me, in the outfit I wish I had, messy hair and all.

I wanna begin one of these Picrew chains, so I found this super cute Picrew!

opening up my own fanfiction document on my personal laptop to see if the author has updated it yet

Oh neat little spooky eyeball cane-SIKE

IT'S A KNIFE AND IM GONNA STAB JONAH MAGNUS WITH IT, CEASELESS WATCH THIS EYEBALL BOY

I get, “you either die a hero or live long enough to become a villain” vibes from this one XD

Big shot Spamton EX sprite. Just a lad. 

one fun difference between phoenix and apollo as pov characters is that phoenix is a completely average guy with a completely average level of pop-culture awareness, so with him it’s very easy to gauge how popular something is supposed to be - he’s pretty aware of the steel samurai, he’ll go to see a max galactica show if it’s in town, he recognises matt engarde when gumshoe mentions him, etc. like if phoenix knows a thing it’s popular you know? like he doesn’t have huge special interests or huge dislikes he’s a very follow the crowd guy, the things he’s doing are usually things maya is extremely passionate about and he’s indifferent but doesn’t consider it bizarre. apollo on the other hand is a little freak with a law hyperfixation who lives under a rock. it’s hard to gauge how popular the gavinners or the gramaryes are actually supposed to be because this guy wouldn’t know them anyway. he’s also rarely indifferent to things - he’s either absolutely loving something or telling klavier to his face he should stop making music because it’s shit. this makes him a more challenging protagonist from a world-building perspective, but an objectively much funnier one

I made a what the fandom thinks of you generator

I may not be able to speak German, but I can sing a German lullaby

This is my first lyric comic! Just in case, tw for blood, murder, and really unhealthy relationships, I guess?

I’m not sure how well these will load, as this is my first time posting pictures on tumblr, so here’s hoping tumblr doesn’t crunch the quality! If it does, maybe I could try to repost? Idk.

This is a lyric comic using the song “This is love” by Air Traffic Controller. The characters come from the Vargas AU made by @zarla-s, and it is absolutely fantastic! If you want to know more about the AU or the story it is based on, zarla explains it pretty well, so check out their stuff! 

I tend to ramble, so I’m going to put the comic and the rest of my spiel under a read more, for the sake of not making a huge post that’s annoying to scroll past. XD

For the sake of not reposting the chorus multiple times, I put it and the bridge together at the end, but the rest is in order. If anyone is curious about my design choices, feel free to ask. If anyone wants to redraw this better, also feel free! I know it is super messy and amateur-ish, but I was inspired to make this after I saw Zarla’s post mentioning the idea!

This took quite a while to make, and I actually intended to post this yesterday, but I think the day after Christmas is probably close enough. (,^~^)

Small note, I’m sure someone will probably notice similarities between some of my art and ones zarla posted. It’s probably most noticeable with the angel, tbh. But yeah, that was kinda on purpose? I don’t draw much, even though I enjoy it, so I’m not great at things like perspective and proportions. So, I used zarlas art as a reference for poses, trying to get close-ish to the original art without outright tracing. Then once I got more comfortable drawing the characters, I branched out more, like with the dancing scene. (^w^)

Any text in light grey/white is Edgar singing, dark grey is Scri, red is Nny, black is Nny and Scriabin, and for one scene the orange to red gradient is the waste-lock parasite speaking. I hope I did alright and kept it all mostly in character!

(Also, may I suggest “Mr. Fear” by siames as being sung to Edgar by Scriabin? It just feels like it fits.) 

(I own nothing but my own drawings, the Vargas AU and fic are Zarlas, and the original story is from “Johnny the Homicidal Maniac” by  Jhonen Vasquez.)

weird little brain tweak/reframing that helped me out. i Often find that advice that seemingly helps Everyone Else doesn’t make any sense to me, in ways that are hard to describe, and it can be really frustrating. but when i find a way to explain it to myself that finally seems to break through and make it click, it feels really good
