Merry Christmas in April?!

I didn't mean to hold out on this special art and story I commissioned from @bumblingbabooshka back in December! Vorik and his wife, Starrah (RP'd by @fyr-rphub) -- and their new baby T'Vin!! -- are my favorite lower deckers of U.S.S. Voyager ♡

I don't want to mess with formatting so you can read the very adorable accompanying story shared here:

Plus bonus sketches. Oh Vorik you look so serious<33

Creative Journey of Expecting Art | Inside a vibrant art studio, a creative soul finds inspiration in the unexpected. With eight months of pregnancy adding an intriguing twist to his artistry, this individual passionately brings a unique vision to life. Clad in overalls, he feels the comforting weight of his baby bump pressing against the easel as he paints a portrait that tells their shared story. The atmosphere buzzes with artistic energy while their hands brush together, momentarily coated in splashes of color. Each stroke on the canvas signifies not just the creation of art, but the boundless love and connection between them. The scene blends intimacy with innovation, showcasing how art can flourish amid life's most extraordinary journeys. It's a captivating exploration where creativity meets anticipation, allowing both love and talent to shine bright. More images are also available at https://mpregstuff.com.

A vital part of political knowledge (and knowledge in general) is knowing when to say, "I'm not educated enough to make a statement about this topic."

It's okay if you don't know every little detail of every single issue at hand. But it won't help if you refuse to acknowledge where you lack information, where your blindspots are, and what you just don't understand. It's okay to not have an answer.

The Plague Rose (Collaborative Zine)

This zine is focused on the traditional nursery rhyme "Ring a Ring o' Roses". It is an artistic reimagination of the Black Plague where the rhyme is rumoured to originate from.

The zine features an intense black and red colour palette, a design choice that came later on in the process. The red represents the roses and poppies of the rhyme, but is more often associated with blood. The black quite literally represents the "Black" Plague, but is also often associated with mystery.

honestly every time we’ve read the “rules” for a “closed species” it just comes across as the most egotistical “you’re not playing my game right” like childhood sandbox shit. you’re not allowed to give it a tail this length or ears like this and you can’t refer to it in these ways or change it in ways not approved by me and that side of the sandbox is for the ELVES and this side is for the FAIRIES and NO you can’t play here if you wanna be a elf-fairy this is MY sandbox you have to play MY way and also if you want to play here you have to give me 500 dollars and if you don’t and i find out you have elves and fairies in your sandbox i will get all my friends to blacklist you and harass you off the internet

downloaded the five calls app just now. for those who don't know what that is, its an app that lists current bills being discussed in congress, provides phone numbers for each congress person representing you/your area, and a script for what to say once you're on the phone.

im nervous about calling people, so i will probably make a phone call after hours to ensure i don't need to speak to a human.

Extremely distressing that I absolutely cannot react to this work email with “I’m going to kill my self for real” because that’s the only way I can think to express myself to my coworkers who also got it

Zero Day (2002)

I have a question if you guys are okay answering! How do your individual styles differ? Like, do you both prefer to write/draw in different styles, and have there ever been any creative disagreements?

Totally fine to ask! We both have the same style with different very subtle nuances most people won't be able to detect. I'd compare it to two different animation studios hired to work on the same tv show. We aim to look like one consistent style and we're pretty successful with getting that across I think!

The biggest difference between our art styles is something most people won't ever get to see, and it's that Cin sketches very lightly (to the point of having to duplicate the sketch layer multiple times before it becomes legible) and Jes sketches like you're trying to murder the paper with a pencil.

For writing, our voices are pretty similar honestly! I don't think anyone here has noticed whenever a comic is written by one twin or is a chimera-style mix of both of us collaborating. While we can disagree, we both want to make the best story possible so we either compromise or explain how taking a story a certain direction is for the best. And then we agree lol

Uni AU where professor Price teaches this weird niche elective something 141 

There are four people in the roster of this class, (one of them is always absent to the point they’re not entirely sure if he’s in this class) cough Roach cough 

But after a while people who aren’t even in the class start showing up because of the stories told about this weird elective and the students in it. I could elaborate, but first, I need to know, what is the elective 👁️

The sequel to this idea will be called whatever we choose 142.

The third level of this elective? 241. 

Yes the entire basis of this AU was was just the fact that 141 sounds like a uni class number.

Collaboration with Lisa Chun in progress.

thinking about the creative collaboration between jesters and monks hypothesized for the production of the chansons de geste

Have you ever written any collaborative fanfic with another author? I think you'd be incredibly fun to work with!

I have indeed, though right now it's mostly just bits and pieces of an AU. Me and @bubblesthemonsterartist both write this Concubine AU series, which was originally inspired by @onedivinemisfit 's artwork. Though half the time I feel like that's cheating because part of both mine and Joanna's writing process is "yell in DMs at each other until it's kinda like an outline" and then go off and write. Only this time we wrote different parts of the same thing instead of different things entirely 🤣I did something similar with both the Obi-Works-For-Izana AU with @krispy-kream, and then also the Shirayuki Sedai AU with both Sharon and @claudeng80.

Otherwise I don't think I've done a typical author collaboration-- An Economy of Suffering was just a happy accident, where I wrote something that haunted Joanna so much she had to write a fic, and then those haunted @another-miracle so much SHE had to write her OWN fic, and then we put them all together on AO3.
