reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something

there are two competing sects on this website - one that uses the word "spicy" to mean "neurodivergent" and one that uses the word "spicy" to mean "sexual content." i do not like either of them

My Art Summary for 2024

Ok, I know I should've posted that early but I wasn't mentally feeling good so... I've had enough seeing someone else's art being posted without permission.

Everyone, we talking about this lil art thief here... Called...

(Translated from Greek to English screenshots below) ↓↓↓

(translated screenshots cuz she is not good with English so I found out she speaks only greek. And don't mind her capitals, that's how she would talk.)

These are the screenshots. I tried to translate this shit.

As a Greek speaker I tried to ask her to take Asktrio's art down in greek but she would still talk nonsense and say things like "But I don't copy", and she even tried to tell me that she asked the artist and took permission to upload them like I'm some tiny dumbass and think "oH oKaY tHeN yOu aSkEd fOr pErMisSiOn".

I told her to take her "art" down cuz she traced but she didn't understand the word "trace" so I said "copy". She would talk to me about Springtrap from FNaF 3 when I was talking about art theft. And then she said she's an "Influencer" and "TikToker".

In the end she told me her actual name (that's how I know it's a she) and her age, even where she lives (I'm not telling anyone about her name or age or where she lives) all I'm gonna say is that she's somewhere 7th to 9th grade (middle school).

She then asked ME about my age, name and where I live. She talked about her two friends who told their names to me and that they are her classmates. I also tried to tell her to not post that stuff online because I was a stranger to her and then she replied with "YoU aRe Not A StrAnGeR" .

Anyone that wants to text her to take down the art she posted, it WON'T work, sadly. She only speaks greek, doesn't make sense so the translate was a bit rough to understand what she meant and denies to take down art, even the traced art style ones.

Don't waste your time tryin' to talk with her. Please report her as hard and as many times as you can. I really hope she gets banned. Let's just try our best to report her.

@asktrio516 / @dilemmaverse I'm sorry you're going through a little shit like this.

Send this gal a lot of love <3 <3 she deserves it <3 <3

A quick update for anyone who cares.

Hey y’all.

I’ve been on something of a hiatus recently from posting art, and there’s a few reasons why.

1- I’ve recently landed a new and much better job, which I’ve been desperately trying to find for around a year now. As I’ve been with my current employer over 4 years (basically almost all of my 20s so far) the process is taxing both mentally, emotionally and time wise. It’s an amazing change in my life which I’ve been working hard towards, but a massive one, and it’s not easy.

2- I have opened commissions again and am focusing on these both to make extra income as prices everywhere have shot up, and to try and get my art out there. These take priority along with my personal projects with my husband. I’ve been getting a lot of commissions since opening them which is absolutely fantastic, and I’m so grateful to everyone who’s commissioned me ( ˘ ³˘)♥︎ . (To the two people who tried to scam me, fuck you, I hope you burn in hell for taking advantage of struggling artists)

3- I feel somewhat jaded with this fandom and how many people within the community treat me and other artists. I have enough of posting art only to see it stolen by some dumb cunt. I have enough of seeing nothing but requests and demands for more art in my inbox rather than genuine questions or interactions. I’ve been labelled as fatphobic by this fandom despite me struggling with my weight and even drawing these body styles in my normal art. Safe to say, I need a break to get over the toxic things that are starting to drive me away. I really want to avoid this from happening, as TTTE is very special to me and I don’t want to abandon this blog or my AU. But a good chunk of this fandom is making that very difficult.

If you are here for nothing but daily art, I’m sorry but that’s just not happening. If you are one of the handful of people who genuinely care about this blog, this AU and this community, I see you, and I love you guys. You are literally the last thread keeping me here, and stopping me from deactivating this blog. Y’all are to thank.

I hope this clears some things up for anyone who’s wondering where I am, or anyone who cares.

I will still be active here and in my private messages, I just won’t be posting art for a little while.

Thank you to everyone who understands.

Love, admin ❤️

Happy Birthday 2023 Tilden!

Decided to use @mewtwoandme's bases to draw out my mewtwo characters, both future and present

Don't ask questions, things will make sense in the future

These were super fun to color in

Some Houndoom fusions from the fusion generator I decided to draw out.

These were the ones I liked the most, but I'll probably draw more in the future

Tiny Du’met for @milllkaa. 

I'm sure he'll be fine...

“My body, my choice” only makes sense when someone else’s life isn’t at stake.

I’m gonna be taking a break from posting here for a while. There’s a lot going on atm and I have to catch up on a lot of artwork and that alone is overwhelming.

Fret not, I’ll still be active and check in now and then, so if anyone needs to DM a me y’all are welcome to do so, I’ll be checking my inbox☺️💖

Really sorry guys. Be back soon!

This week’s winner was James and Thomas!

(I’m so sorry this is coming out at the end of the week, I have a lot of pieces I’m trying to complete while on this break from work. I’m also recovering from minor surgery so finally having all the this time to draw reminded me just how much I have to do. Hopefully the next winner will be a little sooner than Saturday xx )

I feel like this dynamic is incredibly popular because of the amount of screen time the two get together, it’s a well liked pairing and the obvious general chemistry between their two personalities.

While I don’t ship the two personally, I really enjoy this dynamic. In this AU Thomas and James are more like very close friends, and have a strong brotherly relationship which can often become competitive.

🔴 James / Thomas HeadCanons 🔵

🔵 Their friendship really kicked off after Thomas raced to save James after the red engine’s accident caused by his wooden breaks. This incident was devastating to James both physically and emotionally. While the damage to his chassis was repaired, his human form was left with burn scars covering an arm and side of his torso. He was also left dealing with the emotional toll, and this is where Thomas stepped up to show James support.

🔴 Thomas and James hold mutual respect for each other, though more often than not they refuse to admit it. It’s shown clearly however, through actions towards one another.

🔵 Thomas loves to tease James and give him hell for the multiple mishaps he’s gotten into, while James enjoys poking fun at Thomas for the very same issues. Getting each other riled up is a game at this point.

🔴 Both Thomas and James see Percy as a younger sibling, and both feel equally protective over the smaller tank engine. The three of them have a close bond in general.

🔵 James will sometimes snag a piece of cake and bring it to Thomas after a long work day. In return, the blue tank engine often makes sure to bring strawberries back for James.

🔴 James has been the shoulder of comfort for Thomas more than once, especially when Thomas was overcoming his feelings for Lady. While their friendship is heavily based on sniping at each other and brotherly competition, James is incredibly loving when someone he cares about is hurt. Thomas has experienced his caring side when he needed a friend, which Is one of the reasons Thomas has a lot of respect for James.

🔵 The two of them often place bets on other engines in secret. James has lost multiple times to Thomas when it comes to bets on Gordon.

🔴 From an outsider’s perspective, Thomas and James wouldn’t seem like they have as close of a friendship as they do. Edward is still trying to wrap his head around why the two of them as so mean to each other one minute then snickering together the next.

🔵 They’re not a couple, as neither is the other one’s type. They view each other as brothers would and their rivalry is very much like that of two siblings. They annoy the hell out of each other but hold immense respect for the other deep down.

(I will be adding more HCs on as they come to me or change, so I’ll link these posts to the pinned post so y’all can find it)

It's my first (or almost first, idk) time to make animation. It's the first thing that I thought of, so yeah
