Hey, Doc! Just letting you know I was part of the Love Never Dies stream and it was so much fun! I'd love to watch more musicals/ballets/plays with you (and Jet, but she doesn't have to be there) :D

I THINK I AM GOING TO, THIS NEXT MONTH IF I CAN FIND ROOM, HATESTREAM HAMILTON. 

FOLKS I FUCKING HATE HAMILTON. I HATE IT SO SO MUCH

(for musicals I actually love I may do Oklahoma or Bye Bye Birdie)

I’M MOST DEFINITELY BUYING IT AND YOU’RE ALL INVITED TO CROSS THE OCEAN TO PLAY WITH ME AND FLATMATE. MANY DRINKS INVOLVED.

it’s cause when GAYS do it, they fucking remember that gay characters are, ya know, characters with arcs and not objects for the straight characters to cry over. If you can replace a gay character with a lamp that’s really important to the main character and its destruction has the same effect, then you’re just a bad writer.

Hey, Jet, can you tell me the secret to how you became such a huge NEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRD?

OH KAT LIKE I CAN TEACH YOU ANYTHING YOU HAVE LONG SURPASSED ME IN THIS AND I HAVE COME TO A PLACE OF PEACE WITHIN MYSELF AT YOUR REACHING HEIGHTS TO WHICH I COULD NEVER ASPIRE

I don’t usually get sketchbooks these days because I’ve found I’ve become spoiled by digital art–and my traditional art is so sketchy I’m not sure I could ever color it. When I used to get a sketchbook, I didn’t have that much money or fancy places to go so I used to pop into CVS and buy one the skethbooks for kids. They have good quality paper, the down size is that they only hold like 100 pages.

Hey totally understandable. When I started getting used to using tablets, I used to just work straight away in the programs instead of my books. I suppose with time I found that the doodles I’d spit out on paper were easily potentials for finished art, so the books came back again as a place for me to hash out ideas. 

My very first sketchbooks were also cheap. Meant for students or kids, falling apart after a few uses. I also used to buy sketchpads so I could keep the work I wanted and throw out anything I didn’t. Occasionally you can find an interesting sketchbook among these selections. The book I use for those silmil drawings is a cheap ol thing but man, is it fun to use. 

As for those special finds, I refuse to touch my process blue Baron Fig. It’s the coolest lil thing and I’m like afraid to soil it with garbage, or even rough up the cover. Same with you, I’d love to see some of those notebooks you hold dear. The Witch Book has caught my curiosity.

okay but look how happy Michiru was and then LOOK AT HER WHEN SHE GETS SHOT DOWN. MICH.

“This is what being genuine with my feelings leads to. I see. It’s not a mistake I’ll make twice.”

YOU KNOW WHAT FUC YOU I was thinking about this really hard the other day that she’s such a bad bullshit artist. She tries so hard to be aloof or cool or ANGRY but deep down the realest moments we ever see with her is LOVE EVERYTHING or when she’s being kind of the girls or not getting Michiru’s teasing. HARUKA TENOH AIN’T A WARRIOR SHE’S A SOFT HEARTED DORK WHO CAN NAME EVER PIECE OF A CAR’S INTERIOR OFF THE TOP OF HER HEAD

HONESTLY NERD THIS IS WHY I GET SO SAD WHEN I DON'T SEE HER INCLUDED IN SENSHI FAMILY STUFF. (not outers family where she still has to play a role, but like the inners all loving and supporting each other but Haruka's just not included)

like Michiru could give a good goddamn if anyone likes her or not, tbh. BUT HARUKA, Haruka so obviously wants that kind of connection and family and warmth and I get so sad when I see her left out of thatbecause Y'ALL KNOW Haruka would fall asleep in a senshi friendship pile once she felt safe to be herself with the all the girls and LESBIANS ALSO HAVE?? FRIENDSHIP NEEDS?? Like we have emotional connections outside of our partners and she is such a dramatic well-meaning nerd all the time and she loves her wife and wants friends and I love her SO MUCH AND I WANT HER TO BE INCLUDED

presidentnerd replied to your post: Tell me something beautiful and soft and gay,...

I got one for you: the first time Haruka holds Michiru’s hand in public and Michiru realizes Haruka’s not going to pull back this time

At first, Michiru thinks it must be some mistake. Just an accidental brush of Haruka’s hand as they walk side by side, and it would be the height of Michiru’s foolishness to believe, one more time, that Haruka would reach back to her.

But then she feels the tremble and the tightness in Haruka’s body, and she nearly has to chuckle--this girl has faced her own death with less fear and trepidation than trying to hold Michiru’s hand.

And then Michiru feels another tremble, and realizes it is her, too.

Haruka nearly withdraws her hand, out there too long, too afraid that she has rejected Michiru too many times and her chances are all used up. But Michiru jumps. She cups Haruka’s hand in hers, awkwardly at first (It has been so long since Michiru knew what it felt to be awkward, to be uncertain, and there is a freedom in that) but they find a rhythm as they walk, and their hands begin to fit just a little tighter.

She looks over at Haruka, who gives her a little smile, so different from that girl on the battlefield, something soft in her eyes, and Michiru knows the seed that has been sleeping in her heart has a place to grow.
