my wounds are sealed with gold, because if a cup breaks, it is reassembled, filling the cracks with gold. this is how they emphasize the beauty of what was once broken. people believe that if something has experienced suffering and has a history, it becomes more beautiful and more valuable. but my wounds are so painful and deep that the gold can't stand it.
I'm sick of it.
Watched madoka it was fire i liked the knight girl
Reblog to kill it faster
The ringing in the audio reminded me of when LBD messes with MK’s head so I created this
i thought too hard about insect motifs got a little silly and made... a lot lmao these versions of the characters are from @sm-baby's amazing digital carnival au!! full images and rambling about insect choices are gonna get stuck under the cut... it'll be a bit long and i will be putting photos of real bugs down there so be mindful
pomni: "butterfly"
inspirational species are black swallowtails mostly for the shape, and malay red harlequins mostly for the pattern
carnival pomni's actually the one that kickstarted this whole set... i drew her hat in a way that reminded me of butterflies, went "wait...", then i fully leaned into it :)
jax: "centipede"
there was no specific species for jax. without being able to use color, they were too similar to pick any out... i have included a giant centipede just for reference though since it was mainly larger centipedes i used for inspiration
anddd there's a little bonus sketch for how pre-sentience jax might've looked with a centipede outfit... he gets a bug scarf and some goggles!
ragatha: "ladybug"
inspirational species was the twice-stabbed ladybug chosen because the inverted color scheme looked the best out of all the ones i tried, and also because it's a metal name and we know ragatha's good with a knife... stabby stab... i did add more than two spots to the dress though, it just looks cooler lol
gangle: "spider"
inspiration was the spinybacked orb weaver which i was absolutely ecstatic to find because come on that is the perfect spider for gangle like look at it!! it looks like her mask, it's got red, it's got gold on the limbs, literally twinning
zooble: "mantis"
inspiration was the spiny flower mantis which, like with gangle, i feel is pretty much perfect for zooble... they come in many colors (including pink), have abstract patterns, and it gave me the excuse to cover zooble in spikes :D fun
and no kaufmo because i'm lazy and he's dead (sorry kaufmo fans but am i wrong), and the rest don't have bug names that i know of?
i still want to draw the carnival characters in their regular looks sometime, i just got really really inspired by the idea of secret skins and bug-themed outfits and went a liiittle haywire :P
anyways if you read all that you're a real one and you've got too much time on your hands... if you didn't, i understand, i get wordy, sorry :'D okay i think that's all byeee
honestly? that one David Tennant Richard II Kiss™ is my favourite acted kiss in history
look how ridiculously tender and how achingly desperate it is. so gentle, so kind, and yet so selfish at the same time. i've never seen anything quite so human
just. just look at these
there's something so genuine and chaste about this kiss, while also being gorgeously passionate and heated and...... it's just perfect
Us aromantics love Nikolai >:3
This is the flag of Sudan, they´re currently a genocide happening there as well but please distinguish this flag from the Palestinian one
THIS is the flag of Palestine and her people, look at it and commit both flags to memory. Call for justice in both countries with their proper flags.
do you want the world to explode, chuuya? :( i dont think so
I'm so ass at measuring distance that if I woke up in a Saw trap and the only requirement was to "run 30 ft, give or take a foot or two" I would still fuck it up and get slaughtered
