#But I Swear You're Really Pretty
Text
Any other trans girl out there who plays the bass? x)
Some years ago, I wanted to make a virtual band with my OCs. I've always loved music and had the chance to be in a couple of local bands, but nothing that lasted long enough. I mostly played the drums x) but since then I wanted to make my own project. In this virtual band, Avelyn plays the bass! Elizabeth plays the guitar, and (I hope you know them, but will understand if you don't x) You will soon!) Giselle plays the guitar too, Eris plays the drums, and Valerie plays the piano/keyboard.
This year I want to start making music again, and compose things I'd love them to play! Also because I have a couple of ideas in mind for animations, and I want to make the music for them -u- So I've set a goal on Ko-Fi (https://ko-fi.com/samlizzy71) in case anyone wants to help! As always, donating is completely voluntary! I took the chance to draw this and ask for your help since Lynn's birthday is next month (February 19) so this will also count as her birthday gift <3
Hope you like it, and this will soon be available as a poster at my Redbubble store!

So many plotpoints I just don't understand in this arc. Why have bkg die? Why have him fight afo? Why have izuku lose his arms? What purpose has any of it served???? At all???????
Todorki and ochakos fights were handled so well and streamlined and benefited their characters and arcs but bkgs and dekus have been a mess all bcus hori is a coward who won't just let them fight together bcus ig save to win and win to save meant nothing at all
Why have bkg die?
I think it's pretty clear from the way that whole thing was framed that the purpose of Katsuki dying was symbolic. This is a staple of Japanese drama running all the way back to kabuki. It is a trope for a main character to die to shed their mortal incarnation and come back to life as their deified form. Katsuki's death runs perfectly parallel to Tomura's from the PLW arc right down to the part where they are both responsible for their own resurrections. It's probably one of the best cases I can think of where a character's death actually did further that same character's arc without fridging them for the sake of someone else.
Why have [Katsuki] fight AFO?
Because AFO was set up as a "what if" scenario or cautionary tale for Katsuki, the other side to his "villains and heroes are two sides of the same coin" storyline. AFO in his physical form has a different character arc and story utility from AFO the quirk vestige. He provided a lot of backstory that allows us to infer the subtlety of how Katsuki is likely some sort of reincarnation of Kudou, the mechanics of which we will never need to revisit because they're unimportant. It was about karma and personal growth. It was about showcasing how Katsuki is an heir to many legacies, All Might's included.
Why have Izuku lose his arms?
Again, it's symbolic. It's been foreshadowed pretty heavily that Izuku would risk losing his arms in reaching out to save someone. This was a demonstration of his willingness to take on that risk. It also provides a moment for Eri to get in on the "everyone contributes a little bit to the fight" action all the other characters have been allowed to have. We don't even know yet what state Izuku will actually be in when this is all over, so it'd be premature to jump to any major conclusions about all of this. The story may still have a lot to say about this.
What purpose has any of it served???? At all???????
To entertain me specifically.
Todorki and ochakos fights were handled so well and streamlined and benefited their characters and arcs but bkgs and dekus have been a mess all bcus hori is a coward who won't just let them fight together bcus ig save to win and win to save meant nothing at all
Bold of you to assume you've read the final chapter in the story yet.
#anon ask#ask pika#my hero academia manga spoilers#final arc spoilers#at this point i'm just gonna have to get snarky about all of these sorts of asks#if you guys won't stop to think about this story and find the answers to your questions yourself why is that my problem#you're entitled to your own opinion#but jeez#one sloppy chapter and you all go off the deep end with it i swear#as if every story out there doesn't have a bit of this going on#seriously#is this sort of reaction really merited just by the fact izuku's arms are being healed???#if you need context just know i've been getting a ton of asks like this lately and i'm pretty sure they're not all from different people

A hero is only as good as his weapons, so make ‘em count (Patreon)
#Doodles#Original#Another idea smol and I are working on together :D Been a bit!#She came up with the concept on this one and I fell in love with it <3 She's very cool hehe#If you're familiar with the game Minit it has Something of a similar premise - not the same strict time pressure but yes on the time loop#Y'ever notice how in some games it seems like the wandering trader or traveling shop seems to come upon you rather than the other way around#:3c Hm ♪ Wonder how they'd know where you were gonna be :3c#The crux is that you play as the weapons shop owner and you're responsible for supplying the hero and his team with weapons!#Except the BBEG has gotten wise to how the hero keeps defeating him and it sick of it - so the shop owner is cursed to be in a time loop!#I love the concept <3 It sounds so fun to play in and there's still plenty of room to think about the mechanics and how it would be played#As well as the art design! :D#We threw around some character concepts - she's really into Baldur's Gate 3 at the moment so of course they had some influence in hers hehe#Only got the starting party for the moment but there are plans for a full team of 4 plus the shopkeep >:3c And various other NPCs lol#A lot of the gameplay would basically boil down to being a bartering simulator hehe ♪#Very RPG trade-this-for-that style quests - under a time limit! Hehe#Since it's the type of game that pretty much requires replaying sections time-loop-style it's all about how quickly you can trial and error#And then hightail it to where you need to be lol#I think we were also tossing around a nap mechanic to skip right to the time loop reset in case you mess up a run haha#I gotta get back to Majora's Mask at some point I swear#We still have a good bit of concept work to do on the art side of things - she's also been really into pixel art lately and I love pixel art#I also managed to pick up a full release of one of the RPGMakers :D So that's an exciting possibility!#I haven't learned most of its ins and outs yet but I do know About importing custom assets at the very least >:3c#Same with Novelty and I haven't done that yet either lol - all in due time! I hope!!

#military surplus store trip 2 days ago#I got a very pink cowboy hat despite questioning everything about how I present myself. it was Calling to me#multiple people loved it and when I got home and put it on my 3 yo sister stopped in her tracks and said 'wow... you're soo pretty'#that has never happened before#so I Guess the pink cowboy hat will be a Special Fashion Thing#despite the little existential crisis it gives me every time I think about being a pink cowboy hat girl#which is a bit ridiculous but there you go.#I was so secretly dedicated to looking either vaguely emo (<333) or cuttingly defensively professional for a long time#that the idea of being COWBOY-aligned (CONSERVATIVE IDOLS UGH) and not only that but PINK (feminine??? >:O) really did not appeal#but it looks GOOD on me and... sigh. I don't have to make people know my personality by my clothes. I can just wear what I WANT to#and I really do LIKE the pink cowboy hat!! it's silly and awesome and goes clink and it's a COWBOY HAT man!!!#I get to be BOTH pink cowboy AND every other thing I am. I can still be CoolTM. I can still be completely myself.#those who love me will understand me. those who don't... don't have to understand me.#goodness gracious that was a lot of soul-searching over a HAT#I also got very very tough Army jungle combat boots#I am expecting them last well >:D and they make me feel SO POWERFUL#Robin processes emotions on main#I Guess XD#I only meant to tell y'all about my cool new items I swear

My gender complex goes back 3 generations and through two queer women and their family trauma, I feel like I know what I'm talking about. We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
#i got my gender from my she/her misogynistic transmas gay dad who's also the mother of my mom.#my sperm donor doesn't matter here.#he's kinda fruity though and swears he's just a straight southern boy in alaska.#my dad/grandma and my sperm donor/dad were/are both autistic though.#im pretty my great-grandfather (whom i was named after (whom was named after his father)) was autistic to.#and even though he was an abusive piece of shit the autism had him connect with one of his four lesser-sons.#so she got a bit of a complex from really admiring him. i got a bit of a complex from really admiring her. i was named after him.shit's wild#oh yeah and a psychic told my grandma in a past life she was her fathers husband and she thought it was crazy but he said that makes sense#(in that past life he was his daughters wife to clarify)#he didnt even believe in that shit she was blown away when he said that like ''dad you're joking right?'' (he wasnt)#it was to explain why he always broke down in tears hearing the bag pipes.#this hardcore military man would just start crying when he heard bagpipes playing. absolutely break down.#and the psychic said it's because they played bagpipes when my grandma/his/her husband came back from war after leaving her to fight.#she had the gaul to give my mom his last name. her maiden name. and well my mother never married so i got it too.#the family hated us for that.#and he treated her(my grandma's) daughter way better than any of his own kids. so the family hated us for that too.#my mom's also an ace/bilesbian lol.#out of all the confusion im trans so like. i feel like i have a better handle because of that.#i take a bit of pride and freedom in the confusion.#hexacles.txt

i have this colleague and whenever we’re talking about learning japanese he always just proudly says how he has this phrase book and he just shows people and points to the phrase he wants to say instead of bothering to learn the language and i’m like dude why tf are you here
#he is really not my kind of person#he also proudly told us about the time he terrified all the kids by shouting at them and being super strict#and about how one time he literally forced this kid to do his attendance stamp so the kid would know it's 'better to just do what he's told'#he covered at our senpai's schools once and she told me the next time she saw them the kids said he was scary and they didn't like him#he swears all the time#he talks over everyone in meetings#he has on multiple occasions done that thing where he repeats what female colleagues say then acts like it's his idea#he's loud and he's rude and he complains all the time about pretty much everything#one time he had to cover at one of my schools and i ran into him on the train and asked him how it went#and he just said 'it was shit'#also called one of the kids an asshole#(he's not an asshole he's just a bit of a joker)#and i was like. dude stfu that's my school and my kids you're talking about#truly taking the stereotype of canadians being polite and friendly and flipping it off

I am still not over the revelation that was Ricky/Bill on Rampage. I can't believe how much I've 180'd from ''I love Ricky but I have precisely zero thoughts about Big Bill'' to ''I love these two, they are everything and I will be ever so pissed if they lose the titles and break up anytime soon'' This is my Better Than You Bay Bay. Except vastly superior because this is actually good! They better get a proper defence at Full Gear and RETAIN!
I am not over Ricky telling Bill he's doing a good job on commentary and that his mom loves him?? Lemme tell ya, folks, I've dated enough momma's boys to know that is the highest compliment one of them can pay you. And Ricky is 100% a momma's boy so if Bill has her blessing, then who cares that they're a thrown together tag team? IT'S TRUE LOVE/LUST, DAMMIT.
...God help me I'm actually tempted to try and write something with these two. Maybe even try to get over my smut hurdle by writing something trashy with them? I'M SORRY, I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED, BUT IT HAS, I HAVE FALLEN AND I CANNOT GET UP
#What is wrong with you Sam you should not be allowed to write#I would compare this situation to when your best friend starts dating someone and to begin with you you're just like#''I love you and all but...why this person? What do you see in them? You are way too awesome to be with someone like this!''#But then you get to know the person and you're like#''Alright I was wrong about you you're actually pretty cool and I'm happy for you both''#And then you suddenly find yourself thinking about them fucking all the time and wanting to write filth about it#...that was a joke I've never done that about IRL friends#I WAS KIDDING I SWEAR I'M NOT (THAT MUCH) OF A CREEP#I really need to learn to cool it when I tag posts

Last year, I started drawing a comic for this story, but I realized there were many things I had to fix or change, so I rewrote the first chapters before continuing to draw the comic. I will remake the first pages of the comic to fit the new version, too. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the written version!
You can find it on AO3, and I'll post future chapters there too:

must my brain sound like an edgy incel chronically online gamer that screams slurs into the mic when they lose a Fortnite match -_-
#like whenever I'm#idk ig splitting would be the right term here#every thought just becomes a violent stew of slurs and view points that I don't normally have otherwise#got nothing against fat people but if I'm splitting on one#you best believe my thoughts are gonna revolve around every generic fatphobic insult you've ever heard#even though I literally don't even agree with any of it....#goes for literally anything you can discriminate against too#honestly it feels pretty gross#and gets pretty weird when it's like... demeaning against women... when I'm also...a woman#like good job brain you insulted yourself in the process#I guess these are like intrusive thoughts in a way?#idk the racist ones in particular just feel really gross#like did I REALLY just think that? for real? girl who ARE you#I know not to take it too seriously bc 1. thought crimes aren't real and#2. if the switch hadn't flipped and I wasn't temporarily upset with that individual#I wouldn't think a single discriminatory thing about them. I wouldn't be vehemently insulting them and cussing them out with vitriol#it's just 'oh I hate you now' *cue an endless steam of random swearing and slurs and discrimination and violent feelings of hatred*#and then back to 'oh you're cool I love you again' with a 'what the actual fuck was i just thinking??'#...... I can't believe these are my moral standards of gross#like oh noes I called someone a stupid fat bitch....in my head.... that I don't even agree with 90% of the time#I never say any of this out loud at least. thank the stars I know how to hold my tongue#r.r

just apologised out loud to a fucking fly
#in case you're wondering how my day is going#it was one of those really noisy and annoying ones and it got into my flat and wouldn't leave#so i tried chasing it outside with a broom but it still wouldn't get the message#so my broom chasing methods got slightly more... aggressive and i must have accidentally hit the fly because it tumbled onto the windowsill#i scooped it up in my hand and carried it outside but now it won't move so i think i probably killed it :(#which i feel pretty bad about ngl. i'm sorry little fly i swear it was an accident

#they got EVERYTHING in there i swear to god they pulled it off!#eta: they also got a couple of things in there that i’m pretty sure NOBODY wanted lmao but that’s fair enough#bound to happen when you're throwing every single dart at the board at once#more thoughts tomorrow it’s late but like… yeah they were out here tying up loose threads that i didn’t even realize were still loose#so many callbacks… we went full circle about six different times. 2160 degrees#ted lasso#ted lasso spoilers#<- not really just being considerate#caseyposting

explained autism poorly today. will never recover from this
#it was to a very close friend so im not super worried abt it#we were just discussing reasons why therapy/getting an autism diagnosis was difficult and she asked me how i knew at first#and rather than giving the real examples and evidence i have i nervously gave conjecture bc we haven't ever really talked abt it before#again she's a very good friend of mine but. man do i feel stupid lol#instead of explaining masking and my raads-r score and what that means and how it affects me i talked abt shit i barely even remember#like girl. you better not fuck it up like this when you're actually trying to get a diagnosis lmao i swear to god#im being sort of silly but im also actually extremely disappointed in myself that ive done this much research#and at the first question i stumbled so hard that i was like. telling a story rather than giving evidence#its not like i cant rectify it like it isnt as if we'll never talk abt it again but#ugh#i need to learn how to slow down and pick my words without getting nervous about the silence/the wait#or i could die. that would solve it pretty quickly i think#vent#sorry
