This is just something silly idea I got that started with the last drawing from months ago 😅 The Flynn-Fletcher siblings end up accidentally in a costume store. Dylan at this point doesn't find anything weird anymore when it has to do with Phineas and Ferb XD

I’M FINALLY DONE WITH REDESIGNING

I freakin' love it

[bullseyelover]

i’ve been thinking about dex’s story in born again.

how, in universe, the world saw dex after the events of josies, and after his trial. how quick everyone was to believe he just snapped and went on a revenge fueled rampage at josies. and the sad thing is, that makes sense in the worst possible way. because the world is always going to be more comfortable writing someone like dex off as just another mentally ill guy who lost control. that’s the story people are used to. it’s easier, simpler, and it doesn’t require any deep thought or empathy. it doesn’t ask them to look at who failed him, who used him, who broke him down. it doesn’t ask them to understand the difference between someone being dangerous and someone being made into a weapon. and most people just don’t care enough to look closer.

and what gets me is how many people refuse to hold both truths about dex at the same time. that he’s a victim and a perpetrator. that he did horrific things and was still deeply, painfully used. i hate how often people online will reduce it to “oh you just like him because he’s hot” when you try to talk about him with nuance. like no. dex is complex. he’s the wound and the knife. he is someone who’s suffered, been manipulated, abandoned, used like a tool, but that doesn’t erase what he’s done. it doesn’t mean people weren’t hurt, or that his violence didn’t matter. you can see his pain and still hold him accountable. you can understand where it came from and still be horrified by the outcome. none of that is contradictory. it’s just real. he’s a character full of contradictions, and that’s part of what makes him so compelling. reducing him to one thing, victim, villain, psycho, it just flattens him into a version of himself that isn’t true.

and even in the show, it’s like no one really wants to see the whole truth of who dex is. it’s easier for them to believe “crazy guy goes violent” than to admit that someone vulnerable was groomed and turned into a weapon by someone with more power. for example in episode 8 where matt slams dex’s head into the table, and when the guard walks in, matt lies and says dex did it to himself. and the guard doesn’t even hesitate to believe it. he just immediately goes, “you crazy asshole.” he doesn’t even question it. because that’s already the version of dex they’ve decided is true. they don’t need proof, they don’t need context. they hear “he hurt himself” and go “of course he did.” and that’s what’s so brutal about it. even matt bought into that narrative at first. even though he knew dex had worked for fisk after the events of season three. and he listened to dex’s tapes. he believed that dex was a man who woke up one day on impulse and decided to kill foggy eight years after the events of season three. because he believed dex to be a violent and disturbed psychopath. because that’s the story society already believes. many people believe that mentally ill people are inherently dangerous. quiet violence is scarier than loud chaos. so people don’t ask questions. they just assume the worst. so dex being quiet and restrained in his rage in the trial scene just confirmed what they already thought about him. and that kind of widespread erasure makes dex’s story even more tragic. not just what happened to him, but how no one really sees it. not fully.

and that invisibility messes with him too. dex already struggles with identity. he barely knows who he is when no one’s giving him a script to follow. so when the whole world reduces him to nothing but a monster, a rampage shooter, it probably confirms the worst things he already fears about himself. even if he knows deep down it’s not the whole truth, it gets in his head. like maybe they’re right. maybe he really is just broken and dangerous and beyond saving. that he is an animal and nothing more. and that’s what hurts him. because he tried. he tried to be good. he tried to follow the rules. for so many years because he genuinely wanted to be a better version of himself. he tried to be useful, to matter, to be someone. and in the end, none of it mattered. no one remembers that he tried. they only see the end result. they only see the damage.

and that weight, the failure, the guilt, the grief of never being seen clearly, that’s something he has to carry alone. it’s what makes his story so heavy to sit with. and none of this is to say that dex isn’t still responsible for what he’s done. evidently he knew what he was doing. even if he was manipulated into it. he made choices, and those choices hurt people. he’s not innocent. he’s not good. he’s a villain. that’s who he is, that’s who he’s becoming, and he’s also someone with borderline personality disorder. someone who was manipulated, used, pushed to the edge, and weaponized. those things can all exist at once. he’s not either a tragic victim or an evil monster. he’s both. and when people act like empathizing with him or understanding where he came from is the same as excusing what he did, it’s just dishonest. like no one’s out here saying “my poor baby” and pretending he didn’t kill people. it’s just acknowledging that there’s more to him than what most are willing to see. that doesn’t absolve him. it just complicates him. and if that makes people uncomfortable, maybe they should ask why it’s so much easier to believe someone like dex is just a psycho killer than to accept that he’s human. flawed, dangerous, and human.

if people are saying that about comic bullseye, then yeah, it makes sense. that version of him is literally written to be an unstable psychopath who kills people for fun. he’s meant to be scary and empty and cruel, and that’s it. that’s what makes his character so fun to read. the needless violence, the grin on his face while he commits it. but dex isn’t only that. dex is bullseye, but he’s a version with so much more nuance and humanity. he is capable of everything that comic bullseye is capable of. but he has more contradictions, more depth. he’s not just evil for the sake of it. he’s broken and angry and used and spiraling, and all of that is still his responsibility, but it’s layered. he’s not just a killer. he’s a person. comic bullseye is the foundation, but dex was built on top of that. same character, same legacy, just finally given complexity. he has all the traits of his comic self, but there’s pain behind it now. there’s grief, there’s loneliness, there’s a desperate want to be seen and loved. he’s bullseye in every way, but now he’s also human and real.

[OCs] finished all of them now!! still subject to change ofc, but i'm pretty happy with it 😭

this took me a few months to fully conceptualize, but i'm glad i did! a lot of these guys are just background fodder, but i still wanted to know them as characters, and it helped me to flesh out the world a lot, both in the visual sense and lore

and also it's just fun!! hope you enjoyed looking at them too, prommy i will not be normal about them

🏖️ shore’s celebration outfit 🎉

Yes, I am 100% aware it’s weeks before the actual event drops but 🙂‍↕️ I’m so hype for it that I started doodling and ended up with a design I’m pretty happy with. Can’t say I’m satisfied with the colors (it’s way too much compared to what the canon characters are wearing), but I guess I can claim “it works for her specifically” because usually Miss Raven’s outfits stand out from the others in some way. This is to help signify that she’s from “outside the story” or is an oddity at NRC.

I pulled inspiration from both Ariel and Ursula (well, Vanessa). The hair shape is inspired by both Vanessa's waves and the general silhouette of Ariel's. The big bow in the back is similar to the one Ariel wears on her date with Eric. You can't see it from the front, but the bow is secured with a golden clasp in the shape of the tiara on Ariel’s wedding dress look.

Raven's earrings are the same shape as Ursula's, and she wears a golden spiral shell necklace similar to Ursula's as well. The difference is that Raven's is on a string of pearls (similar to Rook’s). I wanted to incorporate a lot of pearls, which is why you'll see it beading her big hair bow (forming a pseudo-fish scale design) and dotting her skirt. The coral bracelet on her right hand also has pearls (like Riddle’s), and the silver ring on her left hand has pearls too. The pearl ring is actually a callback to an ancient post when a Jade roleplayer gifted Miss Raven a promise ring.

I originally also wanted to give her an oyster and pearl corsage, but then I realized Malleus already had one 😅 so I skipped it… It was probably for the best, it might have made her top look too crowded.

Her dress is a combination of Ariel's shipwreck dress and Vanessa's normal outfit, wedding dress, and the live action Vanessa's doll. There is netting incorporated into her big bow, as well as a rope-like ribbon securing her center. The pattern on the hem of her dress also resembles netting, but doubles in creating the illusion of mermaid scales. I also gave her wedges with straps that resemble rope. The shape of the dress is very close to Vanessa's wedding dress, save for a few added ruffles. The topmost layer of her skirt opens in the middle and is bunched off to resemble a mermaid's tail. She also has a removable violet cloak, similar to what Vanessa wore on her first appearance along the seashore. I thought it was a good reference to include, and it suits Raven's character since she tends to be mostly covered up. (The dress is strapless!)

The colors are inspired by Ariel's green tail, purple seashell bra (+ Vanessa's dress), and red hair. Again, probably too colorful of a look compared to the canon characters, but I think it makes her stand out in a good(ish) way.

Jade and Riddle’s suits are mostly black, while Malleus and Rook’s looks are white/cream with black accents. Miss Raven can be the other extreme for the group (mostly cream/white and with a lot more color), ie the “light” to the dark. It suits her www
