some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.
Since ive befriended like half of tumblr's tisha fan community
Its time
So..to begin
I wanna give out a hot take
Lots of people like to think- (aswell as the word obsessive even being used to describe her in her wiki)- that tisha has obsessive or compulsive behaviours.
Now i agree with this to an extent- but, when we talk about toons you gotta remember one thing:
Toons come hardwired with certain interests or a sense of duty anyway, they're cartoon characters afterall.
Almost all toons have an intense interest or hobby, and we cant just label them all as compulsive or obsessive (shelly w her dinosaurs, rodger w his investigations, cosmo and sprout w their baking, shrimpo w his.....shrimponess. goob with....wanting to hug ppl??? brusha with painting- u get it, there are plenty of examples) and a huge factor on why i think we cant label tisha with these traits,
Is her interaction with 1) goob:
and 2) sprout:
Clearly
Gals tired
this doesnt rlly speak to me as her being obsessed with order or cleanliness, infact here she seems to loathe the idea that:
1) no other toon seems to help clean
and
2) NO OTHER TOON SEEMS TO HELP CLEAN BRUH
There are 7 days in a week 😭 and sprout is asking her to clean the kitchen all by herself for the 4th time 😭 have u ever seen sprouts floor
(honourable mention- astro asking for help to clean his room. His. His GIANT ROOM. "AGAIN")(and ofcourse the fact tisha is asking for help)
(thats not the only time shes subtly asked for someone to help her, her interaction with brightney is also her asking for help i just didnt ss it for some reason 😭)
Now idk about you, i dont have any obsession or specific compulsion to clean, but if i lived with like 38 other people, who all refused to clean up after themselves and came to me everytime they needed to, i too, would lose my mind with the mop.
And tisha is a maid so. Ofcourse she does
To me tisha seems to at the very least dislike her job, but another trait you can see in her interactions is shes extremely hesitant to just straight up ask for help (or atleast tries to make it seem like shes doing better than she is)
Even when people acknowledge that shes doing too much, she just brushes it off:
She didnt assure them that shes fine or anything, just said "someone has to keep things clean!"
Again, lightening the blow by saying "i could be better!" Instead of "can you all not make me clean an institute 75000 square meters bigger than me 6 times a week"
(also this is adorable wtf 😭 i never knew she said this 😭 "i could agree there" "that i could be better????" You dumbass 😭)
Getting the part that i think tisha dislikes her job out the way, lets dive into the absolute trenches she is in 💔
Tisha is the first toon anyone who needs help cleaning or organising comes to, We've already seen the cleaning part, but we also see that rodger gets tisha to help him out in investigations too
(tisha has already expressed in astros interaction that she dislikes how inconsiderate they are of her own time sometimes)
2. Alongside with being their own role, most toons also help as child entertainment mascots, and we see in the wiki that tisha even teaches little kids about cleanliness, so . Shes. Shes employed chat. or used to be atleast
3. Idk if i should include this or not but- she does help shelly clean her fossils, im torn on this because spending time with friends is like a break from work anyway but- if you were an overworked chef cooking for an entire cast of people and the only time you're spending with your friend is helping her cook i think thats sick bro 😭
4. Tisha doesnt have very many healthy relationships, shelly aside, shes got some weird situationship going with brusha, and scrolling through her entire wiki you'll see (other than toodles, cus everyone at gardenview has decent interactions w her obviously) she only rlly has a "friendly" interaction with teagan. (Teagan asking her to join her for tea)
Finding a friend in someone is not the same as being acquainted or even in tishas case, just living with them, she doesnt like the fact sprout, astro, or rodger are using her for their own benefit.
And even then, teagan seems to invite everyone for tea. Thats.....Her thing. So debatably, tishas only real friend is shelly
Being that overworked and having basically no one to rely on (cause like, shelly is fighting her own entire set of demons bruh) is....
Sick 😭 blushcrunch ur SICK 😭
In conclusion
-Tisha probably isnt obsessive or compulsive, just doing her job when no one else even seems to know how to
-She doesn't seem to have a good self image, considering her first thought in cosmos interaction is that he thought she shouldve been better, and tried laughing it off after being corrected
-She is a cookie crumbling and still pretending to be locked in
-She probably also struggles with getting people to listen to her cause she has straight up begged atleast half the cast of the game at some point to be competent
-Shes blue dabadeedabada
Unfortunately she is a cartoon character so we will forever depict her as cute and fuzzy in the game even though some of these toons suffer from very real life stuff (tisha is legit a 9 to 5 social anxiety ridden adult 😭)
Which is why i bring skin concept doodles
I didnt name them but its pretty self explanatory what they are anyway
Hey y'all, time for a Mystery Skulls Animated Monthly Update! (Which may or may not have been somewhat delayed on account of Silksong for some of us on the team...)
This time around we're showing off a pair of shots that are close to completion! There are still some small things to add and tweak to these in post, but the bulk of the work is in place here.
This pretty much illustrates our progress over the past few months: more effects turned in, more renders in place, and getting closer to implementing the rest of the backgrounds.
While we're certainly stitching the pieces together, it would be fair to say that we don't quite have the ability to pinpoint a release date just yet, which certainly stings with it being October once again. But we'll absolutely be sure to let y'all know immediately when we feel confident in setting that date! Again, thank you all for your immense patience with our team as we push towards the finish line on this video.

I sincerely hope that Dandy's World eventually adds a hard mode, even if it's not like this. The twisted designs shown here aren't final and are subject to change.
My flight companion turns out to be Jean-Eric from Endless Ocean 2! There's a lot of travelling with him in-game so another flight will be cool! He'll probably remind me about fish photo requests and give me some useful tips :3
@undercovermonster @inkedout @itsonlypolite @everestgale if you would like!!
@sawbones4117 do it again if you already have another character >:3
Ahem. Yeah. Anyways, my latest picture in my phone's library was none other than Symboli Rudolf, my favorite uma, my president and my emperor, of course I couldn't be any happier about that 🙂↕️
