I stayed late bc my coworker (now boss) felt somewhat unsafe bc we had a break in at work two days ago (which I offered, don't have a problem with and I completely understand) but then she takes so long doing more stuff that I leave another 30min later which is just like cmon girl...I just spent 11 hours at work for u can u hurry the fuck up 😭

Too late to wish me ill wills.

A part of me died already when I stopped regularly making Undertale content for my mental health.

Have a doodle.

Hey hey, we like Frans of any gender, right?

You know Female Frisk with Sans, Non-Binary Frisk with Sans, and some good old Male Frisk with Sans

But guys

Guys

…

…

Why not make it Female Frisk with FEMALE Sans!!!

WE CAN OPEN DOORS WITH THIS GUYS!

I’m not even done cooking with MomoTale AU (or ForsakenTale, if any one is interested) but I want to make another wlw Frans AU, I got a concept idea really…like why not?

And if not AU, how about just fanart if genderbent Sans with Female Frisk in preexisting AUs?

Idk I suddenly got reminded that I never seen anyone make a lesbian Frans AU in all of my years shipping these dorks, and I been shipping these idiots since FOREVER!

I’m not really expecting much out of this post. But if I’m the only going to feed this fandom with wlw Frans, then damn, that’s sad cuz I’m so damn inconsistent posting on my socials

Anyways let’s have a conversation about it! It could invite more folks into the fandom again that ain’t just older fans visiting or previous fans of SoL!

Too tired to do literally anything so have these old doodles I haven't shared

DATV Rant

Why is it that Bellara points out the lack of distinction between spirits and demons, saying they're the same thing in the first ten minutes of her being introduced, and then proceeds to bring up demons for the rest of the game?

It's like they wanted Merrill but without her charm or wit.

I'm giving DATV another go and I'm immediately hit with the sense that they tried to make a rug and ended up with shitty macrame with all these loose ends that lead nowhere.

Also, we're told Elgy and Ghil aren't gods in the beginning and then spend the rest of the game treating them as such??? Make it make sense, Bioware.

trying to find frans / chans with masc frisk/chara (or with fem sans, raise up yuri lovers) is like trying to find gold in a pillow. i fear i was born to like yaoi and yuri only.. BUT, i still think those ships are very cute🥹

Fran Bow is a 4 dimensional game; probably even beyond that

Okay so I've had this thought in my head for quite a while and now it's not letting me fall asleep. You probably know that we are 3 dimensional beings and that the 4th dimension would be time. I came across some videos talking about that stuff and thought how cool it would be to write a story about beings that live with 4 dimensions on a daily basis.

EXCEPT IT'S BEEN DONE BEFORE, A WHOLE DECADE AGO.

Do you remember people from Ithersta? Do you remember how they talk?

Going back and forth in time is a casual thing for them! So does that make them 4 dimensional beings? And so, doesn't that make Fran one by technicality since she used the clock to go back and forth too?

I would say that it makes the game 4D if not for the fact that the game already has lore all about dimensions! Yes, I know they're called realities, but it's pretty similar. Let's say somebody gets to go back and forth the realities while being able to go back and forth in time. Wouldn't that make them a 5 dimensional being? Isn't that literally Fran? She was able to do both at one point or another. Anyway, there's a reason why she gets a cool tile and a pat on the head from Mabuka.

Thanks for reading through my rant, I'm not doing this again. Maybe.

I just watched the new Jim Henson documentary…

Overall it was very good, well paced, great visuals and editing. I learned a lot about Jim Henson and the company that I didn’t before and more behind the scenes that I hadn’t seen/heard which is always a treat!

I cried three times. 🫣👌 I had to fight the primal urge to pause the documentary and point out to my family where and what movie/show/episode every clip was from. This was my “did you know Viggo Mortensen actually broke his toe” scene.

I will say, I do think they very QUICKLY went over the disney merger and didn’t even mention the fallout with Disney after Jim’s death.

———————

The main problem I had was that SOME puppeteers got spot lights, interviews or arrows pointing out the individuals. And while I appreciate that these individuals got some recognition (which they 100% should), I think the documentary should have been consistent and do this with every new important/fundamental puppeteer to the film.

I alreay have!!! I was able to EASILY point out Karen Prell, Louise Gold, Richard Hunt, Jerry Nelson, Kevin Clash, Steve whitmire, etc. But an average viewer wouldn’t know who is who and what they contributed to the company!

I just think it’s intriguing who they chose to highlight and who they left out.

And I’ve noticed this happen in other muppet documentaries, like “Street Gang,” where they barely glossed over Richard Hunt and Jerry Nelson’s contributions to the show. (I’ve mentioned this problem here before. (Queer erasure during pride month? 🙄))

It would be such an easy problem to fix! Just a quick arrow to point out any new puppeteer or cast member to the Jim Henson Company. Maybe list their job/their characters so a main stream audience could identify them.

I can think of several founding members who are still alive today that were not interviewed. Maybe these people were asked to come in, IDK, but I would have loved to hear from more people you don’t hear from often.

I could definitely tell the documentary was really trying to avoid the “Steve Whitmire” sized elephant in the room, even though he was in SO MANY shots. I can guarantee that if he was still with the company he would have been featured heavily in the documentary.

One last thing…

They interviewed Michael Frith, where was my girl Kathryn Mullen?? (His wife.) She hasn’t done anything in over a decade, are you okay?? Blink if you need help. 👁️👄👁️😐😑😐😑

Someone once told me in the comments that they can’t draw because it always turns out like crap.

Boi, have you seen my blog??? Look how often my artstyle changes every couple months, sometimes it’s inconsistent but there is improvement. And again, it’s only a couple of months difference, so it’s often jarring for some if you know where you’re looking!

Not to mention of the unfinished doodles and sketches y’all don’t get to see posted publicly. It’s also sort of one of the reason why I don’t post often cuz I feel like my art isn’t good enough, other than being lazy or irl stuff

So if you think your drawings are like crap now when you only just started, OF COURSE it’s going to look like that, mate! You just started!

But if you think your drawings still look like crap after years of drawing, question yourself how much actual effort you put into that drawing:

Did you look at references? Either it posing or inspo?

Follow art tutorials! In today’s modern use of internet, you can find free art lessons online

Take the time to sit down and practice what you have learned? Even doodling and unfinished sketches help a lot if you’re short on time! I’m literally an example of this lol

I fear that this user will think that artists are gatekeepers and end up using AI, but seriously isn’t the case and it shouldn’t be.

And it has to be said, please don’t compare your art with others, we all started from somewhere. Don’t expect yourself to reach the same skill level as someone who has years of practice or had the resources to learn art early on.

Art, as everyone knows the quote by now, is subjective, but it only just comes down to how much you’re willing to practice on!

Sorry for the rant, was just reminded of the user’s comment when looking at my old doodles. So here is a little bonus if you stayed and read. If not, at least something worthwhile

This is detective Frisk and Lust Sans AU created by the user @feelisia 🐑 🩵

The Nanny

The relationship between Maxwell Sheffield and Fran Fine is so intricate and honestly a major mess.

This is not a deep analysis. I just think it's hilarious how Fran and Maxwell do this slow burn for over 4-5 seasons (they get together in season 5), but seemingly lose the passion. I understand why people think stretching out the will they wont they plot line is key-- as it's super easy to keep passion, but I don't think the passion left because Maxwell and Fran got together. I think it failed a bit because the writers didn't really care to continue to develop this relationship between the characters after they got together. I see this happen a lot in slow burn movies and tv shows. The characters and their relationship is not the problem. It's the writers giving up the chase because the characters are now together. Just like a real life marriage, WORK must be put in or the relationship will fail.

Writers give up, instead of focusing on creating a new and unique dynamic. Fran and Maxwell had such an interesting dynamic after the "I love you" fiasco. That need to rebuild trust could've been stretched and further developed when they got together, but that plotline got dropped (/resolved wayyy to quickly).

When they do get together, instead of looking into how to portray this new relationship dynamic-- the development, trust, and new routine-- it's almost as if Maxwell and Fran were instantly made for each other instead of focusing on Maxwell and Fran learning to properly love each other (because of course they were sexually attracted to each other). Maxwell calling Fran, darling all the time instead of still calling her Fran is honestly a disaster.

Fran and Max's relationship was really one of the best slow burns of the 90s. But the trash that was their official relationship was not because they got together, but rather that the writers stopped working on developing their relationship. But I don't even blame the writers, because it wouldn't be the first writers room to turn a good slow burn to a trash insta love plot (insta love itself is not trash, but in these cases THEY ARE).
