yet another reprise of the same post i’ve made dozens and dozens of times before but GEEZ! i am so incredibly lucky to be doing what i’m doing! to think i spend hours and hours and days and weeks and months and years and hopefully DECADES pouring over animation history, lauding the masters and studying their work so intently and absorbing it and feeling and identifying with it, and the fact that i get to walk the same turf they did. that i get to be a part of this business that they established. that i get to carry the torch and that, some day, no matter how small or insignificant, my own work and contributions will be regarded as “animation history” because i work in animation and all history is history. i just can’t believe that i’m privileged enough to indulge in some of the same practices that The Greats did, that i get to study their work and, if i’m so lucky, channel and make homages to it where possible.

this isn’t to say “i’m just like Tex Avery because i work in animation TOO!!!!”, but, rather, an expression of my sheer GRATITUDE and amazement that i get to do what i do at all. i’ve met so many nice people. blossomed so much as an artist and cartoonist. get inspired each day by the talent i am constantly surrounded by. and to think that i get to be a part of it!!!!! that i get to carry the torch! i know this sounds so conceited and pompous and i really don’t mean it that way at all because i don’t WANT to be known as someone who people are only interested in because i work in cartoons. i just wanna be known for me! what “me” is i guess is for you to decide! but, regardless, i’m just feeling extra thankful tonight that i’m able to indulge in my passions and SPREAD my passions and have said passions fostered. that i’m lucky enough to tread the same ground as some of the greatest creatives that gave me this ground to tread on. there will never be enough words to properly articulate just how deeply and passionately my gratitude extends.

Around the same time that incinerator breaks, Mephisto dreams of someone singing for him. At first I thought he’s just remembering things, but now I wonder if the implication is ghost!Frostnova visiting his dreams and singing that lullaby for him one last time?

Even though their relationship soured over the years and Frostnova hates the current Mephisto, they were quite close in the past. She still remembers that one time years ago when he tried to sing but couldn’t. She still remembers how years ago he couldn’t sleep and she would sing to ease his nightmares. At the end she doesn’t kill him because she knows living without Faust is the worst punishment for him.

Since she still cares about Talulah and wants her to be saved after all this time, maybe she hasn’t fully gotten rid of her attachment to Eno either. Maybe even after everything, she still doesn’t want to see that kid spending his last moments in despair.

Even though Mephisto became a monster (both in the moral and literal sense), even though he no longer remembered their bond, even though he no longer remembered her, she still came to visit him and sing that lullaby one last time. His last moments were full of pain, confusion and regret, but her lullaby would be there to keep him company.

Frostnova really is kind…

ok so for context, i havent been watching a lot of ls streams because Life Stuff right. and how i've been keeping up is through osmosis and. i watched jarons stream and i just can't help how. eerie it all feels. the way there's no commentary. the way there's only the sounds of a warden creeping below jaron, and you're just on the edge of your seat the entire time because you don't Know whats going on, but from what you've heard, it's not good. its like, found footage, in a way. the way the stream title didn't change and jaron being on 2 hearts just makes it. so eerie and tense

heres a rlly shitty 8 minute doodle comic of the kind of characterization i have for tord...............its rlly hard to explain but hes very just like????? out of it when talking to other esp when confronted with something against him he doesnt really know how to react and tenses up and does weird shit i dont really like the canon charcterization of tord being so calculated snarky and just straight up evil....i think u can do some stuff with it but at the end of the day its so easy to see through him and know what hes going to do because oh hes just that villain guy hes most likely gonna do some evil thing next uh oh watch out guys but yea my tord is just like...very socially inept and afraid of people...i dont think he'd actually want anyone dead besides in like. instrustive thoughts but he just wants things to go his way at any cost and most of the times has no idea how to get there so he'll just do crazy shit for no reason idk...........sorry for rambling i have so many thoughts on tord he is my character now im sorry hes everything to me

“Doubt comes in and my heart falters / and forgets the songs it sung” and “I used to see the way the world could be / but now the way it is is all I see” are two lyrics from two separate versions of the same song that achieve the same goal in me every time: fucking Destroy Me emotionally 💔

*grabbing mlm shippers by the shoulders* guys nobody needs to be the twink. nobody needs to be the sub. nobody needs to be the femboy. they can both be big fat hairy men who bask in each others masculinity or they can both be unspeakable monstrous creatures with inhuman genitalia it’s okay I’m holding your hand. Let me show you the way
