enough fighting;
I play the body electric.
Several years ago, I first ran into @peridots-pixiwolf on tumblr, back when Hollow Knight had all but consumed my life.
Last year, despite the fact we don't really talk much, Peri remembered and made me a sweet gift art to commemorate the event.
I may be an eldritch horror, but my heart's as hard as applesauce- happy pal-iversary, friend. I hope it keeps up a while longer!
[Start ID. A brown-toned comic of P3RI, the artist's botsona. They lament on how long it's been since they've played Dishonored, start playing it again, and then lie to itself that it'll keep this playthrough casual. The bottom quarter of the image lists the self-imposed challenges they rack up. End ID]
back at it again folks
[Start ID. A simple comic in orange and green of the artist's botsona, P3RI, wondering about why there's suddenly a lot more Rain World art than it's ever seen on Tumblr. They chalk it up to the frequency bias, but text pointing to it describes the real explanation as the fact that they happened to start playing right after a major DLC, Downpour, came out. End ID]
this has happened twice
[Start ID. A half-body doodle of a screen-faced humanoid robot, my sona, smiling as it looks at its phone. Both them and the phone emit the symbols of Tumblr's likes and reblogs. The text pointing to it reads "accidentally started a likespamming match with a cool blog". End ID]
symbiotic relationship :]
ok maybe I did clean it up a little
[Start ID. Two versions of a humanoid robot with a head resembling an old tv and insect-like antennae, standing on a peach-colored background. They are more or less facing forward, though its upper body is twisted slightly to the side, so they’re looking somewhere above their raised arm. The bot is painted pale green on its lower body and arms, while its head and chest are a dull red. It features a number of markings, including icons for its favorite games, various hearts, and two across its chest that resemble stylized mastectomy scars. Both versions of the robot are the same, though one is wearing a red bandanna and a blue button-up shirt with fronds and flowers. End ID]
[Start ID. A few uncolored sketches of a humanoid robot, with a head resembling an old tv and insect-like antennae, against a blank background. Their body is drawn in red, clothing in blue, and markings in green. They are more or less facing forward, though its upper body is twisted slightly to the side, so they’re looking somewhere above their raised arm. It features a number of markings, including icons for its favorite games, various hearts, and two across its chest that resemble stylized mastectomy scars. The robot is wearing a bandanna and a button-up shirt, but their body is visible underneath the lineart. End ID]
"the act of comparing autistic people to robots or depicting them as cold, emotionless, or subhuman is overused and problematic, robots/aliens shouldn't be the only characters we can relate to" and "ok but bots are cool and i wanna be one so bad" are two statements that can and should coexist
