#so that's why there's also version without their accessories

[raven-at-the-writing-desk]

Personally like Leona's sleepwear too 👍

The only thing I think could be improved is that I would have liked some kind of pattern on the shirt just so it doesn't look as blank, especially compared to the pants, I've already seen one very nice edit of that

Also I kind of hope his pants are like knee length or calf length though that probably won't happen, honestly that's not gonna ruin anything for me, full length is pretty nice too

[ Referencing this post! ]

You get me 🤝

I actually like his plain ass shirt 😂 It reminds me of the expensive ass black shirts Steve Jobs wears… Deceptively plain but will cost you an arm and a leg. The simpleness of the shirt lets us focus on his face and doesn’t compete with the complex pattern on the pants too 👍 If a design were to be included on the shirt, I’d want it to be small and lowkey, like maybe a lion on one breast or a strip of pattern running along the hem like this.

It’s possible that Leona’s pajama pants don’t entirely cover his legs, yes! Maybe they’ll just be calf or knee-length. I wouldn’t mind it if it was full-length pants though, the savanna can actually be quite cool at night.

I really don’t need a ton of skin showing to be happy. Little bits are fine!! It’s the appeal of the tease of skin, not flaunting it all at once 👌

I saw this edit earlier, which I think is a great interpretation of Leona’s pajamas without going overboard with with the bare skin fanservice; the boob window is a little deeper and the waistband of the pants was lowered to show a tiny bit more skin. It’s my favorite one I’ve seen so far.

There’s also this edit, but it shows a fair bit more skin and uh… the “V” area. This one has the shirt off but isn’t the complete picture, nor is it fully rendered. This version and this version, however, have the shirt off but fully rendered. Aaand then there’s also this one which shows a LOT of skin; he’s topless and the flesh veers into the “V” area. This one is topless and involves a… um, trail of hair somewhere…

YOU WanT HIM TO PROGveE THAT RiCh PeipKLE HAVE NO tASTE... Understandable

The Outdoor Wear outfit is one that Ruggie purchased and threw together for him, so I'm not sure if we can entirely blame Leona for that fashion trainwreck. And personally, I really like Leona's stupid shoes in his Clubwear card! I always saw the pattern as like... a sandstorm of gold flecks and (his) claws tearing through it.

Leona actually does seem to have fashion sense, as he has shown that he knows what is aesthetically pleasing and what isn't; he even states that he doesn't care about price, so long as something "looks good" on him. It's just that he dislikes items that are too hard to put on or weigh him down, like the various accessories in his Fairy Gala Couture look. He knows when something doesn't vibe with his own style (again, like the Fairy Gala Couture look).

I think the complex pattern on his pajama pants were supposed to be the gaudy part of it? But they didn't overdo it, which I appreciate. The muted, earthy colors are so nice on the eyes. I don’t think I can handle bright or neon colors again 💦

It would have been nice to see Leona in a fancy sleeping robe… Let him be a little diva I understand why they didn’t go that direction though, it would probably be too bulky for him.

I want to work more on this before I'm gone pet-sitting but I don't know how much more I'll accomplish today so.,.,. I will just share this neow...

[jyunhology]

what’s yours is mine, what’s mine is yours ˖.𖥔 ݁ ˖ smg (f)

summary: mingi worries about whether you’ll still be his without the extravagance of being an idol. you don’t hesitate to show it.

a/n: based off a dream i had with mingi <3 also i dont think mingi has explicitly said why he like rings - im sure he just likes it as an accessory. dont read too much into this, it’s just a hc! also i realise i talk quite a lot about chrome hearts in this and rightfully so i shouldve made this about woo but... the mingi worms took over TT

word count: 2.1k

It wasn’t any secret that Mingi loved his jewellery. On top of necklaces and chain bracelets, he always kept his rings close to his heart.

They don’t just contribute to his explosive, alluring stage persona, but also grounds himself to the performance, to the photoshoot, to whatever schedule he was fulfilling.

The way the rings enclose around his fingers are there to remind him that the hands — which have carried himself in B-boying classes, or have manoeuvred over the control panel for his FIX OFF projects — are the very hands that have clinched this dream, this opportunity to share his music and dance with the world.

But ever since he’s met you, the weight of the rings feels odd to him, regret filling his bones when he thinks back to the first time you held hands three weeks in. It was a messy encounter along a hiking trail — you had forgotten to bring a jacket, he had forgotten the warm soup he so meticulously cooked — overlooking the city of Seoul.

You were giddy with feelings, too afraid of shattering the moment with a trivial complaint about his chunky jewellery digging into your skin.

And back at the dorm that night, Mingi feels a rush of elation bubbling up from beneath him after experiencing your warmth: the kind that makes you grin wide. But when photos from Dispatch show the indents of the Chrome Hearts motif and a gemstone embedded in your skin, is when the guilt seeps in.

The next few dates are scarce, but spent with empty fingers. Though, when he’s not twining his hands with yours, he’s fidgeting with his own; sweaty, nervous, jittery.

What if you didn’t like the off-stage, softer Mingi? What if you only preferred his tough-guy presence? What if you only liked the embellishments that made up who he was on stage? You had been a fan before getting together with him.

He spends the next few weeks like this — in a dilemma, anxious for whether you’d like him for him. Until your Instagram story repost has his heart sinking to his feet; it could’ve been the long day of rehearsing and performing, or it could’ve been Mingi’s silent unease that made him do a double take on the pictures. 

He could’ve sworn those were your hands; the same hands that his fingers go over like constellations and the hands he melts under like chocolate; his saving grace during horror movies (not that you were any better, hiding in his chest) and bad days at the dance studio.

But they could also be someone else’s: adorned with rings that boasted more slender, prettier versions of Chrome Hearts motifs with a cool set of nails that he feels a tug at his chest.

What difference would it make if he had all the shiniest rings in the world, but couldn’t be accepted? It was a stupid thing to feel insecure over, he knows, but he can’t fight the nagging feeling inside of him.

So when you’re meeting up with Mingi at his dorm later that night, you’re wondering why he’s so quiet while he receives you in the doorway, with San and Seonghwa shooting you wary glances, eyes narrowed as they watch you scurry behind your boyfriend to his room.

It’s not until halfway through a movie that you can’t stomach any more animosity lingering in the atmosphere, pausing the video on the laptop to face Mingi. And for someone who’s a proud T (even if MBTI tests aren’t inherently accurate), you’ve never seen him so flustered before.

“What’s going on, Mingi?” You frown, placing the laptop far from the both of you before settling in between his legs. A bold move for a new, blooming relationship like yours but gods, you’d do anything to keep someone as bright, as heavenly as Song Mingi close to your body and closer to your heart.

Gone is the energetic rapper on stage; instead, you’re faced with the quietude of your lover, eyes shifting and hands fiddling at whether to tell you about his worries.

“Whatever it is, you know we can handle it together, right?” Without looking, your hands reach out for his. It’s like your body knows — the natural lean into him when he starts speaking, a gentle smile ghosting on your lips. The heat crawling up your neck both in shyness and amusement when he makes a cheesy joke, unfiltered laughter falling from you.

With your tender voice in his head, Mingi hardens his resolve in telling you what’s on his mind, but he feels your fingers play with his rings, seemingly feeling around with hesitation.

“Why’re you wearing your rings right now, Min?” Min, he likes the new nickname, but soon calms his heart from any other distractions.

He takes over your embrace, letting his hands wrap around yours as he brings them to his mouth. A kiss, light like a whisper makes your breath hitch. So enamoured with you, that he doesn’t see your painted fingers.

“Your… story, that’s you?” His voice is soft, spoken like he’ll break the tension. Your head tilts to one side. “Insta story.”

“Oh—” You squeal, excited that he’s finally said something about your appointment today. “Yes, look!”

Your wiggling fingers are what makes Mingi pull away from the back of your hands, spread out across his larger palms as he observes the little charms, the unique textures and most importantly, his rap signature, Fix On, mirroring the design he had for the MAMA awards.

And here he was, assuming things about you like you hadn’t given him a burned CD of his favourite songs after the first month. Like you didn’t stay up after a night shift crafting a handmade paper gift for your second monthsary. You are as, if not more, infatuated with Mingi as he is with you, and he never wants to doubt you ever again.

“Oh, baby, what’s wrong?” It isn’t until you’re saying that that Mingi realises the furrow in his eyebrows and the blurriness of his vision. All it takes is one tear drop to fall from his eyes before you’re pulling him into your arms, letting him soak your shirt with his tears and apologies.

“I’m sorry— I—I thought,” Mingi regains his breath after a short time, leaning into the support your hands created. “Nevermind, it’s lame.”

“Hey no, anything that makes you cry isn’t lame. C’mon, what is it?”

“You’re gonna laugh.” He sniffles with a pout.

You lean in for a peck, something that relaxes his shoulders and eases his heart. “I won’t, Mingi.”

He admires your determined expression, not knowing you were shitting bricks as you thought back — was the CD corrupted? Did you accidentally use your sketches of Mingi when making the gift and he’s weirded out? The last thing you wanted was to upset him.

“I thought… I assumed it was someone else in your story. That— that you were going out with someone else who wore cool rings like me.” You nod along, wondering where he’s going with this when you feel the coldness of the metal on his fingers.

Something clicks in you; it’s out of place, it’s something that doesn’t exactly belong in a room that’s meant to shield you from everything.

“That if I laid myself bare to you — without the heavy chains around my neck, or the revealing clothes, or the sensual way I act on stage — you wouldn’t like it.”

You open your mouth to say something but he continues, “I’ve seen what some of the fans say, project an image onto me, that sometimes they’re surprised I can cook, or that I can have in-depth conversations about things I’m passionate about. Or that I can get together with someone… and like them enough to stick with them.”

It isn’t a stretch with what Mingi’s saying. You have seen your fair share of fans who take it too far sometimes in TikTok comments and on Twitter, that you can’t help but feel guilty for not doing more.

You stay silent, not because you don’t have anything to say, but because you think your words would come out as shallow, as mere band-aids to a harsh wound.

So you wordlessly remove the rings from his fingers, slide them off one by one to place them on the bedside table.

There’s one left that lingers, a ring on his fourth finger that no doubt doesn’t fit your smaller ones, but you put it on either way. It’s a bit of a funny sight, the ring swaying with each move of your hands, but your sentiment is there.

It’s something that looks out of place, but it’s not heavy like Mingi’s rings had been on him before. Now they hold a promise, an oath —

“I know I can’t experience even a fraction of what you feel, but I’ll carry that weight with you, okay? What’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is yours.” The chill of the rings no longer burns his fingers, and so it doesn’t make him shiver when you plant your hands on his cheeks.

“And I’ll die trying to tell you I love not just the Mingi on stage, but also the Mingi who forgot the soup at Naksan and the Mingi here in this room right now.”

There’s a bout of silence. Mingi gasps.

“Hold on... you just said love—” Your eyes widen and your cheeks burn hot. You’re not sure how to respond.

“Fuck, did I?” You mutter to yourself, suddenly self conscious as you look off to the side, but Mingi is beaming, mouth stretched to a pretty, gummy grin. And he can’t help but tackle you into a hug, making you yelp out in surprise at the sudden weight on you.

It’s today that you learn that Mingi’s love is silent. His love is burying kisses deep in your neck until he’s sure it’ll materialise as moles in your next life. His love is the unconscious adjustment of his big ring on you, pressing down with pure force until it closes around your fourth finger more snugly.

On another day down the months, Mingi’s love is the modest rejection of your own Chrome Hearts ring, a cheap dupe you got at a flea market that you thought was a steal.

He’s pushing your hand away gently. “It’s okay, baby. I know how much you like this ring. You basically wear it everywhere.”

You playfully glare at him and elbow him lightly. “Take it, Mingi. I want you to have it.”

“Why?”

“Well, just ‘cause! Can’t I give my boyfriend a little something?” 

He giggles like a schoolgirl — enough to make the members in the seats in front to look at each other with puzzled expressions — but your loving touch grounds him.

He doesn’t think about the discomfort of sitting at the back of the six-seater car, nor the fact that your ring struggles to go past his second joint (“That’s called the proximal interphalangeal, by the way.” He nudges back with a google search pulled up).

Thighs touch, exchanging the kind of heat that sears your skin and warms your heart. Your arm loops around his, playing aimlessly with your well-used ring on him.

And Mingi’s heart-wrenching love turns into devotion sooner or later. A soft kiss to your hair in the car, a simultaneous promise to use rings only on one hand on dates, and a proud wiggle on his finger on a live when Dispatch catches pictures of a rusted ring years later.

“Well, ATINYs, it’s because it’s a gift from someone. A someone who once said ‘what’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is yours’, and a someone who gave me her favourite ring even though she uses it everywhere.”

The comments went rapidly just as Mingi shows a sliver of you resting on the studio couch after a night shift, eyes softening at your image reflected on the phone.

“But you know, between you and me, ATINY,” Mingi leans in with a smile, whispering, “if she somehow grows out of using rings, I’ll still try my best to get one on her fourth finger.”

You smile, half asleep.

“And maybe it’ll be a Chrome Hearts ring, too.”

A giggle escapes. Mingi yells in surprise. His cheeks turn pink. The last thing the fans see is a hand covering the camera, rust staining the silver of your replica and looks a little worse for wear.

But it doesn’t matter, not when he knows you love every aspect of him. Not when Mingi now knows that you ground him in performances, in photoshoots, in schedules.

And his fingers, his heart feels a little lighter, trusting you’re right there to remove it all just as he would for you. All but one — a promise to make you his forever.

by. janus, from me to you ♡ / slightly off-topic but i had a bit of trouble writing this but im kinda happy with how it turned out. the fact that while resting in between writing, i would come across exact comments about how they didnt know mingi could cook etc.. so im going to change that bit by bit!

summary: your husband opens your marriage, while his best friend Harry is determined to steal you

masterlist || part 3:

Harry’s POV

Lobby - 1:30 PM

The air in the marble-floored lobby shifts the moment I step out of the elevator. I see Tom instantly, standing near the glass entrance like he owns the place. Shirt slightly wrinkled, jaw tense, ego bruised.

“If you don’t plan to attend any board meetings, just sell your stocks.” Tom’s head snaps immediately at the sound of my voice—that cocky grin. He still thinks nothing has changed and we’re on the same terms, but there’s something desperate behind that smirk. Perhaps he realized the mistake he made? Or was the night with that girl not so pleasant after all?

I walk toward him calmly. Controlled. Dangerous.

“Harry,” he smiles. “Didn’t expect to see you coming down.”

“I don’t mind being a good boyfriend and taking Y/N’s trash out.” I watch his smile falter. He didn’t expect that. Didn’t expect someone to steal you. Didn’t expect that someone to be his best friend. Didn’t expect that I’d talk down to him. But things will be different from now on. From now on, I won’t let anyone hurt you, Y/N.

He adjusts his cufflink — a nervous tic. “Where is she?”

“Upstairs. Where she belongs. In a real office. Getting real respect.”

“Don’t act like this is some fairytale. She’s my wife.”

I step closer to him. “She was your wife. And you treated her like an accessory you could upgrade when the next version dropped.”

Tom scoffs, jaw tightening. “You think you’re better for her?”

“I know I am. And deep down, so do you. That’s why you’re here, not for her. For your pride.”

Tom’s eyes narrow as I lower my voice, just enough so no one else hears. “She gave you every ounce of grace she had. She defended you. Built your company back up with her bare hands while you were too drunk to string a deal together. And you repaid her by humiliating her in front of our entire network.”

He opens his mouth, but I quickly cut him off. I won’t tolerate his bullshit any longer. “She’s not a possession, Tom. She’s not your PR boost. She’s not a pretty toy on your arm, so you can appear like a proper family man at events. And if you ever refer to her like that again, I swear to God, I’ll bury your name so deep in legal fire you’ll need a shovel and ten lawyers just to breathe.”

“She won’t leave me for you.” His voice falters. Does he even believe this himself?

I scoff softly. “She already did. You just weren’t there to notice.”

That hits him. He sways slightly, like I just took the ground out from under his shoes.

I straighten my jacket, calm and collected. “Now, if you’re here to make a scene, I suggest you save yourself the embarrassment. This building has more cameras than investors, and I don’t need another scandal with your name on it.”

I glance at the receptionist. “Ella, please escort Mr. Harrington out. He no longer has access to this building. And please make sure he doesn’t bother Mrs. Harrington anymore.”

Tom takes a breath, but I can see the fury in his eyes. He wants to explode, but he knows he can’t. He needs to preserve what little dignity he has left. He just lost the one thing that belonged to him that I didn’t have, and I know he won’t give up without a fight—but I also know that I won’t either. And when he comes, I’ll be ready.

As security gently approaches him, I turn back toward the elevator. I pause for one last word without even turning to look at him. “Oh — and Tom? Next time you open a marriage, make sure the better man isn’t waiting just around the corner.”

Elevator doors close. I’m smiling now — not because I humiliated him.

But because I finally defended you.

And you’re upstairs, waiting.

My Office - 8:30 PM

“What is it, Bunny?” I ask softly as your head lands on my shoulder, your eyebrows furrowed, nose scrunched.

“All smells the same now.” You push away sample bottles of our new perfume line.

I chuckle softly, closing my laptop and wrapping my arm around your shoulder, pulling you closer. “What are you saying? That we need to have a very nourishing dinner and go to mine? I think I agree with you.”

“You think I’m just tired?” You sink deeper into my chest, cheek pressed just below my collarbone.

“I think you’re brilliant. And exhausted. And probably running on one latte and half an omelet.” I pause. “And I think… you’ve been holding it together for too long.”

There’s a beat of silence. The kind where everything unsaid lingers in the room, thick and alive.

You lift your head just enough to look at me. Your eyes are tired but soft, searching. “Do you really mean it?”

My eyes meet your gaze. “Every word. I meant it yesterday. I meant it in the lobby. I meant it when I told Tom you deserve more than being treated like a liability in a dress.” I take your hand, threading my fingers through yours. “I’m not here to borrow you from a broken marriage, Y/N. I’m here to build something better. And not just for you. For both of us.”

You stare at me, and I can see your guard start to tremble. “I’m scared.”

“Good. That means it matters.”

You swallow hard, and I raise your hand to my lips, kissing your knuckles. “Come home with me tonight. No pressure. No expectations. Just… rest. A bed that’s yours. A room where you’re safe. We’ll cook something together. Or order everything on the menu. I’ll run you a bath. You can wear that huge hoodie I know you keep stealing from my wardrobe.”

“Okay.” Your voice is barely above a whisper.

“Okay?”

You nod. And for a moment, you smile — truly smile. The first one I’ve seen all day.

I rise from my chair, still holding your hand, and gently tug you up with me. I wrap your coat over your shoulders, grabbing my keys and your bag.

“Let’s go. Tomorrow, we’ll work on a scent that smells like you: confidence and cinnamon and a little danger.” I smile, grabbing your hand softly in mine and leading you out of my office.

You laugh. “Danger?”

“You just ruined your husband’s life and walked away in heels. That’s lethal.” I lead you inside the elevator and your cheek presses on my chest again.

“Do they really all smell different?” You look up at me.

I chuckle. “They do, baby. One of the smells was floral, another one was woody, the third one was citrus.” I gently stroke your cheek. “Don’t overthink it, love. You’re just tired.”

You take a theatrical, dramatic gasp, putting one hand on your chest. “What if I lost my ability to smell?”

Which makes me let out an amused laugh. I missed this silly side of you, just how you were when we first met. Lately, it felt like you lost it, and God, it felt so nice to see it again.

“Then, I guess I will have to smell everything for you.” I kiss the top of your head, wrapping my arm around you as we walk out of the office building.

My House - 9:12 PM

The door clicks shut behind us, locking out the world and everything it tried to take from you. From us. You toe off your heels by the entryway, hang your coat, and I set your bag down gently by the console table, watching the way your body already begins to relax just from being here. Away from the noise. Away from him.

“I forgot how quiet it is here,” you whisper, stepping further inside. The lights are low, warm. The skyline glows through the floor-to-ceiling windows like the city knows it should dim itself for you tonight.

I slip off my blazer and roll my sleeves up as I walk into the kitchen, glancing at you over my shoulder. “I can make you pasta. Or do you want something you don’t have to chew?”

You giggle lightly, rubbing your temples. “I want something Asian.”

“Sushi it is then.” I smile, grabbing my phone and opening the delivery app, scrolling to my favorite sushi restaurant.

You nod, dragging your fingers through your hair as you perch on one of the stools by the kitchen island. “You know, I was always jealous of your garden.”

I chuckle. “And I always thought you would look majestic in it.” You don’t answer, just nod and keep gazing at my garden through the windows.

“I meant what I said back there, in the elevator, you know,” I say, putting my phone on the counter as I place the order. “I’m not going to let him near you again.”

You’re quiet for a moment.

“I know,” you finally say. “That’s the thing. I know.”

I glance at you, sitting there still slightly dazed, still beautiful. You’ve never looked more human.

“Harry?” Your voice is soft, unsure.

I step toward you. “What is it, Bunny?”

You reach out for me like it’s instinct. Like it’s the only thing that makes sense anymore. I move into your space without hesitation, placing my hands on either side of your waist, thumb brushing just above the edge of your blouse.

“I don’t know what I’m doing,” you whisper, looking up at me with something between grief and relief. “I just know I don’t want to go back. Not to him. Not to who I was when I was with him.”

I press my forehead to yours. “Good. Because she’s gone. And the woman standing in front of me right now? She’s worth more than he ever had the capacity to recognize.”

Your lips part, but you don’t speak. You just look at me — the way someone looks when they realize they’re home. Not in a place. In a person.

“I’m sorry I didn’t say something sooner,” I whisper. “I should’ve said something years ago.”

You shake your head. “No. I wasn’t ready to hear it.”

We stay there, quietly breathing in sync. I don’t let go of you, not even when the notification on the delivery app pops. You don’t pull away, even when your phone buzzes on the counter.

I slide it toward you without looking. “Do you want to answer it?”

You glance at the screen. “It’s him.”

I nod once. “Do you want me to answer it?”

You smile — slow, tired, real. “No. I don’t want him in here. Not tonight.”

I take your hand again, bring it to my lips. “Come. We’ll eat. Then bath. Then bed. And tomorrow we design the scent—something uniquely you. Bold. Addictive. Impossible to forget.”

[heck-theo]

Okokokokok- ignore how rough and messy some of these redraws/sketches are - but it's apparently also dinosaur month?? (WHY did no one ever tell me it's Jurassic June? I love dinosaurs) And like. What if Rise but dinosaurs?!

I don't often post such loose sketches but I wanted to show these off cause I really like some of this.

Design choices and dino species + the reasons I picked them bellow (looking for potential Donnie dino suggestions):

Clothes: Without the shell they really need clothes. They'd all have pretty much the same pants to keep some unity, except maybe Mikey (I decided they should all have the same pants after I finished the Mikey sketches, not sure if I'll keep the shorts or change to pants). Accessories are a mix of pre and post finale.

Raph - I think would keep it simple and practical but would also wear nice jackets and stuff when in casual situations. I need to work on giving him an alternative outfit and tweak his accessories a bit.

Donnie - An oversized pull-over hoodie cause we already know he loves that shit. We see him wearing it all the time. Easy enough. He wears a comfortable singlet underneath so the straps of his battle sail don't rub. Nice soft fabric, tight fit so it doesn't move around, tucks it into his pants, etc. When he wears the battle sail he won't overheat so he can wear hoodies basically all year round.

Leo - He's in one of those shirts with obnoxiously large arm holes and make it cropped cause 1. I think he would 2. I want it to be different from Raph and Donnie's singlets. He usually wears the shoulder strap off his shoulder but pulls it up when he needs to. He has some of the black bandages over his mid drift atm but I might just make his pants super high waisted in the final version. He'd probably wear a bomber jacket (also cropped?) over the top for cool weather, but doesn't like to hide his feathers.

Mikey - I think he'd mostly wear hand me downs when he's younger. He definitely goes through a stage of rebelling and wanting to pick his own and would find a middle ground of appreciating sharing some of his brother's clothes and modifying them, as long as he has the choice of his own available. Not sure if that would be before or after this design. At the moment he's got Raph's old shorts (from a loooong time ago), Leo's old shirt, and Donnie's old zip up hoodie. He does have his own accessories though, including pins instead of stickers.

Dinosaurs: I kept them all as non-avian dinosaurs, AKA not including animals that are colloquially considered dinos but aren't (like pterosaurs). I wanted to keep an even split of herbivore vs carnivore just so one wasn't the odd one out. I wanted to keep most of their body structure, colours and distinguishing features the same as canon. Obviously I added tails cause, yeah, of course haha. I did want them to be recognisable as different species of dino using distinct characteristics that their species is known for. I did ignore a lot of differences though, like size and bipedal vs quadruped (although the quadrupeds might be more likely to go to all fours, especially when fighting or afraid). Leo and Donnie are carnivores so have sharper teeth and claws.

Raph - Some kind of Ceratopsian (likely Triceratops or something very similar) and he was the first idea I had for this and I'm really happy with it. I think it just suits him. Trike Raph just came to me in an unprecedented moment of genius. His spikey frill replicates his spikey shell. His sturdiness, protectiveness and willingness to kick ass when needed, all scream trike to me.

Donnie - Spinosaurus but looking for other species recommendations. More details below: So I wanted to figure out a way for him to have tech with a similar function to his battle shell (in the sense that it's something that helped him in day to day life) and so I went with spino cause one possible theory about a function of spinosaurus' sail is temperature regulation. So his battle sail has heating/cooling systems as well as other tech. A spino's sail was probably not fragile but the battle sail would also help protect it from being targeted during fights or crushed during extreme impacts. It was also thought to be used for display, and what's more of a display than a battle sail? The only problem I have with this is that it's lacking part of what makes Donnie's battle shell so great, which is that it is essentially a prosthetic. Not quite the same as how prosthetics are used in people of course, just in the sense that it is replicating the functionality of a body part that he doesn't have (I can't think of a better word). Well he does have a shell but it doesn't function in the same way that his brothers shells do, which leaves him with less defense than they have, hence a big reason for the battle shell (I hope I explained this well, it was hard to try and word properly). I can't think of a good way to do this with dinos. I was thinking of a carno or something with tiny arms, then Donnie could have tech enhanced arms but I'm pretty much ignoring body structure in the others so it would be weird to have just Donnie be affected by a difference in limb structure/functionality. I was thinking prosthetic tail but every non avian dinosaur had a pretty substantial tail. Except therizinosaurus but even they hade pretty obvious tails. I'm open to suggestions for this one if anyone has ideas. It does have to be an extinct non-avian dinosaur (anything not in Avialae), preferably carnivore but if someone suggests a really good herbivore or omnivore then I can try and swap Mikey for a carnivore. I want there to be an even split. I also wanted to give him something different on his face, like his brothers, and that could only be a little spino crest and it crowds the top of his head but I can't put it anywhere else...

Leo - A type of Dromaeosaur. I was tossing up between this and a dilophosaur where his red stripes were part of the dilo's crest, cause I wasn't sure about giving him feathers. But dilo Leo was so plain compared to the rest and the crests were hard to get looking right so I went back to raptor Leo. I can definitely imagine him literally and metaphorically preening his feathers too. You can't really see it but he does also have that big raptor claw. Raptors were smart, tactical and worked in packs so I think that suits him. I wasn't specifically referencing how some artists draw Leo's stripes coming off his face (I was just trying to replicate his stripes somehow, even though it doesn't make a huge amount of sense) but I realised afterwards that it kinda looks like that and might have been subconsciously inspired by it.

Mikey - Is an Ankylosaur. I'm pretty happy with the species but I need to work out the design of his armour plating so that it looks interesting, cool and protective but isn't too chunky, too pointy or super lumpy looking. I went with an anky cause Mikey is often hiding in his shell and he can't do the same here but he could curl up in a defensive ball. Plus I could imagine him using his tail club in his razzmatazz fighting style. A little like his kusari-fundo or nunchacku/nunchucks (not sure on proper wording).

Chiefs vs Bills | Kansas City, MO | January 26, 2025

Louis Vuitton 'Monogram Jacquard Knit Jacket' - $5,000.00 Louis Vuitton 'LV Spark Beanie' - $550.00 Steven Battelle 'Ancient Coin Necklace' - price varies Louis Vuitton 'Trunk Chain Wallet' - $2,850.00 Louis Vuitton 'Le Damier de Louis Vuitton Small Ring' - $3,950.00 Louis Vuitton 'Le Damier de Louis Vuitton Medium Bracelet' - $18,500.00 Cartier 'Panthère de Cartier Medium Watch Diamond' - $32,200.00 Louis Vuitton 'LV Medallion Gloves' - $495.00 Calzedonia '50 Denier Tights in Dark Red' - $15.00 Louis Vuitton 'Star Trail Ankle Boot' - $1,760.00

More monogram. Taylor appeared at the AFC Championship game wearing a literal head to toe look (mostly) by Louis Vuitton. Proving that sometimes it does have to be Louis V up in KC.

What I Learned From Those Two Years: Prior to the game I had wondered if last year’s championship outfit might be a playbook (pun intended) for today’s look - knowing that comparisons were bound to happen. I can see the similarities year over year in the oversized top, pleated mini skirt, tights, and boots combination. On the skirt, I’ve been told this is not the same skirt as last year, with thanks to the LV team for the confirmation, and is a slightly older one within the LV catalogue. However, it feels like a close enough of a callback to make the choice seem intentional. Perhaps a way of nodding to superstitions in sport with repeating “lucky” items to bring forth an optimal outcome. Whatever the reason, let’s say that it worked because the Chiefs defeated the Bills 32-29 and are - once again - headed to the Super Bowl.   

When We First Met (Gala): But even without the other LV elements of this look, I clocked these boots right away. Why? Because Taylor has a pair of Star Trail boots that she has worn on two other occasions. The first was the night before the 2016 Met Gala. The second was while out to dinner with Travis in October 2023. After a lot of staring, I can confirm this pair of ‘Star Trails’ are an updated version - discernible by the slightly different finish and the cap toe detail being absent. One of Taylor’s style pillars has always been repetition, so I’ll give half points here given it’s a style we know she has in her closet and has repeated in the past. I can imagine this fresh pair from a later collection was meant to coordinate with the rest of the recent LV pulls. 

Louis V up in KC: When it came to accessories, Louis Vuitton jewelry and bag felt like natural fits. However, knowing that Taylor has a LV watch in her collection that would have coordinated well with her head to toe (literal) branded ensemble feels noteworthy to me. The accessory that felt like it had the most story behind it was her necklace. Taylor has worn a number of vintage coin necklaces recently, including at a few Chiefs games. What immediately came to my mind was her 2024 season opener outfit which was also styled with a vintage, ancient bronze coin necklace. I imagine that something about it feels like embodying a fighting / warrior mindset to fit in with the “go fight win” of sports and the Gladiator ethos. Or else perhaps even a chic reference to a game day coin toss. I spoke with the designer, Steven, who confirmed that the face depicted on the coin, struck in 109-108BC during the Roman Republic, is the goddess Roma. Steven said, “[Roma] was believed to watch over the city’s citizens and protect them from harm, as well as being a fierce defender of Rome in war.” Steven said the necklace took approximately 1.5 days to create by Balinese goldsmith artisans with traditional handmaking techniqes. “The pendant was designed to highlight the coin and accent it in a classical manner,” he said. From an intentional styling perspective, there’s a lot of thought that goes into creating a cohesive and consistent storyline where every look “speaks” to one another to create a progression, but is distinct enough to stand as its own moment. Small callbacks like this (and the skirt - more on that later) demonstrate that thought well. I look forward to doing a full breakdown of this season’s looks (particularly in comparison to 2023-24’s season) when the final whistle blows. This artist uses real ancient coins in their work so every single piece is unique and different. Pictured above is what appears, to my eye, to be a close match to Taylor’s.

How id judge you based on your favourite FANON version of the batfamily characters

Bruce Wayne: as a self proclaimed Bruce Wayne connoisseur and lover of him in all his forms… this is the fairest one to like out of all of them. My guilty pleasure is treating myself to happy fanon fics after seeing him tortured murdered and revived again strapped to an explosive device attacked by banana man, tied up, roundhouse trip to hell, broken up with his 50th situationship that just tried to k him and lastly like a cherry on top of this shit sundae, made to give his kids a knuckle sandwich for dinner for. Whatever godforsaken reason. so yeah. I get this one. Although this good dad characterisation of him is found especially abundantly in pre crisis comics…just saying…

Dick Grayson: oh brother don’t get me started. DONT GET ME STARTED. Easily top 3 worst fanon characterisations for me. If I have to read “dick is so eldest daughter coded” I might just take my toaster out for a walk to the nearest bridge. Another case of an upbeat and quippy character being reduced to a drooling happy little sunshine baby with no thoughts behind his eyes. Either that or he’s Satan personified who threw poor little timmy in Arkham and only visits him occasionally to spit on him and then leave with his evil precious little baby Damian. (Do you see the common denominator in these yet) And the worst part is? The worst part is? The happy airhead characterisation has been made. CANON. Thank god it’s over but AT WHAT COST??? AT WHAT COST??? IM BLAMING EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU FOR NOTHING BUTT NIGHTWING I HOPE YOURE HAPPY WITH YOURSELVES.

Jason Todd: both spectrums of how he’s portrayed are equally as horrible. Why must we have either the brutish headless chicken needlessly violent (cough. Arguably classist) portrayal or the uwu🥺🥺 everyone hates me🥺🥺 for absolutely NO reason at all🥺🥺 I need to adopt baby Timmy🥺🥺 to make up for my crimes🥺🥺 portrayal. May I introduce something called the middle ground. You don’t need to operate in extremes pookie, people usually have more than one character trait it’s alright🩷. i need fanon Jason to be banned from titans tower. And the colour green. As a whole. No green for him. And also from the “enemy to caretaker” tag. Free him. Although with this one his canon portrayal is sometimes (a lot of times) on par with the fanon in terms of horrible characterisation… so if his fanon characterisation is your fav… well its not like canon gets a gold star from me either so. Go ahead. I guess. Just stop with the classism and we don’t have an issue🩷

Barbara Gordon: worst offence I’ve seen is making her Bruce’s daughter as is often done with Steph. First of all she has a father. An alive father. Who loves her and started a whole war for her. Second of all. If you told her she’s Batmans daughter she’s throwing herself into the Gotham harbour. Please stop. And the usual making her an accessory to a Batboy and stripping her of everything interesting just to make her Nightwings airheaded girlfriend. Then again. That’s also been canonised thanks to my FAVOURITE author (sarcasm) T*m T*ylor so. As you can see we are not doing well and haven’t been since they made her batgirl again. Burn the burnside suit. Ironically the women have mostly been able to avoid especially egregious mischaracterisations (apart from making them two dimensional flavourless paper cutouts) through the fandoms misogyny um I mean DISINTEREST in them, considering that Cass, Steph and Barbara COMBINED have less than 1/5 fics under their character centric tags than Tim Drake so. Ironically by being forgotten they could escape the fate of being so grossly mischaracterised they are virtually unrecognisable. With the price of being mentioned once and tossed aside in favour of centring The Batboys. Go figure

Cassandra Cain: …really? You actually LIKE what they’ve done to her in fanon? My beautiful ruthlessly honest hilarious without even trying babygirl princess… she’s been ending people verbally and physically the moment she could speak and they made her the quiet Asian girl stereotype… They took her wings… If you honestly like the version of Cass that’s a cardboard cutout bland boiled chicken version of herself and a lot of the time just lazily included for the sake of avoiding being labelled a misogynist… alright…😟 just know you’re missing out on peak that is canon Cass. Read batgirl 2000. Goody two shoes rule following Cass isn’t real she won’t hurt me

Tim Drake: this is undeniably the worst and most infamous one. Because his mischaracterisation in fanon doesn’t only affect him but. Every. Single. Person. Around him. If you genuinely like the way he’s characterised to make him the helpless noodle armed noodle legged victim of all the evil demons that surround him then… idk what to say other than please start reading comics. Please. One correctly selected storyline per character is enough. PLEASE. The way literally everyone I know hates his mischaracterisation in fanon, fans and haters alike. I could write entire essays on the damage that portrayal has done to the entire batfamily not just him. Idk how people managed to do it, it’s honestly an award worthy feat. Yeah if you like this one I can with full confidence say you do not like a single batfamily character but rather the caricature versions of them that evolved from satans asshole.

Damian Wayne: easily one of worst cases cause this one is sometimes so racist I feel like I’m looking at straight anti Arab propaganda post 9/11. What are we doing. I’ve seen people draw him in CAGES, say that “Jon tamed him” like he’s some kind of animal instead of a human being and the way #some of you villainised him when he whole ass traumatised 10 year old child is just. Wow. Comes on par with the previous persons characterisation because FOR SOME REASON… the worst portrayals of Damian are always paired with #him. Don’t even get me started on the portrayal of the other Al-ghuls. I think I might kill myself before we even finish

Stephanie brown: another case of mostly forgotten or just included for the sake of not being labelled a misogynist. I feel like out of everyone she’s lowkey has it the… I wouldn’t say best… but okayest in fanon. Apart from the usual making her A Batkids Keychain, two dimensionally stupid (as is the norm with any upbeat character😐 especially women😐) or… shudders in horror... Bruce’s daughter… I haven’t seen portrayals that are as blatantly offensive as some of the others on the list, though it could be that I was just spared those horrors by being lucky enough to not have encountered those dark corners of the fandom. Overall very tame though you’re very welcome to share your horror stories with her fanon portrayal because I am sure there are a lot. Her canon portrayal now is. Bad enough. Don’t even remind me of how they made her be towards Bernard and Tim cause I fear I will throw up. She should be allowed to throw stones at all of their heads as enrichment

Duke Thomas: same problem as Cass’. Being toned down to a two dimensional goody-two-shoes who follows all the rules like the innocent angel he is!! Totally not because people only include him to avoid being called racist and not make an effort to learn what he’s actually like so they default to the safest characterisation: nothing!!!! Man I love the way any character that’s not a white man is portrayed in fandoms!!! If you like this version of duke im confused on what you like exactly cause it’s so far removed from his canon characterisation it’s insane. Like the sheer bigotry in picking the most complex characters and making them two dimensional rule following goody two shoes to avoid GOD FORBID having to actually put them in your plots and portray them correctly just because they’re not white men is. Yeah. I’m tired of this. Then again the white men aren’t even portrayed correctly so nobody is having fun but AT LEAST THEYRE THERE!!!!

Alfred Pennyworth: listen. I’m not saying he doesn’t have his good moments where he’s a decent father/grandfather figure. but let’s not act like he’s this innocent faultless angel frail old man who’s never done anything wrong in his entire life and has been the best father figure in existence. He is NOT. I’m tired of all of you acting scandalised when someone dares to not like him for VERY good reasons. But I guess liking his fanon characterisation is comparatively not as bad as some of the others so. You get a pass

Kate Kane: I don’t think fanon even knows she exists so there isn’t much of a “fanon version” to like. Although Im sure she’s probably mischaracterised whenever someone shoehorns her cardboard cutout into their fics to fill their 25% women quota but it’s not as wide spread as say Cass or Steph’s mischaracterisations.

At least from what I’ve personally seen as this is a subjective opinion about the way Batman characters are often portrayed in fandom.

A Haunted Doll's new kid

“A Damian and he's haunted doll”

Instead of Jason having Danny as his childhood doll or haunted doll, how about if Damian got haunted doll Danny?

--------------------------------------------

Where a young Talia Al Ghul stumbled across a very old and abandoned mansion in a middle of nowhere, only tall dark trees and harsh winds accompany her outside of the manor, at her vulnerable worse moments, her team was ambushed by a very cunning new group..took a lot of damaged out of her but she survived and now left wandering on her own, without anyway to contact the league or if she will faced punishment for being defeated, she decided to seek shelter inside the lifeless Manor for the time being, but to her surprise inside the manor it was warm as if no sign of abandonment as if it was alive, only one there was a beautiful baby doll.. something those rich young daughters would play at those times she heard from rich society of children..

Only Alive entity keeping her warm and welcome, so she decided to bring it to the League and no matter how childish this action was..she really can't stop letting go until she give it to her son in his 12 birthday, hoping him to take care of the Precious doll as if a heirloom, which it is😅

-----------------------------------------------

Damian knew what this Doll was, it was his mother's doll. A doll so clean and beautiful, he never understand why there was a doll back then at the league.

It was his first everytime to even see a doll up closed than reading and imagining it at textbooks and examples of words in his former lessons, the Doll was strange.

Unlike The doll, it felt alive, warm and cozy like a child would be clingy to it's parent

He could feel waves of emotions he could distinct knowing the Doll's feelings..

No matter how much time passed after his mother gave it to him, he knows understands why he's mother would take care of this Doll.

No matter how much his family freak out at the constant, chairs spinning too see the baby doll sitting in it, finding in other places standing, moving heads, and little joyful laughter's. (Except for Alfred cause he already accepted the doll,)

------------------------------------

Danny was absolutely not amused, after a whole prank war with the fam, Ellie and the others decided to trap him in this stupid girly baby doll, with a brand label with his name💀 and decided to drop him off to a abandoned version of Vlad's house just for funzies if a few mortals ever get scared, but it kinda backfired now he's been getting good care through this girl now turn woman then her son is now taking care of him, he is grateful he isn't some kind of heirloom..right? But it was fun haunting this so called bats, even sending Grey hairs to his new profound kid caretaker,

----------------------------------------

Danny appearance as a doll is a female baby doll, that is plump and porcelain, he also has a voice box for the original dolls lines, but he sometimes make some unholy and demonic noises to scare one of the bats except for Alfred or Damian, the doll that he was inside in had Caucasian skin, dark hair and deep blue eyes that look like had stars twinkling in it which he approved, his dress was a plump white dress that had green designs in it that was glowing, a small beautiful beach hat and a cute glowing green heels? Shoes ya that's the description and some cute accessories like a golden bracelet which had unique jewels like emerald, ruby, and etc,

when talia found him, the Girls, Ellie had created a very doll like luggage with his necessities, clothes, things for dolls..which he considers are now his own belongings after being used to the routine in the league and how he accept this as a vacay cause he knows CW is watching him😅

[electraslight]

I think you should at least address the issues they have with your work proper. Which is mainly the racism allegations and not whatever that was you posted which was, all in all a pretty crappy response to some serious stuff.

my original response is linked here, i'm aware it's very poor, i was upset. forgive me

I will address it, I was just waiting to gather my thoughts, talk things out with people who know better than I, and avoid rushing in to things.

I have not seen the allegations in full, since I am avoiding Twitter and I blocked the main accuser for reasons stated in my original response. I think many of their accusations are unfounded and based on anger, and I will explain why.

First the smaller things I will address:  I do draw porn and I am not ashamed of it. It is completely aged up, behind an adult paywall, and not depicting any taboo act. I do not think this is an issue.

Second, orientalism and my art: I have stated many times that I pull from cultural dress for my work and my designs. Characters like Willow have designs inspired by Korean Hanfu and specific periods in Korean history. However, many characters are not designed based on Asian cultures, and if they are, are not fetishized or romanticized. In my version of the boiling isles, every witch is the distant descendant of a human who slipped through the veins and passed things like food and accessories down with them, as well as articles of clothing also being adopted after slipping into the realm. I am only aware of one specific character being named, if not please inform me, but Amity is based on Tudor period English fashion and Turkish clothing, specifically Kazakh. I will insert my references here.

If my use of referential clothing is inappropriate to you, I severely apologize. I think there are so many amazing cultures with interesting dress that I wanted to draw and if I used an article of clothing in an inappropriate fashion, I apologize.

However, orientalism connotes a fantasy I do not have and my work does not indulge in consciously- these people are people and are not exotic aliens that exist to please white people, wearing costumes that deface cultural practices. I intend their style of dress as a natural evolution, because the culture on the boiling Isles developed independently of the real world, and just like in real life, while many remnants of the past still exist in people's clothing, styles change with time. If my art was orientalist without my knowledge, I apologize, and I will change my way of making this sort of art in the future and do more research on what I draw.

I hope my depictions of these things don't make you feel like I view them as props; when I draw clothes, it's usually because I read an article or a book about a group of people and felt moved. The weight to culture is what conveys me to draw what I draw, and I wanted to make people feel seen. If that wasn't my place, I apologize once again, and in the future, my art will rely a lot less on cultural reference, except to my own.

The racism accusation is difficult for me to explain succinctly, so I apologize if there are issues in relaying it. I am being accused of being inappropriate with my depiction of Raine and Belos in this (link here) drawing, and this post I made about how I wanted to draw Darius and Belos similarly.

My blase wording concerning my ideas on Darius and Belos was an issue, I do admit, and I apologize for the confusion. I have many issues with this statement, however. My first being that I have drawn many characters at inappropriate odds with Belos, something which many artists in the TOH fandom do. In fact, here's a link to a post I made specifically about how Belos's obsessive fixation on others, specially his brother, is a metaphor for his colonialist and evangalistic evil. The issue in my recent piece is that I did not convey the toxicity and possession angle enough. The thing that compelled me about Belos and Raine was that Belos's tendency to try to break and destroy those that oppose him is something Raine turns around on him, using his own manipulative tactics and his overeager desire to defeat them to their advantage. 

The way Raine looks at the viewer with no emotion when Belos is attempting to draw one from them, Belos's bravado and desperation putting them at odds, but they are in control. It was not a romanticization, it was about power, and how Belos invades boundaries to get what he wants, destroying everything he touches. I don't ship them, this isn't ship art, just like my art of Caleb and Belos isn't ship art. Belos's insidious perversion is the focus.

It was a similar thought for Darius too, since me and some friends had watched Eda’s Requiem that day and I was thinking about the coven heads and Belos. At that moment, I was viewing Raine as the character, the politician and revolutionary. Their hatred of Belos consumed them and made them better, powerful enough to defeat him through passion, and that resonated deeply with me.

 I know as a white person I have blind spots. There are things that I don't notice that can be harmful, but I don't have the experience to tell. In the past, I drew one piece that I now deeply regret, of a swap au where Luz was the emperor instead of Belos, with Camilla as a grimwalker. Camilla was very burly and large, and in the moment I didn't see how frankly uncomfortable it was, but when I was informed by friends and the public, I realized how it looked, deleted it, and apologized.

However, I think in this case it is a question of interpretation. Insidious possession was my intention, and I have drawn this many times before with different characters. I don't see it as particularly erotic because Raine is a person of color, and it frankly disgusts me to think about it like that.

I wanted to address this one last because it makes me the most angry. There has been an assertion floating around that I fetishize native culture, depicting Evelyn naked and the (based on canon, by the way-barbarians are mentioned more than once) barbarian lore page. To this is to say: I am native European, specifically Irish. My drawings have helped me realize who I am and my relation to my culture, and I write and draw to depict my experiences and my family's. I am called “ignorant”, however people assume Evelyn, who is based on a bastardized version of my ancestors and the barbarians who are based on how my people were talked about by the British, are all perversions of “real” native people.

These are the Pict 'barbarians' Evelyn is based on.

My people were killed for speaking their language, my grandma doesn't know what happened to her grandmother because she had to escape, and there are fewer Irish people in Ireland now than there were 200 years ago. There are so many native people on Earth and no one person is going to have the same experience, and just because our experiences don't line up doesn't mean mine don't matter in this conversation.

 I am a victim of colonization and I am passionate about the topic, it's why TOH enchanted me. I was moved by the insidious nature of Belos's reign, how it slowly killed everyone it touched. How culture was stomped out with bullshit law, how Belos sought complete control over those he viewed as stupid and barbaric. That's what I make art about, about why he's wrong, about what he did. I won't ever apologize for sharing my experiences, and I have tried to be mature this whole time, but it is frankly xenophobic and ignorant of you to assert otherwise.

Tl;dr: I am sorry if my depictions of your culture felt like I was using them as toys or for my own gain, and I need to take more care in addressing my blind spots and talking to people about ideas before I have them. You don't deserve to be a plaything, and in the future my art will look very different. However, I think many of these accusations are purely people piling on to already present accusations with more stuff because they like to feel like they're on the right side of an argument. I resent the fact that I have been told my culture doesn't matter in this conversation when I relay my experiences, just because ours don't match up. 

I'm going to keep doing what I love and making things, probably stuff you won't see. I have a medical condition that gets worse with stress so I will be offline for a bit. Thank you and good day.

It's here! Halloween! And my Simblreen treat 4! This time, nothin' says lovin' like somethin' for your coven! (That was terrible. I'm kinda sorry, but not very.) There's something for every kind of witch in @satterlly's Witching Hour part 1. I converted all of the clothes and made a little offshoot of one of the dresses. Everything is AF only (sorry, blame the second dead laptop), set as Everyday, and has both morphs. All dresses come without tights in 30 textures and with tights in 5 textures. There's so much here, including three new shoe conversions, so this is a very long post. Or you can download it all right now.

Download: SFS or MediaFire

(Accessories not included - Mostly by Skell)

Note: For reasons I don't understand (and trust me, I tried to fix it), some of these have that thing where there are little skin-color lines at the edges when you zoom out. It only happens on my gaming laptop, not the one with worse graphics. I have no idea why, and if anyone knows how to fix it, please let me know. I hope you want them anyway and it doesn't happen on your computer.

DressShort is an explosion of ruffles. It comes with Skell's witch ankle boots, because DeeDee used them recently and I was running out of time. Some dress colors have new boot recolors by me, as seen in the preview at the top.

DressMedium has the same neckline and sleeves as DressShort, but a full mid-calf skirt. It comes with mary janes by Elfdor (RIP).

This is just too cool, right? A mid-calf skirt and tucked in graphic tee. I paired it with Mina Boots by Solistair (retired).

And last of the Satterlly originals in this bunch, 1Sleeve dress. It comes with @madlensims' Bellanza Boots, the short version. I love the asymmetrical hem with the mock neck and single sleeve.

I was inspired to riff on that style and wound up (thanks to a poll) with a shorter version with two long sleeves. (Ok, they're 3/4 sleeves, but shh.) It also comes with Madlen's Bellanza Boots and is repo'ed to the 1Sleeve dress for the non-tights version.

Just because we've come to the very end of my Simblreen stuff, that doesn't mean I'm done with the frightful festivities. Look for one more thing later today! (If anyone actually read this far, hi!)

[weepingtalecowboy]

Time is legend's successor (egg =chicken paradox way )

Fanfic prompt: A thing I noticed about the timeline is the fact that several entries are missing from the current version of the timeline

And with echoes of wisdom also existing

I just had a funny gruesome take on the timeline

Considering that in link to the past there are literally two endings (which already creates a different branch in the downfall timeline if we talk technicality)

Being one where link beats the hell out of the four shades of the four swords palace and snatched the four sword as an accessory (if you buy four swords adventure for the gba as well as link to the past)

And the other being the normal run of link to the past without the bonus temple

Like technically that already would break the timeline up into more branches (for the downfall timeline)

So what if echoes of wisdom and adventure of link lay on those two timelines lol

Like one where the total downfall happened being adventure of link

And one with echoes of wisdom that had an opportunity to regain its power… and also beat the shit out of null

That way both fit in while also taking the bonus temple into consideration

With that what if echo and hyrule are both legend's successors the same way that twilight , wind and legend are time's

Why, because angst is hilarious images how disappointed hyrule will be when he realizes that he isn’t just a disappointing successor but that there is a timeline where a much better successor came over and there never was a problem with fixing stuff

And legend feeling even worse because hyrule would never have to fix anything if he simply did better… like he clear did in echo's timeline

Like the possibilities were not a problem until echo came around and both noticed that legend COULD do better

That it wasn’t destiny for Legenda to fail and hyrule to fall

That there is just a timeline legend DID fail and hyrule ended up falling

Just hyrule and wind bonding over a failed timeline where everything is a mess (either over run with monsters or just straight up drowned by the goddesses)

And legend and time also bonding over failing so horrendously that it isn’t even funny

But it could get even worse seeing as it is theorized that the downfall timeline was the original timeline and the complete downfall of hyrule was destined

But what if it gets more insane and the timeline where echoes of wisdom is in was the original one

AND the other timeline was the one that annihilated the timeline into a time tree mess of a garden

The goddess hates meddling afterall

Seeing as how an entire timeline was just drowned duo to lullabies trigger happy use of the ocarina lol

Like the wish that gave the hero of time a second chance NOT being part of the original timeline

(it happening in the palace timeline because link met the hero of the four sword and realized that much more people suffered from ganon instead just reviving people close to him would also fit thematically because reviving everyone you ever knew suffered and reviving everyone including the hero of the past who ended up being some random child would be different wishes as one meddles with time )

So the mess of a timeline just happening because legend met four at some point and wanted to save the hero before him as well

Accidentally splitting the timeline into two

Just for time to dip out of another because ganon was too destructive and lullaby thought it was a good idea and that again splitting the timeline

Now there are the three anomalies and the original timeline

Making it four branches (until flora makes it into five because fruit gummy)

Two for legend and two for time leaving only flora's creative project

Like the angst of everything being legend getting creative and time being his successor in this very creativity (while flora did an entirely different job at creativity)

We need more time being legend's successor while legend also has hyrule and echo as successor’s and technically also wind and twilight fics because the potential is indeed endless and hilarious

Like legend being the first ever person to annihilate hylia's precious timeline then time following his example and then wind, twilight, hyrule and echo being the results is hilarious to think about while flora is in the background in a completely different time tree

I decided to spruce up the Thorn and the Spectre today - one of the problems when you have a big art project that keeps growing despite your attempts to end it because you're having too much fun with it is that your skills grow with it, and eventually you look back on the first parts of it and being like, "Uh, yeah, I think we can do better than we did." This is why Tyrantis's soft sculpture model has two whole remodelings.

The Spectre's touch-ups were somewhat minor. I added more transparent material to the interior of her skirt so she feels a bit more substantial, and then, uh... cut off her face for the second time and gave her a third and final one. This time I used the technique I first tried with the Beast of layering the foam rubber on her head so she has naturally sunken eye sockets and cheeks, then covered it in a thin layer of fabric so the seams aren't as noticeable. It worked, I think she looks much closer to the cute ghost she is in the game! Also now she has her old face as a fun accessory.

With the Thorn, I decided to do something I had initially intended to do, but decided against because it seemed to have a bad ratio of "insane amount of fiddly intricate detail work" to "things people will actually notice and give a shit about. Namely, cutting out a bunch of tiny little thorns to put on her vines and gluing them all on individually. Even now I can feel Dennis Nedry waving his hat around and saying, "See? Nobody cares!" about all the effort I put into this, but dammit, this is the Thorn! My favorite princess! She should have her namesake! I also made some extra vines to put in her hair to make her more canon-compliant, which of course meant I had to make even more tiny little fucking thorns no one will notice.

It's ok, she's worth it. She's worth it.

Oh, and I beefed up her legs a bit with some more fabric. Her original legs were too twiggy and it was really noticeable whenever I stood her next to the other princesses, so now she's got stronger gams.

...and since I had the hot glue gun anyway, I decided to make one last new princess. As a treat! The Princess and the Dragon is one of my favorite routes of the game, and it can result in one version of the princess who's, like, color inverted - where the other princesses look like cross-hatched pencil drawings, this one looks like a cross-hatched chalk drawing, and it's just a really cool effect that I wanted to try and figure out how to do. I... I'm kind of ok with the result? I like the felt I got for the hair, it's dark gray with streaks of white and really feels as close to the chalk drawing looks as I can probably get with that material. Unfortunately, the white-ink pen I got to try and do detailing on her face did not show up as well as its black-ink siblings have - you can kinda sorta see the lines I drew on for her lower lip and eyebrows if you squint, but yeah, bit of a disappointing result, especially since I was hoping to be able to use it to give her skin some of those faint chalk cross-hatching lines that make her look so cool. Still, she looks nice next to her fellow princesses!

I imagine if I was good with paint there'd probably be some sort of fabric paint that would work, but I can never use the stuff without it globbing everywhere.

The funny thing is, while I think she's one of the most visually striking princess designs, the ending that gets you the photo-negative Princess isn't my favorite for The Princess and the Dragon route. My favorite is the one where you and her get out of the basement and just lay on the grass together. Sure, her design isn't as striking in that one - she's almost identical to how she appears in the beginning of the game, just missing a hand and bearing an x-shaped scar on her heart - but it's such a sweet, tender little moment, and I savor those in the game. Definitely the least interesting P&D take on the princess to make a doll of, but perhaps the one that's more dear to my heart.

...

but I did say this would be my last one, so...

Jackson and Holt headcanons

- they both use xenogenders. I don't care, it's true.

- Jackson constantly wishes to know what music sounds like and feels like he'll never truly live without such a grand experience. It's something that all normies and monsters alike adore, and he will never even touch.

- Jackson loves scene clothing, but he can't dress the way he wants because of anxiety. He buys a lot of scene accessories and makes kandi bracelets himself, but never uses it. Holt on the other hand will raid their wardrobe and go to concerts absolutely DECKED out in Jackson's stuff. Jackson started wearing his own stuff because Holt kept leaving him messages about how many compliments he would always get for the clothing! ❤

- even though he doesn't need to, Jackson takes way too many precautions to keep himself from transforming. He reads a lot and rarely even scrolls social media in fear because there always seems to be music in every video!

- Jackson has a lot of mental health issues, and the discovery of Holt definitely didn't help. To know that there was a cooler version of him that everyone loved that constantly replaced him? It was horrible. However, Holt isn't the type of guy to leave another man kicked down. He constantly leaves notes on the refrigerator for Jackson to cheer him up with cute doodles, and he always tells his friends about how 'awesome this one Jackson fella is!' And how 'you just gotta meet him!'

- Holt has multiple Pinterest board of tattoos he wants in the future and hair styles he wants to try out. Holt actually really enjoys fashion, almost as much as he enjoys art and rock n' roll!

- You'd think that since Jackson is the 'nerd,' he'd be doing all the work in school to keep their head above water. However, Holt makes sure to pull his weight. He's the top student in art class, music class, and doing very well in gym too!

- Not a headcanon but a question; where are their parents? Why the hell did they never tell them about the transformations??

- Jackson is only able to watch Nature Documentaries because the background music is too peaceful to force Holt out.

- they send each other stupid tweets they find 😭 they actually have a very similar sense of humor, however, Jackson's is a bit more witty and sometimes dryer.

- Jackson used to study astrology when he was younger, but eventually moved onto other things such as science and psychology. He'd love to make a blog like Spectra or even become a journalist, but he doesn't feel like his anxiety could handle it. Nevertheless, he's determined to follow his dreams. He gets a lot of help from Frankie, as well as Clawdia too! Clawdia taught him a lot about writing and even promoted him on her blog! Now, his blog is linked in Spectras bio as a recommendation and they do a lot of collabs. Jackson helps a lot with Spectra because he's good at getting the facts and preventing her from providing senseless rumors. He also writes a lot with Venus about climate change and the environment, and assists to start a lot of movements and fundraisers.

- Everyone has something they're insecure about, even Holt Hyde. You might be wondering however, what could he of all people possibly be embarrassed by? Well, since he goes to a lot of parties away from home, he likes to bring a small plush princess goblin with him to keep him company. He spends a lot of time buying little clothes for it and even makes extra food so it can have a plate at the diner table.

- A lot of things play music, but Holt definitely has a favorite. He owns his own CD player that he's decked out in colorful stickers, ESPECIALLY puffy ones. He loves puffy stickers, fuzzy stickers, glittery stickers, scented stickers, all of them!

30 minute missions: Eexm-S01U/S03H Forestieri review

Alright, so after years of doing reviews on the gundam amino, I finally decided that I need to make my stuff more public. So this review that I posted there was kind of planned a while back prior to uploading but motivation was low….which really told me I need to do this stuff immediately. So now we’re here reviewing a model kit that has become my first review and my most recent review the Forestieri from the 30 minute missions line of model kits.

As implied with the name of this line, this bad boy can be built in about 30 minutes if you truly lock the fuck in, less if you’re mass producing these. Heck, there’s brief instructions with each kit that helps make things streamlined as the 30mm line excels at being army builder kits focused on customization. Even now when each kit is becoming more specialized with unique parts for each color type, they still have this mentality of making custom units. The Forestieri is one of them, with the original kit being the white color scheme that 30 mm does, primarily white with this light purple as a secondary color and green as the clear part color. The design feels like a light weight unit with the helicopter cockpit head and light shoulder parts, but this is contrasted with the thicc thighs and forearm shields. Beam rifle and beam saber is held on the back, which looks good with the saber but the blaster…..it sticks up too much. But hey, the guy needs as much height as he could get as the Forestieri is short.

Next to the standard units in this line, it becomes very much clear why I said this looks like a light weight unit. Though in all fairness, it isn’t the shortest unit. I mean here it is next to the armored assault mecha

Now I mentioned earlier that the more recent 30mm kits have unique parts between color variations. Well the Forestieri 03 kind of shows that with the new skirt guard….the only difference. Anyone reminded of those Jegan kits from P Bandai what differed between A,B, and C types in small ways? I remember, I have all 3. But outside of that, I really do like the dark blue with hints of regular blue and orange clear parts. The colors really mesh together very well and it’s kind of become a preferred color for me.

Now about the accessories, both versions of this kit comes with the previously mentioned blaster and saber.

Unlike most blasters in the 30mm line that are modular to a major degree with optional stocks, barrels, even a chainsaw for the Rabiot , the only customization on these is a clip and 2 ports to plug stuff onto. I could see some mounting options with these but I’d like to see what you guys did to customize this, share in the reblogs. As for the saber hilt, I think it’s the first of the line that came with a kit (correct me if I’m wrong) and it’s fairly simplistic compared to other beam sabers I’ve seen. But it gets the job done, even has a port that makes it comparable with other beam parts and I think also blade parts from other sets. What makes these unique is that the beam color is dependent on the clear plastic in the kit, so that’s a neat thing to make either kit stand out

As for articulation, ballpoint at the top of the neck, Back n’ Forth for the base, ball joints at the shoulders, swivel at the top of the arm, singular elbow bend, ball jointed wrist, ball joint at the top of the abdomen that is a bit too loose on these but manageable (the ball joint connecting to the hips are solid), side to side in the middle of the abdomen, rods on the legs allow the hip to extend, rotation and spread of the hips being very wide, double bend at the knee, ankle pivots back n’ forth, and foot ball joint for tilting. So a bit limiting around the shoulders without a butterfly joint but damn can these things pose in a lot of ways despite that. The picture below is me trying poses that uses as much of these joints as possible

Now for customization, there are numerous ports on the body for pegs, some clips on the thighs, backpack, and heel, finally the shoulders can be replaced. So with that, I was able to make this commander type a while back using Raibot shoulders and a wire from the pipe part custom material set (along with some extra bits from that monocycle set). I’m planning on getting the energy weapon set to give it an energy tank for the backpack.

It’s simple but affective. Heck, these sets give you options in the instructions on how to customize these including what sets were used to make the example model (I’ve even built some of these customs myself) and it really does remind me of those combo models in bionicle sets that encourage you to buy another set to make the model. But out of curiosity, any if you modified a Forestieri? I’d also like to see that in the reblogs

Overall, I love the Forestieri’s esthetics, even the gas mask design the 02 and 04 has, it’s a small but effective kit that has the potential of getting bigger with option sets, other kits, and one’s creativity. I’m curious what you guys think, along with the prompts I made throughout the review. I do recomend any 30mm kits, and this one is a must have as I think it’s a good entry into the line.

Anyways, this is my first tumblr review and I hope somebody finds and enjoys this. Even then, I’ll still post stuff whether or not anyone sees it. Because at the end of the day, it’s kind of therapeutic to put my through down on a subject and just have it out there. The fact someone sees it, even just one, it just a bonus, especially if they have their own opinions to share. Hope to see you soon, next review…..I don’t know, reply or reblog a suggestion. Heck, you can send an ask for a review idea, it doesn’t just have to be model kits, it can also be transformers.
