"I shall go shining as a brilliantly meaningless figure, in a brilliantly meaningless world"
Just a history obsessed Aussie traditional artist trying to live life with a positive mindset... And fandoms. Currently invested into Lackadaisy, Gachiakuta, Tf2, and many, many other communities.

You can call me Briar! I'm a she/her, amateur traditional artist from Australia, with a current fixation on Lackadaisy, Gachiakuta, Tf2... And many other fandoms. My blog mainly consisted of trashy art, ocs, historical fiction, and cats. Lots of cats.
♡ Happy to answer any questions!
♡ Will include equally trashy fanfics (hopefully if I have the time to actually write them ✌︎︎)
♡ This blog is SFW only!
♡ Open to requests
♡ Be warned, this blog is certified cringe worthy
♡ Just here to chill out and post art ദ്ദി◝ ⩊ ◜.ᐟ
Hey guys! It's been... Quite a while since I've posted anything on here 😅.
Over the course of my hiatus, I wasn't really happy with my ocs anymore. They just felt... Flat, and uninspired. And I found it less and less fun to draw them over time, instead opting on diving into more fandoms- but! I have returned. And with me I have brought my (slightly) re-written Lacka-ocs.
Calliope “Callie” Cairns 🌾
Born in Swan Hill, Victoria (Australia)
2nd of Jan, 1897
Backstory/Current story:
- Born to Darren and Joanne (nee Moore) Cairns, two cattle farmers living on the outskirts of Callie's hometown
- The eldest of her siblings (Oliver and Robert) and was often the ringleader when it came to getting into mischief. Though what was once light-hearted mischief soon turned into actual crime, where the siblings and Callie’s (at the time) boyfriend, Murdoch, a Scottish farmhand on her family’s homestead, would go around robbing various shops in towns around Victoria. Burying their plunders in the cattle paddocks.
- Though when the Great War struck, and her brothers and Murdoch were drafted into the war, Callie was stuck on the homestead. Needing to take care of her elderly parents and the farm, despite her wanting to sign up as a nurse to try and make sure the boys were okay.
- The years passed, and the war ended. And as the soldiers returned, Callie was devastated to find Murdoch had died. Soon after deciding to run away from home to start a new life, with Ollie and Robert now home and able to take care of the farm without her help.
- Somehow, she found herself in America. Starting off her ‘new life’ by dressing up as a boy and street fighting in the streets. Being essentially homeless, before getting a job as a smuggler/driver for a small network of rumrunners. Where Callie would meet one Asa Sweet in the year 1924. Asa, seeing a hidden potential in the young Aussie, recruited her to the Marigold gang. Giving her her own apartment in the Hotel Maribel, and setting her up as one of his rumrunners/hijackers.
- When Sera and Nico join the Marigold gang, her and Sera did have numerous flings. The two of them liking to play-flirt and tease each other. Whilst her and Nico are pretty good friends and sparring buddies.

Marion Midwinter🪻
Born in Detroit, Michigan
28th of May, 1898
Backstory/Current story:
- Born to Gideon and Magnolia (nee Adams) Midwinter, a wealthy car company owner that provided gangs with automobiles (on the down-low) and a sleek fashion designer. Her mom having been slightly more present in her life compared to her dad.
- Grew up in an upper class set of suburbs, where she often preferred to read or illustrate nature then play with the other children. Being made an outcast by her peers given her ‘antisocial’ nature.
- When she entered her pre-teen years, she would often accompany her parents to dinner parties hosted by various gangsters. Given her father was ‘friendly’ with them. Though her childhood naivety enabled her to look past the overheard talks of ambushing in favour of being treated well by her father’s ‘friends’. Getting, in particular, to meet a certain Atlas May and his wife, Mitzi, when she was fifteen.
- Did get a higher level of education, and went to college to study criminology. Soon after applying to the women’s division of the St Louis precinct. Aiming to be a detective despite the seeming impossibility of her aspirations.
- She also uses her position in the police force to overlook any gangster business, in the best interests of her father, of course.
- Does go to the Marigold room for drinks, though not often
- Is friendly with the newest addition to the precinct, Dom Drago. Occasionally finding him a ‘mentor’ of sorts. Though as of recently, she has been swept up in more business involving The Marigold Gang. And in particular, a certain amber-eyed farmgirl with a tendency for getting herself into trouble…
Personality:
- Carries herself with an air of superiority, and suspiciously good posture
- Gets highly flustered at the slightest mention of romance
- Tends to make snide remarks, and is therefore not the most popular in the precinct

If you made it this far, thank you very much for reading!
I will try and make a part two, as I have created some new ocs (two of which have been mentioned previously) though I still have some story elements I need to work out.

@hideandgopeep @mylenapony11 @notsofrozt @fluffylandshark @brave-and-gentle I can’t think of any other moot who hasn’t done this so whoever else wants to join 💜
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE TAG @blue-iced-tea!!
There’s me up there of course as I have portraited myself here on Tumblr many times already, and one of my main hyper fixations; I initially thought Lackadaisy but I wanted to put something that not everybody around here might know about me!
I summon, only if they wish to participate that is;
AH Hey!, Thank you so so much @gentlelass for the tag, this is actually the first time I've been able to figure out how to do one of these, so thank you once more!!
With it being the spooky season and aside from Lackadaisy, Over the Garden Wall is currently of my main hyperfixations at the moment, and it's 10th anniversary couldn't've come at a better time!
As for who to summon lets seeeeeee how aboUT THESE GUYS (only if you wish to participate that is):
Thank you very much for the tags @gentlelass and @realbouru !
I've had many more smaller hyper fixations over the duration of the time I've been obsessed with Lackadaisy, but it's one of the only ones that has really... stuck with me.
Anyway, I shall nominate: @sundaesatmidnight @akosisab @rudnitskaia @ahhhh-118 @kablamoo7 @mivanti03 and @annlytical (only if you want to 😊)
Why am I lowkey starting to head cannon Angel's voice claim as Roxie Hart (Renée Zellweger) from Chicago (2002), like
I know in the movie Roxie doesn't have a Boston accent, but I think it just sounds like her, idk. And I can imagine Angel singing her own little cover of the song 'Roxie' somewhere down the line of her music career. But make it... 'Angel'.
Ace would have been 119 by 2024 and only two years away from surpassing god. Though unlikely, in my heart he is trucking along today continuously baffling Christendom by continuing to live.
I’m not very experienced with animation and i have a tendency to brute force my way through a problem instead of looking up a tutorial lol, but I’m pretty happy with this. The secondary motion in the ears and neckerchief are a bit janky but the tail sway I’m pretty proud of. As well as the anticipation before the yank on the calender.
I also simplified his design a little bit. As much as i love it, the fur pattern can be difficult to track so i left out the spots on his arms and tail. The face stayed the same though as its what most important.
And of course tumblr crunched the quality to hell so heres a little boogie gif with better quality
Alright, a revamp of this woman’s character bio is what I promised, and a revamp of this woman’s character bio is what I’m giving you! This is far less in Lackadaisy’s canon style than the previous one I made and more conforming to my own, and I like it just that way. Hope you’ll like it too 💓!
Made this initially as a wallpaper for my computer. Thank you @akosisab, @rudnitskaia, @spiky-berry21, @aghostnamedcalamity, @tohot4u and zzanimazz for the awesome art. I LOVE YOU GUYS!
Edit: got some more art right after i posted this so i updated it a little

Ahhh yippee!!
1. I am just barely shorter than 5ft
2. I once almost drank a spider
3. When I was little spiders really liked me. Like I’d find daddy long legs climbing up my arms a lot as a kid and there were two that made a nest near my bed and I felt like it’d be rude to take it down so I just. Didn’t
oouhhhh uhhh time to dig thru my brain for this one. yipeeeeee :33333
i got led stuck in the middle of my right hand in fourth grade and the piece is still stuck inside to this day. it's rlly faded now but it makes me feel like shitty gay(er) jesus
i have hyperphantasia and it makes me get physical pain from reading too much sometimes jfhd
i teach ukulele :3
@bloodmoonloveletter @johnnyburntcake @traumadumpsblog @awesomejedie @stardust-in-your-eyes (no pressure ofc :]]]]]]] )
1. I lov dogs. If I see a dog I gotta at least have 1 hour baby talking and playing with it. I don’t have a favorite breed or anything I just like them in general
2. Once someone asked me what college I was going to while walking through a fair. I look older than I am and Im tall for my age ( I’m about 5”7 1/2), but saying I was in college definitely concerned me. It was like 2 years ago but i still think about that.
3. Costco scares me. The store is too big and I usually get lost :[
Thanks for the tag @ollenotter27 !! I’m a bit late tho🤧
1. I am a spring and summer person I do not like the cold
2. I use Music as a way to help me create stories Like I let my imagination run wild.
3. I have this weird thing where I do not like to mix salty and sweet foods together like I don’t like to eat something salty and then eat something sweet with it, for example, chicken and waffles, but I don’t mind salted caramel. 
If @ehhhh-119 is a warm person, then I am a cold person. I meam it's hot here lol. The cool breeze just hit right on a spot in a tropical weather. Very refreshing. Would recommend to experience it.
I hate when people decided to disturb me when I am recovering my social energy. LIKE BACK OFF! There's a reason why I'm alone and people can't just get the hint first before doing so. (This also counts for me as invading my personal space, but I can accept hugs if you ask nicely.)
I have a full vision on how the story goes but too lazy to write a single word. (Ah yes my very own dilemma as a first time writer)
Autumn is my favorite season. The woods get so pretty and the weather is so mild and pleasant 🍂🍁🎃
I play the lever harp and electric keyboard (very badly pls cover your ears) 🎶🎹
I absolutely hated cola growing up but now that I’m an adult I can’t get enough of it lol🥤😅
@aghostnamedclamity @rudnitskaia @spiky-berry21 @multiversalgalaxy23 @whyyjakee @theunfunctionjunction @visoreyes @crystal-gryphon @daizy-head @blue-cinnamon-powder and anyone and everyone else who wants to play! Only if you want to of course!!! 🥰😁💜
