"Why would you do all of this for me even after all i did to you?!"
"Because i love you, the you that it's really behind all of it, the you that you fight not to show to the world but that i've seen before anyway"
Is such a raw line that i asure you, if it's present in a fic, not necessary letter by letter, but in sentiment, then that's a good fucking fic
Wheter platonic or romantic

Nya's design for my Scorched Au. Also this is my first time drawing Nya with her short hair so that's neat!
Nya's pretty important in this au. With Kai off doing his own thing, Nya ends up training to be a ninja/master of water WAY before she does so in canon since Wu thinks her abilities will be very useful. Which makes sense since you know, Kai is the master of fire. Having a master of water to deal with him would be pretty useful.
Although most of the time when fighting, Nya is trying her best to reason with Kai since she thinks if anyone can talk him down it's her. And while it's true that Nya's really the only one left that Kai cares about, he also sees the fact that Wu started training Nya as a way of replacing him which does not help his mindset at all.
Overall, it's complicated between these two. Obviously Nya doesn't like seeing all these places getting burnt down in Kai's path, but she also doesn't want to lose her brother. Meanwhile Kai doesn't want to hurt his sister, but he also wants to prove that he's good enough to be the Green Ninja so badly that he will burn down anything and anyone standing in his way.
Also bonus drawing of Kai seeing Nya as the water ninja for the first time:

Fig's line "I don't think I'm an artist, I think I'm just a good friend" has not left my head at all. Just...
You're Fig Faeth and your horns came in over the summer and you pick up the bard class as a form of adolescent rock 'n' roll rebellion, and it works! It's exactly the outlet you need! You give a guy you just met drumsticks and you start a band and it's good enough that within a year and a half you're touring. You are, in every sense, good at being a bard.
And then, finally, your junior year, you start to take it seriously. Your art goes from an outlet and a form of rebellion to a practice. A discipline. (Can rebellion exist within a discipline?) Your classmates know what they want to do with their work. They all have a thesis statement. And yeah, there's cohesion in the music you make, but you've never had to think about why you make it. You've never sat down and dissected what it is about bass that speaks to you. You've never poured over your lyrics to pick at any deeper meaning. Why should you? You don't play music for a grand design, you do it to... huh, why do you do it?
(Your art is the one form of self-expression that feels as safe as Disguise Self does, because even if you're pouring your heart onto the page and then screaming it in front of thousands of people, it's not like you're really making yourself known. You can sing I'm lonely, I'm scared, I'm furious, and your fans will sing it right back, and there will still be the distance between performer and audience to keep your heart safe.)
Now you're being asked to look inward to explain the artistic choices you're making, and you can't help but recoil at that, because you'd rather do anything than look inward. Meanwhile, your classmates have no problem with it, so you start to wonder if you're a real artist at all. Can your art be authentic if it only exists to bolster a thesis statement? Has your art been unauthentic this whole time because you've never really thought about a thesis statement before? Is that what makes it art, and not just the next track on somebody's teen angst playlist?
You can't think about yourself— acknowledging your own existence makes you want to puke. So if your music is an extension of yourself, (and it is, even if it's just because the spotlight reveals only what you want it to,) you can't think about your music. You can't. You have to. Your grade depends on it.
You're Fig Faeth, and you keep multiclassing because you'd rather be a good friend than a great artist. If introspection is what great art demands, then fuck it. You must not be a bard at all.

It’s been a minute but finally had time to do another Ghosts Tarot card—although this one isn’t technically a ghost!
I chose this card for Jay because I think it gets to some of my favorite parts of his character arc that we’ve seen so far. Despite being unable to see the ghosts, Jay is incredibly involved in the ghostly happenings of Woodstone, and he’s often a guide or sounding board for Sam as she deals with them. However, in season two we also got to see just how much the move from the city was impacting him. As involved and supportive as he is with all the ‘ghost things’, there’s still a level of separation even from those he shares his everyday life with. However, The Hermit is not just about solitude; it’s also about being in a time of personal change and new purpose, which we get to see as Jay starts building his own restaurant from the barn ground up. I think he perfectly represents that balance of the hermit card—even though at first glance it may seem like the card represents isolation, it’s really about being on your own journey of growth, a journey that’s only possible by withdrawing a bit from the outside world. I’ve really enjoyed how the show has highlighted that with Jay’s character so far, and I can’t wait to keep seeing this journey he’s on as the restaurant gets closer to opening!
Another reason I like this card for Jay? It totally looks like a powerful D&D character, something i imagine Jay would love. For that reason, I didn’t make a whole lot of design changes from the original Colman Smith card (which can be viewed here), although I did update the original’s lantern, and instead have Jay holding the Possession Sconce.
I’m hoping to get back to making more of these soon, but in the meantime, would love it if you checked out my other Ghosts Tarot card designs here!

So I currently have a week off work and decided i'll make a ""quick"" and ""simple"" visual novel/dating sim for my original character blorbos and I keep forgetting that it does, in fact, take time and effort to make something. I kid you not i am somehow surprised every time i go "oh i'll have that done in a week" and then it's like no this is something people usually take at least several months for.

ultrabright colors and gradation map my beloved
[Start ID. Three color variations of the same messy sketch on a white background. Each one depicts V1 from Ultrakill, in the same pose as the protagonist on the cover for Doom. They're standing on a pile of gore rather triumphantly and lifting a Husk with one arm, by where its collar would be. The original drawing was in bright red, yellow, and blue, and the two others are in much softer palettes, one shades of green and the other purple through yellow. End ID]
