i feel like we kinda miss the whole. catalyst for fiona and lips relationship exploding.
here's your older sister, and here's the only person you've ever been able to trust. she tells you to get out again and again and again, even though you're so afraid that the moment you turn around everything is going to fall apart. getting out, and then getting the rest of them out, is your job. that's what your supposed to do.
neither of you have been able to trust your parents and all you have is each other, and she's telling you to get out. and it's either doom everyone around you by staying, or trust her and leave.
and then, right as you're finally starting to find the rhythm of a world you've beed denied access to your whole life, it's because of her, the only person you've ever been able to trust in you entire existence, because of you leaving and trusting, that your five year old brother almost dies. he's comatose. he's covered in tubes. he might never be the same again. the only person you've ever trusted has done the exact same thing your parents did. Put drugs and alcohol and letting loose above the kids their supposed to take care of.
Is it any wonder Lip stops trusting her. That Lip takes the longest to forgive her. "it wasn't her coke she didn't leave it out" she got high around a toddler and left him near the cocaine. left the cocaine where he could get it. the two other adults picked him up and danced with him with coke on the table. Lip walks in on this after spending an entire day trying to rescue their other brother. His little sister is the one who finds their baby brother.
even discounting that in response to this he has to suddenly start stealing food or else all the kids in the house will starve, or that Fiona suddenly jackrabbits into another person he has to care for instead of someone he can trust, or that he now has to care for a 4 year old, while working a job, and being a full time college student on work study, discounting all of that of course Lip looses faith in his sister. Of course he does.

You've Got It Twisted
Velvette has been so fucking hard to figure out because her og design is just kind of a human person with red eyes and a lot of her symbols and motifs are the same as Val.
for my design, i decided to make her Frankenstien-y because in life she was always contorting and changing her appearance and personality to be what people want. so it's like she's a stitched-together amalgamation of all the different personas she's had over the years.

I personally blame @v-albion for this, but when I asked "hey if sprout is edward, what does this make of a poptart alphonse? would his body just be stuck in the prison dimension? what would his soul be bound to" I did NOT expect v's answer to be "lmao what if his soul was bound to an empty hollow krang mech suit"

best thing about doctor who is that it is unpoisoned by the irony that most long-running media gets cannibalized by. it is invincible because it is so silly and so full of love and it takes each premise with the exact amount of seriousness it deserves. the closest you get ever is that some of bill’s lines are verbatim little teasing nitpicks of the show that the fandom bandied about, but they don’t come off as mocking the premise, they come off as loving the premise and how silly it is. why’s his time machine anagram work in english? it just does. his name is doctor who.

Did y'all know I have a pair of absolutely ancient jeans that I use as an embroidery canvas.
No, you didn't, because turns out I've apparently never shared my Layton or Encanto patches on here I guess??
Well, I made a Welcome Home patch on them!! My buddy was kind enough to help me take some pics wearing it while I was in town today.
What symbols for which characters under the hood :)
Wally: apple, eye, his lil face!
Barnaby: his pawprint and his hat
Julie: pink and purple flowers
Frank: their tie, butterflies (plus hearts)
Eddie: a multicoloured letter (plus hearts)
Howdy: a caterpillar
Poppy: the little wings she draws next to her signature, and a cupcake
Sally: Stars!
Having more things dedicated to a specific character doesn't have any significance, it just means I had more ideas for them or they fit nicest to fill in a space haha
