Iwachan athlete trainer ahhh ❤️❤️❤️
This post is less Good Omens- related and more personal, but there's been a lot of arguing over "representation" in the fandom the past few days. The strong feelings people express are awesome but ALSO I really want us in the community to appreciate and listen to one another.
People want to KILL queer people. There are still many, many places where it is not safe to have any identity other than cis het. Fighting that means sticking together, not tearing each OTHER apart. Allosexual, asexual, lesbian, gay, cis, trans, nonbinary, gender queer, GNC... we're all part of this community and we're stronger together.
In Good Omens, Neil Gaiman gave us a glimpse of what a world could be if people got to decide for themselves how to present and who to love without the hate and prejudice that inevitably comes along with that in the real world. I know people are questioning exactly what Crowley and Aziraphale are and how they identify, which is fine (honestly I don't know that we'll ever find out for sure. It may be something private between the two of them). But saying things like "it's homophobic" (for them to be ace), or "it's acephobic" (for them to be gay) sort of defeats the purpose of "it's a love story", doesn't it? At the end of the day, maybe it doesn't matter what EXACTLY they are. They're unapologetically QUEER and their story is for and about all of us.
It's okay to disagree. It's okay to ask questions. I mean, that's the moral of Good Omens, isn't it? We don't have to be the same; we SHOULDN'T all be the same... there's strength and beauty in our differences. But even if we don't all agree with one another, let's support each other.
I see them as gay male coded beings who have chosen that identity for themselves and would enjoy sexual pleasure as much as any other earthly pleasure. If YOU see them as agender or nonbinary sexless entities who are QPR or ace or aroace and would never have sex, I SUPPORT THE HELL OUT OF YOUR RIGHT TO DO SO. I'm in your corner and I will fight for you.
Love you all. Love that we love the ineffable love story of Good Omens, whatever form that takes, and let's lift each other up rather than tearing each other down.
Have I ever mentioned how much I love Supernatural? No? Well. There’s probably no show in the world I love more than Supernatural, so I drew the Winchester boys.
(Also forgive me, I’m ridiculously bad at drawing backgrounds)
I’m so sad I couldn’t finish this in time for Iwa-Chan’s birthday ;-;
But I’m pretty happy with how it turned out :)
My first ("official") fanart of Link.
I have been in love with the Zelda series for YEARS and I've always wanted to draw Link. I'd lost my motivation for drawing for quite a long time but Breath of the Wild was part of the reason why I picked it up again. So, as a tribute to that, have this drawing of Link as my first attempt at grey-scale-colouring! (I'm still figuring that one out so the execution is quite clumsy but I don't care)
So she's been an Erwin stan from the beginning, right, like he's the only one whose name she actually remembers. And we've just reached the choosing Armin or Erwin episode. Here's a little best of of her comments during the whole ordeal:
"Ah! I knew Erwin was going to show up!" "Of course they're gonna turn him into a titan." "It's so obvious he's a titan shifter already, that's why he told Levi to give it to Armin!!!!"
Boy oh boy will she be disappointed once she realizes he ain't gonna come back
Not me saving each and every Astarion screenshot for „drawing reference“™ despite A) not having any time to draw whatsoever and B) not even being in full denial about the fact that I just wanna look at my pretty pookie lol
[deep breath] now listen... listen—
Y'all I'm literally so mad, I knew they had *some* LGBT+ representation and because I'd seen a ton of Klance fanart on my dashboard while it was still hot I was SURE, like 100% CERTAIN they were endgame and I was fUCKING STOKED for it to happen
I do not think I have ever been more disappointed
This is so interesting! I can‘t wait to check out the books listed above.
My legitimate surname is Merlin and I‘ve been wondering where it comes from for ages (I‘m not from the UK or france) and the whole thing just got more mysterious to me once I realized the mythological wizard isn‘t even named that, but Myrddin instead.
Maybe I‘ll do a DNA test at some point? At least my surname got me really invested in the arthurian legend and celtic mythology in general, which is a nice niche interest to have.
anyway just a reminder for the myth lovers out there
king arthur was welsh. merlin was welsh. camelot was in wales. the lady and the lake she pops out of; welsh. excalibur; magic inanimate welsh object. etc.
on the way to see family, i drive past a lake that in which is welsh legend, is the last resting place of excalibur.
i’m just saying in my experience a lot of these legends had been so anglo-fied in the past and it’s like, all this cool shit is celtic welsh legend.
Why hello there! Allow me to introduce myself.I‘m a sleepdeprived multifandom artist, who obsesses over the most random things. My momentary fixation: Good OmensPronouns: she/her.Feel free to repost my art, as long as you credit me properly.Please enjoy your stay here, and if you‘re also into traditional art I‘d reccomend checking out my insta (@black_raven_art), since I‘ve uploaded some over there. .Disclaimer: Don‘t get confused by the different watermarks in my earlier drawings, I changed my username a while ago because I didn‘t like the old one anymore lmao
