My full piece for @luminaryzine :D

I got to draw little baby Kaito discovering his love of the stars <3

Simon Petrocov has two hearts, and the very existence of this fact implies that Golb possesses an infinite glitch, specifically when it comes to organs. Let me explain my horrific thought process.

During a spell, Ice King, trying to "steal Princess Bubblegum's heart," accidentally brought his own heart to life. If you watched the early seasons of Adventure Time, you probably remember him. Ricardio, the smooth talking heart.

But the one thing I didn't realize was that Ricardio actually never fused back with Simon, meaning that up until Come Along With Me, Ice King literally didn't have a heart. But once he was broken down by Golb, presumably, he was reset back to a time where he did have a heart. Because yknow, humans need those.

So basically, my thoughts are that it'd be insanely easy to harvest organs in Ooo if you ever came across Golb, and yknow, could survive that encounter without being zapped into puzzle pieces.

Maybe it only worked for Simon because Betty wished to have the power to be able to keep him safe at any cost, and maybe that means Simon literally doesn't have a heart anymore, and my whole theory is debunkable... But if that IS how it works: infinite organ farming.

Simon: A Relic of Time

I'm pretty sure I'm just becoming an AT/FC account, and y'know what? I'm just gonna roll with it. I was going to do a more thematic analysis today, but since it's my birthday and I only have so much time, I'm just doing a short one. I think it's interesting how Simon was once an archeologist/antiquities collector; and his character arc began in FC with him on display like the very same artifacts that he once collected. As an anthropology major, the whole idea of taking artifacts of long-gone civilizations to study is seen as normal, but it's also a hot button issue in the field. What right does one human have for the sake of science, yknow? Specifically, though, I find it interesting because it seems that the scene was meant to be taken less literally? Maybe I'm over thinking it, but I think the very idea of being put on display for the whole world to see, like a caged-up animal in a zoo, goes to show just how disconnected Simon felt with Ooo at the start of the series. He didn't feel like he belonged in anything other than a museum. Perhaps he tells himself that it's purely for the sake of authenticity and preserving the history of humanity as much as possible; but really, it's just another way that his past has left him chained and trapped in despair. The crown was never Simon's biggest threat, he was.

After posting my other work skins, rotrude requested one for creating newspaper articles/clippings, and after banging my head against a wall repeatedly a lot of trial and error, I came up with this. Now, this is more intensive than the other skins, but I promise to guide you through the whole thing and will try to help if you have any questions.
