Show your favorite drawing from last year!
Maybe this Nidhogg? It was pretty chill to work on and the idea took quite a turn from fierce Nidhogg to Nidhogg enjoying his favourite flowers.

I was first about to say the scar-origin comic but on further inspection its pages spanned both -22 and -23 :'D

hellooo might i pester a director's cut of the dynamics about Suits of KGA? :>
Yeee ofc I shall do my best to explain this bc it is a weird concept but a fun one lmao
A few short comments to start: I had not quite hammered out the details and finalities of Suits until around Ghost Strings, and even that was near the end.
Nightmare's coveting of Fredbear pushed me to really cement the concept of Suits into place.
Fredbear is rare and an exception, he's incredibly powerful but burns through Souls and eats away at his Suit by accident. Even clever Marionette is unsure the specifics as to why Goldy is so devastatingly horrible without trying to be, but the lure of his abilities and powers draws many to wanting to have him for themselves, even if it will kill them. (Marion wonders if shards of Arthur and Henry are what changed Fredbear into what he is today.)
It became a 'thing' out of strange necessity when I asked myself 'what if Mike Schmidt made a "deal with the Devil"?' in that he agreed to protect the restaurant and Marion gave him Goldy. Mike Schmidt was always planned to hold onto Fredbear's spirit since the start of London Bridge.
The haunted, powerful and spooky powers of Suits was created to do two things for the kga plot: Explain the first game's cardinal rule of "no endos without an outer, protective casing" and explore further why Golden Freddy/Fredbear was more spirit/apparition than actual thing in the first game, and why he talked all jumbled up.
Mike Schmidt has been protecting/guarding the Remains of Fredbear's spirit as much as Goldy looks out for his Suit/the rest of the animatronics/the restaurant.
I had no plans to separate those two until around Last Shift/Security Breach was released...then Ideas Happened when I saw Glamrock Freddy >3
The baseline thing to remember with Suits in the KGA is: Good becomes great. Bad becomes worse.
OK now into deeper stuff:
In the diner, a 'suit' was originally just the straight forward idea of 'human wears animal mascot fur suit to entertain kiddos, and give the other Animatronic alongside them a guided force so their programming stayed on task.'
This carried into the Toy's restaurant, as they especially needed some human intervention to avoid wandering off during open hours. (The Toys were never haunted, never really given as much TLC by their coworkers, and developed differently than the older and possessed original four and the two original models.)
After the Crying Child started haunting the Marionette, William Afton noticed it and began trying to replicate what he called Reanimation. It didn't go as planned, obviously, as the Marionette was not human over night, and he didn't understand the concept and, of course, it was Wrong, to try and cheat death. His youngest was an angry, sad, and out of control spirit filled with anguish and wrath and unmoored. But he was powerful, and wanted his father's love even in death, and Marion's ability to Give Life started growing.
The Suit partnership involves one animatronic and one human soul. The easiest ones are, of course, a human dying and their Soul being anchored down into the Animatronic. It's both Blessing and Curse, sometimes leaning one way or the other depending on the two individuals fused together.
An Animatronic can survive after their human soul is allowed to move on to rest, but they retain the humanity they developed from their now lost Soul, even if they begin breaking down. The original four had AIs that were progressing along by the time Afton stuffed their children into them, small personalities that grew as the spirits of their kids took hold and clung to them for comfort/safety.
This is something I didn't explore/detail well and I wish I had back in Devil's Spine: Concerning the original four, they grew from Max's teachings but also grew due to the whims of their Souls.
Freddy's child was a little leader, wanting to protect and keep safe and be in charge. Chica's girl wanted comfort, wanted her mother, and Chica became very comforting, but fiercely protective and not afraid to show it. Bonnie's girl had her throat slit, she had no voice in death so Bonnie spoke for both of them, leading him to be chatty and pointed and animated.
Foxy had a teenager in him before the other 3 had their kids, and he tends to be the more independent thinker of the lot, often able to be more realistic and accept things out of his control, but prone to temper issues when he's hurting.
The deeper a bond that grows between the Animatronic and it's Soul, the stronger their powers. Sometimes the outer 'Suit' is the Animatronic, sometimes its the human. For example, Scraptrap is technically Max Afton's Suit, being the toughest and most protective outer shell. Mike Schmidt is Fredbear's Suit, as he's out more and Fredbear has no outer casing anymore to thrive in, as it rotted away years ago and was stripped for parts as mentioned in Lies Within.
But others in the story would call Max Scrap's 'Suit' as well, the term flip-flops as needed between the bond.
Mike and Goldy's bond is strong from power/force/intent on both their ends. Fredbear is old. And he's gotten Angry over the decades. Mike wanted nothing more than to Live, he didn't want his body and heart to give out on him before he was ready. He was so desperate to survive the nights, their bond kept him a walking dead man who passed for living so well, minus the two heartbeats.
Max and Scraptrap's bond is deep from years of Togetherness. Scraptrap had no personality programming, just a blank slate of an AI that was given to a dead kid who had lost his family, his home, and his life in one terrible year.
The Crying Child's flashlight can forcibly draw out Souls or even unravel Suits.
Suits develop in different ways that are unique to the bond, as seen by Mike and Gold being able to Switch, or Max and Scrap being able to both be functional at the same time with no issues to one another.
The Suits can be healthy or toxic partnerships, they're always codependent it just depends in what way, and what choices the Suits make.
Springtrap and William Afton being the biggest example of what goes wrong when a Suit's powers are used for evil/wrong-doing, obviously. Circus Baby and Henrietta being an example of an Animtronic swallowing a human Soul until nothing remains. Mike and Goldy being a case of "Everything's fine" and then it's discovered Mike has been dead for years. Max and Scrap being a showcase for attachment issues, Max willing to die (again) if he can't be with Scrap, and Scrap willing to murder without hesitancy if someone threatens Max (although thankfully by the time we meet him in Last Shift, he's clearly been taught otherwise.)
I think I've rambled enough ^^; its 1am and i gotta get some sleep lol

for the NPC ask meme, M'naago and/or Fordola!
M'naago is definitely a friend! Even if they hadn't fought together during the liberation of Ala Mhigo, M'naago also is both the half-sister of "Red" with whom Kea has a music duo with, and quite close friends with Lyse who Kea basically sees as an adoptive half-sister of her own, so Kea would likely see her as a friend regardless!
Plus she's fun and kinda cute and I'm sure Kea's at least felt tempted to playfully ask if she's supposed to take it literally when M'naago exclaims "bugger me!", hah.
Fordola... Kea's definitely sympathetic towards her. She's done a lot of ill, and it's ultimately for the Ala Mhigan people to decide whether or not they are willing to forgive her for it, but Kea herself definitely believes Fordola genuinelt wants to do good, even if Fordola herself might not, and very much wants for her to have the chance to prove it.
I think Kea sees a bit of herself in Fordola, in the way she too struggled to feel even accepted let alone wanted amongst those who should be her kin - and while Kea found a place for herself amongst the Scions, the Empire never treated Fordola as anything but a disposable tool to use and eventually discard, and I think if there's anything that Kea hopes Fordola saw when the Echo granted her a glimpse into Kea's heart, it is that it doesn't have to be like that - that she doesn't have to live for mere scraps of approval from those who otherwise hold her in contempt, and that there are people who will accept her for who she is rather than what use she might serve.
Plus, both Lyse and Arenvald seem to believe in her, and that's good enough for Kea.

you planning on moving your artwork or glazing it? (from now on and retroactively, that is)
also of note, if you glaze your artwork, throw some Nightshade on it. glaze just makes AIs unable to copy your style, nightshade actively poisons the AI, combining both is generally recommended
Thank you for your concern! i'm not leaving(for now, anyway, that's all i can answer) so i'm planing to use it! however my laptop is not strong enough to run it so i've been trying to find a way somehow(gonna try to test it in my sis's laptop) i also heard that there is other program called "Mist" i remember seeing it at around the same time "Glaze" was announced, and i'm trying to use it right now but i couldn't get it to work for some reason..will find a way..sigh

There's also this silly idea where I'd want to illustrate stuff related to some fancier words and concepts to make them easier to understand and remember. Not me stopping mid-podcast to wonder what emeritus actually means!

╰(*´︶`*)╯: Do they appreciate hugs? Would they prefer to give hugs or receive hugs? What kind of hugs do they like to receive and/or give? / ಸヮಸ: Do they lean back or forward when they laugh hard? Do they snort? Slap their knee? Do that seal-esque clap? Do they often laugh to the point that you can’t hear their laugh anymore? (Talon again!!)
╰(*´︶`*)╯: Do they appreciate hugs? Would they prefer to give hugs or receive hugs? What kind of hugs do they like to receive and/or give?
Boy is honestly beyond touch starved, and if he's comfy with you, he will take all the hugs (and physical affection in general tbh). Probably holds on a second longer, just because he needs that. I don't think he really initiates, just because it's not something he's used to doing. As far as type goes, the big bear hugs probably.
ಸヮಸ: Do they lean back or forward when they laugh hard? Do they snort? Slap their knee? Do that seal-esque clap? Do they often laugh to the point that you can’t hear their laugh anymore?
He doubles over and will laugh till he can barely breathe ^-^

🛼 and/or ❄️?
🛼 ⇢ describe your latest wip with five emojis
🔪🐀🧃⛈️⁉️
❄️ ⇢ what's your dream theme/plot for a fic, and who would write it best?
Since you're one of my few active Disco Elysium mutuals, I'll say I once dreamed of a House of Leaves Disco Elysium AU where Kim and Harry were neighbors in a cursed apartment building similar to the House. I'm not sure who would be best to write it -- someone better at intfic who has deep knowledge of how to fuck around with CSS, I would think. It would probably be best as a visual novel. It was an eventual Kim/Harry/Jean fic, as that's my fave vibe :)

tell your anon that it might not be the shortest, but Democracy Now! is very very good imo, it's not just another podcast, it's a long-running radio show with an emphasis on human rights and climate justice (look at the wikipedia page for a list of their most controversial interviews). on one of its most recent episodes they included an interview with a woman on the ground in Gaza which I feel like has been lacking in some of the other news sites

I saw Atticus was an eager biologist. What are his favourite topics to talk about in that? Does he talk to his warband a lot about it, how are they like about it?
(can be answered in or out of character as you want)
I think, when he received that trait, I was reading this book series called 'a Natural History of Dragons'
Good book aside, Atticus is notably a natural historian! He has lil notebooks full of sketches of plants and animals. His warband knows that when he finds a new plant or animal that isn't in his notebooks that he'll be unreachable for a while before he finished documenting it.
I am, not too versed on how a natural historian goes to work tbh. But I think theyre cool!
