reply roundup!
aaaa I put it off too long again and the activity page won't load as far back as the last one so there are a couple days of tags and stuff I can't access anymore :( maybe I should start doing these on a regular schedule again since I'm feeling a little better.
also many people provided image descriptions for the disability pride month drawing, @sibillascribbles08 [here], @fish-without-legs [here], @fuzzynecromancer [here], @spoonies-and-knives [here], and @aspensmonster [here]. thank you all for taking the time!
on [inching] @lizzytuffy said: Yes, Kirby, I would still love you if you were a worm :3
I think kirby would make a very cute worm.
on [vacant] @joekingv1 said: *quickly rushes over to baby and tells them that they just saw a really pretty worm and they need to come over and see it*
like I know canonically kirby is afraid of caterpillars but my kirby loves bugs I think.
on [hills] @ceylonsilvergirl said: he needs to roll down that hill. for his health. and then climb the hill again. and then roll down again.
*nods* for his health, obviously.
on [reaper] @eepydreamygenie said: he looks cheerful. I hope he has a good day at work which is probably an odd sentiment?
it's still important work, after all! better to be led peacefully into death by someone who knows what to do than simply be left adrift.
on [fingers] @artfuldodgerrr said: Gonna be real thought these were lego hands at first
yknow what that is entirely reasonable. lego hands are basically finger claws anyway
@polast-u-s asked: Utterly charmed by your lolita kirby. Swoonig, in fact
thank youuuuu I love to put him In and On sweet lolitaaaaa (and other pastel kawaii aesthetics) like imagine. imagine if one of the Brands did a kirby collab. like the moricky collab that came out a while ago. I'm imagining it. it's where he belongs.
on [lightning] @computerbugged said: i love all the kinda useless but rlly creative powers in 64...
same, the whole power combining thing was so fun and cool. like sure, I guess I'm a lightbulb now! I guess I'm a snowman that explodes! I guess I'm a demolition worker with a little hard hat that I must wear to avoid damaging myself. why not. delightful.
on [lightning] @mostgeniusone said: Nice, Kirby 64 makes the abilities satisfying to use, even when they aren't very good. My favorite is Burn-Burn.
true, so satisfying. hard to control, but FWOOOOOOSH
on [flags] @noosedissident said: I saw the kirby with #1 and #2 and the first thought I had was that it was referencing that scene in bottoms [and included a screencap of the main characters' lockers graffitied]
I have not seen bottoms although I'm glad other people seem to be having fun with it! that would be a funny pride flag tho, I can definitely see it working for someone
on [grump] @nogoinghomegame said: how i think randy orton feels when he gets concussed literally every single match
yknow, I don't watch wrestling, but I occasionally enjoy videos about wrestling, so on the very rare occasions someone makes a wrestling joke on one of my posts (I think this is literally the second time it's happened) it still really tickles me lol (the other I can recall is when someone reblogged "do not fuck with me" and just tagged it "roman reigns")
on [tiny] @ceylonsilvergirl said: this dude is ready for a trip through the body on the magic schoolbus
this immediately activated the secret tape in my head that just plays the theme song on loop. the magic school bus computer games were not good I don't think but I did play them to death so I still kind of miss them sometimes. wahahahoo..........
on [crying] @graycoin said: re: the tags, Kirby canonically has snot in the SNES games at least. his anatomy is like whatever works really, mans be made of dreams and maybe a black hole also
valid. kirby has a very vibes-based biology. (I do appreciate all the people who can remember more about the games than "there was a little guy there and he jumped and ran and it was fun :) " which is basically how I process them lol)
on [commissions] @the-void-is-a-disappointment said: tehee tysm for the awesome commissions! my first your flag here (bottom left) is personal cus it has (some of) my flags lol :3 and my second your flag here (bottom right) is my headcanons/flags for the kirbo themself! :D also im really into dogman rn so... gotta combine the hyperfixations lmao
that's wonderful! thank you for the support! and I can totally see where you're coming from with the headcanon flags. (also I saw a trailer for the dogman movie shortly after drawing this and I was like "oh nice I bet they're excited" altho ofc adaptations can sometimes be a letdown)
@euphoniousraconteur asked: I have seen the Gorb around but only just learned today that you're a queer disabled artist!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🌈♿ Hurray!!! Thank you for the Gorb!
hell yeah dude! I always get excited too when I find out an artist I follow is disabled lol although I think I talk about it a little more than average (tbh I'm more surprised to find out someone isn't queer these days tho, my friend group has a heavy skew getting heavier all the time)
on [disability pride] @nebularowboat said: i just learned about disability pride! check out the gorb when you can theyre great. i need to take this moment to appreciate gorb, they go thru so much but theyre still so positive. i love their art so much
aww thank you ;n; I think that being at least a little open about things like physical and mental health struggles when you've got a bit of a platform like I do can be really helpful to others, but I still worry sometimes that I complain too much. so little notes like this occasionally are really buoying <3
on [disability pride] @lebanesetoaster said: oh right, I always forget that’s a thing. disabled high five or whatever. but not too hard because joking aside that actually fucking hurts everywhere
*very gently taps our hands together*
on [disability pride] @fridaynightgrimmdark said: Bold to assume either month ever truly ends. Anyway hugs to all my fellow chronically ill gay weirdos. (also if you havent gotten that moblity aid youve been debating: just get it. if youre debating it you probably need ot. my cane is the best)
yessssss so true! if you think a brace might help try using a brace! if you think scheduled breaks might help try taking scheduled brakes! if you think a mobility aid might help try using a mobility aid! (if you're not sure it's worth the money some places will let you borrow them to test out, like a wheelchair at the zoo or a scooter at the grocery store. some communities may also have access to "mobility aid libraries" where you can borrow them for a longer period of time.) accommodating yourself doesn't make you sicker, if anything it makes you healthier because you're reducing the additional strain on you. I love my whole closet full of mobility aids and I can't wait to move to a place where I can more easily get them out of the house on my own.
@seanthedracunyan asked: So precious. Kirby deserves every hug. I'll give him my hug everyone make congo like to give Kirby a hug
line up everyone! kirby is always ready for hugs.
@jesterthezombie asked: apples or bananas?
I think kirby would prefer apples cuz he doesn't have to deal with a tenuously-edible peel. I like both for different purposes. (apples for slicing and eating, bananas for putting in smoothies and milkshakes.) one time my longest friend started singing that "apples and bananas" song where you keep swapping in new vowels during lunch in high school and made herself laugh for like the entire lunch period.
on [skank] @harcourtfentonmudd said: My girlfriend loves Kirby and I often send her your Kirbies to brighten her day and this one is gonna be a doozy
aww that's so cute :') I hope she enjoyed it lol
on [content] @weesheshy said: korb. your art would taste like a pom-pom (positive)
see to me a pompom tastes like cotton, which is Bad Texture, so I don't actually know what you mean. but I know it is lovely to have a thought about how someone's art would taste, so this still makes me happy thank you :)
on [puddle] @ceylonsilvergirl said: I spent yesterday babysitting a preschooler, it was so much fun. She was such a cutie. But the entire day was vaguely like this. Why is this area wet? how did it get wet? Please tell me this is just water. Please please just be water
I think cats and toddlers have a lot in common because of this. why are you damp? does it require cleaning products? you can't actually tell me why you're damp because you are small. but also I can't really get mad at you because you are small and it probably isn't your fault even if it was caused by your actions. you are yelling and I don't know if you are Upset or just Loud. at least cats sleep a lot more and you can call them whatever names you want as long as you're not using the Mean Voice.
on [thumbs up] @erangel625 said: is kirby doing pushups here?
he certainly could be! death of the author baybee (I intended him to just be lying facedown on the floor but it is no longer in my hands)
on [nose] @kingdedede8 said: yes, but this one is cursed in a good way
valid, and noted. noses are cursed.
on [jar] @newleechonlife said: I leave for (checks watch) 3 hours and I've been peer reviewed??? by OP??? you're welcome??????
(even if I forget to do reply roundups for Several months in a row. I am always checking the reblogs and replies a couple times a day. it's fun!)
on [torn] @eepydreamygenie said: I like the idea of Kirby being a marshmallow. I also just love the idea of marshmallows in general. I remember when I was little I was obsessed with food network and idk why or what show, but a French chef had explained that marshmallows were originally made by a pharmacist using mallow root to help sooth sore throats and the they were sweetened so children would have an easier time eating them. is it true? probably not but I remember how kind his voice was when he said it, and I could easily imagine him making something like that for a kid who wasn’t feeling well. anyway if you got through all that you deserve a marshmallow ❤️
that's so sweet :') my brother and I used to watch food network all the time too, I don't think I ever saw that one but it sounds so soothing and nice.
on [baseball] @ollieowo said: The moment hockeys over I’m like
I love that the tumblr hockey fandom is slowly learning the joys of baseball. I think the two sports have a lot in common in terms of Vibes, even if the mechanics and pace are very different. (imo there are two components to how one can engage with a sport, whether or not you Understand it on like a mechanical and strategic level, and whether or not you Get it on an emotional level. I do not Understand hockey but I Get hockey and consequently I believe hockey fans will Get baseball even if they do not Understand. as point of comparison, I Understand american football but I do not Get it.)
on [mariners] @theaviskullguy said: mariners fan kirby canon. i feel like saying his favorite player is george kirby would be a copout, so i think his favorite would be arozarena. i. did not spell that right i dont think
see I think kirby's favorite would be julio, because he's the one most visibly invested in being Fun and making it a Good Time for the fans and kirby loves fun and a good time. (also you spelled it right, I looked it up)
