the mane axe is a hairbrush. the auto axe is a toothbrush. so is the toxic axe.

during the events of chapter 4, gerson drags susie out of her slump, he encourages her storytelling as a fellow author and teaches her how to practice her craft. because he saw a story burn in her eyes, brighter and blacker than everything around them.

so gerson gave her the justice axe.

he gave her a paintbrush.

~Pōkami Brush Gods~

This took both longer and shorter to do than I thought it would take BUT YEAH IT THEM!! EVERYONE IS HERE!!!

I've been wanting to do this piece ever since I began thinking up who was gonna be who for the brush gods, but also knew it was gonna be really hard to do at the same time, the final layer count came to 73 layers its insane how many I used! I'm very very happy how it came out in the end, especially when I remembered I could texture layers on Sai again to make the piece a bit more weathered and papery like the OG image this is based off of!

Best I could do but still very proud of how it came together in the end!

Zoomed in shots of everyone for easier viewing under the cut!

Original Pokami post that also links the individual brush gods posts

Look at all of them guys!

And! A teeny tiny wandering surveyor Rei!!

With this being under the cut PLEASE tumblr do not eat this version Ive tried everything and the tags for searching up the other ones get ruined!!! I WANT THE WORLD TO SEE POKAMI MY DUMB PASSION AND I WORK SO HARD ON THIS ONEEEEE!!! ;W;

Dear, sweet, Littlefoot, do you remember the way to the Great Valley?  I guess so. But why do I have to know if you’re going to be with me? I’ll be with you. Even if you can’t see me. What do you mean I can’t see you? I can always see you.

The fear of abandonment isn’t just about people leaving, it’s the gut-wrenching belief that you aren’t worth staying for.

it’s crazy how different you get treated in a mask but what really gets me is that when people ask why I’m masking, I’ve stopped saying I’m immunodeficient and started saying I have an immunodeficient family member at home. I am not exaggerating when I tell you this has 100% improved every single encounter I’ve had with anti-maskers. i’m not exaggerating in the slightest.

i used to tell people i’m immunodeficient and they’d ask invasive questions about my diagnosis, whether my parents kept my childhood overly sterile, whether I was vaccinated as a child (with the implication that it would have been bad if I were).

Now that I say I have an immunodeficient family member at home, people smile knowingly and say, “oh, well you do what you have to do,” and “my mom went through chemo. I remember how hard it was to do all the precautions” and “that’s so kind of you.”

if i tell someone i mask because i’m disabled, i’m assumed to be the weak link in our society, a burden to my family.

if i tell someone i mask to protect a disabled family member, i become the burdened, compassionate caretaker deserving of sympathy. how sad that i must limit myself to protect someone i love. how heroic that i choose to do so.

theres this maneuver people do online (& sometimes irl) where they just sort of pretend not to comprehend sexuality for the sake of trying to embarrass somebody--like whenever theres a post to the effect of "so i saw a funny thing on this gay porn website" there's inevitably a heap of comments like "why were you on a gay porn website 😭😭" as if it's like this really unusual uncommon & scandalous thing. like. it takes negative effort to deduce why somebody might be browsing a gay porn site lol. & in addition to being self-evidently reactionary, this like theatrics of mediating a performance of being scandalized over porn or fetishes or hookups or whatever through feigned ignorance is just. really deeply annoying. like if you want to call somebody a pervert degenerate etc then say it with your whole chest instead of verbally hoverhanding your insult
