#thanks for being always patient with me

2023 I start, 2024 slowly, but steady, hopefully.🐌 (long)

Muy buenas, im not sure how these year's reviews are done but I wanted to give it a go. I'll try to make it brief at least.

This year's been pretty big for a lot of reasons. Mostly personal reasons, but ill start with art cause the personal ones are moppy and bland as a sponge and we're here for art huehue >:')!!!

I did talksprites for Maples Maid Service! Its a very cute cozy game i was very fortunate to lend a hand on. Peti and Bleak-Creep did and are still doing an amazing job with it. Always updating. Did you know that you can play it now on CoolMathGames? I thought that was cool

I did Manon's talksprites for Loveweb (i love loveweb and doing talksprites hehe) I loved the series since the beginning so i was pretty happy when knowing i was able to help @shadokwastaken a little, since this 2 part video was a lot of work!

Check all Loveweb!

I did my first long comic (dont check it! its messy to understand and im embarrased, im proud of finishing it tho!)

I learned a lot, and i hope i can still make comics.

Apart from these... I honestly haven't done something real GRAND or MIRACULOUS this year related to art.

i promised myself to draw for myself and draw what i want at the moment, or what makes me happy. So I've been drawing a lot of my characters or comics only for meee, or practicing anatomy-skulls, or gifts for people.

Im gonna keep it that way, thanks a lot for the people who hangs in there with me even if i do this. BUT IM SORRY!!! ill make something cool one day.

I'm focusing on working on comic stuff, i wanna do my own one day. And a year resolution i have its to finish this year the history things to start this year or the next one. I hope everyone is still here to walk with me that bumpy road haha

And the sponge stuff

I'm not going to get much into it, but this year I started being like, a normal person my age. I mean. I'm still not fully there. and still have a long road there. But I've done some stuff I was terrified all my life of because of -things-

I got my first job, and I had to interact with people. Now a 1 year one with coworkers even. And they laugh with me and treat me nicely, even if im just being awkward. Its pretty mindblowing and still can't believe it sometimes.

Its kinda embarrassing, but it gives me a little hope that i can be out there and it'll be ok. And that i can be me and people will tolerate it.

I've been trapped scared, so much that i haven't been living at all. I got to one of those, things when people invite you to go somewhere? just because? ive never done that! i hate going outside but it was so cool aaa we went to watch a movie!!! i still have the tickets!!!

Maybe its because i haven't done anything never, and im really, not the brightest. But ive learned a lot this year. Ive been feeling very hopeful and happy.

Hope you all have a smooth new year. Wishing the best

Lets keep walking, Slowly but steady 🐌

Thanks for reading and for everything 💚

22 or 23 with Thoma 🙏❤️

thoma x reader | prompt: carding your fingers through your lover's hair after a bad nightmare, not caring that it's sweaty or matted, but just that they'll be able to get a good night's sleep, even if it's at the sacrifice of your own

a soft call of your name, like a strike of a match in utter darkness, led you from your terrible dreams. you followed the feeling, the voice of your beloved until you were torn from sleep and jolted awake. what awaited you past the shadows of your nightmares, behind blonde locks of sleep ridden hair, was a sea of emeralds that you instantly knew would cradle you in a protective shield made of comforting flames that were unmatched by any other. 

you weren’t able to speak even though his name rested on the tip of your tongue, you would have cried it out had you been able to. your lungs felt empty and you were unable to catch your breath, your mind still unsure if this was real or not. if it was real would thoma be taken from you like in your dream? your hands shook as you reached for him, your eyes wide and wet with unshed tears as you tried desperately to decipher reality, your heart beating at an unsteady rhythm.

when your aching and cold fingers met with heated skin, toned muscles from years of hard work, you shook your head in near disbelief but prayed to the archons anyways, he had to be real. please don’t be a part of that terrible dream..

“it’s okay love,” thoma whispers, so full of assurance and yet laced with the worry he held from hearing you whimpering in your sleep and having to wake you from your dreams. he reaches for your face at the first sign of the tears falling past your lashes, his calloused fingers, so gentle and thoughtful, attempting to capture every tear that ran down your cheeks. “hey, hey, it’s okay. it was only a dre-”

his tender voice is replaced by his steady beating heart when you fling your arms around you and tightly hold yourself against him, your ear pressed right over his heart. you cling onto him, your fingers sinking into the strong muscles of his back like you might find yourself slipping into a reality where he was not here had you not had such a desperate grasp. 

“thoma..” you whimper on a choked sob, scared to close your eyes and see the images of your dreams once more. you only wanted thoma.. wanted him to be real, to remain in his arms and take him in.

he doesn’t waste a moment wrapping his arms around you in return, holding you impossibly close with reserved strength. you know your damp with sweat, can feel the way your hair sticks to your forehead and the side of your neck but that doesn’t stop thomas movements of carding a hand through your hair while the other is around your middle and keeps you pressed against him. 

“i’m here sweetheart,” he soothes you in that gentle voice of his. “shh.. it’s okay, ‘m right here baby.” it’s impossible not to believe him, not with how every truth he ever spoke to you was filled with his utter love and devotion - this one being no exception. 

the night carries on and you continue to let his words, his touch calm your racing heart, allow the last of your tears to dry on his chest, your body stopping its shaking in his hold. it was okay.. as long as you were together it would always be okay. you had promised each other that so many times. and soon, without warning, without fear, your arms loosen around him as you drift back to sleep.

he continues to keep you against his chest, his fingers still working through your hair, scraping gently against your scalp and helping you relax deeper against him. your breath fans against his chest, steady and deep, and with how peaceful you're sleeping the anxiety he held in his shoulder finally relaxes but he can’t bring himself to fall back asleep or stop his touches that always calm you.

he didn’t care how little sleep he might get or how tired he might be come morning. meals would still be made, the estate would still get cleaned, the kamisato siblings and more importantly, you would be cared for, would be happy by his side, regardless of his sleep. ensuring you would sleep through the night, that you wouldn’t shed another tear as long as he was here to keep you smiling, was most important to him and he would watch over you all night to be sure he could do just that for his love. 

it’s only in the earliest part of the morning, when the smallest bit of the sun kisses the ocean outside of the estate, coloring the sky in deep purples and welcoming blues, does he finally succumb to his tired eyes and fall asleep with you held against him tightly, his chin resting atop your head, your hearts beating slow as one.

so i just went through your entire anti-lok tag and everything you said in it was SO WELL WRITTEN. i wanted to ask if you might have any analyses or anything (or just good old rants! we love being bryke haters) - about something that i noticed, which is this sort of... ATLA/TLOK dichotomy between how all aang's villains seem to be focused on gaining power/dominating the world or whatever, but the villains in TLOK seem to revolve around very pointed targeting of korra and specifically stripping her of her agency/bodily autonomy, but i don't know how to expand on that point.

(idk just. TLOK has a whole list of scenes that make me VIOLENTLY uncomfortable in a way even the worst of ATLA doesn't? and i thought you might have some input to share about it, if you don't mind me asking)

thank you sm!! i'm glad you enjoy my lok and bryke salt <33

i know what you mean, because it's something that struck me when i was watching lok as well. korra's villains are far more personal to her (particularly in what they do to her, or want from her) than azula or ozai or even zhao ever were to aang, and while that isn't necessarily a bad thing (in fact it can often be good to have a personal relationship between your hero and villain; just look at how much more impactful and meaningful zuko and azula's arc was compared to aang and ozai's), there is a way to do it right and that was... not what bryke did.

we didn't need to see korra brutally bloodbent and stripped of her bending, or brutally attacked by unalaq, or brutally tortured by the red lotus or - you got it - brutally beaten up by kuvira (over and over again, might i add). i'm not saying that violence never has its place in storytelling, but it needs to have an actual purpose that's not just shock value. atla, for instance, knew when and how to utilise violence: the sight of gyatso's skeleton in the southern air temple, aang's murder by azula, even katara bloodbending... the violence in all of those scenes was necessary either to communicate vital information to the audience, or drive home the emotive and narrative significance of the moment, or both.

in lok though, bryke hardly, if ever, achieved either of these objectives - especially because it was mainly only ever korra who got the brunt of the violence. no other character is repeatedly targeted and assaulted and violated even half as much as korra is, even when they're facing the same antagonists. tenzin's fight against the red lotus in book 3 gets a tasteful pan to black (one of the few times i think bryke did use violence purposefully; knowing what not to show is just as important as knowing what to show, and leaving the audience with the dread of tenzin's fate was actually sadder and more terrifying than letting us see what happened to him) but korra's agonizing torture at the hands of the red lotus is so long and drawn-out that it begins to veer into torture porn.

imo, this can probably be attributed to two things: 1) bry.ke thinking trauma = character development because they don't know how else to write a good character arc (and they still somehow fucked it up - i will never forgive them for making korra thank zaheer, of all people, for helping her overcome her trauma, like what the absolute fuck bry.ke), and 2) they wanted lok to be "more mature" than atla, which shows both that they fundamentally didn't understand atla, or what constitutes good storytelling, and also that someone desperately needs to tell them that simply upping the violence and hamfistedly handling "complex" topics does not maturity make.

(given the way bryke has written women, i also have to side-eye the fact that the strong-willed, independent, brown female protagonist is beaten and battered and torn down far more than the peaceful, affable light-skinned male protagonist ever is, even during an actual war.)

and of course, contrary to what our dear bryke probably expected, simply brutalizing korra season after season in the name of shock value and development did not, to anyone else's surprise, make lok the better show in the end.

since you like steven universe and zelda you seem like the perfect person to share this thought with, do you think baby ganondorf ever had a moment where his mums fused into twinrova and had a freak out/ existential crisis over it like when garnet unfused in front of baby steven in su? I think his mums would never let him live down the fact that they couldn't fuse until he was older because of the panic tantrum babydorf would throw while trying to figure out where they went and who this strange woman was

He might freak out, but he might also start giggling, because it seems like his default reaction to magic he's never seen before is to become fascinated/obsessed with replicating it, based on his surprisingly calm reaction to Octavio blockading him inside of his own house in Cadence of Hyrule.

However, it also seems like fusion is one of the few areas of magic he genuinely struggles with, given that we never see him pull it off while he still has all of his marbles. It seems to require a level of emotional intimacy and trust that he's not really willing to open himself up to. The only time he successfully fuses in the games is when he no longer really *has* a mind capable of hangups that could cause a psychological block. He has an easier time with possession, where he remains a separate entity and still has an opportunity to hit the metaphorical panic button and override the will of his host if things don't go exactly how he wants.

Imagining him being initially fascinated with fusion, but then becoming frustrated with it to the point where he's got a bit of privately held sour grapes about it...it's a little sad, really. It makes me wonder what kind of relationship it'd take to convince him to actually let go of the reigns enough to experience a proper fusion.

hey all , just a quick update to tell ya'll where i'm at ( since i'm comfortable sharing about what's been personally going on with me . )

so i was let go from my job about a month ago , which was a long time coming . after two whole years of not being listened to or supported . being gaslighted , being worked to the bone or to the point of burnout and continuing to put to work without so much as a check-in or help . feeling constantly stuck and trapped in a position after explicitly asking for more responsibilities and / or asking to be taught things / showing interest in other ways to operate the shop ( honestly i could go on here , but i'll digress . ) it seems like they only did me a favor , even if the needed a "valid" reason to fire me . point is : i wipe my hands of that fucking place and it's on to better things which are in the works as i speak .

so yeah , that's what i've been dealing with for two years and i'm hoping now that the one thing that was really getting in the way of my creativity . i'll be able to stick my toes back into writing on here . my main focus for this blog still is to cultivate my safe space and i've slowly been doing that already by utilizing the hard block feature . i need to lean up my blog a bit , but i of course have a few things on here that i'm able ot work on and put out . so if you're expecting a reply for either a thread or a meme . i'l get to those in time . but just a reminder it's gonna be a slow process since i'm still getting back into this thing .
