also here’s the song that inspired the train setting:

I also have a short fic for this drawing; it’s not canon to the first work I wrote for them but is really more of an AU. I kinda want to write more of it—why is it so urgent that the whole team has to be together? How exactly are they gonna do what they’re supposed to be doing?

My claws clicked on the metal floor as I raced down the mostl…

@whalekeeper @anyone else who wants to take a look

here’s the finished artwork! what do y’all think?

Other than that:

• I don’t hate the stereotypical four elements thing, nor do I dislike light and shadow being added to the list. Actually, the funny thing I realized was that it’s basically the states of matter:

–fire=plasma

–air=gas

–water=liquid

–earth=solid

so yeah there’s my take on that.

• mythical and extinct creatures being real…

@theducktator yeah come to think of it that is really weird.

Inflation rates must be through the roof.

@theducktator

paperwork, insurance, college, taxes, a job…good luck! XD

I’m gonna need it haha, although I was able to strike out one of those in that my parents are ok with me not going to college as long as I train in some kind of trade I can survive on.

@whalekeeper

Honestly, their economic system makes no sense. They just have infinite money???

@whalekeeper honestly I loved the worldbuilding, there was just one problem with it:

the fact that elves completely discount all human science. It doesn’t really make sense to me. As a person who’s very invested in science, I just can’t see how literally everything we come up with–every theory, every calculation–could be wrong. Don’t get me…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yes! It’s back!

My love of dance has influenced my attitude toward critique a lot. It’s taught me to want corrections. One thing my favorite ballet teacher always says is that listening to your corrections is the best way to improve, and I’ve heard variations of this from the other teachers as well. The aforementioned favorite…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Oh wow, you’re an adult now. Yeah, paperwork, insurance, college, taxes, a job…good luck! XD

@whalekeeper I definitely will!!

@elishavet-pidyon yep, cheesecake! My mom makes a really good one.

@rae how did I miss this?

I might be back with tips, but if I can’t think of any I’ll just see what everyone else has to say.

@ellette-giselle thank you!!!!

@whalekeeper lol it was my mom that made it, I just decorated it

@theducktator 18. It’s crazy. My dad had me sign some healthcare paperwork to confirm I’m staying under their plan and not splitting off to pay for my own, and my brother was like “Welp, now that you’re 18 you’re gonna have to start doing paperwork.”

@elishavet-pidyon

I imagine scenes and plot points behind almost any instrumental song. But when it’s from Apollo 13, which I have never watched… I’m not perfectly comfortable just connecting the two. And of course it feels awkward to explain to people.

yep, pretty much. I see my own stories playing out in my mind, or the plot of the origi…[Read more]

Syph

He had to what? He blinked at Eddie. A dark blue flush crept up his neck. Water droplets appeared and disappeared in the air around him.

“Oh. Guppies. For a dance? But I don’t know of any other spritelings to pair with. It could take an indefinite amount of time to even find someone who wouldn’t be—oh tadpoles—…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Oh my goodness… I used to watch that so much with my siblings 😂 You’re right, it was a good show

yesss!!! I used to love it. I had an animal-themed birthday party when I was like 8 or 9 because of it.

I’m not really into it anymore, but an online friend of mine writes crossover fanfictions and the wild kratts characters appear in the…[Read more]

@esther-c yes, this feels a little more like a letter! good job!!

@ellette-giselle lol those memes are great!!

Movies are pretty much never better than the book, but I can think of a few movies which were almost as good.

@mineralizedwritings

Aw, I’m sorry!! I’ve been praying for you. Is it the health stuff, or just everything?

I’m doing pretty good. I still struggle with my OCD a bit, but for the most part it’s better. I do still have bad days though.

Okay. What time zone are you in? I believe the next one will be at 11 EST, but I guess that still counts…[Read more]
