REF DUMP!!!!
With Shapes of May going on but me being unable to participate, I wanted to share some ref sheets!! This isn't everything I have, but there's some things I'd like to keep from the immediate public eye until I get the comic started... :) So these are all the main character refs I have ready at this point! Trysia (P2/triangle) and Emerald (P3/pentagon) are in redesign hell rn so all we have is Cyan and Oracle. Also a couple extras that I include because they're some of my favorite characters and designs in the AU lol (vive my belovedd)
Anyways if you see this for shapes of may (or any other time tbh) GO HAM!!

Rage, Grief & Other Quiet Explosions
(Emotional meltdowns that don’t look like meltdowns, but absolutely are)
 The “Smiling Too Much” Grief Your character’s entire world is on fire, and they’re asking if anyone wants more wine. That’s not denial, it’s an effort to hold the damn pieces together. Smile like a glue gun. Watch them crack.
The “Not Crying At the Funeral” Breakdown They don't shed a tear. They organize everything. Perfect speech. Perfect outfit. But a week later, they scream into the laundry basket over a missing sock. That’s the moment. That’s the eulogy.
 The “Silent Dinner Table” Fight No yelling. No slamming doors. Just chewing. Clinking silverware. The kind of silence that tastes like metal. Let the reader feel the air shrink.
 The “Polite but Dead Inside” Apology They say “Sorry” because it’s expected, not because they’re ready. Their voice doesn’t crack. Their eyes don’t meet yours. This isn’t healing. This is a peace treaty with no peace.
The “I Don’t Want to Talk About It” Detour The one where they ask about your day mid-sob. Redirect. Deflect. “Let’s not talk about me.” That’s rage choked by shame. Write it like it’s shoving itself into a smaller box.
 The “Obsessively Productive” Meltdown New projects. New hobbies. Suddenly they’re running marathons, baking sourdough, fixing the garage door. Because if they sit still for one second, they’ll break. Keep the camera on them when they finally sit.
The “Unsent Letters” Grief They write it all down. Every damn emotion. Then burn it. Or delete it. Or hide it in a shoebox under their bed. It’s not for closure. It’s to let the ghosts know they were seen.
The “I’m Fine” That Echoes Delivered too fast. Too sharp. You could bounce a quarter off it. “I’m fine” isn’t fine. It’s the dam cracking. Listen to the echo. Let another character hear the hollowness.
The “Hyper-Logical Rant” Rage They argue with spreadsheets. With perfect bullet points. Cold rage—like ice, not fire. “I’m not mad, I’m just saying…” But that’s a lie. They’re volcanic under that clipboard.
 The “Laughing in the Middle of the Breakdown” Moment That bitter, hysterical laugh. The kind that sounds more like sobbing with teeth. Let it come at the worst time. Let it shock even them. That’s emotion refusing to stay boxed in.

A pair of hunting Excalibosaurus costini.
Doing their thing in a shallow coastal area having chased their prey there for easier pickings. I believe dolphins have been recorded doing this, so why not marine reptiles?
Evolto had a change of heart and decided to pour his heart and soul into making good ol’ coffee.
I just want to say that immediately upon finishing Build the other day, I quickly grabbed a bunch of potential pfp screenshots (unsurprisingly mostly Evolt), and this one I'm using rn is one of my favourites ever. Why does it look like he's actually posing. I even had to put a cute snow app filter on it. Why is he so babygirl
(NOTE: THIS IS SO OUT OF CHARACTER FOR ME I HAVE NEVER SAID THE WORD BABYGIRL BEFORE BUT I CANNOT THINK OF ANY OTHER MORE FITTING WORD IM SORRY WHAT IS KAMEN RIDER DOING TO ME)
Anyway my #1 Build headcannon is that Evolt would use the :3 emoji
tag four blokes who do fuck all
Momotaros being a meme in three gifs or less ❤️
Bonus: the Momotaros meme
My savior, oh what a beautiful soul..
a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted
their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"
"Every writer"?
