ROUND 4 BATTLE 1
ROUND 4 BATTLE 1

PROPAGANDA

Miles - Emotionally repressed lawyer is saved from his darkest moments by his *ahem* “childhood friend” that changed the course of his life and the entire legal system. He is as close to canonically asexual as characters not produced by queer writers get, and yet he is also very gay. Everyone in the Fandom believes he has it down bad for the protagonist and he wears a wine red (looks pink af) suit

Gabriel - Gay angel, questioning God, horny, thinking about sworn enemy 24/7. Honestly, what more could anyone ever want?

[Start ID. Two Side-by-side Drawings In The Same Palette. The Left Image Shows Drya Sitting With Her
[Start ID. Two Side-by-side Drawings In The Same Palette. The Left Image Shows Drya Sitting With Her

[Start ID. Two side-by-side drawings in the same palette. The left image shows Drya sitting with her legs bent in front of her, facing to the left and seemingly on a flat surface, one hand at her spear and the other on the floor. She's smiling and looking back at Tel. The right image depicts Tel, cross-legged on the floor and facing right, holding a whetstone and shard. Her face is partially obscured, but she looks back at Drya. Her bag and a spare metal shard lay behind her. Both images share a pink tone, and matching background in the colors of the lesbian flag. End ID.]

@enbeemerang TEAM DRYA PROPAGANDA!!

Bug Fables OC Tournament Round 2

Bug Fables OC Tournament Round 2

Drya (she/her) and Tel (she/they) (or Team Drya) from @enbeemerang

Drya is a (very lovable) dumb rosy maple moth, who came from far outside of Bugaria. Right now, she resides outside of Defiant Root with her girlfriend, Tel! Drya's very outspoken, and is ready to defend her friends with whatever it takes. She's canonically trans, and a lesbian! She very much enjoys going to Crisbee's for a snack, and doing jobs with her girlfriend. Drya uses a spear (a toothpick with a shard of metal tied onto it) as her weapon, and won't stand down. Drya is always down to make a friend, and with her outspoken nature, knows many bugs across Bugaria. She's also a bit of a herbo.

Tel is a much more rational sap beetle. Due to her quietness and more closed off personality, she may come off as cold and not friendly to new bugs she meets. But, she holds lots of care for those she holds close like her friends and loved ones. Growing up in Defiant Root, she loves the research side of exploring, knowing that Drya has her back. Tel is also trans, and a lesbian. Tel's weapon of choice are metal shards. She carries up to 5 whenever she goes out exploring, which she throws at her enemies. She enjoys documentation, and frequents the Ant Kingdom Library whenever she can. Having grown up in Bugaria, she knows practically everybody in Defiant Root, and others across the Ant Kingdom.

Tel and Drya met about two years pre canon in the game. Drya left her home to find somewhere more accepting, and after losing her sibling in the journey, found herself in the Lost Sands. Dehydrated and lost, she couldn't continue. That night, Tel found her, and helped her regain her strength. The year on, Drya had stayed in Defiant Root with Tel, where the two grew closer, until they began dating. After Drya had learned of the explorer's guild, she was eager to be able to continue exploring and going on journeys, with a land that accepted her.

Tel and Drya are an inseparable duo. When they explore, Drya takes up the front, ready to defend her girlfriend at any given moment. Tel goes slower, stopping to document things, or to take samples and place them in the little pouch she carries. They love each other very much! They fight as a single unit, and are best friends.

They also both wear Favorite One medals, as they are each others favorites :)

Argentum (he/him) from @alagadda

Argentum is a beautiful silver wasp (Priochilus gloriosum) and a mercenary, assassin, and bounty hunter. He appeals to those who would seek his illicit services because he does his job without asking questions. He's very impersonal during work but much more open and emotional in everyday life. He's a real prick, honestly.

He takes the mandibles off his victims as proof of a job well done, but he often makes necklaces out of them and keeps them as trophies because there's something deeply wrong with him. He also loots all his victims corpses so his husband can sell off their belongings.

He's in a surprisingly healthy and loving marriage with Aurum, a golden reined digger wasp (Sphex habenus) ex-explorer, who became disillusioned with life after almost dying in search of the Everlasting Sapling. They both reside in Defiant Root where Aurum runs a shop to sell off the aforementioned looted goods, but he wants both of them to eventually move to the Golden Settlement. Aurum loves his husband deeply even if he's completely out of his mind and thinks wearing body parts as trophies is cool. He wants Argentum to do literally anything else as a job, but still loves and supports him.

He attacks with his prized blade, poisoned with his own venom and made by Aurum from the mandible of his first victim.

[Start ID. Two Drawings Of Hollow Knight OCs In The City Of Tears. The First Depicts Solper And Caramel,
[Start ID. Two Drawings Of Hollow Knight OCs In The City Of Tears. The First Depicts Solper And Caramel,

[Start ID. Two drawings of Hollow Knight OCs in the City of Tears. The first depicts Solper and Caramel, an owlfly and carpenter bee respectively, just before they duel in midair, from a vantage point behind Caramel's shoulder. They're a fair distance from the ground, which is composed of a scattering of large cobblestone islands, partially submerged by a dark sea. They both seem rather enthused, fighting for fun—Caramel has her mantis claw held out to the side and other fist raised, while Solper's sabre is poised beside his head, his other limbs akimbo. The entire drawing and particularly the background are indigo-toned, drenched and shining under perpetual rain.

The second shows Molini, Hawksbeard and Dandy, a millipede, grasshopper and a moth. Molini contentedly sits as the other two use her as a bench, circled around a fire as they've just finished boiling tea, the kettle is propped up on Dandy's nail and settled between two poles taken from Solper and Caramel's battleground. The background is dark enough to appear fully blank, though a handful of lumaflies and the light of a hidden central fire shine upon the three bugs. Hawksbeard is chatting, the others listen, all three holding cups from which pale steam rises in clouds. While the firelight is particularly bright, the tone of the drawing is warm, in both color and feeling. End ID]

March 30 was the first time I'd interacted with @hollypies (feat. their Dandy), and April 5th my earliest memory of @original-character-chaos (feat. his Solper). So I offer a two-weeks-late first-anniversary drawing to my mutuals :]

peridots-reblogs hmm. this is only my second srb i think ever (last one was the izzy drawing which shared the privilege of a month-anniversary reblog) ((even if this one's a day late)) but i just enjoy this one! i had to look at it again cause i'm updating art fight refs and i can appreciate the time put into these (cough. three weeks). i describe all of my art as experimental but these two especially so and i suppose i'm still proud of the water-shine and the tint of the background and the rain in the first one and the warmth and the vivid lighting and the steam in the second. plus it's gift art which always takes the longest but is the most. fulfilling maybe? i adore making people happy and i think that's finally come back around to become the reason i post!!! and i'm feeling good today. so hi ghost hi nattou hi nox and holly and qwerty hi to everyone who i've drawn something for hi to anyone who never got a reply hi to the mutuals i never talk to and the mutuals i do hi to the people who've been following me forever hi to everyone who sees me in their notes from time to time and hi to everyone who i see in my notes from time to time. i'm making this post one of my testaments to a love of my friends because hey it's my blog and i should get to be sentimental like that! and looping it back around again that's one of the reasons i'm so excited for art fight in the first place. it's a chance to give back to all of my fandom neighbors who're always presenting such rad art and give back to the people who always show up for me now: is this coherent rambling in the tags? no!! and if it is that's not one of my posts! so i present this to you all and goodnight :]

bugs peridots-reblogs ohhh i am going to bite someone for all my favorites being the least-liked...no respect for bugs on the bug poll website???? wasps were my immediate choice obviously. discord name was wasp apologist supreme for a while. they've always fascinated me even before i liked bugs and i absolutely adore them.... nevermind the fact that most species are parasitic and want nothing to do with humans i love wasps ok??? but on the logical side they prey on agricultural pests and pollinate a few species that don't have any other pollinator they're a Very Important part of our world and i'll defend them forever (even if i'm instinctively still terrified of the social ones lol) anyway i'll admit spiders earned their place at the top they literally do not hurt humans like Ever and (like the wasps of course) are actively beneficial to us!!!! roaches i find very cute but i'm biased and anyway there are around 3500 known species of them and only 1% of those live in human homes. mosquitos i'm not the biggest fan of but i'll still argue vehemently that they're an important part of their ecosystems. without question the worst thing about loving bugs is the fact that every single time i try to look up stuff about em all the top results are exterminator websites. or every time there's an insect or myriapod displayed amongst other interesting animals all the comments show disgust and malevolence rather than anything remotely close to reverence. idk it's just. really hard having something that brings me such great joy also being something that everyone actively wants dead. calls for the total extermination for. thinks should die out. squished under their shoe or a frying pan without a second thought it truly SUCKS and i get a little emotional but hey i've managed to make my family change their minds on bugs so that's a start for sure. don't let an aspiring entomologist around one of these polls is the moral of the story

transgender autistic swag bracket!!

inspired by this tweet:

Transgender Autistic Swag Bracket!!

rules/info:

they don’t have to be canonically trans nor canonically autistic. they just have to have the vibes.

you can submit as many characters as you would like but only one submission per person per character

the bracket will be seeded so that the character with the most submissions goes up against the least and so forth. this is to keep it from being the most epic showdown ever in the first round and then super anticlimactic in the finals

no real people. you’re welcome to submit them and give your reasoning to make me laugh but they won’t end up in the bracket.

no harry potter characters or mcyt. this is just a personal boundary as the person making the bracket.

don’t be a dick. this is all for fun and games. i will block liberally if i need to.

give me your reasoning!! it doesn’t affect the likelihood of them getting win, it’s just fun

propaganda allowed and encouraged!! you can send an ask with it, submit it, or tag me in it! it’ll be under #trans autistic swag propaganda

no characters are automatically included but there are many characters i’m hoping will make it in and i’m excited to see who y’all submit!!

this isn’t just for binary characters, nonbinary characters are encouraged. also let’s try and get some good transfem rep/headcanons in here. we can do it.

i might add more rules. this is my first time running a bracket so be patient with me.

google form for submission will be posted tomorrow!!

inspired by under the cut

thank you for the inspiration @goldenretrieverguybracket @eldest-sibling-tournament @nicejewishcharactershowdown @firefighterbracket @cringefaillosersummit @meangirlbracket @noncanongayestbitchestournament and many more, im too lazy to tag them all.

special shoutout to @tboyswag @chemicaljacketslut for their inspiring brackets from before the poll feature

id: a digital mostly greyscale drawing of an original character-izzy, a humanoid robot. he’s shown to a little below his hips, tapping his cheek with his eyes closed, his other hand is placed in his lap and his tail is wagging. next to its head there’s a green heart. the background is white and in the top right corner of the image, there’s the  “you literally cannot make out with a robot, the fuck. keep sucking his flat face” meme, it’s partially obscured by izzy and its opacity is lowered. end id

one fun thing about being a teacher in march 2023 is that chess is a literal epidemic among teens. we are starting to have meetings about how we can STOP teenagers from playing too much chess which is like if we were trying to figure out how to stop them from reading for fun. When i was in high school five years ago chess was nerd shit only but now it is transcending every social and language barrier and is absolutely rampant. kids aren’t on their phone texting in class anymore it’s ONLY chess.com. kids are playing chess on their phones while playing chess in real life. this is still better than tiktok because at least the kids are developing an attention span from this
