summary:

“Hi baby.”

Buck melted into Eddie instantly at the endearment, Eddie opening his arms, pulling him in close. He smelled like his coconut shampoo, the one that was mixed with vanilla, Eddie letting the comforting scent envelope him.

He tugged Buck over the threshold with him, kicking the door closed. Bucks’ arms wrapped around his neck securely, Eddie keeping his on Buck’s waist.

Eddie ducked his head down a bit, placing it over where Buck’s heart laid, listening closely, counting the beats. It was something he’d started doing as of late, wanting, no—needing to know that Buck was alive, that his heart was still beating. After the lightning strike, Eddie hadn’t been able to hear it at all.

“I’m ok babe, promise.”

—or—

After the lightning strike, all Eddie wants to hear is the beat of Buck's heart. In fact, he'd like for it to drown everything else out.

goodbye my worst year (I like this compilation tho)

also sorry, too busy to make some special art for this holiday unfortunately 🙁 [even the December art here is still a wip that already changed but I am way too far from laptop to put the newer version here, tho what am i saying half of these arent finished (╯︵╰,) ]

[wiihtigo]

do u have any tips for getting into ocs and developing them tho 🤔😭

Hmm I’ve had ocs in the past and I’ve wondered why I picked and chose favorites among the cast I made and I thjnk for the ones I didn’t gaf about it was because I was forcing myself to make characters filling space because I thought it would make my story look more complete but it just ended up I neglected those ocs because I found nothing about them fun or compelling to spend time on.

With casey I’ve definitely gone full self indulgence which was probably helped by the fact her concept was literally based on a joke self insert character so the fuel for me spending time with her was my intense fixation on booster gold and how much I wanted to destroy hurt kill bite kill punch to death kick kill him 😀

Make things fun for yourself! Don’t shy away from making things that you know you’re already crazy for … I’m not shy about saying casey as a concept is a culmination of a LOT of favorite characters I’ve had in the past like peridot (su), the invader zim and tak storyline, Daffy Duck .. to name a few!

And I spent a long time perfecting her design so that it was fun to draw for me …. I made her a secretary/office lady type character cuz um. I THINK THEYRE HOT? LOL … and I really like that fashion style I draw her in. So she’s almost like a mannequin for me to draw clothes I really like aesthetically. so I really have a lot of fun drawing her ^_^ you can tell by how much I do it LOL

So my number 1 advice in conceptualizing ocs is to make things fun for yourself. Are your favorite charaxters always mad scientists.. you can make one. Do you think rubber aprons are hot. You can give them one. Have you been struggling with your gender identity. You can make your oc a girl with he him probouns. Do you wish columbo was a lesbian.. you can make it happen.

As for development, as soon as I got the basic deets for casey and her role in the story I had for her to paper I found one of those tumbrl oc ask games and just filled out every single question for her. A lot of stuff was made up on the spot but just felt right and most often stuck that way but there’s no shame in making little changes as your oc grows on you and you get better aquatinted with eachother. For example I had the idea initially casey would have rich/well off and well meaning parents who were extremely normal and loved her a lot and it would be kind of a meet the robinsons “THEY ALL HATED ME” dynamic. But I quickly changed it as I thought more about casey because what I have with her and spider feels more.. fitting.

It also helps a ton if you have a friend willing to lend an ear :) and I don’t mean just 50+ messages discord chats (because those are extremely enlightening too) but I mean just posting and posting and posting about your little guy and getting those precious 4 likes on your lore document. I always take this sort of approach with original stuff LOL IF I POST ABOUT CASEY LIKE A LUNATIC FOREVER EVENTUALLY ILL TRICK EVERYONE INTO THINKING THEYRE CASEY FANS…!!!

Sorry for the rambly answer! I hope I was able to say at least 1 crumb of helpfulness

I agree with that anon

Because why would they overhype an event just to end permanently?

This is clearly a reset, the creators are just ending their lore before the event. 😭

SORRY FOR THE DELAY ANON TUMBRL HATES ME 😭😭😭

I feel this too, like, for me it still feels like a reset/hiatus or some something like this, like if this was the TRUE end END idk quackity would have said something and he also seems happy not Sad? Im assuming we will have a hiatus for some time until everthing gets fixed and the qsmp returns with a big reset :>

update on my throat:

I took about 4 medicines including a grainy one and I already hate that consistency

I've got a cold and my room is full of handkerchiefs (If it's written like that I have no idea)

I have a headache

and if I sneeze I start coughing

End of update

I CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMMOROWWWW AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LIKE I WILL BE SPAM RECHARGING MY TUMBRL SJJSJSKAKKA AAAAAA

Nooo colds are the worst 😭 I mean, being sick in general sucks but there's just something about having a cold that pisses me off so bad.

Hehe yeah, chapter 18 is a good one, I'll say. It's definitely up there on my list of favorite chapters.
