//Blows dust off this blog. Wow it's been a whole year, wack.

Gonna just jump into it. I don't think I'll be coming back to this blog.

I love this au very much and I have fond memories of this blog and making art to answer your asks. But for a long time it started to feel more like a chore. I was setting this impossible standard for myself to update all the time when I really didn't have the spoons for it and I had to send myself asks 9/10 times and I only got a few notes on any given post.

I agree that creators should create for themselves, but I also think fandom is taking creators for granted. You are consuming our content and keep demanding more, as if we're machines. We share our art for others to enjoy and talk to us about with, but from my end on this blog a lot of times it felt as if I was only giving.

I'm not saying all of you are like this of course. There were also so many of you I loved seeing in my notes every time I posted and made me feel happy. I loved all your questions, all your tags on my posts, all your redraws.

If you like a fan's creations, either art or writing or cosplay. Please, please let them know. Reblog their stuff, send them silly asks. I honestly think ask blogs aren't as popular anymore because so few people send asks. They don't even need to be lore related, anything is appreciated.

I don't think I'll be coming back to this blog but I don't think I'll stop ask blogging all together. Just not as frequently. I also will be keeping this blog up. I love it just as much as you and want it to be here forever. We all deserve to be able to look back I think.

If any of you have any questions about what my plans were for the future of this blog feel free to send them here or my main @paperuniverse

Thank you all so much for your love and support over the years. Gilbert and Ludwig will be in our hearts forever :)

Arthur going to any... uh... social functions? (Not the FBI)

Arthur: "Remember, don't ever tell anyone online any 'social functions' you're planning on going to."

[ask-gilbert-and-ludwig]

Are you planning on seeing the Barbie movie?

Gilbert: Abso-fucking-lutely!

🎉🎉Happy belated fourth birthday to this blog!! 🎉🎉

This year to celebrate I’m doing a fun little activity kind of like a draw this in your style, but different. Here I’ve drawn a picture of the boys which you are free to colour and shade as you like.

I’ll be reblogging any coloured version of this you tag me in until the end of February, so no rush to get it done right away!

Have fun colouring and here’s to four years of this fun little blog <3

Gilbert, you and Arthur are blushing, do you to have feelings for each other?

Gilbert: "We might have gotten out first piercings together and held hands as it happened but it was in a very not gay way!"

It was very gay.

[ask-gilbert-and-ludwig]

What's that on Arthur's jacket?

An antifa flag!

[ask-gilbert-and-ludwig]

Gilbert: “Didn’t get to hang out with my family for my actual birthday but my roommate, Arthur and I watched some movies and it was... nice.”

[ask-gilbert-and-ludwig]

Didn’t do a lot of art this year, but I still managed to do at least one piece each month! So, I guess that counts for something :)

It’s really cool how you can notice the slight improvement in my art, and even then I’m still extremely proud of my Sun art from February

Here’s links to every art piece for those who want a better look:

January | February | March | April | May | June | July | August | September | October | November | December

Happy holidays everyone! Here’s some fluff after that last angsty addition to the comic :)

//Crawls out of pit labelled ‘Finals’ coughing up blood: “Holy shit, I survived.”

Here’s the final instalment of these comics! Yay! Your heart will hurt.\\

BOOST.

[aqueous2]

Absolutely vital information to have if you live where the waters freeze over.

I especially appreciate this guy's commitment to actually showing the steps himself. That cold-shock response is a bitch and willingly subjecting himself to it couldn't have been fun.

I don’t live anywhere near water like this, but I am still memorizing this knowledge because:

* I might use it in a story someday.

* Any knowledge that staves off the dying is good knowledge.

[mousenoises]

Some kids passed away today in my region from falling in icy water, so thought it was important to boost.

German Bros Week Day 4: Stars

@germanbrosweek​

A break from the event for a different event 😊

[ask-gilbert-and-ludwig]

//Thanks again to @asking-gereng​ for doing the flat colours.\\

//I originally wanted to try and finish the event by the 5th, but with the end of the semester fast approaching, I don’t think that’ll be possible. At the same time I don’t want to wait another year to finish this, so I’ll be extending the event further into November. I’ll be setting a soft deadline of November 19th, but no promises that the event will end there.

If I’m lucky there will be some time in November I can post some normal responses before Christmas is on everyone’s minds.

Hopefully you (my followers) don’t get bored with the Halloween event as they start thinking of the winter holidays lol.\\

The boys are in danger...
