#I am nothing but concrete

[deoidesign]

Are you slowly going insane over your OWN ocs?

No, I've been infected by brainworms the entire time. Nothing slow about it.

But honestly, no... It's not really about my characters to me. I love my characters, of course, and I love telling stories, and I hope to keep making art of my characters every day until I die.

But it's not about them! They're not REALLY what I love, what I love is people! And I hope I can leave the world with a hundred different love letters so my readers can feel how much I love them for even one day longer than I am here.

My characters are a conduit through which I can give that to people. I want nothing more than to make someone feel a little more loved, a little more seen, and a little less alone. And my characters are the best way I know how to do that.

So for that, they're incredibly important to me... But they're not for me. They're for you!

So I hope you enjoy them

and I hope you can feel that I love you through them.

Been brainroting about Nine and Kit and how they circle back and show the two ugly extremes of Tails while also not being him at all and I'm actually maybe going insane but hear me out!!

Thimbking about how Nine is so desperately trying to prove that he is his own person and distances himself from Tails with everything in his power while looking like and, in certain instances, acting near identical to the other. And then Kit, who looks and acts absolutely nothing like the fox he was meant to replace (girls' not even the same type of fox!!!) while literally being programmed to only follow orders and have no thoughts of his own besides that he's meant to take someone else's place

The meme I already made about Nine being angry as a default response to any possible conflict while Kit turns into a crying and unstable emotional mess[affectionate]

Something something if I'm reading too much into this don't tell me but both Kit and Nine representing the need for Tails to have at least one dependable person for him to fall back on and Nine being the show that a lack of it turned him bitter and abrasive, while Kit is yet again the opposite extreme by having his whole personality and wants revolve around someone else (yet he expresses his distrust and hate towards everyone but that person, so perhaps they're not so different after all)

And how they should absolutely hold hands and kibth /j

To this day I don’t understand why people are convinced that Dimentio wrote the Dark Prognosticus. I’ve been a fan for over 10 years now and not one thing in the game’s text has given me cause to think that he might be the author. If he’s the magician’s son, it still most likely predates him as the knowledge of how to create Pixls in the first place came from it. It’s just a very long standing fan theory that’s been around since the game came out.

[through gritted teeth] i am so normal about this

[rowan-berrie]

Does anyone have any tips for binding with kinesiology style tape with a larger chest/body type? I've ordered some for myself but I'm having trouble finding resources that aren't aimed at smaller chested and/or more petite folks than myself

[shitlinguistssay]

Absolutely thrilled by the alternate Vol 9 finale premier or whatever it was, but my girl gets no fucking respect I'm screaming

Meme to cope below the cut

[gothmileena]

its so late but im like. ive been thinking for Three Days Straight about how much i love mileena lmao like okay. okay. she's a fucking construct basically made to be kitana's 'better' replacement & Made To Order to suit her father's purposes, except she's kinda put in this weird position where despite being told she's the rightful heir etc etc, she's also constantly reminded of the fact that she's not the original, that she's a clone at Best. & her tarkatan side is so very off-putting to people around her, she's feared and that gains her some respect but also she's never actually been loved, so there's something she's missing out on and i think honestly on a very deep subconscious level, that's exactly the type of connection she's craving. i don't even know if she would organically want to be khan, or if she just had it drilled into her that it was 1. the only path for her to take and 2. the only way she would ever find any sort of acceptance from anyone, even it was was forced.

i think there's a part of her that really does want a real connection with her sister but because she has no real way of knowing how to build that (not like kitana is interested in the first place lmao) it just manifests in hostility. idk maybe it's just projecting but i read a lot of her lashing out & anger as a cover for a deeper hurt & feeling of isolation. it's very clear that no one is really accepting her for Her nor are they interested in doing so, and i have to believe it's affected her emotional development. i could also just be reading too much into her teddy bear tea party, but there was something i found to be really just... sad almost? about the jade and kitana bears. like yes it's silly or whatever but c'mon. i think it's very much implied that there's some jealousy towards their friendship, and i think that there was a time she would have loved to be included in it but just couldn't break in. i maintain she doesn't actually hate kitana & what we see is a mixture of shao khan's influence + repeated rejection.

i'm not saying that love can 'fix' her or whatever, but i think a genuine friend who was in her corner and just wanted to be around her without fear-based coercion would make a huge impact in her life.

woooo new oc time

Meet,

Sunbaked Finch Cookie! Based off a vampire ground finch!

Sunbaked Finch, much like the vampire ground finch, has a habit of feeding off of other cookies! Formed from a rather unpleasant childhood (trauma), this habit has gotten them into trouble before, but they’ve made no attempt to fix it, and will continue to not fix it until it kills them!

Friends are, unfortunately, not exempt from their feeding habits! As found out by Ventresca Cookie (belonging to @limboraptor) at, some point!

Sunbaked Finch Cookie, and will, bite anything that moves- whether it’s friend or foe does not particularly matter to them-

While I’m not too sure how Sunbaked Finch met Ventresca, I can say with certainty that if anyone were to be considered a part of Ventresca’s crew, they likely would be, even if unofficially! They’re about as looney bins as would be needed to willingly go into an entire hurricane for one sea beast. Although they are, of course, mainly going for the prospects of food, and helping a friend.

Fun fact; Sunbaked Finch used to have wings!

Keywords; used to.

sort of comic below the cut; warning for, possibly disturbing imagery? Not too sure how well anyone would take wing “bones” trying to break through “skin”. So- yeah look with caution?

”Hey, Ven, could you look at my back? It feels like something’s been pushing against my shirt-“

“Sure, couldn’t be too-

…baadd…-“

“Oh shit.”

“Huh? Ven?- Ventresca? What’s wrong?-“

(this is where that warning comes in.)

“….We’re paying a visit to a doctor.”

and now, wingless lore <3 Sunbaked’s wings were removed forcefully, after an incident where they were caught by another cookie in high power after draining some poor bloke dry of their jam. Sunbaked was expected to be facing charges for what would have been considered a murder, but, their, captor so to speak, thought of a different punishment for them rather than jail time.

You can guess where that went- but yeah, Sunbaked basically had their wings ripped off for doing their best to survive :D

This will all probably change at some point so enjoy this trauma while it lasts- and shoot me if this is too edgy for a cookie that looks like them ;-;
