me when im asking why lord

the redraw of my girl!! kind of early for it to count as "yearly". but i just wanted to try my hand at this composition again to get more used to krita's layers and blending modes :3

Think it's fairly obvious that I'm not exactly the most vocal in this space; a mix of me being a naturally quiet person, me not having anything all that interesting to share, and it's just nice to just watch and share a lot of the stuff that comes into my feed XD With that said, I felt like breaking the silent streak to let ya'll know that I have been working on something fun for a while now; a fanfic for Poppy Playtime I'm currently calling "Recreation". Not sure how best to summarize the plot other than just being a heavy re-imagining the game's story (I've found the whole concept really interesting, but the execution a hot mess ^^; That and I absolutely ADORE Doey the Doughman and have wanted to write about him since Chapter 4's release >u<) I'd say the fic's about... 40-50% done?? The beginning, middle, and end have all been established; for a while now, it's been filling in the details, refining ideas, fixing plot holes and such. Been taking a different approach to this one compared to past fan projects I've worked on. If all works out and I actually see this one finished, I just might revisit those older projects and see what I can do there. ✨ That's all I can think to say for now! Feel free to ask for details if you want, I'll do my best to answer! Later~!! ❤️

i have been in that state where im like "i feel like my ocs are too involved with the mcs and the storyline what if thats cringe" and thankfully i had my boyfriend to babble all my ideas to, which eventually made me realize, who cares?

so, because ive been in this exact state, to those with ocs who:

are very involved with the mcs of their fandom in any way

are extremely powerful

are "too happy" or "too angsty"

have lore that you havent talked about out of fear

are very visually different from the cast

are anything that make you fear about posting them out of fear of being called "cringe"

i am here to tell you: post it anyways. please post it. post about your ocs. writing, art, no matter what you post, someone will be there who marvels at your oc. who thinks it is unique and fun and a wonderful creation brought to their home page.

"what if i get called cringe?" is a very valid concern and ive had that many times when considering posting about my bug fables ocs. but who cares about those people that call you cringe? hit them with your joy and whimsy beam you amazing individual

there will always be people who hate you for having fun. so have more fun to spite them. hit the big red block button and send them on their way to their little pit of misery where everyone has to stick STRICTLY to canon and never even consider straying anywhere away from it

hell i have been nervous to share one of my main ocs for bug fables because shx's literally apart of team snakemouth in an au where she exists. but after the amount of support ive gotten from my boyfriend, ive realized as long as posting about her makes me happy, thats all that matters.

i hope this post inspires someone who is scared like i have been to post the things theyve been scared to. please continue to kill cringe culture because the people that want to scream about things being cringe just. dont know what theyre talking about. like at this points its just sad to see

if you see this post and decide to post that oc or that lore about your oc or something youve been scared to post, pls feel free to tag me, id love to support your ocs and their lore!!

I need to talk more about Hyoro Dorabase, he's literally my favorite character from any media ever yet i've barely talked about him

mainly cuz not only is dorabase obscure af but even within the fandom there's an extreme lack of nuanced discussion on him (which is honestly understandable given how the manga itself portrays him). Like normally i'd be the one watching from the sideline while others whip out in-depth analysis and fanart with incredibly creative interpretations that i can't help but admire and thus form a newfound appreciation of that character.

BUT NOT HERE, for the first time i have to put my own feelings into words and show and tell it in ways that make others see him the way i do and yes it honestly feel amazing being able to basically have a character for myself but AAA it would be so nice if i can discuss it with someone else and see how others who also love him interpret his character, because that's honestly what i love the most about fandoms, seeing familiar characters and things in multiple perspectives.

all of this is to say, this character means a lot to me

My mother, handing me a brand new door handle with entire locking system

"Here. It's for the back door."

Me, staring down at the handle, realizing she wants me to install it"What am I, the man of the house?!"

"Yes."

i hate all social media sites other than tumblr bc if i say a funny little thing about a reference to a character being trans even if they’re not trans redditbros are like “um achksually i’m gonna mansplain dysphoria to you” and also not understand the subtle humor that i feel like other nd n queer people would get right away and also i am right about them being trans
