i think people get so used to their own creative work that they forget how amazing it is so i’m making this post as a reminder You are the only person capable of making art the exact way you make it. nobody else on earth can do that. there are always going to be those little habits and intricacies and details that simply cannot be replicated whether it’s in writing or painting or textiles and you make life all the better for it i love my friends’ art i love art from strangers im trying to love my own art I LOVE YOU!!! THE PERSON READING THIS!!!!!!! YOU ARE A PART OF THIS WORLD NEVER EVER STOP MAKING THINGS THAT CAN IMPACT IT
new animation preview :)
brain chemistry changed from no longer you and monster btw
i really wonder what happens to them after they leave the cabin. do they witness the end of the world? do they grow old and raise children? or do they just wander the forest forever?
So you know the scene where Jayce and Viktor discover that Hextech can "heal" the plants?
That one!
First, we have Jayce proving that once again his ideals and dreams have changed.
Viktor rattles on about all the amazing benefits this could have on people and lifeforms, but Jayce with THE DREAMIEST EYES EVER,
(Seriously)
JUST REPLIES "curing you"
It's the only thing he truly cares about by this point. He just wants to heal Viktor*
(*note that it only comes up after he has witnessed Viktor's decline due to his lung disease. Curing here refers to Viktor's deadly disease)
And that fact is cemented by the conversation Jayce, Ekko and Heimerdinger later have in Season 2
Ekko: "Did any of the plants survive?"
Jayce (with an incredibly pained look): "They weren't what we were trying to save."
Two things about that line:
1. Viktor did in fact care about the plants, or at least insofar as proving the remedy worked to help multiple people. It was Jayce who was zeroing on solely Viktor
2. "Save" bring used here just shatters my heart.
This line is so, so painfully about Viktor :(
And a little bonus, as a treat:
When the plants shrivel up, Jayce immediately puts himself between Viktor and the Hexcore to protect him
He stands fully in front of Viktor, ready if anything goes further awry.
We don't talk as much about act 3 of season 1 in terms of Jayvik here in this fandom (which makes sense because it is so fucking painful) but it's so amazing to see season 2 being a natural continuation, as Jayce slowly realises what he has come to truly care about :( (It's not Hextech and bringing magic to the people)
I'm just... to be loved by Jayce Talis, man :(
Even though it wasn't your intention, I just want to say thank you for finally inspiring me to work on my first comic series I've been dreaming about thanks to your silly fan comic. You really nail the style of the show both writing and visually! I'm so excited to see how CHDH turns out, can't wait for the next upload!
''I made something because of you" is the best compliment any artist can get, so THANK YOU! I was indirectly inspired by @kimtiny's Ghost AU, so I'm honoured to be another link in the chain.
Congrats on joining the hallowed ranks of the few, the proud, the Clone High fanartists (the only troops I respect)
VIKTOR NATION EMERGENCY MEETING:
A moment of peace cause honestly they deserved a bit more time to chill together after everything that happened
The Budgerigar Burglars
"A little birdie told me something..."
@professorcalculusstanaccount, thank you for doing the promotional/cover art of the story!! I would also like to thank them for bouncing ideas with me and subsequently proof/beta reading chapter 1 ― they’ve been very supportive and encouraging.
While I was unable to post on the actual dates I set up due to some personal reasons on my end, I will *hopefully* have it out sooner or later.
As a sort of teaser 2, here’s the first 101 words of The Budgerigar Burglars by @professorcalculusstanaccount and me, Jo :> !
Tintin was Bobbie’s most expensive drunken purchase.
He can’t remember much from the night he got the cockatiel, much less how he got his name― he just woke up with a pounding headache one morning, to a bird singing showtunes in his ear, in the dilapidated state of their (once shared) apartment.
Recalling past events, it was the night they’d finally settled for the divorce; his then wife was packing her belongings, planning to head off to who knows where and Bobbie was drinking enough spirits that could turn him into a spirit, if he kept at it for too long.
When the full thing does come out, I plan post it on to AO3 and post a link to the fic here on Tumblr.
For slightly more info on what the story and AU is about, click on to here to visit teaser 1 which is also the current pinned post of my blog!
would you still love me again?
