Hooray, another form rejection.

I can't do anything with that.

Good evening, tumblr-dot-com. You should all be informed that I have shown up to a party approximately four-five years postmortem and I am struggling to be normal about it.

Anyways here's some space pirates because I have now drawn them each at least once in the Simplified Style.

Don't pay attention to why everything is markedly different in quality, this is normal. And also I am scrabbling desperately for accurate impressions of characters and their dynamics please be nice

Oh yeah and here's a secret, bonus Gunpowder Tim from the same sketchbook page as the Nastya because I can assure you everything on that page has a similar tone (I was having a time)

13 and 20 for any of your ocs

Hi Potato!!!!

13. Do you have a voice claim for the character? What do you imagine the character sounds like?

YE OKAY so. Funny thig about this one. Despite having probably created a dang near 1000 characters over my life time, I think I have maybe... 4? voice claims??

sorry for the blurry quality of the images, all I have is 3D Paint to use on my works computer bleck

Firstly is my oldest OC ever, Sissy, who's singing voice only I have had claimed Hilary Duff since I was in middle school haha. But her actual talking voice? Not really - I've never had a voice for that. But this song, I Can't Wait, in particular has been both MY all time fav song on the planet, and Sissy's unofficial theme. Hung He and his twin Roku were the same, only their voice's sounded EXACTLY how it sounds in Bowling for Soup's rendition of the Bare Necessities. That one I still claim to this day haha. Roku is quieter/calmer tho.

Otherwise, another sonic OC, Boom, I voice claimed specifically as John Kim after watching The Librarians. I am uncertain if I still want that for Boom's human form in Neo Oldesville haha.

Finally! The ONLY character in all of Neo Oldesville to have a voice claim! The one! The only! The illustrious! Cy! It's currently Stephanie Young, especially from her rendition of General Armstrong from the FMA: Brotherhood anime. Very tough, strong, and no-nonsense.

Otherwiiiiiiise I have a few characters with pretty set voices in my head for them but not really everyone? I'd say the clearest one I have after these few is Ree Porter, who sounds basically exactly like those old early 1900s fast talking reporters on the radio that everyone likes to make fun of.

Weirdly enough I have nothing for the Terrances. lol.

20. Bonus question: share any additional thoughts, art, favourite scenes, anything you've been waiting for a chance to ramble about

IF I HAD THE ART I'D SHOW IT BUT IT'S ALL IN MY STUPID NOGIN AND IT WON'T COME OUT KAJFGKAFDJGAKDJFGADG

I've been having a ton of fun putting together Flint's newest friend, and [one of his] eventual protégé, Locke, and his BF...who has no name as of yet haha. I'm still trying to hammer down his design as what I currently have just has too many layers/is a bit too busy for me BUT JKADFGKADFG I LOVE IT STILL UGH.

Anyway Locke was heavily inspired off of Jake Marshall from the Ace Attorney games, and like his mentor/idol Flint, Locke also carries at least one fake gun on him at all times - in his case a fake flintlock gun that shoots out a cork attached to the end of it. Yes. I chose that gun specifically for the puns. I'm very quickly falling in love with this silly cactus man.

I also have an unfinished thumbnail outline for a comic from Flint's past I really wanna draw - but idk when that will happen at this rate pfffft. Mostly because I keep changing another character's storyline who shows up in the comic. But it's supposed to be the explaination as to why Flint has the oversized jacket he wears [which is SUPPOSED to be noticeably oversized haha I just...I just suck at drawing it baggy haha..ha....ughghhhhhh]

Also! Lotti is getting an updated design! Don't worry, I ain't changing a huge amount on her haha, mostly just again simplifying her outfit a bit and giving her a specific work uniform that better fits her job. I am also planning on removing her back wings as they just get in the way 90% of the time/even I tend to forget them. Her ears will remain wings tho cuz those are adorable <3 I think I still have the link to the outfit I was thinking of updating her dress to [but keeping her pink/white colors] around here somewhere... Here it is! Tho I might make it a bow tie..

Finally... @/saribrum thought up a hilarious Gravity Falls/Terrorcarnival crossover that I almost wanna draw stuff for hahaha. Our favorite part was the idea of Terrance just wandering the forests of GF in the dark, becoming some new terrifying cryptid for the town that Dipper and Mabel try to find, all the while just thinking to himself "WHERE THE FUCK AM I!?!!?!" and being horribly confused the entire time hahaha it was very funny.

ANYWAY A WIP I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN I'LL FINISH WHOO ✨

Six Sentence Sunday (and one emoji)

[Jamie]: Really? Did we have to make a new chat just for this?

[Isaac]: No, Dani's got the the right idea. We're dealing with a legend. We may need to coordinate our behaviour appropriately to make sure we don't scare him off to a different team

[Jan]: Which means until otherwise noted, you do not have the signal Jamie

[Jamie]: 🖕

getting a very clear sudden thought in my head to meditate but realizing that means going through all the steps of setup

[bookwyrminspiration]

i would like you to know that i had a dream recently that i read acod and the polyamory was non canon and only like baited (polyambaiting???) and i got so pissed and sent you an ask ranting to you and then you admitted you were jenn lyons' personal marketing manager responsible for making sure all the little gay people in your phone bought her book

anyway i still have not gotten my hands on this series i'll do it if it's the last thing i do

Honestly jenn should hire me at this point I'm getting the little gay people in my phone to read her book for FREE! I am like half the tag I swear

Anyway, so sorry for lying and helping polyambaiting everyone in your dream </3. I've reflected and have decided not to change my ways everyone read a chorus of dragons for the totally real and true polyamory *wink wink*

I hope you can get a copy soon and join in the fun!!

Time to revive this blog, too, as I left Instagram back in January. Here's one of my favourite pieces that I've completed in the time this blog's been inactive! Entity and its little one love you very much. Inspired initially by a clip of a black swan on a koi pond. The swan and the koi were moving together, and my brain went "oh hey wouldn't it be neat if that was some sort of single, gestalt-consciousness entity? Oh shit. I gotta draw that now" and off we went to the recursive celestial entity races. Started it sometime in '22, I think, and finally finished it in 2023. Didn't mention it on Instagram when I posted the finished piece (I kept my fandom stuff on the down-low while I was there), but as the little hatching entity entered the concept and started taking on more form and personality, and the piece's focus began to shift to the Entity's gentle, inquisitive, almost protective observation of the little newcomer's emergence, the piece soon became quiet fanart of Castiel and Jack in my head. In qaftsielworld, Jack gets to eclose from a mountain under the moon, stars, and their mom and guardians' loving gazes like a good little celestial-material entity deserves.

Tombow and Prismacolor markers, gelpen, Micron pens, and Stuart Semple Black 2.0 on bristol, approximately 23x28cm/9x11in.

ykw I need…18+ avanine hcs….im bein gay and horny and i don’t have my girl next to me so I guess I’ll settle for this instead😔

(also avanine is so cute but jagory is also so cute and honestly Janine got two hands so 🤷🏾‍♀️

(oh and I love ur art, avanine for the win‼️ )

omg tyyyyy hehehe (she DOES have two hands) oh i have some art i never posted here actually!

janine finds out that she reeeaaally likes using the strap on ava and she also likes being all harnessed up because the tightness makes her feel secure. ava likes biting and janine like being bit. janine likes being marked in general. janine and ava both like being in control but also like giving up the control and ava likes when janine tells her what to do more. janine really likes when ava gets her nails done stiletto style and ava gets the strap a little bit harder those days which means janine gets really nice scratches. they've done it a bunch of times in ava's closet but once they almost got found out they strictly stuck to only in the lady lair (after hours) for janine's comfort

Does not sound like that job respects you bro you should absolutely not feel guilty about leaving.. they were trying to put all that work on u the week before your wedding.. and for 15 an hour.. maybe if they did their jobs and hired someone 6 weeks ago instead of being lazy and expecting you to pick up the slack they wouldn’t have a problem..

Thank you 😭 you are so right and thanks for the encouragement

hard to remember that I don't owe this job shit just bc it's less obviously abusive than food service...

Look, I just think it'd be funny if I sent Pax out for querying. The problem is it will not be funny if I fuck around and almost snag a contract.

The choice that has your MC express a preference is "But if I chose one, I'm afraid the other will never talk to me again", after which Jade asks MC who they lean toward, and MC's response is coded (i.e. you don't get to choose who they say they prefer).

[kazz-brekker]

earlier today my dad was like "it's so nice that you're doing well right now" so i guess that means i've been doing a good job of concealing the overwhelming waves of existential despair that overcome me every week or so like clockwork about being an incredibly bored and boring college grad who lives at home in my childhood bedroom after coming back from college, got a complete useless degree in english literature that has gotten me exactly 0 jobs postgrad, who has no friends except my own sister who are within a drivable distance, who works a part time retail job as my only source of income, and who has no idea what i want to do with the rest of my life or where i will end up

[bad-science]

Happy birthday doc! I wish you many leeches and exactly 5 new teeth!

Oh boy new teeth!! My favorite snack!
