Not Traditional Fire

Melody, 34. About Me.

[soartfullydone]

I got the surprise of my life today. Ashley Cope finished my commission of Bastion and my OC, Riven, and frankly, this is the most coherent I've been all day! Look at them! I'm losing my mind!!! The scenario, according to God: Riven tried sneaking into one of Bastion's hideyholes, and he just has to play with her~

I have dreamed of seeing Riven in Ashley's style for years now, to the point where I haven't commissioned anyone else. So when the last fanworks contest included a commission as a possible prize, I had to contribute a piece to it. I had to shoot my shot—so let this be your sign if you've ever thought about submitting a piece, do it! Shoot your shot! (And thank you, again, everyone who participated and voted.)

If you haven't, please read Unsounded and support Ashley through her Patreon. She is actively updating the last chapter of Book 1, so now is a great time to experience this phenomenal story.

i don’t feel like debating that topic much farther bc truthfully if it comes down to “women will lose to men in every sport bc they don’t have as much testosterone!!!!!” my elite feminist response is honest to god “ok we will lose with honor as equals instead of having our own special Easy Mode Female category so we can win amongst ourselves” like i’m sorry i just can’t be persuaded. i’m a brick wall. i want co-ed sports

[thesituation]

i bring a sort of “women can lose at some sports against men if it means being regarded as equals” vibe to the debate that “testosterone objectively increases performance” people don’t really like

Tempted to actually put this on spotify so I can secretly stream it at work...

Tagging @batshit-auspol because as an Australian you're the only big account I know who might share (sorry).

A happy birthday to my favorite cursed king

By the way, it’s my birthday today, and for the past four years I’ve been drawing my FFXIV characters especially for this day (not that anything stops me from drawing them on other days, but it’s my little tradition).

[zacksfairest]

after an absolutely miserable and exhausting week and a half, i found out that ashley cope stealth-canonized my babygirl in Unsounded this past week?????????

I'm insane. I'm exhausted. My brain isn't functioning. I can never be normal about this. I will NEVER recover from this.

Is there any caste you're particularly fond of drawing?

Boring answer, but all of them. And let me tell you why:

Coppers: Absolutely zany. Some of them are not only freakishly tall, but malproportioned. The younger ones have weird pink and red eyes, or they dress like freaking weirdos. I'm obsessed with Valentin at the moment because he looks like a somber vampire but is always sleepy and sedate like a bored grandpa. It's just fun to pose him.

Jets: Hot, they're all hot. Black hair and deathly pale skin; they reawaken my teenage goth self. And they're always so bitchy. Thackery is so, so fun because he's so mad almost all the time, at everyone.

Bronze: Beautiful earthiness that contrasts so well with the weirdos. They want to be scruffy, and I want to let them be scruffy. Tree will get increasingly scruffy as the comic goes along.

Gold: Dorks, insular dorks that no one likes and you can almost see why no one likes them even aside from the Dammakhert weirdness, they come off aloof and over-serious. Also their hair is SO yellow, it makes them look even dorkier.

Silvers: Hot, earnest, with those piercing blue eyes against that beautiful medium complexion. They almost look like normal people but the colouration is just off enough that you have to look twice.

Plats: Insane, exploited, doomed, beautiful, ridiculous. In some cases, twisted and wrong. Prepare to see why Quigley was so goddamned mad all the time, and what Vienne died trying to stop.

I love all my stupid weirdos, Anon, I always have.
