Watchers

Tis time for bed here, as it always is when I make an update--

Just dropping by lest you begin fearing my demise!

I'm about to have a few illustration jobs clash, trip over each other and crush me, but no matter -- it's all good practice!

Otherwise, I seem to have gone back to my roots... and when I say that, I mean it quite literally. I look and feel like I've been hanging out with subterranean tubers. I've watched more TV shows and films in the past few weeks than I have in a decade. I'm very conscious of the fact I'm only cloaking myself in the cool, dark gloom of alternate realities so that I might somehow emerge into my own reality as a growing mushroom of inspired prosperousness. Thus far I've definitely achieved a mushroom-grade skin-tone.

And what all that roughly translates to is... I'm trying desperately to rub some creativity back into my numbed fingers and brain. Here's hoping it works.



I should do a livestream soon!

I MUST TELL YOU!
Okay, so I take French as one of my electives right? Yes I do. So, we have this massive text book that we use everyday that tells us about life in Paris sometimes, and has all the volcabulary and stuff. ANYWAY, the point is, I was flipping through the pages . . AND I CAME ACROSS AN ENTIRE SECTION ABOUT TINTIN. IN FRENCH. ALL THE CHARACTERS WERE THERE. I STARTED FANGIRLING IN THE MIDDLE OF CLASS.

The icon! It's changed! And, um, you're amazing and stuffs, and you make me grin like an idiot over some of your works (Sechs on the Styx- I have hunted the tumblr, but where shall be the plot-thing, for I am ridiculously curious and excited about it!). But I noticed the fantastic Waffen-ness and freaked and figured I may as well mention it and...yes. Going now, before I sound even more like a creeper.

I can't take my eyes off of your Vampire Chronicles' fanarts! they're awesome, and the characters are incredibly similar to how I imagine them. Your style really fits them, and Lestat makes me laugh so hard. would be great if you could draw more about these books :)

Ehm... would I be considered a stalker if I asked you if you are on Pottermore? ...I want friends... it's lonely over there...

Feel free to ignore me if I'm stepping over boundaries :)

Haha no I don't consider that stalkerish at all xDD I don't mind who has my username (it's WingLight29504, by the by) -- I haven't done anything on there yet, I've heard it's best to re-read the books as you go through it, yeah? So I'm waiting till I have the time / emotional resolve to re-read them xD

Have you spent much time on it? How're you finding it?

yay!

oh you don't really need to re-read them. I mean, if you only read them (well, the first at this point) once ten years ago and seen the film once and that's it... yeah read it again, but I'm sure it's not the case with you. The original material is awesome but you don't need to know the book back to front to understand it.
If you know what happens you're ok. It's designed for children so it's easy to follow.

I spend some time there yeah. It's pretty cool. Actually its awesome but I went through the Philosopher's Stone and it's still stuck there so now apart from duelling (which is great) and making potions there isn't much to do.

But they actually give you a wand and sort you, that is really amazing!

Ah, thank you so much for your patience! I think it would be quite painful to re-read the first few chapters after reading the latest ones.. it's certainly painful for me xD

Never the less, thank you for reading! (twice!) :heart:
