This right here is the #1 reason I am not giving poptart a little leo/not ruining his timeline, btw, LMAO

[reddpenn]

Now that I'm back from the gem and mineral show, here are all the Cool Rocks I came home with!

A cute little coral fossil! He looks like a cauliflower.

A Keokuk geode! These geode beds aren't far from where I live, and it's always fun to have local specimens.

Phosphosiderite! This purple stone comes from Chile. It's so soft that it has to be stabilized with resin before it's cut. This one is a cross section of a botryoidial formation!

Speaking of botryoidial, this Hematite! Botryoidial means it has a bubbly shape kind of like a bunch of grapes. The faces of the bubbles on this pieces are super shiny and metallic.

Dendritic chalcedony, from Turkey! It's a white chalcedony full of dendrites - branching formations of manganese that look kind of like trees!

A cabochon for my cab collection! This one is made from a material sometimes called "ajooba jasper." The pattern is actually a cross section of a bunch of colorfully jasperized bivalve fossils!

Speaking of jasper, this one is Blue Mountain jasper, from Oregon! The circles in this stone are what’s known as an “egg pattern,” and jaspers which have them (Blue Mountain, Imperial jasper, and a few others) are collectively known as “fine jaspers,” the most valuable jaspers in the world.

Hyalite opal! This stuff forms water-clear spheres that look like jelly.

It fluoresces bright green under UV light!

Now to show off this year's haul of awesome agates!

Dryhead agate, from the Bighorn Mountains in Montana! This agate is named after the many bison skulls found in the area. A weird shaped guy with awesome red and orange bands.

Bou Lili agate, from Morocco! I like the name of this one. Soft banding and very subtle, muted colors. I've heard that this locale can produce peachy colors too.

Bear Canyon agate, from the Pryor Mountains in Montana! Agates from this locale have very stark black and white banding.

Red Fox agate, from Argentina! Sometimes this material is also called "crater agate" because the area it comes from is near the crater of an ancient volcano.

A Blue Sky thunderegg, from New Mexico! Thundereggs from this locale often have this two pointed, saucer-like shape.

It fluoresces really brightly!

Dulcote agate, from England! The bands of this agate are full of calcite, which gives them a strange, distinct texture.

Malawi agate, from Malawi! See all the cracks in it? Almost all Malawi agates have them. Frequent earthquakes due to the East African Rift cause these agates to crack and fracture.

Paint Rock agate, from Paint Rock Valley in Alabama! This agate is very rarely banded, and usually just contains swirls of red and yellow color.

A big, unpolished slab of Montana agate! This agate is known for its clear banding and black lines and spots, which are caused by manganese dendrites.

It's best viewed with some light behind it!

A smaller piece with really amazing dendrites!

Here it is backlit!

Fighting Blood agate, from Hebei Provence in China! This locale is known for its super saturated reds and yellows. This piece has purple amethyst crystals growing inside! They didn't photograph well; they are much more purple in person.

A really weird Fighting Blood agate! This one lacks the bright colors typical of this locale, but makes up for it with that super cool spiderweb pattern!

And finally, as is tradition, I came home with some Ethiopian opals! Here are the five I got this year.

And that's everything I got at the show!

Digimon Card Template->

Hey guys, I finally finished the templates! A few words to read before using, and more words under the cut if you will. I'd love to see any and all cards you create, so feel free to leave me an ask or DM! Also if you feel like supporting me a little, feel free to stop by my ko-fi->

First off, all fonts you need for the template are in the "Card Template Fonts" rar file. Remember to install them first before opening the files. Second, I recommend working with the PSD file in Photoshop, if you can. It has more and easier customization. If you use CSP, do use the CSP files. The PSD Text layers don't work in CSP, as well as certain other settings. I did my best to adapt the file to CSP, and it should work fine!

The Files have "HELP" layers in certain folders, I recommend reading them! Some of the Information I will repeat under the cut.

HAVE FUN! I wanna see lotta cards!

Okay, below the cut I'll leave some notes on how the Digimon cards are designed, as of the num <03> era at least.

Digimon cards have seven different colors. Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Black, Purple, and White. White cards are rare and reserved for special Digimon/Tamers, and usually don't interact with other colors. For easier reading, Yellow and White cards have black text in their colors, instead of the usual white text. On multicolored cards, card including Yellow (or white) have white text with a black outline. (before <03> if Yellow was the first color, the text was black with white outline instead, but they unified it with the update) The color on the left is considered the first color. Since the design update, the Card color is displayed in a color wheel around the Play cost. The digivolution cost bubble also recieved a color wheel, as well as the buble being split into the differen colors. Imagining it like a clock, the top color is the first, and then circling clockwise. Digi-Egg, or Lv.2 Digimon are always single color.

[tricolored cards have been introduced just recently and super rare. use sparingly]

Now to the Effects. The main effect is in white color with a black outline (also outlines on the keywords), while the Inherited Effect doesn't have outlines (unless it's a Yellow double color). If the Digimon has no Inherited Effect, there will be a small dash in the box.

Only white cards have black text in their main effect.

The effect text will start in the lower bottom of the image, not all the way at the bottom, and go down from there. If the Effect is too long it will move up.

Besides the regular evolution requirements, Digimon may have special "Digivolve" rules in their effect. This can make an evolution from a specific digimon cheaper, allow X Antibody Digimon to evolve from their normal counterparts, serve to overlook color requirements, or to allow evolution from certain traits, etc.

Some Digimon may also have an extra "Rule" in the bottom corner.

Ace Digimon will always have [Hand][Counter]<Blast Digivolve> effects. Most of them have no inherited effects. They also have a significantly cheaper play cost than comparable Digimon, but in turn have the Overflow mechanic. EX6 introduced Blast DNA Digivolution, which specifies the required Digimon by name, and not just Level and color.

Lv.6 Digimon usually don't have inherited Effects, some might though, if they were made with Lv.7 evolution in mind. Furthermore Lv.6 Digimon pop out of their frame, even on the normal arts.

Now Tamers originally had neither traits, nor inheritence effects. But certain Tamers now do! Tamers with Mind Link effects, or the kids from Frontier for example, will have Inherited Effects.

Option cards have a grey backdrop for their effects, and the effect text is black. This black effect text carries over to full/alt arts, regardless of color. The have a (use) cost instead of a play cost. They can also have traits or rules, but it is rare.

PILE ONE

Astrology: Leo, Pisces, Virgo (maybe cancer)

Song: Her Diamonds by Rob Thomas

Vibes: Green, red, yellow, ohi'a tree blossoms, intense emotion, crabs, birch tree, Pele, bow staff, modeling, boho fashion, photography, 999, 4444, swords, lotus root, dragons, monkeys, selenite, howlite

Cards: Queen of Wands, King of Cups, Judgement, Supermoon, Garden

Hello, pile one! I am really digging y'all's energy. You have a very androgynous energy so people have a lot of variety in how they perceive you. I think first I will start with your style and ease into those who know you a bit deeper. So, your style is very earth-toned. How you dress tells people that you are reasonable and balanced. You hate wearing shoes so you don't wear them if you don't have to. You might have a touch of fantasy in your accessories. I see crystal bracelets or pendulum necklaces. You like to wear loose-fitting clothes that make you feel free. I'm specifically seeing a long red skirt. It's about knee length. If a skirt doesn't resonate it could also be a red jacket or sweater that you tie around your waist. People initially see a really free spirit with a whimsical side. People might be surprised by your free spirit but not usually put off by it. You have a very cheerful vibe to you that makes people feel at home. They view you as light on your feet and a positive influence on everything around you. However, occasionally you get excited by something and your eyes narrow in. You have a very intense stare. It can be pretty intimidating.

As for the androgyne tones I was feeling earlier I will now explain a little further. So, you sorta reflect gender at people. This is not to say you are gender fluid or nonbinary but that is a possibility. The vibe I am getting is whatever gender the person perceiving you is, is the gender they see you as. Which can drastically change how people see you, in my experience. Women see you as safe to be around. Men see you as capable and responsible. Nonbinary people see you as a comrade. This also brings in a lot of suiters that get confused by your presentation. I hear many people see you and think, "Woah, did you see them? They looked so cool." These people are always too shy to say anything to you though.

The people who are closest to you view you entirely differently. They know you well enough to see your truest emotion. Your emotions are as intense as the stare I talked about earlier. You have the heart of a dragon. It is difficult to express the deep feelings a dragon would feel through a humans body. It comes out as explosive bursts of immense sensational expression. You are the one laughing the hardest, crying the most, screaming the loudest, burning with fury and jumping all around when you get excited. The people closest to you see you as powerful because of this. They know you are harmless but if challenged you can be extremely dangerous. You are the king of sentiment though so the ones closest never get caught in the crossfire of your emotional depth.

Song: Daddy AF by Slayyyer (spirit picked this one... not sure why)

Vibes: Purple, storm cloud blue, peach pink, cranes, wings, bindi, bangs/fringe, sake, green tea, circles, red lips, 222, 555, amethyst, rose quartz, Kali, Lilith, Hekate, Persephone

Cards: The High Priestess, Ace of Cups, Three of Swords, Mirror, Full Moon in Cancer

Welcome, pile two to your reading. You are scene as very mysterious. The public eye doesn't know what to make of you. Honestly, I can see the mystery in the cards but I am also struggling to tap into you. You are very guarded but very beautiful. If you have ever heard of the term kuudere, I think that would be pretty accurate to how to are perceived . If you are unfamiliar with the term it just means you seem very in control of you emotions. So much so that you might come off as cold to some people. You appear to be serene outwardly but on the inside I see you have many different emotions. The style you wear is similar to how your emotions are displayed. Serene and mysterious. I see you could wear spiritual clothing that is meant for spiritual protection. Overall, the public views as an extremely beautiful but private individual that is low-key spiritual.

You have a dark feminine energy to you. This can draw in those who are fascinated by mystery. You don't like to let people close to you though because of painful situations you have been in before. I see you have experienced many heartbreaks and have given many sacrifices to people who did not meet you with gratitude. You honestly didn't let this eat you up inside. You moved forward with confidence and led yourself towards loving yourself. You worked towards the relationship you had with yourself and you resolved a lot of pain that you carried with. Entirely because you were fed up with people breaking your heart. You decided you wanted the person closest to you to stop breaking it too. You.

Those who can even reach the idea of being close to you view you as much softer than the public. They still see you as pretty mysterious but they can see that you are very sweet and accommodating. They have seen you at your worst and watched you kick ass all the way through. They see you as the baddest bitch on the block. It is very rare for you to have people close to you but when there are you are very loyal. You like to invite them over for drinks and thats when you let your truest self shine. You are an absolute riot. You have the wittiest joke and the funniest comebacks even when you are intoxicated. You have allowed yourself to cry on a friends shoulder over drinks too. Alcohol really loosens that vice grip you have on your emotions. I see you really only let your best friend see these parts of you. This person views you as their favorite person on earth. They really truly believe you are an angel. They have supported you through a couple really hard break-ups. I think they will always be the closest one to your heart.

Song: Little Lies by Fleetwood Mac

Vibes: Grey-blue, gold, purple, white, stain glass windows, arctic foxes, wolves, yokai, beetles, sharks, snow, ice, winter, 111, 963, 100, red hair, feathers, black tourmaline, Ares, Hephaestus, Hestia

Cards: 6 of Pentacles, 5 of Pentacles, 3 of Pentacles, New Moon, Shark

Hi, pile three! You have an entirely different impression you often give than how you actually are. Those who see you would not be able to guess how you actually are. You give a very scary vibe off to people. Strangers are intimidated by your appearance. Which is such a shame because your energy is so warm and inviting. :( You are very tall and have a broad figure with wide shoulders. You tower over most people. If you aren't physically tall people still get that energy of intimidation from your energy. People scurry out of your way as you walk past and avoid looking you in the eyes. You also have very strong eye brows which might give you real bad RBF. Those who aren't scared off by you, hold a lot of envy for how much you command attention. I also see you have really long beautiful legs that people comment on all the time. They mostly seem like complements but they probably don't really feel like it. They want to be like you but they just don't understand how much it actually bothers you to be as big as you are. I'm so sorry to you about all the door frames you run into and all the beds you have grown out of. It's tough be a big person.

Despite all your physical appearances, you have a lovely soft feminine energy. It is so nice to be in it feels like the biggest, softest, warmest bear hug to ever exist. You are a wonderful host. I can smell something really good so you might be an excellent cook or baker. I see you love to give back to your community through this skill. Which makes those a bit closer see you as this protective loving parental energy. I see you baking cookies for your neighbors and maybe your church. I can feel how happy you make people feel the closer they get to you. You have such a soft heart with a rough outer exterior. It does throw some of your neighbors kids for a loop at first.

Finally, those who are closest to you see you as extremely generous and kind. They know the world thinks you have sharp claws but they know that they are mistaking paws for claws. They love being around you and working together to help being a safer community. They know you give to charity and work in a place that helps those in needs. They see you as the sweetest, nicest person they have ever met in their lives. They wouldn't trade you for anyone. They trust you with their lives. If they are in any danger or in need they call you first. I think maybe at some point you had someone slander your good name because of your appearances. All your closest community friends and family came to your defense and saved your reputation. They truly, deeply care for you and I think you feel the exact same.

Song: Cooler Than Me (Cover) by Ethan Fields

Vibes: Gold, black, teal, white flowers, maximalism, alternative fashion, lily pads, frogs, 333, 4646, leaves, vines, coral, mountains, low gravity, forests, fairies, pixies, unicorns, culture, tigers eye, Zues, Aphrodite, Eros

Hey there, pile four. Welcome to your reading! People outside of your circle see you are drop dead gorgeous. You make everyone question their sexuality or fall to their knees. Even your friends flirt with you constantly. You obviously flirt back just for funsies but thaaat can get you into some romantic fiascos that you never had any intention in getting into. Oops, lmao! I see strangers see you in two different lights. There are people who are stunned by your handsomeness. They are the ones turning their heads to get a second look. ;) Theeeeen there are the people who think you are doing way too much just because you like looking good. Thats dumb. Those people are dumb. Their opinions do not matter. That's because you are one of a kind! No one can match your style and brilliance. No one has the confidence to do what you do and make it look THAT good. AND THE BEST PAAART is that everyone knows it. Even if they are acting nasty about it. I see you like to wear lots of jewelry. Chains on chains on jewels on chains. You aren't addicted to glitter. Glitter is addicted to YOU!!! You love to do stuff with your hair too. I see you might have many wigs that you love to trade out. People are always convinced it's your real hair. Everyday you get more and more admirers. The public can not get enough of you.

Your energy is interesting. It is feminine but it presents in such a masculine way. You have this go getter vibe to you but then everything seems to come your way before you can even step towards it. It's like for a long time you had to fight for what you wanted but now people just hand you things you want before you can even ask. When people get closer to you, they just seem to give you things randomly. They will hook you up with their connections. Literally people are doing your networking for you. The way people see you gives you many opportunities in life. Don't worry about getting the opportunities yourself, baby. The universe loves to spoil you through your admirers.

The people closest to you see that you are a go with the flow kind of person. The universe pushes you somewhere and you just let it push you along like a leaf in the wind. Some of your closest friends think you are nuts but they know it always seems to work out for you anyway. Even if you don't make sense to them. They see you are a surviver and they know how ruthless you can be, babe. They see these as extremely admirable traits. The people closest to you feel like they have been around you since you were young so they like to mess with you like siblings would. It is pretty easy to get close to you though so they might not all be that way. They view you as loyal, kind, fun and unique. They wouldn't have you any other way.

[saliosis]

happy halloweeen!! here's my take on a "core refresh" pack (part 6)

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 + more under cut

frankie's fashion is very experimental. they like to explore themselves through what they wear since they're just learning things about the world. to symbolize their personality, they have a "quirky" style of fashion. mostly mismatched, mostly all over the place. there's not really a category for frankie's style... not that i can think of. they like to wear anything, honestly. dresses, suits, overalls, shirts, shorts, boots, heels. they're trying to figure out their style, so sometimes they'll incorporate some more colors. they like black and white, but they add teal in. yellow is another color added.

they don't wear real/natural silver because they've learned that this can harm their fellow monsters. any silver accessories they have is fake (painted grey, because that's a way to work around it)

they experiment with piercings

this was in my og design, but they have a huge patch over their left eye. it's plaid, so sometimes they try their best to match their outfits well enough for them to look aesthetically pleasing

likes patterns. stripes, plaid, etc. etc.

clawdeen's fashion is furry and bold. again, this is the fashionista of the school. she is the queen of fashion. again, she likes fur and animal print. whatever she chooses to wear is what usually sets the trends and expectations for those at monster high. she loves to explore herself though. i'd say her style evolves, but these are the main ideas of her fashion. she loves purple, but she also loves green. maybe has a french fashion inspiration? i don't really know how to label it. it's sort of mcbling, but also the style you'd expect of a very cunty aunt who likes shopping. she likes pants best, ngl. jeans are great. skirts are fine by her, she just loves pants.

i like the idea of clawdeen constantly changing up her style. yes, she can also wear something like her g3 outfits. much more coordinated. what i've displayed is the style that takes up most of her closet, tho

she wears glasses, but she has different pairs for each outfit

green is a color she loves so much but doesn't make use of it enough

the wolf family has a little emblem thing i've snuck onto each. it's a golden circle pendant with a small moon on the inside, two little bars holding up the design so it floats. it could also look like a money symbol... idk like coins. it's good luck. mostly for money manifesting and all. she runs with the gold and goes crazy. only gold, no bronze accessories. ever.

on days of the full moon, she will wear super loose clothing. the moon cycles could also impact her fashion choices.

draculaura's fashion is very iconic. a sort of gothy, classic, and romantic sort of look. i'd say she likes to take a spin on victorian styles and make them modern... while also mashing together those 2010s pink/black skull prints and tees that we all know and love. i really like the idea of her in a long dress that hits the floor. i would say she's romantic goth. she likes frills, long ball gowns, lace, and hats that can cover her from the sun whenever she has to travel outside in the daytime. lots of slip dresses if she wants to be more casual. elegance, but done cutely.

the silhouette of an outfit is what matters most to her when it comes to fashion

if she wears a skirt, she wears a big petticoat underneath. a very big petticoat

her parasol can be used interchangeably with a large hat. she always wants either or to match her outfit. and they are always kind of extra

her "victorian" style is a sort of nod to her immortality. she probably likes that fashion period best and likes to try and honor that

i like the idea of her experimenting with her hair. it was a g3 idea, kinda. but bangs, streaks, half and half, etc. i like to imagine draculaura being into the big goth hair

cleo's style is very similar to her g1 style. gold. blues. elegant, fresh, modern, and incredibly easy on the eyes. obviously, she loves to flaunt her designer clothing around school. and since she is so popular, it's expected for her to serve look after look. you will never ever see her look bad. every cleo portrayal i've seen never has enough mummy wrap. she needs it to survive and yet, she only has like, one or two bands on her arms. my cleo's fashion is all about wrap-themed clothing. she has lots of wraps. sometimes she comes up with ways to mix that or even show off her monster trait and heritage. she loves see-through, glittery material too, obviously paired on top of something. but it's glamourous. it's rich. it's sometimes a little 90s inspired, but mostly fresh.

this cleo loves pants. loose pants work, i suppose. but she likes them baggy. one of the best examples of what she likes to wear for pants would be those baggy pyramid-textued pants i designed for her once

gets custom made jewelry (braclets, earrings, etc) that spell out her name in hieroglyphics

likes shorter skirts, but secretly admires longer skirts ten times more

blue lover. any shade. try her. she will obviously mix around her makeup, nails, and hair to work around whatever blue she's feeling

loves gems. lots of gems. real ones, obviously.

doesn't like socks very much. she can literally just do the same thing socks do for feet with mummy wrap. same with stockings

[welcomingdisaster]

grandkids of Finwë + what kind of artwork they did as small kids:

Feanorians:

Maedhros: extremely proper drawings with green grass, blue sky, one yellow tree and one white tree. Elves with the right numbers of fingers and toes. Very particular about getting everyone's eye colors right.

Maglor: lots of swirls and bright globs of paint just because, big believer in making everything purple because he likes purple. Suffers Maedhros repeatedly 'correcting' his artwork to be the 'right' colors and shapes. As he gets older he becomes interested in telling a story and often draws comics/sequences. These are kind of rushed; he is more interested in conveying a point than the art itself.

Celegorm: loud scribbles of guys with extremely cool hunting bows wearing really bright outfits. Usually a minimum of two tigers/drawing.

Caranthir: prefers coloring in pictures to drawing his own. Likes subject matters he feels he is 'good' at; flowers, snakes, trees.

Curufin: very into designing and coming up with ideas even as a small child. Likes to both draw on and copy Feanor's work. As he gets older, big into costume design and jewelry diagrams.

Amras: animals animals animals animals. Bright and huge and labelled. Not particularly precise about giving everything the right number of eyes and feet.

Amrod: likes to write his name in Tengwar bubble letters. Also precise about using the 'right' colors. Often draws what he thinks his mom would approve of/praise rather than his own interests; a lot of clay sculptures, drawings of people.

Nolofinweans:

Fingon: his paper is full filled to the brim because he kept thinking of things he wanted to add to the drawing. "What are you working on?" "This is dad and two horses and a very big lizard and eight blooming flowers and half of a lion." Extremely enthusiastic about gifting his art to people. Wants to draw on himself.

Turgon: precise sharp drawings of buildings and carriages. Very advanced for his age in terms of recognizing aspects of architectural design; does not draw people at all until he's the elf equivalent of around 8. Often trades off with Fingon (by then quite a bit older) where he will draw buildings and carriages and then Fingon will add in the people and horses.

Aredhel: draws the bare minimum she might before going to play outside. Eventually gets into drawing buried treasure maps and floral sketches.

Arafinweans:

Finrod: perfectionistic as a child, to the point where he often starts over the same drawing 4x times. Likes to draw flowers, animals, eyes. Often mixed media, and fond of collages. Likes to trace and copy several times before trying things on his own.

Orodreth: draws extremely small in the corner of the page. Makes a lot of little animal and elf characters.

Angrod: Likes to cut and glue. Has Finrod cut out his drawings to make them into puppets and toys. Fond of sticking leaves and book-pages onto his art. Also big on drawing on himself.

Aegnor: really into shapes. He will draw people, animals, etc if he's in the mood but he's most fond of brightly colored triangles and circles. Likes to copy letters; really nice handwriting for his age.

Galadriel: Advanced, as she is with everything. Likes to draw elves out doing different activities; hunting, dancing, playing. Their faces are expressive and a little creepy. Also a fan of everything being the 'right' hue.

An Adventure from Another World | JJBA PART3 X FEM!READER

Prolonged

After a car accident, his body and consciousness are taken to the universe of his favorite anime, an event considered miraculous in the eyes of many.

The alarm sound starts ringing, the thin and frantic sound of a clock that comes automatically set on the device on the desk beside the bed. I try to force my heavy, sleepy eyes to open, but it’s a task quickly failed, so I stretch my hand like a snake and reach for my phone. "STOP" – the huge option appears on the screen. Even in my drowsiness, I manage to have a bit of awareness and click the option.

With supernatural force, I force my body to sit up on the bed, my feet feeling the completely cold floor. Time to get ready to catch the bus, I think, remembering the bus ride I have to take. "What a drag..." I whisper to myself. I get up toward the small bathroom in the room, turn the faucet to release the water, and splash it onto my puffy face. I quickly turn it off and open the compartment behind the mirror, grabbing my toothbrush and toothpaste. When I close it, I see my reflection. Dark circles around my eyes show the tiredness, the few white hairs from stress appear in my hair, even though I’m still too young to have them. Facing the sad reality of a humble, working-class person isn’t the best thing in the world. You know you deserve better than this.

I make circular motions all around my mouth, my teeth, gums, and tongue, spitting all the contents into the sink and quickly cleaning it as I rinse my mouth. After changing my clothes and putting on my shoes, my phone starts ringing again, alerting me that it's time to be at the bus stop. Damn! I need to be quick, I put my phone in my bag, sling it over my shoulder, and hurry out of the apartment. If the bus stop were closer, it would have made things so much easier! Even though it's early in the morning, the city is already filling up with people, which disrupts my path. Looking at my phone, I realize I'm extremely late. Oh no! No!! My eyes still fixed on my phone, I ignore everything around me, even the voices of people that seemed desperate. My body warms up, and my eyes begin to burn with a flash of light coming from my left side. The two shining orbs completely capture my attention, like a deer in the middle of the road, so bright and intense like the sound, getting closer and closer to me, which was strange. Wait... I'm crossing! My eyes widen like a doll's eyes, too late to do anything, the sensation of something hitting me in the waist and stomach strikes me hard.

Purple, pink, blue, green, yellow, white. These are all the colors that dominate my vision. Panic floods my body as I realize that instead of falling onto concrete ground, I am falling into a completely colorful and bizarre abyss, as if it were a galaxy full of shining stars. As I look at my body, I notice that strangely, I seem to be turning 2D? Lines from a drawing outline my body! A scream escapes my mouth as I desperately look at my hand, like in a cartoon, not children's drawings, but in the style of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure! When I look up, I get startled by the bright light in front of me. As my eyes adjust to the brightness, I start seeing things more clearly — a sink, that's what I'm looking at, and my hands are gripping it to maintain my balance. How strange... I think, furrowing my brow. I begin to look forward slowly, fear and hesitation accompanying me in this moment. When I gaze into the mirror, I see an image of myself, but not my normal image. It's a version of me from the JoJo universe, right in front of me. "YOU ARE BETTER THAN THIS" each word written across the mirror.

･:*:･ﾟ★｡･:*:･

"Okay... I got run over by a car and for some miraculous reason, the gods decided to be nice to me and let me live in this damn anime. Ugh..." I say to myself, my hand runs across my face until it reaches my hair, squeezing and lightly pulling it. "The good part is that it's my favorite anime, the bad part is that it's JoJo! How am I supposed to participate if I don't have a Stand?! It would make more sense to let me die than to live as a background character." I stomp my foot on the ground like a spoiled child, until I notice a note lying on the floor. Curious, I pick up the paper to read its contents.

"Cigano Deck Card 36

THE CROSS

The card of The Cross symbolizes sacrifice and the struggle necessary to overcome difficulties. However, this card also carries a message of spiritual growth and redemption, showing that suffering can be a tool for achieving transformation."

So I have a Stand represented by the Cigano deck, and we're in the third part of JoJo, where Stands are tarot cards. A sly smile escapes in the middle of my thoughts, the idea of not being a background character making my whole body stir. "Well then, show yourself! I need to figure some things out about you!" I say aloud in an attempt to manifest it, a foolish action that incredibly works. Right in front of me, I see the figure of a large, muscular female body, a cross design covering her entire chest in a beige tone, while the body is covered with ancient runes in golden color. Pieces of fabric that cover parts of her body are dark, contrasting with the light beige and golden colors of my Stand. Her eyes are human-like, and her hair is loose, floating in the wind. If you look closely, there's a faint light around her that makes her look majestic.

"Shit, now the snake's gonna smoke."

Just a couple KIU questions if ya don't mind:

Is Pit's laurel a full circle? It looks like it in like concepts arts but I've seen it drawn either way. I think you could look at Chapter 21 at the ends, his laurel is laying on the ground but if i remember correctly in the game its kind of hard to tell.

I've heard on a few different occasions that Pit's wings are fluffier then Dark Pit's but is this true with the actual game model? I can't tell.

and last, can you see any sort of pattern as to why sometimes Pit's Power of Flight has blue sparkles, and why sometimes its orange?

Heya, thanks for the ask!

Pit's laurel crown isn't a complete circle, it's open at the front. You mentioned chapter 21 so I pulled up the model from the cutscene in question. I think that is the only place we see it off of him. Ignore the lack of textures, Ohana never likes to render Pit correctly, but you can see the crown's shape by itself.

~~~~~

For Pit and Dark Pit's models, they're exactly the same in Uprising. Besides their eyes and obviously their colors, even their textures are the same too.

You can't tell who's who here.

But here's a look at their textured models. Normally the space between their feathers is transparent, which is why they look a little odd here.

Now I got curious and checked out their Smash Bros Ultimate models. Those models are slightly different! Though something that is consistent between both of them are their wings.

They have very slight differences here and there. (Also again ignore the weird rendering, the models had a lot of different face meshes and I couldn't find the eye mesh) But as you can see their wings are identical.

~~~~~

The power of flight is interesting. It has a number of colors it'll go through. When Palutena grants the PoF it's blue, Viridi's is green, Pandora's powers glow purple (when DP used them at least), and then the Wings of Pegasus glow pink.

Now what I think is kinda funny is that the PoF glows yellow when Pit is flying slower. It'll also glow red when he stops. It's got indicators!

(Screenshots grabbed from Floor Ice Cream's videos)

Thanks again for the ask! Always happy to ramble about this game and mess with the models, haha.

I think I’ve finally stopped cringing enough to share some of the stuff I worked on for my short film, “Heirloom” and this is the colour script!! :D

The colours carry a lot of the emotional weight in the film, pulling you through each stage of the story and making you feel every shift the characters experience!! This was especially crucial since there's no dialogue or narration to lean on... So let me yapp a bit about that—

The first act features vibrant yellows, greens, and oranges—warm, lively tones that signify peace and stability. This palette establishes a sense of calm and familiarity, but as the act progresses, darker hues begin to infiltrate the scene.

In the latter part of the first act, the colour scheme shifts dramatically to dark, gritty reds and oranges. This transition introduces this tangible intensity, this foreboding feeling, highlighting a surge of anger and tension. The dominance of these reds signals a significant change in the narrative.

The second act dives into violets and purples, evoking a sense of novelty and uncertainty. These colours effectively illustrate the protagonist’s struggle to find his footing in a world that has moved on without him.

The third act is divided into two parts! Initially, deep blues dominate as the protagonist returns to a home that's long gone. These dark, sombre tones represent profound sadness and loss.

The final part of the film transitions back to these bright, saturated yellows, concluding on a very hopeful note. This return to vibrant colours signifies a resolution and a full-circle moment, reflecting the protagonist's journey and his redemption :)

if you have 7 mins to spare to watch my short film, look under the cut!!

(BEWARE!!! I was on a tight deadline for this, the audio is SHIT)

Shireen, Missandei, and the dragon Sunrise!

[Image Description: Full-length drawing of two people, facing each other, standing in profile. They are Shireen Baratheon and Missandei of Naath. A dragon, Sunrise, rests on Missandei’s cupped palms. Both girls are smiling, and Shireen is clearly excited. They are standing in a blank white void.

Shireen wears a floor-length gown. The bodice and skirt are dark green. Her sleeves are a lighter green. At the collar and hem, the dress is closer to dark blue. She wears a yellow belt at her waist, the tail of which hangs over the front of her dress. Her sleeve cuffs are attached to her middle fingers, and she has a standing white frill/collar around her neck. Her hair is in braided buns on the sides of her head over her ears, with the inner circle of hair held in a hairnet of gold with blue stones. She also wears a gold circlet with a blue stone, as well as a matching brooch or pendant at her throat. Her arms are bent and her hands are at shoulder height. She is taller than Missandei and so bends forward to look at the dragon.

Missandei wears a floor-length red gown, with an ombré to black at the hem. Over it, she wears a hooded cloak with large sleeve pockets. The cloak is blue, with black lining and patterns in black on the collar, hood, and sleeve pockets that are reminiscent of those on a butterfly’s wings. Her hair is in long braids, which are tied in a bun at the nape of her neck. A single gold ornament can be seen in her hair, a hair cuff. A small portion of an earring can be seen through her braids. She wears dark green gloves. She grins, looking up at Shireen, and holds Sunrise in her hands at about shoulder height.

Sunrise is a dragon about the size of a house cat. He sits perched in Missandei’s hands, the claws on his feet gripping her fingers. His long tail trails down into the space between her hands and her body. His mouth is open and he looks at Shireen. He appears to be happy. His scales are pink, purple, and orange, and his horns and crest are dark blue. His tail ends with seven spikes. His wings are folded up. /End ID.]

Cop Cutie | Harvey x Reader

After a little accident at the Spirit's Eve Festival, Doctor Harvey helps the Farmer recover from an injury.

Spirit’s Eve was not your favorite holiday.

It arrived at the crux of the harvest season– there were pumpkins to be picked, wine to age, hay to gather, and a seemingly endless amount of chores to get done before the snow hit come winter.

And yet, you found yourself dressing up to attend the very festival you swore you wouldn’t have time for.

The dressing up part was new– Lewis had insisted upon it, calling it an ‘opportunity for camaraderie’ between the townsfolk.

After rummaging through your closet, you decided to wear a blue hat, yellow and green shirt, red pants, and purple boots. Bam– you were a prismatic shard.

If nothing else, at least it would make a few people laugh. 

After checking on your chickens one last time, you left the farm, squinting to see in the dark. 

The town square was completely transformed for the festival: Gus had set out several tables absolutely heaping with food, Marlon had some sort of live skeleton exhibit, and Pierre had set up shop by the entrance of the maze, as always. 

“Hiya, farmer!” Marnie said, waving at you. 

“Hi, Marnie! Hi, Jas!” You smiled at both of them. Marnie was dressed in a feathered shirt, and she had painted a beak on her face. Jas was dressed exactly like Penny. 

“Oh! Are you Miss Penny!” You asked. 

“Mhm! And that means I’m a grown up! And that means that I can go in the maze!” Jas chirped, puffing out her chest. 

“No, Jas. You’re too young.” Marnie chided. “Come on, let’s go get some pumpkin pie.”

“Wait, I’ll take her.” You offered. “We won’t go far, I’ll keep her safe.”

“Oh, are you sure? Jas can be quite a handful…”

“Aw, I can handle her! C’mon, Jas,” You held out your hand, “Let’s go take on that maze!”

Jas took your hand and immediately pulled you into the maze. 

“Okay, okay, I’m coming!” You laughed as she tugged you along.

“Woooooow, the maze is so cool!” Jas gawked. 

“Slow down, Jas. There are a few obstacles—look, that gravestone almost blends into the shadow!” You tried to keep your balance as Jas tugged you faster through the maze, her enthusiasm contagious. Your foot caught on something solid. “Wait, Jas, watch ou—” A sudden jolt, and you found yourself tumbling forward, the fake gravestone scraping your leg as you hit the ground.

“Oh no!” Jas crouched at your side. “Are you okay?”

“I think so…” You sat up, rubbing the back of your head. “My ankle…” A throbbing pain shot up your leg. 

“I’ll… I’ll go get doctor Harvey!” Jas sprinted away.

“Wait, Jas, don’t go by yourself— oh, sweet Yoba…” You sighed, leaning against the hedge wall. 

Jas soon returned, a police officer behind her. “I’m baaack!” 

You were confused– Pelican Town had no police force. “I’m sorry, sir, there must have been a mistake…”

“Um, actually… It’s me.” Harvey said sheepishly, removing his hat. “Borrowed the costume from Pierre, heh. Pretty convincing, right?”

“I didn’t even recognize you!” You tried to sit up. 

“Easy, now. Go slow.” Harvey sat next to you. “Jas said you tripped?”

“Yeah…” You laughed awkwardly, gesturing to the fake gravestone. “I think I did something to my ankle.”

“Let me take a look.” He shimmied over to your ankle. “Mind if I touch you?”

“By all means, go ahead.” 

He gently palpated your ankle. “Does that hurt?”

You winced. “A little.”

“Can you try and rotate it for me?”

Though it was painful, you managed to rotate your ankle in a full circle.

“Thank you.” He turned to look at you. “Good news– It doesn’t seem broken, just a bad sprain.”

You sighed, leaning back onto the hedges. This would certainly slow down your harvest on the farm. 

“I can take you to the clinic and wrap it for you, if you like.” Harvey offered.

“Oh, um, sure.” You snapped back into reality. “Oh, Jas, are you okay?” 

Jas’s eyes were filled with tears. “I’m so sorry you got hurt! I’ll never go into the maze again, never, never, never!”

“It was an accident.” You said. “It’s okay, really.”

“You don’t have to stay out of the maze forever,” Harvey said, helping you to your feet, “But it is important to be very careful and aware of our surroundings.”

Jas nodded rapidly. 

“Go back to Marnie, now.” Harvey said, leaning your weight on him. “I’m sure she’s wondering where you are.” 

Jas turned back towards the entrance to the maze, slowly making her way back to her aunt.

“Okay, let’s try to walk. Let me know if there’s any pain.” Harvey said, slowly moving forward.

You became acutely aware of where Harvey's hands gently held your waist, his fingers firm but careful. A flutter of nervousness bloomed in your chest—strong, yet soft, and he held your weight like it was nothing. You glanced up at him, catching the faintest smile tugging at the corners of his mouth, and you quickly looked away, hoping he couldn’t feel the heat rising in your cheeks. Why was this making you so flustered?

“So… forgive me if this is rude, but… what’s your costume?”

“Oh, I’m… I’m a Prismatic Shard.” You said, a slight laugh in your voice. “I didn’t really have any other ideas.”

He brushed a stray curl out of his face, glancing at you nervously. “I’m definitely taller than Pierre…” he said with a sheepish smile, gesturing at the too-short hemline and his exposed ankles. 

“I think you look great, Harvey.” 

Harvey cleared his throat. “Um… Okay, here we are. That’s the hard part done.” He sighed as you exited the maze. “There are stairs, would you mind if I…” He cleared his throat. “Is it okay if I carry you down the stairs? Because of your ankle, I mean.”

A sudden heat rushed to your face, and you prayed the dim light hid the color spreading up your neck. “I, uh… yeah, sure,” you mumbled, trying to ignore the way your heart raced in your chest.

He lifted you onto his back, and the two of you quickly descended the stairs and entered the clinic. 

“Here we are.” He lowered you onto an exam table before retrieving a roll of athletic tape from a drawer. “Can I see your ankle?”

You swung your legs up onto the exam table. 

He quickly wrapped your injured ankle, and the pain quickly subsided. 

“It feels much better. Thank you, doctor.” You said, smiling.

“Of course, Farmer. I’m always happy to help you.”

“I guess I’m in here a lot, huh…” you said, laughing slightly.

“I believe your trips to the mines have single-handedly depleted my stock of saline and bandages for the month… I put in an order for more yesterday.” He said.

“I’m sorry you have to deal with me so much… I’ll try to be more careful.”

“No, no… I mean, yes, I do want you  to be more careful, but I don’t mind treating you. You’re my friend, this is the least I can do for you.”

You smiled. “Thanks, Harvey.”

“Now,” he said, standing, “Do you plan to stay at the festival much longer? Gus has some spiced apple cider that I think you’d love.”

“Well, I was planning to go home… but cider sounds good.” You stood, taking his offered hand.

Arm and arm, the Police officer and the Prismatic Shard returned to the festival, both a little happier and both unsure why.

know the difference! One is copyrighted. the rest of infinity are public domain. Ladd Ehlinger, notoriously racist conservative, changed the character's name to "A Sphere" to match the narrator.

[ID: A two panel meme. the first panel is labeled, "A Sphere", with the A underlined for emphasis. Below this is a screenshot from the 2007 Flatland film by Ladd Ehlinger, showing A Sphere, who is a shiny metallic yellow sphere with bulging red eyes with unequal pupils, and two very skinny arms. His mouth is not visible while it is closed. Text below reads, "Design owned and name used by infamously racist conservative Ladd Ehlinger. He changed the Sphere's name to A. Sphere to match the narrator's pseudonym. Ladd Ehlinger made the Sphere into A Spheere, a creepy rich asshole. Because Ladd Ehlinger is the exact sort of person the narrator was meant to represent, and he can't very well criticize his own racism, misogyny, classism, and more, now can he?" The other side of the grid is titled, "The Sphere", with the word "the" underlined for emphasis. The text continues, "Public domain characters + designs. The real Sphere is kind, patient, respectful to women, and believes in equality for all. This character and these designs are Public Domain. Free for anyone to use for anything. The designs go on literally forever, the Sphere can look like anything." There are ten designs shown for the sphere: the first is orange with a yellow, white and black spot on his back and yellow eyes. The second is a solid blue sphere with dramatic lighting. The third is covered in a pattern like stained glass in dark purples, golds, and blues. The fourth is solid pale green, with yellow eyes, looking down toe the side and saying, "bro, what the fuck." The fifth is dark red-brown, with three yellow eyes, grinning at something offscreen. The sixth is from an illustration from Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions, showing the sphere in the center of Flatland with a dotted line inside him, labeled, "The Sphere with his section at full size". The seventh is similar, but with two grey circles inside showing the 3D effect. The eighth is pale pink with lighting and shadows, leaning back with a relaxed epression with arms crossed. The ninth is light red, with blue and red circles and diamons, with a single eye. The tenth and last is dark grey with an orange outline, wearing a dark purple tophat and monacle, winking at the camera, labeled, "totally not Arsene Lupin". End ID.]

[Dandy Universe AU] Rainbow Diamond (Dandy)

Full Name: Rainbow Diamond Also Known As: "RD", "Rainbow", "Sunlight" (By Blue Moon Diamond) Gem Type: Diamond Gem Location: Forehead Size/Height: As tall as White Diamond Weapon: N/A

Powers

- Standard Gem Abilities (Bubbling, shapeshifting, fusion, regeneration, agelessness, etc)

- Chlorokinesis (Plant Manipulation)

- Spectral Mimicry

- Can heal gems and plants

Rainbow Diamond is the “supreme” diamond, ruling over all the others and the entirety of Gardenworld, making sure his gems were safe, happy, and doing their jobs properly. He ruled not with an iron fist, but a gentle hand, as he considered every gem, from diamonds to pebbles, his friends. Yet...this harmony was broken after coming into contact with the mysterious black substance known as “Dark Matter” that came from a crashed meteor. His initial rampage under its effects was stopped by the other diamonds after they sealed him away in his own palace.

He regained some free will after his corruption, but is fighting a war against it, trying his hardest not to let it overtake him completely, with only the other diamonds and his pet Pebble to comfort and help him as the citizens try to find a cure for him and all other gems affected by Dark Matter. His ability to heal was stripped from him after he became infected.

Rainbow Diamond is represented by the shape of a flower with six petals, with the middle circle being white, while the petals are, in clockwise order: Red, orange, yellow ,green, blue, and purple. As seen in his palace and his gems.

All the gems in Gardenworld are considered part of his “court”, but Pebble and the holiday Toon gems are the only ones that are specifically his.

What happened when you wish on a star?

In the kingdom of Roses, everyone knows wishes do come true, thanks to their beloved King Magnifico, granting all their wishes overnight while they sleep. Everyone trusts in that, except Asha, an artistic and quick-witted young girl, for she knows in her heart that her deceased grandfather never got his wish granted. On her 18th birthday, when it was time to give her wish, Asha discovers a terrible secret, the king and queen are not what they seemed. With no one else to turn to, she makes a wish upon a star... And the star answered.

*⁠.⁠✧

This is the cover I made for my friend @annymation fanfic "The Kingdom of Wishes", which you can read both on Ao3 and right here on Tumblr!

All necessary links for readings will be attached to this post.

*⁠.⁠✧

Now let's talk about the cover itself.

At the bottom we have Asha on top of a tree, with Valentino. She's catching up to Aster, right above her. These 3 elements the tree, Asha and Valentino are illuminated by the light that comes from Aster, a yellow light and are shaded by purplish blue shadows precisely because yellow and blue/purple are complementary colors divided on the color wheel and this is a characteristic of my art I like to make colored shadows and not black ones.

Aster has a thick outline and no shadows because he is in 2d, while the rest of the universe is in 3d.

This pose was inspired by one of the promotional posters for the Wish film.

I followed the same colors as the sky and wanted to place the wish balls and star sparkles making a circle around Asha.

I tried to leave Asha and Aster more to the left because the protagonists, in film posters, should always be more to the left.

Magnificent and Amaya are appearing in the sky, in the background, precisely to represent this subtle threat, but always existing throughout Anny's story. Magnificent and Amaya may not always be present in the same place as Aster, Asha and Valentino, but they are always watching, aiming and wishing for the star.

Unlike the film, Anny makes it clear that these two are the villains of the story and to rescue this I wanted to bring triangular shapes to their faces precisely because a triangle represents a warning of danger, sharp pointy things that can kill you and do you a lot of harm — this is even the case. a form often used in classic Disney villains. I also rescued the use of the color green for the villains, well seen in all Disney films; That's why both the light that illuminates them and the shadows are green, one lighter and the other darker.

*⁠.⁠✧

Making this cover was a lot of fun, it was a great experience that taught me a lot of things!

If you think it's beautiful, I invite you to follow me because I'm preparing several other illustrations for this same fanfic and they will all be posted here, with the same explanation of what they mean and my creative process.

I'm loving being part of this project and thank you so much for reading this far!

Kisses full of light and stars!

Pt. 2 of my Dead Boy Detective covers inspired by teen detective novels. More info and reference photos under the cut

I’ve continued watching this series on repeat while creating the novel covers. I really didn’t think I would get through all the episodes, I often stop projects part way through. I might do another post of the covers in chronological series order, as opposed to the order I drew them in.

Style, colors, and very often the actual poses are pulled from covers featuring The Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and The Three Investigators.

I don’t know if you can tell, but I struggle pulling the concentration to add details to make forests look realistic. Something about trees takes more energy than I normally have, haha.

I don’t really have a lot more to add, but thanks for all the love on the first collection, it’s been very fun.

Also, happy pride month 🌈🌈🌈
