#moment: Step 5

[r3dcam3llias]

Hiya!! I focused on parent designs this weekend, so we'll be showcasing Pam, Lani, and Cliff's Step 5 Designs :) (never fear, Kyra will make an appearance soon) (Only one design for each so far, although I will need to make some winter clothes for them.)

Bonus: We have one more parent going to be newly added to this list, our very own Cove Holden 🥹 (2 different initial designs, a full PPE version and normal clothes, with a little one in a hospital blanket.)

I struggled so hard to remake ALL of Cove's step 4 clothes in order to get this completely new pose to work, but it was well worth it... BECAUSE LET ME JUST SAY... oh I am ill… I did not know Cove holding a baby could make me feel this way. It’s spectacular, gimme 18 of em' right now 😭

Day 11: Frozen in Time

The differences in the battle portraits between acts are so good. Like, Act 2's portrait is shocked, but later portraits aren't. He's repeated this performance so many times, that they see the misstep and accept it. Who cares? Win or lose, he'll just loop again.

I have a headcanon that this is exactly how Ren acts/sounds when he's drunk... Just kinda chill and sleepy, docile almost, mumble-singing random bits of songs that would come to his head or someone would sing near him, chuckling at random things, losing his train of thought randomly, attempting (and failing) to joke, being very affectionate in a genuine way... Very plesant and non-problematic to be around, all things considered. Once again, a complete 180 from his metaverse self.

And, of course, he WOULD also say "I love you so much Goro, you know that, right? T's true. T's true.

People can unquestionably be deeply weird about food (see: recipe bloggers who are more about conspicuous consumption than actually good recipes; people who leave comments on recipe blogs about how fruit or god forbid carrots are unhealthy because - checks notes - they contain too much sugar; tr*dwives trying to politicize photos of bread; Silicon Valley guys selling fad diets). I find this as annoying as anyone (v possibly I find it more annoying, as a person who likes to cook!). However I also find it annoying when people act as if the act of cooking elaborate (or even not-so-elaborate) meals is in and of itself something weird and snobbish. Cooking is like the single most accessible hobby bro. The end product is food and you kinda need that to live, and also it’s often cheaper to make things yourself assuming you can afford the time cost. “God save us from people who make pasta sauce from scratch, why would anyone do this” well you see, sometimes people have hobbies. Sometimes people enjoy the process of creation as much as the thing itself, even. Sue me for finding joy in the stuff I’m compelled to put in my face to stay alive I guess

I've been working on Step 5 designs and while most of them aren't anywhere near finished yet, I had to show off one I'm particularly proud of 🥹 Terry and Miranda were always some of my favorite characters and I really wanted to do Terry specifically some justice. I knew out of all the side characters I designed for Step 5, his would probably take the most time, so I started on it first, making 2 outfits so far as well: ( a summer outfit and a beach outfit!)

Additionally, here's some of his expressions:

Side by side comparison, step 4 vs step 5:

Anyway, any thoughts, concerns, or comments are gladly appreciated!! 💖

Bruh, I am prolly slow on the uptake, but I'm realizing that, considering their magic is heavily influenced by imagination, it's no WONDER Kalim's magic, especially his defensive magic, is so weak.

Because he's always had everything handed to him or done for him by others, especially Jamil, of course his imagination would never compare. Bc he's never HAD to long for anything, never had to think of anything for himself besides what he was told/given, outside certain circumstances!

Is it a wonder he was able to manifest his magic at an age when Jamil was attending another school away from him? When Kalim himself WANTED to and tried so HARD at something, likely for the first time in his life, to manifest his magic to be JUST LIKE Jamil?

Tbh, the best thing that ever happened to Kalim was not really Jamil. Bc incidentally, the way they were raised, it only served to limit Kalim both in life experiences and magic, having Jamil do everything for Kalim. He never needed to work on honing his magic when Jamil could take care of potions, when Jamil could defend him and take the brunt of the grunt work.

Thus, the best possible thing to have happened to Kalim really having to make his own friends outside of him at Night Raven. Like when he used Oasis Maker to entertain Crowley with excellent control and skill ( likely something he learned to do for shows with the Pop Music Club, I bet! ). Or how when he had to make a party without Jamil's help, Ruggie let him learn how to cook with only using magic and the food STILL turned out to be a hit despite it being Kalim's first shot at it! Or how he was able to surprise Jamil by making the river to bring Octavinelle, himself and Yuu'n Grim back to Scarabia after the boy'd dismissed his Signature Spell as useless.

So much of anxiety is living in both the past and future and not being present so, I’m trying to make a conscious effort to stay in the present from now on because I literally don’t actually exist anywhere else. so whats that matter - we just have right now. Constant worrying doesn’t actually alter anything. If bad, shitty stressful things are going to happen they will, there’s no control in that. Just have to live. Just have to continue, adapt and do the best you can in the moment you’re actually fucking in and keep going. Gotta go through bad stuff to get to the cool shit. There’s always good stuff coming. Either way you gotta just keep going.

so presently I’m standing in my kitchen and it’s crazy foggy outside. I have the worlds most precious cat at my feet and i’m eating warmed homemade coffee cake.

Literally the first post I see when I hop on is saying one of my jobs is a total scam and that people who do it are hurting the industry what the hell 🙃

Smokin a cigarette and walkin around soggy ohio grass and talkin to myself like a madman and processing how utterly pathetic my life has become really is such an experience i wish i could do it forever
