Howdy hey, welcome to my blog! I primarily post fanart for EAPS and my EAPS/TSAMS AUs. I mostly watch the gaming episodes of TSAMS and NLAES, I very rarely watch lore episodes and I'm really burnt out on current TSAMS lore and I'm very frustrated with the current direction of the show so I'm trying to take a step back. I'm a huge fan of early TSAMS from the beginning to OM's death, after that not so much.

I like to share occasional updates to my fanfics or post my thoughts about certain topics within my fandoms. I'm a very opinionated person and I will rant freely on my blog. There will be posts with profanity and bits of adult humor because I am an adult myself, be wary of that if it's not your cup of tea.

I post in-character gameplay videos and some animatics on my Youtube !

I'm now taking art commissions through vgen!

I DO NOT ACCEPT ASKS THAT WANT MONEY, IF YOU SEND THEM I WILL BLOCK YOU.

Recurring tags for my personal TSAMS/EAPS AUs:

#trash and brotherly bonds - the tag for my Nice Eclipse AU, called TABB for short. In which Eclipse has a family among Sun and Moon and a community in his Pizzaplex, he is not the same as Solar.

#inky's ruined refugee au - the tag for my Ruined Refugee AU, featuring an alternate Ruin more like his game counterpart.

#ghost whisperer sun au - the tag for my AU where Sun learns he has the ability to talk to the ghosts of dead animatronics.

#executing eclipse.exe au - the tag for my EAPS AU where Eclipse goes to MCM and joins Arnold in stopping the Mimic.

#inkykuro answers - the tag for all asks sent to and answered by me!

If you don’t already know the song, “Are You Listening?” by Lydia the Bard is VERY much a Sun song

FUCK YES IT IS! Yessss, it is so perfect for Sun and his struggle to be heard only to be smothered again and again. He's calling out to be heard and his family won't listen, especially Moon.

Moon thinks he's listening, thinks he's such a good brother and is so self-congratulatory, meanwhile Sun's screaming until his voice box burns out. And that's if he's not shut up by his own fucking family.

That one's goin' to the playlist! I love Lydia the Bard's music. And I don't recall if I've shared it before, but her song "Afraid of the Quiet" also fits Sun perfectly!

And honestly, the song you suggested reminded me of how I wanted to check out I Got No Time (my favorite version being Caleb Hyles' cover) because the "I'm stuttering, I'm stuttering again! No one will listen and no one will understand because I'm crying as much as I speak, 'cause no one likes me when I shriek" line also feels incredibly fitting for Sun. Maybe the full song isn't super fitting but it vibes right.

[glassballdinosaurs]

Right?!? It’s SO GOOD!!!! And those are my exact thoughts too.

I’ll have to give “Afraid of the Quiet” a listen later! I only recently discovered Lydia the Bard and I’d love to have more Sun songs for my HHNFLASS playlist!

That part of “I’ve Got No Time to Live” fits Sun SO WELL. I’ve thought about adding it to my playlist too

[inkykuro]

It's absolutely gorgeous!

Oh, you definitely hit a goldmine, she has so many awesome songs! They're not really thematic for Sun but general recs, I really love "Feed Us Your Girls," "Changeling" and "I Only Paint in Red Now"! They're so good.

Yeesss, it fits him perfectly! I say go for it, honestly, because it feels like there's so many ways to interpret the other lyrics to fit him. /v lh

I talk about them all the time. the trick is to find someone you’re comfortable with or someone who’s also not normal about the character.

or you can just be unapologetically crazy.

As a society, we need to go back to understanding that strangers on the internet are, you know, strangers. I feel lately that I'm seeing a rise in 'An author I love blocked me because they took my comment the wrong way' posts on the ao3 subreddit, and then the comment is them calling the author a fucking bitch or something like that.

Don't do this. Tone doesn't translate well in text, and if you don't have a rapport with that author, they are not going to interpret, 'You're a fucking bitch' as, 'Author I hate you for being so talented and making me feel so keenly.' They're going to interpret it as you being an asshole. You can shit talk with your friends because you have an established relationship with them and can distinguish between playful banter and genuine anger. You do not have this with a stranger, no matter how much you like their fics. You will have a much more pleasant time in fandom and not get cockblocked from interacting with your favorite writers if you remember this.

Sun >:D

“We should put Sun in a dress more!” Aight, bet.

So, I didn't want to watch today's episode of TSAMS but I broke a little when I heard that Carme's partner had at least a little voice acting in today's episode, and that he broke up with them over the fucking phone. But that part is all I watched and I don't care to get into the rest of the episode.

Honestly, I thought about it in the past and figured if we were introduced to Carmine's partner, they'd be ridiculously overhated and I ended up getting a bit attached to the concept. Now we'll probably NEVER meet them in canon, but I don't care because I adopted them and I made my own design for them. uwu

Meet Circe, Carme's ex! They're a jester-like Puppet model, I decided to make them from Carmine's world- I do not care if he and Rigel are the only survivors from that world or if the Haven accepts non-Moons- and used star theming to compliment Carme's Moon identity, which mixed into the Puppet model since we usually associate stars with Puppets thanks to our queen from EAPS.

Now, since I noticed in that call that Carmine alluded to conflict between him and his partner, my idea/headcanon is that the conflict came from Circe being like, "Hey, so you're getting really close to that other Moon- way closer than you normally get to people you barely know after a few months, and you've been spending a lot of time with him. I have some concerns," and Carme simply denied that anything was going on and that Circe was being overly jealous/possessive. Of course, Circe's not stupid and Carmine's lack of honesty pissed them off and they took a step back for a while.

They did genuinely love Carme, but they're not someone who puts aside their own feelings and needs to appease others and keep from rocking the boat, so when he breaks up with them over a fucking voicemail they are going to be understandably pissed! They will be civil when he comes back to the Haven, but they're not going to pretend it's all okay or be friends after he left them for someone else and didn't even wait to break up with them face-to-face.

But yeah! That's my lore for Circe so far, I am pleased as punch with their design!

[inkykuro]

I'm working on a new character design and I'm slightly anguished because- for the recent new designs I've been doing, I've been using a trick I learned called laying down a "clown pass" where you use bright, ugly colors to fill in the chunks of design you want to be separate (in my case I'm sectioning off colors,) and with this current one i'm doing, I mostly used shades of purple and it actually looks cute?? But the main purple is eyeburner and I can't actually use that shade augh-

[inkykuro]

Sorta random but I watched the first half of the "Selling Ruin" stream while I was drawing earlier and I'm just gonna put it out there, though I hate him in lore.

Ruin is one of my favorites to watch in gaming episodes or streams. He's a lot more honest/blunt, sardonic and sassy and doesn't put up the whole martyr/tragic hero act. And I think his dynamic with Jack where he mostly tries to get along while Jack ain't having it is really funny, them playing Among Us and then Gambling with Friends is top tier. Ruin screaming at the gambling stuff was super funny, too.

My favorite moment, though, was a chatter saying, "Jack is gambling with Solar's money," and Jack deadass scoffs in amusement and says, "Solar doesn't have that kind of money, he's a technician!" like YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DO YOUR DAD DIRTY LIKE THAT- yes he did it was awesom

i block ppl all the time so my blocklist ranges from "actual fucking asshole fascist" n "post that mildly annoyed me because im petty" and if i went thru my blocklist rn i probably would have no idea why i blocked each of them but whatever

[inkykuro]

Inspired by a convo I'm havin' with a moot, here's my take on fem Old Moon! Remember when Moon had said he wanted to make himself a feminine form to swap into whenever he wanted, like Monty? Before he got his emotions back and got put in the maid dress and was it suddenly "I feel very feminine and I don't like it. I feel vulnerable! ;A;"

Yeah, this is my take on Old Moon if he came back and went through with having a fem form to swap into. The idea just itched my "want to draw" brain, even if I didn't have a super clear idea. So she ended up with a starry romper with fur cuffs and a furry brim to her cap, and the rest is just the same as masc OM.

There's a new Show of the Week going on in the TSBS server for Pride Month, so I decided to revisit my sketch of Eclipse sporting the double demi colors from last year! With the bonus pan flag colors, because it was confirmed in the server that in one of his personal streams, Davis said Eclipse was likely also pan.

MY HEADCANON IS SOMEWHAT RIGHT WOW- /silly v pos

I had fun with this! It was a bit tricky to figure out how to do it with Eclipse's full colors but I like the look of the painted arms, special ribbons and special capelet.

[multifandomcutie13]

I still can’t believe Davis pulled an Alex Hirsch on us. Well played, man. Well played…

[super-smash-girl]

Wow. Interesting choice made there.

[multifandomcutie13]

I will admit, I did believe it. I never knew it had been a fake leak the whole time.

[super-smash-girl]

Yeah, we were all pretty pissed about what we thought what the arc will be. I heard that the VAs were disappointed that the “leak” didn’t spread as much as they wanted it to.

[multifandomcutie13]

Yup. But hey, at least this means people care about how leaks go.

[super-smash-girl]

Yeah, I remember reading a bunch of comments on the post that showed the “leaks” when they happened saying that the OP should delete the post out of respect for the VAs, and a bunch of other posts on here saying to not talk about the leaks, again out of respect to the show.

[multifandomcutie13]

I remember that, yeah.

[super-smash-girl]

I wonder how they feel now knowing that they were doing the opposite of what the show wanted. I’m kind of amazed that this fandom was trying to be respectful with leaks. The VAs underestimated their fans.

[multifandomcutie13]

I mean, after the TADC movie leak (I never saw it, but I heard about it), people had to step up.

[inkykuro]

Never thought I'd say this, but I'm proud of most of the TSAMS fandom.

[inkykuro]

Okay, I just saw the actual clip where it was revealed that it was a leak so let me correct myself: I'm proud of the full fandom now that I understand that the person who originally posted the leak was in on the scheme.

I don't post a lot about TADC but I'm in the fandom and I was genuinely disappointed in that fandom when the final ep was leaked so I'm proud of the TSAMS fandom for being better than that.

Whoopsie daisy, a couple days later than I usually like to upload but here's a new video, featuring both Poppi and Moon as they play the Game of Life 2 together!

It was super duper unintentional but my struggle to bounce dialogue back and forth between them makes Poppi's end read like she only somewhat tolerates Moon, and I can't help finding that pretty funny. XD
