Following last year’s tradition, I made my own prediction for the Hirogaru Sky Precure team! Since there are wings and a pen in the logo I thought of letters, and what bird is historically known for carrying messages? Pigeons! So the main themes for these two mailgirls are Paper & Pen and pigeons: the pink cure is based on fancy pigeons and the blue cure on city pigeons. After using the background from the official website I tried making one of my own! Yes I know about the leaked names but I didn’t really consider them a lot while making these, they need some names of their own XD

Image Description: Two magical girls, standing with open arms and holding a yellow envelope with one hand each, they’re similing and looking at the camera, against a gradient blue, pink and yellow cloudy background. The one on the left wears various shades of pink and lilac with yellow accents, and her hair is shaped like wings, with a ponytail on top that looks like feathers, and curled bangs. The one on the right wears several shades of blue, cool purple and teal with yellow accents, her hair fades from white to teal and is gathered in two knee lenght braids, whose ends are shaped like fountain pen nibs. Both girls wear a vest with tails that look like feathers, leg warmers and loose sleeves, with several feather shapes recurring in skirts and sleeves. They both have a yellow sparkle on their chest and yellow sparkles in their eyes.

Since Artfight is approaching, I feel motivated to make more reference pages for my characters! Here's Giorgio :D He used to work for the Agency (rival organization to the Archive that rents and sells magic items instead of lending them). The magic item assigned to him is a pink prehensile scarf, which he was supposed to give back once he got fired for allegedly "not being productive enough". However, Giorgio managed to keep the scarf, insisting that "no one else wanted it anyway and I like it". Now he's doing gigs and occasionally avoiding crossing zealous Agents who might be after him in hopes of a promotion!

some hyper famous artists like Van Gogh transcend overratedness and become underrated because they're so normalized. Like I'll look at a van Gogh and I'm like wait this really is amazing you guys don't get it

Shakespeare is like this

[insufferablepirate]

Every time I see a Van Gogh that’s not one of his better known pieces it absolutely blows me away

Have you seen this shit my liege? smh unreal

The Month of May-bel 2026 has ended. I wanna thank all the artists, fanfic writers and more who participated this year. We had some amazing fan art, fanfics and edits made to celebrate and you all really did an amazing job. Thank you so much!

This year was also emotional as it is the FINAL Month of May-bel! As I said at the start of the month, the reason I am choosing to end it is due to various factors; the original goal of the event being achieved in that Mabel's overall reputation in the fandom is pretty much mended and better than it was when this event idea started, my own personal declining interest in continuing to host it to focus on other things and in general, ending it alongside other GF character month events that concluded this year like @stanuary and @forduary.

The original origin of May-bel Month was Mabel Pines appreciation week from 2015 and then later @themonthofmaybel blog which hosted it until 2019 when I took over after they failed to host one for 2020. I've said in past years that this would be it, but this year I genuinely feel that way due to the above points. Does that mean May-bel month is over forever? Not really. I don't own the event. I just took over hosting it. If you wanna take over in 2027 and host your own event, by all means, please do. I think the amount of art we had this year really shows there is still an interest in May-bel month. If you have the idea and the interest, feel free to do so. I'll of course be here to share and reblog all the work if so.

This really is the end of an era. I've hosted this event for a huge majority of my time in the Gravity Falls fandom. It's always been a joy and as someone who was out there defending Mabel from the insanity that she had to endure within the fandom's hate era for her, it makes me so happy to see how much the fandom once again loves and supports her. It makes all those years of support for her character worth it. And so long as that is the case, May-bel month will always be a part of that legacy. Gravity Falls is real, and it will NEVER die!

Thank you again, everyone who participated. Below is a list of all artists featured and who made something for this year.

saying "question mark?" and "however comma," out loud are game changers. punctuation on the go. and it's always the funniest thing that anyone around you has ever heard

[lovinglapislazuli]

Right in time for the last day of Maybel, @bleubudgie, @snowyroxx22 and I worked together on this illustration! Budgie made the original sketch and lineart, I did the flat colors and Snowy took care of the shading, background and extra texture in the zazzy version! Banding together to create art is something that feels much in spirit to Mabel's character, I'm so happy we could celebrate her this way <3

I've been talking with a friend about ninjago dragons rising lately and I realized that I feel so disappointed about what the show did with the forbiden five is because I have seen another show that had a similar villain and honestly it did way better with what be considered a quarter of the screen time that the forbiden five got. I'm talking about Solitus in Rebuild the Galaxy.

Because, man, Solitus only was on screen for three episodes and half and yet he had more charisma (and power) than the forbiden five combined. You can literally figure out how Solitus powers work, and how dungerous he is, and his main goal. Meawhile most of the info about the Forbiden Five (their elemental powers as well) were given offscreen by the writers on their social media. And the forbiden Five were teased for two seasons (seasond 2 part 1 and 2), officially debuted in season 3 part 1 (and then killed off in that same season) then in part 2 of season 3 they didn't even had any dialogue.

if anyone feels bad that their fic might contain medical inaccuracies, be comforted to know that whatever creative liberties you take with your medical scenes can never be worse than the one I just read. where one character tries to stop the bleeding on their friend's head wound by putting a tourniquet around their neck
