@Deaa: idk if i'll learn to paint
cause getting myself to actually..do something is like climbing a mountain.
but would love to.

I mostly meant paint digitally though.
I would love to use jelly gouache but i don't have the supplies for that.

    @moodybats: hahah that's how i feel! def climbing a mountain
    and like maybe i'll draw and lightly paint something once a month or every two months
    but i get distracted easily and don't stay motivated for too long

    ahhhh digital painting! i see o:
    i'll have to research some examples ^^~

@Deaa: im surprised how much i've done art consistently.
tho im now getting more behind.
and of course my dumb brain is like "so next month is...HUEVEMBER."

Sara tepes on instagram is one of my biggest inspirations.
along with so many others.
but since i want to draw girls that account is a good one that i am super inspired by.

    @moodybats: getting behind happens! you can always combine 2 prompts!
    oooooh is Huevember doing color palettes?!?! cause i love those

    i don't follow them, but they have a gorgeous way with hair and realism
    one of my favorites is gdbee, i love the way they do hair and work with colors
    AND ALL THE GORGEOUS BLACK PEOPLE

@Deaa: yeah true though knowing me i don't mind how late i am cause
it's meant to be fun. even though im behind i am not stressed about it.
i've been getting really relaxed with it lol.

Yup! i've never done Huevember but man it looks so fun.
and i want to try and practice to paint and be consistent with it lol.

I like Gdbee but i think Sara really got me sold on the whole digital painting idea lol.
I like many other artists but i really love her darker works.

@Deaa:
I read it all on Archive of Our Own (Ao3) because it had better quality in works compared to fanfic.net
I read nearly all the Muriel ones...I had no control

I am so glad I’m not the only one addicted to fan fiction. Fanfic.net really has lost its appeal on me though. Archive all our own and wattpad are my go to now, it’s just easier to read because you can change the font size ect. Or download a mobi file and open it in Apple Books. I have terrible eyes so I like that feature and a smoother reading experience.

    @moodybats: yes! exactly how it should be
    take your time, enjoy yourself ^^~
    whenever I do writing challenges, I just take my time
    and if I know I won't do it that day, I just write down the prompt and return at an unforeseen future date lol

    if not this year, definitely try next year!
    and yes, I like the blending and layering on one of their recent portrait wips


    @ouja akuma: yes, I think so too! ao3 is best
    I have a bunch on my save for later list, I'm trying to focus my reading efforts on physical books right now
    (unless I'm in bed already, then I read fanfics and play Choices lol)


    @peptobismol: hello there and welcome!
    ao3 is definitely the best, I love their advanced search layout
    what fandoms are you reading for right now?

@Deaa: I mostly just roughly sketch out the prompts
and finish them after i upload one prompt.
So even if it's not the same day i'll be happy to get it done at least.

I mostly love a lot of their old works.
not too many of their recent works.
But that is mostly since i love the dark stuff lmao.

tho i did try to paint today which was fun and interesting.
so now im amped to paint.
so i have 3 references to experiment with.

    @moodybats: how far ahead to you sketch out prompts? o:

    i'll have to go back and scroll WAY down their page to see what you're talking about lol
    but that's good on the new references to work with~

    @moodybats: oh wow! i thought you were going as you went originally
    that's probably easier to work with

    if it's too much, you can always just decide to do half of the month!

My cat is black with amber colored eyes. He is rude but I love it...haha he will literally tear your butt though and he owns two families now.

My cat is also a skilled mouser, if you don’t want mice he does the trick. I’m about to go call him in now so we can cuddle and sleep.

@Deaa:
I’ve been reading in ffvii fandoms right now because I played the remake and then replayed the original. My favorite final fantasy game out of all of them, and to be honest my favorite rpg.

I’ve been reading some horror fanfics that center around Sephiroth. He is so pretty how is he so evil lol...well scratch that it makes sense that he is.

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

@Deaa: i was caught up and then got uncaught up as stress caught up.
Not pinktober stress but family stress
as my grandfather is in the hospital with bad blood infection and mom just got on new meds
for her dementia.

I'll just see what i can do. But i can add jelly fish to it!

@Deaa: I don't really read physical books anymore unless they're history books or texts lol. I also read from my phone while in bed to help me fall asleep which is weird for most. /shrug
I should check to see if there's more Muriel fics....I need more.

@Peptobismol: I loved fanfic.net but yeah, it's just not keeping up with the times anymore. Ao3 is much easier to read now because of their post matting and dark mode!
I love any site that has dark mode lol.
Also hi there!

    @peptobismol:
    not too knowledgable about final fantasy as I never played it o:
    never owned a game console myself until this august and it's just the switch so I can play animal crossing and just dance
    buutttttt that game looks super involved and fun! idk if I'd be able to follow the story line after so long lol

    @moodybats:
    yea that's usually how it goes
    OMG how's your grandfather? how's your mom?
    (do you mind if I ask?)
    my grandma fell in the last few weeks and needed hip surgery, my family's all worried :/

    @ouja akuma:
    ooh history books? are you a history buff? have you tried historical fiction?
    you know, I'm actually writing a Muriel fanfic, but it's a modern au with an OC so it's not too popular
    and I don't blame people, when I read for arcana, I like y/n and non-gendered apprentice stories

@Deaa: he's back home now but he's had a rough go.
My grandma is sure that going to the hospital very often is the new normal
since he had so many surgeries this past year.

My mom is alright, i think her new meds are working for her dementia
but sometimes she breaks down from missing us or feeling like
she is missing out on our lives, etc.

So it's been rather stressful.

    glad your grandfather's back at home and hoping your mom's meds are working! *fingers crossed 🤞🏽
    it sounds stressful! hoping art is a de-stresser for you right now, and not adding to the pile

@Deaa: And he's back in cause blood levels with his kidneys are seriously bad.
But my mom's meds seem to be working as she was in very good spirits today.

Yeah, art definitely is a destresser for me.
tho I feel it would be more of a destresser if i could make time to study painting and anatomy better lol.
