my cat skyler died this morning. he’d been pretty sick for a while, and had completely stopped eating. it’s kind of hard to believe he really is gone forever...my parents got him when i was six, so i barely even remember life without him.

rest in peace, my baby boy.

#animal death -#i haven't used this blog in a while huh

nothing quite like applying for jobs to make me want to launch myself into space and never return

#family stuff

my comfort level with being open with my parents about my fandom activities has changed so much in the past several years, and i’m very grateful for that

i used to hide that stuff from my family bc when i was a kid my mom always seemed exasperated with how obsessed i was with the cartoons i liked. for instance, i remember one time when i was drawing ppg fanart and she made a comment like, aren’t you getting a little too old to be drawing the powerpuff girls so much? so i started to feel ashamed of how much i liked these “childish” things and felt compelled to hide my interest in them. when i got into online fandom and subsequently back into drawing, i always made sure to never let on to my parents i was drawing fanart and spending ~80% of my free time lurking on fan forums. i thought they would think less of me if they knew

but later, after graduating high school, i slowly began worrying less and less about my parents thinking i was immature for liking stuff. maybe that was in part because my mom started watching animated movies with me and liked them, so i felt emboldened to try talking about my interest in animation more, and from there i got increasingly more confident being honest about my interests. gradually, i started to bring up my fandom-ish interests more often in conversations with my mom. thankfully, she’s never made another comment about me being too old to like cartoons/video games/etc, and doesn’t seem to care anymore if i want to draw fanart

now i’ve shown her the entirety of ATLA, LoK, and SU, which is big for me since i used to be too afraid to even mention the animated shows i REALLY liked, much less ask them to watch them. (my mom loved ATLA, which made me really happy :D) i’ve told her about some of the stuff that goes on in fandom, and mentioned a couple of the fanwork exchanges i’ve taken part in and fanarts i’ve posted. today she even encouraged me to try writing and posting more fanfiction after i mentioned the stuff i wrote for ladystuck.

idk, it just feels nice not to have to hide that part of myself from my family as much anymore :’)

every time someone draws gaster all tall+skinny, straight-backed, and wearing a turtleneck or neckscarf + long black coat, it reminds me of benedi/ct cumberbatch/. i guess bc it’s similar to the way he dresses in sherlock? and now that i’ve seen that interpretation of gaster so much, the association has stuck in my mind.

help

#associating any character with benedict cumberbatch is not a thing i want to do #undertale tag

me: i’m too socially isolated...i need to interact with people more and actually make some friends!

also me: i must make myself as small and quiet as possible so that nobody will be bothered or inconvenienced by my existence

so i’m replaying undertale (i copied my old save file to a new location so i wouldn’t have to reset, haha, ha ha, ha...), and i just noticed this:

does this mean that toriel was the one who gave sans the idea to sell water sausages as hot dogs. that’s so cute...i love their friendship...

#undertale tag #i'm sure plenty of people have noticed this already but #this is my first time replaying since my first playthrough back in september #so i missed some stuff

me trying to get a job: hello, i have literally no skills or experience whatsoever, please hire me

hehe i paused the new SU promo (trying to get a better look at what was in pearl’s hand) and instead i caught this:

look at pearl’s face omg

#su tag

you’d think i’d have gotten tired of the undertale soundtrack after listening to it (or remixes of it) every day for the last 2+ months, but, nope

#it's good

this would actually be kinda cute...

#undertale tag #what if temmie village was really just frisk playing pretend with themself #maybe that's why it's the only place you can sell stuff lol #all the money you get is actually imaginary money #which you can still use at other shops because imaginary money is valid currency in the underground #or something

this ad i got in my inbox this morning made me think of that one sponsor ad from welcome to night vale

“we’re taking 20% off E V E R Y T H I N G .”

i’m sorta sad there’s most likely going to be another stevenbomb in november bc that means the peridot-living-with-the-gems arc will end that much faster and i don’t want it to end

#i want her to stay with the gems forever #but i know that probably won't happen #su tag

i just learned that the music that plays right before the fight with Undyne in the No Mercy run is called “But the Earth Refused to Die” and i’m having emotions

#this game is really good at making me cry with just one single line #undertale tag #undertale spoilers #sort of

well, i got an ending...but not the best ending. it was bittersweet

apparently i have to reset now and become better friends with undyne to get the best ending? so...here we go again, i guess!!!
