Hey, I am making a comic. Wanna hear about it?
Tumblr media
Being a busy person during the next couple of years, I managed to get something out of it. My digital skills have quite improved from their humble beginnings when I got my first drawing tablet. It was just then, I had to start new. I always been a story writer by heart, one who likes to put parts of their personal life into the stories I have written. But some may say:
"Well it is obvious everyone does that"
Yes! that is very so true, but I felt as I inserted too much of myself into these stories I was a self insert by that time.
Looking back, is it embarrassing? yes, and so will be the things past 2019.
Nevertheless, I had to start fresh. Be original, be something you can proudly stand in front of people and tell them without feeling as your pants just disappeared when the crowd is staring.
Well, it's 2020. What a year ain't it
Someone such as myself who graduated from college with a Illustrator degree came down to a big feeling of pride and motivation to finally start writing.
Something that connects to myself without really making me the protagonist in anyways, I had to create LIFE!.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Make my own characters was first before anything else, this is better than nothing right?.
Tumblr media
I am getting there!
But what would be the media I would present this story with characters whom exist in this void in my head?
I am no literary writer so writing it to a book will not work.
I cannot animate for the life of me, so no.
Film? Get out of here! how am I supposed to get a purple fox and a blue hair woman from.
It did came to my mind that just like a light bulb moment, a graphic novel it is!
Tumblr media
Clearly I was getting somewhere...
...So it's 2022, about that comic I was about to make.
Well as changes through my art style came around, I now have 2 years of working in the digital medium, and I think I have improved from before right?
Right?
Tumblr media
Well I would like to say that I did. The whole reason it has taken this long is for the insecurity of the quality of the art, I thought i made the right choice since I was still very early on my digital years. While traditionally it was much longer, but this is different.
Tumblr media
2 Years is quite a lot, I felt ready. Although my biggest issue other than skill was the procrastination.
I may not come as the fastest worker you have known. That's it.
The true is that if i did not work on this now, then when? I do not want this to take any longer when I have already developed the story in my head, and have kept notes in my trusty notebook too.
This is not the year, at the moment I am still sketching pages for the comic...
the comic...
THE COMIC
Tumblr media
The conic is called Nox & Neva! with a brief summary I want to come to mention what I used from my life to inspire me to make it the way how i want it to.
This is a story of a woman and a fox. yes a FOX (ice fox to be specific).
Throughout my years I have come to enjoy two types of media, dwelling into their individual communities and people. I am quite a fanatic of what I am presenting within the two and the world the live in.
the characters!
Nox: An ice fox in which who is very sleepy, very closed. Do they wish to have some company? maybe, that would be nice if they stumble upon it. Nox tends to live on their own apartment in which could use some cleaning. with that idea in mind; Nox would rather have someone clean it for them. What better way than hiring someone!.
Nox may come to be small, introverted, and perhaps not very talkative. But they do have some heart. Morals still have to be there right? Nox grew to learn them and learn about themselves.
Neva: Quite the girl, what can't she do!?
Well a lot of things, the perfect white collared worker of which you can put her in any type of job and she would instantly become number one at everything. With a few degrees from amazing schools, at what cost is all of that if she cannot open her apartment door to any guests?. Maybe working at so many offices, moving from place to place, has her have enough. At least for now, she quits her job and starts from zero, nothing looks good yet. Neva has quite the mind and body to be quite perfect, maybe a bit too perfect? She is still an extrovert, or she at least thinks. She is not good at parties. Neva just needs something more than a coworker, but a friend. how hard can that be right?.
This is Nox and Neva, the story of two quite different people who find to meet each other during a hiring, from a boss and worker to quite the friends.
How will they develop this friendship, or what will the discover from themselves thanks to the other. This is their beginning.
It's not easy to write, nor will it ever be. This is my chance to do this, and working 2 years on this means a lot to me. Reflecting on the story on yourself, and yeah you wish for success as much as for those fictional people. everyone has goals, and seek for it under their own story.
Tumblr media
But this is the beginning, their beginning. They will become friends, but it will take it's time. And so will a lot of things.
Tumblr media
But for me, I am having the best time of my life drawing these goobers.

"You are what you eat" but applied to vampires is so fun
Biology
You literally become the prey you consume to more easily seduce and isolate prey
You take on physical traits of the people you drink (hair colour and such)
If you consume someone who has a genetic disease it affects you as well and any vampire you spawn may gain it as well
Personality
You consume more than just blood but also the very essence of who they are and until you've "digested" that fully your personality shifts towards theirs, you have their memories and struggle to tell which memories are yours, their view of the world becomes part of yours. If you aren't prepared for this anything you consume may become permanent.
Your prey joins you in your head after consumption and while you may be in control it is slowly slipping away as the chorus grows in strength.
The more you drink your favourite type of people you long to become more like them as you start adopting their habits and patterns.
The miscellaneous stuff
You gain their spells/skills/abilities though for a superhero story there could be a wonderful imposter syndrome story there where a vampire villain has to take over from the superhero they just drank and killed after it turns out the superhero was actually really important to keeping everyone safe. They do still have to suck blood and all that though and over the course of the story you could have the conflict of wanting more power but not the responsibility be a big theme.

Mortal Kombat Deity! AU: The Demigods
Part One to introducing the characters of my Deity! AU is the demigods. Turns out they were a little easier to create the foundations for than I thought. I’m working on the gods’ foundations at the moment so hopefully they’ll be up soon too.
Raiden, the Lightning Rod.
His focus: an amulet gifted to him by Liu Kang.
Raiden is a member of a group called “Defenders of Earthrealm”, who task themselves with keeping threats to the mortal plane at bay at the request of the gods who patron them.
Soft spoken and diplomatic, he’d rather try to talk things out first before zapping them to a crisp with his electrical powers.
Kung Lao, the Shaolin Great
His focus: a sharp-edged hat he made himself.
Kung Lao joined the Defenders of Earthrealm at the same time as Raiden, wanting to live up to his family’s legacy as a clan of great fighters and guardians.
He makes and maintains his own equipment and weapons after an incident that involved an ill-made piece of equipment and a prank that went too far; he has a scar on his stomach from this that only Raiden has seen (he knows the story behind it, too).
Johnny Cage, the Walk of Famer
His focus: a pair of expensive sunglasses.
A tech whiz, Johnny supplies and maintains the Defenders’ technology; he gets the supplies through his connections in Hollywood, amongst other places.
He prefers to hide how intelligent he is by cracking bad jokes and innuendos to make him appear air-headed; he likes to draw in his opponents with his charms and then go for the uppercut.
Kenshi Takahashi, the Spirit Caller
His focus: a family sword called Sento.
After being blinded during his service to the Yakuza, Kenshi uses the power of his ancestors residing in Sento to move around a space and fight his enemies; Liu Kang’s demigod blessing amplified his power.
He claims that Johnny irritates him to no end, but he knows that without his noise Kenshi would likely have not joined the Defenders and remained with the Yakuza.
Mileena, the Firstborn Guardian
Her focus: her royal mask.
As the first-born daughter of the Goddess of Judgement and Protection, Sindel, Mileena has a condition called Tarkat which causes facial deformities and an uncontrollable urge to eat human flesh. (No one, not even the Eon, know why or how this occurs to the first-born children only.)
She is fiercely protective of her sister and girlfriend; she is the embodiment of Sindel’s guardian virtue as Empress of the mortal plane.
Kitana, the Royal Butterfly
Her focus: her dual fan weapons.
While she’s beautiful and she’s aware of it, Kitana isn’t afraid to get bloody to protect those she considers close to her - currently, that is only her family.
When she isn’t fighting, dealing with court politics or assisting Mileena with her daily duties, she can often be found by herself engrossed in a book (when they were children, she used to read to Mileena after her Tarkat episodes to help calm her down).

This is a semi-auto-translated version of the brief story in German, featuring Joachim Murat and Jean Lannes at the Tabor Bridges close to Vienna in 1805 - from the Austrian perspective. I hope it’s at least understandable.
Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Napoleonic Era RPF Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Characters: Joachim Murat, Jean Lannes Additional Tags: Third Coalition War, Napoleonic Wars, marshalate fandom
Summary: November 1805. The Austrian troops guarding the Danube river crossing only need to fulfil a simple task: wait until the French approach, burn the bridges behind them and fire at the French army from the other river bank. It's still more easily said than done...

HSR x Fate UBW coming in Q3 2025 !
(I write these in mind for anyone doesn't know Fate series at all)
Tumblr media
For now it's unknown will it come with stories or just skin or full pack with playable UBW character
Not long ago HSR had interview with FGO team, the magazine only release their Q&A but considering both side love each other project, these collab shouldn't really suprising. If there's suprising fact is why only UBW not FGO directly ? Since there is no info about collab details, let's make some analysis for now :
FGO especially Fate series is really big world ! If you need comparasion, it's not only Honkai Impact world but all Hoyoverse become one and you need to know at least a bit of each title to make sense about Fate series !
Continuing point above, which is the reason they gave us years for this collab ! Their developer consider years should be enough for player to quick read most Fate series franchise (lol)
Fate as whole already into their 20 years old now so it's kinda impossible for anyone to learn that series from start (even I only know fifty percent of it). So to make it simple, they just pick their well known franchise but not making players too confused about their world building which is Fate Stay Night. UBW is decent choice considering what's happened with other two.
If anyone need comparasion, UBW kinda like GGZ in term of popularity and reminiscing (lol) while FGO kinda like former Genshin in term of popularity.
I kinda saw FGO pretty desperate nowdays or maybe they're already out of idea to promote Fate series onward. For anyone doesn't know, FGO was the king of mobile gacha games but after Genshin release their revenue drop sharply and with more Chinese gacha games out lately, you can say now it's their lowest situations so to be honest Fate series feels like gonna dying sooner or later which is this collab came.
I can say for sure that this collab came from HSR side since those otaku ops growth like now while watching/reading Fate series (lol) so I think there's no way HSR or even Fate team will slack off especially for storytelling since it's Fate main selling (if there's one for collab later lol)
Onto collab prediction since it's specifically UBW, means the main character is either Rin or/and Emiya. Maybe anyone still not read questionable leaks but there's info this collab need two version to finish means there's at least four and max six new character avaliable later. Considering UBW stories, I can think of Saber and Gilgamesh or maybe Kirei can join the roaster too.
Now for everyone who doesn't know Fate series and need pointer for later collab, first please watch Fate Stay Night, it have three titles with same story premise but different PoV with different ending (Fate Stay Night 24 episode -> Fate Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works 1 movie -> Fate Stay Night Heaven's Feel 3 parts movie). Next it's Fate Stay Night prologue, Fate Zero 24 episode and you're good to breakthrough the collab only.
Sounds simple right, which is the reason they choose Unlimited Blade Works for collab. If FGO, you could swarm yourself with 9 years FGO lore materials + other works with and without "Fate" titles on it (lol)
#honkai star rail#fate grand order#fate stay night#unlimited blade works#if you asked me am I happy with this collab ?#the answer either yes and no#yes means hsr could learn from fgo storytelling (then again if the collab have story)#I once said that fgo have a best story and its much better than genshin hsr#yups since fgo storywriter kinoko nasu there (lol)#so yeah I more excited with nasu will write the story or not#no means since it's ubw#eh even it's different francise too I still can't excited#fate series mc aren't that appealing (lol)#even with different mc in the end it's saber again#anyways once nasu wrote one story worth of standalone franchise and it's still in fgo hall of fame (yups lb 6)#anyone read lb6 should know their godlike story...#it's masterpiece#if fate still famous I think lb6 should deserve an anime#nasu storywriting is what people called (at least) awesome to perfect#while genshin and hsr still soft on conclusion parts especially hsr#what the hell with 2.3 !?#still better than luofu but it still soft#but 2.3 makes me lower overall penacony rating#it's like you enjoy a full course but the dessert feels too sweet for overall dish#the course feels good but the last part kinda destroy your overall enjoyment (lol)#and what makes fate interesting is they write historical people pretty near the actual one#aside it's genderbender and white of course#you wanna know arthurian legend ? just read fgo saber and all her retainers profile (lol)#or shinsengumi ? they have some people too#or indian mahabarata

TUMBLR!!! I NEED YOUR HELP!!!!!! TL;DR I NEED A NAME FOR A STORY!!! (skip to the part in blue for the story)
okay so. As of recent I've been writing this story for my OCs. Told my mum about it and she says that I'm apparently gifted or some shit like that?? Like doesn't everyone make maps, geography and culture for their ocs /silly...
That was off topic, and now back to being on it. I need a name for the story. I've spent a long time writing it, and I want to see if this maybe would have a chance outside of my mind and friend group. I'll write a small summary of the story, but let me provide a bit of background for the characters, world, and other details around it.
On a faithful March 10th 2021, 12 year old me was playing Meep City. In a FNF party no less. I was playing as Hex, but his fun-sized one and called it "kid hex". The other person, who I'll call Advent since his full user at the time was something along the lines of "AdventureTwins11", motivated me to call the mini version of the basketball playing robot something else. "Give it a more original name" was basically what he said. I complied, and went through an extremely complex thought process.
Continuation under the cut!
Did I get you there? lmao His name was changed by one letter and one letter only. Into Nex. Past me was completely oblivious to me opening Pandora's Box. We were like "haha, this is so funny lmao" since it was stupid. A week or two later, I asked if I could make him a girl. Advent said that he was chill with the idea, so I went with it. Few more weeks pass, and then we stop abruptly. I didn't get why, just went with it.
Discord came into my life. Woooah storyy of undertale a lot of things happened that I would probably need to censor, but then one day a holy saviour called Amy (@.amysxnflower LOOKING AT YOU BITH) let me join their discord server in the late 2021s. Year later that server went down in flames, but they made a new server. One day, i don't remember if it's during or after the events of SBRP's downfall I made friends with one of the mods. And after another successful rotation around the sun on my daughter's side, I decided to start talking about my robots. That's kinda when everything changed, and here I am now, writing this tumblr post. Nex has changed from knockoff to only having a similar name, but now she's the deuteragonist of the story I'm in search of names for.
Alright, time for the ACTUAL story. It's incomplete and a rough layover of my plan, but it's what I have for it right now.
Yeah, ever had that one weird dream about... huh, meeting... another person that's like you? What? They... look and resemble you. Not the same person, but... The person that had this dream is called Shock Rai, the longest lasting creation of his creator. He and his younger sister Nex are both citizens of the town Southport, England. Today, they need to go out to get a new closet, because, uh... Nex somehow broke her old one. Shock doesn't even KNOW how that shit happened. Skip a walk to the closest furniture store, these two are rushing to look at the closets. Why? For no particular reason- Okay there was gonna be a storm and they'd die if they were out in that weather. However, the gods seem to not be a big fan of them, so they end up getting trapped in the furniture store. Deciding to just stay there until the storm heads out and the sun peaks through, they just kinda hide in a place that not many employees would head to based off of their observations. And after a lot of sibling arguing, Nex manages to go off on her own to look around. She finds... a closet. Not like the others, but when she opens it, it's just an empty void. She called over to Shock, and they both crawled in, walking... in a 1.5 ft wide closet. How? They don't know, it didn't add up in their mechanical little brains. ...Then a drop. A few bangs to the head, and... wait, why are they... in a completely different city? Why did they land in an alleyway overgrown with plants? This isn't their world. It was like the dream that Shock had, there were... other robots there. Like them. Nervously and hesitantly, they began walking around, not straying too far from both each other and their landing spot. That's when the hier of the nation saw them both.
Looking back on what I just wrote, what the actual HELL. Anyways, yeah, Shock and Nex are the protagonists of my little story that I'm writing. Here's what they look like, stolen STRAIGHT from their Art Fight references (i'm not good at art, i know):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yeah, artistic confidence is NOT skyrocketing right now. Anyways, please, do tell me, how do you want this story to be named?

Okay people, I am studying right now which means that I am absurdly creative and willing to make fun things, send me warrior cats aus (between pre-tpb and oots preferably; I haven't yet finished avos and the last two arcs are fully out of reach for me) and I'll do my best to outline a full story out of it.

it confuses me when people are all "astarion doesn't like sex" like did we play the same game? it's not about the sex, not inherently. astarion clearly enjoys sex when it's on his terms and performed without ulterior motives. it's about the objectification, the being seen as nothing more than a tool for pleasure. he's had every scrap of pleasure and connection turned into cruelty and evil for centuries. of course his first reaction when free is to fear torture. you win his heart by not trying to have sex with him again after he expresses his feelings about being seen as a sex object, being kind without the expectation of repayment, and allowing him to choose when to initiate what he wants. he heals on his own time, and his own terms, and reclaims his agency and sexuality for himself when he feels comfortable. it's a reward for *him*, not you. reducing that down to "astarion is sex repulsed" squashes all the nuances of his sexuality

Ep 10!
#Idk it was. An episode. Not many thoughts tbh ajhdblabfdl#The Kyouka / Akutagawa scene is my favourite ever. But I suppose there's little to say about them I haven't said already lol.#The “Because I knew a man who had the same eyes as yours” will never stop being endlessly impactful.#And I still find it very remarkable how Kyouka is pretty much literally the only person other than Dazai that Akutagawa respects.#It hits me so hard.#Nothing else to add? I think the storywriting in this arc is very good. The plot twists are very well executed.#I remember when I was reading the manga and Ranpo challenged Chuuya face off I was so hooked!!#I was like‚ how is he going to win!!! It's very nice.#I think it's interesting that Atsushi stayed behind with Kunikida instead of facing the pm with the rest of the pm.#I wish we'd explored his decision and state of mind more‚ especially since he was portrayed as being visibly conflicted.#I think part of it simply solves a storytelling purpose of not leaving Kunikida alone...#But I don't think that necessarily means the decision doesn't suit him. Atsushi really looks up to Fukuzawa.#His trauma probably makes him more reluctant to break orders than‚ let's say‚ Ranpo.#And he's always been very spokenly against violence.#Idk. I just think it's interesting.#The line “Kunikida‚ you're the strongest and most virtuous of us in the Agency. That's why the enemy tried to break you first.”#is very emotional#The animation is so strained it makes me feel bad for the animators. So many static frames lingering for so long...#I feel like the result isn't necessarily terrible either. The drawings are not ugly‚ just very undetailed.#But it really feels like there was a group of people doing the best they could with the llittle they had...#random rambles#And I'm now all caught up with the rewatch!!!!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳 See you on Wednesday!!!!!

Fucking Winter
(Has anyone else ever written something, then got a case of the giggles when they re-read it? This title did it for me.)
(Game: Mortal Kombat 1, 2023. Alternate Universe. Drabble.)
The days were beginning to shorten. The villagers had started to portion and store various foods and goods in preparation for the upcoming cold. Many of them began to spread a story that it was going to be one of the coldest seasons on record.
The cold itself, however, was still coming.
“Bi-Han!” Kuai Liang banged his fist against the door, small embers floating into the air with each hit. “Brother, come out!”
“Fuck off!” came the call from inside the room.
“You are needed at Season’s End!” The summer god reached for the door’s knob and let himself into the room, steam coming from his skin at the sudden change in temperature. What greeted him when he got inside made him halt abruptly in his tracks.
“Good morning, Kuai Liang,” Tora smiled at him from her position. Bi-Han fixed a glare at his brother and shifted his arms to provide the Lifegiver with some modicum of modesty.
“I, uh…” Any thoughts that Kuai Liang summoned to his mouth died on its way out, a furious blush staining his cheeks and ears.
“Leave…” hissed the winter god, the temperature in the room dropping further. Tora soothingly rubbed her hands over his shoulders and biceps.
“Liu Kang wants to see you at Season’s End when…” The summer god cleared his throat. “When you are available.” He nodded at the pair and quickly retreated from the room, triple checking that he had closed the door behind him.

Dear madders
As artists, how can you snap from your daydreams and actually start to produce what you were daydreaming?
Because my biggest problem is my mind is full of creatives ideas but I keep "thinking" them instead of doing something practical

I want more interesting supersoldiers
Most supersoldiers are a bit bland, aren't they? A lot of them seem to me to be just better soldiers, effectively +5 to all stats and that's it.
I would like a more varied approach to this, akin to how Monstergarden draws his wardancers and such. (link to his youtube https://www.youtube.com/@monlenz/featured) there should be strong visual and functional differences between different types of soldiers and between the factions of the story.
For example, if you have a medieval story with large formations of soldiers locked in melee, perhaps a taller soldier with a long pike could tower over other soldiers as they pick out priority targets amongst the enemy formation. But I find that they should also be distinctly nonhuman at that point, limbs and such stretched beyond what should be possible with a muscle layout that only makes sense on such a stretched frame.
This could also lead to isolated groups of supersoldiers with essentially racism between them as tension rises with the ongoing war and the only ones they can take it out on being their fellow soldiers. And of course make sure to add a character arc where that either leads to more tension or resolve it as they realise infighting doesn't get them anywhere.
Depending on how quickly the tech required to make new types of super soldiers is, you can even have a sort of arms race as both sides play genetic rock paper scissors. I have written the beginnings of a world where this takes place, and I've run into some interesting character opportunities.
For example, what do you do to soldiers that come out of the process "half-baked" but still able to fight? They'd probably just get sent back to the frontlines where they were probably recruited from, as I think regular soldiers with their above average physical health and loyalty to the military would be the best for "enhancement". So you'd have squads awaiting their fellow soldiers at the frontline, only for their comrades and friends to return twisted and perhaps even badly hurt.
I'm sure there's more here to talk about, especially with different genres like scifi or ww2. Alas, i don't want to ramble even though this is my own blog.
