HOOO MY GOD, GOD DID NOT HELP ME, But it was completed the 25th and it has ink ssooooo xD
i even made sure to take pics where the glitter kinda shows~
Louis as Belle in the blue dress bc that’s classic Belle, imo. Lestat as Rapunzel bc that hair tho. And lastly, my favorite, Armand as Ariel with a blender to add to his collection. He will soon go to the evil witch Marius to ask for humanity so that he may terrorize the human twink: Daniel. It probs should’ve been vice versa, but Armand + Blenders = <333.
Oh gosh, sorry for the frustration, and I’m not really helping in the sense that my commitment to proper tagging kind of crapped out in March of this year and I’ve only recently got back in the habit 😛
I scrolled through my entire archive and couldn’t quite find a match to the criteria. From what you’re describing, it sounds like art by @sacetcendre, which I reblog sometimes bc it’s gorgeous! But I don’t think they draw VC fanart specifically. Check out their archive.
If it’s not them, give me more info… Any other characters in the fanart? Flowers? Blood? Is it drawn or a photomanip of a real person? Cosplay maybe?
Some of this text might be wonky bc I’m on mobile, sorries!
So it REALLY annoys me to see such fine craftsmanship go uncredited. This is a blade done by Antonio Montejano and you can find his entire gallery on his website here
I would hope that if people ever reblog my works that they either add the credit in or never remove the credit. This is an extremely skilled man. apparently he “perforated” the blade (meaning he saw pierced those designs) and you get only one chance to do that sort of thing or you have to start all over again (or alternatively, solder a new piece in but I highly doubt that’s an actual option even with a decorative blade piece.)
There are a couple of things about current shipping culture that confuse me.
1. The focus on whether or not a pairing will become canon as a reason people should ship something or not. Do you not understand what the “transformative” part of “transformative works” means?”
2. This idea that saying “I ship that” means “I think that, as presented in canon,this is a perfect, healthy relationship that everyone should model their relationship after.”
Sometimes shipping something does mean that. Sometimes shipping something means “Person A is a trash bag who doesn’t deserve person B but I would love to explore how Person A might grow to deserve Person B.” Sometimes it means “I want these characters to live together forever in a conflict free domestic AU.” Sometimes it means “I want Person A to forever pine after Person B. Nothing is beautiful and everything hurts.” And sometimes it just means you like their faces and want to see Person A and Person B bone in various configurations and universes.
Listen to your parents, kids.
This really should be one of a handful of Public Service Announcements randomly and chronically inserted into one’s dash.
Hell man sometimes it means “these two are TERRIBLE and I want to watch them burn like a catastrophic forest fire as a proxy for all the shit I don’t actually want in real life (like to light my own apartment on fire and scream) and then laugh at the destruction at the end.”
Writing is a process that often undergoes heavy edits… that includes responding to feedback.
I had no idea this post would resonate with so many people. I let my vitriol surrounding several comments I received on a recent update get to me and it spilled out into .gif form and it’s now morphed into the most widely shared thing I’ve ever posted. So many comments and tags have said things along the lines of, “This was why I quit writing” or “This is why I hate writing fanfic.” And that’s soul crushing to hear, but I can relate.
But while there are some crappy and entitled readers, there are also many brilliant ones and I’m so grateful for them. The huge response to this post made me go back and skim through the comments on my old stories, and comments like the one below are about half the reason some of those stories got finished, even if it was months later.
Comments like these are so rare, but when they do come up, they leave me staring at my computer screen, drumming my fingers on the keyboard, struggling to convey my feelings about how their words have touched my heart. These are the comments that take the longest amount of time to respond to and the ones that cause me to wear out my backspace key the fastest.
It’s easy to complain, but it’s literally just as easy to praise, so I just wanted to take a moment to recognize all those dear and dedicated readers who have propped me up when I wanted to quit. Readers like you are why I keep writing, and why I even feel honored to do it on rare occasion.
And fellow writers, keep your heads up if you can. 🙂
