Greetings and welcome! I love talking with y'all, but here are some important things to know about how I use my tumblr!

I do not talk to bots/spam accounts. Please customize your account so I know you are a human being (i.e. personal icon/avatar, description or background on your blog).

Do not solicit your services/items to me. If I want to buy something, I will go through the official channels myself.

If you want to do a fic or art swap, please be patient while discussing it. I am busy, and have also had several swaps fall through before, so I like to make sure that will not happen again.

If I believe your account is a bot, troll, or spam account, it will be blocked.

For anyone who isn’t aware, I write fanfiction on AO3 under the same name: Flakeblood. I am also on Ko-Fi for tips or short commissions.

AO3: Flakeblood

Ko-Fi: Flakeblood

If you have questions, or just want to talk about something, feel free to message or ask me here on tumblr!

why is it always a male character going mad avenging his dead wife and never a female character cradling her dying pure of heart husband in her arms then dragging the whole world down with her

First of all, this is a very clever use of this gif. Secondly, fuck you.

There's something so deeply calming about watching megafauna prance and gambol about like they're little lambs

Bison pronking is already so magical, and then the double rainbow and the happy birdsong just put it way over the top

The Hand – Annabelle Dinda

Every time a guy writes a song, he's a cowboy, a sailor Playing with the world in his palm like the first pioneer. Every time he opens his mouth, it's a loud movie trailer Clipping every image and sound he thinks proves he was here. A hand, a spike, a physical fight, A flash of light, a curtain, A toll, a tithe, the passage of time, A height, a dive, a burden, A girl, a night, a typical type, A siren in the water, A scroll, a nod, a message from God, A son, a Holy Father. Every time a guy writes a song, he's a sailor, a cowboy Holding out the world in his palm like he made it himself. Every time I open my mouth, I think, "Wow, what a loud noise!" Still on the soapbox, just hoping I seem underwhelmed. The hand, the pen, the writing again, The Wind around the Willow, The felt, the ice, the passage of time, The melting down the window, The ‘now’, the ‘then’, the thinking of "when", The bottle in the ocean, The strike, the pause, the message from - God forbid she shows emotion. This isn't rage, it's worth a mention. This is a fake internal tension. Sometimes, I spread out one opinion And stand on its back to gauge attention. This isn't rage, it's too specific. I like to hate symbolic limits. This is no statement, I'm complicit. This is a dream, GOD put me in it. A hand, a spike, a physical fight, The Wind around the Willow, A toll, a tithe, the passage of time, The melting down the window, The now, the then, the thinking of "when", The siren in the water, The strike, the pause, a message from God. Does that make me His daughter? A hand, a shove, a valley, a jump, A score under the wire, Just sweep me up, just sweep me up And take me somewhere higher, Just sweep me up, just sweep me up And take me somewhere higher, Just sweep me up, just sweep me up And take me somewhere higher.

After 13 years of this, it's still funny to me that detailing a full mental breakdown on tumblr is standard fare, but posting a nice selfie is a fraught decision.

[loki-zen]

this is the correct way around and every other social media site is wrong

[ploobytumbls]

I took a bus to a conference today and the bus driver fully stopped the bus to identify and chastise a person who was playing music out loud on their phone. That is how you get me to actually complete the customer service survey specifically so I can give you top ratings

[ploobytumbls]

It's days later and I'm still thinking about this man. Full ass bus pulled over to the side of a state highway with the hazards on, stalking down the center aisle intoning "ALL RIGHT. WHO'S GOT IT. YOU CAN'T HAVE IT ON SPEAKER." I want to commission a statue of him. a hero. a king.

Happy TGS Monday! Have a few epilogue doodles + headcanons!

Hyde being defensive about the streak in his hair. I personally headcanon that Jekyll can get a blonde streak too, and that they don't always have the streak-- instead, they'll get little hints of each other's appearance when they're leaning into the other's domain. Hyde had the streak doing the airship raid because he had to engage in the normally Jekyll-domain skills of coordinating the attack.

Exploring different outfits to give Jekyll/Hyde. Ft. the duality vest look I gave Jekyll in my webcomic, because hey I already had a design that combined the classic potion colors, why not.

I think post-canon they have to commit to sharing a style given their higher frequency of transformation. Jekyll wants something around his neck, he feels naked without it, and Hyde wants to look edgy. They also usually have some kind of hood so they can hide their faces in public, and the outfit has to be outdoorsy enough for their life at the Second Society camp.

Transformation! I think I'm committing to this scarf + vest look. It mimics Hyde's mindscape clothes and otherwise works with what I outlined for them.

Hyde preparing for the airship raid. On special occasions, they'll need a different fit. These are not always to both of their standards.

When my mother forgets a word, she is the queen of coming up with new words. Words that would take a third National Treasure movie to fully decipher. I was talking to her yesterday, and she said this: “You know the time for los jibbities is coming up. You must be so excited!” Oh, is it time for los jibbities already? I must have missed it on my calendar. Are we celebrating something? “Of course! We should all be celebrating, shouldn’t we?” OK, so los jibbities is a happy thing. It’s not like something is giving you the heebie-jeebies, which would have been my one and only guess. “Los heebie-jeebies? Now you’re making things up...and this is my show.” You’re right. The time for los jibbities is coming up. Is this a season? “Yes, the season for love. The season for pride.” OK, los jibbities. “Yeah, sound it out.” Los…jibbities. LGBTs! “Sí, mira cuz you’re gay!” “You couldn’t just say pride season? You couldn’t just… *laughs*

HAPPY LOS JIBBITIES EVERYBODY!!!
