[my activity and content is pretty chaotic right now, sorry!]
Mostly I post my art here and reblog a bunch of different stuff. If you want to find my posts search for #echo's blog (for everything), #echo's art and #echo.txt.
(wish I could name the art tag echo.jpg, but it wouldn't be true all the time, unfortunately).
I usually jump from hyperfixation to hyperfixation
Which means I got stuck in a fandom for a long while, but this thing can be kinda inconsistent
The list of fandoms I've drawn for are in the featured tags section
As well as with casual liking, commenting and reblogging, I'm perfectly fine with comments in a reblog, spam-liking, asks! I'm happy to receive any of that! Do ask for my permission to repost my art somewhere outside of Tumblr or to use it anywhere, including Tumblr, though.

I like to keep things positive! So If there are some sensitive topics or angsty stuff I point it out. I may not know or realize some of the tws and cws, so please note them to me, so that I could add them!
(I note them as CWs at the beginning of my posts, they're visually different for light jokes and heavy stuff)

Currently I've been actively working on my story, so for now I'm mostly posting different comics and doodles with my OCs. Think of it as of series of comic strips, memes and art about a bit chaotic everyday life of a robot and a forest spirit, who play pretend as humans in a low fantasy modern world while surviving in a university along with a witch and a human by their side.
(the story used to be an Inscyption AU, but everything has changed pretty much and became its own story when I started working on the plot; I'm still a bit nervous about the independency of the story, but I think it should work out with time anyway)
I don't plan to share the plot for now, but you can get to know the characters just from the general info and random facts I post here. You can find everything in the masterpost: boop!
I would love any questions about the characters or the story in general!
Here's some cool doodles from the bunch I did yesterday! Those are scenes from the Body Swap Arc in my story, so you're welcome to guess who's Clarson and who's Vakhmurka here :)
Also! I added a woman (o~0) Say hi to Frunce! She's Vakhmurka's childhood friend, a cobbler and a police enthusiast. I'm still figuring her out big time ('꒳' ;)
She has an rotation period of around four hours, which is why she's shaped so weird; it's a fight between the sheer speed and the gravity holding her together.
Earth technically spins a little faster, but Earth is so large compared to her, it maintains its shape. Much the same with the other planets.
So yeah. Eternally stressed out dwarf planet my beloved.
I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

a week into artfight i would like to give out the following reminders: it is okay if you thought you were going to participate but ended up not having time. it is fine if you started out enthused and then lost steam. you do not owe anyone revenges. you are not 'behind' and you are not letting anybody down. it is a silly little game for fun. do not forget this.
Yes, when the original post is deleted from the server (not just the blog, but the Tumblr servers), there is no root post for notes to be added onto, and also no root post for time to be counted from, so it starts from zero. Most computer operating systems use Unix, which was launched in 1971 with t.he epoch date of midnight on January 1, 1970 as 1. Therefore zero is one second behind that date: December 31, 1969. Also, very unfortunately, this also means nobody except you and anyone you reblog it to will see this explanation, as you cannot open the notes to see comments when there are no notes.
