I don’t know what it is about Geek & Sundry shows but I always end up shipping the thing that everyone else in the fandom says is meant to be purely platonic. First it was Percy and Keyleth, and now I’m having Jasper/Annabelle feels... halp.
Wow, these druids are really in character!
Hahaha. The cutest way to TPK :)
Total party wipe in my DnD game the other night. Damn op kittens.
This is the pinnacle of art.
I mean, it spans the full range of emotion. Mystery and curiosity, struggle and anger, generosity and adorableness, it has it all. And what greater art is there than cats?

Aaaw <3 I’m sure Opportunity and K-9 will be great friends!
(There has to be at least one K-9 still in storage in there somewhere, right?)
But actually though, could you imagine if they made Opportunity a companion? The Doctor could give it a few upgrades; I bet it’d be a great adventuring buddy!
Oppy deserves a happy ending, okay
So I did some Oswald Cobblepot-inspired nail art last month for Halloween and I thought it would be a nice way to kick off my tumblr :) The left hand features a penguin, an umbrella, and some pinstriping; the right hand’s a bit simpler since I’m right handed, but I tried to make a brocade pattern like Oswald’s ties and a glitter ombre like his glitter coat. (In case it wasn’t clear, I’m talking about the Gotham TV version of the Penguin.)
Also, yes, these are my real nails, and my left thumbnail was over an inch long (cuticle to tip) at the time. Fun fact: I changed a flat tire that month, fabulous nails and all (though I did have a few chips to patch after that).
I took a multitude of pictures--literally hundreds--but the top coat I used was so shiny a bunch of them had a glare, but I guess what I’m trying to say is, if you want to see more pictures or a close-up of any nail in particular, let me know, because I have plenty :) I should also probably share the tutorial I followed for the penguin nail and the other nail art I used for inspiration.
BroTP or OTP, they’re adorable together and this is super cute art. Fairs and fireworks make for such pretty backgrounds <3
I guess I could maybe get behind them as a couple... As long as they’re happy.
I didn’t say????? They’re my new fav now😉
My boi Alexei deserves everything, of course his American boyfriend!!!! And cherry slurpee!!!!!!!
My gosh this is so beautiful! It does an excellent job of echoing the videos’ color palette while still creating its own vibe, and I just love how soft yet realistic the drawing style is.
I love how art can inspire other art. And man, those music videos were a ride. I wish they hadn’t killed off those characters after just two music videos; they were pretty compelling and it would’ve been cool to see more stories from them. But they sure can tell a story.
Which, speaking of, it was interesting to see the elements that were reminiscent of Umbrella Academy in those storylines. I also watched a video about the struggles Gerard went through in the earlier days and I have a deeper appreciation for the connection he must have with Klaus. It’s fascinating to string all of this together.
But yes I have many feelings for this gorgeous Party Poison <3
I’LL HOLD THEM BACK 🔫🧨💣
So I’ve been thinking I’ll probably do sharpie tatts again for my MCR show next week, and it’s a little soon yet to be drawing the ones I’ll actually have on for the show, but it’s gotten me yearning to draw on myself again, and with all the excitement about Badflower tonight (or last night now I’m posting it, but they open again tonight too), I thought, what if I just... gave myself a Badflower sharpie tattoo. For funsies?
So if you’re unfamiliar with their band logo, it looks like this:
So I started by attempting to draw their signature flower on my wrist. I decided to do it in blue rather than black just because I prefer to have some color in my sharpie tatts, even if they’re monochrome. It didn’t exactly turn out super accurately, but, well... the band’s not called Goodflower now are they? Lol. Then it just worked out that I put their name underneath rather than attempting to go on top of the flower, which would’ve required more planning and less coloring in the center. So then it looked like this:
but I wanted to do a little bit more, and incorporate some lyrics into it too. I started looking through some of the lyrics of my favorite Badflower songs, at which point I remembered, oh yeah, a lot of these are really quite grim, lol; I did come up with a few potential selections, but none of them were Vibing just right. But then I was looking at 30 and I saw “so raise up your glasses to going out of fashion!” and it just clicked into place. I mean, one of the great things about doing sharpie tatts instead of real permanent tattoos is that the things one draws on don’t have to be your only all-time favorite absolute best picks from all possible options; I considered going through more options after that, but I felt good about that line, so I went ahead and added it in.
It felt energizing and defiant, full of weird-and-proud energy; it also seemed a bit appropriate after the night’s twitter dramas. Of course, I have trouble planning spacing and I’m just freehanding this (all the more reason I’m glad this isn’t a ‘real’ tattoo), so the “to going out of fashion” part wound up on two lines, and my script is kind of funky and hard to read in places, but you know, it’s probably not going to last a full week, and I like it. Actually I fell asleep while writing this earlier and I just woke up at like 5:30 and looked at my arm and went “what the-- oh yeah I did do that,” but this is another good thing about sharpie tattoos, that it’s okay when they just sort of appear on your arm in the morning, lol. The text in a circle around the roughly circular logo also reminds me of the Red Hot Chili Peppers logo, come to think of it, but that’s not a bad thing I suppose. Anyways, I am really quite fond of it, so I wanted to go ahead and show off my pics while it’s fresh. “Raise up your glasses to going out of fashion” indeed! I love Badflower, I love their music, it’s 6am now and I want to get back to sleep and this post is probably messy and in need of editing, but I’m going to go ahead and post about my funky little Badflower tattoo now because it’s weird and I like it.
I have recently discovered that cat cosplay is a thing. In fact, I think it’s my new favorite thing :)
“You’re just as sane as I am.”
I never realized that cat memes had a recorded point of origin in history! These pictures are not only fun but also historically significant :) I learned something today. Thank you, Mr. Pointer, for your wonderful contribution to our society.
Aaaah the feeeeeels, the beautiful, complicated feels.
Looking forward to these two living happily ever after and occasionally making empty murder threats against one another whilst being clearly in love...
You paid Hugo Strange to save me? Why? What was I supposed to do? Let you die?
Welcome, dear traveller, to our fantastical lande shrouded in swirling violet mists. Here we study how stories shape our lives, how words weave wonders before our eyes. Here we are enamoured of love and the connections betwixt people. Here we seek daring adventures in our wild lande, delving into the unknown at every turn. But mostly, here you'll find my obsession with any number of things, like Doctor Who, the Vampire Diaries, or any number of others from the ever-shifting tide of obsessions through which I cycle. My more-used sideblog is blagueofchaos if you ever wish I posted more :) She/her, 28
