Some paintings with nice memories affiliated to them on twitter. Since twitter’s fate is unknown rn, i just wanted to say I had a really fun journey there. I’m truly thanksful for all the love I got there from many strangers who took a few sec out of their days to stop and look at my silly art haha. It greatly helped me like my art and myself, since honestly, both are linked. I also met so many people and made so many friends. I tried to find as much people back here as I could. Anyway. May we meet again guys. Thanks for the ride on twitter. ❤

I am opening up pencil sketch commissions to help victims of the Palestinian genocide.
If you DM me a screenshot of a donation receipt of at least 20 USD (dated February 20th, 2024 or later), I will draw a pencil bust of a character of your choice. Larger donations are greatly encouraged and appreciated, but due to my own limitations I cannot do drawings more complex than the examples, even for bigger donations.
I will draw one character per donation. All drawings will be graphite pencil on paper.
I will draw: fanart, OCs, blood, body horror, stylistic representations of real people (i.e. not an accurate likeness)
I won't draw: animals/furries, overly complicated headpieces, accurate likenesses of real people
I will do sketches for donations to the following funds: Palestinian Children's Relief Fund, Hani Altat's fundraiser for Maha Rafieq Alsifie and her family, Crips for eSims for Gaza, Psychological Aid & Support for our People from Gaza, and Human Appeal Gaza Emergency Appeal.
- Britney for making fun of her when she had her breakdown
- Monica Lewinski for judging her when she was a 22year old temp sexually assaulted by the most powerful man in the world
- Ke$ha for ever thinking she was trashy when all she wanted to do was make party music
- Kristen Stewart for ever thinking she was dumb when she’s actually one of the coolest people ever
- Megan Fox for ever thinking she was just a slut when actually she was an actress being harassed by her employer.
- Hating all the women who made a career out of having a hot body. Being is shape is hard, beauty is a weapon and auto promotion is hard work.
- All the Mary-Sues, who exist because young girls everywhere want to be part of a story they love so much
- All the female characters I ever snobbed because they got in the way of my ship.
- Hating the color pink during my teenage years, when it’s actually a lovely color and what I resented was society’s pressure to perform femininity.
Chade: "Hello small child, how would you like to learn the art of murder!"
Fitz: "I will do literally anything for adult approval and acceptance, I'm in"
Can’t decide what my favorite Fitzloved era is.
The Assassins Quest era? Brought us “what has become of me, that I did not know you though I carry you in my arms!” Starling seething with jealousy over the Fool and deciding he must be a woman because homosexuality apparently doesn’t exist! Them sharing their little yurt! The birth of the Skill bond! Nighteyes declaring the Fool pack! Some of the best dialogue between them of the series (“I think you found your manhood before I did.” “How droll”) The Fool full on kissing Fitz on the mouth!
Early Fools Errand in the cabin where they get a chance to live peacefully for once in a way they won’t find again until their death? Beloved finally telling Fitz his real name? The middle of this trilogy is of course brutal but then you get the Fools Fate era! The highest highs (the Elderling tent! The Skill joining! “My dream was dead in my arms!” “The man I had been would not survive this loss!” THE BODY SWAP! the resurrection! “All that night, I cradled him in my arms as if he were my child or my lover!”) and lowest lows (PRILKOP!) This one has the greatest number of scenes that live rent free in my head.
The last trilogy? It had some excessive grimdark (was Fitz accidentally nearly killing him as their reunion really necessary?) but also so much more. We got the complete and total breakdown of Fitz caring about people assuming they’re a couple! “‘Would you kill for me?’ I didn’t even have to think about it!” Paragon being jealous of Fitz! Pausing the revenge tour for a family cuddle! Whatever tf happened in Kelsingra! The promises to raise their daughter (!) together! “and we will live happily ever after?” “He loved you more than he ever loved any of the rest of us!” GOING INTO THE WOLF TOGETHER TO SPEND ETERNITY IN THE SKILL STREAM.
