Star death

This drawing is based on the butterfly nebula :)

If anyone cares for my symbolism:

A nebula is often formed by the gas and dust ejected by a dying star after it burns out all its fuel. Stars die once the energy from fusion isn’t enough to sustain its mass, causing a collapse that produces a supernova, throwing heavy elements into space. Throughout a star’s life, they’re constantly fighting their own collapse, fusing hydrogen into helium to resist the pressure of their own gravitational pull. They die when they can no longer do this.

In the au I’m obsessed with that only exists in my head (more here), both of them sacrificed their teenage experiences to get into the school they did, and kind of know nothing else; in that way they’re fighting their own collapse and burnout. They're each other's first run-ins with a relationship like this and that experience makes them feel unable to sustain a disconnected tunnel vision outlook on life, if that makes sense. Hence star death.

And nebulae are how new stars form :)

My secret santa gift for @pinkflipphonez ! Merry christmas, god jul!

here's the actual tshirt design lol!

for my non-american folks, memorial airbrush shirts are often used as a sort of modern mourning attire.

they are worn for funerals or special familial events to commemorate a lost loved one and that is what al was parodying when he gave him the shirt, the lil shit

happy b-day gilbert! we still miss you everyday, fly high homie 🕊️

so uh...

would y'all read an unnecessarily long one-shot about alfred f. jones retelling his fall off the grand canyon to ivan braginsky that leads to a talk about immortality existentialism?

example:

sent to the g8 groupchat at 5 AM sharp after they all got shtfaced the night before

ivan ivanovich braginsky is absolutely the type to send cheesy and dated blingee gifs to the g8 groupchat altruistically in 2024 like your local russian dedushka on whatsapp

I truly wonder if white fans are even capable of understanding how hard it is just being in a fandom space when you're not white. How alienated you feel every other day. How often you're told "it's not that big a deal" or "it's just a fantasy game get over it" or "it doesn't matter" or "go save the rainforest instead of crying over a game" or etc. etc. etc. to the point where you yourself start to question if there's something wrong with you... that it's your fault for being hurt all the time. Because it's never just about one racist mod, or one piece of whitewashed art, or one offensive post... it's all of it. Together. All the time. It's so fucking exhausting and it's why POC quit fandom spaces a lot.

so beautiful, my indian girl you’re one of a kind, you’ll always be mine you’re so fine [aaaamelia] red rock woman, you make my rockin’ world go ‘round

Sorry for my inactivity! I’ve been very busy these past few weeks but since winter break started for me recently I’ll try to upload a bit more often!

Here’s some recent things I’ve done!

1) IxChel (Chichén Itzá) protecting her man Achcauhtli (Aztec) based on that one Kevin Hart meme

2) Art trade with @makwandis , they wanted their Gilbert interacting with Lupe! He’s being scolded for not wearing sunscreen 😅

3) Silly little doodle of Al bothering Lupe inspired by a conversation I had with @pinkflipphonez !

2p rusame human au in the 1980s where dmitri is a trucker from montana who just migrated from russia and allen is an Indian cowboy from gallup who bucks at state rodeos. they meet when dmitri’s truck shuts down outside the convenience store in the reservation and allen lets him borrow his house phone (cause the public phone was knocked down months ago). it’s there that they get acquainted and allen notices dmitri has a hard time with english.

they get to talking and knowing more of each other and then allen lets him crash on his couch. allen gets an uncle to help him fix the issue with the truck the next morning and dmitri is all set to leave- but not before they exchange info. after becoming friends, allen teaches dmitri english and helps him with his citizenship test, and in exchange, dmitri teaches him how to stay on a horse better (because he worked at a horse riding school in khabarovsk).
