ArtFight attack on @lucabyte Ali just having their typical normal morning UwU

[lucabyte]

So does anybody else ever think about how Loop felt the need to demonstrate that the party's deaths wouldn't have any effect on the loops. I know I do but that's besides the point. Anyway I don't think Loop actually needs to bathe, they just like to feel included.

Man, does anyone remember those old Penne of Peril games from the 90s/00s? I never played that many but man I always thought the villain Bairaz was really cool.

44 for the jukebox :-D

#44 was Look Who's Inside Again by Bo Burnham!!

This specific piece took some pretty strong inspo from the following pieces by Lucabyte and Eggoatt please give those a like and a reblog!

for fun theres a speedpaint below the cut!

[sketchystars]

woohoo take some mostly siffrin doodles (drawings? sketches? idk) i did over the week

full page and yapping below cut!!

now: me yapping about some of the drawings

the lyrics next to the drawing with saapfrin are from "Ballerina" by Daisy the Great, it's a rlly cool song u should listen to it:33

the one with mdp was inspired by that one comic by @/lucabyte where siffrin just casually hallucinates mdp post canon. i love that comic(and all of their comics tbh!!) i shall reblog it in due time

the one with mira and sif holding plants was because i think they should get into gardening post canon. because uh. something something things change even if you don't see it, and it could serve as a reminder that time is moving forward

It's so hard to find examples of quadrant type relationships in media, mostly because the framework that they're described under is so alien, and the environment that even brings about those types of bonds in general is so extreme, that typical people don't tend to even develop those types of feelings in the first place.

For example, the kill or be killed mentality of Alternia is what brings about the need to Pacify in the first place, and combining that distrust and competition of the planet with the necessity of the drone visits is what makes kismesissitude more common than it would otherwise be, imo. The structures of Pity and Hate (not the same as how we use the word here) as foundations of romance are just so different that it makes sense that it's difficult to find examples. When people talk about the quadrant framework as applied to our world or media, they tend to water it down or twist it in a way that makes it more digestible to whatever cultural norms they hold. (Normal dating, bestest best friends who kiss/qpr, rivals to lovers, That Fourth One)

Which is what makes it even more fascinating to me that when the perfect example of Pity and Hate and Pacification driving an intimate relationship stared me right in the eyes in my analyses, when I was writing them down with my own hands, I completely missed it until I saw @lucabyte 's posts about it, but it's so clear. There is so much intensity in Loop's feelings towards Siffrin, their searing resentment and hatred and pity and protectiveness and jealousy and fondness and revulsion and desire, and all are true at once and all are genuine. Siffrin's pity for Loop is equally as intense, once they Know the truth, and his desire to Make It Up To Them in whatever way that he can is so strong that even if Loop wins their fight, and is strangling them, they never once try to hurt Loop back, only tries to free themselves, and even after that, they still gently cup whatever modicum of face that Loop has in their hands and gives them nothing but gentle reassurance and praise and gratitude and compassion and care. Still wants them to stay. The whole Act 6 fight is an act of Pacification by Siffrin to Loop.

Some thoughts on Hussie's writing ethos, Homestuck's dream bubbles, and fictivity I had with @lucabyte.

On the Hunt

(Christmas 2024 - For @lucabyte)

[eldragon-x-moved]

The biggest downside to having finished a 16 loops playthrough of ISAT is that I don't know how I would play the game again in a different but similarly comfortably torturous way. I'm like thinking about that one lucabyte comic where Loop talks about hating how much the House started feeling like a home to them because they've spent so much time in there and that's basically how I feel. Like in what other ways can I put myself through the House over and over again.

... sorry for the tags LMAO

[nerdpiggy]

actually LRB yeah i think a lot about that. and im reposting @lucabyte 's tags here

[ID: tags that read "re-reblogging this to talk to prev abt the tags / anyway @ prev reminds me a lot of a thing my anim tutors said #that filmmakers film at 1 second per second / and animators work at several hours per second / and i think a lot about how thats true for any sequential medium like music or video editing or books or comics / how you read/watch/listen at one second per second / but the act of creation is minutes or hours per second" /End ID]

like idk i understand why people might get disheartened by that but i personally think its amazing that people put so much time into their art. I never stop thinking about how I wrote 14 minutes of music in 15 weeks for my EP and I worked on that shit nonstop like constantly. recently I spent like 8 hours laboring over a minute and a half-long demo. I have spent 45min creating one sound effect that's one second long. over and over

and like that amount of time and dedication is put into EVERYTHING. writing. visual art. editing. fiber arts. musical performances. movies. graphic design. video games (x1000). cooking & baking. sound design. each piece of art is a pocket of time and i think that's really cool and also makes my head spin
