💜 introductory post + links 💜

Hello there!! My name is Mika, I'm a bisexual 21 year old multi-fandom artist that uses she/they pronouns.

I work full-time with children on the spectrum, but I still do freelance art on the side. I write the occasional fanfic every so often, but I'll mostly be posting my artwork on here. But if you're interested in reading my fanfiction, I'll be linking my other socials and ao3 below!

I have an amazing boyfriend, a cute but annoying cat, and a love for movies, comics, videogames and cooking! If you have any comments or questions, whether it's regarding my art or something else, please feel free to send an ask anytime.

I'm currently creating fanart for One Piece, Arcane and Resident Evil. I mostly create digital art, but I do enjoy watercolor and acrylic painting.

actually fucking disgusting that glasses cost any money like if you actually think about it for more than a few seconds it is so unconscionably inhumane. this goes for things like insulin and mobility aids and hearing aids too ofc but fuck man, fucking glasses? the thing you need to fucking see? its genuinely sickening and inhumanly evil that those cost ANYTHING.

Happy Easter Sunday!! Finally started finishing up on a few of my commissions, so I'll be posting more soon. This piece was commissioned by @reverienebula for their Persona AU. I absolutely adored working on this, I loved the challenge of drawing wings as well as a detailed background. Can't wait to post more! 💜

"Moonlit Thieves"

This was such a fun commission to do for my friend @inviernainvicta !! This illustration is based on their ao3 fanfic "Moonlit Thieves", which has the cast of Persona 3 in the setting of Persona 5. Its at over 200k now and there's a new chapter coming out tonight. I highly recommend checking it out, its so amazingly written and even has a dedicated community!

Here's the link:

YOU. WILL. WRITE. oh you want to write so bad. all the motivation is here. the plot is so good. words come to you so naturally. YOU ARE GOING TO WRITE. RIGHT NOW.

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

this. though in my personal opinion, whether or not it’s easy to write (yeah it’s not) is irrelevant. the thing is that people (normies) can’t seem to get the concept of fanfics, and that it’s something writers do for themselves as hobbies and a form of self-care. they write for themselves first and foremost, they’re not writing to please their audiences. you get to read their works for free because they’re kind enough to share their works with you to read for free, if you don’t like what you read, simply stop reading and either go find other fics to read, or write that fic you want to read yourself. don’t be an entitled asshole

[sncrlynwtms]

fandom etiquette as a whole died when people who didn’t grow up on fandoms became stans during lockdown, yes, but why am i seeing people openly mocking fics on twitter. why am i seeing screenshots of fics with captions like “bro what is this 😭.” why am i seeing people mock fic writers for not knowing how sports or theater or college or any other organization operates in the real world.

“college is absolutely nothing like this” “why are we writing four people on the team scoring a hat trick in one game” “so tech work is nothing like this, hope that helps!”

if you don’t like a fic, and if you can’t suspend your belief enough to enjoy a fic that exaggerates or ignores real-world orgs, you don’t have to read it. you don’t have to screenshot it and put it on blast for twitter. you don’t have to post a link to it in the replies. the back button is literally there on your phone. it’s not giving baby’s first fandom anymore, it’s giving entitled asshole and it isn’t as cute as you think it is.

honestly yall just gotta be comfortable reading books that make you feel stupid

[going2hell4everythingbutbeingbi]

read books that you don't understand. read books where you have to pay attention. read books that make you reread a page eight times to figure it out. read books that you need to take notes on. read books with words you have to google. read books that don't make sense without research on the setting. read books that make you feel stupid because otherwise you'll just be stupid.

i did try keeping a diary for awhile but one-time I looked at an entry and it was just "IDONTWANTTOBEALONEANYMORE" written over and over again like a fucking horror movie and the entry right before was like "I made soupe today yay!" so I am like the worst diary keeper ever

Things One Piece is about:

Piracy

Adventure

The power of friendship

Fighting against oppression no matter what form it takes, be it a corrupt king, rival pirates, or a system of government that controls the whole world

The only way to make a change when stuck in a situation that's actively taking away your freedom and rights is by force

Racism and discrimination are complicated issues that cannot be solved over night, it takes a combined effort to reach an understanding and to change people's views, and even if you can't let go of your own hatred because of the horrible things you've experienced, you shouldn't pass that hatred onto the next generation and instead allow them to form their own opinions through their own lived experiences

Freedom and liberation are basic human rights

Everyone, no matter who they are, should have access to food and water

Healthcare should be readily available to anyone who needs it

It's incredibly important to not only learn, but understand and preserve history, because those who seek power will go out of their way to destroy inconvenient information, erasing the stories of those who no longer have a voice, dooming society into forever repeating the same mistakes without ever learning from them

Children shouldn't suffer because of the actions of their parents

Queer people

Finding the One Piece

sometimes you gotta bite the bullet and put "text your friend whom you love and genuinely want to talk to" on your to-do list because otherwise it is not getting done

[crplpunkklavier]

honestly so glad this one is gaining traction. just saw it in my notifications and went "MAN ALRIGHT" to text yet another person i have been genuinely wanting to text back for days
