"Do you mind, Blacky? I'm trying to reflect my terrible life choices..."

 Good evening, you fantastic few people who have made the choice to check out this post on this particularly fine night!

Been a pretty rough week for me. Trying to assert dominance over my stress and stuff, only to finally get results in the last few days. Not good results, but I'm at least back in charge again, so I'll take it. Hopefully I'll continue in an upward curve in the upcoming week. :)

As for drawing? Well...

Been drawing a certain Canadian Pyromaniac a lot lately.

*thumbs up*

Hunter's hair is equal parts wild, fun, and confusing. Just the way all hair-styles should be. 

Not satisfied with the lighting or shading, but eh. What can you do?

I'll work on improving it at a later date.

*...*

Well. Now that we've got all that out of the way, I'll catch you guys later!

*salutes myself out*

Midnight, The Spoon Lord

Hello again! Fancy seeing you back here.

We got ourselves another UV picture tonight.

Ah-HA! No spoon is safe from Midnight's paws! 

Silver spoons, golden spoons, wooden spoons, plastic spoons, and the odd spoon that's made from something like cookie dough... Nothing is too petty for him to steal!

Oh, it's easy to just take them back from him. He's perfectly open about it. It's the taking that gives him a buzz. And the hording. But he doesn't care if you steal them back from him.

He knows how to get more if he wants some. :)

(Ruby hates how he always steals her spoons the day she decides to make soup for dinner. "What do you expect us to eat with then? Forks??" *THWACK* "Give me those.")

Sino, but if she was an Alien Vet for the I.I.

Hello there! How you lot doin'?

Not much for me to say tonight. Been a bit of a boring week, I'm afraid. Sprained my creativity on Tuesday, and forced myself to rest until I felt like I could draw something without having to painfully squeeze my heart into submission.

But despite that I guess I've been good.

Drew this, anyway. :)

Anyone remember Sino? Blind anthro spider who used to be a sheep? Wears a checkered bandana?

 Well, I was thinking deeply about various anxieties earlier this week and was trying my best to come to terms with just how dumb and unlikely they all were... so I came up with an alien race who choose to become blind (either due to religion or culture, haven't decided yet) to comfort myself. 

I realized, like, five minutes after I came up with this idea that Sino would fit perfectly for this new alien group. 

Her personality is quite calming and philosophical, plus she's really gentle and empathetic. Really cheered me up arguing with her about the importance of sight, and how I shouldn't worry about it.

I like all my spider characters. But besides Fang, not a lot of them have a chance to be used for something.

 At least Sino has somewhere else to live now! Even if she isn't a spider anymore... :)

Anyway! Enjoy your week as best as you can! And for those that are working, I hope you do your best. 

See you around!

Pat & Blacky (The World Reader)

Hi there.

I think I'm going through one of my phases again. Y'know, the kind where I just... don't really love anything I draw?

Yeah.

Gonna try and be positive and kind to myself. 

Or at least not force myself to try harder and harder, to see if I can break through this.

I was planning to try and write up a little description about these two and the story they're in, but I don't think I have the energy to spare...

Just know that they're a little like Ruby and Midnight, but Medieval and a lot younger. Also they have a magic book that has a map that shows them where they need to go (very useful).

You and Me

WELL. After spending a literal (and very productive) week drawing Gravity Falls for my sister, I thought it was time I did something for myself.

Something easy. Maybe a little cute.

 And 100% nostalgic.

While sharing and listening to stuff with my sister during this week, a certain song was brought to my attention again, and it gave me major feels.

  It was a song I remembered quite fondly, hearing it years and years ago on Eurovision (back in the day when I got up at 4am to watch it live with my more sadistic family members) and I couldn't help but imagine Ruby and Sapphire as I heard it once more.

Those two were closer than sisters, once. And while they did rekindled their relationship in their teenage years, I think they realize that they'll never get back what they had.

But they're both okay with that.

They have good memories of a time that could've easily been far worse for them.

I don't see much of Sapphire in my mainstream stories anymore (since Ruby and Midnight's domestic shenanigans keep me pretty occupied) but I still think of her from time to time.

Maybe I'll get Aeron to track her down for me... Spy on her for a bit. Heck, maybe even somehow manage to worm his way into her adventuring group?

Hmm...

I wont force anything. Sapphire will tell me what she's been up to one day.

I've got time.

Til then. *raises glass* Cheers, girls!
