He/him. Black Lives Matter. White Adult. I am an aspiring artist and writer, and I love animals. I posted a different piece of artwork every day for a year, and a different illustrated story every month for 6 years (#wac). #lpw is long post warning. #ymm stands for “your mind matters” and it’s short hand for, “this is upsetting/disturbing”. I don’t post porn or gross shit but I do have a bunch of dirty jokes and difficult topics on here, and I often forget to tag. Interact consciously.
My original masterpost started out as a place for me to link my 56 Win A Commission Stories (See below for more). Then tumblr mobile and eventually tumblr desktop said the post was getting too unwieldy. So here is a masterpost of my creations! It is not complete, because when I started out, I was not as careful about linking and keeping posts. But it is still fairly comprehensive :)
@patheticbatman - My art blog (it was started later, so my older art was posted on this blog)
My Ao3 - Where I post both fanfics and original works that are too long for tumblr or come with no art.
My Bluesky - Where I post nsfw art without coverings.
Art Summary 2025 - A little showcase of my art from 2025! It has links to the previous years, and a new one will be posted every December 31rst.
366 Art Challenge - (April 2019 to April 2020) - I posted a different creation every day for a year. It is not a masterpost (though it does have a few links) but more of an explanation and celebration.
OTGWtober 2020 - (October 2020) - 31 days of Over The Garden Wall drawings for that October. It was part of the 366 Art Challenge.
Holes - An explanation of the movie Holes of which I am proud
ATLA Kuspuk Week 2022 - (February to March 2022) - Drawings of various Avatar: The Last Airbender characters in kuspuks (a piece of modern Yup'ik clothing that resembles hoodies)
Derin Stories Fan Art (April 2019 to now) - A masterpost of my fanart for Derinthescarletpescatarian's writing.
Li's Friends: Horrible Pets to Protect You From a Horrible World - (November 2020) - A stealth-ATLA fanart coloring book to which I contributed, and whose profits go towards wildlife funds.
Disney Princess Coloring Pages - (January 2020 - now) Coloring pages of Disney Princesses and heroines that also went into my coloring books. Occasionally updates when new movies or inspiring outfits for these characters are posted.
Disney Princess Choose Your Own Adventures - (July 2023) - A project I would like to continue one day. In excitement for polls coming out on tumblr, I tried to write a CYOA style fanfic. As of posting, it only has Snow White, but we shall see.
Win A Commission Contest - (May 2019 to December 2024) was a project I started in 2017, back when I was 16. i decided to make a fairy tale coloring book for my little cousins, and it spiraled from there. In May 2019, after a month on tumblr, I started posting the stories onto here. The idea was that if you could guess the fairy tale (and later children's books - I branched out) from a daily post of one illustration through the story, you could win a commission. Over the course of many months and one year-long break, I posted all 56 of my stories. On this masterpost, it also has pictures of sketches, the commissions I completed, my real life coloring books, and a specific list of fairy tales I adapted to become queer :). Just as a side quest sort of thing, I also started coloring them in. Yes, I am ambitious to my own detriment, thanks for noticing! Anyways, you should check it out. The official stories stopped in December of 2024, but I do have plans to write a short, smutty sequel planned for my last story in 2025. It may be posted only to my ao3, only time will tell. It no longer allowed me to edit the post despite attempts to remove links, so this takes you directly to a reblog with the last few links of the project.
Colored-In WAC Illustrations {1} • Colored-In WAC Illustrations {2} - (April 2021 to now) - what it says on the tin. I figured it deserved its own link considering that coloring what amounts to over 200 illustrations is also ambitious. I originally these in on Google Drawings and occasionally by painting or coloring the actual initial drawing; then for a couple years I mostly colored them in on my phone in waiting rooms and such. Now that I printed them out for myself, I color on paper using pencil and occasionally other materials! Latest story was the Nose Tree, am currently working on coloring in ‘Shivers’.

My Fanfiction.net - I can’t prove it (it’s connected to an old email account) but this is my old account. Please don’t judge anything you see on here, I was like 15 when I last used it. But the writing is actually fun to reread, at least for me :)
saw someone at work today wearing a hat that said "definitely not a werewolf" and it was all scuffed and torn up and i immediately thought of you <3 i was even like "OH YEAH MY FRIEND WHOS WORKING ON THEIR PHD—" about it lol
michael you’ll never believe it but I know exactly where they got that hat (coeyandshy on etsy) (it is also available as a sticker or a patch)
I still like the term parental unit that we used to use as a joke in middle school and high school. Did everyone else do that or was it just a my social circles thing?
Anyways telling the kids to go collect their parental units at the end of an event is a) funny b) gender neutral and c) just refers to the person currently doing your parenting
Also if you’re on joking terms with your parents “greetings, child” “greetings, parental unit” is a top tier greeting. Makes you sound like robot aliens.
Do you think it should be mandatory for people with driver's licenses to take a refresher driving course every set number of years* – ideally low-cost or funded with taxes – to hammer in the basics of driving, road rules, safety tips** etc, rather than only having to pass a driving test once?
Yes, it should be mandatory / No, but it should be an accessible option / Nuance / Results
* say every 5 years for example
**safety tips could include reinforcing why it's important to keep a certain distance from the car ahead of you and how the safe distance changes depending on various circumstances; how little time speeding/weaving through traffic actually saves vs how much it increases the risks; safety around cyclists/motorcyclists; examples throughout of what can and has happened when people ignore these things; maybe even basic maintenance so you don't get stranded with a flat and no idea how to put the spare on etc etc.
(also re: work, for the sake of this poll let's say it'd be similar to jury duty in the US, in that your employer is required to allow you paid time off work, or your school is required to give you unpunished time off, to complete this refresher course because it's mandatory. And fwiw I'm talking everywhere there are cars & resources to support this, not in any specific country. Obviously some people will still be dicks but we're not talking about them here)

I'll throw in the wonderful Eizin Suzuki into this ring too, a man whose work just breathes light without actually using dynamic lighting in the usual way. It's no surprise both Nagai and Suzuki are both considered prolific in art pertaining to the city pop genre because they're able to paint these kinds of scenes with a delicate touch.
This feels like I could trip on that radio and fall right into that water, feeling the crystal waves as I drop in.
And this, a nice stroll down a resort strip, where my sunscreened skin could literally feel cooked if I leaned too close to the tiling.
And then a nice stretch of summer street, wherein you could see your face in the flushed red of that car provided it didn't blind you from its sunny reflections.
I don't think I even need to say anything more, Suzuki's a massive influence in how he even places colours so warmly in such unorthodox manner. It's a naturally sunkissed talent~ 🌊
