#damn I yap a lot don't I

[manuellarts]

i appreciate the answer to my previous ask, thanks! another user asked about how you think deidara would be like when it comes to love (sadly beaten to the punch) so i have to ask about what you think in regards to the other half of the art duo. do you think it's even possible considering? what would make him even consider another person being worth the risk?

also, in your head, how often do you think the art duo spend talking about art? what other topics do you think they've discussed before? do you think in a situation outside of the akatsuki they would hang out?

Hello ! Once again, I cannot speak of Sasori without speaking of Deidara, so I take this as an opportunity to go more in depth in regards to Deidara too

Starting with catching feelings:

For Deidara, I think he might go a while not realizing how he feels, because of how foreign those feelings are, especially in the world of shinobi. And to think that anything could ever come close to what he feels towards his art is simply inconceivable, because it was always him and his art. The way it would happen would be like a lightning strike, or even an explosion ( no pun intended ) and he would probably have a tendency to idealize the person he crushed on to an extreme.

When it comes to Sasori, I don't think there would be any such strong feelings at all. A person might catch his interest, for a reason or another ( it has to be some reason that directly relates to him. Immortality? Art? Something like that. ) once he catches interest, he'd probably spend a long time observing said person, perhaps from afar. ( uhh, stalking ? ) and he'd probably know that person more than this person knows themselves. But like I mentioned earlier, all of this involves risk. So he'd keep himself at a distance.

That being said, I believe both of them have issues of avoidance for different reasons.

I believe Deidara has an inner fear of vulnerability, so his way of avoiding to be vulnerable is by idolizing his partner, and putting them on a pedestal, admiring and throwing attention freely, like a work of art, subconsciously creating distance between them and his heart, which is fragile and easily breaks, like his clay statues.

Sasori's avoidance is clearly due to his experience, and consequent inability to form such attachments, not only by fear of it repeating but also because romantic feelings are foreign to him as well. Much like Deidara, he would shield his heart, although it is exposed ( no pun intended 2.0 ), by keeping that person at a distance. How to achieve that ? Persistent testing, snide remarks, harsh comments, all meant to test the other person's feelings for him ( because of course, feelings not being returned is not an option..)

A little parentheses here: evidently, neither of them have a healthy way of feeling or expressing, to an extent, although sasori is arguably much worse in that regard.

Now, returning to the way of loving, at first Deidara would put his partner on a pedestal and love bomb ( no pun intended 3.0 ) maybe even to a suffocating extent. He would probably not even see an issue with his behavior unless pointed out. And with the same tendency of wanting to blow up his sculptures, he'd want to cause the same thing in his partner regarding feelings. Anger, love, it doesn't matter, so long as it explodes. The more such explosions happen, the more consequent love he'll feel. If things are too stagnant, he'll lose interest pretty quickly.

Sasori on the other hand cannot get rid of his desire to possess whatever catches his eye. It is the only way for him to appreciate something fully. How this translates is evident. He wouldn't see a person as an object, per se, but he would be possessive and territorial over them. Sasori is probably a red flag in himself . . That much is clear. If he gets to love someone like that, I don't think he'd have very healthy ways of dealing with things, the same way he turned to mass murder following the trauma he's gone through. As a puppet master, he is used to controlling and orchestrating things the way be envisions them, and this would carry on in a relationship. He would want to possess, control, and manipulate everything about it. But much like Deidara, if he is able to achieve that fast enough, he'd lose interest quickly. Unless someone can see past his manipulation and constant venomous stings, I don't think he would be a great partner on the long run for someone's sanity . . . Someone would probably need to be insane enough not to fall into all the subsequent pain this would cause. In that way, Sasori's feelings would probably grow over a long period of time, and that is only if he judges it worthwhile. After all, there is a great risk in this game of love: losing.

That being said, Deidara cannot take losing for an option either, though I imagine his behaviors to be much more dependent, dramatic, and erratic. Evidently, he too would be territorial and jealous, but not in the same silent, creepy way as Sasori's, who would by the way, give silent treatments and cold shoulders as a result of jealousy. ( Don't count on him to communicate directly. ) Deidara on the other hand would be pretty vocal about things, in a very dramatic display. The same way he puts his partner on a pedestal, he would want to be put on a pedestal too, and be their number one priority.

I'll stop here regarding love as to not make this endless LOL and get on to the rest ( feel free to ask more specific questions later ! )

So for the last part,

Perhaps under different circumstances, they would indeed hang out outside of the akatsuki. I think that despite how much they bicker over art, I don't believe Deidara to be fully incapable of depth. He has shown himself to be very superficial, but I don't think that means he would be limited to art topics, although that would be his main interest. If anything, he'd probably listen to Sasori talking a lot, regardless of the topic, because he admires him and thinks highly of him. The same can't be said about Sasori . . I think he'd probably listen until his patience runs out (pretty fast lol) and be unable to resist the urge to correct Deidara's childish perspectives on things. He would however try not to shut him down completely. He himself, is the result of that. Deidara has a fire in him that he doesn't wish to extinguish just like that.

I'd think that they talk about art a lot and the initial topics often shift to other things ( mainly because of Deidara and jumping from one thing to another very fast ) which might be philosophical in nature most of the time !

Behind The OC Name

Thank you @kaitaiga @alypink @welldonekhushi @revnah1406 for the tag! Let's do this!

OKAY. I'm gonna turn into a bachelor of yappology here so bear with me ☝️🤓

🌹 Charlotte 'Jade' Le Jardin 🌹

Initially, I wanted to name her 'Roxanne'. Some of you might know this, but Jade used to be my original story's main character called Louisa. BUT, Louisa's initial name was Roxanne. I didn't know why, but elementary school me liked Roxanne so much (I didn't even know that it's also a song title by The Police back then HAHAH). I wanted a very recognizable name, but I think it was a bit much, so I switched to Charlotte because of Charlotte Bronte, the writer. Also, it turns out that 'Charlotte' means 'free man', it's pretty cool since Jade's story is mainly about breaking free from MI6's influence and shackles along with her parents. Meanwhile, Le Jardin was the result of Jade's family's occupation as a florist. I mean, it's a fake last name anyway as they were making an entirely new identity after escaping from MI6.

Jade was literally just because she had a green eyes, but I felt it's too cliche so I made an entirely new black division of MI6 where each agent is named of a type of ore/jewel. Plus, Jade is just easy to pronounce and recognizable, perfect for communication purpose!

🐞 Eleanor 'Ladybug' Graham 🐞

Eleanor's name came up just out of the blue from my mind. I drew Lady's design first, and then decided to make a name for her, and it's either Eleanor or Claudia, and I thought Claudia doesn't suit her at all, so I stayed with Eleanor. Eleanor means 'Light-hearted' or 'shining light', kind of goes along with her 'take-it-easy' attitude and how she's a medic and becomes the light of hope for the wounded. The surname Graham is literally just my obsession with Will Graham from Hannibal. My 14-16 year old ahh was obsessed with NBC Hannibal, and Will held a special place in my heart LOL.

When I created Ladybug, I knew I wanted a special and a cheeky callsign for her to pair with Gaz. I never really liked bugs, but I thought back then that a ladybug's shape and pattern is so damn cute and endearingly silly. So I just went with Ladybug. AND THEN, The NFC Championship 2023 game happened between 49ers vs Lions. Brandon Aiyuk caught a pass from Brock Purdy after the ball straight up bounced from Kindle Vildor's helmet, which resulted in a touchdown in the next play. At the interview post game, Aiyuk said "a ladybug landed on my shoe." JUST THEN I KNEW THAT LADYBUG MEANS 'GOOD LUCK'. And then the gears on my brain turned, and I can connect with how Gaz is always unfortunately hanging/falling from an aircraft, be it an airplane or a helicopter. The fact that he's always came out ALIVE after those events just tell me, there's gotta be a ladybug that's always with him 24/7!

🔥 Barandos 'Bara' Tarigan 🔥

For Bara, I just KNOW that his name's gotta be Bara because there's a celebrity chef from Indonesia called Bara Patirajawane, and it's such a sick name that I just had to make it into a name of my OC HAHAH. Bara also means 'fire embers' and it's pretty cool ngl. Tarigan is a Batak tribe surname (I'm half Batak from my name), so I just wanna have that element on my OC.

⏳ Silja Freyrsdottir ⏳

For Silja, I actually had quite a hardtime to name my OC. I didn't know what her appeareance yet, her story yet, and like what her role was in the God of War Ragnarok storyline. So I started to think of what goddess she was, and I wanted it to be close to Heimdall, so the Goddess of Memory and Remembrance it was. I then searched for that kind of god in the Norse mythology, and I didn't really find anyone that came close to what I imagined, so I just started from sratch. I sketched her character, and as I draw her I make up a story in my mind. Oh, she's an adventurer, a rogue princess, hmmm from what realm, Alfheim? Let's do that cuz I love Freyr. I wanted her name to be either 'Silja' which ironically means 'blind', or Ragnhild, which means 'battlecounsel'. QUICKLY I feel that Ragnhild sounded to professional for her adventurous character. Silja sounded so right, and her name could be like a contradiction to what her ability is, which is seeing people's pasts, but blind to the present (a flaw much like Heimdall's).

Tagging YOU 🫵 Reblog this with your OC's name lore!

[repurposedmeatlocker]

If you had to eradicate one B&BH ship from existence, which one would it be?

UMMMMM probably Butt-Head x Daria 🫣

I guess whatever floats your boat. I'm in no position to judge in regards to fictional ships. There isn't anything inherently WRONG with it, but I just find it EXTREMELY out of character on both ends. Daria doesn't give af about Butt-Head or Beavis. At most she tolerates them or sees them doing bullshit like "woah! That's crazy guys. Get well soon!" Butt-Head is much the same. At no point in the run of the show do I see a smidge of chemistry between them that would suggest something romantic. When it comes to indulging in fan content for things like this, I tend to have a preference for sticking somewhat close to canon. I just can't see it as something that works whereas something like Butt-Head and Beavis is implied enough in the show as a joke to build off a legitimate interpretation.

Currently in my break up era guys, what's a faggot to do in a time like this? I'm taking suggestions

[sentientcitrus]

Last night.

Last night I dreamt. I dreamt about a girl while Kirby's Dreamland 3 intro was playing in the backround.

I don't know who or what she was, but she seemed like a really nice person.

So, I wanted to draw what I remember from her, while experimenting with a new brush I found.

[cephaloph0re]

we're going back to the first thanksgiving

everyone lets do this ok? play touys

[1o1percentmilk]

i think the only relationship i could actually be in is one where we almost never talk to each other but we still just. exist in the same space and have an agreement that we're just existing together without the obligation to do anything together if at all. because i really want someone there but i can't handle the burden of caring for someone and i can't handle the stress of reacting the right ways that people want me to. i need a place where i can come back to every night after work where im not expected to act any way at all and i think even the most supportive loving person will stress me out, so i need someone who understands that need for space

either that or polyamory where im the guy on the side

[muqingslover]

[ This is different than what I usually post but I had to get this out of my system. The new DMC show brought back so many memories and idc what the haters say it's PEAK.

Anyway, to the DMC lovers out there, please accept this humble offering ]

Being in a relationship with Dante. | some NSFW included.

⊹— He may be the best demon hunter but in a relationship? He's the BIGGEST loser. Dante is always throwing some lame pick-up line your way and believe me when I say he will not give up until one sticks. (Spoiler warning: The fact that it actually works only makes him want to do it again)

—⊹ Dating Dante is not for the faint hearted. You have to be ready for all kinds of beyond ridiculous situations and have a godly amount of adaptability.

⊹— He will ALWAYS answer the phone for you. Literally. It doesn't matter what he's doing or where he is he will pick up the second he sees your name on the screen.

"Babe? Oh yeah! I'm totally still up for dinner! By the way, can you add those pieces of chocolate again to— *Approaching yelling in the background* Just a sec! *Crashing sounds and gunshots* Whew, okay, anyway like I was saying—"

—⊹ Oh yeah, he loooooves using pet names and silly nicknames. His personal favorites are "Babe" and "My little luck charm".

⊹— He likes to give you "traditional" dating gifts because that's what he always saw others do so when he shows up with a big ass teddy bear and a box of chocolates (which by the way he definitely ate some before giving it to you) please tell him you love it.

—⊹ Bro is so competitive. Dante is NOT letting you win in card games or any other board games because he wants to show off his skills to you. Though, if you get genuinely upset he would feel bad and invite you to play video games with him because he fails miserably at them every time.

⊹— His hands grab your ass every time you hug him. Not even in a sexual way he just can't help it and he never fails to throw a "nice ass" right after.

—⊹ Missing jewelry, hat or belt from your closet? He's the culprit. This guy will wear anything as long as he believes he looks good in it. I pray for you if you guys are a similar size because then you will have full clothing pieces missing.

⊹— He is THE hype man. Dante kisses the ground you walk on and he supports your rights and rights (because you could never do any wrong ;)).

—⊹ Dante's favorite thing is to show you off in every opportunity he gets. And if he doesn't have the opportunity then he'll just do it anyway. He is constantly yapping about how incredibly hot his partner is, how good your cooking is, how cute you look when you're focused and the way you smell so damn good all the time like, man! You're a freaking gift from the gods! (someone save poor Lady she can't bear to listen to him any more)

⊹— Please also hype him back in return! He has the worst praise kink case I've ever seen. Each time he's praised he just doesn't know what to do with himself and despite the initial cocky attitude he is easy to overwhelm if you don't stop. The first time you praised him while patting his head or scratching his chin he got a hard-on and had to rush out with a poor excuse before you noticed it.

—⊹ There is nothing romantic about sharing a bed with him. It's an absolute nightmare. First of all, this guy is physically incapable of sleeping with his clothes on. He just can't do it. Dante used to sleep butt ass naked but then you convinced him to at least wear boxers. Next on the list of problems is the snoring— Like, it's so loud you thought there was a truck engine next to you instead of your boyfriend. Not to mention the fact he takes up all space on the bed and moves around SO MUCH while he's asleep.

Please invest in separate beds before you kill him.

⊹— Absolutely hates morning. Getting him out of bed is the hardest thing to do and that's saying a lot with the life you two lead. He will keep you trapped in bed with him by wrapping his strong arms around your waist only to when you get up he sloooowly slides off the mattress and onto floor like a worm hanging to you.

—⊹ Surprisingly, or not, very insecure. This man is not controlling in any way though, he is just very worried that he won't be able to protect you if something was to happen or that you will realize you made a mistake by being with him.

⊹— His favorite thing is to make you smile. I know a lot of people paint him as stupid but I genuinely think he just acts silly as a defense mechanism. It's a mask. With you, though? He will purposely act like a dork because he knows it makes you smile.

—⊹ To add to that, Dante does everything he can to keep your spirits up; Someone hurt your feelings? No need to fret, he’s already planning their downfall. Feeling under the weather? tickle monster time! Migraine? He is closing the curtains and cuddling you until it gets better!

⊹— The filter between his brain and mouth is naturally bad but with you, who he is truly comfortable with, it's just INEXISTENT. This may range from random, useless bullshit to out of pocket comments that should definitely not be said out loud.

—⊹ Physical contact is his thing. I mean, he NEEDS it and can be very high maintenance about it. Having his hands on you is not enough for Dante he has to be as close as physically possible and you need to be giving him some kind of attention in return.

⊹— Hugging you from behind when you're cooking, snuggling while on the couch together, keeping a firm arm hooked around your waist while outside, constantly nuzzling his nose on your hair, kissing your neck at every chance he gets, pulling you into his lap as if it's his second nature ECT.

—⊹ Did I mention he adores your hair? In particular long hair because then he can fidget with it by twirling it around his finger or by being a dork and putting it between his lips and nose to make a mustache.

⊹— Your lips are like a drug to him. He will be saying "okay, okay I REALLY gotta bail now" and then stare at you for a solid two seconds then steal another kiss and another and another....oops, he's 30 minutes late already.

—⊹ Dante is a biter. God help you when you give him cuteness aggression (which is basically always) because he will chew on you like candy. Your skin is often red from teeth marks and he doesn't feel sorry about it at all.

⊹— Cannot cook to save his life but absolutely loves your food. Especially if you're good at baking! Man's scarfing down those sweet treats like it's his last meal on earth.

—⊹ He sings while he's showering and holds the bottle of shampoo to you like a microphone so you'll join him. Oh and yes, he is VERY tone-deaf.

⊹— No matter how many times he sees you naked he never gets tired of that blessed sight. He flirts with you like it's the first time he's seeing you and those naughty eyes speak for themselves.

—⊹ He has a high libido, especially in the beginning of the relationship where he's even more excitable than usual. Sex can be very clumsy and messy with him, but that's just what makes it so him.

⊹— If you're a breasty lady, he is reaaaaaally into you using your boobs to get him off. Dante also enjoys having your lips around his cock more than words could describe and a quickie in dark, tight spaces is part of the package with him.

—⊹ Bondage is a guilty pleasure of his. Dante prefers to be the one restrained and left at your mercy instead of the other way around because it's just very hot to him when you take control. You're also the only one he would trust to be this vulnerable with.

⊹— This guy is always late for EVERYTHING, but he shows up without a fail in the end. No matter how battered or tired he might be, not even if he was run over by a truck, he will definitely be there.

Boooop💖‼️

«What an odd creature...»

Cuts + a version where I messed with the contrast. I like both!

I had to do it!!! The silly dragon was ADORABLE! Also, congratulations for hitting 1.5K followers, @ckalaveram!

SpeedPaint + explaining the process down below! He's fixing it's glasses!!!

I had SOOO many difficulties because of the pose AND the face. It didn't look like Damian at all! First, I tried to paint in color because it had been ages since I last painted with color directly, and no, I no longer can. Had to pass to grayscale because it looked sooo bad 😭‼️

Then the face, it JUST didn't look right so I erased it and re started, but even so it just didn't look right. I did the pose again and again in real life because I was like: maybe it's just the pose. And I mean, it could be done, but it was a little awkward, especially when I wanted him to rest his cheek in his arm. So I erased the head and started again.

He looked a little eepy then, which I liked but idk, at the same time it didn't look right. Again. So I changed the eyes and the eyebrow and he looked more grumpy. Then I was like: it looks more like him, but the head just doesn't look like it should. Something's off. So I moved the head back, added more cheeks, and his upper lip because it'd be visible in that pose. AND IT FINALLY LOOKED RIGHT!!!

Then the silly dragon...

It looked too big! So I made it smaller. Then the head looked off, so I re did it. But then I had the idea of making it look 2D! And well, I don't think it looks 2D, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

If you're wondering, the whole process took me 4 hours and 41 minutes! But that was between days, so it took me three days!

Anyway, if you read all this DAMN, you must like reading because this was a lot of yapping. Congrats again for 1.5K!!!

Yandere date everything?! Imagine male reader is content with being single then suddenly everything in the house is a person and is CRAZY yandere for the reader but all he's thinking is how tf is he going to do laundry or work😭 bruh is thinking of moving into a new house but. NEWS FLASH they won't let him.

This is y/n rn.

Cause y/n was content on being single as he had a lot of hobbies and a good job until those damn glasses came into his life and now he has to ignore the fact that now his objects can talk and want him, down bad.

Yandere date everything: "I use to have hoop dreams until I found out there's other ways to score" *looks at y/n*

Like y/n now knows that his computer like him a bit to much and he needs to use the computer and tries to ignore that Mac knows he does online shopping and what he likes and basically every tab y/n has. It's worse that y/m knows he sits on a conscious chair and he can't sleep normal anymore without knowing that he sleeps on a bed woman named Betty.

Y/n thinks the Hanks are alright. They are fun to talk to but Hank 3 wants y/n's pants and y/n has to ignore that part cause he doesn't know why everything in his fucking house wants him so bad and even the water surprised him because what do you mean the water who's name is river loves to run over his body like what!? It's worse with the fucking toilet, Jean Loo Pissoir and y/n has to man up just to use the restroom and hates hearing this guys say "business or pleasure?" (That's a real line this guy says. I'm not joking) And y/n wondered if he could move to a new house and throw the glasses in a box and forget they exist and even the mirror as well as he knows that it can look back at him as well.

Then the sassy twink cat boy clock named Timothy is another can of worms that y/n doesn't want to open because of how weird it is, as if this experience with these damn glasses wasn't something that y/n wanted to experience but here he is. Y/n wants to move to a new house but can't because it's so expensive too and that teddy is probably the only one who's keeping y/n from leaving the house out right and crashing out at one of his friends houses. Dorian bascially treats everyone like a vampire who needs permission to come in even if they are family or friends and y/n has to force Dorian to let them in because if not then Dorian is not letting anyone in or out at all.

Then the nightmare that literally flirts with him every time y/n decides to drink coffee that night. Y/n just has to pretend to ignore them because he just wants to get a goodnight sleep but in this house is impossible to him and it's not like y/n can take a vacation away because once he did that and wasn't allowed outside the house for a week and Mac didn't like y/n get on the Internet so that was torture.

(that's it for my little yap session I had! If you like it please don't be shy and request any ideas for stories or y/n's you have! But for now please stay safe and drink water!)
