I have wasted years not knowing this

Ok so? When was someone going to tell me that sewing is EASY?? It’s like REALLY EASY? And you can just... make plushies? You can just make them.

Obviously mastering it is difficult. Something that takes a lot of practice and effort, and I have massive respect for people who have dedicated hours to improving their skills. There’s a big difference between knowing something and getting really good at it.

But like? Just sewing? The basics? Learn a stitch? It’s INCREDIBLY EASY. Like oh my GOSH, why didn’t I learn this sooner?? There is no 4D chess involved in making a backstitch it’s super simple. Even if it’s messy and lopsided and sorta bad, it still holds the fabric together.

Look at this look at this little guy I made

I didn’t know how to put thread on a needle a few days ago. Last night I made this little dude out of an old shirt. I used a white crayon to hand draw a dumb wobbly circle onto the fabric so I could practice basic stitches and now I have this little guy. I made a little guy!!

Nobody told me you could just MAKE things like it’s THAT easy!

If you’ve been considering learning how to sew or how to make things from cloth go do it go do it now. It’s ridiculously easy. You too could have a little guy by like... tomorrow. Tonight even.

I was BLESSED today with a commissioned work from my favorite artist @miranhas-art and you GUYS, LOOK

LOOK AT IT

I love everything about this. The expressions, the eye contact, the grapes!!, the POSE!! She even drew my favorite summer dress 😭

Mari is an absolute genius and has this way of drawing touches and subtleties of intimate emotion that make my heart YEARN. I’m so amazed at how she was able to capture the encompassing aura of Leto (not to mention the TUM and THIGHS wowww, she even got the RING in there!!) I let her decide from a list of options of scenes to draw. And let me tell you, my mind could NEVER have come up with something so playful and sweet. I’m completely smitten with this and I may be biased of course but I think it’s her best work yet.

Thank you, Mari, you really made my day 💚💚💚

[also I believe her commissions are still open so y’all should jump on it while you can]

Blunts, black cats, stretching, piercings, long study sessions, iced coffee, rainy days, horror books, quiet nights, warm showers, tattoos, long boarding, binge watching, oversized clothes, earthy candles, small gestures, silent cuddles, forehead kisses, old cemeteries, dark colours, crystals, random facts, dark chocolate, art galleries, abandoned buildings, note taking.

bro, sometimes I hate my overactive dreams keeping me exhausted every night, like it's a problem

but

im gay

and this girl in my dreams just had me in an absolute stupor, i mean she was gorgeous, like magically so

man, she was beautiful

she had all this curly hair half up and half down, the up part was in two space buns, she had this earthy style to her clothes, striking green eyes that were just so goddamn beautiful, she had these mismatch earrings and necklaces and rings

goddamn was she pretty

she was deaf, and i only know a bit of sign language so it was a lot of enunciating words and bits of sign language i actually know, i actually understood most of what she said for some reason but i couldnt actually say anything myself?? she was so sweet too, and i was on roller skates but i can't roller skate so i was just falling over like a doof the whole time

dramatic sighs over here, she was stunning

Beautiful angel ⭐️🦋

forever obsessed with dynamics between vampires, specifically that of a maker and fledgling, as a way to explore abuse. the creation of a vampire itself can so easily be a literalization of the lasting impacts of trauma and also much more simply the ways a perpetrator might shape their victim’s very identity. the extremes of isolation in the way that the new vampire, in most narratives, must cut all ties to their mortal life, or else go through an elaborate charade to maintain the facade of humanity, while forever still being removed from it. and the sheer dependence and vulnerability of being in an entirely new state of being, wholly uncertain of what it entails, and relying on another person to define… everything.

I'm sorry you're not feeling well. When I'm sick I like to imagine how my faves would take care of me so here's my little nathan headcanon

Nathan would be worried that he'd catch whatever you have so he'd lock himself in his office and he'd have Kyoko follow you around all day, cleaning the sweat off your body with a damp rag, give you medicine, glasses of water, soup, readjust the covers... until he hears you say to Kyoko that you're this 👌 close to dump him for her since she takes such good care of you. Of course you know he's listening, there are cameras everywhere and Kyoko doesn't understand you. You're passing on a message: Nathan, you're an asshole and a bad boyfriend.

Nathan wouldn't apologize to you with words but he'd finally leave his office to join you (germs be damned) and he'd take you on long walks around the property, claiming that fresh air is good for your lungs, he'd make you drink green smoothies, and exercise until you're literally too weak to stand.

You're not bantering and giving him shit like he's used too, and that's what finally makes him worry. He thinks he might have gone a little too hard on you. So in a rare display of affection, he gently fluffs your pillow and blankets and asks you what you need. He says he's your own personal robot until you get better and he internally cheers when it makes you smile. You just need him close, you just want to know he cares. He lies next to you, working from his phone, while you use him as a pillow and heat source. He'd rub your back soothingly when a couching fit hits you.

Hope you feel better soon, beautiful

This is so adorable!!! I read this like 5 times!! I can totally see this happening! It’s literally so perfect.

“Kyoko, you’re the best. Are you single?”

Kyoko: **doesn’t respond**

Nathan: **gets angry but has no one to blame but himself **

I could really use some green juice and a kickboxing cardio to kick the mucous out 😂 he totally would do that. “You getting outta breath? Good, that’s how we know it’s working.”

Ykw I just realized? He also TOTALLY has a sauna and a steam room and he’d fuking LOCK me in there to “get the toxins out”

I’m banging on the glass door

“Nathan let me OUT!”

“Five more minutes.”

“I’m going to pass out, Nate, this isn’t a joke!”

“You only think you’re going to pass out because you believe you’re going to pass out. It’s like that Win Hoff book I gave you.”

“Win Hoff? Nathan I didn’t read that stupid thing! Open the DOOR!”

“What? You SAW me swim in the glacier water and you still didn’t read it.”

“I do not wear my self flagellation like a BADGE like SOME people… Nathan I’m going to break the glass so help me—“

“We need to get your internal temperature to a temperature that’s uninhabitable for the virus. Four minutes. You’re doing great, honey.”

“Uninhabitable?! You’re insane! You know what else needs to habitate this body?? Me!”

But then he gets all squishy soft later on mmmmmm thank you for getting my brain thinking about this, I truly love it because I think that in a romantic situation, Nathan’s love languages would get lost in translation. Like the robot servant, the workouts, the sauna; he does it because that’s how HE would like to be shown care in the same scenario. He’s attacking the problem pragmatically, at the root, with the least amount of casualties, but he forgets how important tenderness is, and him learning that lesson in the end is the cherry on top.
