i say i like tragedies and everyone’s all like ‘why do you like sad stories? are you depressed?’ and never ‘how was the catharsis? was the catharsis fun?’

#i don’t know how to explain this to normal people 😭😭#for the record my coworkers didn’t directly question me on this #but i think i have vastly overestimated the amount of the population who is aware of like. Films.#NOT claiming that i have seen a lot - but i’ve mentioned three *REALLY* well-known films in the past four days #and got blank stares each time #the one of them was a REALLY good reference too… someday my top-notch association skills will be recognized #my first act as Mansion Acquaintance of the [redacted] Director will be to force everyone to watch a 40s romcom i didn’t even like #i’m getting off the point #the POINT is that It’s About The Catharsis

Silco SO should've haunted the narrative in s2 I can't stress this enough. Like, we knew Vander, Mylo and Claggor only for 3 episodes, but their presence was felt aaaall throughout s1. And now you're telling me that a PRIMARY ANTAGONIST of s1, a leader of Zaun, Jinx's dad and The person who started the negotiations with Piltover for Zaun's independence only got a couple of mentions?? Which aren't even relevant to the plot or character motivations??? Are you LEGIT FOR REAL kidding me???? I still can't believe this happened chat.

He's literally a part of the main cast. He literally was present in every single episode of s1. And again, given just How Much was tied directly to him his death should've had just. Massive consequences. For almost every single character. And yet.

My honest reaction to this information:

#i'm obv not talking about fights for power in the undercity because they couldn't have possibly skipped through this part. i'm talking about #Literally Everything Else. he should've been there. he should've haunted the narrative like he's still alive.#first and foremost i'm ofc talking about fishbones because. yeah. i'm actually preparing a post about it so *wink*#sigh i'm so angryyyyyyy. not only because i'm a silco fan but because i like good writing and haunting the narrative is one of my favorite #tropes. and it was SO well executed in s1 and i just. what stopped you from doing it again????#and you had a great reference too???? i just don't get i genuinely don't #arcane critical #arcane season 2 #silco arcane #silco #arcane #side note: ugh it's so satisfying so use these gifs i can't

PJSK HAS A WEIRDLY LOW NUMBER OF ACTUALLY WINTERY SETS... like 3. kind of.#i have some thumbnail sketches but im kind of stumped on composition for them. my idea was a nene focus set #(IF HER NEXT FOCUS ISNT PHANTOM OF THE OPERA THEMED INWILL DIE. BADLY. THEYRE GOING TO AN OPER AHOUSE. PLEADBR)#originally my idea was for nene to be biting a medal i was very sold on it bc i love nenes competitive side #however her outfit is so nice i want it to also be part of the art .. its heavily inspired by that one iconic eunsoo lim dress #from her somewhere in time program iirc. im really undatisfied with emus dress tbh my origimal idea was to give it a phoenix look #but a lot of the firebird/phoenix skating programs have very sleek dresses and i want emus to be fluffy. the balance is hard ..#and since i want her program song to be once upon a dream from sleeping beauty i swerved to make it look a bit like auroras ? but again #it definitely feels like the weakest of everybodys ... maybe i just love her too much and want her to look the best. sorry wxs.#tsukasas outfit is supposed to look like a shooting star. easy. program music moonlight sonata 3rd movement like from dazzling light. easy.#actually i like takahashi daisukes moonlight sonata program its a medley of the 1st and 3rd movement.. i think the calm at the beginning #is best. maybe smth like that.. for his card inhad him doing a haircutter spin but again. the outfits good i want the outfit visible. damn.#ruis the one im very set on even now. girl why are you so phantom of the opera.#it has a lot of beautiful programs to reference but the outfit i didnt really have any solid reference i kind of just balled #my main idea was to make it look a bit like both christine and the phantom.... gender Fluid.#my yapfest... i should be SEWING!!!!!!!!#despite my yapping im not that well versed in figure skating i cant really distinguish jumps i just like it . and medalist #i only do normal skating. bc i played hockey for like 7 years LOLLLL inlove skating though Heart.

Oh gosh, how many humans are there?!

Bug Fact: The Giant Malaysian Leaf Insect are mostly female and reproduce asexually. The first wild male of this species was not found until 1994! Pictures Below.

▴♥︎▴ Patreon ▴♥︎▴ Buy Me A Coffee ▴♥︎▴

A,B,C and E are all males, they have visible and functional wings. D is a female and has no wings. Photo Source and Research Paper with more photos

They even have separate sub-species that have different leaf decay!!

#OMG HUMAN REVEAL #Or at least Sam's mom (Dewi's Aunt) reveal. Dewi's dad is still pretty mysterious >:) hehe #House REVEAL #This is super duper niche BUT.... Dewi saying he's looking for newts is a reference to the movie ''Matilda''. Because I love that movie #and it has influenced my interests!#I learned way too much about the leaf bug and I kind of love it so so much now. I hope they thrive forever #ohhh its raining. Time to put on your rain poncho!#Also I mayyyy change the update schedule to 3 pages a week. I need to catch up and the holidays always slow my art! For good reasons :)#Dewi's Adventures in Hollow Knight #Dewi's Adventures in Hollow Knight V2 #hollow knight humans #hornet hollow knight #ghost hollow knight #my art #dewi #comic #hollow knight au #Lilybug Comics #art #Hollow Knight #hollow knight fanart #hk fanart #hollow knight comic #hollow knight art #hk art #hk au

Reblogging this drawing with the Timelapse because I finally figured out how to add those and I think it’s cool

Took me about 60 hours which is CRAZY,, I call this one The Quark Family when I’m talking about it (which seems apt) and I’ve literally crammed so many references and details and hours into this my life feels so empty without it. Tumblr is butchering the image quality but that’s just what it is ig,,, I’ve tried and I can’t seem to fix it

Progress shots and closeups under the cut (and a full list of the references and stuff I crammed in in the tags bc I have to know that they’re all noticed)

#we’re looking through their mirror btw in case that doesn’t come across #gonna be a lot of tags sorry for that #Some of these little details may be incredibly obv or not super subtle anyway but I wanna be thorough #the posters on the wall are the 2 ferengi tv shows boimler watches in ld #btwn them is nog’s old report card #he’s got a c- in history a b in bajoran an a+ in math (bc he’s good w engineering) and c’s in science and math #the note on the side says “nog is a great kid but he needs to do his homework -KO”#there’s nail polish everywhere bc obv #top shelf odo is hiding in a bottle spying on quark next to the rules of acquisition #middle shelf are quark’s action figures that moogie gave him #the yellow one is doing a sailor moon pose #ds9 snow globe and baseball cap next to baseball on last shelf bc they’re obsessed #there’s a baseball bat agains the chair too #the torn poster next to nog is a vic fontaine poster quark tore down bc he won’t advertise the enemy #the paper on the table is a spreadsheet detailing quark’s current purchase/sales on yamok sauce (yes ik they don’t use paper)#the cups/bottles are root beer raktajink and sluggo cola (from ld) respectively #on the shelf btwn quark and not there’s one of those golden ferengi busts quark prays to #next to it the three bottles are romulan ale kanar and bajoran spring wine respectively #the rug IS the trans flag in case you were wondering bc ds9 canonically has trans carpets it only makes sense #leeta has a bottle of prophets perfume #the eyeshadow pallete on the table in front of them is quark’s #the papers by that are profit assessments for the bar for the week #rom has a bottle of tooth polish #rom and nog are both wearing bajoran earrings bc leeta #now that I’m typing this all out I have so many other references and details that I wish I added in #quark #rom #leeta #nog #jake sisko

i feel like people are sleeping on the occam's razor situation of how buckwild it is to outright accuse a guy of being a clone of your friend even if you DO have a lot of circumstantial evidence. there's other options is what im saying. they could just be like. a guy. that's a sensible deduction. you should explore that deduction. ignore my shirt that reads I <3 RED HERRINGS.

i still think odile has the correct theory on lock but she's smart enough to know it needs like... a real smoking gun to be able to bring it up without sounding insane.

anyway. (mirabelle voice) i know its rude to speculate but has anyone else noticed the grieving? they seem to be grieving. does anyone have any thoughts on the grieving? i have some thoughts on the grieving.
