Long overdue sketchbook scanning session: original concepts only edition haha. Noting some common themes I didn't notice while I was drawing: Hottie with their tits out. Skeletons. "Oh this person grew up religious huh 😐" vibes. Putting extra arms on things for no reason. TBH? Excellent. I have no regrets and will continue.

okay actually looked at the lover boy wip intro again and this has me crazy because the grief in this was meant to all be about bobby but "remember that his favourite fruit was peaches and try not to cry over it" got me because felix's favourite fruit being peaches is like. a recent but definitive part of his character. and i can't remember if i just used peaches as a placeholder for bobby's favourite fruit (he does not give peach to me) and if i first wrote this before or after i decided peaches were felix's BUT now i'm like. what if this passage is him grieving bobby but it spirals around his grief for his relationship with felix??? find a lover the way you found felix and don't lose him this time but also find a lover because you're trying to find a connection as deep as the one you had with your best friend even though you know it can never be replicated. you can never find a lover that will love you like bobby (platonic, to be clear) loved you. find a lover in the fact you are alive even though it makes you nauseous because it just reminds you that your best friend isn't. how do you grieve someone who's still alive whilst simultaneously grieve someone who isnt? trying to grieve two people in two different ways and you feel guilty at the way they blend and blur because it feels like you lose your separate grips on both of them and you don't feel like you have space in you to accommodate all this ache. and like what if i edited all this to make that parallel more clear?? that his primary grief is bobby because he's the one who's dead but he's also grieving felix and probably doesn't even realise it?? and then the two become blurred?? and if he realised this he would actually feel fucking awful about it and like a bad friend?? haha just kidding unless??

i'm finally alive enough that at least some of the creativity i once had is coming back, but i didn't really realize just how bad it had been and for how long. it's now 10 years since i had first started writing, and i was in rough shape even then, and i'm just now starting to get those same glimmers of inspiration again.

naturally, it exclusively happens while driving so i can't write any of it down lol

getting a bad grade in gender identity because i value self expression infinitely less than i value human connections

me: I’m fine

me, 10 seconds later: the Greywaren mind meld was sooo stupid and the worst part of it is that device Could have been implemented without it feeling like a total cop out if it was say, characters having an actual argument/conflict in some type of dream space, alternate version of reality each others memories etc. if we were actually tracking them through all that and not just “they were wanted…” as the resolution … the actuality of it was just lazy.

reading peer essays about diversity and shit and i feel so conflicted ugh

because the person is like "i like diversity but diversity needs to be on good merit they should be diverse because they bring their cultural impact and not just for the sake of it"

like sure i agree that when we include pocs or minorities they should have proper representation and be given the same respect and character development as their cis white male counterparts BUT why can't we have diverse characters for the sake of ittttt. why is the default character always white why do they get to be all over the story but diverse characters need to fight there way in.

why do we need to wait around for more diverse characters in the hopes that someone will do it right, i just want them to be there for of all

like why is white people and elves and orcs and dragons okay but suddenly black people is breaking the narrative?

i’m still not talking about the game i’m playing and obsessing over (sorry, one look at the fandom means it’s typically the type of games i don’t want to connect with people over unless they’re people i already trust) but i’m laughing so hard 

because, there’s one chara i was obsessing over so hard that when i found his figurine in the manga store i somewhat bought it right away while i was still very early in the game, and i knew people hates this chara because of something he did later in game (i’m calling, betrayal and murders) and i had vague spoilers about what his deal was about but i couldn’t completely put those spoilers back in context

so there was a moment of fear of, was buying the figurine a good idea? would i finish the game thinking his crimes are too much for me to bear? (i mean i do have figurines for characters i don’t really like so i doubt i would really resent the buy since it’s a pretty figurine, but yaknow?)

But now i’m at a point where, they didn’t reveal what his deal is yet, but i have most of the pieces to know more or less what his crime is, and most of all, he’s currently lying extremely blatantly to everyone while going very 😇 about it (lies i only can totally figure out because of the spoilers i know), and i’m absolutely hysterical because it actually makes him even more my type than he was at the start of the game where he just seemed cheeky yaknow?

i was told everywhere this character’s twist is enough to have people hate him and instead the more i’m building to the twist the more i’m absolutely hysterical because he’s taking all the steps to be an Ultimate Fav Of Mine by checking all the boxes for my dubious fav character type (Sweet Talker, Criminal, and Massive Hypocrite Liar). I’m living.

31 and 37 ^_^

sorry every time I do one of these oc ask memes it gets really long lol

31. Pick one OC of yours and explain what their tumblr blog would be like (what they reblog, layout, anything really)

This is so hard I’m trying to think of who would ever be on tumblr in any scenario. My only modern day teenager ocs would either not use any social media (grace + saida) or use tik tok + instagram + discord (melanie + tane). Maybe Angel I can see that happening. Not in the present day though, because to me he has to exist in the past him being in the modern day doesn’t feel right for his character. I think he’d be on it like 2010-2013. Running a naruto and vocaloid fan page. He wouldn’t really have any friends online? He’s pretty shy and I don’t think he’d view social media the same way he does real life, he’d want to get followers not make friends if that makes sense. Maybe he’d run like vocaloid-secret-confessions or bestvocaloidsongs or something. OR. Very in depth meta on death note or fullmetal alchemist or something. Either classic vocaloid or mainstream anime but not both, he’d focus on posting abt just one thing. 

37. Introduce an OC who is not quite human

Hmm there’s a lot of them that qualify for this (I really like it as a concept actually this was a good question to ask) so I’m gna list them and explain a little

Tane: First of all, he’s like the center of a multiverse type thing, so he has a lot of copies, some of which aren’t human at all instead being like a demon or something. Second of all, he’s technically not real, having been subconsciously manifested/summoned I guess into existence by Melanie’s psychic powers. Accidentally, she didn’t do it on purpose. He’s sentient and everything though, and usually has the physical qualities of a normal human, although this sometimes changes when under duress

Melanie: She is physically human but she has incredibly strong reality warping powers (that she doesn’t know about) 

Rocio (Inanna + Shamash + Yiming):All of these characters are wizards, who start out exactly the same as normal humans like anyone theoretically could do magic in this universe with enough time and study and resources. However, if you do it over a long enough period of time (we’re talking like decades it’s very gradual) it does modify your cellular structure or whatever in various ways, and it makes you age slower. As well as how your brain works like your neurons stop working and your consciousness becomes powered by magic instead. Lot of boring magic system stuff aha 😝. Rocio has actually only been doing magic for like 6 years so this hasn’t happened to her yet at all, she’s in this category because she almost turned into a constellation like she was THIS close but she didn’t but she kept like some of the omnipotent knowledge the gained in the process and it’s like things man was not meant to know type stuff. Also because she doesn’t have to eat or drink or breathe to live. It hasn’t happened to Inanna or Shamash either bc they accidentally cursed themselves to have like their physical state maintained perfectly forever (it’s been 80,000 years so far and they are completely insane) which also makes them not quite human. It is happening to Yiming though

Gabriel: He was turned into an omnipotent tree 😞

Daisy: They eventually get their consciousness uploaded into software and sadly the original dies 😞 so instead they inhabit like several robots at once. I think this still counts as partly human at least like they still have the same memories and personality they did when they were a human

Luke: Technically he’s dead. Like he’s fine but he did drown unfortunately. Does that count as not being human I think he’s sort of a separate thing due to being animated by magic + it like changed his appearance . By giving him blue anime hair and eyes he’s a magical girl basically who died by drowning but was reanimated in order to protect an undersea kingdom as part of a fairy tale. Yeah

Victor: In his universe, when you die you are reincarnated into like an underworld, but there’s not just one theres several like 800 roughly and when you die in one you go on to the next one like over and over. The only people who who go through this process are humans in the OG world (where the story takes place) so he is like, a human metaphysically speaking in this universe, and he was an actual human before he fucking died. After the first death you basically spawn in the second world the same way you were physically when you died (like age and size roughly) except you are instead a demon (in that they are considered to be scary + have like claws horns extra eyes things like that) and kind of a furry (furry in that they are usually based on one or two animals in appearance, but not just any animal it has to have some kind of a demonic/negative/deathly association like a goat or vulture or bat or something like that). So he himself is like a goat creature, but he also is human kind of. 

Mitchell: Originally he was a regular human, but he is subject to the corruption of a kinda lovecraftian. Bloodborneian. Entity that at first gives him visions of the future but later on like kinda drives him mad in the cosmic horror way sort of like he’s chill about it but it’s still an unpleasant experience sorry Mitchell

Adam: works for the United States government
