It's both infuriating and super funny when ppl talk about how digital art isn't "real art" and is "basically as bad as ai" right before playing their favorite video games and watching modern anime. Like. Buddy. Do you wanna guess how those were made .....?????
Saya has been stuck in a monotonous timeloop of her last year of high school for two long, boring decades. Yet somehow, she doesn't really seem to mind. After all, she doesn't have many responsibilities, she gets to see her friends every day, and there's a bit of comfort in the routine she's found herself in. Wouldn't anyone want to stay young forever, if only they could?
What's the harm in never growing up?
This is a oneshot idea I've had for a while now and finally started working on today :3 I thought it would be interesting to explore the idea of someone who's deeply afraid of facing the changes in their life, and has become complacent, through the metaphor of a timeloop. This is a bit of a personal one, and I'm still getting the hang of making comics again, but I hope you all enjoy it regardless!

TAG YOUR MOOTS AND MAKE THEM EXPLAIN THEIR USERNAMES LORE
Starting with me:
Hyyl18 because when i was youngest i had a group in a random app with some friends and i didnt knew qhat username to use so i decided to create one with things i used to read since we were talking abt fanfic in this group so: Hot Yaoi Yuri Lemon +18 stuff (i was in my dirty era dont dare to judge me). Hyyl18 thats it. Now i use it everywhere yay
@patroclus-is-the-bigger-person @b4rty-r0s13r-w1ll-fck-y0ur-m0m @cuntyteardrop @glassesgirlies @leninthestarlight @bardorsomethinglikethat anyone else who wanna join tbh yay
So mine comes from among us, specifically around the time they added the account feature and you could generate random names and at some point i got "privygrid" and it like immediately resonated with me so i use it everywhere now
tags with my questions/guesses below the cut
@chocymilkmilo (i mean ik but im still gonna tag) @viktorscuntywaist (i wonder) @ebulatheduck (why duck???) @boosterseat3 (random words?) @plutonium-17 (chemistry person) @cyxnmoon (i always fuck up ur name at first when im typing it) @kasane-poteto-chip (p o t e t o) + whoever wants to join
i need to make like a moot list cuz i know im forgetting people, sorry if i forgot you ily
my username is nebula without the first letter, and that's actually the name of basically an oc i have who's a duck, and she's a duck because i had (and still have) an obsession with ducks when i was maybe 9 years old. it's explained more here
tags below the cut (holy hell i have so many mutuals)
During covid I was playing roblox with my brother and we decided to change our display names in a game so we wouldn't know who we were (it was kinda like a murder mystery type game) and when I couldn't think of a name I looked to my surroundings, and I'm 99% sure I had drawn a "dum flowr" doodle on a sticky note. And I've just kept it since cuz tbf it gets the jist of who I am
Mine hasn’t changed since I first got on tumblr as a 12 year old xD Breeze is my name and for the second part I love the song Moon River, also I was at the height of my moon!Varian obsession and I love to swim -> water -> river so it was a funny coincidence that it matched :3 also it sounded very fancy and aesthetic to young me xD
Hm, aight! Basically, this one's an old one, barring the 300 i've started adding :v About uh... fifteen or more years ago, one of my fave games was Bionicle Heroes for the PC (i had a pirated copy my dad got me :3 ) and well...
@scribbl3dog (my main), I've always loved to draw and write, so scribble, and I was fairly certain that my fursona would stay a dog, hence the dog, the 3 in the username is just there to look cool (and also since @scribbledog already exists), the 3 was inspired by the titles of Femtanyl songs
@scribblethedog (roleplay blog), I liked the scribble in my username so much that I made it the name of my fursona, who eventually branched out into her own character,
@thefatjolteon (reblog blog) was originally thefatflareon, but I really like yellow so I used jolteon so I could make the blog extra yellow, I used an eevelution since my sister really likes eevee and often makes us play where we both have to be eeveelutions where I always choose either flareon or jolteon, the 'fat' is self-expalantory, it flowed a bit better when I was called flareon but I kept it when I switched to Jolteon since there aren't a lot of adjectives starting with J that I vibe with
My username, realbakedtoast/BakedToast, is pretty stupid tbh. It comes from the fact that I wanted a good online username to attract attention as a content creator.
I was thinking about names that I could go by one night and ended up with BakedToast because I found the idea of bread that you toast in an oven silly since it's toast that wasn't made in a toaster, but it's still called toast.
And that's basically it! That's where it came from lol!
Your turn, moots!
@bobo-kix @softholly @tbcbtq-v-real @kibble-mp4 @bitchwholikesrobots @red-cedar @soysaucelobster @ziekkfreak2-0 @iamaconfusedbisexual @staarbug @thestrangebleble @wd-jax @tob1xas @ethmo1d @pouringplumwine @lwlfire @viridiancolors @nerdman23 @whenyrplayingdead @roadkillcritter @strangelycasualhorror @lazynameforme @polteghost @deargoditsallperidot @ser1al-designation-n @unofficialaziraphale @midnightbloggo @tutullyunreal + all my other moots that I may have forgot to tag!
Tbh I don't remember where thestrangebleble came from, I think I originally just wanted thestrange but it wasn't available. However, my display name Robin originally came from half from my love for Robin birds and half because my favourite artist at the time was called Robin. However, now the reason is just because I love Robin birds because the artist turned out to be problematic asf and also because I transformed into a Robin so I thought I'd keep the name.
For my username, Petunia is the name of one of my old fursonas which is a flying magic cat
My blog name Trashgoblin was a nickname for one of my pet cats because she used to climb into the trashcan and fall asleep there as a kitten, but also it fits me because I'm really into doing goblincore type stuff and reusing materials for crafts that would otherwise be thrown away, or adding shiny bits and baubles I find laying around outdoors that I take home (of course I wash whatever I find on the ground)
It used to just be "sophisticatedpjs", just because I thought it sounded funny/suited me when I was 15. After that it kind of just stuck, but I tweaked it so now it fits more with the soft aesthetics and fashion styles I tend to incorporate into my work (makes me picture a cute teaparty at a sleepover instead of a singular person in pajamas). I think it still suits me!
