Just wanted to say that I discovered your art via a reblog, and it's lovely. I'm particularly taken with your Jeeves & Wooster pieces, as those two have a huge soft spot in my heart, but even your art of fandoms I don't care or know anything about are wonderful.

Thank you so much for saying so, that’s very kind of you! I go through periods of not feeling great about my art -- I tend to only draw when I really fall in love with characters, which means I’m kinda sporadic and don’t improve as much and as quickly as other artists. But I always hope that that love of the subject comes through. And I will hopefully be doing more of J&W soon! I adore them.

had a dream last night that my alarm was connected to twitter and everytime i hit snooze it publicly tweeted it with a disparaging little message along the lines of “filthy horrible boy has slapped the screen again, and slumbers on” so that your followers could shame you and i was deeply, DEEPLY humiliated but that did not stop me from hitting snooze upwards of 14 times

hey op! i couldnt sleep until i built this! you motherfucker!

just gotta “borrow” my sister’s alarm clock

get that twitter api, write the bot in some python bc god is dead n slap together some fuckin UI with legos

your idiot self wants to sleep in???? hit that snooze button a couple times???? (maybe 4 times in a row)?? disgusting.

twitter knows! bc it posts how many times youve hit it. fuck you

the next step is NOT profit. noone profits. everybody loses. go home.

OH MY GOD?????????

I know I make fun of Pliny the Elder a lot, but I genuinely can’t stop thinking about this approach to taxonomy:

[There is a fish called the tursio, which bears a strong resemblance to the dolphin; it differs from it, however, in a certain air of sadness, and is wanting in its peculiar vivacity.]

Like, imagine someone describing an animal to you, but the only information they’ll provide is that it’s sort of like another animal, but much much sadder.

okay so apparently the word “Tursio” is what people in Pliny’s time called the porpoise. for reference, here is a dolphin:

A Dolphin with it's head above the water, mouth open to look like a smile.

and here is a porpoise:

anyways long story short Pliny was entirely correct stop bullying him

“you ruined a perfectly good dolphin is what you did. look at it, it’s got depression” - Pliny, apparently

#are you kidding that's the most perfect description of a porpoise that ever was

Listen, is The Untamed an incredibly moving story of soulmates overcoming all odds including death?  Yes.  But never forget that Lan Wangji fell in love like a cat being forced into a bath, hissing with futile repressed rage the entire time.  And that’s beautiful.

More Jeeves and Wooster, from The Code of the Woosters.

A philosophical Bertram requires careful managing.

#thoughts and prayers for Reginald Jeeves#doing his best not to take these kinds of hurtful remarks personally#I love how he solves this dark teatime of the soul by suggesting Bertie go full white tie#because how can you feel depressed when you've got your glam on#sound strategy of course because Bertie is EXACTLY that kind of girl#Jeeves and Wooster#Jooster#Reginald Jeeves#Bertie Wooster#my art

One of the ideas I have on the backburner is Bertie as a traumatized WW1 veteran and I think it might end up sounding like this.

#J&W was like#the biggest literary denial of wwi#or indeed of the existence of any unpleasantness in jolly old E. since the turn of the century#so naturally#perversely#I thirst for all the angst that never was#it's easy to picture Jeeves assiduously creating a cozy world where Bertie can ankle along#tangling with the occasional aunt or cow creamer#but able to exist more or less sanely#the evening b&s laced with veronal to try to stave off the nightly screaming#'green ice' did this amazingly#give me the wooster angst give it to me#jeeves and wooster#reginald jeeves#bertie wooster
