HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ARTHUR LESTER!!๐๐
(it wasnโt supposed to be a celebratory art, but I did finish it in time for his birthday, so-)
The yellow stars symbolise the Order of the Fallen Star, the red marks on the yellow sleeve represent the scars Arthur got, and the fire pattern refers to the lighter

@icryink day 2!!! I had to google the meaning of Tsundere bc I was unsure what it meant
(Edit: just remembered thereโs a vid explaining everything, gonna go watch it rq)
I know nothing about bfb or bfdi but my friend said I should draw them cuz I couldnโt think of anyone
Let him cook!!!!
Arthur: climbs out of the dark world, full of rage thinking about all the pain kayne has caused and ready to return the favour
kayne:
so embarrassing to get obsessed with your own oc but it doesn't fuel you creatively or motivate you at all you just sort of sit there. like yeah I've been thinking a lot about blorbo from my mind. no images of them exist in the world and they have maybe 3 personality traits so far. I would rather die than attempt to write about them. I've spent the last 48 hours rotating them in my brain though
On one hand, I think the Arthur Lester hate is so fucking valid. Weโve seen what heโs done in the past, the pain heโs put people through, the decisions he has made. *He* knows how horrible he was, and is. But Iโm so curious how much people think he should suffer to make up for it. This man has been to hell and back and gone through things that would make anyone snap, and he just keeps going โ to say that Arthur hasnโt suffered enough for his mistakes is an interesting thought. Even he hasnโt forgiven himself fully, and I donโt think he ever will. I guess I canโt really get on the โI hate Arthur Lester as a characterโ train like I see a lot of people doing โ Has he fucked up incredibly? Fuck yeah he has. Is he irredeemable? I donโt think so- and I think thatโs a very Malevolent message - no one is irredeemable or undeserving of forgiveness.
This is a lot of nonsensical rambling Iโm not too sure what the point Iโm trying to make is other than I get a little tired of the constant โArthur Lester is a shit protagonistโ discourse. Heโs not MEANT to be perfect, or even someone you need to root for 100% of the time, if you want that in a protagonist Iโm sure you can go somewhere else rather than complaining about him every episode ๐ญ

i cant believe harlan guthrie liked the idea of arthur lesters body parts all being separate blogs so much that he found a way to work it into canon!
that's it. too many of these eldritch spooky bitches need therapy and a LOT of it. somebody call
(This is about Kayne and Jon Sims, mostly.)
A non-exhaustive list of things from TMA that I was 100% certain were just fandom jokes before I actually listened to the podcast:
- The homophobic vase.
- Jon being kidnapped and forcibly moisturized for a month.
- Jon being kidnapped three separate times in the span of a single season.
- The "I won't kill a man because you're jealous." "Why not?!" exchange between Jon and Martin.
- There are like seven or more characters all named some variant of Michael.
- Melanie calling Jon "The Ceaseless Watcher's special little boy".
- Jon asking Martin if he was a ghost.
- The "Statement of Joe Spooky" quote from Tim.
- The "Except for the vampires." "Yeah, obviously except for the vampires." exchange between Jon and Gerry.
- Mike Crew trapping a dude on a ladder forever.
- Jon asking Martin to gouge his eyes out and run away with him.
- Nikola Orsinov. Like, just in general.
- Elias being a pothead.
- Georgie being literally incapable of feeling fear.
- The bone apple teeth.
- The guy who married a bug.
Never getting over how basically all the comments on a reuploaded Pin of Michael meeting Captain Foxy are literally just calling him autistic
HONESTLY THATS SO REAL THOUGH
I donโt post very often because Iโm often busy with schoolI draw sometimes idk
