i know in my heart that asuna and rika take the time to show kaz how to do cute little winged eyeliner and then the next time they see her she’s got 2009 scene queen panda eyes and she’s so excited about being the goth girl of her dreams 😭😭
Showing her how to do a very simple, graceful like that accents the shape of her eye only for her to come out the next day guns blazing eyelids fully blacked out and the biggest smile on her face. Lizbeth questions why they even bothered trying to show her the normal way while Asuna is looking lovingly at her over the top edgy girlfriend. Honestly Lizbeth wonders why she even tries with either of them.

su au lets fucking goooooo
edit: TUMBLR ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS. WHY THE FUCK DO YOU SCRAMBLE SHIT WHEN I USE A READ MORE YOURE A FUCKING CUNT GOOD LORD
edit2: it added the edit but not the fucking read more. im tired
i had the brush set too small at first & didnt realize until i was already too far along- full body diamond authority is ok w the shaded fit & wings but the headshot is just. eh. kinda dislike it. im fucking obsessed with the other headshot tho
giyuu's a lapis along w tsutako, normal lapis terraforming job but some shit went down, tsutako got shattered, giyuu was left to fend for herself until she ran into a lost kunzite fresh out the ground (she had a slight imperfection, showed up as a spot along her cheek (corner of mouth to center base of ear) that looks like raw kunzite/ yk when a helmet or somethn gets shaved down sliding against a road? that)
they tough it out in the wilds for a while, they got attacked and accidentally fused to defend themselves, kept fusing when they were in trouble after that- yadda yadda meet makomo (also a gem) & sakonji and learn how to be their own person, getting their own names (giyuu got Giyuu, the kunzite got Sabito) and meeting a group of other rogue gems & making human friends
sabito got particularly interested in the concept of human masculinity & highly respected the closest man she knew, sakonji- transed his gender & chose to dedicate himself to protecting those he cares about. giyuu is very close to him and also changed pronouns & vibes bc sabito loved it so much, though he doesnt really care about human perceptions of gender (hes a pretty rock made of light, the fuck does he need a gender for? (sabito doesnt see it that way, he never got indoctrinated/had a formal gem education or whatever, so hes just vibin))
something something giyuu found a way to precisely control water, and what is ice if not Structured Water. sabito never got whatever his job as a kunzite was, but he has a similar ability as Pearl where hes able to summon a blade from his gem (rectangular cut, back of his left hand). when theyre fused they become Hawk's Eye (also know as blue tiger's eye), able to both control water(& subsequently ice) and form blades along his arms and feet; the blades on his feet allow him to ice skate, the blades on his arms are attached at two points on the forearm and is curved over the hand- the blade's allowed to spin around the arm, tip of the blade is at the point of rotation so itll be in the same spot above the hand no matter what side of the arm its on

really @ people complaining about the makeup for thrawn, really what did you expect? i mean, stop presenting us with animation or fanarts, to show us what could have (or should've according to y'all) realistically been done in live action for thrawn. the truth is that he's a blue guy with red eyes, the end.

I finally have an orc character now.
also i finally have a templar now :O
I’m gonna make him a sneaky boy. ignore the sickle clipping into his clothing at his waist there, just pretend that’s not happening, it’s fine.
also holy moly it’s difficult to make a dude orc who doesn’t look like every other dude orc in the game, with their gigantic square zillion-year-old faces of crags. I would LOVE craggy old character options for women, but of course we don’t get that. Also the fact that no matter where you put the age on male orsimer in char creation, they look exactly the same is a red flag. and annoying as hell. and bad design.
But i worked with what i had and bam, here we are.
i miss the snout noses from oblivion for orsimer, honestly: you could even achieve similar nose-slit effects in skyrim. i’d prefer my orcs to not lean into racist caricatures of real human peoples, and also for elven (because orcs are elves) creatures to not just look like regular people with a few accessories put on here and there in my fantasy media... but i digress.

We have returned to The Vampire Diaries after taking a break between seasons 2 and 3 to watch Dead Boy Detectives and you can really tell that the production considers Damon a more legitimate love interest this season, rather than just a secondary love interest/loser of the love triangle, because they've put extra effort into making him particularly attractive.

Im researching pitbull coat colors cuz the different ways different coat colors come about and present in cats and dogs is fascinating (clearly, considering how much I geek out about calico cats)
And apparently chewby had some rare puppies
(This website didnt specifically say that blue brindles are rare but other places im looking do)
Like I knew boosie had an interesting coat but I didnt realize precious (a blue fawn) was also not common
Also according to this boosie is technically a reverse blue brindle cuz blue is his primary color (he just looked blue as a puppy and developed brindling as he aged)
