I followed a bunch of askblogs in 2012ish and had An Experience + I love OCs and I want to know more about yours • early 30s now, baby when this blog was made • likes from wingandheartstrings • most of my art is elsewhere, DM if you want that blog
Due to the activities taking place within the fandom this season, I'd like to get to know you better and learn more about a particular OC, or your own sona. Feel free to give me a suggestion for a gift or an idea for your own gift. I can't promise to follow anything exactly, but I would really like to try to make you something personalized while adhering to the gift guidelines and trying to make you happy. Thank you very much. 💗
You're so sweet and thorough?? I love this message.
I'll give some background/options under the cut because I'm erring on the side of more information not less. But if that's too much, the next paragraph is the most important!
I don't want to shoehorn you into drawing something you don't like or know. So, dealer's choice, you could just do anything that strikes your fancy! I don't have tiktok so I'm not really aware of what's happening over there. But if that's where your favorite stuff is, you could draw that! I'm going to love it no matter what.
I got into the fandom in 2012-2013 pre-deoncelerization, during the initial askblog boom, have stuck around the fandom in some capacity since then. Its members have grown as artists, writers, and people, and it's been a blast to follow along. This blog is a record of all the fun I've had over the years!
In the Thornville High universe I most closely followed the groups with Nyx, Rocky, Spook, etc, and the one with Bitter, One, Swag, Oglesby, Sheep, Audrey, etc. (and a bunch of other in-universe blogs). In high school I cosplayed Bitter and Swag at different conventions and in college I cosplayed One.
In Truffula Flu I most closely followed Entre's camp, with Audrey, Bean, Ted, Entre, Swag, Bitter, One, Rocky, 72, etc. and again, a bunch of other in-universe blogs. I'm sure I'm missing key names in every category by writing on the fly.
I interacted for a few summers in Camp Deehawken/Weehawken on tumblr! And I joined the server to try to keep up with stories, though I did fall behind because of work and Art Fight.
I like the askblogs that didn't deoncelerize or went on to different paths too! And I've enjoyed all of those I've seen crop up in the last few years. Off the top of my head, standouts include bat-ler, steampunk, sheep, Miru's Audrey, insomnia, Halloween, articskele's characters, and I'll stop there so it doesn't get overwhelming.
I have one william OCs and an artsona, but I'm gonna pare it down to two that I've had in the fandom space before: Bee and POTLTS (personification of The Last Truffula Seed, I don't know why teen me didn't give her a name). I'll post about them asap, but don't feel pressured to do OC stuff if you'd rather not!
