talk shop tuesday! as an OC haver, do you have a character design (or prop, or location) that you are really proud of? is it overall design or some elements that make it your favourite?

omg an OC ask... vryfmi exposing me as an OC haver..........

[takes a deep breath]

I think at the moment, the OC design I'm most fond of is Mei's – she's a quick-witted witch with a white ferret familiar named Clementine – and she's had the most art of any of my characters in artfight so far:

(these are just 2 of 7 attacks so far!! made by the incredibly lovely @harleyhasguessed and BaliSTAR. LOOK AT THEM!! SO GORGEOUS)

she's openly a lesbian and very much embraces queer community/culture, which is reflected in her fun clothing and accessories! though the aspect of her design that tends to stand out most is Clem :) it was so long ago that I created her I can't remember why exactly I picked a white ferret, but I like how unconventional it is. fun fact: Clem is her late mother's familiar that was passed down to her!

do I want to be Mei or be with Mei??? no one knows

Hi, do you happen to know of a webcomic that was coming out at about the same time as check please, it was about some people who worked in a diner or something… maybe something about pies, milkshakes, or roller skates? The colors were more on the pinker side I think- looking around to see if any omgcp fans have any clues! Thanks!

hi anon!! I can think of two webcomics that sort of fit that aesthetic – neither of them are about diner workers so I don't think these are quite what you're looking for, but I hope it's still helpful!

Rock and Riot by Chelsey Furedi – originally published in 2015, set in the 1950s, teenage gangs with lgbtq+ themes, pinkish colour schemes

Band vs Band by Kathleen Jacques – originally published in 2014, more 50s aesthetic, rival bands with lgbtq+ themes, pink & blue colour scheme

Once you get this, you have to say five things you like about yourself, publicly. Then you send this to ten of your favourite followers (positivity is cool!!)🌈🌈

ahh thank you, this is so sweet!!

my OCs are really cool B)

I like that I found the confidence to post my fic and art online, I've made some incredible friends through it and grown in skill!

also, I think I write good dialogue (especially for L&Co <3)

I'm really good at what I study and have the potential to do well in the industry I'm aiming for after graduation

I'm pretty resilient, if I get knocked down I have the strength to drag myself back up again

<3!!
