Slides in with my sifloop since I didn't draw anything else that I am willing to share (gatekeeping my isa and odile drawings forever)

And these stupid little things

nothing fills me with joy more than people on twitter talking about how down bad for eric assad is. even through (performative or genuine) eric hatred, rpf prevails.

hey so just to combat the narrative tommy's trying to so pathetically push about how "i made the dream smp famous and because of that i made dream famous", my cousins from rural indonesia and their friends knew dream from his viral manhunts and speedruns, and one from the technoblade duel. but when i brought up "tommyinnit" no one knew who he is 😁

Painting rework 8 I was unhappy with the two lines at the left and right of the picture so they’ve been over-painted.  I tweaked some other areas in a subtle manner, too.

do you think chase saw robert during that interview in ch1 and saw his arm in that sling. do you think he noticed it was the same arm, dislocated in pretty much the same way. and him feeling some type of way about it. that twinge of sadness, of familiarity.

I'm trying to experiment more with editing and doing the whole remake of N&E landscapes and characters, so I'm going to take the last post as the end of the arc with the flashback and try something new for the next chapters.

One of my greatest gripes in the context of the comics about Feliks is that the narrative seems to isolate him for one reason alone: it's that he's reserved for Tolys in every sense of the word.

Feliks narratively served as Tolys', the author's initial self-insert (in my theory), love interest in reserve. Not the obvious one, but in subtext is. The boy next door. Outside the context of WWII in the comics, Feliks' role was always to uplift Tolys while always in the wait. Tolys was allowed to travel oceans and find new friendship and bonds, he was allowed to navigate new environments, yet one thing was constant: he would always find Feliks at home. Should he feel sad, or weak, or dejected, Feliks was always there to cheer him up, beauty and charm all for him.

Oh, you're feeling down? Look, let me make your world brighter. Let's give it color: pink and glitters!

You've worked twenty hours and your boss wasn't even impressed? Look, that's super awful. Let's totally go to the park and eat out. (You're treat, though.)

You've suffered too many scars. Let's patch you up.

That's 2010's Feliks' narrative importance in the story. To be Tolys' dedicated manic pixie daydream boy. The only other friendship he is allowed in the narrative is with the author's other favorite character: Feliciano.

He isn't allowed any other friendships or bonds other than Tolys. He isn't even allowed to mingle with the other two Baltic personifications. He couldn't even stand alone as a character because the narrative made sure of that. That's the narrative choice the author had in favor of his once self-insert.

Feliks is given the narrative and subtext yoke other anime female characters who is reserved for one guy alone bore. There's a pattern.

We're talking about the personification of Poland, the one person who crawled from the depths of hell with bloodied fingers all alone and many times over. The one person who kept rescuing himself throughout history. Being reduced as a dedicated manic pixie. Bruh.

This realization was what pushed me to find other ships for Feliks.
