My mom, in the car, explicitly for my benefit: 'Road work ahead?'
Me: I SURE HOPE IT DOES
Me: I love you
Fun fact: Frogs are pretty easy to make! Here's my pattern:
Here's my best digital recreation;
So, the pattern is pretty simple. I'll explain the process and add this picture which will be explained later:
So!
Ingredience:
- Beans (or stuffing) I use black bean or small red beans but you can probably use whatever!
- Thread/needles (a machine is nice)
- Fabric (I'm using 25¢ a sheet felt, but you can use whatever you want, like literally you can use old sweater scraps)
- Buttons/embroidery thread if you want to add ~pizazz~
- The design
Steps:
1. Print/draw out the design in any size. Cut out the design in fabric twice (for a top and a bottom). The design itself already accounts for seam allowance, so your frog will be roughly the size of the blue line in the picture above.
2. Sew the two fabric pieces together, leaving a gap somewhere (I put it in the space between the two back legs). Make it pretty big!
3. Turn the frog inside out, to get rid of the nasty edges
4. Add buttons and cool stuff now if you're going to!
5. Stuff with beans/fabric to your liking. I use a funnel to get the beans in.
6. Once the boy is properly stuffed, hand-stitch up the hole. A ladder stitch is what I use, if you don't know what that is, you can look it up or just do whatever stitch you know/like.
7. Use needle to tuck loose thread edges into the seams if needed (it's exactly what it sounds like, just poke 'em in)
8. Your boi is complete! Throw him at your family members and say 'I made a frog!' (Recommended, not required)
9. Give him a little kiss on his fuzzy head and be proud of yourself! (required)
Patterns: cut
Colors: matched
Bois: pinned together
Reference boi: ready
Special eyes for the special boi: Ready
Sometimes I remember things about myself like that I have a chronic illness or that I'm part of an oppressed group or that I've actually been catcalled and I'm like oh worm I forgot about that
This is the first time anyone's tagged Thomas on one of my posts (I think) oh my god this was a barely coherent thought when I was half-asleep—
Janus’s light side name is Janan
Logan: "A pinch of salt." (grates it into Patton’s hand)
Patton: "Ah! I'm gonna throw it over my shoulder. Which one is it? Left or right?"
Logan: "I don't know—"
Patton: "Left!" (throws it over left shoulder)
Roman: "What happens if you get that wrong?"
Virgil: "I don't know. You kill God or something."
Roman: (laugh)
Virgil: "One's the devil, I know that much."
Logan: "Wow. Don't wanna make that mistake, do you?"
Y'all ever read a really good fic and lie on your bed making that squeal/whine noise in the back of your throat hugging a pillow while tears in the corners of your eyes dry because oh god it was so good and
"We— wait, when did it get so dark outside?”
"I fucked up here, didn’t I?”
“This is it. This tells us if we get to play at the festival, in front of people, or not. ...I can't open it.”
Roman competed at a few games, whined about how they were rigged, and then was immediately shown up by Virgil as he nailed them. He pouted until the next game, and then the cycle continued.
“I don't know about anyone else, but I feel like I’m pretty obvious about my sexuality."
“Are they in a cult?”
“Okay, I’m asking now: What else can you do? What other special powers do you have? What else are you incredibly good at?”
"Mine’s not as deep or anything, but I’ve never actually dated anyone. I have this reputation for being loved by everyone and having had a bunch of relationship experience, but I’ve never even kissed anyone before."
(What are you going to do, threaten them?) “No, I’ll have Remus threaten them, because he’s much more intimidating than me. I’m about as scary as a sprig of rosemary.”
"I’m scared that when anyone gets close, they'll realize they don't love me and just leave."
"Femboy" is a wonderful term. But I was thinking, what happens when you get older, and you're too old to be a 'boy' but too young to be an "Old Queen"? Are you just a "feminine-presenting adult male"?
So, allow me to propose a new term:
People really out here saying 'women can't be superheros (or in positions of power at all) because they're too emotional' and ignoring that Captain America: Civil War is all about two grown men starting a fight and splitting their team in two because they couldn't talk it out like civilized adults
Logan: Let me get this straight—
Patton: Good luck with that!
Logan: You made a two-layer lemon cake.
Patton: Yes.
Logan: It is not vegan or gluten-free, only dairy-free. It has eggs and wheat.
Patton: Yes.
Logan: Your mother is allergic to gluten, your brother is vegan and doesn't like lemon, your father isn't a huge fan of desserts.
Patton: Yes.
Logan: So you made an entire two-layer cake that only you can eat.
Patton: Yes.
Logan: And you made it how long ago?
Patton: Yesterday.
Logan: And you've eaten how much?
Patton: Half.
Logan: ...How.
Patton:
Remus: One cactus.
Patton: No. No, put the cactus down. No cacti in the pumpkin cookies.
He/they (both equally good)I love asks, requests, general interaction, and stuff like that!Mostly various fandom stuff, I'm just having a good time and enjoying myselfI hope I can make you smile :)
