Meet Nox and Mausoleum, my Xatts that I made for Petz4! Xatts are a species by @chocodile (you can find the species sheet here: [link]) There's some non-petz arts of them too:

There's more pics and stuff about them but this post is already kinda long so I'll put it under a read more, heh

Some time ago, I was trying to come up with cool unusual stuff to make in Petz and I had a brilliant (terrible) idea of making a creature with a mouth that's elsewhere other than the head, like a tail-mouth. So I remembered the Xatts and thought it would be so cool, so I attempted it... but I quickly realized that this just wouldn't work, or at least was wayyy beyond my ability (and my patience) to figure out... because it was looking very very cursed and animated very poorly in-game lol.

But! I was too committed to the idea at this point so I just made them anyway, but with a normal head instead. They're just a bit more boring than my original idea since their tail-mouth is static :/ I've been wanting to make a Xatt for myself since I first saw them but I didn't have any good ideas until now, heh. I intended to make just one but I couldn't decide on the palette so it became two little guys! Nox is supposed to be full common (but maybe his spots make him piebald) but Mausoleum has uncommon bulbs. Her hair was supposed to be like a styled mane, so I'm hoping that counts for the common manes!

Here's some gifs so you can see them in motion!

And there's a lot more pics in their pages on my site: [Mausoleum] [Nox]

Bonus: a Xatt meets a Zott!

I have a question though. What are they actually supposed to sound like? Because currently... they bark lol

#petz #petz 4 #petz hexing #xatt #It's just sad that their tailmouths are so static...#maybe one day I'll revisit my original idea if I learn anything new!#I wish they'd pick up things with the big mouth and stuff #...actually if I made the tail side their front side this would probably work #adjusting the legs is probably easier than moving the entire head #...why didn't I think of this before wow #maybe I'll make a xatt v2 like that sometime

the difference in Percy's water healing power in the show vs the movie is actually kind of interesting because while subtle, in the show the water heals his injury and then his blood is washed away, but in the movie you can actually see the water push Percy's blood back inside his body as its healing him... and I cannot believe I'm saying this but I think I like the movie's depiction of this power more because of that???

#also I think the effect in the movie is more obvious than in the show #which I kinda like too #honestly I didn't even realize what the movie had done before I saw what the show did instead #but it makes just SO MUCH SENSE from a healing standpoint to push the blood back inside????#so he's not dealing with the effects of blood loss???#its very interesting!!#it would also makes sense why every time percy gets injured the moment he's in water he's like:#/WOW! I have a major rush of energy!!!/#like yeah not only is your injury healed but your life force was literally pushed back inside of you!!#I bet that feels pretty revitalizing!!#pjo #pjo adaptation #percy jackson #mine #pjo show crit

One year ago I made this lil comic about being aromantic, based on the lyrics of Eaten By The Monster Of Love! I meant to post it on the anniversary of me making it but I missed the day, oops... so today felt like a fitting alternative :3

Happy Valentine's Day!! Whether you were eaten by the monster of love or not, I hope you have a fun day today!

#i am very attached to this drawing because it was the first digital thing i drew in a long time #(and whatever i made before this was just aimless doodles at best anyway) so when i finished this and was actually happy with it #it was such a momentous occasion. like looking at it and thinking wow i actually like this a lot #so without it i don't think i really would have picked up digital drawing. definitely made me feel much more secure in my artsing abilities #and i made it with the intent of submitting it to this one publication / zine that i just miraculously learned about #so that's why it's important that i liked it enough to want to show it to anyone #the theme was to do something that combines the themes of queerness and horror / monsters etc #and another limitation was to use only these two exact colors that you see here. also i drew all of this with mouse only #because i didn't have my drawing tablet on that day (not that i even used it much before this) and was running out of time to submit it lol #so yeah thinking about monsters and how i could mix that with being aspec is how the idea was born #i still remember the thrill of coming up with this and thinking YES i could make this... theoretically... screw it i will really try.!!!#so yep my submission was accepted. even without that i still liked it but when i learned about this it was such a WHAT!!!!??? moment #someone out there saw my drawing and liked it enough to have it printed next to the works of all these other artists...#and now more people are going to see it too. and that is so wonderful. huge moment all in all one of the best defining moments of last year #my art #sparks #sparks band #ray the cat #(her look has changed a bit since heh)

Front facing Wizard Celebi 💪

Went through the teen plushie liker plight of being made fun of for an impulse buy two seconds after and hating this guy for a while because of that but I've come around because look at that face. Look at that cloak and leaf hat. I'd let them curse my bloodline

oh this is fucking adorable. i didn't know a Wizard Celebi aesthetic even existed, unless this is unofficial—the only thing i remember was the thing they did for halloween one time. i like this. this is good. here have some nose ratings about it:

dunno about wimpod. i feel like they're just scared. typically this is not a very Good emotion to have. i think it's in the name. Wimp od

#not pkmn #nose ratings #celebi in general is a pokémon i hold a lot of love for because i always seemed to encounter it as a kid #pokémon 4ever. i think i've talked about before how i used to like. fall asleep to that movie every night. and so i have the whole #fuckin script memorized. but then also at one point i ended up getting a celebi mystery gift from fuckin. gamestop. on pokémon diamond #which was the first event i had ever like. gone to? and i remember getting it and then trynna use it but it kept like. disobeying me #because the OT wasn't me and it was level 100. and i'd only beaten like. 2 gyms #but i thought it hated me and that's why it wouldn't listen to me. so i kept using it in battle and always had it at the front of my party #so that it would like me because i just had no idea you needed to beat the gyms to make it listen to you #and i didn't even know where to go. for the gyms. i was not very good at the game. so i just never got it to “like” me #and i ended up brushing it off as “wow‚ mythical pokémon are really high-maintenance!”

Coding woes (Patreon)

#Doodles #Original #Ukadevlog #Bug testing sure is something lol #These are both problems I've figured out now luckily! And I did them on my own! :D Extra pleased with myself :3 #My slightly cocky attitude of ''Well that was frustrating - luckily I'll never run into another problem again'' amuses me lol #'Cause in the moment everything's flying! The code comes together lovely and it's all great! And then I come up to the next thing #Something I haven't done before - something that there's no Direct how-to of how to do a thing #Like setting player-and-character pronouns! I didn't know how to do that! But I figured it out!! :0 What a rush haha #It really did take me an evening of knocking my head against the wall in attempts - I waaaayyy overcomplicated it to start haha #I was like - trying to set up a system that would call on specific pronoun sets individually based on player input #Ridiculous - so much easier to just slap some values into an envelope and have those tied to a specific shell lol #But that took all night! I got sleepy while working on it and even my drowsy brain was like Wait...what am I supposed to check against? Haha #Such a weird experience subconsciously as well :0 'Cause I had normal dreams that night #Maybe some slight code-adjacent dreams of A Screen With Text On It but that could be anything :P #Most of it was just normal dream melodrama - but in the few times I woke up to readjust or roll over or pull my blanket #It was juuuuust enough for my ''conscious'' brain to kick in and think about what to compare against - what structure would work #And so by the time I woke up proper I had to frantically write down a bunch of code in a spare word document so I wouldn't go stir crazy lol #Breakfast must wait! Dailies must wait! I Have to write this down!!#And when I implemented it - it worked exactly as I hoped it would and is much much Muuuuuch simpler to call upon haha #Wow! That was a weird fluke that definitely won't happen again! Haha #I don't actually believe that I just have no way of guessing which aspect will trip me up - This Should Be Easy! And then it isn't lol #Definitely didn't predict the second - Especially because other than a small roadbump of not knowing how to Shell-Switch (ty again Cherry ♥)#Everything up to then was going well and everything after that was going fine! Until The One Thing happened pffbtl #I wanted to assign a value to check if a specific piece of code was being called upon - basically a fork between two outcomes #That went fine! The value Was changing! But only the first fork was being called???#No lol I just didn't put the second = ugh pft - and what's more frustrating is that I'd been using == up to that point!! I'd been warned!!!!#I - for some reason - was convinced that using && would make the value check Only need to check If x = 1... That's not how it works......#It's an If statement! If x = 1 then why do I have to check IF x == 1! Just check!!! Hwagh rules and whatnot lol #Like I said it's all fixed now but sheesh! What a silly mistake! I knew better!! And now I double know better haha

Hang on thought about pastry arts school again

#like. why and HOW did i go through 2 full years of college and not graduate with an associates #how did they get away with stringing me along for 1.5+ years as a pastry arts major with no pastry chef #the one pastry class i did have when i met the pastry chef before he quit. it was like. taunting #bc it wasnt extremely new info to me it was baking 101. but the chef was such an amazing teacher #and i was so excited to learn from him #and i cant blame him at all for quitting like bro i wouldn't wanna work there either !!!!#they couldn't hire another pastry chef for almost 2 years bc NO ONE WANTED TO WORK FOR THE PROGRAM HEAD #i know of 2 separate stories where one chef in the area wanted to get into teaching and then heard who the boss chef was and said oh nvm 😬#and one chef who got hired and then quit before he could start bc he couldn't stand to work with that man #like i Know the food service industry is tough and intense and chefs have a reputation for being jerks #i Know that. and multiple people warned me of that before i started. and sometimes im like wow i was wrong i couldn't actually handle it #everyone told me i couldn't handle it and i said yes i could and then i couldn't #but is that really what happened???? bc there were other jerk chefs in that school!! and still no one could stand that ONE MAN!!!!!#we literally complained to the president of the college. and she said uwu hes doing his best 🥺#bc thats the thing with him. you think hes nice until you're in the kitchen with him. he IS nice until youre in the kitchen with him #i truly think he designed the course in order to weed out the weak ones #and ig it worked bc so many people dropped out !!!!! but like . sir. i started that program at 17 years old #a fully prepared 17 year old. a smart 17 year old. a talented 17 year old. an eager and excited 17 year old. but a 17 year old #we were learning how to COOK not DISARM BOMBS. i hope hes glad that my 17-19 year old self got weeded out for being weak.#congratulations man you broke me.#literally he gave me the worst panic attack of my life on the first day and was so mean to me bc of my anxiety and how shy i was #to the point that i finally admitted i needed to go to the doctor #and then when i started some meds. and also was OUT OF HIS CLASS. and in the pastry class. and was a little more comfortable #he wanted to take credit for 'bringing me out of my shell' 😐 and i wish i had said what i was thinking. and looked him in the eye #and said thanks its cause of the drugs.#not only were the internship hours insane but also the class hours and the graduating test #i get that the classes have to be longer bc we need time for things to cook but . 8/9 hours ??? dudeeee #obviously i didn't get to the graduating test class thing but the way he described it sounded like torture 😭#and ofc you cant find that info online before you enroll. and they only offered it in summer #so if you finished in fall you still had to wait through spring to technically graduate. assuming you pass the week long torture test

after the deed has been done.

#i love dropping the most random but also most important linagram lore like this with no explanation #wow kei is sure better at covering up his brother's crime than his own- *gets shot*#again i think i've said this before but miki's victim is very obvious i don't think it should even be revealed atp 😭#but i am thinking about how i can actually reveal the guards' murders in-universe #and hinode is just a loser he didn't even kill anyone properly /j (but he's one of the reasons why riku wants to end it all so..)#🗡️guard 001: sanada eiji 🗡️#🌼guard 002: andou miki 🌼#🍓prisoner 005: sanada kei 🍓#also i hate drawing hands.

wow twitter sucks 😭

#never used twitter before like 5 months ago #and even then I didn't use it actively until just recently like the past month #where I'm crossposting stuff on here and commenting on (mostly just 1 lol 😭) artist's work and stuff #and it is such a slow creeping awfulness I didn't even expect it until it was suddenly overwhelming!!!!#there is so much discourse!! wow!!!!! what the hell!!!!!!!#there's so much vague posting and quiet drama going on and I don't like it!!!!#why can't we just have fun and hang out 😭#why do specific gender and interelationship headcanons matter THIS MUCH #on tumblr it's fine I can just block antis and that's all the drama basically done with and gone #but it's everywhere over there!!!!! wow!!!!!!! this shit sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!#I loved being on tumblr and going lalalalala oblivious to all the discourse in the world #can all the artists I like just move here 😭#the discourse is seeping into me too I can feel it infecting me like a disease #I've gone to make posts getting mad and up n arms over headcanons I like or even ones I just don't mind but that people are weirdly mad abt #and I have to stop myself like boy this isn't you this isn't your heart #holding my head in my hands I think I gotta unfollow some folks but I don't think even that will remove all the DRAMA on my tl. SAVE ME

it's weird how jhope is Right There and he's like the Most Talented Person but some armys just. don't see him. should be studied

#if you do see him i'm not talking about you obviously #but it does happen #like before i got into bts #my mom and sister didn't really notice jhope #he was just There #and when i said he was my bias they couldn't say anything about him except for 'he's a sunshine'#they liked him but didn't actually care #well now he's their fave haha #but i think many ''armys'' stop at that first phase #where they see him as this funny clown but they don't notice that he's actually insanely incredibly talented and cool #his rap verses are ALWAYS top tier #everything about him is just top tier #yes i'm biased but also how can you not see it when you already stan bts 😭#soooo many armys like him just because he's there but not because they like HIM #and it shows #oh they're missing out #they notice when he supports the other members #(which is often because he loves them so much :'))#but wow they have this Artist right under their noses and choose to only see his (admittedly beautiful) smile #even after jitb and all that it meant #ok rant over #chicken noodle soup thank you for making me a jhope bias and saving me from this fate amen #hobi #bts #my post #it is Very Late perhaps that's why i'm saying this lol #oh one more thing i've never watched these introduction to bts videos #but i just KNOW they are shit about hoseok and his contributions to the group #if you don't have something interesting to say about all the members maybe don't make an ot7 introductory video idk just a thought

@bad-theory say sike right now bro i always wished to be powerful enough to . influence someone's Affection Levels for a Character like that 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

#i felt such a sunburst of glee DO YOU UNDERSTAND #bc i'll see other ppl vouch for their faves and say all these smart things and draw crazy good stuff #and eventually it wins other people over to that char's fanbase and. wow. isn't that so nice #(scoops more people into the basket of creating content for that char. just entering the cycle of feeding each other)#i didn't think i would ever help yakumo's case LOL i'm just dunking on him all day #you walk onto my blog and it's just me violently shaking his shoulders like #[WHAT ARE YOU. YOU ARE HOPELESS. I HATE YOU. WHY ARE YOU LIKE THJIS.#YOU HAVE NO ASS OR TITS. YOU'RE THW BEANPOLE-EST OF THE NOTHINGEST OF THE BL GENRE. YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO STAND UP FOR YOURSELF #WHAT IS GOING ON WITH YOUR YAOI HANDS. GETOUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *throws him into a lake*]#...#then again #i feel like if someone else were to start smacktalking yakumo and they said the exact same things as me #i would turn contrarian like YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. NO I DID NOT JUST SAY THE SAME THING. IT'S DIFFERENT #(it was not different.)#look i'm gonna shut up before i go on a whole nother. rant. about nothing #but thank u for your tags.... people actually liking my interpretation of a character is amazing to me #I HAVE A VERY SPECIFIC VIEWPOINT AND A VERY SPECIFIC SET OF LIKES. ALL OF WHICH I WILL PUSH AS AN AGENDA (quite conspicuously)#the tags tho

i think its insane that candace was only being paid $3.50 an hour for her first job but then i realized that's also how much i made per hour when i got my first job too

#granted my job was after the great recession and i think candace's was probably written before it #im like wow imagine getting paid under $4 an hour and then im like... wait a minute #wow look at this pathetic teen girl... WAIT #phineas and ferb #pnf #dwampyverse #candace flynn #dan povenmire #i think i was also 16 at the time and candace is like 15 in toy to the world #i assume shes younger than vanessa bc she calls vanessa a cool older girl in night of the living pharmacists #and vanessa turns 16 in s1 so i assume candace turned 15 in the mt rushmore episode #imagine that was her s16 i would be so upset if i were her #but also i didn't do anything for my s16 even though i wanted to #my mom got me a gift card for a place we only went to togeter so i was like why would u pay extra to activate the gift card why not just #buy the stuff #idk
