A collection of experimental Skitty drawings I've been working on since early May- sorry for the lack of art lately, chronic illnesses have been taking toll but I'm glad to have made something that finally showcases how a couple of Skitty's attacks/Pokémon moves work. It feels really nice to try some new things and to push my Kirby poses/expressions. And right before ArtFight too! :D Read under the cut for more info on how her attacks work:

Generally speaking, she uses her retractable claws, tail, + a variety of kick and grab/throw attacks in battle; but oftentimes she'll use compatible yet quirky variants of Pokémon moves too. Essentially, Skitty's Pokémon moves come with a catch- they use up a lot of her stamina and overuse of particularly strong moves can actually cause her to pass out. Not only that, but some function differently due to the fact that she isn't entirely a Pokémon. For example, Thunder Wave, a move she likes to use in order to quickly paralyze a foe, doesn't function as a Special Attack. Instead, she has to make physical contact for the move to work as intended- causing her to use her claws in combination to ensure the foe cannot escape before the electricity takes hold. All of her moves are overall weaker than an actual Pokémon's as well. Though, she doesn't have a limit of moves she can "know" at any given time at least.

#geez when is the last time Ive drawn her? September 2023?? cant believe I neglect my own sona/account mascot like this SMH #also dont be ashamed if you misread the signature down at the bottom right as “shitty-kirby”. bc I sure did and Im the one who wrote it LMA #speaking of ArtFight... totally have my team picked. tho cant promise how active Ill participate this year #game design uni major here and I desperately need practice in Blender before the next semester kicks off #anyway. tag time!#kirby #kirby right back at ya #hoshi no kaabii #kirby of the stars #kirby anime #kirby oc #kirby fc #kirby fan character #pokemon #skitty #chromatic abberation #eyestrain #<- just in case

saw a post about projecting your ethnicity onto a character and started missing vespa ilkay. so so bad

#pov u grow up in a 3rd world country(/planet) where healthcare workers are exported by the thousands like cheap produce to richer countries #it's your ticket out of poverty as long as you can deal with the loneliness the separation from everyone you know the discrimination etc #ive never talked about my hc that vespas mother was one of them sending money every month visiting every couple of years until it just stop #like why return to the swamps when youre doing fine working on a richer planet w much better living conditions #cost of living rises every year. sending home a % of your salary used to be enough to support your husband and daughter and then it isnt #you know how it goes #vespa is also dead set on this path until ranga realizes that hemorrhaging healthcare workers leaves them with little to none of their own #students on scholarships or in community/state universities are bound by return service agreements and are forbidden to leave the country #until theyve rendered a few years of work on ranga to pay back their tuition + as a really shitty solution to the brain drain problem #this is real in my country btw but my professors say a lot of ppl do break their rsa's and fucked off to work in other countries LOL #our state unis can barely afford decent facilities they do nottt have the budget to chase down their own alumni in other countries!#but the mental image is a bit funny #vespa ilkays first crime: tinakasan ang rsa #i do also think it lines up with her having a network of med friends everywhere in the galaxy (heart of it all) you kind of go into pre/med #expecting most of your classmates to leave to work in other countries eventually. mine are aiming for the usa / uae / europe / japan etc #anyway whether vespa breaks her rsa or not she leaves ranga asap decides to switch careers and the rest is history #i also deeply love the fact that she's superstitious i'm very sad it wasn't highlighted more (i've only heard s1-3)#as someone who did grow up in a rural area and went to more albularyos/folk healers than doctors in my childhood. (they never failed me)#lots of folk illnesses (ex. balis; pasma) local medical superstitions (dont eat noodles in hospital; youll have a really toxic shift) etcc #theres also a lot of potential in tying her past as a rangian + med student + assassin to me idk how to word this properly #being raised on cautionary tales of not to touch/disturb anything in the swamps then being given free reign to poke & prod at things in her #lab classes (now with the proper ppe)....she was having so much fun with the curemother prime too lmao #years of walking hanging bridges docks boathouses in ranga etc gave her great balance & stealth #cracking open alien shellfish in the swamps to cutting open bodies for studying then for assassination....#I MISS HER SO MUCH BALIK KN SAKEN 😭😭😭😭😭😭#i get why most people + the canon focuses on her being an assassin bc people find that cooler i guess #but vespa being a swamp girl > 3rd world med student > assassin is so personal To Me. the whole pipeline. eugh.#skl.txt

my friend pisses me off soooooo bad

#i text her first to ask abt how her essay is going wish her luck 2 times and she doesnt even like the message or say anything she just #changes the topic and then leaves me on read. okay #plus shes been getting so weirdly paranoid that im talking shit abt her to other ppl just bc ive finally made some other friends that arent #her after 1.5 years of suffering alone at my uni #(which i seriously to be honest do just bc shes been getting on my nerves with a lot of things lately)#but like man . throughout the 1.5 years that weve been talking to each other we havent progressed enough to call each other by #our first names to get the other to turn around etc i dont think we r close enough for me to abandon the wonderful religious practice of #sometimes discussing the things that your 1 friend does that piss you off with your other friends but then still hanging out with them #not because youre some sort of irredeemably evil two faced motherfucker but because thats just a normal part of having social relationships #mp #like i get that insecurity sucks and its a shitty feeling etc but ive literally dealt with this my whole cringe embarrassing childhood &#teenage years LOL like as long as your friends still make a conscious decision to spend time with u & u have fun together #then i think you dont need to worry. which is what i do so #the sun will rise again tomorrow

Anyway today I went to a really interesting conference (not really but I don't know how to call it in english?) at uni and mannn

#i have the audio bc i'm a creep i'm a weirdo i like recording interesting stuff i go to but. i can't really share it. but i wish i could!!!#today was a case of: academia being YEARS ahead of Society is one thing you generally know in an abstract manner but sometimes this #really slaps you in the face. in a good way!!#the first time i ever heard an italian talk about the shitty-ness of the existence of a strict binary when it comes to ~biological sex~#the first!!!!!!!#*existence of blablabla within the general social concensus #mytext #uni

#i don't normally post stuff like that here but i need a place where i can just vent within it being seen by those people #anyway ok i just wish my friends were my friends more alsksjdj #i see ppl with their best friends how they talk about them what they do together and it just makes me sad #bc i want to have someone like that to do stuff and be silly with and talk and just hang out and i miss my best friend #bc we don't do that anymore #we've barely seen each other last year and when we do it's always just briefly and we never get to talk about deeper themes #some things i'm desperate to talk to her about and we've always done that but now she never has time for me #it feels like I've been replaced by her gf and they're doing everything together and i guess that's what you do you abandon your friends #no I'm not bitter or jealous. at least I'm trying not to be #she also has other friends a different group from uni that I've never met and i see she's having fun with them #and i don't have any of that and I really want to have a group of friends i just can't seem to find any #and we also barely even text anymore. sometimes i reach out and then it can take over a day for her to answer and it just feels shitty #ik she has her reasons and she's not doing it bc she doesn't want to talk or doesn't like me lol but it sucks that we can't even text #and i can't help but wonder if she does that to other people or if she's texting her gf right away and ughhhh #she feels so distant but i don't want that. i don't want us to be like that #i only have two real good friends that I've known forever and my other friend also sucks at reaching out and has her bf and friends #who i know but i'm also not really a part of that group. so basically i never see my friends and i feel fucking lonely woohoo nothing new #i want to have friends who reach out and just casually text me and i can tell them about my day and i see them at least once a week #and we can just hang out and have fun and god i sound so pathetic i don't even have that #somehow i missed the call where everyone started having their group of adult friends and a romantic partner and I'm still stuck #everyone just kind of has their own lives and I'm not a part of it #it just hit me again today i literally had a dream i met a bunch of people and we were having fun and it reminded me of how lonely i am lol #*without it being seen wow great typo in the first sentence that i can't change now #anyway i wish there were songs about this particular situation that i could listen to and be emo but i can't find any rip

#so. I relapsed #mid-december and I received some shitty news and I just. went on a four day bender #alcohol drugs unsafe sex the whole shebang #and I feel like fucking shit abt it #I'd been clean for a year and a half and I just threw it down the fucking drain #it's so stupid #my therapist says that I should be kinder to myself bc I'm human and that I should take it as a victory that it was only four days instead #of months like it used to be #and also if this had happened a year ago I would be dead #like that is not a joke #I would be dead #I was so deeply deeply suicidal but now I'm doing wayyy better mentally etc etc #but like. I still don't feel good abt it #and also now I'm constantly craving a line of coke but I can't have it #unlike last time I was in uni and had exams where I was using and it helped me (surprisingly)#apparently when you have adhd coke can help you write a spectacular bachelor dissertation #anyway.#personal shit

genuinely i want to give up

#elia txts #logging off after this post i promise but im just so upset #i want to finish uni bc then i have something to show for the past 6 yrs of my life #(to capitalist society anyway bc i doubt i will ever be able to write again after this. let alone under a deadline)#i want to give up #this was not worth ruining over a year of my life for. i feel soooo bad #it's all gonna be over in 22 days one way or another but if i don't pass with flying colors whats the point of all the pain lol #and even if i pass it's just gonna be a degree i will never use bc i am unable to work anything except my shitty side job #which is fine!!! im fortunate enough to have a partner who loves his moderately wellpaying job #i could just chill. there is no need for all this pain #wanting 2 give up three weeks from the deadline is so dumb but i genuinely genuinely am at my breaking point #if i finish this up i will finish it to perfection otherwise there was no point to all this suffering #but also i genuinely cannot take another day of this. lol
