Happy Easter! Whinter's favourite animals are rabbits but not sure he's that happy to share the space with some of these bunnies. A delightful commission I got to work on. I love these themed fan art pieces.

Commissions are open! If you'd like an art piece or even a comic made by me, check out my site. Thank you!

Sluggo bottles up his feelings, but it's not as bad as it sounds.

I like that Fear is prepared for several different scenarios, like having a flashlight when in a dark room

Or having a parachute when falling to his doom.

I have never spoken of my past to anyone. A part of me wonders: Will I melt, upon speaking it?

You know what truly aches all that you are? Having so much inside you and not having the slightest clue of how to pour it out.

Pink Pony Club by Chappell Roan is for the emotionally repressed girlies who spent their entire teenage years in a small boring town seen as the unproblematic girl and dreaming to one day move out into the big city and do something you actually wanted to do since forever but unable to do so because of the fear of being judged or their parents disappointment. to finally settle in a place where people are more accepting and progressive and mind their own business so you could have your fun and express yourself better, to find bigger community where you could feel safe to be around people who are like you. to finally find a sense of self you feel confident in.

it was just a fun party song for me before I actually read the lyrics and see myself in it, except I haven't left "Tennessee" yet. I haven't manifested my "crazy visions in LA" yet. I haven't even gotten into the "Pink Pony Club" yet. so it's a sad song for me.

edit: THAT SONG ALSO REMINDS ME OF LADYBIRD

or maybe i was just projecting
