time with her I’ll feel the same, but I don't right now.) (Should I try it? Should I spend more time with them?)

I think that you Should Go For It, Horn Anon

I-Is t-this t-thing o-on?

I-I'm h-hoping f-for s-some f-feedback o-on t-this. I-I (7-7 G-Goldblood) h-have m-mostly h-highblood r-relationships t-that I-I d-don't k-know h-how t-to k-keep m-my n-nerves d-down w-when n-near t-them. I-I d-don't k-know i-if i-it's t-the p-power i-imbalance o-or s-something e-else e-entirely, b-but I-I f-feel l-like t-that n-nervousness i-is p-pushing t-them a-away f-from a-all o-of m-my q-quadrants.

I-It p-probably d-doesn't h-help m-my n-nervousness w-when t-they a-all s-seem t-to c-cull a-another t-troll o-on t-the d-daily... s-so I-I'm c-clueless w-what t-to d-do a-against t-those f-factors.

I-Is t-there a-anything y-you r-recommend I-I d-do t-to h-help c-control t-the d-damage?

Is this thing on? I'm hoping for some feedback on this. I [7 Goldblood] have mostly highblood relationships that i don't know how to keep my nerves down when near them. I don't know if it's the power imbalance or something else entirely, but I feel like that nervousness is pushing them away from all of my quadrants. It probably doesn't help my nervousness when they all seem to cull another troll on the daily... So i'm clueless what to do against those factors. Is there anything you recommend I do to help control the damage?

Talk to Your Highblooded partners! Bring this Nervousness up to them. If you don't feel Safe around your partners, It May Be Time To Run.

|| need adv||ce pretty badly =:( my (9 gold) fr||nd group and || have been work||ng on a project for the last few weeks, and ||ts been go||ng super smoothly!! except two of my fr||ends (9 gold, 9 teal) have started ser||ously butt||ng heads lately. they have always k||nda hated each other, but th||s project has ser||ously put an extra stra||n on the||r relat||onsh||p

the problem ar||ses ||n the fact that we can not deal w||th two k||smeses ||n the||r honeymoon phase putting a wrench ||n the works. Someone needs to med||ate, and ||ts look||ng l||ke ||tll have to be me. || dont really feel that way about e||ther of them, ||ts a purely profess||onal th||ng and || dont really do quads that often. || feel l||ke ||d be lead||ng the both of them on, but no one else ||s really down to ausp||st||ze for them.

what do you th||nk?? would ||t be mean to lead them on, or should || med||ate w||thout really feel||ng ashen for e||ther of them?

Sometimes An Ashen Fling is called for, and if It Must Be You, it must be you. Good Luck Anon.

okay. here goes nothing. i guess.

i (olive, 6.9 sweeps),,,, am deeply conFused about my attraction towards a what i guess you can call a “Friend” (rust, 6 sweeps)…. For the longest time,,,, ive been unsure oF whether or not the Feelings ive had are Flushed or pale…. ive known him since we were wrigglers,,,, and as Far as i know, he doesnt have a matesprit or moirail…. how the hell do i navigate this,,,, what should i do????

I Would approach this From A Point Of Social Need- which quadrant would Fulfill Your Bloodpumpers More? Do You pity him? Do you Feel The Need to regulate or protect Him? Talk With This Olive and see what He Feels.

Okay. No quirk to disguise myself (because technically i dont legally exist but thats a different situation). So i' a mutant and i have a purple blooded friend whos been very blatant with their romantic advances. But big problem is, i don't think i can love at all? Or hate? Like. I do not feel romantic love or romantic hatred at all. And the purple blood vaguely knows about this but doesn't really understand what that means. I'm worried if i am firm with him and tell him i'm flat out not going to date him he's gonna cull me or report me to the drones or something, it's freaking me out. What do i do? Do i date him?

MY MOIRAIL SAID I,M NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE ANY OTHER QUADRENTS FILLED¡¡

BUT SHE HAS MULTIPLE FILLED’ MORE THAN ONCE°

HELP¡¡

leave her. Hope That Helps!
