Mind like a Rusty TV from the 20's

 Eh. Had one of those weeks where it feels like your brain is on a restart loop, so you have to cope by turning on autopilot and hoping nothing exciting happens until you can blink for a few times without feeling like you've fallen into an alternative dimension, or like your memory has been linked to a light switch that's being flicked on and off by an angry child trying to blow a fuse.

I know the vibes have been good. I just can't remember why. Or... anything, really.
Probably not that important in the long run. But still. Lil' frustrating.

 Which is why I drew this.

 I have to force myself to continue my train of thought often. Like pushing a train uphill by myself. And then my focus isn't focused on what I was thinking on, but is focused on focusing on focusing on thinking. And it gets tiring. And then I stop trying, and let my body travel without my brain. And I wake up to find myself doing something else two rooms from where I used to be; all a very smooth procedure, if you don't squint and analyze every little detail anyway. And it feels odd.

It even happens in the middle of talking to my family. I have to trust that the part of me that's still controlling my body can continue without me. Even if I can't remember what we were talking about. Or where we're going. Or why. Or when it will stop so I don't have to worry about forgetting to talk back. Or coming up with an answer to continue a conversation that I can't even remember being a part of.

My brain's always done this. It just feels like it's doing it a lot more than usual this week.
I miss thinking coherently.

Eyes of Storm

Hm.
Didn't mean to go this overboard on a shenanigan sketch, but I guess it gives me something to share with you tonight.

 If you're gonna get brainwashed, ya might as well have fun and go all out with it, amiright?

A Trio of Agents

 Well HOWDY, there! I'm back, but I don't have time to stay for long, so I'll post this and I'll be on my way.
I have things to do and dinner to eat before the clock strikes 7:30. So let's do this quickly.

My lil' cousin has been introducing me to some new music, and I've been drawing quick sketches inspired by them for fun.
If I hadn't had such a tiring week (or less time), I probably would've loved to try and colour this. But alas, my energies are needed elsewhere, and I can't indulge on silly sketches. Even if this took me almost 2 hours to make.
Weapons are hard to draw, maaan... Why do I gotta keep doing this to myself?
At least it was good drawing my agents again.

Inside Out Sketchdump

 Ha, well...
New month again. Always seems to happen just as I was getting used to the old one.
Ain't that the way.

Anyway. You're here to check what I've been up to since last time, yeah?
It's not much, but I can offer a little something.

Here you go -

 This pic was basically just me letting my hand do it's thing while my brain took five. Not planned. Not polished. Just... *motions* art. Y'know?

I'll admit, tho, some of the vibes have been rattling in my head for a few weeks. Joy humming and plinking on the controls is a, uh... concept drawing trying to expand my idea of my HQ console?
Like, obviously it's got a lot of buttons and levers and stuff, but I really liked the idea of there being a second layer underneath the official desk - like a hidden drawer - that when you pull it out, it has a very old fashioned 70's keyboard/synthesizer built into it.
(Maybe it glows rainbows. Maybe it doesn't. I haven't decided yet.)
It's not meant to control actions; just stimming and general shenanigans. Because even if I haven't played the piano since I was 15, I loved the finger movements and flying across the keyboard to my own beat. Much to the bemusement of my music teacher.
And pretending I can play a tune to a song in my head is very enjoyable. Even if it doesn't make sense.

Disgust adjusting Fear's tie is another vibe I've liked thinking about sometimes too. Because after Fear took up position as Lead Emotion, Disgust might not have approved of the change in leadership, but she did take her chance to adjust and straighten his attire as much as possible. Can't have a sloppy leader, right?
Disgust did her best with Joy, but the personification of happiness and bliss wasn't going to change her t-shirt and shorts for nobody. And good for her, too.

The other two little sketches was just... me needing something easy to draw. No special reason why I drew what I drew.
Kinda like the Sadness one, tho.

*******

Hm. Yeah...
Guess I just needed a break from being serious for a week.
(She says while she's always trying not to be serious)

Hopefully things will get better next week. We'll see.
But till then, you take care my dudes. See you around! And thanks for dropping by. :)
