#and Then theres the tattoo i want to get......🤔

[orcelito]

Thinking about getting a nose piercing. Like a little stud on the side... on the right side. My cartilage piercing is on the left & I plan to wear a lil hoop on it once it's healed enough. And that just might be the only cartilage piercing I want? Bc I have my double lobes and I got only one cartilage piercing bc I like the idea of having just one lil hoop in one ear. Coincidentally on the same side as Vash's hoop, though I chose it long b4 getting into Trigun bc I part my hair to the right lol, which means a cartilage piercing would be more visible on the left.

Anyways I was thinking about it and if I have a side nose piercing on the right of my nose, then an eyebrow piercing on my left eyebrow... balanced with my hair on the right side... I think that'd be my ideal piercing setup tbh, at least for my face.

Could change my mind later, but I am Thinking about it

1 and 12 for Quinn, 18 for Andre ?

Thanks for asking! [questions]

Read More for big long post! <3

1 What was the first element of your OC that you remember considering (name, appearance, backstory, etc.)?

It was right after Art Fight and I desperately wanted a Queer Horror OC before Halloween season. There was a lot of talk about what kind of horror we wanted to go towards. (which maybe still is not quite settled as there are multiple "Horror Movie Plots" in our Whorror Movie story.) But we settled on demon possessed with some religious trauma and a bit of delicious revenge, and Darla and I both worked on designing our own guys separately and see how they would fit together. I sketched these:

I thought the demon might be similar to an AU demon we have, Goopy, who possesses Lucky and Nate in a story, so that's why I have the drippy drawing in the corner and the inspo for the top surgery tattoos. That's how Goopy was! But Quinn's Demon is a bit different now! Black hair with horns was a must but it mostly became spiky hair with the Vibe of horns. (… unless! rule of cool: draw them as horns anyway its badass!!)

In an early iteration of the story Quinn and Parker were going to find a baby possessed by a demon, from an Evil Cult Town. Quinn's demon and Parker's strength (and bloodthirst) destroyed their Big Bad leader who was doing the baby/demon sacrifices, and the baby was abandoned, maybe thought to be dead? They were like sure… We'll see what we can do with this little thang. They named it Blair Belladonna. They knew of an older witchy/demon knowledgeable grandma figure (literally Domino's Grandma before Domino was a character) who could help them learn about this baby's demon and how to raise a little demonling. BUT That never settled into canon, there is no baby Blair. (However! Much of the baby demon possessing cult thing turned into Domino's backstory. 👀)

12 What have you found to be most difficult about creating art for your OC?

Remembering the dripping perma crying eyeliner down his cheeks. Yes it's supposed to be a permanent feature. 😔 Also figuring out how to draw the hair in between the "horns", how to make it spiky but not distract from The Big Spikes, which direction its going off in, etc. Otherwise I think Quinns pretty easy to grasp for me! 🤔 I love when I get to use flat black for hair and clothes when I'm just doodling so thats always a relief.

18 What is the most recent thing you’ve discovered about your OC?

This was trickyyy ahh Andre's such an old character that hasn't been the main focus lately, so a lot of thinking of him recently has been like. Reminiscing on old facts and not necessarily bringing in anything new. If theres something I've recently discovered of him, I can't think of it!

One thing I've recently decided after some consideration is that I'm going to fuse the Original Andre story where he adopts Delilah the robot and the AU where Andre has an Actual Human Baby instead of the robot together. So now, Delilah and baby Leia exist at the same time! Yay, two of them!!! It's gonna have to make me rethink and plan out his timeline a bit differently and see how he reacts to things now. I just haven't actually set out the time to plan the combined story yet. I feel like I softened up Andre's story a bit in the baby AU, (less drug use, less bad relationships with sketchy people, etc) so I'll have to see if I end up keeping it slightly more balanced or if it'll stay more true to the Actual Canon events, maybe just pushed around the timeline a bit.

Something else that feels new from semi recent times: I thought of an AU where all three of his parents actually like. Get together/stay together polycule it up and raise Andre together rather than the usual backstory of:

two good friends in college befriend and get a crush on the same woman

the guys start a business together

one of them marries the woman and they have a kid together but he gets way too into his work and neglects his wife, oops :(

she then goes to their friend for comfort, which leads to cheating, which leads to she GETS PrEGNANT (WITH ANDRE!) (NOT her Husband's child!) oops :(

she tells her husband the truth and they talk about separating

The Friend leaves The Business and is told to basically never speak to them again

Husband decides will simply raise this child as his own and works on bettering himself and the marriage (if only for appearances and/or for their older daughters sake) and he will simply Not resent the New Child for any reason, it's That Easy! (he said, you know, like a liar.)

Andre finds this out (Accidentally! From his SISTER) as a full grown ass adult and it fucks him up for a bit. oops :(

⬆ this is a lot to Get Into. And also it's Not the new stuff, although I probably haven't actually delved into it before…!

But basically, all this to say, this New 3 Parent AU leads to Andre being much more well adjusted, because so much of his… THing in his life (in canon timeline) has juust been. family treating him unfairly for something he had no part in and resenting/reacting to that. 🥴 And his two dads are such opposite strict/lenient personalities that they'd balance each other like, reallly wellll if they had that opportunity to both raise him from the start, and Andre would have someone in his corner when he's Going Through rough times in life. AUgh. If only… (Also his bio dad is … probably autistic like him so I think someone would like, UNDERSTAND him and the way he does things while growing up which is like, wow groundbreaking.)

Get To Know Me asks:

12, 15, 22, 27, 29, and 30

Thank you for the Ask!

12) What is something you want right now?

Tickets to see Ghost/ for them to come back to the US because I need them in my life 😂😭

15) Personality description.

I have a hard time explaining myself so we shall see how this goes 😂 I tend to be kind of quiet at first but the more you get to know me the less I shut up (ask my husband). I’m definitely outgoing, hardworking, and tend to forget to take time for myself because I get too caught up in things. Pretty sure I have undiagnosed ADHD because sometimes things get wild (like Jutty, iykyk). 9 times out of 10 my brain is working faster than I can keep up with 😂 Not much of a party girl but if you’re in my friend group, theres nothing I love more than spending quality time with my small circle.

I hyperfixate on things like you would not believe. Like when I like something I REALY like something, I’ll eat, sleep, and breathe it until it runs it course or it stays i.e. Supernatural, Starwars, Ghost, and Sleep Token. And then it will likely become a tattoo 😅

My heart is always with other people. I work in a field where I care for people with developmental disabilities and theres nothing that makes me happier than to see people who cannot succeed on their own succeeding even with help. I’ve been told I make a great leader in my field as well.

I’m also not someone who gets angry but when I do, someone really must have done something quite bad. I am a quietly angry person whose usually blowing up on the inside but you’d probably never know it other than the dead silence.

I hope that was that answers that!

22) Descrption of Crush.

🤔 Like fictional or real life? Personality or looks? I guess I’ll start off by saying I’m not a looks person. Obviously I find people attractive but its always been about so much more for me. Someone who is caring and patient enough to put up with my brain is good enough for me 😂 I’ve always been drawn to the personalities like Hunter but obviously he’s beautiful to look at so double win.

27) Things I hate…

Disrespectful people. This is one of my biggest pet peeves I guess we can say. Like you don’t have to like me and I don’t have to like you but you will NEVER catch me being disrespectful to someone. I give it and expect people to give the same which I really don’t think is a big ask.

Grape/Cherry flavoring. I took medication as a kid that made me sick to my stomach that was flavored like that 🤷‍♀️

29) Favorite Film

Corpse Bride (2005) (at least right now because it tends to change)

30) Favorite Tv shows

Supernatural, The Bad Batch, The Mandalorian, The Witcher (these are shows that I will default to when I can’t find anything else to watch).

Hi there !

What do you feel about lemons ? And Snickers bar ? Are you a fan ? An anti ?

I feel you might like both of them for some absolutely unknown reason 🤔 (i have zero clue why).

What do you feel about lemon flavoured Snickers ? (Snickers flavoured lemon ? ) °_°

Ah sorry just messing with you ! (Sorry if that was awkward )

I found this blog recently and you seem pretty cool !❤️ (Can't wait to go poke around the blog . Theres lemons there apparently (⁠＠⁠_⁠＠⁠;⁠) your writing is pretty cool too !)

Have a nice day !❤️❤️❤️❤️🍋🍫

anon. anonanonanonaonoanaonaonaonaonnnnnnnnnn.

i was actually - literally not figuratively - just thinking about lemons when this popped into my ask box asl;dfkjasl;dfj

i'm not even kiddinggggggg. i was specifically thinking about how i want to get a little lemon tattoo! but then people in my real life will probably ask about it and i'm gonna have to be like, "uhh... you know, when life gives you citrus fruits make minute maid..." or whatever.

(because really it would be for here, you know?)

i like a snickers bar from time to time but prefer a milky way midnight if i have the option (if we're talking grocery store checkout candy bars, kit kat is tops followed by reese's, three musketeers, and then milky way, i don't make the rules). i've never eaten a lemon snickers bar and as someone who is not a big fan of citrus + chocolate (with the one exception of eating a single slice of that chocolate orange my grandmother keeps in her freezer around christmastime), i doubt i'd ever try one.

if i sliced a lemon open and it looked like the inside of a snickers bar, i'd know the collapse of reality was imminent and finally melt into the woods like i have always wanted to become a bit of particularly damp green moss, as the universe intended.

thanks for stopping by; i hope you're having a wonderful week. <3

6. Drawing by far! I really like drawing, I've posted a few doodles on my blog.

16. I want to get a full back piece and two full sleeves on both arms!! I don't really know of what, but I really like the art style of yakuza tattoos (which is so problematic ik but it looks so good 😭). Maybe a tiger and snake on my arms and two koi fish on my back?

26. Watching Spongebob? I can't think of something that's exclusive to children that I also enjoy tbh. Are chocolate covered pretzels childish? Is anime childish? 🤔

27. Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston is def my favorite book!! It's soso good, the themes and symbolism and relevent social commentary is... Immaculate 😚👌

1x05 background details:

In the opening flashback, teenage apocalypse Five has Diego’s knives and holster strapped to his leg.

The hat he’s wearing is very similar to Reginald’s but it’s not quite the same. Those are the same googles though.

In the winter, Five put a hat and a coat on Delores so she wouldn’t get cold :(

In the spring he put sunglasses on her

There were animals in the apocalypse because you can hear vultures. Also Five has a rifle, so presumably he hunted for food.

The title card for this episode is an Umbrella Academy lunchbox amidst Five’s things, which definitely makes me wonder if he collected memorabilia that had his siblings on it. 

You can see the Eiffel Tower in the background on the lunchbox

In Diego’s room at the gym you can see a poster for his and Vanya’s band from the comics; The Prime 8s. It says “Live Again” and “Yes This Is The Knife Life” Knife Life is likely a nod to MCRs song The Sharpest Lives

Diego punches things when he’s distraught or upset (the floor when he found Eudora, the steering wheel the next day.) He also fidgets with his hands a lot. Flexes them, pops his knuckles etc.

Five’s contract for the Commission was 5 years, then he could retire to whenever time he wanted. He obviously didn’t complete his contract.

The Handler refers to the apocalypse as “just the end of something.” Episode 2x10 is titled The End Of Something.

Old man Five has Vanya’s book too. Dang. He really carried that book around his entire life

It’s hard to see but there’s a line in Extra Ordinary that says “Five was my sole confidant before he disappeared.” There's a full excerpt around here somewhere, but until I find it again, here is a transcription.

Luther made Five breakfast and (I assume) coffee for his hangover

Vanya hadn’t seen Allison since 2007. (Vanya, to Allison: I haven’t see you in 12 years.)

Time travel symptoms according to Five:

— headache

— jet lag

— full body itch

Random details about Klaus’ room.

— his is the only one with a TV

— theres a big book on his shelf that just says Ghosts.

— he’s got multiple tea kettles and a hot plate

— He’s written the things the dead have said all over his walls

— Interestingly, there’s also an eyeball drawn on his wall with the words “the day we die” written beneath it. Now Klaus has known about the eyeball/apocalypse since 1x02 but at this point, the only time we know he has spent in his room was the headphone scene before he got kidnapped in 1x03. Which means, he either drew it then or it’s something he drew a long time ago. (Or it’s just simply an easter egg). Who knows. 🤔

In Diego’s room in 2019 there’s knives stuck in the dartboard. There’s also a guitar in the corner. In the comics, he played bass along with Vanya for The Prime 8s.

ALSO THE GREEN MIRROR IS THERE WHEN HE KNEELS DOWN TO GET THE KNIVES

The brigade Klaus was in during Vietnam was called the Sky Soldiers. You can see it on his tattoo and on a plaque at the bar.

Agnes: Everybody should have a nest to fly to when they’re tired.

In the car scene when Luther and Five are waiting for Hazel and Cha-Cha they are in one of Reginald’s cars. The license plate says “Hermes.” You see the car again in 1x07 during Harold’s flashback.

When Klaus waves from the ice cream truck LUTHER WAVES BACK 🤣

Luther jumped in front of Five when Hazel and Cha-Cha started shooting.

The Handler refers to herself as “a small cog in a machine” which could perhaps be a reference to the line in the My Chemical Romance song ‘Teenagers’ that says “Another cog in the murder machine.”
